"Our intention was for reconciliation and healing for both parties," he said. "But what has happened is as far away from that as you could possibly imagine. We are in shock.
"He does not deserve to feel this bad a second time around. It is not what we expected. This all flies in the face of the spirit of 'Towards Healing'. This is Goliath talking down to David."
The alleged victim took the first step on May 2, 2000, in the process that this week forced George Pell to stand aside. Broken Rites, the Melbourne-based organisation for victims of church abuse, said he had telephoned them.
He alleged he had been abused at a Phillip Island camp for altar boys by George Pell, who was a student priest at the time.
Bernard Barrett, of Broken Rites, said: "He gave his first name. But we did not press him. We told him to call us back when he wanted."
The alleged victim called again on June 8 this year and repeated his claims. He rang back a few days later, saying that, on the advice of his parish priest, he had contacted Angela Ryan, the Melbourne-based executive director of the NCPS, which supervises the church's Towards Healing process.
Sister Ryan interviewed the man in June and sent him a copy of his statement, which he returned with corrections to parts that were not in sequence.
Sister Ryan, the Sydney-based chairman of the NCPS, Geoffrey Robinson, and Broken Rites, all advised the man to contact police. "But I estimate 90 per cent of them (complainants) still go through the church process, rather than the police," Mr Barrett said.
On July 17, the man wrote to Bishop Robinson, expressing concern about the lack of progress in his case.
The complainant quoted the Towards Healing document that states: "Where a complainant has chosen not to report the matter to police... the church authority must act on the complaint."
The man threatened to take his case to the media unless something was done.
On July 20, Bishop Robinson wrote to him stating that the Towards Healing process allowed for claims of abuse to be investigated only against individuals who have bishops or religious leaders as a superior. "The person against whom you have brought a complaint does not have any of these bishops or religious leaders as a superior, but only the Pope. It is therefore, not possible to begin a case under the Towards Healing process," the bishop wrote.
Instead, Bishop Robinson offered a process that would imitate Towards Healing and assured the alleged victim he would do everything to ensure his case was heard. He also promised that if the complaint was proven, the accused person would be confronted with the findings "and the difficulties of his situation would be pointed out to him as forcefully as possible".
The man agreed to the inquiry offered by the bishop.
The complainant had already told The Age about the case, but did not want publicity until the church was given a chance to take action. But details of his claims began to leak. Journalists called the church's media consultants, Royce Communications, who were told The Age was planning a story.
The Age had agreed already to investigate the case but had told the alleged victim it would run a story only if the claims had substance. The man still did not want any publicity. He wanted to give the church another chance to act. Then the allegations were leaked to an Adelaide website.
The Age submitted a series of questions to Archbishop Pell on Monday night. Dr Pell stood down on Tuesday.

According to a December 2011 Pew Foundation study, while 60 percent of Americans view socialism negatively, a plurality of Americans ages 18 to 29 (49 percent to 43 percent) and a majority of African-Americans (55 percent to 36 percent) view socialism positively. Conversely, while a majority of Americans view capitalism positively (50 percent), again a plurality of Americans ages 18-29 (47 percent) and a majority of African-Americans (51 percent) view it negatively.
Only one other demographic in America views socialism as positively as the young and African-Americans: liberal Democrats. While 90 percent of liberal Republicans and even 51 percent of moderate Democrats oppose socialism, 59 percent of liberal Democrats view socialism positively.
This is Obama's base: liberal Democrats, the young and African-Americans. They are the voters that turned out in record numbers to save Obama's second term. They are the source of his mandate. And they want socialism!
Today, Gallup released a new poll confirming what Pew already found: Obama's Democratic base loves socialism. Just look at this chart:
And apparently Obama has made socialism more popular:
And, of course, socialism is the most popular among liberals:

In his first public comments on his decision to sell the wineries, Mr Rathbone said he retained the support of his bank, ANZ, and was committed to remaining in the industry.
"We are still staying in the wine business," he told The Australian Financial Review.
The family wine company, Rathbone Wine Group, has agreed to sell Parker Coonawarra Estate to Hesketh Wines, a small South Australian family company.
The purchase price has not been disclosed. Industry sources said the winery had a book value of about $8 million and was likely sold for between $6 million and $7 million.
Mr Rathbone would not comment on the sale price or book value of the operations.
He said the sale yielded a "satisfactory result" and the company would not make any write-off following settlement, which was expected at the end of January. The sale is subject to the successful transfer of Parker's liquor licence.
The Rathbone Wine Group will bottle and package Parker wines.
Mr Rathbone appointed Credit Suisse in February to sell the company's wineries, which include Victoria's Yering Station and Mount Langhi Ghiran and Margaret River's Xanadu. Mr Rathbone's son Darren, a winemaker, is the group's chief executive.
The business fell on troubled times after it invested heavily buying and expanding wineries across the country only to have a grape glut crimp profits and expose its debt burden.
Mr Rathbone has sold more than $175 million in Nufarm shares since 2008 but it was not enough to prevent the sale of his prized wineries.
"We recognised the need to put the wineries on the market," Mr Rathbone said.
"I wouldn't have put them on the market but the business plan was set back by Nufarm."
Conditions have since improved with the wine business, which posted a loss last year, selling a record amount of wine during December. Nufarm has resumed dividend payments as its operations improve.
He said wine sales had increased 15 per cent this calendar year, aided by significant award wins including best white wine for its 2010 Xanadu Reserve Chardonnay at the recent Margaret River Wine Show.
"The pressure is off," Mr Rathbone said.
However the company is refinancing its bank debt. Mr Rathbone said he was working towards the wine business becoming debt free.
According to the information memorandum sent out to potential wine buyers, the business had liabilities of about $13 million, with net assets of about $100 million.
Mr Rathbone is considering more asset sales or taking on equity partners.
"There is a number of people that want to do that, particularly with people who want to take exports to Asia," Mr Rathbone said.
He confirmed a Street Talk report in July that he was in talks with Westchester Agricultural Asset Management, a $US1.6 billion agricultural asset manager.
The talks centre on a sale and leaseback arrangements, however the fund typically invests in farm land and not property and equipment, which are part of the vineyards.
Mr Rathbone is also in discussions with Xingfa Ma, who bought Ferngrove in Western Australia's Frankland River and Stonehaven in South Australia's Padthaway region.
"We might have an opportunity there with them, more on a commercial basis rather than an equity basis," Mr Rathbone said.
"I think there is going to be a bit of amalgamation and co-operation in the wine industry that leads to improvements."
Mr Rathbone said he was encouraged by recent Nielsen research, which showed consumers were favouring family wine brands and were shunning private labels.

