This invention relates generally to a system for performing computed x-ray tomography and more particularly to an arrangement for precisely sensing and indicating that a patient extends beyond an image reconstruction circle of the system.
In one method of computed tomography a patient is supported for being translated along a longitudinal axis which is usually horizontally disposed. The axis coincides with the center of rotation of a rotatable gantry which has an x-ray source on one side of the center of rotation and a multiple array of x-ray detectors on the other side. A fan shaped x-ray beam that is thin in the longitudinal direction is projected through the patient as the gantry rotates so that the detectors may develop signals indicative of x-ray transmission characteristics along a plurality of paths through the patient undergoing examination. Analog signals representative of x-ray attenuation by all of the volume elements in a layer of the patient at various rotational angles are then converted to digital signals which are used by a computer to produce signals which may thereafter be used to produce a reconstructed image of the layer. The image is reconstructed by analyzing all of the signals within a central cross-sectional area of the system known as the "reconstruction circle." The analog signals are analyzed and converted based upon all of the x-ray attenuation taking place within the reconstruction circle. If the cross section of the patient is either too large or improperly positioned so that a portion of the patient extends outside of the reconstruction circle, the x-ray attenuation of that portion will be erroneously interpreted. The resulting reconstructed image might not be clear or accurate and could require reexamination, or could even provide misinformation. It is therefore extremely important to know, before the scanning process, whether the patient is properly positioned within the reconstruction circle to alleviate the necessity of re-examination.
One method of sensing an oversized or improperly positioned patient involves the application of mechanical templates and sizing devices physically over and around the patient while the patient is in the staged position. Such devices are awkward to handle, time consuming and are typically removed prior to transaltion of the patient into the system. The patient-oversize checks by this method are not always performed closely adjacent to the scan plane. There is time for the patient to shift out of position, between the time of checking and the time of scanning.
A problem associated with the prior art is that the oversized patient check is not done automatically and can be overlooked. Another problem is that there is no opportunity to monitor the patient once in the gantry and between successive scans to insure that the patient remains within the reconstruction circle.
There are situations where the scans will be desired by the physician or radiology technician even though the patient may extend beyond the reconstruction circle. It is important however that these situations always be acknowledged and recorded for proper caution in interpretation of the scans.
Accordingly, one object of this invention is to provide an arrangement to automatically sense and indicate that a patient extends beyond an image reconstruction circle of a computed tomography system.
Another object is to monitor the size and position of the patient over the area to be examined immediately prior to initiating the scanning operation.
Another object is to monitor the size and position of a patient by an arrangement which does not interfere with the patient or the scanning operation and is immediately adjacent to the scan plane of the system.
Another object is to indicate an oversized patient condition on a control panel of the system.
Still another object of this invention is to provide an arrangement to indicate the presence of an oversized patient on an operator's console which requires an operator response, such as, to either abort the scan or override and continue with the examination.
The invention is directed to an arrangement for sensing and indicating if a cross section of a patient extends beyond an image reconstruction circle during examination by a computed tomography system. The tomography system includes a source of an x-ray beam and a detector disposed on opposite sides of a generally vertical gantry. The terms x-ray and x-ray source are used herein for the sake of brevity and convenience, but these terms should be construed as embracing gamma radiation and the gamma sources and other penetrating radiation and sources as well. The gantry has a generally cylindrical opening for receiving the patient. The patient is supported on a generally horizontal table which is translatable along the longitudinal axis generally centered within the opening of the gantry. The table is displacable for the purpose of disposing longitudinal successive layers of the patient into the path of the x-ray beam.
The sensing and indicating arrangement is generally described as at least one light beam which is generally tangent to the reconstruction circle and which is directed to a corresponding number of photo sensors which signal an interruption of any of the light beams. The arrangement comprises at least one light emitting source disposed within the gantry and which is closely adjacent the reconstruction circle. Each light emitting source projects a light beam along a line which is generally parallel with the plane of the reconstruction circle and generally tangent to a cylinder having a diameter and central axis in agreement with the reconstruction circle. A corresponding number of photo detectors are each disposed within the gantry and aligned to receive each of the light beams. The photosensors are interconnected to the system by means for indicating an interruption of any of the light beams between any of the sources and the detectors.
While the novel features of the invention are set forth with particularity in the appended claims, the invention will be better understood along with other features thereof from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a front elevation view of a gantry of a computed tomography system having a cutaway portion revealing the arrangement of this invention;
FIG. 2 is a side elevation view of the system shown in FIG. 1 having a cutaway portion revealing the arrangement of the invention;
FIG. 3 is a front elevation view of a rotatable base structure of the gantry for supporting the arrangement of the invention;
FIG. 4 is a side elevation view of the structure shown in FIG. 3; and
FIG. 5 is a block diagram of the arrangement incorporated into the system.
Referring first to FIGS. 1 and 2 there is shown a portion of a computed tomography system 10. A table for supporting a patient undergoing tomography examination is generally designated by referenced numeral 12. The table has a top 14 on which a patient may be supported in a recumbent position. Top 14 is translatable in the longitudinal direction so that it extends in cantilever fashion from table 12 for the purpose of disposing successive longitudinal layers of a patient's body in the path of a scanning x-ray beam. The mechanism for advancing and retracting the patient longitudinally is within the housing of table 12 and is not shown in detail since it forms no part of the present invention.
X-ray scanning and obtaining x-ray attenuation data on a multitude of small volume elements in the patient is carried out with components of a gantry which is generally designated by the referenced numeral 16. Gantry 16 is generally vertical having a cylindrical opening 18 for receiving the patient for examination. The gantry 16 includes a base 20 about which the components of the gantry can be tilted about a transverse axis and rotated about a central longitudinal axis 22.
Basic elements of the gantry 16 are shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 attached to rotatable structure 24. Rotatable structure 24 includes bearing structure 25 for rotation thereon about longitudinal axis 22. In general terms, rotatable structure 24 has a frame comprised of side members 26 and 28, a top cross member 30 and a bottom cross member 32. An x-ray source is mounted to cross member 30 by means of a bracket assembly 36 and positioned so that the central ray of the x-ray beam eminating from the x-ray source passes through the longitudinal axis 22. Mounted to the output side of x-ray source 34 is a collimator device 38 which in this particular design collimates the x-ray beam into a thin fan-shaped beam which originates from a substantially point source on the target of an x-ray tube in source 34. In a commercial embodiment, by way of example, the longitudinal thickness of the x-ray beam is about 1 centimeter and a slice or layer of corresponding thickness in the patient is penetrated by the beam for each scan. An x-ray detector and data acquisition assembly 40 is mounted to bottom cross member 32 and is aligned with collimator 38. The detector portion has a curved x-ray input window behind which there is an array of adjacent detector cells, which are not visible. Each cell produces output signals corresponding with the intensity of the plurality of rays that radiate from the x-ray source and penetrate continuous series of volume elements of a patient layer that is disposed along the longitudinal axis during x-ray examination of the patient. A suitable detector is shown in U.S. Pat. No. 4,031,396 by Whetten et al and assigned to the assignee of this application. Other detector forms are known to those skilled in the art. The descreet plurality of analog signals representative of x-ray attenuation by small volume elements in the patient are processed in a data acquisition system after which the analog signals are converted to digital signals which are used by a computer, not shown, to execute the image reconstruction algorithm. The signals and reconstruction algorithm are computed based upon all of the x-ray attenuation taking place within a central area shown as a dashed line and known as the reconstruction circle 42. Reconstruction circle 42 is concentric with the central axis of rotation of gantry 16 which is also longitudinal axis 22. The reconstruction circle of this particular embodiment has a diameter of 42 centimeters. The above described computed tomography system is generally known in the art.
