The continued occurrence of foodborne illness is not evidence of the failure of our food safety system. In fact, many of our prevention and control efforts have been to a reasonable extent, effective. Despite great strides in the area of microbiological food safety, much remains to be done.
Foodborne illness is not a simple problem in need of a quick fix solution; it is a complex combination of factors that must be managed on a continual basis. Changing life-styles and population demographics, global food trade to provide a year-round supply of fruits and vegetables, and novel foods are a few examples of potential increased food safety risks. No matter how sophisticated and complex a system is developed, food safety management is never finished or complete, because change is constant.
With the increasing need for risk based scientific advice to better manage microbiological food safety issues, the Food and agriculture organization (FAO) and World Health organization (WHO) led Codex Alimentarius Commission has been promoting Microbiological Risk Assessments - a tool to inform actions and decisions aimed at improving food safety.
As microbiological food safety issues are brought to the attention of risk managers, there needs to be a systematic preliminary process that brings particular issues into focus and guides further action.
Using microbiological risk assessment as a tool in food safety risk management is an area that is still developing. For MRA to become a truly useful decision-support tool there is a need for risk managers to understand when and how it can be used.
It is against this background that, FAO and ILSI-SA are organizing a hands-on Workshop on MRA for government stakeholders from Southern African countries. The MRA Workshop will equip Risk Managers with knowledge and understanding of practical MRA in order to:
•Identify and prioritize food safety risks to populations in respective countries
•Commission MRA's in their countries or in regions to obtain scientific information on defined food safety risks to populations in that country or region
•Utilise this modern risk-based approach in developing science-based food safety regulations.
•Enhance the level and knowledge of food safety in the region.
•Create an opportunity for regional harmonization of food safety regulations to enhance regional and international trade.
The workshop is being funded by ILSI and the African Solidarity Trust Fund (ASTF). The fund is a unique Africa-led initiative aimed at improving agriculture and food security across the continent.

Inside the KC-10A Extender Tanker - View from the refueling boom operator's control window - hooking up to a C-17 for inflight refueling
Here are all the controls temporarily mounted in the control panel, which has been installed in the cabinet. The buttons serve to mimic both the layout of a NEO GEO control panel as well as a Street Fighter-type six-button layout. It may not be obvious from this photo, but this is pretty much the absolute maximum amount of controls I was going to be able to cram into this control panel.

Burned leaves on the ground at Stony Creek Metropark.
There was a controlled burn of my favorite prairie at the mountain bike trails/Shelden Estates area of Stony Creek Metropark on April 1, 2010.
It looks like some of the fire spread to the woods. I guess that makes it uncontrolled.
An article about the burn appeared in the Oakland Post:
