Topical Collection Information
Dear Colleagues,
Medical imaging techniques are of paramount value in clinical medicine and as research tools. The techniques are rapidly improving and new techniques are continuously implemented.
Whereas every technique has advantages and shortcomings, imaging techniques are often complementary, and therefore, a current trend is the integration of different imaging techniques for hybrid imaging.
Examples of such synergistic hybrid imaging is PET/CT, which is now more common than PET-only scans. Recently, hybrid PET/MRI scanners have also been introduced in clinical use. Moreover, developments for combining ultrasonography with other modalities are on their way. Integration of morphological and functional imaging seems to be especially useful. However, combinations of several functional modalities may add value and allow for better tissue characterization.
This collection invites submission of both original and review papers within all aspects of hybrid imaging.

Title: The Use of Hybrid Imaging for Patient-Specific Dosimetry in Radionuclide Therapy
Authors: Michael Ljungberg and Katarina Sjögreen Gleisner
Abstract: Radionuclide therapy aims to treat malignant disease by systemic administration of radiopharmaceuticals, often using carrier molecules such as peptides and antibodies. Radionuclides used are such that emit electrons or alpha particles as part of radioactive decay, thus imparting a local energy-deposition. The activity to administer to the individual patient can be tailored with regards to the risk of toxicity in normal organs, using absorbed dose planning. The scintillation camera, employed in planar- or SPECT mode imaging, generates images of the spatially and temporally varying activity distribution. Recent commercially available SPECT/CT systems have dramatically increased the possibility of performing accurate dose planning by using the CT information in several steps of the dose-planning calculation chain. This paper discusses the dosimetry chain used for individual absorbed-dose planning and the highlights steps where hybrid imaging makes significant contributions.
Title: Role of hybrid molecular brain imaging in neuropsychiatric disorders
Authors: Burhan AM, Arena A, Subramanian P, Palaniappan L and Prato F
Abstract: This is a focused review of imaging literature to scope the utility of hybrid molecular brain imaging in neuropsychiatric disorders. The review focuses on brain imaging modalities that utilize hybrid techniques to profile changes in brain molecular signal in combination with structural brain imaging. An overview of available hybrid molecular brain imaging technologies is followed by a review of the literature on current evidence for the utility of these technologies in understanding basic mechanisms of major neuropsychiatric disorders and their therapeutics.

Tales Characters Inspire New Tales of Vesperia CostumesBy Spencer . November 27, 2009 . 11:54am
Other Tales heroes spiritually found way into Tales of Vesperia, sort of. Their outfits made it into the game.
Other Tales heroes spiritually found way into Tales of Vesperia, sort of. Their outfits made it into the game.
Bad news Tales fans. Rikiya Koyama, the voice actor that said Tales of Vesperia was coming to the Wii, made a mistake.
Duke Pantarei's Japanese voice actor says it is.
Namco Bandai added more Tales of Vesperia costumes to the PlayStation Store.
Namco Bandai packed a DLC code to access extra Tales of Vesperia skits in Tales of Vs. and gave out Abyss style costumes as a pre-order bonus. Didn't pre-order or purchase up Vs.? Don't worry, there's still a way to get the content.
Toro, the Sony cat, and his buddy Kuro featured Tales of Vesperia on Torostation. The show highlighted game's new features like full voice acting, Patty, and extra bosses made for the PlayStation 3 port.
People that purchase the PlayStation 3 version of Tales of Vesperia have one more bonus. You can play the game even fight in battles as Sgt. Frog aka Keroro in Japan.
Terca Lumireis is in peril. The child of the full moon is in your party. What a great time to equip battle ready… bathing suits?
A Tales of Vesperia demo is on Japan's PlayStation Store, just like Namco Bandai promised. And it's not a rehash of the Xbox 360 demo.
Instead of recycling a trailer from the Xbox 360 release, Namco Bandai made a new video with PS3 exclusive pirate Patty Fleur in battle and a glimpse at some of the new cutscenes.
Tales of Vesperia and Tales of Vs. connect to each other, sort of. First print runs of both games come with codes to unlock special content.
Yuri's long time friend Flynn Scifo plays a lead role in Tales of Vesperia. In the PlayStation 3 version you can actually control him for the entire game.
Namco Bandai unleashed another batch of screenshots from Tales of Vs., Tales of Vesperia, and Tales of Graces. What did we learn from these? Teenage pirates use scrap metal rocket ships and fluffy creatures to attack monsters. Also, it appears the Tales team is giving LittleBigPlanet a nod. See the move Patty Fleur is […]
We have a triple dose of Tales trailers for you to see. Pay close attention to the Tales of Vs. one. In a video montage Lloyd Irving flashes in the background pretty much confirming he's going to be in the game — if you didn't guess that already. The trailer, which was shown to […]
Tales of Vesperia: The First Strike takes place before the events of Tales of Vesperia with Yuri Lowell as an Imperial Knight. Production I.G. is handling the film which is said to tie in with the PS3 version. While the film revolves around Yuri other faces from Tales of Vesperia will be in the movie. […]

