Gyptian My Name Is
- Words: Eric K. Arnold
- Label: VP
It was only two years ago that roots crooner I-Wayne was being hailed as the future of reggae, but an uneven album didn't equal the promise of a couple of hot singles. Like I-Wayne, Gyptian frequently employs falsetto voce to carry across conscious themes, yet My Name Is rests on a solid red-gold-and-green bedrock-it would be an above-average album even without the instant classic "Serious Times." DJ Flavor's riddims continue dancehall's retro-influenced trend with rub-a-dub bubblers and meditative nyahbinghi drumming, while Gyptian alternates between two personas: common man in love and concerned Rasta.

- Yield:
- 4 (2 1/2 cup) main course servings
- Level:
- Easy
- 1 medium shallot, thinly sliced
- 1 bunch broccolini (about 10 ounces), stems cut into 2-inch stems, and florets
- 1 medium bunch radishes, trimmed and very thinly sliced
- 12 ounces whole-wheat rigatoni
- 1 tablespoon sherry wine vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 7 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
Put the shallots in a bowl and cover with cold water. Soak for about 10 minutes; drain.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it generously. Fill a medium bowl with ice water and salt it as well. Add the broccolini to the boiling water and cook until crisp-tender, about 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the radish slices, and cook 30 seconds, more. Use a slotted spoon or strainer to scoop out the vegetables and plunge them immediately into the ice water. Drain the vegetables, pat them very dry.
Add the pasta to the same pot of boiling water, and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, about 8 to 9 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Whisk the sherry vinegar, orange zest, the 3/4 teaspoon salt and pepper, to taste, in a large serving bowl. Gradually whisk in the oil, starting with a few drops and then adding the rest in a steady stream, to make a dressing.
Toss the rigatoni, broccolini, radish and shallot with the dressing. Add the feta cheese and toss lightly. Serve warm or room temperature.

high blood pressure
Find a Conversation
|Sun, 06-06-2010 - 12:15pm
hi, all,
has anyone heard of someone being rejected for egg donation because of high blood pressure? My blood pressure was borderline (140/90), but spiked when I was doing my physical for the screening application. Have been monitoring it every day per the doctor's request and it is now below 140/90. I'm really scared that I'm going to get rejected for egg donation now!
|Mon, 06-07-2010 - 12:24pm
thanks, Gabrielle. We have our psych eval today, more tests tomorrow, then my mammogram on Thursday. Then, we might be accepted to get in line! The whole thing is -- obviously -- making my blood pressure go up!
|Mon, 06-07-2010 - 7:03am
I can't see why it would affect you. 140/90 is not that high. I would have them do your BP twice, once at the beginning of ther screening and then wait 10 min to see if it drops. I know if they do mine in my pregnant state if I even walk it goes up but if I still after walking for even 5 minutes it drops. Basically the only thing that will keep you from being accepted is a malformed uterus (according to my RE). the rest they can work with.
Good luck!

When You Love Someone, Sighs Matter
Published December 26, 2012
A short story by Lisa Brown
I haven't been successful at the art of love. When I say that I haven't been successful, I mean that I've failed at it miserably and in every way conceivable. My first true love was a young man named Burt. He was in the first grade. I was in the first grade. He liked Scooby-Doo. I liked Scooby-Doo. It should have been a perfect match. It wasn't. Burt (and it still stings to write this 42 years later) hated me. He informed me every chance he got that I had something called "cooties." I initially thought he was trying to say "cuties" (because of his two missing front teeth), which made me love him even more. But then, my best friend Nancy, who apparently was cursed with cooties too, informed me that it meant Burt felt that I was inflicted with girl germs and should never be touched or looked at in any way whatsoever. This was a crushing blow for a 7-year-old, and it was probably the first time I let out a big long sigh, shook my head and walked away from love. Unfortunately at that age, it's not like you can fix yourself a dry martini and hang out with the Rat Pack to get over your broken heart. So I did the next best thing that a 7-year-old in 1970 could do - drank a lot of Tang, watched a few episodes of H.R. Pufnstuf and pulled myself together. Truth be told, this is the exact way I get over most things to this day. I'm pretty much an expert at "sigh" language. Case in point, if my first boyfriend had been able to decipher the types of sighs I was sighing, we might have had a much longer relationship than one and a half days. I wanted to go to a romantic seaside restaurant for our second date; he wanted to go to McDonald's while they still had the McRib for sale. I sighed very loudly before agreeing to McDonald's, and therefore he thought that he had won the conversation. He thought wrong. He got his McRib, but he lost me (I fell into the children's ball pit at the McDonald's and sank to the bottom). He eventually found me but then lost me again when I broke up with him. Had he listened to my sigh right before saying yes to his dinner plans he would have known it was a very bad sigh, and we definitely should have gone to the place I chose. So what have I learned? If a woman makes a deep heavy sigh before agreeing to anything, it's probably a good idea to retreat and do the opposite of what she has just agreed to. For example: If a husband says the following, "Sweetheart, I really think my mother should come live with us. We can give her the master suite and turn the kitchen pantry into an extra bedroom for us," and the wife inhales for 30 seconds or so before letting out an overly loud sigh and then says "fine." It's not. There is the sigh you make when you know something is ending.This is the resounding sigh. I knew my marriage was over the day my ex-husband and I were watching the news and there was a story about a man who taught his rabbit to get on a surfboard at the beach. I turned to my husband and said, "That's funny. Most people don't like to get their hare wet at the beach." And to my dismay, he didn't laugh. I remember sitting in the living room, the sun was shining, the birds were singing, and I just let out a very long sigh and knew that things would never be okay for us again. Twelve years later I told him just that! I think I made him stay married to me that much longer just to punish him for not laughing at my joke. But I really do remember that sigh to this day, and that was almost 25 years ago. Resounding sighs are hard to forget. I've only made one other sigh like that in my entire life. My Grandfather had passed away, and I loved him tremendously. As a 14-year-old, I had to make myself walk up to his casket and say goodbye. I remember the deep long sigh that I took at the moment I was able to make my feet finally move. It was a sigh that was full of hurt and fear and sadness and love, and I've never sighed exactly like that since then. Lisa, can you give us an example of a good sigh? Yes, as a matter of fact I can! Suppose you're with your man at a plus size woman's dress shop called "Beefy Fashions," and due to an unnatural love of all things cheese, the only item that fits you is a horizontal striped pink and orange cape. I'm not saying this happened to me; it's just a tremendously specific example. Suppose that when your beloved sees you in the aforementioned cape he takes a deep sigh and says to you, "Orange really brings out the green in your eyes. You've never looked lovelier." The sigh that follows something like that is considered a very good sigh. Clearly the man is lying. But sometimes when you're wearing a pink and orange cape you need to know that your size doesn't matter. Also you may need to eat less cheese. "But that's another story," (she sighed).

