When I first saw a link to Food Politics' blog about chocolate toddler formula I thought it was a joke. Yes, I'd heard that formula companies make formula for toddlers as well as infants, but chocolate-flavored?? Seriously?! Yes, seriously. Mead-Johnson's new Enfagrow Premium Chocolate Toddler Formula with "natural and artificial flavors" is on the market for toddlers age 12 to 36 months. Apparently it's not enough that we load our elementary school-aged kids full of sugar in the form of chocolate milk. What we really need to do is get them hooked on sugar while they're young – really young – like 12 months old. I wonder what Jamie Oliver would have to say about this?
Enfamil describes the NEW Enfagrow™ PREMIUM™ Chocolate as follows:
A delicious new flavor for toddlers 12 months and older – with prebiotics for digestive health!
As your child grows from an infant to a toddler, he's probably becoming pickier about what he eats. Now more than ever, ensuring that he gets complete nutrition can be a challenge.
That's why we created new Enfagrow PREMIUM Chocolate with Triple Health Guard™. With more nutrition than milk, Omega-3 DHA, prebiotics, and a great tasting chocolate flavor he'll love, you can help be sure he's getting the nutrition he still needs even after he outgrows infant formula.
The chocolate formula sells for $19.99 (for 18 servings) at Safeway in Colorado, but is currently on sale for $16.99. (What a steal!) Yes, I went into the store to check it out for myself (and snap some pictures of the nutrition information). I was tempted to buy a can for the sake of research, but I just couldn't justify giving Enfamil my money, not even in the name of investigative journalism. For the record, they also make a vanilla flavored formula in case your toddler isn't into chocolate.
Marion Nestle lists the main ingredients in her post Chocolate toddler formula?
Here's the list of ingredients for everything present at a level of 2% or more:
- Whole milk
- Nonfat milk
- Sugar
- Cocoa
- Galactooligosaccharides (prebiotic fiber)
- High oleic sunflower oil
- Maltodextrin
Nestle also states that, "Mead-Johnson representatives explained that Enfagrow is not meant as an infant formula. It is meant as a dietary supplement for toddlers aged 12 to 36 months." Yet, as she points out, it's called "FORMULA" and it has a Nutrition Facts label, not a Supplement Facts label. Hmmm.
Green Mom in the Burbs had this to say: "Gross. I mean, this is just…gross. No, not the KFC Double Down, though that's pretty disgusting too… I'm talking about this: Chocolate formula for toddlers. Gross. And I thought trying to get chocolate and strawberry flavored milk out of school cafeterias was important. This is just…wow. I'm not sure even Jamie Oliver can save us."
Cate Nelson from Eco Childs Play calls Enfagrow Chocolate Toddler Formula the "Gag Me Product of the Week" and said, "There are serious problems with this product. First off, why do toddlers, even those who are no longer breastfed, need an infant formula? Is "baby" not getting proper nutrition? And if so, how in the world is a chocolate-flavored formula going to solve this problem?"
Kiera Butler who writes at Mother Jones explains a bit about toddler formula. "So what is toddler formula, anyway? Nutritionally, the unflavored version is pretty similar to whole milk, except with more calcium and phosphorous. There seems to be a consensus that after age one, kids don't really need formula at all, as long as they have a healthy solid-foods diet and are getting plenty of calcium."
Danielle, who blogs at Momotics said she was shocked by some of the comments she read on CafeMom about the chocolate toddler formula. One comment read, "What's the big deal? Kids extended breastfeed." Danielle responded, "AHHH! There is NO comparison between a chocolate formula for toddlers and a mothers breast milk. They aren't even on the same page, or in the same book!"
She also wants to know "why are we going to encourage our children into unhealthy eating habits by providing them with a tasty chocolatey treat? In a country with obesity rates in our children growing, it seems like simple and unknowing choices like this as children could lead our kids into serious risky eating habits as adults."
Danielle adds, "I think the biggest realization this all brought me to today is that Jamie Oliver is right, there is such a huge issue with food, eating, nutrition, and our parents today that we need to seriously take a look at in our country. There is a problem, and the comments that the parents on CafeMom brought to the table did nothing but prove that parents are grossly un- and undereducated on what we should and should not be giving our children."
Annie from PhD in Parenting points out that because of breastfeeding, her babies got all sorts of great flavors through her breastmilk without having to actually eat artificial flavoring.
JennyLou is concerned about the potential health problems as well. "Our obesity rates continue to climb. More kids are now obese than ever before. Kids don't know what vegetables are. Kids won't eat vegetables. Kids are drinking juice, soda, etc. out of baby bottles and then sippy cups. And now, enter chocolate formula. What a recipe for disaster."
Christina who blogs at A Mommy Story wonders about the possible caffeine levels in the cocoa used in the formula.
All in all, I have to say this product scares the heck out of me. I understand that some children need extra calories and may even live on a entirely liquid diet and there could potentially be a need for this (though I'm guessing there are healthier alternatives), but having a product like this available to the masses seems like a bad, bad idea. Our kids already have the deck stacked against them when it comes to nutrition in this country, why make it any worse?
Nestle ended her post saying, "Next: let's genetically modify moms to produce chocolate breast milk!" And Abbie, who blogs at Farmer's Daughter responded, "I'm snacking on some chocolate right now and nursing my son. Funny coincidence. That's as close as he's going to get to chocolate milk for a long time." Rightfully so.

