Citation: Jones, D.R., Anderson, K., Guard, J.Y. 2012. Pathogen Prevalence From Traditional Cage and Free Range Production. National Egg Regulatory Officials Annual Meeting. p.68-70. Technical Abstract: Overview: A study was conducted to determine if differences in pathogen prevalence occurred between a sister flock of conventional cage and free range laying hens. Both environmental and egg microbiology was monitored throughout 20 – 79 weeks of age. Salmonella, Campylobacter, and Listeria prevalence was monitored. Trends in prevalence for each pathogen varied dependent on season of the year and housing system. More research is needed before clear outcomes can be determined. Materials and Methods: A single strain of brown egg layers was utilized for this study. All birds were hatched and reared together. At 12 wks of age, free-range pullets were moved from floor pens to the range huts and paddocks. Conventional cage pullets were maintained in quad-deck rearing cages until approximately 16 wks of age when they were moved to the laying house. Both flocks received the same diet and lighting program (supplemental lighting provided in the range hut). The conventional cage and free range production facilities were located on the same research farm. Approximately every 6 wks, from 20 – 79 weeks of age, eggs and environmental samples were collected from both production systems. Free range floor eggs were cultured separately than nest box eggs. Environmental swabs were taken by moistening sterile gauze with sterile phosphate buffered saline and aseptically wiping the cage or nest box sections which held the eggs. Free range grass samples were aseptically collected by grasping a handful of grass from the paddock area and using sterile shears, cutting the grass approximately 2.5 cm from the ground. All samples were placed in sterile laboratory bags and transported to the laboratory on ice. Eggs and environmental samples were stored overnight at 4C before culturing was initiated. Environmental samples were collected in triplicate. Thirty eggs from each treatment (conventional cage, free range nest box, free range floor) were collected. Diluent was added to environmental swabs and grass samples. All samples were stomacher blended for one minute. For each treatment, six pools of three eggs were formed (24 eggs intact eggs per treatment). Each egg was aseptically cracked and contents collected. Shells were then rinsed with sterile phosphate buffered saline and macerated with sterile phosphate buffered saline. All shell and egg contents pools were assessed for Salmonella, Campylobacter, and Listeria according to our common laboratory practices. Results: Campylobacter was detected in each season, except spring. The greatest incidence of Campylobacter was found in free range nest box swabs. There was an issue when hens sitting and defecating in the nest boxes, therefore, it is not surprising to have a higher prevalence of Campylobacter. No egg contents pools were found to contain Campylobacter. In total, Campylobacter was isolated from 12 egg shell and environmental samples. There was a significantly greater prevalence of Campylobacter in the free range nest box environment compared to conventional cage and free range grass. Listeria was cultured from 7 egg shell and environmental samples. No egg contents were found to contain Listeria. At least one positive Listeria sample was detected each season. The greatest number (three) of positive samples was found in fall. Six of the isolates were associated with free range egg production. Four of the free range isolates were from the environment (nest box swabs – 2; grass – 2) and two were from free range floor egg shell emulsions. All isolates detected were L. innocua. There was no significant difference in Listeria prevalence amongst treatments. Salmonella was detected in all production environments and in every season. Additionally, Salmonella was detected multiple times in egg contents pools from all sampling environments (conventional cage – 2; free range nest box – 3; free range floor – 2). The greatest number of Salmonella positive shell emulsion pools came from the conventional cage (n = 4), then free range floor (n = 3). No Salmonella was detected in free range nest box shell emulsion pools. The conventional cage swabs had the greatest prevalence of Salmonella (n = 5). Previous research has noted that Salmonella is more easily cultured from dust than other environmental samples. The conventional cage production environment was dustier than the free range environment. Of the 21 Salmonella isolates detected during the study, 18 were S. Typhimurium, one S. Javiana (free range floor shell emulsion), one S. Enteritidis (free range grass), and one PCR failure (not stereotyped). There was no significant difference amongst treatments for the prevalence of Salmonella. In conclusion, the presence of fecal material in the nest box appears to contribute to the incidence of Campylobacter. Management practices and equipment should be designed to reduce the likelihood of hen defecation in nest boxes. Within the parameters of the current study, season of the year appears to affect pathogen detection. Additional research is needed for greater understanding of the impacts of various production systems on pathogen prevalence in the production environment, as well as associated with the eggs. The authors would like to acknowledge the contributions of Patsy Mason, Victoria Broussard, Otis Freeman, Tod Steward, and the staff of the NC Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Piedmont Research Station. Without their assistance, this research would not have been possible. The peer-review publication of this research will be available in Poultry Science, March 2012.

Distilling the Meaning
We're focusing a great deal on craft beer this issue (major congrats to Oskar Blues for earning our inaugural Craft Brewer of the Year Award), so it'd probably be appropriate for me to write about craft beer. But, I've written a lot of about the subject lately (including in this issue) and I think I want to talk about spirits.
There were a great many statistical nuggets I took away from the Distilled Spirits Council's (DISCUS) annual media and analysts briefing last month. For one, total spirits volume grew by 3.0 percent in 2012—an impressive number for any mature beverage category, especially when compared with the likes of U.S. beer and carbonated soft drinks. Volume reached 202 million case equivalents. Total revenue was up an even greater 4.5 percent, rising to $21.3 billion
A good deal of overall spirits growth is thanks to the premiumization trend, as a sizeable portion of the category's growth came from the top two spirits price segments, high-end and super-premium, which grew by 4.8 percent and 8.9 percent, respectively. The two segments on the lower half of the price spectrum, value (the lowest) and premium, grew by a much more modest 1.8 percent and 2.1 percent, respectively. Additionally, the super-premium segment is having a much greater impact than it had 10 years ago. In 2003 the value segment's total revenue was just under $3.8 billion, while super-premium's tally was a tad lower than $1.5 billion. Ten years later, value's annual revenue was only a slightly higher $4.1 billion, but super-premium is getting pretty close to matching it at $3.9 billion.
There were plenty more facts and figures DISCUS president and CEO Peter Cressy and chief economist David Ozgo presented at the meeting, but I wasn't struck so much by what was said, but by what wasn't said—or at least wasn't said until the final minutes of the presentation. In the same event held in in each of the past few years, the speakers wouldn't get five minutes into their presentations without uttering the word "recession" or even "economy" (not including Ozgo's economist title). But this year I was already packing up my laptop (reporters notebooks are for suckers) before a passing reference to the state of the economy was made late in the session.
And I don't think that was an accident. When your numbers are as good as spirits' have been—not to mention steady, as 2011 was similarly positive for the category—it's perfectly safe to get a sense that things have returned to some form of normal. And when the top-shelf price segments are doing as well as they are, it points to a sustainable trading-up trend that, after a brief recessionary hiccup, is back in full-swing. The gravitation back toward affordable luxury over the past three years is a sign that times could actually be heading back into the "good."
This in no way is meant to cavalierly dismiss the 7.9 percent unemployment elephant in the room. There's still a considerable way to go until we collectively reach full recovery. But with some consistently solid numbers coming out of the spirits market, it's okay to surrender to one's inner optimist.

