|SCALDOPACK SPRL. Patent applications
|Patent application number
|PACKAGING FOR A LIQUID FILLING MATERIAL, AND METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PRODUCING IT - A packaging for a liquid filling with a product packaging pouch made out of a liquid-tight and elastic material and having a reaction chamber pouch made out of a liquid-tight and elastic material. The reaction chamber pouch is completely closed, and is arranged inside the product packaging pouch and partially filled with a first reactant. An inner pouch made out of a liquid-tight and elastic material is completely closed, is arranged inside the reaction chamber pouch and exhibits a predetermined breaking point that yields when its interior pressure is increased, and is filled with a second reactant. The first and second reactant induce a temperature change upon coming into contact with each other. As a result, a temperature change can be initiated by the user on the one hand, while minimizing the risk that the filling will become contaminated with chemicals on the other.
|METHOD FOR CONTROLLED TEMPERATURE CHANGE OF SUBSTANCES - A method for controlled temperature change of substances, in which the course of an endo- or exothermic reaction of one or several reactants in aqueous solution, which is in direct or indirect contact with the substances, is influenced using galenic methods is disclosed. At least one of the reactants is present in a solid form and is at least partly included in a galenic matrix. The galenic matrix is at least partly in a form such as tablets, granules, prills, pellets, rods or combinations thereof. The galenic matrix is differently strongly pressed and/or agglomerated in at least one of different regions and different parts. Also disclosed is a galenic matrix containing at least one solid reactant and methods of using such a galenic matrix.

- Listeria victim's families meeting with farmers
Cantaloupe has been identified as the "likely source" of a multi-state listeria outbreak, which has been fatal in Colorado.
Nine listeria cases in Colorado have been linked to a multi-state outbreak, which includes potentially related cases in Texas and Nebraska, according to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.
Two people in Colorado died from listeriosis, but only one of those two cases has been linked to the multi-state outbreak.
The state recently reported 13 listeria cases, but lab results on four of those cases are "pending or are not linked to the multi-state investigation," the state health department said in a news release.
All nine of Colorado's confirmed linked cases consumed cantaloupe, the release said. No specific source of the contaminated product has been identified.
"While the investigation into the source of the listeria outbreak is continuing, it is prudent for people who are at high risk for listeria infection to avoid consumption of cantaloupe," said Dr. Chris Urbina, chief medical officer with the state health department.
Listeria cases in Colorado have been confirmed in the following counties: Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, Denver, Douglas, El Paso, Jefferson, Larimer and Weld.
Victims range in age from the 30s to the 90s, the health department said. The average victim age is 84 and the majority of victims are women.
All of the Colorado victims were hospitalized.
Pregnant women and people over the age of 60 are at high risk for listeriosis. People with weakened immune systems from transplants or certain chronic diseases, immunosuppressive therapies, or medications, are also highly susceptible.
Healthy adults rarely develop the illness, the health department said.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is coordinating the multi-state investigation with health staffers in the affected states.
People at risk of listeriosis should also avoid deli meats — unless reheated to an internal temperature of 165 Fahrenheit — refrigerated pâté or meat spreads, and refrigerated smoked seafood. Soft cheeses such as queso fresco and brie should also be avoided unless they're made with pasteurized milk.
Symptoms can include fever, muscle aches, diarrhea, headache, stiff neck, confusion and convulsions. Listeriosis can cause miscarriages and stillbirths, the health department warns.
Antibiotics, given promptly, can help cure the illness and prevent infection of a fetus.

