Nidecker's Thierry Kunz Talks About The Newly Acquired Flow Snowboarding
The Nidecker Group has acquired Flow Snowboarding from Flow Sports and SOURCE has spoken with the group's Chief Marketing Officer and Brand Manager for Nidecker and now Flow, Thierry Kunz to find out more details.
Please explain the key attractions of Flow to Nidecker.
Flow has been connected with Nidecker since day one as Shiro Trading (owner of Pryde Group and Flow sport) distributed Nidecker in the 90s. Nidecker and Flow also used the same patent on the back entry system.
But what ultimately led to Nidecker's acquisition of Flow, was that Flow complements our brand portfolio nicely and also runs with a similar strategy to the Nidecker brand.
And Flow fits with Nidecker on all levels; product-wise thanks to the binding category with the speed entry system and boots. Whereas Nidecker is known for its snowboards and Flow for its boots and bindings, both brands make all three categories and can now complement each other in these segments. It works distribution-wise as Flow is stronger in certain regions and Nidecker in others, so now both brands can work together to build upon this.
How does Flow fit into the portfolio of brands in the Nidecker group?
Our goal is to cater for all types of consumer; from the most core to the occasional enthusiast participant and from the big mountain rider to the freestyler or on-piste carver. So for us it was important to make sure that we integrated a brand that targets a certain profile of consumer. And for Flow the target is clearly the occasional enthusiast participant, which is the same as for the Nidecker brand, but in a different way.
Please tell us about the new management team at Flow.
Acquisitions are never easy when it comes to organisational changes, especially when one company is based in California and the other in Switzerland. So we are currently in a transition period, but what I can tell you is that I will manage the brand starting from now. How it will be finalized is still to be sorted, but we expect the transition to be complete by the end of the season.
What opportunities do you see in the beginner and also the older market?
We're interested in all participants, but are focusing on two things: First of all, carving because it's what most people like to do and it talks to every demographic – now it's cool to carve on the piste and I'm sure that a lot of snowboarders who switched to skiing, thinking snowboarding was dead, will return thinking that it's cool again. And the second focus is beginners, because except for Burton, no other brand speaks to the beginner in their marketing.
At Nidecker we create a lot of tools to make sure that beginners select the right product (because it's not just a question of price point) and that they are perfectly set up on the board. We've done a lot of research to find an easy and clear way to know your stance, your angles and what board you should ride depending on your weight, shoe size, level and the type of riding you want to do. All of these tools are of no use to core brands, but for us they are the basics of snowboarding and I think that more that two thirds of snowboarders aren't set up on their board correctly or they don't have the board they should have. And it's without this service that people are buying from online retailers and receive a board or pair of bindings at home without the knowledge of how to mount everything properly. For us this is massively important, otherwise it's like playing a guitar whilst wearing a pair of boxing gloves.
How will you use Flow technology across the group?
Flow is a company full of very interesting technology and for us it's important to create bridges between brands when it's useful. We are integrating two pairs of bindings and one boot with Flow technology. But we have also implemented a strap, which was developed two years ago for Now Bindings on the Nidecker Carbon two strap binding. So yes it's important to combine technology, but each brand takes the lead and exclusivity for the launch of each technology.
How does the Nidecker group see the future for the rental market?
The rental market is another big subject for us. I believe that rental will increase drastically in the future. But for us it's not just a question of price, it's a question of the system and Flow will help us with not just the product, but everything else that comes along with that. We are working to revolutionize the rental market.

I have to run a few errands today, among them is to visit Bed Bath and beyond to get some new frying pans as some of mine are wearing out and I don't want pieces of teflon in my food. While there, if I have the chance, I'm going to ask where the pressure cookers are...
Now, I don't play poker, but I have a pretty good poker face. Given the chance, I'm going to ask attempt to matter of factly ask someone working there if I can buy one without a background check...
I pulled off something similar about two months ago when I asked a LGS salesman if he has any "machine gun assault clips", he responded that he was out of stock on most magazines and didn't give any indication he knew I was messing with him...I think he figured I was a gun newbie and didn't know what the heck I was talking about.

