Dog Dies at Groomers from Heat Exhaustion
This is not the first time a story has been sent to me regarding the lack of care and responsibility at a "pet grooming center".
I am going to post the actual letter that I received, as I cannot state it better
Read and Share, this could be your dog and it is time to do something about this.
"Hi Becky,
A week ago, we lost our beloved 17-year-old dog to a very negligent groomer.
We took our dog, Curly, in to be groomed around 11:30 in the morning.
By late day, around 5 p.m. with no word from the groomer, we decided to check on the status.
We walked into the location in hopes that Curly was ready to come home and the first words we were told was that our dog had died.
You can only imagine!
They blamed the death on stress and his old age.
When we went in to see our Curly he was in a small cage lying down from corner to corner, nose to tail. We reached in to pet him and noticed that his body temperature was really warm, hot actually and noticed some discoloration around his belly.
We asked the groomer how long ago they found that Curly had passed and were told that they just found him prior to our arrival.
We were confused, concerned let alone emotional about this horrific news.
We took Curly to our Pet Medical Center immediately approximately 45 minutes from the time we took his sweet body from the groomer.
We explained what had just taken place, that he died at the groomers and made note about his high body temperature and could they do a necropsy.
Upon examination, we were informed that Curlys body temperature was greater than 109.5 even an hour after we took him and the discolorations on his belly were DIC spots, which are evidence of extreme stress most likely heat related; the discolorations are a form of bruising caused when the blood cannot clot normally. It is apparently common with heat stroke.
Basically this news confirmed that Curly did die of a heatstroke.
We went back to the hospital the next day, our goal was to make sure everything we had discussed was confirmed and documented in his file.
In our discussion we were told that many groomers will put the animal in a small cage after they are bathed then put a hanging blow dryer on the cage to dry the animals.
This was consistent with the groomer's statement about how the side of Curlys cage was hot and why Curly was in a small cage when we found him. The vet tech said they have seen this before but never a temperature to this extreme and that basically he was cooked to death.
No dog, dead or alive temperatures should ever be greater than 109.5.
We want to get word out to animal lovers and owners out there that they should be aware of this possibly deadly practice by groomers.
When taking pets to get groomed, they should stress that they want the pets to be toweled dry only and NEVER with hot air dryers.
We understand how painful and difficult it can be to have a beloved family member die of such an unnecessary tragic death. Its heart breaking to think about what Curly may have gone through. We rescued him when he was seven years old and it is devastating to think that he was so mistreated again and basically murdered. This practice need to STOP!!
We have since learned that there are no license or regulation requirements for pet groomers.
In our case, we later learned that the groomer was a fill-in for the day at the store. We looked her name up on the internet and noticed that she normally works at a bakery and nowhere on her profile does it mention anything about her being a groomer.
There are no laws requiring groomers to be experienced.
We understand that there was legislation proposed back in 2012 for licensing groomers but was shot down. It would be great to be able to revive this proposal again so we can bring some comfort to pet owners that they can trust the groomers whom are handling their pets. I'm looking for help in any way to be able to do this.
I'm hoping you can help me with some suggestions. I want to spread the important message now and possibly eventually get regulation in place. "
So sorry for your tragic loss

In case you were unaware, Tuesday nights at Cazzies has been running strong for the last year, delivering deep, funky and chunky house music.

You can go out and hear that almost anywhere, any night of the week. We need your help to keep a quality night with quality music going. This Tuesday will be our last if we don't show the management that there is an interest in having a night dedicated to house music. I'm sure some of you have been to Cazzies in the past, right next to the Arlington Cafe. However, the club has just gone through a total re-model. They have installed a good sound system, a nice light show, and a little dancefloor. So it's night super bright with different sports being played on all of those Televisions. It actually feels like a place you would like to boogie. So come on out this Tuesday and support something(Continue reading)

Visceral Reality vs. NWO Fiction
Okay now write the same nasty things about Jim Rogers… oh, wait. Ron Paul, the only non NWO-puppet candidate in 35 years of living on this fucking ball of mud with imbeciles like your sorry ass and all manner of useful idiot has to buzz like an insect in the worst way possible. This is the final revolution. When you have successfully created a populace consisting of slaves who mistakenly think themselves free, when you have systematically so abused the mind of man, from birth to death with junk information and relentless lies, having literally programmed generations of humans, feeding them their "consciousness through a tube" – the war is over. The only thing left to us now is cultural and information-based warfare – the incrementalists have succeeded in creating the Ultimate Politcial Weapon – a zombie army electorate of brainwashed holier-than-thou experts equipped with endless ginned up data sets. People whose idea of rational critique is to string together 4chan memes. Thousands of years of art and culture reduced to "lolumadbro" Meanwhile… Logistical reality is knocking at the door and is ready to throw the author of this piece into the ash bin of history where he belongs.

