|Sunset Presbyterian Church v. Brockamp & Jaeger, Inc.
|Contract Law: In a construction contract specifying the issuance of a Certificate of Substantial Completion as a deadline for the accrual of claims, summary judgment is not appropriate if the date of completion is contested; while evidence of being used for its intended purpose is evidence of completion, that does not eliminate the need for a Certificate of Substantial Completion.

|Ballot Titles: Under ORS 250.035, a ballot title must include a caption, results statements, and summery which adequately describe the effects of voting one way or another, and reasonably identify the subject matter.

|Filling Date

|State v. Marker

|State v. Martinez
|Criminal Procedure: A request for legal counsel is evaluated under the totality of the circumstances and may be based on what a reasonable officer would have believed.

|Dept. of Human Services v. I.S.
|Juvenile Law: Under ORS 419B.100(1)(c), juvenile dependency jurisdiction is proper when "condition or circumstances are such as to endanger the welfare" of the child.

|State v. Smith
|Evidence: Under ORS 163.670(1), compelling or inducing a child to engage in sexually explicit conduct may be inferred by a factfinder from sexually explicit photographs in which a child's facial expression conveys that the child has been persuaded or influenced to participate.

|Talbott v. Teacher Standards & Practices Commission
|Administrative Law: A good faith answer to employment related questions that proves to be false is not knowingly misrepresenting facts under ORS 183.650(4).

|State v. Dickerson
|Criminal Law: Under ORS 164.354, the phrase "property of another" includes property in which another has any legal or equitable interest and is not limited to proprietary or possessor ownership.

|State v. Burns
|Civil Procedure: A trial decision that alters a defendant's criminal history determination, but does not alter the sentence received, is justiciable as a defendant's only avenue for challenging a criminal history determination.

|State v. Olive
|Criminal Law: Under ORS 162.315, it must be shown that an individual intended to resist arrest in order to satisfy the elements of the offense. Additionally, in order to form the required intent the person must know they are being arrested.

|State v. Whitmore
|Evidence: Expert testimony of a scientific nature is so inherently persuasive that not only must an expert's credentials be testified to a jury, but a foundation must be built showing their methodology is scientifically valid.
|Dept. of Human Services v. M.K.
|Juvenile Law: Under ORS 419B.476, "reasonable efforts" to allow a ward to be returned home must be determined by a totality of the circumstances analysis and not a single factor such as cost.
|State v. Brown
|Evidence: Diagnosis of a victim as sexually abused or "highly concerning for sexual abuse" requires physical evidence to support it in order to be admitted into evidence since such a diagnosis has more than a little likelihood to affect a jury's verdict.
|N.J.R. v. Kore
|Family Abuse Prevention Act: The Court of Appeals lacks jurisdiction to hear an appeal of a dismissal of a FAPA violation when no substantial right has been affected. An SPO may only be given if requested as a remedy in civil action, or when a person complains to a law enforcement officer and that officer gives a citation with specific notice, not sua sponte.
|Whalen v. American Medical Response Northwest, Inc.
|Civil Procedure: Under ORCP 47 E, expert testimony referred to in an affidavit may create a genuine dispute of fact, even when that information is very limited.

The governor says Wisconsin is a step ahead of its neighbors in job creation, but it still has work left to do.
Gov. Jim Doyle visited Janesville this morning, touting his plan to create better, higher paying jobs.
Students at Janesville's Blackhawk Technical college have a full plate of programs to choose.
Vice president of learning, Marvin Bausman says "everything from culinary arts to machine shop and lots in between."
But afterward students study employment opportunities more than anything else.
Bausman says, "we've been hit hard in some of the cutbacks in manufacturing areas."
Gov. Jim Doyle visited the area this morning to push his plan to create jobs.
Doyle told a small crowd at Lear Corporation, "as we move forward, we need our technical colleges to provide training our workers need for Wisconsin to compete at the high end."
The governor used the car seat assembly plant as a backdrop to propose two initiatives.
One, a $5 million grant program to bring new jobs to struggling communities. Another initiative has the state picking up the tab for worker training to entice business to come to Wisconsin or to stay put.
Doyle says, "but we don't just hand them a check. We invest in training of the workers so that they have the skills to earn good wage jobs."
One example of a company leaving the state is Alliant Techsystems. This Janesville plant makes fuses for bombs, but will consolidate with a plant in West Virginia, taking roughly 200 jobs with it.
Bausman says, "whether it's Lear, where we were this morning, or GM it's clear they have to move into new technologies and that's a difficulty. They need to train people and it's a difficulty for us because we need the funding to provide that training."
The governor's proposal comes after Dodgeville retailer Lands' End laid off about 400 employees, from executives to customer service representatives.
Doyle says, "it's just an example of in this changing world, we've always got to stay a step ahead of technology."
Before the superhighway drives employers somewhere else.
The governor's two proposals are part of a $10 million economic development program called for in his budget address earlier this year.

Morning Commutes Around The World
By Carrie Sloan
NAME: Mika Kondo Kunieda
PROFESSION: Consultant at The World Bank
LOCATION: Tokyo, Japan
"I ride in a special women-only metro car that runs between 7:20 and 9:20 a.m. The cars were created in 2005 due to frequent complaints that women were being groped and sexually harassed. I was a victim a few times when I was younger, and it was-and still is-a humiliating experience. I had to learn how to position myself against unwanted moves in even the most overcrowded train. Now, I've seen a few men get visibly anxious when they realize they've accidentally boarded a car during women-only time!"