As previously discussed, it is important that the patient be centered within the reconstruction circle during scanning by the system. A suitable arrangement for facilitating central alignment of the patient in a staged position is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,117,337, entitled "PATIENT POSITIONING INDICATION ARRANGEMENT FOR A COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY SYSTEM" and filed concurrently herewith in the name of P. Staats and assigned to the same assignee as this application. However, even though a patient may be centrally aligned with the reconstruction circle 42 at a staged position, the patient may shift out of position or be too large and extend beyond the reconstruction circle. In order to precisely indicate if a portion of a patient extends beyond the reconstruction circle a sensing arrangement is provided and is a principle feature of this invention.
The arrangement is characterized by a set of sources and sensors, such as a photo cell system as described below, inscribing the reconstruction circle 42. Any energy source which can be directed and sensed, such as electromagnetic, infra red and other portions of the energy spectrum could be provided to inscribe the desired area, and the energy beam sources are not limited to light sources. The arrangement of this preferred embodiment comprises light emitting sources 44, 46 and 48 projecting light beams 50, 52 and 54. The light sources are mounted on supporting arms 56 and 58 so that each light beam is projected along a line which is generally parallel to the plane of reconstruction circle 42 and generally tangent to a cylinder in space having a diameter and central axis 22 in agreement with the reconstruction circle. In this preferred embodiment, light source 48 is positioned by the supporting arm 58 so as to project light beam 54 generally horizontally directed substantially across opening 18 and tangent to reconstruction circle 42. Light sources 44 and 46 are positioned by support arms 56 and 58 so as to project light beams 50 and 52 generally vertically directed substantially across opening 18 but which are 2.5 centimeters behind the plane of reconstruction circle 42 so as not to interfere with the x-ray beam eminating from collimator 38. A bottom horizontal beam is not necessary since the patient is confined by supporting table top 14 and thereby the lower sector is always within the reconstruction circle. The three light beams 50, 52 and 54 generally define three sides of a square having sides of 42 centimeters and inscribe the 42 centimeter reconstruction circle. When rotatable structure 24 is rotated with gantry 16, the light beams define a 42 centimeter circle. A suitable light emitting source is known as the Skan-a-matic L 130 which is a #12 bi-pin 6.3 volt and 0.18 amp, lamp.
Corresponding detectors 60, 62 and 64 are also mounted to support arms 56 and 58 and are aligned to receive each of said light beams at the opposite side of opening 18. A suitable photodetector is commercially available as the Skan-a-matic P 130 having a rise and fall time of 3 microseconds and a forward current of 20 milliamps. The light emitting sources 44, 46 and 48 and photodetectors 60, 62 and 64 are electrically wired in parallel so that an interruption of any of light beams 50, 52 or 54 would produce a signal indication.
The three mutually perpendicular light beams 50, 52 and 54 inscribing the reconstruction circle 42 and substantially in the same plane as the reconstruction circle is the preferred embodiment of the arrangement. The location of the light beams within the gantry also serve to automatically reduce the sensing height correspondingly with the reduced height of the reconstruction circle when the gantry is in the tilted position. However, a variety of positions and quantity of sources and detectors could alternatively be arranged to inscribe the reconstruction circle. A single light beam (as 52), which is tangent to or closely adjacent to one point of the reconstruction circle 42 could be rotated to make a perimeter check of the entire reconstruction circle.
The most likely locations for a patient to extend beyond the reconstruction circle is at either side. The recumbent body tends to be horizontally oval-shaped in cross section and also the arms can sometimes be extended to the side and out of the circle. As an alternative arrangement, two vertically tangent beams (such as 50 and 52) and which would not even need to rotate, would provide a sensing arrangement with some degree of reliability.
Another set of light beams could alternatively be arranged forward of gantry 16 and in the path of the translatable tabletop 14 along longitudinal axis 22. The forwardly arranged beams would be tangent to a cylinder having a diameter and central axis in agreement with the reconstruction circle 42 and thereby sense if the patient extended beyond the circle as the patient was translated adjacently beside the beams and into the gantry.
Referring to FIG. 5 a block diagram describes how the arrangement is incorporated into the tomography system. The patient sensing and indicating arrangement of this invention is designed to inform the computer and the operator if the patient's anatomy under examination is not within the reconstruction circle. The arrangement is incorporated electrically into the control panel, and into the software of the computer of the system. The lamp and detector arrangement is activated prior to advancing the patient into the scanning position. The system in this preferred embodiment is designed so that the patient is translated into the deepest scan, through the sensing arrangement, and then successively sequenced out of the gantry for the additional examining scans. The above sequence allows the entire area of interest to be automatically sensed, and confirmed to be within the reconstruction circle, prior to initiating the first scan and thereby generally precludes interruption of the examination. The arrangement remains activated throughout the examination. The block designated "lamps and detectors" 66, represents the light beam arrangement wired in parallel so that an interruption of any light beam will produce a signal to "logic" circuitry 68. The logic circuitry 68 then initiates and "indicator signal" 70 on the control panel, initiates a signal to the "computer interface board" 72 and initiates a signal to inhibit the "control of x-ray scan" 74. The tomography scanning operation is thereby discontinued at this point and computer interface circuit board 72 prints a "patient oversize" statement at the computer terminal 76. The operator now has two choices, one is to go ahead with the scan and include the patient oversize information for that particular scan file, and two is to abort the current scan and try scanning again. The system will not continue unless an operator responds to the statement with a command such as "override" at computer terminal 76. If the override command is given, circuit board 72 will transmit this statement through the logic to continue operation of the system even though the patient may be extended beyond the reconstruction circle.
Alternatively, the system could be arranged to automatically abort the scanning operation at any time after the detectors sense that a portion of the patient extends beyond the reconstruction circle. An alternative system could also incorporate a simple override or reset switch on the control panel which could reactivate the system and continue with the scanning examination.
As an additional safety feature, once the detectors signal to the logic that a portion of the patient extends beyond the reconstruction circle the logic also initiates a signal to the elevation drives (not shown) of the table and the tilt drive (not shown) for the gantry to prohibit any movement of the table or the gantry as long as the oversize condition exists. This prevents movement of the table or the gantry which might bring the patient in contact with the surface of the cylindrical opening (16) of the gantry.
The arrangement of this invention automatically senses and indicates if a patient extends beyond an image reconstruction circle of a computed tomography system. The arrangement does not interfere with the patient or the scanning operation and is immediately adjacent the scan plane of the system to monitor the size and position over the area of the patient to be examined, immediately prior to initiating the scanning operation. If a portion of the patient is found to extend beyond the reconstruction circle the arrangement cooperates with the software of the system to provide an oversized indication lamp on the control panel and to initiate a statement to the computer terminal which requires an operator response in order to continue the examination.
While specific embodiments of the present invention have been illustrated and described herein, it is realized that modifications and changes will occur to those skilled in the art. It is therefore to be understood that the appended claims are intended to cover all such modifications and changes as fall within the true spirit and scope of the invention.

