April is National Pet First Aid Awareness Month. As a pet owner we should be prepared for emergencies. There are ways that you can be prepared.
The American Red Cross offers classes in pet first aid in many cities. The course teaches basic pet owner responsibilities, how to administer medicines, how to manage breathing and cardiac problems, and how to treat wounds. The American Red Cross also has books available on pet first aid for both dogs and cats. There's even an app available for phones. I have taken the American Red Cross pet first aid class and it was very interesting and informative. But am I really prepared? I decided to do a little research and check.
I found out that I'm not as prepared as I thought. I needed to resupply my first aid provisions. Here is a list of things that pet owners should have on hand in case of an emergency.

We believe just like a foreign language, humans can learn to speak dog. Support Canine Connexion, an organization whose mission is to educate canine professionals, volunteers and families in canine communication in order to promote benevolent leadership through safe, effective, positive motivational training and responsible rescue and rehoming.
Each year, approximately 8 million stray and unwanted animals are taken in by shelters across the country. Tragically, about 3.7 million -- nearly half -- of these animals must be euthanized because good homes cannot be found for them most commonly because of behavioral issues. For dogs, these challenges can be overcome with proper training and guidance to shelter handlers and future owners. They have the ability to become wonderful companions when placed in the care of a benevolent leader.
We have two specific programs targeted to assist the shelter population as well as the community. First is our Lead Me Home Shelter & Rescue Initiative. With the assistance of professional trainers from Lead the Way, we educate rescue, shelter and other nonprofit organizations' volunteers with our leadership style, including guidance in canine communication, safety and positive reinforcement, giving them the tools to train a dog once thought of as a hopeless case, a chance to find a loving home.
The second program is in support of Train a Dog Save a Warrior. We provide training of a Medical Alert Service dog, as designated by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) guidelines, for any wounded warrior, active duty or veteran, surviving with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Military Sexual Trauma, (MST), and/or Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), in order to restore and improve the warrior's quality of life with a canine 'Battle Buddy', at no charge to the warrior. Often the best emotional support for our warriors surviving with PTSD / TBI can come in the form of a dog that will help them return to a life they thought they would never have again. Because the soldiers are being paired with shelter and rescue dogs, together they bond over the new experience.

The last few days have started to feel like spring. We have had a few warm days and today we even have April showers.
I like the spring time. I like to get outside with my dogs. I like to see the plants spouting through the ground, and the spring flowers such as crocuses and snowdrops.
With spring comes spring cleanup. I rake the yard so the grass will grow better and pick up any dead leaves left from the fall. I start to clean out closets and reorganize stuff. It is also a good time to think about giving our pets' areas an extra good cleaning.
I clean my dogs' entire bedding and crates on a weekly basis, but in the spring it is a good idea to take items outside and give them an extra good cleaning. I usually take the crates out to the driveway and hose them down with bleach. I make sure the floor and baseboards are wiped down good where their crates are usually placed.

This week there are two days set aside to celebrate animals. Sunday was National Puppy Day and Friday is Respect Your Cat Day.
Some people are naturally drawn to dogs, while other people prefer cats. My daughter loves cats, but I really prefer dogs even though I do have a cat as a pet.
I love the smell of a cute little puppy. They have their own little smell, which I refer to as "puppy breath". But having a puppy is a big responsibility. The average life span of a dog is 11 years, with large dogs usually living fewer years and small breeds living longer. Having a dog means daily care of feeding, grooming and exercising.
Also, the yearly expense can be quite high depending on the size of the dog. The first year is usually the most costly because of supplies that may be need to be purchased - like crates and feeding bowls - and also because veterinarian bills are usually higher due to neutering or spaying. A website - http://www.bankrate.com - estimates that the average yearly expense for owning a dog ranges from $580 and $975, so getting a puppy for a pet requires some real commitment and research before taking that big step.

First, let me introduce you to my pack. We have Roscoe, the 8 ½ year old Border Collie mix with tons of energy; Chloe, the 13 year old, diabetic, mostly blind and partially deaf adorable love muffin and couch potato; Blue, a long coated Chihuahua, puppy mill product, with one eye and alopecia, high anxiety and resource guarding challenges; Charlie and Lucy, Yorkie mix brother and sister, similar in personality, in my opinion, to the actual cartoon characters; and Webster, a Durham, NC special, as I call him with a Lab and who cares what else since he is just a loving Velcro dog, as long as you don't wear camo or baseball caps…and sometime orange traffic cones. A nice little cluster of personalities, all with their own challenges.
When I was looking for a dog trainer, it was because I had to introduce Webster into my pack. My concern was less with the smaller dogs, and more with Roscoe, who in the past couple years showed increasing aggressiveness towards other dogs and already had a couple scuffles. Before it escalated further, and knowing soon I would be adding my mother's dog Webster to my pack, I knew I had to be proactive in finding the right trainer to work with Roscoe. I did a lot of research online, made several calls, and I kept coming back to Lead the Way. I think what drew me most was the positive feedback I received before I even set up and appointment. "Yes, we can work with you." "Yes, we can help you." Other trainers spent much time on the phone either telling me how unlikely he could be "fixed" because of his age or wanted to charge me just to meet the dog. I had one suggest more than once in a conversation to bring him to her facility for group classes, without even meeting him or knowing his behavioral challenges first hand. In my head red lights were flashing "DANGER". My gut feeling was back to Lead the Way, and I am beyond happy I made the choice.
Now that LTW has been coaching my pack, husband and myself for just over 6 months, I want to list what I have learned that has improved my life and the life of my family.
1. Dogs talk to us every day. You just have to learn their body signals.

