Home > Press > Adding nanotubes makes ordinary materials absorb vibration
New composites could remove buzz from speakers, sting from golf clubs
A new study suggests that integrating nanotubes into traditional materials dramatically improves their ability to reduce vibration, especially at high temperatures. The findings could pave the way for a new class of materials with a multitude of applications, from high-performance parts for spacecraft and automobile engines, to golf clubs that don't sting and stereo speakers that don't buzz.
The materials, developed by researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, are described in the Feb. 8 issue of the journal Nano Letters.

Nanocomposites don't suffer from the same weight and volume penalties as current polymeric damping materials, but the new findings point to another important advantage, according to Nikhil Koratkar, associate professor of mechanical, aerospace, and nuclear engineering at Rensselaer and lead author of the paper. "Traditional damping polymers perform poorly at elevated temperatures," he says. "Our new materials provide excellent damping at high temperatures, suggesting that these nanocomposites show great potential for a variety of applications in aircraft, spacecraft, satellites, automobiles, and even sensors for missile systems — basically any structure that is exposed to vibration."
Though much of the research focus has been on improving the strength and stiffness of nanomaterials, Koratkar and his coworkers have directed their attention to another important property: damping, or the ability of a material to dissipate energy. They have found that dispersing nanotubes throughout traditional materials creates new composites with vastly improved damping capabilities. And they have also shown for the first time that these damping properties are enhanced as the temperature increases.
Carbon nanotubes are made from graphite-like carbon, where the atoms are arranged like a rolled-up tube of chicken wire. They have enticed researchers since their discovery in 1991, offering an impressive combination of high strength and low weight, but few commercial applications have resulted in the intervening years, according to Koratkar.
The new materials could be extremely useful for any kind of space application, because temperatures swing wildly from very hot in the day to very cold at night, Koratkar notes. And he expects to use them in the diaphragms of loud speakers to help improve sound quality by reducing the buzz associated with high bass levels.
The sporting goods market is also an especially promising outlet, particularly for golf clubs and tennis racquets. "Manufacturers want tennis racquets and golf club shafts to be light and stiff, but without the annoying sting that comes from a bad shot," Koratkar says.
Pulickel Ajayan, the Henry Burlage Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at Rensselaer and a world-renowned expert in fabricating nanotube materials, collaborated with Koratkar on this project, and two other Rensselaer researchers were involved with the research: Jonghwan Suhr, a post-doctoral researcher in mechanical, aerospace, and nuclear engineering; and Wei Zhang, a graduate student in aeronautical engineering.
In 2004, Koratkar received a National Science Foundation Faculty Early Career Development Award to fund the development of these new materials. Additional funding for this project was provided by the U.S. Army Research Office.
Nanotechnology at Rensselaer:
In September 2001, the National Science Foundation selected Rensselaer as one of the six original sites for a new Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center (NSEC). As part of the U.S. National Nanotechnology Initiative, the program is housed within the Rensselaer Nanotechnology Center and forms a partnership between Rensselaer, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and Los Alamos National Laboratory. The mission of Rensselaer's Center for Directed Assembly of Nanostructures is to integrate research, education, and technology dissemination, and to serve as a national resource for fundamental knowledge in directed assembly of nanostructures. The five other original NSECs are located at Harvard University, Columbia University, Cornell University, Northwestern University, and Rice University.

Am still new to the DSLR world. Recently bought the EF-S 60mm f2.8 for portrait work and an occasional macro. Although I haven't used it much, it seems to be an outstanding lens. Also have the EF 50mm f1.8 which, for the price, is an excellent value.

