DAYTON, Ohio — A security guard at the newly-opened Love's Travel Stop here shot and fatally wounded a truck driver Sunday night.
Police said there was no indication that 48-year old Goran Sojic, an owner-operator contracted with Universal Trucking, was armed when he was shot by Joshua Karp, an employee of Arrow Security located in New York.
Witnesses said Sojic charged at the guard and was acting erratic.
A professional truck driver who contacted The Trucker Tuesday said Sojic was of foreign descent and was having trouble communicating with the security guard.
"We don't know yet what precipitated this incident," Lt. Wendy Stiver of the Dayton Police Department told the Dayton Daily News. "We don't know why this man was behaving that way."
Loves Travel Stops released a statement Monday extending condolences to the victims' friends and family.
"We are deeply saddened by an incident that occurred at our new location in Dayton, Ohio, yesterday involving a Love's customer and a private, third-party security guard," the statement reads. "Our hearts and prayers go out to the family and friends of our customer. Love's is working closely with law enforcement to investigate the situation and we thank all of our loyal customers for the outpouring of support."
When police responded to a call about the incident about 7:30 p.m. Sunday, Sojic had been shot in the chest and arm.
He was taken to Miami Valley Hospital, but died as a result of the shooting.
Sojic lived in Naperville, Ill. according to the Montgomery County Coroner's office. He had parked his truck at Love's Sunday night.
According to witnesses, including a customer and an employee inside the store, Sojic had been asked to leave the travel center prior to the shooting. At some point he came back inside and began walking toward the counter of the truck stop store, almost appearing as if he was attempting to go behind the counter, according to Dayton police, who said the guard felt threatened and shot at Sojic.
Stiver told the Dayton newspaper that the level of security at Love's would have been suggested for any 24-hour business, regardless of location. The area near the truck stop is known to police as a high drug and crime area with dozens of drug arrests taking place in the parking lots of a BP gas station, Wendy's and McDonald's nearby in the past five years, according to police reports.
Charges from the shooting will not be filed until a full investigation is completed. Homicide detectives interviewed Karp at the scene, but he was not taken into custody.

Meet Service Director Dan Ashe.
I'm finishing up a great trip to Florida this week. Tuesday morning, I was with Secretary Salazar and Senator Bill Nelson, along the Tamiami Trail.
No, it's not actually a trail.
It's basically a fill causeway through the heart of the Everglades that was constructed in the early 1900s, connecting Tampa and Miami; hence "Tamiami."
It constricts water flow through the Everglades, and a major part of the Everglades restoration is a project to elevate a 1-mile stretch of the road, allowing water to flow more naturally and letting the "River of Grass" behave more like a river.
But we weren't there to celebrate that project.
We were there to announce our new Lacey Act rule to list 4 species of large constrictor snakes, including Burmese python as injurious and to ban their importation and movement in interstate commerce. Believed to be derived from discarded or escaped pets, there is now a wild, naturally reproducing population of Burmese pythons likely totaling in the tens of thousands.
They can grow to over 20 feet and exceed 200 pounds. On Tuesday, we had a relatively small one on display for a battery of media cameras; a mere 13-footer, weighing about 90 pounds. Plenty of snake for me, thanks very much!

Disneyland Here We Come!
Last week my hubby and I celebrated our 26th wedding anniversary and took a trip up north to the Pocono Mountains region. While we were on our little trip my husband gave me a surprise and I am so excited to tell you all about it.
You see, my 45th birthday is coming up in June and for the past 7 years I have been bugging my husband to take me to California. My business partner and best friend Chris lives in California and I desperately want to spend some time with her.
Hubby informed me that he booked us a 2 week trip to go out to California to see my friend Chris and while we are there, we will be visiting Disneyland! yeah! My husband found a super good deal on Disneyland tickets online so he purchased them for us.
We have been to Disney World a few times, but we have never been to Disneyland so we are both super excited about this upcoming trip! I am hoping that the first person I see when I walk through those Disneyland gates is Minnie Mouse! I just adore her and when we went to Disney World last year, I never got to see her.
We will be leaving for our trip the middle of June and will be returning back home on July 2nd, just in time for the July 4th holiday. Then 3 weeks after that, we will be heading to the Bahamas for a cruise to the tropics.
I am really looking forward to summer this year and all of our vacation plans. Do any of you have any special vacation plans for the summer? If so, where will you be going?

