A Bill Of Rights for Dogs

Thanks for sharing this. Ever since Patrick's story it has opened my eyes to animal abuse and their rights. It's fueled my drive to help in anyway to change the laws against those that abuse these precious animals.

To construct a list of rights as if dogs were capable of near-human cognition is to mock, denigrate, or negate the sanctity of individual rights.

Get your son a friend, daughter. We did and don't regret it a bit! He/they, are happy, love each other, have very different personalities but love toplay and cuddle with each other. We got our daughter, Latifah, when we were both still working. Our son, Bumper, was so sad to see us go. We're both retired now and enjoy hanging out with them and taking them with us when we can, but it's great to know that when we can't, they have each other and will not be truly alone.

How about adding the right to express their love for us and to receive it in return.
Submitted by Taminator | July 1 2011 | Permalink
Dear Anonymous,
I find your comments interestingly negative and fail to comprehend your reasoning. This is a fabulous article reminding us of our God commissioned responsibilities to all animals and particularly those we have domesticated and modified. God set us up to "Have Dominion over the beasts"; however upon researching God's word in it's original language that word "dominion" means to care for, entrusted with care, care with respect and love, wise steward, etc. The definition is rather lengthy and quite enlightening. Additionally, the script of God's word during creation states that ALL the creatures were created "Having a living soul". It is our duty to care for them with the utmost love, respect and responsibility we possess. Our creator entrusted them to us, so yes we can liken them to a form a "humanity". This article was provided to remind us of the rights of all living things, not just people. And if you truly wished to express valid counterpoints instead of inciting Devil's Advocate aggravation, you would at least have to spine to include your name instead of hiding behind "Anonymous". Be well, be blessed and let us all reflect on the great reminder this article has given us. Thank you Mr. Bradshaw for that reminder and continue your positive work.

What about first amendment rights... freedom of speech? My neighbors call the police every time my dog barks. He is not an annoyance barker. He never barks more than three to six barks and only when there is movement on the hill behind our house. Barking is canine communication. They are alerting their humans something is not right. My dog is a service dog, 99% of the time he is at my side. I have been told I must put a bark collar on him. This is the most ridiculous inhumane request. I do NOT allow my dog to bark uncontrollably. I let him out a few times a day for some exercise and to relieve himself. If he barks I get up and see what he is barking about and let him in. 9 out of 10 times it is because someone is on the hill behind the house. One night he did bark and would not come in. I was at my wits end and forced him in the house. Ends up someone was breaking into the car next door to me, the very neighbor who calls the police every time he barks. I no longer let him out at night alone. I am disabled and it is difficult for me to have to get up and go out with him during the night. Funny thing is it is not usually even my dog barking. I live in a residential area with several multiple pet homes. Give dogs a break, people.

Call of Duty 'Elite' service preview
Call of Duty games reign as the most popular online shooters. Every day players log an unbelievable number of hours playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Call of Duty: Black Ops, and even some of the older titles in the franchise. But while individually the games provide an extensive system for following a player's career in the game, the tracking only covered performance in each game individually.
That's where Call of Duty Elite, the new service being created by Beachhead Studios, comes in. It keeps up with all those stats and serves them up in one place. But Elite goes beyond simply creating a single character profile that works across all upcoming Call of Duty games. Its developers say they aim to create better ways for players to connect, compete, and improve.
There will be a number of ways to get to Elite. It will be built into the games, of course, as well as being accessible directly from game consoles and off the Net with a browser. Mobile versions are also in the works for phones and tablets on both iOS and Android. It doesn't sound like being connected is likely to pose much of a problem.
With all that access, players will be able to interact with Elite much in the same way they would Facebook. Creating a sort of Call of Duty social network is certainly part of the goal for the service. Beachhead wants Elite to be the tool through which everyone shares their online progress, media like screens and videos, message each other, form clans, and create and play in organized tournaments.
Changing the way players get together to play online is another important part of the service. Currently, playlists are the most common means of gathering people to play online. Elite will offer new ways to get games going, like by joining others with a shared interest for instance. The common ground could be something game related but it doesn't have to be. If all the fans of a sports team wanted to get together for a few matches, Elite would get them setup.
The improvement tools are potentially the most valuable part of the package. A lot of people may play Call of Duty online, but a much smaller number of them form the skilled group that is always seen at the top of the leaderboard for a match. All the rest play less consistently, with plenty of opportunity to improve. Elite provides tools like heatmaps that show all a player's kills and deaths on a map to help them learn where they do and don't want to be the next time.
From looking at tendencies and statistics, Elite can then recommend tutorials tailored to get better in related areas. These can cover things like the best way to employ a certain weapon, pros and cons for their attachments, or how to make the best use of different perks. Video tutorials will also be part of the package.
Elite will launch in full alongside Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 this coming November, but a beta will come on line this summer to test the service running with Black Ops. Much of what it offers will be free but there will also be a premium paid membership option. What exactly that will entail and how much it will cost has not been determined yet. It will, though, be an all-inclusive subscription to content for Modern Warfare. Subscribers will receive every map pack at no additional cost as part of the deal.
How Activision decides what features will be free versus for pay will potentially make of break Elite. I played a couple rounds of Black Ops with Elite running and can personally attest to the depth of post match information it provides. It's easy to get drawn into examining how every move on a map played out. But for the social network aspect to work, Elite needs to get a large number of Call of Duty players using the service. To get that, I think they need to give players the parts they most want, like the advanced stat keeping, so everyone is in there everyday checking out their reports.
If you'd like to get in on the upcoming Elite beta, hit their official site, where sign ups are set to begin.

