Have you ever eaten a meal at a restaurant and wondered where the ingredients came from? Was the spinach in your salad shipped across the country in a refrigerated box car for three days or was it picked a few hours ago on a farm two miles away? Which ingredient has the best nutrition value? Which choice supports the local economy? Which action connects neighbors and promotes community pride?
The answers are easy, and the fulfillment of them is rapidly becoming a reality in the Austin TX area. Thanks to a small group of young, green active, tech savvy innovators, residents supporting the success of their local food web are connecting through the web to benefit their local economy, healthy living, and community relationships.
I spoke with Mark Patrick Sullivan, one of growmingle's partners, to get the green details.
Examiner: How did this idea start?
MPS: I met Bryan Heckler and Ryan Grulke through a work project. They were also beginning to develop an app to help local gardeners share home garden extras. In most home gardens, one crop always seems to produce a bumper crop and another lags. By developing an easy and user friendly way to share information and food, neighbors can support each other's basic needs and live healthier lives. It also builds trust and social connections.
Examiner: And growmingle started here?
MPS: In 2011 we set out to create a simple app for Austin home gardeners to trade or donate their excess produce. As we gathered the necessary information for the app, we discovered some interesting feedback that required a change of course by 2013. Most (98%) of the over 6,000 people we polled nationally wished they could buy most, if not all, of their food and goods from a local producer, but they weren't. And why weren't they? It was perceived to be neither convenient nor affordable. Sadly- and we hate to admit this- we shared similar feelings ourselves. At that moment we realized it was a problem we needed to help solve.
Examiner: What else did you find?
MPS: We found farmers, gardeners, non-profits, restaurants, and other local businesses that were all hard at work trying to resolve this issue. We found buying local products to be far more convenient than your average trip to the market and it can be up to 40% less expensive than buying organic products at those same stores. What if we could help everyone see how easy and affordable supporting local producers of all kinds could be? Furthermore, how would this discovery positively impact hyperlocal economies and the producers within those neighborhoods?
Examiner: Where are you in the process now?
MPS: We have lots of documented data. We make sure the information we deliver is trustworthy and accurate. We confirm all restaurant entries on growmingle.com by first verifying with the sourcing farmer. If the farmer verifies the information we have about the restaurant, then we include an entry on growmingle for that verified restaurant. We will soon be sharing more about the verification process that we conduct and helping our users understand the diverse connections between the various members of the Austin local food web. Then we can jump into sharing the information.
Now we are developing the visualization tool- the concept of how all the information will connect, like Yelp for local food. For example, if you want a spinach salad, you will be able to use the app to find which restaurant has spinach salad available today, which farm sourced the spinach, tomatoes, or herbs for the dressing, and when they were delivered to the restaurant. It really can't get fresher than that.
Examiner: How else will this app help the community?
MPS: growmingle will be the clearinghouse for the information. We are solving the disconnect and information fragmentation problems. Most people don't know the relationships from farm to restaurant. We can profile grassroots organizations and businesses. Consumers can view the profiles, see the products made from a farm's produce, and where to find them. Businesses can trace the money trail and work to yield higher output and income.
Examiner: How about home or hobby gardeners?
MPS: Ninety percent (90%) of the people we surveyed prefer local food sources. They believe local food is safer, eco-friendly, and tastes better than big market food offerings. They also believe local sourcing connects the community. The connections empower people to grow their own food. Randy Jewart of Resolution Gardens has helped over 1000 people plant food gardens of their own. They are eating what they grow.
Planting seeds for one's personal food supply is total food transparency. The grassroots local food movement is the antitheses of industrialized supply. The process has been lost as society indulged into the industrialization of food supply and production. From the earliest days of people living together, food has been the local currency. We need to bring this idea back.
Examiner: How soon will the app be functional?
MPS: We anticipate it will be operational in under 6 months. We are excited to have people find out what is going on in the Austin area. People will be able to find new places growing and using local food and facilitate it.
Examiner: What does the future hold?
MPS: Within 9-12 months we plan to expand the idea into other cities. There are diverse and fascinating local food sources in cities all over the country. We want to get it right in Austin before we expand.
Examiner: Is sharing the food information the most important goal of growmingle?
MPS: Of course sharing food information so local people won't be hungry is a goal. Empowering people to seek their own local food sources is also vital, whether they learn to grow it for themselves and share with neighbors, or seek outlets for local food products as consumers. But bringing in the social element is perhaps the major goal. Mingling people to develop strong community is even more important than the grow.

