|[jira] Commented: (DERBY-827) Performance can be improved by re-using language ResultSets across Activation executions.
|Thu, 22 Mar 2007 09:56:32 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-827?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12483080 ] Dyre Tjeldvoll commented on DERBY-827: -------------------------------------- Thank you for looking at this. I have tried running with your patch in my sandbox with tracing and it does indeed seem to solve the problem I was seeing. However TimeHandlingTest still does not pass when reusing resultsets, but this seems to be due to an unrelated (?) problem. The problem appears to be that CurrentDatetime gets the current time by instantiating a java.util.Date object, but the test calculates the current time after the query has executed by instantiating a java.sql.Timestamp object with the value returned from System.currentTimeMillis(). When the test fails the number of ms returned from java.util.Date.getTime() is typically 1-2 higher than the value used to create the java.sql.Timestamp (even though this value was obtained AFTER the query had executed): class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.compile.ActivationClassBuilder.getCurrentSetup() class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.execute.CurrentDatetime.<init> class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.GenericPreparedStatement.execute(): activation.e xecute(): VALUES (CURRENT TIMESTAMP, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP),(CURRENT TIMESTAMP, CURR ENT_TIMESTAMP),(CURRENT TIMESTAMP, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP) class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.execute.CurrentDatetime.forget() class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.GenericPreparedStatement.execute(): rs.open() class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.execute.CurrentDatetime.forget() class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.GenericPreparedStatement.execute(): rs opened class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.execute.CurrentDatetime FRESH TS currentDatetime.getTime()=1174555658423 -- First row class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.execute.CurrentDatetime.getCurrentTimestamp()=20 07-03-22 10:27:38.423 class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.execute.CurrentDatetime.getCurrentTimestamp()=20 07-03-22 10:27:38.423 class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.execute.RowResultSet.getNextRowCore() currentRow ={ 2007-03-22 10:27:38.423, 2007-03-22 10:27:38.423 } -- OK so far class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.execute.CurrentDatetime.forget() class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.execute.CurrentDatetime FRESH TS currentDatetime.getTime()=1174555658426 -- This value is higher than the test expects, see below class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.execute.CurrentDatetime.getCurrentTimestamp()=20 07-03-22 10:27:38.426 class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.execute.CurrentDatetime.getCurrentTimestamp()=20 07-03-22 10:27:38.426 class org.apache.derby.impl.sql.execute.RowResultSet.getNextRowCore() currentRow ={ 2007-03-22 10:27:38.426, 2007-03-22 10:27:38.426 } -- Second row junit.framework.AssertionFailedError: CURRENT TIME after end of statement tsv=20 07-03-22 10:27:38.426 et=2007-03-22 10:27:38.424 start=1174555658411 end=1174555 658424 -- Fails because end=1174555658424 < currentDatetime.getTime()=1174555658426 But I don't think this problem is related so please go ahead and commit d827_execute_cleanup :) > Performance can be improved by re-using language ResultSets across Activation executions. > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-827 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-827 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Performance > Reporter: Daniel John Debrunner > Attachments: d827_execute_method_cleanup.txt, derby-827.extra.diff, derby827_draft_reuse_result_sets.txt, derby827_update920.txt, rsfromps.v1.diff, rsfromps.v1.stat, rsfromps_prelim.diff, rsfromps_prelim2.diff > > > >Shouldn't DistinctScalarAggregateRS implement a close or a finish method > >>(not sure what the difference is) and close the scan controller there. > The close() and finish() methods are actually explained in their javadoc > in the language org.apache.derby.iapi.sql.ResultSet class. > [note this is not a JDBC java.sql.ResultSet object] > close() - Tells the system that there will be no more calls to > getNextRow() (until the next open() call) > finish() - Tells the system that there will be no more access to any > database information via this result set > So close means the ResultSet may be opened again for more access, while > finish means it will not be used again. > However, their use in the code always doesn't match that, and that does > cause confusion, at least to me. > Language ResultSets (not JDBC ones) can be and are opened multiple > times, for example when scanning a table multiple times within a join. > An Activation, which represents the internal state of > java.sql.PreparedStatement object & has the lifetime of the > java.sql.PreparedStatement, contains a top-level language ResultSet. > This top-level language ResultSet provides the execution of the SQL > statement, DML, DDL or a query.

Now that we got all the facts out of the way, I will say that I consider myself as a creative, thoughtful and loving individual who likes to have fun…in moderation :P
My end goal is to be editing documentaries or something inspirational.
Just because I have a film degree doesn't mean I'm a movie buff.
However, I need to give shout outs to Slumdog Millionaire, Horrible Bosses, Titanic, I Am Sam, Les Mis and Moulin Rouge. I'm in LOVE with anything old school Disney (Frozen is so cute though), Studio Ghibli and PIXAR!