By Charlie LeDuffFox 2 NewsDETROIT (WJBK) -- With Detroit struggling to pay its bills, the Fox 2 Problem Solvers uncover some payments that will have you shaking your head. This is a story of more money being wasted.You remember Detroit Police Chief Ralph Godbee caught up last October loving, leaving and breaking the hearts of his female subordinates? And then he got canned by Mayor Bing, who allowed him to retire."Chief Godbee has submitted a letter announcing his retirement effective immediately," Bing said in October of last year.Well then how come Godbee is still getting paid by a city that can't pay its cops, can't pay its firefighters and can't pay its bills?"I'd love to know where's the money that is being paid to him. I'd love to know where's the money that we have to give to all these people to do restructuring 65 times. What do you do? What am I supposed to do? And I have to scrub toilets and work side jobs to make my bills," says a Detroit police officer.Now nobody has seen Godbee around the place doing any work, but according to payroll stubs obtained by Fox 2 News, Godbee still gets regular pay and holiday pay. He earns vacation days and sick leave. Now sometimes he fills out his check with banked time from when he was not supposedly retired."Right now he is not being paid by the police and fire retirement system, and according to the reports that I have in front of me here, it's obvious that he is still being carried on the books," says Mark Diaz, president of the Detroit Police Officers Association.But the mayor said "effective immediately"."I don't understand how we're paying for two police chiefs," says Jerome Warfield, chairman of the Detroit Police Commission.Should they just kick him to the curb?"Again, that's the mayor and his staff, and I think he will be better able to answer that question."Bing's press guy had no comment.Now current chief or former chief or co-chief or whatever Godbee is isn't the only horn dog drawing a public check in Detroit.Nude texter and Third Circuit Court Judge Wade McCree got into his own hot water in December after we revealed that the buff barrister had impregnated a young woman who had a child support case before him.He made a fool of himself and the court, but even though the court is broke, they are still paying the judge $12,000 a month.Now that made the Judicial Tenure Commission so mad that we found out they asked the Michigan Supreme Court to suspend McCree without pay while they investigate. Highly unusual.Now let me say this loud and clear. Good governance starts from the top, and if you want to get things fixed, you know where to look.

WEBER STATE UNIVERSITY The Signpost FRIDAY NOVEMBER 21, 2008 VOLUME 79 ISSUE 44 Bell Tower Plaza rededication Ribbon-cutting ceremony held at plaza Thursday By Heidi LeBaron news editor The Signpost In the eight years Rob Ferguson has been attending Weber State University, the campus has transformed. When he started working on a BS degree in radiology, the central campus looked like a sea of concrete where dead trees lined the pathway to the library. In 2003, a reconstruction project began to improve the campus look. Buildings and landscaping took shape; ultimately the Stewart Bell Tower plaza was closed. Rock and water features were brought in and, after eighteen months, the project hit a milestone. Ferguson was in the crowd Thursday when University President F. Ann Millner and former-President Dean Hurst rededicated the Bell Tower plaza. "I like it, " Ferguson said. "It looks a lot better. This whole landscaping thing beautiful. " Millner said the Bell Tower has become an icon for the institution and a center of campus happenings. "This has really become the core of this campus, " Millner said. Hurst agreed as he addressed the gathered crowd."That Bell Tower has served as an icon that has weathered the weather well, " Hurst said. Millner said the new landscaping incorporates the surrounding environment. "Really, it's reflective of what we all love about living in Utah, " Millner said. "What a wonderful opportunity to have that in the center of our campus. The plaza was opened See Bell Tower page 6 "I don't think any of us believed we would be able to accomplish in five years what's happened when you look at the total on this campus. This is the centerpiece of that in many ways" F. Ann Millner, WSU President WSU ROTC Major Keith J. McVeigh rappels down the Bell Tower during the opening ceremony for the renovated project. Purple smoke filled the air as the ribbon was cut once McVeigh hit the stage.

