APTOS — An estimated 14,200 students are enrolled at Cabrillo College this semester, about 600 more than in the fall but a roughly 3 percent drop from last spring, officials said.
Cabrillo spokeswoman Kristin Fabos provided the enrollment update Monday after the college"s Board of Trustees first meeting of the spring semester. Monday also was the first day of classes for students enrolled at its campuses in Aptos, Watsonville and Scotts Valley.
The newly hired interim president sat in on his first board meeting, following a flurry of meetings with faculty, staff and student groups to better familiarize himself with the inner workings of the campus.
John Hendrickson will serve in his role for up to six months, as board members continue searching for a permanent replacement.
Alan Smith, one of several board members who sits on the search committee, said a brochure outlining specific qualities and qualifications for the new president will be completed this week, with applications available by April. Interviews with select candidates will be held the following month, with hopes of bringing the new president on board by July or August.
Details of the state budget are still being worked out, but Gov. Jerry Brown has proposed spending millions more on higher education in 2013-14. Hendrickson expressed optimism for the future, saying after the meeting that the community college system could be reaching "a golden age."
Paul Harvell, president of the Cabrillo College Federation of Teachers, made a similar observation during the meeting, saying faculty feel as if they are "a world away from where we were a semester ago, where they were looking at huge budget cuts and a reduction in students."
Now, he said, they"re "looking at more financial stability and financial restorations and growth. The mood is no longer in crisis (mode) but how to move forward."
Board members also listened to results of an audit conducted on its 2011-12 financial and bond measure reports, and received an update on the facilities master plan, set to be discussed next month in further detail.
Consultant Lori O"Keefe presented preliminary figures that showed relatively slow growth during the next several years. In the fall census, for example, 14,457 students were enrolled at Cabrillo"s three campuses, and that number is expected to rise by only several hundred by 2015-16. But O"Keefe"s figures showed greater growth through 2025.

Australian political forum to discuss politics and current affairs from an Australian perspective.
Tamil asylum seekers held at sea will be taken to camp on Australian mainland
Exclusive: Blow for Australia's hardline policy as 157 people held at sea to be taken to Curtin detention centre
http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/j ... nland-camp
Answering with spin and lies and getting a bit testy on being asked pointed questions.
Sending Sri Lankans to a third country is a big worry. Not sure of the legalities involved in that. Morrison is being deliberately vague and evasive with his answers.
All the details -
http://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2 ... t-sea-live
The minister just admonised(sic) the "false reporting" of others for the initial incorrect reports that there were 153 rather than 157 asylum seekers. This is a curious response, given the culture of secrecy surrounding boat arrivals and the refusal of the government to confirm or deny turnback operations.
We are now back to that familiar phrase: "For the past seven months not a single successful venture."
The minister is also refusing to say whether the incident will be classed as a boat arrival under the Operation Sovereign Borders.
Three peak Australian medical bodies have renewed calls for the establishment of an independent medical advisory body to audit the treatment of asylum seekers in detention, following shocking evidence at the national inquiry into children in immigration detention on Thursday.
The Australian government is telling refugees in Nauru outright lies about the reality of life in impoverished Cambodia, which has been ruled by a ruthless dictator for almost 30 years.
Its efforts are outlined in an extraordinary five-page document, "Settlement in Cambodia Fact Sheet", which was issued to refugees and obtained by Crikey.
You can read the document here.
But it appears the Abbott government has a strange understanding of "facts".
The document states that the first flight to Phnom Penh will be as early as April 20, which is next Monday. It was last updated on April 10.
Yet Crikey understands from a number of sources that there has been no interest from refugees currently in the Nauru refugee camp and that as of last week, the Cambodian government had received no applications for resettlement. It is also understood that extraordinary pressure is being applied by the Department of Immigration and Border Protection — the result of pressure from cabinet — on detainees in an effort to get "some bums on planes", as one insider put it.
The document states that the average monthly wage in Cambodia is $130 and that "residents have a good standard of living". Only in Canberra can anyone think that $130 a month buys a good standard of living anywhere.
Decent working people I know in Phnom Penh live three to a tiny room, have no indoor plumbing, and bare wood or dirt floors. And these are not the poor people.
The fact sheet states that Cambodia is safe. It is not, especially after dark. I personally know at least three people who have been mugged in the past year, including one female friend. On my second-to-last visit — I have been about 10 times in the past two years — thieves on a moving bike tried to wrest my mobile phone from me while I was travelling in a tuk tuk. Oddly, the document states that here are no problems with stray dogs — again an outright fib.
