First there was The Beatles and then there was Elton John. You can't talk about Elton John without talking about Bernie Taupin as well. A song writing duo almost unsurpassed in music history. The amount of hit albums and songs they produced together is staggering. In the early days pumping out 2 albums a year like a well oiled machine of course that was customary in the 70's. Not like today where you can wait up to 5 years for a band to come out with a new album like NIN.
I like music that is deep and introspective and Elton/Bernie don't disappoint. Elton John music can be deeply emotional and moving and also just plain fun. Unlike The Beatles who burned very brightly indeed but only lasted a decade, Elton has been around for my entire life. The day he stops making music will be a sad day indeed but he has given me more great music to listen to than any other artist I love including the likes of Iron Maiden.
I really wouldn't want to talk to someone claiming to be a music lover without an appreciation for Elton John. It really wouldn't make a bit of sense to me at all.
Some of my favorite songs.....
Your Song
Tiny Dancer
Rocket Man
Honky Cat
Crocodile Rock
Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Candle in the Wind
Bennie and the Jets
Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me
Philadelphia Freedom
Someone Saved My Life Tonight
Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word
Don't Go Breaking My Heart
Little Jeannie
I'm Still Standing
I guess That's Why They Call It The Blues
Sad Songs
and on and on.

Oh fuck and Daniel. How I love that song about a one-eyed war vet going to Spain the only place he feels he can live.
Spain is the most beautiful country in the world I'm sure of it. I must go back someday.
The Bitch is Back too hell yeah.
One thing I love about Elton John is that he spit in the face of the typical 3:00 pop song running time and made song that run well past that mark. Despite this radio stations never had enough of his songs to play.

Been listening to Elton John the last couple of days and his songs make me sad for the most part. Not in a bad way but I have associated many of his songs to particular tough times in my youth like lost love and love I never had and such. Back in the day there was no escaping EJ.

Vintage Elton is priceless. I too say, first there was THE BEATLES then there is ELTON. Nice comparison, both ahving contributed songs that are timeless and seemed to have been waiting to exist all along.
When you are beautiful it's only skin deep, but when you are ugly it's all the way through.

I do agree that even the newer albums are great but I definitely have more attachment to the older stuff. I have so many memories to go along with alot of them.

Unprecedented access to the great minds who led the molecular biology revolution
Friday, 01 March 2013 16:08 |
Cold Spring Harbor, NY and London, England -
Francis Crick's preliminary sketches of the double helix. James Watson's February 1953 letter to Max Delbruck reporting that he has "a very pretty model" for DNA. Rosalind Franklin's famed x-ray diffraction 'photo 51.'
These and literally a million other primary-source documents telling the amazing story of the biological revolutions of the 1950s and 1960s, together with their legacies in the fields of medical genetics and genomics, have been collected together for the first time and are being made freely available to the public on the world wide web beginning today by a group of five institutions led by the Wellcome Library of Great Britain.
Codebreakers: makers of modern genetics
, the web-based resource, the cumlimation of a massive digitization effort, provides public access to first-hand notes, letters, sketches, lectures, photographs and essays from the circle of brilliant minds responsible for uncovering the structure of DNA. The site lays bare the personal and professional thoughts, rivalries, blind alleys and breakthroughs of the scientists whose ideas transformed our understanding of the matter of life.

Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory's Library & Archives collections, which include the papers of Nobel laureates James Watson and Sydney Brenner among others, are a key source for
"CSHL was very happy to participate in the project," says Ludmila Pollock, Executive Director of CSHL's Library & Archives. "It gives me a great pleasure to know that the extensive collections of two giants in the field of molecular biology and genetics will be available in digital form. The digitized images from our collection will be available on CSHL Library website as well as at the Wellcome site.
"It was a good experience to collaborate with the Wellcome Library as well as with other participating institutions: Churchill Archives Centre Cambridge, the University of Glasgow, King's College London and University College London," Pollock added.
In addition to the Watson and Brenner papers, other digitized collections brought into association by the project include those of Rosalind Franklin, Lionel Penrose, J.B.S. Haldane, Guido Pontecorvo, James Harrison Renwick, Malcolm Ferguson-Smith and Maurice Wilkins. They join material from the Wellcome Library's own holdings including the papers of Francis Crick, Fred Sanger, Arthur Ernest Mourant, Peter Medawar, Hans Grüneberg, Honor Fell and Gerard Wyatt.