Maybe you did your due diligence, hitting the gym after an indulgent Turkey Day. But even if you didn't, you can start Thanksgiving Reversal by lifting and toning you skin—no sweating required.
Granted the impressive title, "Best Facial Firmer" by the Good Housekeeping Research Institute (it was one of 90 products involved in 3,000 tests and 5,600 before-and-after photos this year), mature skin is guaranteed to see benefits...hence the hefty pricetag.
Peter Thomas Roth FIRMx Growth Factor Extreme Neuropeptide Serum, $148.50; SkinCareRX
Base makeup should be more than a mask. It should actively moisturize, illuminate, nourish and of course, even-out skin tone. This fancy foundation does all the above, AND firms your face. Talk about an overachiever.
NARS Firming Foundation, $46; Splendor Beauty Emporium
Even skinny chicks can't escape dimpling in their derrier. According to many health experts, saying "sayonara" to cellulite is all about massage and detox, which can flush fat deposits from below the skin's surface. Here's an all-herbal treatment that aims to do just that.
CELL-U-RID Tissue Detoxifier, call for pricing; M'lis
And Blissful Bean's Turtle Scrub is worth another mention, because I've personally witnessed its firming effects on my backside. The makers blame it on the caffeine content, so I'd also recommend coffee or tea-based products for your own anti-gravity mission.

College Hockey:ECAC West picks: Jan. 18
I finished 5-1 last week, although I didn't expect Cortland to upset Utica. So far, I'm 34-6-4 (.818) for the season, while ECAC West schools get back to conference action this week.
Jan. 17
Elmira at Nazareth
The Soaring Eagles (7-9 overall, 2-4 ECAC West) scored 17 goals in a two-step sweep of Morrisville last week, and will be looking to continue that trend against the first-year Golden Flyers (5-9-1, 0-5), who are still seeking their inaugural conference win. Elmira 6-5
Jan. 18
No. 12 Manhattanville at Neumann
Both teams are coming off victories, but the host Knights (10-4-2, 2-4) have won six in a row. Home ice should give them a boost against the visiting Valiants (11-4-1, 4-1-1). Neumann 4-3
Jan. 19
No. 8 Utica at No. 3 Hobart
The visiting Pioneers (12-3, 3-2) rebounded from an upset by Cortland to top Western New England, while the host Statesmen (13-1-1, 5-0-1) won both of their games last weekend and have only lost once so far this season. Home ice may be the edge here, too. Hobart 3-2

|Arizona Baseball Game Notes:
Arizona Head Coach Andy Lopez: The Wildcats are coached by Andy Lopez, who is now in his 11th season with a 358-230-1 record at the school. He has guided the Wildcats to postseason competition in seven of the last nine years, including two straight NCAA regionals and highlighted by a 2004 College World Series appearance. The Wildcats have won at least 30 games in five straight years and in nine of Lopez's 10 seasons at the school. Overall, Lopez has more than 1,000 career victories, one national championship and four College World Series appearances. Lopez owns a career record of 1,045-648-7 in 30 years as a head coach, including stints at Cal State Dominguez Hills (1983-88), Pepperdine (1989-94), Florida (1995-2001) and Arizona (2002-present). Lopez led Pepperdine, Florida (twice) and Arizona to College World Series appearances. His total victories are 13th-most among active coaches and he is just one of just 45 individuals to reach 1,000 career victories.
May 28, 1993: The only previous meeting between Arizona and Auburn was on May 28, 1993, in Stillwater, Okla., where the Wildcats and Tigers bet in the opening game of the NCAA Midwest Regional. The Tigers thumped the Wildcats, 9-1, that day, behind a complete game by John Powell who scattered seven hits and struck out 14. Arizona starter Rob Ippolito was roughed up for eight runs on eighth hits in 2.2 innings, and the Wildcats couldn't mount a rally except for a single run in the bottom of the ninth inning to avoid a shutout. For the Wildcats, John Tejcek and Jason Thompson collected five of the team's hits. The Wildcats went on to win three straight games before eventually falling in the regional championship game to host Oklahoma State, 11-10.
