Orexins stimulate steroidogenic acute regulatory protein expression through multiple signaling pathways in human adrenal H295R cells
Ramanjaneya, Manjunath, Conner, Alex C., Chen, J. (Jing), Stanfield, Peter R. and Randeva, Harpal S.. (2008) Orexins stimulate steroidogenic acute regulatory protein expression through multiple signaling pathways in human adrenal H295R cells. Endocrinology, Volume 149 (Number 8). pp. 4106-4115.

Orexins mediate a variety of physiological processes, including feeding behavior, the circadian pathway, and cortisol secretion. Steroidogenesis is regulated by a variety of neuropeptides, and one of the key rate-limiting steps is cholesterol transport across the mitochondrial membrane by the steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR). StAR expression can be regulated through several different signaling pathways. Despite the clear link between orexins and steroid production, the actions of the orexin family of hormones on steroid biosynthesis are not fully understood. We present data showing that 100 nM of both orexins A and B for 4 or 24 h significantly up-regulates StAR, in H295R pluripotent adrenocortical cells. We present the dose-dependent and time-dependent characteristics of StAR up-regulation at the protein level, showing significant increases after 4 h at a relatively low agonist concentration (1 nM). We have provided a key analysis of the precise G protein-coupled signaling pathways required for the up-regulation of StAR in response to orexins A and B. This has involved dominant-negative G protein analysis, and the direct inhibition of the protein kinase A, protein kinase C, ERK1/2, and p38 pathways. This shows a fundamental role for multiple G protein-coupled and MAPK-mediated signaling pathways leading to StAR expression. Antagonist analysis also showed that orexin effects on StAR were primarily, but not exclusively, acting through the orexin receptor type 1. This is the first study linking orexin action on StAR expression and comprehensively describes the signaling pathways involved in regulating the complexity of hormone biosynthesis.

Why Beauty Matters
A woman's home is an expression of who she is. We all know that. But we women are busy, expending energy in activities that can feel shallow or pursuits that can feel futile. When we pause long enough to really think we often wonder, "does all this matter," or "am I doing what is really important?" What makes our moments meaningful? Touching the eternal or transcendent is the answer to the ordinariness of life. We at ever Thine home want to help you add that which lasts forever to your home and family. Honoring Christ at Christmas, celebrating gratitude at Thanksgiving and understanding the hope of Easter are easy beginning places, but there are many more opportunities in the annual calendar of every family.
When we invite the presence of God into our lives and our homes we intuitively sense a difference. The ordinary becomes alive, it is infused with purpose because He is there.
Welcome to Ever Thine Home.
May you and yours become ever His.
The Story
Behind the Story
In June of 2011 as I was beginning a six week daily regimen of radiation treatments to ensure no malignant cells remained after surgery removed a very small breast cancer tumor, I formally invited my new friend Carrie, to begin working with me on what has now become Ever Thine Home.
I had watched Carrie's creative work from a distance, admiring amazing wedding invitations and Christmas cards, creative fliers and webpages; finally I mustered the courage to ask her to join me. But we'd never met in person. Ours was an 'I'd heard of her, she'd heard of me' acquaintance. Our last face to face interaction was when she was a student in the sixth grade Sunday school class my husband and I taught! Now she was a married thirty something without children and I an empty nester. After the first meeting we sensed our partnership was a match made in heaven. From day one I knew she was the one, though I wondered how long she'd stick with this older woman's dream. Gratefully she hasn't given up on me and like my daughters Carrie keeps me young.
Before I continue this story a small detour is in order. When my first two children were very young and my husband Dennis and I had just started a tiny ministry to help marriages and families, now widely known as FamilyLife, I made a decision to put away my art supplies and delay the development of my artistic interests until my children were much older. The decision was mine alone and was prompted by my own impatience with my little ones when they interrupted mommy's artistic endeavors. It was not pretty. My impatience was actually quite ugly and selfish and I knew my children were more important than growing my mustard seed talent. So for the sake of the more important canvases God had given me to paint and influence, I boxed up all my art supplies and put them on the shelf and told God that day, "I don't know why you gave me artistic interests and ability if I can't develop it, but I do know you gave me these two children (four more followed) and shaping them is more important than growing my own talents. I give my art to you today and if you want to give it back to me some day that is Your business not mine. I will trust your timing and give thanks even if I never get it back."
To be sure I did not stop being a creative or artistic person, but I expressed that side of my God-given genetics in other ways that didn't demand the focus of my previous part time art career. I channeled that drive into sewing, quilting, smocking, painting rooms and furniture, helping my kids with their art and science fair projects, creating garden spaces in our wooded two acre plot of earth, designing lots of print projects for my kids' schools, and helping my husband with his writing and other creative endeavors. My priorities changed that day, not my creative wiring. I chose to serve my husband and children instead of my own interests, hoping that some day my turn would come.
When my youngest was a sophomore in high school God opened the door to the world of art for me once again. Beginning lessons that year felt like a banquet after a long famine. Now I could be fully engaged with no guilt and no regrets.
During my twenty year sabbatical from art I would often search for beautiful meaningful ways to express my faith at home, but I found little. I also looked for ways to teach my children the great truths of the Bible that were deeper than kid storybooks; again nothing. And last I wished for something to make a statement of who we belonged to in our home. Something beautiful, intriguing and elegant like a piece of art that had to be studied to be understood. Sadly there has been a parting of ways between art and biblical truth since the days of grand cathedrals and renaissance art. What was once woven tightly has unraveled.
Today I am truly amazed at what God has birthed through Ever Thine Home in these two short years. And Carrie and I have marveled at how well our partnership has worked, how alike we are in our thinking, tastes and even sleep patterns! Her eye for design has taken my ideas to a level I could not have achieved on my own.
The story behind the story is God knows what He is doing. His timetable is impeccable. Beautiful design married to eternal truth is a winning combination. And we are having a great time.

