Dymo Stamps enables you to print your own postage stamps using a Dymo LabelWriter. Basically, you sign up for a FREE account with Dymo Stamps and you prepay some postage. When you're ready to print some stamps, you tell the software how much the items weigh (or use Dymo's own Postage Scale) and instantly your stamps are printed using your available balance.
A special barcode is printed on 'blanks' which have a special ink. The USPS uses both of these features to detect the legitimacy of your stamps. If you use anything other than GENUINE Dymo Stamps then you could run the risk of your mail being rejected by the postal system, and that would defeat the purpose of using Dymo Stamps to save yourself time, hassle and money.

Finally, we're offering $1.99 Ground Shipping on all orders of $49 or more worth of products (to destinations within the USA) when you enter the promo code 199SHIP in the checkout. Simply enter the promo code and you will see Ground Shipping change to $0.00 for your order.

OverviewA great long ride just outside of Albuquerque that rolls through the Tunnel Canyon, Otero Canyon, Mars Court, Oak Flat and Cedro Peak trail systems with just a little pavement to connect them. There are loads of options to make this ride longer and/or harder, but as it is, this ride could take anywhere from 2.5 hours to 6 or 7 hours to complete. There are also several spots where one could bail onto the many FS Road's that you cross and work your way back to the car more quickly.
You can ride this either way but I don't like to be climbing on the loose eroded stuff in the Cedro Peak area and instead, I start by heading up Tunnel/Otero. While dirt bikes are allowed throughout much of the trail system they seem to mostly stay in the Cedro/Oak Flat areas and as such those trails can be very loose and badly eroded during dry times.
This is a long ride with a fair bit of climbing, even after getting through the "uphill" part and as such you may want to stash a car up at Oak Flat or Mars Court to be able to refill water and restock food.
DescriptionHead up Chamisos Road from the parking and make a right onto the 462 ATV bypass. Then head straight onto the lower end of the Powerline Trail. Follow this through some nice fast banked corners down into and through a wash. As you're ridng up the right side of the wash, keep your eyes peeled for a trail that switchbacks up to your right, take it, it is unsigned and connects up to the Tunnel Canyon trailhead. Follow this trail until you drop down and through a culvert under the road. A quick climb at the end of the trail deposits you on the Tunnel Canyon Trail.
Make a left onto Tunnel Canyon and start climbing. Upon reaching the top, some rock gardens await before the junction with the West Ridge trail. Stay on the Tunnel Canyon trail and make the drop down to Otero Canyon. Several stair step drops are along this section of trail along with a couple of switchbacks and other tight turns and spots.
Once down to the Otero Canyon trail, make a hard right and start climbing, quickly passing the Blue Ribbon trail on your left. Otero Canyon is an awesome downhill run and not half bad going up, you could stop and play on the ledge drops. Once up the second steep rocky climb, roll a short ways up to the DOA boundary, passing the end of the West Ridge trail on your right and coming to the junction with the G Nasty Trail.
Turn left and climb this up to the meadow and the junction with the Blue Ribbon trail, nothing much of note besides the nice singletrack and one stair step in a very steep part of the trail. Once you reach the meadow, make a right onto the Blue Ribbon Trail and immediately tackle a rock garden in the trees. Once through that gradual climbing gets progressively rockier until you come out onto FS Road 106. Make a left on FS Road 106 and pedal along until you come to the Drop In trail on your right.
Roll down the Drop In, being careful to stay left, you'll see signs for the DOA boundary here and there, most notably about 5 in a row shortly after a log roll-over. Hang a left at a prominent trail junction and climb up to a 5? way junction with FS Road 106, another road and the Cajun Pine trail which is on the left just past the main jumble of trails and roads. Follow Cajun Pine, staying right at all trail junctions until you come to a FS Road. Just across the road and a little to the right, pick up Cajun Turkey and follow this to Wild Turkey (this looks like a road but quickly narrows to singletrack) and make a left. Follow this until you reach the Mars Court trailhead.
Pedal out to the pavement and make a left. Ride the road until you come to Hwy 337, make a left and then a right onto Oak Flat Road. Ride up Oak Flat Road until you come to the Oak Flat picnic Area and turn in. Work to the right in the picnic area to pick up the Mahogany trail.
Follow the Mahogany trail through a bunch of intersections until you can drop down to your left onto Pokerchip trail. Follow Pokerchip across FS Road 242 and start to climb loose baby heads, this is where the dirt bike traffic is really high (be careful in corners because of the loose trail surface) though there is some on Mahogany and the first part of Pokerchip as well. When the climb flattens out, look for the Meadow Singletrack trail on your left. Gradual climbing leads to a seat of your pants descent and another short section of FS Road, rocky downhill.
Once you've made it to level ground, ride a short way to Rattlesnake on your left, turn up that but quickly go right onto the Might Mule trail. Follow Might Mule to its end on Road 12 and head right, crossing FS Road 462 and joining the end of the Coyote trail. Descend the Coyote trail past the Coyote Split and make a left on the Coyote-Chamisoso Link trail. Follow this across FS Road 462 and make a right onto the Chamisoso trail which then T's into the Powerline trail. Make a right onto Powerline and pedal back to the ATV Bypass and eventually Chamisoso Road and the trailhead.

09.07.2014 - Help us celebrate Sea Heroes 2014
Do you know someone who is working tirelessly to protect our oceans through education, conservation and action? If so, nominate them for Sea Heroes.
The Sea Heroes program was started in 2011 as a way of supporting and recognizing individuals who were making positive contributions to the marine environment. Sponsored by Oris, the Sea Heroes awards recognise individuals who make a significant impact in the area of ocean and marine-life conservation — every day people who not only make a difference, but also inspire the rest of us with their dedication.
Help us determine the 2014 Sea Heroes by submitting a nomination here until July 31, 2014.
Each individual selected as a Sea Hero will be profiled in Scuba Diving magazine and receive an Oris Aquis Date dive watch. At the end of 2014, the editors will select one of the year's Sea Heroes and award them with Sea Hero of the Year. This individual will be featured in the magazine and awarded $5,000 to further their conservation work, courtesy of Oris.
Want to test your Sea Heroes knowledge? Click the banner below to take our Sea Heroes quiz for a chance to win an Oris baseball cap.
The quiz is open exclusively to MyOris members until July 25th, 2014.