Diamond Notes: Three Wildcats - Robert Refsnyder, Joey Rickard and Johnny Field - have reached base in all four games ... Of those, Refsnyder and Field have a base hit in all four games ... Seth Mejias-Brean leads the club with two multi-RBI games and has six on the season despite his .267 batting average ... UA is hitting .255 with runners in scoring position early, but is also limiting opponents to a .208 average with RISP ... Two-out hitting has been mostly non-existent for the Cats, who are hitting .250 in such situations and have been outscored by foes 6-4 in two-out RBI ... Tuesday's game last 3:35 minutes after an opening weekend that saw all three games played under three hours ... UA has yet to use a bench player at bat or defensively this season, playing the same starting nine in every inning ... Opposing pinch-hitters are 1-for-4 against the Cats ... UA totaled 11 base hits combined in their first two games of the year, but have 23 total in their last two tilts ... UA hitters have drawn 20 walks and struck out 20 times, while UA pitchers have registered 39 strikeouts and issued only 10 walks ... The Cats have stolen 13 bases in 16 attempts, with Robert Refsnyder (5-for-5), Joey Rickard (3-for-3) and Brandon Dixon (3-for-3) leading the way without getting caught ... UA has turned four double plays in its four games to open the year.
Heyer Standards: Junior Kurt Heyer enters his third season as the Friday starter for the Wildcats. He is a two-time All-Pac-10 honoree and has been tabbed as preseason third-team All-American by Collegiate Baseball and is on the preseason watch list for the Golden Spikes Award. As a sophomore, Heyer tied for the most starts in the nation (20) and ranked fourth nationally with 134 strikeouts. The 6-foot-2 right-hander tallied double-digit strikeouts six times in 2011, and has done so nine times in career.
An Even 250: Kurt Heyer made his 2012 debut last Friday night and registered seven strikeouts over seven innings against North Dakota State. The seven punch-outs moved his career tally to 250, which is believed to be the second-most in the nation for active pitchers (research courtesy Troy Prendergast at Troy University). Heyer's 250 strikeouts in two-plus seasons are 33 shy of breaking into the school's career top-10 list in the category. The Huntington Beach, Calif., native boasts a 16-9 record and a 2.73 ERA in his career.
Fearsome Foursome: Juniors Alex Mejia, Seth Mejias-Brean, Robert Refsnyder and Joey Rickard have combined to make 476 starts in 485 total games played. They have missed a combined three games in their careers, with Rickard playing in all 122 games and missing only one start. It's been a very consistent a productive group that has helped guide the Wildcats to consecutive NCAA Regional appearances. Together they have accumulated 602 base hits and 334 runs scored, hitting .324 (602-1856) as a group.
Strong Starts: Perhaps the most encouraging results from opening weekend were produced by Arizona's weekend starting pitchers: Kurt Heyer, Konner Wade and James Farris. Heyer turned in seven complete innings with seven strikeouts on Friday, while Konner Wade set a new career high with 13 strikeouts in 7.1 innings on Saturday and James Farris tossed a complete game shutout in his first career start on Sunday. Added together, the starting rotation accumulated a 1.16 ERA in 23.1 innings. The trio registered 26 strikeouts against four walks and scattered 12 hits.
Fantastic Debut: Sophomore RHP James Farris was brilliant in his first career start and guided the Wildcats to a key series-clinching 8-0 victory on Sunday afternoon. After throwing just one-plus innings in two appearances as a freshman, Farris took to the mound as a starter for the first time in his career and hurled a complete game shutout. In nine innings, Farris allowed just five base runners - all on singles. Farris struck out a career-high six opposing batters and did not walk or hit a batter. UA needed every bit of his control through much of the game as the Wildcats mustered just one run in the first five innings, taking a 1-0 lead into the seventh before eventually breaking through for seven more runs.
`K'onner Wade: Sophomore RHP Konner Wade turned in a sensational outing in his first start of the season. Wade shattered his previous career high of seven strikeouts with 13 in the no-decision effort last Saturday. The 13 punch-outs were nearly half of the 28 he tallied in 61.2 innings pitched as a freshmen. Despite not factoring in the decision, Wade gave up just two runs on two hits and a pair of walks. In his career as a starter (9 career starts), Wade has impressive overall numbers. In 51.1 innings, Wade has a 2.45 ERA, including just four earned runs in his last four starts dating back to the end of last season.
Freshmen Arms: The Wildcats have trotted out three freshmen pitchers from the bullpen this season and each has done one thing very well: throw strikes. Lucas Long, Mathew Troupe and Tyler Crawford have combined to throw 8.0 innings without issuing a walk. The three classmates have scattered seven hits and fanned eight hitters, while allowing a combined two runs. It's impressive early work for the youngsters, who could quickly move ahead of some upperclassmen if the early-season trends continue.
