Mushroom Tikka Masala
I have many readers who are vegans or vegetarians, and they would always request me to post more vegetarian dishes. So, today, we have Sala of Veggie Belly sharing this mushroom tikka masala recipe with us. Mushroom tikka masala is one of my favorite dishes when I have Indian buffet. The combination of fresh mushrooms and the treasure trove of exotic spices plus heavy cream is simply delicious. If you are a vegan or vegetarian, go check out Veggie Belly, a wonderful food blog packed with gorgeous food photography (click on the image above to view all the beautiful pictures) and tons of recipes. You will love it.
I've been reading Rasa Malaysia for several years, and I am so thrilled to be guest posting here! This spicy restaurant style mushroom tikka masala is something I make when my husband and I want a tasty, special meal. Think of this as a vegetarian version of chicken tikka masala. You can smoke this curry using this method, for an extra special touch…

Hi Bee, so happy to see vegetarian recipe here. This mushroom tikka masala recipe looks so good!!! yummy. Thanks veggiebelly, will check out your blog now.
Delicious! I never thought a substitute for this chicken recipe. I was so desperate to taste and after trying it out this weekend; I'm going to make it at least once a week. I cooked it in my all natural pure clay pot to make sure I get all the goodness of the recipe (nutrients). It was fantastic, my family and I loved it. My pot cooks the food with far-infrared heat emitted from the walls of the pot, let seasoning & spices penetrate deeper giving you a delicious food, perfectly cooked. I got mine from mecware.US (online)
What is kasoori methi? :/ is it just a spice?
Kasoori methi is a dried herb, with an earthy flavor. Its easily available at Indian stores. Substitute with cilantro.
wow..yummy..Bookmarked..will try this soon
That's what I was looking for! Veggie tikka masala! Perfect!
I've got mushrooms I'm going for it!
Love this recipe! I've made tofu and chicken tikka masala many times but never thought to sub in mushrooms. Can't wait to try it, thanks!
I can't find button mushrooms where I am. Can I use another ingredient? Potatoes?
Par-cooked potatoes will work, you can also use eggplant, fried tofu or paneer. I also like baby corn in tikka masala.
What a gorgeous post! Love tikka masala.
This looks delicious! Tikka Masala is one of my favourite dishes. I often use crimini mushrooms in mine as they have a little bit more flavour than the white.
– Brittany
thank you for this! I love tikka masala, but no longer eat meat. I never realized mushrooms could be such a good substitute. can't wait to try this!
I am a big fan of Salaa and I follow her blog regularly. This recipe really rocks :)
I'm a huge fan and also friend of Sala's. This curry looks delicious, as do all of the things I find on her site. Great guest post!
What a gorgeous post! Love tikka masala.
what if you want plain tikka masala. not with mushrooms or eggplant or potatoes does the same recipe work without the mushroom parts?
This is delicious. We are not veggies but do like a meat free curry from time to time. I added a little more chilli (1 whole teaspoon to the gravy) as we like it a bit spiky! The flavour is lovely and it is very quick to prepare. Thanks for posting.
The recipe is great!!! I made it last night and my husband loved it!! Thank you!!!!!
I tried your mushroom tikka masala it comes out very good.But i wanted to ask ,at which step should i add salt …i added in marinting mushroom but at the time of frying it loosened out lot of water..although it dried when i put high flame but still i want to ask this that when will be adding salt be good.
I tried this today. it turned excellent. I just added a 1/2 cup milk for gravy… simple yet delicious. Thanks for this awesome recipe.
hi, like this recipe. want to try. but what is green or red bell pepper, greek yogurt and where it will be available.
loved your recipe and i am gonna try this recipe today, you made my day with this mushroom tikka masala. Thanks for sharing

