University settled twice with assaulted researcher
The University of Iowa promised years of employment and benefits to a post-doctoral student who claimed she was physically and sexually assaulted by her supervising professor.
Settlement agreements released Thursday show the woman told university officials in 2008 that she'd been assaulted by assistant pathology professor Toshiki Itoh.
A jury in 2010 found Itoh guilty of assault causing bodily injury, but deadlocked on whether he was guilty of third-degree sexual abuse. He later entered an Alford Plea to that charge.
Itoh's case is well-known because he collected $200,000 while on paid leave, which outraged state lawmakers. But the university's settlements with his former assistant hadn't been known.
In a 2011 agreement, the university guaranteed her employment and benefits through 2015. A subsequent agreement last year paid her $42,000 to resign.

One million UK jobs depend on physics, report reveals
A new report from the Institute of Physics (IOP) shows that 4% of employees in the UK work in companies that would not exist without the physics base, or without employees that have an advanced understanding of physics.
Dr Frances Saunders, incoming President of IOP, said, "It's too easy to overlook the contribution that physics makes to the economy. From the number of jobs it creates to the value it adds, this report shows how much physics has to offer to our economic recovery."
Physics-based businesses employ more than one million people in the UK, creating a greater number of jobs than both the finance, banking and insurance sector and the construction sector.
Additionally, the value that employees in physics-based businesses add to the UK economy is almost double that of the average UK employee; in 2010, the Gross Value Added (GVA) by the average employee was £36,000, while the average employee in a physics-based business contributed approximately £70,000.
Looking at physics-based businesses' contribution to the national economy from 2005-2010, while employing 4% of the country's workers, these businesses provided, on average, 8.5% of our national GVA (analogous to Gross Domestic Product, or GDP) each year.
The report, produced in collaboration with Deloitte, assesses physics-based businesses' contribution over the years 2005 to 2010 (the most recent years from which data is available) and, as such, can be used to assess the effect of 2008's financial crash on physics-based businesses.
The total number of registered businesses in the physics-based sector has risen since 2005 by more than 30%, showing that physics has an important role in emerging sectors of the economy to help drive economic recovery,
Dr Saunders adds, "Physics-based businesses have the potential to pull us out of recession but they need focused support through more ready access to capital and innovative public procurement."
Oxford Instruments, a FTSE250 company with an annual turnover of £337 million, is a leading provider of high-technology tools and systems to academic, research and industrial markets.
The company's Chief Executive, Jonathan Flint, says that "100% of our revenue is dependent on the physics discipline.
"Physics can play an integral part in recreating an economy that we can all be proud of."
What is a 'physics-based' business?
A challenge in the production of the report was identifying which business sectors can be classified as 'physics-based'; technology gifted by physics underpins a wide range of businesses – from Tesco's checkout to Curry's flat screen televisions, lasers and LEDs wouldn't exist without physics.
Tesco's and Curry's, however, would not have been included in the analysis as IOP and Deloitte agreed that 'physics-based' businesses would only refer to those businesses that would be unable to exist without ability to respond and adapt to latest advances in research.

Friends, as many of you know, western Guatemala suffered a 7.4-magnitude earthquake last week (see our CFCA news report) that affected at least 80 of our sponsored friends and their families.
One sponsored child died during the quake, and our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family. (We're still trying to reach his sponsor, so weíre not able to publish his name yet.)
Others suffered partial or complete loss of their homes and belongings, especially as many of their houses were humbly built with adobe or mud rather than reinforced with concrete and steel.
These homes were less able to withstand the earthquake's force and made the impact far more devastating. Many of these houses are destroyed or so unstable that remaining in them would be dangerous.
As our staffers in one community reported, a family was heartbroken because their house, which represented many years of work, was damaged in the quake. As a stopgap measure, they are cooking in the yard and sleeping in a small room that has cracks in two corners.
Our staff on the ground will continue to work closely with sponsored friends and their families to assess and monitor their needs. We'll be using funds contributed to our disaster assistance fund to pay for repairing and rebuilding homes, replacing possessions lost in the quake, and any other support these families may need.
Please consider making a donation to our disaster assistance fund to help families affected by the quake. This will greatly help us in providing the assistance they need.
One hundred percent of donations to the fund are sent to our projects to be used where they're most needed, as determined by CFCA and local project staffs in conversation with sponsored friends and their families.
Thanks so much, and we deeply appreciate your concern and support.

With us is Todd Cooper, vice president of Wolters Kluwer Financial Services' Financial Intelligence Unit.
DDJ: Todd, if we're to believe everything we see on TV and in movies, online money-laundering is a big deal. Is that the case?
TC: Money laundering is a critical phase of much criminal and terrorist activity and is intractable global problem. According to the FBI, 2-5 percent of the global BDP is attributable to money laundering, so yes, it is a very big deal.
DDJ: So what are we to do? Who are the "good guys" and how do they combat the "bad guys"?
TC: Financial services institutions have been deputized to proactively prevent known criminals and terrorists from using their services by monitoring the behavior of their customers and reporting to the appropriate authorities suspicious activity and specific financial transactions that present higher risk profiles. In the U.S., the FBI and other federal, state and local agencies use this data to support their on-going criminal and terrorist investigations as well as initiate new investigations based on patterns of data.
DDJ: It would seem that the "good guys" need to be experts in technology and expert in financial issues. How do you train someone to be an anti-money laundering (AML) investigator?
TC: To adequately attack this problem, financial service institutions need to use transaction monitoring and customer risk management technologies to effectively and efficiently meet their obligations. AML investigators must be financial forensic experts, able to recognize the transaction patterns of various money laundering, fraud and terrorist financing schemes. It is not a skill that is easily acquired, and there is a nationwide and even worldwide shortage of expert investigators. There are many strategies for training these individuals, but we believe simulating a true forensic financial scenario results in the quickest and most effective path to helping investigators to become experts.
DDJ: As money laundering techniques change, it would see the training game would change too. Is this the case?
TC: Wiz Sentri: Virtuoso, our AML training simulator, is updated on a quarterly basis with new money laundering scenarios. As new schemes are found in the market, the system is updated to provide new and even expert investigators the simulations they need to uncover these new schemes within their own organizations' financial transaction information.
DDJ: Where would readers go to learn more about this AML?
TC: There are many resources on the web, so a Google search is a good place to go for general information on money laundering. The FBI and other government sites have fascinating details on the war against money laundering and are good resources for those who would like to dig in deeper. Readers can also check out the Wiz Sentri: Virtuoso AML training simulator and Wolters Kluwer Financial Services' Financial Intelligence Unit.

