A couple of years ago, I set out to revisit some of the designs from the extensive experience of my youth: I wanted to see what features and materials were still useful, and which were better off left in the past. Now that I've come back up for air, we can finally share with you the initial results.
Functionally modern, yet aesthetically grounded in our 40+ years of outdoor-equipment design, The Guide's Pack is a daypack for hiking and mountaineering; it will likely be as at home on city streets as on alpine trails.
It's a top-loading backpack that closes with a drawstring and top flap pocket. The drawstring runs through eight #00 spur grommets (made specially for us in the U.K.) and cinches tight with a cord lock. The top flap pocket fastens down with two 1" side-release buckles and nylon webbing straps; it's actually three pockets in one: the main pocket has two stealthy mesh pockets on its underside. One mesh pocket is sized for an iPhone, the other fits even larger GPS units, though of course you get to put whatever you want in there; the larger mesh pocket has an
The main compartment, as I said above, closes with a drawstring and cord lock: a foolproof closure, unlikely to ever fail. Inside this rather large main compartment goes extra clothing, more food, camera equipment. As you load it up, remember to keep the center of gravity low for off-trail scrambling and high for groomed trails, though for such a small pack you may not notice much of a difference. Two more
Look down inside the main compartment and you'll see The Guide's Pack's internal frame — the backbone of the bag. The internal frame consists of a unique, die-cut frame sheet of .060" high density polyethylene (HDPE) and a single stay of 1" / 25 mm wide 6061 aluminum. The stay is held in place by a strip of 2" wide nylon webbing sewn down the center of the frame sheet; you can remove the stay if for some reason you want a frame sheet but no frame. You can also remove the entire affair: six flat "pockets" on the inside back of The Guide's Pack are designed to retain the six lobes (or fins) of the frame sheet. These lobes are engineered to relieve the torsional stresses of the pack flexing as you walk; they also facilitate the design that allows the frame sheet to be easily removed from the pack. The aluminum stay comes to you pre-bent to approximate a generic spinal curve. If you find The Guide's Pack comfortable out of the gate, you're good. But if you need to adjust that curve, it's easy to do — and you needn't remove the stay or frame sheet from the pack to do it. Keep in mind that the idea is that the frame follows your spine: if, in trying to adjust the internal frame, you end up with some whacky pretzel-looking thing, you perhaps need a chiropractor more than you need a backpack. We'll be releasing a short DYI video on how to adjust the curve soon. (Read more about internal frames here.)
The Guide's Pack carries comfortably on curved, padded shoulder straps, 3/8" / 10 mm thick. Read more on our shoulder strap philosophy here. A sternum strap helps stabilize the load and allows you to adjust the placement and angle where the shoulder straps contact your shoulders — it's removable, which is handy if you find yourself not using it. A simple 1" wide waist belt also stabilizes the load and can actually take some weight off your shoulders — it, too, is removable. The back panel is Dri-Lex® Aero-Spacer® mesh, padded with .25" / 6 mm closed-cell foam; the foam extends around into the ballistic bottom of the bag. There's a simple 1" webbing haul loop at the top by the shoulder straps so you can hoist the thing up onto your shoulders when you're ready to go, or hang it by the door when you return; a smaller 5/8" webbing haul loop under the flap helps when you're standing in the kitchen filling The Guide's Pack with snacks, or at the trailhead making last-minute gear decisions.
The main body of The Guide's Pack is made of 420d HT Parapack fabric. We go into the 420d nylon used to make The Guide's Pack in depth over here, but in case you were late to class: 420 denier, high tenacity, type 6.6 nylon was originally developed for the military for use in parachute backpacks — the thing on the guy's back that holds the parachute. Paratroopers needed a fabric that was smooth, light, and strong. Long story short, as sometimes happens in business, cheaper (and not nearly as nice) fabrics became the industry standard. As I was developing the design of what was to become The Guide's Pack, I rediscovered 420d HT nylon and realized what a forgotten gem of a fabric it was. The bottom of The Guide's Pack is 1050 denier HT ballistic fabric: like our 420d HT Parapack, it's super tough and doesn't collect pet hair or snow. Read here about why we use ballistic nylon rather than leather on the bottom.
The exterior of The Guide's Pack has multiple accessory strap holders, made from synthetic felt and nylon webbing. There's one diamond accessory strap holder on the center front and a corresponding ice-axe loop below, so you're set for high-country, early-season mountaineering. If you go that route, or think you're gonna secure something else similar to the front, say, a camera tripod, make sure to add an optional Ice Axe Lash Strap. Four more diamond accessory strap holders on the top of the flap pocket invite you to strap on a very light sleeping bag or pad; two on the bottom extend the capacity even further: consider ordering a set or two of Lash Straps. Double accessory strap holders on the sides can act as lash points for more stuff, or you can attach Side Pockets. ↓
Side Pockets
The Guide's Pack accepts two optional Side Pockets. Either of these Side Pockets can handle most one-liter water bottles; a down vest and/or light rain shell will find a home there as well. A flap-covered #8 YKK zipper runs up the side and over the top for access; all Side Pockets feature a zippered (#5 YKK coil) pocket hidden on the underside (the side that's against the surface of the main pack when the pocket is in situ), for quick and furtive access to keys/wallet/phone. We recommend using two Side Pockets, one on each side, if you're going to use them at all, otherwise you and the pack may list a bit to either starboard or port — we don't want you walking in circles out there.
Also available is an amped-up version of the Side Pocket called the Lead's Pocket. It's the same size as the Left and Right Pockets, but it features extra, internal organization needed by the leader of any group: heavy webbing to clip multitools, flashlights, and knives; two zippered mesh pockets ideal for a space blanket or first aid supplies; three
All three styles of Side Pockets have a couple of clever hacks we should tell you about. Remove the Annex Clips from the back of any one of the pockets, remove the 1" waist belt from The Guide's Pack, attach the waist strap (using the Gatekeepers) to opposing webbing loops on the back of the Side Pocket, and voilà, you've got a waist pack. Additionally, you can remove the Annex Clips and slide a Side Pocket onto the lower extremes of the straps that secure the top flap down, adding a pocket to the lower front of the pack, though we're not sure if this is a good idea or not. You could also use the Annex Clips to attach two Side Pockets together: please let us know if you discover any utility to this trick.
The Side Pockets, Ice Axe Strap, and Lash Straps are available for order with The Guide's Pack on this page or à la carte on The Guide's Pack Accessories Page.
The Guide's Pack, as well as all the Side Pockets, comes with pre-cut lengths of cord so you can tie your own zipper pulls. You get enough cord to equip all zipper sliders with cord pulls; we give you both coyote-brown cords and red cords. The coyote cords match the other trim on The Guide's Pack; the red cords are easier to spot — mix them or match them, it's up to you.

