NT Scan- High Risk For DS

Hello everybody,
I just had my NT test and received a high risk result (1:179). After I had the scan, the Dr. told me everything looked great and then backtracked when he saw my blood results (b-HCG: 3.480 and PAPPA-A: 0.520). I have no idea what these numbers mean but they have already caused a lot of tears.
Im trying to keep everything in perspective but hearing that it's high risk is a real shock. I watched my mum go through a pregnancy with a DS child a few years back and it scares the crap out of me.
Has anybody had a similar result? What was the outcome?
Thank you in advance

High risk ratio's do not mean that your baby will have DS or any other chromosomal abnormality.
What you & your DP need to decide now is do you wish to have further testing & find out for sure if your baby has DS etc.
My experience, due to my bloods & age I was given a 1:100 ration of DS. We chose to have a CVS procedure done at 13 weeks and received the all clear, our baby is chromosmally healthy, i'm now 31 weeks.
Ofcourse you also need to be realistic on how you would deal with the news should it be positive, no an easy call to make. My advice if it really worries you do your research & get extra testing. I'm not necessarily saying you would terminate but perhaps it would make it easier for you to deal with knowing the facts.
Talk to your GP or OB about a CVS vs an Amnio ( as you can have a CVS earlier) & then decide where to go next.
Hang in there, it's not all bad news! In all the people I know who've had similar ratio's not one has had a DS baby. Good Luck

AprilBaby2012, I am in the same situation, I am terrified to say the least. Only thing I was the opposite, my bloods were ok, my NT measurement was huge. My risk is 1:61 and my T13 and T18 is double what it should be for my age.
It seems most people in our DIG have had fantastic results regarding their NT's, all I keep reading is congrats on all the great results and here we are (well speaking for myself, but guess you are the same) struggling to cope with horrible results. Let me know how you go
Posted 11 October 2011 - 03:22 PM
I didn't have a similar result, but I had a number of people actually recommend against the NT scan for this very reason as there are plenty of people who get a high risk result and their babies turn out to be completely fine. I had tentatively agreed with DP that the risk would have to be higher than 1:150 for me to get the CVS as I've heard risk of miscarriage can be 1:100. Having said that, if it had have got the result you did, I don't know that I would have wanted to spend the next 6 months worrying, so would probably prefer to get the CVS or amnio just to know for certain and then at least you have the facts, not just a 'maybe'.
I feel for you, as at this stage you just want reassurance that everything is perfect. But don't be too concerned as if you do a search you'll find so many examples of people with high risk whose babies turned out perfect. I hope it does for you too.

Hi AprilBaby
I really hope you don't mind me replying to your post. I am actually part of the Feb DIG but clicked on April by mistake (not so good using EB on my phone).
We have recently been through a similar situtation to you and thought I would reply.
We were 1:57 risk of DS for the same reason as you - high HCG hormones compared to lower PAPPA A (can't remember the exact levels now). This came as quite a shock as my age and the nuchal measurements were low risk.
I proceeded with having the CVS test done and while the procedure was not particulary nice and the 48 hour wait for the test results was tough thankfully everything came back fine.
High HCG compared to low PAPPA-A can be a possible indicator of a smaller baby or higher risk of pre-ecamplsia so I am having additional growth scans but given bub is measuring a week over my dates, so that all looks ok at this stage.
Not to sure where you are based but I had my CVS done at the Fetal Medicine unit at RPA, Sydney. The head of Fetal medicine acutally performed the test and everyone we saw - sonographers, OB, midwives and the genetic counselling they gave was very supportive.
I hope everything works out. Please ask your OB/Midwife as many questions as you can to make your decision on testing etc.
Again, I really hope you don`t mind me crashing in the April DIG and I wish you all the best.