It's National Animal Poison Prevention Week.
In 1961, Congress first designated the third week in March as National Poison Prevention Week. Now it is also includes out pets. Our pets are very precious to us. We need to make sure we put things that are harmful to them out of reach.
If your pet ingests something that is harmful, it not only could mean an expensive veterinarian bill, but it may mean the death of your pet. The AKC Pet Healthcare Plan states that the average vet bill for toxin ingestion costs about $533.00, with some bills go as high as $2500.00. No one wants to lose their precious companion.
This is a good time to make sure you are aware of some of the most hazardous things that pet can get into.

March is National Women's History Month. This year the theme is celebrating Women of Character, Courage and Commitment. One such woman was Caroline Earle White.
Caroline Earle White was an American philanthropist and anti-vivisection activist.
She co-founded the Pennsylvania Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (PSPCA) in 1867, founded its women's branch the WPSPCA in 1869, and founded the American Anti-Vivisection Society (AAVS) in 1883.
Mrs. White is a woman from our area. She was born in Philadelphia on Sept. 28, 1833 to a prominent family. Her father was a lawyer, who was devoted to the abolitionist cause and represented both free and fugitive African Americans. Because her family was wealthy she was given many opportunities not available to most women of the same time. She was well educated, traveled the world and pursued many humanitarian concerns.

This week - March 2-8 - has been named Professional Pet Sitters Week. Would hiring a pet sitter be a good idea when you take a vacation? Why should you use a pet sitter instead of a boarding kennel? How do you go about hiring a pet sitter? What should you look for?
For some people it is the prefect plan. A pet sitter can take care of not just your 4-legged pets, but also reptiles, fish, and birds. They also can bring in the mail and newspaper, water the plants and turn lights on and off making your home look like you are not away. Hiring a pet sitter means you can leave your pet in the environment it knows best - its home. This can be easier for older pets. Some pet sitters will gladly drop your pet off at doggie day care, keeping them on the same routine as when you are home.
How do you find a pet sitter?
I would first begin by asking friends that have pets. Personal recommendations from someone you trust are always good. Your veterinarian may be able to give you the name of a pet sitter that they know.

This past weekend, the Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia came to an end. I had really enjoyed watching the Olympic Games during the past two weeks. The United States athletes brought home many medals for our country. But some of the athletes brought home more.
While the athletes were busy capturing medals, the dogs of Sochi were busy capturing the hearts of the athletes. It seems that Sochi, Russia has a large population of street dogs. These dogs posed a problem for the Olympic Games.
Many athletes became aware of the problem and felt compelled to help. As the games began, C. Thomas McMillen, a former Olympic basketball medalist and board member for the Humane Society of the United States, wrote a letter to the International Olympic Committee asking them to stop collecting the street dogs of Sochi. Before the Olympics started there were mass dog exterminations as part of the preparations for the games.
Once the games began, this problem was picked up by the media when Gus Kenworthy a USA slope-style skiing athlete wanted to bring home more than his silver medal. Kenworthy had found a mother dog and her four pups. He visited the pups every day while in Sochi, feeding and taking care of them. He even tried to take them back to the Athletes Village. Kenworthy posted photos of the dogs on Twitter and that got the attention of other athletes and the world. He extended his stay in Russia to make arrangements so that he was able to bring the dogs home with him.

When I think of February, I usually first think of Valentine's Day. At the end of February, I usually start thinking of spring, because the first flowers in my garden began to bloom.
But as a pet owner, February is Responsible Pet Owners Month, but as I did a little more research, I learned there are actually a few different pet holidays in February.
So while we always remember our human loved ones on Feb. 14, here are a few days we can show our appreciation to our furry, feathered, and scaled loved ones.
Feb. 14 is not only Valentine's Day; it is National Pet Theft Awareness Day. One way to celebrate it is to make sure your dog has a license, is wearing a collar with a tag bearing your name, address, and phone number, and is micro-chipped.

Today most of us woke up early so we could dig our way out. Yesterday's storm left about 10 inches on most of the Bucks County area.
Today is a very cold day and the winds are making drifts that are much higher than the 10 inches of snow that fell. My little dogs have hardly ventured off the deck in the last 24 hours.
I'm a lucky person, because I work in a business that does not have to open when the weather is bad. Of course our clients - dogs - can stay home where it is warm.
Most of our doggie friends come to our doggie day care to burn off energy, so they are more content at home.

Chesterfield County Public Schools celebrated business and community partners during a breakfast on March 15 at the Holiday Inn Koger Conference Center. More than 200 organizations were recognized for their support of public education.
Noting the importance of partners, Chesterfield County School Board members wrote, "Your commitment to our schools helps each child in Chesterfield grow intellectually, achieve at the highest level and prepare for a modern world that demands lifelong learning. We applaud your investment in Chesterfield County Public Schools and thank you for the difference you make in the lives of students and their families."
The keynote speaker was the Rev. Brenda Girton-Mitchell, director of the Center for Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships for the U.S. Department of Education. The Virginia Credit Union sponsored the breakfast. These three partners received special recognition during the event:
- Roger L. Givens III and WATCH D.O.G.S. — Roger L. Givens III discovered WATCH D.O.G.S. when he was looking for a way to keep coaches, players and parents connected with each other and the community after football season. WATCH D.O.G.S. (Dads of Great Students) invites fathers and other father figures to volunteer at their child's school. Givens brought WATCH D.O.G.S. to Curtis Elementary in 2011 and helped it spread to a total of 13 schools so far.
- HCA Virginia Workplace Wellness — HCA Virginia has a long-standing history with Chesterfield County, dating back at least 40 years. From the C-Fit program to Workplace Wellness initiatives, HCA constantly strives to improve the health and well-being of the community. A few of the ways that HCA Virginia Workplace Wellness supports Chesterfield County are on-site biometric screenings and health risk assessments, retiree programming and nutritional programming.
- Tara Nelson and Omega Learning Center — Omega Learning Center owner Tara Nelson serves as the chair of CHAMPS, the education committee of the Chesterfield Chamber of Commerce. CHAMPS, which stands for Chamber Helping to Achieve Meaningful Partnership in Schools, seeks active engagement from chamber businesses to foster a strong, supportive relationship between businesses and Chesterfield County Public Schools.

