kumkum bhagya and matsh – SOULMATES FOREVER 11

thanks guys for support…
let’s get into the story…
Victor and Jenny dropped abhi and pragya at pragya’s house. Pragya was still asleep in abhi’s arms. He knocked on door and pragya’s mother came out. Though they were worried initially but abhi told them that she was fine but he didn’t told them that her drink was spiked.ishani and ranveer were getting worried about two and were relieved when they recieved call from pragya’s parents. Ranveer decided to drop ishani home as it was getting late.pragya was still in abhi’s arms and he went to her bedroom upstairs. It was cozy little girlish bedroom with two beds for pragya and ishani. Abhi laid pragya on one of the beds which he recognised to be of pragya by the pile of books lying nearby. She was totally opposite of him.He could easily identify ishu’s side because the right side was all messed up with clothes,books and many other things on floor. He spotted a stuffed bunny on ishani’s side and smirked.That girl was so childish.As he got up from her bed,he felt someone tugging him and realized that pragya was still clutching his jacket. He gently removed her hand pulled a blanket over her. Despite all the chaos he felt that this was his best prom night ever. Abhi had no option but to wait till ranveer arrived to drop ishani. Soon the two arrived and ishani thanked him and rushed towards her room.
Abhi : By the way nice bunny
Ishani (winks).ranveer laughed at ishani’s tomato red face and ishani rushed upstairs silently cursing abhi all the time.
Next day
Ishani went towards ranveer.
Ishani: So when are we practicing today?
Ranveer : Excuse me?
Ishani: We are dance partners. Remember?
Ranveer: We are but only when you concentrate on our project.
Ishani : I do.
RANVEER : Really? Tell me the name of book.
Ishani : Jungle book…no Twilight…no…
Ranveer: (Sarcastically) Harry Potter?
Ishani: Err…what about you?
Ranveer : I have decided we are going to work on – ‘and then there were none’ by Agatha Christie.
Ishani: Is this name of single book?
RANVEER : (Sighs) Yes of course and tomorrow i want you to come prepared with it. Otherwise be ready to lose the competition.With this he left a gaping ishani.
Ishani : What the…

Pragya and abhi were rehearsing for the play . Pragya was trying to talk to him but he was pretending as if she didn’t exist. They were rehearsing for their marriage scene.
Miss T : And now you have to kiss Kate.
Pragya : WHAT?
Miss T : Don’t worry dear he is not going to actually kiss you. You have to just pretend like that.abhi pulled pragya towards her and she unknowingly grabbed his collar.
Abhi : (Smirks) Kiss me Kate.He then bent forward and his face was inches apart from her face. Pragya’s heart started pounding loudly. She felt intoxicated by him. So she preferred to shut her eyes. Abhi slowly brought his lips close toher ears and whispered.
Abhi: Don’t worry i am not going to kiss you yet.pragya was shocked by this and stood still. To others it looked like as if they were in middle of a passionate kiss.

Miss T : Cut it.And the two stepped apart.
Miss T : Really sensual i must say and that’s all for today. You all may go back to your classes now.abhi quickly got down the auditorium stage and pragya followed him. She kept following himuntil he suddenly turned back.
Abhi : Why are you following me?
Pragya: I wanted to talk to you.
Abhi: (confused) Here?
Pragya : Yes.
Abhi : Do you realise it’s boys washroom pragya…
Pragya looked around horrified and stared wide eyes at abhi.
Abhi: (Smirks) I didn’t knew you were so obsessive about me.
Pragya : (Pulls him to side ) Can i talk to you for a minute?
Abhi : Okay.
Pragya: Thanks and sorry.
Abhi : For what?
PRAGYA : For dropping me home last night and sorry for ruining your prom night. By the way, what happened last night?
Abhi: Someone spiked your drink and…
Pragya: What?
Abhi: And i didn’t knew that you were that amazing.
Pragya: What do you mean?
Abhi : A boy and girl, all alone on a lonely road in a car and one hour.Draw your own conclusions (winks) Hanky panky….bruhh.He then went away and left a bewildered pragya behind. She was afraid if she had told him how she felt whenever he was near her. And how did it took them one whole hour to reach home? PRAGYA decided to work on Jhumpa Lahiri’s book – Unaccustomed Earth. It had a story which explored an aged father’s relation with his married daughter. So she decided to do a little survey of the old people who lived nearby.

Two days later abhi and pragya went for their survey though abhi was least bit interested. Finally they found their tenth and last home. Abhi knocked on door and an aged lady opened the door.She was none other than Mrs. Jenny – the lady who had given them lift few days back.abhi was beyond shocked to see her. Then he remembered whatever stuff he had told with her but that time pragya was asleep and now she was standing right beside him.To say he was in trouble would be an understatement.Jenny too immediately recognised them.Jenny : Come inside son!! What a pleasant surprise.
Pragya : You know them?
Abhi : Yes we met them on our way back from prom.
Jenny : How are you pragya? Don’t stand. Please make yourself comfortable.
Pragya : Nothing, actually…
Jenny : Why nothing? You shouldn’t stay hungry during this time.She then went to kitchen and abhi saw it as right time to talk to pragya..
Pragya : How did she know my name?abhi: I told her …pragya listen,let me do the talking here
Pragya : Why are you suddenly so interested in our project?Jenny came back with puddings andgave one to pragya.
Jenny : Here, vanilla one for you dear.
Pragya : Thanks.
Jenny : (Gushes) This will make your baby even more fair.
Pragya : Fair? (Turns towards abhi) baby?
Jenny : Don’t look at him like that. One can’t hide such things from me.
Pragya: But…
Abhi : (Cutting in between) So Mrs.Jenny we are here for our survey . Will you please answer a few question?
Jenny : Sure son.Jenny started answering all the questions and pragya kept staring suspiciously at abhi but he preferred not to look at her. Pragya knew something was wrong because he seemed to be flustered. Abhi was relieved when the survey completed and they were about to go.
Jenny : (to pragya) Take care and what do you want – blue or pink?
Pragya : Err…what blue or pink?
Abhi : (Shouts) Pink!!! She likes pink (to pragya ) Isn’t it…pragya understood there was surely something fishy and now she was determined to find it.
ABHISHEK never smiled so sweetly at anyone.
Pragya : Sorry i wasn’t able to recognize you .
Jenny : You were very pale that day and i must say you are very beautiful and your baby will be too
Pragya: BABY!??Jenny: (Looks astonishingly at abhi ) Yes baby.
Abhi: (Slightly presses Madhu’s hand and pleads her with eyes to stay silent) Yes, our baby.
Pragya : (with deadly clam voice) ABHISHEK !!!!

hope you all liked…please leave your comments. …

Ravi Teja’s dual role in Kick-2!

