Technical Training in Non-Animal Safety Methods Held in China
GAITHERSBURG, MD, December 16, The Institute for In Vitro Sciences (IIVS), with support from its Industry Council for the Advancement of Regulatory Acceptance of Alternatives (ICARAA), conducted a training course on September 23-27 for in vitro safety testing methods for scientists from China's NIFDC (National Institutes for Food and Drug Control), a division of the China Food and Drug Administration.
The training was held at the Institute for Food and Cosmetic Control (IFCC) of the National Institutes for Food and Drug Control (NIFDC) in Beijing. The goal of the training was to familiarize NIFDC scientists with the biological relevance, critical techniques and data interpretation of in vitro (non-animal) methods for safety testing. Twenty-eight participants from 18 provincial Institutes for Food and Drug Control, Institutes for Medical Device Control and Institute for Food and Drug Safety Evaluation of NIFDC attended. Lectures and hands-on laboratory sessions focused on methods for eye irritation, skin irritation and sensitization.
Wang Youchun, Vice Director-General of NIFDC spoke at the opening ceremony and emphasized that it is "very necessary to expedite training and research of in vitro cosmetic safety evaluation methods and promote in vitro safety evaluation technology application and academic exchanges in Food and Drug Control systems in order to adapt to the international cosmetics testing technology development and to meet the requirements for actual inspection work."
The CFDA is currently responsible for the registration and subsequent post market surveillance of cosmetic products. While previous regulations have relied on animal testing, the regulatory and scientific community within China is investigating how existing knowledge of ingredients and in vitro testing could be incorporated into their regulatory framework.
"In vitro methods can provide significant technical advantages over animal models. Our training courses highlight the key technical steps that are necessary to generate relevant and reliable data," explains Erin Hill, IIVS co-founder and Vice President for Program Development. According to NIFDC participants "the training not only facilitated the application of in vitro test methods in the domestic cosmetic industry, but also laid a solid foundation for the further academic exchange, technical cooperation and personnel training between NIFDC and IIVS."

In the race for Shaw school board trustee, sub-district five, the votes were split and a run-off election may be needed to determine the winner. Carolyn Williams tallied 145 votes, or 38.26 percent, over incumbent Leon McNeal, 124, or 32.72 percent, and George Ballard, 110, or 29.02 percent.
In the race for position two of District Two for the Court of Appeals, Ceola James defeated Ermea "EJ" Russell by a vote of 6,157 to 2,920. There were also 17 write in votes counted.
The county election totals were late to report last night as the Election Commission was forced to return to the voting precincts in the Shaw area to obtain additional information from the voting machines. The results from these three precintcs were not tallied until after 11 p.m. on Tuesday.
Also, the 28 precinct-by-precinct totals for Bolivar County were not available at presstime due to what was called by Kelly as "a computer glitch in the system" at the Cleveland Courthouse.

Clean, crisp, and neat. I like this lovely modern bedroom in grey and white. Nothing visually distracting or disturbing. Perfect place for a clear mind when going to sleep or waking. Easy to relax and just enjoy the city views. I like the modern chaise at the end of the bed with the three mattresses on top of it. I'd lounge there happily.
I have a little Christmas shopping to do today...other than that am taking it a little easy today. What are your plans...we are one week before Christmas eve...how will you spend this Saturday?
What do you think of this room? Too sparse or just right?
Happy Saturday!
P.S. Felt like a criminal yesterday at the Whole Foods market in Beverly Hills. I popped into the 12 items and under line with my tiny basket of groceries and the check out guy called me out in front of everyone in line. While he was ringing me up he said loudly, "Next time, this line is ONLY for 12 items or less". So as he was loading up the bag I started counting then I confidently said, "I only counted 13 or 14...that's not that much" and then I made a "like whatever" noise from the back of my throat. He then ripped the receipt out of the cash register and said "This says 17". I felt like all of the people in line were staring at me disapprovingly and I scurried out of the grocery store as quickly as I could. As I was running to my car I was mumbling to myself out loud, "12, 13, 17? I counted 13.". How many times have I had less than 12 items? Shouldn't that count for something? Shouldn't it be an average of 12 items over several visits to the grocery store? I didn't realize how far over I was. Oy. So much for holiday cheer. LOL!

don't feel guilty...that employee was taking out his own personal agenda on you...not in the spirt of Christmas for sure!

They are referred to as 'expressholes' Coco. Not you, but others.