Fire crews responded to the scene of a fire that broke Thursday morning at McBrite Manor in Saginaw Township.
The senior living center is at 2825 Wieneke Rd., just south of Shattuck Road.
Officials were forced to evacuate the building but people have been allowed back inside at this time. Some residents have been forced to relocate because of damage sustained to their apartments. About 80 seniors live at the center.
Multiple fire departments responded to the scene. It is believed the fire started in the north end hallway of the building inside of a bird cage. Fire officials believe the cause of the blaze could be electrical.
"We had approximately 40 firefighters on scene that assisted with that evacuation too, so things went very, very well," said Saginaw Township Fire Chief Jim Peterson.
Officials said most of the damage to the building is smoke-related. No one was injured or taken to the hospital.
WNEM will continue to follow this story and provide more information as it becomes available.

If we didnt know better, wed suspect that someone had appointed SLO City Councilman Dan Carpenter to be arbiter of the citys special election. Consider:
First, he chastised the SLO Democratic Central Committee for having the temerity to make an endorsement in a nonpartisan race: Shame on them for thinking their inconsequential endorsement will have any effect on the well-educated and informed electorate here in our community, he harrumphed in a letter to the editor.
Then, he called on candidate Carlyn Christianson (the candidate endorsed by the SLO Democratic Central Committee and full disclosure The Tribune) to resign her volunteer seat on a task force thats helping to update the citys land use and circulation plans.
If thats not enough, he also suggested the council consider prohibiting all task force members from running for public office to avoid conflicts of interest. (We see a couple of problems with that: For one, the city attorney said it would violate city code. And for another, Carpenter served on advisory bodies the city Planning Commission and the Cultural Heritage Committee during his campaigns for council.)
Carpenter has been an effective city councilman, but where this election is concerned, hes been a self-righteous scold.
Of course, he has the First Amendment right to speak his mind, as he reminded Mayor Jan Marx this week. But he seems to forget that others, including the SLO Democratic Central Committee and Carlyn Christianson, have that same right. To help him remember, we elect to send him a brickbat.
Carpenter is right about one thing, though: We do have well-educated and informed voters who are perfectly capable of judging whether its proper for a partisan group to make an endorsement, or for a task force member to run for office.
Stay safe fire season is here
Its only May, and already wildland firefighters have been hard at work in California. Last week, nearly 2,000 mobilized to battle a huge blaze in Ventura County one of three major fires in the state that were burning at the same time. Luckily, a spate of cool weather helped bring those fires under control, but as the summer heats up, we wont be able to count on that. If youre planning a trip to the backcountry or if youre lucky enough to live there nows a good time to review fire safety tips; http://www.readyforwildfire.org is a place to start.
Were keeping fire-safe bouquets on ice in the hope that well all do our part to make it through the season safely.
Flowers for benefit fashion show
Phyllis Musical Revue and Fashion Show raised nearly $174,000 for the Womens Shelter Program of San Luis Obispo County this year a 15 percent increase over 2012.

