When you prepare peanut butter and jelly sandwich on a whole wheat bread made with two tablespoons of peanut butter and two two tablespoons of grape jelly, it sums up to a whopping 530 calories, 74 grams of carbs, 460 mg of sodium, 35 grams sugar and 20 grams of fat. According to research, it has been stated that although there are fat content present in peanut butter, this fat is however primarily monounsaturated fats. This simply means that the fat can help lower bad cholesterol and reduce inflammation in the body.

Are peanut butter and jelly sandwiches Good for weight loss?
Whether you like the chunky or creamy versions, peanut butter is almost not the first thing you reach for when you are on a diet plan. Although, it is rich in protein, peanut butter is also has a high content, as it contains almost one hundred calories in tablespoon.
However, research suggests that consuming peanut butter might not stop you from losing weight. This is to say that consuming it might even help you shed pounds.
Study shows that a diet that contains high level of monounsaturated fats, for example the ones that are found in nuts, may help people lose weight and as well prevent heart disease and other health conditions. Another study shows that regular consumption of nut slightly lowers the risk of weight gain and obesity. However, an ongoing research states that there is a strong evidence that peanut butter is an effective weight-loss tool when eaten in moderation.
There are two ways by which peanut butter works to help you lose weight: first is by helping control your appetite and second, by suppressing blood sugar. Peanut butter tends to keep you fuller, for long. Feeling full will however led to eating less which will result in more efficient weight loss. There are certain foods that can cause a spike in your blood sugar. These include processed and starchy foods (most especially). Study shows that unstable blood sugar could lead to obesity and diabetes. Interestingly, peanut butter, despite its delicious texture and natural sweetness has a low glycemic index. This is to say that consuming peanut butter is a way of taking fats as well as protein and fiber without sending your blood sugar levels into a tailspin.
Research has however shown that eating a serving (that is two tablespoons) of peanut butter with a meal helps to stabilize the glycemic effect of the meal that was otherwise high on the glycemic index.
When you want to purchase a peanut butter for the purpose of weight loss, be sure to look at the label. This is so because some peanut butter brands have tons of added sugar as well as salt, and preservatives.
Make sure to get the natural, organic peanut butter brands as they are the best to choose if you are looking to lose weight. Read the nutrition labels so as to find the lowest amounts of sodium and added sugar.
It is also very important to knowe that some peanut butter brands advertise their product as a “peanut butter spread” instead of simply “peanut butter,” this gives them license to add all sorts of other ingredients and sugar.
Also note that crunchy peanut butter are essential to your health. This is because they contain more fiber and folate. both of which are essential to your health. The creamy peanut butter choices may offer a tad more protein content, chboosing fiber over protein may have the same filling effect. It will also help in promoting good digestion.
What happens if you eat peanut butter and jelly everyday?
1. It could increase your inflammation levels
Research shows that peanuts are rich in omega-6 fats, which could help to stimulate the production of inflammatory mediators. Omega-3 fats are not present in peanuts, which normally help in counteracting the inflammation. So therefore, it is important that your diet contains a wealth of omega-3-rich foods, which may include oily fish such as salmon, also healthy oils like flaxseed, and chia seeds.
2. It may increase your risk of exposure to pesticides
Some farmers when producing peanut can go heavy on the pesticides and herbicide use. Report shows that over 94 percent of planted acres of peanuts are covered in herbicides. The problem nor is that peanuts have a very light shell, so the chemicals can easily leach in to alter the original smell. Exposure to pesticides has been linked to birth defects and impaired fertility in men.
3. Consuming a peanut butter with hydrogenated oils could damage your cells.
A lot of processed peanut butters use hydrogenated vegetable oils as an emulsifier for more consistency. The danger of this is that hydrogenated oils are “damaged” fats which displace healthier fats in cellular membranes there by causing inflammation and also making it hard for your hormones to communicate with cells.
4. There is a small chance you could consume mold.
Personally, I do not recommend peanut products because of their susceptibility to invasions by fungi and mold. Aflatoxin, which is a fungus that is common to peanut products, can cause developmental delays in children. Not only that, over time it coud lead to a high risk of liver cancer. There is however a solution to this. Light roasting helps to protect peanuts against aflatoxin. It is however advisable that you should be vigilant when purchasing peanut butter as only major commercial brands of peanuts and peanut butters should be purchased. It is also advisable that you discard nuts that look moldy, discolored, or shriveled. You can as well choose different nut butters such as almond or cashew.
Peanut butter and jelly sandwich protein
One serving of peanut butter contains approximately 8 grams of protein. When you choose two slices of whole wheat bread, it can add an additional 1-3 grams, depending on the brand. Proteins are considered body building foods and they serve many important functions. Some of which includes: proper growth and repair of worn out tissues, contributing to healthy hair, skin, as well as nails, acting as hormones, contributing to healthy immune function, and so on! Also, consuming protein with every meal can help you manage your weight as it helps to keep you full long between meals.
Peanut butter calories
Peanut butter is quite high in fat and calories. For instance, a tablespoon of peanut butter contains 90 calories and 8 grams of fat. And if you prefer a thick layer of peanut butter on your toast, then you might be consuming more calories than you think you need.
Calories in turkey sandwich
Smoked turkey on whole grain bread contains lesser amount of calories and fat. It contains 99% fat-free turkey with lettuce, tomato, mayo and mustard, altogether, it contains 560 calories, 2.5 grams of saturated fat, 1,960 mg of sodium as well as 17 grams of total fat.
Peanut butter sandwich nutrition
Several variables determines the nutrition of your peanut butter sandwich. Some has a high nutritional values than others due to some variables. These variables are listed below:
1. The bread you use, particularly whether it is a white or whole grain bread.
2. The amount of peanut butter you use, which can vary significantly.
3. What you choose to add (you can decide to add something sweet like honey, jelly, jam or fruit).
There is a difference between white bread and whole wheat bread. The difference is that whole wheat bread has twice as much protein as white bread. This is because whole wheat bread is produced from flour which includes the bran and germ. This is essential because both bread and peanut butter are incomplete proteins. This is because they lack certain essential amino acids, but when combined, they create a complete protein. Due to obvious reasons, whole wheat bread is a better pair for peanut butter than white bread.
A slice of whole wheat bread contains roughly about 4 grams of protein. On the other hand, a slice of white bread has just 2 grams of protein. An ounce of peanut butter which is about two tablespoons, contains roughly about 7 grams of protein. The 8 grams of protein in two slices of wheat bread therefore makes 15 grams of protein in the sandwich. While a sandwich with just one ounce of peanut butter made from white bread would contain just 11 grams.
A slice of bread contains roughly about 12 or 13 grams of carbohydrates be it white or whole wheat. According to research, a slice of whole wheat contains 3 times as much dietary fiber as white bread. This is significant because the soluble fiber present in whole wheat bread can help to lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Also, an ounce of peanut butter contains roughly about 6 grams of carbohydrate, 2 of which are dietary fiber. Study shows that men need at least 30 grams of fiber each day and women need at least 20.
Study shows that most of the calories in peanut butter come from fat. One ounce contains roughly about 16 grams of total fat. The natural brands have slightly less saturated fat, which is why the oil rises to the top. However, most of the fat in peanut butter of any kind is healthy monounsaturated fat. Bread also contains little fat, which is about 1 gram per slice.
It is evident that the best way to add extra nutrition to your peanut butter sandwich is to use raw fruit. As it is, half a banana sliced up and included in your sandwich adds nothing less than 210 mg of potassium, or roughly about 5% of the recommended daily intake. Also, a whole cup of raw strawberries provides roughly about 220 mg of potassium and less than 7 grams of sugar.
Protein in peanut butter sandwich
Peanut butter sandwich is rich in protein. With a single slice of bread, it instantly gives you 10 grams of protein before you even add the filling.

