Concentrates are created by the evaporation of water from the fruit juice. The evaporation of water is usually performed under vacuum conditions in which the concentration of the juice could increase by up to 7 times.
The concentrate is then reconstituted by the addition of water.
The main benefits of producing a concentrate is the reduction in weight and volume for transportation and the ability to store it longer and at more convenient temperatures compared with Juice NFC which is more sensitive to microbial spoilage and organoleptic changes.

Violinist Sarah Chang is a serious classical musician.
But the American-born prodigy who took Carnegie Hall by storm at the age of 8 and was the youngest person to receive the Hollywood Bowl's Hall of Fame award in 2004, likes to have fun, too.
More than 95 per cent of the 33-year-old globetrotter's schedule involves playing with orchestras. But when she gets a chance to go onstage with only a piano to accompany her, she likes to take liberties with the recital program.
Hence, the addition of Leonard Bernstein's West Side Story in the classics-heavy Feb. 25 concert at the Flato Markham Theatre.
"It's a fun program," she says in an interview from Boston. "It's a little more festive for main stage."
She has always loved Bernstein's music for West Side Story and commissioned a friend, David Newman of the famous musical family, to do a new arrangement for just violin and piano. The violin plays all the melodies.
"I do realize that some diehard classical fans will raise an eyebrow and ask, 'What the heck is she doing?' But then I do Prokofiev, which is serious."
Julio Elizalde is accompanying her on piano as he frequently does. He is a soloist, recital partner and chamber musician, and founder and pianist of the New York-based New Trio.
The program includes Niccolo Paganini's "Cantabile in D major, Op. 17"; Tomaso Vitali's "Chaconne in G minor" and Sergey Prokofiev's "Sonata No. 2 in D major, Op. 94a."
"It's not all dessert menu," laughs Chang, who calls Philadelphia home — if she ever gets to go to her house there. The Boston engagement was followed by San Diego and New Jersey before arriving in Toronto.
It's to be a one-performance touchdown in Toronto before heading off to London, Scotland and "onwards and upwards," she says.
"I'm constantly jet-lagged so I sleep a lot," she says, adding, "Because I'm a girl, I like to shop. I love to be in a city where I have friends and lounge and chat.
"I am always eating out in restaurants so if I go to a place and have a home-cooked meal, it is a huge treat."
She says she tries to pick gowns for her performances that match the music she is playing, whether Bach or Beethoven.
"I'm representing that composer. I want the dress to be beautiful, but I must make sure it is not a distraction."
She will change outfits during the intermission of the show, she promises, adding that matching clothing to composer has proven to be a lot of fun.
"I won't wear the same dress for West Side Story as for Prokofiev."
Travelling from warm venues (California) to cold ones (Toronto) means carrying clothes for all temperature zones when on the concert trail.
"For me, it will travel with four, five, six gowns," says Chang. She comes prepared, having performed at the Markham Theatre four years ago.
Sarah Chang and Julio Elizalde are at the Flato Markham Theatre, Feb. 25, 8 p.m. Tickets $79-74, 905-305-7469

Alright, guys, get ready for this adorable girl: Taylor Neely!
Can you tell this girl's amazing just from these shots? She truly is!
1. Where are you from?
A: I am from Drop, Texas – a small farming community about 20 miles west of Denton, TX.
2. How many times have you been to Guatemala, and why?
A: I go to Guatemala at least once a year with my mom to visit my abuelo, tios, y primos (as I am media-chapina). There have only been two or three years that I can recall in which I have not been able to visit – I am 24 years old so I've been about 22 times…ish
3. Tell us about your experience most recently in Antigua… what were you doing? Why Antigua? And how did everything go?
A: I am currently working on my Doctorate of Physical Therapy through Hardin-Simmons University in Abilene,TX. My school was generous enough to let me do clinical internship at a place called Healing Hands Therapy Spa – I had met the Physical Therapist who owns the clinic 2 years prior and was invited to complete an internship with her. Therefore, my most recent trip to Antigua was a beautiful 2 months of learning, gaining friendships and discovering new perspectives through being able to treat people from all walks of life (i.e., natives, x-pats, retired foreigners, tourists, etc.).
My time in Antigua left me with a heart that is discontent with the idea of sharing my skills only in the states. This trip acted as a catalyst to my future plans of bringing my professional skills back to Guate and using them (pro bono) to help a population that doesn't have immediate access to the type of healthcare that can bring immediate changes to overall quality of life. Along with gaining ambitions this past trip allowed me to meet unique, dynamic, and fantastic individuals that I am proud to call my friends.
4. Are you a yoga guru?
A: Ha, no. I am no guru, but I love doing it – It makes me feel like a ballerina.
5. Have you gone dancing in your boots in Texas yet?
A: Porsupuesto! I did a little two-steppin' in my boots at my sister's wedding. The leather soles are PERFECT for spins and twirls!
Taylor, come back soon. Antigua misses you!

Rescue Dogs for PTSD Veterans results in Restoration
Operation Orion – Rescue Dogs for Vets with PTSD
First Coast News, a local news station in Jacksonville FL, is launching Operation Orion and teaming up with K9s for Warriors and The Weaver Foundation. They've found that these "rescue dogs" are bringing a sense of restoration back to our veterans with PTSD.
K9s for Warriors started a home for veterans and dogs to pair them up. The facility only houses four vets at a time and the waiting list is over a year. First Coast News will be opening a new facility in June that will house 16 warriors at a time. They are looking for donations from the community and general public to help fund the continuation of the program.
The program goal is to train rescue dogs from shelters to serve veterans with PTSD or traumatic brain injury. Professional dog trainers work for months with dogs rescued from shelters. Upon arrival at the home, warrior veterans are paired up with their K9 and receive customized training with their dogs. The new facility will include a basketball court, a pool, and other comforts to help them. The vets will live at the facility, receive meals and training for free until they are ready to take home their dog.
The video below features Randy who is a veteran suffering with PTSD. He generously served 26 and a half years of active duty and guard duty. He recently graduated from the K9s for Warriors facility with his service dog, Louie. Louie can actually sense a panic attack before Randy even realizes it and has the ability to calm him.
The dogs bond with their warriors in such a special way that seems to address the needs of the veterans which helps to provide some healing, restoration and hope. The dogs, who have been carefully selected from shelters are serving a purpose far beyond pet. They are both companions and life savers to the veterans.
The question is who is being rescued? The dog or the vet? I think both. It's definitely a win-win!

