Citizens voice concern over frac sand industry
More than 250 people attend the Citizens' Frac Sand Summit in Winona
WINONA, Wis. (WKBT) - The number of frac sand mines in the area has exploded in recent years, but resident have some concerns about the growing industry.
Frac sand mining offers an economic advantage to our area, from creating more jobs to putting money back into the local economy. It is no secret there are profits to be made, but concerned citizens want to know at what cost to them.
"I'm a life-long resident and my family has been in Houston County for 148 years," said Marilyn Frauenkronbayer, a resident of Minnesota. She grew up on a farm that has been passed down from generation to generation.
"It's a century farm. Our relatives have lived on that farm for well over 100 years," said Frauenkronbayer.
A proposed frac sand mine in a neighboring county brought her to the Citizens' Frac Sand Summit in Winona on Saturday to get more information about the growing business. Like other residents there, she's got some questions.24001372
"There is grave concern regarding health issues with particulate matter," said Frauenkronbayer. "It isn't what you think of as sand like in a child's sandbox. These are one-hundredth the diameter of a human hair, so you can't see them."
Steven Schild, a resident of Winona, brings up another major concern.
"This industry could do damage, irreparable damage, to the very nature of this very special place," said Schild. "Once it is gone, it's gone."
Schild said the industry doesn't have enough regulation.
"This is such a new, complicated and multi-faceted issue that the government and current regulations are not set up to adequately deal with the way that this industry goes across jurisdictions," said Schild.
Commissioner John Linc Stine with the Pollution Control Agency in Minnesota said he has a responsibility to implement the laws of the state.
"On a personal level, I can feel for these people who are concerned about their property and the legacy of their land," said Linc Stine.
However, it is also his job to work on behalf of everyone in Minnesota.
"Including the people who have a business to operate and an economy to grow," said Linc Stine.
He agrees more research needs to be done.
"Let's talk about the accumulative and holistic impact on an area before decisions are made," said Linc Stine.
Giving Frauenkronbayer more time to prepare for what lies ahead.
"We have eight generations that have been blessed to live in Houston County and we would like to see the generations to come have that opportunity to enjoy what we have as well," said Frauenkronbayer.
For the past two years people in southeastern Minnesota have been hearing from companies who want to buy their land for new frac sand mines. However, researchers said more testing needs to be done to make sure it is safe for everyone in the long run.
Right now there are 11 proposed frac sand mining sites in southeastern Minnesota.

I shared with you yesterday at agenda review that New Hanover County expects to lose $300,000 weekly in revenue because of the federal government shutdown. Those lost revenues come in the form of direct benefit reductions and are currently isolated to the Department of Social Services. In the near term or by month's end the loss of revenue may grow to other department programs – most specifically known as of this date is the Women, Infants & Children (WIC) program.
In response to lost funding, the administration is moving forward with the following reduction plan, effective immediately, to generate the necessary weekly reduction of $300,000:
· Federally funded adult day care services will be eliminated;
· Federally funded social services contracts will be suspended;
· Federally funded child day care services will be eliminated;
· All vacant positions in the general fund will be frozen;
· All capital outlay purchases will be suspended for 90 days.
Clearly, the board can and may choose to override this plan. However, that should be done via a budget amendment to make dollars available.
As noted yesterday, there are real and direct impacts to the community by following this plan. These are not easy actions that we're taking, but they are the consequence of Congress' inability to pass a federal budget.
Impacts include:
· 16 adults receiving adult day care service will need to resort to long term care placement. These 16 adults receive care currently at Elderhaus and Adult Day Services.
· 3 service contracts with providers are suspended;
o 16 families and children receiving intensive in-home services via the Methodist Home for Children will be ended;
o 105 child and family mediations for families involved with child protective services will be ended
o 20 unemployed persons receiving job skill development and employment search services via Phoenix Employment Ministry will be ended.
· 1,588 child care subsidies for families will be ended, including 100 children in foster care. 84 child care facilities will lose this revenue.
This represents our first stop-loss plan with the predictable consequences of its implementation. We will revisit on a daily basis the elements in our plan, we will watch closely Congress' progress, and above all we will keep the board apprised of what we learn, what we change, and what we implement.
Thank you in advance for your support of these difficult but necessary administrative actions.
Chris C.

Manny Ramirez has deal with Taiwanese team; he arrives Monday
Manny becomes the biggest name ever to play for Taiwan
Manny Ramirez has agreed to sign with the EDA Rhinos in Taiwan, and is on his way to Kaohsiung, Taiwan. His plane will touch down Monday in Tawan.
Ramirez enjoyed playing exhibition games in Taiwan with the Dodgers in 2010, and is going for the love the game and a chance to perhaps parlay his time in Taiwan into a job in Japan or back in Major League Baseball.
The agreement was confirmed by Ramirez's agent, Barry Praver of Praver Shapiro Sports Agency.
Ramirez becomes the highest profile player to play in Taiwan. Arguably the greatest right-handed hitter in MLB history, Ramirez batted .312 and hit 555 home runs while starring for the Indians, Red Sox and Dodgers. He went to spring training with the A's in 2012 and played in the minors for them.
Ramirez batted .302 playing for Oakland's Triple-A affiliate, but was released.
He last played in the majors in 2011 with the Tampa Bay Rays, going one for 17 before being suspended for PEDs. He hit .298 with the Dodgers and White Sox in 2010.
He has been working out this winter near his South Florida home in hope for another opportunity.
Ramirez has made more than $200 million in his career. He took the job because he loves to play and wants to continue his career. Professional players in Taiwan generally make very little money.
Enrique Rojas first reported Ramirez would go to Taiwan if he couldn't land a job in the majors.