Vision sensing technology in track-and-trace applications
Sensors work with control systems to follow perishable and critical products through manufacturing and distribution.
Vision sensors are a critical component to an industrial manufacturing process, helping to optimize productivity and improve product quality by detecting faulty parts before they leave the production line. Vision sensors see, analyze, and interpret data in complex visual inspections, including parts verification, gauging, measuring, orientation, flaw detection, and sorting. Vision sensing is especially significant in food manufacturing processes, providing track, trace, and inspection functions to follow a product from initial development to the final packaged result.
Vision sensing (or electronic imaging) provides control to manufacturers over multiple processes from machine tools and robots to product quality and inspection. Starting with a camera, which determines the range of the product features and performance, and a control system that is used to interface the sensors with machine controls, vision sensors allow users to set product-specific parameters for inspection. The inspection process consists of a three-step process: The camera acquires an image of the part; next a processor analyzes the image; and finally, it determines if the inspection passes or fails, reporting the results to the manufacturing line.
Vision sensors are a superior manufacturing detection tool due to their unparalleled abilities to handle high-speed assembly lines, allowing the sensor to inspect products with 100% accuracy. This is in comparison to human inspection capabilities, which at best are approximately 80% accurate. Additionally, vision sensors are able to conduct simultaneous, repetitive, multiple, and consistent inspections on objects (same or differing), providing reliable results for complex detection needs. With their user-friendly, easy-to-install application, enhanced functionality, plus reliable communication to operation devices, today's vision sensors offer a nearly universal vision solution, delivering cost-effective, powerful, and controlled vision capabilities for manufacturers.
Beyond presence detection
Vision sensors are inspection tools using and interpreting light (or the absence of it) to control machines and processes for product detection. Unlike traditional photoelectric sensors' simplistic operation of presence detection, vision sensors can also analyze the color, shape, size, or position of an object's feature. Vision sensors do not rely on the object to trigger inspection, but instead use dedicated light to illuminate and capture the entire image for complete visual feedback. A single vision sensor can inspect multiple points on an object, reducing equipment requirements while gaining expanded range. The vision sensor "sees" an area, and senses many thousands of distinct points (or pixels) in the specified area. Further, users can change the lens of the sensor, making the field of view smaller or larger, to obtain accurate detail, even at a microscopic level if needed. Upon image capture, the vision sensor provides a binary output with enhanced communication capabilities, allowing users to send large amounts of data about an object's parts or features serially or via computer protocols such as Ethernet. This enables data to be communicated to the entire manufacturing enterprise.
For example, in food manufacturing processes, a vision sensor can verify the correct label on the food product's packaging by reading the 2D Datamatrix barcode or matching the pattern on the label. This not only prevents incorrect cartons or packaging from being added to a product, but also effectively tracks and traces the product throughout the entire manufacturing process. In addition, a vision sensor can verify that the date and lot code are printed legibly, ensuring the correct range of products are easily identified if a recall occurs.
Enhancing communication
Most vision sensors have multiple communication methods to interface with the control system, ranging from simple discrete I/O to serial communication to Ethernet. Discrete I/O is used for parts of the system that require higher speeds or simple controls, such as trigger or pass-and-fail outputs. Serial and Ethernet communications are used for data transfer and system information, including pattern names, pass/fail counts, and program selection. When high-speed communication is necessary, such as when exporting images, Ethernet is the primary method.
Ethernet connectivity provides ease of configuration and networking capabilities in manufacturing processes. With the advent of standard industrial protocols over Ethernet, vision sensors have the ability to exchange input and output data directly to PLCS, HMIs, or alternative factory devices with minimal programming of commands, allowing operators to retrieve data quickly and easily. For example, users can access valuable inspection data such as inspection time, pass/fail status, system error, trigger (or mis-trigger), ready signal, and additional inspection data directly from the factory device. Additionally, data used for authentication can be remotely accessed and updated, including up-to-the-minute pattern variations providing unparalleled control over production. In barcode applications, Ethernet communication also permits the reference barcode value to be uploaded automatically into the sensor.
Improving inspection
Recent advancements have improved the ease of use of vision sensors. Advances in touchscreen capabilities and inspection algorithms have allowed sophisticated sensors to break free from the PC, eliminating the need for cables. For example, some vision sensors feature inspection tools like match, blemish, sort, and barcode readings that are powerful, yet simple to configure. Installation and configuration is easier using menu-driven tools that guide users through selecting specific inspection designations for each product. This allows a plant technician to configure an inspection step to sort between multiple products without the need to bring a laptop to the manufacturing line. With some advanced vision sensors capable of storing up to 100 inspections at a time, working with high-speed assembly lines and rapid product changeover is simple. Configuration and testing can be done remotely using a sensor emulator, which allows offline updates and modifications, shortening setup time on actual production equipment.
Vision sensors now offer remote monitoring possibilities, pairing a sensor and separate touch screen to support inspection capabilities in difficult-to-monitor areas. Once vision sensors have been installed, users can operate the remote features to configure, monitor, and update inspection requirements for all vision sensors, providing a new comprehensiveness to product inspection.
For food manufacturing and other washdown environments, vision sensors can be provided with enclosures of IP67 ratings or greater in plastic or stainless steel to accommodate harsh conditions.
Field applications
Vision sensors can perform specialized functions in food packaging and distribution applications, ranging from reading barcodes on cartons to verifying packaging labels. For example, many food operations require a date/lot code to be present on the packaging. To verify each package has that information printed on it, a vision sensor can use a match inspection function, which captures an image of the date/lot code. When the inspection is running, if the sensor detects a package without the code, the sensor sends a fail output to the control system, which tells the line to reject the project. This ensures the correct range of products is easily identified if a recall occurs.
Track-and-trace functions are also crucial for ensuring product authenticity. For instance, a vision sensor can effectively inspect and authenticate wine bottles through barcode readings. A vision sensor first reads the 2D Datamatrix codes, typically printed on the bottles' labels. The scanned information is then either inspected by the vision sensor's internal data comparison tool or sent externally to a remote secure database. If a barcode is misapplied for that product, is not recognized by the system, or suggests a possible counterfeit, the product is rejected and quarantined for investigation. Vision sensors configured with 2D Datamatrix barcode reading capability are commonly used to read and verify 2D Datamatrix barcodes to track and trace products in the manufacturing process and throughout the distribution infrastructure.
As vision sensing technology continues to develop, manufacturing processes will experience significantly improved error-proofing and productivity, creating a product that is not only of the highest quality, but also meets the most critical industry expectations.