The Strokes announce New Album
will suck.
No, no it will not.
Cannot wait to be completely apathetic to another Strokes release
Will they release four 2.5 albums in a row?
Their latest single sounds like Take On Me. No kidding.
Their latest single sounds like Take On Me. No kidding. Edit: double posts
Looking forward to it. Yes I'm biased
This is actually going to be the shortest amount of time between albums in their career. Although, that's probably not too hard to do when your "tour" to support the last album just involved getting paid to pop up at a festival every few weeks over the course of a summer.
eh never got into this band much pretty boring
Also I'm a huge Strokes fan and am really excited for this. I'm afraid my last post may have seemed a bit negative.
Hopefully Julian is writing all the songs again.
They have good songs. But they are not special at all.
I'll still listen to it, but I hope there's more rock-driven songs this time. Even though, I doubt it.
The single is so... confusing.
Yeah this will be meh
One Way Trigger is too damn good.
I was listening Juicebox, that's a really good song of Julian and company.
I'll give it a listen but I wasn't too keen on Angles.
rolling stone will love it
I've never really understood the appeal to these guys...I was more of an Arctic Monkeys fanboy though.
Is This It was a modern classic pop album. I'm one of the few people who like One Way Trigger it seems, I don't think it's going to be representative of the record though.
>Will they release four 2.5 albums in a row?
youre an idiot
first two albums are classic
we WILL SEE HOW THIS TURNS OUT
Here is hoping for something similar to First Impressions of Earth
worst band
I was more of an Arctic Monkeys fanboy though.
Psshh, I'm a fanboy of both...
Best news!

Long Description
CLAYTON LAKE STATE PARK is a RV Park in or near the town of Clayton. It is a somewhat small park with a claimed 37 pads to park your coach. This park has pull thru slots to make setting up a snap. Your very long camper should have no trouble in the longer slots this park has. No need for a generator since the park has electric. There is NO 50 amp service at the park. Another of the basics – water hookups – is provided. You will want to ensure an empty gray and black tank as sewer connections are not provided here. The park has a more authentic camping experience than some RV parks due to the lack of 802.11 Wireless Internet. Really this shouldn't be an issue for campers, honestly, but there is not a Cable TV hookup. Animals are welcome here. Not sure this is a good thing for a high class RV experience, but tent camping is allowed. A neat thing about this park is that it does have some waterfront attached to it. If you ever get near Clayton make sure you stop on by the CLAYTON LAKE STATE PARK.

Obviously it's unconstitutional, and will not fly. This is just someone's attempt to placate their ultraconservative constituency. It makes them look good if they are seemingly making an effort, even when they know it won't work. It's the thought that counts, right?

Haven't any of these rubes read the Constitution or abortion law? La can't feed,, teach, or house its citizens, but they piss money away on nonsense like this. Appalling.
#6 Sep 3, 2011
Appalling only to an imbecile like you. Louisiana happens to be primarily ProLife, and Christian, mostly Catholic. Thank the Good Lord for these new measures. They are not "pissing away money on nonsense". They are saving the lives of the unborn. You're too stupid to grasp the concept.

No, thick. You are too stupid to understand the law, or that a measure like this will put women's lives at risk. Oh, wait, they're born, so you don't care. Got it.

Do you people just push a number for the stock answers you post? Like I said, you're an imbecile who knows less than nothing about abortion. This answer from you is old, tired and worn out. All of you choicers use it every day, day after day. Stupid breeds stupid when it comes to choicers. Got it.

Scratch a fundagelical, find a hater every time. Thanks for proving it once again. Does your god know how you treat people? It does now. Here's your ScoobySnack, chew toy. Run along, now. You've served your purpose here.
#10 Sep 3, 2011
Well, well, got to you didn't I? From your avatar, I think it's you who needs the chew toy. You my dear are the hater, you like to kill the unborn. My God knows all, you know nothing, so don't even go there. As for running along, no, I'll post wherever and whenever I choose. You've definitely outlived your purpose here. Have a great evening!

That's your response to a woman that won't conform to your "breed or die" philosophy? She's got to be a man-hater?
Well, now we know where YOUR mind is, don't we? No gentlemen in there, and certainly no lady.
You are a pig. I can see by your attitude that wallowing in mud is all you can achieve. The way you view my gender speaks volumes.

Aw, gee, goofy, was that "worthless" comment supposed to hurt? I hate to disappoint you (not really), but it doesn't. Neither do any of your other LAME insults.

My comments are never worthless, only to idiot choicers like yourself. Who was that comment supposed to "hurt"? Nobody, just stating a fact that another idiot was heard from. It was her/his post that was "worthless". Look in the mirror and you'll see a "lame" insult.

Born or unborn, no difference. Nobody's life has to be at risk.
It is only a matter of time for people to come back to their senses and stop supporting such an evil as abortion. Science will be your downfall.