Clean the spot well and make sure it hasn't grown in size or become infected. If not, you can apply a topical spray to the bite. I personally like to use PETfection Hot Spots/Wound Spray for any bites or cuts. It is organic and all natural. Safe to use and will help stop the itching/stinging/burning sensation along with reducing any inflammation. They also make a fantastic Bug Spray as well you can use! Hope this helps, good luck!

Panel II of a Hearing of the Health Subcommittee of the House Energy and Commerce Committee - Drug Safety Provisions of the Food and Drug Administration Globalization Act Discussion Draft Legislation
REP. PALLONE: And we're going to move to the second panel. Now let me explain that we expect votes about 12:15 so I'd like the second panel to come forward. If the votes are a called, then we won't complete your opening statements and, you know, we'll just complete them when we come back, and then do the questions as well. But we're going to try to move forward with the second panel and hopefully complete at least the opening statements before you -- before we have the votes. So if you could all come forward please.
As you can see, we have a large number. It's hard to squeeze in. We'll do the best we can. And let me welcome all of you and go from my left to right to introduce each of you.
First, on my left is Dr. William K. Hubbard, senior adviser to the Coalition for a Stronger FDA. And then next to him is Ms. Lori Reilly, who is vice president of policy for PhRMA, the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America. And then next to her we have one of our colleagues, Congressman Greenwood, who is now president and CEO of the Biotechnology Industry Organization. Thanks for being here today.
And next to Jim Greenwood is Ms. Christine Mundkur, who's chief executive officer of Barr Laboratories. And then we have Mr. Ron Bone, who's senior vice president, distribution support, for McKesson Corporation out of San Francisco, California; and then Mr. Kevin Nicholson, who is both a doctor and -- well, a Ph.D. and a lawyer -- that's an interesting combination -- vice president for pharmacy regulatory affairs for the National Association of Chain Drug Stores. And then last is Ms. Ami Gadhia, who's policy counsel for the Consumers Union.
As I said before, we have five-minute opening statements. Those statements will become part of the hearing record. Each witness may, at the discretion of the committee, submit additional brief and pertinent statements in writing for inclusion in the record. And we'll start with Mr. Hubbard
REP. PALLONE: Thank you, Ms. Gadhia. And thank you, all the panel.
We'll start taking questions, and I'll recognize myself for five minutes for questions.
I wanted to start with Mr. Hubbard. In your testimony, you mentioned the heparin incident. Obviously that's a grave concern to us and should never -- obviously we don't want it to happen again. In some of the meetings we've had with pharmaceutical manufacturers, they've pointed out that regardless of increased inspections, we currently do not have the technological capabilities to actually prevent similar incidents as the heparin case.
And actually, in her testimony on Tuesday, Dr. Woodcock pointed out that, and I quote, "conventional laboratory testing did not identify the contaminant" and that the agency had to develop a new test. But they had to know what they were looking for something that shouldn't have been there.
So basically the way I understand it, Mr. Hubbard, the industry is saying that they can't test for unknowns that are unknown. They've got to have some idea of what they're looking for. So is it possible to screen drugs and biologics for unknown contaminants? And, if not, what else can be done to ensure that the drugs sold to the American people are truly pure and safe?
MR. HUBBARD: Well, it's certainly difficult to look for something that shouldn't be there. And we saw it with melamine last year. But I think this case points up the fact that we've got to find a way, because if people can do this kind of contamination so easily, save so much money and get it into our system without being caught, there has to be a way.
If widespread use of capillary electrophoresis or these other sophisticated technologies are going to be difficult, it may have to be -- so be it. But I would hope that you'd have a magnitude of scale that if you had more testing along these lines that you would be able to have some cost savings.
Plus if FDA is regulating more and enforcing its GMTs, you're going to presumably raise the standards generally and deter these folks anyway. And so you're going to have your supply chain where whoever put that chondroitin in at some point will know there are more people looking, there's more testing, there's more overall quality assurance.
So I think you've got the two cases. You've got a stronger system and perhaps some testing. Maybe you don't need to test everything, but I think that some testing is probably going to have to be necessary.
REP. PALLONE: No, I appreciate it. I understand what you're saying, which is that, you know, we have to try to check things through the chain and set up standards. It's not just a question of a test at the end. But at the same time, we have to try to maybe invest in new testing methods too. You just can't give up.
Let me ask Ms. Gadhia. I wanted to ask you a question about the country-of-origin labeling. You mentioned it. And, of course, a number of the other panelists voiced their concerns about country-of- origin labeling. The most common argument we've heard is that knowing what country the drug was made in or where the ingredients came from would only make consumers more worried and confused about the products they're purchasing.
Is this country-of-origin labeling important? And why? And, you know, what would you say about the industry's concerns?
MS. GADHIA: Well, I understand. And I've heard those concerns. Generally speaking, the approach that we take is that consumers are better served by more information rather than less. And, in fact, we think that the internal customers within the supply chain system would also be served by the internal information on the packaging or on what have you, letting them know where the product is from.
The way that things like herapin, for example, work, it's not something that the consumer takes off the shelf themselves. It's something that the purchasing manager within a hospital would buy, or something like that. And we'd like to see the awareness of potential red flags or danger or safety issues to go to those consumers, so to speak, as well. So we think that everyone across the board would be better served by that kind of information.
REP. PALLONE: Okay.
I wanted to ask Mr. Bone one more question here. You said that McKesson, I guess, has the electronic tracking system, right? You mentioned that. And you mentioned in your testimony the need for interoperable technologies to track and trace pharmaceuticals across the supply chain.
We've heard today about concerns with respect to technology -- at least in its current state, to be able to actually accomplish what's set forth in the bill that we have. And I know that the term "interoperability" is used often with respect to health information technology and EHRs, yet really doesn't mean that the systems truly are interoperable.
So, I guess what I wanted to ask you -- you know, I know that even like in hospitals, because I visit them all the time, they struggle to connect with other providers in the region or the nation. And a lot of times the technologies don't work the way they're supposed to. There are significant concerns about radio frequency identification, and, in your opinion, is the technology there yet? And are you confident that if each pharmacy purchased a different system your suppliers will be able to integrate seamlessly with each other?
Just basically tell me what McKesson is doing to ensure that their systems are truly able to connect seamlessly with all other technology manufacturers out there. You should know we're probably going to deal -- you know, we're going to deal with a larger HIT bill in this subcommittee too, in the next few weeks, so, obviously, this is of concern. If you want to just comment, if you will?
MR. BONE: So, what's happening in the industry -- and I do serve on two leadership groups that are working on the standard for track- and-trace, both domestically and internationally -- so, we're building the backbone for those standards. They are not specific in saying that you have to do it precisely this way, meaning you have to use RFID. There are other ways that you can communicate that information, and one of those is using a bar code. We have a bar code that's more robust, it's a 2D bar code that a number of manufacturers are looking at.
In the work that we've done so far in the standard-setting, we actually are recommending that if an RFID chip is on that, that it be backed up with a bar code. That means that you would have -- for those who say, I'm not technologically sophisticated to be able to do that, and, quite frankly, I think reader costs, et cetera, are going to come down dramatically, but people (who ?) could say that at this juncture -- that they would have something more akin to what they're using today, which is a linear bar code.
Now this is a bar code, kind of, on steroids. It's a more sophisticated one because we have to have more information on it. We're working on that. There's manufacturers that are experimenting with that piece. We've actually been moving RFID product for over two years now -- almost three years, where we've been testing with some manufacturers on that piece.
So there is more work to be done. That's why I like the timing of this bill, because it does give us the time to complete the standards work that we're doing, which we intend to get done later on in this year, first part of next year, which fits in the timing that you have here. And we're also trying to do it on an international basis. Because many of the manufacturers are international-based, we feel that that's important to expand that scope. But, for us, what's most important is one standard for the nation.
REP. PALLONE: Do you think you can -- I mean, I just want to restate the question. Do you think that, with respect to the technology, you will be able to actually accomplish what's set forth in the bill? I'm talking about the Buyer-Matheson bill, obviously.
MR. BONE: That's correct. That's correct -- yes, we do.
REP. PALLONE: Okay, thank you.
Mr. Buyer.
REP. PALLONE: I'm going to start dreaming track-and-trace here tonight with all the track-and-trace back and forth.
Thank you all. We certainly appreciate your testimony. And obviously, this is the second -- we're actually going to have another hearing on this bill, I think next week, dealing with the cosmetics and the medical devices.
But all your testimony has been very helpful.
MR. : (Off mike.)
REP. PALLONE: What's that?
Oh, yeah! The members -- well, let me mention that: The members can submit additional questions for the record to be answered by you. And basically, we get those questions submitted to the clerk within the next 10 days. So within 10 days or so, the clerk will notify your offices that you may have written questions. And we'd certainly ask you to respond to those.
REP. BUYER: Mr. Chairman, I'd like to thank you for your courtesy today, not only to do your draft bill, but to take into consideration Mr. Matheson and my bill.
REP. PALLONE: No --
REP. BUYER: I appreciate it.
REP. BUYER: You're welcome. It's very important and I'm glad that we had a good discussion about it.
So thank you again.
And without objection, the meeting of the subcommittee is adjourned. (Sounds gavel.)

