This invention relates to and has among its objects the provision of a novel method for predicting the future acceptability of coarsely ground beef after regrinding and aerobic storage under specified conditions of time and temperature by measurement of the concentration of lactic acid in the sample prior to regrinding and storage.
Hamburger use is extensive in the United States. In 1982, Federally inspected ground beef totaled 3.2 billion pounds. A method for predicting the acceptability of ground beef could result in considerable economic savings by minimizing losses due to spoilage of ground beef. For example, a means to predict spoilage is important to ensure purchase of high quality meat for retail sale, for institutional use including the school lunch program and the military, and the like because it would ensure purchase of high quality meat by permitting judgment of purchase on predicted acceptability. Another important use of such a prediction method is so that a retailer, institution, etc. can make judgments for handling procedures of ground beef currently in stock so that quality control standards are met and losses due to spoilage are minimized. Another important use would be for regulatory purposes.
Refrigerated beef stored under aerobic conditions has only limited shelf life due to growth of aerobic spoilage flora in the meat, usually dominated by Pseudomonas spp., which are proteolytic bacteria and cause the "sweet-rotten" odor associated with spoiled meat. One extensively used handling practice to retard spoilage of ground beef during commercial storage and distribution from a central source is to coarse cut the beef (about 9.5 mm to 19.0 mm diameter die cut) and package it, with or without added carbon dioxide, in oxygen-impermeable casings in about 4.5 kg to 9.0 kg quantities called "chubs" or "keeper" packs. The meat is then shipped and stored under refrigeration until needed. In the anaerobically stored chub packs, there is a predominance of lactic acid-producing bacteria which are non-proteolytic, thus spoilage is retarded. Prior to sale or use, the coarsely ground beef is removed from the oxygen-impermeable casing and is reground in air to give the hamburger texture customarily used for consumption (about 5 mm diameter die cut) and its characteristic red color. This procedure causes the myoglobin in the meat to change from blue color to the red color of oxyhemoglobin associated with fresh meat. Also, the bacterial environment of the beef changes from predominantly lactic acid-producing bacteria to predominantly proteolytic microflora, such as Pseudomonas spp., and thus shelf life of the meat under conditions of aerobic storage is limited. Pseudomonas spp. which cause the "sweet-rotten" odor of spoiled meat grow under aerobic conditions which do not promote the growth of lactic acid bacteria.
A number of procedures have been proposed to correlate microbial and biochemical assays with meat spoilage but these have met with limited success. Bacterial counts are genenerally thought to be an indicator of early spoilage, with "off" odors becoming apparent when bacterial numbers reach approximately 107 cells per gram of meat. Unfortunately, bacterial counts are time consuming, taking from 5 to 10 days for accurate assessment of psychrotrophic bacteria. There is also some disagreement as to whether total bacterial counts correlate with organoleptic appraisal of the meat product and whether total or differential counts can be used to assess future acceptability. Proteolytic bacteria, such as some Pseudomonas spp., will cause spoilage at lower numbers than lactic acid-producing organisms which can produce "acid/sour" spoilage due to buildup of lactic acid. Several tests other than total bacterial counts have been tried to measure the microbial quality of processed meat. These tests, which include indicator dye methods, extract release volume, release of ammonia, pH, and titratable acidity, have proven to be of limited value and are not in use. Reductase tests, using certain dyes which act as hydrogen acceptors in measurement of dehydrogenase levels, have been tried for determining spoilage in beef. These tests are not feasible for use with ground or minced beef products due to release of cellular reductones during the grinding process.
The relationship (positive correlation) between lactic acid concentration and bacterial spoilage in coarsely ground beef stored under anaerobic conditions where lactic acid bacteria predominate and where the activity of proteolytic spoilage bacteria is minimal was reported by P. S. Nassos et al. in Applied and Environmental Microbiology 46(4): 894-900 (1983). Spoilage was determined by organoleptic acceptability testing. The increased lactic acid concentration which develops in coarsely ground beef in oxygen-impermeable casings was thought by researchers to be partially responsible for prohibiting growth of Pseudomonas spp. and other proteolytic microflora. The relationship between lactic acid and growth of proteolytic Gram-negative microflora, however, appears to be complex. Research by others gives evidence of lactic acid as a possible promotor, rather than inhibitor of growth, as some Pseudomonas spp. will utilize glucose preferentially, but once glucose is exhausted in the media, will utilize lactic acid and amino acids for growth. Because of the complex and conflicting information between lactic acid and proteolytic bacteria, none of the known research provided any suggestion as to how to predict spoilage in coarsely ground beef once it has been reground and stored under aerobic conditions where proteolytic bacteria (Pseudomonas spp.) dominate the microflora.
The invention described herein provides a method for predicting the future acceptability of coarsely ground beef after regrinding and storage under predetermined aerobic conditions by measurement of the concentration of the lactic in the sample prior to regrinding and storage. Surprisingly, although spoilage during storage of ground beef in air results from proteolytic bacteria rather than lactic-acid producing bacteria, acceptability of ground beef in the aerobic state can be predicted from the initial concentration of lactic acid in the sample, that is, the concentration in the sample prior to storage for the predetermined conditions. This method works whether the meat is stored anaerobically prior to aerobic storage or whether the ground beef is obtained directly from the processing plant without anaerobic storage. The prediction method of the invention also works whether the lactic acid is from an animal or bacterial source or combination thereof.
The method of the invention includes: step (1) setting up a data base which relates the values of the initial concentration of lactic acid in samples of coarsely ground beef to odor acceptability of the samples after regrinding and storage under aerobic conditions for a set period of time and temperature., and step (2) measuring the initial lactic acid in the test sample and predicting future acceptability, as determined by odor acceptability, with reference to the data base of step (1). Based on the prediction value of step (2), a decision is made whether the beef will be acceptable for the intended purpose.