Nearly half of U.S. residents have Internet connection speeds that do not meet the Federal Communications Commission's minimum broadband standards and the U.S. ranks in the bottom half of the world in broadband speed, according to a new report.
As millions of holiday shoppers purchase computers and equipment to service or upgrade the ones they already have a major union, the NAACP and the Sierra Club have come together to launch a campaign for what they say is a much needed faster and more available Internet in the United States.
The 2010 Report of Internet Speeds in all 50 States, released Dec. 15 by the Communications Workers of America, also found that "there are wide areas of the nation, both rural and urban, that do not have any broadband access at all. We even trail countries like Romania in broadband speed."
The labor movement sees improvement and extension of Internet service as key to the entire economy.
"Just as the interstate highway system opened up the nation to fast transportation of goods and services in the 20th century, the road to economic prosperity in the 21st century rides on the Internet highway," said James Parks, a writer for AFL-CIO's national website.
"Improving broadband deployment, connection speeds, and adoption will help facilitate job and business growth across the nation," said CWA President Larry Cohen at a news conference where he released the report and announced that his union was working with the NAACP and the Sierra club in the new Internet campaign.
Hilary Shelton, the NAACP's senior vice president for advocacy and policy, explained why his group sees Internet speed and availability as a civil rights issue: "Every American, regardless of race, gender, ethnicity, income or geographic location should have affordable access to high-speed Internet. This is essential to economic growth and will help advance and improve our global competitiveness."
Lack of access to high-speed Internet is part of a continuing digital divide among Americans.
The CWA report shows that in urban and suburban areas, 70 percent of households subscribe to broadband, with only 50 percent of rural households subscribing to the service. For Americans who make more than $75,000 a year, 87 percent get broadband while only 45 percent who earn less than $30,000 subscribe.
Carl Pope, chairman of the Sierra club, was asked to explain why a movement to preserve the environment was joining labor and civil rights leaders to fight for a bigger, faster Internet.
"Broadband helps build sustainable communities by eliminating the barriers of distance, so people in rural areas can have access to information and the 21st century networks needed to strengthen and grow the economy," he said. "It helps conserve energy by cutting travel-related carbon emissions and promotes energy efficiency through broadband-enabled smart grids and smart meters."
The Obama administration, through the FCC, is pushing for completion of a National Broadband Plan, which the commission says, is a top priority. FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski has actually endorsed the CWA report, saying "it shows the need for investment in higher speed broadband networks to support America's critical applications."
The report shows that the current rate of increase in U.S. Internet connection speed is so slow, it will take the United States 60 years to catch up to current Internet speeds in South Korea, the country with the fastest Internet connections.
Northeastern states topped the graph on Internet speed, with western and southern states staying on the bottom. The five fastest states, according to the report are Delaware, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Maryland and New York. Among the slowest were Montana, Wyoming, Arkansas and Mississippi.

In the past, orientation changes and AsyncTask (and other long running background tasks) have not played well with each other. There's always been the issue of knowing what tasks (or threads) are still running in the newly created activity (from an orientation change), and what to do when a task ends while an Activity isn't attached.
Even with Fragments and the LoaderManager, this still seems to be a problem to me.
What is the preferred way these days, to manage arbitrary long running tasks and orientation changes? To know what tasks are running in the newly created activity. To make sure a task doesn't try to deliver it's information when an Activity isn't attached.
Thank you

