TULSA, Oklahoma - With icy winter weather once again a threat, the City of Tulsa is stocking up on salt and has a plan in place to treat roads across the city.
City of Tulsa's Public Works Department says it has 8,700 tons of salt on hand and 2,000 more tons expected to arrive Thursday.
Streets maintenance manager, Tim McCorkell says they've fueled up the city's fleet of 67 salt spreaders getting ready for the storm.
He says Tulsa will focus on main streets starting sometime late Thursday or early Friday.
"We'll watch our weather sensors and when the sensors are moving down closer to freezing, then we'll be loading the trucks and sending them out that way," said Tim McCorkell.
McCorkell says the city uses salt instead of sand, because sand is more costly to clean up. The City of Tulsa spent nearly a million dollars during the 2007 ice storm to use and remove the sand from the roads.


The booklet gives an overview of non-chemical measures to protect crops from different types of pests. By damaging the plants these pests reduce the quantity and the quality of the crop.
The publication is not a manual, but aims at ways of thinking about crop protection in communities of farmers, so that they first consider non-chemical measures instead of automatically reaching for (often toxic) chemicals.
C. As an example one chapter is dedicated to Striga, a plant parasite that seriously damages cereals and legumes. This indigenous problem can be tackled with solutions based on the knowledge of local groups. Bringing these groups together can be an important step towards applying local knowledge into local interventions – the possible beginning of 'Farmer Field Schools'.
Lists of useful books and addresses, and a glossary of technical terms complete the booklet.

You're the Inspiration: A Collection is the sixth solo album by Peter Cetera released in 1997. It was the second album released by Cetera for River North Records. While labeled as a 'collection', the album is not really a compilation of 'Greatest Hits', but rather a collection of previously recorded duets, a few new songs and a few re-recordings of old Chicago hits.

Background
Following the release of One Clear Voice in 1995, Peter Cetera and his label began the task of creating a "greatest hits" type package to release. This proved to be challenging as many of Cetera's charting singles were from the four albums he had released under former label, Warner Brothers. Compounding the problem further, he had charting duet singles on albums by Agnetha Fältskog and Cher, which were the property of their record labels. In addition, many of his hits from his career as a member of the band Chicago were the property of either Warner Brothers or his old band mates. When River North approached Chicago and their self-run record label, Chicago Records, about licensing the master recordings, the band refused outright. In 1997 and 1998, Chicago Records used the songs on two The Heart of Chicago greatest hits packages put out in a partnership between Chicago Records and Warner Brothers.

While the label sorted out the licensing his duet hits with Warner, Geffen and WEA, Cetera stepped into the studio to record five songs for the compilation. The first two were original songs, "Do You Love Me That Much?" and "She Doesn't Need Me Anymore". The latter was a song about Cetera's daughter Claire, who turned 14 shortly after the album was released. The other three were new recordings of Cetera's Chicago hits, "If You Leave Me Now", "Baby, What a Big Surprise" and "You're the Inspiration". The song keys were lowered a whole step down to suit Cetera's loss of range. "You're the Inspiration" sounded country flavored while "Baby, What a Big Surprise" had a harder edge electric guitar than the original due to the lower keys and was missing the final verse.

In the end, the album featured all of Cetera's hit duets, along with two new songs and three re-recorded songs.

Release

Unlike One Clear Voice, You're the Inspiration: A Collection made the Billboard Top 200 album charts, peaking at #134, higher than his last two studio albums and higher than his first solo album from 1981. The first single, "Do You Love Me That Much?" made the Billboard Adult Contemporary Chart, hitting #6. This was followed by "She Doesn't Need Me Anymore", which hit #27 AC.

For the third single, the label remixed the new version of "You're the Inspiration" with backing vocals from R&B vocal group Az Yet. The group had scored a hit single remaking Cetera's "Hard to Say I'm Sorry" a year earlier, featuring Cetera's vocals at the end. An ocean side video was filmed featuring Cetera and the group, as well as Cetera's newborn daughter Senna in some scenes. The single peaked at #77 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #29 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart.

Cetera did not go on tour in support of the album. When he finally returned to live concerts in 2002, he performed the original Chicago arrangements of the songs.

The album sold approximately 250,000 copies as of 1999 - a commercial disappointment by some standards, but was one of the top selling albums released on the small record label.

 "The Next Time I Fall" (with Amy Grant) (Bobby Caldwell, Paul Gordon) – 3:40

 "She Doesn't Need Me Anymore" (Cetera, Walt Aldridge) – 4:30
 "Baby, What a Big Surprise" (Cetera) (original key: C) (re-recording: Bb) – 3:30

 "After All" (with Cher) (Tom Snow, Dean Pitchford) – 4:04
 "S.O.S." (with Ronna Reeves) (Benny Andersson, Björn Ulvaeus, Stig Anderson) – 4:05

Notes

Track 3 on the Philippine and Hong Kong CD versions of the album is "You're the Inspiration" with Az Yet, and also contains "You're the Inspiration (New Version)" as track 12 which is the solo version of the song and the same as track 5 on the U.S. release listed above.

