What Can I Do About Nutritional Anemia?
Nutritional anemia is most commonly caused by iron deficiency, but it may also be caused by deficiencies in other nutrients such as riboflavin, vitamin B12, and zinc. Food fortification is listed as a "relevant intervention" in this list of six key actions to prevent anemia.
For ideas about what you can do to prevent nutritional anemia, click on the questions below.
For examples of what it is like to have nutritional anemia, see these stories.
For more information, see Nutritional Anemia published by Sight and Life Press, 2007.
If your country has a flour fortification program, compare the nutrient standards to the World Health Organization recommendations for wheat and maize flour fortification. In particular, look at the type of iron and amount of iron used. If your country has a rice fortification program, compare the standards to the recommendations in Table 3 of this article in the Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences. If your fortification standard is not consistent with those recommendations, and no other foods are effectively fortified with those nutrients, the fortification program may not be achieving the desired health impact. Begin the legal process to update the fortification standard.
Review your fortification legislation to see if imported premix (the powdery blend of vitamins and minerals added to flour) and fortified rice kernels are exempt from value added tax, tariffs, and duties. If not, seek to allow this exemption as a relief to industry partners who pay the recurring cost of buying these items.
If your country does not have a fortification program, consider forming a National Fortification Alliance to work toward preventing nutritional anemia by fortifying staple foods with multiple nutrients. See other topics to consider when planning a fortification program.
If you currently fortify wheat flour and maize flour, review and practice the elements of internal monitoring, good manufacturing practice (GMP), and hazard analysis and critical control points (HACCP) listed here.
If you do not currently fortify wheat flour and maize flour, review the technical topics for effectively implementing a flour fortification program. Determine what you would need to begin fortification.
If you are a member of a flour milling association, put fortification on the agenda of your next association meeting. Discuss how the association members can work together to help improve or begin your country's fortification program.
See a strategic paper prepared for the World Health Organization's Western Pacific Regional Office for factors determining the feasibility of fortifying rice. Identify places in your rice distribution channels where fortification would be feasible.
When considering a source for fortified rice kernels, review the suggestions in this article in Global Milling Advances.
Identify the best source of anemia data and determine the primary causes of anemia in your country. Seek to share this data with your country's National Fortification Alliance to inform fortification standards.
Remember that fortification is a preventive measure; it does not take the place of providing clinical treatment to people with nutritional anemia.
Research evidence of other health issues caused by nutrient deficiencies, such as neural tube birth defects due to insufficient folic acid. Recommend other nutrients to be included in the fortification standard based on this evidence.
When you eat iron-rich foods such as red meat, include foods that are high in vitamin C as this helps you absorb iron.
If you have a choice between fortified and unfortified rice and foods made with fortified or unfortified flour, choose the fortified products to increase your nutritional intake.
Voice your support for fortification to members of the National Fortification Alliance if your country has such a committee.

Curtis Bernhardt (15 April 1899 – 22 February 1981) was a German film director born in Worms, Germany, under the name Kurt Bernhardt.

He trained as an actor in Germany, and performed on the stage, before starting as a film director in 1924, with Nameless Heroes. Other films include A Stolen Life (1946) and Sirocco (1951).

Bernhardt made films in Germany from 1925 until 1933, when he was forced to flee the Third Reich — who briefly had him arrested — because he was Jewish. Bernhardt directed films in France and England before moving on to Hollywood to work for Warner Brothers in 1940. He produced and directed his last Hollywood picture, Kisses for My President (1964), about the nation's first female Chief Executive starring Polly Bergen and Fred MacMurray.

He is interred at Glendale's Forest Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery, near his wife, Pearl Argyle Wellman Bernhardt.