Not only is San Francisco-based UFC lightweight Gilbert Melendez staying in the UFC, he's getting a title shot.
The UFC announced Sunday night that Melendez and lightweight champion Anthony Pettis will be opposing coaches on the upcoming season of The Ultimate Fighter. The show will begin filming in May and start airing in September. The two will then fight for the belt later this year.
Melendez, the former Strikeforce and WEC lightweight champion, announced last week that he was leaving UFC for rival MMA promotion Bellator on a multi-year deal. The UFC had an opportunity to match, and it appears they have.
Melendez (22-3), fought for the UFC lightweight title in his UFC debut last April in San Jose, falling to then-champion Benson Henderson by split decision. Later in October, 'El Nino' won a unanimous decision over Diego Sanchez in a contest that many MMA pundits considered Match of the Year.
The upcoming title fight will be the first defense for Pettis (19-2). 'Showtime' defeated Henderson by 1st-round submission to win the 155-lb title in August.
Melendez gets shot at Pettis' lightweight belt

I'm trying to do as much detailed research into copper (II) sulphate as an enzyme inhibitor as possible, as my AS coursework investigates the effects and I want to explain in as much detail as I can.
However, there's nothing in my textbook as it's not part of the syllabus for the exams. I've looked online and found almost nothing.
So I was wondering if anyone knew of any books that might be of any use. The school library has quite a wide variety of biology textbooks, but I thought it would be helpful if there were any I should look for in particular, so I could narrow down my search.
Thanks in advance.
Research into Copper (II) Sulphate as an Enzyme Inhibitor
|Posted on
The ion, Cu2+, is a heavy metal metal ion. It acts as a non-active site directed inhibitor. Instead of researching the specific effect of copper ions, find out about heavy metal ions as enzyme inhibitors - which will be in your text book (as it should be in your syllabus).
Hope that helps
I did find a bit about heavy metal ions as inhibitors.
Have you any advice on what statistical methods to use when analysing my results? I have used the standard deviation to show reliability of each set of results, and I am trying to calculate the rate, but I don't know how to calculate the rate when the concn is 0.
can anyone tell me the method for : Effect of copper sulphate on a solution of amylase and starch using iodine. please help

Stocks to Watch: Microchip Technology, Alcoa, Novellus
This morning's stocks to watch include Microchip Technology, Alcoa, Novellus Systems, and more:
Microchip Technology lowered its earnings guidance for the fiscal first-quarter, citing challenges in its automotive segment tied to the earthquake in Japan. Shares fell 9% to $34.10 in premarket trading. Microchip's guidance weighed on shares of its rivals, with Texas Instruments, which reports earnings later this month, down 1.4% to $32 premarket while Analog Devices fell 1.9% to $37.82. Atmel lost 2% to $13.60 and ON Semiconductor dropped 3.6% to $9.76.
Alcoa Inc.'s profit more than doubled in the second quarter, but the giant aluminum producer managed only to meet analysts' recently lowered forecasts as costs rose for fuel oil, caustic soda and other materials. Shares fell 1.3% to $15.71 premarket.
Novellus Systems posted second-quarter results in line with its expectations, but revenue was a little light compared with Street expectations and a little shy of its guidance midpoint. Novellus also projected a weak third-quarter view and said its foundry customers are getting cautious. Shares fell 5% to $33.98 in premarket trading.
NCR, best known for making automated teller machines and cash registers, said it agreed to take over Radiant Systems in a cash deal worth $1.13 billion as it continues to diversify its offerings. Shares of Radiant, which makes computerized payment systems and other back-office software, surged 31% in premarket trading to $28, matching NCR's cash tender offer.
Chesapeake Energy unveiled a more than $1 billion investment plan aimed at boosting U.S. natural-gas demand, including plans to invest $100 million in newly issued convertible debt of Clean Energy Fuels. Clean Energy, which builds natural-gas fueling stations for heavy-duty trucks, saw its shares jump 11% to $14.60 in premarket trading. Chesapeake shares were down 0.5% at $29.60 premarket.

Definición de sibling en inglés:
Each of two or more children or offspring having one or both parents in common; a brother or sister.
Oraciones de ejemplo

brother or sister;

Old English, in the sense 'relative' (see sib, -ling). The current sense dates from the early 20th century.
gossip from Old English:
In Old English godsibb or gossip was the word for a godparent. It literally meant 'a person related to one in God' and came from god 'God' and sibb 'a relative', the latter word found in sibling (Old English). Gossip came to be applied to a close friend, especially a female friend invited to be present at a birth. From this developed the idea of a person who enjoys indulging in idle talk, and by the 19th century idle talk or tittle-tattle itself.

NEW DELHI: Experts feel that most companies, in both the private and public sectors, may not be following prudent accounting practices while providing leave encashment of their employees. At a time when pension liabilities are being provided for as per new accounting norms, they feel that significant unfunded leave encashment liabilities have accrued for some of these companies.
Indian banks and companies have an unusual practice of 'leave encashment' unlike other employers globally. Although not unique to India, the concept of employees being able to carry forward and encash unused leave until as late as the point they leave the company is definitely something not commonly seen globally, experts feel.

Light , height, space is the mantra, I was told as I walked into the eyewateringly white lobby of The Oberoi Gurgaon. A bold philosophy indeed for a hotel set in the scorching dust bowl of the Aravallis where every square inch of real estate means moolah.