GARDASIL is the only human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine that helps protect against 4 types of HPV. In girls and young women ages 9 to 26, GARDASIL helps protect against 2 types of HPV that cause about 75% of cervical cancer cases, and 2 more types that cause about 90% of genital warts cases. In boys and young men ages 9 to 26, GARDASIL helps protect against approximately 90% of genital warts cases.
GARDASIL also helps protect girls and young women ages 9 to 26 against approximately 70% of vaginal cancer cases and up to 50% of vulvar cancer cases.
GARDASIL may not fully protect everyone, nor will it protect against diseases caused by other HPV types or against diseases not caused by HPV. GARDASIL does not prevent all types of cervical cancer, so it's important for women to continue routine cervical cancer screenings. GARDASIL does not treat cancer or genital warts. GARDASIL is given as 3 injections over 6 months.
Anyone who is allergic to the ingredients of GARDASIL, including those severely allergic to yeast, should not receive the vaccine. GARDASIL is not for women who are pregnant.
The side effects include pain, swelling, itching, bruising, and redness at the injection site, headache, fever, nausea, dizziness, vomiting, and fainting. Fainting can happen after getting GARDASIL. Sometimes people who faint can fall and hurt themselves. For this reason, your child's health care professional may ask to sit or lie down for 15 minutes after they get GARDASIL. Some people who faint might shake or become stiff. This may require evaluation or treatment by your child's health care professional.
Only a doctor or health care professional can decide if GARDASIL is right for your child.
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088.
Please read the Patient Information for GARDASIL and discuss it with your child's doctor. The physician Prescribing Information also is available.

FMS P51 Mustang 1700 Series ARTF Electric Warbird with Retract Landing Gear
The first of the giant 1700 series of aircraft to arrive is the fabulous P51 'Ferocious Frankie' Mustang. It features unbelievable scale finishing and best of all requires minimal effort as its simple assembly will have you ready to take to the skies in just several hours.
The airframe features a removable 2 piece wing that is simplistic in attachment and connection, the new FMS 'multi-pin plugs' mean that the complex wiring is now just a single connection per wing and not the usual plate full of spaghetti normally seen in lesser airframes.
The cockpit is adorned with the full complement of dials and levers and the hand painted pilot finishes the effect. Upfront, the scale shape spinner and reinforced nylon four blade propellor really does give a purposeful look. As you would expect, the huge brushless out- runner motor is mated with a top quality ESC enabling stunning flight performance.
Metal gear servos handle all the control surfaces and are fast with great centring performance. The resulting flight performance gives a finesse unseen in a ARTF in this class. Get yourself down your local model shop and order the 1700 Series P51 Mustang and steel the limelight at your airfield.