ILIndoor Top 35: Mike Grimes #28
You know who Mike Grimes is, right? Sure you do. He's the guy who came into the 2011 National Lacrosse League season with 11 goals in 4 seasons. Yeah, not too impressive. But when you're a defender, scoring goals isn't your job. Your job is to prevent them and you know that going in. Over the course of at least the last 2 seasons, Grimes is among the elite defensemen in the NLL and beyond. At 6-3, 220 pounds, he's an imposing force and he knows how to use every bit of that force to his advantage, and his in-your-face style is a big reason he was named ILIndoor.com's Defender of the Year last season. The biggest reason, though? He just gets the job done.
Stealth coaches have long known Grimes had the talent and athleticism to excel in the back end. But it took some time to mold that talent and the patience is paying off for Washington. The former first-round draft pick (No. 6 overall for Arizona in 2006) brings his Peterborough attitude to every game and anyone who dares challenge Grimes will pay the price, whether they beat him for a goal or not.
His level of play in 2011 was an extension of the fantastic WLA summer he had in Langley, where he was the 2010 Defender of the Year. And this past summer, he was a key part of a defense that powered the Thunder to their first appearance in the Mann Cup, where they lost to Brampton. There's a trend here for teams with Grimes on the roster, and it's a winning trend. First Mann Cup for Langley? The Stealth in back-to-back Champions' Cup games? The constant here is Grimes and the bonus for the Stealth is that Grimes along the way has discovered an offensive touch.
Remember those 11 goals we mentioned? That was his total coming into the last NLL season but in 2011, he matched his career total with 11 in the single season. Throw in 10 assists for a total of 21 points and it's not only a career-best, it makes him the highest-scoring defender in the NLL. All this scoring won't go to his head, either. With 103 loose balls in 2011 and 93 the year before, he's consistently among the team leaders in that all-important but underrated stat. And in the new category of forced turnovers, Grimes ranked No. 2 with 27, just behind Brodie Merrill's league-leading 30.
Throw it all into one big mixing pot and what you end up with is one of the best defenders in the game today who also just happens to know what to do in the offensive end. It's a combination that can't go wrong.

Former Dover music teacher facing child porn charge dies
No cause of death was given. Robertson formerly lived in Greenland and Eliot, Maine, but his obituary said he was a resident of Barrington.
The former St. Thomas Aquinas music teacher was arrested in January on child pornography charges, the result of a federal investigation into a foreign movie production company that sold DVDs and streaming videos of young boys engaged in sexually explicit acts.
The business sold its illegal movies and photos over the web, had a shipping facility in New York State, and maintained a customer database, according to investigators.
The customer information eventually led Greenland police and U.S. Postal Inspectors on Jan. 31 to Robertson's home, then in Greenland.
Robertson was charged by Greenland police with seven counts of possession of child sexual abuse images after a search warrant was executed at his home.
He was a music teacher from 2002 to 2008 at St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Dover.
In 2009, Robertson was acquitted of misdemeanor charges alleging he groped the genitals of a former student while swimming out behind his house.
He was prosecuted at two separate trials in Strafford County. After the verdict, Robertson filed to have his record annulled and applied for a teaching position as recently as last summer in Massachusetts, according to prosecutors.
In his obituary, Robertson is described as a loving husband, son, and brother. He was born in Portsmouth, raised in Greenland and graduated from Portsmouth High School. He earned a bachelor's degree in agronomy form the University of New Hampshire and took graduate courses toward a master's in music education.
According to the obituary, he taught music in several communities, including Barrington, Laconia, Allenstown, Epsom an Dover, and was an excellent musician (percussionist) and had a wonderful tenor voice. He was active in several musical groups.
Raised in Greenland, Robertson graduated Portsmouth High School, and went on to teach music in several communities, including Barrington, Laconia, Dover, Allenstown, and Epsom.
He also had his own landscaping business, which was primarily a summer occupation.