All Eye On Fed Minutes - Economic Highlights
Stocks are indicated to start today's session modestly in the red. But they have recouped pretty much all of the recent losses in the last few sessions, putting the broad indexes on the cusp of new all-time highs. The Fed remains in the spotlight today, with minutes of its last meeting coming out later this afternoon and the annual Jackson Hole meeting getting underway tomorrow.
The risk in today's Fed minutes center on the market's dovish expectations from the Fed; investors aren't expecting the minutes to show any new discussion that would indicate that the members may be willing to start the QE tightening process earlier than currently expected. The July 29-30 meeting whose minutes are coming out this afternoon resulted in another $10 billion cut to its bond purchases, putting the Fed on track to end the QE program by October. The consensus view is that the Fed will start raising interest rates in July 2015.
But there is a big divergence in the market with respect to the pace of interest rate normalization following the first rate hike. A still small — but growing — segment of the market believes that the Fed will take a lot longer to normalize rates than was the case in prior cycles. Proponents of this view believe that the Fed could take a six month or even a year-long hiatus from further rate hikes after the initial rate increase.
A story in today's Wall Street Journal goes into some detail about this narrative, which is in-line with former Treasury Secretary Larry Summer's interest rate views. We certainly see this debate show up in market interest rates, with benchmark treasury bond yields continuing to go down despite growing clarity about the coming end to the QE program and expectations of the first rate hike next summer. It will be interesting to see how the market interprets comments from Fed officials at the Jackson Hole conclave that gets underway tomorrow.
In corporate news, Lowe's (NYSE: LOW) results came short of expectations, spotlighting once again why its stock has lagged Home Depot's (NYSE: HD). The weak earnings report from Target (NYSE: TGT) this morning wasn't that surprising given the lingering effects of the data-breach issue, which had prompted it to come out with a warning a few weeks back. But the extent of the negative guidance for the rest of the year is a big disappointment that will keep the stock under pressure in today's session. Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ) will be coming out with Q2 results after the close today.