Last night I attended a ChicagoRuby Hack Night. It was my first one, and well worth going to. The topic was Ruby 1.9 and how it differs from 1.8. The format was very casual. There was a written introduction to 1.9, and attendees randomly paired up to explore the intro on their laptop's irb command line. It was a good opportunity to meet like-minded people and geek out on some cool new language features. Here's what I learned about Ruby 1.9 at the ChicagoRuby Hack Night:
- Varargs can now appear anywhere in a method definition
- Block parameters are now like method parameters: they can have default args and varargs
- Since symbols-as-keys hashes are so common in Ruby there is now a concise way of writing it.
{ :a => 1, :b => 2}can now just be
{ a: 1, b: 2 }(hash literals).
- Hashes now retain creation order. I'm mixed on this. A classic hash algorithm won't maintain order for the sake of speed. If you want order, use an array. I feel like Ruby is blurring the lines here, much like it does with the distinction between arrays and linked lists in the Array class. However, hashes are used so frequently in Ruby that this is a welcomed feature.
- The Fiber library introduces a lighter-than-light-weight-threads way of doing concurrency. Granted you have to schedule the concurrency yourself, so you better know what you're doing, but in simple cases this can be an improvement over firing off Threads.
- The CSV library is now FasterCSV. I currently use FasterCSV as a gem. The less gems I have to worry about the better.
Cool stuff, and I'm excited to use it in production. Now I just need to upgrade!
By the way, since I haven't upgraded my system Ruby yet I played with 1.9 via the Ruby Version Manager (RVM), an easy to use command line tool that allows you to keep different versions of Ruby on your box and switch between them with ease. It works great!

"This was perfect for my son's graduation party. I was easily able to customize the whole card including how I wished the invite to read. This was my first time using this service and was done with the process very quickly with a quality product.."
"-make sure to use photos from a real camera not a camera phone, those look best, especially in the big box -Paper was not flimsy photo paper, it was good quality -the colors came out vivid, the photos cam out clean cut Also they were delivered promptly and in good condition Im definitely using them again ps I was worried at first about all the bad reviews but for this specific card the "Studio Basic Grad announcement with stenciled date" I had no problem."
"We were able to use several different poses. Feminine border but still could use school colors. Easy to upload pictures. Put in graduation information and still had room for a poem. We had such great feedback from family and friends. Everyone commented on how personnel it was The price was great, less than annoucements ordered from school."
"Tiny Prints offered the best selection and value for graduation cards. I was able to pick three of our favorite photos to add to the card. We were able to customize the wording on the card. Family & friends loved the cards. They thought we paid a fortune because of the high paper quality and customization. If you are looking for an option other than the standard graduation card, Tiny Prints is the way to go."
"Tinyprints website was so user friendly, personalizing the card took almost no time at all and looked fantastic. I could hardly wait for the cards to arrive ... when they did I was not disappointed - the quality was high, the pictures were crisp and clear and the whole package was phenomenal. Everyone loved my announcements and I will be placing many more orders with Tinyprints in the future - thank you!!"

Top law enforcement officers in Hawaii honored
Hawaii's top law enforcement officers are being honored by a coalition of agencies in the state.
Honolulu Prosecuting Attorney Keith Kaneshiro won the Law Enforcement/Security Coalition of Hawaii's top award at a banquet on Thursday. A letter from the coalition says the award is presented for outstanding service and activity that benefits law enforcement, private security or criminal justice.
Kaneshiro congratulated other honorees by saying law enforcement is a truly noble profession.
Other honorees include an NCIS special agent who investigated a case in which three Pearl Harbor shipyard employees were accused of trying to sell 30,000 pounds of government scrap metal worth about $1 million.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Beverly Wee Sameshima won an award for earning a conviction against a couple who ran a large cockfighting operation in Waianae.