Field Days: Sophomore leftfielder Johnny Field is off to a blistering start in 2012. Through four games, he leads the Cats in batting (.700), slugging (1.200) and on-base percentage (.833). He collected two doubles and a triple as part of a four-hit opening day last Friday night against North Dakota State. Since, opposing pitchers have pitched around the clean-up hitter. Field has drawn a team-high seven walks and has been hit by one pitch in his 18 plate appearances so far. He's second on the team with five runs scored.
Long Relief: Facing a 4-1 deficit and in a jam with runners on the corners and just one out, freshman RHP Lucas Long was called in from the bullpen to make his collegiate debut against Utah Valley on Tuesday night. The result was a momentum-changing double-play that ended the threat and kept the Wildcats in the game. Long went on to pitch 5.0 innings in which he surrendered just two runs, scattered four hits, struck out six and, most importantly, walked none. His effort gave the Wildcat hitters a chance to heat up at the plate as UA eventually rallied and prevailed 12-6. It was Long's first career pitching victory.
Switch-Hitting Mejia: Junior shortstop Alex Mejia made his debut as a switch-hitter over opening weekend, but hopefully it is a short-lived development. Mejia sprained his left (non-throwing) wrist a couple weeks before the season opener, and swinging right-handed causes more pain for him than doing so from the left side. So he picked up a bat in batting practice last week and starting swinging left-handed to give his wrist more time to heal. He hit mostly from the left side during opening weekend, but did switch to the right-side for more critical at-bats during the series. He tallied a base hit from the left side in his first game last Friday, and then collected one from each side of the plate in Sunday's game. For the weekend, Mejia went 3-for-9 with a run and an RBI. On Tuesday, Mejia again hit from both sides of the plate. His decision to hit from either side is predicated more on situation of the game rather than righty-lefty matchups.
Turnstiles Turning: The turnstiles were turning all Opening Weekend at Hi Corbett Field. Friday night's opener drew 3,997 fans to mark UA's largest home crowd in four seasons. Over the three games, a total of 8,870 fans passed through the gates. The figure is nearly 25 percent of the 36,412 that attended 33 home games a season ago. On the national scale, UA's opening weekend figures ranked No. 15 for total attendance and No. 17 for per-game attendance (2,956). The Wildcats drew 1,694 to their Tuesday mid-week contest with Utah Valley.
Veteran Presence: Juniors Robert Refsnyder and Joey Rickard and sophomore Johnny Field are off to strong starts in the 2012 campaign. The three outfielders have combined for 22 of the team's 34 hits to date, and have scored 16 of the club's 25 runs. Field leads the club in average (.700), slugging (1.200) and on-base percentage (.833), Refsnyder leads in runs scored (6) and stolen bases (5), and Rickard leads in walks (4) and is second in on-base percentage (.579). Junior third baseman Seth Mejias-Brean, despite a .267 average, leads the club with six RBI.
Table-Setter: Joey Rickard has been the team's leadoff batter and starting centerfielder since he arrived on campus. He's been a speed-guy at the top of the lineup that also can provide some power and run-producing abilities, evidence by 38 extra base hits and 90 RBI in his career. A .331 career hitter, Rickard has shown a bit more patience at the plate early this season, drawing four walks to go with his seven hits. That's currently an increase from the 22 free passes he drew in 60 games as a sophomore. Once on base, Rickard is a threat to steal and has 32 career stolen bases.
Career Benchmarks: Joey Rickard, with five runs scored on the season, ha surpassed 100 career runs scored and currently stands at 101. Rickard has 90 career RBI ... Robert Refsnyder, with five RBI this season, has reached 100 RBI for his career ... Refsnyder, who leads the club with five steals this season, has also pushed his career tally to 20 in that category .... Four Wildcats have over 100 career hits, including Refsnyder (160), Rickard (168), Alex Mejia (146) and Seth Mejias-Brean (128).
Buckle Up: Arizona opens the season with 25 games in a span of 39 days. Of those, 23 contests will be at Hi Corbett Field, with a mid-week trip to No. 6 Rice (March 13-14) the only scheduled road games. The Wildcats, who opened the 2010 season with 25-straight home games, play 35 of their 55 regular season games at home in 2012.