Vicki Rodick Frame's hitchhiking story is my favorite one so far:
"In 1953, my family moved to Kenner, and my daddy worked in New Orleans.
"Two boys, 12 and 10, hitchhiked on Jefferson Highway every morning to go to school. Daddy gave them a ride so they could save bus money.
"I was 6 years old at the time.
"The 12-year-old became a family friend who baby-sat me and my brothers on occasion.
"He remained a family friend, and we began dating when I was 17.
"We married when I was 20, and were married for 46 years until he died in February.
"When the subject of hitchhikers came up, we always joked that my daddy would never have picked them up if he had known he'd 'lose' his daughter to one!"
Susan Gremillion says, "My two grandsons, Evan Jones, 7, and Lane Jones, 2, were recently playing 'superheroes' in their living room.
"They donned capes and began chasing each other around the coffee table.
"Suddenly, Evan ran too close to the coffee table and stubbed his toe.
"He immediately fell to the floor, shrieking, 'My toe! My toe!'
"Lane stopped and stared at his brother momentarily. Then his little face lit up and he said, 'I know! I'll get my TOW truck!'"
Ann E. Platt says the Advocate story about her nephew, "croc doc" Dr. Steven Platt, included a photo of him with crocodile eggs in which he seems to have a cigarette in his mouth.
She asked him about it, and he replied, "Actually, it's a white pencil that I was using to mark the tops of the croc eggs.
"It does look like a cig, though, and I've had several people write and ask if I smoked.
"I tell them 'Yes,' as I'm hoping to be the next poster child for Big Tobacco.
"Big Tobacco has plenty of money, and perhaps if I let them use me for advertising purposes, they'd fund our conservation work."
Charles Young says our mention of Rugby Academy in New Orleans "brought back some fond memories.
"I graduated from Rugby in 1960 and was battalion commander for the entire school with the rank of major.
"Periodically during the school year, we assembled the upper grades in full formation in front of school to raise the colors to start the day.
"The St. Charles Avenue streetcars would usually stop to allow riders to witness the ceremonies, and automobile traffic would slow to a crawl. Pedestrians would stop until the formation was dismissed.
"The Rugby uniform closely resembled those at Virginia Military Institute and West Point. The cadets drilled daily with rifles, and officers carried sabres. Girl cadets (Rugby was coed) also drilled in uniform.
Camille Harrison Williams says on the Saturday night before Father's Day, "my husband, 2-year-old daughter and I were dining at the Outback Steakhouse on Jones Creek Road.
"We asked for our check, and the server informed us that one of the couples dining at the same time had taken care of our check and written us a note to have a 'Happy Father's Day.'
"From the bottom of our hearts, we would like to thank Mr. and Mrs. Anonymous.

"Did you hear about the two guys who stole a calendar?" asks Shirley Fleniken.
"They each got six months."
Algie Petrere was dining out the other night when she observed this scene:
A waiter brings the customer the steak he ordered, but the waiter's thumb is resting on the meat.
"Are you crazy?" yells the customer. "You bring my food with your hand on my steak?"
"What?" answers the waiter. "You want it to fall on the floor again?"

This week, International Baccalaureate educators interviewed staff, students and parents of Wauwatosa Catholic School to determine its official authorization as an IB learning institution.
IB is an international organization offering curricula to schools based on specific trans-disciplinary themes, learner attitudes, key concepts, internationalism, learner profile words and more, all based on intercultural understanding and respect. Wauwatosa Catholic School will be the state's first IB authorized Catholic elementary school and Wisconsin's eighth IB-authorized school in general.
"It's an honor; it's very exciting," said 4K teacher Holly Bourbonais.
Applying for IB authorization can take up to four years. All parties involved with the school need to be on board because planning is done collaboratively, said Jaime Veal, IB coordinator at Lowell Elementary.
IB schools use IB curricula in addition to the state requirements. For example, the school will highlight one of IB's 10 Learner Profile qualities — caring, open-minded, inquirer, risk-taker, balanced — and study that particular word in depth.
Patricia Pingitore, parent of two Tosa Catholic students, said her second-grade daughter Olivia wrote in an autobiographical essay that her friendship with her best friend has made her more open-minded.
"It's fun to hear them talk and use the terminology," Pingitore said.
IB educators interview students, staff and parents to ensure they are upholding, teaching and practicing IB's set of standards. After two days of interviews, each lasting about 30 minutes, IB educators will write a report and send it back to the international organization. Tosa Catholic will receive its letter of authorization in up to two months based on IB's decision.
Once authorized, Tosa Catholic will be re-evaluated every four and then every five years to ensure it is growing and working with integrity, said Kirsten Wickman, IB educator.
Sophia Steffen, fifth grade, said during her interview "it was cool to talk about how IB interacts in our daily lives." Maura Mitchell, fifth grade, said "we really take pride in our community of learning. We all work together."
Wauwatosa Catholic School applied for IB authorization after St. Pius X and St. Bernard merged parish schools in 2011-12.
"It's a great fit to have [Catholic] and [IB] go together," said Principal Heidi Hernandez. "I tell parents we are a Catholic school first and an IB school second. We don't want to lose our identity as a Catholic institution."