No, it won't. The fetus is incapable of survival until its lungs are developed (more of that 'science' stuff). Science says nothing about personhood or rights or citizenship.
Deflect on, ignorant. You get more amusing with every post. Like, totally.
#19 Sep 4, 2011
As I keep saying, you are totally oh wait, you are "like, totally" ignorant. Who is talking about the fetus being capable of surviving? Are we even on the same subject as you are? WTH does what you just posted have to do with what was being discussed? Seriously, you are odd.

Ask a grownup to like, totally explain it to you, or whatever. Do you seriously know nothing about fetal development, personhood, rights, citizenship, or, like, the law?
Clue: No law can force one person to provide medical sustenance to another. In the case of the fetus, that means no law can force a citizen (i.e. a pregnant woman) to gestate against her will.
Try to keep up.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Ladies Night Downtown:Posted Apr 7, 2016
Pros: location and staff If you are planning a night or a weekend, that full kitchen is the best!
Cons: parking is a fortune....too much. Once construction is done all the challenges will go away.
Location: The Mag Mile and all the other wonderful Chicago attractions are walking distance!
They neglected to mention the hotel was under construction. The breakfast was not the options we anticipated, but a lovely bag hung on your door: apple, oj, oatmeal, blueberry muffin and breakfast sandwich (with the microwave not a problem) but with Celiac, a problem. Nothing gluten free about that bag other than the apple and oj. Elevators are slow and only one open. But not too bad. Room was lovely, clean and had everything you could need and more! The staff was wonderful: needed extra pillows and sheets for hid a bed...they were there in a minute with a smile. I asked about ice, and that same gentlemen ran down and got us ice too! All with a smile.

Did not meet Residence Inn StandardsPosted Apr 7, 2016 on Orbitz
Pros: Cleanliness. Good for families. Coffee downstairs everyday.
Cons: Discount on parking for hotel guests.
Location: Near the Drake Hotel. Conveniently located off of Lake Shore Drive. Observation 360 is located within walking distance. We ate at The Local next door.
My husband frequently stays at Residence Inn's during his travels. We chose our week-long stay at this hotel because of the standards that go along with the name, and this hotel did not represent Residence Inn well. The breakfast room was under-construction so we received a daily fast-food style breakfast that was left in a bag on our door each morning. This was incredibly disappointing not only because it lacked variety, but also freshness. The elevator was also under construction and the service elevator was not reliable (multiple guests got stuck in it during our stay). The room was a suite, but again it was disappointing because the bathroom was in the main living room, not attached to the bedroom and we were traveling with our 8-month old baby so this made it inconvenient to use the bathroom after she went to bed.

Hotel location - great. Hotel service - not.Posted Mar 28, 2016 on Hotels
The hotel was nice and a great location downtown. Overnight parking was absurdly expensive!! I did not see that in the fine print when booking the hotel. You have to valet park. I called 5 minutes before I checked out to have them pull my car around. When I got downstairs, the valet was missing for 20 mins and no one could pull my car around. I was late to my meeting. Also, breakfast was included with my room but the kitchen was under renovation (again not in the fine print) and they asked me if I wanted a to-go breakfast delivered to my room in the AM. I opted in and they never brought it to me.

Good locationPosted Mar 22, 2016
Pros: Great location.
Cons: Get back to a buffet breakfast with some choice. The bagged breakfast was abysmal.
Location: Close to Magnificent Mile. We walked to museums and the Art Institute. About 30-35 minutes walk to the loop.
The hotel is in an excellent location. It is undergoing renovations and for example, at times there was only one elevator. Breakfast which was delivered in a bag was terrible; not at all what one would expect from this chain and I will look elsewhere is this is going to be the fare henceforth.

