How Much Should We Involve Genetic and Environmental Factors in the Risk Assessment of Mycotoxins in Humans?
AbstractDespite consented efforts in prevention, mycotoxins remain a problem of human health concern in several parts of the world including developed countries. Within the same range of toxins concentrations in the blood some people develop a disease while others do not. Could this inequality in front of mycotoxins effects be explained by environment factors and/or genetic predisposition? Among recent advances in environmental health research Correlation between chronic diseases and mycotoxins in humans deserves attention through several questions: Are genetic factors involved in disease causation of mycotoxins? How much are these factors currently taken into account for mycotoxins risk assessment and how much should we involve them? Answers are still to come. Genetic and environment factors deserve therefore more attention when dealing with regulatory limits, since among the general population, those who are at risk and will develop specific diseases are likely those bearing genetic predispositions. We have addressed these questions for the specific case of ochratoxin A in humans by investigating in Tunisia, county of Jelma, in four rural families forming a household of 21 persons all exposed to ochratoxin A in diet. Our results confirm that ochratoxin A induces chronic tubular nephropathy in humans and mainly point at those having the HLA haplotype A3, B27/35, DR7 to be more sensitive to the disease for quantitatively similar or lower exposure. Persons with such haplotype were found to bear chronic interstitial nephropathy with tubular karyomegalic cells while others were apparently healthy. Godin et al. (1996) in France have also found in sibling (a sister and her brother from urban area) that have similar HLA haplotype B35-patern, OTA-related renal tubulopathy with mild proteinuria including β2-microglobulinuria. Several mechanisms are discussed that could be put ahead to explain how the HLA haplotype could lead to tubular cells lyses and renal failure. In the mean time it is urgent to search for mass screening biomarkers for mycotoxins in humans and related genetic factors to set-up more appropriate regulation.

CLOTHES CALL: Longchamp's next campaign shines the spotlight on the leather goods house's burgeoning women's ready-to-wear line – along with those covetable bags. Shot in Los Angeles by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggot, the striking photo series features Kate Moss and Sasha Pivovarova against a retro green wall dressed in pieces from its 12-piece spring collection. Focused on outerwear, the line ranges from a silk and cotton blouse to a sporty linen trench in the house's iconic LM horse print. "The ideas is to create key items you can mix with everything," said Sophie Delafontaine, Longchamps' artistic director. Codes from the house's leather goods lines surface across the designs, distributed in Longchamp's 100 doors worldwide, such as bamboo toggles and leather trims.
While some previous campaigns have shown Moss in her birthday suit, with only a large Longchamp bag for modesty, Longchamp's spring take resembles classic fashion editorial. "Today, handbags have become so much a part of the fashion world," said managing director Jean Cassegrain, "It's important we have a line of ready-to-wear to express our fashion personality." He noted, however, that clothing represents less than 5 percent of its business. The campaign breaks in a range of February glossies, with no change in budgets versus the first half of 2007. "We are lucky to be a fully family-owned business. When we talk of a timeline it's not in terms of the next quarter, but [rather] a long-term view," said Cassegrain. Coming in January is a "making of" movie about the campaign for the Longchamp Web site, which receives more than 300,000 monthly hits.

Jamie Makes Some Dimonade
J.P. Morgan Chase CEO James Dimon has a knack for turning lemons into lemonade.
Little more than a year ago, J.P. Morgan was still in the thick of the "London whale" trading debacle that would cost the bank upward of $6 billion. Shortly after reporting second-quarter 2012 results and being called before Congress, Mr. Dimon signaled his confidence by buying 500,000 shares of stock.
That has worked well. Mr. Dimon purchased the stock at an average price of $34.22 a share. Now, with the stock trading at about $56, Mr. Dimon is sitting on an unrealized gain of about $11 million.
And it isn't the first time that Mr. Dimon has done well backing the bank he heads. Before last year's share purchase, Mr. Dimon had last gone into the open market to buy shares in January 2009, close to a financial-crisis nadir for U.S. financial stocks. He purchased 500,000 shares at an average price of $22.93. His unrealized gain on that purchase is now about $16.5 million. Sometimes it pays to put your money where your mouth is.

