Company closing in on vaccine for killer virus in pigs
A Manitoba biotech company says it is about three months away from producing an effective vaccine to combat a highly contagious and deadly virus that has killed millions of baby pigs in North America.
Zyme Fast Inc., which has a lab just outside Winnipeg in the RM of Springfield, said the new vaccine will be a variation of a vaccine it developed about three years ago to successfully combat an Asian strain of the same virus. The virus is called porcine epidemic diarrhea, or PED for short.
"Not only is it effective in protecting piglets from contracting PED, it also cures those already infected," Zyme Fast president Terence Sellen said Tuesday. "To the best of our knowledge, the Zyme Fast technology is the only one used in China."
Sellen said the primary North American strain of the virus shares about 92 per cent of the characteristics of the Asian variety. So Zyme Fast only needs to modify the Asian vaccine to make it nearly 100 per cent effective against the North American strain, rather than having to develop a whole new vaccine from scratch.
"We use a proven vaccine research and design protocol that we've developed and used to produce the Asian PED vaccine as well as other effective vaccines and animal-health products that are delivered as powdered animal-feed supplements," Sellen said. "(So) barring any unexpected glitches, we're confident we can have an effective vaccine ready for approval in about three months."
He said while several pharmaceutical companies are also reported to be working on a vaccine, media reports say they're at least a year away from producing a product.
Zyme Fast is working closely with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, which approached it about a month ago to see if it was working on a vaccine for the North America strain of the virus. It's also working closely with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), which will have to approve the new vaccine before it can be used by Canadian hog producers, and with local hog industry's umbrella organization -- the Manitoba Pork Council (MPC).
Sellen said Zyme Fast's local lab, which has a staff of six, has the capacity to produce the vaccine itself. It will likely need to hire only one additional worker.
But if the new vaccine is fast-tracked for use in Canada and the United States, it will likely generate millions of dollars in additional revenues for the firm, he added.
A MPC official said a made-in-Manitoba vaccine could provide a huge benefit for the local pork industry in its ongoing battle to prevent PED from ravaging herds here.
Mark Fynn, the MPC's animal care specialist, said the big benefit to using the Zyme Fast vaccine is that it's an egg-yolk antibody product that can be administered as a food supplement. The piglets ingest it and it takes effect almost immediately, rather than taking several days as would be the case with a traditional vaccine administered with a needle.
"So this type of product seems really promising... It will be a big deal for the industry in Manitoba, and an even bigger deal for the industries in Ontario and the U.S.," Fynn said.
The virus has killed millions of piglets in the U.S. since it was first discovered there last May, and there are more than 24 confirmed cases in Ontario since it was discovered there in late January. However, Manitoba has had only one confirmed case so far.
Although Sellen says the vaccine can prevent pigs from getting the virus, Fynn said the MPC will likely let producers decide whether they want to use it as preventative tool.
He said the council's position is maintaining proper bio-security measures on the farm is still the most effective defence against the spread of the virus. MPC officials believe the reason the virus hasn't spread beyond the one farm is because the local industry and most of its producers already had stringent bio-security protocols in place before the virus arrived, likely on a truck from the U.S.

Sona was very welcoming and helpful. The room was in good condition and practical; the three 2-person beds were great. Also, the location was near center, making it possible to walk there.
The apartment was clean and tidy when we arrived and had everything we needed. Sona called to the apartment on the first morning and helped us out on everything from the best trams to help get around Prague to the best tourist attractions to see in our limited time. Overall we were very happy with the apartment and would certainly recommend it to anyone visiting Prague.
Sona is very hospitable hostess, the apartments are located in a quiet area, near a park with a playground. The apartment has everything you need. Excellent quality for the money.
Хорошие, довольно большие апартаменты в тихом спокойном районе, рядом парк с детской площадкой. До центра 15-20 минут пешком. В квартире было все необходимое для проживания. Соня была очень гостеприимной и всегда на связи. За свои деньги очень неплохой вариант.
Dear Sona, we like ur house very much!!! The location is really comfortable and ur appartment is very clean and cosy! U r a professional host as I think:) As u take care about ur guests, the atmosphere in ur house is like in a small hotel. And the price is very good. We like it very much!!!
I wish u good guests!
Best wishes, Angelina.
Sonja was great host, very nice and welcoming and took care of all our needs and requests. The apartment is very nice, clean and organized with all that you need for a nice stay. Compertable public transportation and very nice park near by.
Thanks Sonja and take care!
Sona was great. Very welcoming and very communicative. If I had any questions she answered almost immediately. The apartment is very near to a tram that goes through much of town, and the neighborhood felt very safe. Thanks Sona for the wonderful stay.
Really nice place for a good price! Everything was very clean, and all furniture was very functional. Good location in a quiet neighborhood, but still close enough to the city. There was a nice little folder with useful information, would definitely consider staying here again!