For a little side-project I'm involved in (more on that in a future post), I wanted to try adding a little LCD screen with touch sensor to a Linux setup. Found this one at iTead. There's a little ribbon cable and adapter (just re-wiring) available for it, which allows plugging this thing into a Raspberry Pi. The nice thing about this screen, apart from being 320×240 pixels and 16-bit color TFT, is its physical size – just right for a stacked setup

How to Mix and Match Your Digital Marketing Media
With the latest ad tools, marketers can target their message based on the user's location, time and device.
What do you do when you have a question, need to reach someone, or want to find out more about a product? You probably reach for a nearby device to get the answer, get in touch or make a purchase.
Now more than ever, we rely on technology to help us learn, connect and get things done. Having the information you need at your fingertips at any given time has become a basic expectation of the constantly connected world. From today's weather, to where to go to lunch or how to repair a washing machine, whatever our daily challenges are, we want information and answers. And we expect it in real time.
We live in a multi-screen world where many of us carry at least one device, all the time, every day and we use our devices interchangeably depending on our situation, seamlessly transitioning between them. What does this mean for businesses like yours? It means the time has come to mix and match how franchisors and franchisees market in traditional channels and online. There are two keys that we'll cover in this article. But first, let's understand how marketing is changing.
Consumers Signal Moments that Matter
Historically, if a business wanted to reach a customer, it developed a message and identified the channels best suited to reach the chosen audience. The message was sent out – on radio, TV, through direct mail – and it was "hoped" the message would make an impression on someone who was receptive at that moment, spurring him to act.
With ever-changing technology and devices, consumers now signal the moments that matter. They proactively show interest, as if raising their hands for information they desire then and there, wherever they are, on whatever device they are using. With today's technology and tools, businesses can respond immediately with the message most relevant to that person. This ability for consumers to choose and signal the moments that matter has turned marketing upside down, shifting performance marketing messages from outbound sales pitches to responsive service and information provision at the precise moment when consumers show interest.
These moments, signaled across devices, across the world, and across time zones, are happening in the billions. With the latest ad tools, marketers can target their message based on the user's location, time and device. With the added consumer insight and these new tools, it's easier than ever to reach the right person, at the right time, in the right place, with the right message.
Understand Your Value Proposition
How do marketers need to adapt and change to take advantage of this new reality? The first key point for brands is to understand their value proposition for different consumer moments and align their messaging behind that. For a retailer, that might mean different ads during store hours (such as phone number, real-time offers or store locator) versus after-hours ads (that could include product information, online customer service or open hours the next day).
When promoting the store locator in its mobile ads, RadioShack estimated that 40 percent to 60 percent saw the online store locator then visited a store, with 85 percent of those customers making a purchase. For a pizza chain, it might mean tailoring smartphone ads for convenient click-to-call ordering or including directions to nearby locations.
Digital advertising can offer much greater measurability, which can make it easier to quantify a tangible ROI. It is important that franchisors and franchisees evaluate the marketing channels and mix those, both online and offline, that best meet their business needs and provide the best results.
The new model of marketing includes a stimulus such as a TV ad that a franchisor launches to promote its brand in conjunction with a YouTube campaign to reach a wider audience at very low cost. Also crucial is what's called the "zero moment of truth," when consumers see the ad and then go online to search for more information.
Provide Ample Information
The second key point is to provide as much information as possible to potential customers when they first hear about your business. This could be the difference between a sale, when a searcher finds information about you, and a lost customer, which happens if a person doesn't find what he's looking for or finds a competitor instead.
With this model in mind, franchisors and franchisees can clearly benefit from working together on a cohesive online marketing strategy. They can leverage each other to create more brand awareness, drive more local sales and take as much real estate on Google search page as possible with free organic results and paid search. A study titled "Search Ads Pause" was published by Google showing that when paid search ads were paused and only organic ads were shown, businesses missed 89 percent of incremental clicks.
The answer for today's franchisor is to mix and match the best marketing channels for them. Franchisors and franchisees should work together on their strategy and should use both offline and online media to ensure that their message reaches the right people, at the right time, in the right place. Then the next time a potential customer reaches for a device, he will find your business.
Last year Google hosted the first educational event specifically for the franchise industry, called GIFA, which stands for Google International Franchise Assembly. At GIFA, about 150 attendees (franchisors and partners) learned about how Google is working with the franchise space, high-level trends for the next coming years, shared best practices with peers, and investigated new products and solutions specifically for franchising.
Chel Heler is the strategic partner manager focused on the franchise industry and Jenya Denissova is the head of channel sales, traditional media and franchising in North America for Google. Heler is a member of the IFA Marketing and Technology Committee. Find them at fransocial.franchise.org via the directory.