The first time I tried counselling was at the end of my first year of uni. Some difficult stuff had happened including the breakdown of a not-very-nice relationship, and I decided it was time to see about putting some things to rest. So I took a deep breath, and did something I find very difficult to do – asked for help I knew I needed. I went to student services at uni and asked them to sign me up for counselling.
I had to wait a little while, but eventually I was offered an appointment. I was given a male counsellor, which wasn't ideal especially given the nature of some of the things I wanted to discuss, but I decided to give it a go and see how things went.
I went to my first appointment… and didn't go back.
Why? Because he was a biphobic, polyphobic jerk. I mentioned polyamory as background information, because various partners, metamours and ex-partners were involved in the things we were talking about. I also mentioned my less-than-shiny childhood and the horrible bullying I suffered for years.
He took all this in, then proceeded to essentially inform me that identifying as bisexual and polyamorous was clearly a symptom of my dysfunctional past, characterised by a deep need to have lots of people in love with me because I was so screwed up from past traumas. Try though I did to explain that being poly wasn't the problem, he got stuck on it and couldn't move past that.
I left the appointment shaking, both angry and hurt, called Nomad, and burst into tears telling him about it. I cancelled the next appointment, and the rest of the scheduled sessions. I couldn't bear to go through that again. I decided coping with my stuff on my own was better.
Which I did, for a while – but then at the end of my second year, it became apparent I still needed some help in dealing with things. I was really afraid of therapy after the above experience, but I decided to give it one more go. Nervously, I signed up. This time I got an appointment pretty quickly.
And the therapist I had was….. amazing. She let me explain polyamory as necessary background information, clarified who was who, and then moved on to the stuff I actually wanted to talk about. From then on it was referred to when necessary, and she was always very respectful, referring to people in my life in the same ways I did. Even small things such as saying 'your partners' made a really big difference.
I have somebody else now, because Amazing Counsellor unfortunately left, and she's been great too. She had never come across poly before but has just taken it on board and been completely fine with it.
So if you have a bad experience, don't let it put you off, but also don't keep trying with a therapist you can't get on with. It won't work.
Incidentally, no, I didn't report the jerk's behaviour towards me. Perhaps I should have, but I wasn't in any headspace to do so at the time.
What about you, lovely readers? Any experiences with polyamory in therapy or counselling that you'd like to share, whether positive or negative? How have you found mental health or therapy services in relation to non-monogamy?

|Very, very beautiful. The print is not behind a glass or plastic frame, but it's not a regular paper print. I don't know what it's made of, but it's very sturdy, and the lack of a barrier to it makes it even lovelier to see. There might be a special glaze protecting the image; I'm not sure about that.

Late Sunday morning 12-year-old Deborah Partin was turning out DVDs about hydraulic fracturing-more commonly called "fracking"- on her computer in an upstairs room of her family's 140-year-old farmhouse along Ohio 260 in Monroe County.
Homeschooled by mom and dad, Ruth and Mike Partin, Deborah is using her love of photography and videography to help get the word out about the process companies use to extract oil and gas from local Marcellus and Utica shale beds.
"I've always liked photography, and started taking photos and videos of fracking presentations, wells and water samples last fall," Deborah said. "I'm taking 'before' photos now, and will take some 'after' fracking photos later to show people about the whole process."

Twelve-year-old Deborah Partin sits at the computer where she edits and makes hundreds of copies of DVDs her family uses to help educate people about the hydraulic fracturing process used to extract oil and gas from local Marcellus and Utica shale beds. In the background is Deborah's mom, Ruth Partin.
Ruth Partin said her daughter films and edits the video presentations, then makes copies that can be distributed in local communities to help educate people about hydraulic fracturing.
Deborah and her family have also gone door-to-door, handing out the informational DVDs in surrounding small towns like Woodsfield, Lewisville, Beallsville, Jerusalem, Sardis, and Duffy.
In addition, Ruth said they've provided some booklets and other resources to area libraries, and hope to eventually produce a DVD documentary about the entire process that interested folks can check out from their local library.