Lollipop hold is great for a round, known diameter bulleye at an exact known range but is an absolutely horrible sight hold for anything else. It's a crime that some folks train people to shoot this way. Point of impact is an arbitrary distance above the front sight, the distance being determined by the bullseye diameter.
I've never seen a primary source that HK is setup to "shoot the dot", the white dot on the front sight. They may be. (I don't consider M4Carbine dot Net to be a primary source.) If anyone has some time I guess we could search the .PDF version of the HK manual and see what's there.
My P2000SK (and all my HKs) shoot point of aim. Tip of the front sight (maybe the dot) is where the bullet will imapct.
My P2000SK trigger pull was so hard in standard LEM I was shooting left too. Reduced the pull to about 5.5 pounds and she's dead on. Years of 4.5 pound M1911s didn't help my trigger control with hard pulls.

OEBT in Florida tap water
So I have about 6 OEBT in my 20g Tank right now using straight tap water. I found some on sale for 4.50 for blues not blonde's and ordered a few more. Is anyone else had success keeping them in our local water?
My tank sits at Ph:7 Gh:8 Kh:4 TDS:200 Temp:72
I will post a picture when they get in try to track how they do.
So got them in the mail today and acclimating. I ordered 10 and got 15 so its really sweet deal. Plus I got some plants for free.
The packing was really good even down here in Florida the water was still cool to the touch. And their color looks great really nice blue and only 2 blondes.
You're braver than it am my water is about 100 tds higher than yours.
I have kept them before but was using Fluval Shrimp Stratum substrate which lowers the PH from 7.6 to about 6.8 dont know my tds tho
So my OEBT are now berried as of the 1st lol. I did just purchase Borneowild Stout and Shield so hope that helps with survival rate.
Where did you order the shrimp from by chance??
I purchased them on aquabid
In general I would say TDS sounds high. You could mix your tap water with RO to lower it a bit. But if they are berried don't worry about it :)
I'm moving homes soon so I went to the new house were buying and tested the water and very different. So I made the move to RO water save headaches in the future lol.
Since I have to reset tank during move I figured I try azoo plant grower substrate and see how tigers like it.
Update: No dead shrimp since I got them so that's a big plus and now I have 3 berried females so pumped about that.
The two females just hangout on their own away from the pack lol

Samir P. Bhatt, President
Homeneeds, Inc.

Bothell, Washington 98021
Dear Mr. Bhatt:
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) conducted an inspection of your food storage and repacking facility located at 14148 NE 190th Street, Suite 103, Woodinville, Washington, from June 20 through July 8, 2011. During the inspection, FDA investigators documented serious violations of FDA's Current Good Manufacturing Practice regulation for manufacturing, packing, or holding human food, Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 110 (21 CFR Part 110). The inspection revealed that food stored at your facility is adulterated within the meaning of Section 402(a)(4) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) [21 U.S.C. § 342(a)(4)] in that the food products have been prepared, packed, or held under insanitary conditions whereby they may have become contaminated with filth, or whereby they may have been rendered injurious to health. You may find the Act and its implementing regulations through links on FDA's web page at www.fda.gov.
FDA's laboratory tests of samples collected from your warehouse and various lots of food product confirmed the findings of rodent excreta pellets (REPs), rodent hair, and rodent urine stained and gnawed packaging throughout your facility.
Your significant violations are as follows:
1. You failed to take effective measures to exclude pests from the processing areas and protect against the contamination of food on the premises per 21 CFR 110.35(c). The investigators observed physical evidence of rodent activity throughout the facility including live and dead rodents, REPs, rodent gnaw holes, rodent urine stains, and live flies at various times on multiple days of the inspection. Specifically,
a. Live rodents:
i. At least two live rodents were observed inside packages of puffed rice cereal along the north wall adjacent to the employee restroom;
ii. One live rodent in a nest in the corner, southeast quadrant of the warehouse adjacent to the loading dock and the main entrance door (observed June 20, 21, 22, and 24, 2011). The rodent was located within four feet of the retail spice and soup mixes being stored on the central wall and within six feet of the repacking station where lentils and rice were being stored for future processing;
iii. One live rodent in the ceiling area running along pipes on the northeast quadrant north wall in the area above the pallet stacked with large bags of puffed rice and adjacent to the toilet facility (observed June 21, 2011);
iv. One live rodent in the ceiling area, northeast quadrant above the storage racks which line the central wall (observed June 21 and 24, 2011);
v. One live rodent among the floor pallets stored in front of the storage racks on the northeast quadrant east wall (observed June 20, 2011);
vi. One live rodent running across open floor space toward a pallet of food from the southeast quadrant central wall toward the south perimeter wall (observed June 27, 2011);

viii. One live rodent was stuck on a glue board next to the bookshelf in the middle of the warehouse.
b. Dead rodents:
i. A dead and partially decomposed rodent carcass was observed in the northwest corner of the warehouse at the junction of the north and west perimeter walls and next to the west exit door (observed June 20, 2011);

