Senators want to turn up heat on InfoCision, other charity telemarketers
Blog Entry:
December 04, 2012 9:53 AM | Author: SCOTT SUTTELL
that three U.S. senators want the Federal Trade Commission to investigate the connection between major national charities and telemarketers — including
InfoCision Management Corp.
of Akron — for possibly abusing tax-exempt status or breaking the law.
"I am writing to ask that the FTC investigate reports that telemarketers acting on behalf of well-respected charities are deploying deceptive tactics to induce individuals to donate money that is kept mostly, and sometimes entirely, by the telemarketer," Sen. Richard Blumenthal, a Connecticut Democrat, wrote to the FTC on Nov. 30. "These practices are unethical and in some circumstances may be illegal."
Sen. Charles Grassley, an Iowa Republican, says Congress and the Internal Revenue Service "should consider writing stricter rules to prevent highly profitable nonprofits from avoiding taxes," Bloomberg reports. Sen. Herbert Kohl, a Wisconsin Democratic, says the U.S. Department of Justice and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau should probe possible nonprofit abuse.
In September,
Bloomberg Markets
that InfoCision, a large charity telemarketer, raised money for the American Cancer Society, the American Diabetes Association and other national charities "while falsely telling potential contributors that 70% of the money raised went to the charities," even though the actual percentage is far less.
The Cancer Society and Diabetes Association approved the scripts for InfoCision, Bloomberg Markets reported.
Sen. Kohl tells Bloomberg, "This particular scheme is one that needs to be looked at closely by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Federal Trade Commission and Department of Justice to make sure it can't happen again."
FTC spokesman Frank Dorman declined to comment to Bloomberg. Greg Donaldson, national vice president for corporate communications for the Cancer Society, tells the news service, "We welcome the chance to clarify the facts and will cooperate fully."
InfoCision's chief of staff, Steve Brubaker, tells Bloomberg that the company has been a dependable partner to some of America's best charities for decades and takes its obligations to them and to potential donors seriously.
"Our legal counsel has asked us not to comment on the merits of these claims other than to say we vigorously dispute these allegations and will respond accordingly in the proper judicial forum," he says.
At the time of the original
Bloomberg Markets
story, Mr. Brubaker offered a five-paragraph response to the allegations. You can find that statement
This and that
Heart to heart:
Former Vice President Dick Cheney is
writing a book
about his battles with heart disease — an idea he hatched in Cleveland.
The Associated Press says the 71-year-old Mr. Cheney is collaborating with his cardiologist, Dr. Jonathan Reiner, and with his daughter, Liz Cheney. The book is scheduled for next fall.
Mr. Cheney, who received a heart transplant in March, tells the AP that the idea for the book came from Dr. Reiner after they appeared together at the Cleveland Clinic for a conference on heart treatment. As the former VP explained, the Clinic wanted him to speak because in his case "They've done everything they can to a patient."
Detroit Rock city:
Cavaliers owner/Quicken Loans founder Dan Gilbert
has expanded
his downtown Detroit real estate portfolio with the purchase of the 333,000-square-foot One Woodward Building.
Crain's Detroit Business
reports that Mr. Gilbert's Rock Ventures LLC announced the purchase of the building, confirming previous rumors that the former home of the Michigan Consolidated Gas Co. was under contract to be sold to the company. A real estate source familiar with the deal said the purchase price was $8.5 million,
Crain's Detroit
It's the 10th building Rock Ventures has purchased since the beginning of 2011.
Crain's Detroit says Mr. Gilbert "stands as the second-largest private owner of downtown real estate, behind General Motors Co." Rock Ventures' downtown Detroit portfolio features 2.5 million square feet of office space.
The unprofitable $9 beer:
takes a look
at what apparently has become a complicated part of the sports business world: selling beer at stadiums.
From the story:
Once upon a time, a local beer distributor could hook up with a stadium concessionaire like Aramark or Levy and get his brand added to the mix. No more. You want your suds poured at the ballpark? You need to be a sponsor. The competition can be fierce — unlike staples like hot dogs or soda, where clubs tend to make a deal with a single brand, beer isn't exclusive. … Sports sales executives, under big pressure these days to bring in added sponsorship dollars, face the challenge of convincing beer and spirits distributors that a full-blown sponsorship is worthwhile.