Facing an undefeated St. Mary's-Colgan team on Tuesday, the Seneca boys didn't let records get in their heads and instead used a balanced attack to deliver the first setback of the season for the Panthers with a 66-51 victory at Seneca High School.
The Indians (6-3) won for the second time in a row following the return of senior Chance Smith, and he joined three other Indians scoring in double figures.
Bradley Jumper led the team with 15 points, while Tyrell Hembree and Seth Harris each poured in 14 and Smith netted 10. Elias Roelfsema rattled in seven points and Isaac Gayer tallied six.
A superb defensive effort, especially in the early going, set the stage for an offensive outburst late in the game that helped the Indians put this one away. They led 29-25 at halftime, but the Panthers cut the deficit to 43-42 by the end of the third.
"It was a slow game early on," Indians coach Will King said. "We had some missed shots, but I thought our defense really stepped up and played well, then we hit some shots in the second half. That makes for a good combination, playing defense and hitting shots."
Indeed, they did both, outscoring the Panthers 23-9 in the final period.
"It was another good balanced attack," King said. "I know I say this a lot, but that's why I think this team is a special team — because we have more than one guy that can step up and do things."
Luke Marquardt and Austin Commons led the Panthers with 12 points.
The Indians travel to Galena for a showdown at 6 p.m. Thursday.

With emphasis on *should* yes I think that it should have been fixed
before the release.
OTOH, I understand that there are reasons that it didn't get fixed.
> Obviously, it wasn't fixed before 3.5.0 and unless somebody cares
> enough about it to fix it, it might also go unfixed for KDE 3.5.1.
IMHO, we should try to avoid shipping a new release with any regressions
if possible -- this should always be a goal of QA even though it is very
unlikely that the goal will be achieved. As has been explained before
(by others), regressions are always a serious issue while new features
that don't quite work yet are just a minor issue as long as they can be
turned off.
The reason I ask if there are plans to fix it is that several people
have already told me that it isn't a bug or if it is that it isn't a
serious issue. As I always am, I was surprised by their
presumptuousness and lack of concern. Some of these comments indicate
that it was a deliberate change in the code -- a design decision. If
so, there isn't much point in anyone trying to fix it since all that is
needed is for the person that made the change to change it back. Or,
perhaps it was accidentally introduced when the minor change to the
"Hide Mode" in the KDE Panel KCM was made.

Quick GuideUnderstanding Cancer: Metastasis, Stages of Cancer, Pictures
How will I feel during chemotherapy?
Chemotherapy affects people in different ways. How you feel depends on how healthy you are before treatment, your type of cancer, how advanced it is, the kind of chemotherapy you are getting, and the dose. Doctors and nurses cannot know for certain how you will feel during chemotherapy.
Some people do not feel well right after chemotherapy. The most common side effect is fatigue, feeling exhausted and worn out. You can prepare for fatigue by:
- Asking someone to drive you to and from chemotherapy
- Planning time to rest on the day of and day after chemotherapy
- Getting help with meals and childcare the day of and at least 1 day after chemotherapy
There are many ways you can help manage chemotherapy side effects.
Can I work during chemotherapy?
Many people can work during chemotherapy, as long as they match their schedule to how they feel. Whether or not you can work may depend on what kind of work you do. If your job allows, you may want to see if you can work part-time or work from home on days you do not feel well.
Many employers are required by law to change your work schedule to meet your needs during cancer treatment. Talk with your employer about ways to adjust your work during chemotherapy. You can learn more about these laws by talking with a social worker.
Sometimes your doctor may advise you not to work from a period of time, such as when your immune system is low during chemotherapy.
Can I take over-the-counter and prescription drugs while I get chemotherapy?
This depends on the type of chemotherapy you get and the other types of drugs you plan to take. Take only drugs that are approved by your doctor or nurse. Tell your doctor or nurse about all the over-the-counter and prescription drugs you take, including laxatives, allergy medicines, cold medicines, pain relievers, aspirin, and ibuprofen.
One way to let your doctor or nurse know about these drugs is by bringing in all your pill bottles. Your doctor or nurse needs to know:
- The name of each drug
- The reason you take it
- How much you take
- How often you take it
Talk to your doctor or nurse before you take any over-the-counter or prescription drugs, vitamins, minerals, dietary supplements, or herbs.
Can I take vitamins, minerals, dietary supplements, or herbs while I get chemotherapy?
Some of these products can change how chemotherapy works. For this reason, it is important to tell your doctor or nurse about all the vitamins, minerals, dietary supplements, and herbs that you take before you start chemotherapy. During chemotherapy, talk with your doctor before you take any of these products.

Something tells me that this is going to be the series that defines the Astros' season.
Sure, the Astros didn't look very impressive while splitting four against the lowly Florida Marlins at Dolphin Stadium. But, the Cubs are struggling right now. Kerry Wood and Mark Prior are on the disabled list, and the Astros will throw their top three starters at the Cubs.
It's very possible for the Astros to get a sweep here before heading to beautiful Shea Stadium on Friday for a crucial three-game series against Carlos Beltran's New York Mets.
If the Astros are swept here at Wrigley Field or drop two of three, this road trip might be remembered as the one that ruined the Astros' season.
Nonetheless, my instincts say that the Astros will start their run to the pennant rolling in earnest tonight at Wrigley Field.

