Blackberry to Layoff 4,500 Due Massive Losses
Blackberry announced Friday, September 20, 2013, afternoon about the layoff of 4500 jobs due to massive losses incurred from its smartphone. The company's decline is due to its main competitors Android Phones and iOS phone. There were reported $1 Billion loses for the company. 4500 translates to 37.5% trim down in their current work force.
Report further says that Blackberry now less than 3% of the U.S. market, despite releasing two new phones this year. The company introduced a third new phone, the Z30, earlier this week.
It is believed that Z10 launch has been a disaster for BlackBerry.
Report also says that BlackBerry will now focus in the Enterprise Market and will stop competing in the consumer smartphones. It seems that BlackBerry is gaining at the Enterprise Market. BlackBerry Enterprise Service servers had an increase from 19,000 to 25,000 in three months. BlackBerry needs to have strategic alternatives in order to stay in the business. In the middle east BlackBerry has been noted in serving business men, long before the introduction of Android phones. It is clear that with the number of application available from Android and IOS most BlackBerry user changes their phones.

Happy Earth Day to the Entrepreneurs!
The business of conservation.
5:40 PM, Apr 22, 2010 • By MARY KATHARINE HAM
On this day, often dedicated to genuflecting to Gaia and her regulatory, busy-body apostles, it's worth remembering that capitalism bought us the luxury of having environmentalists in the first place, and the free market has greened large parts of the world without their help.
Don Boudreaux keeps a running log of his observations of this phenomenon under the heading "Cleaned by Capitalism."
Cato celebrates Earth Day in its way:
It's also a function of our societal wealth allowing us the economic trade-offs of environmental regulation without depriving us of basic needs and wants.
It's been said by critics that conservatives need a message of their own on the environment, that making fun of Earth Day (while fun) won't cut it. I certainly think being critical of scientists who "hide the decline" and bureaucrats who would institutionalize political favoritism and cripple economies with a bogus carbon trading scheme are worthy causes. But I also think critics are right about small-government conservatives thinking outside the box on this issue. As with health care, a conservative opposition without a coherent plan and push on an issue leaves a vacuum for statists.
So, what might be an alternative? How about conservation's small businessmen? Meet John Logan, a Mississippi farmer who turned chicken poop into a power source, and his power source into an international business.
I don't usually believe the hype from liberals about conservatives speaking to each other in code words, but the word "conservationist" is important. I'm pretty sure Logan just told us he's no nutty, lefty environmentalist. He's not comfortable with the word "environmentalist," but he cares about his land and his business. There are thousands like him, who may share the basic value of environmental stewardship with the greens, but who will not be reached by their emotional and often self-righteous rhetoric.
So, what did this conservationist do? Something that could make him a hero to NPR listeners and Weekly Standard readers alike. Imagine that:

Results for WEEK 3
View 4RASCALS's Sparkpage
View All Blog Entries from 4RASCALS
Sunday, September 23, 2012
Week three was a tough week for me. Doctor appointment on Friday the 14th. A follow up on my health issues. A blood draw show that my A1C is stable at 6.1. That's good news. BP was good, and I lost weight. Other test were not so friendly. My Vitamin D level still remains low. They will re-test in three months. My C Reactive Protein, which measures inflammation levels remains high. That is not good news for my RA, Fibro, and Sjogrens. We talked about fatigue that I have been experiencing lately. Decided I really need to give the C-path machine another try. Since I have sleep apnea, as well as Fibro, sleep issues are a problem. Another problem we discussed was crying. While it doesn't happen all the time, I cry for no reason what so ever.
Doctor thinks it's depression, she knows that I have had a hard time accepting some of my health issues in the past two years. Also some of my health issues contribute to depression. So we are changing my Fibro medicine. I start the new medicine October 1st. Doctor thinks I may have depression. That scares the hell out of me!
Hoping that the new medicine will help.
Since my goals for the previous weeks were working without any real problems, I decided with Week 3 to kick it up a little.
Added an extra 5 minutes to my exercise time, for a total of twenty minutes. .SO SO
Continue to work on a positive attitude ---DONE
Listen to my self improvement tape at night ..DONE
Take my medication daily ... NOT SO GOOD
Use the C-Path machine ...ONE DAY ONLY
I know it doesn't seem hard to do. Medication, I take 14 pills daily, and give myself an Injection. I've never been a pill person. In the last two years I've become overwhelmed with them.
Bottom line is that I'm not giving up. Gotta stop feeling sorry for myself and push forward.
This is the last week of September, and as promised I want to make it the best ever.
Think maybe I will consider I group that deals with depression. It can't hurt to know your not alone.

You have depression and if you have 2 years with those conditions you have to see a psico. It's not so bad. Sometime we think we are really bad but when you look back someone is worst than you. Try to think positive and always smile to you. You are not alone. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR LOVES ONE.