iii. Green cardamom cases on a pallet in front of industrial shelving racks along the east wall of the northeast quadrant exhibited at least 39 rodent urine stains covering the surface of the corrugated case.
e. Rodent gnawing:
i. A case of mango flavored juice boxes on a pallet in front of the industrial shelving racks along the east wall of the northeast quadrant had a rodent gnaw hole approximately three inches in diameter and one box had a rodent gnaw hole with juice leaking from the hole;
ii. Roasted coriander seeds located on a floor pallet in front of the north perimeter wall storage racks in the northwest quadrant of the warehouse had rodent gnaw holes which penetrated the outside casing material, inside plastic package wrapping, and into the food;
iii. A case of roasted vermicelli on a pallet on the second tier of industrial shelving racks in the southwest corner of the northeast quadrant exhibited at least 13 rodent gnaw holes; the largest being five inches by three inches which penetrated the outer casing, and the inner individual plastic packaging to the exposed vermicelli noodles;
iv. Chappati flour atta, 20 lb. paper bags stacked on a pallet located by the north perimeter wall, exhibited numerous rodent gnaw holes as large as three inches in diameter which were gnawed through the outer paper bag and into the exposed flour inside;
v. Whole wheat atta exhibited rodent gnaw holes as large as three inches by four inches through the outer brown corrugated box and two holes as large as three inches in diameter through the plastic flour bag into the exposed flour;
vi. (b)(4) Chappati flour exhibited at least three rodent gnaw holes in the multi-layer paper sack packaging. The holes were as large as two inches in diameter and had urine stains within two inches of a rodent gnaw hole;
vii. Instant Pesarattu Mix on the industrial shelving racks along the north wall of the southeast quadrant exhibited a rodent gnaw hole three inches by four inches on the top of the cardboard box. A rodent gnaw hole one inch in diameter was penetrating the individual serving foil pouch to the exposed spices inside; and
viii. Veg Kadhai, Pav Bhaji, and Veg Jalfrezi flavored spice mix had rodent gnaw holes penetrating the cardboard boxes and some of the enclosed foil pouches.
f. Live flies were flying near the trash receptacle located in the northwest quadrant toward the center of the warehouse (observed June 20, 21 and 22, 2011).
2. You failed to provide adequate screening or other protection against pests as required by 21 CFR 110.20(b)(7). Specifically,
a. Along the west and south interior perimeter walls, the solid plywood walls extend only approximately 12 feet high. Above the plywood there is wire mesh with a two inch by two inch grid approximately four feet high. Above the wire mesh there is a gap of approximately 15 feet in height to the ceiling. The 15 foot gap extends the full length, approximately 70 feet, of the west perimeter wall and approximately 25 feet along the south wall. Two of the dock bay doors of the adjoining business were propped open during the inspection; and
b. The main entrance door located at the dock bay along the southeast quadrant, east wall exhibited a one inch gap along the width of the threshold and a one inch gap at the opening of the door that extends from the base up the side 24 inches.
3. You failed to have the plant constructed in such a manner as to allow walls to be adequately cleaned and kept clean and in good repair, and failed to provide adequate spacing in aisles or working spaces between equipment and walls as required by 21 CFR 110.20(b)(4). Storage racks, stored old equipment, floor pallets, and food items were stored in a manner that precludes cleaning and monitoring for pest activity and in a manner which creates a pest harborage condition. Specifically,
a. Along the east and south central walls of the northeast quadrant the yellow insulation appeared jagged as if portions were torn off. The insulation sheet was also separating from the wall;
b. On the south perimeter wall in the southeast quadrant behind the second tier of the storage rack was a section of insulation approximately four feet wide by four feet high that was detached from the wall and hanging over the remaining attached portion below. The detached portion appeared dingy brown in color instead of bright yellow like the surrounding attached insulation. At floor level in the same section of the storage rack, we observed 18 holes in the insulation, the largest measuring 24 inches high by five inches at the widest part;
c. The storage racks which line the perimeter walls on the south, west, north, east, and central walls are within three inches of the wall. Boxes stored at floor level under the storage racks are stored directly on the floor, with some of the boxes pushed back to the wall; and
d. Pallets stored on the floor in front of the north wall, south wall, southwest corner, east wall, and the corner by the east wall and central wall junction on the north side were stored directly adjacent to one another.
4. You failed to convey, store, and dispose of rubbish as to minimize the potential for the waste becoming an attractant and harborage or breeding place for pests, and protect against contamination of food, food contact surfaces, water supplies, and ground surfaces, as required by 21 CFR 110.37(f). Specifically, the trash receptacle located in the center of the warehouse was overflowing with garbage. On the top of the pile of garbage was observed two bags of flour with large rodent gnaw holes through the paper flour bag, and exposed flour falling out of the gnawed opening.
5. You failed to properly store finished food under conditions that will protect against physical contamination, as well as against deterioration of the food and container, as required by 21 CFR 110.93. Specifically, an open bulk-sized (approximately 40 lb.) flexible plastic bag with exposed yellow lentils was on the repacking table and an open plastic bag of Sona Masoori rice, shredded and open on the top, exposing the rice inside, was on the floor next to the repacking table. Old restaurant type equipment covered with a thick layer of dust and grime was stored within eight feet of the repacking table.
6. You failed to properly store equipment and remove litter and waste that may constitute an attractant, breeding place, or harborage area for pests, within the immediate vicinity of the plant buildings or structures as required by 21 CFR 110.20(a)(1). Specifically,
a. On June 20, 21, 22, and 23, 2011, we observed on the outside of the building approximately 26 pallets, an overflowing trash receptacle, display materials, a banana peel, and paper and plastic debris lining the south face of the northeast exterior building wall and extending approximately 15 feet along the wall;
b. Old unused restaurant type equipment including deli display cases, videos, chairs, and a commercial convection oven was stored within eight feet of the repacking table in the southeast corner of the warehouse next to the loading dock bay in the southeast quadrant, stacked against the south wall. The stored old equipment extended six feet along the south wall and out into the dock area approximately five feet. The equipment was covered with a thick layer of dirt, dust, and grime, and was stored within six inches of foods stored on the storage racks that lined the south wall, 18 inches from food stored on floor pallets, and 18 inches from bags of flour and other food items stored on the dock platform; and
c. The food weighing scale on the repacking table was covered with old food, dirt, and grime.
7. You failed to maintain buildings, fixtures, or other physical facilities in a sanitary condition as required by 21 CFR 110.35(a). We observed the floors, storage shelves, employee break area, and office area to have an accumulation of dirt, refuse, REPs and food spills. Specifically,
a. The employee break area located in the northeast quadrant by the employee restroom had countertops and table tops with an old accumulation of caked on food spills and grime. Open food containers, soiled dishware, used empty paper beverage cups, debris, and an open trash receptacle were visible; and
b. On the bookshelf by the office area were used beverage cups, and a layer of dust and grime.
We acknowledge receipt on July 25, 2011, of your firm's written response dated July 18, 2011, to the FDA-483, Inspectional Observations, issued to you at the close of the inspection. However, we were unable to properly evaluate your response since you did not provide any documentation of your implemented corrections, for instance, photographs of the improvements made to the building, or invoices of any new equipment or materials purchased. Your response did not address how you will remove the active rodent infestation in your facility and prevent re-infestation.
The above items are not intended to be an all-inclusive list of the violations at your facility. It is your responsibility to ensure compliance with the applicable laws and regulations administered by FDA. You should take prompt action to correct these violations. Failure to do so may result in regulatory action being initiated by the FDA without further notice. These actions include, but are not limited to, seizure and/or injunction.
You should respond in writing within fifteen (15) working days of receipt of this letter describing the specific steps you have taken to correct the noted violations and to prevent recurrence. You should include in your response any documentation or other useful information that would assist us in evaluating your corrections. If corrective action cannot be completed within 15 working days, state the reason for the delay and the time within which the corrections will be completed.
Please send your reply to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Attention: Patricia A. Pinkerton, Compliance Officer, 22201 23rd Drive SE, Bothell, Washington 98021-4421. If you have questions regarding any issues in this letter, please contact Patricia Pinkerton at 425-483-4926.