Nov. 16, 2004
The Southern Illinois University athletic department announced its 2005 Hall of Fame Class Tuesday. The seven-person class, which will be inducted in a ceremony on Friday, Jan. 28, 2005, features Francisco "Pacho" Castillo (Men's Tennis, 1962-1964), Donnell Daniel (Football, 1982-83), Terry Finn (Wrestling, 1962-64), Bill Hancock (Men's Track, 1972-75), Kasia McClendon (Women's Basketball, 1994-97), Mike Reis (Voice of the Salukis, 1978-Present) and Gary Wilson (Men's Basketball, 1975-79).
Francisco "Pacho" Castillo (Men's Tennis, 1962-1964) helped lead the Salukis to the College Division National Championship in 1964 and runner-up finish in 1963. He was named All-American in 1964 as the Salukis posted a perfect 16-0 record, winning their last three matches against Indiana, Northwestern and Notre Dame. Castillo, a native of Bogota, Columbia, played primarily at #2 singles and compiled a 39-10 career record. The left-hander was the IIAC Conference Singles Champion at #1 in 1962. Currently, Castillo lives in Miami, Fla., where he helps design and construct tennis courts.
Donnell Daniel (Football, 1982-83) was a star cornerback for the Salukis' 1983 I-AA National Championship team. He was an Associated Press All-American in 1983 and the Missouri Valley Conference "Defensive Player of the Year." In 1983, he had seven interceptions and returned three of them for touchdowns. A dynamic athlete, he also returned a punt 85 yards for a touchdown in 1983. Daniel ranks fourth in career interceptions at SIU with 11. After his career with the Salukis, Daniel played two years in the United States Football League (USFL) with New Jersey and Los Angeles. When his playing career ended, he spent three years in the United States Air Force. Currently, he is the athletic director at the U.S. naval base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
Terry Finn (Wrestling, 1962-64) was a three-time national champion wrestler back in an era when fans packed Davies Gym to see the Saluki grapplers. Finn won the NCAA College Division championship in the 123-pound weight class in 1963, the NCAA College Division championship in the 115-pound weight class in 1964, and the NCAA University Division championship in the 115-pound weight class in 1964. Finn was a member of SIU's IIAC championship team in 1962 and finished sixth in the University Division meet. Finn currently resides in Tustin, Calif., where he owns and manages a mail and packing store.
Bill Hancock (Men's Track, 1972-75) was a star decathlete for the Salukis in the 1970s. He made world history by becoming the first decathlete to clear 7'0'' in the high jump. He earned All-American status in 1975 by finishing fifth at nationals in the indoor high jump with a mark of 6'11''. A testament to his enduring legacy, many of Hancock's marks from 30 years ago still rank among the best in school history. He ranks fifth in the indoor high jump (7'1'' in 1975). fifth in the outdoor high jump (7'2'' in 1975) and eigth in the outdoor 110m high hurdles (14.34 in 1975). Hancock currently lives in Canton, Ill. where he is a safety inspector for the U.S. Department of Labor.
Kasia McClendon (Women's Basketball, 1994-97) is perhaps the finest defensive player in school history. She was a three-time MVC Defensive Player of the Year (1995, 1996, 1997) and ranks first in career steals at SIU and in the MVC with 366. In 1997, she led the nation in steals. McClendon was a First-Team All-MVC selection in 1996 and 1997, and honorable mention All-MVC in 1995. She ranks 11th in career scoring at SIU with 1,167 points and third in career 3-pointers with 103. McClendon lives in Merrillville, Ind., and works as a job and family permancy specialist.
Mike Reis (Voice of the Salukis, 1978-Present) has described the action of many of the greatest sports moments in school history as the Salukis' play-by-play announcer for the last 26 years. A 1978 graduate of SIU's radio & television program, Reis calls the action for Saluki football, men's basketball and baseball. He also serves as host of radio call-in shows and is a frequent emcee at Saluki athletic functions. His distinctive delivery, impressive insight and passion for Saluki sports make listening to a game a rich experience. A resident of Carbondale, Reis is a sports icon in southern Illinois.
Gary Wilson (Men's Basketball, 1975-79) was a key member of the Salukis' first NCAA Tournament team, which advanced to the Sweet 16 in 1977. Wilson was a First-Team All-MVC pick in 1978 and a Second-Team All-MVC selection in 1979. His career statistics are remarkable. He ranks eighth in career scoring with 1,513 points, sixth in career rebounding with 841 and fifth in career blocks with 99. He led the team in rebounds all four years he played. During his career, he averaged 14.0 ppg and led the team in scoring in 1977-78 with 19.0 ppg. He was drafted by the Kansas City Kings in the 10th round in 1979, though he did not play in the National Basketball Association. Sadly, Wilson passed away in September after a heart attack. The Columbus, Ga. native was 47. He will be represented at the induction ceremony by his brother-in-law and long-time friend, Oscar Dixon, who is the pro basketball editor at USA Today.

An ancient four-limbed creature that's thought to be the first ever to walk on land couldn't actually walk at all, researchers have discovered.
Mud skipper.
Instead, they think the animal, called a tetrapod, simply hauled itself out of the primordial ooze with its two front limbs, using its back limbs merely for balance.
'These early tetrapods probably moved in a similar way to living mudskipper fishes in which the front fins, or arms, are used like crutches to haul the body up and forward,' explains Dr Stephanie Pierce from the University of Cambridge and The Royal Veterinary College, lead author of the study.
The shift from swimming to walking was a pivotal step in the evolution of land-dwelling animals like us. Rather than fins, creatures destined for the land had to develop limbs, which are essential for getting about.
Early tetrapods ticked this box. So scientists assumed that because they had four limbs – instead of fins – they could walk, 'a bit like a salamander.' The idea was that they'd do this by coordinating each limb in a sequence just like today's four-legged animals.
'It also shows that just because you have limbs, it doesn't mean you can walk.'Dr Stephanie Pierce, University of Cambridge and The Royal Veterinary College
But since the 90s, researchers have gathered a wealth of evidence to suggest that, despite having limbs, early tetrapods lived primarily in water. This means they might not have simply walked along the ground, but instead used some other form of locomotion. Some scientists have even suggested they might have moved a bit like seals do.
'So, the question is, what did they do with their limbs?' says Pierce.
To find out, she and colleagues from the University of Cambridge and the Royal Veterinary College created the first ever 3D computer model of a tetrapod's skeleton to work out how its limbs might have moved.
They scanned dozens of fossil specimens of a tetrapod that lived around 360 million years ago called Ichthyostega. They digitally separated the bones from the rock surrounding the fossils. Then they put each bone back together, ' like a jigsaw puzzle,' using animation software, before carefully manipulating the model to estimate each joint's range of motion.
To make sure their computer model was reliable, they built similar models of seals, salamanders, platypuses, crocodiles and otters and used the model to test their joint movements. They describe their findings in Nature.

