U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood today announced more than $42m in grants to improve ferry service and build new docks and facilities in 15 states and Puerto Rico. Congress authorized the Federal Highway Administration's Ferry Boat Program was created to fund ferry boat projects that provide critical access to areas that lack other means of transportation where high passenger demand already exists.

The projects include funding for the rehabilitation of the Hoboken ferry terminal in the New Jersey/New York City metropolitan area and the construction of a new ferry terminal in the Oyster Point Marina in south San Francisco.

"I registered and own the domain mmm-nigeria.net which expires on the 7th of June 2019 (could be extended).
"I make financial contributions (provide help) to the MMM Nigeria community like everyone else and accept all the benefits and risks like everyone else. On the 13th of October 2016, i provided help of N3,000,000. I am also a super guider (not even in the top 100) committed to helping tens of thousands of participants in the community with solution to their operational problems, including logging issue, account blocking, lifting of both temporary moratorium and removal of Google authenticator, to mention a few.
"Let me also say this; MMM by itself and left alone will run smoothly until Jesus Christ comes, but the negative attacks by the media creates unnecessary bias and fear in the minds of innocent and responsible participants, thereby breaking the organized, well thought out operational structure of any targeted MMM community, which inevitably leads to a temporary or in some cases permanent damage.
"Honestly speaking, no bank anywhere in the world can survive the nature of attacks thrown at MMM anywhere. Throw 10 percent of these attacks at any bank and see how the dawn of the next morning of the next working day will record chaos at the front gate, with thousands of account holders demanding to withdraw all their money.
"Even then the respective bank will have to manage the chaos and expectation of its disgruntled customers, by creating and presenting a structured approach toward any withdrawals. So the current freeze in place in MMM Nigeria is a structured approach towards maintaining a healthy community.
"I am a proud participant of MMM Nigeria and cannot wait to continue in January 2017. Since I joined MMM Nigeria, like the over two million Nigerians who are participants, I have benefited a lot from this divine arrangement. I am not moved of fazed by what the media say and how they have chosen to attack and destroy MMM Nigeria.
"Long Live MMM Nigeria. Long Live MMM Global. Long Live federal Republic of Nigeria, Together we change the world," he stated.

Jurgen Klopp and Louis van Gaal renewed hostilities on Sunday as Liverpool hosted Manchester United in one of the most eagerly-anticipated Premier League games of the season.
Wayne Rooney's goal was enough to give the visitors the points at Anfield with their only shot on target as they recorded a 1-0 victory at the home of their fiercest rivals.
Here, we look at how the former Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich managers fared in their first meeting in the Premier League.
After conceding three against Arsenal in midweek, Klopp looked to tighten his midfield by replacing flying winger Jordon Ibe with defensive midfielder Lucas Leiva.
Klopp kept Christian Benteke on the bench and kept faith with Roberto Firmino up front for the Reds even though the big Belgian had scored in his last three appearances against the visitors. United conceded three in midweek too, but Van Gaal named the same starting XI that drew at St James' Park.
MemphIs Depay has looked good in his last two substitute appearances, but Van Gaal opted against recalling his countryman, and Juan Mata even though he scored twice at Anfield last season.
Van Gaal said in his pre-match interview that Klopp's selection suggested Liverpool would not take as many risks and he was right. Liverpool's primary objective was to keep the likes of Anthony Martial, Ander Herrera and Wayne Rooney quiet. With Lucas stationed in front of the back four, they did exactly that.
The hosts grew in confidence as the match progressed. United, one the other hand, looked like their plan was to keep the ball and try to prise the vulnerable Liverpool defence open. It was only in the last half an hour that they looked threatening.
Herrera struggled to get on the ball and thread passes through the back four. Mata would have perhaps had a bigger impact had he been deployed in the number 10 role behind Wayne Rooney.
Klopp was his usual animated self at the side of the pitch. The enigmatic German barely sat down throughout the match and gesticulated to his players and the referee on a regular basis. Van Gaal, on the other hand, sat on the bench all afternoon, as he does almost every match.
Van Gaal was forced into a first-half change when Ashley Young hobbled off with what looked like a hip problem.
Cameron Borthwick-Jackson replaced him which gave United more balance as he slotted in at left-back and Matteo Darmian shifted to his natural position of right-back. Van Gaal's introduction of Mata proved vital as he supplied the cross for the goal.
Depay can count himself unlucky to have been made to wait until the 72nd minute to come on after his impressive showings off the bench against Sheffield United and Newcastle.
Klopp waited far too long to bring on Christian Benteke as Chris Smalling and Daley Blind were low on confidence and needed a physical test.
Van Gaal and Klopp had a head-to-head record of two wins each from their time in Germany, but it was the United manager who had the last laugh here.
His team once again failed to dazzle, but the introduction of Mata proved vital. Van Gaal's unwavering support of Wayne Rooney proved wise too as he showed superb technique to score the winner.