Posted : August 23, 2014 at 9:39 pm IST by ManaTelugu

Couple of days ago, Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja had kick-started his Kick-2. The film is not a sequel to Kick but is a new story in the Kick series. The movie unit says Kick-2 is the story of the son of Ravi Teja and Ileana couple from Kick. Surender Reddy reportedly is in two minds regarding the dual role. One way is to show Ravi Teja as a little older guy in the father role.

And the second role is to totally eliminate Ravi Teja’s old character and finish off the formalities with an introduction voice over that the current hero is the son of Ravi Teja and Ileana couple showing some shots from Kick. Ravi Teja’s fans will want to see that actor in the dual role. The movie unit says Kick-2 is also an action comedy like Kick. However, the content in this film will be even more interesting with several twists and turns they say.

Milky Beauty Tamannah is said to be the female lead in the film. Kick-2 brings the successful Kick combination of Ravi Teja and Surender Reddy back on screen. Nandamuri Kalyan Ram is producing the film on his NTR Arts banner. Thaman will be scoring music for this out and out entertainer. Vakkantham Vamsi had penned the story of Kick-2 just like Kick.

Bollywood will be eagerly watching the proceedings of Kick-2 as Kick was remade in Bollywood with Salman Khan in the lead role. The installment of the Kick series may go there again if its is successful here.

historic rankings and the histories for all other players in the system.

Sophomore Year (Sep 2016 - Aug 2017)
Sample Chart
  Recruiting List Percentile
  TennisRPI Percentile

What is a percentile?

Your percentile is a value between 1 and 100 that indicates the percentage of players ranked below you. For instance, if you are ranked higher than 70% of all players, then you would be in the 70th percentile.

Why do you chart the percentile instead of the rank?

The number of ranked players in the TennisRecruiting.net lists changes from week to week, and the differences can be dramatic over long periods of time. For example, there may be only 500 players ranked before the busy summer season - and 1000 players ranked at the end. With these changes, your ranking may change significantly over long periods of time - and these changes are not necessarily correlated with your performance.

We have found that percentile does not fluctuate as widely as the raw rankings and better correlates with performance. Using percentiles makes the historical ranking charts more meaningful.

Why does the chart start at the 50th percentile?

The pool of players considered is much bigger than the players that we rank. Just meeting the eligibility requirements of our lists in terms of wins is an accomplishment. Since more than 50% of the players are ineligible across all classes, we decided to show from 50 to 100.

Product information

Twenty year old tawny Port

Google targets content farms with major algorithm change

  • Google's made a major change to its search algorithm, designed to deliver higher-quality results, which it says will noticeably affect nearly 12 percent of queries.

    The move seems designed to weed out so-called 'content farms'  which use search engine optimization techniques to push their sites to the top of the Google rankings. Many such sites have no original content at all - indeed, some stories have almost no content, consisting of just a couple of sentences. Nevertheless, they can perform well in searches.

    "This update is designed to reduce rankings for low-quality sites — sites which are low-value add for users, copy content from other websites or sites that are just not very useful," say Amit Singhal, Google fellow, and Matt Cutts, principal engineer.

    "At the same time, it will provide better rankings for high-quality sites — sites with original content and information such as research, in-depth reports, thoughtful analysis and so on."

    While Google's algorithm is tweaked on a daily basis, most changes are more or less undetectable. This one, however, will see about one in eight queries affected.

    The changes were heralded by an announcement from Google a month ago that it planned to try and cut down on the amount of spam in search results.

    And last week it launched the Personal Blocklist Chrome extension, which lets users block sites which they've found to be useless.

    Singhal and Cutts say that today's algorithm change does not rely on feedback from the Personal Blocklist - vitally important, as including that data would make it possible for people to game the results through yet more search engine optimization.

    But, it says, the blocklist has proved a good way of checking whether the new algorithm is performing as planned.

    "we did compare the Blocklist data we gathered with the sites identified by our algorithm, and we were very pleased that the preferences our users expressed by using the extension are well represented," they say.

    "If you take the top several dozen or so most-blocked domains from the Chrome extension, then this algorithmic change addresses 84 percent of them, which is strong independent confirmation of the user benefits."

    Demand Media - widely regarded as just the sort of content fam Google is trying to eliminate - says it's not worried about the changes.

    " It’s impossible to speculate how these or any changes made by Google impact any online business in the long term – but at this point in time, we haven’t seen a material net impact on our Content & Media business," says
    Larry Fitzgibbon, Demand's EVP of media and operations.

    The changes hit the US today, with the rest of the world to follow over the coming weeks; and Google says there's more to come.

Indian publishing major to provide customised e-content

February 20th, 2008 - 7:19 pm ICT by admin

New Delhi, Feb 20 (IANS) Publishing house MBD group will invest Rs.1 billion ($25 million) within the next three years to develop customised educational e-contents for schools, corporate houses and those preparing for competitive examinations. “Cyberspace is the new gateway for delivering education and our effort is to capture it to push our educational contents,” Monica Malhotra Kandhari, senior director of MBD group, said Wednesday.

“We have already invested nearly Rs.300 million in the last eight months and would invest an additional Rs.1 billion within the next three years. From a product-based company, we are reinventing ourselves as a service company,” Kandhari told IANS.

The company will create customised services for “well-defined verticals” such as content business, technology in education, teacher training modules, campus solutions, retail and technology services among others.

E-learning is considered to be the future in delivering content. According to an estimate, the e-learning market was about $7 billion in 2004 and is expected to touch $28 billion by the end of the current year.

A.K. Malhotra, managing director of the Rs.10-billion MBD group said that the new initiative would function under the banner of MBD Alchemie.

“It endeavours to become India’s mass education offering gateway through dissemination of high quality standardised content across the country. We are spreading our wings as the complete content service provider,” Kandhari said.

He said the content would be provided through an interactive web portal. “It will be a knowledge portal but will be excellent on its user interface, navigation and high level of interactivity.”

He said IBM would provide technology support.

“In future IBM will also promote MBD Alchemie services both in India and abroad through our huge network,” said Ramesh Narasimhan of IBM.

Kandhari said students, executives and those preparing for competitive exams could log in and register their name. They could avail services round the clock as per their requirement and convenience.