In accordance with this discovery, it is an object of the invention to provide a method for predicting acceptibility of coarsely ground beef that will be held under a known set of storage conditions such as regrinding and repackaging which occurs in normal commercial handling practices.
It is also an object of the invention to provide a means to predict spoilage in the beef so as to ensure selection and/or purchase of high quality meat.
It is a further object of the invention to provide a method of quality control of ground beef and to provide a quick, reliable method of determining incipient spoilage in ground beef and thereby preventing economic losses of meat that should be rapidly used due to a predicted shorter shelf life.
A still further objective of the invention is to provide a method to predict acceptability of ground beef for use by regulators of the meat industry.
Other objects and advantages of this invention will become readily apparent from the ensuing description.
FIG. 1 is a graph of initial lactic acid concentration of anaerobically stored lean grade beef and percent odor acceptability determined after 6 days of aerobic storage at 7� C. The regression curve was fitted to the data with the equation: Y=aebX, where Y represents % odor acceptability, X represents lactic acid concentration, a equals 507079, and b equals -0.014.
Step 1. Setting up a data base which relates initial concentration of lactic acid in coarsely ground beef to odor acceptability of the samples after regrinding and aerobic storage for a set period of time and temperature.
The data base to predict acceptability of coarsely ground beef is prepared up as follows:
Step (a). The initial concentration of total lactic acid of samples of coarsely ground beef is measured. This initial value may be obtained on fresh coarsely ground beef or on a chub pack (anaerobically stored coarsely ground beef). The term "initial value of lactic acid" is defined as the value obtained prior to regrinding and aerobic storage under the specified conditions.
Samples to be used in setting up the data base are selected as follows: samples with varying initial lactic acid values which are obtained by selecting different pieces of meat; samples stored anerobically and subsampled at different times of storage so that different values of lactic acid are present; or a combination of these two procedures.
For this invention, the term "coarsely ground beef" is defined as meaning beef which has been ground to a range of about 9.5 to 19.0 mm diameter die cut or the equivalent. Lactic acid (CH3 CHOHCOOH) includes both D- and L-lactic acid isomers. Lactic acid is present in coarsely ground beef from two sources, as part of the composition of the animal tissue and from production by lactic acid-producing bacteria during anaerobic storage. Such bacteria include species from the genera Lactobacillus, Leuconostoc, Streptococcus, and Brochothrix. As stated above, the prediction method of the invention works whether the lactic acid is from an animal or bacterial source or a combination thereof. Lactic acid forms salts with many metals and may exist in ground beef in the salt form, e.g., sodium, zinc, and calcium salts. The method still works however because during analyses these salts are converted to lactic acid and thus measured.
Methods to measure total lactic acid in coarsely ground beef are known in the art and include enzymatic methods, gas chromatography (GC), and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). A detailed description and comparison of GC and HPLC methods for measuring lactic acid in coarsely ground beef is reported by P. S. Nassos et al., Journal of Food Science 49(3): 671-674 (1984) which is hereby incorporated by reference. Where speed of analysis is desired, the HPLC or enzymatic method is preferred as lactic acid can be determined in about one hour versus 12 hours for the GC method.
In the HPLC method, the coarsely ground beef sample is reground to a size of about 5 mm in diameter, homogenized, and filtered. An internal standard, e.g., L-tartaric acid, is added to the filtrate and the filtrate mixed with perchloric acid, and filtered to remove the protein. Prior to injection into the HPLC, the filtrate is filtered through a 4.5 micron membrane filter. Analysis is carried out using a HPLC column suitable for organic acid analysis, such as Aminex HPX-87H ion exclusion column (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Berkeley, CA), ORH-801 organic acid column (Rainin Instrument Co., Woburn, MA), or Alltech organic acid column OA-1000 (Alltech Associates Inc., Deerfield, IL). Lactic acid is calculated from its peak height or area relative to that of the internal standard.
Step (b). Odor acceptability of the samples of step (a) is measured after regrinding and aerobic storage for the specified conditions of time and temperature. As stated above, usual handling practices for commercial distribution and use (or sale) of ground beef involve storage of the beef for a narrow range of conditions of time and temperature. In most cases, the coarsely ground beef is shipped and stored in anaerobically wrapped chub packs under refrigeration (about 0�-10� C.) up to not more than about 3 weeks and then reground to normal hamburger texture (cutter diameter about 4-6 mm) and held under aerobic conditions with refrigeration (about 0�-10� C.) for short periods (about 1-4 days) until use or sale. In some cases, fresh coarsely ground beef may be distributed. The method of the invention may be used for any storage conditions which include aerobic storage. The critical feature is that the data base be set up to include the conditions under which the test samples will be handled.
Determination of odor acceptability using a sensory panel is described by P. S. Nassos et al., Appl. Environ. Microbiol., supra, p. 895. In this procedure, the sample of coarsely ground beef is presented in glass-stoppered 125-ml Erlenmeyer flasks wrapped in tissue to mask appearance. The odor samples are judged in air-conditioned booths under 7.5-W green bulbs. Sample rating is determined with a standard nine-point hedonic scale (a score of 9, like extremely; a score of 5, neither like nor dislike; and a score of 1, dislike extremely). Panel members are also asked to note whether the meat sample is acceptable or unacceptable. Percent odor acceptability of each sample is obtained from the panel judgments by calculation from the ratio of acceptable scores to the total number of judgments, or by the average hedonic scores. Either value can be used to relate odor acceptability to lactic acid concentration.
Step (c). A graphical representation such as a graph or regression equation which relates the initial values of lactic acid obtained in step (a) with the values for odor acceptability after the specified storage period obtained in step (b) is prepared. In this step, the values for lactic acid of step (a) and the values for odor acceptability of step (b) are related such as by plotting a graph of odor acceptability versus lactic acid concentration or by determining an equation for the regression curve of odor acceptability versus lactic acid concentration.
