The American LegionLaunches New Fundraising and Awareness Campaign by Daniel S. Wheeler, National Adjutant The American Legion is launching a national awareness campaign to raise funds to help our organization assist veterans, their families, young people and communities. The first installment of that campaign will focus on the mental health needs of veterans, particularly those who are battling the signature wounds of today's war era: PTSD and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Because these messages will air nationally and before audiences that may be unfamiliar with The American Legion and its services, you may receive calls, visits and other correspondences from veterans in need,or their families. If the request is routine, please handle as you usually would, as being a service organization. If the need is urgent, refer the veteran or family member to a VA emergency support service, such as: Suicide prevention hotline: 800-273-8255, press 1. Texting service: 838255 Online chat service: www.VeteransCrisisLine.net If a veteran comes to you or your post as a result of the message, please be welcoming and helpful. Offer him or her the services of the nearest accredited American Legion service officer, who can easily be found online at www.legion.org/serviceofficers or connect the veteran to local resources through your post service officer or other members. Please feel free to contact Chuck Krupa, Managing Director of Non-Member Fundraising at 317-860-3030 or email@example.com if you have any further questions.--- --- --- --- ---

American Legion PostsNow have a guaranteed way to raise big money playing Bingoby Jesse James, Area 5 Finance Commissioner Taking something old and making it new again….bingo…or in 2014 we like to call it Remote Caller Bingo or Linked Bingo. This new method of playing traditional bingo provides a way for American Legion bingo halls to make guaranteed money on their paper and allows players to win much greater prize money. This works because all American Legion Posts are playing the same game at the same time as if they were in the same room—thanks to a new innovative technology that broadcasts the ball calling of the game to everyone at precisely the same moment. For the participants, the bingo game is played in the traditional manner with paper and bingo markers (aka daubers). The biggest difference for the players is the amount of prize money that can be won by a single player. Where charities playing traditional bingo are limited to paying out a couple hundred dollars on a single game, Bingo Innovations of California, Inc. can help their participating charities payout an unlimited amount of prize money, potentially reaching thousands of dollars on a single game. The great advantage for the charity bingo hall is how much easier it is to attract players when large prize money is at stake. In addition, the new California law that allows Remote Caller Bingo was designed to insure that the charities receive no less than 43% of the games gross receipts. This is the highest legislative mandated payout for any charity bingo in the entire United States. Because the game is pari-mutual, there is no risk of any kind for each American Legion post. There is a profit for the charity bingo hall in every game played. For those locations that already play a traditional bingo game, you know that having a guaranteed 43% revenue of your card sales is unheard of. What's even better…the American Legion Veterans Affairs & Rehabilitation Foundation now has a statewide license—so individual American Legion posts no longer have to deal with the state's "red-tape" of becoming licensed, they can play under the statewide license already issued. To get more information on how your post can link in with other American Legion Posts statewide and start raising much needed funds, please contact Bingo Innovations of California, Inc. (909) 948-2033 or Email: firstname.lastname@example.com or visit www. Remotecallerbingo.com--- --- --- --- ---

Mustangs race past Bluff to win Sinton volleyball tournament
King's sweep of Flour Bluff is second in week
SINTON - SINTON — King isn't wasting any time this season returning to its dominant ways.
The Mustangs swept Flour Bluff for the second time in less than a week, winning the championship of the Sinton Varsity Classic Volleyball Tournament on Saturday night.
Class 6A King never trailed in beating the Class 5A Hornets 25-13, 25-18 in the championship match.
"We knew they were coming to get us," King first-year coach Casey Chancellor-Pesek said of the rematch against Flour Bluff. "The girls fought hard and I couldn't ask anything more from them. They did great."
The Mustangs, who missed the playoffs last season, are looking for their volleyball program to return to its glory days of 2010 when they went to the Class 5A state tournament.
This was another step in the right direction, as King made a statement at the tournament by beating Coastal Bend area volleyball powers Flour Bluff and Sinton — the Mustangs beat the Pirates 25-22, 20-25, 26-24 in the tournament semifinals earlier Saturday.
"It's awesome," Chancellor-Pesek said. "It's good to finally get that belief back. We (now) realize how good we are and how good we can be. We have that confidence level back."
Flour Bluff coach Kara Wallace has also noticed a big difference in the Mustangs this season compared to last year.
"They've got a great team," Wallace said. "They get a touch on every single ball and they run a much faster offense this year. They work really well and move really well (together) as a team."
King (10-4) jumped out to a 16-5 lead in the first set against the Hornets. Flour Bluff used an 8-4 run to close to within 20-13 before the Mustangs scored the final five points of the set to take it. King middle blocker Virginia Preiss, who was the tournament's MVP, pounded key back-to-back kills and hitter Claire Frazier had an ace to help cap that run.
The Hornets (10-4) trimmed a seven-point deficit to three in the second set on setter Valerie Van Brunt's ace. The Mustangs countered with a kill by Frazier, an ace by libero Lauren Powers and another emphatic kill by hitter Roteria Taylor to help rebuild its lead to 16-9, which it wouldn't relinquish.
"She's definitely a great player," Wallace said of Taylor. "She can change the momentum for their team in a split second. When she gets a hold of the ball, she can put it down."
Preiss had four of her match-best nine kills in the opening set. She was one of four King players — hitter Mikayla Marroquin, Frazier and Taylor were the others — with two kills or more in that first set.
Taylor, who also made the all-tournament team, and Frazier also combined for 16 kills in the match for the Mustangs, who also got seven kills from Marroquin.
Setter Alyssa Ramirez led King with 34 assists in the match.
"We're excited," Chancellor-Pesek said, "The girls believe that they can do it and they did it. I just hope we can carry this momentum into district."
All-tournament selection and middle blocker Kianna Young and hitters Mia Valdez and Keely Smith combined for 10 kills in the match for the Hornets, who beat Tuloso-Midway 25-18, 25-14 in the semifinals earlier Saturday to make it to the title match.
"We're going to use it as a learning experience," Wallace said of the loss in the finals. "We start district at home Tuesday against T-M."
Tuloso-Midway held off Sinton 25-23, 23-25, 25-23 to take third place in the tournament.
The Cherokees (12-2) scored the final four points of the third set after rallying from a 23-21 deficit against the Pirates (9-7).
Hitter Shelby Stipp's key kill and an impressive dig over the net that resulted in a point by libero and all-tournament member Analysa Gonzales highlighted that key run to help T-M take the decisive set and the match.