Practical Leadership
There are as many different kinds of leadership styles in EMS as there are kinds of EMS agencies.
There are as many different kinds of leadership styles in EMS as there are kinds of EMS agencies. Some of these are more effective than others and some are downright counterproductive. One could argue that, historically, there has been a lack of formal management education in this profession, which could be at the root of many leadership problems. But the issue of ineffective leadership is neither unique to EMS, nor necessarily absent in leaders who have that education. It's a problem endemic to the position itself, whatever the organization or industry.
Mistakes that Guarantee Failure
There are a variety of factors that make one leader succeed at managing an effective organization and another fail. Many are practical in nature and not related to any particular aspect of management theory. Often changing a few simple approaches can make all the difference. The following is a list of common mistakes compiled by J.K. Van Fleet that managers make in their day-to-day functions:1
1. Failing to stay abreast of developments in the field and limiting yourself to your own specialty area.
Every leader is guilty to some extent of focusing on an area of particular interest, such as hazmat, mass casualty, clinical, human resources or another aspect of EMS operations. This bias can lead to limited function in relation to the department's mission. While specialization can be a good thing, it must be utilized in service to your organization's overall success.
2. Refusing to seek higher responsibility or to take responsibility for your own actions.
No one is perfect. Many managers think their employees should never see a mistake made. A common misconception is that employees will lose respect for you if they see you as less than perfect. This is simply not true. Everyone knows their supervisors are not perfect, and expects them to make mistakes. How you handle these mistakes is the key to your success or failure.
3. Failing to make sure that assignments are understood, supervised and accomplished.
Good communication is paramount to any organization's success. Communicate often with those involved in a project to ensure that assignments are understood and completed subject to your initial expectations. Follow-up does not equal micromanagement when done appropriately.
4. Refusing to assess your own performance and abilities realistically.
In order to improve in any position, a good leader periodically steps back and assesses his own performance. An honest, critical assessment helps you identify your weaknesses and strengths, allowing you to improve by making continuous adjustments.
5. Using your position for personal gain, or failing to tell the truth.
There is no such thing as a little white lie. Failing to tell the truth tends to build upon itself. Dishonesty is the surest way to end a promising career.
6. Not setting a positive personal example for subordinates.
It's easy to speak of rules of operation and conduct, but harder when managers don't follow them in situations that are unfavorable to them. This sets a bad tone and a negative example that others will emulate.
7. Trying to be liked rather than respected.
No leader is going to be liked by everyone. However, even those who do not like you can respect hard decisions if made in the best interest of all parties involved.
8. Emphasizing rules rather than skill.
The employees know the rules. Good leaders realize this and empower their employees to develop critical thinking and decision-making skills within the context of those rules. This makes for a more efficient and productive employee in the end.
9. Failing to keep criticism constructive.
When it's time to criticize, it's also time to teach. Every mistake made is an opportunity for everyone involved to learn and make improvements. Positive criticism evokes a positive learning environment, turning the manager's input into a tool for the employee to become more productive for the organization.
10. Not attending to employee gripes and complaints.

Biofuels: 10 years from now
Martin Keller, the newly named associate lab director for energy and environment at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, was asked in a recent issue of ORNL Review what changes the American consumer will see in the use and availability of biofuels over the next 10 years.
Here's what he said:
"I would say we absolutely will have the technology to establish a sustainable biofuels industry in 10 years. There is no longer any doubt; it will happen. The more precise question is whether as a nation we want to do it. If we choose to have a viable biofuels industry 10 years from now, there are a number of policy issues that must be addressed quickly. Which biomass crops will we use? Where will we plant them? Are farmers ready to make the transition to biomass? Where will the bioprocessing plants be sited?
"In the next 10 years, we will be capable of producing several blendable biofuels that can go into our standard fuel system. We will also have the option of planting a variety of different biomass crops, as well as producing a range of products, like carbon fiber, from bioprocessing byproducts. Will all this happen in 10 years? It could. If we keep on the path and retain our commitment to biofuels as an altnernative to imported oil, then this is the future we are moving toward."