Angiodysplasia of the colon occurs when blood vessels in the colon (large intestine) enlarge. They may become fragile and result in occasional bleeding in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
Angiodysplasia of the colon is caused by dilated connections between veins and capillaries or arteries in the colon.
Risk Factors
Factors that may increase your chance of angiodysplasia of the colon include:
- Increased age
- Heart problems
- History of blood vessel problems or GI tract bleeding
- Kidney problems
- A blood disorder called von Willebrand disease
Symptoms of angiodysplasia of the colon may include:
- Dark, tarry stools
- Bleeding from the rectum
- Anemia
- Weakness
- Fatigue
- Shortness of breath
You will be asked about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Your blood and stool may be tested.
Imaging tests help evaluate internal structures. Some may use contrast material to make them easier to see. Imaging tests may include:
- Colonoscopy
- Upper GI endoscopy
- Capsule endoscopy
- Abdominal CT scan
- Angiography
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Treatment may not be necessary, since nearly all of cases of angiodysplasia of the colon stop bleeding on their own. Treatment options include the following:
Your doctor can often treat tissues with heat to seal bleeding blood vessels during a colonoscopy. Rebleeding is common.
The blood supply to the bleeding area can be clotted through angiography.
Medical Therapy
Medications called somatostatin analogs may be used to prevent bleeding in some people.
Surgery to remove the affected area of the colon may sometimes be necessary.

Therrin wrote:While at a wind turbine technician trade show I stopped by Petzl's booth and saw their new RIG descender. I'd been looking at the I'D for a while, but due to the price I never picked one up either. The RIG I was pretty instantly impressed with. Relatively light, included features I was wanted, not amazingly affordable, but getting to actually see/feel/test one made me want to try it out. So I bought one on sale for $120 USD.
I *really* like it. I've used it on about a dozen 150 to 200ft descents, a 300ft descent, and dozens of shorter ones.
Not really sure how much you cavers would like it, or if it would fit with your needs.
Tim White wrote:The Rig is NOT designed to replace the STOP for cavers, but for "difficult-access professions" i.e. industrial rope access technicians.
The big difference between the Rig and the I'd is that Petzl has removed what they refer to as the "anti- error catch". This catch along with the anti-error design of the cam on the I'd is an idiot-proof design. If you rig the I'd backwards the anti- error catch lock into the rope and keeps you from falling.
Problem with this catch/cam combo is it is difficult to take up slack when doing a changeover and difficult to use the I'd in the ascending mode (R.A.D.) Petzl listened to rope access professional and produced a device in the Rig that meets their needs.
Neither the I'd nor the Rig are good in a cave environment! I suspect that exposure to dirt, dust, etc. might not allow the eternal workings of these devices to work as designed. For an example...at the 2009 International Technical Rescue Symposium (ITRS) we were shown an I'd that had failed due to a very small of paint that got between the cam that housing.
I would caution anyone using these two devices in a cave setting. Although the I'd has gone through the strenuous testing to be NFPA and CE EN certified, IMHO it is not cave proof. Unlike most cavers, the users of the Rig and I'd are required to have an equipment inspection and replace plan.
My suggestion, as a caver, stick with the devices that were designed by cavers for cavers.
FYI I have a Rig that I use for rope access and have used the I'd a lot in rope access and technical rescue settings (BUT not in a cave!)
Unlike most cavers, the users of the Rig and I'd are required to have an equipment inspection and replace plan.
Neither the I'd nor the Rig are good in a cave environment! I suspect that exposure to dirt, dust, etc. might not allow the eternal workings of these devices to work as designed.

