Disney factory faces probe into sweatshop suicide claims
Human rights campaigners say Chinese factories using children as young as 14 and that workers forced to do overtime
Gethin Chamberlain
Saturday 27 August 2011
Disney's best-selling Cars toys are being made in a factory in China that uses child labour and forces staff to do three times the amount of overtime allowed by law, according to an investigation.
One worker reportedly killed herself after being repeatedly shouted at by bosses. Others cited worries over poisonous chemicals. Disney has now launched its own investigation.
It is claimed some of the 6,000 employees have to work an extra 120 hours every month to meet demand from western shops for the latest toys.
The factory, called Sturdy Products, makes toys for the giant Mattel company, which last month announced quarterly profits of £48m on the back of strong sales of Barbie dolls and Cars 2 toys. Sturdy Products, in the city of Shenzhen, also makes toys for US superstore chain Walmart. Among the brands produced are the Thomas the Tank Engine range, Matchbox cars, Cars, Toy Story, Barbie and Fisher Price products, Scrabble and the Hot Wheels sets.
The undercover investigation was carried out with the help of human rights group Sacom (Students and Scholars Against Corporate Misbehaviour), which helped to expose abuses in Apple's Foxconn plant in China this year.
Workers were interviewed away from the factory, and an investigator then spent a month working inside it to gather more information. He found evidence of the use of child labour and illegal working hours, along with concerns over the use of poisonous chemicals.
Sacom's accusations against the factory include:
■ The employment of a 14-year-old. Staff also reported the presence of other child workers, according to the investigator.
■ Routine excessive overtime. Employees produced a "voluntary" document they said they had to sign agreeing to work beyond the maximum overtime legal limit of 36 hours a month, along with wage slips that suggested they were averaging 120 hours of overtime a month.
■ A harsh working environment in which workers complained of mistreatment by management. One worker injured on the production line was shouted at and ordered back to work despite needing medical treatment.
■ Concerns about the chemicals in use and poor ventilation. Employees claimed three workers had fallen ill. They said they had to hide pots of adhesive and thinners during audits of the factory by its client companies.
■ They also claimed that they were paid by the factory to give misleading answers during audits and that they were fined for failing to hit targets. The calculation of wages for different workers was described by Sacom as arbitrary.
Concerns were raised about conditions at Sturdy Products when a 45-year-old female employee, Hu Nianzhen, jumped to her death from a factory building in May after she was allegedly shouted at by managers.
Colleagues subsequently described the environment in the factory as tense and complained about the demanding workload. "A female worker committed suicide," one said, "because she was always scolded. However, I feel helpless because it is not easy for me to find another job."
The allegations are sure to concern many parents whose children are pestering them to buy the extensive range of Cars 2 toys launched to coincide with the movie, which hit UK cinema screens in July. Cars 2 has so far grossed £303m worldwide, overtaking the original movie despite being panned by critics. The poor reviews have not hindered sales of the merchandise, which Disney expects to exceed the £1.7bn spent last year on Toy Story 3 merchandise. Cars 2 toys will compete with Transformers and Smurfs items as the must-have Christmas toys.
But Sacom said that parents should think twice before buying the toys. A spokeswoman said: "Mattel, Walmart and Disney, the renowned toy companies, always claim they strictly comply with local laws and adhere to their respective code of conduct. The rampant violations at Sturdy Products, including excessive overtime, arbitrary wages, unfair punitive fines, child labour and negligence of occupational health, prove that the pledges are empty statements. There is no effective enforcement mechanism and remedies for workers at all."
She said the violations exposed the failings of the International Council of Toy Industries, which is supposed to police the industry.
"Consumers could never expect that the lovely toys which bring joy to children are manufactured in such deplorable conditions. They should convey messages to toy companies including Mattel, Walmart and Disney to launch remedial actions to compensate the wronged workers. Without remedies, there is no cost for labour rights violations."
She said the companies should already have been aware of the dangers of dealing with Sturdy Products after a previous investigation in 2007 uncovered similar problems. That investigation also found a six-day working week, with staff working up to 288 hours a month. During peak periods there was a compulsory seven-day week and the company was found to be failing to pay the minimum wage. Investigators said that some employees had attempted to raise awareness of the abuses by setting up their own group to inspire colleagues to fight for their rights.
Sturdy Products' parent company, Winson, failed to respond to requests to discuss the allegations.
Walmart issued a statement in which it said: "As soon as we learned of the allegations of human rights abuses at the Sturdy Products factory, we immediately launched an investigation. We are also in contact with the International Council of Toy Industries, a worldwide toy industry organisation that is also investigating this issue. We take reports like this very seriously and we will implement a corrective action plan if our investigations confirm any of the findings.
"We remain committed to sourcing merchandise that is produced responsibly by suppliers that adhere to Walmart's rigorous Standards for Suppliers code of conduct."
Disney said: "We take these matters impacting our licensees and business partners very seriously and will continue to evaluate this situation based upon the information available to us."
Mattel declined to comment directly on any of the allegations other than to note that the company was "deeply saddened" by the suicide but that, while it was "very tragic", it was an isolated event and local authorities had found nothing suspicious about the circumstances.
The company said it had carried out a detailed investigation. It said it was committed to working collaboratively through the International Council of Toy Industries' Care (Caring, Awareness, Responsible, Ethical) process "to achieve continuous improvements in factory working conditions".
Sacom's findings brought a rebuke from the International Council of Toy Industries' Care Foundation. "We are the first to concede that much more work lies ahead of us, but we refuse to accept the sensationalist, media-oriented declarations of any group, especially when they are carping and filled with incorrect information. It is simply counter-productive," the foundation said.
"The plain truth is that workers in many toy factories in China are better off now than they were before and that this is due in considerable part to the ICTI Care Process."
Re: Disney to investigate sweatshop charges in China?
Charles, if I recall, during the Animation Wars a few years ago when Michael Eisner was asked by Disney shareholders about sweatshop and child labor in China, Eisner responded, "We can't do anything about it." if I can recall the quote correctly.
Mind you, we're talking the so called "Happiest Place On Earth" and if this story is true, then it's up to Disney and all of us shareholders to stand up and say no to these practices even if it means no toys.
Re: Disney to investigate sweatshop charges in China?
I recall Eisner said something along those lines.
But... Disney could take action about their pirated properties in China, right?