The Iliad By Homer
Translated by Samuel Butler
THE fight between Trojans and Achaeans was now left to rage as it
would, and the tide of war surged hither and thither over the plain asthey aimed their bronze-shod spears at one another between the streamsof Simois and Xanthus.
First, Ajax son of Telamon, tower of strength to the Achaeans, brokea phalanx of the Trojans, and came to the assistance of his comradesby killing Acamas son of Eussorus, the best man among the Thracians,
being both brave and of great stature. The spear struck the projectingpeak of his helmet: its bronze point then went through his foreheadinto the brain, and darkness veiled his eyes.
Then Diomed killed Axylus son of Teuthranus, a rich man who lived inthe strong city of Arisbe, and was beloved by all men; for he had ahouse by the roadside, and entertained every one who passed; howbeit
not one of his guests stood before him to save his life, and Diomedkilled both him and his squire Calesius, who was then hischarioteer- so the pair passed beneath the earth.
Euryalus killed Dresus and Opheltius, and then went in pursuit ofAesepus and Pedasus, whom the naiad nymph Abarbarea had borne to nobleBucolion. Bucolion was eldest son to Laomedon, but he was a bastard.
While tending his sheep he had converse with the nymph, and sheconceived twin sons; these the son of Mecisteus now slew, and hestripped the armour from their shoulders. Polypoetes then killed
Astyalus, Ulysses Pidytes of Percote, and Teucer Aretaon. Ablerus fellby the spear of Nestor's son Antilochus, and Agamemnon, king of men,killed Elatus who dwelt in Pedasus by the banks of the river
Satnioeis. Leitus killed Phylacus as he was flying, and Eurypylus slewMelanthus. Then Menelaus of the loud war-cry took Adrestus alive, for his
horses ran into a tamarisk bush, as they were flying wildly over theplain, and broke the pole from the car; they went on towards thecity along with the others in full flight, but Adrestus rolled out,
and fell in the dust flat on his face by the wheel of his chariot;Menelaus came up to him spear in hand, but Adrestus caught him bythe knees begging for his life. "Take me alive," he cried, "son of
Atreus, and you shall have a full ransom for me: my father is rich andhas much treasure of gold, bronze, and wrought iron laid by in hishouse. From this store he will give you a large ransom should he
hear of my being alive and at the ships of the Achaeans." Thus did he plead, and Menelaus was for yielding and giving him to asquire to take to the ships of the Achaeans, but Agamemnon came
running up to him and rebuked him. "My good Menelaus," said he,"this is no time for giving quarter. Has, then, your house fared sowell at the hands of the Trojans? Let us not spare a single one of
them- not even the child unborn and in its mother's womb; let not aman of them be left alive, but let all in Ilius perish, unheeded andforgotten."
Thus did he speak, and his brother was persuaded by him, for hiswords were just. Menelaus, therefore, thrust Adrestus from him,whereon King Agamemnon struck him in the flank, and he fell: then
the son of Atreus planted his foot upon his breast to draw his spearfrom the body. Meanwhile Nestor shouted to the Argives, saying, "My friends, Danaan
warriors, servants of Mars, let no man lag that he may spoil the dead,and bring back much booty to the ships. Let us kill as many as we can;the bodies will lie upon the plain, and you can despoil them later
at your leisure." With these words he put heart and soul into them all. And now theTrojans would have been routed and driven back into Ilius, had not
Priam's son Helenus, wisest of augurs, said to Hector and Aeneas,"Hector and Aeneas, you two are the mainstays of the Trojans andLycians, for you are foremost at all times, alike in fight and
counsel; hold your ground here, and go about among the host to rallythem in front of the gates, or they will fling themselves into thearms of their wives, to the great joy of our foes. Then, when you have
put heart into all our companies, we will stand firm here and fightthe Danaans however hard they press us, for there is nothing else tobe done. Meanwhile do you, Hector, go to the city and tell our
mother what is happening. Tell her to bid the matrons gather at thetemple of Minerva in the acropolis; let her then take her key and openthe doors of the sacred building; there, upon the knees of Minerva,
let her lay the largest, fairest robe she has in her house- the oneshe sets most store by; let her, moreover, promise to sacrifice twelveyearling heifers that have never yet felt the goad, in the temple of
the goddess, if she will take pity on the town, with the wives andlittle ones of the Trojans, and keep the son of Tydeus from falling onthe goodly city of Ilius; for he fights with fury and fills men's
souls with panic. I hold him mightiest of them all; we did not feareven their great champion Achilles, son of a goddess though he be,as we do this man: his rage is beyond all bounds, and there is none
can vie with him in prowess" Hector did as his brother bade him. He sprang from his chariot,and went about everywhere among the host, brandishing his spears,
urging the men on to fight, and raising the dread cry of battle.Thereon they rallied and again faced the Achaeans, who gave ground andceased their murderous onset, for they deemed that some one of the
immortals had come down from starry heaven to help the Trojans, sostrangely had they rallied. And Hector shouted to the Trojans,"Trojans and allies, be men, my friends, and fight with might and
main, while I go to Ilius and tell the old men of our council andour wives to pray to the gods and vow hecatombs in their honour." With this he went his way, and the black rim of hide that went round
his shield beat against his neck and his ancles. Then Glaucus son of Hippolochus, and the son of Tydeus went into theopen space between the hosts to fight in single combat. When they were
close up to one another Diomed of the loud war-cry was the first tospeak. "Who, my good sir," said he, "who are you among men? I have
never seen you in battle until now, but you are daring beyond allothers if you abide my onset. Woe to those fathers whose sons facemy might. If, however, you are one of the immortals and have come down
from heaven, I will not fight you; for even valiant Lycurgus, son ofDryas, did not live long when he took to fighting with the gods. He itwas that drove the nursing women who were in charge of frenzied
Bacchus through the land of Nysa, and they flung their thyrsi on theground as murderous Lycurgus beat them with his oxgoad. Bacchushimself plunged terror-stricken into the sea, and Thetis took him to
her bosom to comfort him, for he was scared by the fury with which theman reviled him. Thereon the gods who live at ease were angry withLycurgus and the son of Saturn struck him blind, nor did he live
much longer after he had become hateful to the immortals. ThereforeI will not fight with the blessed gods; but if you are of them thateat the fruit of the ground, draw near and meet your doom."
And the son of Hippolochus answered, son of Tydeus, why ask me of mylineage? Men come and go as leaves year by year upon the trees.Those of autumn the wind sheds upon the ground, but when spring
returns the forest buds forth with fresh vines. Even so is it with thegenerations of mankind, the new spring up as the old are passing away.If, then, you would learn my descent, it is one that is well known
to many. There is a city in the heart of Argos, pasture land ofhorses, called Ephyra, where Sisyphus lived, who was the craftiestof all mankind. He was the son of Aeolus, and had a son named Glaucus,
who was father to Bellerophon, whom heaven endowed with the mostsurpassing comeliness and beauty. But Proetus devised his ruin, andbeing stronger than he, drove him from the land of the Argives, over
which Jove had made him ruler. For Antea, wife of Proetus, lustedafter him, and would have had him lie with her in secret; butBellerophon was an honourable man and would not, so she told lies
about him to Proteus. 'Proetus,' said she, 'kill Bellerophon or die,for he would have had converse with me against my will.' The kingwas angered, but shrank from killing Bellerophon, so he sent him to
Lycia with lying letters of introduction, written on a foldedtablet, and containing much ill against the bearer. He badeBellerophon show these letters to his father-in-law, to the end that
he might thus perish; Bellerophon therefore went to Lycia, and thegods convoyed him safely. "When he reached the river Xanthus, which is in Lycia, the king
received him with all goodwill, feasted him nine days, and killed nineheifers in his honour, but when rosy-fingered morning appeared uponthe tenth day, he questioned him and desired to see the letter from
his son-in-law Proetus. When he had received the wicked letter hefirst commanded Bellerophon to kill that savage monster, the Chimaera,who was not a human being, but a goddess, for she had the head of a
lion and the tail of a serpent, while her body was that of a goat, andshe breathed forth flames of fire; but Bellerophon slew her, for hewas guided by signs from heaven. He next fought the far-famed
Solymi, and this, he said, was the hardest of all his battles.Thirdly, he killed the Amazons, women who were the peers of men, andas he was returning thence the king devised yet another plan for his
destruction; he picked the bravest warriors in all Lycia, and placedthem in ambuscade, but not a man ever came back, for Bellerophonkilled every one of them. Then the king knew that he must be the
valiant offspring of a god, so he kept him in Lycia, gave him hisdaughter in marriage, and made him of equal honour in the kingdom withhimself; and the Lycians gave him a piece of land, the best in all the
country, fair with vineyards and tilled fields, to have and to hold. "The king's daughter bore Bellerophon three children, Isander,Hippolochus, and Laodameia. Jove, the lord of counsel, lay with
Laodameia, and she bore him noble Sarpedon; but when Bellerophoncame to be hated by all the gods, he wandered all desolate anddismayed upon the Alean plain, gnawing at his own heart, and
shunning the path of man. Mars, insatiate of battle, killed his sonIsander while he was fighting the Solymi; his daughter was killed byDiana of the golden reins, for she was angered with her; but
Hippolochus was father to myself, and when he sent me to Troy he urgedme again and again to fight ever among the foremost and outvie mypeers, so as not to shame the blood of my fathers who were the noblest
in Ephyra and in all Lycia. This, then, is the descent I claim." Thus did he speak, and the heart of Diomed was glad. He planted
his spear in the ground, and spoke to him with friendly words. "Then,"he said, you are an old friend of my father's house. Great Oeneus onceentertained Bellerophon for twenty days, and the two exchanged
presents. Oeneus gave a belt rich with purple, and Bellerophon adouble cup, which I left at home when I set out for Troy. I do notremember Tydeus, for he was taken from us while I was yet a child,
when the army of the Achaeans was cut to pieces before Thebes.Henceforth, however, I must be your host in middle Argos, and you minein Lycia, if I should ever go there; let us avoid one another's spears
even during a general engagement; there are many noble Trojans andallies whom I can kill, if I overtake them and heaven delivers theminto my hand; so again with yourself, there are many Achaeans whose
lives you may take if you can; we two, then, will exchange armour,that all present may know of the old ties that subsist between us." With these words they sprang from their chariots, grasped one
another's hands, and plighted friendship. But the son of Saturn madeGlaucus take leave of his wits, for he exchanged golden armour forbronze, the worth of a hundred head of cattle for the worth of nine.
Now when Hector reached the Scaean gates and the oak tree, the wivesand daughters of the Trojans came running towards him to ask aftertheir sons, brothers, kinsmen, and husbands: he told them to set about
praying to the gods, and many were made sorrowful as they heard him. Presently he reached the splendid palace of King Priam, adorned with
colonnades of hewn stone. In it there were fifty bedchambers- all ofhewn stone- built near one another, where the sons of Priam slept,each with his wedded wife. Opposite these, on the other side the
courtyard, there were twelve upper rooms also of hewn stone forPriam's daughters, built near one another, where his sons-in-law sleptwith their wives. When Hector got there, his fond mother came up to
him with Laodice the fairest of her daughters. She took his handwithin her own and said, "My son, why have you left the battle to comehither? Are the Achaeans, woe betide them, pressing you hard about the
city that you have thought fit to come and uplift your hands to Jovefrom the citadel? Wait till I can bring you wine that you may makeoffering to Jove and to the other immortals, and may then drink and be