Great idea for the corporate world and its lawyers. I prefer to look at my gear myself.

Soul Warming, I think of thick hearty bowls of love!!! When I saw this #SundaySupper event I knew I wanted to be a part of it. I love one bowl meals like this. Everything cooked in one pot with so little clean up, like this Seafood Chowder. I picked a seafood chowder not having a recipe nor even knowing exactly what a wanted to make. This recipe grew on me. I new I wanted clams in it but ones in the shell or from the can. I opted for easier than more expensive and messier.
Okay I had the clams but what else, or it would just be clam chowder. Then I came up with the idea of salmon and thought it would pair lovely with corn and dill. Lastly I put in the shrimp and upped it adding more veggies like carrots, celery and little red potatoes. The end result is fabulous. This will warm you soul from your head to your toes. I kept it a bit lighter just using half and half and only 1 cup. A lovely meal in a bowl that I hope you really enjoy.
I am entering this delicious soup into Shine Supper Club. Come and check out the other entries.
- 2 Tbsp. olive oil
- 2 Tbsp. butter
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 cup baby carrots, sliced
- 2 celery stocks, diced
- ¼ cup flour
- 900 ml chicken stock or fish stock
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup frozen corn
- 12 small red potatoes, large diced
- 1½ lb. salmon in 1" cubes
- 340 gm shrimp, 30-41 count, defrosted
- 142 gm. can baby clams, drained
- 1 cup half and half
- 1 Tbsp. dill, plus more for garnish
- Heat the oil and melt the butter in a large pot. Add the carrots, onion and celery and cook until the onion is translucent and the veggies are soft. Add the flour and cook for 1 min. Slowly add the chicken stock stirring well. Let the mixture come up to a boil and thicken. Season with salt and pepper. Add the corn and the potatoes and boil for 15 min. until just tender.
- Add the shrimp and salmon and cook for 4 to 5 min. until just cooked through. Add the cream, clams and dill and heat through but do not boil. Adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve garnished with dill.

|Oracle® Fusion Middleware Integration Overview for Oracle Identity Management Suite
11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
Part Number E15477-03
|PDF · Mobi · ePub
This chapter introduces basic Oracle Fusion Middleware integration concepts. It contains these topics:
Oracle Identity Management provides customers with a path to meet compliance efficiently, secure critical applications and sensitive data, and lower operational costs. Using the most complete and best-in-class suite of IdM solutions, enterprises can manage the end-to-end lifecycle of user identities across all enterprise resources both within and beyond the firewall.
Through its foundation for service-oriented security, Oracle Identity Management 11g delivers enhanced security by automating provisioning of user accounts, dramatically reducing help desk calls, streamlining compliance audit and reporting, consolidating identity silos, enabling rapid integration with enterprise applications, and more.
Successful integration with identity management technologies is key to the secure operation of today's enterprise applications. This document will enable you to assess the tools and techniques that Oracle IdM provides to enable you to run secure enterprise operations.
Components of Oracle Identity Management typically integrate with the existing infrastructure and applications in the enterprise. Some examples:
A directory service may provide a centralized user store for existing applications that are LDAP-enabled.
An access management solution may provide single sign-on and web authorization for existing Web applications in concert with the application servers deployed in the enterprise.
A provisioning solution may streamline the onboarding procedure by orchestrating the various entities and accounts that need to be created across multiple systems when a new employee is hired.
A role management solution may provide the necessary scoping to enforce audit rules.
Designed to help you respond and adapt to the needs of your enterprise, Oracle Identity Management presents a highly heterogeneous solution that gives you many different options to enhance security in your existing environment. Understanding the business requirements and implementing the right level of integration is the key to a successful identity management deployment.
Based on functional areas, this document provides a high-level guide to the types of integration available in each Oracle Identity Management product.
Its objective is to enable you to easily identify the capabilities and integrations available for your current enterprise deployment and to plan its future road map.
This section explains the different types of possible IdM integrations:
Many Oracle Identity Management components can integrate and interoperate with each other. For example, Oracle Access Manager can provide single sign-on for products such as Oracle Identity Manager and Oracle Identity Analytics.
This book covers the range of Oracle Identity Management component integrations.
Oracle products cover a large spectrum of the technology stack, with products in all of these areas:
operating systems
virtual machines
Oracle Identity Management is well equipped to handle many of the security requirements in each of these areas. Depending on your requirements, Oracle Identity Management can integrate with many products from the rest of the Oracle technology stack to provide additional security and identity management-related features to these products.
For example, Oracle Identity Manager provides user account management and provisioning support for Oracle E-Business Suite and Oracle PeopleSoft. This book will also cover those integration scenarios.
For customers with non-Oracle products in their enterprise deployment, Oracle Identity Management can also integrate with many third-party products to strengthen and satisfy your business requirements.
For example, many of our LDAP-enabled products can be readily integrated with Microsoft Active Directory. You can use Oracle Access Manager, for example, to support Windows Native Authentication for web applications by integrating with a Microsoft Windows domain.
Where relevant, this book covers security integration scenarios between Oracle Identity Management and third-party products.
Table 1-1 lists some key areas of integration in the identity management suite, and the components/products involved in each area.
Table 1-1 Key Integration Scenarios
Centralized access management, single sign-on, fine-grained authentication and entitlement control.
Oracle Access Manager