Brown signs Minor League deal with Texas
Matt Brown, who struggled at Triple-A Salt Lake in 2009 after a brilliant spring for the Angels, apparently has found new opportunity with the AL West rival Rangers.
A third baseman with some experience at first as well, Brown has signed a Minor League contract with Texas and will be invited to Spring Training, according to MLB.com colleague T.R. Sullivan.
The 27-year-old has a career Minor League line of .269/.349/.461 in parts of nine seasons.
Brown has 124 Minor League homers but did not launch one in 27 Major League at-bats, in 2007 and 2008 with the Angels. He was non-tendered this winter by the Angels, making him a free agent.
After crushing the ball all spring, Brown slumped to .245 in Salt Lake with 13 homers and 69 RBIs in 107 games. Teammates there felt he struggled heavily with the death of former teammate and friend Nick Adenhart on April 9.
2 Comments
I was hoping Matt would be a big bat for the Angels in years to come. He represented himself and our country well in the Olympics. I wish him the best of luck and hope he goes 4 for 4 while the Rangers lose.
I guess this is really a great chance for Matt Brown to prove his worth. After all, this guy has been having hell of a lifetime with the Triple A-salt Lake. I do not think that he could ever reclaim his career if he doesn?t get into the Rangers smart card squad. This is his opportunity of a lifetime. I hope he makes the right decision. After all, he is not injured and all and hence that may really give him the necessary grip here!

A lot, as it turns out.
Last year, three states -- Washington, California and New York -- surveyed dozens of major insurance companies about what they're doing to adapt to risks posed by climate change, a potential game-changer for insurers' investments and the risks they take on.
An independent climate-change group, Ceres, this morning released its analysis of the responses to that survey.
Of the 184 companies surveyed, Ceres concluded that only 23 of the companies had comprehensive climate change strategies. "Those companies provide a roadmap for the rest of the industry as it begins to wrestle with the issue," the report's authors wrote.

TUSCALOOSA | Snowmen quickly melted to slush Thursday afternoon when the sun erased most traces of a heavy morning snowstorm.
TUSCALOOSA | Snowmen quickly melted to slush Thursday afternoon when the sun erased most traces of a heavy morning snowstorm.
The heavy snowfall started in Tuscaloosa around 10 a.m. and continued until around 1 p.m. Most of the snow had melted after a few sunny afternoon hours.
"Intense snowfall rates were needed to overcome the 40-plus degree ground temperatures so the snow could begin accumulating," according to a Thursday afternoon National Weather Service briefing. Meteorologists estimated that between 1 and 2 inches accumulated in western Alabama counties before the system moved east.
Law enforcement responded to dozens of wrecks caused by the wintry conditions, but no major injuries were reported. In Tuscaloosa, police responded to 23 wrecks between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. — more than three times the seven they worked in drizzly conditions on Wednesday. As of 4:30 p.m., University of Alabama Police responded to four crashes and Alabama state troopers had responded to nine. Northport police worked several wrecks. Officers there blocked Charlie Shirley Road briefly after several vehicles slid off the road within a short time period. Several accidents were reported in Lamar County, where officials urged people to stay off the roads, and in Pickens County, where all roads were closed for a few hours.
Road conditions improved quickly as snow moved out of Tuscaloosa around 1 p.m. and the sun emerged. The Tuscaloosa County Public Works Department reported that melting snow and above-freezing temperatures cleared roads in the western and northern ends of the county that experienced problems earlier in the day.
Storm spotters reported to the National Weather Service that about 3 inches of snow were measured in Berry, 1 inch was measured near the Tuscaloosa Regional Airport and 1 inch was measured around Shelton State Community College. An EMA volunteer recorded 1.6 inches at Northwood Lake in Northport, and another measured 1.5 inches in Samantha, said Tuscaloosa County Emergency Management Agency Deputy Director Billy Green.
The only roads that remained closed in Tuscaloosa County on Thursday have been closed for the last couple of days because of flooding in areas along Alabama Highway 69 South.
Area schools and colleges canceled classes and activities Thursday. Tuscaloosa County Schools dismissed between 12:30 and 1 p.m., Tuscaloosa City Schools dismissed between 1:15 and 2:15 p.m.
Today, the start of school will be delayed for all Tuscaloosa City Schools. Lesley Bruinton, spokeswoman for the system, said school will begin at 10 a.m. and that all buses will pick up children two hours later than normal.
Tuscaloosa County Schools will also begin classes at 10 a.m. After-school events will take place as scheduled. Shelton State Community College canceled all classes and activities after 3 p.m. The University of Alabama canceled classes after 3:15 p.m. and will resume at 10 a.m. today. The Tuscaloosa County Courthouse and all Bank of Tuscaloosa branches will open at 10 a.m. today.
Sun and breezy conditions were expected to dry the roads before temperatures dropped to freezing again Thursday night, avoiding any icing of roads and bridges.
Sun and an afternoon high of 52 degrees are predicted for today in Tuscaloosa, according to the NWS. No rain is forecast until the end of next week, which will give flooded rivers a chance to recede during the next two or three days.

Somali pirates are back in the news after kidnapping a couple from Tunbridge Wells (my hometown incidentally) as they sailed their yacht from the Seychelles to Tanzania. I hope they are released safe and sound but I can't help thinking their course was reckless, given the number of attacks on boats and ships – many bigger and faster than the Chandlers' Lynn Rival.
Now it emerges that some of these other ships have begun using armed guards. The debate has rumbled on for a long time, and this recent comment piece at Lloyd's List ends by once again arguing that taking guns to sea solves nothing…
In truth, seafarers are innocent targets in a dilemma that can only be mitigated by unified government naval protection and, ultimately, by solving the complex political woes of Somalia and its neighbours. Encouraging seafarers to shoot back would only endanger seafarers' lives.
But in a press release that I almost didn't read, from the EU's anti-piracy taskforce, it seems that vessels are now taking things into their own hands. Gone are the unarmed security teams. Now we have armed fishing boats.
In the afternoon of October 27th 2009, 350 nautical miles east of Mogadishu, Somalia a French Fishing Vessel was attacked by pirates in two attack skiffs. The pirates opened fire on the Fishing Vessel. Her embarked military Vessel Protection Detachment (VPD) fired warning shots after which the pirates broke of [sic] their attack.
This is the inevitable result of our collective inability to come up with ways of tackling Somalia's problems and cannot lead anywhere good.

