Apple begins shipping iPad 3G preorders before Friday's launchCustomers who pre-purchased the iPad with 3G data connectivity began receiving notifications Thursday that their order has shipped in time for the device's Friday launch.
Unlike the Wi-Fi-only iPad, which arrived on Saturday, April 3, via UPS, Apple has opted to ship the iPad 3G with FedEx. As expected, the orders state that the hardware is due to be delivered by April 30, which is the official launch day for the WiFi + 3G iPad.
The device will also be available in Apple's retail stores on Friday, but customers will have to wait until 5 p.m. until they can purchase. The 3G iPad models carry a $130 premium over their Wi-Fi-only counterparts. The 16GB model starts at $629, the 32GB capacity is $729, and the high-end 64GB offering is $829.
In the U.S., AT&T will offer no-contract data plans for the iPad, starting at $15 per month for 250MB of bandwidth, or $30 for unlimited access. Both plans offer free access to AT&T's nationwide Wi-Fi spots. The iPad ships unlocked and uses GSM micro-SIM cards, but the internal 3G radio is only compatible in the U.S. with the AT&T 3G network.
The 3G model offers an estimated 9 hours of battery life when surfing the Web using a 3G data network. Surfing on Wi-Fi has a slightly longer estimated capacity of 10 hours.
Though the 3G launch is proceeding in the U.S. as planned, Apple earlier this month was forced to delay the international launch of both the Wi-Fi and 3G models until late May. Officials said higher-than-expected demand for the iPad in the U.S. forced the delay, so that Apple could accommodate all of the 3G orders for the April 30 launch.
Apple sold more than a half-million iPads in the first week of sales of the Wi-Fi-only model. One recent estimate suggested that the device recently crossed the 1 million milestone by counting devices spotted on an online advertising network.

NS Profile - Batman
Superheroes aren't heroes any more. They are cases. Their private miseries have eclipsed their acts
Superheroes aren't heroes any more. They are cases. Their private miseries have eclipsed their acts
by Matthew Sweet Published
Don't tell Fathers 4 Justice, but something has happened to Batman. He's not the guy they thought he was. He is not a daring vigilante with an instinct for fair play and a predilection for grey nylon. According to Batman Begins, the new film of his formative years starring Christian Bale, he is a brutalised boy with a grudge against society: a violent loner with a passion for martial arts who prefers the company of pipistrelles to people. If he were fighting a custody battle for his ward, Dick Grayson - otherwise known as Robin - his attorney would be advising him to call it quits and relinquish the boy to Gotham City social services.
Superheroes aren't heroes any more. They are cases. Their private miseries have eclipsed their acts of derring-do. In the 1950s, Batman, Superman and their colleagues were simple, shadeless line drawings of men who liked to dress like Mexican wrestlers and save people from implausible road-traffic accidents involving school buses and suspension bridges. As time passed, however, new interpreters took these characters and slopped new layers of psychological depth on them like Cuprinol.
The comic-book artist Frank Miller can take much of the blame for this. He is the guy whose extravagantly horrid chiaroscuro work gave the world Sin City, a vicious, noirish place in which the men are all scarred hard cases and the women have never heard of the sports bra. In the 1980s, Miller reinvented Batman as a lonely nightwalker, a dark, twisted figure who was scarcely less mad than the colourful lunatics who were his enemies. Tim Burton's Batman films were sourced from Miller's work; in these, the Caped Crusader was a depressed fetishist with a taste for vengeance. And this trend has continued under Christopher Nolan, whose Batman Begins is a Freudian study that enumerates the disparate environmental factors that turned a moneyed young jailbird named Bruce Wayne into a cowled vigilante. (Witnessing the murder of his parents is the crucial event - nothing that would overtax his analyst.)
The result of all these psychological make-overs is that these bizarre figures now seem the closest that American pop culture has produced to Shakespeare's tragic heroes. The Hulk was a snarling green monster in ripped jeans until Ang Lee and James Schamus turned him into an overreacher whose scientific curiosity is punished by a burst of gamma radiation. The Spider-Man of Sam Raimi's recent films isn't a mild-mannered photojournalist with a sideline in crime-fighting - he is an alienated boy whose loved ones have been killed by a villainous goblin.