There are many concerns these days with mold in the home. Once pipes burst or there's water damage in a home, there's a strong chance for mold to grow. With the increase of bank owned homes on the market, and many having been closed up for quite some time or not having the pipes drained in the winter, mold is an ever growing topic for worry. Home buyers ask about mold in the home frequently and here are some things you should know about mold.
1. There are an estimated 400,000 types of mold, and less than 100,000 have been named. An estimated 1,000 types of mold have been found in homes in the U.S.
Less than 80 molds have been found to cause some type of illness, with only a very few that are considered toxic.
2. Molds are fungi. In nature, molds help break down dead materials on soil, plant matter, foods, and many other items. Molds produce microscopic cells, called spores, which are spread through the air. Spores act like seeds, forming new colonies when there is an appropriate temperature, moisture, and food source.
3. There are three major Mold Groups
Allergenic – generally mild symptoms – scratchy throat, itchy eyes, rash, etc.
Pathogenic- usually causes some type of infection and can cause serious health effects if the person has a suppressed immune system.
Toxigenic - Mycotoxins can cause serious health effects in almost anyone.
4. The most important step in solving a potential mold problem is to identify and correct the moisture source. Some of the common indoor moisture sources include:
Flooding, condensation, water seepage from basement walls and slab, roof leaks, plumbing leaks, humidifier use, inadequate venting of kitchen and baths, improper venting of combustion appliances, and failure to vent clothes dryers.
5. A homes relative humidity should be kept at 20-40% in the winter, and less than 60% the rest of the year. Molds will readily grow at 70% moisture content.
6. Ways to control moisture include dehumidifiers, proper ventilation, air circulation near cold surfaces, and efforts to control the production of moisture in the home. All identified molds should be investigated, cleaned/removed by a qualified individual.
Your local Ohio home inspector has the ability to test for mold in your home or the home you're considering buying. Remember, just because there's evidence of mold in the home and though it should be removed, it doesn't necessarily mean it's black mold.

NCAATournamentBracket.org is produced in order to provide you relevant information about the current and past NCAA basketball tournaments and the current NCAA Tournament Bracket. Our entire purpose for this site is to find and disseminate information on NCAA Tournament brackets and other post-season play that you will find useful.
The NCAA Men's Basketball tournament is one of the most popular single elimination tournaments of its kinds in the world. It is held every March and now has 68 college basketball teams compete with four of the 68 teams going head to head in the "First Four" that is held in Dayton, Ohio. The tournament was originally conceived in 1939, and the tournament bracket contains the conference champions of all Division I conferences. The remaining spots in the NCAA tournament are comprised of at-large bids that are picked by the NCAA selection committee. The committee uses a number of factors to determine the rest of the field to include their won/loss records, rankings, and RPI information.
Of the conferences who have automatic bids to the tournament, only the Ivy League awards their automatic bid to the regular season champion since they do not play a post-season tournament. When you are reading about teams who are hoping for at-large bids, those who have had OK to mediocre years, but not poor enough to be out of contention for making the tournament are considered to be on the "bubble" or "bubble teams" for making the tournament.
The NCAA tournament has four regions identified with the NCAA Tournament bracket is released on the evening of the final conference tournament championship games. Within each region, the teams are seeded or ranked from 1 to 16. In the opening round of the tournament the number 1 seed will play the number 16, number 2 plays number 15, and so forth. The idea being that the better you do during the season, the better or lower (closer to 1) your seed will be.
The NCAA tournament no longer has a 3rd place game, but has had one in its history with the last one occurring in 1981. The regions also had 3rd place games occurring as late as 1975. A term that has been applied to underdogs in the NCAA tournament who do well is to be labeled a "Cinderella" team. This is when a team succeeds against higher seeded teams and proceeds deep into the tournament bracket. Normally, these occur in the early rounds of the tournament with the #15 seed upsetting the #2 seed four times in the history of the tournament. There has never been a #1 seed lose to a #16 seed since the tournament went to a 64/65/68 team format.
The UCLA Bruins hold the record for the school with the most NCAA Tournament titles with 11, while the Kentucky Wildcats have 7, and the Indiana Hoosiers and North Carolina Tar Heels each have 5 national titles respectively.
The notional 2013 NCAA Tournament schedule (below) and past year's formats are available for your use.
The 2013 conference basketball tournament schedules are being posted based on available information from the respective leagues. If the respective conference tournament bracket has not been released, then the schedule from last season is used as the basis for update until the final schedule is released.

In recent years, partly due to the development of more advanced culture media, certain IVF-clinics have started to prolong the culture to the blastocyst stage in order to increase the possibilities to choose optimal embryos for replacement.
This sequence shows in time-lapse, two embryos at the eight-cell stage developing quite different, where one degenerates while the other expands and approaches the fully developed blastocyst stage. It is not possible to know whether the degenerating embryo could have developed normally if replaced earlier, but in this sequence only one embryo became a blastocyst. This blastocyst has morphological signs of normality with volume expansion and thinning of the zona pellucida.

MSN is reporting that Nicole Kidman will appear in a new Jimmy Choo ad.
Wait…What? That's Nicole Kidman?
There is no way. I look more like Nicole Kidman (and I look nothing like her) than whoever this is in the photo.
See the photo for yourself right HERE.
Do you think it looks like her?

