With the advent of the Internet and its applications (blogs, tweets, Facebook) more people have more ability to speak out than ever before, resulting in the greatest diversity of expression in history. But I'm still not convinced that we're being heard any more efficiently despite having that louder, more expansive voice.
The two most obvious examples are religion and politics (itself a sort of burned over district of religion), where the use of mass communication is to deliver a message, not to receive (or revise) one. The ability to testify (and be seen doing so) of one's own standing relative to an essentially fixed (orthodox) position is designed to reinforce that core message as it is.
In other words, the conclusion has already been reached, and the goal is to express that conclusion as clearly and forcefully as possible. The fundamental intent is to implant that conclusion in the mind of the recipient and replace whatever is there now through a combination of repetition (political talking points) and expressive power (rhetoric).
A story (or a blog post) necessarily testifies of an already well-conceived viewpoint. Though the plot may take the form of an argument (try/fail cycles accompanied by a shifting understanding of the nature of the problem), it's a functional strawman to the author's narrative intent—the character will move as his strings are pulled.
So it's to the author's advantage to pull all available levers to make that rhetorical point as loudly and clearly as possible. This can (and arguably should) lead to increased shrillness, greater pyrotechnics, and more distinct polarization between hero and villain. To deliver the conceptual payload, one must first get the attention of the reader, then drive the key points home as forcefully (and starkly) as possible.
But in literature we like to speak of subtlety, variable interpretation, and individual meaning. We want to engage a discussion rather than push a specific conclusion. We want to convince (convert) rather than merely indoctrinate. We want to see a body of work (or at least a collection of stories) as a larger argument in an expansive dialogue that helps all of us discover greater truth (and perhaps even unity). The story is a point of discussion, not the whole argument.
This tension between the rhetorical (one-shot testifying) and the dialectic (extended argument intended to discover new conclusions) is at least as old as the ancient Greeks and has been a staple of academic consideration from the beginning.
The problem is that market forces are not conducive to extended conversations. If your last book sells you get a shot at the next one; otherwise, you're out of luck and looking for a new publisher. The mechanics of markets tend to push more toward the rhetorical extreme—you have to make the biggest splash you can and deliver the entire conceptual payload in a single go.
In other words, the market requires that you testify rather than argue to maximize short term return on investment and allow publishers to bring out the next book.
Except that strong testimonies are built line upon line, precept on precept; here a little and there a little until we reach a fullness of understanding. We are converted bit by bit, point by point, until we reach a critical mass that carries us forward in a rush. The Spirit testifies to the truth of a conclusion won through reasoned argument far more often than the Spirit delivers that truth in a single massive bestowal.
Which is why alternative media (and ebook publishing in particular) is so critical to realizing the greater power of literature. Where an author has time to develop an argument over multiple works, the conversation itself has a chance to become deeper and more considered, and readers have more entry points to that conversation. When a story gains greater shelf-life and future availability to readers, it can afford to carry a smaller (but more fully realized) conceptual payload that informs future stories.
By bypassing the logistical and capital overhead of traditional publishing, distribution, and warehousing, ebooks have the potential to restore dialogue to literature and integrate both the power of rhetoric and the depth of dialectic in ways not seen since the famous five-foot bookshelf.
And if we're lucky, we can tone down some of the shrillness of speaking out so that we can actually be heard as we reason together to discover greater truth.

I have received great personal reward from dentistry over the years, but the time has come for me to retire from private practice.
Although I won't be seeing you in my office, you and your family will remain in my thoughts. I appreciate the confidence you have placed in me by allowing me to serve your dental needs.
We went looking for the face of Mono County this week, but we didn't find it.
We tried straining our ears for the voice of Mono County, but it was so quiet in Bridgeport that all we heard was the breeze fanning the fog over the Mono Basin and the occasional—and distant—roar of a snowmobile.
The curious vacuum in the county's halls of politics has taken nearly everyone by surprise.
I am writing to respond to the article on the cover of the Dec.21 edition titled "Atmospheric river" pattern threatens to flood California."
I can understand the impact which occurred in December 1861 and the devastation it must of had. However things aren't exactly the same as 1861.
All the major rivers in southern California are hundreds of feet wide and deep, lined with concrete.