By Doyle Rice, USA TODAY
Frequent showers and thunderstorms will lead to a soggy weekend for the Gulf Coast. Temperatures across the nation will be a study in contrasts on this final weekend of August, as the West cools down and the East warms up again.
Gulf gullywashers: Showers and thunderstorms are expected to drench the Gulf Coast from Texas to Florida both Saturday and Sunday. The heaviest rain is likely along coastal Louisiana and throughout most of Florida, especially on Sunday.
Cool West: The western USA will see a cooler-than-average weekend. Highs will be only in the 60s and 70s for much of the region, except in the Desert Southwest, where 90s will be the rule. Showers and thunderstorms are also expected in the Rockies from Montana to Arizona.
Wildfire worries: Critical wildfire weather is forecast this weekend across most of Nevada, Utah, eastern California and northwestern Arizona.
Summer's not over: After a warm but mostly pleasant Saturday, temperatures will begin to soar Sunday across much of the Plains, Midwest, Ohio Valley, Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. By Sunday, highs will top out in the upper 80s and into the 90s for most of the nation east of the Rockies. The Southeast will remain very warm and humid.
Rough surf: Large swells from distant Hurricane Danielle are expected to cause rough seas and high waves along the Eastern Seaboard over the weekend. There is a risk for dangerous rip currents at the beaches.
Severe weather: No severe thunderstorms are forecast anywhere in the USA over the weekend.

We don't have all the answers, but this survey proves things are definitely changing.
Women still aren't earning as much as men, but more of them than ever are breadwinners and their presence in the workforce is growing ever stronger. Yet even though women still feel put upon, the ones we surveyed have no ambition to work for or with other women. For men, their newfound proclivity for work/life balance is refreshing. However, until that willingness to be more involved at home is recognized and actually supported by more women and employers, many men will continue to feel lost in (forgive the pun) no man's land between work and home.

But he added to our literature not only in the way of cumulation, but by the advent of his single genius.
Inherited the feeling must be,—but through what cumulation of ancestral pain?
His was no greedy search for gold and no cumulation of investigations with the idea of benefiting only himself.
I conceive, then, that the cumulation of proof need go no further.
All this proves that what Hegel regarded as an evolution of the race is only a cumulation.
Distinct from them are the pieces that depend for their consistency on repetition and cumulation.
In neither case was cumulation nor tolerance observed under the conditions of these experiments.
cumulation, so called, is a positive advantage in such cases.
They depend for their consistency on repetition; there is no attempt at cumulation.
We have called one type of history evolution, the other cumulation; but how have these higher types been reached?

The Portugal international has not given up hope of making it to the final yet and believes los Blancos can set the record straight at home in the second leg
|Real Madrid are 6/1 with William Hill to win the Champions League
"Obviously we're not happy with the result tonight, but if there's one team who can turn this tie around on home turf, it's us, Real Madrid," Pepe told uefa.com.
"We need to score three goals in the return leg and that's not impossible for us. We've done it many times before, especially at home.
"We didn't start either half well on Wednesday and kept making the same old mistakes. If we can sort that out and fight for every minute of the second leg as if it were our last, we can still reach the final."
Madrid lock horns with city-rivals Atletico at the weekend before turning their attention to Tuesday's return against BVB at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Tura, Jan. 28: An innovative cultural extravaganza, Rhythm of the Hills, will begin tomorrow at Betasing in the South West Garo Hills.
The three-day event will showcase the indigenous culture of Garo hills and demonstrate dances from Khasi and Jaintia hills.
Art and culture minister Clement Marak will inaugurate the gala event.
Governor K.K. Paul and chief minister Mukul Sangma will attend the closing ceremony.
Head of art and culture department, M.W. Nongbri, told The Telegraph, The event is being held to document the different dance forms and traditions of Garo hills. Apart from the famous Wangala, the event will showcase dances like ruga and chugan.
Wangala is the harvest dance festival of the Garo tribe in Meghalaya.
Of the 12 sub-tribes of the Garos, the event will witness unique dance forms of the Ganchings, Chibok, Atongs and Chisak.
The event is an attempt to portray the different dance forms and rich cultural diversity of the Garos on a single platform, said Nongbri.
Though socially and politically independent, the sub-tribes of the Garos share a common language, culture, beliefs and religious patterns. The festival will unravel an insight into the rich culture and diversity of the Garos.
Mangona, known also as chugana, is a post-funeral ceremony.
This practice is almost on the verge of extinction. Nongbri said, An attempt is being made to document this ceremony, which is the essence of the Garo tribe.
During the chugana ceremony, a small hut with a bamboo structure is built on the courtyard of the house, known as delang. The calcined bones are kept in an earthen pot and buried near the doorstep after the ceremony. After the burial, guests are served beef and pork. During the performance of the last rites for the spirit of the dead, dance and singing continues throughout the night with the chanting of the funeral dirge known as mangtata (grapme chia) or kalee.
The dance ritual is accompanied with the beating of concave brass cymbals, the ringing sound of reeds (kimjim), the peals of horn-trumpets called adils and the soft sound of a chigring (a bamboo stringed musical instrument).
The dances and rituals of Hajong, Koch and Rabha tribes will also be displayed at the event, said Nongbri.
Apart from music, dance and food, the event will include a fashion show by renowned designer Tahera Parveen from Calcutta and display of local design by Tatyana Momin, winner of Miss Northeast 2012 and a designer from Garo hills.