I once interviewed Nicholas Hammond, who, as well as starring opposite Julie Andrews as the von Trapp son with the Midwich Cuckoos eyes, played Spider-Man in a short-lived 1970s TV series. He saw the character as an environmental campaigner - "rather like your own Prince Charles". I doubt whether such cheerful little notions were ever discussed at any of Raimi's script conferences.
But there is only so much complexity that a figure as fundamentally absurd as the superhero can accommodate. A man who swings over tall buildings in a branded costume is still a man who swings over tall buildings in a branded costume, regardless of childhood traumas. Hamlet may also have worn tights, but he and Horatio didn't tear around the fjords in a Hamletmobile or hang out in the Hamletcave, scale the walls of Elsinore with a Hamletarang, or communicate with Fortinbras via a bright-red flashing Hamletphone. And I dare say if Claudius's wicked plan had involved turning the water supply of Denmark into strawberry jelly, or drowning his brother in a giant ice-cream cone, the play wouldn't have been revived quite so many times.
The Batman of my childhood was untrustworthy for other reasons. I rarely read his graphic adventures; in the 1970s, imports of American comics were haphazard, and it was impossible to find consecutive issues of anything. You'd buy Batman one week, then wait months for another and be forced to content yourself with Justice League of America, in which Batman teamed up with Wonder Woman and the Green Lantern to prosecute the kind of US foreign policy for which Jimmy Carter had no stomach.
The Batman I knew best was the television one: Adam West, a burly American leading man, straining inside a battleship-grey body stocking and leather bat mask. His body looked as corseted as William Shatner's. Indeed, he shared something of Shatner's peculiar acting style - quivery yet rhetorical, with a fast-slow-fast pace that made him sound like a man at a lectern attempting to prevent his big moment being ruined by an inconvenient orgasm.
I was frustrated by this Batman's inability to react convincingly to the dreadful situations in which he found himself. Whether he was trussed up inside a giant Ming vase enduring Chinese water torture or reeling from the mind-bending love darts of Marsha, Queen of Diamonds, he never seemed madly bothered by any threat he faced. And why would he, when he could simply fumble in his sunflower-yellow utility belt and produce a gadget that would save him in an instant? If Adam West's Batman was captured and tied to a buoy in shark-infested waters, he would just rummage about for a few moments and whip out a handy aerosol can of Shark-Repellent Bat Spray. If he was tied to the track of the Gotham City subway, he would wriggle about until his hand made contact with his compact Bat Laser Gun and, in one bound, he and Robin would be free.
I was too innocent to understand that these easy games of capture and escape could be explained by a slippery cultural concept called camp. Like most nine-year-olds, I preferred sturdy certainty to all that nudge-nudge, wink-wink stuff. I responded to the numerical hierarchies of Top Trumps cards, the muscular certitude of the Trigan Empire. I had never even heard of Susan Sontag. So it was impossible to take Adam West's whoop-de-do Batman seriously, and there seemed to be no way of knowing that was the last thing you were meant to do with him.
Now I'm in my thirties, I have the opposite problem. I am too old to find the new, dark, deep Batmen anything but ridiculous. Batman Begins does not change that. Boys at my school who fancied themselves as ninjas and got into trouble with the police generally ended up in the army or on heroin. They certainly did not fashion themselves elaborate outfits in impressively sheeny black fabric and scoot over the rooftops of Stockport, seeking out wrong-doers. They were more likely to be committing crimes themselves than stopping anyone else breaking the law. But who wants to see a blockbuster movie about a scally who nicks car radios?
And who, now Batman has been so comprehensively reinvented as the screwed-up product of a broken home, would want to dress up as him in order to project the idea of male heroism? Only nine-year-old boys who are half-blind to the murky complexity of what is on the screen before them - or their estranged fathers, perhaps, surveying the unfairness of the world from the top of a motorway bridge or a balcony at Buckingham Palace.

34Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
35For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
36Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
37Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
39Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
41Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
42For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
46And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

Boston Scientific delays trial of hypertension treatement
Boston Scientific Corp. (NYSE: BSX) is putting testing of a treatment for hypertension on hold until the company finishes analyzing an abandoned effort by rival Medtronic (NYSE: MDT) , Bloomberg News reports.
