Substance abuse is a term used to describe the continuum of problems related to misuse of substances (alcohol, illicit or prescription drugs, food) that are potentially addictive.
Ongoing substance abuse can become substance dependence which, if untreated, can develop into addiction. The disease of addiction is progressive, chronic and, without effective intervention, can be fatal. Like other chronic diseases, it can be managed with ongoing support and the maintenance of a healthy – physical, mental and spiritual – lifestyle.
TLAP's staff can provide counseling for the lawyer in crisis, as well as referrals to professionals in the substance abuse field who are familiar with the challenges of the legal profession. Also, TLAP can provide referrals to professionals who treat process addictions, such as gambling, internet, sex and pornography.

Kent State Fashion School Director and Professor Collaborate and Win Artist of the Year in Seoul BeinnalePosted Dec. 3, 2010
The Kent State University School of Fashion Design and Merchandising announces that School Director J.R. Campbell and Associate Professor of Fashion Design Vincent Quevedo were collaboratively awarded the "International Artist of the Year" award at the 2010 Fashion Art Biennale in Seoul, South Korea, for their piece "DMZ," which stands for de-militarized zone.**
The winning piece is made up of two knit dresses on dress forms connected by a large section of fabric printed with optical illusion imagery. The middle section has vents and tubes sewn into it, incorporating photos taken from a military submarine's control panel. "The piece is meant to invoke a somewhat voyeuristic response to investigating the tubes, which mimics the Western hemisphere's cultural response to the DMZ between North and South Korea," said Campbell. Campbell and Quevedo collaboratively conceived of, designed and created the piece, down to the fabric. Campbell graphically designed the cotton jersey knit fabric and digitally printed it in the school's TechStyleLAB.
Campbell attended the Biennale as one of only four American speakers at the week-long event. The event drew 104 artists from 17 nations and included a symposium of various speakers, performances and the main exhibition on the theme of Fashion Art - War/Peace, which was in honor of the 60th anniversary of the Korean War.
The event was held during the G-20 Summit that took place in Seoul Nov. 11-12. The Group of Twenty (G-20) Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors was established in 1999 to bring together representatives from important industrialized and developing economies to discuss issues key to the global economy. Attendees of the summit visited the event and enjoyed the art and performances.
One very positive outcome of Campbell and Quevedo's participation was an invitation extended to the Fashion School by the Chinese government to send ten Kent State fashion design students to show their work during China's Fashion Week in March 2011 in Beijing. The chosen students will enjoy an all-expense paid trip and the opportunity to feature their designs before an international audience. Students will be chosen during a competitive process by Campbell and the faculty of the Fashion School.
The Fashion School is a member of the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA), and is also recognized as one of the top Fashion Schools in the United States. The school provides a comprehensive American university experience, a forward looking and rigorous curriculum in fashion, an aggressive approach to the use of digital technologies, and access to a broad range of international and study away experiences. For more information on the Fashion School and the TechStyleLAB, please visit http://www.kent.edu/artscollege/fashion.
**The Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) is a stretch of land that runs the width of the Korean Peninsula and serves as a buffer between North and South Korea. It is unique in that it marks a divide between two countries still technically at war. Visiting the DMZ is strictly prohibited. It is because of this fact that the area has become one of the most well preserved stretches of wilderness in the world. The DMZ is a place one should visit to gain an understanding into the Korean psyche, which has largely been formed through the occupations, wars and division the nation has suffered over the years.