The Time Machine is theoretically in place.
Some conspiracies theorists believe that this is the case
Scientists argue that time is linear and we follow a straight path.
Others reject this theory over a bottle of wine and enjoy a good laugh.
But seriously; What if we had the ability to view past events unfolding?
Do we have the spiritual wisdom to effect change without knowing?
My own believe is at this time, it is not possible.
To understand the past and the future, we need to read the Bible.
The Bible is the only living Time Machine.
The past present and future of our world can be clearly seen.
We may not be able to affect past events.
Just as well it is written in stone and cement.
Would you trust the frailty of human nature to effect change?
This would be an unprecedented disaster beyond our thinking range.
Let us leave Time to God, who gave us time.
The intricacies are at present harmoniously aligned.

GOP Proposal Is Pro-Rated Version of Same Reckless Proposal That House Passed On Saturday-According To Independent Analysis By Goldman Sachs, GOP Plan Would Reduce Economic Growth By 2 Percent
Washington, DC—Jon Summers, spokesman for Nevada Senator Harry Reid, released the following statement today in response to House Republicans' plan to pass a two-week Continuing Resolution that includes $4 billion in cuts:
"The Republicans' so-called compromise is nothing more than the same extreme package the House already handed the Senate, just with a different bow. This isn't a compromise, it's a hardening of their original position. This bill would simply be a two-week version of the reckless measure the House passed last weekend. It would impose the same spending levels in the short term as their initial proposal does in the long term, and it isn't going to fool anyone. Both proposals are non-starters in the Senate.
"Just today, a nonpartisan study by Goldman Sachs found that Republicans' proposal would drag our economy back into a recession, cutting U.S. economic growth by as much as two percentage points in the second and third quarters. Enacting these draconian cuts over two weeks would mean immediate, devastating impacts to the health of our economy and the safety of our communities.
"Democrats have already proposed $41 billion in cuts and we are eager to sit down with Republicans to find more. But Republicans are refusing to negotiate. Instead of working with Democrats to find more cuts, they are threatening to shut down the government and drawing lines in the sand. Their recklessness could send our economy into a tailspin. It is time for cooler heads to prevail in the House, and for Republicans to come to the table."

Hi there,
Can anyone tell me whether I can use this template:http://themecanon.com/themes/?theme=Trades

Where can I find instructions on this? Thanks a lot.
Hi thanks for the advice. I'll look into it. Still, the other theme seems more sophisticated. Do you think I can do it with my knowledge and where can I find info on that? Thanks a lot.
Forgot to mention, I also need the shop.Do I need to purchase this as well or anything else? http://codecanyon.net/item/php-responsive-online-store-with-paypal-cart/7022811?WT.ac=category_item&WT.seg_1=category_item&WT.z_author=whitespace

Hi everyone,
I would be very grateful for some advice. I'm starting a new business but I cannot afford a professional programmer. I'm quite experienced at building HTML pages with CSS from scratch since I've often done this for myself. However, I don't have any experience or knowledge in adapting templates, coding php, javascript or anything else. I'd like to use this template:http://themeforest.net/item/black-label-fullscreen-video-image-background/full_screen_preview/336949
Can I do this myself and where do I get the info how to dp this? Do I have to order anything else with the themeforest template, like an additional CMS?
Also, where can I get videos that relate to architecture and design?
Thanks a lot for any help.

Andie Anderson (Kate Hudson) is a writer who works for a magazine called Composure as the "How to..." girl. She is bored and wishes she could write more about important things, such as politics, economics, religion, poverty; stuff she actually cares about. She soon finds herself writing an article called "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days". The idea comes about when Andie's friend, Michelle (Kathryn Hahn), experiences a minor breakdown after yet another break-up. Using her friend as inspiration, Andie reveals how she will actually start dating a guy and drive him away but "only using the classic mistakes women make".
At the same time, advertising executive Benjamin Barry (Matthew McConaughey) is striving for a pitch to advertise diamonds. When they question Ben's knowledge about love, Ben bets he could make any woman fall in love with him if he wanted to. If he can make any woman fall in love with him before the upcoming company ball, in just 10 days, he can head the advertising for the new diamond company.
Ben's rival co-workers, Judy Spears (Michael Michele) and Judy Green (Shalom Harlow), who were at Composure magazine earlier and are aware of Andie's new assignment, conspire to have Andie and Ben meet that night and start their quests. Fortunately, that night Andie and Ben happen to be in the same place and as Judy and Judy refer to Andie as "the blonde with the pretty smile", Ben thinks it is a done deal.
Neither Andie nor Ben reveals their true intentions. Andie works hard to make Ben break up with her in order to complete her article. However, Ben continues to stick around in hopes of making her fall in love with him. Andie goes on to get Ben knocked out by talking aloud at the movie theater while watching a chick flick, rapidly moves her things into his apartment, acts overly possessive and sensitive at all times, ruins boys' poker night for him and his friends, and takes him to a Celine Dion concert when he was under the assumption he was going to see a New York Knicks basketball game.
Ben stays with her despite everything, and after coming very close to breaking up they attend couples counseling, led by Andie's friend Michelle. They agree, as a solution to their "problems", to visit Ben's family in Staten Island for the weekend. While holidaying together, Ben and Andie begin to form a genuine bond, playing card games with the family and learning to ride Ben's motorcycle. Upon arrival home Ben even refers to Andie as "his girlfriend".
Andie tries to explain to boss Lana (Bebe Neuwirth) that she cannot continue writing and publishing this article as she has "really got to know this guy", but Lana remains insistent upon it. Around the same time, Andie and Ben go to the company ball together where Ben's boss, Phillip (Robert Klein), meets Andie and tells Ben that he "met her, she loves you, you win". Seeing Ben's good news, Judy and Judy are instantly envious and set about to ruin it for their co-worker. They tell his close colleagues, Tony (Adam Goldberg) and Thayer (Thomas Lennon), that Andie knew about the bet all along and was playing along to help Ben win. Almost instantly, Tony and Thayer rush to Andie's side and beg her to keep quiet, when they do not realize she is still blissfully unaware. Almost simultaneously, Lana—who is unaware of Ben's role in Andie's "How To" article—reveals Andie's true intentions to Ben.
Upon learning of Ben's bet, Andie attempts to humiliate Ben by getting on stage and telling all he has prepared a "special treat": to sing a song. In an attempt to leave, Ben reveals they have prepared a "duet" and instructs his friends not to let her leave the room. They go on to sing a poor version of Carly Simon's "You're So Vain", which they describe as "one of their personal favorites".
They go their separate ways before Ben is shown Andie's article and encouraged to read it. She explains in it how she "lost the one person she ever fell for", and when he hears she quit her job at Composure and is on her way to Washington, D.C. for an interview, he chases her taxi and stops her. Once he accuses her of running away, they reveal their true feelings for each other and the film ends with Ben instructing the taxi driver to return Andie's belongings to her home, and then they kiss.