refreshed. Wine gives a man fresh strength when he is wearied, asyou now are with fighting on behalf of your kinsmen." And Hector answered, "Honoured mother, bring no wine, lest you unman
me and I forget my strength. I dare not make a drink-offering toJove with unwashed hands; one who is bespattered with blood andfilth may not pray to the son of Saturn. Get the matrons together, and
go with offerings to the temple of Minerva driver of the spoil; there,upon the knees of Minerva, lay the largest and fairest robe you havein your house- the one you set most store by; promise, moreover, to
sacrifice twelve yearling heifers that have never yet felt the goad,in the temple of the goddess if she will take pity on the town, withthe wives and little ones of the Trojans, and keep the son of Tydeus
from off the goodly city of Ilius, for he fights with fury, andfills men's souls with panic. Go, then, to the temple of Minerva,while I seek Paris and exhort him, if he will hear my words. Would
that the earth might open her jaws and swallow him, for Jove bredhim to be the bane of the Trojans, and of Priam and Priam's sons.Could I but see him go down into the house of Hades, my heart would
forget its heaviness." His mother went into the house and called her waiting-women whogathered the matrons throughout the city. She then went down into
her fragrant store-room, where her embroidered robes were kept, thework of Sidonian women, whom Alexandrus had brought over from Sidonwhen he sailed the seas upon that voyage during which he carried off
Helen. Hecuba took out the largest robe, and the one that was mostbeautifully enriched with embroidery, as an offering to Minerva: itglittered like a star, and lay at the very bottom of the chest. With
this she went on her way and many matrons with her. When they reached the temple of Minerva, lovely Theano, daughterof Cisseus and wife of Antenor, opened the doors, for the Trojans
had made her priestess of Minerva. The women lifted up their handsto the goddess with a loud cry, and Theano took the robe to lay itupon the knees of Minerva, praying the while to the daughter of
great Jove. "Holy Minerva," she cried, "protectress of our city,mighty goddess, break the spear of Diomed and lay him low before theScaean gates. Do this, and we will sacrifice twelve heifers that
have never yet known the goad, in your temple, if you will have pityupon the town, with the wives and little ones If the Trojans." Thusshe prayed, but Pallas Minerva granted not her prayer.
While they were thus praying to the daughter of great Jove, Hectorwent to the fair house of Alexandrus, which he had built for him bythe foremost builders in the land. They had built him his house,
storehouse, and courtyard near those of Priam and Hector on theacropolis. Here Hector entered, with a spear eleven cubits long in hishand; the bronze point gleamed in front of him, and was fastened to
the shaft of the spear by a ring of gold. He found Alexandrus withinthe house, busied about his armour, his shield and cuirass, andhandling his curved bow; there, too, sat Argive Helen with her
women, setting them their several tasks; and as Hector saw him herebuked him with words of scorn. "Sir," said he, "you do ill tonurse this rancour; the people perish fighting round this our town;
you would yourself chide one whom you saw shirking his part in thecombat. Up then, or ere long the city will be in a blaze." And Alexandrus answered, "Hector, your rebuke is just; listen
therefore, and believe me when I tell you that I am not here so muchthrough rancour or ill-will towards the Trojans, as from a desire toindulge my grief. My wife was even now gently urging me to battle, and
I hold it better that I should go, for victory is ever fickle. Wait,then, while I put on my armour, or go first and I will follow. I shallbe sure to overtake you."
Hector made no answer, but Helen tried to soothe him. "Brother,"said she, "to my abhorred and sinful self, would that a whirlwind
had caught me up on the day my mother brought me forth, and hadborne me to some mountain or to the waves of the roaring sea thatshould have swept me away ere this mischief had come about. But, since
the gods have devised these evils, would, at any rate, that I had beenwife to a better man- to one who could smart under dishonour and men'sevil speeches. This fellow was never yet to be depended upon, nor
never will be, and he will surely reap what he has sown. Still,brother, come in and rest upon this seat, for it is you who bear thebrunt of that toil that has been caused by my hateful self and by
the sin of Alexandrus- both of whom Jove has doomed to be a theme ofsong among those that shall be born hereafter." And Hector answered, "Bid me not be seated, Helen, for all the
goodwill you bear me. I cannot stay. I am in haste to help theTrojans, who miss me greatly when I am not among them; but urge yourhusband, and of his own self also let him make haste to overtake me
before I am out of the city. I must go home to see my household, mywife and my little son, for I know not whether I shall ever againreturn to them, or whether the gods will cause me to fill by the hands
of the Achaeans." Then Hector left her, and forthwith was at his own house. He did notfind Andromache, for she was on the wall with her child and one of her
maids, weeping bitterly. Seeing, then, that she was not within, hestood on the threshold of the women's rooms and said, "Women, tell me,and tell me true, where did Andromache go when she left the house? Was
it to my sisters, or to my brothers' wives? or is she at the temple ofMinerva where the other women are propitiating the awful goddess?"
His good housekeeper answered, "Hector, since you bid me tell youtruly, she did not go to your sisters nor to your brothers' wives, nor
yet to the temple of Minerva, where the other women are propitiatingthe awful goddess, but she is on the high wall of Ilius, for she hadheard the Trojans were being hard pressed, and that the Achaeans
were in great force: she went to the wall in frenzied haste, and thenurse went with her carrying the child." Hector hurried from the house when she had done speaking, and went
down the streets by the same way that he had come. When he had gonethrough the city and had reached the Scaean gates through which hewould go out on to the plain, his wife came running towards him,
Andromache, daughter of great Eetion who ruled in Thebe under thewooded slopes of Mt. Placus, and was king of the Cilicians. Hisdaughter had married Hector, and now came to meet him with a nurse who
carried his little child in her bosom- a mere babe. Hector's darlingson, and lovely as a star. Hector had named him Scamandrius, but thepeople called him Astyanax, for his father stood alone as chief
guardian of Ilius. Hector smiled as he looked upon the boy, but he didnot speak, and Andromache stood by him weeping and taking his hand
in her own. "Dear husband," said she, "your valour will bring you todestruction; think on your infant son, and on my hapless self who
ere long shall be your widow- for the Achaeans will set upon you ina body and kill you. It would be better for me, should I lose you,to lie dead and buried, for I shall have nothing left to comfort me
when you are gone, save only sorrow. I have neither father normother now. Achilles slew my father when he sacked Thebe the goodlycity of the Cilicians. He slew him, but did not for very shame despoil
him; when he had burned him in his wondrous armour, he raised a barrowover his ashes and the mountain nymphs, daughters of aegis-bearingJove, planted a grove of elms about his tomb. I had seven brothers
in my father's house, but on the same day they all went within thehouse of Hades. Achilles killed them as they were with their sheep andcattle. My mother- her who had been queen of all the land under Mt.
Placus- he brought hither with the spoil, and freed her for a greatsum, but the archer- queen Diana took her in the house of your father.Nay- Hector- you who to me are father, mother, brother, and dear
husband- have mercy upon me; stay here upon this wall; make not yourchild fatherless, and your wife a widow; as for the host, place themnear the fig-tree, where the city can be best scaled, and the wall
is weakest. Thrice have the bravest of them come thither andassailed it, under the two Ajaxes, Idomeneus, the sons of Atreus,and the brave son of Tydeus, either of their own bidding, or because
some soothsayer had told them." And Hector answered, "Wife, I too have thought upon all this, butwith what face should I look upon the Trojans, men or women, if I
shirked battle like a coward? I cannot do so: I know nothing save tofight bravely in the forefront of the Trojan host and win renown alikefor my father and myself. Well do I know that the day will surely come
when mighty Ilius shall be destroyed with Priam and Priam's people,but I grieve for none of these- not even for Hecuba, nor King Priam,nor for my brothers many and brave who may fall in the dust before
their foes- for none of these do I grieve as for yourself when the dayshall come on which some one of the Achaeans shall rob you for ever ofyour freedom, and bear you weeping away. It may be that you will
have to ply the loom in Argos at the bidding of a mistress, or tofetch water from the springs Messeis or Hypereia, treated brutallyby some cruel task-master; then will one say who sees you weeping,
'She was wife to Hector, the bravest warrior among the Trojansduring the war before Ilius.' On this your tears will break forth anewfor him who would have put away the day of captivity from you. May I
lie dead under the barrow that is heaped over my body ere I hearyour cry as they carry you into bondage." He stretched his arms towards his child, but the boy cried and
nestled in his nurse's bosom, scared at the sight of his father'sarmour, and at the horse-hair plume that nodded fiercely from hishelmet. His father and mother laughed to see him, but Hector took
the helmet from his head and laid it all gleaming upon the ground.Then he took his darling child, kissed him, and dandled him in hisarms, praying over him the while to Jove and to all the gods.
"Jove," he cried, "grant that this my child may be even as myself,chief among the Trojans; let him be not less excellent in strength,
and let him rule Ilius with his might. Then may one say of him as hecomes from battle, 'The son is far better than the father.' May hebring back the blood-stained spoils of him whom he has laid low, and
let his mother's heart be glad.'" With this he laid the child again in the arms of his wife, whotook him to her own soft bosom, smiling through her tears. As her
husband watched her his heart yearned towards her and he caressedher fondly, saying, "My own wife, do not take these things toobitterly to heart. No one can hurry me down to Hades before my time,
but if a man's hour is come, be he brave or be he coward, there isno escape for him when he has once been born. Go, then, within thehouse, and busy yourself with your daily duties, your loom, your
distaff, and the ordering of your servants; for war is man's matter,and mine above all others of them that have been born in Ilius." He took his plumed helmet from the ground, and his wife went back
again to her house, weeping bitterly and often looking back towardshim. When she reached her home she found her maidens within, andbade them all join in her lament; so they mourned Hector in his own
house though he was yet alive, for they deemed that they shouldnever see him return safe from battle, and from the furious hands ofthe Achaeans.
Paris did not remain long in his house. He donned his goodlyarmour overlaid with bronze, and hasted through the city as fast ashis feet could take him. As a horse, stabled and fed, breaks loose and
gallops gloriously over the plain to the place where he is wont tobathe in the fair-flowing river- he holds his head high, and hismane streams upon his shoulders as he exults in his strength and flies
like the wind to the haunts and feeding ground of the mares- even sowent forth Paris from high Pergamus, gleaming like sunlight in hisarmour, and he laughed aloud as he sped swiftly on his way.
Forthwith he came upon his brother Hector, who was then turning awayfrom the place where he had held converse with his wife, and he was
himself the first to speak. "Sir," said he, "I fear that I have keptyou waiting when you are in haste, and have not come as quickly as youbade me."
"My good brother," answered Hector, you fight bravely, and no manwith any justice can make light of your doings in battle. But you
are careless and wilfully remiss. It grieves me to the heart to hearthe ill that the Trojans speak about you, for they have sufferedmuch on your account. Let us be going, and we will make things right
hereafter, should Jove vouchsafe us to set the cup of ourdeliverance before ever-living gods of heaven in our own homes, whenwe have chased the Achaeans from Troy."

