Wilna's Scrap Space
Prepare to be jealous. Wilna's scrap space has received a makeover that will have you hitting up your local furniture/home improvement store to do the same.
If you thought it looked good before take a look at this before and after…
And more photos of what it looks like now:
Wilna said, "For years I have wanted a floor in my scrapbook room that's easy to clean (especially if I spill paint). This fall we did some home renovations and I got a maple hardwood floor, so I want to share a few pictures of my new scrapbook room. Most of the furniture is from Ikea. I think my favorite thing in the whole room is the pink crystal chandelier that we got for $60 at a local retailer. It's just that final stamp that says, "girly-girl." You can see more pictures of the room here.
Thanks for looking!

As the action is creating 20 different layers, I'd love not to click ok for every new layer. Not sure why this dialog is coming up as it doesn't when I record the action. Any ideas?

A Quick & Easy Stretching Routine
I have to confess: Even though I'm well aware of its importance, I don't stretch as often as I should. I've always been flexible, so not stretching every day didn't seem to have much of an impact on me. But over the years, and with more muscle added to my frame, I've noticed that I'm not nearly as flexible as I used to be.

The number of deaths among women due to lung cancer has dropped about 1% per year from 2003 to 2007, according to a report by the National Cancer Institute and the American Cancer Society. This is the first time the death rate from lung cancer for women has droppped in four decades; the death rate for men started declining about 10 years ago. The delay in the drop for women compared to men is due to the fact that women tend to take up smoking later in life than men, with the drop in death rates due to large number of women smokers quitting the smoking habit.
The report also note that the death rates from other types of cancers continue to fall, due to earlier detection and better treatments.
Lung cancer remains the number one cancer killer in the United States, and the best way to reduce the occurrence of lung cancer is to get more smokers to quit, and encourage nonsmokers to never start.

A Couple on EdgeIn January 2008, Dr. Oz challenged eight longtime smokers to quit their addiction with a four-step plan. In a follow-up a month later, he heard how three of them were fairing in their new smoke-free world. One of the challengers, Wendie—who had admitted smoking in the car with her 5-year-old daughter, Bailie—explained that she was experiencing some difficulty because her husband, Tony, continued to smoke.

The Kansas Governmental Ethics Commission today fined a private citizen $7,500 for speaking to the media about a complaint he filed against state Sen. Dwayne Umbarger for misuse of campaign funds.
As far as the public knows, no hearing was conducted regarding the charges against state Sen. Umbarger. The commission has never publicly addressed the complaints or even acknoledged an investigation, but several news sources in Kansas have previously reported that the Ethics Commission is no longer investigating Sen. Umbarger and no fines against the Senator are on record.
When emailed for comment, Van Meteren still had nothing to say.
I would love to talk to you about this issue, (but) my attorney advises me that until a higher legal authority lifts the gag order the Ethics Commission has imposed on me, I really can't.
Is that what our state has come to? Senators can funnel campaign cash and report such violations to the Ethics Commission, essentially proving a law violation, but as long as they amend their reports to be in compliance with the law, no action is taken.
And yet when a private citizen takes the initiative to root out corruption, wherever it may be, he is fined for his efforts by the very government commission that is supposed to be holding our politicians accountable.

Egypt faced a new phase of uncertainty on Thursday after the bloodiest day since its Arab Spring began, with hundreds of people reported killed and thousands injured as police smashed two protest camps of supporters of the deposed Islamist president. Wednesday's raids touched off day-long street violence that prompted the military-backed interim leaders to impose a state of emergency and curfew, and drew widespread condemnation from the Muslim world and the West, including the United States.

Pentagon Papers leaker Daniel Ellsberg says Bradley Manning is ``one more casualty of a horrible, wrongful war'' and he did not deserve any prison time.
Manning was sentenced to 35 years in prison Wednesday for giving troves of military and diplomatic secrets to WikiLeaks. Ellsberg told The Associated Press by telephone that Manning will always be an inspiration of civil and moral courage to truth tellers.
He called the prosecutor's demand for 60 years ``vicious,'' but said the judge's ruling was much better. Ellsberg is the defense analyst who in 1971 leaked the secret history of U.S. involvement in Vietnam to The New York Times and other newspapers. The leak led to a landmark Supreme Court ruling on the First Amendment. _____________________

Abstract | With increased public awareness of the early signs and recent American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations that all 18- and 24-month-olds be screened for autism spectrum disorders, there is an increasing need for diagnostic assessment of very young children. However, unique challenges exist in applying current diagnostic guidelines for autism spectrum disorders to children under the age of 2 years. In this article, we address challenges related to early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of autism spectrum disorders in this age group. We provide a comprehensive review of findings from recent studies on the early development of children with autism spectrum disorders, summarizing current knowledge on early signs of autism spectrum disorders, the screening properties of early detection tools, and current best practice for diagnostic assessment of autism spectrum disorders before 2 years of age. We also outline principles of effective intervention for children under the age of 2 with suspected/confirmed autism spectrum disorders. It is hoped that ongoing studies will provide an even stronger foundation for evidence-based diagnostic and intervention approaches for this critically important age group. |

