Biographical Sketch
( Originally Published 1912 )
Dr. David Roberts has for years occupied a conspicuous place among the veterinarians of the United States. Gov. Davidson appointed him State Veterinarian of Wisconsin in 1906, in which office he succeeded his brother, Dr. Evan D. Roberts, of Janesville, Wis., who had held the office for six years. Dr. David Roberts ably filled this position until November 1, 1908, when he resigned in order to conduct an educational campaign against the two dread diseases in cattle—tuberculosis and abortion. This campaign was not confined to Wisconsin, but was extended to Iowa, Illinois, *Pennsylvania, New York, and other states, and as a result infectious diseases have been stamped out from among many valuable herds in all parts of the country.
For generations back the Roberts family has been interested in the breeding and treating of live stock. Twenty-five years before any veterinary college had been established in America, J. P. Roberts, the grandfather of Dr. David Roberts, was engaged in treating horses and cattle. His father, John M. Roberts, was a well-known stock raiser and farrier, his service being in demand even at the present time, owing to his experience and good judgment.
It will thus be seen that Dr. David Roberts was, in a measure, born in this profession.
During the early part of Dr. Roberts' life he attended the district school, and later entered Beloit College. Returning from Beloit he successfully managed his father's stock farm with its extensive milk interests and a side line of draft horses, hogs and sheep. His great love of stock, and the success which attended his every effort with them, persuaded him to enter the Chicago Veterinary College in order to fit himself for the profession for which he was naturally gifted.
In 1889 Dr. David Roberts was graduated from the Chicago Veterinary College, and his desire of becoming a cattle specialist induced him to leave the larger cities and locate in the beautiful city of Waukesha, which is in the very heart of the large dairy industry of this great state, where he has since 1889 enjoyed a large practice. While he has devoted his time to the general practice of the Veterinary Science, still it must be understood that he is eminently a CATTLE SPECIALIST, and as such is far more competent to handle and treat the complicated diseases of cattle than one who has not paid particular attention to this line of work. On account of the magnitude of the cattle industry in this country, the Doctor places this branch of the practice ahead of all others, and it is with pardonable pride that we refer to his magnificent success in this field.
In the discovery of the Anti-Abortion Treatment, Dr. Roberts has rendered a service of the highest importance to the cattle industry of the world. It is a matter of great interest to owners and breeders of live stock, that this Treatment, along with numerous other scientific prescriptions that he has employed with such remarkable success in his extensive practice, have been placed on the market in such form as to be readily available.
The Doctor has built up the largest cattle practice in the country, and is pre-pared to visit any part of the United States on important cases, details of such trips to be arranged with him by correspondence.
No one is in a better position than the veterinarian to realize the extensive loss resulting to live stock owners throughout the country from Contagious Abortion in cattle, and the great peed of a reliable treatment for this destructive disease.
That contagious diseases are caused by germs is admitted by nearly all persons who are at all conversant with what has been done in the world of veterinary science during the last few years.
Contagious Abortion, Calf Cholera, Tuberculosis and several other diseases of infectious forms are known to be caused by the presence of germs, which differ in form, size, mode of growth and microscopic appearance.
By means of these germs we can transmit these diseases from one animal to another, and by taking a small quantity of liquid from a cow afflicted with Contagious Abortion, and injecting it under the skin of a pregnant guinea pig, it will cause her to abort, and if other pregnant guinea pigs be in the same pen they will also abort.
I merely mention this experiment to show the infectious nature of germs of abortion, which produce this disease in cattle.
In the light of such proof, and in accordance with the acknowledgment of the scientific world, the only proper way to control and combat abortion is by the proper administration of an Anti-Abortion Treatment, such as I have perfected.
After many years of careful study and numerous experiments with this treatment, I have been enabled to control and eradicate this disease.
I know that the use of Anti-Abortion treatment in preventing and over-coming infectious diseases in stock is the correct method. In view of this, I shall exert strenuous efforts to remain in the front rank of scientific and practicable development in this work.
As yet I confine the output of this treatment to Contagious Abortion in cattle only, and do not advise its use on other stock until proved beyond all doubt that it is absolutely reliable in their cases as it is in cattle.
Its wonderful effects can best be seen by injecting it under the skin of a cow which is showing every sign of an approaching abortion (such as swelling of the udder and vulva) then watch these symptoms disappear and the cow carry her calf full time. You will then become an eye witness of what power of control the Treatment has over the germs that produce the symptoms, and if not disturbed, produce abortion in such a case.
In my complete treatise on page 35, I have endeavored to present the facts in such a light that every one who reads it may get a comprehensive idea of what is meant by the treatment of Infectious Abortion in cattle.
I have purposely avoided technicalities as much as possible, choosing rather to present scientific facts in a clear and intelligible manner.
I believe that when veterinarians familiarize themselves with the treatment, and the results which they can obtain by the use of the same, that they will in time become constant users of this, the most scientific and professional method of handling this dreaded disease which is costing their clients many hundreds of dollars yearly.
The newest and most improved methods are used in preparing the Anti-Abortion Treatment. Before being shipped, it is carefully examined, in order to establish its correctness in every particular.
Yours very truly,