A true brand leader in quality and style, the Bannister continues to wow with sleek, polished, hand finished leather craftsmanship.
Style code:
This classic heritage tennis shoe, designed in England by Head Designer Asher Clark and Made in Portugal, effortlessly marries ancient wisdom with modern technology. You'll get total flexibility from the unlined leather as your feet behave as if they are barefoot in style. The 4mm sole is stiffer than other VIVOBAREFOOT shoes but is still allows your Great Toe to engage rapidly with the ground as well as independent rear and fore-foot movement.
The Bannister holds its own in terms of style, quality and barefoot principles; staying true to our unique Pure Barefoot Technology principles and built to our high standards. Your feet will thank you for it as you'll be using them as nature intended.
Handcut Bannister Ladies - Not what I ordered.
Handcut Bannister Ladies - They looked and felt lovely but were the wrong colour and were not replaced with the correct one. Would be nice to have some feedback as to whether you could actually supply the correct ones....
Handcut Bannister Ladies - The 40s are too small for my size 9 feet and the 41s are too large. There are no 1/2 sizes available at this range.
Handcut Bannister White Ladies - perfect, on time
Handcut Bannister Ladies - I just can't find words to describe this marvelous shoes.
Handcut Bannister Ladies - Will not really know until I've broken them in properly
Handcut Bannister Ladies - Soles are stiffer than I had expected, but otherwise as advertised, and the right size this time. ;)
Handcut Bannister Ladies - Beautiful comfy great
Handcut Bannister Ladies - A bit stiff to start with, but I think they'll be good.
Handcut Bannister Ladies - the shoes does not seem barefoot, sole is not flexible
Handcut Bannister Ladies - Excellent online service.
Handcut Bannister Ladies - Yah though they are a little squeaky.
Handcut Bannister Ladies - Very stiff shoes, not supple at all and fairly unconfortable to walk with.
Handcut Bannister Ladies - These were not comfortable for me. I thought they would be softer. I returned them & got a swift refund. Great customer service!
Handcut Bannister Ladies - I like the idea of these shoes but the sizing was off and the look with the leather was different than expected. If these were made in canvas is much more prefer them!
Handcut Bannister Ladies - They felt a bit stiff to begin with but as I am wearing them more, they are easing a bit - they look super
Handcut Bannister Ladies - Unfortunately as I ordered online, I didn't appreciate how ugly the shoes look on big feet (UK size 7). Very comfortable though and no rubbing!
Handcut Bannister Ladies - Great!
Handcut Bannister Ladies - style is great. i'm a little concerned about how long the shoe laces will last as there's already a slight tear.
Handcut Bannister Ladies - You can see the craftsmanship that went into these shoes. There is exceptional attention to detail. Definitely a luxury shoe and worth the price! I will say now I have not tested these outside of my apartment yet, so I can't speak to how they will wear. The sole is thicker and a bit more stiff than the other Vivobarefoot shoes. I usually wear a 7.5-8 and got the 7.5. There is some extra room in the toe area, but I would not want to go smaller. The shoe fits well everywhere else and having more room for my toes is okay for me! I also have the Gobi II Desert boot in a 7.5 and need to wear an insole in that, so they are smaller than the Gobi, if that helps for reference. The box says they have a removable insole, but I do not think that is the case. They are lined with leather. The laces are leather as well. Not sure how they will hold up, but easy enough to replace with leather lacing from a craft store or regular laces. I cannot stop staring at these shoes! Will try to post once I've worn them a bit.
Handcut Bannister White Ladies - I am a regular Vivobarefoot customer. Very comfortable shoes
Handcut Bannister White Ladies - I really like these bannisters though I think they are not really for wearing in the rain due to leather section on sole. I really hope Vivo will continue to bring out more stylish options in the stylish women's range. Much as I would like to, I cannot wear the penny loafers, for example, as 39 is too small and 40 gapes around toe area as i simply do not have a rounded toe form. More designs for narrower feet please - I am a convert with nothing to buy!!
Handcut Bannister White Ladies - Too big in size
Handcut Bannister White Ladies - The return/refund process could be more professional. For example, in showing clear options between refund and exchange. I wanted to exchange my shoes since they sent the wrong size, but they refunded me instead since the sheet didn't specify which one I wanted.
Handcut Bannister Ladies - The shoes are great now, though the size 6 was way too big and I had to re-order a 5, (i always wear a size 6 so I think that a size issue may have occurred during the manufacturing process).
Handcut Bannister White Ladies - Amazing quality footwear. Great fit even for slender feet.
Handcut Bannister Ladies - The first pair were way too big so I sent for a smaller pair which are gorgeous and fit really well. This could be a common problem as I always wear size six and I have ended up with a five.
Handcut Bannister Ladies - I got then with a leather shoelaces. My husband got textile ones... Hmmm
A but stiff at first but got softer with wearing.
Handcut Bannister White Ladies - They are beautiful, the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn.
Handcut Bannister White Ladies - Really comfortable.
Handcut Bannister Ladies - My best pair of shoes since I had foot surgery in August!! My doctor warned me that I would have to wear inserts from now on, but i refused to believe him. Now I know I am right - let the foot have space and it will do fine. Most shoes are too narrow and that puts the wrong pressure on the metatarsal bones and throws off the normal gait and balance - even though I have steel pins in part of my foot I am as close to barefoot as it gets!!
Handcut Bannister Ladies - Well made however the fit was not good (narrow) so I had to send these back.
Handcut Bannister Ladies - These are marvellous. So luxurious and such a simple design
Bannister Ladies - Lovely shoe, sizing totally incorrect, cost me €30 to return (which I consider the fault of Vivobarefoot) as the shoe is a full size bigger than any other vivobarefoot shoe I own (that's 6 pairs) resulting in a total cost of €210 for the shoes.... they're nice but I feel I've been ripped off
Bannister Ladies - Well made & comfortable
Bannister Ladies - Beau look ; très confortables (bien larges) ; belle qualité.
Mais : en ce moment il pleut beaucoup chez moi et j'ai constaté l'apparition d'une sorte de liseré tortueux sous la bande jaune...???