CSS Media Queries are now a web standard
On 20, Jun 2012 | No Comments | In Web Design | By Ariel Fuggini
The World Wide Web consortium (W3C) has yesterday given the definitive thumbs-up to CSS Media Queries, those magical lines of CSS code that make responsive web design possible.
CSS Media Queries have been available for a while now, and even though they have been in use for a long time, not only for responsive web design but also for creating printer-ready pages, the fact that the W3C has included them in their recommendations means a lot to web designers: Web Browsers will now have to support them.

New year, new website!
On 23, Apr 2012 | One Comment | In Miscellaneous | By Ariel Fuggini
After a long time from launching the last version of our website (3 years) we decided it was time for a change. We have been starting and stopping the redesign process so many times I lost count! And it's just that we've been putting so much effort and time in deliverying the best quality to our clients, that we kept postponing our own needs for a fresh new look.
Now here we are! New website, new look. This time we decided to put focus on our portfolio, therefore we selected some of the best pieces we've worked on the last 10 years.
We went responsive
Another new incorporation is responsiveness. Our website now adapts to smaller screens using mediaqueries, so stay tuned from your Smart Phone and Tablet!
Upcoming incorporations
We have more new additions, some of which are:
- A more detailed list of our services
- Better Request a Quote form
- More detailed information on each project in our portfolio
- Testimonials from happy clients
- And more!
We hope you like our site so far and come back soon!

Bucks' guard continues to improve
Through tireless work, Michael Redd has separated himself from many of his peers in clutch situations.
Redd appeared in only six games during that season, but Terry Stotts, Mike Thibault, Don Newman, Ron Adams and Tim Grgurich (Milwaukee's assistants at the time) all told me they had never had a player work so hard to get better. Redd's games were his individual workout sessions and practices on non-game days.
Most young players will do the extra work necessary that is required to stay in the NBA and get better. Otherwise, they don't last long. But in many cases, assistants have to drag the player onto the court, especially after the first three months. Redd always wanted to do more.

Group hires lawyer to fight wetlands regs
A group of about a dozen Warren residents who believe the the town is going too far with changes to its wetlands ordinances have hired an attorney in hopes of blocking them.
The group of 14 residents, led by former planning board member John Tattrie and Schoolhouse Road resident John Saviano, said they have hired attorney Robert Healey to represent them as the town moves forward. Mr. Tattrie said the group's goal "is to stop" changes to wetlands ordinances that they say could strip property owners of their rights.
"We don't want to see this change at all," Mr. Tattrie said. "We can't take a chance on it."
The proposed changes have been debated and tweaked for several months after first being introduced last year by town planner Caroline Wells. They would increase Warren's buffer zone for all development adjacent to wetlands and the water from the current 50 feet to 100 feet. Apart from protecting valuable wetlands and preventing questionable development, the regulations will help protect the town's drinking water, as well as cutting down harmful runoff into the waters that surround Warren, she said.
Apart from the buffer change, the regulations would also mandate that Warren's residents, particularly in unsewered areas of Touisset and the Highlands, use nitrogen-reducing systems to treat their wastewater and build new systems no closer than 150 feet from wetlands, water bodies and streams.
Ms. Wells suggested the 100-foot buffer several months ago during ongoing negotiations with DEM on the nitrogen issue, and she said the 100-foot threshold is based on DEM's "best management practices" and is also a buffer used in many towns in Massachusetts, and several in Rhode Island. The plan has drawn strong support from the Kickemuit River Council and Save The Bay.
But planning board members and close to a dozen audience members at January's meeting questioned the documentation behind some of the town's claims at last month's meeting, saying they didn't have enough information to support a two-fold increase in the town's development buffer.
The problem, several said, is that the 100-foot rule would apply to all wetlands in town, regardless of their location, sensitivity and susceptibility to pollution from nearby sources.
"It seems like this is one size fits all," board member Brandt Heckert said. "I would say that in some cases it's too much, and in other's it's not enough."
"What I would like to see is a process that is not onerous," chairman Fred Massie said. "In some cases, if we're treating some wetlands as if they're all the same, that would be onerous."
That's what Mr. Tattrie said he and others want to see. He said he worries that passing the changes could harm the value of his property and others'. Mr. Saviano, who lives on Schoolhouse Road, said he would be personally harmed by the changes as they would cut down on the economic viability of his plan to build several house lots on wetlands-facing land he bought several years ago.
"It would be an economic hardship," he said.
The planning board did not discuss the regulations at Monday night's meeting, but last month asked that the 100-foot buffer be re-examined by the town before their next meeting. The board is expected to broach the subject again at its March meeting and until then, Ms. Wells said she will continue to work with DEM to develop regulations that protect the town and satisfy the DEM's requirements.
The blog was nicely briefed about Group hires lawyer to fight wetlands regs.