They found that the creature wouldn't have been able to move its hip and shoulder joints very much at all. Not just that, but its limbs couldn't rotate along their long axis, a movement that's essential for locomotion in today's land animals.
This means it almost certainly couldn't push its body off the ground and move its limbs in turn.
'All this points to the idea that limbs may have evolved before the ability to actually walk,' says Pierce.
'It also shows that just because you have limbs, it doesn't mean you can walk,' she adds.
The findings suggest that 400 million-year-old footprints discovered in Poland two years ago – thought to have been made by similar tetrapods – may have been made by an altogether different animal.
The research team says the next step is to combine their models of limb movement with similar models of the rest of the skeleton, as well as the muscles to make a more accurate judgement about these animals' gait.
They also want to analyse how another tetrapod, called Acanthostega would have got about.
'We're hoping to get a deeper understanding of how these creatures moved. What was their athletic performance like? Did they move slowly? And we want to know when the ability to walk on all four legs first evolved,' Pierce says.
Interesting? Spread the word using the 'share' menu on the top right.
Post a comment
Your article states "... its limbs couldn't rotate along their long axis, a movement that's essential for locomotion in today's land animals." Do you mean rotate about, or along the longitudinal axis? They're very differnt movements: a diagram would have helped.

Jumping into the World Cup celebrations, Tide has launched a campaign called "Keep It Clean" to celebrate the traditional jersey exchange and discuss how the laundry detergent keeps clothes clean and ready for the exchange. During a roof top soccer match between two juvenile teams in Miami's Brickell area, Tide explained the initiative and invited media to share "selfies" to win a year supply of laundry detergent. Sportscaster Andrés Cantor, best known for yelling "GOL" when a team scores, was on hand as an official spokesperson for the campaign.
Mr. Cantor shared with the media ways to get children interested in the sport, his predictions for the 2014 games and why it's important for him to be part of the "Keep It Clean" campaign. He then kicked off the jersey exchange and scrimmage between two local children's soccer teams. The event was held at the Soccer Rooftop on Brickell.
After each soccer match, players exchange jerseys as a sign of good sportsmanship and unity. Tide has launched a Tumblr page to house all of the Keep It Clean videos and images http://tidekeepitclean.tumblr.com

With a collection of vintage cameras that would impress even Andy Warhol, Jodi Bates definitely has "options" when it comes to how she sees the world (or through which lens). In 2011, Bates challenged herself to a 52-week project, with the goal of shooting using her varied arsenal of cameras. Thus her project began: utilizing her collection of instant, medium format, toy, SLR's, rangefinders, and other cameras in a weekly commitment to documentation and artistic expression.
While the project started as an experiment and means of learning how to utilize obsolete equipment, it quickly shifted as Bates found her own narrative voice behind the lens, becoming equal part journey and visual journal.
Bates selected one camera per week, in a analog interpretation of the usually-digital "Project 365" style photo projects, citing that the creative process should be organic and flow naturally. Bates states: "when you try to tame [creativity], it becomes fleeting. A week seems like a good amount of time to allow myself the ability to see a beautiful moment and capture it."
The "52 Cameras Project" was completed January 1, 2012. Bates is quoted as saying she feels "naked" leaving the house without a camera around her neck or in her bag; this book is the fruit of her labor: a year's worth of memories, approximately 70 rolls of film, countless trips to the camera supply store, and ultimately, a completed body of work spanning over 1,000 images over the course of one year, all from 52 unique cameras.

If you're looking for a capable and comfortable SUV, look no further than the 2013 Ford Expedition. This full-size SUV is one of the remaining few still capable of seating eight, all in plush accommodations.
Ford has kept the Expedition truck-like, making it an excellent choice for families who need towing capabilities. It is powered by a 310-horsepower 5.4-liter V8 engine. The 365 pound-feet of torque allow the 2013 Ford Expedition to keep up with traffic, even while hauling a heavy load. The V8 engine is paired with a six-speed transmission and all-wheel drive for great performance. Its maximum towing capacity is an astonishing 9,200 pounds. Although some might worry its size will make for a difficult drive, the 2013 Ford Expedition's precise steering and well-made suspension make it easy to control.
For any large vehicle designed for families, safety is an important issue. That's why Ford gave it top-notch safety gear, like side curtain airbags to protect all three rows of seating. The 2013 Ford Expedition also includes Trailer Sway Control as a standard feature. This system works with the stability control system and takes extra measures, applying precise braking and reducing engine torque, to bring both the vehicle and trailer under control. A backup camera is optional to improve visibility.