Cyber Crime Black Market Exploding Worldwide

Infographic explaining cyber crime and security
(Source: Rasmussen College)
Governments and police authorities are scrambling to try and catch up to global demand of stolen information from cyber criminals
Growing up in the United States, children are continually warned about potential "real-world" crime that plagues only a small number of the population each year. However, more people are now becoming victims of cyber crimes, and there is very little being done to help protect Internet users – and companies routinely targeted.
Increasingly, the looming threat of cyber crime is hitting us at a rapid pace –researchers estimate organized crime groups collected more than $388 billion from identity theft and other crimes in 2011. Amazingly, cyber crimes are quickly approaching the $411 billion industry involving the trafficking and selling of illegal narcotics, according to Rasmussen College researchers.
Criminals are developing their cyber crime skills that include phishing, internet scams, identity theft, and other sophisticated attempts to steal personal information.
For internet users looking to protect themselves, researchers have a few basic tips: not using a single password for all online accounts, avoid clicking unsafe links, connecting to secure Wi-Fi accounts, keep security software updated, and be careful about what you're posting on the Internet.
That's all fine and dandy for casual Internet users, but what if the problem is a structural issue from corporations and the government?
The U.S. government is now making its own cyber security a more pressing matter, though very few people seem to know what to do.
Senators Jay Rockefeller (D-W. Va) and Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.), the Senate Homeland Security Committee Chairman, believe the Pres. Obama administration should utilize an executive order for cyber security. Lieberman and Rockefeller haven't had success with efforts in Washington because certain industries aren't happy they'd be forced to adhere to stricter digital standards.
Obama is interested in
seeking longer prison sentences
for digital criminals, and Defense Secretary Leon Panetta has
a cyber operation plan
to standardize military cyber operations.
Even with all of this talk regarding U.S. vulnerabilities, the U.S. government has found success launching coordinated attacks. In addition to temporarily
crippling Al Qaeda
, the U.S. has used Stuxnet and Flame to
target Iranian computer networks
In the long term, government legislation will not help protect the US government – and its citizens – from cyber attacks, but elected officials trying to ignore the problem won't do any good.

rooting cybercrime
Mike Acker
Mike Acker
we need to root out the deficiencies that enable cybercrime rather than "treating the symptoms" -- as noted by another writer on this blog.
study the methodology used by cyber-criminals:
1. impersonation: assuming a false identity. Proper deployment of public key encryption (PGP,GnuPG) on e/mails, transactions, and software transmittals is the place to start
2. injection: (un-authorized updates) -- SQL, iFrame, "Man in the Browser", root kits, ...
3. executable documents: most modern documents -- html, flash, spreadsheets, word, jpeg, pdf -- can conatin executable code -- java, vbs, byte code, C#, .net, php ...
as a result all modern documents must be handled as though they were .exe files
this means we have to take a step back and re-examine the construction of our operating software
the operating software must never run an un-known program in "real" mode -- such programs must be run in "user mode"
in "user mode" programs are not allowed to actually run: we only allow simulation: testing to see what the program wants to do
to accomplish this, in user mode a program is not allowed to execute any privileged instruction.
privileged instructions include input/output, and memory allocation or access. these operations must be requested by the application program and the operating system will check these for proper permissions ( remember authentications above ) before performing such requests for the application
now we need to examine the security features of the x86/x64 chips to see how this could be done -- and whether it is actually being sufficiently implemented
the x86/x64 chips provide 4 privilege levels -- "ring0,1,2,3 as well as both memory protection and virtual memory
are these all being used properly?
read all the hacker reports
also Root Kit arsenal
then think about switching to Linux. I'm building my 2d "nix" box now. there's a lot of good software; maybe not every favorite from the earlier system but anyone interested in security is going to want to take a look. grab an older PC and put Ubuntu in; check it out.
"A lot of people pay zero for the cellphone ... That's what it's worth." -- Apple Chief Operating Officer Timothy Cook

Editorial: Congress should sober up and solve problems
New Year's morning 2013 isn't so happy in Washington, D.C. With the White House as an enabler, Congress has been on a holiday binge. After drinking heavily from bottles of potent partisanship, members ended 2012 with sloppy attempts at reconciliation on New Year's Eve.
This morning, members of both parties lie face down in the gutter, and all Americans awoke with a pounding headache and a churning stomach.
The 112th Congress was an abject failure. The 113th Congress must make a collective New Year's resolution to come up with a bipartisan cure for the nation's ills without pandering to the extremists in both parties.
Congress passed no budget during the two-year session, relying on continuing resolutions to keep the government running.
Last year, at the first of the session, bickering over raising the debt limit led directly to a downgrade of the nation's credit rating.
In a somewhat understandable move, Congress erected the "fiscal cliff," a combination of draconian budget cuts and an expiration of tax cuts that would take effect without a comprehensive, long-term budget deal. The specter of going over the fiscal cliff was supposed to scare both parties into coming to an agreement.
By the time negotiations entered the 11th hour Monday, the deal on the table had become so diluted that it will not do what was intended — address the country's long-term debt problem. So now the 113th Congress will have to clean up after the party. Of course, most incumbents are returning to Washington, so the outlook is bleak.
The two-pronged problem facing the White House and Congress is to slow the growth of the nation's debt without destroying the fragile recovery. In an ideal world, steps to curb spending, especially the reform of popular entitlement programs, should be taken when the economy is robust. But this world, as anyone who has watched this dysfunctional Congress would attest, is far from ideal.
Republicans, boxed in by pledges to Grover Norquist of Americans for Tax Reform, have resisted raising tax revenues, while Democrats, fearful of losing support among seniors and the middle class, have blocked entitlement reform. Both will be necessary for meaningful debt reduction.
Though both parties during recent days have talked compromise, they have been slow to take even the first step of the walk. Instead, they staggered into the new year.
So now is the time to take two aspirin and maybe a cold shower, eat some black-eyed peas and make resolutions for the coming year. Both parties should swear off the strong drink of partisanship and instead pursue sober, responsible leadership.
Our hope for 2013 is that the members of the 113th Congress pledge to do their duty, place country above party and solve the nation's problems. Of course, New Year's resolutions are like campaign promises — many are made, but few are kept. Occasionally, though, one sticks to the diet and keeps up with the exercise program. This must be one of those times.

