The phones started ringing as the Memorial Day Weekend kicked off, and the calls have been coming ever since, according to area animal care and control officials.
As near-record high temperatures climb into the mid-90s, some residents are leaving their pets locked inside steamy vehicles during the heat of the day.
"We've had two or three cases already of people leaving these animals in their cars," said Henry County Rabies Control Officer Vince Farah. "It could get up to 120 degrees, or 130 degrees [inside a car], on a 90-degree day."
The National Weather Service (NWS) reported area temperatures had reached into the mid-90s early Wednesday afternoon, with heat indices near 100 degrees. In contrast, NWS climate data revealed normal temperatures average in the low-to-mid 80s for this time of year in metro Atlanta.
Thursday's forecast calls for a 20 percent chance of afternoon showers and thunderstorms, complementing otherwise mostly sunny skies. High temperatures are expected to be around 93 degrees with heat indices as high as 97 degrees. NWS' Seven-Day Forecast repeats those projections through next Tuesday, June 7.
"Any animal that is found to be locked in a vehicle that is in distress will be removed from that vehicle by whatever means [by animal care and control officials]," said Farah, citing Henry County Ordinance 09-01, Section 3-4-11.
Farah said officers from animal care and control are patrolling parking lots for animals that are left in vehicles. "We're keeping our eyes open for them," he warned. "We're not writing warnings, we're issuing citations for cruelty to animals."
Henry County Animal Care and Control Director Gerri Yoder advises residents to keep their pets at home, if their pets cannot be with them at all times. "If you are leaving your house to go somewhere and your pet can't go in wherever you're going, leave the dog at home," Yoder said. "I cannot emphasize enough, you cannot leave your dog in a car. No matter what the temperature is outside, there is no point in taking your pet, just to leave it in your car."
Yoder said a dog naturally has a higher body temperature than a person. She recommends -- as an added measure of protection for the dog's health -- that owners of dogs with heavy coats consider having their animals' coats groomed or shaved.
"Make sure that your pets have a constant source of clean, drinkable water at all times, and have adequate shelter from the heat," said the animal care and control director. "Make sure the water is in a shaded area, and the dog house is not sitting in the sun."
Yoder said residents should be mindful that as the weather heats up, so does activity among the native wildlife. She said people and animals are generally more active when the weather is warm. The possibility of having interactions between species increases, and so does the likelihood of rabies infection from wildlife, to humans or pets.
"We encourage people to make sure that their rabies vaccines are current," she said. "A yearly vaccine is required by law for dogs, ferrets, and cats."
Farah said human and/or pet contact with wildlife has already been reported. "We've tested a total of 20 animals so far this year -- a combination of two foxes, five raccoons, a bat, and six felines," said Farah.
The rabies control officer said the county has confirmed two positive cases of rabies in wildlife. One fox tested positive in the Stockbridge area, and one raccoon tested positive in the Fairview area.
"Wildlife are out roaming," Farah said. "You don't need to leave food outdoors. When you feed your pets, any excess food needs to be picked up."
Farah said residents may consider limiting their outdoor activities in order to minimize their potential exposure to rabies-infected wildlife.
Residents are encouraged to stay indoors as much as possible during times of near-record temperatures, according to Hayla Hall, risk communicator for the Georgia Department of Human Resources District 4 Health Services.
Hall said doing too much on a hot day, such as spending too much time in the sun or staying too long in an overheated place, can lead to heat-related illness, like heat stroke and heat exhaustion.
Heat stroke occurs when the body is unable to regulate its temperature. It can cause death or permanent disability, if emergency treatment is not provided, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Heat exhaustion is a milder illness that can develop after several days of exposure to high temperatures, and a person not consuming enough fluids.
The CDC points out several factors that affect the body's ability to cool itself during extremely hot weather. When the humidity is high, sweat will not evaporate as quickly, preventing the body from releasing heat quickly. Other conditions related to risk include age, obesity, fever, dehydration, heart disease, mental illness, poor circulation, sunburn, and prescription drug and alcohol use.
The elderly, the very young, and people with mental illness and chronic diseases are at greatest risk of a heat-related illness, according to the CDC. However, even young and healthy individuals can succumb to heat, if they participate in strenuous physical activities during hot weather.
Hall imparts this advise during these days of extreme heat: Stay indoors whenever possible; drink plenty of fluids; wear appropriate lightweight, light-colored clothing; schedule outdoor activities carefully, and never leave infants, children or pets in parked cars.