In fact, that's how Bob Iger, the current head of the Disney Corporation, ingratiated himself with Eisner. By going to China and hunting down the people who were selling Disney CDs and DVDs without Disney's permission.
It's too much trouble to make sure that the places that manufacture their toys observe at least China's labor laws, as questionable as they are.
This is a symptom of a broader condition. The disease of corporatism.
Bob Iger, the guy hunting down Disney's pirated movies in China, is today the highest compensated executive in America and maybe even the western world, who knows.
Mattel has been turning a blind eye to this as well.
There's an easy way for folks who care to fight back.
Don't buy Disney toys produced in China, don't but Mattel toys produced in China.
Maybe things will slow down enough to give some of those workers a little time off.
Spread the word about this please and help create a broader awareness.
Re: Disney to investigate sweatshop charges in China?
Yes, it's a double-edged sword.
Those folks in Asia would be starving if it wasn't for the cheap manufacturing market. That's the excuse the governments make for looking the other way.
Mind you, China has always been its own worse enemy.
Believe it or not, it was the Chinese government that killed more of its citizens than any invader ever did and it happened in our lifetime!
Back in the late 50's and early 60's over 30 million Chinese starved to death or killed each other because of famine created BY the government.
Yes, just look it up regarding the Great Famine. Some morons over there felt it was a good idea to not only murder the intellectuals or the 'smart' people and then move the farmers or the 'people who know how to grow food' to the factories to make steel. At some point Mao and his henchmen didn't realize you needed farmers when you have a population of over 600 million like they had then. 30+ million died, stories of rampant cannibalism and murder too. Mainland China was never a military threat and the U.S. could have wiped them out in a matter of six months on the outside.
So China has a major problem coming up, their citizens want more pay to live the good life and it's forcing companies to want to come back to the U.S. to hire people. Communist leaders know they can't hold back an uprising like you see in the Middle East so they're walking on eggshells. I suspect what's going to happen, and yes I've got good sources on this, is that the people of China might file lawsuits against Disney for child labor violations and worse. With 50 million lawsuits about to hit, yes there's lawyers that would love that, could Disney shareholders withstand the storm?
Re: Disney to investigate sweatshop charges in China?
That's correct Greg. It was called the Great Leap Forward, which preceded the Cultural Revolution of the mid to late 1960s.
Some estimates place the number at 35 million deaths. To put the enormity of that into perspective, that's the population of California.
Under pressure by Mao and the communists to be industrially competitive with the US, the Chinese people were encouraged to make steel. What was produced was of poor quality, since most of it was being made by farmers in homemade kilns. At the same time, in order to impress the local communist party officials, they wildly exaggerated projections and reports on the productivity of their agricultural collectives, and by 1963 there was widespread famine throughout the land.
An attempt to head into a more western style decentralized free market economy was stymied by the Cultural Revolution and by 1966 the young people were thoroughly indoctrinated by Mao's Little Red Book and went on a purge of intellectuals, landlords, religious people including Buddhists and Christians, anyone who wore glasses, all in an attempt for something that nobody really knows what it was all for.
Now China has fully embraced corporatism and has become the production hub of the planet, but the abuse of the people still goes on as is evidenced by this report.
China is perhaps the only empire in the history of the world that never embarked on an expansionist path. In fact, they built a wall around their country to keep people out. When foreigners finally got in that's when things started getting bad. The Opium Wars, the Boxer Rebellion, nationalism, civil war, invasion by Japan, another civil war, the communist victory and now whatever this is.
At least at this point in their history, they pretty much own the USA, and as Chairman Mao predicted, they would sell us the rope to hang ourselves.
Humanity in the workplace, please. They can afford it.
Re: Disney to investigate sweatshop charges in China?
The article that Greg posted is from two days ago on August 27.
I found another article about this very same issue, with reassurances that Disney will be investigating, dating to November 12, 2010.
So what's happened in nearly nine months?
Kids in Chinese sweatshops
Independent | Friday, November 12, 2010
To Western children, Disney is a fairytale world of talking mice, princesses and dragons.
To Chinese children it sometimes means working from 8am to 10pm, handling chemicals without protection, being chastised for failing to hit production targets and eating food laden with cockroaches.
Staff at two factories making Disney toys employed children between the ages of 14 and 16 according to a report by China Labour Watch (CLW).
The children worked 12-hour days in "unacceptable conditions", the 25-page document says.
CLW said it launched the undercover investigation because problems had been found at factories producing Disney-branded goods in the past. Last year, CLW found breaches of working hours, wage and contract laws at a factory in Guangdong producing Disney gifts after a 17-year-old worker, Liu Pan, was crushed to death in machinery.
In a report, CLW claimed the factory was hiring workers as young as 13.
CLW randomly selected two plants making Disney-branded merchandise, sent in undercover investigators and interviewed staff.
According to the report, working hours were excessively long: two four-hour stints daily between Monday and Saturday were typically followed by another four hours of compulsory overtime in the evenings, adding up to 76 hours a week. The children sometimes worked seven days in a row.
Workers were supplied with gloves for handling hazardous chemicals but allegedly did not wear them because it made their work rate too slow. As a result, some of them had developed skin rashes, while for some layers of skin were "falling off".
Staff complained they found it difficult to resign, and could only do so at set times, leaving with less pay than they were owed. There were "harsh and unreasonable" discipline practices, and dormitories - housing typically 12 workers each - were said to be dirty and smelly.
Daily food at one of the factories consisted of two vegetable dishes and one meat meal. The report said: "In all of the meat dishes, one can only see two small pieces of meat or fish. Regardless of what kind of food or oil it is cooked in, workers often detect food additives, hair or cockroaches."
Although members of staff were allowed to join a trade union, they were not aware it existed and were not members. There was no safety training, no fire drills and "fire hazards existed", the report said. After deductions for accommodation, meals and drinking water, one factory paid 1100 yuan ($210 a month).
CLW said: "The investigations showed the old problems with Disney remain: child labourers are still hired in factories, and labour conditions are still unacceptable."
A Disney spokeswoman said: "Clearly the conditions outlined in this report are a breach of our labour standards and are unacceptable. We have started to investigate."
"For the most part we don't have direct relationships with the factories. The factories undertake multiple relationships with our licensees. We work very hard to ensure that factories are monitored on a regular basis."
Asked if Disney was doing enough, she said: "We have a long-standing commitment to the safety and well-being of our workers.
"To imply that we do not address that is untrue."