Step (d). Using the graph obtained in step (c), an uppermost limit or range of lactic acid is selected which meets odor acceptability requirements based on the requirements of the user.
Step 2. Prediction of acceptability of coarsely ground beef in test samples after aerobic storage under specified conditions of time and temperature.
To predict the future acceptability of coarsely ground beef in the test sample after aerobic storage for specified conditions of time and temperature, the concentration of total lactic acid in the sample is determined by any of the methods described above and the value compared with the graphical representation prepared in step (1). Given the value of the lactic acid in the test sample, one can determine the odor acceptability of the sample after the set of storage conditions. Where the coarsely ground beef is being purchased or used for uses which require different storage conditions, a data base is set up for each storage condition of interest and then the test sample is evaluated for any of the conditions.
Based on the predicted acceptability over a given shelf life as determined by odor acceptability in step (2), a decision is made whether the beef will have an acceptable shelf life for the intended purpose. The criteria for determining this include a specific set of storage conditions (time and temperature) for purchase, for rapid use (or sale) of stock on hand, regulatory purposes, or for quality control use. The value of lactic acid selected as the upper limit depends upon the purpose of the test as described above or the intended use, e.g., for institutional use, for canning, and the like.
One use of the method of the invention is to predict future acceptability of coarsely ground beef using the method of the invention with a test device which measures lactic acid. This device is used to obtain the initial lactic acid values to set up the data base of step (1) and/or obtain the lactic acid values of test samples according to step (2). In either case, the device contains stabilized lactic dehydrogenase enzyme (D and L), a source of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) to convert lactic acid to pyruvic acid, and a color-producing reagent such as phenylhydrazine to allow measurement of the pyruvic acid in the test device visually or by instruments such as a colorimeter. Lactic acid is converted by the enzyme and NAD into pyruvic acid which reacts with phenylhydrazine to form a colored phenylhydrazone. The lactic acid concentration of the beef is determined from the color intensity developed on the test device. The color intensity of the test sample is compared to a predetermined data base which relates lactic acid concentration determined colorimetrically under the same conditions with future acceptability of the meat as determined by odor acceptability as described above.
The method of the invention is further demonstrated by the following illustrative examples. Theses examples are intended only to further illustrate the invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention which is defined by the claims.
Anaerobic storage. Nine coarsely ground beef samples (12.7 mm diameter die cut) packaged in 9 kg (20 lb), sausage-like, chub packs with relatively low oxygen permeability (40 cc O2 �m-2 �d-1 �atm-1 at 22.8� C.) were used in this study. At the time of procurement samples were stored in the chub packs for less than 1 week. Three samples each of very lean (12-15%), lean (16-19%), and medium fat (26-28%) were examined. On arrival at the laboratory, one-third of each sample was reground using a Hobart food grinder (Kitchen Aid, model K5-A, Hobart Mfg. Co., Troy, OH) with a 4.8 mm hole size plate. Portions of these reground samples were analyzed within 2 hours of procurement for lactic acid concentration, total aerobic bacterial count, number of Gram-positive organisms (used as an indicator of lactic acid-producing bacteria present), and pH. The remaining two-thirds of each coarsely ground sample was resealed in oxygen-impermeable wrap and returned to refrigeration at 7� C. A second and third portion from the chub packs were reground after 1 and 2 weeks of anaerobic storage and the analyses repeated. Prior to regrinding of these samples, small portions of meat suspected of being exposed to oxygen from the previous pack opening were discarded.
Aerobic storage. Reground beef samples from the chub packs not used for the initial analyses were formed into long strips of uniform depth and width (25 mm by 100 mm). These strips of reground beef were wrapped in one layer of 0.5 mil low density polyethylene plastic with a relatively high oxygen permeability (420 cc O2 �m-2 �d-2 �atm-1 at 23� C. for 1.0 mil thickness) and stored at 7� C. After aerobic storage for 1, 3, and 6 days, portions of the reground samples were analyzed for the same parameters described above. In addition, sensory appraisals for odor and appearance were conducted on the lean grade samples.
Aerobic bacterial counts and calculations of the percentage of Gram-positive organisms to total number present were conducted as described by P. S. Nassos et al., Appl. Environ. Microbiol., supra, p. 895. The percentage of Gram-positive organisms in the samples was used as an indicator of the proportion of lactic acid-producing bacteria present.
Approximately 400 grams of ground beef for lactic acid analysis was first mixed by homogenizing for 1 minute in a Cuisinart food processor (model DLC-10) with a metal chopping disk. A beef extract was prepared from 50 grams of the homogenized meat and 0.2 N HCl as follows: A 25-g subsample was added to 215 ml of 0.2 N HCl and 10 ml of an internal standard solution containing 72 mg of glutaric acid. This mixture was homogenized, centrifuged, filtered, and adjusted to pH 10. Ten ml of the filtrate was lyophilized. After lyophilization, the sample was esterified with boron trifluoride (15% [wt/vol]) in propanol (BF3 -propanol) according to the procedure of Salwin and Bond (Journal of the Association of Official Agricultural Chemists 52: 41-47 (1969), except the amounts of BF3 -propanol and saturated (NH4)2 SO4 used in the assay were increased to 10 ml, and CHCl3 was increased to 5 ml.
The resulting propyl derivatives of lactic and glutaric acid were measured with a Hewlett-Packard gas chromatograph (model 5720A) equipped with a flame ionization detector. The glass column was packed with 80/100 mesh Chromosorb W.-H.P. coated with 10% AT-1000 (Altech Associates, Deerfield, IL). Helium flow at the detector was 30 ml/min, and the detector and injector were operated at 300 and 225� C., respectively. The column was programmed from 100 to 180� C. at 8� C./min. So as not to interfere with subsequent analysis, higher-molecular-weight fatty acid esters were removed from the column by programming to 240� C. and holding this temperature for 6 min. The peaks of interest were measured quantatively with a Hewlett-Packard 3390A integrator. Samples were run in triplicate and the results averaged.
The results of the above analyses for the lean grade samples are reported in Table 1.