Havahart® Wireless, after years of testing and development, shakes the wireless dog fencing marketplace with groundbreaking technology. The Havahart Wireless wireless dog fence is capable of outperforming any other wireless fence system on the market.
When you want to provide your dog freedom and keep your pet safe, a wireless fence from Havahart® Wireless is the answer. Discover exactly how we keep your pet safe with our patented wireless dog fence technology.
Watch our technology video
The Radial-Shape2 Havahart® Wireless Dog Fence is driven by nanoLOC TRX 2.4 GHz transceivers that have been enhanced with complex algorithms, strategic distortion filtering and modular signal amplification.
These enhancements boost the performance of the Havahart Wireless Dog Fence systems over the competition by providing enhanced signal strength, smarter filtering cabailities and more reliable communication, delivering advanced time-of-flight-ranging technology.
Havahart® Wireless dog fence systems use the Kalman Filter, the same data-filtering technique used by NASA. Through advanced analysis, Havahart Wireless systems are capable of rejecting the statistical anomalies that can result in a fuzzy boundary.
This analysis, combined with the appropriate hardware and software, pushed the nanLOC transceiver to perform beyond its standard capabilities.
This translates into a crisper boundary, giving the Havahart® Wireless Fence Systems the ability to maintain constant signal strength throughout the entire wireless fence boundary.
What truly sets the Havahart® Wireless Fence System apart from the rest and defines how a wireless dog fence should really work, is its patented time-of-flight ranging technology.
Time-of-flight is the time it takes for a signal to travel from
a the Controller to the Collar and back at the speed of light. By continually communicating to the Collar, the Controller is able to track the real-time distance to your dog.
Based on the data that is continually captured, filtered and refined, the controller will determine whether or not a correction should be delivered. Better yet, with motion sensor technology, if your dog isn't moving while in the roaming area, the sampling rate becomes less frequent, saving battery life.
These enhancements comprise the core of the patented elements that provide an unparalleled level of technical sophistication in the wireless dog fencing industry.

The Havahart® Wireless Dog Fence is NOT a solid barrier. Our system is designed to work, in conjunction with training, to provide a deterrent for your dog to remain in the established boundary. Since the tolerance level to tone and static correction varies from pet to pet, Havahart® Wireless CANNOT guarantee that the system will, in all cases, keep a dog within the established boundary. Not all pets can be trained to avoid leaving the established boundary. If you have a reason to believe that your pet may pose a danger to others or harm himself if they are not kept within the boundary, you should NOT rely solely upon the Havahart® Wireless System to confine your dog. Havahart® Wireless shall NOT be liable for any property damage, economic loss, or any consequential damages sustained as a result of any animal crossing the boundary.

Received this system in just a few days. I could not use the flags due to fencing, barns and horses. I set my boundary and then checked it with the collar. I then led my dog to just the front boundary and when it beeped told her no and turned away. I turned her loose and she stays in! The BEST part is the monitor tells you where your dog is! For the first few days when it went off I then called my dog back. This part and the fact that it covers such a large area is great. We have it set at 280 feet and this is plenty. My dog is a water rat and keeps getting the collar wet but the monitor alerts me to low status and I switch the battery out. The only two drawbacks are short battery life and our metal barn messes with the collar. The collar will sometimes beep inside my barn which is well within the boundaries. My dog just turns and goes out but comes back later. The extra battery provided along with the charger solves the short battery life. I absolutely love this system and would highly recommend it!
Dear Barbara, Thank you for taking the time to submit an online review for the Radial-Shape2 Havahart® Wireless Dog Fence (model 5134G2). We are pleased to hear how well this system is working to safely contain your dog. The battery life on the collar will depend on how active your dog is and it has been vet-recommended that you not leave the collar on your dog for more than 12 hours at a time. We would also caution you against allowing your dog to submerge the collar in water since our collars are water-resistant, not waterproof. We appreciate your feedback and your comments have been shared with our Product Managers for use in their quality control measures. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our Consumer Relations Team at 1-800-800-1819 ext. 453.

