Transboundary animal diseases: what are the risks in the EU and what does EFSA do?
Transboundary animal diseases are highly contagious diseases that can spread rapidly across national borders. They can cause high rates of death and disease in animals, thereby having serious socio-economic and sometimes public health consequences in affected countries. The Chair of EFSA's Animal Health and Welfare Panel, Simon More, explains what the risks for the European Union are and what EFSA does in this field.

On the front line - the world over
There's a world of difference between poultry farming in Siberia and Brazil. The same might be said of shrimp production in Thailand and Honduras. If you do business in China, it means taking into account the fact that their customs differ from those in Europe. And use of antibiotics in Europe is regulated much more rigorously than in the rest of the world.

Have 5 different hitches, each for a different truck or trailer. Now i just have one and it works great, well worth the money.
Reviewed By brent c (HAMPSTEAD, NC) Reviewed for a 2014 Dodge Ram —9/19/2014 5:44 AM
Good; I received the hitch faster than expected. Looks are good. Love the locking capabilities of the ball mount. Love the adjustability. Bad; The receiver locking pin is not designed for larger than a Class III hitch. It is about half an inch too short to lock. Do not be fooled by the pictures... You have to assemble the ball yourself. You will need two 1/2" drivers to tighten them together. This should have come from the manufacturer already assembled.
Reviewed By Thomas W (Overgaard, AZ) Reviewed for a 2009 Dodge Ram —8/5/2014 7:08 AM
Shipping was very fast and the 6" lowered mount arrived in perfect shape. I was disappointed to see it was made in China, but the polished finish was great and it appears very well made. It was easy to mount with the supplied locking pin and I installed a 2" ball to complete the installation. I have used it several times to pull a trailer and no problems, no clunking noises- it really does make a difference! It might be pricey but well worth it, I would recommend it to everyone!

I like the price of the glue, but it doesn't last long.
From iLash: Please make sure to clean the lashes thoroughly and use the Primer before applying and also a sealer afterwards. This will help the glue last the life of the lashes.

A little goes a long long way. Really fast drying. Love it.

The Sun Also Rises

Hemingway's first novel, written in that sparse style he became known for.