I really like it, but it could be better
One problem I have with this app is the group call function, I can't see my friends and they can't see me, though it may be different on iPad, I think. Another problem I have is that you can't add back someone you've block from your contacts, if you accidentally block and delete one of your friends who you only know through Skype, you're not going to be able to get them back, unless you switch over to Skype on the pc and unblock them, seriously, add a blocked-users list. I also have had times where I'm signed out even if I didn't do, and recently my friend who was away from home and was logged out of Skype the whole time, suddenly appeared as Away for some reason, I asked him via texting if he was home and he responded no; then I asked if he had Skype on his phone and he said no. Fix your group call function on iPhones and iPods so I can see my friends and the can see me, fix this problem with signing you out with you doing so, and do something so that offline contacts don't appear as away.
Skype is ok.
Skype is one of those apps that lies between the border line of good and bad. Skype is a good app but also a bad app at the same time.
Skype has some pretty bad bugs that I would like to be fixed. Sometimes you can enter in the app, but it will exit straight out. It will also not let me see some of the texts from my contacts unless I restart the app. It also has some pretty bad notifications. I'll get a notification, but that's only when I check my Skype. Sometimes it will show notifications, other times it won't. The lags are also pretty bad.
Skype is a really good use to talking to friends far away. While FaceTime, is pretty much the same. But I think Skype will be able to earn better stars if you make the updates much more better. Make Skype more like the computer version. Like sharing screens, being able to send contacts, and much more details. Skype will be better if you put a lot more effort into it.
It's good but It needs some serious bug fixes
I really have nothing to complain about personally regarding the reliability of Skype , I have read some of the reviews and some customers are upset over very specific bugs and issues that are not fun to be in and I understand their position they stand in , but on problem it has that I consider a very obnoxious problem is when you are on a Skype call and essentially everything on my iPhone(6plus) device all and every other app but Skype is reduced to the point that it is inaudible or super duper difficult to hear since Skype hugs all of the audio. I have Skype on my pc and I have no complaints other than I had to use task manager just to close the app itself . These little bugs and issues have to be addressed to improved in order for Skype to be a bit more flexible and functional to multitaskers, thanks for reading this far into my rant!

and this.....You get to pick one pitcher, within the system, FA or rumored to be available. Explain how you got him, and project his numbers.
I say the Reds sign C.J. Wilson to a 4 year 51M contract. Wilson has now had 2 straight seasons of 200 IP, and he's getting better. He profiles as even on GB/FB as a starter, has a good K ability and would benefit from switching leagues. His defense in TX certainly doesn't hurt him, and the same holds true in Cincinnati.
34 starts, 225 IP 3.00 ERA 210K's 1.15 WHIP 17 Wins.
This makes the rotation
- per TRF off ORG
Ok if I'm the GM and I have to get a pitcher by Any means possible this is my plan.
1) I call up Brian Sabean in SF and ask for Johnathon Sanchez, the Giants are loaded with starters and need help offensively so it'a a perfect fit.
Reds trade: Yonder Alonzo and Dave Sappelt
Giants trade: Johnathon Sanchez
-Yonder becomes the Giants 1st baseman replacing Aubrey Huff, while Sappelt gives them a young backup of who could be a 4th/5th OF and replace the losses of Rowand and Ross in CF.
-Sanchez then gives the Reds the Lefty in the rotation that they desperately need and helps to stabilize the rotation.

Now 21, Landeskog hopes people stop calling him 'Kid'
Nov 24, 2013, 11:38 AM EDT
Gabriel Landeskog is just in his third NHL season, but as he put it, he's been through a lot.
He's won the Calder Trophy, become the youngest captain in NHL history, endured a lockout, recovered from a concussion, inked a seven-year, $39 million deal, and currently seems well on his way to making his playoff debut.
The Colorado Avalanche forward also turned 21 yesterday and is hoping that might lead to people looking at him a bit differently.
"Hopefully guys can stop calling me 'Kid' and think of me as a real adult now," Landeskog told the Denver Post.
After a rough sophomore campaign, Landeskog has taken a step forward this season with seven goals and 16 points in 21 games. Meanwhile, the Avalanche have gone from one of the worst teams in the league during the shortened campaign to a legitimate contender for a playoff spot.
Before the campaign is over, he might also represent Team Sweden in the 2014 Winter Olympics.
So he might not be old, but his rookie days are well behind him.

Sure looked like a man to me when he knew how to handle the Bruins bullying earlier in the season. Was very impressed.
- joey4id - Nov 24, 2013 at 3:03 PM
he really should get over himself. gary carter was known as the kid from the moment he joined the majors up until his recent passing. btw, the drinking age may be 21 in the states, but in no way does it mean you are an adult.
- canucks30 - Nov 24, 2013 at 5:49 PM
Yeah. Good luck with that.
People still call Sidney Crosby "Sid the Kid" and he's 26 going on 27.

"endured a lockout"
its not a terminal illness. maybe "experienced" is a more appropriate word.

BE 3600 suggested backup selection
So we use a 3600 and the only information I have on what to back up to the off site tape was a small section in the admin guide, problem is there are not a lot of details and it really doesn't explain where the data is stored for the devices we backup. I know placing the information on tape may seem backwards but the whole point is minimizing risk. If I'm not backing up the relevant data to offsite I'm not doing my job. Sooooo, what is the full path(s) on a BE 3600 for the images that are stored on it from backing up other servers? What are the suggested full backup data selections?
Comments 7 Comments • Jump to latest comment
In Backup Exec 2012, BE will automatically select the necessary data when you are performing a full system backup as a default. Are you trying to do full backups for DR purposes to recover the entire system? Or just the application data? This can be tuned based on your recovery objectives.
I am not sure i understand your first question about the path(s) for storage. Can you elaborate?
By Default, Backup Exec 2012 will select all critical system components needed for performing a disaster recovery of the system when you create the backup job - typically referrred to as Simplfied Disaster Recovery or SDR. When viewing the backup job, you will see a green radio button indicating that all the necessary information is being protected to perform a DR event.
The article below discusses the recovery process. Notice the green radio button highlighted in the first graphic indicating all components are being protected to perform a DR.
We have this technote that covers the high level process:
Specifically, these are the steps that you need to perform:
Create a reocurring backup job that protects the deduplication storage
- Select "Shadow Copy Components\User Data\Backup Exec Deduplication Storage" to backup the deduplication storage
- Select "D:\BackupExec\Catalogs" to capture the catalog data
- Set a schedule for this job (daily, etc.)
- Target a device such as an external hard drive, USB RDX drive, etc
- Run
To rebuild after the DR, assuming that the data drives have been lost, etc.
- Recreate RAID5 volume and virtual disk
- Perform a factory reset
- Use USB Key Method (http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?pag...)
- Or Powershell from the Instruction in the Admin Guide
- Complete initial configuration using same credentials for the appliance and deduplication storage used in the initial setup
- Connect the external device where backup of deduplication storage was sent and restore the deduplication storage
- Inventory newly restored deduplication storage, perform catalog if necessary
- Restore Backup Exec database
- Select the latest "D:\BackupExec\BEDB\BEDB.bak"
- Add a post command "PrepareBEDBRecovery.bat" to the job properties
Reboot the appliance and DR completes
I hope this helps you with some background information...
There are two sets of storage drives in the appliance, 1) a mirrored SSD set (two 2.5" drives), 2) a RAID HDD striped set (four 3.5" SATA drives)
Mirrored SSDs: Backup Exec stores it's jobs logs here (C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Data). The first gen appliance has 40 GB drives and the second gen has 80 GB drives. The dedup folder is NOT located here.
RAID HDDs: This is where Backup Exec stores: 1) Appliance_Dedup information (D:\Appliance_Dedup, 2) The Backup Exec metadata - Catalogs, BE data base, troubleshooting logs, (D:\BackupExec), & 3) The BE dedup folder where all the data is backed up to (D:\BEData. The size of the stripes set is approx. 5.4 TB in size.

