I must say I was skeptical about trying this product. Having tried other nutritional shakes I was expecting this to taste like metallic sludge. But not so, these shakes are delicious and filling. I will definitely make these a permanent staple in my eating plan.
Glucerna Hunger Shake
This is a good product for diabetics. It helps control hunger, is great tasting and doesn't raise blood sugar. The price is also satisfactory.
Great shake ever!
Glucerna hungersmart rich choc shake tastes great and is unbeatable. Could not ask for more. I'm gonna stick to this one…
Hunger Smart Shake
I tryed this shake and I have to say.I love it, The best ever. I work at night and I wanted something that will control late night snacking. I feel full I don't feel like I'm missing anything. The best part of it is, it don't raise your blood sugar. The vanilla and chocolate both are good. only wish they would make it in strawberry aswell.
An advancement over older nutritional shakes, chocolate flavor a bit strong
This Glucerna Hunger Smart Shake has the same kind of nutrition and similar protein to the more traditional Ensure or Boost type of liquid nutrition but significantly fewer calores (180 per 11.8 oz. bottle, and what there are, are supposed to spike blood-sugar levels more slowly). The bottles chill nicely and fit the hand well but each bottle top is encased in a hard plastic peelaway band as a barrier, a sensible precaution but a bit of a nuisance to remove. I notice the Glucerna people have styled the chocolate flavor "Rich" although better designations might be "Deep" or even "Dark." I am more of a milk-chocolate lover and usually tone down this product with a little cold regular milk. (As of right now, the only flavors available are this "Rich" chocolate and vanilla.)
As of the time of this writing, the Amazon price is much better than I can do at my local pharmacy. In my experience this excels over other similar products, even "regular" Glucerna. It is aimed at diabetics but may find use with other people who simply want to keep the calories down; so in my opinion Glucerna Hunger Smart shakes are well worth trying. Perhaps if this product is successful the good folks at Abbott, the parent company, will introduce more flavors.
Almost Perfect – Tastes Good but Filling?
I have been a Type 1 Diabetic for over 38 years. My blood sugars run pretty stable (between 70 and 140) and I don't have any other health concerns. The issue I came across recently was hitting the big "40" and trying to control diet with some weight gain. For the past 14 weeks I have been on a pretty caloric strict diet and ran into the "diet wall". Many suggestions were to increase my protein intake, especially in the morning. Great idea but how many eggs can you really eat? I'm not a huge fan of meat though will indulge in some chicken and such so I went on the hunt for some kind of easy, high protein breakfast. With a high demand job and running around, easy is the only thing I can work in successfully. Saw the commercials for these shakes and took the chocolate home to try. Needless to say, VERY TASTY! They do seem to be a little pricey but the chocolate is yummy and if the protein amount is accurate, it is almost perfect. ALMOST because the claim is "slow digestable carbs" or "carb steady" for which I had high hopes. I had only taken 6 units of insulin and my trusty shake but 2 hours later and my blood sugar was 80 (it had been 113 before I left). Too low to leave as/is because by lunch, it would be around 50. I will continue with the shakes (maybe try other flavors) but will have to either add something or reduce the insulin. 1200 calories a day is not as easy as it seems ya know?
Had to add a few tips for those that may be in a similar situation. To stick with the diet and around 1200 calories a day along with the amount of insulin, I changed it up so that in the morning I only take about 4 units of Novolog (I use Levemir at night which is 24 hours) and drink the Glucerna shake. I added a small veggie/fruit tray of carrots, tomatoes, broccoli and a small cup of ranch dressing. Walmart sells these tiny trays for 1.99 and are perfect for anytime. Total calories 150 (give or take a few since I never finish the veggies) and combined with the Glucerna shake of 180 it gives me a breakfast of 330 calories. Turns out, this was PERFECT for blood sugars with a bonus of giving me a little extra "pep". For lunch, I usually do another veggie tray and a small fruit tray of apples/grapes and a little cheddar cheese for 170 calories and a total of 320 calories. I also take another 6 units of Novolog. Dinner is a variety of options like homemade mini-frittatas or homemade chili with everything low fat and around the 400 calorie mark or less. To switch it up, I may add a shake to lunch and replace the fruit or possibly dinner.
One more short update 04/01/2013:
Just another remark about the flavor. The rich chocolate especially is too-die-for delicious! It does not taste like a diet shake at all. Kind of like a rich, chocolatey, chocolate milk. The vanilla is good too but the rich chocolate is too good to pass up. The shakes have become my breakfast of choice. If you do decide to try these, be vigilant with the dose of insulin if on injections. No clue how a Type II would manage these if taking pills though I assume the low impact would be good for them as well.
I was originally introduced to this product by my husband who is a diabetic and uses Glucerna as a between-meal snack. I don't have diabetes but I found this product so tasty that I now use it as a snack myself or as a fast lunch when I don't have time to prepare anything else. It's great that this sort of drink not only tastes good but is very nutritious as well.
Super for my glucose control!
These drinks are wonderful in helping the control of my glucose levels especially in the morning when I wake up. If I drink one before I go to bed it helps keep me from hitting rock bottom in the middle of the night while I am sleeping. I am set up on the subscription delivery service which is also great that way I don't have to worry about running out, they come to me every 30 days. You can set your own delivery schedule and also how many pack you want delivered each month. Amazon offers a lot of great deals on the subscription delivery service, you should check them out if there is something you need or want to get on a recurring basis. I also get my husband's Slim Fast on the same delivery set up.
It tastes like any diet shake but it doesn't spike my sugar and curbs my craving for chocolate. Not cheap but worth it.
Great taste and convenient!
After the original product I used changed their formula I searched for months and spent alot of $$$ looking for a replacement. I was very happy to find this product. Not only did it meet my high expectations for taste it's premixed for easy use. I'm very particular about taste and feel and the flavor. I use it as my breakfast drink and it keeps me hunger free for about 3-4 hours. I keep it in the refrigerator since I prefer it cold and many times I'll put it in the freezer for an hour or so to get it really cold or even a bit longer to end up with a milk shake. I love that I have this on Amazon autoship and don't have to worry about running out. It definitely helps to keep my blood sugar where it should be in the morning!


