Fat Content in ZIWI Recipes
At first glance, it might look like ZIWI Peak recipes contain a high level of fat. This is especially so if people are used to feeding kibble.
The high level of crude fat percentage in ZIWI Peak recipes is due to the lack of carbohydrates in the recipes. As per AAFCO and NRC guidelines (*see below for explanation), carbohydrates are not considered an essential dietary nutrient for dogs and cats. Dogs and cats source glucose and energy from fat and protein.
The fat in ZIWI Peak recipes is the fat which naturally occurs in the meat of the source animal species. On examining the nutritional analysis, the fat percentage may look high because of the low moisture in air-dried ZIWI Peak - the air-dried recipes contain less than 14% moisture. The fat in ZIWI Peak recipes is similar to what you would find in raw or cooked meat, it just has the moisture removed.
(* The National Research Council (NRC) and AAFCO publish nutrient profiles for dogs and cats for various life stages. They aim to list minimum nutrient requirements and maximum nutrient requirements for nutrients with potential toxicity. To read more about AAFCO, click here.)
Is a diet high in crude fat % healthy for dogs and cats?
Dogs and cats are classified as “high density lipoprotein mammals” and express atherogenic resistance (NRC, 2006). High-density lipoprotein, or “good” cholesterol, absorbs cholesterol and carries it back to the liver. Thus, dogs and cats can tolerate high dietary fat (lipid) concentrations. Even if obese, dogs do not develop fasting hyperglycaemia, atherogenic hyperlipidaemia, or type 2 diabetes (see Verkest, 2014). For dogs and cats, dietary fats are an essential nutrient. Indeed, essential fatty acids must be contained in the diet as these are unable to be synthesised by the body.
Lipids provide a carrier for fat-soluble vitamins; they are essential for the absorption of the vitamins A, D, E, and K. When there is insufficient fat in the diet, these vitamins cannot be absorbed efficiently, and deficiencies can arise as a result. Dietary fats generally improve the palatability of food and add an acceptable texture to foods. Palatability tests generally show that dogs and cats find ZIWI Peak to an extremely palatable food.
The digestibility of fat is higher than that of carbohydrates and proteins, and fat contains approximately three times the energy. Fat accounts for approximately 2.25 times the metabolisable energy (ME) of either protein or carbohydrates (NRC, 2006). Even though fat may be only a small percentage of the diet, it can provide most of the kilocalories.
The main use of fat in the body is energy storage. Animals have an unlimited capacity to store excess energy as fat, whereas they have a limited capacity to store carbohydrates as glycogen. Glycogen is made up of many connected glucose molecules and is the stored form of glucose (NRC, 2006). Glucose is the main metabolite of carbohydrate digestion in humans. In dogs and cats, where there is an absence of dietary glucose, through the process of gluconeogenesis glucose will be synthesised from amino acids and glycerol (NRC, 2006).
The dog is capable of meeting its metabolic requirement for glucose from gluconeogenic pathways throughout growth and adult maintenance, provided that sufficient fat and protein are included in the diet.
Cats are in a constant state of gluconeogenesis, and do not appear to utilise carbohydrates as rapidly as do dogs. Cats have lower rates of glucose utilisation; they have lower levels of glucokinase activity, a hepatic enzyme that in other species adjusts to diet and blood glucose levels (NRC, 2006). Additionally, cats have comparatively longer blood glucose elimination times. Even though cats can readily absorb dietary carbohydrates, the utilisation for the resulting glucose is not efficient (NRC, 2006).
When consuming a higher fat diet, dietary protein is required as dispensable amino acids to provide nitrogen and carbon for the synthesis of energy through gluconeogenesis. For either dogs or cats that consume primarily animal tissue, amino acids provide carbon chains for gluconeogenesis to supply glucose to tissues that require it to maintain normal tissue metabolism (NRC, 2006).
The risk with a high fat diet occurs when the diet is low protein and high fat. When the diet is rich in bioavailable, high quality protein, this risk is negated for an average dog or cat. Studies have reported tolerance for 40 percent fat (Ivy, 1936; Axelrod et. al., 1951). However, when dogs were fed a low protein, high fat diet containing 7g of lean meat and 10g of lard per kilogram of body weight, along with 50g sucrose plus vitamin and mineral supplements, pancreatitis was induced (Lindsay et. al., 1948). ZIWI Peak has a digestibility rating of over 95%, and is rich in quality, highly bioavailable meat protein sources.
Currently, the NRC states that the safe upper limit for total dietary fat is approximately 70 percent metabolizable energy (NRC, 2006). All the ZIWI Peak recipes are inside this safe upper limit.
Why Fat is the Preferred Energy Source for Carnivores
(rather than carbs)
What about pancreatitis?
Most cases of pancreatitis in pets are idiopathic. Many veterinarians are concerned about fat consumption as a cause of pancreatitis in dogs, but fat does not actually cause pancreatitis.
In a 2009 study, using 10 healthy adult dogs, it was found that dietary fat content had no effect on serum cTLI, cPLI, or gastrin concentrations (James et al., 2009). In this study, dogs were fed one of four diets. Diets A and B contained 16% and 5% crude fat, respectively; diet C was composed of diet A with pancreatic enzymes; diet D was composed of diet B with pancreatic enzymes and MCTs.
It was found that serum cTLI, cPLI, or gastrin concentrations in the dogs did not differ among the different diets fed, among dogs, or over time. When multiple comparisons were analysed, diet D caused the least amount of measurable pancreatic response, although this difference was not significant.
A relevant factor for pancreatitis is certainly dietary indiscretion (i.e., consuming things that aren’t proper food, like garbage). A study in 2008 identified that ingesting unusual food items, table scraps and getting into the trash increased the odds of pancreatitis (Lem et al, 2008).
This is likely to be a relevant factor because QUALITY of fat is also as relevant as quantity of fat consumed.

