Since the Tea Party is such an amorphous group with no political center of gravity, it's hard to get your arms around how much support Gov. Rick Snyder had the first time he ran.It's unlikely that the anti-tax types plunked for the angriest Mayor in America, but we'll never know if many of them simply refused to vote for the tough nerd?Well actually one such vote can be documented.Joan Fabiano of Lansing reveals she didn't vote because she was not sure about candidate Rick Snyder and now three years later she is sure she was right. She looks at his record on the bridge to Canada, the senior pension tax, his so far ill-fated efforts to raise revenue for the roads, and his mad dash to insure 300,000 uninsured in the Medicaid system, and she does not cotton to what she sees.Hence Ms. Fabiano and 24 of her closest friends penned an open letter to the governor denouncing him for not being one of them and then this political shot at the man Ms. Fabiano calls "a little too liberal.""Conservatives should not help this Governor get reelected."It's dicey to gauge the impact of this letter since we don't know if the 25 represent thousands of others in the Tea Party or just themselves, but either way the popular wisdom is this hurts the incumbent.Or is it?Actually you could make a strong case that by blasting him, as they did, they have inadvertently helped him to win next year.Don't turn to the sports section yet, this is not as far-fetched as you might think.You may have noticed that the governor's image of the wanna-be and kinda moderate Republican has been tarnished. Independent and moderate women are taking a second look at him, but now that the Tea Party folks have abandoned ship Snyder, those women may take a more measured second look.They could be thinking, "Geez, if the Tea Party doesn't like him, maybe he's not half as bad as we think he is."The "Dear Governor" letter also gives himself the chance to toot his own horn about how he is independent from those groups that might disagree with him.A Snyder supporter could argue, when the Tea Party took him on, he stood tall, did what he thought was right and did not worry about the impact his decisions might have on his own reelection thus proving he is not a career politician which is why many citizens voted for him in the first place. In other words the Tea folks could be playing right into his hand.Of course until this reverse-jujitsu notion is tested in the next poll, it is only a theory but one you can not reject out of hand.Only 34% of the citizens in Michigan admire what the Tea Party has done to the state. The means the bulk of you are not going to reject this governor because they don't like him. Having said that, you must credit the movement with having some firepower in the legislature where they pretty much have Republicans at their beck and call.Squeamish legislative Republicans are likely familiar with this threat: Do what we want or you might have a Tea Party primary opponent.Instead of getting some backbone and telling them to "Bring it on," some, but not all, have caved to the power that may or may not be there.The governor, via his media mouthpiece, is standing up and shows no sign of reversing course just because they don't like it.For those who wonder how powerful this movement is, we'll know the answer if they some how knock-off the incumbent. Any bets?

