In 2004 two East London based artists, Beverley Samler and Lisa van Wyk, initiated the "Proud Survivors" project centred around arts-focused outreach work with rural and peri-urban communities in the Eastern Cape with a specific emphasis on women. The idea of the project and exhibition was to celebrate these women as survivors of abuse rather than highlighting them as victims and offered participants of the development programme emotional and creative therapy through the process of Art making. The exhibition consists of 5 mixed media works of art created in collaboration between Van Wyk and Samler and 11 collages created from collected handprints by workshop participants. The exhibition featured at the 4th Impact/Kontakt International Printmaking Conference in Berlin in 2005 and in 2006 was donated to the MTN Art Collection. It is still housed at the MTN Innovation Centre in Fairland, Johannesburg. Below is a preview of the entire collection.
Artists: Beverley Samler and Lisa van Wyk
Title: Proud Survivors: Abuse (2004)
Medium: Mixed media
Size: 420 x 596mm
Artists' statement:
This panel represents the abuse that women and children sustain, on a daily basis, in South Africa. A fragmented female figure is bracketed by the closed flowers of the African Coral Tree, which takes the form of spears. The spears symbolize the nature of abuse, which pierce and stab at the vulnerability of the female body. The colours of the handprints portray violence and anger.
Artists: Beverley Samler and Lisa van Wyk
Title: Proud Survivors: Battle against Power I(2004)
Medium: Mixed media
Size: 420 x 596mm
Artists' statement:
Panels 2 and 3 deal with the battle of power within a traditionally patriarchal society. Issues within the family regarding relationships, responsibility and respect form the "Pyramid of Life". The tyres and ropes are indicative of abusive behaviour, which suffocates the human rights of individuals. The beaded tokens bring messages of hope and strength

Title: Proud Survivors: Battle against Power II (2004)
Medium: Mixed media
Size: 420 x 596mm
Artists' statement:

LISA VAN WYKwas born in East London, South Africa. She lived and schooled in the Eastern Cape where she excelled in sport and leadership. She then went on to study at the East London College where she obtained a 3-year diploma in Fine Art. During this time Van Wyk received the Jack Lugg Trophy for best printmaker for two successive years. She then travelled to the United Kingdom on a two-year work visa and travelled broadly. On returning to South Africa at the end of 1997, she decided to complete her Bachelors Degree at the East London College under the auspices of Port Elizabeth Technikon. She graduated successfully, majoring in Printmaking and obtained a distinction for her theory component/dissertation, which was: An inquiry as to the validity of the perception that political statements dominate South African art? Van Wyk moved on to lecturing at the East London College where she ran the printmaking department. During this time she participated in numerous group exhibitions, exchanges and collaborations both locally and nationally. An opportunity arose for her to live and work in Taiwan where she resided for a period of 3 years. In this time she travelled extensively and held her first, two successful, solo exhibitions in a local gallery. She returned back to South Africa with her Canadian life partner and gave birth to their daughter. This was the motivation for Lisa to do the advocacy work around "Proud Survivors." Lisa Van Wyk has art work in many private collections around the world and is currently heads up the Design Department at ELMI, a Private Higher Education Institution in East London and is also the Registrar of Operations at the company. Lisa has a robust opinion about social, political and economic issues that plague the South African context and this is often expressed in her creative work and collaborations with other artists. Her friendship with Beverley Samler is one of those collaborations, where two likeminded individuals joined together to create a stand against Women & Children Abuse.
BEVERLEY SAMLER was born in Zambia and lived most of her life in Zimbabwe. She came to South Africa in 1980 and settled in the Eastern Cape. She started painting again after a long break of 20 years and eventually found her way into the Buffalo City Public FET College's printmaking studio. She studied under Rose Warren for 4 years. Beverley has held two successful solo exhibitions in the Eastern Cape. In addition she has exhibited in numerous group showings locally and in Zimbabwe. The most recent being the 3rd International Printmaking conference held in Cape Town 2003, where she was involved in the production of a community based project and exhibition namely, "Salted Lines." Beverley Samler's passion for printmaking is balanced with other media and it is in this field that the artist views the work to be more experimental and often gender based. She also exhibited at the National Arts Festival in Grahamstown in 2004 and served as board member for the Ann Bryant Art Gallery doing extensive work within her community. Samler has always been motivated to use art to accomplish as much as possible in bringing improvement and education to underprivileged communities; she therefore enlisted the help of Lisa Van Wyk for the "Proud Survivors" project. In 2010 Samler moved to the UK and has since then been involved in two projects with connections to women refugees and produced a video work called "The Refuge Manifesto". She is an ongoing participant in two worldwide exhibitions connected to the bombing of Al Mutanabbi Street in Bagdad, and a collective print exhibition called "Absence and Presence". Currently her studio is set up in Devon, England, where she now has to come to terms with a totally different set of social upsets.