Bennett Day School's Hands-On Approach to Learning
by Stacey Winconek
Cameron Smith wanted to send his two sons to a school where they could learn by doing — a place that didn't limit students to sitting at their desks listening to a teacher lecture throughout the day. So, he founded Bennett Day School, a Chicago-based private, progressive school for children in preschool through 12th grade.
"Bennett is the kind of school I at first dreamed of for my children, but it didn't exist," Smith says. "It's a school that's dedicated to creativity and innovation, and really kids learning by doing, so the students and the teachers construct learning together. They build and experience learning together."
From writing lines of script for the Osmo Kaleidoscope app to building bike rack prototypes to designing an effective water filtering system, students are given ample opportunity to develop skills, problem solve and work together. This approach to learning is known as project-based learning, and it boasts big benefits to a child's development and preparation for the future.
"Numerous studies and research will show us time and again that purely memorizing something and having to repeat it back without context or applying it, you will retain less than 20% of it," Smith says. "But if you experience learning and apply your learning, you can retain and apply upwards of three-quarters of it."
By applying the Reggio Emilia approach to learning, which is a student-centered approach that allows children to explore in an environment that fosters collaboration and communication, the school offers its students a unique opportunity to learn more about the world around them.
But that's not the only unique thing about this Chicago school. Read on for more about Bennett Day School's approach to learning.
Assessing progress
If you ask Smith, the current grading system that most K-12 schools use is outdated.
"The system we have now is born out of over 150 years of, 'you sit and listen, I'm the expert. I teach, you listen. Repeat back to me and forget in five days and move on to something else,'" he says.
Times have changed, though, and Smith says the grading system should evolve with it. There are two other grading systems to consider: standards-based, which tells you if you're reaching or have gone beyond proficiency in a given area based upon a set of grade-level expectations, and competency-based grading, which involves detailed responses to work and a feedback loop. Bennett Day School harnesses this approach with competency-based assessments. Competency-based assessments identify specific skills that are most meaningful to the world and asks students to demonstrate those skills, compiling and cross-referencing them across disciplines, so that a student leaves high school having been certified to possess relevant, important skills necessary for the world beyond.
"It's much more relevant to the learning experience to start from competencies and then say whether you've mastered a particular area or not and that can equate to a grade," he says.
This sort of assessment is ideal for students to understand and apply concepts through real-life experiences. In general, Bennett Day School believes that test scores are an inadequate means of understanding a student's value or capability. And while standardized test scores tend to impact a student's entry into their college of choice, students now have the option to submit transcripts that forgo letter grades. These non-traditional transcripts can be accepted at colleges and universities across the country, including Harvard University, Stanford University, The University of Pennsylvania, and Northwestern University, Smith notes.
As early as PreK, Bennett Day starts a Digital Portfolio for students that features examples of their work. These works — which can include videos, pictures and artifacts — support students' assessments in linguistic, cognitive, social-emotional and physical development areas.
The goal? To allow students to grow all while reflecting upon their love of learning.

Current handbaggage restrictions on flights in the EU, UK, US, and more...
Airport security procedures are continually enhanced and altered in countries and airports worldwide. These most impact passengers with regard security check in procedures and carry-on luggage: how many bags per person and restrictions on items that may be taken on board. Travellers are recommended to check with their airline for advice on security requirements (most airline websites have clear luggage guidelines) and look out for all notices at airports.
Many airports worldwide are already using or are planning for the introduction of full body scanners to detect items hidden in the body and clothes.
Note: As of 15 June 2015 e-cigarettes and other battery-powered portable electronic smoking devices can no longer be checked in as hold luggage but can be carried as hand baggage. Recharging the devices in aircraft cabins is forbidden, and most airlines don't allow smoking them on board.
Here is information and links on hand baggage and liquid restrictions relevant to flights from and in the:
European Union (EU) Hand Luggage Rules and Restrictions
To protect passengers against the threat of liquid explosives, the European Union (EU) security rules restrict the amount of liquids that can be taken through security checkpoints.
This applies to all passengers departing from airports in the EU regardless of the destination. This means that, at security checkpoints, both passengers and hand luggage must be checked for liquids in addition to other prohibited articles.
Liquids may be carried in luggage that is checked in to the hold
Medicines and dietary requirements, including baby foods, for use during the trip may be carried in hand luggage. Proof may be requested
Liquids such as drinks and perfumes may be bought either in an EU airport shop when located beyond the security check or on board an aircraft operated by an EU airline
Note: If liquids are sold in a special sealed bag, do not open it before being screened, otherwise the contents may be confiscated at the checkpoint. (If transferring at an EU airport, do not open the bag before screening at the airport of transfer, or at the last one if there is to be more than one transfer).
The rules apply at all airports in the EU and in Albania, Croatia, Iceland, Kosovo, Norway and Switzerland until further notice.
While packing
Only small quantities of liquids may be taken in hand luggage. These liquids must be in individual containers with a maximum capacity of 100 millilitres each. These containers must be packed in one transparent, re-sealable plastic bag of not more than one litre capacity per passenger.
To help security screeners detect liquids, passengers must:
Present all liquids carried to the staff at security checkpoints for examination
Take off jacket and/or coat which is screened separately
Remove laptop computers and other large electrical devices from hand luggage for separate screening
Up-to-date information on security procedures and details on restrictions on hand luggage, is available from the European Commission Transport division.
Security procedures in the UK vary between airports, some allowing passengers to carry two items of hand luggage and others allowing only one. In addition, certain airlines only permit a passenger to have one item of hand luggage, regardless of the airport's ruling.
No liquids may be taken on board unless they adhere to the EU rulings: liquids must be in individual containers with a maximum capacity of 100 millilitres each. These containers must be packed in one transparent, re-sealable plastic bag of not more than one litre capacity per passenger.
Up-to-date information on security procedures and details on restrictions on hand luggage, is available from the UK government website
The US Transportation Security Administration (TSA) regularly updates and publishes guidelines on security requirements for international US flights. There are prohibitions on bringing in certain items, and restrictions on the liquids that may be carried on board.
Guidelines on liquids are expressed in the 3-1-1 rule for carry-ons: each passenger may only carry on liquids in maximum bottle sizes of 3.4 ounce (100ml) all contained in one single clear, plastic, zip-top bag of one-quart (about 1 litre) capacity. Larger quantities of liquids must be declared. Medications, baby formula and food, and breast milk may be carried on board in larger quantities but must be declared and examined.
No major changes to standard procedure were introduced following the attempted terror attack of 25 December 2009, however passengers flying to or in the US could expect the following additional security measures:
Body pat-down security checks
Limit to one piece of carry on hand luggage with limit to liquids that can be carried on board
Restrictions on leaving the seat in the final hour of the flight (unless accompanied by airplane staff)
Always check security guidelines with the airline before flying (information is usually available on an airline's website).
The Canadian Transport Department website has much information on the security measures and hand baggage rulings for passengers.
Australia has limits on the amount of liquid (including gel and aerosol) that may be carried by passengers on international flights either leaving or entering the country.

