Pet Population And Pet Owner Trends In The U.S.: Fish, Birds, Reptiles, And Small Animals
NEW YORK, Feb. 14, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue: Pet Population and Pet Owner Trends in the U.S.: Fish, Birds, Reptiles, and Small Animalshttp://www.reportlinker.com/p01095496/Pet-Population-and-Pet-Owner-Trends-in-the-US-Fish-Birds-Reptiles-and-Small-Animals.html#utm_source=prnewswire&utm_medium=pr&utm_campaign=Fish_and_Seafood There is a lot more to the pet industry than dogs and cats. While research into the human-animal bond tends to focus on the special relationship between people and dogs that has evolved over thousands of years, today's pet owners do not limit their connection with animals to dogs—or cats—alone. A wide range of other animals have found their way into the households and affections of pet lovers. American pet owners live in the company of 116 million fish, birds, small animals and reptiles. Fish tanks can be found in 7.2 million households and bird cages in 4.6 million households. Reptiles are pets in 1.8 million households. Tens of millions of adults—and their kids—enjoy the companionship of non-canines and non–felines. For example, 15.6 million adults reside in households with fish and 10.4 million take pleasure in the company of birds. Rabbits warm the hearts and engage the children of 2.5 million adults. These pet owners represent big business for the pet industry. They groom and board their birds, buy toys for their iguanas, purchase medications for their turtles, take their gerbils to the vet, light and decorate their fish tanks and, of course, buy food for all of the tens of millions of pets that they own besides their cats and dogs. The spending power of owners of pets other than cats and dogs has a significant impact on the bottom line of marketers and retailers of pet products and services. This all new Packaged Facts report shows why owners of pets other than dogs and cats represent a key segment for a pet industry beleaguered by the recession. After a noticeable recessionary slump, the report offers strong evidence that ownership of fish, birds and small animals is on the rebound. The report highlights how marketers can take advantage of an improving market and suggests what they can do to leverage the connection consumers have with these pets.

The whole genome sequencing was done in conjunction with the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital – Washington University Pediatric Cancer Genome Project. The project has sequenced the complete normal and cancer genomes of more than 600 children and adolescents with some of the most aggressive and least understood cancers.Near haploid ALL was characterized by alterations in six genes and increased activity in key pathways that help regulate cell division and development. Disruption of these pathways, known as Ras and PI3K, has been linked to other cancers. The changes were found in 71 percent of near haploid ALL patients and included deletion of the NF1 gene. The gene had not previously been linked to high-risk leukemia. Other alterations involved the genes NRAS, KRAS, MAPK1, FLT3 and PTPN11.

Lake Braddock alumnus Seth Casana, never being one to pass up a deal, responded the next day. He spent a weekend hauling 150 back to his home in Fredericksburg, hats and all. He also gladly acquired a battered but solid sousaphone from the LBSS music director, Roy Holder. Armed with these new resources, a project that had merely been an idea suddenly became reality.
Lars Holmstrom and Chris Park, fellow Fredericksburg musicians, had been scheming with Casana to create the ultimate street brass band. The concept was clear: all brass and percussion, all acoustic, all mobile, all Fredericksburg musicians. This would allow them the freedom to perform anywhere, anytime, all at a moment's notice.
In the following months, local musicians flocked to the newly formed band, some old friends, some new acquaintances. All had prior performance experience and each shared in the sheer excitment of this new group. Horn players in particular are often treated as an afterthought being called upon at the last minute for high-profile gigs or recording sessions. Here was a chance for the marginalized to step up and shine in all their glory.
Now, primed and ready, ELBY BRASS is bringing it to the streets. The raw horn funk might catch you in the club or in your own backyard. All the world's a stage and ELBY is front and center, just look for the purple and gold.

It's hard to overstate just how amazing it is to consider a big-budget, major studio-produced 3D family adventure centered on Georges Méliès. Before now, the work of the early cinematic innovator, whose movies (most famously 1903's A Trip to the Moon) revolutionized and advanced special effects, has been relegated to film...

Soften and cleanse in one simple step. This sulfate-free, lightly foaming cleanser with a combination of gentle, effective cleansing agents, vitamin-rich Rice Bran and Candlenut Oil removes all traces of makeup and dirt without stripping skin, leaving skin refreshed, hydrated and revitalized.
Inspired by the traditional rice water rinse, common in Indonesia as a softening and brightening treatment, Rice Bran softens and smoothes skin while Candlenut Oil delivers hydration without clogging pores.
Skin is left feeling soft, smooth, and clean. Gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin, as well as break-out prone skin.
Dermatologist Tested. 100% Vegetarian Skincare. Free of parabens, mineral oil, sulfates, phthalates, gluten, artificial colorants and harsh chemicals.
This is the only cleanser that I think is mild and moisturizing enough for combination sensitive skin without causing a breakout. Love it.
There aren't enough words to describe how great this cleanser works. I have sensitive, dry skin and this doesn't irritate or cause additional dryness. It foams up into a rich lather and rinses away all traces of makeup. I'm normally sensitive to most fragrances, but this cleanser is different. I love the smell so much, I have used it in the shower! I noticed, Juara has a new body wash and will have to try it. If the body wash smells as good, I'll have to buy two or three at a time. I keep shopping Skinstore for the quality and value.
My skin is so sensitive. This is the 1st cleanser I have ever actually like using. Usually these kinds of products leave my skin feeling tight and dry, the more moisturizing ones break me out. But not so with Juara, it makes my skin perfect! It smells really good, too. Now I want to wash my face all the time, I can't believe it!
Use morning and night. Lather with water, apply to face in a gentle circular motion. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry. Follow with Juara Tamarind Tea Hydrating Toner.
This product can be shipped to any country to which SkinStore currently ships.