To learn more about the hydraulic fracturing DVDs being produced by the Partin family, call (740)934-2811, or e-mail Ruth Partin at email@example.com
Field trips to see hydraulic fracturing operations currently under way in Wetzel County, W.Va., are being conducted by the Wetzel County Action Group. Contact Rose Baker at (304)775-2340.
The Partins helped form Concerned Citizens of Monroe County, a group that would like to see a state moratorium on fracking until the process can be done safely without the risk of polluting local groundwaters. They're also networking with similar groups in surrounding counties in both Ohio and West Virginia.
"We want to alert landowners to at least get baseline and radiation testing of their water before the oil and gas companies start drilling on or near their properties," Ruth said. "We're urging people to educate themselves and do some research before leasing property to these companies."
She and husband, Mike say they're not against hydraulic fracturing and the economic boost it will bring to the area. But they believe the race to drill more wells in Ohio should be slowed so the state can put adequate regulations in place that will keep the process safe to protect residents and natural resources.
"This is something we need to do. And I think we may have greater concern because we moved out here 14 years ago for the beauty of this land," Mike said. "We want to see this economic development, too, but they need to find a way to make this process safer."
The Partins own 205 acres of farmland where they grow berries and other crops and raise a few horses.
Mike said many people who've lived in the Mid-Ohio Valley for years think the new hydraulic fracturing wells are the same as the much shallower oil wells their grandparents knew in the past.
"But this is not the same thing," he added. "They're mixing in chemicals and injecting between 5 and 7 million gallons of water to frack these wells."
In spite of her young age, Deborah already knows quite a bit about hydraulic fracturing and its potential impacts.
"An average golf course uses about 4 million gallons of water a year-and that's how much is also used by just one fracking well," she said. "But it's different because the water used in the fracking well becomes contaminated during the process."
The process involves the high-pressure injection of millions of gallons of water deep underground where it causes the shale beds to fracture and releases natural gas and related elements.
The briny water is then recovered and stored on-site until tanker trucks haul it away.
Deborah noted during the process some of the polluted water can evaporate into the air where people and animals may breathe it in.
Ruth added that the chemical-laden water is sometimes being used to help treat roadways for ice and snow, or to help control road dust.
"And this water contains toxic chemicals that can get into our springs and the local water table," she said.
The Partins hope to garner enough support from property owners and other concerned parties to put the brakes on hydraulic fracturing for now.
"This whole process needs to be slowed down," Ruth said. "Landowners should maintain control over what is done on their properties, and legislators need to stop this until there's a better examination of the whole fracking process."

More schools across the country are entrusting sports management to external vendors as playgrounds diminish, academic pursuits dominate and regular school hours get crammed with rote learning.
A clutch of start-up companies , such as Edusports, Leapstart, Sportseed, Kids Out of Home (KOOH) Sports, now provide integrated sports training facilities to such schools across the country. These firms provide sports infrastructure - including qualified coaches and equipment - and also work with advanced technologies to provide a better sporting experience to students.

Confident Stride starts 1st day as CIH president
Published by Anonymous for 24dash.com in Housing
steve stride
Steve Stride starts his first full day in office today as president of the Chartered Institute of Housing (CIH) following his election at the AGM.
"Those of you who know me will know how confident I will be in promoting our offer to government, business and the wider public," Stride said. "My passion for housing and the work we all do is as great today as when I first started out as a housing trainee for Southwark Council 36 years ago.
Stride is chief executive of Poplar HARCA housing association and has been CIH vice president for the past 12 months. He takes over from Paul Tennant.
Geraldine Howley, chief executive of Incommunities housing group, was elected vice president by CIH members last month and her appointment was also confirmed at Wednesday's AGM.
CIH chief executive Grainia Long said: "Steve will have a hugely important role to play championing the interests of CIH members and housing professionals. And as the general election approaches in 2015, we'll be working together to make sure the voice of housing is effectively represented in the political debate. Steve has done a great job as vice president so I know he can do the same as president."
Long also paid tribute to Tennant, calling him "a fantastic ambassador for CIH, our members and the importance of standards, ethics and professionalism in housing".
Stride has chosen foodbank campaigner Trussell Trust as his presidential charity of the year. On June 28th he will lead a group of Poplar HARCA staff on the Grand union Challenge - a 24-hour, 65-mile walk along the canal from Paddington in London to the beautiful Chilterns.
"I feel immensely privileged to be representing my housing peers and CIH as your president and am really looking forward to my year ahead and all we will achieve together," Stride said.

SIKESTON - Lee Hunter Elementary School is planning a golden anniversary celebration.
During the next several weeks, organizers will work to prepare a special celebration to commemorate 50th anniversary of the school, located at 315 Baker Lane. As closely as possible, they hope to replicate the actual program that took place on Sept. 1, 1954.
To help his students visualize how the school has evolved during the last 50 years, Principal Chuck Mayes plans to have pictures and memorabilia displayed throughout the school during the remainder of the 2004 school year. Mayes has served as the school's principal since 1999.
Anyone who attended or worked at the school is invited to take part in this event.
According to organizers this celebration is important to the community because the school has provided education to area students for 50 years. Teachers, students and their parents will have an opportunity to gain knowledge from the past and former educators, students or community leaders have stories to tell from the last 50 years that can provide insight for the future.
Organizers are looking for items like photographs of the land before the building was begun; architect's drawings or floor plans; photographs of the building while it was under construction; staff or class pictures from 1954-89 (candid or professional); and report cards, "S" awards or other memorabilia saved by students or their parents from 1954-1989.
Any borrowed material will be cataloged and returned to the owner in January.
The major celebration is planned for the first week in September. In order to catalog, compile and construct the displays, photographs and memorabilia are needed as soon as possible.
For more information, call the school office at 472-2200 from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday during the summer months. Office staff are available from 7:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. Monday through Friday during the school year.

