A new national survey of pediatricians and moms found that 100 percent fruit juice does matter when it comes to children's health and nutrition.
The survey found that nearly all moms agree that there is a major difference between 100 percent fruit juice and "juice drinks," but nearly 60 percent did not realize that beverages containing less than 100 percent juice cannot be called fruit juice.
Although 81 percent of the moms surveyed agreed that "juice drinks" with very little fruit juice don't provide much more nutritional benefit than sugar water or soft drinks, 56 percent of moms don't always read nutrition labels to make sure what they are buying is 100 percent juice.

"Get ready for the biggest party of the Summer," he declared.
---------------The next day Cornelia waited all day for Marcellus to come with some word about the party.
Her mother was just getting ready to close her shop when Marcellus ran through the door.
They had been rehearsing the acts and had said nothing to the rest of the actors about what Cornelia had seen.
"Marcellus" she exclaimed, happy to see him.
Cornelia lay in her bed by the open window, staring at the darkness of night.

This chapter is based on a number of interviews with CEOs of firms, review of material written on the industry, analysis of data, and the results of a jewelry industry working group that met three times.
Rhode Island is the center of the U.S. jewelry industry, employing 25% of the U.S.
For example, one company has increased output approximately 150 percent while increasing employment 7 percent, largely through aggressive investment in automation and new process technologies.
In spite of the importance of automation, there is a general consensus that many Rhode Island jewelry firms have not fully exploited the opportunities in this area, particularly smaller costume firms, where "automation is non-existent."

Given the resurgence of body piercing among young adults, employers of lifeguards must be aware of the issues surrounding body piercing and develop body piercing policies which relate to the essential job functions of a lifeguard.
Injury potential and risk of infection varies tremendously by predominant type of tissue at the piercing site along with corresponding blood flow to the area.
For these reasons, policies should be specific to the type of piercing.
Navel, nipple, eyebrow and tongue piercings are never appropriate for lifeguards on duty.
Cases have been documented where body jewelry has been torn from lifeguards during rescues.
