Kent CountyAbout Our Rescue Group:
Our mission is to improve the lives of feral cats through education and action, following the humane methods of Trap-Neuter-Return, and thus treating every feral cat with the compassion and respect they deserve.The Humane Answer: Trap-Neuter-Return
If you've ever seen cats in an alleyway eating out of dumpsters, or blending into the wild habitat of a wooded area, and wondered about their condition and how you could help them, read on...
Some of them, having been lost or abandoned, have found their way to a colony where they can survive amongst other felines. But the majority live out their lives as feral, or "wild", cats. Being either born in the wild and never having had human contact, or reverting to a wild state after having been abandoned; the great majority of feral cats cannot be tamed. Generally, attempts at taming or adoption of ferals prove to be fruitless. Our efforts can be realized one-hundred-fold if we do the greatest good for the greatest number of ferals by stopping the cycle of reproduction.
Communities can help these forgotten cats by providing them with food, water, shelter, and spaying/neutering services through the "Trap-Neuter-Return" full management program.
Briefly, TNR consists of the humane trapping, sterilization, and return of feral cats to their familiar habitat to be cared for daily by dedicated volunteers. Kittens under eight weeks and/or tame cats are placed into adoption programs.
For more in-depth information on TNR, please visit our links page to visit the Alley Cat Allies web site or the Feral Friends web site.
Come Meet our Pets:
Our adoption center is located at 7962 Clyde Park SW Byron Center. Our open adoption hours are every Thursday 6-8pm and Sunday from 12-2pm. Come on out and meet the love of your life!'Our adoption facility houses so many kitties. The rest are in foster homes. If you want to meet a specific kitty, please inquire with us before attending an adoption event, so we can make every effort to have the requested kitties available!
For every kitten that is adopted another kitten will have a chance at a healthy happy life. Kitten season has been especially busy this year and we have been at capacity for some time now. Sadly this means people who want to help the cats and kittens in their area are being turned away because of limited resources.

While the Belfast side will certainly be aiming to make it into Sunday's final, they aren't getting ahead of themselves and are keeping the focus firmly on their Scottish opponents.
"We've got to take care of business in the first game to give ourselves a chance," forward Colin Shields told UTV Sport.
He was captain last time the Giants won the Playoffs in 2010 and hopes the side can emulate that success, capping off the run of top form that saw them win the Elite league with 10 games to go.
"We were disappointed that we didn't take down the Challenge Cup as well," Shields admitted.
"This is obviously our last chance to win a trophy this year and we want to finish this season on a high. I think it would be disappointing if we didn't win the Playoffs after the season we've had."
The Belfast Giants have won four of their five games against the Fife Flyers this season, racking up 21 goals - but last time the two sides met, it was Fife who secured the 6-2 home win.
Fife are pretty aggressive offensively - they've got guys who can score ...Paul Adey, Belfast Giants
Fife are pretty aggressive offensively - they've got guys who can score ...
Paul Adey, Belfast Giants
On Saturday, the two sides will meet on neutral ground in Nottingham - where anything could happen under that playoff pressure.
But the Giants will be missing the services of injured forward Craig Peacock, while captain Adam Keefe has been a doubt.
"In a one-off game, you never know what the opposition are going to be doing, so we need to be ready for every possibility," Giants Head Coach Paul Adey said.
"They (Fife) haven't lost many games and it will be a tough match."
A win over the Flyers would secure Belfast's place in Sunday's final, where they would go head-to-head with the winner of the second semi-final between the Sheffield Steelers and Braehead Clan.
But the team aren't thinking that far ahead.
"We have a game to play on Saturday and that's the only place my focus is," Adey added.
"Everybody wants to win - that's why every team is there. Every team is just like us and the most important thing for us is our focus on Fife."
However, excitement will be building among fans conscious that this could be the 2013/14 roster's chance to make team history and become the first Belfast side secure a league and Playoffs double.
With a big home fight for Carl Frampton, Ulster Rugby set to face Saracens in their Heineken Cup clash at Ravenhill and the Giants in Playoffs action, it marks a massive weekend for Belfast sport.