Further proving 2011 is thus far a hot year for digital ad firm fundraising, mobile advertising company Millennial Media has raised $27.5 million, bringing its capital to date to $65 million.
Millennial declined to comment on whether this was a Series D round. However, its most recent round was a $16-million Series C financing in 2009.
Previous investors Bessemer Venture Partners, Columbia Capital, Charles River Ventures and New Enterprise Associates participated. Millennial declined to name a lead investor.
The company's website also lists Acta Wireless among its prior investors.
Proceeds will be used for growth, particularly in Europe and Asia, according to Mack McKelvey, SVP of marketing. The round will also fund further acquisitions. The company acquired mobile analytics company TapMetrics last year.
"In 2010, our business grew at an accelerated pace. We reached operational profitability, while growing revenue by [three times] as compared to 2009," said Millennial CEO Paul Palmieri (pictured] in a written statement. "We launched formal operations in Europe… We have also made some early steps in Asia/Pacific that we expect to build upon aggressively in 2011."
Palmieri added the company has further invested in its technology platform, which supports Millennial's mobile ad network as well as ad programs operated by partners.
Millennial said its U.S. mobile ad network business reaches more than 85 percent of mobile Web users in the country and serves more than 17 billion mobile ad impressions each month. Its customers include McDonalds, Paramount Pictures, Lexus, Coca-Cola, Stella McCartney and Microsoft.
According to the Millennial website, directors include Palmieri; Wenda Harris Millard, president of Media Link; Patrick Kerins, general partner at NEA; Bob Goodman, partner at Bessemer Venture Partners; George Zachary, partner at Charles River Ventures; Jay Markley, venture partner at Columbia Capital; and Alan MacIntosh, managing partner at Acta Capital. McKelvey said there were no changes as a result of the most recent round.
Founded in 2006, Millennial had 100 employees as of December 2010 and plans to hire another "50-plus" in 2011, according to McKelvey.