Great company that always shows the best professionalism. Christian runs a great business, and I can always count on him and his crews to deliver professional, on time results.
Christian and his team are very professional and really care about every project. Communication is timely and the team is always reliable. Thanks Christian for all your continued help on my projects and electrical emergencies !
Christian and team were excellent. They arrived, fixed our issues and were great value
They were prompt, courteous, and very professional. Would highly recommend. Ron Reiley(Kingsway Church facilities manager)
Christian and his team are simply the best. They are responsive, very knowledgeable and do a clean job. Contact them for any electrical problem and you will for sure be in good hands! Thank you Christian and team!
Christian was the man! He is so knowledgeable, trustworthy and clear about what work needs to be done and helping me to prioritize the job. I am so glad I read google reviews first and picked CT electric over anyone else! He was on time professional and had invaluable insight and set clear expectations for cost and time. Thanks!!!
I recently used CT on a flip property in Cinnaminson, New Jersey. I was completely satisfied with the customer service and the quality of work that I received. Christian is an excellent communicator. I always felt like I was " in the know" with regards to the work CT was hired to do. The work was completed in a timely manner and met all quality standards. I would recommend these guys to anyone and I will be hiring them for all future projects!
Christian and the crew at CT Electrical stand-out amongst the competition -- They arrive on time, every time and stay in communication leading up to and during their visit. They make sure the job is done right (and in the rare instance something isn't, they stand behind and come back to make it right). Their quotes are upfront, above board and accurate. They are conscientious and their service is top notch. Highly recommend them!
Quickly returns calls. Arrived on time when providing both the estimate and doing the job. Followed up a few days later to be sure we were satisfied.
CT Electrical is an excellent supplier of all kinds of electrical services. They just completed a job at my house in Mt Laurel. The arrived when scheduled and completed the work quickly and efficiently. They kept me appraised of their progress as they completed each task on the punch list. When the work was completed, the cost was exactly the amount that was estimated and agreed to. I would highly recommend CT Electrical for any small or large electrical work you may need at your home or business.
Christian and his electricians are the best. I hired them for electrical work on a kitchen remodel which included a few large tasks! They are very knowledgable, professional, timely, affordable, neat, and truly put the customer's needs first. Each member of the team took time to explain all the details and went above and beyond to make sure the work was done to code and also to my satisfaction. Working with various contractors can have its challenges. However, I had 100% trust and confidence in CT Electrical and they exceeded my expectations. Many thanks for a job well done guys! Will definitely be using them again in the future.
Excellent service, very polite, on time service. Pricing very reasonable. Very knowledgeable and professional. Thank you- Christian.
Excellent work at a reasonable price and timely service!!! I'm so glad I've found my permanent electrician for any future issues!!!
CT Electrical did a wonderful job on upgrading my electrical panel, Christian was terrific explaining the problem and finding the solution. Great group of guys and I highly recommend for any electrical job. Thanks again Christian, Joe & Jason.
These guys are fantastic! I had them completely rewrire an entire building for me. Very professional. Extremely happy with their work. I would use them for all my electrical work in the future.
Efficient, clean, knowledgeable, friendly! They did an amazing job at our office . Thank you!
Very punctual, guys were at the door at the agreed to. True professionals and reasonable price. Will definitely call again and recommend to anyone with electrical needs
Christian and all the guys at CT Electrical were a pleasure to deal with throughout and a bright spot in our renovation project that was otherwise problematic. Professional, friendly, competent, responsible, helpful with suggestions (even when it meant less work and money for them), responsive, and with all that still got the job done timely and at a reasonable price. Will be calling on them for our electrical work needs in the future and would not hesitate to recommend them.
These guys are the best of the best. Very skilled electricians. Arrived when they said they would and competitive pricing. Wouldn't trust anyone else. Thanks again guys for doing such a beautiful job installing our expensive fixtures and moving around our outlets in a clean and timely manner. Highly recommend them.
These guys exceeded my expectations. They came in and did exactly what I wanted. Boy did they work really fast!
Nothing but great things to say about Christian and his team. During the estimate he walked through explaining everything that needed to be done and why. They were more concerned that the work was done well and on time than just doing the job and getting paid. They will be my first call when any electrical needs arise in the future. If you have work to be done, do yourself a favor and at least contact them.
As a business professional we understand the pressures of meeting client needs and providing an excellent service. Within the last month or two, we have referred CT Electrical to approximately 5 of our clients. All clients were extremely satisfied with CT's services and will continue to refer them to any clients in need. Thank you CT for taking care of our client's needs in a professional and timely manner.
Installed a chandelier. Did a great job! No issues. Worked around my schedule to get it done. Really professional team.
i needed quite a bit of electrical work due to old wiring in our 1957 Cherry Hill house. I called Christian and he responded quickly.Job was estimated, and completed promptly. Electricians were polite and thorough. Minor problem arose after job was completed and it was taken care of quickly. Christian was especially easy to deal with and work was great! Would recommend highly and would certainly use their service again.
CT Electrical & Contracting team is Knowledgeable, clean, punctual and accommodating. They were always on time and cleaned everything once they were done. I would recommend them to anybody for electrical work.
Christian puts other electrical contractors to shame - and I know - I used no less than 6 other outfits in South Jersey over the past couple years and Christian and his crew are in a different class. On time, over-prepared and exceptionally professional. Christian is consistently available and responds instantly - I wonder if the guy ever sleeps!
I cannot thank Christian enough for a job well done! He was responsive to my needs and helped cut costs for a larger job. Christian was very professional and personable which made the visit more enjoyable. Christian even fit us in to a very busy schedule to ensure work was done on time for a house sale. I will definitely be using CT Electrical for future repairs and recommending them to family and friends.
Top notch work from Christian. He was here when he said he would be , he took pride in his work, very patient with a difficult job and would not leave till it was done right. He made sure he cleaned up afterwards. I could not have picked a better electrician. Beautiful job, thank you!!
They replaced an old pushmatic panel board with a newer SIEMENS panel and installed several GFCI outlets in the kitchen. Extra work had to be done as the old pushmatic panel was narrower than the new SIEMENS panel which required expanding the opening and cutting out a stud right next to service entrance. I was looking to have even more receptacles replaced with GFCIs and Christian politely explained what is recommended and that I did not need additional receptacles replaced. The work is completed on time in a professional manner at a reasonable price. I would recommend them to friends and family.
Quick response adequate service
We needed a multi-functional bathroom fan installed. My husband could not install it because the fan installation had to be completed in the attic and the attic access is small. We had already taken down the existing fan before we realized this. I contacted the company on Monday and they were able to complete the work Tuesday. However, they did not install the multi-functional on/off switch stating the wiring wasn't sufficient to support the switch. My husband installed the switch when he got home. So it was not a wiring issue. I rated this company a 4 because of the quick response, the fact they performed the work during the COVID19 pandemic, and the major reason we hired them was to do the attic work. If they would have installed the switch I would have rated them a 5.
Top notch service
I had some upgrades done in my condo. The team at CT responded quickly with a quote plus spent time to talk to me about what I wanted done. Christian, Donny, and Nico were very professional, friendly, and did clean work. I am happy that I discovered them and will contact them for future work.
After searching for a local electrician,I was VERY fortunate to discover Ct Electrical Contracting Solutions.Christian was personally who I dealt with,The OWNER,who was quick to set up a free estimate/diagnosis and stuck to his word,even setting up an earlier appointment.He was friendly ,professional and THOUROUGH.He examined ALL our wiring after I explained our house had to have Knob n Tube removed before we purchased it,which he did reassuring me the job had been done properly.He then examined,tested our Circuit breakers completely before I turned our furnace ON to demonstrate the cause of our concern,a LOUD hum/buzzing noice which seemed to be eminating from our breaker box whenever the furnace kicked on. I was SO relieved when Christian indicated the problem was in fact our DUCTWORK,which he resolved with the proper Duct work tape I was fortunate to have on hand.Result,No CHARGE,Thank heavens for an HONEST reliable contractor NOT out to fleece some customer,He EVEN evaluated some other potential future issues I had questions about before he left. I'm SO thankful I took his card,and I'd HIGHLY recomend Christian to ANY/ALL who are in need of elictrical assistance.5 very enthusiastic STARS!

