Mon, 2009-07-20 13:52 — maritzaqThe UA supports podcasting through its participation in Apple Inc.'s iTunes U, a resource to thousands of free educational audio and video tracks. Over 400 colleges and universities in North America and around the world are participating. Podcasts can be audio or video recordings of classroom lectures, a series of videos on a particular topic, and presentations using Powerpoint or Keynote that are exported to Apple's iTunes U format.
Podcasts use RSS feeds to push new tracks to subscribers.
Recorded lectures enable the UA to fulfill ADA guidelines by aiding students with disabilities. They give students additional opportunities to learn new or difficult material. Faculty may create podcasts that complement course lectures in which they discuss more complex problems, real-world experiences, and other topics that further engage students in learning.
A UA professor teaches a course on general microbiology to approximately 200 students. He records audio of his lectures on a digital recorder and uploads each lecture to iTunes U. Students listen to all or parts of the lectures to prepare for exams or better understand course content. A survey of UA faculty podcasting their course lectures has found no real or perceived increase in students cutting class.
A faculty member in the Linguistics Department records guest speakers giving presentations at the department's lecture series. There are over 120 lectures recorded between fall semester 2007 and spring semester 2011. The first week that a new recorded lecture is added it is downloaded over 250 times. Consider the exposure your department's lectures will receive on iTunes U!

