Major James Joshua Bowman, Lieutenant Neal Turkington and Corporal Arjun Purja Pun killed in Afghanistan
Major James Joshua Bowman (left), Lieutenant Neal Turkington and Corporal Arjun Purja
The three soldiers, serving as part of Combined Force Nahr-e Saraj (South), were killed in a suspected premeditated attack by a member of the Afghan National Army.
Major Bowman's family said:
"He was the best possible son and brother who will be sadly missed by his family and many friends.
"He loved the Army and was very proud of the selfless work that he and his Company were doing."
Lt Turkington's family said:
"Our family is devastated with the news of Neal's death in Afghanistan on 13th July 2010.
"One of Neal's proudest moments was hearing that he had been commissioned to join the Royal Gurkha Rifle's Regiment.
"He felt honoured and privileged to serve with such distinguished, courageous and loyal men.
"Neal was jovial, kind, considerate and loyal to his family and friends. Our family were inspired by his presence, and generosity.
"He was relentless and steadfast in his pursuit of those causes he believed in with his passion for making a difference whatever the circumstance.
"We are all so proud of him – we couldn't have asked for a finer son, brother and friend."
Corporal Pun's wife, Durga, said:
"Arjun Puja Pun was a tremendous husband. He was proud to be a soldier and died doing a job he loved.
"We are devastated by the loss of Arjun who was a loving husband and father. We are proud of the fact that Arjun was prepared to do his duty helping the people of Afghanistan."

4 Who are you to judge someone else's servants? They stand or fall before their own Lord (and they will stand, because the Lord has the power to make them stand). 5 One person considers some days to be more sacred than others, while another person considers all days to be the same. Each person must have their own convictions. 6 Someone who thinks that a day is sacred, thinks that way for the Lord. Those who eat, eat for the Lord, because they thank God. And those who don't eat, don't eat for the Lord, and they thank the Lord too. 7 We don't live for ourselves and we don't die for ourselves.
13 So stop judging each other. Instead, this is what you should decide: never put a stumbling block or obstacle in the way of your brother or sister. 14 I know and I'm convinced in the Lord Jesus that nothing is wrong to eat in itself. But if someone thinks something is wrong to eat, it becomes wrong for that person. 15 If your brother or sister is upset by your food, you are no longer walking in love. Don't let your food destroy someone for whom Christ died. 16 And don't let something you consider to be good be criticized as wrong. 17 God's kingdom isn't about eating food and drinking but about righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Now it gets hard. In Jumanji, Dr. Bravestone said, "We need each other, whether we like it or not." Jewish and Gentile Christians in Rome saw many issues differently (e.g. observing holy days, eating "unclean" meat). Each side felt like shunning those who disagreed. Scholar Leslie Allen summed up Paul's message to both sides: "It is nothing less than usurping Christ's sovereign authority over a fellow-Christian to criticize him over a difference of opinion: for the less scrupulous to look down on the more scrupulous, or for the more scrupulous to judge the less scrupulous. Christian fellowship does not imply a right to run other people's lives for them: only Christ can—and will—discharge such a right." *
Compassionate God, help me to major in majors and minor in minors—and leave the judging to you. Fill me with your "righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit." Amen.
* Leslie C. Allen comments on Romans 14:1-12 in New International Bible Commentary, F. F. Bruce, gen. ed. Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan, 1979, p. 1342.
Love each other. Might sound easy, at first. But it turns out this is really hard, and we Christians are prone to disregard it in our eagerness to be right or to be good.
Maybe we need more specific instructions: Love each other more than you love your beliefs. Love each other more than you love being good. Love each other more than you love being right.
Wise people remind us, again and again in different ways:
Love each other. Turns out this is really hard. What's your phrase or sentence that keeps the door of Love open for others?
Can't find something? Let us help.