Wind gusts of up to 79 miles per hour were reported at John F. Kennedy International Airport at around 9 p.m on Monday.
The storm surge was reaching as high as 13.7 feet around 9 p.m. at the Battery in New York City, which was threatening flooding throughout the city's Financial District. The New York Stock Exchange on Wall Street is located near the Battery.
A blizzard also moved into regions of the Appalachians as the superstorm engulfed much of the eastern seaboard.

Gay and Lesbian Republicans Seek Political Inclusion
Their campaign contributions go to candidates with varied views on gay-rights issues.
When former Republican National Committee Chairman Ken Mehlman publicly acknowledged his homosexuality last week, the revelation was news because of his leadership role in a political party not known for its affirmation of gay-rights issues.
The Atlantic's Marc Ambinder, who broke the story, called Mehlman the "most powerful Republican in history to identify as gay." Aside from chairing the RNC, Mehlman also managed the successful 2004 reelection campaign of President George W. Bush, which used the issue of state bans on same-sex marriage to draw conservative voters to the polls.
As a prominent member of the GOP, Mehlman has contributed to Republican candidates and political action committees, more commonly known as PACs. In this election cycle, Mehlman has given $45,000 in political contributions. Top recipients include the National Republican Senatorial Committee and Eric Cantor's leadership PAC, the Every Republican is Crucial PAC.
Records also show that Mehlman contributed $1,900 on April 27, 2009, to Pennsylvania Sen. Arlen Specter, who famously changed parties the next day, from Republican to Democrat. Shortly thereafter, Mehlman received a refund from the campaign.
All other recipients of his money have been Republicans, and they represent a wide range of views on gay rights. Mehlman has given $2,400 each to Missouri Rep. Roy Blunt and Utah Sen. Bob Bennett , both of whom have voiced opposition to same-sex marriage. But Mehlman has also contributed to candidates who have a more liberal view on the topic, such as Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown, who has defended his state's legalization of same-sex marriage as "settled law." [See which industries have contributed to Scott Brown.]
Mehlman's self-outing has drawn increased attention to the political activism of gay and lesbian Republicans at a time when the Democratic Party is far more often associated with backing gay rights. The Log Cabin Republicans, a PAC that has since the late 1970s promoted "a more inclusive Republican Party for gay and lesbian Americans," has given financial support to several congressional candidates. [See who receives the most money from Republican/Conservative groups.]
Topping the list is New York State Assemblywoman Dierdre Scozzafava, who received $3,000 from the Log Cabin Republicans in late 2009 for the special election for New York's 23rd District House seat. Scozzafava withdrew just days before the election, throwing her support to Democrat Bill Owens, who won the seat in a tight race against Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman. Scozzafava is a Republican known for her liberal views, including support of same-sex marriage and abortion rights.
Other top recipients include Rep. Mary Bono Mack, who is fighting off a challenge from openly gay Democrat Steven Pougnet, the mayor of Palm Springs, in California's 45th District. Bono Mack's record on same-sex issues is controversial among advocates of same-sex rights. She drew fire in May, when she voted against the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," the law that prevents homosexuals from serving openly in the military. Louisiana Republican Rep. Anh "Joseph" Cao, one of Democrats' main targets in House races this November, has received $1,500 from the Log Cabin Republicans. Cao was one of the five Republicans to vote for the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell."
Below is a list of the candidates to whom the Log Cabin Republicans have contributed money during the 2010 election cycle.
Dierdre Scozzafava | NY | H | Challenger (lost) | $3,000 |
Mary Bono Mack | CA | H | Incumbent | $2,000 |
Anh "Joseph" Cao | LA | H | Incumbent | $1,500 |
Charles Djou | HI | H | Incumbent | $1,250 |
Ileana Ros-Lehtinen | FL | H | Incumbent | $1,000 |
Judy Biggert | IL | H | Incumbent | $1,000 |
Richard Hanna | NY | H | Challenger | $500 |
Frank Scaturro | NY | H | Challenger | $250 |

Jane Gets A Divorce
From ZineWiki
Jane Gets A Divorce was a one shot zine created by Jena von Brucker and published in Toronto in the 1990's.
Articles included the quiz "What Has He Done For You Lately?" a humorous questionaire for women about the advisability of living with gay male roommates. It was reprinted in Outpunk, which devoted issue six to articles from zines the editor deemed important, and so published this excerpt from Jane Gets A Divorce.
Jena von Brucker also was the co-editor of the zines Jane and Frankie and Double Bill and a contributor to Chainsaw, Girl Germs and J.D.s.