Lean grade samples described in Example 1 were rated by a 20-member sensory panel for odor and appearance after 1, 3, and 6 days of aerobic storage which followed sample procurement and 0, 1, and 2 weeks of anerobic storage. Sample rating was determined with a standard nine-point hedonic scale (a score of 9, like extremely; a score of 5, neither like nor dislike, a score of 1, dislike extremely). Panel members were also asked to note whether the meat sample was acceptable or unacceptable in both odor and appearance. Results of the two odor acceptability procedures had a correlation coefficient of 0.78. Thus, either method can be used. Each sample was appraised twice within a 6-hour period, within 2 hours after removal from its package. A portion of the meat sample was presented in glass-stoppered 125-ml Erlenmeyer flasks wrapped in tissue to mask appearance. The odor samples were judged in air-conditioned booths under 7.5-W green bulbs. The results for odor acceptability after 6 days of aerobic storage subsequent to 0, 1, and 2 weeks of anaerobic storage are presented in Table 1.
To determine the relationship and prediction equation of acceptability after specified aerobic storage conditions of time and temperature of ground beef as a function of lactic acid concentration of the sample, a graph was made of the initial value of the concentration of lactic acid in the samples obtained in Example 1 and the percent odor acceptability of the samples of lean grade coarsely ground beef after 6 days of aerobic storage at 7� C. described in Example 2. The equation used for the regression curve representing percent odor acceptability on day 6 (Y) versus initial lactic acid concentration following anaerobic storage (X) is as follows: Y=aebX (R2 =0.88 and P<0.01), where Y represents % odor acceptability, X represents lactic acid concentration, a equals 50,709, and b equals -0.014. Correlation of the data is 0.916. The slope=0.252 and the intercept=217. The regression equation was derived from a non-linear regression computer program using Marquardt's procedure. The curve is shown in FIG. 1. The stars represent the data points.
The data base prepared in Example 3 is used to predict the future acceptability of test samples within the limits of the data base as follows. The initial value of lactic acid of the test sample is measured. Percent odor acceptability for the sample after regrinding and aerobic storage conditions of the data base is determined from the graph of FIG. 1 or the regression equation given in Example 3. As stated above, what value of percent odor acceptability to use to determine whether or not the beef is acceptable depends on the intended use of the lot of the meat selected by the testor. For example, purchase specifications, quality control, or regulatory purposes could require different final quality as measured by percent odor acceptability. Once this value is selected, then using the data base, whether or not the test sample meets this requirement is determined from the lactic acid value of the sample by comparison to the data base.
For example, with reference to FIG. 1, if the limit of acceptance is 50% odor acceptability, then a lactic acid value in the test sample of greater than 659 mg/100 g of sample would mean that the sample would be unacceptable. Similarly, a 60% acceptability limit would correspond to 646 mg lactic acid per 100 g of the test sample and 20% acceptability would correspond to 724 mg lactic acid per 100 g of the test sample.
Lactic acid is measured by a device or in solution by a colorimetric test for measurement as follows: stabilized lactate dehydrogenose plus nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide are used to convert lactic acid to pyruvic acid. A color reaction between pyruvic acid and phenylhydrazine is used to visualize the results of the lactic to pyruvic acid conversion and gives a quantitative analysis of the amount of lactic acid in the ground beef sample. Ideally the device is a test strip or stick that is used and compared with a color chart to relate the amount of color developed to concentration of lactic acid in the sample.
It is understood that the foregoing detailed description is given merely by way of illustration and that modifications and variations may be made therein without departing from the spirt and scope of the invention.