The service I experienced from electrical and contracting solutions was amazing. He called me and they were out the same day, took care of the problem right away! Highly recommend them for any of your electrical needs, I know I will be using them again! Just excellent work.
Excellent Work / Exhaust Fans Installation
Christian and his team did an excellent job installing 2 bathroom exhaust fans in 100 year-old home. Explained work prior to execution and were very courteous and professional. Careful with existing plaster and did a great job cleaning up the area debris, etc. Even met a quick turn-around timeline. Definitely would recommend.
High quality service
These guys where on time and very professional ..... also finished the job in a timely matter .... I will definitely be using these guys again
Excellent service
I had CT Electrical upgrade my service to 100 amp. I got a detailed estimate and a reasonable price quote. Work was scheduled for 7am on 11/4. The crew was on time and ready to work. We walked the job and the guys went to work. They finished in less time then I was told and cleaned up all debris. The guys were very professional and answered all of my questions. CT Electrical is now my "go to" for any future electrical work.
Ceiling light
Very good work and very professional. Tales pride in his work
Highly recommend this company
Christian was great to work with. He provided great insight to help us make our decision but was very accommodating. His workers were polite, professional and efficient. They finished the job quickly and left everything clean and in order.
Superb service and reasonably priced

Professional, On-time and clean
Christian and his team are very professional, knowledgeable, punctual and accommodating. They started on time and finished on time and cleaned everything once they were done. I would recommend them any day to anybody who needs electrical work.
We'll use them again
Professional quote. Professional service. Great pricing. From our first call for a quote to the completed job, they were on top of everything.
Outstanding service
We were fortunate to receive a recommendation to Christian and his company. Wish we had known about him before when so many others don't return phone calls or show up. From the initial contact to completion of the work, Christian has great communication skills and if he's not available he quickly returns phone calls or emails and texts. He is honest and will tell you his plan for scheduling so that you can plan accordingly. He is a good listener, easy to talk to, and doesn't hesitate to make recommendations or provide ideas to consider. On day of work he and Donny were on time, attentive to the details of the work needed, hard working, did an excellent job and cleaned up before leaving. Would highly recommend Christian and his company.
Recommendation for CT Electrical and Contracting Solutions
The thing I appreciate most about Christian is that he was patient and answered all of my questions and I have a tendency to ask a lot of questions. Also, I like that he is accessible and returns text messages and phone calls. If he can't talk to you because he is on a job or giving an estimate, he still answers the call, explains that he is busy, tells you that he will call you back ASAP and he keeps his word. For me, that's not only refreshing but a real bonus!!
High quality, knowledgeable personnel.
Our service was excellent. I would strongly recommend them to anyone who needs electrical work done. Very knowledgeable and personable.
True quality and absolute professionalism
I was referred to CT Electrical & Contracting Solutions by a friend. I had multiple electrical issues that required some extensive work. I was scheduled immediately. The recommended work was thoroughly reviewed and estimate provided. Christian and his coworker Donny were punctual, efficient, and resolved the issues completely- providing me with peace of mind. I would definitely recommend this company! : )
Professional & Friendly
I cannot say enough thanks to Christian for a job well done! After a home inspection, a few items required repair. Christian was not only responsive to my call but came out to the house just a few days later. He repaired the items and for one larger item, offered affordable alternatives. He fit us in to a busy schedule and helped save on costs. He even spoke with the realtor to ensure all repairs were deemed necessary. Christian was very professional and personable which made the visit more enjoyable. I will definitely be using CT Electrical for future repairs and recommending them to family and friends. Thanks again!!
I've used this company for a couple of years now couldn't be happier with the service quality and clean up they did my house in Pennsauken and just had him for our new home great job
Electrical Work
Christian and his team did a wonderful job. They spent much more time at my house then they initially expected because the wiring was difficult to follow. Christian also spent a great deal of time and put much care into how the lights would be spaced and laid out. At the end of the process I had a wonderful job and it looked great. I would recommend Christian and his team to anyone needing any electrical work done.
Quality Work
CT did work in my condo that was a bit tricky, but it really came out great! Great attitude and communication.
Christian was very attentive and thorough in his work. He made sure he understood and addressed all my concerns.