About Suzuki Method
The Suzuki Method is based on the principle that all children possess ability and that this ability can be developed and enhanced through a nurturing environment. All children learn to speak their own language with relative ease and if the same natural learning process is applied in teaching other skills, these can be acquired as successfully. Suzuki referred to the process as the Mother Tongue Method and to the whole system of pedagogy as Talent Education. The important elements of the Suzuki approach to instrumental teaching include the following:an early start (aged 3-4 is normal in most countries); the importance of listening to music; learning to play before learning to read; -the involvement of the parent; a nurturing and positive learning environment; a high standard of teaching by trained teachers; the importance of producing a good sound in a balanced and natural way; core repertoire, used by Suzuki students across the world; social interaction with other children. Suzuki students from all over the world can communicate through the language of music./p/div

Beautiful Minds
Tucked away in a small nook of Seaman Hall, the Claremont Autism Center is a thriving treatment and research center for children with Autism and their families. Students from CMC and Claremont Graduate University are welcomed into the clinic to learn how to work with the children and receive training in applied behavior analysis techniques. Members of the community are also encouraged to take advantage of the special learning opportunities available there.
"We have discovered that children with autism are visual learners," says Dr. Marjorie Charlop, the center's director. The center has adapted the way they teach speech by incorporating more visual presentations into the curriculum. "With pictures and videos on different forms of technology like the iPad," she says, "we find that by making communication very concrete, and first teaching it through a visual image, they understand what the spoken word means."
While working on a shoestring budget, the cost of critical technology has created a need for additional funding. To help the Center implement these proven, successful treatments, please consider a donation to the Claremont Autism Center.

The second session of the 113th Congress enacted into law 224 out of the 3215 introduced bills (7 percent). Comparatively, the 112th Congress had 4.2 percent of introduced bills enacted into law in the second session.[5] For more information pertaining to Duffy's voting record in the 113th Congress, please see the below sections.[6]
National security
Duffy voted for HR 1960 - the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014. The bill passed the House on June 14, 2013, with a vote of 315 - 108. Both parties were somewhat divided on the vote.[7]
DHS Appropriations
Duffy voted for HR 2217 - the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act of 2014. The bill passed the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 245 - 182 that was largely along party lines.[8]
Keystone Pipeline Amendment
Duffy voted against House Amendment 69, which would have amended HR 3 to "require that the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, in consultation with the Department of Homeland Security, conduct a study of the vulnerabilities of the Keystone XL pipeline to a terrorist attack and certify that necessary protections have been put in place." The amendment failed on May 22, 2013, with a vote of 176 - 239 and was largely along party lines.[9]
Duffy voted for HR 624 - the CISPA (2013). The bill passed the House on April 18, 2013, with a vote of 288 - 127. The bill would allow federal intelligence agencies to share cybersecurity intelligence and information with private entities and utilities. The bill was largely supported by Republicans, but divided the Democratic Party.[10]