Akhshaya Navaneethan (left) and Ankit Dawar walk the ramp for designer Rina Dhaka at the 2019 Lakme Fashion Week
For Akhshaya Navaneethan, fashion is not just about looking and feeling good. It is political, polarising and a fight to be accepted for who she is: A size 20 model who wants to catwalk her way into the elite circles of India’s fashion industry that defines beauty as an external attribute. The 24-year-old Chennai girl wants to be more than the labels of ‘sample size’ or ‘plus size’. This is her way, she says, of telling people to love their bodies and making designers notice the gap between the realities of women’s body types and the variety of luxe apparel available for them.
She might be getting somewhere with this tall ambition, given that her recent appearance was at the Lakme Fashion Week (LFW), one of the biggest, most glamorous events in India’s fashion calendar. Walking the ramp for designer Rina Dhaka, Navaneethan says she felt her efforts—which include training prospective ‘plus size’ models to flaunt their best versions for a niche, but growing market—have received a leap.
“This might sound like progress, but it is slow. There’s this ingrained mindset that fashion sells best only if it is represented by certain body types,” she says. “Why can’t designers be more diverse? Why can’t the top names doing a fashion show that is watched by many influencers have at least one bigger sized model in their lineup? Why aren’t ‘plus size’ women featured more prominently in their campaigns? These are some questions the industry has just started answering.”
Even three years ago, the idea of ‘plus size’ models strutting the ramp at LFW or other big fashion events would have been unheard of. Since then, however, not only has mass retail catering to this category of consumers grown, but even luxury brands and upscale designers are catching on to a trend that they are also viewing as a lucrative business opportunity.
According to statistics portal Statista, revenue in India’s fashion segment amounts to $12.54 billion in 2019 and is expected to grow at an annual rate of about 20.8 percent, resulting in a market volume of $26.72 billion by 2023. The largest segment of this market—which also includes leather goods, shoes and accessories—is apparel, with a market volume of about $10 billion in 2019. The ‘plus size’ category of customers becomes important here because about half of the total consumers in India are beyond the standard ‘size 0-12’ bracket. This trend rings true in the US too. According to Business Insider
, ‘plus size’ consumers constitute about 67 percent of the population, generating around $21 billion in annual sales.
“Model sizing—the sizes showcased on the ramp—constitutes just 10 percent of sales. Nearly everything is a size beyond, usually between 4 and 16. Designers are also conceding to this fact,” says Jaspreet Chandok, vice president and head (fashion), IMG Reliance, which organises LFW. “Three years ago, inclusive sizing was seen as a risk, but today more and more designers and labels are seeing it as par for the course, something that needs to be ingrained in their work.”
Rini Phalgunan agrees. The Bengaluru-based designer says 60 percent of sales in her boutique Rini Couture are from the ‘plus sized’ clientele. Her bespoke and off-the-rack offerings include suits, tunics, skirts, gowns, kaftans and other Western wear. The price range starts from ₹5,000. “We have seen a 45 percent increase in sales in this category of customers in the last two years. Since 2017, for example, our collection of suit sets [about 110 pieces] has been a sell-out,” she says, explaining that while people of larger sizes were traditionally underserved by an industry that offered them limited options, this segment of consumers has started asserting itself and is experimenting with silhouettes and colours.
“Most ‘plus size’ women are treated to jump suits, fit and flare styles, form-fitting dresses and the sheath dress depending on their body type. These are the only silhouettes we have been recommending this size category for years,” she says. “But now the millennials are ready to experiment with shorter dresses, deeper necks, flary tunics, etc.”
Nicobar’s latest ‘plus size’ collection, Core
Nicobar, a lifestyle design studio from the creators of Good Earth, has also joined the chorus with its Core collection, which was launched in September after seeing the “universal need for extended sizing’,” says Aparna Chandra, design head (clothing), Nicobar. “Our sizes start from an XS and go on to 3XL, but our endeavour is to extend that selection to everyone… we are producing them as we go, and more sizes keep getting added to the range.”
While Chandra says she cannot comment on the demand and revenue generating ability of the range, the brand is planning to offer extended sizes across all their collections. “We would like to do this as these collections are launched, and not as a gradual process,” she says. Bigger Potential
Another reason why designers and high-end boutiques—from Sabyasachi Mukherjee to the Half Full Store—are taking note of the business potential of the ‘plus size’ segment is because of mass retail outlets that are aggressively trying to tap this customer base.
Improving internet penetration helps India’s population—half of whom are under the age of 25 and nearly two-thirds under 35—access brands across the spectrum. A recent report on the country’s apparel market by Care Ratings indicates that while the top fashion brands focussed largely on metros, proliferation of ecommerce and popularity of the mall culture in tier II cities have helped retailers reach these untapped regions. Digitally connected shoppers aware of the latest fashion trends, adds the report, are providing a huge opportunity for brands and designers to reach a larger clientele.
“The Indian ‘plus size’ market is estimated to have a share of 12 percent of the overall fashion market and is expected to grow at 25 percent per annum for the next five years,” says Amar Nagaram, head, Myntra Jabong, which launched its brand Sztori in 2018, specifically for bigger sizes. “There is a large untapped market for plus sizes that needs to be catered to, with online platforms clearly having the potential and edge to penetrate deeper into these markets.”
Hetal Kotak, CEO of aLL, a chain of stores that is among the pioneers of ‘plus size’ retail in India, agrees that the internet is helping create awareness and a larger customer base. “Online accounted for 10 percent of our annual revenue of about ₹280 crore last year. We are seeing a year-on-year growth of about 20 percent,” he says. Currently, aLL has about 80 exclusive outlets, and nearly 40 as part of Central malls across India.
Wendell Rodricks, who was one of the first top designers in India to adopt inclusive sizing across his creations, believes that it was inevitable that the issue of size would trickle down among designers, who would have to address it to stay real, practical, profitable and relevant. “With experience and a keen eye on the balance sheet, more designers will realise the market potential of treating fashion in a democratic, embracing, and inclusive manner,” he says. “While doing so, we must also leave the West, or other countries like China out of the picture, since they are a different market with a vastly different aesthetic. For example, the West feels that bright colours are not for ‘plus size’, but Indians love colour. So we should celebrate our ethnicity.”
Wendell Rodricks’s Primero Collection for aLL at the Lakme Fashion Week, 2017
This growing affinity for inclusive sizing in the industry is starting to reflect on high-fashion ramps, say industry experts, which means designers are becoming more diverse in their selection of models. Dhaka believes that including models of various sizes, skin tones and orientations should be the essence of fashion. “The ‘plus size’ consumer is here to stay and their confidence is incredible,” she says. “Some of the women who walked for me [at LFW] have been called by the Fashion Design Council of India (FDCI)to be part of their regular pool of models from which designers pick lineups for the India Fashion Week. This is the beginning of more size 18s representing fashion on a catwalk alongside a size 8 or a sample size.”Bigger Problems
The reason why luxury inclusive sizing may not have fully gotten its moment in the sun yet could be two-fold: Cost concerns and limited understanding of the nuances of body positivity.
Phalgunan explains that producing larger-size garments can often cost more than smaller-sized items due to “production complexities like using more fabric for some items without charging more, grading patterns as sizes go up and down the scale, finding the right sewing staff that understand the silhouettes, and finding the right silhouettes themselves”. Plus, she says, “There is this long-standing industry belief that ‘plus size’ women won’t spend money on expensive clothes because they think they will lose weight.”
Chandra says since Nicobar is a small company, feasibility and cost have to be factored in at every step. “We have forayed into extended sizing with tried-and-tested basics that work on every body type, and clothes that people will buy time and again. The restriction comes from the business end of the brand. It’s just easier for a business to start with the more commonly-picked sizes,” she says.
“Do designers really care?” asks fashion commentator Prasad Bidapa. “They just want to move stock as fast as possible. Even overweight designers have to order clothes for themselves as there are no standard sizes set in [designer] clothing for the obese. Body positivity is all very well, but will it make them money?” Bidapa, whose model management agency has discovered and groomed celebrities like Deepika Padukone, Anushka Sharma and John Abraham, says many designers continue to feel that creating larger sizes would affect their brand image. “On the other hand, some feel they are encouraging unhealthy lifestyles by catering to overweight audiences.”
Navaneethan agrees that she has personally faced instances where excess body weight has been equated with unhealthiness. “They pass judgements even before considering if the weight is because of hormonal issues or simply genetics. Sometimes, I feel that designers rope in ‘plus size’ models just because someone else is doing it and they don’t want to be left out of the trend.”
Model Nancy Pathak believes that the bias is clearly visible in how designers organise separate shows for ‘plus size’ models but do not include them in their regular lineup because they don’t consider them ramp material. “Designers also think that thinner models look younger. In most auditions there is a silent understanding that models of larger sizes are not welcome. So while thinner models go for auditions almost every month, we get casting calls once in three to four months.”
The 31-year-old is disappointed even with the recent FDCI auditions, where she and about 15 other ‘plus size’ models were selected for its model pool, only to not receive callbacks. “When we questioned them, they said none of the designers has made clothes suited for larger sizes. Some models were even asked to lose weight. Where is the body positivity in all this? And if you did not intend to include us in your shows, why waste our time with auditions and publicise it on social media?”
Pathak, whose PhD from Jawaharlal Nehru University was a study in body politics and why fashion has body image issues, is now launching a content company that will offer to make portfolios and videos for ‘plus size’ models free of cost. “If the industry wants to be inclusive, it has to understand body positivity at the most basic level.”
Chandok of IMG Reliance agrees that not all designers are evolved to embrace inclusivity. “While high street retail has started creating sub-groups within their existing ranges to cater to larger sizes, a bulk of designer wear focusses on imagery [they use ‘plus size’ models in campaigns but do not always make clothes for them].”
In all, however, models, designers and commentators agree that luxe fashion is headed in the right direction. As Chandok puts it: “Inclusive sizing is becoming an industry-wide conversation. While not everyone has converted to the idea, it will certainly speed up in the next two-three years.”