Royals sign Ashe Russell, introduce him at "The K"
The Royals have signed first-round pick Ashe Russell, who met with the media today at Kauffman Stadium. Russell then watched batting practice, where he met several Royals including manager Ned Yost, fellow first-round pick Luke Hochevar (2006) and a former 50th-round pick, Jarrod Dyson (also 2006). Russell also signed his first autographs as a professional. Congrats and welcome!
Ned Yost media session: June 17, 2015
The Royals are back at Kauffman Stadium for the second half of a home-and-home series against the Brewers on Wednesday night. Joe Blanton will be taking the bump for Kansas City in his first big league start since 2013. Yost said that Blanton should have the same mindset on the mound as if he were in another relief appearance. "It comes down to getting guys out," said Yost, "it's as simple as that."
Lorenzo Cain has been one of the Royals hottest hitters as of late, and Yost thinks that he has twenty home run a year potential. "He really focuses on using the whole field. He's not up there looking for a pitch to hit a home run on. He wants to drive the ball and that is a key part to his success."
Kansas City has been making headlines lately, not only for their winning record on the field, but also for leading the All-Star polls with eight players in line to start as of Monday. When asked what he thought about a fan voted starting team for the All-Star game, Yost stated that he agreed with it. "I don't want to put this in a bad way, but if people want to change the starting lineup, they should vote. That's not only for Royals fans, but any fan of baseball."

The club drafted two high school players, one junior college player and five players from four-year colleges today. Among the 11 players selected over the first two days, the position-by-position breakdown includes: seven pitchers (four right-handers, three left-handers), one infielder and three outfielders.

