The Aftermath: Patriots @ Colts
Another Take on 4th and 2
Three Super Bowl Championships, to a franchise as moribund as the New England Patriots had been when Bill Belichick took over, carry with them a cache of good will. Which, when accompanied by a little more than two bucks, will get you a large coffee regular at Dunkin' the morning after a tough loss against a hated rival on national television. Dems da breaks, Bill. I only interpret the rules, I don't write them. What's worse is that the criticism is in many ways unfounded. Belichick consistently through his tenure at the helm of the Patriots has gone for it on fourth down, no matter where he is on the field. This call was a case of being true to who Belichick is as a coach. But that fails to soothe the bruised egos of the fan base in Foxboro.
Time for a game of hypothetical roullette. Let's say the play is successful. The Patriot's get a first down and then run the ball at the Colts on first down. Indy calls timeout—their last. With a little more than a minute and a half, New England really needs to suck up as much time as possible to wind the clock down. Running play, nets anothe couple of yards, and the clock keeps ticking to the full forty. Under a minute now, another run up the gut another forty seconds tick away. And with fourth down arriving, another choice needs to be made, go for it again, kick it away. A successful execution of the fourth and two would not have clinched the game, but with a fresh set of downs, New England's probability of winning would have been enhanced. Had the play succeeded, and New England won, the response would have been, what a smart call by Belichick. Kicking it away is playing safe, largely because conventional wisdom says it is so. Going for it is a different animal. One that has prompted diverse sources in the blogosphere to rally to Belichick. The Sports Economist while quoting Advanced NFL Stats' examination of the actual probabilities involved, remarked:
Rather than "stupid," "dumb," or "insulting," this is is the kind of decision making that has made Belechick better than most NFL coaches. Risk aversion, media response (even if coaches deny it), or lack of analytical skill drives many coaches toward applications of "conventions" even when those conventions don't make sense. Belechick is willing to go with the analytics and live with it. After all, it's not how it turned out after the fact that makes it a good or bad decision, it's the likelihood going in.
I'll openly disagree with the final sentence. The result matters, a whole lot. If the result was irrelevant, there would be no risk. The failure of the play should call into question the decision making process. Fans feeling the stinging taste of bitter defeat clinging to their lips rarely find solace in analytical pieces documenting the rightness of decisions that don't work. They are and always will be results oriented. Did it work? No. Boooooooo. Bill Belichick, parodied as Darth Bill and dozens of other less pleasant monikers, has a thick skin. I'm sure he could care less that the NFL's chattering class thinks he cost his team the game. And by sitting on his lead and not doing a better job of managing the clock, (as documented below) he in many ways did not maximize their opportunities to win. Equally dismissed, I'm sure, are the comments supporting his decision. He knows he was right. He will do it again. The comments are like the buzzings of flies. And yeah, I'll take my coffee with extra sugar today, thanks.

Bill Belichick: Genius or Idiot?
3rd and Long: Patriots @ Colts Preview
The War of 1812
Perhaps the most instensely debated issue in football over the past decade is whether Tom Brady or Peyton Manning is the NFL's premiere quarterback. On Sunday night, the two QB's may meet for the last time in the 00's. It could be the last chance for either of them to prove why they should be considered the top quarterback of their era. There have been thousands upon thousands of words written on the subject. Brady supporters point to his three Super Bowl titles. Manning fans reply with Peyton's overal superior statistics. Tom's backers counter that when Brady had the recievers, he broke all of Manning's records. Peyton's camp retorts that when Manning had a supporting cast on par with Brady's he took the Colts to the Super Bowl. It's a debate that may seemingly never end...
2. Worst press conference moment
Calling Mike Vanderjagt an "idiot kicker". Look, we all know that Vanderjerk needed to keep his mouth shut, but you don't throw your teammates under the bus like that - especially if you're the team leader.