Add a CommentA patron review from the Adult Summer Game: "Have you ever wanted to run with the bulls? Hemingway writes it as the characters live it, in this post WWI era life transformation novel of Jake Barnes."
Even though the book seemed to be fast-paced, for me, it seemed to drag during most of the book as the characters bantered, drank, drank, drank and ate. Sometimes, I didn't know what was meant, but took that to mean slang/references of the 1920's. I had even forgotten that the term "tight" at one time meant "drunk." I enjoyed the later part about the bull fights as I remembered being a teenager in the 1960's watching the bullfights on channel 26 in Chicago and being quite inamoured with El Cordobes! Lol. I can see that this novel describes a small, interesting, eccentric group of people who were living the "eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow we may die" philosphy of the post WWI world. I kept wondering how they were able to live the high life with little money, but guess that was part of it: who needs money if you are going to die tomorrow?
The Sun Also Rises is my third novel by Ernest Hemingway. There is something fascinating about Hemingway, especially if you know even a little about him. He was a rambunctious man, never settling, always moving. His restlessness led to him being cast as the face of the so called "Lost Generation", a term recognized prominently in this work. He, along with other American expatriates living in Paris, became known for this and it would haunt them for the rest of their careers. Hemingway's generation, which matured in the 1920s, was often written off as not quite fitting in to their time or place, hence the title "lost generation".
Hemingway's novel encapsulates the feeling of being adrift perfectly in this novel. His story is about a bunch of American expatriates in Paris (like Hemingway himself) with the narrator being Jake Barnes, a former amateur bullfighter and newspaperman (again, like Hemingway himself). We start by focusing on Robert Cohn, a former boxer who hangs around Barnes. We learn all about him, with Hemingway painting a rather pathetic portrait of the man. The story is set in motion when Brett Ashley, Barnes's former lover comes back into his life. Over the course of a trip to a bullfight, the characters develop and grow, and then nothing much else in particular happens.
Don't get me wrong, I love that about the book. Just as Hemingway's other works, it's fairly anti-climactic and doesn't really go much of a place. It's a bit hard to describe why Hemingway's prose is so attractive if you haven't read any of him. There's something beautiful about his brusque, short, anonymous sentences. On their own, they mean nothing, but as a whole they coalesce into something extraordinary. There are passages that do nothing to advance the story and feel extraneous, yet if you think back on it it's these passages that burn the most vividly in the mind.
Hemingway's portrait of people is no better than here. Every character feels hyper-real. As if every crack, every twitch is exposed. By the end of the novel we feel like we know these people better than they know each other. In between Hemingway's vivid descriptions of bullfights and fistfights, there's something that pretty much sums up something unspoken. It's hard to describe after the fact, but during the experience it burns a hole in the brain, searing like the heat of a million hot stove tops. There is an essential truth here somewhere. Only I've lost it, and I suppose the only way to find it again is to read on.
Hemingway's novel is perhaps a bit lost on me. The narrative is rather straight forward, the language itself rather simplistic and yet extremely evocative. None of the characters are particularly sympathetic. And while the novel is considered one of the great works of fiction of "the lost generation" I'm not sure that I picked up on all of the themes and concepts Heminway is exploring. Definitely a novel that I would love to take apart in a classroom setting to really start digging into the text.
I have developed a great appreciation of Hemingway as I've grown older - the power of his spare prose and his haunting characters. Couldn't bare reading his books in high school.
A young Ernest Hemingway writes his first novel. I also appreciate his use of symbolism throughout the novel. This book gives a sense of perspective of drama and action.
I an rereading this book after 15-20 years and felt the need after reading "The Paris Wife" Must have been nice to wander around Europe watching bull fights, drinking and fishing with friends, although I don't think any one of them is happy.
Participants in our evening book discussion described Hemingway's novel as sad, depressing, with an overall feeling of loneliness. Their opinion of his "Lost Generation" was that their lives were void, wasteful, shallow, and filled with disillusionment. We found his writing to be very descriptive of the Jazz Age, second only to Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby. Everyone agreed that the characters drank...a lot.
Reading Paula McLain's The Paris Wife made me want to read this book again after a few decades. The most surprising thing about it is how contemporary Hemingway's writing is. His writing is lean and full of subtext and happy endings are nowhere to be found. Ole!