Lindsey Vonn crashes during training; extent of injury not known
Lindsey Vonn's defense of the Olympic downhill gold medal may now be in jeopardy.
Vonn crashed during training in Colorado Tuesday and was taken off the hill on a sled. It is not yet known the extent of Vonn's injury, but United States Ski Team spokesman Tom Kelly said there is no reason to believe it's serious.
"We have no reason to believe it's anything significant right now," Kelly told The Associated Press.

As an echo to that sentiment, Vonn's spokesman Lewis Kay told the AP that she was not admitted to the hospital and returned home to Vail to visit with the doctor that performed her knee surgery.
Kay added that Vonn's camp expects more details in the next day or so.
Vonn tore ligaments in her knee in February, but she was expected to compete in next year's Olympics in Sochi.

DSM Profit Beats Estimates on Growth in Nutrition and Materialsby
Nutrition ebitda grows 15 percent to 225 million euros
Materials ebitda grows 10 percent to 95 million euros
Royal DSM NV, the largest vitamin maker in the world, reported first quarter earnings that beat estimates amid signs of a recovery in demand for health supplements.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization from continuing operations rose 19 percent to 296 million euros ($333 million), the Heerlen, Netherlands-based company said in a statement on Tuesday. Analysts had estimated profit of 271 million euros on average. Ebitda at the nutritional unit gained 15 percent to 225 million euros, while the materials unit added 10 percent to 95 million euros.
"Both Animal and Human Nutrition delivered above-market volume growth, with Human Nutrition showing a marked improvement" Chief Executive Officer Feike Sijbesma said in the statement. "Materials remained robust, helped in part by the shift towards higher added-value products in the portfolio."
The Dutch company is cutting costs and jobs and making additional savings on raw materials and energy to boost margins by 2018. The CEO also plans to exit joint ventures in pharma and bulk chemicals, which he considers financial holdings rather than strategic.
Shares of the company have gained 13 percent at 52.16 euros in Amsterdam since the start of this year, valuing the company at 9.5 billion euros.

All politicians spin issues in their favour but what Kathleen Wynne's Liberals have been trying to get you to believe would ruffle even Donald Trump's hair.
The energy minister was my show last week selling the premiers latest rebate trying to offset the next round of electricity increases coming soon.
Rather than trying to fix the system they are simply giving you your money back by eliminating the provincial portion of the HST on your bill.
As the minister put it, basically the higher your electricity bill goes 'the more you will save'.
Yes you heard correctly…how does that makes sense?
Now the Liberal government has started a petition 'for lower hydro rates'!
Yes you heard correctly again!
Who are they petitioning? Themselves? The have a majority! They are the ones behind all this.
Are they both devil and angel?
What's really sad is they think you are stupid enough, not to see through this crap.
Are you?
I'm Scott Thompson.
Monday on The Scott Thompson Show!
Could attacks prior to U.S. election, change outcome?

The day before Thanksgiving I received an animal control call from a woman who had recently found a pregnant stray Rott/Shep type dog and taken her home. The finder tried to find the dog's owner but no one claimed her and 8 chunky puppies were born soon after. Unable to keep them and desperate about what to do with a large, protective mama and her 8 newborns, she called the shelter.
I told her that I would impound them through the shelter but then take them home to foster. I picked the family up, photographed mama and posted her on the shelter website and took them straight home where she would have a quite place to raise her babies. Ideally, puppies should be raised inside the house, however, I work ten to twelve hour days and have a house full of other pets. An 80 pound mama and 8 babies inside with me gone all day doesn't work. What I have set up is a little shed and spacious kennel area with a floor heater that goes under the bedding and keeps it quite cozy. I settled the little family in on some soft blankets and let mama get used to her new digs.
I named the mama Bonnie and she did a wonderful job with her babies. The first 3 weeks or so with newborns is pretty easy. Mama does all the feeding and clean up and I just scoop up after her, change the bedding every day or two and keep her bowls full. I also try and pick up each puppy for a moment or two to make sure they are gaining weight and get them used to being handled.
Around 3 weeks of age puppies get fun. They also start to be a lot of work. Their eyes are open, they are walking around, the little tails start to wag and they learn to bark and growl and play. They start eating soaked kibble and mama stops cleaning up. For the next 5 weeks it seems like all I do is refill massive bowls of food and scoop up a few hundred piles of puppy poop a day. They start wanting to interact with people and I bring them inside as often as possible. I encourage gentle visitors of all ages to come and cuddle and socialize the babies and give them a great start. Puppies are so much work but they are also good for the soul. They kiss and cuddle and nibble fingers while mama gets a tummy rub. Just spending time with them is a great stress reliever.
As the New Year gets underway, I prepare to send Bonnie and the babies to adoptive homes soon. My hope for 2015 is that each of them gets a wonderful home where they will be cherished as adored companions.
Do you have any hopes or plans for you your dogs or others in the coming year?