The Department of Architecture has hired Aleksandr Mergold (B.Arch. '00) as an assistant professor on a tenure track. Mergold, who was a visiting assistant professor of architecture at AAP (2008–12) and a lecturer on design and environmental analysis in Cornell's College of Human Ecology (2012–13), is a partner at Austin+Mergold LLC, an architecture, landscape, and design practice in Philadelphia.
His research is focused on a "design-and-adapt" approach that aims to repurpose the cheap, disposable elements in today's construction, including infrastructure, images, technology, and resources.
Mergold has contributed to the Cornell Journal of Architecture, and was a design director of the Unpacking the Nano exhibition at the Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art (winter 2011). He holds a master of architecture degree from Princeton University.


The winter post-season saw the boys and girls basketball teams from Eagle Rock High competing in playoffs at the City and State levels.

The Eagles' Mitchell Gravino, a senior, had 16 points and 8 rebounds, while his teammate Jordon Purvis, a junior, had 13 points and 21 rebounds.
Christian Dunbar, the Eagles coach, told NELA Sports One: "We've been playing close games all year. This year we had the team to do that and they had to persevere to get through the season." Star players Gravino and Purvis credit the coaching staff for encouraging the hard work and team work needed to win the League and City championships.
Riding high on its City Championship, Eagle Rock won its first game in the Division IV state playoffs, defeating the Crean Lutheran Saints from Irvine, 57-56, in a final-seconds, come-from-behind victory.

The accounting firm of Price Waterhouse was hired to count the ballots, after the fiasco of prematurely-leaked voting results in 1939 by the Los Angeles Times. Therefore, the year 1940 was the first year that sealed envelopes were used to keep secret the names of the winners. In fact, this was the first year in which the winners remained secret until the moment they won their awards. It brought about the famous phrase: "May I have the Envelope, please." A new category was added: Writing: Original Screenplay.
Independent producer David O. Selznick, who had produced the previous year's big winner Gone With The Wind (1939), also produced the Best Picture winner in 1940 - and campaigned heavily for its win. Selznick was the first to produce two consecutive winners of the Best Picture Oscar. Rebecca was based on Daphne du Maurier's popular novel about a shrinking, child-like bride (Fontaine) who lives in the shadow of her enigmatic widower husband's (Olivier) first wife at a somber estate named Manderley (run by a mad, steely-eyed and devoted housekeeper (Anderson)). Although Rebecca had eleven nominations, it only won for Best Picture.
The film's studio - United Artists - was the last of the original film studios (the others were MGM, Columbia, 20th Century Fox, Warner Bros., Universal, and Paramount) to win the Best Picture Oscar. Rebecca was the first American-made film directed by British suspense master Alfred Hitchcock.
James Stewart, after making 24 films over a five year period in Hollywood, won the Best Actor award (with his second nomination - it was his sole Oscar win in his entire career) for his performance as Mike Connor - a young Spy Magazine reporter sent to cover the marriage of a socialite (Katharine Hepburn) in The Philadelphia Story. His award was seen as compensation for his loss the previous year for his performance as Jefferson Smith in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939).
Ginger Rogers never won an award for her best-remembered dancing partnership (she had performed in nine musicals with Fred Astaire by 1939), but the dark horse did win (with her sole career nomination and Oscar win) the Best Actress award for her dramatic role in the classic 'woman's picture' Kitty Foyle as the title character/heroine. In an adaptation of Christopher Morley's novel, she starts out as a white-collar working girl who becomes a businesswoman and is forced to make a romantic choice between a rich, married Philadelphia socialite and a lower-class young doctor. After she loses a baby son, she decides to strike out alone.
Walter Brennan won a Best Supporting Actor award (it was his third nomination and his third award in five years) for his performance as the notorious Judge Roy Bean in love with Lily Langtry (Lilian Bond) in director William Wyler's The Westerner (with three nominations and one win). Brennan was the first performer to win three Academy Awards - an unprecedented record he held for twenty-eight years until Katharine Hepburn won her third Oscar in 1968 for The Lion in Winter (1968). The Best Supporting Actor winner was nominated only once more in the next year - for Sergeant York (1941) - but he lost the award to Donald Crisp.
Though the Best Supporting Actress award could have gone to Australian-born actress Dame Judith Anderson (with her sole career nomination) as the sinister, malevolent housekeeper Mrs. Danvers ("Danny") who dies within the flames of Manderley mansion in Rebecca, it was awarded to Jane Darwell (with her sole career nomination) for her outstanding, memorable portrayal of strong and understanding earth-mother and migrant farm worker Ma Joad in an adaptation of John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath.
Preston Sturges won the first Original Screenplay Award for the political screwball comedy spoof The Great McGinty (the film's sole nomination and award) about city hall graft, Sturges' directorial debut film. Walt Disney's animated Pinocchio won the Best Original Score and Best Song Awards (for "When You Wish Upon a Star").
Unbelievably, Cary Grant was also snubbed and not even nominated for his role as divorced, but dashing, colorful, pompous, playboyish husband C. K. Dexter Haven in the screwball comedy The Philadelphia Story.
Although The Great Dictator, Chaplin's first all-talking, all-sound film received five nominations: Outstanding Production/Picture, Best Actor (Chaplin), Best Writing (Original Screenplay) (Chaplin), Best Supporting Actor (Jack Oakie) and Best Music (Original Score) (Meredith Willson), it went away empty-handed.
Although James Stewart was successful in the Best Actor category this year, he was not nominated for another great role in The Shop Around the Corner - co-stars Margaret Sullavan and Frank Morgan (as the tormented store owner) were also overlooked.