Ahmed Qurei
Daily Forecast for June 25th 2017
Ahmed Qurei is a male celebrity.
He was born on Friday March 26th 1937, in Unknown.
June 25th 2017 finds Ahmed Qurei full of self-doubts. He also suffers from inability to see the simple solutions, and a tendency to make things complicated.
Ahmed should take a break, rest, and most importantly - spend time alone.
While studying the color and flavor of the day, it is a good practice to keep in mind the greater meaning of June and the master plan of 2017 in Ahmed's life.
You and Ahmed
About Ahmed's Numerological Forecast & Personal Day Cycle
Just as Ahmed Qurei evolves through a nine-year cycle and experiences the nine-month cycle, he is also subjected to nine-day cycles, even though their impact is subtle compared to the Personal Year and even Personal Month cycles. The Personal Day cycles proceed according to the same pattern - 1 through 9 - that the Personal Year and Personal Month cycles do. The numbers within the daily cycles have a similar impact on Ahmed to the yearly and monthly cycles - though less pronounced.

A special North Carolina Senate committee will meet today to hash out the details of the lottery bill sent to them from the House.
Most lawmakers say they want to see a number of changes before they make a decision, which could mean a vote is still weeks away.
The committee will take up the House version of the lottery bill that barely passed earlier this month. That bill calls for a lottery run by a state commission with no advertising allowed.
During the Senate committee's first meeting last week, many legislators made it clear that if the bill passes, it will look much different than the House's version. Some senators said they would rather see a private company run the lottery. Others say they won't go along with a lottery unless it can be promoted through advertising.
The committee's chair says a vote will not happen until sometime in May. If the Senate does pass the bill, it would then go back to the House for another vote.

This one kind of puzzles me. And I maybe wrong, but how much money do they expect to generate and how long do they think they will be in operation without advertising? As I said, I maybe wrong. Are there any other states out there that have state run lotteries that do not advertise and are operating in the black.
I agree that politicians shouldn't write legislation to rule out advertising.
... the lottery never fails to surprise!
I say just go ahead and do it !!! Tired of waitin. North Carolina needs a lottery but if we don't hook up with Powerball and MegaMillion I'll still go to SC and VA to play. I vote to cut our politicians' salaries in half and use the money for educational purposes.
once again politicians messing up a good thing......
Did SC have to go through all this? If not, why does NC have to be diffterent? Why can't we just let the public vote on it? I don't get it!!!!!!!!!!