Boy, the latest news must be a real surprise to corporate Disney and Mattel.
Good thing they decided to investigate.
Mattel's real toy story: slave labour in sweatshops
By ERIC CLARK
16 August 2007
This week Mattel recalled nearly two million Chinese-made toys over concerns they contain excessive levels of lead paint and loose parts.
Dirt-cheap labour and a massive expansion in capacity means China makes more than three-quarters of the world's toys, with an export value in excess of £7 billion.
But increasingly, there is evidence of inadequate safety standards, poor quality control and slave labour.
Here, in an extract from his book about the toy industry, ERIC CLARK reveals the real cost of cheap toys from China.

Re: Disney to investigate sweatshop charges in China?
This is amazing.
So Disney says it will investigate? Must be a real surprise to them the sweatshops in China making their products. Check out this photo. It's from a demonstration against Disney sweatshops in China.
This is from an article published six years ago this month in August, 2005.
They were investigating back then.
Outrage over Disney-run Chinese sweat shops
August 19 2005
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Walt Disney Co said it will investigate claims by a labor rights advocacy group of unsafe conditions at Chinese factories that make books for Disney.
The National Labor Committee said the factories forced employees to work 10- to 13-hour work days and paid them below the legal minimum wage.
Disney said in a statement it had contacted Verite, a non-profit social auditing and training firm, to conduct an investigation of the claims.
In New York, the National Labor Committee released a videotape of people with faces obscured to hide their identities who said they were workers at the Hung Hing printing factory in Shenzhen province and faced dangerous conditions.
The footage was provided to the Committee by a Hong Kong human rights group called Students and Scholars Against Corporate Misbehavior.
The group of university students and academics interviewed 120 workers in four factories in China's southern province of Guangdong between May and August this year and found that they were forced to work a minimum of 12 hours a day.
If they refused to work overtime, their pay would be withheld or deducted, the study found. In return, the workers were paid 2.70 yuan (33 U.S. cents) an hour, well below the minimum wage of 3.33 yuan per hour required by law in the districts where they worked.
"At one printing factory producing Disney books, there are four to five accidents a week. People have lost their fingers and palms," said Billy Hung, coordinator of the group.
"But instead of doing something about the machines, the factory just hires new workers," Hung told Reuters in a telephone interview on Friday. "And the accidents simply continue."
National Labor Committee Director Charles Kernaghan said Disney should make public the names of the factories that make its consumer goods and its process for ensuring safe and fair labor conditions.
"Disney has its own code of conduct but these manufacturers may not be telling the truth," Hung said.
"These practices must stop, especially the industrial accidents."
Disney said in a statement that it takes the Labor Committee's claims "very seriously" and that it conducts regular audits of the factories that produce Disney-branded merchandise.
The company said it will work closely with Verite and "take the appropriate actions to remediate violations found."
Disney spokesmen in Hong Kong were not immediately available for comment.
Disney will throw open the doors of its new theme park in Hong Kong on Sept. 12, but in the months leading up to the event the company has been dogged by negative publicity.
Its insistence on serving sharks' fin soup at restaurants at the park riled conservationists and the company was finally forced to back down.
The public was also dismayed when it learned that more than 40 stray dogs at the park were rounded up and put down.
Re: Disney to investigate sweatshop charges in China?
This article goes back to November 26, 2004...
Christmas Joy Based on Worker Suffering
Mattel makes toys in sweatshop conditions in China, Indonesia, and Mexico. Charlie Kernaghan wants to end sweatshops.
Children will again this Christmas gleefully open gifts and whoop with joy at the toys they receive. Parents and grandparents and other gift givers would have shopped for these toys and tried to find the lowest possible price. But few will stop to think about where the toys come from and why prices are low.
The facts are that the toys come from China and other places where wages are extremely low, where workers have no choices but to work for long hours day in and day out, making maybe 20 cents an hour. Christmas joy in this country is based on worker suffering in others.
For those of us who want to face the facts Abigail Goodman has written a story in the Los Angeles Times called Sweat, Fear and Resignation Amid All the Toys. The article features the Mattel company which is called "one of the best" which has established an independent system for monitoring and publicizing how factory workers are treated. But despite this system conditions are horrible for most of these workers as discovered in interviews by the newspaper.
Re: Disney to investigate sweatshop charges in China?
As a child I would hear the old folks tell me of the infamous Triangle Fire in New York. Over 100 people, mostly women and girls died when a sweatshop caught fire. That story stuck with me and haunted me.
Then in the early '90's my friend Mark who is an expert on Thai culture told me about the working conditions in Thailand and throughout Asia. He was with me while I had created a new comic book series called "The Monster Posse". The series had been picked up for publishing and film development and the toy licensing campaign had started up. One of the licensing companies was producing in Thailand and I asked about the workers conditions there. They didn't comply and yes, I, Greg Boone turned them down. It would have been a possible multi-multi million dollar project but I was not about to take part in that nonsense.
Eight friggin' days later the factory caught on fire and became the biggest industrial fire in human history. The big companies like Disney and Mattel didn't listen to me when I asked about the factory beforehand. However some pals at the Gannett News Service and CBS did but it was too late. You can see part of the Kader Factory Fire in the video above.
In two years it will be the 20th anniversary of that fire. Not to forget the sweatshops owned in S. America by U.S. corporations that use horrid conditions as well.
If the same is true in China, it's not a matter of if a disaster is going to occur, it's a matter of when and we all need to act now before it's too late.

I dont know what your personal condition is, but most americans dont know how good they have it. you think they have it better in portugal, ireland, italy, greece, spain? What about china, you think living conditions are better over there?
Most of the western world is recovering from a major financial mess. The economic problems we are facing here has nothing to do with "other countries walking over us."
i can get into the technicals but this is not the place for that. Just dont be so quick to judge Miller for outsourcing or foreigners for problems here at home. I will leave it at that.