Spro Aruku Shad - $6.49 to $8.89
Designed to do things no other lipless crankbait can, the Spro Aruku Shad is uniquely made to lock on to the bottom in a nose down position during the retrieve - making it look like an actual feeding shad moving along the bottom. Specifically designed for fishing thru aquatic vegetation, it's nose-down action makes it one of the most weedless lipless crankbaits on the market. Life-like finishes, including etched scale patterns and 3D eyes add to the Aruku Shad's realistic presentation, and its super loud rattle garners additional attention. Great for bedding bass as well as other fresh and saltwater game fish, the Spro Aruku Shad features sticky sharp Gamakatsu hooks and is also available in several effective color patterns to match the forage in your local waters.
|Aruku Shad 65
|Aruku Shad 75
|Aruku Shad 85
|1 oz.
Comments: Very effective trap style bait. They have a much harder thump than most other lipless cranks out there. Seems to work better the slower its retrieved. My only negative on this bait is when its ripped free from grass it tends to do an extreme nosedive (almost front flip) that at times causes the stock back hook to snag the line. I fixed this by changing out the rear hook to a larger size. Overall a very good big fish lipless crank.
From: Hydrilla: Lake Seminole, FL 3/25/14
Comments: I'm always stocked a few baits deep of the Perch and Blue Shiner colors. Just a great lipless crankbait.
From: John: NY
Comments: i can go behind other anglers in the spring and catch bass , i've done this year more than others the new Aruka 65 is the deal, the sound that it makes is way different from all the other ones out there..
From: Jim: Guntersville AL
Comments: the only thing missing on these guys are those crazy eyes. awesome lure. bought one and caught fish with it the first day
From: Sai
Comments: My favorite lipless cranks of all time. I've fished these next to Luckycraft LV500s and they produce just as good for less than half the price. I have most of the colors offered but Magic shad seems like the only color I need.
From: maxZmus: San Diego, CA
Comments: Great bait besides the fact the paint chips off fairly easy, switched the stock hooks out with mustad kvd triple grips 2x's. Good bait though
From: Austin: Central Florida
Comments: Normally use this bait for bass fishing but had the opportunity to try it on snook and it performed flawlessly and we caught several snook up to 15lbs. Am a firm believer and will be purchasing many more of these baits in the future. They work equally well on the bass on the lakes here in florida. Thank you Spro for a truly fine bait.
From: Glenn
Comments: just awesome! was out the other day and just killed them - 62 degree water and they just smashed this thing. tons of bass and pike and one 40" muskie. i was catching 1-3lb largemouth from the back of my boat casting to the same exact spots that my buddies just casted to. we all were burning rattle baits. my gold one is no longer gold - just silver and some transparent spots - it still outfished the XR75, 1 knocker, rattle trap, and rattlin rap. the guys fishing those tied one of my arukus on and they instantly started catching fish. theres something about the aruku shad that fish just cant ignore
Comments: This is a very good bait and it is reasonably priced. It has a little larger profile than most 1/2 oz. traps and comes through rock very well.
From: Lou: NJ
Comments: Just threw the chrome blue 75 for the first time tonight and all I can say is, "wow". Flatsided cranks are one of my number one confidence baits. I have close to a hundred of them. This bait (tonight at least) out-fished 9 other baits, even my redeye and my Xr75 that had been the best bait of late. I fished for less than 2 hours and caught around 25 bass on the Aruku......may be my new favorite.
From: Jeff: Rocky Mt, MO
Comments: First time out not a ton of fish, (that kind of day), but it did bring in a three pounder (scale weighed, not "guesstimated"). Come cooler waters this thing is going to rock. Conditions- Clear blue skies, good breeze, temp about 85 (September in south FL). Casts far, swims true, runs clean..
From: Craig: Sunrise, FL
Comments: all i have to say is wow!wild shiner is great for clear water lakes that bass are somewhat lathargic and lake were the prime food source is shad good job spro
Comments: I'm pretty new to lipless baits, but the Aruku 75 in Wild Shiner flat out catches fish in my waters. Plus, it casts like a cruise missle downwind or upwind. Definitely my go-to lure when the white caps are out. My only gripe is that the hooks on this thing (like many cranks) have a tendency to majorly foul hook the fish, but I guess that just goes with the territory. Highly recommended!!!
From: G: Boston, MA
Comments: This is my go to confidence search bait. I think I have tried 80 percent of lipless cranks on the market and this one has stuck more fish for me than any other. Great color selection, however some of the paint does chip a bit quick. I have a box full of these and have caught countless smallies on them. Less than seven bucks the best lipless crank on the market in my opinion.
From: Mark: Spokane, WA
Comments: This is a great crankbait. I use the 75 and it casts like a bullet. It has a wobble and shake like no other bait in it's class. The only thing you need to do is change the rear hook to #4 mustad treble and you'll be set. I like the wild shiner and chrome blue best of all. I can't say enough about the price and the quality either. Grab you 8 and you'll get free shipping from Tackle Warehouse and they are 50 cents a bait cheaper than anyone else in the country. Try them, you will not be disappointed.
From: William: Hohenwald, TN
Comments: One of the best (three) lipless on the market. Can't say enough good stuff about it. First, it has a great action at any speed - fast, medium, slow and slower. It even flutters on a straight-up rise. It doesn't plane to one side when dropping straight down. Burn it or jig it, it has action. If you like to yo-yo, this bait will nose-stand on the bottom with its butt pointing up. By the way, all these attributes apply to the Jackall T/N70 and Yo Zuri Hardcore Drum, which are both as good as the Spro.
From: Rowland: Newport News, VA