Received several e-mails last week from readers wanting to know more on how to go about selling their gold and silver for meltdown, with gold being an all time high. I will try and answer all of these questions in this column.
First of all, when selling your gold and silver, deal with someone that you know is honest and reliable, such as a local jewelry store or a local pawnshop that has been in business for a number of years. Avoid online companies that request you to mail your gold and silver to them in postage paid envelopes they furnish to the seller. Several complaints have been filed against many of these companies in the last year from sellers all around the country. Also, beware of companies that set up temporary shop in your town buying gold, silver, old coins, including antiques. They love dealing with someone that's not aware of what their items are worth.
Letter from one reader
Question: I have several different pieces of 10-karat and 14-karat jewelery that I'm wanting to sell. I contacted a jewelry store in Parkersburg and they told me to bring it in. They told me they weight it by the gram. How can I go about weighing it before I make the trip to Parkersburg? I don't want to be cheated in any way. - H.L., Marietta.
Answer: With gold worth today $1,850 and up an ounce, divide the current price of $1,850 by 31.10. This will tell you the approximate price of gold per ounce. Now take your piece and weigh it. You can weigh it on a bathroom scale. 454 grams or one ounce equals approximately 28.35 grams. Calculate the number of grams. You now know the gold price per gram.
Second, determine the purity of the gold. If it is 24-karat, then it is almost pure gold. So you can use the amount calculated above. If it is 18-karat, it is 75 percent gold; 14-karat is 58.33 percent gold; 10-karat is 41.67 percent gold. Multiply the percentage of gold by the price per gram as calculated above.
Here is a simple calculation.
With gold worth $1,850 and your ring is 14-karat gold and weighs 2 ounces, price of gold per gram $59.48 equals $1,850/31.10.
28.35 (grams is an ounce) x 2 (number of ounces) x 4167 (purity of the gold) = 23.63
Price of gold per gram $59.48 x 23.63 grams and purity of the gold = ring value $1405.51
The buyer will subtract his or her profit from that, which is usually 60 percent to 80 percent. When selling your gold for meltdown be sure to ask the buyer what percent he's charging you. It's also good to contact a couple of buyers before selling outright. Take the highest bidder.

While renewable energy gains momentum, people tend to think that the larger the energy installment, the better. Companies invest in fields of wind turbines and solar panels, and these are shown to the public to demonstrate the infrastructure and technology of which the U.S. is capable. While these large-scale installments definitely have their benefits, small-scale systems may be overlooked!
Small-scale solar has many advantages compared to large-scale, concentrated solar power systems. To differentiate the two types, a small-scale system feeds the direct energy load of a given facility. A large-scale system feeds the energy into a grid, which is then distributed (Read more).
First, location, location, location! Small-scale systems are installed on rooftops and grounds of businesses or homes that are otherwise underutilized. In large-scale solar, the placement of systems covers acres of land, consuming areas that could be used for other construction, agriculture, or wildlife habitats. As these larger systems are often placed in remote locations, there is also a transmission cost. This cost is both in the construction of transmission lines and in the energy lost in the transmission. "According to the EIA, line losses accounted for 6.5% of total electricity generation in 2007" (Read more). Why not build the solar system directly where the energy is needed?
Secondly, installing a small-scale system directly where the need is also allows for all areas of the state to benefit. If a large-scale solar system is constructed in Chicago, will the residents in East St. Louis feel direct benefits? With distributed solar, residents throughout the state can benefit as they install systems locally.
A new study, "Solar Power Generation in the U.S.: Too expensive or a bargain?," looks at the benefits that solar power generation delivers to utilities, ratepayers and taxpayers. This study shows that there is anywhere from 3-10 cents/kWh of hidden value specifically derived from distributed solar generation. This is generally due to reduced distribution energy losses, reduced distribution capacity wear, and enhanced grid stability (Read more).
But these benefits are just the tip of the iceberg! Join ISEA for the 2011 Illinois Solar Tour on October 1st to visit some local homes and businesses with small-scale systems and learn more. The Illinois Solar Tour is a FREE self-guided event that demonstrates how Illinois homes and businesses are using solar, wind, geothermal, passive solar design, and energy efficiency to be energy independent. Check out the official Solar Tour site and register!
When asking Chicago residents why they have not invested in solar for their homes or businesses, what is a common response? "Have you seen how much snow we get 6 months out of the year?" The idea that snow detracts from solar energy production is a common one. With the right solar installation techniques, though, it is not a valid reason to halt solar investment in chillier states.
Bill Marion, principal scientist in the PV performance and reliability lab and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in Golden, CO, studied the effects of snow on PV system performance. Looking at Boulder, CO and Middleton, WI, he did find that PV output can reach zero when snow is piled on a flat roof.
What is the solution? If the roof is not tilted, Marion suggests that a ground-mount system is ideal. Preferably, one with a good tilt angle and a significant gap between the bottom of the module and the ground to give snow a generous deposition depth as it slides off the glass. Marion plans to follow snow's impact on PV output this winter as well, in order to create guidelines on how to mount modules to maximize the amount of snow fall-off.
With the issue of snow covered, what about the belief that Chicago is too cold and cloudy for efficient solar energy? In reality Midwest states do experience a good amount of sun.
"Michigan has an average of 4.2 hours of peak sunlight per day each year, according to Mark Hagerty, President and Founder of Michigan Solar Solutions. 'Florida, the Sunshine State only has a little over five hours. Interestingly, Germany leads the world in the percentage of electricity generated by solar, but has less than four hours of peak sunlight a day,' says Hagerty."
Additionally, solar panels are actually more efficient in cooler temperatures than in hot ones (Read more here).
So what is your excuse for not investing in solar energy? If you want to see local solar in action, join the Illinois Solar Energy Association's 2011 Solar Tour! The Tour is a free public event to demonstrate how home and business owners are utilizing solar, wind, geothermal, passive solar design, and energy efficiency to reduce their dependence on fossil fuels and be energy independent. Stay updates on the 2011 Solar Tour and other ISEA events through our Facebook and Twitter pages.
Solar installations keep getting more and more affordable! According to a report from Ernst and Young, the price of solar panels could fall to as low as $1 by 2013. This is $0.50 less than the current cost, which means solar energy could be half as expensive in just two years!
In addition to drops in prices, you can also greatly reduce the amount of time you spend researching solar installers, panels, etc. A new business has formed: solar energy brokering! It was only a matter of time before the need for these middle men was recognized. Unfortunately, this broker process is not available yet in Illinois.
"A solar broker makes the whole process easier, operating like independent insurance agents who educate customers about coverages and help them to identify their particular needs. Solar brokers can also assist with obtaining rebates and incentives. The solar broker acting as an independent agent is an alternative to a direct-sell company that markets and sells directly to the end-customer." While the consumer should always remain knowledgeable about renewable energy and installations, having one main contact to guide you through the process could relieve some headaches.
Another option is to lease solar panels! Yes, this is another new business venture, in which homeowners are able to lease rooftop panels undefined some with no upfront costs undefined and pay only for the power produced. At least four large California-based companies offer such leases, in which they install, maintain and continue to own the panels. One company, SunRun, headquartered in San Francisco, doubled its number of leases undefined to 10,000 undefined in one year and expects to add 12,000 new ones this year. Unfortunately, this leasing option is only offered in a few cities, where there are financial incentives and high utility rates. As solar energy expands, though, we can expect to see this spread to Illinois.
With new solar business ideas emerging, and a decrease in solar panel prices, what is stopping you from investing in solar? If you want to learn more about solar power for your home or business, check out one of ISEA's courses! Be sure to stay up-to-date on this growing renewable energy market; follow us on Facebook and Twitter!
What is stopping many Americans from investing in distributed solar power? The price. Why invest in an installation when the end product will not produce a cheaper form of energy than the average energy grid? Avoiding the numerous environmental and social reasons, this is a major concern for Americans. According to a recent study, though, over 40 million Americans in the sixteen largest metropolitan areas of the U.S. could reach or even beat grid prices with solar energy!
The study looks at three different rate design styles, time-of-use pricing, tiered pricing and off-peak flat rate (take a look at the chart here). In order for distributed solar power to reach grid parity, it is necessary to offer time-of-use pricing. There also must incentives in place, "including federal accelerated depreciation (for commercially-owned systems) as well as state and utility incentive programs. These programs substitute taxpayer dollars for ratepayer ones, making the cost of solar to the grid lower."
The rate design is extremely important in regards to consumer behavior. As Rob Miller of Genability points out, the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory released a report in April 2010 analyzing the impact of rate design and net metering on bill savings for distributed PV in California. This report emphasizes the belief that rate design affects which form of energy people choose. Net metering also plays a vital role.
ISEA discussed net metering earlier in more detail, and raising the net metering cap from 1-2 MW is on ISEA's 2011 policy goals. Fortunately, HB 1913, which raises the retail net metering limit for solar and wind power from 40 kW to 2 MW AC and increases the peak limit from 1% to 5%, has passed the House Public Utilities Committee and is now in debate! This means that Illinois is on the right track to grid parity.
With incentives in place and improvements in net metering, what else is needed? Rate design. We need a consistent, reliable rate design that will support renewable energy. As grid parity is becoming more reachable and installation prices continue to drop, solar distribution is becoming a real option for many Americans!
What other outreach or policy implementations do we need in order for Illinoisans to consider solar energy as a viable option? We want to hear from you! Join the discussion on our LinkedIn page.