America has been taking it in the tail since the day Bill Clinton signed NAFTA in 1992 and it's been down hill for this country since. People like you Sir that swallow the BS you are fed and told it's steak and good for you are why these criminals in office continue to drive this country into the ground. You believe every lie you're told and you think this country was built on acts of kindness instead of the backs and blood of soldiers. You bask in the freedom they died to supply and curse the way they provided it.. If you want to have the same living conditions as all those places you named just keep kissing their tail and I promise you it will happen. 3 generations living under the same roof and poverty like you never dreamed is EXACTLY where America is headed thanks to these people you support... As for Miller or any other company that outsources jobs to 3rd world nations if they build them there they need to live there and sell them there. Don't keep your corporate op here so all your CEO's can live here while your work force are slave labor. Step it up or step off
As for me and my personal conditions..... This isn't about me or my personal conditions where did you get that BS? This is about this country and the downward direction it's headed in and being smart enough to understand what's fueling it verses someone like you that has no answers when ask to support your position.

First of all, calm down. this is just a discussion. Second, this is a welding forum not a political forum which is why i am hesitant to even reply.
Study the subprime lending market. Also study derivatives (Regulated and unregulated), Credit Default Swaps (CDS) in particular and how that ties into the housing market which crashed. This game is global Gunner. It's major economies, major heavy duty companies which are global getting tied together. It is like a domino, when one fails it can take out everything with it. Remember in 08 when everyone was complaining about the bail out and the slogan "too big to fail"? why do you think the government nationalized the biggest banks? Why did the ECB (european central bank) bail out the Euro?
As far as obama goes, i actually didn't vote for him at all. (in 08 or in 12) But Obama had nothing to do with this crash. If you want to blame someone blame Greenspan, Sommer, Geithner etc.
Miller is doing what every major company is doing to cut cost and maintain quality. You know apple computers are built in china? And i will say it again, nobody is screwing the US. We are by far the dominant force in this world and it is the US controlling the shots globally.
To other members of this thread i apologize for going off topic. Gunner if you want PM me to continue this debate.

Unfortunetly something like 60% of the parts for the big 3 automakers in the US are made overseas...What's today's definition of "Made in the USA"?
FTC Guidelines for "Made in the USA"
According to the Federal Trade Commission, in order for a product to qualify as "Made in the USA" it must,
"be "all or virtually all" made in the U.S. The term "United States," as referred to in the Enforcement Policy Statement, includes the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. territories and possessions. What does "all or virtually all" mean?
"All or virtually all" means that all significant parts and processing that go into the product must be of U.S. origin. That is, the product should contain no or negligible foreign content."

Im thinking about developing a small python plugin for qgis which would access postgis raster database and return data via ST_AsPNG() for example. But since i need this in my wms, would it be possible for mapserver executable to also use this plugin, because the plugin would be used in the project file to fetch the data?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Geographic Information Systems Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for cartographers, geographers and GIS professionals. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Not sure if I understand the question, anyway the next qgis release will support macros (python) in projects, so probably this would help do what you need.

It is a privilege to take care of patients with breast cancer. Each patient is different, each breast cancer is different and treatment recommendations are tailored to the individual patient. At the Weill Cornell Breast Center, we work as a team to recommend the optimal treatment plan for each patient. We meet with our pathologists, surgeons and plastic surgeons, diagnostic radiologists, radiation oncologists, and geneticists through our tumor board and conferences to consider every aspect of the case. The medical oncology group of doctors, nurses, pharmacist, and nutritionist interact on a daily basis to ensure the best plan of care. We have begun a new initiative, a "survivorship" program to study and support our patients throughout their lifetime after a breast cancer diagnosis. It is exciting to be in the forefront of breast cancer research not only with our own group at the Breast Center but also as part of the exciting research going on across the nation. Every year brings advances in this field. I am very happy to be part of it!