One of the most famed, accomplished, brilliant, powerful, and wealthy beauties of the 20th century, Clare Boothe Luce, had everything -- including depression that led to suicide attempts, said biographer Sylvia Jukes Morris at the June 22 launch of "Price Of Fame: The Honorable Clare Boothe Luce" (Random House).
Best-known as the playwright of "The Women" and wife of Time-Life creator Henry Luce, Clare Boothe Luce was also a two-term Congresswoman from Connecticut; America's first woman ambassador to a major country; friend (or enemy) of several Presidents; war correspondent; managing editor of "Vanity Fair" by age 30; a child understudy to Mary Pickford...
But what a high "Price of Fame", notes Sylvia Jukes Morris, whose first volume was "Rage for Fame: The Ascent of Clare Boothe Luce (Random House).
Luce had "terrible health". She suffered such severe colitis that she was hospitalized. Even worse -- her depressions, which she called "'the dismals'".
"Whenever she was out of the spotlight, she got depressed, even suicidal...and made two suicide attempts," Morris told the rapt audience at the Smithsonian's National Portrait Gallery.
"At one point, it was so bad that her doctor thought she should check into Payne Whitney (psychiatric hospital). "But she got a call from President Eisenhower (who'd appointed her ambassador to Italy) saying the Pope had died, and she was back in the spotlight," Morris said.
She had always been "a depressive" but got "worse with age" -- especially after she converted to Catholicism. She also tried uppers, downers, and LSD, which she got hooked on, the biographer noted.
Luce had thought that converting to Catholicism "would help her feel better about everything, and see the world through rose-colored glasses," Morris said. "But she got worse."
She tried LSD, used back then to treat depression and other mental problems. "Clare had good trips. She got hooked on it, and kept taking it." One time Henry Luce took it and thought he was conducting an orchestra in the garden. "Hilarious; he was not musical at all."
During one of many calls to the biographer, when Clare Boothe Luce was 80, she said "'I have a terrible case of the dismals...It's Saturday night and I haven't a beau.'"
Her beaux//lovers had been numerous and famous, including financial speculator Bernard Baruch; "all the generals on the Western front, and a few on the Eastern front"; and men far younger than she was as she grew older. "'Better to have regrets than remorse'" is one of her many famous witticisms.
But at age 80 on that Saturday night, she said she wanted a "'homosexual Admiral with a lot of medals. I wouldn't have to put out at the end of the night.'"
She had gotten her values from her mother -- "'My mother poisoned my life,'" Luce told Morris. The mother, Anna, a "stunning beauty with violet eyes", was "a piece of work", and ended up "like a call girl."
Clare and her brother David were illegitimate. Eventually, David committed suicide.
"The thing that disturbed her most was her childhood," the author said. "She had seen too much trauma, and was exposed to too much too soon. Whenever we talked about that, she became very down."
Luce had resisted a biography, stalling Morris by explaining, "'My life has been so unhappy.'" One of the worst crises: her only daughter, Ann, was killed in a car crash.
Her "acid wit was her saving grace." Other famous quips: "No good deed goes unpunished." And "The difference between an optimist and a pessimist is, the pessimist is usually better informed."
Her "chutzpah", extraordinary ambition, brilliance, sex appeal, and luck propelled her to the top.
She wanted to work at "Vogue", so she simply walked into the offices, sat at an empty desk, and started writing captions. Soon, she was recruited for "Vanity Fair", and swiftly became managing editor by age 30.
"She had a low boring point. As soon as she mastered anything, she wanted to move on."
Part of the reason she was able to move on so fast and far was a "combination that was lethal to men -- beautiful, charming, intellectually brilliant, funny..." the biographer said.
The life story of the so-called "woman of the century" is "an inspirational tale, but also a cautionary tale."
And the tale in two volumes is told masterfully by Sylvia Jukes Morris.

Mayor Vincent Gray will maintain the expansion of services for homeless residents based on National Weather Service projections of frigid air and wind-chill temperatures in the District through January 25, 2014. The expanded services include emergency shelters at designated recreation centers and warming buses located throughout the city.
These measures will continue through Saturday, January 25, 2014 at 9:00 a.m. or until the Cold Emergency Alert is deactivated by the District's Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency (HSEMA).
Extreme cold temperatures in the region threaten the lives of people who are homeless. Those most at risk for cold-related injuries, including hypothermia and frostbite, are referred to as "chronically homeless," On January 21, Mayor Gray and HSEMA Director Chris Geldart activated the city's Cold Emergency Plan. The activation will continue until the temperature, including wind chill, reaches at least 20 degrees Fahrenheit.
In coordination with the District's Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency (HSEMA), WMATA is providing buses to serve as warming stations to keep homeless individuals out of the frigid cold and wind. The buses remained open until 9:00 a.m., Thursday, January 23; will reopen at 3:00 p.m.; and will repeat the same schedule on Friday, January 24 and through the morning of Saturday, January 25. Bus locations are:
- 5th and C Streets NW
- Massachusetts Avenue and 1st Street NE
- 17th and H Streets NW
- West End Library (23rd and L Streets NW)
- 27th and K Streets NW
Gray activated four DC Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) sites to serve as overflow shelters during the cold emergency. As of Thursday, January 23, 2014, these Centers will close each morning at 7:00 a.m. and reopen at 7:00 p.m. These Centers include:
- Kennedy Recreation Center (1401 7th Street NW)
- Columbia Heights Recreation Center (1480 Girard Street NW)
- Banneker Recreation Center (2500 Georgia Avenue NW)
- Emory Recreation Center (5801 Georgia Avenue NW)
Every effort will be made by homeless outreach teams to secure an individual's cooperation with voluntary transport to a warm and safe setting. If someone refuses to go inside, the Department of Behavioral Health and Metropolitan Police Department are prepared to exercise authority under D.C. law to transport those homeless individuals with a mental illness who are not able to protect themselves from the extreme cold to medical and emergency facilities. A homeless man was found frozen to death on January 8th, 2014, on Allentown Road in Prince George's County, Maryland. Gray is trying to avoid the loss of life in D.C.
Residents are encouraged to contact shelter hotlines to request help for homeless persons. Providers and the public may contact the Shelter Hotline via:
- Calling 1-800-535-7252
- Calling 202-399-7093
- Calling 311 or 211
- E-mailing firstname.lastname@example.com
Include the time when the reporter saw the homeless person, the location of the sighting, a description of the person's appearance (such as clothing), and the person's name, if known.
Pets should be brought indoors during hypothermia alerts and extreme cold weather. To report cruelty, neglect, and animal emergencies 24 hours a day, call the Washington Humane Society at 202-723-5730.
"Our Cold Weather Emergency response teams are ready to hit the streets to make sure that no one is left out in the cold. I applaud our outreach teams and first responders and continue to remind residents to be on the lookout for any vulnerable neighbors," Gray said.