No sympathy from me on this one. We're ALL busy. That does not make me any more entitled than you. Or you more entitled than the people that can count.
ReplyDelete I know how you felt! Because of an empty check-out line, the 20 or less clerk told me to come ahead and she would check me out. No sooner had I put my things on the belt than a woman queued up behind me and started berating me for being there. I waited for the clerk to explain, but no such luck...on my own, in all my shameful humiliation, ready for the handcuffs. Funny now but at the time, so embarrassing! Have a Merry Christmas.
ReplyDeleteI love love love the clean fresh white bedroom! To me it says, clear mind, easy to breathe and shut out the noise. Oh my what a funny thing about the 12 item thing....I've done that many times as well. That should be forgiven for all the time we let people go ahead of us because they have fewer items....I'm just saying.

I think the room is a little in need of some color pops...a little stark for me.
I have mixed feelings about the Express line....I always try to count and if I am one over the limit don't sweat it....but I become REALLY annoyed at those who are CLEARLY WAY OVER and still expect to get checked out!
Holidays or not, cramming into the Express line when one is "out of line" is nervy and rude.

Love, love, love the bedroom! Absolutely perfect, in my opinion.
@ Elizabeth B, sending you some Christmas cheer. Sounds like you could use some.
Rachel B The scale and furnishing of this room are stunning. Very restful! I always thought that the number for express checkout was a guide (Am in Australia). A few over is OK as is a few under. I presume that boy just needed a hug and was frazzled like many with Christmas shopping!(I wonder if he'd berate someone for being under the count? Mmmmm, I think not)
x KL- AnonymousDecember 18, 2011 at 4:44 AM
sorry - but i'm on the clerks side on this one. you''re probably just shocked you got called out for a change.
ReplyDelete It seems my tale of the check out line has gotten some of you really mad at me (specifically the Anonymous commenters or the one Anonymous person who keeps commenting). :-)
Just to clarify for the mysteriously nameless mad...when I got into line I had no idea I was over and had no intention of pulling a "fast one" on anyone. I typically use the regular line when I have a lot of groceries and the express line when I have a few. This time even I was surprised by the number of items in my basket. I mention the incident only because it was slightly amusing...I wasn't mad...just thought it was so funny that I tried to challenge the clerk by counting all of the items as he was loading them into the bag and it turns out I was far over. It would have been nice though if the clerk who I see on a regular basis would have taken into account all of those times that I have three items and the people in front of me and behind me have a million items....but it is neither here nor there...
There are people with real problems and issues...this is just an amusing funny story that happened to me on Friday. I'm not taking a political stance about the express check out line nor am I trying to start a movement encouraging people to be sneaky...this is just one incident that I thought was kind of funny and embarrassing at the same time...that I thought some of you might relate to and get a chuckle.
Sorry if this little relatively insignificant story got your goat. Thank you to others of you who understand the point. :-)
Happy Holidays!
P.S. I can't stop giggling right now...I find it very funny that this check out story is creating controversy...who knew this was such a hot button issue? I certainly didn't. LOL!Oh, you Express Lane Fiend, you! ;-) If I have my kids with me and I've been fighting with them throughout the store (only ONE cookie! Put that back! NO, I'm not buying that! Why is it that EVERY SHOPPER IN THE STORE needs to know my kids by name by the time we leave?!!) there's no way in hell I can keep an accurate count of how many items in my cart. One thing's for sure, though -- I get no dirty looks in the Express Lane. Everyone is just grateful to us for leaving.