“Our students can ask questions directly to an expert, interact with teachers and take part in a mock test to hone their skill and capability,” Kandhari said.

Arjun Mathur’s hat-trick with Shah Rukh Khan

April 2nd, 2009 - 12:09 pm ICT by Sampurn Wire

Arjun Mathur's hat-trick with Shah Rukh Khan Arjun Mathur who made a mark with his recent releases Luck By Chance and Barah Aana is working with Shah Rukh Khan in My Name is Khan. But this is not the first time the newcomer has got in the same frame with the superstar. In fact Arjun’s managed a hat-trick working with the King Khan so early in his career.

Arjun states, “I have worked with Shah Rukh Khan before as well as I have done a TV commercial with him and there was also that important scene during the pre-climax of Luck By Chance. I think SRK is just amazing. He oozes energy and ease. He is so polite and a lovely human being to be with. It feels great to work with him as I have grown up admiring him. I remember watching the combination and magic of SRK, Kajol and Karan Johar in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. This combination fuelled my desire to make it big. You know when I first went on sets of My Name Is Khan in which I play a student activist, I behaved like an 18-year old between them, as I was 18 when KKHH released. I must admit it has been a dream come true working with them, especially SRK.”

Gazza in denial about his mental health

May 27th, 2008 - 2:24 pm ICT by admin

London, May 27 (ANI): Troubled former England football star Paul Gazza Gascoigne is in denial about his mental health problems and is trying to fix other rehab patients problems.
According to The Sun, the tormented England idol has been holding consultations with fellow patients at The Priory clinic because hes desperate to help them.
Gazza checked into rehab in London on Saturday after another bout of bizarre behaviour at a plush hotel. Staff called in police when they found the former Spurs midfielder mumbling incoherently and spinning in circles.
He will spend his 41st birthday today under the watchful eye of medics.
Alcoholic Gazza has been showering other people in the centre with gifts and holding one-to-one sessions to talk through their issues, sources said.
Medics believe he is in denial about his own condition and want him to concentrate on getting better.
The former Newcastle, Rangers, Everton and Lazio star has been warned by medics he must turn his boozy life around within weeks. In February, depressed Gazza spent three weeks in a mental hospital after suffering a breakdown.
Police detained the former England player under the Mental Health Act.
Liver expert Dr Rajiv Jalan, of University College, London, believes the former footballer could become a role model. (ANI)

Researchers discover gene behind cleft lip and palate

April 24th, 2008 - 1:44 pm ICT by admin

Washington , Apr 24 (ANI): Scientists at Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM) have discovered a gene, called TFAP2A (Activating Enhancer-Binding Protein), that causes distinctive clefting disorder Branchio-Oculo-Facial syndrome (BOFS), characterized by frequent cleft lip and palate.

The team discovered that deletions or mutations within the TFAP2A gene cause distinctive clefting disorder Branchio-Oculo-Facial syndrome (BOFS), characterised by specific skin anomalies involving the neck and behind the ear, eye abnormalities, a typical facial appearance, and frequently cleft lip and palate.

In the study, led by Jeff Milunsky, MD, director of clinical genetics, associate director of the Center for Human Genetics, and an associate professor of pediatrics, genetics and genomics at BUSM, the researchers made use of the latest in molecular microarray technologies.

Using this, they examined one affected mother and son and two sporadic BOFS cases and found a small deletion on chromosome 6 in the mother and son.

After sequencing the genes in this candidate region, it was revealed that missense mutations accumulated in a particular region of the DNA-binding region of the TFAP2A gene in 4 sporadic BOFS patients.

Milunsky said that this discovery would lead to more precise diagnostic testing, enable prenatal diagnosis, suggest directions for new research, and facilitate genetic counseling in these families.

This gene is a well-known transcription factor involved in multiple developmental pathways as well as tumorigenesis. An intriguing finding is that one of the affected patients with a mutation also has brain cancer, highlighting again the connection between malformations and cancer, he added.

He hopes that this discovery will have significant wide-ranging implications as this gene may also play a role in the more common isolated occurrence of cleft lip and palate.

The study currently appears on-line in a recent issue of the American Journal of Human Genetics. (ANI)

Terror-stunned Assam prays for peace on Bihu

January 14th, 2009 - 11:10 am ICT by IANS

Guwahati, Jan 14 (IANS) As Pankaj Choudhury, a 27-year-old Guwahati based entrepreneur, celebrates Bhogali Bihu here Wednesday it is not feasting and enjoyment that is on his mind to mark the first festival of the year. But it is peace in his trouble-torn state that he is yearning for.And Pankaj is not the only one who feels this way. Many people in Assam that has already suffered two bomb blasts in the first few days of 2009 are desperately seeking peace in the state.

Three coordinated bomb blasts hit Guwahati, Assam’s main city, on Jan 1 followed by a blast again on Jan 9. A total of nine people were killed and many injured, several of whom are still recuperating in hospitals.

On Oct 30 last year, 81 people were killed and over 300 injured when 12 coordinated blasts rocked Guwahati and the western districts of Barpeta, Kokrajhar and Bongaigaon.

Bhogali Bihu, akin to Makar Sankranti that is celebrated in many parts of the country, marks the end of the harvesting season. With the granaries full, the festival is marked by a lot of feasting.

A despondent Pankaj told IANS: “Bhogali bihu is all about feasting, meeting friends and relatives and merry-making. But Assam has turned into a terror hub. Every other day there is a bomb blast. No one is safe here. We want peace and an end to the three long decades of insurgency in Assam.”

Echoing his sentiments, national award winning Assamese singer Tarali Sarma told IANS that all Assam needs is peace and prosperity.

“Celebrating festivals holds no meaning if every other day a bomb blast greets us. We are all scared. We want security and peace and then only we can think about merry-making and enjoyment. As Bihu is a traditional festival, we are observing it, but in a sombre manner,” said Sarma.

“First bring back peace to Assam, then only will we be able to think about fun and festivities. Death and destruction have marred the very growth of the state. I want the government to ensure the security of the civilians,” said poet Shiva Prasad Bora, who is based in Baithalangso in Karbi Anglong district of the state.

The sense of hopelessness among the people is
palpable as the usual enthusiasm of the festival is missing in the market places in the state.

“The enthusiasm to celebrate the festival is missing this time. Usually Bihu season brings huge profits to business houses across the state. But terror has killed the celebratory mood this time,” said M. Jalan, owner of Sohum Shoppe, a chain of malls in Guwahati.