Post:Ballet’s ‘Do Be’ does something new
When choreographer Robert Dekkers founded Post:Ballet in 2010, he wanted to take ballet beyond expectations. If he has bent the rules through high-concept collaborations with composers, painters and sculptors, he’s breaking them now with “Do Be,” Post:Ballet’s first evening-length work, premiering Thursday, Aug. 4, at Z Space.
Audiences may recognize the components: “Pasturing,” “Family,” “Tassel,” “Double Happiness” and “The Bell, the Ball, the Bow-Tie & the Boot” have premiered individually over the past three years. But no one has seen them like this — sequenced in an abstract narrative, performed in an otherworldly atmosphere and embellished with cuisine, retro-futurist notions and sensory surprises.
“Do Be” has taken Dekkers and his co-creators into ambitious new territory, and they are enthralled by the adventure. In a series of interviews, they revealed their inspirations, inventions and delight in doing and being together.
Music: The Living Earth Show
Manifesto: “We play classical music on the wrong instruments,” says Meyerson.
To wit: “I’m doing strictly guitar,” says Andrews, 32. “In ‘Pasturing,’ Andy breaks porcelain and glass. And there’s vibraphone, cymbals, mixed percussion. He’s going to be much more entertaining than me.”
As written: “‘Pasturing’ is notated the exact same way that (Cooper) would notate a string quartet,” says Meyerson, 30. “If you’re looking at the score, a violinist would play a G. But to me, it means ‘Smash this cup.’”
Costumes: Christian Squires
The 30-year-old danced in the original “Do Be” pieces, but this time is playing a backstage role as designer of the costumes and 1970s-inspired sets.
Togs of future past: “My Pinterest board was Catholic garb and a circus-clown outfit and black-and-white Gothic clothing,” he says, adding wryly, “I think what’s going to make it cohesive is the randomness of everything.”
Desert vision: A Burning Man devotee, Squires takes inspiration from “seeing this tribe that comes together and creates all this beautiful art. Everyone is walking around in clothing that is curated or made.”
Lobby installation: Dennis Aman
The experimental composer and instrument maker built four “vertical fretless Appalachian dulcimers” for the audience to play.
Made to order: Aman, 45, describes his 8-foot-tall, 16-string creations as “a variant of Ivor Darreg’s Megalyra — a cross between a guitar and a pillar, made of wood and recycled car parts. They’re all tuned differently, but they’re tuned harmoniously to each other.”
In addition, “in the center (of each instrument) is a block of gelatin with an LED behind it. Based on how close an audience member gets to it, it changes color and changes sound, like a theremin.”
Using a light hand: “There’s all of this metaphor going on, and all this visual information, so the most successful approach is to keep it clean,” says French, 39. “Robert has talked about conceiving some kind of cycle of daylight throughout the piece. Those kinds of frameworks are really fun to work with.”
Video design: Robby Gilson
An architect at San Francisco’s Macy Architects, Gilson created abstract projections to embellish “The Bell, the Ball, the Bow-Tie & the Boot.”
Perspective: “There are a lot of similarities between ballet and architecture,” observes Gilson, 30. “We’re both dealing with bodies moving through space.”
Force field: “Bodies exert energy on the space around them. Most of my role in working with Robert was indexing what those forces look like. The projection is largely composed of lines and small volumes and shapes; if a body moves across this field, the dots move, and you can see the force that was once invisible.”
Cuisine: Brenden Blaine Darby
Former chef at Manresa, Copenhagen’s Noma and three-Michelin-star Restaurante Martín Berasategui in Spain.
Food for thought: “Instead of just watching and listening, Robert really wants everybody to feel as much as possible,” says Darby, 25. “They’ll be able to pick up their snacks and experience those flavors and textures while the show is happening.”
On the menu: Snack packs with freeze-dried berries and purple lemon popcorn. Appetizers include cured egg yolks and mushroom fried moss on a string. There will be a birthday cake at intermission.
Choreography: Robert Dekkers
Dekkers, 31, has adapted the sections of “Do Be” to suit dancers Cora Cliburn, Rachel Coats, Aidan DeYoung, Ashley Flaner, Charlie Martin, Gabriel Mata, Jackie McConnell, Vanessa Thiessen and Karell Williams, and crafted a new ending.
Open ended: For the finale, “I’m creating a trio where two people are bringing in movement from ‘Double Happiness,’ and the other person has phrase work that’s completely different from anything that’s been in the show. I don’t want to wrap everything in a bow. It has growth and a trajectory, but also there’s all this space ahead of it.”
Feel the burn: “I’ve been influenced by my experiences at Burning Man and other festivals, where the whole thing is the experience. We want to encourage everyone to dress up and wear whatever makes you feel fun and fabulous and yourself. My idea is that it will kind of create an energy — are you in the show?”
The heart of the matter: “‘Do Be’ is like life. … It’s this realization that life doesn’t always add up to be what we thought it would be, or look how we expect it to look. If we let go of expectations and appreciate it for what it is, it’s so vastly more enjoyable and beautiful and mind-blowing.”
Claudia Bauer is a Bay Area freelance writer. Twitter: @speakingofdance
Do Be: 8 p.m. Thursday-Saturday, Aug. 4-6. Z Space, 450 Florida St., S.F. $35-$55. www.postballet.org


Stylish grilling fun: sociable hours with family, friends and relatives
Space saving: thanks to foldable frame construction
High quality material: EasyGrill Concept with 44 x 34 cm (LxW) large grill plate with non-stick coating
Let the sizzling fun begin: enjoy a mobile gourmet meal for the whole family with the foldable Klarstein Tafelspitz electric grill.
The Klarstein Tafelspitz electric grill convinces above all with its space-saving folding construction. By removing a safety hook and a simple handle, the entire frame can be folded in no time at all. With the help of two robust wheels, the grill can be conveniently pulled to the desired location and set up by lifting the basic construction and inserting the side table. Thanks to the electric grill function, the Tafelspitz does away with the ash, soot and smoke of charcoal grills, and also eliminates the need for hauling gas bottles. An approximately three-metre-long power cord reliably supplies the grill with electricity, while a convenient temperature control ensures the desired heat. For the EasyGrill Concept, the 44 x 34 cm (LxW) grill plate with non-stick coating is particularly important: it is easy to clean and can be heated very quickly thanks to an integrated heating element. The grease tray can be removed at any time without lifting the grill plate to dispose of excess oil and grease. Two side tables also serve as useful surfaces for the placement of necessary grill accessories and already-cooked grilled food.
Full of energy: thanks to the folding construction and two robust wheels for mobility, the Klarstein Tafelspitz electric grill makes food preparation and grilling easy and fun.