The Construction Authority took an important step this week in the process to hire the Alignment design-build contractor. The official Request for Proposals was released to the four pre-qualified, short-listed teams. The RFP includes ninety-thousand pages of updated engineering and project information, including detailed drawings of every aspect of the 12.3-mile project. The four short-listed teams vying for the more than $700 million contract are (in alphabetical order): AECOM | Stacy and Witbeck JV; Herzog Rados Lane, a Joint Venture; Kiewit-Parsons, a Joint Venture; and San Gabriel Valley Transit Partners (STP), a Joint Venture of Fluor and Ames.
The teams have until September 12, 2018 to submit proposals; after which, each will be reviewed by several committees of experts and ranked. A winning bidder will be selected later this year.
Below, the W.A. Rasic Construction team continues their work to relocate and protect utilities that cross the railroad right of way from Glendora to Montclair. Completing this work in advance of the Alignment design-build contract reduces risk for the future contractor. To date, Rasic crews have completed nearly half of the total work tasks, with the remaining utilities to be completed this year.

How people lived in the area of the Bosnian pyramid valley
Landscape that formed after the Atlantean catastrophe
Atlantis, despite all the artefacts found so far proving its existence, is not accepted by scientists due to the fact that they cannot prove it in historic connections using their methods. It is a paradox and typical for the main stream science that all those who believe in its existence are considered to be fantasists.
The development of the Atlantis civilization, the fourth one on the planet Earth, lasted approximately 750,000 years. It was situated in the territory from the current southern part of the United States and Central America as far as the Western Europe. It existed from the time of extinction of a previous society whose centre was in the area of South-Western Asia – Middle East. Atlantis and its civilisation ended with a huge natural disaster but it was caused by irresponsible actions of a group of people who wanted to become famous.
It is natural that Atlantean society also developed first in primitive conditions but in some areas it continued the knowledge achieved by the preceding civilization. This means that it went through some stages, such as forming of units of power and their fighting for power, i.e. states necessary for development of an Immaterial being – Creative Spirit in the material body – a human.
It is also necessary to point out that there is a current belief in the scientific circles that an evolutionary leap in the history of the genus "Homo" occurred approx. 800,000 years ago in Africa and one group of these advanced prehistoric people populated Europe a minimum of 800,000 years ago. This is the only thing we can accept as the beginning of development of a new community on Earth. In reality, they populated a territory where the Atlantean society was being formed because Europe before the catastrophe was not separated from the African continent.
This part of the series is focused on the conditions of being of humans in the period of the peak development period of the Atlantis society.
At that time people had information at their disposal on the basis of which they were able to construct and use technology which is currently connected with the "most vivid imagination". Therefore also thinking of the current science about the way of construction of megalithic buildings (pyramids) is erroneous. As we specify in the second part of this series, connecting these constructions with Palaeolithic culture and its achieved technical possibilities is a product of the distorted understanding of the history of humans on the Earth, i.e. incorrect interpretation of objectively assessed artefacts. In reality, in the border areas of the Atlantean society and also in the area of the Balkans, the locals influenced by the civilisation had already been living much earlier.
The following lines might seem unreal to some of you. But it is up to each individual how this information will be perceived from the point of view of their achieved spiritual development.
The centre of the Atlantean society was situated around the 20th parallel in the area of the current Bermudas in the Atlantic Ocean. The climatic conditions were much more balanced than nowadays. The difference between the winter and summer period in this temperate zone was minimum. It was also supported by the existence of another satellite of the Earth – the moon Nao. Only astrologers have been operating with it until nowadays as the black moon called Lilith without knowing its origin. Even among astrologers there are different views and estimates of its influence on the Earth. For science it is an uninteresting fact like everything that cannot be measured, weighed, described and examined materially.
The produce grown for food was harvested twice a year in these climatic conditions therefore it was not necessary to create any stock for both humans and fauna.
It was mainly rice, a kind of wheat similar to the nowadays spelt wheat, maize, oats, amaranth and sunflower. The other cereals we know nowadays grew wild and were not significant. They started to be important after the catastrophe when there was lack of food due to the change of the climatic conditions.
They also grew vegetables, which included mainly onions, garlic, potatoes, carrots and other kinds of vegetables which we know nowadays – cucumbers, pumpkins and tomatoes.
As regards fruit, it was mainly citruses, pomegranates, apples and bananas. A special position belonged to olive groves and vineyards. Wine, as we know it nowadays as an alcoholic drink, was not produced in the peak stage of the Atlantean society, even though in the early stage of its development it was commonly available as well as spirits made from it.
Grapes were mainly a source of grape sugar (glucose). It was well known that glucose is essential for the metabolic functions of the human body and mainly the brain cells and red blood cells cannot be without it. The waste from this production (skins and remaining fibre) is then processed to wine vinegar. It was not used as food but mainly as a cleaner and disinfectant.
Grapes were also pressed into juice used for drinking. When guarana resin (contained in the seeds of Paullinia Cupana) was added, the juice did not ferment and obtained the properties of today's alcoholic drink – wine, but without the content of alcohol. Moreover, the content of caffeine in the resin gave the drink the properties of a tonic with additional effects beneficial for health. It was an ideal drink of the type of today's coca-cola but without having any chemical additives which, as we know, have negative impacts on our health balance.
If they bred animals, it was not for meat but for products taking of which did not harm the animals (milk, honey, wool etc.). It was controversial to eat meat as such, fish and eggs. It was not banned but its consumers were mostly people of the lower degree of development living in the areas distant from the centre because as nowadays there were human communities all over the planet as remnants of previous civilizations. There were no carnivorous animal species, only species which liquidated dead animals.
The territory of current Bosnia
It was one of the provinces where the surrounding countryside provided sufficient food for all the fauna, including the inhabitants. Moreover, it was an area with significant production and processing of mineral resources. This fact was only indicated by presence of a complex of pyramids visible from far away. During the mentioned catastrophe when the human factor caused the destruction of the moon Nao, extensive earthquakes and volcanic activity started on the Earth. The whole area of Bosnia and adjacent extensive territories were under water for a long time.