At 3.58 AM 570 miles West of Ireland, U-705 attacks convoy SC 95, sinking American SS Balladier (13 killed, 32 survivors in 1 lifeboat, 2 rafts and a float rescued by another convoy SC 95 vessel, American SS Norluna).
Case Blue. At 4.30 AM, German 6th Army launches an offensive against the remnants of Soviet 4th Tank Army who are surrounded on the West bank of the Don Bend. Further South in the foothills of the Caucasus Mountains, 1st Panzer Army attacks the oil town of Grozny which is defended by Soviet 9th and 37th Armies. Stalin has decided to defend the oil supply and to stop the Germans at the Caucasus Mountains.
Finnish patrol boat VMV 5 sinks Soviet submarine M-97 with depth charges in the Gulf of Finland, 3 miles off the coast of Estonia near Tallinn.
At 7 AM, tanker SS Ohio arrives at Malta, carrying crucial fuel for the island (Captain Dudley Mason is awarded the George Cross). SS Ohio is kept afloat by British destroyers HMS Penn and HMS Ledbury, and this cluster of ships is protected from further air attacks by Spitfires while coastal batteries chase off U-boats and torpedo boats. SS Ohio finally sinks in Valetta Harbour after her cargo of kerosene and fuel oil is quickly pumped out. Operation Pedestal has cost aircraft carrier HMS Eagle, cruisers HMS Manchester and HMS Cairo, destroyer HMS Foresight and 9 freighters. However, the fuel and 32,000 tons of supplies save Malta from being starved out of the war and subsequent RAF and Royal Navy actions prevent supply ships reaching Rommel in Libya.
140 miles West of Crete, British submarine HMS Porpoise sinks Italian MV Lerici.
On Guadalcanal, 10,819 US Marines have little equipment and enough food for 17 days at 2 meals per day. However, help is at hand. The unfinished Japanese airfield at Lunga Point is completed with capture Japanese equipment, declared open and renamed Henderson Field after Marine Major Lofton Henderson (killed in the Battle of Midway). US transport ships Colhoun, Gregory, Little and McKean arrive with supplies.
Overnight in bad weather, 131 RAF aircraft inaccurately bomb Düsseldorf, Germany. A 4000lb bomb causes much damage in the nearby town of Neuss (1 killed; 13 injured). 2 Lancasters, 1 Hampden & 1 Wellington are lost.

The Kaingaroa State Forest was first planted in the late 1920's and grew to be the largest Forest in the North Island, and the largest plantation in the southern hemisphere.
In the late 1980's the NZ Government decided to sell the State Forests and to disband the NZ Forest Service.
KLC Limited was started in 1997 and is based at Kaingaroa Village, 50 kilometres south east of Rotorua, on what was the site of the NZ Forest Service Workshops.
KLC started as a kiln drying operation and quickly progressed into being one of New Zealand's largest and most innovative timber treatment and re-manufacturing operations producing high quality weatherboards, fascia and dressed boards.
KLC's loyal staff are key to the success of the operation. The combined knowledge and experience of KLC's staff, ensure that KLC produces timber products that are of a high quality and are fit for purpose.
KLC has a significant presence in the NZ market for products ranging from Finger Jointed and Blanks to our Generation II® range of Dressed Boards, Fascia and Weatherboards.
KLC also exports to Australia, Asia, the US and Europe.
To bring honesty ("call it as we see it"), integrity and stability to the NZ pine industry to the extent that staff, customers and suppliers' businesses and lives are enhanced working for and with KLC.
To manufacture superior premium products that add value to NZ Pine that: MERCHANTS want to stock, BUILDERS/SPECIFIERS ask for by brand, HOME-OWNERS recommend to family and friends, ARCHITECTS prefer for their clients, EMPLOYEES are proud of, and SHAREHOLDERS seek for short term profitability and long term value.
Work for, with and beside each other. Respect ourselves, each other and the company.
He tangata, he tangata, he tangata (it is people, it is people, it is people)
The timber used is 100% New Zealand Radiata Pine sourced from renewable, plantation forestry.

