For all those creepy people out there.
Hm. Doesn't seem like a pedophile, but he does look well-fed....
HAH! Awesome!
this is classic ....
I actually think wolves are way more trustworthy than human beings.
I like the sheep on the bench
Love it! His expression is great.
I trust wolves more than I trust most people.... but certainly not this guy!
Haha, this made me laugh. So cleverly done.
The lambs on the background give ths composition even more meaning!
Is he checking out all the sheep-people? XD
Never mind the Border Collie; better bring in the Pit Bull!

Private labs take over Colorado crime blood tests
DENVER (AP) - Colorado defense attorneys are concerned because private labs are taking over blood-alcohol tests and blood-drug samples normally sent to a state lab.
Beginning Monday, only three labs are certified to begin processing blood-drug specimens.
According to the Denver Post , the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment suspended state tests on June 28 after defense attorneys exposed an internal report by the health and environment department they say revealed potentially tainted lab results.

Head coach Anne Rounce of the Merrimack field hockey team has been selected as the 2011 Division II National Coach of the Year by the National Field Hockey Coaches Association. Rounce was presented with the award at the annual NFHCA Coaches Recognition Luncheon January 13 in Philadelphia, PA.
Rounce, the 2011 NFHCA North Region Coach of the Year, guided the Warriors to a school-record 17 wins and the program's first-ever Northeast-10 Conference Regular Season Championship this fall. Merrimack reached the finals of the Northeast-10 Conference Tournament before falling to UMass Lowell.
The Warriors earned their first-ever berth to the NCAA Tournament, earning the top seed in the North Region and a trip to the Final Four.
Under Rounce's tutelage, four players earned NFHCA All-America honors this season. April Daugherty (Wakefield, RI), Jen Otis (Penacook, NH) and Kerri Bergquist (Mashpee, MA) were all tabbed to the first team while Katie Zubkus (Dover, NH) hauled in second team accolades.
Rounce was also recognized by the Northeast-10 Conference as she was voted the Coach of the Year this season.
The Warriors placed eight on the all-conference squads this year while Daugherty earned Player of the Year honors and Bergquist was named Goalie of the Year.
Merrimack finished the fall attaining its highest national ranking in program history, No. 3 in the country.
After dropping the first game of the season, the Warriors rattled off a school-record 17-consecutive victories. Merrimack posted a 17-3 overall record and went undefeated in league play with a 10-0 mark this year.
Rounce, a 2007 Merrimack graduate, recently completed her fourth season on the Warriors' sideline.

All too often, it seems, the aim of an apologist can be to "win" an "argument," rather than to convert hearts, to save souls. In all we do, this should be our mission: to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ, and to bring our brothers and sisters to the fullness of life in Jesus and his Church.
Once upon a time, we were told to allow dissent from time-honored legal and moral norms in the name of "freedom of choice."
It's that time of year again — time to fight over commencement speakers. It happens every spring. Some Catholic college will feature a speaker who has taken public positions at odds with the church's teaching.
Looking back over the past four years, I can't pinpoint when or where the scale tipped. When my days became more "not-grieving" than grieving.
The recent tragic death of a rock musician has me thinking about St. Benedict.
The occasion is the solemn observance of Mother's Day, which incidentally is a special feast at the Sanctuary, to which the privilege of celebrating a "Mother's Day Mass" has been accorded by papal rescript.
Each year on May 18, I bake a special Polish cake to celebrate the birthday of Karol Wojtyla. St. John Paul II was canonized by Pope Francis three years ago. It was 12 years ago that I got this crazy idea to send Pope John Paul II a birthday gift.

DMM Climbing Gear
Latest Reviews
My first axe. When I started looking for an ice axe I came across a lot of options for general mountaineering use, but not a single one included a sturdy technical grade one. I wouldn't know if a basic grade axe could withstand anything else than basically walking on soft snow so I really wanted a technical one but not something "exotic". So a hybrid axe it is! For now it's just walking and cutting steps since I never encountered a glacier in Crete to give it a go on ice, but I feel confident when… Full review
Renegade 2
Not the lightest or the comfiest harness out there, but if you're looking for a good all rounder, this is possibly the best one on the market! DMM's Renegade 2 is an upgrade to the previous version in both aesthetics and functionality. They ditched the plastic gear loops for the better handling fabric ones, changed the color from a dismal grey to a fresh looking red trim and added a floating waist belt to allow a more adjustable fit, whatever your body shape. Harness don't really have a huge amount… Full review
Belay Master 2
Excellent product, vey well designed and made. it's perfect for the job (belaying/rappelling carabiner). Bought the Master 2 exclusively for my tube-type belay device and love it. I've used it now for a few weeks and plan to get a second one soon (backup in case of loss or theft). The "pivoting catch" assures me that my 'biner is locked properly and will not cross load whether belaying or rappelling. It's foolproof because of that folding catch and thus provides visual peace-of-mind for me and… Full review
Revolver Screwgate
Great little pulley biner combo. The revolver is a great piece of kit for top roping and glacier travel. It cuts down on rope drag, and it is essentially a built-in pulley, which gives you a huge mechanical advantage especially as a secondary part to crevasse rescue kit. Only complaint is that it won't work with a Petzl Tibloc. Prussicks seem to go fine. Very durable and while the gate opening is a bit narrow, it is easy enough to figure out. Full review
Excellent mountaineering axe for more technical use. This is a excellent lightweight mountaineering axe. It is very useful in all situations. It has a slight curve, making it excellent for swinging. It's worth practicing arrests with it if you aren't used to curved tools. It's comfortable in the hand and just all a round great mountaineering axe. It works great on glaciers, and performs well on steep sow gullies. I couldn't be happier. I do wish it had an adjustable plastic handle. Full review

The Mavericks aren't the usual thing. They aren't the usual anything! Making their name in the Miami punk clubs playing hard country to audiences who were knocked-out by their sound, the five-piece were signed to MCA Nashville.
Soon a wider audience discovered this unique band, and played their loose and feverish tunes. Crossing America led to crossing the Atlantic, and now the whole world can experience The Mavericks' rare balance of vintage music and contemporary attitude.