Talking Food Safety in Minneapolis
It's not every day that I have a chance to see first-hand what companies are doing to strengthen their food safety preventive practices, but that's just what happened on a recent trip to Minneapolis. The facility tour we took is part of FDA's continuing effort to hear from all stakeholders on the best ways for us to implement the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA).
I was joined by several FDA colleagues working hard on implementing the new food safety law, as well as the commissioner and assistant commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Agriculture, the department's director of the division of dairy and food inspection, and the chief science officer of the Grocery Manufacturers Association.
We met with company executives, plant and shift managers, and those responsible for the safety of our food on a day-to-day basis. A key take away message from our interactions: food safety is a journey that requires sustained leadership and commitment.
We learned about how individual companies have evolved their food safety programs over the past few years. We heard about what works and what challenges they face. We looked at how they verify their suppliers are providing safe products, when and how they conduct environmental monitoring, and how they train employees. All of these efforts are important in preventive control programs. The companies we visited had a lot of experience with preventive controls and are continually improving their systems. The significance of FSMA is that, now, preventive controls will be the norm across the industry.
In two days, we visited Cargill Kitchen Solutions, a marketer of processed liquid and cooked egg products; a Land-O-Lakes feed mill that manufactures feed for a variety of different animal species; a General Mills plant that produces baked goods; Buddy's Kitchen, a smaller enterprise that prepares ready-to-eat entrees and sandwiches; and a Malt-O-Meal plant that manufactures dry cereal. In the evening we joined a consortium of Minnesota industry leaders and state representatives for a lively dinner that provided additional opportunity for us to hear thoughts on FSMA and food safety.
We saw on our visit to Minnesota the kind of leadership and management commitment to food safety that is the essential foundation for success in providing consumers the safest possible food supply.