3. Lamest Advertisement
Peyton Manning will clearly shill for whatever company or product will throw some money at him. I'm still waiting for him to show up in a Valtrex ad. "Hello, my name is Peyton Manning, and I have genital herpes." However, until that one hits the airwaves the Oreos Double Stuff Racing team has to take the cake.
I bet Archie Manning wished he had a vesectomy after watching that one.
4. Worst Player Backed Up in College
Todd Helton - the guy plays for the Colorado Rockies!
5. Lamest Photo
Finding a picture of Peyton Manning looking like a goober is like finding a three leaf clover. There are so many to chose from, but this one of Manning and Dungy about to french kiss may be my favorite.
You won't ever see a shot like that from Brady and Belichick. Those two celebrate using a secret handshake where they clang their eight combined Super Bowl rings together.
6. Worst facial feature
Peyton Manning's head is more dysmorphic than Stewie Griffin's. One of my favorite things in life is a Peyton Manning interception, followed by him angrily ripping of his helmet to reveal that gigantic forehead of his, all angry and red from being stuffed inside his helmet. It's a beauiful sight to behold.
At least he's found a way to put it to good use during those balmy summer nights in Indianapolis!
7. Wussiest Rule Change
After Peyton Manning pitched a hissy fit about the Patriots defense roughing up his receivers, the league changed the league cracked down to help the Colts out a bit. Notice how the Pats/Colts rivalry became decidedly less one-sided after that change was made...
8. Biggest scandal
Peyton Manning mooned a woman in college which ended in a lawsuit.
9. Lamest Celebrity fan
Kenny Chesney and Peyton Manning have a recorded duet where they sing the following lyrics.
Whatever it takes to win your love
I hire me an airplane, have it paint your name up in the sky above
I tell the world I'm yours, put it on a billboard out on the interstate
If it takes forever to get us together
Honey I'll do whatever it takes
The Road Ahead...
The season is half-way over and the New England Patriots stand 6-2. It's been a fairly turbulent ride - the opening night nail-biter, the Jets upset, two big wins against the black birds, a heart-breaking OT loss to Josh McDaniels' Broncos, two thrashing - one in October snow, the other in London, and finally a battle against the wildcat for AFC East supremacy. For somebody who envisioned smooth sailing early on, much like 2007, the first half of this season has been quite the surprise. I never thought the Patriots offense would struggle the way it did early on. I also never saw the defense being as dominant as it has been. Joey Galloway getting cut? No way! Brandon McGowan becoming a defensive star? Never! Yet even though things haven't gone quite as planned, one thing remains the same nine weeks later - I believe the New England Patriots are a Super Bowl team.

Game Recap: Patriots vs. Dolphins
Before we break down the Patriots' performance, let's give take a moment to congratulate Joey Porter on his incredibly insignificant performance. Nothing like running your mouth non-stop leading up to a game and then posting a row of zeros in the stat column.
Joey Porter 2009 Game Log | |||||||||||||||
In order to not be a complete hater, I will give credit to the Dolphins' play callers for keeping the Patriots on their toes. I honestly thought there would be no way that Miami could unleash the wildcat successfully with Bill Belichick coming off a bye week. Early on, it seemed that New England would steam roll the Dolphins. However, the Fins got incredibly creative with their formations to the point where I was sweating a bit in the fourth quarter. There's certainly something to be said for keeping a defense guessing. It lead to some big plays for Miami today. In a must-win game against a superior opponent, it kept the Dolphins alive to the end.
3rd and Long: Patriots vs. Dolphins Preview
As promised, I'll be doing a game preview for each weeks match-up. I'm calling this segment "3rd and Long", because I plan to go over three hot topics/things to watch for in each preview. It was also the first name that came to me during the approximately eight seconds I spent thinking about what I should call my game previews. So while the name is subject to change, it's what we're going with for this week at least.
1st Down: The Most Annoying Sound in the World
If you thought that was bad, try listening to the latest batch of Joey Porter sound bites. First there was talk of how he has a natural "hate" for the Patriots.
