Academic Year and Language of Instruction

Academic Year in Poland

The academic year in Poland has been separated into two semesters – the winter and the summer semester. The duration of each semester is 15-weeks.

The Winter Semester

The winter semester begins in October and ends in mid-February along with a short vacation of about ten days for the Christmas. The examination session generally lasts for two to three weeks, commencing in January.

The Summer Semester

The summer semester begins in mid-February and ends in June, with a one-week vacation for Easter. Summer vacation usually lasts for three months from the beginning of July to the end of September, but only for those who have passed all exams within the summer assessment sessions (two-three weeks in June). Those who have failed the exams need to re-take in September.

Language of Instruction in Poland

Poland has a tradition of multi-lingual education in its schools and universities. Of course, Polish is the primary language and is taught compulsorily, but many other foreign languages such as English, French, and German are also included in higher education.

Language of Instruction Pre-Primary Education
There is no requirement to learn foreign lingos at this level. They are not comprised in the curriculum. Still, most children start foreign languages in pre-primary schooling. The learning method involves 'playing' with a specified language, by means of new method and techniques suitable for children. The most common foreign tongues are English, German and French.

Language of Instruction at Primary Education
In primary schooling a single foreign language is compulsory from the first grade. This condition can transform for the better after 2014, once a new education restructuring will be fully effective. The most prevalent foreign languages are English, German and French. The state of affairs in primary education is positive.

Language of Instruction at Secondary Education
Throughout secondary education scholars continue to study the overseas language selected in primary school. They, correspondingly, start a second foreign language in the very first year of secondary level. Two foreign languages are mandatory and students can select their second foreign language from among English, French, German, Russian, and Spanish. In some institutes, students are trained in Chinese. There are subordinate schools with an intercontinental baccalaureate (CIB) and the syllabus is based on contents as well as language education.

Language of Instruction at Higher Education
At the professional training level, the learning of extraneous languages faces many difficulties: the curriculum and syllabus is shaped locally. Vocational schools are sovereign in building their final linguistic requirements; though, there is connection to the CEFR. The class assurance and procedures linked with final assessment are not widespread. One of the possible changes could be the overview of a common platform for negotiation between vocational establishments in order to craft common external language requirements containing a syllabus and final examination.

Universities have obligatory foreign language courses in their packages. The colleges in Poland are autonomous and the programme of a specified subject should be accepted by the Faculty Board. It is very problematic to regulate foreign language programmes at universities.

Poland has endured substantial modifications in the area of education. A range of European documents have shaped a common agenda for making Polish people more conscious of being European residents. The quantity of pupils learning foreign languages at universities is continuously rising, with a prevalence of English taught to 89% of all learners at primary, lower, and secondary schools in the 2010-2011 academic session.

But these Dutch schoolchildren, at least, are hoping the Union’s leaders can thrash-out a final deal on the constitutional treaty at their summit in Brussels today and tomorrow (17-18 June).

11:30 AM - 1:30 PM
11:15 AM Registration
$50 to attend (lunch included) | Complimentary for members of the KC Chamber's Public Policy Council

With growing anxiety over economic, political, and social divides, the national and regional economies are not delivering prosperity for all, challenging business leaders and policymakers nationwide.

Speakers for this important session will include:
Brookings Fellow Joe Parilla
Nashville Chamber President Ralph Schulz
Indianapolis Chamber Chief Policy Officer Mark Fisher

Please join us for this provocative dialogue to help regional leaders apply a new lens to economic inclusivity in greater Kansas City.

BURGER KING® - Cheese hater

Voiceover, Dialog, Spoken Text, Script, or Lyrics

(English Translation)

The nearest supermarket is 2000 kilometers away. So, we do what we can for food. Cha! That was the kitchen. Let's go to the living room.

Geographically, here we are at the antipode of France. Here's the Earth. Here's Paris. Draw a straight line and you end up here. It's not perfect, but it's not France. Because France is the land of cheese, what's why. And cheese has never been possible.

Are you mad doing that in front of him?

And it was the same at work.

As you can see on the "camembert" pie chart, camembert, camembert, camembert...

Here I live in perfect harmony with nature. Be careful. There are monkeys. Is anyone there?
Well, yes, yes. I miss my family. Especially my son.

Mr. Crow perched on a tree. Was holding in his beak a piece of chee... chicken.
That's my boy.