The idea that we can ever separate moral issues from fiscal issues is a serious error. There is a moral basis to every political and social concern, including economics.The Republican Party is once again at a crossroad.

CHESAPEAKE, VA (Catholic Online) - I write as a private citizen and a reluctant Republican. I left the Democratic Party many years ago, after its leadership was taken over by the current morally incoherent coalition of social and cultural engineers. However, I am concerned about some in the current leadership of the Republican Party retreating from defending the moral foundations of a free society.
We are living under the effects of what Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger (now Pope Benedict XVI) once called a Dictatorship of Relativism. Relativism is a philosophy which says there are no truths. When there is nothing objectively true - which can be known by all and form the basis of our common life - then there is no basis for true freedom. Freedom can never be realized, nor can it flourish, unless it is exercised in reference to choosing the true and the good.
As a Nation we have lost our moral compass and, as a result, we are dangerously close to losing our freedom. When a society fails to recognize that persons are more important than things, when it loses sight of the primacy of the inviolable dignity of every single human person at every age, every stage and of every size, it soon devolves into a form of practical materialism, worshipping a new golden calf. It uses the language of human rights but has lost its true moral content.
I write on the evening of the fortieth anniversary of the horrid US Supreme Court decisions of Roe v Wade and Doe v Bolton. Those two decisions opened the floodgates to the killing of nearly sixty million children through legal abortion. When there is no recognition of a preeminent right to life, there soon follows an erosion of the entire structure of all human rights. Human rights do not exist in a vacuum; they are goods of the human person.
There is a hierarchy of rights. Without acknowledging the preeminent right to life, all derivative rights and the entire infrastructure of human rights is placed in jeopardy. Without the freedom to be born, all of the talk about compassion for the poor and the promotion of freedom throughout the entirety of life, and how we attain it, is hollow and empty.
Failing to recognize that our first neighbors in the womb have a right to be born and live a full life in our community is a foundational failure of our obligation in solidarity to one another and the entire ethic of being our brothers (and sisters) keeper. There can be no enduring lasting solidarity in a culture that kills its own children and then calls it a right. We face a moral crisis in America, and a serious leadership crisis which flows directly from it.
In 1994 Mother Teresa put it clearly: "America needs no words from me to see how your decision in Roe v. Wade has deformed a great nation. The so-called right to abortion has pitted mothers against their children and women against men. It has sown violence and discord at the heart of the most intimate human relationships. It has aggravated the derogation of the father's role in an increasingly fatherless society. It has portrayed the greatest of gifts -- a child -- as a competitor, an intrusion, and an inconvenience."
"It has nominally accorded mothers unfettered dominion over the independent lives of their physically dependent sons and daughters. And, in granting this unconscionable power, it has exposed many women to unjust and selfish demands from their husbands or other sexual partners. Human rights are not a privilege conferred by government. They are every human being's entitlement by virtue of his humanity. The right to life does not depend, and must not be declared to be contingent, on the pleasure of anyone else, not even a parent or a sovereign."
In addition to defending Life we must also defend authentic marriage against those who seek to redefine it out of existence. Marriage and family have been inscribed by the Divine Architect into the order of the universe. Truth does not change, people and cultures do; sometimes for good and sometimes for evil. Marriage is the first society into which children are to be born, learn to be fully human, grow in virtue, flourish and take their role in families and communities.
Children have a right to a mother and a father. Of course we should care about the single parent family and the many broken homes. However, their existence does not change the norm necessary for a stable and healthy society. In tact marriages and families are the glue of a healthy and happy social order.
Morally based positions are not simply religious. They are based upon a Natural Moral Law which can be known by all men and women through the exercise of reason. Acknowledging the existence of such a Natural Moral Law is the ground upon which every great civilization has been built. It is the source for every great and authentic human and civil rights movement.
We recently commemorated Dr Martin Luther King Jr. as a Nation. He was an evangelical protestant minister and a heroic champion of human rights. His Letter from a Birmingham Jail is an example of how reliance on the Natural Law is the ground of true freedom. Dr King wrote:
"There are two types of laws: just and unjust. I would be the first to advocate obeying just laws. One has not only a legal but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws. I would agree with St. Augustine that "an unjust law is no law at all."
"Now, what is the difference between the two? How does one determine whether a law is just or unjust? A just law is a man-made code that squares with the moral law or the law of God. An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law."
"To put it in the terms of St. Thomas Aquinas: An unjust law is a human law that is not rooted in eternal law and natural law. Any law that uplifts human personality is just. Any law that degrades human personality is unjust. All segregation statutes are unjust because segregation distorts the soul and damages the personality."
The Natural Law gives us the moral norms we need to build just societies and govern ourselves. It must also inform the positive law of a Nation or it becomes lawless and devolves into anarchy. It loses its moral ground. Sadly, America is at just such a crossroads. Our greatest challenge as a Nation is a moral challenge. We need men and women in to run for office and govern who are unafraid to acknowledge this fact.
