Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the Italian author of Invisible Cities, If On A Winter's Night A Traveller, Cosmicomics and other celebrated novels, fables and short stories of the 20th Century. Calvino (1923 -1985) had a passionate belief that writing and art could make life better for everyone. Despite his parents being scientists, who dearly wanted him to be a scientist too, and his time fighting with the Partisans in Liguria in WWII during which his parents were held hostage by the Nazis, Calvino turned away from realism in his writing. Ideally, he said, he would have liked to be alive in the Enlightenment. He moved towards the fantastical, drawing on his childhood reading while collecting a huge number of the fables of Italy and translating them from dialect into Italian to enrich the shared culture of his fellow citizens. His fresh perspective on the novel continues to inspire writers and delight readers in Italian and in translations around the world.With Guido Bonsaver Professor of Italian Cultural History at the University of OxfordJennifer Burns Professor of Italian Studies at the University of WarwickAndBeatrice Sica Associate Professor in Italian Studies at UCLProducer: Simon TillotsonReading list: Elio Baldi, The Author in Criticism: Italo Calvino's Authorial Image in Italy, the United States, and the United Kingdom (Fairleigh Dickinson University Press, 2020)Elio Baldi and Cecilia Schwartz, Circulation, Translation and Reception Across Borders: Italo Calvino's Invisible Cities Around the World (Routledge, 2024)Peter Bondanella and Andrea Ciccarelli (eds.), The Cambridge Companion to the Italian Novel (Cambridge University Press, 2003), especially the chapter ‘Italo Calvino and Umberto Eco: Postmodern Masters'James Butler, ‘Infinite Artichoke' (London Review of Books, vol. 45, no. 12, 15 June 2023)Italo Calvino (trans.

MERCK ANIMAL HEALTH Optimizing Vaccine Efficacy In Animal Health:  Best Practices & Considerations Vaccines play a crucial role in safeguarding animal health by bolstering their immune systems against various pathogens. Understanding proper storage, handling, and administration of vaccines is essential to ensure their effectiveness. Key Points: 1. Importance of Vaccines: Vaccines are preventive tools designed to prepare an animal's immune system to combat diseases caused by bacteria, viruses, or protozoa.   2. Proper Handling and Storage: Deviations from label instructions regarding storage, transportation, and handling can compromise vaccine efficacy. Vaccines should be stored in refrigerators maintaining optimal temperatures.   3. Factors Affecting Efficacy: Nutritional deficiencies, environmental stressors, and preexisting health conditions can influence an animal's response to vaccination.   4. Administration Best Practices: Proper reconstitution, mixing, and administration techniques are crucial for vaccine effectiveness.   5. Herd Veterinarian Guidance: Tailoring vaccination programs to specific herd needs and consulting with a veterinarian ensures optimal protection.   6. Vaccine Types and Revaccination: Understanding differences between modified live virus (MLV) and killed virus (KV) vaccines and adhering to recommended revaccination schedules are vital.   7. Calfhood Vaccination Programs: Initiating comprehensive vaccination programs early in a calf's life, especially during pre weaning stages, is essential for disease prevention.   8. Essential Components: Commonly included vaccines protect against respiratory diseases and clostridial infections, but specific vaccine decisions should be made with veterinary consultation.   9. Heifer Vaccination: Vaccination programs for replacement heifers should mirror those for mature cows, with consideration for reproductive diseases.   10. Pre Breeding and Pre Calving Vaccinations: Timing and selection of vaccines are critical to ensure adequate immunity transfer and protection for newborn calves.   11. Bull Vaccination: Bulls should receive similar vaccines as the cow herd, with exceptions such as brucellosis vaccination. Effective vaccine utilization requires adherence to proper storage, handling, and administration practices, along with tailored vaccination programs guided by veterinary expertise. By implementing these strategies, livestock producers can enhance animal health and productivity while mitigating disease risks.