Pet Name: Candi_Cindle_Cybunny,
Serene_Sal_Shoyru, and
About Candi_Cindle_Cybunny, Luke_Lee_Lupe, Serene_Sal_Shoyru, & Seth_Sawyer_Shoyru: No two Neopets are exactly the same, and I don't mean in looks, but personality. My four have distinct personalities all their own.
I've had Luke_Lee_Lupe and Seth_Sawyer_Shoyru the longest. Luke, I admit, was chosen as a replacement for a beloved pet that I lost, Skidd_the_Lupe. He was stolen (hacked) from me, and put into adoption, but I believe he has a good new home.
I wouldn't give up my Luke for anything. He is smart and brave and loyal, and he is always there for me if I am down. He can be very stubborn at times, mostly when it comes to food; he's a picky eater. He also loves to read about other Lupe, but try to get him to read about anything else, he'll mutter about it, but do it anyway. Someday I hope to get my hands on a 'Fire, Fire, Pants on Fire, PaintBrush' and paint him, just like Skidd was.
I try to get all of my pets to read the whole set of the Encyclopedia Neopia, but so far only Seth has done this. Seth loves reading anything and everything, from reference books like the 'Encyclopedia Neopia', to stories like 'The Great Chomby', to how-to books like 'Raising Young Kau'.
Then I got Serene_Sal_Shoyru, a real sweetie. Seth took to her quickly and they are often seen flying around together playing a game. Serene is kind of possessive of me; she likes to say near me as much as possible. At night, she sometimes sneaks out of her room in our NeoHome and curls up at the foot of my bed. If I wake up and find her, I always pull her up and put her under the covers beside me. She enjoys reading about gardening, loves stories, and is trying to finish all of the 'Caring' Volumes.
Candi_Cindle_Cybunny is the last member of our family. I was so happy to get her, since I had always wanted a Cybunny. Candi has a thing with Faeries. She reads all she can find about them, and loves to take trips to Faerieland. She also enjoys books about her species.
On a trip to Tyrannia, we stopped by Tyrannian Pet Pets. Both Seth and Serene went for the Airax, while Luke went for a cute little Gruslen. They begged until finally I said ok and we bought them. Serene named her Airax, Arial, and Seth named his Aaron. Luke couldn't decide a name for the longest time, but then he looked at a rock and said, "Geo", so his Gruslen was named Geo. Candi didn't find a petpet she liked, I told her since everyone else got one, I would take her to some of the other petpet shops around Neopia, and we would look for one for her.
We went home and I sat in my favorite chair, Luke was curled up with Geo on a pillow on the floor next to it. Seth was reading in a chair across the room, Aaron perched on the back of the chair, and Serene was out in the yard with Arial and Candi. This was my family, and I love each and every one of them.

In 1891, the Ijebu tribe, dwelling between 50 and 60 miles north-east of Lagos on the Magbon river, set a blockade on the trade route from the interior into Lagos, which was a crown colony, and charged customs dues which served as their income.
The Awujale, the traditional ruler of Ijebu, closed down the Ejirin market, cutting off Lagos from a source of up-country trade.
The British government persuaded the Awujale several times to open the blockaded route but the Ijebu ruler remained adamant. However, in May 1891, a British acting governor, Captain C.M Denton C.M.G, together with some Hausa troops (mostly slaves who fled the North to South and were recruited by the British army) went to Ijebu kingdom to make an agreement with the Awujale on opening the blockaded route and allowing the free passage of goods into Lagos. The Awujale refused but after much persuasion and pressure, the Awujale agreed in January 1892 on the terms of receiving £500 annually as compensation for the loss of custom revenue.
However, the agreement didn't last long. A white missionary was denied access to pass through the kingdom and was sent back. The British government were provoked by the action of the Ijebus and authorized the use of force on the kingdom. Britain gathered troops from Gold Coast (Ghana), Sierra Leone, Ibadan, and Lagos (the Hausa troops nearly 150).
Battle of imagbon
Colonel F.C. Scott C.B was the commander of the troops of 450 men piled up by Britain. On the 12th of May, 1892, the captain and his men, including some carriers, sailed up the Lagos Lagoon and landed at Ekpe.
When they got to Leckie, another carriers about 186 in numbers were recruited.
On the Ijebu side, 8000 men with old rifles would be fighting the British. The British underestimated the fighting prowess of the Ijebus thus giving them some hard times in penetrating into the interiors of Ijebu kingdom. The first day, the British army razed down four villages with some of their men sustaining fatal injuries. The next day, they proceeded to Atumba and gunned down the Ijebus with machine guns. Britain lost 12 men which include a Briton and 12 Africans. Every Ijebu villages they came across was burnt to the ground. The Ijebus were really losing the battle but determined to prevent the British army from crossing the Yemoyi river. The goddess of the Yemoyi river was said to have taken human sacrifice in order to prevent the intruders (British) from crossing. The river was dug deeper by the Ijebus to make it impenetrable by all means for the British army. However, the British army managed to cross the sacred Yemoyi river and unleashed havoc on the Ijebus. They proceeded to the village of Imagbon.
The Ijebus had lost over 900 men while Britain lost only 56 men and have more than 30 wounded. The Ijebus were still determined to fight on but shortly afterwards, the Awujale surrendered and admitted losing the war.
The British union flag was later raised above Ijebu Ode.
Captain Scot warned his men against pillaging which some didn't heed to especially the Ibadan irregulars who were later deprived of their arms. The toll gates in Oru built by the Ijebus were destroyed and some of their shrines were also torched.
This bloody war is also known in history as the 1892 Ijebu Expedition.
The British troops were awarded The East & West Africa Medal with Clasp dated '1892'.
Today, one of these medals can be found in Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge. Ijebu kingdom was later annexed to the colony of southern Nigeria.