Sorry to hear that. My friend has a DS baby, so we also know what it's like close up. Our results were low risk, but the doctor did say that even in high risk cases, most of the time, the result is that there is nothing wrong with the baby. It's just that they recommend testing CVS/Amnio if your results are less than 1:300 as that is the high risk cut off.
So, I would say don't be too distressed just yet and have a CVS so you know for sure and save yourself from unnecessary worrying. Am pretty sure your baby will be fine. I know someone who had a 1:10 risk and the CVS was all clear.
Posted 11 October 2011 - 04:17 PM
Hi AprilBaby I hope you don't mind me replying as I'm also not in your DIG, I'm in May. With DD2 we got a 1:60 risk of a chromosomal abnormality. We proceeded with CVS which was all clear and DD is now a gorgeous, healthy 11 month old. Personally in hindsight I wish we hadn't taken the risk of the CVS but we did and were lucky to not have any negative outcomes from it. But everyone has to make their own decision for their own reasons.
Did they check for a nasal bone? That is a very important factor when it comes to high risk results. If your bub has a nasal bone that is a very positive sign. I wish you all the best with whatever you decide to do.

I actually dont have my results - was told no news is good news so dont want to get a call this week.
If I do get told I do have a high risk then I will be going with the CVS.
As much as I'd hate to terminate if it was 100% confirmed, I dont think I or family could cope with a fully dependent child. I feel horrible saying that but its the truth.
Fingers crossed all you girls (and me) get the all clear.
Posted 11 October 2011 - 04:37 PM
Hello again,
Thank you for all the support. Its been a tricky afternoon but Im managing:)
PurpleNess: Thank you for such a fast reply. Im waiting on my OB to call and talk me through all my options. I defiantly want to undergo further testing but know that it can be risky. Unfortunately my DH is not contactable for a while (due to his work) so all the decisions are mine to make
chocmudcake: Its a horrible thing to be going through isnt it? So happy that everybody else is getting great results but it comes as a shock when you dont get one yourself. I am a year younger than you (24) so I thought I would be too young to get a potentially bad result. Please keep me updated with how things go with you.
CarlieB: There are so many decisions to make! I dont know what test I want to have yet. I have a really good OB so Im hoping he'll suggest/tell me what I should do. Amnio's scare me so much as I watched a dr stuff my mums up (resulting in my little sis been born at 24 weeks). I completely understand why people choose not to get the testing done, its a lot of stress for something that has a 178/179 chance of been ok.
Kya: Im so glad that you stumbled into the April DIG and very happy that everything worked out fine for you!! It's funny that you mention that the levels are a indicator of pre-ecamplisa, my mum was only telling me this morning that she had it when pregnant with my brother.
bbunny: I think having further testing will be the only thing that will put my mind at ease. Its nice to hear stories of people that had worse results than me and things worked out fine for them. Gives me hope
Posted 12 October 2011 - 10:15 AM
I totally understand where you are coming from… I had my 12week scan the day before going on holidays, thinking I would be able to relax and start to enjoy my pregnancy after receiving good results…I was wrong!!! Due to bloods (B.hCG 1.3300 PAPP-A 0.4100) and a thicker NT (2.87mm) I have been given a 1:16 chance of a baby with DS. We have already been through so many operations, procedures & miscarriages to get pregnant again and now this... I have just returned from our holiday (it was great to take my mind off things) and we are booked in for my Amnio next Thursday however we have been told it may still be too early to test. More waiting…and waiting…
Posted 12 October 2011 - 11:41 AM
Lou1: So sorry to hear. Could you do a CVS instead? It is done much earlier than an amnio.