Snow Removal Law Not A Done Deal
Bureaucracy. Ya gotta love it.
The City of Plattsburgh has been pushing a new law requiring a property owner to clear snow from sidewalks adjacent to his land. But the law won’t be in effect until the Department of State verifies and files it. This is supposed to happen in a couple of weeks.
I won’t be surprised if it takes longer. After all, it’s the end of the year, the holiday season and all that crap. And maybe the Department of State can’t rubber stamp the law until it’s reviewed by the State Department. And maybe the State Department is required to kick it over to the United Nations…
And take note: if the new law is passed, it will be “complaint driven.” When addressing the problem during his reign, former mayor Dan Stewart claimed that Public Works would “scour” the city to search and destroy – I mean clear – any unshoveled sidewalks. Then the scofflaws would be billed.
It doesn’t work that way with the proposed law. You, John or Jane Q. Public, have to call and report violations to either Public Works or the Building Inspectors office. Apparently city employees are too visually impaired to notice snow piled along a stretch of sidewalk. Their unfortunate condition must be the result of snow blindness.
So, as a public service, here’s the contact info to file a complaint:
Richard Perry, Supervisor
41 City Hall Place
Mike Brodi, Superintendent of Public Works & Recreation
215 Idaho Ave
And as far as I know, you don’t have to ID yourself when making a complaint. So there’s no reason not to write or call to turn in a scofflaw.
Unless you’re suddenly struck by snow blindness.

When putting together a system using RF switching relays, Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA) and RF power it’s important that things are switched at the right time and in the correct sequence. This ensures that the relays do not actually switch with RF present (hot-switching) and sensitive LNAs are not damaged due to excessive input levels. The sequencer ensures that the relay has time to switch contacts before RF power is applied and things are in the correct state before the next event occurs.
My 144MHz EME system uses a W6PQL based sequencer which has worked very well over a number of years. A new sequencer was needed for my 10 GHz system. I decided to investigate the use of an Arduino to control the switching from receive to transmit (RX > TX) and then transmit back to receive (TX > RX) .
The photo above shows the end result of my sequencer project. Once again there’s nothing particularly new in what I’m describing here as far as the use of an Arduino and a simple Sketch. A quick search online will show a number of Arduino based sequencer projects. What may be of interest here, is the simple hardware used and ideas behind the construction that in its simplest form uses two modules (Arduino + Shield) and a 10k resistor.
The heart of the sequencer is an Arduino UNO and a four relay board (Shield) that fits directly onto the Arduino. The use of this Shield simplifies the overall construction and provides four switched events. The Arduino and Shield operate from either 5V via the onboard USB socket or 7 – 20V (ideally max 12V) via the power socket / Vin connector. As my 10 GHz setup uses 12V / 28V I included an additional regulator so that the small onboard regulator on the Arduino board runs with only 9V input and doesn’t run too hot. To ensure that the Arduino was not affected by any strong RF signals and also that any harmonics (noise) from the Arduino clock (16MHz) were kept to an absolute minimum all the power and switch lines are via feed-through capacitors. The complete set of parts fit nicely into a Hammond die-cast box.
Each of the four relays can switch from either a Normally Open (NO) or Normally Closed (NC) state when going from (RX > TX) or (TX > RX).
The sequencer is activated by grounding a control pin (A0) on the Arduino by either pressing the microphone PTT switch, pressing a foot-switch or in the case of PC based software via a serial controlled switch. This pin needs a resistor (10k) to PullUp when in the RX state.

Hum. Mol. Genet. 2011 Nov;20(22):4462-74
The RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs)–RIG-I, IFIH1 (or MDA5) and LGP2–are thought to be key actors in the innate immune system, as they play a major role in sensing RNA viruses in the cytosol of host cells. Despite the increasingly recognized importance of the RLR family in antiviral immunity, no population genetic studies have yet attempted to compare the evolutionary history of its different members in humans. Here, we characterized the levels of naturally occurring genetic variation in the RLRs in a panel of individuals of different ethnic origins, to assess to what extent natural selection has acted on this family of microbial sensors. Our results show that amino acid-altering variation at RIG-I, particularly in the helicase domain, has been under stronger evolutionary constraint than that at IFIH1 and LGP2, reflecting an important role for RIG-I in sensing numerous RNA viruses and/or functional constraints related to the binding of viral substrates. Such evolutionary constraints have been much more relaxed at IFIH1 and LGP2, which appear to have evolved adaptively in specific human populations. Notably, we identified several mutations showing signatures of positive selection, including two non-synonymous polymorphisms in IFIH1 (R460H and R843H) and one in LGP2 (Q425R), suggesting a selective advantage related to the sensing of RNA viruses by IFIH and to the regulatory functions of LGP2. In light of the fact that some of these mutations have been associated with altered risks of developing autoimmune disorders, our study provides an additional example of the evolutionary conflict between infection and autoimmunity.

The Chief Constable has called for police powers to detain people in Northern Ireland suspected of having coronavirus.
Simon Byrne made the comments yesterday as an older patient with underlying health conditions in England became the first person in the UK to die from the virus.
A total of 115 other cases have now been confirmed in the UK including three in Northern Ireland, with a further six cases confirmed in the Republic.
UK health officials have moved to the second phase of their strategy, from 'containment' to 'delay' which aims to slow the spread.
Detention powers are already available in England and Wales, allowing police and public health professionals to detain and direct individuals to quarantined areas if they are at risk of having or spreading the virus.
In Scotland, health boards can also restrict the movements of those at risk and apply for a court order for quarantine and medical examination.
Similar powers are available to the Public Health Agency in Northern Ireland, but not to the PSNI at present.
Speaking at a meeting of the Policing Board yesterday, Mr Byrne said: "Certainly in terms of legislation you'll see in England and Wales there's been powers made available to the police service to, basically, compulsorily detain affected people.
"We don't yet have that power so we're in dialogue with the Department of Justice to see if that can be replicated here in case we need to use it."
Speaking after the meeting, Mr Byrne said he did not expect "scenes from a horror film" if cases of coronavirus increase in Northern Ireland.
"We're following the public health's advice, which is similar to everybody else at the moment," he said. "The disease, whilst the dots in the map are increasing, it hasn't yet exploded into the country.
"So we're following the advice about personal hygiene. Clearly you would imagine in terms of what I need to do with senior colleagues is to make sure our preparedness is at optimum."
Mr Byrne also expected staffing levels to be reduced, through both illness and by those needing to care for family.
"Our commitment is to continue to staff the 999 service, respond to emergency calls and respond to serious crime and terrorism," he said.
He added that extra care would be needed in areas of increased risk of infection such as custody centres.
"It's easy to speculate some sort of scenes from a horror film or a famous Hollywood movie where we're dealing with pandemic and virus," he said.
"But at the moment our assumption is actually that as people fall ill, that will quieten down the calls for service from us.
"Our priority is to encourage people to remain calm through a period of uncertainty. We're all probably facing a unique experience that we've not seen the like of for a 100 years."
Options to cope with reduced numbers include 12-hour shifts and cancelling rest days.
The PSNI chief added: "We're not complacent and we can use a lot of experience here from operating at pace in different times.
"Whether it's dealing with complex investigations or serious disorder to keep officers and staff available to work."