The Syracuse Chiefs, the Triple-A affiliate of the Washington Nationals, shut out the Louisville Bats, 5-0, on Thursday night. Left-hander Danny Rosenbaum pitched into the seventh inning to earn the win, giving Syracuse a sixth victory in seven games on its 10-game road trip.
Josh Johnson started the third inning for Syracuse (51-60) with a double to left field against Bats left-hander Ryan Dennick. After a Jhonatan Solano fly out advanced Johnson to third base, Rosenbaum stepped up to bat with the infield in. He grounded a ball toward center field and off the glove of shortstop Kristopher Negron, who made a leaping attempt, to score Johnson and give the Chiefs a 1-0 lead. The play was ruled an error against Negron.
The Chiefs opened the floodgates against Dennick in the fourth inning. Tyler Moore doubled to begin the frame, and Chris Marrero's groundout to second base advanced Moore to third. Third baseman Zach Walters, next up, bounced a ball to third baseman Neftali Soto, whose throw to the plate was mishandled by catcher Nevin Ashley. Moore slid in safely to put the Chiefs ahead by a 2-0 score. After a Johnson walk, Solano smashed a double down the left-field line, scoring both Walters and Johnson for a 4-0 Syracuse advantage.
Those runs were more than enough for Rosenbaum, who held Louisville (55-59) in check throughout six-and-two-thirds scoreless innings. He allowed eight hits and one walk while striking out six batters in the game.
Syracuse picked up an extra run in the eighth inning. Danny Espinosa singled on Nick Christiani's first pitch of the frame and advanced to third base on a fielder's-choice ground ball to third base that Soto tossed into right field for a throwing error. Later in the frame, Espinosa raced home from third base on a wild pitch.
Syracuse aims for a series win in the last of a four-game set on Friday night at 7:05. Chiefs right-hander Tanner Roark and Bats right-hander Chad Reineke are the scheduled starters.

Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys – I REALLY enjoyed Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys! This was a WWII book about how the people of Lithuania were treated, mainly the non-Jews. Don't let the title throw you off, it has NOTHING to do with any of "shades of gray" book. This one is actually WORTH reading! :)
Inman, a wounded Confederate soldier, leaves the hospital where he is being treated, determined to walk home to his sweetheart Ada. He finds the land and the girl he remembers to be changed by the war. This book is a bit depressing but a great historical fiction read. Lengthy but worth the number of pages. Liked the movie, too.