The climatic conditions changed instantly, the Earth was covered with a cloud of scattered matter and it prevented sunrays getting to the Earth for a long time. Many species depending on green plants died out and for the surviving population it was fighting for bare life. Nevertheless, the life in the areas not affected by the catastrophe slowly reached a new balance using the achievable old technological knowledge.
What was the life like in urban units and in rural areas of Atlantis before the catastrophe?
It is a period when this society achieved the highest degree of spiritual knowledge and the connected technological level.
The urban concept of settlements was fully subordinated to the knowledge of the vital energy flows. The layout and constructions were based, like in the pyramids and similar industrial constructions, from the relations of polarity between the matter and Immatter. Always when it was necessary to assess the use of the properties of Immatter, it was based on the volumes in the proportion of the "golden section", which defines polarity in the Universum System.
As a result the material proportions of settlements were arranged using the same principle as layout of electrons in the orbit spheres of atomic matter which expresses its thickening. Also the current materialistic science came to an at least partial understanding that the numbers of electrons on the orbits of volume atoms are placed in the direction from the nucleus in numbers 2 – 8 – 8 – 18 – 18 – 32. It is not known yet that also the nucleus particles as well as electrons on the orbits are gradually more and more thickened, i.e. they are penetrated with sections of Immaterial Energy which connect to each other in the individual spheres which defines their spatial layout and polarity in relation to the nucleus.
The depiction of concentric circles represents graphically the layout of the settlement – the land alternated with canals with almost stagnant water where the flowing Immaterial energy was cumulated evenly. The colour scheme corresponds to the orbital zones in an atom along which the matter particles move, as described above. The figure therefore shows that alternating zones of land and water are in a polarity relation.
The properties of the land in the middle (dark centre) made it suitable for construction of seats of administrative bodies, educational institutions and other public facilities, the green sphere was residential and the blue one was used for relaxation and social life.
It is important to know that the above specified settlement proportions are based on the principle of polarity definition of Immatter and Matter, as it is in the whole Universe. It was important to make sure that the individual constructions would not create "shade" in the flow of the Immaterial "fluid" not perceivable by human senses and to have a neutral subsoil under the construction. Basically it means that also the flow of ground water was monitored to prevent occurrence of zones which are currently called "pathogenic zones".
All the parts of the land were interconnected with purposefully situated bridges so that the individual parts of the land became something like transformers. It was also supported by the material from which the bridges were constructed. Embankments were also built and paved from natural materials of certain properties (black and red granite, white quartz). A more detailed explanation of directing of the Immaterial Energy flows depending on the arrangement of types of matter is given in the following parts of this series in connection with construction, purpose and energy mode of pyramids.
Every residential construction was energetically self-reliant as the calculated construction, building material and roof were "drawing" energy from free space at the same time. Inside the building there was thus constant temperature and hot water available. Water supply and waste disposal were also solved in a sensitive way.
Construction materials included mainly blocks from silicates and hard wood and roofs of a special construction were covered with copper sheet metal or an antimony compound. The difference between urban and rural development was only in the layout of constructions. For illustration, find below a schematic picture of a residential unit and its approximate appearance.
Certain construction elements and construction layout have been preserved until nowadays in the South Italian region of Apulia in the form of trulli houses.
Another interesting fact as regards the flow of the "fluid" not perceivable by human senses will be found if we put a Feng Shui octagon next to the layout of an Atlantean residential building (see below). It is a graphic depiction of the flow of Immaterial energy with its origin in Ancient China where it was used for diagnosis of energy qualities of rooms and it applied the I-ting wisdom as regards space for healthy being of humans.
An octagon divides any space into nine areas where specific properties of matter under the influence of the Immaterial Energy are reflected.
Disharmony in the individual sections and long-term stay of a human being in it leads to distortion of their health and mind balance and the resulting effects on their activities. On the contrary, if the living space is in balance, it supports the well-being of the person, mainly the psychic one, which is a condition for all their activities and health.
Area of helpful people – the quality of the section of Immaterial fluid influences all the relations of any kind (friends, business partners, colleagues etc.),
Area of carrier influences the work activities by which everybody has to make their living,
Area of knowledge affects the psychic, inner, spiritual and personal mood, i.e. emotional and mental states,
Area of family influences the development of family harmony and solving of interpersonal family conflicts,
Area of wealth correlates with prosperity and well-being,
Area of fame is responsible for the reputation of a person and its presentation towards the external surroundings,
Area of marriage (partnership) relates to the state of the existing serious relationship but also a crucial business relationship,
Area of children is related not only to children but also to creativity and communication,
Area of health influences all the areas of being, not only the health balance – quality of energy of all eight areas goes through here and connects there.
This graph is currently known rather as the below specified chart where the sum of all the numbers in all directions is fifteen. It expresses a balanced polarity and connected spatial layout of the matter in which the Information of the corresponding flow of Immaterial Energy beams are inserted gradually.

Let's return to the characteristics of the octagon areas as it expresses the stream of Immaterial energy beams and influence of their sections to the well-being of humans. Why it is so and what it is connected with is not covered by this series. The mentioned relations result from the Universum System and they are derived in the booked called "Svět je jinak" ("The world is different"). Now let's accept it as a fact for explanation of construction of a residential unit in Atlantis.
If we compare an octagon with the ground floor of a construction cell, it is clear that all that is connected with external material manifestations of people is concentrated in the residential zone and all that is connected with the inner life is in the relaxation zone. In other words, all the material things (yang) are in the "daytime area", all the spiritual (yin) is in the "night-time area". However, this does not solve everything and a lot can be ruined by an unsuitable layout of house furnishings and accessories.
Next part of this thematic series will be focused on information about residential interior furnishing and standard lifestyle in the peak Atlantis.
Ing. Zdeněk Svoboda, CSc.