WOW, she looks so freaky that it looks almost photo-shopped… disturbing. She looks like a bowling ball on top of a hockey stick!
Oh, that's just scary. Really, Nicole, there's nothing wrong with being a size 4, please eat a burger!
Maybe that's why her engagement fell through…….Nicole turned sideways and her fiance lost her!
her glasses are bigger than she is.
That's quite possible Lynette. (Reminds me of Chris' engagement to Kate Moss in Family Guy.) I can not believe how skinny she is.. there's thin beauty and then there's Skeletor.
Poor thing…she needs serious help
Gross!!! Someone..anyone…..get this girl to a buffet and chain her to it!
Concentration camp survivor is the new skinny.
i think she's skinnier than how mary kate was… and mary kate didn't even put much weight back on…. the only person who really has is lindsay..
omg those size 0 shorts look big on her..doesnt she have friends to tell her that she needs to eat a sandwich
Hmmm… that's nasty. She looks like an after school special…
I understand stress and breaking off an engagement… but most people lean towards comfort food… looks like Nicole leaned a little to hard towards the candy, the Brazillian Disco Nose Candy, that is.
Jewbacca you're hilarious!!!!! LMAO.
Yes Nicole, you fat cow. Keep losing da weight. Clearly Mom and Dad don't see the need to hospitalize you yet. Keep going til they get the message. 15 more pounds is just about right.
We can do with out the so called clever bits that are posted. They are not really clever just jealous people jumping on the negitive badwagon. Sure this poor little rich girl has problems , but don't we all. I hope she does not have cancer and that one of her " so called friends" can help her to live a better healthier life. of course friends are a rare comidity. I mean real friends that care. Not for thier personal gain but actually give love and help
I watched a dear fried go from a too tubby stature to a nice bod to the dreaded chemo bod and then ultimately death. I watched my friend fade away over a period of months. the good thing was his memorial. He would have loved it. We got together and told great and funny stories of the good times we spent with our friend. We laffed and cryed it was a special day.
Leyland Austrian
It's the glasses. Yes, she is dreadfully skinny, but I predict that if she were in a normal sized pair of sunglasses she wouldn't look like Skeleton Jack. It's all in relation to your surroundings, ie, if you stand next to someone fat, you look thinner. But with those glasses she seriously looks like a bobble-head
Lol, i love the google ads that appear alongside this article:
"Alternative Anorexia
Difficult cases only please, and your daughter also.
get skinny
Dieting, weight control programs Select from different approaches.
She looks like a praying mantis…
Even more frightening, the camera adds weight! I saw her at La Conversation about a month ago and was taken aback at how sadly skinny she really is. It's beyond making fun of her, she seriously needs help. It makes me wonder if we'd be harping on Karen Carpenter had there been a Superficial.com back then
That's got to be photo-shopped.
Leyland Austrian GO TO OPRAH!!!!!
Leyland, take your whiny ass to your HS counselor and keep the Lifetime stories off such a fine site.
Nicole Richie is pointless and ugly.
Um… Just above you referred to Angelina Jolie as 'fat'. Fat? In whose universe. Perhaps it is attitudes like that which lead women to starve themselves.
It's like the Who magazine articles that sandwich the disgust at women like Kirstie Alley and the horror at women like Lara Flynn Boyle in between cosmetic surgery articles. Perhaps if people like you spent less time picking over women's bodies and how they do or don't measure up, there wouldn't be so many grappling with eating disorders.
Ur a dickhead Janiebabes, they referred to Angelina Jolie as fat because shes pregnant u tool! We make comments about Kirstie Alley, Lara Flynn Boyle and Nicole Richie because theyre weight is a danger to theyre health and unnatural. I have never seen anyone make comments on a celebrities weight at a normal healthy size. I can only imagine this attitude of yours has come from the fact ur obviously a fat bitch and always have been. U better run, I think I smell hotdogs…
Every other girl in Vogue looks like her, she should just take up modeling. Except she's really ugly too so maybe not.
Hey, in Somalia they'd be calling her lard-ass or tubby or something like that. It's all relative.
She looks like an Ethiopian child in a drought year.
'I can only imagine this attitude of yours has come from the fact ur obviously a fat bitch and always have been.'
Wow, sarakai, that comment sure proves you have a healthy attitude to weight.
I actually think nicole is pretty, but shit her weight now is terrifying…none of you people's jokes are even funny because she seriously needs some help soon or she will die of starvation…it's fun making fun at fat or really skinny celebrities, but not when they literally look like they are on the brink of death.
Solaera: She actually really does look like a preying mantis what with the big glasses and all. Good call!
Wow. Her head is humongous. Someone get that girl a sandwich. Her legs turned lumpy and her rib cage is looking a little Sub-saharan-famine-ish.
For the disgruntled, the last time i checked this wasn't a community service site. It's probably hard to convince her to gain weight when her designer gowns fit so much more easily now. So sorry — it may be tragic, but it is also gross. And So hard to feel quite sorry for her when she doesn't seem to put too much of her fortune towards the kids she's starting to look so much like instead of running around with ex-model heiresses milking cows.
Dear God! She looks like she's going to fall apart any moment! There are girls born skinny, but nobody looks THIS skinny by nature. What is she doing to herself?
I don't know what's more scary… The fact that the camera actually adds ten pounds or the fact that young, impressionable girls probably look up to Nicole and want to be just like her. It's sick.
she needs to take some og Kiki Dunst's pre-natal pills…her hair looks awful.
According to Sally Strothers, for only $12 a month, we can rid the world of hunger and save people like this. She should call Brittany and ask her how she beat anorexia. Because she did. Like a motherfucker she beat it.
Okay…to all the people suddenly growing a concious…SHUT THE HELL UP!!! Check your web browser…it doesn't say http://www.PeopleWhoCare.com. It says http://www.THE SUPERFICIAL.com!!!! So what if what people are writing is disturbing and mean…go donate to some anorexia fund and stop bugging us people who just want to vent about poor retarded celebs!!!!!!!
Shes so small and thin Star Jones could use her as a sex toy. Or an apetizer
lol #16
no she needs to lsoe more weight shes still fatter than a skeleton, she need to keep going, come on nicole you'll get there just try harder. Obviously no1's gunan send you to rehab so just get worse then they'll freak and kick emselves'
i think nichole needs to read this page…
seriously, you could be hot. Guys like boobs. maybe gain some to get them back… just dont lose any more.
omg…you guys need to GROW UP and stop critisizing her!! shes a living breathing person…..is that your body? no…becuase it's HERS!! stop saying those things!! if she thinks its best for her then LAY OFF!!! I have a friend like that….with that kind of body…and its not because somethings wrong with her….it's because she loves to EXCERSIZE…and she eats HEALTHY!! maybe you guys honestly don't know what healthy is….you guys are being jerks
Kelsy- that is so not true……maybe with yur friend, but not withe Nicole……she is a skinny ugly bitch!!!!NO boy would want to go out with her, thats why her finace left her!!!! DUH………..Stupid
if you have ever seen anyone with cancer or watched someone die of cancer..in any form, you will realise how "so not funny" it is to compare whatever is wrong with nicole richie to cancer.
there is a thin line between trying to be funny and being downright mean.that caption crossed the line.
Jesus, what's with these young, female celebrities and wearing sunglasses that are 10 sizes too big for their faces? First the Olsen twins, Mischa Barton and now Nicole Richie. Oh wait, did I say the sunglasses are too big? What I really meant was that their faces are collapsing upon themselves under the glasses.
Milo, you comment kind of offended me, cause if what is wrong with Nicole is an eating disorder, it is just as much a deadly DISEASE as cancer.
What is so crazy to me is why to my knowledge at least there has been no intervention. And then a public confession is expected prompted from someone like Katie Couric (????!!!!!!!!) during a book tour? It look Lindsey a few pounds, a trainer, a good year or so and an article in Vanity Fair to reveal her ordeal. She was always a bit more on the edge though too. Nicole I probably in a hell of a lot of pain. But she thrives in the celebrity live so in the end she'll either smarten up or live thin and ….oh and side note. I've been in the beauty and fashion industry for several years. I will say I really don't think she looks that bad. Sorry, but have you seen the girls in the anorexia hospitals at 50 pounds? This is slightly different you realize.
Looks like Paris stole her food while filming The Simple Life. Maybe that's why they had a big fight & starting hating each other.
#47 – Eating disorders may be considered diseases, b ut its hard to feel too sorry for people who make themselves sick. People who suffer from cancer don't .