Christy Hemme is backstage with Matt Morgan, she asks about his match with Hernandez tonight. Morgan says Hernandez has been a thorn in his side since he got back from Mexico. Morgan says tonight he's getting back on track, and he's doing that by going through Hernandez. He says tonight he's going to punt Hernandez's football head back to Mexico.
"The Pope" D'Angelo Dinero vs. Samoa Joe
The bell rings, and the crowd thinks Joe is going to kill Pope. Pope looks apprehensive to begin the match, and he tries to climb but Joe pulls him back down. Pope hits Joe with a cheap shot but Joe comes back with a series of jabs. Pope is able to return the favor with a body slam, but then he turns around into a big clothesline and another series of jabs that sits Pope down in the corner. Joe splashes Pope, then hits a giant kick to Pope's head that puts him down again. Joe catches Pope with a big chop, and another. A third puts Pope down and he begins to beg off, but when Joe goes to attack, Pope throws Joe head first into the turnbuckle. Pope goes to work with a series of blows to Joe's midsection, but Joe comes back with another chop. Pope goes to climb the cage again, but Joe climbs up and on the top rope, slams his head into the cage wall. Dinero crotches himself, and Joe hits a running kick to the chest to knock Dinero free. Joe face washes Dinero repeatedly in the corner.
Pope is able to pull the ref into the way, distraction Joe, and this allows him to throw Joe head first into the cage wall. Pope rips away at Joe's eyes and hits him with a couple of rights. Joe responds with a couple of rights of his own, then a couple of kicks, but Pope comes up with the 4 Up and that's good for a two count. The camera angles are really weird tonight, trying to showcase the crowd. Pope locks in a rear chin lock, and the feed freezes for a second. When it comes back, Joe reverses only to be clotheslines straight down to the canvas. Pope hits Joe with a couple of back hands to the face, but when he charges, Joe hits Pope with a quick snap power slam.
Pope and Joe trade slaps in the middle of the ring, and Joe can't be stopped, slapping repeatedly before hitting a Manhattan drop, big kick, and senton splash, but he still can't put Pope down for three. Joe hits a big leg lariat from the middle rope, but can only get a two count. Joe sits Pope up on the top rope, then connects with a big muscle buster, but he's too close to the ropes, and Pope gets his leg on the bottom rope, breaking the count.
Pope goes right back to trying to climb the cage again, but Joe grabs Pope by the tights, and Pope's full behind is exposed. Pope fights Joe off, sending him to the canvas, and pulling up his trunks. Pope hits a big elbow drop that's good for a one count, then a lungblower that's good for two. Pope pulls down his knee pads and goes for the DDE, but Joe catches him and slams him back first into the cage. Joe hits the muscle buster again, then locks in the rear naked choke in the middle of the ring. Pope taps out clean right in the middle of the ring.

Miami-Dade Police Sergeant Assaulted Girlfriend Because She Wouldn't Hold His Hand
Miami-Dade Police Sgt. Reinaldo Ruiz was arrested Friday by Broward Sheriff's Office deputies at his Southwest Ranches home on domestic violence charges. It seems his rampage stems from the fact that the victim, whom he was dating, refused to hold his hand at a Miami Heat game. The incident that followed involves semiautomatic weapons, stranding the woman at the arena, and dragging her around the house by her hair, according to the arrest affidavit.
Ruiz, who makes more than $100,000 a year working for the county, was attending the March 27 Heat matchup against the Houston Rockets. His date refused to hold his hand at the game, and Ruiz was so infuriated he refused to give her a ride back to his home.
So the woman was forced to take a cab more than 30 miles back to the house.
When she arrived, Ruiz was waiting with a semiautomatic pistol. He loaded the gun and made the woman pack her bags.
When she tried to call 911, Ruiz allegedly knocked the phone out of her hand and dumped the contents of her luggage.
Ruiz then grabbed the woman by her hair and dragged her around the house.
She was able to flee to a closet and dial 911. By that time, though, Ruiz had brought out his AR-15 assault rifle. He eventually forced the woman out of the house before BSO deputies arrived and arrested him.
Ruiz has been relieved of duty with pay.