The designation allows the voluntary “Product of USA” or “Made in the USA” label claim to be used on meat, poultry and egg products only when they come from animals born, raised, slaughtered and processed in the United States. The final rule aims to prohibit misleading U.S. origin labeling in the marketplace and helps ensure that the information that consumers receive about where their food comes from is based on facts. The labels will continue to maintain their voluntary status for use on products and also will be eligible for generic label approval, which removes the need for pre-approval by USDA, but requires manufacturers to maintain documentation to support the claim. Last summer, the country of origin labeling rules (COOL), as they were proposed, covering meat, poultry and egg products, were criticized by the Canadian government and the National Pork Producers Council because they included specific regulations on where the animals were raised, which were not part of earlier versions of the rule. Companies that use the “Made in the USA” claim will need to comply with the final rule by Jan. 1, 2026, but are being encouraged to do so as soon as possible. The National Cattlemen's Beef Association's Executive Director of Government Affairs Kent Bacus released the following statement on the USDA's finalized rule on the "Product of USA" label by saying, “NCBA has been committed to finding solutions to this problem ever since a producer-led NCBA working group raised the alarm, years ago, that imported beef could be mislabeled as a Product of the USA incorrectly at the end of the supply chain. We appreciate USDA's effort to address this loophole. During the implementation period, NCBA's focus will remain on ensuring that these changes result in the opportunity for producer premiums while remaining trade compliant.”   UPCOMING BULL SALES ANGUS CHAROLAIS HEREFORD GELBVIEH BALANCER RED ANGUS SIMMENTAL SIMANGUS Weber Land & Cattle:  March 12, 2024, Lake Benton, Minnesota Sundsbak Farms: March 16, 2024, Des Lacs, North Dakota Hidden Angus: March 17, 2024, Sebeka, Minnesota Wheatland Cattle Company:  March 21, 2024, Bienfait, Saskatchewan, Canada Miller Angus Farms: March 25, 2024, Watertown, South Dakota L 83 Ranch: March 26, 2024, Mandan, ND Vollmer Angus Ranch: April 2, 2024, Wing, North Dakota A & B Cattle:  April 4, 2024, Bassett, Nebraska Montgomery Ranch: April 14, 2024, Carrington, North Dakota Jorgensen Farms:  April 15, 2024, Ideal, South Dakota BULL SALE REPORT & RESULTS Churchill Cattle Company Van Newkirk Herefords Gardiner Angus Ranch Cow Camp Ranch Jungels Shorthorn Farms Ellingson Angus Edgar Brothers Angus Schaff Angus Valley Prairie Hills Gelbvieh Clear Springs Cattle Company CK Cattle Mrnak Hereford Ranch Frey Angus Ranch Hoffmann Angus Farms Topp Herefords River Creek Farms Upstream Ranch Gustin's Diamond D Gelbvieh Schiefelbein Farms Wasem Red Angus Raven Angus Krebs Ranch Yon Family Farms Chestnut Angus Eichacker Simmentals & JK Angus Windy Creek Cattle Company Pedersen Broken Heart Ranch Mar Mac Farms Warner Beef Genetics Arda Farms & Freeway Angus Leland Red Angus & Koester Red Angus Fast - Dohrmann - Strommen RBM Livestock Weber Land & Cattle FEATURING Dr. Tim Parks, D.V.M.