As a partial antidote to the misinformation issued by Scottish Quality Salmon (namely "10 Reasons to be Cheerful" issued as a "morale booster for a besieged industry": http://www.scottishsalmon.co.uk/whatsnow/index.html) the Salmon Farm Protest Group presents some of the negative facets of an industry in crisis, of which Scotland should be ashamed. Compare Scottish Quality Salmon's "10 Reasons to be Cheerful" with our "10 Reasons to Boycott Scottish 'Quality' Salmon This Christmas". There are serious reasons to be fearful of cheap and nasty farmed salmon this Christmas – it is certainly not the season to be cheerful about Scottish 'quality' salmon
1) Scottish 'quality' salmon is
a sham, a scam and a consumer con
2) The vast majority of fresh and smoked salmon sold in supermarkets is farmed
3) Farmed salmon is so contaminated with cancer-causing chemicals that the Food Standards Agency advice is to eat only one portion of salmon per week
4) Farmed salmon contains more fat and is less healthy than wild salmon
5) Labelling of farmed salmon products is unclear
6) Artificial colourants are fed to farmed salmon to make their flesh pink
7) Illegal chemicals have been detected in farmed salmon on sale in UK supermarkets
8) Farmed salmon are cooped up like battery chickens spreading diseases, parasites and untreated wastes
9) Wild salmon and sea trout are being threatened with extinction by thousands of farmed salmon escapees
10) Farmed salmon depend upon a food supply that is both depleted and contaminated

1) Scottish 'quality' salmon is a sham, a scam and a consumer con
Scottish Quality Salmon's 'Tartan Quality Mark' is little more than a sales gimmick to sell cheap farmed salmon. All SQS production is farmed not wild, not even the 'Spey Valley Smoked Salmon' sold by Safeway (farmed in the Western Isles but transported across Scotland to be smoked "on the banks of the River Spey"). Like the Emperor's new clothes, when you look more closely at the claims of SQS everything is laid bare. 80% of Scottish salmon production is controlled by Norwegian and Dutch multinationals; quality was sacrificed for quantity a long time ago (less than 1,000 tonnes of 'Scottish' farmed salmon was produced in 1980, rising to 30, 000 tonnes in 1990 and over 130,000 in 2001); and the factory farmed freak sold cheaply in supermarkets is a poor relation to wild salmon – a couch potato compared to the King of Fish. Next time you see the Scottish Quality Salmon logo look beyond the Tartan Quality Mark and ask what it actually stands for.

"Salmon safety scare spawns fear and paranoia among scientists"
2) The vast majority of fresh and smoked salmon sold in supermarkets is farmed
Think twice before buying fresh farmed salmon this Christmas. Smoked farmed salmon, for example, has been found to be contaminated with listeria (http://18.104.22.168/recall/f/00/craigsal.htm). The list of other 'hidden extras' such as artificial colourings (E161g) and chemical contaminants is an alarming one. The customer may be getting more than they bargained for when falling for BOGOF (Buy One Get One Free) special offers on 'fresh' and smoked salmon this Christmas. Consumer perception that most fresh and smoked salmon is wild is a myth ruthlessly exploited by supermarkets intent on profiting from public ignorance. 99% of fresh salmon and smoked salmon sold in supermarkets is factory farmed – for canned salmon the opposite is true: 99% of canned salmon is wild (although this is changing as more farmed salmon finds its way into cans). Sainsbury's and M&S occasionally sell fresh wild Alaskan salmon but even John West salmon, traditionally wild salmon sold in cans, is now sold fresh but this is farmed Scottish salmon not wild salmon. Farmed salmon is also being off-loaded into cans with John West salmon fillets from Norway and Princes red salmon from Chile both of farmed origin. Glenryck's red salmon, for example, "from the crystal clear waters of the South Pacific Ocean" certainly implies it is wild but the only wild Atlantic salmon populations in Chile are farmed escapees. The giveaway on the label is under nutritional information where there is 12.7% fat (see point 4). Always read the label carefully (unfortunately the labelling of salmon products is often unclear – see point 5).