We all need to start the New Year with a pat on the back to the Mammoth Lakes Town Council and Staff.
They solved the MLLA judgment crisis without taxing the innocent. We should all appreciate how hard it is to make difficult decisions that affect people and friends. The Council could have taken the easy way out by taxing homeowners. Thankfully, they did not follow that unfair path. Thank you.
Now that the first round of High Holidays are on the ebb, we're left on the edge of speechlessness.
In a word, "Wow" might do it. Given two words, we'd say "Holy Smokes!"
No one around here can remember Mammoth being so packed in a two-week period. Matthew Lehman, a lifelong Mammothite who just happens to be the mayor of our little burg, said the other day he can't remember one like it.

Re: doubt about reduce tasks and block writes
Raj's almost right. In times of high load or space fillup on a local
DN, the NameNode may decide to instead pick a non-local DN for replica-writing. In this way, the Node A may get a "copy 0" of a replica from a task. This is per the default block placement policy. P.s. Note that HDFS hardly makes any differences between replicas, hence there is no hard-concept of a "copy 0" or "copy 1" block, at the NN level, it treats all DNs in pipeline equally and same for replicas.

[NEW UPDATE] MCMC Will Investigate The Two Facebook Gun Shops
The sale of gun in Malaysia was once an illegal underground operation. Now, people are not only renting guns, but apparently selling it via Facebook too.
MCMC says they will investigate the two Facebook gun shops
The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) will investigate a report which claimed two Facebook accounts were offering firearms for sale.
Communication and Multimedia Ministry secretary-general Datuk Seri Kamaruddin Siaraf said the ministry viewed seriously the report.
"MCMC will investigate the matter under the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998. If there is any breach of the law, MCMC will take follow-up action, including forwarding the investigation papers to the public prosecutor's office," he told reporters.
Two Facebook pages found openly selling guns to Malaysians
One of the accounts claimed to offer a range of pistols, revolvers and assault rifles for between RM500 and RM15,000.
The list of weapons for sale on the account included AK-47 assault rifles, at RM12,000, Smith & Wesson pistols at RM500, and revolvers with two boxes of ammunition at RM15,000.
The other declared that it could offer about 10 types of firearms, among them E&C M16A4, Tercel M1911 airsoft gun and S&T Mosin Nagant Gas Rifle (Real Wood) for between RM600 and RM1,250, resembling real weapons.
This Facebook account which was opened in February received '688 likes' and showed 141 browsers having an ongoing discussion on the weapons.
A Facebook page, 'Malaysia Gun Shop' was found selling guns to Malaysians
The anonymous man had over the past week offered a range of guns and ammunition costing between RM4,000 and RM15,000. Also available were cheaper pistols for RM4,000.
An AK-47 rifle was being hawked for RM12,000 while a Smith & Wesson model (500), a single-action large calibre revolver, including two boxes of ammunition were available for RM15,000.
A check on the page by The Malay Mail on Facebook before it was taken down saw the gun salesman posting various pictures of weapons for sale. The page was only created a week ago.
The page owner, "Irwan" says he will not sell the guns to criminals
The page, which was set up by a person bearing the account name "Irwan", promises those interested that all the guns on sale are genuine and that all transactions are confidential, attracting over 100 users in just 3 days.
"Irwan", who claimed to be knowledgeable on firearms, provides picture and details on each firearm on sale including its classification, age, size and price of the weapons to gain trust from the buyers.
He defended himself by saying he would carefully choose his buyers and would not sell them to criminals.
He said he would gather the buyer's details including their IC number, HP number and their motive to buy the firearm before deciding whether to go ahead with the transaction.
Some users showed interest
A number of Facebook users have shown interest on the merchandise and left messages to ask for more information, it added.
Showing pictures of the administrator posted in Malay language mixed with English, the report said Facebook users are free to leave comment on the page or drop a private message to the administrator for details.
Other users doubt if the guns are real
Many who came across the page condemned the gun salesman, telling him that what he was doing was illegal, with some even threatening to report him to the authorities.
Some netizens questioned the authenticity of the firearms and "Irwan's" identity, "Irwan" challenged them to buy and test the weapons for themselves.
The salesman also tried to prove that he really had the guns by posting a picture of a piece of paper, dated August 12, 2013, with the name of a person who had condemned him and placing a gun beside it.