The Daily Star
---- — COOPERSTOWN — As owner and operator of the Otsego Manor, Otsego County is facing millions of dollars in liabilities over and above the $5.5 million public subsidy the nursing home will receive this year, officials disclosed Wednesday.
The county has no money set aside to pay for long-term liabilities incurred as the result of its operation of the Manor, said Russell Bachman, the county's acting treasurer.
"I don't think the public understands that the liabilities are what is going to hurt us," Bachman said.
In 2011, a financial statement prepared for the county by accounting firm Bryans & Gramuglia showed the total loss from operations at the Manor that year alone stood at more than $8.3 million. That figure includes depreciation of $1.3 million per year. The county has created no reserve to cover depreciation, but one should be included in the true cost of operating the nursing home, Bachman emphasized.
Bachman also revealed that concerns about how the county has been funding the Manor have prompted the agency that determines the county's credit rating, Moody's Investors Service, to initiate a "surveillance audit" of the county's books, Bachman said.
If that leads to a reduction in the county's rating — AA3, which is defined as high quality — the county could end up paying higher interest rates on its debts, Bachman explained.
"The basic question Moody's is asking is: are you going to get reimbursed for funds you are putting into Otsego Manor?" Bachman said. The answer to that question, he added, is "no."
One reason the county's Manor subsidy has grown is the regional pricing scheme the state uses to determine Medicaid reimbursement rates, Bachman said.
Because wage and benefit costs for Manor employees are significantly above the median wages and benefits at other facilities in the region, the state has lowered the Medicaid reimbursement rate for Manor patients, adding to the county's expense for caring for those patients.
For instance, a certified nursing assistant at the Manor typically earns between $14.49 and $16.88 per hour, with an average benefit cost of $7.63 per hour. In the region, the average pay for nursing assistants ranges from $10.85 to $13.06 per hour, with a benefit cost of $3.41 an hour.
In 2009, the Medicaid daily reimbursement rate for a patient at the Manor stood at $195. That figure has dropped to $189.87 for 2013, he said.
The lower rate transfers into a revenue reduction amounting to hundreds of thousands of dollars for the Manor, said Bachman, who is substituting for County Treasurer Daniel Crowell during the latter's six-month military deployment.
Bachman also noted the county, which is self-insured, has no control over worker compensation costs arising from job-related injuries. That liability went from $590,523 in 2010 to $1,010,543 in 2011, and there is no way to predict what the trend will be in future years.
He also said intergovernmental transfer monies from the state to help pay for public nursing homes is far from a predictable stream of revenue. The county had budgeted $3.2 million in intergovernmental money for 2012. But it ended up receiving only $2.3 million, leaving the Manor with a significant shortage that had to be made up by the county, Bachman said.
In addition, the county is facing substantial obligations for health care costs for its employes, a sum that is projected to rise between 8 percent and 9 percent per year. Meanwhile, wages are projected to rise about 2.5 percent per year, he noted.
In response to questions from The Daily Star, Bachman said the county's entire biweekly payroll for all workers amounts to $996,239. Of that, $330,112 — or about one-third — is paid to Manor employees, he said.
It's important to not just consider what the county is putting into the Manor in cash, but what the total liability is, since the county will be on the hook for that cost expense until it is finally paid.
County officials have not yet decided how to market the Manor. One potential option is for the county board to create a local development corporation, which would manage the sale of the facility. The county board has retained Shawn Griffin, of law firm Harris Beach, to advise the panel on its options.
"Almost everybody on this board is more interested in doing what's right than in getting re-elected," said Rep. Kay Stuligross, D-Oneonta, the chairwoman of the Manor Committee and a self-described reluctant advocate for selling the facility to a private operator.
A grassroots group calling itself Save the Manor has argued privatizing the facility will lead to a reduction in the quality of care, and will hasten the exit of experienced Manor workers who will not accept significant wage and benefit reductions.
The Manor Committee and Manor administrator Edmond Marchi are scheduled to begin a series of three public informational meetings on selling the Manor at 1:30 p.m. Saturday at the American Legion hall in Worcester.

Title: Finding AngelAuthor: Jan GrahamPublisher: Siren-BookStrand Publishing, Inc.Genre: BDSM/Contemporary/SuspensePublication date: November 2011ISBN: 1-619260-80-8Pages: 412Series: Wylde Shore, Book 1Reviewer: Victoria
Angel Wylde hasn't had an easy life thus far by anyone's standards. Having been cruelly treated by her father and siblings, she strikes out on her own at a tender age, trying to carve a life for herself. She's a magnet for mayhem and destruction given her penchant for kinky sex and her low self-esteem. Being under the thumb of her sadistic hit-man boyfriend is no picnic so when he meets a grisly death, Angel feels as if she could be free again. When she meets Christian and Daniel Shore at a BDSM club, she feels a tingle go up and down her spine. Will Angel find love and redemption in the arms of the Shore brothers?
Jan Graham's Finding Angel is not your ordinary BDSM novel. Be prepared for a thought-provoking plot with some shady characters which will leave you wondering about the cruelty of man long after you turn the final page. Ms. Graham writes one hell of a romantic suspense novel in Finding Angel, deftly incorporating kink into its plot. From its opening pages, one thing is definitely certain—Angel Wylde is a survivor. My heart broke to learn how Angel has had such an awful life and feels she isn't worthy of love. Having had the only person she loved ripped from her life at a tender age, she's had to eke out an existence, first with her family and then with one bad choice after another with the men in her life.
When the current man in her life dies under unusual circumstances, Angel is aware he held many of the Mob's secrets, secrets the head boss feels Angel was privy to. As Angel tears down the house during the day in search of evidence to save her hide, she wants to taste a little bit of freedom she was deprived of for so long at night. Getting dressed up in fetish wear, she travels to the red-light district in search of some action. Going into The Dungeon, she hopes to be able to flirt and get excited just from being once more into the scene.
Angel never thought she'd attract not one but two men that night, the wonderfully hunky Christian and Daniel Shore. As soon as they meet their Angel, Christian and Daniel know she's meant to be in their lives forever. Blaming themselves when she slips out of their sight that evening, when their paths cross once more, the Shore men are determined to make Angel their treasured submissive.
Figuring she'd stay with Christian and Daniel and then leave when things with the Mob cooled down, Angel cannot believe their generosity. While Angel gets down and dirty engaging in some blistering D/s scenes with both brothers, deep down she feels unworthy of these pure men's love. Who could blame her for feeling this way given her checkered past?
When most men would pick up and leave from the situation, Christian and Daniel showed great depth of character by not running away from this difficult situation. They show tender support, so that Angel feels comfortable enough to open up, divulging her appalling past. Absolutely horrified by all their woman has been through, both men resolve to be there for Angel and help her heal.
Showing us a bit of Australia I was unaware existed, Ms. Graham gives us multi-dimensional flawed characters in Finding Angel deserving redemption. I loved how Angel finally found peace and refuge in Christian and Daniel's arms, coming to the realization she's worthy of love.

