Cast your vote for Freshpet's World's Greatest Pet Parent
Last month, we asked you to nominate someone you feel goes above and beyond as a pet parent. We received so many submissions about such wonderful, devoted pet parents it was hard to narrow it down to just five. Now we need your help selecting the World's Greatest Pet Parent from the finalists below. Don't forget to read their stories before you vote!
Our winner will be announced on Friday, March 8th.
[yop_poll id="2″]
MELISSA F., nominated by Pamela W.
"Melissa F. is devoted to her dogs and to improving conditions for all animals. Mel is a long time dog foster parent. When she saw Daisy, a yellow lab who had been a breeding dog at a puppy mill, cowering in the shelter, she knew she had to help. As a foster parent and then adopter, Mel brought Daisy out of her shell, slowly helping her to learn how to cope with the world. A short time later, Mel adopted Jasper, also a puppy mill dog.
Her final dog, Cupcake, was also a fearful foster. When Cupcake escaped her leash and ended up lost for several weeks, Mel coordinated a massive volunteer effort to find her. After several weeks, Cupcake was found with the help of someone who saw one of hundreds of posters Mel put up in the area where Cupcake was lost. With Cupcake's return, Mel knew she had to adopt the foster dog into her family.
Mel is devoted to her dogs, taking them regularly to the dog park, building their confidence and enriching their lives. She also helps other pet parents through her blog No Dog About It. She has given me tremendous support and advice when I've fostered a fearful dog.
I can't think of anyone who is a more outstanding Freshpet Parent."
TIFFANY P., nominated by Herbie
"Tiffany is an outstanding Freshpet Parent to our baby kitten, Casper. In March, she picked Casper up at a gas station when she noticed a box along the side of the road. Unfortunately, there were two other kittens; however, they had already gotten out of the box and had been hit by passing drivers. Lucky for baby Casper, he was very small and hadn't gotten out. Tiffany decided to rescue tiny Casper.
Today, Casper is almost 1 year old and has already faced health problems. Although Tiffany is a full time college student, she also works part time to help provide care for Casper. She does everything for Casper and he has really become a big part of our family as well as a huge part of Tiffany's life. While doing research for great healthy foods for cats she saw many great things from Freshpet. Although Casper is a very picky eater, he loves Freshpet; in addition it helps with his irritations and also urinary tract problems.
I believe Tiffany is such a great Freshpet parent because she has given this special kitty such a wonderful life not only by saving his life, but also by helping him cope with his health problems. I think that this is a great way to give back to her because she cares so much for animals, as well as works so hard to provide only the best for our kitten."
JUSTIN W., nominated by Roxie W.
"My name is Roxie, and I'm a 3 year old English Bulldog. I'm going to tell you why my daddy is the best pet parent in the world! We do EVERYTHING together! We love to watch movies (Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings) and eat together (I especially love it when daddy lets me have some of his breakfast, lunch, dinner or ice cream!!!). My daddy loves outdoor sports and one time mommy took a picture of daddy and me wearing quading goggles together. I want to be just like my daddy! Daddy loves me, even when I've done something wrong! One time I ran out of the front door because I wanted to go visit my favorite neighbor. Daddy ran after me as I calmly walked down the sidewalk. I knew I was in trouble so I ran up to my favorite neighbors door and laid down waiting for daddy. He caught up to me, picked me up, and flung me over his shoulder and brought me home! I thought it was so funny and one neighbor asked daddy if I was a sack of potatoes! My daddy also takes good care of me when I'm sick. I got very sick one year with lyme disease. I couldn't walk or anything! I was in so much pain. Daddy carried me down to the car and held me on the ride to the vet, carried me into the vets office, and comforted me as the vet examined me. I was so scared but daddy made me feel better! Even though I was so sick, I knew I had to eat and drink, and I would only eat and drink if daddy offered it to me. I love to sleep next to my daddy at night. My daddy takes such good care of me, and we have so much fun playing together and relaxing together and just enjoying life. I couldn't ask for a better daddy and he tells me all the time I am the best daughter! For all of these reasons and so many more my daddy is the best pet parent around!"
Cindy M., nominated by Raul G.
"My fiance Cindy goes above and beyond for cats, both hers and others. She has several special needs kitties that require alot of her time every day, from testing glucose levels and giving insulin shots, to giving subcutaneous fluids, to doling out heart medicines. She also helps transport special needs kitties that need to get from one place to another to get the care they need and she goes out and helps others learn about taking care of their newly diagnosed diabetic cats.
When I saw this contest I knew I had to enter her because of her latest deed. She has been sleeping on the bathroom floor all week with one of her kitties to make sure she doesn't feel alone while she heals from having surgery recently. Her kitty had a lump removed and subsequently removed her staples. After getting her back to the vet to get re-stapled, Cindy has slept with her every night on the bathroom floor to make sure she doesn't take them out again and that kitty doesn't get depressed by being segregated.
There is nothing my fiance wouldn't do for her kitties."
LOREN C., nominated by Tanya C.
"I nominated my sister Loren Cross because she is the best pet mom I know. Why you ask? She owns a pitbull named Rosie that she has had since she was 5 weeks old. Since then, she has become a real advocate for the breed in her community. At first, people gave her so many problems because of negative assumptions made about her pit bull. Her condo association even asked her to move because of the dog. My sister fought back by bringing the dog to condo meetings, showing them how well-trained her dog was, and what misconceptions people have about the breed. It took a lot of hard work, but she convinced the condo board that Rosie was not a vicious animal. She even got them to allow other owners to have bully breeds in the condo. She goes everywhere with Rosie to show people how great pitbulls are."

Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann beat out other Republicans to win the Iowa straw poll in Ames on Saturday, receiving 4,823 of the nearly 17,000 votes cast. She leaped far ahead of party favorite Mitt Romney, R-Mass., but barely topped U.S. Rep. Ron Paul. And the tea party darling's celebration was dampened as Texas Gov. Rick Perry announced his run for president that same day. —ARK
Los Angeles Times:
Michele Bachmann captured the famed Iowa straw poll in Ames Saturday, reaching a high-profile benchmark in her meteoric rise to a top-tier presidential candidate.
Bachmann made history as well, becoming the first woman to win the event. She received 4,823 votes out of the almost 17,000 votes cast. The turnout was a significant leap over four years ago but didn't approach the record of more than 23,000 votes cast back in 1999.
... Still, in spite of Bachmann's victory, the poll came on the day that Texas Gov. Rick Perry declared that he, too, will mount a presidential run, setting up a showdown in Iowa over the social and fiscal conservatives that dominate the caucuses here.

A straw poll win does not guarantee Bachmann victory in the caucuses. Mitt Romney won the poll in 2007 and lost to Mike Huckabee five months later.

My question is quite specific: Why are you electing to NOT perform fetal testing? Was your midwife/doctor supportive? How do you feel about your choice?
The question is not "Who is doing fetal testing", I know most are and totally understand and respect that decision.
We have chosen to not alow our baby to be genetically tested. Have a very supportive ob practice, though the genetic counselor at the hospital was pushy when I set up the 19 wk u/s. I feel great about my choice. Would like to hear from other women who are ON THE SAME PAGE.
Happy pregnancy to all Mommies!

Target: Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper
Goal: Conduct a full and impartial inquiry into the murders and disappearances of indigenous women in Canada
A visit by the Inter-American Commission of Human Rights has led to mounting attention towards the issue of deaths and disappearances of indigenous women in Canada. Various issues were brought up in the meeting, like the lack of aid the Royal Canadian Mounted Police gave to victims of violence, along with these victims suffering from police brutality and sexual assault.
There are 582 documented cases of missing and/or murdered indigenous women as of March 2010. Many of these killings took place between the 1960's and the 1990's, but 36 percent of these murders happened in just the 2000's. Unfortunately recent numbers have not been tallied due to cuts in funding. The Humans Rights Watch also released a report which detailed the inadequate police procedures regarding complaints and oversight procedures. To assure that a full and impartial inquiry is completed without bias, the Canadian government needs to ensure that the inquiry is a public and national one.
"This visit is an important step toward accountability for decades of murders and disappearances of indigenous women and girls in British Columbia," said Meghan Rhoad, women's rights researcher at Human Rights Watch. "Accountability is a necessity for the safe future of indigenous women and girls across Canada." It is imperative that the Canadian government show compassion to their indigenous groups. Many of these women and girls who have gone missing are not found. The police procedures need to be immediately fixed so these lost souls can be located. Prime Minister Stephen Harper is skeptical about the inquiry regarding hundreds of murders and disappearances. Various provinces and territories in the nation have announced their support for the investigation, why is the prime minister denying his? Sign this petition and urge an immediate inquiry in their deaths and disappearance.
Dear Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper,
I am writing this letter to ask you to conduct a full, impartial and national inquiry into the deaths and disappearances regarding the indigenous women and girls of your nation. It has come to my attention that there is a mounting level of violence towards these groups of people. Reports detail that families of these victims have asked for aid from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Force, but their assistance has been lacking. There are even reports of police brutality and sexual assault towards these women. 582 people have been documented as either missing or killed since the 1960's, with 36 percent of these incidents taking place in the 2000's. Due to cuts in funding, data regarding how many are missing and their ethnicities are no longer available. This knowledge is important as it could pinpoint why and how these women are disappearing and getting murdered. I realize that you are skeptical about supporting this inquiry but your provinces and territories have agreed to back this action. Do the right thing and issue an investigation.

Maybe not the CUE per se? Platinum curse?
I am again driving a loaner. I have had XTS Platinum in several times to dealer. Problems have been with CUE, ie: keeping phone paired, navigation system, voice recognition, etc. Three days ago, the CUE system broke down completely. CUE would start to intiate, then icons would come up, then would go black, then screen would come up in computer block letters saying "system initializing", then it would eventually go to icons, which again would not work. It's like it's caught in a loop and can't reboot.
Dealer service says diagnostics showed losts of defaults in old stack and none in new stack, but problem remains.
On top of that, while the radio works, it tends to go out when the CUE goes black. The backup camera also goes out.
Dealer who claims to have been in contact with Cadillac has had my car in several times and even replaced the "stack", which I assume is the center computer system. That has not changed anything. So, they don't seem to know what to do. They still have my car and say the earliest the Cadillac service rep will be in town is next week. So, that will be at least 9-10 days I haven't had my car in the 56 days I have owned it.
Has anybody had similar problem and if so, please relate, so I could tell my dealer what to do before Cadillac gets around to getting back to them?

Re: Maybe not the CUE per se? Platinum curse?
It is my personal feeling that if they have to start pulling your car apart to replace things, keeping in mind that this is a new, $60,000+ car, and everything you say is true, they should just give you another new car. This would go a long way in promoting good customer relations, and, standing behind your product......
Re: Maybe not the CUE per se? Platinum curse?
After 8 days in shop, I picked up my car. A Cadillac Cue engineer came to dealer and quickly diagnosed that a new controller interface was needed. While CUE is now working, there are still some problems with voice recognition and phone contacts. (I've re-paired phone, CUE recognizes contacts, but while VR works with numbers, it won't work with name tags. Name tags work fine from touch screen.) I'm not totally happy yet, but feel lucky to have car, most of which is great. I'll keep trying.
I believe the car can be an exceptional car. While my experience with CUE has not been great, I expect I may be in the minority.

Re: Maybe not the CUE per se? Platinum curse?
I can feel your pain!. My 2003 STS had voice control problems: pressing the button would only work 4 out of 10 times when starting the car. It sometimes would work if I shut down the engine and re-started it. They replaced the button twice, replaced the whole unit, replaced the board, took the whole Steering column apart. The manager of the company responsible for this stuff even had my car for 3 weeks while I was on holidays and they discussed the problem with with the engineer who developed this item. Unable to fix it. Cadillac offerred an "unspecified" discount if I would trade the car for a newer model. I liked the car otherwise and finally just gave up. If my yet to be delivered new XTS platinum shows the same problems and they can't fix it the first time round, it goes back. Period.

