Just as in humans, teeth are an important part of the Labrador puppy's anatomy. Not only necessary for eating and digestion, they are also a form of protection and can keep the tongue moist. The condition of a puppy's baby or "deciduous" teeth may indicate the overall health of the puppy. Healthy, well-placed teeth often mean a healthy puppy.
Other People Are Reading
Most veterinarians will check a puppy's teeth every time they examine the puppy. A Labrador puppy will usually develop what is called a "scissors" bite -- the top teeth will closely overlap the bottom teeth. If for some reason the bite is disturbed, the puppy may not be able to chew and digest his food properly. Brown, discoloured teeth may mean that the puppy has had distemper and been treated with antibiotics. Vets will also look for tartar and gingivitis. The early development of these diseases can lead to systemic bacterial infection and even heart disease in the Lab puppy. As the permanent teeth emerge, the vet should also check for retained deciduous teeth -- baby teeth whose roots do not reabsorb and remain in place. These retained teeth can change the conformation of the adolescent Lab mouth and lead to bite disruption and periodontal disease.
Types and Functions
Lab puppies will begin to show their 28 deciduous, or baby, teeth three to four weeks before weaning begins. They have six incisors, two canines and six premolars on both the upper (maxilla) and lower (mandible) jaw. Incisors are found in the middle of the upper and lower jaw and are used for fine gnawing. The canines are the long, pointed teeth on either side of the incisors. They are used for tearing and pulling flesh. The three premolars are behind the canines on all four corners of the mouth and are used for chewing. Labrador puppies will not develop molars until the adult, or permanent, teeth begin to emerge.
The deciduous teeth in a puppy have shorter roots that resorb as the puppy ages and the permanent teeth begin to erupt. A Labrador's incisors and canine teeth are single rooted, and the canine roots are much longer than any others in the mouth. Pre-molars have one to three roots, and the emerging molar teeth will have three roots and be much larger in size.
Time Frame
Puppies are born without teeth, mainly to protect the mother's nipples from nips and bites. Within three to four weeks of birth, the deciduous teeth will start to show. During this time, the Labrador puppy will begin to chew and mouth on his littermates. At about 13 to 16 weeks of age, the mature teeth will begin to erupt, pushing the deciduous teeth out of the mouth. Owners may find these baby teeth on the floor or in dog bedding, but, most often, the puppy simply swallows them. This is no cause for alarm because they easily pass through the digestive system. All 42 adult teeth should be fully erupted by seven to nine months of age.
It is important to remember that, during the teething period, the puppy will chew and mouth on anything they find comfortable to relieve the soreness in their gums. This is particularly true of Labradors, because, as birding dogs, they are bred to have especially sensitive mouths for carrying game without harming the flesh. Vets often recommend that owners provide the growing puppy with a soft, synthetic bone or chew toy to discourage chewing on furniture or shoes. Animal bones are not recommended because beef bones can break the newly emerging adult teeth and chicken or turkey bones will often split apart and send shards into the stomach and intestinal tract.

Although enamel paint is very hard, after a few years of scrubbing your gas stove, the enamel could start to dull and chip. If this happens, you can repaint your gas stove. To avoid injury and ensure a positive result, follow the necessary safety guidelines for painting your stove. Since you need to bake enamel paint, you must have access to an enamel baking oven or an oven large enough to bake your hob at 48.9 degrees Celsius.
- Skill level:
- Moderately Easy

Things you need
- White spirit
- Clean rags
- Zinc chromate primer
- Enamel baking oven
- 800-grit sandpaper
- Enamel thinner

- 1
Turn off the gas lines, extinguish the pilots on the burners and disconnect the gas lines.
- 2
Remove the burners from your hob, then remove the top from your stove. This process will differ, depending on the brand of stove you own. Refer to your owner's manual for the exact steps.
- 3
Clean any dirt and grease off your stove surface with white spirit on a clean rag.
- 4
Spray the surface of your hob with a Zinc chromate primer, then bake the primer according to the curing directions on the bottle. This usually requires 48.9 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes and a curing oven large enough to hold the hob.
- 5
Sand the surface of the primer with 800-grit sandpaper to remove any imperfections.
- 6
Apply a second coat of primer to the hob and cure it using the same temperature and time frame as before.
- 7
Thin the enamel paint using enamel paint thinner. Follow the ratio on the enamel paint container, as every brand of enamel will have its own requirement.
- 8
Apply a coat of enamel paint and cure it for 30 minutes at 48.9 degrees Celsius.