Outdoor Fun
The summer season is the best time for most outdoor activities. With the great sunshine and gentle breezes of the season, there are a million things to do outside, from hanging out at the beach or pool, playing soccer, or even hiking to reading a book in the shade of a tree. There are even places where summer skiing is a popular pastime.
However, outdoor fun doesn't mean you can throw caution to the wind. Sunburn, dehydration and bug bites can put a kink in your activities. Here are a few tips to follow to make sure you'll have the time of your life while experiencing some summer fun in the great outdoors.
Here Comes the Sun
Sun can be good for you! It helps your body produce vitamin D, which helps your body absorb calcium. It's also a great mood enhancer . . . don't you feel more cheerful on a sunny day than on a rainy day?
But too much sun exposure can also lead to skin cancer. And too much tanning can also cause premature wrinkles. You definitely need to protect yourself when you are going out into the sun. Here are a few hints to protect your skin:
• Avoid the sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when the sun's rays are the most intense.
• Apply waterproof sunscreen (with an SPF rating of 15 or higher) at least 20 minutes prior to sun exposure and re-apply after swimming or heavy perspiration.
• If you are allergic to PABA, use a PABA-free or PABA-substitute sunscreen.
• Sand, concrete and water can all reflect the sun's rays onto your skin. Sitting in the shade doesn't guarantee protection from the sun.
• Wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from harmful ultraviolet rays.
• Cover up with a wide-brim hat, long-sleeved shirts and long pants.
How to Do a Monthly Skin Self-Exam After a Bath:
• In a well-lighted room, use a full-length mirror and a hand mirror to examine the front, back, right and left sides of your body.
• Look under your arms, on your forearms and backs of your hands and palms.
• Check the backs of your legs and buttocks. Examine your feet, including your between your toes and on the soles.
• Part your hair and examine your scalp and the back of your neck.
• Look for red patches on your skin and sores that don't heal.
• Check moles and note any changes in color, shape, border, sensation, surface or size. If you notice any change, see your doctor or dermatologist immediately.
Beat the Heat
Having all that fun in the outdoors can lead to heat stroke and heat exhaustion if you're not careful. By the time you are feeling thirsty, you are already slightly dehydrated. Combine that with heat and you'll get a bad situation.
Signs of Heat Exhaustion:
• dizziness, fatigue, faintness, headache
• skin that is pale and clammy
• rapid and weak pulse
• fast and shallow breathing
• muscle cramps
• intense thirst
Causes of Heat Exhaustion:
• insufficient water intake
• insufficient salt intake
• deficiency in the production of sweat
Signs of Heat Stroke:
• often preceded by heat exhaustion and its symptoms
• hot, dry, flushed skin
• no sweating
• high body temperature
• rapid heartbeat
• confusion
• loss of consciousness
Causes of Heat Stroke:
• overexposure to extreme heat
• a breakdown of your body's heat-regulating mechanism (the body becomes overheated to a dangerous degree)
How to Prevent Heat Exhaustion/Stroke:
• wear light, loose-fitting clothing in hot weather
• drink water often, don't wait until you are thirsty
• drink extra water if you sweat heavily. If urine output decreases, increase your water intake
• work out in the early morning or late afternoon when it is cooler
• if you become overheated while indoors, improve your ventilation by opening a window, using a fan or air conditioner. This promotes sweat evaporation, which cools the skin.
• acclimate yourself to hot weather
• avoid alcohol
What to Do if Someone Suffers Heat Exhaustion/Stroke:
• If someone with symptoms is very hot and not sweating: Call 911 right away for an ambulance. Cool the person rapidly. Use a cold-water bath or wrap the person in wet sheets.
• If someone is faint but sweating: Call 911 right away for an ambulance (except in mild cases). Give the person liquids (water, soft drinks or fruit juice). Do not give salt pills.
Wet and Wild
Going to the beach is a year-round activity that many people enjoy. However, the beach is an extra popular spot during the summer. Don't let the beauty of the water fool you, however. Keep the following tips in mind to enjoy the water and be safe at the same time.
Safety Tips at the Beach:
• Always swim or surf at a beach patrolled by lifeguards.
• Always swim under supervision or with a friend.
• Read and obey all signs, especially those that tell you to stay OUT of the water, i.e. high surf, jelly fish warnings, etc.
• If you are unsure of the conditions of the beach you are at, ask the lifeguard on duty.
• Don't swim immediately after eating a meal. Wait an hour or two.
• Don't swim under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
• Conditions of the water do change regularly, so check the conditions before you enter the water.
• If you get into trouble in the water, don't panic. Signal for help, float and wait for assistance.
• Float with a rip current or undertow. Don't swim against it.
Safety Tips at the Pool:
• Supervision is the key to prevent pool drownings. Supervision means constant watching and not occasionally glancing at your child. Never take your eyes off your child.
• Always obey the pool's safety rules and listen to the instructions of the pool lifeguards.
• Play safe. Always walk (not run) around the pool, and check for others before jumping into the water.
Safety Tips at Home:
• Supervise your children. If you need to leave the water area, take your child with you.
• Install fencing around spas and swimming pools. Make sure that the gate is always locked and that there is nothing leaning on the fence that could help a child climb over it.
• Install lifesaving equipment near your pool.
• Empty baths, basins, sinks, troughs and wading pools immediately after using them.
• Securely cover liquid-filled buckets or keep them out of the reach of children.
Hypothermia is a condition in which the body's internal or core temperature drops below the normal 35 degrees Celsius. Anyone can suffer from hypothermia and one of the chief causes is being in or near water. Signs and symptoms of hypothermia vary. In mild hypothermia, people will initially feel cool and start shivering. They might be clumsy and appear uncoordinated, even becoming irrational and confused. Often they will deny there is a problem.
If cooling continues, people will eventually lose consciousness, collapse and die. The condition is avoidable, usually by following a few simple rules:
• Always wear suitable clothing when in or near the water to minimize body heat loss, i.e. wear a wetsuit when snorkeling.
• Wear a hat. You can lose up to one-third of your body heat through your head.
• Eat regularly since hunger and fatigue increase the risk of hypothermia.
• Change your plans if the conditions are too rough, especially if the wind is very strong. You can always go on your outing on another day.
• Seek shelter and wrap up warmly if you or someone else is getting cold.
Hypothermia Symptoms:
98.6° F Normal Body Core Temperature
96.8° F Feel Cold; Still alert and able to help oneself. Numbness in the legs and arms.
95° F Mild Hypothermia; Shivering
93.2° F Clumsy, irrational and confused. May appear drunk. Slurred speech. Denies problem.
91.4° F Moderate Hypothermia; Muscle stiffness
89.6° F Severe Hypothermia; Shivering stops. Collapse.
87.8° F Semi-conscious
86° F Critical Hypothermia; Unconscious. No response to pain. Skin is cold, may be blue/grey in color.
84.2° F Slow pulse and breathing; may be difficult to detect.
82.4° F Cardiac Arrest; No obvious pulse or breathing. Pupils dilated. May appear dead.
Take a Hike
Hiking is a great way to get a good cardiovascular workout and take in some great scenery at the same time. Trails range from easy to difficult and it is important not to try to do too much too soon. Consult trail guides and experts before taking on a trail for the first time. Use the following tips to make your hike enjoyable and worry-free.
• Never hike alone.
• Tell a friend/family member where you are going and when you will be returning.
• Don't start out too late in the day. Most of us underestimate how long a hike will take. Climbing over rocks, around trees and up hills will slow you down. Allow 30 minutes for each mile, plus an extra 30 minutes for every 1,000 feet in elevation you will be covering.
• Bring plenty of food and water. You can easily become dehydrated on a hot day. Bring at least a quart of water on short hikes and two quarts of water on long hikes. DO NOT DRINK ANY STREAM WATER. The water may be contaminated and you may be at risk for leptospirosis, which is a potentially fatal disease.
• Think twice about swimming in streams. You can also get leptospirosis if you have open cuts or scratches on your skin and you swim in contaminated water.
• Stay on the trail or be at risk of getting lost.
• Do not hike in narrow canyons or gulches when it looks like rain. Flash floods have killed hikers in the past. If you are hiking in a narrow canyon or gulch and it starts to rain, turn back immediately. If a stream begins to rise before you can leave the canyon, go to higher ground and wait. Do not try to cross or out-race a swiftly flowing stream.
• Bring a rain jacket and a sweater on long ridge hikes. It can get very windy, cold and wet atop a mountain ridge. Staying warm will help prevent hypothermia (see "Summer Chill" for an explanation of hypothermia).
• Wear appropriate clothing. Good hiking boots will help support your ankles. If you are on a stream hike with a lot of rock hopping, wear tabis. A walking stick may also be helpful for balance when crossing streams. If you are going on a longer hike with overgrown sections along the way, long pants and gloves will help you avoid cuts and scratches.
• Bring a cellular phone in case you get lost; however, be aware that cellular phones will not work where there is thick vegetation.
• Obey all signs and warnings.
• Include a first-aid kit with your supplies.