Zelli Porcelain
By Payne & Son Jewellers and Zelli Porcelain | Friday, November 23, 2012, 15:18
Hanguang Chinese Porcelain
Traditional Dresden
relocated to Royal Tunbridge Wells in 2011, Zelli Porcelain can boast the
largest collection of fine German and European porcelain in the south east. Mr
Mike Starkie, proprietor, has been
collecting porcelain for many years and when it was time for Penelope Higham to retire, he gladly took hold of the
actually started life as a chocolate shop. Victor and Pearl Zelli had taken a
short lease in the Burlington Arcade when a chance request from a customer was to change
their lives. AT the time, hardly any fine porcelain was available in this
country. Most manufacturers were and still are based in Germany. One
day, a customer happened to ask Victor if he would help him to obtain a
Rosenthal porcelain sea lion. Victor obliged and the resulting £4.16.0 in the
till, rather than the customary 1/3d for humbugs or truffles, opened his eyes to
the potential of re-introducing European porcelain back into Britain. Over
the next 38 years, Zelli's stock grew into a unique showcase for the finest
continental manufacturers as well as sculptures by countless individual artists.
By 1990, Zelli moved to Dover
Street when Victor retired. Penelope Higham bought the business from him having
worked with him for 23 years, and later moved to Chiltern Street.
that glance into Zelli are blown away by what they discover. Forget the common
prejudice that porcelain personifies simpering shepherdesses and sentimental
knick knacks. Everything at Zelli is an exquisite work of art. Every piece is
handmade out of the purest porcelain. Many from over a hundred different moulds
that are fettled, glazed and fired several nail biting times. The diversity on
display is simply astounding. Yes, traditional Dresden shepherdess are on display, but so are more
contemporary pieces – stalking tigers, art nouveau ladies, white Meissen stags,
and state-of-the-art abstract sculptures. Zelli is the only gallery in the world
to display to display work from all six of porcelain manufacturers.