Constantin Mitea (* 2. Dezember 1920 in Călărași; † 17. Dezember 2002 in Bukarest) war ein rumänischer Politiker der Rumänischen Arbeiterpartei PMR (Partidul Muncitoresc Român) und ab 1965 der PCR (Partidul Comunist Român).

Leben
Constantin Mitea schloss 1940 die Hochschule für Handel und Industrie in Bukarest ab und war danach als Sekretär sowie bis 1943 als Lehrer an der Handelsschule in seinem Geburtsort Călărași tätig. Im Anschluss besuchte er von 1943 bis 1945 die Schule für Reserveoffiziere in Ploiești und arbeitete 1945 kurzzeitig als Hilfslehrer an der Jungenschule in Călărași. Danach begann er eine Tätigkeit als Journalist und wurde im April 1946 Redakteur der Tageszeitung Ialomița Liberă. Im Dezember 1946 trat er als Mitglied der Kommunistischen Partei Rumäniens PCR (Partidul Comunist din România) bei und wurde 1947 Reporter der Wirtschaftsredaktion der Tageszeitung Scînteia, des Parteiorgans der PCR. Nachdem er 1952 Chef der Wirtschaftsredaktion sowie 1964 Chef des Feuilletons wurde, wurde er im Februar 1965 zum Mitglied des Redaktionskollegiums sowie zum Chef der Redaktion für Bürgerangelegenheiten von Scînteia berufen.

Nach einem Studium an der Parteihochschule "Ștefan Gheorghiu" wurde Mitea 1965 stellvertretender Chefredakteur der Parteizeitung Scînteia. Am 11. Juli 1969 wurde er auf einem Plenum des Zentralkomitees Kandidat des  (ZK) der PCR. 1970 übernahm er zudem den Posten als stellvertretender Chefredakteur der Literaturzeitschrift Contemporanul und unterstützte die Essayistin Ileana Bratu, deren Werke er veröffentlichte. Andererseits war er maßgeblich daran beteiligt, dass Film- und Theaterkritiker Dinu Kivu am 15. Oktober 1971 das Redaktionskollegium von Contemporanul verlassen musste. Auf einem weiteren Plenum wurde er am 21. Juli 1972 Mitglied des ZK der PCR und gehörte diesem Gremium bis zum Sturz von Nicolae Ceaușescu im Zuge der rumänischen Revolution am 22. Dezember 1989 an. 1977 wurde er schließlich Chefredakteur der Parteizeitung Scînteia sowie im Februar 1977 auch Berater des Generalsekretärs der PCR, Nicolae Ceaușescu. 1980 wurde er des Weiteren Mitglied der Großen Nationalversammlung (Marea Adunare Națională) und vertrat dort zunächst den Wahlkreis Nr. 6 Costești sowie zuletzt zwischen 1985 und 1989 den Wahlkreis Nr. 7 Topoloveni.

Im August 1983 wechselte er in die Parteizentrale und war dort ebenfalls bis zum 22. Dezember 1989 stellvertretender Leiter der ZK-Abteilung für Propaganda, Presse und Rundfunk. Mitea war ferner zwischen dem 5. Oktober 1987 und dem 28. Juni 1988 Sekretär des Zentralkomitees der Partidul Comunist Român. Für seine langjährigen Verdienste wurde Mitea mehrfach ausgezeichnet und erhielt unter anderem den Orden der Arbeit Dritter und Zweiter Klasse (Ordinul Muncii), den Stern der Sozialistischen Republik Rumänien Fünfter und Vierter Klasse (Ordinul Steaua Republicii Socialiste România) sowie den Orden 23. August Dritter Klasse (Ordinul 23. August).

Divorce often takes a toll on the children, and it appears that Wendy Williams is aware of that fact which is why she has decided to work things out with her rumored cheating husband, Kevin Hunter.
On her hit talk show, Williams often weighs in on top Hollywood couples in the midst of separation and scandals.
The former radio personality is known for being vocal and extremely outspoken on thorny topics, and therefore, has no trouble telling female stars to dump and walk out on their cheating lovers.
Several media outlets recently published pictures of Williams' spouse alongside his alleged mistress, Sharina Hudson, near the home they share.
It was reported that Hunter and Hudson had been together for over ten years.
However, Williams is sticking to her husband like glue for the sake of her teenage son, Kevin Hunter Jr.
The scandal has rocked Williams, and while she is hurting inside, she has no plans to change her ways or express her feelings in public.
Rumors are swirling that the drama has affected Williams' staff members too.
Should people stay in a marriage for the children?
Wendy now knows how others feel! She need to STFU if she can't deal with it. ANY excuse will do. Staying with a ugly a**, cheating m.f. for HER SAKE, not their son's. Here's some ??? with yo thirsty a**!
Wendy Williams is a fraud! How can she be so interested in everyone elses marriages n woes when she should be worried n concerned about her own problems ! She knows that husband of hers has a mistress….always have had side chicks! She is very much delusional and an idiot 4 him. She talks too much and needs to shut the hell up!