Color gels are used in photography to enhance a bold color so that it draws the attention of the audience immediately. If you want to experiment with lighting and play with colors, learning color gel photography is the right choice for you. In this article, you will learn the top 4 easiest ways for applying color gel in photography that will work for any photo, irrespective of the genre if you want to make it interesting. Though there are hundreds of ways to do it, and you can even customize your own way of applying the color gel, these four ways are the most simple ones for the beginner.
Top 4 Ways To Apply Color Gel In Photography
Use An External Flash
As a beginner, you will always find it easy to apply the color gels with an external flash like a Speedlight. This will let you adjust the direction of the color beam by turning the flash head. just the way you want. This comes cheap, so it will not be an issue even if you're on a tight budget. You can also use strobe lights, but using such a bigger unit requires more expertise. Using an external flash gives you an additional benefit- you get to adjust the intensity of the light beam just the way you want, manually. To add color gel to the flash, you can simply cut a piece of colored cellophane, and fix it to the flash uniformly with the help of tape. You can also bounce the light off a surface. Just be careful that you choose a plain white surface with any patterns, otherwise colored beams bounce off from one another, and the patterned surface will create a horrible effect in your image.
Use Color Gels In Outdoor Photography
You might not be convinced to use color gel in outdoor photography, but it actually produces good results. You can try it on your own, especially when you take outdoor portrait photographs. It even works well for landscapes too. It does not require much different setting up procedure than what you do in the case of indoor color gel photography. Take the distance from your lens to the subject into consideration. If you are clicking from far, do not use this method, as it will not be effective.
Use Color Gel According To Mood
Specific colors evoke certain emotions and alter moods in the audience. So, it will be very effective if you apply color gel to your photos according to the mood they convey. For example, red is a warm color that lifts the mood up, and blue is a cool tone that is usually considered a bit melancholic. Needless to say, you must not use these colors in photos that represent the opposite mood. If you apply color correction gels, your photos will appear like they have been shot in natural light.
Use Color Gel With White Light
You can mix the usage of color gel, and normal white light to break the monotony. Try using the latter as the main source of lighting, to make your audience focus only on the subject, or an important portion of the image.

Anyone found an alternative Mac Mini outer casing?
Hi! I recently acquired a 100% functional Mac Mini from a recycler, the only catch being that the outer casing has been destroyed, and so the guts of the Mini are exposed, and it's not really in re-saleable condition. I've looked into replacing the casing, but it seems a little silly to spend $50-$100 that people are asking.
Does anyone have thoughts on a practical alternative to Apple's Mini case? I'd prefer something on the practical/discreet side, as opposed to goofy and outrageous.

A new study on childhood vaccines determined that immunizations do not lead to autism — a finding that researchers hope will dissipate fears propagated by antivaccine campaigners such as Hollywood stars Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carrey.
Researchers in the study referenced 67 scientific papers, which were chosen for their control and comparison groups and relevance, to expose the low-risk factors of vaccinations.
“Without this work there would be a lack of transparency around this issue, so by doing this important research in a thorough and systematic way, we acknowledge that there are rare but actual side effects,” said co-author Margaret Maglione, a policy analyst at RAND Corp.
The study published in the peer-reviewed journal Pediatrics concluded there is no link between vaccines and leukemia or food allergies. Vaccines for measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) were found to occasionally have the severe side effects of fever or seizures; although, crucially, the report concludes that the “MMR vaccine is not associated with autism.”
Although vaccines have eliminated many communicable diseases, some parents have chosen not to vaccinate their children in recent years. A 2010 study showed that California had the highest cases of whooping cough since 1947. Researchers did not directly study the effects of vaccine opt-out, but found that a cluster of unvaccinated children played a role in the epidemic.
Researchers in the Pediatrics study hoped parents would be convinced by the effectiveness of vaccines, which they wrote represent “one of the greatest public-health achievements of the 20th century for their role in eradicating smallpox and controlling polio, measles, rubella and other infectious diseases in the United States.”
Study co-author Courtney Gidengil, a pediatrician at Boston Children’s Hospital and professor at Harvard Medical School, told AFP that while some parents may still be reluctant, the research should “increase some trust in the vaccine process and the trust between parents and their health care provider.”

New Blackhawks Rozsival, Brookbank prepared to fit in fast
BY MARK LAZERUS firstname.lastname@example.org January 15, 2013 9:16PM
Updated: January 15, 2013 9:27PM
Michal Rozsival unbuckled the two massive knee braces that protect his aging joints and let out a sigh.
‘‘You’ve got to protect yourself,” he said with a smile. ‘‘I’m not the youngest guy anymore.’’
In fact, at the ripe old age of 34 and entering his 12th NHL season, Rozsival is the second-oldest player on the Blackhawks’ roster, behind only 38-year-old Jamal Mayers. The Hawks are his fourth team, so breaking into a new dressing room is nothing new for the crafty veteran.
But even he had to admit this time around is a little weird.
‘‘It’s a different situation this year with the lockout and the short camp,’’ said Rozsival, who played for the Pittsburgh Penguins, New York Rangers and Phoenix Coyotes. ‘‘We don’t have as much time to get settled in and get to know everything and everybody. It’s more like you kind of sprint through it. You have a week to prepare instead of months.’’
There’s been hardly any turnover on the roster over the long offseason. Rozsival and fellow defenseman Sheldon Brookbank — both signed as free agents in the summer — are the only two new faces other than the Rockford call-ups looking to crack the opening-night roster. Their lockers were side-by-side at Johnny’s IceHouse West the first two days of training camp.
‘‘I think they put us here so we could kind of figure it out together as we go along,’’ said Brookbank, a seven-year veteran who spent the last four seasons in Anaheim. ‘‘It’s strange, but the guys have been good here. It’s been fairly smooth so far. Can’t complain.’’
Rozsival said the Hawks’ system is similar enough to the Coyotes’ that he doesn’t feel uncomfortable. Brookbank said he and Rozsival need merely to ‘‘mesh into the system and not do anything too crazy.’’ Rozsival was paired with rookie Ryan Stanton at Tuesday’s practice, while Brookbank worked with Nick Leddy.
With only two new players to work into the rotation, the Hawks’ familiarity with each other — and coach Joel Quenneville’s style of play — could be a big advantage early on in the 48-game sprint season.
‘‘It’s the first time in a couple years we’ve kept the same guys together,’’ winger Patrick Sharp said. ‘‘The chemistry seems like it’s there. We don’t have to go through the warming-up process — we’re already friends and teammates.’’
Well, almost everyone is. Rozsival and Brookbank were looking forward to having 10 of their first 12 games on the road, which ought to give them a chance to get to know their new teammates.
‘‘That’ll help me get to know everyone and blend in,’’ Rozsival said. ‘‘They seem to be really good guys, so I’m not stressed out about it.’’