The document says that Cambodia is a democracy, yet Prime Minister Hun Sen took charge — after 12 years of coexisting with rivals — in a coup d'etat. While there have been elections since, Hun Sen has never lost. The opposition and aid groups audited the last election and found multiple irregularities, including ghost voters and opposition supporters missing from the rolls. The legal and prison system is utterly corrupt, something I also know from first-hand experience trying to help a friend trapped in the system.
The fact sheet states — twice! — that Cambodia has "good healthcare for the region". More nonsense: anyone with anything serious is medi-vacced to Bangkok. Only Laos and Myanmar have worse healthcare in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations.
Then there is the money being thrown at the problem. Refugees are promised four years of housing, healthcare, education, Khmer lessons and support, all paid for by the Australian taxpayer, yet we do not get any of the benefit of these people's enterprise.
After laying out a Cambodia that only exists in the minds of Canberra bureaucrats, the documents then details packages worth tens of thousands of dollars in a last-ditch effort to convince some of them to move to Cambodia under the highly questionable resettlement deal (decried by the United Nations) that Australia struck with Hun Sen last year.
The fact sheet also states that Australia will make efforts for refugees to be reunited with their families if they move to Cambodia (the packages could be worth well in excess of $100,000 in family cases).
The deal with Cambodia was inked by former immigration minister Scott Morrison in an embarrassing ceremony during which he swilled champagne with Hun Sen's cabinet ministers.
Details have never been released to the Australian taxpayer, although it is understood a payment of at least $40 million will be made to Hun Sen's government, which has an audited track record of embezzling aid funding. About 50% of Cambodia's budget comes from foreign aid. Its government heavies live in high-security places, and most of its population lives in poverty. It is the second-poorest country per capita in south-east Asia and may soon be overtaken by Myanmar, which is now outstripping it in GDP growth.
Hundreds of thousands of Cambodians work illegally in neighbouring Thailand — some are enslaved in that country's notorious human trafficking industry, which Thailand's present government finally seems to be targeting. There are few jobs for university graduates, and the country's main exports industry, the chronically underpaid garment trade, is home to some of Asia's most notorious sweatshops.
In the period since the grubby deal with the Abbott government was signed, Cambodia has shown its refugee colours. Dozens of Christian Montagnards from Vietnam fleeing persecution have been returned, while many more remain in hiding from Hun Sen's thugs. But the fact sheet cheerfully insists: "In Cambodia, there are jobs for migrants, and strong support networks for newly settled refugees, including opportunities to buy businesses."
The real kicker is that once they have agreed to resettle in Cambodia, the Australian government washes its hands of the refugees. The only country that can have them back is Nauru, a questionable position, like much of Australia's refugee policy.
The Cambodian government has a track record of returning refuges to their original country of persecution. The country is offering to take the refugees from Nauru for one reason only: millions of dollars from Australia.
Any government and bureaucracy capable of attempting to barter its shameful human cargo with such lies and blandishments has clearly chucked its moral compass overboard
http://www.crikey.com.au/2015/04/16/exc ... -cambodia/
An open letter alleging abuse of detainees on Nauru and government inaction could have far reaching legal consequences, and strengthens the hand of any victim who wants to sue the Commonwealth, writes Greg Barns.
The significance of the open letter signed by 24 individuals who are, or have worked, at the Nauru detention centre, is not only political but legal.
Let us leave the political consequences to one side and focus on the latter because the letter appears to suggest that the Commonwealth, which has a non-delegable duty of care to asylum seekers in detention onshore and offshore, has knowingly breached that duty.
Scott Morrison knew of Nauru abuse a year before government acted, inquiry told
The then immigration minister was made personally aware of allegations of a sexual assault by a cleaner against an asylum seeker in November 2013, Senate inquiry hears
Elsewhere, asylum seekers were found to have swallowed nail clippers on Nauru, while two people digested insect repellent due to stress in January and Feburary of 2014 in the Northern Territory.
One asylum seeker was bitten by a snake in Western Australia in the notoriously harsh Curtin detention centre in Feburary 2014.
On Nauru, raw sewage sprayed uncontrollably onto a worker in September 2013. A contractor received an electric shock when he plugged in his phone on the island in January 2014. A contractor's legs were crushed when moving a vending machine in November 2013, and another worker witnessed a drowning on the small island, resulting in psychological trauma.