If you are downloading files through a BitTorrent client without doing anything to protect your identity, it's only a matter of time before you get a letter in the mail saying that you were caught uploading a copyrighted product as a torrent or become the victim a file-sharing lawsuit.
It is a good thing that there are programs that can protect your online identity from the outside world and potentially save you hundreds—maybe even thousands of dollars – in lawsuits. Some of them are free and some of them aren't, but all of them are effective at concealing your IP.
VPN (Virtual private network)
VPNs, or virtual private networks, allow you to conceal your address and location while using BitTorrent torrents. For a few bucks a month, VPNs will hide your data and your connections. There are some free virtual private networks as well, but they will most likely give you a much slower downloading experience. StrongVPN, Itshidden and Ipredator are the most popular VPN services, but there are much more of them out there.
Anomos is a file sharing protocol based on the BitTorrent which was modified to offer anonymity. Only the central tracker possesses information about IP addresses, and does not share it with anybody. The good thing about it is that it is free. However, it's a pity that it is incompatible with regular torrent files and provides lower download speeds.TorrentPrivacy
It is a TorrentReactor.net-operated service that uses a proxy server. Before signing up, you are provided a test to prove that your torrent downloads will be completely anonymous. You won't need to configure the client, as it has been pre-configured. You will need, however, to pay $10 a month for using this program. Also, only Windows users can use this service so far.
BTGuard is probably the most popular paid service for hiding your online identity while using BitTorrent clients. Very much like TorrentPrivacy, it uses a proxy server to conceal your IP-address from other people. The service works on Windows, Mac and Linux based computers, with virtually any BitTorrent client. The program also offers an encryption solution for total security. As almost all good things, it doesn't come for free – you will have to pay $7 a month to ensure your anonymity.

Seattle just changed their minimum wage to $15 per hour (that's the city, but not the surrounding suburbs). Tim Worstall outlines what we may see in this handy real world economic experiment:
The first and most obvious effect of a $15 an hour minimum is that there are going to be job losses. Don't forget that the message from the academic literature is that "modest" increases in the minimum don't seem to have "much" effect on employment levels. And we'd all agree that a $100 minimum would have rather large effects. So our puzzle here is to try to decide what is the definition of "modest". Clearly $100 an hour isn't. But also we can dismiss something like $1 an hour as being problematic. Since no one at all gets paid a sum that small making the minimum $1, or $1.50, has no effect on anything whatsoever.
The best result we have from the academic literature is that a minimum wage in the 40-45% region of the median wage has little to no effect on unemployment. The reason being similar to that of a $1 one. So few people get paid so little that it just doesn't affect the wages of anyone very much. The same research tells us that once we get to 45-50% of the median wage then we do start to see significant unemployment effects.
This $15 an hour in Seattle will be around 60% of the local median wage. We would therefore expect to see reasonably large unemployment effects.
We would also expect to see unemployment among high school graduates rise very much more than the rate in general. For this minimum applies only inside the City of Seattle: it doesn't apply to the surrounding counties or suburbs that aren't part of that political jurisdiction. Imagine that you were a college graduate having to do some basic work to make ends meet while you were waiting for that career opening. If you're going to get $7.25 outside Seattle and $15 inside it you'd probably be willing to make the trip each day to earn that extra. Of course, as a high school graduate you would too. But now think of yourself as the employer. You've got the choice of a college graduate or a high school graduate, both willing to do the same job at the same price. Who are you going to hire? Logically, the higher grade worker, that college grad.
So we would expect minimum wage jobs within Seattle to be colonised by those college grads at the expense of those high school ones. We would therefore expect to see a much larger rise in the unemployment rate of those high school grads as against the general unemployment rate. In fact, we'd expect to see this happening so strongly that we'd take the empirical evidence of that widening unemployment gap to be evidence that it was this minimum wage rise causing it.

Thunder and Lightning: Massive Storms Halt Trains in Germany
Powerful thunderstorms struck across Germany on Tuesday evening, resulting in the suspension of rail traffic on many of the country's main arterials. Additional chaos is expected, with more heavy weather on the way.
The last few weeks in Germany have been hotter than usual. So it should perhaps come as little surprise that the thunderstorms in recent days have also been more violent than normal.
Following the heavy thunderstorms on Sunday, which severely impeded train traffic throughout much of southern Germany, Tuesday night followed with a show of its own. Huge storms with strong wind pummelled the southern and eastern part of the country as lightning strikes uprooted trees and put a halt to train traffic on several rail arterials.
Train travel proved particularly challenging in the Frankfurt region; all long-distance lines to and from the city were closed on Tuesday evening as was part of the high-speed link between Munich and Berlin. The train station at the Frankfurt airport was likewise closed due to damage inflicted to the building as a result of the storm.
The rail line between Berlin and Hamburg was likewise closed for hours after strong winds toppled several large trees onto the tracks. Tens of thousands of travellers were stranded as a result of the closures, though the Berlin-Hamburg line was reopened in the late evening, according to Deutsche Bahn. Elsewhere, however, the tracks remained blocked for much longer.
More Storms Coming
Despite the high winds and heavy rains, the Frankfurt airport was closed only briefly, for a period of 30 minutes. "That is routine for such strong storms with lightning and high winds," said an airport spokesman, according to German news agency DPA. Severe delays were largely avoided.
When it came to more serious damage, however, Bavaria took the brunt of it. A lightning strike on a farm in the town of Feldkirchen, just outside of Munich, triggered a large fire which killed 250 pigs. In Regensburg, a lightning bolt hit a house and elsewhere in the state, several cars were damaged by falling trees and branches. There were also several minor injuries in Bavaria and elsewhere in Germany as a result of falling branches.
Berlin too saw its fair share of storm related chaos on Tuesday night. The fire department was sent out 180 times between 10 p.m. and midnight, a spokesperson told DPA. "It was a mixture of things. Flooded cellars had to be pumped, fallen trees removed and streets freed of water."
More storms are coming. The forecast for Wednesday calls for additional strong thunderstorms for much of the country.

