Stay away from someone who lives with us
So I just moved back in with my parents. While I was gone my Grandpa moved in. He is a grumpy old man to say the least, convinced Veda is a coyote and belongs outside. He's old and grew up in a time and country where all dogs belonged outside and were used for work only, not a part of the family, etc.
Our older dog Jack has been smacked and kicked by Grandpa enough he knows to stay out of his way and ignore him now. Veda doesn't. When he comes out of his room, I have to hold her back to keep her away from him. We put up gates to keep Veda and Grandpa separated throughout the house but if he needs to use the kitchen or whatever that doesn't really work. I can't always be there when he decides to come out of wherever he's been at the time and that worries me. He kicked Veda for the first time the other day (because "this GD coyote" was in his way) and I nearly smacked him. I've already asked him to just ignore her and if she's doing anything that's bothering him to just let me know. He forgets things and also chooses to ignore other things so I don't really know what to do :confused:
Is there any way to train my puppy to stay away from him? I feel like I'm constantly distracting her or holding her back to keep her away.
Have you talked to your parents about how you feel and what is happening? What is their thoughts on the matter. it might help if they asked your grandpa to respect their home and not kick their dog.
Being old or growing up in another time is not an excuse. I say that in the nicest way.:)
EDIT: Sorry I didnt read too well. I see you noted hes forgetful, so maybe some dementia....so Im a little more understanding. But I would still talk to my parents and ask them have a talk with him.
They have... He just doesn't care :( My mom said to just keep doing what I've been doing and do my best to keep her away from him.
I wish grandpa could have a fence around him at all times :(

If moving out isn't an option would you be able to tether her to you?
I stayed with my parents for 3 days a week during nursing school. Even though they love my dogs, asking them to deal with dogs running around all the time was not something I was comfortable doing since they were being so generous as to let me stay there. They have a border collie, so my border collie was allowed loose all the time. My shepherds were a different story. I only had them out when I was out and watching them. If I was at clinical or going out, I would crate them or shut them in my room. It had no ill effects what so ever. It wasn't that they were bad (although one was a puppy) but my male is big and he is just naturally in the way sometimes as well as slightly pushy about being cuddled and played with. Keeping control was the best situation, so he could spend time with his "gramps" without over staying his welcome.
If I were you I would put your dog in a crate when you cant be right there to ensure your grandfather doesn't act inappropriately. I don't know about your dog, but I would not trust my dogs not to react if someone kicked or hit them. A few times might be fine, but my dogs have a line that I would not want to risk someone crossing.
That sounds like a rough situation, but it's great you're looking out for your girl! I kinda doubt there's going to be any change in how your Grandfather acts, so I think the best thing you can do is manage your dog. Is she crate trained? If not, I think working on that right away would be good so you could crate her when you're not around. That way you don't have to worry about her getting in the way. I don't have any experience with this, and I don't know how old Veda is, but I imagine it won't take very long for her to figure out to keep her distance from your Grandfather. Not pleasant for you or for her, but I think dogs have a pretty good sense of who to stick with, and who to avoid. Maybe just reinforcing (with a high value treat) her coming straight to you when she sees Grumpy Grandpa will be enough to keep her out of range. If she's less than a year old, though, I would ignore my suggestion and wait for someone with more knowledge to advise you, because you don't want to set her up for fear and/or aggression. Good luck!
That is super tough. It does sound like shutting the dog in a room or crate might be the only answer until Gramps is ready for a "retirement community" since there is some true getting old memory loss. True, certain regions & time periods were different, but it's hard to not be grumpy at Gramps fornot understanding the way things currently are. If you have any trainers in your area with crate training or Grampa training suggestions, that would be most handy. Wishing you lots of luck!

I would start practicing positive reinforcement on Grandpa. As soon as he sees the dog you will be nice to the old grump and distract him from Veda. Encourage him to pet her and to talk sweet things to her. Have him play with her by letting him throwing a ball for her. As soon as he is cranky you quietly, without any comments, remove yourself and Veda from the situation so he doesn't get a payoff.
I have had clients who practiced this technique on a grouchy neighbor and it worked within two weeks. Maybe he needs more quality time in his early dementia. Old folks can still be aware of their deteriorating brain which can make them sad or grouchy.
Try to appreciate the fact that you exist because of him if he is your biological one.
Tethering her to me would be an option but I like her to be able to go off with my parents dog and play with him, play with my dad (he loves her, it's so cute), get a drink, or go nap somewhere when she wants/needs it. So that's why I've kinda been not wanting to do that :/
She is crate trained. She sleeps in her crate in my room at night and is in there when I go out. My room is in the basement so when I'm down there and she wants to take a nap, that's where she goes. Otherwise the basement is gated off from the upstairs because I've been trying to keep Grandpa and Veda separated as much as possible. Then she likes to sleep in the foyer by the front door.
I never ask my parents to deal with her. If I'm gone and they come home they'll let her out of her crate and hang out with her because they feel bad... even if it's just a couple hours (they've never been big on crate training). If I'm leaving and my parents are home one of them will let me know if she can stay out or not without me asking.
I seriously doubt my grandpa will change his ways/thoughts about the dogs... his "playing" with Jack is stepping on his toes and he'll do it 2 minutes after he smacked him! Ugh, I just don't understand it. His wife always had dogs but was forced to keep them outside when he was home, poor things.
wolfy dog I will try your suggestion. I hope it helps! Veda also starts her "Positive Puppy" training classes this Saturday so I'll see if her trainer has any advice.
I'm also afraid that me keeping her from him constantly will have some sort of negative effect on her in the future with elderly people... also afraid that if I let her "learn her lesson" by going to him every chance she gets the same thing will happen.
Veda will be 15 weeks old on Saturday.
I would puppy proof an area of the house for your pup while your not there...or get the gates that attach to the kennel so she can move about. I would try to keep her out of harms way aka Gramps way. And remember one day when she's big and confident she may try to retaliate against your gramps :|

A little seed has sprouted into potentially millions of dollars for Brian and Corin Mullins of Sechelt. Wednesday night's episode of the Dragons Den on CBC television saw the local entrepreneurs sign a deal with Boston Pizza billionaire Jim Treliving to market and distribute their Holy Crap cereal.
The cereal contains buckwheat, hemp hearts and chia seeds, which have been found to lower blood sugar, blood pressure and cholesterol. The Mullins were looking for $120,000 for 20 per cent share of their company and Treliving jumped at the opportunity.