"Contaminated Craigellachie smoked Scottish salmon recalled"
3) Farmed salmon is so contaminated with cancer-causing chemicals that the Food Standards Agency advice is to eat only one portion of salmon per week
Cancer-causing chemicals called PCBs, dioxins and other organochlorine contaminants such as DDT, hexachlorobenzene, dieldrin and chlordane have all been detected in farmed salmon (these chemicals bio-accumulate via salmon feed which contains contaminated fish meal and fish oil). These contaminants are present in most foods but for oily fish in general and farmed salmon in particular the problem is the most severe. According to The Independent (http://www.independent.co.uk/story.jsp?story=104339) more than a third of the UK population are already exceeding food safety limits by consuming too much oily fish including farmed salmon and dioxins in babies are "at 85 times the safety limit" (http://www.independent.co.uk/story.jsp?story=352954). A recent survey by the Consumers' Association, as published in Which?, revealed that few people are aware of the health problems of eating too much fish (http://www.independent.co.uk/story.jsp?story=339006). We have polluted our marine environment to such an extent that we are now reaping the consequences via contamination of our entire food chain – the problem of dioxin contamination is now so severe that a new Government report fears it will take at least 20 years and cost £10 billion (http://www.observer.co.uk/uk_news/story/0,6903,837126,00.html). In the meantime, the safest solution is to steer clear of those fatty foods most contaminated with toxic chemicals such as DDT, dioxins and PCBs – and that means avoiding farmed salmon (http://www.sundayherald.com/28565).
Increasing scientific evidence points to farmed salmon being much more contaminated than wild salmon (whose natural diet in the wild is far less contaminated). For example, a survey by the Irish Food Safety Authority in March 2002 showed the farmed salmon was four times more contaminated with PCBs than wild salmon (http://www.fsai.ie/industry/Dioxins3.htm). Another survey in North America showed farmed salmon were ten times more contaminated than wild salmon for PCBs (http://www.cbc.ca/stories/2002/05/17/Consumers/salmon_020517). A survey of Scottish and Norwegian salmon also showed contamination of farmed salmon with PCBs and dioxins (http://www.sundayherald.com/26081). The UK Government has also found higher levels of contaminants in farmed salmon as compared to wild. 97% of fresh (i.e. farmed) salmon tested by the Government's Pesticides Residues Committee was contaminated with DDT compared to 24% for canned (i.e. wild) salmon. 44% of the fresh salmon tested positive for multiple residues of DDT, hexachlorobenzene and chlordane compared to only 1% of canned salmon. Testing by the UK's Veterinary Medicines Directorate (http://www.vmd.gov.uk) has also detected PCBs, dioxins and dieldrin in Scottish, Chilean and Norwegian farmed salmon and DDT in Danish farmed trout.
An award-winning BBC documentary (http://www.bbc.co.uk/nature/programmes/tv/salmon/) broadcast in January 2001 featuring these alarming findings led to the UK's Food Standards Agency emphasising that farmed salmon was safe to eat but couched in the caveat that it should only be eaten once a week (http://www.food.gov.uk/news/pressreleases/fishadvice) - the clear implication being that eating more than one portion of farmed salmon a week would exceed food safety limits. That is why M&S's 'Gravadlax Scottish salmon' and 'Orkney Scottish smoked salmon' now reads "nutrition experts recommend eating a portion of oily fish such as salmon each week as part of a balanced diet" (last year they were advising consumers to eat "2-3 portions of oily fish"). M&S, just to be on the safe side, might as well add: 'nutrition experts recommend that you do not eat more than one portion of oily fish such as salmon each week'. Meanwhile, Tesco proudly advertise that their farmed salmon is "High in Omega-3s" but are less keen to stress it could also be high in PCBs, dioxins or DDT (or that wild salmon can contain more Omega-3s).
In view of dioxin and PCB contamination, the Food Standards Agency's current advice is to eat only one portion of oily fish (including salmon) per week (http://www.food.gov.uk/news/pressreleases/36454/36501?version=1) - for small children there are particular concerns (http://www.food.gov.uk/news/pressreleases/36454/36504?version=1) - but the FSA's claim that there is no difference between wild and farmed salmon (http://www.food.gov.uk/news/pressreleases/36454/36506?version=1) is not backed up by the latest scientific evidence. According to The Guardian (http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk_news/story/0,3604,772857,00.html) there is an ongoing debate within the Government over how much fish is safe to eat due to contamination concerns. For farmed salmon it is becoming increasingly clear that the problem could be four to ten times worse than wild salmon. The safest option, purely from a food safety point of view, would surely be to switch consumption of fresh farmed salmon once a week to one portion of canned wild salmon once a week. As a seasonal treat, go wild this Christmas!

"Salmon farmers braced for clampdown on toxins"
Further information is also presented in Question 6 of "The Key Questions": http://www.salmonfarmmonitor.org/documents/questions.html
4) Farmed salmon contains more fat and is less healthy than wild salmon
According to data gathered by the US Food and Drug Administration and presented on supermarket labels farmed salmon contain more fat (over 10 times more in some cases!) and are lower in the beneficial essential fatty acids such as omega-3 than wild salmon. For further dietary information search for 'salmon' in the USDA database: http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/cgi-bin/nut_search.pl
This data is also presented in "Farmed and dangerous: human health risks associated with salmon farming": http://www.ancientrainforest.org/reports.html
The stark contrast between lean wild salmon and fatty farmed salmon is evident if you take the time and trouble to read the nutritional information on salmon labels. For example, M&S's 'Wild Pacific oak smoked salmon' contains only 1.1% fat compared to 13.4% fat for their farmed 'Scottish salmon fillet' and 14.2% for their farmed 'Scottish salmon steaks'. The fat content of wild salmon compares more favourably with turkey and chicken (1-2%) whilst factory farmed salmon can have high fat levels on a par with bacon (10-21%). You can even see the fat in the streaky white lines on farmed salmon steaks and fillets – this sorry salmon is so fatty it cannot be sliced thinly for smoked salmon. Whilst wild salmon is clearly a healthier option, fatty farmed salmon is not. Celebrity TV chef Nick Nairn shuns most farmed salmon because "the quality is no better than cat food" (http://forests.org/archive/general/seaffarm.htm).
Supermarkets, however, are resorting to desperate measures in claiming farmed salmon are "high in Omega-3s" whilst ignoring the fact that farmed salmon can contain over ten times more fat and ten times more PCBs (see point 3). In some Tesco supermarkets, for example, there are "Did you know….Salmon is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids – Omega-3 oils are needed for a healthy heart" labels on its fresh farmed salmon steaks (which contain only 2% Omega-3s in a fat total of 11%). Wild salmon simply taste better and have better texture than farm-raised fish, which tend to be mushy and insipid. This is not altogether surprising since the leaping wild salmon migrates thousands of miles and is a fighting fit ocean-going athlete compared to the flabby farmed salmon cooped up in cages like couch potatoes getting no exercise at all.