"Healthy food can never taste good."
"You can hardly find a decent meal under $15 at Duxton Hill."
As Ninja Bowl makes its entrance to the upmarket Duxton precinct, the above statements are proven redundant. Meals are affordably priced from $14 to $19, with no additional GST or service charge. Most importantly, they're delicious.
At a glance, one would perceive the menu to be heavily inspired by Japanese cuisine. Well, it is. "Ninja Bowls" are wholesome meals encompassing a balanced ratio of protein and vegetable components, served in a sizeable bowl. Customers have the option of quinoa, "Ninja Rice" (a mixture of flavoured Japanese pearl rice and brown rice), orzo, or garden greens as their base.
Noka ($14)
The "Noka", composed of 24-hour braised beef cheek, baby corn, Korean beansprouts, mixed nuts, onsen egg, semi-dried tomatoes, is one of my top picks. The beef cheek that is braised for 24 hours promises fork-tenderness.
Great flavour combination and textural contrasts. The other "Ninja Bowls" seem to possess this characteristic too.
Kabuki ($14)
The "Kabuki" is an inviting poultry option, of seared honey-marinated chicken leg paired with pickled beetroot, wobbly onsen egg, crunchy baby corn and Korean beansprouts, scattered with chopped chives and fried shallots for additional aroma.
The best way to eat a "Ninja Bowl" is to puncture the egg and allow the yolk to serve as a flavour-binding mechanism as you mix all the ingredients together, and you do so to get a variety in a single mouthful.
Kaisen ($16)
The "Kaisen" is designed to please seafood lovers, with perfectly seared Hokkaido scallops and juicy mussels, enriched with lemon butter sauce, and accompanied by mushroom varieties and carrot. This dish goes really well with the plump orzo (pasta grains) that provides a nice bite.
Tokyo Superfood ($19)
If there were one dish on the menu I would eat on an almost daily basis, it would be the Tokyo Superfood. The garlic-fried quinoa tossed with corn kernels exhibits incredible flavours, forming the perfect base for the mild-tasting tuna tataki.
Fancy French ($16)
While the Ninja Bowls are palate-and-tummy-gratifying, the highlight for me was the gorgeously presented "Fancy French". The symphony of colours and textures on the plate contribute to the wow factor.
Unlike the typical French toast, beneath the golden brown surface, fig jam is slathered between thick brioches to add a sweet dimension. To serve, the French toast is topped with a glob of homemade hazelnut butter, drizzled with honey infused with pickled Japanese plums (umeboshi), and artfully decorated with segments of grape, plum, and fig.
On a side note, they should consider selling that hazelnut butter in jars, just so we consumers could smear everything we possibly could with that delicious goodness.
Ume Ginger Lemonade ($8)
To quench your thirst, try their concoction of umeboshi, sparkling lemonade and ginger – the Ume Ginger Lemonade.
Those who need their caffeine fix will be equally pleased.

Enjoy a thoughtful evening read.
Enjoy a longer, more in-depth read.
As members of the anti-ISIS coalition meet in Washington to coordinate measures to defeat the jihadists, a harder question may be how to prevent their return to liberated territory.
Analysts doubt whether Beijing is prepared to change its stance that the US should engage in direct talks.
In their White House meeting Friday, the two leaders will have plenty of pressing bilateral issues to discuss. But establishing a personal rapport, and an understanding of shared values, may be even more important.
Whether by strategic design or not, the Trump administration appears to be pivoting away from the hands-off approach to Syria that Barack Obama pursued for years. Experts say the US deployment likely will grow.
The former CEO is traveling to volatile Northeast Asia at a moment of diplomatic complexity. China in particular will be gauging whether the secretary of State has the ear of President Trump.
While the White House touts national security as justification for its revised temporary ban on travel from six Muslim-majority nations, opponents are likely to challenge the order in the courts.
Secretary of State Tillerson skipped a usually high profile human rights report Friday – fueling growing consternation in Washington over what already looks like the sidelining of the State Department in the Trump administration.
Potentially leaving the UN Human Rights Council while boosting the Pentagon budget would point to a broader change in priorities.
As two cabinet secretaries visit Mexico City, Mexicans wonder whether recent progress in US relations matters to President Trump.
President Trump eased worries by picking H.R. McMaster to be national security adviser. But Mr. Trump's combative behavior remains a concern, experts say.
In recent weeks, President Trump has moved with caution on Israel. In many ways, that held true during his visit with Prime Minister Netanyahu. But his comments on a one-state solution caused a stir.
Establishing an effective safe zone in Syria would be difficult. Recent attempts in other war-torn areas have often subjected refugees to greater risks.
The former ExxonMobil CEO takes the helm at the State Department with ruffled US allies abroad and dissenting employees at home. The key to his success is securing his lines to President Trump and the White House.
President Trump says his temporary travel bans will lead to 'extreme vetting.' The already effective vetting system can be made better, experts say. But it's less clear whether that will make America safer.
Protests from liberals and conservatives probably won't force the president to back down from targeting Muslim-majority nations, but the uproar sends an important message to the world. America won't close its doors quietly.
The very public falling-out between the two neighbors is a likely harbinger of the pushback Trump can expect from foreign leaders as he implements his 'America First' agenda.
Do borders need to be stronger to protect America? President Trump says yes, and signed an executive order Wednesday along those lines. But global interconnectedness, which the US has cultivated since World War II, was not altruistic. Rather, it was seen as creating more American security than walls ever could. –Mark Sappenfield, National news editor
At Davos, President Xi thrilled the world's economic elites by warning against protectionism and extolling free trade. But economists and Asia experts say China's vision of globalization differs sharply from America's.
In a weekend interview that shocked European leaders, the president-elect expressed indifference to EU disintegration and reiterated campaign rhetoric that NATO was 'obsolete.'
Secretary of State nominee Rex Tillerson's testimony diverges substantially from Trump's positions on several key issues. Will he have the autonomy to pursue his views, or will he be marginalized, as Colin Powell was under George W. Bush?