Election Day Tuesday could best be described as soggy and raw in Rappahannock County, with temperatures hovering around 40 degrees. At the Castleton polling station, write-in candidate for supervisor David Konick is seen here manning a campaign tent that rivaled a tailgate party; while a few steps away his opponent, incumbent Supervisor Chris Parrish, lured voters to his tent with hot coffee and cinnamon cake.
Ducking into the Castleton firehouse to vote, meanwhile, were Richard and Mary Krammes of Boston; while Democratic poll watcher Francie Schroeder huddled beneath her umbrella in Washington. Despite the rain, voting countywide was described as steady throughout the day.

Cary, North Carolina
Landscape Architecture, Planning and Transportation/Civil/Electrical Engineering by Clark Nexsen
Cary, North Carolina (pop. 135,234), in the central part of the state, might be called a bedroom community for the cities of Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill. It's estimated that less than 30 percent of Cary's population was born here. Cary is growing and prospering. It's noted for having good public schools and for being a safe community. It's bounded by Research Triangle Park, home to over 200 companies, including a large IBM facility, and employs 50,000 workers and 10,000 contractors.
Academy Street runs through the heart of downtown, and is the signature street of the Town Center area plan to create a vibrant and pedestrian-friendly downtown environment. Clark Nexsen worked closely with Cary town officials to craft a streetscape design that promotes the emerging arts district, and serves as a destination for residents and visitors.
Completed in spring of 2017, this project aimed to enhance the pedestrian experience and re-energize the streetscape. There was extensive public outreach and involvement of the town council and representatives from multiple city departments to create an engaging connector between the Arts District, Village and "Main Street" areas. From sidewalk widening to the addition of clearly marked parking, this project has delivered a positive impact for downtown Cary. Academy Street safely accommodates drivers, public transit, cyclists and pedestrians in an environment focused on walkability and functionality for businesses and events.
"Outdoor rooms" are at the core of the reimagined streetscape concept and provide environments for groups to gather and enjoy the active downtown scene. Connected by widened, 10-foot sidewalks that feature intermittent seating, these rooms integrate public art and serve as a distinguishing element.
Artistic elements abound along Academy Street, reflecting the district's use as a festival and public performance venue. Jack Mackie, the team's artist, researched the area's history to incorporate art that would resonate with residents. These efforts involved coordination with Cary Visual Arts, a nonprofit that organizes rotating art displays along Academy Street, and the integration of art, such as granite benches carved in the shape of musical instruments and engraved with quotes related to music or Cary's history.
The Academy Street design was focused on accommodating downtown festivals. The new wide sidewalks, public seating and overall layout facilitate a positive experience for attendees. Enhanced electrical infrastructure, buried utilities and the addition of high-voltage outlets along the street support the needs of bands, vendors and food trucks.
Customized materials on Academy Street support the design in creating a sense of place. The granite benches, which pay homage to the area's music history, are composed of North Carolina granite with varying polished and flame finishes. 'Scarborough' style metal benches and 'Parc Centre' bistro tables and chairs offer a variety of fixed and mobile seating along the streetscape, providing visitors with options to relax and enjoy the atmosphere. Landscaping is accented in multiple ways. Some of the large existing trees (and temporary art) are uplit; there are also LED tree string lights and 'Camellia' patterned tree grates. Duke Energy provided the pedestrian-scale LED street lighting. Alternative modes of transportation, such as biking, are promoted by the inclusion of custom bike racks with a dogwood flower motif.
New pavers for the sidewalk and roadway bring a complementary aesthetic. The sidewalk hardscape includes Pine Hall brick and Hanover 12"x12" pedestrian pavers. Hanover 4"x8" pavers were also incorporated on the street, including lane markings with pavers in yellow and white. There are also solar accent pavers that charge during the day and glow all night.
The project was successful largely due to extensive community involvement. When redesigning and constructing a streetscape, the potential is always there for negative impacts on businesses and residents, particularly with street closings, detours and slower traffic. By facilitating extensive stakeholder involvement, the team was able to keep the public up-to-date on all project phases. Today, there is a sense of positive energy brought on by the new streetscape. Since completion, the downtown area is flourishing, with local shops reporting an increase in business and foot traffic.
Academy Street recently won a Community Enhancement Champion Award from the Triangle Commercial Real Estate Women.

Legalize Gay Marriages and educate LGBT+ Rights in Malaysia
This petition had 183 supporters
As Malaysia slowly develops into a better nation, Malaysians should also be educated that being part of the LGBT+ community does not make them any less of a human being. Individuals of the LGBT+ community should earn equal rights as heterosexuals and cis-gendered individuals. How would it make any logical sense when it is up to heterosexuals to decide whether their 'foreign' or 'peculiar' sexuality is a choice? Why should it be the Malaysian government's decision to declare homosexuality a 'disease'? Whether homosexuality, bisexuality, transgender identities (and other LGBT+ sexuality) are a choice or not, what harm could it possibly inflict on other individuals?
I have bumped into countless of LGBT+ individuals, that I believe shouldn't be discriminated, live in fear/anxiety and deserve to lead a manageable and simple life, provided with basic human rights. Countless of murderers, rapists and criminals in general are on the loose, committing far worse crimes, potentially harming others, yet somehow, individuals with different sexual orientations or/and having gender identities that differs from their assigned sex are the main focus.
Malaysia is a Muslim-majority country, and a nation of diverse individuals. However, why should it put LGBT+ Non-Muslims' human rights on a halt. With further research being conducted, it should all start by educating citizens that homosexuality is not a contagious disease carried out by gay pathogens, but just having a sexual preference for the same gender, in which I strongly believe that there are far worse problems in which we need to shine more light on.
Would it make sense when rapists and abusers are sentenced to imprisonment on an average of 10 years, while homosexuals that were caught having consensual sexual intercourse are imprisoned up to twenty years and possible whipping?
Individuals of the LGBT+ community tend to receive unnecessary discrimination on a daily basis, due to the negative light Malaysia has shone on the community. LGBT+ individuals are being bullied over being someone they did not choose to be. Though some LGBT+ individuals may not be discriminated, there is a possible chance of them living in a metaphorical cell where they can't be themselves. Baby steps into being more accepting LGBT+ individuals are encouraged. As the Malaysian Parliament holds the power, it is up to them to educate Malaysians about the LGBT+ community, widening their view and leaving what society has generalized behind.
Being a homosexual Muslim, I believe that my Islamic beliefs shouldn't hold back other LGBT+ individuals from happiness.