Perfect Lighting
We had CT put under counter lighting in our kitchen. Christian recommended the best product for our kitchen that was available. He kept us up to date on the delivery of the items. He arrived on time and was patient with the installation. We appreciated the detail that he gave us on the product and the installation. He left our kitchen better than when he arrived. I will carry CT business cards with me and won't hesitate to recommend him to family and friends.
Great job!!
Christian (the owner) came to do a quote at my apartment. He was courteous, professional and gave a clear diagnosis. I had him contact my landlord to have the work completed. A proper follow-up to schedule. The work was done professionally and efficiently.
Prompt, efficient, professional
While selling my house after 28 years was a huge undertaking, the most feared thing was that the electrical system would have to be upgraded. I was right, the home inspection showed that was necessary. Thankfully, Christian was able to complete the task quickly and professionally. Even more impressive is Christian's wonderful personality, he was warm and friendly, and made this stressful time more pleasant. Thank you so much for all you did for me Christian!!!! Robin
Christian and Mike were great! I had a few hiccups on my end with lights/style and they were patient and professional. Above and beyond customer service and the jobs look great! Thanks, guys!
Would recommend to any and everyone!
Whatever electrical work you're looking to get done, CT Electrical and Contracting Solutions is right for the job. We had a pretty big kitchen renovation done recently, which required some rewiring of the old homeowner's DIY work, and the install of a new panel. These guys worked ALL day to get the job right -- really tireless professionals. They are on time, explain each step of the way, and are honest, upfront, and trustworthy. They work with your budget. You'll get a really good vibe from the moment they step into your home. Five stars for sure -- can't say enough good things about them.
I contacted this company with an urgent request regarding a portable electric heater that had overheated and left scorch marks on the connecting outlet. When Christian Trautz arrived, he quickly addressed the immediate problem, while answering with intelligence and professionalism, other questions that arose. Although he had a very heavy work schedule, he took the time to investigate and repair other possible life-threatening conditions that existed and in doing so, put my fears to rest. Much to my delight, he also explained in detail the answers to questions that arose with respect to all areas of electrical concern. I would not hesitate to recommend his services.
Ct electic was excellent

Took pride in his work!!
I'm so happy we called Christian for the job. We had a huge chandelier hung in a 95 year old house. The job was more involved than I thought. He was so patient and honestly one of the most conscientious workers I've ever dealt with. He made sure it was done right!! Thank you, beautiful work.
It is unusual to find residential services that provide both extremely high quality work and extremely high professional/personal standards. Should you choose to utilize the services of this firm, you will experience the top in prompt, professional behavior; thorough information for all your questions, and flawless workmanship. You will be asked your preference on options at every decision point, and you will receive very equitable pricing for the entire project. If the rateabiz scale had more options, I would give this firm SIX stars.
Christian was wonderful. I must admit I drove him a little crazy, even switching the fixture at the last minute, but he didn't complain and did all the work professionally and courteously and with a smile the whole time. Chris is a real pro and I would recommend him to everyone. thanks Chris
Great Service
I called this morning and CT Electrical gave me an afternoon appointment. The owner showed up right on time. He was very nice and explained the problem and fixed it in no time. Great service! They will become my regular electrician. Thanks so much.
Extremey pleased with service from CTS
The electrician from CT Electric Contracting Solutions arrived promptly at the scheduled time both for the consultation and for the actual work that had to be done. He explained why he was using the type of switch plates that were required and was knowledgeable about safety issues which he explained to me. Christian Trautz was professional and amiable. I would highly recommend Mr Trautz and this company to others who are in need of quality electrical service.
Excellent Customer Service
I was extremely satisfied with the work performed by Christian. He was very professional and knowledgeable and took the time to thoroughly explain the issues we were experiencing. I would definitely use C&T for any future electrical work and would also recommend them to my family and friends.
They're the best, don't hesitate to give them a call.
We had a very dangerous electrical situation in a house we are renting resolved thanks to Christian. He went above and beyond to make sure the electrical in the house was safe. I will definitely recommend this company to anyone who needs electrical work done.

Excellent work!
Chris was reliable, responsible and provided excellent customer service. Exceeded all expectations. Very happy with the job!
Excellent work for electrical panel replacement.
They replaced an old pushmatic panel board with a newer SIEMENS panel and installed several GFCI outlets in the kitchen. Extra work had to be done as the old pushmatic panel was narrower than the new SIEMENS panel which required expanding the opening and cutting out a stud right next to service entrance. I was looking to have even more receptacles replaced with GFCIs and Christian politely explained what is recommended and that I did not need additional receptacles replaced. The work is completed on time in a professional manner at a reasonable price. I would recommend them to friends and family.
Top Notch Professionals!
I am a Realtor and time is always of the essence in my profession. Christian and CT Electrical Solutions were timely in their response and multiple follow ups to make sure we understood the scope of their work...Very professional. I would highly recommend them to anyone with electrical needs!
projects big and small
I have had work done in my home by many contactors of various sorts. I have to say Christian and his team had a great attitude about my electrical projects both big and small. They were prompt, organized, tidy, and fair on price. They did a professional job when other vendors said they could not do what I wanted or were going to do the work in an unfinished looking or incomplete manner. Great with follow up, really refreshing to have someone do what they said they would, in the time frame set. Christian and the team were friendly and trust worthy, I was comfortable having them in my home while I had to be out.
Very professional
Suggestions and recommendations were made. Extremely polite and accommodating. Excellent job!
CT Electrical & Contracting Solutions Is First Rate!
We have worked with CT Electrical & Contracting Solutions several times since we moved into our new home. Christian Trautz and his team are always extremely professional and meticulous about their work...and especially leaving your home exactly the way they found it. I have recommended CT to friends and neighbors without hesitation and would do so again.
The Best Electrician I've ever hired
Christian by far is the best electrician I've ever hired. He is a friendly guy that explains step by step what he is going to do (or is doing) and is willing to work with you every step of work or installation. (He installed a track light system for me and spent close to an hour talking with me about configuration before he just rushed to install it). He remains conscious of cleanliness the entire time (ie apologized several times that he had to stand on my countertop at times to reach the ceiling). When he and his partner (I believe it was Bill) left, there wasn't a speck of dust or dirt anywhere. HIRE THIS GUY, you will not regret it!
Professional Service at a reasonable price
As a Realtor my clients always need professionals who will get the job done quickly and at a reasonable price. I feel confident referring CT Electrical to my best clients as I know they will always be treated with professionalism and fairness. Thanks for having my back.
We have a great Pantry space!!!
Christian & crew showed up promptly. Did all the work, as specified, cleaned up & tested everything. We had a walk in closet converted to a pantry, a vanity light replaced in a guest bath, and a light-sensor porch light installed. Looks great! Love it! Thanks guys! Fluorescent light in closet did not last & they are replacing it. No charge.
Service and panel replacement
Last week I had my electric panel replaced by CT electric. I was in need of an upgrade to my panel because I added a line for outside lighting I had done myself. I have a 100amp service and thought I needed to jump up to a 200amp service to get more space in the box. Christian from CT came out and after a quick look around my house and a few quick question, he pointed out that jumping up to a 200amp service would just be a waste of money. So we kept the 100amp service and just did a panel upgrade which was a new panel that had more space for new breakers. The difference was a few hundred bucks. So thanks much to CT and Christian for not selling me on something I didn't need. Thanks again and I will be sure to pass your companies name to anyone I know that needs electrical work.
Hire them!!!
Christian and his team were neat fast professional and answered all my concerns. We will hire again.
Fast, Reliable, Fair-Priced Service
CT Electrical and Contracting Solutions repaired dozens of fluorescent light fixtures in my companies office. The work was done quickly at a fair price. CTECS has also provided their services for multiple clients of my company. My clients were more than satisfied with their services. I would recommend this company to anyone needing electrical services.
CTECS preformed above and beyond our expectations!!!
It is such a pleasure to have true professionals who care about their work. I hired CTECS to hang one very large fixture/chandelier and two fans in a great room. Upon arrival, Christian could see that if he did the job the way it was planned, we would not be happy with the results. He gave us some sound advice as to what we were having done and suggested another option, which my husband and I agreed was much better. As he started the project, it seemed like it would go smoothly and quickly, but no such luck. They ran into numerous issues and problems (all of which I can attribute to our home). They could have done an "ok" job... They could have said they couldn't do it... but they didn't! They stuck to the program and kept working till they over came the glitches and finished the job perfectly! In addition, they left my place clean, with everything back in its place. Wonderful job! Thanks CTECS, you have earned a loyal customer!