Added 10k shares at this oversold state. Full disclosure I now own 70,000 shares and this last 10k share buy brought my average down to $2.75 per so later this summer I am sitting just right. Sorry can't stick around and complain all day like most of you. Headed off to the links for 18 and should finish up in time to read the earnings this evening over Chardonnay and grilled sword fish . Enjoy your day.....Hello to Nubes and Ammen. This is a rare opportunity to load up.
wrong, your average is at about 3.02, given this posting:

Filled low $2.70's and I picked a good day to average down in two ways. First Biotech's and IBB got crushed allowing me the opportunity to steal this stock. Second with the progress being made at DARA is tremendous and my smartly timed investment today, will pay handsom dividends in the not to distant future. I am one happy MF'r for todays action and timing, brilliance. My average on 60k shares is now $3.30 and that I can bank on for a massive return guaranteed.....good day.
Sounds to me like he got caught in the RED TSUNAMI.

Nice add Mitch! LOL!
Wow to admit failure is one thing, but to throw cash into a fire (DARA) is just pure stupidity ...

Greetings Bob, I had a suspicion that I might be hearing from you today. Ahhh the testing of one's convictions and beliefs, that's always a puzzler. So you ask about mine and to answer in short yes I do, but allow me to pontificate. The lows that I bought at in Dec are back upon us, so I bought more. Why? because $4.20 is not here yet, you've been a staunch believer in free money, so I assume you're loading the boat today? Also you're good at math so placate me for a moment and figure my estimated profit this year.
Thirty thousand shares at a strike price of $1.01, (Dec '11) sell at $4.20 with a time line of 12 - 15 months. Commission a mere $6 per each way, so It's not rocket science what's my expected profit?.....(Jeopardy music interlude)...........and the answer is?
Yes nearly a six figure profit, and to most traders that's a pretty good return for the time frame. So until $4.20 is on the tape, I sit quietly and wait. Oh and yes I firmly believe in this.
PS. For the newbies you need to multiply the PPS numbers by 5 due to the reverse split.
Mitchdoosh...the captain of the Titanic had better odds than this pos
Sentiment: Strong Sell
Is this the second or third average down since you were "all in?" And 12 overall right?
I really hope you do not bring your credit or atm cards with you when you go to a casino.
If I were you Mitch I'd schedule a trip to see a doctor today too. This isn't dropping because they have good news to report.
Colonoscopy may be necessary.

The Smokers Should Try Out The Nicocig To Avoid Creating Smoke Around Them And Even Avoid Cancer
While some of the habits of the humans such as alcoholism that would affect the individuals only except for creating malice to others due to the behavior of the inebriated souls, there are other habits such as smoking that would not just affect the person's health, but also ensure that they are malicious to others who are present in the physical vicinity of the smokers, since the smoke emanates from the persons and since this carries the toxins such as carcinogens, even those who have not touched a cigarette all throughout their lives would be succumbed to the cancer and other ailments that are typical to be observed only in the smokers. This is due to the fact that those who are around the smokers would become passive smokers, which can be avoided when the active smokers switch over from smoking the cigarettes to the products like Nicocig which are also called as electronic cigarettes, since these are intended to deliver the pure form of nicotine into the system of the person's body, but will not inject the carcinogens into the bodies which are dangerous in causing cancers in the future of the person, which could also lead them to death at a younger age after suffering from severe medical ailments. Even in the case of consumption of nicotine, the smokers can check with the medics as to what could be their intake and pick up the electronic cigarette that would deliver the equivalent amount of nicotine. Moreover, as time passes, the users of e cigarette can reduce the dosage gradually and bring it down to 0mg which is zero-nicotine strength after which they can stop their smoking habit completely. Since the cost of these electronic cigarettes is much lesser in the long run than the regular ones, it is necessary for users to save some money as well.