At the baseball Winter Meetings in Nashville, one of the speakers was beer industry veteran Matt Borgard, director of venue sales for Crown Imports, the importer of Corona.
"Pushing his brand into Cleveland's Progressive Field or Atlanta's Georgia Dome means setting up portable Corona 'Beaches' around the venue, a tie-in to the company's 'Find Your Beach' ad campaign," Forbes.com reports. "The exposure is vital, because few beer brands sell enough at games and concerts to turn a profit, even with the high markups on the prices. Distributors aren't that impressed with your annual attendance numbers — they know that a lot of those people aren't drinkers."

Turkey and Zucchini Green Chili
With the weather starting to get cooler I have been thinking about soups and stews a lot more. Even with the cooler weather, the markets still have a lot of late summers produce and I figured that it was the perfect time to enjoy some of those vegetables in a warm and hearty stew. I remembered seeing some tomatillos the week before and I was immediately thinking about a salsa verde and a green chili. A green chili, or a chili verde, is a chili that uses tomatillos and green chilis such as poblano and jalapeno chilies instead of tomatoes and red chilies. I tend to associate turkey with fall and it had been a very long time since I had used any so it was the natural meat for the chili. With the base of the chili done, I packed in more vegetables in the form of some zucchini and corn and I bulked everything up with some white beans. Despite the fact that the salsa verde was already bringing a lot of flavour to the table, I could not resist adding even more with a heaping tablespoon of cumin along with some oregano. This ended up being one really tasty chili that was also nice and tasty and it really hit the spot on a cool day!
Turkey and Zucchini Green Chili(makes 4+ servings)
Printable Recipe
1 pound ground turkey
1 tablespoon oil
1 onion (diced)
4 cloves garlic (chopped)
1 tablespoon cumin (toasted and ground)
3 cups chicken stock
2 cups salsa verde
1 (19 ounce) can white beans (rinsed and drained)
1 teaspoon oregano
2 jalapeno peppers (or to taste, diced)
salt and pepper to taste
1 pound zucchini (cut into bite sized pieces)
1 cup corn
1 handful cilantro (chopped)
1. Cook the turkey in a large pan over medium heat, breaking it apart as you go and set aside.
2. Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat, add the onion and saute until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Add the garlic and cumin and saute until fragrant, about a minute.
4. Add the stock, salsa verde, beans, oregano, peppers, salt and pepper and simmer for 20 minutes.
5. Add the zucchini and corn and simmer until the zucchini is tender, about 10 minutes.
6. Remove from heat and mix in the cilantro.
Slow Cooker: Implement step 1, optionally implement steps 2 & 3, place everything except the zucchini, corn and cilantro in the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-10 hours or high for 2-4 hours before adding the zucchini and corn and cooking for 10 more minutes on high, mixing in the cilantro and turning off the heat.

This highly pack-able, Primaloft® insulated pant, protects your legs from the harsh cold of high-elevation peaks and frigid all-day treestand sits. Full side zips ventilate and make for quick on and off flexibility.
This pant is engineered to keep your lower half cozy in brutally low temperatures, and can be a crucial late-season piece in any Big Game, Whitetail, or Waterfowl System. On stationary hunts, it's best used as a midlayer. On spot-and-stalk hunts, when you stop to eat or glass, the pant zips on over your outer layer for added warmth until you move again.
The high heat-to-weight ratio of Primaloft® Sport insulation (weight 170 g/m2) keeps your body's core temperature up. Excellent compressibility means the pant packs down small, and articulated patterning eliminates bulk and restriction. Full side zips ventilate to prevent overheating and make for quick on and off as the conditions change.
The fine Primaloft® fibers found in the Kelvin Pant form tiny air pockets that trap body heat. Tight surface tension among the fibers resists moisture penetration, so it dries much faster than goose down. And even when wet, the Kelvin Pant is a highly effective insulator, keeping you warm and focused in critical situations.