Affluent Lifestyle Guide
Each year, we round up some of the best over-the-top Valentine's Day hotel packages from across the globe. With price tags of $10,000 and up, this year's list had no shortage of elaborate offerings, and choosing only 10 proved to be difficult. But whether you want to surprise your darling with a trip to New York, hit the beaches of Anguilla or go snorkeling in Thailand, these offers have just about everything you'd need for the perfect V-Day. Starting from $10,000 and working our way up, here are the most extravagant packages to indulge in this lover's holiday:
Ayutthaya is a stunning historical city with a spiritual richness that is now preserved as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Just a 30-minute drive northwest of Bangkok, you can visit Ayutthaya for a quick afternoon excursion, but an overnight stay is recommended.
Taking place over three days, Belmond's Eastern and Oriental express train takes travelers from Singapore to Malaysia and ends in Bangkok. The train can accommodate up to 200 passengers, and based on the number of guests, will add or take away railway cars. Indoors the cars feature rich rosewood and elm paneling, brass fixtures and elegant lighting.
Mena, a 35-year-old Indian elephant that was rescued from a Thai logging camp 10 years ago, was my ride for the afternoon. We waded into the Ruak River as my mahout (elephant trainer) barked his orders for her to turn, stop and sit down. The water was cold but we couldn't care less, as we were having the most memorable experiences of our lives riding these amazing animals.This excursion is only part of what makes a stay at the Four Seasons Golden Triangle so great.
Architecture firm Büro Ole Scheeren was reaching for the stars when they designed the MahaNakhon tower, literally. The structure which was officially introduced to the world on Monday is now Bangkok's tallest skyscraper. At 1,029 feet, the building has 77 towers filled with a mix of retail, hotel and residential units.
Thailand is well known for its white sand beaches and beautiful crystal clear blue waters, all set amongst lush tropical jungles. When it comes to accommodations, the country's high-end hotels are renowned for their service and plethora of amenities including poolside retreats and exciting water sports. If you've ever had a Thai massage, then you'll understand why it's also a haven for spa lovers. With so great many options for resorts to choose from, here's a list of our favorite properties scattered across Thailand.
Yesterday, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts announced three new private jet journeys: Culinary Discoveries, Global Getaway and International Intrigue. The three-week itineraries will include stops in some of the world's most sought-after destinations such as Seoul, Mumbai, Lisbon, Koh Samui, Beijing and Budapest.
Most people are familiar with the traditions and festivities of Chinese New Year. But what some may not realize is that between Asian cultures, the Lunar New Year is celebrated on different days and in various ways. This year, Chinese New Year fell on Monday, February 8, but in India they party it up for five days in October. Tibet's celebrations, which begin on February 22, include dough balls that will tell your loved ones (or enemies) exactly how you feel about them.
We've seen some pretty cool, well-designed villas in our time, but Keemala's accommodations in Phuket might be some of our favorites. Opened in December 2015, the wellness-focused resort was designed by Architect Space and interior designer Pisit Aongskultong. The pair envisioned a property that would blend in with the surrounding Thai jungle and be created as structures that the island's indigenous clans might have once lived in.
Sometimes I wonder if I chose a life of traveling or if it chose me; the age-old "What came first?" question. At five it was El Salvador, at 16 it was all about Costa Rica, and later Spain sealed my love for the world. A plethora of destinations followed over the years. Twenty five years after that first overseas trip, Thailand brought me right back to that same place of awe and discovery.
Around the world, Ritz-Carlton resorts and hotels are known for the elegance, grandeur and exemplary service. But what may be lesser known is that their portfolio also includes a collection of prestigious villas and cottages in spectacular destinations. The brand has placed some of their most unique accommodations in Thailand, China, Spain, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Georgia and Puerto Rico.
I've never met anyone who visited Thailand and didn't immediately fall in love with it. Whether you are the type to spend hours sunbathing on the beach or exploring tropical jungles, Thailand is where you should be doing it. Don't know where to go? Try Villa Mayavee on the island of Phuket, because…just look at it!
With the year coming to an end in just seven short weeks, we thought we'd get plans for 2015 started with a look at next year's cruises through Asia. Pairing together places such as Singapore with Bali and Mynamar with Tokyo, we couldn't get enough of all the offerings available next year. We handpicked six of our favorites to share to give you a little bit of wanderlust for the continent filled with ancient wonders, mouth-watering cuisine and a deeply spiritual heritage.
Boasting an impressive resume of 10 esteemed designers including Chris Jones, Joseph Walsh, A-Cero, Graham Lamb and the Campana Brothers, the all-inclusive Iniala Beach House located on Natai beach in Thailand will probably make you cry tears of joy upon arrival. Seriously, we wouldn't lie to you. As the brain child of philanthropist Mark Weingard, the property is made up of three villas and a penthouse suite with a combined total of 10 bedrooms.
It is rare to find a hotel that blends luxury, history and a unique sense of place under one roof, but travelers who venture to the UNESCO World Heritage-listed town of Luang Prabang, nestled at the confluence of the Mekong and Nam Khan rivers, can find all three at Amantaka.