NY: C. Anthony 32 Pts, 9 Reb, 3 Ast, 2 Stl
NEW YORK -- Carmelo Anthony hung from the rim, the helpless defender who tried to stop his dunk lying on the court below after falling down.
Pretty soon, Anthony's jumper was falling, too.
Once that happened, the New York Knicks blew away the Indiana Pacers with a performance that resembled something from earlier this season, not this series.
More Knicks-Pacers Coverage
Looking as much a leader as ever, Carmelo Anthony brought the Knicks together in a Game 2 blowout of Indiana to even the series, Ian O'Connor writes. Story
Both teams have their flaws that can cost them games, but Indiana couldn't overcome its weak spots in Game 2, Brian Windhorst writes. Story
• Radio: Stephen A. Smith | Mike & Mike
• Rapid Reaction | Legler: Knicks sharp
• Radio: Colin Cowherd | Quinn Buckner
• Knicks Blog | ESPNNewYork.com
Anthony scored 32 points, 16 during a 30-2 New York onslaught in the second half, and the Knicks beat the Pacers 105-79 on Tuesday night to even the Eastern Conference semifinals at one game.
"I think for the most part from the start of the game and throughout the whole game, I think we played with a sense of urgency today," Anthony said. "We played the way we've been playing as far as competing at the highest level."
Iman Shumpert added 15 points, including a sensational follow dunk in the first half, and Raymond Felton scored 14 as the Knicks turned a close game into a blowout over the final 15 minutes.
Paul George scored 20 points for the Pacers, who had a two-point lead and momentum when coach Frank Vogel called timeout with a little more than 3 minutes left in the third quarter.
By the time the Pacers got on the board in the final period, the Knicks had opened a 26-point advantage.
"The fourth quarter we just defensively, we picked up," Knicks coach Mike Woodson said. "We kept getting stop after stop and then we would rebound the ball and get it up and our offense began to flow like old times. It was kind of nice to see."
Game 3 is Saturday at Indianapolis.
It was the first time the Knicks scored 100 points in a playoff game since June 9, 1999, when they beat the Pacers 101-94. It was New York's largest margin of victory in the postseason since a 109-75 rout of Detroit on April 24, 1992, according to information provided by ESPN Stats and Info to the Knicks.
Running Away With It
The Knicks' Game 2 victory over the Pacers came courtesy of a massive 36-4 run New York went on from 3:38 in the third quarter to 3:09 in the fourth. Here's a look at the stats during that stretch.
|Top scorer
|2 with 2
|Anthony 16
David West scored 13 points for the Pacers, who committed 21 turnovers that led to 32 points, negating their height advantage that loomed so large in their Game 1 victory.
Indiana had trailed most of the night before taking a 64-62 lead on George Hill's 3-pointer with 3:28 left in the third quarter that capped a 10-4 run, the Pacers seeming to have all the momentum.
Vogel then called timeout with a little more than 3 minutes left and subbed out center Roy Hibbert.
Seeing the middle open, Anthony came back attacking, first with a drive and then a dunk while drawing a foul that knocked over Hibbert's replacement, Jeff Pendergraph, and the game was never the same.
"It was our timeout," Vogel said. "I usually use that situation to put something in while we have the ball."
New York closed the period on a 10-2 run, Pablo Prigioni opened the fourth with a 3-pointer and a jumper in the lane, drawing chants of "Pablo! Pablo!" and then Anthony put it away.
He hit a jumper and a 3-pointer, and after Tyson Chandler's follow dunk, the NBA's scoring leader converted a three-point play and drilled another 3-pointer before another basket by Chandler made it 92-66, extending the run to 30-2.
"Melo just caught fire," George said.
Tyler Hansbrough got the Pacers on the board with two free throws with 4:48 left, and the Pacers finally made a field goal when reserve Orlando Johnson hit a 3-pointer with 3:07 to go after Vogel had started emptying his bench.
Prigioni and Kenyon Martin finished with 10 points apiece as the Knicks endured another dreadful game from Sixth Man of the Year J.R. Smith, who was 3 of 15 for eight points.
Anthony had shot 35 for 110 over his previous four games but broke out of his slump Tuesday, going 13 of 26 and adding nine rebounds as the Knicks, pummeled on the boards in Indiana's 102-95 victory in Game 1, finished with a 37-35 advantage.
Indiana had a 44-30 advantage on the boards Saturday. The Game 1 winner won all of the six series these teams played between 1993-00, but the Knicks refused to panic, with Woodson not considering a change to a bigger lineup to match the Pacers' size.
It wasn't needed.
"I think we just made a point to team rebound," Chandler said.
The Knicks scored seven straight points midway through the first quarter and led 29-20 at the end of the period. But unlike in Game 1, they extended the lead for much of the second.
They got the lead to 11 a couple of times early in the period, once emphatically when Shumpert darted into the lane when Chris Copeland shot a 3-pointer from the other side of the floor, went unchecked toward the rim and grabbed the rebound with one hand and threw it down powerfully, a play that had the Madison Square Garden crowd still buzzing a few minutes later.
"I think I was trying to make a statement," said Shumpert, who didn't even play until midseason after tearing his ACL in last year's playoff opener. "I just wanted to win this game real bad. We needed this game."
Shumpert's jumper late in the quarter capped an 8-0 run and extended the Knicks' lead to 47-34 with 3:46 remaining, but West made a basket before George scored the final six points, his 3-pointer cutting it to 47-42 with 1:16 left, and neither team scored the rest of the way.
Indiana committed 12 turnovers that led to 20 points in the half.
Game notes
The Pacers' only previous Game 1 win in New York had been exactly 18 years earlier, when Reggie Miller scored eight points in the closing seconds to stun the Knicks in a 107-105 victory. Miller worked this game as an analyst for TNT, talking to Knicks fan Spike Lee before the game. ... Woodson said Amar'e Stoudemire had no setbacks Tuesday after playing in 3-on-3 scrimmages Monday, and the hope is still for him to return from right knee surgery on Saturday. ... Indiana has a 19-18 lead in total games won in the playoff rivalry.