"I don't know, Lieutenant, but we'll go back over the ground again. I don't know how they managed to snatch it."
"Let me talk to Mitch, Jesse," Lieutenant Kahn said with an exasperated voice. "But first, tell me why you went out there alone, without backup."
I sat across Burton's desk from him, watching him frown and knit his brow as he listened to Jesse talk to him on the cell phone. The place had been pretty much deserted when I came in late. Just Kahn there, in his office. I expected him to light into me about being late, but he apparently had bigger fish to fry than me right at that moment.
"Was that Jesse? What's up?" I asked when Kahn got off the phone.
"Yes, that was Jesse. He's at Grand Central Station. That's where he was told to take the ransom money last night and where he lost it. The team's out there now trying to figure out what happened."
"He took the money to Grand Central all by himself? No backup?"
Now was the time for Kahn to round on me. He looked at me accusingly. "He said you were supposed to be his backup. He said he tried to get hold of you to meet him at Grand Central last night--that the guy making the ransom call didn't give him time to set anything up--but that he couldn't get through to you. I told you you shouldn't put the money up. Now a million dollars of yours is in the wind. But, yes, he did get backup there. Mitch met him there. But Mitch says he doesn't know how the money slipped away from them either."
I took a couple of minutes to process that, the wheels spinning and spinning in my brain.
"Damn it, why are you so calm about losing a million?" Kahn said, really letting his exasperation show through. "And where were you last night--and earlier this morning? Why didn't you respond to Jesse's call last night?"
"I still don't have it all together, Chief," I answered. "But I'm following some leads on my own, and I think I've just about got it worked out. I'm not that worried about the money. Want to keep my attention focused on Hank, though. I think I can put it all in place when I've managed to get in with the Rapinos. Call Jesse and tell him to come on in; we've got to get ready for that appointment with the Rapinos at the Silver Screen Underground nightclub this evening."
* * * *
I had gotten what I needed to know at the Silver Screen Underground nightclub within the first hour I'd been there. But I couldn't just get up and leave--from the looks of the goons standing by the door to the reception room Jesse and I'd been ushered to, I wouldn't have been permitted to leave--I could try, of course, but chances were good I'd just have to play this out and get out of here when I could and get a couple of related problems here wrapped up. What I really needed to do was to get to a telephone to talk to Lieutenant Kahn in private. Fat chance of that happening for a while, though.
The Rapino brothers had a pretty nifty idea with this new nightclub, I thought. The Gallery had been a struggling Broadway stage theater on Broadway and West 45th Street that had reopened as a movie theater. It had a great location, and it had a huge basement with a warren of rooms that had once been used as dressing and wardrobe and set and prop storage rooms but that no longer were needed for that. The Rapinos had bought the theater building and installed a nightclub in the basement space with separate party and theater venues for separate tastes in vintage movies. Some of the venues were rumored to be decidedly racy, and an elevator could take aroused partygoers up beyond the legitimate movie house to floors above where there were rooms for more private partying--along with space for whatever illegal gang purposes the Rapinos had going at the time.
I thought that naming a movie-based nightclub in the basement of a movie theater the Underground Silver Screen was a straightforward clever idea. But I didn't know the half of it.
Word had gone out on the street that the Rapinos wanted to hire someone appropriate to manage the nightclub, and I had snatched that information from the air from my street contact, Larry, when he'd given me a ride back to Manhattan from Brooklyn. My sometimes name, Clint Sloan--or rather my parents' classic movie star names--had gotten me an interview for the job.
While I was being kept waiting, the youngest of the Rapinos--and the only one we didn't have a police blotter on--Stefano, had been sent out to keep me occupied. He said he'd only stopped by on his way to class. He was a sophomore at Colombia and was studying American history. He said he wanted to be a professor. Stefano seemed quite a nice young man, and I could believe that he was the Rapino that the rest of them were trying to keep out of the business and wanted to have a start in some other line of work.
He was also a strikingly good-looking young man. Sultry dark looks, with dark, curly hair and a slim, but well-worked body. It was said that he was a son from the patriarch's last wife and must have gotten most of his good looks from his mother, because the mug shots of his two surviving older brothers, Mario and Drago, showed guys who were considerably more thuggish in looks. Not ugly, just dangerous looking. And big; not fat, just big.
And, speaking of looking dangerous, Drago was standing at a door, decked out in a dark blue silk robe and gesturing to me. "Mr. Sloan, is it?"
I nodded and rose. Jesse started to move from where he was standing nearby.
"Your man can stay here," Drago said. Jesse sat in the seat I had vacated, beside the young Stefano Rapino.
I was about to try to work my way, along with Jesse, out of the nightclub. Stefano had already revealed what I wanted to know. But Drago's appearance had cut off any chance of that happening. So, I went with the flow.
When we had chitchatted while we were waiting, Stefano had told me about his school and I told him about my life in Hollywood, going from the reality of my childhood to an imaginary story I spun of still being in Hollywood. I'd made a few references to his family and its businesses, but he appeared genuinely open on the legitimate businesses the Rapinos conducted--and equally genuinely ignorant of their gangland activities. I got what I wanted, though, when I asked him why he was here. What I had been fishing for was how much he knew of what went on here in this club, but what I got was far more.
"I'm waiting for my ride--back to Colombia. My brothers won't let me keep a car here in the city. I don't come here much, but my brothers are busy getting ready for a trip, and they wanted me to come here to get some instructions on what I could do while they're gone. They're really straight laced. They don't give me much rope."
Not enough rope to figure out what they're up to was what I thought. But what I said was, "A trip? Both of them?"
"Yeah. A big deal, I gather. Not just them; they're taking some of their associates too. They say it's a big convention. In Chicago."
"Chicago?" I couldn't help repeating. Bingo, I thought. That's what Hank was trying to convey to me by leaving Ron Price's name and telephone number for me. Ron was in the Chicago police. The Scarlottis had retreated to Chicago. And now the Rapinos were going to follow them there. There would be blood on the streets. Not on New York's streets, thank god. But that wasn't much comfort if Hank had gone to Chicago with the Scarlottis. He would be directly in the line of fire.
I had what I'd come for. It was time to try to beat a retreat. But then there was Drago in the doorway, beckoning to me. I'd have to carry through with the charade.
Drago led me down a wide passageway with richly carpeted floor, walls, and ceiling. I suppose the public explanation was that it protected patrons down here from the sound of the movie theater above--but that sound protection went both ways. I wonder if the sound of a gunshot from down here would be heard in the theater above. The passage was sloped and was, purposely, I'm sure, reminiscent of a movie theater corridor. Posters from classical movies hung in glass cases along the wall.
I watched Drago's butt as we walked. I had every reason to believe he was naked under that robe. I had thoroughly researched these guys. I knew what a job audition with them would entail. He had a good, big butt, though. In fact, he was very solidly built. Like a heavy-weight prize fighter. Not tall, nor fat, but thickish and built--big. I had experience in the equipment that a man built like that would have, and I felt an itch of anticipation. His head was shaved. From the back he looked like a prize fighter entering the ring. I had few doubts who would be in the ring with him.
He turned at a doorway and motioned me through it. The door shut with a solid thud behind us.
We were in a room that was maybe thirty by fifty feet, and from the door into the corridor we were facing a semicircle wall at the back. To my right, covering nearly the whole, two-story wall against the outer corridor was a flat movie screen. The room was in semidarkness and a movie was playing. A long, curved, whitish couch followed the curve of the wall, facing the movie screen. The couch was deep enough for even the tallest person to recline on.
Reclining on the couch, in the middle of the curve of the room, was Mario Rapino. I would have known him from his mug shots. But I also recognized him because I'd seen him in person, but from afar, at the Colorado dude ranch I'd been sent to to protect a novelist from being murdered by him. He hadn't gotten a look at me there--I hoped--and he didn't kill the novelist. As it turned out, I did that myself.
Mario was the oldest of four brothers. Drago was the next oldest. It was the sex-and-snuff murder of the third brother, Lorenzo, whose death Mario had come west to avenge. Stefano, who I had just met, was by far the youngest one--the one I believed, and hoped, was out of it all.
In contrast to Drago's near baldness, Mario was hirsute--and he had a profusion of salt-and-pepper hair, including, still, on his head. He shared a build with his brother, Drago. Thick, but not fat, barrel-chested, powerful muscles, the thighs of a soccer player. I knew all of this, because, like Drago, he was wearing a dark silk robe. But unlike Drago, he was reclining on the couch with his robe full open and his hand encasing a mean-looking erect cock.
"My brother, Mario," Drago said as we entered the small theater.
"Sir," I said. I gave no notice to Mario masturbating himself. I knew this for the test it was.
"So, you think you might want to manage our little club here?" Mario said. I could hear him fine. The sound on the movie was almost nonexistent. I was standing facing him, so, at that point I had no idea what was playing.
"Yes, sir. I've managed clubs in California."
"So my sources said."
I blessed the strength of my connections in Hollywood--based on the lingering legend of my actor parents.
"And your parents were . . ."
"Scott Sloan and Laura Lake."
"Ah, yes, that would be a big plus. Come here and stand in front of the screen in front of me, please."
I walked over to the center of the room.
"Ah, yes, the resemblance is striking," Mario said when I was standing in front of him.