Fire danger to diminish next week in southeastern AustraliaBrett Dutschke, Thursday October 17, 2013 - 19:04 EDT
Southern parts of Australia have been dealt many days of severe fire danger this season but significant easing in conditions is due as early as next week.
This will be welcome news for many fire fighters who have been battling blazes with high frequency since August in southeastern states, particularly in New South Wales.
Today will be the worst fire-weather day for the next week or so. Fire danger ratings have reached extreme in central parts of NSW, including the Sydney area, even catastrophic in some parts. Some parts, including Bankstown, Camden and Sydney Airport, have recorded their highest fire danger rating in around a decade.
Conditions will deteriorate again this weekend across South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria, the ACT and into Monday in NSW but it won't become as bad as today due to lighter winds and higher humidity.
From next Tuesday conditions should improve enough for the hazard-control program to resume in some areas. Hazard control (burn-offs) have been put on hold recently due to the extreme fire weather.
Next week and much of the following week will be cooler, calmer, more humid with an increased chance of rainfall. This will lead to a reduction in fire danger.
The weather pattern is changing, as it typically does at this time of year. The belt of high pressure is starting to slip south, causing any intense cold fronts to shift further south, effectively weakening the wind changes across southeastern Australia.
It has been the intense fronts which have generated strong winds. The fronts have been drawing the hotter-and-drier-than-normal air from central Australia to the coast before bringing abrupt colder changes.
With this shift in weather pattern it means that the area of highest fire danger will move to central Australia and the tropics and edge into Western Australia.
For southeastern Australia, this doesn't mean the bushfire season is over. There will still be some days of concern in November and during summer.

Park at the end of the Boat Club...always looks tiny from the road, suprising once you get out there. Ledgy short take-off fades quickly into deep water. Rocks in lineup. Easy paddle from boat ramp. Slippery entry.
It will get debunked as a myth for sure, hence "Illusions". Next time the pa is 3-4 foot, go and take a nosey at mid-high incoming tide. Entertaining because it is never surfed.
Generally, it is a pretty average spot. Will break for an hour two, then be flat. Low tide will see you skewered on the rocks...takeoff is in knee deep water with kelp.

Bitter Kris - That must be because you haven't ridden it. Look at my description, it's crappy, ledgey right and goes once in a blue moon at the right tide, but it's rideable for a drop, bottom turn, snap then fade. But then that describes most of the waves in Plimmerton. And no, I've never surfed off the firestation becauses it's too fat to ride.

arghhh! - Is this the same guy that posted plimmerton sand bar? gimmie ur damn addy im guna cum round and rip out ur pc for being an idiot... next ur gunan tell people the break of the fire station is surfable! this is not a break! im not saying this to be protective im sayng this cause every man and his dog with throw rocks at you if you surf here for being a twitt! ud get better chances of getting waves at karehana bay.. the beach infront of the boat club where people learn to surf! on the big huge days once a year you can get a wave from this "Illusions" to balcks... tkaes about 3 waves but this ledgey right he is talking about is a myth it looks like it have potential if the sea wall continued but it doesn't it drops off into deep water its not rideable

After writing a list for Flavorpill about 33 Women Music Critics You Need to Read, I realized a few things:
1) It can be dangerous to your ego to write about scribes that you really admire. As you list their accomplishments and great works, you start to get self-conscious about your own work and wonder 'how the hell can I measure up to that?'
2) You realize that some writers should be doing a better job of promoting their own work, by having a homepage with links to their articles and a resume of their work (which reminds me that I gotta do the same).
3) Unless you're willing to do a list of 1000, you'll never get all the items that you'll want to on any list. And even if you do 1000, you'll still be missing some. For this particular list, I started with 15, then 20, then 25, then 30 and ended up with 33. Even then, I started realizing that I missed a number of people that I should have included there. You can't be all-inclusive.
4) A number of the people on the list wrote to thank me profusely and I said to them 'you earned it!' It makes me think that they don't get anywhere near the recognition that they deserve.

Family-owned Cass Cable TV, a communications company providing cable services to central Illinois and Missouri, is making a change to its encoding, grooming, rate-shaping and decoding solutions to enable digital simulcasting of its cable programming.
Cass is deploying a variety of technologies from Scopus Video Networks, including Scopus E-1200 encoders, IVG-7100/7300 Intelligent Video Gateway (IVG) platforms, UID-2912 dense edge decoders and NMS management software into its headends.
Scopus E-1200 encoders will be used to digitize TV feeds prior to transport over an IP network to multiple Cass cable headends in central Illinois and Missouri. At each headend, the Scopus IVG aggregates the feeds and provides advanced processing capabilities such as joint transrating, grooming and rate shaping for better channel utilization and bandwidth efficiency. The UID-2912 IP dense edge decoders will decode the digital feeds back to analog, enabling Cass to broadcast content to digital and analog subscribers simultaneously using a single IP video distribution network.
The entire system is managed and monitored by Scopus' Network Management System (NMS) — a critical system element that enables full system control and monitoring from the encoder to the edge.