On page 63, the report identified the four most important elements in creating a climate for stewardship:
Leadership by agency senior managers.
The establishment and implementation of a stewardship ethic by facilities program managers and staff as their basic business strategy.
Senior managers and program managers who create incentives for successful and innovative facility management.
Agency strategic plans that give suitable weight to effective facilities management.
Outsourcing Management Functions for the Acquisition of Federal Facilities states that "when acquiring facilities, a federal agency assumes an ownership responsibility as a steward of the public's investment" (NRC, 2000, p. 46). It notes that ownership and management functions are not the same. Owners establish objectives and make decisions. They determine the need for facilities, develop project scopes, balance conflicting priorities, establish parameters (for cost and duration, for example), and determine positions in negotiations. Managers perform ministerial functions that implement the owner's decisions and oversee accomplishment of the task. Ownership and management functions are equally important and must be balanced if organizations are to effectively achieve their missions. A smart owner of facilities has the skill base—usually a staff with the professional qualifications and authority—necessary to plan, guide, and evaluate the facility acquisition process. A smart owner focuses on the "relationship of a specific facility to the successful accomplishment of an organization's business or overall mission" (NRC, 2000, p. 50).
Investments in Federal Facilities: Asset Management Strategies for the 21st Century (NRC, 2004) recommends that federal organizations integrate facilities considerations into their strategic planning to provide decision makers with better information about the total long-term costs and consequences of a particular course of action. It also recommended that the senior facilities asset manager participate in the organization's strategic planning at the executive level so that he or she can translate between its missions and its facilities portfolio and clearly communicate how real estate and facilities can support the missions.
The 1998 and 2004 reports both recommend a life-cycle approach for managing facilities. All three reports recommend the continuous measurement of performance to improve federal facilities asset management. Performance measures help organizations to understand why particular decision-making processes or management practices succeeded or failed and where objectives are not being met or where they are being exceeded. Managers can then "investigate the factors or reasons underlying the performance and make appropriate adjustments" (NRC, 2004, p. 65).

Statement of Significance (as of designation - June 19, 1996):
The Church of the Advocate (1887-1897) is a landmark in the religious, social and architectural history of the United States. Built as a private bequest and intended to serve as the Episcopal Cathedral of Philadelphia, the church is a major monument in the American Gothic Revival. No other American church has so complete a repertoire of the canonical elements of Gothic Revival architecture.
The Church of the Advocate serves as host space for Art Sanctuary, a black art performance program in the heart of the black community. The first rate work touches the region as a whole.
The ceiling is deteriorating due to problem gutters that need to be replaced. If not for the construction type netting in place, the space could not be used at all. The old electrical system need to be replaced.
Recommendation/Change since last report:
The estimated cost for restoration of the gutters and ceiling is $7-8 million.