text: Chemical Use Chemicals serve many functions in hydraulic fracturing. From limiting the growth of bacteria to preventing corrosion of the well casing, chemicals are needed to insure that the fracturing job is effective and efficient. Why Chemicals Are Used Given today's technology, chemicals must be used in hydraulic fracturing to ensure the producing formation is effectively treated. The chart shown below depicts generic hydraulic fracturing chemical usage including the types of chemicals, their uses in the process and the result of their use. Read more about What Chemicals Are Used As previously noted, chemicals perform many functions in a hydraulic fracturing job. Although there are dozens to hundreds of chemicals which could be used as additives, there are a limited number which are routinely used in hydraulic fracturing. The following is a list of the chemicals used most often. This chart is sorted alphabetically by the Product Function to make it easier for you to compare to the fracturing records .

Most patients who have had LASIK surgery tell me, "I can't believe the procedure was so fast and painless!"
During our initial consultations, many patients express concern about pain during and after LASIK. The great news is that during surgery most patients do not feel anything other than slight pressure on the eye and perhaps some mild discomfort.
In preparation for your LASIK surgery, we'll administer some anesthetic eye drops that numb your eyes. As a result, you will only feel some pressure while the laser reshapes your cornea. Some patients may experience a slight feeling of discomfort from the instrument we use to keep your eye open during the procedure – since our natural inclination is to blink. However, because the surgery only takes a few minutes, this discomfort is very brief.
During the recovery period, you may experience some mild stinging or dryness. This is part of the normal healing process and usually only lasts a few days. Artifical tear drops often help to quickly take care of these symptoms.
If you're interested in seeing exactly what you'll experience during the procedure, watch our video of live LASIK surgery (displayed below). You'll hear firsthand from one of our Emory Vision patients. Still have questions about pain during LASIK surgery? I'm happy to answer them!


text: Remember when we saw that black Dodge Challenger SRT8 making some runs at Irwindale Speedway? Remember the unknown "blonde bombshell" at the wheel last week? Well, it's confirmed — she is a bombshell, and now she's no longer "unknown." Turns out it was Alison Haislip of G4TV doing a bit of test dragging with Chrsylerberus' new Mopar muscle car. Here we get to see her take a stab at a Shelby Mustang that almost loses it into the wall while losing to a girl — well, at least that's what it looks like from the editing. We're just stuck wondering how a bunch of tech nerds got their hands on one of these before us. Hey Dodge, are you listening? [G4TV]