DAWSON CREEK, B.C. – Kevin Johnston was given a pre-trial conference date during his Dawson Creek court appearance on Wednesday.
The conference will take place in Prince George on June 28th.
Johnston was arrested and charged with assault after punching the manager of No Frills on March 25th.
A video posted on his social media platforms showed RCMP arresting Johnston after he was seen yelling, ” I am making a citizen’s arrest” at the manager.
In a separate video, Johnston was seen throwing a punch at the manager. This came after the worker hit Johnston’s hand away while he tried to shove his phone in the manager’s face.
Dawson Creek RCMP says the manager followed a group that entered the store without masks to the parking lot to collect license plates for a police report.
Johnston was in the city to speak at a Freedom Rally.

Migrant health center leaders from around the country were honored this week at the Conference for Agricultural Worker Health, sponsored by the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC). The national gathering, which took place in Albuquerque, NM, is the only conference dedicated solely to the health and well-being of America’s migrant and seasonal agricultural workers and their families.
Among those honored were:
2019 Lifetime Achievement in Migrant Health Award
Roland J. Gardner, Chief Executive Officer, Beaufort-Jasper Hampton Comprehensive Health Services in Ridgeland, SC.
2019 Outstanding Migrant Health Center Award
Golden Valley Health Centers, Merced, California
2019 Outstanding Migrant Health Center Board Member Award
Carmen Veguilla, Board Chair, COSSMA Inc., Cidra, P.R.
2019 Outstanding Migrant Health Public Service Award
Susan Gabbard, Ph.D Vice President, JBS International, Inc., Burlingame, CA
“Each year, NACHC takes pride in recognizing colleagues, who have done so much on behalf of our migrant and seasonal farmworkers” said NACHC Board Chair Jim Luisi during the award ceremony. “Each in their own way has shown what it takes to make health care meaningful and responsive for this vital part of the nation’s workforce. Honorees have lifted barriers to care and advanced understanding of the complex health needs of people suffering poverty and hardship. Equally important, in serving a population far outside the mainstream, they have defined the components of quality patient care, creating a new vision for health care delivery. We applaud their service and join expressing gratitude for their leadership and invaluable contributions to the Health Center Movement.”
The Conference for Agricultural Health also featured keynote remarks by Dolores Huerta, Co-Founder of the United Farm Workers of America and President of the Dolores Huerta Foundation, and Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, former Lieutenant Governor of Maryland and Former U.S. Deputy Assistant Attorney General. Both leaders were presented with the National Achievement in Migrant Health Award.
Community and Migrant Health Centers serve one million migrant and seasonal agricultural workers and more than 28 million people nationwide. The Migrant Health Program was signed into law in 1962 by President John F. Kennedy.

Yes, it was said that it was found. Of course there will definitely be input from him (Andika)
Jakarta (ANTARA) –
The Chief of Naval Staff (Kasal) who is also the sole candidate for TNI Commander, Admiral TNI Yudo Margono, admitted that he would continue the programs implemented by TNI Commander General TNI Andika Perkasa.
“Yes, of course you have to continue whatever his policies are. Because it’s definitely 2023, this has already been planned for 2022. It’s just a matter of implementing it,” Yudo said on the sidelines of the release of the TNI’s Mantime Task Force (MTF) Konga XXVIII-N/UNIFIL FY 2022 at the Kolinlamil Pier, Tanjung Priok, North Jakarta, Thursday.
Yudo also admitted that he received input from TNI General Andika Perkasa regarding his leadership as TNI commander.
He also stated his readiness to undergo a “fit and proper test” at the DPR on Friday (2/12).
According to Yudo, there was no special preparation to undergo the due diligence.
“Nothing. The important thing is that we have been prepared since it was announced at that time, that means we have to be prepared. There will definitely be a ‘fit and proper test’. Yes, we have to prepare materials that will be questioned by Commission I tomorrow,” said Yudo.
When asked about his feelings about being appointed as TNI commander, Yudo only smiled.
Meanwhile, TNI Commander General TNI Andika Perkasa admitted that he had provided inputs to Admiral Yudo Margono. However, Andika did not explain what input was given to Yudo.
“Oh that’s it. That’s why I said how many times have we met after it was announced. We communicated a lot. But Pak Yudo was ready,” he said.
“But actually Mr. Yudo was elected, it was all the president’s choice with various considerations. Yes, we are happy,” he said.
He admitted that he did not provide input to President Jokowi regarding the candidate for the TNI commander to replace him
“Oh no, no. That’s the president who decides, surely the president knows better,” he said.
TNI Admiral Yudo Margono will undergo a fit and proper test on Friday (2/12) at the DPR as a candidate for TNI commander to replace TNI General Andika Perkasa who will retire at the end of December 2022.