SQL Backup - 7.2
Installing on a SQL Server cluster
This topic explains how to install or upgrade the SQL Backup server components on SQL Server clusters.
You can install the SQL Backup server components on all SQL Server instances in a cluster at the same time. If you have a SQL Backup multi-server license, you can then activate SQL Backup on all of the nodes.
Note that if you are using SQL Backup with clustered SQL Servers, you are strongly recommended to save backup files on a shared drive within the cluster. This ensures that the backups are available in the event of failure of one of the clustered SQL Servers.
When you install the server components on a cluster, the SQL Backup Agent service application is clustered so that it can run backup and restore operations on whichever cluster node is active. In addition, the following registry keys in the SQL Backup branch are replicated:
- BackupSettingsGlobal\<instance name>
- BackupSettings\<instance name>
These registry keys contain details of saved SQL Server settings, templates, and other resources that are specific to SQL Backup. Note that SQL Backup scheduled backup jobs, scheduled restore jobs and log shipping jobs are replicated by the SQL Server instance.
It is also possible to install the server components on a SQL Server cluster unattended using the command line. For more information, see Installing SQL Backup server components unattended.
Before you install the SQL Backup server components for the first time, consider the following:
- On which clustered instance do you want to install the components?
- Do you want to use the Windows® authentication of the account, or a separate SQL Server authentication?
- The recommended method for installing the server components on a cluster involves running SQBServerSetup.exe from one of the clustered machines on which the components will be installed. When you install in this way, more information is provided if a problem occurs (particularly for post-installation checks).
Note that, from SQL Backup 6.3, it is no longer possible to use the SQL Backup GUI to remotely install server components to clustered servers.
For the installation, you will need to know:
- the account name and password of the administrator for all cluster nodes
- the account name and password that the SQL Backup Agent service application will run as; you are recommended to use a domain account rather than a local or built-in account
Upgrading from a previous release
If you are upgrading from a previous release of the SQL Backup server components to SQL Backup 7, prior to installation you must do the following:
- Ensure that no existing SQL Server Agent jobs involving SQL Backup tasks are running, and none will execute during the installation process.
- Ensure that no backup processes that use SQL Backup are running, and none will start during the installation process.
- Ensure that you have uninstalled SQL Backup version 4.x installed on any of the servers.
- In the 'Cluster Administrator' disable the SQL Backup Resource. This prevents the cluster from being failed over if there is a problem with the SQL Backup Agent during the upgrade process.
Installing using SQBServerSetup.exe
To install SQL Backup on a SQL Server cluster, copy SQBServerSetup.exe to the active node on the cluster, and run the program.
1. Welcome page
The following page is displayed:
You can cancel the installation at any time prior to the files being copied by clicking Cancel. The following dialog box will be displayed. Click Yes to cancel the installation; no files will be installed or upgraded.
2. Selecting instances
When you click Next on the Welcome page, a list of available instances is displayed. The list contains instances local to the computer from which you are running the setup program, and clustered instances for the SQL Server cluster that the computer is participating in.
The information in the lower pane indicates which architecture the SQL Server instance is using: 32-bit, 64-bit, or Itanium. For example, a SQL Server 2000 instance running on a 64-bit computer is listed as using 32-bit architecture because the SQL Server instance runs in 32-bit mode.
If you are upgrading the components to the same major version of SQL Backup (for example, from version 7.0 to 7.1), SQL Backup remembers the previous settings and takes you straight to the Ready to Install page of the wizard (step 7) when you click Next.
3. Cluster installation options
The Setup wizard detects that the SQL Server is part of a cluster, and provides the option to install SQL Backup on all the cluster nodes. If the check box is cleared, the server components are not installed as a clustered resource and you must configure the cluster manually (see Manually installing SQL Backup server components on clusters (Windows Server 2003) and Manually installing SQL Backup server components on clusters (Windows Server 2008)). You are recommended to select the check box and let the installer configure the server components as a clustered resource for you.
You must then enter the account name and password for a user that is an administrator on all nodes on the cluster (a 'cluster' administrator).
The Setup wizard also provides the option to automatically fail over to another cluster node if the SQL Backup Agent service cannot be started. You are recommended to clear this check box if you do not want all the resources in the group to failover. (Note that this option is not available if you are upgrading the server components.)
Cluster nodes lists all computers that are participating in the clustered SQL Server instance. In this example, there are two nodes: SQLCLUSTER1 and SQLCLUSTER2.
When you click Next, the account name and password are checked on all the cluster nodes. If any of the nodes cannot be correctly authenticated, an error message is displayed. In the example below, the authentication information was valid for SQLCLUSTER1 but not for SQLCLUSTER2.
4. SQL Backup Agent service application credentials
For any new installation, the installer requires information about which account the SQL Backup Agent service application will run as. The SQL Backup Agent performs SQL Backup backup and restore operations, maintains the SQL Backup activity history, and communicates information to the SQL Backup graphical user interface.
A Built-in account can be any account from those listed in the wizard. By default, this is Local System, but it can also be Local Service or Network Service.
For a clustered installation, you are recommended to use a domain account rather than a built-in account; select This account and enter the credentials. The Setup wizard checks that:
- The account name and password are correct.
- The account has sufficient permissions to run as a service, including the Log on as a service permission. If this permission has not been granted, the SQL Backup installer will attempt to grant the permission. For information on the permissions required for the SQL Backup Agent service, see Security Model.
If the credentials are not valid, an error message is displayed:
5. SQL Server authentication mode
For any new installation, the SQL Backup Agent service application needs to know whether to connect using the Windows authentication of the account it runs as, or to use a separate SQL Server authenticated account.
You can check the authentication details that you have entered by clicking Test. The Setup wizard tests that the account has sufficient SQL Server permissions (the SQL Backup Agent service application requires sysadmin privileges). If it has sufficient permissions, the following message is displayed.
If any other message is displayed, the credentials you have entered are incorrect, or the account does not have sysadmin privileges.
6. Data store location
SQL Backup stores data about backup and restore operations in a SQL Server Compact database. This information includes error and warning messages and various statistics such as compression details. SQL Backup also creates a log for each backup or restore process that it runs.
Specify locations on a shared disk that are accessible by all nodes in the cluster to store the database and logs. The location must be specified as a local path (for example, E:\SQLBackupData\(local)\), and not as a UNC path (for example, \\server\share\(local)\).
7. Installation location
A summary is displayed, showing the location in which the server components will be installed. By default this is %ProgramFiles%\Red Gate\SQL Backup 7\<instance name> or %ProgramFiles (x86)%\Red Gate\SQL Backup 7\<instance name>.
Note: It is not possible to specify the location in which the server compnents are installed from the wizard. If you want to specify the location, run SQBServerSetup.exe from the command line and use the /PATH
parameter. For more information see Installing SQL Backup server components unattended.
This is the last point at which you can cancel the installation. When you click Install, the Setup wizard will install or upgrade the SQL Backup server components.
8. Installation progress
The progress of the installation is displayed.
The installer performs the following tasks:
- If the SQL Backup Agent service application is currently running, it is taken offline. Any backup or restore operations that are in progress are stopped.
- The server components are installed to the specified location on disk.
- Registry settings for the SQL Backup Agent service application are generated. These can be modified later using the SQL Backup graphical user interface.
- The SQL Backup Agent service application is created with the supplied credentials.
- For the cluster:
- The installer is copied to the same location on each of the computers in the cluster in turn. The SQL Backup server components are installed with the same settings as the current computer.
- The service is registered with the Cluster Administrator, and the registry keys are added to the clustered resource so that they will be copied between computers in the cluster and are always available to SQL Backup.
- Finally, the installer attempts to start the service.
If there are any problems during installation (such as the service failing to start), a warning message is displayed to inform you of the problem. For example:
9. Installation summary
When the installation has completed, the completion page is displayed.
The server components should now be correctly installed on the cluster. If any warnings were displayed during the installation (in stage 8), you can resolve them now by following the instructions in the message.
Once the upgrade process is successfully completed, re-enable the SQL Backup Resource in the SQL Server Service.
Activating on clusters
Once you have installed the server components, you will need to activate SQL Backup on the cluster. For general information about activating, see Activating SQL Backup. In addition, when you activate on clusters, note the following points.
To activate SQL Backup on a cluster:
- You must have a multi-server license key. You can review your serial numbers at http://www.red-gate.com/myserialnumbers
- You must use the Product Activation wizard. This is installed in your %Program Files%\Red Gate\SQL Backup 7 folder. Alternatively, you can start the program from the SQL Backup graphical user interface; on the Tools menu, select Utilities, then select Product Activation.