"My feeling towards New England goes back further. It goes back to my Pittsburgh days. I feel a certain way after some things came out, way back when. There was some AFC championships I lost to them a couple times. Come to figure out a couple months later why we lost. So, yeah, I have natural hate for them. Period. And that's just going to be with me forever. That's not going to change. You can fill in the blanks. You know exactly what I'm talking about. And they know exactly what I'm talking about. And that's not gonna change from my thought process on that situation.''
Joey, if blaming your lack of execution on a video camera helps you feel better about yourself, then hate away. Clearly a video camera is responsible for a punt return touchdown and a blocked field goal touchdown in 2002. Foxboro Blog would also like to thank the good folks at Sony who got us the latest model of the Handycam just in time for the 2005 AFC Title game. We would've never been able to pick off Rothlisberger three times en route to a 41-27 drubbing without it!
Bottom line, Joey Porter can continue to run his mouth and say asinine things like how Brady "influences" the refs. New England does their talking on the field. The only annoying sound Porter will be hearing tomorrow are the muskets firing after a slew of Patriots' touchdowns.
If I Build It...
Welcome to Foxboro Blog, the official home of the New England Patriots on the Bloguin Network! I've been covering the Patriots on my personal website, DeROK.Net since 2002. During that time I've had the honor of chronicling two Super Bowl titles, a 21 game winning streak, a perfect regular season, and a host of other memorable moments. Now it's time to ramp up the coverage of my favorite team with a full-fledged blog of their own. The goal is to build this site from the ground up and become the internet's leading Patriots community. I managed to do something similar for my favorite NBA team, the Minnesota Timberwolves, but I only got there through a ton of help from our super-star staff. I believe that Foxboro Blog can repeat that success, but only with similar contributions from my fellow Pats fans. If you'd like to help contribute, feel free to drop me a line using the contact link on the main menu. At the moment, my plan is to have a weekly schedule that includes a game preview, a game recap, and power rankings. However, I've got a lot on my plate managing our 100+ sites on the Bloguin Network, as well as writing for DeROK.Net, TWolvesBlog.com, and my day job as a pediatric resident. Honestly, I have no idea how I'm going to run this site on my own, but I couldn't let Bloguin go without coverage of the Pats for any longer. Also, I'm a huge fan of that Kevin Costner guy and believe that if I build it, the writers and readers will come. So hopefully you'll keep coming back as we cover the Patriots each week, as well as hot topics like Rex Ryan's diabetes, Eric Mangina's epic failues in Clevland, and Nextel's recent attempt to purchase advertising space on Peyton Manning's massive forehead.

For the past five years we've tried to bring you sets of numbers and statistics that provide a different glimpse into the world of SEC football. One of the most telling stats we've come up with is what we call the "Quick Strike" measure.
Obviously, the goal in football is to put up as many points as possible. The fewer snaps it takes a team to do that, the less chance for errors like penalties and turnovers. Quick Strike provides a simple look at how many points each offensive snap is worth to a given team. Literally, it reveals the number of points scored per offensive play run.
But Quick Strike is not just an offensive measure. Special teams scores and long returns can speed up how quickly a team piles up points. Turnovers can provide short fields for offenses. Defensive touchdowns are even more valuable as a team does not even need to run an offensive play and risk a turnover or penalty in order to put points on the scoreboard.
Turns out, we aren't the only math geeks out there who like this stat. A bigger math geek than those of us here at MrSEC.com — and we mean that in a good way — has tested our numbers, applied them to the Big Ten, and found that there's a clear correlation between a good Quick Strike number and wins in that league as well. You can find the analysis of ElevenWarriors.com here.
Now, the deeper we get into the season, the more telling this statistic will become. Eventually, we'll begin using only numbers from SEC-versus-SEC games. For now, however, we must use the points scored and plays run against all FBS opponents.
