The study has explored links between violence against women and socio-cultural backwardness and economic vulnerability. It provides a comprehensive summary of laws enacted in the country, affecting the social status of women and protection for them against such crimes.
Some landmark bills that could have helped alleviate the plight of women never saw the light of day. For instance, the Domestic Violence (Prevention and Protection) Bill was passed unanimously by the National Assembly on August 4, 2009; but lapsed after the Senate failed to pass it within the stipulated time period.
Other laws have undone progress achieved through earlier legislation. The Womens Protection Act of 2006 had provided the right to bail for women arrested in non-bail able offences, so that they would not languish in jail during trial. But, an amendment introduced in 2011 to the Criminal Procedure Code has left the issuance of bail in such cases the discretion of the court.
Still other laws, intended for the protection of women against forced marriages and domestic violence, are inadequate. For instance, the Prevention of Anti-Women Practices Act of 2011 only recommends punishment for those who give a female in forced marriage; not for the bridegroom or his family.
Similarly the Acid Control and Acid Crime Prevention Act of 2010 do not provide any mechanism for developing a mechanism to control acid trade, or for the rehabilitation or legal support of victims of acid attacks.
Women are also marginalised in terms of provision of education. Only 22 percent of girls complete primary schooling in the country, compared to 47 percent of boys. Female literacy is dismally low in rural areas; for instance, in rural Balochistan only 9 percent of females receive any education at all.
The SPDC survey exhibits some rather disturbing findings. According to respondents, in incidents of violence against women, the perpetrator is the husband 55 percent of the time, while in-laws are responsible 22 percent of the time.
It also asserts that in about 70 percent of all cases registered for violence against women, the cost is picked up by NGOs, while relatives foot the bill in less than 10 percent of the cases. This highlights a norm where women are discouraged from seeking justice by their own families.
The survey concludes that despite the display of governments concern for protection of women, the resources allocated to this end as well as the legislation drafted do not mirror this intent. Moreover, after the 18th Constitutional Amendment it is as yet unclear how the implementation of various laws and supportive frameworks will be adopted by the provincial governments.
The inequitable treatment of women in the country is a cause of strain for society as a whole. Until the social stature of women rises to be comparable to males, society will continue to bear direct and indirect costs due to violence and maltreatment of women.

At this time I will be handing the call over to your host for today's conference, Mr. Krishnan, you may proceed, sir.
Subramanian Krishnan
Good afternoon, and thank you for joining us today.
Before we start, I need to go over a few details. First, if you do not have a copy of our earnings release, you may access it through the press release section of the Digi Web site at www.digi.com.
Second, I would like to remind our listeners that our remarks may contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are not a guarantee of the Company's future performance. The important factors that may cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to the following.
Rapid changes in technologies that may displace; products sold by Digi; the business environment in which Digi operates; Digi's reliance on distributors; declining prices of networking products and changes in the company's level of profitability; the current uncertainty in the global economic conditions, which could negatively affect product demand; the recent financial crisis affecting the banking system and the financial markets, which could negatively impact the financial solvency of our customers and suppliers; the extreme volatility in the fixed income credit and equity markets, which could result in actual amounts realized on our debt securities or other investments that differ significantly from current market values; the ability to achieve the anticipated benefits and synergies associated with the recent acquisitions and the risks that the combined businesses will not be integrated successfully.
Finally, certain of the financial information disclosed on this call includes non-GAAP measures. The information required to be disclosed about these measures, including the reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measures are included in the earnings release or in the Form 8-K that we've filed before this call. The Form 8-K can be accessed through the SEC filing section of our investor relations web site at www.digi.com.
Now, I would like to introduce Mr. Joe Dunsmore, Chairman, President and CEO.
Joe Dunsmore
Thank you, Kris. Welcome to the call everyone. Digi team continued to execute in a steadfast way on its strategy in fiscal Q1 in a rapidly changing economic climate. Amidst a severe contraction in demand that began in November, we are able to achieve profitability for the quarter.
This is the 24th consecutive quarter of profitability for Digi and is of even greater significance this quarter in an environment where many NASDAQ companies will likely fall from profitability.
We saw negative impact across most product categories and geographies. However, the area that has wavered the least in these severe headwinds is our wireless product offering.
Total wireless revenue was up significantly year-over-year, and grew as a percent of revenue from 21.4% last year to 32.5% this year. Specifically, cellular performance far exceeded expectations and was primarily driven by many small to medium sized opportunities. Sarian performed well despite negative foreign exchange rate impact and MaxStream grew albeit at a much slower rate than in previous quarters.
Next, I will comment on the current environment and the golden opportunity that presents to Digi expanding on the comments that I made in the pre-release call a couple of weeks ago.
As I mentioned, we've clearly answered the most severe Darwinian survival of the fittest environment that I have seen in my business career. We will continue to see shake out consolidation across virtually all industry sectors over the coming months, including the M2M states. There will be clear winners and losers by market sectors who move through and eventually emerge from this severe market downturn.
This presents a tremendous opportunity for Digi to significantly enhance its market position since there are very few companies that have entered the downturn with the strength of operating margin and the balance sheet strength that Digi possesses.
Digi has no bank debt currently on its books. When you get the chance please look at the Digi investor presentation on our website and you'll find a table on slide four that compares Digi on five key liquidity ratios to high-tech bellwethers Intel, IBM, CI, Cisco and HP.
Digi's ranking is number one, number one, number one, number two and number two, respectively, versus the five bellwether companies for this analysis. Also keep in mind that many of our competitors have entered this downturn in a weakened state. And we believe that customers will place even greater focus on buying from strong and enduring companies like Digi.
We fundamentally believe the strength of the balance sheet and keeping an eye on relative performance are absolutely crucial in this current operating environment, Digi's position with its stellar balance sheet, strong operating margins and highly differentiated product positioning to gain share and emerge as a winner.
Next, I will expand on the fundamental principles that we are focusing on in 2009. One, aggressive share gain through continued investment in wireless M2M. We have continued to invest as others have pulled back over the past year. As a result, we are seeing growth from our wireless products in the face of this downturn.

