Mr J Mindham purchased this apartment in 2007
With the sun streaming into the living room in mid-February, coming from the north of Europe how could I resist?
Quiet apartment in a quiet residential area (wake up hearing the birds sing !), but in the centre of town and only a few minutes walk from the Croisette/beach/Palais des Festivals. Private parking. Adjustable air-conditioning/heating. WiFi internet and FREE landline calls to many countries.
It was a pleasure to stay in this attractive and spacious apartment in a quiet neighbourhood just a short walk from local food shops and the station, and less than 10 minutes walk from the beach. It's an interesting and pleasant walk to Le Suquet, the old town. The owner was friendly and very helpful, giving us clear information and useful advice. Each room is sunny and bright, well furnished and clean. The kitchen is well equipped and the bathroom and shower room well appointed. The king size bed was wonderfully comfortable. The apartment is not overlooked and enjoys views in both directions: the view from the lounge was particularly impressive in the evening. The balconies (with electric blinds) are a considerable bonus.
All told, a five star experience which we hope to repeat
Our visit to Cannes was especially enjoyable this year. This apartment has wonderful light, a fantastic location and all the essential amenities. The refurbished bathrooms were also a plus. The owner was very helpful and available if needed (and he wasn't needed). Grocery store nearby was handy. The train station was minutes away, for travel to other towns. I would definitely stay here again.
We booked this apartment for a late summer break in Cannes and it was perfect.
Bright and spacious with lovely views we had breakfast on the balcony on one side and a glass of wine in the evening on the other side as the sun went down.
Spotlessly clean and it had everything we needed ( and more) fabulously comfortable bed and super shower!
The owner has made it feel just like home with lots of advice on how everything worked as well as how to find the local supermarket and bakery for the morning croissants!
The local market is a five minute walk away and two minutes later you are on the beach!
Very convenient flat with great access to main shops and the sea.
Wonderful to return and enjoy again the amazing views of the terracotta roofs and hill. The balconies mean it is possible to enjoy sunshine all day. Extremely comfortable bed in large ensuite main bedroom, as well as being very quiet. Everything needed is just so close by and Cannes is such a beautiful and friendly seaside town.
We rented Jonathan's apartment for 3 weeks during Christmas and New Year. The apartment is nice, bright and from the living room and one of the bedrooms you have a nice view over the hills of Cannes (La Californie). We usually had breakfast at the dining table in the living room and sitting there seeing the sun rise over Cannes is very nice. The apartment is on the 4th of 6 floors and located in a residential area with secure parking provided in an adjacent building. In the apartment there are 2 bedrooms, a living room (with large flat screen TV), kitchen with all you need (including dishing- and washing machine), 1 bathroom with tub, a separate shower and in total 3 toilets. There are foodstores in the area of which one is a supermarket, abt 5 minutes walk from the apartment. The walk from the apartment to the Croisette takes less than 10 minutes. Everything was as per our expectations and Jonathan proved to be a caring owner with useful tips about what to do and where to go. We enjoyed our stay a lot and would gladly rent it again, should we return to Cannes.
Margitta and Hakan from Gothenburg
My wife and I had a very enjoyable week in Cannes. The apartment, is comfortable, light, airy and located in a quiet location. We were met by Jonathan the owner, who supplied us with all we needed to know about the apartment and the surrounding area. The railway station is only a little over five minutes away and a supermarket just down the road. There are many restaurants to choose from nearby in Cannes if you decide not to eat in.
We have just spent a week in this glorious apartment and didn't want to leave, it was the best holiday property we have ever rented.
We were met by the charming owner Jonathan who made us feel so welcome and we felt that he really wanted us to enjoy our stay in Cannes. After a helpful introduction to everything in the apartment we just knew we had found the right place.
The bedrooms were spacious and had everything we needed and the bathrooms were spotlessly clean. The sitting room was much bigger than we expected and had super comfy chairs and sofas as well as a table and chairs. The kitchen was so perfect and had everything you could possibly want, even a Nespresso machine!
Comfy beds and extremely powerful showers all made it a five star accommodation.
It's in a great location just a ten minute walk to the beach with all the shops of Cannes nearby. There is a bakery and a supermarket around the corner.
We will definitely book this apartment again
Centrally but quietly situated in glamorous Cannes, famous for it's Film Festival and the glitterati, with some of the best shops in the world on your doorstep, just a few minutes walk from the Croisette, where you can stroll along and admire the beautiful yachts and sunsets... and just 'people-watch' from one of the (free) blue chairs, or enjoy the beautiful private or public beaches.
St Tropez (take a boat!), Grasse, Nice (explore the Flower Market and Old City) and Italy are all easily accessible by car or train.
Or explore the quaint old town of Cannes 'Le Suquet', the museums, antique and flower markets on foot or with the help of 'Le Petit Train', and have your photo taken on the red carpet of the Palais des Festivals.
For shopping the rue d'Antibes is HEAVEN! Very stylish shops, not necessarily expensive. For everyday needs there are a supermarket, boulangerie, bars, restaurants etc within 100 metres, and the food markets at Place Gambetta and Forville are a few minutes walk

Playgrounds are great places for children to get exercise and have fun, but it's important for parents and caregivers to take steps to protect youngsters from potential dangers.
"Most playground injuries involve minor cuts and scrapes, but they can also be much more serious," says Kelley Vincentini, Injury Prevention Specialist at Children's Hospital & Medical Center.
The American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) reports more than 200,000 children visit emergency departments each year with head, neck and spinal cord injuries; broken bones; internal bleeding; and other life threatening injuries related to playground accidents.
"We want kids to be outside playing and having fun, but we want to help them do it safely," says Vincentini.
Keep children safe at the playground by following a few simple guidelines:

