At a Glance
Why Get Tested?
To determine the concentration of cyclosporine in your blood in order to establish a dosing regimen, maintain therapeutic levels, and detect toxic levels
When to Get Tested?
As soon as cyclosporine therapy begins, usually daily or 2-3 times a week, and periodically after that as the dose is adjusted or maintained
Sample Required?
A blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm
Test Preparation Needed?
None. Typically drawn 12 hours after the last dose; on mornings when you are scheduled to have your cyclosporine level checked, do not take the medicine until after your blood is drawn.
The Test Sample
What is being tested?
Cyclosporine is an immunosuppressant drug used to reduce the body's natural defenses. This test measures the amount of cyclosporine in the blood.
When people undergo an organ transplant, their immune system recognizes the graft as "foreign" and will begin to attack it just as it would any invasive bacteria or virus. Cyclosporine diminishes the ability of certain white blood cells in the immune system to respond to this foreign tissue. The transplanted organ then has a better chance of survival and will not be as easily rejected by the transplant recipient's immune system. Cyclosporine is used routinely in the transplantation of kidney, heart, liver, and other organs.
The immunosuppressant qualities of cyclosporine have also been found to be useful in treating symptoms of some autoimmune and other disorders. These conditions are characterized by the immune system reacting to the body's own cells or tissue. Cyclosporine helps to control the immune response in these cases, decreasing the severity of symptoms. Some examples of these conditions include rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, aplastic anemia, and Crohn disease.
When the symptoms in these cases are judged to be severe, extensive, and disabling, cyclosporine may be prescribed. Usually, the symptoms have not diminished with other treatments or medications. Cyclosporine is used with caution in these cases and needs to be carefully monitored with blood tests.
Testing cyclosporine levels in the blood can help ensure that drug levels are in a range that will be therapeutic. If the level is too low, organ rejection may occur (in the case of transplantation) or symptoms may reappear (autoimmune cases). It is also important to ensure that the level is not too high and will not result in toxicity.
How is the sample collected for testing?
A blood sample is obtained by inserting a needle into a vein in the arm.
NOTE: If undergoing medical tests makes you or someone you care for anxious, embarrassed, or even difficult to manage, you might consider reading one or more of the following articles: Coping with Test Pain, Discomfort, and Anxiety, Tips on Blood Testing, Tips to Help Children through Their Medical Tests, and Tips to Help the Elderly through Their Medical Tests.
Another article, Follow That Sample, provides a glimpse at the collection and processing of a blood sample and throat culture.
Is any test preparation needed to ensure the quality of the sample?
No test preparation is needed. Samples are typically drawn 12 hours after the last dose. On mornings when someone is scheduled to have their cyclosporine level checked, the person should not take the medicine until after their blood is drawn.

I don't know if I'm getting anti-social or what, but we are sure getting a lot of aggravating critters in our neighborhood.
We seem to have become a home away from home for several varmints.
One that I find especially annoying is the crows.
Boy, are they noisy!
Especially on Saturday mornings, when I've a mind to sleep a little bit late.
And they're getting braver. Wednesday evening, I went outside to get Biffy to the curb – yes, yes, I know it's no longer Biffy.
But that's the easiest way to say "I'm going out to take old magazines and newspapers to the curb. And milk containers and Coke and ginger ale bottles."
See? It's just easier to say, "I'm taking Biffy to the curb."
Anyway, I'll be dawggone if a crow didn't swoop down toward me, cawing at the top of his voice. He was close enough that I ducked.
Off in the distance I could hear his brothers cawing and laughing and egging him on.
Anyhow, I hate crows.
I would put me up a scarecrow but we had a neighbor who did that, and we've laughed ever since about how the crows would come and sit on the scarecrow's shoulders and "Caw, Caw, Caw."
They might as well have said "Ha Ha Ha" and maybe they were in crow-talk.
I put those winged varmints right in the category with squirrels.
At any given moment I can look out my kitchen window and see five or six squirrels scooting around the patio and the yard…under the pecan, walnut, hickory and oak trees.
Heck, you'd think they were pets. They are surely not afraid of humans.
When I walk by one with a pecan in his paws, he just looks up and goes back to his pecan.
As is often the case, there is an exception to the squirrel rule.
One of the furry varmints that has been around our yard for the longest time has no tail.
What happened, I know not. But we've sort of adopted him (or her) and nicknamed him "Tailess."
"Tailess" is the one that comes up on the lanai and eats his ill-gotten gains, taking his own good time, and then hops off like a rabbit.
We've decided that the tail of a squirrel is what gives him balance and helps him streak across the yard. But "Tailess" has to hop and he's pretty wobbly at that. He actually moves more like a rabbit.
And believe it or not, we have a rabbit that lives under the neighbor's outside building. Or at least that's where he heads when we startle him in the yard.
I keep telling the kids that it's highly unlikely that there's just one rabbit, but we've only seen one at a time.
Those same children keep telling me that I need to get a pet … a cat or a dog.
But why should I?
I've already got a lot of animals keeping me company and I don't have to feed them or take them to the vet or worry about them when I'm at work.
But truth to tell, I wouldn't mind if the squirrels and crows would go south for the winter.
It's me again – email@example.com.