Dirty Secret: Keeping Children Clean Won't Harm Their Immunity To Disease, Says New Study
Researchers say microorganisms found in a modern home are, to a significant degree, not the ones that humans need for immunity.
By Zenger News Desk July 6 ,	2021
In medicine, the "hygiene hypothesis" states that early childhood exposure to particular microorganisms protects against allergic diseases by contributing to the development of the immune system. (Helena Lopes/Pexels)
WASHINGTON — The theory that modern society is too clean, leading to defective immune systems in children, should be swept under the carpet, as per a new study by researchers at University College London and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.
The findings of the "study" were published in the "Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology."
In medicine, the "hygiene hypothesis" states that early childhood exposure to particular microorganisms protects against allergic diseases by contributing to the development of the immune system.
However, there is a pervading view (public narrative) that Western 21st-century society is too hygienic, which means toddlers and children are likely to be less exposed to germs in early life and so become less resistant to allergies.
In this paper, researchers point to four significant reasons which, they say, disprove this theory and conclude humans are not "too clean for our own good."
Graham Rook, the lead author and Emeritus Professor of Medical Microbiology (University College London Infection and Immunity), states that humans need exposure to beneficial microorganisms in order to maintain their health.
"Exposure to microorganisms in early life is essential for the 'education' of the immune and metabolic systems," he said.
"Organisms that populate our guts, skin, and airways also play an important role in maintaining our health right into old age: so throughout life, we need exposure to these beneficial microorganisms, derived mostly from our mothers, other family members, and the natural environment."
"But for more than 20 years, there has been a public narrative that hand and domestic hygiene practices, that are essential for stopping exposure to disease-causing pathogens, are also blocking exposure to the beneficial organisms."
"In this paper, we set out to reconcile the apparent conflict between the need for cleaning and hygiene to keep us free of pathogens, and the need for microbial inputs to populate our guts and set up our immune and metabolic systems," said the lead author.
In a review of the evidence, the researchers point to several factors in their study. They highlight that those microorganisms found in a modern home are, to a significant degree, not the ones that humans need for immunity.
The vaccines, in addition to protecting humans from the infection that they target, do a lot more to strengthen the immune systems. Therefore, the study concludes that humans do not need to risk death by being exposed to pathogens.
The findings also reveal concrete evidence that the microorganisms of the natural green environment are particularly important for a person's health and that domestic cleaning and hygiene have no bearing on our exposure to the natural environment.
Lastly, the research demonstrates that when epidemiologists find an association between cleaning the home and health problems such as allergies, this is often not caused by the removal of organisms, but rather by exposure of the lungs to cleaning products that cause a type of damage that encourages the development of allergic responses.
"So cleaning the home is good, and personal cleanliness is good, but, as explained in some detail in the paper, to prevent the spread of infection, it needs to be targeted to hands and surfaces most often involved in infection transmission. By targeting our cleaning practices, we also limit direct exposure of children to cleaning agents," said Rook.
"Exposure to our mothers, family members, the natural environment, and vaccines can provide all the microbial inputs that we need. These exposures are not in conflict with intelligently targeted hygiene or cleaning."