As I survey the current state of the Republican Party I am convinced that it is at a place similar to the crossroads it faced in the 1970's. In 1977 at the 4th Annual Conservative Political Action Convention, a man named Ronald Reagan gave a speech in which he called for a New Republican Party. In that speech, which can be read in its entirety here, he asked whether:
"The time has come to see if it is possible to present a program of action based on political principle that can attract those interested in the so-called "social" issues and those interested in "economic" issues. In short, isn't it possible to combine the two major segments of contemporary American conservatism into one politically effective whole?"
I remember first reading that speech in the early 1980's. It was during that decade that I made my transition from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party. The last democratic candidate for the presidency I supported was the late, former Governor of Pennsylvania, Bob Casey (the father not the son). This heroic and truly Pro-Life Democrat was denied a speaking role at the 1992 Democratic nomination convention because of his defense of the Right to life.
The late Governor wrote a marvelous book entitled "Fighting for Life", which I still have on my shelf. It should be read by anyone who wants to be exposed to a truly Pro-Life Democrat because they are an endangered species. The book details the censorship of the Governors speaking role at the 1992 Democratic convention and the Governors courage in the face of those who sold out that once great Party.
Governor Bob Casey wrote concerning legalized abortion: "It's hard to think of anything more foreign to the principles of the Democratic Party or the whole American experience. Far from being "inclusive", it excludes an entire class of fellow human beings from our care and protection. It's the only "constitutional right" we're ashamed of, avoiding the word abortion with contorted euphemisms like "reproductive rights" and "termination" and "evacuation".
"Far from liberating women, abortion has become a lucrative industry, exploiting young women beyond anything ever imagined. When pregnancy comes at a difficult time, which is the worthier response of society: To surround mother and child alike with protection and love, or to hold out the cold comfort of an abortion clinic? Where is America's true character to be seen- in an adoptive home or at the abortion clinic? In which role is a woman more empowered - giving life or taking it?
"These are questions that rest uneasily on the conscience of today's Democratic Party. We have traded our principles for power - the fleeting power offered by loud and well financed factions like NARAL and Planned Parenthood. We can choose to extend once again the mantle of protection to all members of the human family, including the unborn. We can choose to provide effective care of mothers and children."
To me and many others my age (58) and background (blue collar Catholics and others of our ilk) the censoring of Governor Bob Casey from speaking at that 1992 Democratic convention because of his support of the rights of all people including our first neighbors in the womb was wrong and caused me to leave the once great Party of the working poor, middle class and disenfranchised with which I used to be affiliated.
It was Ronald Reagan - his views, his character, his courage and his manner - which drew me into the Republican Party. He attempted to build a coherent political party. An example of his morally coherent leadership can be read in his wonderful Abortion and the Conscience of the Nation here. The idea that we can ever separate moral issues from fiscal issues is a serious error. There is a moral basis to every political and social concern, including economics.
The Republican Party is once again at a crossroad. What is needed is a New Republican Party and New Republican Party candidates for this hour. I am looking for such men and women. When I find them, I intend to do all I can to help them get elected. I recently wrote about such a candidate, E.W. Jackson, in an article entitled "Let Liberty Light the Way: EW Jackson Becomes a Candidate for Lieutenant Governor of Virginia."
E.W. Jackson seeks to secure the nomination and campaign at the side of the gubernatorial candidate, Ken Cuccinelli in my chosen home of Virginia. I end with an example of why I believe that E.W. Jackson is just the kind of "New Republican" needed in this hour. Here is a Press Release he sent out on the day when we remember Roe v Wade.
Jackson Statement on the 40th Anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court Roe v. Wade Decision
E.W. Jackson, Candidate for Lieutenant Governor of Virginia, released the following statement in acknowledgement of the 40th anniversary of United States Supreme Court decisions Roe v Wade and Doe v Bolton, which deny unborn children the Right to Life:
"I join with the millions of Americans who remember the nearly sixty million children who are not with us, who are dead because of legalized abortion. Every abortion takes the innocent life of a neighbor in the womb. Whether we will be a nation that respects the Right to Life is the most fundamental issue of our time.
"The Right to Life is the first right, without which there are no other rights. Forty years ago, with the stroke of a judicial pen, seven Justices of the United States Supreme Court consigned an entire class of persons to the status of property. This is the not the first time in our history we have made that terrible mistake.
"Yesterday, my wife and I hosted a breakfast which celebrated the life and values of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Dr. King awakened the conscience of the nation by reminding us of the self-evident truth that all human beings, no matter how invisible we try to make them, have human dignity and worth and the unalienable right to life. Protecting that right is the first duty of civil government and the true mark of civilization.
"As Lieutenant Governor of Virginia I will do all I can to ensure that the Commonwealth of Virginia shines bright the light of life and liberty for all, including children in the womb."