When you're heading into the field this hunting season, don't forget to think of your backup weapon. You spend considerable time planning your trip, scouting your game, acquiring your tags and perfecting your rifle or archery skills. When that trophy buck or bull presents himself – you'll be ready. The real question is: are you ready for EVERYTHING you may encounter?
Your primary weapon isn't always the best choice. Your rifle or bow may bring home the trophy, but what if your elk bugling attracts a stalking cougar? Or when your downwind spot and stalk finds you startling a bear following the same whitetail? What if you encounter a large predator in low light on your way to the stand? Or when you walk up on a coiled rattler? What if your gut pile attracts more visitors than just your picture-snapping buddy?
It's possible that your rifle or bow isn't available when you need it, or it's damaged. You may find yourself in close quarters, defending against a charging predator or a striking snake. The point is: your hunting trip is well planned, but a surprise encounter with dangerous game never is.
Defending my family and myself is my responsibility to God for His precious gift of life. I keep and bear arms accordingly, and the Crimson Trace laser sighting system optimizes my capabilities to survive. It's quality stuff for quality of life.
-Ted Nugent - President of United Sportsmen for America, Author and Musician
When your laser equipped backup revolver or semi-automatic is deployed, the laser automatically springs to life. We refer to this benefit as "Instinctive Activation". Should the need arise for you to deploy your backup – your safety and possibly your life is in danger. In low light or close range conditions when you need an accurate shot, you can count on a Crimson Trace laser.
As a hunter, if you're fortunate enough to live in a state where hunting with laser-equipped handguns is legal, Crimson Trace offers a new level of precision and shot confidence. The perfect shot opportunity is coveted and rare, and your trophy will likely not stand around and wait for the perfect angle. When the red dot of your Lasergrips is placed on target, you'll have the confidence to take that shot.

HomeTeam Hot Shots
A spotlight on the Times' bay area players of the week.
Female Hot Shot: Alea White, Cambridge Christian
Sport: Softball
Skinny: How do you follow up a no-hitter with — thanks to a few dropped balls — 18 strikeouts in five innings? White struck out 14 opponents and had a single in a 3-1 road win over defending state semifinalist Academy at the Lakes. Lancers coach Kevin Hickinbotham credits White's versatility and her experience for her success. The sophomore can throw six pitches effectively, and because she's been playing varsity ball since seventh grade, she's already maturing into a seasoned leader. "It's a complete package," Hickinbotham said. White is one of Tampa Bay's leaders with a .744 batting average and almost 200 strikeouts.
Male Hot Shot: Matt VanJelgerhuis, Largo
Sport: Baseball
Skinny: The junior right-hander is not overpowering, but he is consistent. VanJelgerhuis threw a complete-game no-hitter in a 3-0 win over Lakewood. It was just the fifth win of the season for the Packers, but it was VanJelgerhuis' third win in six starts. "I didn't even know it was a no-hitter until the game was over,'' Largo coach Shawn Brown said. "He was just cruising along and the guys behind him were making the routine plays. We haven't had a lot of wins this season, but when we do, it's usually Matt throwing a complete game.''

Seems our Brit friends have come up with yet another foolproof crime fighting tool, the helmet cam!:ahhhhh:
There are implications in this for the U.S., too.:frown:
LONDON -- Britain is taking its surveillance to a new level, strapping video cameras to the helmets of its famed bobbies -- a move the government says will cut down on paperwork and help prosecute criminals.
By providing dramatic footage of victims, suspects and witnesses, judges and jurors will be able to "see and hear the incident through the eyes and ears of the officer at the scene," Minister of State for Security Tony McNulty said.
The Home Office said it was allocating $6 million to fund the devices for Britain's 42 police forces -- enough to buy more than 2,000 cameras.
Police already use handheld cameras to monitor crowded events and the new head-mounted devices, worn around the ear or clipped on to a helmet, have been used on a trial basis by police in Plymouth, in southwestern England, since 2005. Similar cameras are used by security guards at sports venues to hunt for soccer hooligans.
Britain is not the first country to use such cameras, versions of which have been tested in Denmark. But the national rollout will tighten Britain's web of video surveillance, already the most extensive in the world. The country is watched over by a network of some 4 million closed-circuit cameras, and privacy advocates complain the average Briton is recorded as many as 300 times a day.
In a report on the Plymouth pilot project published by the Home Office on Thursday, policemen praised the head-held cameras for deterring bad behavior and providing excellent evidence against crooks.
They said rowdy youths quickly calmed when they realized they were being filmed, and those arrested for drunkenness seldom challenged police when shown videos of their behavior.
Prosecutors credited the cameras with emboldening victims of domestic violence to press charges against their partners, although the director of Rights of Women, Ranjit Kaur, said she has not been convinced the footage alone could help secure a conviction.
The Association of Chief Police Officers, an independent body of senior police officials in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, gave the devices a tepid welcome, cautioning that courts might someday expect everything police said to be backed by video evidence.
"The introduction of personal digital recording equipment for police officers and staff brings benefits and risks," the association said in a statement. "We need to guard against creating an expectation that all police activity ought to be supported by the use of digital recording technology."
Civil rights campaigner Liberty praised the guidelines for using the devices included in the Home Office report. Spokeswoman Jen Corlew noted that police were instructed to inform members of the public they were being recorded and that the footage not being used in an investigation had to be erased within a month of its creation.
But Ben Ward, Human Rights Watch's associate Europe director, expressed concern.
"The privacy questions raised by the plan will turn on whether the safeguards, including on notification and storage, are uniformly respected," he said in a telephone interview in London.
The American Civil Liberties Union also expressed concern, predicting the United States would soon follow Britain's lead and subject Americans to even more video surveillance.
"Head-mounted cameras are a little bit of a double edged sword when it comes to civil liberties," said Barry Steinhardt, director of the ACLU's technology and liberty program in Washington, D.C.
"They record police misconduct, improper interrogations and seem to have an effect on having police officers kept in line. But this just becomes another extension of widespread video surveillance," he said in a telephone interview.
Steinhardt predicted the U.S. would soon give police the same power since America already has followed the example of Britain, "the world's innovator when it comes to surveillance and surveillance technology."
Britain's Home Office said the cameras -- which have enough memory to hold 24 hours of video -- were not intended to record continuously. Officers would turn the devices on and off at their discretion, speaking into the camera after turning it on to explain where, when and why they were starting it. A second explanation was required before turning the device off.
The report also cautioned against taking extraneous video when entering private homes, and said officers should turn cameras off during strip searches. But it also threatened disciplinary action against officers who deliberately masked the camera's view or deleted video from the camera's memory.
The Home Office said it was exploring other uses for the devices, including fitting them with the ability to send video live to a command center, or special license-plate recognition software which would enable police to identify stolen or suspicious vehicles just by looking at them.

