I'd heard about people utilizing alternative healing methods to help their pets — doggy massages, doggy yoga — but doggy acupuncture? It wasn't something I'd ever considered for my dogs.
If you have ever been to an animal shelter, you have probably seen a sad sight: dozens of adult cats desperate for homes, most of which have little chance of getting out.
The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals states that every year, about 5 to 7 million pets enter the animal shelter system, of which more than half are cats. Unfortunately, approximately 70% of those cats are euthanized simply because no one wants them, and most shelters don't have the funds to board them for more than a few weeks.
Should cats be given baths? If so, how often? And are there special shampoos?
It's finally summer, but can all of the pretty flowers in bloom spell trouble for you and your kitty? Make sure to check all fresh and garden flowers to make sure that they are not dangerous — or deadly — for your pets.
Human diabetes is viewed by many as a national epidemic, and November has been designated "Pet Diabetes Awareness Month" to bring attention to the seriousness of the disease. Many pet owners don't realize that dogs and cats can get diabetes too, and that its incidence is on the rise. Intervet/Schering-Plough Animal Health is sponsoring Pet Diabetes Awareness Month in November to create more awareness of this disease affecting pets.
The current economic downturn has many pet owners looking for ways to cut back on expenses, but one way that does not make sense is flea prevention. Preventing fleas has always been easier — and much more economical in the long run — than trying to get rid of them after they've infested your pet and your household. Today's effective topical and oral monthly flea-prevention products wind up costing only pennies a day, really — no more than a candy bar or the price of a stamp — when you spread the cost out over the year.
As unlikely as it might seem, cats around the country are having a blast competing in agility competitions or doing obstacle courses in their own homes. It's loads of fun for you and your cat — and it's great for your cat's physical and mental health.
Tinsel, lights, food! The holidays offer many temptations for all of us, including our pets. Think about how you're attracted to all of the glitz and fun of the holidays, and multiply that by 10 for your pets. Amid the holiday cheer, we know that hazards are lurking everywhere, but they don't.
How do I introduce a two-month-old male kitten to my five-year-old female cat?
We have all seen those flyers around our neighborhoods before. Big bold letters cry "LOST PET" followed by a photo and details about Fluffy, and a phone number to call if the animal is found.
According to the American Humane Association, only about 17% of lost dogs and 2% of cats ever find their way back from shelters to their original owners. Close to 9.6 million pets are euthanized every year because their owners can't be found. But, there are ways to beat these odds.
True or false?
Diabetes affects more cats than dogs.Drinking a lot of water is a sign of diabetes.Diabetes cannot be treated or cured.A blood test can detect diabetes.
Find the answers.
Steve Shell with Home Again LLC, explains how a microchip works and why it is important.
We've all seen medical dramas in which a patient in surgery is hooked up to lots of tubes, wires, and beeping machines. Seems a bit over the top for your pet, right?
My cat cut open one of her foot pads and it's healing very slowly. What should I do?
When it comes to your pet's food, you spend a lot of time and energy making sure that your pet has a healthy diet. You consider all of the brands, compare labels, debate moist-versus-dry, and consult your veterinarian.
But pets do not live by food alone. An ever-present bowl of clean water may be the most important part of your pet's diet.
A bouncy, clear-eyed puppy would have been the easy choice for Darryl and Katie Jockers of Northglenn, Colo.
Instead, the couple is drawn to the misfits and the unwanted. Their house is already home to a yellow Labrador mix found in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, a black Lab retired from his job as a guide dog, a golden tabby cat and a 10-year-old Siamese.
Palliative care focuses on managing the pain, lack of appetite, fatigue, nausea or other symptoms your pet may be experiencing from a chronic disease or its treatment. Hospice care, too, looks first to the comfort of the pet—those with a terminal diagnosis and for whom a cure is no longer possible.
Pain management, in particular, is a science that is rapidly evolving. Sometimes just a few small changes in medication can return a pet to being more like its old self. It is still an animal with a fatal disease—but that extra time can be very meaningful.
Is your cat grooming half of her hair off, or is your dog licking his paws raw? It may well be that your pet is experiencing allergies, one of the most common health problems for pets. Just like people, animals have allergic reactions because their immune system — the system that protects the body from foreign and potentially infectious substances — overreacts to some material. Almost anything — pollen, dust, an ingredient in pet food, a household chemical, an insect bite — can set off an alarm in the immune system, causing it to pump out large amounts of white blood cells, hormones and other material called histamines into the bloodstream.
When to visit the animal emergency clinic and how to get the most from your visit.
Beware: Though a flea is puny, its effects on pets and people can be mighty. Learn more about their bad habits and health consequences--and why you should talk to your veterinarian about keeping your pet flea-free all year long.
Did you know dogs and cats can develop diabetes? When a pet is diabetic, it means it lacks the hormone insulin or is unable to use the insulin it has. Without insulin, the pet's body can't transport glucose (blood sugar) to cells where it is needed. When this happens, the cells begin to look for new sources of energy, and problems develop. Learn more about the disease and what types of pets are more likely to develop diabetes.