A look at the top Royals draft picks
The Royals went with three right-handed pitchers on Monday in day one of the annual Rule 4 Draft.
Kansas City selected 18-year old Ashe Russell, a 6-foot-4, 195-pound hurler from Cathedral Catholic High School in Indianapolis with their first-round pick (21st overall). Russell was 5-1 with a 1.02 ERA and 67 strikeouts to just nine walks in 41.0 innings as a senior. The two-time Gatorade Player of the Year in Indiana has committed collegiately to Texas A&M University.
The Royals returned to the Indianapolis prep ranks with the 33rd overall pick, selecting the 18-year old Nolan Watson from Lawrence North High School. The 6-foot-3, 195-pound righty was 6-1 with a 0.68 ERA this spring, striking out 81 over 51.2 innings. His school was a rival school to Russell. Watson was named after Nolan Ryan. The 33rd pick is considered a first round pick as the Royals received the selection when James Shields signed with the Padres.
In the second round, Kansas City picked Josh Staumont, a 6-foot-2, 205-pound right-hander from Azusa Pacific University in California. The junior compiled a 6-2 mark and a 3.67 ERA over 13 games (12 starts) for the NCAA Division II Cougars, fanning 109 batters over 68.2 innings. He held opponents to a .155 average. The 21-year old is a native of La Habra, Calif.
We declare June 7 "Salvador Perez Day"
Salvador Perez hit a go-ahead home run in yesterday's game, helping the Royals to a 4-3 win. It turns out that Perez has clubbed key home runs on June 7 in three straight years! After the game, we received these notes from Curt Nelson, Director of the Royals Hall of Fame:
Two years ago…
June 7, 2013
Salvy for the Lead – Billy for the Win: The Royals trail the Astros 1-0 entering the bottom of the bottom of the fourth inning when Eric Hosmer leads-off with an infield single and Sal Perez follows with a two-run HR to put the Royals in front. The Astros retie the game with a run in the top of the seventh, but the Royals respond in the eighth. Again Hosmer leads-off with a single, then scores on Billy Butler's one-out RBI double to put the Royals back in front. With Eliot Johnson pinch-running for Butler, the Royals score an insurance run with a two-out RBI double from David Lough. The Royals defeat the Astros 4-2 at Kauffman Stadium.
One year ago…
June 7, 2014
Salvy HR to the Rescue: The Royals jump to a 3-0 lead with a three-run bottom of the second, before the Yankees rallied for three in the top of the sixth to end an 11-inning scoreless streak for Royals starter Danny Duffy. Back-to-back walks to Billy Butler and Alex Gordon leading off the bottom of the sixth set the stage for a three-run HR by Salvador Perez putting the Royals back in front – Nori Aoki added a two-out RBI single scoring Lorenzo Cain. Eric Hosmer then lead-off the bottom of the seventh with a solo HR to rightfield. The Royals defeat the Yankees 8-4 at Kauffman Stadium.
And this year…
June 7, 2015
Ned Catches Howser – Salvy HR to the Rescue (Again): The Royals score single runs in the first, second and fifth innings to build a 3-0 lead. Jeremy Guthrie has a shutout through six-innings surrendering one hit (a two-out Mitch Moreland double in the top of the fourth) before the Rangers rally for three runs in the top of the seventh to tie the game. Salvador Perez hits a two-out solo HR in the bottom of the eighth to regain the lead. Ned Yost notches managerial win #404 for the Royals to match Royals Hall of Famer Dick Howser for second most in club history. The Royals defeat Texas 4-3 at Kauffman Stadium.
Seven Royals now leading in All-Star voting!
Great job, Royals fans! Your votes have put first baseman Eric Hosmer and designated hitter Kendrys Morales on top at their positions in the MLB All-Star Game balloting. Catcher Salvador Perez, shortstop Alcides Escobar, third baseman Mike Moustakas and outfielders Lorenzo Cain and Alex Gordon remain in line for starting nods at their positions. Voting continues until July 2.
Here is part of the balloting update from MLB:
Hosmer, bidding for his first career All-Star appearance, has received 3,551,005 votes while surpassing Detroit Tigers first baseman Miguel Cabrera (2,933,108), who has earned fan elections in each of the last two seasons. Hosmer is aiming to become the first Royals first baseman to win a fan election. The 25-year-old is tied for eighth in the NL with 13 doubles. In addition, the two-time Rawlings Gold Glove Award winner has added seven home runs, two triples, 34 RBI, 31 runs scored and a .376 on-base percentage.
Morales, also seeking his first career All-Star selection, has totaled 3,269,634 votes as he attempts to become the first Royals designated hitter to earn a fan election. In his first season with Kansas City, the 31-year-old native of Cuba has proven to be a clutch player for his new team, leading the AL with a .392 batting average with two outs and fourth with a .386 average with runners in scoring position. In addition, Morales is second in the Majors with 29 two-out hits and tied for second with 21 two-out RBI. Overall, Kendrys is hitting .293 on the season with six home runs, 18 doubles (T-1st in AL), 39 RBI (T-4th in AL) and 32 runs scored. Seattle Mariners slugger Nelson Cruz follows close behind Morales with 3,128,121 tallies as he tries for his fourth Midsummer Classic selection and second consecutive starting assignment. Cruz is batting .329 on the season with seven doubles, 39 RBI, 33 runs scored and an AL-best 18 home runs and .613 slugging percentage.
Ned Yost media session: June 7, 2015
After Yordano Ventura was taken out of yesterday's game, Royals first baseman Eric Hosmer took him aside to help calm him down and keep him focused. "Hosmer is one of our big leaders who keeps everyone focused and pushing in the same direction" said Yost. Hosmer is not the only Royal who helps lead his teammates, Alex Gordon, Chris Young, Edinson Volquez, Salvador Perez, and Alcides Escobar were all mentioned by Yost.
Danny Duffy will make a rehab assignment this Tuesday in Omaha throwing three to four innings and 50 pitches. Duffy has not pitched since May 16th against the Yankees.
Jeremy Guthrie takes the mound today as the Royals look to end their homestand with a win. Guthrie was able to bounce back in his last start after allowing 11 earned runs at the Yankees. According to Yost, Guthrie was hitting his locations in his start at New York, but the Yankees were still hitting home runs even on balls down in the zone. Guthrie's fastball velocity has been increasing of late reaching 94 miles per hour and Yost hopes that he will start to use it more often in his upcoming starts.
By Sal Defeo
Ned Yost media session: June 6, 2015
After pitching well in his last start against the Chicago Cubs, Yordano Ventura takes the mound today against the Rangers as the Royals try to get back on track. Over his past few starts, Ventura's stuff has been very "crisp" and he has "commanded the ball well" said Yost.
The Royals are in a "quiet bat" period, but Yost still wants to "fight the feeling to do something" as this is a team problem where as if a few players struggle you can simply move them down in the lineup. "When you have eight or nine players" who are struggling, "you stay the course" said Yost. In periods similar to this, it's important for the Royals to stay calm "and have one good at-bat". When players are not hitting well it puts more pressure on everybody "because I got to be the man", said Yost, which ultimately prolongs the slump.

The question is NEVER "Does Christ receive sinners?" but "Do sinners receive Christ?" He opens His arms wide for sinners, but many sinners close their minds and hearts to Him. He would accept them, but they reject Him. That's ok, right? I mean that's their choice.
Speaking of the incarnation of Jesus, Martin Luther said that there were three miracles involved. "The first, that God became man; the second, that a virgin was a mother; and the third, that the heart of man should believe this." Many hearts do not believe this. While we evangelical Christians are celebrating the entry of divinity into the world through the miracle of the virgin birth of Christ, the world is filled with those who object to this classic Christian doctrine.
You may think nothing you do will ever amount to anything for the Lord. You have no idea what God can do through you if you will commit your entire life to Him. Take the limitations off and the natural expectations down. Let God work and see what He is able to do. Lottie Moon is one of the greatest examples of what God can do as we surrender our lives to Him.
Even the idea of believing refers to individuals since only individuals can exercise faith; I do not see anything in the passage that would indicate that this "all" is restricted to something like all people groups, including some who can be saved. I do not think the passage even hints that this "all" is different from "all" including each person previously spoken of as under sin; of which "there is no distinction." This understanding corresponds precisely with its usage before and in the following verses.
I remember hearing Dr. J. Howard Edington preach a message based on Matthew 13:24-30, 36-43, titled, "Jesus and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day" at Beeson Divinity School (07/30/97). Since then, I discovered sermons similarly titled with a different name based on a different text, featuring Moses, Job, and Paul. If we knew with certainty that Hezekiah wrote Psalm 120; we could title this message, "Hezekiah and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day."