Receptions at the Grace, pitching in for the Rehab
In the main Gallery- "20 to Watch: New Art in Austin" introduces 20 emerging artists from Central Texas whose work represents the cutting-edge of art.
This exhibit is sponsored by:
Ralph and Jill Heaven; Doug and Nita Drawe; Mark and Enga Santman; Keith Robinson; S.M. and Portia Moore; Tinlark Gallery, Hollywood, CA. It will be hanging until April 9.
Music by Abilene Christian University Steel Drum Band, directed by Allen Teel, Ph.D., could be heard all over The Grace.
On the third floor you will find "The Art Guys: Failed Schemes and Pipe Dreams." They have been around for a long time as a Houston artist team of Michael Galbreth and Jack Massing. The exhibit features works of art including drawings over a twenty-five year period; maquettes, ephemera and documentation. It may be outlandish, wacky, impossible (?) because a good crowd viewed it and expressed disbelief. Spotted among the viewers: Jessica Dulle; Larry, Kathie Walker, and Maya Millar; Margaret Mary Martinez; Joe and Gail Russey; Glenn and Sue McWilliams; Phil and Kathy Morehead; Linda Murray; Frances Yaks; Larry and Judy Godfrey; Douglas and Mary Anne Graves of Lawn.
On "'money night" at the Country Club -- Charles Bass, Ph.D. and wife Mary Kate Bass were visiting his mother Harriet Bass and grandmother Mary E. W. Jones. For a temporary time they are living in Atlanta, GA while Charlie is pursuing studies in medical school They were able to see many of their friends, among whom were Robert Barnes, Ph.D. and Dorothy Barnes, Ph.D.
With the proclamation "Something to cheer about!" Sam and Brady Sloane hosted in their home a fun party for politically dressed guests who wanted to view inaugural-after-dark scenes. Many challenging items were worn old buttons: Roosevelt, Kefauver; Harriman; Nixon; an old All the Way with LBJ hat; Favors were musical CDs. In the mingling group:. Kip and Susan Davis; Charlie and Betty Hukill; Britt and Jill Lindsey; Derral and Nancy Reed; Jennifer Nichols; Tom, Ph.D. and Pebbles Lee; Linda Stricklin; Bird Thomas, et al.
New leaders at Hendrick Home for Children took office at the annual meeting at Abilene Country Club. Retiring after three years as Chair of the Board, Grady Barr handed the gavel to Dusty Rhodes, new Chairman; Judge Lee Hamilton will serve as Vice chairman; Joe Crawford Secretary/Treasurer. Other Trustees present: Amber Cree; Buddy Napier; Darlene Stevens; Leland Kelley; Howard Wilkins.
Meetings started again after the holidays came to a halt: Nancy Estes with Cancer Services Network presided: year-end report on client numbers; dues collected to help underwrite support groups (two new ones: one in Abilene and one in Eastland); volunteer opportunities were presented for 09.
Center for Contemporary Arts: Board Meeting wherein Carl Childers presided: ideas for Fundraisers were all great one especially will have interest and merit and MizDoNot can hardly wait to tell.
Abilenians look forward to the Annual Telethon which benefits West Texas Rehabilitation Center. Its 39th successful endeavor has just been completed. MizC certainly kept her listening ear tuned to the progress of items 917 and 552 in the Auction, but they soared above her wallet about 11 p.m.
One highlight of the evening was when Woody Gilliland, REHAB President, recognized Carl S. Pete Cook with the prestigious Billy Mac Commitment Award.
For 33 years, Cris and Liz Herrera at Casa Herrera Restaurant have hosted the Preview Party which kicks off this Annual Telethon. When Gilliland presented the Herreras with Bob Moorhouse's Photography Book (famous Pitchford Ranch) as a taken of appreciation, they acknowledged hosting this party is a way they can help the Center which operates facilities in Abilene, San Angelo and Ozona.
It is traditional that celebrities who come to Abilene to raise money for patient care can be seen at Casa Herrera the night before so they can enjoy good Mexican food and see old friends who have shown them hospitality, i.e., Anacani (formerly with Lawrence Welk Band and one who never ages in style nor spirit); Bill and Susan Hayes (Days of Our Lives Fame; wonder how many quilts they have from the Rehab Auction?); the traditional MC -- Charlie Chase from Nashville; Brad Maule (General Hospital fame; now teaching at Stephen F. Austin University at Nacogdoches); Red Steagall (author and western singer) and wife Gayle from Fort Worth; et al.
While Abilene's own Twyla Foreman performed a voice medley, Miz CCC was seeing: John (president of Rehab Board) and wife Barbara Berry (she worked on Texas A&M University Quilt those quilts brought Top Dollar); H.C. and Lanita Zachry; David and Karen Ballard; Jerry Doty; Russell Haynes and son Preston (who was attending this party as a toddler); Shirley Smith; Bitsy Meyers.
There have been different challenges in Rehab's financial history, but second and third generation supporters continue to help REHAB have a solid, secure bottom line.
Burgess Thomas is not only attractive, likable, fun but a marvelous photographer, as she proved to the Abilene Woman's Club last Friday. She was introduced by Anna Powell, chair of the Art Department. Her topic was "Beauty in Our Own Backyards" and actually showed scenes taken in the yards of several members who were present (Bobbie Gee; Micki Wright); other scenes were familiar ones., i.e.- some accessories of the old Jefferson Davis Magee home (after destruction from a raging fire) at the corner of North Third and Clinton Streets.
Among guests were: Martha Kiel; Diana Higgins; Linda Stricklin; Sarah Mulkey.
MizSeeAll needs to clarify some attendees she listed last week as being present at the Opening of the New Library Branch: Don Wright was with his wife Bev Wright; and Rue Ford was with her husband Jerry Ford.

