In Reply to: When is too much too much?
: Hello,
: My JRT is very obsessive compulsive about many things. It's too the point where there is nothing stopping him when it's something that he is obsessive about. For instance, he goes beserk over the light of flashlights and vacuum cleaner and light images on the wall, going for a drive, climbing trees, chasing birds, squirrels, kites and planes, and playing tether ball or baseketball. I haven't corrected his behavior on these things but lately some of his behavior has been distruptive and affecting other people. For instance, if kids are playing tether ball or basketball, my dog will just jump in and try hitting the ball with his nose. Now, if kids are playing tether ball, I keep him on leash, but if he sees the tether ball going, he will cry and yelp and tug at the leash to go there. Also, he won't listen when he's going beserk over a kite and I am chasing him in a circle. Once this person's kite fell to the ground and my dog attacked it and tore it to shreds. Can you please provide some suggestions on these problems and whether I should stop him immediately when he becomes obsessive compulsive about things.
: Thanks,
------------------ Response Area -------------------
Much of what you are describing falls more into the category of a very enthusiastic dog. Obsessive compulsive activites are more in the areas of licking, flank sucking, wind sucking, incessant barking for no apparent reason and moving like circling and pacing.
You need to get this dog exercised more, a tired dog is one that is not so gung-ho on joining in on every activity he witnesses. Take a good 30-60 minutes devoted just to him and play fetch with him or some other game that will get him moving and active.
Please get him enrolled into a good obedience school as this will teach him the necessary commands to make him controllable but it will also teach him to focus on you and not everything else around him.
All of us here cannot stress enough the importance of obedience work with this breed. It is the only edge you will have in remaining the "top dog" in your home. This is a breed that will readily take over if given the opportunity but it is also a breed that loves to please their owners. Obedience school is the perfect way of solving both. You will find your dog bonding even closer to you when you two actually become a team.
So remember, a LOT more exercise than he is getting and also obedience school. If you make this commitment I am positive you will see some really great results.
Good Luck!

Although you'll want to give your child a solid background on your state's history with an engaging curriculum like Switched-On Schoolhouse® State History, you can also teach state history by weaving additional lessons into any subject area. With the following projects in science, art, and other subjects, you can teach your child a new love for the state you call "home".
Stop and read the memorials to your state's past. Roadside historical markers describe important facts about your state's heritage that can peak a child's interest in state history. Develop individual unit studies that expound on an event, such as using markers in western Nebraska to study the early pioneers on the Oregon Trail.
Play historical detective. Visit local museums and have your child choose one unfamiliar historical object. Ask your child to speculate on the mystery object's use and then find out the real story behind it. Have your child identify the object, explain its function, and share why it was significant when it was used. (Hint: Older family members and retired people in your church or community are excellent resources for information.)
Give younger children a head start in learning your state's capital (plus the names of all fifty states and their capitals) with puzzles or fun learning activities like the States and Capitals Card Game.
Encourage older children that love to hike and explore to study their state's geography with geocaching. Using a Global Positioning System (GPS) or other navigational techniques, treasure hunters hide and seek small waterproof containers containing a logbook and inexpensive "treasures". Caches in your state and near your city can also be found online.
Get the musician in your homeschooling family excited as he learns, plays, and sings your state's song. Incorporate a biographical study on the song's writer or spark your child's creative juices - ask him to write an additional line, verse, or stanza that reflects some significant fact about your state.
Social Studies
Look for famous personalities that were born and raised in your state – Presidents, explorers, movie stars, sports heroes, or politicians. Let your homeschooler pick his favorite and write an in-depth biography about the person.
Do a unit study on the Native Americans that were the first inhabitants of your state. Discuss their cultural influence on the state and their life today. Explore the tribe's history and construct a shoebox diorama illustrating a typical Indian village.
Create a genealogy of your child's ancestors using a large tag board. Discover whether you have any family roots in your state.
Visit local parks or reserves and spend a day studying your state's native plants, insects, birds, and animals. Send your child on a photo scavenger hunt to find species unique to your state and then record his findings with a disposable camera. Your state's department of natural resources may also provide tours and fact finding information on native wildflowers, prairie grasses, and soil types.
Study your state's climate and weather patterns. Make a chart of average rainfall and monthly temperatures and list types of severe weather found in your state.
Discover your state's recorded past in autobiographies, journals, diaries, and historical fiction written by pioneers and past leaders of your state. Stories can be found in archived newspapers, books, and reference materials at your local library.
Business and Commerce
Familiarize your child with your state's main forms of commerce by taking field trips to local industries. Whether your state is agriculturally based or known for fishing, manufacturing, mining, or some other industry, your child will remember more if he sees the steps in producing the resources.
Arts and Crafts
Teach your child the meaning of the symbols and colors on your state flag while sewing a flag from leftover scraps of material.
Using plaster of paris, clay, or paper mache, create a 3-dimensional relief map and label the major lakes, rivers, mountains, and other physical features of your state.
Decorate a large plastic coffee container and make a time capsule with items of historical significance – native grasses, seeds from the state tree, picture or feathers from the state bird, copy of the state constitution, etc.
Schedule a visit to your state capitol while the legislature is in session to observe the process of a bill becoming law. While you're there, study the history of your state's admission to the union and view your state's constitution.
Although some of these activities may overlap into several subject areas, choose the ones you think your child will enjoy most. Studying your state's history doesn't have to be boring or monotonous. Make it as easy and fun as your next trip around town.