THINKstrategies –
Even as the debate continues about whether utility computing will become a reality, market researcher IDC is already challenging the conventional thinking about who will deliver on the utility computing promise. In a recent report, IDC suggests that the major Internet companies, such as Amazon, eBay, Yahoo, and Google, are poised to wrest utility computing business away from the established players and seriously disrupt the IT industry.
IDC's theory is based on the same trend that I reported in this column after attending a utility computing conference in March. At that conference, I listened as CIOs of major corporations indiscriminately referred to their various application, desktop and Web hosting service agreements as utility computing initiatives.
Yahoo is already reselling Web-hosting services. eBay is already a major clearinghouse for IT equipment and services. Google is developing knowledge management systems that could be sold as services to corporations. And Amazon could do almost anything it wants given its brand equity and supply chain infrastructure.
Taken in this light, IDC's suggestion that the Internet companies could become key utility computing service providers certainly seems plausible. Yet, I would argue, it is not probable.
The major IT vendors and outsourcers (IBM, HP, EDS, CSC, and others) have invested heavily in their utility computing products, services, and marketing campaigns, and most industry observers believe those companies are in prime position to capture the lion's share of the utility computing market -- when, that is, it emerges from its current embryoninc state.
But the Internet companies have an even bigger hurdle ahead of them than marketshare and mindshare: they will have to become true utility computing service providers. IDC draws a comparison between Toyota's successful transformation from a low-end manufacturer to a producer of high-end, luxury vehicles -- and the third largest automaker in the U.S. -- and the potential for a similar transformation of the mass-market Internet companies from commodity suppliers to utility computing providers. The difference is that Toyota didn't have to change its industry focus. Instead, it improved the way it operated. Not so for the Internet companies.
In order for the mass-market Internet companies to truly compete with the major IT vendors and outsourcers, they will have to fundamentally change their corporate missions.
Large-scale enterprises considering utility computing are not just looking for a new way to consume technology. They are looking for a new method of managing their technology needs. When IBM, HP, EDS or CSC discuss the benefits of utility computing with CxOs, they are not only promising to transform IT systems but also to take on the burden of managing those systems. Even when smaller, niche players like ASPs and MSPs approach enterprises with utility computing solutions, those solutions include out-tasking IT management hassles.
The consumer and small business (SMB) oriented IT services currently being offered by the mass-market Internet companies are point solutions directed to specific business needs. They don't include taking full management responsibility for their customers' IT operations.
If the Internet companies were to become true utility providers, they would have to make significant investments in hardware, software, and management technologies, investments that would severely impact their existing financial models. Moreover, the service delivery and customer support requirements that are part of a utility computing offering would significantly tax, or even deplete, their staff resources. These are high barriers to entry indeed.
I believe that the mass-market Internet companies are not looking to enter into utility computing wholesale but instead are looking for new, packaged IT services that they can easily resell to their vast customer bases. At the same time, the major IT vendors are in need of a new sales channel to consumers and SMBs, as most traditional VARs (value-added resellers) are too financially dependent on product sales to handle the economics of utility computing services. This very real opportunity for partnerships and strategic alliances between mass-market Internet companies and the major IT providers falls far short of the disruptive usurping of the utility market foretold by IDC.
Could Amazon, eBay, Google or Yahoo make a move to become a major utility computing service provider? Absolutely. But I believe they are far more likely to become important channels to market for the established players than direct competitors.