One day I looked at a piece of wood, and the grain reminded me of Lake Michigan; then I looked at the lake, and it reminded me of wood grain. So I began to paint on wood, leaving the grain exposed. The flow of the grain captured the energy of the water. Gradually I realized that I wasn't limited to the lake, that the grain could shape the path of a dancer, and I began to paint dancers on wood. Unfortunately several years later I noticed that wood darkens over time, so my swimmers were swimming at night, if at all, and the spotlight went out on my dancers. I returned to watercolor paper and acrylics.

Circle ,Circle, Dot, Dot.
Happy Wednesday all!!
I am trying very hard to keep up with my daily post, and I know I have skipped a day or two here and there, but hopefully after this week I will be back to the regular schedule. My last week of Fashion class is going really well. Everyone in the class is just amazing,and I can not wait to show you all of their creations.
Today I am wearing a dress that I love, but for the life of me I cannot remember where I bought it from. ( I think it was from Target.) When I wear this dress, I always feel like I am transported back into the 1940's. I guess it is the combination of the circles, the colors, and the shape of the dress.
And the sweater is from the Gap.
Have a beautiful day!

I picked this up after spotting it at Cate Gardener's blog and Aaron Polson's blog. It goes like this:
From the biggest bookcase you have, pick out one book whose author's last name starts with each letter of your last name. If you have no books by an author whose last name starts with a particular letter, go to the next letter. If you have two of the same letter in your last name, get two separate authors, not two books by the same author. Bonus: If you can, pick the first book you haven't read off your shelf, unless you're one of those people who's read all the books you own.
– Post the first sentence of each book, along with the author and title. Feel free to skip prefaces and such, especially if they're by a different writer.
I thought it sounded like a bit of fun, so here goes.
B – Iain M Banks, The Player Of Games
First line: This is the story of a man who went far away for a long time, just to play a game.
This is one of my favourite Culture novels from Banks. I love the story concept and the delivery. And that is a cracker of an opening line. Perhaps it's because I'm something of a gamer myself, but I think anyone would be intrigued by a start like that.
A – Isaac Asimov, Foundation
First line: His name was Gaal Domick and he was just a country boy who had never seen Trantor before.
Thus begins an epic story.
X – Not surprisingly, I don't have any books by authors whose surname begins with an X. I've been trying to think if there are any authors whose surname begins with X. I can't think of any. If you can, leave them in the comments. So, according to the meme rules, I have to move on to the next letter in the alphabet, which is Y.
Chelsea Quinn Yarbro – A Feast In Exile
First line: Along the backs of the bazaar stalls people gathered in knots to exchange the rumors they had heard during the day's buying and selling; it was late on an overcast, sultry afternoon that had been filled with distant thunder , a sign many took as ominous, since it was known that Timur-i and his army were on the move, although no one knew where they would turn next.
Blimey, you could pass out reading that sentence in a single breath. I picked this up second hand after Chelsea had appeared at the Continuum convention last month. I hadn't heard of her work before, then saw this in a second hand book store. I haven't read it yet. Perhaps this counts as the bonus, according to the rules. I have unread books everywhere, so I've no idea what constitutes the first one. I must say, I'm surprised the editors let this first sentence through – it's a behemoth. If that semi-colon was switched for a full stop and the whole thing split in two, I think it would make a far less confronting opening line.
T – J R R Tolkein – The Lord Of The Rings
First line: When Mr. Bilbo Baggins of Bag End announced that he would shortly be celebrating his eleventy-first birthday with a party of special magnificence, there was much talk and excitement in Hobbiton.
Man, reading that again now transports me back to being an impressionable twelve year old, first discovering the joys of fantasy fiction. This book holds a special place in my heart, and I think it always will.
E – David Eddings – The Belgariad
First line: When the world was new, the seven Gods dwelt in harmony, and the races of man were as one people.
It's cool that The Lord Of The Rings and The Belgariad can appear together here like this. These are the first two sets of books that really entrenched in me a love for speculative fiction and set me on the road to becoming a writer.
R – Anne Rice, Interview With The Vampire
First line: "I see," said the vampire thoughtfully, and slowly he walked across the room towards the window.
She has a lot to answer for when it comes to romanticising vampires, but no one can deny Rice's impact on the horror/fantasy genre. And as for those "rules" tragics that talk about avoiding any adverbs in your fiction, check out the two in that first line. The first line of a book that's sold something like seven million copes. Screw you and your writing rules. Write a good story and write it well – it doesn't matter whether you stick close to some arbitrary style guide or not.
Consider yourself tagged and pick up this meme if you like it. Leave a comment with your own effort so we can see what you come up with.