Helping Save a Dog's Life

December 23 2014
I had a profoundly moving experience recently. I pulled up on a call to pick up a sick kitten and the song The Christmas Shoes came on the radio. I wrote about this song in The Secret Life of Dog Catchers because it always makes me cry. Sometimes I see so many sad, terrible things on the job that I lose the ability to cry even when I need to. A tender song can be a catalyst to release some of that pain. The Christmas Shoes is about man who is feeling caught up on the stress and commercialism of Christmas. He's in line to buy something and the little boy in front of him doesn't have enough money for his purchase. The child is trying to buy a pair of shoes for his dying mother to wear to heaven. The boy asks the stranger to help him and the man finds the true meaning of Christmas in helping a stranger.
The song had me feeling teary as I got out of my animal control truck and as I crossed the parking lot a woman called to me from a car. She asked me to please help them so I approached and saw a family holding a tiny, older Chihuahua in their arms. The dog, Lilo, was the special pet of the ten year old daughter and was critically ill but they had no money. Every vet clinic and shelter had turned them away. Veterinarians are generally hard working and compassionate people but they have to make a living just like everyone else and shelters are there for animals who have no owners.
Lilo probably didn't weigh more than 3 or 4 pounds, with just enough gray around her muzzle to show her maturity without advanced age. The big brown eyes were resigned to her fate, whatever it may be and I could see that she was lethargic and dehydrated. The family was distraught and obviously adored their pet. I asked a few more questions and then called in my credit card number to a nearby vet clinic and asked them to please see the dog. The family and I embraced and exchanged some tears and I sent them on their way.
A couple of hours later the clinic called and said Lilo had a life threatening pyometra and needed emergency surgery to save her life. Pyometra is a nasty uterine infection common in un-spayed female dogs. The kind-hearted veterinarian gave me a break on the surgery and many generous people chipped in to help pay for it. Lilo ended up with major complications and spent 5 days in the hospital before she was well enough to be released. I was finally able to pick her up and drive her home and placing her in the daughter's arms was one of the best feelings I've had in a long time.
Now animal control officers don't make a lot of money. I buy most of my clothes at the Goodwill and drive a 20 year old car. We don't spend much at Christmas other than some gifts for the kids. We have everything we really need and although I love giving gifts, I don't like buying them just for the sake of buying them. Helping this family meant more to me than any gift I could ever get.
If I look close I can see my reflection in the dog's eyes.

The holidays can present a different picture for animal control officers and shelter workers. It's hard going to work each day and seeing all the homeless faces. Some eager and hopeful, some scared and lonely. All in need of someone to show them how good it can be. Of course not everyone can adopt a pet and certainly in most cases pets shouldn't be given as gifts. The exception is a parent who is committed to the life of a pet giving a pet to a child or a family who is picking out a pet together. It was once thought that no animals should be adopted out around Christmas but the thinking later changed to encourage people to give needy pets a home for the holidays. I'm all for taking things on a case by case basis. An easy-going family adopting a confident, happy dog can be a blast at any time.
Even if you can't adopt, there are lots of ways to make life sweeter for homeless pets during the holidays. As we look at our beloved pets lounging in pampered comfort, remember the dogs who have no one. Contact your local shelter or rescue and ask for a wish list. Donate blankets, food, toys, treats or money. Volunteering to walk and play with shelter dogs is a great way to walk off all the rich food most of us indulge in this time of year and makes all the difference for a lonely dog.
The holidays can be a stressful time for our own dogs as well. Some dogs thrive on all the activity this time of year but many don't. We often see cases of dogs biting visitors around the holidays. Even nice dogs can bite and dogs are limited in the ways they can ask for space. I constantly see well meaning people ignoring numerous stress signals from dogs. If your pet isn't thrilled to see visitors, settle them in a quiet room with some treats and toys instead of subjecting them to the chaos of people who may push them past their limits.
We can all benefit from slowing down and focusing on the real meaning of the season. What are you doing to make life sweeter for your pets and others?