BOSTON — A day after sending Jackie Bradley, Jr. to Pawtucket, general manager Ben Cherington made it clear Xander Bogaerts is in a different position.
"In our minds, this is where he needs to be," Cherington said. "We want him to be our shortstop for the rest of this season and allow him to work through what he's working through."
Cherington acknowledged that Bogaerts, who carried a .226 average and .293 on-base percentage into Tuesday night's game with the Angels, hasn't met the organization's expectations in 2014.
"Frankly, we did not expect him to go through struggles to this extent, because we've seen him be so good including at the major-league level," Cherington said. "Sure enough, it's happened. He's battling through that, and we're trying to help him in any way we can. It hasn't changed at all what we think of him or what we feel he's going to be."
Cherington said the team has plenty of confidence in Bogaerts' ability to be a long-term shortstop, and that the Red Sox would like to commit to a position for him.
"I think because he went from shortstop to third base, there were more questions externally as to what his position was than we were asking internally," said the GM. "We never felt like he couldn't play shortstop. We still feel that way, so now we're just getting an opportunity to see him play more there the rest of the year."

Frank Ocean, the man behind your favorite album of the year, wrote a song for Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained but it didn't make the soundtrack. Here's what the director said about it in a statement last month:
Frank Ocean wrote a fantastic ballad that was truly lovely and poetic in every way, there just wasn't a scene for it. I could have thrown it in quickly just to have it, but that's not why he wrote it and not his intention. So I didn't want to cheapen his effort. But, the song is fantastic, and when Frank decides to unleash it on the public, they'll realize it then.
Last night Frank posted the song on his Tumblr. Listen to it below, and check out the lyrics here.

it's frank ocean and I'm on stereogum so I guess I should say it's a masterpiece. oh yes, best song of the year, for sure. did I mention how incredibly mindblowing channel orange is? if not, I should have said it already. because I'm on stereogum and if you don't like it you might as well stop listening to music altogether because you don't know shit. wow frank ocean best artist EVER, don't you think?

it's just that i'm SO tired of reading names like kendrick lamar, frank ocean or asap rocky (i mean c'mon) mentioned right next to true artists and bands that released awesome albums this year like beach house, grizzly bear, cloud nothings, dirty projectors, tame impala, spritualized etc . stereogum is mixing apples and oranges. it's like when people mention britney spears or christina aguilera among the greatest pop artists to ever live, it gets on my nerves. it's not anything against BLACK people, it's just that they are not good, they are not bringing anything new to the table. their formulas have been used to death. go listen to michael kiwanuka if you want REAL black music with MEANING. I don't see his name anywhere on those end year lists.

it has become somehow "cool" now for stereogum to mix some shit among real music. i saw taylor swift on some of their lists recently, couldn't believe my eyes. what'll happen next? i wouldn't be surprised at all if it suddenly became "cool" for stereogum to support nickelback or lady antebellum or whatever. sell outs!

I put emphasis on that because it's the first thing everybody immediately points out, like the guy who commented before you. oh yes, because michael kiwanuka is SO white

'Medical' means 2-D or 3-D images, or ECG or EEG data.
Compression algos that work well on image data have little
chance to perform as well on audio signals - the 'features'
are quite different. Same for ECG or EEG data which are
quite specific (with some very sophisticated algos having
been developed to analyse them). None of this is likely
to have any relevance to audio.

Hey guys, could somebody please do me a humongous favor and measure the character and scenario cards in millimeters? I have sleeves in 90x128mm but I'm hoping to make sure they're the right size before I get the game. Thanks in advance!

No, you will need to find other sleeves. The large cards used in Relic (and Talisman and Descent and Dungeonquest etc) are 127mm x 101.6mm (5 inches by 4 inches).

Holy Grail for me. Yes, it is expensive but it's worth it. I love the skinny brush. It is so buildable without clumping and holds a curl. Doesn't smudge either, just a wonderfully perfect, simple mascara. I will for sure buy this again.

My current go-to mascara! I've tried a couple of other MAC mascaras as well as a ton of drugstore brands and the cult favorite, the Diorshow. I think this one works the best. It separates and lengths my lashes and it stays all day long. It doesn't smudge and it hasn't flaked off at all on me. It also washes off easily so I don't have terrible raccoon eyes every night! Love this mascara! And it's pretty amazing for the price.

I was desperate for a mascara that won't flake or smudge on me. I was at Mac purchasing other items and asked for a mascara that would last on my lashes and not give me dry brittle spidery lashes that I usually get from waterproof formulas. The MA gave me this one. It is a very wet formula and gives me length and definition. I like the small brush as it finds and coats every lash. No volume with this one unfortunately but since it does everything else that I need I am very happy with my purchase. Plus it doesn't irritate my sensitive eyes. Removal is easy with the Mac cleansing oil.