It's a Zoo Here
Remember that woodpecker feeder I installed a few posts back? Are you surprised that the squirrels have been fascinated by it? Honestly, I'm not…but I think it's pretty ballsy for a squirrel to climb the feeder and try to grab peanuts out of it…right..in…front..of…me.
That said, I'm really happy to report that despite the attempts of the squirrels to devour the nuts, it has attracted the attention of the woodpeckers:
Hard to see, but there he is. Staking claim and pecking away at the nuts. So, score one for the birds!
Speaking of animals, a family of fawns has been coming by regularly now. I'm not leaving food out for them, so I'm not sure why they come to the same spot, almost everyday. But the large bushes of wild blackberries might have something to do with it. Aren't they adorable?

how lisa tichané defines lifestyle photography
by Lisa Tichané
During every run of my Capturing Joy workshop, a topic seems to come up repeatedly, "How much should the photographer interfere with what is going on in a lifestyle session? If we are asking our subjects to do something for us, is that cheating? Should we catch joy when it happens organically, or is it okay to make it happen?"
To me, these questions all come down to how we define "lifestyle photography".
I'm not pretentious enough to declare that(…)

Anyone looking to start a new hobby should most certainly consider collecting shot glasses. I find it to be immeasurably more fun than the more common stamp or coin collections that everyone seems to have. The fact that shots of alcohol can be drunk from the items of your collection is what makes shot glasses the coolest things to collect.
Aside from that, shot glasses come in all kinds of different sizes and shapes and with various types of engravings and pictures on them. A collection of such shot glasses displayed in your living room will be an object of envy to your friends and a topic of many conversations.
How to Collect Shot Glasses
There are many different ways by which you can get your hands on shot glasses. However, for someone looking to start collecting, the best way to do it would be to pick them up on your travels. Try to find a shot glass from each new place you visit.
You could find them in souvenir shops or small bars and pubs. Collecting them in this way ensures that each shot glass will bring back a memory and will have a story to tell, and such a collection will be an invaluable tribute to your travels. There are other ways to get shot glasses such as through the internet, and as your collection grows and you're looking for specific types of glasses and so on, you could explore these avenues.
What to Do With the Collection
Once you have a collection that's big enough, you would want to display it. While collecting shot glasses is fun in itself, it's also great to display it and share the fun with your friends. How you display it is actually very important. The best way to display it is probably to keep them in display cases designed especially for shot glasses. Such cases look classy and they bring out the best from your collection. If you went about your collection the right way, a lot of the shot glasses will have their own stories regarding the place you got it from or the trouble you went to get it. To share these stories with your visitors, it's important to display them well.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Archive for December, 2011
This New Year's Eve, do yourself and your pets a favor. Make sure that every pet is indoors and safe. Most pets hate fireworks, and if your neighborhood is like mine, it will sound like Beirut in the 80′s for several hours on New Year's Eve.
Something most pet people don't seem to know is that January 1st and July 5th are the two biggest days of the year for the reporting of lost pets. Think a minute – what do those two days have in common? You guessed it. Both follow a night of crazy people lighting things on fire to watch them go boom.
Pets don't like it when things go boom. Calm, normally well-behaved pets can go completely berzerk. They may dig out of the yard or climb over the fence. They may hurt themselves trying to get out of a crate. They may become sick from stress, with results that are bad for both your pet and your carpet. I've even heard of panicked pets tearing up furniture or other household items.
With some forethought and planning, these disasters can be avoided.
A few years ago, I was on my way to town one rainy morning in early January when I was forced to stop traffic to get to a terrified poodle shivering in the middle of the road. I ended up boarding the poor little guy at my vet's office for a week while we searched for his owners. I had just about given up the search and resigned myself to bringing home another senior dog when one of my students happened to mention that a family in her neighborhood was missing a poodle.
Thank God. It was the right family. This little old guy has been in the yard, with their other dog, when the fireworks started. The dogs were often left overnight in the yard when their people travelled, with access to shelter, beds, and food in the garage. It had always been fine before. But they had never been gone on a fireworks night. Apparently he freaked and clawed his way through the fence. When I found him, he had been out for two days, was 8 to 10 miles from home, and would have had to come through some very dangerous territory to get there.
He was lucky. He got to go home.
So how do you protect your pet?
- Don't leave your pet alone if you don't have to, especially if it's his first exposure to fireworks.
- Don't leave your pet outside.
- Don't crate your pet unless you know how he will react or can be there to supervise – some dogs will try to claw or chew out of the crate and can do themselves serious damage in the process.
- Do put your pet in the quietest part of the house – even if it's a walk-in closet. Use the walls and doors to muffle the sounds of explosions.
- Do talk to your vet about sedation, if you know your pet panics when the noise starts. Benadryl (diphenhydramine hydrochloride) is a common option. Check with your vet before you use it to confirm a dose, but the standard dose is 1 mg per pound of bodyweight.
- Do use the television or the radio to provide cover noise for the fireworks.
- Do offer treats to help keep your pet calm and focused on food instead of sound.
The bottom line is that your pet depends on you to keep him safe. Please, don't let him down. Especially not on New Year's Eve, when it's cold outside and there are fireworks all around.
This evening was a very important one in the world of animal welfare in Montgomery County, Texas. It marked the first board meeting of the newly formed Montgomery County Animal Society.
You may recall the recent debates over privatizing the shelter. The county commissioners made the decision to privatize, and granted the contract to Care Corporation. As a corporation, the new management company will also need to have a nonprofit (a 501c3) affiliated with the shelter.
That's us.
It is my privilege to have been elected President of the brand new board of directors. Other members currently include Diane Mayne (Secretary), Danice Berger (Treasurer), Minda Harris, and Laura McConnell.
One of our first tasks was to define our function, which will be to raise money for ways to improve the chances and comfort of the animals passing through the shelter. Care Corporation will be responsible for meeting the regular needs of the animals – food, water, shelter, and ordinary medical needs. Montgomery County Animal Society will focus on a few major areas:
- Providing funds for major veterinary needs like emergency surgery for injured animals.
- Working on ways to increase adoption rates, through special events, publicity, and providing funds/treatments that will make the animals more adoptable.
- Working on making the shelter more comfortable for the animals, which will help keep them happier and healthier, and thus more adoptable.
This represents a major change in the institutional structure of the animal welfare system for Montgomery County. I absolutely believe that Care Corporation will implement significant improvements in the shelter itself. They'll improve the working conditions for the employees, make the shelter hours more accessible to the community, and be able to hold the staff more directly accountable for maintaining the facility and the animals in the best shape possible.
