Welcome to The Weiner Brigade Inc.
The Weiner Brigade Inc is a small family centered foster rescue for animals with no where else to turn. The homeless, abandoned, abused, neglected, those sometimes on the brink of death, and those who have issues that prevent harmony in the home and relationships due to training or breed issues. For those who come for care, they learn what love, hope and trust. Behaviors such as chasing, digging, hyperness, those needing adjusted social skills are welcome. We usually are full much of the time but try to assist when we are able depending on our adoptions.
Like flowers in a garden they grow, bloom and move on in time to decorate their lives with wonderful new families. A few will make us their home forever due to age or special need. While visiting this site, you will learn a little about The Weiner Brigade inc. , meet many of the animal companions who are homeless that are waiting for a special family or person to share their lives with, who will love them unconditionally as an important and VALUED member of a dedicated family. We are not perfect, nor are those who come to us. But in the end they are happy, beloved and will have a wonderful story filled with a dedicated home. They will find a new beginning and devoted families who will love them as they so deserved. We are their hope, You are their tomorrow and forever......................
Our small rescue is listed with the State of Ohio as a private NOT FOR PROFIT with sanctuary principles where time is never the enemy. At this time we are not tax deductible, soon we hope to be a 501c3 where we will be tax deductible and provide even more for those companions needing our assistance, help even more families needing services such as affordable spay neuters, vaccinations and other programs to help devoted families who need affordable quality care for their companions. Our goal is to help the homeless and to also assist struggling families find a way to continue the relationship with their companion instead of surrendering it to a shelter when times are difficult.
With compassionate intervention, understanding and training in social skills, we hope to have more adoptive matches to aid in re-homing a companion into a loving family who should never have felt the harsh reality of neglect, abuse, starvation, abandonment, to be born unwanted, owner failed or become homeless due to changes in owners lifestyle or living arraignment.
We believe there is a family for each and every one in care. Every moment life's being re-born for precious animals. We desire is that animals who come for care will have their own family, build those wonderful happy relationships as they begin a new journey and receive a real second chance.
Companions in our care receive at least one medical exam if not more, Heart worm tested if 6 months or older and all from 8 weeks old and up are treated monthly with heart worm prevention, spay or neuter, vaccinations, other medical services they need. Advantage Multi, tattooed so in the unlikely event they would become separated from their family, those who find them can assist in helping that beloved companion find their way back home.
We love company and hope that you will visit our site often and pass it on to your friends and family. We encourage adoption of these companions and those in shelters, rescues, and sanctuaries. They all deserve wonderful tomorrows.
As you visit our site, each page will share a little about us, how the dogs and cats are provided for and included in normal family living to help them heal emotional scars of neglect or abuse. These beloved fur babies are in search of their own personal human pet. That's right, we believe fair is fair and every companion needs their own human pet too. :o)
Thank you for considering a animal in need of a dedicated home as your next family member.

Does it take for you to receive an "out of subscription" copy of Celebrations? I ordered a single issue over two weeks ago and have yet to receive it.

Does it take for you to receive an "out of subscription" copy of Celebrations? I ordered a single issue over two weeks ago and have yet to receive it.
This probably isn't going to help much, but I've been waiting since November for my subscription. I've emailed a few times with no response, and even called and talked to Tim. Still nothing. Losing the Disney magic... :no: If you contact the magazine and can get a response, let us know.
The next issue comes out early May! So Queensfairy you may be waiting until then. Just like with a normal magazine subscription it's usually 4-8 weeks to get 1st issue. Fly, I would suggest emailing again!
Have your emailed firstname.lastname@example.com with your concerns? Usually Tim, Lou, or Jessica are really good with responding.
I have had a subscription since last summer and have had no problems! Good luck!!!
First, kind of embarrassing, but I forgot a letter in my user name, so it's corrected now.
Second, I realize I should've answered queensfairy's question-- it should only take a week. It's not like a subscription where you have to wait for the magazine to be published. They're already in print, so all they have to do is put the magazine in an envelope, address it, and mail it. That's what worries me a little. When companies start having problems, these are the exact things you start to see: orders not being sent, messages going unanswered, assurances not being upheld.
Eeyore-- thanks for the input! :D Unfortunately, I've emailed three times already, and called and talked to Tim. Ugh. :no:
Just wanted to let you guys know that back issues do take a couple of weeks to be shipped out. This is because it comes from a different mailing house than our printed issues. As for not answering emails, I will look into that right away as I am the one who answers them. I apologize for the delay and let me know if there is anything else I can do for you! I can also be reached by email at email@example.com

As FlyForaWaltGuy mentioned - I am ordering a single copy of an issue that has already been produced. I am not ordering a new subscription. Therefore, its not like a normal magazine subscription. If someone pays for something - including a $3 shipping charge I think it is insane to ask that consumer to wait 2+months (until May as mentioned in other posts) for them to receive their product. If that is the order in which Celebrations Press handles their magazine - then there needs to be a notation to that on their website so the consumer isn't left wondering when their product will come in or spending times sending several emails trying to get an answer.
Just my opinion.

When we think of honey, we don't think of scaling a cliff with giant bees to get it. These images tell the photographic story, shot by Eric Valli, of the Himalayan Gurung men of Nepal harvesting honey. The images, shot in 1987, are so modern for being an almost 25 year old shoot and while the unbelievable nature of the photos make it hard to believe that they are not staged, they simultaneously have an intimate feeling that is so natural and real. Valli captures the essence of these astounding men on their incredible journey to do something that seems so simple, but is not in the least. [Read more…]
Wall Veneered with 20,000 Wooden Hexagons
This intricate pattern-work on the exterior of this archway for Clerkenwell Design Week is, at first glance, mesmerizing and impressive as a piece of art, but might not initially strike you as groundbreaking. Take a little closer look though, and you will understand the innovation behind the facade. The real beauty of this archway, the ingenious idea of Giles Miller Studio, is that it employs natural light to help make its geometric face come alive. Each of the hexagonal wood "pixels" was laser cut and angled in a such a way that the light reflects off each identical piece differently, resulting in a pattern of seemingly multi-colored pieces.