When David Porter and Paul Stacey hired me almost five years ago, they assured me I would find a home in an innovative, nimble and forward-thinking organization. They were right. BCcampus stoked my professional creativity in immeasurable ways; I learned a great deal about post-secondary education and technology, and the ways technology intersects with learning, teaching, and mediates and enables relationships of all kinds, if you use it right. I can honestly say I've never worked before with such committed, forward-thinking people. Just goes to show what can happen if you let people be free to do what they do best!
Three tricks to writing a tech story for non-developers
At BCcampus, we're all about technology. Our boilerplate is: "We are an educational technology organization ensuring B.C. learners, educators, and administrators get the best, most effective technologies and services for their learning and teaching needs."
Nevertheless, the main audience for the corporate web site consists of educators, administrators, instructional designers, librarians, and ministry officials. Not necessarily technologists, and certainly they all are people who don't have the time to delve into the finer points of software development in a blog post. In-depth articles are therefore not normally part of our content marketing strategy.
For that reason, Pressbooks Textbooks plugin story for the corporate blog was a tricky one to write, especially as a non-developer. Here are three tricks that got me from near-complete ignorance to published article:
1. Find a great subject matter expert
Brad, my colleague who developed the plug-in, has great communication skills. He was patient and enthusiastic, not only in explaining his work to me, but in conveying the relevance of his work to the end user. He asked me after the final draft was done if I thought anyone who is not a developer would care about the plugin he developed. I assured him – although the audience for the post is probably small, it does indeed extend beyond a coder community. If I hadn't been able to glean the story from Brad, I would have sought out someone else in the organization able to bridge the worlds of "software developer" and "the rest of us" to make the article relevant.
Because it is a really cool plug in, after all.
2. Give yourself lots of lead time
This wasn't an article I could put together in a morning. I met with Brad, and got access to the plug-in. After he demonstrated it for me, I played around with the technology myself, then started writing. I sent that first draft to Brad, who was able to clarify some mistakes and misperceptions. What an eye opener for me to find there are some subjects I can't grasp on the first go-round! I learned to pump up my humility levels and keep asking for clarification, rather than pretend I understood everything.
3. Focus on the benefits for the end users
I've touched on this in #1, but here's the thing: we were able to answer the question "Why would people use this technology? Why is it important to our corporate goals?" If I can't get an answer to that question, there's no sense writing about the subject. Brad started with the end goals before he even wrote the code. This makes him not only a good communicator, but a great developer too. More of them need to practice this skill.
In the end I think we were able to come to a blog entry containing a good mix of technical detail and every day language. It's very important to answer the "Why does this matter? Why is this relevant?" question. It extends the conversation to educators and open access advocates who are interested in exploring the ways technology supports open educational resources.
Adopting the Lean Startup ethos
Human beings are innately talented learners when given a clear and objective assessment. (page 144)
…science is one of humanity's most creative pursuits. I believe that applying it to entrepreneurship will unlock a vast storehouse of human potential. (page 283)
The Lean Startup: How Today's Entrepreneurs Use Continuous Innovation to Create Radically Successful Businesses made me mad, not because I thought author Eric Ries is wrong, but because he makes a lot of sense, and I wish I'd had these insights years ago. So I guess I'm mad in an inspired, actionable way.
In a nutshell: he makes the case for disruptive innovation, but only if it is rigorously measured, tested, and improved upon bit-by-bit as development happens. He calls for "small batch" design and development by cross-functional teams, borrowing from the principles of just-in-time manufacturing and applying them to new product development for software companies, new services offered by governments, or new projects by not-for-profit organizations. He prescribes a design cycle where assumptions are tested, improvements made, insights gained, and then the cycle starts again until, but-by-bit, a viable product with a proven market is built. He contends this iterative cycle applies not only to start-ups, but to established organizations as well.
"Teams that work this way are more productive as long as productivity is measured by their ability to create customer value and not just stay busy. True experiments are easy to classify as successes or failures because top-level metrics either move or they don't. Either way, the team learns immediately whether its assumptions about how customers will behave are correct." (Page 263)
As I read the book, I was sold on his insistence on testing and validating each assumption in the development of a new process or product. He calls it the build-measure-learn sequence. He makes the case for "building an adaptive organization, one that automatically adjusts its process and performance to current conditions." (Page 227)
I am a fanatic about metrics. I am known at work as a bit of a pain in the ass, because whenever someone asks my department: "can you make me a poster?" or "Could I order some stickers?" or worse yet "Look at this web site we built, isn't it cool? (and it usually is off-brand)," my response is: "We need a communication plan first; a way of measuring the success of the project." As a strategic communicator, I went through a year-long accreditation process that included showing evidence that I have learned the most effective ways of measuring success of my communication strategies. Besides, I have a very limited budget. I can't spend money on collateral or swag unless it shows some strategic value.
While reading The Lean Startup, I not only looked for ways the build-measure-learn sequence could help me in my work (in fact, I use A/B testing all the time in my newsletter already), but I applied it retroactively to the projects I have been involved with over my eighteen-year career.
I couldn't help but wonder if disruptive innovation had been done the way Mr. Ries suggests, the amazing projects I've been part of could have done that much better, and some of the failures could have been turned around, if only for the want of testing assumptions and learning to build something better based on those experiments.