Bond was set at $1 million Monday for Joseph Goodin, 25, of Middletown — the man Butler County prosecutors say shot and killed a 19-year-old Fairfield man during a Nov. 24 home invasion.
All five suspects accused of playing a role in the death of Julian Slaven were in Butler County Common Pleas Court on Monday — each shackled at the waist and wearing orange jail jumpsuits — to be arraigned on murder, aggravated burglary and robbery with gun specifications charges. Goodin; Jerry Eacholes, 26, of Middletown; Misty Williams and Christia Frymire, both 19 of Fairfield; and Anthony Givens, 21, of Hamilton, all entered not guilty pleas before Judge Patricia Oney.
The judge set bail for Eacholes, a former Baltimore Street Gang member, and Givens, who police believe is the brother of another member of the same gang, at $500,000 each. Bond was set at $200,000 for both Williams and Frymire.
But Goodin, who Prosecutor Mike Gmoser identified during the arraignment as the shooter in Slaven's homicide, received the largest bond at $1 million. Gmoser had requested that the judge set $1 million bonds for all of the accused.
"I'm satisfied that the court will take into consideration that the equal administration of penalty for all of these will be a maximum 38 (years) to life," he told Oney. "A million dollars would be appropriate."
Attorney David Washington, who was hired to represent Givens, said his client has no criminal history and he turned himself in to police immediately after he heard they were looking for him. He first asked for a $50,000 bond for his client. After Oney set bond for the girls at $200,000 and his client at $500,000, he was incensed and asked why the treatment was different for his client. Oney did not answer him. After the hearing, he was still visibly upset. Washington said he respects Oney's decision but he still didn't understand it.
"The culpability of my client, even as alleged by the state, is the same as the two people with $200,000 bonds, the two white females," he said. "I don't know what the reasoning is behind it."
Gmoser told Oney all five defendants plotted the burglary and robbery together and that makes them all equally guilty. The section of state law that all five were charged under for murder states, in part, that the crime is murder if it was committed during another felony crime.
Gmoser said Goodin and Williams have given statements, which will necessitate three separate trials, according to Assistant Prosecutor David Kash. Givens, Eacholes and Frymire will be tried together at this point, he said.
Gmoser told Oney his case was very strong and that 38-year-to-life sentences were very possible.
"We expect the evidence will be clear, which will come from the defendant witnesses and a number of these witnesses by themselves," Gmoser said. "Mr. Goodin, as the evidence will show, gave a very detailed statement, which has been corroborated by Miss Williams. There is other independent testimony that will corroborate the statements given in this case."
Goodin and Eacholes also face weapons under disability charges in this case. Goodin has a domestic violence conviction in Butler County and a heroin conviction in Montgomery County. He has been charged seven times in Middletown Municipal Court.
Eacholes has four felony drug and gang convictions in Butler County and a weapons under disability conviction in Montgomery County. He has been charged 26 times in Middletown Municipal Court since he turned 19. There will be a probation violation hearing in Judge Craig Hedric's court Wednesday for one of Eacholes' prior convictions.
Both Eacholes and Goodin also face weapons under disability charges.

Testimonies reveal Mamtek's Chinese plant was unverified
Missouri's Economic Development department is defending its role in the controversy surrounding a failed artificial sweetener plant in the small town of Moberly.
Town officials testified Tuesday before a State House committee that the agency did not provide them with emails from a DED representative revealing that he could not verify whether Los Angeles-based Mamtek had a functioning plant in China. DED General Counsel Chris Pieper disagreed in his testimony.
"We shared the concern…we didn't share the email, but we shared the concern…we shared it on multiple occasions, by email, that we were doing additional research. "
DED Director David Kerr testified that it would have been a waste of taxpayer money to double-check every claim made by every company seeking incentives. Meanwhile, the chair of the committee conducting the hearings said he may issue a subpoena to Mamtek's patent attorney if he refuses to voluntarily testify.