In the department's Canberra headquarters, an immigration worker suffered anxiety after being stuck in a lift for 45 minutes. Another worker fell off a desk chair in October 2013 and another received an electric shock from a toaster in July 2013.
In many cases, Comcare did not investigate incidents that involved asylum seekers, including one where an asylum seeker was found unconscious on a bed.
A Comcare spokesman said these cases did not fall under the Work Health and Safety Act and were therefore "non-notifiable".
Greg Barnes, a lawyer with the Australian Lawyers Alliance, said the number of incidents was "extremely high" given the nature of the work carried out.
"Here we are talking about workplaces which don't involve construction or mining," he said. "These are meant to be detention centres where workers and detainees are in a vulnerable position and where workplace injuries should be kept to an absolute minimum."
Mr Barnes said the department seemed to take it upon itself to decide which incidents were notifiable to Comcare.
An Immigration Department spokeswoman said it took the protection and safety of all people at detention centres seriously.
"The department has a robust framework of training, reporting, risk identification, physical and psychological risk management, rehabilitation and early intervention that is designed to reduce injury," she said.
A Comcare spokesman said it had made recommendations to the department on improving work health and safety practices and the department had acted on these.
"Comcare assessed all of the 449 incidents [the department] referred to us in 2013-14, finding 98 were notifiable under the [Work Health and Safety Act]," he said.
He said self-harm may not satisfy the definition of a "notifiable" incident under the act, but deaths, serious injury and illnesses did.
"Our inspectors also visited regional processing centres on Manus, Nauru and Christmas islands on multiple occasions in 2014 and will conduct further inspections later this year."
"You can't mitigate the harm [to detainees in offshore detention], because the system is designed to create a negative mental state. It's designed to produce suffering. If you suffer, then it's punishment. If you suffer, you're more likely to agree to go back to where you came from. By reducing the suffering you're reducing the functioning of the system… Everybody [working in the centres] accepts that this is the policy… the only thing you can do is work within the parameters of the policy."
Open letter regarding the Border Force Act 2015
Today the Border Force Act comes into force. It includes provision for a two-year jail sentence for "entrusted persons" such as ourselves if we continue to speak out about the deplorable state of human rights in immigration detention without the express permission of the minister for immigration and border protection. This strengthens the wall of secrecy which prevents proper public scrutiny.
We have advocated, and will continue to advocate, for the health of those for whom we have a duty of care, despite the threats of imprisonment, because standing by and watching sub-standard and harmful care, child abuse and gross violations of human rights is not ethically justifiable.
If we witness child abuse in Australia we are legally obliged to report it to child protection authorities
If we witness child abuse in Australia we are legally obliged to report it to child protection authorities. If we witness child abuse in detention centres, we can go to prison for attempting to advocate for them effectively. Internal reporting mechanisms such as they are have failed to remove children from detention; a situation that is itself recognised as a form of systematic child abuse.
Evidence of the devastating effects of institutional self-protection and blindness to child abuse has been presented before the current royal commission. We are determined not to collude with a system that repeats these same mistakes.
We are aware that in publishing this letter we may be prosecuted under the Border Force Act and we challenge the department to prosecute so that these issues may be discussed in open court and in the full view of the Australian public.

Mimi + Miguel = #Beautiful
Been listening to this all day. Sasha was on Dean and me right away this morning about it too. She mentioned that Mimi's voice is still amazing. I had to be the c-nt bitch to wonder if, um, she could throw this down live.
It's a GREAT song. In spite of that stupid f-cking hashtag. And some are already calling it the song of the summer.
I like...
That Mimi makes us wait for her before she comes in.
That it's not a song you necessarily have to crank up in the car at noon with the windows rolled down because EVERYONE MUST SEE YOU. It's more like something you play at dusk on your way home from a super chill day at the beach and you're looking forward to seeing your friends in a few hours again for dinner for one of those nights where there is no dread, no deadlines, and no alarm to set before you go sleep.
Also... it's not 8 F-CKING MINUTES LONG.
Now we'll see how she finds a way to throw this in Nicki's face on Idol.
PS. In my daydreams when I'm listening, I'm in an Audi with Robert Downey Jr.

West Coast Pilsner
One of our favorite pilsner-style recipes. We use a blend of Saaz hops from the start to the finish. This gives the beer lots of flavour and aroma ... but not too bitter. It's very similar to the urquel beer but not with the same yeast. We also use a small amount of specialty grains to give this beer a little more body. Still golden in color but with a touch more body.