The MICC is to be a world-class theme park, lifestyle hotel and entertainment tourist destination located on an 895-acre site situated north of Mumbai, India. This multifunctional project is composed of a theme park for 10 million visitors, 10,000 hotel rooms, 2,000 residential units and lifestyle components such as retail, spa, restaurants and cultural centers (including 2,000-seat concert hall).
The proposed park is based on the shared ideal of human creativity and draws inspiration from diverse sources: Indian culture, symbolism and cosmology, the human body as well as fabled lost cities. The signature element of the project is definitely its layout in the iconic shape of the double helix of the human DNA – the original matrix for creativity and humanity. The two interlaced strips mark the perimeter of the development and include all hotels and residential units. The strips also delineate four central north-south loops along a central axis; these loops act as focal points for specific activities. This unique plan allows for the project to be developed in 4 zones: the Global Pagoda Loop, the Theme Park Loop, the Lifestyle Loop and the Residential Loop. The overall scheme provides an increased level of synergy between the different components and facilitates overall accessibility by means of a continuous monorail system connecting the four loops.
Furthermore, the project radically differs from conventional theme park schemes in that it proposes a reduced ecological footprint and emphasises sustainability. In fact, the master plan rethinks the conventional 'Disney' theme park model by eliminating functional zoning of program components (resort, theme park, leisure, support, etc.) and instead proposes an integrated, dynamic and compact development, much like a dense urban environment. It also differs from customary commercial planning wisdom by relying on authenticity as a key driving value and by providing continuous stimulation of higher-level thinking such as problem-solving and creativity in park visitors.

I personally love safe paw ice melt. Living in New York and other snowy wintry states lets face it..You need a good ice melt! I was always sceptical of a lot of ice melts on the market. I don't want anything toxic around my home, pets and my children. I was so excited when I discovered the Safe Paw Ice Melt.
A couple of things I love about Safe Paw is that it contains no salt. Did you know that Ice melter's that contain salt is harmful to your pets, children and the environment? Well, it is. Another thing I love about this product is its coloring. Its a green colored pellet which helps you and the consumer distinguish it from rock salt and salt based ice melter's. This product is also safe on plants, shrubs, asphalt, concrete, pavers and flooring.
This is also a great product to use if you own a businesses so your customers can avoid slipping and can also watch there step!
"Gaia Enterprises,, Inc, the manufactures of Safe Paw hire approximately 250 adults with disability to produce there product instead of using machinery. In a time where our economy is suffering, they stay focused on providing jobs with benefits to people who generally have a rougher time finding work than others. Even though machines could save money on the cost of the product, they stand for something bigger.
Now lets talk about how this product works:
No other ice and snow melter works like Safe Paw. It is totally unique. Safe Paw is a patented dual-effect compound made of a modified crystalline amide core infused with special glycol admixture and traction agents.
This composition gives Safe Paw a two-way timed released action. The liquid component starts melting ice instantly while breaking surface tension. This allows the crystal-core to penetrate and destabilize ice which speeds up melting. All this while proprietary traction agent provides slip protection.
Safe Paw gives you another advantage. Unlike other products, Safe Paw attracts solar heat to provide extra melting-power during daylight hours.
Once Safe Paw has melted the ice and snow, it leaves an invisible "shield" that prevents ice from sticking to surfaces for up to 3 days. This "Teflon effect" makes shoveling easier.
How to Use Safe Paw:
•Safe Paw is highly concentrated. You don't need to use as much Safe Paw as you would use with salt or other ice melter's.
•Safe Paw retains heat better than other ice melter's. Store indoors, at room temperature, to ensure maximum performance.
•Spread Safe Paw before winter precipitation. This will create a barrier that prevents ice from bonding to surfaces for about 3 days. If there is accumulation within that period, you won't have to chip away at underlying ice when shoveling.
•Ice melter's sometimes need a little assistance on black ice. Scratch or roughen black ice with a shovel before applying Safe Paw. Once the surface tension is broken, Safe Paw will go to work.
•Safe Paw is a great traction agent. Keeping a jug in the car can help you get out of a slippery situation. If your car gets stuck in snow or ice, clear the ruts and sprinkle Safe Paw around tires to increase traction.
•Safe Paw is very effective so you don't need to use as much as other products. Applying excessive amounts may lead to the browning of grass or temporarily coloring surfaces. If this occurs, reduce the amount of Safe Paw you are using and follow these steps: ◦If grass browns, water the affected area and hold off on fertilizing. Let nature take its course. The color should return by the end of spring.
◦Surface coloring from overuse is temporary and will fade over time when exposed to water and sunlight. To speed up the fading process use OxyClean or a similar product.
•Safe Paw is 100% salt-free and environmentally safe so you can use it in more places than salt-based ice melter's. Use Safe Paw anywhere you are concerned about ice including roofs, gutters, cars, stairs, decking, and flooring.
If you have not tried Safe Paw yet I guarantee you will love it! Safe Paw may be purchased in a 35 lb Bucket or 8 lb Jug at www.OnlinePetDepot.com

Have you ever smelled a dog treat and said.. Mmmmm these smell so good i can just taste one! Well, fruitables treats smells delicious. These treats are small and make a great training treat as well.
These little treats have amazing health benefits from natural and organic superfoods. Rich in Antioxidants, Vitamins A, C, and E…our fruits and vegetables are selected as much for their advanced nutritional benefits as their taste. Superfoods can help your dog live a healthier, fitter, and longer life.
These delicious crunchy treats come in 5 different flavors. Pumpkin Blueberry, Pumpkin Apple, Pumpkin Banana, Pumpkin Cranberry, SweetPotato Pecan.
You must try the NEW Chewy Skinny Minis. My dogs love these as well. They come in 3 different flavors..Apple Bacon, Yam Berry & Pumpkin Mango.

Zukes Z Ridge bones have been replaced by Z-Bones
These treats are made in the USA. All Natural, Wheat free, Corn Free, Grain Free, Soy Free & Highly digestible.
They have not changed the formulas in these bones. What they have done is enhanced these bones adding different things to each one to make them a little better.

Spinach and Apple has been added to there Original, Pumpkin to the Carrot, and more berries to the Cranberry.