Girl Scout went missing on June 14, 2014 after jumping a five foot fence at a friend's house in another town. An athletic 30 pound mixed breed, she was on the run in an unfamiliar area many miles from home. Her frantic owners immediately began the search and plastered missing posters on every surface for miles around. I saw the fliers every day as I went about my calls and I patrolled the area repeatedly hoping I would be able to find her and give her people the happy ending they were looking for. Girl Scout was microchipped and wearing a collar and tags (an animal control officer's favorite), and occasionally there would be sightings, but she was too frightened to go to anyone.
Weeks and then months went by and the sightings grew fewer. I wondered about her often, as I still saw the faded and tattered fliers everywhere. Sometimes new fliers would pop up as a result of another sighting but Girl Scout was no closer to being caught. Even formerly friendly, outgoing dogs sometimes get where they don't trust anyone and they just stay alive scrounging from trash cans and outdoor pet food bowls.
Three months after Girl Scout went missing, someone who had seen the fliers recognized her with a homeless man and was able to reunite her with her ecstatic family. A vet visit showed her to be thin, covered in tick bites and having broken her leg at some point. The leg had healed slightly crooked but overall, she is doing well.
Girl Scout's owners did a lot of things right to help her come home. They made reports to animal control, offered a reward and put up (and are taking down) more than 700 fliers, many of which were laminated, helping them last longer. They left their car, her crate, blankets etc at the areas she was seen. She had tags and a microchip, which would have helped in many situations although they weren't the saving factor in this case. They posted on Facebook, took out ads and searched relentlessly, but most of all, they never gave up.
I would love to hear from readers who have recovered a lost a dog. Tell us what you did to find them and how you were reunited.

I cried today, for a dog I only met once, years ago. I first met Hector at a Bad Rap (Bay Area Doglovers Responsible About Pit Bulls) event. Hector and another dog that had been rescued from Michael Vicks dog fighting ring were there. The two of them were as delightful as any dogs I've ever might. Hector was horribly scarred but all he wanted to do when he saw another dog was play. His eager whines, gently wagging tail and welcoming play bows were evident whenever he saw a potential new friend, human or canine. I fell in love with him on the spot.
As a long time shelter worker, I have an embarrassing confession. When I heard that Bad Rap was going to try and save some of Michael Vicks dogs, I disagreed with it. I love dogs. I love pit bulls. And I had seen far too many of them euthanized for lack of homes. My feeling at the time was that we couldn't even find homes for all the pits that hadn't been bred and trained for fighting so it didn't make sense to save a group of dogs with such a terrible history. I felt that the kindest thing was to gently let them go. Hector taught me that every dog deserves to be judged on his own merits. As it turned out, most of Vicks dogs were just neglected, unsocialized animals in desperate need of a friend. With few exceptions, most of them even liked other dogs.
Thankfully for Hector and the rest of the Vick dogs, the amazing folks at Bad Rap believed the dogs deserved a chance. They evaluated them, found foster homes, waited through a lengthy trial and finally placed the dogs in homes or sanctuaries depending on their needs. Hector was placed in amazing home and soon had his own facebook page that topped 200,000 likes. He lived out the rest of his life as an adored and beloved companion until he passed away October 27th from cancer. Sweet dreams Hector.
You were loved.

I followed the sweet, white-haired woman down a flight of stairs as we chatted about her day. She had called our shelter and stated that she had found a stray dog a few days previously had been unable to locate the owner. She requested an animal control officer to pick it up. When we reached the basement she opened the door. I looked inside and stopped in surprise. It's pretty rare that I'm speechless. In my job I sometimes feel like I've seen it all. The dog wagged his tail eagerly but it took me just a moment to get my wits about me. He was extremely tiny at only three pounds but his slightly graying muzzle showed him to be long past puppyhood. He was unusually small but what caught me off guard was the fact that he had no front feet.
The little guy stood up on his rear legs and wiggled and wagged at me in delight. I scooped him up, impressed by his happy attitude, while still being shocked at his lack of front feet. One limb ended abruptly just past the elbow, while the other was slightly longer with a floppy bit of flesh at the end. One tiny nail spiraled bizarrely out of the tip to a great length. He was a little thin and his coat was black with fleas that swarmed over his skin in tremendous numbers. Even as I held him, he was attempting to scratch the pests that plagued him. Closer inspection showed him to have rotten teeth and a penis that would not retract into the sheath and he kind of stumped along on that too. Even his back feet, while appearing fairly normal, only had two toenails apiece.
I placed the dog in a well padded carrier in the front seat of my animal control truck and he curled up, seeming content other than the constant scratching at his fleas. I kept glancing at the dog as I drove. It was likely that his feet had been missing since birth. Whether it was a congenital issue or the result of an overeager new mom chewing more than the umbilical cord, I couldn't say. He looked back at me, big brown eyes trusting and accepting of whatever I chose for him. Someone must have cared about him somewhat or he never would have made it to adulthood. I pictured a poor but caring family with few resources to deal with a dog like him. The must have fed him, sheltered him and cuddled him for he was friendly and trusting. I wondered how he had ended up on his own after all this time. Back at the shelter, I placed him in a warm sudsy bath and scrubbed and rinsed the fleas off of him until the water ran black. I dried him in a big fluffy towel and he was photographed, vaccinated, wormed and treated for his fleas.
Due to his numerous medical issues, I took him home to foster. I decided to call him Joey as he reminded me of a baby kangaroo the way he stood up on his hind legs. Joey's attitude and good nature is a constant source of delight and a reminder that life is less about what happens to us and more about how we respond. A veterinary check up and bloodwork showed him to be relatively healthy other than the obvious. The vet guessed him at around 7 or 8 years of age and also found that his jaw is fractured, maybe from his rotten teeth, and he's a bit anemic, likely from all the fleas that had been feasting on his blood for who knows how long. He will need at least another month or so in foster care to try and resolve his anemia before he's neutered and has his dental needs addressed.
Joey is thriving in foster care in my home and has numerous adoption options, including a woman who previously had a Chihuahua with no front feet. He is friendly and happy and loves people, especially children. In every way, he is a well adjusted little guy who doesn't let his issues define him. As much as I would love to keep him, he would be happier in a home that where the adopter doesn't work full time as I do. He is such a reminder that in spite of the challenges that many of us have, there is much joy to be found in life, if only we look for it. There is a lesson to be learned from every dog I meet and Joey certainly has much to teach.
I would love to hear about readers experiences with dogs with unusual challenges.