Brand name: Glucophage
Metformin (brand name Glucophage) is a biguanide anti-diabetic that works by decreasing the amount of sugar that the liver produces and the intestines absorb. Metformin is used for treating type 2 diabetes. It is used along with diet and exercise. It may be used alone or with other anti-diabetic medicines. With this type of diabetes, insulin produced by the pancreas is not able to get sugar into the cells of the body where it can work properly.
Metformin 500mg / Metformin 850mg
*- SR -Sustained-release. The advantages of sustained-release tablets or capsules are that they can often be taken less frequently than instant-release formulations of the same drug, and that they keep steadier levels of the drug in the bloodstream. Sustained-release tablets are formulated so that the active ingredient is embedded in a matrix of insoluble substance (various: some acrylics, even chitin, these are often patented) so that the dissolving drug has to find its way out through the holes in the matrix. In some SR formulations the matrix physically swells up to form a gel, so that the drug has first to dissolve in matrix, then exit through the outer surface.
What are metformin tablets?
METFORMIN (Glucophage®) is a medicine used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus. Treatment is combined with a balanced diet and exercise. This medicine lowers blood sugar and helps your body to use insulin more efficiently. It is sometimes used with other medicines for diabetes. Generic metformin tablets are available.
What should I tell my health care provider before I take this medicine?
They need to know if you have any of these conditions:
frequently drink alcohol or alcohol-containing beverages
become easily dehydrated
heart attack
heart failure that is treated with medications
hormone changes or problems
kidney disease
liver disease
polycystic ovaries
serious infection or injury
thyroid disease
undergoing surgery or certain x-ray procedures with injectable contrast agents
an unusual or allergic reaction to metformin, other medicines, foods, dyes, or preservatives
pregnant or trying to get pregnant
How should I take this medicine?
Take metformin tablets by mouth, with meals. Follow the directions on the prescription label. Swallow the tablets with a drink of water. Take your doses at regular intervals. Do not take your medicine more often than directed.
What if I miss a dose?
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you can. If it is almost time for your next dose, take only that dose. Do not take double or extra doses.
What drug(s) may interact with metformin?
water pills (diuretics like amiloride, furosemide, triamterene)
Many medications may cause changes (increase or decrease) in blood sugar, these include:
alcohol containing beverages
aspirin and aspirin-like drugs
beta-blockers, often used for high blood pressure or heart problems (examples include atenolol, metoprolol, propranolol)
female hormones, such as estrogens, progestins, or contraceptive pills
male hormones or anabolic steroids
medications for weight loss
medicines for allergies, asthma, cold, or cough
some herbal dietary supplements
steroid medicines such as prednisone or cortisone
thyroid hormones
water pills (diuretics)
Tell your prescriber or health care professional about all other medicines you are taking, including non-prescription medicines, nutritional supplements, or herbal products. Also tell your prescriber or health care professional if you are a frequent user of drinks with caffeine or alcohol, if you smoke, or if you use illegal drugs. These may affect the way your medicine works. Check with your health care professional before stopping or starting any of your medicines.
What side effects may I notice from taking metformin?
Side effects that you should report to your prescriber or health care professional as soon as possible:
breathing difficulties or shortness of breath
muscle aches or pains
passing out or fainting
severe vomiting or diarrhea
slow or irregular heartbeat
unusual stomach pain or discomfort
unusual weakness, fatigue or discomfort
In combination with other diabetic medications, (like acarbose, glyburide, glipizide, miglitol, or insulin), metformin may cause low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Contact your health care professional if you experience symptoms of low blood sugar, which may include:
anxiety or nervousness, confusion, difficulty concentrating, hunger, pale skin, nausea, fatigue, sweating, headache, palpitations, numbness of the mouth, tingling in the fingers, tremors, muscle weakness, blurred vision, cold sensations, uncontrolled yawning, irritability, rapid heartbeat, shallow breathing, and loss of consciousness
Symptoms of high blood sugar (hyperglycemia) include:
dizziness, dry mouth, flushed dry-skin, fruit-like breath odor, loss of appetite, nausea, stomach ache, unusual thirst, frequent passing of urine
Side effects that usually do not require medical attention (report to your prescriber or health care professional if they continue or are bothersome):
decreased appetite
metallic taste in the mouth
mild stomachache
weight loss
What should I watch for while taking metformin?
Visit your prescriber or health care professional for regular checks on your progress. Your prescriber will check your blood sugar, kidney function, and other tests from time to time.
Learn how to monitor your blood sugar. Learn what to do if you have high or low blood sugar. Do not skip meals. If you are exercising much more than usual you may need extra snacks to avoid side effects caused by low blood sugar. Do not change your medication dose without talking to your prescriber.
If you have mild symptoms of low blood sugar, eat or drink something containing sugar at once and contact your health care professional. It is wise to check your blood sugar to confirm that it is low. It is important to recognize your own symptoms of low blood sugar so that you can treat them quickly. Make sure family members know that you can choke if you eat or drink when you develop serious symptoms of low blood sugar, such as seizures or unconsciousness. They must get medical help at once.
If you develop a severe diarrhea or vomiting, or are unable to maintain proper fluid intake, you should contact your prescriber. "Sick-days" may require adjustments to your dosage or your illness may need to be evaluated. Ask your prescriber what you should do if you become ill.
If you are going to have surgery or will need an x-ray procedure that uses contrast agents, tell your prescriber or health care professional that you are taking this medicine.
Wear a medical identification bracelet or chain to say you have diabetes, and carry a card that lists all your medications.
Where can I keep my medicine?
Keep out of the reach of children in a container that small children cannot open.
Store at room temperature between 15 and 30 degrees C (59 and 86 degrees F). Protect from moisture and light. Throw away any unused medicine after the expiration date.
Frequently asked questions:
What is a generic medication?
Wikipedia gives the following definition: "Generic drug (pl. generic drugs, short: generics) is a drug which is produced and distributed without a brand name. A generic must contain the same active ingredients as the original formulation. In most cases, it is considered bioequivalent to the brand name counterpart with respect to pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties. By extension, therefore, generics are assumed to be identical in dose, strength, route of administration, safety, efficacy, and intended use. Mind that the pills you will receive from us differ in appearance from the brand name ones. The looks of medications as well as brand names are the intellectual property of the brand manufacturer. Thus to avoid any accusation of copyright infringement we have to change the shape and the color of the generic pills as well as use the name of the active ingredient (generic name) instead of the brand name for printing on pills. Please be aware that the generic pills differ in appearance from the brand name medications. Our pills are round shaped and blister packed (10 pills per each blister). The name of the active ingredient as well as the weight are specified on the pill itself.
Why are generic pills cheaper than the brand name ones?
The principal reason for the reduced price of generic medicines is that the creation of the generic drug runs up less cost and therefore a lower price can be offered and still maintain profitability.
Manufacturers of generic drugs are mainly able to avoid the following three costs that brand name pharmaceutical companies incur: (1) costs associated with the research and development of the drug; (2) costs associated obtaining regulatory approval (i.e. proving safety and efficacy of a drug); and (3) marketing costs.
First, Generic manufacturers do not incur the cost of drug discovery and instead reverse-engineer existing brand name drugs to allow them to manufacture bioequivalent versions.
Second, generic manufacturers do not bear the burden of proving the safety and efficacy of the drugs through clinical trials - rather, generic manufacturers must prove the generic drug's bioequivalancy to the existing drug.
Third, these companies receive the large benefit of the marketing and advertising that goes into pushing the innovator drug. The brand name drug has to prove itself in the eyes of the consumer, generic ones do not. The drugs that generic manufacturers are selling have been on the market for usually a decade or more and do not need additional advertising. For the same reason, generic manufacturers also do not give away sample doses to promote their products. The significant research, development and marketing costs incurred by the large pharmaceutical companies in introducing a new drug to the market is often cited as the reason for the high cost of new agents - they wish to recover these costs before the patent expires. Generic manufacturers do not incur these costs, with bioequivalence testing and manufacturing costing relatively little, and are able to charge significantly less than the brand.