John George Jack (1861–1949)
In 1905, John George Jack embarked on a year-long trip to the Far East that focused principally on Korea and Japan, and may have also been planned in order to include spending time with his younger brother, the Reverend Milton Jack of the Presbyterian Foreign Ministry, who had long been stationed in Taiwan.
In addition to collecting seeds and herbarium specimens, Jack returned with images, many in a format especially useful for teaching purposes—lantern slides. Covering some of the ground that Arboretum plant explorer Ernest Henry Wilson would later visit, Jack photographed the forest preserves in Japan, as well as the forests of Taiwan and Korea.

178 images (1905)
Born in Chateauguay, Quebec, Canada on April 15, 1861, John George Jack was one of twelve children of Robert and Annie Jack. Robert Jack (1821-1900) was a farmer and fruit grower who, for over 40 years, introduced and experimented with varieties of fruit new to the Province of Quebec. Annie Linda Jack (1839-1912), a poet, author, and a noted horticulturist, wrote a series of newspaper articles entitled "Garden Talks" and authored The Canadian Garden: A Pocket Help for the Amateur (1903).
As a boy, J. G. Jack was interested in natural history with a special attraction to insects. Self taught with a minimum of private instruction, his formal education included only approximately six months of high school. Through his observations and collections he was introduced to a variety of correspondents including Sir John William Dawson, the Principal of McGill University (1855-1893) who helped establish the Peter Redpath Museum of Natural History and who became Jack's friend and mentor. Jack became a member of the American Association for the advancement of Science in 1882 where he made contacts that eventually led to employment at the Arnold Arboretum. Beginning in 1882 and continuing for the next three years, Jack spent the winter months in Boston attending lectures given by Harvard professors including Dr. Hermann August Hagen (1817-1893), a professor of entomology and author of Bibliotheca Entomologia, published in 1862-63. He also studied zoolology with Professor Alpheus Hyatt and attended lectures on botany given by Professor by George Goodale. In 1883, Jack spent the summer working in River Edge, New Jersey, on the 80-acre farm of Elbert Sillick Carman (1836-?), editor-in-chief of The Rural New Yorker (1878-1964), where Carmen had been conducting experiments on plants since 1877.
In April 1886, Jack visited Arboretum director Charles Sprague Sargent (1841-1927) at his Brookline estate, Holm Lea. Promised only manual labor at small compensation, he began working at the Arnold Arboretum. Within a short time his botanical knowledge became apparent, earning Sargent's confidence and an increase in pay to a dollar a day. Jack continued his education by taking a Harvard Summer Course in botany and attending various lectures. By the terms of the Arboretum's original indenture, the director, as the Arnold Professor of Botany, was to teach the knowledge of trees at the College. With the approval of the trustees, Sargent delegated this function to Jack, who became Lecturer in Arboriculture in 1890 (the title was later changed to Lecturer in Forestry). Jack taught forestry at Harvard, often with the first director of the Harvard Forest Richard T. Fisher (1876-1934), and also at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he held a lectureship from 1899 to 1908. In 1907, Jack married Cerise Emily Agnes Carmen (?-1935), daughter of his former employer, E. S. Carmen, and in 1908 he was made an Assistant Professor of Dendrology at the Arnold Arboretum.
Jack taught throughout his career. In the fall and spring he conducted courses in dendrology using the Arboretum's living collections as his classroom. Jack's courses were geared toward the layperson and his amicable disposition made his classes popular. According to Sargent's annual report for 1890/91, Jack "gave twice a week during the months of May and June instruction to a class of twenty-six men and women who paid a small fee for the privilege. His lessons, which treated of the plants, in their botanical, economic, and ornamental aspects, were practical and interesting." He was also regular contributor to the Arboretum's Bulletin of Popular Information, and produced over 100 citations in Garden and Forest
Soon after Jack joined the Arboretum, he began collecting and documenting plants in the United States and abroad. During the summers of 1898 and 1900, Jack was an agent for the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. He explored the forests of central Colorado and the Big Horn Mountains of Wyoming and produced detailed documentation and photographs of the forest and soil conditions of the Pikes Peak, Plum Creek, and South Platte Forest Reserves. In 1891, he visited botanic gardens in France, Germany, Italy, Denmark, and England, and he and Arboretum taxonomist Alfred Rehder collected plant specimens and took photographs in the western United States and in Canada in 1904.
Already experienced in plant exploration when he embarked on a year-long trip to the Far East in 1905, Jack became the first staff member after Sargent to visit Asia. He focused his travels on Korea and Japan, as political unrest at the time made travel in mainland China dangerous. Although Sargent's Annual Report for the Year Ending July 31, 1905, states that "Mr. J. G. Jack has started on a journey to the East to obtain material for the Arboretum in Japan, Korea, and northern China," his year long Asian journey was self-financed. Jack may have planned his trip to spend time with his younger brother, the Reverend Milton Jack of the Presbyterian Foreign Ministry, who had long been stationed in Taiwan. Jack's introduction to an undated, unpublished manuscript entitled "Notes on Some Recently Introduced Trees and Shrubs" outlined his goals and itinerary for the Asian trip:
On the first of July, 1905, I left Boston for Japan . . . the object of my trip was primarily rest and recreation for three or four months, combined with a desire to observe some of the interesting arborescent flora of central and northeastern Japan . . . a short visit was also made to Korea and to Peking in China.
In addition to collecting seeds and herbarium specimens representing 258 plants, Jack took photographs of individual specimens and landscape views. He returned with 172 images, many of them lantern slides, a format especially useful in his teaching. Jack photographed the forest preserves and activities of the lumbering industry around Mt. Fuji and elsewhere in Japan, as well as scenes he captured in Beijing that include formal portraits of people in traditional costumes.
Jack retired from full-time employment at the Arboretum in September 1935 at age 74. His wife Cerise died later that same year. Jack spent retirement at his home "Folly Farm," in East Walpole, Massachusetts, with his daughter, Betty Jack Wirth and her husband. In 1948, while tending his orchard, Jack fell and broke his hip and was confined to bed. The following year on May 20, John George Jack, Arnold Arboretum Assistant Professor of Dendrology, Emeritus, died at age 88.
The John George Jack (1861-1949) papers, 1887-1990 finding aid is available on our website.