CA Police Caught on Video Brutalizing Cooperative Couple in Home
On May 10, police in Cotati, Calif., received a domestic violence call — an alleged complaint that evidently didn't come from either of the people inside the home — and converged on the residence. There were four of them.
There was a child playing in the front yard. The homeowners informed police their other child was with them in the home.
The cops knocked on the door then announced they were there because they received a domestic violence call. The husband and wife both reply, without opening the door, that there hadn't been any violence — simply an argument "with yelling." That assertion would jibe with the circumstances: There was the happy child out front, who didn't appear traumatized by whatever had recently transpired.
As the police persisted in their demand to be allowed access, the homeowners became alarmed and began recording everything, at first while speaking to police through the window, then later at much closer range. The homeowner reiterates that there hadn't been any domestic violence, that there had simply been an argument.
On the video, what appears to be the alpha cop tells the family, still from outside the home, that they're coming in if someone doesn't open the door.
Another cop asks the couple why they won't come out.
"Because we don't live in a police state, sir — martial law has not been established in this country," came the reply.
Agitated cops typically don't walk away from someone's front door once their blood is hot — whether they have a right to be there or not — without extracting a cathartic pound of flesh. What cop can be expected to abide a citizen who stands his legal ground, to perceive a citizen's conscientious and well-informed acquittal of his own rights as anything but mockery and sass?
Not these ones.
Despite the fact that the police had no warrant and had no probable cause to enter, the police ordered the couple to go ahead and get down on the ground and put their hands in the "cuff me" position behind them, because "we're gonna kick in the door."
And that's what they did. The couple hadn't gotten on the ground and they didn't have their hands behind their backs; nor did they offer any physical resistance — even though their home had just been illegally invaded by armed strangers hiding behind dark sunglasses and a badge. The cops used a Tazer on the wife first, then used a Tazer on the husband.
That's when the video gets shaky, before ending abruptly.
Cotati Police Chief Michael Parish said a criminal investigation is ongoing, though he didn't say whether his own thugs were the subjects of the investigation. He also said there would be an "administrative review" of the cops' adherence to policy and procedure.

Maybe a shotgun blast to the face of the man looking through the window would have been appropriate???

Like Anonymous said in their post above… if a few more "Badge Bully" cops got a face full of buckshot, then maybe a lot more would end up being more respectful of our rights.

Research San Diego police Officer Thomas Riggs & Officer Donovon Jacobs. It's a beautiful story.
This happens all too often these days. Things have got to change in this country. We are a police state and under martial law. No wonder this administration wants our guns.

College Hockey:Carruthers Steps Up, Symington Perfect as Saints Earn Title Defense
LAKE PLACID, N.Y. — When Mike Gellard, Erik Anderson and Alan Fyfe are kept off the scoring sheet, it's not always a great night for St. Lawrence.
Well, they were, and it was anyway.
Junior right winger Robin Carruthers netted two goals and senior Jeremy Symington had a perfect night in net as the top-seeded Saints advanced to the ECAC championship game with a 2-0 semifinal win over fourth-seeded Dartmouth before 4,990 fans at 1980 Olympic Rink.
Carruthers' game-winner came early in the second period, as the junior scored from the point on a power play to break the scoreless tie. In net, Symington avenged a tough performance against Dartmouth earlier in the season to turn aside 42 shots.
Now, St. Lawrence (19-12-4) has a chance to defend its 2000 league title.
"I think the only motivation we needed tonight was playing here for a championship," Symington said. "This is something we've been working for all year, and now we're one step closer to realizing that dream."
The Saints went 0-1-1 against Dartmouth during the regular season, and were facing a Big Green team coming off an emotional, 3-2 overtime win over Vermont in the preliminary game Thursday night.
But St. Lawrence was cool under pressure, defending its top seeding by fending off a spirited Big Green attack in the opening period before taking control with several quality scoring chances in the second.
Throughout the night, the blueliners and Symington were dependable, as the former group kept the Big Green (16-13-4) mostly on the perimeter while the netminder minimized Dartmouth's rebound chances.
Now, St. Lawrence takes its winning mix into the championship game.
"We felt like we peppered their goalie," Dartmouth junior Chris Baldwin said. "I think the shots ended up around 2-to-1 in our favor. It's a credit to Symington. He played an outstanding game tonight, especially in the third period. I felt like we had a bunch of great opportunities, but when he left the rebound, their guys cleaned it up."
A day after the dramatic victory over Vermont, Dartmouth showed lot of energy against the Saints, pouring 42 shots on Symington.
The goaltender was perfect, however, as the Saints extended their Lake Placid shutout streak to 149:28, dating back to last year's 2-0 semifinal win against Rensselaer.
With the loss, the Big Green will face second-seeded Harvard in the consolation game Saturday at 4 p.m.
"I think we've got a quality hockey team. I think we're as good a team as there is in our league," Gaudet said. "We ran into a good team that received an outstanding performance by their goaltender.
"It's been a long time. It's been a drought for Dartmouth that we wanted to put an end to. We won three playoff games. We're not pleased with tonight's result, but this team will be back. We have a good group of guys coming back."
The teams skated to a scoreless but competitive opening 20 minutes, as Dartmouth took 11 shots to St. Lawrence's 10. Both goalies played well, each neutralizing a handful of chances from the slot.
The Saints were outshot, 13-6, in the middle frame, but claimed most of the quality scoring chances, as all of their shots were from either the circles or the slot. They hit two posts in the period.
St. Lawrence opened the scoring at 1:28 of the period, converting on a power play when Carruthers snapped off a shot from the point that made its way through traffic and past goaltender Nick Boucher (22 saves). Carruthers' goal, his fifth of the year, was assisted by Josh LeRoy and Jim Lorentz.
The Saints stretched their lead to two goals seven minutes into the third stanza, as Carruthers had a breakaway seconds after a Big Green power play and punched his sixth of the season past Boucher.
That ended the scoring, as the Saints whittled down the clock the rest of the way.
"This was a typical playoff game," Marsh said. "Dartmouth gave us all we could handle down in our zone. We just kept working hard. We've been in a lot of games like this, so we just kept emphasizing to the guys to use their experience. We've got some experience, but it doesn't do any good if you don't use it."
Dartmouth will face Harvard in the consolation at 4 p.m., while St. Lawrence will battle Cornell for the title at 7:30.
Big Green Notes: The Big Green lineup was back to normal. Jamie Herrington, who sat out Thursday's 3-2 overtime win against Vermont with a back injury, re-entered the lineup in his usual centering position between Jason Costa and Michael Byrne. Brian Van Abel, who hurt his shoulder in the Vermont game, fought through the injury to play on the blue line.
Saints Notes: Robin Carruthers' goal gave him eight points in the last seven games. … Jim Lorentz' assist on Carruthers' goal extended the left winger's scoring streak to three games, all in the playoffs. … Coach Joe Marsh had some kind words for Vermont coach Mike Gilligan after the game. He said, "Mike did a tremendous job in that emotional series at Clarkson. I hope everyone realizes that there was a lot of talk about what happened last year. That might be one of the real stories of this tournament, the way they stuck with it. Mr. Gilligan is an example for all coaches in the country. He stuck by his players."