Art for Humanity (AFH) initiated the Break the Silence HIV/Aids print portfolio in 2000, with the purpose to instil a greater sense of social responsibility towards the pandemic and to those who are infected and affected by the disease. The project was designed by AfH director Jan Jordaan in collaboration with Vedant Nanackchand and Dr. Nigel Rollins. 31 artists – 21 South African and 10 international – have contributed original fine art prints to the HIV/AIDS initiative.
Well-known South African artists, including Gabisile Nkosi and Diane Victor, joined international artists Alex Flett (Scotland), Carmen Perrin (Switzerland) and others to contribute to the portfolio collection. The Break the Silence initiative is endorsed by a number of international leaders involved in the field of health, human rights, culture and art, including Dr. Peter Piot, head of UN AIDS.
The artists joined the project because it offered them a unique opportunity to use their talents to advocate these significant messages to the community. Gabisile Nkosi, an artist based in KwaZulu-Natal believes in the African proverb that says: 'If you want to hide something from a black man, write it in black and white.' To convey this message Nkosi said, "It is better to do a colourful visual, rather than to use text. As an artist, I feel privileged to play a role in promoting HIV/Aids awareness through the medium of visual art".
The Break the Silence print portfolio (25 sets) is part of the following permanent collections: Durban Art Gallery, South Africa; UCLA Fowler Museum, Los Angeles, California; United Nations, Geneva, Switzerland; Africa Centre for Health and Population Studies, Matubatuba, South Africa; Department of Arts and Culture, Pretoria, South Africa; Namibia National Art Museum, Windhoek; MTN Art Collection, Johannesburg, South Africa and others. Below is a preview of the entire collection.
Artist: Yusuf Arakkal
Medium: Screenprint
Size: 420 x 592mm
Artist statement: Yusuf Arakkal
Creative human beings are God's gift to this world. Let us all use the power of creativity to save the world from this dreaded calamity, AIDS.
YUSUF ARAKKAL was born in Kerala, India, in 1945. He received his Diploma in Painting from Chitrakala Parishath College of Art, Bangalore, India, in 1973, and then specialised in graphic printmaking at the Indian National Art Academy Community Studios in Garhi, Delhi, in 1980. Since 1975, Arakkal has had over 38 shows of prints, oils and watercolours in Bangalore, Madras, Hyderabad, Trivandrum, Calicut, Cochin, Trichur, Calcutta, Mumbai and New Delhi, all India.
Arakkal currently works from his studio in Bangalore. He has exhibited internationally at the Rotunda Exchange Square in Hong Kong, Japan, and the Bayer – RPG Show in Munich, Germany. Arakkal has received several awards, including the Karnataka Lalit Kala Academy Award for 1979 and 1981. Additionally, he was nominated as the Indian Commissioner for the 19th Sao Paolo International Biennale.
Artist: Giselle Baillie
Title: Ta Ta Ma Chance (2000)
Medium: Mixed media
Size: 420 x 596mm
Artist statement: Giselle Baillie
In this print, I have used a random page of a phonebook with no specific reference to any town or city. Some names are completely erased, creating the scenario of those who might possibly have died as a result of Aids, while others are faded, indicating the possible infection with the HIV/Aids virus. Through both of these areas runs a red line, as if I had to scratch these names out myself, something we might all have to do in each and every one of our phonebooks and our lives should we not break the silence on the destructive effect of HIV/Aids in South Africa.
GISELLE BAILLE was born in Bloemfontein and currently lives and works in Grahamstown, both places are in South Africa. She obtained her Bachelor of Fine Arts (cum laude) in 1994 and her Masters of Fine Arts in 2000 from Rhodes University, Grahamstown, where she majored in printmaking. In 1994, Baille was awarded the Purvis Prize for highest academic achievement as well as the Pullen Scholarship and academic half colours. In 2000, she started her own business, Under Pressure Agency. Baille has been part of many projects, including the Grahamstown Central Arts Forum, and the Artreach Publication. Her recent exhibitions include a solo show at the Art Gallery in Paarl and the Oliewenhuis Printexchange in Bloemfontein, both South Africa. Her works are part of several collections, including the MTN Art Collection, South Africa, and private collections in South Africa, London, UK, and New York, USA.
Artist: Kim Berman
Title: Break the Silence (2000)
Medium: Mixed media
Size: 402 x 596mm
Artist statement: Kim Berman
I have chosen a metaphor of drowning – like the floods that consumed Mozambique and parts of South Africa. Plucking an arbitrary few out of the floodwaters because help came too late is a metaphor for HIV/Aids in South Africa. 'Break' is a word of activism; positive as well as destructive action. It is a word that forces change. Rural women, whose struggles are expressed through their embroideries, are a symbol of the colour, energy and the hope of the African spirit. 'Silence = Death' was the slogan for Aids in the USA in the 1980's and 1990's. 'Break the Silence' is South Africa's path to the future.
KIM BERMAN was born in Johannesburg, South Africa. In 1981, she completed her Bachelor of Fine Arts at the University of Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, and eight years later, she received her Masters of Fine Arts with distinction in Printmaking at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts and Tufts University, both in Boston, Massachusetts. Berman is a senior lecturer and Head of Division Printmaking in the Fine Arts Department of the Witwatersrand Technikon. Berman's exhibitions include Paper Prayers – Aids Awareness Exhibition, Cape Town, South Africa, and solo shows in Bonn, Germany, and at the Goodman Gallery in Johannesburg. Her work is also part of many public and private exhibitions. Berman founded and directs the Artists Proof Studio – a community printmaking centre in Newton, Johannesburg. The project raises funds to subsidise financially disadvantaged artists. Berman received a fellowship to travel to the USA and Belgium in 1999.
Artist: Chris Diedericks
Title: Break the Silence (2000)
Medium: Linocut
Size: 418 x 597mm
Artist statement: Chris Diedericks
Despite the countless loss of life and social prejudice caused by HIV/Aids, large numbers of people are living with this life-threatening disease, while still enjoying their lives with friends, family and lovers. They, the positive other, need the support of a new social mind set, free from prejudice, celebrating differences, a true postmodern sensibility. Art is one of the most powerful mediums, which can address society's fears and (mis)conceptions about HIV/Aids.
CHRIS DIEDERICKS obtained his Bachelor of Fine Arts with distinction from the Potchefstroom University for Christian Higher Education, South Africa, where he is currently doing his Masters of Fine Arts. He has held many lecturing positions, including senior lecturer at the Open Window Art Academy in Pretoria, South Africa. Diedericks has worked in a variety of international workshops and was invited to work at the graphic Atelier Torben Bo Halbrik in Paris, France. Diedericks has exhibited both nationally and internationally, including at the French-African Connection in Pretoria, and at the 2000 International Print Triennal in Kracow, Poland. He has also participated in numerous one-person-shows and is part of several collections, as well as featured in various artists' books and publications. Diedericks has received several sponsorships and grants.
Artist: Nyaniso Christopher Lindi
Title: Bill Of Rights: Children (2000)
Medium: Linocut
Size: 420 x 600mm
Artist statement: Nyaniso Christopher Lindi
Bill of Rights: Children Act 108 of 1996, Chapter 12.
28. (1) every child that the right:
A: To a name and nationality from birth.
B: To family care or parental care, or to appropriate alternative care when removed from family environment.
C: To basic nutrition, shelter, basic health care services and social services.
D: To be protected from maltreatment, neglect, abuse or degradation.