I don't understand the negative reviews. Anyways... This is absolutely perfect for your bottom lashes! It separates and lengthens. The wand makes it so easy to really get into your lashes! I also use this for my top lashes, but I always layer it with something like MAC mascara in Plushblack after. I've never had any problems with it flaking throughout the day. I've also never had any problems with washing it off! Definitely will keep buying.

I'm sorry but no.Why does MAC keep making such horrible mascaras? The only good and descent mascara I had used from MAC was Studio Fix and it was discontinued.
This didn't work for me.I was so excited to buy it because I kept reading all these rave reviews about it and I thought why not?-despite my traumatic experiences with other MAC mascaras (haute and naughty).
At first the packaging is really cute and reminds me of summer.The wand is quite small and I thought small therefore more handy.But no.The brush is so freakishly thin and tiny -not to mention toooo hard- that it is not so easy to handle and when applied it does not volumize my lashes at all.Not just a little bit.I have really long and thick eyelashes but they're straight and I need a mascara that gives me lots of volume.This did nothing except coating my lashes black.The only good thing about it is the rich black colour.My eyelashes are blonde so I need a good black mascara for them to show up otherwise it looks like I have none.
No more MAC mascaras for me.

I liked this mascara until I had to take it off.
The woman at the Macy's counter told me this is a tube mascara. Unlike other tubing mascara, this did not come off in tubes or flakes. Instead when I washed with my usual cleanser, it smudged under my eyes and stained the skin there. I had to dig out an oil-based makeup remover to get it off. Even with the oil, I had to really scrub under my eyes to get it off.
Also, unlike other tubing mascara, this is not at all waterproof or water resistant. I ran through a sprinkler and got a few drops of water on my face and the MAC mascara ran under my eyes. I could go swimming with my Blinc and Clinique tubing mascaras and they didn't come off.
I will stick to mascaras that are truly tube mascaras--that come off in warm water and wash away with no scrubbing.
Due to the difficult removal issues, I will be throwing this tube out. What a waste of $16.

Without a doubt my favorite mascara! I use this almost every day and have been for about four months. I love the way this applies, very very rarely clumps and never looks like you have too much on. I have fairly long lashes and this emphasises them beautifully without a false lash effect, which is something i prefer to avoid. Great, narrow brush so easy to apply with precision without getting it all over your face. Will happily repurchase.

Age: 25-29 Skin: Combination, Olive, Cool Hair: Black, Wavy, Medium Eyes: Green
This is, and has been, my go to mascara for two years now...since its release. First the brush is VERY tiny. Which I love! it allows me to get every single lash, and absolutely no clumping, EVER! My lashes are insanely long but very thin..so they clump very easily. With Extended Play that has never been an issue. Another bonus is this mascara coats your lashes in little "tubes" so no flaking or smudging. Even when working out/sweating. I use this everyday, but in different ways. For a more natural lash look I love to layer two coats of Extended Play for a soft length and volume. When I want to do a dramatic "false lash" look I layer this under a volume boosting mascara. My go tos are MAC Opulash, or good old Loreal Voluminous. This is one of the few department store mascara I find to be worth the investment! I would say a tube of this last me 5 months, with daily use, which I don't think is bad. If you have long, thin lashes this is definitely worth a try. Nothing else I've found defines quite like this. Which is important when laying so you don't have the dreaded "spider lash".

I think I 've found my holy grail mascara. So easy to apply in the morning. LAST ALL DAY. till the night. It is so confortable, I have sensitive eyes and around 4-5 PM, my eyes get irritated by mascara. not with this one. Easy to take it off.
If I go to yoga, it will not smudge and I can easily take it off after in the shower, with soap and water. I also like the small size. A tube last at least 4 months with everyday use. Will repurchase for sure!

I just started using this mascara so I may have to update at some point. This seems to be a very good mascara. It gives nice definition, decent length, and a big plus for me, no clumps. What really impressed me is that after 6 or 7 hours of wear, there was NOT ONE flake.. Flakes are really a pet peeve of mine. The true test will be after I have this for a couple of weeks because I have been disappointed in the past with other mascaras that work great at first and then after a couple of weeks of use the formula gets dry and you get flakes. I will update after a couple of weeks, so far so good.
Update 5/31/2014: Great mascara.. holds up well unlike other mascaras that dry out after several weeks of use. Purchasing again.