Sunhood fitted to E3 stroller second seat securely. Works just great, and was able to put double storm cover over no problem. Fits neatly and looks great as well as doing the job of providing extra sun/wind cover for my little one.
Good all rounder

This product was purchased for my Sports Double Kit as I had no visor for it. I love how its versatile and can connect to most P&T double kits. I am impressed by the "follow the sun" concept that is used on the main pram sunhoods and glad to see it now is available for double kits. Once connected it can be moved up and down the frame for shorter/taller children.
The only shortfall of this product is I believe it is still relatively flimsy like the Navigator v1 double kit sunhood. It would be better if the material and framework held it in place 100%.
Overall though I am happy with the upgrade and it suits both my toddler and infants needs in the second seat!

I really wanted to love this since I love my stroller so much but I feel like it fell short. It's kind of floppy and doesn't provide much shade. I use an extra blanket to shade my newborn
Improved version

27. juli 20143/5
Glad they seem to have improved the sunhood. The 1st version is really bad, it extends beyond the seat and you kick it every single step. Also, it attaches with 4 push buttons and thus doesn't sit tightly on the seat but goes all wonky really quickly. This one seems to be attached the same way as the main seat sunhood, and doesn't seem to be as long as the first version. I wish I had this, but no can do, the first one is what I got with the double kit and don't want to spend more money.

About Icona Pop
About Pop Icona
Sometimes best friends make the best music partners. Thus is the case for Swedish electro-pop duo Icona Pop, which features 'besties' Aino Jawo and Caroline Hjelt.
If you don't know their story, Jawo and Hjelt went to the same school in Stockholm, but came together by chance when they crossed paths at a party back in the winter of 2009. Just four weeks later, they had written songs and performed together for the first time as a duo. The pairing worked, garnering glowing reviews from live performances, with critics calling them "effortlessly cool."
Icona Pop hit it big with the 2010 debut single "Manners," which was released on the French label Kitsune, and the EP "Nights Like This" on Mercury Records. Before long they were performing on the European festival circuit, and playing everywhere from the UK to Germany, Italy and Canada. They also made their U.S. debut in 2012 and released their second EP, "The Iconic," which featured the massive hit single "I Love It" as a digital download.
By 2013, Icona Pop was named one of Fuse television's 30 must-see artists at the South by Southwest festival. Their songs were also being used on shows like "The Vampire Diaries," and they made the rounds of late-night and early-morning talk shows. It all led up to the release of their debut international album, "This …Icona Pop" on September 24, 2013. The first single, "Girlfriend," was followed by "All Night," "We Got the World" and "I Love It" (featuring Charli XCX).
Icona Pop is currently playing a handful of dates in Sweden and Norway, and will take the stage at the Popload Festival in San Paulo, Brazil on November 28, 2014.

Afghan security forces arrested five men Saturday who possessed 11 tons of explosives, which they are suspected to have possessed in order to attack the capital of Kabul.
The men were arrested on the outskirts of Kabul, where they were driving a truck with Pakistani license plates. The truck contained 400 bags holding explosives hidden beneath sacks of potatoes, reported MSNBC. Three of the men were Pakistani terrorists, while the other two were Afghani collaborators. All five confessed to being trained by the Pakistani Taliban.
According to the New York Times, the explosives were also intended to be used in assassinating Afghanistan's second vice president, Karim Khalili.
On the same day the men were arrested, other attackers took over buildings in Kabul. The Taliban posted video clips of their attack plots on heir Alemara website.

|And the Emmy goes to...
Congratulations to All Children's Creative Services for winning a 2010 Suncoast Regional Emmy Award from the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. The award-winning video, "Follow Me to the NEW Hospital!" was created to help patients prepare for the move to our new facility in January of 2010. It was featured on WFLA-TV during our annual All Children's Hospital Telethon. The video stars our furry friends from the hospital's Pet Therapy program cast in the roles of patient and family. And a real patient - cancer survivor Mary Lumapas - provided the voice of the "pet patient," Resi the therapy dog.
Emmy statuettes will be awarded to Creative Services employees Ann Miller Baker/Producer, Bill Greene/Videographer, Mike Sexton/Director and to Mary Lumapas as the Voice of Resi. This is the second Suncoast Regional Emmy awarded to All Children's Creative Services Team for its Telethon-related work.
"Follow Me to the NEW Hospital!" was the sole entrant honored in the category of Children/Youth/Teens Programming for 2010. More than 850 videos in 40 categories were submitted for consideration from throughout the state of Florida; major TV markets in Louisiana; Mobile Alabama; Thomasville, Georgia and Puerto Rico. Emmy winners were announced at a gala banquet Saturday December 4th at the Westin Beach Resort in Ft. Lauderdale.