1) Are inappropriate for a person of that child's age.
2) Place at risk the child's well-being, education, physical or mental health or spiritual, moral or social development.
3) A child's best interests are of paramount importance in every matter concerning the child, etc.
NYANISO CHRISTOPHER LINDI lives and works in Grahamstown, South Africa. He obtained his Bachelor of Fine Arts from Rhodes University and is presently assistant printer at Fine Line Press in Grahamstown. He has worked for the Institute of Social and Economic Research at Rhodes University and for the Dakawa Art and Craft Centre, both in Grahamstown. Lindi had two student exhibitions (1993 and 1996) and showed at the Provincial exhibition in the Albany Museum in Grahamstown (1999), at Dakawa as an emerging artist (2000), and was part of the Egazimi project, which travelled to Ireland.
Artist: Gabisile Nkosi
Title: Break the Silence (2000)
Medium: Linocut
Size: 420 x 590mm
Artist statement: Gabisile Nkosi
The artwork focuses on polygamy. Polygamy is common, especially in rural areas. My work discourages this practice and encourages the use of condoms. There is a common saying in the black community: 'If you want to hide something from a black man, then write it in black and white.' This simply implies that people in the black community are generally lazy to read. If you want to get a message across, it's better to do a colourful visual rather than text. Also, one needs to be obvious in one's message instead of abstract. As an artist, I feel privileged to play a role in HIV/Aids awareness through the medium of visual art.
GABISILE NKOSI is a Durban, South Africa-based artist. She has participated in community educational projects and is particularly interested in the therapeutic effects of art making. Nkosi's work has been seen in several group and solo exhibitions, including the 'Biennale – Jabulisa 2000' at the Tatham Art Gallery, Pietermaritzburg, South Africa, 'Warm Wind from South Africa' at the Durham Art Gallery, Durban, and the DLM Museum in XXX, England. She has also received art awards and prices, during and after her studies. Her work is part of the permanent collection of the Durban Art Gallery, South Africa. Nkosi has contributed her talents to a variety of volunteer projects, such as the Peace Oasis project of Durban-based non-profit organisation Art Works Trust.