Intimate partner violence is a pattern of abusive behavior by a current or former intimate partner. The abuse can be physical, sexual, or emotional and can include economic deprivation. Although anyone can experience intimate partner violence, women are more likely than men to be impacted by intimate partner violence; lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning persons experience higher rates of intimate partner violence than other groups. Regardless of the type of abuse, the goal of the abuser is to gain control over the victim. Intimate partner violence is common but is often not diagnosed. There is also concern for an increase in intimate partner violence during the isolation of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The prevalence estimate of intimate partner violence varies depending on the setting. Rates are higher when measured in emergency departments than when measured in the general population. In a randomized controlled trial of intimate partner violence screening in emergency departments, the prevalence over 12 months ranged from 4% to 18%.
While intimate partner violence occurs in all locations, cultural backgrounds, and socioeconomic groups, prevalence estimates can vary by certain demographic characteristics. Specific risk factors include being young (aged 18–24 years), pregnant, single, divorced, or separated; self-identifying as an indigenous person (eg, American Indian or Native Alaskan), multiracial, or non-Hispanic Black; or having coexisting mental illness.
Since patients often do not voluntarily report abuse, clinicians must seek clues that suggest abuse, including an explanation of the injuries that does not fit with what is being seen; frequent visits to the emergency department; and somatic complaints such as chronic headache, abdominal pain, and fatigue. The patient may be vague about some of her symptoms and may avoid eye contact. If the abusing partner is present, he or she may answer all the questions or may decline to leave the room. It is critical that the patient has the opportunity to speak with the clinician alone. The patient's description of the events should be carefully detailed using nonjudgmental language in the event that there are subsequent legal issues.
Physical examination often reveals injuries in the central area of the body. There may be injuries on the forearms as well if the patient tried to defend herself. As with any situation of expected abuse, bruises that are in various stages of healing may be an important clue. All physical examination findings should be well documented.
In addition to the physical consequences, abuse can have psychological consequences. PTSD, depression, anxiety, and alcohol or other substance abuse can develop in those who experience intimate partner violence. Somatization is also common.
Several instruments have been developed to screen for intimate partner violence. These include the HITS (Hurt, Insult, Threaten, Screamed at) tool, the Women Abuse Screening Tool (WAST), the Partner Violence Screen (PVS), the Abuse Assessment Screen (AAS), and the Women's Experience with Battering (WEB) scale.

Concorde Battery Receives TSO Authorization Under
In 2007, Concorde Battery Corporation was the first company to apply for and receive TSO-C173 authorization for a series of Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) batteries. Early in 2008, Concorde Battery received approvals for additional battery models. Concorde continues to conduct testing for TSO approvals on all remaining emergency and engine / auxiliary power starting VRLA battery models.
An FAA Technical Standard Order (TSO) is a Minimum Operational Performance Standard (MOPS) for specified materials, parts and appliances utilized on civil aircraft. When a company is authorized to manufacture a specific part to a TSO standard, it is referred to as TSO authorization and is a design and production FAA approval.
TSO-C173: This particular TSO is for manufacturers of permanently installed rechargeable lead acid and nickel-cadmium aircraft batteries and describes MOPS established by the FAA. Requirements include meeting standards in RTCA Inc. document RTCA/DO-293.
TSO-C173 applies to permanently installed batteries providing power for aircraft equipment including emergency and standby systems and electrical power to start aircraft engines or auxiliary power units. When a battery is marked with TSO authorization that means the battery meets MOPS of the TSO specifications independent of the battery's intended installation on an aircraft. The TSO battery can be installed on an aircraft only after showing that the airworthiness requirements (certification basis) of a specific aircraft model are met by the TSO battery. A separate FAA approval may be required to install the battery on an aircraft.
A copy of TSO-C173 may be found at the following link:
Concorde Battery Corporation manufactures to an AS 9100 Rev. B:2004 and ISO 9001:2000 Certified quality system that meets and exceeds airworthiness and compliance standards as set forth by the aerospace industry. Supplying Original Equipment batteries to aircraft manufacturers such as American Eurocopter, Cessna, Dassault, Diamond, Enstrom Helicopter, Erickson Air Crane, Extra, Gippsland, Grob, Gulfstream, Hawker Beechcraft, Learjet, Liberty Aerospace, Lockheed Martin, Maule, Northrop Grumman, Pilatus, Piper, Robinson Helicopter, Scaled Composites, Schweizer, Sikorsky, Slingsby Aviation, Univair and Zlin to name a few.

|Viral Load Makes me Tired?
Mar 15, 1999
I am assuming that, since I gained all of my seventy pound weightloss back (from CMV colitis), that my always greater-than 500,000 viral load is just too much virus to allow me to feel energetic and snappy like my pre-AIDS old days...Am I right?
Response from Mr. Molaghan
There's a very good chance that the high viral load is contributing to your decreased energy level. Are you taking any HIV medications? You might also want to submit this question to The Body's Treatment Forum.
You might benefit from treatment, if you choose that path. If you are taking antiviral medication for HIV, you might consider having a discussion with your physician about changing medication. Good Luck. I hope you feel a little snappier.

