Canada Reads author Tracey Lindberg took the defender of her novel Birdie, Bruce Poon Tip, to visit her community at Kelly Lake Cree Nation.
"Birdie itself is about home," said Tracey. "I'm from Kelly Lake ancestrally. My ancestors are here, our bones are here, our blood runs here. It's important that Bruce knows the connectivity between the land that people come from and the stories that they take with them."
Tracey and Bruce were accompanied by filmmaker Jeremy Ratzlaff, who captured their three-hour helicopter ride over the vast terrain in northern Alberta and B.C. and a meeting with the community elders.
Bruce said he hoped the trip would help him gain a greater understanding of Bernice Metoos, the main character of Birdie.
"My main motivation is to get a blessing from the elders," said Bruce. "I think it's very important to connect with the community."
Watch the video above to see more of their trip.

The Guts To Grow: What Amazon.com, Trader Joe's, And Westin Hotels Have In Common
Posted by Sucharita Mulpuru on February 2, 2012
I received a curious email from one of the founders of eBags the other day. In it, he said that by bringing customer service back to the US and away from an offshore vendor, the company actually reduced customer service costs by 34% (yes, reduced!) while still growing sales by double digits in Q4. It reminded me of another article not too long ago from the Wall Street Journal that cited Qantas as having one of the world's best check-in experiences because the airline invested in RFID tags for passengers, a decision that the article pointed out no other airline has yet copied. These examples stood out to me because these companies managed to pull off a very difficult trick: to make contrarian investments that industry peers would consider hogwash that nonetheless pay off in spades. It's more likely that such investments would backfire, but when they work, they succeed beautifully. Three cases in point:
- Amazon.com. One of the most onerous costs of any web retailer is managing shipping costs. Retailers spend an awful lot of time trying to figure out how to reduce expenses from shipping as much as possible, usually by passing those costs on to shoppers or by sending packages more slowly. Amazon, however, for years has pursued a bold and iconoclastic approach: heavily subsidize shipping, liberally offer free shipping and frequently upgrade package shipments to overdeliver on customer expectations of when packages would arrive. These actions have not only built trust in Amazon but have helped the company win market share from nearly every big-box retailer in the country. But to this day, most retailers are reluctant to follow in the footsteps of Amazon, unable to figure out how to make the economics of such lavish shipping policies work for their own businesses.
- Trader Joe's. In the commoditized grocery industry, Trader Joe's stands out because of the extraordinary business it does (often more than $40MM) in small stores that have limited assortment. I've spent some time trying to figure out some of the secret sauce of the company. There are a number of unique components to Trader Joe's business but the one that I think is probably the most critical is that TJ's pays most of its store associates on average $16 per hour, significantly higher than any other grocer. Yes, this helps them retain their employees longer, but more importantly well-paid employees help to keep the store shelves constantly stocked, a critical factor in the success of any Trader Joe's as the company turns much of its inventory daily (yup, 365 times a year). In a nutshell, higher payroll helps the company benefit from higher inventory turns. Of course, the well-paid store associates also have smiles on their faces and the ability to answer any and all questions of shoppers but the success they created is unique: small stores with lots of revenue from low-ticket items.
- Westin Hotels. This is of course the legendary example that is frequently cited in presentations and case studies of marketing success stories. In 1999, Westin took the unprecedented step of investing more in its beds, heresy at the time because the move was considered expensive, high-maintenance, and risky. Then-CEO Barry Sternlicht described why the introduction of the Heavenly Bed was such a hit: "The motive in the hotel business was to cut corners on the beds." By investing in the bed, the place where most hotel guests spent most of their time, it not only resonated for the hotel chain but it compelled other chains like Marriott to follow suit. It also launched a completely new line of products where the Heavenly Bed itself was sold to consumers.
I certainly don't want to overstate the ease of making these contrarian investments; they're darn hard to execute. The change needs to matter to customers. And it needs to be executed well. The announcement last week by Ron Johnson, the new CEO of JCPenney to revamp the stores, falls into a decision that is certainly bold and gutsy. The questions that remain are, will customers care, especially since most of the stores are not situated in great malls worth visiting, and will they execute well. Brands like Apple, Williams-Sonoma or even Abercrombie have an advantage in that they have products that attract passionate store associates.
Do you have an example of a company that executed an expensive change really well, or that executed the wrong change and bombed? Share with us your thoughts.
Another Trader Joe's example
Comment from Kit Hamilton (not verified) on Thu, 02/02/2012 - 15:25
Interesting take, Sucharita. A few weeks ago I wrote how Trader Joe's applied a less-is-more strategy in other aspects of the customer experience. In essence, Trader Joe's is successful not because it bombards customers with products or communications. They are successful because they carefully match products and communications to customer needs—an integral part of customer communication management. And, like your post explains, somewhat contrarian in today's market. If interested, can read more at http://www.pbinsight.com/blog/details/if-trader-joe-managed-your-communi...