Healing Children
Our son, the Warrior, injured himself when he was seventeen months old. He reached up to a kitchen counter and pulled a cup of hot tea onto himself, causing second-degree burns. It caused a great deal of trauma. The burn itself, the ride in the ambulance to the hospital, the hospital treatment, and the constant changing of bandages when he got home. Since he was a young child, he had to endure the stress of the Child "Protection" Service interrogations with all of us as well, even though they found no abuse occurred. It was a significant event that changed him on many levels.
Prior to the accident, he was a happy, curious boy. Very energetic and very headstrong, as it typical for that age. Afterward, though, he was much quieter, more reserved and had a chronic anger that came out in bullying his siblings and taking pleasure in causing others pain.
Having such a hurting boy caused a lot of stress in our family. We didn't realize for a while that a lot of his personality changed after the accident. It was a slow transition during a time in childhood that is naturally full of change. We thought it was his natural personality coming out more during the tumultuous-twos. But we later realized it was more than that.
We were recently suggested to perform a healing ritual for him. His skin was completely healed with no scars, but the deeper parts of his body were still hurt. His emotional body was still hurt. And his spirit was still hurt.
Last night, we did that healing ritual. Since he is young, three and a half years old, we kept it short and simple, though powerful. Since the accident affected all members of our family, we all participated in the healing ritual.
To start, we calmly asked him to remember the accident and how it felt. He was the "tough-guy" during this part of the ritual, as he normally is when he feels uncomfortable. After we were sure he was remembering it, the remaining four of us each took a feather and swept the area of his body where he was injured. During the sweeping, he kept his tough-guy armor up while he played with a new doll he received earlier.
We put the negative, painful energy collected in the feathers into a heart-shaped box that was filled with different feathers, which he held near his heart. Each sweep of the feather collected more pain and discord from the accident and put it in the box. We talked out loud about the pain being lifted as it happened.
About five minutes later, the Warrior whispered, "That is enough." Since it was so soft, we asked to confirm that he wanted us to stop now. He simply repeated, "I have had enough." We stopped.
For a minute, we all just sat and relaxed, talking about how much we love him. Then his "tough-guy" armor cracked and he ran to his room crying and screaming. He had so much pain and hurt feelings bottled up from the injury that he never could get out. They all came out at once now.
We sat with him and he screamed for many minutes, crying out all that stress and pent-up emotion. It was a catharsis that he wasn't able to have earlier. For an hour we held him, rubbed him and told him that we loved him.
This morning, he woke with a fever as his body worked to flush out all the negativity. It appeared as a normal illness such as he has occasionally. We expect him to recover from his healing crisis over the next few days as a new boy. We have faith that the cheerful, curious boy we knew before the accident will return, made wiser by the experience.
It is like Persphone's return. She has experienced great trauma, been through the underworld, and returned back to the world of the living. She is happy and joyful, but she is wiser and deeper than the blind innocence the maiden Kore had.
Looking back, we wish that the accident never occurred, but we've learned that everyone has to go through their traumatic tests. These tests and the suffering that accompanies them are what propels us forward on our path, leading to new understanding and wisdom. It is the suffering that allows us to learn.
As Demeter could not prevent Kore's traumatic descent to the underworld, we cannot always protect our children from pain and suffering. What we can do, though, is help them to recover and heal from the trauma on all levels. Unfortunately, the medical system does not acknowledge this, so we, as Pagan parents, need to remember to do this on our own. And trust that we can heal our children because of the intimate connection parents have to them.

I'm sorry your son had to suffer this injury. I applaud that as parents you saw his need to find further healing even if the physical scars are gone. I hope your ritual will help him to move on in this area of his life. *hugs*

Thank you so much for sharing this. You touched upon a really important point about Pagan parents helping to heal their children where modern medicine lacks. We do that as well. We also hope to teach Sophia to maintain the balance within and harmony without that will help her maintain a healthy body, mind and soul.

That is definitely important, especially in this frantic society that promotes everything except balance and harmony. Thanks for the comment.

Wow — what at amazing time for your family. May the healing continue for your little Warrior and for all of you. You are to be commended for caring so much and for taking the time to truly help your son through this. I think so many of us would be tempted to rely on doctors and others to "fix it," but really, the responsibility lies primarily within the hearth.
Morninghawk Says:
April 5th, 2008 at 12:41 am
I agree. We have always seen western medicine and doctors as having a specific place in our lives. That place mainly is when there is an acute medical problem, such as he had when he burned himself. But their expertise is limited to those specific acute conditions. Beyond that, we believe in Traditional Chinese Medicine and, more importantly, ritual and prayer. Those are what heal all bodies, not just the physical one.
Thanks for the comment.