CeBIT 2009: Intel Announces 32-Nanometer Chip
Intel's Christian Morales presented plans for production of their new 32-nanometer chip at the CeBIT 2009 in Hannover. The faster, smaller and more energy-efficient chip should secure U.S. jobs for some time to come.
Morales, responsible as VP for sales and marketing in the EMEA area, detailed Intel's plans to produce the next generation chip. Thanks to 32-nanometer technology (a human hair is 70,000 nanometers thick in comparison), the chips should be smaller, faster and more energy-efficient.
Intel is contributing about $7 million over the next two years into the chip's production, focused on sites in Oregon, Arizona and New Mexico, thereby creating possibly 7,000 new jobs.
The 32-nanometer chips, code-named Westmere, are to be used in desktop systems and mobile devices. They are based on Intel's Nehalem-C architecture and will have integrated graphics capabilities. Production is planned for the fourth quarter of 2009. The chip is definitely in the running for the smallest ever, although Morales also indicated at the CeBIT press conference that a 22-nanometer chip is also in the making.

Joseph Standing
Oct. 5, 1854
Salt Lake City
Salt Lake County
Utah, USA
Jul. 21, 1879
Whitfield County
Georgia, USA
Only a handful of deaths among The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saint members have produced the magnitude of sentiment than the murder of Elder Joseph Standing.
Elders Joseph Standing and Rudger Clawson were surrounded by a mob at Varnal Station, Georgia, and were taken to the woods apparently for the purpose of receiving a thrashing, as a majority of missionaries recieved. Elder Standing made some show of resistance when one of the mobbers fired at him. Elder Clawson escaped certain death and managed to escort the body of his mutilated companion.
In August of 1880 an Italian-marble monument was erected over Standing's grave, reaching 15 feet in hight. Carved on the sides were the names of the twelve men who participated in the murder. A galvanized iron box was placed inside the monument containing copies of various news accounts of the murder and trial, along with photographs of Standing and Clawson, and information regarding the monument. The five foot obelisk on top broke off, the writing since wore away, and for a time the entire monument was gone, and has since been replaced by the Young Men Mutual Improvement Association (who first donated it), exact in detail of the original, including an iron fence surrounding the structure to prevent futher desecration. Over 10,000 people attended Elder Standing's funeral.

Update on NapoleonNapoleón is a 47-year-old single man with an 8-year-old son. He is originally from Malpaisillo, which is in the western part of the country. He is a hardworking, responsible man who is motivated to better himself. Regrettably, due to lack of financial resources, he was not able to pursue a college degree.
Thanks to his entrepreneurial spirit, he started a business providing musical services. He has been doing this for 14 years, and he works on a contract basis. He is seeking a loan so that he can invest sound equipment such as amplifiers, speakers, and microphones, as well as a computer and lights. This should enable him to increase his income in the near future.
Napoleón is thankful to the Kiva lenders for the help that they provide to individuals who have scarce resources in poor countries such as Nicaragua. This support enables these individuals to work with dignity.
Gracias a su espíritu de emprendedor es que tiene por actividad económica prestar servicios musicales, desde hace 14 años, y lo desempeña de forma ambulante y por contrato.

Additional Information
Fundación Leon 2000This loan is administered by Fundación Leon 2000. Fundación Leon 2000 began operations in 1993 as the first microfinance institution to serve the western part of Nicaragua, a country which continues to be one of the poorest in the western hemisphere. Fundación Leon 2000 works to further the development of micro, small, and medium enterprises through credit services and management, applying the best credit industry practices and technical expertise. Additionally, Fundación Leon manages several business and financial education programs in the community, specifically for young entrepreneurs and at-risk youth.

Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Sports: The All-American Addiction
Sports: The All-American Addiction
Now, in Sports: The All-American Addiction, he brings his insights and observations together in a radical, critical evaluation of the impact of sports on American life.
This book argues that our society's huge investment in organized sports is unjustified. Ardent boosters say that sports embody the "American Way, " developing winners by teaching lessons in sportsmanship, teamwork, and discipline. In fact, Gerdy writes, modern sports are eroding American life and undermining traditional American values essential to the well-being of the nation and its people. Like a drug, this obsession allows Americans to escape problems and ignore issues.
Gerdy asks tough questions. Have sports lost their relevance? Is it just mindless entertainment? Is our enormous investment in sports as educational tools appropriate for a nation that needs graduates to compete in the information-based, global economy of the twenty-first century? Do organized sports continue to promote positive ideals? Or, do sports, in the age of television, corporate sky boxes, and sneaker deals, represent something far different?
Boldly making his case, Gerdy detects five causes for alarm. A violent, win-at-all-cost mentality exists. A greater number of spectators are idly watching the few elite athletes. An athletic culture that is anti-intellectualsystematically creates "dumb jocks." While bridges, inner-cities, and schools are crumbling, tremendous sums of tax dollars vanish to wealthy owners, millionaire players, and to college athletic programs. Studies show that spor

It Is NOT the Collapse of the FamilyDanielle
Married or committed.
Engaged or single.
Families come in all types of shapes and sizes.
When a recent study came out showing more children today are being born to "single" parents than married couples I saw a rash of harsh, biased and downright hateful articles deeming this the collapse of the American family — which I take offense to.
In fact I put "single" in my virtual air quotes because filing your taxes as single does not in fact make you single or mean you are not committed to parent with your partner. In some cases you live under the same roof and just decided not to get married.
This is how my husband and I were when we decided to have my oldest son — and we didn't get married till after he was born. We actually had no plan to marry at all but we knew we were committed enough to each other to start a family.
The data compiled by a group based in Washington DC called Child Trends shows:
- 4 out of 10 children are born to women who are not married.
- More than half of the births in the US are to women under 30 years of age.
- The fastest growing group of women giving birth is white women in their 20's with some college education.
It shows a shift which is bring driven by the economy clearly. But the fact that people are using this to take shots at the families that make these choices calling it the downfall of the American family, or the downfall of family in general piss me off.
Because it is unfounded and offensive.
It is stereotyping and hurtful.
Families are changing across the board! Some families have two dads and some have two moms! Some families have three dads and one mom or two moms and two dads. Families today come in all shapes and sizes. I am fortunate that my family is pretty close to what some would call traditional but who cares?
Why don't we support the parents and these beautiful babies that are coming into the world instead of trying to throw them under the bus from birth because of who their parents are — and whether or not they are married?
Maybe if we started with this simple step of humanity in our country we could start to make life better across the board for all of the children we are bringing into the world right?
Stop casting stones and dividing families!