"The Kelvin Pants are the only way I've found to combat tons of glassing in brutally cold weather, like a November sheep hunt in Alberta. You can layer your upper body, but if your whole body doesn't stay warm, you've got to move on. Being able to force yourself to hang tight until you can pick apart the whole mountain can make the difference between seeing a ram stand from his bed or as he steps out from cover and completely missing him. I'll use the full side zips to throw on overtop of whatever pants I'm wearing and instantly gain the ability to be behind for the glass for hours. They're not needed for every single hunting application, but for any mountain hunts with periods of inactivity from mid-October on, they're a godsend."
- Sitka Athlete Adam Foss
As I stated in my review of the jacket, this product is well worth the investment. As a member of Special Operations in the United States military I put these pants through some of the environments my work has placed me in and they have performed flawlessly. These are so stinking warm!! Well done again Sitka...you constantly keep up with your reputation of having some of the best gear around.
I had been looking for a worthy cold-weather pant to replace some lesser bibs that didn't live up to my quality expectations. The Kelvin Pant seemed to fit the bill and I ordered them at full retail from Amazon, even though I have access to products as a Gore tester. I was 100% satisfied with my purchase. These super-warm, easy-on, well-made PrimaLoft pants fit nicely into my pack for the hike into my hunting spot, then I slide them on to keep off the chill as I glass and wait for old Mossyhorns to make his appearance. The side zippers help with ventilation, if needed. You will not be disappointed with these warm, quality pants.
Pure warmth. Get cold easily while sitting still in your tree for long periods of time? These pants are an insulation layer that are designed to be warn underneath one of the soft, brushed face outer layers to create a wall of heat to keep your lower half from getting cold and sending you packing it in! With an elastic cuff at the ankles and a slick synthetic face, you don't have to worry about them bunching up while pulling your pants or bibs on over them. I am a gear tester for GORE and this layer is filled with PrimaLoft insulation which is extremely lightweight and super packable so it can be brought to the stand with you and put on later.

Kingory Full Review
By Ange Perdu
Kingory is an international version of the popular strategy game known as RXSG. Although, less known as games like Evony and Empire Craft Kingory sets the bar high. This free browser based real time strategy MMO combines elements of turn based play with PvP and PvE for a unique gaming experience. Players enter a virtual medieval China to establish a city and army capable of total domination. Complete quests, strategize attacks, and rule in Kingory.
Building Your Empire – The Gameplay
The gameplay in Kingory is challenging. Players start out with a small village and limited resources. They have to construct buildings to increase their population, resources, and army. Each construction requires a specific amount of time and supplies. Kingory has a very easy to maneuver interface which is beneficial for players unfamiliar with playing this type of genre. There are plenty of quests to complete. Some quests include trading, building up homelands, recruiting heroes, upgrading building, conquering the wilderness, scouting cities, increasing production, and setting up traps. Players are also in control of the government and military. Improving influence, population, and expanding the troops are essential while growing an empire. Special items accelerate and advance users during the game. Every day the wheel of fortune feature allows players' one free spin rewarding them whatever the wheel stops on. Acquiring gold, food, lumber, stone, and iron aids in the construction of the city. Entering the map gives players a view of surrounding cities that they can conquer depending on their current level and troops required. The ability to customize military leaders, go on endless amounts of quests, and strategize PvP attacks makes Kingory an engaging RTS game.
Read My Lips: No New Taxes
Running the government in Kingory can get hectic. Players must use their skills to increase the city's incoming gold, resources production, and population allegiance. All of these factors play a key role in your overall influence. The allegiance of the people changes constantly depending on the actions taken. Periodically players must appease criticism in order to keep the fellow citizens content. Appease options include disaster relieve, prayer service, ancestral sacrifice, or reproduction boost which increases the population. To earn extra gold taxes from the villagers are taken. Adjusting the tax rate must be done with caution. Adding higher tax rates reduces allegiance. Upgrading the government allows the city to conquer more territories. A city is vulnerable for attack when the government reaches level 5.