City CID chief says they are working with the cyber crime department to track the page owner
City CID chief Datuk Ku Chin Wah said police have started an investigation after being alerted to the page by Facebook users. "We initiated an investigation to track the person who created the page as soon as were alerted to it."
Ku said whether the Facebook page owner actually had the weapons, or was simply posting pictures, is still under investigation. "We are working with the cyber crime department and other authorities to track him down," he said.
Is it legal to sell guns on Facebook?
Taking out a facebook ad or promoted post on the other hand is not allowed per facebook policy.
Facebook can dictate whatever they want in regard to what is or is not allowed on "their" website. Listing a firearm for sale in a group or on your profile is stupid but allowed.

PUNXSUTAWNEY ŌĆö Improvement across the board. The junior Chucks' wrestlers recorded four falls and five wins in nine matches Tuesday afternoon against the Mountain Lions of Altoona in Punxsutawney.
Altoona claimed the match, 68-33, as Punxsy gave the visiting squad eight forfeits on the day.
"We saw a lot of improvement tonight compared to last week," noted Punxsy head coach Bill Burke. "We ended up giving them eight forfeits, and they gave only one back so we surrendered a total of 42 points due to our numbers."
BIG RUN ŌĆö The Big Run Volunteer Fire CompanyŌĆÖs "Breakfast with Santa" on Saturday not ŌĆ©only allowed children to deliver their Christmas wish lists personally to the jolly old elf, but also ŌĆ©raised funds for two Big Run-area non-profit organizations and provided everyone with a delicious breakfast.
"This is the second year for 'Breakfast with Santa,' and we collected a total of $902.60 from hungry people in the Big Run area," said Rick Smith, Big Run Area Volunteer Fire company vice ŌĆ©president.
Members of the Jefferson County Chapter of the Pennsylvania Association of School Retirees (PASR) recently enjoyed packing 50 cheerful holiday stockings that they, in turn, distributed to senior members (80 and above) throughout the area from Brockway to Falls Creek to Reynoldsville, Big Run, Brookville, Punxsutawney and other communities. Each stocking contained a small stuffed animal, a notepad and pencil, a Yuletide hand towel, twin packs of Kleenex, small chocolate bars, a fresh clementine, a holiday cup or mug and a greeting card.
Peggy Sue (Rodgers) Bailey, 54, of Clearfield, went home to be with Jesus on Monday, Dec. 17, 2012.
She was born on Nov. 7, 1958, the daughter of William S. and Judith Rodgers.
On Sept. 9, 1983, she married Joseph Bailey, who survives.
Peggy donated much time to several charitable causes and to the church over the years.
Ruth Snyder Fiscus, 82, a longtime resident of Brookville, passed away peacefully at the Laurel Brook Assisted Living Facility on Dec. 18, 2012.

She worked for 18 years at the Truckstops of America, where she made many friends throughout the years and attended the Immaculate Conception and St. Dominic Catholic churches.
She enjoyed knitting, crocheting, crossword puzzles, cooking and canning.
CLEARFIELD ŌĆö Winning can either be exciting and high scoring or lower scoring and methodical.
After racing past rival Brookville last Thursday, Punxsy grinded out a road victory, 39-29, over Clearfield on Monday night in Clearfield.
ŌĆ£It was a grind-out game. We didnŌĆÖt shoot the ball well from the perimeter but we played very good defense and had very good ball pressure,ŌĆØ noted Lady Chucks coach Randy Reitz. ŌĆ£We also did a very nice job on ClearfieldŌĆÖs big girls.ŌĆØ
PUNXSUTAWNEY ŌĆö Coming out trailing from the intermission, Punxsy turned up the second-half defensive heat to give Homer Center its first loss of the season, 64-60, Monday night in Punxsutawney.
ŌĆ£Our defense really is improving. We forced some key turnovers on their (Homer Center) end,ŌĆØ pointed out Punxsy coach Dirk Neal. ŌĆ£We hope this win can carry us a long way. It was a great team effort.ŌĆØ

In his weekly presidential address, President Obama said the abysmal jobs numbers released Friday compel the Senate to pass his stimulus bill or risk a "national catastrophe."