Never too early to dream of the next board corner!
Considering everything we've seen so far, I'm going to say that the final corner, most likely a Woodlands or Forest themed set, will have a much higher quotient of Magic themes. More Magic villians, weapons, spells etc.
Without Signature
Page 1 of 2 (27 messages) | 1 2 ...Last page » |
My guess is a magic forest, although I would really love to see necropolis leaving from the graveyard. Although, before that happens, we are going to get a small box. As the themes for those are quite varied and have no basis in any previous versions, it's really a wild guess, My guess is something goblin themed.
Without Signature
I wonder what for goal you can make for a forest expansion.
I think that it must be at least a mid level board, and not something as the dungeon expansion
I like to see a good balance between enemies and objects
Weak characters such as spell casters, can level up a bit here.
Forest expansion with all the swamps, sacred spots, glades etc. sounds very climatic. Here's my vision: The further we go into the forest, the difficulty level goes up. First spaces are quite easy - draw x cards. Then we start to get spaces similar to Runes Space in the middle region of the main board (enemy's get modifiers +1/+5). Of course at the end player has the chance to fight powerful boss, and the reward is a magic item which protects the owner from the Command Spell (limited to x spells only).
OK, but wha't next? After 4 corner expansions are there gonna be any more big ones with boards?
Without Signature
To be perfectly honest, I'm ambivalent about what the fourth corner board will be. The Dungeon and the The City were the two I was waiting for. I'll probably pick up Highlands and whatever #4 is as well, just to round things out, but it doesn't much matter to me what it actually is. Magic Forest sounds cool. Graveyard does too.
As for future expansions, they could always make alternate corner boards and say you can only use one board from each corner per game.