Champion. Cheese is mice's favorite food. Once you know that, you understand everything. Yeah, it needs thinking about. So the day I found out Burger King was creating Cheese Lovers - burgers with cheese all over - cheese sauce, cheese bread, cheese slices, I moved to the other side of the world. I had no choice.

Currently the Cheese Lover. Unique burgers for those who are crazy about cheese. (simply crazy you mean).

And why not steak with cheese. Come on!

PRI Integration for Fitness and Movement - St. Louis, MO - Course in Review

James and I traveled to Missouri this past weekend to present PRI Integration for Fitness and Movement. Special Thanks to Steve Long and the Complete Fitness Results staff for their wonderful attention and assistance hosting.

Also special thanks to Nancy Hammond, PT, PRC for all her coordination and support getting this course to St. Louis.

We had an AWESOME group! Thank you to all that attended! We introduced the PRI Science and covered key principles to shape trunk stabilization and empower proper grounding and single leg control. Lots of lab time was valued on Sunday. Our focus was dedicated to helping attendees feel and connect with the programming material and learn how to organize the pelvic thorax mechanics to optimize proximal control. This course does a great job tying key concepts together and helping to get our clients moving in and out of movement patterns. So grateful for this group! It really was a great weekend!

When young learners are performing below average in school, how can we close the learning gap? In this study, researchers partnered with Universidad Cayetano Heredia to design and evaluate the impact of a program aimed at helping low-performing students—mostly from low-income urban households—master basic skills in science.  Through an innovative, remedial, inquiry-based approach, in which students engage in hands-on practical work, tutors and students met after school once a week for sixteen weeks during the school year. Despite low levels of participation, the program overall significantly improved students’ test scores by .12 standard deviations, although gains were all concentrated among boys.

Policy Issue
Improving learning among low-achieving students is a particular challenge in education. Recent evidence1 suggests low-performing students who have fallen behind in school respond positively to targeted, self-paced teaching aimed at mastering basic skills, and that this type of education can be effective at closing achievement gaps. The evidence on remedial education, however, is mostly limited to improving basic mathematics and literacy skills. Remedial education2, as it is called, has improved short- and medium-term academic performance in various settings. This study evaluated experimentally the impact of a targeted, inquiry-based, remedial science education program for low-achieving 3rd-grade students in 48 low-income public elementary schools in Metropolitan Lima, Peru.
Context of the Evaluation

Peruvian students consistently underperform in math and science. In the Second Regional Comparative Education Study (SERCE), for instance, Peruvian students scored below the Latin American average in both subjects3. In third grade mathematics, more than half of the student population was below basic proficiency levels4. In the 2012 application of the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA), Peruvian students ranked last, among the 65 participating countries, in both math and natural science5. About a third of all participating Peruvian students placed in the lowest proficiency level in science, meaning they had not mastered even the most basic skills. These assessments suggest that Peruvian students lack critical abilities, such as analyzing and synthesizing information, applying new knowledge in real-life settings, and reasoning.

In an effort to improve science teaching and learning, Peru’s Ministry of Education has been collaborating with the Universidad Cayetano Heredia since 2010 on diverse initiatives to identify the best solutions for comprehensive K-College reform.

Universidad Cayetano Heredia, the main implementation partner, has a long track record developing and implementing educational initiatives, and is invested in pursuing rigorous research to help improve learning and achievement in Peruvian schools.

Details of the Intervention

To test if remedial, inquiry-based, science education—taught by trained science tutors—improves students’ science test-score performance, researchers carried out a randomized evaluation in which half of the lowest performing students in participating schools in metropolitan Lima received a remedial science program. Specifically, the program targeted third-grade children whose prior science achievement placed them in the bottom half of their school. Approximately 1,200 students in 48 randomly chosen public schools in Lima participated in the study.

In the spring of 2014, third grade students from selected schools took a baseline diagnostic science test. Of those who placed in the lower half of the school distribution, half were randomly selected to receive tutoring through a lottery that stratified by school and gender. The remaining half of the lower-scoring students continued with business-as-usual school activities.

The first stage of the program consisted of tutor recruitment and pre-service training. Prior to the start of the school year, Universidad Cayetano Heredia selected potential tutors—preferably women that could serve as role models for girls—who were either science schoolteachers or college students majoring in pedagogy. The tutors participated in a 20-hour introductory training course.