Here's an example: I was once asked to help "raise awareness" of an online service offered by an organization I worked for (forgive my vague generalities in this example: I'm protecting the innocent). I asked my usual questions: "Who uses this service, who is it intended for?" The answer to that question was an incredibly broad subsection of the population, impossible to target meaningfully without the advertising budget of a large corporation. So I tried to drill down a little: "How do they use this service? Can they get a similar service somewhere else? What makes this service unique? Do you have some metrics? Can you show me some reports of who is using the service right now, so I can get a better idea of the target audience?"
The way the developers of this service made it sound: this was a service people could not get anywhere else, it was a great project, they "just needed to get the word out" and people would start using it. At first, it seemed like an exciting project. However, the answer to my last question pulled up short.
The developers didn't have any reports on hand: none. Not one metric. They thought they had been collecting some data (the service had been built years ago by this point), but turns out their reporting mechanism hadn't been properly working for many months, they couldn't pin down exactly when, and they hadn't even realized it until I asked. They pointed me to some web analytics, and I wasn't surprised to see they had a very low number of unique visitors, who bounced out within a minute, at a rate of over 80 per cent, indicating people were leaving the page as soon as they landed on it.
My conclusion: "just getting the word out" wouldn't get more people using the service. I couldn't help them unless they themselves were interested in making the service better. Based on the web metrics they gave me, I had to conclude their service wasn't solving some big hairy problem faced by even a small portion of their target market. They had no way of answering the most basic questions outlined in The Lean Startup:
1. Do consumers recognize that they have the problem you are trying to solve? 2. If there was a solution, would they buy it? 3. Would they buy it from us? 4. Can we build a solution for that problem? (p. 64)
This was an organization that prided itself on its commitment to disruptive innovation. They didn't want the bureaucracy of a larger organization to cramp their style. They were pleased to be given the funding and freedom to explore cool new technologies and deliver them to an audience that henceforth would wonder what they ever did without such amazing new applications. Their passion, knowledge, and skill was never an issue. However, as Eric Ries found:
It may seem counterintuitive to think that something as disruptive, innovative, and chaotic as a startup can be managed or, to be accurate, must be managed. Most people think of process and management as boring and dull, whereas startups are dynamic and exciting. But what is actually exciting is to see startups succeed and change the world. (Page 10)
And that's what made me mad about the above example. Maybe the developers did have an idea for a product their audience didn't even know they needed yet. But they hadn't learned, through a series of experiments, how that innovation might benefit their audience in the real world. Maybe more rigour, perhaps the Lean Startup method, would have brought their passion and commitment to fruition. And maybe we would now have a cool application that a lot of people use that I could point to as a great success.
Notable quotes
On not wanting to iterate in the open, and needing to have something "perfect" before you launch, because otherwise someone else might steal your idea:
If a competitor can out-execute a startup once the idea is known, the startup is doomed anyway. The reason to build a new team to pursue an idea is that you believe you can accelerate through the Build-Measure-Learn feedback loop faster than anyone else can. If that's true, it makes no difference what the competition knows. If it's not true, a startup has much bigger problems, and secrecy won't fix them. Sooner or later, a successful startup will face competition from fast followers. A head start is rarely large enough to matter, and time spent in stealth mode—away from customers—is unlikely to provide a head start. The only way to win is to learn faster than anyone else. (page 111)
On keeping the end in mind, and focusing efforts:
Remember that although we write the feedback loop as Build-Measure-Learn because the activities happen in that order, our planning really works in the reverse order: we figure out what we need to learn and then work backwards to see what product will work as an experiment to get that learning. Thus, it is not the customer, but rather our hypothesis about the customer, that pulls work from product development and other functions. Any other work is waste. (Page 201)
The Five Whys of just-in-time manufacturing (something I've put into practice right away in my own work):
The Five Whys ties the rate of progress to learning, not just execution. Startup teams should go through the Five Whys whenever they encounter any kind of failure, including technical faults, failures to achieve business results, or unexpected changes in customer behavior. Five Whys is a powerful organizational technique. Some of the engineers I have trained to use it believe that you can derive all the other Lean Startup techniques from the Five Whys. Coupled with working in small batches, it provides the foundation a company needs to respond quickly to problems as they appear, (page 233)
On "vanity metrics" and the traditional ways of getting support/funding from upper management:
There are no objective criteria by which a team can gauge whether it will win this coveted lottery. Teams have little confidence that they will receive any long-term ownership of their innovations. Thus, teams rarely are motivated to take real risks, instead focusing their energies on projects that are expected to win the approval of senior management …. : the use of vanity metrics instead of actionable metrics, an overly long cycle time, the use of large batch sizes, an unclear growth hypothesis, a weak experimental design, a lack of team ownership, and therefore very little learning. (Page 256-257)
On how to do "Lean Startup" even within a very large, established organization:
With an internal startup team, the sequence of accountability is the same: build an ideal model of the desired disruption that is based on customer archetypes, launch a minimum viable product to establish a baseline, and then attempt to tune the engine to get it closer to the ideal. Operating in this framework, internal teams essentially act as startups. As they demonstrate success, they need to become integrated into the company's overall portfolio of products and services. (Page 264)
When products move from phase to phase, they are handed off between teams. Employees can choose to move with the product as part of the handoff or stay behind and begin work on something new. Neither choice is necessarily right or wrong; it depends on the temperament and skills of the person in question. (page 266)
On iterating quickly, with small, evidence-based improvements each time:
"…teams are almost guaranteed to improve as long as they get the constant feedback of small-batch development and actionable metrics and are held accountable to learning milestones. (page 268)