So it is not the best video in the world but is this robbing, or just a busy hive.
So it is not the best video in the world but is this robbing, or just a busy hive.
It looks like you have young bees doing orientation flights not robbing.
I don't have the most experience, and the video is not ideal, as you mentioned...
I have seen my hives look like that and it is NOT robbing.
I have become convinced that my weakest hive is being robbed. How? A lot more traffic than normal. Bees coming into the landing area, in a circular, buzzing, pattern. Bees in the limited opening, fighting with each other.
So, again, based on my newbie experience, what I would suggest is limiting the opening of your hive to something much smaller, and then observe for these things that I have mentioned.
I think Michael Bush has said that a good way to being able to tell if your hive is being robbed is to put up a robber screen, and see if robbers arrive and are trying to get in.
Looks very much like an orientation flight to me.
Don't be afraid your life will end. Be afraid that it will never begin.
Thanks, there was just way more bees in front of this one than my other hive. Glad to see so many new bees

Mortgage Payoff Progress for June 2012 with Chart
It's time for an update on our mortgage payoff progress. As a reminder – My wife and I purchased our first home back in February of 2010. Since then, we have been working hard to reduce our mortgage principal and payoff our mortgage early.
We have a conventional, fixed-rate 15-year mortgage. Our goal is to pay it off our mortgage in less than ten years.
As of June 30, 2012, we have made 28 regular monthly mortgage payments. We have also made several additional principal-only payments.
Our mortgage payment is drafted from our primary checking on the first day of each month. Additional principal-only payments are made throughout each month, as we earn additional income and find ways to decrease budgeted-for expenses.
Here is our most recent chart –
The chart shows two percentages.
The blue percentage is how much I still owe – the balance.
The red percentage is how much I have reduced – the paid.
Each month, a little bit more of our regular monthly payment goes towards principal and a little less goes towards interest. Right now, the split is roughly 56.5/43.5. It will not be long before the percentage going towards interest is below 40%!. We are still sending extra, principal-only micro-payments. (Unlike credit card companies, our mortgage provider does not apply micro-payments throughout the month. Instead, all payments are processed on a single day. However, we send them in, throughout the month, because we like a "hands-on" approach to debt reduction. Being mindful, daily, helps to keep us motivated and focused.)
This chart does not represent how much of my house I actually own. It simply reflects how much of our mortgage balance we have paid.
We have made 28 regular payments and have lived in the house for a little more than two years. Our contractual remaining term is 12 years and 8 months, but our actual remaining term is 12 years and 3 months. We have reduced the length of our mortgage by 5 months!
View all post related to our mortgage payoff progress.
Your hard work shows how a few extra payments can drastically change the length of your mortgage and save on all that dratted interest. It is hard work but it sure has visible rewards. Congrats!!
That's a fantastic achievement! Unfortunately for us, it'll be a long time before we reach a similar percentage in our payments. I've been lurking a while and wanted to ask – do you use any software to make the pie chart showing how much you have paid off? I use a spreadsheet to keep track of our payments and slowly reducing principal, but being excel formula illiterate, I am unsure how to make the calculation for the chart. The visual is definitely much more appealing than the table!
Good reach, thanks for the info.
Well done.. this is great to see! A personal question I know but out of interest, what age (roughly) will you and your wife be when you pay off your mortgage in full if all goes to plan?