Everybody loves quickpages when you are in need of some quick digiscrapping! Here's a great way to build up your library of quickpages! So, not sure what this thing is all about??? It's quite simple, create a quick page with Verena Karolyi's Romantic Summer Breeze Kit (which is currently on sale at 20% off) and you'll receive an album back full of quick pages made by each of the participants. Check out our Quickpage Exchange Gallery to see what the participants have created.
Each participant will submit at least 1 quick page but not more than 2 using this kit only. At the end of this exchange, all participants will receive all submitted quick pages including a special one created by Amy herself.
- Layouts should be created and saved at 12" x 12" and 300ppi.
- If you are familiar with creating a quick page in a transparent .png file, please submit it in that format.
- If you are not, we have a couple of tutorials to help you in this area: Paint Shop Pro & Photoshop
- If you are unable to create a .png file, please design your quick page by creating your layout and using a white or black area (whichever is of most contrast to your layout) for the photo placements. Save your layout as a flattened .jpg file at full resolution (unless you are submitting a png file already) . I will take what you submit and punch out the areas for photos and convert them to transparent .png files before sending them all back to the participants.
- Please name your files as follows to help me track these easier. YourForumName_KitName_QP.png so as an example, mine would be HollyS_romanticsummarbreeze_QP.png.
- Save a preview of your quick page at 600x600 and upload it to the Quick Page Exchange Gallery for all the oooohs and ahhhs!
- I will need the preview .jpg at 600x600, and either the .png or .jpg file at the full 12x12 size sent to me. You may use any file sharing site of your choice, or you can zip it up and email me the zip at firstname.lastname@example.com.
- Sign-ups are required for this so that we know who is working on pages.
- You may submit up to 2 quickpages for this challenge.
- I will keep this post updated to reflect participants and whether files have been received.
- The submission deadline for this round is end of the day on Wednesday, September 12th. Please be sure to send me the files by that time as well.