Around The Association
MVP: Carmelo Anthony made nine of his 15 shots after halftime while scoring 22 of his game-high 32 points. He did his damage at the rim, from behind the arc and at midrange. Indiana had no answer.
X factor: The Knicks' lead was six early in the fourth quarter when Pablo Prigioni knocked down his first 3-pointer. The arena got loud. When he hit a floater that put New York up 11 on the next play, Madison Square Garden erupted. Prigioni opened the floodgates, and Indiana wouldn't recover.
That was historic: Basketball is always a game of runs -- but never like this. The Knicks scored 20 fourth-quarter points before the Pacers put a single point on the board. Going back even further, New York outscored Indiana 36-4 during a 12-minute stretch. It was the rarest of onslaughts.
Research Notes
Through 3 quarters, the Pacers were finding success near the basket, going 17-of-22 inside 5 feet. But in the 4th quarter, the Pacers were 0-of-1 from that distance. Indiana went away from taking advantage of its size, which had worked well in Game 1, when David West and Roy Hibbert combined for 8-of-11 inside 5 feet.[+]

|Wilin Rosario broke out in a big way for the Rockies.
Apparently it worked. The club came out and looked more relaxed at the plate. The Rockies had 10 runs before the start of the 4th inning. The scoring was highlighted by Wilin Rosario, who busted out with a two run double in the bottom of the 1st inning to score the second and third runs of the game.
Rosario returned to the plate in the 2nd inning and launched a home run into the left field seats with two outs.
The double was a welcomed sight for Rosario not just because of the result, but also because of where the ball went. Rosario lined the pitch from Francisco Liriano down the right field line. For the past six weeks, the catcher has been struggling with hitting the ball the other way. He has been waving at pitches on the outside half of the plate, opening his hips and trying to pull the ball.
Rosario finished the night a triple shy of the cycle, driving in four runs and helping the Rockies forget a miserable road trip.
Todd Helton also notched two hits and an RBI, as his swing continues to look better with more consistent playing time.
The game was a laugher, and gave Jorge De La Rosa what looked like a free win. After the way he has pitched over the course of the season, and the lack of run support he has received, he deserved a free-bee.
Although, it would be easy to forget that the game could have been much different. De La Rosa gave up four straight base hits to start the game. He was able to pick off Starling Marte, who led off the game with a single, then he gave up three straight hits. With one out and the bases loaded, De La Rosa was in trouble. However, a pitcher isn't defined by how he pitches with the bases empty, a pitcher is defined by how he deals with adversity. The Rockies lefty showed why he is a true ace.
Instead of allowing the inning to get out of control, De La Rosa went to work. He didn't panic, he used seven pitches to strike out the dangerous Pedro Alvarez, getting him to swing over an 84 MPH splitter that ducked right under his bat. He then got Gaby Sanchez to ground to second base on an 0-2 count.
Early in his career, De La Rosa may have let that inning get out of control. As his career has progressed, however, he has become so good in those type of situations that it is almost expected that he is going to find a way to wiggle out of it. However, getting out of the inning without even giving up one run is pretty impressive.
What De La Rosa did was allow his offense to go win him the game. The game could have swayed the other way, but the Rockies ace kept the Pirates off of the scoreboard and made the Rockies big inning a big lead instead of digging out of a hole.
If the Rockies don't know what they have with Jorge De La Rosa, it is a real shame. The lefty has been phenomenal in his return and an extremely valuable member of the club. If the team doesn't offer him an extension in the off-season, they are making a big mistake.
The Rockies had a team meeting before the game. Sometimes team meetings in baseball can be overrated, as they were when the club seemed to have one every Sunday in 2012. However, every now and then, it allows a manager to get everyone on the same page. It creates an opportunity to hit the reset button and start fresh. Undoubtedly, the idea of being contenders was most likely removed from the Rockies shoulders and the idea of finishing strong was probably promoted. That is pure speculation, but it would seem to make sense.
The idea of contending is long gone. The reality is, this team probably wasn't good enough to contend from the beginning. They are a talented team, and they have been performing far below the level that they should be competing at, but to think that this team should have come from the season they had a year ago and be better than the Dodgers was probably more than they should have had to shoulder.
However, that doesn't excuse poor play. That doesn't excuse sloppy baseball consisting of terrible at-bats, and lifeless defense. This team should be in a far better place than they are as they enter the middle of August. The Rockies have seven weeks left in their season to prove that 2013 is a far better year than 2012. It is a chance for them to show that they aren't going to quit. They have to prove to fans that they still have the desire to get better and be in a good place for the 2014 campaign.
The Rockies have seven more weeks to progress. They have to start making up ground because their is certainly a talent gap between them and the Dodgers. They have until the start of 2014 to get better and bridge that gap as much as possible.

When you first learned about your high cholesterol, your healthcare provider probably discussed several numbers with you. That's because your blood cholesterol is actually made up of several parts: your total cholesterol, your low density lipoproteins, or LDL; your high density lipoproteins, or HDL; and your triglycerides.
LDL is the cholesterol that clings to the walls of our blood vessels and forms plaque. This is the bad cholesterol.
HDL does not cling to blood vessel walls. In fact, it may even help remove some of the bad cholesterol. HDL is the good cholesterol.
Triglycerides are another type of fat found in the blood. These, too, can build up on artery walls.
High cholesterol is a major risk factor for heart disease, and specific cholesterol goals may depend on the presence of other heart disease risk factors like high blood pressure, smoking, being overweight, or a family history of heart disease or diabetes
In most cases, adults should aim for a total cholesterol level below 200.
When it comes to your LDL, lower numbers are the best numbers and the more risk factors you have, the lower your LDL goal is going to be.
If you have no risk factors for heart disease, or just one risk factor, an LDL level of 160 or below is a good goal.
If you have two or more risk factors, you should aim for below 130.
If you have heart disease, diabetes, or a very high risk of suffering a heart attack within the next ten years, your LDL level should be between 70 and 100, or maybe even lower.
When it comes to your HDL, the higher the better. At the very least, everyone should aim for an HDL level above 40, but a level above 60 is even better because it can greatly reduce your risk of heart disease and stroke.
A good goal for your triglyceride level is below 150.
Getting your cholesterol levels to where you want them involves more than just looking at the specific numbers. Many factors affect them, including: age, sex, family history, other health factors, and lifestyle. All of these things are looked at when determining the best treatment plan for you.