I have the same issue. The dealer returned mine this morning after 2 weeks waiting for "a GM Engineer" to come out. They say they replaced the center console and the interface module. It still does the same things. They were able to update the maps so the GPS works better. My main issue is that when you answer a phone call, it connects in hands free for a couple seconds and then switches to the handset. It defaults the purpose of having a Bluetooth phone connection when you have to push buttons on the console to switch the call back to the car. I am pairing with an iPhone. It also does some funny things. For example, you cannot turn on the passenger heated seats. You get the haptic feedback, but nothing happens. However, if you hit the driver side heated seat button once, which appears to do nothing, it then unlocks the passenger control. It is like a secret code. Seems to only be a problem with the Platinum version. I drove a Premium for 2 weeks with no issues. I guess I wait for a patch and them bring it back it. Is this what I get for buying American???

State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki, travelling with Secretary of State John Kerry, confirmed that the United States revoked Snowden's passport due to "felony arrest warrants" against the former government contractor.
"Persons wanted on felony charges, such as Mr Snowden, should not be allowed to proceed in any further international travel, other than is necessary to return him to the United States," Psaki said.
Psaki said the revocation of Snowden's passport was "routine and consistent with US regulations" in light of the charges against him.
"Such a revocation does not affect citizenship status," she said.
Snowden, who fled to Hong Kong to reveal sensational details of cyber-espionage by the United States, flew to Russia on a commercial flight and was requesting asylum from Ecuador's left-leaning government.

Motorola decided to go after these power users by shoehorning a 3300mAh battery into the Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX and Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX HD. And certainly the average battery inside your typical smartphone contains a larger capacity cell than what was in your phone just a year or two ago.
For those who still aren't happy with the battery life they are getting, last February silicon slinger Qualcomm released its BatteryGuru app in the Google Play Store. Now out of beta, the app adds to battery life by cutting off unnecessary connections, turning on Wi-Fi when possible. By learning how someone uses their smartphone, the app is designed to extend battery life while keeping the functions that are used daily. It takes 2 to 4 days for the app to learn how the phone is being used before the battery extending features kick in.
The Qualcomm Battery Guru is a free download from the Google Play Store, but there is one important caveat. Your phone must be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, and even then, not every model is supported. A recent update exterminated some bugs and added support for a number of foreign languages.

Symbol Light - Table
Product Description
We have taken a simple flat sign-like shape as a starting point and then applied a high gloss finish to create a crisp cut-out 3-dimensional form. The bulb hangs from the top of the "shade†in a modern take on the bare bulb in the attic look. There is also a table lamp version and both can be produced in virtually any colour to order.
Design: Cameron and Martin Fry – Date: May 2008
Brief History
Liqui was first created by Cameron Fry while he was still studying at university so that he had a name to put on products that he was making for friends and family. Cameron went on to graduate in 2007 having been short listed for New Designer of the Year which lead to him being picked up by a well known London lighting company for freelance work. But his passion for design and a continued desire to create a unique brand soon lead him to set up his own studio workshop. Subsequently Cameron has worked on several projects with his father Martin an artist and graphic designer and with their combined skill sets they are now endeavoring to build Liqui into a multi-faceted design practice.
The Brand
Liqui are a new design practice based in the UK who design and make innovative statement furniture and lighting. With their multi-disciplined approach they strive to create pieces that are in some way different to the norm - whether it's the materials that are used the combining of traditional with contemporary elements or the incorporation of graphic design into a 3-dimensional context. As far as possible they make things that have a minimum impact on the environment and this is often reflected in their choice of materials such as paper and cardboard. As well as an interesting range of products presently made by small batch production they also create bespoke pieces on commission.

High school plans media academy
LAFAYETTE, La. — "You're kickin' it with the QBall over at Northside radio: The Viking. This next song is by D.L. Menard. ... It's what Cajun folklorist Barry Jean Ancelet called the most played and recorded song. It sold over 500,000 copies in 1962 alone."
Cue Menard's "The Back Door."
Listeners may soon have the chance to tune in to QBall — Northside High freshman Quenakian Noel.
[PHOTO: Northside High School Radio Students, from left, D'Andre Pruitt, Alexus Nelson and Marcus Mitchell work on the scripts for their radio shows recently in Lafayette, La. on Dec. 13, 2013. (AP Photo/The Baton Rouge Advocate, Bryan Tuck)]
The high school plans to launch an Internet radio station, The Viking, in the spring as it awaits a broadcast license from the Federal Communications Commission.
Meanwhile, Noel and his classmates have written and researched scripts for three-hour shows on Louisiana music that are ready for production as part of a new broadcasting class offered at Northside High.
"I hope that they'll be able to get in the studio this spring and do their shows," Northside High teacher Jay Redmond said.
The radio station is part of the school's plan to create a new media academy at Northside to prepare students for careers in the media — broadcast, print journalism and film.
"This is to get us started. We want this to be a full academy to give students from across the parish this opportunity," Redmond said.
He said Northside Principal Melinda Voorhies visited the radio program he started at Tara High School in Baton Rouge and recruited him to Lafayette.
The Lafayette Parish School Board recently approved $112,000 for startup costs for the radio station. The money will be used to pay for construction of a broadcast studio and to buy equipment and new technology to get the radio station online initially and over the airwaves later.
The school plans to set up the Internet station while awaiting an FCC license to broadcast over the air, Redmond said.
The goal is to produce an educational radio station that would operate around the clock daily featuring Louisiana music with shows produced by students.
Teachers will have some air time, too.
"We'd like teachers to have the chance to air educational programming to help students with their homework," Redmond said.
The Northside program started in August with about 40 students who take either the broadcast writing class or a 30-minute elective class to produce the campus' newspaper, The Viking Scroll.
As part of their broadcast class, students have done research to provide listeners interesting facts about the musicians and the songs that are part of each show, he said.
Students produced shows such as "A Black Tie Event," which features symphonies from across Louisiana; "The Washboard," featuring zydeco; "Fais Do-Do," Cajun dance music; and "Urban Landscape," Louisiana hip-hop.
"I was surprised at how much of an impact Louisiana's music has had on today's music," said Noel, the Northside freshman with the QBall moniker.
For students like Malik Jean-Louis, 15, the classes offer a chance to explore his career interest.
"One day, I plan to be a radio DJ," the Northside sophomore said.
His ambitions aren't unlike those of his classmates.
In August, Joshua Calhoun, 17, plans to attend Southern University and major in mass communications. Calhoun is editor of The Viking Scroll, the campus newspaper.
Fellow senior, Jakeyla Chavis, 17, said she may study journalism in college next year because she's enjoyed mining stories on campus and finding interesting angles to frame them.
"You're also interviewing people and improving your communication skills," Chavis said.
It also makes you stretch your comfort zone, said senior Edward Demangeaux, 18. "You've got to come out of your shell."
Redmond said he's been impressed by his students' hard work and interest.
"These kids have a work ethic like you wouldn't believe," Redmond said.
"There is a broad base of talent here to populate the next generation of media."

