Last year americans bought more than 2 billion pounds. Consumer reports conducted lab tests and found cause for concern. The hamburger youre grilling could contain harmful bacteria that unless you cook it thoroughly it could make you sick. Consumer reports tested 300 packages of ground beef purchased in Stores Across the country, almost all contained bacteria that signified fecal contamination. More than 40 staph and another that causes almost 1 million cases of Food Poisoning annually, many related to beef. And a significant amount contained bacteria that are resistant to three or more classes of antibiotics. The key reason . The overuse of antibiotics on cattle farms. The creation of antibiotic resistant bacteria, a Major Public Health problem. If you get sick from these bugs, your infection can be difficult to treat. Reporter the test revealed good news. Ground beef from cows that are grass fed and raised without antibiotics were three times less likely to have super bug bacteria. This study is significant because its among the largest scientific studies to show that sustainable methods of raising cattle can produce cleaner and safer ground beef. Reporter when shopping for ground beef Consumer Reports recommends shopping for grass fed or organic, even better is organic and Grass Fed Beef which in their tests was less likely to contain bacteria and super bugs. That beef also comes from animals raised in more humane conditions. No matter what beef you buy, Consumer Reports remind you that cooking to 160 degrees fahrenheit is the safest temperature for your meat so that the bacteria has been killed. Consumer reports contacted the National Beef association. The spokesperson there said if all cattle were grass fed wed have less beef and it would be less affordable. Since grass doesnt grow in pasture year round in many parts of the country. Make the most efficient use of land, water, fuel, labor, and feed. The best defense is to cook it thoroughly then. Michael, thank you. Judges rule today business that is do not protect customers personally identifying information can be published by the federal government.

Today it has 12 open positions for educators. Lyanne melendez caught up with one of the new hires who happens to be a teacher of the year. Oh, okay, i thought it was a southern accent. Reporter Wanda Reynolds was named new jersey teacher of the year. In may while contemplating a move oakland caught her attention. The people, the school, the history here. Oakland is entrenched in africanamerican history and so many movements, power movements have been made in this community. How could i not love it . Reporter Alliance Academy in east oakland jumped at the opportunity to hire someone like reynolds, a seasoned english teacher committed to working in underserved communities. Last year Alliance Academy faced a harsh reality. Only 9 of students here were able to read at or above grade level. Finding teachers willing to come and invest has been a challenge with a Teacher Shortage. Other schools were looking for teachers. What would happen, if a school had a more solid history, the teachers were able to make a choice and so they would choose, of course, the school that seemed more security. Reporter reynolds is seen as a rising star in the school. The Teacher Shortage was due to baby boomers retiring and years of handing out pink slips during the Great Recession also discouraged many from getting into teaching. Thats now changing. We just increased pay for our teachers and so were competitive in terms of salary and still offering the best benefits of the region and then we started recruiting early. Reporter oakland says the search for more teachers in key positions continues. In oakland, lyanne melendez, abc 7 news. All right. Lets go back to napa for a moment where a celebration continues. Our dan ashley joins us from downtown napa. City leaders are calling this a celebration but it is so much more than that. Oh, youre exactly right, cheryl. Its time to assess whats been done and what still needs to be done. The mayor and other leaders say they are preparing for future emergencies using the Lessons Learned from the 6. 0 earthquake exactly a year ago. They are taking into account how much work they have done and what still needs to be done as the recovery continues. This event today is called napa strong. It is the sentiment shared by communities that stood together after they were shaken by that devastating earthquake, the biggest since 1989 in the bay area. Napas mayor says theyve come so far from that terrifying moment and an overwhelming feeling of so much work ahead is still present. A year ago it was scary. So many unknowns. We didnt know the extent of the damage. We could see it was really a mess, so much cleanup to do, and just didnt know how long it was going to take to get back on our feet. Now the mayor says about 85 of the construction that needs to be done has been done. So clearly there is a lot of progress that has been made. I stand here on main street at third in downtown napa and we can see a lot of work still to be done, some of the buildings knocked down so badly a year ago are still in need of repair. Workers today earlier were just all over these buildings getting work done. The work continues, cheryl. Dan, its remarkable. They are so resilient. Thanks so much. Oh, absolutely. Well, you know the napa earthquake was the first major earthquake to hit the bay area in the 21st century. A lot of us who felt it responded in a very 21st century way. It woke me up in the middle of the night. I sent out a tweet asking others what they felt. Abc 7 news viewers had a lot to share. I got bombarded with tweets. Pleasanton felt the whole house meeting. Gas leaks in american canyon. Thats a car in downtown napa. Bay area social media lit up with pictures and video. I want to show you the newest video were getting here. This facebook posting showed guests at a napa hotel evacuating as alarms sounded and water flooded the hallways. First the local residents shared what they saw. Soon emergency officials including the napa police were also using twitter and other social media to get out critical information. Napa Officials SayMedia Outlets helped by retweeting Important News to a much wider audience. The electricity went out. A lot of people didnt have tv. But many did have cell phones, now a key part of disaster response. Hurricane sandy in 2012 is actually considered the landmark event that launched social media as a critical tool in natural disasters. Now that tool is being finetuned in communities all over the bay area. It helped people connect, find out what was happening, help people to be able to come here and help. In napa that meant sharing scenes of great loss, also linking lost pets and their owners, helping quake victims in need, and sharing the incredible resilience of our bay area community. If you have pictures or video of napa quake damage or cleanup, please share it with us by posting on social media with the abc7now. Today has been a big day as weve seen for residents in napa county.