Interview: WoodyFest features Garrett Lebeau, Trout Fishing in America, several others playing Okemah event for the first time
A version of this story appears in Friday's Weekend Life section of The Oklahoman.
WoodyFest features several playing Okemah event for the first time
Garrett Lebeau and Trout Fishing in America are among the musicians making their debut at the 16th Annual Woody Guthrie Folk Festival, continuing through Sunday.
"Sometimes I refer to it as kind of a folk approach to blues and R&B because the whole thing with blues is the feeling," said Lebeau, who is making his first trip to Oklahoma to play the Woody Guthrie Folk Festival Saturday in the folk icon's hometown of Okemah. "I just want to make music that speaks to people about real things, so it really is a folk tradition."
The self-taught musician, who is of Shoshone heritage, was born and bred on the Wind River Indian Reservation near Lander, Wyo., where he didn't really grow up listening to much music.
"There's a lot of people like that, especially in the Midwest, that music is just not … a priority for them," said Lebeau, 34, adding he was in middle school when a family acquaintance taught him to play a few bluesy guitar chords. "As time went on, I heard Buddy Guy … and that kind of got me reinterested in playing the blues. But I had nobody to play with and nowhere to go see music."
He played his first gig at a coffeehouse in his hometown around 2004, but when he moved his brood to Marble Falls, Texas, about seven years ago to be nearer to his wife's family, the father of two found more opportunities to make music in nearby Austin.
"I had this style that I was wanting to do, which was evolving, which the record is a culmination of that," said Lebeau, who recently released his debut album, "Rise to the Grind," on Oklahoma-bred Austin music mainstay Jimmy LaFave's Music Road Records. "I'm real proud of that record … because all the songs are about something."
Lebeau wasn't interested in recording what he calls "the Kraft macaroni and cheese blues." He wanted to craft his soulful songs based on strong lyrics as opposed to a cookie-cutter blues-rock riffs.
"The Woody Guthrie Festival, I think, is a great example: You've got all these people there that are songwriters and it's about the art and writing the tunes and these people have something to say. It's a different thing. The blues, to me, I think was that way at one time, but not so much anymore," Lebeau said.
"To me, Woody Guthrie is this person who wanted to write about things from people's perspective … just normal people. And that's who I write tunes for."
Festival first-timers
Lebeau joins several renowned artists making their WoodyFest debuts this year. Other first-timers include folk-rock/kindie rock duo Trout Fishing in America; California-by-way-of-Canada singer-songwriter Steve Poltz; Atlanta-based "The Voice" Season 1 contender Rebecca Loebe; Ohio-born up-and-comer Griffin House; Nashville, Tenn., songsmith Tim Easton; rambling indie folk scribe Otis Gibbs; young Oklahomans Parker Millsap and Levi Parham; and more.
In addition, WoodyFest, which continues through Sunday, will feature returning favorites LaFave, John Fullbright, Ellis Paul, Joel Rafael, the Red Dirt Rangers, David Amram, The Damn Quails, Samantha Crain and more at various venues around Okemah.
The free festival, scheduled annually around the folk hero's July 14 birthday, also will feature this weekend children's concerts, an open mike and special events such as a poetry forum, pancake breakfast hosted by Guthrie's younger sister Mary Jo Guthrie Edgmon and hootenanny benefiting the Oklahoma chapter of the Huntington's Disease Society of America.
Reeling in WoodyFest
Although Trout Fishing in America partners Keith Grimwood and Ezra Idlet are playing their first WoodyFest, they're already quite familiar with the event.
"We're really excited about doing this. My wife has been volunteering at the WoodyFest since the very first year and has been coming home raving about it. We work an awful lot around the country and have not been able to make it," Idlet said, adding his wife, Karen Idlet, helps sell merchandise every year at the event in addition to running the duo's record independent label.
Although the pair's sprawling schedule hasn't included many Oklahoma gigs in years past, the four-time Grammy nominees have already done three shows at Oklahoma City's Blue Door this year. Last month, they also toured Tulsa's new Woody Guthrie Center and performed across Brady Street at the Guthrie Green.
"Two years ago, I had the time off and I just went (to WoodyFest) with Karen — did not perform, just went and watched — and I was knocked out by the caliber of performers, the camaraderie between the musicians and the presenters. And the audience was just tremendous," Idlet said in a spring phone interview from the "Trout House" in Prairie Grove, Ark.
"That house band is awesome. Terry Ware is just a fabulous guitar player … but I mean, their drummer, their bass player, they're just smoking hot. Wonderful."
Along with playing the big Pastures of Plenty stage Friday night right before Fullbright's headlining set, Trout Fishing will play a children's concert at noon Saturday at St. Paul's United Methodist Church in Okemah. The longtime duo is known for crafting catchy children's songs that draw from an array of musical genres as well as folk-rock music for grown-ups.
"Our music goes across age limits very easily. We skip back and forth really comfortably because it's real music," Grimwood said. "It's music that comes from our heart and real subjects and things like that. We're trying to play good music for people."
Sounds like just the kind of thing Woody would appreciate.
Woody Guthrie Folk Festival
When: Through Sunday.

