The heat is rising on the Medicom-Sinclair stalemate. Last week, several Senate leaders demanded that the FCC step in and resolve the conflict.
So far, an impasse remains between Mediacom Communications, a cable operator, and Sinclair Broadcast Group, the owner of 22 stations in Mediacom's 13-state coverage area.
Sen. Daniel Inouye (D-HI), chairman of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation, and Sen. Ted Stevens (R-AK), the ranking Republican, urged the action in a letter to FCC chairman Kevin Martin.
The letter directs Martin to work to resolve the impasse between the two companies, which started Jan. 6 when Sinclair pulled its stations from Mediacom's systems. The action left more than 2 million cable viewers without at least one local station. Iowa, with about 250,000 Mediacom subscribers, was most affected.
The lawmakers said the dispute could be resolved through binding arbitration. They noted that Congress specifically contemplated arbitration when it passed a federal law that allowed broadcast TV station owners to seek payment from cable companies for permission to retransmit their signals.
Sinclair spokesman Barry Faber told the Associated Press that the retransmission law does not authorize the FCC to force binding arbitration. "The retransmission consent right is a private property right and negotiations over that are the same as any other commercial negotiation," he said.
For the government to intercede and force a settlement in a private business deal is a "very dangerous slippery slope," Faber added.
Mediacom spokeswoman Phyllis Peters said that Mediacom hoped the senator's involvement would resolve the issue.

The promise of romance inspires you to take a risk with your heart. However, your passions move to the back burner as the day wears on, so express your feelings in the moment if you believe they are more than just a passing fancy. Although your emotions cool off by mid-afternoon, your thoughts grow more rebellious as mental Mercury creates sparks with irrepressible Uranus in your sign. Thankfully, your ingenuity can be used for constructive purposes if you set your intentions in advance and work for a greater cause than just your own.
You're already planning ahead as you consider the merits of starting a new project. However, circumstances require you to tie up loose ends before moving forward. Although progress may be slow, clearing your plate early in the day makes room for the exciting changes waiting in the wings. However, the moody Moon's return to your sign conjures up unresolved feelings from the past. You might have to take one more bittersweet look back before you can release any lingering regrets. It's exhilarating when you finally let go of old emotional baggage and step into the future.
Ingenious ideas are flying around fast and furious, but you aren't quick enough to grab one as it speeds by. Try as you might, the most brilliant speculations slip through your fingers and vanish into thin air, leaving you annoyed and unsatisfied. Instead of repeatedly attempting to prolong fleeting moments, a totally different strategy is advised. There's no need to capture the muse; allow your thoughts to ebb and flow without intervention. Paradoxically, you'll be able to recall the cream of the crop after the energetic wave passes and you can focus on filling in the details.
Although Crabs are often known for hiding in their shells, you're likely to be the one to take centre stage today. In fact, you can stand out in a group as well as anyone else as long as you are playing to a friendly crowd. Fortunately, your originality and scintillating wit are apparent as clever Mercury in your sign creates a magical quintile with brilliant Uranus. Don't wait for a better day to strut your stuff as cosmic luck is on your side. Shine, baby, shine.
People depend on your inspiration for guidance as the reflective Moon enters your 10th House of Public Responsibility. Oddly enough, your growing popularity comes at a time when you want nothing more than to retreat into the privacy of your lair. You're weary of all the drama and deserve a break. The good news is everyone will survive the temporary loss of your leadership because they know you will return to the fray soon enough, rejuvenated and raring to go. Believe it or not, someone else can run the show while you luxuriate in the quiet inner sanctums of your imagination.
You may assume there is safety in numbers today, prompting you to actively seek support from your social network. Ironically, you might actually be the one who is nurturing someone else's dreams these days. Fortunately, this is a win-win situation; everyone benefits from your need to be a valuable part of a larger group or collective cause. As much gratification as you gain from responding to the needs of others, the real gift is the spiritual growth you experience when you also acknowledge the yearnings of your own heart too.
Making steady progress at work today leaves you with a feeling of deep satisfaction. But prepare for unusual things to occur when you take time to communicate your ideas to your peers. Fortunately, others are receiving your message with open minds now, increasing the odds of a favourable outcome. However, you're particularly effective when you don't say everything that's on your mind, leaving your audience wanting more. Saving some of the magic for another day works to your advantage in the long run.