Spanish police arrest 3, seize cocaine hidden inside carefully hollowed-out pineapples
MADRID – Spanish police say they have arrested three suspects and seized 200 kilograms (441 pounds) of cocaine that had been concealed within a shipment of pineapples that arrived at the southwestern port of Algeciras in containers sent from Central America.
The drug was hidden inside carefully hollowed-out pineapples that had been placed within 11 containers, a statement says. The cocaine had been covered in a protective coating of yellow wax that helped disguise it, the statement says.
Two of the suspects are Spaniards of Colombian descent who own fruit-importing companies in Madrid and Barcelona, although investigations are still ongoing.
Another container with drugs was stopped at the Belgian port of Antwerp, although its final destination was listed as the Netherlands.
Sunday's statement didn't specify when exactly the arrests were made.

History Of Nigerian Naira, The '₦' Sign, Old Exchange Rates And Everything You Need To Know
Many Nigerians make use of the Naira but don't know its history as well as the various signs, symbols and it worth. The official currency, currently used in Nigeria is called the Nigerian naira, which was subdivided into 100 kobo.
In this article we will discuss with you about the history, symbol, sign and worth of the Nigerian currency – the naira and kobo.
Nigeria as a country which you already know is a middle income, mixed economy and emerging market. It is considered as one of the largest economies in Africa today and the largest in West Africa, blessed with many useful natural resources and has been exporting to several countries around the world.
Before the introduction of the Nigerian Naira and Kobo, which was in the year 1973, the Pound was the currency of Nigeria and was used between 1907 and 1973. However, prior to this time, the country had used various forms of money including Cowries and Manilas.
It was not until the year 1958 that Nigeria used the British West African pounds that it issued its own currency. The pounds were subdivided into 20 shillings, each of which was 12 pences. Back then, the Nigerian pounds was at parity with British pounds with easy convertibility. It was replaced with the introduction in 1973 of the Decimal Naira at a rate of 1 pound = 2 Naira. This new change made Nigeria the last country to abandon the British West Africa pound currency system.
In 1959, coins were issued in denominations of ½, 1, 3 and 6 pence respectively and in 1 and 2 shillings. The ½ and 1 penny coins were bronze and holed. The 3 pence coin which was minted in nickel-brass was a smaller version of the distinctive twelve sided three penny bits that was used in the UK, Jersey and Fiji.

The issue of bank notes in Nigeria has a long history. There was an emergency issue made by the government in the year 1918 presenting denominations of 1, 10 and 20 shillings. By 1959, the Central Bank of Nigeria introduced notes in denominations of 5 and 10 shillings, including 1 and 5 pounds. Three series of notes were issued, in 1958, 1967 and 1968 respectively.
Following the introduction of new currency – the Naira and Kobo as the legal tender in 1973, the Kobo was the first to be widely used in the country. There were certain unique symbols and signs that distinguished the currency.
• The Naira has the sign '₦'
• The Kobo was signed "K'
There was five denominations of the Kobo which were 1/2k, 1k, 5k, 10k and 25k in 1973 and by the year 1989, the 50k and N1 notes were changed to coins Today in the country, the Kobo coins have been phased out because its value can no longer purchase items in the country's marketplace.
The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) is the only financial institution authorized to be the issuer of the Naira bank notes in the country, while the printer remains the Nigerian security printing and Minting Company.
The Nigerian Naira, code "NGN" and signed with the symbol "₦" was released in notes in the year 1973 which include the four different denominations: ₦1, ₦5, ₦10 and ₦20.