5) Labelling of farmed salmon products is unclear
Supermarkets are so worried customers will stop buying salmon once they find out it is farmed that the labelling of salmon is deliberately unclear. Some supermarkets are still flouting a European law on fish labelling which makes it compulsory to label fish products as farmed or wild (http://www.sundayherald.com/23050). The European Commission is taking the issue of food fraud so seriously that it has launched an investigation to catch retailers falsely labelling farmed salmon as wild (http://europa.eu.int/comm/research/growth/gcc/projects/food-fraud.html#05). Pictures of fishing boats, 'catch of the day' special offers and images of 'crystal clear blue waters' are used to mislead consumers into thinking salmon is wild not farmed. Safeway, for example, sell 'Spey Valley Smoked Scottish Salmon' which has nothing whatsoever to do with the famous wild salmon river, the Spey, but is instead farmed off the West coast of Scotland and then transported over to the East coast to try and cash in on the cachet of the Spey's wild salmon. So-called 'organic' salmon is also farmed and whilst it does not contain the artificial colourant Canthaxanthin (E161g) organic salmon has been found to contain the contaminants DDT and hexachlorobenzene. Choosing organic salmon may be neither an environmentally friendly nor healthy option.
For further information see "Stores ignore EU laws on fish labelling: supermarkets 'mislead' public over seafood":
"Food fraud: detecting food law cheats: salmon - wild or farmed?"
"Supermarkets criticised over 'organic' fish - supermarkets have been accused of cashing in on the organic food boom by misleading consumers over Scottish salmon"
"Shops in salmon boycott over virus"
6) Artificial colourants are fed to farmed salmon to make their flesh pink
Unlike wild salmon that obtain their pink colour from their natural diet, farmed salmon have a dirty grey appearance. Market research has shown that consumers will pay more for darker coloured salmon (that is why can of wild pink salmon are cheaper than wild red salmon) so salmon farmers cheat by using pink and red dyes. Salmon farmers can even choose how red they want their fish to be coloured by using a 'SalmoFan' - rather like using a colour chart to pick the right shade for your bathroom. Farmed salmon are therefore fed an artificial diet containing the colourant Canthaxanthin – also known as E161g - and Astaxanthin. Canthaxanthin is manufactured by the Swiss pharmaceutical firm Hoffman La-Roche and is banned for direct use in food (a loophole means it can still be used in farmed salmon feed - and in chicken feed to make the yolks of eggs more 'sunset yellow'). Following health fears linking Canthaxanthin to eye defects in children the European Commission in April 2002 proposed a four-fold reduction of Canthaxanthin in farmed salmon (the full EC Scientific Committee paper is available via the Food Standards Agency: http://www.food.gov.uk/foodindustry/Consultations/completed_consultations/completconsultscot/88722) who are currently investigating the issue (http://www.food.gov.uk/multimedia/webpage/askanexpertnew/95464/89079).