Project Spurs
Last updated 10/8/13
When San Antonio Spurs fans think of Robert Horry's biggest shot, the game winner against the Detroit Pistons in the 2005 NBA Finals may come to mind. You can say the same thing about Los Angeles Lakers fans and how they might think his biggest shot was against the Sacramento Kings in the 2001 playoffs.
However, in Horry's opinion, neither of those big shots are his personal favorite. If he had to pick one, the one clutch shot he choose might trigger the ire of the Silver and Black faithful.
Via GMANetwork.com
Everyone talks about the shot I made against the Sacramento Kings (in the 2001 Western Conference Finals). I like to talk about the shot I made in game one against the [San Antonio] Spurs. They were our nemeses and we could never beat them...and I hit that shot in game one of the Western Conference Finals that meant a lot to me. The Kings weren't really our rivals but San Antonio owned us during the regular season, so that shot meant more than any other shot I made.
Horry is referring to the big shot he made versus the Spurs while he was in Houston. On May 22, 1995, Horry hit a jumper in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals with 6.5 seconds left to defeat the Spurs (see video below at 4:50 point).
While that wasn't one of the highest spots of being a Spurs fan, Horry's reasoning does make a logical reasoning for that shot to be his favorite.
The Spurs won the regular season series versus Houston and he was looking to make a statement. Horry did seem to make it up to Spurs fans with helping the team win two of their four NBA championships.
What do you think Spurs fans? Are you upset at Horry's pick for his favorite big shot or do his contributions to championships for the San Antonio Spurs outweigh his pick?

Ice Cream Scones
Recipe by Pineapple
from the All Recipes site - sounds easy but will it be tasty?
Top Review by katii
I wavered between a 3 and a 4 on these. They were pretty good, and they sure looked pretty. The vanilla ice cream flavour came through a bit, but basically these were a bit too bland. A bit doughy, too, even though I kept them cooking after the recommened time. They rose up very high, and the dough was nice and easy to work with. Thanks for posting, but I'm pretty sure I won't be making these again. *Made and Reviewed for Spring PAC 2009*
See Discussion:
1 ReviewDirections
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Pour the ice cream into a large bowl; fold the flour into the ice cream until the dough just begins to come together. Using your hands, gently knead the dough into a ball, adding flour as necessary to keep the dough from sticking.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll into a 9x13 inch rectangle. Cut the dough into 12 circles, 3 inches in diameter, and place on a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.

This weekend just gone I was at Imbil helping out with the International Rally of Queensland, reporting scores for the car rally there. This was my first look at packet radio in action. Prior to this I had enabled the amateur radio options in the kernels I built, but never tried actually hooking radio to computer. I shall be posting some notes on how I got this working…

I've shut it down for now, but I'll give it a bit more work on 145.175MHz tomorrow. Once I get something working, I might set something up using the O2 or one of the Fulongs (probably the latter) and see about getting soundmodem back into Gentoo.
Update: After hand-editing the ebuild to enable APRS support, I can successfully report that not only is soundmodem working, but so is Xastir on my Yeeloong, as can be seen on aprs.fi.
2 Responses to "Experiments with AX.25"
What about IPv6? 🙁
IPv6 over AX.25 would be good, but remember that it at best runs at 9600 baud. IPv6 requires a MTU of 1280 bytes, which would take a second (1.066 sec to be exact) to transmit on 9600 baud packet.
In this case I was on the 2m band, thus using 1200 baud packet. So it would be slower again… try about 8.533 sec.
I only put in an IPv4 address purely and simply to get the interface up, I was more interested in the raw AX.25 traffic such as APRS. Packet is useful for very short messages, but it's much too slow for IP traffic of any kind IMO.
That said… I do see a future with IPv6, using transverters to move 802.11b/g equipment onto one of the microwave amateur bands (1296MHz, 5GHz or 10GHz for example) to form a high-speed packet backbone which could be used for things like IRLP and EchoLink as well as emergency comms.