Astray on the Road to Bag End
1. Astray on the Road to Bag End
Thorin was annoyed. Not only had his meeting with the Seven Kingdoms gone against him, with not even one dwarf lord being willing to sanction his quest, but now he found himself wandering the streets and lanes of a rustic village -- in the Shire, of all places! -- looking for the residence of a hobbit named Baggins. Yes, he was definitely annoyed.
And lost, it would seem.
"Confound that wizard!" Thorin growled as he stamped about the town square, peering at the side streets which branched off in all directions. Each street was lined with long, low building adorned with round doors, one looking remarkably like another in the dim light of evening. "I wish I had never approached Gandalf about helping with this quest to return to Erebor! By enlisting his aid, I am now forced into this meeting with a hobbit who will no doubt run away in terror at the very mention of a dragon. It is quite impossible that such a one could be the burglar we need for our venture. The people of this country are all cowards! Not one will face me long enough to even let me ask for directions!"
Thorin glowered fiercely at a passing hobbit farmer, who took one look at the dwarf's angry face and scurried off in the opposite direction.
"Confound that Gandalf!" Thorin muttered a second time. "He claimed it would be a simple matter to find this hobbit's home. If it is so simple, then why am I not finding it? Where is it? These dwellings all look alike to me!"
He had calculated his journey from the Blue Mountains properly to arrive in time for the arranged meeting with his fellow dwarves and the wizard, but somehow he had taken a wrong turn where the Old North Road ran through a town with the absurd name of Nobottle, and it had taken him some time to get back on track to the right road and his destination. He reached Hobbiton without further incident but then once again found himself astray and at a loss.
Thorin scanned his surroundings once more, then choosing one of the lanes at random, turned and started walking. But before he had taken more than a few steps, his way was unexpectedly blocked. A female hobbit stood before him, brandishing a stout black umbrella; the frown on her face was fiercely haughty.
"Dwarves!" she scoffed resentfully. "We're overrun with them! But why? That's what I want to know!" She shook her umbrella angrily under Thorin's nose. "What business do you have here, anyway, I'd like to know? Why are there so many of you? You'd better not be making trouble up there at Bag End, wrecking the place with your dwarvish antics! What's he up to now, I wonder, letting the likes of you in the door? Humph!"
Thorin stood his ground in the face of the angry hobbit, but had no opportunity to say a word in his own defense or to question her further about her references to other dwarves, Bag End, or the unnamed hobbit who was "up to something". With a shake of her fist and a final wave of her umbrella, the hobbit stamped off without waiting for an answer. Thorin could hear her shrill complaining recede into the distance as she continued berating him and his kind, even after dismissing him so summarily.
"What was that all about?" Thorin muttered in disgust. "Impertinence! She gave me no opportunity to speak or question her further! She seems to have seen the others; no doubt she could have told me something about the place I seek, if only I could have stayed the flow of her complaining."
"Nay, Master Dwarf!" said a voice behind him. "You'd not be gettin' any answers from her! Not from Lobelia, no, sir!"
Thorin turned sharply to see a middle-aged hobbit leaning against a wall, watching him with an amused expression on his face.
"And why might that be, if I may ask?" Thorin asked, as politely as he could manage despite his growing impatience.
"Well, of course you can ask!" the hobbit replied smugly. "And I'll be glad to tell you. That there was Lobelia Sackville-Baggins, and she's a character and no mistake! She always seems to be angry and complainin' about somethin', if you take my meaning. She'd speak sharply to the king himself, I warrant, if she didn't like the way he looked at her!"
"I see," replied Thorin carefully, trying to hold his rising temper in check. "Baggins, you said her name was? In truth, I seek someone named Baggins...."
"Maybe so," the amused hobbit interrupted, "but it ain't her, I bet. She's a Sackville-Baggins, like I said. She's cousin by marriage to Mister Bilbo Baggins, but she's not exactly fond of him, if you know what I mean! She's got her eye on Bag End, that's for sure and certain, hopin' to get her hands on it some day when Master Bilbo moves on, with her Otho being his heir and all. So she's none too pleased about seein' all them foreign types -- them dwarves, I mean -- makin' their way up to The Hill this evenin' and messin' with the place, as she puts it."
"Can you direct me to this residence of Master Baggins?" Thorin asked, relieved to at last be getting some information about the hobbit Baggins.
"Of course I can," came the answer. "I'm the gardener up at Bag End, ain't I? Holman's the name. Holman Greenhand, at your service!"
Thorin bowed politely to Holman. "Thorin Oakenshield at yours."
"Come on then, Master Thorin," Holman said, happily clapping the dwarf on the arm and ignoring Thorin's glare. "I'll put you on the right track. Wouldn't want you to get lost now, I expect they're all waiting for you up there. I figured that's where you were heading, anyway, seein' as how there's others like you there already. Seems like Master Bilbo's havin' a regular old party tonight. A party for dwarves, that is!"
"Indeed!" replied Thorin, trying hard not to be impatient. "If you would be so kind as to lead the way, Master Holman...."
Thorin had little doubt that Holman Greenhand would lead him truly, yet it was not until he saw the glowing mark upon the door that he was finally certain he had reached his destination. But instead of being relieved at being shown the way, Thorin was irritated that he had been lost in the first place and forced to ask for directions. After his meetings with the cantankerous Lobelia and the garrulous Holman, he was even more annoyed with Hobbits in general, and in no mood to be charitable. He scowled fiercely at the round green door marked with Gandalf's special rune.
"This had better be worth my trouble, Gandalf," he grumbled as he pounded loudly upon the door. "This hobbit of yours had better be worth it!"
"Gandalf! I thought you said this place would be easy to find. I lost my way -- twice!