The Methodist Church of Indiana founded Franklin United Methodist Community in the early 1950's.
The original FUMC was made possible by many individual, church, and business contributions. The cornerstone of the central building, the Wesley Center, was laid in 1955. The close ties of the community to the church provide security in knowing that board members, administration, staff, residents, and volunteers are committed to continuing the tradition of quality service at FUMC. Likewise, it allows residents and their families to feel comfortable with the long-standing fiscal responsibility demonstrated over the last five decades.

|Andrea was great in seasons 1-2, much like Darcy Byrnes has been in these last two seasons, a naturally-acting young lady. But in season 3, well, I disagree with you, Zazawie, cos that's when she started shaking her head left and right like a bobblehead with every word she said. When Julie gained an attitude, she also gained an annoying tick. I remember her being really good in the teaser for 6.07, when Julie confided in Lynette. And if you rewatch 8.18, I think you'll notice the little weird things about Shawn's acting. I love Mitzi Kinsky! I totally want to see her again.

Sorry, I just don't see it, not on DH (except for some performances I liked, in 4.05,4.09,4.14,4.17,6.01,6.10,6.15,6.16) and certainly not on BoP. But to her defense I loved her work on Pasadena. But that was about a decade ago. Also saw this TV movie "Baby for Sale" and she was tragic in it. Really. I think she is overrated.

|As for Teri, there's only one scene of hers I didn't particularly like, which was when, in 5.21, she told Jackson through the bathroom door that she loved him. But Marc Cherry thought her acting was genius, and I guess it was indeed meant to be melodramatic and exaggerated, so she probably did do something great there. She might indeed be the best of the cast.

|Btw, I think Dana Delany is not the best actress either. At least on DH. Crying is really not acting, only a simple technique thaught at a Drama School and she seemed to have used it quite a lot during those 3 seasons she was on. And her comedic skills are none existing (episode 5.06 her scene with Bree the morning after she had sex with that ex-con Peter who was selling kidneys her acting was terrible in that scene, so fake and unnatural). But her acting was 25% on DH, she was either crying or fake-smiling. And she practically fake-smiles on "Body of Proof" all the time and it is annoying.
I really wished Felicity got some good scenes, she a brilliant actressbut her talentsarent being used. 1.08 and 3.07 are obvious examples of her great skills, but i've never felt that shes a very good comedic actress. I think Eva had to learn to do Drama, because she was great in last season, but I never really liked early on forexamplethat scene in Season 2 when the police were taking Lily away, I just thought Eva wasnt quite ready for the power of that scene.
I think Teri and Marcia are excellent actresses, they both can do comedy and drama very well. Marcia is funny in her own way, because Bree isnt funny, but she does serious funny things, I cant really explain it. I dont think Teri is melodramatic, its just Susan being melodramatic. Marcia was best in Season 2, she was funny and serious in 2x09, and I love it when she confronts Matthew in 2x24. Shes also been brilliant this season. Teridoesphysical comedy and drama brilliantly.Susan is my second favourite main housewife. For example, I loved her in Season 6, because she had the pain of Julie being strangled and crazy Katherine, but she had some hilarious material later in the season like when she was trying to get her money back in 6x22. She is the best physical comedian on the show.

The use of various pyrethroid compounds is disclosed for the treatment of the immature phases of sea lice in sea water fish, such as salmon, and for the prophylaxis of adult sea lice infestation in such fish. Cypermethrin, high-cis-cypermethrin, lambda-cyhalothrin and deltamethrin are shown to be most effective.
1. A method for the treatment of the chalimus and copepodid phases of sea lice infestation of fish said method comprising administering to fish in need of said treatment a pyrethroid compound in an amount effective to reduce the number of said chalimus and copepodid phases of sea lice on the treated fish.
2. A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein said pyrethroid compound is selected from the group consisting of Cypermethrin, high-cis-cypermethrin, lambda-cyhalothrin or deltamethrin.