Do you require a prescription?
However we would strongly recommend you to consult your doctor before taking a medication. You may have some diseases contra-indicated for taking certain kinds of medicines and your doctor will advise you what you can or cannot take.
Do you guarantee the quality of pills?
High quality of the medications we offer is the subject of our primary concern. The logic is very simple: the better the quality of goods is, the more customers we have. Thus we are very attentive and selective in the choice of the supplier, the quality of goods is thoroughly tested and the documentation is closely checked.
How do you ship orders? Will I have to sign for the package?
If sent by the standard unregistered mail the order will come in a plain envelope without any reference to content. The envelope will be left in your mail box. There is no need to sign for it. If sent by a courier, the recipient needs to sign for the package. All orders are shipped in discreet packaging. There is no mention on the outside of the package as to what is contained inside. Furthermore, your name or any other personal information will never be given or sold to any other company. Your privacy is our utmost concern.
Will my order be delivered in one package or you will divide it in case the order is large?
If an order includes 90 pills (or more) or if there are different types of medications in one order we will have to send the pills separately. Thus the delivery will take longer than 3 weeks since the packages are sent with the interval of approximately 7 days one by one. This is done to secure the delivery.
All the information you provide is confidential and is not given to any third parties.
On our site, you fill in a form to order your medications. Your personal information inserted is used for the delivery of goods and for and orders confirmation message. This information is also used to contact the customer if needed. The information is not used for any spam or promotional messages etc.
Our stuff does not have any access to the customers' credit card information. Customer support operators can see only the last four digits of your credit card in the database.
All the data from the "checkout page" is directly transferred to the secure server of the payment system.
Payments security is ensured by encrypting your personal information during its transfer from the customer to the bank for the processing. We use 128 bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software to encrypt the information you input.

OTTAWA, OTTAWA--(Marketwired - March 31, 2014) - The Honourable Steven Blaney, Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness, today issued the following statement to mark the conclusion of Fraud Prevention Month:
"Over the course of Fraud Prevention Month, Canadians were encouraged to take important simple steps to protect themselves against fraud.
With the wide range of scams out there today, anyone can fall victim to cyber fraud, regardless of age, device, or technical knowledge. Awareness and knowledge are the keys to empowering Canadians against these types of crimes.
That is why the GetCyberSafe campaign made a significant effort to remind Canadians about locking their mobile phones during Fraud Prevention Month. We asked you to think about everything you enjoy doing on your phones - like shopping and banking - and how important it is to keep that information secure. Locking your phone is a simple and important step to protecting yourself and preventing information from getting into the wrong hands.
I encourage all Canadians to learn more by visiting GetCyberSafe.ca, the Competition Bureau, the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre, and the RCMP. These excellent resources can provide you with the tips you need in order to recognize, report, and stop fraud throughout the year."

A jet trainer has crashed near RAF Valley on the island of Anglesey, North Wales Fire Service said today.
The pilot managed to eject as the Hawk trainer jet crashed near the perimeter fence of the RAF base, said a spokeswoman.
A spokesman for the Ministry of Defence said: "There has been an incident with an RAF jet during landing at RAF Valley.
"The pilot ejected. We do not know any further details at this stage. We are still awaiting further information."
Local resident David Gould told BBC Radio Wales: "I was in a lambing shed and there were two bangs. One was like a gas cylinder going off which might have been the pilot ejecting and then there was another big bang which must have been the plane dropping down.
"My friend said to me that that was not a normal bang and we walked out of the shed and could see all the flames and flumes of smoke.
"About three minutes later the emergency services were around.
"We are about a mile-and-a-half from it. It was very close to a property to the left-hand side of the crash."
A North Wales Police spokesman said that a Valley-based Hawk aircraft appeared to have crashed to the perimeter of the Isle of Anglesey airfield.
"The pilot ejected safely and was picked up and taken to Ysbyty Gwynedd, the hospital in Bangor, with back injuries," he added.
A Ministry of Defence spokesman said there would be a formal investigation to determine the cause of the crash, although early reports suggested a bird-strike might have been responsible.