Seoul Searching
July 22, 1987
Seoul There's no question that something wonderful happened here on June 29. South Korea's authoritarian government had been expected to concoct the narrowest set of concessions necessary to placate its opposition, stop the rioting, and avoid martial law.
Promises, Promises
March 09, 1987
The Palace File by Nguyen Tien Hung and Jerrold L. Schecter (Harper & Row, 542 pp., $22.95) The literature on Vietnam, so scant in the 1960s, when it was most needed, is now swelling toward flood tide. Much of what is being produced is either redundant or merely memoiristic; but one can now add The Palace File to the relatively short list of important books on this grim and complicated subject.
Pop Goes Elie Wiesel
November 10, 1986
"I was of course very stunned and grateful, and melancholy," Elie Wiesel told the The New York Times about his initial reaction to winning the 1986 Nobel Peace Prize. "I fell back into the mood of Yom Kippur, serious reflection about my parents and grandparents. It me half an hour to get out of it." But when Wiesel finally came to, he told a press conference in New York, "There are no coincidences. If it [winning the prize] happens after Yom Kippur here, then some of my friends and myself have prayed well." Actually, they did a little more than pray.
The Response to Terror
May 05, 1986
In the Middle East, as in much of the world, if a ruler can ward off the assassin's hand, he need not govern effectively or justly to remain in power. But the career of Colonel Muammar al-Qaddafi demonstrates that the key to power in a place like Libya is not just brute force. It is the ability to mesmerize the mob. The mob is fickle, easily roused and easily disenchanted. With minimum expectations of what life might otherwise offer in a rationally organized economy and free polity, it feeds on slogans and fantasies.
Drawing The Line
April 21, 1986
Reagan's bombing of Libya was effective precisely because it combined a show of superior force with prudent restraint.