I took a peek at the screen. It was a John Holmes movie, one I recognized. He was playing some sort of Arabian potentate, and he was fucking a muscle-bound young blond with what some, fancifully, I thought, had reported to be a fourteen-inch dong. The movie was a colorized version of a black and white porn classic. While I was moving to the center of the room, Drago went over to the couch, about ten feet from Mario. He sat, let the robe open across his lap, and he fisted a cock that looked bigger than his brother's.
"When you called, I believe my associate was quite explicit about the requirements of the job. Exactly what I expect in the way of loyalty from my employees."
"Yes, sir."
"Then strip down for me, please. I want to see what your qualifications are."
I did so and stood there in a model's casual stance. I could see that the cocks on both brothers were on the rise.
"Tell me, Clint Sloan, son of Scott Sloan. Do you give good fuck?"
"Yes, I think I do," I answered.
"Yes, I think you might. Your father certainly did."
I didn't know what to think about that. He was too young for my father. Mario wasn't more than ten years older than I was. Of course, who knows where Mario might have been in those days. For all I knew, he was one of the young, hopeful studs my father and his lover, the movie idol, Gordon Fields, had kept around the pool area at our ranch to entertain them and their friends.
"Come here, Clint," Mario said in a low, hoarse voice. As I moved to the couch and went down on it with my knee, Drago moved over to where, when Mario had taken my wrist and pulled me down, I was wedged between them. The two immediately began to work my body with their hands, exploring and gliding and pulling and pushing.
I could see the movie straight on now. I was puzzled. It was the same John Holmes movie I'd seen in stolen videos when I was young--and yet it wasn't. Holmes was more forceful in his fucking than I remembered. And the young blond was younger than I'd thought. And he didn't seem to be as willing. The movie was all about a slave being taken by an Arabian potentate, but in the movie I remembered, the blond was more into it and Holmes wasn't giving him the whole fourteen inches (or whatever). In this version everything was bigger, more, and approaching brutality--and Holmes was stroking to the root--hard and fast. This wasn't the same version I'd seen.
Drago pulled my face down into his lap, and I gave him head. Mario's tongue was at my hole.
The movie had changed when I found myself leaning out beyond the bottom edge of the couch, chest bowed out toward the movie screen, ass skewered on Drago's dick, feet hooked on his shoulders on either side of his head, and his fists gripping my wrists and pulling back like my torso was an archery bow. He was rocking my ass on his dick and I was enjoying the deep fuck. From the sounds he was making, he obviously was too.
I was doing fine before they segued into another movie. The young blond from the first movie couldn't have been any more finished from Holmes's fucking than if he was dead--for all I knew maybe he was.
This new--or rather, old--movie, though. This was something else altogether. It opened up with one man, shirtless and all bronzed muscle, in the woods, holding an ax, and being approached by another, younger, equally hunky shirtless man. They kissed, the younger man bending the older one back, mastering him, his hand going to the older man's basket.
Gordon Fields--going down on my father, Scott Sloan. I was in shock. It was the last film they did, High Timber, but then it wasn't. There was no way this scene was in the original movie. The original movie was a grade A blockbuster that played in the best movie theaters across the country--the last Scott Sloan movie, not shown until after his untimely death. This one was male porn.
"What do you think?" Mario was saying, his voice pleasant, his hand rubbing the small of my back as Drago continued to pull me back and forth on his cock. "As soon as we received your call, I sent down to the vault. This is one of my favorite movies. The original was High Timber. This remix was titled Big Timber. Fields fits the 'big' part, don't you think? Look at them."
Look at them? I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. When had they filmed this? I'd been there, up at Theo Klein's cabin for the early shoots--before they took the crew up into Northern California for the high timber shots. I'd even had a small part in that movie. A movie of two men, in the high timber, struggling for ascendance. The older foreman, the young interloper. But the message more psychological than sexual. At least in the original movie--the original parallel to two males, one the established stud bull, the other a young claimant, the two vying for dominance in the herd; the pornographic version, one male fighting for sexual domination over the other.
On the screen, my father, vanquished in the struggle for ascendance, was on the small of his back on a tree stump. Gordon was hunched over him, They were both naked and Gordon was fucking my father hard.
"Come on over here, baby," Mario whispered. "Sit on this. No, facing the screen. I don't want you to miss where this movie goes."
He pulled me over into his lap, facing the screen. Drago moved away and sat on the edge of the couch, watching Mario and me and stroking his cock. I lowered my channel on Mario's cock, as he groaned and I gave him the moan I knew he wanted. I was still thinking of the movie on the screen. I was remembering back twenty-one years--to a conversation I overheard on the patio at my parents' ranch by the pool. The producer, Theo Klein, and the director, Charles Tilton. They were whispering, but I could hear them, Tilton was trying to convince Klein to make an underground gay male cut of High Timber. Klein wasn't agreeing with him, but even at the time he seemed to be warming up to the idea. The undercurrent of homosexuality ran deep in films in those days--it was like hedonist Hollywood was thumbing its nose at the puritanical American movie audiences. Movies of that era were rife with an undercurrent of sexual innuendo. I had to admit that it was not such a big step from High Timber to the Big Timber version.
And now I knew that there was a similar double entendre to the name of the nightclub, the "Underground" in Underground Silver Screen taking on a whole new meaning.
"Watch this, baby," Mario murmured. "This blew me away when I first saw it. I couldn't wait to get you in here for this audition."
"Oh, my god," I exclaimed. I hadn't been prepared for this. My eighteenth birthday. I'd been there at the cabin in the mountains. A bit part in the original movie--but this, this I'd never imagined. And it fit right in with the recut of the movie, just like it belonged there.
So much in shock, I was like a rag doll as Mario hooked his legs inside mine and spread me, embraced my chest in his arms and pulled me back onto his reclined body, his cock deep inside me, his hips rhythmically playing me, his lips next to my ears, whispering a commentary of the me of twenty-one years earlier getting fucked on the screen--my first full sex session, my second fucking.
My eyes were glued to the screen. All these years and I had no idea an underground film had been made. I couldn't take my eyes off Fields as he moved over me--the me on the screen--and gathered up my thighs and hooked them on his hips--the young stud, having vanquished the old monarch, moving in to claim dominance over the rest of the herd. We were in the cabin. In Theo's cabin. It fit right in with the high timber setting. Rustic furniture in the cabin, me, on the bed, just in a flannel shirt unbuttoned and open wide on my young, heaving, eighteen-year-old chest. And boots. The timber boots, set wide and high over my body. The in cut flawless to the scene of Fields fucking my father on the tree stump--moving farther down the line in the herd.
Only my second time--right after Klein. My eyes so wide in fear and want, my mouth opening to a silent scream. I felt Fields inside me again--after all these years. I knew exactly from the expression on my screen face when he first entered me. Such a big dick. And I felt it all over again. The pain of it--the glorious release of it. I had waited so long. Bigger, much bigger than Klein, who had insisted on the right to be first. I panted with the panting youth on the screen.
Mario's hand began to glide over my chest and belly as I panted--misunderstanding probably that I was panting with the me on the screen, not with the Mario who lay under me on the couch facing the screen. Holding me to his chest. Arms embracing my chest; legs between mine, holding mine spread. Cock inside me. Slow pumping me as we watched me being fucked--for only the second time--on the screen.
Field's hips beginning to move. It had taken so long, so very long for him to get it all inside me. I moaned on the screen. Deeper. He was moving deeper inside me with each thrust. Only my second time. But the pleasure beginning to win out. I wanted him inside me. Just as I wanted Klein inside me. Klein sitting there, stroking himself. Murmuring to the me on the screen. Telling me how much he'd like to join Fields. Telling me maybe someday.
"We must fuck to some of the other films of you someday," Mario whispered in my ear. Even more titillating.
The other films? I screamed inside my head. Then I knew; then I remembered. The films the director, Charles Tilton, had taken in his basement torture chamber only weeks after the encounter I was watching on this screen--the films of him teaching me to want to be bound and punished.
I couldn't see the screen for a moment. Something was blotting out that world of the past. Drago. Naked. Crouching over me. Kissing me on the lips and then Mario.
"My brother," Mario whispers in my ear. "He cannot wait. He wants us both. He asks please."
"Yes," I whispered. Someday. Today was someday. There had been somedays before. This was blowing me away. I had thought I had what I wanted before I walked into this room. But now, now I was getting what I wanted.
"Oh, god. Oh, shit." I writhed away from the cock head, entering on top of that of his brother's. But Drago held my hips steady and grunted his determination. He was in an inch. I could see the screen again over his shoulder. Fields getting serious with the me on the screen now. Nearly all the way out, then slow in, out to the edge of the glans. Thrust! I scream on the screen. I screamed on the couch, as Drago became impatient and pushed all the way in, sliding in on top of his brother's cock. Fields no long seemed that big. Mario and Drago had done this before, I could tell.
Well, so had I.
Drago bigger than Mario. Drago wanted to power fuck. "Oh, Fuck."
* * * *
"We'll let you know," Mario said, all business, as I redressed.
I bet you will, I thought. But that phone no longer will work when you do call.
I stumbled out to the reception room, Drago and Mario letting me go by myself, because Drago was covering Mario on the couch now, fucking him.
In the reception room, all I saw were the two goons at the door.
"Where's the man who was with me--my bodyguard?" I asked.
"He left," one of the goons answered.
"Left?" I asked, incredulous.
"Yeah, Stefano's ride didn't come. Your man offered to drive him to his school."
"Oh, shit," I exclaimed. "Christ almighty," I followed that up with as I ran to the street. The Boxster was gone.
"Oh, fuck. I should have seen that coming."