Results vs. Indiana University-PA (2007-03-08 14:00:00)
March 8, 2007
|Falcons split with IUP
|Thursday, 08 March 2007
Misenheimer - Softball split a non-conference double header today with Indiana University - PA. In game one the Falcons drew first blood as they scored in the bottom of the third. Freshman Chelsey Morton reached first on a single, moved to second on a past ball, stole third, and made it safely home as an errant throw found its way to left field. The Crimson Hawks answered back in the top of the fourth with a single, followed by a homerun. The score remained 2-1 as neither team was able to push another run across. Junior Dacia Ijames gave up two runs on four hits, walked one, and struck out four in five innings of work. Morton finished the game giving up one hit and striking out one.
Game two saw IUP jump out to an early lead in the top of the first with a run scoring on a past ball. The Falcons responded with two runs of their own in the bottom of the first as Stephanie Bethea, Ijames, and Jamie Cassidy each had base hits. In the bottom of the second, Pfeiffer took advantage of errors as they rallied up 6 runs on just 2 hits. IUP scored twice in the top of the sixth, but the Falcons were able to hold on to an 8-4 victory behind the strong pitching performance of Amanda Beck. Beck surrendered one earned run on six hits, walked two, and struck out eight.
Pfeiffer will next be in action Saturday, March 10th as they host conference rival Anderson. First pitch is slated for 2 o'clock

Saracens have developed a penchant for poaching South Africa's forgotten men and turning them into English Premiership superstars.
Saracens' most recent acquisition, Sharks centre Brad Barritt, follows after they sealed the deal to bring Springbok openside flanker Wikus van Heerden to Vicarage Road earlier this year.
Prior to that, Saracens swooped for the Stormers tighthead prop Cobus Visagie, who has dominated opponents throughout his career there, Neil de Kock, who is the current Premiership Player of the Year and Brent Russell, who shone after injury had curtailed his involvement early in the 2008/09 season.
Saracens are building a formidable team with a distinctly South African flavour. The most disconcerting thing from a South African perspective is that these players who are driving their push for domestic and European silverware are in the prime of their careers and should be strengthening our domestic game and challenging for Springbok places.
Barritt, 21, becomes the most prominent and talented of a growing list of young South African players seeking to further their careers abroad. His transfer was engineered by Saracens director of rugby, Eddie Jones, who made his initial approach in the latter stages of the Super 14.
At the time, Barritt was unable to command a place in the starting line-up and was then inexplicably axed for their semi-final against the Blues, with Frans Steyn favoured at inside centre. Barritt, however, insists that that treatment had no bearing on his decision to leave.
"People may think that but I've got no sour feelings towards the Sharks for the way I was treated," he told keo.co.za. "John Plumtree told me I would be the number one 12 [for the Currie Cup and 2009 Super 14]. The coaching staff said that after the Super 14 they'd seen that they may have made a mistake in leaving me out and were very keen to have me stay.
"There's nothing negative or no resentment in me towards the Sharks or South Africa," he continued. "This is just an opportunity for a young player like me to learn and improve in different conditions. I haven't experienced the European style of play and going over there can only refine my game. That's my thinking. By stepping out of a comfort zone and putting myself into a situation that forces me to adapt can only make me a better player."
Barritt, whose grandparents are both English and whose parents carry British passports, would be eligible for England selection immediately. The reality is that Barritt could well line up for England at Twickenham against the Springboks on November 22, as well as tour the Republic with the British & Irish Lions in 2009.
The RFU are fully aware of his ability, seen from the fact that they invited him to an England U19 training camp while he was in Bath considering the option of studying and playing for Bath University in 2004.
Barritt, however, refuted the suggestion that he was targeting a future with England.
"That's being very presumptuous and thinking too far ahead," he said. "I'm a South African boy and [playing for the Springboks] will be a dream come true if it were to happen. I would jump at the opportunity.
"What's more, by going there with intentions of playing for England I will fall short. My short-term goal is to establish myself with Saracens. If in future an opportunity arises with England, I'll cross that bridge then."
Barritt is acutely aware Springbok coach Peter de Villiers has regularly voiced his preference for locally based players and that the move could jeopardise a Springbok call-up in future.
"Rugby has become a global game. If there's an opportunity for a guy in Europe that he thinks can better him as a player, I don't think it should be held against him," was his response when asked if he knew he was taking a step back in the Springbok pecking order. "In my case it's not me being disloyal in any way. I determine my own future and it's a choice I made for the betterment of myself.
"I played under Peter [De Villiers] at U21 level and with the Emerging Springboks last year and I really enjoyed the atmosphere he created and his management style. I've got no ill feelings towards Peter for not selecting me. Every coach has his preferences. But if there is a role for me in future then I'd love nothing more than to play for my country."
Barritt's loss is a massive one for South African rugby. Ninety-eight cap Springbok Percy Montgomery told this website's Mark Keohane that Barritt would be the first player he'd select in his backline, such was his ability and organisational skills.
But you can bank on the fact that he won't be the last prominent player to head to Saracens.
Investment group SAIL has strong ties with all of the 'Big Five' provincial unions, particularly the Bulls, and are a major investor in Saracens. They've been known to be at the forefront of transfer negotiations for some top South African players to European clubs. Combine this with Jones's knowledge of and familiarity with South Africa's elite players, gained through a stint as a technical adviser to the Springboks in 2006, and Saracens' future could feature many more Barritt-like coups.