There's something inherently exciting about a new label. It's a clean slate, a leaf turned, maybe the next one to fall head over heels for as it mines hitherto unknown seams of music or brings together a selection of excellent artists under one banner. They're a fresh chance to stamp music with a signature visual identity and play with the more physical and visual elements of an otherwise pretty abstract medium. There's a romance to it, not least for those drawn to doing it; being there for every step of the process from conception to pressing to distribution, the ability to draw out the entire blueprint and have total control over every aspect of the design must be pretty appealing. Maybe there's the thrill of the risk of it too, you wouldn't guess from the glut of Monday morning press releases announcing another artist-run venture, but these things are pretty tricky to get right and balance books with. But maybe, with the right care and attention it can be something to get people talking, listening and buying.
There's a sense from Stephen Bishop (also known as Basic House) that his new found label Opal Tapes is founded to give something back. It seems built to draw in and concentrate a diverse range of styles he's drawn to into a connected present sound, a love for any and all experimentalism coupled with dance music all emulsified into new and strange compelling mixtures. His music as Basic House indicates his love of the sound; crusty amalgamations that constantly interplay the abstract with hints of the dance. There's a kind of medial point honed in upon between several influences.
The first wave of releases are exclusively on cassette, which takes a certain boldness in this day and age. We've chatted over the last couple of weeks and discussed a similar enthusiasm for the 'tape scene', and his only physical release so far has been a limited cassette on Koppklys, so there's obviously a long term association with the template there, but it all really falls into place when listening to the music he's championing. Dro Carey (one of the first presentations of his singular sound under the 'housier' Tuff Sherm moniker ahead of a Trilogy Tapes 12"), M. Geddes Gangres (or PERSONABLE here) and Huerco S. all feel at home on the spools of a cassette. With each showcasing around about an album's worth of material Opal Tapes is getting a pretty strong foot in the door.
Bishop's mix for us showcases his sound and those he's beating the drum for at the minute. I caught up with him in the week that the imprint rolls out to ask him what compelled him to start it, and to find out a little more about it.
Sonic Router: So you're starting up this Opal Tapes imprint. What made you decide to dive into that realm?
Basic House: I've been a consumer and collector of music for many years. I first began to collect hardcore and screamo singles from Gravity and Level Plane and Ebullition and the like when I was 16 or so. It's always been fun for me to compile and sort and categorise things. When I first recognised what was happening in noise music and obscurist underground shit it was like Willy Wonka for record collectors. I have fond memories of blindly buying MSBR tapes and banned productions shit on ebay with no clue what the sonic content would be having only seen a photo of the nuts packaging. I guess I was buying music as a truly physical thing with more onus put on the package than the sonics. This continued for years until the internet really got up to pace and then I found myself collecting more and more music digitally. Being given the option to archive entire label discographies and hear music from everywhere just overtook me. It was brilliant because my mind was just twisting to all these sounds and ideas but I was losing touch with music as a product and artifact.
In the last 4 years I've tried my best to support the artists and labels I respect and spend what I have and can on good honest DIY music. It only seemed natural that at some point I'd like to release some music too. It just seems like the extension of my love of the stuff. Despite the Opal Tapes moniker I don't intend to just release music on tape, but I do have a relationship with tapes which differs from CD's and digital files. They're so much more tactile and mechanical and beautiful. I really love how they look.
Does the label have an overall concept behind it then? A particular aesthetic or sound you're championing?
Well the initial thought was to simply try to bring artists working in beat driven electronic music (whose work shows a lot of emphasis on texture) and give them the opportunity to release side-project material or diversions into sound making that differs from their regular output. Equally to bring folks from the noise and drone fringes who were making music that too was textural but also inherently rhythmic. Ged Gengras being the example in batch 1. I think in that middle area there is great scope for interesting music making and composition.
Right now Terekke, Huerco S, Smackos, Henny Moan is doing it a lot for me. Crusty, sexy music with busted to fuck grooves or none at all. I like that dusty, crusty sound but embellished with shards of glossy sound; that's kinda where my head is currently, aesthetically. The artwork for Opal is just themed to the release I guess. I'll listen for a few weeks and play on the computer.
How's managing it been thus far?
Everything has been a breeze so far. Email and forums have proved fruitful grounds to contact and make concrete plans to release people's music. I'm trying to keep duplication and production of artwork and packaging as local as possible and social networking assists greatly in generating an audience and keeping them informed. It's supposed to be a fun project so I'm not taking anything too seriously but I want the tapes to look and sound real good.
It's kind of an interesting dichotomy you've got then, working online but keeping the physicality of the thing locally produced…
I dunno how interesting it is…? There is some music being made locally that I love but nothing that fits what I want to do with Opal really. I recently was contacted by a guy called Michael Hann who is making music under the name Rejections that's real good, he's from Stockton. His most recent music has an industrial hardcore feel just flattened out with thick slabs of synth. Real dark but total body music.
You're drawing artists from all over (Dro Carey in Oz, M Geddes Gangres from the US) for your initial batch of releases. What drew you to each of them?
I first came across Eugene's work through Trilogy Tapes; his Venus Knock EP as Dro Carey blew me away. Dubstep and modern bass music seemed so stagnant at that point and I'm always drawn to stuff with a bit of crust to it so his mixture of lo-fi sampling, hi-fi production, swagger and a generally nauseous atmosphere just spoke to me. I never really thought to contact him about a release until it was brought to my knowledge that he posted on a message board I regularly visited. I shot him a message and he was down. I think the fact that I had sent him some DJ Pantha bits a couple of years prior helped sway his decision [laughs]. Eugene is a gentleman and it's a pleasure to release his music.
Huerco S. was someone whose music I had heard while browsing soundcloud a couple years back. Again I just sent a message to him complimenting him and letting him know about Opal and the ethos behind it. He was down early on and we just talked about him having the opportunity to release something which defied his usual syrupy take on house. The b-side to his tape which he created with friend Exael is just a gorgeous thing. It sounds like jewellery being held up to the sun. Again he's a lovely bloke and really funny and I think he's gonna fly in the next couple years. The academia of hypnagogia seems to have faded which has left us with some wonderful, evocative music without the high brows. This exemplifies his music to me: sexy, faded, blurry and a little dangerous.
Ged Gengras or PERSONABLE is the man. His releases under his own name are prized possessions of mine and are regularly spun. I first heard his magical writing on his own Peccant Tapes imprint and it gave me one of those feelings you only rarely get with music. Total body waves of pleasure. I wanted to put something of his out and when I came across his PERSONABLE project which seemed to fit the Opal aesthetic more I asked him. Guy is busy with Sun Araw currently and would probably play on the moon if asked.
Has the music that the guys you're working with make influenced your own stuff as Basic House?
Not really. Basic House is just me trying to come to terms with the fact that I'll never be Theo Parrish. As dance music and electronic music in general has become more important in my life I've always sought to combine it with my interests in electro-acoustics and the noise/drone axis. When you get high in the toilets at clubs and you can hear the music from the main room but it's reflected by the tiled walls and floor and all the sounds of communication and sex and hand dryers and stuff. This is what I'm thinking about with Basic House. It's the middle ground between the dancefloor and toilet bowl. Just decaying sound and grit and muck with a groove.
Got any plans to put more stuff out yourself soon?
The next Opal batch is being put together currently. I'll definitely be putting out some music from Portland's Best Available Technology and Stockholm's OND TON, as well as the aforementioned Rejections. I send messages to lots of people, most of whom probably think I'm nuts cause I tend to write my initial letter to them with a hammy English sensibility, very polite and correct. Like I sent Spaceghostpurrp a message about doing a release in this manner [laughs] I don't think he read it.
Basic House will see a future releases on Washy, a label my good friend Cameron Sked aka Totem Recall is starting up and on Alex Cobbs new sub-label to Students of Decay called Glass Console… possibly an LP on Students of Decay in the future too. I'd love to do more.
Tell us a little about the mix you've put together for us…
The mix is intended to introduce some of my music and the music to be released on Opal Tapes. I like to hear mixes where the emphasis isn't on technical mixing but on selection and storytelling. Maybe the story here is that things always clear up before they get covered in crap again.
Any wise words?
Not really. Play safe but always play. Thanks to friends, family and ghosts.