Even if they could remember who won, it wouldn't matter.
What did and still does matter, says Lisa Carrington, was that she'd shown real balls for the first time; quite an achievement for an 11-year-old girl - a tiny, no-name cadet from the Ohope Surf Club's B-team at that.
The surf on Taranaki's Oakura Beach had been pretty wild that day, but she hadn't hesitated - well, not much anyway - when it came to her turn to race.
"I was looking out, thinking, 'we have to go out there'," says Carrington. "It was scary."
Several bigger girls had already refused to enter the water and, of the others, few had made it past the breakers.
Coach Bevan Porter came over for a pep talk.
"It was pretty big out there and a few girls had been smashed, but I just kept telling her she could do this. Just time your run, get round the buoy and hit the wave.
Do it and get out."
Actually, there was never any doubt she'd try, if only to avoid the jibes she'd get from her two older brothers. Carrington gripped her kneeboard tightly, waited for the gun, and took off. As she was preparing to head back in everyone on shore took an anxious breath.
"This set [of waves] just popped up behind her," says Porter, "big waves, tonnes of water, and she dropped down on to one. She looked so tiny, then when it broke her whole board flipped up ..."
"I'd shut my eyes and was hoping for the best," says Carrington. "That was a hairy moment, but I still felt safe in the water, it's how I'd grown up and I was racing, it's what you have to do. You can't play it safe if you want to win but it was good to know that even at that age I had the balls to do it."
As ever, her mother, Glynis Carrington, was there to watch.
"She admitted she'd been frightened, but I was never going to tell her not to try. It gave her courage, I knew there was plenty of help around if anything happened. It was still a challenge, it took her out of her comfort zone and to the point between playing safe and facing your fears."
Coach Porter was proud of his young charge. "She wasn't freaked out at all. All she said was, 'oh, that was intense'. That was when I realised this girl was something special."
The first hint the rest of us got came a few years later when she won her first canoeing world title in August 2011.
Sure, she'd won and that's obviously great - not to mention unprecedented - but after seeing her in action on the television all anyone wanted to talk about was her shoulders: "Did you see her guns? Um, who is she?"
It isn't often a world champion pops up from nowhere. Or Ohope, for that matter.
But sport was always going to be Lisa's thing; the Carringtons are like that. Parents Patrick and Glynis sprinted in the summer, played rugby or netball in winter and still coach, while her brothers, Shaun and Brett, were already winning surf lifesaving medals by the time their sister discovered her competitive streak.
She was 8 when they moved from Opotiki to Ohope, with the beach as a backyard. Water safety was an obvious concern, so the parents enlisted their brood at the local surf club.
The boys thrived, hitting the water as often as possible to train and play. Little Lisa was never far behind.
"She was only a little girl and very young, but without her even realising it," says Glynis, "she was training really hard. Lisa's always loved the water and she had this huge capacity for work, it didn't matter how puffed she was she kept on going, and there's no way the boys could do anything without her wanting to do it too."
Her drive was reinforced at home. "We have this family ethos: 'If you're going to do something, do it as well as you can and see it through.' We were lucky she had so many good local role models as well."
Yet few watching her in those early years would have seen a champion in waiting.
"I went through the age groups and did okay," says Carrington. "I won a couple of medals but it wasn't as if I was awesome or anything."
In fact, it looked like her best prospects might lay with netball as a wing-attack-cum-centre, especially when in 2004 she was selected to join a Bay of Plenty squad that was leaving to train at an Australian academy of sport, her first overseas trip.
Unfortunately for the Ferns, Carrington's growth spurt spluttered early, but her ready turn of speed proved invaluable in surf lifesaving's flag racing and she began showing real ability on the surf ski.
Physically, she was the whole package. But to rise above the pack she needed to master the subtleties of technique and her parents took every opportunity to get her help.
In 2006, after hearing champion Ironman and four-time Olympic gold medallist Ian Ferguson had a bach "over the hill" at Lake Rotoehu, her father got on the phone to ask if his daughter and her surf club teammate, Jaimee Lovett, could get a few lessons. It turned out to be a genius move.
"She was a natural," says Ferguson. "People think paddling is simple, but it's not just about using your hands and arms, you're twisting your whole body, you're feeling the water. It's the difference between 2D and 3D, and she showed she had the flow from the start."
Then there was the attitude he's seen in all successful surf lifesavers, a sport where you can be stronger, fitter and faster than everyone else on the beach but if you catch the wrong wave your most hopeless opponent will still beat you.
"That kind of thing teaches you to be humble," says Ferguson. "You learn how to win but you also learn how to lose, and she has that, too. She never seems to panic or talk things up, or down for that matter. She just puts her hand up, gets out there and does it. It's part of this hard-wired belief in herself - she is very competitive. That approach eventually won her gold."
Ferguson's help paid off immediately. A few weeks after their first session, the Carrington/Lovett pairing won 10 medals between them at the national sprint championships before going on to claim the under-19 K2 (pairs) titles at the New Zealand Canoe Racing Regatta, a trial for the Youth Olympics to be held in Sydney in January 2007. While Lovett was already in the New Zealand high-performance squad - earmarking her as a future elite athlete - Carrington won both of the K1 (singles) races when they went head to head.
All the same, dedicating herself to this new sport wasn't easy for the 17-year-old. She thrived in a team environment and had a social scene based around playing netball for Whakatane High School.
But once her newfound abilities threatened to deliver national honours, netball had to go. "That was hard, especially with all the training I was doing on my own. At that age you want to be hanging out with your friends, having a great time, so yeah ... But my friends were great, they still are, they understand sport. So even if I wasn't going to all the parties, we hung out when we could."
The closest she got to her Year 13 ball was a few tired and emotional text messages from her friends. It did help, though, that she was wearing the black singlet and competing in the Czech Republic at the time. And that she'd discovered a whole new thrill in being named in a national representative team.
That confidence shot allowed her to think she might get quite good at this. "And I'd never raced internationally before, so that was cool to be part of, even if I may not have appreciated the places we were travelling to at that age. And I think it was the best time to see how it felt to be in a New Zealand team without any big expectations or pressure."
And to think she'd been canoeing for only a year.
Everything got more serious in 2008 when she moved up to Auckland and away from her family. "That was hard, it was my first move away from family, my friends had gone to university in Otago or Christchurch and it was a wee bit intimidating joining an established training group with people like Steve Ferguson [son of Ian] and Ben Fouhy. I was the youngest and I still hadn't proved myself. I've lived here ever since, but I'm still not an Aucklander."
Jafa or not, Carrington had to knuckle down as the pressure rose. "When I started it was about getting out there with no idea how I was going to place, but when you join the open teams you have to get results to get funding, and then, eventually, the Olympics come up for grabs."
A bronze alongside her new offsider and longtime surf lifesaving opponent, Teneale Hatton, at a world cup meet in Hungary in June 2009 was followed by a seventh-place finish at the world champs two months later, but the last thing she needed came the very next year when her sport's association and Ian Ferguson, its greatest Olympic champion, went to war.
"I was helping Lisa at the time, but then something at the top of [Canoe Federation New Zealand] went wrong and basically I wasn't re-employed," says Ferguson. "So her career became all about her new coach [Gordon Walker] and you'd have to say everything has worked out in the long run. But I'll be following her career forever. I want her to win and just keep on winning, there's no better feeling."
This isn't a period Carrington enjoys discussing; reflection comes a distant last to preparing for whatever's next. But: "There was a bit of turmoil, so it was really important to keep doing what I did best and avoid the negatives. I had a lot of people who helped me stay in a good place."
And there's no denying that Walker's arrival on the canoeing scene triggered something special. There she was, in August 2011 and in all her muscled glory, winning her - and New Zealand women's canoeing's - first world title in Szeged, Hungary. And without a teammate in sight.
"Wow," says Carrington, "that's when everything changed. It was unreal, going from usually just making the cusp to being the top. Then the pressure became totally different. But I probably hadn't done anything worth noting before then so it was nice to know I had the goods."
Yet in the back of her mind she knew at least four top-ranked sprinters hadn't shown up. She wouldn't know if she was faster than them until the London Olympics the following year, where she would compete in the new K1 200m race. But that was too late to get any quicker.
For everyone who watched her win gold, and that was most of the country, it might seem odd that her strongest memories involve everything that happened around the race rather than the race or even the result. Even in the starting blocks she made sure to soak in the whole scene. There's no guarantee it'll come again.
There was no such restraint in Ohope. Everyone knew when the Carringtons were leaving for London. Bevan Porter even painted a set of Olympic rings with "Go Lisa" on the road for them, and there was scarcely breathing room in the surf club come kick off for her race.
Her game plan was simple enough: pour every gram of aggression she had into the first 12 strokes, push hard through the middle 150m, then hang tough to the end.
Porter reckoned he knew she had it in the bag when he saw her smile. Carrington laughs and says it was a grimace of pure pain.
"Every muscle just wanted me to stop and I could barely move my arms, well that's what it felt like, but I knew I wanted to win and I had to hang on. Seriously, that's all I was doing, hanging on to the finish. If the race had been just 10m longer I'd have needed a completely different strategy."
Then came the payoff, even if to begin with she was celebrating alone in a tiny boat.
"I kept thinking, 'how awesome'. There were so many people there, the biggest crowd I've ever seen, and they were all there to watch the race. I really made sure I took it all in because afterwards everything was pretty much a whirlwind. Then to be up on the podium, that was so cool. I could see my family in the crowd, my coach and my teammates, then 30,000 people, all of them standing for the New Zealand anthem.
"It's really cool and I have absorbed it. I know I'm the world champion, I know I'm a gold medallist, but they are not defining moments in my life. I haven't finished yet and to be honest, things like that aren't a part of what I work for. They're obviously things I like to achieve, but they are outcomes, not inputs. It'd all be hollow if I hadn't taken the journey to get there."
"That's one thing about Lisa," says her coach, Gordon Walker. "She's able to focus on what it takes to be good. She doesn't worry about much, she doesn't get caught up in her own image and it can't be understated how much of a challenge that is when you've got huge billboards of yourself all over town."
To help, Carrington takes regular mental breaks. She's almost completed a degree in politics and Maori studies (she is Te Aitanga-a-Mahaki and Ngati Porou) and last month she won her first surf lifesaving cap as a member of the New Zealand team to compete at the International Surf Rescue Challenge in Japan.
Such breaks are vital, says Walker, as mental strength is as much a part of her arsenal as her legendary power-to-weight ratio, details of which he treats as a state secret. Besides, she's still only 24 and has plenty of improvement left in her.
An illustration of the determination to carry her form through to the next Olympics was her relative failure at the first canoeing world cup meet this year.
Carrington bombed the semifinal and was relegated to the B final. Although she won, it wasn't a result she could accept.
A week later she raced again, beat everyone and recorded the sixth-fastest time ever in the process.
"Now you can't change a lot in a week," says Walker, "and it's easy to say, 'well, I'll just win next time' but to stay optimistic, to stay positive, and to get out there, deal with the anxiety and perform, there's not a lot of people who can do that. Lisa is very good at processing failure. She's always trying to be the best she can be, and sure, everyone says that as well, but not everyone can say that when I'm at my best I can win, I can beat everyone.
"She's got that level-headed Kiwi humbleness, but there's also a bit of [Oracle Team USA skipper] Jimmy Spithill in her when required - if you go to war with her, she'll never give up."
She's still got those balls.