If you want to be for the technologically advanced of fashion august in relation to designer handbags, you're ready to start looking into it. Brand name designers like MK Bags, Chloe, Vendi, and Diesel among others are going to to push out a new wave of handbag fashion for the summertime and in the know can keep you a stride in advance of your pals. To assist you, I've compiled a directory of the top 3 trends for handbags come early july.
The Micro Clutch
The superior trend for designer bag fashion during the summer time of 2012 could be the micro clutch, that's basically a pint-sized clutch that may even be carried over the shoulder. Everyone that follows fashion is aware that bags are becoming increasingly smaller within the 5yrs approximately, and also this season the world's best designers have expanded with that trend, taking it to an alternative level. One specific micro clutch we've my attention on because of this summer is the Embossed Monogram Continental Clutch by Michael Kors, mainly in the pink and tangerine colors. These little clutches are perfect for carrying town over a hot summer night. They are spacious enough to support all the essentials, but nonetheless sufficiently little to not be cumbersome.
The Chain Strap
Another major trend for summer 2012 is going to be the chain strap. Each of the trendy designers are introducing bags with chain straps this season, but my top pick with this category must be the Sloan Clutch by Michael Kors. This MK Bag combines the top two summer handbag trends a single perfect little clutch. The Sloan is quaint enough to be considered a micro clutch looked after carries a chain strap. The chain strap handbags increasingly becoming so trendy given that they offer that edgy look, yet still maintain a stylish feel too.
Have you been driving down the road, and noticed an advert with a roadside billboard? I bet the solution is yes. A lot of people cherish these adverts, and the reason for that is, these are able in places you can't help but notice them.
One of the better methods for you to definitely get a way to the people the truth is every day, is as simple as strategy for a slogan emblazoned across your front. People can't help but take note of the information you would like to share. To be able you can view, personalized t-shirts are a good way in promoting your message in your chest.
This is by no means an enterprise only ploy, even if you may have a commercial message on the garment. It is far more than that. The one limit is your imagination. If you discover social situations a little daunting, and so are shy about starting a discussion, really do not think to spark that initial contact compared to a very good or funny slogan in your t-shirt. Listed here are four methods for you to use personalized t-shirts in your life.
1. Promote you business.
How many people can you walk pat in one day? I bet it is a good deal. By designing and wearing a shirt with your own individual commercial message you happen to be effectively becoming your personal walking billboard. The more attention grabbing it does not take better. Often should you choose it in the humorous style more people who view it will remember whatever you have to say.
If you're in a business which includes staff, and premises in which you enter in to direct connection with the public, you will be able to easily hand out an experienced image by dressing everyone in the same corporate t-shirt. Inject a bit of humor, and you may acquire more publicity than you bargained for. The burger restaurant that dressed their staff in a t-shirt that said "Meat is Murder" became an internet sensation.
2. Recognize a group.
You should use your t-shirt to let people understand what you have to. Your selected hobby, Tv program, or film in your chest, is going to be bound to start conversations with well suited people. What better method of meeting people you have something that is similar to could you consider?
3. Show your solidarity.
When you have a judgment let the world know what it really is. May very well not alter the world nevertheless, you never can inform.

text: So I currently go to school at a university, and I ride my bike to class every day. I also like to ride around for recreation and exercise, but I haven't made the switch to clipless pedals yet. I want to know, is it worth it? I really like how the clipless pedals look, I've been told that they're an essential upgrade if you love cycling, and I know that they're really nice to help give you that bit of extra power. But I do commute every day, and I could bring a pair of shoes along with me. I ride fixed, and I already have foot retention in the form of toe cages. Is it worth it to upgrade, or would it be a waste of time?

Hobbes holds nothing back in 'what's on my mind' tell-all — MSR contributor publishes collection of essays, columns
A book review
By Marcie Rendon
Contributing Writer
Something I Said: Essays on Domestic Abuse, Rape, Relationships and Other Critical Social Issues (Papyrus Publishing, Inc.) is a collection of previously published commentaries and essays by Dwight Hobbes. He is a man who on one hand throws down hardcore thoughts faster than most folks dare to think them and then, in typical Dwight Hobbes fashion, confounds it all by dedicating his book to the two purring kitties that have wrapped their tails around his heart. Like Richard Pryor on his recording Is It Something I Said?, Hobbes sets out to confront the reader, awake the reader, and if the reader doesn't wake up fast enough, slap the reader across the head with words until the reader sits up and asks incredulously, "Did this guy just write what I think he wrote?" And no matter the reaction of the reader, Hobbes keeps writing. The essays in his book are culled from various publications over a 20-plus-year career of writing everything from plays, articles, columns, poetry and songs to performing on his guitar.

Hi, I had this problem before, solved it. Then it happened again and I couldn't find the place where I found the solution, but it was still in my download folder so I'd like to share it with you friends. I uploaded the "kext utility" plus a functional KextUSBEthernet file.
(this worked with leopard) iphone 4 and 5.
I also found an updated version of the Kext Utility for more recent OSX
hope that works for you.