Zograf Peak (Vrah Zograf \'vr&h zo-'graf\) rises to 1,011 metres at the northeastern extremity of the Friesland Ridge in the Tangra Mountains, Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. The peak is heavily glaciated and crevassed, with precipitous and partly ice-free northern slopes. The peak surmounts Huron Glacier to the north and Shipka Valley to the east, and is accessible via the saddle of elevation 975 m linking it to the north rib of Lyaskovets Peak. The peak is linked to the northeast by Lozen Saddle to Lozen Nunatak, Erma Knoll and Aheloy Nunatak.
The peak is named after the Bulgarian Zograf Monastery on Mount Athos.
First ascent by Lyubomir Ivanov from Camp Academia on 31 December 2004.
The peak is located 1.33 km north by west of Lyaskovets Peak, 4.26 km east by south of Pliska Peak, 1.88 km south-southeast of Kuzman Knoll, 3.9 km south by west of Maritsa Peak and 1.55 km west of Komini Peak.
Camp Academia[edit]
The northwestern foothills of Zograf Peak are known as Camp Academia, a central location in the upper Huron Glacier, Wörner Gap area, eastern Livingston Island (62°38′41.9″S 60°10′18″W / 62.644972°S 60.17167°W). This location can be accessed by an 11 km route from St. Kliment Ohridski base, or a 12.5 km route from Juan Carlos I base. The site offers convenient overland access to the Tangra Mountains to the south; Bowles Ridge, Vidin Heights, Kaliakra Glacier and Saedinenie Snowfield areas to the north; Huron Glacier to the east and Perunika Glacier and Huntress Glacier to the west.
Camp Academia hosted the base camp of the Bulgarian topographic survey Tangra 2004/05 from 3 December 2004 until 2 January 2005 and was named for the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences in appreciation of that academy's contribution to Antarctic exploration. Since 2004 the site has been designated as the summer post office Tangra 1091 of the Bulgarian Posts Plc.
Zograf Peak and Camp Academia were mapped in 2005 and 2009 from the topographic survey Tangra 2004/05.

"Anyone who says that economic security is a human right, has been too much babied. While he babbles, other men are risking and losing their lives to protect him. They are fighting the sea, fighting the land, fighting disease and insects and weather and space and time, for him, while he chatters that all men have a right to security and that some pagan god—Society, The State, The Government, The Commune—must give it to them. Let the fighting men stop fighting this inhuman earth for one hour, and he will learn how much security there is." ~ Rose Wilder Lane
Obamacare's Marriage Penalty
Submitted by Bradley Keyes on Fri, 2013-02-22 01:00
"Suppose you are earning 200 percent of the federal poverty level (currently $21,660). You will be required to pay a premium equal to 6.3 percent of your income in the exchange—or about $1,365 for a health plan that has an actual cost of, say, $5,000. Thus, you and a cohabitating partner who also earns 200 percent of the federal poverty level could both obtain health coverage for about $2,730. However, if you marry your partner, the two of you will be required to pay 9.5 percent of your income in premiums—or about $4,115. Being married will cost the two of you $1,385 a year."