Welcome to the NOPC.
Unfortunately, while Meetup has showed a lot of promise and may very well be a great fit for other organizations, NOPC finds Meetup has not been a good fit for us. NOPCC has discontinued the use of Meetup and will no longer update this group.
Please come to our monthly general meetings on the first Wednesday of each month. Listen to our speakers who talk on computer topics. We don't get into advanced topics. We have had a private investigator and a lawyer speak about finding information about people.
We have had, at the general meeting, Jerry Serigni, now of Fox 8, speak about hurricane preparedness for your home and office and yur computers. We have had someone from the Jefferson Parish library speak about finding information on the Internet. One of members has spoken about "Solving Common Computer Problems." And those are from just some of our past meetings.
You are also invited to our New/Intermediate user group. It meets on the second Wednesday of each month.
It's designed for members and guests to ask questions. People will ask questions such as "What do I do to get _________ to work?" Or, "I'm having trouble doing ____________________ and it won't work. What can I do?"
No question is too basic. And no question is too complex. Members return to each meeting -- and they return because they are always learning something at the meetings.
Mac users are also invited to both meetings. Although ours is a PC group, much of what is discussed applies to both Mac and to PC.
All are welcome. Please e-mail our organizer if you have any questions. Come to a meeting and we think you'll return for another one.
This group is closed to new members.