The second stage of the program was the remedial instruction itself. Tutoring groups were composed of five to six students per tutor/school. Tutors met with students once a week for 16 weeks at each school after regular hours between mid-June and November of 2014. Typical sessions began with a challenge/question. Tutors guided students in the formulation of hypotheses, design of experiments, and discussion of their findings. Students were then encouraged to formulate preliminary answers based on prior knowledge, acquire new information through experimentation and reading, re-structure prior knowledge, establish conclusions and apply the new knowledge to unfamiliar situations.

At the end of the tutoring program, students took a test similar to the one used at baseline.

Results and Policy Lessons

Overall, participation in the remedial instruction program was low -- students attended an average of five to six remedial sessions, or about 40 percent of the total number of sessions initially scheduled. This was equivalent to only a four to five percent increase in total science instruction time over the school year.

Despite low participation, students assigned to the remedial sessions scored .12 standard deviations higher on average on a science test after the program. However, these improvements were concentrated exclusively among boys, for whom gains were .22 standard deviations, while there was no statistically significant effect for girls. Moreover, there were no improvements among the lowest-performing 10 percent of students.

Boys and girls attended the same number of remedial sessions on average, so the unequal effect for boys was not driven by participation. Instead, observation of classrooms suggests boys may have received preferential treatment from tutors over girls.

These findings suggest that low-performing students can learn through inquiry-based pedagogical approaches. The targeted, inquiry-based remedial science education model could easily be expanded to provide intensive academic support at a large scale for students who fall behind. Since the tutors are local and the training is short, the project would be straightforward to replicate.

However, to bring this remedial science education model to scale, two important challenges remain. First, a challenge remains to identify instructional models that help mitigate instructor stereotypes and attitudes with regards to gender and science. Second, the overall effectiveness of the remedial education model was achieved in spite of low student participation. Participation may improve by more clearly disseminating the program and promoting its benefits among parents and students. Since many students are either economically active or provide help at home by taking care of younger siblings, a more flexible schedule could also help improve participation.

Permanent Bailout

It’s deja vu all over again: the Obama administration and Congressional Democrats are trying to rush a 1,400-page financial regulation bill through Congress before anyone finds out what is in it. As Paul noted yesterday, the issue polls well and the Dems are desperate for a winning campaign theme.
The financial services industry is already heavily regulated; some would say that is more the problem than the solution. What would the Democrats’ new layer of regulation accomplish? Republicans charge that the bill institutionalizes federal bailouts, making them a permanent feature of the regulatory landscape. Economist Larry Linsdey explains in a memo to John Boehner:

To date, public attention has focused on whether the bill is a “bailout” bill that will keep “too big to fail” alive. You be the judge. First, the bill contains a $50 billion fund for resolution of systemically risky institutions. The bill allows a 2/3 vote of the Financial Stability Oversight Council to deem any firm (financial or non-financial) as coming under its rubric and then authorizes the FDIC and Treasury Secretary to treat each of the firm’s shareholders and creditors as they choose, without regard to bankruptcy law. Second, the bill gives the Treasury and the FDIC authority to grant an unlimited number of loan guarantees to systemically risky institutions. No Congressional authorization or appropriation is required. Third, the bill gives the Fed the authority to fund any “program” to assist these institutions accepting as collateral anything it deems appropriate. So perhaps too big to fail is dead. How could any firm actually fail when all of its debt could be guaranteed by the Treasury, the Fed could print money to assist it, and just in case, there was $50 billion sitting around to reassure nervous creditors that they would be repaid regardless what contract or bankruptcy law said? Needless to say, the large Wall Street firms aren’t complaining; they will permanently benefit from having lower borrowing costs thanks to these provisions, the same way Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac enjoyed implicit guarantees.

Wall Street has supported Democrats two-to-one over Republicans in recent campaign cycles. This, perhaps, is the payoff the Street has been waiting for.
It is also worth noting that the bailout bill, like the health care takeover and other Obama-era legislation, is national socialist in nature. The banks remain nominally private, but will be controlled by, and gradually turned into instruments of, the national government.
UPDATE: A reader adds:

I have spent the last 15 years of my life in a senior position in the financial services industry. It is indeed a highly regulated industry.
Some of that regulation is necessary and effective. Much of it is not. Regulation has managed to all but destroy the sub $1B IPO market that was the life blood of innovation, capital access and venture capital returns. As a result, Silicon Valley has become Death Valley and the venture industry is scrambling to even justify itself. AOL, Intel, and Apple are just a few of the names that started life as scrappy, shaky efforts holding on by their fingernails and looking to hopeful, risk-taking money in the public markets. None of those companies could be built today.
Why didn’t the dot com bust of 2001 bring down the whole economy? Because there WERE consequences in failure and there was no bailout.
Instead of addressing real problems like the death of venture industry at the hands of Elliot Spitzer and Sarbanes Oxley, the Dodd financial reform package embraces one of the self-serving myths of the financial crises.
Hank Paulson and Timothy Geithner were convinced they “didn’t have enough tools” to deal with financial crisis. The Dodd package is designed to “provide them tools”. As we know, Washington is like the proverbial hammer for which every problem is a nail. See a problem? Throw “regulation”, however misguided, at it. Now they have just added hard cold cash to the equation. And of course you can always trust Washington with a check book.
The real problem was that Paulson and Geithner were simply too incompetent to use the tools at their disposal and too conceited and arrogant to recognize that thousands of highly professional and highly capable financial services executives could and did do just fine without them. The vast majority of banks and brokerages in the country were perfectly healthy. An excellent study by the Minneapolis Fed confirmed that. The investment bank I worked for split itself into “bad bank” and “good bank” a year before the crisis after it saw Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac start to pull back from the sub-prime market. Did our firm get a bailout? No. Bad bank sucked wind. Good bank prospered. End of story. Risk contained.
The crisis was first and foremost a political crisis driven by opportunists and ignorami. The problem was simple: $2T of over-rated and mis-priced AAA mortgage backed securities has been pumped in to the financial system. Much of the blame for that fakery rested on the government itself. Instead of laser focusing on that problem (which Ben Bernanke eventually took care of by monetizing $1T of long dated securities in February of 2009), the Dodd Frank Pelosi Reid crowd launched into pure ignorant hysteria. This confidence-rattling hysteria, Hank Paulson’s wheeler dealer approach to the problem, and confusion around the application of Basel II accounting rules on valuing balance sheets, did as much to shake the markets as any “greed” on Wall Street.

Look & Listen

Another biblical epic from the early ’60s, starring Anthony Quinn instead of Charlton Heston. Produced by Dino De Laurentis and filmed in Italy, Barabbas is based on the novel of Nobel Prize winner Pär Lagerkvist and is worthwhile for either fans of the film genre or those curious about the flip-side of the crucifixion fable.
This blockbuster animated feature stars a princess, a fire-breathing dragon, an ogre, a talking donkey, magic and mythical creatures, and more than its fair share of self-referential industry jokes. But the real stars are the voice characterizations by Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz and John Lithgow.
Apocalypse Now/Heart of Darkness
What happened while filming Apocalypse Now nearly killed Francis Ford Coppola, and his career has not been the same since. The hell that he went through on the set of his landmark Vietnam war opus has been immortalized in the incomparable documentary, included in this two-film box set.
A classic comedy from ther ’80s with all the pre-PC accoutrements: drinking, drugs, class wars, teenage sex, and mass destruction. Dangerfield is beyond uncouth, Chevy Chase is too weird for words, Knight is more uptight than the Pope, and Murray is just plain crazy. It’s still a riot for those who aren’t easily offended.

England’s indie drone-rock band Tram creates a stark and simple expression of woe, spiritually descended from ’60s folk artists like Nick Drake, Scott Walker, and Leonard Cohen. Their music is dark, fragile and mournful, yet maintains a light touch, keeping the melancholy to a minimum, and letting the music do the talking.
Ladybug Transistor: The Albermarle Sound
Armed with baroque arrangements and throwback LP artwork, this Brooklyn quintet wholeheartedly embraces post-hippie, pre-punk marshmallow pop, complete with slightly sour strings, horns, waltzes and one spectacular faux-Spanish instrumental. Recommended to Pet Sounds fans who aren’t above embracing Bread or Simon & Garfunkel.
Johnny Otis: Creepin’ With the Cats: The Legendary Dig Masters, Vol. 1.
Jump rhythm and blues from the man that made the crossover from big band to rockabilly in the ’60s. With his strong instrumentals (especially the slinky, scatty drum work) and occasional vocals, Otis revolutionized a sound that is sadly missing from today’s blues scene.
Fauré – Piano Quartets 1 and 2
The Schubert Ensemble of London’s playing is an utter joy, especially in the expansive “Allegro molto moderato” movement of the 1st Quartet. Simon Blendis’ violin is charming, and the piano mastery of William Howard adds a genuine spice to the proceedings. The maturity and passion of Fauré’s music is distilled with almost whimsical beauty.