(FOX 11 / CNS) Desirae Macias ... the 7-year-old girl who was shot in the head in a car-to-car shooting in Palmdale early Wednesday morning has died. According to a broadcast report, Desirae was taken off life support late last night shortly before midnight.
Three men have been arrested in the case. 22-year-old Jesus Peralta of Palmdale, 19-year-old Carlos Peralta of Palmdale and 20-year-old Eduardo Diaz of Little Rock.
Each one is being held in lieu of 1 million dollars bail.
From Gina Silva:
7 year old Desirae Macias died late last night. The LA Coroner says they were notified of her death at 11:48 pm.
Her body is still at Children's Hospital Los Angeles because her family would like to donate the little girl's organs. She was on life support for nearly two days after being shot in the head. On Wednesday Doctors declared her brain dead. The family considered taking her off life support but changed their mind hoping and praying she might recover. Last night, shortly before midnight, she was taken off life support and died.
It was on Wednesday around 12:48am when Desiray was shot in the head while sitting in the back seat of her family car. Her mother's boyfriend got into an argument with several men at a gas station. That argument led to the shooting. The men chased after the family, shooting at their car several times. Desirae Macias was struck in the head. She was the only one injured. Three suspects believed to be gang members were arrested and charged with attempted murder.
They are identified as two brothers from Palmdale, 22 year old Jesus Peralta, 19 year old Carlos Peralta and 20 year old Eduardo Diaz, from Little Rock. All three were charged with attempted murder. Now that Desirae Macias has died, the charge will be upgraded to murder.
All three men are being held on a million dollar bail.
(earlier story updates below)
(FOX 11) Desirae Macias' family is heartbroken, as the 7 year old clings to life. Neighbors and friends brought flowers and candles to show support.
Desirae Macias was shot in the head early Wednesday morning, and she is on life support. Her mom took a photo of Desirae in the hospital. Desiree's mother is asking for prayers for the little girl.
Family members describe Desirae was a happy and healthy child. Originally Desirae's family was going to take her off life support Wednesday evening, because doctors declared her brain dead. But then the family got a very small ray of hope.
"Tomorrow if her blood pressure is ok, it's even, they're going to study her brain to see if it's at least functioning a little bit… It's hard, just devastating, it's a desperate situation," said Rosa Galvin, Desirae's aunt.
The tests doctors want to perform on little Desirae Thursday morning are dangerous and her aunt says they require disconnecting Desirae from the machines that are keeping her alive, so there's a chance the 7 year old may not even survive the tests. But if she does, her mother will await the test results before deciding whether or not to keep her on life support.
(FOX 11 / CNS) A dispute that started at a Mobil station in Palmdale today ended with a 7-year-old girl shot, a sheriff's lieutenant said.
The car-to-car shooting happened near Sunburst and Stratford drives, shortly after two groups exchanged words at the Mobil station at Pear Blossom Highway and Fort Tejon Road about 12:30 a.m., according to sheriff's Lt. Glenn Brandon.
Los Angeles County paramedics, who airlifted the girl to a hospital, said she was in critical condition.
Sheriff's deputies said one group followed the other away from the Mobil, and shots were fired at several locations, Brandon said.
A a sheriff's deputy later stopped a vehicle matching that of the shooter's, and three men were arrested in a felony stop, he said. The names of the suspects were withheld pending booking. The wounded girl's name was unavailable.
Brandon said detectives found evidence at at least three shooting scenes, and shells were found at 57th Street and East Avenue S. Evidence also was being collected near Regency Place and Essex Drive, he said.
Anyone with more information was asked to call sheriff's deputies at (661) 272-2400. Tipsters can also call L.A. Crimestoppers at (800) 222-TIPs.
All tips can be made anonymously.
Three suspects have been arrested in the shooting of a 7 year old girl in Palmdale.
An argument at a gas station led to the shooting. LA County Sheriff's Deputies say at about 12:38 on Wednesday, the family of 7 year old Desiree Macias got into an argument with three suspects in another car. When the family left the gas station they were followed by the suspects.
As the family drove home in the City of Palmdale, multiple gunshots rang out from the suspects vehicle towards the family's small car. The suspects chased the family through a residential neighborhood firing several more times.
The family headed home when they thought they lost the suspects. That's when they realized their 7 year old girl, Desirae Macias had been shot in the head. They called for help and she was rushed to a nearby hospital. Macias is listed in extremely critical condition.
A short time after the shooting, a sheriff's deputy was patrolling the surrounding neighborhood and saw a car matching the description of the suspects vehicle. A felony traffic stop was conducted by deputies and three suspects were detained without incident. All three suspects were booked at Palmdale Sheriff's Station for Attempted Murder.