we use it at home and also take it camping with us spanning from 40 ft radius to 400 ft. My dog was used to it in 2 days and now when we go camping it takes only a couple minutes for him to understand.
Works great, we have 5 acres which are very open except for a detached garage. Have it set for 300 feet which allows the dogs plenty of room. Took about two weeks to train my Aussies. I would highly recommend this product. Can't comment on durability as we have only had this for a couple of months so far seems very well made.
Two black labs on 5 acres and no way to give them a roaming area; that was our issue. We installed the Wireless Radial 2 fence and trained each dog as per instructions. The product has been flawless. Over 20 days into it and the dogs no longer even try to go near the flags. They stay out for 20 to 30 minutes at a time unsupervised (well OK my wife watches them from in the house) with no boundary issues. Our "fence" is a 150' setting on the home control, which is on our 2nd floor in a bedroom closet, and gives the kids nearly 2 acres of running space. Collars are set to correction level 1. I would STRONGLY urge you to follow all the training directions. I actually did extra sessions each day to reinforce the lessons and it really paid off. Batteries have been great. I change them every other day but since the kids don't challenge the fence I believe I could go longer without swapping batteries.Don't skimp on the training.
We have had our fence for three years and love it. Dog loves it. Never know how we lived with out it!
We live on 3 acres. Our full grown German Shepherd decided when she's outside she's going to leave our yard. I decided to give this fence a try and so far I love it. We had installed an underground fence years ago for another dog. This kind of fencing is a pain to install and the wire is easy to break. I looked at another brand of wireless fencing but it only covered a 90' radius. I loved the fact that this fence can be adjusted anywhere from 40' to 400'! We have ours set on 180'.
we were unsure before we bought this fence since we didn't know anyone that owned one, but we read the reviews and decided to go for it. we have a slope to our yard with the highest point being at the front so we weren't sure it would work. we bought it, set it up, and put the collars on the dogs. we put out the flags and took two days training the dogs with the shock on. we switched to loud beep only, since then, we have haven't had any problems. We changed the collars to beep loudly and when the dogs get too close, it beeps and they turn in the other direction. that's all it took. Now sometimes we forget the collars and they still don't go close to the where the perimeter is. We have one very aggressive dog, sweet, but very territorial. Even he stays away from the boundary. I LOVE THIS PRODUCT. Much cheaper than wired fences and it really does the job!
Setup was quick and easy. This product gives our dog lots of freedom to run in the yard. I would definitely recommend this product.
I got this wireless fence for my grandmother, who wanted to be able to let her little dog outside by herself (she has some little dog that's mixed breed, chihuahua and something else), but even though she has neighbors real close by, no one has a fenced-in yard. She didn't want her dog making problems for the neighbors at all.I got this for her, and my husband helped her set it up. It didn't take very long. She's been using it for a couple months now and she loves it. She says it does exactly what she wants it to, and that it was a great gift.
We have a Golden Retriever Black lab mix puppy. He always has a ton of energy and we found it hard to play wiht our little pup outside on our two acres since we don't have a fence. Havarhart has changed our lives. Garth,our dog, can now go out side by himself. Now we can play fetch with Garth and allow him to run and lay on our two acres. Garth picked up the system within an hour and headapted quickly to the system. We love Havahart!!!!!
Dear Shelby,Thank you for your online review! We are so glad to hear that the Radial-Shape2 Havahart® Wireless Dog Fence (model 5134G2) has worked so well for your dog. This system is a great way to allow Garth to run around outside and use up some of his energy, while keeping him safely within your yard. We hope you have been able to enjoy your games of catch!If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our Consumer Relations Team at 1-800-800-1819 x 453.

We have a good sized yard and two King Charles Cavalier Spaniels that quickly adapted to the wireless fence. We can't let them outside alone as they are just too mischievous and young. We wanted to give them some freedom, but they had to be on a leash or a run.Now, they can be outside with us and enjoy our yard. They learned quickly and have adapted well. If you have a similar situation, you know how nice it is that you can have your dogs enjoy your yard with you and you don't have to hover over them or have them tied up. They are happier, we are happier and that's all the difference.We don't let them out all the time unattended, but they get a *lot* more outdoor time and we've become much more relaxed about letting them roam around. They both learned really fast and we had no issues getting them trained.This is a really nice system and the benefits for all are great.
This works great for my cockapoo! She weighs just 8.6 pounds, and has not had any problems with the collar. We have just over 1/2 an acre and it is only partially fenced in with a vinyl picket fence. This has saved her from a life of always having to be on a lead when outside. Due to the possibility of other dogs coming in the yard, she's only loose outside when there's someone outside with her. This wireless fence gives me peace of mind while I'm doing yard work, or just enjoying my yard, and allows my dog to wander our property.I had my dad come over to help me set it up, but honestly, I could have done it alone. Charge the batteries the night before, and the set up is very simple.I admit, my dog is a BIG sissy. She cries when you merely scold her. Her feelings get hurt & she'll cry like you're causing her physical harm. Surprisingly, she did not cry out when she got a shock. She looked a bit surprised, and it took a couple of tries for her to realize that walking out of the yard = that uncomfy shock.If they only made these for housebreaking, my life would have been SO much easier!
We have been having some trouble with our beagle, Polly. None of us knew that beagles could climb trees and fences when they wanted to see what was on the other side of the fence. But she can. And she does. So far the bailout fees have been about $500. Our real concern, though, is that on the other side of the woods behind our backyard is a county highway. The speed limit is 50 but it's a dangerous world for puppies and other small animals.Anyway, you can let Polly out in the back yard and then in a few minutes see her running in circles in the front yard. You can actually be standing next to her, thinking you are watching her, and she will turn up on the other side of the fence. It's like the fence is invisible to her. We have repaired and re-repaired and blocked access to trees and yet the dog is smarter than the fence. She can go under or go over. Either is just like walking for her.The Wireless Fence could not have been easier to set up. I charged the batteries the night before and was planning on spending hours figuring out complicated formulas but none of that has been necessary. The unit should be placed on an outside wall. On the setup menu, it asks you what number you want the radius to be. Then the collar needs to be fit pretty snugly so that the points are connected to the dog's skin. The included collar is already connected. I didn't bother with the flags because Polly eats everything.The other handy part of this is it lets you know with a beep when your dog is at the perimeter. Polly was willing to be shocked for awhile on her first visit to the perimeter and she was willing to keep being shocked while she tried to chew off the collar. Fortunately, the beep called us before she went too far with it.I was a little freaked when I initially checked the setup of the collar and it said it was 10 feet. What it was really telling me was that the collar on the dog was ten feet away from the unit. That's a pretty sweet way to locate the little monster.Personally I was against having a dog shocked but then it turned out I was more against having a dog run out onto the highway and this is the perfect solution. No wires to bury. No eight foot tall fences to build.
Great for our small dog and large yard! This works great for my cockapoo! She weights just 8.6 pounds, and has not had any problems with the collar. We have just over 1/2 an acre and it is only partially fenced in with a vinyl picket fence. This has saved her from a life of always having to be on a lead when outside.

