text: Open Access Article: Effect of Transportation and Pre-Slaughter Handling on Welfare and Meat Quality of Cattle: Case Study of Kumasi Abattoir, Ghana by Samuel Frimpong, Girma Gebresenbet, Emmanuel Bobobee, Elias D. Aklaku and Ibrahim Hamdu Vet. Sci. 2014, 1(3), 174-191; doi:10.3390/vetsci1030174 - published 19 November 2014 Show/Hide Abstract Abstract: This study was conducted at the Kumasi Abattoir Company Limited (K.A.C.L) in Ghana to assess the effect of pre-slaughter handling on welfare and meat quality of cattle. Behaviour measurements were done on 200 cattle pre-slaughter and the methods by which the cattle were handled were recorded to evaluate the effect of pre-slaughter handling on their welfare. Ultimate pH24 and percent cooking loss were measured on 50 poorly-handled cattle pre-slaughter. The cattle were poorly-handled because they were beaten and, whipped. Based on pH24, meat quality was assessed as normal (pH from 5.5–5.8), moderate dark, firm and dry (DFD) (5.8 ≤ pH ≤ 6.2), and DFD (pH from 6.2–6.7). Five hundred carcasses were visually observed for bruising in them and the number of non-ambulatory cattle slaughtered in a week was recorded. The relationship between pH24 value and cooking loss in meat from the 50 poorly-handled cattle was investigated. Behaviours exhibited by poorly-handled cattle pre-slaughter included raising of their tail, kicking, lying down and refusing to move, jumping, vocalising, panting, and charging at handlers. Also lashes/whips, pulling of animals' tails, stamping on their tails, and hitting them with sticks, stones and ropes were among the prominent methods by which the cattle were handled. Mean pH24 and mean percent cooking loss were significant (p < 0.05) at 6.22 ± 0.10 and 22.51 ± 3.25, respectively, for poorly-handled cattle. There was a strong negative correlation between pH24 and percent cooking loss in poorly-handled cattle (r = −0.77). Out of the 500 carcasses assessed for bruising, 18% had no bruises, 60% had slight bruises while 22% had severe bruises. Ninety (90) non-ambulatory cattle were slaughtered within seven (7) days, representing 7.1% of the total number of cattle slaughtered within that period. The results indicated that handling of cattle pre-slaughter have effects on their meat quality and welfare. Eighty-two percent of the bruised carcass and 7.1% of non-ambulatory animals indicated poor meat quality. Meat quality assessment indicated that most of the meat had dark, firm and dry (DFD) tendency. The water holding capacity of the meat sampled in this study (by means of cooking loss) indicated that the meat quality was compromised. Open Access Article: Preliminary Metabolism of Lomustine in Dogs and Comparative Cytotoxicity of Lomustine and Its Major Metabolites in Canine Cells by Thushara Chakkath, Sidonie N. Lavergne, Timothy M. Fan, David Bunick and Levent Dirikolu Vet. Sci. 2014, 1(3), 159-173; doi:10.3390/vetsci1030159 - published 4 November 2014 Show/Hide Abstract Abstract: The nitrosourea drug lomustine is used clinically for treating a wide variety of malignancies, most commonly brain tumors and lymphoma. Lomustine undergoes hydrolysis in vivo to form isomeric metabolites, primarily trans-4-hydroxylomustine (trans-4) and cis-4-hydroxylomustine (cis-4) in various animal species including humans. Despite its widespread usage to treat canine lymphoma, the metabolism of lomustine has not been studied in dogs. It is reported that 4'-hydroxylation products of lomustine (trans-4 and cis-4) have enhanced alkylating activity and reduced toxic effects relative to lomustine, resulting in a better therapeutic index of each of the metabolites relative to the parent compound. Our results show that the metabolic profile of lomustine in dogs is similar to that in humans with trans-4 being the major metabolite and cis-4 as the minor metabolite. Comparative cytotoxicity studies of lomustine and its trans-4 and cis-4 metabolites in canine lymphoma cell lines 17–71 and GL-1 show that there is no difference in the cytotoxicity of the three compounds. In addition, a concentration and time-dependent cell killing was seen in both of these cell lines. Also, primary canine cells like peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from lymphoma dogs did not show any sensitivity towards lomustine and its metabolites. Open Access Case Report: Fatal Canine Leptospirosis on St. Kitts by Amanda Loftis, Fernanda Castillo-Alcala, Lewis Bogdanovic and Ashutosh Verma Vet. Sci. 2014, 1(3), 150-158; doi:10.3390/vetsci1030150 - published 20 October 2014 Show/Hide Abstract Abstract: Through prospective enrollment of canine patients at the Ross University Veterinary Clinic, on St. Kitts, four cases of acute fatal leptospirosis were diagnosed. Clinical, pathological, and diagnostic findings in these cases are summarized in this case series. Icterus, thrombocytopenia, hyperphosphatemia, pulmonary hemorrhage, and both hepatocellular and renal damage were noted in all four cases. Interestingly, extensive myocardial involvement was also observed in one case. To our knowledge, this is the first documentation of myocarditis in a dog with