Estres - 103 Recetas Para una Vida Libre de Stress (Spanish, Paperback)

Edwin Mavunika Mapara TB and AIDS are visiting and touching many homes in both the developed and developing countries leaving misery, suffering, orphans and in many cases death, that could have been prevented and avoided. It is for those friends that I had social intercourses with on those Friday and Millions of people lead healthy, sexually active lives with herpes.

Although herpes symptoms can be managed with medication and treatment, the stigma associated with the infection can negatively impact self-esteem and become a problem in itself. This complete guide to living with genital herpes, written by internationally recognized herpes expert Terri Though most are initially unaware of the infection, those diagnosed may face diffi-cult questions about how they acquired herpes and how to manage it. This book provides a balanced perspective on medical and emotional issues including: It also contains detailed advice on recovery following vaginal and caesarean births.

Like many pregnancies, this invaluable floor— and core—centred book is well overdue… Hold It Mama will help you — - recover core None the less, the smallpox virus killed over million people in the 20th century prior to its eradication in In recent years, the outbreaks of several lethal viruses such as Ebola and hanta virus have caused great public concern. In her fascinating and vividly written Why, When, How and What after by Joe Kabyemela Hysterectomy is the most commonly performed major surgical procedure for women.

It is done for a whole variety of reasons and ways of performing the procedure have evolved a great deal. Anybody undergoing the procedure ought to be involved in all the major decisions on why, when, how, alternatives, and what to expect after, in the short and long term. On the one hand that our efforts to enhance our efficiency are bearing fruit, and on the other hand that our substantial capital investments in our global market presence and innovation over the past years are paying off.

Sales for the first time exceed two billion Swiss francs. The increase in orders received is primarily due to Asia and Europe. In Europe, the acquisition of Schmidt-Seeger accounts for about half of this growth. The splitting of our product range into a Top-Line for our demanding applications and a lower-cost Standard-Line contributed substantially to this success.

All three divisions contributed to this considerable growth in sales. The development of order intake is also roughly reflected in geographical terms: The appreciation of the Swiss franc was a great challenge. We countered it by taking various measures, including primarily price adjustments, intensified outsourcing of purchases to the euro and dollar regions, an increase in weekly work hours in Switzerland, and a rise in productivity in all divisions.

In addition, project controlling was further optimized. With an EBIT margin of Thus, profitability was again within our long-term target bandwidth. The balance sheet shows high solidity also in the year under review. Continued optimization and strengthening at all fronts.

Regardless of the gloomier environment that prevailed in the year under review, we systematically adhered to our strategic thrust. This is borne out, among other things, by the unchanged high innovation rate. These funds were used for the new and further development of products with a focus on nutrition, safe foods, and energy efficiency. We are thus satisfying a proven market need, as was demonstrated in a recent customer survey that we conducted.

These funds primarily flowed into additional production capacities in India, China, South Africa, and Brazil. With the acquisition of a production facility in the Czech Republic as of January , we added to our capacities in Eastern Europe. As for the site in Switzerland, a total of about CHF 70 million have been earmarked for modernizing the factory at our headquarters during the years through Sharp rise in headcount.

As in the years before, we continued our systematic and targeted employee development efforts also in China accounted for half the increase, and the acquisition of Schmidt-Seeger for most of the balance. Thus, in the past two years, we created over 1, additional jobs. New member of the Board of Directors. Effective December 15, , Ms. Ruth Metzler was appointed as a new member of the Board of Directors.

Cautiously optimistic for But in view of the uncertain economic situation, we do not expect more than a moderate increase in volume. Also for , we must assume that the macro-economic environment will be characterized by continued volatility and many imponderables, for example in the field of exchange rates. To these short-term factors, we must add long-term global challenges such as fiercer competition for natural resources and, as a consequence, rising raw commodity prices. We have thus laid excellent foundations that allow us to look forward with quite some confidence beyond the short-term horizon.

Our success would never have been possible without our loyal and highly qualified workforce. We therefore extend our warmest thanks to all our employees the world over for their tireless and enormous dedication, which is carried by a high level of motivation. We thank our customers and other business partners for their great trust in our organization and for their inspiring and highly appreciated collaboration. In addition to the sales and production sites, our local Service Stations are included here for the first time.

In recent years, this topic has come under considerable public scrutiny. Consumers want to know where their food comes from and under which conditions it has been produced. Our machines are designed in accordance with the most exacting standards of food hygiene. Safe and ergonomic workplaces designed in cooperation with specialists in food processing ensure hygienic operations.