After hundreds of years of domestication, it is sometimes easy to forget that our dogs used to be wild animals.
If you own a Bichon Frise or a Chihuahua, it can be difficult to imagine how such small dogs could survive by themselves in the big, bad world. However, dogs did use to have to fend for themselves, and that wild streak still forms part of their genetic makeup.
The idea behind Taste of the Wild dog food is to tap into these instincts by providing wet and dry food made from all natural ingredients. With real roasted meats, fruits and vegetables, Taste of the Wild aims to provide dog food that is as similar as possible to your dog's wild diet.
Notable ingredients include salmon oil, which contains an omega-3 fatty acid known as DHA to support brain development, and chelated minerals, which help your pet absorb all of the useful nutrients in the food. Taste of the Wild also uses blueberries and raspberries, a great source of antioxidants, and dried chicory root, which contains probiotics to help regulate the digestive system.
The grain-free formulas have been tested for taste, contain easily digestible energy sources and boost the immune system thanks to the presence of antioxidants. Each of the products in the Taste of the Wild contains a different selection of ingredients in order to meet the specific dietary needs of different dogs.
Taste of the Wild offers different foods for different ages and sizes of dogs. Two dry foods are available for puppies, namely High Prairie Puppy Formula and Pacific Stream Puppy Formula.
The former is made with roasted bison and roasted venison, and the latter contains smoked salmon. Both foods contain DHA to encourage brain development and antioxidants which keep your pet healthy.
Owners of smaller breeds should consider Appalachian Valley Small Breed Formula. This food is made with venison and garbanzo beans, with a smaller kibble which is better suited to your dog's teeth and jaw.
Another benefit is the fact that this small breed food is energy dense. It also contains more protein and fat, which means that your small dog is able to eat smaller portions while still fulfilling its dietary requirements. The food contains garbanzo beans, which provide plenty of fiber to regulate blood sugar and aid in digestion.
Those with medium and large adult dogs have a number of options. Choose from Southwest Canyon with wild boar, Pine Forest with venison and legumes, and Sierra Mountain with roasted lamb, among others.
Taste of the Wild also offers a number of wet foods. They have the same names as their dry counterparts and are intended to work together to provide a complete dietary solution for your pet. You can add a few scoops of wet food to a bowl of dry food in a practice known as "top-dressing," or mix wet food with dry in order to make the meal more appetizing.
Wet foods are available in Pacific Stream, High Prairie, Wetlands, Sierra Mountain, and Southwest Canyon flavors. The canned foods can also be used as a primary food for especially fussy dogs.
The wet foods contain the same blend of high-quality ingredients as the dry foods, with an emphasis on taste and health benefits. Taste of the Wild does not offer supplements or treats at this point in time.
The company says that each of its foods are specially formulated in order to negate the need for extra supplements. However, Taste of the Wild does say that you can add specific supplements to treat certain conditions if you need to, although it recommends consulting your vet before adding anything to your pet's diet.
Taste of the Wild works hard to gain pet owners' trust, and one way of doing so is using an enhanced guaranteed analysis. These figures tell you the percentages of different kinds of nutrients that a bag of dog food contains.
For example, owners of active dogs may want a food that is high in protein, and the guaranteed analysis published on each Taste of the Wild food will inform you whether levels of protein are sufficient for your pet's needs. This is also important in foods aimed at puppies, which need increased amounts of certain nutrients in order to boost growth and development.
If the idea of satisfying your dog's wild instincts appeals to you, Taste of the Wild is a good choice. The natural ingredients are selected for quality and nutrition, meaning that you can rest safe in the knowledge that you are giving your pet the best chance of living a healthy, happy life.

JSI's August Oddleifson and Steve Meerman offer key findings from the Rhode Island Department of Health's 2015 Statewide Health Inventory.
Dashboards: A Force for Good, Great, or Greater Confusion?
JSI's Amanda Makulec and Barbara Knittel and Mercy Corps' John Skeltong share five key takeaways for anyone embarking on the process of designing a dashboard.
Data Design for the Manager's Mind
Well designed data can have a huge impact on evidence-based decision making, but transforming numbers and spreadsheets into illuminating data visualizations can be daunting. JSI's Amanda Makulec provides invaluable resources aimed at helping evaluators and managers maximize the impact of program data.
How to Show that Strengthening Health Systems Saves Lives?
Dr. Arshad Mahmood, Deputy Chief of Party of JSI's Health System Strengthening Project in Pakistan, has spent the majority of his professional life monitoring and evaluating Pakistan's health interventions, asking important questions about program impact: Is our program improving health? Is it saving lives? Could this intervention improve health more efficiently and sustainably?
Empowering Stakeholders to Use Data for Decisionmaking
JSI conducts workshops with key stakeholders to ensure their ability to collect and analyze data and apply it to actionable work plans.
Recording Temperatures to Save Lives: Ebola prevention in the United States
While the number of Ebola cases in West Africa continue to decrease, it is still important that countries nationwide take necessary precautions to prevent the spread of Ebola and other infections. Through programs like Massachusetts Ebola Virus Monitoring Project, travelers can be sure that the reporting process goes as smoothly as possible so that they and their communities remain healthy.
Fighting Ebola in Guinea
Dr. Alimou Barry traveled to Guinea, ground zero of the Ebola outbreak in West Africa, to conduct a rapid assessment of the implications of the outbreak on reproductive, maternal and child health services usage and delivery.
Sustainable Change: Georgia's Second Reproductive Age Mortality Study
Nino Berdzuli, Chief of Party of the SUSTAIN project in Georgia, blogs on the findings of the recent reproductive age mortality studies (RAMOS), which show a 40% decline in maternal mortality in the country between 2006-2012.
Big Data and Public Health
Interest in the concept of "big data" is growing rapidly. But what is it exactly? And how can it be used to improve public health?
The Time is Now for Improving Routine Health Information Systems
The crucial role of routine health information systems in improving health service delivery cannot be overstated. As we look to new era of the sustainable development goals, having reliable, routine data will be critical to understanding where gaps in coverage, access, or equity exist and can be improved with the right investments. Across … Continue reading "The Time is Now for Improving Routine Health Information Systems"