.300 Club: Arizona led the Pac-10 and ranked No. 3 in the nation in 2011 with a .320 team batting average, which extended the program's streak to nine consecutive seasons with an overall batting average of .300 or better. In 2011, UA hit .321 as a team which was the best clip for a Wildcat team since 2005, when a veteran squad turned in a blistering .328 average. The 2003 club - Andy Lopez's second year - also hit .328, while the 2009 club hit .314. Other marks include .306 in 2007, .305 in 2006 and in the 2004 College World Series season, and .301 in 2008.
Tough to Strikeout: One thing the Wildcat hitters hope to continue in 2012 is be a tough team strike out. In the first four games, UA hitters have struck out 20 times (5.0 per game). In 2011, Arizona struck out the fewest times per game of any conference team (4.9 per game). Interestingly, Arizona has seen its total number of strikeouts drop in each of the last four seasons. UA dropped its strikeouts from a high of 413 in 2007 to 405 in 2008, then down to 388 in 2009, 337 in 2010 and ultimately last year's 294 mark. In total, the Wildcats have seen their strikeouts decrease by more than 100 per season over the last several years.
New to the Nine: Freshmen Riley Moore and Trent Gilbert have started each of the four games at catcher and second base, respectively. Offensively they combined for just four, which can be attributed to some early jitters, but three have come in each of the last two contests. Both have clean left-hand hitting strokes that will surely heat up as they gain more and more experience. Both looked more comfortable each day defensively, which is perhaps most important to the club in their early development. Moore is a talented player that turned down the Phillies who drafted in the 21st round last summer. A switch-hitter, Moore is a natural left-handed hitter that will balance out the Wildcats' batting order. Gilbert is a left-handed hitter too that played shortstop in high school. He, too, turned down pro waters, after the marlins drafted him in the 40th round last summer.
Up Next: Arizona will settle into a week of practices before hosting Harvard for a three-game series at Hi Corbett Field beginning next Friday night, March 2, at 6 p.m.

"The Hurt Locker" – Exclusive Interview with Supervising Sound Editor/Re-recording Mixer Paul Ottosson
Some days ago, I asked to Paul Ottoson for an interview on the sound of "The Hurt Locker". That was days before the Oscars night, so he becomes very busy, but he made an effort and sent me the answers to all the questions I did. Many thanks, Paul!
Designing Sound: Tell us… How did you get involved with "The Hurt Locker"?
Paul Ottosson: I got a call from one of the producers and the post supervisor. They had this great script they wanted me to read and the director wanted to meet with me if I liked the script. I loved the script and went to meet with Kathryn and Mark, the writer.
We sat and talked for a bit at her office and got along really well. They liked that I had a military background. Kathryn also mentioned she had not intentions to have any music beyond something over the credit roll. It would be up to me to design the entire thing. I liked the idea even though I knew it would be hard.
DS: How was your relationship with Kathryn Bigelow on the film? How was the importance she gives to the sound of the film?

PO: I loved working with Kathryn. We talked a lot about the overall sound of the film. It had to be very organic and yet have a design to it. We always needed to be there and most of the time in some kind of danger even though we might not see it most of the time. We ended up playing the perspective of every person in the scene a bit differently.

Here at Greatist, we joke about how to deal with snack attacks and sudden hankerings for chocolate. But for millions of kids and adults across the U.S., cravings are hardly a laughing matter. Every day, people throughout the country deal with persistent hunger and live without access to nutritious, affordably priced eats. What's worse, SNAP, our nation's food stamp program, is potentially facing huge budget cuts that would directly impact the millions of families that rely on food stamps. This year Greatist is participating in the Food Bloggers Against Hunger campaign, an initiative to help end hunger across the country. The campaign was inspired by the documentary film "A Place at the Table," which follows three families struggling with food insecurity. We're asking our readers to take part, too, by signing this petition asking Congress to protect federal nutrition programs for children and checking out the documentary in your city or on iTunes or Amazon. [AD] We also want to help dispel the myth that healthy eating always means emptying our wallets. Below is a list of 44 nutritious (and delicious) foods that cost less than $1 per serving, from edamame to pumpkin to cottage cheese. So get cooking, start talking, and help raise awareness about this important issue that affects everyone living in the U.S. today.Forget that 99 cent bag of Fritos or dirty water dog. Stroll smart down the grocery aisle and choose feel-good foods that are great for the body and even better for our budget. Here's our list of 44 tasty, healthy(!) foods, all for under a buck per serving. *Prices may vary depending on location and store; we averaged price based on multiple sources.