Introduction of Major Naira Notes:
• In the year 1991, the ₦50 naira note was introduced in the country
• After this was followed by the introduction of the ₦100 naira in 1999.
• The ₦200 naira note was introduced in the year 2000
• By 2001, the ₦500 notes were introduced.
• And finally, the ₦1000 note was released on October 12, 2005.
Along the line, some notes were phased out, while others were redesigned.
The worth of the Nigerian naira has long depreciated in both the local and international market which had made it lack it purchasing power.

Composition analysis of two batches of polysorbate 60 using MS and NMR techniques
Vu Dang, Hoang and Gray, Alexander I. and Watson, David and Bates, Catharine D. and Scholes, Peter and Eccleston, Gillain M. (2006) Composition analysis of two batches of polysorbate 60 using MS and NMR techniques. Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis, 40 (5). pp. 1155-1165. ISSN 0731-7085
Official URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jpba.2005.10.007
Batch variation in Tween 60 has shown to influence the rheological properties of semisolid emulsions. MS (LC-MS, GC-MS, MSn) and NMR (13C, 1H, 1H COSY and HMBC) techniques were used to analyze and compare the composition of two batches of Tween 60 with particular emphasis on the number of POE groups and their distribution within the molecule. Acid and saponification values were also determined. The batches contained different proportions of components (sorbitan polyethoxylates, sorbitan monoester-diester-polyethoxylates and isosorbide monoester-diester-polyethoxylates). The number of POE groups were averaged over the four sites in sorbitan and the two sites in isosorbide molecules. The batches differed from each other in terms of (i) the POE sorbitan stearate/POE sorbitan palmitate ratios (batch 1, 3:2 and batch 2, 4:5), (ii) the ratio of sorbitans to isosorbides (batch 1, 2:3; batch 2, 7:13); and (iii) the acid values (batch 1, 3.1; batch 2, 0). It is concluded that liquid chromatography combined with electrospray mass spectrometry and ion trap separation is a useful tool for establishing the compositional profile of different batches of Tweens. 1H NMR could provide a simple and rapid pharmacopoeial test for the ratio of sorbitan to isosorbide in Tweens.

Fearing Cuts to Bread Subsidy, Egyptians Protest
Hundreds of Egyptians protested around the country on Tuesday, blocking roads and surrounding government offices, after a change to the way bread rations are managed raised fears that the government was cutting food subsidies by the back door.
Bread subsidies are an explosive issue in Egypt, where over 70 million receive state rations. Core inflation in the country has soared above 30 percent since Egypt floated its currency in November, securing a $12 billion loan package from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to support a government austerity program.
Protests began on Monday after changes to a bread subsidy scheme left some people without their ration.
Unrest grew on Tuesday, with angry crowds gathering in the port city of Alexandria, in at least one poor Cairo neighborhood, and several other cities across Egypt.
Supply—Uprising became the top trending Twitter hashtag for Egypt as Egyptians posted pictures of confused people outside bakeries and in the street.
"We were surprised when the bakers refused to give us bread with the excuse that the Supply Ministry reduced their rations," said Ahmed Faraj, an Alexandria resident.
Most protests drew small crowds and dissipated quickly, but offered the first major evidence of public anger over rising living costs.
"We are suffering from high prices. We have nothing left to live on but bread and now the government wants to deprive us of it," said Samia Darwish, a 50-year-old homemaker in Alexandria.
Sale of bread subsidized
Egypt operates a system in which each family receives a plastic card to buy five subsidized loaves per person per day.
The government then pays bakeries a subsidy per loaf.
Bakers also receive "gold cards" to sell bread to individuals without a smartcard — generally those waiting for cards.
The Supply Ministry issued a statement on Monday denying it planned to cut bread subsidies after local media reported that rations would go from five to three loaves a day.
However, last week it did reduce the amount bakers can sell via the "gold card" scheme, according to a document seen by Reuters. The move is likely aimed at reducing misuse of those cards, which costs the government hundreds of millions of pounds a year.
Bread sales lead to black market
A Reuters report last year revealed flaws in the system allow bakers to overstate sales to profit from the black market, where they sell subsidized flour to private bakeries at a profit, costing the government billions of pounds.
The dangers are not lost on President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi, in a country where economic discontent has helped unseat two presidents in five years. He has promised prosperity and stability in the aftermath of the 2011 Arab Spring uprising, and has committed to protecting the poorest from the pain of austerity.
"We want the president to know that the poor are dying of the high prices," said Gamal Ahmed, from Alexandria.
Abdel Aal Darwish, the head of the bakeries division at the Alexandria Chambers of Commerce, called on the government to reverse the move and issue all Egyptians with cards.