Topic: Transplants, Wildflowers
Title: How to Propagate Mexican Bush Sage in Marble Falls, Texas
Answered by: Marilyn Kircus
I need advice on when, how to separate Mexican bush sage. Ours is happy and HUGE but is now sprouting from the roots at the base. Since we've been so successful with this plant, we want to divide it and use it elsewhere.ANSWER:
I've just been collecting sages from my garden for a friend and I had some that were making new sprouts at the base also. I just took my shovel and carefully cut between the parent plant and the shoot, then put the shoot in a pot filled with potting mix and watered it well. I trimmed long shoots back by about a third and left the little babies with short shoots and lots of roots alone. I kept them in shade for about a week, then transplanted them.
You can move them to a prepared new place immediately but provide them with shade. Just setting a pot upside down over them will work if you prop it so air can come in. A piece of shade cloth can be used by putting in a few stakes. I like to use an organic liquid fertilizer in dilute amounts to help with the transplanting shock. I was seeing new growth about a week after I planted them. I prefer to divide the roots of plants in the spring, because it seems they are much more determined to grow then and the temperatures and humidity seem to stress them less than doing it later in the year. And as plants get ready to go dormant, they don't respond as vigorously to dividing and you are more likely to lose some of the divisions.
I also took cuttings of several of my salvias and they are currently starting to root. We are almost at the end of the season for summer cuttings and my research shows that they probably won't be suitable for winter cuttings. But you can try following the instructions in the link below. I think you don't have to worry about the directions being for a different species. All the salvias behave pretty much the same. Go ahead and take several cuttings and try them. If you haven't pruned your plant back for the fall gowth, do it now, then make some of the prunings into cuttings. Just try to get the cuttings in the rooting medium as soon as possible after you cut them. The longer they sit out, the fewer of them will sprout.
Note: If you don't have rooting hormone, you can find it at most nurseries.
So try a few cuttings now, and take a few babies by root cuttings. Then leave the rest for next spring and summer. Usually you can start makng cuttings in late June and continue until September. If they don't work one time, it may mean that the stems aren't mature enough to make more a few weeks later. Also you can take a long stem and cut it into several pieces and try rooting each piece. The woody parts from near the base may be too old, the tips too young and the middle ones just right. Just remember which end was originally the bottom and have at least one set of leaves on each cutting. You can cut off part of the leaves to help reduce the stress on the plant. I usually use a dishpan with a mix of sphagnum and perlite and then put the dishpan into a white plastic garbage bag and pull the strings closed. Then keep them in deep shade until after you see signs of growth. Check daily to see if they need water. After you remove the bag, gradually increase the amount of light they get until you have them back in several hours of sun a day. Lightly tug them to judge root development. But lots of new growth also says they are ready to move up to a pot and grow big enough to plant in the landscape.