On Bhogali Bihu, which comes from the Assamese word bhog that means eating and enjoyment, people across Assam celebrate by feasting on various traditional delicacies and merry-making.

Some of the mouth watering delicacies served during Bihu includes, rice cakes like Til Pitha, Ghila Pitha, Xutuli Pitha, Sunga Pitha and Tekeli Pitha, sweet snacks like Tilor Laru, Narikolor Laru and rice-based snacks Bora saul, Komal Saul, Chira, Muri and Akhoi served with Doi (curd) and Gur (jaggery).

The day before Bhogali Bihu is called Uruka, which is marked by community feasting in makeshift cottages called Bhelaghar.

On Bihu day, early in the morning family members and friends gather near the Meji - a traditional V shaped structure made out of hay from the harvested fields, and burn it and offer their prayers to the fire to mark the end of the harvesting season. Several traditional games like buffalo-fight and cock-fight are organised in villages during the day.

However, with the passage of time, many a traditional aspect related to Bihu has taken a backseat.

“We hope this Bihu will bring much-needed peace in Assam,” said national award winner filmmaker Gautam Bora.

Pakistani film ‘Khuda Ke Liye’ released in India

April 4th, 2008 - 6:03 pm ICT by admin

Mumbai, Apr 4 (ANI): The Pakistan film ‘Khuda Ke Liye’ (In The Name of God) was released in India on Friday.
“This is a very happy occasion that after about 40-45 years a Pakistani film is being officially released in India. The filmmakers here in Indian film industry, the audiences, everybody is happy,” said Javed Shaikh, Pakistani actor.
The film generated an overwhelming response from its audience who felt that more and more such films should be made.
“It is a very good movie and more films like this should be made. It is a very good bond between the two countries,” said Madhur Bhandarkar, a Bollywood director.
The film weaves together three stories — of a pop singer who comes under the influence of Islamic extremists, a Briton of Pakistani origin who is forcibly married to her cousin and a man illegally detained in the U.S. after the 9/11 attacks.
The film features Indian actor Naseeruddin Shah in a cameo as a Muslim scholar clarifying the tenets of Islam during a court case.
Shah termed the film as an answer to the West, which has labelled the Muslim community as terrorists, so much so that terrorism has become synonymous with the community.
“It’s been long that terrorism has been linked with Muslims. It has become synonymous with the community. It was high time that an answer to this was given to the West. That is the only reason that this film has mostly been made in English to cater to the western audiences. I think Shoaib Mansoor (Director) himself must not have thought that the film would generate such a good response in Pakistan,” he said.
Pakistan’s film industry has been starved of a natural audience in India due to political differences and the dominance of Bollywood.
But the success of ‘Khuda Ke Liye’ since its release in Pakistan in July last year may be a sign that Pakistani cinema is finally coming of age.
The film recieved a standing ovation at the International Film Festival of India last year. (ANI)

2011 World Cup shift will cost PCB 10.5 million dollars

April 18th, 2009 - 5:41 pm ICT by ANI

Karachi, Apr.18 (ANI): With the International Cricket Council (ICC) deciding to shift the 2011 cricket World Cup matches from Pakistan, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is set to suffer a whopping 10.5 million dollar loss.

“We lose out on earning the hosting fees of the matches. The ICC pay out the host country 750,000 dollars for each match,” PCB’s Chief Operating Officer Saleem Altaf said.

Altaf said the loss could be much more than what has been estimated.

He added that the board has already suffered huge financial set backs due to the cancellation of Australian and Indian tour.

The eight nation Champions Trophy was also shifted from the country by the ICC in the wake of precarious conditions.

Officials of the PCB marketing department estimated that the overall loss could be around 40 million dollars, The News reported. (ANI)

I am "honoured and privileged": Rahul Dravid

   Facebook Twitter Google+    Comments Mail

Sydney:Rahul Dravid said he was "honoured and privileged" to be named India's new cricket captain, ending Sourav Ganguly's five-year reign as the country's most successful skipper.

The selection committee in Mohali on Thursday named Dravid, 32, captain for a series of seven limited-overs internationals against Sri Lanka and five one-dayers against South Africa at home from October 25 to November 28.

"It is an honour and a privilege to have been named as captain of India for the next two series," Dravid said after playing for the World XI on the opening day of the Super Test against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground Friday.

"We will be playing against two great teams, and I am very much looking forward to the challenges that both series will present."

Dravid said he was informed of his appointment by Indian cricket board secretary Karunakaran Nair and the chairman of selectors Kiran More during the tea interval at the SCG.

"As it was during a game it was quite a brief conversation in which they congratulated me on my appointment. The chairman of selectors mentioned that there had been some encouraging signs during the recently concluded Challenger Trophy.

"I look forward to returning to India and meeting up with the coach, selectors and other players to make plans for the matches that are ahead of us."

Dravid's elevation to the top job was widely predicted in the Indian media as Ganguly struggled with injury, poor batting form and a damaging spat with coach Greg Chappell.

Ganguly, whose 21 Test and 76 one-day wins as captain are an Indian record, missed the recent domestic one-day trial matches here due to a tennis elbow injury.

With India also due to play Test series against Sri Lanka, Pakistan, England and the West Indies in a gruelling schedule till July, the selectors clearly did not want to take chances with an uncertain Ganguly at the helm.

Dravid, a prolific top-order batsman and longtime deputy to Ganguly, led India in five Tests and 17 one-dayers in the captain's absence, with mixed results.

Under Dravid, India won and lost two Tests each against Australia and Pakistan last season, while the fifth against New Zealand was drawn.

In 17 one-dayers as captain, Dravid won seven matches and lost nine, while one was rained off.