Secretary of State candidate visits Fremont County, meets with County10
(Lander, Wyo.) – Republican Secretary of State candidate Pete Illoway of Cheyenne is on the campaign trail and stopped into County10's office for a brief chat. Illoway will be in the area the next few days and plans on making appearances in the Lander and Dubois July Fourth parades before heading over to Casper.
Illoway is a former member of the Wyoming House of Representatives, having served from 1998 to 2012. From 2002 to 2004 he was the majority whip. He is currently a member of the Wyoming Business Council. He says his experience and current connections with the legislature would make him effective in the job.
"It's too important an office to allow someone with no experience to come in and play around for four years," he said.
Illoway said his ambitions don't run beyond the office of Secretary of State, unlike some who might use it as a stepping stone to the governor's office. "It's the nuts and bolts of state government," he said of the Secretary of State office. He also noted that he is not an attorney like the others running for the seat: Ed Buchanan of Torrington, Ed Murray of Cheyenne, and Clark Stith of Rock Springs.
While in town, Illoway visited the construction of the Lander Community Center and praised it as an example of good ways to leverage multiple grants at once.

New Planet - Where is Xena?
May 4, 2015
Where is "Xena"?
It's believed that the "10th planet" originated in the Kuiper Belt, a region beyond the orbit of Neptune and extending out perhaps 30 times the distance from Earth to the Sun.
The belt is believed to contain space rocks and other debris - including many comets - left over from formation of the Solar System. But comets aren't all the Kuiper Belt contains. In just the last two years, in fact, astronomers have found several objects ranging in size from about half that of Pluto up to the current 1.5-times-Pluto-size of planet "Xena".
It's believed that gravitational tugs from the outer planets alter the orbits of some Kuiper Belt objects, causing them to journey sunward and form medium-period comets like the famous Halley's Comet, as well as short-period comets that orbit the Sun in 20 years or less. It's also believed that gravitational tugs send objects outwards to orbit the Sun at great distances, and this appears to be the case "Xena", Sedna and other Kuiper Belt Objects.
As the accompanying diagram shows, "Xena" is in a highly elongated orbit that takes it out well beyond the realm of Pluto and then back in again. At its closest point, "Xena" comes within 38 AU (one AU equals the distance from the Earth to the Sun, or about 93 million miles) of the center of the Solar System. Then, 274 years later, it's out 97 AU, or some 9 billion miles from the Sun.
Currently, the planet is about as far away as it can get. Owners of big telescopes - those 14 inches and larger - can see the new planet in the constellation Cetus in the hours before dawn during the first half of August.

Day 1: Arrival
Upon arrival at Keflavík International Airport, you pick up your pre-booked rental car. If you arrive in the morning or afternoon, you might want to stop by at the Blue Lagoon on your way into the city of Reykjavík.
If arriving late, you will find your accommodation near the airport.
Day 2: Seals on Vatnsnes Peninsula & Skagafjörður
A drive northward along the ring road and through the Tunnel under Hvalfjörður fjord brings you to Borgarnes, where you might be interested in a visit to the Settlement Centre.
Continue over the Holtavörðuheiði plateau to North Iceland. Perhaps you would be interested in visiting the Seal Centre in the fishing village of Hvammstangi on Vatnsnes peninsula, where you can find out everything you never knew about seals! Nearby, on Vatnsnes peninsula, you will find marvelous spots for seal-watching.
Todays destination is Skagafjörður, an area well known for horse breeding. In Skagafjörður the local folk- and heritage museum in Glaumbær is worth a visit and you are in the right place if you want to try riding an Icelandic horse.
Day 3: Herring & Folk Music on the "Troll Peninsula" & Akureyri
Driving along the east coast of the Skagafjörður fjord, you reach the Tröllaskagi peninsula (literally Troll Peninsula) and to the fishing village of Siglufjörður, a former center of herring processing. You can learn about the herring golden age in Siglufjörður and Iceland in the local Herring Era Museum and about Icelandic folk music in the Folk Music Centre.
Leave Siglufjörður via the newly built tunnel of Héðinsfjarðargöng into Ólafsfjörður Fjord and the Ólafsfjarðargöng tunnel brings you onwards to Eyjafjörður Fjord and Akureyri, the Capital of the North.
Day 4: Lake Mývatn
You pass the Vaðlaheiði plateau on your way to Lake Mývatn. On the way, dont miss the gorgeous waterfall Goðafoss, a site that played an important role when Icelanders converted to Christianity.
Spend the rest of the day around Lake Mývatn. Walks to the pseudo-craters in Skútustaðir as well as in the lava field Dimmuborgir provide an interesting insight into volcanic history.
A bath in the warm water of the Nature Baths with a breathtaking view over the lake might very well be the perfect end to a good day.
Day 5: Ásbyrgi Canyon, Dettifoss Waterfall & Hot Sulphur Mud Springs of Námaskarð
A drive around Tjörnes peninsula can either start or end in Húsavík, but either way today you will see the horse-shoe shaped canyon Ásbyrgi before driving further along the east side of the glacial river Jökulsá á Fjöllum to visit the grand waterfall Dettifoss. Do not forget to stop by the foul-smelling boiling-hot sulphur mud springs in Námaskarð on the way back to your accommodation.
Day 6: Whale Watching from Húsavík & Waterfalls
A perfect start to the day would be a visit to the fishing village of Húsavík, Icelands whale-watching hotspot, where 3-hour whale watching tours are on offer several times a day in the high season.
An insiders tip for those interested in waterfalls would be the waterfall Aldeyjarfoss in Bárðardalur valley, situated in a tremendous wall of basalt columns. Your days journey ends in Akureyri town.
Day 7: Akureyri, the Arctic Circle & flight to Reykjavík
Explore Akureyri before noon and if you want we would be happy to help you arrange an air tour from Akureyri to the island of Grímsey, the northernmost inhabited point of Iceland, lying along the Arctic Circle.
Afterwards, you return your car at the airport in Akureyri and get on the 45-minute flight back to Reykjavík, where you will get to your accommodation by taxi (fare not included). Spend the remainder of the day exploring Reykjavík.
Day 8: Departure
You will be brought to Keflavík airport by the airport bus. If your flight is late in the afternoon or in the evening, you can take the airport bus that goes via the Blue Lagoon and stop there long enough for a nice, hot soak before heading onwards to the airport in time for your flight.
You can also add a few days, switch from a normal rental car to a 4WD and head to the highlands of Iceland.