Home > Press > Nanogate and Swiss firm Kapyfract initiate international partnership for high-quality tunnel coating
New tunnel coating system added to NanoGuard® product range. The product can be used on a variety of surfaces - its hydrophobic and stain protection properties make cleaning easier and keep road tunnels brighter. First joint coating project with Kapyfract successfully completed in November 2010 for the town of Tuttlingen. Order volume expected to reach six figures (in euros) in 2011. Cooperation confirms Nanogate's good positioning and ist transformation to an integrated nanotechnology systems provider.
Nanogate AG (ISIN DE000A0JKHC9), a leading international nanotechnology systems provider, has initiated a strategic partnership with Kapyfract AG, a major player in Europe's tunnel fireproofing industry. The objective of the partnership is to internationally market and implement innovative coating solutions for traffic tunnels based on Nanogate-Technologie®. Together, the two companies will tap the significant market potential available European-wide and offer customers a one-stop shop for premium-quality products and services for coating concrete. In recent months, with this in mind, Nanogate has considerably ramped up its product expertise and given Kapyfract access to this know-how. The first joint systems are now available by the name of KapyCoat E+.
The first successful reference project for the new systems was completed in November 2010. Together, the subsidiary Nanogate Industrial Solutions GmbH and Kapyfract coated an area exceeding 2,000 sqm in Kreuzstraßentunnel near Tuttlingen. The road tunnel is in the final phase of construction. One reason for coating the tunnel was to fulfil legal standards in traffic tunnel construction, which demand that a tunnel is bright with good visibility up to a height of three metres. Secondly, the coating was applied to prove that using the new material system offered by Nanogate and Kapyfract simplifies cleaning and reduces the associated maintenance costs: "The new system from our NanoGuard® range prevents dirt from forming a chemical bond with the surface. Chemicals are no longer needed for cleaning, minimising both disposal costs and the impact on the environment," says Andreas Weis, Head of Division at Nanogate Industrial Solutions, explaining the advantages of this innovative surface for widespread use in tunnels. The surface also absorbs far less water, which significantly reduces frost damage from freezing water. Using the coating slashes the cost of cleaning and maintaining the tunnel. This added value is good news for road users too: in the future, there will be far fewer tunnel closures for maintenance and cleaning work and therefore not as many hold-ups. At the same time, the reduction in a build-up of dirt on the surface enhances traffic safety in the tunnel because the reflective area stays intact longer and visibility remains stable.
Ralf Zastrau, CEO of Nanogate AG, commented: "For Nanogate, the tunnel coating cooperation with Kapyfract is an important step towards playing a major role in this sector in the future, accompanied by a strong partner. The cooperation is yet further proof that intelligent products can help to protect the environment and make sustainable use of resources. After our first few commissions to coat structures, for example a tunnel system in Stockholm, we are now connecting to a bigger market with our universally applicable products."
Continued expansion of specialist knowledge pays off
As an integrated nanotechnology systems provider, Nanogate uniquely combines many years of material and tool experience with comprehensive process and production knowledge. In addition, the company has in recent years rounded out its technology portfolio by means of an innovation offensive. By acquiring a majority stake in GfO Gesellschaft für Oberflächentechnik GmbH in August 2010, Nanogate established itself as a specialist for high-performance surfaces. "We can now offer our customers an all-inclusive package," continues Zastrau. As a nanotechnology systems provider, Nanogate controls all the steps in the value chain, which extends from purchasing raw materials and formulating the material systems, right through to coating the surfaces in mass production. As a full-service provider, Nanogate can shorten the development phase and time-to-market, thereby gaining greater potential for international growth. Nanogate and GfO presented their first joint product at the end of October. "This product is just the first in a range of new applications and solutions. The innovation offensive and the widening of our expertise will pay off in 2011," says Nanogate's CEO.

The shares in Nanogate AG (the "Shares") may not be offered or sold in the United States or to or for the account or benefit of "U.S. persons" (as such term is defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act")).

Product Description
Live from the Arena di Verona, 2011
Violetta Valéry Ermonela Jaho
Alfredo Germont Francesco Demuro
Giorgio Germont Vladimir Stoyanov
Orchestra, Chorus and Ballet of the Arena di Verona
Conductor Julian Kovatchev
Stage Director Hugo de Ana
La Traviata is not only one of Giuseppe Verdi's best known works but ranks among the most popular operas of all times. Based on the novel and play La Dame aux camélias by Alexander Dumas (fils), the tragic story of the terminally ill courtesan Violetta who falls in love with the young gentleman Alfredo Germont has moved audiences to tears for more than 150 years.
This lavish new production of Verdi's masterpiece is staged by Argentine director Hugo de Ana, a regular guest at the world's most prestigious opera houses and acclaimed for his spectacular scenery sets and his special use of light. The extra-large stage of the Arena di Verona is his ideal challenge. Ermonela Jaho, an intense and dramatic Violetta, and Francesco Demuro, an elegant Alfredo, are both making their Arena debut. Vladimir Stoyanov, giving a commanding yet refined Germont, completes the exquisite trio of protagonists under the baton of acclaimed conductor Julian Kovatchev.