11. A method as claimed in claim 9, wherein said concentration is between 0.5 μg/l and 100 μg/l.
12. A method for the prophylaxis of pre-adult and adult sea lice infestation of fish, said method comprising administering to fish in need of said prophylaxis a pyrethroid compound in an amount effective to retard said pre-adult and adult sea lice development in said fish.
This is a 371 of PCT/GB95/02153 filed Sep. 8, 1995.
This invention relates to the control of sea lice in fish, such as salmon.
Infestation of salmon with sea lice is a recognised problem. Salmon are infected by free swimming immature sea lice in the copeopodid phase of development, which attach themselves to the body of the fish by hooked antennas. Once attached to the fish, the lice develop through four immature chalimus phases before becoming pre-adults about 2-3 weeks after the initial infestation. During the chalimus phases, the lice attach themselves to the fish by frontal filaments, and though they feed on the fish, they do not cause extensive damage. During their final pre-adult and adult phases of development, the lice attach themselves to the body of the fish by suction and graze over its surface, especially the head, back and peri-anal areas, causing extensive damage and ultimately death.
A number of treatments have been used to control sea lice in the past, most notably dichlorvos, azamethiphos and hydrogen peroxide treatment baths. A common feature of these known treatments is that they are effective only against mature lice (i.e. lice in the pre-adult and adult phases), and are ineffective against lice in immature phases of development. Hydrogen peroxide has been suggested by some workers to have a limited effect against immature lice, but this effect is slight compared to its effect on mature lice.
The reason for this selective activity is not known but it is thought likely to be due in some way to the substantial differences in anatomy and metabolism between the immature (copeopodid and chalimus) and mature (pre-adult and adult) lice. One theory is that differences in respiration are responsible, but this has not been fully substantiated. Whatever the underlying reasons for the selectivity, it remains an empirical rule that the conventional topical treatments are effective only against mature lice, with the resultant drawback that infested fish require repeated and frequent treatments in order to kill the lice as and when they mature.
We have now identified a group of compounds that are effective for controlling immature as well as mature sea lice. The compounds concerned are the pyrethroids, for example Cypermethrin (3-(2,2-Dichloroethenyl)-2,2-dimethyl-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid cyano (3-phenoxyphenyl)-methyl ester). We have already suggested the use of these compounds for the control of sea lice in our international patent application, published as WO 92/16106, but it was previously thought that the compounds were effective only for mature lice, and the tests described in our earlier application utilised mature lice exclusively. Because of the known resistance of immature lice to all known conventional bath treatments for mature lice, the identification of a group of compounds which is effective when used topically against both mature and immature lice is surprising. It is also of significant practical importance, in that a single treatment will affect substantially all of the lice present on the fish, whether mature or immature, thereby reducing the frequency with which treatments need to be made. This in turn leads to a saving in labour, a decrease in environmental contamination, and the minimising of stress to the fish.
The present invention therefore provides the use of a pyrethroid compound for the manufacture of a composition for the treatment of the immature phases of sea lice infestation of fish.
Alternatively, the invention provides the use of a pyrethroid compound for the manufacture of a composition for the prophylaxis of pre-adult and adult sea lice infestation of fish.
The invention is hereinafter described by way of example only, with reference to the following experimental trials and the accompanying figures which illustrate the results of the trials.
FIGS. 1, 2A, 2B, and 3 show the effectiveness of pyrethroids against the immature stages of sea lice.
Trial 1 was carried out at the Marine Harvest International research establishment at Loch Eil, Inverness-shire. The fish used in the trial were mixed sex Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar), of the "Marine Harvest M6" strain, aged approximately 28 months, and weighing approximately 3 kg each.
316 study fish were submitted to a pre-study veterinary examination and found to be suitable to participate in the study. The fish were held in a single holding cage in Loch Eil and were fed the same commercial fish feed (Fulmar Expanded Salmon Feed, Super Energy Salmon) for the ten days leading up to the study period, and throughout the duration of the study, therefore ensuring that no acclimatisation problems arose. Feed was thrown onto the surface of the water in the cage at a rate of approximately 0.5% bodyweight daily. On the day prior to treatment 15 fish were examined and counted for major phases of sea lice (chalimus, pre-adult and adult) and the mean counts taken as representative of the pre-treatment levels. The remaining 301 fish were then divided into six similar groups, five containing 50 fish each, and the sixth 51 (the extra fish resulted from a miscount, which was discovered during the trial, but was considered to be insignificant). Care was taken to ensure that all groups were as similar as possible in terms of weight and lice numbers.
Each group of fish was placed in an individual experimental sea cage measuring 5m �5m �4m (depth) and constructed of nylon mesh nets. The cages were anchored in Loch Eil and open to the sea. Three of the groups were designated as treatment groups and three as control groups.
The treatment groups were each subjected to treatment with Cypermethrin at a concentration of 100 μg/l for one hour. During treatment, the bottoms of the cages were raised to give cage water depths of 2 meters. Impervious tarpaulins were used to surround individually each of the cages, and oxygen was diffused into the cages using a circular diffusor, to maintain an oxygen level of at least 8 mg/1 during the time of treatment. Treatment was carried out by measuring an amount of 2.54 wt % stock solution of Cypermethrin calculated to give a final concentration in the cage of 100 μg/l, mixing this in a bucket of sea water, and then pouring this concentrated mixture into the appropriate cage, at several sites around the cage. After addition of treatment solution to the cages, the tarpaulins remained in place for 1 hour.
The method was repeated with the control cages, but without the addition of Cypermethrin.
Sampling and Measurements
Sampling was carried out by removing 10 fish from each tank, anaesthetizing the fish, and counting the number of chalimus, pre-adult and adult lice on each fish in accordance with the Marine Harvest International Standard Operating Procedure. The fish used for counting were killed, and not returned to the experimental cages. Counts were conducted at the following times:
Day of treatment (Day 1) : Approximately 1 hour after removal of the tarpaulin from the cage.
Day 2 Approximately 24 hours after removal of the tarpaulins from the cage.
Day 8
Day 15
Table 1 below summarises the results obtained. (Where the number of lice on a fish was greater than 100, it was recorded as >100 and taken to equal 100 during data analysis.) The results are presented graphically in FIG. 1.
TABLE 1______________________________________ Mean number of lice (Standard deviation in parentheses)Treatment Day Chalimus Pre-adult Adult______________________________________PRE- 0 3.13 (2.42) 4.6 (1.99) 8.6 (2.9TREATMENTCYPERMETHRIN 1 2.97 (2.41) 0.3 (0.6) 1.93 (1.48)CONTROL 1 4.77 (1.89) 3.82 (1.53) 11.4 (4.26)CYPERMETHRIN 2 3.17 (2.16) 0.23 (0.5) 0.03 (0.18)CONTROL 2 2.2 (2.4) 1.26 (1.31) 7.3 (6.6)CYPERMETHRIN 8 1.33 (1.19) 2.67 (2.47) 1.5 (1.7)CONTROL 8 26.6 (16.2) 10.9 (8.9) 9.3 (5.5)CYPERMETHRIN 15 87.5 (20.6) 77.8 (23.9) 10.5 (7.1)CONTROL 15 90.3 (17.3) 76.6 (25.5) 22.2 (10.6)______________________________________ Each value = mean of 30 fish; Pretreatment values = mean of 15 fish
Treatment with Cypermethrin at 100 μg/l for 1 hour substantially reduced chalimus, pre-adult and adult numbers of lice on treated fish, as compared to untreated fish. The effect was seen particularly at day 8 (7 days after treatment), but was substantially reduced by day 15. A possible explanation for this lack of difference on day 15 is that reinfection occurred from the untreated to treated fish; a massive sea lice infection of the site noted on day 8 could have contributed to rapid reinfection. When used commercially, all fish would be treated simultaneously, hence all lice would be affected, and so reinfection would not be expected to occur so soon after treatment.
The effect against adult and pre-adult lice was expected from our previous work described in WO 92/16106, but the significantly lower numbers of chalimus lice on treated fish 7 days after treatment (day 8) as compared to untreated fish was completely unexpected. The reasons for this effect are unknown, but it is suggested that the treatment killed a proportion of the chalimus lice, and also in some way stopped or delayed maturation of copeopodids into chalimus for several days. A second trial (Trial 2) was carried out in order to investigate the effect further:
Trial 2 was carried out at the Marine Harvest International Experimental Challenge Unit at Lochailort, Inverness-shire. Two studies were conducted; firstly, a pilot study (control) in which the rate of survival and development of sea lice on fish in a tank environment was investigated; and secondly a trial study to investigate the effect of Cypermethrin.
In both pilot and trial studies, 60 Atlantic Salmon smolts were taken and challenged with a known number of sea lice copeopodids. The fish in the pilot study (referred to as GP1) were counted for lice at 10 days, 21 days and 27 days after initial infestation, while those in the trial study (referred to as GP2) were counted for lice at 10 days after infestation (immediately before treatment) and at 20 days and 28 days after infestation. Counting was carried out by killing 10 randomly chosen fish at each count, and examining and identifying stages of lice by use of a microscope. The number of lice in each of the following phases of development was recorded: Copeopodid, Chalimus I, Chalimus II, Chalimus III, Chalimus IV, Pre-Adult I, Pre-Adult II and Adult.
Treatment of the fish in trial study GP2 was for one hour with trial solution GPRDO1 containing Cypermethrin at a final concentration of 5 μg/l of seawater.
The mean total lice counts for the two studies are set out below in Table 2, and are presented graphically in FIG. 2A.