This railway is approximate 340 Kilometers (339.61) and will be branched out from Lorestan railway. This railway is located near Doroud-Andimeshk and Dokuheh presidio, and in the station of Dokuheh, the railway will be connected to the national railway of the south of the country. Totally, 19 stations were designed for the railway. The railway will pass the present road. Rugged topography, natural features, oil and gas pipeline, population centers in villages, towns and constructions located in the corridor, and also, limitations and technical requirements of railway caused complicated geometric plan of the railway. 55 tunnels were excavated, 78 large bridges, and 300 trenching were going to be done, which indicated that construction activities was at very high level and there are huge cost for it. Therefore, the environmental consultant has worked with road design consultants (Pars and Iran Stone companies) throughout the routes, so that all of the environmental spots and sensitive areas are identified by the expert team of the consultant and presented to the designers.
The existence of the tight area in terms of technical activities, Poldkhtar wetland, protected area of Oak forest along the route, sensitive plant and animal habitats, and the existence of oil and gas corridors along the route were the problematic for environmental consultant of the plan. Finally, for each section, the solution and variant were provided specifically.

Zardari, Talpur to be held responsible if anything happens to me, my family: Zulfiqar Mirza
LAHORE (92 News) –Sindh’s former Home Minister Zulfiqar Mirza says former president Asif Ali Zardari and PPP leader Faryal Talpur to be held responsible if anything happens to him or his family.
Speaking exclusively to 92 News, Zulfiqa Mirza said his life is in danger and he can be murdered like Murtaza Bhutto.
Mirza said security has been taken back from his wife and questioned why security is being provided to Asif Zardari’s sister and his friend.
He alleged that a person named Anwar Majeed is being provided security, whereas, three police vehicles are dedicated for security of Majeed’s family.
Zulfiqar Mirza said government has failed in the province and termed Sindh Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah a ‘puppet.’


Despite the GOP losing the race for president, Utah Gov. Gary Herbert says he has 'never been more optimistic' about Utah's future.
For members of a party that had just won decisively in a majority of races across the state, some of Utah's Republican leadership weren't especially enthusiastic in the wake of Tuesday's election.
With President Barack Obama beating GOP hopeful Mitt Romney in the presidential race, Republicans across the state had their victories tinged with disappointment.

Yet Another Reason The Sequester’s Not So Horrific
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) explains that even after the onset of the sequester, discretionary spending levels are still higher than discretionary spending levels were in 2007, the last year before the recession. In fact, while war-related funding has decreased by 46 percent since 2007, discretionary spending (excluding war funding and emergency hurricane relief) increased by 10.7 percent.
This illustrates a couple of things. First, no matter how much people want to dramatize the sequester, it’s just not that dramatic; in fact, many of us believed we were spending far too much in 2007. Second, it highlights that the sequester was not nearly enough to get the federal government’s out of control spending under control.