Automatic External Defibrillators Recalled
MRL, Inc. a Welch Allyn Company Issues a Voluntary Worldwide Recall of Selected AED20 Automatic External Defibrillators Contact: Tom McCall 1-315-685-3696 / 1-315-857-7248
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- Buffalo Grove, IL -- May 10, 2005 -- MRL, Inc., a Welch Allyn Company, today announced it is initiating a voluntary worldwide recall of 597 AED20 Automatic External Defibrillators manufactured in Buffalo Grove, IL between February and July of 2004. The AED20 may display a "Defib Comm" error message on the device display during use resulting in a failure of the device to analyze the patient's ECG and deliver the appropriate therapy which prevents the defibrillator from resuscitating a patient. This problem occurs when an impact to the exterior of the AED20 causes a circuit board connector to perforate an insulation shield enabling an electrical short between the connector and the external housing of the AED20.
The company has received 12 related complaints with this specific group of AED20's, including one instance in which the short may have prevented patient resuscitation. This corresponds to 2 percent of the 597 recalled devices. The company has taken corrective action and no other devices besides those manufactured between the above dates are subject to this voluntary recall.

I'm starting to worry about not having any experience women. (Haven't held a girl's hand since middle school) Not for lack of trying. I've had some normal rejections, and some were downright weird. One had a boyfriend, but didn't mind fooling around. (Ran from her as fast as I could). Another ran back to a cheating ex the second she found out he was single (Two days after I got her number)
I have an okay job with pretty good pay, and live in a moderately sized town in the Bible Belt, where almost everyone my age has settled down years ago. (I'm always the only single person in any group). Lately I've heard and read some really disheartening comments about single guys my age. They've all been along the same lines. "Avoid any guy that old who hasn't been with someone, because there's clearly something wrong with him."

I just saw a question where the 'poor, artist/poet' is not considered attractive so here are some questions:
Is it the artsyness that is unattractive?
What if he wasn't poor, what if he was a bestselling author?
What if he was poor, and was a working class low pay day job, and liked to do art in the evenings?
What if he was also very masculine?
What other 'adaptions' could you make to the artist to make him attractive? Or is an artsy guy just not attractive to you, and if so, why is that?