Tesla Reports First Profitable Quarter; Hires Aston Martin's Chief Vehicle Engineer

Tesla shares surged almost 30 percent in after-market trading in New York to as much as $72.99
Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk was right: the company
certainly is profitable
now, and even managed to beat analysts' expectations.
For Q1 2013, Tesla reported a net income of $11.2 million, which was quite a jump from an $89.9 million loss in the year-ago quarter. Excluding certain items, Tesla's profit came in at 12 cents a share, which was a boost from a loss of 76 cents a share in Q1 2012.
Analysts expected a profit of about 4 cents a share.
"We exceeded our own targets for deliveries, significantly expanded gross margin, and improved execution throughout the company," said Tesla. "Excluding non-cash warrant and stock option items, we generated a profit of $15 million. Including those factors, our GAAP profit was $11 million. Importantly, we achieved profitability despite the benefit of a one-time accounting gain related to the DOE warrant.
"2013 is off to a strong start, and we look forward to seeing more of you on the road in a Model S this year."
Revenue also saw a huge year-over-year boost, totaling $562 million (up from $30.2 million in the year-ago quarter).
Tesla had an operations loss of $5.58 million, down from $88.8 million in the year-ago quarter.
Tesla sold 4,900 Model S sedans in the first quarter, beating its previous projections of 4,500. Model S deliveries for the entire year should total 21,000, which slightly exceeds previous forecasts of about 20,000.
The company said its sales of zero-emission vehicle credits to automakers totaled $68 million, or 12 percent of revenue for Q1 2013.
Just this week, it was reported that Tesla could
receive $250 million in environmental credits
from California alone this year.
For Q2 2013, Tesla expects to build 5,000 Model S' and ship about 4,500 in North America (the rest are headed to Europe).
"Operating expenses are expected to increase moderately in Q2," said Tesla. "R&D expenses are expected to increase slightly from Q1 as the pace of product development starts to pick up. SG&A expenses will continue to rise moderately, primarily due to the growth in our stores and service centers.
"We plan to spend about $200 million on capital expenditures in 2013, as we conclude the majority of our investment in the Tesla Factory and Model S tooling."
Tesla shares surged almost 30 percent in after-market trading in New York to as much as $72.99.
In other Tesla-related news, the company hired Aston Martin's Chief Engineer of Vehicle Engineering
Chris Porritt this week. He will now be Tesla's
Vice President of Vehicle Engineering.
"Tesla is a hardcore technology company, which means that anyone leading a team of engineers must be an outstanding engineer themself, as well as a good leader," said Musk. "Chris demonstrated exactly that in his prior role at Aston Martin, creating in the One-77 what was arguably their best car ever."
Tesla has certainly come a long way from this time last year. After problems with Model S shipment delays, a run-in with a poor review from
The New York Times,
and a production delay announcement for
the Model X
, Tesla has now proved that nothing can hold it back.
Tesla began shipping 500 Model S' a week in March, exceeding the sales outlook of 4,500 posted in the February shareholder letter.
It later announced that the company would be able to
pay off its $465 million government loan
within five years, and that this current quarter would be its
first profitable one
. Clearly, the company was right.
Tesla is looking to keep that momentum by any means necessary. The electric auto maker has worked hard to please customers with a new battery replacement program as well as new service programs, which feature valet for customers who need to send their Model S' to the shop -- and can even borrow (or later buy) a better Model S or Tesla Roadster as loaner vehicles.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has been fighting for a
Texas electric vehicle sales bill
(House Bill 3351) as well, which would allow distributors and manufacturers of electric vehicles only to sell directly to customers without the use of dealerships. Musk called this bill a matter of "life or death" for Tesla.

RE: Nonsense
I wouldn't go that far. I've always owned multiple vehicles and I would gladly try out an EV if the range was enough for my normal commute. It would make a lot of sense for people who have normal commutes within the range (which 200 miles would be plenty for pretty much everyone, who really drives more than 200 miles in a day...normally...I drove over a 1000 today but I'm moving). It would allow you to never have to worry about stopping to get gas and since they will have charging pads you wouldn't have to remember to plug it in.
The problem is that people only look at their own situation. I love driving so an EV wouldn't work as my only vehicle, but I could see me having one as an extra vehicle. I also just came from the DC area and I know a lot of people who would love to be able to drive to work without having to deal with getting gas. For instance, read this article
and you can see how EVs could be very beneficial.
"It's okay. The scenarios aren't that clear. But it's good looking. [Steve Jobs] does good design, and [the iPad] is absolutely a good example of that." -- Bill Gates on the Apple iPad