Most Helpful Customer Reviews on Amazon.com (beta)
The stage is set on the Arena steps with basically no backdrop. It's made up of mostly picture frames and large posters on cloth scattered around. It's clear right away that no body mics are used, and the voices are distant, often swamped by the orchestra. Since there's no ceiling, back wall or sides, the voices get little reinforcement, but they are not big voices to start with. Maybe there is some audio reinforcement for the audience, but it doesn't seem to be fed into the recording equipment.
Violetta and Alfredo are in formal wear, but Alfredo's make-up makes him look like a Corpse - a greyish foundation with cheek rouge and red lipstick. That may work for an audience 200 feet away with stadium lighting, but certainly not for close-up video.
I came to the conclusion fairly early that this had to be a student production - Violetta and Alfredo knew their music but noy their characters. They sang past each other and the dancers that were there for the party hardly interacted and then left. I suspect that there were a number of cuts taken but I really don't want to go back and go over this trainwreck. So much of the human interaction that goes on in act one just sailed past. Near the end of the act we notice Violetta sitting on one of these oversize picture frames with a web belt on and some nylon handholds and see the frame slowly rising as the lights go out. What a waste of affect and time!
Act two begins with oversized beach furniture and a large floral picture on cloth that is somewhat lifted up at the back. No country house, the picture is the garden I guess... Germont Pere arrives, Vladimir Stoyanov made up as a Ghoul - white pancake with dark brown age lines, like Ghiaurov made up as Mefistofeles on the old Decca album. He has a good baritone voice, but without much subtlety or character, like the principles. Alfredo has his shirt open, so we see his tanned neck below the greyish foundation they have on him. Oy.
The conductor, Julian Kovatchev, races thru the whole casino scene, rolling right thru some of th most significant moments in the opera, not stopping for "Va, va...". I was amazed! The scene with the Gypsies and Matadors was much shortened, choreography was poor, footwork was random, and the matadors couldn't manage to twirl their capes together.
The third Act was like trains passing in the night. But lest I forget, for the third Act Violetta, who was rather plainly made up so far, was now made up to look like a Zombie. Very sallow skin tone, sunken cheeks, showing her teeth like a mummy. You could hardly make this stuff up, it's so ridiculous!
We have a corpse, a ghoul and a zombie. Did anybody even WATCH this before it was issued?
And if Arthaus has the resources available to publish this, why are we unable to get a video of Antonacci, Meli and Vassallo doing Traviata? And while we're at it, how about some Ewa Podles? Those are artists that NEED to be recorded.
On the bright side, I watched the 2007 Traviata from La Scala with Ghiorghiu, Vargas and Frontali on blu-ray, and it is superb! Ghiorghiu and Vargas are so expressive, so is Frontali. How refreshing! Everything that's missing at Verona is here. And, it's been on special (complete, but with promo for other titles) for less than $10, but not forever. Grab it if you find it.
There's also a lesser-known Traviata I wanted to mention. It's part of the Tutto Verdi set on C major, extremely creatively done with
great visual images and singing. I'll review it separately.

Despite being on DFA, despite having a logo that looks like some kind of pseudo-Eg-Banger rip-off, and despite having a name that makes them sound like a bedroom house music project from Sweden, Free Energy is, in fact, heartbreakingly melodic, toe-tapping, Southern-and-glam-inflected rock for stoners in fact and theory. Fans of Big Star, T-Rex, and getting drunk in rusted-out pickup trucks should get very excited.