leptospirosis, and the first report of fatal leptospirosis in any animal species on the Caribbean island of St. Kitts. Open Access Review Review: Sublingual Immunotherapy in Human and Canine Atopic Dermatitis: A Mini Review by Ibrahim Ozmen and Rosanna Marsella Vet. Sci. 2014, 1(3), 136-149; doi:10.3390/vetsci1030136 - published 13 October 2014 Show/Hide Abstract Abstract: Atopic Dermatitis (AD) is a prevalent disease that affects both humans and animals. Dogs share similar environments with the owners and spontaneously develop a disease that is clinically and immunologically identical to AD in humans. In past decades AD has become more and more common in both dogs and humans, possibly due to the increased exposure to indoor allergens and decreased exposure to parasites and beneficial bacteria. The allergic component plays an important role in both species. Allergen specific immunotherapy (ASIT) has been used with great success in veterinary medicine for decades for the treatment of AD and traditionally has been accomplished with subcutaneous injections. In human medicine, ASIT has been traditionally used for respiratory manifestations of atopic disease and only recently considered for the therapy of AD. Interestingly, dogs primarily express cutaneous manifestations of atopic disease and only rarely progress from cutaneous into respiratory disease, a process referred in human medicine as "atopic march". Recently, sublingual immunotherapy has been replacing subcutaneous immunotherapy both in human and veterinary medicine due to its ease and safety, leading to increased compliance. The purpose of this mini review is to focus on the use of sublingual immunotherapy for AD highlighting similarities and differences between humans and dogs. Open Access Review Review: Comparative Aspects of Human, Canine, and Feline Obesity and Factors Predicting Progression to Diabetes by Margarethe Hoenig Vet. Sci. 2014, 1(2), 121-135; doi:10.3390/vetsci1020121 - published 21 August 2014 Show/Hide Abstract Abstract: Obesity and diabetes mellitus are common diseases in humans, dogs and cats and their prevalence is increasing. Obesity has been clearly identified as a risk factor for type 2 diabetes in humans and cats but recent data are missing in dogs, although there is evidence that the unprecedented rise in canine obesity in the last decade has led to a rise in canine diabetes of similar magnitude. The insulin resistance of obesity has often been portrayed as major culprit in the loss of glucose control; however, insulin resistance alone is not a good indicator of progression to diabetes in people or pets. A loss of beta cell function is necessary to provide the link to impaired fasting and post-prandial plasma glucose. Increased endogenous glucose output by the liver is also a prerequisite for the increase in fasting blood glucose when non-diabetic obese humans and pets develop diabetes. This may be due to decreased hepatic insulin sensitivity, decreased insulin concentrations, or a combination of both. While inflammation is a major link between obesity and diabetes in humans, there is little evidence that a similar phenomenon exists in cats. In dogs, more studies are needed to examine this important issue. Open Access Article: Feasibility Study of a Standardized Novel Animal Model for Cervical Vertebral Augmentation in Sheep Using a PTH Derivate Bioactive Material by Karina Klein, Jason Schense, Peter W. Kronen, Nathalie Fouche, Mariano Makara, Katharina Kämpf, Thomas Steffen and Brigitte von Rechenberg Vet. Sci. 2014, 1(2), 96-120; doi:10.3390/vetsci1020096 - published 4 August 2014 Show/Hide Abstract Abstract: Prophylactic local treatment involving percutaneous vertebral augmentation using bioactive materials is a new treatment strategy in spine surgery in humans for vertebral bodies at risk. Standardized animal models for this procedure are almost non-existent. The purpose of this study was to: (i) prove the efficacy of PTH derivate bioactive materials for new bone formation; and (ii) create a new, highly standardized cervical vertebral augmentation model in sheep. Three different concentrations of a modified form of parathyroid hormone (PTH) covalently bound to a fibrin matrix containing strontium carbonate were used. The same matrix without PTH and shams were used as controls. The bioactive materials were locally injected. Using a ventral surgical approach, a pre-set amount of material was injected under fluoroscopic guidance into the intertrabecular space of three vertebral bodies. Intravital fluorescent dyes were used to demonstrate new bone formation. After an observation period of four months, the animals were sacrificed, and vertebral bodies were processed for µCT, histomorphometry, histology and sequential fluorescence evaluation. Enhanced localized bone activity and new bone formation in the injected area could be determined for all experimental groups in comparison to the matrix alone and sham with the highest values detected for the group with a medium concentration of PTH.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Families seek apology, ways to prevent other deaths