Advising NotesPlease Read: This major guide is a list of all possible major courses offered in the Virginia Community College System. Not all courses may be offered at your community college, and you are not required to complete all these courses in order to transfer. Rather, it's designed to help you meet JMU major requirements before you transfer, and be better prepared to progress through the major once you arrive at JMU. Please be sure to read the advising notes for additional information on the major.
1. Transfer students who complete courses prior to matriculation at JMU that are the equivalent of PSYC 101 and a 200-level math course (statistics or calculus) are automatically admitted to the major (see above for equivalencies). Students who transfer without one or both of these courses may apply to the major during their first semester at JMU. See the Department of Psychology web site for more information. Please Note: After admission to the psychology major it takes at least 4 semesters to graduate from JMU, so it is strongly recommended that students complete the required introductory psychology and math courses prior to admission to JMU.
2. Because of the sequencing of major courses, students should consider completing, or at least beginning, the PSYC 210-211 sequence in the summer if possible. These courses are the prerequisites to all upper-division area requirements and are typically completed by JMU students during their sophomore year. Students must complete PSY 210 and 211 before they can take any upper-division major courses. Students who have to complete 210 and 211 at JMU may need more than 4 semesters to graduate.
3. Students pursuing a BA degree must demonstrate proficiency in a foreign language (either through the JMU foreign language placement exam or coursework). Please note that JMU does not grant transfer credit for the 101-102 levels of a foreign language that a student studied for two or more years in high school.
4. Students pursuing a BS degree need two 200-level math courses (at JMU these are calculus and statistics) or one 200-level math course and two additional transferable math courses.

Our photographers choose to work with only a limited number of seniors each year for two reasons. The first reason being, it provides us the ability to get to know our clients and capture their personality. Your photos should show exactly who you are at this point in your life.

You might be looking for a racing car that is so powerful and fast for yourself or your child. In fact, several quality RC cars go for less than $100. Additionally, there are very many options in the market when it comes to choosing the top fastest rc cars under 100. However, several models are not properly manufactured, thus they may not serve you for a longer period.
Currently, the remote controlled cars are among the top most fun toys in the market. And no matter the age, everybody can get remote control car that can satisfy their gaming needs. There are so many models and brands available in the market. Therefore, it can be very overwhelming to choose a fast and quality RC car that is also affordable. The following guide contains a list of top RC cars that you should consider when you are looking for one.
Traxxas Rustler RC
Traxxas Rustler is one of fastest remote control cars that are very affordable in the RC vehicle market. This car has a broad stance to help land properly during the low and high jumps. Its top speed is approximately 35 to 42 mph for most base models. Another good thing about it is that its parts are always interchangeable, thus enabling you to replace as many parts as you desire no matter how often they break down. Traxxas Rustler is a high-level radio entry RC car that is affordable and quite fun to use.
WowWee Robotic Car
If your child's social skills are below bars, then the WowWee robotic racing car will be a perfect gaming companion. It contains a full automated AI driven car that runs side-by-side to your kid's Remote Control car. It can go for 45 MPH. The AI-driven feature helps to match the gaming ability of the person who is playing. Also, it can be ridden by another person if your kid has got friends coming over. If you are looking forward to buying an interactive racing car for yourself or your children, then the WowWee robot package is all you need.
Traxxas XO-1
Traxxas XO-1 is one of the top rated racing cars in the gaming industry right now. It is proven that this super racing car can reach up to 65 MPH in just 2.5 seconds and also 100 MPH in only 4.95 seconds. It can work best with the LiPos batteries considering its size and speed. Its motor is just a few cubic inches. Therefore, it can be housed in an attractively designed exterior. Any user can obtain the TQi program and link with the Traxxas package for the most powerful tuning tools. This toy is not only the fastest car in the market but also the sexiest racing car too. Most of the Traxxas models are normally blue, red or black sock. The Traxxas XO-1 toy car should be your first option if you are looking for the fastest remote control racing car in the market.
Redcat Racing Drift Car
The Redcat Racing car has a lot to offer, just from the features, appearance, price, durability to speed. It is an affordable gaming toy that requires 8 AA Aluminium batteries that have oil filled shocks to boost its workability. It appears like an orange and black Lamborghini model. It is quite fast and also durable. It can ride up 50 MPH, and as required, it can drift marvelously whenever you are taking turns at the corners.