For the millions who watched back in 1999, her face is frozen in time. She’ll always be the 14-year-old girl from Tampa, Fla., with the glasses and dark shoulder-length hair, her arms raised while leaping for joy.

But that was a half-life ago for Nupur Lala. Like all bee winners, she’s since had to deal with the perks, drawbacks and stereotypes that come with the title — all magnified because she won the same year the competition was featured in an Oscar-nominated documentary.

She became a role model for those who realized it’s OK to be nerdy. She became a trend-setter, starting a run in which 10 of 14 national bee winners have been Indian-American, including the last five.

Today, she’s 28 and finishing up a master’s degree in cancer biology with plans to enroll in the University of Texas Medical School in Houston, having changed course from a career plan that had her researching memory and the brain for three years at MIT. She now aspires to be a physician scientist.

“My intellectual inspirations are so meandering. I blame that on the Spelling Bee sometimes,” Lala said with a laugh. “There are so many interesting things in the dictionary to study.”

Lala will be watching this week when the 86th Scripps National Spelling Bee takes place near the nation’s capital — her friends tease that her life “shuts down” during the bee — but she’ll see a spectacle that’s changed much since she graced the stage. The finals are now broadcast in prime time. A vocabulary test is being added this year for the first time. And the bee’s popularity has skyrocketed, in part because of Lala and the other spellers featured in the documentary “Spellbound,” a film that made smart people cool long before “The Big Bang Theory.”

“I’m amazed at the sea change,” Lala said in a telephone interview. “Because when I was a speller, that was one thing you totally hid. I remember like not even wanting to tell people what I was doing over the weekend when I was competing in the regional spelling bee. It was that big of a liability. And now I see that, yeah, people want to be nerds. I think that’s great.”

Lala is the first to say that winning the national bee has been an overwhelming positive in her life, even if does get tiresome to have people repeatedly asking her to spell her winning word — “logorrhea” — or to realize that her reputation can unfairly put her on a pedestal in an academic setting.

“I’ve had people say ‘I expect more of you because I’ve seen what you are capable of,'” Lala said. “And that’s a huge honor — and also very daunting.”

Then there’s another set of emotions she feels every year when her name is mentioned by the Indian-Americans youngsters who now dominate the national bee. All of the recent winners, to some degree, have cited Lala as an inspiration.

“It’s absolutely overwhelming,” she said. “And I think especially as I’ve grown older and seeing how much I’ve wanted to emulate people in my life. Yeah, it’s very humbling every time I hear that. It feels like a lot of responsibility, to be perfectly honest. You become very conscious of that.”

There have also been a disproportionate number of recent winners interested in the brain and medicine, including several who said they wanted to grow up to be neurosurgeons. Lala pursued an undergraduate degree in brain, behavior and cognitive sciences at the University of Michigan, in part because of her experiences from the bee.

“Why do I remember certain words and not others? Why isn’t my memory so good for everything else?” she said. “That question sort of drew me into research.”

At least much of the terminology was familiar. After studying all those big words for the bee, a standard vocabulary test is a breeze.

“I remember taking the GRE years ago,” she said, “and how I had such an edge over other competitors because I basically studied the vocabulary component for the Spelling Bee.”

National Spelling Bee champions are a small and tight-knit group — Lala keeps tabs with many of her fellow winners — and she marvels that she had the nerve to pull off her win all those years ago. She turned down a chance to be featured on an MTV reality show that wanted to follow her through college; she wasn’t comfortable with the idea and didn’t feel she was crazy enough to be interesting.

Besides, there is life beyond the bee — and the public perception of what a bee winner should be — and that’s where Lala prefers to keep her focus, at least during the 51 weeks a year when she’s not glued to the television to see another successor crowned. Like Lala, this week’s champion will have a winning moment etched in America’s collective conscious and immortalized on the Internet, lasting long after he or she has grown up to pursue an impressive degree or career.

“It’s something that you fight quite a bit,” Lala said. “Especially now that I feel like I’m on a career path, it’s becoming a little bit easier. … People always thought of me as this nerdy, excitable, just-an-awkward kid. Now they can see me as somebody beyond that, I hope.”