This isn't a homework question, by the way. It got brought up in class but my teacher couldn't think of any. Thanks.
How do you define the identity functions ? If you're only considering the syntax, there are different identity functions, which all have the correct type:
There are even weirder functions:
If you restrict yourself to a pure subset of OCaml (which rules out f7 and f8), all the functions you can build verify an observational equation that ensures, in a sense, that what they compute is the identity : for all value
This equation does not depend on the specific function, it is uniquely determined by the type. There are several theorems (framed in different contexts) that formalize the informal idea that "a polymorphic function can't change a parameter of polymorphic type, only pass it around". See for example the paper of Philip Wadler, Theorems for free!.
The nice thing with those theorems is that they don't only apply to the
This is indeed true when
Once you allow non-termination, either by diverging (looping indefinitely, as with the
There are saner ways to lose the equivalence to identity : you could work inside a non-empty environment, with predefined values accessible from the function. Consider for example the following function :
You still that the property that for all x,
If counter is hidden (for example by a module signature, or simply
This function never terminates, but it does have type
If we only allow total functions, the question becomes more interesting. Without using evil tricks, it's not possible to write a total function of type
On second thought that one isn't total either because it will crash when used with boxed types.
So the real answer is: the identity function is the only total function of type
Throwing an exception can also give you an
If you restrict yourself to a "reasonable" strongly normalizing typed λ-calculus, there is a single function of type ∀α α→α, which is the identity function. You can prove it by examining the possible normal forms of a term of this type.
Philip Wadler's 1989 article "Theorems for Free" explains how functions having polymorphic types necessarily satisfy certain theorems (e.g. a map-like function commutes with composition).
There are however some nonintuitive issues when one deals with much polymorphism. For instance, there is a standard trick for encoding inductive types and recursion with impredicative polymorphism, by representing an inductive object (e.g. a list) using its recursor function. In some cases, there are terms belonging to the type of the recursor function that are not recursor functions; there is an example in §4.3.1 of Christine Paulin's PhD thesis.

Completed another week.
I don't think I've ever lasted this long on a program without skipping a workout! Just skipped the very last one on week 1 because I was resting for my half marathon. I think I more than made up for it!
I'm not sure if I'm feeling stronger, like Jillian suggests I should be on the videos. I think this week was easier than last week but not sure if it's because I'm stronger or if I'm just familiar with the workout. Who knows!
I'm also not losing much weight. First week I lost 2.5 lbs, but second and third week only 1/2 lb each week. Total to date less than 4 lbs. I think a big part of it is the nutrition. Week 1 I totally had my A game. Weeks 2 & 3 not so much. There was Mother's Day, after all! lol I will measure myself on Sunday, though. I did before beginning the program and haven't since. Perhaps I'll be able to report lots of lost inches, although I'm really not seeing it in my clothes. We'll see!
Today I got a sandwich at Subway then went to the grocery store and got lots of stuff for salad plus grilled chicken and tuna. I think I'll alternate between the two. I have a refrigerator at work and keep the stuff there. Then I don't have to prepare the night before. Also takes a lot of the guesswork from deciding what to order for lunch, not to mention I spent about $20 for everything. That's about $5 per day. Heck of a lot cheaper than most meals out there.
I'm also thinking about signing up for another half marathon. A local one on September 23rd. That gives me 18 weeks to train, and since the mileage in the beginning's pretty low, it'll work great for extra cardio during the program. I'll run on the same days as the JMBR workouts and do some other form of cardio on Wednesdays and Saturdays, maybe even the Cardio DVD's with the program.

Eating at Subway stalls me. Too much bread. I fix my own lunches at home too. Good job on the workouts.

Yesenia Paulina
Update on Yesenia PaulinaYesenia belongs to the María Auxiliadora communal bank. She continues with her business of selling beauty products like creams, perfume, and cologne, among others. She has been in this business for years, and it is going well for her thanks to the daily effort she puts into the business.
She sells merchandise to all of her friends and to customers who request her products. She is a responsible and diligent person, as this is the way that she gets her family ahead.
She is requesting the loan to buy more merchandise, like perfume and cologne, for her business.
She is grateful for the loan that was granted, and she pledges to make her payments punctually.
La socia solicita el crédito para la compra de más mercadería para su negocio como perfumes y colonias.
La socia se siente agradecida por el crédito otorgado y se compromete a cumplir con sus cuotas establecidas.
Previous Loan DetailsDuring the communal bank's meeting we met Yesenia, who is a member of Asociación Arariwa's "María Auxiliadora" communal bank, and who meets with her fellow members every thirty day in the house of one of the members in Cusco's San Jerónimo neighborhood. Yesenia was born in Cusco, Perú. Sh... More from Yesenia Paulina's previous loan »
Additional Information
Important InformationAbout Asociación Arariwa
Asociación Arariwa is a large non-governmental organization that started offering microcredit in 1994 to improve the quality of life, skills and equity of the population in the rural Cusco region of Peru. Arariwa serves the southern Andean provinces of Peru, and is distinguished by its efforts to reach the very poor, who often live in isolated rural areas. Arariwa fosters village banking, supports savings accounts, promotes access to education, and empowers women entrepreneurs (who make up 78% of its borrowers).
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Do you think highlighting your hair is a big deal? My family of origin is having professional pictures and my SIL and I are having some bonding time in the salon. We both had the first set of grandkids for my parents hence the pictures. SIL and I are doing this a gift to my parents for their birthdays and Christmas. The spa hair thing is for my mom and SIL and I to have girl time. Yes this is not cheap but I have saved the $ for it and so that's not the issue. (SIL had my niece 9 days before my DD) So I haven't had my hair colored or highligthed in over 3 years almost 4. (Saving $ because of IVF to have DD and hopefully other LOs) I am slightly freaked out about it because all I read online is how bad coloring your hair is when your breastfeeding. Im not pregnant and I am getting highlights in which I haven't done since my wedding. I am sure I am making this more of a deal then it is so none of you need to say that to me. I just want to know if you color your hair and Breastfeed. SIL and i are going to get our hair highlighted and then we are getting it styled with my mom the day of the pictures and makeup. I also feel bad spending money on myself but there's a part of me who is very excited to leave LO with my DH and go get some girl time for myself. Then there's the part of me and my friends who are like how can you spend this amount of $ and not on your kid. I usually don't highlight my hair its been almost 4 years. I like how it looks naturally I have a few grays oh well I earne them I'm 32 my life has been pretty awesome and I am sure each one of my grays has a story. I am just not wanting to regret not highlighting my hair in a few years when I look at the pictures that will be up on my parents wall. Any thoughts?
Since no one looks at this without a poll I'll put in a poll.