IN March, 10-year-old Ashuza Halisi died at the Maples Surgical Centre in Winnipeg, likely as a result of an abdominal infection after her small bowel was cut accidentally during surgery to repair an umbilical hernia.
Her father, Willy, was adamant. "I do not think of it as an accident," he told the Free Press. "I see it as a mistake."
After the Error is a compelling collection of 16 case studies from across Canada, including one from Manitoba (though not the Halisi case, which is too recent).
It recounts the experiences of individuals and their families who have been through a similar ordeal and discusses the projects they have undertaken to prevent others from having it happen to them.
Authors Susan McIver and Robin Wyndham are both well versed in Canadian health care. McIver holds a PhD in entomology and microbiology; she was a medical professor at University of Toronto and a department chairwoman at the University of Guelph and served as a B.C. coroner. Wyndham was a registered nurse for 34 years at Vancouver General.
McIver has written previously about this subject in Medical Nightmares: The Human Face of Errors, published in 2001. It received criticism in some quarters due to its reliance on American statistics.
No such argument can be made here, and the authors do an admirable job in presenting their evidence. They report that 40,000 to 43,000 Canadians die annually due to medical errors. To place that number in perspective, cancer deaths in 2012 were expected to be 75,700.
The stories are alarming. One documents the case of Mimi Raglan of Winnipeg, who "had concerns about the attitude of nursing staff and patient-care managers, limited physician attendance, infections and pain control" in the care of her mother, Frances. While her mother was hospitalized, Mimi was consistently denied access to her ailing mother's health-care record.
It was only after her mother died after a fall at the Riverview Health Centre in 2001 that Mimi was given a copy of the chart. She discovered a series of errors including the administration of medication that suppressed Frances' immune system and contributed to her death from pneumonia.
McIver and Wyndham also document the case of Vanessa Young of Oakville, Ont., who was 15 in 2000 when was prescribed cisapride, a drug used to relieve gastrointestinal distress. Vanessa died as a result of cardiac arrest, due to an abnormal heart rhythm that had been identified as a side-effect of the drug cisapride.
What Vanessa's family didn't know at the time of her death was the pharmaceutical company that created the drug had been aware of this issue since 1992 but continued to market cisapride. At the inquest that followed Vanessa's death, it was noted that "prescription drugs ... are one of Canada's most serious and under-reported causes of health problems."
Then there is the case of retired Montreal physician Jacques Besson. He entered hospital in 2003 for what should have been routine surgery for a herniated disk. Instead, he spent the next year fighting a series of bacterial infections including the "superbug" methicillin resistant Staph aureus (MRSA).
Besson survived, but out of the close to 250,000 hospital-acquired infections that occur each year, between 8,000 and 12,000 Canadians die. The majority of these infections are preventable and can be circumvented by one simple intervention: good hand-washing.
One would think that in our increasingly litigious society that people would be seeking redress through the legal system for negligence. This is far from the truth.
Two consistent themes become apparent in McIver and Wyndham's case studies. The first is that when these cases do end up in court, people are most interested in knowing what happened, why it happened and what can be done so that it will not happen again.
Second, victims need an admission that a mistake was made along with an apology: a sincere acknowledgment that the perpetrators accept the blame for what happened.
To avoid expensive legal costs to a hospital, damage to its reputation and the possibility that staff members may lose their jobs in cases of potential negligence, the health-care system often appears to erect a wall of silence.
In the Halisi case, it took a little over a month for the Winnipeg Regional Healthy Authority to issue a formal written and verbal apology.
Like so many other families, the Halisis have said they are not interested in financial compensation for Ashuza's death. "Nothing can bring her back," Willy Halisi told the Free Press. "No amount of money can do that."
As humans, we are all vulnerable to error, and health-care-related ones occur in even the best of hospitals. There is no intent to harm. The authors note that how an institution deals with an error makes all the difference in how patients and families cope with adverse outcomes.
Health-care providers and laypersons alike are encouraged to read these stories and recognize that the patient's voice is a health-care resource that cannot and should no longer be ignored.
Evelyn Lundeen, a former critical care nurse, is a nursing instructor at Red River College and a Winnipeg-based author and writer.