COLUMBUS, Ohio—Two Miami divers completed day one of the 2014 NCAA Zone C Diving Championships hosted at Ohio State's McCorkle Aquatics Pavilion in Columbus, Ohio. Sophomore Michael Nash and freshman Sean Sargent are representing the RedHawks in Columbus.
Nash concluded day one with an 18th place finish in the three-meter diving event. After scoring 312.35 points in the preliminary round, Nash tallied 274.80 points in the finals earning a combined score of 587.15 placing him 18th overall.
Sargent placed 35th in the three-meter event with a score of 244.75 points.
The NCAA Zone C Diving Championships are just one of five such events taking place across the country. Each one is allotted qualifying births to the NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships, which kick off later this month. Zone C has been allotted nine spots, so the top three divers in the three-meter dive, the top three in the one-meter event and the top two finishers in the platform dive are to automatically qualify for the NCAA Championships. The finals in each event are comprised of the top 18 finishers in the preliminary rounds.
Nash and Sargent both return to action for the RedHawks on Friday, this time competing in the one-meter diving event. The NCAA Zone C Diving Championships continue through Saturday, Mar. 15.

We offer the finest high quality lens technology available today. All of our prescription lab work is done through Essilor, the world's leader in ophthalmic lenses.
We have made adding your prescription lenses into your new frames very easy. Simply choose what type of lens material, vision type, and any other options you desire for your new glasses. You must add both your frame and your prescription to the shopping bag separately.
At the very end of the checkout you will have a chance to input your prescription or once we process your order you will receive an email requesting for it to be emailed or faxed to us. Your prescription must include your O.D. (Right Eye), O.S. (Left Eye) and PD (Pupillary Distance). Lab work typically takes 7-10 business days from the date the frame is in stock.
We understand the value of your new look and vision, if you prefer you can always contact us to speak to an optician over the phone. We want you to be as comfortable with your decision as possible. If you have any special requests regarding the lenses in your new frames or if you desire a specific brand of lenses please do not hesitate to ask. We work closely with our lab technicians and they can do practically anything with a lens.
If you receive your new prescription lenses and they are not correct in any way, we stand by our work, and will remake them for no charge within 30 days. This will not go against your warranty and additional shipping fees will not apply.
When we make your new prescription lenses you automatically receive a 1 year lens warranty for a one-time replacement of your lenses, at no charge. Adding any Crizal Anti-Reflective coating will offer you an additional 1 year of coverage. This does not cover you for negligence against your lenses. NOTE: Warranty lens replacement is only for the original prescription used at the time of purchase.
Single Vision: A regular vision that only has one focal point. Helps wearer to either see near or far but cannot do both.
- Nearsightedness (Myopia): A refractive disorder. In this condition, the eyeball is too long, meaning the eye cannot focus on faraway objects. It is commonly accepted that a combination of genetic and environmental factors play a role. Nearsightedness is much easier to correct through refractive surgery than farsightedness. Most ocular surgeons agree that due to the nature of the surgery, most patients need reading glasses past the age of 40.
- Farsightedness (Hyperopia): It is the opposite of nearsightedness. The eyeball is too short and cannot focus on near objects. Unlike nearsightedness, it generally believed that only a person's genetics determine whether he or she will develop this condition. Corrective lenses are the most common treatment.
Bifocal (Presbyopia): The lens is divided into two segments which offers distance viewing on the top and near vision on the smaller lower segment. You can see visible lines depicting the division of sight distance.
Progressive: Also known as trifocal, no-line bifocal, PAL or multifocal lenses. Offers the same functionality of a bifocal lens but allows smoother transition between the focal points. No visible line to separate the different prescription.
Plano (Non-RX): These lenses have no degree. They're basically just clear Plastic, Polycarbonate or Trivex lenses. Used in accessory glasses or to add a custom tint to a lens when a prescription is not needed.
Plastic Lens: Plastic Lens or CR-39 have a refractive index of 1.53. It has comparable scratch resistance to glass and offers a low price solution for prescription lenses. We use a high quality Essilor lens for standard plastic progressive prescriptions or upgrade to a Varilux Physio or Shamir lens for a wider field of vision.
Polycarbonate Lens: Polycarbonate Lenses have a refractive index of 1.59. It is 35% thinner and 45% lighter and flatter than plastic lenses. It is 10 times more impact resistant and three times more scratch resistant than plastic. 100% UVA/UVB Protection. Ideal for rimless, drill mount frames and highly active people. We use a high quality Essilor lens for standard polycarbonate progressive prescriptions or upgrade to a Varilux Physio or Shamir lens for a wider field of vision.
Trivex Lens: Trivex Lenses have a refractive index of 1.54 and are ultra lightweight. It has similar impact resistance to polycarbonate but is more scratch resistant. 100% UVA/UVB Protection. Ideal for drill mount frames and highly active people. We use a high quality Essilor lens for standard Trivex progressive prescriptions or upgrade to a Varilux Physio or Shamir lens for a wider field of vision.
High Index Lens: High Index lenses represent the latest lens technology available today, it enhancing cosmetic appearance and offering perceived added value. High Index lenses reduce the thickness and weight of an eyeglass lens, particularly for individuals with a strong prescription. We use Varilux Physio lenses for ALL High Index progressive prescriptions unless requested otherwise.
Varilux Physio Lenses: Varilux Physio lenses will provide wearers with superior visual sharpness, much wider fields of vision and greater visual and postural comfort. High Resolution Vision will also be maintained whatever the situation and the lighting conditions. All Varilux Physio lenses are available with eyecode, resulting in lenses being more optically precise and offering instant and effortless vision.
Varilux S Design Lenses: Varilux S series is the new Varilux premium range of varifocal lenses that provide Unlimited Vision whatever the situation. If you already wear varifocal lenses you'll appreciate that no matter how much your glasses improve your vision there are some limitations. You may notice a swimming effect at the sides of your lenses or have a narrower field of vision than you would like. The Varilux S series range is the first and only varifocal lens that eliminates theses annoying constraints, giving you ultimate vision with no compromise! Currently only available for progressive Plastic, Polycarbonate and High Index 1.67 Lenses.
Anti-Reflective Coating: Recommended with every prescription. Anti-Reflective Coating decreasing reflection and even makes frames aesthetically look better. It helps produce less glare, which is particularly noticeable when driving at night or working in front of a computer monitor. The decreased glare means that wearers often find their eyes are less tired, particularly at the end of the day. Allowing more light to pass through the lens also increases contrast and therefore increases visual acuity. Choosing any of our Crizal AR Coatings will also provide you with a 2 year lens warranty. We suggest Crizal AR Coatings as they are the best in the industry. To see the different benefits of each Crizal coating click HERE.