We have a cocker spaniel named Mocha who is two years old and who likes to roam. I can't tell you how many times one of my neighbors has called for me to come and get him. He's friendly as all get out, but I'm afraid that one day the popo will get him and I don't relish a trip to the pound to pay his bail or worse he might get hit by a car.It took four days with this fence to train him not to leave the front yard. That's it, four days of buzzing and a mild shock.We live kind of in the country and our neighbors are a fur piece. Well, not that far, but farther than in the city, so Mocha has a very large yard to run in and we just didn't want to fence it. Now we don't have to and as a bonus, he doesn't wear the collar anymore. Once trained, he figured out where his boundaries are and has pretty much stuck to them.Actually, in the two months since we've had this collar off, he's only wandered over to the neighbor's just once and that's pretty good. We did put the collar back on him for a couple days, to reinforce that he shouldn't leave, but it's off again now. We don't know why he strayed that day, maybe he was chasing a rabbit, we get a lot of those.I'm not going to say that you'll be as lucky with your dog as we were with Mocha, but even if it takes a little longer for you to train your dog to stay in the yard, it's worth it, because once you know your dog's not going to go a wandering it's one big worry you can forget about.
We found this to be better than the Petsafe brand we tried. Keeping my hyper Boxer in the yard and close by at a level 3 even. Highly recommend this brand for you dog needs.
Love, Love, Love this system. My dog is small so I got the "Small breed" version. Setting 2 seems to be the best for him (He is headstrong) The batteries go about 2 weeks before needing changed with the settings I use. I really like that I can see the battery level on the main unit. I have the system set to 140 foot. Very reliable range and stable. Oliver learned his boundries very quickly. I walked with him and waived the flags like the directions say. He very rarely gets close to the outer boundaries now. Even with the neighbors dogs out, he stays in our yard. So easy to set up too. I tell eveyone I know that has a dog to get this system. It really is awesome. Thanks.
We have had the new and improved Radial Shape Wireless System now for about 3 weeks. It has been a lifesaver! We have 2 BlueTick Coon Hounds, about 50 pounds each. Our biggest fear was that they would ignore the beep and shock if they were on a trail and busy hunting. But to our surprise, it works! We tried the training... didn't work. We tried setting the system on the lowest shock settings to ease them into it... didn't work. So we just set it to high and let them figure it out. And they did. Dogs are smarter than we give them credit for, so it only took a couple initial shocks for them to learn. The only negative review I have is that one of the collars stopped working. But the customer service was wonderful and shipped a new collar to us prompty once we mailed the old one back. I definately recommend this product to others. It allows you to let your dog have plenty of space to roam and live a happy dog life!