• Is the material already available from another laboratory within the institution or from a surplus-chemical stockroom? If so, waste is reduced, and the purchase price is saved. The tendency to use only new chemicals because of their purity should be scrutinized, and that tendency should be carefully justified to ensure that materials already on hand are used whenever possible.
• What is the minimum quantity that will suffice for current use? Chemical purchases should not be determined by the cheaper unit price basis of large quantities but rather by the amount needed for the experiment. The cost of disposing of the excess is likely to exceed any potential savings gained in a bulk purchase (i.e., the cost of getting rid of a chemical may exceed its acquisition cost). If a quantity smaller than the minimum offered by a supplier is needed, the supplier should be contacted and repackaging requested. Compressed gas cylinders, including lecture bottles, should normally be purchased from suppliers who accept return of empty cylinders. If paying demurrage charges, the laboratory may want to return partially filled cylinders that will not be used in the near future.
• What is the maximum size container allowed in the areas where the material will be used and stored? Fire codes and institutional policies regulate quantities of certain chemicals, most notably flammables and combustibles. For these materials, a maximum allowable quantity for laboratory storage has been established (see also sections 5.E.5 and 5.E.6).
• Can the chemical be managed safely when it arrives? Does it require special storage, such as in a drybox, refrigerator, or freezer? Do receiving personnel need to be notified of the order and given special instructions for receipt? Will any special equipment necessary to use the chemical be ready when it arrives? An effort should be made to order chemicals for just-in-time delivery by purchasing all unstable or extremely reactive materials from the same supplier with a request for one delivery at the best time for performing an experiment.
• Does the chemical present any unique security risks? Is it a controlled substance? Is there a risk of potential intentional misuse of the chemical? Will the quantity ordered affect compliance with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standard (CFATS)? (See Chapter 10 for a discussion of laboratory security.)
• Is the chemical unstable? Inherently unstable materials may have very short storage times and should be purchased just before use to avoid losing a reagent and creating an unnecessary waste of material and time. Some materials may require express or overnight delivery and will not tolerate being held in transit over a weekend or holiday.
• Can the waste be managed satisfactorily? A chemical that produces a new category of waste may cause problems for the waste management program. An appropriate waste characterization and method for proper disposal should be identified before the chemical is ordered.
Within an institution or organization, one of the advantages of computerization of ordering is that information about deliveries of chemicals can be retrieved from the chemical supplier, which provides a clear picture of the purchasing history and distribution of chemicals across buildings. Some institutions include in their annual contracts with suppliers a requirement to report on a monthly, a quarterly, or an annual basis the quantity of each type of chemical purchased and the location to which it was delivered. This information can be helpful in preparing the various annual reports on chemical use that may be required by federal, state, or local agencies. For example, centralized ordering may assist the institution in complying with the Controlled Substances Act and with CFATS. In addition, such a system is also useful for tracking the use of flammables, locations of Food and Drug Administration drug precursors, and DHS chemicals of interest. [See Handbook of Chemical Health and Safety (Alaimo, 2001); Code of Federal Regulations, 1998.]
A purchase order for a chemical should include a request for a material safety data sheet (MSDS). However, many of the larger laboratory chemical suppliers send each MSDS only when an organization first orders the chemical. Subsequent orders of the same chemical are not accompanied by the MSDS. Therefore, a central network of accessible MSDSs should be established. This collection of MSDSs can be electronic if computer access is available to all employees at all times.
5.C.2 Receiving Chemicals
Chemicals arrive at institutions in a variety of ways, including U.S. mail, commercial package delivery, express mail services, and direct delivery from chemical warehouses. Deliveries of chemicals should be confined to areas that are equipped to handle them, usually a loading dock, receiving room, or laboratory. Proper equipment for receipt of chemicals includes chains for temporarily holding cylinders and carts designed to safely move various types of chemical containers. Shelves, tables, or caged areas should be designated for packages to avoid damage by receiving room vehicles. Chemical deliveries should not be made to depart-

ANCH, AK to Sac, CA
This season has been a great one for me , i've riddin all over Alaska and reach the Arctic Circle , which was always one of my dream ride, this winter i want to start planning a big trip... i want to plan a ride back to my home town, Sacramento ,cali. i am thinking i want at least 2 1/2 weeks to do this run . so does anyone have any advice..suggestions, anything about this route here.?
Yeah, I suggest you time it to hit Dawson City Yukon on Thrus/Fri June 20-21 for the annual Dust2Dawson gathering. Good times!
Also, maybe try to get to Barb's movie nights held each month thru the winter to meet a few of us.
Are you leaving for good or just a vacation?
Have fun, Mark H.
Thanks duc !
I was planning maybe June or July. Or in between. And yes it is just for vacation and love riding purpose . I also have family down there and would like to visit them . Been too long
Once you get in to Washington state hit the coast and follow it down instead of I-5, then wander back up the spine of the mountains using the Oregon and Washington Backcountry Discovery Routes. If your butt's sore at the end, take a blue collar cruise on the Alaskan Marine Highway ferry.
It's expensive tho. You and the bike would be $372 one-way. If you book r/t you go for free and the bike would be $424.
Good luck and have fun, Mark H.
No ferries, I want to ride &ride back...
I will have to do more research on routes down the lowers 48
From the ADV archives:
Living in Alaska for over 30 years and being an avid motorcyclist for half again that long certainly doesn't make me an expert but.... here is a route
that I use.
From Flathead Lake:
Glacier National Park to Babb, MT
Babb to Pincher Creek, AB: with a side jaunt into Waterton Pk
Pincher Creek over the Crows Nest to CranBrook, BC
Cranbrook to Creston, BC
Creston to Kootenay Bay; free ferry to Balfour
31 and 31A to Nakusp
23 to Galena Bay; free ferry to Shelter Bay
Shelter Bay to Revelstoke, BC
Revelstoke into Lake Louise and up to Jasper, AB
Not sure if this works but if you are anywhere near either Revelstoke on the north end or Creston, BC on the south end, DO THE ABOVE.
Drive up to Alaska, do the Taylor, do Dawson City, do the Denali, see the Kenai (Homer, Seward) do the Parks and the Glenn. Pick up the ferry at Haines and float to Prince Rupert. If time (lack of time) is an issue, drive north... play around... stash the bikes in Anchorage...fly home...fly back next summer... do the D2D..go home.
^^^ This! I followed this route with AKMud and it was a great route.
Your route looks almost exactly the same as my ride this last July on my old airhead. Except I started from Fairbanks and ended up in Santa Cruz. The round trip took less than a month with about 6 non-riding days.
I ended up on I-5 from Portland to Sacramento mostly for convenience on the way down but completely avoided it on the way back where I went through Chico and eastern OR.
Doing some homework.' It'll be roughly 6,200 miles rountrip, I want to complete it in 12 days.
About $900 in gas. Trying to camp out instead on checking in rooms .
Planning maybe June 8th till the 23rd.
I ill try to make it back for 2013 D2D. Totall of at least 16 days on 2 wheels..
I must...must have to at least average 520 ish miles per day.
Kinda worried what Canada speed are. So that might slow me down. Trying to route thus Canada-less as much as possible.(no offense ey! )
What cha think. ?
I'm so stoked thinking about it. But i must get the time off work before I can start detailing the trip.
Also planning to stay maybe 2 days and night in Sacramento Cali. Final destination purposely for family visit. And head to d2d to hang with ya folks ;)
2 1/2 weeks will be a bit tight for round trip, especially if you want to spend any time with family down here. A couple things to keep in mind, especially considering your tight time line. When you tent, it takes 30 to 45 minutes every night to set things up and 45 minutes to an hour every morning to pack up and strap down. So you will lose about an hour and a half every day. Also, you won't have the sun setting at midnight down here like you do up there so your days will get shorter as you make your way south. Plus you will need shop time for a change of tires and probably two oil changes. Sounds like a great trip and with so many things to see down here hopefully you can squeeze some more time for the trip. I did the opposite trip this past summer.....Lake Tahoe to Alaska and back. I went up the Cassiar and back the Alaska highway. Both were beautiful and worth doing. Happy planning.
True about unpacking and re packing. It take me nope than one hour.
For tires. I will be taking off in fresh tires, I'm hoping they will get me thru the round trip. Unles it gets nail or chew up really bad.. For oil , I plan on doing only one change once I arrive in Cali. After that the Honda should se fine. And yes i wish I do have more time. But we'll see.
Are you runnin the Michelin PR2s again? I have had great luck with those. Another choice is the Scorpion Trail. I got almots 7k out of the rear on a Ulysses and they gripped enough to drag hard cases. It is also a dual compound rear.
No, I'm running on the Michelin roads 3, I went thru two sets this season averaging about 8k miles each. So I'll be stick with these guys for a whiles. Good life,grip, handles good in rain and gravel.
Looks like you've selected the Cassiar Hwy instead of the AlCan.
Good choice. :thumb
Traveled it again this summer myself, just opposite direction, and woulda been up for the return trip 3 days later!
Sure the Cassiar's all paved now and almost civilized, but every mile (er, kilometer) is gorgeous, still some technical bits in the northern half, and so much less tourist/RV traffic.
Just keep tabs on your fuel; there seems to have been an inverse relationship of gas stops to new pavement.