Former partner in international law firm indicted on multiple child pornography counts
August 23, 2012 |
Defendant Allegedly Advertised and Distributed Images of Children Being Sexually Abused
NEWARK, N.J. – A Bergen County, N.J, man who allegedly advertised, distributed and collected images and videos of adults sexually exploiting infants and toddlers is expected in Newark federal court today to face an Indictment charging numerous related offenses, U.S. Attorney Paul J. Fishman announced.
The 8-count Indictment unsealed this morning charges Edward M. De Sear, 65, of Saddle River, N.J., with three counts of advertising child pornography, four counts of distributing child pornography, and one count of possessing child pornography.
De Sear – who at the time of his original arrest on a federal Complaint was a partner at the New York office of an international law firm – had been released on bail following his arrest on a Complaint charging him with one count of distribution. He was taken into custody again this morning in light of the nature of the additional charges.
According to the Indictment unsealed today and other documents filed in this case:
De Sear used an Internet-based peer-to-peer file-sharing program to advertise, distribute and download hundreds of images of child pornography. In seeking out "friends" on the peer-to-peer file-sharing network, De Sear used a picture of a young boy to represent him as his avatar, and invited individuals with usernames that contained terms such as "boy," "child," and "little" to join his peer-to-peer network.
De Sear named one of his file-sharing folders "BoysCute," and made files with graphic, descriptive names available for sharing in his folders. He also allowed his "friends" to preview the content of his shared files in thumbnail view to select which files to download, and used the peer-to-peer program's chat function to make specific offers to distribute and display child pornography with descriptive titles.
The chat messages sent by De Sear to an individual with the username "boycuddle2" included De Sear's observation: "best are guys who have kids of their own to share . . . there is a network of those guys," but it is "hard to get into that club without a kid[.]"
De Sear regularly viewed and shared child pornography from the kitchen of his home, sometimes leaving his computer running overnight so that the child pornography files he had selected using the file-sharing program could download while he slept.
In 2010, De Sear regularly logged onto the file-sharing program using his then-employer's wireless "guest" network. During one of these sessions, De Sear distributed multiple child pornography files to an undercover law enforcement agent by having placed the files in his file-sharing folders on the peer-to-peer network.
De Sear faces a mandatory minimum penalty of 15 years in prison and a maximum potential penalty of 30 years in prison for each of the three advertising of child pornography charges. In addition, De Sear faces a mandatory minimum of five years in prison and a maximum potential penalty of 20 years in prison for each of the four distribution of child pornography charges. De Sear faces up to 10 years in prison for the possession count. Each charge also carries a maximum $250,000 fine.
U.S. Attorney Fishman credited special agents of the FBI Newark Division's Cyber Crime Task Force, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Michael B. Ward, for the investigation.
The government is represented by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Shirley U. Emehelu and Leslie Schwartz of the U.S. Attorney's Office Criminal Division in Newark.
The charges and allegations contained in the Indictment are merely accusations, and the defendant is considered innocent unless and until proven guilty.
Defense counsel: John Vazquez, Esq.; Michael Critchley Sr., Esq., Roseland, N.J.
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) announced that federal disaster aid has been made available to the State of New Jersey.

Sean is currently attending the University of California, Berkeley, where he is studying business and computer science. Last year, after losing nearly 20 pounds and missing all of his winter finals, Sean decided to use his computer skills and business knowledge to launch Crohnology.com, a Web site that helps people with inflammatory bowel disease manage their disease. The site allows patients to create online virtual medical charts and track their diagnoses, medications, surgeries, procedures, and diets. Despite having to manage flare-ups and the day-to-day duties of overseeing a Web site, Sean has maintained a 3.725 GPA.
A professional singer-songwriter from an early age, Rebecca was diagnosed with Crohn's when she was 11 years old.