Instagram Logo Comes to Life
The combination of a polaroid camera and Instagram may be the dream of hipsters everywhere… and with a little luck that dream might become a reality. A marketing and communication studio called ADR Studio has created a concept design of an Instagram camera. They call it the Instagram Socialmatic. The camera would be a 16GB WIFi enabled camera that looks just like the Instagram logo. The concept features a flat 4:3 touch screen, WiFi and bluetooth function for instant sharing to Facebook, Led flash and optical zoom, two camera lenses for regular and filter shots, and even a 4 color printer for the polaroid fans out there. The printed images would include a QR code for connecting to photographer's Instagram profile. The printed images also would have a sticky strip (like a post-it) to enable sticking it up wherever you please. [Read more…]
Simply Illustrated: An Interview with Ty Wilkins
Do you ever wonder what happened to that kid in your kindergarten class who could make the Taj Mahal out of building blocks? These beautifully arranged illustrations are the handy work of that kid all grown up, Ty Wilkins. When you see his work it makes a lot of sense that he was first a designer, and then migrated into the world of illustration. His uncanny ability to create full illustrations with only the most basic shapes is a big indicator… and he made a note to mention that the same process he went through in making logos, he did for his illustrations. Despite the apparent simplicity, he is able retain a high level of sophistication in his work, which is what really is impressive. [Read more…]
Geometric Order Amidst Starling Chaos
A murmuration of starlings may seem random, but one artist has found the geometric order to this phenomenon of nature in her work. About six months ago a video flooded the internet of two women out on a canoe while a murmuration of starlings danced above their heads. After the video went viral, murmurations have been a hot topic online and even in art. Catherine Ulitsky, an artist living in western Massachusetts, captured the unique flock patterns of the starling murmurations on camera and gave order to the seemingly random group by painting connections between the birds. In each photograph, Ulitsky uses vibrant colors and straight lines to create beautiful geometric patterns in one of natures great phenomena. "Carefully observing natural phenomena reminds me constantly of the limitless complexity and wonder of the world we inhabit," said Ulitsky of her work. [Read more…]
See Scotty Draw: Illustrations for the New Century
How can you not stop to admire Scotty's colorful, mid-century inspired illustrations? It is abundantly apparent that after seeing his craftily arranged illustration scenes, he also has a solid understanding of design principles. The illustrations are full of carefully planned negative spaces and shapes which give each a balanced texture. Scotty Reifsnyder has an ever-growing portfolio of work in a style he coined: New Century. His background and schooling, both in design and illustration, has made his art win numerous awards, features, and a long line of clients. I was privileged enough to ask him a few questions about his work and aspirations as an artist. Below is our interview: [Read more…]
Two Brothers, One Piece of Art
The work of two brothers is more than just a piece of art, it is a form of joint communication. James and Tom Gulliver work together to create colorful, explorative art. Tom was born with Down Syndrome and the work he creates with his brother allows him to communicate past his disability and use the art to show his feelings and thoughts. It is neat to see the brothers work together and create such interesting work. Each piece looks like an experiment where all of the parts are shown in an exploded view. They are full of layers, which makes them so intriguing. James makes the main image and Tom creates the outlying drawings. The subject matter seems to focus on people and their individual perceptions of the world around them — it gives the viewer a unique peek into both artist's minds. [Read more…]
Bringing Back the Pennant
Have you ever wondered what happened to those good-old fashioned pennants of our past? I remember my walls as a child being covered by colorful pennants from all my favorite sports teams. The simple felt triangles were motivational and symbols of dedication to your home team. Now, The Peoples Pennant project is reviving those pennants, but instead of championing your favorite sports teams, they celebrate everyday life. The Peoples Pennant team consists of Jessica K. Heltzel, Tim Hoover and Eric R. Mortensen. To add a little bit more detail to the project, I had the opportunity to interview them, which went as follows: [Read more…]
The Sound of Jelly
Have you ever wondered what sound jelly makes? Well, now there is a kit that provides you with all the right materials to discover exactly that. The world needs to give a big thanks to Raphaël Pluvinage and Marianne Cauvard for creating the game, Noisy Jelly. Arguably the most fun combo ever, this musical jelly chemistry lab is something that needs to be experienced first-hand to get the full effect. Even though there are children playing with it in the video, you better believe this is a game for all ages. [Read more…]