In today's edition of What the Hell Is Wrong With Idaho we'd like you to meet the Greens, model parents from Boise. Like many average Americans, Tony and Medina like to add a little medicinal flavor to their lives. Like many average Americans, they're also fans of sugary treats. Unfortunately, also like many average Americans, they're not so good at keeping an eye on their kids.
While dad was out and mom slept, the kid found a pot-laced Rice Krispie treat on the kitchen counter. Now mom and dad are facing felony charges of injury to a child. And the child is facing the threat of being the coolest kindergartner to enter the class of 2011.

Re: Second Appeal–Missouri Department of Natural Resources, PA ID 000-UB2M9-00, Debris Removal from Locust Creek, FEMA-1934-DR-MO, Project Worksheet (PW) 605
Dear Mr. Parmenter:
This letter is in response to a letter from your office dated January 27, 2012, which transmitted the referenced second appeal on behalf of the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (Applicant). The Applicant is appealing the Department of Homeland Security's Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) denial of $392,592 in funding for debris removal from Locust Creek.
As a result of tornadoes, severe storms, and flooding occurring June 12, 2010, through July 31, 2010, debris logjams formed in Locust Creek. Locust Creek is a natural stream that is located in Pershing State Park in Linn County, Missouri. At the Applicant's request, FEMA prepared PW 605 in the amount of $392,592 to remove 39,259 cubic yards of vegetative debris from the channel and banks at two locations in Locust Creek. FEMA directed the Applicant to contact the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) for assistance as the NRCS is the responsible Federal agency for watershed impairments through its Emergency Watershed Protection Program (EWP). EWP eligible activities include, but are not limited to, providing financial and technical assistance to remove debris from stream channels.
In a November 5, 2010, email, NRCS affirmed the Applicant's eligibility for EWP assistance. However, the NRCS stated that it had no EWP funds available in 2010 for such projects. NRCS stated that EWP funding was only available for projects that would avoid loss of life, and that the logjams did not meet that criterion. On November 19, 2010, FEMA denied funding for PW 605 because funding for debris removal from natural streams is within the authority of the NRCS.
First Appeal
The Applicant submitted a first appeal on January 25, 2011, which was forwarded by the State Emergency Management Agency (Grantee) to FEMA on February 10, 2011. The Applicant requested Public Assistance (PA) funding for debris removal due to the lack of EWP funding. In addition, the Applicant consulted with the Missouri State Parks Northern Parks District (Parks District) to determine whether the logjams presented a public safety issue.
On January 31, 2011, the Supervisor of the Parks District advised the Applicant via email that "the location of the logjams in Locust Creek pose no direct threat of loss of life, and that there are no dwellings, habitation or developed areas in this section of the floodplain as it is mainly forested wetlands and agricultural fields." The supervisor also advised that "all camping areas are well above the floodplain," and that the "logjams pose no threat to loss of life there as well."
In a letter dated September 29, 2011, the Regional Administrator denied the Applicant's request pursuant to FEMA Recovery Policy RP9523.5, Debris Removal from Waterways, Section VII.D.1, which states, "The removal of debris by an applicant for which another Federal agency has specific authority, or from Federally maintained navigable channels and waterways is ineligible under the Public Assistance Program." The Regional Administrator also explained that denial of funding by the responsible Federal agency is not a basis for requesting Public Assistance from FEMA.
Second Appeal
The Applicant submitted its second appeal on December 1, 2011, which the State transmitted to FEMA on January 27, 2012. The Applicant stated that seeking funding under NRCS was not prudent from an environmental perspective because it believed constraints imposed by EWP guidelines would cause damage to the wetlands. The Applicant also mentioned that the PW 605 Special Considerations worksheet prepared by FEMA contained multiple errors. The second appeal documentation includes copies of emails between the Applicant and the NRCS, and between the Applicant and the Parks District.
Under Section 312 of the Robert T. Stafford Emergency Assistance and Disaster Relief Act, as amended, FEMA may not duplicate assistance from any other source, including other Federal programs. As further articulated in FEMA's Recovery Policy 9523.5, Debris Removal from Waterways, if another Federal agency has specific authority for removal of debris from a waterway, the debris removal is ineligible under FEMA's Public Assistance Program. The NRCS has the authority to provide assistance to address watershed impairments under its EWP Program. The NRCS indicated it did not have funding available for logjams in Locust Creek. Lack of funding does not alter an agency's authority, and therefore does not then constitute eligibility for Public Assistance funding. Further, the NRCS found that the logjams in Locust Creek did not pose a threat to lives or property since the Locust Creek area consists of forested wetlands and agricultural fields. The logjams therefore did not qualify for emergency funding from NRCS under the EWP program. Based on the documentation in the second appeal, including the assessment by the NRCS, the debris removal in Locust Creek is not eligible for Public Assistance funding.
FEMA acknowledges that errors were made on the Special Considerations worksheet and those errors have been corrected. However, the corrections made to the worksheet do not effect FEMA's first or second appeal determinations.
I have reviewed the information submitted with the appeal and have determined that the Regional Administrator's decision is consistent with Public Assistance regulations and policies. Accordingly, I am denying the Applicant's second appeal.
Please inform the Applicant of my decision. This determination is the final decision on this matter pursuant to 44 CFR §206.206, Appeals.