|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
This offseason, the Red Sox will be looking under ever rock, around every corner and every winter meeting room in order to find a new shortstop. There are several names being thrown around: Marco Scutaro, Brandon Phillips, Stephen Drew, and all have positives and negatives. The Sox are even discussing moving Dustin Pedroia from second base to short.
One of the most intriguing potential moves, however, would mean the Sox would have to go back and fix a previous error.
In 2005, The Red Sox were looking to get better fast and traded one of their top prospects in order to gain a stud pitcher. Hanley Ramirez went to the Marlins in a deal that saw Josh Beckett and Mike Lowell come to the team. It's a deal that would be hard to say was a bust. Beckett went 16-11 his first season and 20-7 the next. During the 2007 season, Beckett pitched amazingly in the ALCS to earn MVP honors. Lowell also had a career year in 2007, capping it off with a World Series MVP. Two MVP's for the price of a prospect, not too shabby.
Then, something funny happened. Ramirez started to become not just a good player, but a great player. He was possibly a once in a blue moon type of player. His first big league season included 17 homeruns, 36 doubles, 11 triples, 59 RBI's, 51 stolen bases and one nice NL Rookie of the Year award. There was no sophomore slump, as Ramirez belted 29 home runs and 81 RBI with a .332 average. After a strong 2008, his 2009 season was a real coming out party: 24 homeruns, 106 RBI and a .342 average made him a runner up to the NL MVP and claims to being the best shortstop in baseball.
So wow, if the Red Sox can get the best shortstop in baseball, without ruining the current lineup, why not? Also, why would the Marlins trade one of the best players in baseball and not get equal talent in exchange? It's simple: the Marlins are cheap, but smart. After winning the World Series in 2003, the Marlins slowly began to get rid of their stars. By the 2006 season, World Series MVP Josh Beckett, A. J. Burnett, Mike Lowell, Ivan Rodriguez, Juan Pierre, Derrek Lee, and Luis Castillo were gone and Miguel Cabrera was gone a season later. If they wished to spend the money, they could have won another World Series, or more.
Instead, the Marlins have always traded top players for prospects and it seems to work out. This season they were fighting for a Wild Card spot behind a infield of Jorge Cantu, Hanley Ramirez and Dan Uggla, who were all drafted by other teams. The Marlins will trade Ramirez before he gets to expensive and use the prospects for future seasons and future transactions. So should the Sox pull the trigger?
If the Red Sox make the deal, they would have to ship Clay Buchholz as a centerpiece in a package that would include options like Casey Kelly, Michael Bowden, Daniel Bard, Ryan Westmoreland and Josh Reddick. Those are the top names in the Red Sox farm system. The last time the Red Sox traded top prospects for star players, the duo of Beckett and Lowell worked out pretty well. A line up of Jacoby Ellsbury, Dustin Pedroia and Hanley Ramirez would be terrifying. Still, is it worth cleaning out the farm system?
Trading Buchholz could be disastrous. After a 7-4 season, he seems to be getting better and they already traded Justin Masterson, so youth in the rotation would be nonexistent outside of Jon Lester. It would also take them out of the running for Roy Halladay, which might not be a bad thing anyway.
Either way, draining the farm system could be bad. The Red Sox are known for their farm system. Pedroia, Ellsbury, Kevin Youkilis, Bard, Jonathan Papelbon and Jon Lester all made their way up from the minors. There's no doubt that someone else can come up and fill the spot, just like Jed Lowrie did. Depleting the farm system ruins any chance of developing a future great player.
However, Ramirez is a current great player. A fantastic bat and strong defensive player that will make him a MVP contender for the next few years and an annual all star. The Red Sox have a deep enough farm system that they could give up a few guys for the future, for a guy ready now and still be set down the road If the Sox are going for a shortstop, why not go for the best? If trading away the future means another World Series win, I am sure that all of Red Sox nation would be for it.