The next battlefield over the so-called Regan Doctrine is the decade-old consensus that America should stay out of the civil war in Angola. Based on the belief that the United States should assist anti-Communist freedom fighters everywhere, elements within the Reagan administration and in Congress are urging that the U.S. supply as much as $200 million in aid to Jonas Savimbi's anti-Marxist guerrilla group, the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (UNITA).
October 21, 1985
We can't prevent earthquakes. But technology and techniques now exist to save lives after such tragedies, and that is why it has been so disturbing to witness trained rescue workers arriving in Mexico City too late to help many trapped in collapsed buildings. Members of a French team complained bitterly that they could have saved dozens, if not hundreds, of additional lives if they had been called to the scene promptly after the disaster struck.

Windows 7 Home Ultimate 64
2 Computers Exact Hardware - Can windows be authorized on both?
I am building two identical htpc machines. Same motherboard, same processor, same ram. Maybe even same hard drives.
Could I get a single copy of Windows 7 to authenticate on both machines? I bought a family pack so I have an extra license, just hate to waste to licenses on seldom used htpcs. What I would prefer to do is just close the drive in stick it in the new computer so I don't have to reinstall and config all the htpc software (time consuming to say the least).
|My System Specs
|21 Nov 2010
Windows Xp with Windows 7 theme = Win
If you have a family pack then yes you could install it on both PCS. One single couple of windows 7 will do install windows 7 on one PC.
You'll need to purchase the family pack if you haven't already.

W 7 64-bit Ultimate
Hello shaxs.
Something like Paragon could be used to create a clone that could be installed to the second PC but it will have to have its own activation key added after you have it running.
Just don't add a key for the install to the first PC, then after you make the image for the second PC add a separate key to both PCs after you have them as you want them.
Even though the HW may be "the same" they have unique ID numbers that differentiate them from others that can be detected by MS servers.

Yep, even though the two computers may be identical, the WPA mechanism will see it as different. How? Read on.
Here is a clip from an article on Windows XP product activation but still will throw some light on the basics of it in general.
"The WPA system checks ten categories of hardware:
So there you are.
|My System Specs
|21 Nov 2010
Windows 7 x64 pro/ Windows 7 x86 Pro/ XP SP3 x86
Irrespective of the results, ONE license is required PER computer. You cannot legally install a single license copy of Windows on multiple computers.
|My System Specs
|21 Nov 2010
Ya, that's the legal aspect imposed by EULA. The practical aspect is that even if you try to, thinking that both are identical, you will not succeed. This is the technical aspect of it.
|My System Specs
|21 Nov 2010
You can install Windows 7 to one HD, set it up as you want without activating, then save a Windows 7 backup image externally: Backup Complete Computer - Create an Image Backup
Next boot the Windows 7 DVD Repair console on the second computer, select Recover Using An Image to apply the stored image to it: System Image Recovery
If the Windows 7 backup imaging fails then use the excellent Acronis free cloning programs available if you have a Seagate or WD HD on either end. Paragon 10 Backup Imaging and Macrium Reflect are other good free programs for imaging.
|My System Specs
|21 Nov 2010
The question raised by the thread starter is whether he can activate two identical machines with the same one key he has got.
The answer is, it is legally not permissible as pointed by Bill2.
Even if he tries, activation on the second identical machine will fail, since the parameters taken for activation like serial numbers, MAC address etc., will be different inspite of the two machines being identical.
|My System Specs
|21 Nov 2010
Agree the issue about same Key to activate both installations on identical hardware is settled. That was easy: There is no exception to one installation per license.
I wanted to leave him some options to actually work with, since he has two keys.
We try to help users here even when they don't get the answer they want.
|My System Specs
|21 Nov 2010
My fault. I missed out the family pack mention. A short memory fault.( I was seriously focussed on some WMP 12 corrupt library issue and was peeping in here now and then.) You are right as far as a repeat install on the other identical machine is concerned.
He will have 30 days time to groom one machine fully and then clone it to the other and then activate the two machines with two different keys. Amen.

NASHVILLE — As a Tennessee General Assembly committee prepares to review a Chicago-based company's dealings with state government, an administration plan to raze a state office building is being questioned.
State Rep. Brenda Gilmore, D-Nashville, told The Tennessean the Cordell Hull Building next to the state Capitol is an impressive structure.
"The building is just beautiful," she said. "It shouldn't be torn down just because one consultant says it should be."
The Fiscal Review Committee, which Gilmore leads, will review how Jones Lang LaSalle parlayed an initial $1 million contract into a multimillion-dollar deal to lease space for state offices.
"I don't think we should jump to conclusions and say that improprieties were done," Gilmore said. "But it's a big deal when you go from $1 million to $38 million."
Jones Lang LaSalle also would be in line for a 4 percent commission every time the state rents space.
Haslam ties?
Gov. Bill Haslam once listed the commercial real estate firm as one of his major investments. Haslam said he sold it before he took office in 2011.
The state is reassessing 5 million square feet of office space. Thousands of state workers have been asked to move, and many others are expected to be asked in the near future. Jones Land LaSalle says the shuffle will save Tennessee government more than $100 million in the next 10 years.
The nine-story Cordell Hull Building hearkens to a time when government was seen as a pillar of stability, said Tim Walker, executive director of the Metro Historical Commission.
"We don't build them that way anymore, "Walker said. "It speaks to the permanence of government, so it's clad in limestone, but if you take a look at a building like the [nearby] Sevier Building, it's more modest."
Building owner sues
There are also doubts about a decision to move 725 workers out of the L&C Tower in downtown Nashville. The owner of that building has sued for $4.15 million in lost rent and up to $2 million in additional damages.
For his part, Haslam said he stands by the state's real estate decisions and the firm's recommendations.
"The reality is when you change something big in state government — anything — it brings up questions and issues to folks," Haslam said last week. "This is a sea change in what we're doing, but it's also important to note we're going to save a lot of money."

Manchester United start the defence of the Manchester Senior Cup tonight (Thursday) with a home clash against Bury.
Warren Joyce's squad lifted the trophy at the Etihad Stadium in May at the end of a successful season and will aim to get off to a winning start against the Shakers at Moss Lane, Altrincham. The Reds' strong line-up includes the likes of Joshua King, Federico Macheda, Scott Wootton and Robbie Brady.
"The Manchester Senior Cup has been a good tournament for us in the last few years," Joyce told ManUtd.com. "There are always good games as the lower-league clubs certainly use the competition as an outing for the first-team squad players. So they are always tough matches and we expect nothing less on Thursday night."
Christian Dibble, son of former Manchester City keeper Andy, has been named in goal for Ben Futcher's side.
United: Johnstone; Vermijl, Wootton, M.Keane, Blackett; Brady, Tunnicliffe, Petrucci, Lingard; King, Macheda. Subs: Gollini, Veseli, Fornasier, Ekangamene.
The match is live on MUTV with kick off at 19:00 BST.