Students interested in business and entrepreneurship at Penn State will be given several opportunities to engage with other entrepreneurial students and to learn more about business during Global Entrepreneurship Week.
Global Entrepreneurship Week involves more than 100 countries, and is celebrated every November in order to bring together innovators of business and encourage economic growth and diversity, according to the Global Entrepreneurship Week website.
At Penn State, a string of 47 events will be held at various locations around campus throughout the week, and all involve a variety of different ways to engage students and members of the community in entrepreneurship, Rachel Wozniak , account executive from Happy Valley Communications , said.
Wozniak said she is spending her second year with the organization mainly involved with the promotional side of Global Entrepreneurship Week at Penn State, and works to inform the student population about events going on around campus during the week.
Wozniak (senior-public relations and Spanish) said last year, Penn State's version of Global Entrepreneurship Week was fourth in the country based off of types of events and attendance, but this year, she is hoping to help Penn State rank first.
She said they have been promoting the event a lot this year because she thinks more students would be interested if they were more informed about it.
With 47 events on campus, Wozniak said the week will provide something different for every student who attends, and all types of students can find something fitting to their field of interest.
"There are a big variety of events this year, from lectures to different interactive events," Wozniak said. "Events are specified to whatever you'd want to do, but it's a good way to meet and greet with people and make certain contacts."
Ultimately, Wozniak said she anticipates seeing student interest in the events, and thinks having a strong entrepreneurial involvement at the university is important.
"The school fosters new ideas all the time, and it's very inspiring," Wozniak said. "Students are more willing to go off and start their own businesses, and I hope that other students attend and follow in their footsteps."
Several students and alumni have become actively involved with Global Entrepreneurship Week, and entrepreneurship in general, such as Justin Goldman , the co-creator of OrderUp , who will be speaking about his business experience three different times throughout the day on Tuesday.
Other university clubs, such as the Clown Nose Club , hope to make their entrepreneurial endeavors known, Carly Harris, one of the club leaders, said via email.
Harris (sophomore-marketing) said she hopes to step up during the week and have her opinions heard by other students who have entrepreneurial ideas.
"We have been fundraising for THON , so we have been trying to come up with innovative ideas for our alternate fundraisers besides canning, like our 'Rake to break cancer' fundraiser, raking local yards," Harris said.
Harris also said the weeklong showcase should capture the interest of students due to the variety of events that may help improve business and entrepreneurial skills, such as workshops.
Other student entrepreneurs have been essentially self-sufficient in their businesses, and will present themselves to the student body as part of the themes of the week, such as Penn State iCracked representative, Mac Frederick.
Frederick (senior-advertising) said he often meets with students on campus to fix broken or damaged smartphones as a part of the iCracked company, and has been an independent student entrepreneur for the last year and a half.
He said he thinks it's important for students at Penn State to get involved in Global Entrepreneurship Week, because he considers getting involved in the entrepreneurship world nothing but beneficial for students.
"It opens your mind to a variety of different options as far as choosing the life you want for yourself and being able to solve problems," Frederick said.
Students can find more information on Global Entrepreneurship Week at Penn State events, as well as the full schedule of nearly 50 on-campus events on their website at www.geweekatpennstate.com.

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone there at WAG for the fine job
you did on our sweet kitty Bella. After she was spayed last week there
have been absolutely no problems with her recovery. No bleeding
whatsoever. She has recovered quite well and has returned to her curious
self. Thank you for taking care of her so well. It means a lot. I will
recommend your services to anyone who needs their pet spayed or neutered.
Best regards,
Gary Marullo

I've been volunteering for WAG off and on since, well, before there was a WAG. I've volunteered for a lot of spay/neuter clinics, having been Local Host for the Oregon Neutermobile. The clients see WAG's reasonable fees and, I hope, understand how important it is to have their pet spayed or neutered because of the health benefits to the pet and the reduced population of unwanted pets. What they can't appreciate as much as I do is what loving care every animal gets at WAG. Animals that are young or any kind of elevated risk get one-on-one care both before and after surgery. I often get drafted to hold a kitten for a while when we're busy.
The clients also don't get to see how much needs to be done to get a clinic like this up and running and keep it running. It's done mostly by volunteers with a mission, plus staff, lots of whom started out as such volunteers. I can't recommend it too highly, to clients, volunteers and donors. If you want to help animals, I don't know where you could get more "bang for the buck."