As an animal control officer, I've seen a lot of tough stuff, but last summer's callout to pick up a stray Pit Bull was about as bad as it gets. The old dog was so emaciated that I could count every rib and vertebra, and could have hung my hat on her hip bones.
She was also missing much of her hair, her skin was inflamed, her nails were long and the cruciate ligaments in both of her hind legs had clearly ruptured. In spite of her condition, this old girl was thrilled to be shown some attention. She held my gaze with big brown eyes that melted my heart. When I stroked her sweet face, her hairless tail whipped so hard that she nearly fell over. I wrapped my arms around her stinky, bony body and hugged her.
The shelter vet gave her a poor prognosis. Not only was she old, she was in extremely bad condition, and her blood work looked terrible. Still, the shelter did what it could for her, among other things, starting her on a gradual re-feeding program; her appetite was voracious. I visited her every day, and when her stray hold was up, I named her Patty and took her home to foster.
As Patty settled easily into life as a pampered house dog, I went to work on finding justice for her. I consulted a friend, an investigator for the DA's office, and together, we put in many hours on the case. During the investigation and court proceedings, Patty lived in our home but could not be formally adopted until the case was resolved. In the meantime, she gained 20 pounds, her hair grew back and her skin improved tremendously. She was so strong, shiny and vigorous that it was hard to believe she had ever been anything else.
Finally, 10 months after I picked her up, we wrapped up Patty's case with two arrests, a felony conviction with jail time and a court-ordered diversion program.
During her time with us, my entire family fell in love with this delightful old dog (we learned that she will be 12 this year). She cuddles with my geriatric cats and ancient Chihuahua mix, greets visitors like long-lost friends, and adores children. Without a doubt, Patty has blessed our lives at least as much as we have blessed hers. You can guess where this is going. Years ago, I made a sort of "bucket list," things I wanted to do or to accomplish. One was to adopt an old, beat-up dog and pamper the heck out of him or her. Last week, I finalized Patty's adoption as a formal member of our family. This may be the best thing I've checked off that list yet.
This experience reminded me of two important facts: justice for abused dogs is possible, and many elderly dogs—even elderly, broken-down dogs—have life and joy left in them; all they need is a chance. If you're thinking about adopting a dog, find it in your heart to give one of these venerable creatures a home.