Healthy eating isn't a new craze by far but the value of a mason jar is renewed. Lately, as the mason jar salad makes another round on Facebook, a few questions come to mind. Does it really work? How long will it really last? Is salad in a jar really as delicious as they say? What's the fate of the cheese? And finally, is it really worth all the trouble? This article sets out to discover the salad jar's secrets.
Always check your sources
Chances are, if there's a recipe out there, there are two or three others with similar and dissimilar information. It's easy to check and as they say, the Devil is in the details. After some research an immediate difference emerges between recipes. The recipe from theKitchn seemed the most concerned with questions of longevity, warning not to add "perishable proteins" (avocados, tomatoes, eggs or chicken) until the day the salad will be eaten. It is a widely known fact that sliced tomatoes won't even last a day in any situation. Still, the idea of making a salad in a jar only to add salad fixins again days later seems rather redundant.
The salad jar recipe by Be More Fitness suggests using cherry tomatoes and claims that hard boiled eggs will last up to a week inside a sealed jar. They make no claims about chicken or avocados though the mason jar salads shown have cooked shrimp and kiwi slices inside.
A mason jar does make a tight seal, however; that has been proven by decades of use. After some experimentation, the cherry tomatoes and hard boiled eggs were able to last the week without any wilting or browning. Avocados haven't had their day in court (or jar) but cheese lasted well and was undisturbed after a full week in the salad jar.
In need of a wide mouth?
The new wave of Do-It-Yourself innovation is about using what's already on hand to create a brand spanking new product. Anyone hip on crafts and reuse knows never to throw away a glass jar or lid. Rather than asking what a glass jar is good for, ask what a glass jar can't be used for. The answer to either question probably isn't to hold a salad, but there it is.
The first issue to present itself with the mason jar is that the salad is pretty difficult to get out of a standard mason jar (the type likely on hand). Use of a knife or chopstick helps get things moving but use of a wide mouth mason jar can prevent this issue altogether. Don't have any wide mouth mason jars on hand? There in lies the rub. It's okay, they are for sale at grocery stores everywhere and are 100% reusable. Then again, so are knives and chopsticks.
Be More Fitness doesn't specify jar size and instructs "when ready to eat: shake jar, place on plate, and eat." Well, in a standard jar you may shake it all you like and nothing is going to move around in there. The salad is pretty packed inside that jar and very plainly, doesn't shake.
Once agitated, the salad will come out with the dressing on top, as it began in the bottom of the jar, but the salad won't be well covered with dressing. That will require good ole fashioned manual labor. If the jar is less packed it may shake but then runs the risk of the greens touching the dressing before eating day, which will cause wilting and rot. The key is finding the ratio of how much salad to eat: to how much space to maneuver within the jar.
The Kitchn suggests a wide mouth jar and makes no promise the salad can be shaken for dressing distribution. After some experimentation, know you will be mixing your salad and serve it in a bowl and not on a plate.
Appetizing eye teasers
Perhaps the biggest draw of the mason jar salad is how intriguing it looks arranged in colorful layers in the jar. It really does look cute and appetizing all lined up in the fridge and will perhaps help inspire you to eat salad when you went to the fridge in search of something else. The more varied the salad ingredients, the more appetizing the salad. Nothing wrong with that.
Leftover salad is nothing more than compost
It's pretty obvious that making four salads is just as easy as making one salad, if not easier, since once chopping begins you will surely end up with extra ingredients. Why leave behind half a cucumber? Once half that lettuce head is chopped, you've got the knife out and the cutting board is already dirty, why not just finish the job? The problem is usually that left over salad is nothing more than compost. Once created, a salad has little to no shelf life. Making a salad isn't so simple of a thing either, as it usually contains at least a half dozen ingredients.
In this way the mason jar salad really delivers. Prepare a weeks worth of salads, seal them in a jar and they will remain as fresh as can be. Know that it does take a little grunt work to load the jars and later to extricate the salad, but know that any moment the salad urge strikes, you can eat instead of chop.
Final verdict: well worth the trouble.