200 trees burnt down in Pune’s Warje forest
DCF, Pune, said that slum dwellers who were evicted from reserved forest land were behind the incident.pune Updated: Nov 24, 2017 15:19 IST
As many as 200 trees spread over a five-acre reserved forest garden plot in Warje Malwadi had to face the brunt of unidentified miscreants who set fire to the trees on November 5.
Residents of the area have alleged negligence on the part of the forest department and termed their inaction as negligent and added that they had a lack of interest in saving the green cover of the area.
The residents further maintained that the matter was brushed under the carpet by the forest department and it was only after the residents met with local MLA Bhimrao Tapkir, that the issue was raised at the highest level.
The forest park is spread over 80 acres of reserved forest land and is the brainchild of union HRD minister Prakash Javadekar. The citizens had been planting trees in the memory of their beloved family members who had passed away and also in the name of prominent people who have contributed to the society for the past two years.
Tapkir, after receiving the information, rushed to the spot with the citizens, mostly morning walkers, and former corporators Kiran Bartakke, Sachin More and Vasant Deshmukh. They carried out an inspection of the affected area. The team found that slum dwellers were partying at these areas while some anti-social elements could be seen entering the forest area by jumping over the walls to pee in the forest from Ramnagar –Khanvasti slums.
Tapkir said that the forest department was to be blamed for the inaction and indifferent attitude towards forest conservation. “There is only one garden labourer who looks after the place and in his absence, the miscreants took advantage of the situation. If the forest department and its security force had carried out surveillance of the area, then the tree burning incidents could have been avoided,” he added.
Tapkir said that he will discuss the issue with forest minister Sudhir Mungantiwar and also ask the forest department officials to send their ‘good morning squad’ to crackdown on the revelers. Deputy conservator of forests (DCF) Rangnath Naikade said that slum dwellers who were evicted from the reserve forest land were behind the tree burning incident.
“The slum dwellers are not afraid of the law and are backed by politicians. The tree burning incident is a warning to the forest department to stop their anti-encroachment drive against them,” he said adding that a meeting of all the public representatives have been called to discuss and come up with a permanent solution to the problem.
Environmental activists alleged that rapid urbanisation of the city, rising land prices and lack of professionalism amongst the forest department as well as rampant corruption in their ranks was making the task of forest protection and conservation tough in the present and the future.