Prior GAO testimonies have described cases of physical abuse of children at youth residential treatment programs and public and private schools. However, children are also vulnerable to sexual abuse. A 2004 Department of Education report estimated that millions of students are subjected to sexual misconduct by a school employee at some time between kindergarten and the twelfth grade (K-12). GAO was asked to (1) examine the circumstances surrounding cases where K-12 schools hired or retained individuals with histories of sexual misconduct and determine the factors contributing to such employment actions and (2) provide an overview of selected federal and state laws related to the employment of convicted sex offenders in K-12 schools. To identify case studies, GAO compared 2007 to 2009 data employment databases from 19 states and the District of Columbia to data in the National Sex Offender Registry. GAO also searched public records from 2000 to 2010 to identify cases in which sexual misconduct by school employees ultimately resulted in a criminal conviction. GAO ultimately selected 15 cases from 11 states for further investigation. For each case, to the extent possible, GAO reviewed court documents and personnel files and also interviewed relevant school officials and law enforcement. GAO reviewed applicable federal and state laws related to the employment of sex offenders and requirements for conducting criminal history checks.
The 15 cases GAO examined show that individuals with histories of sexual misconduct were hired or retained by public and private schools as teachers, support staff, volunteers, and contractors. At least 11 of these 15 cases involve offenders who previously targeted children. Even more disturbing, in at least 6 cases, offenders used their new positions as school employees or volunteers to abuse more children. GAO found that the following factors contributed to hiring or retention: (1) school officials allowed teachers who had engaged in sexual misconduct toward students to resign rather than face disciplinary action, often providing subsequent employers with positive references; (2) schools did not perform preemployment criminal history checks; (3) even if schools did perform these checks, they may have been inadequate in that they were not national, fingerprint-based, or recurring; and (4) schools failed to inquire into troubling information regarding criminal histories on employment applications. GAO found no federal laws regulating the employment of sex offenders in public or private schools and widely divergent laws at the state level. For example, some states require a national, fingerprint-based criminal history check for school employment, while others do not. State laws also vary as to whether past convictions must result in termination from school employment, revocation of a teaching license, or refusal to hire.

Marion Cotillard stars in latest Dior film
We showed you Marion Cotillard's latest campaign for Christian Dior shot in L.A. by Steven Klein, but now the latest Lady Dior film has come out - L.A.dy Dior. The film centers around an actress who can't take all the drama of the business anymore and flips out on a photo set. It's a bit of a different role for Cotillard and it's interesting to see her as such a character. It's also interesting that they didn't seem to use the same character for the print campaign, which is decidedly more sophisticated. The short film is directed by John Cameron Mitchell.
The Lady Dior handbag in multicolored crocodile and other textiles features heavily in both projects. We can't imagine how many of these bags Marion must have in her closet! Again, I like the bag from the print campaign much better than the one prominently displayed in the video.

About one quarter of the way through Joe Hertler and the Rainbow Seekers' set, my friend turned to me and remarked, "Imagine having this as your teacher." She didn't mean it derisively, but it made me laugh anyway. We had both just seen firsthand the stark difference between Joe Hertler as a teacher and Joe Hertler as the charismatic, energetic frontman of a soulful roots-rock band. One dressed in a gingham button-up and spoke with soft measured statements; the other danced wildly onstage, adorned in floral shirt and hat, and said things like "music is about human f*cking beings!" to a teeming crowd of young adults. The first one is the Joe Hertler I interviewed. He had parent-teacher conferences for part of the night. Then he came back to The Loft, cut loose – and gave what I believed to be the best performance of his career.
So you've mentioned in other interviews and on your Twitter account that you're a fan of electronic music. To what extent, if any, does that influence your music?
I'm not, well – it makes me always sort of convince my band to play dance music, but they generally reject those offers. So the dancier songs we have, it means I'm really happy during those ones. But, you know, sometimes I feel like it doesn't influence it. If I had full control over all the music, there would probably be longer songs with more instrumental sections.
Right, a little more 'jam band.'
For the floor-type beats. But yeah, I have a band to keep me from doing that stuff. (laughs)
What made you decide to transition from just doing acoustic stuff, like how you did before "On Being," to then adding an actual band?
You know, it just sort of fell into place. I met and started hanging out with a lot of this Lansing crew; we actually met while making hip hop beats, these analog beats. We met surrounding then, honestly, in a small local Lansing label that had formed a couple years ago. I was invited to kind of be a part of this collective, and that's where I met my band. I had always wanted a band. I liked doing the solo thing, but you know, music's better – an adventure's way better – when you have some people to hang with and share with. I was very much seeking out a band without actually seeking it out, so I was really lucky. It was a stroke of luck, and I got some musicians that are much better than me. It helps.
What's the dynamic like in the band? What kind of roles do different people take on?
Well, Kevin's the master, Kevin's the band leader and generally keeps things organized. But we also have Irving and Evan, our managers, so they also have a role in that. But really everyone musically has their own place. We don't tread on each other so much; I mean, we'll certainly call each other out if something sounds bad or shitty, but like, in this band, everyone sort of has their say. And I think everyone's at a point now where we know how to craft what we play to the songs. Everyone's focused – it's a very song-focused band. Despite having people who can freakin' shred, everyone just respects the structure, respects the song, and we trust each other a lot. I write a song, I don't tell them what to do. I trust them, they trust me.
How's it been touring outside of Michigan? What are the shows like compared to the shows here?
It's always humbling. In your home state, you have your home crowd, your friends come out, and you get to play for packed audiences. Those are great. But you know, going on the road – it's a humbling experience. You're going to places where no one knows who you are. Occasionally you'll play to a – I don't want to say an empty room, but it's a room where there's not a lot of people there. You'll have like ten people there. But then you have the shows where still no one knows you but there are people, and everyone likes you and that's awesome. In general, it's just a humbling experience. It's quick stops in big places.
Now what about opening for Phoenix? I believe that happened just this year. What was that like, being around a foreign band that's also very popular here?
Oh, that was great. Obviously it's a huge honor to get to play with Phoenix. I'm a huge fan of them. The promoters were very accommodating, you're treated well, you get food and whatnot – I don't know, they treat you like a rock star! [laughs] Not that that's exactly a good thing, but it was just one of those surreal experiences. It's not like we're one of those super huge bands or anything, but we got a taste for that a little bit. Like "wow, this is how it works!" And you get to meet a lot of really, really professional people. You feel like everyone at that level is at the top of their game. There aren't mistakes that happen. You don't have the technical glitches that seem to come up. And the Phoenix guys were super cool. They seemed really interested in our music, just all around nice guys, very engaging to talk to.
Can you tell us anything about your next album?
We finished it about a month ago. It's entirely done. We don't have any physical CDs yet, but, you know. Pretty much the next step is to look at this as a career. We have a record, it's completed. It's kind of the full package at this moment, with the radio singles and the rest of the meat that sort of falls around those. And we're just crossing our fingers. We're shopping at the moment, and things are looking very, very good. So tonight and a few other shows will definitely determine whether or not we'll be able to do this professionally.
Lyrically and sonically, and just all around, where do you see the band going in the next few years?
You mean sonically as in our sound?
Your sound, right.
I get bored really quick, so I tend to jump around a lot. I think all three of our records are, including this one, different from each other in a lot of different ways. You know, honestly, I have no idea where my life could lead, where my tastes will lead… it's so random. I can say that I'm always pushing to make things a little bit dancier, but at the same time I'm always pushing to make things as honest as they can be, too. I certainly don't want to sacrifice the integrity of our music.
I think you strike a good balance with that. Like with "Feel," definitely.
That was a great song, you know, especially at Bledfest, where there are obviously so many bands that are emo or punk, and then getting out and hearing you guys doing a dance song like that – it was really fun.
Yeah, I want to keep it fun. I think my music is a reflection of myself – and not just myself, but the culture that surrounds me. Wherever that culture leads and the way it conditions my own experiences… that's what's gonna influence the music. If I get really sad, I'll probably write a sad record. But I certainly like to keep things with at least a jovial outer layer. I try to keep it happy without sacrificing the overall integrity of the album.
You were studying education at Central Michigan, right? What have you been doing with that, or are you just too busy with the band?
No, I actually work full time. Evan was yelling at me earlier because I have to go to parent-teacher conferences tonight. I'm not a teacher right now – well, I sort of am – I'm in teaching administration. I organize educational programs in inner city schools. So I'm still involved in education. I love teaching; it's something I'm very passionate about. This isn't quite teaching, but ultimately I want to play rock'n'roll for a little while and then I want to be a teacher.
Settle down, maybe incorporate some lessons into song form for the kids…
I promised a bunch of middle schoolers today that if they had perfect attendance, they would get a song. So it's a stretch – they've got a lot of work to do.