WP coach Allister Coetzee has selected Damian de Allende at No 12 for Saturday's Currie Cup final against the Sharks.
De Allende replaces Marcel Brache in this crucial position; the first time he will partner Juan de Jongh in midfield. This is the only change made by Coetzee following last week's semi-final win against the Golden Lions.
A season-ending injury to Ederies Arendse allowed De Allende to come into the squad, and a string of strong performances eventually saw him securing a starting berth on the wing during the latter half of the season.
Coetzee feels that the powerful player is good enough to start at No 12 in the most important game of the Currie Cup season. It's clear that the slightly-built Brache does not fit the requirement for a clash of this nature.
'Marcel will still have a job to do from the bench, but we've gone with Damian to start because we need somebody who can front up physically in that position,' said the Province coach.
'He has explosive pace and is a good ball carrier. He has good core skills and is a solid defender. Whenever he has played for us, he has made a massive impression. He did that again last week; his contribution was telling.'
Coetzee doesn't feel that the fact that De Allende hasn't played at No 12 at this level will count against him. De Allende's inexperience is also not viewed as a shortcoming.
'The conditions underfoot will be heavy, and Damian is the player we need for these conditions. He's young but he's good enough to be handed this opportunity.
'He has played in that position for the WP U21s before. He will also have some experienced players around him like Juan and Bryan Habana. Damian knows what's required of him in that position, he knows our systems having been involved for some time.'
Gio Aplon is retained at fullback despite the superior kicking game of Joe Pietersen. Coetzee explained that it would help to have Aplon's left boot complementing Demetri Catrakilis's right in what should be a big tussle for territory.
Former Springbok prop Deon Carstens and provincial veteran Brok Harris are also named on the bench, with younger front rowers in Frans Malherbe and Steven Kitshoff backed to start. The WP coaches are hoping that this will allow the team to finish strongly.
Western Province – 15 Gio Aplon, 14 Gerhard van den Heever, 13 Juan de Jongh, 12 Damian de Allende, 11 Bryan Habana, 10 Demetri Catrakilis, 9 Nic Groom, 8 Duane Vermeulen, 7 Don Armand, 6 Deon Fourie (c), 5 De Kock Steenkamp, 4 Eben Etzebeth, 3 Frans Malherbe, 2 Scarra Ntubeni, 1 Steven Kitshoff.
Subs: 16 Deon Carstens, 17 Brok Harris, 18 Wilhelm van der Sluys, 19 Jebb Sinclair, 20 Louis Schreuder, 21 Marcel Brache, 22 Joe Pietersen.

According to the fictional scriptures this "loving parent" made numerous death threats and acted on the same. Just a few examples; drowning his children, killing the Egyptian first born, annihilating the peoples of Canaan, burning Sodom and Gomorrah, and killing Uzzah for touching the "Ark of the Covenant."
The "god" described in the Torah sounds more like someone who collects guns and uses them on a regular basis to kill people, wears a hood while burning crosses in the yards of those who are different, subjugates and abuses women, and lives off of money he beats out of his kids (tithes and offerings). The depiction of "god" as a refined man in a halo of light is very erroneous. The white robes part is accurate but artists need to add a white hood. When not depicted in robes/bedsheets it would be more accurate to depict "god" as a dude with racist tattoos, a shaved head, holding a rifle in one hand, and a hangman's noose in the other. This "god" is not a being I would worship and I am amazed that people actually admit to believing in such a racist deity.

We loathe giving Aflac any more media attention than they have already received, but we can't keep our mouths shut about the recent PR stunt they pulled. If you haven't yet heard, Aflac recently let a duck loose into a busy New York City subway station and began tweeting about it, ruffling our feathers in the process! The duck, representing their famed mascot, drew quite a bit of attention—but at what cost?
NYC subway stations are noisy, crowded, and let's face it, pretty dirty places. The hazards that could have harmed our small feathered friend are too numerous to count. We're appalled that Aflac would pull such a stunt.
Do you think this PR stunt went too far? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
I hope I remembered my subway pass. #IMadeAComeback#NYChttp://t.co/nyMicqRQH x— Aflac Duck (@aflacduck) September 23, 2013

Unbelievable that they didn't take a second to think about how the poor duck would feel in that environment. Thankful I don't have Aflac. Imbeciles.
What a bad move indeed. Seriously they could not photoshop something. That poor animal could have been hurt or worse.
I think Aflac, should get their PR from paying people for disability payments, that in it self would raise people's opinion of the company....... They don't have to put an innocent creatures life in danger. shame on Aflac for being immature and for another stupid stunt against animals.
Clearly they aren't concerned with the welfare of any animal. Sick.
and who can we contact at Aflac and let them know that this is unacceptable? address? name? This is disgusting!
Horrible!!! Their little hearts beat out of their chests with such chaos. Aflac should be prosecuted to the max. for this stunt....
This poor duck must have been terrified. Aflac should not be allowed to have possession of a duck.
They just made my insurance decisions that much easier - I would never consider Aflac.
Stupid to put an animals in harm's way just for money...would NEVER buy AFLAC insurance for this reason alone

You should wait until your dog is 1 year of age before he is neutered. He needs his testicles that produce a growth hormone so that his bone density is as good as it can be by the time he is neutered.5/7/2015 6:28:05 PM

From your questions, I can tell you have not done much if any research on the breed and have not spent enough time with the breed itself face to face. I would highly suggest spending time with this breed before considering adopting a dog. 1) No, Pedigree is not a good brand of food at all, it is one of the worst. A high quality, grain-free dog food is the best food to feed your dog. Bags will cost an average of $65.00 - $85.00 per bag.4/19/2015 3:23:15 PM
2) California's summer's will be very hard on this breed, they will need to be inside with A.C at all times and exercised in the evening/early morning so they do not over-heat. 3) If you are in school, then you do not have the time for a dog right now. Focus on your studies and when you have a job with a schedule that allows you to go home and let your dog out to do it's business. 5) The bigger the dog, the bigger the vet costs. St. Bernard's are huge dogs and vet costs will be between 2 - 3 x more compared to an average sized dog such as Golden Retriever. 5) The St. Bernard sheds a lot of hair, I would consider them no less then an 8 on that scale depending on if it is shedding season or not.4/19/2015 3:23:27 PM