My hope is for some sort of land of the dead/afterlife board, with a lot of cards that depend on your life amount (maybe powerful items that drain your life or enemy undead that add your life value to their attack score).
You go to dungeon to gain Str/Craft, to highland to gain gold, to city to gain items, so this board should be about gaining life and fate.
Everything you do, think, or say,
is in the pill you took today.
As for small expansions, I've been hoping for the last 1-2 years that we would get one with advanced careers, like archmage or master thief.
Everything you do, think, or say,
is in the pill you took today.
I hope that the 4th corner will be with different board mechanics (like Timescape from 2nd ed.). Something that you can pass by rather quickly but dangerous and giving some good bonuses at the end (new kind of cards). I think Island/Sea board would fit this quite well. Probably they give us Forrest for the 4th corner but another board with the same maechanics would be boring. But FFG can surprise us :)
I personally hope to see Graveyard/Crypt style board expansion with lots of Zombies/Skeletons/Wraiths/Vampires/Liches etc. as monster cards and some reanimation objects to create your personal army of the dead for the 4th corner of the main board. It would feel damn right thematic when you play Ghoul, Vampiress, Vampire Hunter, Graverobber, Necromancer, Dread Knight :)
Love the Undead themed corner board idea…and also the Advanced Class! That would be awesome but I don't know how they could implement this without "denaturing" the gameplay Talisman is known for. It souldn't add too much stuff (like The Dragon, which is the only expansion I didn't buy)…but I don't kow, maybe add some skill cards the you can "buy" at some spaces.
Idea: Some skills could be available only if your character has a precise amount of STR or Craft to be able to buy the skill with Trophies or Gold…
Anyways, i'm eagerly waiting to receive The City even though we mostly play 2-player games, we'll play with all 3 boards just for the kick!

3rd edition forest had a very strong focus on craft, while dungeon had a strong focus on strength.
Forest 3rd
End villain with craft 6 (Win = 2 gold and a talisman)
7 strength monsters with 3,1pt average (21% to draw)
9 craft monsters with 4pt average (27% to draw) (including the strongest in the game outside the Tower) and the only region with a 5, 6 and 7 craft opponent.
But even the two goblins required a craft roll before fighting, else you had to subtract two from your score in battle.
And look at the cards;
No cards that give bonuses to strength or battle.
Sword of Power: Use craft instead of strength in battle
Magus: Gain craft
Scroll: Gain a spell
Forest temple: Roll a dice and add craft, gain spell for 9+.
Magic Mushroom: Roll a dice, may win craft or spell.
… and the space;
Mystic Glade: chance to miss a turn or gain craft, life or spell
But note how 4th edition is compared to 3rd edition, so this might change;
Dungeon 3rd
12 strength monsters with 4,6pt average (34% to draw)
2 craft monsters with 2pt average (5% to draw)
End villain with strength 6
Win = 2 gold and a talisman
Dungeon 4th
44 strength monsters with 3pt average (47% to draw)
33 craft monsters with 2,8pt average (35,5% to draw)
End villain with 12 strength and 12 craft
Win = 1 treasure and teleport
Both forest and undead corners sound cool. Why not a haunted forest? Oh hell yes!
I like the Forest idea. But Desert (Aladin themed) would be nice too.
And not only if we talk about the fourth corner… i think that The Dragon is one of the best board expansions and it is not a corner…
Really, almost each square or space of the main board is an idea for a new expansion: The hidden valley, the Vampires…
If you cry by losing the sun, your tears will not let you to see the stars
After the City we can count on at least one small expansion and one big corner expansion. Possibly one more small and one more big to come.
Going by theme and setting, there are plenty of ideas to develop, as you already imagined.
Forest-related lore and creatures: elfs,sprites,brownies,treants,animals, big savage monsters; druids and stone circles; secret glades; it's a good Expansion to finallly see Ranger (or Scout), Woodsman, Halfling and some kind of Witch Doctor
Undead creatures are spread throughout the expansions, I don't see the point of making a new expansion focused on them. The Blood Moon already added lots of undead creatures and a gothic horror theme, but I admit that the low level undead archetypes are missing (no Skeletons and Zombies around).
Desert and Arabian Nights could be an idea for a new Middle-Inner Region, but then Adventure cards would be available only in the Outer Region, which is not a good idea.
Sea and pirates could have been a good alternative idea to the City, but I admit that I'm fascinated by FFG last work, so I don't miss them. A separate board could work, implementing ships (or captains like Runebound) to travel around.
I don't have many ideas for small expansions: master classes are a possible topic, but they really need to work in a different way. Dark and Light Fate is another idea. In fact, there are no portions of the game that require expanding.
A wizard is never too late. Nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.
I see dark/light fate being the main focus of the next small box expansion!