My husband set up our fence in a matter of minutes. What a piece of cake! We have two dogs. My dogs didn't even need as much "training" as recommended for the fence. My lab won't even attempt to chase a ball outside of the boundary(which is a huge feat for her)! My golden retriever stays put for the most part. I would like to note that he does occasionally go outside the boundary. If he wants to meet my daughter when she gets off the bus, he shakes his head and keeps walking(even on the highest setting). I am not sure if this is due to his thick coat or if its his stubbornness and loyalty to my daughter. Luckily, we dont worry about him running off. This keeps both of my dogs in our yard MOST of the time and keeps my lab in the yard 100%. The battery life is long. The monitor is easy to read and self explanatory. I love this fence and would purchase it again in a heartbeat! I honestly have nothing negative to say about this. All I need now, is a Havahart pet door! Thank you Havahart for keeping my dogs safe and for giving us peace of mind!
Thank you for taking the time to submit an online review. The Radial-Shape2 Havahart® Wireless Electric Dog Fence (Item Number 5134G2) is a wonderful alternative to chaining up pets or digging for an underground wired system. The wireless signal allows for ease of installation as well as portability. In some instances stubborn dogs will put up with the correction if they are motivated to leave the boundary. In order to curb the behavior, it is suggested to use the long prongs, trim the fur where the prongs meet the neck and if need be increase the correction level. We are so pleased to learn that the system suits you and your dogs' needs. Please contact us at 1-800-800-1819 option 453 with questions.
The sole reason we were interested in this fence is because we take an annual trip to visit family who live in a lake community. They have a large unfenced yard on the lake and a large number of dogs wander in and out. Last year we either had to have the pup chained or we had to keep an eagle eye on him in case he bolted off. He is a whippet and thus a sight hound. Sight hounds are notorious for being single minded when they see something to chase and we have been told time and again not to ever trust their recall because their prey drive is so strong. So we really need this fence to work. Well, it does! We set it up with minimal fuss. The pup's training was sufficient and he only needed a couple of incidents where he chased another dog outside the flags, heard the static, got a jolt, and bounded back in* for him to keep a sharp eye out for those wretched flags.The only bad things I have to say about the system are: the flags themselves are flimsy and beware of areas where objects interfere with the signal. But I have to say, overall I was extremely pleased with the fence and look forward to using it by the lake on future visits.Highly Recommended*One of the best things about this system is the fact that the dog does not get shocked again when he comes back inside the safe zone.
I just got my wireless 2 small dog fence about a week ago. I followed all the instructions and got it set up, set out my flags and walked my doxies around the perimeter a few times. About every 20 feet I would stop and shake a flag and say "BAD FLAG." I then put on their collars and let them out while keeping an eye on them. Both of them got zapped on the medium low setting a couple of times, yet it has not happened again. While this fence is not the cheapest in town, it is very good and I love the fact that when I move in a few months it will be coming with me and all I will have to do is put out the flags for a couple of weeks. The only thing I would like to see is a smaller receiver on the collar and with the advancement of technology it's just a matter of time. I would recommend this fence to anyone with confidence.
Great product for Wireless fence (Large area up to 11 acres!) This thing works well. I used to have a pet safe wireless and upgraded to this for a larger area.Pros
Works great! Easy to setup and tailor the settings to my yard. My only complaint is that the collar is a buckle not a snap clip collar. This makes it harder to put on and take off.
BackgroundWe have a Brick house on top of a hill with flat terrain. However, I want to restrict my dog from going into the forest, the neighbor's yard and street. Our dog is a 6 year old Bichon Frise that is house trained. He goes to the front door when he needs to make a bathroom break and he will circle us if he needs to go, if we are not in the Foyer.SetupSetup was rather easy. The menu system is intuitive and simple to follow. The dog collar comes with 2 rechargeable CR123 batteries. I put the controller near the garage window, away from electromagnetic interference. The zone is more of an ellipse for my property but it covers the danger areas for my dog.Using the transmitter for tone, only, the user places flags to mark out the perimeter. It serves as the physical landmark for the play zone. A warning tone occurs as you approach the boundary and a correction is administered if the pet goes beyond it. This lasts for 30 seconds according to the manual but I did not test that lockout feature.The system involves a several week training interval to get the pet to adapt to the sound, feedback and flag markers. My dog picked up pretty quickly that it was not to go beyond the tone alarm. I set the correction to a medium setting.UseThe system works well for our pet, when all he needs is a potty break from the house. I just place the collar on at that time. Obviously, I don't use this for walks around the property. He is usually on a leash for that.ConclusionThis is a well made system and will work on properties with a less robust landscape. The setup is critical.
We have a 7 month old male labrador (fixed) and live in a rural, mountainous area. Larger dogs tend to run free where we live, within reason. We also tend to have a lot of domestic dogs running around, in a good way. But they all enable each other to stray a little.Our new puppy was wandering some pretty impressive or offensive distances and it started to become a problem early on. So we bought this wireless fence, and the results have been good but not perfect.The 400 foot radius is awesome, we only use 250. The system is very easy to use and configure, no issues there. At 400 feet, your dog will have plenty of room to run.We did the flags and training with him at 250 feet.It kept him fairly in check pretty fast. I took the shock myself on its highest level. The shock on me did work, but I thought it would hurt a lot more that it did. It was very "mildly unpleasant" for me, nowhere near enough for me to drop the collar or anything. I'm 200 pounds, he's maybe 25 pounds. But I was still expecting more. This will not hurt your dog, don't worry about that.So make sure that collar is tight when they're outside. I can see fur blocking a lot of the shock.But if there is a rabbit and he feels like making a run for it, or a jogger who he'd like to join, he will bust through. Probably typical puppy-hood. But his wandering has been cut way, way down. He at least knows where his boundaries are.On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being he never leaves his land without his collar EVER, I'd give it an 8.
We are extremely happy with the Havahart Wireless Fence. Easy to hook up and dog is much happier with the added room he has to play and keeps him safe from the road and other problems. He is a young dog and very adventurous and this keeps him where we know he is staying out of trouble.
The best feature of this Havahart product is that it is so easy to set up and is portable. There is no digging or placing of a wire underground. It works through a controller and a dog collar, so you can take it anywhere you like and use it whenever you like. And, of course, there is no electric shock so many would say it is more humane and a better way to contain a dog. Some may worry that the lack of an electric jolt will not deter a dog enough and he/she will continue to go where they like, but I found the opposite to be true. Through proper training, your dog learns to stay within a specific, defined area. With traditional wireless fences, a determined canine will just continue to run and tolerate the shock in order to reach a target. This is why I do not trust the traditional wireless fences. I know my dog too well. He will not let an electric shock stop him from chasing a squirrel or anything else.
We have used these wireless electrical fences before - actually several different makes and brands over the years. We have used them in different locations, for different dogs and under different circumstances. Overall we have found that these devices are quite effective if you take the time; and make no mistake, you must devote time, to train your dog(s) properly. There are no free lunches in this world. It should also be noted that despite the fact that your dog may be brighter than the average Jr. High, (I know our three are), they are still a dog and each animal will react differently to any given set of circumstances...you must modify your training to meet your particular dog's needs.Now that being said:Of the different devices we have used over the years, I must say that this one was the easiest to install and has been the easiest to move from area to area. From a mechanical standpoint, we found no fault in its performance. It works how it says it will work. We also found that for the money, this was the best unit available. Yes, there are units and systems out there that quite well may be better, but to be quite frank, you pay much more for those units.I was able to install this fence the first time in a little over an hour. It took that long because I am a klutz and rather clueless about such things. The second time I set it up took about half that time. I am sure the third time will be even quicker. We live in the woods - I mean in the woods and on a little over five acres. Our dogs run free most of the time and have "pretty much" been trained to stay away from the road. Never the less, they sometimes forget themselves which causes us anguish to no end. We have set up an area in our side yard of about a 60 foot radius. This device is very effective at that range. All three dogs, after three weeks of training, respond well to the buzz signal.I did test this thing on myself and found that while it was startling (we are talking the shock part here), it was not what I would call painful although it most certainly got my attention.The only feature of this unit I did not like was the bulk of the neck unit. We have three smallish terriers . One of the terriers; a Boston Terrier, is our "problem child" as he is quite bright but has a very hard head. It took longer to train him but even he now responds in a positive manner.This is a good and workable unit IF you take the time to properly train our dog(s) for it.Don BlankenshipThe Ozarks