First off, take your dog off the Eukanuba right now! She should be on a grain-free, large breed puppy food. Acana, Orijen, Taste of the Wild, Merrick all have grain-free, large breed puppy foods that are the best thing for your dog. Secondly, you do not want to spay her until she is at least a year old, but I would wait until 12 - 14 months. Giant breed dogs need to be kept intact until they are at least a year old so that their bodies can use the hormones that come from their sexual organs for as long as possible before being spayed or neutered. You can switch her to adult food at a year and a half old.3/6/2015 9:33:20 AM
We just lost our 11-1/2 year old St. Bernard, Riley, to a degenerative neurological disorder. Needless to say I am absolutely heartbroken. But he lived longer than the typical St. Bernard, which we credit to feeding him NutriSource grain free dog food. Also, the supplements in dog food, such as glucosamine and condroitan, are typically not in an amount that would be beneficial. You're better off with a separate supplement that your vet can recommend. Good luck with your baby! 4/16/2015 10:25:13 PM
I just loss my baby Bella. I'm heart broken. I have had several pets in the past but Bella was always with me. It has been 3 weeks and still hate coming home at night and miss her very much....please tell me it will get better over time. I know someday want another baby girl. This breed of dog is one of the most loving that you can ever have with kids. I think I'm having a harder time than them with the loss...5/8/2015 12:27:08 AM

For a short answer, no. You should not be allowing your two dogs to breed. They should be spayed and neutered. Unless you are a reputable, knowledgeable, and qualified breeder, or aspiring to be one, you should not be breeding. The reason why there are so many breeds in the world is so that in truth, you do not have to mix breeds together. By doing so, you are allowing the over-population of dogs to continue to rise and you in-turn are now a Back Yard Breeder. Which is someone who does not care about the dogs they breed, they think their dogs are cute and so they will make cute puppies and make money off of it.11/17/2014 7:53:53 PM
St. Bernard's and Great Pyrenees' are beautiful dogs and because they are giant breed dogs, their breeding needs to be even more closely monitored because of health reasons. Unless your dogs are of impeccable breeding, have passed all health tests for the breed, have a great temperament and have titles in any/all of the categories: confirmation (showing), obedience, work and/or sport then your dog should not be bred. Since your dogs have been breeding, there is a very good chance that your female is pregnant. Taking her to the vet and getting an E-spay is the best thing. She will be fixed and you can bring our male in to get fixed as well.11/17/2014 7:54:05 PM
i am the one who asked the question and thank you people for your answers, i took them to the vet today and found out that my female dog was actually... (idk the wording for it) but she's incapable of having puppies, as for the male, i have set up and appointment for him to be... (again i dont know the wording for it) unable to produce puppies as well11/18/2014 3:05:48 PM
The correct words you are looking for are spayed and neutered. Thank you for doing so, it is much healthier for your dogs and will give dogs/puppies whom are in shelters and rescues a better chance at finding a home.11/18/2014 8:34:11 PM
Any dog can attack. No matter the age, breed(s), or size. However, the St. Bernard is one of the dog's considered to be a gentle giant, but that does not mean that he/she can not become aggressive towards people/other dogs/other animals. The St. Bernard that is well bred, well trained and socialized properly will be an excellent family member and a great canine companion. But the St. Bernard whom is badly bred, not socialized properly and not trained can become aggressive with people, dogs and/or other animals.8/27/2014 10:16:53 AM
The movie 'Cujo' star's a St. Bernard that has rabies and attacks several people in the movie. Some people whom have seen the movie will feel fear when they see a St. Bernard because of the movie. The problem with that is that the energy of the person changes and the dog feels fear from the human and feels like he/she needs to protect him/herself and may turn aggressive because of that. If you are thinking of getting a St. Bernard, please get one from a qualified, dedicated and knowledgeable breeder that breeds for sound temperament and health. Pain can be another reason why dogs become aggressive all of a sudden, so please make sure if there are any sudden behavioral problems to take your dog to a vet a.s.a.p.8/27/2014 10:17:01 AM
At Bernard's are very protective of family. Bella was gentle but if threaten or a threat of harm made by a dog she would confront and stand her ground. Actually protected my young children from a German Shepard about to go after my children. Stopped it cold.. If you were nice to her no problem but pose a threat and gave you warning that she wasn't backing down..she was the social butterfly of the neighborhood and everyone loved her!5/8/2015 12:33:10 AM
Unless you are a responsible, dedicated and knowledgeable breeder, you shouldn't be breeding. If you are an aspiring St. Bernard breeder, then go to some dog shows and get in contact with a responsible/qualified breeder in your area. You MUST do your research with any breed, but especially with the St. Bernard as they have so many health issues that can be devastating for the breed/dog. Unless your male is of impeccable breeding and has gone through extensive health tests, his conformation/title career should have already started by now. Responsible and dedicated breeder's do not stud their males until they are titled in conformation and/or draft, therapy, weight pulling and obedience. Health checks can not be finished until the dog is two years old. On average, two years is the earliest a responsible, qualified, knowledgeable, and dedicated breeder will start using their male for breeding purposes. Please get your dog neutered if you do not wish to breed responsibly.8/20/2014 5:47:41 PM
Contact your local positive reinforcement trainer and enroll him/her in some puppy training classes.5/1/2014 6:15:25 PM
Bullmastiff maybe? If you don't know who your puppy's parents are, then I highly doubt it's a purebred puppy. He is most likely a mixed breed, but it's possible that he's PART St. Bernard. Find his parents, and you will be able to get a better idea of what breed(s) he is.
If you want to look through all of the purebreds anyway, to see if you spot one like him - here - have fun - this is ALL of the different dog breeds:
http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/abc.htm1/30/2014 12:54:12 AM
Any behavioral differences means a trip to the vet is needed.5/1/2014 6:16:07 PM
If you are looking for the largest litter recorded for the St.Bernard, the number would be 14 puppies.7/16/2014 2:50:18 PM
It can really vary! If you get a spring puppy he could easily be losing his puppy fur already by 4 or 5 months, depending on your climate... But alot of my Saints have kept some of that soft fur up to a year old! And of course, the rough coat (long haired) guys will shed a lot more noticeably than the smooth!2/26/2013 5:02:07 PM
EXCERSISE!!! LOL No, really, don't just feed him a special diet and expect it to work. It might, but you'll have alot more success if you combine diet with a brisk walk every day too. Most dog food brands carry a low fat option. Or try just cutting back on the amount you give him! Some dogs don't know when to stop!2/26/2013 5:05:16 PM
Saint LOVE the cold, so that won't be a problem!!! Just make sure a young pup has a place to go, as they shouldn't be out in constant cold like that. But Saints are very easy-going, eager to please pooches. They can be a little lazy, especially the boys! I'd recommend getting a puppy so you can train him for exactly what you have in mind. Great Pyrenees, one of the Saints ancestors, make great guard dogs as well.2/26/2013 5:07:45 PM
It really depends on your specific Saint, and the breeder's lines. Some lines develop alot slower but are the biggest in the end. The general rule is well over 100 lbs by nine months, so figure, around 80 lbs at half a year.2/26/2013 5:10:07 PM
This is probably too late if your Saint was pregnant when you asked the question, but here's how I've found. Some girls hide their pregnancy more than others. If she is a first time mother, her nipples will begin to swell noticeably for sure by 7 or 8 weeks. I can feel my girl's abdomens (gently) at around 4 - 5 weeks and usually tell pretty definitely where she's at, but that's come with 10 years of breeding. Unless she is only having 2 or 3 pups, she will eventually be bulging beyond doubt. But until the last week or two, you might just have to keep your fingers crossed and wait and see! 2/26/2013 4:59:52 PM