Despite your caring, the healing ritual must have been very difficult carry out. Whew, I would have found that tough. How wonderful that he is doing better and now is free to heal more within. Blessings to you and all your family. 🙂
Morninghawk Says:
April 6th, 2008 at 11:32 am
It was difficult, but it was something he has needed for a while. It was hard seeing his underlying bitterness and anger that was beyond what a normal three-year-old would have.
He is much happier now on a deeper level, which made it all worth it. He still has his usual tantrums, as is normal for his age, but he doesn't carry that anger and bitterness around with him. He is also starting to use the arm he injured more. Thanks.

Ingredients at Five Star Sensation a measure of food trends
|Five Star Sensation, which raises money for the UH Seidman Cancer Center, is said to be one of the largest food events in the country. (Michael Blair photo)
It's unlikely that any of the 2,300 people attending Five Star Sensation tasted everything served by the 35 chefs who joined Wolfgang Puck in presenting the 15th such culinary extravaganza. Most were certainly foodies and everyone paid at least $300 for an event ticket, but these are not the all-you-can-eat buffet types who measure food value by quantity.
Chefs assembled around the edges of a trio of dramatically peaked tents with their cooking stations and refrigeration arrayed on the outside perimeter. Tables for dining, a bandstand with dance floor, and a pair of elevated lounging areas filled the tents' interiors.
Although some food stations were simple, others were more elaborate with centerpieces and foodie decor adding to the allure. Most chefs and their helpers had about three different dishes to serve, catering to all tastes.
According to Barb Snow, who helped to organize the food side of the operation, each chef made 1,000 servings of everything he or she prepared and each dish required about 100 pounds of ingredients.
That means there were at least 100 very different things to eat that night, along with wines from several dozen vintners. They were mostly California but with a scattering of French, Italian and Spanish wines. Each wine station poured four to six wines, from one-ounce taste size to full glasses.
To say there was plenty to eat and drink is a vast understatement.
Judging from the Chef Menu Card distributed to those who wanted to eat with a plan, popular ingredients and dishes this year included various preparations using pork belly and short ribs, arugula, cilantro and lemon aioli.
On the pork belly front, there was wild boar pork belly Bahn Mi from Cleveland Browns chef Mikell Blocker, pork belly tacos from Chef Michael Lamarco of Hyde Park Restaurant Group, pork belly with hot pepper curry from Wolfgang Puck, and Berkshire pork belly from Lydia Shire of Scampo in Boston,
A Spanish influence seemed to permeate several food booths using Manchego cheese and tapas style preparations, ideal for serving as finger foods in a scenario when knives and forks can be awkward. Chef Joseph Miller of Joe's Restaurant in Venice, Calif. even brought an aged ham from pigs fed on acorns, a rarity in this country although common at restaurants in Spain. He had it mounted on a special device made to stabilize it for the very thin slicing needed to serve it.
Bacon, which has been so popular as an ingredient in recent years seemed to be less so at this event. Chef Brad Lettau from the Hitching Post served sliders of local beef with bacon, bacon jam and fries. That's the restaurant many might recall from the movie "Sideways" which was credited with putting Pinot Noir wines of the map. Even though that 2004 film was out almost a decade ago, people still include the Hitching Post on their Sideways tours of the Santa Barbara area of California, he told us.

text: This morning I turned on Google Maps. I have it set so there's an arrow pointing in the direction of where the phone is pointing. It only showed East no matter which direction. I figured that was because I have a network extender and it may cause problems. I then went a mile away and it had the same problem. Sure it was the right location, but the wrong direction. I have GPS Status as an app so I tried it. It showed the satellites, but North was now East on the compass! I took it to the Verizon store and added the app to the Droids they had for display. They were more correct, but mine was the worse. I showed it to the tech and they couldn't get it working right. In the end they did a hard reboot which cleared it up. I was wondering if anyone else had that problem and how they solved it.