"Yesterday began with some devastating news with regard to our economic crisis," he said, invoking "another round of alarming employment figures -– the worst in more than 30 years. Another 600,000 jobs were lost in January. We've now lost more than 3.6 million jobs since this recession began."
That said, the president said he was "pleased to say [the day] ended on a more positive note…by the evening, Democrats and Republicans came together in the Senate and responded appropriately to the urgency this moment demands."
You can watch the address HERE or listen to the audio HERE.
President Obama then warned, "if we don't move swiftly to put this plan in motion, our economic crisis could become a national catastrophe. Millions of Americans will lose their jobs, their homes, and their health care. Millions more will have to put their dreams on hold."
Mr. Obama described his opponents as offering "tired old theories that, in eight short years, doubled the national debt, threw our economy into a tailspin, and led us into this mess in the first place" and "a losing formula that offers only tax cuts as the answer to all our problems while ignoring our fundamental economic challenges…"
Then after this shot, the president offered this note of bipartisanship, saying the American people "don't expect Democratic solutions or Republican solutions -– they expect American solutions."
After outlining some of the jobs his plan will create — he's back to saying the bill will "save or create" more than 3 million jobs over the next two years — the president concludes by saying, "Americans across this country are struggling, and they are watching to see if we're equal to the task before us. Let's show them that we are. And let's do whatever it takes to keep the promise of America alive in our time."
In the address, the president said the bill will create "16,000 [jobs] in Maine, nearly 80,000 in Indiana –- almost all of them in the private sector, and all of them jobs that help us recover today, and prosper tomorrow."
The reference to Maine — with its two GOP moderate senators, needed to pass the bill — is not a coincidence.
Mention of Indiana — where the president will visit Monday — is an unmistakable reference to Hoosier GOP Sen. Dick Lugar, an Obama friend whom Democrats have also targeted for his vote.

The third title in Barrie Summy's tween mystery series!
What's better than a sleepover? A sleepover with makeovers! Sherry and her friends are having an awesome time with eye shadow, glitter, and more hair products than a salon. But when the girls wake up the next morning with serious skin issues, Sherry is freaked. Someone tampered with her makeup!
It turns out that the mall's cosmetics kiosk—where Junie's cousin Amber works—has had lots of products returned by upset customers. Sherry's determined to get to the bottom of things. After all, she's become a bit of a crime-solving celebrity (well, at least in the spirit world). Ghost academies around the world are impressed by Sherry and her ghost mom's skills.
And if anyone can solve a mystery involving mascara, it's Sherry Holmes Baldwin.

College of Agriculture Animal & Range Sci Dept More Info.
by Don Hudson, D.V.M., R. Gene White, D.V.M, University of Nebraska
* Editorial Note: This article was presented in the Beef Questions and Answers newsletter, Montana Beef Network.
"Calf scours is not a disease--it is a clinical sign of a disease which can have many causes."
Calf scours or calf diarrhea causes more financial loss to cow-calf producers than any other disease- related problem they encounter.
Calf scours is not a disease--it is a clinical sign of a disease which can have many causes. In diarrheas, the intestine fails to absorb fluids and/or secretion into the intestine is increased.
A calf is approximately 70 percent water at birth. Loss of body fluids through diarrhea can produce rapid dehydration. Dehydration and the loss of certain body salts (electrolytes) produce a change in body chemistry and severe depression in the calf. Although infectious agents may be the cause of primary damage to the intestine, death from scours is usually due to loss of electrolytes, changes in body chemistry, dehydration, and change in acid-base balance rather than by invasion of an infectious agent. The infectious agent that causes scours is important, however, from the standpoint of prevention.
The age of the calf when scours begins is an important consideration in its survival. The younger the calf, the greater the chance of death.
Recent research has indicated that many scour cases can be directly related to colostrum intake by the newborn calf. A calf that is well mothered and consumes 1 to 2 quarts of colostrum in the first few hours after birth absorbs a higher level of antibodies. This calf is far less susceptible to scours and other calf hood diseases.
Viral Scours
Rotavirus Scours. A reo-like virus can cause scours in calves within 24 hours of birth. However, when the infection- is first introduced into the herd, it can affect calves up to 30 days of age or older. Infected calves are severely depressed. There may be a drooling of saliva and profuse watery diarrhea. The feces will vary in color from yellow to green. Calves lose their appetite and the death rate may be as high as 50 percent, depending on the secondary bacteria present.