Sorry for the rant, but... why does it have to be so dang hard to answer and hang up the phone? Afterall... it is a phone first and everything else second. Here's a typical scenario: The phone vibrates, then it starts to ring. I get it out of my jacket pocket and wait for the screen to wake up, but some how just when it does, I hit the search button and now something is covering the stupid-slider-thing. By the time I get the stupid-slider-thing explosed, the call has gone to voice mail. Or this one... I'm outside. The phone vibrates and rings. I manage to pull it out of my jacket pocket without hitting the wrong button and the stupid-slider-thing is exposed; but now I've got to get my glove off before I lose the call and without hitting the wrong button. (I've found it impossible to answer the phone with anything but a bare digit.) Ditto on hanging up after a call. The screen goes dark, so I've got to get my glove off again, shake the phone, slide the keypad down (if I had to use it), and then hope I don't hit another button before I get a chance to slide to end the call. Grrrrr... sometimes I'm not sure I really hung up. I've seen a couple of apps that replace the stupid-slider-thing with a stupid-onscreen-button (and heard these are glitchy) and also one that lets you "shake" the phone to answer it. Don't know if the shaking is a good alternative to the stupid-slider-thing. I've used a lot of different cell phones and every single one of them had hardware buttons to answer and hang up the phone. This phone really only has one hardware button (besides the power, camera, and volume buttons). QUESTION: Could that button (the "touch pad/ok key") be programmed to use to answer and hang up the phone? I may be a little older than a lot of you, but I'm pretty tech savvy. This just seems to be a silly design. The interface is otherwise intuitive. Love my phone except for this one thing (well, and the battery-sucking). Thanks for listening. Any help will be appreciated and thanked. Victoria on the U.S. Cellular network using a Samsung Acclaim (SCH-R880) Eclair DF10, Firmware 2.1 update 1
I haven't really had that same problem nor do I have a solution for it, but I do have to say that I, myself, have trouble answering my phone calls, as well. I love this phone and the entire Android program, but I really feel like they put so much work into everything else on the phone that they actually forgot to concentrate on the one reason we even buy the thing... the phone part. Ok, so, my problem... Whether I'm playing around with my phone or if my phone has been idle for some time, when I get a phone call, the majority of the time. nothing shows up but the status bar, the caller id nor the slide buttons appear. I honestly end up missing about 75% of the phone calls that I receive. Also, if the person calling calls back immediately after the first phone call, my phone will freeze up completely. Everyone I know gets so frustrated with it and so do I. It's gotten to the point that a lot of people will not even call my phone. I thought maybe it was doing this because I had too much on my phone. So I deleted a few apps and cleaned off my phone. Didn't work. So I got the bright idea one day to completely wipe everything out and start from scratch. Didn't work either. Luckily it works occasionally and making phone calls isn't as troublesome but I would like to know if there happens to be a way to fix this or what could be wrong. Thanks.
I was having this exact same problem until last night. I was just going through my apps and uninstalling a bunch that I don't use. When I got done with that my phone was 10 times faster than I have ever seen it. My GPS didn't work properly before and now it finds me very quickly and is very accurate. I would suggest just going to the market and uninstalling any apps you don't use or just to be safe, uninstall all of them. I was not able to narrow it down to one app that caused the problems so I can't help you any further in that way unfortunately. Hope this helps and good luck!
krusej23, Thanks for posting about this. I hope people see what you have posted and try it. When I first got my phone I loaded it full of apps because I wanted to see what they were all about. Now that I have figured out which apps I actually use I have uninstalled all of the junk apps that didn't work well or I don't use and the difference in performance on the phone is huge. Just wanted to say that because I don't think a lot of people consider this when they have problems with this phone and it is probably the number one cause of their problems in the first place. Granted there are a few legitimate problems(random search) that aren't fixed by this but if you are just noticing the phone is running sluggish deleting all the junk apps is usually all you need to do. Clean up your phone people! It makes a huge difference. Thanks!
Actually, I don't find the "delete your apps" suggestion to be very helpful at all. I don't have a lot of apps. I have a phone that is supposed to be capable of running apps AND being a phone. If I'm on Facebook and someone calls me, I should be able to answer the phone. When a phone call ends, it should bloody well end. If I need to make another phone call immediately, I shouldn't have to wait for the call ended screen to go away and the eternity it takes for the call log to update. I'm paying all this extra money to have these things. They should work.
Well, the Acclaim is a low end phone. I have two of them. I would head over to SDX and do some modifications. Both of mine run very well.
killa K, Like Cwill said the Acclaim is a low end Android phone. You paid much less for that phone than you would have for a higher end Samsung or HTC. That being said I haven't had any issues answering incoming calls. I notice some delay before the answering screen comes up if I am using a very resource intensive app like my DISH remote access app. I don't use facebook so I can't speak to any performance issues while using that app but I use plenty of others and have received calls while using almost all of them and haven't noticed any significant issues. The end of call delay has varied greatly for me since I started using this phone. I found at certain times when I had serious delay at the end of a call I ended up deleting a particular app and this problem went away immediately. I do have a theory on this but I haven't really researched it much. I have noticed certain apps that I have downloaded in the past seem to want access to phone call status(not the official term). I have been wondering if these apps aren't causing the delay in the call log update because they are constantly trying to figure out if you are on the phone or not. I might be way off on this theory but since I have seen varied amount of delay at the end of calls throughout the time I have owned this phone I have to wonder if that might not be a contributing factor. I have also seen vast improvement on this for a sustained period just after shutting the phone down and pulling the battery. As of right now I am noticing a slight delay in the call log update but this isn't more than 2 seconds and I have been able to deal with it. I also haven't shut my phone down or pulled the battery in over two months so maybe I should try that again. If you are still inside of 30 days of owning the Acclaim from US Cell you can take it in and get something a little more powerful if its in the budget. If not then like some of us on this forum you might have to experiment to find what works for you. Good Luck