After 22 NFL seasons, kicker John Carney said it's still hard to deal with being released, but he wasn't particularly surprised or upset when the New Orleans Saints let him go again on Tuesday.
"Just understanding the business and the situation we're in right now, with the Saints roster being tight with injuries," Carney said. "They're trying to get the right players on the field to get back on the right track. I understand the move.
"It is (hard). But I still feel fortunate and blessed that I had the opportunity to come here even for two weeks. It's always great to be here with the coaches and teammates and to offer whatever help I could to the special teams and to Garrett (Hartley).
The Saints brought Carney back two weeks ago as a temporary replacement for the struggling Hartley. But after Carney missed a 29-yard field goal attempt of his own Sunday at Arizona, the team apparently decided that it was the right time to turn back to Hartley. And with needs piling up at other positions, they apparently can't afford the luxury of keeping two kickers on the roster.
Carney, who considered his role to be a mentor to Hartley as much as a replacement, said he expects Hartley to perform well when he returns to his starting role Sunday at Tampa Bay.
"He kicked really well the last two weeks (in practice) and worked very hard," Carney said. "We had the opportunity to evaluate things and fix some technical issues."
At some point in the future, Carney may be interested in rejoining the Saints in a coaching or consultant capacity again. But for now he said he wants to keep kicking in the NFL if another team offers an opportunity.

By Joe Scalzo
The strangest thing about Youngstown State's football opener wasn't that it took place on a Thursday night or that it wasn't against a BCS program.
The strangest thing was this: the Penguins' opponent was from Ohio.
From 2004-12, YSU played 32 teams from 21 different states. But since their series with Kent State ended in 2003, just three of those teams have been from Ohio: Ohio State (in 2007-08), Central State (2008) and Dayton (2013).
And for that, you can either thank, or blame, the Mid-American Conference. Nearly two decades after keeping Youngstown State out of the MAC, the MAC is content to stay out of Youngstown.
"Our ADs [athletic directors] agreed several years ago to have parameters in non-conference scheduling to play more peer conferences and limit FCS opponents to only home games," wrote Ken Mather, the MAC's media relations director, via email.
That's a deal-breaker for YSU athletic director Ron Strollo, whose school hasn't hosted a MAC team since 1997, when the Penguins beat Kent State.
"They created that policy and I think it goes back to when I took over as athletic director," said Strollo, who replaced Jim Tressel as AD in 2001. "It's disappointing because it obviously eliminated some of the rivalries our fans really enjoyed.
"I don't know the reasoning behind it but it's been awhile since we tried. Obviously, we would love to see those games on our schedule."
YSU — which tried to get in the MAC in the late 1990s, only to be rejected in favor of Marshall and Buffalo — has a winning record against Kent State (6-4) and Akron (19-14-2), which are both located within 50 miles of Youngstown. (By contrast, the closest team to Youngstown in the Missouri Valley Football Conference is Indiana State, which is more than 400 miles away).
Because YSU competes with Akron and Kent for recruits, Strollo doesn't want to schedule only road games with those schools, believing it sends a message that the Penguins are a lesser program. Ohio has the second-most FBS schools in the nation (eight) but six of those are in the MAC: Akron, Bowling Green, Kent, Miami, Ohio and Toledo.
In Strollo's mind, only two Ohio schools are clearly superior to YSU.
"It's Ohio State and Cincinnati and the rest of them," he said. "I think as you look at the Mid-American Conference, I don't know if we would schedule them any different than any other non-BCS school."
(Note: Thanks to the dissolution of the Big East, at least as a football conference, Cincinnati no longer has a BCS affiliation.)
In January, Devin Crosby was hired as Kent State's deputy athletic director, where he supervises the football and basketball programs. Before that, he spent two years at FCS-member Towson, where he tried (and failed) to schedule home games against FBS schools.
"We tried two-for-one [two road games for one home game], three-for-one and even adding other sports to try to make the pie even sweeter," Crosby said. "Unfortunately, at FBS schools, it's not the policy to try to make FCS schools happy.
"I don't know if I have an opinion on whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, but I'd say quite often FBS conferences are going to do what they can to make sure they're building a brand for their member institutions."
While Akron did not respond to a request to comment for this article, Crosby said Kent would be interested in resuming its series with YSU.
"It makes a lot of sense," he said. "Regionally, it's a very attractive game."
MAC schools typically host one FCS program each year — Kent played Liberty on Thursday, while Akron will play James Madison in Week 2 — and while Crosby declined to say how much they pay opposing FCS teams, Strollo said the figure is usually around $200,000.
Since YSU typically generates between $150,000 and $200,000 for a home game, "it's a net wash," Strollo said.
And, Strollo said, the FCS playoff committee isn't all that impressed with wins over MAC schools, particularly the bad ones.
While beating Akron would obviously carry more weight than a win over Dayton or Morehead State (both non-scholarship FCS schools), the Zips were just the 169th-best team in college football in 2012 according to USA Today's Sagarin Ratings. That put them behind all but two MVFC teams.
Still, YSU's fans aren't the only ones who would like to see some MAC teams on the schedule. YSU football coach Eric Wolford, who spent most of his career as an assistant at the FBS level, believes the best way to show his program is as good as the MAC schools is on the scoreboard.
And if he can lighten their wallets in the process, so much the better.
"That's something that may happen," Wolford said. "If the price is right, I'll do it. That's the name of the game.
"A road trip to a MAC school is much easier than a road trip to the Missouri Valley."
The top of the mvfc is better than the top of the mac. Period. The Mixx beat 2 big 12 schools on opening weekend and a 3rd mvfc team nearly beat a Big ten team
I agree with arod^
Miami, Kent, Bowling Green, Ohio are a cut above YSU right now. other than Basketball I don't think they can compete with them.
TaxMe, Kent used a Colin Reardon TD pass late in the 4th quarter to squeak by FCS Liberty on Thursday 17-10. Kent had one great season in 20 years and they look to be back to their mediocre form.
YSU needs to get rid of this fascination with the lowly MAC and recognize the new normal in college football. Top MVFC teams are playing at the level of the Big 12 now, and YSU is not keeping pace. Wolford & Co. need to wake up.
pretty soon there will be no huge paydays from elite college teams as they will no longer schedule lower division schools. and that's why, although it would be great to see ysu play mac schools, they are now chasing the opportunity to play them. however, it seems that when ysu does play a mac school they play bottom tier teams like kent and akron. I would rather see them play Toledo, bowling green, ohio university, or Miami. then we'll see how they stack up. judging on Thursday nights performance I would say not very well at this time. I know wolford likes to let his mouth get ahead of this brain but he better be careful of what he wishes for, if, that is, he's still there when and if it happens.
Why would we ever agree to ANY game with a MAC school that is not reciprocated? That is completely intolerable to me.
BTW: OU and Kent will be basement dwellers this year. Both lost successful HC's and one lost a good DC by the name of Heacock.