Taught In Massage Therapy
Since they always teach medicinal and homegrown ideas I have used Cayenne Pepper Powder for a sore throat. You get some hot/warm water and mix the powder in, according to how much of the heat/spice you can take. And sip it. It burns your throat and also the heat soothes and kills any bacteria that is starting. I have been doing this for 10 years and it works every time. It's also good for stuffy noses or sinus problems. Consult with your doctor if you have ulcers or aren't able to have spicy/hot herbs or foods.

Corruptibility of the flesh 1 Digital photograph, dimensions variable, 2012.
I make and modify camera lenses with gelatin. I make my own lenses because this allows me to more intimately understand what lenses are and how they work. Because our eyes' lenses are made from gelatinous substances including collagen, I thought it appropriate to make camera lenses from collagen. Sitting out for a few weeks, this lens was colonized by a microorganism.

tv programs The Top Ten Almost-Gay TV Couples f p @
What are the best gay couples on TV? Or minimum, what are some of the famous gay couples on TV? There are a few to choose from, some you may have suspected, others you may not have. Take a look at these 10 examples and you may be surprised who is on this list.
The Odd Couple: Felix and Oscar. 1970 to 1975 on ABC. It starred Tony Randall as Felix Unger and Jack Klugman as Oscar Madison.
Here are the facts: Felix and Oscar are two divorced men. Felix is a neat freak while Oscar is sloppy and casual. They share the same apartment. Their different lifestyles inevitably lead to some conflicts and canned laughs...and they are the gayest couple you will ever see on TV.
Frankly, it's shocking that by the 70s the notion of two men one prissy as hell, one with failed heterosexual relationships, living together in a Manhattan apartment didn't ring any queer bells at the network.
I mean really...it doesn't get any gayer than this folks.

Bert and Ernie
Bert and Ernie: two roommates on the long-running children's show Sesame Street. They are the Muppets version of the Odd Couple, and the sweetest almost gay couple you'll ever meet.
Well, Ernie was anyway; Bert was kind of a moody queen most of the time. And yes, I know they show them sleeping in separate beds, but Lucy and Ricky slept in separate beds too, and somehow we ended up having a little Ricky over on that show.
I say there was an equal amount of lovin'. Was Sesame Street located in Greenwich Village maybe?
My Two Dads: Michael and Joey. 1987 to 1990 on NBC. Staci Keanan, Paul Reiser and Greg Evigan.
The premise goes as follows: A single mother dies leaving her daughter parentless. She never knew who the real father of her child was, so the two guys move in together and raise the child together. Yeah...riiiiiight!
This one is so obvious it hurts. So obvious even that 12 year old version of me just assumed this was a show about gay parents when it premiered. But no, the producers had to concoct some bulls**t story about a dead mom that we never see.
Strangely enough, Right Wing Christians did not protest this show as being immoral or "bad for the child". So two men raising a child together is only bad for the kid if they're having sex behind closed doors?

Aired from 1977 to 1984 on ABC. Jack Tripper (John Ritter) pretended to be gay so he could room with two girls, but was secretly a p***y hound along with his equally girl obsessed friend Larry Dallas (Richard Kline).
Or were they?
It seems Larry was more often than not very concerned with Jack's penis and where he was sticking it that night.
Were Jack and Larry really gettin' it on? It was the 70s after all.
Besides, what straight bar would be called the Regal Beagle?

They made the ladies bathroom their office, so no man could come between them, for God's sake.

Bosom Buddies: Kip and Henry. 1980 to 1982 on ABC. Tom Hanks as Kip Wilson/Buffy and Peter Scolari as Henry Desmond/Hildegarde.
After their own apartment is demolished, two men disguise themselves as women in order to live in the dirt cheap women-only Susan B. Anthony Hotel. So two single guys in New York deciding to live as drag queens instead of, I don't know, finding cheaper accommodations elsewhere.
In any event, I think there was some serious Ki Ki going on at the Susan B. (for the uninformed: Ki Ki, pronounced K-eye K-eye, is when two drag queens have sex. I'm here to spread the knowledge.)
Of course, Tom Hanks went on to super stardom, and Peter Scolari went on to resentment. I like to think the character Hanks played in Philiadelphia was the older, more comfortable-with-himself version of his Bosom Buddies character Kip.

See a pattern here? Divorce, Greenwich Village...this is way too easy.
It's what we refer to today as "Meridith Baxter Birney Syndrome" or "LLL" Late in Life Lesbian. You know the type: married to a man (usually at a young age), ugly divorce, realizing they like women at about age 40.
Sure they weren't formally known as lesbians on the show, but c'mon....look at those hairdos. You tell me.

Back-To-School Shopping Rush Continues
ALACHUA COUNTY---It's the last night of freedom for most North Central Florida students and their parents were out in full force today getting some last-minute shopping done.
Parents say they were out getting deals on everything from school supplies, clothes, shoes and more.
The state-wide tax holiday was earlier this month and many parents say they did get some shopping done during that time - but there are some things they missed - or weren't told about before hand.
"You don't really know what they're gonna do until the first day but you can get the basics and there are some things that we did get but we need a few more that we found out," said parent Emmy Jones.
Classes in Alachua, Bradford, Columbia, Dixie, Gilchrist, Lafayette, Levy, and Marion counties start tomorrow.
For Suwannee and Union counties, it's Tuesday and Thursday respectively.