A lazy dad left his three children living rotting food, broken glass and swarms of flies in a vile home police described as "the worst they had ever seen."
Officers discovered the neglected kids - all under 12 - in the vile home with filth and grime smeared over the walls and windows.
The cooker in the home in Knowle West, Bristol, was caked in grease and fresh food sat in a fridge that was filled with black mould.
Dirt covered the walls, windows and floor of the vile home and every surface was thick with grime.
But despite the conditions - condemned as "appalling" by a judge - the lay-about dad was spared prison for neglecting his children and was given a suspended sentence.
These shocking pictures show the squalor which also included human excrement smeared on the walls, rotting food, dog mess and rubbish knee-high deep.
When challenged by officers the 37-year-old father blamed the filthy state of the house on his ex - claiming it was her responsibility to do the cleaning.
Bristol Crown Court heard that when police first questioned the dad - who can not be named for legal reasons - he refused to let them past the front door.
But they went back armed with cameras to capture the squalor.
Neil Treharne, prosecuting, said: "He blamed his ex-partner. He said faeces from the dog littered the house and it was her responsibility.
"He said refuse in the kitchen was from where a dog ripped a bin bag open and it was her responsibility.
"He said the state of the cooker was her fault as she was responsible for cleaning the house.
"He said he smashed glass in the microwave in a rage and could give no reason as to why it wasn't cleared away."
The slovenly father even blamed his kids for the mess, claiming they had refused to stop smearing faeces over the walls.
He was frequently in trouble in the past and was addicted to heroin until 2000, the court heard.
When his long-term partner left him he lost his job and started smoking cannabis causing "inertia and emotional paralysis".
Peter Richardson, defending, said: "He is utterly ashamed of what occurred at that period of his life, and the effect upon his children.
"The photographs are not pleasant, he fully accepts that.
"His use of cannabis caused inertia and emotional paralysis.
"There is a world of difference between someone who sets out to be cruel and the result of inadequacy and a drug habit at the time."
The dad admitted three counts of child neglect and was given a one-year prison sentence, suspended for 18 months, with a year's supervision.
Judge Timothy Mousley QC told him: "The photographs show the circumstances in which those three young children were living.
"The conditions were appalling and you should be ashamed of yourself for letting it get into that sort of state."
"It was associated with neglect. It was not associated with cruelty. It came about because of your inadequacies.
"You accept it came about as a result of the wreckage of the breakdown of your relationship and you went back to taking drugs."

By Abigail Cukier, News Staff

The staff at the St. Joseph's Healthcare Hamilton Diabetes Program want adults diagnosed with the disease to know they are not alone.

The program, based out of the hospital's King Street Campus, provides one-on-one sessions with a dietician and a nurse, as well as group sessions on topics including eating out and managing insulin. The program also has a social worker who is available to talk to clients about stress management, depression, relationship issues.

"Some people need just a little support others come to us more often," said Shelley Sinclair, a registered nurse and diabetes educator. "We help people set goals. You can't change your genes, but our higher calorie, higher fat diet and more sedentary lifestyles have a lot to do with developing diabetes. We look at what they can do to improve their lifestyle."

While participants must be referred by a physician for the one-on-one support, anyone can sign themselves up for the group sessions.

These classes are provided in daytime and evening sessions. The one-time classes are free of charge. They include Living Well with Diabetes, which is ideal for the newly diagnosed, Carbohydrate Counting, Label Reading, Eat Smart for your Heart, Eating Out and Managing Insulin.

Craving Change, which is three classes, costs $10 (including a workbook). It focuses on changing the participant's relationship with food.

The Stay Well program, which also has a fee, is an exercise program run out of the gym at the King Campus. Participants receive help with setting a routine and using the equipment.

The program also provides many written resources on all aspects of diabetes management and can connect clients with the foot clinic, diagnostic lab and eye clinic, all of which are at the King Campus.

St. Joe's also offers a prediabetes program for people who have higher than normal blood glucose levels but not high enough to be diagnosed with diabetes. Not everyone with prediabetes will develop diabetes, but many will.

The program focuses on lifestyle changes such as diet, portion sizes and exercise or even losing five to 10 per cent of your body weight in an effort to delay or prevent diabetes onset.

Participants can refer themselves to this four-session program which also includes question and answer sessions.

Sinclair said that while the staff provides any necessary support, they encourage self-management.

"People feel better about themselves when they set goals and reach them."

For information or to register for the program, visit www.stjoes.ca/diabetesprogram or call (905) 573-4819.

Personally coffee makes me reach for a breath mint, but apparently it can inhibit the growth of 'bad' bacteria that cause smelly breath.
This is a landmark discovery LOL!! "Everybody thinks that coffee causes bad breath," says Prof. Rosenberg, "and it's often true, because coffee, which has a dehydrating effect in the mouth, becomes potent when mixed with milk, and can ferment into smelly substances." But not always. "Contrary to our expectations, we found some components in coffee that actually inhibit bad breath," explains Prof. Rosenberg. The findings were presented last month to members of the International Society for Breath Odor Research in Germany by Yael Gov, a researcher in Prof. Rosenberg's laboratory. Apparently they still need to isolate the bacterial-inhibiting molecule.