No matter if you're part of the art or geek scene, light painting has become a recent trend blending the two. The medium has evolved to something more than just waving flashlights in front of a camera with a long exposure. It requires an understanding of photography as well as the hardware and software that make these projects possible.
The trend of using a "light wand," or and LED RGB light strip, began with a group of artists that wanted to map urban WiFi signals. This project created a visual landscape of technology we couldn't see before, giving perspective on something we use everyday. After the release of art group's video, it branched out into something else entirely—geeks and artists alike were creating floating pixelated images.
The LightScythe project was one of the first to be directly influenced by the art initiative. But rather than mapping WiFi signals, he used the concept of the light wand and a camera set to a high exposure time to create floating images and text. To anyone not aware of the tech behind the trick, it seems as if the future of holograms is already here. In reality, it's a light stick being slowly moved across a designated space while a camera takes a photo at a long exposure setting.
The hardware behind it all can be easily ordered from any online electronics shop: A 2 meter programmable LED RGB light strip, acrylic tube to put it in, receiver to hookup to the light strip, laptop (with and Xbee link) to send images to the receiver, and a battery pack to power the light. To execute the entire operation, the LightScythe developer used Arduino code (which is usually coupled with one of its programmable boards, but it's uncertain if he used the board as well).
Another user who became interested in light painting, but through the LightScythe, continued the evolution of this art form with the development of a more elegant system. He utilized a MicroSD to store bitmap images, so no receivers or laptop required out in the field. This user also outfitted an LCD screen to his box, which displays battery life, how wide the Bitmap is, and how long it will take to display the entire thing. In order to prep the bitmaps, he used a matlab script to plot everything out. For the non-programmers, there are other light stick DIY projects that use spreadsheets to plot out images. The board and code used in this version were all Arduino.
This geek meets urban art scene is only a fraction of what viewers can expect to see. Just a little while ago, there was an art initiative to "Snake the Planet." A group took the classic arcade game Snake to the streets via a 3D projection mapping, which allowed them to create custom levels on buildings thanks an open source toolkit called openFrameworks. All possible through supportive open source communities and the viral nature of the internet. I can't wait to see what's next.

A clever and painstaking, fan-crafted trailer for "Prometheus"
This Travis Betz trailer came by way of Keith M, one of our ace IT managers, a movie aficianado and lover of turtles. While not quite as amusing as the "Dark Knight Rises/Lion King" mashup trailer, it's pretty darn remarkable.
Where do people find the time? Forget "Prometheus," that's the real space-time quandary.

Adopt - A - Highway Contacts
Volunteers Needed!
Ohio is a beautiful state and has one of the most efficient and safe highway systems in the nation. Every year, Ohio becomes more populated and the volume of traffic increases, which leads to an increase of litter. The Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Recycling & Litter Prevention conducted a study during the fall of 2003 and the spring of 2004, and discovered that the total annual estimated roadside litter in Ohio for all road types and interchanges is 11,772 tons.
The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) maintains thousands of miles of roadway, 152 rest areas and 11 travel information centers to make travel more pleasant. Each year, within District 7 alone, over 20 tons of trash is collected from our highways. This is an important and costly job to keep our state beautiful. Unfortunately, more needs to be done.
You Can Help
The Adopt-A-Highway Program enables ODOT to save taxpayer dollars and allows communities and residents of Ohio to help keep their state clean and free from litter. The program allows ODOT work crews more time to devote to its core functions, including road maintenance and construction projects. Each group that adopts a highway saves ODOT approximately $800 in litter pick up costs per year.
You, along with friends and neighbors, can agree to "adopt" a highway. Volunteer to clean up a two-mile stretch of highway, at least four times a year, you can keep Ohio's roads attractive and free of litter. In addition to cleaning roadways in your community, you are creating a partnership with others, which helps to foster civic pride.
In addition to helping keep our roadways free of litter, your group can draw positive media coverage by participating in the program. As an extra incentive, ODOT places green signs on the section of highway that has been "adopted". These signs are inscribed with the adopting group's name and placed at each end of their two-mile section.

The Adopt-A-Highway Program began during the summer of 1989 and went statewide in March of 1990. Since 1989, thousands of volunteers have joined forces through ODOT's Adopt-A-Highway program to help keep Ohio's scenic views clean. Each year, ODOT spends an average of $5 million specifically on litter removal.