More simply stated, vaccines are intended to be used to prevent disease and generally do so through establishing and maintaining relatively high levels of circulating antibody titers. Because antibody titers wane over time, it is important that vaccines be administered and readministered (often referred to as "boostered") at the times necessary to result in antibody coverage throughout expected or potential exposure to disease-causing pathogens. It is critically important to recognize that vaccines are intended to be preventive tools, and the efficacy of any tool can be impacted by how it is used. Because vaccines are biological products, they are often susceptible to environmental abuse and exposure to conditions outside of certain optimal ranges. As such, vaccines should be stored, handled, and administered in ways that are described on the label using techniques that protect product efficacy. The product label contains the information necessary to ensure that product storage, handling, and administration practices do not limit or negate product efficacy. Deviations from such instructions may result in decreased product efficacy. In general, most vaccines should be refrigerated, but not frozen, and should remain within the desired refrigerated temperature range throughout storage, transportation, and up to the time of administration. The most common causes of decreased efficacy are storage, transportation, and handling abuse. Examples include not transporting vaccines in coolers, not storing vaccines in coolers on working days, and storing vaccines in refrigerators that do not maintain temperature within the necessary range. Vaccines that will be stored for extended periods of time should be stored only in refrigerators that have been verified to maintain the correct temperature range. Data-logging thermometers are an inexpensive but valuable investment. Vaccines, including vaccine vials and loaded syringes, should also be protected from direct exposure to sunlight. In addition, vaccines that have been exposed to the environment by puncturing the seal with a needle should not be stored and reused. If a needle has been inserted into the vial, the vaccine should be used during that working event, and any unused contents discarded per label directions. Storing previously opened vaccines allows for the potential growth of harmful microorganisms, and thus should be avoided in order to minimize the risk of unintentionally causing an adverse reaction or health event. Some vaccines require reconstitution by adding diluent to a dehydrated powder. All vaccines require mixing or agitating before administration. Mix vaccines gently by slowly swirling and inverting unless the label specifies otherwise. If reconstitution is required, reconstitute and mix only the amount of vaccine that will be used within an hour or less. Do not mix the entire day's allotment of vaccine at the beginning of a working event. It is good practice to reconstitute and mix only a single bottle of vaccine at a time. Disposable syringes and needles should be discarded after each use. Repeatable, repeater, or "pistol-grip" style syringes should be cleaned after each use. Do not use soap, cleaning agents, or chemical disinfectants to clean reusable syringes. Rather, flush them repeatedly with hot water. Water should be boiled and allowed to cool slightly before repeatedly filling and emptying the syringe. Transfer needles should be boiled in water, then allowed to dry before storage and eventual reuse. Syringe lubricants are not recommended because they represent a potential risk to product efficacy through interaction with the active components of the vaccine. Syringe lubricants are also unnecessary because the initial draw of a vaccine into the syringe provides adequate lubrication. Syringe O-rings should be replaced as necessary, and extras should be kept on hand so that they are available when needed. This will help to minimize the risk of a syringe failure. Similarly, vaccine efficacy may be limited by the ability of the animal's immune system to adequately respond to the vaccine. There are a number of animal-related factors that may influence vaccine efficacy. Of these, nutrition and environmental stressors are the most common. Both nutrient deficiencies and toxicities can impair immune function and, as a result, influence an individual animal's response to a vaccine. Trace mineral, protein, and energy deficiencies are the most common nutrition-related issues that limit vaccine efficacy. Energy deficiencies are generally easy to identify through low levels of animal performance, low body condition, and general unthriftiness. Trace mineral and protein deficiencies are often more difficult to visually identify. Trace mineral deficiencies, however, are easy to correct through supplementing with minerals or including trace mineral sources at adequate (but not excessive) levels in a complete ration. Consumption of mycotoxins, other toxins, or other antinutritional factors may also impact vaccine efficacy. In addition, pre existing disease, heavy parasite loads, heat stress, and cold stress are all conditions that may also influence the animal's immune system and as a result, its ability to fully respond to a vaccine. Although certain vaccinations are highlighted in this chapter, their mention should be considered a general rule of thumb. Their necessity for a given herd health program, or the lack thereof, may be subject to interpretation or opinion. The herd veterinarian is best positioned to provide direct recommendations on vaccination programs, including which components should be considered essential, and their optimum timing of administration. Generally speaking, modified live virus (MLV) vaccines typically do not require revaccination to result in an effective antibody response. Killed virus (KV) vaccines, or combined KV and MLV vaccines, generally do require a revaccination (or booster) to result in an effective vaccination as defined by antibody response. Vaccines that require revaccination should be readministered within the period of time described on the product label. Vaccines that do not require revaccination should be administered at or near the time of weaning. Nonetheless, the product label and herd veterinarian should determine if and when revaccination is necessary to result in an effective antibody response. A strong, comprehensive beef cattle vaccination program begins with implementation at the cow-calf level. From a life cycle standpoint, preweaning calfhood vaccinations are the greatest opportunity to initiate a comprehensive