This is my story of how I got lost in the jungle, and survived. Just.
Going Off The Grid
I had a full day between my speaking engagement and the FullCodePress event kicking off, and I intended to make the most of it. It was my first time visiting New Zealand – rather than spend it in museums or tourist attractions, I was determined to get out of the city.
You see, before I actually set foot in the place, the words "New Zealand" conjured up two images for me (in the following order):
- sheep, and
- the breathtaking countryside of Middle Earth
As you can imagine, my trip would have felt incomplete if I had returned home without seeing a good amount of either of these things. Some hasty web-based research revealed a sleepy coastal town by the name of Paraparaumu (Para-pa-raow-moo) on the Kapiti coast – an hour's train ride from Wellington. Given my hotel was a short walk from the train station and a ticket cost only NZ $10, it all seemed too serendipitous. And if I caught the 5pm back to Wellington, I would even have enough time to meet up with the Aussie FullCodePress team for dinner.
What could possibly go wrong?
Train travel will always be the most romantic form of travel – except perhaps rickshaw, but the only time I've tried that was when I was in Austin Texas for the SXSW conference one year. I was, well, drunk off my ass, and my caring colleagues kindly paid for a rickshaw to take my sorry self back to our hotel before I fell asleep in the corner of the bar. Actually, I might have fallen asleep in the bar first, which is probably why they called the rickshaw. But I digress. Damn Yahoo! and their bar tab.
Anyway … after the rickshaw, train travel is definitely up there for me. I know there are hardcore train boffins out there who can rattle off the names of every steam engine built in the last 500 years. Trust me, I'm not one of them. But I do love the speed at which long distance trains chug along – always constant, but never too hurried that you can't appreciate the scenery outside.
And plenty of scenery there was – the railway to Paraparaumu hugs coastal cliffs and tunnels through ominous mountains. The view out the window was nothing short of stunning, and I sat glued to my window as every twist and turn revealed more lush forest, grassy meadows, and – yes – plenty of sheep.
Halfway there, it started to rain. It should have been a sign, but I shrugged it off. I'm an optimist and figured it would probably stop soon. Plus, I had my raincoat. I was in New Zealand, and it was choice, bro.
Where We're Going, We Don't Need Trails
The next warning sign to which I should have paid attention was the fact that the Paraparaumu information centre was closed. It had been open the day before (they were moving premises) and would be reopening the day after. But on the day I needed them their door was shut tight. There were a few brochures outside, but none of them said anything about hiking trails.
I thumbed through the maps at a local newsagency, but no luck. Determined, I asked the attendant at the train station, an elderly gentleman with a trusting face, if he knew of any hiking trails in the area. He apologised, and suggested I take a stroll along the water's edge. "My wife and I take that walk every weekend."
I was looking for something a little more challenging than an old timer's regular route. Luckily, a softly spoken woman in her thirties at the station overheard our conversation, and piped up:
"There's a hiking trail up in the Nikau Forest. It's a bit of a walk."
I volunteered quickly that I enjoyed walking, and pressed her for more details. She drew helpfully on my tourist map, showing roughly where the trail began. It wasn't the clearest of maps, but it was enough for me. I had plenty of time, plenty of energy, and now I had a vague plan for where my conquering of Middle Earth would begin. I thanked both of my substitute guides, bought a packet of chips, chocolate, and some bottled water, and began my trek.
Oh. Did I mention that the rain was really starting to come down at this stage? I didn't care. I was an explorer!
Always Cross At The Lights
The next warning bell that I chose to ignore came as I was approaching the edge of town. There weren't any obvious pedestrian crossings, and I needed to cross the road. I waited for a break in traffic, looked both ways like a good Boy Scout, and legged it.
Around the corner, and moving with considerable momentum, appeared an old truck, rattling along the highway towards me. I picked up the pace, forgetting that the large amounts of rain had made the road kind of slippery. Oh, and the road was on quite an incline – a heady combination.
I was in no danger of being collected by the truck, but I'm sure the driver had a chuckle to himself as he thundered past. Had I been smack bang in the middle of a game of baseball, making a dash for home base, then the two-metre slide that I performed on my backside would have made me a hometown hero.
However I wasn't playing baseball. I was just crossing the damn road. And my home base wasn't constructed of soft, made-for-sliding dirt. It was hard bitumen. And it hurt. I still have a bruise and grazing down the side of my leg, four weeks later.
However, always the optimist, I was undeterred. You see, I really just wanted to get to the top of a whopping great hill and gaze out at the view beyond.
I grit my teeth, blocked out the pain that was beginning to creep up the side of my leg, and pressed onwards. Lush, green mountains loomed in the distance. I was determined to climb one of them.