Hi there, I have a 10 year old Saint with a dry nose with cracks in it, and he has had that all his life since he was an adult so nothing to worry about really hasn't affected his health in any way.11/27/2012 10:34:42 PM
Yep, common with some of mine too. Try triple antibiotic. 2/26/2013 5:12:02 PM
Ask your vet to check with a dermatologist. Our 7 year old Saint had the same problem, we thought it was fine until it broke open and bleed all over. Our vet checked with a dermatologist who said it's a common dermatology problem only related to Saints. Our baby has been on a lot of medication and it's healing beautifully.
Our vet was mos concerned about where it had split open (just like yours). Apparently the area where it's split open can cause A LOT of major issues!!
Please get your pup checked again, it's worth it!! 4/30/2014 6:35:50 PM
Try using Carmex as much as possible. That improved both our St's noses but they will lick it off just keep putting it on.6/7/2014 1:09:30 AM
Use Carmex as often as possible. They will lick it off but just keep applying. It's something that has to be done forever but it does improve the problem 6/7/2014 1:15:43 AM
We took a St. Bernard in when she was 2. It was really hard at first because she must not have been socialized very well. She was extremely shy. She was very stubborn in her ways and chases cars as well. But, we love her and still have her. She is now 10 and was a great addition to our family!10/22/2012 2:14:00 PM
saints are usually a one family dog. This will take some time of adjustment for both you and the pup. They are so worth it. You may feel like you are dealing with a difficult pet. Try to understand they have left their "pack" and are in a new one. Good luck11/15/2012 9:49:39 PM
It depends so much on her previous home! Saints are very loyal, so you'll need to earn her loyalty and affection. But oh my yes, it can be done!!! Just give her lots of love!2/26/2013 5:13:44 PM
I always let my Saints have free choice ( always have food available to them) some people think they will just eat and eat but once they learn its always there they will actually eat less because they will only eat what they want other than trying to eat all you give them. Good luck with your baby!9/23/2012 12:49:55 AM
When I send my new pups home at around 8 - 9 weeks, they are doing three meals a day. I would think by 14 they could be at two. I also free feed my adults. Saints can be prone to bloat, and one cause is eating too much too fast at one time. So if they can free feed, they just snack a little here and there through out the day. Feed them at head level!2/26/2013 5:16:16 PM
My Saint Bernard puppy does and I was informed by the breeder that she is indeed fully show marked - I think they are beautiful with freckles!
Thanks, best of luck with your puppy. Our dog is a true love.9/12/2012 12:23:31 PM
it is acceptable but not preferred in show dogs.10/27/2012 11:25:19 PM
I was told by a show breeder that freckles on the face are not so disqualifying as on the legs...2/26/2013 5:17:16 PM
My puppys older and her coat appears to be changing :) I an sure his/her coat will turn reddy brown 9/12/2012 5:48:10 AM
Saint puppies are born almost black, and slowly get lighter as they grow. At 8 weeks their true colors are starting to come out, but you won't really know until he loses his puppy coat. If both parents were reddish/brown, good chance your baby will too.2/26/2013 5:19:02 PM
Shedding is normal, but the odor can be dirty ears or infection. Is your St. Bernards ears really stinky?10/27/2012 11:28:08 PM
If he's drooling alot that wet fur can get so smelly! It can also make hot spots around his neck,collar etc, so watch really carefully for that ,especially when its hot outside2/26/2013 5:21:01 PM
Wow! That's a big question! I'd recommend you check out the SBCA website, get some good books on basic doggy care. I really liked Puppies For Dummies. Age makes a differnce. An 8 wk old puppy will need plenty of naps, good quality food 3 times a day, fresh water always available, and alot of love! As he gets older, you can do more socializing/training. Don't forget to keep him updated on his vaccinations.2/26/2013 5:23:28 PM
They're not guard dogs, and you want to discourage any tendency to do so. My family has two Saint Bernards and they bark rarely- and even then it's just one or two and they go back to sleep!8/14/2012 12:29:13 AM
We have worked with rescued Saints of all ages. I would change the food to a high protein puppy food like Nutro & add chicken broth & rice. For Pups not eating we make sure they get tons of exercise (to build muscle and increase appetite) & make a big production out of eating with lots of attention. I have hand fed them at times until they decided the food was worth eating. If nothing is medically wrong with the pup, we also pick up the food after 15-30min of time. The eating schedule is important to let them know "this is the only time to eat until morning". No snacks or treats just toys until the regain interest in food. Hope that helps.9/30/2012 11:38:21 AM
Actually you should never EVER feed a Saint Bernard puppy food. Saint's go through stages where they are thin and blocky as they grow. It's absolutely vital that you protect their bones. Since they grow so fast it is not recommended that they be fed puppy food or any food with extremely high protein. Also be careful to guard their hips and do not let them jump in and out of trucks/ SUV's while under 2 years of age. Female Saint's are naturally smaller than males. Also, depending on your weather, many dogs slim down during summertime. I wouldn't worry about her weight unless it becomes a problem and you see that she is not eating her food. You should be able to feel her ribs, but not really see them. More than likely, she is in a growth spurt and will fill out nicely before you know it. Please, do some research on what to feed growing Saints. Even research what I've said. It's very important to protect their bones and their joints. 10/16/2012 8:42:29 AM
I would not worry much about your Saint Bernard's size now, and she should be on the thin side more then over weight. At ten months, I call it the hound dog stage they seem to be skinny, anywhere between 60 and 90 lb10/27/2012 11:35:56 PM
No, St Bernards don't handle the heat at all! I have a 14 month old and he goes out and does his business then he's right back at the door wanting in the air conditioner! 7/16/2012 12:33:22 AM
NO! If you have a secured yard St. Bernard's can stay out with the option to come in, but never "kept" outside.9/12/2012 6:34:56 AM
OMG!!! Seriously....Usually saints are not a owners first dog. You need experience of raising dogs...The saint is a breed of their own. They are so smart, majestic and loyal. A saint needs to be socialized and trained. Very crucial. Saints become attached to owners quickly and if something happens to owners a saint he will possibly die of a broken heart. To put a saint outside is horrible...The only thing you will get is CUJO. PLEASE reconsider this for they are a wonderful breed and owners will never know the great traits and benefits of having a saint in your family..10/24/2012 12:28:30 PM
saint bernards do fine outside, i have raised saints for 20 years, some love being inside and some prefer to be outside,being outside isnt a bad thing as long as they are not put on a chain, or left long periods of time without attention10/27/2012 11:38:59 PM
I have owned 6 saint bernards and have been thru many diffrent brands of food,I have found that wellness dog food is the cream of the crop,My boys never have any skin issues always clear eyes no hot spots etc...I would swear by it Its also great for their coats,one of My guys will be 12yrs old this august!! Good Luck : )7/4/2012 3:47:29 PM
Yes you can but their coat won't grow back the right way, so I would recommend taking your saint to a groomer so as not to make the same mistake I did, Good Luck.7/1/2012 8:25:53 AM
Only if you know how. If you cut it too short it won't come back properly or it will take a very long time and the debate is also out as to whether or not trimming them helps them stay cooler. Most people say trimming does NOT help them stay cooler, that their coat insulates them from the heat.9/12/2012 6:38:07 AM
A puppies eyes are not fully formed when they are born. That is why they are born with closed eye lids. The iris has not developed and that accounts for a light colored eyes. This is normal.
Saint Bernards do not all have mask, they have the unique black eyes (Panda), half mask and masks.
Thanks for asking...I hope this helps.