In just a few days, a man dressed in a Santa Claus suit and wearing a white beard will enter a Portland-area thrift store, a soup kitchen, a church or some other place where people gather and start handing out envelopes – each with a crisp $100 bill inside.

It’s time for Portland’s Secret Santa to start making his rounds.

His publicist says Santa – his identity is a closely guarded secret – plans to give away $20,000 this Christmas and is turning to social media for ideas on potential locations that would be appropriate for him to hand out the cash. He tries to target places where he is likely to find people who need money the most.

He never announces when or where he is going to show up.

Last year, Secret Santa, who is a Portland-area businessman, rode a Metro bus that was traveling from Westbrook to Portland when he started handing out $100 bills. Each envelope contains a note that asks the recipients to spend the money to make their own holiday a happier one.

Since 2009, Portland’s Secret Santa has given $80,000 to complete strangers. One year he gave money away at a food bank in Brunswick and another year at a thrift store in Portland.

Attempts to contact Secret Santa were unsuccessful Monday, but Giovanna Moscoso, who represents his publicist – JCPR of Parsipanny, N.J. – said Santa’s schedule should be known within a few days. Of course, where and when he is going to appear is another closely guarded secret.

“Beyond helping our neighbors in need, Secret Santa’s secondary purpose is to spark an interest in others to participate in the spirit of the season,” Santa said in a statement released Monday by JCPR. “We encourage people to give what they can to help people that need a friendly hand and plant a seed of hope in these difficult times for those in desperate circumstances.”

Secret Santa is encouraging the public to contact him by email at [email protected] or on Facebook with ideas for places he can give money away.

Last Christmas, Portland’s Secret Santa also traveled to Aberdeen, N.J., where he handed out $100 bills to people shopping at a Goodwill store. He went to the New Jersey shore because he wanted to target people living in the area that was hardest hit by Superstorm Sandy.

Secret Santa started making public appearances in 2009 to help Maine families and individuals in need during the holiday season. His efforts were inspired by Kansas City’s Secret Santa, Larry Stewart, who reportedly gave away more than $1.3 million in $100 bills before his death in 2007.

SaaS and The Cloud

SaaS and The Cloud

Why SaaS? Because we both benefit.

SaaS---We-All-BenefitWe built PressWise as a cloud-based, Software-as-a-Service print MIS because we believe it is the best model for building long-term partnerships with our customers, based on a mutual respect for each other’s’ business. Working in the cloud we have the power to deploy updates and enhancements organically and with greater efficiency to our customers. Response times to feature and enhancement requests are shorter, and we are able to be nimble and scale our business as we need to.

Besides the lower upfront costs of a SaaS model vs a traditional MIS system, our customers benefit in many other ways too:

Faster Implementation

We set up your server and prep your PressWise system for you, loaded with dozens of product templates, finishing tasks and even pricing, so you can get up and running quicker. We provide a wealth of online “learn at your own pace” training tools including a video learning center library and extensive knowledge base. Implementation specialists, with years of print industry experience, are here to help you get started and realize all the benefits your PressWise system offers.

Ongoing Product Enhancements

We never charge ‘upgrade’ fees when a new version is released, so you’re never stuck with an out-of-date software system until you pay ‘catch-up’ maintenance fees – you always have access to the latest tools and features.  We also encourage customer suggestions and feedback as we continue to improve our service and grow with the needs of the PressWise community; in fact some of our current features started out as requests from customers asking us to help them overcome a particular challenge.

cloudLower IT Costs

Since we provide all the hosting technology and maintain PressWise for you, we bear the costs to maintain your system. There’s no need for you to buy expensive hardware and retain dedicated IT resources – we’ve got you covered! But since most print service providers aren’t interested in becoming SaaS software hosts, we offer a self-host version of PressWise just for you.

Less Risk

Since PressWise is offered on a monthly basis with no long term contracts, you aren’t left with an expensive hole in your pocket if things don’t work out. You don’t pay the huge upfront costs of other systems that can make it take so long to realize a positive ROI. We have heard horror tales from customers who invested tens of thousands of dollars in other systems only to dump them months later and lose their investment. We don’t want that to happen to you.

When you find your business growing and need more bandwidth or server space, PressWise will scale with your success.