Transferring to MTSU College of Liberal Arts
Transferring to a new school can be stressful and confusing. The College of Liberal Arts has dedicated advisors that want to make this transition as smooth as possible. We encourage all new transfer students to meet with one of the College Academic Advisors in addition to meeting with their faculty advisor. The College Advisors can help evaluate transcripts and complete course substitutions if needed.
For general information on transferring to MTSU please visit the Office of Transfer Student Services.
The first step for newly admitted students is to complete the online Transfer Student Orientation. In the process of completing this online orientation you will have the opportunity to schedule an appointment to meet with a college advisor. At your appointment the college advisor will review your transcripts and show you what courses will fulfill MTSU's graduation requirements. If a course does not fulfill a general education, major, or minor requirement then it will most likely be used as an elective. In general most majors require a certain number of electives in order to reach the 120 hours required for graduation. After meeting with an advisor you will be able to register for the upcoming semester. Please remember that all holds must be removed before registration, you can review your Pipeline account to view holds and registration times.

And while major companies are investing in this, such as Google TV, the social TV experience is currently fairly limited in reach. But this hasn't stopped brands from investing in social TV campaigns, that make the most of the way we currently watch TV. i.e. with a phone or a laptop in hand. While we wait to see if social TV will ever actually expand beyond this, check out what's being done right now to create a compelling brand experience through social TV.Check into TV adsThis isn't exactly a brand campaign, but it is a great example of a social TV application that is open to brands to use. Viggle works on the concept of offering coupons or other rewards, in return for checking into a TV ad, via a mobile app. It works on audio recognition technology, allowing users to check into TV shows and ads to gain points from various advertisers, as well as the option to use your points to donate to charity. The app has only recently launched on 26 January so it's very early days, but it's easy to see how a concept like this could take of, as it makes the most of the fact that we nearly all have our phone in our hands while watching TV anyway. It incentivises the user to go just a little bit further in order to receive a reward for what they're already doing.Reed : You DecideA slightly different example of a social TV campaign here, as it starts online before moving onto the TV. In January, Reed (a recruitment company in the UK) ran a campaign that allowed users to decide the winner of a competition, which would be the final TV ad broadcast. The website featured 6 shortlisted ads, before the final winner was chosen and broadcast.Coke Polar BowlIn perhaps one of the most high profile examples of a social TV campaign, Coke are taking advantage of their ad slot during the Super Bowl next weekend, to drive users to a website that offered a live, interactive experience. The ad will start by showing the Coke polar bears, followed by a call to action to visit cokepolarbowl.com where you can interact with the bears in real time. As well as animations showing their reaction to the game, they will also be responding to messages sent on Facebook and Twitter, with the option to ask the bears questions. This is going to be one of the biggest tests for social TV, with a huge audience tuning in live, proving just how much interest there is in an interactive TV experience.Old Navy & ShazamUsing the audio technology within Shazam, Old Navy was one of the first brands to create a TV campaign with the app. The campaign was a coupon-based initiative that extended the TV ad. The ad contained a call to action to 'tag' it via Shazam, which would then unlock additional content based on the ad. As well as being able to download the song featured in the ad, they could also buy the outfits from that particular ad, or view longer videos.Honda JazzIn February 2011, Honda launched one of the most innovative social TV ads we'd ever seen. The ad, titled 'This Unpredictable Life' encouraged users to 'catch' various pieces of content from the TV ad, by swiping their iPhone once the app had been installed. The content included the different characters from the ad that you could catch, encouraging you to pay way more attention to a TV ad than you probably had ever done before. The ad experience was extended via mobile once you had caught the characters, with various actions including singing to the characters through your mobile phone to make them dance.Have you seen any other great examples of social TV ads?

A break in a water main in Sulphur near the intersection of Cypress and Hickory streets could have effect a large area of the city into nighttime hours.
John Bruce, director of public works, said the break occurred when crews were performing routine maintenance, and city crews are currently on site attempting to assess the problem.
Bruce said water will be shut off, or severely restricted, in the immediate area of the leak itself into the night house and city wide residents may see lower water pressure than normal.
He said the problem is expected to be fixed sometime tonight, but crews won't know for certain until they are finished assessing the break.

As if worrying about Social Security insolvency wasn't bad enough—is it or isn't it?—a new survey suggests that aging baby boomers may not have the caregiving help they will need in their later years.
The study, by the AARP and the Public Policy Institute, found a precipitous drop in the ratio of caregivers to those needing help, from 7.2 to 1 in 2010 to 2.9 to 1 by the year 2050.
"More than two-thirds of Americans believe they will be able to rely on their families to meet their needs when they need long-term care," Lynn Feinberg, an AARP senior policy analyst and co-author of the report, told the Los Angeles Times. "But this confidence is likely to deflate when it collides with the dramatically shrinking availability of family caregivers in the future."
The problem is one of math: The baby boomers form a population bubble, and as they age, the smaller younger generations will pick up a higher proportion of their care. That helps explain why the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics picks home aides as among the fastest-growing occupations. But even that increase is not going to keep up with the demand, the AARP says.
The AARP report includes policy suggestions from attendees at a 2011 forum on the issue. They recommend fresh guidelines aimed at creating greater public education and awareness; more financial relief; better communication, coordination and collaboration with health care professionals; and a focus on supporting family caregivers, as they're called, in policy initiatives.