Audience Dollar Value*: Roy Morgan launches new media buying and planning metric
Roy Morgan Research today announces the release of a ground-breaking set of metrics that calculate the Audience Dollar Value* of newspapers, magazines, television shows and channels, radio stations and websites across a range of consumer and business expenditure categories.
When we overlay magazine readership with expenditure in the exponentially growing online space for example, this new metric reveals that some magazines' online dollar value far exceeds their reach.
Audience Dollar Value* (ADV) redefines readership currency in terms of actual currency.
Delicious, Who, Frankie, Virgin Australia Voyeur and Marie Claire may lie outside the country's Top 20 magazines ranked by the number of readers per average issue. But each vaults into the Top 20 when magazines are ranked by their online shopping Audience Dollar Value*.
So what are really the Top 20 Magazines?
Source: Roy Morgan Single Source (Australia), July 2013 – June 2014. Sample = 48,947 Australians 14+
With their extra-wide reach, the country's five most-read magazines maintain their position in terms of online dollar spend value: a combined $123million a week is spent online by readers of Coles Magazine, with $88million spent by readers of Woolworth'sFresh, $76million by Better Homes and Gardens' readers, $68million by Women's Weekly's readers, and $53million by Woman's Day's readers.
With the ability to view audience through the new lens of Audience Dollar Value*, publishers, marketers, advertisers and agencies now have a new tool to help them make critical media selection decisions.
Audience Dollar Value* reveals that Delicious moves 15 places up the list to become the 9th most valuable magazine by total online spend ($30million a week). Who moves up seven places and Marie Claire three, to join the Top 20 at 14th ($23million) and 19th ($21million) respectively.
Frankie readers spend an average of $62 each online in an average seven days, propelling the magazine up 14 spots to become 15th by total online spend valuation ($23million). However Virgin Australia Voyeur makes the biggest leap into the new Top 20, rising 28 spots to 16th ($22million).
Already among the Top 20 by number of readers, Qantas' The Australian Way overtakes 11 publications to become the 6th most valuable by online spend: its 489,000 readers together spend almost $50m a week online, just over $100 a week each on average.
Five well-read magazines fall out of the Top 20 when scored on their ADV* online spend: Take 5, Reader's Digest, TV Week,Australian Geographic and Men's Health.
* Audience Dollar Value (ADV) is new media currency metric developed using Roy Morgan Research's Single Source.
Michele Levine, CEO - Roy Morgan Research, says:
"Our research shows that Australians spend an average of $750 million a week online. We are now using our online expenditure data to quantify the dollar value of magazines and other media in terms of their reach into the lucrative online market.
"In a media landscape where the debate seems to be traditional media vs digital media, this new perspective shows the power of traditional media to reach into and influence online purchasing and decision making.
"Audience Dollar Value* is certainly a first in Australia, and possibly the world. This new media metric connects readership, viewing and listening with expenditure. It provides the industry with a new tool to help determine the value of newspapers and magazines, television channels or programs, radio stations, websites and apps.
"Media owners, agencies and advertisers can now compare audience values within or across different media types, and by a range of categories including income and living expenses, and weekly credit card, online shopping or grocery spend, right down to specific consumer product categories such as menswear or perfume.
"And because business decision-makers consume media just like anyone else, we will soon also launch new reports revealing which media has what potential share in the trillions of dollars up for grabs in annual business expenditure across over 30 specific outlay areas. Stay tuned!"

Mudra has won the creative account and Optimum Media Solutions, the media duties, of United Educational Institutes Global (UEI Global) following a multi-agency pitch. UEI Global is a brand owned by Berggruen Education Pvt Ltd, which is a part of Berggruen Holdings, New York. The account size is pegged in the region of Rs 8-10 crore.
UEI Global is planning to invest nearly $20 million over the next three years in India and intends to scale up to 50 institutes by the end of 2009. The company is opening institutes across the country with professional programmes in the service sector, positioned as a 'school of service management'.
Kapil Chanana, Head Marketing, UEI Global, said, "UEI Global was looking at a partner who would not only help in strategising the communication, but also help in building the brand personality. We wanted an agency that would help in providing a 360-degree exposure and had experience in building brands from scratch. Keeping the above in mind, Mudra fitted the bill perfectly. The agency comes with the complete understanding of the business and the market. Their 360-degree approach to advertising would definitely help in taking the brand forward."
Sanjay Sharma, Executive Vice-President, Mudra Delhi, said, "It's an exciting opportunity for us. The service sector in India is growing at a phenomenal rate and today it accounts for more than half of India's GDP. Aviation, hospitality and retail sectors are booming in the country, but the biggest challenge facing the industry is shortage of educated workforce. And UEI Global would be addressing this very issue."
UEI Global is starting the initiative with Bharathiar University, which has been set up in Coimbatore by the Tamil Nadu Government. Apart from offering a three-year degree in hospitality management, they would also be introducing unique one-year fast track programmes, where the students would get the opportunity to earn while studying. Courses would be offered in service management, including retail management, aviation, travel and tourism, personality development and language, and similar international alliances would be made for these courses as well.

|Deity of Christ
In Christianity, Jesus is taught to be both fully human and fully God. In the Bible, there are numerous passages that show Jesus' divinity. In the Gospel of John the opening statement tells us that Jesus, the Word, is God. Jesus himself said that He and the Father were one.
C.S. Lewis on the deity of Jesus
- "A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said woul not be a great moral teacher. He would be either a lunatic - on the level with a man who says he is a poached egg - or he would be the devil of hell. You must take your choice. Either this was, and is, the Son of God or else a madman or something worse. You can shut Him up for a fool or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us."