Love it! great customer service. This has saved my dogs life! we live near a highway and this keeps my dog at home....he will go under fences or dart out the door but he can't get past the wireless fence.its very very easy to set up. i was skeptical about the cost...but it is totally worth it! also i was skeptical about the shocking...but thankfully the collar makes a beep to warn the dog to step away from the perimeter before it gets shocked, so the dog has advanced warning that it needs to move away...the dog rarely ever gets shocked.I thought training would take days....but my dog was trained in about 10 minutes to stop when he heard the beep. for the first few minutes when i waved the flags in his face he thought i was nuts, i could tell this was not going anywhere.....so i jumped ahead in the training and the first time he was shocked he figured it out immediately. he's smarter than i thought! we had to switch to the large prongs because he has thick fur around his neck. My dog is 50 lbs and has had no problem with the size of the collar. also you have to change the batteries almost everyday.we did have a problem when the collar stopped working for no apparent reason after only 7 months. as soon as my dog figured it out...he was back to his old tricks. i called customer service and they replaced it. it was a long week until we got the collar...but the new one works great. i had no problem with customer service, they were incredibly helpful! i love this company, i so rarely have a good customer service experience and will definitely make purchases with them in the future. dog is bummed =)
We live in a neighborhood where almost every house has a dog or dogs. I do not have a wireless or invisible fence, but many of our neighbors do. I know that the invisible or wireless fences don't always work, because if a dog wants to chase a squirrel, cat, chipmunk or rabbit bad enough, that dog will take the shock through the barrier and once out of the wired area, the dog is out and down the block. Our one neighbor has 2 dogs with the underground wire and one dog always breaks the barrier while the other dog has never gone beyond the wire. The problem with invisible or wireless fences is that you never know if your dog will stay in the barrier or break out and keep going until you've spent the money to find out.Our backyard is fenced for the dog and the front is not. I wanted this Havahart Wireless Fence for two reasons, to give the dog some play space in the unfenced front yard with me and to be able to go anywhere and keep the dog in a confined area. When I say to be able to go anywhere, I mean if we go camping, on picnics, visiting friends or leaving the dog with a relative. The beauty of a Wireless Fence, is NO wire- meaning you can take the controller, collar and your dog anywhere. The portability concept is wonderful- IF it works.The set up of this Havahart Wireless Fence is unbelievably easy. You charge the batteries- they give you 2, but only one is in the collar. It's great to have the extra battery to quickly replace the one in the collar when it needs recharging. You set up the radius you want to contain your dog's space in, on the controller. You then place the controller on an outside wall in your home. Then measure the outside space and flag the perimeter- our front is 52 feet by 50 feet- you must measure in a circle- so we flagged 50 feet. The collar has an antenna wire inside the neckband, which tells you how many feet your dog is from the controller, whenever you want to check- we found this to be a very helpful added feature.We purchased another collar, as Havahart stated that 2 collars will work inside the perimeter of one controller, and decided to see if this works on 2 dogs- my neighbor's dog and ours. We are talking about a border collie and german shepherd- both highly intelligent dogs that love to learn new things and new games. The actual shock the dog gets from this Havahart Wireless collar, we tested against our neighbor's invisible fence collar. My neighbor's husband was the guinea pig. The invisible fence collar is an actual mild electric shock that gets stronger. This Havahart collar has one tone- with 5 correction levels. He said it was more of a buzzing, then became a sort of electric buzzing, then what he would call the shock, was about 20 times milder than the invisible fence shock. Our neighbor said this was too mild to work, but I was actually happy that the shock was mild.Now comes the training and this is where I found out if this works for both dogs. A couple times each day, my neighbor and I just introduced the flagged area to the dogs with the collars set to tone only. We taught them to recognize the flags and the collar tone mean stop. This took 5 days. We then set the collars to low static correction- a kind of buzzing pulse that tells the dogs they are outside the flagged area. In the second week, we had to teach them to ignore all the wonderful things outside the flagged area and to stay inside when the collars buzzed. When you remove the flags (If you choose to- we found out some dogs need the visual and collar both) and have the dog focus on just the collar buzzing, this is where you need to spend some time with your dog, as it was a slower learning process with the border collie because she has a natural tendency to chase and round up everything that moves. The german shepherd was an easier train than the female border collie with her naturally free spirit. After 2 weeks, the german shepherd would move back with a low level buzzing type shock, but the border collie couldn't resist chasing a squirrel. We will spend more time on the border collie, but she is such a free spirit, I don't know how long it will take or if it will work at all.As for our german shepherd, he was trained immediately and we took the controller to my brother's home, where we set it up with a 65 foot perimeter and he stayed inside that perimeter for the entire afternoon. The mildest buzzing stops him, so I found out it's all about the dog, training the dog and not about shocking the dog. This is a wonderful wireless fence and the best part is, that if your dog is easily trained, you can take the controller anywhere and contain your dog with nothing but a buzzing collar.
I have never wrote a review in my life but please take my advice and run ! We got this product in March 2013 it worked great for a month and then just stopped.I called the company and they sent me a "replacement collar" which we put on our dog and it worked for maybe a day and then...WE LOST OUR DOG TO THIS PRODUCT. We were so disgusted we just left it alone for awhile due to losing our dog. My husband suprised me with a new dog and we are once again uable to get this product to work however it will shock INSIDE the boundary! Finally when I called this week I wasnt very nice and was told that her supervisor had left but I would definetly hear from them the next day..well guess what still have heard nothing!!! Unless you have $300 to throw out the window and dont care if you lose your dog or not then this product is for you !
Thank you for your review of the Radial-Shape2 Havahart® Wireless Dog Fence (model 5134G2). We are very sorry to hear of your experience with this product. At Havahart® Wireless, we take your dog's safety very seriously and have shared these comments with our Product Development Team for use in our quality control measures. We apologize for the delay in getting back to you. According to our records, I do see that you were able to speak to a supervisor. We are happy to see that we were able to work with you to resolve the issue. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact our Consumer Relations Team at 800-800-1819 x 453.
Proper training of your dog is the most crucial element to ensure the safe and successful operation of your Havahart® Dog Fence. Find below an interactive guide to faciliate the dog training process as well as instructions to guide you step-by-step. It is important that you follow the instruction manual and complete the entire training process without skipping any phase.
For Best Results:
Keep your sessions short and frequent--approximately 10-15 minutes long, 2-3 times a day.
Be firm, consistent and patient.
End sessions with lots of playtime and praise.
And HAVE FUN!
Use the interactive flag calculator to determine just the right number of flags that you need to create your fence boundary.
It will also provide you with the number of extra flag packs you will need to purchase should you require more than the 75 flags that are included with your fence.