Canadian hog exports increasing

Published: January 4, 2005 12:00 AM

A report released last month by the USDA's Economic Research Service spotlighted the changing nature of hog exports in North America.During the past 15 years, according to "Market Integration in the North American Hog Industries" written by Mildred M. Haley, hog exports from Canada have increased eight-fold "in response to significant structural changes in the U.S. hog industry, concurrent with policy changes in Canada."This, combined with a strong U.S./Canadian dollar exchange rate, an open border, and pronounced Canadian breeding herd efficiencies created incentives to expand Canadian hog operations."According to the report, about 8 percent of the 100 million hogs slaughtered in the United States this year will come from Canada. "In 1989, just 16 percent of imported Canadian hogs were feeder pigs (young pigs weighing between 10 and 60 pounds), versus close to 65 percent of hog imports in 2004."Also of note, according to the report: "It is more accurate to talk about a North American pork industry, in which significant numbers of low-cost feeder pigs are produced in Canada, exported to U.S. Corn Belt States for finishing on low-cost U.S. corn and soybean meal, and then slaughtered in large, highly efficient U.S. processing facilities." "The U.S. pork industry has undergone significant restructuring in the last 20 years, resulting in packer/processor demand for hogs in excess of U.S. supply. There are now fewer, often very large operations that specialize in one stage of hog production, rather than many smaller operations in Corn Belt States (which often followed the complete production process, from breeding and birth of pigs to feeding hogs to slaughter weight)."Syrup timeOhio State University Extension will play host to a maple syrup program in Wooster on Jan. 21 featuring a trade show, industry news and presentations on products and production.Topics to be discussed, according to an OSU release, include: "What's Bugging Ohio's Sugarbushes and Forests?" (A look at common insect pests by Dan Balser of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources' Forest Health Program.) "What Does the Ohio Maple Industry Look Like?" (Findings of a recent survey presented by Gary Graham, natural-resources specialist at the OSU Extension Center at Wooster.) And "From Yuck to Yum!" (Identifying off flavors in maple syrup and how to cure them by Randy Heiligmann, OSU Extension state forestry specialist, and Graham.)The Wayne County session will run from 8:30 a.m.-4 p.m. at the Mennonite Christian Assembly Church, 10664 Fryburg Road, south of Fredericksburg.

Letter: Decker showed commitment to city parks

Published: August 9, 2014 4:00 AM

As an almost daily user of Oak Hill Park and a longtime member of the Friends of Wooster Memorial Park, I was concerned when I read about the resignation of Daryl Decker from his position as Public Properties Manager for the City of Wooster.

Decker's enthusiasm for and commitment to these two parks has been an enormous contribution to our community. Oak Hill Park provides citizens with a unique location that provides space for many recreational activities such as walking, cross-country skiing, dog-walking, sledding, running and biking, on land that is wonderfully open and has more gentle terrain that complements Wooster Memorial Park. This enables citizens of all ages and abilities to use it for a variety of purposes.

This developing park with its old field vegetation, new trees and prairie wildflower plantings, also offers many educational opportunities for school and college faculty, as well as local bird watchers and other citizen scientists. These educational possibilities were included in the Ohio Public Works Commission Clean Ohio grant used for the acquisition of the property.

Decker was an essential part of the grant writing and submission process and perhaps more importantly, of the subsequent organization and management of the activities that have resulted in the asset that the many users of the park enjoy today. These activities included organizing a College of Wooster freshman class who helped the late Don Beam and family landscape the area by planting 7,000 native Ohio prairie plants as part of their orientation week.

[Article continues below]

Decker's vision for both Wooster Memorial and Oak Hill parks and his willingness and ability to work with Wooster area inhabitants -- many of whom are professional scientists -- on the development of Wooster's unique natural areas has resulted in parks that future generations of Wooster citizens can enjoy and of which they can be truly proud.

Like many others, I have both enjoyed and benefited from my association with Decker and hope that whoever is hired as his replacement will continue his tradition as a champion for our community's beautiful parks.

Yea like the day I was at Oak Hill Park, 4 summer employees were trying to hook up a sprinkle to water some grass..........yes 4.   2 to hold the hose, 1 to attach the sprinkler and 1 to watch.  Then they went to the pavillion sat down and watched the grass being watered.  They just sat there for the next hour playing on their cell phones.   City dollars well spent.

Live cricket commentary: Australia v Sri Lanka - day two, SCG

Join us for comprehensive live blog coverage of the first Test between Australia and Sri Lanka from Sydney. Michael Chammas is in the commentary chair on day two.null

How yesterday's play was summed up.

STUMPS SCORE: Sri Lanka 294 (Thirimanne 91, Jayawardene 72, Bird 4/41, Starc 3/71)

WHAT HAPPENED: Australia won the toss and eventually bowled Sri Lanka out with only a few balls remaining in the day’s play. Jackson Bird and Mitchell Starc took seven wickets between them. Bird produced his best Test figures to date by bowling a series of excellent spells, Starc’s three wickets came from excellent deliveries. Sri Lanka were best served by their emergency replacement Lahiru Thirimanne who got off to a shaky start but gradually built his innings before throwing his wicket away on 91. The skipper Mahela Jayawardene also chimed in with 72, but there was nothing spectacular from the rest of the line-up.

WHAT IT MEANS: Australian captain Michael Clarke when he sent Sri Lanka in would have hoped to dismiss visitors out well before stumps but chasing a first innings total of 294 still provides his batsmen with an opportunity to set up a winning total. The Australians will need to make the most of a good wicket tomorrow and possibly Saturday as there could be variable bounce as the match goes on.null

Mixed bag for housing market

HOUSE prices are up in Turners Beach, Devonport, Port Sorell and Latrobe, but down in Smithton, Somerset and Wynyard.

The median house price at Port Sorell rose 23.5 per cent in two years to $284,000, after nine sales in the December quarter last year, a report from the Real Estate Institute of Tasmania says.

Rosebery had Tasmania's most affordable houses for the quarter, with a median of just $43,000.

There were no house sales at Strahan.

In the Devonport municipality, 63houses were sold in the December quarter.

Collins Real Estate agent Leigh Jordan confirmed the market was picking up in Devonport.

REIT president Adrian Kelly said the quarter was a good final result for the year.

None of the Cradle Coast's nine council areas had a median house price that matched the state median.

There was an increase in first home buyers for the December quarter, accounting for 18 per cent of house sales across the state, with a median purchase house price of $265,000.

Prices of other properties were down or flat in all council areas across the Cradle Coast, excluding Waratah-Wynyard, where prices were 5 per cent higher than two years ago at $210,000.

ICAC tensions spill onto the street as associates of Chris Hartcher allegedly attack reporters

Tensions inside a corruption inquiry have spilled out onto the street as associates of former Liberal state energy minister Chris Hartcher allegedly assaulted reporters after he left the witness box on Monday afternoon.

The dramatic scenes in the lift and outside the Independent Commission Against Corruption building in Sydney come after Mr Hartcher locked horns with the barrister leading the inquiry inside the hearing room.

Channel 7's state political reporter Lee Jeloscek was repeatedly kicked in the shins by a man understood to be Mr Hartcher's son.

This occurred as Mr Hartcher tried to avoid the media by weaving through a series of shops within Sydney's CBD.

Two other reporters were shoved in the lift inside the ICAC building.