Publisher's Description
Critic, author, and debunker extraordinaire, G. K. Chesterton (1874–1936) delighted in probing the ambiguities of Christian theology. A number of his most successful attempts at combining first-rate fiction with acute social observation appear in this original selection from his best detective stories featuring the priest-sleuth Father Brown.
A Chestertonian version of Sherlock Holmes, this little cleric from Essex — with "a face as round and dull as a Norfolk dumpling" and "eyes as empty as the North Sea" — appears in six suspenseful, well-plotted tales: "The Blue Cross," "The Sins of Prince Saradine," "The Sign of the Broken Sword," "The Man in the Passage," "The Perishing of the Pendragons," and "The Salad of Colonel Cray."
An essential item in any mystery collection, these delightful works offer a particular treat for lovers of vintage detective stories and will engage any reader.

Product Reviews
Elizabeth M5 Stars Out Of 5June 29, 2005Elizabeth MA true TREAURE! G.K. Chesterton is a favorite in our home school! Father Brown is a character the reader can respect and love. This author is so thoughtful in his writings and a master of telling a good mystery.
David Brewer5 Stars Out Of 5July 30, 2001David BrewerExceptional! Upon first reading, you think that Father Brown is incredibly clever and observant. Then, upon further reflection, you recognize that Chesterton is the true genius here.I'd rank these equal to or better than any Holmes mysteries. Very British, and with a large vocabulary, but riveting.

Silas Marner
by George Eliot
Silas Marner Chapter 19 Summary
- That night, Eppie and Silas are recovering from a very stressful day of finding out that they're actually rich—we should all have such problems. The gold is lying on the table, when a knock comes on the door. In walk Nancy and Godfrey.
- Godfrey apologizes for Dunstan. He points out that Silas is getting older and will probably want to stop working soon. Gradually he comes round to his point: they want to adopt Eppie.
- Poor Silas is trembling, but all he'll say is that he won't stop Eppie—who says thanks but no thanks. She insists that she can't leave the people she grew up with and doesn't want to be a lady.
- Godfrey is surprised and irritated that the object of his charity is getting in the way of his good intentions. He plays his trump card: Eppie is his daughter.
- Silas can't take any more. Why didn't Godfrey come forward earlier, instead of coming now when it's just like ripping his heart out, he asks?
- But Eppie insists that nothing is going to change the fact that Silas is her father.
- Godfrey can't believe this. Dude, he says, I can make Eppie rich.
- Silas admits that's true, but Eppie speaks up and insists that she can't leave Silas. What's more, she wasn't brought up to be a lady. She's a common villager, and she doesn't want anything better.
- Nancy, pure class as always, wishes Eppie the best.

Our house was built 1911 and is located close to Linnégatan, a street in the centre of Gothenburg with plenty of restaurants, cafés and pubs. The old part "Haga" which attracts lots of tourists, is just beside. You can also take a tram to the seaside, where all the small boats to all the little islands leave.
The bathroom was renovated last year and is very nice and fresh.
Every morning you are served an outstanding breakfast with home made bread and freshly ground coffee. If you want something special for your breakfast we will fix it with no extra cost.
Breakfast is served on a tray outside your door. You choose whether you wish to eat in your room, in our living-room or on our beautiful terrace on the green and calm garden.
Very welcome!