All work and no play is your motto today. However, even the most arduous tasks could lead to a good time as pleasure-seeking Venus and jolly Jupiter get busy in your 10th House of Career. However, you might still grow weary of the emotional constraints that go along with climbing the professional ladder. At some point in the very near future you may realise that your personal connections with people are more important to you than any job promotion. When all is said and done, there are many ways to measure success.
Sharing responsibilities at work lightens your load on the one hand but also brings an additional layer of complications on the other. You can't escape the fact that the more people working together also means multiple strategies to reach a common goal. Accordingly, you may need to be flexible enough to incorporate the best ideas of the group into your preconceived plan. Nevertheless, if you want the collaboration to succeed, establish a harmonious rhythm early in the day that everyone can sustain.
There's little chance of sidestepping relationship drama today so don't let a sudden emotional interaction catch you off guard. Thankfully, you are more likely to respond without losing your footing if you have a clue as to what's coming. Although you might prefer to postpone a difficult discussion, the more honest you are from the beginning, the better the outcome. Just remember that maintaining clear communication channels is essential or you could be in for a rude awakening. Your willingness to listen as much as you speak saves the day.
You might want to spend the day basking in relationship bliss, but you have professional promises to keep. Your personal life may be sweet these days, but it could distract you from the real challenge at hand. Luckily, you can deftly manage both the personal and business ends of your life but it will take extra charm and finesse to juggle everyone's demands. Allocating your resources strategically is the key to everything working seamlessly. It's true, you can have the best of both worlds, if you're willing to put in the effort.
You may experience a lack of support as you try to express your unique brand of creativity today. In fact, it could even seem as if others are purposefully thwarting your efforts or belittling your talent. Unfortunately, a temporary retreat probably won't be a productive one. Although it's understandable if your feelings are hurt, don't waste time putting credence into anyone else's negativity, real or imagined. Continue on your chosen path with unwavering determination; your persistence is your secret weapon.

Here's how a Christian husband might pray for his Christian wife.Pray for Protection Husbands, if you love your wife as Christ loved the church, then you'll be praying for her often because Jesus was a Man of prayer, one night staying all night up a mountain in prayer (Luke 6:12).

Can plants and animals evolve to keep pace with climate change? A study published May 19 in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences shows that for at least one widely-studied plant, the European climate is changing fast enough that strains from Southern Europe already grow better in the north than established local varieties.
Arabidopsis thaliana
(Source: Wikipedia)
Small and fast-growing, Arabidopsis thaliana is widely used as the "lab mouse" of plant biology. The plant grows in Europe from Spain to Scandinavia and because Arabidopsis is so well-studied, there is a reference collection of seeds derived from wild stocks across its native range. Originally collected from 20 to 50 years ago, these plants have since been maintained under controlled conditions in the seed bank.
Johanna Schmitt, formerly at Brown University and now a distinguished professor in the UC Davis Department of Evolution and Ecology, and colleagues took banked seed samples originally from Spain, England, Germany and Finland and raised all the plants in gardens in all four locations.
"The southern imports do better across the range than locals," Schmitt said.
"This shows that the adaptive optimum has moved really fast."
Seed stocks banked decades ago may no longer be the best for their locations of origin, she said, although they still may be critical for preserving genetic diversity, especially from warmer parts of the species range that may facilitate adaptation to future climates.
Whether wild Arabidopsis can evolve fast enough to thrive in warming conditions, or southern varieties move north fast enough to replace northern strains, remains an open question, Schmitt said.
Arabidopsis is a fast-growing, short-lived species. For forest managers, there is another question: can trees that sprouted 30 or 40 years ago adapt in place to a rapidly changing climate?
"This is a concern for foresters — trees live a long time, but will they die if the climate rug is pulled out from under them?" Schmitt said.
Coauthors on the study are Amity Wilczek, Martha Cooper and Tonia Korves, all at Brown University. The study was supported by the National Science Foundation.

Yeah come Tebowing... Maybe you can help generate money cause it's clear we're broke and can't afford to keep good players
#2 Mar 19, 2012
Like to see him in Texas, but that is not likely. So I hope he goes to a Florida team and that he is given a chance to play QB. Tim = Victories!