We (the Montgomery County Animal Society) will come in when there are extraordinary needs. When that animal who was hit by a car comes in, we will be able to provide funds for the necessary surgery. When an animal with acute mange arrives, we can authorize the funds for treatment. When the shelter needs equipment or beds or toys that are not in the regular budget, the Montgomery County Animal Society will hopefully be able to provide those items.
Once 2012 arrives, I ask that you would donate money to help the Montgomery County Animal Society get off the ground. That's the thing about a nonprofit organization – we rely on the generosity of the public to help us meet our goals. The more donations we receive, the more animals we can send to the vet for life-saving procedures, and the better we can help make life for the thousands of animals who will come through the shelter doors in 2012.
I know this is a huge change. I believe it's going to be a great one, and I'm thrilled to part of it. But we can't do it without you.
The Montgomery County Animal Society can legally begin to accept contributions after January 1, 2012. Want to donate? Email me at firstname.lastname@example.com for information.
As a veteran of the animal welfare world, I often find myself trying to explain AW to people on the "civilian" side of the equation.
Communication is one of the biggest issues "civilians" complain about. And from their perspective, I can't blame them. So I'll attempt to shed a little light on the subject, and maybe make a couple of suggestions.
The scenario usually goes like this (and I have been on both sides of this one)…
"There's this stray dog…I could catch him, and bring him to the rescue group. I'll even donate the cost of his care. But the rescue won't call me back!"
I admit it. It's frustrating. It's bad business not to return phone calls from potential adopters or longtime donors. From the consumer viewpoint, trying unsuccessfully to reach someone at a particular group makes the organization looks unprofessional, negligent, hard to deal with…you get the idea. And frankly, not responding in a timely fashion or at all to communication from potential adopters or donors will cost the organization money, because eventually potential adopters and donors will get frustrated and take their money to more responsive groups.
But let me try to explain it from the insider perspective.
Most rescues are all volunteer organizations. Most volunteers have full time jobs, personal pets, and kids, in addition to their rescue responsibilities. The spaces between those obligations are filled with rushing to and from shelters and vets, washing dogs, walking dogs, medicating dogs, cleaning up after dogs, doing the laundry generated by the dogs, buying dog food, checking out potential adopters' references, arranging off-site adoption events, and too many other things to list.
Even those organizations with paid staff are understaffed. Their people run full speed from dawn till dark and then some. Animal care always, always comes before people. And if we're going to be completely honest about it, some of the people who are the best with the animals are …not so good with people.
For the civilians: Don't call. Email. Rescue people often can't get to the phone easily during normal human operating hours. We tend to answer emails in the middle of the night or very early in the morning. You don't WANT us to call then. If it's an emergency, be persistent. Mark the email urgent. Keep trying. And try to understand that there are always more dogs than spaces in rescue groups. If they can't take in the stray you found, it's not a personal rejection. It simply means that your stray either does not fit their intake parameters, or that they have no room at the inn.
For the rescuers: I know how easy it is to bog down in the details of caring for the animals. But those people whose calls and emails you didn't return might have been the perfect adopter or the biggest donor you ever had. You HAVE to communicate to keep your adoptions up and the donations coming in. If the main players in the organization don't like dealing with two-legged animals, designate one of your more social volunteers to field calls and emails. Like any charitable endeavor, running a successful rescue program requires a certain amount of interaction with the public. And a large part of that interaction will be educating people about things we assume they should already know.
Rescues need to remember that good communication from their organization benefits the animals, and the general public simply must understand that rescue is not a 9 to 5 office job with long lunches and paid holidays.
And those of us in rescue need to step up to bridge that communication gap…for the good of the animals.
On December 10th, a truck was stolen in Houston, near I-10 and Bunker Hill.
That's not particularly unusual. And they found the truck shortly thereafter near 225 and Allen Genoa, although I don't know in what condition. What they did not find was the Golden Retriever who was in the truck when it was stolen.
Her name is Maggie. She is an eight year old girl, adopted from Golden Retriever Rescue of Houston. She is, of course, spayed and microchipped, and she was wearing identification when she was taken with the truck.
If you see her or hear anything about her, please contact GRRH at email@example.com.
Everywhere I have gone lately, I have seen dogs left in vehicles. And far too many of those dogs are in vehicles with open windows (and therefore functionally unlocked). Since most of them are friendly, tail-wagging, and barking hopefully at anyone walking by, they are pretty much an animated welcome mat for car thieves.
We all know that you can't leave pets (or, for that matter, small children) in cars during hot weather. Vehicles heat up an alarming 19 degress in just ten minutes, and 34 degrees in 30 minutes. And that's in ambient temperatures of about 80 degrees. Think what must happen in a hot Texas summer. And the studies show that cracking the window does little except make the vehicle more accessible to thieves.
However, in cooler weather, people stop worrying about weather and don't think twice about leaving pets in cars. Please don't do that.
Here are just a few things that can go terribly wrong…
- Most people's vehicles have all kinds of detritus under the seats. An unrestrained pet may go exploring and ingest who knows what. And you may never know they did until they get sick.
- There have been cases of unrestrained pets knocking a parked car into gear. Try explaining that one to your insurance company. Or to your spouse!
- If you leave the window cracked, your pet might inadvertently hang himself by snagging a collar or wedging his head into too small a space and getting stuck. Or if you leave a slightly larger gap, you might have an escape on your hands.
- And then of course, there is the possibility that your vehicle might be broken into. They may just steal the pet (especially if the animal is an obvious purebred like Maggie) or they may take the vehicle with the pet in it. And if your pet attempts to defend the vehicle, they may hurt him.
Please, keep your pets safe. Leaving them alone in a vehicle, even for just a few minutes, puts them in danger.
And do me a favor. Keep a sharp eye out for Maggie, especially if you live in that part of Houston. She's already been rescued once. Let's bring her home one more time.
Those of us who live and breathe animal welfare spend a lot of time deeply appalled and confused by the things humans do to animals.
People regularly throw pets away at the shelter because they get "too expensive." I regularly hear comments about how no one else would take the time, energy, and money I do to care for Bumble the Special Child. Someone very close to me was recently told by a man that he didn't want to date her any more because she has dogs and will always want to spend time, money, and energy on them.
And these are the milder examples.
Those of us in the animal welfare world fight a constant battle against ignorance, neglect, stupidity, and outright cruelty. We get frustrated and worn down, but we never quit, because we can't.
Below is an open letter written by fellow Pekingese aficionado and rescuer Carl Grossman. With his permission, I'm going to share it here. He very eloquently says what most of us have wanted to tell all those people who just don't get it.
"Dear Idiot at the vet's office yesterday,
You were aghast that we have 12 dogs. That we have taken in strays and worked with a rescue organization. You said you could not imagine having enough time and love and,oh, all that work. That having one old dog was nearly too much for you and that if the bill was too much this time you would put that dog to sleep. I corrected you at that point. It is not "to sleep". It is putting the dog down. Euthanasia. Dead. No longer alive.