Robert is a special deputy US marshal, a master SCUBA diver, and an underwater archeologist. After completing a master's certificate in government contracting with a 4.0 GPA, Robert now aims to pursue a master's degree.
As a Spanish-education major, Emily always knew she would have to study abroad in a Spanish-speaking country. But despite her excitement, she approached her semester in Segovia, Spain, worrying about maintaining Crohn's treatments in a foreign country. Emily had to deal with a logistical nightmare involving doctors in 2 continents, her university, and her insurance company. Regardless, she still made the most of her experience, and has since worked to help educate others facing similar challenges. Emily is currently attending Bethel University, majoring in Spanish education.
Michelle has maintained an active life as a Crohn's advocate while struggling with her own condition.

If you still haven't figured out that wearing black chadors will save your worldly soul and that wearing lipstick and heels will get you sent to the hellfire, Iran's "Cyber Group for Promoting Chastity and the Veil [Ifaf]" is here to clear that up for you. They are sponsored by the Iranian government and have a sleek website where you can view their posters, buy t-shirts, and brush up on hijab laws in Iran!
They have a new ad campaign for "good hijab" (because, you know, chastity really only has to do with women) that includes its centerpiece, "A woman without hijab is like a chair with three legs" (poster pictured on right). The ad campaign has several posters, which range from the strange and incomprehensible to the skeevy, yet well done. But their message is clear: women without hijab aren't real, practicing Muslim women and are intellectually and spiritually incapable of measuring the dangers presented by their clothing choices.
"A woman without hijab is like a chair with three legs" is the most incomprehensible of the posters for me, both visually and textually. Why three legs? Because we as women are somehow incomplete without hijab? Lacking in a solid foundation? Because we can't be used to sit on? Clothes can do all that? Really?
A second poster (pictured below left) shows a red stiletto on a platform that is being sawed through. Once the sawing is complete, the stiletto will undoubtedly plunge, along with its wearer, straight into the hellfire. By way of explanation, this poster simply says "Feminism" in two languages, most likely implying that the road to hell is paved with feminists! Also, are red stilettos feminist, then?
Another jewel in the collection is "Eyes are a trap of the devil. Imam Ali (A.S.)" Does it really refer to the hadith refers to the evil in impure glances, or that wearing colored aqua-colored contacts while looking at people is bad? As a big fan of lipstick, I was also pleased to find out that 22 lipsticks are sold in the world every second. But what I didn't know is that lipsticks are also bombs that contribute to the fall of civilization with every little explosion. Interesting…that has never happened to any of my lipsticks.
The masterpiece of politico-religious symbolism, however, falls to two posters using the same texts:
"Each chadori [chador-clad] woman is as a flag of the Islamic Republic of Iran."
These posters outline what the Islamic Republic wants: all women looking and dressing identically in the chador, as a uniform. As Sarah Khorshid Doost points out (in personal correspondence), these posters hijack the Green Movement slogan "we are uncountable," which became popular after the election protests of last year. As the slogan is used in reference to unity, its use for such an exclusive and divisive means in this ad campaign is really disturbing. However, there is a history to this and many of the Green movement symbols being hijacked before (as with Ahmadinejad himself wearing a green shawl at his "victory speech" two days after the elections).

Baggy sweater, cargo pants, sports bra - an every day armor. I spent my high school years shielding myself from the outside world with these clothes. I didn't attract anyone's attention, I slid by.
While my classmates were dating, I was training horses.
While they were drinking, I was becoming a black belt in karate.
While they were partying, I was reading and planning my future.
I did things in high school that make me proud. I knew what I wanted and went for it. I didn't love the way I looked and had wanted a boyfriend, but I made the most out of my life, which is important. I could have spent those four years, trying to fit in and get attention. Instead, I figured out what I wanted to do and did it.
When I moved to New Zealand, I met a friend who helped me pick out my first bra. When I moved into my first flat, I started wearing more feminine clothes. When I was ready, I began peeling off those layers of armor to begin a new adventure - dating.
I love the way I look, I love the life I lead, I love the people in my life.
I love who I am and who I was. I love how I've changed.
I have made so many mistakes but that is a part of me. I'm imperfect and loving it.
Loving yourself is an action - you need to do it, to make it work. Continue loving yourself by bringing more of what you want into your life. And if you need to hide from the world for a day, wear a baggy sweater.