That would be a missed opportunity and I really hope that small box will NOT feature dark/light fate. This mechanic begs to be included in 4th corner expansion.
The way I see it:
- we have too many adventure cards , so adding a few dark/light cards inside the pool will not be noticeable
- we have too few dungeon/highlands (and probably city) cards
- every corner expansion should serve a purpose, is there anything left for "forest" (or graveyard, whatever comes next)? apart from craft focus ? another boss to defeat? that would be boring. I really hope dark/light tokens are there. If any player takes a lead, other characters could go to forest , get dark fate and try to make life harder for leader.

After over 33 years of repairing and servicing import cars, Thom and I have seen so many changes throughout those years. Not only have car designs and technology changed, people have changed too. The way we drive, the way we use our cars, the roads we travel, and the demands of time, for everyone. Newer technologies have brought their share of changes for the good, as well as the not so good. We've seen the quality of parts decrease while the prices increase. There's definitely been no shortage of changes, to say the least.
The most important change we've seen, however, is the number of phone calls coming in with people asking us how much it is to repair their cars. We realize that it's frequently the only question that consumers know to ask about their cars. While price is a consideration, the really important information to know is:
- How knowledgeable and ethical is the technician and the company providing the service?
- How long have they been in business?
- What is their guarantee on parts on labor?
- How will the company handle a problem if one arises?
- What services does the company offer to repair your vehicle efficiently?
You want to know that your car will get you where you need to go, safely, without failure. Servicing and repairing your car can be an uncomplicated and worry free task; that's why you come to Marshall Motors. Rather than talk price over the phone, we will perform a 15 minute complimentary inspection on your car at no charge and verify what repairs need to be performed to give an accurate cost.

First timer
I've never ridden in a big bunch before, so the initial 16km was rather exciting and equally as nerve racking. A motorbike, complete with cameraman, whizzed up and down the peloton which lent an air of actually participating in a professional road race. The first climb went very well but I ascended too quickly, highlighting my inexperience riding alpine climbs. I was exhausted at the top and still had another two cols to overcome.
The descent was a fantastic relief and first time for me on such roads. The initial feeling of excitement, as I looked down at the series of switchbacks, will remain with me for some time. Once I reached the flat it was hot and for the climb up to the Col du Glandon it remained so, with very little shade. In truth, I have never suffered so much on a bike. Up to this point, it hadn't occurred to me how tough climbing can be on the mind. The body can take the endless pedal rotations, the dehydration and the cramps; but the mind stubbornly and frequently argued for cessation. This conflict continued for the entire ride. Although my dialogue was internal you could clearly see other participants openly talking to themselves.
The last 2km were fantastically arduous but the large turnout of spectators spurred my progress. My initial thought upon finishing was a renewed and revised respect for what the pro peloton put themselves through for three weeks. How insignificant my suffering was!

I love the anticipation in the preceding days before an etape, and try to reassure those who show nerves – "What's the latest weather? Are you taking any gels? What tyre pressure should I use?" – with a suggestion to concentrate on enjoying the day, not worrying about it.
It's great fun working at the Start Village, but not so good for the preparation. Long days on your feet, no time to check the bike, an exhibition diet and little sleep the night before, gives the ride more of an edge. The one good bit of preparation I did manage was taking full advantage of the organised 'pasta party' and put away an almighty amount of guilt-free pasta.
The ride itself was amazing. So good to be blasting away on open roads, there was the best arrangement of feed stops I've experienced on any sportive, and plenty of camaraderie with fellow etapistes. Descending through rain and cloud is a hoot, made safer by the marshals and gendarmes flagging up dangers …including a herd of cattle high on the Tourmalet.
Seeing my colleagues come in safely and in good time was a highlight. Everyone had a different look on their face, some exhausted, some exhilarated, but all with tales of highs and lows.