The room was confortable and big enough for two people. The ubication was perfect and María was really nice with us, with all recomendations for visiting the city, her hospitality and her homemade breakfast couldn't be better.
Lovely place to stay at an ideal location to visit Göteborg. Maria is a very welcoming host, her breakfast gives you a great start for the day!
We really enjoyed our stay in Göteborg. It was so familiar to be with Maria. Breakfast was poetry with self made, warm bread. Excellent hosting.
We had a wonderful stay at Maria's house with a delicious breakfast including self-made bread and muesli. So we can absolutely recommend this lovely room (and host :-) ) to any other guest.
We had a great time in Gothenburg! Maria and Mikael are kind people, our room as well as the whole appartment were pretty and the breakfast was delicious. The city centre, Haga etc. are within walking distance. So, everything was fine! :-D
Thanks, both of you! ;-)
We had a great time in Göteborg, especially at Marias place! The room was cosy and clean and the breakfast was perfect with very tasty selfmade bread! Maria and Micke gave us a warm welcome and answered every question we had.
The apartment is located in a very nice area just a few steps away from Haga, the great Slottsskogen park and with bars and restaurants around the corner.
Maria and Mickes lovely apartment is situated perfectly for a stay in Gothenburg city centre and their open and relaxed attitude make you feel very welcome! Furthermore we really appreciated the tasteful breakfast and the beautiful terrasse! We give Maria and Micke our best recommendations!
Excellent! We had a very pleasant weekend at Göteborg. Nice room, yummy breakfast and Maria was very helpful any time we had questions. Absolutely recommended - thanks!
A perfect place to stay!
The location is simply great: The tram/bus stop just a few steps from the house enables you to get everywhere by public transport. HAGA is a stone throw away. The harbour is a few minutes walk. But the very best of all is warm welcome you feel staying with Maria and Micke. Very friendly, very helpful they make you feel at home from the first moment. I should not forget to mention the nicely prepared breakfast. Thanks for the wonderful time at Gothenburg!

Parents whose children attend Pleasanton Unified School District were alerted Thursday that someone has been contacting students via social media in an attempt to obtain pornographic photos.
The messages were sent through Instagram, an app that allows users to take and share photos. It appears to have come from an account located "outside the community," according to a message sent by the district.
Superintendent Parvin Ahmadi said several students had recently received inappropriate messages, but she would not specify how many students had been contacted or which grade levels. The incidents did not take place at school or on school computers.
Instead, Ahmadi said the district's letter was meant to remind families to discuss Internet safety tips with their kids. That includes not sharing personal details online, not opening messages from strangers and notifying an adult when something inappropriate happens.
"We are asking parents to have that conversation with their children," Ahmadi said.

On this website, there was a post made Aug of 2009. Originally, the website was then known as ElianaCooks.com and now has changed it to KidChefEliana.com. I've put in redirects and the client still owns the former name. But lately, We're getting 404 Errors on this image. The image is there as is the post. However, it is being tagged as 404 error and I'm getting 10,000-20,000 hits to that picture in a day.
Any clue as to why and what can be done about this?
Thank you

Facebook has released its first TV ad to promote its Facebook Home software on Android, which it announced at a launch event last week.
The ad, which was created by Widen + Kennedy and only its second to date, features a rather surreal set of events where a traveller boarding a plane sees his photos come to life.
Sunbathers reading magazines are discovered inside the hand luggage compartments, a drag queen cabaret appears from the attendant's service cart, the traveller's nephew pops up covered in chocolate cake, and cats leap from seat to seat.
Facebook describes the ad as "a boring business trip gets a lot less boring, when Facebook Home brings a guy's friends on the journey with him. And all it takes is a few glances to reveal that his life isn't as conservative as his khakis".
However, the ad has been mocked by a number of comments online after Facebook posted the ad on its own promoted post. One of the top comments asked: "If I get a Facebook phone is my life going to be like a circus with that annoying tube sound following me around?"
Another user posted: "I don't even understand what they are trying to show us. It makes no sense to me. If I get a Facebook phone is my life going to be like a circus with that annoying tuba sound following me around?"
While another top comment said: "I'm 60 years old. If I opened a luggage compartment and found someone lying in there, I'd probably have a heart attack".
However, with almost 65,000 likes and 11,000 plus shares others seemed to have liked it.
This new ad follows its first TV spot 'Chairs' created last October to celebrate Facebook hitting the one billion-user mark.
Facebook says the ad is one of several that will come out over the coming weeks to promote its new home software, which will come preloaded on the HTC first and will be available for other Android phones to download.