According to Bryce Harper's agent, Scott Boras, the Phillies' superstar player is looking for a…
Noah Syndergaard tossed 7 strong innings as the Phillies bounced back from a rough weekend by beating the Reds 4-1.
Phillies (67-55) Beat Reds (48-72)
- Winning Pitcher: Noah Syndergaard (8-8, 3.77)
- Losing Pitcher: Luis Cessa (3-2, 5.67)
- Save: Andrew Bellatti (2, 3.76)
Tonight didn’t begin well as the game was delayed for an hour due to a passing thunderstorm.
Noah Sydergaard has his best start in a Phillies uniform since being acquired from the Angels at the trade deadline. Thor tossed 7 innings of 3 hit ball, allowing only a single earned run on a solo shot by Austin Romine in the 3rd inning.
Syndergaard actually walked more batter (2) than he struck out (1), but kept the ball on the edges of the plate and wasn’t afraid to challenge hitters in on their hands with his excellent sinker. With the win Syndergaard moved to 3-0 for his new team.
Nick Castellanos and Bryson Stott his back-to-back home runs in the 2nd inning to kick of the scoring for the Phillies. Castellanos added a 2nd RBI in the 3rd inning and extended his current hitting streak to 12 games while JT Realmuto hit his own RBI double in the 5th inning, capping off the scoring for the Phils who only managed to move three runners into scoring position on the night.
Alec Bohm had 3 hits to push his average to an impressive .292. Its a nice boost for the young hitter who entered the night only hitting .234 in the month of August after hitting .434 in July.
Andrew Bellatti got the nod from Rod Thompson for the save opportunity after David Robertson pitched on consecutive days and the Phillies lost both Seranthony Dominguez and Corey Knebel to injury. Bellatti walked the first batter of the inning but recovered striking out consecutive hitters before getting Donovan Solano to fly out to end the ball game.
Nick Castellanos smashes a solo home run into the green foliage of Citizens Bank Park in the 2nd inning.
Bryson Stott goes back-to-back off Reds starting pitcher Luis Cessa in the 2nd inning with a moonshot to the right field upper deck.
Nick Castellanos knocks in his 2nd run of the night with an RBI double in the 3rd inning that scored JT Realmuto all the way from first base after a poor throw from the Reds right fielder.
Austin Romine takes Noah Syndergaard deep for a solo home run in the 5th inning to cut the Phils lead to 2 runs.
JT Realmuto pushes the lead back to three runs in the 5th inning with an RBI double that Reds centerfielder Nick Senzel probably should have gotten to.
Andrew Bellatti steps into the closer role and shuts down the Reds to pick up his second save of the season.
PHILS WIN 4-1!!
Up Next for the Phillies
The Phillies will look to earn a second straight victory against the Cincinnati Reds at Citizens Bank Park on Tuesday night.
Ranger Suarez (8-5, 3.31) will toe the rubber facing off against Nick Lodolo (3-4, 4.12) with the first pitch scheduled for 7:05 pm.

Everyone is born with creativity. But those people who appear to be super creative have a secret. They know that creativity has to be developed and exercised to come easily. I am on a quest to immerse myself in creativity of all kinds. I hope you will join me!
I am participating in a HUGE bead blog hop. There are 350 people in it. You can look at beads and beading projects to your hearts content. The BSBP goes like this:
We were assigned a partner. Mine is Amber Dawn. She is a jewelry maker who works a lot in polymer clay. Check out her blog, she makes miniatures that are pretty impressive.
We send a focal bead, a clasp, and some filler beads to our partner.
We use what we receive to make a piece of jewelry.
We blog about it today!
So, just about the time we were mailing beads to each other, Amber was going into the city (NYC) and asked me if there was anything I wanted. I said, "Please send me the cast of Hair." She did not send me the cast, but she did send me photos of the theater marquis.
She also made me specially designed polymer beads. Another interesting note: the beads I sent Amber also have some purple in them. I am not normally a purple girl, and since I am a lampwork bead maker, purple polymer beads were awesomely different for me. It was fun to do something out of my ordinary. I think that is the point of the party.
She sent me enough components to make 2 or 3 pieces of jewelry. These are some of my favorites. She made these. They are jewelry sized, so the words are very small. Remember, she works in miniature? And she pays attention and made them about Hair and one of the songs from the musical. Doesn't the metal piece look like a sun? Love it.
She has little (literally) notes on the pieces.
Since I had the Hair theme going, and it is set in the 70s, I thought that I would make a macrame bracelet. I did a lot of macrame in the 70s, so they seem to go together to me.
To begin, I tied two strands of lavender cotton braiding thread to my clasp...taped everything to the table, and started knotting.
I tied everything with a large enough hole into the knots.
The green beads had holes too small, but I wanted them on the bracelet, so I put them on head pins so they could be added.
I knotted a long enough piece to fit my wrist and tied the string to the other end of the clasp.
Then, I tied two lengths of a deeper purple cord to the clasp and started knotting. I added 7 green bead dangles before finishing and attaching it to the bracelet at the end.
The bracelet has two strands. Groovy!
Below, you will find links to each person in the BSBP. Visit as many blogs as you can! Enjoy!

"The novel explores the Consul's past and present, relates his private doom to the tragic fatalism of the Mexican scene. Stephen Spender Under the Volcano was a novel written by critically acclaimed Malcolm Lowry. The book eventually became a film starring Albert Finney and Jacqueline Bisset, directed by critically acclaimed John Huston. Both the film and the book failed to reach a wider public despite the brash, braying praise of critics.
Like Lowry, I lived in Mexico for a time, from fall 1980 till late 1981. During that time we traveled to a number of places including two trips to Cuernavaca. I loved Cuernavaca, the city where this story primarily occurs, the Land of Eternal Springtime where Cortez established his winter palace. Like Lowry and the tragic hero of his novel I, too, was present in Tepotzlan on a holy day when the dark-faced peasants in loose white clothes and wide hats brought out Christ and the Virgin from the shadows of monasteries, parading, holding high large displays and brightly colored pillars, burned incense, celebrating intently the blended religion of the peoples.
This story covers 24 hours in the life of an alcoholic, his last 24 hours, with his singular preoccupation on where he will get his next drink, simultaneously immersing the reader into his internal despondency, hopeless self-wreckage, introspection and hallucination. It is a tragic life culminating in a tragic end, perhaps intended to be the mirror of a forlorn culture shrouded in apparitions of death.
I originally took an interest in the book because I'd read that it was supposedly structured like the Cabala, the chapters being a series of steps toward enlightenment. My first effort to read it in the late 80's left me flat, however, and I placed it back on the shelf for a couple years. I was not convinced that the effort would yield a sufficient reward. The second attempt ended about a fourth of the way through with the same frustration. A couple more years past, and upon beginning the story I was transported inward to the heart of the characters, the culture, and the bleak futility of the hero's quest.
John Huston took this very complicated bundle of soiled images and attempted to iron it out into its essential story. The film, inadequate to the task, did capture the book's essence. There is no way it could capture the spinning surrealistic writing, compelling inner monologues, and painfulness of Lowry's heartfelt bloodletting.
Malcolm Lowry wrote the first draft in Mexico while living in Cuernavaca in 1938. Director Huston does an outstanding job of giving the feel of Mexico during this time frame. And the film brings to life many vivid memories of our time there Despite its shortcomings, I found myself still moved by the film. This is the second time I've watched it and this time I enjoyed the performances of Finney and Bisset, whom a few here have been especially critical of. Finney is nearly perfect throughout in his portrayal of a wrecked man. Bisset is equal to the task she must perform, confused, frightened, compassionate, pained.
There are two scenes especially perfect. The one of Finney as Geoffrey Firmin searching desperately for a bottle, a search that leads him into the garden where he immerses himself in the object of his quest. This scene is a summing up of the man's lost life. And the last scene revealing that his own self-destruction hurts more than himself. hurts all who are around him.
The weakness of the film for me was perhaps the feeling that it was put together by a nostalgic older director who could have done more with the music, the camera work, the edits. Great films often grab you from the opening images, credits and soundtrack. Despite what a few have written here, I found myself having to overlook what I considered a weak appetizer that insufficiently lured me into the depths of our hero's heart, mind, soul, struggle.
Huston could have done more with the film, but did not. Perhaps it is because of the era. He did not feel it necessary? I can't say. The grandeur of his foreign setting is hollow. I cannot blame the actors for this. Finney was remarkable throughout, almost over the top. Bisset's broken heart shone through with clarity.
It's a good film based on a rich, but difficult, book. If it is too depressing or too convoluted and enigmatic, you're under no obligation to finish either.
If you find yourself stimulated by old Mexico, the companion documentary based on this film is wholly worthwhile. Watch the film first, though.
"Time is a fake healer anyhow. How can anyone presume to tell me about you? You cannot know the sadness of my life. Alas, what has happened to the love and understanding we once had. Geoffrey Firmin, Under the Volcano.