- See also: United States Farm Bill 2013
Duffy voted for the Farm Bill on July 11, 2013. The bill passed in a 216-208 vote.[11] The bill passed included farm policy, but did not include food stamps.[12]
Government shutdown
- See also: United States budget debate, 2013
On September 30, 2013, the House passed a final stopgap spending bill before the shutdown went into effect. The bill included a one-year delay of the Affordable Care Act's individual mandate and would have also stripped the bill of federal subsidies for congressional members and staff. It passed through the House with a vote of 228-201.[13] At 1 a.m. on October 1, 2013, one hour after the shutdown officially began, the House voted to move forward with going to a conference. In short order, Sen. Harry Reid rejected the call to conference.[14] Duffy voted to approve the stopgap spending bill that would have delayed the individual mandate.[15]
The shutdown finally ended on October 16, 2013, when the House took a vote on HR 2775 after it was approved by the Senate. The bill to reopen the government lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funds the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies.[16] The House passed the legislation shortly after the Senate, by a vote of 285-144, with all 144 votes against the legislation coming from Republican members. Duffy voted against HR 2775.[17]
Morton Memos Prohibition
Duffy voted for House Amendment 136 - Prohibits the Enforcement of the Immigration Executive Order. The amendment was adopted by the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 224 - 201. The purpose of the amendment as stated on the official text is to "prohibit the use of funds to finalize, implement, administer, or enforce the Morton Memos." These memos would have granted administrative amnesty to certain illegal aliens residing in the United States.[18] The vote largely followed party lines.[19]
Health Care Reform Rules
Duffy voted for House Amendment 450 - Requires Congressional Approval for Any Rules Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The amendment was adopted by the House on August 2, 2013, with a vote of 227-185. The amendment requires that all changes to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act be approved by Congress before taking effect. The vote was largely along party lines.[20]
Social issues
Duffy voted for HR 1797 - Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. The resolution passed the House on June 18, 2013, with a vote of 228 - 196 that largely followed party lines. The purpose of the bill is to ban abortions that would take place 20 or more weeks after fertilization.[21]
Previous congressional sessions
Fiscal Cliff
Duffy voted against the fiscal cliff compromise bill, which made permanent most of the Bush tax cuts originally passed in 2001 and 2003 while also raising tax rates on the highest income levels. He was 1 of 151 Republicans that voted against the bill. The bill was passed in the House by a 257 - 167 vote on January 1, 2013.[22]
Criticism of Ted Cruz
Duffy criticized Cruz in September 2013 over Cruz's handling of Obamacare. He said, "It is a concern, and that's why when these conservatives in the Senate were running ads, raising money and holding rallies about this great strategy and using House conservatives as pawns in that strategy, we were silent. We believe in this rule of Ronald Reagan where we don't take shots at fellow Republicans. So we held our fire. We kept our powder dry. It's just when it came to us agreeing with the strategy and Ted Cruz and others bailing on us, that it was a boiling point where that this is absolutely ridiculous. You can't talk to the American people, you can't talk to our bases on this strategy and then completely roll over. Thank God he wasn't there fighting at the Alamo." Duffy's criticism followed Cruz commenting prior to even the House vote, that the bill to repeal Obamacare would fail in the Senate.[23][24]
Assaulted outside of Capitol
During the 2013 government shutdown over the budget debate, Duffy was walking to a vote at the Capitol when a citizen began screaming at him and then grabbed his arm. Duffy was not hurt, but reported the incident to police.[25]
Duffy ran in the 2014 election for the U.S. House, representing Wisconsin's 7th District. Duffy sought the Republican nomination in the primary. The general election took place November 4, 2014.
Duffy ran for re-election in 2012.[26] He was unopposed in the Republican primary and defeated Democrat Pat Kreitlow in the November general election.[27]

Race Background
In 2011 redistricting, The Hill published a list of the Top Ten House Members who were helped by redistricting.[38] Duffy ranked 7th on the list.[38] The article noted that Republican state legislators traded some of the Democratic leaning areas with Republican areas, "making the district a toss-up and giving him a better chance of holding on to the seat."[38] Wisconsin's 7th District became more Republican following redistricting after the 2010 census, giving Duffy an edge over Kreitlow.[39] While the district became more Republican, Duffy came under fire in 2011 for comments he made about his personal wealth. He complained that it was difficult to pay bills on his congressional salary, which was $174,000.[40]
The 2012 race brought in a lot of money. Kreitlow raised $1.2 million by mid-October, and Duffy had raised twice that amount. Another $4.3 million was spent by outside groups on attack ads on both sides.[41]