Potential Hazards to Health, Environment,
and Quality-of-Life
United States / International Edition
(Also see the Local Michigan Edition)
Kathleen Jenks, Ph.D.
Author's Note, 27 September 2005:When I launched an earlier version of this page on 20 February 2005, it included 22 links covering potential hazards to health, environment, and quality-of-life; the role of greed and politics; and "issues of food supply." In re-organizing and indexing these Factory Farms / Industrial Agriculture pages earlier today, I realized that "issues of food supply" needed to be on a separate page and renamed We Are What We Eat. Thus, I have split the original page in half.News Items on the EPA's 2005 "Get-out-of-jail-free-card" for CAFOs that pollute
This page now focuses specifically on politics, greed, and hazards to humans, animals, and environment involved in actual factory farm practices. The new, split-off page focuses on looming problems with the resultant food supply, with psycho-spiritual issues, and with future solutions. Since there will inevitably be a certain degree of "slippage" between these categories, you might wish to explore both pages.

Artist: Steve Sack, "updating" the mid-19th century painting by Edward Hicks.

Permission pending
We begin these links with the American EPA, or Environmental Protection Agency, which is supposed to protect its citizens, but doesn't. It protects only the wealthiest. These reprints include "Bush's forgiving EPA"from an editorial in the Louisville, Kentucky Courier-Journal for 25 January 2005. Here is how it opens:
http://www.fb.org/news/nr/nr2005/nr0302a.htmlOne depressing consequence of George W. Bush's war in Iraq is that it diverts attention from all sorts of other messes created by his administration.The article continues with details on what the Sierra Club has elsewhere called the EPA's "get-out-of-jail-free card" for polluting CAFOs.
Among the most obvious of those are environmental setbacks -- "nearly 150 destructive policy actions over the past year alone," says this month's report from the Natural Resources Defense Council. NRDC attorney Robert Kennedy Jr. charges, "An almost daily barrage of weakening policy changes over the past four years threatens decades of hard-won environmental progress." . . .
There is also a reprint of "Asthma Goes Rural, Thanks to Amnesty for Polluters" by Aina Hunter in The Village Voice in NYC. It concludes:...But thanks to an agreement signed the day after the Bush inauguration, massive meat processors like Tyson Foods (which has the distinction of owning one of three U.S. slaughterhouses held up by Human Rights Watch as a violator of international work-place standards) will soon be free to churn fresh country air into out-house smog while the EPA investigates the increasing problem of slaughterhouse pollution. The processors just pay a flat, one-time fee for assumed past transgressions. It's a sweet deal for Tyson, which, coincidentally, helped pay for the Bush inauguration in DC.

