Watch Voodoo Dead’s Full Performance From The Ardmore Last Night
It’s been a remarkable run for Voodoo Dead, as the all-star ensemble just wrapped up a four night jaunt through the Northeast. After two nights in DC and another in New York, the crew made their way to the Ardmore Music Hall in Ardmore, PA (near Philly) for two more nights along this Mardi Gras run, the first of which happened last night, February 11th.The band features the likes of Oteil Burbridge, Steve Kimock, Jeff Chimenti, Wally Ingram, Jackie Greene and Papa Mali, bringing some New Orleans flare to the music of the Grateful Dead. After a big jam with Brandon “Taz” Neiderauer the night before, the Voodoo Dead gentlemen got to work on a great show last night.After an opening set from the Funky Dawgz Brass Band, Voodoo Dead opened up their performance with funk classic “You’re The One” and kept the train rolling with Bob Dylan’s “It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry.” There were plenty of Grateful Dead favorites throughout the night, including “China Cat Sunflower > I Know You Rider,” “Bird Song,” “Scarlet Begonias,” and a show closing “Turn On Your Lovelight.”Check out a full video of the festivities below, courtesy of LiquidSilverStreams on YouTube.

On Saturday night, Bob Weir and Wolf Bros returned to The Capitol Theatre for their second straight night at the storied Port Chester, NY rock palace. The trio—comprised of Grateful Dead guitarist Bob Weir along with bassist Don Was and drummer Jay Lane—once again threaded together a number of Dead classics, RatDog favorites, and staple live covers in addition to welcoming a familiar high-profile guest to help them close the show: decorated guitarist Warren Haynes.Late in the second set, Bob Weir and company launched into “The Other One”. As Weir has been known to do with Dead & Company, he took the bus down a different path after the song’s first verse, diverting into Jerry Garcia/Robert Hunter ballad “Stella Blue”. As “Stella Blue” ended and the band rounded the corner back into “The Other One”, Weir instructed the crowd, “Everyone say ‘Hi, Warren’” as Haynes took the stage.After trading jazzy guitar runs with Haynes for several minutes, Bobby finished out second verse of “The Other One” before letting it bleed into “Not Fade Away”, capping the set with Warren adding texture on guitar and backing vocals. When the band returned for their encore, they once again brought Warren Haynes along for the ride as he and Weir traded verses on a rousing rendition of “Turn On Your Love Light” to send the crowd home happy.You can check out fan-shot video of Warren Haynes’ sit-in with Bob Weir and Wolf Bros below via YouTube user Sean Roche.Bob Weir and Wolf Bros w/ Warren Haynes – “The Other One”Bob Weir and Wolf Bros w/ Warren Haynes – “Not Fade Away”Bob Weir and Wolf Bros w/ Warren Haynes – “Turn On Your Love Light”Bob Weir and Wolf Bros continue their tour on Monday, November 12th at the Warner Theatre in Washington, D.C.