This cheese has been made in Dorset since historical times. Traditionally, it was a byproduct of making butter, which was a lucrative market at that time. Skimmed milk was used to make Dorset Vinny cheese. This cheese was out of production for a long while, but has now again been revived by Mike Davies.
The aging process takes from 12 to 18 months. This crumbly textured cheese having strong flavour has very high fat content ranging from 40% to 46%. It is best paired with a red wine or port.

I'm confused. I do not get how the men in the Vatican(and I do mean men-- no women need apply) , who have covered up not decades, but centuries of child molestation and pedophilia, have the un-bridled gall to get their cassocks in a flap about American women using birth control and the American government paying for it. This is not the Middle Ages and this is the United States of America, where at least in theory, we have separation of Church and State.
In the wake of the new health care law requirements, Parish priests are carrying on like outraged virgins reading letters from Rome from the pulpit and adding their own editorial comments about Obama and the American government wanting to bring the Church to its knees etc. etc.
So the new health care law, which will provide health care to thousands of under and un insured, will also require Catholic institutions(which employ and provide health insurance to numerous non-Catholic women) to fund birth control pills for women who want them. Guess what-- women who don't want them don't have to take them. You would think that the clergy would be up for convincing their women they were sinning by using the pill rather than screaming like stuck pigs that just because they don't believe in birth control they should not have to pay for it for anybody.
I do not know one Catholic woman under the age of 50 ( and I've known a lot of Catholic women)who has not used " the pill" Back in the day, when I was a kid, Catholic families were large--seven eight or nine kids.... then BOOM!...., along came the birth control pill in the '60's (oddly enough invented by a devout Catholic Doctor from Boston) and suddenly Catholics were having only two or three children. Those big families were gone. Guess why?
March is women's history month and Rome and the Republican party are celebrating by climbing into bed with each other to put the screws on women.. Both groups better rethink this one because American women vote both at the ballot box where they will re-elect Obama and with their feet as they walk out of church and take their children ( especially the young boys) with them.

As the third term springs to life in our classrooms, have you thought of adding any new technologies to your lessons or your professional development? Here are some useful Microsoft in the classroom ideas to try out this term.
Think about introducing problem-based learning in your classroom... based on a real South African problem. I experienced a project like this recently where we had to think about a South African problem to solve using the problem-based approach. It was such a great way to tackle a problem in a group settting. If you want to know more about how to go about using the problem-based approach, there is a really good problem-based learning free course waiting for you on the Microsoft Educator Community. Upon successful completion of this course you will be able to:
- Understand the essential elements that make up a problem-based learning experience
- Articulate the importance of problem solving in relation to higher order thinking and 21st century learning
- Describe the need for PBL to allow for self-led learning and self-determination in students
- Recognize and implement each of the five PBL design principles in your planning
- Identify the characteristics of authentic assessment and understand why these are better suited to assessing authentic learning
- Apply theoretical assessment models to plan assessments that target the domains of knowing, thinking and doing
What could be better than that!
2. Use Minecraft: Education Edition in your classroom
There are many ways to use Minecraft: Education Edition in the classroom. Go to https://education.minecraft.net/ for loads of ideas and lesson plans. But what I noticed recently is that a problem-based group project works really well when you have the opportunity to demonstrate the solution using Minecraft Education Edition! Apart from all the critical thinking, creativity and collaborative skills that come in to play, the use of Minecraft: Education Edition in a project brings an excitement with it because the learners are making something using a product that 21st century learners love! You can read about a problem-based project that was done using Minecraft: Education Edition here.
3. Get your class doing the Hour Of Code on code.org
Another idea is to get your class to try out the Hour of Code. Coding is one of the vital future skills that our learners need. The Hour of Code usually happens on a day in December as a world-wide event, but it can actually be done at any time of the year. It is part of www.code.org which has amazing free offerings for all age groups of students. There are a number of different Hour of Code games to choose from. Your students will love them!
5. Get started with Microsoft's Story Remix on Windows 10
6. Try Book Creator - it's free on Windows 10
Talking of stories, did you know that Book Creator which was voted Best Educational App in the 2015 BETT Awards, is free on Windows 10? Book Creator is the simple way to make beautiful ebooks, right on your PC or Tablet. This Book creation app which is used in 80 countries is also available on Windows! With over 10 million ebooks created so far, Book Creator is ideal for making all kinds of books, including children's picture books, photo books, comic books, journals, textbooks and more. And when you're done, you can share your book with ease, or even publish it to online book stores! This is a must for exploring this term!