It's quite possible that many of the parents who bring their kids to RollerLand Skate Center spent their own childhoods at the rink. The Trevena family has run RollerLand for more than 30 years, long before America elected its first roller-skating president. In that time, the entertainment center has hosted countless parties, charity fundraisers, and regular skate sessions.
Today, RollerLand carries its past into the present. DJs play Top 40 hits as skaters roll across the 12,000 sq. ft. skating floor during open skates or Teen Nights on Fridays. Away from the rink, guests can find staple amenities, such as a concession stand that serves nachos and corndogs, arcade games that spew out redemption tickets, and colorful tubes that snake throughout a three-story play structure. One thing stands out, however¬—a large vault door that looks like something out of a heist movie. Inside waits the Laser Maze, an ever-changing game that challenges its participants to stretch and bend around bright green beams of light.
Cliff Drysdale, a 45-time Davis Cup veteran, is more than a familiar face in professional tennis?he's one of its signature voices as well, having spent more than 30 years commentating matches on ESPN. Students of his coaching system get to tap into that deep well of experience at In-Shape Sport clubs all across California. At each location, experienced tennis pros lead four-week clinics that cover the fundamentals of the sport, organize competitive leagues for more advanced players, and tailor lessons to teens. Additionally, tennis socials help guests practice the sport as they meet fellow players and use particularly ferocious serves to deliver their phone number to an opponent.
When parents throw a party at Inflatable Fun, all they need to bring is the kids and a cake. A private party host serves up pizza and drinks, cuts up the cake, and even helps load presents into the family car. Meanwhile, all the parents have to do is kick back and look on as their kids bounce around the center's inflatable structures.
Inside the classic bounce house, kids learn what it would be like to live on a cloud or atop a giant's belly. In the 900-square-foot obstacle course, they ricochet through air-filled corridors as they search for the exit. Open play times never get too crowded, as the staff admits just up to 20 kids for each hour-long slot.
The community-minded Kiwanis club cut the ribbon on Kiddieland more than half a century ago, and with updates to the rides, the park continues to draw crowds for spirited family fun. A day pass to the amusement park lets kids jump into lines for unlimited enjoyment of the six rides, including the Go-Gator rollycoaster, a swirling track that speeds carts down hills, around curves, and through imaginary gazelle herds. Wee ones channel their inner Jeff Gordons on the car ride and their inner astronauts on the rocket-ship ride. A park classic, the train chugs along, taking passengers on a nostalgic trek through the lush Applegate Park grounds. Meanwhile, helicopter rides show off the thrills of flight, lifting and twisting with passengers, and the merry-go-round exudes carnival atmosphere with festive music and brightly painted horses who have luxurious manes of cotton candy. Though not included with today's Groupon, the snack bar offers younglings a break from dizzying heights and track-top fun.
When founder Mirella discovered pole fitness, she realized it wasn't just a way to get in shape?it was also a way to express herself and feel confident. Pole fitness serves as Polesque Vixens's signature class, teaching the basics of spinning and climbing the pole through exercises that engage muscles throughout the body. As they get more experienced, students can move on to specialized sessions that focus on more challenging spins or inversions. Outside of fitness classes, the studio also hosts parties to celebrate special occasions and photo shoots that allow students to document their alluring moves without the strain of lengthy portrait-painting sessions.

This is a discussion on Kahr Owners Unite! What'cha Got? within the Defensive Carry Guns forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Pm9 Kahr1.jpg...
CM9 on me now; nary an issue with it, my CW9, or K9. Thousands of rounds through them, no problems or malfunctions with any Kahr handgun to date. The CM9 is normally my pocket gun (since I can't even hit the floor with any of the pocket .380's it seems). Now, when I get out today, the little Kahr will be replaced by a somewhat larger pistol since it's chilly and I will have a jacket on.
I have a PM9 - but only because it is the only gun in its class. As soon as someone else makes a 9mm that is as small (or smaller), that takes +P ammo, that locks the slide open when empty, that has night sights, that has a CT laser available, and that does not have a thumb safety or a mag disconnect...I will likely buy it and rid myself of my fourth (and last) Kahr.
Why? My latest PM9 will not feed 147 gr ammo (Gold Dots) reliably. It will not feed from the 7-rd mag reliably. It will not reliably load using the slingshot or overhand method (yes, I know the manual says to use the slide lock lever...but when you have thousands of reps doing it differently with your Glocks, it sometimes happens that you revert to what you are used to doing - especially under stress). My current PM9 has over 700 rounds through it, and I did indeed rack the slide a whole bunch of times before using it the first time, so the "it needs to be broken in" excuse ain't flying over here.
Kahrs are finicky little beasts with tight tolerances - at least, the poly ones are. I have no personal experience with the steel ones. I only put up with it because it is the only game in town at the size it is at, with the specs I listed above. When some other maker comes up with some real competition to the PM9...I will likely give it a go, after it has been out for a year or so.
The more good folks carry guns, the fewer shots the crazies can get off.