My gutter downspouts each go into wider PVC pipes in the ground. I don't see anywhere they let out, though there is a wooded hill behind my house so it isn't completely unreasonable that if they let out there I wouldn't be able to find it. But I'm thinking the PVC just goes down into the ground and that's it? The water just seeps down below the house? Is that a normal way to build a gutter? Anyway, when it rains hard, one of the PVC backs up and the water starts pouring back out over it, as in the image. I'm wondering if I need to unclog something? I almost wonder if all the PVC pipes are networked together underground as the amount of water coming back up seems to be more than the water coming down that one particular piece of downspout. |
Follow-Up Postings:
It's anyone's guess how the PVC was laid. Without digging them up to check the configuration, any guesses are just that....guesses. My guess would be: I suspect that someone just termiated them in the ground, maybe with some stone at the end. I highly doubt that there is much of an underground run of pipe, but you never know. Consistent with that thought...I don't believe that it is something that can be "unclogged". |
Follow the slope of your land, and see if you can find an outlet. I would guess that there is a 4" corragated plastic drain line buried a foot below the ground. If the drain line is clogged, you may be able to flush it out, by snaking a garden hose with the water running. I think you'll need to do a little digging to see what's down there. |
I'd run a snake down the drain to see how far it goes. It just might pop out on the hillside. |
Remove the stones and see where it's heading. I had a client with a similar issue in the rear of their old townhouse in Alexandria, VA. (Olde Town) The ground was flat/level, and the house had no basement. In our case, there also was a rectangular drain grate in the middle of patio. Anyway, after digging up the stones by hand, I found that the patio also drained toward it, but more importantly, that the drainpipe then ran under/through the house foundation toward the front sidewalk (just beneath the walkway). It was supposed (and once did) drain out a hole in the side of the curb into the street, but the city had recently installed new curbs and closed the opening. Once we figured it out, city came and cut the concrete, opened it up again, and all is well. |
We had a similar issue at our house- not knowing we're our and sump pump and downspouts emptied out. We did have an over flow drain but could see that the plastic drain extended beyond that point. Also from the house, the pipes ran under a 3 car wide concrete driveway. The over flow drain was next to the driveway and flooded the drive with every heavy rain. We ended up having to hire a plumbing company to run a camera through the over flow drain to find out where the pipes ended. In our case the, the down spouts and sump pump did join into one pipe that was connected to the city storm sewer and there was a clog where it was connected to the storm sewer. We were lucky they were able to roto-root the clog out or we would have had to dig down several feet to replace that section of pipe. My son's house the same set up as yours and has had overflow like you pictured. His is a fairly short underground run also to a storm sewer but when it backs up it does create quite a waterfall. He has had his roto- rooted also. Do you have storm sewer in your area? The pipe may run to a storm sewer. Whether you do or not though, an underground camera will let you know where the pipes go and where the clog is. While debris from the roof can be causing the blockage, leaves and dirt or small critters could be getting in the open space where the down spout connects to the PVC. Good luck. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Downspout adapter
Obviously, our situations may or may not be like yours. At our house, the downspouts go to buried terra cotta pipe that takes the water out to an opening in the curb, so it drains down the gutter. Well, that's the idea, anyway. But with a house that's about 90 years old, and terra cotta pipe.... guess you can guess where this is going? The terra cotta is almost surely broken, and the way out to the street is blocked. We used a very simple solution--we installed rain barrels. Waited till the end of the season and picked up 8 - $90 barrels for $25 EACH!!! They collect and save the water for us to use when we needed--a great plus. And if we're expecting a lot of rain, we connect a hose, string it out away from the house, and leave the faucet open, so we don't have the water hanging near the foundation. It made a HUGE difference in the amount of water we had to pump, after we did that. We're very pleased that we found a quick, easy, cheap solution that had it's own benefits--saving water we could use later. |

Moto to hold Service Area Open Day
28 April 2008
When it opens for business later this summer, the service area will be the greenest in Britain and visitors to the open day will be able to see an exhibition detailing the technology that will cut power consumption and carbon emissions.
It will also demonstrate the measures Moto has undertaken to protect local wildlife and enhance and preserve ancient woodland, hedgerows and wild flower meadows.
Senior members of Moto staff will be on hand to talk to visitors about the work of Moto In The Community Trust, the company's own charity which is actively forging links with many organizations in Wetherby, and about career prospects with the company.
The service area, at Junction 46 of the A1(M), will create 115 jobs.
Jeff Parfrey, who will be the Area General Manager of Moto Wetherby, said: "This will be the first opportunity we've had to show people at first hand what the service area will be like and what it will offer the community. We're hoping it will generate a lot of interest."
The open day takes place on Wednesday 14 May between 9.00am and 5.00pm but anyone interested in applying for a job can send an e-mail at any time to: firstname.lastname@example.com

Ten spooky stories from Denver's own Croke-Patterson mansion
"Anyone can write a ghost book and make it up, but when you've got something in your neighborhood that has a rich history and you can tie the spirits to who lived in that house, that makes your hair stand up," says Ann Alexander Leggett, who co-authored A Haunted History of Denver's Croke-Patterson Mansion with her daughter, Jordan. The pair researched the famously ghost-ridden mansion's history, and will be signing copies of the book tonight. The $25 tickets (which must be purchased ahead of time online) supports Historic Denver and also grants access to the mansion from 6 to 9 p.m.; closed for years to the public, the house has been undergoing renovations to become a bed and breakfast. Here are the spookiest mansion ghost sightings.
10. The caretaker in the carriage housephoto by Ann Alexander Leggett
Ann Alexander Leggett: The carriage house has a whole different energy than the main house and it's interesting because here's Krista [a psychic] having a conversation with people that I can't hear. There's a spirit in the carriage house of an Irish caretaker, and both the Pattersons and the Crokes were of Irish descent. And she [the ghost] was in the carriage house and she was immediately put off by us being there and just said, "What are you doing here?" and Krista explained that I was writing this book and everything and immediately the woman said "Okay, if she's ever afraid in the main house, just tell her she can come here and she'll be safe" and then the next thing she says when we're getting ready to leave, she says, "Tell her we want her to write the whole story. She has to tell the whole story." That's a little bit of pressure.
9. The ghost of Kate Patterson helping a pregnant woman
AAL: There was a woman who lived there with her family and she was pregnant with triplets at the time.
Jordan Alexander Leggett: They were the last single family to live there in the late 90s, early 2000s.
AAL: In the late stages of her pregnancy, she was obviously pretty uncomfortable. One morning she was just in bed and not feeling well and just couldn't roll over and an apparition appeared to her and offered her hand and actually helped her roll over in bed. The apparition said "My name is Kate." And, of course, Thomas Patterson's wife was named Kate, or Katherine, so that's one of the stories that people don't know so much about.
8. The opening and closing drawers
AAL: The same woman's husband had an office up on the third floor and he had a desk in between these two little closets, and they had a couch on the right-hand side, and he always had his drawers locked. And she said you could sit on the couch and watch the drawers open and close and open and close. And then you'd get up and they're all locked.
7. The attempted exorcism
AAL: When the woman who lived there had the triplets, she had a friend who brought in a priest who was gonna bless the house, kind of exorcise it. So they brought in this priest. He walked in and immediately went in to the front parlor to start his blessing and all of a sudden all the plaster starts to peel off where this fireplace was and this dark vortex of wind comes out of this fireplace. The priest just left.
6. The phantom voices
AAL: The psychics that we brought in and the paranormal groups picked up you can't believe how many voices.
JAL: Mom took a psychic in and this woman just had a tape recorder in her hands and two days ago I finally got the tape and from what I can hear it's some of the craziest stuff ever. Like, Krista will pick something up and say "Oh, I'm getting a woman named Rosemary, Rosemarie, something Marie, Mary? You know, I don't know" and you hear a pause and there's this whisper that's like, "Rose."