An orthopedic pillow is a pillow designed to correct body positioning in bed or while lying in any other surface. Its design conforms to orthopedic guidelines to ensure the right placement and support of one or more specific parts of the body to provide safe and healthy rest to the sleeper. Orthopedic pillows are engineered specifically to contour to your neck and head, maintaining a smooth and even support. Choosing a pillow will be up to you as size, firmness, and contour will all depend on your sleeping habits and body shape.
If you are a restless sleeper and find yourself moving around throughout the night, you may want a longer pillow. Those that sleep on their side or belly will want to address these attributes when seeking the right pillow for them.
Memory Plus Foam Contour Pillow By layering premium memory foam over a therapeutic foam base, we have found the perfect orthopedic pillow for individuals who need greater neck support. A resilient, precision-cut foam base offers therapeutic neck support, while the accommodating top layer conforms to your head for a soothing, customized fit. Together they offer optimal support and help restore the natural curvature of the neck during the various sleep stages, reducing neck, shoulder and back pain.
The Contour Back Max Orthopedic Wedge Pillow System is an adjustable back pain device which provides unmatched anatomical support and exceptional comfort. Comprised of three specially designed plush covered sections, each Contour Back Max Orthopedic Wedge Pillow System is completely customizable to fit the user and can be used individually or in combination to support and elevate the body. There is no other orthopaedic wedge pillow system on the market with the same quality workmanship and therapeutic benefits as the Contour Back Max.

Chicago police say they're looking for a counterfeiter, around 20 to 27 years old, who has been using phony hundred dollar bills at stores on Chicago's Near North Side.
In other Chicago neighborhoods, merchants say kids as young as four years old are showing up with phony bills. The question is whether it's happening by accident, or whether the real counterfeiters are using the kids as pawns to launder their phony bills.
Everybody knows that it's Abraham Lincoln's face on the five dollar bill, but at the Abraham Lincoln Elementary School in East Chicago Indiana, it was Benjamin Franklin's face that made some headlines last year. A first grader showed up with six fake Benjamin Franklins: counterfeit hundred dollar bills. The youngster who showed up told investigators his mother kept a bag of the counterfeits in a closet at home.
He's not the only child passing off bad bills. On Chicago's West Side and South Sides, children aged 4, 5, and 6 are showing up with the fake cash.
"That's basically the age," store owner Big Homie says. "Like they send a younger crowd, they don't send an older crowd like I used to be. So it's different now."
"It started from last December where you can see, a lot of bills, have been twenty dollars, five dollars one dollars," store owner Jeff Khan says. "Ages of 7 to 12."
They've noticed a new trend too. Most are using smaller bills now.
"Before we used to see big bills, like twenty dollars, and ten dollars," Khan says. "Recently we've come across…we see ten dollars and five dollars counterfeit."
A few years ago, they say they were seeing lots of phony hundreds. Many are produced by what's called bleaching, which uses common household cleansers to scrub the ink off of five dollar bills. Then, the paper was used to print hundred dollars bills.
The phonies could be detected by checking the watermarks. If a Ben Franklin hundred had an Abe Lincoln watermark, the bill was a bleached five dollar bill. Now, they're seeing smaller bills: ones, fives, tens, and twenties. Those are not printed on bleached bills, but with regular paper; likely on home computers. Sometimes they're easy to spot.
"The back has got two layers," Khan explains.
"If you raise it up, you cannot see this five over here inside," Ayman Salaymeh says. "If you can't see it, that's when it's fake."
But the smaller bills are bills are so common, many stores typically don't have the time to check them. They seem to be turning up in areas frequented by gangs. One owner speculated that older gang members might be doing the counterfeiting and using juveniles--the younger gang members--to launder the cash on the streets.
"A young boy comes in the store, you won't look at a younger boy, versus how you look at an older person," Big Homie says. "So, its able to get away with it more. You get what I mean?"
The Secret Service investigates counterfeiters. The agency's website says they have zero tolerance and will investigate each and every counterfeiting case.

I'm glad that you had fun at the cave. Knowing what I do about your kids, it sounded like something they would love and be really into.
But oh my god about that little girl. I saw that headline and looked right away at the story to make sure it wasn't Savana. I just hate that it was a classmate of hers though. I know that it said that they would have counselors on hand to help the kids. How awful for all those involved. And that guy, it does sound totally accidental...not like he was drunk or speeding. Such a fear of mine....we have a lot of kids in our little neighborhood and drive so carefully because I have seen them run into the street after balls or not looking near driveways while on their bikes.

Students taking courses in ethics will find themselves
confronted with some of the great questions that assail the
thinking person. Insights and theories formulated by major
philosophers of the Western and Eastern intellectual traditions are
examined and the basic skills of philosophical thought are
mastered. It is the aim of the Division of Philosophy and Religious
Studies to teach each student to philosophize. Ethics is offered as
a minor only; there is no major in ethics.
A minor in ethics consists of 18 credits. At least one course
must be a religious studies course. Students minoring in ethics
must take PHL 2100 and one course in non-Western thought from
philosophy or religious studies. The remaining 12 credits shall be
in applied ethics from either philosophy or religious studies.