Wouldn't he look better in an Indians uniform? I only get to dream, your team actually has a decent shot. I think if he is there for the taking the Sox should do it. What an incredible addition that would be!
The Red Sox traded Hanley when Theo was gone on his gorilla-suit "sabbatical," and supposedly he was upset that the team moved him, even though the trade was a big part of the 2007 championship. I'm sure there's nothing Theo would like more than to get him back.
Along with Buchholz, we'd need to include Enrique Iglesias, the young Cuban defensive whiz SS, who would be a huge fan favorite in South Florida and who would be cheap for years and years. Buchholz, Lowrie & Iglesias might be enough to get Florida interested. And if Florida would do that, then Boston should jump all over it.
Since I wrote this article, i've actually gone back and forth on should the Sox pull the trigger and the simple answer is that if you can get a top three all around player in the league for a few prospects, you have to do it. IF the Sox can get him without ruining the current core of players, then why not.
[…] of any player with at least 500 at bats. While Bartlett could have been acquired a few years ago, Hanley and Tulowitzki have been untouchable in the trade market. However, Orlando Hudson, another option […]

Qantas faces the threat of legally protected industrial action as early as next week by members of the Transport Workers Union employed in crucial roles such as refuelling and baggage handling.
About 70 per cent of almost 2000 TWU members working at Qantas have overwhelmingly endorsed taking industrial action over stalled negotiations over pay, conditions and job security.
Fair Work Australia has reported that 1367 workers cast valid votes in a secret ballot, with 95 per cent of them voting yes.
TWU national secretary Tony Sheldon said on Wednesday that the union had not made any progress on the major concerns of members during negotiations stretching over four months. "This an unprecedented result for our members," he said.
The TWU refused to be drawn on when it would take industrial action or what form it could take. But the ballot endorsed a range of options, including bans as well as strikes lasting from four hours to 24-hour or 48 hours.
Unions have to give three working days' notice to an employer before they can take legally protected industrial action, meaning any action by TWU members at Qantas could not begin until next week.
About 2000 TWU members employed in Qantas catering operations are voting in a separate ballot on whether to take industrial action, with voting closing in about a fortnight.
Aircraft engineers at Qantas are due to start a rolling series of one-hour stoppages at individual airport operations from Thursday evening, which will last until mid-December.
Qantas has said it expects the stoppages by engineers will cause minimal disruptions for passengers. It is also involved in deadlocked talks on pay and conditions with its long-haul pilots.

Why include Greenville in a Montcalm County sheriff's millage?
STANTON — Montcalm County residents are set to vote on a $1.5 million proposal to maintain and increase sheriff's patrol coverage throughout the county, including in the city of Greenville.
The Greenville Department of Public Safety and the Montcalm County Sheriff's Department are the only law enforcement agencies providing round-the-clock patrols in Montcalm County.
District 1 Commissioner Lloyd Walker, who represents the city of Greenville, supports the millage proposal, but wonders if his constituents will. He discussed the issue with Sheriff Bill Barnwell at Monday's County Board of Commissioners meeting.
"My constituency is a little bit different than what the rest of them are," Walker said. "The citizens of Greenville want more police protection than they can get from the sheriff's department and, therefore, we have our own. How are you going to ask the people of Greenville to pay for additional police?"
Barnwell said he is not sure how to convince the city's voters.
"I think the only way to go about it is to tell them this is a county tax. When they leave their area and travel around the county, we continue to provide support, as we did with the recent bank robbery in Greenville and the shooting in Greenville," he said.
The Huntington Bank armed robbery, which occurred Nov. 9, and the shooting at the Flat River Inn & Suites, which occurred Nov. 12, both remain unsolved. The Sheriff's Department assisted the Greenville Department of Public Safety at both incidents.
"Our officers are in the city of Greenville a lot," Barnwell said. "It's the biggest city in Montcalm County. We're the only ones out there to back them up in a situation like that."
Recently, two sheriff's deputies were making a domestic violence arrest when a break-in in progress was reported.
"We just didn't have anybody to send," Barnwell said. "Clearly it was a case when a 10- or 15-minute difference in response could have made all the difference."
District 2 Commissioner Tom Lindeman, who cast the lone vote against the proposal, admitted that he and Sheriff's Det. Robert McVey backed up the Greenville Department of Public Safety three times in one day years ago. He also noted that Greenville police officers work double duty as firefighters too.
Lindeman represents Eureka and Fairplain townships, as well as a portion of the city of Greenville.