Coors Events Center (11,064) • Boulder, Colo.
The Texas A&M - Corpus Christi women's basketball team will travel to Boulder, Colo. for the first time in program history to compete in the two-day Omni Hotels Classic. First up for the Islanders is a Friday night contest against host Colorado from the Pac-12. The Buffs and Islanders will meet just for the second time in school history. On Saturday, the Islanders will face the winner/loser of the San Diego State and Auburn matchup.
The Islanders are looking for their first victory of the season after dropping their first four contests, including two on the road. The Islanders are coming off an 11-point loss to Big Ten Indiana at home on Monday.
Head Coach Royce Chadwick is in his first year as the Islanders' Head Coach. Chadwick, who spent the previous 11 years at the helm of the Marshall University program, has 561 wins on his collegiate coaching resume.
The Islanders are comprised of 10 returning letterwinners and five newcomers which includes three freshmen and two transfers. The Islanders finished the 2011-12 with a 9-20 record and 5-11 in the conference.
The Buffs are 2-0 after a 70-65 victory at home against Idaho to open the season and a 78-55 victory at Kansas City on Sunday.
•Junior Alisa Roberts came off the bench on Monday vs. Indiana to score a season-high 14 points on 5-of-8 shooting.
•Freshman Janae Blount tallied nine points vs. Indiana, one short of registering her fourth consecutive double-figure scoring game. She leads the team with 11.5 points per game.
•Texas A&M - Corpus Christi has made it to the charity stripe 84 times this season and are shooting .679 percent from the line compared to their opponents' .638 percent
•Coach Chadwick has used the same starting five of Ashanti Plummer, Ashley Darley, Janae Blount, Jessica Jammer and Taryn Gregory in three out of the four games this season. Darley is the only one to make starts in all four games this season.
• The two-day classic will mark the third time in program history the Islanders have competed over the Thanksgiving weekend.
•Verne'qua Taylor dished out 141 assists in 2011-12 which set the Islanders' all-time assist record as a junior. She led the Southland Conference in assist average with 4.9 per game.
• In 20 years at the Division I level, Chadwick holds a 365-237 (.606) record and seven NCAA Tournament appearances.
The Islanders and Buffs meet for just the second time in program history. Colorado holds the 1-0 advantage after a 71-58 victory last season in the Coastal Bend.
Jessica Jammer tallied a game-high 22 points, including 10-of-13 at the charity stripe and grabbed six rebounds. Verne'qua Taylor chipped in nine points.
This season, the Buffs are 2-0. Colorado topped Idaho, 70-65, to open the season and then picked up a 78-55 at Kansas City on Monday.
Colorado is averaging 74.0 points per game behind Arielle Roberson's 19.5 points per game. Brittany Wilson is second on the team with 12.5 points per game. Meagan Malcolm-Peck leads the glass with 8.0 rebounds per game.
If the Islanders were to face the Aztecs, it would mark the third meeting between the two schools. San Diego State holds the 2-0 advantage. In 2000, the Aztecs sealed a 57-52 victory at home and followed it with a 67-59 victory in 2001 in Corpus Christi.
San Diego State holds a 2-1 record with victories against UC Irvine and CSUDH at home. The Aztecs dropped a season-opener road loss to UCLA.
If the Islanders were to face Auburn, it would mark the first time in program history. The Tigers hold a 3-1 record with victories against Maine, Alabama State and Alabama A&M. Auburn's only loss came at NC State.
The Islanders were picked to finish eighth in the Southland Conference Coaches' Poll after finishing with a 5-11 conference record last season.
Freshman guard Janae Blount is leading the Islanders with 11.5 points per game in 25.5 minutes per game. She has scored in double figures in three out of the four games this season and has made starts in three out of the four. The Washington, D.C. native is also 12-for-15 from the line. She scored a team-high 14 points and went 3-for-5 from behind the arc in the Islanders' season opener vs. Belmont.
Joining Blount is freshman post Ashanti Plummer who has added some inside presence after averaging 18.1 points per game during her senior season of high school. She also pulled down 13.6 rebounds. Freshman Zenobia Winbush and junior transfer Morgan Schwartz have added height to the Islanders roster. Schwartz transferred from Midland CC where she played two seasons under head coach Ron Jones. Rounding out the newcomers is Janae Lyde who is a sophomore transfer from Texas Southern and will sit out this season due to NCAA transfer rules.
In the exhibition, Plummer led the newcomers with nine points and five rebounds. Schwartz also chipped in with five rebounds.
Ashley Darley is back after sitting out last season with a medical redshirt. The redshirt junior has made starts in all four of the Islanders' games. She is second on the team with 7.5 points per game in 19.8 minutes per game. She has also chipped in a team-high eight steals. The Corpus Christi native scored eight points in the season opener vs. Belmont and recorded a team-high 17 points, one shy of her career best at UTPA. She also chipped in a game-high five steals.
Joining Darley is junior Alisa Roberts, who is third on the team out of the returners with 7.0 points.
Leading the boards are Jessica Jammer with 6.3 rebounds per game and Brandi Huff is second with 4.8 per game.
The Islanders also return last season's conference assist leader Verne'qua Taylor and guards Marquesha Anderson-Sparks, Imani Dunn, Taryn Gregory, Trish Amboree and Sarah Alva, along with forward Damequia Montgomery.
Royce Chadwick is the fourth coach in Islanders' history to make his debut on the sidelines. He holds 561 wins on his collegiate coaching resume and seven NCAA Tournament bids. Chadwick is familiar with the Southland Conference after coaching stints at Stephen F. Austin and Sam Houston State. He holds a .829 career winning percentage in Southland Conference games. Chadwick was named the Southland Coach of the Year in 1997. He has 28 years of experience coaching women's college basketball and four career wins in the NCAA Tournament.
Roxanne White joins Chadwick on the sidelines as the Islanders' Associate Head Coach. White served on Chadwick's staffs at Marshall and Stephen F. Austin. White was Marshall's recruiting coordinator for all 11 years she was at the school and was the associate head coach for 10 of those seasons. The Stephen F. Austin alumna was an assistant for Chadwick for five years at SFA and also spent a year with Texas A&M.
Darren Brunson also makes his Islanders' coaching debut this season as the Islanders Assistant Coach. Brunson comes to the Island University after spending the past three years as the associate head coach and team's recruiting coordinator at Texas Southern.
Geoff Grawn joins the three of them on the sidelines and enters his 11th season on the Islanders' staff as an assistant coach.
The Islanders will host Texas - Pan American on Wednesday, Nov. 28, at the American Bank Center. It will mark the second meeting between the two schools this season. The Broncs notched the first meeting, 77-65 in Edinburg on Nov .13 in the Islanders' second game of the season. Texas A&M - Corpus Christi led by eight points at the half before UTPA outscored the Islanders 54-34 in the second half.