Dec 4, 2009 1:28 PM by Dave Hovde
The morning computer models are not only confirming the rain likely for next week but are also more optimistic about significant rain. Monday's rain could be from .25-1.00" with Wed-Friday rainfall not only very likely but also potentially very heavy with 1-4" possible near the coast with west and south facing slopes getting the most. There could be a little break on Thursday afternoon but Friday looks very active. This is a step up in intensity predicted by last night's model which had roughly the same timing but lower rain potential.

Unfortunately and fortunately I think that it is going to make AK much busier. Unfortunately because I like that it is less busy for those of us who love it and have always loved it. Fortunately because it will bring more people into the park and hopefully help people learn to appreciate all it has to offer.

Sterling, whose no nonsense, straight forward, and detailed oriented approach to training propels her students to succeed and take their businesses to the next level within their first two years of operation. One of our graduates, Laurie Harden, completed our 3-Day Short Certification Course in San Francisco in April 2011 and within two months she had seen eight clients. Now that is amazing! She purchased our Sales, Marketing, and Business Brand Identity Launch Kit and used the sales pitches to sell her services to her network of acquaintances – resulting in an instant return on investment.

National Deli Bribes Bloggers With Free Hot Dogs
Categories: Food Charity
Photo by Riki Altman |
We couldn't decide which end to start on |
Did you know National Deli is based in Miami? Neither did we. And we were told South Florida Char-Hut locations will be donating a portion of sales from every National Deli Hot Dog sold during the month of July to the Pap Corps Champions of Cancer Research, another South Florida-based group, so we felt it was worth plugging a hometown product with a purpose.
Perhaps now you understand why we're telling you to consider picking up National Deli hot dogs at Publix, though you may already have another brand as your favorite. And you'll just have to eat your franks plain because, unfortunately, National Mustard Day doesn't occur until August 6 and there's no designated "day" for ketchup or relish. Funky Purple Ketchup Day was celebrated July 30, 2001, but we just don't want to know what that was all about.
Hey, who grabbed our buns?

Flag Day
June 14 is Flag Day in the United States, where we commemorate the adoption of the United States flag, which happened on this day in 1777. Coincidentally, the same resolution of the Second Continental Congress also created the "American Continental Army," so the United States Army also commemorates their "birthday" on this day. Though not officially a federal holiday, Flag Day was established by an act of Congress in 1949. The longest-running Flag Day parade is right here in Washington state, home of GiftTree, where the city of Fairfield has held an annual parade honoring the American flag since 1910.
This year, celebrate Flag Day or your Army service member by sending them the America the Beautiful bouquet, a gorgeous patriotic blend of white lilies and red roses with an American flag accent… what better way to celebrate?

Everytime I use the hedge trimmer, the teeth get a lot of dirt stuck on it. I am using fluid firm spray before cutting, it help quite a bit but still not eliminate the dirt. I still have to scrape the teeth with a screw driver. Any better ways to keep the stuff from sticking onto the blade? |
Follow-Up Postings:
PWD from Kleenflo is the best I have seen.Spray it on before cutting and every two hours during use. Spray again when finished to rinse the dirt and sap off. |
Go to your building supply store and buy a length of downspout, like is used with rain gutters on your house. The length should be the same as the lenghth of your hedge trimmer blades. Then fashion a leakproof cap on one end, and some sort of stand, like a piece of scrap lumber. Then fill the downspout with plain old paint thinner and set your hedge trimmer into it and let it set for a couple of hours. After this you can give it a quick brushing with an old paint brush and then a quick dip back in the thinner to rinse it off. After the paint thinner evaporates, give the blades a spray of the lubrication of your choice. Personally, I use WD40, which many here say is not good because it leaves a waxy film, but I find the waxy film helps keep the goo from the hedges from sticking as bad. |
"but I find the waxy film helps keep the goo from the hedges from sticking as bad" That is why PWD works so well. |
Hi Canguy, Do you know if PWD is available down here in the states? Thanks, |
Try a well equipped OPE dealer. Failing that, an automotive parts jobber, if he stocks the brand, should be able to order it for you. Kleenflo is big in the automotive industry. |

simple, i use mine maybe 2x a year. by the time i am ready to use them again, anything stuck in there has degraded so much it breaks right apart! |