In Italy, Walnuts Are Prized by Home Cooks
By LINDA RICHARDSON, Special to the New York Times
Published: November 25, 1987
PERUGIA, Italy, Nov. 24— Each fall, the harvesting of walnuts generates nearly as much excitement among Italians as the hunt for wild porcini mushrooms.
Nearly every farm in the hardwood regions of central Italy has at least two walnut trees tucked into the corner of a field or towering majestically over the driveway.
Unlucky homeowners whose hundred-year-old trees bend over a thoroughfare must compete with passers-by for the nuts, and it's not uncommon to see weekenders from the city leap from their cars to raid the trees in public parks.
Early-morning shoppers at village markets quickly snap up the day's offering of just-picked local walnuts, the meats still soft and moist.
Occasionally, an enterprising farmer will station himself in the middle of a busy highway with a huge stack of 5-and 10-kilo bags of walnuts to sell. A couple of traffic jams later, the farmer is on his way home with an empty truck and a full wallet.
Italy, once the third-largest producer of walnuts in the world (after the United States and France), is now struggling to meet domestic demand because a blight has killed half the country's walnut trees.
However, new grafted species are being successfully grown, and the annual rush to gather fresh walnuts continues unabated.
Although the two nuts most often used in Italian cuisine are pine nuts and hazelnuts, walnuts have a special place in cucina casalinga - home cooking - and particularly in the preparation of festival foods.
Italian recipes calling for walnuts go back many centuries. It was probably the first nut cultivated in Italy, and history credits the Romans with introducing the tree to England.
The Italians use the walnut in many of the same ways Americans do, but often with a special twist. In Italy, fall and winter are the seasons to buy and store walnuts, and by June, it's difficult to find them in the smaller towns. Summertime consumption of walnuts drops in direct proportion to the rise in temperature.
Walnuts grow well on the farmlands of Umbria, the landlocked ''green heart'' of Italy, and their distinctive taste is found in a wide variety of the region's traditional dishes.
Sourdough bread is not usually associated with Italian cooking, but its tangy taste is a perfect foil for the plain roasted poultry and meats favored by Umbrians. Adding hard cheese and walnuts turns a basic sourdough recipe into an exceptionally savory bread.
In the days when bread was baked daily in every Italian home, the use of a sourdough starter to leaven the bread made a great deal of sense. The starter was kept as an ever-ready lump of dough in the madia, a dry sink used for kneading and rising, and the starter was replenished with fresh flour and water each morning.
Today, the starter can be stored almost indefinitely in the refrigerator. Although there is no way to shorten the five-day fermentation period necessary for the first batch of sourdough starter, making it is a one-time job that takes five minutes.
Ounce for ounce, walnuts have nearly as many calories as butter and almost as much protein as steak. They are an important ingredient in a nourishing, old-fashioned pudding that the Italians call brustengolo. Brustengolo, based on cornmeal polenta, is a healthy sweet that is equally good hot or cold, for breakfast or dessert, with sweet cream or a glass of Marsala.
Walnuts add a delicious dimension to a company entree of sauteed filet of beef flavored with a Gorgonzola sauce. Because American beef is aged longer than Italian beef, the accompanying recipe produces a dish even more savory in the United States than in its homeland.
Good quality cutlets of veal or breast of turkey also go well with the simple sauce, provided the meat is tenderized by pounding before it is sauteed.
In Umbria, a Christmas dinner would not be complete without a first course of maccheroni con noci e cacao - macaroni with walnuts and, yes, cocoa. Because of the richness of the dish, it is advisable to serve small portions, but don't be surprised if there is a demand for seconds. Pane Nociato (Sourdough bread with walnuts) Preparation times: 5 minutes for the starter, plus 5 days for fermentation 1 1/2 hours for the bread Cooking time: 30 minutes The starter:
1 envelope dry yeast or 1 package active yeast 1 teaspoon sugar 1 1/2 cups warm water (115 degrees) 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour The bread: 1 envelope dry yeast or 1 package active yeast 1 teaspoon sugar 1/4 cup warm water (115 degrees) 1/2 cup chopped walnuts 1/4 cup freshly grated pecorino or parmigiano-reggiano cheese 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 1/2 teaspoon salt, if desired 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 3/4 cup sourdough starter (see recipe above) 1 1/2 cups whole-wheat or cracked- wheat flour 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1 1/2 teaspoons butter, approximate ly, melted 1 tablespoon milk mixed with 1 tablespoon egg white.
1.Proof the yeast for the starter with the sugar in the warm water. Add the flour, and beat until smooth. Pour into a glass or pottery container and cover loosely. Do not refrigerate.
2.Stir or shake the mixture once a day for five days, or until the naturally sour odor of sourdough bread is present. Cover and refrigerate until needed. Stir well before using.
3.For the bread, proof the yeast with the sugar in the warm water.

What tips or pointers do you have for using the 3" cake pans?
Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Will someone PLEASE help me?
I bought the pans a couple years ago, then read negative comments about using them, so put them in storage. Now I have to make a tiered cake and would prefer not to have to buy new 2" pans, if I can find out what I need to do differently with the 3" pans.
Searched the archives, but didn't find what I was looking for.
Any help would be appreciated!
I use the 3" pans quite abit. What sizes do you have? If they are small like 6", 8" and 10", be sure to use a flower nail in the center to heat the center. If you are using a 12" and up, use a heating core--grease and flour the outside and inside of the core, place in the center of the pan, pour in batter around core and then some inside the core.
When cake is finished baking and cooled a bit, remove core, dump out small cake inside and push in the hole in the cake. Level with the rest of the cake.
I was having problems with my 3 in pans not getting done, so I got a heating core and also the bake even strips. I'm doing much better now!!
Macsmom, do you usually lower your temp a bit and increase your cooking time when you're using 3 in pans, or do you find the heating core /flower nail to be enough?
I lower the temp by about 25 degrees, bake for 1 hour for 8" x 3" and use the bake strips. They turn out perfect and nice and flat on top. I've never tried the flower nail.. thanks for the idea, I will try it next time.
Thanks Mare. Definitely not leaving mine in long enough. For 8x3 I was checking after 30 minutes and wondering why it wasn't done
Now I know better. I wonder if this was my problem with my WASC that weren't coming out about 2 weeks ago. I was taking them out way too early!!
the 3" pans definitely take a longer time to finish, and i use a flour nail in them. I don't have the bake even strips, so that is probably why i get a dome, but the one 3" pan i have is great.
My 3" pans are Fat Daddio's and they do bake better at 325.
Thanks Mac! And now I'm confused. Were you Macsmom before, or did I totally confuse you with someone else
AGREE!! i USE NOTHING BUT THE 3". Fill 3/4 full, lowere temp to 325 abd bake 1 hr. Nice even cooking. Perfect every time
Thank you all SO MUCH for your help!
I'm planning to use the 6, 8, 10 & 14" pans (I think!). Depends on the number of servings I'll need. This cake will be for our 50th anniversary party in July. I believe in planning ahead!
Armed with the information you all have shared, I'm feeling MUCH better about using the 3" pans.
Thanks, again!
No-always been Mac. There is a macsmom here on CC and no, she's not my mom.
My maiden name was McAlpine. In high school, there were 2 of us Pam's that ran around together--she was Pam and I became Mac. It stuck!