At that point I might have been a bit animated. The office lady was looking at us. I then told you about Roadie. The boxer we found in the street. Scared, starving and sick. Our first rescue. How we did not have enough money to have his heart evaluated and the mange he was covered in treated. How we turned to friends who donated to help. How he now lives on a farm in Texas.
I told you about Elvis Pupsley. My dog. My best friend. Who died despite the $2500 we spent to find out what was wrong with him only to find out that we could not have done anything to stop the embolism. How I miss him. Every day. I know you really thought I lost it when I teared up. I tried to explain to you how when people have a pet they have an obligation to care properly for that animal. To love that animal.
They brought Mugsy out to me. You saw this old dog, older than yours, who has a skin issue. You asked me how old he was. I said he was about 13 or so. We really did not know because he was a rescue. You were surprised that we did not "buy"him because he is obviously a purebred. He was, at one time, a perfect Pekingese looks wise. Now he is old. We just keep him comfortable and fed. He likes that.
I moved to the counter to pay my bill. I heard your "Oh my goodness" when the office lady said "That will be $214, Mr. Grossman". You asked me "How can you afford that with 12 dogs?"I answered you…
"How could I not?"
You went into the exam room and I started to leave. Thinking it over, I turned and came to your exam room and knocked. I told you that if the expense of your dog exceeded what you could honestly afford, that the vet had my name and number at the front desk and I would see what I could do to help. I also offered to adopt your dog on the spot if you wished to avoid the expense (yes, I love weiner dogs and Chub is the twin of our Limo) and trouble any further. I was polite and you thanked me. As I left the room your wife spoke. For the first time. She told you to shut up, the dog was hers too and that he would be getting whatever he needed. You were not putting him down. She loved him even if you didn't. The last words I heard her say were "I can't believe I married a selfish idiot."
Me either, lady. Me either.
One of the most important factors in the success of shelters and rescue groups is the foster program. Fosters get the dogs out of shelters and into homes where they can develop social skills, get better food and living conditions, be treated for any veterinary issues, and generally learn how dogs should live in a home where people love them.
Fosters are awesome. They spend their own time, money, and emotional energy to care for and rehabilitate animals that they then have to give up. The reward is huge, but it often comes at great emotional cost.
When you decide to become a pet foster parent, you take on certain very specific responsibilities.
First, the obvious responsibilities include taking excellent care of the animal, keeping him safe, teaching him acceptable behavior (and hopefully house training), monitoring interaction between foster pets and permanent pets, and helping to find the right adoptive home for him.
Depending on the structure of your foster program, you may be called on to help promote adoptions, screen adopters, administer medication, do physical therapy, deal with behavioral issues…the possibilities are endless. But regardless of the nature of the program, you will eventually have to let your baby go to a forever home. That's what it's all about.
Let's talk about some of the less understood rules of fostering. These are the ones that are often not thoroughly addressed in orientation materials, and fosters may not be clear on their legal obligations under the foster contract.
For the program to work, everyone has to follow the rules.
- Rule 1: The foster does NOT own the animal. The shelter or rescue group is the legal custodian of the animal. The foster is authorized to care for and house the animal by the custodial organization.
- Rule 2: The custodial organization has the right to make decisions about the placement and veterinary care of the animal. If the organization decides to move the animal to a different foster, they can do that. If they ask that the animal be returned to their facility, they can do that. Failure to surrender an animal to his legal custodian constitutes theft.
- Rule 3: Paperwork matters. Rescues and shelters can be audited. If they can't account for where every animal is and for the money spent on that animal, there can be penalties. They can lose funding, they can jeopardize their nonprofit tax status, they can lose pull privileges. Always keep up with your paperwork.
- Rule 4: Every organization gives its fosters authorization to make certain decisions about the animals in his or her care. Make sure you have a clear understanding of what you, as the foster parent, can and cannot do. This is one case in which it is NOT better to ask forgiveness than permission.
Being a foster parent is something you do because you are called to help animals. The more carefully you follow the rules of your organization, the more animals you can help. Flouting the rules can hurt the organization, and it can even result in the organization removing animals from your care and taking you off their list of approved fosters.
And that helps no one.
I don't mean to make fostering sound rigid and rule-bound. It really isn't. But I have recently observed problems in several organizations I'm acquainted with because fosters refused to follow the rules. Please understsand that the rules are there to protect the animals and the organization. Follow them, so that you can continue to help more animals.
Isn't that why we volunteer in the first place?
I got home a couple of hours ago after taking Bumble the Special Child for his weekly laser therapy session, fed the animals, and then went outside with Oliver and Elizabeth for their evening walk. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw movement under the neighbor's truck. Since skunks, possums, and other not-dog-friendly animals are not uncommon around here, I paused to take a look.
And here she came. A tiny, rumpled dustbunny of a kitten. She made a beeline for me, meowing pitifully in her very small voice.
Oliver and Elizabeth were beside themselves. A kitty! And a little one at that! As far as they were concerned, she was an animated squeaky toy.
She was not impressed with them. So she kept her distance, but followed us down the street, talking up a storm. So I took the dogs in the house (they were not pleased) and went back outside. Itty bitty little girl ran straight to me. When I picked her up, she was shivering from cold, and under her Raggedy Ann fur, she was painfully thin. She crawled inside my jacket and settled herself on my shoulder where she could purr in my ear.
You may not know that I have "rescue radar." That is the invisible force that draws stray animals in need of rescue directly to my door. It's brought me a half-starved Golden Retriever and a mange-ridden Anatolian Shepherd puppy (both of whom now live in luxury with my parents), a feral cat who appears at my door whenever he's injured and needs help, and countless homeless animals over the years.
This time it brought me a tiny but very assertive and very affectionate kitten.
The thing is, I already have three dogs, one of whom is supremely special needs. I also have Minerva Louise ( a former feral cat who is now a pudgy middle-aged floozy) and the Hitchhiker, a people-friendly, animal-hostile tomcat who is trying to decide whether to live here or just vacation with us. (If he hangs around much longer, his attitude will be surgically adjusted in short order.)
The last thing I can afford to do is adopt another animal. But there was categorically no way that I could leave a shivering, hungry, lonely kitten outside all alone in the night, especially not after realizing that she would be easy prey for an owl or hawk. My Rescue Radar drew her to pick me instead of one of the other people out walking their dogs. (I have to admit that sometimes I wish the Rescue Radar was a little less accurate…)
The vet clinic will keep her until I can either find her a home or get her into a rescue.
I called my cousin, another victim of Rescue Radar Syndrome, and asked her to keep the kitty overnight and take her to the vet clinic in the morning. She is now tucked in for the night in my cousin's house, after a good dinner and lots of attention.
Much purring. And one tiny little smack to the nose of my cousin's inquisitive dachshund.