I know this thread is very old and maybe no one will ever see this post, but I did when I was pregnant and due in August 2014. In my first trimester my baby was diagnosed with echogenic bowels. I went through a lot of stress and tests trying to figure out what would be wrong with my baby. I did a lot of research while waiting for the test results and prayed constantly. The research stayed it could have been because I was very skinny before pregnancy or because the ultrasound technology is too sensitive. Regardless, I had no idea what to expect when she was born l, but spent thousands out of pocket to so ultrasounds and blood tests. I am happy to say that even though two ultrasounds showed this, one in first tri and one in the second, she was born healthy. I am saying this because you will drive yourself crazy with worry, but leave it with God and pray about it instead.posted 12/10/2014 by royalp8
My baby also had an echogenic bowel and spot on his heart at my 20 week ultrasound. I was sent for a level 2 ultrasound a week later, where they confirmed the same thing. I spoke to a genetic counselor who informed me that the spot on the heart increased the chance for Down Syndrome by 2. The echogenic bowel increased it by 5. I didn't have the genetic testing early on because I knew I wasn't a carrier for CF and I would not abort if my child had Downs. If I had done this testing, they would have been able to give me a better idea of my risk factor. I declined the amnio, afraid that I could miscarry from it. I had another ultrasound at 34 weeks. They couldn't see the bowel clearly, but the spot on the heart was still there. Anyways, my baby boy was born healthy. My ob/gyn said that they are seeing more & more of these "spots" because the ultrasounds are much clearer than they used to be. It does not mean something is wrong. Good luck! http://kaiyasworld.wordpress.composted 07/26/2012 by kaiya's world
When I was pregnant with my son in 2013, we found out he had echogenic bowel. Endless hours of worry, research, and tons of copays on ultrasounds and testing. He was born perfectly healthy and is a happy 18 month old. I am now 20 weeks pregnant and just got a call that this baby has echogenic bowel. I am not as freaked out this time because all turned out well with my son. Has anyone had this same situation where you have had this in multiple pregnancies?posted 06/04/2015 by Morgancita
It can be a marker for several foetal disorders (eg: Down syndrome). However, if your blood work has all come back within limits and the rest of your u/sound showed no issues, then most likely there will be no underlying problems with your baby and it will be born "normal". In most cases where the echogenic bowel is the only marker, the baby will be fine.posted 05/31/2012 by a BabyCenter Member
My baby was diagnosed with echogenic bowel and EIF spot on heart. I was beside myself with worry about having 2 softmarkers. My early blood work showed 1/18,000 for DS and 1/30,000 for Tridomy 18. Then at 20, 28, and 31 weeks we had the bowel and heart markers. My MFM was not concerned due to my earlier blood work, but I was!!! Opted for MaterniT21 test for $235 out of pocket. Just got results and they were negative for T13, T18, and T21. Hope this helps some of you... I am a worrier and the stress was too much too handle, so we opted for the MaterniT21... A bit expensive, but worth every penny for the peace of mind!posted 08/08/2012 by Jill146