The former energy minister and the two young men finally jumped into a cab at Martin Place.

Mr Hartcher, the alleged "mastermind" of schemes to channel tens of thousands of dollars in illegal donations to the Liberal Party, started giving evidence shortly before midday at the ICAC.

He said he could not recall "laundering" $4000 in Liberal Party cheques through his old law firm, Hartcher Reid, and directing the money be paid to Micky Tech, a company run by the partner of his long-term aide Ray Carter.

"I have already explained to you now on seven occasions that I don't recall," Mr Hartcher snapped.

Mr Watson interrupted with, "Do it again."

Mr Hartcher said Mr Carter's evidence that Mr Hartcher asked him to give him the money was "wrong" but stopped short of calling him a liar.

"I want you to know what I will be putting, Mr Hartcher ... you pocketed that $4000," said Mr Watson.

"I reject that absolutely!" said Mr Hartcher angrily.

When Mr Watson repeated the allegation, Mr Hartcher shouted, "I resent that!"

"Don't you DARE tell me that you resent anything!" Mr Watson shouted in return.

As the pair continued yelling at each other, Alister Henskens, SC, for Mr Hartcher, added to the mayhem by shouting "I object!" over the top.

Commissioner Megan Latham was forced to intervene.

"Can we all back off right now ... I don't want things to degenerate into a screaming match," she said.

"They are both setting each other off and they need to take a backwards step."

Mr Watson then started afresh by suggesting calmly that Mr Hartcher had instructed Mr Carter to give false testimony to the commission and that he used his nephew, a solicitor at Hartcher Reid, to launder money.

After Mr Henskens objected once again to the use of the word "launder", which he said "had a particular meaning within the Crimes Act", Mr Watson stated: "I want to make it clear. I am putting that Mr Hartcher laundered the money through Hartcher Reid."

This was a "rolled up, emotive, sensational, media grabbing proposition", Mr Henskens responded.

The ICAC is investigating allegations that Mr Hartcher was involved in a number of schemes to "wash" illegal donations to the Liberal Party before the last state election.

One was an alleged "sham company" called Eightbyfive, which the inquiry has heard billed property developers and other companies for fake services to disguise the fact they were making illegal donations.

The company was set up by Mr Hartcher's former adviser, Tim Koelma.

Mr Hartcher, the member for Terrigal, has denied he was involved in the schemes.

Mr Hartcher is the last witness to give evidence before Operation Spicer adjourns until August 4 to give investigators time to examine new evidence implicating former police minister Mike Gallacher in "serious electoral funding irregularities".

Im not sure, but if its your left foot in plaster, I dont see as it makes any difference, as you would only be using your right foot to drive it anyway.
The offence would be one of driving in such a position that you do not have proper control of the vehicle. Even in 21st century Britain, it would be impossible to fit that charge to a foot that you don't use for driving. Assuming of course that your plaster cast does not get in the way of the footbrake etc.

The DVLA has no specific guidelines regarding driving with a plaster cast, however you should contact your insurance company as their Ts&Cs usually state that their position may depend upon medical advice from your doctor.

i don't think it's illegal but check with your insurers as they may have other ideas, especially if you have an accident. they will always look for a way not to pay out.
what happened if you had a nasty accident and had to exit the vehicle quickly to safety?????

Think about it. Legal or not, I would not drive.
Don't really buy that logic spaced.

Would you suggest that disabled people do not drive in case they have a nasty accident and can't get out quickly enough?

We're not talking formula one here!
jake, you are comparing apples with kiwis mate. Firstly I work in the sector with immobile people, they are immobile for life so have no option. As Busymum has only to wait weeks befroe she is fully mobile, why take the risk?
Simple answer to your question.

Oops. Just re read the question. I meant no it is not illegal
someone I used to work with only had one leg (the right) - the left amputated below the knee, and he did not use a prosthetic limb. He drove around in an ordinary automatic car. So I'm sure you would be fine to drive - but I would check with your insurance company just to be 100% sure.

Have a Canon Pixma MP610 and the last couple of times I've tried to use it, I get a message saying "Printer is offline" although it is switched on, so I have re-booted the PC (XP SP3) and then all is fine. Would it be advisable to re-install the software, or update the drivers. If the latter, can someone give me a layman's procedure for doing this please ? Many thanks

in The Comedy of Errors

Viva Las Vegas -- or, at least, a semblance thereof. Director Bill Rauch opens the Oregon Shakespeare Festival's 2004 season with his interpretation of Shakespeare's The Comedy of Errors, set in the early 1960s in a very Vegas-like city. The original setting of the play is the town of Ephesus, where Antipholus and Dromio from Syracuse alight and are mistaken for their identical twin brothers, also named Antipholus and Dromio.

"We were very interested in the differences between Ephesus and the offstage world of Syracuse," says Rauch. "From the Syracusans, the strangers, there's a strong response to the community in terms of how it's ruled by money and how much sin they perceive. We took our cue from that and thought about how we could create a community that would be overwhelming to these two guys. The Vegas influence just made a lot of sense."

In addition to the updated setting, Rauch has secured permission from the Rodgers & Hammerstein Organization to incorporate the song "Falling in Love with Love" from the Rodgers and Hart tuner The Boys From Syracuse -- which is, of course, a musical adaptation of The Comedy of Errors. "There are four different casinos that we hit over the course of the show," says Rauch. "A singer appears in all four, singing the same song, but each appearance is thematically specific to the casino she's in. The first has a general gambling scene but the following casino has a Roman scene, the next a tropical scene, and then an Arabian scene."

Rauch is best known for his work with the Cornerstone Theatre, a community-based ensemble that often works with different populations of non-theater artists to create work that is relevant to a specific local community. "The way I look at the world and the way I look at a play is so influenced by my experiences with Cornerstone," Rauch avers. "So, when I pick up The Comedy of Errors, I see two sets of twins that look exactly alike but were raised in different cultures, and I ask how we can get as specific as possible about what those two different cultures are."

One way that he manages this is through the use of regional dialects. "One set of twins speaks with a very strong Southern accent and the other set with a contemporary East Coast dialect," says Rauch. However, the director is careful not to play into stereotypes: "Just when somebody comes on strong with the dialect and you think you know everything about him, he'll turn around and have this gorgeous speech that reveals a different part of his identity. Your jaw drops because it is so multi-dimensional."

In Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn, Huck and his friend Jim, an escaped slave, travel down the Mississippi en route to Cairo, Illinois -- the last stop on the Underground Railroad. However, due to a thick fog that engulfs the travelers, they end up missing their destination. This is the situation invoked by the title of Knowing Cairo, a play by Andrea Stolowitz that's currently running at the Victory Gardens Studio Theater in Chicago in a production from the Rivendell Theatre Ensemble.

"It's the idea of floating right past the very thing that you need or the very thing that will save you," says the show's director, Kimberly Senior. "All of the characters in the play are dealing with that."

Knowing Cairo centers on three women: a German-Jewish senior named Rose, her adult daughter Lydia, and an African-American caretaker named Winsome, whom Lydia hires to take care of her mother. "It deals with really emotional things in an unsentimental way," Senior states. "All of the characters make mistakes; they make good and bad choices. Different people are on different characters' sides when watching the play. It really engages the audience in regard to who's right and who's wrong, the ethical dilemma of it."

Rivendell's production marks the play's second mounting, following its world premiere at San Diego's Old Globe Theater in 2003. Senior has kept close contact with Stolowitz, who has made some minimal changes and adjustments for the Chicago production. The director loves to work directly with playwrights whenever possible and says that she's committed to bringing the writer's vision to the stage as opposed to her own concept of a play.

"I feel that theater today is moving in a direction similar to the concept of the turn-of-the-century European director as auteur, where the director is actually the conceiver of the piece," she states. "I, on the other hand, am moving away from that. I tend to be attracted to plays that don't need any conceptual rendering on my part. My productions are about telling the playwright's story as clearly and dramatically as possible."

"While I was working as a nanny, one of my co-workers in the household said I should write a play about her," says Kirsten Greenidge. "Many people say this, but in her case, she was right. Her story got me thinking about what happens when the promise of America is broken."

The result is Sans-culottes in the Promised Land, receiving its world premiere in Louisville as part of the Humana Festival of New American Plays. The title references the working class revolutionary movement in 18th-century France. "In college, I was a history major," Greenidge explains. "When I decided to write a play about a nanny in Newton [just outside of Boston], where they are plentiful and often necessary for working class families to run smoothly, I began to try to relate the tenor of the Sans-culottes' existence to that of a specific set of working people in a wealthy area of the country. The Sans-culottes in my play all desperately need the structure of our society to change. The title is ironic; if America is indeed the Promised Land, Sans-culottes should not exist at all."

Although Greenidge hesitates to call herself a political playwright, she acknowledges that the issues she often writes about are politically inflected. "One of the reasons I write is because I like to examine situations through a historical lens," she states. "I like to ask, 'What are the historical forces that surround this story or this character or this image?' Since politics and history are linked, I would say that my work often has a political tenor to it."

Sans-culottes in the Promised Land is not autobiographical but Greenidge has drawn liberally from her own experiences in penning the script. "One of my charges used to say, 'Kirsten, if you want to write about our family, feel free to take anything you want,'" the playwright relates. "While I cannot say that this is the story of the family I worked for, I can say that while sitting in thousands of carpool lanes, waiting inside countless violin, horseback riding, dance, and art lessons, and doing an average of 12 loads of laundry a week while cooking dinner and helping with homework, I gave a lot of thought to the nanny question."

This article is from the archive of our partner .

When former FEMA director Michael Brown insinuated on "Your World" that the Obama administration had deliberately caused the Gulf of Mexico oil spill to justify abandoning offshore drilling plans, host Neil Cavuto did not rebuke Brown's ludicrous claim. He also did not condone it. But the Fox News host's silence irked White House press secretary Robert Gibbs, who chastised Cavuto at his daily briefing.

Gibbs's angry response came when Fox correspondent Wendell Goler asked him to comment on stories playing up the idea that the oil spill is "Obama's Katrina." He said of the Brown interview:

Mr. Brown intimated on Fox--and it wasn't, I will editorially say, appear to be pushed back on real hard-- that this spill was leaked on purpose for us to walk back our environmental and drilling decisions. [...] I've got to tell you ... I'm not entirely sure a factual answer that I might give to any one of your questions is going to change the notion that your network put out the former FEMA director to make an accusation that the well had been purposefully been set off in order to change an offshore drilling direction.

Cavuto quickly struck back. After witheringly analyzing the entirety of Gibbs's press conference, Cavuto said his contentions were "laughable" before offering Fox's side of the story.

Here's what is not [laughable]: dismissing what Mr. Brown did say, about a president who might have botched a lot since that Gulf spill. Just as Mr. Brown argued the last president, his boss, did in the immediate aftermath of that Gulf hurricane.

Mr. Brown says he has become an expert -- an expert on botched responses. So that is why I had him on. Robert Gibbs seems to have done the same for botched White House pressers. That is why I invite him on. So whenever you want, Robert, come on. We'd love to have you.

NHTSA Investigates Stalling SUV's And Air Bag Malfunctions

DETROIT, Jan 14, 2003; Reuters reported that U.S. auto safety regulators have opened an investigation into 150,000 General Motors Corp. <GM.N> sport utility vehicles after 36 reports of engines stalling without warning.

The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said the complaints involve 2002 GMC Envoys and 2002 Oldsmobile Bravadas; the Chevrolet TrailBlazer, which shares the same mechanical parts is not under investigation.

NHTSA says the complaints allege the SUVs stalled at speeds up to 75 miles per hour, causing steering and braking to fail. In some cases the engines could not be restarted and the vehicles had to be towed.

The agency also opened an investigation into 480,000 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable sedans from the 2000 model year after one report of an air bag failing to deploy in a fatal crash. The driver was wearing a seat belt, but suffered fatal head injuries when he lost control of his Taurus and rammed a concrete bridge rail, NHTSA said.

Rangers train for upcoming deployment

FORT KNOX, KY — Approximately 800 special operations Rangers from 3rd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment, from Fort Benning; 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, from Fort Campbell, Ky., and Air Force Special Operations Command from Hurlburt Field, Fla., conducted annual live-fire training at Fort Knox, Ky., from April 13-28.

The 75th Ranger Regiment is a lethal, agile and versatile special operations force that conducts forcible entry operations and raids across the entire spectrum of combat.

In order to maintain their global dominance, Rangers conduct various training exercises throughout the year to hone their skill set.

The unit's exercise is an annual requirement each battalion must conduct prior to deployment.

"In preparation for our next deployment, the battalion started training from the ground up," said Capt. George Puryear, a platoon leader with 3rd Bn., 75th Ranger Regt. "We began after we returned from our last deployment starting with individual tasks; these tasks included individual marksmanship and physical fitness."