STATEMENT FILED BY NORMAN A. RANDALL, CHAIRMAN, BURLEY COMMITTEE,
NORTH CAROLINA STATE GRANGE, LEICESTER, N. C. I am Norman Randall, chairman of the North Carolina State Grange burley committee, from Leicester, N. C.
As Mr. Caldwell has told you, we meet at least once a month, and right at present one of the principal questions is, What are they going to do about burley and are they going to force poundage controls on us? It is a good question; if that is done it will cost our small farmers from one to three hundred dollars per acre, based on the average production in the burley belt as a whole. We are proud of the fact that we have been able to build our average production to over 2,000 pounds per acre from 1,200 pounds since the program started. Evidently this has not lowered the quality of our tobacco, as has been reported, since we again led the whole belt in price per pound last year.
To limit the pounds that can be sold from an acre will also penalize the small farmer who needs to make every acre of his small farm produce to the limit in order to have sufficient income to have a decent living. According to reports from Washington, the representative of the burley tobacco Warehouse Association and the Kentucky Burley Growers Association stated last week we would not need a further acreage cut next year as it looked like the present strict enforcement got the surplus under control. Why try something new when the present program is working so well? Most North Carolina growers would pre fer a further acreage cut to poundage control.
We also feel that poundage control will be a problem to enforce. Policing the warehouses to prevent the surplus tobacco from being sold will require a small army of men. Poundage control works a hardship on farmers since a surplus can only be declared after the tobacco reaches the scales, thus entailing labor and expense and the use of cropland that could produce other crops.
We insist that the minimum acreage provision should be used to control burley tobacco production in order to guarantee some income to the small farmer. In summing up, we believe the existing law will adequately take care of the situation if given a fair chance.
The rth Carolina farmers have never tried to force other farmers to a low production level but have tried to raise the grade of our product as well as to equal and sometimes to exceed the standards, in both grade and poundage, of other States. It would be unfair to penalize good farming methods.
STATEMENT FILED BY John B. VANCE, PRESIDENT, VIRGINIA FARMERS UNION,
RICHMOND, VA. For the record, my name is John B. Vance. I am State president of the Virginia Farmers Union, the Old Dominion's second largest general farm organization representing approximately 20,000 farm people. I am indeed grateful for the privilege of presenting this statement to the committee today to express our views and recommendations with respect to some of the many serious economic problems confronting farm people. May I also say that we in Farmers Union feel that the Senate Agriculture Committee is to be commended for holding this series of hearings over the United States so as to make it possible for the farmers themselves to discuss their own problems directly with you. Since the legislative branch of our Government has traditionally been the branch most responsive to the needs of our people, it is therefore natural that the farm people are today looking to the Senate Agriculture Committee and the Senate of the United States to take appropriate legislative action to correct some of the economic inequities which are squeezing the very lifeblood from the veins of the American farmer.
What should be the desired end of the legislation you author next year? If I interpret correctly the feelings and thinking of the farm families I represent, and I sincerely believe that I do, they are concerned over whether they can survive as family units on the land or whether they are doomed somewhere down the road to the status of a day laborer. It is people in the United States that are important-not the assortment of economic doctrine of one brand or another you have had paraded before you. The farm families I represent will not worry about the kind of legislation the committee authors next year as long as they know you hold foremost in your deliberations the human considerations. You have had testimony on many different phases of the agricultural situation. With
few exceptions, however, the opinions expressed have been related to how to preserve our family-type pattern of agriculture.
Parity and how to obtain it is of great concern to farm families in Virginia. The interest in the level of farm prices grows out of the concern of farm families over the question of survival. The farm families I know best are interested in parity farm prices as a means of attaining the good life. They are not interested in getting rich.
Farmers are in trouble. Make no mistake about that. Caught between high, rigid, inflexible production cost on one hand and falling farm prices on the other, there is a very definite question as to how much longer the average family farmer can withstand the pressure without being forced out of business. Since 1952 net farm income is down by 23 percent; prices received by farmers have dropped an average of 19 percent since 1952. The farmer's share of the consumer dollar was only 40 cents in July of this year, which is the same as the 1935-39 average and is down 3 cents from a year before.
A release dated October 31, 1955, issued by the Agricultural Marketing Service of the United States Department of Agriculture entitled, "The Farm Income Situation," had this to say regarding the current farm situation :
RECENT TRENDS IN FARM INCOME
"Farmers' realized net income in the third quarter of 1955 was at an annual rate of approximately $10.3 billion. This was about 5 percent less than the second quarter rate and 10 percent below the rate in the third quarter of 1954. The number of farms in the United States has declined approximately 242 percent a year since 1950.
"The decline in realized net income and a similar decline in net income of farm operators which includes the value of inventory change—was due primarily to lower prices of farm products accompanied by only a small reduction in expenses. Prices received by farmers averaged 4 percent lower in the third quarter of 1955 than in the second quarter, and 5 percent lower than in the third quarter of 1954. Marketings were about the same except for seasonal changes."
In brief, this release tells me that (1) farm income is continually falling at the rate of about 5 percent each 6 months; (2) the drop in farm income is due to lower farm prices and rigid production cost; and (3) over 300,000 farm people are being forced off of the farm each year. I submit, Mr. Chairman, that this is a situation which is not good for agriculture; it is not good for business; and it is not good for our country.
In sharp contrast to the deepening farm depression are the glowing reports we farm people hear about the enormous profits being piled up by big business. Stockholders' dividends up 19 percent since 1952; corporate profits up 32 percent after taxes since 1952; manufacturing workers' weekly earnings up 13 percent since 1952; the average person's income up 14 percent since 1952. Let me make it clear that farmers do not resent the fact that business, industry, and labor are prospering. We do not begrudge labor a minimum wage of $1 per hour. We do not begrudge the approximate $5 billion cut in corporate taxes allowed big business hy act of Congress last year with approval of the President. No, the farmers only ask for an opportunity to earn a fair share of the great productive capacity of this country, and we do not believe that 90 percent of a fair price is too much to expect for the things we grow on our farms.
A major part of the responsibility for the dilemma in which American agriculture finds itself today must rest squarely on the shoulders of the Eisenhower administration and more directly on the shoulders of Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson. About all the farmers have gotten from this administration is an occasional pat on the back and hollow assurances that "You are not as bad off as you think you are." The greatest injustice ever promulgated on the farmers of this country is the so-called flexible price-support program. In fact, it is a no-support program rather than a low-support program. Any person who has farmed for the past 25 years knows that its basic theory is completely unsound and unrealistic. The theory, of course, is that by manipulating the level of price supports you can control production. Its basic philosophy is that farmers can be forced to stop producing by lowering the level of prices. This cock-eyed theory has already been disproved. In this connection I would like to cite the following production figures as reported by the Crop
Reporting Service of the Department of Agriculture for several major commodities on which the Secretary has reduced the price-support level :
Now, gentlemen, what is already a serious injury to agriculture is about to be compounded further in 1956 if the full force and effect of both the flexible price-support system coupled with the modernized parity formula is allowed to take effect. Just let me cite what the additional loss will be to Virginia farmers alone in 1956. The figures I will use are for commodities which will be most severely affected in 1956—peanuts, wheat, cotton, and corn.
It is estimated that Virginia will produce approximately 100,000 acres of peanuts in 1956. If the 1956 yield should be 1,750 pounds per acre, which is a conservative yield figure, our total 1956 crop will be about 175 million pounds. Using present parity of 13.5 cents with price supports at 90 percent of parity, this crop would have a gross value of about $21,175,000.
In 1956 modernized parity will become effective on peanuts. This will probably lower parity itself from 13.5 to 12.8 cents. This is a reduction of 5 percent which is the maximum allowed in any one year under the transitional formula. Now, according to the most recent estimates I have seen, it appears that the total supply next year will exceed 130 percent of normal consumption. This means that the Secretary will have the authority to reduce the price-support level to 75 percent of parity; and if we can judge the future by the past, this is exactly what he will do. Under a lower parity, plus supports at 75 percent of parity, the support level in 1956 could very well be only 9.6 cents. A 175 million pound crop at 9.6 cents per pound would gross $16,800,000.
The loss which Virginia peanut farmers will take in 1956 as a result of flexible price supports and modernized parity is $4,375,000.
Using the same process of reasoning and applying the provision of the modernized parity formula plus flexible supports, Virginia farmers will stand to lose at least $13 million as a result of lower price supports on wheat, corn, and cotton in 1956 alone.
This will then mean that Virginia farmers alone will be at least $17 million worse off under the flexible modernized parity price-support program than they would have been under 90 percent of present parity.
The already weakened farm economy of my State simply cannot stand to have an additional $17 million siphoned off without serious repercussions. I submit that it is not only in the interest of the farmers, but it is in the best interest of every businessman, every banker, every worker, and every other person in our State to prevent this bone-crushing loss to Virginia agriculture.
On behalf of the membership of the Virginia Farmers Union, I wish to submit the following recommendations which we believe if adopted will largely correct this gross hardship on the farmers of our State and Nation :
1. Enact legislation which will restore price supports on all basic commodities at no less than 90 percent of parity effective for the 1956 (rop.
2. Enact legislation which will provide for use of dual parity instead of modernized parity. In this connection I would like to point out that the modernized parity formula as provided in the present law helps no one and works a grave injury on the producers of peanuts, corn, wheat, and cotton. It helps no one, since the few commodities on which it provides a higher parity price are those commodities which the Secretary has refused to authorize effective price supports. The dual parity formula would simply give the farmers the advantage of the higher of the two.
3. Enact legislation which will provide the producers of dairy products, beef cattle, and poultry, as well as all other agricultural groups, the legal authority to use marketing quotas as a means of maintaining the proper balance between supply and demand as is done in the case of the basics. The law should further provide, as in the case of basics, that quotas shall
not be effective unless approved by the producers themselves in a referendum. If the producers of any agricultural commodity approve the use of quotas, then we urge that the price of that commodity be supported at no less than 90 percent of parity through the use of production payments, commodity loans, or any other method which will insure that the effective price to the producer will be at least 90 percent of parity.
4. Generally speaking, we are opposed to the method of price supports now being used by Secretary Benson in attempting to strengthen the hog market. When $80 million of the taxpayers' money is used to support hog prices, it should be so used as to insure that the producers of those hogs will receive the direct benefits and not the packers. If the purchaseprogram method of supports is to be continued, then any packer from whom the Government purchases hogs should be required under penalty of law to pay the producers not less than 90 percent of parity.
5. In addition, we favor legislation which will provide for a conservation acreage reserve. Under this program, the Secretary of Agriculture would determine the number of acres of farmland not needed in the year ahead for the production of farm home-used and commercial sales of crops, including hay. The Government would then stand ready to contract with farm operators over the country to put as much of their land into the conservation reserve as each individually cared to, receiving in return a conservation award per acre equal to usual cash rent or customary landlord's share for putting the land into its optimum conservation condition. If special facilities, land treatments, or construction were required, the farmer would be eligible, in addition, for an agricultural conservation payment, under the ACP program to defray a part of the cost. In case more acres were made available for the reserve than the national total, the Secretary would assign each State and county its proportionate share of the national total. An individual farmer could offer to place all, a part, or none of his farmland into the reserves.
6. To bring about a vast increase in consumption of food commodities, Virginia Farmers Union urges :
A. Adoption of a nation-wide food allotment stamp plan.
B. Expansion to all schools of the national school lunch program now serving less than one-third of the schools.
C. Improvement and expansion of the fluid milk for school children proyram to provide free at least 2 half-pints of milk per child per day and pay local school district administrative costs.
D. Adoption of improved Federal standards and inspection of perishable farm commodities in terminal, as well as shipping, markets with adequate Federal financing.
E. Adequate nutrition standards for the Armed Forces and veterans hospitals, penal institutions, hospitals, and other public and private nonprofit agencies by means of commodity donation or food subsidies.
F. Adoption of a credit program to encourage modernization and im
provement of perishable farm commodity terminal markets. Many United States-produced farm commodities, up to 10 percent of total production, must in normal years find a market outside our national boundaries. This market can and sould be expanded. Additional agricultural attachés and improved advertising and merchandising will help some. But just as in the case of domestic market, the really big increase in market demand for United Statesproduced farm commodities can come only from increased purchasing power in foreign countries, or from United States Government purchases designed for foreign shipment. To raise our export shipments we favor
A. Negotiation and establisbment of additional international commodity agreements for all raw materials that enter importantly into international trade, similar to the International Wheat Agreement, which will bring into agreement all of the important nations as well as all of the exporting nations for each commodity.
B. Negotiation and establishment of an international food and raw materials reserve or clearinghouse, to stabilize supplies, reliere famines, and stabilize prices of all food and other raw material commodities that enter importantly into international trade.
C. Continuation and intelligent expansion of the point + program of United States aid to economic development of other free nations in a way that will increase coordinated economic growth of the nations of the free world.
D. Continuation of the reciprocal trade agreements providing for world. wide tariff reductions and customs simplification. I assure the members of the committee that we are grateful to them for devoting so much of their time to the study of the plight of the Nation's farm families. Again, let me state that our interest is in agricultural programs that protect the families on the land. We sincerely believe that it is in the interest of all the citizens of the United States to adopt programs such as I have discussed which will preserve our long-cherished system of ownership and operation of individual farms by individual farm families.
STATEMENT FILED BY EDGAR L. WILLIAMS, SALISBURY, MD. I am a fruit, vegetable, and grain grower in the heart of the fruit and vege table section of Wicomico County, Md.
Being a grower of these commodities, I would like to tell the committee that the land taken out of production of commodities under controls should not go into the production of fruit and vegetables.
STATEMENT FILED BY Miss ISABELLA C. WILSON, CHAIRMAN, MASON COUNTY
FARM BUREAU DAIRY COMMITTEE, ARBUCKLE, W. VA. There the eight ways that I believe the dairy farmer can be benefited in his present calamitous condition. Some of these conditions may be helped by the Congress of the United States and some by our own State legislatures.
I. I believe that the Pure Food Division of the Pure Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Agency should be administered in the United States Department of Agriculture and that adequate funds should be provided to stop the adulteration and misbranding of milk, cheese, ice cream, butter, and any other dairy products.
The Congress of the United States passed a bill making it possible to color margarines yellow and the honorable gentlemen should be as willing to protect the dairy farmer as they are to protect the manufacturer of margarines. Margarine sold at 56 cents per pound uncolored ; now it is selling cheaper than lard, even colored, wrapped in waxed paper, cut in quarters, and packaged in boxes printed in three colors.
Somebody told the cotton farmer that the dairyman was against him. Somebody persuaded him to rob the cottonseed meal of its fat to make margarine. This fat is needed in the cow's feed to make a milk rich in cream; and the dairyman is paid for his milk according to its cream content. The price of milk will vary as much as 80 cents per hundred by cream content alone.
The feed manufacturers are now using animal fat in the dairy feed which is indigestible by cows that can digest fat only in the form of oils.
Now I leave it to your imagination where they get that animal fat since plain lard is as expensive as margarine, and tallow (lanolin) is used in beauty preparations.
II. Dairy farmers are not getting 75 percent of parity for their fresh fluid milk.
There is a lot of rubbish being talked about the need of dairymen being more efficient. Any businessman will tell you that sooner or later he will go broke with a business operating at 25 percent or more below what it costs him to produce. There is a fine dairyman in our community who has been operating for nearly 50 years who is spending his life's savings to operate his dairy farm. He plants to sell his herd in the spring.
If you expect a dairyman to produce an essential food like milk he must be protected.
There are some individuals and groups that society must protect for its own preservation. Society protects the wife and mother-we must do it for its own protection.
If we want good clean milk from healthy cows we must give the dairyman the cost of production. One form of that protection is against the importing of foreign dried, skim, and whole milk.
Here in our area, the industrial area of the Kanawha and Ohio Valleys, the section hand on the railroad, the truckdriver, the worker in the chemical, metal plants, and electrical plants, receive many times what the dairy farmer with