I am 17 wks and very upset waiting one week to recieve the advanced blood work testing to tell me what the chances are that my daughter will have anything wrong with her. Im nervous bc I have the soft marker with the genetic fetal bowel too. Pray for my baby pleaseposted 10/07/2015 by RubiCuti

I just received this news today at 28 weeks, so they are sending me back to the HRD for a full anatomy scan. I did the Panorama blood test early in my pregnancy and everything was fine, but this has me so worried now.

The Thistle and the Jade: A Celebration of 175 Years of Jardine Matheson
Frances Lincoln, 2008 - 320页
Jardine, Matheson & Co. was founded in Canton in 1832, and built up to become an international trading house with business interests throughout the world. The Thistle & The Jade assembles contributions from both leading historians, such as Professor John King Fairbank and Professor K.C. Lui, and old Jardine hands, including Alan Reid and Sir John Keswick, to tell the story of how this happened. The result is a fascinating miscellany of scholarship and anecdote that tells an exciting tale of merchant adventure, of how wealth and influence were accumulated in the early days of trading, and of the special relationship forged by 'the Princely Hong' with China and her people.

Is the sc a black/white houndstooth, or navy/white?
When I noticed the letters showed, I considered restuffing it, but then I figured that bothering to hide a brand that was visible without intention was almost as bad as deliberately displaying a brand. The best approach to an accidental brand appearance is to not give a fuck...because brands aren't important enough to matter....right?
(The reactionary nature of hipster fashion has always been risible in my eyes for the same reason. By going through so much effort to demonstrate you are free from mainstream fashion, you are actually just simply letting mainstream fashion dictate what you wear in a different way)
That would be so fucking sweet. I'd happily be a brandwhore if it meant free swag.
I thought only Zegna made you hard?
Navy/white. I don't own any black clothing. Not even a pair of black shoes.
You should swap a black pair with AAS :)
What is the fabric on that blazer? Nice sheen.
Personally, I feel your trousers need more length. But that is because I like to wear mine too long.
Then I imagine footwear is the least of my worries.
Thanks for the comments.
haha, if he is interested :)
The blazer is hopsack I guess?? (I am a noob). It's the JCP store brand Stafford.
I am one of those guys walking with a puddle of fabric around the ankle. In the last month or so, after reading SF and Putthison, I have decided to go with minimum break. Matter of fact this is the first pair I altered.
The fit of the garments is good, but the outfit doesn't have very much character in my opinion. My outfits may have a little bit too much character though so take that with a grain of salt. My least favorite thing is the tie knot. It's way too large for a button down collar, IMO. Good for a first go though.

Baby led weaning questions
DD1, 1/2012 (23w6d, 1lb 9oz, due to IC) My miracle baby!
DD2, 12/2014 (39w4d) My cerclage baby!
Comments (5)
I wasn't really planning to do baby-led-weaning, but that's basically what we ended up doing because I didn't start introducing solids until 9 months actual / 6 adjusted, and soon after that Mr. Independence decided that he didn't want to be spoon fed. The approach worked well for us because (1) I wasn't in any rush to start solids, (2) Peter liked trying a variety of foods, and (3) Peter developed a decent pincer grasp around 7 months adjusted.
I actually started with mashed banana, oatmeal, and pureed sweet potato at 6 months adjusted, but when I took a more baby-led-weaning approach, I gave him things like puffs (these are easy and safe for learning to get food from a table into your belly), fruits (blueberries, strawberries, pear... the slippery fruits like banana were more challenging), peas and steamed vegetables, small noodles, rice, bits of chicken, fish, and bits of meatball.