Compliance with future safety standards entails a stronger focus on validation methods for food production processes. Kubex T allows clean profits. Its efficiency and compact design would be enough to make the Kubex T the pellet mill of choice for animal feed; but its compliance with rigorous hygienic standards gives it an edge in a contested market where the safety of the feed is at a premium. A number of other sophisticated features make the machine very easy to clean.

While in operation, the power unit is slightly pressurized, which prevents dust settlement. Hygienic design, both inside and outside, further impedes settlement of product particles of any kind. In addition, surfaces are heated to prevent conden- sation. The bottom line is a robust and energy-efficient feed mill with an output of up to 80 metric tons per hour.

The Kubex T sets new benchmarks. On the interior, dust settlement and condensation are minimized through pressurization and surface heating. Residue cannot accumulate in hard-to-access pockets, thus enhancing food safety, while less maintenance and shorter interruptions mean more profitable operations.

Even though the compact pellet mill requires little floor area, it can be serviced and cleaned without forcing technicians to squeeze into a confined space. This also holds true for energy consumption and optimized processes. For our clients, detailed analysis will highlight possible steps for economization. Being able to precisely record cost accounting leads to a more conscious use of energy.

The new process is based on a sophisticated scientific approach: The pasta is dried throughout the drying cycle in its rubbery state, also at the pasta surface — which is ideal for moisture diffusion and stress relief. Last but not least the desired cross-linking within the gluten structure of the pasta is facilitated this way. This result is pasta of outstanding quality. Moreover, the EcothermatikTM is also revolutionary regarding energy-efficiency.

The amount of vitamines, minerals and nutrients in the raw material from which our food is produced can be boosted by using Smart Processing. The potential is enormous: Even today, a third of the global crop is being lost before it can even be used. In food processing, a lot of the valuable properties end as side products. With Smart Processing, a procedure has already been developed that yields more nutrients in a natural way.

More nutrients, less antinutrients in pulse by controlled part-germination and drying for stabilisation. ROF, flatulence factor — 70 Minerals: Iron, dialysed Zinc, dialysed Calcium, dialysed 0. This is especially significant in Asia where cereals and lentils have an important place in the diet. With this technology pulse can macerate, start germinating and can then be stabilised. The process is stopped at exactly the moment the optimal ratio of minerals, nutrients and vitamines is reached. Chickpeas, lentils, beans etc. After a processing period of three to five days in which pulse begins to germinate, the foodstuff has been rendered more valuable.

Also the level of sugar rises which makes the end product taste sweeter, a desired side effect. Macinated, partly germinated and finally dried pulse turnes into an even more valuable raw material and ingredient for the food industry. The increase in sales is largely attributable to the acquisition of Schmidt-Seeger in September Sales developed along varied lines in the different business units, with all the business units growing on the basis of adjusted exchange rates.

Also the operating result of the divi- sion remained at a high level. Thanks to the acquisition of Schmidt-Seeger, the markets in Western and Eastern Europe achieved an above-average result. On the other hand, growth slackened somewhat in North America in the course of the year. In Asia, the Chinese market once again developed very briskly. In fiscal , the Grain Handling and Malting units to- gether with Schmidt-Seeger were successfully merged into the new Grain Logistics business unit with four market segments.

The division is thus in a position to further strengthen its activities in the field of grain processing. This offers customers new possibilities for integrating the entire value chain with a view to assuring the quality and traceability of foods. Development of the business units. Grain Milling, the business unit with the strongest sales revenue of CHF million, maintained its level of sales achieved in Whereas the emerging markets presented an encouraging picture, business development was sub- dued in Europe and North America. Its strategy of selectively differentiating its range of products and services on global a basis according to specific cus- tomer needs paid off also in the year under review.

The Specialty Milling segment developed additional products that cater to the trend toward more health and convenience in nutrition. Moreover, processes are now under develop- ment which give special consideration to local eating habits. In the Medium Market segment, the first complete flour mills were sold in China. A substantial increase was also achieved in order intake, which was especially attributable to orders received from emerging markets. In the Feed business, additional cus- tomer segments were developed. The Oil segment won a new key account in Europe.

Development of the Biomass segment was more subdued. With an order backlog as of the end of that was markedly higher than a year ago, the business unit can confidently look forward to the future. The unit specifically suffered from the lower volumes from the South- east Asian rice industry, but also faced a difficult market environment in Europe. Business development was posi- tive in North and South America and in China.