Skip to comments.Nearly Half of U.S. Meat Tainted With Drug-Resistant Bacteria
Posted on 04/15/2011 9:06:22 AM PDT by hope_dies_last
"Heres something to think about the next time you stop by the meat counter at your local grocery store there may be drug-resistant strains of bacteria lurking in that steak or chicken...."
A study by the Translational Genomics Research Institute, found that Staphylococcus aureus a bacteria that causes most staph infections including skin infections, pneumonia and blood poisoning are present in meat and poultry from U.S. grocery stores at unexpectedly high rates.
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
Fear sells news.
Duh. If people would pay attention, there would be no risk to any of this. Sometimes when I go to dinner parties I am shocked at the recklessness of some cooks habits. When people are too stupid to properly and safely feed themselves, the society is finished.
Why would eating the improper diet for humans become more appealing?
Wonder if it has anything to do with using illegal aliens in the low paying part of the meat industry.
I think half the food we eat is really poison.
Experts say although Staph can be killed with proper cooking, it still may pose a risk to people who handle food improperly, and cross-contamination in the kitchen.
We pay a little more for Amish or Mennonite raised chicken. They take pride in their work and my father (who was contracted to inspect their plants by the State of Minnesota) told me their standards were far cleaner than what the law required.
The produce industry agrees.
Maybe, but mostly I think it has to do with routinely feeding antibiotics to the livestock. Of course the bacteria they are infested with are the resistant ones, it's basic evolution. The non-resistant ones are killed off, the resistant ones thrive.
There are a number of methods that can preclude this problem including irradiation of meat. A lot of processed chicken is irradiated although that is not well known. The usual scare tactics and ignorance about the process limit the industry in it's ability to use what is a very effective method.
Thank you Obama!
Yes, my list of pet peeves are long. I particularly admire handling raw chicken, putting on the platter to grill, then using the same platter for the cooked meat. Oh, and using the same tongs that flipped the raw chicken to serve. Never disinfecting the faucet handles when washing your contaminated hands. Not bleaching cutting boards, refrigerator door handles, bathroom door handles, flush handles. It's endless.
Not particularly surprising. Most people have one or more antibiotic resistant bacteria already living inside them. Here is what people need to know:
1) A normal person has between 300-1000 different kinds of bacteria living in their gut. But just 30-40 different kinds occupy almost all the space as big populations. There are also a huge number of viruses that vastly outnumber the bacteria. Most of them are called "bacteriophages", which means that they attack bacteria, not human cells. They help keep the bacteria in check.
2) When a person is sick, or exposed to radiation, or takes antibiotics, some poisonous chemicals, or other things, it can upset the balance of bacteria in the gut, with some populations reduced, and others increased.
3) When a bacteria, any bacteria, becomes resistant to antibiotics, it gives it a huge advantage when the person takes antibiotics. Vast numbers of its competitors are wiped out, so that bacteria can have a population explosion.
4) While other bacteria kept an antibiotic resistant bacteria down, it could not produce enough toxic waste to harm its human host. But with them out of the way, and its population exploding, it produces far more toxic waste than the human can deal with.
5) For many years it was thought that the way to fight infections like this was to use bacteriophages. But only recently, scientists have learned that bacteria can become resistant to bacteriophages even faster than they can to antibiotics. So though they will still use bacteriophages, they only do so under very controlled situations, and in combination with antibiotics.
6) So the bottom line is to not overuse antibiotics, with the idea of keeping a healthy and balanced intestinal flora. One alternative that is being proposed is to take a large sample of flora from a healthy person and transplant it to the gut of a person with a bad flora, to try and reestablish a balanced culture of bacteria.
Including irradiation of meat works,Isn't the meat the military receves irradiated?.
Nope, makes me want either raise my own beef or go hunting.
Squirrel and rabbit are good this time of year.
Freshly killed free range chicken is better than anything in the store.
If you ask around, it's pretty easy to go in halves with a hand raised pig.
Plenty of options, no reason to do anything drastic like giving up the omnivore diet we were created to eat.
Humans already learned this 10,000 years ago - cook your meat.
Back in my line-cooking days, chicken was treated like hazardous material—seperate cutting boards, utensils, cleaning all that stuff with bleach. I still treat chicken (and eggs) very carefully, wash my hands constantly, try not to touch anything with chicken-fouled (har har) hands.
That's probably the intended outcome of the study. These studies are NEVER funded without some kind of political agenda attached. I consider ALL such studies to be worthless BS. In two months there will be another telling us how healthy 2-3 portions of meat a day are. BS. I'll eat what I want, when i want because I like it.
Does our tax money go to the "Translational Genomics Research Institute" loonies?
It sounds like it. To keep our money rolling in to them, they have to invent such crap.
I will never buy a Tyson product. They tied themselves to the Klintoons.
So they tested a grand total of 26 stores in 5 cities and declared we now know how much of US meat has bacteria?
Anybody have a link to the actual study? If I'm doing my math right, picking 26 items out of a population of 230,000(# grocery stores in the US) gives an error of +/- 19% at a 95% confidence level.
I think my stats professor would have a fit.
As for testing 136 samples of meat it's a little better, +/- 8.4% using a really large number for the population... but then there are other issues I have questions about, did they adjust their sample sizes based on what products are most available? I.E. take more samples of beef than pork(I'm assuming there is more beef in the US than pork)? I'm also concerned with there being only 5 cities. And how many different producers of meat are represented here?
Way too many questions about this study to believe it from a news article.
Anyways, I cook properly and wash my hands so I guess I shouldn't really be this concerned. ;)
Sounds like the new scare-fad of the day.
I believe that it might be. I was a research assistant for one of the university research grants from the Army Natick Labs in 1975-76 and our small part of the research looked at the effects of irradiation on various strains of E-Coli and several other organisms that could be present in raw meat. A very effective process when done correctly; I saw one study that irradiated a slab of freshly cut beef, vacumn sealed it and put it on a shelf at room temp. After a number of months it was opened and evaluated and was as fresh as the day it was cut and was bacteria free. The same process could be used on veggies. I don't know if the military adopted this on a larger scale. If they did it would have been for deployable rations and food since I believe that most meat, like other commodities for garrison use are purchased locally or through local distributors. After finishing my degree and reentering the military I purchased meat from the commissary and ate meat in field types of situations where the meat would spoil if not used within a reasonable time so I don't know if it was ever mandated for whatever use.
I can identify with that. About 18 years ago I was cutting some chicken at home for dinner and did not realize that I had a slight paper cut on one finger. That was all that it took. My finger swelled up to three times its normal size and turned black within two days. The flight surgeon actually told me that I might lose the finger. I took the antibiotics and after several days accidently lanced the wound by smacking it against a hard object. I drained it and scrubbed it with a surgical brush, hot water and alcohol and reported directly back to the flight surgeon who looked at it and said I had done a good job and it should heal within three days. It did, but that was an extremely unpleasant lesson.