Sounders decline to comment on report by Sports Illustrated that designated player Eddie Johnson is being shopped around the league, but the prospect wouldn't be a big surprise given his up-and-down run with the team.
Seattle Times staff reporter
Latest from the Sounders FC blog
Weekend Watch: Must-see matches from around the world NEW - 1/30, 12:21 PM
Sounders FC and the league office are actively shopping Eddie Johnson around Major League Soccer, according to a Sports Illustrated report citing an unnamed MLS team executive.
Johnson, Seattle's leading scorer the past two seasons, is currently serving with the U.S. national team ahead of exhibitions against Scotland and Austria.
The Sounders declined to comment on the report.
A tenuous status wouldn't come as a huge surprise; the 29-year-old forward has had a roller-coaster run with the team and wasn't brought up in a Monday conference call with general manager Adrian Hanauer looking forward to next season.
Johnson's desire for a pay raise has also been no secret, which could be an issue for a team often constrained by the salary cap. That isn't to say he isn't due more than his $150,000 salary after having scored 23 regular-season goals the past two years — second-most in Sounders history — not to mention his revival with the national team.
But there have been off-the-field concerns, as Johnson has been subject to team and league discipline during his time in Seattle. He also drew attention to himself in August for a controversial "Pay me!" goal celebration.
Johnson has an option year in his contract for 2014, according to Hanauer, who added, "I think I've been made pretty aware that that's probably not a salary that he wants to play at."
On Monday's conference call, Hanauer had noted "there could be some decent turnover on our roster" this offseason.
Trading the team's top scorer the past two years would certainly qualify.
Dempsey injures calf with USMNT
Clint Dempsey has been forced to withdraw from the U.S. national team after suffering a right calf strain during practice Wednesday. The USMNT captain won't be available for the exhibitions against Scotland and Austria.
The injury is just the latest in a tough run for Dempsey since he signed with Seattle in August. The 30-year-old also had issues with his hamstring and shoulder in his three months with the Sounders before this latest setback.
No replacement will be made to fill Dempsey's place on the roster.

New Revised Standard (NRS) | New International Version (NIV) |
6 I was very angry when I heard their outcry and these complaints. | 6 When I heard their outcry and these charges, I was very angry. |
7 After thinking it over, I brought charges against the nobles and the officials; I said to them, "You are all taking interest from your own people." And I called a great assembly to deal with them, | 7 I pondered them in my mind and then accused the nobles and officials. I told them, "You are exacting usury from your own countrymen!" So I called together a large meeting to deal with them |
8 and said to them, "As far as we were able, we have bought back our Jewish kindred who had been sold to other nations; but now you are selling your own kin, who must then be bought back by us!" They were silent, and could not find a word to say. | 8 and said: "As far as possible, we have bought back our Jewish brothers who were sold to the Gentiles. Now you are selling your brothers, only for them to be sold back to us!" They kept quiet, because they could find nothing to say. |
9 So I said, "The thing that you are doing is not good. Should you not walk in the fear of our God, to prevent the taunts of the nations our enemies? | 9 So I continued, "What you are doing is not right. Shouldn't you walk in the fear of our God to avoid the reproach of our Gentile enemies? |
10 Moreover I and my brothers and my servants are lending them money and grain. Let us stop this taking of interest. | 10 I and my brothers and my men are also lending the people money and grain. But let the exacting of usury stop! |
11 Restore to them, this very day, their fields, their vineyards, their olive orchards, and their houses, and the interest on money, grain, wine, and oil that you have been exacting from them." | 11 Give back to them immediately their fields, vineyards, olive groves and houses, and also the usury you are charging them--the hundredth part of the money, grain, new wine and oil." |
12 Then they said, "We will restore everything and demand nothing more from them. We will do as you say." And I called the priests, and made them take an oath to do as they had promised. | 12 "We will give it back," they said. "And we will not demand anything more from them. We will do as you say." Then I summoned the priests and made the nobles and officials take an oath to do what they had promised. |
13 I also shook out the fold of my garment and said, "So may God shake out everyone from house and from property who does not perform this promise. Thus may they be shaken out and emptied." And all the assembly said, "Amen," and praised the Lord. And the people did as they had promised. | 13 I also shook out the folds of my robe and said, "In this way may God shake out of his house and possessions every man who does not keep this promise. So may such a man be shaken out and emptied!" At this the whole assembly said, "Amen," and praised the LORD. And the people did as they had promised. |