Bloomberg reported that Boston Scientific CEO Michael Mahoney said that before starting a Vessix trial, Boston Scientific executives want to know whether Medtronic had trouble with its technology or with the structure of the trial exploring its success. At issue is treatments aimed at lowering blood pressure by impairing the function of nerves that elevate it. Bloomberg quotes Mahoney saying: "We want to wait and see and learn more about the Medtronic trial results before we have broad discussion with the FDA about what the trial design should be."
Boston Scientific shares were off 3 cents, or less than 1 percent, at $13.53 in mid-afternoon trading today. At the same time, shares of competing medical device companies were trading essentially flat.

Robert Pattinson is known as a swoon-worthy Brit with a killer head of hair, but his [movie id="369195″]"Twilight"[/movie] co-star wants RPattz fans to see a new side of the actor.
"He's really talented, he's really smart, he's really musical, he's an intellectual, he reads," Nikki Reed told "Access Hollywood." "That's the side that I wish people would [ask about]. I don't know if anyone necessarily even knows him … that side of him."
And although Pattinson has captured the hearts of teen girls everywhere, for the "Twilight" cast, he's no different than anyone else. "We got to know him in a different environment," Reed added. "I don't feel any differently about Rob than I do about the rest of the cast."
But one male co-star who did manage to win the affections of the ladies on set is Taylor Lautner. "Taylor's my fave!" Reed gushed, while co-star and fellow Team Jacob member Rachelle Lefevre added: "I already adopted him, back off!"
The ladies admire the fact that Lautner worked so hard to win back his role of Jacob Black for the sequel. "His commitment is unbelievable," Lefevre said. "I would've ran away. … I would've been terrified. He had to screen-test again."
And Lautner recently admitted that he is a bit nervous about heading back on set to reprise the role he fought so hard to get. "I'm getting a little nervous," Lautner told E! News. "But I'm so thankful for the fans and even those Robert Pattinson/ Edward fans. I know we wouldn't … be here filming 'New Moon' and [then] filming 'Eclipse' if it wasn't for them."
He just hopes that Team Edward members "don't hate on me too much. I love you guys!"

Actor/director/teacher. Split my time between Beijing and Seattle now. Listen to Audible on the subway and while driving or riding my bike.
This is unquestionably the most amazing tale of men against the elements that I have ever read or heard, and it is told remarkably well by Lansing who draws artfully from the actual diary entries of the participants without ever reducing the narrative to a dry progression of quotes. His ability to bring the harrowing conditions and landscape, the fascinating array of characters, and the grueling sequence of challenges and hairsbreadth escapes into sharp and riveting focus is quite extraordinary. Simon Prebble is a perfect match for the fine writing. He audibly sorts out the personalities involved and presents the whole with an understated but charged clarity which keeps the narrative moving even through what could seem like a never ending and tedious progression of disasters in the voice of a lesser reader.
Of course the real stars here are Shackleton and the men under his command who prove themselves capable of feats of courage, endurance and simple, stubborn determination which almost surpass belief. Ordinary and flawed in so many ways, they come together to become much more than the sum of their individual qualities.
In the end, the most fascinating part of this story is the long and torturous series of life and death choices involved. Time after time Shackleton's decisions are crucial to the party's survival, whether the question is when to abandon the pack ice for the boats, when to kill the dogs, when to allow the party to split, or how to get to the bottom of a nearly vertical snowbound precipice in order to avoid freezing at high altitude (think Butch Cassidy and Sundance). Nature is an implacable adversary for these men, marshaling countless terrifying storms, thirst, cold, hunger, completely unpredictable ice and long weeks of winter darkness against them and time after time crushing hope just as it seems most justified. Perhaps the most extraordinary decision of all, under the circumstances, was the choice each of them made to simply keep on keeping on when it seemed to make no sense
Finally, while this tale is exhausting in some ways, it is also deeply inspiring and satisfying. And Lansing and Prebble have given us the wonderful opportunity to "experience" it all while sitting in comfort and safety. Almost doesn't seem fair, but I strongly urge you to take advantage of the offer.
I had never heard of Kokoda before listening to this book. That is a shame. I am not likely to forget the name now. This is one of the more amazing chapters in the annals of war.