One evening in 2000, during the seventh month of her first pregnancy, while trying to read a recipe for sausage and peppers, Mary Catherine Santa lost her eyesight.
Mary Catherine's temporary loss of vision was startling, but it was not the first indication of a troubled pregnancy. The Santas were braced for problems—and so was Dr. Cuteri, because when a woman has her first pregnancy at age 35 or older, the deck is somewhat stacked against her. Mary Catherine was at increased risk of miscarriage or having a baby with birth defects. In fact, early tests had already told Dr. Cuteri that he needed to watch her for signs of
—a condition involving high blood pressure and other symptoms that can include swelling (edema) of the hands and feet, sudden weight gain (a pound a day or more), blurred vision, severe headaches, and dizziness. Dr. Cuteri specifically chose Bridgeport Hospital as the place where he wanted to deliver Mary Catherine's child, because he knew she would need the special perinatal expertise available in The Birthplace.
In The Birthplace that night, prompt treatment lowered Mary Catherine's blood pressure enough so that her sight returned—to her great relief. But she stayed on in The Birthplace for a week while doctors and nurses prepared her and her baby for an early
delivery. "We can minimize the risk of problems by delivering the baby as soon as possible," explains Dr. Cuteri.
Mary Catherine was given medication to prevent seizures, special steroids designed to strengthen her baby's lungs, and frequent ultrasounds to monitor the baby's development. When the baby reached 32 weeks, and Mary Catherine's preeclampsia was still severe, Dr. Cuteri performed the cesarean for the safety of both mother and baby.
Baby Claire spent two weeks in Bridgeport Hospital's Level III (highest level) Newborn Intensive Care Unit, under the expert care of doctors and nurses trained to interpret each little breath and movement, making sure she received the support she needed to thrive.
That was five years ago. Claire, born at 3 lb. 6 oz., is now a bright and beautiful pre-kindergartner.
Mary Catherine's second pregnancy, sadly, did not have a happy ending. She lost that baby at an early stage. But in seeking reasons for the miscarriage, Dr. Cuteri sent the Santas to Gary Kleinman, MD, Director of Perinatal Genetics at Bridgeport Hospital. (Peri=around, natal=birth; a perinatologist specializes in highrisk pregnancies and births.) The tests Dr. Kleinman conducted showed that Mary Catherine had a genetic disorder: prothrombin gene mutation. This is a disorder that makes the blood more likely to clot. (A family medical history revealed that Mary Catherine's grandmother also carried the gene; she too had lost a child to pre-eclampsia.)
Blood clots can mean trouble to anyone at any time, because the clots can become lodged in veins or arteries, blocking blood flow and causing a stroke or heart attack. But during pregnancy, when the clotting factors in a woman's blood volume increase significantly, clotting becomes an even stickier problem. Clotting abnormalities might lead to pre-eclampsia (explaining Mary Catherine's difficult first pregnancy).
And, as happened to Mary Catherine, pre-eclampsia can lead to miscarriage.
For her third pregnancy, when she was 37 years old, Mary Catherine was forewarned. "Dr. Cuteri and Dr. Kleinman explained everything early and clearly, so I understood what was happening and what I had to do to control this pregnancy from my end," says Mary Catherine.
To combat clotting and keep her blood pressure down, she gave herself regular shots of blood thinning medication throughout her pregnancy. She had frequent ultrasounds in the Antenatal Testing Unit of The Birthplace to monitor the growth of the baby. Everything went well, and Cate, now three years old, was delivered at a ripe old nine months of pregnancy, weighing 6 lb., 11 oz.
"I thought I was through with my problems then," says Mary Catherine—but no.
In 2005, Mary Catherine, age 40, was delighted to learn that she was pregnant again. But even though her last pregnancy had gone well, and even though she was again giving herself shots of blood thinners, at 18 weeks, tests showed she was once more starting to develop high blood pressure, which later became pre-eclampsia. It was happening again.
"Everyone was so caring and supportive," Mary Catherine says. She particularly remembers one evening: "Dr. Kleinman had been doing woodwork at home when he cut his head. He came to Bridgeport Hospital for emergency care, and learned that I was in the Antenatal Testing Unit for another ultrasound." So, pulling scrubs over his jeans and tee shirt, and "with a bandage on my bald head," as Dr. Kleinman describes it, he first performed her ultrasound, and then went back to the Emergency Department for his own treatment.
Once again, Mary Catherine came to The Birthplace for the last week of her pregnancy. On February 22, 2006— six weeks before the due date, Dr. Cuteri delivered Charles Edward Santa, who weighed 4 lbs., 2 oz.
Charlie spent ten days in Bridgeport Hospital's Newborn Intensive Care Unit. Soon, he too was able to go home.
The Santas are grateful to the team of specialists whose expertise helped Mary Catherine through the most difficult times of her life: Dr. Cuteri, Dr. Kleinman and the staff of the Birthplace at Bridgeport Hospital. "They were," says Mary Catherine, "a blessing in our life."

Caveman breaks out (Created May 29, 2013)
Meet Caveman, a vibrant quintet from New York City whose self-released debut album was just a first taste of their take on indie pop. Your ears will be ringing, your mind will be dancing on the band's take on everything from experimental and post rock to the sounds of Africa.
Comprised of Matthew Iwanusa (lead vocals, guitar, drums), Jimmy "Cobra" Carbonetti (guitar), Stefan Marolachaki (drums, vocals), Sam Hopkins (synth, vocals) and Jeff Berrall (bass, vocals), Caveman came together in January 2010 and quickly became a reputable draw. Whether it was the harmonies or guitar lines, the affable personalities or the solid evidence that these guys were much more than a local draw, they quickly landed opening gigs for the likes of The War on Drugs and Built to Spill.
Caveman's full-length debut, "CoCo Beware," arrived in September 2011, with tribal drums keeping beat to what's been called the project's very 'Zen-like' appeal. Recorded in Brooklyn's Rumpus Room, the band's ultimate goal was to give the music a warm, saturated feeling. And the verdict? Critics hailed it as a "mission accomplished" for the music's dreamy, cinematic qualities.
The band followed that freshman project with a second, self-titled record in 2013. And though it was perhaps more subdued, with more reflective melodies, the album ultimately drew comparisons to the Shins, especially for the similarities of Shins vocalist James Mercer and Iwanusa.
Caveman is currently on tour, with dates scheduled everywhere from the Highdive in Champaign, Illinois (June 14) to the Majestic Theatre in Detroit, Michigan (June 26).

In addition to sushi and sashimi, green shiso is added to soups, fried in tempura or dried and sprinkled over rice. The shiso leaf may be viewed by some Americans as decorative garnish, but it is a delicious and costly addition to a sashimi plate (or to a sushi roll: negi-hamachi-shiso, yellowtail with scallions and shiso leaf, is an exquisite combination). In addition to its flavor, shiso is rich in calcium and iron and has anti-inflammatory properties. Along with the leaves, the the flower buds and the seeds collected at the end of the season are sprinkled on salad and rice. The seeds are often added to shichimi, the "seven spices of Japan" a blend that was developed more than 300 years ago in Kyoto.
Soy sauce, a salty sauce made from fermented soybeans. There are all levels of quality, from "supermarket level" to artisan soy sauces. As with any other products, you can taste the difference. The finest soy sauces aren't merely salty: You can taste a winey flavor and the beans themselves. Usukuchi shoyu is "light" soy sauce.
In Japan the sushi bar plays a role similar to the pub in England: a relaxed and informal atmosphere. True aficionados sit at the actual sushi bar on a stool, watching the itamae (sushi chef) prepare the selections.
Sea bass. Also called black sea bass, the fish has a delicate white color with red stripes on the skin. The flavor is delicate as well.