Officials: Fla. man wanted to cook rare sea turtle
Published: Friday, September 21, 2012 at 7:27 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, September 21, 2012 at 7:27 a.m.
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — A rare sea turtle that a Florida fisherman wanted to cook and eat has been released back into the wild.
Officials at The Florida Aquarium say the fisherman snagged the Kemp's ridley sea turtle in May. Instead of releasing it, he put the 15-pound juvenile turtle in a tank in his backyard in Tampa.
Aquarium official Susan Coy tells The Tampa Tribune (http://bit.ly/RyCkRB) that the fisherman planned to cook and eat the endangered species, but a neighbor reported him to authorities.
It's not unheard of for turtle meat to be used in dishes such as soups.
Gary Morse, a spokesman for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, says the fisherman told investigators he didn't know the turtle was endangered.
The turtle named "Lucky" was rehabilitated at the aquarium until Wednesday, when it was released.

AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Thanksgiving is less than a month away, and you know that means lots of cooking is coming! But before you can begin preparing that feast, you need to prep your appliances.
The last thing any of us want is for our stove or refrigerator to go out during the holidays, so don't let the Grinch steal your spirit!
Self-cleaning cycles can cause your oven to run extremely hot, which sometimes throws the temperature off. Consider cleaning your oven by hand, especially before baking.
In addition to overfilling, the number one issue with refrigerators is a failure to clean the condenser coil. You need to clean this every six months.
"When it comes to appliances, homeowners oftentimes take them for granted. We don't take proper care of them and then we end up disappointed when they don't work right. We overstuff our freezers so proper airflow cant get through or we overload our dishwasher so it doesn't even have a prayer of being to get the dishes clean," said Angie Hicks of Angie's List.
If an appliance does break down, get at least three estimates and compare the bids based on price, parts, labor and warranty.
If appliance repair costs more than half the cost of a new appliance and the unit is more than seven years old, you're probably better off replacing it.

Reviewed on 6/12

Dogs and cats. They may be your best friends, but if you have allergies they could be your worst enemy, especially in the winter. As the weather gets colder and dogs and cats spend more time inside, the level of animal dander rises in the home.
There are two major concerns:
Because new houses are built to a high level of energy efficiency and older homes are being updated, the amount of outside air exchanged with inside air is dropping dramatically in homes throughout the United States.
Although this is energy efficient, the downside is that you're breathing the same air over and over, and allergens build up in the house.
A forced-air furnace also can increase problems because it circulates dander-laden air throughout the home. Changing the furnace air filter regularly and closing the vent and door can help relieve allergy symptoms. Making a secondary filter from a piece of muslin or cheesecloth and taping it to the inside of the vent in a room also may remove some allergens.
Heated air also creates a considerable drop in humidity in the home so many people use humidifiers, which can be a breeding ground for mold growth. People using humidifiers during the winter should clean them weekly with a solution of bleach and water to kill mold. Never allow humidity in the home to rise above 40 percent. At higher concentrations, dust mites, which cause allergies, begin to thrive and the possibility of mold contamination increases dramatically.
Evidence shows that allergy and asthma symptoms may improve over time if the recommended environmental control changes are made. Environmental control means to make changes in your environment (home, workplace, etc) to reduce exposure to certain allergens.
Many environmental controls are for the entire home, but the bedroom is the most important because it is where people usually spend a third to half of their time. Learn ways to reduce exposure to animal allergens even if you own a pet.

Great outdoors funThis is a great product for parents that want their kids to be more active. It's the perfect "smaller sized" net for volleyball, tennis, and badminton. Our two sons (5 and 7) spend hours in the backyard playing with these! Very good purchase.
Outdoor fun with the family!We have a very athletic family! I ran track, my husband played football, my son plays high school basketball, and my daughter, although she's only 5, plays soccer! We got this set so we could be athletic together in our backyard! We have a blast playing tennis, volleyball, and badminton! We have a full size set as well, but this one works great when playing with our young daughter and her friends :)
Hours of outside playtimeEvery parent wants their kids to spend more time outside. Products like this one make them never want to come back in! Our son and daughter (7 and 5 years old) love playing tennis and volleyball together. We've even considered buying two more rackets so we could have team matches! Also we were relieved that the volleyball came with a pump; it may seem like a small thing, but it comes in handy in our time of need!

ELYRIA — The Elyria Christian School girls' basketball team never trailed in a 40-30 win over Peabody-Burns Tuesday.
Freshman Rachel Adamyk led all scorers with 11, while Abby Fields added 10 in the Eagle victory.
Little River 56
Goessel 27
LITTLE RIVER — The Redskins jumped out to a 19-5 lead after the first quarter and never looked back in a 56-27 domination of Goessel Tuesday.
Little River very nearly had doubled the score by halftime, leading 29-15, and had a 45-21 lead after three quarters.
Skylar Johnston led the way with 19 points, followed by Chloe Baldwin's 12 and Emily Baldwin's 11.
Moundridge 43
Berean Academy 35
MOUNDRIDGE — MacKenzie Suderman had nine of her game-high 15 points in the first half of Tuesday's 43-35 Moundridge win.
The Wildcats led 13-5 after the first quarter, but the Warriors came back in the second to cut the lead to 24-14 at the half. It was 35-27 after three, but Berean didn't have enough in the tank to complete the comeback.
Brooke Holloway added 12 points for Moundridge in the win.
Ell-Saline 42
Inman 40
INMAN — The Teutons and the Cardinals traded the lead several times in Tuesday night's game, with Ell-Saline barely escaping Inman with a 42-40 win.
The game was tied at 40-40 with less than a minute to play when Sesely Omli hit the go-ahead bucket with 14 seconds to go. A shot from Kaitlyn Goalden didn't go in, giving the Cardinals the win.
Abby Ropp led Inman with 12 points in the loss.