Heroes Vs. Yellow Turbans
One of the features that sets Kingory apart from the average strategy based game is their hero recruitment. The success of troops is not solely relied upon tactics but in the skills of the hero leading as well. This makes the game more challenging and adds a lot of room for customization of selected heroes. Players can recruit heroes inside the tavern area. The experience levels vary with each random character. There are over 900 of them to choose from. Upgrading the tavern will increase the amount of heroes a player can recruit and use in missions. There are a variety of weapons, armor, and special items that will customize each hero. Some of them include magical cloaks, sage wands, pioneer halberds, Ching Jou Spears, gauntlets, and guards. Before sending troops into battle one hero must be assigned to lead. Various stratagems can be used to boost hero intelligence and administer different war tactics during a siege. Rival military forces consist of the Tsao Tsao, Yuan Shao, and the troublesome Yellow Turbans. During quests to conquer foreign wilderness or to stop bandits from stealing treasure players will encounter these troops.
Advance War Tactics
Every element of the game incorporates strategy to gain an advantage during battles. Being victorious requires advancing the proper war tactics and creating the most equipped armies possible. The college plays a major role in developing troops. All of the research in technology is conducted there. In order to improve their military players have to upgrade the college and perform research in areas that will most benefit the advancement of troops. The limitation of strategizing attacks rests heavily on which levels of technology a player has chosen to advance. Research is similar to building and requires an allotted amount of resources. They control the speed of production or strength in different areas including the city's security and troops' ranged attacks. Kingory also allows users to purchase enemy captives in their in-game item mall for inside information during war.
The Ultimate Medieval Mall
The customization and massive in-game item mall really adds to the overall appeal of Kingory. Even Evony can't compare to Kingory's large mall with over 150 special items. It's a medieval shopper's dream. Blue diamonds and vouchers serve as credits which can be purchased using PayPal or won by completing specific quests. They literally have everything you could possibly imagine to speed up gameplay and conquer neighboring territories. An assortment of mystical deities and reapers are available to dramatically increase the production of essential resources. Corvee orders allow the construction of multiple buildings. Lu Ban Leaflets speeds up the total construction time of any structure. Mohism Leaflets reduces time consuming research by an hour. For a medieval strategy based game the mall is quite impressive. Warrior gift sets, magical jewelry, caravans, powerful horses, homing pigeons, immunity, potions, elixirs, armor, weapons, drums, ancient tablets, blueprints, permits, sacred scrolls, and amulets for multiple areas of government can be found.
Players in Kingory can also purchase goods at the market. There valuable resources such as food, lumber, stone, and iron can be exchanged for gold. A feature also lets users sell their resources or buy another player's resources for a bargain. The market doesn't have any of the cool special items in the mall for sell but it's a good tool to aid in keeping up production during the growth process.
Final Verdict: Good
Kingory is a worthy browser based medieval real-time strategy game. It has great potential. The clean user-friendly interface and helpful gaming community makes it a great game for players new to this type of genre. The gameplay is somewhat unique with quests, PvP, and arena battles for advanced players. Although, the game can be slow at times there's plenty of active users to chat with. Their large item mall has a variety of tools to speed up gameplay and mix up strategies. If you're a fan of games like Evony, Empire Craft, or The Seventh Dragon Kingory is definitely worth trying out.

Peanut Butter, Banana and Honey Crepes
I recently came across the concept of a peanut butter, banana and honey sandwich which sounded really good. I really like peanut butter, bananas and honey and they can only get better by combining them in a sandwich! The combo reminded me about another one of my favorite sandwiches, a nutella and banana sandwich. It was breakfast time and I was thinking that wrapping everything up in a warm, light and fluffy crepe would be perfect. I whipped up a batch of crepes and spread on some peanut butter, added the banana slices and poured on some honey. I guess I could have waited for the crepe to cool a bit as it was so warm that it melted the peanut butter. Oh well, the melted peanut butter was nice and creamy and with the honey mixed in and the bananas and the warm crepe...mmm... I could not stop at just one and the second one had cooled down enough that the peanut butter did not melt. It left me with that familiar experience of peanut butter stuck to the top of your mouth. I wish that I had known about this amazing combination years ago. I will have to have it often to make up for lost time.