Snow Mode with Quadra Lift Issue
My WK2 performed by far better than my 01 wj and 05 wk did i this weekends past snow storm HOWEVER since I was driving in 10"+ snow I had the Jeep in the 2nd setting on the Quadra Lift and as soon as I flipped the 4wd Selector to the "Snow Mode" the jeep dropped to "Normal driving height"
WTF would the jeep in snow mode not remain in the 2nd setting on the lift.
Wouldnt it make sense to drive a little higher up in snow?????
Very confused with the design setting. Any ideas?????
Re: Snow Mode with Quadra Lift Issue
well, as long as your tire hit the ground you don't need to lift your wk2. Can you change the quadra lift settings after you have switched to the "Snow" mode?
Re: Snow Mode with Quadra Lift Issue
No once it was in snow mode, it wouldnt lift. But as soon as I switched back to auto the lift worked fine.
Re: Snow Mode with Quadra Lift Issue
That makes no sense. We want QL mainly to rise above unplowed snow, which we have to do every winter.
Re: Snow Mode with Quadra Lift Issue
In snow mode, I prefer normal ride height to keep the vehicle a bit lower and more stable. Ya got 8" of clearance at NRH.
If it's really deep, I use rock setting, or auto and raise QL if variable.
It's all good.
Re: Snow Mode with Quadra Lift Issue
I was in 16" of unplowed snow, went into snow mode, and raised to Off Road 2 height without a problem, multiple times.
The only related issue I had was that when using the remote start, it lowered back to Normal Ride Height, crushing the snow underneath :)
Using the regular start method, ride height stayed at Off Road 2.
I was AMAZED at how well I got through deep snow without fishtailing at all, even when accelerating hard! I love my WJ, but the WK2 really, really knows how to handle snow.
Re: Snow Mode with Quadra Lift Issue
That is the nanny traction control system that kept you from fishtailing. Too bad I can't turn it all the way off. I would like to go up an icy driveway with out popping it on 4wd
Re: Snow Mode with Quadra Lift Issue
I had a similar experience...wasn't driving but I was navigating out a spot...when I put it in snow mode it dropped the truck back down to normal ride height....strange.
Re: Snow Mode with Quadra Lift Issue
Re: Snow Mode with Quadra Lift Issue
You can raise it back up to off road 2 after it goes into snow as long as you stay slow like under 15 mph.
Re: Snow Mode with Quadra Lift Issue
I dont belive I have a "Problem" with the 4wd or Lift. Just IMHO not a well thought out system.
But I will retry it when it snows again.
ALL IN ALL this jeep probably handled the best of any vehicle I have driving. My JK was awesome and nothing stopped it But the 11 WK just seemed to be in complete control. No fishtailing or lose of control.
Re: Snow Mode with Quadra Lift Issue
So the I started driving through some snow, what happen next was a message that popped up on the evic that said " To maintain your height you have to slow down" not exactly that but of that nature:)...I switched it from Snow to Mud/Sand mode and the lights didn't blink it just kept the height and switched the mode....
I am thinking there might be some sort of a order that things need to occur in ..example; put in mode then adjust height, or maybe vice versa...not sure.... I will play with it some more later.
All in all, I agree this is the best 4x4 I have owned to date.:thumbsup:

I am an elementary school teach, 41 yrs old and I coach 3 seasons worth of sports for both my kids. I also work at the YMCA teaching basketball and soccer to peewee's and midgets (4-8 yrs old). I have been building and customizing bicycles for about 4 years now and was inspired to get back into it after meeting Jim Barnard of the Mucle BIke Museum in Bloomfield CT. He lives about 300 yards from me as the crow flies. This has proved to be an invaluable resource for parts and visual inspiration (the Bikes only). My other hobby is customizing Hot Wheels as I am a 4 time Nationals PRO class 1st place winner. My other Internet handle is 'The Hingeman" as I enjoy building 1/64th scale diecast into "full opening" show specials, complete with candy colors and detailed engines. My bicycle building niche attempts to create customs which hold true to the Hot Rod style while utilizing vintage parts and more current running gear. It should look as good as it rides and ride as good as it looks. Chrome won't get you home! My business dealing have been very good on this board so far and I think I was one of the first 10 people registered here. Eager to help define what this little niche is all about! Thanks, Joe

Is it ok to feed my dog wet cat food with her dry food?

NO! It can kill her. Dogs can not eat cat food. If you want to feed her wet food get dog food.
Lexie answered on 4/29/11. Helpful? / 0
Actually, it is the other way around... cats cannot survive on DOG food alone since it is much lower in protein AND does not have the necessary taurine for a cat. And, it won't kill the cat unless that is all they eat, it doesn't provide proper nutrients for them.
It is perfectly fine to mix some canned cat food with her kibble. Just watch her weight and make sure she is not getting too heavy since the calorie count is much higher than dog food.
We always use canned cat food in our kennel to entice a reluctant eater or to get a dog that is not feeling well to eat their food. Haven't killed one yet!!!

I agree with lexie I have seen lots of dogs get very sick and even almost die from eating cat food. Only mix her food in wet dog food.
Pay Pay answered on 4/29/11. Helpful? / 0
Here's a list. It could make your dog sick if it's the only thing the dog is eating, which is not the case in what you asked.
It just has more fat and calories as someone already mentioned.
I think your dog would be fine with it now and then. Are you looking for some fishy stuff. I think Wellness as some fish based cans and other brand dogfoods. Google fish based dogfoods and see what pops up in your area.
Iknow there is some other brands bc all my dogs love fish! and sometimes I buy huge pink salmon cans on sale for them :)It's great for the coat

As a snack once in a great while, cat food won't hurt. However, it can if you feed it as a regular part of her diet.

My dogs love to eat Solid Gold Cat Food! No, I don't feed it as a meal. I have fed them a whole sample bag before many times before and nothing has ever happened to them.
The Solid Gold dog food and cat food labels look about just the same to me.
I feed my dogs a Prey Model Raw Diet, so they do get a lot of protein.
Member 930032 answered on 4/30/11. Helpful? / 0
I might do that in a pinch, but would use a wet dog food (or cook something up myself) if I were going to do so every day.
Libby answered on 4/30/11. Helpful? / 1
I'm agreeing with the majority that it will do no harm as a snack. It is much fattier than dog food, which might give a dog digestive issues, or could even set off a case of pancreatitis if fed in large quantities.
Cat food also has taurine supplemented as a essential amino acid for cats. I've seen studies that suggest that taurine should be in dog food as well. It is considered to be good for the heart.
So, cat food for dogs is OK for a treat. Dog food for cats is a no-no, though. Not enough of the proper nutrients that cats require.
Darby - C.G.C. answered on 5/2/11. Helpful? / 1
Both dog and cat foods are made for the needs of each animal. Therefore, if you feed food not formulated for the animal, you are asking for problems. Once in awhile if the dog happens to eat cat food by accident, it is ok. But I would not make a habit of giving it to them.

Why would you give your dog cat food if it's a dog???? It's like giving a cat dog food or a fish bird food or vice versa. It makes no sense. Each animal should eat the food specified for them and their needs, period!!!