Last fall, Trustees John Ellison and J.J. Raynor launched a campus-wide conversation about how to make "Carolina: The Best Place to Teach, Learn and Discover" at the request of Board of Trustees Chair Roger Perry and Chancellor Holden Thorp.
Suggestions and ideas gleaned from campus forums, group meetings and individual conversations with students, faculty, staff, administrators and alumni are reflected in the final report, presented to the University's Board of Trustees on March 26, 2009. The trustees responded enthusiastically. Members of the Carolina community are invited to read the report and share any additional thoughts via .
The report's findings focus on how to improve upon the quality of education at Carolina. The campus community has helped Trustees Ellison and Raynor consider critical questions about how to recruit the best undergraduate and graduate students, attract and retain faculty, and improve the overall educational experience at Carolina. The report will help inform future deliberations about the University's Academic Plan and fundraising priorities.

On February 13th, the Ottawa Senators tweeted out the official news in the wake of the Matt Cooke/Erik Karlsson achilles-cutting incident:
Update on Karlsson: Erik suffered a laceration to his left achilles, which will require surgery to repair. He will be out indefinitely.
— Ottawa Senators (@NHL_Sens) February 14, 2013
Game over. The Sens were going to have to make it the rest of the way without their Norris Trophy-winning defenseman. It was over.
But lo! The unthinkable news broke earlier today:
Erik Karlsson is taking a defensive shift with Marc Methot to start practice — a sign that he's closer to a return this week.
— Ian Mendes (@ian_mendes) April 24, 2013
Karlsson takaing a regular shift with Methot. Would appear he makes his return tomorrow. #sens
— Bruce Garrioch (@SunGarrioch) April 24, 2013
I don't believe there's been any decision made just yet but I wouldn't be surprised if Erik Karlsson returns to OTT lineup tomorrow night.

I wish they had more breakfast choices. My daughter and her family were also booked at this hotel. I wish we could have had rooms near each other, at least on the sam floor. Jelly was expired and hard.
Great Room

Hey, everybody! I've been going gung ho with your suggestions and therefore find myself with a bunch of cuttings from the Heritage Rose Group's El Cerrito show which have struck...but now I don't know what to do with them! Some are in coir, some in a perlite/soil mix. I am mostly worried about those in the coir, nutrient wise...I've set up a dedicated nursery for them...beds, pot ghetto...but I am not sure. Repot them in ptting soil? Stitch them in the ground? Hold off 'til fall...I just don't know! I've got several Nuits de Young, a Favorite de Sultaine, Hansa, Rose de Recht, pilzaritos, Cumberland Blue, Homestead...and a few which are still touch and go...like a Blanche Mousseau, a possible Alba. Anyway, I am in Berkeley, Ca...and very anxious that my new babies thrive! I realize this has more than likely been posted, and probably somewhere obvious, but it escapes me! Have a bunch more that have struck from later efforts, too...so I am a but like a parent coming home with new born multiples...uh!!!??? Any answers or directions as to where to find them would be most appreciated! -totally obcessed newbie zealot |
Follow-Up Postings:
If they have a good root ball and are putting out new growth you can pot them up to a bigger pot, like a one gallon size, in good potting soil. I'm not in your zone but I wouldn't put them right into the ground just yet. In pots you can move them about if it gets super hot or some other aberrant weather comes up. |