Hideo Yoshimura
Whenever I think about the 8hours endurance race, the memory of POP comes into my mind. In 1978 when the first 8hours endurance race took place in Suzuka, I just recall POP's face with the biggest grin on his face when Team Yoshimura got the winning checker flag.
His effort toward the first endurance race was enormous. This is because there was the biggest opponent ever which was Team Honda RCB. Everybody was pretty positive that Team Honda will get the first checker flag. This challenge was like climbing the Mt. Everest without the oxygen masks or crossing Sahara desert on your feet, but not POP. He always had a challenging spirit and never thought of the word "losing". Without challenging, he thought there was no word such as "impossible". Instead, he only had the word "Victory" in his mind. He brought two of the American riders, Wess Coolie and Mike Baldwin, to Team Yoshimura. Their communications between the few elite mechanics were excellent. When I stepped into the pit, I thought POP looked very comfortable and felt the energy coming out from his body. Everybody had a pessimistic thinking about this race and everbody was just thinking of one thing which was same as POP, the first checker.
Honda RCB easily destroyed themselves. I thought it was the challenging spirit which led them to success. I thought it was absolutely important to have such feeling in order to win the race. This kind of feeling also resembles to our daily life.
Next year, the 8hours endurance race will have 20th anniversary. * It will be 20 years after the first win in Suzuka. We cannot see POP in the pit anymore but his spirit and policy will be in Team Yoshimura eternally. Next year's 8hour endurance race will be really interesting! (* This writing is written in 1996.)
Yoko Togashi
- Profile -
Born in 1954. Translator and Free writer. With the experience of participating in Road race, completing 9000km South American Patagonia race, she started to write about Kenny Roberts and Freddy Spencer in 1983. She is also interpreting in Honda HRC of the foreign riders.
The example of books are like, "We'll win sometime" (Tokuma Shoten), "Honda NR History" (Sankaido), and "Legend of POP YOSHIMURA" (Kodansha).
On one side of partition (1 entrance of 5.4 meters in depth) in his older brother's factory (Yoshimura Steel), POP's shop, although small, attracted American's from the nearby Itamura Air Base (presently Fukuoka Airport) due to his English speaking ability and the service of fixing engines. The shop itself had no specialized machines, however since there was a welding machine, and other various heavy industrial machines, it was not an inconvenient place to do work. Since the Americans from the base were paid a fixed salary the dollar was strong, and they didn't have to pay taxes, they flocked to the shop to buy cheap bikes. From unwrapping the bikes purchased by the Americans, to standing them up, to making them run correctly, the shop had become the source for bikes for the Americans. POP had even placed a sign for Kyushu Balcom Motors, however, he couldn't sell even one of his 4 BMW's. After the Korean War, the economy worsened. This means that even if the new model comes out, they could not afford the new machine. This is the reason why the bike riders took care of their bikes well.
POP, looking doubly satisfied, earnestly polishing the port. At his favorite circuit. In the middle of the Fuji 1,000km race. More than anything else, the greatest concern is the engine tuning. and when the machine is ready of for the circuit, it is an alternation of joy and sorrow at the result of the race. Although, POP was worrying about these things day in and day out, repeatedly expending energy, he had an immeasurable source of power. For a normal person rest would have taken precedence. However, there were no moderate words for POP's work, there was only pursuit. It was as if there was a goddess of victory waiting for him, or a state of pleasure which no one but POP could see. At this time, his trademark was NGK cap.
The staffs of Yoshimura also increased to 10, but there were no breaks from work. He was only able to average 3 to 4 hours of sleep a night. Even to make 1 cam-shaft, the grinder was set by hand, the shaft placed in the engine to check the timing, and manually adjusted if the timing was off. He worked on this for a whole day, without which, he could not rest easy. No matter how unfortunate or sad they felt about the work, there was nothing else he could do, so eventually he would do the work again. Even during this time, when he had a small chance to ride his bike near his home, he would feel better. Strangely POP is wearing a Honda cap. (around 1968)
Due to the burn from the fire on 1977, he could not attend Daytona but on 1978, all of the Yoshimura family came to Daytona with new machine GS1000. His younger daughter, Yumiko, got married with Shouhei, Kato(left) who is the owner of Yoshimura Parts Shop Kato at Atusgi, Kanagawa. His older daughter, Namiko, got married with Mamoru, Moriwaki(right) who is owner of Moriwaki Engineering at Suzuka, Mie. They were both excellent riders and excellent tuners. This year was first time for Kato to challenge the AMA Superbike Race as a third man from Yoshimura with GS750. Moriwaki did the modification to the frame of Wess' Z1 and totally changed the handling. And also this year was the first time for Yoshimura to use their new exhaust so everybody was saying that "Yoshimura is doing something illegal because they are too fast". His son,Fujio Yoshimura, and two step sons made him really comfortable and POP got his smile back.
At Crosby, POP continued to calculate how to continue racing the final 2 hours of the race. With chalk used for the sign in the pit, he feverishly wrote on the floor of the pit, the amount of time he had calculated. Even this was probably somehow a link with God. Although his calculations were not as deep as a computer's, POP's head was a calculator of how to win the race. And BINGO, victory was right there.
Team Yoshimura was focused on the 8 hour endurance race, but the Yoshimura machines continued to play an active part in the novice 4 hour endurance race. The winners were Katuro Takayoshi/Hitoshi Ishigami of Team Mirage Kanto. Mirage Kanto is a group of novice riders who are in the training phase. Many of these young riders join the Yoshimura. Consequently, this year in the 8 hour endurance race, Yukiya Oshima, who was introduced by Moriwaki, and will join Yoshimura next month, will debut for 10 laps.

In your hometown, Santa might not wear a big, red, wool suit. Maybe it's most seasonally appropriate that he would sport a Hawaiian-print shirt and mandals instead. In short, yours is not the let-it-snow kinda holiday. So, in case this week brings you to sunnier shores
we're coming with you, we've found some sartorial inspiration in the new Sea NY pre-fall collection.
In this new line, Sea has laid out a few party-perfect looks that are more shoreside than fireside. Click on for a few solid examples that you can replicate right now. Plus, the photos from Sea's lookbook are so pretty and peaceful, we almost prefer them to the yule log.

Groundswell Independent Promotion
We are an independent live music concert promotion company based in Austin, TX. We provide financial backing, find and contract artists, rent a venue and finally work out all of the details so the show can pop off cleanly. We strive to provide an effective, down-to-earth, artist-driven approach to the business. This image is in contrast to the norm in this city, which is dominated by a single large-scale corporate entity. We aim to be a progressive, accessible, HUMAN alternative for national as well as local acts looking to book gigs in the region.
-Artists, booking agents, venue managers and local media outlets.
-This constitutes an eclectic blend of creative types of mixed gender involved in the professional music industry.
-Expect about two-thirds men, one third women, primarily in their late 20's to early 40's.
This is a professional, industry crowd. As such, expect them to be highly savvy with regards to visual media. The company logo should be geared toward these industry professionals, NOT toward concert-goers or music fans in general.
-The domain name is Groundswell.in
-I would like the word "Groundswell" to make the bulk of the logo, and to have .in beneath it. I would like the ".In" to be much smaller, and (I suspect) to sit beneath the primary word.
-Find a way to form the word "Independent" or "independent" from the .in domain name suffix, such that the suffix is one shade, but the entire word is clearly understood
-I am not sure yet whether I would like the final company name word, "promotion" to be displayed on the logo. Let's see :)
-It needs to look clean and professional, but don't make it look like it belongs to a bank or a financial product. We are in a creative industry, so the logo should be visual art.
-Some sort of industrial style, perhaps using the old WPA style, or a clockwork motif, or something other related to industry. I want to give the impression of a solid foundation and of progress and construction
-A design where the logo appears to be forged from molten steel or rock. Something that evokes the effort, heat, sweat, smell and look of a forge
This project is dear to my heart, so I will be following the process closely. Please take creative license and get into it. I will be.
Finally, thank you all for your time and effort!

Btw I'm not 100% voting you out yet, time is left in the game so no fear. BUT you are suspicious but this doesn't mean you're the wolf. Just like my past comment reflects the same conclusion. If you want to deny the mistake then you may.
Just very weird you showed zero care you'd be throwing yourself in the fire. Only a wolf would think that way.