Mirror's Edge Aims to Sell 3 MillionMartin Frain, the marketing director for DICE, thinks the studio's upcoming Mirror's Edge will break three million copies sold.
"I would look for world-wide sales of over 3 million, on three platforms, as a conservative number," Frain told Edge. He added, "I think it has the potential to do a lot more than that."
Frain based his prediction on the significant hype the game is garnering along with its unique image. "You look at a screenshot of Mirror's Edge, and you know what it is," he remarked.
However, Frain concedes that predictions can't be so concrete when entering a new genre of gameplay. Mirror's Edge is the first known parkour-inspired, first-person platforming action game. In Frain's words, "It's not like we can model it on shooter games--it's not a shooter game."
Mirror's Edge will start its fiesta of sales on November 11 on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, with a PC release following later.

If you have knee pain, this fix is for you! The solution may be in your hips!
According to an article in Family Circle, the solution may not
involve your knees at all—it's in the hips! Personal Trainer Gregory Florez
says one of the reasons women are prone to knee injuries is that their hips are
wider than their knees, which puts extra pressure on them. So, strengthening
the muscles around the hips can help!
Here's an easy routine Florez recommends for you to do once a week: 5 reps on each leg doing a single leg squat, 5 reps of donkey kicks with a twist, and 10 reps of leg circle
Single Leg Squat: 5 reps on each leg
Donkey Kicks with a Twist: 5 reps each
Leg Circles: 10 reps on each leg

Pulmonary Embolism
Pulmonary embolism is sudden blockage of blood flow in an artery in the lung. The blockage (an embolus) can be caused by a blood clot, tumor, amniotic fluid, or fat in the artery.
Blood clots in the deep veins of the leg are the most common cause of pulmonary embolism. A clot may break loose from a deep vein in the leg and travel to a pulmonary artery in the lung, where it can block blood flow.
Pulmonary embolism can be a very serious condition that can result in death. Symptoms of a pulmonary embolus include:
Pulmonary embolism is treated in the hospital with monitoring, oxygen, and anticoagulants to prevent more blood clots.

How will future generations (should they cast their minds back to the early 21st century) imagine our lives, our choices, our cities, and our reality?

At the College of Education and Human Development
The National Collaborative for Hazing Research and Prevention is pleased to announce the release of the Initial Findings of the National Study of Student Hazing: Examining and Transforming Campus Hazing Cultures. Hazing In View full report
This investigation is the most comprehensive study of hazing to date and includes survey responses from more than 11,000 undergraduate students at 53 colleges and universities in different regions of the U.S. and interviews with more than 300 students and staff at 18 of these campuses.
What is hazing?
Hazing is any activity expected of someone joining or participating in a group that humiliates, degrades, abuses, or endangers them regardless of a person's willingness to participate.
Led by University of Maine researchers Elizabeth Allan and Mary Madden, the study is supported by more than 30 Project Partners. The North American Interfraternal Foundation (NIF) was a key sponsor, arranging for the participation of the other partners including the NCAA.
Through the vision and efforts of many, this study fills a major gap in the research and extends the breadth and depth of knowledge and understanding about hazing. Ten initial findings are described in the report, Hazing in View: College Students at Risk (PDF) and include:

Yesterday I made fun of some of the people who read the JSOnline and just a few minutes later I got a sternly worded letter from my good friend Brewers Baby who was pissed off at me for stealing his thunder. "Making fun of the twats that read the Journal Suckinel is MY territory MPD," he said. I realized that he was correct and now turn the site over to him.
|The good news is I will never have to play with the kids of these toolboxes. Why? Because who in their right mind would bang these losers. I thought Cervecerros day was for Latinos, not D&D nerds. There is no chance that these guys don't jerk off to The Guild.

GREEN BAY, WI (WSAU) - The Green Bay Packers advanced in the playoffs with a 24-10 victory over the visiting Minnesota Vikings Saturday night.
The Packers benefited from having all of their primary receivers available except Donald Driver, and by having Charles Woodson back in the defense after a nine week absence. Woodson said the difference between last week's meeting with the Vikings and this game was, "This week, we made the tackles. That was the difference."
The Packers defense held Vikings running back Adrian Petersen to 99 yards, and second string quarterback Joe Webb had a good first drive but was not very effective the rest of the game.
Aaron Rodgers was 23 out of 33 in passing for 274 yards and one touchdown with no interceptions. Rodgers complimented the Green Bay defense and said offensively, they still have things to work on before the San Francisco 49ers game next Saturday night.
In the Packers win, Rodgers set an NFL playoffs record by throwing to ten different receivers during the game.