Lukas Podolski believes Santi Cazorla's diminutive stature makes him a real handful for defenders in the Premier League.
The Spain international has enjoyed a superb first season in English football and scored his 10th and 11th goals of the campaign against Aston Villa last weekend.
Up next×
Podolski says the 27-year-old has quickly become a key member of the Arsenal side and has all the attributes to cause terror in opposition defences.
"He is very important for us," the Germany international told Arsenal Player. "I knew him from his time at Malaga and Villarreal and he was the same there, a great player.
"You see it in the Premier League now, he has scored a lot of goals and created a lot of chances. He is a very important part of our team.
"His left and right foot are both very strong, he has very good technique and is very quick.
"He is small and it is not easy for defenders in the Premier League because they are all so tall. He is fast and creates a lot of chances for us."

The only thing to keep in mind is that they run lower octane fuels due to the high altitude...make sure you run at least the minimum your truck requires (IIRC, 85 octane is considered "regular" unleaded, so you will likely be running a mid-grade).

Target: Humane Society of the United States
Goal: Protect Maine bears from cruel hunting and baiting practices
The Joint Standing Committee for Inland Fisheries and Wildlife in Maine recently deemed an important bear protection measure as "ought not to pass" despite many aspects of cruelty involved in bear hunting. The bill, backed by the Humane Society of the United States, sought to protect bears from unsporting practices that cause unnecessary suffering, such as snares and hound chases. While the Joint Committee unanimously opposed the bill, the Humane Society can still fight back with a referendum in 2014 (proposing a ban for the same aspects of bear hunting as the original bill) and continue to fight for an end to bear baiting in the state for good. Urge them to continue this legal battle until cruel bear baiting is illegal in Maine.
A nearly identical measure was voted down in 2004, but it is likely that the increasingly severe issue of bear baiting will not be ignored by animal rights groups. The Humane Society has already pledged to ask voters to pass a new law via a November 2014 ballot question, but it would only serve to eliminate certain aspects of hunting. Since the bear protection act is very likely to be voted down, it is necessary to take additional steps to ban bear baiting in Maine, and increasing awareness may be a key factor.
Sportsmen and women of Maine successfully rallied against the bear protection act earlier this month by swaying the committee to vote not in favor. This interest group convinced the small committee that the measure was unnecessary and even infringed on hunter's rights. If animal rights groups can take the same approach by raising awareness and rallying support to protect Maine bears, their proposals have a greater chance of success in the future.
At present, the bear protection act seeks to ban bear trapping and hunting with dogs, prohibit the tracking of wounded bear with hounds, ban hunting between January 1st and July 31st, and limit the bear bag limit to one bear per hunter. Opponents of the bill claim it infringes on their rights to hunt, but animal protection groups understand that hunting methods are often cruel and unnecessary. Bears are lured into snares and left to suffer for hours before they are found and shot. Hunters that use hounds to bait bear are no better, causing the animal unnecessary physical and emotional suffering. Defenseless bears are chased by hounds until they are forced to take shelter in trees due to extreme exhaustion. They are then shot from the branches and killed.
Too many believe they are entitled to kill or harm animals because it is their right as hunters. This is a sadly misled perspective, and one that causes unnecessary suffering to precious wildlife. Urge the Humane Society of the United States to raise awareness of cruel bear baiting methods, and continue to fight hunting interest groups in court until Maine bears receive comprehensive protection.
Dear Humane Society of the United States,
I applaud you for your efforts to protect bears from cruel baiting and hunting methods in Maine. While the 2013 bear protection act is not likely to pass, I urge you to continue this fight by initiating a referendum in 2014 that would effectively ban certain aspects of bear hunting, and I encourage you to raise awareness of this issue as many are not familiar with the cruelty of bear baiting.
If hunter's rights groups can successfully sway a committee against bear protection laws, a well-informed group of citizens can rally together to raise a voice for justice. Please do not give up, and please do not wait another decade to present additional protection measures. Bears in Maine need your help now, and I support your cause.