When I created this amazingly delicious, super soft and oh-so-satisfying recipe, I was troubled by how to serve it. Should I cut into squares, or spoon onto bowls (and possibly top with coconut whipped cream)?! The texture is so moist, almost custard like, that eating it warm out of a bowl would have been fine too. But clearly it's not so soft that it doesn't hold up when cut, as you can see. Either way, you cannot go wrong.
Pumpkin Pie Cake
Coconut flour can be a tricky flour with which to bake. It absorbs a ton of liquid, so I seldom use it alone; I usually combine it with almond flour. I set out to make a nut-free treat though, so almond flour was not an option. The result is a rich and satisfying cake with a slightly "pumpkin pie" texture. Feel free to melt more chocolate chips and drizzle on top.
- Prep Time : 5 minutes
- Cook Time : 50 minutes
- Yield : 12
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons egg whites
- 3/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/2 cup zero calorie sweetener - (I like a granulated blend of monk fruit, stevia and erythritol)
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate chips - (I use Lily's)
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large stand mixer or bowl, add the pumpkin, almond milk, applesauce, egg and egg whites and mix on low until combined.
- Add in the coconut flour and sweetener and mix again.
- Finally, add in remaining ingredients and mix until combined.
- Line a 9-by-9 inch glass baking dish with parchment paper and lightly coat with cooking spray. Add batter and place in oven for 48-52 minutes, or until set (center should be soft, but set).
- Remove and cool slightly before cutting.
- If you wish to drizzle with chocolate, melt 3 tablespoons of chocolate chips with 2 tablespoons of almond milk.

This article was published on The Marketing Scope.
As event organizers and brand marketers, you already know that sponsorships can be a significant share of your budget. You also know that finding and incorporating the right sponsorships into your event can bolster its overall success.
That's why you can't afford to approach sponsorship opportunities as simply a chance for brands to slap their logos onto something.
Providing an immersive, multi-touch experience for sponsors and attendees will benefit you in a number of ways. First off, more high-quality brands will be eager to get involved with your event, allowing you to command a heftier price tag. Second, it will improve your event's atmosphere as a whole, lead to a better experience for attendees, and boost consumer engagement for all parties.
Creating Unique, Captivating, and Immersive Connections
According to my company's research, 29 percent of potential sponsors say their top priority is seeking unique promotional opportunities. Trade shows can have anywhere from 25 to 2,500 companies all vying for the audience's attention, making it awfully hard to stand out.
Allowing sponsors to set up strategic, exciting, and interactive booths gives them the opportunity to effectively compel attendees in distinctive ways. In return, attendees find great enjoyment in exploring these entertaining exhibits as they navigate the event.
It's also wise to find ways to incorporate sponsors into the overall fabric of your show. The Golf Industry Show, for example, features an "Expert on the Hour" discussion that brings figures from sponsoring brands to provide brief presentations and answer attendee questions in a theater area of the trade show during an exclusive 30-minute period.
These are just a couple of substantive additions that could enhance attendee learning and engagement and boost brand equity for your company and your sponsors.
"Unique" is the key word when approaching a shift in your sponsorship mindset. Offering the same bland opportunities as everyone else provides absolutely no incentive for brands to choose your event.
How to Shift Your Sponsorship Mindset
Changing your sponsorship approach might seem like a daunting task. But it's also critical, especially as more organizers recognize the importance of enhancing these opportunities. If you don't act now, you could find yourself picking from a much smaller, lower-quality pool of potential partners.
Here are three steps that will send you down the right path:
1. Gather Feedback
Interview past sponsors to see what worked for them and what didn't. In 2013, my company polled a large group of sponsors at a major food products trade show and found that a majority of them felt like their messages weren't properly reaching attendees.
This insight drove us to hone our current offerings and make sure the show wasn't partnering with too many brands. Narrowing the sponsorships added an element of exclusivity to the event and made it more valuable to sponsors. A little sponsor feedback can go a long way.
2. Align Opportunities With Objectives
Many organizers fail to adopt an objectives-driven approach to sponsorships. Without aligning these opportunities to your company's overall objectives, you're creating a potential disconnect between yourself and corporate marketers. Take steps to communicate your goals and make sure everyone is on the same page. The American Specialty Toy Retailing Association successfully does this by publically posting a document that proposes sponsorships that align with a company's business goals.
3. Set Benchmarks, and Measure Success
Organizers need to set clear objectives for sponsors and create benchmarks to help gauge the success of these partnerships. There are many factors you can measure to define these benchmarks: event attendance, the number of leads generated, website hits, attendee survey results, and more. You can even use video technology to help measure success. Documenting the flow of attendees and what they gravitate toward can be a great learning tool.
Modern-day event attendees seek multi-touch, immersive experiences, so it's crucial to find unique ways to incorporate sponsors into your events. Successfully doing so provides a win for all parties: Attendees have a more enjoyable time, sponsors create more meaningful connections with consumers, and you, the organizer, get the perks of putting on a great event.