It was very exciting to see so many people visiting the Rapha stand in Albertville. I talked to a lot of riders, most of them were really excited and some were a bit nervous, as they had never done the Etape before. Each person had their own challenges and motivations.
For the first Etape we arrived in La Toussuire on a scorchio day and were positioned just before the finish to cheer our colleagues. There was a long wait but fortunately we were able to enjoy delicious French canapés in the A.S.O. tent in the meantime.
The second Etape was on a cold rainy day where we were giving snacks out to the brave riders on the Col d'Aspin. It was worth standing all day in the cold to give riders a push and see their grateful faces when we handed out food. The Etapes is not just a bike ride but a cycling event that brings people from all over the world together. An amazing atmosphere.

Acte 1 this year was my first etape, running head first into a metre tall wooden post on a ride the day before didn't help my chances (it also meant I didn't have time to visit the Rapha stand at registration as I was queuing at the Mavic service whilst they valiantly removed a vicious buckle from my front wheel, courtesy of the post!).
I think I realised about 5km from the top of the Madelaine that it was not going to be my day. The Glandon / Croix du Fer was infernal, I turned left at the bottom of the Mollard instead of right and quit. Full of regrets but plenty of experience to tackle next year's etape, unfinished business!

Congratulations Barney!
Totally agree with your comment about how tough climbing can be on the mind… What a sense of satisfaction though when you achieve what you set out to do.
If everything was easy life would be so boring.

7 years, 7 etapes completed. Carried 103 (nude!) kks over four Pyrennean cols this year. If you see me doing this again, shoot me. My thanks go to Rapha for helping me keep the weight up half way up col d'Aspin with 3 cheese and tomato rolls. Commiserations to Fergal. Charlie

I was one of the 300+ Eejit's who did both Etapes this year. So got to visit the Rapha stand in both Albertville and Pau and was a very happy recipient of a cheese roll on the Aspin (would have gladly bought a rain jacket at that point!)

I too qualify as an "eejit".
An eventful 10 days in France. Got off to a bad start with a car accident on the M1 one hour after setting off Thursday evening before Acte 1. Two bikes on the back written off, car trashed. Abandoned one car and driver and picked up two spare bikes (one of which is specially adapted, so he ended up with his old steel frame with old gearing). One team mate flew in and picked up a hire car, which set up start and finish jugggling puzzle. In short five os us managed to be in France with a bike each and two cars. Old spare bike got Phil up the Glandon and no further. The other four of us all finished, well ahead of the broom wagon but not in times that will impress against some of the fine efforts recorded!
Big beef about lack of proper food at end of stage. Last year there was sausage and mash. This year an apple and a packet of cakes. We were also left waiting for our abandoned colleague and the broom wagon which didn't get in until something like 8 o'clock. By the time we drove back to start to collect hire car, it was nearly midnight when we got back to our hotel in Chambery. Didn't get a proper meal!
However, 4 days down on the Med coast, eating sleeping and watching tdf on telly got two of us back in the frame for a bit more of the same. We took the line, with 2 others supporting and promising to meet at the finish with some roast chicken and decent grub. Once again the objective was to finish. Got up and over the Tourmalet over 2hours ahead of bw, albeit in the worst conditions ever - worse than Acte 2 last year, and made it to the food station. (managed to hit the slurry in La Mongie and descend sideways but still stay upright ) Set off for the Aspin, and then my chain broke. Having resigned myself to a cold wait for the wagon, and having established that in France, the Urgent phone line people and the various motor cyclists do not talk to each other, the yellow man from Mavic finally arrived, and with a cliched Gallic shrug set about changing my chain.
Having lost exactly one hour at the road side, a quick look at the clock suggested I was still in the race. Fired up like Lewis Hamilton after a pit stop I flew up the last two climbs (complete poetic licence here - I've seen the video). A welcome interlude here was being presented by the Rapha man with the "very last" of his cheese and tomato treats. Finished in time to be presented with a cold roast chicken by our two supporters. Fat bloke on bike completes 2 Etapes in a week, and I still don't know what the broomwagon looks like. Result!