What's license?
Phoronix: Raspberry Pi Gets Fully Open-Source Graphics Stack
The popular budget-friendly Raspberry Pi ARM development board now has a fully open-source graphics stack -- the user-space graphics drivers for the Broadcom VideoCore included!..
What's license?
This doesn't seem to include the h264 (and others) decoder does it? I quickly greped through the sources and only found references to h264 in header files and structures. I doubt it contains code to access the hardware de-/encoders. Does anyone have a deeper insight into this?
Excellent. Broadcom sure has come a long way since their "we have binary-only linux drivers for our clients, but end-users are not our clients so f### off" stance years ago.
Last edited by [Knuckles]; 10-24-2012 at 08:51 AM. Reason: typo
In the comments section of the original announcement someone assumed that parts of the codec stuff are contained in the non-open bootloader, ensuring that noone can bypass the licensing fees.
The parts published by Broadcom are very welcome indeed, because you can now have a fullly open source userland. It is not a full driver though: It's only a thin wrapper that forwards the client APIs more or less verbatim to the VideoCore IV by some means of remote procedure call. The actual drivers are all running on the VideoCore itself and are contained in the blob.
This setup destroys some of Michael's high hopes:
Would be possible indeed, but would not make much sense: The stack would be "OpenGL -> Gallium3D -> OpenGL(ish) RPC", so there's no need for Gallium3D to be in the equation at all.Their user-space bits unfortunately aren't based around the Mesa/Gallium3D architecture, although it's possible they could now be ported to such a driver
That would be cool if it was true. But while the blobs in the Radeon and GeForce GPUs indeed just make a small (more or less) auxiliary microcontroller work, this blob here contains the actual driver, so there's no real way to get rid of it.The only bit that's not opened up is the microcode/firmware, which still must be loaded at boot, but still that's nothing different than how the AMD Radeon driver functions along with some other GPUs.
Meh. This is only an RPC-shim. Not even worth a mention.
They did not release the driver, there is absolutely no driver code in what they released. It's just header and some egl/glx glue code. Things that have been public for ages.

She may not get what's wrong with sending texts in the middle of your conversation, but she needs to be told how it makes you feel
Alexandra and her mother were having a conversation.
"So, Alexandra, then I told your aunt that maybe we would be able to come and visit some time in July and she …"
"Dada dada. Dada dada," came the first eight notes of Alexandra's ring tone.
Alexandra immediately picked up her phone and read the message that had just been texted by her friend Danielle. Alexandra then texted a response to Danielle.
"Alexandra, I was talking to you," her mother said.
"I was talking to you."
"Dada dada. Dada dada," went Alexandra's phone again as Danielle texted her reply to Alexandra. Alexandra read it and texted a return message to her friend.
"ALEXANDRA! I was talking to you. That is so impolite."
If anything, it has become more so. As teens have increasingly shifted to texting rather than phone conversations – which they still do as well – the sheer quantity of incoming and outgoing messages can seem staggering. A few hundred a day is not unusual. According to a U.S. study by The Nielsen Company released last year, the average American teen sends nearly 80 texts a day.

That paper examines the performance of various ipc methods for a specific transaction (querying a sqlite db). The methods tested were dbus, dbus with fd passing (what he calls the hybrid approach), a custom ipc socket based approach, and direct sqlite access. As expected direct access was fastest but only by about 20% over dbus with fd and the custom unix socket. So, that doesn't seem too bad.
Seems rather outdated, though (tests were done on Slackware 10.2, released in 2005), so D-Bus had a lot of time to improve since then.
I got quite fast, indeed! File descriptor passing was implemented in 2009 by Lennart Poettering, so that paper I read is obsolete, thankfully.http://blogs.gnome.org/abustany/2010...of-the-report/

Thanks for the link, but, as you say, a lot has changed since then.