Great financial return
I have been using sport schedules from Magnet Street for a number of years. My referral sources keep them near their work desk and they have resulted in loans every year that I have sent them. The return was many, many times the cost. The first time I sent these schedules I only sent about 100 and I've increased the number every year. I'm now up to 1,000.

Dog Arthritis
Signs and Symptoms
Arthritis is a painful condition that can affect adults, children, and even our beloved canine companions. In fact, arthritis is common amongst dogs and is one of the main causes of chronic pain in canines. Arthritis can be a very debilitating disease, greatly detracting from a dog's quality of life and ability to enjoy even the most basic of daily activities. None of us like to see our pets suffer and the sooner your dog's condition is identified, the sooner it can be treated and controlled. Your dog will be extremely grateful if you can provide him or her with relief from the crippling aches and pains of canine arthritis, so be sure to keep an eye out for any of the common warning signs of this condition so that diagnosis and treatment can occur as early on as possible.
One common symptom of dog arthritis is limping or favoring one or more limbs. This lameness may have a gradual onset and may be most noticeable when your pet first gets up. Reluctance to rise from a resting position, or difficulty with doing so, is another behavior frequently displayed by arthritic dogs. A dog with this disease may also have difficulty sitting or standing, and often experiences general stiffness that is worse in the morning and gradually improves throughout the day. Also, due to pain and stiffness, your pet may begin to lag behind on walks and lose interest in regular activities such as running, jumping, playing, and climbing stairs.
Other telltale signs to watch out for include decreased alertness and more time spent sleeping. An arthritic dog's joints may appear swollen and will often be painful when touched. Some dogs with this disease don't like to be touched or petted, and may yelp or show other signs of pain when touched. Weight gain may also occur, and some arthritic dogs experience a reduced appetite. If these symptoms and behaviors seem to describe what your dog is going through, canine arthritis could be the culprit. However, it's important to keep in mind that these symptoms can also be caused by other conditions and arthritis itself comes in more than one form. So be sure to contact your veterinarian as soon as possible so that your dog can be examined, diagnosed, and treated appropriately.
When a dog is being evaluated for arthritis, the veterinarian will go over the canine patient's medical history and conduct a physical examination. The practitioner will want to know about your pet's lifestyle as well as the symptoms and behaviors you have observed at home. During the physical exam, the veterinary doctor will identify and evaluate clinical signs and also palpate the dog's joints. In the early stages of arthritis, only soft tissues are affected and, thus, the disease may very well not be evident on an x-ray. However, the dog's joints will be swollen and sore, and the veterinarian will be able to detect this through the physical examination.
If the arthritis has progressed far enough that bone changes have begun to occur, x-rays can be very helpful with identifying the arthritis and assessing the degree of joint damage. Other diagnostic methods may also be employed in order to identify the specific form of arthritis present and to evaluate the stage and progression of the disease. For example, blood tests and joint fluid analysis can be used to diagnose certain types of arthritis. When infectious or septic arthritis is affecting a dog, the fluid surrounding the joints (synovial fluid) will contain white blood cells and bacteria. With a case of rheumatoid arthritis, blood tests will indicate that the dog's system is attacking its own joints. Furthermore, a number of other tests, including an antinuclear antibody test, can be used to confirm a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis in a canine patient.
A dog's musculoskeletal system consists of bones, muscles, connective tissues, and joints. Joints are formed where bones come together and act as the body's hinges, allowing for movement and flexibility. There are three different kinds of joints in a dog's body — ball and socket joints, hinged joints, and gliding joints. The different configurations of these joints allow for different ranges and types of motion. Joints also consist of several components that provide stability and reduce the potential damage and wear and tear that can occur as a result of constant use. For instance, cartilage is a smooth but tough form of protective tissue that covers the ends of bones, absorbing shock and reducing friction. Furthermore, synovial tissue forms a lining that encloses joints in a joint capsule. This capsule contains synovial fluid, which further helps to reduce friction and aid movement.