13. Why do I have to place a hold for an eBook? If these are electronic, why aren't there unlimited copies available?
Most publishers require that library eBooks are offered to only one person per copy at a time, similar to how physical books are checked out. They believe this restriction helps maintain their profitability, as unlimited eBooks available for free from the library would hurt sales of their eBooks through commercial sites.
14. How many eBooks can I place on hold at a time?
You may place up to 5 items on hold at a time from the SJCPLS Digital Media collection. Please note that this total includes any combination of both eBooks and eAudiobooks, but is completely separate from the hold limit for physical library items.
15. How will I know when my eBook hold is available for me?
When an OverDrive eBook title you have placed on hold becomes available, you will receive an email at the email address you specified when placing the hold. You will then have 3 days (72 hours) from the time the email is sent to log in to the SJCPLS Digital Media site and checkout and download your eBook. If you do not checkout your eBook within the 3-day timeframe, your hold will be cancelled and the title will be sent to the next person on the hold list.
16. I don't want to wait — how do I find eBooks that are available now, with no holds?
To find eBooks that are immediately available, with no hold list, make sure to check the box labeled "Only show titles with available copies" when searching the SJCPLS Digital Media site.
17. Is there a way to keep track of which eBooks I've already read?
Neither SJCPLS nor OverDrive (our eBook service provider) keeps record of which digital items you have previously downloaded. However, you may find it helpful to go back to each title's page on the SJCPLS Digital Media site after you finish it and give it a rating (1 to 5 stars). You will then be able to select the "Rated Titles" link in the "My Digital Account" section to display a list of the titles you have rated (and therefore read) in the past.
18. Can I download library eBooks to my Kindle / Nook / iPad / other eReader device?
Yes, you can download library eBooks to many popular eReader devices, including Kindles, Nooks, iPads, and more. Please check OverDrive's Device Resource Center for a complete list of compatible devices. For instructions on how to download library eBooks to various eReader devices, please see our eBooks & eReader Help page.
19. I heard that library books don't work on the Amazon Kindle. Is this true?
Library eBooks were previously unavailable for the Amazon Kindle due to the proprietary file format used by Amazon. However, as of September 2011, Kindle eBooks are now available through OverDrive. Simply choose the Kindle Book format under the eBook you select. Note that some eBooks in the Kindle format require a USB connection which means they cannot be downloaded via Wi-Fi.
20. How do I download eBooks to my eReader?
Please see our eBooks & eReader Help page for step-by-step guides to downloading library eBooks to a variety of popular eReader devices.
21. Can I download eBooks at the library using the library computers?
Unfortunately, you cannot download eBooks using the public computers in our library due to software security restrictions. However, if you are able to bring your own laptop, tablet, or smartphone to the library, you are welcome to use our free high-speed wireless internet to download eBooks onto your own device.
22. What is the difference between Kindle aBooks, EPUB eBooks, and PDF eBooks?
Kindle Books are specifically formatted for use by the Amazon Kindle and Kindle apps. Please select this format if you wish to read the eBook on one of these devices. They are not compatible with any other eReader.
EPUB eBooks have reflowable text, which means that if you resize the text or change the font of the eBook, the text will "reflow" to fill the screen. This makes EPUB eBooks the optimal choice for reading eBooks on small screens.
PDF eBooks preserve the layout of complex documents, including any charts and illustrations. However, because of this they do not "reflow" their text as well as EPUB eBooks. Therefore, you may notice page breaks in odd places when reading these eBooks on an eReader device. Because they are not optimized for small screens, PDF eBooks cannot be downloaded using the OverDrive Media Console for mobile devices.
Check OverDrive's Device Resource Center to see what formats are compatible with your particular device. (Note that EPUB and PDF eBooks are not compatible with the Amazon Kindle.)
23. What do I do if I receive an error message or need help?
Fill out this online form or contact your local branch.

Classroom presentations are often coupled with practical, hands-on exercises giving students the opportunity to apply the new technology, theories and skills learned in the classroom to situations faced by today's law enforcement agencies. IPTM is a member of The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility's Traffic Safety Advisory Committee.

By having both arms working together in a fixed plane, the exercise feels better controlled for a comfortable and secure training movement.WORK MORE THAN THE LATSThe VR1 overhead pivot closely matches a standard descending path of motion that trains either for row or... for rear delt movements.TRAIN THE WHOLE BACKThe foot bar promotes torso stabilization consistent with proper lifting technique. This means the lower back is working as a stabilizer which strengthens it at the same time. The adjustable chest pad can provide even greater stability if desired. However, the VR1 foot bars mean that unwanted pressure on the chest can be avoided (particularly of concern for women).

Companies everywhere are rethinking risk management in the light of new market realities, according to PwC's 2011 global risk survey, which also breaks down results by region.
When global trade, financial markets, and supply chains are inextricably linked in a landscape of complexity and uncertainty, risks can come swiftly and unexpectedly—with significant potential impacts on companies' operations, reputations, and even survival.
In response, forward-looking companies are continuing to shift their risk management focus in fundamental strategic ways, incorporating and integrating a risk-aware, top-down culture across departments and functions.
That's one of the results of our survey of more than 1,000 executives and risk management leaders with businesses worldwide, carried out in November 2011—supplemented by in-depth personal interviews with top executives from a range of organizations.
Other key findings:
With high unemployment, rising financial insecurity, and escalating social problems across many of the world's markets, nearly 60% of executives see regulatory risk as a major threat to their business in the year ahead. And there's significant work to be done: fewer than half of respondents feel that the role of internal audit fits well with the broader risk management efforts of the organization.

I hope Java 7 and Java 8 are nicer.
I only used Java 6, and I think C# / .NET are much nicer than Java.
It is too bad that Android development is stuck on Java 6 and cant use more modern Java 7.
Phoronix: Java JDK 8 Developer Preview Released
Oracle has released the first JDK 8 Developer Preview builds for Windows, OS X, Linux, and Solaris platforms...
I hope Java 7 and Java 8 are nicer.
I only used Java 6, and I think C# / .NET are much nicer than Java.
It is too bad that Android development is stuck on Java 6 and cant use more modern Java 7.
Simple C++ Qt application takes less than 5 MB of private memory, but usage of similar Java application can grow up to 150 MB of private memory.
150 MB isn't too much on machine with 4 GB or more RAM, but 10 such Java applications will use 1500 MB of private memory which is ridiculous compared to 50 MB with 10 C++ applications.
Maybe it's a placebo effect (OOH, Shiny!), but I recently upgraded from JDK 6 to JDK 7 for a project at work, and it seems to at least start/stop the web application server much faster on my machine.... (JBoss AS 6, Core i7-2600k, 8GB DDR3, Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit).
And there's a bunch of new warnings thrown by the compiler that I have to go and fix now...
The problem with C is that it won't do anything for you. With C, you need to worry about things like allocating and deallocating memory, things that Java just does for you. Given how error prone memory management can be in C (tools like valgrind help), a managed language like Java makes more sense for most applications. Java's compile once, run anywhere model also makes it much easier to manage a cross-platform application. Low level compiled languages like C and Fortran have their place, but to rule out Java because it is "bloated" is just being silly.
ps: I'll start respecting Microsoft's opinions when they support modern standards (no C99 support 14 years later is beyond ridiculous).