Networking is the connecting together of many types of devices in a way that they can all communicate together and share information. In the past, this meant computers and printers. Now it includes fax devices, phones, tablets, and many other types of technology. This also includes the cabling or wireless devices that connect it all together.

SkinFree announces availability at CVS.com
SHIPMAN, Va. Blue Ridge Gypsy Studio's line of SkinFree Products for people with eczema, allergies and other skin issues, is now available at CVS.com, according the skin care company.
The products are also sold at CVS stores in Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Washington DC.
"Working in a typical retail pharmacy setting, I was constantly asked for recommendations from customers for products that are safe for difficult skin problems, especially by those with fragrance allergies," said company founder Julie Hilton, who has more than 30 years experience in compounding and developing natural skin care. "I recognized a void in the market through this experience and knew that I could create effective and affordable products for common skin issues."
SkinFree Products are all-natural and contain no perfumes, petroleum products, harmful chemicals, steroids or colorants. The products are created using naturally occurring vegetable oils and butters that have nutrients, antioxidants, non-steroidal anti-inflammatories and antibacterial agents.
Blue Ridge Gypsy Studio promotes the skin care line primarily through doctor's offices, media and word of mouth. Free products have been distributed to hospital clinics and dialysis centers throughout Virginia and North Carolina.
Juice Beauty goes green with recycled packaging
Juice Beauty, which uses a blend of more than 26 certified organic fruit juices as a base for its skin and body care products, has now moved toward using 100 percent recycled packaging.
"We are thrilled that we have made one more step to being 100 percent green by moving to 100 percent recycled, post consumer waste cartons, labels and paper," stated Karen Behnke, chief executive officer.
The company also has launched its entire company building on a paper, glass and plastic recycling program. When Behnke and her husband, Howard Luria, built their house, they practiced "green" habits by using insulation made of recycled blue jeans; an eco-clay for the stucco; radiant heating (water running through the pipes in the floor heated by solar); a solar heated pool; and recycled wood beams and flooring. She also makes her five-minute commute to the office in a Toyota Prius.
That passion is evident in the company's business practices as well as it uses a blend of more than 26, 100 percent certified organic fruit juices as a base for its products.
"Organic ingredients are produced by farmers who emphasize the use of renewable resources and the conservation of soil and water to enhance environmental quality for future generations," stated Melissa Jochim, head of formulations. "Organic ingredients are produced without using most conventional pesticides; fertilizers made with synthetic ingredients or sewage sludge, bioengineering, or ionizing radiation. Before a product can be labeled 'organic,' a government-approved certifier inspects the farm ensuring that all regulations are followed to meet USDA organic standards."
In addition, all of the company's juices are locally farmed in California and the Pacific Northwest as buying local ensures freshness and limits the company's carbon footprint.
P&G to trim its staff by 15 percent
CINCINNATI Procter & Gamble is looking to bolster productivity and drive growth by trimming about 15 percent of its staff at the general manager level and above, according to published reports.
The company, whose brands include Crest and Pantene, was reported as saying that many of the job cuts will come through attrition as associates retire or leave the company.
P&G is also working to reduce by half the number of distribution centers it operates globally. According to reports, it has shuttered more than 200 of its 571 distribution centers so far, and expects to close another 70 by the end of 2009.
P&G also is eliminating duplication between organizations.

Vikram Vij is the colourful panelist on CBC's Dragon's Den, cookbook author, and restaurateur who co-owns four restaurants, a fast food outlet and frozen food line with wife Meeru Dhalwala. Here, he interacts with Enerex:
How do you always make food taste good?
There is no exact science. It will taste good if you put a lot of love into it. To me, food is art; it is not just something you eat. And it is not about following a recipe. It is about creating your own style, and not worrying about whether it turns out. Even after all of these years, cooking still stimulates my mind.
Do you cook when not at work?
Sunday nights, I do all of the cooking at home.
Is cooking Indian food much different than other styles?
Unlike all of the steps required for other types of cooking, like French, most Indian cooking is stews so you are always simply adding and mixing flavours in a pot. But the aromas and flavours of each individual one are different and mouth-watering, especially when you combine the right spices.
What is your favourite utensil?
Wooden tongs. I use them for everything. They were handcrafted from a single piece of wood by a First Nations artist, and were given to me as a gift. (The utensil looks like sculpted salad tongs.)
What is your own kitchen's best feature?
The butcher's block. Meeru and I had a lot of discussion about it before we got it, and it is now the centre of the kitchen. I like the pots hanging above it, and the conversation that people can have standing around it while they spend time with me when I'm cooking.
What do you do for exercise to work off that food?
I enjoy yoga, tennis in the summer, and skiing in winter, but am not fanatic about any of them.