Is definatley NOT a good idea..
That's why they make seprate foods, cats and dogs are two completely different species and require different feeding diets.
Gia answered on 7/1/11. Helpful? / 0
NO!!!!! you would kill your dog, and he/she could get really ill, and could possibly die. If you want to feed your dog wet food,try dog wet food. But when you start your dog on wet food you will have to brush his/her teeth more often than if you feed him/her dry food. And wet dog food has more fat in it. I would only use it is your dog is not eating dry food.
Romeo answered on 10/23/11. Helpful? / 0
Cat food can make a dog sick have the runs and if you give the dog this ONLY well I don't think it is a good idea and why on earth would you do this yes a dog will eat it they also will eat (SOME DO) their own poop, now knowing this would (IF YOUR DOG DID)you have your dog eating it's own poop just because your dog likes it, there is nothing good in it for the dog and cat food I feel the same about it, the only thing I have heard to give dog food or cat food to that is not for the animal is a chicken and even so not on a regular bases.
THIS IS A BAD IDEA if you wan to give a extra on their food then you need to buy either canned dog food or they have a gravy made for the dog food but I don't give my dogs either regularly it gives them the runs.

I noticed that sometimes our dog sneaks dry cat food. If he has lots he throws up and its gross to clean up. He is pretty old but really sweet and good. I just give a firm "NO" and clap my hands hard a few times and he knows he is busted. Then i redirect his attention to something else or to his own food. Maybe calling a local vet and asking them would be a good idea.

5 speed swap in the works
I am in the process of picking up a 5 speed complete swap kit from a 2000 323 convertible to put in my 325i. The kit has 130k and includes everything except a shift nob. This is: driveshaft, trans, clutch, flywheel, pedal assembly, clutch assembly, every nut and bolt. My auto trans is fine at the moment, but my plans are to have this trans sitting and ready to go whenever the auto decides to finally give out. It's my ultimate preventative maintenance investment thus far
. I'll be replacing the trans mount bushings, guibo, and CSB, clutch, flywheel (what else? keep reading >). I just want some advice and guidance in certain areas. I am well versed on the mechanical aspects of the swap (although I would like more info on how to replace the clutch/flywheel), but still a little unclear about the electrical components. I am coming from a GM auto trans (which I heard is easier?) something about being able to jump pins? Would I be able to theoretically turn on my car and drive around with no reprogramming? Also which specific parts are good to get for the shift linkage? I know this last question is heavily opinionated, but which clutch/flywheel combo do you recommend? At this point in time, I am looking at going with the F1 Gripforce Stage II clutch/flywheel combo. Please post your combos with your personal opinions regarding your replacements. I.e. Durability, Quality, Feel, Noise, Recommendations, etc.

London, April 11 (PTI): A midwife has apologised for telling Savita Halappanavar, who had a miscarriage and died later, that she could not have an abortion in Ireland because it was a "Catholic country".
Ann Maria Burke admitted she made the remark to the Indian dentist in University Hospital Galway just days before she died of septicaemia.
According to Irish media reports, the senior midwife said she made the remarks while trying to explain to Savita the rules of the country after the 31-year-old dentist said she was Hindu and she would have ended her pregnancy in her home country.
"I did mention it's a Catholic country," Burke told Galway coroner Ciaran MacLoughlin. "I didn't mention it in a hurtful context. It was in a conversation we had." She added: "I'm sorry that I said it."
Savita was 17 weeks pregnant when she was admitted to the hospital on October 21 last year with back pain. She delivered a dead baby girl three days later and was rushed to intensive care within hours of the delivery.
Savita died on October 28 of a heart attack caused by septicaemia. Her death ignited debates on abortion laws in Ireland with people calling for a change.
The inquest, in its third day at Galway courthouse, has heard claims that consultant obstetrician Dr Katherine Astbury also made the "Catholic" remark to Savita and her husband Praveen.
Dr Astbury, who was questioned yesterday, has denied using the phrase but admitted there were system failures in her care. She also warned of a lack of legal clarity for doctors treating pregnant women who suffer health risks.
The consultant obstetrician insisted that when she told the dentist she could not abort the baby, she meant: "In this country it is not legal to terminate a pregnancy on grounds of poor prognosis of the foetus."
She also referred to the Irish Medical Council guidelines on abortion, which refer to terminating a pregnancy if there is an immediate threat to the mother's life.
Asked by the coroner if there was confusion over the interpretation of the guidelines, she replied: "There's no law to tell you what is permitted or not permitted."

Collinson FX market Commentary: August 28, 2013
Geopolitical events overwhelmed Central Bank activity and daily economic releases. US equities crashed with the impending military action against the Syrian regime. Chemical weapons may prove the trigger for the West to finally act to prevent a genocidal nation destroying its own people.
This has overshadowed the fixation with Central Bank activity and overwhelmed equity markets, who do not like war. Currencies remained steady with the EUR trading 1.3380 and the GBP 1.5540. US Consumer Confidence rose and the Richmond Fed Activity Index also beat expectations providing solid improvement in economic data releases but these were largely ignored due to international military activity.
The Case-Shiller Home Price Index also booked gains of over 12% and economic conditions continue to improve increasing the likelihood of tapering next month.Turmoil internationally does not assist risk sentiment and the AUD has now slipped below 0.9000.
The KIWI's recent weakness is manifesting, trading below 0.7800. Action aplenty in the Middle East has added further variables into the mix and markets hate uncertainty!
Collinson FX market Commentary: August 27, 2013
The Feds tapering program is again under scrutiny with data dependence the determinant and deteriorating economic reports conflicting with the introduction. Durable Goods Orders fell 7.3%, more than expected, and does not bode well for the Feds perception of the economic recovery and thus the reduction of QE Infinity.
The Housing data tonight will be a litmus test and any erosion of confidence may delay further talk of reduction in stimulus. The Dallas Fed Activity reported an improvement but economic data will be crucial during this week.
The EUR remained steady at 1.3375 and the GBP 1.5575. Commodities continue to drift and weakening trade data in NZ has confirmed a growth in Imports without any corresponding rise in Exports. The extension of credit and a booming Housing Market may be driving the consumer but reversing recently improving trade numbers.
The KIWI trades 0.7830 and below 0.8700 in the cross with the AUD. The AUD has held 0.9000 and awaits directional impetus from the US Central Bank.