Throw U2, Coldplay, Radiohead, and a fresh new take on back-to-basics Rock 'N Roll into a blender, and you've got Civil Twilight ($8).

On their first studio album, "Letters From The Sky," is magical, passionate and haunting - not to be outdone by "Human," "Save Yourself," and "Next To Me."

Essence is a win or fail brand. Some products are very good, while some others are well…bad. But when you think about price it is a pure win-win situation. Some of the Essence lipsticks and lipglosses I have are mostly in "not so good" category because they would disappear from lips in very short period [...]
Holiday Mani, WTF?!
Ranting about holiday manicure and housework. Bloody murder!
Essence Trendsetter, Lime up! & Choose me!
Among the last polishes I bought are these three from Essence. They were recently released as addition to their standard line and I couldnt resist when I saw those pretty green and blue shades.

Mizu: Japanese Inspired Waterscapes, is an alternative digital photography series that was inspired by the iconic Japanese woodblock prints known as ukiyo-e. Ukiyo-e, which translates to "the floating world", was a 19th century woodblock print style that depicted contemporary life in Edo Japan. Ukiyo-e artist Katsushika Hokusai's landscape prints have been a major source of inspiration for this series.
In Mizu: Japanese Inspired Waterscapes, I wanted to incorporate the ukiyo-e style into present-day rural and urban Florida waterscapes. I focused on the concept of "the floating world" within my waterscapes. Intentionally, I would disrupt photographic perspective to create a flat style within my images. Once the photograph has been taken, I digitally alter the photograph by drawing on top of the image in a process known as rotoscoping. By drawing on top of a photograph, I am able to merge ukiyo-e style into a photograph.
Born in Richmond, Virginia, Meredith Ramey was raised in Orange Park, Florida. Currently, she is pursuing her BFA in Photography and BA in Art History from the University of North Florida in Jacksonville. Ramey's photography ranges from documentary to mixed media approaches.

Does My Dog Have Impetigo?
How healthy is your animal? Have you noticed him scratching, licking or biting himself? Does he also shed a lot? Many pet owners think this is perfectly normal. Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. Veterinarians say skin problems are the number one health problem they see in their patients. We should pay close attention to all skin and hair problems, before we dismiss them as merely "normal" scratching.
It's important to do this because we can tell what a canines's overall health is by the condition of his skin and hair. We can see his "insides" by looking at his "outside". Fortunately for us, skin and hair problems are very obvious, easy to see and usually easy to treat.
Examine his belly and groin area to see if there are any red bumps, pimples or crusty scabs there. If there are, it could be impetigo. That's right, the same thing human babies get! Don't worry too much, though. It's very common in puppies, although adults can get it, too. It can also cause excessive shedding, even hair loss. Impetigo is one of several problems categorized as superficial pyoderma. It's a bacterial infection of the skin and parts of the hair follicle near the surface. Normal bacteria are always there. But when the skin and hair follicle are weakened and unhealthy, the bacteria enter the pore. This causes a white pimple to form, which then becomes filled with fluid. That's the first stage of the infection. Next, pus accumulates, and finally the pimples rupture and leave thin, itchy brown crusts. Scratching or biting spreads the bacteria. During this stage, others can get infected, so it's wise to keep Fido isolated. Also, you can keep him from licking or biting this area by using a special collar.
Problems like these need a two-pronged approach. First, ask yourself "Why does my dog have this problem? What's the root cause?". Remember, problems on the outside are a symptom of something wrong inside. We can consider a couple different factors that affect our companion's overall health. One thing to look at is his DIET. Most experts agree that moist food is best. Dry food is the worst diet for maintaining health. For one thing, it doesn't provide enough moisture to keep the skin healthy. Also, it's been found that most pups (about 90%) have a zinc deficiency. Zinc is essential for healthy skin. So fortify your friend from the inside out by providing a good diet. Another internal factor may be PARASITES. Parasites (worms and others) are most attracted to breeds with poor overall health and can further debilitate him.
But let's get back to the surface problem: What can we do to relieve his discomfort immediately? Topical treatments can kill the bacteria and speed up the healing process. It's important to keep the area with the rash clean. You can use hydrogen peroxide or an antibiotic ointment. This will help it to heal faster.