The Fresh Fruit Cleanse is a 1, 3, 5 or 7 day cleanse with delicious and nutritious all-fruit recipes that allow you to eat AND lose weight. Fruit cleansing is one of the healthiest and nutritious ways to lose weight and feel great. There are so many nutritional benefits to fruit, which is, nature's most effective cleanser. Fruit supplies energy, antioxidants, essential vitamins and minerals, and, is low in calories. By fruit cleansing and giving your body a rest from the heavier foods which are normally eaten, it allows your digestive system to detoxify, getting rid of toxins and wastes and restoring harmony and balance to your entire body.
With dishes like Chocolate Pudding, Spaghetti Squash, Coconut Blueberry Smoothies, Tomato Basil Soup and Avocado Salad with Green Olives you'll enjoy cleansing, losing weight, feeling better, looking great, detoxifying your body, increasing your energy and improving mental clarity WHILE you get to eat satisfying and delicious food.
An all-fruit cleanse even for just a day is a powerful practice for resetting yourself in a healthy way. You will notice you have more time to meditate and reflect on what matters most in life. You can choose to eat the same fruit throughout the entire day or to vary the fruits. Either way, you will feel better and healthier. You may find there is a particular day of the week that appeals to you for cleansing, and you may prefer to cleanse on the same day each week. Or you can go through the 1-Day Fruit Blast any time you are inspired to, because any day of the week is a good day to rejuvenate yourself with an all-fruit cleanse.
I also appreciate the 1-Day Fruit Blast when I feel as if I'm coming down with something, which fortunately is very rarely. If you think you might be catching a cold or a bug, the 1-Day Fruit Blast will help you to cleanse your body and cells and rebuild your immune system.
A great choice for novice cleansers, the 3-Day Reset is the easiest of all the cleanses to go through and complete. This is my favorite cleanse to do anytime of the year when I feel I've been overindulgent in what I've eaten or the choices I've made.
While weight loss may not be as significant as on the longer cleanses, you will still see some slimming results along with increased energy, a clearer mind, lighter body, and better skin. This cleanse also offers potential cleansing of other physical and mental or emotional conditions, such as allergies, headaches, insomnia, anxiety, mental lethargy, and depression.
A good time to go through the 3-Day Reset is after festive holiday weekends, such as Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, and Labor Day, to reset and rebalance yourself in every way.
Because the 5-Day Rebalance is a significantly longer cleanse, it's best to go through it during a time of seasonal change. That way, you can align yourself with the natural changes already unfolding. I find it best to begin this cleanse on either Monday or Tuesday and complete it on either Friday or Saturday.
The 5-Day Rebalance includes some larger meals to keep you going through the full 5 days. Yet, you will see greater weight loss results, as well as cleansing benefits, on this cleanse than on the shorter cleanses. You'll also have more time and energy to realign your priorities and focus on what's most important to you in life, whether that's nurturing your hobbies, interests, relationships, physical fitness, or anything else that makes you feel your best. Be sure you have time to rest during this cleanse and aren't required to engage in any strenuous physical, mental, or emotional activity.
The 7-Day Detox is great for more experienced cleansers--or first-time cleansers who are feeling ambitious and want to see major results.
Because you are nourishing your body with healthy food and nutrition, it's possible to work, attend to daily tasks, and exercise while on the 7-Day Detox, but it's good idea to plan the cleanse for a time when you have the option of resting more and doing less.
I think you will find, as I do, that going through this cleanse program in fall or spring produces maximum results: weight loss, cellular detoxification, revitalizing of internal organs and digestion, cleansing of the intestinal tract, glowing skin, and increased energy, mental clarity, and focus. As you awaken your willpower, you, too, will realize that you can reach your goals, whether that's a healthier body or a dream you'd like to achieve in life.
While you are cleansing on the Fresh Fruit Cleanse you can incorporate other cleansing techniques into your program, like a parasite cleanse, or, other additional remedies to intensify the cleansing effects on the liver, kidney and colon.
Even without adding these techniques you will still be cleansing all of the organs of the body. But, a few of the additional organ cleansing techniques discussed in the book can give you increased cleansing benefits from the Fresh Fruit Cleanse.
So, with the information in this book you can design your own cleansing program, from year-to-year, to make it as comprehensive as you like by adding in other cleansing techniques like a salt water flush or colonic, a kidney detox, liver cleanse, and/or a parasite cleanse depending on your cleansing needs.
Many food and juice cleanses are expensive costing anywhere from $70 - $100 per day just for juice! When you only drink liquids during a juice fast you aren't even getting the fiber your body receives from whole food, just the vitamins. The fiber is essential for optimally cleansing out the digestive tract, intestines and colon. So, it's much better to eat during a cleanse rather than go on a food fast and fruit is the most cleansing food you can eat because of the water and fiber. Occasionally, it's fine to fast with just liquids. But, again, the Fresh Fruit Cleanse is about transforming your choices and learning how to nourish your body, cells and self...not just for 1, 3, 5 or 7 days but for life.
If you want to experience optimal cleansing, the Fresh Fruit Cleanse is the way to go to feel and look your best and to give your body the greatest gift of healthy nutrition and radiant health there is. There's no need to deprive yourself of food... you can love food AND feel your very best. There are many different cleansing regimens, but the Fresh Fruit Cleanse is my favorite by far. I have been going through it every year, about twice a year, for 8 years and it only gets better, easier and more enjoyable each year I've gone through it.
With the wonderful recipes in this book, including, the many others I will find along the way, I can see myself enjoying the Fresh Fruit Cleanse on a regular basis throughout the rest of my life. I'm so grateful for this cleanse and all of the amazing, healthy, optimally nutritious and delicious recipes which were contributed to this book to make all of our lives and our health the best it can be.