Yes they should do fine together, we have a saint,a boxer and a german shepherd and they all sleep together,groom each other and play together, the biggest thing is to make sure their all fixed, because thats where you'll run into problems.7/1/2012 8:28:11 AM

I brought my St. Bernard at 8 weeks, I had already had a 3 yr & 5yr Pomeranian, He grew up with them and they all play together and he is 140 lbs at 15 months and is very gentle with them!
Saints do well with any dogs and the newfoundland was bred with the original saint the short haired type to create a dog with a thicker coat to keep them warmer in the winter and we got the rough coat or long-haired type, but it didn't help because the snow would bead up in the coat and stick to the fur.9/12/2012 6:43:00 AM

I am still trying to understand Paul Smith Man, but it's one of those that keep me coming back. I've only worn it several times, but it blends well with any attire, it's subtle yet intriguing. No comments yet, but I notice the second glances. Woodsy, minty, classy, and confident.

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
ATOMIC athlete Elias Ambühl is proving to be the man to beat this season, having taken gold at three out of four of the major big air events of the season so far. Last weekend Elias grabbed his latest win at The King of Style in Stockholm. Along with Jossi's win at the London Freeze, Elias and ATOMIC have swept the city big air circuit this fall with a win at every event.
Having taken gold at Freestyle.ch and the Budapest Fridge, and narrowly missing the podium in London, ATOMIC athlete Elias Ambühl was on a roll coming to Stockholm for the last big European city event. As one of the longest running events of the city big airs, The King Of Style is seen by many as the one to win, and athletes had come from across the globe to battle it out for the crown.CONSUMMATE PROFESSIONAL After flight delays and a late arrival in Stockholm, Elias Ambühl was unable to make the training session for the event, meaning that his first jump on the kicker was in competition. For some this would be seen as a hindrance, particularly at this contest, where the riders list reads like a who's who in the Freeski world. But the ATOMIC athlete showed why he is one of the most respected professionals on the circuit, laying down his best tricks from the start and immediately taking the pressure off himself whilst piling it on his opponents. The riders all had three jumps in the final, with the best two runs counting, and tricks were not allowed to be repeated.ROYAL PERFORMANCE Elias Ambühl immediately announced his intentions in Stockholm, throwing an enormous double cork 1260º reverse tail. Many of the athletes struggled with the landing, and fellow ATOMIC athlete, Jossi Wells succumbed to this pattern on the night, skidding out on two of his tricks in the finals, which eventually meant an eighth place finish for the Kiwi. However it was still a nail biting final, and as always at this event, progression was the name of the game. The finals saw as many switch doubles as normal doubles, something that is extremely rare on the competition circuit. Bobby Brown was looking good with his switch double cork 1260º in the bag and a double cork 1080º tail, and the UK's James Woods was also firing, landing a switch double cork 1080º and double cork 1260º nose to mute. But as has been the case throughout the season so far, Elias had an answer, and when he stomped his switch double 1080º mute to japan on his second jump there was no doubt who would be crowned king. The only time someone managed to beat the Swiss phenomenon was at the London Freeze when Jossi Wells edged out his colleague in the knock-out finals and went on to win the event. Thus ATOMIC athletes have stood on top of the podium at every major city big air event this year, and with four wins out of three, Elias Ambühl leads the AFP world rankings in Big Air.

I bought this cook top... I bought it to replace the stainless version from 2009. It works fine, it is not the item pictured. The item in the advertisement clearly shows a glass panel under the control knobs. This adds style from the rather plain looking porcelain coated deck. The panel also takes up the gap between the knobs and the deck and helps keep out food debris and liquid spills into the control **** stems. I spent hours... finally found the glass plate Item # 318242302. It cost an additional 97.00 from a parts dealer. Sears deny's the existence of what can be seen in the advertisement. If the feature is something you desire take note...

I bought this cooktop stove because the other one we had was probably about ten years old. It was so burned out that when I would put the setting on 5 it would go on high. The new one is perfect. It works and looks great. I am very pleased.