The bacteria can be killed by cooking but the toxins are heat resistant.

DOD Business Transformation:
Status of DOD's Actions on Previous Recommendations for the Defense Travel System
GAO-09-416T: Published: Mar 5, 2009. Publicly Released: Mar 5, 2009.

Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
In 1995, the Department of Defense (DOD) began an effort to implement a standard departmentwide travel system--the Defense Travel System (DTS). As part of its ongoing monitoring, GAO's April 2008 testimony before this subcommittee highlighted challenges confronted by the department in its implementation efforts. GAO's testimony today is based on its current follow-up work conducted at the request of this subcommittee, as well as the Subcommittee on Readiness. GAO's testimony today focuses on the actions DOD has taken to (1) implement previous GAO recommendations regarding implementation of DTS and related travel policies, (2) phase out legacy travel systems and their associated costs, and (3) implement electronic travel voucher processing. To address these objectives, GAO (1) analyzed specific documentation, such as test documentation, travel policies, and budget data, and (2) interviewed appropriate DOD travel personnel.
GAO has made 14 recommendations aimed at improving DOD's management oversight and implementation of DTS and related travel policies to make DTS the standard departmentwide travel system. GAO considers 7 of the 14 recommendations closed and the remaining 7 recommendations as being open. The 7 closed recommendations pertained to premium-class travel, unused airline tickets, use of restricted airfare, proper testing of system interfaces, and streamlining of certain travel processes, such as the process for approving travel voucher expenses. GAO's analysis of the 7 closed recommendations found that the actions taken by the department responded to the intent of the recommendations. Of the 7 open recommendations, 3 related to the adequacy of DTS's requirements management and system testing, 3 to DTS underutilization, and 1 to developing an approach that will permit the use of automated methods to reduce the need for hard copy receipts to substantiate travel expenses. In the area of requirements management and testing, GAO found that while DTS's requirements management and testing process has improved, problems still persist. The problems were generally related to missing documentation, the limited scope of requirements testing performed, or both. In the area of DTS utilization, GAO found that the department still does not have in place the metrics to determine the number of manual travel vouchers that should have been processed through DTS. Further, DOD does not have accurate and complete information on the number of legacy travel systems that are still in use by the military services. Defense Travel Management Office (DTMO) data indicates that there are 23 legacy travel systems, but military services' data identify 12--10 of which are on the DTMO list. In addition, GAO found that the department lacks visibility of the cost to operate and maintain these legacy systems. The DTMO and the military services could only provide limited cost data for each identified legacy travel system and the department's fiscal year 2009 information technology budget contained cost data for only 3 of the 23 systems on the DTMO list. According to the military services, some of the legacy systems will be needed even after DTS has been deployed to all intended locations because DTS will not include certain functionality, such as the processing of civilian permanent duty travel. Without a valid inventory of legacy travel systems, it is unlikely that DOD management or the Congress will receive reliable reports regarding when duplicative systems are likely to be eliminated and the annual savings available from avoiding the associated operating and maintenance costs. Finally, GAO found that there is a significant difference between the costs of processing a travel voucher manually and electronically. Based upon departmental data , the fee charged to process a travel voucher manually is about 15 times greater than electronic voucher processing--approximately $37 manually and $2.50 electronically. Shutting down legacy travel systems, which require manual processing, would provide cost savings to the department related to the processing of travel vouchers.