In the end, the clock ran out. A committee tasked with combing through the government's 244-page overhaul of its election law altogether cut off its debate, no further through the bill than Page 47.
The government had set a May 1 deadline for the committee's work, but it hadn't finished with the divisive Fair Elections Act. And so the Conservative-dominated committee sped through the rest, with only voting and no debate. The government's 45 amendments were passed and more than 200 from the opposition – all but a few minor ones – were rejected.
(What is the Fair Elections Act? Read The Globe and Mail's easy explanation.)
It was the latest step for the bill, which was widely panned by critics and on which the government partly backtracked a week ago. The bill is now expected to be in, or very near, its final form and on a fast-track to become law by summer. Critics warn it's still flawed.
Tempers flared in the waning hours of the committee's work Thursday. NDP MP David Christopherson accused the Conservatives of ramming through a bill that will make it harder to vote and therefore amounted to voter suppression – a tactic typically seen as targeting minority groups. One Tory MP, Scott Reid, interpreted that as an accusation the Tories were racists, and angrily denied that, saying a wide range of ID is available and he was ashamed to sit across from Mr. Christopherson.
Clashes aside, the amendments went as expected. The government backed down, partly, on some of the bill's most controversial initial proposals – to eliminate "vouching," a sort of catch-all for voters who don't have enough ID; to exempt certain fundraising costs from spending limits; to allow partisan appointments of central poll supervisors on election day; and to introduce robocall rules – but only require call records to be kept for a year, a time period dismissed by many as far too short.
Instead, after roughly 19 hours of the committee's clause-by-clause deliberation, the amended Bill C-23 compromises on vouching with a provision that a voter who has ID but can't prove an address can sign an oath, so long as a second voter signs a similar one on the first voter's behalf, and still cast a ballot. The fundraising exemption and central poll supervisor provision were scrapped entirely. Some robocall records will now need to be kept for three years, others not at all.
The opposition celebrated the government's partial retreat, but lamented the breakneck pace of the bill's passage, despite the opposition parties' complaints. The government refused cross-country consultations, sent the bill to the Senate for a week-long, now-finished "pre-study" and set Thursday's committee deadline weeks ago.
"The process from the get-go was undemocratic. It was never meant to be an improvement in the election laws in Canada. It was meant to give the government an advantage," Mr. Christopherson said Thursday.
Liberal MP Scott Simms called the process a charade and warned the bill will leave some people unable to vote next year. "People are going to get upset and it's going to be proven in the next election," he said.
Once passed, Bill C-23 will require Canadian voters to have ID. It eliminates use of the voter information card to corroborate a voter's current address, which a voter must also now prove, or sign an oath. The bill puts new limits on Elections Canada, effectively killing some civic literacy programs and advertisements aimed at boosting voter turnout. Instead, Elections Canada may only to advertise the basics of where, when and how to vote.
The bill adds an additional advance voting day and new, tougher penalties for fraud, though it doesn't give elections investigators the power to ask a court to force a witness to co-operate – without which investigations will stall, observers have warned. The bill does not subject robust party voter databases to any oversight or scrutiny under privacy laws; instead, it expands them by giving parties "bingo cards," or a comprehensive list of which registered voters cast a ballot, after an election.
A spokesperson for Democratic Reform Minister Pierre Poilievre issued a brief statement after the committee finished. "The Fair Elections Act is a common-sense bill that will require ID for voting and improve our democracy. Canadians support it. There has been enough talk. It's time to pass the bill," the statement said.
Opposition MPs, however lamented a process that saw critics nearly unanimously call for changes, only for the government to agree to some before pushing the law through.
"This has been an incredibly disappointing exercise," NDP MP and committee member Craig Scott said. "Without Canadians alongside a really active Official Opposition, this bill would be an absolute travesty. Right now, it's going to go to the House as just a travesty."

Egyptian Chronology and the Old TestamentPresented at Edinburgh Creation Group
Traditionally ancient historians have used records of the reign's of Egyptian kings as the basis of their chronology. This has lead many to believe that the Old Testament gives an unreliable record of history. However recent evidence suggests that a number of Egyptian kings reigned simultaneously rather than consecutively. Mark Woolmer explains this is taken into account striking similarities are found between the Egyptian and Hebrew records and new light is shed on archaeological discoveries. This is a fascinating exploration of the current debate in ancient history.

Toyota Motor Corporation: Driving the Future Since its Formation on August 28, 1937
On August 28, 1937, the Toyota Motor Corporation was established, marking the beginning of a journey that would eventually transform it into one of the world’s most renowned and influential automobile manufacturers. Founded by Kiichiro Toyoda, the company’s mission was to create a reliable and affordable automobile for the masses. Today, Toyota stands as a testament to innovation, quality, and sustainable practices in the automotive industry.
Founding Vision and Early Years
The origins of Toyota can be traced back to the Toyoda Automatic Loom Works, a company primarily focused on textile machinery. Kiichiro Toyoda, the founder’s son, had a vision of expanding the family business into the automobile industry. Inspired by his visit to automobile plants in the United States, he recognized the potential for growth and development in creating affordable automobiles for the Japanese market.
Incorporating his vision, Kiichiro Toyoda established the Toyota Motor Corporation on August 28, 1937. The company’s name was changed from “Toyoda” to “Toyota” as the latter was considered luckier in Japanese culture and had a smoother sound.
Challenges and Growth
The early years of Toyota were marked by challenges, including financial constraints and the onset of World War II. During the war, the company shifted its focus to producing trucks and military vehicles for the Japanese army. After the war, Toyota faced economic difficulties, but the implementation of the Toyota Production System (TPS) would change its history.
The Toyota Production System: Revolutionizing Manufacturing
The Toyota Production System, developed in the 1950s and 1960s, revolutionized manufacturing processes and became a cornerstone of the company’s success. Focused on eliminating waste, improving efficiency, and ensuring quality, TPS gave birth to concepts like “Just-In-Time” production and “Kaizen” (continuous improvement). These principles not only transformed Toyota’s operations but also influenced manufacturing worldwide.
Global Expansion and Innovation
Toyota’s commitment to quality, durability, and reliability led to its expansion beyond Japan’s borders. In the 1970s and 1980s, Toyota gained a strong foothold in international markets, particularly in the United States. Models like the Corolla and the Camry became synonymous with reliability, attracting a loyal customer base.
Furthermore, Toyota’s dedication to innovation became evident with the introduction of hybrid technology. The Toyota Prius, launched in 1997, became the world’s first mass-produced hybrid car, demonstrating the company’s commitment to environmentally friendly solutions.
Sustainability and Future Outlook
As concerns about environmental sustainability grew, Toyota positioned itself as a leader in producing eco-friendly vehicles. The company continued to develop hybrid technology and invested in research for electric and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. This commitment aligns with Toyota’s vision of creating a more sustainable and mobility-oriented future.
The journey of Toyota Motor Corporation from its formation on August 28, 1937, to its current status as a global automotive giant is a testament to its dedication to innovation, quality, and sustainability. From humble beginnings to pioneering manufacturing techniques and shaping the future of mobility, Toyota’s impact on the automotive industry and the world at large is undeniable. As the company continues to evolve, its legacy of excellence and forward-thinking will undoubtedly shape the road ahead.