December 22, 2014
The mountains of Southeastern Kentucky aren't exactly known as a great producer of Major League talent, but two players are flying in the face of that.
Mark Reynolds - 3B/1B, Arizona Diamondbacks (Pike County Native)
Reynolds is in only his second season in the Majors, but already he has made a name for himself. Reynolds has already been considered an All-Star snub. That's an honor normally awarded players who proven themselves. Check out the numbers he has put up this season:
.270 Batting Average, .543 Slugging Percentage, .901 OPS, 25 Homeruns, 63 RBI
Reynolds has been the top 3rd basemen in the Majors HRs and RBI for most of the season. He also shown some serious glove work. On the down side, he swings and misses a lot. He also tends to make a lot of errors. But if you consider the fact that he is only in year number of his Major League career, we could be looking at a future perennial All-Star here.
Josh Anderson - OF, Detroit Tigers (Pulaski County grad, EKU)
Anderson had 2 strong performances in his first 2 seasons in the Bigs (even if both were short). Josh is now with team number 3 in his third season (Astros then Braves were his previous 2 other teams). His numbers are down a bit this season:
.248 Batting Average, .288 On-Base Percentage, 22 Runs, 13 Stolen Bases
Anderson doesn't have the pop that most teams are looking for from their outfielders. If he could find a way to get his batting average back up around the .300 mark (he was batting over .300 for his career before this season) he could get more playing time. He's shown to have a good glove and speed in the field. And he has found a roster spot with the Tigers as a pinch runner and defensive replacement late in games. His speed and glove will keep him around for a while, but he needs to get his average back up if wants to become more of an everyday player... which he just might.
On a personal note, I have met Anderson and his family a couple of times. I honestly didn't know that people that nice still existed. They are truly some of the most humble and warm people that I have ever met. I wish nothing but great things for them.
And truly, I wish both of them the best of luck because they have both been a pleasure to work with.