and effective vaccination program. Timing of preweaning vaccinations generally coincides with other working events, such as branding, pre breeding vaccinations of the cow herd, or bull turnout. Vaccinating calves at this time will help to minimize the risk of preweaning disease and will better prepare them to withstand the stress of weaning. Calfhood vaccination programs should at minimum include vaccination against various clostridial and viral respiratory diseases. Common essential components of calfhood viral respiratory disease vaccines include: bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) types I and II infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) parainfluenza type-3 (PI-3) In addition, clostridial disease vaccinations commonly include coverage against the following: Clostridium chauvoei C haemolyticum C novyi C perfringens types C & D C septicum and may also include C sordelli and/or C tetani. Some calfhood vaccination programs may also include vaccination against bacteria such as Mannheimia haemolytica and Pasteurella multocida, which cause bovine respiratory disease (BRD). It is important to recognize that this is not a comprehensive list, and specific vaccine decisions should be made in consultation with the herd veterinarian. The vaccination programs of calves that will be developed to become replacement heifers also commonly include vaccination against reproductive diseases and should be similar to the vaccine program used for the mature cow herd. In addition to IBR and BVD, and depending upon local disease risk, vaccination against Brucella, Leptospira, Vibrio, Trichomonas, Campylobacter , or anthrax may also be warranted or recommended. Brucellosis vaccination must be performed according to state regulations. Modified live vaccines for IBR and BVD give the broadest immunity to strain differences and should be administered twice to ensure a high level of immunity. Some evidence suggests that MLV BVD and IBR vaccines may affect the ovary for a short period of time after vaccination and potentially result in a minor decrease in fertility when administered immediately before or during the breeding season. For this reason, MLV IBR and/or BVD vaccines should be administered at least 1 month before the beginning of the breeding season. While vaccination of heifers with Trichomonas vaccine may increase calving rate and decrease the duration of infection in infected herds, it is important to recognize that it may not prevent infection. Vaccination against trichomoniasis may be useful in infected herds or in herds at high risk of infection, but may not yield a positive return on investment in low-risk herds. These decisions should be made in consultation with the herd veterinarian and should be based upon risk of exposure and potential economic impact. Pre Breeding vaccinations should be completed at least 4 weeks before the onset of the breeding season. Pre Calving vaccinations are intended to protect the newborn calf through colostral transfer. It may be possible for pre calving vaccinations to serve as effective pre breeding vaccinations; however, it is important to ensure that the vaccination program will provide sufficient duration of immunity to cover cattle throughout the time of greatest risk. In addition, vaccination against bacterial scours (calf diarrhea) can be a beneficial component of a herd health program. Bulls should receive the same vaccines as the cow herd, with some exceptions. Bulls should not be vaccinated for brucellosis. Similar precautions with MLV IBR vaccines should be taken for bulls as for cows. COW COUNTRY NEWS U.S Lawmakers, Cattlemen Seek Ban On Paraguayan Beef Imports U.S. Senators Jon Tester from Montana and Mike Rounds from South Dakota on Monday filed a Congressional Review Act that would overturn USDA's removal of a long-standing ban on beef imports from Paraguay. Congress may use a Congressional Review Act to overturn final rules issued by federal agencies by a simple majority vote. The move is supported by the National Cattlemen's Beef Association, United States Cattlemen's Association, R-CALF USA, Livestock Marketing Association, National Farmers Union, Montana Farmers Union, Montana Stockgrowers Association, and the Montana Farm Bureau Federation.  Opponents to the Biden administration's decision to allow beef imports from Paraguay argue it is based on outdated inspections, without recent visits to confirm no risk of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD).   Tester and Rounds also introduced bipartisan legislation late last year to suspend beef imports from Paraguay in response to such animal health concerns. That bill would also require the establishment of a working group to evaluate the threat to food safety and animal health posed by Paraguayan beef. The two senators have called on the USDA to collect more up-to-date data before resuming beef imports from Paraguay, whose last case of Foot and Mouth Disease occurred in 2012. Also last year, Tester and Rounds introduced bipartisan legislation to suspend Brazilian beef imports to the U.S. until experts can conduct a systemic review of the commodity's impact on food safety and animal health.   The American Farmer Continues To Grow Older The American Farmer continues to grow older. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service announced the results of the 2022 Census of Agriculture, spanning more than 6 million data points about America's farms and ranches. The average American farmer is now 58.1 years old, which is an increase of about half a year compared to the last census conducted in 2017. Farmers who are 65 and older increased by 12% in this census, while farmers aged 35-64 decreased by 9%. There were 1.9 million farms and ranches, down 7% from 2017, with an average size of 463 acres.  That is up 5% on 880 million acres of farmland, which is 39% of all U.S. land. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack asks “This survey is essentially asking the critical question of whether as a country are we okay with losing that many farms? Are we okay with losing that much farmland or is there a better way? That's the importance of this survey. It allows us to take a snapshot in time, allows us to compare what has occurred over the five-year period, and begins to ask ourselves questions about the policy formation and the direction that we need to take in order to correct or deal with some of the challenges that the data presents.” Ag census data provides a valuable insight into demographics, economics, land use and activities on United States farms and ranches.