The Baton Rouge Police Department confirmed Monday that two Baton Rouge police officers were stabbed and one civilian was shot and killed by police on Monday afternoon in Mid-City.
Officers were responding to a dispute between two people at 129 North 24th Street just after 1 p.m. A male suspect attacked officers with a knife and officers fatally shot him, police said.
The officers were transported to a local hospital and their injuries are not expected to be life-threatening.
The police department has not yet disclosed the identity of the person who was shot, and did not say whether he was an adult or a juvenile.
Bystanders at the scene said they didn't see what happened but heard gunshots. One man, who didn't want to be identified, said he heard three shots.
As of about 2:30 p.m. Monday, officials were placing yellow evidence markers on the grass in front of a small blue house on North 24th Street.

In the vast Mumbai metropolis, hybrid images flash by as if they were free jazz. Two protagonists, whose lives interconnect, serve as our guides: the eccentric singer Suman who recounts the plight of Indian women through punk rock, slam poetry and jazz; and the transman Khush, a rickshaw driver who dreams of transforming his female body into a muscular Bollywood-style one. The search for identity, happiness and love, Natasha Mendonca's contemporary portrait of male-female relationships and alternative lifestyles in India is unique, strange, original and particularly provocative. A real discovery!

Geoline, which provides e-mail services, Web page design and consulting for e-commerce clients, will focus on negotiating contracts with businesses of all sizes interested in selling their goods and services in Todito's virtual store channel.
According to the contract, all Geoline clients will move to Todito.com as well as personnel and Internet corporate clients.
Todito currently has 16 stores in its site and on average registers 15 purchases daily.
In order to boost e-commerce transactions, beginning Nov. 27 the com-pany will offer users the option of making payments via bank deposits rather than using their credit cards.
"People are afraid of making purchases over the net," says Adrian Gonzalez, Todito VP-content, adding that many believe their credit cardnumbers will be accessed for fraudulent use.
The company also expects e-commerce transactions to increase as the Christmas season approaches.
Mr. Gonzalez says Todito plans to add an action channel to its site in the first quarter of next year and business-to-business services by the second quarter.
On the advertising side, the portal only counts 6 advertisers but Mr. Gonzalez says the number would more than double by yearend.
In comparison, competitors such as StarMedia count 160 advertisers region-wide, up from the 16 reported in 1998.
Todito.com is based in Monterrey, Mexico, and gears its content towardSpanish-speaking users in the U.S. and Mexico.

Wales & West Utilities is a leading gas distribution business, who operates, maintains and develops this network and also provides a gas emergency service. Address capture integrates seamlessly within their SAP CRM solution and enables it to validate new addresses. In addition, address cleaning was deployed to help it verify addresses for emergency call-outs to domestic consumers.
Wales & West Utilities is a leading gas distribution business which came into being in 2005 when National Grid Transco sold four of its gas distribution networks. The company is charged with operating, maintaining and developing the network. It also provides a gas emergency service via the National Grid's call centre system. The company has 1,200 employees and 600 contractors.
When founded in June 2005, the company immediately embarked on a major business restructuring and systems replacement project. As part of this project, it sought an address management solution to help validate addresses, primarily for its new gas connections operation.
New connections is one area of the gas distribution business where there is high competition, so they were keen to find a solution that would integrate seamlessly with its SAP CRM solution, and enable it to validate new addresses quickly and efficiently. Address capture o was the ideal choice. More recently, address cleaning was deployed to help it validate addresses for emergency call-outs to domestic consumers.
Right address first time
When call centre agents enter new gas connection customers' details into the CRM system, the system calls on the Experian Data Quality software to validate the address and complete the details correctly. The software integrates so well with SAP that, according to Wales & West Utilities' head of IT Phil Pike, most agents don't even realise they are using it.
Address cleaning was introduced as part of a project to replace legacy National Grid systems with Wales & West Utilities' own solution. When a member of the public smells gas, they call an emergency number which is routed to a national call centre operated by the National Grid.
Wales & West Utilities uses the tool to validate each address as it comes in, before dispatching it to the engineer closest to the address to deal with. It has a real-time look-up to the MPRN (Meter Point Reference Number) database which identifies each individual gas meter in each dwelling in the UK and ties it to the correct address for that meter in seconds.
Benefitting from accurate data
Running address capture and cleaning is helping Wales & West Utilities to get its engineers to the right address, first time, more often. This means they are able to meet standards set by the gas regulator, Ofgem, for reaching the source of gas escapes within a one-hour period.
The successful deployment of the Experian Data Quality software as part of a much larger systems replacement project has also enabled Wales & West Utilities to become the first of the UK's independent gas networks to develop its own stand alone systems.
Running address capture and cleanse is helping to get engineers to the right address, first time, more often. This means they are able to meet standards set by the gas regulator, Ofgem.

Let F={A(i):1≤i≤t, t≥2}, be a finite collection of finite, pairwise disjoint subsets of Z+. Let S⊂R\{0} and A⊂Z+ be finite sets. Denote by SA={∑i=1asi:a∈A, Si∈S, the si are not necessarily distinct}. For S and F as above we say that S is F-free if for every A(i), A(j)∈F, i≠j, SA(i)⋂SA(j)=ϕ.
We prove that for S and F as above, S contains an F-free subset Q such that |Q|≥c(F)|S|, when c(F) is a positive constant depending only on F.
This result generalizes earlier results of Erdos [3] and Alon and Kleitman [2], on sum-free subsets. Several possible extensions are also discussed.