They do DocBook processing and XInclude allows to split the document like external parsed entities. But the XInclude chunks can be DTD validated directly contrary to entities. Seems a significant improvement for them. They also validate the result of the XInclude processing (since DocBook DTD doesn't have xi:include nodes).

text: We don't normally dig hippies that much, but these guys are great – and this album may be one of the sweetest we've heard from the Bay Area scene of the early 70s! Joy Of Cooking have a wonderful style that puts plenty of jazz in the vocals of lead singers Toni Brown and Terry Garthwaite – a sweetly gliding approach to the music that pulls the folksy instrumentation of the rest of the combo into hipper territory, and which almost points towards some of the best breezy vocal work to come out of the SF scene later in the 70s. Instrumentation includes keyboards, guitar, alto sax, trombone, and lots of great percussion that punctuates the tunes with an earthy groove, and really emphasizes the rhythmic quality of the work. Titles include "Pilot", "Closer To The Ground", "Blues For A Friend", "New Colorado Blues", "A Thousand Miles", "Sometimes Like a River", and "The War You Left".

Wondering where to park the family for a day of war machines and thunderous explosions? If you don't already have your game-plan for this Saturday, April 16, try Boomtown at Tumbleweed Southwest Grill to fulfill all your Thunder Over Louisville desires. This new venue at Thunder offers a multitude of family-friendly amenities including outside activities and play areas, food, a beer and margarita garden, port-o-lets, the Thunder sound system, and best of all, FREE admission.
Located at 1201 River Road, this venue should offer a spectacular view of the air shows. From 11 a.m. - 11 p.m. Boomtown could be the ideal family fort--that is if you're willing to hold it down in the cold and rainy forecast they're calling for this Saturday.
For more information about this event, call (502) 618-8323 or email Tumbleweed.
On the South Great Lawn, there will also be a play area for children. The interactive attractions including a Merry-go-Round, Rock Wall, Super Slide, Ala-Baba Magic Carpet, Moon Bounce, and Obstacle Course might just distract the kids from the long, cold wait before the fireworks.
The Chow Wagon and other attractions require a Pegasus Pin for admittance, so come prepared with your pins (and ponchos, chairs, layers, water, etc…).
The air show is scheduled to begin at 3:00 p.m. while the fireworks won't light up the Second Street Bridge until 9:30. Good luck, parents, if you choose to journey to the Waterfront for Thunder. Be sure to dress warm, take plenty of snacks, blankets, and wet-wipes, and give yourself plenty of time for the trek home--like love, the commute is usually easy going in, but nearly-impossible when you decide to leave. Consider enjoying the air show or the fireworks, but realize both might over-stimulate and push the limits for both child and parent, not to mention every innocent bystander in your path. May the grace of The Derby Goddesses be with you, families.

They dont make em like Ray Price anymore. Mostly because the raw materials are just all mined outits a grit-poor, gut-poor, honk-poor tonk-poor world, and you cant even get heartaches by the number anymore. (Instead, its heartaches by the kilobit-per-second.) Price came from the old hard times and howled hardwood-floor country classics like Crazy Arms, Heartaches by the Number, City Lights and more, and if you miss the way a 45 would add its own personal glow to a jukebox when a certain pedal-steel riff came on, well, Ray might just, too. Fans of Harlans, Haggards or any two or three of the principal Hanks will want to make sure theyre dressed to reminisce, and Price will play Buck Owens Crystal Palace the night after his OC stand if youd like to stand right in the light.

The Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry (MAF) has suspended operations at the Dogs Delight pet food factory in Christchurch following the death of a Sumatran Tiger at Wellington Zoo, apparently as a result of the tiger eating pet food contaminated with the euthanasia drug pentabarbitone.
MAF has detained product currently held at the factory, and instructed Dogs Delight Ltd to have those, to whom it supplied product in the past four weeks, withdraw that product from retail sale.
MAF is also advising the public that pet food labelled "PF 145" should not be fed to animals until further notice.
Pet food supplied for retail sale in New Zealand is required to be labelled "PF", followed by the factory number. The number of the Dogs Delight factory is 145.
MAF Food Assurance Authority Director Animal Products, Tony Zohrab said: "It was a single whole animal consumed at the Wellington Zoo. And at this time, I would say that the most likely outcome of our investigations is that we will find there is no other effected product. We cannot, however, be sure that other animals were not contaminated. And until we are we will be erring on the side of caution."
MAF investigations will continue into the week. MAF will report to the public, through the news media, as further information becomes available.
For more information contact:
Tony Zohrab, Director Animal Products, MAF Food Assurance Authority or