After returning from each deployment, the Ranger battalion begins working on the basics again. New recruits and leaders arrive at the unit and must learn to work as a cohesive unit.

Numerous hours are spent on airborne operations, live-fire ranges and squad, platoon, and company-level rehearsals and exercises.

Normally conducted out of Fort Benning, this year's battalion training exercise was conducted at Fort Knox, which offered numerous ranges and different scenarios for the Rangers.

During the two-week training, Rangers conducted numerous squad- and platoon-level rehearsals prior to conducting their live-fire exercises.

They also used the small-arms ranges, conducted fast-rope insertion and extraction special purpose operations (FRIES), shoot house areas and villages similar to what they may see in Afghanistan.

The training provided Rangers with skills necessary to perform raids in areas of conflict.

"During this exercise we were working on platoon- and company-level training. We assessed our strengths and weaknesses to better prepare for our next deployment," said Puryear.

These platoon and company level operations will test each Ranger's knowledge of not only their individual tasks, but the tasks of the entire unit and supporting elements.

"As the platoon leader, I am looking at the platoon's ability to synchronize fires and effects. This is our ability to utilize indirect fire such as mortars, and close combat aerial attack helicopters," Puryear said. The aircraft involved includes helicopters such as Little Birds (AH-6), Black Hawks (MH-60), Chinooks (MH-47); AC-130 Hercules and C-17 Globemaster airplanes and other fixed-wing aircraft capable of moving troops and providing close air support.

By the end of the exercise, special operations Soldiers are proficient in incorporating all of the skills acquired during the training to perform a simulated raid.

The Ranger platoon and air support elements worked together to successfully complete their mission.

Canada’s Food Production Growing but Wasting More

17 April 2015

ANALYSIS - Canada wastes 6 billion kilogrammes of food each year – nearly a third of its total production.

A new report, An Overview of the Canadian Agriculture and Agri-Food System 2015, shows that 20.3 per cent of the food lost or wasted is in the home and 9.1 per cent in the retail and food service sectors.

The total loss is in line with the global figures for the amount of food wasted each year.

Food is lost or wasted at all stages of the agri-food chain and for many reasons ranging from pest and climate issues at the farm level, to infrastructure challenges in the distribution stage to consumer decisions at the household level.

However, analysis of food loss and waste in Canada, the US and other developed countries shows that most of the food loss and waste occurs in households and in the food retail and service sectors.

The report describes the Canadian agriculture and agri-food system (AAFS) as a complex and integrated supply chain that includes input and service suppliers, primary producers, food and beverage processors, food retailers and wholesalers, and foodservice providers.

And is shows the worth the food supply chain holds to the Canadian economy by generating significant economic benefits at both the national and provincial levels.

In 2013, the agriculture and agri-food system generated C$106.9 billion, accounting for 6.7 per cent of Canada’s GDP.

Of this, the food retail and wholesale industry accounted for the largest share with 1.8 per cent, followed by the food, beverage and tobacco processing industry with 1.7 per cent.

The report says that the performance of the sub-sectors within the agriculture and agri-food system depend on their ability to compete in both domestic and international markets over the long-term.

Canada was the world’s fifth-largest exporter of agriculture and agri-food products after the EU, the U.S., Brazil, and China in 2013.

Canadian export sales grew by 5.5 per cent in 2013 to C$46.0 billion, maintaining the country’s 3.5 per cent share of the total value of world agriculture and agri-food exports.

It is estimated that approximately half of the value of primary agriculture production in Canada is exported, as either primary commodities or processed food and beverage products.

The US remains Canada’s most important agriculture and agri-food export destination accounting for 50.8 per cent of total Canadian exports.

China accounted for 11.2 per cent of Canadian agriculture and agri-food exports and Japan, EU and Mexico accounted for 17.0 per cent combined.

Exports to the US increased by 10.8 per cent in 2013 to C$23.4 billion, while exports to non-US markets grew by 6.0 per cent to C$22.7 billion.

Exports to China, which grew by 84.0 per cent in 2012, continued to climb, by 3.5 per cent in 2013.

With import sales of C$34.3 billion in 2013 – an increase of 6.0 per cent over the previous year – Canada remained the world’s sixth-largest importer, accounting for 2.9 per cent of the total value of world agriculture and agri-food imports.

The US accounted for 61.4 per cent of the value of all Canadian agriculture and agri-food imports.

The report says that Canada is also increasing its spending on research and development in the sector, reaching C$643 million in 2013-2014.

A record harvest and strong prices in the first half of 2013, contributed to the growth in farm receipts.

Cattle receipts have increased for four consecutive years due to strong cattle prices.

Strong pig prices contributed to a 5.8 per cent increase in pig sector receipts in 2013.

Overall, market receipts increased in value by 155.4 per cent between 2003 and 2013, with market receipts from grains and oilseeds more than tripling.

This accounted for the largest share (40.0 per cent) of the total value of all farm market receipts in 2013.

However, the share of market receipts from red meat production is falling having dropped from 29 per cent in 2003 to 21 per cent in 2013.

Net cash income among Canadian farms in 2013 was $C12.9 billion – 27.9 per cent above the 2008-2012 average. The net value added in agriculture was C$16.2 billion in 2012 – 30.0 per cent higher than the 2007-2011 average.

The report warns that agriculture producers are continuing to see rising operating costs, with costs increasing by over 40 per cent between 2003 and 2013.

The food and drink processing industry is the largest of all manufacturing industries in Canada, accounting for the largest share (16.0 per cent) of the total manufacturing sector’s GDP in 2013. It also accounted for the largest share (16.7 per cent) of jobs in the manufacturing sector.

The food and beverage processing industry produces goods using both primary and processed products as inputs, about 38 per cent of primary agricultural products produced in Canada is used as raw material inputs by the food processing industry.

The report says that the food and beverage processing industry is still growing with the value of its shipments more than doubling between 1992 and 2013 to C$98.8 billion.

More than half of the total value of food processing shipments come from the meat, dairy, grains and oil seed industries.

Consumer spending on food reached C$189.1 billion in 2013, representing the second-largest household expenditure category, after housing.

The report says that real spending on food and non-alcoholic beverages rose by 2.1 per cent in 2013 partly due to a slight increase in retail food price inflation in Canada.

The share of household expenditures on food has decreased since 1997 in Canada. In 2012 food accounted for 10.3 per cent and 12.8 per cent of all household expenditures in Canada and the US.