- After his segment with CM Punk at last night's SmackDown tapings, WWE Champion The Rock participated in an off-camera segment with Damien Sandow. Sandow interrupted The Rock talking about the city of Little Rock. Rock went around the ring and asked fans if they wanted to see Sandow get a Rock Bottom. Rock went back in to give Sandow a handshake but ended up hitting him with a Rock Bottom and a People's Elbow. - On a related note, fans in attendance last night noted that many people left after The Rock's segment and didn't stay for the Big Show vs. Chris Jericho main event. - A WWE source notes that while many fans have complained at the idea of having John Cena vs. The Rock II at WrestleMania 29 this year and have suggested other opponents for Cena and Rock, no match is going to make the company more money and sell more pay-per-views than Rock-Cena II. Because of this, many people within WWE would be very surprised if Cena-Rock II didn't happen this year.

77% of CEOs in A/NZ feel the most critical investment area lies in improving their ability to draw meaningful insights from customers. So, why do CEOs place such high value in engaging customers as individuals? The 2012 CEO Study has found that companies that are able to successfully engage with customers often exhibit high revenue and growth. In fact, companies with high revenue growth and high profitability (outperformers) are twice as good at deriving value from data – key to engaging customers as individuals, when compared to organisations with low revenue growth and low profitability (under performers). More specifically we explored how outperformers engaged with customers as individuals, and found three interesting trends.
Outperformers utilise big data to reveal customers they never knew
We found that outperformers use today's analytics to provide opportunities to explore big data to detect patterns and reveal new insights. In order to explore data predictive analytics is often used - and helps the organisation extract value from the abundance of data available. This data can then be used to assemble vital pieces into holistic profiles of individual human beings.
Outperformers listen lavishly, and responded with focus
In exchange for more insight, customers want organisations to interact and respond through offering what they want, when and where they want it. Thus, it is important that once you have listened to the individuals that you respond with relevance and speed. Then study each customer touch point and find ways to respond more selectively and create deeper connections that build loyalty and advocacy.
In today's ever changing business environment mobility is elevating customer expectations, thus organisations need to rise up and meet these expectations by creating value out of immediacy. Organisations need to be ready with relevant services and information in the context of the moment. This can be achieved through using advanced mobile capabilities and taking advantage of location-based services and new forms of e-commerce.
Your organisation needs to strongly differentiate through better data access, insight and translation into actions. Through using a mixture of the above three steps you can give your organisation the competitive advantage in the race to engage customers as individuals.

Bruins, Sharks Not Living Up to Standard of Other Games Between Potential Stanley Cup Opponents (Video)
Originally written on NESN.com | Last updated 3/23/12
The Bruins have struggled early against the San Jose Sharks, but maybe it's not their fault. After all, the schedule isn't doing them any favors with this being their latest game on the calendar all year. Coast-to-coast flights can be tough, after all. Just ask Milan Lucic about that. NESN Nation's Dan Duquette is willing to cut the B's some slack for their slow start out West. Are you? Join NESN Nation: In-game home page | Twitter | Facebook

Boston Bruins star Tyler Seguin is young, rich, and a Stanley Cup champion. He's very successful and talented on the ice, but when it comes to cleaning your house, he's pretty awful at it. Swiss tabloid, Blick, reported that Tyler Seguin pretty much lived in a dirty frat house during his time in Switzerland. The tabloid reported that Seguin tried to wash his clothes in the dryer, didn't know how to use the dishwasher so he bought plastic tableware, and the floor was littered with Coca-Cola bottles. The floor was also littered with coins worth about 220 francs. Rotten bananas were left on the table. The cleaning company had to spend an entire day to clean up the bathroom. Marc Lüpold, managing director of the cleaning company hired to clean Seguin's apartment, told Blick, "You could tell it was the first time a young, single man had an apartment." No kidding. C'mon! Washing clothes in the clothes dryer?! Even I know how to use a washing machine. Also, you didn't h