We also started directly at 6 months adj on BLW. I was a bit concerned that Liam may not like being spoon-fed. I also waited until 6 months adj to make sure his digestive system was going to handle solids well.
We started off with things he could "grab" - not much was going in at first, but that's fine because almost all his calories/nutrition is coming from milk. We gave him soft boild broccoli, steamed carrots, avocados, miniture onigiri rice rolls (the seaweed held the rice together to make it easier for him to hold) sweet potato sticks, and steamed pumpkin. He would gag initially, but slowly got the hang of things and now is able to eat table foods so long as the bits are small. Once he started to use the pincer grab he didn't gag so much. Liam also likes a variety of foods, and I'm not in any hurry to get him to eat solids.
BLW is very messy so be prepared! I put newspapers under his highchair coz a lot of food flies off his table.
Mama to Liam, a miracle 23wkr!
BLW ended up being my friend LOL. Calvin ate ok from a spoon but loved to get dirty and eat himself. He always seemed to eat better if he could do it, gotta love independence. It can get messy but I used to put him in his high chair in nothing but a diaper and just let him go at it and if I could give him a bath when it was over.

Ever been guilty of using Excel as a fancy calculator? If so, you'd be just using a formula in Excel - such as =A1+A2 or =452*12.
So, you could write a formula containing a function eg. =MAX(A1:B20) or you could just write a simple formula which does not contain a function eg. =A1/A2.
Mastering the use of functions in formulas is a key skill in learning Financial Modelling. Happy formula-writing!

Hi Basavaraj,
A function would be something like =SUM(A1:A2) whereas a formula would simply be =A1+A2. In order to be using a function, you need to use the predefined functions created in Excel, not just a mathematical calculation.
I hope that makes sense!

Model of Innovation Awards Given to JCA; Center Was Also Honored for Its Programs, Events
Scanlan, Dan, The Florida Times Union
Byline: DAN SCANLAN
The Jewish Community Alliance has been honored with four Model of Innovation awards from the Jewish Community Center Association.
But it didn't stop there.
The New York-based umbrella organization for hundreds of Jewish community centers also presented the JCA with three other awards recognizing an ongoing program and two special events it had on its campus at 8505 San Jose Blvd.
All of the Jewish community centers were asked to submit entries showing how each maintains standards of excellence in promotion of their facilities when it comes to religion, heritage, health and social programming, and how well they market them to the community. Jacksonville's JCA submitted nine entries about six months ago, and will receive its seven awards at the JCCs of North America Biennial 2006 event, Thursday May 4, to Wednesday, May 10, in Philadelphia.
"We are showing what we believe is our excellence in programming, development and the marketing of those programs," said JCA membership and communications director Hollie Arnold. "We are very proud to have received these awards and proud of the work that we do."
The JCC association is the umbrella organization for more than 350 community centers and Young Men's and Young Woman's Hebrew Associations in the United States and Canada. The association also offers services and resources to help the affiliates provide educational, cultural, social, Jewish identity-building and recreational programs and a network of Jewish early childhood centers and Jewish summer camps.
The JCA has about 2,000 families involved in a myriad of programs from fitness and sports activities to cultural arts, education, theater and Jewish culture in its 70,000-square-foot facility, which includes regular art shows in its Vandroff Art Gallery, as well as its annual Jewish Book Festival. The first of four Model of Innovation awards was for the JCA's membership enhancement campaign -- four postcards with member testimonials, Arnold said.
"We discussed how we could retain members and make them feel proud about being a member, and they came up with this testimonial idea," she said. "We interviewed three senior citizens; we did three teens; we did a family and we did empty-nesters."
A brochure promoting the JCA's 2005 summer camp was also an innovation award winner, as was a report on the agency's own insight into the perceptions and strengths of its operation. …

bus or train from Rome to Orvieto, Assisi, and Siena, and then to Florence
My wife and I are planning to depart from Rome, visit the hill towns of Orvieto, Assisi, and Siena over a period of four days, and then end up in Florence. We will be taking public transportation. We are looking for advice on the best way (train or bus) and the best order (for transportation schedule or other reasons) to visit the hill towns. We will be traveling in October. Do transportation schedules make a particular order of the hill towns easier? Are there any things about bus or train schedules that we need to be aware of? Are train or bus reservations necessary or advisable? Also, any suggestions about places to stay in the hill towns would be appreciated. Thanks.