It is very much a story of the indomitable spirit of common soldiers called upon to perform impossible tasks with inferior equipment, little or no training, some of the worst terrain in the entire world and stupid, pig-headed leadership at the highest level. FitzSimons does a fine job of keeping us engaged with the narrative even as the action of the men on the ground is reduced to an interminable, repetitious slog between indefensible positions which are held in the face of overwhelming odds and casualties only to be given up as the serial holding actions continue. He does this by giving us detailed and moving accounts of individuals and etching in our minds indelible images of moments of extraordinary heroism and gallantry. Nor does he fail to include Japanese participants among these glimpses of war's exquisite anguish. In addition we are regularly taken to the rear to witness the unpardonable, ego-driven pig-headedness of MacArthur and the Australian high command which failed the troops in almost every way.
This is an account made all the more gripping because it played such a pivotal role in turning the tide of the Japanese expansion in the South, holding the door shut while the U.S. put Marines in place on Guadalcanal where they would dig in to face their own ghastly ordeal. Without Kokoda, there would have never been a victory at Guadal and the war would doubtless have lasted significantly longer. The poorly trained, unprepared, mostly unsupported men of the Australian home defense forces at Kokoda deserve to be remembered with reverence, and this book tells their story brilliantly. I highly recommend it.
On the afternoon of October 5, 1957, I was a paperboy picking up my daily issues to deliver. There on the front page was the news in a stark, black headline. The Russians had launched an earth satellite. Even a kid in small-town Connecticut could feel the shock waves and experience the excitement and wonder at this dawning of a new age. But how could they have done it before us?
The extraordinary story which was NOT in the Bridgeport Post that evening is here, fully revealed, rich in detail and personality, seen from both sides of the Iron Curtain in a way I never expected to read it ever. Politics, science, engineering, cutthroat struggles for leadership are all present in a very nicely balanced account which moves along with a momentum appropriate to the story of the highly charged "Space Race." That contest, of course, had very little to do with space and a great deal more to do with image, influence and the military calculus of a nuclear age still in its infancy. Brzezinski brings all of that into sharp focus.
The narration is charged with energy and consequence without becoming uncomfortably overwrought. A coldly detached presentation of this material would, to some degree, fall short of putting us in touch with the spirit of the times. Tension, risk, soaring innovation and sometimes crushing failure come with emotional baggage. The twelve year-old paper boy in me is glad that that fact is tastefully reflected in this reading. A quick listen to the sample will allow you to judge for yourself, however.

Here is a quick run down of some commen ones that I have exerience with. All are good for the small time guy. The best one? Depends on how many jigs, what size, and how often you will use it.
Palmer Hot Pot II. The cheapest of the bunch. Handles 4# of lead. Sides have a pour spout. A couple of molds and this pot are a good starter. The only other thing you would need would be an old spoon to scoop out the lead scum that forms on top.
Lee Precission Melter. Handles 4# lead. Variable thermostat, so you can adjust the temps. You'll need a ladel to go with it.
Lee Production Pot IV. Handles 10# of lead (they also make a 20# version for more $). Both are bottom pour melters. Useful on smaller size pourings. You hold the mold under the pot, hit the leveler, lead fills the mold, pull mold away. If you are doing larger (i.e., 2 oz and up) jigs, you'll need a ladel instead.
Lee Magnum Melter. Handles 20# of lead. You use a ladel to pour the lead into the mold. Useful if you are doing a lot of larger jigs.
All but the Hot Pot have variable temp. Turn the knob to increase the heat. Start at high to melt the lead, then decrease the temp (lead needs 621 degrees F to melt). Higher temps mean more fumes. One thing to consider on the bottom pour molds, the spout will clog from time to time, so there is some maintenance there.
Note of warning. Only melt lead in a well ventalated area, wear a respirator specifically for lead, wear safety glasses (lead will splatter from time to time), and gloves. Don't eat or drink while pouring and wash well after pouring.
Other questions? Fire away. We need more leadheads here
Posted February 24 2004 - 2:08 PM
Wow! Thanks for the info. I think the Lee Production IV will suit my needs well. Now, where can I get one for less than $56? I found a brand new one online for $50 with $6 shipping. Is this a reasonable price (It's Cheaper than Ebay)?
Also, while we are talking $$, how much do you usually pay for Lead, and what is a good source? I cant figure that it would be cost effective to ship lead.
Thanks again.