Under Volcano. Malcolm Lowry was a British novelist and poet whose masterpiece Under the Volcano is widely hailed as one of the greatest novels of the twentieth century. Born near Liverpool, England, Lowry grew up in a prominent, wealthy family and chafed under the expectations placed upon him by parents and boarding school.
Under the Volcano is such a powerful, lyrical statement of a chronic drunkard filled with rigid but somewhat fragmented prose. It captures the human conditions and one man's persistent struggle against the elemental forces that threaten to destroy him. Under The Volcano 1984 Trailer.

SILAMBAM Is Mother Of All MARTIAL ARTS
We have already covered the significance of Silambam and why it is essential for everyone. So what can Silambam contribute in Martial Arts and why can it be considered as the Silambam - Mother of All Martial Arts?
VENTURING THROUGH SILAMBAM
The regular practice of a sport is to make oneself attain the optimum level of force, suppleness, agility, flexibility, tonicity, endurance, elasticity, speed, rapidity, power, as well as, balancing, equilibrating and stabilising physical, mental, psychological, psychical, moral and even emotional aptitudes in relation to the demand of that particular sport.
Silambam can be defined as the safest and most health effective sport in the world which covers all edges in its approaches, being holistic, physical or mental. It harmonises the system of development for the body, mind and spirit and act as the best corrector of mood , as an inner peace finder for wellness and happiness , improving health which is the greatest of wealth.
Silambam englobes numerous advantages
Firstly, it improves the range of motion (ROM) at all points of articulations (Joints), as it is a fully internal and External workout for the whole body. Whatever your sport, there is the incidence and hassard of some overworked or over stressed muscles or joints in the body. A swimmer, for example, may be suffering from tight shoulders, a runner with shortened hamstrings, a cyclist with chronically tight lower back and hunched shoulders, tight quads and calves and the golfer may suffer lack of balance in the body from the repetitive twisting to one side. Silambam practice strengthens the muscles that are underused and releases the muscles that are overworked from the practising of a particular specific sport. Taking cycling as an example, the repetitive isolated movement through the knee joints can cause injuries, whether you're a spinner, road or mountain cyclist, while Silambam can make your joints and body more flexible by 10-20%. Moreover flexible muscle groups have increased strength and this in turn produces more pedal power. It increased leg and overall body performance; particular Silambam postures teach us that every limb and muscle of the body is integral part of to the posture.
Secondly Silambam is excellent for building core strength, because it involves moving the body in various directions and angles through postures requiring stability and balance, often in an unusual relationship to gravity. The key is flexible strength, and that's what Silambam develops. Too many people still think abdominal training is doing crunches, which does nothing for flexibility. If you just train for strength, your muscles can actually shorten. And if you train in only one direction, you're limiting your range of motion.
Thirdly it prevents injuries or can facilitate a quicker recovery time when injured. It is often an injury that leads people in to their very first Silambam class following their physiotherapist recommending it as a form of breathing. Contracted and hard trained muscles often lack elasticity; the muscle tear that goes hand in hand with hard training can eventually take its toll and cause an injury that puts the athlete out of action for a few weeks. This can be fatal in the build-up to a sporting event and may ultimately mean dropping out. A regular silambam practice can keep the muscles and joints healthy and flexible, making time invested in silambam not a luxury but an essential part of any SPORT training schedule.
So, why not enhancing your performance and prevent injury by adding Silambam to your training plan now as the main spice of your sport dish.

Geographical Distribution of Tamarind in Africa, Source ICRAF. Updated on 26th March 2019.
Indigenous to tropical Africa; widely used in the Sahel, India, South East Asia, the Caribbean and Central America. A very adaptable species, drought hardy, preferring semi-arid areas and wooded grasslands, tolerating salty, coastal winds, even monsoon climates. It grows in Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Central Africa Republic, Chad, Ethiopia, Gambia, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Kenya, Madagascar, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, Sudan, Tanzania and Uganda. Farmers commonly cultivate it in parklands in the arid and semiarid zones of West Africa (Kalinganire et al.).