Industry Week recently ran an article that asked the question How does your supply chain stack up? Written by the Director of Corporate Partnerships from the University of Tennessee, the article summarized the main lesson learned by the Department of Marketing and Logistics since they started offering supply chain assessments in 2006.
To date, the department has performed eight supply chain audits for companies across a diverse range of industries that ranged from 100M in annual sales to 30B. Although the firms were very diverse, they found that, to their surprise (but not mine), that all of the firms faced exactly the same supply chain problems.
Too many models and lack of a good process to eliminate underperforming products.
Sales doesn't want to reduce price because they're measured on margin – but products lose value over time while incurring inventory holding costs.
Design teams rarely consider inventory, transportation, or warehousing issues – just to name a few.
Many supply chain organizations are so consumed with the daily battles of cost control, inventory management, and customer service that they don't plan for the future – sometimes with disastrous results.
In most companies, sales is driven by revenue generation while operations strives to cut costs.
Many organizations do not have an optimal network design. Warehouses need to be appropriately placed and transportation optimized.
Outsourcing decisions are made everyday, but few firms consider the total cost of an outsourcing decision.
Addressing just one of these problems can lead to millions in savings. For example, a hard goods manufacturer achieved 600M in cash-flow improvements through inventory and asset optimization and another manufacturer found 5M to 10M in savings simply by restructuring its distribution network.
Look to today's modern auto-companies. Instead of giving you 30 different options, and letting you choose from 2^30 or 1B different configurations, some only sell three or four standard configurations of a car: the base model, the value model, the extended model, or the luxury model. Assembly is efficient and product complexity is minimized.
Model the inventory holding cost up-front, analyze historical price trends, and pre-determine dates where remaining inventory will be reduced, marked down, and cleared. If the product happens to be composed largely of raw materials that are increasing in price (i.e. steel) and has a scrap value that increases over time, you can take this into account as well and determine a formula that is to be run on predefined dates to determine the appropriate price decreases. This is very important if you are in electronics, where you can predict that in 6 months the product will have lost 20% of its value – that tells you that a 10% reduction in 3 months might be better than having to fire-sale the product in 7 months.
When different options have dramatically different material, inventory, warehousing, or transportation costs – supply chain can point this out.
Every time the business plan is updated, update the supply chain plan as well to meet the goals of the business plan. Don't have a supply chain plan? Get one!
Make sure forecasting is done by an integrated Sales & Operations Planning team that includes the head of sales, the head of marketing, and the head of supply chain – and that every department works off of the same forecast.
Model your current network, and re-run the network flow model at least once, if not twice, a year to optimize flow – and do a complete network re-design exercise every three years to determine the optimal network design and if any changes need to be made.
Don't outsource anything you haven't optimized internally first – displacing a problem doesn't solve it, it just makes it worse. If you need help getting your house in order, bring in an expert to help you.