CM sells destination Odisha
State woos investors with infrastructure
- Published 13.09.18
Bhubaneswar: Chief minister Naveen Patnaik on Wednesday showcased Odisha as one of the fast-emerging manufacturing hubs of eastern India at an investors' meet in New Delhi. He also asked investors to explore the investment opportunities available in the state.
Naveen told the investors about Odisha's developed infrastructure, including how the state has increased its ports' capacity to handle cargo to the tune of 190 million metric tonnes, enhancing power generation and building a solid road network that was essential for the growth of industries.
In the run up to the second edition of the Make in Conclave in November, the investors' meet in New Delhi was the second important meeting Naveen held within a month to woo investors. "In the Make in Odisha Conclave to be held in from November 11 to 15, state plans to showcase the investment potential it offers in diverse sectors and the manufacturing prowess of the state," Naveen said.
The theme of the Make in Odisha conclave is " I am Odisha" that celebrates the success of the state in creating a vibrant eco-system for the growth of industry.
Like he did in Mumbai, in New Delhi also Naveen met industrialists including founder and CEO of Oyo Rooms Ritesh Agarwal and the ambassador of Japan to India Kenji Hiramatsu and invited them to be part of Odisha's growth story. Japan has agreed to be the country partner of the second edition of the Make in Odisha Conclave. Naveen had earlier sent an official delegation led by industries minister Ananta Das to Japan last month and invited industrialists to be a part of Make in Odisha Conclave.
Making it clear that state's natural strength lies in being mineral rich, Naveen said: "Odisha is the aluminium capital of south Asia accounting for over 54 per cent of the country's production. We are also counted as the steel hub of the country contributing about a quarter of India's steel production."
The chief minister also told the industrialists how his government had engaged in laying a road map - Vision2030: Development of Downstream & Ancillary in Metal Sector - with the aim of further vitalising downstream industries of the state.
Aware that other states' are also trying to woo investors, Naveen told the gathering how Odisha had launched a single user-friendly portal 'Invest Odisha' to enable the industry make informed investment decisions by comparing its competitiveness with other states and countries.
"It also engages with the investors through a unique chatbot 'Odishi', which provides customised information to the users," he said inviting them to "come and join the juggernaut".
In the first edition of the Make in Odisha Conclave held in 2016, the state had bagged investment intentions to the tune of Rs 2.03 lakh crore.
Odisha has set a target to implement fresh investments of at least Rs 1.5 lakh crore in the next three years out of the Rs 2.03 crore investment intentions promised in the first edition of the Make in Odisha conclave.
Officials said out of the total investment proposals received at the meet, metals and minerals sector was the top investment grosser with Rs 97,911 crore. Infrastructure followed next with proposals worth Rs 38,443 crore, power & renewable energy (Rs 29,932 crore) and fertilisers, chemicals & petrochemicals and plastics (Rs 27,023 crore).
An official said that Odisha had also bagged sizeable investments - manufacturing (Rs 2,685 crore), tourism (Rs 2,076 crore), food processing (Rs 2,101 crore), IT and electronics system design and manufacturing (Rs 1,500 crore) and textiles and handloom (Rs 172 crore).