Location, just around the corner from North Michigan avenue and Water Tower Place Bed was very comfortable
no View. We paid for a room with city view, but the windows were so humid and foggy we couldn't see anything outside. We didn't have this issue in other high rise buildings so it can't be a weather issue. Indifferent Staff 30$ early booking fee it's completely ridiculous
The location is perfect, you can reach the majority of Chicago attractions by foot.
Location, friendly staff, cozy room.
I had to pay an extra fee when we were checking out and I don't even know what is was for, they didn't explain that good enough to me.
I feel like MileNorth was exactly what they had advertised. It had a fun view with storm clouds settling in on the tops of the buildings. Very cool bathroom, nice size shower with a high shower head. I enjoyed the individual coffee maker, as only one of us was a coffee drinker. Comfortable bed with nice pillows. Great experience overall.
The hygiene products were less than desirable. It takes a lot of pumps of shampoo to wash your hair.
Loved the location and room! Very clean. Loved the modern decor. Friendly staff.
I don't believe this hotel serves complimentary coffee in the morning. The bar sells Starbucks.
I loved the location , steps from Michigan Ave. I liked the setup of the room
No pool , No room service after a certain time , no vending machines , no ice machine on every floor , hotel lobby is kinda boring after a certain time ....
Friendly and helpful desk staff. Lovely lobby. Comfortable bed and lounge area in room.
Small bathroom. Sink was cracked. Coffee amenities seemed cheap for price of room.
The room is huge and very comfort. Very convenient .
I found some dirts in the carpet. I'm not sure what it was .
Wow. I've stayed here before, and it was fine, but the renovation has really lifted the feel of this place. Gym is suitable, and value is unbeatable for location. This will be my recommended hotel for friends visiting Chicago.
Downtown parking fee. All hotels hover around $60/night. Use one of the inline parking tools (spot hero, parking wiz, etc) to find a better value. We parked across the street at NU for ~$45.
This hotel was amazing.I loved how it sat off the Magnificent Mile but yet wad walking distance to everything.Staff was very nice and helpful.Hotel was comfortable and clean and very quite.I liked having only a Handful of rooms per floor.I would recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to Chicago.
We had a room that was on the side of other buildings so it was a straight shot of buildings.So view wasn't that greatest but that was no big deal.
Great location .....close to restaurants and shopping
Didn't realize WiFi is automatic room charge.....around $7 per night
Excellent value for the money and location. Very charming roof top. I would definitively go back.
Small bathroom. The city view from the 8th floor was not very charming (a large not used terrace faced our windows).
location and staff!!
television terrible!! vent system blew right on bed! uncomfortable
cleanliness, decor, helpful staff
incidental charges...waiting to be credited back to me
Service, excellent location, confort, good decoration.
When I checked the price for the night, it was half the price that we paied
Near to Michigan Avenue Big rooms Free Internet
One of the elevators did not worked for 2 days. Noisy A/C-heating system
Hote was very convenient to many destinations. Decor was great and very welcoming and comfortable. Staff was very attentive, wished we had more time to check out the rooftop bar! Would highly recommend.

Will I need a tetanus shot for a cut, scrape, or puncture wound?
Most people in the United States have been immunized against tetanus (lockjaw). If the affected person has been immunized, he or she will need a booster shot if they have not had one within 10 years (if it is a very dirty wound or occurs in a tetanus prone area, they will need a booster within five years). If affected person has never had a tetanus shot, or if their series is incomplete (fewer than three shots), they might need tetanus immunoglobulin, a medication that can prevent lockjaw.