Camarones en Salsa (Shrimp in Salsa)
I was looking for a quick meal for a busy weekend and I remembered seeing this post on Shrimp a la Diabla. How could I resist shrimp in a spicy sauce? This dish is pretty much just shrimp cooked in a hot and spicy tomato based sauce. You can add the heat however you like. I used some fresh ground chili peppers, but you could also use chopped chipotles in adobo or some kind of chili sauce, etc. Serve with rice and or refried beans etc. I was in such a hurry that I forgot to add the cilantro.
1 teaspoon oil
1 onions (chopped)
1 clove garlic (chopped)
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 cup tomato sauce
juice of 1/2 a lime
1/2 teaspoon brown sugar (optional, to balance out the heat of the chili and the sourness of the lime juice)
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 pound shrimp
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1. Heat the oil in a pan.
2. Add the onions and saute until tender, about 3-5 minutes.
3. Add the garlic and chili powder and saute until fragrant, about a minute.
4. Add the tomato sauce, lime juice, salt and pepper and mix.
5. Add the shrimp and cook for a few minutes on each side.
6. Add the cilantro and remove from the heat.

SR540Beaver commented02-14-2013, 10:50 AMEditing a commentDLister,
It will return once they work out how to keep it safeguarded.
I like the change. It looks nice.
A few things.
1) I have posted in this and other strings before, but do not see my post in the thread. Some sort of glitch.
2) My big "want" is to be able to log in and quickly skim through the thread titles that I have not read, or that have new postes in them since I have marked everything as read. With that in mind...
a) What exactly is the link" Click Here to view active topics since your last visit (last 24 hours and before) >>" doing for me? Looking at 24 hour old posts, or looking at posts since my last visit?
b) I see no way to "mark all threads as read".
c) I don't like that this lonk sends me to a page that makes me read the entire first post of the tread. i would much rather just see the title, then if I'm interested, i could click in. Also would be nice if clicking into said thread would take me straight to the first "un-read" post.
3) another forum that I frequent, for non scouting stuff.... gives the option to view a list of the trheads with new posts in them, that I have previosly posted in. Sort of liek a favorites hit list that works out well. First I'll hit that list, then if time permits I'll click on the "new posts since my last login'.... or the other choice is "all unread posts". Again, these all link to a list of the thread titles, not to the post themselves.
Where to begin? Perhaps it's because I use Firefox 18, but lots of things don't show up correctly.
None of the tags seem to work (url, color and size in the post above, for example, as well as quote)
The number of pages in a thread seems to broken. One that claimed to have 78 posts only showed 1 page (I had set it to show 40 per page). Going to Latest Activity tab rather than Posts tab seemed to be correct. When I switched back to 10 per page, this thread for example showed 1 of 4 pages yet there were really 7 pages! There's also no way to go to the last page.
Doing a search will give results but no way to get to those actual posts, just the user or forum they were posted in.
The system is even slower than it was before which was already near painful. By far the slowest site I visit. I've given up a couple times already because it just seems to hang.
I really don't see why you didn't go with a proven forum package (eg, phpBB) that would have avoided all these headaches.
After communicating with Terry, the owner of this site, I wish to update and correct what I said before about the Forum Runner app for the iPad, which I assume also is an app for the iPhone, iPod touch, etc.
Here's the story:
This app is NOT affiliated with, subscribed to by, or being promoted by Scouter.com.
As I said earlier, the app does NOT appear to work with Scouter.com (in other words, this site cannot be accessed through the app.)
The popup I received seems to be an attempt to get forum members to bug their forum owners into signing up with the owner of the app.
Apologies for any confusion created by my earlier posts.
Agree with most of what the others have said:
Site is s-l-o-w------
Thing I thought I posted simply aren't there next time I go look
IN this thread, e.g, it said "Page 1 of 3" at the top, when there are actually 5 pages.
My preference is to have threads sorted "most recent first" so I don' t have to scroll through everything I've already read.
Yah, most of da time I can't post because I keep gettin' the JSON error qwazse is talking about. Something about "unexpected character". Really annoyin' after typin' a long message.
NJCubScouter commented02-14-2013, 11:07 AMEditing a commentI get the JSON error about 25 percent of the time I try to post. Yesterday I got a new one, "You are not authorized to post this message." I wanted to ask it, who is authorized to post the message I wrote, if not me? But it's just a computer, so I figured I probably wouldn't get a response.
Question -- where is the button to start a new topic?
Problem -- some threads, like this one, still don't show a second page. Shows "page 1 of 1" . When you manually enter a "2" it will re-calculate and show the second page. This seems to have been fixed on some threads/forums.
Preference -- I liked the old function of providing links by page number next to the main link to the first page of the thread. This allowed me to jump to the last page I read and pick up the thread. Now I have to go to page one of a thread, figure out how many pages there are and go from there. This is difficult now since the number of posts apparently counts comments, and in light of the above problem.
Opportunity -- Forget who was asking this, but if you'll notice on the "active in the past 24" list, the little page icon to the left of the thread name will be blue if there are unread messages in the thread or white if you've read everything.
TERRY -- CONTINUING APPRECIATION FOR YOUR CONTINUING EFFORTS! (E92 -- yeah, I'm yellin' or whatever).
Sometimes, but not all the time, when I click Post Reply, it gives me a warning that the existing reply will be replaced, and asks me if I want to continue anyway. I have been clicking Yes, but I cannot figure out what reply is being erased, if any. I have not noticed any of my own posts missing. I hope I am not erasing anyone else's posts.
Also, I was using Internet Explorer for a couple of other sites and realized IE was running pretty slowly for them too -- not "freeze" slow, but still annoyingly slow, like instead of responding to a click in a half-second it takes five to ten seconds, which if you add all the clicks together, adds up to Way Too Slow. This is one of the reasons I switched from IE to Firefox in the first place. So some of my slowness problems with this site may be the browser -- but that doesn't really help me, since as I said before, Firefox isn't working for me on this site. I find that pretty odd, especially considering that at least one other person has said that this site works for them in Firefox but not in IE! (And before anyone suggests Chrome, I have my issues with that one too.)
Personally, I would like to see another category in the forum...classifieds. I think that we could benefit from both private and commercial classifieds to seek out equipment and uniforms that we need, as well as giving us an opportunity to recycle equipment and uniforms that we have in excess.
Just a thought...
1) Still very slow.
2) !! Where is the function to "spin off a new (related) thread)".
3) No "Scouting in the news" item (from last version).
4) I like the connected comments function ala facebook, but How To Spin Off A Related Thread??
5) Classifieds might be a nice touch for commercial stuff. Keep things seperate.
6) Still favor a Faith and Chaplaincy Forum. I believe the amount of discussion of religion / faith/ Scout's Own etc . gives proof of the legitimacy of this.
7) In the last version, we saw the page x of y counter, but it included the ability to go to the page we wished to see first ( the numbers were listed serially). This was on the "last 24 hours" list. The recounting of the whole first message is time wasting and unnecessary. List the "latest message listed" forum list, and let us avoid needing to scroll over the whole list to the "more" button.
8) The button I push for a particular action, may or may not react (change color, retract, etc.), and I may or may not get the little roundandround thingy in the upper left of my windows window. Might be nice for consistancy to see one or the other, or both together.
9) The new system is certainly colorful. And spread out. Last version was more compact. Didn't know any different then, just commenting. If THIS was the "old " system, and THAT was the "new" sysytem, would I like THAT one better? Duknow....
This is getting very frustrating. I keep trying to post in this topic and get one error message or another. Meanwhile, I seem to be able to post in Issues and Politics almost every time. Same browser, same computer, same session, different results. Let's see if this one actually posts.