Tables 2B and 2C below indicate the percentages of total sea lice observed in each developmental phase, the results being represented graphically in FIG. 2B.

The results show a marked retardation in lice development when treated with Cypermethrin.
Ambient water temperature during pilot study GP1 (range 8.0 to 10.5� C.) was slightly lower than that during trial study GP2 (range 8.5 to 11.5� C.). This difference would be expected to cause GP2 lice to survive slightly better and develop slightly faster than GP1 lice, with the result that the differences in lice numbers and growth rates between treated and untreated populations would be likely to be ever greater if comparative trials were carried out in exactly similar conditions.
During pilot study GP1 the damage caused to the salmon by the sea lice was noted to be moderate to severe, and the extent of the damage was as would be expected in a natural situation. Some of the untreated fish were suffering with such severe lesions caused by the sea lice by 28 days after infestation that all remaining fish were culled for welfare reasons. In contrast, the fish used in trial GP2 had suffered no significant damage by day 28, when the last fish were culled for sea lice counting.
Trial 3 was carried out at a seawater site in the Faroe Islands, using hexagonal "Bridgestone" cages having a circumference of approximately 102 m and a depth in the order of 10 to 12.5 m.
Approximately 200,000 Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) of average weight 0.96 kg were used in the trial, and were divided between two treatment cages (A and B).
On day 0 of the trial, the nets of cage B were raised to a depth shallow enough to allow a tarpaulin to be placed underneath. Oxygen was dispersed into the cage to maintain an oxygen level greater than 7 mg/l. The tarpaulin was then used to enclose the cage volume to create a bath for treatment. The actual depth was measured by taking a boat out to the centre of the cage and dropping a weighted rope, which indicated a depth of approximately 4 meters to the tarpaulin.
Cage B was then treated with 700 liters of seawater as a negative control treatment to assess the effect, if any, of the experimental conditions of the fish. The tarpaulin was removed after 60 minutes.
The next day the fish mortalities were recorded and not found to be significantly higher than before the negative control treatment.
On day 1 of the trial, both cages were treated with a dose of 1% w/v cypermethrin, by mixing the required amount (500 ml) with 700 liters of seawater and applying, using a pump, to each cage. The final concentration of cypermethrin was found by analysis to be approximately 0.9 μg/l in each cage. The cages remained enclosed for 60 minutes and the oxygen levels were monitored.
On each day on which lice counts were taken, five fish were removed from each cage, killed by an overdosage of benzocaine and placed in individual labelled polythene bags. The fish were then frozen and stored for lice counting. Thi was done on day 0 and day 1 (pre-treatment) and on days 2, 8 and 14 (post-treatment).
The culled fish were counted for Lepeophtheirus salmonis sea lice in the following stages of development: Chalimus I-II, Chalimus III-IV, pre-adult, adult, and gravid female. The numbers of Caligus elongatus sea lice were also counted. Mean values are set out in tables 3A and 3B below:

Statistical Analysis of Results
The lice counts were logarithmically transformed and analysed using parametric statistical methods. In particular, the pre-treatment counts before and after the negative control were analysed by using a two-sample t-test. The results of this test are in Table 3D below:.
TABLE 3D__________________________________________________________________________ Chalimus Chalimus Pre- Gravid CaligusDay I-II III--IV Adults Adults Females elongatus__________________________________________________________________________T-value -2.88 -1.41 0.83 -0.94 0.50 0.88p-value 0.024 0.200 0.44 0.38 0.64 0.41significance Significant Not Not Not Not Not significant significant significant significant significant__________________________________________________________________________ Significance level = 0.05 (5%)
The negative control did not have a significant effect on the lice numbers of any of the life stages of Lepeoptheirus salmonis or Caligus elongatus, with the exception of the Chalimus I-II stages, this was in fact a statically significant increase in numbers. This may suggest the fish were being continually re-infected with a new generation of lice. (This possible effect was seen between day 8 and 14 post-treatment).
Pre-treatment counts and post-treatment counts were analysed using a randomised block design with cages as blocks. This analysis provided a test for significant differences between counts at different points in time. The results are displayed in Table 3E below:
TABLE 3E__________________________________________________________________________ Chalimus Chalimus Pre- Gravid CaligusDay I-II III--IV Adults Adults Females elongatus__________________________________________________________________________p-value 0.001 0.026 0.002 0.239 0.111 0.001for daysignificance Significant Significant Significant Not Not Significant significant significant__________________________________________________________________________ Significance level = 0.05 (5%).
Caligus elongatus and Lepeoptheirus salmonis phases Chalimus I to IV and pre-adult were significantly reduced using cypermethrin.
A significant time difference effect was found, so a Newman-Keuls multiple range test was used to make pairwise comparisons between counts at different points in time. The results are as follows:
Chalimus I-II
There were statistically significant differences (at a 5% significance level, i.e. there is only a 5% chance of finding these results in random data) between days 1 & 2; and 1 & 8. This would indicate a reduction in numbers at day 2, and then an increase in lice numbers between days 8 & 14. This is most likely due to a reinfestation of a new generation of lice.
Chalimus III-IV
There were statistically significant differences (5%) between days 1 & 2; 1 & 8; and 1 & 14.
There were statistically significant differences (5%) between days 1 & 2; 1 & 8; and 1 & 14.
There were statistically significant differences (5%) between days 1 & 2; 1 & 8; and 1 & 14.
Gravid Females
There was no statistically significant reduction in gravid female lice numbers.
Caligus elongatus
There were statistically significant differences (5%) between days 1 & 2; 1 & 8; and 1 & 14.
Gravid Female lice were collected from Atlantic Salmon and incubated at 14� C. for 5 days until the eggs had hatched and developed through the naupilus stages to copeopodids. Approximately 100 copeopodids were added to each of seven beakers of 500 ml seawater. Pyrethroids were added to six beakers at a concentration of 5 μg pyrethroid/liter. One beaker was used as a control. All the beakers were maintained at 14� C. for one hour.
After one hour the beakers of lice were sieved through 500 μm plankton mesh, and the lice then rinsed in fresh seawater before being placed in clean beakers and seawater.
The lice were then assessed comparing with the control beaker. The following factors were used for assessment:
reaction to light,
reaction to vibration, and
reaction to shadow.
The reaction were classified as Good, Moderate, Poor and None with reference to the control.
Three sub-samples, each of 10 ml, were removed from each beaker. The total number of lice and the number of mobile lice were recorded and displayed as a percentage.
An assessment was made for each beaker at 1 hour, 24 hours and 72 hours.
This experiment was then repeated at a later date, with different copeopodids at a higher concentration of 50 μm pyrethroid/ litre. This time the experiment was performed blind, to avoid bias by the observer.

The results show that all pyrethroids appeared to have had some effect on the sea lice, although the results indicate a varying level of potency between different pyrethroids. Of the formulations tested lambda-cyhalothrin, high-cis-cypermethrin, cypermethrin and deltamethrin were the most efficacious.
It is a possibility that efficacy will vary with formulation as well as with pyrethroid. It was noted in the second experiment that the deltamethrin formulation did not mix well and formed oily droplets in the beaker. The pyrethroid formulations which mixed well and formed emulsions appeared to be effective immediately against the sea lice.
The bifenthrin was replaced in the second experiment with trebon and lambda-cyhalothrin. This was simply due to availability of the compounds.
Efficacy was assessed on the basis of decreased mobility of the lice, but there is no way of assessing if the lice are dead or merely immobile. It can be assumed, however, that if the immobile lice do not recover, they will not find a host, and will therefore die.
The results from Trial 1 show that Cypermethrin at a concentration of 100 μg/l substantially reduces not only the number of pre-adult and adult lice on the infested fish, as was expected, but also, surprisingly , the number of immature lice. Trial 2 shows that this effect is still marked when the concentration of Cypermethrin is reduced to 5 μg/l, and furthermore that the effect of the Cypermethrin is not only to reduce chalimus numbers by killing a portion thereof, but also to prolong development times of those which survive, thus delaying maturation to the most damaging pre-adult and adult phases. It is also thought that there may be an effect in reducing the feeding rate of the lice, thus reducing the damage caused by each individual surviving louse.
Trial 3 demonstrates that the effect of cypermethrin is still statistically significant, even at concentrations as low as 0.9 μg/l, and furthermore that it is effective not only against immature phases of Lepeoptheirus salmonis, but also against Caligus elongatus. It is anticipated that Cypermethrin will be effective in concentrations ranging from 0.05 μg/l to 500 μg/l, the concentration preferably being in the range 0.5 μg/l to 100 μg/l.
Trial 4 demonstrates the efficacy of other pyrethroid compounds, in particular lambda-cyhalothrin, high-cis-cypermethrin and deltamethrin.
It should be noted that the term "sea lice" is a general one, which applies to a number of different species of parasite, both of seawater and fresh water fish. It has been found in the past that effective treatments for one species are generally effective against other species also, and the invention therefore extends to the treatment of immature sea lice in general, regardless of species, and regardless of whether the infestations are of seawater or fresh water fish.