Obstacles that May Cause Severe Attenuation
In order to ensure a successful set up, please look for the following objects in your home and on your property prior to set up:
Interior of the home: Mirrors, microwaves, and home appliances.
Exterior of the home: Aluminum siding, metal down spouting, electrical power meters, air conditioning units, metal garage doors, and stucco walls
Property layout: Large bushes, trees, extensive landscaping, above-ground pools, sheds and metal screened porches.
Once you have identified the following items, you can start planning your controller and fence boundary locations.
Although we would like to say that the Radial-Shape Havahart® Wireless Dog Fence will work on every property type or home construction, we unfortunately cannot.
Even with our superior patented technology, there are instances when the successful operation of any wireless dog fence will be very limited and not meet your needs. Because your satisfaction is important to us, we want to make sure you are aware of these circumstances prior to making a purchase.
Note: In some cases the obstacles on your property such as a heavily wooded lot or extensive landscaping might be so dense that the system will not provide you with a wireless dog fence boundary shape that satisfies your needs. In these particular cases, we would recommend our Underground Dog Fence, the Fence Free Pet Containment System
Training your Dog
Once your fence boundary has been set, training your dog is key to achieving your ultimate goal. Each dog learns differently. You will need to determine the appropriate speed for training and the collar correction level needed based on the size and temperament of your dog.