Anil Ambani Group Says Indian Investigators Examined Officials
Anil Ambani's group said Indian federal investigators examined some of its officials, hours after reporting it knows the brokers who spread "sensational charges" that caused a $2.6 billion loss in value Feb. 9.
The Central Bureau of Investigation "is reportedly examining a large number of telecom companies and their officials over the past several weeks, in relation to various matters relating to the years 2001 to 2008," Reliance ADA Group said in an e-mailed statement today, without elaborating. "As part of this process, CBI has also examined a few officials of Reliance ADA Group."
The group, which has power, mobile-phone and infrastructure businesses, said yesterday brokers sent e-mails, text messages and made telephone calls disseminating "baseless" accusations about its firms and sought an investigation by India's capital- markets regulator. The group's flagship, Reliance Communications Ltd., plunged 15 percent this week, as analysts predicted the company will post a sixth straight drop in profit on Monday.
"Earnings are immaterial now," said Jigar Shah, an analyst with Kim Eng Securities India Pvt. in Mumbai who has a "sell" rating on the shares. "What is critical is how they are able to reduce debt levels."
Reliance Communications fell as much as 7.1 percent yesterday to 89.70 rupees, the lowest level since trading began March 7, 2006, as investors are concerned lower profit will constrain the ability of India's most indebted mobile-phone operator to cut loans. It rose 0.6 percent at close of trading.
Worst Performer
The mobile-phone company is the worst-performing stock in India's benchmark index this year. Billionaire Ambani's Reliance Infrastructure Ltd. is the second-worst.
The Bombay Stock Exchange Sensitive Index is the world's worst-performing benchmark gauge apart from Egypt this year. The Sensex rose 1.5 percent yesterday.
Indian investigators are probing telecommunication companies after a government panel said Feb. 4 that the Department of Telecommunications failed to follow guidelines while allocating mobile-phone airwaves. The Comptroller & Auditor General of India said in November airwaves were sold for an "unbelievably low" $2.7 billion.
Reliance Communications' net income may fall 66 percent to 3.7 billion rupees ($81 million) in the third quarter, according to the average of 25 analyst estimates compiled by Bloomberg. The company reports Feb. 14.
Debt Burden
The company's net debt increased more than eight-fold to about 292 billion rupees as of Sept. 30 from 33.7 billion rupees at the end of September 2007, according to its quarterly reports. The operator will cut investment in capacity expansion as it aims to become debt free in three years, Ambani said last year.
Ambani's companies plunged Feb. 9, after which the group said "vicious and illegal" rumors sparked a sell-off.
The company, India's second-biggest mobile-phone operator, was in talks to sell a stake or do an initial public offering of its mobile-phone tower unit after negotiations to sell it to GTL Infrastructure Ltd. collapsed Aug. 31.
The board also approved a separate plan to sell a 26 percent stake in itself at an "appropriate" premium to the market price, to a strategic buyer or a private equity firm, the company said in an e-mailed statement June 6.
"There have been so many attempts by the company to dilute equity and raise some capital, but nothing has materialized," said Yogesh Kirve, an analyst at Anand Rathi Financial Services Ltd. in Mumbai. He has a "sell" rating on the shares.
Wireless Spectrum
Reliance Communications is trying to reduce debt after it and rivals Bharti Airtel Ltd. and Vodafone Essar Ltd. spent a combined $15 billion buying third-generation wireless spectrum in India, where call rates are as cheap as a half-penny a minute.
Reliance's average revenue per user, a key measure of performance in the mobile-phone industry, dropped 38 percent in the second quarter.
Call rates have plunged in India since 2009 as new entrants including Japan's NTT DoCoMo Inc. and Norway's Telenor ASA triggered a tariff war. More than a dozen operators are competing in India, which had 730 million mobile-phone accounts as of November, making it the world's biggest market after China.
Nineteen of the 44 analysts tracked by Bloomberg recommend selling Reliance Communications, 14 recommend holding and 11 recommend buying.
Ambani blamed rumors for the Feb. 9 plunges in shares of his group's telecoms, power and infrastructure companies.
'Unscrupulous' Rivals
"A series of completely baseless and motivated rumors have been spread by our unscrupulous corporate rivals," Reliance ADA Group said then. "This has been accompanied by vicious and illegal bear hammering of our listed stocks, to create panic and destabilize the markets."
Ambani's wealth has diminished along with the drop in the group's market value, according to estimates by Forbes magazine. In 2010, his net worth was less than half of his older brother Mukesh, who ForbesAsia said was worth $27 billion. Anil Ambani's worth was estimated to be $13.3 billion.
The decline started in 2008, when Anil Ambani's net worth fell by $32 billion, the magazine estimated in its annual listing of the world's wealthiest.

CANNELTON - Myers elementary teachers will hold parent-teacher conferences from 12:15 to 3:30 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday. Grade cards will be issued during the conferences. For more information, contact Jane Efinger-Hayden at 547-4126.
CANNELTON - Cannelton sewer lines will be smoke-tested during the last week of the month, Sewer Department Superintendent Jerry Ball said Oct. 12.
Testing will begin in the area of Schwab Safe Co., and go to new Indiana 237, and "we'll stay on the north side of Indiana 66," Ball said. The testing should take a day to a day-and-a-half, he added.
TELL CITY - The Rev. Paul Etienne, a Tell City native who returned home this summer to shepherd two Perry County congregations, was named Monday by Pope Benedict XVI as the next bishop of Cheyenne, Wyo.
According to stories posted Monday on the home pages of the Diocese of Wyoming and the Archdiocese of Indianapolis, Etienne will take possession of the diocese in early December.
TELL CITY - It took six years, the cancer deaths of two National Guard soldiers, and the serious illness of dozens of others for the Pentagon to begin informing soldiers they had been exposed to highly toxic sodium dichromate in Iraq, according to a news release from DCBureau.org.
Now that the issue has received some attention, the organization said in a report released last week, "Congress has relegated its investigation to a powerless and partisan Senate committee."
PERRY COUNTY - The last big weekend of Perry County's Hoosier Heritage Fall Tour will follow the Ohio River Saturday and Sunday, with dozens of Route 66 yard sales offering bargains at stops in several communities. Also Saturday is an open house at the Shubael Little Village near Rocky Point. Two busy days of events are also planned in Rome, many of them centered around the town's historic courthouse.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - Jason Emmons, a professional chain-saw carver from Perry County, took top honors in the Oct. 2-4 Echo Chain Saw Carving Championship in New Mexico.
Emmons, who carved a figure of Geronimo surrounded by several animals, including a wolf and an eagle with 8-foot-long extended wings, earned $5,000, a new chain saw and the Echo Cup. He and other contestants worked more than 20 hours on the carvings with the common theme of "The Great American Southwest."
REO - Perry Central's Marching Commodores took second place in their first Class D competition Saturday at South Spencer High School.
Bands competing in the invitational performed stand-still shows after school officials determined a day earlier the football field was too wet for use.
"We had a pretty good show," Perry Central Band Director Rob Cason said. "The kids played pretty well. We don't practice the stand-still show much. That's not a big deal except that the color guard is not used to it. It's more challenging for them than anyone else."
REO - Tell City's Marching Marksmen earned third place and the best-percussion award at South Spencer High School Saturday.
School officials decided Friday the football field was too wet to accommodate bands, sending them into a gymnasium for stand-still performances.
"The kids are in a marching-band mode," Band Director Barry Reasoner said Wednesday, "and inside, it's completely different. We tried to prepare the best we could to take the show inside."
TELL CITY - Members of the public attending the Tell City High School football game Friday will get to see the last public performance of Marching Marksmen's show before they head to regional competition the following day.
"We encourage the public to come and show their support," said Patty Hawkins, president of the band's boosters club.