November 10, 2005
A week ago, Augusta firefighters learned they would get an immediate four percent pay increase, shortly after deputies got one. Now, some workers in Augusta's Utilities Department say they will fight for one, too. News 12 is on your side to explain what the department is doing to get a raise they say is long overdue.
Utility workers say they are all for deputies and firefighters getting a raise, but only on News 12, hear why they say they work just as hard and if other departments get a raise equaling eight percent, they should, too.
When there's a water main break, they repair it. When there's a broken pipe, they're the ones who fix it.
"If someone hits a fire hydrant, they call the Water Works. We got to get up and go. I don't care if it's ten below zero, twenty below zero, we got to get up and go," said Nathan Deloach.
And that's why the city's Utilities Department say they're the ones who should be next in line for a pay raise.
"It's a service and it's a necessary service just like police protection and fire protection," said Tommy Sammons.
Last week, over 100 firefighters filled Augusta commission chambers fighting for and getting an additional four percent raise.
"I think we're entitled to whatever they get," said Charlie Nemmons.
And the Utilities Department is hoping they'll get the same result after starting a petition to bring before the commission Tuesday. They say they are on call 24-hours a day and put their lives in jeopardy, just like the firefighters.
"If they went to a fire and didn't have no water, I feel like we just as important as the fire department also, so why can't we have a raise, a substantial raise?" Nemmons said.
City Administrator Fred Russell says the city would like to give all employees an eight percent raise, but it's not as easy as it sounds.
"Everybody wants to be paid more than what they're being paid, but the problem is balancing that against the amount of dollars you've got to spread out," Russell said.

In India, Car Sales Struggle Against Slow Economy, Pricey Fuel
NEW DELHI–India's auto industry – weighed down by high interest rates and rising fuel prices – continued to lose speed in December, with car sales recording their sharpest fall in four months and the local association of auto makers cutting its forecast for the fiscal year through March.
The Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers, which collates data for the industry, Wednesday said that December car sales slipped 12.5% to 141,083 autos — the biggest percentage drop since a 19% decline in August.
It added that it now expects car sales for this financial year to be either flat or to grow 1% from the previous 12 months.
SIAM had in October cut the growth forecast for this financial year to 1%-3%, from a previous estimate of 9%-11%.
Car sales in India, which is considered to be one of the world's biggest potential growth markets, have hit more than a few roadblocks in recent times.
Apart from expensive loans and costly fuel, customer sentiment has been impacted also by an economy which is growing at its slowest pace in nearly a decade.
Auto makers are trying to turn things around by introducing new models and offering discounts on existing models. While this has helped somewhat, sales have fallen for four of the past five months.
SIAM President S. Sandilya told a news conference Wednesday that sales of medium and heavy vehicles have been hit by a moderation in agricultural growth, a drop in mining activity, slowing industrial activity and lower demand from the replacement market.
"Higher cost of ownership and negative sentiment are impacting the industry," Mr. Sandilya said.
He urged the central bank to cut lending rates, and the federal government to boost infrastructure spending, intensify economic activity and take steps to help turn around automobile sales.

One common cause for deadlocks when using InnoDB tables is from the existence of foreign key constraints and the shared locks (S-lock) they acquire on referenced rows.
The reason I want to discuss them though is because they are often a bit tricky to diagnose, especially if you are only looking at the SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS output (which might be a bit counter-intuitive since one would expect it to contain this info).
Let me show a deadlock error to illustrate (below is from SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS\g):

Lafourche police identify man in U.S. 90 incident
Published: Friday, December 28, 2012 at 9:43 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, December 28, 2012 at 9:43 p.m.
A man who was arrested Thursday after a manhunt that stalled traffic on U.S. 90 has been identified by the Lafourche Sheriff's Office as Joseph Eatmon, 33, of Jasper, Ala.
Eatmon was involved in a car wreck just before 9 a.m. near the La. 182 exit of U.S. 90, Sheriff's Office spokesman Brennan Matherne said in a news release.
After the crash, another driver stopped to check on those involved. As the driver slowed, Matherne said Eatmon pointed a gun at the driver and demanded his keys, which the driver surrendered.
At that time, a U.S. Department of Homeland Security investigator who was passing by stopped and identified himself as a federal agent, Matherne said. As he attempted to have the gunman surrender, Eatmon jumped onto the back of a semi-truck trailer that was stopped.
The driver of the truck then drove away before realizing Eatmon was aboard, Matherne said. When he noticed the passenger, the truck driver stopped, and Eatmon continued to flee into some nearby woods.
A police K-9 eventually assisted in Eatmon's arrest, Matherne said. Nobody was injured.
Matherne said Eatmon refused to cooperate with investigators and was eventually booked on charges of armed robbery, aggravated assault and resisting an officer. He is being held on a $106,000 bond at the Lafourche Parish jail.
State Police Troop C also cited Eatmon on hit and run, reckless operation and no driver's license.
Eatmon has been arrested multiple times in Alabama, Missouri and Tennessee on charges of stealing, assaulting a law enforcement officer, DUI, resisting, escape and leaving the scene of an accident, deputies said.