It's more about how artists in America wind up getting the boot of government and corporate America on their neck for bucking the powers that be with anything fresh and new. Also a not so subtle subtext of racism and how the DJs fought it in the music they played and the dances and concerts they held for teenage kids from the 50s and early 60s. I see the parallel between hip hop artists today and the early rock and roll DJs.
Not as big a topic as "Inside Job" or "Waiting for Superman" but it has lots of appeal, with a different look than most docus. Editing rocks. Style reminds me of the Kid stays In Picture docu about Robert Evans, editing and design that's lots of movement and out of the ordinary.
The basic story:
Birth of AM Radio: The first part shows how the white AM station owners saw how much young people liked rhythm and blues sung by African American artists played by African American disk jockeys and imitated them with white Deejays. These personalities talked to kids and played them songs that drove their parents crazy.
Personality DJs Across America: A tour of America's popular DJs in about 1960. Here's the kind of story told; a New York DJ named Cuz Brucie is sso tight with his teenage listeners, when a kid runs away from home, the DJ right on the air negotiates a way back with the kid and his parents.Read more ›
At age 60 I am a little too young to remember the earliest days of rock & roll radio. Actually, as the legendary Memphis DJ and recording artist Rufus Thomas points out in the film the term "rock & roll" is actually a misnomer. What all those teenagers were turning on to in the early and mid 1950's was actually "rhythm & blues" which would eventually morph into what we now call rock & roll. I envy them because it must have been an incredibly exciting time. One of the strengths of "Airplay" is that it presents interviews with a number of the most influential deejays of the period. Among the featured deejays are Jerry Blavat from Philadelphia, Dick Biondi from Chicago, "Cousin Brucie" Morrow from New York City and the legendary Martha Jean "The Queen" Steinberg who at the time was an enormously influential African-American broadcaster at WDIA in Memphis. "Airplay" also features several rare clips of the legendary Alan Freed as well as an extensive interview with his son Lance. In those days disc jockeys really mattered and it seems that every teen had their favorite.Read more ›
In the early 1960s - when FM stations were only simulcasting AM radio programs - I was a "gofer" for a local radio station in Central New Jersey. I helped run "record hops" (remember them?) and stage shows featuring the big rock and roll stars of the day. I was also a big fan of Philly (PA) radio (when there was a "Top 100", not just "Top 40" and the deejays were "personalities". These were my prime radio listening years and, if they were yours too, this is a "must see" documentary. Directors Chris Fox Gilson and Carolyn Travis really did a great job in finding some of the true legebnds of AM Radio's heyday (and a few from the later FM years) to interview.
Jerry Blavat (Philly), Dan Ingram (NY), Dick Biondi (Chicago) and Martha Dean (Detroit) are here as is "Cousin Bruce" Morrow, who was on WABC-AM in the 1960s and is still doing radio (on Sirrius XM) today. (BTW, Blavat - the "Geator With The Heater"- still does this thing on WXPN in Philly on Saturday nights)
DJ's who had other later careers - Rufus Thomas (major soul hit artist) and Jay Thomas (TV actor) - are captured here. Yes, they use a lot of footage from the various Alan Freed movies from the late 1950s, but they also have rare clips of TV shows run by these DJs. Others interviewed include Pat Boone, Fabian, Casey Kasem and - separately - the members of Crosby, Stills and Nash.Read more ›

Calling all pudgy pooches and fat cats. It's time to get your humans to enter you in "The Biggest Shedder," a weight-loss contest for overweight pets. It's a lot like "The Biggest Loser" except it's not on TV and the prizes are aimed at winners with four feet.
However, the issue — obesity — is just as important for pets as for people. The Association for Pet Obesity Prevention reports that 53 percent of adult dogs and 55 percent of cats are overweight.
Here's how the contest works: Before Feb. 13, have your humans take you to the veterinarian for an initial weigh-in. If it's determined that you need to slim down, the vet should set a weight-loss goal that you can reach by mid-June, plus map out a diet.
Every couple of weeks, return to the vet to check your progress, and have your humans log the results online at www.biggestshedder.com. Doing so will make you eligible for drawings (prizes include $75 worth of pet toys).
The last weigh-in must take place by June 14. Pets that have reached their goal weight are entered into a drawing for $1,500 worth of goodies — some of them for you, some for your humans.
After the initial weigh-in, most vets won't charge to just use their scale, said Kristi Valentini, who is overseeing the contest for Florida-based BluePearl veterinary hospitals. Your humans also should know that the two BluePearl hospitals in the Twin Cities only take referrals, which is why you need to go to your regular vet.
To enter the contest, have your humans go to the Biggest Shedder website — and tell them to quit giving you those fatty snacks. □