The U.S. Senate recently confirmed three more federal judicial nominees, raising the total number of judges appointed by Donald Trump to 31. The Senate is trying to confirm as many judges as possible before the November election, when the Senate may change hands and put the brakes on. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell recently said, "I believe that's the most important thing we're doing."
Confirming federal judges is one of the Senate's most critical and lasting responsibilities. Appointed for life, judges should be fair, independent and committed to equal justice under law. The courts they preside over ensure that civil rights statutes prohibiting racial and other discrimination are preserved and respected. These laws include the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and the Fair Housing Act of 1968, whose 50th anniversary we celebrated in April.
The Trump administration is trying to remake the federal courts, one appointment at a time. The commitment to diversity — long shared by presidents of both parties — no longer exists. Of 106 nominations, only one is African American. Many nominees are dangerous ideologues who show contempt for the rule of law even on the fundamental principle of equality. Consider Louisiana nominee Wendy Vitter, who refused to tell the Senate Judiciary Committee that Brown v. Board of Education was correctly decided.
I am urging our two senators to reject the nomination of Thomas Farr, one of the next nominees to be voted upon by the Senate. Even among a parade of horribles, Mr. Farr stands out with his anti-civil rights record.
Nominated to the Eastern District of North Carolina where many African Americans reside, Mr. Farr is a throwback to an era we thought was long behind us. He learned how to battle civil rights from his mentor, North Carolina's notorious segregationist Sen. Jesse Helms. Sen. Helms taught him everything he knows, and Mr. Farr has made him proud.
Mr. Farr aligned himself with white supremacists in the truest sense. He had ties to the Pioneer Fund, one of the nation's oldest hate groups founded in 1937 to study "racial betterment." The Pioneer Fund sponsored research into theories that African Americans were genetically inferior to whites. Its political connections ran straight through Helms and his vast enterprise that thrived on racial division.
Mr. Farr played a role in the some of the country's most racist political campaigns, including Helms' campaign for Senate in 1984, cited by a court as an example of how racism continued to flourish in North Carolina politics. Mr. Farr engaged in voter intimidation during Sen. Helms' 1990 campaign against Harvey Gantt, the first black mayor of Charlotte. Mr. Gantt was gaining ground, so the Helms team plotted to intimidate African Americans from voting by sending them postcards, warning they could face prison time for voting. This was so egregious that the Republican-led Justice Department charged them with Voting Rights Act violations.
Mr. Farr's efforts to disenfranchise black voters continued to the present. He helped to craft and defend North Carolina's "monster voter suppression law," which a federal appellate court ruled was intentionally discriminatory and targeted African Americans with "almost surgical precision."
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. famously stated, "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." This applies to the federal courts, too. This is why the NAACP in Alaska care about a judgeship in North Carolina. We cannot allow someone ardently opposed to equal rights to assume the bench anywhere. It threatens our justice system everywhere.
We need Sen. Lisa Murkowski and Sen. Dan Sullivan to stand on the right side of civil rights history when it comes to voting on the Farr nomination.
Kevin D. McGee is the president of the Anchorage branch #1000 of the NAACP.

To all of the colleagues who knew her, the news of Nella Uitvlugt's sudden and unexpected home-going a week ago today was a shocking heartbreak. While we rejoice knowing that she is enjoying the glorious presence of the One she loves, we already miss her amazing presence in our disability ministry community. While I know others worked much more closely with Nella, I thought it an appropriate tribute to list just a few of the things that I had the privilege of watching her do well:
- Nella had a special gift of warmth and joy. With a smile that could light up an entire city, she instantly made you feel welcomed. Nella was gifted at loving people, no matter who they were. Is it any wonder she was loved by so many?
- Not only did she see the best in everyone, she had a gift for drawing it out of them. Nella wasn't satisfied with merely including the disabled. She wanted full engagement for them, and had the ability to make it happen. Her smile made it look like this all came easily, but it was her tireless pursuit and devotion that transformed these goals into reality.
- When our organization started using the Friendship curriculum in our Special Needs Sunday School, it was Nella who followed up to make sure it was working for us and that there was no extra support needed in it's use, not an underling. In other words, not only did she care about how the outcome of those using the Friendship Ministries tools, she had the heart of servant leader in assuring the effectiveness of what her organization had put forth.
- Expounding on the servant leadership, Nella was humble. Despite the size of her ministry, she never reach a point where she was above serving. Her humility was one of those unspoken qualities about her that made her a woman of such endearing character.
- Nella was a leader of leaders. How many people she poured into in a seemingly effortless way. At today's leadership conferences, we are taught that it's all about relationship. Nella was doing that long before the gurus of our time were ever proclaiming its value.
- She never stopped learning. Part of her humility was revealed in Nella's never-ending willingness to discover more. She was extremely gifted at what she did. Yet, I was completely stunned when she came to me, wanting to know more about the parent mentoring that our organization had developed, and how it might bless the families she already served.
- Nella was a trailblazer. Without the precedent set by her, so many ministries just like ours would not exist. Nella was being inclusive before that word was even widely used in our community. Her desire for total involvement in worship by the disabled was revolutionary when it came on the scene. And for that we, her colleagues, owe her a huge debt of gratitude.
You can read more about our amazing friend on the page created in her memory at Friendship Ministries.