Paragon Pet Treats are a great healthy dental treat for dogs. They are naturally vegetable & potato-based and containing no chemical additives, they are designed to help clean the teeth and freshen the breath by encouraging dogs to indulge in their natural instinct to chew.
There variety of textures keeps dogs interested in chewing for longer, enabling the many small protrusions on the crocodile and hedgehog shapes to get right in between the teeth to do a thorough cleaning job.
These treats usually take my dog 20-30 minutes to work through them. The Hedgehog and the Alligators are his favorite shapes. They come in 3 different colors but the they taste the same.
What I love about these treats mostly is that they are HEALTHY. They have no CORN, WHEAT, SOY, GLUTENS and 100% digestible. There are also a low calorie treat.
These treats come in many other shapes and sizes. If your looking for a healthy treat. Try these for sure.]]>
There are many different ways to house train puppies. One option for house training your puppy is to teach him to pee on a house training pad.
Teaching your puppy to pee on a pad is not that hard but takes a little bit of patience. There are many training pads designed for the purpose. Try to pick a training pad that wont ruin your floors and maybe ones you can get a couple of uses out of. Good Habbit Training Pads are what works for my dogs. They come in Pink for the Girls and Blue for the boys. They also have the sticky adhesives underneath to prevent the pads from sliding all over your floors and they are very absorbent.
You can purchase these pads in packs of 50 or 100. I always purchase the 100 count boxes. I go through them quickly and its much more cost effective.
Berry Balance
A natural cranberry and blueberry extract with marshmallow and vitamin C to help support the healthy functioning of the urinary tract. For use in cats and dogs prone to struvite crystals and bladder infections. This product helps to balance urinary tract pH, to dissolve struvite (Magnesium-Ammonium-Phosphate) crystals, which may develop in urine if it is too alkaline.
Cranberries and blueberries contain a substance called Hippuric Acid that has been shown in recent studies to have antibiotic activity, which helps to prevent bacteria such as E. coli from adhering to the bladder wall, thus inhibiting the development of infections.
Blueberries contain powerful antioxidants, which cleanse the body of harmful free radicals and promote good health. They are also thought to be helpful for bone and joint problems associated with free radical damage. Did you know that we also use blueberries and cranberries in our dry dog and cat foods?
Urinary tract blockages and infections are serious conditions and immediate veterinary attention should be sought if your pet shows signs of frequent urination, discomfort, or straining. Berry-Balance can be used to support the urinary tract and help reduce the risk of further infection or struvite formation. This product should not be used for calcium-oxalate crystals, nor should it be used in conjunction with a medical or commercial "acidifying" diet.
Increased stress can predispose pets (especially cats) to urinary tract disorders because fear can lead to reluctance to make trips to the yard or litter box and drinking water. Increased fluid intake is recommended for animals prone to urinary tract problems. Canned foods provide more moisture than dry kibble, and plenty of fresh drinking water should be available at all times.

Guinea pigs love fruits and vegetables about as much as humans love ice cream and candy, which is great because fruits and vegetables are an important part of their diet and keep them happy and healthy! Different guinea pigs have different preferences, but generally, they love to sample a variety of different fruits and veggies. With my guinea pigs, carrots, peppers and dark lettuces are a surefire hit. If you encounter a guinea pig that is picky and won't eat any fresh produce, talk with your veterinarian about your options for vitamin C fortified pellets like Oxbow and just make sure you get the right nourishment into your little friend. Timothy hay is important for there diet as well.
Here is a list of some of the fruits and vegetables that guinea pigs particularly love and that give them the best nutritional benefits. Fruits are high in sugar so it's best to view them more as treats, and avoid any sudden major changes in diet until you know how your guinea pig's tummy reacts to things:
• Red Pepper (or green/yellow pepper. Red has the highest vitamin C concentration)
• Carrots – both the root and the green tops are perfectly safe for your guinea pig.
• Apples – just make sure they don't have any seeds.
• Oranges
• Leafy greens like red lettuce, romaine, Boston lettuce, (be sure to feed leafy vegetables in moderation to avoid diarrhea, and feed spinach a bit sparingly to avoid potential kidney problems.)
• Cucumbers
• Broccoli (in moderation since it can be gassy and cause a gas pain)
• Green beans
• Grapes
• Bananas
• Dandelion Greens
• strawberries (in moderation)
• oranges or clementines. A helpful way to feed these to your piggie if they're being picky is to scoop out some pulp from half an orange and leave some in it so they can lick it without needing to chew on it if they're not diggin' the texture
• spinach
• cherry tomatoes in moderation
• cilantro
• dandelion greens
• parsley – either curly or flat. They love it and it smells delicious when you're tearing some sprigs off the bunch to give it to them!
Foods you CAN NOT Feed your guinea pig:
Iceberg lettuce – this won't kill your guinea pig if you give him or her a little piece, but it has virtually no nutritional value, is quite fibrous and watery. It's been known to give guinea pigs diarrhea. With the great selection of other more leafy, dark lettuces available, just avoid this one and go with one of the others.

Salt Lake Photographer l Cute sistersMay 30, 2014
Remember this cutie pie? She was about 3 months old when I first took her pictures. What a bright eyed, beautiful little thing!
Well…I got the privilege of photographing her again and this time there was yet another CUTIE PIE that I got to photograph, her little sister. I think it's so fun to see the differences in siblings. Big sister was so cute will all her smiles and little sister was quiet and reserved for me. In fact, she wanted nothing to do with pictures…she just ran and ran…and ran. Do you want to know the best thing about 1 year olds that run? They keep my legs in shape ha ha! No, while my legs were hurting after squatting down and chasing her, the best thing is that they can't run forever and I was able to get some really cute shots in those MOMENTS where she stopped and then started to run again.
Pretty darn cute AND I got to do another little session with these girlies too! The day we had our first session down town Salt Lake, the weather was iffy to say the least. It ended up raining and we still had CAKE pictures to do…
So ya, we had a LOT of fun! These cuties were so fun!