7) Illegal chemicals have been detected in farmed salmon on sale in UK supermarkets
As well as containing contaminants and artificial colourings, farmed salmon on sale in UK supermarkets has been found to contain illegal residues of other chemicals. Government testing of farmed salmon by the Veterinary Medicines Directorate (http://www.vmd.gov.uk) from August 2001 to July 2002 detected illegal residues of malachite green in five samples of salmon on sale in UK supermarkets. In 1999 the Department of Health's Committee on Mutagenicity expressed fears over malachite green's carcinogenicity (http://www.doh.gov.uk/com/malachit.htm) with the Food Standards Agency later calling for a ban (http://www.independent.co.uk/story.jsp?story=62638). In June 2002 the Scottish Executive banned malachite green following "European Commission concerns about the continued use of malachite green in salmon and trout farming in the UK": http://www.scotland.gov.uk/pages/news/2002/06/seen056.aspx
Ivermectin has also been detected in farmed Scottish salmon in testing by the Government's Veterinary Medicines Directorate. In January 2002 a member of the Shetland Salmon Farmers Association and a member of the Shetland Seafood Quality Control scheme was fined £6,000 for the illegal use of ivermectin (http://www.fishing-news.co.uk/headlines/feb02/setters01.htm). In July 2000 Scottish Quality Salmon ejected a member of their Tartan Quality Mark scheme after allegations of the illegal use of both ivermectin and cypermethrin (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/scotland/841811.stm).
In addition to the illegal chemicals used on salmon farms there is a cocktail of licensed chemicals used to treat diseases and kill parasites such as sea lice (http://www.scotlandonsunday.com/scotland.cfm?id=212062002). Unfortunately, these toxic chemicals do not merely kill sea lice - they also kill other marine life such as shellfish (http://www.sundayherald.com/12277) and have even been shown to affect wild salmon. Cypermethrin, for example, is a suspected "gender bender" (a hormone-disrupting compound) and scientists have found it can negatively affect wild salmon's sense of smell and reproduction (http://www-heb.pac.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/congress/2002/Toxicol/Lower.pdf). Certainly, the farmed salmon label does not advertise the less palatable down-side of 'chemically challenged' salmon farming (http://www.independent.co.uk/story.jsp?story=5039), nor does it list the chemicals used during its production.

"Salmon farms: 'a licence to pollute' - watchdog attacked for letting use of chemical use spiral"
"Scottish salmon farming revolution that has left the seas awash with toxic chemicals"
8) Farmed salmon are cooped up like battery chickens spreading diseases, parasites and untreated wastes
Cramming up to 50,000 farmed salmon into a single cage is a recipe for disease and disaster for wild fish. A report - "In Too Deep: The Welfare of Factory Farmed Fish" - by Compassion in World Farming in January 2002 showed that each salmon has the equivalent of a bath-tub of water in which to swim in: http://www.ciwf.co.uk/Pubs/ciwf_publications.htm
Farming a migratory species such as the wild salmon - the King of Fish - that is used to roaming thousands of miles across the open ocean is akin to cooping up golden eagles for the dinner table. No wonder factory farms harbour infectious diseases and parasite infestations. Millions of farmed salmon die every year on Scottish salmon farms with 4 million slaughtered in 1998-9 solely due to Infectious Salmon Anaemia leading to a supermarket boycott of ISA-infected farms (http://www.sundayherald.com/5238). Currently over half of Scotland's salmon farms are affected by Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis restrictions (http://www.scottish.parliament.uk/official_report/wa-02/wa0925.htm). The factory farmed salmon is not only prone to disease and parasites but also to cataracts, deformed fins and tails, deformities such as hunchback and so-called 'death crowns' (where sea lice literally eat into the head of the salmon). Photos of sea lice infestation and diseased salmon are available at:
Sea lice breed in millions on salmon farms (http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/cgi-bin/abstract/93519308/START). New scientific research proves that salmon farms spread sea lice to both wild salmon and wild sea trout (http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2002/10/1022_021022_seatroutfish.html). Wild salmon are already extinct in many rivers on the West coast of Scotland and many more are threatened by the expansion of salmon farms at the mouths of wild salmon rivers (http://www.txinfinet.com/ban-gef/00/6/6-3.HTML). A report by the Association of West Coast Fisheries Trusts can also be downloaded via:
As well as spreading disease and parasites, salmon farms discharge untreated and contaminated wastes directly into the pristine coastal waters off Scotland. The less savoury image of thousands of densely packed farmed salmon swimming in a toxic chemical soup and their own excrement is a world away from the picture of the solitary leaping salmon employed to sell many farmed salmon products. Untreated sewage from salmon farms has been linked to the spread of toxic algal blooms and shellfish poisoning (http://www.sundayherald.com/6758) and has been calculated as being equivalent to a human population of over 9 million (http://www.sundayherald.com/10872) - in view of a Scottish population of 5 million this is hardly a drop in the ocean. So polluting a presence are salmon farms on Scottish lochs that they have left indelible scars; be it in pink dyes staining the sea-bed (http://www.fobhb.org/SundayTimes6.htm) or PCB contamination of the sediment (http://www.theherald.co.uk/news/archive/21-11-19101-23-58-40.html). Given salmon farming's capacity to foul its own nest it is not surprising it is labelled as a 'dirty' industry and more and more discerning shoppers are giving such a tainted product a wide berth.