The waiting game, and hefty prices.
The waiting game, and hefty prices.
The leg injury really dampened what was shaping up to be a very impressive season.
He had long ceased to make sense for the Cubs, and he's getting a big league deal from the Twins.
It's a fairly bizarre story, so far as it has been reported. Hopefully it isn't a distraction.
Is it usually a bad thing to be hailed a winner of the offseason?
Nothing has been decided about his posting future just yet. Ease up.
The Cubs' minor league signing contingent is growing very large.
Baez is to stay at shortstop in the near-term, and yet he could soon be knocking on the door to the bigs.
Not a lot of turnover in the organization, which is a good sign.
The FCC is reconsidering things, but the impact to MLB could be minimal.
Still waiting to see an original report myself, but that's what the buzz is.
Sanchez has fallen on hard times as a starter, but maybe he can reinvent himself in the bullpen.
A mild bit surprising, given the presence of Welington Castillo and George Kottaras. A quality third catcher?
The stat is not only awful on its own merits, it is harmful because of what it has been held up to be.
The 26-year-old outfielder was one of the better players in Cuba, and offers versatility.
In case you wanted to know the particulars of the recent agreement between MLB and NPB regarding posting players.
One report has the Cubs asking for Jason Heyward or Justin Upton, each of whom is a free agent after two seasons.
The business of baseball is booming. Say what you will about everything else, but there's no denying that part.

Salmonella warning for nuts issued by CFIA
Certain packaged in-shell mixed nuts have been recalled by Loblaw because they may be contaminated by salmonella.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency and Loblaw are warning the public not to eat certain pre-packaged and bulk in-shell mixed nuts because they may be contaminated by salmonella.
The warning, first issued Dec. 2, was expanded later in the day to include hazelnuts.
The warning covers the 454 gram size of mixed nuts bearing the UPC 6 28721 20678 7 and the 1.3 kilogram package with the UPC 0 33383 70401 2.
These products were made in the United States.
These products were distributed nationally in Loblaw banners - Real Canadian Super Store, Fortinos, Freshmart, Loblaws, No Frills, Valu-Mart, Your Independent Grocer, Zehrs, Dominion, Red & White, Save Easy, Cash and Carry, Real Canadian Wholesale Club, Maxi & Cie, Maxi, Presto, Club Entrepôt, Provigo, Extra Foods, Shop Easy, Super Valu, Westfair, Affiliated Independents and Quick Mart.
There have been no reported illnesses, the food inspection agency said.
The products may not look or smell spoiled, but these bacteria may cause salmonellosis, a food-borne illness.
In young children and the elderly and people with weak immune systems, salmonellosis may cause serious and sometimes deadly infections, the food agency said.
Short-term symptoms in otherwise health people may include high fever, severe headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea.
Long-term complications may include severe arthritis.
Loblaw has recalled the affected products, and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency is monitoring the effectiveness of the recall.
For more information, consumers and industry can contact Loblaw customer relations at 1-800-296-2332 or email@example.com; or the CFIC at 1-800-442-2342 / TTY 1-800-465-7735 (8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Eastern time, Monday to Friday).

We are going out shopping for a Saturn Sky later today with my 23 year old daughter. She is getting ready to start her internship in the fall and has developed some kind of logical argument that this car is in some way part of her major needs. She used to use these same argument tactics when she was little and it always resulted in a kitten, a hamster, a bunny, or whatever fuzzy critter she wanted. I'd say no but we ended up with a ton of pets anyway.
Does anyone know about these cars? I am really not much of a car guy and hate these kind of trips. Actually, she is the car expert in the family. She has a 1997 Pontiac Firebird (leather seats, chrome wheels,Pioneer stereo) she will probably be willing to trade.
I'm not sure what kind of advice I need but anything will be appreciated.