The term arthritis refers to inflammation of a joint. This can occur for several different reasons and, thus, there are a number of different types of arthritis. Osteoarthritis (degenerative joint disease) is the most common form of this disease to affect canines, but inflammatory types like infectious (septic) arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis can also cause problems for dogs. In the case of osteoarthritis, the dog's bones become damaged as a result of changes to the cartilage. The cartilage provides a cushion for bones, preventing them from rubbing or hitting each other as the joint moves. However, if the cartilage becomes dried or chipped, the bones are exposed and interfere with the joint's normally smooth movement. The dog's body responds to such a situation by sending white blood cells to the affected joint. Unfortunately, this just makes matters worse as the enzymes released by the white blood cells damage and thin the synovial fluid, greatly reducing its lubricating properties. As a result, the joint capsule becomes inflamed, causing swelling, stiffness, and pain.
With septic arthritis, a dog's joints are damaged as a result of an infection. In a case of rheumatoid arthritis, the damage is caused by the dog's body attacking itself. No matter what form of arthritis is affecting a canine patient, however, the joints become inflamed and painful, giving rise to the many telltale warning signs of canine arthritis.
Different forms of dog arthritis can be caused by different factors and conditions. Osteoarthritis is a form of degenerative joint disease that results from cartilage destruction. This damage to the cartilage can occur for several reasons. Sometimes, abnormal joints are at the root of the problem. For example, hip dysplasia is a condition involving the malformation of hip joints. When a dog suffers from hip dysplasia, its hip joints are unable to withstand normal amounts of stress, leading to damage and arthritis. Traumatic injuries, constant jumping, or strenuous exercise can also cause degenerative joint disease, by placing abnormal stress on the dog's joints. Therefore, normal levels of stress can lead to arthritis when joints are abnormal, and abnormal levels of stress can lead to arthritis when a dog's joints are normal.
Since degenerative joint disease can result from wear and tear and increased stress on the joints, there are certain factors that can contribute to a dog's likelihood of developing osteoarthritis. For example, larger dogs tend to be more prone to developing osteoarthritis, probably due to the increased weight and stress placed on the joints. For similar reasons, overweight dogs are at a higher risk for developing this condition. Senior dogs, working dogs, and those with certain conditions like diabetes also tend to be more likely to end up with osteoarthritis.
Inflammatory forms of joint disease include septic arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. These types of arthritis are much less common in dogs than osteoarthritis, especially rheumatoid arthritis, but they can occur. Septic arthritis can be caused by an infection, including bacterial infections, fungal infections, and tick-borne diseases. Rheumatoid arthritis, on the other hand, is caused by an underlying immune-mediated disease. This involves a weakness in the dog's immune system that causes the animal's body to attack its own joints. Often this underlying condition will be hereditary.
While there is no cure for canine arthritis, there are several treatments available that can effectively reduce pain and inflammation, vastly improving your dog's comfort and happiness. There are also certain steps that you, as a pet owner, can take to reduce the likelihood of your pet developing arthritis. These preventative strategies include ensuring that your dog stays fit and exercises regularly, while also making sure that exercise and activities are not overly strenuous. A healthy diet is also important, as is maintaining a healthy weight. All of these strategies together can lower your dog's risk of arthritis as well as increasing your pet's overall health.
If your dog already has arthritis, there are a number of effective treatments available that can help with the pain and swelling caused by joint disease. For obese pets, carefully monitored weight loss can significantly reduce pain by relieving some of the stress on the dog's joints. There are also certain anti-inflammatory, analgesic medications available that can help to relieve symptoms of arthritis. Supplements can also be very beneficial, including glucosamine, chondroitin, and fatty acids.
Homeopathic remedies are also very effective for many arthritic dogs. These remedies contain natural ingredients with a variety of properties that help to relieve the painful and troubling symptoms of canine arthritis. For example, natural substances such as guggul and ginger are powerful anti-inflammatories that very effectively reduce chronic and acute swelling. In addition, milk vetch and ginseng stimulate and boost the immune system, while cayenne combats irritation and provides pain relief. With so many natural ingredients having such varied and beneficial properties, homeopathic remedies can go a long way toward increasing an arthritic dog's comfort and quality of life.