World of Outlaws Late Model Series Stars Eager To Run Tours First-Ever Event at Attica
Monday, 12 May 2008
By Kevin Kovac, World of Outlaws Late Model Series PR Director
(Attica, OH)
Most of the World of Outlaws Late Model Series stars got their first glimpse of Attica Raceway Park last year.
But their first chance to race on the popular one-third-mile clay oval will come this Friday night (May 16) when the barnstorming national tour makes its inaugural visit to the Buckeye State facility for a 50-lap A-Main paying $10,000 to win.
Mother Nature prevented the first attempt by Attica's management to run a WoO LMS event, washing out last July's scheduled mid-week date. All of the Outlaws travelers were already parked at the track when the cancellation was made, though – and to a man they were disappointed to miss an opportunity to tackle a speedway they not only had heard so many good things about, but also appeared to be so inviting.
"The first time I ever saw the place was last year in the rain," said defending WoO LMS champion Steve Francis of Ashland, Ky., who enters the Attica program tied for second in the trail points standings and still relishing a $50,000 victory in last month's Circle K Colossal 100 at The Dirt Track @ Lowe's Motor Speedway in Concord, N.C. "It looked like it could be a real racy track, so I'm looking forward to getting back there."
Yes, Friday's stop is one of the most eagerly anticipated shows on this year's WoO LMS. Attica Raceway Park possesses a well-deserved reputation for producing action-packed competition, and the country's best dirt Late Model drivers want to experience it for themselves.
Traditionally a home for open-wheel racing, the high-banked oval will continue to build the full-fender side of its program with the visit by the WoO LMS.
"We're really excited about the World of Outlaws race," said Rex LeJeune, the operations manager of Attica Raceway Park. "We're working to bring up our weekly Late Model program and having the World of Outlaws come in here will really get the division some attention."
Attica has hosted the UMP DIRTcar-sanctioned Sunoco American Late Model Series several times per season for the past decade and is back on the tour's schedule again in 2008. The speedway has also sanctioned its weekly dirt Late Model competition under the UMP DIRTcar Racing banner for the first time this season, helping attract such young Midwestern talents as Tyler Boggs of Warsaw, Ind., and Rusty Schlenk of Jackson, Mich., to early-season events.
Boggs and Schlenk are among the regional standouts expected to challenge the invading WoO LMS stars at Attica, which has not hosted a touring dirt Late Model series event other than the Sunoco ALMS since a 2004 Northern Xtreme DirtCar Series (formerly Renegade/STARS DIRTcar Series) show won by Donnie Moran of Dresden, Ohio.
The 40-year-old Francis leads the traveling WoO LMS contingent, which features a 2008 driver roster that is arguably the most talented ever to follow the tour. He's in the early stages of a points battle for the $100,000 tour championship that has the makings of a thriller, with the top-seven drivers separated by a mere 38 points through nine events.
Three-time WoO LMS champion Billy Moyer of Batesville, Ark., sits atop the tour's current points standings, with four victories already to his credit. Francis and Rick Eckert of York, Pa., will tow to Attica tied for second (10 points behind Moyer), followed by Darrell Lanigan of Union, Ky. (-24), Chub Frank of Bear Lake, Pa. (-34) and the dead-locked Shannon Babb of Moweaqua, Ill., and Josh Richards of Shinnston, W.Va. (both -38).
A bit further back in the standings are WoO LMS regulars Clint Smith of Senoia, Ga., Shane Clanton of Locust Grove, Ga., 2007 Rookie of the Year Tim Fuller of Watertown, N.Y., Brian Shirley of Chatham, Ill., and John Blankenship of Williamson, W.Va.
Friday's field is also expected to include 2008 WoO LMS Rookie of the Year contenders Vic Coffey of Leicester, N.Y., Danny Johnson of Phelps, N.Y., and Joe Isabell of Pennellville, N.Y.
Joining Boggs and Schlenk on the list of regional standouts planning to enter Friday's action are 2007 WoO LMS A-Main winner Jeep VanWormer of Pinconning, Mich., who captured two Sunoco ALMS features at Attica in 2006; defending Sunoco ALMS champion Brian Ruhlman of Clarklake, Mich.; and 2006 WoO LMS Rookie of the Year Eddie Carrier Jr. of Salt Rock, W.Va.
Friday night's program will certainly be "a dirt-track race fans dream," said LeJeune. That's because Attica's regular 410 Sprint Car division will run a complete show on the WoO LMS undercard.
Adult general admission for the rare WoO LMS/410 Sprint Car doubleheader is $30 for adults, $15 for students 11-15 and free for kids 10 and under. Pit passes will cost $35.
Pit gates will open on Fri., May 16, at 3:30 p.m., with grandstands gates unlocked at 5 p.m. and racing action heating up at 8 p.m.
The WoO LMS 50-lapper continues the 'Month of Mayhem' at Attica Raceway Park, which concludes on Fri., May 30, when the Advance Auto Parts World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series visits the track for the 40-lap Kistler Engines Classic.