Eleanor Donnelly, the “Poet Laureate of the American Catholic Church,” donated our Blessed Mother altar and lived in the parish at 4502 Springfield Ave. She also penned a small tome in 1900, catchily titled: The Life of Sister Mary Gonzaga Grace of the Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent De Paul 1812-1897 – which includes several vivid chapters detailing Sister Gonzaga’s experiences as head nurse at the Satterlee Civil War Hospital, in our neighborhood, decades before our church was founded.
The Sisters (or Daughters) of Charity was a religious order, founded in Paris in 1633, to aid the poor and the sick. Their traditional clothing was “one of the most conspicuous of Catholic Sisters,” as it included a large, winged cap called a “cornette” — based on traditional peasant clothing when the order was founded. Because of the distinctive cap, the sisters were sometimes referred to as “God’s Geese,” and the hats were a frequent subject of wonder.
Donnelly quotes from Sister Gonzaga’ own journal, to explain how the sisters came to be at Satterlee: “In the twenty-fifth of May, 1862, a requisition was made by Surgeon-General Hammond, through Dr. I. J. Hayes, for twenty-five Sisters of Charity, to nurse the sick and wounded soldiers in the West Philadelphia Hospital — afterwards known as the Satterlee Hospital, in honor of General Satterlee…Dr. Hayes (of Arctic-exploration fame) was appointed Surgeon-in-Charge.” Today, the location of the hospital is described as a “sixteen-acre plot bounded by present-day Baltimore Avenue and Pine, Forty-third, and Forty-sixth Street” with a memorial stone in Clark Park.
Sister Gonzaga records that the Sisters were directed to be ready to move in to the still-under-construction hospital by June 9, 1862:
“Accordingly, twenty-two Sisters arrived at 10 a. m., on that day. The place was so large that we could not find the entrance. The workmen looked at us in amazement, thinking, perhaps, that we belonged to ‘the flying artillery’ (because of the hats!) After stepping over bricks and mortar, pipes, etc., we were ushered into an immense ward, while a good Irishman went in search of the Surgeon-in-Charge. He and his staff welcomed us and showed us to our quarters, and desired us to order dinner to suit ourselves. He then showed us through the Hospital, of which but eight wards were finished. The full number, when completed, was thirty-three, each accommodating seventy-five patients comfortably, with his separate table and chair. Attached to each ward, were two small rooms; one for the chief nurse, the other for the Sisters to keep medicines, little delicacies, etc., at hand. The Hospital grounds covered an area of fifteen acres, giving our sick ample space to rove about and recreate themselves.”
“At 12 pm. we repaired to the kitchen for dinner, and we could not help smiling when we saw the tea served in wash pitchers, and the meat and potatoes in basins. There was neither knife, nor fork, nor spoon. Upon asking for them, the cook answered that he had only four for the officers’ use, but as they did not dine until later, he could lend them to us. We used them in turn. By the time we had finished dinner, we found they were bringing in some sick — about one hundred and fifty. All went to workhttps://archive.org/details/lifeofsistermary00donn to prepare some nourishment for the poor fellows, who looked at us in amazement, not knowing what manner of beings we were” (because of the hats!).
“On the sixteenth of August, over fifteen hundred sick and wounded soldiers were brought to the Hospital, most of them from the battle of Bull Run….The wards being now crowded, tents were erected…” Patients tried to show their appreciation for the Sisters’ tireless patient ministrations: one convalescent, “when ‘on leave,’ — ran all over town, seeking in every millinery shop for a new white cornette such as the Sisters wore (and which he did not know were never purchased in such quarters), to replace the old, and sometimes blood-bespattered bonnet that covered his faithful nurse’s head.” Donnelly reports that “During the three years which the sisters passed at the Military Hospital of West Philadelphia, they attended over eighty thousand sick or wounded soldiers!”

7,000 PIA employees to lay off voluntarily and will be satisfactorily compensated by the Civil Aviation Authority of Pakistan.
Federal Aviation Minister Ghulam Sarwar recently told a media team that PIA requires only 7 thousand employees. It currently has over 14,000 employees which is a result of political influence.
These 7,000 employees will have to be let go of via Voluntary Separation Scheme (VSS) and those will be compensated.
As for the suspicious licenses of 262 pilots, the minister said that no misinformation was forwarded on this matter. An inquiry was also initiated which found 82 to be guilty. Those who came clean in the inquiries got their clearance certificates as well.
As for the vacant Director General CAA post, he told that about 600 candidates applied for the position, and 18 were shortlisted. But even the shortlisted ones failed to fulfill the standards.
It was also told that the Aircraft Accident Investigation Board of Pakistan tasked to probe into the PIA plane crash near Havilian in 2016 has released its inquiry report and held PIA engineers responsible for the crash.

Anthony Chia This conceptual paper presents a preliminary empirical proposal to extend current service quality research to the Asian airline industry. Three inherent directions are implicated from the literature.
What do you do when your airline loses two passenger planes in a period of four months, resulting in the death or disappearance of more than five hundred people?
If you are Malaysia Airlines, you rebrand. The bewildered airline faces this challengein the wake of two high profile airline disasters recently. The first tragedy, which occurred in March, resulted in the disappearance of passengers and crew when Flight MH vanished, presumably over the Indian Ocean.
Shortly after that event in July, as the company frantically tried to repair its image through a public relations blitz, a second senseless disaster crippled the company when Flight MH17 crashed over the conflict area of Ukraine, killing all crew and passengers aboard. As the fallout from these events continues, the company hinted at accelerating plans to rebrand the companynow including the possibility of changing the airline's name and completely overhauling its image.
The company, which is owned mostly by the Malaysian government, has also expressed increased interest to bring on additional investors.
According to Hugh Dunleavey, Malaysia Airline's commercial director"There are several options on the table but all involve creating an airline fit for purpose in what is a new era for us, and other airlines.
Investigators struggle to determine the cause of these two events, which in both cases remains unknown. Regardless of the outcome, many hypothesize that the airline's days may be numbers so long as passengers consider flying on Malaysia Airlines too much of a risk.
There is precedence to this strategy. Embroiled in a controversy over an airline crash in that killed people, ValuJet merged with a much smaller competitor, AirTranassuming the smaller airline's name and even moving its headquarters.
Many believe that the quick move to change the name helped save the airline. Clearly, Malaysia Airlines is a much bigger company with much more at stake. Whether this strategy will help the airline overcome public opinion and the presumed risk resulting from these eventsis still unclear.