After years of frustration removing 'baked on' sap/resin from hedge trimmer blades, I just tried KRUD KUTTER by Supreme Chemicals of Georgia- www.krudkutter.com. It was unbelievable! Sprayed it on & the hardened sap began to drip off. I used the smaller nylon brush from a set Harbor Freight sells (Item # 93610)to get into the tight spots. Presuming it's water based I carefully rinsed off the blades using a bit of dish soap & the brush, dried them carefully, sprayed them with WD-40.... and crossed my fingers it would displace any leftover moisture as listed on their can. |
For some reason, I never reply to this thread!! I start using Fluid Film. I spray before and after trimming. All the old deposit disappeared and never even have to clean or do anything about it. No scrubbing, scrapping. Just spray and use and the blade looks shinny!!! You can't get better than that!!! |

The world of SEO has rapidly evolved over the past few years. Search engines such as Google are struggling to make sure that they offer the best services to their customers, so that they can find what they are looking for easily and more effectively. This is the reason why Google algorithm updates such as Panda and Penguin were developed. The fact that these updates were very aggressive in getting rid of sites that were considered not useful to users was welcome for many users, but for SEO experts and site owners, it spelled disaster. Within a matter of days, all the work that many SEO experts had done went down the drain, and they had to start working from scratch again.
If you are thinking of doing SEO today, you need to make sure that you protect yourself from any future issues. This means that you need to do your SEO in such a manner that you will not be severely affected by such updates again. Of course, you can never be guaranteed to completely avoid the effects of future updates, but there are ways of minimizing their effects. These include:
Making sure that you design your site for people to benefit from
The key thing you need to remember is that you have to do your SEO with your users in mind, rather than with the search engines. This means that you need to focus on making sure that the people who visit your site will be satisfied with what they find. When you do this, it will automatically follow that the search engine crawlers will increase the page rank of the site. This is because since the Panda and Penguin updates, the new algorithms now use metrics that users would use to determine whether a site is of high quality or not. This means that if a customer visits your site and finds it beneficial, chances are that the crawlers will too.
Clean up your site
If you have been having a site for many years, you may have done all sorts of SEO on it in the past. In some instances, you may have remnants of old-fashioned SEO methods on the site, such that with consequent algorithm updates, such elements may end up making your site lose rank. For instance, if you used to use a link farm in the past, there may still be links that originate from such sources to your site, and this will make your site look to be of low quality to crawlers. This means that when you are embarking on a new method of SEO, you need to go through your site from top to bottom, getting rid of anything that could compromise your rank. These include broken links, content that is of low quality and HTML code that is not properly optimized. If you have a large site this will take some time, but it is often more than worth it in the end.
Be moderate when doing SEO
In addition to the above, it also makes a lot of sense to be rational when executing some decisions. For instance, if you are interested in getting links from your site, you should not overdo it even if you are sure that the links are all legitimate and of high quality. Doing over-optimization is just as bad as doing bad or no optimization at all, so you should strive to avoid it as much as you can.
All in all, you need to remember that if you are involved in SEO, you should anticipate more in the way of algorithm updates from companies such as Google. The only way to avoid having such updates having a drastic effect on your SEO is by making sure that you shift the way you approach the issue of SEO in the first place. If you concentrate on things such as keywords and links, you will definitely be affected by such changes. However, if you concentrate on making sure that your site is useful for many customers, you stand a very good chance of prevailing despite such algorithm changes. Of course, this means that you will need to do more work for the SEO to work, but in the end, it is often more than worth it!

Just thought I'd pass this notice along:
Silver Spring Garden Club Third Annual Club Plant Swap
Plant sorting begins at 7:30 pm with the swap starting at 8:00pm. They ask people to please pot plants up now, as the longer they can get settled in their pots, the better their chance of success and survival. Please label all your swap plants with as much info as you have. (No garden plants to share? you may bring store-bought plants.) The plant swap will be immediately followed by a Home Owner Workshop on Deer by Rob Gibbs, a wildlife ecologist with the M-NCPPC Montgomery County Department of Parks. Post-talk meeting refreshments are provided by Silver Spring Garden
Follow-Up Postings:
Thanks kimka for passing this along. Can you tell me a little more about what goes on at a plant swap as I've never been to one? Thanks. |
- Posted by kimka z7 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Mon, Sep 10, 12 at 8:40
I'm not a member of the Silver Spring Garden Club myself, so if there is a member reading this forum, maybe they can add more information. But it looks like a semiformal swap. People bring plants, which are then sorted into groups like sun perennials, part sun peremnials, part shade, house plants, herbs etc. People get a chance to browse. Then groups of people are called forward to each select one plant, then called forward to select another, then another round until most plants have been taken. Left overs are then free for the taking. This is somewhat more formal than the MAG swap, where people just put plants out beside their car and browsers just pick up what they want (except for the "pre-arranged trades" which are marked for people by name). In the MAG swap, food (read chocolate) substitutes for bringing plants, doesn't appear so for the Silver Spring Garden Club. If you want to attend the Silver Spring Garden Club swap, email me privately at jkkaplan "at" erols.com. I'm planning on bringing a bunch of plants. You are welcome to use some of them as your contribution. |