A New Dance Craze Sweeping the Nation: The Un-Recusal
Well, it's not quite sweeping the nation, but Chief Justice Roberts has been quietly doing it in the privacy of his own chambers. CJR has "un-recused" himself from Stoneridge, the closely watched case which asks whether shareholders can sue to hold third parties — e.g., investment banks, accountants and law firms — liable for a company's fraud. (Here are items from SCOTUSblog and the BLT blog; click here for Law Blog background on Stoneridge.)
Scheduled for oral argument early next month, Stoneridge was set to be heard before only seven justices — the chief justice and Justice Breyer had recused themselves. Though they're not required to explain why, most surmised they punted because they owned stock in Cisco, the parent company of Scientific-Atlanta, a party in the case. Roberts held from $50,001 to $100,000 in Cisco stock, according to financial disclosures. The un-recusal likely means he dumped the stock.
The outcome of securities-law cases before the Supremes are famously hard to predict. But an interesting question flows from Robert's un-recusal: With an even number of justices hearing the case, what happens if the outcome is 4-4? Then the Eighth Circuit ruling, which rejected third-party liability, would be affirmed without an opinion. If this happened, the Court might then seek another test case on scheme liability, like the Enron case out of the Fifth Circuit, which is apparently being held pending Stoneridge's outcome, says SCOTUSblog.
An un-recusal seems unusual, but is it unseemly? At the trial-court level it could be frowned upon for a judge to un-recuse himself and re-enter the case, NYU's legal ethics guru Stephen Gillers told the Legal Times. "Traditionally, a judge who is assigned to a case is not supposed to rearrange his or her affairs to keep a case."
But at the Supremes, where a recused justice can't be replaced, Gillers thinks the benefit of having a full Court ruling in a case outweighs other concerns. "There may not be as thorough an airing of the issues with only seven justices as there would be with nine."

Results tagged ' Greg Gagne '
Before this past weekend becomes too "old news", I wanted to take a moment to comment on the induction of Greg Gagne into the Minnesota Twins Hall of Fame.
Here's the thing: Gagne was solid defensively, did all the "little things" that the Twins organization values, and is the nicest guy you'll ever chat with. He also played for both Twins world championship, 1987 and 1991.
The trouble is, Gagne was the epitome of an "average" ballplayer. His career batting average was .254 (over 15 seasons), and the highest he ever hit in a single season was .280 (and that was post-Twins with the KC Royals). He hit 111 career homers, stole 109 bases, yet (in one of the most bizarre stats that you'll never see in today's game) was actually caught stealing 96 times. His OPS in any given season never touched .750.
Thus, I can't say that I agree whatsoever with the Twins' inception of Gags into their HOF. I love to see him (and appreciate his contributions) at team reunions and get-togethers, but putting him in cohorts with names like Killebrew, Oliva, Carew, and Puckett really only cheapens that selection group.
However, I have only congratulations for Mr. Gagne now that the deed has been done. I'm sure it is a great thrill for him.
One other quick note: The Twins once again put on a great show last weekend with their 50th Anniversary Celebration. The 50 Greatest Twins ceremony was great, while the old-timers game provided a lot of laughs (Kent Hrbek's divot, primarily) and good memories. Like Gene Washington taking his hacks with his new team (the Rangers) standing on the top step laughing their butts off…
Twins News X 2
First off, Jacque Jones is back (to a minor league deal, of course)! Talk about hedging the bet with Delmon Young.
Greg Gagne was recently inducted into the Twins Hall of Fame. I know he was around for two World Series titles (of course, so were Dan Gladden, Randy Bush, and Allan Anderson, for that matter), but this seems like a pretty big reach to me. Perhaps the lack of a steady SS presence since Gags was a factor, but I'd like to hear from some Twins fans who remember him "in his prime".

Chelan County PUD and the City of Entiat are waiting for all necessary permits to be in hand so that work can proceed on the construction and upgrade to Entiat Park, which was supposed to begin months ago. Completion is now expected by Memorial Day, 2015- more than a year later than originally planned.
The project is part of Chelan CountyPUD's 43-year license agreement to operate Rocky Reach Dam, and will include new features such as a picnic shelter and comfort station as well as overnight camping. A boat launch lane and new floats will be added along with expanded parking for boat trailers. There will also be new trails throughout the park and interpretive signs.
Entiat Mayor, Kieth Vradenburg, says they are just waiting on permits from the Army Corps of Engineers.
The EntiatPark was built in the 1970's and has been in need of a facelift for several years. Chelan CountyPUD included funds designated for that purpose in their relicensing agreement in 2009."CLICK HERE" for Audio