Use this book to understand the major integration options available to meet your site's requirements. Use the references provided with each topic to learn more about each option, including specific prerequisites, installation, and post-install configuration.
The book contains a comprehensive cross-product index that you can use to quickly locate a topic of interest. Each integration topic is indexed twice, once for each component/product in the integration. For example, the Oracle Identity Manager connector for Microsoft Exchange is indexed under both Microsoft Exchange and Oracle Identity Manager. This allows you to see what types of integration are available for any particular Oracle Identity Management component. It also allows you to see all the relevant integration options Oracle Identity Management supports for a particular Oracle product or third-party product from the reverse angle, that is, from the latter perspective.

I have a rest service that is essentially a proxy to a variety of other services. So if I call
GET /users/{id}
It will get their user profile, as well as order history, and contact info, etc... all from various services, and aggregates them into one nice object. My problem is that each call to a different service has the potential to add time to the original request, so we would rather not get ALL the data ALL of the time if a particular client does not care about all of the pieces.
A solution I have arrived at is to do something like this:
GET /users/{id}?includeOrders=true&includeX=true&includeY=true...
That works, and it allow me to do only what I need to, but it is cumbersome. We have added enough different data sources that there are too many parameters for that style to be useful. I could do something similar with a single integer and a bitmask or something, but that only makes it harder to read, and it does not feel very Restful.
I could break it down into multiple calls so they would need to call
/users/{id}/orders and
/users/{id}/profile separately, but that sort of defeats the purpose of an aggregating proxy, who's purpose is to make clients jobs easier.
Are there any good patterns that can help me return just enough data for each client, without making it too difficult for them to filter and select what they want?

2013 Nissan Frontier PRO-4X Crew Cab
With modern pickup trucks, the label "full-size" seems increasingly like a polite way of saying "obese," or at least "gargantuan." There are undoubtedly many pickup buyers who need all that width, length, and height, but for those who don't, the 2013 Nissan Frontier serves as a reminder that a pickup truck can come in a size other than XXL. Despite its less-prodigious footprint and less-towering height, the 2013 Nissan Frontier packs a lot of utility into a moderately sized package.
The 2013 Nissan Frontier isn't exactly news; the current iteration has been around since 2005. However, as competitors such as the Ford Ranger, Dodge Dakota, Chevrolet Colorado, and GMC Canyon have fallen away, it assumes greater stature. The Toyota Tacoma is its only direct competitor but is slightly larger. The Honda Ridgeline is another sub-full-size entry, but its unconventional layout (more carlike, unibody construction with a transverse engine and front/all-wheel drive) makes it more of an alternative take on the genre.
The 2013 Nissan Frontier is available as a Crew Cab, with a four regular doors, or a King Cab, with rear-hinged half-doors. As you might expect, the King Cab rear seats are more like jump seats (for two); the Crew Cab rear bench (for three) has a reasonable amount of space, although it, too, suffers from a fairly upright backrest. Even if no one sits back there, however, the Crew Cab's rear compartment goes out of its way to be useful, as the rear seatback can fold flat and the rear seat cushion can fold up against the seatback. Under the seat there's an open cubby with a mesh top, good for stashing small items -- a first-aid kit, in the case of the truck I drove. I practically felt obligated to go out and injure myself rock climbing or mountain biking to be worthy of this thing.
My particular test truck was a 2013 Nissan Frontier 4x4 tricked out in PRO-4X regalia, which (probably not by accident) sounds like some kind of hardcore workout regiment and includes a bunch of mostly useful equipment. The PRO-4X brings with it Bilstein off-road dampers, skid plates, hill descent control/hill start assist, and a locking rear differential. For the same rugged look, but with 2WD, Nissan offers the Desert Runner, which shaves more than $5000 off the price.
My particular PRO-4X was further outfitted with the PRO-4X luxury package ($2850), which seems a bit like a contradiction in terms. It adds such niceties as a rudimentary navigation system, power seats, leather, seat heaters, power mirrors, a power sunroof, Bluetooth streaming audio and additional connectivity features, and additional utility in the form of a roof rack with cross bars.
Further enhancing this Frontier's utility was the bed extender/trailer hitch package ($560), which includes the exact two items you'd think it would. The former is particularly useful (and available on its own for $280), as it can slide fore and aft in the bed to corral your cargo; it can also fence in cargo when the tailgate is dropped, effectively turning the five-foot bed into a six-foot bed. (A long-bed version of the Frontier, with a six-foot bed, is also available as both a two-door and a four-door.) When you don't want to use the bed extender, it lifts right out (while convenient, this might make it subject to theft).
Two-door Frontiers can be had with a four-cylinder engine, but four-doors come only with Nissan's stout 3.5-liter V-6. Either can be paired with a six-speed manual or a five-speed automatic transmission. The V-6's 261 hp and 281 lb-ft of torque earn it a maximum tow rating of 6500 pounds -- enough to pull a runabout boat, a popup camper, or many utility trailers, if not quite enough to pull a house off its foundation or the Space Shuttle down the street.
Is there room for realistic utility in the increasingly hyperbolic world of pickup trucks? If there is, the Frontier stands ready to serve, a vehicular Swiss Army knife in a field that seems to prefer a bazooka.