Honestly I don't know why dbus gets the bad rap. Sure, I wish the commandline tool handled some sort of introspection so I could more easily examine the messages, but this can be done, in principle, and, more importantly, it provides well defined interfaces and is pretty performant.
It's existence has so led many apps that do not need it to use it, just because it's the official fd.o alternative. Which brings the downside of having to run the unnecessary daemon to users.
It's security and other issues like performance do not concern me; its primary downside to me is the requirement on a daemon. I'm sure others have other reasons to dislike it.
I fail twice with its vs it's, good indication that it's a morning
And I am not sure what you mean by "back then", Gnome still doesn't collaborate beyond telling everyone else to do things their way.
How does D-Bus differ from CORBA?
Start by reading Q: 9.
CORBA is designed to support object-oriented IPC between objects, automatically marshalling parameters as necessary. CORBA is strongly supported by the Open Management Group (OMG), which produces various standards and supporting documents for CORBA and has the backing of many large organizations. There are many CORBA ORBs available, both proprietary ORBs and free / open source software ORBs (the latter include ORBit, MICO, and The ACE Orb (TAO)). Many organizations continue to use CORBA ORBs for various kinds of IPC.
Both GNOME and KDE have used CORBA and then moved away from it. KDE had more success with a system called DCOP, and GNOME layered a system called Bonobo on top of CORBA. Without custom extensions, CORBA does not support many of the things one wants to do in a desktop environment with the GNOME/KDE architecture.
CORBA on the other hand has a number of features of interest for enterprise and web application development, though XML systems such as SOAP are the latest fad.
Like D-Bus, CORBA uses a fast binary protocol (IIOP). Both systems work in terms of objects and methods, and have concepts such as "oneway" calls. Only D-Bus has direct support for "signals" as in GLib/Qt (or Java listeners, or C# delegates).
D-Bus hardcodes and specifies a lot of things that CORBA leaves open-ended, because CORBA is more generic and D-Bus has two specific use-cases in mind. This makes D-Bus a bit simpler.
However, unlike CORBA D-Bus does not specify the API for the language bindings. Instead, "native" bindings adapted specifically to the conventions of a framework such as QObject, GObject, C#, Java, Python, etc. are encouraged. The libdbus reference implementation is designed to be a backend for bindings of this nature, rather than to be used directly. The rationale is that an IPC system API should not "leak" all over a program; it should come into play only just before data goes over the wire. As an aside, OMG is apparently working on a simpler C++ binding for CORBA.
Many CORBA implementations such as ORBit are faster than the libdbus reference implementation. One reason is that D-Bus considers data from the other end of the connection to be untrusted and extensively validates it. But generally speaking other priorities were placed ahead of raw speed in the libdbus implementation. A fast D-Bus implementation along the lines of ORBit should be possible, of course.
On a more trivial note, D-Bus involves substantially fewer acronyms than CORBA.
Sounds like dbus is more dcop than bonobo/ORBIT/Cobra16.
How does D-Bus differ from DCOP?
Start by reading Q: 9.
D-Bus is intentionally pretty similar to DCOP, and can be thought of as a "DCOP the next generation" suitable for sharing between the various open source desktop projects.
D-Bus is a bit more complex than DCOP, though the Qt binding for D-Bus should not be more complex for programmers. The additional complexity of D-Bus arises from its separation of object references vs. bus names vs. interfaces as distinct concepts, and its support for one-to-one connections in addition to connections over the bus. The libdbus reference implementation has a lot of API to support multiple bindings and main loops, and performs data validation and out-of-memory handling in order to support secure applications such as the systemwide bus.
D-Bus is probably somewhat slower than DCOP due to data validation and more "layers" in the reference implementation. A comparison hasn't been posted to the list though.
At this time, KDE has not committed to using D-Bus, but there have been discussions of KDE bridging D-Bus and DCOP, or even changing DCOP's implementation to use D-Bus internally (so that GNOME and KDE would end up using exactly the same bus). See the KDE mailing list archives for some of these discussions.