News Items on Chickens and Eggs

From Vegan Outreach
This is a reprint of news articles on industrial poultry farming in the USA from various sources. (For more on Tyson and their chickens, see the EPA reprints mentioned above.)News Items on International Spread of Industrial Agriculture
Doomed Pig
From Vegan Outreach
This page includes a reprint of a disturbing 7 February 2005 story by Tom Hundley from the Chicago Tribune, "Village in Poland clashes with U.S. pork giant: America's top hog producer [Smithfield]wants to create `the Iowa of Europe'; residents gag on transformation."http://www.jhsph.edu/PublicHealthNews/Press_Releases/PR_2004/Schwab_swinefarms.html
This comes from a December 3, 2004 news release issued by the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health: "Multidrug-Resistant Bacteria Found To Be Airborne in Concentrated Swine Operation." Here are several sobering excerpts:News Items on CAFOs destroying rural communities & even an entire state -- IowaPeople could be exposed to antibiotic-resistant bacteria from breathing the air from concentrated swine feeding facilities. . . . The study adds to the understanding of various pathways in which humans can be exposed to antibiotic-resistant bacteria, such as consumption of retail pork products and contact with or ingestion of soil, surface water and groundwater near production operations. . . . [T]he use of antibiotics in industrial animal production has a significant impact on the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria that threaten human health. Using antibiotics in animals can decrease the effectiveness of the same antibiotics used to combat human infections....The researchers believe workers at concentrated animal feeding operations are at greatest risk for airborne exposure to antibiotic-resistant bacteria. However, the same workers may also become reservoirs of drug-resistant bacteria that can be spread to family and the broader community. The study also raises questions about the spread of drug-resistant bacteria to areas beyond the immediate site through ventilation fans and by the application of manure from feeding operations to off-site fields. . . .
This page includes a 9 February 2005 reprint, "Keeping Iowa's Young Folks at Home After They've Seen Minnesota" from the New York Times. It is as blunt as you can get about why the cost of CAFOs is far, far more than any nation can afford. It looks at the disintegration of the entire state of Iowa -- an ominous portent of what lies ahead for all other CAFO-blighted states. The piece starts off slowly but once it gets going, you'd have to be brain-dead not to finally "get" it.http://www.altpressonline.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=355
Western New York's horrific experiences with CAFOs. [Annotation tba]
[Added 3/13/05]: This is "Farmers study future without confined feeding operations" by Danya Cain -- another article offering a very hopeful vision of the future from Dr. David Zartman of Ohio State University. It comes from TribTown in Jackson County, Indiana. Since links to newspaper articles often expire within weeks of publication, I am quoting this brief, but important piece in full:Changes in confined animal feeding operations are eminent.
That was the message Monday night from guest speaker David Zartman at the annual Indiana Forage Council meeting. The premise of his lecture, part of the Indiana Forage Councils annual meeting, is that the confinement system is not an enduring system, Zartman said. The change is coming, Zartman said. Whether or not Ive said it right tonight or not, it will be enormous. If CAFOs survive, they wont be as we know it.
Zartman, a professor of animal science at Ohio State University, predicted that in one human generation CAFOs would move out of the country. Where they go, Zartman said, so do the feed grains supplying those operations. Pastoral farming will replace CAFOs, he said. "If grazing is your game, Zartman said, youre in the right game.
Thats good news for some. Grazing will be a big future in agriculture, said farmer Norbert Schafer of Madison.
Zartman attributes the end of CAFOs and their operation methods to three factors:
-- The growing environmental movement.
-- A push for animal rights.
-- And a depleting supply of laborers willing to work in CAFOs.
The growing trend in organic and whole foods are key to surviving in the future, he said. A growth in selective consumers, who prefer locally grown, natural or organic foods, coupled with the drive for purer water and cleaner air are factors, he said. The next generation of voters will have a greener agenda, because of a different social structure and cultural mix, he said.
CAFOs will not fit that picture, Zartman said.
A change in CAFO operations is the future and a lifestyle change is part of the picture, added one Washington County farmer. Forget about what Mom and Dad raised and (how they) worked the farm, said Dan Fennell, and try to get into a lifestyle thats going to be the future.
Although the details of change for CAFOs are sketchy, Tony Stephanus of Deputy contends Zartman is right. Stephanus said smaller farms might re-emerge as a result. "(The) system is self-correcting itself, Stephanus said.
Zartman also urged those in attendance to concentrate on winter grazing and renovating stressed pastures.
News Items on Serious Hazards to Employees working in CAFOs
This page includes a 6 February 2005 reprint of, "What Meat Means" -- an editorial on slaughterhouses from the New York Times. The focus looks, not at the animals, but at the uneducated, vulnerable immigrant labor force working in these places and suffering a high degree of serious injuries.http://www.truthout.org/issues_05/H022805C.shtml...What is most alarming at the slaughterhouse is not what happens to the animals - they have already met their fate. It is what happens to the humans who work there.... The problem of worker safety is compounded by the fact that meatpackers, driven by the brutal economics of the industry, always try to hire the cheapest labor they can find. That increasingly means immigrants whose language difficulties compound the risks of the job. The result, according to a new report by Human Rights Watch, is "extraordinarily high rates of injury" in conditions that systematically violate human rights....After considering many of the issues involved, the piece concludes with this:...In recent years, Americans have had the habit of thinking of wide-scale workplace abuses as foreign affairs - the kind of thing that turns up in Southeast Asia, for instance. And, in a sense, the abuses found in American slaughterhouses are international matters, because so many of the workers are actually citizens of other countries. But in this case, the abuses are taking place right at home, and as part of our food chain. In a carb-conscious era, the meat processing industry should be a place of opportunity for workers who put all that protein on your plate. Right now, that is hardly the case.