Summing Up The Season: The Best Is Yet To Come
From missing the playoffs in 2010-2011, to making it to the Stanley Cup Finals in 2011-2012, there's no shortage of things for us Devils fans to be proud of after this season. On the ice and off the ice, this has been one of the most thrilling seasons for me. Whether it was work, school, or family, no matter what was troubling me on a daily basis, I knew I could go home, turn on the Devils game and everything would be alright.
When I sit back and try to think of a favorite highlight from this season, a few come to mind.
Kovalchuk's March 8th hat trick in a 5-1 win over the Islanders was definitely my favorite of the regular season. A game I sat down to watch civilly with my father (an old-time Islanders fan) ended with a glorious amount of gloating on my end.
Now don't tell me you haven't heard that before. Taking out the Rangers was huge for all Devils fans, and especially sweet for me, being a diehard Devils fan living deep in enemy territory. Rangers fans in my neighborhood won't forget it any time soon, that's for sure.
My favorite memory of all has to be watching almost every playoff game with my father and niece (who recently declared herself a Penguins fan, but let's not get into that). Besides that triumphant Devils victory over the Islanders, my dad hasn't watched hockey in quite a long time. But over the past two months, if you were looking for him on a given night around 8PM, he was probably on the couch watching the Devils game. Chances are, I was right there next to him. The combination of quality time and high-quality hockey is something that's hard to beat, and it made these playoffs very special for me.
To sum it up, this was an amazing season. The boys on the ice proved that, even though they were doubted, they're still s huge force to be reckoned with.
The Devils Army proved to the rest of the hockey world what faithful and classy fan-base we are, second to none.
All of this being said, I still can't help but feel that the best is yet to come.

This was a blast to watch all year! From retiring #27, to our road trip to Montreal (we represented NJ well!), to Henrique's winning goal! Henrique's goal was by far my favorite moment, and it was an unbelievable feeling beating the rags like that! I've watched thr replay 1,000 times! Go Devils!

[quote:Anonymous Coward 18746754:MV8xOTc0NTc2XzMzMTU4MTA1XzczNzc5RjFD] Hi guys and girls. Thanks for this thread, those hater ac's were quite annoying recently. :hf: Meanwhile Bahrain is back: http://www.nowlebanon.com/NewsArticleDetails.aspx?ID=432275 Looks like a ME showdown between the al quaida near sunnis and the mad mullah shiites is building up. Little Israel is in between, knowing that both of them are more or less in war with them. In that shitstorm Israel needs all her allies at her side. Those muslim president in the US is definitly standing on the wrong side, democrat or not democrat, doesn't matter. The person matters. [/quote]
Original Message
In continuation of a series of years of World at War,THIS IS A SPECIAL EDITION BASED UPON URGENT PENDING MATTERS, the following was the 2011 thread.
Thread: The World at War, Official 2011 war thread for North Korea, Iran, Israel, China, U.S.
The following is the 2012 Thread up to the end of August.
Thread: World at War, Official 2012 Thread for Israel, Iran, Syria, Hezbollah, PA, Turkey, Egypt, Pakistan, India, North Korea, Russia, China, U.S.
Now we enter into the last four months of 2012. Follow the past year to see where we are at. I try not to give much BS and only ask that if you do not care for the topic or format, do not visit this thread.
Trolls, you will be deleted or blocked, you can start your own thread if you wish, just leave us alone!
As stated at the start of 2012, 2012 will be the start of much chaos economically as well as militarily. We have gone through much doom and gloom already. But now, it is of urgency that we wait to see whether Iran goes nuclear, whether Israel takes it upon herself to attack Iran, whether the US leaves Israel to fend for herself, what the results of the US election have in store for Israel, the Mideast and the US, and what will happen in Syria.
Israel must face the challenge of a nuclear Iran with or without the U.S. to protect her. Further, Syria feels threatened as did Libya where Assad may lash out at Israel. The Hezbollah may too jump on in. Lebanon and Jordan may face their own arab spring. Egypt may tear up the Israeli peace treaty any day. Turkey looks as Israel with jealousy for Israel's gas and oil reserves in the Med.
China and Russia wish to impose retrictions on America's once global dominance where there will be more challenges to U.S. interests leading to possible military blows.
North Korea's tender young leader has no fear in challenging U.S. might and may cause further military adventurism.
Pakistan has nukes that could be stolen and/or Pakistan and the U.S. may enter into more vis a vis hotile interactions.
Iran is threatening to challenge the west and is due for a nuclear detonation soon. What the U.S./and or Israel do to stop Iran is worthy of watching every day.
Iraq is now under Iran's thumb and likely will further become a feifdom of Iran.
Afghanistan is soon to force the withdrawal of U.S. forces.
India and Pakistan may soon come to blows.
Will the global economic crisis resolve itself, will the crisis collapse the world economy, or whom may come forward with some new currency?
Further, spiritually, 2012 looks to be a year of turmoil.
There are seers warning of some type of sign from God this coming year. The Mayan's seemed to predict something. The Pope may flee Rome? A comet in the sky? Great earthquakes? Signs in the sky?
Look further at bug-outs or going grey, everyone should be prepping by now in case things really do go bad. I am just saying.
So, if you wish to discuss the above mentioned or wish to hear it from others, feel free to drop in and leave some good 5 stars if you find this inforomation either entertaining or productive.