Food donation admission brings crowds to opening of Erie County Fair
You can add cans to the attractions at the Erie County Fair this year.
That's in addition to the cows, the chickens, the rabbits, reindeer, the rides, the music, the deep-fried Gummy bears, bacon bomb, demolition derby, Ramblin' Lou and even Nik Wallenda next week.
Thousands of cans of food were donated Wednesday at the fair's kickoff. Admission was $2 on the opening day, or it was free with a donation of food.
"It's awesome," said Jennifer Kurzdorfer, marketing and development director for the Food Bank of Western New York. "We know the community is generous. The fact that people are giving more than $2 worth of canned goods, and it only costs $2 to get in here, it sends chills up my spine."
Many of those donating food at the fair would have been there anyway Wednesday afternoon, like Chris Sullivan and Tamera Beitz of Batavia, who brought their children, Trent, 9, and Kaydin, 4.
"It's a good cause. It's always good to donate," Sullivan said.
"It's good that we don't have to pay," said Lara Husman of Holland, who brought her four children. "It's nice you can give back, and get in. At least you're helping someone out."
It's an opportunity for the fair to give back to its guests, who sometimes feel the fair experience can get expensive, said Manager Dennis R. Lang.
"Ultimately, when it's all said and done, we've been very fortunate here. We're giving back to the community, but ultimately the people who need it in Western New York are going to be recipient of it," he said.
Those who bring a can to donate Saturday will get $5 off an unlimited ride wristband, and those who come Sunday with a food donation will get $5 off the admission price. The fair will be collecting nonperishable food every day at the gates.
April Cummings of Boston and her children, Rebekkah, 13, Michael, 10, and Roman, 9, were planning on going to the fair Wednesday. "Then we found out about the donations. We thought we would take advantage of that," she said. The family brought a stack of cans to donate.
Michael likes the rides, food and games. Roman had other hopes for what he wants to see.
"Hopefully the monkeys," he said.
"There's no monkeys here," his family told him.
"Do they have any foxes here?" Roman asked.
How about cows, Roman?
Eric Shuknecht of Elba is hoping his 3-year-old cow, Ms. Atwood Madison, will win some ribbons. She is the grand champion of the Genesee County Fair, and at 1,500 to 1,600 pounds, a lot bigger than a fox.
"It's a passion of ours," says Shuknecht. We love to come here and be a participant, be a part of the fair, see the magnitude of what the Erie County Fair actually is. The fair goes on and on and on, and it's huge."
He and his family have seven cows in Barn No. 7. Shuknecht, 24, who has been coming to the fair since he was 12, will sleep and eat in the barn during the fair. He brought a cot and a sleeping bag. When he was younger, he used to like sleeping on hay bales.
"When I was younger, sleeping on the hay bale was more fun. As you get older, you use a cot because it's a little more comfortable," he said.
He's got an electric skillet for meals, and plans breakfast sandwiches and home fries for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch and he could make goulash or chicken marsala for dinner.
"Our main thing we do is cheesy ham and noodles," he said. "…One night during the week we go get a chicken barbecue."
Fairgoers will find a larger food court this year. There's also a new bathroom, first aid building and several barns, four acres of paved area, and more than 2,000 feet of power lines have been moved underground.
And on Aug. 19, hours after the fair ends, demolition will start on the Agsperience barn, the concrete block dairy barn and milking parlor barn to make way for a 60,000-square-foot agriculture discovery center.
The new building, which is estimated to cost about $8 million, is to be done in time for next year's 175th county fair.
The gates are open from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. through Aug. 18.

Inflation set to hit 20-month low
Cost of living figures are to provide further evidence that the consumer spending squeeze is loosening its grip as the rate of inflation falls to a 20-month low.
The consumer prices index (CPI) rate of inflation is forecast to fall to 3.1% in April - its lowest rate since September 2010 - from 3.5% in March after oil prices softened.
However, a 3.1% rate of inflation would still force a letter of explanation from Bank of England Governor Sir Mervyn King to the Chancellor, explaining why it remains more than one percentage point above the Government's 2% target.
Howard Archer, chief UK and European economist at IHS Global Insight, warned: "The fact remains that consumer price inflation is proving a lot stickier than had been expected and hoped for."
A further drop in inflation will bolster the case for the Bank to pump more emergency cash into the UK, after it fell into recession in the first quarter of the year.
Inflation has fallen from 5.6% last September due to the waning impact of the VAT hike at the start of 2011, falling energy, food and commodity prices and a number of bill cuts from utility providers in February.
However, oil prices rose in March amid fears over increasing tensions between the West and Iran, with Brent crude in London hitting 128 US dollars a barrel, pushing up petrol pump prices as well as having an impact on food bills. Oil prices have since fallen from their March highs, and in contrast rose significantly in April 2011, which will help the year-on-year comparison.
There should be further downward pressure in April from lower utility bills, after SSE cut tariffs, although there will be some resistance from higher excise duty on cigarettes and alcohol, as well as increased water bills.
Earlier this month, the British Retail Consortium's shop price index also recorded a fall in the annual rate of food price inflation to 4.3% in April from 5.4% in March. Households were squeezed by high prices and sluggish wage growth throughout 2011 and economists warned this pressure could be maintained if oil prices remain elevated.
The retail price index, an alternative measure of inflation, is forecast to dip slightly 3.6% to 3.5%.

Fatal Crash in Loreto
On April 7, 2013, a Helicópteros del Pacífico (Helipac) Mil Mi-8PS with 13 aboard crashed near Perenco Oil in Peru.
There were four crew and nine passengers aboard—all Peruvian— when the flight crashed in the Napo River. Hernán Cervantes Paiva, Trider Pasmiño and Máximo Rolando Cuello have been identified.
The helicopter failed at 11:00 a.m.
Perenco Peru made a public announcement regarding the crash:
"Perenco Peru regrets to announce an accident involving a MI-8 (P 1916 OB) helicopter operated by HELIPAC. The helicopter came down with 13 passengers on board during a routine flight from Iquitos to Block 67. Those on the flight, all Peruvian nationals, comprised nine passengers and four crew members. The passengers included one Perenco employee and representatives of three contractors.
The Peruvian Army is at the scene and two additional helicopters are supporting the rescue efforts. At this stage, no survivors have been found.
The company is working closely with the relevant authorities and is providing what support it can to the families of those involved. "
Block 67 is a 630-square-mile (1,020-square-kilometer) block of more than 300 million barrels.
The Peruvian Air Force activated the System Search and Rescue (SistemaSAR), which mobilized National Search and Rescue Twin Otter aircraft to land in the water in Curaray with the rescue team.