wooded lots and heavily landscaped properties.

On Friday, February 21, over 470 people gathered in Olympia for this year's Catholic Advocacy Day, an Archdiocesan-wide initiative to strengthen Catholic advocacy and public education that addresses the needs of poor people in Washington State. Our mission calls us to "join with others to change the systems, which oppress, discriminate or otherwise cause human suffering," and Catholic Advocacy Day offers us a powerful opportunity to be a voice for change.
Participants traveled from as far away as Bellingham, Spokane, Sunnyside and Vancouver to join us. The day began at St. Michael's Parish in Olympia where everyone heard a legislative briefing on the issues including Economic Justice, Children's Mental Health and Mental Health Services, the Housing Trust Fund, and Children's Safe Products provided by Sr. Sharon Park, Executive Director, and Donna Christensen, Lobbyist with the Washington State Catholic Conference. Mass was then led by Most Rev. J. Peter Sartain, Archbishop of Seattle, concluding this portion of the day.
Energized by the presentations and sharing Mass together, participants then departed on buses bound for the State Capitol just a short distance away. Many of those attending wore red and everyone carried bright red folders emblazoned with the words Justice & Life for All.Throughout the early afternoon participants met with legislators and staff from their home districts and shared information and stories of how the decisions that are made during the current legislative session affect the poorest and most vulnerable people in the state. It was a great day of enthusiastic advocacy on behalf of those we serve!
The HEN program provides participants with rent, utility and transportation assistance, as well as essential items such as hygiene and cleaning products. Click here to learn more about CCS' Housing and Essential Needs program.

Trigeminal neuralgia (tic douloureux) is severe facial pain due to malfunction of the 5th cranial nerve (trigeminal nerve). This nerve carries sensory information from the face to the brain and controls the muscles involved in chewing.
Trigeminal neuralgia usually occurs in middle-aged and older people, although it can affect adults of all ages. It is more common among women.
A common cause is an abnormally positioned artery that compresses the trigeminal nerve near where it exits the brain. Occasionally in younger people, trigeminal neuralgia results from nerve damage due to multiple sclerosis. Rarely, trigeminal neuralgia results from damage due to shingles (herpes zoster) or compression by a tumor.
The pain can occur spontaneously but is often triggered by touching a particular spot (called a trigger point) on the face, lips, or tongue or by an action such as brushing the teeth or chewing. Repeated short, lightning-like bursts of excruciating stabbing pain can be felt in any part of the lower portion of the face but are most often felt in the cheek next to the nose or in the jaw.
Usually, only one side of the face is affected. The pain usually lasts seconds but may last up to 2 minutes. Recurring as often as 100 times a day, the pain can be incapacitating. Because the pain is intense, people tend to wince, and thus the disorder is sometimes called a tic. The disorder commonly resolves on its own, but bouts of the disorder often recur after a long pain-free interval.
Although no specific test exists for identifying trigeminal neuralgia, its characteristic pain usually makes it easy for doctors to diagnose. However, doctors must distinguish trigeminal neuralgia from other possible causes of facial pain, such as disorders of the jaw, teeth, or sinuses and trigeminal neuropathy (which is often due to compression of the trigeminal nerve caused by a tumor, stroke, an aneurysm, or multiple sclerosis). Trigeminal neuropathy can be distinguished because it causes loss of sensation and often weakness in parts of the face, and trigeminal neuralgia does not.
Because the bouts of pain are brief and recurrent, typical analgesics are not usually helpful, but other drugs, especially certain anticonvulsants (which stabilize nerve membranes), may help. The anticonvulsant carbamazepine Some Trade Names TEGRETOL is usually tried first. Oxcarbazepine Some Trade Names TRILEPTAL , gabapentin Some Trade Names NEURONTIN , or phenytoin Some Trade Names DILANTIN , also anticonvulsants, may be prescribed if carbamazepine Some Trade Names TEGRETOL is ineffective or has intolerable side effects. Baclofen Some Trade Names LIORESAL (a drug used to reduce muscle spasms) or a tricyclic antidepressant (such as amitriptyline—see Table: Drugs Used to Treat Depression) may be used instead.
If the pain continues to be severe, surgery may be done. If the cause is an abnormally positioned artery, a surgeon separates the artery from the nerve and places a small sponge between them. This procedure (called vascular decompression) usually relieves the pain for many years. If the cause is a tumor, the tumor can be surgically removed.
If people have pain unrelieved by drugs and surgery seems too risky, a test can be done to determine whether other procedures would help. For the test, alcohol is injected into the nerve to temporarily block its function. If alcohol relieves the pain, disrupting the nerve may relieve the pain, sometimes permanently. The nerve may be cut surgically or with a radiofrequency probe (using heat) or gamma knife (using radiation), or it may be destroyed by injecting a drug such as glycerol into it. However, these treatments are used as a last resort. They often provide only temporary relief—for months to a few years—and afterward, discomfort in the face returns and is even more severe.
When pain results from an abnormally positioned artery pressing on a cranial nerve, the pain can be relieved by a surgical procedure called vascular decompression. This procedure may be done to treat trigeminal neuralgia, hemifacial spasms, or glossopharyngeal neuralgia.
If the trigeminal nerve is compressed, an area on the back of the head is shaved, and an incision is made. The surgeon cuts a small hole in the skull and lifts the edge of the brain to expose the nerve. Then the surgeon separates the artery from the nerve and places a small sponge between them. A general anesthetic is required, but the risk of side effects from the procedure is small. Side effects include facial numbness, facial weakness, double vision, infection, bleeding, alterations in hearing and balance, and paralysis.
Usually, this procedure relieves the pain, but in about 15% of people, pain recurs.