As I was getting the kids ready for an afternoon of carefree fun at the pool today, my almost 6-year-old surprised me with this question, "Mom, why do girls have to wear bathing suit tops or shirts, but boys don't?"
I wanted to shout, "Patriarchy!" as I like to blame most things on the patriarchy and I know it would have made Denise proud, but somehow I was pretty sure that response wouldn't suffice.
It occurs to me now that this may be the first time she's really had to deal with inequality in the world (or the Puritanical society in which we live). Yes, I know it's only a shirt (or a bathing suit top), but this may be the first time she's realized that different rules exist for different people. That's a pretty big deal.
Back to my story. I can't recall exactly how I replied (I wasn't prepared. I didn't study! I didn't know there was going to be a test!), but it was something to the effect of blaming "the man" for making "rules" like that. She didn't think it was fair. I can't blame her. It's not.
Later that evening I mentioned her question to Twitter and asked how they would respond. I received an interesting mix of replies.
I think my favorite came from Denise (Eat Play Love) who said, "Tell her breasts make people really really nervous! ;)" I have to agree. That pretty much sums it all up right there!
Emily (Mama Days said, "best answer: men have it easier in basically everything in life ;)" While I tend to agree with this statement, it wasn't the message I'm quite ready to give to Ava.
Cassie (Cassie Boorn) said, "I totally had a fit about that when I was young. It was my first sign of feminism ;)" I get the feeling many little girls find the notion off-putting.
While Amy (Entertainment Realm) said, "I went shirtless when I didn't have any boobs i.e. at that age. no biggie." Interesting. I can recall my little sister toddling around without a shirt when she was 2 or 3, but probably not as old as 6.
InnerWizdom said that personally she wouldn't enforce that "rule" because she finds it "bogus." She added that her kids do go topless at the public pool or beach, but not in stores because nobody is supposed to go shirtless there. She also said that she doesn't know how anyone can explain to a 6-year-old "that adults see their chest as sexual, as something to hide away, even though it looks the same as a boys." Yeah, I really didn't want to get into sexuality with her at that point. Also I admire her for not "forcing" her kids to do something just because that's what society says they should do. I don't know that I could do that.
So what do you think? What would your response be if your 6-year-old daughter asked you the same question? Would you blame anatomy? Blame the patriarchy? Blame the Puritans? Blame the American prudery (as my friend's husband suggested)? Or is the answer: "that's just how it is?"

A critical component to victory in Japan, the 38th Bomb Group was an integral part of of the Fifth Air Force through major campaigns and conquests in New Guinea, through the Philippines and to victory in Japan.
We're proud of our heritage and of the contribution that we were able to make to our country's defense of freedom. We hope that you enjoy your trip through the history of the 38th Bomb Group assembled here.