Inspections, Compliance, Enforcement, and Criminal Investigations
Sol Fish Traders 11/21/12
Department of Health and Human Services
|Public Health Service
Food and Drug Administration
College Park, MD
November 21, 2012
Melissa Yap
Finance Officer
Sol Fish Traders
Banisil, Tambler
General Santos City, Philippines
Dear Ms. Yap:
In response to a request by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for information associated with the processing of your tuna products, your firm provided your HACCP plan and supporting documentation for your tuna in an email dated May 19, 2012. Our evaluation of these documents revealed that your firm has serious deviations from the requirements of the seafood Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) regulation, Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 123 (21 CFR Part 123). This letter describes the deviations found, provides next steps for your firm, and gives our contact information.
In accordance with 21 CFR 123.6(g), failure of a processor of fish or fishery products to have and implement a HACCP plan that complies with this section, or otherwise operate in accordance with the requirements of Part 123, renders the fish or fishery products 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). Accordingly, your tuna products are adulterated in that they have been prepared, packed, or held whereby they may have been rendered injurious to health. You may find the Act, the seafood HACCP regulation, and the Fish and Fisheries Products Hazards and Controls Guidance: 4th Edition (the Hazard Guide) through links in FDA's home page at www.fda.gov.
We note the following serious deviations:
1. You must conduct or have conducted for you a hazard analysis for each kind of fish and fishery product that you produce to determine whether there are food safety hazards that are reasonably likely to occur and have a HACCP plan that, at a minimum, lists the food safety hazards that are reasonably likely to occur to comply with 21 CFR 123.6(a) and (c)(1). A food safety hazard is defined in 21 CFR 123.3(f) as "any biological, chemical, or physical property that may cause a food to be unsafe for human consumption." However, your firm's HACCP plan for (b)(4) does not list the food safety hazards of parasites and undeclared allergens.
a. With regard to parasites, your product description indicates that the tuna may be intended for raw consumption. Additionally, your Hazard Analysis Worksheet indicates that parasites (b)(4). Consequently, your firm is responsible for control of the parasite hazard.
b. With regard to undeclared allergens, your firm is responsible for ensuring the fish species is accurately declared on the labels to control the hazard of undeclared allergens (i.e., from the fish protein).
2. You must have a HACCP plan that at a minimum lists the critical control points to comply with 21 CFR 123.6(c)(2). A critical control point is defined in 21 CFR 123.3(b) as a "point, step, or procedure in a food process at which control can be applied and a food safety hazard can as a result be prevented, eliminated, or reduced to acceptable levels." However, your HACCP plan for (b)(4) lists only one critical control point, which is receiving.
Your process flow diagram references steps in your process such as (b)(4). Based on the reference to (b)(4), your firm needs to include a critical control point to ensure that the fish are maintained at or below the referenced temperature limit. Furthermore, because histamine formation is cumulative and because your products are intended as ready to eat (i.e., without a cook step), your firm needs to assess all processing steps where the fish are held unrefrigerated for significant periods of time to prevent time and temperature abuse. Alternatively, your firm may control temperatures at or below 4°C or implement the use of ice, to include monitoring the adequacy of the ice during processing with sufficient frequency to ensure proper cooling.
3. You must have a HACCP plan that at a minimum lists the critical limits that must be met, to comply with 21 CFR 123.6(c)(3). A critical limit is defined in 21 CFR 123.3(c) as "the maximum or minimum value to which a physical, biological, or chemical parameter must be controlled at a critical control point to prevent, eliminate, or reduce to an acceptable level the occurrence of the identified food safety hazard." However, your firm's HACCP plan for (b)(4) does not list a critical limit at the receiving critical control point for decomposition. FDA recommends a sensory examination that includes checking for noticeable and persistent odors of decomposition be completed. FDA also recommends that a processor reject the lot if 2.5% or more fish are found to be decomposed.
4. You must have a HACCP plan that, at a minimum, lists monitoring procedures and their frequency for each critical control point, to comply with 21 CFR 123.6(c)(4). However your firm's HACCP plan for (b)(4) does not list adequate monitoring procedures and frequency at the receiving critical control point associated with your histamine testing strategy to control histamine formation. Specifically, FDA recommends that firms test a minimum of 18 fish collected representatively throughout each lot (or the entire lot when there are fewer than 18 fish in the lot) to ensure a sufficient number of samples are collected to check for histamine formation. Additionally, the plan should also include the specific method of testing for histamine analysis.
5. Since you chose to include corrective actions in your HACCP plan, your described corrective actions must be appropriate to comply with 21 CFR 123.7(b). However, your corrective action plan for Fresh Chilled Whole Tuna at the Receiving critical control point is not adequate to control histamine formation.
a. The HACCP plan fails to include a corrective action for regaining control over the operation after a critical limit deviation. FDA recommends discontinuing the use of the supplier until evidence is obtained that the supplier's practices have improved.
b. The corrective action related to internal temperature monitoring is inappropriate because it does not prevent distribution of potentially adulterated products. For example, when internal temperatures exceed the listed critical limits, FDA recommends that firms conduct histamine analysis on a minimum of 60 fish representatively collected from throughout the lot, including any fish found to have temperatures that exceed the critical limit.
You should respond in writing within 15 working days from your receipt of this letter. Your response should outline the specific things you are doing to correct these violations. Your response should include documentation that would assist us in evaluating your corrections, such as a copy of any revised HACCP plans, at least five (5) product days worth of monitoring records to demonstrate that you have implemented the revised plan or plans, any verification records, and any other useful information. If you cannot complete all corrections within 15 days, you should explain the reason for your delay and state when you will correct any remaining violations.
If you do not respond or if we find your response inadequate, we may take further action. For instance, we may take further action to refuse admission of your imported fish or fishery products under Section 801(a) of the Act (21 U.S.C. §381(a)), including placing them on detention without physical examination (DWPE). FDA's DWPE is an administrative procedure whereby products offered for import into the United States may be detained without physical examination upon entry. DWPE information may be conveyed in FDA's Import Alerts. For your information, an example of an Import Alert that conveys information specific to foreign firms that are not in compliance with the seafood HACCP regulation (21 CFR Part 123) is Import Alert #16-120. This alert can be found on FDA's web site at: http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/cms_ia/importalert_25.html
This letter may not list all the deviations at your facility. You are responsible for ensuring that your processing plant operates in compliance with the Act and all applicable regulations, including the seafood HACCP regulation and the current Good Manufacturing Practice regulations (21 CFR Part 110). You also have a responsibility to use procedures to prevent further violations of the Act and all applicable regulations.
Please send your reply to the Food and Drug Administration, Attention: Philip Bermel, Consumer Safety Officer, Office of Compliance, Division of Enforcement, Food Assessment and Adulteration Branch (HFS-607), 5100 Paint Branch Parkway, College Park, MD 20740 U.S.A. If you have any questions regarding this letter, you may contact Mr. Bermel via email at email@example.com