NORMAN — On a day that was all about talk, three words told you all you need to know about the new era of Oklahoma men's basketball.
"Practices are open."
NORMAN — On a day that was all about talk, three words told you all you need to know about the new era of Oklahoma men's basketball.
"Practices are open."
I can't be sure if several hundred folks inside McCasland Field House gasped when new Sooner coach Lon Kruger said that Monday afternoon, or if that was just me.
Open practices? Not just during the offseason? Not only for the first couple weeks of the season?
All the time?
"Any time, you can come out and watch," Kruger told the crimson-clad masses during his formal introduction. "I know you're going to have suggestions later on. You might want to come out now and give us those suggestions up front, then you can have the credit or the blame or however it works out."
He chuckled.
Had Bob Stoops not been in the front row where I could see him, I would've guessed the Sooner football coach would've stroked out at the thought.
This degree of openness isn't the norm for most big-time college coaches at high-profile programs. Most of them would rather give you a spare key and a map to their house than open their practices.
Few of them allow media inside, even on a limited basis.
Even fewer coaches allow fans. They think spies are everywhere, cell phone cameras are recording every play, and state secrets are sure to be splashed across the Internet if they let the Average Joe and Jenni into practice.
But now, any time you want to head out to the Lloyd Noble Center and see what Lon and fellas are doing, you're more than welcome.
"We've always done it," Kruger said of having open practices. "We have no secrets."
This is not normal stuff, people. A college coach professing that he has no secrets is like a pyromaniac saying he has no matches.
But Kruger seems to be more than open to openness. He wants to bring back former players. He wants to engage past coaches. He even plans to have Billy Tubbs at practice on a regular basis.
Still, it's one thing to embrace the program's history. It's quite another to have an open-door policy when the Sooners are trying to work on a plan to hang with the Longhorns or beat the Jayhawks.
Kruger has his motives for opening practice, of course, but they're all good ones.

Vin Diesel Hints at Marvel Phase 3 Plans and "Merging of Brands"
It was announced over the summer that Vin Diesel will be voicing Groot in 'Guardians of the Galaxy,' but the actor has also been hinting at his involvement with a bigger Marvel project for Phase 3, which we won't see for a few more years. While it's all still very vague and hush-hush, the actor recently confirmed his further involvement with the studio, teasing the mysterious new project and hinting at a "merging of brands." All right, Vin, we're listening.

WCCM8 Mini-symposium 63: Modeling Robustness and Structural Reliability Analysis
30 Jun 2008 - 12:00am
4 Jul 2008 - 12:00am
James L. Beck*, Gerhart I. Schuëller† AND Héctor A. Jensen#
Robustness in the prediction of structural response is an essential requirement of structural analysis for quality assurance. Errors in predictions can arise from many possible sources, such as uncertainty and variability in the structural boundary conditions, loads and material properties, and incomplete model capabilities. During design and operation, the acceptable, or desired, structural performance is usually defined in terms of specified response quantities not exceeding certain limits, such as interstory drift limits or floor acceleration limits. To assess the structural performance, it is important that robust predictions are made that treat all the uncertainties, from modelling future loads to modelling the structural behaviour. This leads naturally to the concept of robust reliability which quantifies the confidence that the analyst has that the design, when constructed, will meet the design specifications. Maximization of the robust reliability could be used, for example, to search for an optimal robust design among a feasible set of designs.

Research Positions in Fuzzy Finite Elements
Several PhD and post-doctoral research positions are currently vacant within the framework of a recently started SBO-project of the Institute for the Promotion of Innovation by Science and Technology in Flanders, Belgium (IWT, www.iwt.be).
This 4-year project involves the study and development of methods for dealing with uncertainty in finite element calculations. More specifically, this project aims at the development of a generic approach for implementing a fuzzy finite element method. It also focusses on the possible extension of this approach to other non-probabilistic or hybrid non-deterministic techniques, as e.g. imprecise probabilities, info-gap and probability boxes. Next to the development of algorithms and numerical implementation strategies, the project focuses explicitly on the actual application of these novel non-deterministic numerical simulation techniques for design purposes.
This project assembles a consortium of eight prominent Flemish partners with academic as well as industrial background in the field of non-deterministic numerical modeling techniques. Vacancies for PhD students as well as post-doctoral researchers are currently available at the five involved academic research partners in two leading Flemish universities:

The resulting book, cryptically titled Take Ivy, is pure genius. The photo book was out of print until a few years ago when a small run was re-released, only to immediately sell out. I have tried to recreate the spirit of the book as best I can through these scans. Further proof that preppy / Ivy League style transcends time and trends.