Update on Retrospective Review of FDA Regulations
If you've been following this blog you know that earlier this year, President Obama issued Executive Order (EO) 13563 and outlined his plan to create a 21st-century regulatory system that is simpler and smarter and that protects the health and safety of the American people in a pragmatic and cost-effective way. One of the goals of EO 13563 is to target rules already on the books and revise regulations that are out-of-date, unnecessary, excessively burdensome, or in conflict with other rules.
On June 3, 2011, we announced, as part of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) retrospective review plan, that the first of our regulations to be reviewed under this EO would be the "Bar Code Rule." You can see the HHS plan in its entirety at http://www.hhs.gov/open/execorders/13563/index.html. The Bar Code regulation, which was finalized in 2004, requires certain human drugs and biological products to have a linear bar code on the label so health care professionals can use bar code scanning equipment to verify that the right drug (in the right dose and route of administration) is being given to the right patient at the right time.
In the seven years since this regulation was issued, there have been advances in alternative technologies. In addition, it has become increasingly clear from industry, health care providers, and other FDA initiatives, that certain FDA-regulated products present unique bar coding concerns. For example, the Agency has since learned that certain vaccines present unique challenges in the bar coding context, particularly with respect to compliance with recordkeeping and mandatory adverse event reporting requirements that are specific to the administration of childhood vaccines.
We are pleased to announce that today FDA issued a Federal Register notice seeking public input on the Bar Code rule. You can see this notice at http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2011-10-26/pdf/2011-27657.pdf. We are requesting comments and supporting information on Bar code labeling standards for drugs and biological products and the identification of current alternative technologies for use by industry and others.
To facilitate this discussion with you, in the notice we have included some questions for you to consider. These questions, which are not meant to be exhaustive, are provided to stimulate public comments that will help us evaluate the Bar Code rule and the accommodation of alternative technologies to the linear bar code requirement. You are encouraged to address these and/or other related questions, so please review the notice at http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2011-10-26/pdf/2011-27657.pdf and submit your comments to our docket. We look forward to hearing your thoughts and ideas.
Stay tuned as we continue reviewing our regulations at FDA.

Fulfilling the Promise of the Food Safety Modernization Act: The Importance of Stakeholder Engagement
Recently, I had the good fortune to fill in for an FDA colleague on a panel entitled, "Assuring the Safety of Imported Food" at the National Food Policy Conference, which is organized by the Consumer Federation of America.
Participants at the conference included a broad spectrum of activists, public officials, nutrition professionals, farm and food industry representatives, and scientists who are interested in agriculture, food and nutrition policy. The Food and Drug Administration Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) was one of the key areas of focus at the conference.
Even though I was called from the audience to participate unexpectedly in the panel, I hoped my role as Vice-Chair of FDA's FSMA Imports Implementation Team would stand me in good stead. Fortunately, the other panelists spoke first, which gave me the chance to organize my thoughts.
My fellow panelists, Caroline Smith DeWaal, from the Center for Science in the Public Interest, Mike Robach, from Cargill, and Eduardo Santos from Allen F. Johnson and Associates spoke eloquently on the challenges and opportunities that the imports provisions of FSMA represent to consumers, industry, and other countries. They identified various key issues associated with FSMA implementation including the costs associated with implementation, training, capacity building in exporting countries, and ensuring both accountability and fairness.
In addition to emphasizing some of the main features of the FSMA imports provision, I discussed how FDA is approaching the task of developing over 50 deliverables mandated by FSMA, our outreach strategy, the importance of making sure our actions are consistent with our WTO obligations, and the overarching need for stakeholder involvement.
The main message I hoped to leave with the audience was the importance of their role as stakeholders in providing information, practical scenarios, and data as we proceed with FSMA implementation. FDA's significant and ongoing effort at early engagement via public meetings has already provided FDA with many useful insights. I encouraged stakeholders to use the "notice and comment" process to continue to provide information and feedback in response to upcoming proposed regulations.
The task before us is huge. Currently, there are over 160 countries exporting hundreds of thousands of FDA regulated food products to the U.S. How do we collectively assure safety? How do the import provisions consider domestic provisions? FSMA provides the framework to harness leading business global food safety practices, consumer expectations and importer practicalities, with agency standards and oversight. We have a long way to go before we fully implement FSMA, but we have the platform on which to build and I am confident that we are up to the task at hand.
During the conference, Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsac, CDC Director Thomas Frieden, and FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg highlighted the work of their respective agencies in addressing nutrition and food safety issues. They each echoed the importance of food safety and the public imperative for stakeholders to work together to optimize the safety and nutritional adequacy of our food supply.
Dr. Hamburg started her speech with, "Will Rogers liked to say that most political promises are about as solid as applesauce… (and FDA regulates applesauce!) But some promises are just too important not to keep… like the promise that our food supply will be safe for every American."
Each of us has a stake in bringing this promise to life. The National Food Policy Forum was a terrific opportunity to be inspired, to strengthen our resolve, and to keep the stakeholder momentum moving ever forward.

FDA's New Outbreak Director: Learning from Outbreaks is the Key
The best way to get into the Gulf of Maine in August is to jump feet first. So, "jump feet first" is what I did this week on my first day as chief medical officer and director of outbreaks for the FDA Coordinated Outbreak Response and Evaluation (CORE) Network.
CORE, with a dedicated multi-disciplinary staff, is meant to provide a streamlined, integrated approach to how FDA not only responds to human and animal foodborne illness outbreaks, but how we improve surveillance and post-response efforts, to apply lessons learned and prevent future outbreaks. When an outbreak happens, the CORE staff will decide the strategy of FDA's response, working closely with the FDA field staff, and coordinate with other key federal, state and local food safety agencies.
After 28 years as Maine's state epidemiologist, the management of outbreaks is vital to me, but even more important is learning from them in order to prevent or minimize future outbreaks. That's what public health's emphasis on preventive medicine is all about.
So, when asked what I wanted to do on my first day, I said hear firsthand from some of our partners, both inside FDA and outside.
I was able to briefly introduce myself to a crucial component of the CORE Network – the FDA Regional and District offices, during one of their regular weekly conference calls. CORE is already coordinating and will continue to work closely with the Districts during outbreak response and related activities, building on the best of what FDA has done in the past, and finding ways together to improve and streamline our efforts going forward.
I was also able to visit with the director of the Office of Crisis Management for the Agency, which will continue to play the lead role in responding to natural disasters and other incidents. I toured the Emergency Operations Center and talked with the director and staff to assure them that CORE will continue to work closely with this crucial office in the future.
Key consumer groups, including two organizations representing foodborne illness victims and their families, also shared their insights with me and my FDA colleagues. Two of the members of these groups spoke movingly of the deaths of their children from contaminated food and how they vowed to use their experiences to improve food safety for all American families.
As a mother of four children, I listened and tried to imagine the grief they have experienced. Having investigated numerous foodborne outbreaks at the State level, I have experienced the frustration of being unable to identify the "culprit"; or, when successful, wondering how food contamination could ever have occurred in this modern world; and wishing that the "lessons learned" from the outbreak could have been translated into effective preventive recommendations and policy. After hearing their stories, the "why" of food safety has never been clearer for me.
This commitment to food safety was also the theme of a call with industry representatives who spoke of the critical knowledge they can bring to bear in times of a foodborne illness outbreak.
For instance, two of the large trade associations representing the produce industry spoke about the wealth of information they have on produce and how they want to make certain FDA has access to and is able use this valuable data they have before, during and after an outbreak.
A large group representing retailers echoed this commitment to sharing information throughout our conversation, as well as making certain the industry's "knowledge factor" is used in outbreak response. We all reiterated the importance "of learning in retrospect" from outbreaks, and I shared with them that this was a lesson I had learned early on in my work in preventive medicine.
Meetings with new colleagues at FDA and on the calls with some of our stakeholders also gave me an opportunity to reflect on the historic shift taking place in food safety. The FDA Food Safety Modernization Act squarely puts in place the public health principle of prevention as the foundation of all our food safety efforts.
It's an historic shift not only for those of us in government, but also for industry. And prevention is key for all of us, as Commissioner Hamburg and I agreed when I had the opportunity to chat with her the next morning. It is especially important in today's world, where our food supply is global as well as local.
Bracing and exhilarating would be my words for that first day – just like that Gulf of Maine. And it's what I was hoping for.