Access and Visibility

PressWise is browser-based, so you can access it from any place, any time, so you always have access to shop floor and order information right at your fingertips.

The Mistress

Darlene - Verified Resident (Since 2004)

I nicknamed our house "The Mistress". The mountain views enchant, the neighbors are charming and the golf course and clubhouse keep calling. All joking aside, this is a place where AA personality slow down. Just breathing in the air after a late summer storm, watching a mama bear teach her baby to climb a tree, or watching the snow storm come acros ...

The study determined nutrient composition and organoleptic attributes of fresh and sundried carica papaya L pawpaw (Mbuer) and solanum macrocrpon egg (Mngishim) fruit soups consumed in Tiv communities of Benue State, Nigeria. Processing, preparation and utilization of fresh and sundried pawpaw and garden egg fruits for soup production information was obtained from focus group discussion (FGD).The recipes used for the work was based on t mean values after (FGD). The fruits were sundried for 72h, cooked with ground egusi, beniseed and groundnut seeds as thickeners. Proximate and micronutrient were determined using standard analytical procedures. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Duncan,s new multiple range test at 5% probability was used to separate and compare means and was accepted at (p≤0.05) for the organoleptic test. Proximate composition for fresh uncooked pawpaw fruits had higher moisture (72.57%), carbohydrate (20.55%), crude fibre (2.68%), protein (1.65%), ash (1.45%) and fat (1.10%) relative to those of garden egg fruits 90.54, 3.92, 2.55, 1.52, 1.36 and 0.11%, respectively. Dehydration increased nutrient values for garden egg fruits relative to pawpaw fruits. Sun drying increased iron (0.60mg), magnesium (63.23%), phosphorus (98.76mg) and sodium (26.58mg) values to pawpaw fruit. Iron (0.46mg), zinc (0.63mg), magnesium (53.25mg), phosphorus (103.29mg) and sodium (24.19mg) values increased in garden egg fruit. Vitamin profile for fresh and sun dried pawpaw and garden egg fruits had differences. Dehydration decreased β-carotene, thiamin and vitamin C values for pawpaw. It increased thiamin, riboflavin, niacin and pyridoxine values for garden egg fruits. Proximate composition for soups based for these fruits showed that fresh unripe pawpaw and beniseeds as thickener (FPB) had the highest fat (15.86%), carbohydrate (8.50%), protein (4.63%), crude fibre (4.44%), ash (1.79%) and moisture (63.28%). The soups based on fresh garden egg soups and cooked with egusi (FGE) as thickener had highest nutrient profile. The soup based on sundried garden egg soup had varied nutrients relative to other soups. Sun dried pawpaw fruit and beniseed soup (DPB) had highest protein (5.86%), fat (15.25%) and fibre (5.66%).Sundried garden egg fruits soup with egusi (DGE) had highest value for protein

(5.67%) and ash (4.76%),each. The soups based on fresh and dried pawpaw and garden egg soups contain energy that ranged from 173.81-197.55kcal. Among the three soup thickeners, egusi had much more increased in minerals relative to those soups based on beniseed and groundnut FP and FG fruits soups. Groundnut caused more increased in garden egg fruit soups. Beniseed soup had more vitamin relative to those soups based on egusi and groundnut.The vitamins for fresh pawpaw soup with egusi increased much more in garden egg fruits soups. Vitamin profile for dehydrated fruits soups caused significant differences for pawpaw and garden egg soups. Dehydrated pawpaw and egusi DPE soup supplied 2.56% of RDA of calcium daily. The FPB and the FGE produced 15.72%, and 546.67% RDA thiamin needed daily. Comparison of nutrient densities for energy with FAO/WHO/UNU values per 1000kcal. The fresh and dried pawpaw and garden egg soups met over 70% protein.FPE had 88.11%, DPE had 95.38% and the FGE had 73.60%. Most of the values for Vitamin C, calcium and sodium met their requirement values. Scores for all organoleptic attributes of the twelve (12) soups were more than half. The FP and the FG soups scores from (5.63 to 8.17).The DP and DG based soups were from (5.23 to 7.47) of the nine hedonic. The soups were generally acceptable. The FGE and the DGE soups were the most preferred by the panelist.