On Wednesday, December 7, the Oceanside 95, running out of Helgrens Sportfishing in Oceanside bagged 12 bluefin tuna for 18 fishermen. The El Dorado reported five bluefin for 35 anglers on December 9. Its a bit surprising to see boats from San Diego and LA still connecting with shortfin this late in the year. Heck, maybe theyll hang around all winter.
Leaving Lower Zone
Hello anglers, reported Excel skipper Mike Ramirez December 6, this morning we are leaving the lower zone. After four days and nights of great fishing we are only a few fish away from plugging the boat. The average grade of fish is 170 to 180 pounds. We were also fortune to land eleven yellowfin over 200 pounds: Kevin Mattson 203, Ken Ferris 216, James Hassen 215, Tim Turis 202, Sam Raiter 236, Steve (Tex) Nelson 222, David Gloor 219, Kevin Smith 216, James Hart 214, Brent Mobbley 204, and Dave Petruescu 203. The weather has improved and we plan on fishing a day for wahoo. Wish us luck.
On December 10 Ramirez added, Yesterday we spent the morning wahoo fishing. It didn't quite work out the way I had planned. The wind came up to 18 to 20 knots and the water temp dropped five degrees. Needless to say, the wahoo were not very active. We are headed up the line today and will be in tomorrow morning.
Night Warriors Finish Fishermen
Shortly after typing up yesterday's report we got hit by these warriors from the deep, wrote Independence skipper Jeff DeBuys December 5. It was one of those night bites you read about: 150 to 250-pound tuna biting everything. This went on till daylight, after that we got a break and caught a fish here and there until the afternoon hit again. We put a few more cows on board during all this, sorry for the lack of more pics, but it was too busy during the night bite. We are all done here with 65 fish for the effort today, and are going to start running up. Everyone is worn out.
On December 12, DeBuys posted his Jackpot winners:
1st Daniel Blalock, 245, 215 pounds
2nd Gary Sturney 243 pounds
3rd Sal Proetto 230, 210 pounds
There were 18 total cows: Nalie Kim 225 pounds; Don Klahs 200; Joe Soloman 208; 214; Rick Berg. 230; Paul Gains. 239; Dane Barriault 215; Larry Morris 200; Fred Lee 203; Bud Edwards 203; Felix Alejandro 234; Roger Eckhardt 223 and Ben Amboy, 230 pounds. Great job, everyone.
Big Day
We have a handful of nice fish this morning, posted Red Rooster III skipper Andy Cates December 7. Bait making went very good last night and we were able to top off on perfect size mackerel.
The day before, Cates noted, (We got) 11 fish over 200 pounds and one fish over 300 for the afternoon, pretty incredible. We are headed for bait and have another day tomorrow to fish. Wow, what a surprise that was!
That jackpot-winning 306-pounder came as a landmark to Ben Kita of LA, whos been engaged with Ralph Mikkelsen since before the turn of the century, for the title of most tuna caught over 300 pounds. I believe the two men are tied now, though Im not sure if they have five or six supercows.
The boat arrived December 10. Derrel Pickford won second place for a 258-pounder, and Dan Burns got third place for a 254-pounder.
Guadalupe Boilers
We made a couple tanks of mackerel last night, reported Shogun December 7, and hung tight on the anchor till 0700 with only a few yellowtail on the board. After looking around for over half an hour with no sign we took a sweep out in deeper water and it paid off. The fish were well off the island and off the edge, and they were in big schools. It was almost like fishing bluefin tuna offshore. They would boil up real good in the beginning. Wed get a flash on the slide then pick at them on a long drift. These were nicer fish as well, with over half going over 100 pounds and fish up to 145. The island looks like it is coming around with lots of fish. Make sure if you are on upcoming trips to have both 60 and 80-pound fluorocarbon and 3/0 to 7/0 circle hooks for the various-sized baits we are using. We will be in on Friday at 0500 and leave again the following morning on another six-day to the island.
Congrats to our Jackpot winners, the boat posted December 9. The jackpots:
1st place 135-pound YFT, 2nd place 128-pound YFT and 3rd place 116-pound YFT. Those weights are gilled and gutted. Good job guys, another successful trip aboard the Shogun down at Guadalupe Island.