New Transparency Report Focuses on Enforcement Data
Today, FDA is releasing 8 new draft proposals in a report entitled "Food and Drug Administration Transparency Initiative: Draft Proposals for Public Comment to Increase Transparency By Promoting Greater Access to the Agency's Compliance and Enforcement Data."
These draft proposals are focused on making FDA's compliance and enforcement data more accessible and user-friendly, and they are part of our ongoing efforts to increase the transparency of FDA's operations and decision-making.
In developing these draft proposals, FDA met with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of Labor (DOL), both of which have well-developed and well-regarded enforcement data websites (www.epa-echo.gov and http://ogesdw.dol.gov, respectively). At these meetings, EPA and DOL shared their insights to help us learn from, and build upon, their experiences. Like FDA, EPA and DOL recognize that transparency can drive good behavior and promote regulatory compliance.
We invite the public to comment on FDA's draft proposals, and to review the Agency's progress in implementing other action items and draft proposals related to the Transparency Initiative at:

FDA Tells Farmers: We need to learn from you
Last week, farmers from across the North and South forks of Suffolk county Long Island showed a group of us from the U.S. Departments of Agriculture and Health and Human Services, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets the incredible diversity of their farms and the challenges FDA faces in writing a "produce safety" rule.
Bob Nolan, who farms 30 acres with his son and uncle, invited us because he heard that we had walked the rows of other fresh fruit and vegetable farms across the country. In fact, this was the 14th state we visited in the last year or so. We have seen the orchards of Oregon, the vast vegetable fields of California, Amish farms in Ohio, irrigation-dependent produce operations in Texas, vegetable farms in Delaware, North Carolina family farms, and Florida tomato fields to name just a few.
And each time, we have come away with new insights from the farmers and their families about how they are already addressing produce safety concerns, what they expect from an FDA rule, and the challenges of maintaining their way of life.
Our Long Island tour was a microcosm of the diversity we have seen across the country. Organized by Cornell extension agent Sandy Menasha and Long Island Farm Bureau executive director Joe Gergela, the tour of seven farms ranged from small to large, conventional to organic, first-generation farmer to twelfth generation.
Let's face it, the first question a federal official gets asked on a farm is as blunt as the summer day is long: Why are you here? Mike Taylor, the FDA deputy commissioner for foods, has a pretty good answer: If we're going to get this produce safety rule right, we need to learn from you.
That's it in a nutshell. While FDA and its colleagues at USDA bring to the table scientific and public health expertise, we all know that farms are very much the real world of soil, air and water open to the elements 24/7 and worked by humans and animals. Farmers can inform us from their experience and practices.
Just see the different perspectives shared with us last week: the first-generation organic farm of the Garden of Eve; the 225-acre Ed Zilnicki and Sons' potato farm; Nolan's 30-acre Deer Farms devoted to leafy greens; the "agritainment" and "u-pick" farms like Hank's Pumpkin Town, Harbes' Family Farm, and the Milk Pail; and the farm stand run by Jim and Jennifer Pike.
And we got to hear loud and clear what the farmers expect from the FDA. "I can't hire a food safety guy. I am the food safety guy," Bob Nolan said. Hank Kraszewski wants the produce safety rule to be "crystal clear." Tell farmers straight out, "What do I have to do," he said. Record-keeping can't become burdensome for small farmers like themselves, Eve Kaplan-Walbrecht and Jim Pike told us.
Farmers are also thirsty to learn more. Horse manure is a time-honored soil amendment for the sandy fields of Long Island. How can they apply it safely, they want to know.
And, while we heard that while farmers get it about food safety, they also want us to get it about the economic realities they face. Several had struggled in the '90s when wholesale potato farming became less profitable and they moved to other commodities and on-farm retail sales.
Successful produce safety is possible if farmers and food safety officials work together, listening to each other and learning from each other.
Sharon Natanblut, Senior Advisor to the Deputy Commissioner for Foods, FDA
Fostering Innovation Through Better Science
Science is the backbone of everything we do at FDA. Which is why today's release of the agency's Strategic Plan for Regulatory Science is a significant next step in the agency's Regulatory Science Initiative, originally announced in October, 2010. We are releasing the plan along with a podcast and a consumer article to make it easier for everyone to join this conversation about regulatory science and understand what this plan really means.
"As new discoveries yield increasingly complex products," says FDA Commissioner Margaret A. Hamburg, M.D. "this strategic plan ensures that our experts are equipped to make science-based decisions resulting in sound regulatory policy. It positions us to foster innovation through better science without compromising our high safety standard."
This plan calls for a sweeping modernization of the science used in developing and evaluating products critical to the nation's health, economy and security. It recognizes the important role the agency must play in fostering innovations in the marketplace today to address the public health challenges of tomorrow.
All around us we see evidence that new technologies are creating unprecedented opportunities to prevent and cure disease as well as to grow our high tech economy. As my colleague and FDA's Chief Scientist Dr. Jesse Goodman says: "This plan will help turn advances in science into products that benefit people, and help FDA assure that happens more quickly and safely. It is win-win-win, because it will help the public, the agency and developers of new products."
This plan signals clearly the agency's intent to work collaboratively with our colleagues in academia and industry to enhance the process for developing and evaluating promising new products and novel materials emerging from fields such as cell therapies, tissue engineering, genomics and personalized medicine, and through use of advanced computing and information technology.
As we move forward, we welcome ideas and comments. We are inviting our partners, domestic and international, and the public to join the conversation as we take the steps necessary to advance and target the best regulatory science to help meet the nation's highest public health priorities and medical needs.
Thank you.