The area was experiencing terrible weather so we decided to stop for the night at the Desert Rose RV Park instead of driving through to our original destination. What a great place! It was clean and safe for us...loved the pull-thru sites and the grassy borders between the spaces. We spent a quiet night here before hitting the road again.... More

Beautiful location, friendly staff, felt safe
LOUD air conditioner. It turns off and on constantly. Impossible sleep!
Had to shower on my knees.
Easy to get to downtown. Nice pool. Stunning view--I like that the best. Friendly staff.
The breakfast is modest but adequate--cold cereal, fruit, and donuts
Location was good; hot tub and pool were excellent. housecleaning service people were very friendly and cooperative. Front desk people were very helpful in suggesting restaurants in the area.
Breakfast was just OK; Hours were a bit restrictive and motel was unwilling to open earlier even tho a portion of the guests had early morning appts. Access to the only ice machine was locked off until 7:00 AM. Only1 elevator in the entire motel.
road noise and lumpy bed
carpet torn & dingy, auto light in bathroom, no fan in bathroom (didn't work)
the staff watched our coming and going, we were visiting with other family members & staff came outside to watch them. The mattress caved in middle. We did not leave any valuables or money in room. Other tenants-- made sure the alarm for my truck was on. Will never come here again.
Love the location. The friendly staff.
I didn't like that we got stuck with a smoking room because they don't let you choose when you book through kayak.
Floors were dirty
The lady next door with 3 big dogs she couldn't control
close to downtown palm springs.
not thoroughly clean. sparse amenities. office staff not personable.
it's just a humble little motel on the outskirts of town. I didn't expect much and i didn't get much...but it was clean and affordable and a good night's sleep.
Big room. The staff was courteous and helpful with my late check-in.
The sheets were stained and the bed was very hard. The room had mismatched furniture that was too small for the room.
Not much except the price and proximity to Palm Springs.
We requested a non-smoking room, but they did not give us a non-smoking room and claimed they didn't have any more. We'd came to check in around 1pm of that day, so there shouldn't be any reason they didn't have a non-smoking available!
Cheap. Close to highway 10.
nothing considering the price
Here's why:
We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tonnes of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car hires can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.
More questions or if you have a bad price to report to us
Please send us an
and someone from our team will get back to you promptly.

44 year old woman | Woodstock, GA, USA | Seeking men 30-42 within 500 miles
PICK ME PICK ME! Super amazing & fun :)
I enjoy going to the gym, hanging out with friends, watching sports (baseball, football, hockey(, going to games, and playing some of them as well. I"m very much an active person and enjoy live music, hiking, skiing, working out, softball, golf...I think you get the idea. I also enjoy doing a little movie work on feature films and tv series. Don't get me wrong, I do it for the fun of it, as I have no delusions of being "discovered." LOL. I'll try most anything and really have a sense of adventure. Even if I'm not good at it, I'll do it (case in point - surfing haha)! Also love anything outdoors and love the beach, mountains and travel! I enjoy DOING things (not always sitting around and being a bum lol), altho movie/dinner @ home is great too! I am originally from South Ga but have lived all over - from NY to California and worked all over as well. I have dear friends who would walk across glass for me, so it's important that whomever I date enjoy doing things with them sometimes too. I am NOT a jealous clingy type (and I know women say that allllll the time), but I am a believer that you do things alone sometimes, I do too, and we do things together. It keeps things interesting and doesn't make it stagnant. In a relationship, I am looking for someone who likes to have fun and who isn't just "stuck." Someone who likes to DO things - and not just sit on the couch all night. (Although sometimes that's ok). I like a guys' guy...so I guess if I have to always make all the decisions and hang the pictures in the house, then we probably won't get along. I also like a guy who knows how to be silly but also knows when to be serious.
Baseball, Billiards / Pool, Bowling, Cycling, Dancing, Football, Golf, Hockey, Inline skating, Martial arts, Other types of exercise, Skiing, Swimming, Tennis / Racquet sports, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines, Yoga
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I have Dogs
I like Horses
Middle of the Road
University of Georgia, Athens, GA
I like all kinds of music - especially live music. I enjoy country, as I have alot of friends in that genre, but truly love GOOD music. I also like tv shows that challenge your mind but also have a dirty secret of loving some trash tv too :)
I love the outdoors and anything active. I enjoy the beach, the lake, going out with friends, camping, and going to sporting events - and YES I love it & don't just SAY I do. I also enjoy going to nice dinners or grilling out-I adapt to any situation