Recurrent miscarriage could be caused by a lack of resident stem cells in the lining of the womb, according to a study.
Researchers at the University of Warwick in the UK examined samples of womb lining from 183 women and found that women with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), defined as three or more consecutive miscarriages, were lacking an epigenetic signature typical of stem cells. This suggests that women suffering from RPL have fewer stem cells in their womb lining compared with women in the control group.
'After an embryo has implanted, the lining of the uterus develops into a specialised structure called the decidua, and this process can be replicated when cells from the uterus are cultured in the lab,' said Jan Brosens, professor of obstetrics and gynecology at the University of Warwick, who led the study.
'Cultured cells from women who had had three or more consecutive miscarriages showed that ageing cells in the lining of the womb don't have the ability to prepare adequately for pregnancy,' he said.
Miscarriage affects between 15–25 percent of all pregnancies within the first trimester, and around one percent of women will have RPL. Although many risk factors of RPL are known, up until now the cause has not been well understood.
The lining of the womb relies on resident stem cell populations to renew themselves following each menstruation cycle, miscarriage and birth. The researchers believe that a lack of stem cells could speed up the ageing of the womb, triggering an inflammatory response that predisposes women to an increased risk of pregnancy failure. While an inflammatory response can facilitate embryo implantation, it can produce negative effects later in the embryo's development.
'We have discovered that the lining of the womb in the recurrent miscarriage patients we studied is already defective before pregnancy,' said Professor Brosens. The findings could be used to develop a treatment for RPL, and pilot interventions to improve stem cell populations in the womb are anticipated to start as early as spring 2016.
'I can envisage that we will be able to correct these defects before the patient tries to achieve another pregnancy. In fact, this may be the only way to really prevent miscarriages in these cases,' said Professor Brosens.
Siobhan Quenby, professor of obstetrics at the University of Warwick and co-author of the study, said: 'Our focus will be two-fold. First, we wish to improve the screening of women at risk of recurrent miscarriage by developing new endometrial tests.
The findings were published in the journal Stem Cells.