OKI pioneered the use of a high-resolution strip of LEDs, rather than a laser beam, as the light source of its printers and the extra simplicity of the design has proved itself over the years. The company's latest range of mono page printers uses a 2,400 x 600dpi strip of LEDs and makes strong claims for its speed and print quality, in the B410dn, which is a high-end home or small business printer.
Maybe it's just taste, but to us OKI printers always manage to look a little dated in comparison with some of their sleeker contemporaries. The B410dn does better than some, with its cream and dark grey casing, but the front panel, with oversized cover release button and deep-set LCD panel, doesn't do it any favours. The LCD display, in particular, is in desperate need of a backlight, as it's very hard to read, even when you're standing right over it.
At the bottom of the front cover is a 250-sheet paper tray and there's a fold down, single-sheet multipurpose tray above this. Paper feeds to a deep inset in the top cover and you're unlikely to need the fold up paper stop near the front.
At the back, unusually, are three different connection sockets, for USB, Ethernet and legacy parallel cables. There should be little problem connecting this machine into a brand-new or legacy environment.
Software installation is a different matter, though. After installing driver files, there's the instruction 'Step 2. Switch on your printer. The "New Hardware Found" wizard will start.' Yes, and? Do you follow the wizard or cancel it, as most printer setups require? There are no further instructions.
In fact, you should follow the wizard, but it then fails to find some required DLLs and needs steering manually to two different folders: System 32 and a driver folder on the OKI CD. We're sure this isn't meant to happen, but our test PC uses a very vanilla Windows XP installation and we tried it twice, with identical results.
Fitting the consumables is straightforward, as the drum unit comes pre-installed and all you need do is clip in the small toner cartridge, which piggybacks onto it. Toner is good for 3,500 ISO pages, so you won't need to refill it too frequently.

Dogbreath Coyote Calls
Shop Dogbreath Coyote Calls
There are basically two kinds of hand calls used for calling coyotes; closed reed and open reed calls.
An important difference between the two is that the closed reed type may tend to freeze up more quickly in cold weather. The closed reed call might also be a little easier for a beginner to use. Making distress sounds with a closed reed call is just a matter of blowing some air through it. A closed reed call will also have a wider range of volume and can be used as a coaxer. An open reed call is more flexible, allowing a variety of sounds from prey distress to coyote vocalizations like howling. Either type of call will effectively call coyotes.
Hand calls are easy to carry, reliable, inexpensive and extremely effective. Also, there is that special feeling of accomplishment when you call in that coyote with a hand call. Unless you want to be very disappointed with some dead batteries don't ever go coyote calling without your hand calls.
Coyote Calls – Distress Calls
Learning how to use a mouth blown rabbit-in-distress call or a coyote howler is fairly simple. I recommend that you purchase at least a couple of different distress calls like the Dogbreath Rip'em Rabbit and the Stack'em Rabbit Distress Call.
Having two different distress calls will provide you some variety. You'll find that just switching your calls up on a stand just might be what that coyote needed to hear. Calling coyotes can be kind of like fishing, you want to switch up your bait and see what the coyotes like. Switching call sounds can also help to get that coyote that's hung up 300 yards out to start moving again.
Coyotes respond to your call out of hunger, territorial issues, social issues or curiosity. I believe that most of your responses will be from hunger and territorial issues.
The majority of all coyotes are called in using prey distress sounds. The good old- fashioned rabbit-in-distress sound has probably been used to call in more coyotes than all the others combined. I don't believe this proven technique will be replaced any time soon.
Coyote Howlers
In just the last several years, using coyote sounds like howling have become more popular. I'm a big fan of using coyote sounds for calling. Some of the most exciting hunts you will ever have are when a coyote respond to your howls. They often will come in yipping and yapping all bristled up looking for a fight. I recommend the Dogbreath Whack'em Coyote Howler for its ease of use and superior sound.
Dogbreath Coyote Calls are all hand made one at a time on a CNC machine. Instead of the mass produced injection molded calls on the market today Dogbreath Coyote Calls are made with Delrin® which is a very hard material known for its superior acoustical properties and toughness. No mass production here. These calls are designed to make great sounds every time. You Call – They Fall!