Posted February 24 2004 - 9:01 PM
Jannsnetcraft, Stamina, Do it all sell those pots. Not sure on the price. You can also get molds at those places if you need those too. Plenty of other places around too. You might also pick up a large, cast iron ladle for pouring. Some of the larger molds are easier with a ladle.
As for lead, check your local plumbing supply place. They'll often have ingots. If not, check around town for a scrap metal place. You'll often find sheets of lead for something like $0.30 a pound. Tire weights will work in a pinch, but I prefer not to use them, especially with the bottom pour pots. Too much other stuff in tire weights besides lead. Different melting temps, weight, etc.
Posted February 26 2004 - 9:29 AM
I have a Lee Production IV and a electric ladel. Both do a fine job. One thing about the IV is that if your pouring a large jig, say a 6 oz diamond jig, the pour hole tends to cure before the entire mold is full and you have to remelt and start over. In that case I use the 2 lb ladel since it will pour a larger amount faster. The IV just does pour alot real fast, but is fine most of the time.
Some hints, Smoke your molds with the smoke from a candle. The finish will come out better and the lead will release from the mold easier. Also make sure your molds are hot...theyget hotter as you pour and you will notice that the jigs come out better.
And make absolutely sure there is no moisture in the mold when you first start, you'll get a face full of lead and may be fishing blind the rest of your life. Hence the goggles stated by jigman a good choice.

15 Jan 2012 22:41 GMT | Sport, Football, Romania, Slovenia
AC Milan, Juventus and Udinese all dropped points on Sunday as the battle at the top of Serie A intensified. Inter Milan thrust themselves back into contention with a huge 1-0 win over fierce local rivals AC Milan. It could have been better for Juventus who were held to a 1-1 draw at home to Cagliari. The result left Juventus one point ahead of AC Milan at the summit. Udinese are three points behind in third after they fell to a 3-2 defeat at Genoa.In Turin, Juve opened the scoring on seven minutes with a stunning team goal that involved a mesmerising exchange of passes.Stephan Lichtsteiner burst forwards from right-back and played the ball to Simone Pepe, whose back-heel found Claudio Marchisio.The Italian midfielder helped the ball on to the rampaging Lichtsteiner, who continued his charge forwards and teed up Mirko Vucinic for a simple tap-in.
Sunday January 15 Cesena 3-1 Novara Chievo 1-0 Palermo Fiorentina 0-1 Lecce Genoa 3-2 Udinese Juventus 1-1 Cagliari Lazio 2-0 Atalanta Parma 3-1 Siena AC Milan 0-1 Inter Milan
But Cagliari drew level two minutes after the break through Andrea Cossu's sumptuous hit from outside the box following Leonardo Bonucci's weak clearance.Reported Manchester United target Milos Krasic should have stolen the win for Juve in injury time but was guilty of a shocking miss.In Milan, veteran Argentine forward Diego Milito rolled back the years to score the only goal of the game and move fifth-placed Inter to within five points of their neighbours.Milan had much the better of the first period but Inter still looked dangerous when they could get forwards.They had the ball in the net in the fifth minute but Thiago Motta's header from Maicon's free-kick was rightly ruled out for offside.Inter defended for long periods but when they came forwards they were dangerous and Japan full-back Yuto Nagatomo picked out Ricardo Alvarez with a cross but the Argentine, who was free in the box, dallied and then hit his finish straight at Christian Abbiati.Inter took the lead nine minutes into the second period thanks to great work from captain Javier Zanetti and a crucial error from Milan right-back Ignazio Abate.Udinese upsetGenoa dominated from the off against Udinese and Alberto Gilardino should have done better when put clean through but he slipped and then from the ground could not beat Samir Handanovic.The Slovenia goalkeeper had to be at his athletic best to beat out a curling effort from Alexander Merkel.Udinese took the lead on 14 minutes when Damiano Ferronetti headed home Pablo Armero's corner.The game was turned on its head within 60 seconds at the start of the second half.Handanovic spilled Bosko Jankovic's free-kick and Andreas Granqvist was quickest to the rebound to prod home.Moments later Jankovic met Kevin Constant's left-wing cross with a drilled volley that gave Handanovic no chance.Genoa extended their lead as Rodrigo Palacio finished crisply after a mistake by Joel Elkstrand.But 15-minutes from time, the