Authors Live: Josh Hanagarne, The World's Strongest Librarian
The City Library celebrates the release of Josh Hanagarne's debut memoir, The World's Strongest Librarian: A Memoir of Tourette's, Faith, Strength, and the Power of Family with a lecture and public reception. Sponsored by The Library Store.
View The World's Strongest Librarian in The City Library's catalog.
ABOUT JOSH HANAGARNE (from the publisher)
Josh Hanagarne is a 6'7" giant known as "the World's Strongest Librarian." A librarian at the Salt Lake City Public Library, he battles his own case of Tourette Syndrome and works to help others. He believes in curiosity, questions, strength, and that things are never so bad they can't improve. Hanagarne's popular blog, World's Strongest Librarian, currently gets more than 80,000 visitors each month.
ABOUT THE WORLD'S STRONGEST LIBRARIAN (from the publisher)
The threads of Josh Hanagarne's life read like a series of oxymoronic punch lines: bookish strongman, noisy librarian, agnostic Mormon, self-effacing giant. Hanagarne, a life-long Tourette Syndrome sufferer, developed strength, resilience and a life-affirming sense of humor in the face of overwhelming challenges. In THE WORLD'S STRONGEST LIBRARIAN: A Memoir of Tourette's, Faith, Strength, and the Power of Family (Gotham, May 2013, Hardcover, eBook), Josh offers a humorous and moving account of his battle with Tourette's, his love affair with books, his attempt to navigate his tenuous Mormon faith, and his revelatory and healing venture into weight-lifting.
Hanagarne, now thirty-five, first began experiencing symptoms of Tourette's at the age of six. One of his earliest memories was of a seizure that sent him crashing into a brick wall as he played tag in the school playground:
I'd been a happy little airplane, soaring above the clouds. Now there was a kamikaze pilot in the cockpit of my skull, scowling at the horizon, trying to find a battleship to crash into.
For the next thirty years, Josh wrestled with that kamikaze pilot, whom he eventually nicknamed "Misty," short for "Miss T." The Tourette's symptoms--verbal and facial tics, body spasms, self-inflicted punches--increased and intensified as he grew older. Moments of calm were few and far between. Hanagarne describes in riveting detail what a Tourette's attack feels like:
Misty put my left hand in front of the blade. I didn't tap it this time; I actually put it in the blade's path. The blade was dull—-I don't think it would have sliced my fingers off. But it certainly would have broken them. I watched all of this in horror, from a great distance, even though I was participating. Nobody outside knew that anything was wrong inside the bunker.
But I couldn't keep my hand still. Even when I sat on it, there was an undeniable urge to put my hand in harm's way. It wanted to be on the blade. It wanted to be in danger.
Fortunately, for Josh, Tourette's was not the only constant in his life. The oldest of four children in a close-knit family, he always had the encouragement and understanding of his parents. In spite of their best efforts and the good intentions of numerous doctors, however, "Misty" kept winning the battle. Josh struggled to maintain a normal life--to finish school, embark on his Mormon mission, have a relationship, keep a job. But in his mid-twenties, Josh ended up at his parents' house, depressed, helpless, and twitchy as ever. Finally, Josh's father nudged him off the couch and to the gym, where he discovered a newfound measure of control over his mind and body:
I tested a few dumbbells and settled on a pair of 45 pounders. I could only manage a couple of consecutive overhead presses before I got wobbly and pulled out of alignment. I felt silly. But as I began to fatigue, the other people faded. Just me and my body. My stupid, thin, Benedict Arnold of a body. I could focus on getting the movements "right" or I could worry about everyone else. I focused on the details.
Weight-lifting became Josh's most reliable refuge and changed him both physically and emotionally. It gave him the confidence to return to school, but Misty refused to retreat. Finally, at his mother's urging, Josh turned to the most successful medical treatment he would attempt--"freezing" his vocal chords with Botox, suppressing his verbal tics but also reducing his voice to a whisper for three years. Although it didn't eliminate his tics or the desire to scream, Botox allowed Josh to be in public without drawing attention to himself, and to pursue a relationship without being self-conscious. During this phase, Josh met his future wife: a loving, patient woman who shared his absurd sense of humor. Once married, he finished school and set his sights on filling in the missing details of his life—finding work that he loved and becoming a father.
A fanatical book-lover and reader since childhood, Josh had been going to libraries regularly since infancy. One day, on a whim, he walked into the Salt Lake Public Library.
Announcing himself to the staff with a Tourettic "Woo!" he requested an application, and was offered a job checking out books. It became the start of a career that continues to sustain and fascinate him.
As he became more serious about strongman training (now he can perform feats such as rolling up a frying pan and tearing a phonebook in half), Josh started a blog about his training and dealing with Tourette's that connected him to a larger world of weight-lifters, strongmen and trainers. It, in turn, led him to the man who would finally bring him some hope of relief from Tourette's--Adam T. Glass. An autistic former Air Force sergeant and prison guard, Adam became Josh's lifting guru, and ultimately helped Josh learn to "throttle" his tics into submission through controlling his breathing. After months of practicing his new technique, Josh achieved his first goal: "Sixty seconds of perfect, beautiful stillness." One minute turned into two, two minutes into an hour, and unbelievably, an hour into months and then a year.
Readers of The World's Strongest Librarian will find inspiration in Josh's resilience and humor in his candor, and will find themselves rooting for the success of this unconventional hero.