Petplan offers some of the most comprehensive pet insurance on the market: Prescriptions, hereditary conditions and even some alternative therapies are covered. Reviewers also like that there are no upper age limits, and most praise the company's customer service. There's no option for routine care coverage, however, and Petplan uses a per-incident deductible that can force some customers to pay more out of pocket. Some also complain about slow claims.Pros
Many conditions covered. Petplan covers accidents and illnesses for dogs and cats, with a 24-hour waiting period for accident coverage and a 14-day waiting period for illness coverage. Pets must be at least 6 weeks old for coverage, but there's no upper age limit. Basic plans cover veterinary exam fees, diagnostic tests and imaging, surgery, prescriptions, cancer treatments, non-routine dental care, rehabilitation, alternative therapies, referrals and specialist treatments, and behavioral therapies. Hereditary, congenital and chronic conditions are covered, including hip dysplasia, but there's a six-month waiting period for knee conditions. Pre-existing conditions and routine care are excluded, but some curable pre-existing conditions may be eligible for coverage after a waiting period. Coverage for boarding, lost pet recovery, pet theft, straying, death and vacation cancellations are included in step up plans.
Deductible is paid per incident, not annually. Experts say there may be cheaper alternatives than Petplan, but prices depend on several options. Customers receive either a $10,000, $14,000 or $22,000 annual maximum under bronze, silver and gold plan levels. Petplan also offers $50, $100 or $200 deductibles and 80, 90 or 100 percent reimbursement levels. The deductible must be paid for each separate condition and is reset after a year. Discounts are available for those who enroll online and insure multiple pets, and the company offers a refer-a-friend bonus after 30 days. Premiums are subject to increases based on a pet's breed, age and location.
Some complaints about slow claims. Petplan accepts claims via email, fax or mail, and customers can track their claim status online. While most policyholders say they have fast, low-hassle claims and speedy reimbursements, others report a slow process with redundant paperwork requests. Other reviewers say legitimate claims are denied because of pre-existing condition rules. Most are satisfied with customer service, however, and experts praise Petplan for being an established company that's very clear on what's covered and what's excluded when pet owners make claims.
Pet Insurance Comparison, Kimberly Kurimski, Feb. 3, 2016
Petplan takes second place in this pet insurance roundup. Pluses include great service and comprehensive coverage, including hereditary and congenital conditions with no age limit. The company also allows unlimited claims, but plans may cost a bit more than at some other carriers.
A Vet's Review of PetPlan Pet Insurance, Frances Wilkerson, Not dated
Frances Wilkerson praises Petplan as a "strong underwriter" that provides out-of-state coverage and thorough coverage for chronic diseases, hereditary and congenital conditions, cancer and breed-specific conditions. Non-routine dental care is limited, however, and co-pays apply in several common scenarios.
Petplan, Contributors to PetInsuranceReview.com, As of May 2016
Petplan earns a 9.2 out of 10 overall rating based on feedback from nearly 3,000 customers. Many praise customer service, saying they have fast, low-hassle claims and speedy reimbursements. Others complain that the company won't cover legitimate expenses that they said were pre-existing conditions, and some report sudden rate hikes.
Petplan Pet Insurance, Contributors to PetInsuranceRatings.com, Not dated
Petplan is the second highest rated carrier here. It scores of 4.5 out of 5 for customer service, 4.2 for price and 4.7 for coverage. Site editors say it stands out for its stability and simple but customizable plans.

Lifting ban on Canadian beef is 'strong signal' for TPP bid
The China Post news staff Tuesday, January 21, 2014, 12:09 am TWN
Taiwan is finally ready to lift its ban on Canadian bone-in beef from cattle under 30-months old. The announcement was made Friday after the country's food safety agency gave Canadian beef the green light in terms of meat safety and fell into line with other countries in Asia. We are also confident that the government's decision to relax the ban won't compromise the level of safety for Taiwanese consumers. As Canada is also a member of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), the government's move will also be telling the world that "We (Taiwan) are serious (about entering the TPP)," and "We want to secure a place in the partnership's second round of negotiations," which will be very well accepted by the business community as a whole.
After all, local residents deserve the best beef options at an affordable price. Canadian beef has long garnered acclaim among gourmets for being evenly marbled, delicately textured and simply delicious. According to the Canada Beef Export Federation (CBEF), Canadian cattle are grain-fed and raised in a wholesome environment with high-latitude climate. Each animal is also earmarked and tracked with the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags from breeding, birth and feeding all the way to slaughter, packaging and export. The entire process is monitored under Canadian law, and is worthy of the consumers' trust.
The government agencies on a delegation to Canada last year that inspected the slaughterhouses and evaluated Canada's request to allow imports of the country's bone-in beef have all come to the same conclusion: Canadian beef is sound and safe. The Canadian food safety regime is among the world's best and guarantees that Canadian agricultural products are a healthy and safe choice for the Taiwanese consumer.
Canada had been trying to prove that its beef is safe to consume after its first case of mad cow disease surfaced in 2003, when the ban was first established. Taiwan reopened its market to imports of boneless beef in 2007. This week's announcement further reflects the strong economic ties between Taipei and Ottawa, and demonstrates clearly Taiwan's desire to further liberalize its economy and further integrate into the broader regional and global economy. Nearby countries like Japan and South Korea have been importing Canadian beef long before Taiwan's recent nod of agreement. After Taiwan again allowed the import of U.S. beef (excluding intestines) last year, it was expected that Taipei would soon give the same treatment to Ottawa.
Speaking at a press event on Friday, Minister of Economic Affairs Chang Chia-juch (張家祝) was right when he pointed out that Canada is also a member of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), stressing that the government's decision is poised to send the business community a strong signal regarding Taiwan's plan to join the TPP in the near future. The time is ripe for such discussions. On the one hand, the Canadian government has already suggested holding bilateral discussions on double taxation issues and insurance agreements once Taiwan legalized the import of Canadian beef, while Taiwan was also granted the visa waiver and working holiday programs last year.
The other good news is that a resumption of unrestricted beef exports from Canada to Taiwan could mean lower prices for beef in supermarkets here. That is the ultimate good news for customers who have seen a continuous increase of domestic prices in recent years and an increase in food scandals of all sorts.