"Last chance for Skye's salmon"
"Scotland's secret: aquaculture, nutrient pollution, eutrophication and toxic blooms" http://www.salmonfarmmonitor.org/documentarchive.html
9) Wild salmon and sea trout are being threatened with extinction by thousands of farmed salmon escapees
Escapes from salmon farms are flooding Scottish waters and are threatening wild salmon with extinction on the West coast. In 2000 over half a million farmed fish escaped in Scotland alone (compared to a wild salmon catch of ca. 60,000)! Since 1997 over 1 million salmon have escaped from Scottish salmon farms (http://www.steelheadermag.com/letters24.html) including thousands in Orkney during April (http://www.inchcruin.freeserve.co.uk/main_conservation_salmon%20farming.htm). According to the Scottish Executive many of these escapes occurred from farms infected by Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis (http://www.scottish.parliament.uk/official_report/wa-02/wa0925.htm). Now the salmon farming industry want to expand in the East with a salmon unit on the banks of the famous wild salmon river, the Tweed (http://www.scotlandonsunday.co.uk/index.cfm?id=1161072002). New research to be published soon by Queen's University Belfast and presented earlier this year at a conference in Edinburgh clearly shows that escaped farmed salmon, including hatchery-reared salmon, can drive wild salmon towards extinction.

escapes - over a million salmon lost

"Stream of escaped farm fish raises fears for wild salmon"
"Disease impacts on wild and farmed stocks" and "Escapes from fish farms and potential effects on wild populations"
"Commercial fish farms 'wiping out' wild salmon"
10) Farmed salmon depend upon a food supply that is both depleted and contaminated
The final and fatal flaw of salmon farming is its dependence on wild fish as a food supply. Not only are wild fisheries becoming increasingly depleted but also they are contaminated. This is especially true in the Northern hemisphere where fish feed is eight times more contaminated than fish from the Southern hemisphere. Using a fast diminishing and contaminated wild fish resource as a fuel supply for farmed fish is highly irresponsible from both an environmental and food safety point of view. Considering the maxim 'you are what you eat' it is not surprising therefore that farmed salmon fed on contaminated feed are consequently contaminated with dioxins, PCBs and other chemicals. Contaminated fish feed ought to be labelled as hazardous goods and disposed of safely - certainly not fed to farmed salmon and then sold for human consumption. In the final analysis, salmon farming does make sense from a food safety, environmental or economic point of view. Common sense, however, is not a currency salmon farmers in Scotland are used to dealing in. Boycotting cheap farmed salmon is one way of saving both wild fisheries and sending out the signal to supermarkets that farmed fish are not always an acceptable alternative to wild fish.

Late Old English werre, from an Anglo-Norman French variant of Old French guerre, from a Germanic base shared by worse.
Before the mid 12th century there was no English word exactly meaning war, nor did any of their Germanic relatives have one despite their warlike reputation. The word came over from Old French guerre and is related to worse (Old English). The Guerre itself is of Germanic origin, and originally meant 'confusion, discord'.