mIKE-rOSCOPE vol 23 issue 08
by Mike Bernacchi, Professor of Marketing, University of Detroit
-- The AUTO PLUS category (autos, auto related products & services) has ALWAYS been a star player in the lineup of SB ads.
Bernice Kanner (The SB of Advertising, 2004) recalls that such star brands as Dodge, Ford, Goodyear and Plymouth were part of SB I's starting team.
SB I (1967) was telecast by both CBS AND NBC as they competed by ad rate differentials and for viewership #s. SB XLVII (2013) will be one of the AUTO PLUS' biggest SBs.
It literally will be wall to wall AUTO PLUS ads. Catch this with your SB sticky gloves, Hyundai will be KICKOFF SHOW's sponsor and, therefore, it will have the most treasured benefit-cost position of ALL SB advertisers.
This is so b/c while America anxiously waits for the game's start and b-4 the 1st "in game" SB ad appears here comes Hyundai with a SB ad± (w/o having to pay premium SB ad prices).
The game will feature at last count 9 AUTO BRANDS plus Cars.com. The POST GAME SHOW will be sponsored by Toyota and while we can find NO evidence of a Toyota MVP mobile being gifted, there WILL BE some kind of a vehicle given by someone. Finally, it has been rumored that Beyoncé (SB 2013's ½ time main performer) will be given a Corvette (inautonews.com, in its NAIAS issue).
This has significance b/c GM has made a bit of a media splash by telling all that it will NOT be a SB advertiser after being the games #3 ad spender over the last 10 yrs (Kantar) yet getting SB media attention. Not a bad pub gig if you can get it? Now, to the AUTO PLUS group and their SB ads.
Audi – ONE 60 sec spot, the first ad break after the kickoff. This yr's ad lets the consumers pick the final ending of the commercial from 3 different choices (They voted on 3 versions from 12 PM to 12 PM on Fri, Jan 25th). The winning ad will run on YouTube b-4 the game. According to its CEO, Mr Keogh, SB 2013's ad will NOT be as humorous as SB 2012's, but rather a tribute to Audi's brand (brandchannel).
Cars.com – ONE 30 sec spot. The teaser makes promises that SB 2013's ad won't be as surprising as last year's strange "singing-talking 2nd headed" ad. It was NOT liked by all viewers.
Chrysler – From Eminem to Clint Eastwood, from Made in Detroit to Halftime in America, this auto maker has strongly tied itself to Detroit. We shall wager that the ad will be at least another ONE MIN ad. Chrysler has done a good job keeping its SB ad mystery (windsorstar.com).
Fiat – ONE 30 sec spot. Fiat released 5 commercials during the LA Auto Show and 1 of those 5 comm'ls will be a SB 2013 ad. Expectations include the Fiat 500 model and, perhaps even the Abarth version?
GM – GM has announced that it will NOT have an "in game" SB 2013 ad b/c they are overpriced. We know, however, that GM will have a Pre Game SB ad. We, also, know that it has recently become a Manchester United sponsor. Man U is the most valuable sports team in the world ($3 B± according to Forbes). From football to "futbol"? (Perhaps, GM could not afford SB freight this year. This may even be more true if [as it is the rumored] that there is really a Beyoncé Corvette gift. If when added to GM'$ Pre G ad AND Man U's $pon$or$hip may spell HELP! Did we mention that GM is very interested in a global imprint these days?)
Hyundai's – 2, 30 sec spots, feature Santa Fe & Genesis R-Spec. According to Mrtg VP, Steve Shannon, its SB ads will be tailored to the Hyundai brand (autoblog). Currently, Hyundai has announced that there will be 5 ads during SB 2013 (including 4 all-new spots. 2 of them are placed in the pre-game show & 2 in the game, I4UNews). "Epic PlayDate." "Team," "Stuck," "Excited," "Don't Tell" are their themes (supercommericals.org). These ads relate to stories of heroes while relaying road tales of the reliability, memorability and enjoyment (I4UNEWS) of their Hyundais.
Kia – ONE 30 sec spot ad for its compact, Forte (3rd Q) & ONE 60 sec (4th Q) for the Sorento. This yr's storyline will be "Parental Challenge" (Edmunds.com). The Kia Sorento has been the brand's best-selling auto for last 3 yrs. Kia's first teaser ad "Tight Space" has already made a "jaw-dropping" appearance. We shall look forward to its SB ad.
Lincoln (Ford) – The Lincoln Car Co will air ONE 60-sec (for $8 M±) spot during the game. Lincoln just finished a 60-sec road-trip ad through San Fernando Valley (adweek). The ad features Jimmy Fallon with ½ the ad coming from Tweets (I4U news). Lincoln is trying to recover from a bad 2012 sales year. Will it adtract viewers thx to its road-trip experiences message? (USAToday) The key question is will the Lincoln auto ad do better at the SB than the Lincoln flick (worldwide box of $181 M, [boxofficemojo]) does at the Oscars? STAY TUNED! STAY TUNED!!
Mercedes-Benz – ONE 60 sec spot ad in the 4th Q. This year, M Benz will have one of the SB's most anticipated commercials. Super Model Kate Upton (and maybe rapper Usher) will celebritize this SB ad. It will feature its new auto Super Model, CLA, with a surprising price to attract younger adults. The automaker has released teasers that imply "smashing and hot" will happen. As a brand bonus for Mercedes the SB is being played in the Mercedes-Benz Super Dome this year.
Toyota – ONE 60 sec spot in the 1st Q. It is "Big Bang Theory" time! Currently, its 2 teasers feature actress Kaley Cuoco, a RAV 4 genie, who makes everyone's wishes come true ("wish granted", autoguide.com, eonline.com). The auto giant, is also, sponsoring the SB Postgame. (What will your wish be?)
VW – In 2011 the Darth Vader ad was Ad Meter's #3 ad (the highest rated auto ad, EVER). This year VW is trying to re-create its brand image (Forbes). Together with its owners and fans, it is using the social media to share individual VW road experiences (I4U news). However, VW's release of its game day commercial "Get in, Get Happy" has received much pre-game buzzzz (businessinsider). The ad has been called racist. While it is likely to do poorly in most ad evals, its pre g pub is amazing. What is it, that they say about receiving bad publicity?
Pre-Game – It wouldn't be the Super Bowl without a SUPER L-O-N-G pre-game show. Pre-game coverage ready starts at noon on CBS with sponsors for each hour, Pepsi at noon, GEICO at 1, Kraft at 2, Century 21 at 3, Pizza Hut at 4, Mercedes-Benz from 5-5:30, and Disney's "The Lone Ranger" 5:30-6. NOW, it's time for the "Kickoff Show" sponsored by Hyundai. By sponsoring the KICKOFF SHOW Hyundai will get the aforementioned much coveted spot just before the SB starts.
Halftime – This yr's SB ½ show is being sponsored by Pepsi. Beyoncé will be its main performer. A Pepsi ad will also show 50 pics of fans b-4 her performing (bleacherreport.com). These fans were selected from an incalculable # of pics submitted to the ½time.pepsi.com. (Did we mention about the Beyoncé mobile?)
Postgame – The SB "POSTGAME SHOW" will be sponsored by Toyota. In years past the SB MVP has received a car from GM (usually a Cadillac). No info has been released yet, about the MVP award this year. Will it be a Toyota mobile or will it be an unpublished brand. Don't bet on it!
Postgame Program – Indeed, we now know that the selection of the postgame program is a BIG DEAL as it has become one of best rated TV shows of the year. CBS' selection is "Elementary" a new show of Sherlock Holmes origin. Watch for those Nielsen Numbers, Sherlock!