Thanks, Siel. I took your advice and left them potted and got them in my regular planting mixture, in larger pots. I am curious, though-do you have any idea how long a rose cutting can be sustained, nutrient wise, in the rooting mixture, particularly coir or sand? Just scientifically curious! Again, I appreciate your advice! |
Congratulations, Jinny! If you've potted them into real soil, don't worry about it. Just keep them watered properly. If they're still in a rooting medium, you might consider giving them very weak solutions of your favorite liquid or water soluble fertilizer. If it says to mix one tablespoon per gallon, try a quarter tablespoon per gallon. Water them well the morning you wish to fertilize, then give them a small dose of the very dilute mixture that afternoon. You can always add more or feed again in a short time. As long as they are sufficiently hydrated, a very weak solution of "salty" (fertilizer) water shouldn't hurt them. Can those still in rooting medium (and which have roots) be transplanted into regular potting soil yet? Those which aren't rooted yet don't need any fertilizer. They really don't have roots to make use of it yet, but you CAN mix up some weak water soluble or liquid fertilizer and experiment with foliar feeding them. Use a regular spray bottle with the spray set as fine as possible and after watering them well, gently mist the fertilizer solution over the foliage and canes. I wouldn't think you would want to do it frequently, but just that little bit of extra nutrients absorbed through the top parts could give them the kick-start they need. It would actually make a very interesting experiment if you have enough of any of them to try it. Set up one batch to leave alone and continue treating as you have. The second bunch can be lightly foliar fed, then you can report back so we can all learn from your experiment. Whichever route you choose, good luck! We're waiting for your next report! Thanks. Kim |
Cool idea, Kim! I might try that myself next time I do cuttings! |
You're welcome, Seil! Can't wait to hear what your results are. Kim |
- Posted by jinnypearce none (My Page) on Thu, Sep 1, 11 at 1:56
Kim, thank you for the detailed instructions. I have roses going in every stage, so there is plenty to experiment with. Even have some wrapped up burrito style...others rooting, still in rooting medium, others potted, so I'll try your suggestions and see what happens! Thanks! |
Neat Jinny! You're welcome! I'm excited to hear what worked well for you. Much of this is still uncharted territory. My conditions are probably quite different from yours, so my results will also vary quite a bit. It's fascinating following everyone's exploration and successes. Thank you! Kim |

More than the job, it's hard to explain what I do
What part of 'editor' is not comprehensible?
The only bad-side about Eid is that I get dragged on to meet relatives I have absolutely no idea who they are. I shake their hands, exchange fake pleasantries and then quietly sit in a corner, hoping no would bother me while I try completing a level on Spy Mouse on my iPhone 4.
I am not socially fantastic, I admit, but it is not the reason why I hope I don't be bothered. The thing with these unknown relatives is that dreaded question they ask, always, without fail, for which I never can quite give a clear answer for, always, without fail.
This is an actual conversation I had just the other day.
"Mufaddal, what do you do, son?" asked a weighty relative of mine, filling the gapping silence after her and my parents ran out of topics to chatter about.
"I am an editor for an online website", I said.
"Oh, you mean an IT administrator?"
Wait, what?
"Erm, no, like..I am an editor, you know? I write news, and…features", I blabbered, immediately starting to lose confidence in what I did.
"Yeah….?" I wanted to leave. She didn't know what 'news' was, for Rapture's sake.
"News about what?"
"Well, about gaming" I said. Then seeing confusion overlapping her features, I simplified, "About video games, I mean. Also about technology."
"Oh, like where to find games and where to download them from?"
No, mam, that's piracy you are talking about.
"Well…sort of," I dodged. "I also cover events and launches", I said, for absolutely no reason.
"Eh? So you also do part time event management, also?"
I starred at her blankly. My mind had zoned out from the lack of intelligence in presence. Seeing my plight, my mom picked up another gossip topic from her hat and diverted my stupid relative from being at the receiving end of an almost-thought-of sarcastic comment.
Reading the 'chat log', I believe I have been crystal clear at describing my work. So what part of 'editor' is that is not comprehensible? Or is it the 'gaming' factor that they can't wrap their heads around? I mean, why would they need an editor for Bingo and Monopoly, right?

Ah, good ol' Summer. We Houstonians both love and despise the hottest months of the year. Swimming, barbecues, and longer days are great, naturally, but the heat and higher electric bills, not so much.
Last week, we discussed the importance of an annual A/C inspection. But your A/C's effectiveness is only part of your home's overall energy-efficiency, and there are numerous other elements of your home that contribute to how hard your A/C must work to keep you cool.
Let's look at some of the top strategies for conducting a DIY home energy audit:
- Energy Vampires: All of those appliances and electronics that are plugged in but aren't in use still leech power and amount for as much as 8% of your annual energy spend. Unplug video game consoles, cell phone chargers, kitchen appliances, and other devices when not in use.
- Lighting: The latest and greatest energy-efficient light bulbs use as much as 75% less energy than traditional incandescents. Because lighting accounts for around 10-15% of a typical home's energy consumption, those savings will be noticeable.
- Air Leaks: Air leaks can account for as much as 1/3 of your monthly energy bills. Yep, 1/3. As your home settles, gaps can form around windows, doors, even light switches and electrical outlets. All of these seemingly innocuous gaps cause your A/C to have to work harder to compensate for all the warm air coming in through all those spaces. Filling them in with caulking or installing fresh weatherstripping can help keep your room temperature more comfortable and your A/C calmer.
- Appliances: Energy-efficient appliances nowadays are quite impressive. An energy-efficient washer and dryer set, for example, can save from 75-90% on energy consumption compared to older non-efficient models. Because of this, many energy-efficient appliances actually pay for themselves in their combined energy savings, meaning you're pocking potentially hundreds of dollars every year. Even if you're not ready to replace your older appliances, make sure they're in tip-top shape. Clean out vents, keep the area around your appliances dust and debris-free, and lower the temperature settings on your fridge and freezer. And remember to keep that fridge / freezer door closed!
- Insulation: Few things can cause more stress and strain on your air conditioner than poor insulation throughout your home. Not sure if your home is lacking insulation? A professional insulation assessment can help you identify opportunities to boost your home's ability to block out heat, greatly reducing your energy bills. For example, radiant barrier can limit the amount of heat transfer from your roof to your attic and, therefore, to the rest of your home.
- Monitor your results: Comparing one month to the next won't tell you much, but lining up the numbers from one year to the next can be telling. Create a spreadsheet or keep a notebook nearby, and record your costs and your consumption. You'll be amazed at how even the smallest changes can add up over time!
If you've exhausted all your DIY efforts and are still paying more than you think you should, schedule a professional Houston energy audit today, and start saving.