4 days out 304cc dual plane. I have large gap. I understand I had one before and will have one no matter what but is there any way to help close the gap post op recovery? I am wearing a surgical bra and strap above my implants but the implants are not riding high at all. Most of the swelling is side below arm pit. strap help bring them closer together. my implants aren't riding high, is it bad to even be wearing the strap? I keep the bra tight to bring them closer together during healing?
Question About Gap and Cleavage?
Doctor Answers 8
Gap between breast implants - necessary or not?
We don't have the benefit of any photos but I personally try to close the gap even in wide breasted patients by selecting an implant whose width is enough to get cloe to the midline without going too far. That way I don't create what I once heard called "Death Valley." You can't close it up after surgery, just maybe needed wider implants. That's usually the problem.
Cleavage after breast augmentation
I would recommend you follow your surgeon's post-surgery instructions but express your concerns. Your surgeon can provide you with an explanation on why you should continue wearing the strap.
Web reference: https://www.edelsteincosmetic.com/
yes the gap is your anatomic presentation and can only be improved and never corrected completely. Larger implants that fit you, not oversized help. Too large will usually shift laterally into the sides.

Gap and Cleavage
Thanks for sharing your story. From the context that you presented, you have a clear understanding of your own anatomy and potential postoperative result. The strap that you wear up top keeps the implants from migrating north and you are keeping your bra tight to keep them centralized. The only area of caution is that you should make sure that by tightening your bra, you do not force the implant laterally. You can correct this by padding the bra on the sides or talking with your surgeon who can help with surgical taping to help keep the implants from migrating outwards. You have to be careful with tape because too much traction will damage your skin and could cause blisters. I am glad that you did not try to correct the gap with a very large implant; this can lead to synmastia (appearance of one large breast) which is difficult to treat.
Gap between breasts after implants
The space between your breasts before surgery may be very similar to the space between your breast implants after surgery.Although your surgeon may be able to place the implants slightly closer, your anatomy dictates how close they will ultimately be. You can try wearing a good sports bra to prevent any lateral movement of the implant. Discuss this further with your surgeon.
Best wishes,
Web reference: http://www.williambrunomd.com
Question About Gap and Cleavage?
As you seem to understand, if the breasts are widely separated before surgery, they will also be so after surgery.
In some patients, as the pectoral strap pushes the implants down, it may also push them out. Discuss with your surgeon whether you really need them, and if it is ok to use a surgipad (gauze) as a block to help hold the lateral position of the implants in place.
Thank you for your question, and best wishes.
Concerns about "Gap" And Cleavage after Breast Augmentation?
Thank you for the question.
You are correct in that it is not generally possible to decrease the gap between the breasts surgically. In other words, the natural space between the breasts should be maintained with breast augmentation surgery and the breast implants should be positioned centered below the nipple/areola complexes.
I think that you will find that it will do no harm to use the tight bra and/or strap; on the other hand, the use of these devices will not necessarily change the end results of the surgery. You may find that as postoperative swelling results, the depth and appearance of the cleavage area will improve with time.
For more precise advice/recommendations, discuss your questions/concerns with your plastic surgeon.
Best wishes.
Web reference: http://www.poustiplasticsurgery.com/Procedures/Procedure_breastAugmentation.htm
Gap is probably ok immediately after breast implants
It takes time for the muscle and skin to stretch (months), so it's too early to tell. There isn't much you can do to change the position of your implants after surgery, and you may not want to change the position if they are properly positioned already. The upper strap will keep them from moving up too high, keeps the muscle from swelling, and sometimes help with comfort. The bra does the same. Keeping the bra tight will probably do no harm and may help keep them from migrating to the sides too much, but overall doesn't do much either.

Michigan State commit 6'7 forward Delvon Roe continues to play week in and out with some of the countries best. While his listed team, the Kings of the Court have been on a break, Roe has taken advantage of the free time by joining forces with DTA Wisconsin and future Spartan 5'9 point guard Korie Lucious last weekend.
This weekend he teamed up with the Ohio Basketball Club and 7' BJ Mullens (Ohio State), 6'9 Yancey Gates (Cincinnati), 6'1 Anthony Crater (Ohio State), and 6'4 Devon Moore (Undecided with Wisconsin, Michigan, and Illinois among his favorites).
Roe wore the rims and nets out as he attacked in half court sets as well as in transition where he was looking to fill the lane and expecting to dunk. In the latter part of the game, Roe tweaked his left knee and came out of the game for a brief minute of security. Upon his reentering Roe went back to work and evidence of a bruised knee was not apparent. He finished with over 20 points and may have reached double figures on the boards.
Mullens had an all around good game in the defeat but, he showed a consistent jumper from outside including one from beyond the arc. Gates and the Meanstreets' 6'9 Kevin Dillard along with 6'8 big guy Cedric Josh Crittle were involved in battles of physicality and will. All three are high major players and showed why on the court with booming dunks, quick post moves, and the ability to get up and down the court better than many of their peers.
There were also others that stood out, such as the OBC's back court of Crater and Moore. Crater court setting abilities kept defenders at bay as those that slept were quickly burned by the Buckeye commits passing. Moore had an exceptional game by hitting jumpers, playing stingy defense, and making nifty passes like the alley-oop he threw up for the land filling Gates.
The Meanstreets' 6' point guard Kevin Killard floated in the game winner from twelve feet in the OBC's first pool play game to win, 58-56.
The Meanstreets not only received solid production from their big guys and point-guard but, also from rising national recruit 6'5 Matthew Humphrey who continued to knock down perimeter shots and his length makes adds to his defensive abilities. 6'5 Kaleb Wright showed the aggressive scoring ability that those recruiting him would enjoy. He attacked the rim and was efficient from outside and the mid-range.
This is only one of the highlight games over the weekend as there will be 17u player highlights from the SoCal All-Stars, Team Takeover, Indiana Elite, and the Michigan Mustangs.