Since: Mar 12
#4 Mar 20, 2012
So are you a Texans fan or cowboys
#5 Mar 20, 2012
He's not coming to the Fins, they just signed Garrard and he'll compete with Moore. Also, Choir Boy and South Beach won't mix.
#6 Mar 20, 2012
Just ride off into the sunset Timmy with the little bit of dignity you have left. Go join Kirk Cameron and the rest of the religious nut jobs you associate with better. You'd be more at home there than on a professional football field where you had no business being in the first place. Sayonara chump!...and by the way...you still suck!
#7 Mar 20, 2012
Cowboys and Whatever team Tim goes to.
#8 Mar 20, 2012
The Cowboys suck (G-Men baby!) and whatever team Teblow goes to will suck by virtue of him sucking so badly to begin with.
#9 Mar 20, 2012
Teblow is overrated...and inconsistant...
#10 Mar 20, 2012
Tebow ?? No brainer ! Yes !
Dolphins HAVE to get Tebow ..
When peyton is out for season by week 7 next season , and the Fins are leading AFC east, Miami fans can only say it was a " miracle " the way it all worked out for us.... Join the hype
#12 Mar 20, 2012
#13 Mar 20, 2012
Your name says it all you IDIOT, Tebow will be a great QB in the NFL and the Broncos will regret this day for the history of the franchise. It will be 100 times worst than the Red Sox trading Babe Ruth to the Yankees!!!!
#14 Mar 20, 2012
Tebow once again will rise and show all of these haters that he is far better than any of the so called experts give him credit. In this past season he set 7 new Bronco franchise records previously held by John Elway, that is why Elway did all he could to get him out of Denver, his ego couldn't take it, thus going after a fragile 36 year old gamble of a QB is better for Elway to keep is legend alive. Elway, what a fraud, for every 3 TD's, he threw 2 INT's that ranks far worse than Marino, Montana, Young, Farve, and many other great QB's. Tebow's TD to INT ratio is among the best ever by a rookie and first year QB.
#18 Mar 20, 2012
Tebow is amazing. I watched all his games here locally. I'm telling you. The broncos were like a 2 win team before he took over. Elway is going to be run out of town. Tebow is greatly missed.
#19 Mar 21, 2012
Yeah sure, Elway is sabotaging the Broncos to keep his legend alive. Getting rid of a wobble-passing QB for one of the best ever is his way of acheiving this. Go back to watching cockfighting roosters in Hialeah.
#20 Mar 21, 2012
In another 25 years he will own that trailer free and clear

This is a divisional of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/346,822, filed Jul. 2, 1999, now U.S. Pat. No. 6,159,508, issued Dec. 12, 2000, which is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 08/767,001, filed Dec. 19, 1996, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,989,604, issued Nov. 23, 1999.
The invention relates to edible pet foodstuff for dental caries prevention. The invention also relates to a process of preparing such edible pet foodstuff.
Dental plaque acids, produced by Streptococcus mutans and other acidogenic bacteria in an animal's mouth, are responsible for the formation and exacerbation of dental caries and the occurrence of malodorous breath in animals.
It is believed that recently dental caries and malodorous breath have become more prevalent in pets. While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that certain additives or materials in pet food may be responsible at least in part.
A need exists for a pet foodstuff and a treatment method for treating pet's gums and teeth to reduce the incidence of caries and to control malodorous breath in pets.
In accordance with the present invention, it has been discovered that the incidence of caries in pets can be reduced by placing xylitol in contact with a pet's gums and teeth.
In one aspect, this invention provides a range of materials containing various xylitol mixtures to place the xylitol into contact with an animal's teeth for the longest period of time possible. By doing so, xylitol reduces dental plaque acids and inhibits the growth of S. mutans, and other acidogenic bacteria responsible for the formation and exacerbation of dental caries in dogs, cats, horses, pets and other show animals. Another objective is to provide a dry biscuit or treat type of food that synergistically operates with the xylitol to lessen the incidence of dental plaque or tartar by chewing the dry biscuit material.