Couple survive 'scary' late-night attack
By SUSAN EVANS
NICKTOWN - Allen W. Kirsch was asleep in his rural home at 1:30 a.m. Thursday when a masked man turned on the light, stuck a gun in his face and began cursing.
That was the start of a violent and nightmarish assault on Kirsch and his companion, Michelle M. Konwinski. Three men bound and terrorized them, then robbed their Duman Road home in Barr Township.
The home-invasion attackers even turned on a neighbor's dog, muzzling it with tape.
"We were terrified," Konwinski said. "It was like something you'd see in a movie.
"I've never prayed so hard in my life," she said.
Kirsch, 66, and Konwinski, 39, were not seriously injured.
But one of the thieves gained access to a basement safe and removed what troopers referred to as "a large amount of cash,'' along with a gun collection.
Now, police are searching for the robbers - one using the nickname "Smiley" and the other called "Pumpkin Head." Even seasoned officers are shocked at the ferocity of the crime in the normally quiet northern Cambria County area.
"It's very scary that something like that would happen up there," said Trooper Steve Barto.
Pennsylvania State Police are investigating and Thursday issued the following information:
nOne suspect is described as a white male; 5 feet, 6 inches tall; about 200 pounds; with short brown hair. He was wearing a gray face mask with a white stripe and was referred to as "Smiley."
n The other is described as a white male; 6 feet tall; about 155 pounds; blue eyes, wearing a red face mask and referred to as "Pumpkin Head."
In a telephone interview Thursday afternoon with The Tribune-Democrat, Kirsch said he still is stunned by the hour-long assault.
"I would never have believed that something like this would happen around here," he said.
Kirsch said they saw only two of the three men because the third was moving about in the basement and around the house, and taking things outside, while the other two tied up the couple and then stayed nearby.
Kirsch and Konwinski said they did not know the men.
"They had us tied up, and it left marks around my ankles," Konwinski said. "Both had masks on, and the third one in the basement we couldn't see."
They described the robbers as rude and crude, using plenty of four-letter words.
"After we were awake, the guy asked us, 'Didn't you hear your (expletive) dog bark,' " Konwinski said. "They were very unpolite and nasty."
She said they had heard the neighbor's dog bark, but paid little attention. It wasn't until later, when they found the dog taped up, that she realized what the robber meant.
This happened in a very small rural town in west central PA on Thursday, July 28, about 30 miles north of where I live.
P95Carry, you probably know this general region. This would be a good story to share with your friends you were talking about in your thread, "Shooters, who don't or won't carry."
After reading this, my wife finally understands the necessity of owning and knowing how to use a firearm, and she now wants to take a pistol shooting & safety course. It really shook her up, because even compared to our own relatively small town, this town is tiny, quiet, everybody knows everyone, etc.

Gold edged higher on Thursday, supported by central bank purchases and a weaker US dollar as European leaders raised the possibility that a bailout deal for Greece was imminent.
Gold, up nearly 11 per cent this year on the back of the US' efforts to stimulate its economy, has been hovering around $US1730 for most of this week as investors focus on whether the United States will avoid a fiscal crisis.
But expectations of a looming Greek deal with lenders dented the greenback against the euro and aided gold prices. News that Brazil, Kazakhstan and Turkey had all increased their gold holdings also supported sentiment.
The euro rose to a two-week high versus the greenback after news of the possible Greek bailout, making US dollar-priced commodities, such as gold, more attractive to buyers using euro and other currencies.
"The market is lacking direction right now and investors have become increasingly cautious," said Chen Min, an analyst at Jinrui Futures in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen. "The sentiment is mainly supported by concerns about the US 'fiscal cliff', which offsets the easing of geopolitical tension in the Middle East which should have dented gold's safe-haven appeal."
Spot gold edged up 0.2 per cent to $US1731.08 an ounce by 0351 GMT. US gold also gained 0.2 per cent to $US1731.70.
The "fiscal cliff" refers to a $US600 billion tax hike and spending cuts that are due to roll in early next year in the United States, if Congress fails to reach an agreement to avert it. It could trigger another recession and even the Federal Reserve wouldn't be able to cushion its impact.
In the Middle East, Israel and the Islamist Hamas movement ruling the Gaza Strip agreed on Wednesday to an Egyptian-sponsored ceasefire to halt an eight-day conflict that killed 162 Palestinians and five Israelis.
Technical analysis suggested that spot gold is poised to break a resistance at $US1734 per ounce and rise more towards $US1749 during the day, said Reuters market analyst Wang Tao.
Spot silver rose to $US33.43 an ounce, its highest in more than a month, before easing slightly to $US33.38. Silver has risen more than 20 per cent so far this year, leading the precious metals complex and dwarfing gold's gains.
Silver usually tracks moves in gold, but can also be influenced by riskier assets due to its industrial nature.
Technical support could push the metal to $US35.36 in the next four weeks, said Reuters' Wang. "A break above that level will open the way towards $US40.54, the 61.8 per cent Fibonacci retracement on the fall from the record high of $US49.51 to $US26.04," he said.

Business-Focused HR: 11 Processes to Drive Results (e-book)
The SHRMStore has moved its books to an affiliate model with Amazon. Your purchase of this book on SHRM's Amazon store supports the HR profession and SHRM's mission.
The stakes remain the same for organizations and HR leaders, whether we are in a booming or lagging economy--HR professionals must show the value of what they do and build a compelling business case to get other, potentially skeptical, leaders to buy in. Business-Focused HR will provide the tools for HR leaders and people managers across the organization to become more business-focused with the processes that they execute. Senior HR leaders can make the business case to top management, while front-line practitioners can demonstrate the value of what they do to managers on the "shop-room floor."
Having a practical resource that takes HR leaders step-by-step through what the latest research tells us, from best practices in execution to linking the process directly to business outcomes, is the goal of this book. Ultimately, the aim is for Business-Focused HR to become the guidebook for all HR leaders to enable them to become strategic business partners at all levels and across all functions in their organizations.
This is a PDF-formatted e-book.

Anyhow, the scent of the product was really nice, but the sample wasn't really big enough to get an idea of performance and at that price point, gonna have to say no.3

When President George W. Bush took office, our national debt was $5.768 trillion. By the time Bush left office, it had nearly doubled, to $10.626 trillion. So Bush's record on deficit spending was not good at all: During his presidency, the national debt rose by an average of $607 billion a year. How does that compare to Obama? During Obama's presidency to date, the national debt has risen by an average of $1.723 trillion a year or by a jaw-dropping $1.116 trillion more, per year, than it rose even under Bush.say what you say good old boys. the fact still remains that a black man runs this country and is doing it better than his former white predecessors. No more pretending ur not racists. Everything was honkey dorey 12yrs ago when the man that put us in this hole was white. Now the blackman couldn't right the ship fast enuff (4 years) ur true colors come out. Ya'll down south white dudes kill me. Lol! Or u would if u could. Lol! We want our country back!!! Now u see how the indians felt. The child must pay for the sins of their father. Ur forefathers stole the land now it's time to reap wut u sow or ur fathers sowed. Famous words from the rapper Armageddon" my squads hard and far from Puritan. Robbing and killing men like I'm proud to be American." Jusr chaps ur ass to see a blackman running this country. U southerners are stuck in the 50s.
And none of this even takes into account Obamacare, which the Congressional Budget Office says would increase spending by more than $2 trillion in its real first decade (2014 to 2023) and which, even under very rosy projections, the CBO says would increase the national debt by $341 billion by the end of 2019.