Module 1: Getting Started with SharePoint 2013
This module introduces SharePoint 2013 concepts to site collection and site administrators. Once administrators can explain basic terminology and how to navigate around SharePoint, they have a solid foundation for the rest of the course.
After completing this module, students will be able to:
Module 2: Planning a Company Portal Using SharePoint 2013
Governance in SharePoint plays a critical role in determining the potential success of a SharePoint deployment. When a greater emphasis is placed on governance, it gives organizations a better chance to succeed in the deployment and maintenance of SharePoint. Each organization must ensure that the proper policies and procedures are in place to keep SharePoint aligned with the overall business goals, even as business needs change. This module introduces the concept of governance and highlights best practices.
Module 3: Creating a Company Portal
The first major milestone, after planning the company portal, is executing and building the site structure. The site structure includes the components for storing and presenting information namely sites, lists and libraries and apps, which are new to SharePoint 2013. Because the site structure provides the framework for the entire portal, it is essential that site collection administrators have a firm grasp of creating sites, document libraries and lists, as well as managing navigation.
Lab : Creating a Structured Company Portal
Module 4: Creating Consistency across Sites

Kitchen lighting buying guide
Brighten up the kitchen with task and ambient lighting
The lighting in your kitchen is vital to this busiest of rooms. We know that your kitchen is everything from the family dining area to where the culinary magic happens; a spot for homework and for parties. And with so much living going on, it can be hard to settle on a lighting scheme that works for everything and everyone.
That's where we can help. We're here to explore and explain all of your kitchen lighting options. So, whether you're redesigning your whole kitchen or just giving it a style refresh, we've got you covered.
Let's start shedding some light on how to find your perfect kitchen lighting.
Before you begin
By identifying what you need from your lighting, you can better understand what your lighting options are.
Kitchen update or a complete refit?
If you're updating your existing lighting with something similar, this can be quite a simple job. We advise checking fittings before swapping them over.
However, if you're adding new lighting as part of a complete kitchen revamp, this offers the exciting prospect of a blank slate. Create the lighting environment that you've always wanted and be creative with the available options. It can be easy to underestimate the impact of good lighting in the kitchen, but when you're installing new kitchen cabinets, worktops and more, show a little love to your lighting and it could be a real showstopper.
Naturally, planning is required in both instances. Ensure you have accurate measurements before buying. And if you're tackling the complete kitchen project, select your lighting before work begins. This is because the electrical and fitting work will have to be undertaken before other jobs, such as installing the kitchen cabinets.
Consider the kitchen
It's essential to get a sense of the space when creating a lighting scheme for your kitchen. Here are some key considerations.
What size is the kitchen? Dimensions are important. A compact kitchen doesn't rule anything out, all options are still possible, but a very big space could benefit from one type of lighting over another. Or it could also mean a greater variety of lighting types would work well with distinct zones.
What is the shape of the kitchen? Again, whether it's L or U-shaped, galley or island, there's no wrong answer. Simply think over whether you want to accentuate the shape of the room through the lighting or not.
Is the kitchen a single room or is it open plan? This is more about how the space is used. Is it just for cooking or is it a multi-functional space with room for dining, relaxing and after school study? Again, the latter offers the opportunity to introduce lighting zones.
How high is the kitchen ceiling? Low ceilings suit lighting closer to the ceiling to offer the greatest amount of coverage and avoid any accidents.
What is the design style of the kitchen? Kitchen styles range loosely from classic to contemporary, though many combine elements of the two. Consider the overall look and feel of your kitchen when deciding how best to light it. Do you want it to complement or contrast? Or again, combine the two to suit to create something truly unique to your home.
Where in the kitchen is being lit?
Now that we better understand the kitchen, it's time to think about how best to light it. There are two main ways to do so - task and decorative lighting.
Task lighting
This highlights key working areas, offering clear visibility for important kitchen jobs like cooking and cleaning. Vital around much-used areas like near your cooker or sink, task lighting ensures that you stay safe and can easily see everything that you need to.
Ambient lighting
In contrast, ambient lighting is about creating a mood through use of lighting. This might be private and romantic for intimate dinners or soft and subtle for easy unwinding. It's not about function but feeling. Ambient lights, also known as decorative lights, can also add to the look of the room, making more of a design statement through both the light fitting itself and the illumination it provides.
Task and ambient lighting
The good news is that you don't have to choose one or the other. Both are possible and work brilliantly together; creating different zones in the kitchen through different types of lighting. Why not use task lighting to offer directional light in working areas and then ambient with a dimmer switch in the dining space? One space, two functions all through clever use of lighting.
Lastly, are there any areas in the kitchen to highlight? Think about what you'd like people to notice first in your kitchen. Is it the period features of an older property? Overlooked nooks and crannies, the kids' artwork or much-loved furniture? Lighting is a fantastic way to direct the eye to these treasures and more.
Types of kitchen lighting
We've established that there are two ways to light your kitchen - task and ambient lighting. Now we explore how to achieve these through different types of kitchen lights.
Task lighting options include recessed downlights, counter and cabinet lighting, tube lighting and spotlights. Ambient lighting options include pendants and plinth lights.
Recessed downlights
Set in the ceiling, recessed downlights lie flush against the surface. They're perfect for contemporary kitchens as they offer a clean, minimalistic look, blending in effortlessly in an unobtrusive way. Choose between fixed (flat) or adjustable ones that let you tilt the bulb. This directs the light, which may reduce how many you'll need.
When shopping for downlights, check their fire rating. As a hole is cut into the ceiling to fit a downlight, the ceiling's fire integrity is compromised. To restore this, fire-rated downlights are designed to seal off the hole and work to delay the spread of fire. This slowing of the fire is measured in units of time – the longer the period, the more time to safely evacuate.
Our range of recessed downlights includes metallic-effect styles, such as chrome and on-trend brushed nickel, or classic white. Pick up as singles or in multipacks to get the exact number you need.
Install as many, or as few, as you fancy. They're straightforward to fit – and when the bulb goes, simply replace the bulb, not the entire casing using a bulb remover. If you're looking to add a number, it can become quite a big job and so is best suited as part of a larger kitchen project. Seek help from a qualified electrician on how many to install and for fitting them in place.
Kitchen counter & cabinet lighting
Lighting isn't just for your ceiling – illuminate your busy worktops with counter and cabinet lighting. Neatly tucked under kitchen wall cabinets or wall shelves, they direct light just where you need it most for food preparation and other worktop tasks. When the food's been served, enjoy as a more decorative feature that highlights the angles of your cabinetry. And if you have glazed cabinet doors, why not explore models that can be fitted inside your kitchen cabinets? These can add focus to pretty displays of crockery and knick-knacks and make fast work of finding items.
Choose between small, individual counter and cabinet lights and strip lighting – or combine the two. Lighting strips can be added to any area you want, such as over worktops or added to alcoves. And they don't need to have switches, we offer options including battery-operated, plug-in and even Smart Home for remote access from your smartphone. We love ones with colour-changing technology for dinner party drama.
Tube lighting
Light up the entire kitchen with tube lighting. Also known as batten lights, these are less about style and more about performance. Popular in kitchens, they're also well suited to utility rooms, lofts and garages as their long tubes evenly distribute light throughout the space thanks to their built-in diffusers.
We offer single or twin batten lights and two light technologies - fluorescent bulbs (Compact Fluorescent Lamps, CFL – often referred to as energy-saving bulbs) and LED. LED (Light Emitting Diode) bulbs are the most cost and energy-efficient option, immediately reaching full brightness and safe for the environment.
Decorative as well as functional, spotlights are one of the most versatile lights you can choose for your kitchen. Bar spotlights feature lights in a long series, whereas plate designs group the lights more closely together in a compact shape. With a number of lights to illuminate your kitchen, each bulb can be directed to focus the light just where you want it.
With only one light fitting, spotlights are easier and quicker to install than downlighting. And in many instances, it can be as simple as swapping your old light for a spotlight using the same fitting. This makes them a great way to update your lighting scheme and keep up with interior trends.
Sleek bar designs work brilliantly in galley kitchens and our range of stylish metallic finishes complement the industrial kitchen look. Look for unusual and unexpected shapes, such as bar spirals, and a pop of vibrant colour for a retro, diner vibe. And for larger spaces, create coordinated zones with multi and single spotlights.
Pendant lighting
Make a style statement in your kitchen with a pendant light. Suspend over a table, breakfast bar or island to draw focus and create a zone; or simply hang in the centre of the ceiling for the entire room to enjoy. Opt for one showstopper or a number in a line or grouped cluster. Hang high for a wider beam or low for a more private, intimate atmosphere thanks to 'rise-and-fall' pendants - there are plenty of creative options.
Our styles range from decadent multi-lamp chandeliers to hand-blown glass lamps, traditional domes to wire cages; detailed beading to sleek metallics. Explore and find the right pendant to add the finishing touch to your kitchen.
Plinth lighting
Kitchen plinths are the boards between base kitchen units and the floor, offering a continuous, uninterrupted look to the kitchen. Very common, but easily overlooked, why not take yours from standard to super with plinth lighting? These small LED lights come in multipacks to be added to your plinth and are mains-powered. They make a feature of your floor – great with high gloss flooring - and can almost make kitchen islands look like they're floating.
IP rating
When shopping for a kitchen light, it can help to consider its IP rating.
IP (Ingress Protection) ratings measure the effectiveness of an electrical item to seal against solid and liquid objects. This scale is especially important when applied to lighting in rooms that are prone to moisture - such as kitchens, bathrooms and wet rooms. All the cooking and cleaning of busy kitchens demands water-resistant lighting and so be sure to check your chosen light's IP rating before buying.
Also known as the IP code or International Protection Marking, the IP rating is comprised of the initials IP followed by two numbers. The first number measures the protection rating against solid objects, while the more important second number indicates water-resistance. The higher the number, the more protection offered.
Here's a breakdown of the scale for each of the second digit ratings.
|Protected against
|No protection
|Dripping water
|Dripping water when tilted at 15 degrees (°)
|Spraying water
|Splashing water
|Water jets
|Powerful water jets
|Immersion, up to a depth of 1metre (m)
|Immersion, beyond 1m
Essentials & other ideas
Once you've chosen your lighting scheme, you may need a few final touches to complete your kitchen project.
Light switches
Pick up a light switch to complement your new lighting for a stylish and coordinated look. Consider:
- the number of switches (you might have two or three-way switching that enables you to control one light from different locations)
- the type of switch - single, double, triple or even quadruple
- whether the light's dimmable and so requires a dimmer switch
For help on fitting your new light switch, check out our helpful guide before you begin.