In accordance with another aspect of the invention, a process is provided for preparing dry, solid animal food in biscuit or treat form with a topical additive onto which the xylitol combination is sprayed, brushed or dipped thereby permitting the topical coating to remain on the outside of the biscuit or treat but firmly adhered thereto. This will increase the time the xylitol combination is placed in direct contact with the animal's teeth increasing the time xylitol will affect any S. mutans present in the mouth. Another objective of the invention is to provide a means of controlling malodorous breath, especially in dogs and cats, by increasing salivation. Another objective of the invention is to prepare a xylitol-containing gel that can be placed directly onto the animal's teeth. A further objective of this invention is to provide a powder to be placed in the animal's drinking water to provide further protection from plaque acids by increasing the contact of xylitol with the animal's teeth over the period of a day. This is especially important for "free feeders," that is, animals which continuously feed throughout the day and are not amenable to being fed the xylitol-containing biscuits after scheduled meals.
In accordance with still another aspect of the invention, a process is provided of preparing a chew rawhide with a topically applied and/or impregnated xylitol-containing mixture. The goal is to maximize exposure during the day of the xylitol-containing mixture to be in direct contact with the animal's teeth.
All of the above applications of the invention taken together further describe another aspect of the invention, that is, this is a comprehensive delivery system of placing xylitol in contact with the animal's teeth for the greatest period of time during the day.
In one aspect, the invention permits the use of a comprehensive method of exposing the animal's teeth to the xylitol product. As stated above, this is accomplished using a variety of delivery materials, that is, topically coated biscuits and treats, topically coated or impregnated rawhide chew bones or toys, "sandwich" style or "pocket" biscuits or treats, a powder soluble in water, and a topical gel application.
The "sandwich" or "pocket" style biscuits or treats are made in such a way that the xylitol mixture is layered using a special process between flat biscuits to create a biscuit that serves a dual purpose of reducing tartar or plaque by the action of chewing against the teeth, and to release the xylitol mixture slowly after the "chewing" action is accomplished.
In one aspect of the invention, novel dog biscuits and cat treats are provided. The farinaceous-based baked biscuits have certain constituents including xylitol suitable for animal consumption, generally food grade xylitol. Xylitol exhibits therapeutic properties for the amelioration of dental caries and conditions promoting the formation of dental caries. A suitable adherence material, such as gum arabic (or other suitable vegetable gum) may be present as a separate coating or in a mixture with the xylitol, for example. When used as a separate coating, the gum arabic is applied to the surface of the biscuit or treat and is allowed to dry or as otherwise required for that particular type of adherent material. This improves the adherence of the xylitol compound to the surface of the biscuit or treat for greater effectiveness. More than one coating layer may be used. The amount of xylitol in such coating should approximate one-half gram per biscuit. Generally, the xylitol will be applied to the surface of the biscuit (or treat) after preparation of the biscuit is otherwise completed. When the coated biscuit is consumed by the animal, release of the xylitol product into the animal's mouth and on the teeth is maintained for the longest time. Xylitol added to the bulk dough before the baking process can be done, but is not preferred because it does not place the maximum amount of xylitol in direct contact with the animal's teeth, a process important to maximize effectiveness.
Another aspect of the invention involves the use of chew toys and bones or treats. These chew toys are made of rawhide, pigskin (in the form of "roll-ups") or other suitable material and are either coated with or impregnated with a xylitol mixture.
Another aspect of the invention involves the use of a water soluble consumable mouthwash powder mix with xylitol in combination with other suitable materials such as aloe vera concentrate and/or zinc amino acid chelate designed to be placed into a pet's water bowl to provide continuous xylitol contact every time the animal drinks water.
Another aspect of the invention involves the use of a topical gel containing a xylitol, lactitol, and HSH (hydrogenated starch hydrolyzate syrup) mixture. This is applied directly to an animal's teeth especially during periods when the animal is not likely to be fed.
The term "dog biscuit" as used herein means a biscuit for a dog that is baked or otherwise processed to form a biscuit. These dog biscuits can be made from any suitable dough or other starting material. One such advantageous combination is a biscuit made from a dough consisting of whole wheat flour, brewer's yeast, wheat germ, edible bone meal, chicken broth, canola oil, and whole egg. There is a deliberate method to using only natural ingredients in these formulations. Added sugar, corn syrup, any sucrose or fructose product is completely avoided as that could compromise the efficacy of the cariostatic and anti-cariogenic effects of the xylitol compound as described herein.