Behind the Scenes Success Stories
(L-R) Sergio Alfaro, President, and Flavio Morales, Executive Vice President of BIG VIDA Entertainment.
As we embark on the road to the 2014 NCLR ALMA Awards, we would like to for you to meet two very important members of the team, Sergio Alfaro and Flavio Morales from BIG VIDA Entertainment, a Latino-led production company. Both Sergio and Flavio who served as executive producers on last year's show and return in these roles this year, exemplify the hopes that we have for the younger generations of Latinos. Sergio and Flavio prove that Latinos can, and will be, successful in the entertainment industry when they are given the chance to tell their stories both in front of, as well as behind the camera.
We recently asked Sergio and Flavio a series of questions that we would like to share with you:
Sergio, we know you started your career helping produce live concerts with artists like U2, Celine Dion and the Black Eyed Peas. Can you tell us how you decided this was what you wanted to do and how you got started in the industry?
Music has always been in my family. My grandfather had a band and as a kid I always would sneak instruments from the music room and try to play them. As for how I got started, I was lucky enough to begin my career with Ken Ehrlich via an introduction by David Wader. As we all know Ken Ehrlich is one of the greatest live event producers ever. Ken's right had man Ron Basile took me under his wing and between the two of them we traveled the world working on projects together for over ten years.
What is your most memorable experience or show from early in your career?
I'd have to say the opening of the Superdome in New Orleans after Katrina. The silence in the arena was absolute, then Green Day and U2 started playing "the Saints are coming" and the roar of the crowd was incredible! People were crying, singing and there was a sense of unity amongst the thousands of people unlike anything I've ever experienced. I still get emotional just thinking about that moment.
Flavio, you started your career in media at places like LATV and mun2. How did you first get involved with the industry?
I started at 17 as a senior in high school producing a public access show with my brothers and my friend Richard Estrada called ILLEGAL interns. We played music from The Smiths, Depeche Mode, techno and then evolved to rock en Español. We also covered the Chicano art scene in East LA. It was this independent DIY style that helped me learn to produce regardless of the budget limitations. It was also the start of what is now bilingual TV.
What advice would you give young people hoping to break into the production side of entertainment?
GO TO SCHOOL! I had to learn the hard way and now appreciate the fact that higher education establishes relationships that are key in entering the job market. There also needs to be an understanding that entertainment is not like any other profession, nothing is guaranteed and you can never take no for an answer.
What's the best piece of advice that was given to you that you still carry with you today? SERGIO: You're only as good as your last show!
FLAVIO: Last man standing WINS.
As a brand new production company, how did you end up working on the NCLR ALMA Awards?
I worked on the ALMA Awards 14 years ago and again 12 years ago, so I was not a stranger to the NCLR family. Flavio had the idea of going after it so we did and after convincing NCLR and NBC of our abilities, we got the job. We feel we brought something new to the ALMA's being a Latino-led company and felt a sense of honor and pride. We got the chance to prove ourselves not only to the community but to our families. We walked away from last year's show proud.
What was your favorite part about producing the 2013 NCLR ALMA Awards?
SERGIO: Tough question, I had two.Aloe Blacc was great on so many levels.His song had not saturated the market yet nor had it been put on every other award show, we were the first.The "I am American" piece was beautiful.So often Latinos are seen as foreigners when in fact we are second and third generation Americans.The photos during that piece while the national anthem was sung showed how we Latinos are your doctors, teachers, nurses, lawyers and not just your gardeners and second hand cooks.
FLAVIO: Seeing people's reactions in the theatre once the show was over. People could not believe how fast it went and how they wanted to see more. At the after party, meeting so many NCLR members that night and them thanking us for elevating the production and hearing them say over and over "you guys got the mission, you get it".
As a Latino-led production company, what insight or perspective do you contribute to the show?
SERGIO: Real sensibility.You have to be a part of a community in order to understand it.
FLAVIO: The ALMAs are the only nationally televised awards show focused on US Latinos, our job is to highlight and create a one-of-a-kind platform. That POV (point of view) can never be lost.
Do you think it's important to have more mission-focused award shows?
Of course, we just need to continue to find creative ways of expressing the mission while entertaining.
BIG VIDA Entertainment is dedicated to creating content in English and Spanish that serves the fast-growing U.S. Latino and international markets. Launched in 2013 by John Ehrhard, CEO of Pink Sneakers Productions, BIG VIDA is led by experienced TV producers Sergio Alfaro, President, and Peabody Award winner Flavio Morales, Executive Vice President.

Discussion in 'Other Hoops Talk' started by detteam, Feb 28, 2009.
Those stats were provided FREE of charge.
That's usually the way the scoring works on these brackets. I'm almost certain it's the default.
so is this: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How is Michigan winning this game? They are getting outmuscled something fierce. I want to change my pick.
I still can't figure out why I'm rooting for those suckers. Uggh.
Their defense has been tough...but still they got the second half to go down...I am rooting for them, but Sims needs to appear and help out.
Villanova lift your game! My whole half of the bracket depends on you!!
It might have something to do with that Oglesby dude jacking up insane 3s from 40 feet out with two guys draped on him (that and Clemson missing a mess of shots in close). Who'd you pick TaS? I had Clemson cause I think the Big Ten sucks ('cept for MSU) and Michigan might not even have gotten in had they not crushed weak Iowa in the Big Ten Tourney. But now, all the games in progress are looking ugly for me.
Michigan had a 16 pt lead with 15 mins left in game...let see if they can hold on...I picked them to win as my sentimental first round pick.
Why the hell does CBS offer 4 channels if they not gonna show the game? They cut in on the game and i have missed the last 19 minutes!!Is this everywhere?
Ok..i have to root AGAINST Blue now...sorry 2:00 left
Go Nova! Go for the kill!!
wow......way to go BLUE! F u ACC!!!!!!!!!!!hahahahahhahahaahahah
Looks like most of us (except the prof and Hq) took Michigan to win in the first round...and lose to the sooners in the second...
Those are the default numbers.
I'm actually okay with my employer's basketball team winning that game (after all, I didn't have Clemson getting past Oklahoma anyway); and I like that Manny Harris -- good ball player. But really, Clemson's inability to make bunnies in this game (forget about their futility from beyond the arc) was astounding! If they'd converted just a fraction of the opportunities they had inside they'd have won comfortably.
I took them because I didn't think much of Clemson. Michigan beat some really good teams this year. I don't expect them to beat Oklahoma, but I will not be all that surprised if they do.
Unless Akron zips Gonzaga , I still see a 13-3 start!
You could pick 7 more correct than me in the first round, but if I have one more Final Four team than you, than I still beat you by a point.
That's not much to brag about. If you took all the higher seeds you'd also be 13-3. When your record is better than the 'best seeds' theory, you know you're doing well.