Thousands of People Without Power In The Foothills For Four Straight Days
Power crews were working around the clock Monday night to restore power to more than five thousand homes and businesses in Nevada County.
The power went out last weekend when a storm dropped several feet of heavy, wet snow in the foothills. Trees toppled, power lines snapped and homes and businesses went dark.
Rodger Asher, a retired PG&E lineman, sat in his dark living room lit only with an oil lamp and from his window watched linemen from San Francisco work to restore his power.
"You want to live in paradise you better put up with it," said Asher. Asher and his wife used the wood burning stove to keep warm and to heat food. They turned their snow-covered back porch into a freezer for their food.
Outside his home, more than a dozen trucks lined his Nevada City street. Crews used chainsaws to remove fallen tree limbs from power lines and said they'd be at this one site until the sun came up.
"If you've got lights, thank a lineman," said Jeff Barnard, a lineman with All Day Electric company. He and his crews worked a 32 hour shift, slept for eight hours and were back on the job Monday night.Copyright © 2014, Los Angeles Times

Jarren Benton - P.I.M.P.
Artist: Jarren Benton
Producer: Jarren Benton
Album: Unreleased
Avg Rating: 3.7 ( 26 votes )
Though Jarren Benton's first featured cut, Skate, evoked Eminem comparisons due to its quirky production, hyperbolic humor, and cartoonish sound effects, this previously-unreleased record (making its online premiere here at DJBooth.net) showcases an entirely different side of the ATL up-and-comer. For one thing, P.I.M.P. has a much more Southern vibe; while retaining the expressive vocal cadences that defined his flow on the previous feature, he amps up the swagger (or "flickiness," if you prefer) considerably, drawling each final syllable as he lets listeners know that paper is always priority numero uno. The artist's own production, complete with a pitch-shifted "feelin' like a pimp" sample behind the hook, heightens the far-out ambience with spacey choral synths. Fans of this soon-to-be-signed up-and-comer will want to keep their eyes glued to the Booth come spring – this April, we'll premiere Benton's contribution to our exclusive freestyle series.