It was too late for me to get the CVS done... The specialist looked over my scans and said they wouldn't be able to access the placenta to conduct that test. She is going to check next Thursday and apparently if the membranes are fused it's safe to do the Amnio at 15weeks. Will let you know how I go...
Posted 12 October 2011 - 12:19 PM
I see. Well, all the best anyway, and keep positive. Remember your odds are still in your favour that 15/16 , your baby is perfectly fine.
Posted 12 October 2011 - 02:43 PM
Thanks Bbunny it's true if someone told me I had a 16:1 chance to win lotto I would be pretty excited
Posted 12 October 2011 - 03:27 PM
Lou sorry to hear about your results, are you the Lou on clexarn as well? If so how odd because I had my NT scan yesterday it came back 3.99 so nearly 4. My bloods were okay but we got a 1:16 result. So the same as you. my husband begged me to have the CVS today. I am so worried it will cause a misscaridge I stopped all my drugs last night which alone could cause one. Such a scary time.
The CVS my OB said the results take 48 hours to come back but the OB doing the CVS said we would have them in 24? Has anyone had results sooner than 48 hours?
PS my baby is a pink one I have two boys now!
Posted 12 October 2011 - 07:13 PM
lou01 - good luck for next thursday hope all goes smoothly. Let us know how you get on.
TVB R36 - I had a CVS last Thursday and if I opted for FISH results they would have been back the next day they said. I choose to wait (CVS for age based risk only) Am hoping for results Friday but more likely will be Monday. Got my fingers crossed for you.
Posted 13 October 2011 - 06:33 AM
Thanks ttc3 I am so worried didn't sleep.
Posted 13 October 2011 - 06:34 AM
Sorry ttc3 I should have said good luck with your results.
Posted 13 October 2011 - 04:08 PM
Sorry your going through this i know how hard it can be as I was in the same situation last pg .
But my risk was 1 in 80, I chose to have a CVS straight away..... I had already decided in my mind if she did have DS it would not matter to me but I needed to know either way to make the pg easier.
A cvs has a slight increase of m/c but I rested for the following days and all was good and I had a very healthy little girl who is now 20months
This time around I chose to go straight for the cvs as I really didnt want the stress of the waiting for bloods and ultra sound results.
My results once again came back all clear and we are having another little boy so I can now enjoy my pg
I also got the FISH results within 24hours
Take care xx

AprilBaby & Lou - thinking of you both, fingers crossed all is OK.
I love bbunny's way of looking at things:
Remember your odds are still in your favour that 15/16 , your baby is perfectly fine.

We got our results they are not good and the babys heart beat is up at 245 so not looking at all good. Her heart was too high a few weeks ago as well but at the time I didn't panic maybe I should have.
Take care all good luck with your results.

Am so sorry to hear TVB. All the best and good luck with everything.

I'm so sorry to hear your news... You have been through so much already it's just not fair
I'm the Lou that's on Clexane...I'm going off the drugs Tuesday for my Thursday Amnio (scared about that also). Having heaps of trouble sleeping from all the added stress - We just want to know either way so we can move forward. I wish there was something I could do to help you through this hard time...stay strong and give your two boys loads of extra cuddles (my poor Miss M is so over me asking for cuddles all the time but it does help me stay strong).

FT-1 with manual focus lenses?
Jul 14, 2014
What is the real world useability of the V2/V3 with FT-1 and manual focus Nikon lenses? I have several AI and AI-s lenses I would want to use. Obviously autofocus won't work, but how easy is it to manually focus on the V2 or V3 viewfinder? What metering and exposure modes are supported? I shoot mostly in aperture-preferred, so want to confirm that will work with manual focus lenses in a manner similar to a Nikon DSLR.