So without further ado, here are the Quick Strike numbers to date for the SEC's 14 teams versus FBS competition.
School | Pts/Scored vs FBS | Off. Plays vs FBS | Pts/Off. Play |
Georgia | 241 | 336 | .717 |
Alabama | 201 | 316 | .636 |
S. Carolina | 183 | 323 | .566 |
Texas A&M | 123 | 235 | .523 |
Florida | 122 | 263 | .463 |
Miss. State | 88 | 192 | .458 |
Tennessee | 146 | 325 | .449 |
Ole Miss | 112 | 277 | .404 |
Kentucky | 109 | 341 | .319 |
Auburn | 70 | 238 | .294 |
Missouri | 75 | 285 | .263 |
Arkansas | 67 | 284 | .235 |
Vanderbilt | 29 | 187 | .155 |
* Georgia is the rare offense that has the ability to score via big plays through the air and on the ground with freshmen tailbacks Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall.
* Alabama might not be flashy, but they're efficient. If not for having to settle for four field goals against Ole Miss last week, the Tide would be even closer to Georgia in terms of points per play.
* LSU has shot itself in the foot quite a bit with fumbles, red zone turnovers and penalties, but against FBS foes it really hasn't mattered a whole lot yet.
* Mississippi State only has 88 points versus FBS foes on the year, but they've also needed just 192 offensive snaps to post those points. Why? Because MSU leads the nation in turnover margin and Tyler Russell and company are cashing in on short fields provided by State's opportunistic D.
* Coming into the season, who would have guessed that Missouri (with James Franklin) and Arkansas (with Tyler Wilson) would rank 12th and 13th in the conference in this Quick Strike measure? Yes, there have been some extenuating circumstances and both of those QBs have missed a game this year, but still, to see the Tigers and Razorbacks near the bottom of the SEC in an offensive category is rather surprising.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is increasingly recognized as a public health concern. Definitive diagnosis is by overnight polysomnographic (PSG) examination. Identification of clinical predictors would be beneficial in helping prioritize high-risk patients for assessment. Practical application of morphometric predictive variables would require a high level of reproducibility in a clinical setting. In this study, our objective was to evaluate reliability between observers in measurements of candidate morphometric parameters in women.
This was a prospective study of 71 women who had been referred for PSG with suspected OSA. Selected morphometric parameters were measured independently in the sleep laboratory by two trained sleep physicians.
Neck circumference and truncal measurements for lower costal, midabdominal, and hip circumferences had higher reliability coefficients (intraclass correlation coefficients [ICC] of 0.78, 0.95, 0.95, and 0.81) than the smaller dimension measurements, including cricomental distance or retrognathia (ICC of 0.04 and 0.17). Of the women participating in this study, 50 of 71 had apnea-hypopnea indexes (AHI) ≥ 5. Body mass index (BMI), neck circumference, lower costal girth, midabdominal girth, and hip girth were all significantly higher (p < 0.001-0.004) in women with AHI ≥ 5.
There was wide variation in inter-observer reliability for different physical dimensions. We propose that any clinical morphologic measurement employed in predictive modeling should be reliably reproducible in clinical setting conditions. Our findings support the use of several truncal measures, BMI, and neck circumference as predictive measures in women undergoing evaluation for OSA.

Born on April 22, 1986, and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, Amanda Berry vanished one night right before turning 17. She would reappear ten years later in May, 2013, screaming for help from a house with her six-year-old daughter and making her way to freedom with the help of neighbors. Berry was allegedly held hostage along with two other women by Ariel Castro. Case details continue to be revealed.
Missing Person
Amanda Berry was born on April 22, 1986, and grew up in the Cleveland, Ohio area. As a teen, Berry had secured work at a local Burger King, but one night inexplicably vanished walking home from the job. She had last been seen on April 21, 2003, the day before she turned 17. It would later be revealed that a man, Ariel Castro, had lured her into his vehicle.