Soren Chemical: Why is the New Swimming Pool Product Sinking? (Brief Case), Spanish Version

Spanish PDF
Also Available in:

$ 6.93
When students have the English-language PDF of this Brief Case in a coursepack, they will also have the option to purchase an audio version.
Topics include distribution channels, pricing, and new product marketing. Jen Moritz, the marketing manager for Soren Chemical Co. is struggling with the poor sales performance of Coracle, a new clarifier for residential swimming pools. The performance is puzzling because Coracle is chemically similar to another Soren product that has sold well for treatment of larger pools. Soren distributes the other product B2B through "chemical formulators" serving the commercial pools market -- but Soren uses wholesale distributors to sell Coracle. Given the slow start in establishing Coracle as a consumer brand, Moritz suspects that the go-to-market strategy may be flawed, but she is unsure where the problem lies; she examines channel strategy, distribution partners, the Coracle pricing scheme, the threat of competitors' offerings, and other potential problem sources.
learning objective:
1. Examine the interactive nature of the elements of the marketing mix, i.e. the impact of pricing and branding policy on the incentives of channel partners 2. Evaluate different approaches to pricing, including value pricing, competitive parity pricing, and customer indifference pricing (cannibalization) 3. Understand the trade-offs in new product marketing between an ideal strategy and what is actually feasible and affordable

About RBC Life
RBC Life is a global wellness company with a line of high quality, evidence-based nutritional supplements and body care products ideally suited to serve the trillion-dollar wellness boom. Located on seven acres in Irving, Texas, the company operates from a 119,000-square-foot facility with modern in house laboratories, and in full compliance with GMP standards.
During the 1980's, the company's founder, Clinton Howard, assembled a research team to uncover the age-old mystery behind the health-giving properties of the Aloe vera plant. Sages for centuries have sung the praises of the so-called "medicine plant", but the source of its health-giving benefits remained an enigma. Four years and $20 million in research later, Howard's team isolated a new biological compound, Aloe vera's most active ingredient, and a strong support to the immune system. It was given the name acemannan.
In 1991, armed with proof of the plant's benefits, Howard founded RBC Life Sciences. He incorporated Aloe vera, and the most beneficial ingredients nature offers, into a new line. Today, the company offers more than 50 evidence-based wellness and fitness products. RBC Life is the direct sales marketing arm of the company. The company also owns MPM Medical, a subsidiary that develops and markets professional prescription, as well as non-prescription, wound care products.

|Celebrating the Gift of Blood - Every Blood Donor is a Hero
|Thursday, 14 June 2012 16:45
11 June 2012 | KINGSTON/JAMAICA
On 14 June 2012, countries worldwide will celebrate World Blood Donor Day with events to raise awareness of the need for safe blood and blood products and to thank voluntary unpaid blood donors for their life-saving gifts of blood. World Blood Donor Day was established by the World Health Assembly in 2004 and its scope of events increases every year in recognition of the need to strengthen blood services and to express gratitude to all those selfless individuals who donate their blood for people they will never meet.
The theme of the 2012 World Blood Donor Day campaign, "EVERY BLOOD DONOR IS A HERO" focuses on the idea that every one of us can become a hero by giving blood. The everyday hero responds to an immediate need, whatever the conditions, despite inconvenience, putting the needs of others above their own. Voluntary blood donors come from all walks of life, all regions, backgrounds, religions and ages. By choosing to donate blood without getting paid, these individuals commit a "heroic" act, a gesture of human solidarity with the power to save lives. Some of them do so dozens of times over several decades.
Minister of Health, Hon. Dr. Fenton Ferguson says "this theme reinforces the urgent need for more people to become heroes by volunteering to donate blood regularly. The provision of safe and adequate blood is an integral part of our country's national health care policy and health care infrastructure. We have put in place policies, systems and structures to ensure the safety, quality, accessibility and timely availability of blood and blood products to meet the needs of all our patients who require transfusion. All critical activities within our national blood system are coordinated at the national level to promote uniform standards, economies of scale, consistency in the quality and safety of blood and blood products, and best transfusion practices."
Ms. Margareta Skold, the Pan American Health Organization/World Health Organization (PAHO/WHO) Representative in Jamaica, says "the transfusion of blood and blood products helps save millions of lives every year. It can help improve life expectancy and the quality of life for patients suffering from life-threatening conditions, and supports complex medical and surgical procedures. In many countries, demand outstrips supply, and blood services face the challenge of making sufficient blood available, while also ensuring its quality and safety. Today, in 62 countries, national blood supplies are based on 100% (or more than 99.9%) voluntary unpaid blood donation. However, 40 countries still depend on family donors and even paid donors and collect less than 25% of their blood supplies from voluntary unpaid blood donors. WHO's goal is for all countries to obtain their blood supplies entirely from voluntary unpaid donors by 2020."
"Conservative estimates based on the number of injury cases seen each year put the country's very immediate needs at approximately 45,000 - 55,000 units of blood annually but we only collect an average 25,000 - 30,000 units. The collection at most of our ten centres across the island is far below the usage in those regions. This inevitably means that medical and surgical care could be seriously compromised. We need to increase blood collection urgently and in particular to increase voluntary donations so that we can have a steady, adequate and safe supply of blood," said Minister Ferguson.
Voluntary blood donors are unsung heroes who save lives every day through their blood donation. The National Blood Transfusion Service is planning a week of activities recognising the efforts of all those in Jamaica to provide safe blood and blood products which are an essential element of our health care system.
The guidance and support from our international partners is also appreciated including the Pan American Health Organization/World Health Organization, the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, the International Federation of Blood Donor Organizations and the International Society of Blood Transfusion.