The Major Field Test (MFT) is administered to Associate and Bachelor of Business Administration majors in the final semester of their academic program. Students pursuing an Associate degree must have completed their Business Foundations courses and enroll in BUSN288T (Major Field Test) in the final semester before graduation. For those earning a Bachelor degree and enrolled in Capstone classes, BUSN488T (Major Field Test) is a mandatory co-requisite to the Capstone.
Major Field Testing - ABA and BBA
MFT Schedule
FAQs - Major Field Test (MFT) Questions & Answers
Q: Why has Davenport University made taking the Major Field Test a requirement for graduation?
A: Davenport University and the Maine College of Business (MCB) have engaged in many quality initiatives. The MCB is now accredited by the International Assembly for Collegiate Business Education (IACBE) which requires additional assessment of students. Davenport University was recently accepted into the Higher Learning Commission's Academic Quality Improvement Program (AQIP). AQIP is an alternative accreditation process through which the University can maintain its accredited status.
Q: If I don't take the Major Field Test, will I still be able to graduate?
A: The Major Field Test became a graduation requirement in 2010-2011, so you will not be able to graduate if you have not taken the test.
Q: If I take the Major Field Test and do well, can this be an asset on my resume?
A: Yes, the Major Field Test is administered to students at universities across the nation. If you do well on this test, it is certainly a sign of achievement and something you can add to your resume.
Q: What happens if I do poorly on the exam?
A: At this time your score on the MFT does not have any bearing on whether you graduate. The requirement is for you to take the exam.
Q: Will my score on this test become a part of my academic record?
A: Not at this time. You are currently being required to take this test so that DU can evaluate the effectiveness of the business curriculum.
Q: Who is eligible to take the Major Field Test?
A: Bachelor and Associate of Business majors in the last semester of their academic programs are eligible. For students in Bachelor of Business programs taking Capstone classes, BUSN488T BBA Major Field Test is a co-requisite. Students in Associate of Business programs must have completed their Business Foundations courses and enroll in BUSN288T ABA Major Field Test in their final semester.
Q: How do I sign up to take the Major Field Test?
A: You enroll in either the BUSN288T course (Associates students) or BUSN488T (Bachelors students) course. Each course is tied to a particular campus and a particular testing date and time. See the Year Long Schedule to see what dates and times are available for your campus and degree. For any DU campus based exams, you can register for these courses online, just as you would for any other course, or you can schedule an appointment with your advisor to have them help you enroll in the course. If you need to register for an online exam, you will need to contact your advisor (see Distance Proctoring) .
Q. What if I am an online student living in Michigan?
A: If you are an online student living in Michigan, you can register and complete the test at any campus close to your home regardless of where you have taken classes.
Q. What if I am an online student living out of state?
A: If you are an online student living more than 60 miles from a campus, out of state or outside the United States. You will need to schedule Distance Proctoring.
Q: How do I find someone to proctor an out of state exam? How do I locate a Distance Testing Institution?
A: We generally direct students to the National College Testing Centers Location Page. This, however, is not a perfect search tool as not all centers who are capable of proctoring your exam are part of NCTA. Thus, the internet and your understanding of your community academic institutions is perhaps equally helpful.
Q: Can I retake the exam?
A: No. The test results will be used in aggregate form; we cannot allow students to take the exam more than once. However, if you are an ABA student continuing into a BBA program, you take both the ABA and BBA versions of the test when you have made adequate progress in each degree.
Q: How can I prepare for the exam?
A: Currently, no formal process exists for reviewing and preparing for the test. However, you may review content information and sample questions by visiting the ETS site Business Degree Programs located at http://www.ets.org/mft/about/content/. Here you will find Review material for ABA and Review material for BBA exams.
Q: What is the cost for the Major Field Test?
A: The course fee for both BUSN288T ABA Major Field Test and BUSN488T BBA Major Field Test is $75. This fee will be added to the tuition bill.
Q: What if I have a scheduling conflict?
A: If you have a legitimate and verifiable scheduling conflict, please contact your advisor to discuss your options. If you register for either BUSN288T (ABA) or BUSN488T (BBA) and fail to show up to take the test on the scheduled day and time it is offered, you will receive a grade of "NF" (no credit) for the course, will have to register for the next session, and will have to pay the course fee again.
Q: When can I register for or drop the MFT course (BUSN288T or BUSN488T)?
A: The same add/drop requirements apply to both BUSN288T and BUSN488T as with any other course. For any campus based MFT tests, you can drop and add online but if you need to drop or add an online one, you will need to talk to your advisor.
If you have additional questions regarding the Major Field Test or the BUSN288T or BUSN488T courses, please contact your advisor.

Here's is what I am thinking for our online/virtual doTERRA essential oils party, please let me know what you all think!
We can have the "party" the first week of April. This way, you can each look over some information that I will post in this thread, PM me questions about what may be best for a certain issue, and we can wait for some new product to be released. I noticed that several of you were interested in the Slim & Sassy oil that I take daily. This oil has helped cut back on my desire to eat all of the time and cut me away from sweets completely. I also find that I have more energy! Yesterday at the doTERRA retreat, they announced a new Slim & Sassy soft gel.
I am putting together a list of the oils that I have really come to love, several more that I have used a lot, and some that my good friends have found wonderful as well.
Again, PM me with any questions, and I will point you in the right direction for which oil may be the best. I have a great book that goes into detail about each oil; botanical family, extraction method, common primary uses, common application methods.
There is also this great site; Everything Essential, to refer to for areas on interest (I believe Sharon referred to this as well)
Please keep in mind if you PM me, I am not a heath care professional. I have a love for these oils and I am helping out others the best that I can. I am also a wife and a mother, my family comes first. Please allow up to 48 hours for me to respond (it will usually be a lot sooner).

Grilled Salmon With Pineapple Salsa & Grilled Vegetables
This is a wonderful spring dish, when asparagus are in season—and a very healthy as well. To shave off more calories and fat, substitute plain nonfat Greek yogurt (we like FAGE Total and Chobani) for the sour cream and mayonnaise in the horseradish dip—it will be just as enjoyable.