Berry was listed as a missing person, with her mother Louwana Miller agitating for there to be more coverage concerning her daughter's disappearance and dispelling any notions that Berry had run away. Miller died with her daughter still missing.
Cry For Help
Then, on the evening of May 6, 2013—a decade after her disappearance—Berry appeared in the doorway of 2207 Seymour Avenue screaming for help. Angelo Cordero and Charles Ramsey came to her aid, with the two men later offering conflicting accounts of their involvement, and helped Berry break through the door of the house. A 6-year-old child accompanied Berry as well.
Berry found shelter nearby and called 911, stating, "Help me, I'm Amanda Berry. ... I've been kidnapped and I've been missing for 10 years, and I'm, I'm here. I'm free now." Two other women who had vanished years ago, Gina DeJesus and Michele Knight, were being held as well and were rescued that evening by Cleveland police forces who arrived at the house.
Berry Reunited With Family
Berry and DeJesus were reunited with their families on May 8, 2013, and Berry's sister Beth Serrano made a public statement thanking well-wishers. At that time, Knight was still hospitalized. The Cleveland Courage Fund was set up to provide resources for the trio of women.
Ariel Castro Arrested
Police soon arrested Castro, 52, the owner of the Seymour property who was out drinking when Berry made her escape. Castro reportedly kept the women chained in the basement of the home for long periods of time, that they had almost never left the property and that they generally endured horrifying treatment. Berry had a daughter, Jocelyn (the 6-year-old child who accompanied her at the time of her escape), while being held captive, and a paternity test conducted after her escape proved that Castro was the father.
With his siblings arrested as well but not brought up on any charges, Castro was formally accused of kidnapping Berry, Dejesus and Knight between 2002 and 2004, and of keeping them hostage at his Cleveland home until Berry's 2013 escape, in June 2013. He was indicted on 329 charges, including 177 counts of kidnapping, 139 counts of rape, and two counts of aggravated murder for forcing abortions—for which Castro could face the death penalty.

Reason over Force: The Gun is Civilization (Marko Kloos).
Many of the drugs that are causing this behavior are legal synthetic marijuana that are sold OTC as "incense", pipe cleaner, and "bath salts". There was a 60 minutes show on a few nights ago about this. Every time a state outlaws the active ingredient in one product, the chemists quickly tweak the formula and out comes another legal one. Its a global business worth in the billions yearly. They sound like they are much more dangerous than marijuana and can have delusional and sometimes deadly consequences. Seems to me like they are much more dangerous than plain old mary-jane.
I know that this is going to get some hell-yeah's from some and hell-no from others, but I believe that there are more good reasons than bad for decriminalizing, taxing, and regulating marijuana. I have never heard of anyone (who wasn't already of the murderous persuasion or psychotic) getting stoned on plain old pot and going on a psychedelic murder rampage like those on synthetic don't-know-what-you're-getting marijuana.

HQL vs. HiveQLKeith Wiley 2012-07-03, 17:59
I have found references to both HQL and HiveQL (as abbreviations for Hive Query Language) as the name of the SQL-like language Hive uses. Is there a formal and definitively correct name in this regard or are both considered equally appropriate? I'm writing up a white paper and want to use the right term.
Thanks. ________________________________________________________________________________ Keith Wiley [EMAIL PROTECTED] keithwiley.com music.keithwiley.com "And what if we picked the wrong religion?

Choosing output formats for instrumentation transmitters
Why isn't it easier to offer user selectability of signal format for field devices?
Dear Control Engineering: The article about new gas flowmeters says that the company is using a more modular transmitter that makes it easier for the user to select a signal format. Why aren't more companies doing that? Having to change field devices is a major drag on trying to use a more sophisticated networking technology.
One of the more interesting aspects of the flowmeters that FCI has introduced is the modularity of its transmitter. While most devices are hard wired to one specific format (e.g., 4-20 mA with HART or Foundation fieldbus), these new devices offer a plug-in module to allow users to change the output format.