WAG is providing a great service to our community and pets. I had a feral cat I finally caught and they were able to take her on standby which is so helpful because it's hard to make an appointment when you don't know when you'll catch the cat. Price is very affordable and she was spayed and given her vaccinations. Thank you WAG for helping me with Babygirl! Her first litter was her last :)

WAG has been a godsend for people like me in animal rescue and for community members that cannot afford the high prices of most veterinarians. I also volunteer with them and it is one of the days of the week I really look forward to. They are a great group of individuals who are not only providing low cost and HIGH quality spays and neuters, but they truly are all animal advocates. That is not something I can say about all vet care professionals. Thank you WAG for all of your hard work to make this happen and to be an inspiration to us all. When we finally do make a dent in the overpopulation problem in our community, you'll be the first I will salute!
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
many differnt areas. They work with other groups in an effort to eliminate the overpopulation problem. That is their number one goal. That and no more animal suffering.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
apply for more grants.
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
The high quality work they provide and their level of professionalism and compassion.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
very friendly and accommodating in training the job expectations. Most of them not only work there (some as unpaid volunteer staff)all do animal rescue in some form on the side. They truly care about animal welfare.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
Eliminate the problem in our community!
Ways to make it better...
I had more time to give!
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
other 'for-profit' clinics lowering prices to be competitive with theirs.
One thing I'd also say is that...
I cannot imagine not having them as a resource with the work I do.

Thank goodness for WAG. In a community that is so overrun with thousands of animals with no place to go, we were sorely lacking in affordable spay and neuter resources. Before WAG opened in the community, the sole low-cost s/n clinic in our area was operated by the City of Eugene. Having taken one of my own dogs there for a spay, I know first hand that the volume of calls they were getting was such that it is not unusual to have a three month wait to spay a female dog. In three months, a dog could get pregnant and bring a litter of puppies to term. While they did a great job with my dog, it was impossible for one small clinic to keep up with the demand in an area that has been economically depressed for decades. The folks at WAG care about animals first and foremost. They do high-volume, low-cost spay/neuters in a professional environment, and their staff bring years of experience in the veterinary medical field AND with rescue. They are uniquely qualified to address the needs of feral cats, in particular, and are a wealth of information for community members concerned about what to do with the feral populations in their own areas. I work with a local rescue, Save the Pets, and we would not be as successful as we have been without WAG. We take many, many animals to WAG for their s/n surgery at a lower cost than at a private vet clinic. That savings translates into our group being able to help a higher volume of animals or to be able to spend the money we save on animals who need other costly medical treatment, which we would not be able to afford if the bulk of our medical budget were going toward simple spay and neuter. Personally, I was so impressed with WAG and with their staff that I decided to become a volunteer there myself.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
more people being able to afford to spay and neuter their pets. Our rescue gets numerous inquiries from the community at large who cannot afford local vet prices but want to be responsible. We love referring them to WAG.
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
that I truly feel that I am doing something to make a difference in stemming the animal overpopulation problem in Lane County at its source.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
experienced, kind, caring, compassionate, knowledgable, and devoted to their mission.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
employ more medical staff, expand their facilities, and serve an even greater population than they already do.

Nice little notebook
This review is from: Gateway Laptop NE56R37u Intel Pentium B960 (2.2 GHz) 6 GB Memory 750 GB HDD Intel HD Graphics 15.6" Windows 8
Pros: Nice keyboard layout with good size keys for male fingers, great screen resolution, 6GB RAM, CD/DVD drive is not flimsy as similar Samsung model returned before this purchase
Cons: only 3 USB ports, Windows 8 sucks if you don't have a smartphone be ready for your computer to look like one, and be ready to fight with Microsoft to install anything that they don't sell.
Other Thoughts: Can't go wrong for the $399.00 I paid for it. Just wish I didn't have to deal with Windows 8 and Microsoft's sleazy corporate tactics.