STANFORD -- Henry Anderson grew up in the heart of SEC country and rooted for the Georgia Bulldogs until they declined to offer him a scholarship. Now a fifth-year senior, Stanford's starting defensive end hopes to finally get a shot at one of the SEC kingpins he grew up watching.
The inaugural College Football Playoff increases the likelihood that his hope will become reality.
"I'm glad college football has it," said Anderson, who's from Atlanta. "I'm not thinking too far ahead, but it's something we're aiming for. And not just getting in, but winning it."
After four consecutive appearances in the Bowl Championship Series and back-to-back Pac-12 titles, Stanford has one step remaining on its journey from laughingstock to powerhouse: the national championship.
In past years, a shot at the title required the Cardinal to be one of two teams left standing at the end of the regular season -- a brutally difficult task given the strength of its schedule and the near certainty that a team from the SEC would gobble up one of the spots.
The playoff doubles the number of contenders. Four teams will participate in the semifinals, hosted by the Rose and Sugar bowls, with the winners advancing to the title game at Cowboys Stadium.
"If we get to a point late in the year where we're vying for a chance to go to the Pac-12 championship, then (the playoff) will become reality," said Stanford coach David Shaw, whose team is ranked 11th in The Associated Press preseason poll. "Now, it's a pipe dream that just about every school has."
Stanford's playoff drive depends on how quickly the offensive line coalesces, the emergence of a productive running game and filling holes on a defense hit hard by attrition -- issues that have been well-documented for the past eight months.
But there are other issues at play, beginning with the end -- the end of games.
The Cardinal was built with brute force in mind, with a ground-and-pound approach that wears down opponents over the course of the game. Sure enough, Stanford outscored its opponents 424-304 in the fourth quarter over a four-year span that ended in 2012.
Last year, the Cardinal lost its grip on the final quarter. It was outscored 92-85, failing to make the necessary plays against Utah, USC and Michigan State. And it nearly wasted away two victories, hanging on against Washington and Oregon despite being outscored by a combined 27-3.
"One of our mottos is, finish strong," Anderson said. "Look at the Rose Bowl -- we didn't finish. The way we play, we want to pound it out, and by the fourth quarter, the other team just doesn't want any more.
"Conditioning is a big part of it, but you've got to be mentally tough enough, too."
Tough enough to navigate a rugged schedule that includes six teams ranked in the AP preseason poll: USC, Oregon, UCLA, Arizona State, Washington and Notre Dame. All except USC are on the road.
But the games that worry Shaw the most, it seems, are those with lower profiles.
Stanford has had little trouble when the spotlight is brightest, winning 10 of its last 11 against ranked opponents. But in each of the past two years, the Cardinal lost to unranked foes: in 2012 to Washington, which finished 7-6, and in 2013 to Utah, which went 5-7.
The road to the playoffs includes sinkholes and black ice.
"The biggest challenge for this team is (playing) our 12 best games on those 12 dates," Shaw said. "For us to think we can not play our best and beat anybody on our schedule is folly.
"This is going to be hard. We have to realize it's going to be a tough road. We're going to have high points, and that's great. But what happens when we have a low point?
"How will we handle that?"
The playoff selection committee will be watching.
Montgomery, who doubles as an All-America kickoff returner, is awaiting clearance from the medical staff. He had offseason shoulder surgery and did not participate in contact drills during training camp.
In addition, Kelsey Young is the No. 1 tailback on the depth chart, ahead of Barry Sanders, Ricky Seale and Remound Wright.
Blake Martinez is the listed starter at inside linebacker (Shayne Skov's old position), and Kyle Olugbode, a former walk-on from Bellarmine College Prep-San Jose, is the No. 1 safety.

STOCKTON — Former Fire Chief Ron Hittle and a 26-year-old man permanently disabled in a motorcycle accident will have to wait to take Stockton to trial after the city buttons up its bankruptcy case, a judge ruled today.
Yet U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Klein didn't dispense so quickly with a third case before him in a hearing lasting all morning.
In that case, the city wishes to pay a man $55,000 and end a lawsuit alleging police used excessive force. Large creditors with hundreds of millions at stake in Stockton's bankruptcy objected, saying it was unfair to them if the city settled cases outside of bankruptcy court.
Klein called this a "difficult decision," and asked for attorneys to file more briefs so he make a well-informed decision.

SAN MARCOS, Texas - The Texas A&M - Corpus Christi women's tennis team lost a 5-2 decision against the Texas State Bobcats on Saturday in a Southland Conference match at the Bobcat Tennis Complex.
The Islanders are now 8-4 overall and 5-3 in Southland matches. Texas State improves to 8-7 on the year and evened their league record to 4-4.
In doubles play, Mirna Cicak and Sandra Burges dropped an 8-6 final at No. 1 before Mia Matuszak and Stefania Nicolae grabbed an 8-6 win at No. 3 to even the score. The Bobcats finished the doubles portion of the match with a 9-7 win over Bianca Discordia and Doris Kuselj at No. 2 to take a 1-0 lead in the dual match.
"We dug a hole for ourselves losing the doubles point when we were up 5-1 in the deciding match," said Moore. "But I'd rather that happen now and learn from it than it happen in the conference tournament.
"Give credit to Texas State, they really clawed back to win that doubles and take the momentum from us. Honestly we just didn't recover."
In singles, Nicolae won a 6-3, 7-5 final at No. 4 and Cicak picked up a point for Texas A&M - Corpus Christi with her 7-5, 3-6, 10-6 win at the No. 1 position. It was all the team would be able to capture however, as Kuselj lost 6-3, 6-2 at No. 2 singles, Discordia absorbed a 6-3, 6-4 final at No. 3, Burges fell in three sets by a 1-6, 6-2, 10-2 final at No. 5 and Matuszak lost 6-0, 6-3 in No. 6 singles.
"I thought Mirna played a great match," said Moore. "Doris was fighting like a warrior when she is barely healthy enough to be on the court.
"We have to do a better job coaching them through the singles and not allowing momentum to swing like that. That's our job as the coaches."
The Islanders will be back in action on Sunday morning when they take on No. 58 UT Arlington at 11:00 a.m. to finish off their season-high six-match road trip. The Lady Mavs are undefeated in the Southland Conference and have beaten nationally-ranked Kansas and Wichita State in addition to defending conference champion Northwestern State.
"We have to stick together, keep learning and be ready to compete hard again tomorrow," said Moore. "That's what this journey is all about, sticking together and bouncing back.
"This team is young, but they have a lot of character and I have a lot of confidence in them as this season winds down."

Commodities or Stamps: Sampling the Soup poison: Some 1 ,600 Indians on the Flathead Reservation may find themselves in the middle of the food crisis by the middle of next year. The problem is Congress and the U.S. Department of Agriculture want to close down the St. Ignatius Surplus Commodities Food Office by June 30, 1974. They want to replace the commodities program here and throughout the United States with food stamps. Food stamps are coupons low-income people buy from county welfare at a discount and use to buy groceries of their choice at participating markets. But the Tribe and Lake County feel that switching 1,596 Indians and narly 1,00 0 other persons from free commodities to discount food stamps might be an intolerable burden. The County has officially appealed to the Montana Department of Social and Rehabilitation Ser- vices to delay the switch because they feel it would result in a "special hardship in this area." Both the Tribe and the County feel that food stamps, which can cost the recipient as much as three-fourths of the retail value of the food, would be a financial millstone for persons now using commodities. Both also feel that stricter certification procedures under the food stamp program, which requires that recipients must be recerti- fied each month in Poison, would be very difficult for people living in the extreme southern part of the reservation. But there is another side to the story. Commodities, as everybody who receives them must have noticed recently, are not what they used to be. Earlier this year cheese, one of the tastiest and most highly valued commodities, disappeared from monthly packages, (cont. on page 5) Tribe Polls 18-Year-Old Vote Saturday Two Issues To Be Resolved Ronan: This Saturday 1,866 Tribal Members will decide whether or not the change the Tribal Constitution to allow 18 year olds a vote in tribal elections.