About this production
Who has Gilda on his conscience? The Duke of Mantua, who can't keep his hands off any skirt? His courtiers, who use game playing to chase boredom? Or is it the cynical court jester Rigoletto, who will not let go of his daughter Gilda or give her the freedom she would need to realize for herself "what" love is, and "who" really loves? This is as certain as Monterone's curse: one of the best-known operatic hits will be told in a totally new way by motion picture director Doris Dörrie!
Act One
At a dissipated court festivity the Duke tells his courtiers about an unknown, beautiful young girl whom he has been meeting clandestinely for the past three months and whom he now plans to conquer. For the time being, however, it is the Countess Ceprano to whom he is attracted. Her husband, the Count, is forced to look on helplessly while the Duke pays court to his wife, heedless of comment and regardless of her husband's feelings. The Duke's favourite, his jester Rigoletto, takes a great deal of pleasure in heaping caustic scorn on the betrayed husband. To the general delight of anyone who will listen, Marullo reveals that he has discovered that Rigoletto, the outsider, has a young innamorata. When Rigoletto cynically advises the Duke to have Count Ceprano thrown into prison or even executed so that he can have his way with the Countess, Ceprano's friends decide to teach the jester a lesson for his outrageous behaviour. Count Monterone bursts in and denounces the Duke as the seducer of his daughter. He, too, is not safe from Rigoletto's sport. Beside himself with anger, the Count calls down a curse on the Duke and his favourite, Rigoletto.
Rigoletto meets the professional assasin, Sparafucile, who hints that he, Rigoletto, will soon be requiring his services. Rigoletto is haunted by the thought of Monterone's curse. He is worried about his daughter, Gilda, whom he keeps concealed from the world under the care of Giovanna. Gilda tells Giovanna about the attentions of a young man who has been following her for some time and with whom she has fallen in love. Suddenly this young man appears at her side. He tells her he is a poor student and quite overwhelms her with his passionate declaration of love. Their tryst is disturbed abruptly. The Duke disappears and Gilda follows him in her thoughts.
The Duke's courtiers plan to abduct Gilda. When Rigoletto suddenly returns unexpectedly, they assure him that it is Countess Ceprano they are intent on capturing. In this way they persuade Rigoletto to help them abduct his own daughter. Too late, Rigoletto realizes that he has been duped.
The Duke is disconsolate when he learns that Gilda has been abducted. When his courtiers proudly present their catch, he takes Gilda into his care.
Rigoletto is looking for his daughter and it gradually becomes clear to him that she is with the Duke.
Distraught and full of shame, Gilda faces her father. He is the only one to whom she is willing to admit what has happened. Rigoletto decides to seek revenge.
Act Three
Rigoletto goes to visit Sparafucile, taking Gilda with him; he has not been able to get Gilda to forswear her love for the Duke. With the help of Maddalena, Sparafucile's beautiful sister, who acts as a decoy, the Duke is lured on to the scene. Gilda now has to watch the man she loves making advances to another woman. Rigoletto sends Gilda away so that he can review his bargain with Sparafucile.
Gilda returns secretly. She overhears a conversation between Maddalena and Sparafucile and learns about their plan to murder the Duke. Maddalena wants to spare the Duke, but Sparafucile, who has given Rigoletto his word, decides to stick to the original plan to kill the Duke unless some stranger arrives in the course of the night, whom he might then kill instead. Gilda is willing to sacrifice herself for the Duke.
At midnight Sparafucile hands Rigoletto a sack containing a corpse. Rigoletto is triumphant. Only when he hears the Duke's voice does he realize that it is the body of his murdered daughter which he is holding. Monterone's curse has finally caught up with him.