Full disclosure here, this is labeled as a mystery/thriller on Goodreads and I wholeheartedly disagree with that, enough so that I would say it's fiction and leave if at that. I feel like expectations are super important to me as a reader and this is really not a thriller whatsoever. I'm actually not even sure what it is to be totally honest, so there's that too. Is there a mystery? Sure I suppose so but I mean that in the loosest sense of the word. Is it a thriller by any means? Nope, not at all. Is it really an examination of a family on the brink? Yes, that's the most accurate explanation that I can come up with.
I enjoyed the dynamics of this family that were explored and couldn't even imagine being in the same situation myself, losing a child is unfathomable but having your other child be at fault? Horrific, and seeing Pete and Leigh deal with the aftermath was fascinating and heartbreaking. How do you chose between your child and your wife? You don't, it's an impossible dilemma.
The author did a great job bringing the main storyline to life, but there were several side plots as well that made it sorta messy for me. I just don't think it any added value to the story, in fact it was distracting for me. Just unnecessary and made the book longer than it needed to be. Overall an interesting book that mostly worked for me in the end, well drawn characters and solid writing, definitely enough to make me pick up her next book but it needed to be scaled back a little for me.
I agree with your review! Also, I was a little disappointed with Kip's storyline. IMO, it should have been a little more about him but it wasn't and most of the pieces he was in didn't provide any substance to the story.