If your dog eats poop, you're likely to be content at how easily this trouble may be solved. Animals usually see situations from a different viewpoint from people. Which is the reason why it is so vital to make certain you understand the motives for this actions.
Folks may look at a pile of dog crap as something to be removed, while dogs see it as a sample of history. The amazing sense of smell describes with reference to what pet is repsonsible for this waste as well as the food they had.
So, how does this express the basis that they dine on their own feces? The factors are pretty straightforward and we'll converse concerning the reasons below.
One of the chief explanations is a lack of attention from their owner. The same as with a little child, if a pet is not receiving adequate attention, they will select bad actions to get more attention even if it's not the attention they pine for. Think concerning the way you act in response when your dog eats poop. Don't you pay react to this? Naturally, the answer is that you face the puppy and yell loudly. The puppy doesn't wish to be screamed at anymore than you may wish for them to engage in this foul activity, nonetheless negative attention is still attention which beats nothing.
The easy solution to this reason is to spend a couple of extra moments with your dog every day. You don't need to make a huge time commitment and you will discover that your puppy appreciates each additional minute and will reward you with improved behaviour.
Certainly, there can be more than one cause for Coprophagia, but you will find most often that this boils down to only 1.
An additional reason for this disgusting activity has to do with actions they saw their biological mother doing when they were small. A mothers instinct all throughout the animal kindgdom is to maintain as clean an area as is possible. That is the reason why a mommy dog eats poop when the puppies are quite young, so that they can be as healthy as possible.
The dog leaves her/ his mess on the floor and the mother's reaction is to discard the poop. The only way she really can do this is to consume it. Like any other offspring, the animal will imitate the activities of their mothers and fathers. Their influential years are when this style of behavior could begin to develop and develop into a lifelong behavior.
Another reason why a dog eats poop is related to the puppy food. In particular with wet food, poop may keep hold of a lot of the fragrance of their puppy chow and may lure the pup to finish the food. Transitioning to dry dog chow is a good way to mend this practice, however always keep an eye out and make certain you pick up after the dog at once to remove the compulsion from their brain.
If you've tried hard to change their manners but keep failing, one final tactic is to use a food component. Sometimes called Coprophagia pills, it is added to the pet chow without modifying the taste of the chow. After ingestion, the powder mixes with stomach juices and makes the waste smell repulsive to the pup.
If you are interested in reading more regarding the roots of your dog's behaviour, be certain to swing by dog eats poop and grass. Also you can check out dog eats cat poop for more info on this matter.

The huge silicon deposits in silicon valley are down to diatoms. Silicon valley was once covered by an ocean rich with diatoms. They died and there hard coats fell to the sea bottom, where they became the silicon deposits that are there today since the sea level dropped.

Agate Bottle Stopper
Many wines get better with age, and the same is true for this wine stopper. Made of a thin slice of Brazilian agate, which is a natural quartz formation that develops within a host rock, the luminous bands of color display the many years of development.