Last week's announcement detailing the rollout of Google's fiber optic network had the feel of a Silicon Valley big-time new product launch. It was definitely a big deal for Kansas City on both sides of the state line. Most importantly, information flowed copiously from Google about the details of their project—a welcome relief from the hitherto tight-lipped tech giant. The Google Fiber announcement lived up to the initial promise to deliver gigabit Internet speeds over a fiber optic network to homes at competitive prices. Much of the speculation about things exceeding this initial promise were confirmed as well—that a television package would be included, that one particular package would provide free internet access, that Google would use its Nexus 7 tablet as a remote for your television and that each TV box would also serve as an Internet router. Everyone I've talked to since the event seemed very satisfied, now that we know the details, of Google Fiber.
But, there were three key things missing from the Google Fiber announcement last week.
Many had speculated that in order for Google to compete in the highly regulated and monopolized cable industry, they would have to offer the traditional "triple play" of services—phone, Internet and television. The announcement certainly delivered on the latter two, but the traditional phone line service was not even mentioned. Google didn't address the traditional landline phone service (or voice over internet protocol or VOIP) that many homes receive as a part of a bundled package.But does anyone really care? Landlines or VOIP technology is certainly nothing new. The number of households with landlines had been steadily declining for several decades now as more and more Americans use mobile phones exclusively. And, as phones continue to get "smarter" this trend shows no sign of slowing—eventually replacing landlines altogether.Plus, Google has long offered phone services through its various mobile phone offerings. Google's Android platform has now become commonplace. And, as one of the Googlers at the announcement told me, the traditional ten-digit phone number is no longer relevant. The future is the IP address, not the customary area code plus seven digits. So the traditional cable providers can keep their landlines and the accompanying services. If you want Google phone service, go buy an Android phone.Big Business
Kansas Citians have long assumed that Google would make its services available for commercial uses, to the myriad small, medium and big businesses that operate in KC and in every other city in the country. It would make sense that if Google planned to spend time and money wiring up large neighborhoods, they would want to maximize their profits by including commercial service offerings as well. If your business could afford gigabit Internet speeds, wouldn't every corporation in the city want that advantage over their competition?All Google said on this topic was that the local business offerings would be coming soon. Kevin Lo, the General Manager of Google Access said, "today, we are here to talk about the residential users but for the businesses in the areas where we are building, stay tuned. We've got some great packages for you and we will be making those announcements soon."But Google has been very clear since the beginning that Google Fiber is, as they say in the biz, a fiber to the home (FTTH) project, so this should not have been a surprise to anyone. I have my own speculation about why Google made this strategic decision, but it will be interesting to see what their business packages will look like when they are announced. When it comes to the entrepreneurial community, many people start their companies in their homes anyway. Many coders, developers and app builders will take advantage of the gigabit network to build and test their ideas faster, right from their own living rooms. I suspect this will lead to a renaissance of technology-based startups in the Kansas City area. Just because Google doesn't have a specific package for commercial entities, doesn't mean that people won't use the network to start their own companies using the fiber that comes directly to their homes.
The 'burbs
Google announced last year that it had chosen two cities for its Google Fiber project – Kansas City, Kan. and Kansas City, Mo. Though these two cities represent a large chunk of the Kansas City metropolitan area, Google remained mum on its potential offerings in its larger and wealthier suburbs, particularly in Johnson County, Kan. Overland Park, located in Johnson County, is actually the second largest city in all of Kansas (after Wichita), so speculation has been rampant that Google Fiber will eventually connect these upper middle class suburbs. Google also defined a relatively small area of the large land area that makes up massive Kansas City, Mo., leaving out suburbs such as Independence, Lee's Summit, Blue Springs and the areas around the Kansas City airport.None of this should be a surprise. Google defined the boundaries from day one, actually splitting up the announcement of the areas that its fiber network would initially cover by more than a month. (Kansas City, Kan. was announced on March 30, 2011 and Kansas City, Mo. on May 17, 2011). In my discussions on Google Fiber, these suburban areas never came up as potential Google Fiber destinations. Google never pledged to cover them, but has hinted that it may want to eventually expand to other cities beyond the Kansas City. Now the real speculation begins—does that mean that eventually all of the aforementioned surrounding areas in Kansas and Missouri will receive the Google Fiber network? Could further outlying college towns like Lawrence, Kan. and Columbia. Mo. eventually get gig access? Or does it mean that this network will be rolled out nationwide and will be coming to a city near you in the next few years? Only time will tell. And if history is any guide, it is doubtful Google will drop many hints before it makes a definitive announcement on the future of their fiber project. But just because these three areas were left undefined doesn't mean that Kansas City isn't abuzz about the potential that Google Fiber will bring. Certainly, the established players are shaking in their boots about what this could mean for their businesses, but the real winners here will be the citizens of Kansas City.

