  • Use of Almond Skins to Improve Nutritional and Functional Properties of Biscuits: an Example of Upcycling

This research aimed at verifying the effectiveness of using almond skins, a by-product of the confectionery industry, in the preparation of functional biscuits with improved nutritional properties. Almond skins were added at 10 g/100 g (AS10) and 20 g/100 g (AS20) to a wheat flour basis. The protein content was not influenced, whereas lipids and dietary fiber significantly increased (p < 0.05), the latter meeting the requirements for applying “source of fiber” and “high in fiber” claims to AS10 and AS20 biscuits, respectively. The addition of almond skins altered biscuit color, lowering L* and b* and increasing a*, but improved friability.

Maryland Career and Technology Education (CTE) Programs (Information from MSDE: http://www.marylandpublicschools.org/programs/Pages/CTE/CTEprograms.aspx) According to Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE), Career and Technology Education (CTE) prepares both youth and adults for a wide range of careers. These careers require varying levels of education- from high school and postsecondary certificates, to apprenticeships, or two- and four-year college degrees. Students add value to their overall education by completing CTE programs of study that provide opportunities to earn industry- recognized credentials and college credit while still in high school. Maryland's Career Technology Education (CTE) programs fall under clusters, groupings of interrelated occupations that represent the full range of career opportunities in key economic sectors of Maryland’s economy. College and school administrators, counselors, and faculty members are using the career cluster system to develop programs that extend from high school to two-and four-year colleges/universities, apprenticeship programs and the workplace. Maryland’s CTE Career Clusters (Information about Career Clusters: www.marylandpublicschools.org/programs/Pages/CTE-Programs-of- Study/Clusters/index.aspx) Maryland’s career clusters are driven by what students need to know and do in order to graduate fully prepared for further education and careers in the 21st century global economy.

  • Declawing Ostrich Chicks (Struthio Camelus) to Minimize Skin Damage
    South African Journal of Animal Science 2002, 32(3) 192 © South African Society for Animal Science Declawing ostrich (Struthio camelus domesticus) chicks to minimize skin damage during rearing A. Meyer1,3,#, S.W.P. Cloete2 C.R. Brown3,* and S.J. van Schalkwyk1 ¹Klein Karoo Agricultural Development Centre, P.O. Box 351, Oudtshoorn 6620, South Africa ²Elsenburg Agricultural Development Centre, Private Bag X1, Elsenburg 7607, South Africa ³School of Animal, Plant & Environmental Sciences, University of the Witwatersrand, Private Bag 3, Wits 2050, South Africa Abstract Leather is one of the main products derived from ostrich farming. Current rearing practices lead to a high incidence of skin damage, which decreases the value of ostrich skins. In the emu and poultry industry, declawing is commonly practiced to reduce skin damage and injuries. We consequently investigated declawing of ostrich chicks as a potential management practice to minimize skin lesions that result from claw injuries. A group of 140 day-old ostriches was declawed and a second group of 138 chicks served as the control. The two groups were reared separately to slaughter, but were rotated monthly between adjacent feedlot paddocks to minimize possible paddock effects. Overall, the declawed group had fewer scratch and kick marks on the final processed skin than the control group, which resulted in the proportion of first grade skins in the declawed group being more than twice that of the control group. Behavioural observations at nine and 13 months of age indicated that declawing resulted in no impairment in locomotive ability or welfare. There was a tendency for the declawed group to have higher average live weights towards the end of the growing-out phase that resulted in a 3.7% higher average skin area at slaughter than in the control group.

  • Official District Transcripts
    Official District Transcripts Important Transcript Request Information via www.GAfutures.org District students request transcripts for Board of Regents (in-state) universities and colleges and Technical College System of Georgia technical colleges through their My GAfutures account on GAfutures. Once a student makes this request, the counselor reviews and fulfills this request electronically. After the counselor fulfills the request, the transcript(s) is delivered to the postsecondary school(s) that the student has authorized/requested. The MyGAfutures account should not be used by students who need transcripts sent to NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association). This feature is currently unavailable in GAfutures. Seniors use this process. In addition, district students interested in a Dual Enrollment/Move On When Ready opportunity also use this process. Very Important: Final transcripts for Seniors (early to mid-June) will be sent to in-state schools through the MyGAfutures transcript(s) request process. Therefore, a Senior must request the final transcript for in-state schools using his/her MyGAfutures account to request that the final transcript is “fulfilled” by his/her school counselor. Seniors are to only request that a paper copy of the official transcript be processed when the purpose of the transcript is to meet admissions requirements for out-of-state college or university, to complete documentation for a scholarship(s), and/or to provide to a potential employer or the military. Any transcript questions/issues should be addressed by the student with the school counselor. HOPE Transcripts HOPE transcripts are available for all district students within 30 days of the close of each semester after transcript history is posted to district transcripts.