Location: Food Components and Health Laboratory
Project Number: 8040-51000-056-00
Start Date: May 09, 2014
End Date: May 08, 2019
Epidemiological studies have shown that diets high in fruits and vegetables are associated with decreased risk of chronic diseases. However, the scientific foundation necessary to translate these epidemiological findings into dietary recommendations is weak. Studies will be conducted to determine the effect of postharvest processing on phytonutrient content. The initial focus of the postharvest studies will be leaf lettuce and tomatoes, and these studies will be expanded to include kale, spinach, swiss chard, and/or strawberries. Several studies will be conducted on phytonutrient (anthocyanins) bioavailability and metabolism. Methods will be developed to isotopically label quercetin in lettuce and isoflavones in soy. The influence of phytonutrients on biomarkers of chronic disease will be investigated, with an initial focus on phytonutrients found in garlic due to possible roles in cancer prevention. Genotyping will be included in clinical studies whenever sufficient scientific justification exists. This research will be conducted through plant growth and postharvest studies, human feeding trials, quantitative and qualitative chemistry, molecular biology, and kinetic mathematical modeling techniques. Information generated from this project can be used to develop recommendations for dietary intakes of phytonutrients that will improve health and reduce risk of chronic disease.

Notice of Availability of a Draft Programmatic Environmental Assessment for Office of Coast Survey Hydrographic Survey Projects
Notice Of Availability Of A Draft Programmatic Environmental Assessment; Request For Comments.
NOAA's Office of Coast Survey (OCS) seeks comment on a draft programmatic environmental assessment (PEA) of the hydrographic surveys and related activities that OCS regularly conducts in navigationally significant waters around the nation. These surveys use a vessel equipped with high-frequency side scan sonar, single beam, and multibeam echosounders, which use sound waves to find and identify objects in the water and to determine water depth. Hydrographic survey projects support the OCS mission to provide reliable nautical charts and other products necessary for safe navigation and sound decision-making in U.S. ocean and coastal waters. The intended effects of the surveys are to provide the foundation for navigational charts required by all domestic ships moving people and products in and out of U.S. ports every year. Charts help prevent mariners from running ships aground or hitting dangerous obstructions (e.g., ship wrecks, marine debris, or pinnacle rocks). Groundings or collisions with other objects in the sea can result in the release of oil or dangerous chemicals into the marine environment.
Date and Time: The above document is available for public review and comment through July 22, 2012.

In Germany the weather is cooling. Autumn has just arrived. I love this season and can't wait to get out my wooly hats and to start wearing scarves. I also know it is fall when I start to crave soul warming beverages. Philipp, one of Breidenbacher Hof's amazing bartenders, recommended a new cocktail that he promised would do the trick. This cocktail is part of our new promotion "Discover German Spirits @ Capella Bar," in which cocktails represented of Germany have been created. The cocktail I tried is called "Smoked Wood" and is inspired by the Black Forest. It really does remind me of the Black Forest and left me with a warm and cozy feeling. I decided it was the perfect introduction to the season and had to share the recipe with you.
Smoked Wood
3cl Monkey 47 Gin
1cl Arderg 10
2BL Plum liqueur
2cl Roses Lime Juice
4 Drops of chocolate Bitters
The preparation is simple. Just add the ingredients to a pint glass and stir. Taste for flavor balance and once satisfied, transfer to the serving glass of your choice. Easy!
The Monkey 47 Gin has a very unique flavor profile and even tastes a bit like fir needles. At the Capella Bar the cocktail is paired with a bacon canapé— together you truly feel transported to the Black Forest! If you are in Dusseldorf I definitely recommend stopping in to try the combination. In fact, follow @CapellaBBH on Twitter for a chance to win a complimentary cocktail as part of the #CapellaBarMonday promotion!

How Will Chile's Central Bank Respond to Slower Growth?
Chile's economic growth is slipping. Its proxy gross domestic product expanded by only 2.6% in the last month of last year, likely bringing fourth quarter output to just 2.7%, which economists say would be the slowest rate in almost four years.
How the central bank responds is the question many are asking. The central bank last cut its policy rate to 4.5% in November.
Capital Economics says that recent currency weakness, against a backdrop of a widening current account deficit and rising inflation, means that there is little room for the central bank to ease.
"The more modest cuts in interest rates that we had penciled in for this year [0.5 percentage point to 4.00%] now seem unlikely," it said.
BofA Merrill Lynch says that using local interest rate data for 13 economies, Chile is the only one where the market is pricing in interest rate cuts over the next 12 months.
Merrill says that turbulence in emerging markets isn't expected to deter Chile's central bank from cutting its policy rate by 25 basis points on February 18, pointing to below potential growth and weakening investments.
It says that its base case scenario sees a total of 75 basis points in cuts, although that could be revisited if central banks around the world increase rates, or if Chile's peso weakens sharply.
Economists say Chile's full year 2013 GDP likely expanded by 4.1%, which would be sharply down from the 5.6% rate posted last year.
"To be clear, we don't expect economic growth to collapse. But we do think that Chile is entering a period where growth will be much weaker. We are nudging down our forecast for growth this year to 2.8% (from 4.0%; consensus 4.0%)," Capital Economics said.