Socrates said that a life unexamined was not worth living, but sometimes life is going so well that you could forgive one for just going with the flow. But life will catch up with you in time, as it did for Rich Robinson. Before he was 25, he had fame as the guitar player for the Black Crowes, fortune, a beautiful wife and home; seemingly, he had it all. But in the blink of an eye, much of it was gone. How he managed to make it through with graciousness and his sense of self-intact is examined on his new solo album, Through A Crooked Sun (Circle Sound/Thirty Tigers- Release date: October 11, 2011).
The Black Crowes are still a vibrant, relevant entity, an experience he shares with his longtime bandmates, including his brother Chris. To refresh their individual energies, the band has gone on more frequent hiatuses, which has allowed Rich to explore musical ideas that might not fit the band dynamic, and also continue to hone his skills as a terrific visual artist.
Through A Crooked Sun finds the musical gifts that have propelled a major career fully intact, but joined this time by a more sentient, holistic outlook: that of a father, a son, a husband, a spiritual being, a musician, fully integrated and more comfortable than ever in his body, mind and soul.
Rich Robinson Website
On Dylan LeBlanc's debut album, Paupers Field, a lost world is brought to life - both in the carefully sculpted songs and rich well of country soul from which those songs emerge. Rough Trade is excited to have released Dylan's album on August 24th, 2010. Dylan's worn yearning voice already has the mark of aged experience. Neither the feel nor sound of the album, nor the haunted ghost summoning songs he has written, can be faked. Heritage springs up everywhere on Paupers Field.
His songs - ominously dark yet tenderly appraising emotions to find light and balm - don't just open up a world and his personal feelings and experience, they provide their creator with a valuable lifeline. He is not the sort of performer to shout about his arrival or proclaim his talent from the rooftops. Nonetheless, the seamlessly organic and selfproduced Paupers Field presents a fully formed total artist and this record speaks for itself. LeBlanc's is a voice from the present connected to the past, one sure to outlast passing trends and fads. Soul deep.

E-mail Outage Update:
Thursday morning
Faculty, staff and students,
Restoring our old email system reminds me of herding cats. Just when you think you have one or two corralled they slip through your fingers. The same is true for problems we are having restoring the old e-mail system. There is a huge amount of data on the old system that must be restored and verified. Even though we actively purged old accounts from this server, there are literally tens of thousands of e-mail files that have been accumulating since early 2000 when this system was installed. This system is backed up nightly to tape.
While we were restoring this data from the tape backup, another hard drive out of the 16 drive array, began reporting some errors. Rather than risk further problems, we plugged in a replacement drive from our spares pool. This did not stop the restore process, but did seriously impact the speed of the operation as the new drive was initialized. This is the first time in the system's eight year history that a full restore from backup has been necessary.
To those where I created the hope of having the system up Wednesday afternoon, I sincerely apologize. That was our best guess at the time. This drive replacement set us back so our data restore ended around 9:30 Wednesday evening. Then we began the process of indexing or verifying all the e-mail accounts and the associated e-mails for each account. We did not want to bring the system up and then have you experience potential issues with getting your e-mail archives. To give you a perception of e-mail volume, as of Wednesday afternoon we are holding on a temporary server over 75,000 messages that have been received over a 12 hour period. These messages will be delivered once the old system comes back online. Faculty and staff on the new Exchange system should be receiving e-mail notices that their messages are waiting to be delivered if sent to someone on the old system. Otherwise, these faculty and staff should see normal e-mail operation. Students who are testing our new student e-mail system are not impacted by this outage.
There are currently over 9,000 e-mail accounts on the old e-mail system. We hoped the verify process would go smoothly. However, starting at 10:30 p.m., the system processed about 2400 accounts in 4 1/2 hours. As of 3 a.m. Thursday morning, at the current rate this process will take approximately 15 hours. Again, just like herding cats we are searching for ways to speed up the verification. We also are looking for alternative ways to provide you e-mail services until the system is restored to full operation. This may mean rolling out the new BraveMail to all students. Our concern on BraveMail is that we have seen some very random login errors that have yet to be fully resolved to our satisfaction. These are so random in nature that we hope Microsoft's infrastructure and our local login process are now working hand-in-hand.
Thank you for your understanding and patience. It is a difficult time for us all as we so depend upon our technology. We will get this fixed and we will, with our new Exchange system for faculty and staff and BraveMail for students, have a reliable and sustainable e-mail infrastructure.
Bob Orr