Stressed: who me? Our supermum test as study finds working mums and dad struggle to stay sane
- From: Sunday Herald Sun
- September 16, 2012
WORKING mums and dads are struggling to stay sane amid the chaos of modern family life, new studies show.
Supposed sanity-savers such as childcare, non-standard work hours, self-employment and working from home are not making life easier, University of New South Wales experts have found.
Families with both parents working report high levels of stress and time pressures; this is particularly acute among mothers with children in childcare.
The analysis of data from 772 couples from the Australian Bureau of Statistics Time Use Survey also finds family-friendly strategies have been largely ignored by fathers, most of whom work full time.
Susie O'Brien: Life at 40 is now too much hard work
The study, published in the Journal of Population Research, finds women are working more, but devoting just as much time to raising children. And they aren't always getting help from dads on the home front, researchers Lyn Craig and Abigail Powell report.
"As women have moved into the workforce, co-ordinating work and family has become increasingly difficult," Dr Craig says.
The study also shows that although men and women do the same amount of work overall, men do twice as much paid work and women twice the amount of domestic work.
The researchers found self-employed dads might be at home more, but don't actively care for them more than other working dads. And they found those who have "flexi-time" don't end up with more quality family time.
Blog with Susie: Why is being a working parent so hard these days?
Another study of 348 couples, also by doctors Craig and Powell, has found use of external childcare is not associated with a drop in parental care.
Gary Adair, a father of three, said many were stressed.
"It's a mad world ... mums end up being taxi drivers when you throw in school activities and sports," he said.
Working mother Ava Adams, 36, of Aberfeldie, knows she is at her most stressed at the start and end of the day.
After wearing a heart rate monitor for 16 1/2 hours on Friday, the results confirmed her peak stress hits when she is tending to her children, Jack, 4, Emma, 3, and Edward, 1, in the morning and evening.
"I love work so I don't get stressed there unless something ridiculous happens," Ms Adams said.
"If I get overwhelmed it's more likely to be with the children."
Yet Ms Adams is helped by a nanny she shares with her business partner, Antoinette Barallon, four days a week. As owners of Dynamic Duo PR and Events the pair work from each other's homes 8am-4pm every day while the nanny looks after her children and Ms Barallon's children, Sarah, 3, and Jamie, 1.
Australian Sport Performance Network director Kate Veidreyaki said Ms Adams' maximum heart rate - based on subtracting her age from 220 - would be 184bpm and her resting heart rate 60-80bpm.
"Her results tell me that even at her peak, her heart rate is still very low, indicating she is very much in control of her life and activity levels," she said.

Hagstrom Named 2014 Minnesota Book Artist Award Winner
A distinguished professor of art at Carleton since 1984, Hagstrom came to the book arts through a long background in printmaking. His recent work focuses on historical subjects, juxtaposing archival photographs with carefully chosen text to produce work both visually rich and emotionally provocative. His award-winning piece, "Passage," examines the historic tragedy of the slave trade using archival photographs of former slaves combined with hand-drawn diagrams depicting the inhumane conditions aboard slave ships. These images are paired with selected texts from two historical books that were important for building opposition to the slave trade: An Essay on the Impolicy of the African Slave Trade by Thomas Clarkson, 1788, and Biographical Sketches and Interesting Anecdotes of Person of Color by A.Mott, 1837.
Hagstrom teaches printmaking, drawing, art and narrative, and artist's books at Carleton. He received his BA from Hamline University in Saint Paul and his MFA from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. In addition, he studied at the University of Chicago for one year, as well as under S.W. Hayter at Atelier 17 in Paris, France. His prints have been shown in galleries throughout the United States and are featured in numerous museum collections, including the Minneapolis Institute of Arts and the Walker Art Center. Hagstrom's awards and honors include several research, travel, and development grants, as well as prestigious national printmaking awards. He has also received fellowships through the McKnight and Blandin Foundations.

DRAKE/D28/PZ Ophthalmic Glasses
These sunglasses are the perfect accessory on the beach, on the way to the office or in the city. There is only one slight drawback: all the envious looks you will attract. The DRAKE is available in the Edel-Optics online shop in other styles from Smith collections 2015 and 2016.
The frame is specially designed for men. Sporting clear lines, New School Cool meets traditional quality. Eyewear is in. Full rim is extremely popular, because you feel that you get more eyeglass for your money. It is not just about their resilience, but also about the visibility of material and design, which are of the highest quality. The quadratic shape makes the face appear longer, due to its straight outer edges. The frame is, therefore, particularly advantageous for more rounded facial features. Plastic frames like these combine durability and are comfortable to wear. The DRAKE is a very snug fit on the ears and nose. Black is one of the undisputed classics. It can be combined with any outfit and simultaneously radiates elegance and naturalness. The fact that the colour grey matches everything, also applies to sunglass lenses. They suit everything in your wardrobe and never go out of fashion. You can rely on the guaranteed UV400 protection, for all the sunglasses in our shop.
The model has already been ordered and will shortly be back in stock. If you order now, you will get the reduced price and once the goods arrive, we will send you your new Smith on the same day. If you buy at Edel-Optics you get the best price, because "in the sale" is our standard.