cam question
I am trying to get a little more go out of my stock pontiac 455 with low compression 4x heads about 8:1, 4 bbl Q-Jet, th400, 3:73 rear, in a 4100lbs truck. So I thought I would try a new cam. I got a recomendation from lazercamsand they suggested a cam @ .050: 243 243, lift 511 511, lash .026 .028, LS 106, with 102 intake center line. obvosily they reccomended all the related parts. I dont have alot of experience with cams and I was concerned that the lobe separation would give me a narrow power band? What other cams would work good? will this work with a stock converter? This is mainly for street use but I would like some tire smokin fun. Thank in advance for any input..
i would drop in a set of edelbrock perfomer rpm 87cc heads there about $1,700 dollars but u need to get that compression ratio up or try installing speed pro pistons will raise compression ratio to 11.7 and will run u about $270 bucks will add a good amout of hp if u want a cam go with comp cams magnum cam in summit $116 bucks
Brick, with todays gas stay with the low compression but change to a set of 6X heads from a 350 or 400 pontiac due to smaller chamber sizes and have a good 3-angle valve job done. Also if you can afford it have some port work done and have the heads flowed. Using the 350 heads with net a compression ratio of around 9.5:1 and the 400 heads will net you aboout 9:1. If this truck is street driven alot and requires alot of low and mid range I would recommend using an 068 Ram Air III cam. The Lazer has way to much duration for a low compression engine such as yours. Using this cam will cause you nothing but grief, you will have no low end torque and the Lazer will require a compression ratio of no less than 11:1 and a stall converter of around a 3200-3500. This combination would make the truck less streeetable and a bear in traffic. Also it would require using 115 octane racing fuel mixed with 93 octane pump gas. Another cam you could use is the Comp high Energy with .454 lift and 268 degrees advertised duration. This will work in a low compression engine such as yours and you use your stock convertor. This cam also provides loads low
and mid range torque and horsepower. I hope this helps. I have set up various cams in several Pontiac engines and build, drive and race Pontiacs exclusively and have for nearly 17 years. I can say from experience that high compression Pontiacs are not pump gas friendly without octane booster or adding racing fuel to give the engine what it needs and Pontiacs respond well to dual pattern cams.
Grusome Goat, thanks for the informative reply. I have been looking into a different set of heads such as the 6x. I have been doing alot of reacerch and 9.5:1 seems to be the majic number pontiac guys are looking for. I will look into the cams you suggested. Thanks again.

Recovery time versus tumescent liposuction was extremely shorter by weeks! I was treated by a board certified plastic surgeon in Germany and the results were satisfactory
I had vaser lipo on 31 Jan 09 of the upper/lower absdominal area and flanks. I had extreme puffiness around my belly button area. My belly button is extremely tight and depressed, not normal looking at all.
I had a revisional procedure done on 29 Apr 09 and that area still looks the same. Is this normal?

Walking into the office, I noticed a new sign listing the prohibited items... the new line said.
"No cutting instruments with a blade longer than three (3) inches."
Normally I carry a Kershaw Blur... and a small Case... and a Gerber Multi-tool.
So, I head to the Chief Security Officer to ask why...
I pull out my 'cutting instruments' and ask him, where did this new policy come from, and just what was his thought process.
Well, it was directed by management, not his call, blah blah balh... the Gerber is fine, the Case bi-folder is fine... the Kershaw has got to go back out to the car.
So, I have a new Kershaw Scallion, and I have to say I'm very impressed with it. Picked it up at a local shop for $37 that afternoon. I have no idea if I got a good deal, or riped off. It's a Kershaw, so I trust the brand... anyway, just needed to vent.

The cutting instruments with a blade longer than three (3) inches... is just the only new part. Not that it's a big deal, security is pretty tight.
I keep a 4" Cold Steel in my right boot and a Kel-Tec PK32 in my left boot most of the time now that I have to conceal at the office. They think I stopped carrying completely and when it comes up in conversation I just say it is a stupid choice by management that could cause a really big law suit if the SHTF and one or more of the office employees were hurt or killed. I hate to be that way but cannot afford to be unarmed in my line of work regardless of what management thinks. And, what they don't know could save their lives one day.

We can't even have those little key chain Swiss Army knives that have a small blade, scissors, screwdriver, and toothpick. I couldn't believe how stupid that is. If you stabbed someone with it the blade would fold over and cut your own finger. The knife is best used as a fingernail cleaner.

In the case of hand-forged blade our blacksmith takes the already rolled spring steel and forges it with hand on the anvil or under the monkey (drop hammer). By forging becomes the steel more compacted (denser). Industrially rolled spring steel blades are made by cutting steel plate into strips under drop shears. Then they are ground or milled/grooved and without further forging directly put into the annealing furnace and hardened in oil bath. The qualities of both kinds of blades do not differ from each other much since the industrial rolling is already very good. On forged blades usually have forge traces, which give them an authentic and unique look.