The Blame Game
Often I like to just sit and listen to or observe people or read/listen to the news because you learn a lot about people that way. I'm not referring to any person in particular. I meant people in general.
I have learned a lot of things about people over the years by just taking in as much as I can and I wish I could write about everything I've learned, but that would be way too much for one article. There is one thing I see a lot of that I do want to write about and that is what some people call the blame game.
Some people could win a gold medal at the Olympics with this game!
So, what is the blame game and how do you play? Simple. Anytime you are unhappy with something, or something bad happens to you or your child is in trouble, just find something or someone else to blame. If you take responsibility for something or hold your child accountable for something he/she did wrong, then you're not playing the game and you'll have to be disqualified because you obviously do not understand the rules of the game.
OK, I'm definitely being a skosh sarcastic with this explanation, but you get the gist. By the way, go ahead and look up the spelling for skosh because I definitely had to.
Blaming others for our actions is what we expect from kids. I wish I could say only kids play that game, but unfortunately adults can be just as guilty. What's more unfortunate is that kids learn by watching adults so if adults irresponsibly blame others for their own or their children's actions, guess who is watching. Yep, kids. I'd like to think that by the time someone reaches adulthood, they have learned to take responsibility for their actions or bad decisions, but that's just not the case. When we act irresponsibly, we quickly look for something or someone to blame -- a scapegoat if you will. Why do we do that? It is always easier to blame something or someone else for a mistake we made because we do not want people to remember us by that mistake, but blaming something or someone does not change what we did or failed to do.
According to the Old Testament, on the Day of Atonement, a priest would confess all the sins of the Israelites over the head of a goat and then drive it into the wilderness, symbolically bearing their sins away. If only it were that easy.
By reading this, most people will think I am referring to major mistakes or truly bad life-changing actions or decisions. I want to make clear that I am also referring to minor, everyday decisions or actions. Unhealthy or overeating, overspending, engaging in self-defeating behaviors, not following rules or laws, neglecting health issues, not teaching children to be responsible, etc. This is just to name a few.
Anytime people engage in any of these behaviors, there is always something or someone else to blame. If we are overweight, it's the fast food industry's fault. If we spent our rent money on frivolous things and then we are short on rent, it's the landlord's fault for not giving us extra time to pay the rent. If we get stopped for speeding, it's the police officer's fault and he's just picking on us. If we don't pass a test, it's because the teacher does not like us. Do you see where I'm going with this? Some people are masters at making excuses or finding something or someone else to blame. The sad things is we have become so accustomed to people (adults and children) blaming others, it is expected. I want you guys to know I am not pointing fingers. I include myself in this game because none of us are exempt. Playing the blame game is easier than admitting and taking responsibility for some things we would rather not admit.
So, how would it change things if we all stopped blaming others for our behaviors, mistakes and misfortunes? That is yet another question for the ages.
Take care and God bless.

Mind controlling parasite from your cat
A parasite in the name of toxoplasma gondii will turn you into a suicidal cat loving zombie, says a new study, kinda.
This parasite which is common among cats was found to make human brain go into self changes and may even cause mental illness. Humans diagnosed with this parasite are 50 times more likely to think suicidal thoughts. and if that's not enough – they found out women in risk may think about committing suicide in violent ways like using knifes or guns.
If you see your local crazy cat lady wandering around, I guess you should keep your distance. Who knows what kind of weaponry she might have under her cart (cat-launcher anyone?)

One of the most common causes of sores on a dog's skin is excessive licking, chewing or scratching. This can be due to itchiness or obsessive behavior stemming from psychological conditions.Continue Reading
These sores, commonly called hot spots, are often on the front legs but can be found on the tail or any other area dogs can reach with its mouth. Allergies, skin diseases or pain can cause excessive licking that leads to a hot spot. Dogs suffering from stress, anxiety or boredom may also lick or chew their skin as a self-soothing behavior.
Some dogs develop sores as a result of minor skin irritation that gets infected. Sarcoptic mange and flea infestations can also result in sores as well as hair loss and itchiness. Ringworm, a common and highly contagious fungal infection, causes a small circular lesion that may be scabby or ooze pus.
Skin ulcers can also be caused by some autoimmune diseases and cancers. Sores that do not seem to heal or that appear all over the body may point to a serious underlying disease. In rare cases, the sores might be caused by an adverse reaction to medication.
Trauma may be a cause of some sores. Burns from heat or friction often cause sores. Frostbite can also cause sores, although they often develop several days after the exposure that damaged the skin. Cuts and scrapes may develop into sores due to the dog licking the wounded area or developing an infection.Learn more about Dogs

The governor's budget plan for 2012-2013 doesn't provide funding for "transitional kindergarten," a new grade level created when Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed legislation that raised the starting age for kindergarten.
That law, signed in 2010, pushes back the date by which children must turn 5 to enter kindergarten from Dec. 2 to Sept. 1. The change will be phased in one month at a time over three years starting this fall.
The legislation established transitional kindergarten for kids who don't make the new cutoff date. The program is to be taught by credentialed teachers and tailored to children who would turn 5 in September, October and November.
An estimated 40,000 children are expected to be eligible for transitional kindergarten this fall. About 120,000 kids are expected to qualify when the law takes full effect in fall 2014.
Brown is seeking to close an estimated $9.2 billion budget deficit with a mix of temporary tax increases and spending cuts to social services and education.
The Democratic governor wants to save an estimated $224 million in 2012-13 by not requiring districts to offer transitional kindergarten. That savings would increase to $672 million in 2014-2015 when the law takes full effect.
"Given the fiscal situation the state is in, we should not embark on this type of a program expansion at this time," said H.D. Palmer, Brown's finance spokesman. "This is one of the difficult decisions that was necessary to close a budget gap of $9 billion."
But preschool advocates say the plan will shut thousands of children out of public education and create financial hardship for families that can't afford an extra year of childcare or preschool.
A coalition of California educators, preschool advocates and lawmakers are vowing to fight Brown's kindergarten proposal.
"This is a nonstarter," said Catherine Atkin, executive director of the advocacy group Preschool California. "This is not the time to move backward in providing access to public education."
State Sen. Joe Simitian, who authored the 2010 law, and preschool advocates plan to speak out against the governor's proposal Friday at the annual gathering of the California Kindergarten Association in Santa Clara.
California currently has one of the country's latest cutoff dates - about one-fourth of students are 4 years old when they start kindergarten. Most U.S. states require students to be 5 to enroll.
Raising the kindergarten age could lead to stronger academic performance, higher graduation rates and fewer students needing to repeat grades or take special ed classes, supporters say.
Many families hold their children back a year to give them more time to prepare for kindergarten, which has become more academically intensive in recent years, but that isn't an option for low-income families, Atkin said.
Parents who believe their kids are ready for kindergarten or can't afford another year of childcare can petition their districts to allow their children to start school early, said Susan Burr, executive director of the state Board of Education.
The proposal to eliminate the mandate for transitional kindergarten is part of the governor's plan to give school districts more discretion over how they spend state education funds, she said.
"These decisions are best made at the local level," said Burr, who serves as Brown's education policy advisor.