Chanda Kumawat is a 43-year old female farmer living in Morra Village with her husband, Badrilal Kumawat, and three children. She owns 1.75 ha of land, of which 0.5 ha is located in a different village with poor soil quality. Chanda has traditionally been the sole family member responsible for the planting, cultivation, and harvesting of her household’s agricultural plots, as her children were pursuing other career paths and/or academic degrees. Prior to July 2014, her husband migrated for about 10 months every year to Ahmedabad1 to work as a scrap dealer and laborer in a steel polishing factory.
When JIVA initiated its program in Morra in 2013, Chanda attended the community meetings and became a keen observer of JIVA’s resilient agriculture and accountable education activities. In May 2014, Chanda was selected as a sorghum demo plot farmer, and her sorghum yield increased by 17%2 due to her adoption of practices advised by JIVA.
When JIVA introduced its crop diversification initiative, Chanda encouraged her husband to enroll as a participant on a pomegranate exposure visit to Nasik.3 Following a positive experience, Chanda advocated for the allocation of 0.25 ha of her land to pomegranate. Chanda and her husband planted 150 pomegranates in July 20144 and an additional 80 plants on 0.125 ha the following year. During the dry season, due to the lack of continuous irrigation,5 Chanda convinced her brothers-in-law to install drip irrigation on her land from the well the family shared. The drip irrigation system is now used to irrigate the family’s pomegranate and cotton.
The Kumawat family is happy with the performance of the pomegranate plants’ growth, flowering, and taste. In July 2017, the family sold 350 kg of pomegranate to earn $900 in income, in addition to consuming and giving away some of their harvest to relatives and friends. These initial results are even more impressive considering that pomegranate yields are expected to at least quadruple over the next 2-3 years, leading up to the plants reaching full maturity. Chanda has taken steps to protect her family’s new high-value crop, re-investing nearly $600 to fence in her pomegranate field this past year.
“Chanda has also shared her learnings on vermi-composting and pomegranates with her uncle, who later began producing vermi-compost, has planted about 400 pomegranates in his fields in a village about 12 km from Morra.”
Chanda is now successfully producing and applying vermi-compost to her crops and fruit plants. After gaining confidence in JIVA by participating in the sorghum crop demo, she has adopted best practices for her wheat crop by using a seed drill to ensure proper line sowing. Her son, who runs a shop in the village and had never taken an interest in agriculture, now visits and helps maintain the pomegranate orchard. Chanda has shared her learnings with relatives outside the JIVA project area, and an uncle who lives in a village 7 miles from Morra now produces vermi-compost and has planted 400 pomegranates. Chanda’s willingness to adopt best agricultural practices have transformed her farm into a model for the community, and her fields are featured by JIVA staff during intra-JIVA exposure visits.6
In addition to agriculture, Chanda has taken an interest in JIVA’s initiative to improve the quality of education in the villages. She attends the majority of JIVA’s education meetings and was elected as a Vice-Chairperson of the School Management Committee (SMC). Chanda regularly visits the school and participates in all SMC meetings. Chanda cannot stop smiling while she says that her husband has all but ended his migration to Ahmedabad since July 2014, having traveled for just two months over the past year.
1 The largest city in the state of Gujarat, over 200 miles southwest of Morra.
2 Compared to the control plot.
3 An ancient holy city in the state of Maharashtra, 450 miles south of Morra.
4 Though 40 plants died, they were replaced with new seedlings in February 2015.
5 As electricity for irrigation was mainly at night.
6 An “intra-JIVA” exposure visit is when JIVA farmers travel to another JIVA farm to see and understand the successful pomegranate and intercropping practices of a farmer within the project area. Whereas exposure visits were initially external to the JIVA project area, the first intra-project exposure visit occurred in December 2015 as JIVA farmers adopted best practices and became model farmers.