Her long, lean body, unique flexibility and unremitting focus have given her an edge in the highly structured art form.
"It's so technical and precise, but I feel like myself when I do ballet," she said.
In February, she auditioned for the five-week intensive summer training program at Pacific Northwest Ballet in
"I was very excited," she said. "It was very intense and a lot of pressure."
Like many young dancers, Caroline was entranced by her first experience of "The Nutcracker" at the Carolina Ballet when she was two. Her mother Elizabeth Henderson recalled Caroline walking around in a leotard at home and mimicking ballet dancers since that day.
"Since she was a little girl, it's always been a part of her personality to be focused and conscientious," she said. "It's been her heart to do this since she was little, so it's great to see her have an opportunity to do what she loves."
UNCSA is a highly competitive program, with fewer than 20 ninth graders accepted with a ratio of 40 percent in-state and 60 percent out-of-state students. The program awards the high school diploma with concentrations in ballet and contemporary dance and the bachelor of fine arts and the undergraduate arts certificate with concentrations in ballet and contemporary dance. Pacific Northwest Ballet's summer program only accepts 200 students between the ages of 12 and 18. Although her talent makes each plie and port de bras seem effortless, Caroline refines her skill with a series of weekly classes and lessons in Swansboro and travels to Chapel Hill once a month for private lessons. Along with studying and homework assignments, Caroline has learned to balance her responsibilities.
"I dance about 13 to 15 hours a week after school, and sometimes Saturdays and Sundays with private lessons," Caroline said.
"We're thrilled by it but not surprised," Williams said. "She has the perfect ballet body and she has the focus, musicality and drive to go with it."
At the academy, Caroline along and other students have learned to never be satisfied with anything but their best effort and never compete with others.
"You could not play basketball if you just showed up for the game," Williams said. "It's like any other avenue, so you have to give it 100 percent to get to the top and she is already at the top by being accepted into the program."
"She wrote in her application to the school of the arts program that she often wondered how something so painful could be so beautiful,"
At The School of Dance, students enroll in a full academic course load every term, along with a heavy schedule of arts classes. They spend most evenings and weekends rehearsing, producing, and performing their craft as they perfect each movement. Caroline said that she is thankful to be part of program where academics and dance are combined.
"My academics and education is very important to me," Caroline said. "There are days when I'm doing homework until … I will be in a community of dancers there so teachers understand that, but I don't want them to be easy on me."
Despite her hard work, Caroline still enjoy time to read and visits to the beach as her source of relaxation. But when her time off is over, it's back to work for the eager ballerina. When she leaves her hometown and family for
"I plan to work very hard to make sure I get the most out of my training," she said.

The dogs rescued from a Bronx dog fighter's basement last year are finally getting justice. Raul Sanchez, who pleaded guilty to dog fighting a few weeks ago, is now heading to prison.
Last week a judge sentenced Sanchez to one to three years for animal fighting, one year for animal cruelty and one year for criminal possession of a weapon. (Sanchez will serve these sentences concurrently.)
He's also been slapped with a ban on keeping animals for the duration of his parole. Sanchez waived his right to appeal.
We hope Sanchez's sentence serves as a reminder to dog fighters that their crimes against innocent animals carry serious consequences.
What a measly slap on the wrist for this guy! He'll be out in a year and when parole is over he'll be abusing dogs again. Not good! How about making him pay for the dogs' care while they heal and also their board and care while they wait for adoption? Why should our overcrowded shelters be made to carry the load made worse by criminals like this creep? For many shelters overcrowding means euthanasia for more animals. So he not only killed his own dogs, he's killing future dogs by denying them the opportunity to be adopted! But more violence is not the answer; education is!
I agree with many of the comment.and to think that these sentences will be served in currently is outrageous. One to three years is nowhere close to what he should have been sentenced to for over 50 dogs being fought in the home.
Until the punishment fits the crime, the mutants who fight dogs will not be deterred. A few years for running an organized dog fighting ring is a slap on the wrist!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS SOCIETY when there's a stiffer sentence for illegally copying a video or a music track than for systematically torturing and killing animals?????????????????
Some people are so heartless!!! It hurts my heart to think of these innocent animals that feel physical & mental abuse just as we as humans! Dear Jesus please be with these cruel people & show them their wrong hateful behaviers!! Remind them that we are supposed to take care of these animals not abuse them!! My prayers are with these puppies.. Thank you ASPCA for helping give these puppies a voice!
Some say this is a start, but this is just a slap on the wrist. Other dog fighters are just sitting around laughing at the amount of time he will have to serve in jail. They are not scarred of serving 1-3 years in jail. Fine them big time, money to go to SPCA, sentence to start at 5 years. All this pain they cause needs to hurt them!
Certainly sentencing should be harsher but lets be hopeful that this person learns and understands what he was doing.I know and have seen some incredible programs where prisoners work and train dogs to make them ready for service work with people that have disabilities. Lets hope this is what comes out of it..I understand Michael Vick has done wonderful work now that he gets it..
I think anyone that thinks they can hurt a animal should get the death sentence.
happy to hear he was sentenced but he will be out next week and he will definitely get other animals - this is nothing for these non-humans - dog fighting is their livelihood, their life and their jobs because they are too stupid to get a real job and earn money the right way - WE NEED STRONGER SENTENCES 3 years at least and all 3 served in a real prison, not club med and if they do it again 5 years and a fine. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work.
It is nowhere near enough. It is past time for much harsher sentences and ban them from owning animals for LIFE.
Anyone participating in this kind of activity has no empathy for other living things. The people who torture cats or other small animals have nothing stopping them from moving on to human targets. If the compassion isn't there for an innocent pet, you can bet there wont be for a person who has wronged them. Anyone who is found guilty of animal cruelty should be subjected to therapy.