Surprisingly short dog lives in US States. Are you sure? Down here in Europe any vet will tell you that the average dog age is 15 ys, but I met dogs that have 18+years and still living.

My dog Terra lived to be 17 years and 2 months old. She was a Banfield client for about 8 years and lived in 3 states, the longest time in CA (8 years). Where/how would she fit into the calculations?

First of all I love The Bark Magazine! Now, I live in East Texas and have a rescue who happens to be 16 years old. His name is Trevor and he is in good health for his age. However with age comes loss of hearing, diminishing eyesight as well as arthritis in his hind quarters. We still go for walks even though they are shorter than years earlier and he has a healthy appetite too. In my opinion it depends on the dogs history (which in Trevor's case I don't know) and perhaps eating habits etc. He was a country dog for ten years and now lives in the city. He is such a good boy!

Week 33 and the pains are popping up more and more. I think I freaked Josh out a little last night. He was in the kitchen cutting up Mia's dinner and I was sitting at the table when all of a sudden I gasped and yelled "ouch!" Followed by a few deep breaths. I had a very strong sharp pain in my lower abdomen. It stuck around for a few minutes before finally subsiding. I've been having Braxton hicks contractions more and more often and this pain was not like that.
At this point in my pregnancy with a belly the size of mine I expect aches and pains. Specifically hip and back pain, and of course sore muscles in my belly. All this is normal. My discomfort will continue to grow the closer I get to meeting my baby girls and I know that. When the babies drop that's when I'll really start feeling the pain.
One of the pains I commonly feel lately is what people refer to as "lightning crotch." Pleasant isn't it? If you haven't experienced it before it's like a quick stabbing pain through your cervix. What usually causes it is the baby moving and pushing his or her head onto your cervix or perhaps kicking it. It may be a quick sharp pain, but it will stop you in your tracks. Don't worry though it doesn't mean you're in labor and it's perfectly normal.
I have also been feeling some light cramping. This is something I should talk to my doctor about. I have another ultrasound coming up next week so that will give us a look at how the babies are doing. We really want these girls to stay in here for a few more weeks.
We have to make it at least 2 weeks to be able to deliver at Ministry Saint Michael's Hospital in Stevens Point otherwise we have to go to Ministry Saint Joseph's in Marshfield because that's where the NICU is. We really don't want our babies to be in NICU at all or even need an extended stay at the hospital so the longer they stay in and cause me discomfort the better. Our C-section is planned for October 25th (38 weeks) however our OB Dr. Keegan doesn't seem too confident that I'll make it that far. The goal is to deliver sometime between 36 and 38 weeks.
We found out that Dr. Keegan is on vacation week 37 so we made sure to make our next appointment with the new doctor, Dr. Michelle Goetter. I want to make sure I'm familiar with all the doctors in the case that one of them has to deliver our babies. I believe that when you have twins you need two OB doctors in the room anyway so even if my regular doctor is there I'd like to be familiar with the other doctor on hand.
Dr. Jamison delivered Mia and she was our last appointment before Mia was born so I'm glad I made the rounds last time. For anyone having a baby I know it's comfortable staying with your regular doctor, but I recommend at least meeting the other doctors just in case.