One was The Family of Man, which contained the photos from an exhibition (organized by world-famous photographer Edward Steichen) at the Museum of Modern Art in 1955. This book was, in fact, the official book of the exhibition. I don’t know if my parents went to New York to see the exhibit (how I wish I’d asked!) or if they took me (I would have been very young) … but I know that as a child I loved that book.
I still have it. I asked for it when I left home at eighteen.
And I can tell you that the book influenced me in profound ways, that I looked at it over and over and over. As a kid. As a teen. As a young adult. The people in the photos are, truly, as familiar to me as my own family. (Oh, but hey—they are.)
I have wondered if my travel-lust has its roots in this book. And I have wondered if my anti-racism has its roots in this book. My husband says it is because these people were different from me that I was fascinated and perhaps that is true. But the lesson here is still the same: current thinking to teach anti-racism is that we must see race, not ignore it (as we were taught fifty years ago—to be colorblind).


Auri Mitchell and Lamont Doneghy auditioned for and earned places in the Bluegrass All-Regional Honor Band, and they performed with the group earlier this month.
The two Danville High School seniors talked about what the honor meant for them and what the experience was like.
Mitchell, who plays the flute and piccolo for the DHS band, participated in the Bluegrass All-Regional Honor Band last year and remembered enjoying it, so she tried out again this year.
“I knew it was fun, and I would get to meet more talented people and people who are better than me, and it was a little bit of a humbling experience,” she said.
She also said she was confident she would make it through the audition process. The opportunity allowed her to get private lessons, gain more knowledge and learn better techniques.
Doneghy, who plays saxophone for the DHS band, didn’t do the honor band last year, so he wanted to attend this year.
“This showed me a lot of music I had never seen before, like a march,” he said.
He found the pieces the honor band played more difficult than he was used to, which was good exposure because in college, he wants to study music education.
Mitchell wants to study psychology, but she said she is also considering a minor in music. It’s been a part of her life for a long time, she said — her mother played the flute, and her family is very musical, she said.
“I do still want music to be a part of my life,” she said. “I just feel like, after putting in seven years already, there was no reason to quit now.”
The Bluegrass All-Regional Honor Band exposed Mitchell and Doneghy to a lot of talent. The director was head of bands at Morehead State University, Doneghy said, and there was a lot of talent among their peers with the honor band as well, which Mitchell said made her realize she wanted to practice more and try harder.
“It taught me that I should probably step up my game,” Mitchell said.
In addition to the flute and piccolo and the saxophone, Mitchell and Doneghy also both play guitar, Doneghy plays some piano, and Mitchell said she can “dabble” in some brass instruments.

Some of the projects I worked on Most of these were projects I worked on at Liftov with a team of kickass developers and concepters.
“Creating an app that helps kids (with a migration background)
with the age of 2–3 to improve their speech”
This is a project I did at Liftov. There was already a prototype version that was used for testing
when I started working there. But that one needed some UX/UI changes and new levels. Levels
that had to be illustrated and tell a story. So I had to create some new worlds in the style of the
previous designer and bring it to life with the current Liftov developers.
Illustration, Storytelling, Character Design, UX/UI design
“We want an app that helps children (age 4–6) with reading
issues to improve their reading skills.”
This is a game I worked on at Liftov. The existing prototype needed a redesign, a story, some
changes concerning the game mechanics and some concept tweaking.

And we need it next month..”
This is a project I did at Liftov for EY, it was a method for the summerschool workshops. Both

After winning a national contest via Facebook, Patrice Judge of Kettering and five hand-picked friends will be treated to dinner tonight at Captain D’s restaurant, prepared by the seafood chain’s executive chef, Jason Henderson.
“I mean, who wins contests, right?” Judge asked. “But I’m a fan of Captain D’s — I’ve been eating there for seven years — so when I saw the contest on Facebook, I just clicked on it.”
About a month ago, Judge came home from work and found a notice in the mail that she had, in fact, been chosen at random as the winner of the Captain D’s contest, in which the chain’s executive chef would travel to the Captain D’s of her choosing to cook a custom dinner for her and five friends, among other prizes. Captain D’s operates restaurants in Kettering, Huber Heights, Middletown, Fairfield and Greenville among the more than 500 it operates nationwide.
The Captain D’s chef’s table is set up for 6:30 tonight, June 20, at the store at 1401 E. Dorothy Lane. Henderson, aka “Chef Jason,” said in a telephone interview Wednesday night just before boarding a plane to Cincinnati on his way to Dayton that he’ll cook the entrees of the contest winner’s choice, and will also prepare a sneak peek of new menu items for Judge and her friends.
Although fried battered fish is still the traditional mainstay of Captain D’s, the chain’s menu is expanding. Henderson said a new grill will be installed at the Kettering location by the end of the year that will allow the restaurant to offer grilled salmon and grilled tilapia along with the fried menu items. The new menu also will expand soup, appetizer and dessert offerings, Henderson said. Breaded pickles and fried green tomatoes were recently added to the menu, along with cornmeal-breaded catfish.
Tonight’s promotional event comes one day after news broke that the parent company of Captain D’s has put the chain up for sale, according to Dow Jones & Co.
The chain has rebounded since it was acquired by Sun Capital in 2010, recording sales increases in each of the last two years, according to Dow Jones.