About Compression Base Layers
Compression base layers enhance performance in training, competing and recovery, and are designed to reduce the quick build up of lactic acid in the muscles, whilst keeping you comfortable and dry during exercise by wicking moisture away from your skin. Body moulded compression garments also improve recovery after periods of sustained exercise and help to regulate your body temperature. Compression baselayers also help prevent muscle oscillation which leads to muscle fatigue and help to minimise muscle soreness.

I know we've talked about it ad nauseum, but I sure do love that logo.
Same here. That logo along with the hilarious pelican videos sold me on the name. (yes, i know its not the official logo).
Sorry yall. I stole the code for that table off another website. For the life of me i can't figure out why its leaving that gap in the center of the page. Oh well. You get what ya pay for.

Well, on the bright side, I think we only have one more game against OKC after this one.
So far, this series has been really ugly......
Not surprising given the difference in talent and proven players between the two teams.
"I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."
Ill be at the game tonight rocking my Hornets gear and pissing all the Thunder fans off!
I love the Hornets, but now am all on board with the PELS.... Geaux Pelicans!
Again?!?!?! What do I care... we lost to the worst team in the NBA last night. I predict we lose by 29 tonight. 119-90.
Yay we get to get dominated. IDC I just want to see AD get back to normal and rivers to continue to show improvements.
My Anthony Davis website: http://thebrow.uphero.com/
I'm just watching for the Rookies and my dude RANDERSON.
We already know what's going to happen. Durant will do his thing, Westbrook will do the gun in the holster thing at least twice, Kevin Martin will shoot threes, Ibaka will block at least 3 shots and Perkins will try to get under some Hornets player's skin.
Let's hope we interrupt them by Rivers dropping 50!
...% from the FT line. At least.
He needs to work on that.
BOLD Prediction: Austin Davis gets a triple double tonight points/rebounds/blocks.
Vasquez should guard Sefoloshsa and let Rivers check Westbrook
Rivers will learn how to make those layups. You actually need to start laying it up a beat BEFORE you normally would. Give yourself more room to get the ball away from you and get more arc on it.
Aminu is so dumb. Why in the world would you leave Durant?! There's absolutely no reason to at all.
I hate how they let players play rough then aminu blows a kiss to a player twice his size in Ibaka and he gets called for a foul... it's just so inconsistent it drives me insane.

I got this pack for myself and my son to use for day hikes with his Boy Scout troop. I was unsure about whether I would keep it at first, since it seemed small and there were no side pouches. But it really was the perfect size for a day hike, and it hugs nice and tight to you so scrambling and climbing over rocks is no problem. We both had 2 liter water bladders, snacks, safety gear (light, compass, knife, etc), shell, and an extra shirt, and I was carrying an extra liter of water. It all fit with room to spare. The chest strap and hip strap make carrying the weight very comfortable. I would recommend this pack.
I bought this pack based on the recommendations of the other product reviews....MY BAD! If you're 5 foot nothing and weigh in at...say.....100 lbs or less this...this is the perfect pack for you. Anyone else shouldn't bother. I've had better shots in Stockmans!
I love this pack! I bought it for a trip to Italy for two months. I needed something to carry small items like a camera and notebook, but I have also lugged around my climbing gear, rusty old bike locks, a 15" laptop(no cover, it barely fits) and textbooks. This pack is the perfect size if you want to be a minimalist but not sacrifice a majority of functionality. Sometimes I wish it had a daisy chain or elastic webbing on the outside for oddly shaped things.. but yet again, it wouldn't be so minimalist. It's meant for climbing.. so if you are going to never use it for that then check out the other bd packs because they may have a few more bells and whistles.
I bought this to put my climbing gear to take to the gym instead of using a regular backpack-works great, its the perfect size I need, nothing too big, not too small. I really wanted it because of the chest strap features because hiking in at places to climb can get a bit tricky, and its good to know the pack isnt going anywhere.
The Shot pack is a great lightweight small sized bullet backpack! Perfect size for carrying a water bottle or two, snacks, a sweater/rain layer and your handy dandy guide book. Well placed chest strap and hip strap so it stays nice and snug on you while you get your body into any contorted position you can imagine. I use this pack for long trad climbing routes, trail running, school and pretty much everything else. Fits everything you need without excess! Quality craftsmanship, well designed and sleek looks make this pack a must have for any adventurer!
I'd try this one on in the store if able. I purchased this online and was a little surprised when I received it. However, I took my school books out of my climbing bag (sphynx 42L) and was able to put them all into the shot pack (16L). I think this will be a nice addition while on hikes or to the local climbing gym; A harness, shoes, H2O bladder, and some Blueberry crisp Clif bars. Anything made by BD is great quality!
I recently got this pack in the mail and immediately began using it. My first impression was that it is very small, but I wasn't looking for anything big. I took it biking to a little climbing spot and it has just enough space for a camelbak, a coat in case it starts to rain, climbing chalk, and maybe a pair of shoes. If you are looking for something to get you through a two hour adventure or something to get your fsvorite bouldering spot, then this is the perfect little pack for you.
I use this pack all the time, almost exclusively for two specific purposes. Biking. It's the perfect size for my hydration bladder, some snacks and spare clothes or a raincoat. Indoor Bouldering. It's the perfect size for my shoes, chalkbag and some climbing pants. It fits really nice and snug, so it is very comfortable to wear on the go. Sometimes I like to take it along with my bigger packs just so it doesn't get lonely at home!
We just received this pack in the mail (purchased with moosejaw rewards points). It is a killer pack and is even more burly than we thought when we ordered it. The only thing that we thought (and maybe you are smarter than us and wouldn't think this) was that the stash pocket was different than the front zipper pocket. Stash pockets, to me, don't have zippers and are used on the inside of jackets, etc. to stash stuff in. We were hoping to stash our water canister in the stash pocket on this bag... but there is no stash pocket per se so we bought a Bactrian camel (next best thing).
This pack is uber-awesome. It's great for day trips on the trail, carrying pistachios on the slopes, and even bringing stuff to and from work and school. If you are looking for a small pack for just the essentials, GET THIS PACK.