Squatter's beware! One homeowner on Detroit's west side is on the defense. A very clear message is plastered all over the property warning squatters to stay out.
The windows are boarded up, covered with words scribbled with red spray paint. The garage door is even covered with two giant eyes warning, "Don't let me catch you!"
But another sentence written on the garage door is getting neighbor's attention: "I will shoot you."
Many wonder if posting signs instigating gun violence is even legal. Fox 2 legal analyst Charlie Langton says as long as it's on your own property it's fine, but that's all you can do.
"If somebody is living in my house, and someone comes into my house - yes, I can shoot that person. However, if this is a vacant house, and nobody is living there, I can't just go in there to find someone and then go shoot them. No, that would be murder, simple as that," explains Langton.
Wayne County records say the house with the warnings was forfeited last month. All of the homeowner's previous phone numbers and addresses are dead ends, so for now there's no face behind the eyes watching the house.

The Program Evaluation and Research Group (PERG) was founded in 1976 at Lesley University, and is now part of Endicott College. PERG is recognized as one of the few evaluation groups in the country to have the capacity and diversity of expertise to address the broad range of projects included in our work. In addition, the group is valued by our clients and funders as a contributor to the larger effort of education reform.
The projects PERG evaluates serve learners in multiple settings in both formal (K-12 and higher education) and informal education (museums, community centers, etc.). Many of these projects bring together business partners, mathematicians and scientists, policy makers, museum staff and educators, as well as the general community. Since its founding by George Hein and Brenda Engel in 1976, the Program Evaluation and Research Group (PERG) has carried out approximately 700 program evaluations; sponsored workshops, courses, and other educational activities; and engaged in a range of foundation and government-sponsored research studies. Principal clients have included states, universities, school districts, museums and aquariums, foundations, and arts organizations implementing projects funded by agencies such as the National Science Foundation (NSF), the National Endowment for the Humanities, the U.S. Department of Education, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the Massachusetts Cultural Council, and the American Association for State and Local History.
PERG's staff and associates have expertise in the arts, sciences, and mathematics; child and adult development; organizational development; and museum studies and education. They bring to their work not only skills in assessment and evaluation, but also content knowledge appropriate to the various programs PERG evaluates.
What We Do
The Program Evaluation and Research Group offers program evaluation services for projects of all sizes in a variety of educational contexts. While this makes up the bulk of our current work, we also conduct original research, and offer professional development and consultation.
Program Evaluation and Research
PERG has conducted evaluations of a broad range of programs in professional development, science and mathematics systemic reform, curriculum development, informal education, out of school time, arts partnerships, and museum studies. The range of PERG's work provides an excellent view of the organization's capacity to meet the needs of both large and small programs in many different content areas.

Fans of the band Mumford & Sons will have to wait a little longer to see them in concert.
The English folk rock group had to postpone three upcoming shows - including Tuesday night's concert at the Gexa Energy Pavilion in Dallas - because a band member is in the hospital.
Doctors said Ted Dwane will need surgery to remove a blood clot.
A show near Houston on Wednesday and one in New Orleans was also canceled.
In a statement on the band's website, the group said, "All dates will be rescheduled and will be announced as soon as we can;
all tickets for this week's events will be honoured at their rescheduled
Mumford & Sons just won the Grammy for Album of the Year.

Today is SteveEdmunds BD. An eventful day I would say.
Don't remember the exact # (on my calendar at home), but I know it's rapidly homing
in on 3 digits. And I do know the difference in our ages, on a % basis, is narrowing down.
Do the friggin' math.
The rest of you be nice to Steve. Show some respect for your elders.
Have a great BD, Steve. I'll dredge up an EdStJ to help celebrate.