Thornton: Elbow isn't a concern
Thornton discusses his elbow issue
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Matt Thornton said Wednesday he has no concerns about his left triceps.
The White Sox pitcher believes the inflammation discovered in his elbow, the result of an MRI exam on Tuesday, is the result of the first week of camp and gives him no reason to be fearful. Thornton said he expects to resume throwing in a couple of days.
As it were, the plan called for the White Sox to take it easy this spring with Thornton, who tied a career-high with 74 appearances last season. Thornton isn't scheduled to appear in his first Cactus League game until early March.
"It's the process of adding the workload, I'm not worried about it at all," Thornton said. "We have time to back off it a little bit and there's no reason to throw through discomfort on Feb. 19, so I'm not worried about it one bit. I trust [trainer Herm Schneider] to get me right and we'll be throwing in a couple of days here."
Thornton went 4-10 with a 3.46 ERA in 65 innings last season. The left-hander's 472 appearances ranks as the fourth most in club history. He said the soreness is nothing like what he dealt with in 2010 when he had forearm/elbow issues.
"Aching, bulky, whatever you call," Thornton said. "It's more than likely just the process of throwing every day for a week, adding the intensity, live [batting practice], cutting loose a little bit. It's something we'll get under control and it won't be a problem the rest of the year."

Cyber Security professionals know that one problem with keeping systems secure is software. Often, it is the software, particularly for applications, that has security holes. To fix that, ISC-squared has established an Application Security Advisory Board. Hart Rossman, who is a member of the board, explains that the board itself isn't designed to put its stamp of approval on software: right now they're just focusing on educating the software developers.

Hasid Is a Punk Rocker!
The Punk Jews project
Oh, that's not the song. How did I confuse "Sheena" with "Hasid"?
Now that I have your attention, I'd like to introduce you to Punk Jews, an online documentary series set to air in the late summer, featuring the characters that make up the, well, punk Jewish scene. Not punk, the genre of music, but punk, the attitude. The spirit. (Incidentally, among those who do represent Jewish punk, the genre of music, are the Ramone brothers—they were born Jeffrey and Mitchell Hyman in Forest Hills, Queens.)
The documentary's subjects include Hasidic African-American rapper Y-Love; Levi Okunov, a fashion designer originally from Crown Heights; and Rivka Karasik, a mixed-media artist who grew up Lubavitch. Also featured is the crowd from Cholent, the Thursday night free-wheeling party that was thrown in the Millinery Shul and named after the stew-like concoction containing beans, barley, flanken, potatoes, and, of course, kishka.
Filmmakers Jesse Zook Mann, Saul Sudin, and Evan Kleinman just met their $10,000 fundraising goal through kickstarter.com.
They hope to add to that sum this Saturday night at Manhattan's Sixth Street Synagogue. The event will feature performances by Golem, Y-Love, Moshiach Oi, Eden, and Blanket Statementstein, with art installations by Rivka Karasik, Elke Reva Sudin, and Ira Kaufman.
The event will take place this Saturday at 9:30 p.m.