The term "cat treat" or treat as used herein means a treat for a cat that is baked or otherwise processed to form a treat. These cat treats can be made from any suitable dough or other starting material. One such advantageous combination consists of barley flour, ground chicken, whole eggs, edible bone meal, rye flour, canola oil, wheat germ, ascorbic acid, taurine, water, chicken or beef broth.
The term "sandwich" as used herein means a pet foodstuff which is comprised of two biscuits, treats, or other bulk foodstuff which are joined with a xylitol mixture between the biscuits, treats or other foodstuff.
The term "pocket" as used herein means a pet foodstuff which contains a xylitol mixture in the center of the pet foodstuff wherein the body of such pet foodstuff has been folded over and sealed to encompass the xylitol center.
The invention compositions of xylitol and xylitol-containing mixtures ameliorate the condition of dental caries and malodorous breath in animals, help heal inflamed gums, and otherwise re-mineralize teeth in which the formation of dental caries is incipient. As used in combination of biscuits or treats, powder added to drinking water, chew toys, freeze dried organ treats (e.g. liver, kidney, dried muscle chew treats, and gel, all of the products described herein comprise a comprehensive delivery system of xylitol and contribute to the dental health and well-being of animals using the invention. These "xylitol delivery systems" for pets can incorporate other ingredients that promote the health of hard and soft dental tissues. Examples of these ingredients are: zinc compound, parsley, and baking soda (dental malodor control), bone meal (supplies calcium and phosphate ions which promotes re-mineralization of teeth), Coenzyme Q10 (promotes periodontal health), folic acid (vitamin), the following botanicals: aloe vera, comfrey, rosemary, goldenseal, horsetail, arnica, calendula, barley grass, chamomile, bloodroot, siwak-miswak, pullulan, horse chestnut, neem, peelu, propolis, green tea, myrrh, birch bark, white oak bark, tea tree oil, grape seed extract and wheat germ, and the following enzymes: bromelain, papain and quercetin.

A. Preparation of the Material
1. Biscuits and Treats
The dog biscuits and cat treats must themselves be thoroughly dry after baking. The dog biscuits and cat treats are prepared by brushing, spraying or dipping each of the biscuits or treats with a xylitol and gum arabic mixture to coat the material. All such products are thoroughly dried either by heat or evaporation in a humidity controlled environment. The gum arabic and xylitol mixture gives the product a coating permitting the xylitol a greater ability to adhere to the outside of the biscuit or treat without penetrating or affecting the underlying material. Xylitol should comprise between 0.25% and 2.5% by weight of the total biscuit or treat. If a coating is utilized, the coating preferably should be between approximately 0.01 and 0.1 inches thick. The objective is to separate the xylitol compound from the biscuit or treat so that both may work independently, that is, chewing the treat will tend to scrape at built up plaque or tartar while the separate coating of xylitol will come into maximum contact with the animal's teeth to control S. mutans, bathe the gums, and aid in re-mineralization of certain dental caries.
2. Sandwich Biscuits/Treats and Pocket Biscuits
In sandwich or pocket biscuits or treats, xylitol should be present in an amount from about 0.25% to 2.5% by total weight of the item.
a. Sandwich Biscuits/Treats for Dogs and Cats
Preferably, sandwich biscuits/treats for dogs and cats are generally flat, although they can be of any desired shape and usually are composed of two opposed outer biscuit/treat pieces, usually labeled, and joined together with a xylitol-containing layer "sandwiched" between the two flat layers, appearing much the same as a cookie with a cream filling. This filling or layer can be the same for both dogs and cats and consists of, for example: powdered or granulated food grade xylitol, gum arabic, beef broth, chicken broth or distilled water, lecithin, Coenzyme Q10, folic acid, aloe vera, comfrey, rosemary, goldenseal, horsetail, arnica, calendula, barley grass, chamomile, bloodroot, siwak-miswak, pullulan, horse chestnut, neem, peelu, propolis, green tea, myrrh, birch bark, white oak bark, tea tree oil, grape seed extract, wheat germ, bromelain, papain and quercetin. If necessary, water may be added as a diluant. The xylitol-containing layer should contain material for maintaining the outer biscuit/treat layers together.