There's a fly on my wall
Last year, stand-up comedian Adam Bloom let a camera crew follow him around for a month as part of Channel 4's docusoap, Edinburgh or Bust. Now it's the turn of a new set of hopefuls. They're in for a heck of a ride
Thursday 5 August 1999
The Guardian
Ever had a camera crew follow you around for a month? Thought not. Even these days, with so many channels and so much airtime to fill, producers haven't yet had to resort to pointing a camera at somebody - anybody - and hoping they'll do something worth broadcasting. At least, not very often.
For me, last year proved to be the exception. I was asked to take part in last year's Edinburgh or Bust (a new series covering this year's festival starts tonight, 11.40pm, Channel 4) a six-part fly-on-the-wall documentary that follows half a dozen comedians around Edinburgh in an attempt to capture on video the appalling intensity that performers experience over the four weeks of the Fringe.
The show is filmed and transmitted while the festival is actually running, so people could see an installment and then actually hotfoot it up to Edinburgh to meet the performers. The real question, though, is this: what is it like to spend the whole of August being followed around by a director and a camera crew? In all honesty, it started off as a bit of nightmare. Knowing every word you say could end up being broadcast on national television does tend make you nervous. But taking a show to Edinburgh isn't the most relaxing experience anyway. There are the sleepless nights, being stopped in the streets 30 times a day and the nervous twitch that develops as a result of some kind of misplaced paranoia. Being filmed was a relatively small extra price to pay in return for guaranteeing sell-out shows. And, intriguingly, after the initial nerves wore off, it became rather enjoyable.
If you watch Edinburgh or Bust, do remember one of the fundamental differences between it and other docusoaps: the people in it - professional comedians - are used to being on camera. More than that, they can actually thrive on all the attention. This does cause one problem, which is that if you're constantly showing off, you're not really letting the viewers see the "real" you. Although I wasn't aware of going out of my way to be funny on camera, I think you can reveal much more of yourself to strangers by simply telling them how you feel, rather than cracking an endless stream of jokes. I do think that humour can be a great form of expression. But it is also a defence mechanism.
Possibly the most eerie thing about the whole experience was that I'd get complete strangers coming up to me and asking questions about my private life. For example, Ruth (my girlfriend at the time) was in three episodes, and then left town, so I'd often get people (mainly 17-year-old girls) coming up to me and saying: "Do you miss Ruth?" which felt pretty strange. The weirdest thing was that the more I appeared to miss Ruth, the more they flirted with me. It was as if they only fancied me because they knew I was a good boyfriend. What a paradox that would have created.
Ultimately, you have to remember that when you point a camera at somebody, it fundamentally changes the way they behave. On a couple of occasions, I lost my temper on camera. I could hear a little voice in my head saying "Adam. Be careful." and then immediately afterwards, another voice would tell me: "No! Say what you've got to say." Until then, whenever I'd seen people shouting at each other on documentaries, I'd always think: "Oh, come off it. This is a bit staged. It's not as if they don't know there's a camera in the room." But in the event, if you feel strongly about something, you almost forget about the cameras. In fact, there were times when the cameras even added to the tension. After what I've been through, I reckon that if Jerry Springer ever did a non-televised roadshow, there would be a lot less violence (but at least you'd get to hear the swearing).
Edinburgh or Bust was a great experience for me and I'm hugely looking forward to the new series, although I'm not really familiar with all the performers. I do know that Terry Alderton and Simon Munnery are two of the most gifted people I have ever worked with, and I can tell you with total confidence that the production team have a real knack for capturing the feeling of it all. It really is like it appears on screen...
And this year's wannabes are...
Terry Alderton: Compared to fellow Southender, Lee Evans, probably because he trades on his hyperactive delivery and loose-limbed impressions.
The Divine David: Blackpool born comedian who marries vicious wit to contemporary camp.
Cambridge Footlights: This year, the luvvies of the future are offering up an exuberant revue set on board a cruise ship.
Cathy Dunning: A veteran of the stand up circuit, she brings female wit to the proceedings.
Simon Munnery: A long-time Fringe stalwart, Munnery is probably best known for Alan Parker - Urban Warrior and The League Against Tedium.
Jon Reed: His Edinburgh debut last year with Shelagh Martin got him a Perrier commendation. TV credits include The Loafers.
Adam Bloom is appearing in Edinburgh at The Pleasance at 7pm from 10-30 August. Box office: 0131-556 6550.

Kitta Sjoni is a troubled teen, but not in the usual sense. Plagued by visions of 10th Century Viking marauders is only a tip of the problems she faces. Killing a curse and taming the beast within—that's her goal, but can she survive the test?
Bjornolf Jorgenson, beleaguered by marauder nightmares, is drawn to Kitta, the clone of the girl from his visions. She's the only one who doesn't shy away from his uncontrollable rages, but she draws trouble like a sponge soaks up unmanageable spills. What is his real connection to the spunky teen and can he help her, like she wants to help him before it's too late?