About 15 years ago, Michael Kearns sat in the back of the Cathedral of the Madeleine with his then-fiancée, Miriam, impressed by the children's choir singing during Catholic Mass.
That awe remains today, and the couple produced a documentary about the only coed kindergarten through eighth-grade choir school in the United States.
"The Choir" is an 88-minute documentary about the students and staff of The Madeleine Choir School.
The Kearnses began filming in 2010 and finished editing in early fall 2012.
The couple plan to enter the film in international and national film festivals. It has screened several times at the Salt Lake City Public Library with positive feedback.
"These were test screenings to get it down to the last edit," Michael Kearns said. "And the audience was blown away. We were pleased with the early stuff."
Kearns said the documentary is available for purchase online at www.thechoirfilm.com for $25 including shipping.
He hopes the documentary will give more exposure to what he thinks is a little-known group.
"This choir is internationally known, and they sang at the Salt Lake City Olympic opening ceremonies," Kearns said. "I'm surprised that many people haven't heard them."

Two Russian navy ships are completing preparations to sail to Syria with a unit of marines on a mission to protect Russian citizens and the nation's base there, a news report said Monday. The deployment appears to reflect Moscow's growing concern about Syrian President Bashar Assad's future.
The Interfax news agency quoted an unidentified Russian navy official as saying that the two amphibious landing vessels, Nikolai Filchenkov and Caesar Kunikov, will be heading shortly to the Syrian port of Tartus, but didn't give a precise date.
Each ship is capable of carrying up to 300 marines and a dozen tanks, according to Russian media reports. That would make it the largest known Russian troop deployment to Syria, signaling that Moscow is becoming increasingly uneasy about Syria's slide toward civil war.

Willy Rizzo
Photographer whose portfolio ran from fashion and film stars to war reporting and industrial design
At the peak of his renown, Willy Rizzo was so well known as a photographer of film stars and celebrities that Hergé modelled the paparazzo Walter Rizotto on him for the Tintin adventure The Castafiore Emerald (1963). Rizzo was particularly associated with the French weekly Paris-Match, the first cover of which featured one of his images, but his work also embraced reportage, war photography and notable studies of dance. He also had a parallel career as a furniture designer.
Rizzo began to establish himself as a photojournalist at the end of the Second World War while still a teenager. By the time that he first went to America, not yet aged 20, he had already sold stories to leading magazines and newspapers, and had made…

The love/hate relationship between investors and stock markets continue…
Toying with investors' emotions again this week, the Dow Jones and our S&P/TSX index closed about 3.5% lower today. A pretty good hit to the solar plexus as tough SNL guys Hans and Franz would say. Turbulent times continue – I believe long-term market volatility is our new normal – let's get used to it. Looking at the big picture, much more long-term than any given market day, equities crashing are times to buy. No, I'm not crazy, I don't think. You're supposed to buy low and sell high, aren't you?
If I'm crazy then I have company. Fellow blogger Mike Holman tweeted today "Looking forward to do some buying today. I hear VEA is 5% off today." Great stuff Mike. I bought some AT&T myself, a small position, for my RRSP. AT&T (T:US) has paid dividends for decades. My kinda company folks. AT&T and many other blue-chip companies are taking a beating of late which is fine by me. Regarding AT&T, no matter what's going on in the world or with currency markets, people aren't going to suddenly give up their telephones, mobile phones, or broadband internet connections. If you did, you wouldn't be reading my blogpost right? 🙂
I also completed a brief interview with the Toronto Star today, so hopefully some more My Own Advisor will be headed your way. Stay tuned friends.
While on vacation this week, I not only enjoyed some amazing weather in Ottawa but some excellent articles from around the blogosphere. I encourage you to check them out as well.
Have a safe, healthy and happy weekend. Thanks for reading. See you next week!
The Big Cajun Man reflected on what it means to be an adult now.

The Terrapins hold long standing traditions of fair play and competition and true sportsman spirit. Their games are full of thrill and excitement. The fans and supporters of The Terrapins are known for their loyalty, optimism, and craziness. They always come in huge numbers to support their favorites. No matter if they win or lose, their fans give then full support by singing inspirational and celebratory songs. It is because of the fan craze for the Terrapins that The Princeton Review rated Maryland as #1 in its annual "Students Pack the Stadiums" ranking of collegiate athletic support in 2008..
The Terrapins fanatics show their support by practicing crazy things during matches like reading and shaking newspaper and yelling 'suck' during opponents' introduction and celebrating with fireworks and crackers. The Crew is a group that continuously supports the soccer team of the university. Their fans have songs for every moment, Victory Song, Fight Song, Alma Mater, Turtle Power and Heroes in a half-shell are popular Terrapins songs. Another attraction is University of Maryland's Dance Team. This dance team is part of the excitement and tradition of Maryland athletics.

All the sporting teams of University Of Maryland are headed by Athletic Department that is headed by Director of Athletics. The department has an Athletic Council and academic support facility. Currently headed by Deborah A. Yow, the department always has one Senior Woman Administrator and one Faculty Representative that handle duties in their specific areas. The foundation of this program began with the formation of Maryland Agricultural College and the formation of the University of Maryland back in 1856. Between 1921 and 1953, the Terps were part of the Southern Conference. On May 8, 1953, Maryland seceded with six other Southern Conference schools to form the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC). Since then, they have been playing various men and women sports. The current enrollment of The Maryland Terrapins is 35,329.
The Athletic Department provides top-notch facilities to all the teams. The University has many grounds for its home games. The Football and Men's Lacrosse team play their games in Byrd Stadium that has a capacity of 51,500 audiences. Comcast Center holds Men's and Women's Basketball games. Comcast Center Gymnasium is used for Gymnastics, Volleyball, Wrestling. Shipley Field while Robert E. Taylor Stadium holds Baseball and Softball championships respectively.