SNL vet Chris Kattan 'was already acting weird during flight HOURS before DUI arrest'
Chris Kattan was so out of it during his DUI arrest on Monday in LA that a police officer had to steady him after he stumbled through his field sobriety test.
But on Wednesday TMZ reported the Saturday Night Live vet was already acting very strangely just hours earlier when he was on a flight into the city.
The 43-year-old came off as so loopy - he mumbled to himself as he paced up and down the aisle of First Class - that paramedics were called after the plane had landed.
Not guilty: Chris Kattan pleaded not guilty to DUI on Monday after crashing into a parked vehicle on the side of an LA freeway nearly three weeks ago
During the flight, two doctors that happened to be onboard as well tended to the actor.
Kattan had explained he had run out of his medicine and blamed the flight's three hour delay on his not being able to get more meds fast enough.
It was soon after landing that the Night At The Roxbury star got into his blue sedan and started weaving along the 101 freeway in the San Fernando Valley section of LA.
Not so funny: The 43-year-old was arrested after hitting a parked car on the side of the freeway
Sad: The actor looked embarrassed as he struggled through a field sobriety test
On edge: At the Movie 43 premiere in 2013
The comic eventually crashed into a parked Department Of Transportation vehicle that was parked behind cones on the side of the road, causing severe damage to his car. No one was hurt.
'I just got back from a 15hr flight after touring out of the country. I was exhausted. The Police were so kind,' he explained in a Monday tweet.
'I passed all tests, released without bail, have drivers license, cop offered to drive me home,' he added.
TMZ reported he told authorities after the car crash he had taken prescription drugs.
The incident occurred at 1 am. Police were called after a woman noticed another car, a Mercedes-Benz, was weaving and driving at a slow speed, according to TMZ.
But it was Kattan who caught the police's eye after he plowed through freeway cones to careen into that parked vehicle that was left at the side of the road, the site reported.
No one was inside the DOT vehicle and after the accident Chris emerged unharmed but not coherent.
The star's blue sedan was smashed in the front, with its bumper torn off after the collision, as seen in the video footage.
a white T-shirt with the print of a bird on it, and grey Free City
sweatpants, the personality appeared to be under dressed for the cool
winter night.
On the video posted by TMZ, The How I Met Your Mother guest star looked like he was in shock as he held his hands in front of him and tried to not make eye contact with a highway patrol officer.
When asked to walk in a straight line, the celebrity stumbled after two steps, waving his hands in the air and nearly falling over.
The policeman had to help steady him.
My how he's changed: In his 2014 mug shot (left) and in 2006 at the Adam And Steve premiere (right)
A lot of damage: The comedian hit a parked car crushing the front of his blue sedan, but no one was hurt
Clean up: Crews were called to the scene to sweep up the debris after the 1 am crash
Kattan was then arrested and booked into the Van Nuys jail.
Chris is best known not just for his 10 years on SNL, during which he worked with everyone from Gwyneth Paltrow to Steve Martin.
But he also had a
movie career, which included the 1998 hit Night At The Roxbury with SNL
collaborator Will Ferrell and 2013's Movie 43.
The LA native has three films ready for release: ImagiGARY with Jack Briggs and Charlie McDermott - he plays Officer Jones; Walk Of Fame with Scott Eastwood and Jamie Kennedy - he stars as Alejandro; and the short film Passenger with Justine Wachsberger.
He was a movie star at one point: In 1998's Night At The Roxbury with Will Ferrell (far left)
The actor has been working steadily since he got his start in the LA theater group The Groundlings in the early '90s. His father was also a member.
Kattan's mother Hajnalka Biro was a Playboy model.
The star has been in several relationships with other comedians. He dated fellow SNL star Maya Rudolph who he was spotted with on carpets often. In 1999 he was with Jennifer Gimenez, then in 2011 he dated Jennifer Coolidge.
In 2008 he married model Sunshine Deia Tutt, who he divorced the following year.

Citi Takes LEED Pre-Certification To The Bank
Citi has announced that it is the first company to achieve LEED pre-certification for a retail commercial interior prototype through a pilot USGBC program.
Three new CitiFinancial branches in Austin, Texas, Flint, Mich., and Warrington, Penn., are the first Citi branches to be certified in this pilot program, and 27 other CitiFinancial and Citibank branches were designed with the same features and are in the process of pursuing LEED certification.
The 30 new branches include low-flow plumbing fixtures; energy-efficient office equipment; automatic lights; and carpet, desks, seating, fabrics and cabinetry made from recycled materials.
Citi, which has pledged to reduce GHG emissions 10 percent by 2011, was awarded LEED Gold certification for a new 15-story skyscraper in New York City (video tour here) and the company has registered several additional projects, including new data centers in Texas and Frankfurt, Germany, with the USGBC to pursue LEED certification.
A virtual tour of Citi's green prototype branch is available here. And here's an interesting tour of the green features of First Federal Savings Bank in Mishawaka, Ind.
Reader Comments
PNC bank has over 100+ LEED rated branches and a Platinum HQ. Citi and the rest are scrambling to keep up. It's great to see this kind of race to the top. Now quit funsing mountain top removal coal mining!