A-Rod back in Yankees lineup at 3rd vs Twins
August 21, 2011 - 11:25 AM
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Alex Rodriguez is back in the New York Yankees lineup for the first time in more than a month.
Rodriguez has been out since July 7 because of surgery on his right knee.
After returning to the team on Thursday, Rodriguez worked out for three days to improve his conditioning.
Manager Joe Girardi inserted him into the lineup on Sunday for the series final against the Minnesota Twins.
Rodriguez is hitting cleanup and playing third base.

Disabled veterans concentrated in Tacoma area
The communities surrounding Tacoma have the highest per capita population of seriously disabled Iraq and Afghanistan veterans on the West Coast, according to Department of Veterans Affairs records obtained by McClatchy Newspapers and analyzed by The News Tribune.
The News Tribune
The communities surrounding Tacoma have the highest per capita population of seriously disabled Iraq and Afghanistan veterans on the West Coast, according to Department of Veterans Affairs records obtained by McClatchy Newspapers and analyzed by The News Tribune.
Veterans come to the region for reasons that are obvious on a drive down Interstate 5. Some finish their military careers at Joint Base Lewis-McChord; others seek medical care at the base's Warrior Transition Battalion before they leave the service.
They stay for the resources at Puget Sound Veterans Affairs hospitals and clinics, as well as for the region's diverse economy and its generally supportive attitude toward veterans.
"They live here because they're welcome here. I honestly believe that," said retired Army Lt. Col. Jake Holeman, 66, a Vietnam veteran and an officer in Lakewood's chapter of Disabled American Veterans.
But even with the goodwill, the presence of thousands of seriously disabled veterans poses new and lasting challenges for the region as it learns to assimilate the generation of service members who bore the brunt of a decade of combat in the Middle East.
"We're going to have more," said Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., chairwoman of the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee. "That's what concerns me. We have thousands of veterans coming home from Iraq and Afghanistan in the next year and a half, and that could overwhelm the system very quickly."
She and other policy makers foresee challenges for disabled veterans as the wars end, such as:
. The Department of Veterans Affairs has expanded to meet a growing demand for behavioral health treatment, yet it suffers from a backlog in caring for post-traumatic stress disorder, according to records Murray obtained. The VA hospital in Seattle appears to be the exception, with consistently quick turnarounds for patients seeking help for PTSD.
. Nearly half of disabled veterans from all generations recently surveyed by the Pew Research Center said their combat injuries prevented them from holding down steady work after they left the service, according to a study released last week.
. About half of homeless veterans have disabilities compared with 40 percent of the nation's civilian homeless population, according to Housing and Urban Development statistics.
The VA data obtained by McClatchy shows that 2,605 seriously disabled Iraq and Afghanistan veterans live in Washington communities with ZIP codes beginning with 983, such as DuPont, Puyallup and Bremerton. That is a ratio of 365 seriously disabled veterans for every 100,000 residents.
The numbers drop off for Tacoma and communities with ZIP codes beginning with 984. Together, they have 1,144 seriously disabled Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, for a ratio of 286 for every 100,000 residents.
Olympia and Lacey have a similar mix, with 1,351 seriously disabled veterans making a ratio of 284 for every 100,000 residents.
(For their analysis, The News Tribune and McClatchy determined that a seriously disabled veteran is one given a disability rating of 50 to 100 by the VA. This means they are from 50 percent to 100 percent unable to perform their jobs in the military.)
Communities with greater concentrations of disabled Iraq and Afghanistan veterans tend to have significant military medical resources. For example, San Antonio has 719 seriously disabled residents for every 100,000 residents. That city is near Brooke Army Medical Center, which provides medical care for wounded soldiers.
Retired Staff Sgt. Jim Dahl of Des Moines is one soldier who settled in the South Sound as he left the Army because of injuries he suffered in Iraq.
A member of a Georgia-based Ranger unit, he was sent to Lewis-McChord's Warrior Transition Battalion for medical care in 2008.
Dahl, 43, has wounds to his head, neck, back and legs, but he's considered disabled by the Department of Veterans Affairs because of the post-traumatic stress he developed during his deployments.
He said Puget Sound VA has treated him well, but he has not yet found PTSD counseling he trusts. He avoids anti-depressants and counseling because he finds they do more harm than good.
Instead, he tries to live simply, takes cooking classes and is putting together a plan to open a bed and breakfast where veterans can relax by working with horses.
"You work with the horses, and the horse will listen to anything you got to say," he said. "They're not going to judge, and they're not going to tell you you just need to get over it."
He worries the VA isn't ready for the thousands of service members who will be seeking care for PTSD and brain injuries in the near future.
"They didn't expect the war to go on as long as it did, and they didn't expect it to be as violent as it was," he said.
Already, the workload at the VA Puget Sound is daunting. Its operating budget soared to $559.7 million in 2010, up from $499.7 million in 2008. It cared for 80,609 patients last year, up from 62,920 in 2008.
More than 15,000 of last year's patients were younger than 44.
Like Dahl, retired Army Sgt. 1st Class Mynor Gaitan, 40, came to Lewis-McChord for care in its Warrior Transition Battalion. He left the Army in September and is still awaiting a final disability rating that will help determine his lifetime benefits and pension.
Gaitan endured repeated explosions during his third deployment to Iraq in 2005-06, when his job called on him to clear roads of improvised bombs with Lewis-McChord's 14th Engineer Battalion.
Gaitan looks back and sees that he showed signs of PTSD after the deployment. He had a quick temper and would sometimes choose to sleep in his car rather than go inside with his family.
"I was an angry, depressed person - isolated," he said.
His wife in 2009 told him to seek treatment, but he still wanted to deploy to Afghanistan and he feared he'd be held back. A doctor at his base in Germany refused to clear him, and he began to face his ailments.
He and his family now live in Olympia, and he's surprised by the number of organizations that offer confidential help. He said he wished he had known about those services years ago.
State Rep. Tina Orwall, D-Des Moines, last week led a hearing in Olympia in which lawmakers advanced several bills to help veterans land on their feet when they leave the service.
She'd like to expand social services for former service members to access immediately after they leave the military. That can be a vulnerable period because it can take months for veterans to figure out how to get what they need from the VA.
The safety net for those veterans is not "nearly what it's going to need to be for the men and women coming back," Orwall said. "It's pretty scary."