I found these lovelies at an Estate Sale and was very surprised. Love at First Glimpse! The colors were remarkable and leather. What really got me excited was the size. 8.5! Now for any of you who collect-to-wear, finding a "larger" size in a vintage shoe, is VERY EXCITING.
One small problem...they are AA meaning, unless you have snake like slender feet you will be pulling an page out of the Ugly Step Sister book.
Just wanted to show and tell. As well as ask anyone from Shoe Land if they had any further information about these shoes and maybe even a value. Thanks!

Seriously... can you guys get your stuff together?
I have the right cable.
I have the right firewire chipset.
I have the latest version of Universal Control installed that was released on Dec. 20, 2017.
The drivers don't seem to load properly into Windows half the time. Sometimes the unit works flawlessly. And, like right now... I can't open my DAW without any other app not being able to use my interface for sound. I can't open up the advanced options when I go to playback devices and properties for my firestudio project because it's not even there. Sometimes I can see it. That's when everything works beautifully.
Now, if I close my daw I don't get my system sound back.
I have to restart and unplug to try and get the device to resync. Or just restart my pc.
I'm thinking a better idea is to throw this unit in the trash and move on. Pretty unfortunate since it's a good unit when things work well. These issues are just getting in the way of my being productive. Productivity is the most valuable thing and anything that stands in the way is useless. So... what the hell do I do? I am NOT BUYING another cable. I've replaced those enough times already only for the same weird issues to persist.
I just want things to work. I can't see myself buying another Presonus interface if the drivers are not going to be up to par with the hardware.....
Noise Implant - Auditory and Visual Stimulation
Here is what I get in the properties.
No advanced panel is visible.
These are the latest drivers. I just checked against the release notes.
Noise Implant - Auditory and Visual Stimulation
universal control acts like an application has control of it even though I don't have anything open.
Noise Implant - Auditory and Visual Stimulation
Things are working as intended.
Except that now I have an insane amount of static and crackling on my inputs.
I had this problem before and it went away for a while. And, now it's back.
.... I just wanna make some music, man.
Noise Implant - Auditory and Visual Stimulation
You know what... There is no point. I've gone from Windows 7 to 10 and it's been nothing but issues with the FSP. Time to retire this unit and give up on firewire completely in Windows 10 I think. I was up to 6:30 am last night and made zero progress lol. That's just money down the drain right there.
Noise Implant - Auditory and Visual Stimulation
I have the right cable.
I can understand your frustration. We have all been there. But we need more detail to be able to help. I have helped many a user that told me they were on the most current version when they were not. The devil is in the details.
If you still want help, I need to ask that you list the actual version numbers, cable connections, firewire chip, OS processor info, etc etc.
FWIW, when working in a daw, it is by design that the daw takes total control of audio output. That behavior is normal and expected.
On the surface, your problem seems to be firewire related. That could be the card in the pc, the cable, or the jacks on the back of the FSP. Bear in mind, there are FW chips in the approved list that perform sporadically in certain environments.
To Matt's point regarding info. Click on the hyperlink in my signature to create a signature of your own that has specs.
Kind Regards,
Please add your specs to your SIGNATURE.

I know this don't help much but I run 2 FP´s on my Win 10 64 bit system and it IS working
Best thing for you to do if the forum community has any chance to help you will be to add your signature (system, brand of firewire card, cable type (4 pin,6 pin ?) ect. ect. then people in here have a much better understanding of your particular problem and hopefully able to help better

I know, I posted an extremely detailed thread of what I have done and tried to get this stupid thing working, and I got nothing.
The best I have right now is my FSP works, but all the options in the Launcher are greyed out, and the Launcher does NOT detect my new OHcCI card, but the newest version of the OCHI Tool DOES.
I've written to Presonus Tech Support telling them in my very first Sentence that I own a Presonus Firestudio Project 10x10, and Tech support replied telling me they don't support the Firestudio 26x26
They can't even be arsed to read my tech question, asnd instead respond telling me an entirely different model than the one I asked about is not supported.
My thread compiled each and every troubleshooting step that I pieced together throughout the forums and still no luck, I guess I'll have to live with the semi-functioning drivers and Launcher.
This is definitely my first and last Presonus Purchase though.
matthewgorman wroteI traded in two guitars for an RME Babyface Pro and have zero issues now. I'm pretty sure Windows 10 doesn't have the proper driver support anymore for legacy firewire drivers. You can't even install the old legacy drivers in the current version of windows.I have the right cable.