Other prominent venues include Kehoe Track at Ludwig Field, Campus Recreation Center Natatorium (for swimming and water polo), Field Hockey & Lacrosse Complex and Field Hockey and Wrestling Practice Facility.
Two of the most popular Terrapins teams are football and basketball teams. The Terrapins football team has won many championships including two national championships, nine ACC championships, two Southern Conference championships, two perfect undefeated seasons, numerous All-Americans and Hall of Fame inductees, and 22 bowl game appearances. The Basketball team has emerged as winner six times in total comprising 0f 3-3 win for both Men and Women teams. Another sport in which The Terps excel is Lacrosse where Men's team has won five championships and Women's team has got three titles till yet. The Terps has also performed well in Baseball, Women's Basketball and Men's golf and emerged as winners two times in each game. The Swimming and Diving team outperformed others by winning seven championships in total; while the Men's tennis team and Men's Ice Hockey teams have been ACC Champions two times each in 1957, 1964 and 1999, 2001 respectively.
The Terps do not have a single generally recognized rival overall, but The Maryland' rivalry with Duke in men's basketball, Penn State University and Virginia in football and Johns Hopkins in Lacrosse take on interest of many and their games always make headlines. The Terps always ensure a thrilling and exciting ride for their supporters, and always make them proud with knockout performances.

Gill fired as Kansas football coach
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – Kansas fired coach Turner Gill on Sunday after two losing seasons and with three years remaining on a contract that still owes him about $6 million.
The school announced the move in a news release Sunday, the day after the Jayhawks lost 24-10 to rival Missouri and finished the season 2-10.
Gill was 5-19 at Kansas. He was hired by Athletic Director Sheahon Zenger's predecessor, Lew Perkins, and given a five-year, $10 million contract.

INTERACTIVE: Football coaches salary database
The university says Zenger informed Gill of his decision late Sunday afternoon. He also said he would honor the terms of Gill's deal.
"After a thorough evaluation of our football program," Zenger said in a statement, "I have concluded that new leadership is necessary to place us on the path toward competing for championships in the Big 12 Conference. I come to this conclusion reluctantly, because I have the utmost respect for Turner Gill as a quality individual who wants only the best for the young men he coaches."
Zenger said recruiting coordinator Reggie Mitchell would act as interim coach.
Gill came to Kansas from Buffalo, a perennially downtrodden Mid-American Conference team that he led to a league championship. At Kansas, he replaced Mark Mangino, who was fired in 2009 amid allegations he mistreated players.
Gill, a former star quarterback at Nebraska, said late Saturday that he had not spoken with Zenger, but sounded optimistic that he'll be invited back for another season — it took him three years to make Buffalo into a winner.
"I do think we made good progress," he said. "I guess it may be we have more to go than we anticipated, including myself coming in. I just think we can still get some things done here and move this program the right direction and do the things we need to do, win games and win bowl games."

Tehran (AFP) Feb 23, 2013
Iran said Saturday it will not go beyond its obligations or accept anything outside its rights under the non-proliferation treaty (NPT), ahead of talks with major powers on its disputed nuclear drive.
"We will not accept anything beyond our obligations and will not accept anything less than our rights," said the Islamic republic's top nuclear negotiator, Saeed Jalili, quoted by ISNA news agency.
"Iran has fulfilled its NPT obligations as an active and committed member, therefore (it) should gain all of its rights," Jalili said in an address to Iranian nuclear industry officials.
His remarks come ahead of a meeting between Iran and six world powers -- Britain, China, France, Russia, the United States and Germany -- in Kazakhstan on Tuesday.
The talks will be the first between the parties since three rounds of meetings in Moscow ended in stalemate last June.
The so-called P5+1 has called on Iran to scale back on uranium enrichment, the process that is used for power plant fuel and in higher purities needed for a nuclear weapon.
But they stopped short of offering Tehran substantial relief from UN Security Council and unilateral Western sanctions which have since last year caused major economic problems for the Gulf country.
Iran denies seeking atomic weapons but many in the international community suspect otherwise.
"The Iranian nation will defend its rights including its nuclear rights ... Iranian people do not accept to be treated as an exception in the world," said Jalili, who is also secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council.
"They have announced that they have imposed crippling pressures on the Iranian nation to give up its rights ... but despite the sanctions they have only witnessed Iranian people ... defending their rights," Jalili added.
"If the 5+1 wants to enter constructive talks, then they should enter it with a new strategy and proposals. We hope the 5+1 ... enter on a path that can win the Iranian people's trust," he said.
France on Thursday confirmed that world powers will make a "substantial" new offer to Iran at the talks next week in Kazakhstan.
"We will make a new offer that will contain significant new elements. We want a true exchange, leading to concrete results," said the French foreign ministry's deputy spokesman, Vincent Floreani, without elaborating.
According to media reports, the world powers could offer to ease sanctions on Iran's trade in gold and other precious metals.
On Thursday, US State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland urged Iran to consider "another path" than the nuclear bomb.
"They have an opportunity to come to those talks ready to be serious, ready to allay the international community's concerns, and we hope they take that opportunity," she said.
Talks between Iran and the UN atomic watchdog agency have been stalled for around a decade, with Tehran refusing to answer a number of demands from the International Atomic Energy Agency, saying they go beyond its obligations.