It was my experience with the driver that I had. In the crazy and stressful time of the move the driver was dependable. The driver had good interpersonal skills. The driver was very professional.
Everything went exactly as stated. I was packed up and moved the Saturday after I spoke to the rep on the previous Monday.
It couldn't have gone any better. We get calls everyday on how everything went. The guys who came to our house were excellent. Our del day was 10 days after our pack day.
It was my experience with the driver that I had. In the crazy and stressful time of the move the driver was dependable. The driver had good interpersonal skills. The driver was very professional.
Very responsive and very diligent. I haven't heard anything about the 3rd party to unpack and its been 3 days. There is definitely room for improvement w/ the 3rd party contact.
They were very nice. Whenever I asked for them to move or pack something they were very helpful. They were good about last minute changes. They were very careful when they packed the TV & glass table. I had some things that weren't packed but they packed them for me.
The whole process was very precise, what they told me what was going to happen, happened. It was smooth, prompt, professional, & went better than I thought it would.
The overall packing, loading and the end results of the move I was most satis with. I would highly recommend Allied.

Law Enforcement:
Information on Timeliness of Criminal Fingerprint Submissions to the FBI
GAO-04-260: Published: Jan 27, 2004. Publicly Released: Feb 26, 2004.

By positively confirming identifications and linking relevant records of arrests and prosecutions, fingerprint analysis provides a basis for making fundamental criminal justice decisions regarding detention, charging, bail, and sentencing. In 1999, the FBI implemented the Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System (IAFIS)--a computerized system for storing, comparing, and exchanging fingerprint data in a digital format. The FBI's goal under IAFIS is to ultimately achieve paperless processing and to provide a response within 2 hours to users who submit criminal fingerprints electronically. Maximizing the benefits of rapid responses under IAFIS depends largely on how quickly criminal fingerprints are submitted by local and state law enforcement agencies. Concerns have been raised that, after arrests are made by some local or state law enforcement agencies, periods of up to 6 months may elapse before the criminal fingerprints are submitted for entry into IAFIS. GAO examined (1) the importance of IAFIS processing to local and state law enforcement agencies, (2) the progress these agencies have made toward the goal of paperless fingerprint processing, and (3) efforts being made to improve the timeliness of criminal fingerprint submissions.
IAFIS processing of criminal fingerprints is important to local and state law enforcement not only for updating national databases but also for obtaining an individual's criminal history and, at times, for obtaining positive identification of arrestees. For a recent 8-month period (October 2002 through May 2003) that GAO reviewed, law enforcement agencies wanted a response from the FBI for 78 percent of the approximately 5.3 million sets of criminal fingerprints submitted to IAFIS. The extent to which these responses were used to either positively identify arrestees or obtain criminal history records is unknown. However, the FBI provided GAO with examples of how IAFIS responses prevented the premature release of individuals who had used false names at arrest and were wanted in other jurisdictions. Law enforcement agencies have made progress toward the FBI's goal of paperless processing of criminal fingerprints, although there is room for substantial improvement. The percentage of criminal fingerprints submitted electronically by state repositories to the FBI increased from 45 percent in 1999 to 70 percent in 2003. Also, for the recent 8-month period GAO reviewed, the overall average submission time for criminal fingerprints was 40 days (an average that encompasses both paper and electronic submissions)--whereas, before IAFIS, average submission times were much higher (e.g., 118 days in 1997). Although much progress has been made, many jurisdictions lack automation and have backlogs of paper fingerprint cards to be processed, in part because of competing priorities and resource constraints. Numerous efforts have been made to help improve the timeliness of criminal fingerprint submissions to IAFIS. To facilitate electronic processing, federal technical and financial assistance has encouraged law enforcement agencies to purchase optical scanning (Livescan) equipment for taking fingerprints and to establish automated systems compatible with FBI standards. GAO noted that the need for quick, fingerprint-based identifications--positively linking individuals to relevant criminal history records--is becoming increasingly important. Reasons for such importance are the mobility of criminals (many of whom have multistate records), the growing incidence of identity theft or identity fraud, the significance of homeland security concerns, and increasing demands stemming from background checksrequired for employment or other noncriminal justice purposes.