Agreement on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures
The Agreement on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures, also known as the SPS Agreement, is an international treaty of the World Trade Organization. It was negotiated during the Uruguay Round of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, and entered into force with the establishment of the WTO at the beginning of 1995.[1] Broadly, the sanitary and phytosanitary ('SPS') measures covered by the agreement are those aimed at the protection of human, animal or plant life or health from certain risks.[2]
Under the SPS agreement, the WTO sets constraints on member-states' policies relating to food safety (bacterial contaminants, pesticides, inspection and labelling) as well as animal and plant health (phytosanitation) with respect to imported pests and diseases. There are 3 standards organizations who set standards that WTO members should base their SPS methodologies on. As provided for in Article 3, they are the Codex Alimentarius Commission (Codex), World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) and the Secreatariat of the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC).
The treaty targets 'scientifically unfounded' barriers to trade disguised as health and safety regulations.[3]
The SPS agreement is closely linked to the Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade, which was signed in the same year and has similar goals. The TBT Emerged from the Tokyo Round of WTO negotiations and was negotiated with the aim of ensuring non-discrimination in the adoption and implementation of technical regulations and standards.[4]
History and framework[edit]
As GATT's preliminary focus had been lowering tariffs, the framework that preceded the SPS Agreement was not adequately equipped to deal with the problems of non-tariff barriers (NTBs) to trade and the need for an independent agreement addressing this became critical.[5] The SPS Agreement is an ambitious attempt to deal with NTBs arising from cross-national differences in technical standards without diminishing governments prerogative to implement measures to guard against diseases and pests.[6]
Main provisions[edit]
- Article 1 – General Provisions - Outlines the application of the Agreement.
- Annex A.1 – Definition of SPS measures.
- Article 2 – Basic Rights and Obligations. Article 2.2 - requires measures to be based on sufficient scientific analysis. Article 2.3 - states that Members shall ensure that their sanitary and phytosanitary measures do not arbitrarily or unjustifiably discriminate between Members where identical or similar conditions prevail, including between their own territory and that of other Members. Sanitary and phytosanitary measures shall not be applied in a manner which would constitute a disguised restriction on international trade.
- Article 3 – Harmonization. Article 3.1- To harmonize sanitary and phytosanitary measures on as wide a basis as possible, Members shall base their sanitary or phytosanitary measures on international standards, guidelines or recommendations, where they exist, except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, and in particular in paragraph 3. Article 3.3 – allows Members to implement SPS measures higher than if they were basing them on international standards where there is a scientific justification or the Member determines the measure to be appropriate in accordance with 5.1-5.8.
- Annex A.3 – outlines the standard-setting bodies.
- Article 5 – Risk Assessment and Determination of the Appropriate Level of SPS Protection. Article 5.1 - Members shall ensure that their sanitary or phytosanitary measures are based on an assessment, as appropriate to the circumstances, of the risks to human, animal or plant life or health, taking into account risk assessment techniques developed by the relevant international organizations.
- Annex A.4 – outlines risk assessment process.
- Article 5.5 - each Member shall avoid arbitrary or unjustifiable distinctions in the levels it considers to be appropriate in different situations, if such distinctions result in discrimination or a disguised restriction on international trade. Article 5.7– echoes the 'Precautionary Principle' where there is no science available with which to justify a measure.[7]
Some of the most important WTO 'cases' regarding the implementation of SPS measures include:
- EC – Hormones (Beef Hormone Dispute) (1998)[8]
- Japan – Agricultural Products (1999)[9]
- Australia – Salmon (1999)[10]
- Japan – Apples (2003)[11]
Genetically modified organisms[edit]