New research in the UK highlights the benefits of urban habitats for bees and other pollinators. Whilst the focus of this research from Bristol University was on ground level habitats for pollinators, there is great potential to increase the forage habitat available for pollinators at roof level.
Green roofs are already known to provide valuable space for pollinators, especially bees, in urban areas. Furthermore the type of habitat that can found on green roofs is often less likely to be encountered at ground level in cities - namely ‘dry’ grasslands associated with open mosaic habitats. These habitats are generally found on previously developed land known as brownfield land. In many cases these sites are some of the most important habitats for pollinators, especially rare bees, in the UK. In London, a majority of the green roofs that have been installed over the last 15 years have been designed with this kind of biodiversity provision in mind and many are on developments that were built on brownfields.

The largest green roof installed at the Olympics to meet the Olympic Biodiversity Action Plan (OBAP) has already excelled in delivering biodiversity. The Media Centre is not only a green roof biodiversity, however, it is also combined with solar panels. An example of how renewable energy and biodiversity targets can be meet on one roof. A survey in 2014, undertaken by the University of East London (as yet unpulblished) shows that the species targeted by the action plan and the design have all managed to take up residence on the roof.

With careful planting, the implementation of the green roof has been able to attract some rare and important species. Bombus humilisis one of our rarer solitary bees; several individuals were seen foraging on the green roof. Furthermore a rare moth Toadflax Brocade Calophasia lunula, another target species, was noted on the roof. Its larvae feed on Linaria species. Linaria purpurea is relatively abundant on the Media Centre roof and during the late summer attracted a surprisingly large number of Toadflax Brocade caterpillars that feed on this species along with Linaria vulgare.

Ecologists and nature conservationists will acknowledge that the provision of good native wildflowers for pollinators is an important design consideration for green roofs. However, when it comes to designing green roofs with solar panels this can all too often be overlooked. Energy production can override consideration of how the green roof is designed.
Good ecosystem services design can ensure that renewable energy delivery can also achieve good habitat for pollinators in urban areas. The opportunites for improved populations of bees, butterflies and other pollinators in cities across Europe is huge. London is ensuring that green roofs are installed on new developments as well as having distinct renewable energy targets for new developments. Combining these targets on roofs is win win situation.
There are 175,000m2 of green roofs in Central London. Of these just over 5% are combined with solar panels. Whilst there has been increased interest within the solar industry in UK to place solar on roofs, this should not be at the expense of green roofs and biodiversity. We should be combining both technologies and refining designs to ensure the maximum benefit for pollinators.

In the renovation of retail premises and restaurants there comes a time when we must decide the material that will best help us achieve our goals. Wood is undoubtedly the best option. Here’s why.
The main reason for renovating premises is to give it a new look. Either because it has changed ownership, because it has redirected or expanded its activity or because its appearance has become outdated, the main reason to initiate a renovation project is usually aesthetics.
Renovating with wood ensures that a business will have a new modern and fashionable face, as wood has become a trend and we can rest assured that the image of the premises will be completely updated.
Wood is not only used in furniture, but also, as wood cladding, both on walls and ceilings. In these cases, it also provides the advantage of improving the acoustics of the room, helping to control that annoying reverberation and offering an increasingly demanded acoustic comfort. Spigogroup has different alternatives available, including Spigoacustic acoustic panels, Spigotec false wood ceilings, Spigoline solid wood slat cladding and Spigoplank decorative wood cladding.
Finally, wood is a recyclable and renewable material, so that it perfectly complies with the points of corporate social responsibility of companies that propose a sustainable business model in all its facets.

An analysis of Navy inventory models and a proposal for non-automated ships
Gorman, Howard Paul
MetadataShow full item record
The theoretical background of the Navy's inventory models is presented and the problems inherent in the models are discussed. The four principal Navy inventory models are described and evaluated, i.e., the Uniform Inventory Control Program (UICP) model, Variable Operating and Safety Level (VOSL) - the stock point model, the Shipboard Uniform Automated Data Processing System SUADPS), and the non-automated afloat model. A new approach to Navy inventory management is presented. This new approach requires the models to be based on theory that assumes only information that can be accurately predicted and to operate using all such information that results in better inventory policies. It also requires the inventory manager to define his objective in reorder point determinations. A detailed proposed new model for non automated ships, based on the new approach, is presented. The proposed model minimizes customer requisitions short subject to a constraint on average inventory investment and was found to be clearly superior to the present model based on computer simulation results.