More notes from the last few weeks on some pretty great wines.
2011 Franck Balthazar Côtes du Rhône
Decided to try this on the very strong recommendation of Zachary Ross, who as usual is right on the mark. Incredibly vibrant, pure red and dark fruit with a seasoning of freshly cracked black pepper, floral notes and more low toned meaty elements. Very pure and so easy to drink right now, with barely any perceptible tannin and a bright acid spine keeping it very refreshing.
1985 R. López de Heredia Rioja Gran Reserva Viña Tondonia
Totally seamless. So fragrant, polished and elegant with gentle red fruits, earth, leather and higher toned floral notes all coming together harmoniously on the nose and palate. Stunningly balanced with a silken texture, bright acids keeping it very fresh and impressive length. A real treat, thanks Gene.
1981 Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande
Classic PLL aromatics; green herbal and forestal notes, pure red and dark fruits, graphite and dusty earthy and cedary notes all coming together into a fantastic scent. This is drinking superbly now with tannins completely integrated and a lovely polished texture; I can't imagine it getting any better.
1982 Gonzalez-Byass Jerez-Xérès-Sherry Apóstoles Palo Cortado Muy Viejo 30 Años
One of the highlights from a sherry dinner that (the good) Jay Miller organized some time ago at PDH. Bottle #106. This has one of the most vividly smoky fragrances I've ever come across, to the point that it almost smells (and looks) like an Islay single malt. Remarkably complex with layers of burnished, honeyed, nutty, saline and citrus fruit flavours coming together harmoniously on the palate, and really stunning length. Wow! Thanks Jay!
1988 Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande
Another great bottle of the '88. Perfumed, polished, so elegant and layered with dark fruits, graphite, cedar and that distinctive PLL green herbal/forestal seasoning all coming together seamlessly. Just a tremendous wine.
2010 Domaine Michel Niellon Chevalier-Montrachet
Incredibly primary now with such potential, but already quite a stunning wine with layers of ripe pear and orchard fruits, higher toned citrus zest flavours and a vivid stony mineral character that slowly emerges with air. The texture here is quite remarkable, glossy and polished with a sense of real breadth in the mouth and there's remarkable persistence to the flavours. A shame wines like this have to be opened so young with the premox risk, as the balance and depth here suggest this could be something quite special with time.
2008 Domaine des Lambrays Clos des Lambrays
A fantastic wine to sit down with over a few hours and follow. Initially it's a bit stemmy and the fruit's rather restrained, but with time and air it really opens out as layers of red berried fruit and plums emerge along with a savoury earthiness, with the greener/stemmy flavours integrating nicely into the background. The finesse and sense of elegance here are quite remarkable, and I'm very glad to have a couple more bottles to visit several years from now.
2011 F.X. Pichler Riesling Smaragd Loibner Steinertal
Drank this as a replacement for two corked Dauvissat Chablis I was moaning about elsewhere. Solid, but never spectacular - this just feels a bit too broad and ripe, some of the fruit flavours here are in the tropical end of the spectrum and it doesn't have that focus or clarity that I look for in great Riesling. I wouldn't be surprised if this turns into something much more impressive with time once the fruit and baby fat recedes some, but right now it's not particularly impressive and even a couple of hours of air don't help much.
1966 Château Gruaud Larose
Drinking so well now - this seems to be in that plateau of maturity with layers of red and dark fruit, cedar, leather, tobacco and pencil lead all coming together seamlessly on the nose and palate. The structure's fully integrated here and there's a sense of real polish and grace to the flavours. An absolutely stunning bottle.
1991 Noël Verset Cornas
Funky, sweaty, leathery and showing a bit of VA, but still very enjoyable. Beneath all the funk and leather there's a core of rich black olive and red fruited flavours and a savoury, saline finish. Very nice.
1993 Gentaz-Dervieux Côte-Rôtie Cuvée Réservée Côte Brune
Glorious aromatics, a spectrum of meaty, bloody, leathery, earthy and higher toned herbal notes all coming together into a beautiful scent. There's a wonderful sense of purity to the red fruit and olive notes beneath, such elegance on the palate with the flavours and structure coming together harmoniously into a whole, and amazing balance. This seems at peak now, I can't imagine it getting better but what a fantastic bottle.
1924 Huët Vouvray Moelleux Le Haut-Lieu
There's a gentle but persistent spritz in this that suggests this bottle may have been refermenting slightly (this was a bottle recently reconditioned/topped up at the estate). Even though the spritz is a bit distracting on the palate, it's remarkable to smell - wonderful complex aromatics of honeycomb, green tea, mature wooly and caramel notes around rich Chenin fruit, and it still feels quite rich and polished. Fantastic, though I can barely imagine what a pristine, non-refermenting bottle may be like.