This was amazing! That is all that I can say! Congradulations on finding such a good passover recipie! I think that I will use this even after passover!
Great recipe and always a hit! Put in chocolate chips and walnuts.
made these for last nights seder and they were awesome!! would not change a thing - great just the way they are.
For a passover brownie recipe, this was really exceptional. People were remarking how incredibly moist these were, and adding the chocolate chips in was a real surprise plus to them. Definitely on the menu for next year's seder!
I have made theses brownies for several years now and they are ALWAYS a hit; very easy to make.
This are really good. My Jewish relatives loved them and were shocked that they were kosher for passover. I think I added a little too much salt, and I could taste it, but no one else seemed to notice. I'll just be extra careful when measuring the next time!

Felicia Day was one of the biggest gamer stars at this year's Comic-Con -- she premiered the trailer for her Syfy movie Red, sat on a panel about "Girls Gone Geek" and made two announcements to the packed room during The Guild panel on Saturday afternoon: First, the gang has put together its second music video, dubbed "Game On" (which you can watch online or on Xbox Live); and second, Microsoft (which posts The Guild videos in HD on Xbox Live every Tuesday) will be releasing Guild-related Avatar skins this fall, so you can dress up your Xbox Live Avatar as your favorite Guild member.
In between her busy schedule of panels and signings, I caught up with Day to chat about what she's been playing, the new music video and about whether or not The Guild webseries, currently in its fourth season, has outgrown its gamer roots. Find our conversation posted after the break.
[Image credit: YGX]
My first question was going to be: "When are you gonna make another music video?" But then that just happened.
I know! Did you see it? Bollywood-themed!
Yeah, it was pretty awesome.
It was really hard. I didn't want to do another music video. When you do something like that, everybody's asking, "How are you going to top that," and it makes you, creatively, kind of crunch. But thank goodness I have Sandeep Parikh who plays Zaboo, and had the idea of the Bollywood theme; and Kim Evey and Sean Becker, who co-directed it; and Greg Aronowitz, who did production design. So many people pitched in, and made something that we could never have afforded in a normal situation and pulled off.
You guys really hit it out of the park. Where'd that "elephant" come from?
The "elephant" came from Greg Aronowitz's back yard. For real -- he had an elephant in his back yard. He's a production designer, he's done huge movies, he's done small movies, he's done his own movies, and he just has the craziest stuff in his yard. There was a man inside that elephant that was making the ears go. But a lot of people still think it's real -- it's awesome.
It was well done. My second question was going to be: "When is Microsoft gonna hook you guys up with some Xbox Live Avatar stuff?" But then that was announced at the panel, too.
Yeah, I pitched it out at the last minute -- there are going to be Avatar skins for the Xbox Marketplace this fall, hopefully in a couple of months. I'm not exactly sure of the release date, but hopefully before the end of the year.
Are they just shirts, or what are they?
They're hopefully going to be the Avatar outfits. So if you've seen "Date My Avatar," the avatar clothing that we use -- and on our character cartoons that open the show -- those are going to be the items. So I'm excited about it. I am going to be a dork and get my own outfit.
That's great. Considering how well the deal with Microsoft has gone, I'm surprised it took this long.
It's amazing, they're just so supportive. They don't interfere creatively at all, Sprint has come on board and really stepped forward. They just signed off on the music video idea instantly, even without a lot of specific details. They really trust what we do, and I take that trust seriously. You wouldn't think Microsoft would be so awesome -- it's a big corporation, but they're so responsive to our needs. It's a dream come true.
So, about The Guild: When it started out, it was all about MMO players -- people would say, "I see my friends in this!" Now it's evolved to the point where the characters have really grown into themselves. Do you feel like you still have to use the MMO references?
I have to. I never want the gamers to feel like they've been portrayed. I always want it to be something that you can't find other places. The goal was never to make it "The Big Bang Theory" or something mainstream, because this is a humor I know. So if I just make it generic, it'll lose its special quality. That's their connection: the game.
Speaking of "the game," what have you been playing lately?
I just finished Mass Effect 2 -- I have to reload that, because I made some wrong decisions. Dragon Age I just finished. I have a beta key for Cataclysm, but I'm waiting, because I want to really experience it when it comes out.
Did you see Dragon Age 2 here at the con?
Yeah, I love it. No more blood splatters! Better hair. I love it ... And Split/Second, I've been playing a lot, for some reason.
Joystiq likes that one, too.
It's really fun! I'm sorry, it's just awesome.