No I have not had that problem...
I tethered via USB with no issues...
Toggled off my WIFI on both iPhone and MBP
Plugged USB cable into MBP and iPhone 5
Then toggled the hotspot on
It poped up with a choice to turn WIFI back on or continue USB only
I Chose USB only and it nearly immediately showed me having 1 connection and when I opened settings > Network on my MBP I showed connected to iPhone 5 with an IP...
I tested and it worked fine...

Thanks for the quick response, but no joy. I just went through that very procedure for the umpteenth time, to be sure, and with a clean install of Snow Leopard I have on a USB stick for emergency purposes, to be sure. The iPhone 3G is recognised right off, the iPhone 5 is not.

A little bit late to your question: But you need to check if the data plan for your iPhone 5 *does* support tethering. Carriers all over the world are now realizing they can make money on the tethering plan (thanks to the success of iPhone), Free tethering is in the past now.
If the SIM in your iPhone 3G does supports tethering, then you can cut the it with a nano SIM cutter. And put the 3G SIM into the new iP5.

Tethering works! If you read my original message, tethering works, just not very well and primarily not at all when connected to by USB cable. In fact tethering has nothing to do with the USB problem because Snow Leopard Network Preferences does not recognise that the iPhone is plugged in. Please note, all this (tethering with USB or Bluetooth) worked well with my old iPhone 3G on the same carrier account.
No, your response was of no help whatsoever!

I'm having a similar problem. I have OS X 10.6.8 and iPhone 4s iOS 6.0. I can use the personal hotspot over wifi but it doesn't work over USB.
I plug in my phone and nothing happens??

They say misery loves company.
Several weeks ago I contacted Apple about the problem and they have finally responded. I'll be finding out if they have come up with a solution on Monday (Australia time). I'll pass on any goodies I get here.
Cross your fingers and hope.

I do have the same problem, please let me know if apple could fixed it out and how they did. Fingers crossed...

Unfortunately I suspect I have little joy for you. In the first place I gave up on getting any help from Apple when my emails to the consultant I was dealing with, Drew, bounced. Perhaps he was fired or quit. I haven't heard from Apple since. Then when I updated to iOS 6.0.1, suddenly USB tethering (Personal Hotspot) to my iPhone 5 started to work. I don't have a clue why. I now have USB connectivity to both my iPhone 5 and iPhone 3G (iOS 4.2.1). However I'm now having trouble tethering on wifi with the iPhone 5. Since I don't really need it and have been otherwise distracted, I've been ignoring the problem.

Hi, I was looking at this thread while figuring out why my USB tethering was not working.
I figured out the solution for my situation at least.
System Preferences > Network
Check to see if an "iPhone USB" item exists on the list on the left.
If not, click the "+" icon below,
Interface: iPhone USB
Service name: iPhone USB
Click "Create"
Click "Apply"
Now try turning Personal Hotspot on your iPhone off then back on.
Hope that works for everyone.

I tried this (because I'm suddenly unable to connect to Personal Hotspot via USB), but when I click the "+" icon I don't see "iPhone USB" in the list of interfaces.
The interfaces I see are:
Bluetooth DUN
6 to 4
(Tethering via Bluetooth and Wifi is fine, BTW, and I can connect/sync my iPhone to iTunes via USB without problems)
Any ideas how to get the iPhone to show in the list of interfaces?
My MacBook is a 2008 model, running Lion (10.7.5), the iPhone is an Iphone 4 running iOS 6.1.3
Note - it doesn't appear to be problem with the iPhone, as the same problem occurs with a different iPhone with different version of iOS6 (older)

I have the same problem with iPhone 5 6.1.4 and Lion 10.7.5.

Hi, I had this problem before, solved it. Then it happened again and I couldn't find the place where I found the solution, but it was still in my download folder so I'd like to share it with you friends. I uploaded the "kext utility" plus a functional KextUSBEthernet file.
(this worked with leopard) iphone 4 and 5.
I also found an updated version of the Kext Utility for more recent OSX
hope that works for you.
lucastle Jul 27, 2013 12:56 AM
in response to lucastle
BTW unzip the file, run the Kext Utility (put your password when requested) drag the functional Kext file (included) and well its that simple.. oh and restart your computer.

I was able to fix this same issue by using the kext from the iTunes 10.6.3 installer. More detail about how to do this here.