We've been having a problem with ants coming into our house using the space between bottom of the T1-11 siding and the slab foundation where the siding overlaps the slab foundation. The siding does not sit flush with the concrete, so there are gaps.
My question is, should the T1-11 siding be sealed to the foundation? If so, how would this be done, and what would you use to do it? Thanks. -Roger |

The starter strip should not be sealed. If sealed, it will prevent needed ventilation. If sealed, you'll notice moisture damage in the future. Michael |
Michael, I'm not sure what a starter strip is, but the implication is that if one seals the bottom of the T1-11 flashing to the outside of the cement slab foundation, that since water (be it condensation or siding leakage that would normally flow down the vapor barrier) cannot drain out then there will be water damage? Is this about what you're saying? This does make sense, and is why I asked. Thanks. -Roger |
If there is a vapor barrier under the T1-11, that would be the case. A better reason is that the T1-11 should not be touching the concrete at all---for the same reason. Moisture damage to the wood from the moisture in the concrete. Current building codes specify only pressure treated wood should be in contact with concrete. The ant problem would not be cured by sealing the T1-11 anyways---it is almost impossible to seal them little critters out. We use bait hotels and I spray the trails with Deep Woods Off---lasts a long time and is not as dangerous to pets/grandkids as poisons. |
- Posted by mightyanvil (My Page) on Fri, Feb 2, 07 at 8:19
Is there a vapor barrier behind the T1-11? Do you live in a hot climate? |
"Current building codes specify only pressure treated wood should be in contact with concrete." Most codes only require PT if the wood-cement contact is less than a stated distance from grade. |
If its in contact with concrete it should have metal flashing separating it... ask your manufacturers, or see their guarantees. |
Okay, yes, there is a vapor barrier under the siding. No, T1-11 siding is not pressure treated. And if I were to seal it, which doesn't sound advisible, I would not use wood, so the sealant (whatever that might be) would be in contact with the wood and the cement. This would not change the present wood to cement contact. There might be flashing under the siding where it contacts the concrete foundation, I don't know at this point. Thanks. -Roger |

The most frequently asked questions I get about diseases and conditions of the eye concern cataract surgery and glaucoma. The 1990s have brought a unique and dynamic change in cataract extraction. The use of topical anesthesia (using drops to totally anesthetize an eye), instead of an injection behind the eye, makes for a safer procedure that is painless and allows for an almost instantaneous visual recovery.
Regarding the surgery itself, it has progressed from a large incision with stitches to a micro incision of less than 3mm that has no stitches. The technique for removing the cataract is called phacoemulsification or "phaco."
In this state-of-the-art process, a delicate surgical instrument is inserted through a microscopic incision in the eye. It generates ultrasonic (sound) waves that gently break up the cataract into small pieces. The cataract is then suctioned out through the microscopic opening. An intraocular lens is permanently inserted to give the patient excellent vision again.
Why does no-stitch microincisional cataract surgery make such a big difference?
1) Quick recovery—Most patients say they see well in 1-2 days after surgery.
2) Few restrictions—You can return to most activities the next day after surgery—drive, bend, wash your hair, do housework and even go to work.
Thus fulfilling the goal of an eye surgeon—helping patients to see their best to improve their quality of life.
The second big area in ophthalmology is the diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma. Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness in the United States. But loss of sight is usually preventable if you get treatment early enough. Glaucoma is a disease of the optic nerve (which carries the images we see to the brain). The higher the pressure inside the eye, the greater the chance of damage to the optic nerve. Glaucoma is most prevalent in people over the age of 40 and is usually symptomless, a "silent" disease that can cause irreparable damage before it is discovered.
How is glaucoma diagnosed?
Prevention involves early detection through a comprehensive eye examination, especially after the age of 40. In addition, visual fields are performed to detect blind spots or shrinkage of the peripheral field of vision as well as a picture of the nerve analyzing any early deterioration.
A new test, pachymetry, quickly and painlessly measures corneal thickness that helps more accurately to determine the real intraocular pressure.
How is glaucoma treated?
Damage to the optic nerve cannot be reversed. The goal of glaucoma treatment is to prevent further damage and preserve the highest possible level of vision. The first line of defense is drops to lower the pressure, medication usually must continue for life to effectively reduce eye pressure and preserve vision.
In addition, laser treatments done in an office setting have been equally effective in lowering pressure. If these are not sufficient, then surgery is recommended to effectively lower eye pressure.
Treatment of glaucoma requires teamwork between you and your doctor. Your ophthalmologist can prescribe treatment, but only the patient can make sure they take their eye drops. These are new and exciting developments occurring in the field of ophthalmology making great promise for the future of clear vision and its preservation.