Syria replaced its defense minister Monday with the army chief of staff.
The shake-up in the government came as the Syrian military unleashed a brutal crackdown on a five-month-old uprising against President Bashar Assad.
At least 42 people were killed over the weekend as Syria's crackdown on anti-government protestors intensifies.
The latest violence happened in the eastern city of Deir el-Zour.
"We heard very loud explosions, and now there's intermittent gunfire," an activist said, speaking on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals. He said people were too terrified to take the wounded to government hospitals, instead treating them at home or in makeshift hospitals.
The Local Coordinating Committees, which help organize the protests and track the uprising, said machine fire and artillery blasts resumed early Monday in Deir el-Zour. Syrian troops also stormed Maaret al-Numan in the northern province of Idlib at dawn, activists said.
"Forces entered the city from its eastern side and they are preventing the residents from entering or leaving the city," the LCC said in a statement.
More than 300 people have been killed in the past week, the bloodiest since the uprising began. The regime's crackdown has left more than 1,700 dead.
The mostly peaceful, unarmed protesters are demanding political reforms and an end to Assad's rule.
The international community has sharply condemned Syria's crackdown -- imposing sanctions and demanding an immediate end to the attacks.
Syria's Arab neighbors have also joined in the chorus of nations criticizing the violence against the protestors.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is OC!
Facts about OC
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Tiger Striped
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
OC's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with cats.
Hi, my name is OC. My friend Jasmine and I thought we had it made. A really nice lady took us home from an animal shelter. Then it happened. The dog came home. Yikes! It was a really big dog! I think it eats cats. Jasmine and I were down to 6 or 7 lives for sure. Now we are safe at Cat Nap Lodge. We like it here, but we can't wait to have a home of our own. We hope to be adopted together. We really bonded over that dog incident.
OC is almost one year old. He is a big boy at 8 pounds. He has had his FVRCP and Rabies vaccinations. He has been tested for Feline Leukemia and has had his flea/worm treatment. OC has also been neutered. If adopted alone, his adoption fee is $100.00. If you adopt OC and Jasmine together their combined adoption fee would only be $150.00. Please call us at 269-567-0328 to make an apointment to visit OC and Jasmine.
Thank you for your interest in one (or two?) of our Cat Nap Lodge cats!
Other Pets at Cat Nap Lodge
Why Adoption is a Great Option
OC, a Richland Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Richland, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Richland.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Richland already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Richland breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Richland paves the way for another one to be saved.

Ways we reduce our environmental footprint:
Our 1,428 solar panels generate up to 252 kW for our Carneros winery .
Watch it now >>
We have partnered with Yemm & Hart, a recycling company that converts cork into self-sustaining products, to create a recycling program that promotes the education and collection of corks.
We use sustainable winegrowing practices in all that we do. These practices enhance the watershed and restore the habitat of our local community.
Our equipment and machinery is designed to be energy efficient with a low environmental impact, and both wineries are certified Napa Green.
We recycle all that we can here at our facilities and encourage others to do the same.
All process water used at our winery is recycled through our wastewater treatment system and re-employed as irrigation water on our Estate vineyard.
We have streamlined our packaging and incorporated the use of eco-friendly Kraft boxes which reduces the use of chemicals and requires less energy during the boxes' production.
When we bought our Brandlin Estate Vineyard, we preserved many acres of beautiful oak trees when planting vines.
Our ride-sharing and bike to work program encourages employees to bike or carpool, saving 17,000 miles on the road last year.

LOVE this shampoo. It is gentle while completely cleansing hair and scalp. I have sensitive skin and this does not irritate my scalp at all. My colorist recommended it and I've been using it for a few months now. I like it so much I purchased the 32 oz container. It smells very nice, gives loads of suds, rinses easily, never irritates and my color has lasted much longer than ever before. The container cap has a double click - if you don't close it (feeling the double click) you'll find some of the shampoo leaks out.