One ingredient in this product is acetaminophen. Taking too much acetaminophen may cause serious (possibly fatal) liver disease. Adults should not take more than 4000 milligrams (4 grams) of acetaminophen a day. People with liver problems and children should take less acetaminophen. Ask your doctor or pharmacist how much acetaminophen is safe to take.
Do not use with any other drug containing acetaminophen without asking your doctor or pharmacist first. Acetaminophen is in many nonprescription and prescription medications (such as pain/fever drugs or cough-and-cold products). Check the labels on all your medicines to see if they contain acetaminophen, and ask your pharmacist if you are unsure.
Get medical help right away if you take too much acetaminophen (overdose), even if you feel well. Overdose symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, sweating, stomach/abdominal pain, extreme tiredness, yellowing eyes/skin, and dark urine.
Daily alcohol use, especially when combined with acetaminophen, may damage your liver. Avoid alcohol.
Children should not use products that contain dihydrocodeine after certain surgeries (including tonsil/adenoid removal). Also, for children younger than 12 years, do not use dihydrocodeine to treat cough or pain unless specifically directed by the doctor. Some children are more sensitive to dihydrocodeine and have had very serious (rarely fatal) breathing problems such as slow/shallow breathing (see also Side Effects section). Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about the risks and benefits of this medication.Who should not take dihydrocodeine-acetaminophen-caffeine?
See also Warning section.
This medication is used to treat moderate-to-severe pain. It acts on certain centers in the brain to give you pain relief. This medication is a combination of a narcotic pain reliever (dihydrocodeine), a non-aspirin pain reliever/fever reducer (acetaminophen), and caffeine. Caffeine is used to increase pain relief, especially in certain types of headaches.
See also Warning section.
Take this medication by mouth with or without food, usually every 4 hours as needed or as directed by your doctor. If you have nausea, you may take this drug with food, although this may cause your body to absorb less of the drug and get less benefit from it. Consult your doctor or pharmacist about other ways to decrease nausea (e.g., antihistamines, lying down for 1-2 hours with as little head movement as possible).
The dosage is based on your medical condition and response to therapy. If you are taking this drug "as needed" (not on a regular schedule), remember that pain medications work best if they are used as the first signs of pain occur. If you wait until the symptoms have worsened, the medication may not work as well.
This medication may cause withdrawal reactions, especially if it has been used regularly for a long time or in high doses. In such cases, withdrawal symptoms (such as runny nose, watery eyes, anxiety, restlessness, sweating, irritability) may occur if you suddenly stop using this medication. To prevent withdrawal reactions, your doctor may reduce your dose gradually. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more details, and report any withdrawal reactions immediately.
Though very unlikely, abnormal drug-seeking behavior (addiction) is possible with this medication. Do not increase your dose, take it more frequently, or take it for a longer time than prescribed. Properly stop the medication when so directed.
When used for an extended period, this medication may not work as well and may require different dosing. Talk with your doctor if this medication stops working well.
Inform your doctor if your pain persists or worsens.
See also Warning section.
Nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhea, lightheadedness, dizziness, drowsiness, headache, and trouble sleeping may occur. If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor or pharmacist promptly.
To prevent constipation, maintain a diet adequate in fiber, drink plenty of water, and exercise. If you become constipated while using this drug, consult your pharmacist for help in selecting a laxative (e.g., stimulant-type with stool softener).
Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.
Tell your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects, including: mental/mood changes (e.g., irritability, nervousness, depression), rapid heartbeat, severe stomach/abdominal pain, change in the amount of urine.
Get medical help right away if you have any very serious side effects, including: seizures.
Dihydrocodeine is changed into a strong narcotic drug (dihydromorphine) in your body. In some people, this change happens faster and more completely than usual, which increases the risk of very serious side effects. Get medical help right away if you notice any of the following: slow/shallow breathing, unusual drowsiness/difficulty waking up, confusion.
A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, get medical help right away if you notice any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing.
This is not a complete list of possible side effects. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.

Some children may be more sensitive to very serious side effects of the dihydrocodeine in this product, such as extreme sleepiness, confusion, or slow/shallow/noisy breathing. (See also Warning section.)
Older adults may be more sensitive to the side effects of this drug, especially confusion, dizziness, drowsiness, trouble sleeping, and slow/shallow breathing.
Before using this medication, women of childbearing age should talk with their doctor(s) about the risks and benefits. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or if you plan to become pregnant. During pregnancy, this medication should be used only when clearly needed. It may slightly increase the risk of birth defects if used during the first two months of pregnancy. Also, using it for a long time or in high doses near the expected delivery date may harm the unborn baby. To lessen the risk, take the smallest effective dose for the shortest possible time. Tell the doctor right away if you notice any symptoms in your newborn baby such as slow/shallow breathing, irritability, abnormal/persistent crying, vomiting, or diarrhea.
This medication passes into breast milk and may rarely have undesirable effects on a nursing infant. Tell the doctor right away if your infant develops increased sleepiness, trouble breast-feeding, trouble breathing, or unusual limpness. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor before breast-feeding.

Toro Rosso are yet to confirm Daniel Ricciardo and Jean-Eric Vergne for 2013, but the former believes they deserve another season with the team.
The pair are both in their rookie seasons at Faenza after Toro Rosso opted to dump Jaime Alguersuari and Sebastian Buemi at the end of the 2011 season.
Although STR have endured a difficult campaign so far, the Australian and Frenchman have made solid starts to their careers with Vergne picking up 12 points and his team-mate scoring nine.
Most people believe the duo will remain at Faenza next season and Ricciardo is no different.
"No confirmation but not really any doubts either to be honest," he said when asked by ESPN about 2013.
"Nothing's been signed on paper but we've been involved with some brief discussions on next year and what [technical director] James [Key] is hoping to achieve and what the team is looking for. So I guess being involved with these discussions is a positive and to be honest I think we definitely deserve another season.
"I think the team sees that as well, and I think generally most of the time if there's someone to blame they're blaming the package more than us. Sometimes we're like 'You can blame us if you want!' but I think they see that the car hasn't been the strongest this year and they see that with a stronger package we can definitely deliver some strong results."

This question was inspired by this closed one. Please only answer if you have experience of recruiting developers, and stick to broad issues, not Daily WTF style stories.
Basically, what are the main issues that make it hard to find good developers - either making it hard to get people to apply in the first place, or leading to large numbers of applicants being rejected or refusing an offer.
General technical ability, specific technical skills, interpersonal skills, salary demands vs. budget constraints, work too dull, whatever - what are the top development recruitment problems?