News Items on Minnesota's Plan to Destroy Family Farms by Weakening Local Control Over CAFOs
HOW CAFOs GET INTO YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD
This is a reprint of a discouraging December 2, 2004 New York Times editorial, "Fighting for Local Control." Here are several excerpts:http://www.magicvalley.com/news/localstate/index.asp?StoryID=14335Given the results of the election, voters' power should be strong and healthy in rural America. Perhaps it is when it comes to voting for statewide and national offices, but not when it comes to local environmental issues - especially concerning factory farms. The latest example is Minnesota. Unlike Iowa and Wisconsin, Minnesota still retains the principle of control at the township level. Local residents can, for instance, decide whether they want a large-scale hog-confinement operation next door. That has kept Minnesota relatively free of the mammoth factory farms that have polluted Iowa.
But last year Gov. Tim Pawlenty convened a 14-member advisory group - a virtual cross section of industrial agriculture in the state - to find ways to increase the number of livestock in Minnesota....
...The report has caused an uproar, for good reason. It's a blueprint for the destruction of family farming in Minnesota....

A complex medical condition is cited by the defense in a fatal, DUI civil suit.
OCALA- "A constellation of events."
A set of "unique physiological effects."
"A thing."
Everything but the word "phenomenon" was uttered Thursday in circuit court to describe "delayed gastric emptying," the scientific admissibility of which came under further scrutiny during a protracted motion hearing held ahead of the auto negligence civil jury trial of William "Billy" Nichols, Jr.
Nichols, 45, is being sued by Adrian "Stretch" Cummings for negligence after crossing his truck into oncoming traffic in Ocklawaha in November 2004 and colliding with the car carrying Cummings' wife and daughter, who were both killed from the impact.
Cummings alleges Nichols was drunk at the time; his blood alcohol content, in fact, measured twice the legal limit two hours after the crash.
Circuit Judge Brian Lambert reserved ruling on several outstanding motions Thursday but swiftly ruled on others.
He granted a defense motion for protective order of Nichols' psychotherapist Dr. Timothy Byrd, which shields the doctor from having to turn over confidential medical records, including any prescriptions issued to his patient.
Byrd's attorney, John B. Fuller, argued that a strong privilege existed between doctor and patient and that nothing in the records could possibly illuminate any preexisting disposition Nichols had to delayed gastric emptying.
Fuller said it was due to "a constellation of events" and "unique physiological effects that have nothing to do with [Nichols'] general medical condition" that caused the alcohol to sit in his stomach for six hours the morning of the crash and not be absorbed into his bloodstream until after the collision.
That defense led to Nichols' successful acquittal on two counts of DUI manslaughter during his October 2007 criminal trial.
The judge also found no necessity for a Frye hearing, requested by Cummings' lawyer Scott Parks to question the reliability of delayed gastric emptying as a legitimate medical occurrence.
Christopher Carlyle, one of Nichols' civil attorneys, said the disorder has been recognized in the medical community since the 1930's and is "a generally accepted scientific principle."
Lambert will rule at a later time as to whether Cummings will be allowed to subpoena Nichols' medical records from other places like Munroe Regional Medical Center and Walgreens Pharmacy.
Nichols' attorney, Michael Donsky, said such records are irrelevant. "He is a normal, functioning, healthy male with out any disease that contributed to delayed gastric emptying," he said.
"What is this thing, then, delayed gastric emptying?" Lambert at one point posited to the attorneys.
"It happens in everyone," Donsky replied, adding that such external factors as a large, fatty Thanksgiving meal consumed the evening before the crash, the proof of the alcohol and a certain circadian rhythm of sleep caused it to reportedly occur in Nichols the morning of the crash.
Lambert cautioned the lawyers on each side to "pick your battles wisely" in the grand scheme of the case.
"At some point this needs to end," he said. "You're going to have to decide what's important to the big picture of this case."
The trial, which has already been postponed twice, is set to be heard before a jury in September.