This cooktop looks great! I went without 2 burners for a while and this replacement was awesome! It looks really good and the burners work well and cleanup good! HOWEVER!!! The knobs do not seem to be intuitive. We had a major explosion during my son's 1st birthday party where a family member turned on the wrong burner and we had a glass dish on the other burner that exploded. Glass pieces everywhere and could have been deadly if someone was in the kitchen. Yes, our fault completely! We couldn't believe they turned on the wrong burner until I did it myself another day, my husband did it and even friends that came over mistakenly did it. That's even with remembering the major incident and triple checking the correct burners are on. I'm not sure what the "norm" is but instinctively we go left to right, top to bottom. The burners go from top to bottom..right followed by left and then left followed by right. This is driving me crazy but like I said it looks nice. I just always keep a kettle on the right side filled with a little water just in case we ever do this again.

My husband and I replaced our older Jenn-Air cooktop with this Kenmore cooktop about a week ago and I just love it. I can't believe how quickly it heats up..MUCH faster than my Jenn-Air did, even when it was new, and for a MUCH lower price. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a reasonably priced cooktop that works GREAT.

Purchased 5 years ago. Last year, the front burner got uncontrollably hot even on the lowest setting and could only be used to boil water. Now the large back burner is doing the same thing. Need to replace the unit after only 5 years. Very disappointed in this product.

Harvey Posts Another Double-Double as Women's Basketball Rolls at Coker; Win on Saturday Clinches Home Court in Tournament's First Round
February 22, 2011
HARTSVILLE, S.C. Sophomore forward Christina Harvey poured in a game-high 28 points with 14 rebounds as Pfeiffer University won their fifth-straight contest after a 69-41 victory over Coker College in Conference Carolinas womens basketball action on Tuesday night. The Lady Falcons move to 13-12 overall, 12-7 in league play needing a win in Saturdays regular season finale to host a first round tournament game. Coker suffers the loss dropping to 3-20, 3-14.
Off a steal, Cokers Megan Thomas gave the Lady Cobras their lone lead of the night with layup 75 seconds in. A 6-0 run on three-straight baskets by Harvey put the Lady Falcons up 10, 16-6, with 11:31 remaining in the first half. Shanice Cooper and Thomas cut the lead Pfeiffer down to eight with 5:16 left, before Brittany Cox pushed it to 13 with a layup 1:47 before the break. A triple by Cassie Kirby sliced the Lady Cobras deficit down to seven with under a minute left, but Harvey converted another shot with 29 second left for a 35-26 halftime lead.
After Thomas cut the lead back to seven 1:08 into the second half, the Lady Falcons bolted out on a 10-0 run to grab a 17-point advantage. Harvey and Cox each had a pair of baskets in the spurt. Pfeiffer got the lead up to 21 on a layup by Kellie Rhoney in front of another Thomas basket cutting the lead back to 19 at the halfway point of the second. Cox along with Celeste Caudill, drained late triples to cap off an 8-0 run as Pfeiffer cruised to the final buzzer.
Behind Harveys double-double, Cox followed with 20 points as Pfeiffer shot 50% from the field. Thomas led Coker with 17 points in 39 minutes of action. The Lady Falcons held the advantage on the boards 37-25 while the defense allowed just 15 second half points to the Lady Cobras.
Pfeiffer will wrap up its 2010-2011 regular season on Saturday night hosting Erskine at 5:30 p.m. The Lady Falcons will host their annual Pink Zone game to benefit breast cancer needing a win to clinch home court in the first round of the 2011 Conference Carolinas tournament.

skrubbles' sketchbook
Time for me to start a new sketchbook. I'd revive my old one, but all the images are broken anyway.
Short Introduction: I work as a 3D Character Artist for the game industry. I have nearly ten titles under my belt. I few years ago I had to make a decision to focus on my drawing or my 3D. I chose 3D because I knew I would be able to get a job quicker and I was seriously in need of a job upgrade (from working at McDonalds). I accomplished what I wanted, but I need to focus on my art again. So now I'm back! Trying to work on the things I've been neglecting for too long. I'm not going to ignore this stuff any longer! Booyah!!
I'm going to try to update this thread on a regular basis. If you see me slacking give me a swift kick to the face!!