Diagnosis depends on an accurate history, clinical signs, and proper specimen collection and submission to a laboratory. The reo-like virus infection alone causes no diagnostic gross lesions in the intestine, but there is an increased volume of fluid in both the small and large intestine.
Coronavirus Scours. Scours caused by coronavirus occurs in calves that are over 5 days of age. When the infection first starts in a herd, calves up to 6 weeks of age may scour. These calves are not as depressed as those infected Calf Scours: Causes, Prevention and Treatment Don Hudson, D.V.M.., R. Gene White, D.V.M, University of Nebraska with rotavirus. Initially, the fecal material may have the same appearance as that caused by rotavirus. As the calf continues to scour for several hours, however, the fecal material may contain clear mucus that resembles the white of an egg. Diarrhea may continue for several days. Mortality from coronavirus scours ranges from 1 to 25 percent.
Gross lesions are not significant. The intestine is often full of liquid feces. If lesions are observed in the intestine, they are the result of secondary bacterial infection.
Treatment for coronavirus scours is the same as that for rotavirus scours. Many herds have been found to be infected with both the rota- and corona viruses.
A vaccine that is specific for the rota- and coronaviruses is available. It can be administered in one of two ways: orally to the calf soon after birth; or as a vaccination to the pregnant cow. The first year that a vaccination program is started in the beef cow herd, the cow receives two vaccinations--the first at 6 to 12 weeks before calving, and the second as close to calving as possible. The next year, the cows are given a booster vaccination just before calving. In herds where the calving period extends over more than 6 to 8 weeks, cows that have not calved at the end of a 6-week period should receive a second booster vaccination. Following this procedure insures that the calf receives a high level of rota- and coronavirus antibodies in the colostrum. However, the calf must receive adequate colostrum, preferably within the first 4 hours after birth as the antibodies cannot be absorbed later than 24 hours after birth. This cow vaccination program fits well into a beef cow herd health program and helps prevent virus build-up in the herd.
Diagnosis of Rota- and Coronavirus Scours. Accurate diagnosis of viral scours can be made only by laboratory tests. Your veterinarian knows what material to submit for examination.
Bovine Virus Diarrhea. The virus of bovine virus diarrhea can cause diarrhea and death in young calves. Diarrhea begins 2 to 3 days after exposure and may persist for quite a long time. Ulcers on the tongue, lips, and in the mouth are the usual lesions that can be found in the live calf. These lesions are similar to those found in yearlings and adult animals affected with bovine virus diarrhea.
Diagnosis is by history, lesions, and diagnostic laboratory assistance. Treatment is similar to that used for other viral scours. Bovine virus diarrhea is controlled by vaccinating all replacement heifers 1 to 2 months before breeding. Caution: do not vaccinate pregnant heifers or cows with modified live virus. Consult your veterinarian before starting a bovine virus diarrhea vaccination program.
Bacterial Scours
Escherichia coli (Colibacillosis). Escherichia coli (E. coli) has been incriminated as a major cause of scours. Many times this is the only organism identified following routine bacteriologic culturing. Certain E. coli can cause diarrhea. Many different serotypes (kinds) of E. coli have been identified; some cause scours while others do not. E. coli is always present in the intestinal tract and is usually the agent that causes a secondary infection following viral agents or other intestinal irritants.
E. coli scours is characterized by diarrhea and progressive dehydration. Death may occur in a few hours before diarrhea develops. The color and consistency of the feces are of little value in making a diagnosis of any type of diarrhea. The course varies from 2 to 4 days, and severity depends on age of the calf when scours starts and on the particular serotype of E. coli.
Upon postmortem examination, lesions are nonspecific. However, the small intestine may be filled with fluid and the large intestine may contain yellowish feces.