Phil Collins Says He Is Not Close to Coming Back
Over the past few years, we've seen a lot about Phil Collins wanting to record and perform again. However, he reveals in a new interview that we shouldn't hold our collective breath because he hasn't even started writing the first song and is not planning on mounting a tour.
"Well, I've got loads of bits," he tells Consequence of Sound, "undeveloped bits that I will probably visit. My studio is being set up next week. So I'll turn it on and sit down at a piano and see what happens."
Collins recently moved to Miami and says that his younger kids are the reason why he's going back to work. "[W]hen I'm not doing something and they're at school, I'll sit and start writing and see what goes on," he continued. "I mean, I haven't written in such a long time that I need to get back into the groove of it, the rhythm of it. And I've got lots of ideas. I've got lots of bits that I haven't developed that are just sitting there, and I've even got some lyrics that need music, so I've got things to start on."
As for touring, it's been blown way out of proportion. "I have said that I would like to do a few shows," he added, "and now people are saying, 'You're going back out on tour,' but I'm not going to go back out on tour [….] Same thing with the record. People are saying I'm making a record, and I'm not. I haven't written a song yet. I'm putting things with you in perspective. It's not exactly as you read it. Things have kind of been elaborated upon to make a better story, but I'm not sure how that will take shape yet."
Collins announced that he was officially ending his retirement towards the end of 2013. Six months later, he sang "In the Air Tonight" and Genesis' "Land of Confusion" with the band from his kids' middle school. In December 2014, he was set to perform a mini-set as part of a benefit for the Little Dreams Foundation, which he founded in 2000 with his then-wife, Orianne, with whom he has reconciled. But his portion of the evening was canceled due to "some sort of neurological affliction that he said strikes every now and then." Collins has not played a full-length concert since 2010, when he toured in support of his covers album, Going Back.

Über Sofia
About me:
Even in my earliest memories there's a dog as a member of my family. When I was 4, it was me, my parents, my brother, my sister and Pancho (a huge Irish Setter) living in a city apartment in Montevideo, Uruguay. Then we moved to a house on the beach and introduced Marilyn (a Chihuahua) to the equation.
About my place:
Now I live with two friends (Miro and Tung) at our 4 bedroom apartment next to Victoriapark in Kreuzberg. So, no matter the size, a dog will always have its place on my place. Mi casa es su casa.
About the neighbourhood:
There are a lot of green areas and a couple of dog parks on my area. For a short walk, I like to go up and down Victoriapark or do the whole Tempelhofer Feld round. Or, if the weather is nice, I just grab a book and take the dogs to the dog park at Tempelhofer Feld, where they always meet new friends.

Thank you for checking out my profile. I am Guapa, my name is a native word from where I come from; Bohol - a wonderful place in Philippines. I pride myself of being a Filipina. I love modeling, it's my passion. Always like to have my picture taken...and believes that evoking emotions are true expressions to my images. I have done some commercial and some runway work back in my college days in Phils. and want to continue doing it here in the US. For me, modeling is not just about looks, weights and heights at all but its about CONFIDENCE and CHARACTER.
I also love to sing, I have been a dreamer to become a singer someday though*winks!
I am looking forward to meet Photographers, Modeling Agencies that would want me to work with them. I am interested in doing Fashion, Glamour, Lingerie, Print, Commercial and Swimwear...but not nudity.

Taste of Country Nights with Sam Alex airs weeknights from 7 PM to midnight. Hear today's best country hits, the latest country music news, phone calls, interviews and in-studio performances with the hottest country acts.
Sam Hunt has been one of country's music's hottest bachelors, but he says he'd like to settle down and raise a family someday.
Garth Brooks admits that he's not the biggest Halloween fan in his family, but there is a costume he pulled off one year that's timeless. For years, the holiday was just a day to celebrate with his daughters.
Tara Thompson is extra busy these days. She's putting the finishing touches on her album, and she's getting ready to host the CMA Awards red carpet broadcast with Taste of Country Nights. She stopped by the studio to chat about what's to come.
Rascal Flatts will be busy this summer. The trio are out on the road for their Rhythm and Roots Tour with Kelsea Ballerini and Chris Lane. They say it'll be a "great summer" — well, as long as they actually get to know their tourmates.
Cam is nominated for Best Country Solo Performance at the 2016 Grammy Awards, but she didn't learn the good news in a traditional way, like from a formal letter or a visit to the Grammy website, she tells Taste of Country Nights.
If 2015 was a year of big changes for Jennifer Nettles, then 2016 will be a year of big debuts. She's got new music coming out in the form of a new album titled Playing With Fire, which she dished about during a visit to the Taste of Country Nights booth before the CMA Awards.
LeAnn Rimes is back in the swing of things with a new, full-length Christmas album, Today Is Christmas, released in October.
Granger Smith hasn't always been proud of his Halloween costume choices — in fact, one year, he admits he really embarrassed himself. Smith recently came to the ToC Nights Studio and got real with us about that awful costume from his past.
Ronnie Dunn is a representative of what's now considered classic, traditional country, but that doesn't mean he's not open to change.
Thomas Rhett's new album, Tangled Up, is finally out and the Georgia native is pretty excited.
Lady Antebellum are planning a few months off, and Dave Haywood says he's looking forward to relaxing ... and getting back to work. Sure, it seems like the two ideas conflict each other, but when you hear him explain what he's got planned, it all makes sense.
Dustin Lynch is a tough country man, but he's not too tough to admit that he cries. The singer stopped by the Taste of Country Nights studio to chat about his new single, "Hell of a Night," opening up about the possibility of it topping the charts and what that might do to him.

I see a lot of positive feedback regarding smoothing but no mention of slimming effect. I'm considering either Exilis or Cellulaze for very pronounced saddlebags w/ what I'm guessing would be a first level grade three cellulite -- deep furrows and dimples, much less visible when lying down. Want to look better in clothes, not just naked, so which proceedure would allow me to go down a size or so in pants?
Cellulaze or Exilis for Volume Loss?
Doctor Answers 1
Cellulaze or Exilis
{{ voteCount >= 0 ? '+' + (voteCount + 1) : (voteCount + 1) }}
{{ voteCount >= 0 ? '+' + (voteCount + 1) : (voteCount + 1) }}
These are entirely different procedures as Exilis is non invasive fat contouring while Cellulaze is for cellulite. Exilis does not work for cellulite. Cellulaze is slightly more invasive also.