Ioan Gruffudd and British Acting (a good thing!)
Ok so I went and saw the movie last night with my Boyfriend (I made it a goal to actually WATCH the movie this time) and I enjoyed it. When I first heard about the flick... I was interested... but I wasn't jumping up and down about it like I did with last years "Pirates" or "Peter Pan" (yea I know... I am wierd). But when I heard that Ioan Gruffudd was playing the beloved Lancelot... I did get a little excited. I dont know how many people in this forum are from the UK and US... but I am from the US. And out here... the name Ioan Gruffurdd is a very unknown. However, my father and I have been watching this little mini series called "Horatio Hornblower" on A&E for about 5 years now, in which Gruffudd plays the leading role. When I discoved this... I ran to all my friends and told him how amazing he was! Well, even though the film was just so-so, Ioan stood out above them all! He completely looks, sounds, feels, and acts the part better than any actor I know! I have come to the realization that British actors carry stronger appreciation for there craft than most in the states. I hope to see Ioan and Knightly in another film together. (I think they would've had better chemistry than her and Arthur!)
I am one of the few people who not only thought Ioan did a great job in King Arthur, but I thought he did the best. But yeah before this I never heard of him. Hopefully he will become more recognized.
im british the brititsh rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lipgloss you won't be warned again, if you continue to spam with off topic remarks then a temporary forum wide ban will be given. Heed my warning
sorry please dont ban me
I've been a fan of Ioan Gruffud since Warriors.
Hornblower myself...but still...knew the name before KA defo. Still think Clive Owen is the dog's bollocks though (not seen KA yet but everything else I've seen him in he's been awesome). British talent getting more and more recognition...excellent.
Ioan Gruffud was in Titanic, the fella who saved Rose form the water. That's when I first noticed him, even in that little part. Then I saw a few Horatio Hornblowers. He's got talent. I like the guy. I was excited when I saw he was in KA. Can't wait to see it.
I loved Hornblower! My dad and I are die hard fans!!! Am I the only one who thinks that Ioan and Keira would've had awsome chemistry... if KA were to do the whole love triangle story?
''Come About!!!'' Was that the right line? and ''Be careful, don't hit them''.
Yeah, thats cool. Oh, so it is him. OK I like him now.

The Wright Type(face)
- The Wright Type
- I designed my first typeface. My inspiration was one of my favorite architects: Frank Lloyd Wright. For this project it was more than just creating a typeface, I was enjoying the blend of my two passions-architecture and graphic design. By using my passions as inspiration, it was easy to design, ideas just seemed to flow.
My font is characterized by black lines and shapes coming together to form a letter. I specifically looked at his furniture and stained glass window designs. Everything he makes has a certain look and feel. The Wright Type encompasses his style.
I even made myself a name tag which I wore to my previous bakery job. I have also applied my name tag to corporate clean-cut job attire (see below) and a general retail/restaurant job attire. My font is functional.

"Our girls came out and followed up the Metcalfe County win with another impressive effort," said Lady Laker coach Craig Pippen.
"Our defensive intensity was good for the most part."
Russell County shot 39 percent from the field for the game and limited the Lady Eagles to just 26 percent shooting on the night.
The Lady Lakers had three players in double figures, led by senior Kim Pierce's 16 points. Both Junior Lindsay Ramage and freshman Regan Helm poured in 12 points each.
Freshman LeeAnn Grider tallied nine points while senior Rachael Miller added eight points.
Also scoring for Russell County was Blair Hoover with five points, Julie Wethington with four points and both Amanda Cooper and Ally Harris with three points each.
"We turned the ball over 10 times and forced Campbellsville into committing 22 turnovers," Pippen said.
"We also improved at the free throw line by knocking down 20 out of 24 attempts. Those two stats our crucial for our success this year." Pippen said.
Pierce shot the ball extremely well, hitting four 3-pointers on the night and putting up her 16 points.
"That is a promising sign," he said.
"We really need Kim to shoot the ball well and turn in some big defensive games for us down the stretch."
Ramage also played well and had another double-double with her 12 points and12 rebounds).
"Lindsay continues to prove she has arrived as one of the better power forwards in our region," Pippen said.
"She has really focused on playing tougher for us and with more intensity and physicality."
He also lauded Regan Helm as she came off the bench and played extremely well, scoring a dozen points and handing out four assists).
She hit two threes and made a lot of nice passes, Pippen said.
"Regan has improved a lot this year and I am very pleased with her work ethic and team attitude," he said.
"Many times a player who has had to wait for their turn to play can develop a 'sorry for myself' attitude or even listen to negative remarks from others, but not Regan. She is a team player. She continues to stay focused on what her role is and she keeps stepping up, making plays and making our team better. I am extremely proud of her."
Russell County has a big district game this Friday night against Cumberland County at Laker Gym.
"We have some improvements and adjustments to make before we play but I do like where our team is at this point of the season," Pippen said.