Metals as contaminants in food
Metals such as arsenic, cadmium, lead and mercury are natural occurring chemical compounds. They can be present at various levels in the environment, e.g. soil, water and atmosphere. Metals can also occur as residues in food because of their presence in the environment, as a result of human activities such as farming, industry or car exhausts or from contamination during food processing and storage. People can be exposed to these metals from the environment or by ingesting contaminated food or water. Their accumulation in the body can lead to harmful effects over time.
EFSA's role
EFSA provides scientific support and advice to risk managers based on risk assessments. The European Commission and EU Member States make decisions on regulatory issues including the setting of maximum levels for metals in food – EFSA's scientific advice helps inform such decisions.
Exposure to contaminants whilst not desirable may not be avoidable. Therefore, as part of its risk assessments of contaminants in food, when possible (i.e. when sufficient information is available), EFSA establishes a Tolerable Daily or Weekly Intake (TDI/TWI) for these substances. This is an estimate of the average quantity of a chemical contaminant that can be ingested daily or weekly over a lifetime without posing a significant risk to health. A TDI/TWI is usually expressed on a body weight basis in milligrams per kilogram of body weight per day or week (mg/kg bw/day or wk).
EU framework
The basic principles of EU legislation on contaminants in food are contained in Regulation 315/93/EEC:
- Food containing a contaminant to an amount unacceptable from the public health viewpoint and in particular at a toxicological level, is not to be placed on the market
- Contaminant levels must be kept as low as can reasonably be achieved following recommended good working practices
- Maximum levels must be set for certain contaminants in order to protect public health.
Regulation EC 1881/2006 lays down maximum levels for certain contaminants in foodstuff, including lead, cadmium, mercury and inorganic tin. This Regulation does not cover radioactive substances. Regulation EC 333/2007 covers the methods of sampling and analysis for the official control of the maximum levels of these metals. Surveillance for residues of chemical elements in foods of animal origin is specified in Council Directive 96/23/EC.
- EU legislation on contaminants – European Commission
EFSA's activities
EFSA has received requests from the European Commission or Member States to provide risk assessments on arsenic, cadmium, mercury and uranium in food. This work is carried out by the Panel on Contaminants in the Food Chain (CONTAM Panel).
Latest activities
Mercury in food
In December 2012, EFSA updated its scientific advice on mercury in food. The Authority established Tolerable Weekly Intakes (TWIs) for the main forms of mercury found in food: methylmercury and inorganic mercury. Methylmercury is the predominant form of mercury in fish and other seafood, and is particularly toxic to the developing nervous system including the brain. Inorganic mercury is less toxic and can also be found in fish and other seafood as well as ready-made meals.
The CONTAM Panel considered new scientific information regarding the toxicity of these forms of mercury and established a TWI for inorganic mercury of 4 µg/kg body weight (bw) and a TWI for methylmercury of 1.3 µg/kg bw (lower than JECFA's TWI of 1.6 µg/kg bw). Average exposure to methylmercury in food is unlikely to exceed the TWI, but the likelihood of reaching such a level increases for high and frequent fish consumers. This group may include pregnant women, resulting in exposure of the fetus at a critical period in brain development. Exposure to inorganic mercury through food is unlikely to exceed the TWI for most people, unless combined with other sources of exposure (mainly from fillings used in dental treatment).
Following publication of this opinion, EFSA received a request from the European Commission for a scientific opinion on the risks and benefits of fish/seafood consumption as regards methylmercury. EFSA accepted this mandate. The opinion is scheduled for publication by December 2013.
Previous milestones
Arsenic in food
Arsenic is a widely-occurring contaminant which occurs both naturally and as a result of human activity. Foodstuffs are the main source of exposure for the general population in Europe.
In October 2009, the CONTAM Panel adopted an opinion on arsenic in food. This opinion mainly focuses on inorganic arsenic, which is the more toxic form in which arsenic can appear. The Panel compared amounts of arsenic that people could consume through food and drink to levels which may cause certain health problems. As there was little or no difference between the two, the Panel recommended that exposure to inorganic arsenic should be reduced. However, the Panel also highlighted considerable uncertainties in relation to its risk assessment. It stressed the need for more data on levels of organic and inorganic arsenic in different foodstuffs, as well as on the relationship between arsenic intake levels and possible health effects.
The main sources of inorganic arsenic intake are cereal grains and cereal based products, food for special dietary uses (e.g. algae), bottled water, coffee and beer, rice and rice-based products, fish and vegetables.
Uranium in foodstuffs
Uranium is a naturally occurring radioactive metal, which can be found in varying concentrations in the environment, water and foodstuffs. In March 2009 the CONTAM Panel conducted a risk assessment on dietary exposure to uranium in foodstuffs, in particular mineral water, and advised on the Tolerable Daily Intake (TDI) for uranium. The opinion focused on the chemical toxicity of uranium. The radiological risks related to uranium are outside EFSA's remit. Under the European Atomic Energy Community (EURATOM) Treaty, scientific advice on these aspects is the responsibility of a Group of experts attached to the European Commission's Directorate-General for Energy and Transport.
- EURATOM Group of Experts – European Commission
The Panel did not identify any new data which would have called for a revision of the TDI for uranium of 0.6 µg/kg bw per day established by the World Health Organisation (WHO), and therefore it endorsed this TDI.
The Panel concluded that average dietary exposure to uranium for the general population and high consumers across Europe is currently below the TDI. In specific areas where uranium concentrations in drinking water are high, the exposure estimates are close, but still below the TDI. For infants fed with infant formula made up with water containing uranium, the Panel noted that exposure in relation to body weight may be up to three times higher than for adults, and concluded that such exposure should be avoided.
Cadmium in food
Foodstuffs are the main source of cadmium exposure for the non-smoking general population. In 2009, EFSA's CONTAM Panel carried out a risk assessment on cadmium in food and established a tolerable weekly intake (TWI) of 2.5 micrograms per kilogram of body weight (µg/kg bw). Following an assessment of cadmium by the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA), the CONTAM Panel reassessed the TWI in 2011 and concluded that the TWI of 2.5 µg/kg bw is still appropriate. The current average dietary exposure to cadmium for adults is close to the TWI and the exposure of some subgroups, such as children, vegetarians and people living in highly contaminated areas, could exceed the TWI. The risk of adverse effects for an individual at the current dietary exposure is low because the TWI is not based on actual kidney damage, but on an early indicator of changes in kidney function, suggesting possible kidney damage later in life. In its 2011 reassessment, however, the CONTAM Panel reaffirmed its previous conclusions that adverse effects are unlikely to occur in an individual with current dietary exposure but there is a need to reduce exposure to cadmium at the population level.
Lead in food
Lead is an environmental contaminant which occurs both naturally and through human activities such as mining. In opinion published in April 2010 on possible health risks related to the presence of lead in food, the CONTAM Panel considered cereals, vegetables and tap water to contribute most to dietary exposure to lead for most Europeans. The Panel concluded that current levels of exposure to lead pose a low to negligible health risk for most adults but there is potential concern over possible neurodevelopmental effects in foetuses, infants and children.