The state constitution prohibits marriage between same-sex couples. Amended in 2004 to say: "(a) This state shall recognize as marriage only the union of man and woman. Marriages between persons of the same sex are prohibited in This state. (b) No union between persons of the same sex shall be recognized by This state as entitled to the benefits of marriage. This state shall not give effect to any public act, record, or judicial proceeding of any other state or jurisdiction respecting a relationship between persons of the same sex that is treated as a marriage under the laws of such other state or jurisdiction. The courts of This state shall have no jurisdiction to grant a divorce or separate maintenance with respect to any such relationship or otherwise to consider or rule on any of the parties' respective rights arising as a result of or in connection with such relationship."
State statute prohibits marriage between same-sex couples. See Georgia Annotated Code § 19-3-3.1.
All government employees are protected by the U.S. Constitution against irrational discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity. In addition, some measure of protection already exists under Title VII based on gender, which has been held to include gender identity and expression.
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and several courts have interpreted Title VII to protect transgender employees, and the EEOC has interpreted Title VII to cover sexual orientation discrimination. The Supreme Court has held that the EEOC's interpretations of Title VII are entitled to "great deference."

Numerous second-parent adoptions have been granted in lower courts in some jurisdictions.Results likely vary by county and by judge. Anyone considering petitioning for a second parent adoption should contact, or have their counsel contact, Lambda Legal.
Results vary by county and by judge. Anyone considering petitioning for a second parent adoption should contact, or have their counsel contact, Lambda Legal. State statute authorizes relinquishment of custody to a "third party" by contract, which statute was held to allow joint custody decision. See O.C.G.A. §19-7-1(b); Weiss v.