The sandwich biscuit for dogs usually will be made from a dough. Preferably the dough will contain all-natural ingredients and can include whole wheat flour, buckwheat, brewer's yeast, wheat germ, corn meal, edible bone meal, chicken broth, canola oil, and whole egg. The flours used (e.g., whole wheat, barley, soy, corn, rye, buckwheat, potato, rice, etc.) can be varied to accommodate allergic reactions the pet may have to one or more of the above ingredients. Any suitable dough composition can be utilized. In one embodiment, the sandwich treat for cats consists of dough containing all-natural ingredients: one or more flours (e.g., barley, whole wheat flour, corn meal, rye flour, soy flour, etc.), ground chicken, whole eggs, edible bone meal, canola oil, wheat germ, ascorbic acid, taurine, water, chicken or beef broth. The combination of flour may consist of one or more of the specified flours depending on the allergic reaction of the animal. Other flour combinations or a single flour ingredient may be substituted. The dough mixture for either biscuits or treats is rolled flat or otherwise formed into a flat sheet and may be cut into assorted shapes and sizes. It is preferable that the portion of the sheets that will be opposed in the sandwich are flat to allow the xylitol-containing layer to be of uniform thickness in the finished sandwich. The individual cut shapes are suitably baked, such as at approximately 300 degrees for approximately 45 minutes and are allowed to thoroughly cool to room temperature. As is known in the art, the optimum baking temperature and time will depend on various factors, including dough composition and thickness, for example. Then the xylitol-containing layer or filling as stated above is applied in a suitable manner, such as by spreading, for example, on at least one of the two biscuit/treat layers making up the biscuit/treat. A top biscuit/treat layer is applied on top of and preferably in substantial registry with the bottom layer with the xylitol-containing layer or filling located between the two biscuit/treat layers. If desired the top and bottom biscuit/treat layers can be of the same or different size and shape. Optionally, the assembled biscuits/treats can be dried in a humidity controlled environment at room temperature (68 to 80 degrees) for at least eight (8) hours until thoroughly dry.
b. Pocket Biscuits
Using a biscuit dough or cat treat dough, the dough is rolled or otherwise formed into a sheet and while still wet the following ingredients are added: powdered xylitol, powdered lactitol and aloe vera. The dough is then folded in half and cut into assorted shapes crimping the edges (other than the fold edge when present) of each of the shapes to form a closed pocket and then suitably baked, such as at approximately 300 degrees for approximately 45 minutes. As is known in the art, the optimum baking temperature and time will depend on various factors, including dough composition and thickness, for example. During the baking process the powdered ingredients melt inside the two layers of dough forming a somewhat "sticky" or "tacky" substance that will adhere to the dog's or cat's teeth when they chew the biscuit maximizing the delivery of xylitol to the teeth and gums. Preferably, when fully baked, the ingredients within the pocket remain "sticky" or "tacky" at the time of consumption by a pet.
3. Chews, Bones, Rawhides and Pigskins
Preferably, chews, bones, rawhides and pigskins contain at least about 0.25% xylitol by total weight of the item.
One suitable preferred method is hereinafter described. The pigskin is preferably a flat sheet. One side of the pigskin is coated with powdered xylitol and powdered lactitol. The coated pigskin is heated to make it pliable and is rolled or otherwise formed into a tubular shape. It is then cooled, usually to room temperature to retain its tubular shape. If desired, the pigskin may be cut into smaller sizes.
Alternatively, a mixture of xylitol, lactitol and HSH (hydrogenated starch hydrolyzate syrup) is heated to form a uniform solution. The resulting solution is applied to preferably one side of the pigskin. The coated pigskin is heated to make it pliable and is rolled or otherwise formed into a tubular shape. It is then cooled, usually to room temperature to retain its tubular shape. If desired, the pigskin may be cut into smaller sizes.
For the bones, the same ingredients are used as those for the pigskin. The ingredients are heated to form a solution and are introduced into the bone cavity by any suitable method, including brushing or spraying, and are allowed to cool.
For rawhides, preferably a flat sheet is utilized. Preferably one side of the rawhide is coated with powdered xylitol, powdered lactitol and HSH (hydrogenated starch hydrolyzate syrup). This rawhide is heated to make it pliable and is rolled or otherwise formed into a tubular shape. It is then cooled, usually to room temperature to retain its tubular shape. If desired, the rawhide may be cut into smaller sizes.