The Seattle Sketchgroup is doing a mini-tdome. While I was working on some thumbnails I made something I thought was cool, but didn't fit the topic at all. I had to size it up and play with it a bit more anyway.

I particularly like the way you've handled this http://conceptart.org/forums/attachm...1&d=1193438447 , but the hand could use a little more work, I think (says somebody who's crap at drawing hands), and the nose-to-mouth lines are a little too sharp and dark. Over all, though, I really like it.

Off to a good start Lou, nice to see you back .

I love the portrait. The skin texture and detail is really fantastic. I think maybe a little more hue variation in the white cloth around his face would be nice. I'm curious to see how the second figure develops, the silhouette looks good so far.
October 28th, 2007 #7
alesoun - Thanks. I agree that the hand needs work (amongst other areas). I have excuses though!!! Unfortunately they won't help me become a better artist. I really just need to practice practice practice.
Bojee - Thanks buddy I'm going to try and be a little more active in my sketchbook this time around.
KPetrasko - Thank you. The creature doodle most likely won't develope any further then what you see above. It was just an accident while working on another creature design. I just thought it looked cool and wanted to post it.
Here's some poses I sketched at last night's Seattle Sketchgroup meet-up.

Bojee - Thank you
Alesoun - Thanks!
Been busy busy busy lately. I've been looking at getting back into a studio instead of freelancing... I becoming too much of a hermit and miss having coworkers. So on top of my work I've had art tests and interviews. Anyway, I should have a bit more freetime on my hands now... especially if I'm hired for an in house position somewhere. The thing that sucks about working from home is that I'm always at work.
As I mentioned in a previous post, the Seattle sketch group is doing a mini-tdome. The topic is "Amphibious Rodent Steampunk." Here's the thumb and the lineart I have so far. Need to clean it up and throw some colors on it. I was using a hoping mouse for ref. So that along with the frog (the heaving lower-jaw area) which also hops, I decided that the steampunk should affect the hoping. I know the gear placement doesn't make much sense, but honestly a lot of concept design for robotics in games/movies would never really work they way they're depicted... as long as it looks cool. So hopefully this looks cool enough.
Oh yeah. I've known about this homebrew application for the DS called Colors! for a while now. I believe there's even a thread for it on this forum somewhere. Anyway, I just bought a new crimson/black DS Lite mainly because I want to get Colors! on it and have a small portable tablet PC! I can't wait for my R4 cartridge to arrive in the mail so I can play around with this program. Then I can do speedpaints whenever I feel like it!!!! MWAHAHAHAHA!!

Lovin the speedpaints, I'm trying to get into those now for landscapes. Any tips? Oh and definite second on posemaniacs, don't know how I would learn to draw people without them!
Favorite of the thread was this, very warm rich colors, moody and calm. Water effect played a big role. Great speedpaint.

This morning sucked... our life drawing model didn't show up at all
ghoulio - Thanks on both counts
Leadster618 - Thank you. I suck at landscapes/environments and that's why I'm doing the speedpaints. Only tip I have is to use ref. Doing a speed paint of landscapes or portraits from reference photos has really been helping me out. There's only one rule which is NO COLOR PICKING! Try to figure out lighting and color without using the color picking tool and stealing it from the photo. Yes it's tempting but it won't help you at all. After a few speeds you'll notice that your accuracy for color choosing will get better. Also doing this from ref will help you build and mental library of color, shapes, lighting, and how differently textured objects look and behave under different lighting conditions. I really need to do more of those studies!. A fantastic photo ref website is http://www.pbase.com

Nice work here - good selection of stuff.
on the last speedpaints - maybe a little depth of field? the bottom right one has a good sense but the others edges are a bit sharp

Smokey186 - Thank you
shamandalie - ummmm okay SURE! *HUGZZZZOMG
kidult - Thanks. I'm doing these studies manly for color. I'm not really focusing on form or subject... just trying to understand, see, and apply color. As for edges being a bit sharp, I'm mainly using the hard-round brush with opacity pressure sensitivity. I maybe use one other unique brush to add some noise or leaves. I'm trying not to use 20 brushes and making these finished pieces... just done quick to train my eyes. Down the road when I'm more confident with my color skills then I'll worry about the other elements of painting.
Here are yesterday morning's and today's speedpaints.

It is almost identical to Xeryus, I can barely tell any difference. I'm not complaining, because I love Xeryus!

The Sharks have declined an invitation to play the Stormers and the Lions in a pre-season Tri-Series at Newlands at the end of January.
The Durban-based franchise has competed in the tournament in recent years, but said a long upcoming Super Rugby campaign meant it wasn't ideal to play tough warm-up matches beforehand.
'We will play Boland and the EP Kings over two weekends early in February,' Sharks assistant coach Hugh Reece-Edwards told The Witness newspaper. 'Playing in the Newlands triangular involved playing two games [against the Lions and the Stormers] in four days at the end of this month.
'We think it will be more beneficial to our planning and preparation to spread the games over two weekends, particularly this early in the season and with a long year ahead of us.
'I believe the Cheetahs are taking our place in Cape Town,' he added.
The Sharks kick off their 2012 Super Rugby season with a match against the Bulls at Loftus on 24 February.