Diagnosis depends on an accurate history, clinical signs, and culture of internal organs for bacteria and serotyping of the organism. The location at which the culture from the intestine was taken is also important. Control of E. coli scours can be difficult in a severe herd outbreak. All calves should receive colostrum as soon after birth as possible. This helps the calf resist E. coli infection. Early isolation and treatment of scours helps to prevent new cases. There are new E. coli cow vaccines now on the market. These vaccines contain the K99 antigen which should give immunity to many types of E. coli. The vaccine is administered 6 weeks and 3 weeks prior to calving. The new E. coli vaccine is also available in combination with the rota- and coronavirus vaccine. This vaccination builds high antibody levels in the colostrum, but the calf must get colostrum in the first few hours of life for the vaccine to be effective.
Salmonella. There are more than 1000 types of salmonella, all of which are potential disease producers. Salmonella produces a potent endotoxin (poison) within its own cells. Animals may be more severely depressed following treatment with antibiotics as treatment causes the salmonella organisms to release the endotoxin, producing shock. Therefore, treatment should be designed to combat endotoxic shock.
Calves are usually affected at 6 days of age or older. This age corresponds very closely to the age of the coronavirus infection. The source of salmonella infection in a herd can be from other cattle, birds, cats, rodents, the water supply, or a human carrier.
Clinical signs associated with salmonella infection include diarrhea, blood and fibrin in the feces, depression, and elevated temperature. The disease is more severe in young or debilitated calves. Finding a membrane-like coating in the intestine on necropsy is strong presumptive evidence that salmonella might be involved. Salmonella isolations should be checked by a bacteriologic sensitivity test to determine the antibiotics of choice.
Enterotoxemia. Enterotoxemia can be highly fatal to young calves. It is caused by toxins produced by Clostridium perfringens organisms. There are 6 types of Clostridium perfringens that can produce toxins, of which types B, C, and D appear to be the most important in calves.
The disease has a sudden onset. Affected calves become listless, display uneasiness, and strain or kick at their abdomen. Bloody diarrhea may or may not occur. It is usually associated with a change in weather, a change in feed of the cows, or management practices that cause the calf to not nurse for a longer period of time than usual. The hungry calf may over-consume milk which establishes a media in the gut that is conducive to the growth and production of toxins by the clostridial organisms. In many cases, calves may die without clinical signs being observed.
Postmortem lesions may be a hemorrhagic intestinal tract; thus, the common name, "purple gut." In the small intestine, there may be large hemorrhagic or bloody, purplish areas where the tissue looks dead. This is usually attributed to type C. Types B and D may produce diarrhea without the usual postmortem lesions. Diagnosis of these toxins is by finding the toxin in the small intestine by laboratory methods. This toxin breaks down rather rapidly so the contents of the intestinal tract must be collected very soon after death and preserved by freezing. Finding lesions of hemorrhagic enteritis at postmortem in a calf that has died suddenly is basis for a tentative diagnosis.
This disease is best controlled by vaccinating the cows with Clostridium perfringens toxoid 60 and 30 days before calving. A single booster dose of toxoid should be given annually thereafter before calving. If this problem is diagnosed in calves from nonimmunized cows, antitoxin can be given to the calf. Administration of antitoxin and oral antibiotics is the only treatment that is effective.
Other Causes of Scours
Coccidiosis. Coccidiosis is caused by one-celled parasites that invade the intestinal tract of animals. There are many species of coccidia. Two, Eimeria zurnii and Eimeria bovis, are usually associated with clinical infections in cattle. Coccidiosis has been observed in calves 3 weeks of age and older, usually following stress, poor sanitation, overcrowding or sudden changes of feed. It often occurs in calves 7 to 14 days after they are moved from the calving lots onto pasture.
Clinical coccidiosis is diagnosed by finding significant numbers of parasites in the feces. The results of the fecal examination must be related to the clinical signs and intestinal lesions. Occasionally, clinical coccidiosis will be present with bleeding and very few parasites in the fecal material.
Laboratory examination of sections of the intestine may be required for diagnosis. A typical sign of coccidiosis in young calves is diarrhea with fecal material smeared over the rump as far around as the tail will reach. This may or may not contain blood. Death may occur during the acute period or later from secondary complications.
Sulfonamides have been the treatment of choice for coccidiosis for many years. If treatment is given before signs appear, the disease can largely be prevented. Amprolium has been cleared for use in calves as a preventative. This should be supplied at the rate of 5 mg/kg of body weight for a period of 21 days to cover the time period during which this disease is anticipated. Good feeding practices, management, and sanitation are the control methods of choice.