There are several different methods of avoiding damage once you are hit by your opponent that occur in a very specific order. Each of these abilities has a specific way of checking to see if it works or not, and I hope to detail them all out for you below.
To start, there is a specific order in which the abilities are checked:
Parry, Palm Block (monks only), Dodge, Shield Block and Shadows (Gypsy guild spell).
Parry is a skill that encompasses a vast number of factors to determine if the skill succeeds or not once an attack lands. To begin, you start with a (Skill/2)% chance as a baseline for success, and add 10% to the roll if you are using either a two handed weapon OR a staff, spear or polearm (these bonuses do not stack and do not matter for a weapon held in your offhand, only a 'wielded' weapon counts). Another bonus is available to rangers who are dual wielding of +20%. At the end of the formula is a modifier in the event that you, the person parrying is blind. Additionally, all non-magic classes add their Hitroll/7% to their parry rate as well. Finally, all blind non-Drow (remember, they have the blindfighting racial buff), then divides the sum of this formula by 2.
This makes the formula:
Parry% = ((Skill/2)% + (2h or type modifier [10%]) + Dual Wield Modifier [20%] + Hitroll/7%) / Blind Modifier [2 if blind and not Drow]
Global Note: Dark Risings rounds down, always and forever.
Examples 1: A Draconian Ranger with 100 hit dice is dual wielding a polearm and any other weapon and has their parry skill at 100%. This would mean their parry chance works out to be (50% + 10% + 20% + 14%) = 94%. (Writers Note: This value seems absurd to me)
Example 2: A Kine Mage with 100% parry skill and a staff would be: 50% + 10% = 60%
Example 3: A Kine Barbarian with 108 hitroll wielding a 2h axe would be: 50% + 10% + 15% = 75%
Palm Block
Palm Block is a monk only parry alternative, and a much simpler skill to calculate than parry… and it's on hold until after I talk to Kes to make sure I have it correct. The big thing is there are actual stat checks in it (so high dex matters).
I'll let people know when this gets updated, but it matters to so few people I won't hold up posting the rest of the write up.
Dodge isn't as complex as parry, but there are still a few extra factors that work into the calculation.
To start, your base rate to dodge is your skill divided by 2. There is a level modifier on the ability (you have a lower dodge rate against higher level enemies - mainly changes your rates in PvE), as well as a hitroll modifier, associated with melee classes. Melee classes will decrease their opponents chance to dodge by (Hitroll / 10)%. Additionally, in PvP, being attacked with a weapon that you're vulnerable to will reduce your chance to dodge the attack by a flat 15%.
So, to try and put it all together in a formula, your chance to dodge is based on:
Chance = (Dodge Skill % / 2) +/- Level Differential (Usually 0 in PvP) - 15% (If vuln) - (Attackers Hitroll / 10)% [If attack is Melee]
Shield Block
Shield Block is one of the simplest checks. Your chance is (Skill / 5)% + 3%. That's it.
For Gypsies, shadows is the easiest check. You have a 30% chance to step into the shadows against an attack.
Dragon Punch
I'm not 100% certain where dragon punch works into the equation (the above abilities are all part of a single function for the order of checks), but the function does not seem to include dragon punch in it. I'd assume it comes after all of the above abilities.
The chance to fire is based on your base skill% / 6. There is then a level differential check, though it is very minimal as the result of the check is divided by 2. Your entire dexterity stat is added to your chance, but your opponent's entire stat value is subtracted (it acts as a check, but only indirectly in the code) and half of your strength stat is added to the chance.
If it fires, you will do your equipped weapons damoun in an attack back. If you are unarmed you will do bash damage back.
In addition to releasing this information, I am also releasing roughly 60,000 iterations of raw attack data I've collected on 1315 in the last few weeks thanks to Lafindan's combat scraping script. I would love to hear feedback on how the system currently works (in conjunction with the new AC system) to try and figure out some reasonable changes to make combat make a little more sense. I have some basic statistics done inside the file, but the data can be looked at in far more detailed ways.
You can find the data here. If there are other iterations of the data that would be helpful for someone to look at, please let me know and I can get it taken care of.
I'm also aware that there are some oddities with the data (mainly in the miss rates), we'll have to look into that in the near future as well.

Suzanne Jamieson, a senior lecturer in work and organisation studies at the University of Sydney, says that under the Government's plan, the recent "phenomenal" growth in lucrative foreign student enrolments will intensify, with more ill effects than good.
"It has real implications for staff workloads," says Jamieson, who joined the university's teaching staff 13 years ago after a career as a senior public servant.
The courses that face the greatest increase in lucrative foreign fee-paying students as the university chases funds are the masters by course work programs in commerce and business. "And they already attract vast numbers of students from overseas," Jamieson says, many of whom "struggle with the material" because of their poor English.
Lecturers will lose more and more teaching time to sorting out confusion and miscommunication, says Jamieson, who has seen class sizes in some undergraduate courses grow from 50 to 200: "For a while, they were getting no individual attention at all - there's always a time lag between the influx of students and any increase in staff."
The expected growth in student numbers under the Government plan will outstrip any boost in staff, Jamieson says.
And if lecturers are hired to match the demand from foreign enrolments, the university risks exposure to global economic troubles, she says. Funds from foreign student fees are "soft money", sensitive to factors beyond Australia's control: "When the last Asian economic problem occurred, I had Korean students in particular who had to pull out and go home . . . "
Yet, with all the problems Jamieson has experienced in the education sector - which she expects to worsen - she remains committed: "I instantly halved my pay packet when I joined the university, but it was the right thing to do."