It's my first time to plant anything.
http://www.veggieharvest.com/vegetable-planning/zone-8.html Can you tell me what seeds I can plant now? Is there a website where there is more comprehensive lists of veggies with schedules? I'm going to plant some in a rasied bed, and some in the ground.
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by marlingardener 8b Texas (My Page) on Mon, May 18, 09 at 15:53
Metta, We're in zone 8, too, but a LOT different than your climate (want to send us a little of your rain and cooler temperatures?). I would think that you could put out tomato, eggplant, and pepper transplants (not seeds) now and have them produce. We just planted cantaloupe and honeydew melon seeds, which can stand the warmer temps as long as they have moisture. You might also be able to put out cucumbers, but I'm not sure. However, never planted, never harvested! Do you have a local nursery that supplies vegetable transplants? If so, they are not only a source of plants, but of information. Good luck with your first garden, and remember, we all make mistakes and it is very important to keep trying. We learn from mistakes and eat our successes! |
- Posted by skagit_goat_man_ WA (My Page) on Mon, May 18, 09 at 18:15
Metta, we're on Whidbey Island just south of you. Right now you can plant peas, carrots, beets, scallions, and in a couple of weeks beans. Broccoli, cabbage and other brassicas can go in(can go out in March most years) but for your first year I'd suggest buying plants at a garden center. If you are growing outside I'd skip the eggplant. They just aren't a very successful plant up here. Cukes I'd plant out in mid-June. But every nook and crannie has it's own weather and you'll just have to have fun trying different plants at different times over the years. A good book to read this winter would be Steve Solomon's Growing Vegetables West of the Cascades. The zone system, you and I are in 8, is pretty useless in my opinion. It classifies areas by winter low temps. As the poster above said a Texas zone 8 is a different animal than a BC zone 8. It's all a learning experience and most of it is fun. Tom |
Yeah, climate zones are only useful for discussions of winter low temperatures. The southern coast of Iceland, Tucscon, AZ, and Baton Rouge, LA are all zone 8, but good luck trying to grow the same stuff in all three ;) |
- Posted by cyrus_gardner 8 ga (My Page) on Mon, May 18, 09 at 19:43
Karenrei is right. Zoning is crude and based on winter lows aand the late expected frost date. So , not all zone 8s or 7s etc are created the same. I have been to Seattle, the summers up there are much cooler than where I am in Ga but both are zoned as 8. |
- Posted by dutchess_9 8b (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Mon, May 18, 09 at 21:25
Interesting discussion about zones...I didn't know it was based on winter lows/frost dates. I always wondered how places in Canada could be an 8 and I live in Florida and I'm an 8. Is you zone near the coast? I wondering if the warm ocean in the winter allows you to have warmer winters??? |
Here is a link that might be useful: How my garden grows!
Metta Check out www.fullcircleseeds.com They are a Nursery losated in Sooke,BC. They have a nice website with a good variety of Vegetables and Tomatoes that grow in your area. Jim |
But every nook and crannie has it's own weather no truer words spoken! Still, it can be fun to see what zone you are on the AHS heat map-i'll link to it below. Combining the two zone ratings provides a much more accurate picture of the growing conditions. So marlingardener is probably somewhere around an 8/8 and metta might be more like an 8/3 or even 8/2? (Just guessing, hope my bad geography isn't showing). Explains why eggplant might be a little more difficult for metta to grow. So far i haven't seen the heat zones being used much, too bad. You can read more about the map was created and what it means here: http://www.ahs.org/publications/heat_zone_map.htm |
Here is a link that might be useful: AHS heat map

Seeing that on the heat zone map I'm in zone 2 probably has something to do with my problems growing eggplant. Tom |

Are you planning on getting the Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE or the 4G version of the iPhone 5, but find EE's deals too expensive or offer too little data? If this is the case, we have good news for you. EE will be offering cheaper tariffs and more data.
On the 31st of January, EE will be offering a twenty-four-month deal at £31 per month. This has unlimited UK calls, unlimited SMS, and 500 MB of data. The only catch is, you'll have to pay extra for your chosen phone. Currently, this is the cheapest deal EE will be offering.
If two year is too much for you, EE is offering a twelve-month deal at £41 per month. This is £10 extra compared to the twenty-four-month deal, but allows you to switch deals, phones, or even networks once the contract is up. Although more expensive, it does offer you more freedom.
For those of you who would like to get more data allowance, EE is offering their 'super-user' deal. The SIM-only deal will set you back £46 per month and will require you to stay on the deal for twelve months the deal gets you 20GB of data. With a phone, it will cost you £61 per month for twenty-four months. Sadly, this deal will only be valid until February. If you sign up in March, the twelve-month SIM-only deal will cost you £61 per month, while the twenty-four-month deal with a phone will set you back £76 per month.
These deals are definitely better or cheaper compared to the deals EE started with, offering more value for your money. However, other network operators are expected to dish out 4G data in May. Once other networks offer 4G, we're expecting the prices to be more competitive.
Signing up with EE, or are you waiting for a better deal from other networks? Let us know through a comment below.

A guy took a leashed tiger into a busy bar on a Sunday evening and ordered a beer. When the bartender asked what the tiger would be drinking, the man replied, Anything he wants. At least that's how the old joke goes. Police aren't laughing either.
It seems that it's getting hard enough to find tigers in the wild, that poachers these days are targeting those in captivity.
On Friday, David Villalobos, 25, leapt from an elevated train and into a tiger habitat at the Bronx zoo, where he was promptly mauled by a 400 pound male Siberian tiger named Bachuta. When asked why he committed this dangerous and seemingly senseless act, Villalobos, who's since been charged with trespassing, said he "wanted to be one with the tiger."

Scott Bain's portrayal of humans using insects to our own whim and will is quite interesting. Using real taxidermy beetles, his Micromachina exhibit is meant to illustrate how humans are the Earth's biggest pest. Bain's dioramas explore the ways in which we try to manipulate Mother Nature and everything she creates for our own greedy need for personal gain.
Scott Bain's taxidermy beetles turn the dead insects into mechanized shells, likening them to the way humans mistreat our fellow Earth inhabitants. Military-controlled insects would be a conspiracy lover's dream.