Animal control officers often have to be very creative in capturing an elusive dog. The key is to make the animal feel safe but sometimes they are just too afraid to trust. I recently had a call of a dog that showed up as a stray with a companion near a rural vineyard. The two dogs were large flock guardian types and wanted to be friendly but just too wary to be captured. A fellow animal control office finally managed to skillfully loop one of them and bring him to safely but the companion bolted, becoming even more fearful.
I was working the area over the next few days and was so hopeful to capture the remaining dog. The dog refused to go in a trap or be cornered in any way and I worried about him out there on his own. He also refused treats if anyone was near. I worked closely with the residents to come up with a plan but a couple of days passed with no luck. I gave the resident my personal cell number to keep in touch and we worked out a plan. Finally I went into work early and got the dog that was already at the shelter. I was worried about losing him again so I placed him in one of our large dog traps to keep him safe. I loaded him up in the truck, picked up a couple of cheeseburgers on the way and headed out. With me I had my rescued Doberman, Breeze, who loves other dogs. I also carry a sealed plastic bag containing a rag with scent from a female dog in season. It took nearly an hour to reach the remote location where the dog was and there was no guarantee that I would even find the other dog.
I was thrilled to find the remaining dog lying in front of the gate at the remote property. Scared dogs are uncomfortable with any kind of attention focused on them so I ignored him and unloaded his buddy. The loose dog showed immediate interest so I walked away, admiring the view high on our mountaintop location. The two dogs sniffed and wagged through the wire and I watched the loose dog began to relax. I gradually walked back to my truck, still ignoring the loose dog. I got Breeze out and tied my "in season" rag to her collar. She greeted the loose dog happily and he sniffed her eagerly. I then began feeding bites of cheeseburger to the caged dog. Breeze joined in and we had a little pow wow with the dogs eagerly taking the bites I offered.
The atmosphere was quiet and relaxed and soon the loose dog was taking bites of cheeseburger along with the others. I was able to scratch his neck but he still wouldn't allow me to slip a lead on or get a hold on him. As he grew more comfortable he began trying to gulp the burger out of my hands and I was finally able to get him with a snappy snare (a flexible tool with a quick release loop). He didn't even fight me at that point and I let him gobble the last of the treat before loading him in the truck alongside his buddy.
Driving back down the mountain I was so relieved and grateful that both dogs were safe and would get the care they needed. The dogs were not claimed and were later transferred to a wonderful rescue group experienced with flock guardian breeds where they wait for their forever home.

Just about every Monday morning finds me at the local off-leash dog beach with a group of dogs and a friend or two. It is such a welcome break from my demanding and stressful job as an animal control officer. The dogs I see at the beach are beautiful, happy and loved. Old and young, large and small, they are having a blast getting exercise, playtime and social interaction. It's a delightful change from some of the heartbreak I see at work.
On a recent beach day I came across a scene which touched me deeply. A couple stood looking out at the ocean. Between them was a canvas stretcher with a handle that could be pulled across the sand. There was a thick dog bed on the stretcher and a very old dog lay flat on the bed. I paused for a moment, gazing at the gray muzzle and alert but cloudy eyes of the old dog. One of my dogs came up and before I could call her, the two dogs sniffed noses. The old dog was unable to even lift his head, but I could see that he was aware of what was happening around him and seemed to enjoy the interaction. I called my dog and apologized to the couple for the intrusion.
The dog and his people were calm and accepting and I continued on my way with a lump in my throat. I'm guessing that this was good-bye and that the people wanted the dog to have a last visit to a place he loved. To smell the salt air and feel the sweet ocean breeze. It was so obvious that this dog was adored, cherished, beloved. I teared up at the thought of what was coming and yet, in my world, I found it to be a beautiful scene. I've seen the old dogs, abandoned and alone in the shelter. I've held those unwanted dogs and tenderly stroked their gray muzzles. I've told them they were loved and kissed them as they drew their last breath.
This is what every dog deserves, I thought, as I took a final backward glance at the little family. All three were gazing out to sea.
I would love to hear how readers have made good-bye special for an adored companion.

I'm usually a pretty upbeat person but it was one of those rare days when I was in a sad funk. A series of tragic calls had really taken it out of me. I was in a fog and struggling at work when I got a call of another sighting of a stray dog that had been roaming the area for days. Fellow animal control officers had tried sweet talk and cookies without luck and had even managed to net her a few days previously but so great was her panic that she ripped through the net and escaped again. I knew my chances of catching her were slim but a long walk in the fields where she had been seen sounded appealing.
A neighbor pointed the dog out to me; a tan blur huddled in the high grass. I spoke softly to her and offered treats but she got up and hurried away. I sat down and waited but she would have none of it. I then tried to head her off, aware of the rapidly rising temperature of what was going to be a very hot day, but she bolted away from me. The neighbor followed and we tried to corner the dog but she growled and changed direction each time we got near. I noticed that she seemed weak and stumbled several times. I wondered if she was sick or just dehydrated from being on the run. At one point she fell and I sat in the grass hoping to reassure her but she soon staggered to her feet and took off again. As I got closer I could see the engorged ticks covering her body. Hundreds of them. In her ears, on her face and everywhere on her skin.
Finally I was able to get close enough to loop a leash over the dog's head as she tried to dodge past me. She immediately collapsed to the ground and I carried her, ticks and all, to my truck. I could feel the fear and tension in her muscles as her body pressed against me. I settled her on a blanket in the vehicle and stroked her sweet face and told her it would be ok. I gave her water, flipped on the A/C and then we headed back to the shelter. The shelter techs and I spoke softly to her and began removing the ticks one by one as she slowly started to relax. There was something so rewarding about giving comfort to this lost creature that I forgot my sadness. By the time the ticks were all gone and she had a good meal, the dog was wagging her tail and we were both feeling much better.
The dog's owners claimed her soon afterwards and my heart was full with the knowledge that she was finally safe at home after being lost for more than a week. Sometimes the best way to feel better is to help someone else feel better.