Read Full Story In the largest and most comprehensive study of heat-related illness to date, Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) researchers have identified a handful of potentially serious disorders—including fluid and electrolyte disorders, renal failure, urinary tract infections, sepsis, and heat stroke—that put older Americans at significantly increased risk of winding up in the hospital during periods of extreme heat.The study also showed that risks were larger when the heat wave periods were longer and more extreme and were largest on the heat wave day, but remained elevated for up to five subsequent days.“An innovative aspect of this work is that, rather than preselect a few individual diseases to examine, we considered all possible causes of hospital admission during heat waves in order to characterize the effects of heat on multiple organ systems,” said Francesca Dominici, professor of biostatistics at HSPH and senior author of the study.The study appears online December 23, 2014 in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA).Although it’s well-known that heat waves pose a health risk to older people, previous studies had investigated only a small number of potential heat-related health outcomes, such as cardiovascular and respiratory diseases.
LOOKING INSIDE FRUIT with X-rays helps prevent damaged fruit from reaching markets. Using a medical x-ray machine, Bill Tollner, above, can grade produce and help farmers and distributors learn which fruits are already damaged and will deteriorate in storage. When radiation and food products come in contact, many shoppers voice safety concerns at first. Tollner said the radiation levels used in this process are lower than the levels used in dental X-rays. “The canning industry uses X-rays to detect metal fragments to insure safety,” he said. “With this process, I’m using them to improve the quality and safety of food before consumers buy it.” “It occurs in Red Delicious apples. If you eat the apple right away, it has a delicious taste,” he said. “You just can’t store them, which creates a big problem for apple processors.” Water-core apples develop dots near the veins. Over time, the dots turn brown. Tollner found the X-ray equipment can easily detect water core in apples. It can “see” many other defects in carrots, onions and celery, too. “For example, some onion diseases cause air gaps between the rings,” he said. “The X-rays clearly show these gaps well before the onion shows visible signs of disease.” “One of our food scientists had been working on water core problems in apples,” he said. “He asked me to use the X-ray equipment on them.” Water core is a condition that causes apples’ internal moisture to increase. Why use X-rays? S. Omahen, UGA CAES “With apples, bruises are a big problem,” Tollner said. “We can detect old bruises before they can be seen by the human eye.” An engineer with the UGA College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, Tollner was using X-rays to study soil layers when a colleague suggested he try it with food products. Research proves its safety Using medical X-ray machines, Bill Tollner can detect imperfections in fruits and vegetables before anyone can see them.
You search for the best apples, handle them with kid gloves and still throw out half when the hidden bruises show up a few days later. You’d need X-ray vision to pick only the perfect apples. That’s exactly what University of Georgia researchers concluded. So they developed a new grading system to make sure the bad apples never reach supermarket shelves. How Scientists See Inside Fruit The fruit industry wants the systems “They’ve developed an optical grader. We’d like to combine the two machines,” he said. “Eventually, we’d like to see apples and other food items come through the sorter where the X-rays will find the internal defects and the optical viewer the surface defects.” Mechanical grading systems like these could help food processors deal with labor shortages. “We’re coming to a point in our country where labor to inspect food products just isn’t there,” Tollner said. “People feel they have more stimulating things to do than inspect food for minimum wage.” This method helps the fruit industry. S. Omahen, UGA CAES This new grading method could be especially useful for apple and onion processors who commonly store their products. “The whole goal is to keep the product on the shelf longer,” Tollner said. “Using this equipment, processors can pull out bad fruit before storing it side by side with good fruit.” The new X-ray grading system has received good reviews from apple processors in New York and West Virginia. “I plan to present the new process to Georgia’s Vidalia onion growers this month at an upcoming conference,” he said. Tollner is also working with U.S. Department of Agriculture researchers at the USDA Fruit Research Station in West Virginia. CHECKING THE DATA on fruit in an X-ray machine allows Bill Tollner, above, to look inside the fruit without cutting into it. This equipment is the same as used for medical x-rays.

The agency said it was still working on a proposal to broaden its feed ban so that ruminant protein would be banned from all animal feeds, not just ruminant feeds. The BSE case, Canada’s fifth, was discovered on Apr 16. In announcing the closing of its investigation of the case on Jun 16, the CFIA said the case fell within the same “geographic cluster” as the other four. It involved a 6-year-old purebred Holstein dairy cow in southwestern British Columbia. May 1, 2005, CIDRAP News story “USDA seeks Canadian-born cattle in BSE probe” Jun 20, 2006 (CIDRAP News) Canada’s latest case of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), or mad cow disease, probably resulted from contaminated feed, which might have linked the case with the nation’s previous one, according to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). The fourth BSE case, according to Reuters, involved a Holstein-Hereford dairy cow in Alberta, which is a source of feed for British Columbia livestock. See also: “Investigators also identified a feed ingredient supplier common to this case and Canada’s fourth BSE animal, confirmed on January 22, 2006,” the report continued. “This potential link suggests that all of Canada’s BSE cases fall within the same geographic cluster, which is reflective of feed sourcing, production, and distribution patterns.”
Given its age, the British Columbia cow was born after Canada in 1997 banned putting protein from cows and other ruminants into cattle feed. But the investigation, according to the CFIA, found high compliance with the ban. “Such findingswhich have been observed during other investigations and regular inspections of feed mills, renderers, and retailers across the countryconfirm the presence of limited opportunities for contamination during feed manufacture, transportation, storage, and use,” the CFIA said. The CFIA said it had identified 148 animals linked with the infected cow, including its herd mates and recent offspring. Of those, 22 live animals were located; all tested negative for BSE. One additional cow is pregnant and will be tested once it has calved. The CFIA examined records concerning feed to which the infected animal would have been exposed early in its life, when cattle are most likely to contract BSE. “While a specific source of infection was not found, investigators determined that vehicles and equipment used to ship and receive a variety of ingredients likely contaminated cattle feed with the BSE agent,” the agency said. Of the remaining cows, 77 had died or been slaughtered, 15 were exported to the United States, and 33 were untraceable, according to the news release. The US Department of Agriculture said in April it had found one of the animals exported to the United States and was looking for the 14 others.