For the future, both global and Hungarian CEOs expect three major global trends – rapid technological advances, demographic changes, and shifts in economic power – which will have a major impact on their businesses.
Of course, these trends aren't new. What has changed is the pace at which they're unfolding – and the way they're colliding to create a completely different economic and social environment. There are new opportunities for growth and innovation, but only companies that are able to capitalise on these changes will prevail.

Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit, MI
SESSION TITLE: Cancer Student/Resident Case Report Posters II
SESSION TYPE: Medical Student/Resident Case Report
PRESENTED ON: Tuesday, October 29, 2013 at 01:30 PM - 02:30 PM
INTRODUCTION: Malignancy is one of the well-known risk factors for the development of pulmonary embolism (PE). However, it is rare for tumor tissue to be the direct cause of emboli in the main pulmonary arteries. We report a very rare case of a massive pulmonary chondrosarcoma embolus.
CASE PRESENTATION: An 18-year old African American male presented with sudden onset shortness of breath and hemoptysis. Past medical history was significant for asthma, hypertension, and morbid obesity (negative social/family history). The patient also had a recent history of an extended car ride with complaints of right leg pain for approximately two weeks prior to hospitalization. Upon presentation, the patient was worked-up for PE and deep vein thrombosis (DVT). CT scan was positive for a large saddle PE while work-up for DVT was negative. Patient was also found to have a new right iliac lytic lesion on CT. Initially, the patient was hemodynamically stable and admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) for heparin infusion and respiratory monitoring. Over 24 hours, the patient's condition rapidly declined. A 2D-echocardiogram demonstrated PE penetration into the right ventricle (RV) and atrium resulting in severe RV failure and pulmonary hypertension. The patient also demonstrated worsening hypoxia. He was emergently taken to the operating room for pulmonary embolectomy and right heart clot removal via cardio-pulmonary bypass. Post-operatively, the patient required aggressive inotropic and vasopressor support as well as nitric oxide. During the post-operative period, the patient was tested for a hypercoagulable disease process, which was negative. The patient was never stable enough for bone biopsy, however, tissue biopsy of his PE was positive for chondrosarcoma. Unfortunately, the patient expired on post-operative day nine.
DISCUSSION: Tumor embolism is a rare and clinically challenging disease process. Autopsy series have estimated an incidence of 3-26% among patients with solid tumors. Chondrosarcomas are also rare, being the third most common primary malignancy of the bone. To date, only two previous studies have described chondrosarcoma pulmonary emboli. Pulmonary embolectomy remains the therapy of choice for massive PE resulting in hemodynamic instability. Although mortality rates post embolectomy still remain high, advances in surgical technique has reduced the mortality rate from approximately 52.4% to 20% over the past two decades.
CONCLUSIONS: Although extremely rare, acute PE caused by chondrosarcoma (or other solid tumors) should be part of the differential diagnosis for patients lacking typical PE causes. Surgical intervention remains the therapeutic gold standard for massive PE with other treatment options utilized on a case appropriate basis.

PawSox Early And Late Rallies Crush Tribe

Maria Gordon
The noise of the classroom didn't die down when the temp teacher walked in. Paper aeroplames whizzeed about the room, some floating lazily to desks with pictures or notes, others out of the open window, others towards the ill-fated temp.
Greg Fermat exuded confidence, laughing loudly at his friends' capers. He was surrounded by a gagle of giggling girls and a group of guys that all wanted to impress him - to be like him in some way or another. He watched as the Temp made her way to the old desk at the front of the class. She shuffled around a few sheets of paper as she looked for the chalk or the register or...something. His elegantly arched, dark brows furrowed slightly as he watched her.
"What's she looking for?" He heard one of the lads ask. Greg shrugged.
Whatever it was, she must've found it because she stopped looking and turned to the board, her back to the rowdy class, and wrote 'Miss Faraday'. The plain, black letters stood out starkly against the smooth, shiney whiteness of the board.
She turned back to the class and smoothed out her freshly ironed grey pencil skirt against her thighs.
"M-my..." She began quietly. Clearing her throat, she took a deep breath and stood straighter. "My name is Miss Faraday. I'm here to-"
"In here." A stern voice boomed as the classroom door swung and crashed against the wall. The class' clamouring ceased immediately as the headmistress of Fernswell High strode into the room, closely followed by a raven haired young lady.
Greg shifted in his seat as the girl's gaze swept the room, unfraid and unintimidated. She was gorgeous. The hostility emanating from the girls around Greg was almost permeable.
Georgiana Black thrust the girl forward as if she were equally irritated by the girl's looks and the stares she was getting from the boys in the class.
"Oh my goodness..." Greg heard one of the girls close to him whisper. "She's beautiful..."It wasn't jealousy in her voice, it sounded more like awe - as if the girl had wandered out of a painting by one of the old masters.
Mrs Black turned to the temp, looking her up and down - lips pursed in distaste, then looked back to the silent class.
"This is Maria Gordon. She will be joining this form class as of today. I expect you all to give her a warm welcome and -"
!I'm honoured to be here. I've never been to a school before, so I'm hoping that it will be as enjoyable as I've always dreamed."
Everyone sat, dumbfounded, even Greg at the girl's daring. Nobody interrupted Mrs Black. Ever. No mater how pressing your need was, her's was always greater. To add to everyone's surprise Mrs Black merely nodded once.
"I can see that you will fit in perfectly, Maria." She said, sarcasm sprinkling her voice.
"I'm sure I will, Mrs Black, you've ben awfully kind to me." Maria replied sweetly, smiling at the tyranical Headmistress. She had a high, musical voice that seemed to mesmerize the class. Her clear, sparkling blue eyeswere wide with anticipation and her raven-black, waist-length hair looked luxuriously soft.
Greg glanced quickly around at the seating arrangements of the class and made a snap decision.
"Em!" He whispered suddenly to the girl who shared his desk. She was a vain blonde girl who wasn't good at conversation. "Emiline!"
"Wha-?" She asked dumbly.
"Move, give her your seat." He whispered harshly.