A 14-year-old student in Sweden has filed a complaint against a paint company that labeled the color beige as "skin color."
Thyra, whose last name was not reported, said she found the paint sold by Universal Color and Chemicals at school, according to the United Press International.

Here is the footage of Snoop Dogg shooting President Trump in his new music video. Did he cross a line?"By renaming beige to skin color, they show that there is a whiteness norm in society," Thyra told the Aftonbladet newspaper. "It is completely sick that they just rename beige to skin color when black and brown are also that."
Thyra has taken her complaint to the Equality Ombudsman, arguing that the term "skin color" is racist.

Here is the footage of Snoop Dogg shooting President Trump in his new music video. Did he cross a line?Thyra's father said his daughter's complaint against the "racist" label was partly motivated by her sister, but adds that he did not think the manufacturer deliberately named the paints in a racist way.
"Her little sister has brown skin but according to the paint manufacturer she has no skin color. ... I think [the company] just looked at themselves and imagined that's what skin was," he told the newspaper.
The teenager's report to the Equality Ombudsman has resulted in a debate on racism at the school.
Universal Color and Chemicals has not commented on the complaint.
Equality Ombudsman is a Swedish government agency which acts to fight discrimination and promote equal rights. In June, the government ordered the agency to move its headquarters to a suburb in north Stockholm where there is a high concentration of immigrants.

Tottenham's new sporting director, Frank Arnesen, has recommended his Dutch compatriot Martin Jol for the managerial vacancy at White Hart Lane.
Tottenham's new sporting director, Frank Arnesen, has recommended his Dutch compatriot Martin Jol for the managerial vacancy at White Hart Lane.
Arnesen is pushing the claims of the RKC Waalwijk coach as the Spurs chairman, Daniel Levy, waits to find out if the Celtic manager, Martin O'Neill, is willing to take on the challenge. Jol is highly respected in the Netherlands, but ambitious to return to England, where he was a player with West Bromwich and Coventry. Only a few months ago he was interviewed for the No 2 job at Manchester United.
Arnesen, who is moving from PSV Eindhoven, knows Jol well as RKC are based close to his own club. Their defiant performances in the last few years have been put down to Jol's tactical and motivational skills.
Spurs are still hoping that O'Neill, their first choice to replace David Pleat, will leave Celtic after the Scottish Cup final on Saturday. However, there have been false dawns with him before and the Irishman is notoriously elusive.
Arnesen has good contacts in Europe and is capable of reeling off the names of the best up and coming coaches in the business. The fact that he favours Jol is a recommendation in itself, and RKC are anxiously awaiting an official call from Spurs.
Arnesen said yesterday that he was not daunted by the challenge of trying to make a Continental-style management structure work successfully in the Premiership.
"I have been doing a similar role at PSV for 10 years," he said. "I worked with Sir Bobby Robson in a similar structure at PSV. But even when I was a player and then a coach and general manager, I realised you have to work as a team to be successful. Such a structure can work in the Premiership. The challenge will be to make it a success."

Wow, I had a pair of Pivetta 8's that I bought in the mid 70's and wore for about 10 years. God I hated those boots! They were unbelievably stout, and never really did "break in". When I saw the Pivetta name I had a flashback to the ankle and lower shin pains those boots always gave me. YMMV (and I hope it does).
2010 highlights were a New Balance Fugu jacket, a monocular, and an iPhone4 that also does duty as a GPS and e-book reader.

Low interest rates drive succession planning opportunities
Timing can be very important to estate planning. Ironically, this is an update of a column we wrote just after the events of Sept. 11, 2001, which led to an extended time of economic uncertainty. In the months following, the Federal Reserve lowered short-term interest rates to levels not seen in more than 30 years.