/ MDP Program Overview
MDP - Program Overview
In Fiscal Year 2001, the
United States Department of Agriculture
(USDA) was charged with implementing a monitoring program to collect information regarding the incidence, number, and species of important foodborne pathogens and indicator organisms on domestic and imported fresh fruit and vegetables. USDA's
Agricultural Marketing Service
(AMS) was appointed to undertake the creation and implementation of such a program, currently known as the Microbiological Data Program (MDP). MDP began collecting and analyzing samples in April 2001.
MDP was primarily designed to provide data on microbial presence in order to establish a microbial baseline to assess the risks of contamination, if any, in the domestic food supply. The data is used to establish "benchmarks" by which to evaluate the efficacy of procedures to reduce or eliminate harmful foodborne microorganisms. The data is provided to stakeholders for decision-making purposes (e.g., Federal and State public health agencies, growers, processors, retail stores, and food handlers).
Program authorization is based on the Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act of 1946. The Federal Agriculture Appropriations Bill for Fiscal Year 2001 provided AMS with funds to initiate MDP. The program is not regulatory in nature and is part of a broader Presidential Food Safety Initiative.
MDP coordinates its planning and policy requirements with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Food and Drug Administration, the Agricultural Research Service, and the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS). MDP and NASS statisticians design appropriate sampling plans based on per capita consumption, marketplace availability, product origin, and time in transit and storage. Samples are obtained at terminal markets and chain store distribution centers.
Sample collection and testing activities are carried out with the support of 11 States California, Colorado, Florida, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin - through cooperative agreements with their respective Departments of Agriculture. MDP provides quality assurance oversight and technical/administrative support to Program participants.
The State laboratories perform analytical testing of domestic and imported produce samples for specific foodborne pathogens. The sample history and laboratory results are sent to the Monitoring Programs Division office for review and compilation. Isolated organisms are sent to reference laboratories for genomic fingerprinting, antibiotic resistance examination, and serotyping. In addition, one State laboratory collects/maintains all MDP isolates and makes them available to researchers.
The data generated from MDP are available to Federal and State Public Health agencies and industry for food safety decision-making purposes, risk modeling, and trend analyses. The information can also be used to establish benchmarks by which to evaluate the efficacy of good agricultural and manufacturing practices to reduce or eliminate harmful foodborne microorganisms and thus improve the quality and safety of the fresh produce supply.

text: Water Leak Could Prove CostlyMonday, February 25, 2013 - 5:24 AM An underground water leak is causing water to pour into the basement of Findlay's water treatment plant, and fixing it could be expensive. That could mean higher water and sewer rates, but nothing has been decided yet. Service-Safety Director Paul Schmelzer tells the Courier he will see if water increases are warranted, but isn't saying for sure if they'll move. Schmelzer has the authority to raise water rates, but city council has to adjust sewer rates. Water plant Supervisor Jeff Newcomer says the leak into the basement may be coming from a 24-inch-diameter main transmission line, and from groundwater leaking into the water plant. The pipe is roughly 25-to-30 feet under ground, and would require a massive excavation project to fix. MORE: The Courier |

Wegener's granulomatosis is a rare disease, in which the blood vessels and other tissues become inflamed. This inflammation damages important organs of the body by limiting blood flow to those organs and destroying normal tissue.
Although the disease can involve any organ system, Wegener's granulomatosis mainly affects the respiratory tract (sinuses, nose, trachea [windpipe], and lungs) and kidneys. This disorder can affect people at any age and strikes men and women equally. It is rare in African Americans compared with Caucasians.

It takes a particular kind of thief to walk away with money collected during church services. Menlo Park detectives are still hoping to determine exactly what kind of thief for themselves, as they continue to investigate who stole from the Church of the Nativity.

Was the safe locked? Did the thieves break in to the safe? Or did they steal the whole safe? Lack of detail makes this article pretty useless.