Shop light switches Shop dimmer switches
Light bulbs
Depending on your choice of light fitting, you might have to pick up a separate light bulb. And even with ones supplied, you may want to choose your own to create the exact lighting mood you're looking for. Experiment with brightness (the number of lumens) or the colour temperature (for instance, warm versus cool). It might be that you opt for different lighting states in different kitchen zones, such as warm and inviting in a dining area and sharp and energised in the cooking area.
For more information on light bulbs – from cap fittings to shapes, LED to lumens - head to our helpful guide.
Cabinet & starter switches
Cabinet switches - Fit a cabinet switch for instant illumination on opening your kitchen cabinet doors. Automatically triggered on door opening, they're available in black or white to help blend into your kitchen.
Starter switches - If you're buying a fluorescent tube light, consider picking up a starter switch. This small box is installed inside the light fitting and, as the name suggests, helps the light come on promptly and minimises unwanted flickering.
With your lighting scheme decided on, we've one more idea to bring extra light into your busy kitchen.
Cooker hoods with integrated lighting
In addition to your kitchen's lighting scheme, add more illumination thanks to a cooker hood. An increasingly popular way to introduce more task lighting into your cooking space, they commonly feature integrated lighting across all styles including chimney, island, ceiling, downdraft and telescopic. Offered with either halogen or LED lighting, we love LED for its enduring, energy-efficient illumination. Look for models that feature a dimmer function allowing you to choose the required level of lighting.

I work as a consultant in the autonomous vehicle industry and I'm very interested in what's going to happen when Uber, Lyft and their competitors in America and abroad start using cost effective autonomous vehicles. For a quick overview of these ideas and how this phenomenon will end up electrifying America's automobile fleet, see my introductory post. Electric cars, like solar power, have been a "feel good" technology that for decades couldn't compete with the more common and environmentally destructive fossil fuel alternatives without the aid of subsidies. That's all going to end. The big winners in this disruption are going to be electric vehicle manufacturers because the reality is that 95% of the trips people take in cars can be handled by electric vehicles equipped with current battery technology and the three main drawbacks of electric vehicles (initial purchase cost, range and recharging time) will all be negated by The Mobility Cloud. The moderately higher purchase cost of an electric vehicle will be become inconsequential because in this usage model, now the vehicle's purchase price is being... READ ARTICLE