South Korea police confirm body is fugitive ferry owner
Published on Jul 22, 2014 8:43 AM
SEOUL (AFP) - South Korean police said Tuesday they had found the body of fugitive business tycoon Yoo Byung-Eun, the target of a months-long manhunt connected to April's Sewol ferry disaster that claimed around 300 lives.
The heavily decomposed corpse of the 73-year-old Yoo was discovered on June 12 lying on the ground in a plum orchard in Suncheon, a city 300km south of Seoul.
Suncheon police chief Woo Hyung-Ho told reporters that the body was too decomposed to ascertain the cause of death, although several empty bottles of alcohol were found at the scene.
"We do not know yet whether it was a homicide or a suicide," Woo said.

Yikes! My daughter & I regularly visit the Toronto Zoo. On a quiet day, with few other visitors in the area, a Cheetah took a liking to my daughter; she was running back & forth along the heavy glass partition & the cheetah followed her intensely, essentially doing the same pawing at the glass. I was scared sh!tless & we high-tailed it out of there!
Same thing happened to her with the cougars, but they are enclosed in what looks to be a fairly shoddy outdoor enclosure. Gotta say, it was scary, not at all funny!
It's prolly inch thick safety glass. You think the zoo wouldn't have thought of these ginormous meat-eating predators busting through the glass when they were designing the place?
It's not like the baby is in a seal costume and being dangled over a shark tank while the mother laughs maniacally.
ReplyCancelLook at the muscles in that cat. Dang!
I love the minimal differences in behaviour between big and small cats. My old kitty (RIP) would do that exact thing to be let in or out of the balcony. After the screen ripped, she knew she could use the rip to get out onto the balcony but she never understood that she could get in from the balcony. She wasn't a smart kitty.
ReplyCancelThis type of video makes me sad too. Not being teased? Be trapped in a prison for the rest of your life. You'd have different opinions then, one would assume. It's absolutely teasing, and it's very sad. If the glass should have failed at any second, that lion would be dead.
ReplyCancelThat lion seemed almost playful behind the glass,more curious than starving. I have no doubt in my mind that if there weren't a glass wall curiousity would have not only killed the big cat. Why tempt fate like that mommy and daddy?
People are dumb though. A really stupid and mean prank for both lion and their baby.
ReplyCancelI don't think it was confusing this baby with a baby zebra, since other predator cats show the same behavior to toddlers when they are within range at these safety glass enclosures. They are opportunistic hunters & there's always room for jello..
It does creep me out that these parents have a little too much faith in the safety /plexiglass. Really creeps me out!

There are plenty of other deals out there for just as good of chevy truck for less money. If you need to sell it, drop the price, if not, leave it but add a little more incentive, clean it up a bit more and be patient Edit: And throw out a little more info, gears, any work that's been done, new parts etc |

Complicated The desk is of good quality and looks nice when it is finally together. The desk top it self is a little narrow and I prefer a bigger work space. Drawers are not that deep. Lots of shelf space. It took us two days to get it all together. It had over 75 pieces and several of the smaller pieces were missing. Overstock was great and got these right to us.