Most Orders Ship Next Day
Hurry Don't Miss Out, Sale Ends Wednesday At Midnight!
Get A Head Start
The heights we list are after we prune your tree. Many Nurseries advertise heights before they prune, then cut off several feet before shipping. While this reduces their shipping cost, it gives their customer a shorter tree than they bargained for. The tree will likely need an extra year to grow back the growth that was trimmed. We prune your tree throughout its life. This process takes us longer, but gives you more branches and quicker production. Plus, we don't include the pot or root length in our measurements. This gives you an extra 1-2 ft. in tree size. Our larger trees are usually one to two years older than our smaller ones and will typically give you better, thicker shade the first full growing season.
Here's why it delights:
A Japanese Maple that has it all
The experts got it right when they named the Spring Delight Japanese Maple. With graceful branches that weep low to the ground, plus gorgeous spring and fall foliage, the compact Spring Delight works well in a wide range of planting locations. A low maintenance dwarf variety, it's a Japanese Maple you can either plant throughout the landscape or grow in a container and place on patios, decks--even terraces. Combining both beauty and convenience, home gardeners everywhere are discovering the many benefits of incorporating the Spring Delight into their design plans. Delight in the Color each Season
When winter finally releases its cold grip, spring will welcome a flood of wonderful, light green leaves on your Spring Delight Japanese Maple tree. Offset by edges painted in red, the beautiful palm-shaped foliage lasts all season long. In the fall, the green leaves turn a brilliant orange that will brighten your landscape. The show of color in both seasons makes Spring Delight the perfect choice for use as an accent piece, for general garden purposes or even as part of a mass planting scheme.
This is one Japanese Maple you don't want to pass up. Order yours today.
Select a site with full to partial sun and moist or well drained soil for your Spring Delight Japanese Maple. First, dig each hole so that it is just shallower than the root ball and at least twice the width. Then loosen the soil in the planting hole so the roots can easily break through. Use your shovel or try dragging the points of a pitch fork along the sides and bottom of the hole.
Next, separate the roots of your Spring Delight Japanese Maple gently with your fingers and position them downward in the hole. The top of the root flare, where the roots end and the trunk begins, should be about an inch above the surrounding soil. Then make sure the plant is exactly vertical in the hole. To make it just right, use a level.
As you backfill the hole, apply water to remove air pockets. Remove debris like stones and grass and completely break up any dirt clumps. Water your Spring Delight Japanese Maple again after the transplant is complete. To help retain some of that moisture, it's recommended that you place mulch around each plant to a depth of 2"-3" up to but not touching the trunk. Organic mulches such as wood chips also help to better soil structure as they decompose.
Due to cold weather in some parts of the country, we have suspended shipping to the areas that are shaded on the map below. Please view the diagram to determine if your area has been affected. This includes anyone in Growing Zones 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. If you are unsure of your growing zone, visit our Growing Zone Finder. We will resume normal shipping in the Spring. Please see the table below for your approximate ship date. If you live in a shaded area but wish to receive your product(s) now, please visit our contact us page here or call a customer service rep toll free at 888-504-2001.

In 1973, Mayo School of Health Sciences was established as an educational undertaking of Mayo Foundation. The first group of allied health professionals at Mayo were nurse anesthetists, who began assisting the Mayo brothers during the performance of their pioneering surgical procedures at Saint Marys Hospital shortly after its opening in 1889. The nurse anesthesia program is the oldest continuously operating training program for these skilled allied health professionals. In 1936, physical therapy was established as a component in the development of physical medicine and rehabilitation.
Today, Mayo School of Health Sciences has approximately 30 diverse health science programs at Mayo Clinic Rochester, Mayo Clinic Jacksonville and Mayo Clinic Arizona. Programs are offered at the associate degree, upper-level undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate levels. The school enrolls about 800 students each year, and most of its programs have a 100 percent employment rate at graduation.