Best Dog Acne Products
In a puppy, this will usually clear up in a few days. If he is older, or the infection has gone beyond the first stage, then bathe him with a benzoyl peroxide shampoo twice every day. Do this for 2 – 3 weeks. Make certain the shampoo doesn't get into his ears, eyes, nose or mouth. And keep that no-bite collar on so he doesn't spread the infection.
You can take three steps that will fortify him against this bacterial invasion happening again. Many veterinarians and satisfied dog owners recommend a group of products called ShedPlex, because that's exactly what these products will help to do.
1) Bathe them regularly with ShedPlex Shampoo. This is a very soothing wash that will get rid of any skin irritation, build up and strengthen hair follicles and roots and eliminate bacteria growth!
2) After washing, use ShedPlex Conditioner. It's a leave-in spray conditioner that actually treats and heals your pooch's skin in between baths.
3) ShedPlex Enzymes and Nutrients can easily be sprinkled on your animal's food. It provides protein and nutrients that they need to repair damaged hair and oil glands. This product has a zinc complex in it to build strong healthy fur that can ward off future problems. It also contains minerals that allow him to fully absorb the nutrients in his food. Lack of digestive enzymes can cause hair loss and excessive shedding.
This is the best defense you can give your buddy; so make him happy and make yourself content with these products. They'll even help prevent shedding!

Oh sweetie I know you won't hurt me, I love you. Do as you will with me.
It was small with curly hair that lightly kissed her sweet pussy lips. I met Jody my third year in college. From the first time we laid eyes on each other we knew that we would be life long friends. While we were in school we took a small one bedroom apartment off campus. My life with Jody allowed me to explore a side of my personally that I always kept hidden away. Growing up in a traditional African- American home where the thought of fucking someone outside the compounds' of marriage was never to be thought of, but taking a same-sex lover would be an offence that would be beyond unforgivable. However, life with Jody gave me the kind of freedom that I had always wanted, but was somehow always too scared to go after.
View this Episode
My freedom story begin the night that Jody and I became lovers. After three months of living together, and dancing around the fact that we were craving each other pussies, Jody and I decided that it was time to give our bodies the release that we both needed. It started that morning when I woke from only a few hours of sleep. The night had been filled with dreams of Jody and mines naked bodies coming together, that was not unusual. I would often dreamed of her lovely six foot one inch honey brown skin, as we would come together in our first buck wild pussy party. However, when I woke I was comforted at the sight of my sweet roommate as she pleasured herself in full view. One of Jody's greatest joy in life is masturbation, she has always thought of is as a form of art. She said that no man has ever been able to get her off, or hit her G spot the way she could. I sat up in bed in order to get a better view of Jody's magnificent performance. Her night gown had been discarded and she was lying on her back and the humming of her vibrator send her close to the edge, as I saw it disappear inside her honey brown bush. Jody took hold of one of her tits, rubbing and playing with herself, her body seem to take on a force of its own. She begin to pull and yank on her tits, as her pussy begin to feel the pure pleasure of the vibrator that brought her pussy alive. As I watched I realized that my own pussy was in much need of attention. Slipping my hand between my legs, while letting my other hand roam my already naked body I could feel the wetness of my pussy as I felt my finger slip between my pussy lips. My nipples was hard and standing as I lovely caressed my own breast. I was able to bring myself close to the edge as I pounded my own pussy. It felt so good as I got lost in the sensation of bring myself to a place of erotic bliss. As I came down from the ecstasy that I had created for myself, I looked over at Jody as she looked on, I could tell that my action was giving her a great deal of pleasure. As I have stated before due to my background and upbringing the thought of taking a female lover went way beyond the pail, still my growing feelings for Jody was beginning to weigh on me. Once reality set back in Jody and I tried to ignore the loud silence that was between us, despite the fact that we both knew what the other was thinking. Still the silence lust that Jody and I had for one another would not stay hidden for very long. After a long and taxing day at work I came home bone tired. Like most days I made it home before Jody. I decided that since I had the apartment to myself that I would relaxes by pouring a glass of wine and running myself a hot relaxing bath. The one good thing about that little apartment is that it had a great big bathtub. It was one of these old sank in tub, and it was an easy fit for two. I had lit a few candles and took my glass of wine into the tub. An old Kenny G CD was playing in the boom box that we kept in the bathroom. Sitting in the tub uninhibited by my