I'm a 52 year old Grandma to 2 darling little boys, (2 & 4 years old), with another expected in April. The boys, their mom; (my 23 yr old daughter), and my husband of 14 years live with me, or me with them, lol.
I'm a recent Below The Knee Amputee from a motorcycle accident Nov. 08. I'm just getting into blogging. Since I babysit my grandsons while my daughter works, working from home is right up my alley, so to speak. :) I was a Nurse before the accident, but that job is out of the question right now. Just got my prosthetic leg in July, so I'm learning to walk again.
I love motorcycling. Even after the accident; in which I was a passenger, I still want to get back on a bike and ride. But I think I'll stick with just riding my own as opposed to being a passenger.

Historian at Demjanjuk trial says escapee guards were shotBreaking News
Munich University historian Dieter Pohl was giving evidence for a second day at the trial where Demjanjuk, 89, is accused of being an accessory to 27,900 murders at the Sobibor death camp in Nazi-occupied Poland in 1943.
Pohl detailed how Nazi Germany recruited Soviet prisoners of war to wear the SS uniform and carry out killings during the Holocaust.
Asked what happened if they tried to stop the work and flee after seeing the death camps, Pohl said they could expect to be executed as an example.
Yet a significant number did run away, Pohl said, and not all were executed after being caught. Some were given given military prison terms or incarcerated in concentration camps instead, he explained.
Pohl described how an SS base at Trawniki in occupied Poland trained 4,000 to 5,000 ethnic Germans from Eastern Europe and POWs to do SS work. They were dubbed the Trawniki men.
In one case, two Trawniki men and five inmates joined together to escape from Sobibor. The Nazis caught both Trawniki men and one inmate and executed them.
'I'm not Hitler'
As Pohl spoke, Demjanjuk lay on a stretcher with his mouth open and a trademark blue cap over his face.
Throughout the trial so far, the normally chatty former Ohio factory worker has not spoken, though he was animated on Tuesday outside the courtroom, quipping to a German television team, "What's up? I'm not Hitler!"
Pohl said the Trawniki men also helped in mass shootings of Jewish prisoners judged to be too sick to work or be transported by rail.
Prosecutors at the Demjanjuk trial have produced what they say is Demjanjuk's SS personnel record, but have no witnesses who remember seeing the Ukraine-born man at Sobibor.
Trawniki men volunteered to collaborate with the enemy, according to Pohl, after seeing their fellow Soviets die in the atrocious conditions and starvation of German-run POW camps.
"Not much is known about the behavior of individual Trawniki men," said Pohl, while adding that there were differences between those who identified entirely with the Nazis and others who quietly passed news or warnings to inmates.

Can I have reduction of nasal bone plus Septoplasty for my broken nose after 2 reduction done for different fractures 2011&2012?
Doctor Answers 4
Reduction of nasal bone plus septoplasty after broken nose
Yes it is possible to reduce the nasal bone and undergo septoplasty at the same time for multiple broken noses. It is best to seek out a board certified ENT/ facial plastic surgeon with extensive experience in rhinoplasty and revision rhinoplasty for best functional and cosmetic results. Look for a surgeon who is dedicated a significant portion of their practice to nasal surgery. For many examples, please see the link below to our rhinoplasty photo gallery

Abundant fresh water has long been part of New Zealand's agriculture competitive advantage. Now there are plans to better manage our water resources to grow the economy. The Government's goal is for exports to increase from 30 to 40 per cent of GDP by 2025. With the primary sector pencilled in to do the heavy lifting, water management will play an important role.
The blueprint is a 2010 New Zealand Institute of Economic Research (NZIER) report. It says government investment in regional water projects could mean 340,000 hectares of new irrigation. That is enough to boost exports by $1.4 billion a year by 2018, rising to $4 billion a year by 2026. Dairy, livestock, crops, dairy support and horticulture are all part of the mix.
In the 2013 Budget, the Government allocated $80 million to fund regional irrigation projects. At the time Primary Industries Minister Nathan Guy announced plans to invest up to a further $400 million in irrigation schemes with the goal of encouraging further third-party investments.
Guy Ensor, who manages BNZ's rural water infrastructure business, says water infrastructure is expensive to build. He points to irrigation projects in Canterbury where, over the years, farmers have spent $2 billion.
Though that's a large sum, the return on investment is significant. Ensor says irrigation schemes can increase farm output by as much as two or two and a half times. And delivering water means getting four to four and a half times as much production out of each kilogram of nitrogen used - a huge saving for farmers.
The aim with most irrigation projects is to harvest water during spring peak flows and store it for dry periods. It's not quite that simple: Ensor says there needs to be a balance between social, environmental and economic factors. For the social component, planners need to get local communities on-side before embarking on large scale water projects. That task is made easier when storage lakes can be used for recreation.
The environmental angle isn't just piety; New Zealand's agricultural exports trade off the back of our nation's clean, green image. Storing water helps ecosystems by reducing stress when there are lower levels of rainfall.
It also takes pressure off aquifers and lowland rivers. And importantly, more efficient water use means less nutrients are leached from the land into nearby waterways.
Guy says work is under way on a national policy statement to deal with the wider issues of water infrastructure projects.
Making better use of water isn't just about building storage. Guy says technology has an important role to play as farmers embrace precision agricultural techniques.
Until the early 1990s, New Zealand farmers mainly used simple flood irrigation. Each farmer would have a turn at taking water from a river. They would take as much as they could - partly because they didn't know if there would be any left the next time their turn came.
Ensor says they would use far more than they needed and that could pull nutrients from the soil.
Now farmers map the soil profile on paddocks and fields to understand how the land holds moisture, then use variable rate irrigation to deliver the right amount.
They use sophisticated software which knows how much needs to fall on each square metre. This generally means spraying from large centre pivots. Water use is metered to maximise efficiency.
The precision agricultural approach uses considerably less water, or as they say in international food circles, the goal is to get "more crop per drop".
More recent irrigation projects use water piped under pressure. This means power isn't needed to turn the spray arms on the pivots - which is good for the environment. It also means less water is lost through leaks. More importantly, it means water can be spread over a greater area driving more production.
Ensor says one development he'd like to see is a new approach to longer-term resource consents so the cost of water infrastructure projects can be spread over the life of the asset. He says it is difficult to make some projects pay over, say, 30 years. This has led to scaling-down and less efficient projects.
Ensor says a longer time horizon, over say more than one generation, would lead to even greater benefits for the New Zealand economy.