Governor Shocks Cyclists with "Give Me 3″ Rejection, Approves Bills Making Infrastructure Improvements Easier
Posted By Damien Newton On October 1, 2012 @ 10:39 am In Give Me 3,Jerry Brown | 19 Comments
(Note: It was a busy 72 hours in Sacramento this weekend. Streetsblog will split it's coverage of Governor Jerry Brown's signings and vetos into two separate stories, one pertaining to bicycles, and a second post for everything else.)
For the second year in a row, California Governor Jerry Brown issued a last-minute veto of legislation mandating a minimum three-foot distance for motor vehicles to pass cyclists. However, two other bills making it easier for cities to implement bike lanes got the governor's signature, albeit in watered-down form: AB 2245 [1], which exempts bike lanes from excessive review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and AB 819 [2], which establishes a Caltrans experimentation process for adopting currently non-standard innovative bike lane designs, like physically protected bike lanes.
When Brown vetoed the 3-foot passing bill last year, he argued in a widely panned veto-message [3] that a three foot passing law would damage the "free flow of traffic" and proposed a change that would not address his stated problem. This year, Senator Alan Lowenthal (D-Long Beach) made the changes that the Governor requested to SB 1464 [4], but Brown and his advisors created a new reason to veto the legislation.
This year, the Governor's veto message [7] expressed concern that the state would be liable for any crashes caused by reckless drivers who crossed a "solid yellow" line to give cyclists the three-foot buffer. The veto message also stated that Caltrans proposed a solution to "this issue," but that Lowenthal's office refused to make the change. Caltrans did not return calls for comments, and advocates familiar with the legislation professed to have "no idea" what the Governor was referencing.
In the nineteen states that have three foot passing laws and the one that has a four foot passing law [8], Streetsblog can find no evidence that the kind of lawsuit the Governor fears has ever been successfully prosecuted. The California Bicycle Coalition [9] (CBC) reports that the California Department of Finance, the department responsible for tracking whether legislation opens the state to lawsuits, opined that current law would protect the state from these sorts of lawsuits. The CBC also notes that the language the Governor is concerned with was included in 2011's three foot passing law, and that neither the Governor nor Caltrans expressed any concerns last year.
Cycling advocates were incensed at the veto.
"It's pretty clear that the Governor is out of touch with what is happening on our roads," writes Eric Bruins, the Policy and Program Director for the Los Angeles County Bicycle Coalition (LACBC). "With the distracted driving bill and the 3-foot passing bill, the Legislature is responding to the public's concerns about traffic safety. It's time for the Governor to engage on these issues and protect victims of dangerous and distracted driving."
The California Bicycle Coalition was even harsher [9].
"Brown has offered no indication of how he views bicycling or expressed any ideas for ensuring the safety of Californians who rely on bicycling as everyday transportation," writes the Coalition on their website. "By vetoing SB 1464, he makes clear that he prioritizes legalistic speculation over the safety of Californians."
"We're deeply concerned about what his lack of vision and leadership means for the safety of our streets and roads."
Ted Rogers is the author of the website Biking In L.A. [10] and a member of the LACBC Board of Directors. After last year's veto, Rogers and a handful of other bloggers began referring to a cyclist being buzzed or struck by a passing motorists "being Jerry Browned." When asked if he thinks "being Jerry Browned" will catch on, he argues "He deserves to be remembered for this for the rest of his hopefully short political career." Rogers was speaking for himself, and not the LACBC.
But the news wasn't all bad for cyclists out of the Governor's Office. While Brown refused to "Give Me 3 [11]," he did sign two pieces of heavily amended legislation that will make construction of bicycle projects easier.
AB 2245 [1], introduced by Asm. Cameron Smyth (R-Santa Clarita), exempts bicycle lanes already included in certified bicycle or circulation plans from the environmental review requirement in CEQA. The first draft of the legislation applied to all bicycle lane projects, but as noted on Cycleicious [12], during the hearing process the bill went from sixty words to more than three hundred and sixty words, somewhat watering down the initial intent.
The new language has created some confusion, even amongst planning professionals. For example, The LADOT Bike Blog [12] wrote on Friday, "We'lll have more on this as we figure out what it will mean for the City of L.A. and the many bike lane projects we have in the works."
But experts still see a "win" for communities that want to put down more bicycle lanes for two reasons. First, it reduces the bureaucracy and paper work required before a bicycle lane can be painted by cities, although local outreach and even public hearings can still be required. Second, because CEQA is taken out of the equation, cities won't have to base their analysis on car-centric "Level of Service" traffic projections for thirty years in the future.
"We're interested to see how the CEQA/bike lane bill can help communities meet their goals of greater accessibility and healthy, sustainable options for more biking," writes Leah Shahum with the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition. San Francisco, which was bogged down by a frivolous four-year bike injunction [13] after a CEQA lawsuit, could perhaps benefit the most from AB 2245 if bike lane projects are no longer the required to meet standards under Level of Service, which projects delay impacts for automobiles. Those projections are particularly "bad" in the Bay Area over the next thirty years, according to LOS.
AB 819 [14], introduced by Bob Wieckowski (D-Fremont), is another piece of legislation that many cyclists view as an improvement but concede the language was watered down in the legislative process.
The law signed by Brown on Friday creates a Caltrans-led committee that will decide how cities can "experiment" with cutting-edge bicycle infrastructure. The original draft of the bill, as profiled on Streetsblog [15], allowed cities to adopt recognized design guidelines such as those created by the National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO). While AB 819 may allow for some infrastructure projects to advance that might otherwise stall, one proponent of advanced cycling infrastructure, who wished to remain anonymous, scoffed that, "The idea that California is so exceptional that we have to do an experimentation process for infrastructure that has been proven, and in use, for decades around the country and around the world is simply absurd."
Ultimately, the value of the legislation will depend on the makeup of the committee. The CBC promises to keep on top of the committee's formation and report back on its actions.