Ubuntu Touch and Tizen phones a no-show for 2014
Will anyone ever be able to break Android and iOS's stranglehold on the mobile landscape? Last year we saw signs that 'someone' might just be able to threaten them, with the first demonstrations of phones running Firefox OS, Tizen and Ubuntu Touch. But just when we were hoping that 2014 might be the breakthrough year, those hopes have quickly been dashed.

Where did all those people come from?
Everyone was crammed in among the vines on Saturday for the annual Marlborough Wine and Food Festival. And they all seemed to have a great time.
Other than a rugby match, I can't remember the last time I saw so many people in one place, especially the huge number of under-30s. Don't usually see them around, but from a show of hands in the crowd at one stage it seemed a fair chunk were visitors. There were enough oldies there that I didn't feel out of place, though.
This was my first time at the festival and I had no idea what to expect. Nothing I've been to before prepared me for the scale of the set-out, with wine and food stalls surrounding the venue, looking down into the central area with the shade tent, the stage, and the huge open area packed with people.
The wineries had gone to huge effort to make their tents something special, with lounging areas, big bars, and matching outfits, such as everyone on the Saint Clair booth wearing mock clerical garb.
The standard of dress among the crowd was also remarkably high, particularly the young women, but apparently that's because anyone who enters the fashion in the field competition gets in for nothing.
Hats were part of the gear for most people and one of the women in the Wellington Ukulele Orchestra congratulated the crowd for wearing hats to keep off the rays.
It was so hot. The temperature must have been in the high 20s and there wasn't much wind. The pond along one side of the ground was being well used by people to cool off. Most paddled in it, but I saw more than one going in for a plunge. Mighty brave of them considering the water was muddy brown with all the people wading through.
It was a happy crowd, obviously relaxed by the heat, the wine, and the atmosphere. That heat could easily have caused dehydration for some people, but there was plenty of water to drink and volunteers in brown shirts were squirting it out of back-pack dispensers for anyone who looked like they might be thirsty.
The Ukulele Orchestra was one of the big attractions of the festival for me. I'm a fan and wasn't disappointed. Everyone down by the stage was enjoying them and the people up on the bank by the tents were also taking in the music from a distance.
I didn't get into the food tents, but apparently the demonstrations were good. A show of hands suggested there were a few Marlborough people, mostly out-of-towners and a good few internationals as well.
The biggest drudge of the whole day was walking back to the carpark, which was quite a hike in the heat. I was surprised how few cars were parked for a crowd that size, but then the bus operation was running so efficiently. I was lucky enough to have a sober driver (thanks, Em).
So my first wine festival is out of the way and I'm already looking forward to the next one. Think I'll get some friends from down south together and bring them up next year to show the region off.
No better time to do it.

All this week on his "Faith and Freedom" radio program, Liberty Counsel's Mat Staver has been interviewing ex-gay activist Janet Boynes, who today recommended that Christian parents never allow their gay child to bring their partner or spouse into their home, warning that acceptance of such relationships is a sign of the "Last Days."
Boynes said that parents should never cave and allow their children to bring a same-sex partner home for Christmas or Thanksgiving or to a family wedding because "anything outside of a man and a woman is a civil union."
"That is not a marriage," she said, "and so we have to not allow ourself to get so confused and realize that the Bible talks about these things are going to happen in the Last Days. We have to have a better understanding that the Bible talks about in the Last Days, these things are going to happen and trust God that he has an answer for everything in his word."
Christian parents must tell their gay child, Boynes said, that "we believe marriage is between a man and a woman and for this reason, we will not allow you and your same-sex partner to be in the house." The child should be welcome to come home any time, she stated, with the understanding that "your same-sex partner cannot come to our home and our holidays as a couple."
Straight siblings, on the other hand, should be more than welcome to come home as a couple "because they are heterosexual [and] they're doing things right," but gay relationships are "unacceptable ... in the world of God."