"I know," laughs Leeves. "Mini me." Leeves herself, now 43, is tall with glossy chestnut hair. She claims to be dressed up more than normal today, but looks pretty relaxed in a couple of T shirts layered over each other and a pair of khaki trousers.
More than 20 Ohio companies were involved in the construction of Valravn Replica Hermes Birkin, the newest thriller planned by Cedar Point amusement park in Sandusky. Sherrod Brown, D Ohio, visited Valravn to highlight more than 20 Ohio companies were involved in the construction of the new ride. It is just the third dive coaster in the United States and billed as the tallest Hermes Replica Bags, fastest and longest descent coaster in the world..
This means that he does not generate the press ecstasy that some his counterparts do but what he does is cater to his clientele unfailingly season after season. I do dare say that he could make his shows a little more exciting but his derivative of his regal legacy seems to remain ensconced in quietitude. But perhaps he does not care.
Replica Hermes Birkin Bags And in September, when Bouchra Jarrar debuted her spring 2017 Lanvin collection, the focus of the line was boudoir looks, including a particularly striking black and white striped robe worn as a blazer.Further down the fashion food chain, Victoria's Secret is selling "after hours satin pajamas." And J. Crew has a pajama shirt paired with jeans as well as a pajama jumpsuit styled with one of its black Regency blazers and black flats.To be clear Hermes Replica Bags, these are not pajama style garments https://www.perfectbirkin.com, nor trousers that simply borrow the loose fit and drape of sleepwear. Ostensibly, these are pajamas, promoted for both men and women. Replica Hermes Birkin Bags

Replica Hermes "The suits can be really good if it's lawyers and they just won their case. Suits can also be really good if they're lawyers and they just lost their case," says Stilwell. "You need to recommend wine to the ones who won Replica Hermes Bags, and Scotch and bourbon to the ones who just lost.". Replica Hermes
Replica Hermes Birkin You get the idea. But, before you try this at home, Crenshaw adds one note of caution: "Beware of the multiple personality problem, which we all have. Many of us like a lot of looks, but we have to decide which direction to take, and stay on track." In other words, be yourself, because no one else can be Replica Hermes Birkin.

There are no specific provisions under Swedish law regarding defamation of corporate entities. The defamation regulation in the Penal Code only applies to private individuals. However, in certain situations the Marketing Act may be used to stop defamation of a corporate entity. In particular, case law has applied the "General Requirements", which provide that "marketing must be compatible with good marketing practice and also in other respects be fair towards consumers and businessmen", to situations where someone has unnecessarily ridiculed a competitor or, without any basis, tainted a rival's good reputation. The provision on "Misleading Advertising" may be used if the defaming advertisement contains a portrayal that is inaccurate or misleading. Both of these provisions frequently apply to the same advertisement.We now turn to consider the hypothetical situation where Company A has posted an article on its website stating that Company B has been defrauding customers.On the assumption that the article was made without any proper basis and was, in fact, defamatory, we consider:
Thus if, Company A states, on its website, and without any basis, that Company B is defrauding customers, Company B may file a lawsuit at the Swedish Market Court (Marknadsdomstolen) on the grounds either (a) of breach of the general requirements; or (b) that the advertisement is misleading. Company B may request that the Court issue a prohibition and fine Company A. Should Company A later violate this prohibition, Company B may file another lawsuit against Company A and claim compensation for damages caused by the violation to Company B. The fact that one of Company A's directors (Mr A), also defamed Company B does not change Company A's right to sue Company A. However, providing the requirements of the Marketing Act are met, it is also possible to request that the Court issue a prohibition and fine against Mr A personally. This is because, according to the Marketing Act, an employee or another person acting on behalf of the company (or in fact any other person who otherwise has materially contributed to the marketing, such as an advertising agent) may be held responsible in this regard. It is important to note that the Marketing Act only applies to commercial advertising. Messages with no business purpose at all fall outside the scope of the Marketing Act. To libel a company, for example, by posting a message on a website asserting that the company sells harmful, low-quality products, does not fall under the Marketing Act.The only restrictions for non-commercial statements are those set out in the Freedom of the Press Act and the Fundamental Law on Freedom of Expression, which in relation to defamation of corporate bodies are rather limited. In fact, there is commentary which states that the possibility of taking legal action against someone who makes non-commercial, yet defamatory statements about a company, is practically non-existent. On the other hand, if Mr A has also defamed Mr B, a different set of rules will apply. As Mr B is a natural person, the "ordinary defamation provision" in the Penal Code applies. This provision was not primarily intended for use in "commercially-driven" defamation, but in practice the provision has been applied to such cases. As a general rule, Mr B is the only party who could prosecute Mr A for having defamed his good name and reputation. If the Court finds Mr A guilty of this, it may award Mr B compensation for his damages and Mr A could face either a fine or imprisonment. It is a fundamental principle of Swedish law that only natural persons can commit crimes and therefore the Penal Code does not apply to legal entities, such as Company A. Therefore, if Company A defames Mr B it cannot be prosecuted according to the Penal Code.Therefore, while Mr B may seek redress from Mr A for defamation by Mr A, Company B may find it difficult, under Swedish law, to obtain redress for the defamatory statement on Company A's website against either Company A orMr A.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.4 (SM-T700) with a 32 GB µSD with Android 5.0.2.
I place the "garmin directory" in /sdcard, not on the µSD.
Installed SP 2.37pi_sdcard0_signed.
Could configure all.
But after close en trying to locate my "Street Pilot" icon to start Street Pilot, I could not find that anywhere.
What has happened?
Or: How can I start Street?
Works perfects on my Amazon firephone.
Work for Xperia z5 premium..
Thanks !!!
I reinstalled, everything OK.
But now the following:
Sometimes SP (SP2.37pi_sdcard0_signed) works OK, next time black screen or just ends.
Later in the day it works OK again. Next day again not working, later on OK.
What could be the reason for this strange behavior?
Not working on S5 neo (SM-G930F) Lollipop 5.1.1
When start app on Note 5 some time FC screen is occurred and can quick start again from notification bar meanwhile FC screen is showing and then close FC screen when main screen showing. This is just workaround.