In 2003, the United States challenged a number of EU laws restricting the importation of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) in a dispute known as EC-Biotech,[12] arguing they are "unjustifiable" and illegal under SPS agreement. In May 2006, the WTO's dispute resolution panel issued a complex ruling which took issue with some aspects of the EU's regulation of GMOs, but dismissed many of the claims made by the USA. A summary of the decision can be found here.
Hormone-treated beef[edit]
Another prominent SPS case is the hormone-treated beef case. In 1996, the United States and Canada challenged before the WTO Dispute Settlement Body (DSB) a number of EU directives prohibiting the importation and sale of meat and meat products treated with certain growth hormones. The complainants alleged that the EU directives violated, among other things, several provisions of the SPS Agreement. The EU contended that the presence of the banned hormones in food may present a risk to consumers' health and that, as a consequence, the directives were justified under several WTO provisions authorizing the adoption of trade-restrictive measures that are necessary to protect human health. In 1997 and 1998, the WTO adjudicating bodies admitted USA and Canada claims and invited the EU to bring the directives into conformity with WTO law before end of May 1999. EU did not comply and the DSB authorized the USA and Canada to take countermeasures against the EU. The countermeasures took the form of increased custom duties applied by the USA and Canada on certain EU products, including the notorious Roquefort cheese. In 2004, while the ban on hormone-treated meat was still in place, the EU initiated before the DSB new proceedings seeking the lifting of the countermeasures applied by the USA and Canada. EU alleged that it had collected new scientific data evidencing that the banned hormones may cause harm to consumers. According to the EU, the new scientific data provides sufficient ground for the ban on hormones, which may no more be sanctioned by the countermeasures imposed by the USA and Canada. As of January 2007, the proceedings initiated by the EU were still pending.
Interaction with other World Trade Organization instruments[edit]
While Article 1.5 of the TBT precludes the inclusion of SPS measures from its ambit, in EC-Biotech, the panel recognised that situations could arise where a measure is only partly an SPS measure, and in those cases, the SPS part of the measure will be considered under the SPS Agreement.[13] If a measure conforms with SPS, under Article 2.4 of the SPS Agreement, it is assumed that the measure falls within the scope of GATT, Article XX(b).
Economic considerations. Trade in the products subject to SPS-type measures have the potential to result in significant economic gains for national economies.[14] Favouring economic concerns over other important public health policy issues, however, is something that requires close scrutiny by governments and the international community.[15]
The SPS Agreement reflects the precautionary principle – a principle which allows them to act on the side of caution if there is no scientific certainty about potential threats to human health and the environment. Under Article 5.7 Members who enact provisional measures are obligated to seek further information on possible risks and review the measure 'within a reasonable period of time'. The Appellate Body in Japan– Measures Affecting Agricultural Products, stated that the length of a 'reasonable period of time' is to be assessed on a case-by-case basis.[16] Under SPS rules, the burden of proof is on the complainant country to demonstrate that a measure violates Article 2.2 and Articles 5.1-5.8 before it can be regulated[17] even though scientific evidence can never be conclusive and it is not possible to test for all health risks that could arise from importation of a certain product.[18]
Impact on Developing Countries. It is important that the views of developing countries are incorporated into the standard-setting process as the effect of exporting countries enacting SPS measures can be damaging to developing economies. This is partly due to these states not possessing the technology and resources needed to readily comply with certain SPS requirements.[19]
Impact of Consumer Pressure on adherence to the SPS Agreement. Some commentators pose that the WTO's assumption that trade liberalisation enhances consumer welfare, has resulted in the SPS Agreement being ill-equipped to deal with trade restrictions put in place by governments responding to protectionist pressure from consumers.[20] This was most noticeable in the Beef Hormones Dispute where, although the science pointed to the relative safety of the growth hormones in question, European consumers pressured governments to ban the import of hormone-treated beef.[21]