New York State Rule Regulating PFOS and PFOA: Implications for Tyco Fire Protection/Williams Customers
The Ambush™ System is designed to provide effective "system based" full-surface AND seal fire protection for external floating roof storage tanks.
Effective full-surface fire protection may be delivered by an experienced response team deploying significant water and foam resources via large-volume (Big Gun) manned transportable fire monitors, which are staged some distance from a burning tank — offering "over the top" trajectory and safe attack distances. This projection of water/foam solution onto the surface of the tank from a ground position is referred to as a "Type 3 Application".
As a seal protection option, traditional fixed foam systems (foam chambers, or foam pourers) are referred to as providing a "Type 2 Application" — delivering a "cascading application" of water/foam solution from unmanned systems affixed to the tank itself. This method of delivery commonly results in lower application volume targeting the seal area. This delivery proves inadequate to extinguish a full-surface fire scenario.
Delivered from outside the tank, consideration must be given to "fallout" of a Type 3 application — the water/foam solution that does not land inside the tank due to wind or general stream erosion from the ground assault. The benefit of a fixed system "Type 2 Application" is a potential increase in foam application density, ie gallons-per-minute required per square foot of storage tank surface area. Mounted to the rim of the tank, the Ambush™ configuration delivers a Type 3 Application toward the center of the tank for full surface protection, while simultaneously delivering lateral Type 2 application streams along the tank wall for seal fire protection. The elevated position of the Ambush™ system at the tank rim reduces / eliminates wind erosion and delivers a more forceful seal area application — reducing application times and using less water and foam concentrate than a strict "Type 3 Application".
As a fixed system component, the Ambush™ provides a quicker response time and less man power than a portable large volume delivery approach. Also, as a fixed system the Ambush™ requires less flow rate due to lower recommended application densities (gpm per ft2 of surface area exposed). Finally, use of the system requires less specialized training and exposes less personnel to a hazardous situation.
The Ambush™ System is available in several different sizes. Each size functions similarly. The stream is broken into 4 components. The Left/Right discharge streams are equal to each other and deliver foam left/right of the unit against the tank wall. The upper stream discharges foam at a slight angle toward the center of the tank. The fourth stream discharges foam back against the tank's shell and protects the area just below the unit with a small stream.
As the multiple foam streams projecting toward the center of the tank converge, they extinguish the fire in the center of the tank then build back toward the tank's shell. At the same time, the left/right streams project foam around the circumference of the tank extinguishing any fire near the tank shell. As the tank shell fire is extinguished, this coverage begins to grow toward the center of the tank to meet the foam blanket being established by the upper stream. Soon after, the entire tank will have a full foam blanket.

Dual Agent Foam Chamber
Recent responses have led Williams Fire & Hazard Control to develop this new COMPLIANCE+ product for automated incipient response to Internal Floating Roof Tanks.
Gorilla - 500 Lb PKW Dry Chemical Vessel
This package offers 500 lbs of dry chemical to sustain both ground and monitor based attacks — perfect for rollover events, terminal response, or any other three-dimensional scenario.
Center Shot / Flex Nozzle
Williams' nozzle design is intended to maximize reach and foam application for various scenarios.
Fire field logistics are ranked nearly as high as equipment on hand and personnel available when facing industrial responses. Large fires require large volumes of water, which sometimes require multiple large diameter water supply hoses. The most convenient, reliable, and safest means of distributing large volumes of water over an entire facility is by constructing underground water delivery systems with above ground hydrant manifolds. These hydrant manifolds are then used in conjunction with large diameter water supply hose to supply the necessary water to pumps, fire nozzles, and foam proportioning equipment.
• By more efficiently supplying water, swivel hydrants could reduce the number of necessary hydrant locations by as much as 50% (depending on hydrant layout and size)