The possibilities of testosterone therapy are enticing — increase your muscle mass, sharpen your memory and concentration, boost your libido, and improve your energy level. As you get older, testosterone therapy may sound like the ultimate anti-aging formula. Yet the health benefits of testosterone therapy for age-related decline in testosterone aren't as clear as they may seem. Find out what's known — and not known — about testosterone therapy for normal aging.
Testosterone is a hormone produced primarily in the testicles. Testosterone helps maintain men's:
Hypogonadism is a disease in which the body is unable to produce normal amounts of testosterone due to a problem with the testicles or with the pituitary gland that controls the testicles. Testosterone replacement therapy can improve the signs and symptoms of low testosterone in these men. Doctors may prescribe testosterone as injections, pellets, patches or gels.
Testosterone peaks during adolescence and early adulthood. As you get older, your testosterone level gradually declines — typically about 1 percent a year after age 30. It is important to determine in older men if a low testosterone level is simply due to the decline of normal aging or if it is due to a disease (hypogonadism).
Not necessarily. Men can experience many signs and symptoms as they age. Some may occur as a result of lower testosterone levels and can include:
It's important to note that some of these signs and symptoms are a normal part of aging. Others can be caused by various underlying factors, including medication side effects, thyroid problems, depression and excessive alcohol use. A blood test is the only way to diagnose a low testosterone level.

When most of us think of caring for the family dog, we have in mind a sedate walk around the block once a day, maybe an obedience class when he's a pup, a good brushing once a week and lots of hanging out together watching TV at night. And then there is that special breed of dog — the high-energy, need-a-job-to-do, groom-challenging kind that comes in all looks and sizes, but shares one commonality: He is undeniably high-maintenance.
In alphabetical order, we present the 10 most high-maintenance dog breeds.
Anna Pozzi, Animal Photography
The smart and focused Australian Shepherd seems never to run out of energy. After he has brought in the morning newspaper, escorted the kids to the school bus, picked up their toys and dirty clothes from the floor and placed them in the appropriate receptacles, he's ready to help you do yard work by fetching tools or digging out weeds in your garden. Then he'll want you to throw a ball or flying disc for him to chase, practice for the weekend's agility or obedience trial, or take a brisk hour-long walk or hike. You'll wear out before he does unless you are equally active — and creative enough to keep him occupied.
Leesia Teh, Animal Photography
Cavaliers love to be in a lap and will claim yours in a flash as soon as you sit down. Aptly nicknamed the "Love Sponge," Cavaliers were bred to be companion dogs, and that's what they want to do. You'll never have privacy in the bathroom again if you live with a Cavalier. A Cavalier will dog your footsteps and make it clear that he does not wish to be left alone all day. The ideal home for this doe-eyed dog is one with a stay-at-home parent or work-at-home spouse, or with a retired couple.
Nick Ridley, Animal Photography
Often referred to as a canine Einstein, the Border Collie has a desire to work that borders on the obsessive. He will herd anything that comes his way — kids, cats, cars, even a bag of oranges that have spilled onto the floor. His intelligence and energy make him a fabulous competitor in dog sports, but if he is underemployed at home, he is likely to develop compulsive behaviors such as chasing light and shadows, twirling in circles, and bouncing up and down. Be prepared to keep him busy with dog sports, activities around the house, regular training sessions and plenty of daily exercise.
Tetsu Yamazaki, Animal Photography
With a Brussels Griffon, you're never alone. These affectionate dogs possess an unshakable desire to be with their favorite person at all times. When a Griff feels abandoned or lacking in attention, he will express his frustration by converting toilet paper into confetti, overturning trash receptacles and peeing on your favorite Oriental rug. Take him with you when you can and train him early on to accept necessary separation with equanimity — or face the consequences.
Sally Anne Thompson, Animal Photography
The people-adoring Cocker Spaniel dislikes being left alone; Cockers who aren't well socialized — and even some who are — can develop severe separation anxiety that takes the form of barking, whining and destructive behavior. In addition, his coat requires professional grooming or frequent care from a dedicated owner. The silky medium-length coat must be brushed several times a week and bathed and trimmed weekly. Even a Cocker with a short trim needs frequent brushing and bathing and trimming every couple of weeks. He is prone to ear infections, so weekly ear inspection and cleaning (if needed) are recommended. Many people rely on professional groomers every four to six weeks to keep their Cocker Spaniels looking the very best.