Toronto's lagging productivity and innovation are well documented sore spots. But where remedies have focused mostly on investing in research and equipment, a new report sounds a different warning: The city's talent pool may not be deep enough to make a move up the global ranks.
Though Torontonians are a well-educated bunch compared with other world cities, hidden weaknesses are holding it back from maximizing its potential, says the Toronto Region Board of Trade's 2013 Scorecard on Prosperity. Among a dozen North American cities, Toronto's adults are second only to Calgary in the number of post-secondary credentials they hold, but Toronto has relatively few bachelor's and advanced degrees. Boosting more people into higher learning "will improve the economic performance of the region," the Scorecard argues, noting there is "no room for complacency."
The report points to three cities – San Francisco, Boston and Seattle – that lead North American in productivity and innovation, and also in the number of adults with a bachelor's or higher degree. In Toronto, 39 per cent of adults went no further than high school, while less than a third have a bachelor's or better. The call for more higher learning echoes the provincial government's goal of having 70 per cent of adults with some postsecondary education by 2020, anticipating a new generation of jobs that will require them.
Yet as the current national debate over a perceived skills gap shows, ramping up the population's education levels without building pathways and supports that connect them to careers could backfire, leading to underemployment and driving frustrated graduates to move away.
"Just producing [graduates] in any old thing at any given time doesn't necessarily help. You just set up a queuing problem then," said Don Drummond, a fellow at Queen's University and former chief economist at Toronto-Dominion Bank. "There are a whole range of operations where Toronto could become the world's centre, (and) do not presently have the human capital to do it, but that's not the impediment that has prevented that from happening."
The drive for more degrees
In many ways, Toronto's human capital is strong – problems with transportation, commercializing research, and weak venture capital are all bigger drags on the city's productivity, says Carol Wilding, the Board of Trade's president and chief executive. But "the talent is really what brings [innovation infrastructure] to life," she adds.
The city's apparent deficit in degrees is partly generational. Almost 40 per cent of Torontonians age 25-44 have at least a bachelor's degree, but only 20 per cent of its adults age 55 to 64 do. The country's boom in higher education enrolment is relatively recent, and Canada has more older workers with less education, says McMaster University economist Arthur Sweetman.
"But for the people newly entering the labour market, the reverse is true," he said. "[Canada is] moving up faster than other countries."
Still, Toronto struggles to match its younger generations with the right jobs.
In 2012, its comprehensive unemployment rate, which includes involuntary part-time workers and discouraged searchers, was 25.3 per cent for 15-to-24-year-olds, and 11.2 per cent for those age 25 to 34, according to Statistics Canada. Both figures are higher than in Vancouver, Calgary, Montreal or Halifax, and well above the national average.
Networking talent
With so many people already underemployed, it is far from clear where a new wave of talent would fit. The government funding infusions that drove a postsecondary enrolment boom for the last decade are drying up quickly, and education leaders increasingly acknowledge that simply flooding the job market with graduates without helping steer them to opportunities is no recipe for success.
"I don't believe in just saying that more degrees equals more productivity," said Robert Luke, assistant vice-president of research and innovation at George Brown College. "Education must be linked to the economy, right?"
Partnerships that link colleges or universities with industry to do research and development can build early bridges. The experience "socializes" students in a city and industry even before they finish school, Dr. Luke argues.
Noe T. Galeana, who came from Mexico to study in Canada in 2009, found full-time work with Clear Blue Technologies, the same Toronto-based green technology startup he did research for while he was a student in George Brown's electromechanical engineering technician program. A professor at the college recommended the recently graduated Mr. Galeana for an open job at Clear Blue, where he's now involved in steering prototypes to market.
"I'm gaining great experience," said Mr. Galeana, who feels he would likely "have been in a factory line, fixing some machines and probably bored of it" if he hadn't been connected to Clear Blue.
Yet for all the educated people Toronto produces, a substantial number slip away. About 30 per cent of the University of Toronto's 511,000 alumni have left the Toronto area, and nearly 9 per cent live outside Canada, half of them in the U.S. According to a survey of Canadians who graduated in 2005, 2 per cent of those with master's degrees and 12 per cent with PhDs were living in the United States two years later.
Faraz Siddiqui, 28, is one of the latest to leave Toronto. A U of T graduate with a master's degree in public health from John's Hopkins University in Baltimore, he has worked with Palestinian refugees in Lebanon for the United Nations and interned doing health research at Georgetown University's law school. Earlier this week, he boarded a bus to Baltimore, where he was offered a full-time, public-health job with the city.
"I interviewed [in Toronto], I would like to stay, but it seems like the competition is so [fierce]," Mr. Siddiqui said. Tapping his Toronto network to find opportunities "didn't pan out" – rather, it was a Baltimore contact who gave him the "little nudge" he needed to land work down south.
Clusters as magnets
Many people still think talk of growing Toronto's degree-holding class is putting the cart before the horse.
"If you're hiring someone with a BA or a master's degree or a PhD, they need to have the plant and equipment, they need the computers to make them productive. And it's not clear that Canadian firms are investing," Dr. Sweetman said. That's where industry clusters might help steer the way. Boston's booming productivity revolves around an education cluster with a vast number of universities, colleges and R&D enterprises that helped nurture a concentration of innovative business, information and medical technology ventures paying wages well ahead of U.S. averages.
Closer to home, Mr. Drummond suggests it is entirely reasonable to suggest "Toronto should be the world centre for the study and practice of financial sector risk," or a number of other finance niches, but is missing the collective vision to make it a reality. "There's a lack of confidence, as usual, in Canada, there's a lack of ambition," he said. "And yeah, there would be, then, a lack of skilled talent to fill that. But having 10,000 people with PhDs in financial sector risk walking around Bay Street is not going to do an awful lot on its own."
The immigration factor
Out of 24 major world cities, from London to New York, Paris to Tokyo, Toronto's population has the highest proportion of immigrants – 46 per cent of residents are foreign born. But not enough new arrivals are highly skilled, and those that are tend to be underappreciated, according to the 2013 Scorecard on Prosperity.
Among Toronto's new immigrant population, 55 per cent have a university degree, good for just seventh place among a dozen North American cities, and behind Calgary, Vancouver, Montreal and Halifax. Making matters worse, Toronto fails to maximize its new immigrants' skills, with 40 per cent making "a downward shift in their career" when they arrive. The cost to Toronto's economy is between $1.5-billion and $2-billion each year, the report says. At the same time, Canada is accepting near-record levels of temporary foreign workers for jobs that employers say they cannot fill with local talent, with much of the growth in lower-skill jobs.
"When you have that kind of competition at the bottom of a wage pool, it actually has a downward effect on wages just above it," said Armine Yalnizyan, senior economist at the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives. "So it will affect those economic immigrants."Report Typo/Error

Lola has Mange
We had noticed she was scratching like crazy and then she developed a bald patch next to her eye, we thought it was due to changing her food but called the vet anyways,
The vet saw her right away and managed to find a semi hairless spot on her front leg so he did a scrape test and confirmed she has demodex!!
So now she is on advance multi for the next 3 months.
Poor thing, no wonder she was so itchy !
For those of you who;s dogs had this, how fast did you see the dog stop scratching?

silicone gel breast implants (see NYT summary here). Based on testimony and evidence presented, the FDA has finally agreed that the suggestion that patients need routine MRI screening of their implants is no longer one they support. This is bringing the United States into line with the rest of the world on being more pragmatic on the issue and reserving workup for symptomatic patients only. Recent papers in the surgery literature have been reporting that MRI has been associated with overestimation of rupture rates, particularly when applied to asymptomatic patients. The panel also concluded that no new evidence has been presented to change prior determinations that silicone implants are not causally linked to any known systemic illness.