Thigh-high or simply over-the-knee boots are the ones that extend above the knees. They are also said to be a next Fall Winter must have. God, I am looking forward to this Fall, but how to deal with their implied eroticism and still look glamorous? I think I figured it out!

Things I Want to Remember, Round 1
Tuesday, March 8, 2016
Here are some things about them that I want to remember of this time with my little ones...
* CJ uses a lot of phrases and wordings that are quite grown up, and we're not quite sure where she got them. She'll say, "I am feeling cross..." or "This looks a little odd!"
* She has a little stutter and lisp, but makes up for it with her expressive face and hands. She's chattering around the clock, even with her make-believe.
* Lately, she's taken to wearing leotards around the house and practicing her ballet at home. She is also a budding artist and has requested to take an art class after ballet is over in a few weeks.
* How he says, "Of course!" (with a soft "r") in response to my requests. Such as, "RG, would you like to go outside?" "Of COYS!" He is speaking better and better. I especially love how he starts a lot of sentences with a, "Hmmmm."
* He is all boy--tumbling around the house, wielding everyday objects as swords, obsessing over trains and construction trucks, and exhibiting a near-constant stream of energy. And yet, he loves to mimic his sister and easily joins in with playing dress up and dolls. It cracked us up when he requested a Kristof barbie for Christmas, and we happily obliged.
* He is potty-training right now (round two for him, as I gave up a day in to our first attempt). I love his happy face when he gets a sticker and his excited voice, "I did it!"
Baby D
* Like his big sister, his little hands are like a dog's tail, always going in circles and manifesting his feelings.
* I am relishing this baby so very much, as his two older siblings remind daily how quickly this phase will end. It's breaking my heart that he can sit up without much help, is conquering his pincer grasp during meals, and already boasting 6 teeth.
* Baby D's eyes light up every. sticking. time I look at him. He buoys up my spirits every single day and I am so thrilled to have him as our baby. Right now, the feelings are mutual. My theory is that babies love you as much as you love them for that first year. What a precious time!
4 comments:
All your kids are adorable but I love that RG so much. His hugs are the very best and I will be so so so sad when he stops speaking Mandarin.ReplyDeleteReplies
Ha! He is still bilingual.Delete
I had a stutter when I was little too! It just went away eventually, but it made me self-conscious to speak in front of people/a group. Hmmm...maybe that's why I still am self-conscious about speaking in front of people now! Who knows. But CJ is so grown up now! And beautiful. RG requested a Kristof barbie for Christmas?!?! Another reason he's my fav. I really need to meet baby D. He's soooo precious.ReplyDeleteReplies
I never knew that about you! I had a bad lisp... My kids are destined to a bunch of speech impediments. I wish you could see that baby though--you really would LOVE him! And he you.Delete

Disposable Mop Caps are an essential when it comes to promoting hygiene in the kitchen and is used to prevent contamination of food during the handling process.
Some of the most common places that use mop caps is cafeterias in office buildings or schools/universities. These kitchens are generally constructed to have a large flow of food output. In this instance, maintaining a hygienic environment can be challenging. Especially when peak hours arrive and the kitchen staff become overwhelmed.
Therefore, mop caps can play an important role in reducing the amount of human contamination to the food.
Similarly, these caps are also essential in classy restaurants. Patrons and guests at the more expensive establishments will expect a higher quality of food standards. Needless to say, finding a few hairs in their food is definitely unacceptable. A single hair could completely ruin the reputation of the restaurant. Therefore, mop caps are definitely a necessity.
In other cases, disposable mop caps should also be used on the factory floor for those companies that manufacture food products. A soggy strand of marinated hair is definitely not what you want to find in your canned tomato. The same can be said for any other products in the food industry.
Additionally, these caps can be used for a variety of other industries, such as at hospitals, laboratories, breweries, and farms just to name a few. See also our other disposable products : protective sleeves, disposable aprons and deli gloves.