The United States and Romania have jointly selected Deveselu Air Base near Caracal, Romania, to host land-based Standard Missile-3 interceptors in the 2015 timeframe as part of the US national contribution to NATO’s ballistic missile defense architecture. The BMD site, encompassing about 430 acres, will consist of a radar deckhouse, command element, and launch modules containing the SM-3 interceptors, stated State Department officials. Collectively this capability is known as the Aegis Ashore System. It is part of the second phase of the Obama Administration’s European Phased Adaptive Approach BMD system designed to protect Europe and the United States from threat missiles emanating from the Middle East. “The site has many advantages, including existing infrastructure and advantageous geography,” said Ellen Tauscher, undersecretary of state for arms control and international security, of Deveselu Tuesday in remarks in Bucharest.

Eulogies, Applause, Greet First Abakaliki Ladies Open Championship Success As Rain Oil Pledges More Sponsorship
It is axiomatically right to say that the just concluded First Abakaliki Ladies Open Golf Championship met the media media hype it received build up to the event that held between November 4-6, 2021 at the Abakaliki Golf Club in the Ebonyi State capital.
The Ladies Golf Association of Nigeria (LGAN) and Royal & Ancient (R&A) of St Andrews, Scotland sanctioned event, the first-ever in the club since 24 years and the entire State as well, was well attended with over 150 participants from across the length and breathe of the country,
On the roll call of players that participated in the Championship for honours are Amina Wilfred of IBB Golf Club, Abuja, a serial winner of LGAN Open Championships and of course, the first champion of the AGC Ladies Open Championship.
Others include Blessing Obaje of David Mark Golf Club, Otukpo, Benue State; Love Ndareke of Port Harcourt Golf Club; Chy Ogban of AGC; Kessy Agana Irayitan, the ex-Lady Captain of Abeokuta Golf Club among others – they were all winners.
Interestingly, the success of the event did not come by chance in spite of all odds, but through deliberate and meticulous planning of the AGC Ladies under the able leadership of the Lady Captain, Enene Fonne, a United Nations (UN) appointee.
Recalled that the Lady Captain revealed to SOKOnnect in an earlier interview that the preparations for the event was a long term planning.
“The preparations for this epoch making event didn’t start overnight; from when I took up the mantle of leadership I was already focused on what I was going to do for the Ladies Open Championship; this is because it was going to be the first and there was need for it to be worth memorable, so that the next Ladies Captain coming on board can build on it.
“To God be the glory; I got supports from both individuals and corporate organisations and most interestingly, the members of AGC where hugely behind me – thanks to my Captain, Engr.Tony Egwu; Professor Brown Ejikeme; among others; the Ladies and staff of the AGC; LGAN; the PGA of Nigeria; Nigeria Golf Federation (NGF); the press – I love you all!” the Lady Captain enthused.
Indeed, the Club Captain,Engr. Egwu preparatory to the event maintained that the Club was behind the Lady Captain for the success of the first-ever Ladies Open Championship of the Club, just as virtually every AGC member interviewed at the event had positive story to tell about the Lady Captain, Fonne.
it was on this note, that the former Captain of the Club, Prof Ejikeme described the Lady Captain saying, “The Lady Captain is a go-getter, hardworking and intelligent person; it’s the reason everyone was behind her for the Open to be a successful one and it worked,” while pleading she agrees to extend her stay in the clubs management team.
LGAN President represented by Joyce Nule of Port Harcourt Golf Club, also did not mince words to give the lady Captain a pass mark on the success of the event, just as she advised on the need for the next Lady Captain to build on the legacy of the present Captain, Fonne.
Invariably, the joy of the Lady Captain could also be felt from the faculty of sponsors that were on ground as the Rain Oil which was the major sponsor of the event; Sigma Pensions; Nigerian Breweries and a host of others.
For Rain Oil, it was a blanket cheque giving out to support golf development as its representatives who spoke with SOKOnnect affirmed that it would continue to sponsor ladies golf events, particularly in Ebonyi State to help develop the game among the women folks in the state.
“Rain Oil is happy sponsoring the first Abakaliki Ladies Open Championship, because it’s part of our social responsibilities to give back to the society; Anytime the AGC Ladies call upon us, we will be willing to sponsor.”
It was in same vein that the wife of the Ebonyi State governor’s wife, Chief (Mrs) Rachel Umahi, the Grand Patron of the AGC Ladies has pledged to always support the ladies to grow the game bigger and better in the state.
All said and weighed, the ball is now in the court of the AGC Ladies on how far they can go in leveraging on the opportunities now before then in the development of women golf, just as Enene Fonne has set the pace on an interesting pedestal; who can make a difference?!