Earthquake-forged music premieres in Wellington
Relevant offers
Jo Burzynska was at home in Lyttelton, Christchurch, when the quake struck on February 22, 2011.
The sound artist, who performs as Stanier Black-Five, first gathered her senses, she recalls, before picking up her phone, purse and recording device.
As she fled her home, she pressed the record button of the recording device and placed it on her front doorstep.
The hour-long recording she took on that day has been turned into a soundscape, a piece of sonic art.
"I can't stop recording things. It's funny that it was part of my emergency pack," Burzynska says.
"I left it running while everything unfolded . . . the sheer number of aftershocks; I wasn't conscious of there being as many as there were. The sounds on the street, alarms going off, people gathering and talking on the street, the radio being turned on and hearing what was happening in Christchurch. It's a powerful document of what happened in my street after the earthquake." Later she recorded more general sounds. Her home being evacuated because of the threat of a boulder coming down, helicopters hovering overhead, early demolitions of Lyttelton buildings.
In collaboration with Melbourne sound artist Malcolm Riddoch, Burzynska has called the piece Body Waves.
Thanks to the support of the Sonic Arts programme at the New Zealand School of Music (a joint venture of Massey University and Victoria University of Wellington), and Massey University College of Creative Arts, the piece will have its New Zealand debut at the Great Hall at Massey University in Wellington on July 18.
"It's an evening of four experimental electronic music works exploring the natural harmonic resonance of one of the largest acoustic spaces in New Zealand - the Great Hall ," Burzynska explains.
Riddoch specialises in the use of the Larsen effect (microphone feedback) to "ring out" the unique resonant frequencies of an acoustic space. The four works track the evolution of his practice from simple pure tones through interference effects with acoustic instruments to the use of acoustically derived digital feedback controllers driving the electronic manipulation of sound. The only audio source for these first three works is the ambient noise within the acoustic space itself.
The final work, Body Waves with Burzynska, tunes her Christchurch earthquake infrasonic soundscape into the lowest fundamental resonant frequencies of the Great Hall to create music that goes beyond the auditory system to be felt in the body.
"We called the work Body Waves, as this is one of the two types of seismic waves - the ones which travel through the interior of the Earth rather than the surface. It also refers to the way the performance is perceived, which is as much through the body as via the ears," she explains.
"My sister, who is deaf, will be at the Wellington premiere. It's exciting for her as her world is a lot more focused on those low frequencies she can feel.
"The space at Massey is quite large so it will be exciting to attempt it there." The pair have been invited to perform it at the International Computer Music symposium in Slovenia in September.
Seismic waves are actually acoustic waves, soundwaves travelling from the source of an earthquake. However, we can't hear them as they pass through the medium of the Earth at a frequency too low for humans to register. Body Waves accentuates the lower frequency harmonics to create music that goes beyond the auditory system to be felt in the body.
Every performance venue has a unique set of natural resonant frequencies and Riddich uses a microphone to "ring out" a space and find that acoustic space's dominant feedback frequencies.
Using the lowest of these resonances he can tune Burzynska's earthquake soundscape to the space in which it is performed.
The result is like being in an enormous pipe organ except there is only one pipe and you're in it. The fixtures shake and your whole body resonates. This is music you can feel.
Infrasound refers to extreme bass waves or vibrations, those with a frequency below the audibility range of the human ear.
Even though we cannot hear these waves, they can be felt.
Such frequencies have been shown to produce a range of effects in some people, including anxiety, extreme sorrow and chills.
Burzynska describes herself as a "low-frequency nerd", and was curious about the effect her quake recordings might have on the body.
An early version of the soundscape was first performed at the Lines of Flight Festival, part of the Dunedin Fringe Festival, held just a month after the 2011 quake.
"I had to get a performance together for the festival and my head was all over the place at that point," Burzynska recalls. "I thought what on earth am I going to do? Then it struck me I had all these recordings, so I sat down and listened through.