If you're looking for real-time feedback that can help you set goals and constantly improve, we recommend wearing a heart rate monitoring device. Mio Fuse wrist bands are available for purchase in studio and offer precise heart rate monitoring from your wrist. It's way more comfortable, accurate and motivating than a chest strap. We also encourage you to use your own devices like an Apple Watch. Note, in a cardio/strength interval training class like Fuse45, calorie count will read lower than in traditional steady state cardio classes. The truth is, you will burn more calories throughout your day due to the EPOC effect during a Fuse45 class than any class we've ever tried!
What if I can't do everything in the class due to injuries or because I haven't worked out in a while?
One of the best things about Fuse45 is that it can be adapted to any fitness level. With no impact machines, you create your own resistance so the workout based on your own ability. With ever class will come increased strength. You will see improvements very quickly. With injuries, our instructors are trained to offer different exercise options to accommodate just about any injury, pain or ache. You should be A-OK!
Is there a beginner class?
We don't offer a beginner class because beginners are welcome in any class on our schedule. We have new clients in almost every class.
Can I take classes if I am pregnant?
Many pregnant women are able to exercise right up until their due date, but we recommend you check with your doctor before taking a class.
Do you have childcare in the studio?
No. Unfortunately, we don't. However, we do offer a Mommy (or Daddy!) and Baby class every Friday at noon in our Royal Oak studio. Bring your babe with you! You can use any package or membership to reserve this class.
Do you have discounts?
Fuse45 does not offer discounts, but our packages do become less expensive when you buy in bulk. And the best value offered to our clients is the monthly unlimited membership where you can come as many times as you want. However, students and teachers can benefit from 10% off regularly priced single classes and packages. From time to time, we offer complimentary classes taught by our instructors in training.
How old do you have to be to take a Fuse45 class?
Age does not really matter, but height does. Clients must be at least 4'11" to participate in the full class. If a shorter client wishes to take class, they can but will not be tall enough for the cycling station. Instructors can offer a different option instead of cycling for a client in this situation. *Please note, if you are under 18, your parent or guardian will need to sign a waiver in person.

The original keto bulletproof coffee recipe is pretty simple. Discovered by David Asprey while on a trip in Tibet, the original keto bulletproof coffee recipe includes grass fed butter, MCT oil and coffee.
Let me tell you if you just put those ingredients in your cup, while it might taste okay, something magical happens when you blend it to emulsify the fats.
What is BulletProof Coffee?
Bullet proof coffee is brain food. People who limit the carbohydrates in their diet, mostly replacing those carbs with fat, need fast acting fats to stimulate their bodies to burn fat instead of sugar.
On a personal note, when I drink bullet proof coffee in the morning, I am not hungry for hours allowing me to extend the evening fast.
Keto BulletProof Coffee Recipe Success
To make a keto bulletproof coffee recipe successfully one needs to start with a quality coffee bean. Then grind it fresh. Some people even suggest starting with the roasting process.
Next you need actual grass fed butter. There are nutrients in that type of butter that simply are not in regular butter. And while David Asprey now suggests Brain Octane in his Bullet Proof Coffee recipe, a quality MCT oil will work just fine. (MCT stands for medium chain triglyceride) MCT oil is fast acting brain fuel.

Keto Bulletproof Coffee Recipe With Pumpkin:
- 3-4 cups plain brewed quality coffee.
- 1 ¼ cup full fat, unsweetened coconut milk.
- 3 tbsp. MCT Oil.
- 3 tbsp. organic pumpkin puree.
- 1 tbsp. grass-fed unsalted butter or ghee.
- 1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice.
- ½ tsp. vanilla.
- Optional: 1-2 tsp. xylitol or stevia (to taste)'
Mix it all in a blender.
This will spike your insulin and blood sugar levels because there are carbs in this drink. So if you are intermittent fasting, this might not be your choice of breakfast beverage every day.
Keto Bulletproof Coffee Recipe – Vanilla
- 2 cups plain brewed quality coffee
- 1 tbsp. grass-fed butter
- One tsp MCT oil.
- 1 tsp vanilla
Blend in magic bullet or blender. This will not stimulate an insulin response. It is my morning go-to drink for energy and comfort.
Keto Bulletproof Coffee Recipe – Mocha Latte
- 2 cups plain brewed quality coffee.
- 1 tsp 100% pure Cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp. MCT Oil.
- 2 tbsp grass-fed butter
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- Stevia to taste
Mix in the blender until creamy. This might stimulate an insulin response because of the cocoa powder as most cocoa powder has some carbs in it.
While some keto bulletproof coffee affectionados prefer unsalted butter, I find that salted butter provides way more flavor. Especially true when adding extracts. One that note, you can add other extract flavors, not just vanilla, to change things up in your morning cup.