Last year I interviewed Margaret Atwood about "the role" of the writer. No such thing she informed me. So we talked about the "non-role." Combatative she is. Just like Tim Parks. He talks with me here about the other end of the spectrum, the reader. How to be a better one. I want him to be prescriptive, he won't be. But he does provide a lot of excellent insights, despite the resistence. Tim is an author, essayist, and translator. He was born in Manchester in 1954, grew up in London, and studied at Cambridge and Harvard. Not sure where or if he graduated from anywhere, but no matter. He's written 19 novels including Europa, Destiny, and most recently Hotel Milano, plus numerous works of non-fiction, including Where I'm Reading From, which we reference during our conversation. He's a regular contributor to the London Review of Books and the New York Review of Books. Aside from his own writing he has translated works by Moravia, Pavese, Calvino, Machiavelli and Leopardi from Italian into English. He's a very astute reader. A best practitioner I'd say, which makes him eligible to be a Biblio File podcast guest - given that our mission is to interview the best in the world of books. I invited him to talk about how "best" to go about reading a book. We talk about Borges's essays - notably one on James Joyce's perfect reader; an author's manner of addressing the reader, what the reader brings to the text, having an open attitude about what you read; Thomas Hardy; D.H. Lawrence as one of Hardy's best readers; Mortimer Adler; being argumentative, and more.

Riccardo Manzotti is a philosopher, psychologist, and AI expert and the author of The Spread Mind: Why Consciousness and the World Are One. Born in Parma, Italy, in 1969, Manzotti received his PhD from the University of Genova in 2001, and is currently full professor of theoretical philosophy at IULM University (Milan). He has been Fulbright Visiting Scholar at MIT (Boston).Manzotti originally specialized in robotics and AI where he started to wonder how can matter have experience of the surrounding world. Eventually he has been a psychologist from 2004 to 2015 and then he has become a full time philosopher. His current research focuses on the issue of consciousness and the structure of reality: What is the relationship between experience and the physical world? What is consciousness? Is there a separation between our experience of the world and the world? Does the present have a fixed time span? Can we design and build a conscious machine? What ethical questions do consciousness and technology raise in the 21st century? In 2014, at MIT, Riccardo Manzotti presented the Spread Mind Theory (elsewhere dubbed the Mind-Object Identity Theory) that addresses the hard problem of consciousness in a completely radical and new way. Over the last few years, Manzotti has continued to develop and test this hypothesis interacting with the international scientific and philosophical community. Published in 2018, Manzotti's The Spread Mind has outlined a radical change in the way we conceive us and the world. Based on empirical evidence from physics and neuroscience, the book develops and verify the astonishing hypothesis that our conscious experience is indeed one and the same with the external world. The book revisits familiar notions about dreams, illusions, and hallucinations. The book has been translated in many languages such as Chinese, Italian, Turkish. In 2019 Riccardo Manzotti returned together with the acclaimed novelist Tim Parks with Dialogues on Consciousness, an engaging and humorous dialogue about the nature of consciousness and our everyday life. Prof. Manzotti lectures around the world on the topics explored in his books and articles, and has written for publications such as The New York Review of Books, Doppio Zero. He also offers his knowledge and time to various organizations and audiences on a voluntary basis.