Ha. Your assuming that DIRECTV app is broken based on it not working with a jb device? DIRECTV has always said they will work hard to make their app not work with jb devices because of copyright issues. And they are smart, so I have to wonder if one day they won't figure out how to make their app never work again on a jb device.
As far as JB devices using this APP, It is a losing battle. There will always be a workaround.
For the APP itself, The APP does have issues they need to address. xCon developers discovered the glitch already. Direct does need to fix it. It has nothing to do with JB devices. There is an error in the programming.

"Trial by jury is one of the fundamental ideals of American democracy; serving as jurors reminds us that these ideals exist only as long as individual citizens are willing to uphold them. MORE »
Often, we don't trust any one person to determine another person's fate. Instead, we trust the community to make the right decision. This is our democratic ideal--to impart justice that is truly of the people, by the people, and for the people. Democracy is made real every day by thousands of jurors across the nation. Most jurors consider it interesting, educational, and an honor to play a part in the fair administration of justice. The juror orientation video, "Ideals Made Real," is typically shown at the courthouse to help you learn more about jury service and your important role in the legal system.
You do not need any special skills or legal knowledge to be a juror. All you need is an open mind and a readiness to work with the other jurors to make decisions. You also need to be impartial-in other words, your decisions must not be influenced by personal feelings and biases.
No one is exempt because of his or her job, race, color, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, or economic status.
If you are qualified, please follow the directions on your summons and call in or report as instructed. You will receive additional information when you report for service.
Even if you are qualified to be a juror, you might still have what is called an "undue hardship." An undue hardship is a difficult situation that prevents you from being able to serve.
If you face an undue hardship, you may be able to be excused from jury service or postpone service.
If you are eligible for an excuse, please mark the correct category on the summons response form. Return it to the court right away. Even if you ask for an excuse, you may still be required to come to court to speak with the judge.
Sometimes business or personal matters make it impossible to serve on the date shown on your summons. In that case you may ask to postpone your jury service. Follow the directions on your summons to request a postponement. Give the earliest date you will be able to serve.
Note: The California Labor Code protects jurors. It is against the law to fire or harass an employee who is summoned to serve as a juror. However, you should let your employer know well in advance, as soon as you receive your summons. You should contact the court if you have a problem with your employer because of jury service.

Order Information
This is the witty, ironic, and deliciously outspoken coming-of-age memoir of Jack de Yonge set in Fairbanks, Alaska -- a once thriving little mining town slowly dying in the remote center of the vast territory in 1934. As Jack's dad liked say, no matter what direction you went out of town, you soon arrived in Nowhere.
Then, World War II breaks out, and the Japanese attack Alaska. The sleepy little river town springs back to life with the arrival of thousands of U.S. soldiers, Russian lend- lease pilots, and construction workers who keep the red-light district busy and the bars rocking around the clock.
The son of a hardwareman at the N.C. Company and a black Irish daughter of the gold rush, de Yonge is a fist-fighting, music-loving, reluctant altar boy who discovers his own truths about sex, religion, racism, and how the world works. His earthy story describes how war arrives in a small Alaska town next to Nowhere— and nothing is ever the same again.
It must be said that BOOM TOWN BOY is a unique contribution to Alaska history. --Michael Carey, KSKA public radio, Anchorage
Jack de Yonge's memoir starts as a wry, engaging story and quickly becomes a great read. He was a Tom Sawyer on the tundra and his tale is worthy of Mark Twain. --David Horsey, Seattle.PI.com, two-time Pulitzer Prize winner
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Jack de Yonge is a retired newspaper reporter- editor, political-environmental activist, and avid fly-fisherman who lives with his wife, Sonjia, in Concrete, Washington. De Yonge's journalism career took him to the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner, the Seattle Times, and the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