Electrical engineer Charles Sharman noticed several years ago that as they got older, the children he taught at Sunday School tended to migrate from Lego and other building toys to video games. He wanted them to keep creating, so he started a company called Seven:Twelve Engineering and began designing a building toy that could hold the attention of these older kids. That toy is called Crossbeams, and it can be used to design and assemble a huge range of toys – including big, detailed, moving cars and helicopters.Read More

The Boston Celtics had an extra-long table lined up for their post-draft news conference Friday, a day after they picked six players.
The Boston Celtics are heading into NBA free agency looking to make a splash and bring in a legitimate star. There are a few different players that they could target, but bringing in a big man would be ideal. Danny Ainge has always been aggressive and that will not change this offseason. Show More Summary
The 2016 NBA draft would classify as chaotic if everybody didn't enter Thursday night expecting madness. Once the Boston Celtics selected Jaylen Brown with the No. 3 pick, all bets were off. Any mock drafts intact eventually went into flames from pick No. Show More Summary
Boston failed to make a big splash again, annoying an antsy fanbase looking for payoff for their many assets. But the Celtics still have the luxury of patience. The Boston Celtics have 12 players under contract from a 48-win team that posted a top-10 offense and a top-5 defense. Show More Summary
It won't make disgruntled Boston Celtics fans any happier, but the disappointing draft night that materialized Thursday was always a possibility. Boston, in theory, controlled the 2016 NBA draft. It had eight picks, the most any team has owned since the draft became a two-round affair in 1989, according to ESPN Stats & Info. Show More Summary
Heading into the 2016 NBA Draft the world appeared to be at the Boston Celtics' fingertips. They held the No. 3 pick, the No. 16 pick, the No. 23 picks and five second-round picks, including Nos. 31 and 35. Boston had more draft capital than anyone and was poised to use it to get a lot better. Show More Summary
The Notre Dame point guard fell far in the draft and will end up with Boston in the middle of the second round. With the No. 45 pick pick in the 2016 NBA Draft, the Boston Celtics have chosen Notre Dame's Demetrius Jackson, marking the second straight year a Fighting Irish point guard has gone in the draft after Jerian Grant was taken 19th in 2015. Show More Summary
Davis was considered a possible lottery pick, but slipped all the way out of the first round. With the No. 31 pick the 2016 NBA Draft, the Boston Celtics have selected Deyonta Davis. Davis was promptly traded to the Memphis Grizzlies, according to Yahoo! Sports. Show More Summary
The Boston Celtics sent a variety of shockwaves through the first round of Thursday's NBA draft and left their fans with plenty of questions. But the biggest surprise they sprung was with the No. 16 pick, which they used on Frenchman Guerschon Yabusele, a 6-foot-8, 275-pound power forward largely expected to be stashed overseas for the immediate […]
Many consider the Boston Celtics one of the biggest losers of the 2016 NBA draft because the team landed No. 3, meaning Danny Ainge and the front office miss out on Ben Simmons and Brandon Ingram. It's a fair assessment, but ignoresShow More Summary
The Celtics took the Croatian big man late in the first round. With the 23rd-overall pick in the 2016 NBA Draft, the Boston Celtics selected Ante Zizic, a traditional center standing 6'11 and hailing from Croatia. Zizic may not be well-known for casual fans, but he's been on the radar of NBA teams for years. Show More Summary
The Celtics shock by drafting the French big man. The Boston Celtics selected Guerschon Yabusele, a 20-year-old big man out of France, with the No. 16 overall pick in the 2016 NBA Draft on Thursday night. Yabusele wasn't expected to go this high but leaps over some bigger names to join No. Show More Summary
The NBA Draft can be filled with high and lows for all fans. This Boston Celtics pick was a low for our buddy here. To be fair, Celtics fans never seem to know who their team just drafted. What a disappointing evening for him. @rodger_sherman he went in with high hopes pic.twitter.com/Mt761E7frc — Yachty's Lawyer Pat (@david_jn1) June 24, 2016
The Los Angeles Lakers followed by selecting Duke's Brandon Ingram, and the Boston Celtics made the first unexpected pick of the night: California forward Jaylen Brown at No. 3.
It was a minor surprise when the Boston Celtics selected wing Jaylen Brown out of Cal with the third overall pick of the NBA Draft Thursday night. Perhaps more surprising still for many basketball fans was hearing that Brown is entering...Show More Summary
The Boston Celtics added an intriguing young piece to their core in Thursday's NBA draft by selecting California forward Jaylen Brown with the No. 3 overall pick. Twitter had plenty to say about Boston's choice, which was the first wild-card...Show More Summary
With the Chicago Bulls shopping guard Jimmy Butler, per Adrian Wojnarowski of The Vertical, a source told K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune on Thursday that the Boston Celtics have been in talks with the Bulls and have included guard...Show More Summary
The Boston Celtics have selected Jaylen Brown with the third pick in NBA draft.
The Boston Celtics and Chicago Bulls are reportedly discussing a trade centered around Jimmy Butler, according to the Chicago Tribune's K.C. Johnson, and Boston could ship Jae Crowder to the Windy City if the two sides strike a deal. Johnson reported Thursday night that Crowder "has been involved" in the trade talks. More to follow.