|Traffic Engineering Program
The Traffic Engineering Section provides general traffic engineering support services, traffic signal system operations management, traffic signal system design, capital project management, traffic data collection, plan review for encroachment permits and capital improvement projects, sight clearance inspections, and responses to citizen inquiries and requests. The mission of the Traffic Engineering Section is to provide for safe and efficient traffic flow throughout the City.
Key Personnel:
Traffic Signal System Upgrades FAQs - click on each question to see your answer
Q: How do typical traffic signals work?
A: In general, traffic signals operate predictably. Someone who drives a corridor on a regular basis will know the order of every movement (phase sequences), have a sense of how long they have to wait for their turn (cycle length), and know how long their light will be green (green time). Cycle length and phase sequences are fixed based on a "time of day" plan. The City's signals are programmed with minimum and maximum green times, which are triggered based on vehicle detection. Basically, traffic signals have been restricted to operate in a linear, predictable fashion.
Q: Why have the traffic signal light patterns on some of the streets in San Ramon have changed?
A: In August 2010, the City deployed a new traffic signal system at the following 14 intersections on Bollinger Canyon Road and Crow Canyon Road:
The new system is not restricted to fixed cycle lengths and phase sequencing. The new system is designed to use all available green time as efficiently as possible, which means phases will be served out of sequence and cycle lengths are no longer fixed. This system automatically adjusts the traffic signal timing in response to actual demand. It collects traffic data through video cameras that are mounted at each intersection, and each signal is communicating with the adjacent signal using the real time data to determine the optimum intersection timing and sequencing to minimize stopping and delays.
Q: How much did the project cost and how was it funded?
A: The $1.2 million system is funded almost entirely through Proposition 1B Traffic Light Synchronization Program and Transportation Fund for Clean Air grants.
Q: When I was trying to make a left turn, the light changed more than once before I was able to make it through the light. What happened?
A: The new system serves vehicles as quickly as possible based on delay. This operation will result in a different experience for drivers who are accustomed to the traffic signals serving most of the vehicles each phase. Also, the system attempts to utilize available segments of green time, which may result in a portion of the waiting vehicles not getting served with the first green light. Generally, drivers should notice an improvement in their commute time, although some drivers may experience a slight increase in delay accessing Crow Canyon Road or Bollinger Canyon Road.
Q: Why was I skipped today? I saw another movement get a green light twice before I got a green light.
A: Since the new system is not restricted to operate sequentially, it will serve movements "out of phase" as it tries to use every available block of green time. This operation can initially result in confusion for drivers who are accustomed to the traffic signals serving each phase in a predictable sequence, and some drivers may conclude that they have been skipped. Generally, drivers should notice an improvement in their commute time.
Q: Are the new white video cameras on the traffic signal poles used by the Police Department for enforcement?
A: No, the new cameras are used exclusively for the new signal system to detect when a vehicle is approaching a signalized intersection. The images are not recorded or used in any way by the Police Department. Also, license plates are typically not legible in these cameras.
Q: Would it be possible to review video footage of a traffic incident yesterday?
A: No. The video footage is not recorded or stored, nor can it be recorded or stored.
Q: Why was it necessary to change traffic signal systems? The old one seemed to work fine.
A: There are several reasons for the change: 1) The main benefit of the new system is compatibility with Caltrans' traffic signals. Currently, Caltrans' signals operate independently and are not coordinated with the City's traffic signals. The City is working with Caltrans to install the new system at the four I-680 off-ramp intersections on Bollinger Canyon and Crow Canyon Roads. The goal is to coordinate the operation of the City and State systems; and, once completed, the system is expected to significantly reduce stops and delays for the majority of drivers on Bollinger Canyon and Crow Canyon Roads. 2) As traffic volumes increase and decrease and traffic patterns change, traffic signal timing and coordination plans need to be updated. This is an expensive and time consuming process. The new signal system does this automatically on a daily basis.
Q: Why did the City Pay over a million dollars of taxpayer funds for a system that made getting in and out of my neighborhood more difficult?
A: Although delays have increased at some locations, the new system has produced very dramatic benefits for the vast majority of users. A study conducted by an independent consultant found that the new system eliminated an average of over 17,000 stops on Crow Canyon every day, and has reduced overall travel time by over 185 hours per day. In terms of user benefits, the current system will pay for itself in less than a year with savings exceeding one million dollars per year on Crow Canyon alone. Furthermore, the new system was the only one that offered the ability to synchronize the City's system with the ramp signals owned by Caltrans. This capability was seen as having tremendous value in improving long-term traffic operations.
Additionally, some increase in delay should be expected. As arterial traffic demand increases, side street delays increase as well. Synchronization on any arterial always results in some increase in delays for minor streets. This increase is generally accepted as an unavoidable side effect of synchronized operation. When operating properly, most users are likely to make up for the increase in delays as they should move through the arterial corridor much more quickly.
Q: Why do I see the people getting cut off because the green light is so short? Why do I see some people getting served with a green light twice while others have to wait?
A: There are a number of actions we can take to ensure that the green time is extended, but the unusual sequencing is part of the new system's unique logic. An understanding of the theory behind the new system operation may help explain why it often serves out of the traditional order.
The new system counts the number of vehicles in each lane, and sends the data to a computer to optimize the allocation of green time. It attempts to follow a timing sequence that best serves the greatest number of cars, without regard to the traditional sequence. To accomplish this, sometimes it serves a movement twice while others wait. We learned that the system tends to overprotect the main street traffic priority at the expense of the side streets. Consequently, we have made major system changes to improve service for the minor streets.
Drivers will need to get used to the new operation, and to be alert for green lights outside of the customary sequence. We have adjusted the signals at Tahiti Drive and Twin Creeks Drive such that excessively short green lights should be rarely seen. We will be monitoring green intervals to confirm that our adjustments have been successful.