The standalone Xbox One bundle, which costs AED 1,749, will include copies of Forza Motorsport 5, FIFA 15, Halo Spartan Assault, Max Curse of the Brotherhood, and Lococyle, along with the regular accessories like a 500GB HDD, a wireless controller, an HDMI cable, a chat headset and a 14-day Xbox Live Gold trial.
The Kinect-inclusive Xbox One will include a slightly different games bundle with FIFA 15, Kinect Sports Rivals, Halo Spartan Assault, Max Curse of the Brotherhood and Lococyle (so, no Forza Motorsport 5), with similiar accessories as the above bundle except that this one will come with an Xbox One Day One limited edition wireless controller and an Xbox sticker. This will cost AED 2,199.
Curiously, the official press release states that FIFA 15 will release alongside Xbox One on September 5 in the UAE, a good twenty days before the title releases in Europe on September 26. It also appears that the pre-order will include a redeemable code instead of an acutal copy of FIFA 15.
The Xbox One pre-order is available across all retail stores in the country.

Dear Chain Gang, I just wanted to let you know that I received my opal nose ring today (in less time than your original estimate, I might add), and it's just beautiful. I was really worried about the quality of the opal at 2 mm, but the colors are so vibrant--you've really done my birthstone justice! :-) I thought you'd also like to know that your workmanship will be showcased at my sister's wedding this summer, where I will stand with her as her matron of honor. These days it's hard to find businesses that are committed to customer service, and I want to thank you for your professionalism, courtesy, and stunning craftsmanship. You've got a return customer in me. --Rachel

No access to spice has regular users complaining, police say
Sgt. Christopher Goodnow said as of 5:30 p.m. on Sunday, another person had overdosed in the previous 24 hours. This brings the total number of reported overdoses in the city to 48 since last Monday — although police said some overdoses could have gone unreported.
A sweet-tasting version of spice called "Smacked!" has been linked to a number of the overdoses. The products are marketed as incense and typically sell for $10 a package. Coated in psychoactive compounds that mimic THC, the active ingredient in marijuana, the products are consumed or smoked.

And thanks to Twitter and attending different events, I've been lucky enough to have met many of them over the last few years.

Welcome to Copenhagen. It's an incredible city full of wonderful side streets, cosy cafés and ridiculously overpriced meals. With the typical pay for a coffee shop job starting at about 110 DKK (€14.75/$20) an hour, it's not so much that things are expensive relative to the economy, it's just that the rest of us don't get paid in Danish Kroner. Let's face it, when a medium Big Mac meal costs 53 DKK and a Cheeseburger costs 10 DKK, you know your budget is in trouble.Read full entry »

Cook also believes decision to starve England of quality spin bowling in the build-up to the first Test might just backfire on India.
The tactic, created by India coach Duncan Fletcher, has left England facing an unyielding diet of seam and relying on nets to get their defences fine-tuned against slow bowling.
But after watching Jonathan Trott become the fifth centurion from English ranks in the three warm-ups, Cook, above, said that Fletcher�s mind games have only served to boost confidence.
�You can have as many nets as you want for practice, but it is time in the middle and getting used to the rhythm of a game that�s vital and all of us have got runs out there,� the Daily Express quoted Cook, as saying.
�Clearly there has been a message of some sort. We�ve had [former Test spinner] Amit Mishra in this game and I don�t know if he �s been injured but he didn�t bowl that many overs,� he added.
�The next four matches will tell you whether it has worked, but we�ve had some good practice out of the three games and everyone in our batting unit is feeling confident,� he said.
Trott, who scored 101 before retiring yesterday, joined Cook, Nick Compton, Kevin Pietersen and Jonny Bairstow in reaching three figures as England�s four-day match with Haryana ground to a draw.

I picked up 4 of these; http://www.usplastic.com/catalog/pro...uct%5Fid=15040
carboys for free today and am trying to think of how i can use them as beer fermentors.
Is polypropalene ok to brew beer in??
It has a screw top. Should I drill a hole in the screw top and then fit a blow off tube into the hole,silicon seal it and be good to go?
Should I buy a #13 1/2 stopper and drill a hole in if for a airlock?
Should I use it as a primarly or secondary? I have only one glass 6.5 carboy of my own other then these.
I really appreciate any words of advice from those out there in the know.
I can't think of any reason not to ferment in one of those. but I'm no expert.
as for the blow off
I was gonna say they seem pretty expensive but I didnt read where you got them for free.
Which size did you get? I am thinking 13 gallons of brew at a time would rock!!
If they're good to go for fermenting.
I have the smallest one, got it for free from where i work b/c someone order an extra one by accident...never really thought to brew in it....but it could be cool for a small 2 gallon "test batch."
it says it meets FDA standards...but what does that mean in terms of brewing....probably nothing. it will go great with the 4 new Better Bottles that will be arriving in my hands the end of this month.
From what I understand polypropylene is not very good for keeping oxygen out.
Since its free, you might try it out, see what happens. If your beer tastes like cardboard you know not to use it for this.
If that's the case you have a good container for mixing/storing cleaners or sanitizers.
My guess for short term use its ok. I would not use it for long term ferments like lagers, wines or meads.
If you really want to go plastic, PET is the best route. Look at the soda bottles or the plastic beer bottles. They are all PET. You can ID the PET with a triangle shaped recycle symbol with a 1 in the center. You can also find a PET or PETE marking nearby. I have 4 PET 3 gal water bottles that make for excellent mini fermentors ($4.99 each w/ water). Its just a matter of time before we start seeing these in 5 gal sizes.
I would also cart your bottle into the LHBS and try fitting it with a carboy cap before using a plug.
Good Luck

Thank an Employee at Dansville Schools
November 7, 2014
Thank an Employee…
Have you ever wanted to thank someone that has made a difference in your child's education or well being at our school? Or even better, thank someone because Thanksgiving is right around the corner? Here's your chance…
If you go to the Dansville's website, and locate the tab on the right labeled "Thank an Aggie Employee" you can fill out a simple form to thank someone in our district, not just a teacher.
These forms are sent to an administrator who then "delivers" them to the intended employee. This allows administrators to actually "read" the good things their staff members are doing. Sometimes we are unable to hear the kind words being said to our staff, and it is nice to hear the great things they are doing for our students.
It is also just a nice way to make someone's day…
Self-Harm Presentation at Dansville Schools
October 25, 2014
It seems in the last few years, we are hearing more and more about self-injury among youth in society. Whether because a kid is feeling overwhelmed with stress, frustration, sadness, or just to gain attention – we hear about kids and teens that are cutting themselves or giving themselves burns. This is a serious and wide-spread behavior that we all need more information on. Whether it is your child or your child's friend, what do you do if you find out they are harming themselves? Is it a suicide attempt? Is it for attention? Do they just not know how to cope?
Here at Dansville Schools, we want to help you gather information to sort through what may be going on and what to do. Kirsti Reeves, a Licensed Professional Counselor, who is experienced at speaking about self-injury and has worked with kids and adults who struggle with this, is going to be coming to Dansville High School to share how to be proactive in addressing this issue. She is going to address questions such as: How do I recognize the signs of self-injury? What does this really mean? And, How do I respond to my child if I find out they are exhibiting this behavior?
We hope to see you here on Thursday, November 6th at 5:00 p.m. in the High School Library. Click here to see the flyer.

Project Natal will be in shops by October, a new retail listing has suggested.
VG247 has spotted details of a Yoga Game from European publisher Tradewest on Amazon and an internal memo at GAME.
But that's not the interesting part. The release date for the game on both is down for October.
Could this mean that Natal will be here by then? It certainly appears so - and has become even more intriguing after Amazon pulled down its listing.
So, a Halo: Reach release date in September, Natal in October, and Call Of Duty 7 following in November.
Will we have any cash leftover for Christmas?
At least Gears Of War 3's release date won't arrive until April next year, according to Edge.

diagnose first; then replace.

Replace the whole distributor because the seal is leaked and the oil getting inside the distributor causing the module disrupting spark timing.