From Film to Opera. How Doris Dörrie Conquers New Territory.
Rigoletto is your third production for the operatic stage, which you, as you say yourself, still regard as new territory. What do you believe is the major difference between work on a motion picture and work on an opera?
It is clearly the music that determines the rhythm of the production. This is totally unfamiliar and beautiful for me. In my film work I invent all the rhythm of a story myself, because I also write the screenplay. That's the hardest part of making a movie, finding an interior and exterior rhythm, a rhythm of the plot, the action, and the interior rhythm of the characters. It's the greatest source of errors: you think once the exterior rhythm makes sense, then you automatically have the rhythm for the characters. But that is often not the case. That's what I find the special, fascinating quality of opera. The musical rhythm of the work takes hold of me, carries me along, I can move within it, breathe with it, and this is way I tell the story.
In opera you have a prescribed story you cannot invent yourself as a screenplay. Do you feel restricted by this?
No, but I am highly dependent on a good story. In my previous opera jobs I had and have three good stories and fantastic music to go with them: Mozart's Così fan tutte, Puccini's Turandot and now Verdi's Rigoletto.
When you began working on Rigoletto, was there something like a priming spark that brought you closer to the piece?
As a film maker, I'm used to first looking at a story from the inside even though you have to tell it from the outside. With Rigoletto it was spontaneously the relationship between father and daughter that ignited the strongest feeling in me. If there is an emotional moment like this, one that scores a direct hit on me, then I can build the play concentrically around it. In this case it was, as I said, Gilda and her father.
A father-daughter relationship with lethal ending. Can this be generalized?
The tragedy of the relationship between parents and children that is so exemplarily revealed and elevated to extremes here can be found in the mixed messages, as psychology calls them, with which people can murder children. In the opera the music tells us so fantastically that the tenderness, the protector instinct of the parents is the one side, but that Rigoletto in his loneliness and deformity - which I see more on the inside than the outside - expects his daughter to assume responsibility for his happiness, and that is probably the worst thing you can inflict on your children. From the moment when Gilda starts seeking her own happiness, Rigoletto sees his own existence, his happiness imperiled. From that moment on he becomes a cruel father, who severely punishes his daughter, who refuses to forgive her, who will not allow her to disengage herself from him - ultimately this is what kills her. Anyone who is a father or mother has to fight against the fact that the time will come when you have to let go of your children. This experience is painful for everyone. And the opera brings this out so clearly. After all, in normal life we don't sing when we have problems. Here, however, the singing starts at the point where words fail. And I can relate very strongly to that. Singing is the desperate expression that remains when every attempt to behave in a civilized manner, to treat things rationally, to talk and discuss, collapses in failure.
Rigoletto thus behaves egotistically toward his daughter. This reflects a very powerfully patriarchal way of thinking. How much sympathy do you feel for this character?
As a writer and author and, of course, also as a director, it is always important to feel something for every character. I'd like to be able to sympathize with murderers, with villains and with patriarchal fathers. This is very easy here, because I can understand Rigoletto very well, as well as I understand Gilda or the Duca. The fact that their relationship winds up so catastrophically and costs a human life, that is the tragedy of this story.
Rigoletto is an opera with pronounced theatrical archetypes: the womanizer, the hunchback, the corpse in the sack. Are these obstacles for an interpretation?
No, I see them more as sources of enthusiasm. When you write a screenplay the first rule is to be very clear. These trappings that you mentioned allow me to take a direct approach to the characters, to look at them more precisely. In this sense, I am more convinced that the Duca is not just a womanizer but also has a tender side. I simply believe the music. I believe him when he sings in the first act duet with Gilda that he really loves this girl, that he is enchanted by her and through her has discovered something in himself that he never knew before. In that moment, it is true.
Gilda, whom the duke also sings of as a "donna celeste" appears very idealized in keeping with the idealized image Rigoletto has of his daughter or the duke has of his beloved. What do you see in this character?
I have no difficulty seeing her as a human being, a child of her father. The devastatingly moving quality children have is the way they want to protect their parents, regardless of how their parents treat them. Even a child who is subjected to physical or psychological violence will, up to a certain age, always defend its father when he is attacked. This enormous protective reflex children have and their readiness to protect parents, I find that very stirring. Everyone knows how bad it is for a child to experience weakness in a parent, when it sees its father cry. It's downright murderous for a child. This is why I keenly understand why Gilda is so torn, when Rigoletto forces her to comfort him, to protect him, to give him all her warmth. Demanding that sort of thing from children is something like a taboo injury, but I can also see why someone seeks this kind of unconditional tie with children, especially when that person is himself sad or embroiled in a crisis. The pedagogically "correct" way of going about things would be for Rigoletto to say: I am the father, you are the child. I nurture you, but you are free to find your own way. He can't bring himself to do that because he is so horribly lonely.
And that's why he reacts so extremely, confining her as he does?
But to a certain degree we all do that with our children: naturally we'd all rather lock up our children. We don't want them going out into a dangerous world, having our daughters in some disco surrounded by wild young men finding their great love, who then takes them away from up. The opera very clearly reveals that to us.
You very distinctly pinpoint where the danger is, namely in the cynical, cruel society to which Gilda and Rigoletto are subjected?
I spent a long time reflecting on how we might display a society like that today. Unfortunately the only equivalents we could find for that - whether our party society or the widespread TV decadence you'll find in a show like "I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here!" - would not be recognizable as a completely vulgar, cynical, brutal, decadent society, just because it's the world we live in. That means you can't put this story in that normal environment, but you have to go to some extremes to display that dehumanization.
The famous movie classic The Planet of the Apes was obviously an inspiration here?
Yes, it was an inspiration, although the film told us that apes are ultimately more human than human beings. In the opera, this is only true under certain conditions, revealing this primarily in the character of the Duca, whose love of Gilda offers him an opportunity for greater humanity. All the others behave as crudely as animals, although animals are only following their instincts. I must confess that I have long had an interest in the behavior of animals, especially primates. My very first job, as a matter of fact, was in the Institute of Behavioral Studies in Seewiesen, which I started after completing my studies in film editing. Back then I was a great admirer of Jane Goodall, who had lived among the chimpanzees. I remember how horrified this zoologist was when she was forced to discover that her adored monkeys were capable of waging war, that they also battled without any reason, and massacred one another out of vengefulness. That was such a incredibly shattering experience for her because she actually believed monkeys were better humans. On the other hand, our attempts to project our human behavior on animals are centuries old, and there are countless examples of this in art history. The monkeys are usually used as a two-way mirror that continuously raises the question: which is more "human" - humans or animals? Today's genetic research has discovered that humans differ only slightly from primates in their genetic potential, which confirms how thin the layer of our civilization is. In view of this fragility of civilizational substance, every cultural effort is so endlessly important. This is why it is also so important not to lose music and the art form of opera as an option, an appeal to us to behave in a civilized fashion, because there is no point fooling ourselves: the majority of young people have already lost these cultural values, that is to say, they no longer have them on their radar screens. And herein lies the third consideration of the Rigoletto concept, that we are most likely to bring across this art to the 30 to 40 generation if we tell our story in the images of our modern media world, and thus keep them alive. After all, it is a total cultural horror scenario that all the opera houses might one day collapse and with them all the treasures of our operatic and musical culture. And here I speak from my own highly personal experience: only four years ago, when I started doing my own operatic productions, did I begin to realize what I had been missing by not knowing and enjoying this operatic treasure. That is why I now believe that we must do everything we can to make opera more easily accessible, to expand its area of influence. Otherwise things may start looking like our first scene, where the opera houses have almost all disappeared, because they're flat broke anyway, and because the cultureless have gained the upper hand.