I don't own Jack frost, Bunnymund or any other character from the Rise of the Guardians Universe, I just love them a lot!
Thanks to everyone who read and enjoyed the first part of the fic! I'm having a blast writing it and I'm so thrilled that people are enjoying it. This chapter was harder than I thought it would be, but I wanted to do it justice, and I like the way it turned out!
Aster sat in a small chair next to Jack's bed, staring at the winter spirit's face, which was so pale in nearly vanished into his pillow. He looked so much like he was sleeping that Aster kept expecting those ice blue eyes to pop open, that thin mouth to spread into a smile and tell everyone that he was fine and they could stop fussing over him. He wasn't sleeping though, he wasn't unconscious either. The guardians didn't have a clue what was afflicting their newest member, but the general consensus was it wasn't good. Sandy had even tried to wake Jack and been thrown across the room by some sort of backlash, he had difficulty explaining exactly what had happened, the others unable to grasp what he was trying to convey with his pictures. The other guardians were talking; discussing what to do about this latest threat from Pitch, but Aster wasn't paying them any attention, his thoughts were focused on spirit lying on the bed next to him.
It wasn't until the third or fourth time North said Aster's name that he actually realized it. Slowly he turned his head to face the others.
"What do you think we should do about Pitch? You were the one he attacked; do you think he will be coming after rest of us?" North asked once he had Aster's attention.
"What do I think? I think we should track down Pitch, take one of these daggers from him, and stab him through his shriveled black heart." Aster said in a flat tone, turning his head back to the unconscious Jack, keeping one ear turned towards his fellow guardians now.
"It does not make sense," North as saying "We are immortals, we do not get hurt, not severally anyway, we do not get sick, we certainly do not die. The worst that could happen would be fading from the minds of the world, ending up like Pitch, who is very much alive."
"Unfortunately." Aster muttered under his breath.
"Well, by the rules we don't fall in love either. If there are exceptions to that rule then maybe there are exceptions to the other rules as well." Tooth said, more as an afterthought than anything else. She glanced at Aster as she did so, and the glare he shot at he caused her to flinch and step back, as though he had struck her.
Aster turned away from them again, turning his ears away as well, working to tune out their conversation. He didn't want to think about the implications of Tooth's words. She was right though, Spirits like themselves weren't supposed to fall in love, at least not with another person. They all loved the children they brought joy, wonder and hope to, but that was different. Yet someone how he and Jack had fallen in love. By some circumstance of chance, they had found something in the other that they liked, and it had grown into the most important thing in Aster's life.
Things played out in that manner for some time, the guardians trying to come up with a plan to deal with Pitch, Aster ignoring them, lost in his own thoughts as he stared into the face of the person he loved more than anything in the world. They were interrupted once again by a knock at the door.
"Come in" North said, not wanting to rise from his seat across the room. A Yeti entered the room, making several grunting noises in the general direction of North, who immediately jumped up "Thank you Phil" He said, as he turned to the other guardians. "Manny is saying something." He said, turning to walk out of the room, Sandy and Tooth at his heals.
Aster hesitated for a moment, torn between not wanting to leave Jack's side and wanting to see what the Man in the Moon had to say about the situation. Finally he decided that he needed to see if Manny had anything to say about Jack. Leaning down, he kissed Jack's forehead he whispered "Don't worry, I'll be right back," and hurried after the others.
Standing at North's control station, with the large lighted globe spinning slowly in the center of the room, he and the other guardian's waiting to hear what Manny had to say sent Aster back over a century, to the day the moon spirit had named Jack a guardian.
"It's been a long time Manny" boomed North as they gathered around the shaft of moonlight filtering through the skylight. The beam grew bright in response. "So what do you have to say to us?" North said.
The Bean of light shimmered, a shadow falling across it, casting the shape of a dagger across the floor.
"Thanks Manny, but you're a wee bit late. We know about Pitch's new weapons." Aster said, unable to keep the bitterness out of his voice.
"Do you have a way to counter this new threat?" North asked
The moonbeam shifted angles, coming to rest on Sandy. The small gold clad guardian's eyes drifted shut as the moon's light reflected off the small sparkles of sand in is clothing, making him literally shimmer in the moonlight. After several moments the moonlight dimmed back to its normal glow and Sandy opened his eyes wide with excitement. He immediately brought a small ball of sand into being above his palm, closing his hands together around it like he was trying to crush it. After a few long moments Sandy opened his palms to reveal a glinting gold star, solid as stone, sitting on his palm. Running over to a nearby desk he found a string and tied star to it, creating a necklace.
"Sandy, what are you doing?" North asked as the little man ran to him and placed the necklace over his head, lifting himself up on a cloud of sand in order to reach North's head. Several images flashed above Sandy's head, but they flashed by to quickly for Aster to see them from where he was standing. "So this will protect us from these daggers?" North asked
Sandy nodded vigorously and clapped his hands happily.
Walking over, Aster grabbed the guardian of dreams by the shoulder and turned him around gently "Did he say anything about how to help Jack?"
Sandy's expression fell, his mouth dropping to a frown and his eyes growing sad. Slowly he shook his head from side to side. Aster tried and failed to keep the disappointment off his face at Sandy's response. "Well, we'll just have to-" Aster began, but stopped, stiffening. He swiveled his ears towards the hospital ward, picking up the sound of labored, gasping breaths.
"Bunnymund, what is-" was all Tooth was able to get out before Aster was sprinting full speed to Jack's bed, jumping over elves blocking his way. He arrived at Jack's bedside to find the winter spirit gasping for breath, his eyes wide open and darting around the room. They stopped when they found Aster's, the bright, ice blue irises shining as they gazed into Aster's green ones.
"It's alright," Aster said, knowing how meaningless the words were, standing there helplessly beside Jack "You're goanna be alright." He reached down and grasped Jack's hand, feeling a weak squeeze in response. Jacks mouth curved up in a small smile and he took in one last shuddering breath and let it out in a sigh, the bright twinkle fading from his eyes.
Aster stared at the lifeless eyes in front of him, unable to break his gaze, unable to move, unable to breathe, unable to even think. He heard the sound of the other guardians come running into the room, heard Tooth gasp, North saying something in Russian that sounded like a curse. He heard the sounds around him, but in a detached way, as though he weren't really there, the only thing that mattered in his world were the dull, lifeless eyes staring back at him.
When he finally took a breath, it was shaky, much like the rest of him. He could feel the sadness coming, the grief threatening to rush over him like a flood, but at that moment he was too overwhelmed with shock to feel anything. As he watched, the bright blue irises started to fade, their color darkening until they were black as night. It didn't stop there, Jack's eyes darkened until there was no color left in them at all, and his body soon followed, his pale white skin darkening until it was pure black. With a sound like wind blowing through a cave entrance, the body of the spirit of winter collapsed into a cloud of black mist which quickly faded into nothingness. Tooth let out a shocked cry, North cursing again, this time louder with shock. Aster wanted to jump back, wanted to clutch at the mist, wanted to move at all, but his body refused to obey him. He felt the hand he had been holding fade away, leaving a small, hard object in his hand which he clutched without conscious thought.
Several moments passed. "Bunny?" said North cautiously.
Something inside Aster broke, the unnamed force that had held his every motion at bay vanished, and he bolted. He ran away from the room, away from the guardians, away from the bed that had, until just moments before, held the most important thing in his world. He taped his foot automatically, ducking into the rabbit hole as soon as it appeared, not caring where he ran. He pushed his body to its limit, running faster and longer than he ever had before, and still he kept running. He tried to lose himself in the action, letting the rhythmic pounding of his feet against earth drown out his thought, but no matter how hard he tried, one thought kept coming back to him. Jack Frost, the spirit of winter, the guardian of and fun and joy, his soul mate, was gone.
So what did you think? I know, you hate me! I hated me to when I wrote the ending, but it had to had to happen. Third part is already written, just being proofread, so should be out soon!