In the context of the integration of Sanmak, a Brazilian company acquired in , an initial technology transfer has proved to be highly successful and has created the basis for gaining substantial market share in South America. In the Rice segment, the relocation of research and development from Europe to Asia was completed. The Schmidt-Seeger company acquired in the previous year contributed substantially to this result.

In the second half, two large- scale grain terminal contracts were signed in Saudi-Arabia. Beside Asia, positive signals were also received from Africa and North America. The Malting segment once again faced an adverse market environment, but a glimmer of hope appeared toward the end of the year.

The integration efforts, including consolidation of the product portfolio, made good headway. In fiscal , the Grain Processing division once again invested substantially in research and development. This in- vestment is reflected on the one hand in its numerous product developments and launches in all business units. On the other hand, it shows the substantial spending on the further im- provement of processes for enhancing the productivity of plant and equipment.

The division started the current fiscal year with a solid order backlog of CHF million, which partly extends into the year The prices of agricultural commodities remain very high, but have somewhat leveled off over the past months. In China, plans are to selectively strengthen the Medium Market segment. We continue to assume that growth will be centered on the emerging markets especially in Asia and Latin America. The reason for this is the marked pressure on the industrial extension of the value chain in these countries to enable the sharply growing population to be supplied with food also in the future.

Sunday Ipadeola in front of a bin for cleaned corn. This inactivates the enzymes and eliminates the bitter substances. In addition to measures taken in connection with building construction in the form of easy-to-clean surfaces, stainless steel is systematically used for all the equipment throughout the production process from the grinding system onward.

Uncompromising sanitation is also maintained when it comes to the climate inside the building.

Efficient, controlled ventilation ensures clean air and a stable climate without any risk of condensation on the building structures and equipment. This is a special challenge in the warm and humid atmo- sphere prevailing in the western Africa. Soybeans and corn maize are supplied in bulk tanker trucks. A purpose-designed pneumatic suction conveying system moves the grain to the storage bins without the product ever coming into contact with the outside world.

If required, it is automatically transferred to the cleaning system. The consistently and carefully cleaned grain then undergoes further processing. On two separate product lines, five metric tons of corn flour and two tons of soy flour are produced each hour, which are further processed either into infant foods or breakfast foods. A soybean line with a hulling system has already been added to the compact flour mill.

In early , installation work will start on the systems for receiving, storing, and cleaning sorghum, which will be processed in a new malt beverage plant. The hulls are then immediately separated from the accept product. In comparison to other processes, grinding by roller mill saves a lot of energy.

Rapid changes in general political and economic conditions in conjunction with breathtaking shifts in the markets call for an early assessment of trends and quick, bold action. For the Food Processing division, the year was character- ized by the targeted expansion of its global customer service and by innovations in the field of healthy nutrition and safe food.

Despite the unfavorable development of exchange rates and political instability in certain regions, the division returned to the path of growth after seeing a decline in sales in the previous year. All the business units made a substan- tial contribution to this uplifting increase. Setbacks were suffered in East Asia, which can primarily be explained by the natural disaster and the nuclear reactor accident in Japan. The same holds true for the Middle East and Africa, which were affected by political upheavals.

On the other hand, business in China and India grew substantially. This also applies to Europe as the most significant sales region. In response to the development of exchange rates relative to the Swiss franc, a major part of the procurement volume was out- sourced to the euro region in the course of the year, and the production sites in Europe, Asia, and the United States were expanded. The unit further expanded its position as the global market leader in breakfast cereals production technology.

The new system approach taken with integrated product lines and application support con- vinced the markets. This was reinforced by the political uncertain- ties in North Africa and the Middle East. The positive market environment, supported by a sharp decline in cocoa prices, animated numerous customers to make new capital investments. The sales revenue of the Aeroglide business unit, which provides drying systems for the Food and selected Non-Food industries, amounted in the year under review to CHF 55 million.

The unit boosted its order intake to a new record level, an accom- plishment to which also initial successes in the Medium Market segment contributed. In the course of , the Grain Drying activities were transferred to the new, global Grain Logistics business unit of the Grain Processing division. The as yet still young Nutrition Solutions segment generated sales of CHF 7 million in previous year: The new Bakery Innovation Center opened in Uzwil in the previous year was extremely well received by customers.

Integral consulting on optimizing the development of new end products for the customers of our customers generates substantial added value. With a view to seizing future sales opportunities, the division substantially increased the staffing levels of its sales and service teams in the year under review. Moreover, numer- ous new products were launched. In India and China, application laboratories were opened, and in the first quar- ter of a new food quality assurance laboratory was dedicated in the United States.