Part two of a two-part series (Access part one):
Cloud computing is not just on the healthcare horizon. Partial and pure-play cloud computing architectures are already serving healthcare information technology needs in the U.S.
Denver Health uses outsourced IT for a majority of its applications. Its service provider is Siemens, whose services meet most—but not all—of the essential characteristics in a definition of cloud computing released this summer by the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
And while outsourcing dominates at Denver Health, it is not exclusive.
“I still have 158 people in my shop even though 70% of our applications are outsourced,” said Denver Health Chief Information Officer Gregory Veltri. For example, Denver runs its cardiology and radiology systems on-site, but “all of our primary Siemens applications are outsourced.” That includes nurse documentation and speed-sensitive computerized physician order entry, which are run out of the Siemens data center in Malvern, Pa. But Veltri said it may be a long time before hospitals move to a pure cloud environment.
“Will I see it in my lifetime?” Veltri said, pausing. “Healthcare is very slow to change.”
For some healthcare uses, cloud time is already here.
Vincent Fusaro holds a doctorate in bioinformatics from Boston University. He is working on a post-doctoral National Library of Medicine fellowship from the Laboratory for Personalized Medicine within the Center for Biomedical Informatics at Harvard Medical School.
For just over a year, aside from some programming initially conducted on personal computers, Fusaro said the laboratory is running “entirely on the cloud.” It uses computational services and storage provided by Amazon Web Services. Since 2006, the Amazon business division has leveraged the IT investments of the online bookseller and retailer by leasing portions of its infrastructure to outsiders.
“We don't have any complaints,” Fusaro said. “We are mapping whole genomes. We take the DNA sequencing and map them to reference genomes to sequence an entire person. We're using clusters of these services to do that.”
Physician informaticist David Kibbe, a senior adviser on IT issues to the American Academy of Family Physicians and principal of the healthcare IT consultancy the Kibbe Group, said cloud computing will catalyze a cadre of new healthcare IT entrepreneurs.
“I think that probably Google, Microsoft, Salesforce.com, all of these companies that have this architecture, will be ready if there is in fact a demand for what I'm calling 'clinical groupware' that make EHR technology possible from a mix-and-match, plug-and-play sort of way,” Kibbe said. A company could compile and offer physicians only those few Web-based services—electronic prescribing, diseases registries, patient summary sharing and the like—necessary to meet the yet-to-be-defined “meaningful use” requirements to access an estimated $34 billion in EHR subsidies under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.
Alfred Spector, vice president of research and special initiatives at Google, also said the cloud-based Google Health personal health-record platform will likely play a role in providers meeting the “meaningful use” criteria under the stimulus law.
“From the Google Health situation, we've gone off to produce a personal healthcare record and associated search and other services that are valuable to the consumer,” Spector said. “We do think that as an important use case that does represent a meaningful use. We really believe that if information is created, stored and aggregated at our physician groups and then is made available to consumers, this is meaningful use.”
Google Health recently added an application to its PHR platform to store digitized clinical images, but for now, Google has no plans to build an EHR or even a collection of services to meet all provider requirements under meaningful use, once an interim definition is produced by the CMS later this year.
“Never say never about anything, but that's not our focus,” Spector said. “We're consumer-facing.”
Spector, like others contacted for this story, sees cloud computing making incremental inroads into the realm of healthcare IT, but not giant leaps.
The Google paradigm of “launch early and launch often” is viable in healthcare, Spector said. Adding digital images more than a year after the Google Health platform was launched is an example. “We didn't have time to do that initially. If we had waited to do everything, we would have done nothing.
Scott Shreeve is a physician and a co-founder of Medsphere Systems Corp., a developer of clinical IT systems based on the Veterans Affairs Department's VistA EHR. Shreeve, no longer with Medsphere, is the founder of a healthcare IT consultancy, Crossover Health. He writes about Health 2.0 on a blog by the same name.
The pioneers at Shared Medical Systems Corp., or SMS, “were geniuses,” Shreeve said. “They were way ahead of their time.” The problem was, Shreeve said, they were so far ahead “it took the infrastructure 20 years to catch up with their concept. Dial-up doesn't work to use cloud computing, or DSL. It's way to slow. That was the problem with SMS; it was technically constrained back in the day, but philosophically, they were correct.”
Today, with high-speed fiber-optic lines, “the Internet removes time, location and physical constraints,” Shreeve said. “Once you start to remove those three barriers with this new way to communicate, it opens up tremendous possibilities. That leads us to cloud computing. I don't need physical services. I don't need dedicated work stations; all I need is access to the cloud.”
One likely early inroad for cloud computing in healthcare is the IT market for smaller practices of office-based physicians, thus far a veritable Death Valley for EHR vendors' sales forces. Numerous studies of EHR adoption have found a direct relationship between practice size and EHR uptake—the smaller the practice, the lower the EHR use. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey, that's a lot of doctors. The 2008 survey report, based on 2005-06 data, said 49% of 309,000 office-based physicians work in either solo (37%) or two-doctor (12%) practices. Another 28% were in practices of three to five physicians.
When it passed the stimulus act, Congress included several more stringent privacy provisions
, including several taking direct aim at vendors of PHR systems, cloud-based on not. The new law sought to place PHR vendors under the same privacy and security rules as hospitals and office-based physicians and other so-called “covered entities” pursuant to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996. Google and Microsoft Corp. have expressed varying degrees of reluctance
toward acknowledging their PHR operations have HIPAA obligations.
In March, the San Francisco-based Electronic Privacy Information Center, or EPIC, filed a 15-page complaint
with the Federal Trade Commission seeking an injunction against Google's cloud computing operations, alleging it “does not adequately safeguard the confidential information that it obtains.” The FTC responded in a letter the next day, requesting a meeting with EPIC, but cited its policy that it could neither confirm nor deny it was conducting an investigation of the allegations in the complaint.
The EPIC complaint said, “The recent growth of cloud computing services signals an unprecedented shift of personal information from computers controlled by individuals to networks administered by corporations. Data breaches concerning cloud computing services can result in great harm, which arises from the centralized nature of the services and large volume of information stored ‘in the cloud.' "
Spector declined to comment about the specifics of the EPIC complaint, but was willing to make a general comment that organizations that specialize in IT do far better in terms of security and privacy than organizations “that specialize in other things.”
Privacy advocate Deborah Peel said renting servers and storing healthcare information in large “ultra-secure facilities,” typical of cloud computing operations, “has always made sense to me. Servers in closets are going to go the way of dinosaurs. They just have to.”
But to allow a company to move healthcare data around a cloud “anywhere in the world is going to be a nightmare,” said Peel, a psychiatrist and the founder of the Austin, Texas-based Patient Privacy Rights Foundation.
“Where are the servers? If data is moved among various facilities, who certifies security among them? You get into the weakest link problem,” which, she said, might also include legal issues if the data is stored in a country with weaker privacy standards than the U.S. Not that the U.S. is a global paragon for privacy rights, according to Peel. “It's kind of ironic to say they ought to be in the U.S., because the U.S. may not be the best place in the world, but it has to start somewhere,” she said.
In fact, one deterrent to embracing cloud computing in Canada is the U.S. legal framework since passage of the Patriot Act, according to Prateek Dwivedi, vice president and CIO of Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto. Broad surveillance powers granted to the U.S. government
—including the authority to force open medical records of foreign healthcare organizations kept by foreign subsidiaries of U.S. IT companies, became a cause celebre up north in 2004.
Dwivedi said the hospital's IT vendor could outsource all of his IT operations, but, “It's hosted in the States and because of the Patriot Act, the U.S. government is allowed to open up the data files for any reason. So, for us, legal boundaries prevent us from participating in cloud computing.”
Last week, Practice Fusion, a San Francisco-based developer of cloud-based EHR systems, announced it would launch a PHR using cloud computing infrastructure
from Force.com, an arm of customer resource management software developer Salesforce.com, San Francisco, and that Salesforce was investing an undisclosed amount in Practice Fusion.
David Brailer heads Health Evolution Partners, a San Francisco-based venture capital firm that has invested in three companies—two in teleradiology and one in e-prescribing—although none of them boasts on its Web site of being cloud-based companies, Brailer said. Right now, a shortage of bankable business models, resistance to change and the credit crunch are all bigger obstacles to cloud computing in healthcare than the state of the technology, he said.
“Technically, it's ready to go,” Brailer said. “Another word for cloud computing is hardware neutral. It's detaching the hardware from the applications and the content. There are some initiatives like Dossia that's based on the same idea. Microsoft HealthVault is based on the same idea.
“Some people may not want it because they want to control the hardware,” Brailer said. “They may fear having a service online. But, in general you're going to see a segment of hospitals, pharma and payers that are very pro cloud computing just as you will see those who are against it.”
At the moment though, the entrepreneurial cloud-computing movement faces a very tight capital market, Brailer said.
“The question is: Will you see a generation of applications emerging, and when will you see them emerge that offer the capabilities of cloud computing? I think it will take a while. A lot of innovative companies have been denied risk capital. There are a lot fewer investors and nobody can raise debt. It's a really tough time out there for companies that have good ideas but are not proven or not profitable.”
Mike Davis is executive vice president of HIMSS Analytics, the market research arm of the Chicago-based Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society.
“Cloud computing was talked about in the early 1990s, and the reason it didn't take off was because the Internet wasn't there yet,” Davis said. Now, he said, “There is a lot of capacity out there, so if it does bring down costs, yahoo.” But, Davis said, “Privacy and security and patient identification, those are going to be the biggest questions.” A lack of standardization in healthcare transactions and medical vocabulary also are barriers, he said.
Davis said he sees physician offices, disease management companies, and health information exchanges as likely early beachheads for cloud computing in healthcare. “For the hospitals, I think we're at least five years away before we start seeing this in anything other than the advanced medical centers.”
Don Grodecki, chief technology officer of Browsersoft, Shawnee Mission, Kan., a vendor of open-source software for regional health information exchanges, agrees. Clouds are still on the horizon in healthcare, particularly in systems used in direct patient care.
“Everyone I've talked to in the healthcare area is spooked by the idea that they don't know where their computer is; they don't know where their data is,” Grodecki said. “The healthcare industry is way far behind everyone else, and so, it's going to be a long time before hospitals put their information in the cloud.” Grodecki has worked in cutting-edge technology for Hughes Aircraft Co. and the space shuttle for Kodak. His company's computers are located in a giant data warehouse run by GreenSoft Solutions near the Kansas City (Mo.) International Airport. “We're not using the cloud at this time," Grodecki said. “We typically use separate machines for HIEs. Some of them are owned by the HIE and housed there and others are on machines leased from GSI.”
“There are HIPAA regulations we have to follow that are pretty stringent,” Grodecki said. “It would be hard to do that on a public network when you don't even know what machines it will be running on from time to time. Eventually, people will work out all of those issues and know how to certify that things are secure and private on a public cloud, but we're quite a ways from that now.”