Last year, Iceland – the country best known for Bjork and bankruptcy – banned prostitution. Now, they’re going one step further and banning strippers. According to the Guardian, these actions make Iceland the most feminist country on earth. Yes, it’s awesome that they have an almost 50-percent female representation in government, but that’s not enough for me. Simply banning an industry doesn’t actually end an industry. After all, I grew up in a state where sex toys were illegal, but it didn’t stop people from obtaining them in other ways. If Iceland really wanted to be feminist, I’d suggest they go the way of the Dutch – legalize prostitution, and then regulate the industry in order to protect sex workers and make all women feel more safe. Considering that they’re broke right now, they might want to consider taking a hefty tax off of things that people will willingly pay for when times are tough. Here’s a hint: sex is one of those things.
“It is not acceptable that women or people in general are a product to be sold,” said Prime Minister Johanna Sigurðardottir (who, as Salon points out, is the world’s first openly gay head of state). Hey, I’m on board with that sentiment, but it’s wrong to assume that everyone who works in the sex industry is an indentured servant. If you want to get really technical, do film stars selling their images for commercials and product endorsements count as a form of selling themselves? How many of Iceland’s sex workers are trafficked women, and how many are women who entered the profession willingly as a way to make money?I don’t know if banning stripping is about protecting women or about imposing one group’s morals on another.
I’d like to close with a joke that a Finnish friend told me about Iceland.
Q: What do you do when you find yourself in a forest in Iceland?
A: Stand up.


Hyundai Reveals 2017 i30 – Will India Get It?
The third generation i30 will be the first model from the South Korean automaker to feature a high-performance version under Hyundai’s ‘N’ brand.
Hyundai has revealed the third-generation i30 ahead of the upcoming 2016 Paris Motor Show. The hatchback will make its public debut at the Motor Show in the first week of October. It will go on sale in Europe in early 2017 and will also inspire a first-ever high-performance model under Hyundai’s ‘N’ brand sometime next year.
Design and features
Similar to all the latest Hyundais, the new i30’s styling is sharp and edgy, courtesy the adoption of the automaker’s Fluidic Sculpture 2.0 design language. At the front, the 2017 i30 features Hyundai's new signature grille – Cascading grille – which made its debut with the recently revealed second-generation i10 facelift (Grand i10) and will also become a design element for future models.
The headlights feature a three-projector set-up, offering all-LED lighting (both high as well as low beam). The fog lamp housing borrows design inspiration from the new Elantra and features vertically placed daytime running LEDs along with projector fog lamps.
Speaking of the side profile, the vehicle will come with an option of 17, 16 and 15-inch alloy wheels. It features a long bonnet and sloping roofline along with a contrasting black spoiler. The rear profile sports wrap-around LED tail lamps and high-positioned fog lamps.
On the inside, the dashboard features a symmetric layout with a mounted touchscreen-based infotainment system. The 2017 i30 offers features such as an electronically adjustable driver’s seats with memory settings and inductive wireless charging for smartphones, among others. There are two capacitive touchscreen infotainment systems – a five-inch and an eight-inch – on offer. The latter comes with support for Apple CarPlay and Google Android Auto, and is also available in the recently launched Elantra. The new i30 offers a luggage capacity of 395 litres.
In terms of safety features, the i30 comes with seven airbags including a knee airbag. It also features Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), Driver Attention Alert (DAA), Blind Spot Detector (BSD), Rear-Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA), Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) and High Beam Assist (HBA), among others.
The 2017 i30 will be the first to be equipped with Hyundai’s 1.4-litre T-GDi turbocharged petrol motor. This engine puts out 140PS and 242Nm, and will be offered with a six-speed manual or a seven-speed DCT (dual-clutch automatic). Remaining engine options include a 1.0-litre T-GDi three-cylinder turbo petrol and a 1.4-litre naturally aspirated petrol along with a 1.6-litre CRDi diesel engine (in two power states). Transmission options will include a six-speed manual or a seven-speed DCT
Possibility of the i30 being introduced in India
Not very long ago, Hyundai showcased the outgoing i30 at the 2016 Indian Auto Expo. Having said this, the company hasn’t said anything about the launch of the hatchback in India. In India, we do not have a segment for hatchbacks that are placed between premium and luxury ones and sadly the i30 falls in that particular space. So, the chances of the new i30’s introduction in India appear bleak, however, if Hyundai launches it in the country, the segment might take off just like the manufacturer made the premium hatchback segment popular with the i20. The automaker is likely to introduce the high performance ‘N’ brand in India, if not the i30, since performance-oriented vehicles are gaining popularity in the country.

Despite suffering an Achilles injury earlier this season, David Nwaba has secured a bag for the coming year, as he has been signed by the Houston Rockets to a two-year deal.
Nwaba will earn $900K to finish the season, with team option for 2020-21, according to Shams Charania from The Athletic. The 27 year-old will remain sidelined for the resumed season at Orlando.
The Cal Poly product played 20 games this season where he averaged 5.2 points and 2.3 rebounds per game.
In order to have room for Nwaba to make the roster, Houston cut Center, Isaiah Hartenstein. The 22 year-old German was the G-League Finals MVP for the Rio Grande Valley Vipers last season, but still couldn't find minutes in Mike D'Antoni's rotation.