hosts' captain Marco Rossi was dismissed for bringing down his Udinese counterpart Antonio Di Natale in the box.Television replays suggested Rossi played the ball, although it was difficult to see, and Di Natale swept home the spot-kick.Lazio close inEarlier in the day, Lazio laboured to a 2-0 win over Atalanta at Rome's Stadio Olimpico to breathe new life into their faltering scudetto hopes, leaving them five points off Juve.Lazio scored with just about the only chance of note in the first period. Stefan Radu ran into the box and cut inside Andrea Masiello, who left his leg out, and the Romanian full-back needed no second invitation to fall over it.Brazilian Hernanes sent goalkeeper Andrea Consigli the wrong way from the spot.The second period was equally sedate until Lazio captain Tommaso Rocchi fell as he went around Stefano Lucchini.Television replays suggested there had been no contact whatsoever but the referee still brandished a second yellow card to the Atalanta defender and the visitors were consigned to playing the remaining 35 minutes at a numerical disadvantage.Miroslav Klose sealed Atalanta's fate in injury time with a precise finish after a clever drag-back on the edge of the box.Romania forward Adrian Mutu surpassed 100 goals in Serie A as he scored a brace in Cesena's 3-1 win over Novara.Cesena are now just three points from safety, with Novara three further back.On Saturday, the match between Catania and Roma was abandoned due to heavy rain after 65 minutes with the score level at 1-1.

Petcor Flea Spray
Active Ingredients: -0.27%, Pyrethrins -0.20%, Piperonyl butoxide - 0.37%, N-octyl bicyloheptene - 0.62%
Petcor Flea Spray with Precor IGR kills fleas, ticks, lice, & mosquitoes on pets with it's natural pyrethrins . Petcor Flea Spray may be used on dogs, cats, puppies and kittens. This flea spray keeps flea eggs from hatching for up to 63 days. Petcor Flea Spray may be reapplied weekly.Used by Vets, dog breeders, groomers, etc. Petcor Flea Spray comes in a 16 oz. pump and has a light alcohol base.
- Contains natural pyrethrins to immediately kill adult fleas.
- Precor IGR, an Insect Growth Regulator that kills flea eggs for 63 days after application.
- An effective addition to a flea control Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategy.
- Approved for use on dogs, cats, puppies and kittens.
- Convenient - simply apply Petcor by spraying as needed.
How It Works
The mobility of dogs and cats makes it difficult to treat all potential areas of flea infestation. So, it's important to consider a flea control formulation that goes where they do - especially one that targets pre-adult fleas, the source of reinfestations.
We recommend treatments inside and outside
Petcor Flea Spray contains Precor IGR, an Insect Growth Regulator that targets flea eggs on the animal by sterilizing them.
Application Sites
- Coat of dogs, cats, puppies or kittens
- Contains natural pyrethrins to immediately kill adult Fleas, Ticks and Lice, plus Precor IGR, an insect growth regulator that targets the egg and larval stages of development for 63 days after application. Approved for use on dogs, cats, puppies and kittens (Not to be used on puppies and kittens under 12 weeks of age). The mobility of dogs and cats makes it difficult to treat all potential areas of flea infestation. So it's important to consider a flea control formulation that goes where they do - especially one that targets pre-adult fleas, the source of reinfestations.
It is a violation of Federal Law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
A light, even coverage of the hair coat will provide effective flea control. Do not allow spray from application or damp animal to come into contact with painted or finished surfaces, including wood floors/furniture, leather/vinyl materials, or other surfaces of concern. For best penetration, ruffle the coat while spraying against the natural lay of the hair. Cover animal's eyes with hand. With a firm fast stroke, spray head, ears, and chest. With cloth, rub into face around mouth, nose, and eyes. Then spray the neck, middle and hind quarters, finishing with legs and tail last. Avoid spraying rectum and genitals. Apply at the rate of 1 or 2 squeezes of the trigger sprayer per pound of body weight. For larger dogs, spray until damp, not saturated. Do not allow animals, cats in particular, to become chilled. Repeat every 2 months, for continuous home flea infestation prevention. If your pet becomes re infested with adult fleas from outside sources, PETCOR Flea Spray may be reapplied weekly.
Make sure spray thoroughly wets individual ticks.