When Stephanie and Craig Sellers brought their newborn daughter, Katie Jane, home from the hospital, their first "child"—an 80-pound Rottweiler named Hank—had an identity crisis that transformed their "gentle giant" into a Tasmanian devil.
"His paws were going so quickly," Stephanie says, remembering the terrifying moment when she put Katie Jane's car seat on the floor to let Hank sniff her. She thought his snapping jaws and prancing paws would land on the baby's face.
That night, Craig slept on their pull-out couch, clutching Hank's leash to keep him from scratching at the master bedroom door, where Stephanie spent a fitful first night with her baby.
"I was in tears," Stephanie remembers, "because I was so emotional from having a baby, and I thought we were going to have to get rid of our dog."
The Sellers' story is far from unique. Many couples waiting to have kids choose to get a dog first. If that dog is good with people, parents-to-be often assume the dog also will be good with babies. What they don't realize, say local trainers, is that bringing a baby home flips a dog's world upside down. But if a dog is properly trained and prepared for the baby's arrival, they say, parents can avoid being forced to choose between their canine and their kid—and prevent their baby from becoming a dog bite statistic.
The American Medical Association says dog bites are the No. 2 reason children are rushed to the emergency room each year—334,000 visits each year—behind only baseball/softball injuries. And 77 percent of the time, the biting dog belongs to the victim's family or friend—scary statistics for owners with a baby on the way.
Help dog adjust
Hoping to reduce those statistics and keep families and their dogs together, Jennifer Boznos, owner of Call of the Wild School for Dogs in Chicago, has created an eight-week "preparing your dog for a baby" course starting April 14. Other dog training schools, such as the Oak Park-based AnimalSense, offer similar group and private instruction.
"If we can, in our small way, reduce that statistic and keep dogs in their original homes, then we're able to do some good," says Boznos, who has worked one-on-one with expectant dog owners in the past.
The key, agree Boznos and senior trainer Shawn Peek, is training your dog before your baby comes home. "Things that work pre-baby may not work post-baby," Boznos explains. "We want to make those changes before the baby comes."
In the course, Boznos and Peek will teach obedience standards such as "sit," "down" and "stay," along with leash and greeting behaviors. Once dogs master the basics, Boznos says they will focus on baby-specific skills, such as stroller walking.
The idea, Boznos explains, is to familiarize your dog with all the sights, smells and sounds that accompany a baby. The goal is that "when Mom comes in carrying a bundle that starts shrieking, the dog knows what to do."
Positive reinforcement
To ensure that familiarity, dogs and their owners need to practice with realistic props and positive reinforcement—treats—Peek says, both in the classroom and at home. To help their dogs adjust, clients practice walking their dog while pushing a stroller and play a CD of a baby crying during dinner time.
And that's just the beginning. Peek and Boznos also help teach dogs to resist licking, jumping and picking up pacifiers from the floor, as well as ignoring a curious baby who insists on pulling the dog's tail.
Peek, who lives with her two toddlers and a rambunctious Australian shepherd, says training makes all the difference. "It made my life so much easier," she says. "I don't know how people who don't prepare their dogs do it."
Neither do Buffalo Grove residents Dana and Randy Polonsky, owners of a Portuguese water dog, Vasco de Gama, and parents of 18-month-old Norah. Before Norah was born, the Polonskys worked with Peek to prepare their dog for the baby's arrival. Dana says she didn't want to risk either her relationship with Vasco or her daughter's safety.
"[Vasco is] a member of our family. He's our first born, and we wanted to make it work," she says. "Because we had this kind of training, we found things that would continue to allow us to have success with our dog."
'A different dog'
After her nightmarish first night at home with Katie Jane, Stephanie Sellers wasn't sure whether she and Craig could safely keep their Rottweiler, Hank.
But the next day, she called Jamie Damato, owner of AnimalSense, an Oak Park-based dog training school that offers a Bowser & Baby class similar to Boznos' course. After eight private training sessions with Damato, Hank was "a different dog," Sellers says. She now sees a future that includes both her canine and her child.
"Our daughter loves our dog," Sellers says. "Our hope is that they're going to grow up to be best friends. And that's what we see happening now." Lorien Menhennett is associate editor of Chicago Parent.
Dogs and kids can coexist peacefully, provided they are properly introduced. There are certain rules that make it easier, whether baby comes first or doggie comes first.
When baby comes first
• Choose your dog carefully. Rather than pick a certain breed, look for a dog that isn't easily aroused and avoid dogs that are jumpy or afraid of strangers, dog trainer Jennifer Boznos says.
• Expose your puppy to kids. Eighty percent of a dog's brain development is complete by the time the dog is 16 weeks old, Boznos says. If you want your dog to be good around kids, it should have pleasurable experiences with young kids every day. "You're stacking the deck in your favor when you do that," she explains.
When doggie comes first
• Be prepared. Read a book on how to prepare your dog or sign up for a training class before the baby comes home. Jamie Damato, another local dog trainer, recommends Your Dog and Your Baby: A Practical Guide, by Silvia Hartmann-Kent. Practice walking with a stroller and play sounds of a baby crying. After your baby is born, send her baby blanket home so the dog can adjust to her smell.
• Make baby time playtime. Don't wait to play fetch until the baby is napping, says dog trainer Shawn Peek. That signals that your baby's presence means the fun stops. Instead, play fetch or give your dog a special chew toy while you nurse the baby, and make sure the dog comes along on all of your walks with the baby.
• Never leave your dog and baby unattended. No matter how well trained, a dog is still a dog, and parents need to prevent possible dangerous situations, Boznos says. "These are your children and this is an animal with teeth," she adds.
• Create an escape for your dog. When lots of guests come over, send your dog to his crate with a treat. This will make things easier for both you and your dog, Boznos says.
• Hire a dog walker. As much as you try, there will be days when you simply don't have time to play with your dog, Damato says. Lorien Menhennett