The Steelers roster has him listed as second string behind Ramon Foster. Is Decastro now only going to be out a few weeks?
The Steelers roster has him listed as second string behind Ramon Foster. Is Decastro now only going to be out a few weeks?
From what I hear he may go on this new 8 week IR.....which will give the Steelers the ability to add a little depth. I believe they can make that happen tomorrow!!
However, the "little depth" many expect them to add is to bring everyone's favoriate (well, at least Chadman's favorite anyway) Trai Essex back into the fold.
Final Ruthless Mock:
1.22 CB Marcus Peters, 6'0" 197 lbs., Washington
2.56 FS Damarious Randall, 5'11" 196 lbs., Arizona State
3.87 TE Clive Walford, 6'4" 251 lbs., Miami
4.121 DE Henry Anderson, 6'6" 294 lbs., Stanford
5.160 WR Titus Davis, 6'1" 196 lbs., Central Michigan
6.199 OLB Kyle Emanuel, 6'3" 255 lbs., North Dakota State
6.212c OLB Max Valles, 6'5" 251 lbs., Virginia
7.239 RB John Crockett, 6'0" 217 lbs., North Dakota State
by Jim Wexell
Sept. 4, 2012
"The Steelers can put DeCastro on injured reserve after 4 p.m. Tuesday, thereby qualifying him for a return after midseason. The Steelers are expected to sign Trai Essex to replace DeCastro, but doing so next week could save the team money as well as keep their options open for a serious injury at a more important position, like quarterback.
The Steelers normally activate only seven offensive linemen, so Mike Adams (LT-RT) and Doug Legursky (C-G) should provide enough flexibility for Denver."
I've read a lot of people speculating that DeCastro won't be placed on the short IR, at least not right away, to give the team some flexibility in case somebody else is injured later.
If the move is made for Essex, it would make sense for the Steelers to wait until after week 1 so that his salary is not guaranteed.

directed by Jonathan Demme
by Walter Chaw Not long after the death of his dementia-stricken father and in the four days preceding an operation to fix a potentially fatal brain aneurysm, Young recorded "Prairie Road", then called Jonathan Demme post-operation to say that he was taking some time off and interested in making a movie. Demme's best film is still a tossup between Swimming to Cambodia and Stop Making Sense--his forays into mainstream filmmaking (The Silence of the Lambs, Philadelphia) tending towards exactly the kind of slick populism his documents of performance pieces never seem to. His latest, Neil Young: Heart of Gold, is a return to form for a filmmaker who might be our best chronicler of the glorious syncopations of rhythm and flow: a deft, evocative film that finds new poignancy in Young's voluminous back catalogue while allowing cuts from "Prairie Wind" the kind of metaphysical room its title promises.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — It's not that New York Mets starter Dillon Gee pitched poorly, he just wasn't as good as San Diego Padres counterpart Tyson Ross.
Ross shut down the surging Mets' bats in a strong seven-inning performance, and the Padres snapped the Mets' four-game winning streak with a 6-0 victory on Saturday night.
In his second start since a lengthy stint on the disabled list, Gee (4-2) lasted only five innings – his shortest outing of the season. He allowed four runs, including two on mistake pitches that the Padres hit for home runs. A bad throw from outfielder Kirk Nieuwenhuis brought in another run.
Gee struck out eight and didn't walk a batter.
"He was pitching good," Mets manager Terry Collins said. "His stuff was good. He finished up strong but again this isn't about one guy. You have to hit, that's the name of the game."
The Mets were challenged there, unable to break through against Ross and three relievers.
Gee wasn't as impressive as he was in his first start since a strained right lat sidelined him for two months. Last week against Atlanta, Gee worked seven innings and surrendered one run and six hits.
On Saturday he was looking for his second straight win and fourth in five decisions.
"I wasn't locating well for a while," Gee said. "I pitched behind guys, and that makes it tough when I do that. Good pitchers have to really locate when they're throwing 2-0, 3-0, 3-1, 2-1, stuff like that."
Gee's previous six starts produced a 1.35 ERA and at least six innings of work in each outing.
But the Padres had a rare offensive night as Yasmani Grandal, Will Venable and Seth Smith homered. San Diego won for the third time in 11 games; the Mets had won nine of 11.
"There were some good swings on good counts," Padres manager Bud Black said.
Ross (8-10) allowed only four hits in seven innings. He struck out six and issued three walks.
"That's why he's on the All-Star team," Collins said.
Ross didn't surrender a hit in the first four innings. His bid to throw the first no-hitter in Padres history was derailed by Travis d'Arnaud's four-hopper that ricocheted off third base for an infield single.
The Mets were stymied by Ross' mid-90s fastball, a tight sinker and a biting slider.
"He had a great sinker and of course that plus-slider," Collins said. "He had some good changeups."
New York didn't have a runner reach scoring position until the seventh when Lucas Duda singled, Nieuwenhuis walked, and Juan Lagares singled to load the bases. But Ruben Tejada struck out to end the threat.
Gee was stranded on first after a two-out walk in the second inning, and d'Arnaud was erased at second on a double play after his single in the fifth.
Pinch-hitter Eric Young Jr. walked with one out in the sixth inning, but was thrown out by Grandal when he tried to steal second. Curtis Granderson followed with the Mets' second hit, but Daniel Murphy grounded out to Ross.
Smith's homer in the sixth pushed the Padres ahead 5-0.
"I definitely want to try to get deeper into games," Gee said. "There's really no excuse for it, it was just a night I lost it there for a while.
"I couldn't locate, I couldn't repeat the mechanics. On the positive side I felt good the way I finished and hopefully I can continue that on my next start."
The Mets were shut out for the second time by the Padres, and for the eighth time this season.
NOTES: After Friday's trade of RHP Huston Street to the Angels, RHP Joaquin Benoit will become the Padres closer. RHP Kevin Quackenbush is the top candidate to work the eighth inning. … RHP Andrew Cashner, who is on the DL, threw on Saturday as he tested his sore right shoulder and neck. … SS Everth Cabrera (strained left hamstring) has resumed running and could play in a minor league game next week. … Mets RHP Jon Niese (left shoulder strain) is expected to start on Monday at Seattle. RHP Daisuke Matsuzaka is working out of the bullpen with the expectation that Niese will rejoin the rotation. … Mets RHP Zack Wheeler (5-8, 3.90) faces Padres RHP Odrisamer Despaigne (2-1, 1.35) in Sunday's series finale.