The 2022 edition of the Giro d'Italia finishes in Verona – just as the 1984 edition did, and it is that race which has long fascinated Lionel Birnie. It took place towards the end of the second great era of rivalry in Italian cycling. Francesco Moser was heading towards the end of his career and had yet to win the Giro. Time was running out but all of Italy was willing him to do it, including the race director Vincenzo Torriani. This episode tells the story of the 1984 Giro and features the journalist Herbie Sykes, author of Giro 100, but it also explains the city of Verona and its place in Italy through the eyes of another writer, Tim Parks, who in the 1990s spent a season discovering Italy while watching Hellas Verona home and away.

Richard Bellamy et al., "Flexible Europe: Differentiated Integration, Democracy, and Domination" (Bristol UP, 2022)

The past decade has been pivotal in the development of the European Union. The single currency has been tested to the limits by successive crises in the financial system, public-debt sustainability and public health. A migration crisis stress-tested the EU's free-travel area and its under-developed refugee and asylum policies. The Hungarian and Polish governments are backsliding on the union's foundational commitments to democracy and rule of law and, for the first time in the Communities' six-decade history, a full member state has left altogether. The weaknesses of the EU's part-federal, part-intergovernmental design have been exposed but so has its resilience through flexibility. Flexible Europe: Differentiated Integration, Fairness, and Democracy (Bristol University Press, 2022) explores this design and its "demoicratic" (not democratic) nature. Differentiated integration, the co-writers conclude, is “not only functionally necessary but also normatively desirable given the ineliminable diversity and pluralism of any union as large as the EU”. Richard Bellamy is professor of political science at University College London and founder of its European Institute. Sandra Kröger is associate professor of political science at the University of Exeter and Director of its Centre for European Studies. Marta Lorimer is a fellow in European Politics at the London School of Economics' European Institute. *The authors' own book recommendations are: Worldmaking after Empire by Adom Getachew (Princeton University Press, 2020), Europa by Tim Parks (Vintage, 1998), The Age of Surveillance Capitalism by Shoshana Zuboff (Profile Books, 2019), Where You Come From by Saša Stanišić (Jonathan Cape, 2021 - translated by Damion Searls), The Struggle for EU Legitimacy by Claudia Sternberg (Palgrave Macmillan; 2013), and The Moon and the Bonfires by Cesare Pavese (first published in 1949 - latest English version from Penguin Modern Classics, 2021 translated by Tim Parks).

¡No es un audiolibro! ¡¡Programa regrabado!! Manual para mujeres de la limpieza, de la escritora estadounidense Lucia Berlin, es una antología de relatos de una calidad notable que llegó a nosotros hace pocos años, mucho después de la muerte de su autora, de igual manera que se encuentra un mensaje en una botella. Ella es quizás uno de los ejemplos más notables de la cuentística norteamericana, una pionera del estilo, olvidada por muchos durante años y ahora venerada con razón. Sus relatos rompen con el espejismo del sueño americano para mostrarnos una serie de personajes femeninnos, aunque quizás sea solo una, inmersas en pequeñas tragedias cotidianas. La muerte, la soledad y el desarraigo son algunos de los grandes temas que atraviesan está compilación de relatos, considerada por el suplemento literario Babelia el mejor libro del año en 2016. Para hablar sobre esta antología, tenemos hoy una invitada de lujo. Eugenia Vázquez Nacarino (Barcelona, 1974) es el puente que ha permitido acercar al mundo hispanohablante a Lucia Berlin. Traductora de su obra, pero también de otros importantes autores como Henry James, Cynthia Ozick, Charles Baxter, Tim Parks, Shani Boianjiu, Alice Munro o Sylvia Plath, es una gran conocedora de la narrativa contemporánea y del complejísimo arte de la traducción. Prueba de ello es que en 2019 obtuvo el prestigioso Premio de Traducción Esther Benítez por su trabajo en Una noche en el paraíso, también de Lucia Berlin. ¡La revolución ha comenzado!