1.0                                                                          INTRODUCTION

1.1         Background to the study
Most Nigerian dishes consumed have local variations and include ingredients available in that locality, which may have different names according to the region. These variations may be a function of the socio-economic status of the cook or factors such as educational level, food taboos, cultural and religious practices, cost, season and nutrition knowledge (Bender and Bender, 1982). The amount of food one eats is just as important as the quality of the food, and to maintain the best nutrition status, an individual’s diet must be adequate both in quality and quantity. The community feeding pattern and nutritional status of individual depends to a large extent on the diet consumed and physical activity that are involved (Madukwe and Ene-Obong, 2002). The nutrition requirements of all the family members can be met by varying the quantity of food items and by proper combination of foods. Nutritionists and other health professionals are increasingly alarmed at the frequent and growing disparity between the amount of food people need to meet dietary and energy needs and the amount of food they actually consume (Nutrition Update, 2004).

A major contributor to our nation’s overall poor health status is insufficient intake of required food nutrients which are related to food insecurity, diseases; excessive and/or unbalanced food intake (Latham, 1997).

Most recipes are not established in Nigeria. Based on this, little research was conducted in this area including other developing countries. Researchers, who are willing to assess the nutrient intake of diverse food groups in Nigeria, have to rely mostly on the few food composition Tables available (Oguntona, Odunmbaku & Ottun, 1999).
Most of these Tables contain information on raw foods and very little on cooked foods which call for need to fill the existing gap on Nigerian local foods (Onabanjo & Oguntona, 2003). Fruits and vegetables remain an important source of nutrients in many parts of the world. They offer advantages over dietary supplements because of low cost and wide availability. They also contribute significantly to food security (Kenny, 2002). The accurate measurement of fruits and vegetable intake is essential to provide valid messages about fruit and vegetables and health. (FAO\WHO, 2004).

Pawpaw (Carica papaya L.) is commonly known as mbuer in Tiv, okwuru ezi in lgbo, ibepe in Yoruba and gwanda in Hausa. Garden egg (Solanum macrocarpon L) is known as mngishim in Tiv, anara in lgbo, yalo in Hausa and igba in Yoruba. The fruits had numerous nutritional and

health benefits. Its consumption aids digestion of other foods rich in vitamins A, B and C. It is one of the cheapest economically important fruits that is grown and consumed for its nutritional content and characteristics in the country (Baiyewu & Amusa, 2005).

The ripe Carica papaya L fruit is consumed fresh as a breakfast or dessert fruit. Green or unripe fruits are used as ingredients in salads and cooked dishes (De La Cruz, Gutierrez & Garcia, 2002). Its fruits consist mostly of water, carbohydrate, low calories and rich in natural vitamins A and C and minerals (Oloyede, 2005).

Garden egg (Solanum Macrocarpon L) is a highly valued delicacy and constituent of the African food. The benefits of eating (Solanum Macrocarpon L) extend far beyond ensuring that one’s desire for a good meal is satisfied. It can be eaten raw or cooked and commonly consumed during wedding ceremony because it symbolizes fertility and blessing. It is used in soups and stews in their fresh forms (Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Fisheries (MAFF), 1997). The unripe Carica Papaya L fruit has a high latex content that may make it unsuitable for raw consumption. Unripe green Carica Papaya L is used as vegetable. It does not contain carotene but contains all other nutrients. However, raw shredded green pawpaw is often used in Asian salads, or cut into pieces and eaten with vegetables (Okeke, Ene-Obong, Uzuegbunam, Ozioko and Kuhnlein, 2008).

The majority of the populace has known these fruits to be eaten in their fresh forms. However, in Tiv communities the unripe/green Carica Papaya L fruits are peeled, sliced and cook fresh or dried in the sun and used as a vegetable just like pumpkin leaves with groundnut, and or melon seeds (egusi) in soup form. The dried Carica Papaya L soup is prepared with either groundnut paste or benniseed (sesame seed) as thickeners just like egusi. This soup is known and referred to as “Igyande mbuer” in Tiv. The Solanum macrocarpon L fruit is also sliced and eaten fresh or dried and used as a vegetable in melon, sesame or groundnut soups called “Igyande mngishi in Tiv language. These methods of processing reduce the issue of food insecurity and make the fruits available all year round and diversify their food use. In Nigeria, soups form major part of our meal, there is no part of the country that doesn’t have particular soups that is peculiar to that area and most of these soups may have some promising potentials which may be beneficial to the entire country. Researching about some Nigerian soups will not only diversify the food use of these soups but it will also reduce the issue of food insecurity in the country......