Montgomery County Council members say they are keeping the future in mind as they review Montgomery County Public Schools' budget request for next fiscal year.
The council's three-member Education Committee took its first look at the school system's budget at a meeting Monday, reminding school officials that they have to consider what fully approving this year's request will cost the county in future years.
The Montgomery County Board of Education is asking for a $2.23 billion budget for next school year, hoping the council will approve the request although it asks the county to provide $10 million more than it is required under state law.
The state's Maintenance of Effort law requires the county to provide at least the same per-pupil funding level as the year before. The county provided $9,759 per student for 144,869 students this school year, for a total contribution of $1.42 billion.
Under Maintenance of Effort and with pension costs transferring from the state to the county, by fiscal 2017 the county will be required to give the school system a minimum of $100 million more, said Essie McGuire, a senior legislative analyst for the county.
Councilwoman Valerie Ervin (D-Dist. 5) of Takoma Park and Councilman Philip Andrews (D-Dist. 3) of Gaithersburg both pointed out the stress those requirements place on the county, stating that going beyond those requirements would put the county in an even worse position.
County Executive Isiah Leggett (D) has recommended that the school system's budget be fully funded, but that the school system take the $10 million extra funding it is requesting from its fund balance, so that the county does not need to provide more than it is required.
Larry Bowers, the school system's chief operating officer, said that would put the school system in a tight spot, as it is in the pattern of using reserves to fund future year budgets.
The school system already was planning to pull $17 million from its fund balance for next fiscal year; its fund balance is now about $40 million.
Ervin said she will not weigh in on the issue until she hears more from the school system. The council has six worksessions set up in the next month discussing school funding.
Ervin said she was interested in how the budget will help the school system close its achievement gaps; a worksession April 19 will focus on that question.
Montgomery schools Superintendent Joshua P. Starr advocated for full funding Monday, pointing out to County Council members that Leggett has called his school system the "crown jewel" of the county.

Toronto, ON (Sports Network) - Zach Randolph recorded a double-double with 17 points and 18 rebounds, and the Grizzlies shut down their former franchise player in upending the Toronto Raptors, 88-82, at Air Canada Centre.
Rudy Gay, playing in his first game against the Grizzlies since they traded him to Toronto in a three-team swap late last month, shot just 5-of-15 from the floor and finished with 13 points and nine rebounds as the Raptors had their five-game winning streak snapped.
"They double-teamed (Gay) right from the beginning," Raptors head coach Dwane Casey said. "I felt sorry for him because they wouldn't allow him to get going."
Tayshaun Prince, one of the three players the Grizzlies received in the Gay deal, added 11 points, and Mike Conley chipped in 17 points, six rebounds and six assists in the victory.
Tony Allen had 12 points and eight boards for Memphis, which earned a fifth straight win for the first time since November.
Alan Anderson sparked a Toronto comeback in the fourth quarter and scored a game-high 19 points, but the hosts never got over the hump in losing for the first time this season when allowing less than 90 points.
Anderson saw less than nine minutes of action in the first three quarters, then exploded for 15 points in the first 5 1/2 minutes of the fourth. The reserve drained four 3-pointers during the stretch, including one while being fouled by Randolph. The subsequent free throw brought the Raptors within 77-75, and an Amir Johnson layup tied it with 4:09 remaining.
Gay, the Grizzlies' all-time leader in games played, steals and minutes, had a forgettable finish against the only club he had ever played for prior to being dealt.
He missed a potential go-ahead 3-pointer with the score tied, then turned it over the next time down. Three free throws from Randolph over two trips to the foul line gave the Memphis the lead again, and after Allen blocked a driving Gay, Conley fired a dagger from long range for an 85-77 cushion with 1:57 remaining.
Memphis made just enough free throws down the stretch to hold on for the win.
"It was like a playoff game," Grizzlies head coach Lionel Hollins said. "They made it tough in the second half, but we had some outstanding defense down the stretch."
Both teams were playing the second of a back-to-back immediately following the All-Star break, and the tightness showed early on.
The Grizzlies missed their first eight shots and had their inefficiency promptly outdone when the Raptors bricked 10 straight in the opening quarter.
The frame ended with Memphis holding a 19-14 lead, and consecutive 3-pointers by Jerryd Bayless and Tony Wroten early in the second gave the Grizzlies their first double-digit lead, 27-16.
Gay was 0-for-5 from the floor before banking in a 3-pointer to beat the shot clock with 5:14 left in the first half, but the Raptors still trailed, 43-32, at intermission.
"We didn't bring the intensity in the first half," Casey said.
Memphis led the entire third quarter and brought a 66-57 advantage into the fourth.
Randolph has recorded 32 double-doubles this season ... Ed Davis, who went
from Toronto to Memphis as part of the Gay trade, had four points and four
rebounds in 14-plus minutes ... The Raptors were 12-0 when allowing less than
90 points ... Johnson scored 16 points and extended his streak with at least
one block to 15 games ... The Grizzlies have won four in a row in Toronto.

My family loves this recipe! My husband claims this is restaurant-quality shrimp scampi and the best version he's ever had! It's got a lot of flavor but is not overly spicy. I have a 7- and 6-year-old and they both loved it as well.
Not very good and instructions don't allow the alcohol to cook off. Shrimp came out chewy(wasn't precooked) and the sauce was bland.

My wife was sick so I finally got to eat what I like. She doesn't eat seafood so I took advantage. Researching at the last minute I found this recipe. I substituted a lime for the lemon and didn't have wine so I drank a gin martini instead. The spicy shrimp makes it! Even when only marinating for 10 minutes. My kids kept coming back for more. I'll definitely do this recipe again!
Flavorful & delicious!
Like others have said, this is absolutely restaurant quality. We go to shore every year and relish in the fresh seafood there, but this tops dish tops even those restaurants' takes on shrimp scampi. I followed the recipe exactly except at the end I added some chopped fresh tomatoes and fresh basil - took it over the top! This is the second time I've made it and my husband raves about it. This'll be a regular for us in the sweltering summer days that call for lighter fare.
Good recipe, repeat requested. I did change a couple things. I used precooked and deveined shrimp, substituted apple juice for the wine and did not marinate but used the marinade as a sauce and sauteed the shrimp in it. It was very good.Like Family requested I add it to my recipe book which is a big deal in my house.
Love this recipe but added fresh broccoli (lightly steamed) and much more lemon at the end. So tasty!
Easy and delicious recipe! Had a lil spice to it but my 7 year old was still able to eat it and loved it!