Earthquake, derecho, hurricane - fine! Snow, not so much ...
Wednesday - 1/30/2013, 2:00am EST
A couple of years ago, we in the D.C. area had an earthquake followed by a hurricane that weekend. No sweat. Bring it on.
Superstorm Sandy missed us by a matter of a few miles, trashing New Jersey and Manhattan instead. Lots of groups from the D.C. area sent money or volunteered to do cleanup to help our neighbors to the north.
Last June, the D.C. metro area was slammed by a suprise, violent storm that brought powerful horizontal winds and rain. It was the first time most of us had ever heard of a derecho. It started in the Midwest, lasted about 12 to 18 hours, and covered 700 to 800 miles by the time it hit the Mid-Atlantic. There were 91 mph winds in Fort Wayne, Ind., 2.7 inch hail stones in Illinois and a tornado in Ohio. Most of us picked up the pieces and moved on.
But since D.C. was made the capital, the area has faced a losing war with winter. Snow and ice to be specific. Part of it is geographic. We are a huge land area between mountains and the nation's largest bay. The Atlantic is just on the other side. We straddle north and south. Some suburban Maryland counties have Canadian style weather and flora and fauna. Being a river town you are always going either up hill or down hill. The founding fathers put traffic circles everywhere, somehow anticipating the invention of the automobile, millions of tourists and an influx of government workers.
The D.C. area probably has more lawyers (and shrinks) than any other major metro area. Your chances of getting sued here, for just about anything, are high. So we tend to err on the side of caution. Especially when it snows. Especially in the government (our largest employer and source of traffic) and with school systems (and buses) in the suburbs.
Bottom line, everybody has got a tough weather story, even on days like Monday when it was more frozen rain than snow. Example:
- 'I moved to the D.C. metro area several years ago from Hill AFB just outside of Salt Lake City. During the winter in that area, we did not measure snow in inches, but rather in feet. The weather rarely (if ever) closed anything. However, I was glad that the government closed or delayed opening when it did. It was not that I had problems driving in the snow (I had lived in it for several years in several places), but the locals seemed to have a problem with the idea of "slow down for bad weather". The local attitude seemed to be that if you had four-wheel drive or front-wheel drive you could still go as fast as you want. Of course these things did not help you to stop on ice or snow
The general problem was that the locals did not get snow often enough to learn how to drive in bad weather. So, in order to survive in this area I would stay home
Oh, by the way I retired and moved away from the D.C. area and we get a lot less snow here and I don't have to worry about closings anymore! Happy to be out of the mess." — Rick T.
- D.C. got off till noon. Baltimore got nothing!" — Dave A.
- "About D.C. being a weather wimp city, I can see it both ways now. I started as a fed in my hometown of Chicago in 1999 and for the seven years I was there, the Federal Executive Board never closed for snow or cold. Never. On occasion, I walked six blocks from the station to the Kluczynski Building in -10 degree weather and that was without a windchill. Then I got ambitious and came to D.C. (And in the process learned that, "The journey of a thousand miles sometimes ends very, very badly" but thats another story.) What I noticed when I got here is that the weather is more like downstate Illinois. There, and here, storms start off as rain that then freezes. In Chicago, there rarely were ice storms as it was always cold enough to start as snow. Living in Arlington, I would wake up expecting to find a pile of cars that slid down one hill and couldn't get back up the other side. So the ice is one thing that makes D.C. less of a "weather wimp." The second thing is snow removal. I don't think it is the priority in the D.C. area that it is in Chicago. Snow removal cost Michael Bilandic his job as the mayor of Chicago in 1979 and believe you me, Chicago politicians NEVER forget that. So less snow removal equipment is another reason D.C. is less than a weather wimp.