17 February 2014
April 3 1969
With regard to EP I, the Roman Canon, he made a legislative statement which he did not make with regard to the other three Prayers. It was that it semper adhiberi potest. This has a very valuable consequence. It means that a priest who resolves that he will use that Prayer invariably cannot be accused of lacking the true mind of the Church, on the grounds that he never uses three other authorised Prayers. It means that when the same text goes on to suggest that Payer II is most suitable on weekdays, this cannot be held to render the use of the Canon Romanus on weekdays to be inappropriate. To use EP I invariably cannot be contrary to the spirit of the new Ordo Missae, because this provision explicitly sanctions such a resolve. Since this Ordo Missae states on its first page that it is ex decreto of the Second Ecumenical Vatican Council, it cannot, unless the Pope was lying, be contrary to the spirit of that Council invariably to use the Canon Romanus.
The Instructio Generalis also remarks that the Canon Romanus is used opportunius on the Sundays and Solemnities of the year; on the festivals of Saints whose names occur in that Prayer; and on days when Proper formulae are provided for the Communicantes or the Hanc igitur.
There are 52 Sundays in the year; and, by my rough estimate, 53 days covered by the other occasions thus listed. So, on between a quarter and a third of the days of the year ... and certainly on Sundays and Days of Obligation ... a strong preference for the use of the Canon Romanus is eminently in accordance with the expressed mind of the Legislator.
But what should become of the alternative Eucharistic Prayers? Are they fit for nothing but the dustbin? I am rather shy of such an attitude ... just as I feel that an earthenware 'chalice' which has been used for the Eucharist should not be rubbish. I am reminded of the suggestion made by Aidan Nichols in Looking at the Liturgy pp 121 sqq.; they are not really Roman; let them be a ritus communis with 'a multiple purpose in view' ... vide his suggestions.

I am perplexed as to what we should do with the other EPs. My guess, and I am really guessing here for I have not checked for references, is that each rite within the Church only has one EP (ok, except the Ordinariate rite which has two, but it is a recent, post-Vatican II dev. not something typical of let's say the 1800s). I don't know why we needed non-Roman EPs in the Roman rite when we have other rites (I'm thinking here of Eastern Catholics).
Why not allow Latin priests to celebrate according to the Ambrosian rite instead of importing elements of this rite in the Roman one? A return to a single, unified Roman canon would be very good pointer to the Church's unity and universality. - 17 February, 2014
- Josephus Muris Saliensis said...
With your excellent points one entirely agrees, and this article is indeed a great encouragement to those many priests who would wish constantly to use the Roman Canon. I do not quite follow Aidan Nichols' suggestion, what is the 'multiple purpose'? The offering of Holy Mass seems to me quite a singular purpose. One hesitates, in this light all that is positive, to nit-pick with your article; nevertheless, while for some reason the document to which you refer is always translated into English as "General Instruction", the Latin title is "Institutio Generalis".

- Figulus said...
I have been told that the Byzantine rite uses two liturgies each of which has its own particular anaphora, the Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom, which is used almost all the time, and the Liturgy of Saint James, which is used rarely. Which liturgy to use is prescribed by tradition and the rubrics; it is not up to the whim of the celebrant. - 17 February, 2014
- Figulus said...
Since the Roman Canon can always be used, it would seem that even today there is no need ("ubi opus sit", says Sacrosanctum Concilium 4) for the others, and so those who routinely replace the Roman Canon with some other EP are not taking Sacroscantum Concilium very seriously. - 17 February, 2014
- William Tighe said...
The Byzantine Liturgy has two anaphoras, that of St. John Chrysostom and that of St. Basil, each one of which is used on various set occasions throughout the year (the latter almost exclusively in Lent), plus that of St. James, which is used, when it is used at all, on only two occasions in the year. The Coptic Liturgy has three anaphoras, each one used on set dates: St. Basil, St. Gregory Nazianzus, and St. Cyril (this last the old primordial anaphora of the "Liturgy of St. Mark," now use donly once a year. The Syriac and Maronite Rites have numerous anaphoras, and the "reformed" Maronite Rite of the 70s uses at least 7 or 8 of them. The Ethiopian Rite has several anaphoras, and the Chaldean/East Syrian Rite has three. Only the Armenian Rite among all the Eastern rites has one only anaphora, and that is a fairly late Medieval development. All of these anaphoras (except, perhaps, for those of the "refromed" Maronite Mass) are used on prescribed and invariable occasions, and not at the "whim of the celebrant."