EVANSTON, Ill. -- After nine months of reinvention in the wake of the worst defensive season in Cal football history, the Golden Bears get to put it to the test Saturday at Northwestern.
Here's what has changed on defense since a gruesome 63-13 loss to Stanford in the Big Game: A new coordinator, two new position coaches, the return of key players who missed last season with injuries, and the arrival of newcomers recruited to fill holes and add depth.
Will the upgrades allow the Bears to be competitive against a schedule that ESPN ranks as the third-toughest in the nation?
"I like what I see," coach Sonny Dykes said. "I have a lot of confidence in those guys, probably a lot more than I should based on what I saw last year."
The Bears' 1-11 season was defined by a defense that allowed 45.9 points per game last season -- second-worst in the country and a school record by a significant margin.
Dating back to the end of the 2012 season, Cal has failed to hold an opponent under 30 points for 14 consecutive games. In 11 of those games, the other team scored 40 or more.
Art Kaufman, whose defense at Cincinnati last year allowed just 21.0 points per game, was hired to take over as coordinator. He tweaked the Bears' 4-3 scheme and rebuilt with a personnel infusion.
Three players considered possibly this team's best on defense -- end Brennan Scarlett (hand), tackle Mustafa Jalil (knee) and safety Stefan McClure (knee) played in a combined five games last season.
Cal also brought in six junior college transfers to stiffen its defense.
"Let's go find out where we are," Kaufman said. "Let's play the game and see how fast we're going to play, what mistakes we're going to make, how we tackle. We've done a lot of work, and it's time to go play."
Sophomore Michael Barton, who will start at middle linebacker but also play some on the outside, said this defense is "night and day" better than last season.
"Guys are focused, guys are tuned in, we know what we're doing, we're confident, we're fast, we're strong," Barton said.
Northwestern beat the Bears 44-30 in Berkeley last year but struggled to a 1-7 record in Big Ten play. The Wildcats also expect to make a leap forward this fall.
Former coach Rick Neuheisel, now a studio analyst with the Pac-12 Networks, said no team in the country has a more important opener than the Bears.
"It's a huge game. Northwestern is still considered a big-time opponent. If Cal can go in there and compete -- they don't necessarily have to win -- and show there has been an improvement, I think people will breathe a little bit of a sigh of relief," he said.
The NU offense operates behind a line featuring players with 100 combined starts. Senior quarterback Trevor Siemian passed for 276 yards and a touchdown against the Bears last season, and senior running back Treyvon Green ran for 129 yards and two TDs.
NU coach Pat Fitzgerald said prepping for a Cal defense with so much that's new is a little tricky. "We won't know until halftime how they're attacking us," he said. "They've definitely got the advantage there."
The Wildcats figure to have watched Cincinnati tapes to learn Kaufman's tendencies and Cal tapes to study personnel.
"Either way," Scarlett said, "they're not going to be ready for what's coming out of the locker room."

Rushing yards: 188.6 10th

DOE Offers $105 Million Loan Guarantee for Cellulosic Bio-Refinery
DOE announced on July 7 the offer of a conditional commitment for a $105 million loan guarantee to support the development of the first commercial-scale cellulosic ethanol plant in the United States. Project LIBERTY, sponsored by POET, LLC, will produce up to 25 million gallons of ethanol per year and will be located in Emmetsburg, Iowa. POET estimates the project will generate approximately 200 jobs during construction and 40 permanent jobs at the plant.
Project LIBERTY will use corncobs, leaves, and husks as fuel sources that do not compete with feed grains. The project's innovative process uses enzymatic hydrolysis to convert waste into ethanol, and the project will produce enough biogas to power both Project LIBERTY and POET's adjacent grain-based ethanol plant. Project LIBERTY will displace over 13.5 million gallons of gasoline annually and fulfill more than 25% percent of the projected 2013 renewable fuel standard requirement for biomass-based cellulosic ethanol. POET plans to replicate its process at 27 other corn ethanol facilities, which would have a projected combined annual capacity of one billion gallons per year of cellulosic ethanol.
DOE's Loan Programs Office has issued loans or loan guarantees, or offered conditional commitments for loan guarantees totaling over $38 billion to support 41 clean energy projects across the United States. See the DOE press release and the Loans Program Office website.

Christian fiction, Christian suspense, Frank Peretti, Laura K. Cowan, Madeleine L'Engle, Melanie Wells, new novel, speculative supernatural fiction, spiritual fiction, Ted Dekker, The Little Seer, This Present Darkness, When The Day of Evil Comes
I'm very excited to announce today that my debut novel, The Little Seer, is now available on Amazon both as an e-book and paperback, as well as split into a 3-part novella trilogy: Exodus, Desert, and Midnight.
This spiritual warfare novel, a speculative supernatural coming of age story about a young girl whose disturbing dreams begin unfolding in her waking reality and radically change her view of who God is and what he thinks of her, will appeal to fans of speculative and fantastic authors Madeleine L'Engle, Frank Peretti, or Ted Dekker. The first book of the trilogy, Exodus, will be available from February 13-17 for free on Kindle, and Prime members can borrow any of the Kindle versions of the book for free for 90 days. Here's a little more info.
The Little Seer
A young girl wakes from a dream that a tornado destroyed her church and her pastor ordered crows to peck out her eyes, only to discover deep cuts on her arms where she was attacked. Soon her dreams begin unfolding in her waking reality, her church and family begin to fall apart, and the only anchor of her sanity is a strange man who keeps appearing in her ever stranger dreams. What is happening to Aria? How is it that her dreams can tell the future? And why is her identity key in a spiritual battle raging over her church and town that could decide not only her fate and that of her friends, but that of the whole country or even the world? A story for the dreamers and the truth tellers, The Little Seer never averts its gaze from the tragedies and possibilities of modern American Christian spirituality, and provides a vision for the hope of another great spiritual awakening that could be just around the corner–if we have eyes to see.
Blog Tour
Keep an eye on this blog for a giveaway and blog tour in the works. I hope you enjoy this story and many more to come over the next few years. I'm already working on my second novel, Music of Sacred Lakes, a spiritual, supernatural story about a young man finding his way back to his connection with the land that birthed him through the haunting of a young girl he accidentally kills. Stay tuned, and thanks for your support!