Cryptosporidium. Cryptosporidium is a protozoan parasite that is much smaller than coccidia. It has the ability to adhere to the cells that line the small intestine and to damage the microvilli. Several reports from researchers and diagnosticians have associated cryptosporidium with outbreaks of calf scours. As a rule, cryptosporidium is detected in combination with coronavirus, rotavirus, and/or E. coli. Calves infected by cryptosporidium have ranged from 1 to 3 weeks in age.
Nutritional Scours
Under range conditions, a calf adapts a pattern of nursing that fills his needs. Nutritional scours can be caused by anything that disrupts this normal habit. A storm, strong wind, or the mother going off hunting for new grass disrupts the normal nursing pattern. When the hungry calf does get an opportunity to nurse, the cow's udder may contain more milk than normal and the calf may overeat resulting in a nutritional scours. Erratic nursing patterns may also be conducive to enterotoxemia. Nutritional scours is usually white scours caused by undigested milk passing through the intestinal tract.
This type of scours usually presents little problem in treatment. If the affected calves are still active and alert, no treatment is required. If the calf becomes depressed or fails to nurse, it should be treated. Oral antibiotics can be used as a treatment.
Treatment of Calf Scours
Treatment for scours is very similar regardless of the cause. It should be directed toward correcting the dehydration, acidosis, and electrolyte loss. Antibiotic treatment can be given simultaneously with the treatment for dehydration. Dehydration can be overcome with simple fluids given by mouth early in the course of the disease. If dehydration is allowed to continue, intravenous fluid treatment becomes necessary. The clinical signs of dehydration first occur when the fluid loss reaches 5 to 6 percent of the body weight. Ten percent loss of fluid results in depression, sunken eyes, dry skin, and the calf will probably be unable to stand. A 15 percent loss of fluids usually results in death. Oral fluids used early in the scouring process have been quite successful. Consult your veterinarian for electrolytes to be given orally. There are dry electrolyte powders available that can be mixed with water for oral administration.
If electrolyte powders are not available, there are three solutions for oral administration that can be prepared on the ranch:
Do not overfeed! Administer up to 1 quart of any of these three solutions every 3 to 4 hours, depending upon the degree of dehydration and fluid loss. These solutions can be used as the only source of nutrients for a period of 24 to 48 hours. Do not use milk or milk replacers during this period, as milk in the intestinal tract makes an ideal medium for bacteria such as E. coli to grow. Return the calf to the cow, which has been previously milked out, as soon as the calf is able to follow its mother.
Giving electrolytes orally is always a problem unless the calf will nurse from a bottle. There is an esophageal probe available which works very well for administering oral fluids to calves. This device, or a stomach tube, should be used when giving calves large amounts of fluids. If using a stomach tube, do not go into the stomach with the tube as this puts the material in the nondeveloped rumen rather than into the true stomach where it should be administered. To avoid the rumen, insert only 18 inches of the stomach tube into the calf's mouth.
Antibiotics should be used both orally and by injection whenever treating calves for diarrhea. In acute salmonellosis outbreaks, antibiotics may cause the release of excess endotoxins; therefore, consideration should be given to using fluid therapy only.
Ear tag treated calves for identification and keep a daily record on the treatment administered. This aids in evaluating the treatment and utilizing follow-up treatments as necessary. Valuable information can be obtained by having the cows identified and identifying each calf at birth. If an outbreak of scours occurs, persistent treatment and records are essential for doing a good job.
Scour problems are an ever-existing threat to baby calves. A good program of adequate nutrition, sanitation, management and a good herd health program are necessary to minimize the incidence and losses. Early diagnosis and treatment will reduce the threat of a herd outbreak. The correct diagnosis is also very important when considering vaccinations and other procedures for the cow herd the next calving season. Calf Scours, from p. 9

Jedward: A Fairy Tale
Once there was a Dublin hospital,
A sullen, Nightingale institute,
Whose 1980s walls would house a miracle,
And sprout embryos who would come to repute.
Two princes born to mother, Louis Walsh
Lay vulnerable and crying for their fame,
But before they could suckle, the angels
Were baptised with their Siamese stage name:
John + Edward = Jedward.