Kivra Bids to Replace Sweden's Printed Mail
A Swedish startup will allow users to receive, manage and store what would have been printed documents in a secure mailbox in their smartphones, challenging the postal service.
Swedish entrepreneur Robert Wahlström, former partner and head of business development of online payment solutions company Klarna, pulled in more than $2 million in angel funding for Kivra last November, reports The Next Web.
Kivra lets users create a digital mail box for important documents. The aim is to keep the documents secure, manage them more easily and of course decrease the impact that using paper has on the environment.
It works by convincing others to change their ways and provide digital or interactive versions of the paper documents you more regularly get in the post.
The company also encourages other firms and organisations to change they way they distribute paper documents. An interactive newsletter or an invoice that has links to work completed is much more useful and with digital copies, there's no need to have a dusty filing cabinet to fill with each new arrival.
According to Kivra, a billion windowed envelopes are distributed around Sweden every year. It hopes to eliminate a large percentage of them.

All Sorts of Weird Stuff offers news and information about George R.R. Martin, in particular about his A Song of Ice and Fire series.
"When I was young, I read all sorts of stuff. One week it would be Lovecraft, the next Vance. It was all imaginative literature, or as my dad called it 'Weird Stuff.' It was all 'Weird Stuff.'"
George R.R. Martin
New to the series? Read our spoiler-free review of A Game of Thrones.
Read our Privacy Policy.
GRRM has given an update on the current state of A Dance with Dragons (US, UK), noting he's finished two more short chapters (with more on the way), and that the book has now grown to just over 1600 manuscript pages. By my estimate, this means the book would—with standard font and gutters—be over 1,000 pages in length, easily making it the longest book in the series. How many more chapters left? We're not sure, but given that he hears the biplanes approaching "Kong", it's looking good.
In comments, he notes a few other things, such as emphasizing the fact that most of the chapters of the manuscript are already fully edited, so it's only the new chapters that will need work from his editors, and that the fact is that publishers can turn around a book very quickly indeed if they a mind to do it (and in this case, they do), so the July 12 date remains quite firm. Until then, here's a blog post at Suvudu from his U.S. editor, Anne Groell, holding the completed-to-date manuscript. Now, Anne's not tall, by any means, but that should give a pretty good idea of just how many pages there are in the book.
The Westeros network consists of several different sites, including a forum and a wiki, for all your A Song of Ice and Fire needs.

Controversy is no stranger to state Supreme Court Justice Richard Sanders.
In 15 years on the state's highest court, he has written more dissenting opinions than majority opinions. His strong libertarian streak has often made him a lone dissenter, and frequently in defense of the rights of violent criminals.
That's made him a frequent target of prosecutors and police, who argue he blatantly overlooks the rights of victims.
Sanders makes no apologies for following his libertarian compass, and says individual rights are a constitutional principle that mustn't be compromised.
Sanders brings a healthy perspective to the nine-member court, one that no doubt has made his collegues think harder and longer at times about important points. It's a perspective worth keeping. The court should reflect a range of legitimate legal approaches.
We endorse Sanders' re-election bid.
It's a close call, however. Sanders' challenger, Bainbridge Island attorney Charlie Wiggins, is a highly qualified candidate who we believe would serve well if elected. He has pertinent judicial experience, having been appointed to the state Court of Appeals, where he served for several months before losing at the polls. He currently serves as a Superior Court substitute judge.
He has worked in private practice for 33 years, and served as a disciplinary hearing officer for the state Bar Association.
Wiggins is highly critical of Sanders' record, charging that the "extreme pattern" of Sanders' dissents show he isn't impartial, but that he frequently begins with a result in mind that fits his ideology, then rationalizes his way to a decision.
Sanders counters that if that's true, it's true of everyone on the court at times. He says that he had changed his position in the past after doing further research.
"The goal here," he says, "is to recognize and protect people's rights, and I'm going to do that whether my colleagues agree or not."