A: Pours black with a mocha head.
S: Nose has dark roast coffee, some dark chocolate, but very little vanilla.
T: Strong dark roast coffee followed by a decent amount of vanilla, then dark chocolate and more coffee in the finish.
M: Full bodied and not smooth... until it warms up. Vanilla becomes much more noticeable and the body becomes smoother and creamy.
O: Definitely drink this a bit warmer than your average beer. It's a solid vanilla porter. I definitely like the style.

Poured a deep brown, almost black, with a thin tan head that dissipated to a tan ring, leaving a slight bit of lacing. Looks quite nice, but a bit dark for a porter. Scents of roast malt, vanilla, and slight coffee. A good porter scent with the nice addition of vanilla. Flavors of roast malt, slight dark chocolate and black coffee and some slight sweetness throughout, finishes with more black coffee and a slight hint of vanilla at the end. Aftertaste is bitter with black coffee and dark chocolate. A good classic porter flavor with a nice bit of vanilla. Mouthfeel is medium bodied, slightly thick, with low carbonation. About half-way between a porter and a stout and quite easy to drink. Overall quite the nice vanilla porter, it drinks smooth and has the nice flavor of a porter supporting the vanilla.

In searching for a certain vanilla porter I had on a vacation that I failed to write down or snap a photo of, I came across this offering. some solid value here, with a 22oz bottle going for $5.
The vanilla is not that prevalent, the opposite of what I was worried about. Much more malty and stout-ish, with a faint vanilla finish. Good mouthfeel with a dry, sightly bitter finish.
A good beer, well made, but nothing I would rush to get again.

The 10 trigger-happiest states in America
Urban states with heavy gang populations such as California and New York aren't particularly high up on the list of per-capita gun killings, though of course in terms of absolute numbers they look like murder capitals because of their big populations. Mid-size Southern states seem to be the places people are trigger-happiest -- and where, of course, political opposition to gun control often runs strongest. Perhaps that's because most of the bloodletting happens in Southern cities, and it's in rural areas -- where gun violence is slight -- that gun rights are held most sacred. --Dan Turner

Pennsylvania( Matt Slocum / Associated Press )
Have a Colt with your cheesestake; Philly's got a plentiful supply of guns. Pennsylvania has 3.69 gun killings for every 100,000 residents. Coincidentally, it also ranks No. 10 on on the Brady Center score card, with 26 points for the strictness of its gun laws.

NOAA Fisheries Service implemented the Atlantic Large Whale Take Reduction Plan (ALWTRP) to reduce injuries and deaths of large whales due to incidental entanglement in fishing gear. The ALWTRP is an evolving plan that changes as NOAA Fisheries Service learns more about why whales become entangled and how fishing practices might be modified to reduce the risk of entanglement. It has several components including restrictions on where and how gear can be set; research into whale populations and whale behavior, as well as fishing gear interactions and modifications; outreach to inform and collaborate with fishermen and other stakeholders; and a large whale disentanglement program.

Title: | Hands Off to H1N1! |
Author(s): | Pionek, Lindsey |
Abstract: | "The H1N1 flu virus has created quite an uproar this flu season. However, research of the symptoms, prevention and spread of the virus, has shown that H1N1 follows the same mode of action as any other influenza virus. Using typography as artistic communication, Hands Off! to H1N1 depicts a clean hand in a dirty environment, showing how hands acquire a plethora of microorganisms through daily activities. Such microorganisms, which may include the H1N1 virus, can easily be picked up and transferred to others. This public service announcement works to educate and provide awareness to the general public in a non-threatening manner. Hands Off! to H1N1 was created using Adobe CS4 Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign. My work in the Biomedical Visualization program has provided me with the ability to not only render scientific art accurate, but to also make projects attractive, educational and attainable to all individuals no matter their educational level." |

e-Vet ALERT: With the Holiday season upon us, we want to make sure your pets stay safe
PET SAFETY: There are a number of potentially dangerous situations surrounding your pets and the Holidays.
Decorations can be potentially lethal if eaten by your pet. Cats are notorious for consuming tinsel, used to decorate trees. These strands of shiny plastic can become entrapped in the bowel and lead to intestinal obstructions. Make sure decorations are out of reach from your pet.
Accidental or intentional ingestion of human foods by pets is a common source of illness and even death over the Holidays. Chocolate and raisins are around in abundance during this time of year and both are toxic to dogs. Feeding leftovers to pets has caused more than one case of pancreatitis; so resist the temptation to overindulge your pet.
Finally, be careful with those treats made especially for animals.
Monitor how much and how often rawhides and other chews are given. Over consumption can lead to intestinal blockage or gastroenteritis. If your pet quickly devours these types of treats be certain to space them out over a few days.
We want you all to have a Happy and Safe Holiday Season!