"Wicked's" massive dragon time-clock, which tour insiders call "Ozwald," flew above the Capitol Theatre stage on Tuesday, as some 60 local stagehands joined tour roadies to load in sets and scenery for the touring musical. The $14 million show begins its third run in Salt Lake City on Wednesday, July 9.
Along with wardrobe, makeup and wig artists, it takes about 100 people and 30 hours to set the show, says Steve Quinn, who joined the national tour 9 ½ years ago, shortly after its launch. "What's nice about it is the set is going to look enormous" in the intimate space of the Capitol Theatre, Quinn says. "I think the show plays terrifically here."

Developing a protocol for depression screening and referral at adult day centers
Five organizations have agreed to work together to develop protocols for depression screening, referral and ongoing depression monitoring of elder clients who attend four Adult Day Centers in Minnesota. The protocols, individualized per site as needed, would be used at the four sites. An instruction manual will be developed and distributed to the other Adult Day Center sites in Minnesota so that the additional sites could also implement the protocol. This project will be considered successful if it results in a well constructed publication for consideration for implementation in other organizations. The five organizations in Minnesota include: Ebenezer Adult Day Health Services (Burnsville); Martin Luther Manor Adult Day Health Services (Bloomington); Sojourn Adult Day Health Services (Spring Park); Wilder Adult Day Health Services (Saint Paul).

(CNSNews.com) - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad plans to attend this month's U.N. General Assembly session in New York City, and has again challenged President Bush to a public debate to compare the merits of democracy and Islam.
The news prompted a Likud lawmaker in Israel to urge his country's government to demand that Ahmadinejad to be barred from attending the session.
The Jerusalem Post quoted Dan Naveh as saying it was impossible for a man who had called for Israel's destruction to take part in a U.N. meeting.
Although Ahmadinejad attended last year's General Assembly session -- following some debate over a visa because of allegations he was linked to the 1979 U.S. Embassy hostage drama -- over the past 12 months he has become considerably more controversial.
He has on several occasions made comments interpreted as calling for an end to Israel, and has also questioned the authenticity of the Holocaust.
Iran is, furthermore, currently facing the prospect of U.N. sanctions after ignoring an Aug. 31 Security Council deadline to stop enriching uranium. The U.S. and its allies suspect Tehran is using its ostensibly civilian program as a cover to develop nuclear weapons technology.
The Irna news agency reported that Ahmadinejad told cabinet ministers Wednesday his attendance at the U.N session would provide a good opportunity for a debate with Bush.
The entire world, and especially Americans, would be able to watch the encounter "directly and without any censorship," he said.
Media coverage of the event would enable the nations of the world "to hear the viewpoints [of the two sides] and to choose the best."
Ahmadinejad said Iran was ready to present models for better governance, the establishment of global justice, and the elimination of enmity.
"It is possible to prove in a debate which of the two political systems is a better choice for the world nations -- the one that is established based on the norms of liberalism and has caused so much dilemmas and plight for the mankind, or the one that is established based on monotheism and justice."
Ahmadinejad has increasingly focused on confronting Bush personally, and on seeking to contrast Western-style democracy with Islam.
Last May he sent an 18-page letter to Bush, challenging him to embrace the tenets of Islam.
The letter, which some commentators suggested was a historically significant invitation to dialogue, was dismissed as a distraction by the White House, as was an Ahmadinejad invitation to Bush last month to hold a televised debate.
U.N. spokesman Stephane Dujarric Wednesday said he had "no particular comment" about the latest Iranian invitation to a debate at the U.N.
The General Assembly's 61st session opens next Tuesday. The Iranian leader plans to attend the gathering after taking part in a summit of the 116-nation Non-Aligned Movement, hosted this year by Cuba and running from Sept. 11-16.
Since his unexpected election in June 2005, Ahmadinejad has stoked controversy with repeated verbal attacks against Israel.
Last October, addressing a "World without Zionism" conference, he called the Jewish state a "stain of disgrace" that would soon be "purged from the center of the Islamic world," and approvingly cited the late Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomenei as saying the regime occupying Jerusalem "must be eliminated from the pages of history."
Last month, at a meeting with Islamic heads of state in Malaysia, he was quoted by Iranian media as saying in relation to the war between Israel and Hizballah in Lebanon that "the real cure for the conflict is elimination of the Zionist regime."
Confirmation of Ahmadinejad's intended visit is likely to spark calls in the U.S. for the State Department to deny him a visa.
Under the 1947 "headquarters agreement" establishing the permanent seat of the U.N. in New York City, delegates from foreign countries are to have unimpeded access to the demarcated "headquarters district."
Asked about the visa issue, Dujarric said every country that hosts a U.N. headquarters (others are Geneva, Vienna and Nairobi) "has certain responsibilities in terms of allowing officials to attend meetings here."
"They also have their own responsibility vis-a-vis their own laws," he added. "But we would expect heads of state and others who come here to be granted visas."
In 1988 the Reagan administration refused to issue a visa to PLO chairman Yasser Arafat to attend a General Assembly session because of his "associations with terrorism."
The Assembly overwhelmingly condemned the move and voted to hold a special session in Geneva, which Arafat addressed.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. - The 13th-ranked University of Tennessee women's tennis team will host a pair of crucial Southeastern Conference matches this weekend as No. 23 Kentucky (12-6, 3-5) and No. 17 Vanderbilt (9-5, 5-2) prepare to make the trip to Rocky Top. The Lady Volunteers sport a 13-4 overall record this season and currently sit in sole possession of second place in the SEC with a 6-2 mark in league play. They will host the Wildcats on Friday, April 10, before the Commodores arrive in Knoxville for a match two days later. First serve for both contests is set for 1 p.m. at the Goodfriend Tennis Center and live scoring will be available at UTLadyVols.com.
The Big Orange swept a pair of road matches in the Yellowhammer State this past weekend, defeating both No. 25 Alabama and 29th-rated Auburn by identical 5-2 scores. Sophomore Jennifer Meredith led the way for the Lady Vols, improving her singles winning streak to 12 matches with two straight-set triumphs, including the match-clinching win against Auburn on Sunday, her third of the season. The Marietta, Ga., native also joined forces with fellow sophomore Maria Sorbello to clinch the doubles point against both Alabama and Auburn.
In UT's victory over the Crimson Tide, Meredith became the first person in SEC action this year to defeat Meritt Emery, snapping her six-match league winning streak with a 6-2, 6-4, victory, after teaming up with Sorbello to take out Emery and Shelley Godwin by an 8-1 score to clinch the doubles point for the Big Orange. Against the Tigers, Meredith cruised past Myrthe Molenveld, 6-2, 6-3, to pick up her third match-clinching win of the season. She and Sorbello had also tallied the doubles point for the Lady Vols, downing Fani Chifchieva and Jil Hastenrath, 8-6.
Following its matches this weekend, the Orange and White will have a six-day layoff to prepare to close out the regular season against No. 2-ranked Georgia at Noon on Saturday, April 18. From there, Tennessee will travel to Fayetteville, Ark., where it will open the postseason portion of its schedule at the SEC Tournament, April 23-26.