Guest blog by Andrew Binovi, ASPCA Federal Legislative Manager
With all the political gridlock in Washington D.C., it seems that Congress has nearly ground to a complete halt. So it was very exciting late yesterday when the U.S. Senate considered two important measures to help animals in need!
First, the Senate took up the cause of canine heroes who have served in our military and passed a provision that streamlines the adoption process for retired military dogs and authorizes the Department of Defense to provide veterinary care in the animals' retirement without any cost to American taxpayers. Military dogs perform dangerous, critical tasks, and it is our duty to honor these dogs and ensure they are cared for after their service is complete. The House passed similar language in their version of the military bill earlier this year.
Then, just moments later, the Senate passed the Animal Fighting Spectator Prohibition Act by a unanimous voice vote. This bill, introduced by Sens. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) and Mark Kirk (R-IL), along with Sens. Maria Cantwell (D-WA) and Scott Brown (R-MA), will give law enforcement additional tools to crack down on animal fighting. The legislation will make it a federal offense to attend an organized animal fight and will impose additional penalties for taking minors to animal fights.
Take Action!
We are encouraged that in the twilight hours of this Congress, animals in need have not been forgotten by federal lawmakers. Our team has been working around the clock with members of Congress to ensure passage of both bills, but we still need your help. Please call your representative and ask him or her to support the Animal Fighting Spectator Prohibition Act in the House. Animals victimized in this grisly blood sport are in desperate need—and they are counting on us to get the job done!
I hope in the bill that was passed invovling MWD (military working dogs) helps bring them home instead of them being considered surplus equiptment. I would love to adopt one of these wonderful hero dogs. But the battle that has to be fought to get them back home is wrong. They are soldiers not surplus equiptment.
Good news! It is heartening to see so many people who care as I do. We need to see better legislation to protect our fellow living creatures, and the voiceless need it all the more. For the naysayers, animal abuse is proven to be directly related to violence and criminal behavior in humans, it is foolish to dismiss it. Also, those of us who are active are active in more than one arena, depending on our abilities, talents and passions. My charities and causes are the abuse and neglect of children and animals. If you have no regard for animals or believe other things are more important, why are you on the SPCA site and not volunteering in what you believe in? Or, stay on and educate yourself to care and become a better person. I respect the work of all who are volunteering and donating for a better world, in whatever way they are drawn to. For my fellow animal lovers, please, take a moment to think of one more thing - Along with our pets, there are millions of other animals being tortured and abused. To those who eat meat (I do), consider carefully where you are getting it from. I have completely changed where I shop and purchase my meat and dairy from. The mass stock animal market is doing horrendous things, and I am not even talking about the slaughterhouse, that is where many of these animals receive their "mercy". The practices by the large industrial "farms" are horrendous and inexcusable. I buy from small, local meat and dairy sources that I can personally visit or research, and know these animals have the proper food, medical care, treatment and space to live in. They may not be pets, but they are living beings, and deserve to be treated with decency and respect as such. Please educate yourself, if you do, you will not want to be part of this. I may not be able to stop it, but these people will NOT get money from me. The practices being accepted nationwide should be criminal, and I hope for the day when they are. To all of you, it is encouraging to see so many who care. However you do it, keep up whatever you do to help the voiceless neglected and abused that share your community, and I may not know you but I appreciate you.
Thank you now lets pass laws that they ban gas chambers in all shelters too.
This is excellent news. I gave a presentation on this topic for a political science class. Military dogs have a very tough and sad history, and I am THRILLED that the US is willing to give more kindness to canine heroes. THANK YOU!
**Yes- please stop the wolf hunt, hunting wolves is barbaric-as a response to the person who wrote in all caps.

The console launched in Japan on March 4, 2000. After this final batch of PS2s, customers will have to hunt for used hardware to acquire the system. New games for the console — like the recently announced expansion, Final Fantasy XI: Seekers of Adoulin, coming in March — will still get made.
Over 150 million PS2s have sold worldwide, and Sony will continue to sell them in regions outside Japan, at least for now. The system only launched in Brazil in 2009.

The Marzocchi Corsa was designed for cross country riding. The Corsa was designed using Marzocchi's AER system. The advantages of an air system sealed inside the stanchion tube and of a negative coil spring combined into one system is smoothness and light weight. Lockout your fork as you head up a steep incline for ultimate pedaling efficiency. The Corsa SL LR glides along hilly trails and absorbs bumps and small obstacles with ease, all to produce a smooth comfortable ride. The Uppers feature a Gold Marzocchi Race coating. The hard anodized, low friction race coating with Teflon impregnation increases small bump sensitivity and overall durability of all sliding parts (stanchion surface, seals, bushings.) Marzocchi has updated the bushings. The new bushings feature vertical slots for oil fluid and lubrication. The fitted design process forms itself to the internal casting machine seat. The goal is to have the best feeling, most supple feel between the stanchions and the casting.