i have been in dogster for about a year now and we all love it.
it highlights snuff and sanford and puts them in the spotlight.
we are glad to have it.
we have made alot of puppals on here.
snuff and sanford
i am writing today about my little snuffy. he is so cute . he weighs 6lbs so far. he is just about six months old.
my husband bought me snuff for valentine's day.
we got him at a breeder.
he is full blooded and he paid alot for him needless to say.
he came in here and just stole our hearts. i am in love with him
to say the least.
he is so gentle. i used to be scared of dogs. i didn't have a dog when i
was little my mama , who has gone to be with the lord, never liked animals
so she didn't want them in the house. but i married a man that would die for
an animal and so he started getting me dogs for valentine's day.
and i have come to love them just like the kids . i have three kids and
three dogs. my husband has a mule and a horse.
i also have a pomeranian named sanford. he is also the love of my life i got him first about three years ago. both dogs are male.
i didn't want to have to fool with babies and the heat situation.
anyway, sanford is so smart it is amazing really he acts like he can understand just what i say to him. now snuff is the shih-tzu that is almost six months and he doesn't quite act like that he is still a puppie with alot of energy.
alot of people say they don't like animals or that they are dumb.
well i beg to differ, because dogs are really smart and they act as if they know just what you are talking about and one thing about them they will never tell........lol
love ya'll all,
snuff , sanford and kimberly(owner)

World Endurance Series Announces Permanent Team Lineup

From a press release:

International Teams Line Up for World Endurance Prize
The Prestigious "200 Miles" come back

Twenty-six teams from ten countries have applied for "permanent" status in the 2002 FIM World Endurance Championship. Races will be held in six countries around the world, reinforcing the successful efforts of the FIM and series promoter Octagon Motorsports in developing the series.

The official Permanent Teams list, delivered by the FIM Selection Committee, is including teams representing France, Germany, China, Belgium, Italy, the Czech Republic, Austria, Sweden, Switzerland and the UK.
All four of the Japanese manufacturers are represented, and this year no less than two Ducatis will be competing in the full series. As World Endurance becomes more competitive the teams are becoming more professional, with several of the front runners entering two-bike squads. The "permanent teams" list includes riders representing 14 different nations.

Endurance World Championship includes this year too the Suzuka 8 Hours, regarded by many as world's most important motorcycle race but year 2002 also sees a wider range of races than before. The traditional 24-hour race format supplemented by 8 and 6 hour sprints and the resurrection of shorter races such as the classic 200 Miles. This mix of gruelling long-distance tests, shorter tactical challenges and intense sprints will test the depth of skill of all teams; reliability alone will not be enough to win the championship. The varied format will also gain greater TV coverage and spectator interest.

Races will take place in San Marino, the UK, the Czech Republic, Japan, Germany and Italy, with the calendar stretching from April to October. Teams will compete for a single FIM ratified World Championship, with bikes modified to World Superbike, SuperProduction and Stocksport regulations going head to head in the same race. The permanent teams will be joined by a full grid of local "wildcard" entries at each round, with supporting races adding to the unique Endurance Festival atmosphere.

TheBrokenDoor Biography
Dropping famous vocal samples by famous artists from varying genres in their live set gives their audience new music with a sense of familiarity. The line up is a concoction of professional drum n bass musicians and engineers - Emma Welsby (drum n bass producer Strict Status) on vibraphone & vox, Dan Owens (composer, arranger and session musician) on bass, Adam Owens (drummer extraordinaire) on kit and Liam Maloney (producer and engineer Womb) on synths/electronics.
Their open mic policy has given opportunities for artists around the UK to add to TheBrokenDoor's live experience. Controlling their own lighting show using drumming responsive lights, they provide the audio and visual aspects themselves thanks to sponsorship from www.drumlights.com. Their combined musical and drum n bass engineering talent has seen them supporting artists such as Dom N Roland, Future Prophecies, Aquasky and Killa Kela and have achieved live appearances outside the UK.

text: Hello all, I've taken to scouring ebay and B&S here for my first classic navy blazer because it's been very difficult finding something in my size and of quality in my budget($200-$300). However, I am not quite experienced or knowledgeable enough to be able to tell what a really good deal is. I found this Corneliani which I've researched and understand to be one of the top high-end makers, but I still feel skeptical of the low price (even given the ebay seller's high ratings[didn't find him in the B&S ebay sellers thread list] and the option for a return). Here are a couple other ebay finds I've collected, a Dior and a Marzotto. My other options would be a C'e Luca blazer I've found here for about twice the price, and for comparison's sake the sale offers currently at Macy's. I'd appreciate any help and advice, and apologies if this is the wrong place to post this