For the record, the new old-style non-Starbucks Starbucks store is - despite what you might read in the paper today - officially 15th Ave.
For the record, the new old-style non-Starbucks Starbucks store is - despite what you might read in the paper today - officially 15th Ave. Coffee & Tea and not, for example, 15th Avenue Coffee & Tea. But the ave abbreviation may be more important to copyright attorneys than reporters. As we mentioned earlier this week, there is likely an existing mom & pop coffee & tea somewhere out there in latteland with the same or similar name and, in the great bullying tradition of corporate Starbucks, should be filing their name-infringement lawsuit any day now. The stealth Starbucks on Cap Hill - a designer-coffee concept store posing as a neighborhood joint - opened for press tours yesterday and the corporation has also announced some operational details, which have got to make you laugh. The industry giant is calling the new store a "coffeehouse," one that "offers customers new opportunities for discovery, a high level of interaction and a deep connection to the local community." A Charbucks fact sheet also notes that "customers can influence the coffeehouse's social responsibility efforts by recommending and becoming involved in local causes." Nice idea. How about a crusade to get rid of phony chain stores and corporatespeak before Howard Schultz shows up in a poncho, strumming folk songs?

I'm probably overlooking something very simple and just been staring at it too much, but I can't get this DQL query to work. I get an exception stating:
Cannot select entity through identification variables without choosing at least one root entity alias.
Here's my query. User has a many-to-one relation to Group. Note that this is a unidirectional relation! That may make no sense to you, but it makes sense in our domain logic.
SELECT DISTINCT g
FROM Entity\User u
LEFT JOIN u.group g

Can you tell me what I am missing here?

Archived Story
What was that recipe?Published 11:42am Wednesday, June 13, 2012
Dear Mom's Corner,
In one of your columns last year you gave two wonderful recipes for family reunions, I've lost my copy. Could you please print them again?
Dear SL,
It is the time of year for family reunions. I am not sure what is normally served at your reunions, but here are a couple of recipes I have found most people enjoy that are not very common.
Cream Cheese Pinwheels
Refrigerated crescent dough
8-ounce package cream cheese
Bacon bits
Seasoned salt
Soften cream cheese in microwave for about 30 seconds stir in bacon bits. I usually use about 1/2 container, but feel free to use more. Add seasoned salt to taste, or if you're watching your salt intake, you can use seasoning like onion and garlic powder along with a bit of pepper.
After the cream cheese mixture is mixed thoroughly set it aside and on a pastry cloth, parchment paper, or lightly floured surface gently roll out the crescent dough, but do not separate it!

Great shoe and service
User: Brian Distasio, Nv
This is a great shoe. My daughter loves them. Fast and great service from tennis express
Satisfied with the business,not the shoe
User: Erin Ahern, De
Shoe LOOKS nice! Almost like a tennis ball on your foot, with its colors.. The coloring actually made me subliminally expect the shoe to have the bounciness and performance like a tennis ball! However, once it put the shoes ON, it was like I was wearing a neon boat on each foot. Theyre large, very wide, and have minimal padding, in my opinion. Im used to the cushiony goodness of Brooks or Saucony, so when I tried these on, they were not very comfortable. Didnt work for me, The company itself is great: nice little business who ships products quickly and has a nice variety of choices.