From Wikipedia.
Following a fall on Wednesday, actor Gary Coleman has sufferedan increasingly serious brain hemorrhage. He's now in intensive care at a Utah hospital. "He's unconscious and on life support at the moment," his manager told People.
Wikipedia, as it is wont to do, has played the role of the pessimist, with some editors already citing Coleman's death year as 2010 on his profile page. "He's not dead, so years active is still 1978-Present, which also means he's still married," admonished a more optimistic contributor, corrected the offending dates. Even earlier, Wiki contributors started changing verb tenses in morbid fashion. "[Coleman] 'is' an actor, not 'was' an actor," wrote one, and swiftly edited the entry. Anyway, let's hope Coleman's condition is improving.
UPDATE: According to Radaronline.com and the Huffington Post, Coleman has in fact passed away.

Warner Bros Sets THE JUNGLE BOOK: ORIGINS Release for 2016; Andy Serkis to Direct
Warner Bros. announced today that their upcoming adaptation of Rudyard Kipling's THE JUNGLE BOOK will hit the big screen on October 21, 2016, helmed by Andy Serkis. It's titled THE JUNGLE BOOK: ORIGINS.
No word yet on who will star in the project.
This announcement provides one year's distance between Disney's new version of the tale, directed by Jon Favreau, which will be out October 9, 2015. The Disney film, a combination of live-action and animation, will star Neel Sethi as Mowgli, with voice work by Idris Elba, Scarlett Johansson, Lupita Nyong'o, Ben Kinglsey, Christopher Walken and Giancarlo Esposito.
THE JUNGLE BOOK, based on Rudyard Kipling's 1894 collection of stories, originally premiered as a Disney animated feature in 1967, followed by a live action version directed by Stephen Sommers in 1994.
Serkis just appeared in Dawn of the Planet of the Apes and is working on Avengers: Age of Ultron, Star Wars: Episode VII and The Adventures of Tintin: Prisoners of the Sun. He is well known for his role as 'Gollum' in the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit films. THE JUNGLE BOOK: ORIGINS will be his directorial debut.

From "9 Drawings for Projection (1989-2003): Stereoscope" (1999)
"When I first did the films they were very separate from my activity of drawing, which was art. And when a curator came and said he wanted to show my films, I felt insulted and I refused. It took me a long time to understand that it was all right that film was the substantive work I was doing."

Quail Digital, a wireless headset communication specialist, has extended the bandwidth on its Q Pro 5 drive-thru system. The system now operates on the new CATiQ dect 6 standard, which increases bandwidth from 8KHz to 16KHz, according to a company press release.
The development has improved audio quality between the wireless headsets and between the headsets and the order point. Noise-cancelling technology also removes external traffic noise more efficiently to give much clearer communication between customers and order takers.
"The upgrade has doubled the audio quality of the system, which is a huge advantage for crew and customers," said Tom Downes, CEO of Quail Digital. "Order accuracy is everything. If the order taker can hear clearly the drive-thru operation runs well."
The new system is available now following successful trials in the UK with several brands. Existing users have the opportunity to upgrade.
"Our 8KHz system was good, indeed tests by Orfield Laboratories Inc last year revealed that the Q Pro 5 system offers superior acoustic quality to our competitors, and this is a great innovation for our customers," Downes said.
Restaurant brands already using Quail Digital headsets include Fatburger, Dairy Queen, Subway, Weinerschnitzel, Java Station, Al's American Beef, Sonic, KFC and Burger King.

The Chicago Great Western Railroad Depot is a historic railway station in the village of Elizabeth, Illinois, USA. It was built in 1877–78 and like many rural stations along the Chicago Great Western Railroad it was cast in Stick style. The building was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1996.
The Elizabeth, Illinois Chicago Great Western Railroad Depot was built in 1877–78 by the Minnesota Northwestern Railway Company. In January 1892, A.B. Stickney's Chicago Great Western Railroad company bought the Minnesota Northwestern company.[2]
The design of the depot in Elizabeth is similar to the design of many of the rural stations built during the 1880s and 1890s along the Chicago Great Western Railroad. Many of these stations, including the Elizabeth depot, were small rectangular, side-gabled buildings built in Stick style. Through the years, some of the depot's original architectural details were lost.[2]
Today the depot building is operated as a railroad museum.[3] Located in a mixed commercial district, the area that was once the station's stockyard is now a lumber company, but the "Commercial Hotel", an 1889 hotel that served railroad patrons, across the street still stands.[2] The depot was restored by the Elizabeth Historical Society and is meant to become an important repository of information about the Chicago Great Western Railroad.[3]
Historic significance[edit]
The arrival of the depot in Elizabeth coincided with a record growth spurt between 1880–1900. The population of Elizabeth rose from 507 to 659 during those two decades and by the 1910s unofficial numbers estimated the population at close to 1,000. The station and the railroad industry in Elizabeth heralded a new era in the village. On February 16, 1996 the Chicago Great Western Railroad Station in Elizabeth, Illinois was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.[1]