I really wanted to continue the conversation, but I didn't try to force it. I don't feel like I was awkwardly interjecting, but maybe I was. People don't want to disagree with co-workers. I understand that. But I'm still frustrated.

A very nice example of the popular Griffiths design that opened up yachting to a much wider market. Iroko planking on Canadian rock elm timbers, teak deck and doghouse. She had a complete boatyard refit in 2002/03 including a new Yanmar engine, new standing and running rigging 2005, and has been well maintained in present ownership.

A brief visit - latest bridled tern news.
No sign today of the bridled tern on the May today despite an early start to check for it. It was last seen yesterday evening shortly before 10pm so we think it maybe roosted on the island. An absolutely glorious day today brought full visitor boats over with some people hoping to catch a glimpse of this big beautiful tern but to no avail. At the moment we haven't heard where it might have headed off to but we will keep scanning the tern roost for the next few days as it does seem to come and go a bit.

I made an enquiry to the UKCoRR mailing list asking whether anyway was using a CRIS in the UK. The replies were interesting, with a lot of interest in Symplectic. Only one reply from the list used InfoEd. The other options I asked about included PURE from Denmark, and the ProQuest Research Support Suite, which is a bit of a red herring, I don't think it really performs entirely the work of a CRIS, especially when looking internally at an institution.
It's quite obvious that in the lead up to the REF there's a lot of naval gazing going on in terms of how universities are managing their research information. There are discussions over buildiing in-house systems, versus buying in a solution. I do think it's a niche market here in the UK that Symplectic have jumped into. We're in the process of considering how to go about this – a few things spring to mind for anything that eventually fills the gap:
Must be able to import our existing information from a legacy system
Should be able to integrate with various university systems (not the least being the repository)
Must be based on CERIF standards (I need to read up more on this).
Any comments on experiences with using a CRIS most useful. I wonder how they do this in Australia and elsewhere abroad..
Current Research Information Systems

Interesting article. The interest in CRIS systems is obviously gaining priority among many UK HEIs. During the latest months we have been contacted by a hand full of UK universities looking for suitable systems to support them primarily for the REF. However, we have obviously not made enough marketing in the UK as our system, CONVERIS, is not mentioned in the article. 😉
CONVERIS is a standard and CERIF compliant end-to-end Research Information System. It is primarily used for publication management & bibliometrics, contract administration & grant reporting, and as a complete CRIS for the management also of many other types of research information. As the REF obviously is an important driver for many UK universities, we are also closely following what HEFCE is doing and offer a guarantee that CONVERIS will comply with the (still partly unknown) requirements for the REF.
As a direct comment to how "this is done abroad", it could be of interest to have a look at Sweden, where we currently implement a national Research Information System. This is a step beyond the institutional level with the purpose to make the collection and data quality assurance more efficient through collaborative means. If it would be of interest to find out more, just post a comment and I can add some further details (if Kara permits).