Forest Footprint Disclosure Annual Review Shames BP, Shell, ExxonMobil, Others
Forest Footprint Disclosure has criticized leading oil and gas companies including BP, Chevron, ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips, Royal Dutch Shell, Total and Valero Energy for their lack of disclosure regarding their forest use.
The companies all failed to disclose information of their forest use in 2011 for the third year, and Petrobas – which was first invited to participate in 2010 – failed to disclose for the second, according to FFD's Annual Review 2011.
However, Greenergy International Ltd, which led the oil and gas sector in the review, was also one of the most improved companies overall in terms of the depth of their disclosure, according to FFD.
The nonprofit also welcomed first time submissions from Johnson & Johnson, Tesco UK and The Walt Disney Company.
The leaders named in each sector are as follows:
Basic materials: Stora Enso Oyj
Clothing accessories & footware: Nike Inc.
Food & drug retailers: J. Sainsbury plc
Food products & soft drinks: Nestle SA and Unilever (joint leaders)
General retailers: Marks and Spencer plc
Industrials, construction & autos: Dalhoff Larsen & Horneman
Personal care & household goods: Kimberly-Clark Corporation
Travel & leisure: British Airways
Farming & fishing: Grupo Andre Maggi

"According to a recent announcement from Amazon, one-fourth of the top 100 best-selling books available for its Kindle ereader are from "indie" publishers," says Barbara Tucker, Associate Professor of Communication, who will teach the epublishing class which starts next week. "Some of us want our work to be available to a wider public; some of us want to write the next important novel; some of us just want to learn what this epublishing stuff is all about," she said.
Epublishing is making a book (or writing of any length) available for reading on Kindles, Nooks, iPhones, and other brands of ereaders. Self-epublishing bypasses producing the printed copy of the book and deals only in the digital world—the book never becomes a physical book, but it is still published and available. The most well-known method is through Amazon's Kindle Direct Publishing; Barnes and Noble also has a popular program called Nook Press, and there are other companies called aggregators that will allow the author who wants to self-publish to make the work available for brands of ereaders other than Nooks and Kindles.
"Indie" publishing is the new word for self-publishing, especially in the epublishing, digital world. Self-publishing is losing some of its negative connotations of the past as more venues for writers are becoming accessible. Epublishing can be lucrative, if an "indie" publisher knows how to use the Internet, social media, and other methods to market his or her work.
The course at Dalton State College will be offered in hybrid format on Tuesdays from 9:25 to 10:40 am during the spring semester. The first class is Tuesday, January 7. Among topics to be covered are: the epublishing world, putting your work into formats for ereaders, editing your work, and marketing your book once it's available for ereaders.
Ms. Tucker is a member of the Chattanooga Writers Guild, a published novelist in traditional and self-epublishing modes, a leader of a writers group that meets in Ft. Oglethorpe, and blogger.
Registration for non-credit students is underway now. Those wanting to know more are invited to contact Dr. Randall Griffus at firstname.lastname@example.com or 706/272-2509, or Sarah Key at email@example.com or 706/272-4556.