Don't buy this! Buy this only if you want to assemble for most of the day, have many damaged parts and end up with a very average 'desk'.i have one positive comment, I LOVED the video that demonstrated the cam locks. By the time this arrived over-stuffed into a shredded box due to the sheer weight, I felt like the return would be impossible. My bad.

Great Desk We bought this for a desk for my son's room. I was really shocked at the great quality of this desk compared to other websites in the same price range. We just moved to a new house and the desk made it safely w/o damage. Directions were easy to follow and took my son and I about 2 hours to put together. Great desk!

Damaged, cheap material Several pieces were dented or chipped. Missing a pack of cam bolts. Cheap pressed board, which wasn't a surprise considering the price, but I didn't expect it to splint during assembly. Definitely a product for short term use, but if you want a piece to keep and hold up to any kind of regular use, save yourself the effort.

Easy build and lots of storage easy build, but if doing it alone it will take you a few hours to do....fast delivery.....the only negative thing that I have to say is that I find that the wood scratches easily.....however, the piece is very nice and provides ample storage room for office supplies....

Nice Desk.... Ameriwood Replacements NOT Overstock delivered very quickly ~ as always! Upon inspection, I found the top of the desk to be cracked. I ordered a replacement from Ameriwood. Unfortunately, it will take over two weeks for this order to be processed and shipped. This desk should never have passed quality control. The crack was NOT a shipping mishap! I have assembled as far as I can so that when the top arrives (not until after the new year) it will be ready. When assembling the drawers, the side wood cracked on both sides when putting the glides in place. What a waste.... this was part of my daughter's Christmas! :(

Mixed Feelings The reviews are true regarding the material of this desk. I did have pieces that was chipped, peeling and even dented. This desk would be so much better if this desk came in perfect condition. Considering how much packing material that was in the box, its amazing how much was damaged. I would recommend this desk to a friend if they don't mind the damaged up pieces. I don't mind the damaged pieces considering how I got this for a good price than what was listed. I DO recommend building this desk with 2 people. I did this by myself and it took me 6 hours ( no breaks) The next 2 days I was super sore...Legs, back, shoulder blade, the palms of my hands. It it very overwhelming at first. There is nothing pre-assembled for you. You get a bag of hardware and the desk comes in dozens of pieces. I think the worst part was that I had packing material everywhere and had to stop and clean again and vacuum the pieces itself! I did run out of the glue that came with the desk. So I used Elemer's glue. Hopefully this holds? We will see. The desk is quite roomy which I love. I like the color but wish it was just a little bit richer. The drawers are very shallow. Unlike the other reviews, I went slowly while building these as to not split the wood. Would I purchase this desk again? YES. Would I build it alone? NO but it can be done...even with the hutch. I did not do the last step with the brace. I think this desk is heavy enough that it doesn't need attached to the wall, however if you have small children you may want to do this step. I suggest reading the directions all the way through first then go back and build it. Because the directions was sometimes not to clear to me, I have a piece on backwards but I was still able to assemble the desk. Also I think some steps can be combined and some steps are out of order. But I was the designer of the desk. I'm not to fond of the plush board where you can tack things up. It cheapens the desk. I would have been more appreciative it was just a high grade cork board. I do worry about taking it off since there are four strong adhesive strips holding this up. Overall, if you don't mind small damages here and there, I would get this desk. It is spacious and elegant looking.

Great desk, with minor issues Overall it is a great desk. Measurements are correct, but the product could use more images on the site though. The only issue with this desk is that when building the pull out drawers it is almost inevitable that you split the wood. The assembly can be done by one person but it is highly recommended that its a two person job. The hutch can be a little difficult to build with only one person. Also, since the hutch is its own piece, it can be built separately cutting down the total time of assembly.

Plus, dust can make your computer screen permanently cloudy if it isn't dusted off frequently. Not to mention you don't want to present visitors to your office with a dirty secretary desk or executive desk. Instead of waiting for your computer's performance or your co-workers opinion of your hygiene to suffer, get in the routine of cleaning your office desk. Here are some tips on how to go about it.