Bulls Lose Heartbreaker to No. 17 Baylor
By USF
Related Links
TAMPA (March 6, 2017) – A cold and windy evening in Bradenton, Fla., set the stage for the USF men's tennis team to take on their fourth Top 25 opponent of the season. The match came down to the very last court where freshman Pierre Luquet went to a third set, and two tiebreaks before falling 4-6, 7-6(2), 7-6(4).
USF clinched the doubles point, and started singles play with a one-point advantage. It was a fight from the very start as three Bulls, Alberto Barroso-Campos, Vadym Kalyuzhnyy Pierre Luquet knocked out their first set with a win.
No. 83 Barroso-Campos and senior Vadym Kalyuzhnyy lead the team in singles wins, and both improved to 7-2 after victories against Baylor. Barroso-Campos was the only Bull to win in straight sets, defeating No. 50 Johannes Schretter, 7-5, 6-2, and Kalyuzhnyy notched a 6-4, 3-6, 6-2 decision to help tie up the match.
Freshman Pierre Luquet took his first set 6-4, but could not overcome Baylor's Constantin Frantzen as they entered tiebreakers to decide both of the final sets, and ultimately the match.
In doubles play, Justin Roberts and Peter Bertran worked over Baylor's Juan Benitez and Max Tchoutakian in a 6-3 win, but the Bears replied with a 6-3 victory on court three. Senior Sasha Gozun and Barroso-Campos took court one, 6-4, to clinch the doubles point.
· Vadym Kalyuzhnyy and Alberto Barroso-Campos lead the team in singles wins, both 7-2.
Coach Ashley Fisher on the tough loss…
"I'm proud of the fight, and while it was a gut wrenching loss in the sense that we were one point away, it shows that with some tiny improvement we will begin beating these Top 20 teams. Tonight was a reminder why college tennis is special with twelve guys leaving it all out there and unfortunately someone had to lose."
Up Next:
The USF men's tennis team will go back home for a doubleheader Wednesday where they face North Florida at 10 a.m., and UNCW directly after.

"Guardians of the Galaxy" is the fourth Marvel film to open above $90 million this year.
Analysts had expected the film to make about $70 million.

Faculty ResearcherRonald Ferguson, Senior Lecturer in Education and Public Policy, Harvard Kennedy School and Harvard Graduate School of EducationPaper Title
Can Student Surveys Measure Teaching Quality?
The education landscape is dotted with metrics for evaluating teacher and student performance — from standardized test scores to course passage rates, from students' attendance to teachers' knowledge. But, unlike in colleges and universities, student feedback is rarely sought as part of the improvement effort in primary and secondary schools.
"One impediment has been the doubt that students can provide valid and reliable responses about the quality of the teaching that they experience," writes Ronald Ferguson, senior lecturer in education and public policy at the Harvard Graduate School of Education and the Harvard Kennedy School, in "Can Student Surveys Measure Teaching Quality?" That doubt should be put to rest, he argues.
"We are learning," writes Ferguson, also the faculty director of the Achievement Gap Initiative at Harvard University, "that well-constructed classroom-level student surveys are a low burden and high-potential mechanism for incorporating students' voices in massive numbers into our efforts to improve teaching and learning."
He cautions against the ever-present danger of measurement errors, or of teachers altering their behavior during a measurement period. "The way forward for teacher evaluation and support," he stresses, "should be 'multiple measures, multiple times, over multiple years.'"
Student surveys have shown that they deserve to be one of those measures, he argues. Ferguson developed student surveys as part of the Tripod Project for School Improvement — which addresses teachers' content knowledge, pedagogic skill, and relationship skills — over more than a decade of work. Initially, Ferguson worked with k–12 teachers and administrators in Shaker Heights, Ohio, and with 15 member districts of the Minority Student Achievement Network. Since 2005 he has developed the surveys for use both around the nation and abroad, and over one million surveys have been administered. The student surveys measure instructional quality using seven categories, ranging from a teacher's control of the classroom, to her or his ability to challenge students, to whether he or she is able to create a caring and emotionally safe environment for students to learn in.
The Measures of Effective Teaching (MET) Project launched by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, examines value-added test score gains, knowledge tests, and observational protocols, among other measures. It also uses Ferguson's Tripod survey to measure student perception.
Reports from the met Project show that student responses are "valid and reliable predictors of learning in mathematics and English language arts," Ferguson writes.
One report compared learning gains with students' evaluation of teachers, analyzing the data in various ways — for example, correlating survey responses with learning gains in other sections taught by the teacher in the same year or in previous years. "In each analysis, students of math teachers with Tripod survey rankings in the top quarter learned the equivalent of four to five more months per year, on average, than students of teachers with survey rankings in the bottom quarter," Ferguson explains. Gains in language arts were about half as large.
The reports also showed that the highest-achieving classrooms are "respectful and orderly environments, with students who stay busy and learn to correct their mistakes from a teacher who explains difficult things clearly."
"No one survey instrument or observational protocol should have high stakes for teachers if used alone or for only a single deployment," Ferguson concludes. "But students know good instruction when they experience it as well as when they do not."

A weakened strain of the Chlamydia trachomatis bacteria could be used as a vaccine against the world's biggest cause of infectious blindness, according to a study by the National Institutes of Health.
Trachoma, which affects an estimated 40 million people around the world, could be counteracted by a dose of the bacteria that has been weakened by removing a small piece of DNA.
A test on six macaque monkeys found that all of them spontaneously recovered from the trachoma infection in less than two weeks, with minimal or no signs of ocular disease.
"This work is an important milestone in the development of a trachoma vaccine," said Anthony S Faudi, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

How to Choose a Cartomizer for your E-Cig
What cartomizer fits my battery? Can I use a Smileomizer with a Vapor King battery? Does a tank fit my eGo? Do these questions sound familiar? People new to vaping, or even people who have been vaping for months or years can have a lot of questions when it comes to using refillables. That's OK