CSM Notes
NCOs : Leaders in Training
By Command Sgt. Maj. Sterling T. McCormick
Our noncommissioned officers must continue to lead the way in training our soldiers. This challenge is mostly on the shoulders of the NCOs because we, in most instances, are the first-line leaders of soldiers. They depend on us to look out for their welfare. An important factor in taking care of our soldiers is to help them develop in a way which allows them to successfully perform the unit's mission and to survive in any environment. Some of our missions are performed at fixed sites; this is no excuse to ignore our training responsibilities. In fact, we must take on the challenge to train soldiers in a variety of environments and situations.
We must continue to be successful and innovative in training our shift workers and those who perform nontraditional technical tasks. Remember, we still have an obligation to prepare soldiers to perform in any possible assignment.
We need the right mix of technical and tactical training in our units. We cannot degrade one at the expense of the other. This strategy takes lots of coordination and initiative by all who are involved. The emphasis, resources and time must be made available by the leader chain to make it effective.
We must also have NCO and soldier input at our training meetings. Having the right people and input during the planning phase are important to the success of the training conducted. The planning should be done weeks in advance to ensure understanding and have the commitment of the leader chain to ensure training happens.
There are also plenty of training opportunities for our soldiers within INSCOM. We should take advantage of our REDTRAIN opportunities, functional courses, cryptologic courses, training exercises, language training, etc. In the past, we have had very good success with NCO led training. It works, so let's make all training work for our soldiers and our units.
Finally, I extend a heartfelt welcome to Brig. Gen. John D. Thomas Jr. and his lovely wife, Verdun, to the INSCOM family. Your added strength will continue to make INSCOM a great Army team.
Command Sgt. Maj. McCormick is the INSCOM command sergeant major headquartered at Fort Belvoir, Va.

I have started a crave within myself…the crave of making raw ice creams! So this sent me to the Internet to see what exciting recipes I may find.
In the cooked world of recipes there are hundreds of unique and some not so unique recipes. Some made my mouth water, some make my lips pucker and some well, just didn't quite do it for me.
But the beauty of being able to create recipes is that you are able to give your taste buds and desires permission to play. So I decided to use this recipe post as a looking eye-glass into my thought process on how to convert an existing recipe over to your own. First we need to look over the cooked / processed version… we will be making the raw version.
Cooked Version Ingredients:
Now we need to bread it down… To convert this recipe to raw we need to look at the roll of the ingredients. The fruit part is easy to convert. Strawberry for strawberry. The milk and 1/2 & 1/2 offer two things to the recipe; a form of fat and a creaminess and liquid of course.
In the raw world we would look to nuts or young coconuts to use as a replacement often times. There are many other food items that replace fats and creaminess such as avocados but we need to think of what would hold up nicely to being frozen or what color they will lend a recipe, so therefor nuts or coconut are our number one choice.
Nut butters can work great in recipes as well. Sugar is easy to convert over to raw. There are many alternatives, we just have to decide what flavor we want to impart. Because we want a creamy ice cream and we are not heating it to break down any sugar granules I recommend a liquid sweetener or a sweetener that may come in a fine powder form such as lucuma.
Lets break them down a little bit:
Ok, we have figured out the fruit, the fat, the creaminess and the sweetener, all that remains are the "spices".
Cooked Version now converted to a Raw Version:
Aimee Sue:
I absolutely love this recipe and make it at least three times a week. I made the mistake, at first, of using the almond milk I make for granola with two cups of water and while it's good it's not as good. When I use 1 1/2 cups of water, 3 dates, the vanilla it's spectacular. Another problem I had at first and it was either too much water or I need two days b/w to get my freezer unit really cold? The ice cream didn't freeze appropriately. One trick I learned was when the mixture goes in the freezer I put it in my stainless steal bowl and it gets done a little faster as I can't wait to eat it. I'm going to try some of your other ice cream recipes but can't get enough of this. Thank you so much.

January 13th, 2014 - 11:44am
(Port Angeles) The resignation letter of the former associate executive director of the Olympic Medical Center Foundation has caused a stir in local philanthropic circles.
Sara Maloney stepped down from her job six months ago citing issues she sees with efficiencies in how the foundation raises money.
The non-profit foundation, raises funds for the Olympic Medical Center. Foundation officials say they've donated more than $2.1 million to the medical center since 2006.
But Maloney wrote in her letter she thinks the total should be greater.
She says the foundation leadership exhibits an apparent disregard for excessive overhead expenses -- particularly personnel costs. She is also concerned money earmarked for certain causes may have been used to offset costs of other fundraising efforts.
Foundation officials, including board president and former Port Angeles mayor Karen Rogers, say Maloney's concerns are overblown.
Rogers tells the Sequim Gazette she has nevertheless taken substantial steps in recent months to restructure the foundation's bylaws, policies and payroll.
Foundation executive director Bruce Skinner says he has cut payroll costs.

T 49/83 (OJ 1984, 112) first defined the term "plant varieties" as a multiplicity of plants which were largely the same in their characteristics and remained the same within specific tolerances after every propagation cycle. Following on from this, the board in T 320/87 (OJ 1990, 71) concluded that hybrid seed and plants, lacking stability in some trait of the whole generation population, could not be classified as plant varieties within the meaning of Art. 53(b) EPC 1973. In this regard, see also T 788/07. In T 356/93 (OJ 1995, 545). The board held that plant cells as such, which with modern technology can be cultured much like bacteria and yeasts, could not be considered to fall under the definition of a plant or of a plant variety. This was confirmed by G 1/98, which stated that plant cells should be treated like microorganisms.
The term 'plant variety' is defined in R. 26(4) EPC in the same way as in Directive 98/44/EC on the legal protection of biotechnological inventions, namely as "any plant grouping within a single botanical taxon of the lowest known rank, which grouping, irrespective of whether the conditions for the grant of a plant variety are fully met, can be:
(a) defined by the expression of the characteristics that results from a given genotype or combination of genotypes,
(b) distinguished from any other plant grouping by the expression of at least one of the said characteristics, and
(c) considered as a unit with regard to its suitability for being propagated unchanged."
The words "the expression of the characteristics that results from a given genotype or combination of genotypes" used in R. 26(4)(a) EPC refer to the entire constitution of a plant or a set of genetic information. In contrast, a plant defined by single recombinant DNA sequences is not an individual plant grouping to which an entire constitution can be attributed within the above meaning. A plant defined in this way is not a concrete living being or grouping of concrete living beings but an abstract and open definition embracing an indefinite number of individual entities defined by a part of its genotype or by a property bestowed on it by that part (G 1/98, T 189/09, T 1242/06 of 31 May 2012).