Evaluation of Parent Intervention for Challenging Behaviour in Children with Intellectual Disabilities (EPICC-ID)
Stepping Stones Triple P (SSTP) is an intervention for parents of children with intellectual disabilities and challenging behaviour. It provides parents with information and support about how to manage such behaviours in their child. Previous efficacy trials outside of the UK have found encouraging results that SSTP can reduce challenging behaviour in children with intellectual disabilities.
The EPICC-ID study is evaluating the clinical and cost effectiveness of the SSTP parenting group in pre-school children (aged 30-59 months) with a moderate to severe intellectual disability in the UK. Trained therapists follow a manual and deliver the intervention in groups of 5-7 parents for 5 weeks, followed by 3 individual sessions and a final group meeting. Northumberland Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust is one of four sites across the UK running the study.
Who can take part?
- Parents aged18 years or over
- Child 30 to 59 months old at identification
- Child has moderate to severe intellectual disability (screened with parent reported Adaptive Behaviour Assessment System (ABAS; General Adaptive Composite 40-69)
- Parent report of challenging behaviour maintained over no less than 2 months
- Child must not have sibling enrolled in another parenting study

Distributed switching is often used in telephone networks, though it is often called host-remote switching.
In rural areas, population centers tend to be too small for economical deployment of a full-featured dedicated telephone exchange, and distances between these centers make transmission costs relatively high. Normal telephone traffic patterns show that most calling is done between people in a community of interest, in this case a geographical one: the population center. Use of distributed switching allows for the majority of calls that are local to that population center to be switched there without needing to be transported to and from the host switch.
The host switch provides connectivity between the remote switches and to the larger network, and the host may also directly handle some rare and complex call types (conference calling, for example) that the remote itself is not equipped to handle. Host switches also perform OAM&P (Operation, Administration, Maintenance, and Provisioning) functions, including billing, for the entire cluster of the host and its remote switches.
A key capability of a remote switch is the ability to act in emergency standalone (ESA) mode, wherein local calls can still be placed even in the event that the connection between that remote and the host has been lost. In this mode, only local calling is available anyway, so the billing capability of the host switch is not required. ESA is increasingly available on digital loop carrier platforms as well as on purpose-built remote switches in order to improve the scope of their utility.
Use within telecommunications equipment platforms
Many data-centric telecommunications platforms such as routers and Ethernet switches utilize distributed switching on separate cards within an equipment chassis. Even when this is used, it is common to have a centralized switching fabric to interconnect the distributed switches. This architecture has become less common as backplane bus speeds and centralized switch fabric capacities have increased.

The Supreme Court on Wednesday has stayed all proceedings against both the journalists of HW News, Samriddhi Sakunia and Swarna Jha, who had been booked by the Tripura Police for reporting on the communal violence in the state, last month.
Issuing a notice on a writ petition challenging the FIRs filed by the Tripura Police over the reports, the Top Court sought a response from the state government, LiveLaw reported. Four weeks’ time has been granted for filing of the counter-affidavit, Bar and Bench reported.
On November 14, the women journalists were named in two FIRs filed by police for “spreading communal disharmony” following their reporting on the communal violence in the North-Eastern state. Prior to that, they had been also detained by Assam’s Karimganj district police station, where they were held for three-and-a-half hours before Tripura Police arrived to arrest them. The duo, however, were granted bail on 15 November.
They had been booked under sections 120(B) (criminal conspiracy), 153(A) (Promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion), and 504 (intentional insult) of the Indian Penal Code.
Local Vishwa Hindu Parishad leader Kanchan Das filed an FIR, alleging that the journos “delivered instigating speech against Hindu(s)” while they visited Fatikroy Constituency’s Paul Bazaar area.
He also accused Sakunia and Jha of being a part of a “criminal conspiracy” and blamed them for using VHP and Bajrang Dal’s name for damaging a mosque in the area.