I don't know if this is the first time somebody has done this, but it certainly is not a common feature. Typically a transmitter is indeed fixed to a given protocol. This fact has made the process of migrating to a more sophisticated networking protocol much more expensive. For example, if all the devices in a process unit use 4-20 mA or some older analog voltage signal, you'll probably have to replace them all if you want to move to a fieldbus. FCI has promised that its new transmitter is future proof in the sense that if you do need to make such a change, you can change the module (assuming the right format is available) and not the whole device. The company plans on using this approach with larger portions of its product line as time goes on.
To my thinking, a typical flowmeter or pressure sensor ought to come with a universal transmitter that is software configurable or you set a group of DIP switches to give the connectivity you want. Set it yourself for anything from 4-20 mA, Modbus, USB, Profibus, Foundation fieldbus, or any number of industrial Ethernet flavors. Maybe we'll even throw in wireless. That isn't quite practical yet, but I doubt it is far away. Some protocols still depend on a dedicated ASIC which is probably why having a plug-in component is still a requirement. My approach is probably still much too expensive, but might be here sooner than you think.

Watch the Crone
How an Instant Punk Legend Became a Celebrated Arts and Letters Lifer
Now that it's happened, it seems obvious that Patti Smith would one day follow her muse to the writing of a book. Since exploding onto the American music scene in the mid-1970s, Smith's words have always taken center stage. The opening line of her debut album Horses—"Jesus died for somebody's sins, but not mine"—lives forever not because of its musicality or Smith's vocal delivery, but because of its literary power and genius placement at the top of a rock song that builds into an unhinged cover of Van Morrison's "Gloria."
A deep connection to text has been part of Smith's art from the start. As a fledgling artist, she immersed herself in what she considered "sacred texts"—Blonde on Blonde, Let It Bleed, Electric Ladyland, the poetry of Arthur Rimbaud—studying the drives and totems of the rock canon. To make her own art, Smith drew more than inspiration from her heroes. Beyond mimicry, Smith plugged into something deep and mythical about what rock means and is capable of doing, and about what's made humans want to bang out rhythms and scream since the void went flash. Following the Zen instruction on emulation ("Don't do what I do—seek what I seek"), young Smith identified the work of Dylan and Hendrix and the Stones as exemplars of what the rock 'n' roll impulse can accomplish and lit out on her own path, accompanied by the words and spirit of the libertine poet Rimbaud. (Why pinch from Jim Morrison when you can pinch from the dude he's pinching from?)
The results were immediately explosive. After the half-rock/half-performance-poetry single "Hey Joe"/"Piss Factory," in 1975, Smith unleashed the legendary, still-startling Horses, and she has remained queen of her own musical universe ever since. Patti Smith's influence is felt far and wide, but not even the best of her emulators (Michael Stipe, PJ Harvey) can touch her. Michael and Polly may be successful managers of lightbulb factories, but Patti Smith is Thomas Edison.
The enduring value of Smith's music is by now common knowledge. Horses gets the majority of the ink, because it came first and remains frighteningly brilliant. (The pair of word-drenched love songs in the middle—"Free Money" and "Kimberly"—still compose my favorite stretch of Smith on record.) But there's extraordinary music to be found across her oeuvre, from 1978's brilliant-from-start-to-finish Easter to 1988's cruelly underrated Dream of Life to 2012's mystical Banga.
But, of course, the most significant of Smith's recent accomplishments is her 2010 memoir Just Kids, which tells of her life in early-'70s New York with Robert Mapplethorpe, earned excellent reviews, and ultimately won her the National Book Award. Bob Dylan's Chronicles: Volume One had proved that rock stars can write seriously good books, and Smith's Just Kids carried on what I hope will be a continuing tradition. (Get to work, Springsteen and Morrissey.)