More about AVB at Spurs...
I just read the following article and thought others on here might enjoy it.
Interesting that the press seem less disparaging towards him after 6 months in charge.
Just wish HR lovers at Spurs would cut him more slack too.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
It was another strange performance for me yesterday. We dominated the possession, created two or three really good chances, created lots of not so good chances - but I always felt that Utd were playing in 1st gear and scared me senseless when they did break (although RvP, Rooney and Wellback barely got a sight of goal).
Lemmon was giving Evra a torrid time and I thought Daws looked quietly confident. Parker, after a bit of a shaky start with some misplaced passes settled nicely for his first game for ages - and Dempsey again saw more of the ball, Dembele worked well - but for all that, we still seemed to lack something to me. I'm not sure we have the ideas to break teams down.
A striker and a VdV replacement (I'm not sure that Dempsey, Gylfi are quite up to it on current performances) for me.

I think one of the problems is that we have no penalty box predators. Defoe mainly likes to play on the edge of the box and run across defenders and get a shot away, but very rarely makes runs in during build up play, plus he's very static, waiting for ball to come to him rather than gambleing when balls played across goal. Ade's much the same and like a powderpuff in the six yard box IMO. We need someone like Hernadez who is lethal in the box.
Cheers LTS,
A great read, thanks for sharing.
What did you think of today's performance?
I thought we earn't a point and could have won on another day, we had the lions share of the possession and crucially the better chances.

That was a good read, thanks lts. I was particularly interested in the bit about Dawson - I'm very curious about the situation around our 'surplus to requirements' captain.
Joe, I'd agree the draw was at least fair and we had the possession & chances, BUT we always do against Utd - they're very happy to defend deep and to allow possession, because they're clinical enough on the break, and usually we suffer from that. Usually most of our attempts seem at best speculative, so we'll have 20 half chances to their 3 good ones and lose 2-1. This season we've obviously tightened that; getting 4 points off them is a great haul.
Very pleased with getting the last minute goal, it shows a turnaround from letting them in (the reference to the change in train in the article was interesting too), and they've got to be gutted about that penalty shout!

Holstered pistol triggers police response at women's health clinic
PORTSMOUTH — A man with a holstered .45 pistol on his hip triggered a large police response to the Harbour Women's Health clinic Thursday afternoon, when a staff member called police to say the gun was being brandished during an argument. Following an on-scene investigation, police determined the gun owner, Johnathon Irish, was lawfully open-carrying the pistol at the OB-GYN practice on Griffin Road and that the gun was never waved or removed from its holster.

I feel like the parameters
- Code: Select all
have no influence whatsoever on the height, width and bitrate of my transcoded stream.
What are these settings for?
I could have sworn it worked before!
Cheers, scur
- Inb4 "Get a wired connection" - I have a wired connection, the problem is, it's run around the world but can only handly 4mbit/s
Inb4 "There is no advantage in transcoding over remuxing because it increases bitrate" - That's just the worst advice I've seen someone give on this forum. I need to rescale my HD movies to fit through the 4mbit . (This is perfectly possible in decent DVD-quality)
Inb4 "Get a decent machine" - I have quadcore at 4x4.2GHz running Windows Server 2008 R2 Datacenter.
Inb4 "You are not transcoding" - Oh boy, here it comes...

There is an old report in Debian BTS about memory used growing indefinitely.
Accordingly to the package documentation, undo history is infinite.
Even closing all the draws in qcad, the memory used isn't freed.
This can make memory used by qcad grow indefinitely.
It was reported for 184.108.40.206-1 but is still present on 220.127.116.11-1

- Opposition to affirmative action: California Asian Americans have forgotten civil rights history
BERKELEY -- The recent legislative effort to restore affirmative action in public university admissions "should've been called the 'There are too many Asians at Berkeley' bill," Republican candidate for governor Neel Kashkari told several hundred Cal students Wednesday.
Democrats "will never come out and say to you there are too many Asians at Berkeley, but that's what the bill was all about," Kashkari said of Senate Constitutional Amendment 5, recently shelved by Sacramento lawmakers after an outcry from many Chinese-American parents, who fear affirmative action would make it harder for their children to get into top schools like UC Berkeley and UCLA.
The comments came as Kashkari, an asset manager from Laguna Beach and former U.S. Treasury Department official, pitched his platform -- including the K-12 and higher education plan he unveiled a day earlier -- to students in a UC Berkeley political science seminar.
Kashkari, an Indo-American, continues a busy schedule of campaign visits around the state, even as he trails Republican rival Tim Donnelly and Gov. Jerry Brown while lacking enough money to stage anything more than a carefully targeted ad blitz in the race's final weeks.
His K-12 plan includes granting even more local control -- not just by districts but also by individual schools -- of state funding while eliminating most of the state Education Code so local principals, teachers and parents can use the money as they see fit. He also wants charter schools to have the same level of funding and facilities as traditional schools, and he would eliminate a cap that limits California to 100 new charter schools per year.
For higher education, Kashkari wants to tie state funding to campuses' success rates -- as measured by credits accumulated, students retained, courses completed and degrees awarded -- while putting more UC and CSU courses online and offering free tuition to science, technology, engineering and math students in exchange for a cut of their future earnings.
Education inequality is the root cause of income inequality, Kashkari said Wednesday, claiming that his plan would go a long way toward curing both. He also reiterated the jobs plan he rolled out last month, which includes "unleashing the private sector" -- especially manufacturing and oil and gas production -- from what he says are excessive regulations.
Asked how he could win support from the Democrat-controlled Legislature, Kashkari replied that "the executive branch has to provide leadership and say, 'Here is the biggest problem we are facing,'" and then work across the aisle to solve it. If that doesn't work, he said, the governor can take reforms directly to voters via ballot measures -- an avenue that many Capitol observers say didn't work so well for former Republican Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.
"It's not going to be easy, but to make bold changes a governor has to use every power in his or her arsenal," Kashkari said. "We're a democracy and the people of California can make any changes they want if they're so motivated to do it."