Meg Loncharic: Hundreds honor Malone at gala
More than 600 people gathered Jan. 5 at the Bayfront Convention Center to pay tribute to longtime UPMC Hamot Chief Executive John Malone, who will retire from the hospital in February.
Malone started his career at Hamot in 1975 and has served as CEO for 20 years.
The Convention Center was transformed into a lush Latin getaway for the third annual Hamot Health Foundation Gala.
Proceeds from the gala will support the Malone Legacy of Leadership Fund. The fund will provide medical, nursing and midlevel management staff with financial support for education, research and fellowship opportunities to advance their leadership abilities.
Joining in the celebration with Malone and his wife, Karen, were physicians and community leaders, including Greg and Trina Baldwin, Mary Bula, Dr. Peter and Connie Depowski, Dr. Robert and Carol Ferraro, Claire and Bob Foster, Peggy and Garrett Fuhrman, Rick and Noreen Griffith, Don and Marj Inderlied, Bill and Dr. Andrea Jeffress, B. Scott Kern and Amy Cuzzola-Kern, Mary and Howard Lincoln, Dr. Carolynn and Dr. Thomas Masters, Judge Richard and Martha Jean Nygaard, Nick and Karen Scott, Dr. Barry and Carol Stamm, Dr. Dennis and Mary Grace Scully, Dr. Sarah Warner and Brian Rehrig.
Ann Bula, president and chief development officer of Hamot Health Foundation, served as the evening's emcee. Special presentations were made by UPMC Hamot President Jim Fiorenzo and Charles "Boo" Hagerty, UPMC Health Plan vice president of Northern Tier Markets.
Music by Cleveland's the Chosen Few and the beautiful ambience created by event planner Heather McBrier made it an unforgettable experience.
Fairy-tale wedding
Congratulations and best wishes to Erie native Daniel M. Geary and Katy Capito, who rang in the new year as newlyweds. Both 28 and employed in the Chicago suburb of Wheaton, Ill., the couple shared their vows before family and friends on New Year's Eve at the beautiful Warner Theatre.
Vows were exchanged in a candlelight service overlooking the Warner's grand lobby. Multiple silver trees with chandelier crystal ornaments and glass tower table arrangements conveyed a winter wonderland theme.
The ceremony kicked off at 7 p.m. with bagpiper Ian Crane, Geary's bagpipe instructor from Cleveland.
Geary, a former member of the local rock band Tradesmen, chose an Irish kilt for his wedding attire. A cocktail party and reception with music by Mambo immediately followed.
At the stroke of midnight, the groom played "Auld Lang Syne" on his bagpipes. After the ball dropped at Times Square (viewed on a big screen positioned on the balcony for all to see), the bride and groom descended the grand staircase while guests raised their glasses in a Champagne toast.
Geary is the second youngest of Dan and Mary Kay Geary's four children. Dad is "Captain Dan," general manager/director of WMCE radio at Mercyhurst University.
Katy's parents are Pat and Greg Capito, of Erie. Her dad's 38-year career with G.E. has taken the family all over the world. They lived in Hong Kong and numerous other locations across the United States, including Newtown, Conn., where Katy completed high school in 2002.
Katy is a registered nurse, currently working for a private nursing home. Danny is a sales manager in lighting for G.E.
Heads up for Mardi Gras
Event chairwoman Abby Lechner, along with Patty Rich, Nancy Potter, Jim Laughlin, Barbara Ward, Sara Breese, Julia Nene, Matthew Rogers, Barb Haggerty, Denise Mosley and Carolyn Eller are making great strides in the party-planning department.
Mardi Gras, that rollicking, fun-loving Fat Tuesday carnival celebration, is just weeks away. Nobody does it better than in Louisiana, which is why Erie Art Museum's special events committee is bringing New Orleans-style revelry to Erie for one fabulous party.
Plan to indulge in the culture, music, food and fun of New Orleans on Feb. 8, from 7 to 11 p.m., at the museum.
Cajun hors d'oeuvres by Make it Fabulous Catering, d�cor by Allburn Florist and musical entertainment from southern Louisiana by Nathan and the Zydeco Cha Chas will make this a memorable event.
Don your most lavish outfit to win the costume contest, as prizes will be awarded to the best male, female, couple and group. Many people get into the costume part of the celebration, but any type of attire is appropriate.
Tickets, priced at $50 per person, are available at the museum, on its website, www.erieartmuseum.org, or by calling 459-5477.
How hip are you?
A '70s Hippie Party could be just the ticket for a fun-packed midwinter outing with friends or former classmates from that era. The Women's Roundtable of Northwest Pennsylvania came up with the idea to start 2013 with a look back at the good old days -- complete with a best dressed hippie contest.
Enjoy the fun on Friday at the Avalon Hotel. The event starts at 5:30 p.m. with networking, hors d'oeuvres follow at 6:15 p.m., with games and music starting at 7 p.m. Call program director Chris Froess at 881-7790 with your reservations before Tuesday's deadline.
The cost is $30 for members and $35 for the general public. If you're traveling from a distance, you can also stay the night at the Avalon for a discounted rate of $60.
The Women's Roundtable is again seeking women business owners to apply for grants from the Gerry B. Wallerstein Fund. To obtain a grant application, go to the Women's Roundtable website, www.wrterie.org, print and complete the form and mail it to Women's Roundtable, P.O. Box 3922, Erie, PA 16508.
Applications can also be picked up at First Niagara Bank at 2520 W. 26th St. or First Niagara Bank at 1468 West Gore Road or at the Jefferson Education Society, 3207 State St. The deadline for submitting applications is March 1. Grants will be awarded in June.
For more information, visit www.wrterie.org. The Women's Roundtable Inc. is a charitable, educational, social and business networking nonprofit. WRT president-elect is Marsha MacKinnon, chairwoman of the Wallerstein Grant Committee, who will accept the gavel from Marilyn Livosky at an installation dinner in June.

Need To KnowMany trails in the trail system on Canaan Mountain and many intersect the forest road (called Canaan Loop road, or FS13) that is about 13 miles long and surrounds the mountain, with one side adjoining Blackwater Falls State Park, and the other end meeting route 32 on Canaan Heights, making many loop possibilities and different rides.
DescriptionStarting at Canaan Loop Rd (FS13) heading down Fire Trail #3 which is a concentrated shot of Plantation. Left on plantation and all the way to the end where it meets Canaan Loop road. (FS13) This is about 7 miles of the 8 mile Plantation trail. It's loaded with roots, rocks, creeks and mud and a few ups and downs. The ride crosses a few other trails in the system and the only confusing intersection is at Railroad Grade since there is about 30ft where the two trails are kinda the same. But if you want to stay in plantation, stay right (there should be two blue markers on the trees with hand written arrows). This segment ends with the longest and smoothest downhill on the trail which is sweet.
At the end of Plantation Trail, you can pick up Table Rock Trail on the opposite side of FS13. Table Rock Trail is about 1.3 miles long and ends at the most epic overlook in the entire area. The trail has some seriously long rock gardens that are fairly technical. Probably more technical than anything on Plantation trail, but the overlook awaits and it's worth the extra effort. The ride back on that trail is a little easier since it's a slight downhill. From there you can ride Forest Road 13 back to the starting point which has a slightly long climb, or you can take Plantation Trail back, if you have the time.