Officially informing them of that obligation, while also potentially
offering to assist with any questions they might have provides an
opportunity for the Consortium to provide a layer of "service" that
*might* give companies that choose to use Linux and Open Source software
for Audio/Video/Multimedia some additional confidence that they are not
going to do their reputations/Brand any damage with negative publicity in
the unlikely event of a legal challenge.
It's not a threat just an opportunity to reach out and potentially give
them the confidence to contribute directly rather than keeping *all* their
advances to themselves for fear of loosing a competitive advantage or
getting themselves into hot water with authors of code that they might
build on.
It's just a way for the company to say. We acknowledge that we are
building on Open source technology and IP and we are prepared to be
transparent about our use of it.
If all the businesses that use Linux Audio Software are actively
contributing back into the community then we have greater leverage for
positive publicity and it's highly probable that everyone will gain
through the shared IP and knowledge.

bathroom extractor fan into roof space
I have a ceiling bathroom extractor fan with a 4inch flexi that goes up through the attic, along, then connected to a capped pipe that sits upwards in the roofspace, ending about 6 inches away from the top at the roof felt.
In the next room (under where this pipe is) I seem to have a slight damp patch. Is this because of condensation coming from steam in the roofspace when the extractor is in use? The roofspace is vented, but just wondered.
Do i have to extend the pipe more so it goes out through the roof? if so, what do I need to do that. My roof is fibre cement slates.

It should be vented outside the property, either through an external wall or in your case through the roof via a tile vent

The Insider's Guide to Shoe Shopping
On the hunt for new shoes this season? Here's a list of what you should be looking for while you shop, courtesy of famed shoe designer Anyi Lu. (Lu has been designing shoes that feature both supreme Italian construction and modern-day comfort technology for more than five years now. Check out some of her latest styles here.) Happy shopping!
1. Anti-skid soles: They'll help you stay balanced, while also preventing sudden slipping or sliding in damp weather.
2. A wide toe box: Make sure your toes have enough room to spread out (i.e., they shouldn't feel scrunched up or restricted when trying on).
3. An evenly balanced heel: Place the shoes on a flat surface before buying to make sure they don't wobble. This indicates proper construction, which results in more comfortable wear in the long run.
4. Leather lining: Surprisingly, leather lining allows for breathability, as well as expansion and contraction when necessary. After a long day of walking, your feet tend to swell; leather will expand with your foot but also revert back to its original shape the next day.
5. A snug heel: Make sure the end of the shoe, technically referred to as the "heel counter," properly holds your heel in place. Heavier heels tend to slip off your foot as you walk, so Lu recommends looking for either a lighter shoe or an ultra-snug fit.
6. Size: Lu suggests trying on three sizes before you buy: the size you usually wear, one half size smaller than that, and one half size larger. This ensures you find the perfect fit every time, since different brands and even different styles within the brands tend to vary.
7. Wear-test on a hard surface: Carpeting gives a false sense of cushion and comfort, so when trying on, find a hard surface at the store to walk on.
8. Price: Lu encourages you to think about shoes on a "price per wear" basis. If you're buying an expensive shoe, then make sure it's built to last in terms of appearance and construction before you buy.

Consumers Businesses
WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with the firm named below, today announced a voluntary recall of the following consumer product. Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed. It is illegal to resell or attempt to resell a recalled consumer product.
Name of Product: Chariot bicycle trailers and bicycle trailer conversion kits
Units: About 44,000 bicycle trailers and 70,000 bicycle trailer conversion kits
Manufacturer: Thule Child Transport Systems Ltd., d/b/a Chariot Carriers, of Calgary, Canada
Hazard: The bicycle trailer's hitch mechanisms can crack and break, causing the trailer to detach from the bicycle. This poses an injury hazard to children in the bicycle trailer.
Incidents/Injuries: The firm has received 24 incident reports worldwide, three of which occurred in the United States, involving the bicycle trailers and the conversion kits. No injuries have been reported.
Description: Chariot Carriers convert to strollers, jogging strollers and bike, hike or ski trailers. This recall involves Chariot bicycle trailers and bicycle trailer conversion kits. Recalled trailers have serial numbers from 1205-xxxx to 0710-xxxx (representing manufacture dates December 2005 through July 2010) located the left side on the frame. Recalled conversion kits have hitch arms that attach the carrier to the bicycle with model number "20100503" printed on a label attached to the aluminum tube next to the warning label. Older conversion kits without a label, but with a release push button located where the hitch arm inserts into the carrier, are also being recalled.
Sold at: Specialty bicycle stores nationwide and on various websites from December 2005 through August 2010 for between $400 and $925 for Chariot bicycle trailers and from October 2002 through August 2011 for between $40 and $70 for bicycle trailer conversion kits.
Manufactured in: Canada
Remedy: Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled bicycle trailers and bicycle trailer conversion kits and contact Chariot Carriers for a free repair kit which the consumer can install.
Consumer Contact: For more information, contact Chariot Carriers at (800) 262-8651 between 10 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's website at www.chariotcarriers.com

CPSC is committed to protecting consumers and families from products that pose a fire, electrical, chemical or mechanical hazard. CPSC's work to help ensure the safety of consumer products - such as toys, cribs, power tools, cigarette lighters and household chemicals -– contributed to a decline in the rate of deaths and injuries associated with consumer products over the past 40 years.