Win7, Sony Vaio... Is there anyway to temporarily disable the put monitor to sleep function when XYZ application is running?
The same behaviour as say Media Player - when it is playing a video then the monitor sleep (and screen saver) function is disabled - can I add XYZ to this???
I don't want to turn sleep off all together, and I don't want to keep manually changing settings. I was hoping there'd be a smarter way, somehow?!?!?
(I am running a streaming video application that was not meant for Win7 - but I got it working - but Windows is not recognising it as a video application so is activating the sleep function while I am watching the video)

After realizing the pedalboard he wanted didn't exist, Michael Helweg decided to build his own. Luckily for Mass St. Music, he didn't stop there, and he's been making high caliber custom pedalboards ever since. Lawrence-based builder Helweg is making some of the best boards around, with amazing craftsmanship, endless attention to detail, and most importantly a focus on functionality. With a woodworking background and a love for music, he was inspired by the small American guitar and amp builders who produce quality, hand-made products. Helweg wanted to create a pedalboard that would measure up. And did he ever. When you order from Helweg you can choose between colors, woods, patterns, sizes, even the design – the name says it, these boards are truly custom built to fit your musical needs. Add a cover, throw in a JHS Little Black Buffer or a Voodoo Lab power supply, and you'll be ready to add your pedals and start playing. Amazing looks, amazing functionality, in a board that will never let you down. These pedalboards are as good as it gets.
We recently received three Helweg Mass St. Music limited edition pedalboards directly from Helweg and are incredibly impressed with the results. Our own Matthew Khomsi chose the design colors and sizing – emerald green with an ivory stripe. You can order a custom board directly from Helweg, but as the wait can be upwards of two months, we're thrilled to offer these specially designed Mass Street Music edition pedalboards, ready to go. These are just what we wanted and, we think, awesome in every respect.
"Michael's pedalboards are spot on. They're functionally amazing and the craftsmanship is perfect." – John F.
Here's what our buddy and MSM vet Brian Soden had to say after checking these out: "This is probably the last pedalboard you'd ever have to buy, seriously. Strong and sturdy, the construction is really good. The lid on the bottom is great, keeps your cables concealed so none of it gets banged around. Plus it looks killer, not like an industrial case, but more like a sweet amp!"

Thanks for the unique piece!
Flowers born out of stone
I have always been interested in the concept and creation of objects. I have started making jewelry 4 years ago and between all these years I took a 3month seminar for pmc clay.
As an architect I am drawn to explore new forms and try to reshape them in a more abstract and in parallel concise manner.
The reason I first started working with clay is that I have always been amazed of seeing figures emerge out of raw materials. Especially when it comes to clay, it is a material, which encloses infinite capabilities that one is left to discover.
That is, more or less, how I started sculpting and creating elements that follow the patterns encountered in nature. Truth be told, nature has been throughout time one of the most powerful source of inspiration and widespread, as a result . If its forms are observed they can be described as magical since each and every one of them arise out of particular repeated norms, whose slight differences end up in countless variations.
My jewelries are inspired from nature and her's complexity and my architectural vision tries to comprehend and finally organize her in a minimalistic way.
One of my future dreams would be to see these reformulated-abstracted shaped flowers escape the cord and start climbing on walls.

The Powderhorn Clan is a muzzleloading rifle club dedicated to the preservation of these fine American firearms. The Powderhorn clan has been a charter club of the National Muzzleloading Rifle Association since 1948. The Clan is also involved in the faithful re-creation of the lifestyle of
the Mountain Men, Long Hunters and French Voyagers, who armed with this type of weapon, carved a Nation from this land we now call America. This activity is now carried on worldwide and is commonly known as "Buckskinning." Local clubs throughout the country rendezvous year round.
The basic rules for this activity are really quite simple, until you try to follow them. All firearms, clothing, lodging and related gear must be of PRE-1840 vintage. This may either be original or faithful re-creation ofsuch items.
While there are many muzzleloading gun clubs statewide, The Powderhorn Clan is currently the only "primitive" club in Arizona. We have no home base or range and members are scattered throughout the state. Phoenix, Kingman, Casa Grande, Flagstaff and Snowflake are but a few places you will
find clansmen. Most are also members of local shooting clubs. About six to eight times each year we all rendezvous at various sites within the state.
The camp is set-up and any modern gear is removed out of sight. For all practical purposes, the time is prior to 1840. Activities include shooting, hawk and knife throwing contests, practicing primitive skills, nature hikes and related matters. The Powderhorn Clan does not take part in parades, but does do public"living history" demonstrations.
The Powderhorn Clan is accepting applications for membership. Buckskinning is not for everyone, however, if you would like more info. or would like to join the Powderhorn Clan, contact us
& receive a complimentary newsletter & the name of the brigade Booshway in your area. Rendezvous dates & locations are published in the newsletter & on our website. Remember, you don't need anything but an interest to get started!

Lmod1 is a component of the smooth muscle contractile apparatus extractable by high salt, not a transmembrane protein as previously predicted.
Lmod1, formerly the 64kD human autoantigen D1, is expressed in smooth muscle and striated extraocular slow muscle fibers, colocalized with myosin in the contractile apparatus. Protein levels are unaltered by hyperthyroidism.
Lmod1 is a member of the Tropomodulin family of actin binding proteins, and is most highly expressed in smooth muscle.
The leiomodin 1 protein has a putative membrane-spanning region and 2 types of tandemly repeated blocks. The transcript is expressed in all tissues tested, with the highest levels in thyroid, eye muscle, skeletal muscle, and ovary. Increased expression of leiomodin 1 may be linked to Graves' disease and thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy.