Alternatively, a mixture of xylitol, lactitol and HSH (hydrogenated starch hydrolyzate syrup) is heated to form a uniform solution. The resulting solution is applied to preferably one side of the pigskin. The coated pigskin is heated to make it pliable and is rolled or otherwise formed into a tubular shape. It is then cooled, usually to room temperature to retain its tubular shape. If desired, the pigskin may be cut into smaller sizes.
For chews (chew toys, freeze dried organ treats (e.g., liver, kidney, dried muscle chew treats), a xylitol mixture can be made with any number of compounds, such as xylitol and lactitol and sprayed, brushed or dipped onto the chew toy.
4. Xylitol Powdered Consumable Mouthwash
Consistent with a comprehensive dental delivery system and in an effort to make the xylitol product available to the animal as frequently as possible, one gram of xylitol is placed into a pet's water bowl to keep xylitol available for distribution to the pet's mouth, teeth and gums. This powder may be in granular or powdered form but must consist of food grade xylitol.
Additionally other ingredients (either singly or in combination) may be added such as aloe vera, zinc amino acid chelate, baking soda or various botanicals or enzymes.
A typical formulation for a single serving per cup of water consists of a range of 2 grams to 4 grams of xylitol, 25 to 75 milligrams of aloe vera (a 200:1 concentrate), 1 to 5 milligrams of zinc amino acid chelate. Optionally, 1 to 5 milligrams of baking soda and flavorings may be added.
5. Xylitol Gel
Three separate xylitol formulae may be used for the Xylitol Gel Product as follows:
(1) Xylitol and lactitol heated together to form a gel. The amounts are to be determined by a ratio of at least 51% xylitol and the balance is made up of lactitol. (Xylitol at least 51% and lactitol).
(2) Xylitol, lactitol and HSH (hydrogenated starch hydrolyzate syrup) are heated together. Typical proportions are Xylitol fifty percent (50%), Lactitol thirty percent (30%), and HSH twenty percent (20%).
(3) Xylitol and HSH are heated together. Typical proportions must include at least fifty one (51%) percent xylitol and the balance is lactitol.
C. Method of Administration
Delivery of xylitol-containing mixture is preferably made as follows:
(1) Feeding a dog biscuit or cat treat immediately after the animal is fed a regularly scheduled meal.
(2) Use of xylitol powder in the animal's water allowing the animal access to some concentration of xylitol throughout the day or if the animal is allowed to "free feed" which means that it has "on demand" feeding as it desires.
(3) Use of chew toys or treats either coated or impregnated with the xylitol mixture. This places xylitol in contact with teeth and gums during the period of use.
(4) Application of a topical gel containing xylitol with lactitol and/or HSH which "sticks" to the animal's teeth and gradually bathes the gums during the night or during times when the animal is not likely to feed or drink.
D. Effectiveness and Use
Xylitol and xylitol-containing compounds have been the subject of extensive studies. For best results, from about 0.5 to 5 grams of xylitol in total should be consumed daily by dogs, and from about 0.25 to 3 grams of xylitol in total should be consumed by cats.
Referring to the figures generally, and particularly to FIGS. 1 and 2, there is illustrated a pet foodstuff 10 which in this case is a dog biscuit, in accordance with the invention. Pet foodstuff 10 is composed of a solid body 12 of baked farinaceous material and xylitol solid coating 14.

I collected a few items in Dust Clouds, including a Leaf Stone to evolve my Exeggcute into Exeggutor.
Also, my Skorupi evolved into Drapion.
I also battled Austin at the Ferris Wheel using my new Drapion and he won against Austin's Swoobat. I'm about to ride on the Ferris Wheel.

SeaChange International introduced additions to its MediaLibrary/MediaClient family of broadcast play-to-air solutions at IBC2010.
Now available, the new Universal MediaLibrary 7200 and the MediaClient 8200 are next-generation software, streaming and storage solutions that capitalize on SeaChange's openness, versatility and reliability.
With these introductions, SeaChange transitions from its proprietary media file formats to supporting open-standard formats, including MXF and MOV, which extends the company's product support for tapeless workflows including NLE and MAM systems.
The MediaClient 8200, the latest in the series of broadcast-quality modular software codecs, enables multiformat and multiresolution playout. Configurations include SD only and SD/HD; each provides MXF interoperability.