Noise Implant - Auditory and Visual Stimulation
Let's stay on facts. I got two Firestudio Projects up and running right in front of me.
Win 10 64bit Home.
If you look in this thread, you will see a link how to add your signatur.
As it is now it sounds as you are guessing and that is not good for anyone.
The Babyface Pro I got works much better than the firestudio was for me. So, I am not going to bother troubleshooting anymore. I've been through multiple PCs all the way from Windows 7 to 10 with the FSP and it's always had intermittent issues. Not really interested in putting anymore time into troubleshooting what should be working after trying different firewire chipsets and cables and not being able to come to some kind of long-term resolution.

Ovolactovegetarians, who are also known as lacto-ovovegetarians, are vegetarians who do not eat fish, poultry, or red meat but accept eggs, milk, and honey as part of their diet on the grounds that these foods can be obtained without killing the animals who produce them. The ovo- part of the name comes from the Latin word for egg, while lacto- is derived from the Latin word for milk. In the West, ovolactovegetarians are the largest subgroup of vegetarians. As a result, most restaurants, institutional food services, cookbooks, and prepared foods that identify themselves as 'vegetarian' without further qualification are ovo-lactovegetarian. Similarly, travelers who order special 'vegetarian' meals from an airline before departure will be given ovolactovegetarian food unless they are more specific.
The reader should note, however, that some other cultures define 'vegetarian' differently. In Japan, for example, many people think of fish as included in a vegetarian diet. Practitioners of Hinduism, who account for the largest single group of vegetarians worldwide, do not eat eggs, and therefore follow a lactovegetarian diet.
Vegetarianism in general has existed for thousands of years, although the anatomical and archaeological evidence indicates that prehistoric humans were not vegetarians. The pattern of human dentition (teeth adapted for tearing meat as well as grinding plant matter), the length of the human digestive tract, and the secretion of pepsin (an enzyme that is necessary for digesting meat) by the human stomach are all indications that humans evolved as omnivores, or animals that consume both plant and animal matter.
Religious faith is the oldest known motive for consuming a vegetarian diet. Hinduism is the earliest of the world's major religions known to have encouraged a vegetarian lifestyle. As of the early 2000s, Hinduism accounts for more of the world's practicing vegetarians—70 percent—than any other faith or political conviction. The Hindu religion does not, however, endorse ovolactovegetarianism, as observant Hindus may not eat eggs. Christians and Jews who are vegetarians for religious reasons, however, are usually either ovolactovegetarians or vegans.
Ovolactovegetarianism as it is currently practiced by most Westerners is largely a byproduct of the animal rights movement that began in the mid-nineteenth century with the formation of the first societies for the prevention of cruelty to animals. The vegetarian groups of the late nineteenth century began by excluding meat, poultry, and fish from the diet on the grounds that these foods require the slaughter of animals, whereas the use of cow's milk and hen's eggs
does not. These groups, however, were formed before the rise of modern factory farming, which often results in inhumane living conditions for dairy cows and egg-producing hens. As a result, many contemporary ovo-lactovegetarians insist on purchasing their eggs or dairy products from small farmers who do not use factory-farming methods.
The 2003 vegetarian food guide
Ovolactovegetarianism entered the medical mainstream in 2003 when the American Dietetic Association (ADA) and the Dietitians of Canada (DC) jointly issued 'A New Food Guide for North American Vegetarians.' This document contained the first major revisions of the familiar U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) food guide pyramid (originated 1912, modified in 1942 and 1992) and Canada's Food Guide to Healthy Eating (CFGHE; originated 1942, modified in 1992) intended for vegetarians. While the 1992 food guides were the first to consider overnutri-tion as a serious health problem, and emphasized the importance of plant foods in the diet, they did not include guidelines for planning vegetarian diets. The 2003 food guide borrowed the general concept of food groups from the older guides, but reclassified foods into five plant-based groups:
- Grains: The foundation of an ovolactovegetarian diet. Whole grains are best, but enriched refined grains are also acceptable.
- Vegetables and fruits: The ADA and DC recommend that vegetarians choose both vegetables and fruits rather than using only one or the other.
- Legumes, nuts, and other protein-rich foods: Legumes include soy milk and tofu. Dairy products used by ovolactovegetarians also fall into this category, as do meat substitutes.
- Fats: Ovolactovegetarians require plant-based sources of n-3 fats because they do not eat fish.