Lansdowne pennsylvania
Lansdowne, Pennsylvania
Lansdowne, Pennsylvania, (population 11,044) was incorporated as a borough in 1893, but its history goes back much further. The Lenni-Lenape of the Delaware Tribe were the inhabitants of what is now Delaware County when Europeans first arrived in the 17th century. In 1682, William Penn opened the area, just six miles west of Philadelphia, to European settlement. Lansdowne became a quiet, agricultural community, which it would remain until the 19th century.
In the 1850s, the Philadelphia and West Chester Railroad laid a single track through the area, opening new economic possibilities. When the Pennsylvania Railroad bought the line and added a second track to facilitate passenger travel in 1881, Lansdowne experienced a period of major growth. Victorian homes of middle-class Philadelphians began to line Lansdowne's streets. At the same time, the railroad encouraged the development of industry and associated housing for workers. Businesses grew around the train station and created a downtown, serving the needs of what was becoming a diverse and vibrant early suburb of Philadelphia.
Today Lansdowne remains a walkable, tight-knit community with a rich architectural heritage. Residents recognize that preserving the borough's historic character is an essential part of shaping Lansdowne's future. From nominations of key resources to the National Register of Historic Places to participation in the Main Street program, the local government, the Greater Lansdowne Civic Association, and other partners work together to protect and promote Lansdowne's rich history.
Lansdowne has two National Register Historic Districts–the Lansdowne Park District and the Henry Albertson Subdivision–and two individually listed buildings–the 1927 Lansdowne Theater and the Twentieth Century Club. The theater is being rehabilitated for use as a performing arts center, and already houses two new, locally owned businesses in its storefronts, a good example of how historic preservation encourages reinvestment in a community. The Twentieth Century Club was built in 1911 by and for a small group of women whose objective was "to create an organized center of thought and action among women, for the protection of their interests and for the promotion of science, literature, and art." In its heyday the club had 500 members. The clubhouse was deeded to the borough in 1979 and now serves as a community center and rental venue.
The current Borough Hall is an adaptive reuse of the borough's 1903 firehouse, used through 1984. The first floor houses a model of the borough circa 1910. The Lansdowne Railroad Station (1902), designed by renowned Philadelphia architect Frank Furness, was restored after a 1992 fire and is used daily by regional rail commuters.
Lansdowne participates in a regional program called Classic Towns of Greater Philadelphia, an initiative of the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission designed to foster the growth of the region's older communities by promoting what makes each community a special place to live, work, and play.
Designated a Preserve America Community in October 2009.

