Meeting in Louisville July 21-23 The GN MicroPlate™ Identifies over 500 Gram-negatives Salmonella, Shigella, Escherichia, Yersinia, Vibrio, and many more The GP MicroPIate™ Identifies over 200 Gram-positives Listeria, Lactococcus, Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, Bacillus, and many more Biolog's MicroPIate™ test panels are 96 well microplates preloaded with a versatile set of 95 different carbon utilization tests. The panels can identify over 700 species/groups of pathogenic and environmental bacteria currently in the data base. To identify an isolate you simply 1) culture the bacterium on an agar plate, 2) prepare a cell suspension in normal saline, 3) inoculate the panel with the cell suspension, and 4) incubate for 4 or 24 hours. The panels use Biolog's patented redox chemistry to detect utilization of carbon sources. If a carbon source in a well is utilized, the cells increase their respiration, reduce the tetrazolium dye, and the well turns purple.The panels cost as little as $3.95 each. Biolog's MicroLog™ Software is used to identify the bacterium from the pattern that results. The software will run on any IBM - compatible PC. With MicroLog 1 the reactions are read by eye and entered by keyboard onto the screen display. With MicroLog 2 reactions can be entered directly from a microplate reader. Biolog's MicroStation™ Reader can read a plate and transfer the data to the computer in only 5 seconds. The same instrumenta¬ tion can also be used for enzyme assays, chemical assays, and ELISA testing. For further details contact us by phone, fax, or mail.

I don't know where the time goes. This month it was the NCIMS meeting in Louisville. Next week it will be the 3-A meeting in Milwaukee. It seems I hardly get done with one meeting before the next one starts. There were many topics discussed at NCIMS. Many were related to animal drug residue issues. After much discussion, it would appear that the States and FDA will concur on some changes in the Pasteurized Milk Ordinance that will strengthen the program. The 3-A Sanitary Standards Committees will hopefully complete the revision of the 3-A Accepted Practice for HTST and HHST Pasteurizer Systems. This project has been a long one, but will provide the dairy sanitarians and the dairy industry with an updated tool to use in inspection and installation of these pasteurizer systems. While in Louisville I took the opportunity to contact the Galt House people to work out some last minute details for the lAMFES Annual Meeting. They assured me that they will be ready for us in July and will do everything possible to assure that we have a successful annual meeting again this year. If you haven't sent in your registration form, I would encourage you to do so. In the mail today I received a copy of the announcement for the Procedures to Investigate Foodbome Illness workshop. The workshop will be held July 19-20 at the Galt House prior to the lAMFES Annual Meeting. The agenda is very impressive. Enrollment is limited so if you are interested in learning more about investigating foodbome illness, send in your reservations early. This past week I had the fortunate opportunity to participate as a member of the jury to select the winner of the prestigious Samuel J. Crumbine Consumer Protection Award. This is an annual award given to a local public health agency that has demonstrated unsurpassed achievement in providing outstanding food protection services to it's community. There were several outstanding candidates and it was a really tough job in reaching a decision. I wish I could tell you who the winner is, but it would not be proper to tell you before the formal announcement. Special presentations will be made to the supervisors of the winning department at the lAMFES Awards Banquet. That's about all the news I can think of for now.

  • Report to the Vermont Cheese Council
    MAKERS & MONGERS Exploring Social Networks in the Regional Supply Chain for Vermont Artisan Cheese Prepared for: The Vermont Cheese Council By: Rachel A. DiStefano, M.S., Food Systems, University of Vermont Dr. Amy B. Trubek, University of Vermont June, 2014 I. Executive Summary Three major themes emerged from the social network analysis of supply networks for Vermont artisan cheese: types of relationships, varieties of retail operation, and importance of distributors. The results indicate that the regional supply chain is a multiplex system stemming from a complex balance between a cheesemaker’s goals and the needs of various retailers. Relationships: The relationships between cheesemakers and retailers ranged from highly social and personal to distanced and business minded. The social network is clustered around several well-connected cheesemakers and retailers. The scale of production and number of years in business influences a cheesemaker’s centrality in the social network. Retail: The majority of Vermont cheesemakers sell to retailers both inside and outside of Vermont. Vermont cheesemakers rely on a diverse variety of retail venues – from ultra-local general stores to large national supermarket chains – across the region. Food cooperatives, primarily in Vermont, emerged as highly central in the social network. The consistent champions of Vermont cheese outside of Vermont appear to be small specialty retailers – either dedicated cheese shops or gourmet food stores. Distributors: Distributors play crucial roles as intermediaries between cheesemakers and retailers. When distributors become involved in selling Vermont artisan cheese, cheesemaker-retailer relationships often resemble a sales network rather than a social network. Page 2 II. Background Why do people like Vermont artisan cheese? What makes it unique, desirable, and good to eat? Previous research with consumers has demonstrated that social information related to where and how Vermont artisan cheese is made is important—not just for preference but for physiological sensory experience.

  • COVID-19 Tourism Impact Update
    COVID-19 Tourism Impact Update Falkland Islands Tourism Sector Information and Guidance Concerning the Impact of COVID-19 No. 7 July 3rd 2020 INTRODUCTION Whilst COVID-19 has impacted every country in the world, it will affect destinations differently, and they will bounce back from this pandemic at different rates. This is becoming increasingly apparent today as Europe keenly opens up to tourism, but visitors from certain countries are not welcome in many destinations. The high rate of COVID-19 cases in Sweden has singled out, and many destinations are not welcoming visitors from the USA or Brazil at the moment. As airlines are slowly getting back into the air, although it will be a while before the number of flights gets even close to the pre-COVID-19 era, destinations are starting to put in place their entry requirements, and over the next two months it will become much clearer for consumers where they can travel and under what conditions. For many destinations that rely on the vast European market, this will be too late to enjoy a profitable tourist season, however it will at least set out the “new normal” for travel and get the industry re-started. The cruise sector is still finding its feet with the large oceangoing vessels still parked up, however there is more hope from the activities of the expedition sector, although not all these have immediate plans to operate. Hurtigruten is one line which is leading the way in the Arctic season and hopes this will prove to destinations it can operate safely.

  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.

  • South Pole-Aitken Basin
    Feasibility Assessment of All Science Concepts within South Pole-Aitken Basin INTRODUCTION While most of the NRC 2007 Science Concepts can be investigated across the Moon, this chapter will focus on specifically how they can be addressed in the South Pole-Aitken Basin (SPA). SPA is potentially the largest impact crater in the Solar System (Stuart-Alexander, 1978), and covers most of the central southern farside (see Fig. 8.1). SPA is both topographically and compositionally distinct from the rest of the Moon, as well as potentially being the oldest identifiable structure on the surface (e.g., Jolliff et al., 2003). Determining the age of SPA was explicitly cited by the National Research Council (2007) as their second priority out of 35 goals. A major finding of our study is that nearly all science goals can be addressed within SPA. As the lunar south pole has many engineering advantages over other locations (e.g., areas with enhanced illumination and little temperature variation, hydrogen deposits), it has been proposed as a site for a future human lunar outpost. If this were to be the case, SPA would be the closest major geologic feature, and thus the primary target for long-distance traverses from the outpost. Clark et al. (2008) described four long traverses from the center of SPA going to Olivine Hill (Pieters et al., 2001), Oppenheimer Basin, Mare Ingenii, and Schrödinger Basin, with a stop at the South Pole. This chapter will identify other potential sites for future exploration across SPA, highlighting sites with both great scientific potential and proximity to the lunar South Pole.
