A Summer of Mission OFFICIAL PUBLICATION OF THE DIOCESE OF SOUTHEAST FLORIDA www.diosef.org Volume 41 No. 4 August 2010 AA Summer Summer of of Mission Mission Success Story ummer is traditionally the season for “mission trips” — opportunities for members of our con- gregations to travel to another part of the world (or the country, or the diocese) to join in min- istry with friends old and new. Much of the Snews of our diocese is always directly concerned with mission; but this issue focuses on our outreach in our communities and around the world with an expanded “Committed to Mission” section offering stories not only about summer mission projects, but also about several ongoing outreach ministries.

That evening we had a farewell dinner with the Regional Office staff. On our final day in Ghana we visited the Cape Coast Elmina and St. George Castles. The castles are actually forts built by the Portuguese and British to house slaves captured from throughout Africa, prior to their being shipped to American and throughout the Caribbean. The dungeons where the slaves were housed were dark, un- ventilated and hot. There was a sense of dreariness and death there. We were shown the “Door of No Return” where slaves left the dungeons and were transported by small boats to the waiting ships. We left for the airport at 6 a.m. on Saturday, to allow plenty of time for customs and security procedures for our flight home. Processing for our departure proved to be interesting and instructive: Every item in both our bags to be checked and our carry-on bags was searched thoroughly by the airport workers; this search included linings of shoes and soiled underwear — everything.

Palm Beach County is larger than Delaware, but most visitors are aware only of the opulent “Gold Coast,” from Palm Beach to Boca Raton. But there are 37 other municipalities and unincorporated areas, and the county includes 47 miles of beaches on the east, and Lake Okeechobee and the Everglades on the west. Delray Beach, between Boca and Palm Beach, has become a lively, desirable place to play and live. West Palm Beach is becoming a shop- ping and entertainment destination in itself, far less stuffy than its rich neighbor across Lake Worth. And west of the coast, past the suburban communities, are citrus groves, ranches, and wildlife refuges. A BRIEF HISTORY THE COUNTY’S EARLIEST KNOWN RESIDENTS were Native Ameri- cans, but the region was claimed for Spain in 1513. The nascent United States purchased the territory of Florida three centuries later. The Seminole Indian tribe’s famous resistance to forced relocation promptedCOPYRIGHTED three wars. The third, fought MATERIAL between 1835 and 1842, ended Indian control of the area. The county’s oldest nonnative set- tlement, Jupiter, was founded as a wartime fort in 1836. The Jupiter Lighthouse began operating in 1860 and continues to the present. In the 1890s, visionary Henry Flagler, a founding partner of Stan- dard Oil, built the Florida East Coast Railway system from Jacksonville to Key West to open the state as a winter paradise.

  • Characterization of Pathogenic and Non-Pathogenic Vibrio
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Jingyi Du for the degree of Master of Science in Food Science and Technology presented on August 31, 2017. Title: Characterization of Pathogenic and Non-pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus Strains and the Antimicrobial Activity of Fruit Juice and Fruit Extracts against Seafood Pathogens Abstract approved: ______________________________________________________ Christina Ann Mireles DeWitt Vibrio parahaemolyticus is frequently isolated or detected from raw seafoods, especially shellfish. Also, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella spp. are pathogens that are frequently found in ready-to-eat (RTE) seafood, such as smoked fish and shellfish, seafood salad, cooked shrimp and crabmeat, and seafood consumed raw. Two studies to improve safety in RTE seafoods were conducted. FDA’s regulatory limit, 10,000 cells/g, for V. parahaemolyticus in RTE fish products encompasses both pathogenic and non-pathogenic V. parahaemolyticus. However, limited studies exist on the factors that influence growth and die-off rate of pathogenic and non-pathogenic V. parahaemolyticus strains. This study investigated the influence of temperature (5-30 °C) on the growth (positive µmax) and die-off rates (negative µmax) of pathogenic and non-pathogenic V. parahaemolyticus strains. There was a significant effect of strain type (non-pathogenic vs pathogenic, P < 0.001), temperature (P < 0.001) and a strain type x temperature interaction (P = 0.026). At 5 °C, µmax was negative for both strain types indicating die-off. At 10 °C, µmax was negative for two pathogenic and one non-pathogenic strain. From 15-30 °C, µmax was positive for all strains. When evaluating differences between strain type at each temperature, significant difference (P < 0.001) between strain type only occurred at 30 °C.