Groundbreaking Method Uses Quantitative Protein Analysis to Identify New Biosignatures, for Personalized Treatments
GE Healthcare today announced at the 2013 Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology its plans for the commercialization of MultiOmyx, a ground-breaking new pathology platform, using proprietary methodology to analyze multiple proteins at a single-cell level. Traditional pathology uses multiple slices from paraffin-fixed tumor samples and examines them slide by slide, which is less efficient and effective. The platform, already in use in research, will now be introduced to the clinical environment and initially available for testing through a global service offering in Hodgkin lymphoma in July 2013 in GE Healthcare's CLIA licensed laboratory – Clarient Diagnostic Services, Inc. – a GE Healthcare Company.
MultiOmyx will enable pathologists to view multiple stains on a single tumor slice, and analyze the results at a single cell level. MultiOmyx, originally developed by GE Healthcare's Global Research Center, will be made available commercially by Clarient. The platform uses fluorescence to provide quantitative analysis of tumor antibodies and allows for more than 175 proteins to be examined on a single tissue sample.
"MultiOmyx opens up new possibilities for cancer research and development of innovative cancer prognostics and differential diagnostics," said Carrie Eglinton Manner, CEO, Clarient. "Using a single slide saves time, uses significantly less tissue and provides a far more consistent result. Since different parts of a tumor sample can act differently and because less tissue is required, pathologists can access the most accurate and broad tumor analysis available, while eliminating today's need to prioritize tests due to limited tissue availability."
The automated technology creates a "digital map" of the tumor, giving each cell an "address" and allowing for a clear graphic representation of protein expression. Matching this map to known biosignatures, or clinical information, gives researchers and pathologists a more accurate representation of the exact characteristics of the tumor and provides clinicians with a clearer view to the diagnosis. It also allows them to identify patterns in the tissue by analyzing each cell and biomarker individually, or as a cluster, and thus get a level of understanding of the biological process that could not be achieved via traditional immunohistochemistry process.
"In many instances, suspected Hodgkin lymphoma cases are not straightforward, and sample tissue size inadequacy issues further complicate the matter," said Lawrence Weiss, MD, Medical Director of Clarient. "Clarient utilized the innovative platform of MultiOmyx and developed a methodology to assess a set of markers on a single tissue section, identifying the level of expression of these markers on the very same cells, as opposed to working with serial sections which each contain different cells. In difficult to call diagnoses, MultiOmyx gives me great confidence in making the diagnosis and relieves me from the concern of running out of tissue. If I only have a small amount of tissue, I do not have to sacrifice or choose between important markers – I can assess them all."
"If we can have a much deeper understanding of what we see in a tumor, on a slide, region of interest or at a cellular level we can make references to known characteristics – metastasis, mortality, response to therapy and others – allowing for better guide programs of care and treatments for patients," added Eglinton Manner.
Clarient Diagnostic Services, Inc., acquired by GE Healthcare in December, 2010, combines innovative diagnostic technologies with world class pathology expertise to assess cancer. Clarient is a leading provider of diagnostic laboratory services, such as flow cytometry and molecular testing, and develops and markets new, proprietary diagnostic assays for therapeutics for breast, prostate, lung, ovarian, and colon cancers, and leukemia/lymphoma. Clarient also develops and validates new assays for its customers, speeding their use in the broader clinical setting.
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world. At GE, we envision a day when cancer is no longer a deadly disease. Today's announcement reinforces our commitment to fight cancer and reflects our current integrated portfolio and GE Healthcare's $1B R&D investment to advance oncology solutions by 2016. In parallel, GE's Healthymagination commitment is aimed at accelerating cancer innovation and improving care for 10 million cancer patients around the world by 2020. These commitments uniquely position GE to drive game-changing impact in oncology and a leap forward for individualized cancer care.