Some specific vegetarian diets
Ovolactovegetarian diets can accommodate a wide variety of regional and ethnic cuisines as well as different philosophical or religious approaches. The following are some of the possible choices:
MEDITERRANEAN DIETS. Mediterranean diets were not purely ovolactovegetarian in their origins. They are, however, easily adapted to ovolactovegetarian food choices; in fact, several European studies of the beneficial effects of vegetarian diets have been based on ovolactovegetarian modifications of Greek and Spanish Mediterranean diets. These diets are high in their use of whole grains, fruits, nuts, and high-fiber vegetables, and therefore appeal to many people because of their wide choice of flavorful foods.
ORNISH DIET. Developed by a medical doctor to reverse the signs of heart disease, the Ornish diet has also been popularized as a weight-loss program. It is a strict low-fat, high-fiber diet that excludes red meat, poultry, and fish. The Ornish diet can be used by ovolactovegetarians because it allows limited amounts of egg whites, fat-free milk, and other fat-free dairy products.
SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST DIET. Seventh-day Adventists (SDAs) have followed vegetarian dietary regimens since the denomination was first organized in 1863. The diet recommended by the church's General Conference Nutrition Council (GCNC) in the early 2000s is an ovolactovegetarian diet high in whole-grain breads and pastas, fresh vegetables and fruits; moderate use of nuts, seeds, and low-fat dairy products; and limited use of eggs. The church has its own professional organization for dietitians, which is affiliated with the ADA, and encourages all its members to follow the ADA guidelines for vegetarians.
Ovolactovegetarian diets are adopted by people in developed countries primarily for ethical or religious reasons rather than economic necessity. Another more recent reason is the growing perception that plant-based diets are a form of preventive health care for people at increased risk of such diseases as heart disease, type 2 diabetes and some forms of cancer. According to a survey conducted by the editors of Vegetarian Journal in 1997, 82% of the respondents gave health concerns as their primary reason for becoming vegetarians, with animal rights a close second.
The long-term NIH study of Seventh-day Adventists began to report in the 1970s and 1980s that lowered blood pressure, lower rates of cardiovascular disease and stroke, lower blood cholesterol levels, and lowered risks of colon and prostate cancer are associated with a vegetarian diet, especially the ovolactovegetarian regimen recommended by the church. In particular, SDAs were only half as likely to develop type 2 (adult-onset) diabetes as were nonvegetarian Caucasians. Although it is possible to gain weight on an ovolactovegetarian diet, most people lose weight, especially in the first few months; and most vegetarians have lower body mass indices (an important diagnostic criterion of obesity) than their meat-eating counterparts.
Several studies carried out in Germany and Austria reported in 2006 that ovolactovegetarian diets appear to lower the risk of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis, kidney disease, gallstones, diverticulitis, and dementia as well as heart attacks, stroke, and diabetes. In addition, a team of Spanish researchers reported that an ovolactovegetarian version of the traditional Spanish Mediterranean diet was effective in lowering blood cholesterol levels in younger as well as middle-aged subjects.
The ADA strongly recommends that people consult a registered dietitian as well as their primary physician before starting an ovolactovegetarian diet. The reason for this precaution is the variety of dietary regimens that could be called ovolactovegetarian as well as the variations in height, weight, age, genetic inheritance, food preferences, level of activity, geographic location, and preexisting health problems among people. People with high blood cholesterol levels may need to limit their consumption of eggs as much as possible even though this type of vegetarian diet allows the use of eggs. A nutritionist can also help design a diet that a new ovolactovegetarian will enjoy eating as well as getting adequate nourishment and other health benefits.
The longstanding concern about vegetarian diets in general is the risk of nutritional deficiencies, particularly for such important nutrients as protein
minerals (iron, calcium, and zinc), vitamins (vitamin D, riboflavin, vitamin B 12, and vitamin A), iodine, and n-3 fatty acids. The 2003 vegetarian food guide recommends that ovolactovegetarians over 50 years of age should take supplements of vitamin B12 and vitamin D, or use foods fortified with these nutrients. Vitamin D supplements are particularly important for older vegetarians living in northern latitudes or other situations in which they receive little sun exposure.
In addition to nutritional concerns, there is some evidence that ovolactovegetarian diets may actually increase the risk of breast cancer in women, particularly in those with lactose intolerance who use large amounts of soy-based products as milk replacements. Soybeans contain phytoestrogens, or plant estrogens, which have been implicated in breast cancer. The plant estrogens in soy-based products may also explain why vegetarians have a disproportionate number of female babies, and why these girls have a higher rate of precocious puberty than girls born to nonvegetarian mothers.