First, let's take a look at your camera gear. If you've got a three-year old entry-level APS-C or Four-Thirds digital SLR, a couple of kit lenses, a decent flashgun and a good solid tripod then you're well equipped for most types of hobby photography, but you're not even close to the sort of gear you need to shoot a wedding properly. Churches are generally not well lit, and many prohibit the use of flash during the marriage ceremony, so you're going to need a camera that can focus quickly, accurately and totally reliably in low light and produce high quality noise-free images at 1600 ISO or higher. While there are a few high-end APS-C cameras that can perform at this level, for the best results most wedding photographers will use a compact full-frame DSLR, such as a the Nikon D700, the Sony A900, or the Canon EOS 5D MkII. The larger full-frame cameras such as the Nikon D3x and Canon EOS-1Ds MkIII would also be a good choice for quality, but they're very heavy and would be tiring to use for a whole day. I recently shot a friend's wedding using a Canon EOS 5D Mk II as the main camera, with my old Sony Alpha A100 as a backup, and it performed brilliantly.
To help capture sharp photos in low light you'll also need some fast lenses, preferably f/2.8, but at least f/4, and image stabilisation is absolutely essential, whether it's optical lens stabilisation or the sensor-shift system used by Sony. As for focal length you'll certainly need a good wide-angle lens to capture interior shots and large groups of people, but you'll also need a short telephoto for close-in shots during the ceremony. Some photographers will use a selection of fast prime lenses, for instance 28mm, 50mm and 100mm. Personally I prefer to use a 28-105mm f/4 wide-zoom lens as a main lens, with an f/2 135mm prime lens as a backup.
A good flashgun is also essential, mostly for fill-in flash on the formal portrait shots, but also for later at the reception. You need to have one that has a dedicated connection to your camera, so it can use the TTL metering to automatically balance with the ambient light to provide fill-in. The latest modern Speedlite-type flashguns such as Canon's excellent 580EX II are ideal, since they have tilting and swivelling heads, very fast recharge times and enough power to fill a large room.
Other accessories
You'll also need a good solid tripod with a quick-release plate, a large Lastolite-type portable reflector, and enough memory cards and spare batteries (for both camera and flash) to last the entire day. You should be shooting entirely in Raw mode for maximum quality, and for a full-scale wedding and reception you can quite easily find yourself taking anything over 300 shots, so make sure you've got plenty of storage capacity available for the whole day.
If you are planning on doing the prints yourself, your old £30 inkjet just isn't going to be able to produce the kind of quality and quantity you'll need. You really need a top-of-the-range photo quality printer, such as the Epson R2400 or Canon PIXMA Pro9000 Mk II. They're expensive to buy and not cheap to run either, but being able to offer A3 prints is a big advantage. Alternatively you'll need to look into local photo printing services. Again, not cheap, but at least the quality should be guaranteed.

The entire staff at a pub in Yorkshire have changed their names to Wayne Rooney for the duration of the World Cup.
All 15 staff members at the Bay Horse in East Ardsley have changed their names to the England striker, while the pubs owners - Lee and Lorraine Kennedy - have changed their names to that of England manager Fabio Capello.
"The managers wanted to do something so we all sat down and decided to do this," 23-year-old Wayne Rooney, who used to go by the name Joanne Hill, told Sky News.
"It's to show our support for England and show how much we're behind them.
"They (the pub regulars) think it's ace. They shout Wayne and we all turn around. They love it and think it's really funny.
"It has not been a hassle at all - we could change birth certificates and driving licences but because it is only temporary nobody is going to."
All the name changers now have certificates from the UK deed poll service to prove their new identities but they will revert back to their old names when the World Cup ends.

GE Range wiring? 4-wire to 3-wire
I just bought a used GE range that takes a 4 wire cord. I have a 3 wire plug recepticle. I tried a 3-wire cord and the clock and the lights worked, but the elements wouldn't heat up. I assume I need the ground wire.
My question: Would it be possible to run a ground wire from the breaker box, and wire it directly to the ground screw on the back of the range?
If I need to install a 4 wire recepticle, do I need to run a 4-wire cable from the breaker box to the new recepticle? If I could get by with just running a groud wire, it would make the job a lot easier.
The elements work in another stove. There shows to be 120 v. getting to each lead going to the elements (when it is turned on, but the elements are not heating up.
I ran a jumper from the neutral to the ground on the back of the range, and the metal of the stove is grounded. What could be the reason the elements are not heating?
If the clock is working the neutral is good. You have 120 on each terminal at the element, but when you check between them do you get 240? If the 240 is not there check for a missing leg at the cord/receptacle, barring that ???
Praise the Lord! I checked the recepticle and found that I had 120 v. on one side, and the other side was dead. I flipped the breaker off and back on, and checked to see if it was good. I then checked the recepticle and found that both sides were working. I plugged the stove back in and everything is working fine! Thanks for your advice.
Why are you praising the Lord? YOU fixed it.