Three Kentucky men were arrested Tuesday in Brimfield after allegedly electronically manipulating skill game machines to produce winning tickets.
Homer Helton, 29, of Ashcamp, Ky.; T.J. Sanders, 29, of Elkhorn City, Ky.; and Michael K. Sanders, 31, of Pikeville, Ky., were arrested and charged with five felonies: One count each of grand theft, complicity to grand theft and unauthorized use of property, all fourth-degree felonies, and two counts each of possession of criminal tools, all fifth-degree felonies.
All three were arraigned Wednesday in Portage County Municipal Court in Ravenna and ordered held in the Portage County jail on 10 percent of $15,000 bond.
Brimfield Police Chief David Oliver said officers were called to Winns Zone, one of the township's skill game parlors, "for three mopes who were cheating the games and coming away with lots of cash," he wrote on the police department's Facebook page.
Oliver said an investigation revealed the men had hit other locations that same morning -- at least three in two other counties. About $12,435 in cash, lock picking tools and keys to slot machines were recovered by police, he said.
The three were arrested and taken to the Brimfield Police Department.
Once there, Oliver said they gave varying stories about why they were in Ohio in the first place.
"All three are from Kentucky and according to which one of the three you are talking to, they are (pick one) 'out driving around,' 'visiting a cousin in Shelby,' or 'going to a car auction,'" Oliver wrote.

Sezwho, they probably lost. They got off an exit early, they were lookin for Ravenna ....lol
Yep your right, surprised Ravenna Eco director has not brought some skilled gaming to the city! We got all the other bs to go with it.
These kinds of businesses do nothing but draw the fast dollar criminals. These games of skill are BS. They control just who and how much you win, just like the Casinos. I guess they did not like it when these boys cheated them for a change.
Thanks for the info Hiram.
Redleg6, The parlors are basically casinos although the owners claim they differ from casinos in that the games involve skill, such as timing and practice, while gambling does not. These parlors have been in news and subject of controversy for a couple of years now. If there's anything else you need help understanding, I am here for you.
Don't the drug dealers and criminals know by now to stay out of Brimfield??
They all end up getting busted there.
Stay out in the county or in Ravenna or Kent where criminals roam freely.
Thanks for the observation Hiram. Do you know what a skill game parlor is?
Redleg6 I agree with you. You should get out more, maybe make some friends. You appear to spend allot of your time posting and complaining about some really trivial issues.
I need to get out more, What is a Skill Game Parlor?

I am 67 and retired, so we are similar in that respect. In my spare time, I like to work on the BMW and other cars. It is a hobby and I truly enjoy it. However, I would never attempt to bring back to working condition a collision damaged car. There are too many suspension hard points, body fit lines, critical bolt hole alignments, etc., that must be within fractions of millimeters specifications. Hitting a ground obstruction and tearing things up underneath is probably the worst case I can think of.
Back in the day, you could pull the body off, and send a damaged frame out to be straightened, or even replaced. Afterwards, the body panels fit would usually be pretty good, and if it didn't crab-walk down the street, you'd be fine. Trying to straighten a unibody is like trying to reverse the crash forces which I think is next to impossible.
You may get lucky and get most of the critical dimensions back to spec; however, usually getting one dimension is a compromise and you lose others. In my opinion, what could have been a fun project, soon heads south and turns into a frustrating and expensive mistake. Not trying to rain on your parade, but as far as I am concerned the phrase, "Spending good money after bad." is applicable for most collision damaged, salvage projects.

It is on! Fancy that.
Hello, and welcome back to the Jackson Hole Art Blog, where, this summer, I'll be working to keep you updated on the arts scene in and around Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Plein air events will be prominent, particularly in July, when the Rocky Mountain Plein Air Painters return to Grand Teton National Park to paint for two weeks, interact with wildlife, the visiting public and demonstrate their legendary talents.
Jackson's new artist community continues to grow despite a raging, excruciating housing shortage. The muse is the message, and extracting yourself from your muse is painful. Jackson arts are exploding, and for the most part have beautified and enhanced the area. Creativity includes murals, installations, public art, and the Western art scene continuing to diversify its genres.
There is a "creative conundrum' in play. To my knowledge the most recent, all-inclusive write-up on issues affecting our artists belongs to Planet Jackson Hole, and you can read it here. I posted a response to the article:

Scalloped Creamy Cabbage Casserole RecipeRead Reviews Be the first to add a review
5 1
I always read the food section in newspapers and magazines. If I find a recipe that I think my family will like, I test it out. I found this one while traveling some years ago. My family like it and it has become one of our favorites.
Recommended: 54 Amazing Ways to Love Winter Veggies
- 5 to 6 cups shredded cabbage
- 2 medium onions, finely chopped
- 1 medium green pepper, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup butter
- 2 cups (8 ounces) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 cups coarsely crushed sour cream and chive croutons, divided
- 1 cup milk or half-and-half cream
- In a large saucepan, cook cabbage in boiling salted water for 4-5 minutes or until almost tender; drain. In a smaller saucepan, saute onions and green pepper in butter until tender. Combine cabbage, onion-pepper mixture, cheese and 1-1/2 cups of croutons.
- Spoon into a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Pour milk or cream overall; do not stir. Sprinkle with remaining croutons. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until bubbly. Yield: 6-8 servings.

I literally just finished up my bottle of this and I love the guava/berry scent..it has a slight tropical twist to it. Kinda wish the scent lingered a little longer tho.
As all Suave bodywashs it lathers up and rinses well.
I wish this one wasn't limited edition=(

This is a new favorite. What I smell when I use it is a strong hit of citrusy berry. It lathers well and a 12 oz bottle is less than $2, so it's a bargain. I hope Suave will make this part of their regular line, because I think it's one of their best scents.