But where Dylan's Chronicles (brilliantly) trafficked in the same type of wordplay and mythmaking found in the man's songs, Just Kids finds Smith in a completely new mode of expression: plainspoken, direct, almost stringently concise (especially compared to the cross-dimensional word torrents found in her songs). Where the best parts of Chronicles captured how deep the Dylan myth runs, the best parts of Just Kids rip Smith's otherworldly rock goddess image to shreds. In one key scene, Mapplethorpe reveals his homosexuality to Smith, who can't hide her initial shock and disdain. (The moral: Smith wasn't born Patti Smith Mother Poet Spirit, just a girl from New Jersey, who grew up in the 1950s and learned as she went along.) Despite her near-beatification by fans, Smith has always sought to assert her humanity, whether it meant withdrawing from rock to raise a family or explicitly explaining what people see when they look at her: "Some strange music draws me in, makes me come on like some heroine." Or is it heroin? Whatever the case, it's from 1979's "Dancing Barefoot," and it's still the best description of Patti Smith there is.

TM When did you first meet Bob Dylan?
PS Backstage at the Bitter End. We didn't have a drummer yet. It was just the four of us, we hadn't been signed yet.
TM Did you see him in the audience?
PS No. Somebody told us he was there. My heart was pounding. I got instantly rebellious. I made a couple of references, a couple of oblique things to show I knew he was there. And then he came backstage which was really quite gentlemanly of him. He came over to me and I kept moving around. We were like two pitbulls circling. I was a snotnose. I had a very high concentration of adrenaline. He said to me, "Any poets around here?" And I said, "I don't like poetry anymore. Poetry sucks!" I really acted like a jerk. I thought, that guy will never talk to me again. And the day after there was this picture on the cover of the Village Voice. The photographer had Dylan put his arm around me. It was a really cool picture. It was a dream come true, but it reminded me of how I had acted like a jerk. And then a few days later I was walking down 4th Street by the Bottom Line and I saw him coming. He put his hand in his jacket—he was still wearing the same clothes he had on in the picture, which I liked—and he takes out the Village Voice picture and says, "Who are these two people? You know who these people are?" Then he smiled at me and I knew it was all right.

Great fish oil
My kids who are 10,8, and 4 have been taking this fish oil for a couple years now. At first they were not crazy about the taste but they tolerated it. Recently we have been a bit lazy about giving it to them and their lack of focus is really starting to show. So here I am again ordering more.

With summer heating up, the Connecticut Humane Society has several tips to help keep your pet healthy and cool during the dog days of July and August.
Pet owners are advised never to leave their pet in a parked car during warm weather. Even with the windows cracked and the car parked in the shade, "the inside of the vehicle can become a furnace in a matter of minutes," according to Connecticut Humane Society website.
"It is never safe to leave your pet in a parked car during the summertime," Connecticut Humane Society Public Relations Director Alicia Wright said Friday morning. "Inside temperatures can increase to over a 100 degrees in a matter of minutes, putting your pet at risk."
If the animal is exposed to the high temperatures for too long, it could lead to a fatal heatstroke or heat exhaustion.
Wright advised pet owners to limit their animals' outside activities to the early morning, keep dogs and cats inside air conditioning and in the shade whenever possible and always make sure they have plenty of water.
"Remember hydrate, hydrate, hydrate," she said. Also, pet owners should walk their pets on the grass because the asphalt or concrete can heat up quickly and hurt their paw pads.
The onset of heatstroke can come on quickly and pet owners should be mindful of the signs, which include excessive drooling and panting. Some animals, such as pugs and Persian cats require extra care and are more prone to overheating, due to their flat faces. If you suspect your animal experiencing heatstroke or showing signs of it, pet owners are advised to bring their pet to the veterinarian immediately.
The Connecticut Humane Society is located at 701 Russell Rd. in Newington and its phone number is (800) 452-0114. The hours of operation are Monday through Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information, visit the Connecticut Humane Society website.