Some researchers think that an ovolactovegetarian diet may delay physical maturation in girls. A study done in California in the early 1990s reported that girls using the Seventh-day Adventist diet were less tall prior to adolescence than their age-matched nonvegetarian counterparts. Further research in this field is necessary, however.
Ovolactovegetarianism may also be less beneficial than ovovegetarianism to maintaining fertility in women of childbearing age. A group of researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health reported in early 2007 that a high intake of low-fat dairy foods is associated with infertility in women caused by failure to ovulate.
General acceptance
Vegetarianism in general is accepted by all mainstream medical associations and professional nutritionists' societies, and positively recommended by some. The position statement jointly adopted by the ADA and DC in 2003 states: 'It is the position of the American Dietetic Association and Dietitians of Canada that appropriately planned vegetarian diets are healthful, nutritionally adequate and provide health benefits in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases. . . . Well-planned vegan and other types of vegetarian diets are appropriate for all stages of the life cycle, including during pregnancy, lactation, infancy, childhood and adolescence.'
The ADA has a professional subgroup called the Vegetarian Nutrition Dietary Practice Group, or DPG, which publishes a quarterly newsletter called Vegetarian Nutrition Update. The newsletter is available to nonmembers of the ADA for an annual subscription fee of $25. The Vegetarian Nutrition DPG also has its own website at http://www.vegetariannutrition.net/index.htm with articles available to the public on vegetarian diets and cancer prevention, treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, sports nutrition, and pregnancy. Most of these articles assume that readers are ovolactovegetarians.
Once considered an eccentricity, ovolactovegetarianism is widely accepted by the general public in developed countries as a legitimate dietary option in the early 2000s. Most restaurants, school cafeterias, airlines, and other public food services presently offer ovolactovegetarian dishes as a matter of course. The ADA and DC state that about 2.5% of adults (defined as people over 18 years of age) in the United States and 4% of Canadian adults follow some type of vegetarian diet. The Vegetarian Resource Group (VRG), a nonprofit research organization, conducted a poll in 2006. It estimated that 2.3% of adults in the United States— 4.7 million people—are vegetarians, with half to two-thirds of this group being ovolactovegetarians. In addition, the VRG notes that 30 to 40% of American adults choose vegetarian dishes over meat dishes at least some of the time.
Most of the research in nutrition and medicine that has been carried out on vegetarians in the West has been done with research subjects who are ovolactovegetarians, with a smaller number of studies done on vegans. In general, Western researchers use 'vegetarians' simply speaking as a synonym for ovolactovegetarians. Most studies done in India, however, have recruited lactovegetarian subjects, as strict Hindus do not eat eggs. As a result, it is not always easy to compare study findings from different countries unless the subjects were drawn from the same vegetarian subgroup. It is interesting to note that a recent study of French vegetarians used the term 'classical vegetarians' to distinguish ovolactovegetarian subjects from those who were following lactovegetarian or macrobiotic diets.
As has been noted in Europe as well as the United States, the emphasis in medical research on all types of vegetarian diets has shifted in the early 2000s from concern about nutritional deficiencies in people following these diets to the role of vegetarianism in preventing or treating chronic diseases. It was the NIH's studies of Seventh-day Adventists that first indicated that ovolactovegetarian diets lower the risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. The Adventist Health Study received new funding in 2003 for its continuation. As of early 2007, the NIH is conducting five additional clinical trials to evaluate the advantages of ovolactovegetarian diets in managing uremia in the elderly, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and postmenopausal disorders in women as well as treating obesity.
European studies of ovolactovegetarians often focus on regional diets—such as the health benefits of eliminating meat and fish from Mediterranean diets. In addition, as of 2007 there is an ongoing major European study of the associations between dietary intake and cancer risk known as the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). EPIC recruited over 521,000 healthy adults between the ages of 35 and 70 in 10 European countries between 1993 and 1999, with follow-ups scheduled through 2009 and possibly longer. One subcategory in the EPIC study is a cohort of 27,000 vegetarians and vegans in the United Kingdom—the largest single subgroup in the EPIC study. It is expected that the very high levels of phytoestrogens (5 to 50 times higher than in those in nonvegetarian European subjects) in the blood plasma of the British vegetarians will provide further information about the long-term effects of ovolactovegetarian as well as vegan diets.