Animal Specialty Hospital to provide emergency, specialized pet care
Imagine if your dog had a dire emergency at 3 in the morning. At first glance, it looks like a respiratory infection, but soon his muzzle swells to a point where he can barely breathe. Realization sets in. It will take at least 30 minutes to drive to North Naples, or even further, to Fort Myers for an emergency veterinary exam.
But now, residents in Naples have a new pet hospital that just opened to reach out to for emergency and specialty care. Veterinary doctors at Animal Specialty Hospital of Florida (ASH) have extra credentials in veterinary emergency, internal medicine, surgery, neurology and neurosurgery, physical rehabilitation, and oncology, because every second counts, no matter what level of distress a pet may be facing. The veterinarians at ASH are ready with compassionate care in treating pet emergencies and cases requiring specialized expertise.
Dr. Marc Havig, one of four founders of ASH, took time out of his hectic schedule of opening the first 24/7 emergency hospital in Collier County and the only referral center of its kind in Southwest Florida, to talk about his goals.
"Our primary goal is to partner with your family veterinarian and provide a service for the community of Southwest Florida," he said.
When asked if ASH will also treat large animals like horses and cows, Havig said, "While we are trained to treat dogs, cats, birds, horses, exotic species, and livestock in vet school, we have since undergone species and specialty specific training to treat only dogs, cats, and some exotic species."
Dr. Ashley Ayoob also doubled up her training to add to her veterinary vitae to treat pet emergencies and difficult internal medicine cases.
"Ashley is double board certified by the American College of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care, and the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine, and there are probably less than 20 people in the world who have achieved that type of extensive training," Havig said. "Another one of our specialists, Dr. Eric Carnes, is board certified by the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine in neurology and Dr. Lisa DiBernardi, our oncologist, is certified by both the American College of Veterinary Medicine (Oncology) and the American College of Veterinary Radiology (Radiation Oncology). There is not a more comprehensive group of board certified specialists anywhere in Southwest Florida."
Poised and ready to treat all pet traumas, ASH veterinarians have set up a state-of-the-art facility in their new location which opened on April 8, where 24-hour emergency and specialized care will be just minutes away for many. The high tech equipment at ASH includes both an MRI and a CT scanner, a rehabilitation unit, an intensive care unit, endoscopy and specialized equipment that allow minimally invasive surgery to be performed, and an ultrasonic aspirator used to perform brain surgery.
"The facility will be the only one of its kind south of the University of Florida Veterinary College in Gainesville," Havig said.
Emergency and critical care services are provided on a walk-in basis. Some of the emergency animal services ASH will provide include:
• Trauma treatment (in case a dog or cat is hit by a car, especially if there's fractured bones or infected wounds)
• vomiting and diarrhea
• toxicity from indigestion, topical exposure, or inhalation
• urinary blockage
• systemic infections
• respiratory difficulty
• limping and lameness
Additionally, referral appointments will be available in orthopedic surgery and sports medicine, general surgery, neurology and neurosurgery, internal medicine, oncology, and physical rehabilitation.
The new facility will be a community-oriented specialty practice, too.
"We've initiated conversation with Collier County Domestic Animal Services, the Humane Society, and several local rescue groups, as well as law enforcement canine units," said Havig. "We are planning an open house for the public on Saturday, April 30 from 9 a.m. to noon. Please check our website, www.ashfl.com, for more information."
At any given time, the hospital can accommodate up to 30 animals, and many intakes will be by referrals from local veterinarians. ASH is a referral and specialty hospital, so there will not be boarding, vaccines, flea treatment, microchips, or any routine service that is offered by a general veterinary practice.
"Thumbs up," said Dr. David Randall, the owner and chief veterinarian at Big Cypress Animal Clinic, when he learned of the facility opening soon. "It's great, especially in case of major traumas requiring specialists. It brings Naples into 2011. I have been practicing medicine for 26 years, and there were no ER's here at first. So doctors had to take all of their emergency calls. Then about 15 years ago, a group of doctors got together to start one, which eventually moved to Pine Ridge Road. To have a 24-hour emergency hospital here, is exactly what pet owners need, and deserve."

Recent Port Clyde reviews
"Beautiful! This house provides a place to find serenity and contentment; to de-stress and relax. One week is not long enough. The owners represent the best in hospitality. The attention to detail in the house is amazing. Can't think of what we needed that wasn't provided even when the owner had to make a special trip to get it. The beds are comfortable, views are spectacular, location is convenient to Port Clyde General Store and 2 restaurants. Rent a kayak and cruise the coastline. Sit on the deck and watch the ducks, eagles, hummingbird, and herons. Smell the salt air mixed liberally with the beautiful roses. Can't wait to come back."Guest: CJ Date of Stay: July 2014 Review Submitted: July 25, 2014View listing
"Our stay at Cousins Cove was absolutely fantastic. We were a large group, many families coming together to spend a week in Port Clyde. The house was spotless upon arrival, with plenty of linens and towels provided. There are essentially 3 wings of the house, allowing for a large group to have the best of both worlds, privacy in the sleeping areas and large accommodating common space for gathering. My family stayed upstairs, my husband and I in the master, my 2 children in the 2 twin bedroom and we shared a full bath. Our bedroom, spacious and bathed in soothing beach colors, provided lots of closet space and drawers for our belongings. But nothing compares to waking up each morning to THAT VIEW! Every corner of this house offers views onto the most breathtaking vista, the tidal water, the rocks, the expanse of sea. The quality of the light in this part of the world is something not to be missed. Our family had plenty of room to gather around the dining table for grand meals and epic games. The house is furnished, in my opinion, perfectly. Comfortable and inviting, not fussy at all. The living room is a wonderful gathering place, decorated with a nod to the nautical. My absolute favorite time of the day was sunset. Cocktails on the back porch, overlooking the kids running wild in the yard, with the shifting sun light over the water. The screened porch served as a perfect location for our lobster dinners at night and for coffee in the morning. The owners, Mark and Alice, could not have been more accommodating hosts. Making valuable recommendations for places to go and things to see! They even invited to take us out on their sail boat for what turned out to be, one of the highlights of the trip. Seeing Maine from the water was such a treat! I cannot recommend this property enough. We have rented many houses over the years, and this remains one of the best and one we will surely be returning to."Guest: Melissa D.

"The Port Clyde house is great. It was a reasonable size and layout for two people and our somewhat mobility challenged dogs. The view from the living room was amazing... We could have sat and ocean/boat/wildlife/people watched for the entire week and been thrilled... But there are some nifty sites so close by that even our older pup got to sightsee. The house is comfortable, cheery and bright. There is cable and internet, but honestly, if you are watching television instead of looking out that window, you are so missing out. Herons, cormorants, osprey, eider ducks with fifty billion ducklings, eagles, woodcocks, and a white tailed deer all made an appearance in the yard in the week we visited. Just a fantastic location and a wonderfully homey place. Would recommend this place highly (just save us a spot!) Laundry on site was also a wonderful amenity, as coastal Maine in early June means bringing days worth of both summer and winter clothes and still finding you didn't quite bring enough of the right type of either. Awesome place, awesome owners."Guest: Shoe Date of Stay: June 2015 Review Submitted: June 21, 2015View listing
"My family and I really enjoyed the cottage. My kids especially loved that the beach was within walking distance so they could go every day when it was low tide. I would definitely recommend this cottage to any family looking for a quiet, restful beach vacation. We were able to mark "Eating lobster in Maine" off my mom's bucket list! We enjoyed eating at the Black Harpoon, The Happy Clam, Harjula's icecream and the School House Bakery. We bought live lobster from Miller's and they were deee-licious! :) Jeanine was very nice and helpful and worked with us so we could bring my parents' two yorkies with us also."Guest: Inspiredbyink Date of Stay: July 2014 Review Submitted: August 8, 2014View listing