Leaving the eyes, nose, and mouth exposed, treat puppies and kittens weighing less than 3 pounds by wrapping the animal in a towel that has been lightly sprayed with PETCOR Flea Spray, for 5 to 10 minutes. Or lightly spray a brush or cotton ball and work thoroughly into the hair coat. Fleas may then be removed from the coat by picking or combing. Puppies and kittens over 3 pounds may be treated the same as dogs and cats as described above. Repeat every 2 months for continuous home flea infestation prevention. If your pet becomes re infested with adult fleas from outside sources, PETCOR Flea Spray may be reapplied weekly. Do not allow animal to become chilled. DO NOT USE ON PUPPIES AND KITTENS UNDER 12 WEEKS OF AGE.

- Highly effective against fleas
Petcor works so much better than the products you get at a grocery or pet store. This is more expensive but you get what you pay for. I will never buy the grocery/pet store brands again.
- ISIS fleas
Great product...have a little patience and it will do the job as advertised.
- Pector Flea Spray
This is the BEST product I have ever used for fleas. Sprayed my outside dog in April and he is still flea free. Sprayed 5 inside cats---same thing. This also works on carpets and furniture. I will never use anything but this and will always order from this site. How can you beat a wonderful product with free shipping? Thank you and my pets thank you----Dee
- Petcor Flea Spray
Jut ordered 3rd bottle for my carpets since the cat's have not had fleas since April. This stuff works on furniture and carpets with no staining. I LOVE IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Excellent
I ordered this for my 4 cats who are indoor pets, but some how got flea infested as well as my home. I sprayed them and also the few carpets I have . My cats have been flea free for 2 weeks now. I bought some other stuff for home, but this product worked excellent on my cats!! They thank you-but not as much as me!!!!!!
- Great product
Works better than anything I have tried.
- Overall very good
I own a pest control company and noticed this product on the shelf of my supplier. The ingredients are all essential in control of fleas yet safe enough to use on Cats Dogs , Kittens, Puppies..You will see immediate results..Be ready to catch and kill fleas which are jumping off right after application. I used it on my pets and found it to be very effective with lasting results. I like every else have bought products off the shelf that are weak or results seem to be poor at best. This actually works!! I recommend it to all my pest control clients. Read the label carefully and try it on a small area on the pet first to ensure it does not have a negative reaction.

The Zsolnay factory was founded by Miklos Zsolnay in Pecs, Hungary, in 1853 to produce stoneware and other ceramics. By 1878, pieces leaving the Zsolnay factory were marked with the famous "Towers" trademark showing five towers for the five medieval churches in Pecs. The factory continues operations.
This lovely hand-painted rabbit figure, circa 1980's, will melt your heart. They were made in various poses, so you can start building your set of bunnies. It measures 2" in length and 2 3/8" in height. Stamped on the base with the "Towers" mark and "Zsolnay Hungary". There are no cracks, chips or repairs. Cute.

Like they say, enough is enough!
But the real definition of the story I'm about to say is simply enough! There have been five cases of fatalities involving Rockford police officers.
1. The first one was where a policeman was said to be speeding, ran into a vehicle, and two people had died. Then, our state police had gotten involved in the investigation, and the officer was said to be not guilty.
2. and 3. The next ones had also happened when two policemen had prior (separately) records of using excessive deadly force.
4. There is an ongoing investigation in which two witnesses had seen a man killed by a different patrolman. And it's now being taken to court.
5. The very same two men in blue (with prior records) have lately been involved in the multiple shooting of Mark Anthony Barmore. But this time, it may not be different. The state police (again) will most likely find the officers, Oda Poole and Stan North, innocent for a second time.
But it's also been said,
Birds of a feather flock together.
To the state and city police, Mayor Morrissey, and Rockford Police Chief Epperson, now is the time to say,
We are mad as hell, and we will not take it any more!
Shake your fists, raise your voices. Then, also pray that
the truth shall set you free.
No matter what the outcome is, we hope justice will prevail. Just maybe, then, these fatalities will never happen again. Then it will really be

Great restaurant around the corner (Ma Yucca) and brilliant boulangerie 1min from the hotel!
Excellent food here. Japanese & euro fusion done perfectly.
Really nice wooden cubicle style desks at the back past the books with plug sockets. Great for no distractions!