The current refugee crisis is the worst in modern history, worse even than that provoked by the Second World War, with a total of 65 million people uprooted. This is due to an accumulation of national crises throughout the world: in the past six years, at least 15 conflicts have begun or reignite, while old crises in Somalia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Colombia continue. These conflicts cause global and local displacement of populations of people, the categorizations of which are important to distinguish. Refugees are persons displaced outside of their home country, while internally displaced persons (IDPs) are those displaced within their home country. The current 21 million refugees hail from Syria, Afghanistan, Somalia, South Sudan, and Sudan; 41 million IDPs (internally displaced people) currently live within Colombia, Syria, Iraq, Sudan, and Yemen. Both groups traditionally face persecution based on one of five grounds: race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group.
One in every 113 people on earth is uprooted. This totals 65 million people, which is equivalent to the population of the United Kingdom.
One-third of refugees have been in exile for at least 5 years, while the average length of time in displacement is 17 years.
In 2015, 34,000 people were displaced per day, at a rate of about 24 per minute. That's faster than an adult breathes.
Over half of all refugees come from Syria, Afghanistan, and Somalia.
Turkey currently hosts the most refugees; Lebanon is the largest per-capita hosting country, and is the same size as Connecticut. One in four people in Lebanon is a Syrian refugee.
Children make up 51% of refugees. Together, women and children represent 80%.
In 2015, over 1 million refugees arrived in Europe by sea; over 3,500 are dead or still missing.
So far in 2016, there have been 80,000 such arrivals by sea, 60% of which have been women and children.
On average, 2,000 sea-borne refugees arrive in Greece each day.
There are three traditional "durable solutions" to the refugee crisis: voluntary repatriation, local integration, and resettlement in other countries. Voluntary repatriation involves return of displaced persons to their homelands, in safety and dignity. Recently, we have seen the lowest voluntary refugee returns in decades, with a total of only 200,000 last year. Local integration into host countries happens infrequently due to host countries' concerns about resources. Resettlement in other countries, like the United States, is a critical tool of protection, offering safety and permanence. Unfortunately, it is greatly limited in availability, with less than 1% of refugees resettled in any year.
The difference between resettlement and asylum is important to note. Resettlement is managed by UNHCR, as people are referred and interviewed before entering a host country, such as the United States. This process can take years or decades. Asylum-seekers are spontaneous arrivals to a host country, and must apply for citizenship or resettlement without the guidance of UNHCR.
The Adopt-a-Future Campaign aims to integrate American communities in global solutions to the refugee crisis. It will enable communities to "adopt" and raise funds to support a specific school serving refugees in one of nine countries: Ethiopia, Rwanda, Yemen, South Sudan, Sudan, Kenya, Malaysia, Chad, and Pakistan. Participating communities will use fundraising tools and host Back-to-School events to raise awareness at home and to provide school supplies to resettled refugees in their own communities. For $250, an individual or community partner could provide 10 students with required school uniforms and supplies; for $30,000, a UNA-USA chapter of community partner can actually build a classroom at a school serving refugees. Such classrooms would serve the needs of at least 40 children for 10 years. CSUF Generation United Nations has pledged to raise $30,000 over the next two years, which will go towards building a refugee classroom in Yemen.