SIMSBURY, Conn. (WTNH) -- U.S. Senator Chris Murphy who is pushing hard to have the nation's gun laws tightened spent part of the day at the State Police gun range in Simsbury.
At the state police gun range, Senator Murphy got to see up close, the sheer power of an assault weapon.
"Depending on where you have your magazines configured on your body, the quicker you can do a re-load," said one state trooper.
Murphy came here to learn about the difference between a semi-automatic weapon which fired 18 shots in about five seconds and a fully automatic rifle that can fire off 30 shots in roughly three seconds.
Police experts explained the often subtle differences, that make one rifle legal in Connecticut but a virtually identical model against the law.
"But the lethality of this weapon versus this weapon, right, the difference in folding stock has nothing to do with the lethality of the weapon," said Senator Murphy.
Murphy is pushing legislation that calls for tougher background checks, a specific list of banned military style weapons and a ban on the type of high capacity magazines that can make these weapons killing machines.
"I think we should get them off the street, I think that these kind of weapons that are derivatives of military style guns should still be in the hands of the military, but we want to get the definitions right," said Senator Murphy.
Before leaving the range the Senator was asked about the second amendment and if the legislation he's calling for violates an American's constitutional right to bear arms.
"The real second amendment has always given people of this country through their elected leaders the ability to decide what guns are reserved for the military, what weapons are reserved for the military and what weapons are available to the public," said Senator Murphy.
And Senator Murphy requested that demonstration by the state troopers so he'd have a better perspective on the gun control measures he's pushing for on Capitol Hill.

Extending my site
26 September 2007 at 9:15am
I'm trying to extend my site to include an employee page, where users could upload a photo and enter a bio. I've created the class extensions in EmployeePage.php, but it doesn't seem to be updating the database because my new page type doesn't appear in the dropdown menu in the Behaviors tab.
I went to www.mysite.com/admin/db/build?flush=1 and it did a bunch of processing, but I don't see anything new.
What might be going on, here?
Re: Extending my site
27 September 2007 at 1:38am
You might have to flush the backend as well so it reloads all new classes / configs.
(e.g. www.xxx.com/admin/cms?flush=1) -
Re: Extending my site
27 September 2007 at 7:58am
No luck. I checked my DB, too, and it doesn't appear to have done anything. This is what I have defined in /code/EmployeePage.php:
* Defines the EmployeePage type
*/class EmployeePage extends Page {
static $db = array (
'Title' => 'Text',
'Bio' => 'Text'
static $has_one = array (
class EmployeePage_controller extends Page_controller {
This should work, right? I'm following the tutorial for expanding a basic site.
Re: Extending my site
27 September 2007 at 9:03am
not sure if it makes any difference but when I add pageTypes I generally run www.xxx.com/db/build?flush=1 rather from under the admin section ie admin/db/build?flush=1
hey maybe worth a try.

hey i'm new to this only trying to help
So enlighten me if its not correct and the reason why instead of taking the mick.
I had this happen but then try again or do different things and then seems to work like logging out and back in and the page types are there maybe a cache thing didn't write everything down that did or didn't work.
Re: Extending my site
28 September 2007 at 12:22am
no no no !
I wasn't laughing at you !! I laughed at the situation that we totally missed the incorrect URL and were focussing on the code itself.
Sorry for the misunderstanding there ;-)
Re: Extending my site
28 September 2007 at 2:13am
Okay! The new URL should definitely work. I get prompted for a username and password when I navigate to it, though, and NOTHING WORKS!!!
I've tied my CMS login, my database login, and everything else imaginable. What's the deal? Where can I find this information?
