Proper Sampling

Proper sampling of bulk milk is an absolutely essential routine operation. The milk hauler is the key man and for economic and other reasons must be charged with this responsibllity. Coordination and pooling of manpower resources through close participation by the dairy industry and enforcement agencies is necessary. An understanding of the problems and needs by all concerned is essential. There are three basic requirements for proper bulk-milk sampling: (a) a simple, practical routine system; (b) adequate facilities; and (c) adequate training and supervision. These requirements are discussed in detail. The heart of the operation is the “Universal Sampling System.” This system supplemented with proper facilities, training, and supervision will produce reliable and consistent results.

Proper Sampling

A standing discussion topic within the sampling community is: “What is the best way to promote the TOS—not only as a theory, but also as a tool to help customers?” The latter objective casts the question into a rather more direct format: “How to sell TOS-compliant equipment, sampling system solutions, consulting and audit services to customers with only little or no familiarity with the need for proper sampling?” These reflections address the two most dominant answers: i) the economic argument “You’ll lose a lot of money if you don’t…”; or ii) the technical argument: “You need to understand these critical aspects of the TOS, or else…”. However, this is usually but a futile debate; obviously one should be able to wield a flexible tactics which best matches a specific marketing or application need with one, or both, of these approaches. But a recent event has tickled the imagination—is there possibly also a third way?

Significant Factors

Milk quality is measured by a variety of parameters and one of these is the number of somatic cells in the milk. Within the bovine dairy industry there are maximum acceptable levels on bulk milk cell counts and these are being introduced into caprine dairy production. The reference method for cell counting in goats is the direct microscope (DM) method using pyronin Y-methyl green stain, which stains cell DNA. The use of the DeLaval cell counter (DCC) on goats' milk was compared with this reference method. Samples from 102 udder halves were cell counted using the direct microscope method and the DeLaval cell counter (DCC). Each sample was counted twice by two different observers by the DM method and once using DCC. DCC showed large coefficients of regression (1·03) and correlation (0·95) when compared with the DM cell count (F1,199=1080·0; P<0·001). Goat, udder half and reader type were significant factors.

A Current

Administrators of programs for children with communicative disorders in 11 midwestern states were surveyed to assess trends in the training and utilization of paraprofessionals. Topics included: (a) current trends in employment, (b) paraprofessional training, (c) use of ASHA and state guidelines, and (d) district policies for supervision. Selection criteria, use of job descriptions, training programs, and supervision practices and policies were examined. Results indicate that paraprofessionals are used but that standards for training and supervision are not consistently applied across all programs. Program administrators report minimal training for supervising professionals.

Training And Supervision

Abstract The purpose of this article is to provide clinical supervisors with information pertaining to state-of-the-art clinic observation technology. We use a novel video-capture technology, the Landro Play Analyzer, to supervise clinical sessions as well as to train students to improve their clinical skills. We can observe four clinical sessions simultaneously from a central observation center. In addition, speech samples can be analyzed in real-time; saved on a CD, DVD, or flash/jump drive; viewed in slow motion; paused; and analyzed with Microsoft Excel. Procedures for applying the technology for clinical training and supervision will be discussed.

Abstract. The present study examined physiological reactivity to emotional stimuli as a function of attachment style. Skin conductance responses (SCRs) and heart rate (HR) changes were simultaneously recorded while participants engaged in a visual attentional task. The task included positive, neutral, and negative emotional pictures, and required the identification of a target (neutral picture rotated 90° to the left or right), among a stream of pictures in which an emotional distracter (positive or negative) was presented. Participants additionally rated each of the emotional distracters for valence and arousal. Behavioral results on the attentional task showed that positive pictures facilitated overall target detection for all participants, compared to negative and neutral pictures, and that anxiously attached participants had significantly lower accuracy scores, relative to the other groups. Affective ratings indicated that positive pictures were rated as being more pleasant than negative ones, although no differences were found in HR changes to picture valence. In contrast, negative pictures were evaluated as being highly arousing. Consistent with this, negative pictures elicited larger SCRs in both insecure anxious and avoidant groups, especially for the anxious while the secure group showed SCRs unaffected by stimuli’s arousal. Present results show that individuals with different attachment styles reveal distinct patterns of attentional bias, appraisal, and physiological reactivity toward emotionally arousing stimuli. These findings further highlight the regulatory function of the attachment system.