Basic hotel, small room but bright, comfortable and clean. Great location in a small plaza next to Starbucks and other restaurants and very close to Antea mall. Easy highway access and free parking. Basic breakfast but ok to commence your day."
A nice modern hotel with all the amenities in your room that you could ask for. The full breakfast had a good selection and varied daily. The staff was very accommodating and polite. Would definitely stay again!"
Gran Hotel de Querétaro is a very well-located hotel if you want to stay at Querétaro´s historic center since points of interest are at walking distance. Its personnel will make every effort possible to make your staying very pleasant. Rooms are well iluminated, spacious, and have nice balconies."
Went to a family reunion in Tequis. Several of us stayed at the Hotel Rio. Staff was very friendly & helpful. Hotel's location in Tequis is not very good, but near the market."
We enjoyed, nice and friendly staff. Walking distance from central square."
This a very good choice if you want a family trip. I recommend you strongly..."
Positives: Huge hotel with historic Mexican feel. Landscaping was beautiful and well maintained. Pool had plenty of seating and very couples/family friendly. Pool also contained onsite bar that served drinks and food. Option to eat at onsite restaurants was also a nice perk. Hotel service was good. Lot's of amenities (bike rental/tennis courts/basketball courts/fitness room/etc.). Negatives: Room was large, although I made the mistake of not upgrading room to larger size bed/room. Mini fridge was locked, although I could have called to have it unlocked. Only able to get lukewarm water from shower. Ventilation system allowed smoke from outside (or other rooms) to enter my room. Overall: I enjoyed my stay very much and would recommend to others. Beautiful historic hotel with very pretty landscaping to look at while relaxing at the pool. Enjoyed the option to dine at onsite restaurants."
My wife and I stayed at the Hampton for one night, new slightly unfinished on the outside, very clean and had everything in the inside. great business hotel for short stay as there is no pool but there is a Gym. I would consider staying there again in the near future. the neighbourhood is safe although there is nothing around of interest.Breakfast is included which is a plus although it only runs till 10am and 11 at weekends. Ruben is reception was very helpful."
The hotel comply with th HI standards however I coukd notice that the hotel conditions were not the best. There were many roof leaks in the pathwalks. And the dinning room was not enought for the amount of people stayed there."
It was veryconvinient because we had a event in the church and we just need to cross tre street and we were there thank you for your help with my reservation"

Catalyzing U.S. Leadership on Hunger
By David Beckman on March 1, 2012
© Foreign Service Journal
It was a political development that seemed to come out of left field. In the summer of 2011, just as grim details about the famine in the Horn of Africa began to show up on newsfeeds in industrialized countries, the U.S. House of Representatives voted to make significant cuts to international food aid fudning. Perhaps even more surprising was the sizable contingent of House members, 25 percent, who voted to eliminate all funding to provide basic food rations to some of the poorest people in the world.
It's an understatement to say that the past year has been an eventful one in the U.S. Congress and in national politics generally, full of deals, brinksmanship, rhetoric and rumors. At Bread for the World, the grassroots hunger advocacy organization of which I am president, we keep reminding ourselves to keep our eyes on the prize: ending the widespread but unnecessary human suffering that hunger inflicts.
Along with other nongovernmental advocacy groups, we have been urging the 112th Congress to adopt legislation that protects and strengthens what the United States is alreay doing to address the root causes of hunger -- and to break new ground. For instance, funding under Public Law 480 (Food for Peace) literally saves lives. Its impact is much more immediate and direct than much of our other federal spending.

HSBC "lift" by Grey London

In last week's 'Single Equality' Green Paper, the government clarified that there would be exemptions for insurance firms' products for specific demographics.
Without exemptions, brands including Sheila's Wheels, Diamond and Saga would have fallen foul of the proposed legislation, which is aimed at eliminating age and sex discrimination.
'The government recognises that it is fair to use data on age and gender in setting premiums for some products, because different groups represent different levels of risk,' said Stephen Haddrill, director-general of the Association of British Insurers.
'We welcome efforts to ensure that, when the EU Gender Directive becomes law in the UK, it is applied in a way that minimises bureaucracy for insurers and costs for our consumers,' he added.

The startup, which is led by former AOL (NYSE: AOL) SVP Gio Hunt, had previously raised $2 million from backers including Atlantic Ventures and Altos Ventures. Those two firms, along with QED Investors, also participated in this round.