Few breeds are more demanding of their owner's energy and attention than the German Shorthaired Pointer. This talented hunting dog is energetic, strong and challenging. He's a natural in high-drive dog sports and a perfect companion (overall health permitting, of course) for long runs and strenuous hikes. German Shorthairs require daily sessions of heart-pumping exercise and plenty of training to keep them under control.
Barbara O'Brien, Animal Photography
He digs, he barks, he runs, he jumps. The Jack Russell (or Parson Russell if you live on the AKC side of the fence) is hardwired to be active and needs a full-time activity director to keep him busy in constructive, and not destructive, ways. He does best when he is kept busy hunting rats on a farm or competing in terrier races and earthdog tests. Jack Russells can even make great jogging partners, but some joint and neuromuscular problems can occur in the breed, so get a healthy go-ahead from your vet first.
People say they don't shed and they're hypoallergenic. That's the 411 that most people get about this glamorous and brainy breed. Spoiler alert: Poodles do shed—with loose hairs becoming entangled with other hair if not brushed out — and they are not hypoallergenic. But they are adorable! That beautiful curly coat can be very high maintenance if you are going for the best in show look but if you aren't, a visit to a professional groomer every six to eight weeks should do the trick. During adolescence, the maturing coat must be brushed daily to prevent mats.
It was probably a Lab who inspired the saying "A tired dog is a good dog." Plan to teach your Lab tricks, and get him involved in dog sports if you don't want to see just how much destruction he can do when he's bored. Some Labs even make great jogging partners, but hip dysplasia is prominent in the breed, so get him checked by your vet before hitting the running trails. Need a reminder as to why you need to provide structured activities for your Labrador from day one? We have one word: Marley.
The spunky Yorkshire Terrier has a lot going for him, but his beautiful coat is high-maintenance, even if clipped short. A Yorkie with a long coat requires daily brushing and weekly baths. A Yorkie with a short "puppy" clip also needs frequent brushing and bathing, along with regular visits to a professional groomer to have the coat trimmed. Yorkies don't shed much compared with some other dogs, but they aren't hypoallergenic.

A Canadian citizen who is no longer covered in Canada and who is not an Italian citizen would have to pay for healthcare in Italy. Foreigners living in Italy seem to be generally confused about the rights of Italian citizens around the world once they come back to Italy. They are not foreigners when they come back to Italy. They are Italians, just like Italians who never left Italy.

Earth Day
Gordon M. Grant for The New York Times
Nearly 20 million Americans attended the first Earth Day celebration on April 22, 1970, to this day among the most participatory political actions in the nation's history. In the decades since, Earth Day has spread across the globe with thousands of events in more than 180 countries.
In the beginning, the event influenced environmental politics, triggering such national legislation as the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act. "Earth Day is a commitment to make life better, not just bigger and faster," the organizers of the first celebration wrote in their manifesto. "It is a day to re-examine the ethic of individual progress at mankind's expense."
So strong was the antibusiness sentiment for the first Earth Day in 1970 that organizers took no money from corporations and held teach-ins "to challenge corporate and government leaders."
While the 40th anniversary of Earth Day was widely marked with events in April 2010, including a climate rally on the Mall in Washington, the movement does not appear to have the same kind of support it had four decades ago.
The day has turned into a premier marketing platform for selling a variety of goods and services, like office products, Greek yogurt and eco-dentistry. The environmental movement's tolerance of corporate America is an admission of its need to take money from corporations or at the least become partners with them if it is to change social behavior.
While the momentum for the first Earth Day came from the grass roots, many corporations say that it is often the business community that now leads the way in environmental innovation — and they want to get their customers interested. In an era when the population is more divided on the importance of environmental issues than it was four decades ago, the April event offers a rare window, they say, when customers are game to learn about the environmentally friendly changes the companies have made.