Firewood, charcoal, timber (furniture, boats, general purposes), poles, food (fruit pulp for drink, fruit, spice), medicine (bark, leaves, roots, fruit), fodder (leaves, fruit), shade, ornamental, mulch, nitrogen fixation, windbreak, tannin (bark), dye and veterinary medicine.
Seedlings, wildings, direct sowing at site, grafting and budding for best varieties.
The tamarind becomes a fairly large tree, so keep this in mind when planting the tree. It should be planted in full sun. It is highly wind-resistant with strong, supple branches.
Tamarind may be propagated from seeds, and vegetatively by marcotting (air layering), grafting and budding. Rootsstocks are propagated from seed, which germinate within a week. Seeds retain their viability for several months if kept dry. Plant seeds 1 to 1.5cm deep in containers. Seeds should be selected from viable trees with good production and quality. Germination is best when seeds are covered by 1.5 cm loose, sandy loam or by a mixture of loam and sand.
Seedlings should attain at least 80 cm before being transplanted to their final location at the beginning of the rainy season. Seedlings should begin to produce fruit in 6 to 8 years.
Outstanding mother trees are vegetatively propagated; shield and patch budding and cleft grafting are fast and reliable methods, currently used in large-scale propagation in the Philippines. Trees can also be started from branch cuttings, and superior clones can also be grafted onto seed-propagated rootstock. Vegetatively propagated trees come into bearing within 3 to 4 years. They produce more fruits as well as more-uniform fruits than seed propagation. Trees also seem to remain smaller - making them easier to harvest and handle (ICRAF, CRFG; Lost Crops of Africa). Young trees should be planted in holes larger than necessary to accommodate the root system. They should be planted slightly higher than ground level to allow for subsequent settling of the soil and a water basin should be built around each tree to assure adequate moisture for young trees. (Morton 1987)
- Food; it has many edible products - flour from seeds may be made into cake and bread, roasted seeds can be matched to groundnuts, fruit is eaten ripe and tamarind juice is just super. The pulp can also be used for souring porridge, drink, seasoning and flavoring.
- Fuel; is a source of firewood and charcoal for cooking.
- Timber; furniture, poles, posts, utensils (pestles and mortars, carts), boat building,
- Medicine; leaves, twigs, bark and roots are used for medicinal purposes.
- Fodder; feed for livestock.
- Bee forage;
- Veterinary medicine
- Shade or shelter: The extended crown of the tamarind offers shade so that it is used as a place for holding barazas. Due to its resistance to storms, it can also be used as a windbreak. It should be noted that this tree species is not compatible with other plants because of its dense shade, broad spreading crown and allelopathic effects.
- Boundary or barrier or support: T. indica can be used as a live fence.
- Ornamental: The evergreen nature and the beautiful flowers make it suitable for ornamental planting in parks, along roads and riverbanks.
- Nitrogen fixing
Slow growing but long lived. Pollarding, coppicing.
350 - 1,400 seeds per kg. Germination rate around 90%.
Tamarind seeds have been used in a limited way as emergency food. They are roasted, soaked to remove the seedcoat, then boiled or fried, or ground to a flour or starch (Morton, 1987).
Nick or soak seed in cold water for 12 hours.
Seed can be stored for more than two years if kept in a dry, cool and insect-free place, because seeds are susceptible to attack by weevils.
Young trees are pruned to allow three to five well spaced branches to develop into the main scaffold structure of the tree. Maintenance pruning only is required after that to remove dead or damaged wood (CRFG).
The dark brown heartwood is hard and heavy, well grained and easy to polish. The fruit pulp is rich in vitamin C. The fruit has many uses and important for nutrition in many parts of the world, including India. It is budded and grafted on a large scale in the Philippines. Recommended for homesteads.
Pests and Diseases
- Scale insects; (Aonidiella orientalis, Aspidiotus destructor and Saisetia oleae), mealy-bugs (Nipaecoccus viridis and Planococcus lilacinus), and a borer (Pachymerus gonagra) are the most serious pests of the tamarind. The minor ones include; lac insects, and bagworms.
- Beetle larvae may attack and damage tree branches as seen in Brazil, while in Florida and Hawaii beetles attack ripe pods. In China termites have been seen to attack the tree.
- Larvae of the groundnut bruchid beetle are serious pests that attack the fruit and seed an in some seasons, fruit borers may inflict serious damage to maturing fruits causing a great reduction in marketable yields.
- Diseases which have been reported are leaf spot, powdery mildews, a sooty mould, stem disease, stem, root and wood rot, stem canker, a bark parasite and a bacterial leaf-spot.

In a world first, two cheetah cubs conceived through in vitro fertilization have been born. Their surrogate mother, Isabelle (Izzy), gave birth to the cubs on February 19 at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium, Ohio. Hailed as a scientific breakthrough, the successful IVF birth could play an important part in conservation efforts for the cheetah, which is red-listed as “vulnerable” by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
This was only the third attempt by scientists to carry out this procedure in cheetahs, where all previous efforts were unsuccessful. In other big cat species, IVF is also rare, with the birth of three tiger cubs reported back in 1990. Therefore these births, made possible by a partnership between the Columbus Zoo, the Smithsonian’s National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute (SCBI), and Fossil Rim Wildlife Center in Texas, are groundbreaking in the field.
The biological mom of the cubs is Kibibi, a 6.5-year-old cheetah, whose chances of having children is low. Her eggs were fertilized in a laboratory with sperm previously taken from a male cheetah living in a different location. The embryos were then implanted into 3-year-old Izzy’s womb, where they developed into fetuses. This process was also carried out with different egg and sperm donors, implanted into a different surrogate’s womb (which happened to be Izzy’s sister Ophelia), but it was unsuccessful.
Throughout Izzy’s 93-day gestational period, the team carried out multiple pregnancy checks. Due to the close bond between the Zoo staff and Izzy, she had been voluntarily trained to allow ultrasounds, X-rays, blood draws, and other medical procedures, preventing the need for extensive use of anesthesia during her pregnancy.
“We knew that Izzy was pregnant at five weeks by ultrasound and we continued to collect ultrasound data throughout her entire pregnancy. It was a remarkable opportunity and we learned so much,” Adrienne Crosier, cheetah biologist at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute, one of the scientists who performed the embryo transfer, said in a statement.
Izzy’s care team put her on a 24-hour watch a few days before her due date, ready to be on hand if necessary. They have continued to monitor both Izzy and her cubs since birth, with the first-time mom providing great care to the cubs; one male currently weighing in at 480 grams (16.9 ounces) and the other a female who weighs 350 grams (12.3 ounces).
The feat is of huge importance in conservation efforts of cheetahs, as it can be used to help maintain genetic diversity in the decreasing population. Kibibi, the biological mom, has valuable genes that were at risk of never being passed on, whereas Izzy’s bloodline was already well represented in the cheetah’s genetic registry. Wild cheetahs could also benefit from this technique.
In their native range of Africa, threats to the cheetah population, including habitat loss and fragmentation, conflicts with livestock and game farmers, as well as unregulated tourism, have left only 7,500 individual cheetahs geographically separated. This genetic “bottlenecking” raises the likelihood of interbreeding, meaning that cubs are more susceptible to diseases as well as other physiological impairments – a huge problem when the infant mortality rate is already as high as 83 percent.
Therefore, increasing the genetic diversity of the cheetah population through IVF and embryo implantation could spell a “big win for the cheetah.”
“The first thing we had to do is show that this technique works,” Dr Randy Junge, the Columbus Zoo’s vice-president of Animal Health said in a statement. “Then we have to become proficient in it, so we can do it efficiently and reliably. With experience, we may be able to freeze embryos and transfer them to Africa.”