own hang ups I allowed myself the freedom of dreaming of Jody and I making love. My eyes closed I could almost feel Jody's soft tender hands caressing my tits, and the feel of her tongue as it swirls around my rock hard nipples. I could feel her hand cascading down my tummy, as she kissed the back of my neck. I could feel her tight body as she clamed into the tub with me, and that is what snapped me out on my day dream, and realized that this was no dream. Nether of us spoke as we looked into each other eyes. Jody's whiskey brown eyes always left me speechless. As Jody settled beside me she traced my lips lightly with her finger tips, opening my mouth I slowly began to suck her lovely long fingers. I pulled her in as our full lips met for the first time. Passionate and sensual our tongues slipped in and out of each others mouths, I couldn't get enough of her full lips on mines. We just gave in to the longing we had had for each other, our bodies coming together under the warm water, our pussies touching for the first time took us both to the edge. Getting out of the tub, Jody reached out for my hand. In that moment nothing else matter not the past, nor what I was taught that a good girl should be. In that moment the only thing that mattered was my love for this beautiful woman, and showing her in every way just how much she mend to me Placing my hand in hers Jody helped out of the tub. With the warm glow of candle light and smooth jazz, Jody led me to her bed. Our bodies still wet we start to explore every inch of each other. Jody starts with my shoulder, cascading kisses down my body, I slowly drank in the fragrance of her perfume, as my hands got tangled in her soft brown curls. Jody soon found the opening to my paradise, I gladly spread my legs for her, and she wasted no time in going for what she wanted. Lord I love the feel of this woman touch as she spreads my pussy lips open. Immediately she fines my clit with her tongue, and its like my whole body was on fire. My hips began to buck as her tongue licks both sides of my pussy walls. My body seem to melt into this wonderful feeling of ecstasy. I was so carried away that I never saw Jody retrieve her strip on from the night stand. I was more then caught off guard when I felt her push inside me, I opened my eyes and saw Jody as she rammed her body forward, as my pussy lips opened and she entered me. "Don't be scare baby, I'm not going to hurt you, I just want to love you." she said as she whipped a tear from my face. I knew Jody wouldn't hurt me, I knew that after all the months that we had spend denying what we felt, that it was so clear that we were in love. "Oh sweetie I know you won't hurt me, I love you. Do as you will with me." In that moment I gave myself over to my sweet Jody. With my legs spread Jody fully entered me. I could feel her hit the back of my pussy with such force that I was sure I saw stars and fireworks all go off at the same time. Jody was a fabulous lover, she took her time to make sure that she was giving me all that I wanted and needed. I was twenty-one at the time, and had only been with one other person a guy that I knew from the church that I had attended when I lived at home. Tony and I went out once and we end up in a hotel room, it was my first time. Looking back Tony was a nice enough guy, but I think we both knew that the only thing he wanted from me that night was a free piece of pussy. The feelings I shared with Jody that night could never be compared to anything that I could have had with Tony. Jody not only made love to my body, but she pulled my lonely soul form a cold dark place. She made me feel like a woman, her woman. Jody had not only giving me what I wanted, but she had giving the thing that I had yarned for, the freedom to be me. It was now my turn to give my beautiful Jody the same kind of pleasure that she had giving me. Lying of her back I had full access to my lover. Our lips met again, both enjoying the feeling of our full lips as we became one. I smothered her body with kisses, I allowed my hand to roam the silkiness of her body. With every touch my sweet Jody seem to come alive. I wanted nothing more then to taste ever sweet inch of her, to drank in the nectar of her love. Opening herself to me, my heart nearly stopped at the sight of her pretty pussy. I couldn't wait to devour her sweetness, spreading her lips wide my mouth captured the sweetest piece of pussy that God ever made. There was no holding back, her juice had the taste of a well aged wine, and the aroma was like a fresh bouquet of flowers on a spring day. Jody said that I nearly drove her crazy when I was playing with her clit. But I could not help myself, it was almost as it the sweet little thing was hiding from me, and I just had to go fine it. Jody's screams of erotic pleasure told me I was on the right track, pulling out my own little bad boy, I turn him up to the maximum speed. I drove Big Willie deep inside of her love hole. Jody never saw it coming, as I drove deep into her I captured one of her tasty nipples in my mouth. Sucking on her nipples while slamming "Big Willie" deeper and deeper took my Jody the a new place of pleasure. Our bodies burned with love and lust that night. The liberation of my pussy brought me to a place of wholeness. Jody and I had six wonderful years together, years that I will never regret.