door not stright
My exterior door has a gap on the bottom and is tight on top. This is when the door is closed, and it is seen on the hinge side. What is an easy fix for this! Because my lock doesn't catch as mush as it should. Thanks!
Sounds like a settling issue. Check in the basement for damage to the sill plate or floor joists in that area. Doors are notorious areas for termite invasions and water infiltration. Also check the hinges. If you have a decent amount of space on the strike side of the door at the top, you can put a shim on the top hinge to drop it down a bit. The middle hinge will also need a minor adjustment. You might also remove the years of built up paint on the door and you might get the clearance you need to close the door.
If there are no signs of damage and you can't deal with the above solutions, shave the top of the door and put some weatherstripping on the bottom
Could be a bunch of things. Two that come to my mind are either the door was installed wrong or the hinges are cheap and have bent slightly under the weight of the door. Do you live in an area where the door would remain open during the day?
This happens all the time with solid core interior doors. Just the other day my dad had me fix his office door which had a problem like yours. Its a rather easy fix.
Since im not sure if it against the TOS I wont post a link. I will PM it to you ok.
I've got a similar problem, except my gap is at the top (door knob side). It's not tight anywhere really, just not square in the frame and leaks like an open window. There is about a 1/4" difference between the sides on the top. The frame is level, the door is just slightly off.
I was wondering if there was a shim that goes behind the hinge on the frame? If I put it behind the bottom hinge to push it out a bit.
You could use compressed cardboard or layers of anything that won't split when you replace the screws.
I mainly use old utility knife blades as shims behind door hinges, but you can use anything from pieces of popsickle stick to cereal box strips, etc.
Anything to shim it out that fits behind a hinge and can't be seen.
Then use new weatherstripping and a new sweep on the bottom to seal around exterior doors.
Good luck!

#1: Samy Instant Recurl?
I just bought Samy Insant Recurl, has anything got any reviews on it? I looked it up but didn't really find much (however people did seem to like the Samy Get Curls Potion one). The only thing is this contains SD Alcohol, would that be too drying for CG?

Purchasing a used condenser...
I had my furnace replaced last fall. I just installed a new Carrier 3-1/2 ton cased coil. All I need now is the lineset and 3 ton condenser to finish the job.
I saw a used Carrier Infinity 3 ton condenser on EBay for $699. It's 5-1/2 years old. The owner says:
QUESTION: Would you take the chance on a used condenser or sweat it out for the summer?
BTW: the seller has a 100% positive feedback on 264 ratings.
I'd pass, and what do you do when it fails, no warrenty, your out of luck.
It's almost 1/2 as old as a unit is expected to last.
Not at that price. Shipping and installation will be expensive and even though the seller says the parts warranty has another 4.5 years that's at the original installed location.
Ditto on the pass. If it were a few hundred, and you could go pick it up then that's different. As it stands, you'll have over $1,000 in it with purchase and shipping - and then you've got to find someone to install a used condenser (which would cost several hundred more dollars in my area). So you'd be very close to $2,000 ... for a used condenser with no warranty.
Don't buy someone else's used equipment it's not worth it . Sweat it out or try to buy a new one on payments.
if you have 600.00 to spend now...buy a window unit till you get enough to buy central ..then sell window unit to recoup some cost:thumbsup:
I guess I picked a bad year to piecemeal a new HVAC system.
Thanks all for the feedback.
12,000 and it's barly keeping up, somethings wrong or that's one big room.
I had a 20,000 btu that heated and cooled an 800 sq. ft. house.
It's a bedroom-bathroom combo with vaulted ceilings and 3 skylights. All total it's about 500 sq/ft. If we close off the bathroom, the unit works pretty well but the bathroom turns into an oven. It has a 44x44 skylight in it and I think that adds a lot to the heat when the sun is beating down on it.
I have heard the portable units don't cool as well as window units. There's one large hose that acts as intake and output both and there's no condensate drain. Somehow the unit evaporates the condensate.
Turn the blower on for your furnace to help move the air from window ac :)
When I scrap the old condenser maybe I'll find gold instead of copper then I can buy a new house. :)

One would do.
OK, maybe two......No one would be fine.

Has anyone tried homeopathic growth hormone oral spray? It's legal for over the counter sales and is very gentle on the system.

Robert Pattinson Jets to Vancouver for "Breaking Dawn" Re-Shoots
After a quick visit to the nation's capital for the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner festivities, Robert Pattinson has packed his bags and ventured to a new locale.
The Edward Cullen hunk was spotted looking cool and casual as he passed through the Vancouver International Airport terminal on Sunday afternoon (April 29).
As for the reason behind the Canadian visit, Robert is reportedly in town to tend to a few re-shoots for the upcoming "Twilight Saga" finale "Breaking Dawn - Part 2".
Never having an easy go of things during his travels, this flight sounded as if it was no different, as one Twitter fan posted a message about Pattinson's landing, writing, "Just watched the bodyguard for #BreakingDawn star Robert Pattinson assault 2 people. Nice PR job @Twilight."
Enjoy the pictures of Robert Pattinson arriving in Vancouver (April 29).