Pros: I got this monitor as a downsize from a HP lp2475w (which I bought for almost nothing), partly because I thought at the time a smaller monitor would be less cumbersome. The color is impressive, though it involves a bit of tinkering if you're meticulous (check other reviews). That said, it's ideal for certain images.
The pivot/swivel works pretty seamlessly too. Also, for the connectors on the back, you're getting a nice deal here.
Cons: Oh boy, where to begin. The speakers are awful, but no one buys these for the speakers right?
The color options don't really seem to change much, or lack the ability to be precise (a bit too plain for the price and intent of the monitor). I imagine many people buying a monitor like this NEED precision with color that they see.
Why the 2 eggs out of 5, you might wonder? Well only a few months in, I suddenly had a red tint appear on the right side of the screen (red lines moving under the screen to be exact). I checked with several different connectors, cables weren't an issue (HDMI, DP, DVI). I tried the laptop on a friend's monitor, no red tint there!
Ultimately it seemed something internal in the monitor was failing. As I write, I'm seeming the same red tint on the right side of the monitor.
Other Thoughts: Ultimately I switched back to the HP lp2475w. It's just not easy to lose the screen real estate from 24" to 23", and it might seem ridiculous, but it's noticeable. Plus, the old HP just can connect to anything.
Despite the 2 eggs, I didn't dislike this product. I like ASUS (my laptop is a g55vw), I'm building a new pc with a X79 Sabertooth Mobo, but unfortunately this monitor went bad. I would have RMA'd it, but it wasn't worth the trouble at the beginning of my graduate school's first year. Also, the monitor went bad past Newegg's RMA date.
Better luck next time!

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
A power of attorney was deemed invalid by a financial institution because the notary date was inconsistent with the execution dates on the power of attorney document. The notary date is the 20th of the month. The signature dates are the 2nd of the month. I want to avoid a conservatorship, how do I get past this error?
Someone needs to educate the financial institution. There is not necessarily an error in the power of attorney. A power of attorney can be signed one day and the signature acknowledged on a different day, as long as the person telling the notary that that is their signature and that they intended to execute the form.
A power of attorney is legally sufficient if all of the following requirements are satisfied:
(a)The power of attorney contains the date of its execution.
(b)The power of attorney is signed either (1) by the principal or (2) in the principal's name by another adult in the principal's presence and at the principal's direction.
(c)The power of attorney is either (1) acknowledged before a notary public or (2) signed by at least two witnesses who satisfy the requirements of Section 4122.
The following is the requirement for an Acknowledgment: There is nothing in the code that says the document must be acknowledged on the same day as the document is executed.
The certificate of acknowledgment must be in the form set forth in Civil Code section 1189.
In the certificate of acknowledgment, the notary public certifies:
• That the signer personally appeared before the notary public on the date indicated in the
county indicated;
• To the identity of the signer; and
• That the signer acknowledged executing the document.
It is also important to point out that a diagnosis of Dementia does not necessarily mean that a person is incompetent to either do their own banking, or to execute a new power of attorney.
Every situation is different, it is important to discuss your legal issue with a knowledgeable attorney in your jurisdiction. To schedule an appointment with me please contact me at 800 220-4205 or www.MartyBurbankLaw.com
If you can locate the notary have them recertify their notarization. This is a case of form over substance. Affidavits of any witnesses could be used to correct the discrepancy. Or you can contact an elder law attorney to have them meet with the person to see if they have sufficient capacity to execute a new POA.
If the principal still has capacity, a new POA should be drawn up. I can understand the bank's position on this, even though I agree that it is possible to notarize documents based on the principal's acknowledgement. Given possible issues of dementia, however, the bank needs to protect their customer, (and protect themselves from liability).

Your writing evinces a strong understanding of the internals of the human heart, which may well be why your published works thus far, (more will certainly be to come), capture the dynamics of conflict in the souls so well. The ability to switch views, and to peer through the eyes of others verbally is a strengh. It is also perhaps the engine that drives the excellence of your blog. Hate that word...sounds like the sound you make pulling your boot from a mud puddle.:)
Anywho...always an adventure to peruse your thoughts.