How Can We Make Women Count When the Numbers Don't Add Up?
By investing to make contraception available to every woman who wants it, improving access to safe abortion where it's legal and making sure that medical care is readily available when things go wrong we can make a real difference. It's not rocket science - even for someone still relatively new to the development sector like me.

The young and talented "Indian Idol 6" finalist Devendra Pal Singh, who has begun his career in playback singing with "Loni hassen", says he will never ignore his studies to be on camera.
Post the show, the 17-year-old has been on a roll and is now looking forward to giving his Class 12 exams in March next year.
"For me, everything is the same post 'Indian Idol 6'. But for others, it is different. People recognise me and treat me as a star. I am very thankful to god for being so kind to me," Singh told IANS.
"After spending four months in 'Indian Idol 6', doing some live shows and recording my first movie song, I am going to appear for my Class 12 exams next year. I will keep singing and doing live shows, but will never ignore my studies. And I believe no one should do that," he said.
Singh has been learning classical music for five years now and plays the harmonium. During the show, he especially impressed singing legend Asha Bhosle with his melodious voice.
Singh has recorded his first album "Indian Idol - Fabulous Four" with his co-contestants Amit Kumar, Vipul Mehta and Poorvi Koutish. It was launched last month by Universal Music.
The Ludhiana-based youngster, who does not miss his 'riyaaz' even for a single day, has been travelling across the country for live shows. He also plans to shift base to Mumbai as soon as he is done with his exams.

Dear Readers,
he is amazing singer feel proud of him
you definitely should have won!!
he is an amazing singer and shouldve won.. like that he is so down to earth and humble
Feel very proud of him.. And I personally agree with him.. What studies or education can give u in life is amazing .!!
@ Nitu_TheTwisted: it is obvious that you didn't go to school and believe that this is "bakwaas".
At the age of 17 he feels that education should never be neglected is a big deal because when you're at that age the only thing you want to do is get famous and nothing else. I like his advice to youngsters and hope they follow and learn something from him. If you get fame, money and everything at a young age its good that means you're lucky but there's no guarantee it'll stay with you forever so never neglect education. :)

"I may be asking something that has already been asked a thousand times (if so, i apologize), but is there a particular reason why most, or at least a lot of the NPC starport cities are called Korunaan City?
Imo, it kills the RP. If there's a lack of information about canon city names, i still would prefer having different made up names than just the same name for all of them. I'm only speaking for myself though. "

AVAILBLE NOW: Bedini SG - The Complete Advanced Handbook
|Renewable Energy Discussion on various alternative energy, renewable energy, & free energy technologies. Also any discussion about the environment, global warming, and other related topics are welcome here.

I would not use epoxy. Too thick and not uniform sand dispersion.
Try a slow curing high strength resin like this one.
CR-900 High Strength Casting Resin, 26 fl. oz.
If you could do this under a vacuum, that would be even better.
For a vacuum method, I would do the following. Place the black sand into the form, press it in well. Mix the resin and pour into the mold. Apply the vacuum for 15 minutes then release the vacuum and let set overnight. You would get a very nice form doing this with virtually no bubbles if done with care.
If you are trying to create a vacuum, remember what Tesla showed us how to do: High voltage, high frequency applied to an enclosed container will (I'm pretty sure) cause the gas molecules to bond with the solid molecules, reducing the pressure.
here's an example:
YouTube - Self-pumped vacuum capacitor effect
You could use a microwave to melt the magnetite and then pour it into your mold.
Place a strong magnet on one end to align the fields as you like as it cools.
Dr. John V. Milewski: Growing Gold from Glass in a Microwave - Part 1
YouTube - Dr. John V. Milewski: Growing Gold from Glass in a Microwave - Part 1
And I would just use a simple vacuum pump if you want to create consistent results.
Try This
This method was developed by the late Bill Muller for his motors. Make a frame or mold of the exact size of magnetite core you wish to cast, and line it with a material that will allow you to get the core out after it sets up. Make sure the end plates are made of .125 inch plastic sheet. Mix your magnetite with a slow curing, high temperature resin. Mix as much magnetite into the resin as possible while it is still malleable. Fill the mold and place the end plates on each end, and then place a strong, NEO magnet on EACH SIDE of the mold. The NEO magnets should be at least as large as the magnetite core you are making, and should face each other in the attraction mode, so that all of the particles of magnetite line up, and TOUCH EACH OTHER as the resin sets. This also aligns the magnetic domains in the iron so they are all parallel in the finished core.
Any other method yields very poor results.
When the resin is set (24 hours), the magnetite disc should be able to magnetize up to at least 2500 Gauss and operate with a very narrow hysteresis curve. It will be a complete "non-conductor" so "eddy-currents" will be very low.
Bill Muller used these cores in his motors as a cheap substitute for Metglas Cores. They have many of the same high-speed switching characteristics, but their magnetic permeability is much lower.
That is it. No more questions. Good luck.

Magnetite Recycling
Hi to All Hope Peter can enlighten me on this
Magnetite core from old crt screen .. can it be ground to powder and follow Muller steps to reconstruct ?????
a lot of it is just junk here in China and my muller project hit the dead end for lack of magnetite
Thanks for the support in this thread
What should be used in the mold to act as a releasing agent with the slow cure epoxies? Corn starch, something else?
Thanks for the help!