car sits uneven
hey guys, I have a little issue with my 68 Camaro that I've been trying to figure out for a while. My problem is that the car sits about 1/2" higher on the right side, both front and rear. The suspension parts are all new, made by reputable companies. The one thing that I do need to replace are the body bushings, mainly the ones at the rear of the front subframe. They are almost non-existant. I was thinking that if the passenger side bushing is in better shape, it could be contributing to the car sitting higher on that side. Also, the car has been in at least one accident in it's life. The rear frame rails have been pulled and welded, and I know the front subframe is out of whack. when I aligned it a few monthes ago it was pretty obvious. But the car handles well, drives great, and I was able to align it properly. If anyone has ideas/suggestions I'd be happy to hear them. thanks
Quit letting fat guys drive your car. Either that or lay off the pasta.
I have actually seen cars where the driver's weight change the vehicle stance.
many cars do sag with age
i have noticed range rovers they have four coil suspension
are incredibly lopsided
you may try swapping the coils side to side and some imports have a rubber pad about a have inch thick between the coil and the body one of these on top of your coils may be a tonic
please be careful when removing coil springs they can bite hard
if your unsure get a pro to help
1/2 in is nothing to wrry about. I'm sure you can't even notice it. If you can, you have a much better eye than most of us. If everything looks normal, don't worry aqbout it.
I had one like that once the car was twisted. The guy didn't want to spend the money to fix it . (frame machine) So I put a set of frame connectors in it, cut about a quarter of a coil of to level it out sent him on his way. It's not the way I would have done it if it was mine. Go to a shop and get it checked out.
Like Lou suggested, I would take it to a reputable body or frame shop and have it checked. If possible take it to a shop that can measure it and provide you with a print-out showing the specs. If it is out of specs as far as the frame measurements are concerned, they should be able to give you a price on fixing it at that time. I would avoid any place that says that they can fix it for a set price, before the check and measure it, because they can't really know for sure what is wrong before hand.
As stated above have the frame checked .
Another thing that could poss. be holding up that side is, You say it has new suspension parts correct, did you install them your self? The reason I ask is some times people tighten the control arm bolts while the car is in the air and will put a bind on the bushings when the car is set back down. Causing a high front end or lopsided car. To check for this loosen the control arm bolts bounce the car a couple of times and then tighten them back up.
Hope this helps.
It's a 1/2 inch, people.
I bet if you measured every car that we all own, 1/2 inch would be about normal.
thanks, guys. I have been thinking of taking it to a chassis shop for a while. The coil and leaf springs on the car are hotchkis peices, and are about a year and a half old. I did install them my self, and I did torque the control arms & shackles on ground level. I know 1/2" isn't a lot, but my car is low, and I run some pretty large tires (I guess you could call it the pro-touring thing). I also like to drive the car hard. My left rear tire will rub occasiony on big bumps or hard corners. I'm running 285/40/17's on a 9.5" wheel. The right side never rubs because of that 1/2". The easiest fix would be to raise the back end with a smaller lowering block, but then the right side will be sitting higher than I want. This is what frustrates me. I don't want to just do a band-aid fix, so I guess the chassis shop is my best bet.
You did not say if you were measuring at the frame members or the body. If you are measuring at the body, the bushings may be contributing to the difference. The fact that the left tire rubs, may be from there being not enough clearance, period. A car regularly goes down the road with no one on the passenger's side. They USUALLY have someone on the driver's side. If your tire bottoms out, you may want to rethink your tire situation, as 1/2" should not cause that. You should have more clearance than that.
As for what Poncho said. I went out and measured 2 vehicles in my driveway. My 1995 Ranger PU has 3/4" difference from one side to the other. The passenger side is lower. Some of that may be from the lousey driveway, as there is usually a small puddle I have to step in to get in. My wife's 2003 Ford Escape is the same measurement on both sides.
old fashioned fix
flare those gaurds thatl fix the rubbing not great big ugly flares maybe you could lip the guards. a little letter to Dr Chop

There has been a consistent open verbal campaign against Roma people in Hungary by those who view members of this group as inferior and not true Hungarians. In the past few weeks, several Romas were killed or injured in attacks upon them in public or in their homes. Justice Minister Tibor Draskovics is proposing an amendment to the Constitution of Hungary which would strictly prohibit the use of hate speech and admits in sponsoring such laws he might be weakening freedom of speech and the press. His comments came in the wake of statements from the European Council that Hungary had not done enough to protect the rights of minorities against being physically and emotionally assaulted. Changes to the Constitution require a two-thirds vote which would require a coalition of political parties to pass such changes.
Freedom of speech and the press are the foundation of any free society. There will always be those who spout the rhetoric of hate, but they should be silenced in the free market of ideas, not by prison sentences. A physical assault on people is already a criminal act so there is no need to signal out a particular group. Enforce laws on the books. Every time a society limits freedom for what they consider the "right reasons" in the following years, those who hate freedom are able to use the same laws against those who stand for freedom. l

A collection of two titles authored by Erwin McManus.
BARBARIAN WAY: Erwin McManus wasn't raised in a Christian home, so when he came to Christ as a college student, he didn't know the rules of the "religious club." He didn't do well in Shakespeare courses, so he didn't really understand the KJV Bible he was given either. But he did understand that prayer was a conversation, and he learned to talk to God and wait for answers. Erwin's way was passionate and rough around the edges-a sincere, barbaric journey to Christ.
SOUL CRAVINGS: We can spend our whole lives trying to satisfy the one insatiable part of our being, our soul craving. Our capacity for spiritual experience both proves our need for something greater than ourselves and leaves us wanting when we fill it with anything but God.
Soul Cravings is a powerful, down-to-earth exposition that interprets our need for intimacy, meaning, and destiny as common sense apologetics pointing to the existence of and our need for God. The book will deeply stir the reader to consider and chase after the spiritual implications of their soul's deepest longings.

Are advertising signs allowed on property?
Issue: A reader wants to know if residents can keep signs in their yard advertising for construction companies or landscapers if there is no work being done on the property. She also wants to know who to contact if someone has a sign that should be removed.
Status: Gregg Blando, property maintenance instructor, said contractors who have a permit and are working on a property may post a sign advertising their business as long as there is work actively going on, but as soon as the work is complete the signs should be removed. Blando said sign regulation is done on a complaint-basis so if a resident notices a sign that should not be posted they can contact inspection services at (414) 479-8907.