Rebels abduct 11 soldiers in Nepal
KATMANDU, Nepal, April 29 (AP) Nepal's communist rebels abducted 11 unarmed soldiers as they headed home from vacation, an army official said Saturday, despite offering the new government a three-month unilateral cease-fire.
The soldiers were taken captive on Thursday from Ramdittha village, about 500 kilometers (310 miles) east of Katmandu, according to Indresh Dahal, a spokesman for the Royal Nepalese Army. The abduction came just hours after the rebels declared a three-month cease-fire, giving some breathing space to the reinstated Parliament following weeks of often violent protests against the king's royal dictatorship.
On Friday, lawmakers proposed a truce with the Maoists - who have battled for decades to replace Nepal's constitutional monarchy with a communist state - as they reconvened for the first time in four years after a campaign of street protests forced King Gyanendra to relinquish control. They also proposed elections for a special assembly that would rewrite the constitution.
The speaker of Parliament, Chitra Lekha Yadav, made the proposals on behalf of Girija Prasad Koirala, the newly named 84-year-old prime minister who could not attend because of ill health. "It is the people who have brought this change and we have to live up to their expectations," Yadav told legislators in the ornate hall.
The proposals, which also included initial talks with the Maoist rebels, were to be discussed in Parliament on Sunday, she said.
The rebels supported the nearly three-week campaign of demonstrations organized by an alliance of seven political parties against the royal government.
On Thursday, the rebels' elusive leader Prachanda said his group's fighters would refrain from attacking government targets for three months to allow Parliament time to ready Nepal for elections for the special assembly.
The current constitution gives the king broad powers to dismiss governments along with supreme command of the army. The expectation on the streets - and the key demand of the well-armed Maoists - is that a new charter will limit or eliminate the monarchy's role, ensuring that Gyanendra can never seize power as he did in February 2005.
It wasn't clear how the soldiers' abductions would affect the government's offer of a truce. The National Human Rights Commission issued a statement Saturday urging the safe and unconditional release of the unarmed men.
The rebels, who claim to be inspired by Chinese revolutionary Mao Zedong,
began their violent campaign to replace the monarchy with a communist state
in 1996. The insurgency has left more than 13,000 dead.

By Ms. Jenn Miller (USACE)October 12, 2012
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Lt. Gen. Thomas P. Bostick, commanding general of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), visited the Everglades October 10, 2012 to see the restoration work being performed by the Jacksonville District and their partnering agencies.
"USACE has one of the largest environmental restoration and sustainability roles in the federal government, and the Everglades restoration is our largest project of this kind," said Lt. Gen. Thomas P. Bostick, commanding General of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. "After viewing first-hand the enormous challenges facing Everglades restoration and meeting with our partners in this effort, I am absolutely convinced that working together, we can achieve restoration goals and improve this ecological treasure for future generations."
During his trip to the Everglades, Bostick visited the Tamiami Trail Modifications project site in Miami-Dade County, a project sponsored by the National Park Service. At the site, he met with Shannon Estenoz, Director of Everglades Initiatives for the Department of the Interior; Dan Kimball, superintendant of Everglades National Park; Dave Sikkema, project manager for Everglades National Park; Bob Johnson, director of the South Florida Natural Resources Center; Col. Alan Dodd, Jacksonville District commander and members of the project team to discuss the ongoing construction at the site.
"Progress continues to be made in Everglades restoration," said Col. Alan Dodd, Jacksonville District commander. "This progress is contingent upon the commitment of this district and our partnering agencies. Through a dedicated and collaborative effort, we will not only continue to move forward in our restoration goals but also fulfill our obligation to the nation to preserve this national treasure."
Construction of the $81 million Tamiami Trail project, a key component of the Modified Water Delieveries to Everglades Nation Park, began in 2010. The project includes constructing a one-mile bridge and raising and reinforcing an additional 9.7 miles of road, allowing increased water flows that are essential to the health and viability of the Everglades.
"A major construction milestone for the Tamiami Trail Modifications project was reached July 13 as the first concrete pour on the bridge deck was completed," said Tim Brown, Jacksonville District project manager. "This milestone signified the start toward the end of the project's bridge construction. However, there is still more work to do and it is our collective discipline that will ensure our project's success."
After seeing the Tamiami Trail Modifications project, Bostick, along with agency representatives, took an airboat ride through Everglades National Park to see first-hand this national treasure.

Bill Belichick gave strong indications Tuesday that his key players will work into the second half Thursday night in the game at Detroit
Belichick was asked if there how much value he saw in having starters see extensive duty in the third preseason game. That is the one time in preseason when coaches tend to give their starters the biggest test before regular-season play.
``There's a lot to be said to players coming in at halftime. . . then going back and playing again,'' the coach said. ``It's good to do if possible. It's not an absolute. We'll see how it goes.''