Cutting across ideologies, the BJP and Left parties paid homage to the former South African President, Nelson Mandela, who passed away on Thursday after a prolonged illness.
BJP leaders said the world had lost an apostle of peace and non-violence who inspired people across the world to stand against injustice and discrimination. Party president Rajnath Singh said he was deeply saddened to hear the news of Mr. Mandela's demise. He was an inspiring hero, who fought against discrimination and injustice to people all his life. "Nelson Mandela believed in Gandhian methods and philosophy and became an iconic figure who gave up his own freedom to ensure freedom for his people.''
BJP prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi said on Twitter, "The world has lost an apostle of peace & non-violence who redefined the journey of his nation for the good of humankind."
The Communist Party of India (Marxist) said: "In Mandela's demise, the world has lost one of its finest sons who fought lifelong for the betterment of the people's living conditions. He was a true champion of the people of Third World countries and all those who are oppressed and exploited. In his death, all the people fighting for freedom and against injustice have lost a valuable ally and a comrade-in-arms. His death is a great loss to humanity. At the same time his life and work remain a source of celebration in the onward march of humanity for freedom and liberty.''
In a statement, the CPI(M) said: "He is a symbol of all the people of the world struggling for freedom, democracy and human dignity.''
CPI general secretary S. Sudhakar Reddy said Mr. Mandela was one of the greatest freedom fighters and leaders of the National Liberation Movement of this century. "He was inspired by Mahatma Gandhi and built up a very powerful and peaceful movement in South Africa to end apartheid. It was a very difficult task to mobilise tribes and difficult political streams of South Africa. But he successfully mobilised all these sections," he said in a condolence message.
Dipankar Bhattacharya of the CPI(ML) said Mr. Mandela has left behind a lasting legacy of determined struggle against discrimination and oppression, for liberty and justice.
The All India Forward Bloc said Mr. Mandela's incessant struggle for freedom and his imprisonment of long 27 years would be written in the annals of history with golden letters.
The Centre for Trade Unions said, "Nelson Mandela's life will continue to be a great inspiration to the struggles of the toiling classes against exploitation and imperialism.''
Another Mahatma, says Gowda
The former Prime Minister, H.D. Deve Gowda, recalled the bilateral agreement signed by him with President Mandela on March 29, 1997 in Delhi and discussions held on strategic issues with him. Mr. Gowda, who is also the president of the JD(S), described Mr. Mandela as a "great man" and "another Mahatma of the world."
Keywords: Nelson Mandela, anti-apartheid icon, Pranab Mukherjee, Manmohan Singh, former South African President

Kumar, one of the key persons involved in the policy making said, "If a destination has to get the desired attention and for sustainable development, the first thing that should happen is that the living condition of those living in and around the destination should improve."
In the wake, Oommen Chandy government is prepared to kick-start the development project that is looking to get Rs.10 crore drinking water schemes involved. As we know that the primary reason hitherto was that the beaches were not clean, hence current efforts will lead to clean the untidy beaches and much attention will be given to upkeep the surrounding areas. In fact, it is also going to benefit those who are living in and around the destination and suffering from serious drinking water shortage and sanitation problem.
In the wake of Kovalam beach is set to become one of the cleanest beach destination in the world. As the makeover of Kovalam is undertaken, the tourism department is set to focus on other destinations as well. To get more information about Kerala please contact us

I quite like the quality of the vectors, but I think the way you have composed the image doesn't look that good. Maybe you could make it like a crest with symmetrical wheat plants at either side, like on the Erdinger beer logo or something like that. Just an idea.

Rep Power:
this could be considered way off base, but I think the principals are similar. My wife and I RV'd from Ontario to texas every year twice a year (her X lives in TX) and we brought the kids to see there Bio twice a year. We did the drive there 36 hours with small breaks along the way gas avg 600.00 to Dallas. We would stay in the area for 30 dys while the kids were visiting the father and RV parks some what like marinas charged for everything, site, water power, sanitation. some what free wifi. Given our vacationing practices during this time we rented a car a few times, friends lent us a car as well for a few weeks, we ate out, took in a few plays, shopped sight seeing, some retail therapy and then picked up the kids, our cruise home was more relaxing and only 8 hours behind the wheel to locations we had never been. Again we sightseeing tours, water parks, 7 flags and the like. Our total 2 month venture was usually in the 3k range for all the added activities. Our hard costs were fuel avg'd at 1600.00 for the month, rvparks were almost 1000.00 we stopped at walmarts and rest stops where allowable. we eat good food and cook 85% in our RV. When we change to boating this sumer it will be interesting to see what the difference will be in expense, also you need to know that my wife is a princess and such has been treated so, we live a very confotable life, have nice things, we hve adult toys, powerboat 22.5ft ATVS, RV, kayaks, tent camping, I do lots of hunting and for the most part the associated electronics to go with the adventures we do.
The biggest thing I see is the new learning curve to begin to simplify our comfort zone to where we can both accept and enjoy "life".
My plan is to begin cruzing extended weekends and into weeks at our home grounds of the great lakes, then next year doing a very extended tour of Lake Ontario, to Huron, superior back through Erie into Ontario during the summer. 2.5 months in our 25ft hughes. I relise it will be tight 2 adults 2 kids 11 & 13 but I am hoping that if we manage and reform ourselves here then upgrading to a larger boat will be most satisfying and we will have more insight to what we need, what we want and most importantly what we can do with out.
again I hope this is not to far of a side track and if so , please have moderator remove or repost.