By Congresswoman Carol Shea-Porter
Tomorrow is Memorial Day. It feels like the start of summer. The days are warmer; the mud and snow are gone. We in New Hampshire hear the call of our lakes and mountains. We pack our cars and visit our favorite spots in our jewel of a state.
As we settle into this first summer weekend, it is easy to forget what Memorial Day is really about - and how we got here.
Memorial Day was first celebrated in the aftermath of the Civil War. It was a day to remember those who fought and died in the bloodiest and most divisive war ever fought on American soil.
In a true sense, Memorial Day is not a "holiday." Rather,it is - in the original meaning of the word - a "holyday," dedicated to the memory of those who have sacrificed for us. On this day, we honor those who have given their lives for their country - in World War II, Korea,Vietnam, the Gulf Wars, Afghanistan, and other conflicts.
Across the country, millions of flags will be unfurled. Millions of candles will be lit in remembrance. Rivers of tears will be shed for those who have died too soon.
This Memorial Day has special, painful meaning. We don't have tolook far into our past to find heroic sacrifice - we read about it in the papers every day. Just this month, over 70 US service members gave their lives in Iraq. In the past four years, over 3,400 made the ultimate sacrifice.
Today we will honor those men and women, just as we have honored those who fought in wars of the past. They served heroically under the most difficult of circumstances.
As we honor the memory of those who have fallen, let us also recognize the sacrifices of the living. Thousands of soldiers are returning home with serious injuries. They too are heroes and they deserve our greatest respect.
But they also deserve the resources they need. If we truly honor our soldiers and veterans, we must honor our commitments to them and to their families. President Lincoln summed up our nation's responsibilities beautifully in his Second Inaugural Address (1865):
"... to bind up the nation's wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan-to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace, among ourselves, and with all nations."
This Memorial Day, we must do more than just remember the fallen. We must dedicate ourselves to sharing their sacrifice. Let us find the moral courage to match their physical courage. Let us re-dedicate ourselves to the principles for which our country stands.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 17/11/2016 (278 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Firefighters are paying for ads out their own pockets in an effort get the word out about a deadly fentanyl crisis in the city.
For the next two months, the 30-second spot will run on TV, radio and in movie theatres.
"Firefighters and paramedics respond to overdoses every day," says Alex Forrest, president of the United Firefighters of Winnipeg, in the ad, "and although they respond with Narcan, you have to be alive for it to work."
Flanked by two city firefighters and a Manitoba MLA at a press conference Thursday, Forrest put the out-of-pocket cost at about $50,000.
"If these ads save one life, it will be worth it. We know how slow bureaucracy is; that's why firefighters are putting their own money into it," Forrest said.
"Fentanyl use has gone through the roof," Winnipeg paramedic Derek Balcaen told the Free Press.
He said people have probably seen victims on the street and not recognized they'd overdosed.
"One of the dangers to this, is someone who isn't breathing from a fentanyl overdoses looks identical to someone who may have had a heart attack or is just having a snooze somewhere on a bus bench or in a park. You might not recognize what's actually happening," Balcaen said.
Balcaen said the frequency of calls, from everywhere across the city, is alarming.
"I've been a paramedic for about 12 years and in the beginning we might have had a couple of overdoses a year. It was nearly uncommon. Now, it's coming in several times a day. I heard from a firefighter yesterday; between 8 a.m. and 11 a.m. he'd already had three separate people overdose. It really is an epidemic," Balcaen said.
Balcaen recounted a recent evening call that came into a downtown fire hall. He was among the responders: "We got dispatched to a coffee shop, a very well frequented coffee shop. Not your stereotypical location. We're expecting a couple of people who had too much alcohol. These two patients were younger people, well dressed. Again, they didn't meet the stereotypical idea of what a drug user looks like," Balcaen said.
"All of a sudden I realize these people were only breathing two breaths a minute, they've very, very close to death. We determined they'd overdosed on fentanyl. We proceeded to administer Narcan ( the fentanyl antedote also known as naloxone)
"I'm happy to say they're still with us," Balcaen said.
Forrest predicted the city and the province will catch up with the firefighters are with their own campaigns. Part of the motive for firefighters to put their own money into ads is simple self-preservation.
Three grains of carfentanil the size of a grain of salt are enough to kill someone, Forrest said.
"We're not only dealing with an unbelievable number of overdoses throughout the whole city, everything from downtown to the suburbs. It's also dangerous for firefighters, police officer and paramedics because it's very easy for them to ingest it accidentally," Forrest said.
The removal of three bodies of victims of an apparent fentanyl overdose from a house in the Maples took hours Wednesday, in an effort to protect emergency crews from exposure, he said.
"That's how dangerous this situation is," Forrest said.
"We're getting tremendous support from the province and the city, we're hoping they'll come to us and give us a slap on the back and help us out financially.
"I believe now we're starting this, you're going to see the city and the province take the lead very quickly," Forrest predicted.
Last year, the Winnipeg Fire and Paramedic Service reported paramedics and firefighters responded to 96 calls involving fentanyl in which the opioid poisoning antidote naloxone (known by the trade name Narcan) was administered. That was in the first 10 months of the year.
Reports from Manitoba's Office of the Chief Medical Examiner Thursday showed the number of deaths linked fentanyl nearly doubled in the last two years.
Fentanyl was cited as a contributing or primary factor in 20 overdose deaths in 2015. That number is up from 13 deaths linked the drug in 2014 and 11 deaths in 2013.
Kelvin Goertzen, the province's health minister, is in Ottawa attending an Opioid Summit on the national crisis Friday and Saturday.
There have been hundreds of overdose deaths reported in Canada; cities like Vancouver, Toronto and Winnipeg appear to be emerging as epicentres of the drug epidemic.
It's not easy to get hard data on the number of overdoses and deaths from fentanyl and it's far more deadly cousin carfentanil in the city this year.
Anecdotally, firefighters, paramedics and parents of victims say overdoses are a daily occurrence.
The mother of one addict said she's counted seven deaths among friends and acquaintances in recent weeks.

Here's a great tip for you gardeners. You can buy a large bag (approx. 20lbs) of oil absorbent from your local auto parts store for less than ten dollars, and it has multiple benefits. It also acts as a great fertilizer; says so right on the bag.
My Japanese Red Maple loves lots of fertilizer, so if you have one that is not flourishing with a good rich color, give it more fertilizer. Triple 13 works well also. But, with the oil absorbent you get the extra benefit of drying up spills and oil leaks, as well as the added benefit of fertilizing your rose bushes, trees,shrubs, and of course the Japanese Red Maple. Happy gardening.
By Clarcov08 from Memphis, TN
Editor's Note: Make sure that you get the type of oil absorbent that is OK to use as a fertilizer. Most are made with wood chips or some other natural material.

Thank You! A great idea! Who knew?
Go in your local animal feed store Blue Seal, Agway and you can get 50# of fertilizer for 10-12 dollars.
5-10-10 or 10-10-10. If you do not understand the numbering system ask them they will explain it to you.
5-10-10 is average garden fertilizer. But you just need to tell them what your growing and they will tell you what you need. Acid loving plants need acid fertilizer so ask.