Clearwater Lodge, Davis Lake
8513 Hwy 211, Newport, Washington
Located on 500 wooded, lakeside acres at the foot of the Selkirk Mountain Range in Northeastern Washington, Clearwater Lodge and Camp Spalding offer an outstanding natural environment for our Small Church Conference.
William P. (Bill) Robinson is president emeritus of Whitworth University in Spokane, Washington. He served as Whitworth's 17th president from 1993 to 2010, after previously serving as president of Manchester College, in Indiana, from 1986 to 1993. His tenure as Whitworth's president was the second longest and one of the most influential in the university's history.
Plenary speaker: Dr. Bill Robinson
Bruner-Welch Professor of Theology, Whitworth University
Ph.D. Fuller Theological Seminary
New Testament Studies, University of Zürich, Switzerland; University of Tübingen, Germany
M.Div. Princeton Theological Seminary
B.A. Whitworth University
Year Joined Whitworth Faculty: 1997
Areas of Specialization / Expertise:
Old and New Testament; the Gospels and life of Jesus; Biblical Hebrew; Koine Greek; history of early Christianity; Reformation; German church struggle, communist East Germany; the Holocaust.
Leading the Very Small Church - Rev. George Eastman
Rev. George Eastman has spent the last six years leading a church with 11 members, and recently began serving a church on an Indian reservation with average Sunday worship attendance of 10-15. This workshop will involve plenty of discussion, as well as presentation by George.
Reflections on the Water - Brenda Norton
Overlooking the beautiful Davis Lake we're given the opportunity to reflect on Jesus' ministry on the shores of the Sea of Galilee. We'll use stories from Jesus' life that revolve around the sea and images of water in his teachings to guide our reflection.
Organic Leadership Development - Rev. Bruce Sexton, d.Min.
In this workshop we will explore the life story and leadership development of Joseph from Genesis 37-50 using J. Robert Clinton's leadership emergence process. We will explore the stages of development and challenges in the life of Joseph. Then, each participant will examine significant events, circumstances and people that have influenced their personal leadership development.
Networking to Lead Better - Rev. Jim Deal & Phyllis Tincher
In ministry, isolation can lead to loneliness and less effective ministry. Jim and Phyllis will share how networking with other small church leaders has enhanced their ministry, and share a vision for how the 2 or 3 Network envisions expanding its small church ministry beyond conferences to an on-going network of mutually supportive small church leaders
Worship Dynamics - Keith Petersen
Led by our worship leader for the conference, this workshop will focus on worship music, worship team dynamics, and planning for worship. The workshop should appeal to both those who lead worship weekly, and those who want to find out more about worship leading in general.
Morning Devotions
Each morning, begin your day by joining us for a short devotional time, consisting of singing praise to God, interspersed with time for silent prayer, and scripture reading. Come, and find strength to answer our call by spending time with the Lord…
Morning devotions will be led by Rev. Jim Deal, a member of the planning team and a musician; and Keith Peterson, our worship leader for the conference.
Housing Descriptions
The mission of Clearwater Lodge and Camp Spalding is to provide meaningful Christian programming in an exceptional natural setting where – apart from the daily routine – people of all ages may encounter Jesus Christ and grow deeper in their relationship with Him.
Located on 500 wooded, lakeside acres at the foot of the Selkirk Mountain Range in Northeastern Washington, Clearwater Lodge and Camp Spalding offer an outstanding natural environment for Christian summer camps, weekend conferences, and mid-week retreats.
Over the years, thousands of young lives have been eternally changed during summer camp experiences at Camp Spalding. And with the opening of Clearwater Lodge in late 1999, God is at work in the lives of our adult guests throughout the mid-year, as well. And that legacy of outreach and discipleship is having a greater impact today than ever before. Summer camp attendance continues to set new attendance records, and participants in all Christian programs – summer camps, adult conferences, youth retreats – has more than tripled in the past decade.
Since it was founded by area Presbyterian churches in 1957, our site has seen numerous physical, program and management improvements over the years. And yet the dream of the ministry's founders – of a place for people of all ages to hear the Gospel message and grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ – remains the solid foundation upon which we continue to build.
God has given Clearwater Lodge and Camp Spalding a wonderful heritage. And with the dramatic growth in attendance, programs and facilities in recent years, we are grateful for God's guidance and blessing during this truly exciting chapter in the history of our ministry.

With uncommon clarity, Robinson understood and articulated the "Grand Paradox" of Whitworth's mission to uphold Christian conviction and intellectual curiosity as complementary rather than competing values. Inspired by Robinson's leadership, Whitworth students, faculty and staff joined with alumni, donors and friends to achieve record levels of freshman applications, enrollment and retention; $83 million in campus improvements; and a $75 million increase in the university's endowment.
In his role as president emeritus, Robinson works closely with Whitworth President Beck A. Taylor and the university's institutional advancement staff on external relations. He also writes and speaks widely on leadership, organizational culture and communication in corporate, non-profit and ministry settings.
Worship Leader: Keith Petersen
Keith grew up on a corn farm in Burbank, WA. At age 7, his dad began teaching him piano lessons, and he began to play music in church during middle school. When he is not on the basketball court or snowboarding in the mountains, he is often found playing and singing on various worship teams. Keith graduated from Whitworth University in Spokane, WA in 2007 with a degree in church music and served as Worship Pastor at South Hills Church in Kennewick, WA from 2010-13. Now he focuses much of his efforts on joining the wider Body of Christ in the Tri-Cities area by providing worship nights that are open to all. His greatest joy is to see the Body of Christ unifying hearts and voices to give Jesus all the praise.