My current WIP has multiple POV, which is going to be very different for me and I hope I can pull it off. As far as writing for children is concerned, I think picture books would be a challenge. Trying to tell a story in so few words would be really hard!

First, not all children's books are written in first person. Quite a lot of them aren't, in fact. And second, while "anyone" can write in first person, "anyone" can write in third. Or second. Or omni. "Anyone" can do it, but few can do it well.

I write for adults (one day, maybe adults will read me!). I generally don't set out at the start of a project with the intent to write in one POV or another, I just kind of go with what I "hear" in my head, with what seems right. My WiP is in first. The last two manuscripts were close third. The first was in first. I even did a short story in second (and I really liked how it came out). Interestingly, the one I am not comfortable with is omni. I just never feel like I get the narrative voice right on that one.

Good luck with your 3rd-person WiPs, and definitely give yourself some slack. If you're used to writing (and maybe reading) first person all the time, it will take a little getting used to anything else.JeffOhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-4250988928163509961.post-58993750726620334442017-01-12T21:22:07.034-08:002017-01-12T21:22:07.034-08:00Thanks, Dad:)Thanks, Dad:)Krista Van Dolzerhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-4250988928163509961.post-15125722297750484072017-01-12T21:20:30.016-08:002017-01-12T21:20:30.016-08:00:):)Krista Van Dolzerhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-4250988928163509961.post-29994694786107855342016-12-26T18:46:25.779-08:002016-12-26T18:46:25.779-08:00Late to the table, but a think or three: I am del...Late to the table, but a think or three:

I am delighted to aver I voted for neither of the scurrilous candidates, (although push come to "or else", Trump would have, (ahem), trumped my choice. Appalling scene.
The sickness is long in gestation, a disease and dying of the ages as shown by the history of all great civilizations. The Founders hoped that the trend could be bucked, and gave every effort of inspiration to avert the cataclysm. But all depends on the virtue of the people, and as Adams, Jefferson< Franklin and George all pointedly noted, the near certainty was to be a falling away for the principles that sustain and bolster a Republic, for all rests on the desire of the people to stand on righteous ground. It makes discouragement and worse a companion. yet, we MUST stand and witness, in whatever capacity God has gifted us to stir the waters. My rather pathetic efforts, well, they may be useless. Yet we need always to grab the oar. YOUR effort reaches wide, and will be an influence long past even your own years. Acknowledge what you do.
Remember the "Girl At The Mirror" by Rockwell? She doubts herself, her worth, her beauty. yet as I have told the story, per Mr. Rockwell, the angle of the painting is of her mother peeking around the door thinking, :What a beautiful daughter! what an amazing gift I have given the world!"
And recall the words of E. T Benson, 1978:
"There are a great many of this people who are afraid =o be involved in the fight for freedom, because it is an unpopular fight. But they make a terrible mistake, perhaps fatal, for your eternal destiny is NOT determined by Gallup Polls, but rather by where YOU stand. You will enjoy freedom in the next life only to the extent you will stand for freedom (and by extension, virtue), in this life.
 I will hush. Tilt at the Windmills, and save your soul.

Aside from all the bs at the top, WE are still good people. We won't become racist if our leaders are (and I don't think he's racist on an individual level, but foolishly reacts to stereotypes like many people who just haven't "got there yet."

But I 100% believe the country is progressing on social issues, will continue to progress as the old fogies die off and leave acceptance for all in the hands of the young. Social progress is inevitable and I don't really think it should be in the hands of government.

I would like to see the economy improve and I'm pretty confident that would never happen with Hillary. Will it happen with Trump? I think it's possible, but as a business owner, I also understand the businessperson's attitude of go big or go home. Sometimes it pays off, sometimes not so much. Only time will tell.

But take heart. The people have not changed, we still love one another, it's up to us to really make things better at a local level. It always has been, we need to embrace that, share it, let that attitude of caring and sharing take over the world. Then politicians can focus on the things they're supposed to.GSMarlenehttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-4250988928163509961.post-15038262550016979442016-11-11T05:05:13.258-08:002016-11-11T05:05:13.258-08:00 We will get through this.

Dear Krista,

If that is any consolation, you are not alone.

But seriously, there was nothing compassionate or even conservative about Donald Trump. Look at the way he has led his life. Hillary Clinton has been far more conservative in her life, like her decision to stick with her husband despite his serial marital infidelities. (I think that was non-intelligent of her, but that's neither here nor there).

Mr. Trumps is a radical reactionary. Have you read Prof. Mark Lilla's The Shipwrecked Mind? If not please do. It's absolutley timely.

In the meantime, don't lose heart. Let us not be like him, never be like him. That is a good place to begin, the way I see it.