Disco, funk, soul, jazz, rock, salsa, ballroom, electro-funk, rap, house, techno. All were (in addition to countless more I can’t be arsed to try and classify) members of the discotheque dance floor family, and all played a part in – and were in turn influenced by – the development of one of the most unique, ever-evolving and influential genres in history. The disco phenomenon remained at the forefront of the music business right up until the mid 80s when nightclubs began to sway more towards electronically produced music; more suitable for endless hours of emotionless dancing, substance abuse, bright lights, big rooms, and bad hair. And even then, some of the most popular club music focused heavily on the sampling or remixing of music from the disco era – a technique still very much in practice today, proving the timeless worth of a lot of the music developed in that period of passionate music making. Enough rambling!
I’ve compiled a list! A long list! A fucking long list! Of chart-toppers – ’69 through ’89, all for your listening pleasure. I hope you like it. It only took 6 days… Though this is by no means the supreme, ultimate or quintessential disco play-list. On the contrary, it’s a mere fraction of the genre’s catalogue. But what we have here is a collection (947 tracks, I think) of songs from several ‘best ever’ compilations, online polls, vintage charts and a myriad- nay, plethora of recommendations and secret weapons. It’s almost larger than, though not including the entirety of my personal collection. This is disco 101. Hits, tunes, crackers, stompers and fist-pumpers. Classic bangers and corporate bullshit – all of which achieved considerable commercial success and most of which will bring a smile to your dial: while the others leave you in awe of the glorious tragedy that was the disco era. Bookmark, visit from time to time, browse, find something worth holding on to – I know I have. I hope I’ve not left you empty-minded. But as not to leave you empty handed, I have a treat that I am very excited to give you! Creep Crawl Flash: Jacques Christo & Vladimir Christov. Fusing with hip-hop beats, samples from a long forgotten and nostalgia inducing sound that I can’t even describe but say that it makes me feel someplace and somewhen else. Their follow-up EP ‘Abroad’ is currently available for free download along with their other released material. And I’ve had it all on repeat for three days.

Apparently Todd Richards impressed Blue Jackets brass.
Aaron Portzline of The Columbus Dispatch reports the Jackets have dropped the interim tag on Richards’ position with the team and hired him on full-time to a two-year deal to coach the team. As Portzline notes, the Blue Jackets got to be a better late-game team under Richards than they were with previous head coach Scott Arniel.
Still, the Jackets went 18-21-2 under Richards. That includes an 11-8-0 record after March 1 and wins in five of their last six games, as the Jackets embraced the role of playoff spoiler down the stretch. One of the biggest struggles under Arniel was holding onto leads in the third period, but the Jackets went 14-0 under Richards when they led after 40 minutes.
That record isn’t exactly glowing but given how bad and downtrodden the team was with Arniel, Richards is a veritable miracle worker in comparison. The Jackets will now be on the hunt for a new assistant coach or two for Richards to have help out. One thing Richards won’t have yet is certainty on just who he’ll be coaching next season.
With Rick Nash rumors sure to fly again this summer as well as GM Scott Howson’s insistence that things change in goal, Richards will potentially have a lot of molding to do when training camp opens in September.

Celiac.com 07/01/2006 - With the likelihood that increased intestinal permeability in celiacs caused by gluten damage to the intestinal mucosa leads to a high prevalance of liver damage as well as an increase in food allergy and possible other medical conditions, emphasis on healing the intestinal mucosa should be given an elevated priority. Simply going on a gluten-free diet and waiting months or years for the intestine to heal may not be enough.
probiotic capsules, do help diminish the amount of endotoxins released by pathogenic gut bacteria getting through the barrier. Liver disease studies confirm the benefit of probiotics by reducing inflammation and infection. However, to date, there is no product currently available which can enhance the repair and regeneration process of the mucosal epithelia.
Undergoing current clinical studies in Crohns patients, Teduglutide may enhance mucosal healing, but requires multiple daily injections:

New Crohns Disease Drug Induces Remission Through Mucosal Healing

A while back I posted an abstract about a protein called R-spondin1 which is "a specific and potent stimulator of the human epithelial cells that line the gastrointestinal tract and mouth." R-spondin1 is a product being developed by Nuvelo, Inc. of San Carlos, CA designated as NU206. The press release describing NU206 is:
Nuvelo Announces NU206 Publication in Science (August 18, 2005)
An article discussing the discovery and potentials of R-spondin1 is available in the New England Journal of Medicine, and free full text of
that article is available at the address below:

Free Full Text Reprint of NEJM article:
Nuvelo has recently announced plans for the "initiation of a Phase 1 study of NU206, which is being developed for the treatment of cancer therapy-induced mucositis in the second half of 2006." Obviously the benefits of NU206 go beyond that of cancer therapy. Healing the epithelial tissues of celiacs with NU206 may rapidly eliminate increased intestinal permeability and other associated conditions. Nuvelo had a live webcast of its annual shareholder meeting this Wednesday, May 24, at 11:00 am PDT. No new information on NU206 was provided at the meeting other than that plans to initiate the NU206 Phase 1 study are proceding.

Amino acids are the building blocks of protein – and thus of life. But how exactly do they work in the organism? We go in search of scientifically based answers.
Effect in the body: amino acids
There is no doubt that an adequate supply of protein is vital. After all, we are made up of 17 percent protein. These in turn are made up of different amino acids, all of which fulfill specific tasks in the body. In particular, the effects of essential amino acids are being intensively researched. Since the organism cannot form them itself, deficiencies can become seriously noticeable. To what extent an insufficient supply of certain amino acids is involved in the development of diseases and how many of the building blocks we actually need is a vehement debate among scientists. Some advocate a high protein intake, others warn that too much protein in the diet can be harmful.
The effect of amino acids is difficult to measure
Anyone who has no health problems, feels completely at ease and is not exposed to high levels of physical stress at work or in their leisure time probably does not need to worry about their protein intake. The situation is different if you notice certain deficits such as hair loss, depression, migraines or muscle problems. Amino acids can have a positive effect here if there is a deficiency. An aminogram, the measurement of the amino acid concentrations in the blood, can provide clarity if necessary. However, the statutory health insurance companies do not bear the costs due to the disputed benefits. It is difficult to prove how many amino acids are effective in hair loss and whether arginine promotes muscle growth, especially since other nutrients also play a role.
Essential amino acids and their effects
However, the lack of detectability does not mean that there is no effect of amino acids. Their fundamental contribution to certain bodily functions is a fact. These include, among other things:
- Isoleucine: energy production in the muscle cells
- Leucine: Maintains and builds muscle tissue
- Lysine: muscle building, bone growth, cell division, wound healing
- Methionine: muscle building
- Phenylalanine: nitrogen metabolism
- Threonine: energy production
- Tryptophan: protein structure, precursor of messenger substances, provitamin for vitamin B3
- Valine: protein biosynthesis, energy production
This list of the effects of amino acids is not complete, because many functions have not yet been sufficiently researched. A dietary supplement should be carefully considered, since the effect of amino acid capsules on muscle building is a complex matter. Too many amino acids can also have negative effects. And with kidney and liver diseases, a low-protein diet is often indicated.