Fibromyalgia (18)
Researchers from the Department of Internal and Integrative Medicine, University of Duisburg-Essen in Essen, Germany, performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of the effectiveness of meditative movement therapies or MMT (Qigong, Tai Chi and Yoga) for fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS).
Data bases were screened for randomized, controlled trials that compared MMT to controls with FMS. Outcomes of efficacy were for pain, sleep, fatigue, depression and health-related quality of life (HRQOL).
A total of 7 out of 117 studies with 362 subjects and a median of 12 sessions (range 8-24) were included.
Investigators from Bright Path Yoga in Plano, Texas discuss the benefits of yoga and meditation for fibromyalgia, a chronic syndrome characterized by widespread pain, sleep disturbance, stiffness, fatigue, headache, and mood disturbance. The author outlines a strategy for using yoga and meditation as a therapy for fibromyalgia sufferers.
A preliminary 8-week study with eleven participants found significant improvement in the overall health status of the participants and in symptoms of stiffness, anxiety, and depression. Significant improvements were also seen in the reported number of days "felt good" and number of days "missed work" because of fibromyalgia.
Researchers from University Medical Center in Freiburg, Germany, investigated the efficacy of an 8 week MBSR intervention (Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, a structured training in developing nonjudgmental awareness of moment-to-moment experience) with mindful yoga exercises, on enhanced well being of fibromyalgia patients.
In this 3-armed trial, a total of 177 female patients were randomized to one of the following conditions: (1) MBSR, (2) an active control procedure controlling for nonspecific effects of MBSR, or (3) a wait list.
The major outcome sought was for health-related quality of life (HRQoL) 2 months post-treatment. Secondary outcomes were disorder-specific quality of life, depression, pain, anxiety, somatic complaints, and a proposed index of mindfulness.
Researchers from Barcelona, Spain examined whether a psycho-educational intervention delivered to patients with fibromyalgia (FM) in a primary care setting was more effective than usual care for improving their functional status.
Of the 484 fibromyalgia patients eligible for screening from a database at Viladecans Hospital, 108 patients were randomly assigned to the intervention arm of the study and 108 patients were assigned to usual care. The intervention was made up of nine 2-hour sessions (5 sessions of education and 4 sessions of autogenic relaxation). The patients were assessed before and after the intervention with a battery of instruments (measuring sociodemographic data, medical comorbidities, functional status, trait anxiety, and social desirability).
Because recent systematic reviews of "psychological" therapies for fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) did not include hypnosis/guided imagery (H/GI), the authors performed a meta-analysis of the efficacy of H/GI in FMS.
Looking at outcomes for pain, sleep, fatigue, depressed mood and health-related quality of life, six clinical trials with a total of 239 subjects were analyzed. (The median # of Hypnosis/Guided Imagery sessions was nine, and the median number of patients in the groups was 20. Three studies performed follow-ups).
Researchers from L. Sacco University Hospital in Milan, Italy undertook an updated review of the underlying mechanisms that produce fibromyalgia (FM), and summarize viable treatment options. FM is described as a chronic pain syndrome characterized by widespread pain, fatigue, sleep alterations, and distress.
The authors state that emerging evidence points to problems with augmented pain processing within the central nervous system holding a primary role in the pathophysiology of this disorder.
Recent studies have identified distinct FM subgroups on the basis of clinical, neurochemical, and neuroendocrinological abnormalities. These include increased cerebrospinal fluid levels of substance P; excitatory amino acids; and functional abnormalities in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, as well as in the sympathoadrenal (autonomic nervous) system.
Researchers from Maharishi Ayurveda Health Centre in Lillehammer, Norway, performed a pilot study on 31 women with fibromyalgia, to see whether Ayurvedic treatment improved their condition.
Subjects each received an individually designed Maharishi Vedic physiological purification therapy, personal advice on daily routines and diet (including food intolerance), based on Ayurvedic principles. In addition, four agreed to instruction in TM (Transcendental Meditation) for help with stress, pain management and personal development. Ayurvedic herbal food products were provided for home treatment.
Researchers from the University of Louisville in Kentucky looked at whether Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction (MBSR) can reduce stress arousal in patients suffering from fibromyalgia.
An earlier study by this principal investigator showed that MBSR reduced depressive symptoms in patients with fibromyalgia with gains maintained at two months follow-up (Sephton et al., Arthritis & Rheumatism, 57:77-85, 2007).
This second study explored the effects of MBSR on basal sympathetic (SNS) activation among women with fibromyalgia. Twenty-four participants were tested before and after MBSR for anxiety, depressive symptoms, and SNS activation.
Researchers from the Unidad de Investigació Médica in Merida, Mexico, explored the efficacy of Ericksonian Hypnosis for managing the symptoms of fibromyalgia.
Forty-three female fibromyalgia patients were randomly assigned to receive either six months of Ericksonian hypnosis (n = 20) or a sham-hypnosis protocol (n = 23). Each month, measures were taken using the Patient and Physician Global Disease Assessment, a count of tender points, and the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ).
Researchers from the University of Sheffield in the UK evaluated the effectiveness of homeopathic treatment for reducing the symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
Using a triple-blind design, 103 patients were randomly assigned to homeopathic medicine or an identical placebo condition. Patients had monthly consultations with a professional homeopath for 6 months. Outcomes were measured on the MFI - Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory. Secondary outcome measures were the Fatigue Impact Scale (FIS) and the Functional Limitations Profile (FLP).
Ninety-two patients completed treatment in the trial (47 homeopathic treatment, 45 placebo). Eighty-six patients returned fully or partially completed posttreatment outcome measures (41 homeopathic treatment group who completed treatment, 2 homeopathic treatment group who did not complete treatment, 38 placebo group who completed treatment, and 5 placebo group who did not complete treatment). Seventeen of 103 patients withdrew from treatment or were lost to follow-up.