Viral pneumonia is inflammation (irritation and swelling) of the lungs due to infection with a virus.
See also:
Pneumonia - viral; "Walking pneumonia" - viral
Viral pneumonia
is more likely to occur in young children and older adults, because their bodies have a harder time fighting off the virus.
Viral pneumonia is most often caused by one of several viruses:
Serious viral pneumonia is more likely to happen in those with a weakened immune system, such as:
Symptoms of viral pneumonia often begin slowly and may not be severe at first.
The most common symptoms of pneumonia are:
Other symptoms include:
If your doctor or nurse thinks you have pneumonia, you will have a complete physical exam and a chest x-ray
-- especially since the physical exam may not be able to tell pneumonia from acute bronchitis or other respiratory infections.
Depending on the severity of illness, other tests may be done, including:
Antibiotics do not treat viral pneumonia. Antiviral medication only works against influenza pneumonia and some causes by the herpes family of viruses.
Treatment may also involve:
A hospital stay may be necessary to prevent dehydration
and to help with breathing if the infection is serious.
You are more likely to be admitted to the hospital if you:
However, many people can be treated at home.
You can take these steps at home:
Most cases of viral pneumonia are mild and get better without treatment within 1 - 3 weeks, but some cases are more serious and require hospitalization.
More serious infections can result in respiratory
failure, liver failure, and heart failure. Sometimes, bacterial infections occur during or just after viral pneumonia, which may lead to more serious forms of pneumonia.
Call your health care provider if symptoms of viral pneumonia develop.
Wash your hands often, especially after blowing your nose, going to the bathroom, diapering a baby, and before eating or preparing foods.
Don't smoke. Tobacco damages your lungs' ability to ward off infection.
Vaccines may help prevent pneumonia in children, the elderly, and people with diabetes, asthma, emphysema
, HIV, cancer, or other chronic conditions.
If your immune system is weak, stay away from crowds. Ask visitors who have a cold to wear a mask.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"We are having an October wedding in Salem, Ma. Our colors are black, gold, and ivory so we were looking for something to match of course. I wanted the main color to be black with gold writing and a lot of other sites didn't have this. The foil stamps really gave these invitations something extra which we loved. The artist was wonderful to work with, we went back and forth via email a couple times and they really make sure you get exactly what you want. I would definitely order from wedding paper divas again!"
"I am so excited to send these out to my family and friends. The perfect invitation for my special day. My husband to be loves them."
"We ordered this invitation and RSVP card in Almond with a solid almond back on the matte white stock, and could not be more pleased with the decision! The design is so lovely, just perfect for my daughter's outdoor garden-style wedding. It has just the right soft, vintage feel we were looking for. The paper quality is excellent, they look and feel great. The design review process is extremely helpful - our reviewer made a couple of changes that improved what we had submitted - and the turnaround was incredibly fast. The final product was exactly what we expected and were hoping for ... no complaints or disappointment whatsoever. We highly recommend this product!"
"I was torn trying to decide between all the different designs. I finally settled on this one in the darker tones for a fall wedding. They are absolutely stunning and I would highly recommend getting the pearlized feature. It gives it that extra bit of "fancy" for being a more informal invitation. The designer even helped me add my parent's names to this invitation when I thought there wouldn't be any room."
"Paper and print quality were perfectly acceptable, but not remarkably good. Design of course is beautiful, absolutely lovely, not to mention a multi-generational people-pleaser! My grandmother said it was the most beautiful wedding invitation she'd ever seen, and I'm inclined to agree. Customer service was extremely competent, prompt, and obliging, I can't say that enough. We had several changes made, and they were all completed within hours of our submitting the request."