Best would be to return to the Roman Rite only - one church, one faith, one canon - and to the good custom to keep most of it silent. This also has the positive effect not to disturb individual prayer of the faithful, and does not interfere with parallel singing of the Sanctus. Usually, the usual Gregorian Sanctus (here plural!) end almost at the Hanc igitur, so that you end up with almost the same length like Pseudo-Hippolyt.
- 17 February, 2014
- notionsromaines.com said...
Thank you Figulus and Mr William Tighe. You have both enlightened me on my guess. From what you two have said, there seems to be something in common: the choice of a particuliar anaphora is not at the ''whim of the celebrant'' which the Roman rite clearly lacks. Very interesting; maybe a good point to start the reform.
- 18 February, 2014
- rick allen said...
I agree with you that a priest may legitimately decide to use the Roman Canon exclusively. But why is such a decision any less a "whim of the celebrant" than any priest's decision to use all four authorized canons?
[I deleted the comment two steps up because I was wrong that the additional EP's for particular occasions originated during Benedict's pontificate. Still, I am concerned at the implication of this discussion, that one's personal opinions about the appropriateness of alternative EP's makes them in some way illegitimate, and seems to introduce a new, unneeded source of strife in the Church.] - 18 February, 2014
- Athelstane said...
Those curious about how and why we went so rapidly from the Roman Canon to numerous Eucharistic Prayers may want to read Fr. Cassian Folsom's essay, "From One Eucharistic Prayer to Many: How it Happened and Why" at Adoremus back in 1996":
At first glance, it's easy to be struck by the impression that many of the liturgical reformers of the 60's had severe cases of "Eastern Envy." But what many seem to have been driven (and still are) is an "anything-but-Roman" animus, especially when "Roman" is seen as insufficiently in line with modern, radical theologies. - 18 February, 2014
- Grupo editorial said...
One question if I may, Father.
I understand that you say that 'semper adhiberi potest' means both that the Roman Canon can be used opportune in any occasion and that it can be used opportune in all occasions (i.e. excluding the other EPs).
The wording of the norm would certainly justify the first reading (in any occasion), but does it require the second (in all occasions) to be true? It seems 'semper adhiberi potest' could well be interpreted as just 'in any occasion adhiberi potest'.
Are there any other norms or sources that would also support the second reading? (apart from it being the immemorial tradition of the Roman Rite, I mean).
Thank you.

The allegations against OPP Commissioner Julian Fantino highlight the long-standing tension between the former Toronto police chief and his accuser, a man Mr. Fantino has called a "lightning rod for confrontation and potential violence."
Mr. Fantino and Gary McHale have a history of skirmishes, often centred on police handling of the occupation of a Caledonia housing project.
Mr. McHale, who lives in the GTA and heads a group called Caledonia Wake Up Call, has led rallies denouncing what he calls a "two-tier" justice system that he says discriminates against non-aboriginals.
Mr. McHale's grievances are numerous, and range from being prevented from mounting Canadian flags in Caledonia to allegations of defamation.
At the centre of the current dispute is Mr. Fantino's April 7, 2007 email to Haldimand County's mayor and councillors in which he said the "already chaotic and very turbulent" situation in Caledonia is "made especially difficult every time McHale and his followers come to town."
Mr. McHale retaliated with an April 12, 2007 letter to Mr. Fantino -- which was also sent to the Premier and the Attorney-General -- in which he accused Mr. Fantino of slander, and demanded that the commissioner issue a public apology and resign.
"You are unwilling to talk about the Charter of Rights or Freedom of Speech, but apparently you have the time to use school-yard bully tactics against an average citizen of Canada," Mr. McHale wrote.
Tensions flared again last spring. Mr. McHale faces charges of counselling mischief not committed. Because he is representing himself, he questioned Mr. Fantino on the witness stand. At the preliminary hearing, Mr. Fantino said he would have gladly arrested the "goof" himself. When Mr. McHale asked to whom he was referring, Mr. Fantino said plainly: "You."

Regardless of how many doors the RX-8 has, it is ultimately a sport coupe that offers sensational handling without the stiffness typically associated with cars of this type.
- Low base price, agile handling yet still comfortable enough for daily use, smooth rotary engine fun to wind out on the open road, room for four in a pinch.
- Option packages add considerable expense, iffy interior ergonomics, poor gas mileage.