A core aspect is valida- tion, which refers to the capability of documenting the safety of production processes. The division start the year with a backlog of CHF million, which is about at the level of the previous year. One main thrust is directed at the further expansion of providing global services. Aeroglide, too, is centering its efforts on launch- ing a number of new products, and the Nutrition Solutions business unit will primarily focus on the Chinese and Afri- can markets in Investing the biggest sum in the history of the business — approx.

The company now has employees worldwide. It is well established in the industry on a global scale as the artisanal supplier of choice for specialised trade and sophisticated restaurants. The most important export markets currently are the U. In addition to the 32 already existing shops in Switzerland, further stores will be opened this year. It is used to grind roasted cocoa nibs. Our family lived in the production building. When my Dad entered the flat, he used to carry the sweet scent of chocolate — as a kid I simply adored it. This is why chocolate translates to me as happiness.

You can create joy for others — and yourself! Chocolate is my declared passion, and I am passionate about innovating the business. Why do you invest millions into processing your own cocoa? Cocoa is our most important resource. By controlling the cocoa production we can guarantee the very highest quality. And we also get to know our cocoa farmers.

Indeed, family is one of our brand values. Valuing Swiss origin means that our products are created exclusively in Switzerland. Is this cooperation a clear win-win situation? We are a very small manufacturing company whose production has to be flexible. Our company will continue to be run by our family.

Two of my six children are already involved in the business. They were also consulted prior to the investment. After the Advanced Materials division had impressively restored its growth in the previous year, considerable growth rates were achieved also in , both in terms of sales revenue turnover and order intake. This success is primarily due to the Die Casting business unit, which benefited from the boom in the auto- motive industry. This success is especially due to the sales achieved with the Ecoline series die casting machines for the Medium Market segment and various existing and new key accounts in the car manufacturing industry.

Geographically speaking, China, Germany, and the United States and Canada made above-average strides, whereas Eastern Europe and Russia showed some weak- ness. On a global scale, China advanced for the first time ever in to the position of the largest single market for this business unit; in Europe, this continued to be Germany. As for order intake, a historical peak was achieved in the year under review, with occasionally almost tumultuous developments subsiding toward the end of the year.

The volatile exchange rate situation was particularly felt as a result of the depreciation of the U. In Europe, the challenge was met by targeted outsourcing of purchases to the euro region. The gloomier business prospects occasionally prompted customers to postpone projects. Due to signs of emerging excess capacities, especially the solar industry showed a certain restraint in its capital spending. On the other hand, signals were positive from the area of printed electronic applica- tions.

Generally speaking, the business unit shifted its product mix further toward high-tech applications, in particular display panels and electronics. The integration of Draiswerke Inc. As was already perceived toward the end of , the PET industry showed a marked tendency toward making new investments. As a result of this impressive development of business, addi- tional specialists had to be hired in the field of engineering. The young Nanotechnology business unit slightly increased its sales revenue and focused its efforts on the further development of the market for Oxylink additives, which are used in environmentally friendly water-based coatings.

In the year under review, the division invested substantially in research and development. In the Die Casting business unit, the priority was set on the further development of the two-platen Carat line and the Ecoline series, which was launched in and which has met with huge success in the marketplace. The Trias three-roll mill, which was developed two years ago, continued its success of the previous year. The Thermal Processes business unit successfully tested different innovations, which are to be incorporated in marketable products in the near future.

The division expects a sound business development also in , which however is likely to be somewhat quieter be- cause of the slowing of the business cycle. What fills the division with confidence is the order backlog of CHF million at the start of In particular the Die Casting and Thermal Processes business units started the current fiscal year with a comfortable backlog of orders.

The necessity of investing in die casting technology to meet demand for new-generation engines, in conjunction with an increase in the use of structural components, is expected to continue to bolster up business. In view of the sustained global intensification of efforts to recycle PET bottles, the Thermal Processes business unit faces the mid-term future with some confidence.

Sales by business units. Liquidity risk refers to the risk of the Group being unable to fulfill its obligations when due or at a reasonable price. The Group Treasury department is responsible for monitoring liquidity, financing, and repayment. In addition, liquidity and financing risks and the related processes and guidelines are checked by corporate management.

Free cash flow represents the main source of financing. If required, the Group also has recourse to approved lines of credit. Another goal is to optimize the cost of capital. Group management re- views the capital structure of the Group and the equity of Group compa- nies on a regular basis. As at December 31, the equity ratio stood at Based on this assessment, the measures required for risk management in the company are defined and monitored.