"The first listen-through was quite powerful emotionally just listening back to those sounds.
"I made a piece of music using those recordings. I edited the samples and extracted bits out of those recordings and made it a sound collage for that festival. That was the first time I did anything with the recordings. I was nervous because it was so deeply personal, but hearing it in a live situation it sounded good regardless of my emotional connection with it; the sounds were amazing." She describes it as more of a relaxing experience than one might imagine.
"I like the rhythmical aspects of it as well.
"I used all my best aftershocks, sometimes at the ends of them people in the street were saying, 'Oohhh'.
"I arranged it like it was a journey through the experience, starting with the aftershocks, then the sirens and helicopters. I put little snatches in of the Lyttelton community party we had on the Saturday, and then the demolition. They create big crashes of sound so it tied in.
"Throughout the piece there are aftershocks coming through and it worked well sonically doing it that way." At the Dunedin performance, people that had fled to the city from Christchurch were among the crowd and it was an emotional event.
"It was just a month after the quake and we were all still processing what had happened. Someone did cry during that performance; there was a lot of emotion, but everyone was quite positive about it; they were emotional, but thought it was a good thing to do." The next step was, she says, making the soundscape "more visceral, more like an earthquake".
"I was talking to Malcolm Riddich who does things with vibrating spaces using the fundamental frequencies and we decided to do a collaboration that enhanced those low-frequency aspects of the recordings. It's a quadrophonic performance, the audience are in the middle with lots of sub-woofers around them so you get those powerful bass frequencies."
The next performance, at the Sound Spectrum Festival in Perth in May, was completely different, she says.
"It's not a simulation of an earthquake; it is an artistic arrangement of sound. In Perth, not having experienced many earthquakes if at all, they were more intrigued by it.
"The room was vibrating. When you get the fundamental frequency of the room, you are vibrating; when you talk, your voice vibrates, and you feel it in your chest cavity; you can hear the sound as well, but one of the most powerful things about it is that it is music that you feel." The theme of this year's International Computer Music conference is non-cochlear music, interpreted as being music that is conceptual or felt rather than heard. The pair submitted Body Waves and were gratified by the response.
"It moves around every year, this year it's being held in Slovenia. They described Body Waves as a 'must-have' for the festival.
"There are not that many people who have substantial recordings of earthquakes. Some people have done things, pitching seismic recordings up so it puts it into the frequency range you can hear, but not many recordings of earthquakes.
"Also, power outages often coincide with quakes, so people usually only capture the beginning of a quake." The performance is usually no more than 15 to 20 minutes long and different every time it is performed.
Burzynska describes it as "intense experience" which is probably better kept short. "I mix it live as we go. It's a matter of what feels right on the night of the performance." After the conference in Slovenia, it will also be performed in London following an invitation from Goldsmiths University.
Burzynska is also a professional wine writer and combining it with her sound artist enthusiasm was a natural progression.
This month she has been in Italy, where she has been invited to match wine and music. She describes it as a "multi-sensory experience".
"It's a sound and wine artist residency, culminating in a multi- sensory performance in town square. I'm recording at the vineyards and then making a piece of music that works with the wines. I'm going to go in and select three wines and make the soundscape which enhances the different wines.
"It's a fascinating area, one that is only recently starting to be explored. Higher frequencies work with higher acid wines, and lower ones work with more full-bodied, tannic ones. The wines will be brought to the audience. It's an outdoor performance and all of the sound samples will come from vineyards so it will be a circular thing." Another project close to her heart is a CD of recordings of Lyttelton, the port town. She is in talks with American and European labels to release it.

Malcolm Riddoch presents Variations on Electroacoustic Feedback and Stanier Black-Five and Riddoch's Body Waves, The Great Hall, Museum Building, Massey University, Wellington, July 18, 8pm.