Pets need professional dental exams and cleanings in order to avoid painful tooth decay and other, related health problems such as heart, lung, and kidney disease. Brushing your pet's teeth is essential, but it isn't enough. Although a basic oral examination can be done on patients that are awake, an anesthetic is required in order to provide a thorough dental cleaning.
Von Willebrand disease is the most common inherited bleeding disorder in dogs. The disease rarely occurs in cats.
Dogs with this disease cannot clot blood normally, which results in bleeding, especially after surgery or trauma. While this disease has occurred in more than 50 different dog breeds, the breeds most commonly affected include Doberman pinschers, German shepherds, golden retrievers, poodles, Shetland sheepdogs, Pembroke Welsh Corgis and the German Shorthaired Pointer.
I want to teach my cat to walk on a leash. He is 14 months old and slightly obese. I have a leash and harness for him. Do you have any tips for me?
Patient care is the core of what veterinary practices do everyday. Meeting the needs of patients is almost as varied and diverse as the number of species in the world. The AAHA patient care standards cover everything from physical examinations and how fluids are maintained to what kind of bedding and environments patients are housed in. Patient care is the ultimate reason a practice exists and a determining factor in how clients choose a practice.
Fleas are mean, lean, biting machines. A close-up look at these tiny parasites shows just how well built they are for this job and why they are so hard to banish from your pet and your home.
Hitting defenseless animals, keeping them chained without exercise or leaving them exposed in severe weather all count as abuse. Mistreating animals can (and often does) escalate into domestic assault. Dial 911 if you suspect abuse. Police will respond. You can choose to remain anonymous, or by identifying yourself, you can help in future prosecution.
Animals can't tell us where it hurts or how much or in what way, and early signs of discomfort are often subtle and difficult for pet owners to detect. That is why veterinary professionals at AAHA-accredited animal hospitals take an "every patient, every day" approach to pain assessment.
Porcupines, spiders and snakes — oh my!
There's nothing better than taking off with your dog during these dog days of summer. It's a beautiful day, so you head out with your best bud Buster for a hike. Water — check. First-aid kit — check. Water bowl for Buster — check. Snacks for you both — check. AAHA-accredited hospital in your contacts list — huh?
Will declawing my cat change his personality?
Thinking about giving your pet an aspirin to ease its pain? Think again! Human painkillers including ibuprofen, aspirin and acetaminophen can be dangerous and even deadly to animals. Though acetaminophen can ease a human tension headache, one tablet of 500 mg extra strength acetaminophen can kill a 7-pound cat. Human medications are not designed for the animal body, and can have deadly effects when given to pets. Veterinarians can help prescribe the right dose and type of medication for your pet when it is in pain. Visit HealthyPet.com to find an accredited veterinarian near you.

Everything you need for coloring, drawing, painting and dough play fits neatly in the durable storage case for on-the-go creativity.From its earliest beginnings, Crayola has been about color. They came into being when cousins Edwin Binney and C. Harold Smith took over Edwin's father's pigment business in 1885. More than 120 years later, color - along with creativity, learning and most of all, fun - is the hallmark of the Crayola company who stands out as the premiere name in crayons, markers and paint for kids.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this product. Love the variety it has, the nice storage bag and the fact that my 4 year old daughter loves it. We have used this product to color pictures, to draw pictures and the crayons to work on workbooks. Great product! I also love how this product fits right along with all of the other crayola products that we have at our house. I also like the way crayola makes things geared to the little ones with their my first products.

I have an iPhone 4 with some slight water damage. The only issue is that when I am listening on headphones, occasionally it thinks that it is docked (which silences the headphones), then half a second to 10 seconds later, it thinks it has been removed from the dock that it was never connected to and thus pauses the audio. Since all this happens in the OS while it monitors the status of the headphone jack and the media dock, it would be very easy to write a program to tell it to stop polling the media dock, and thus the faulty dock detection switch would be ignored. So, has someone already written an iPhone app that is on Cydia that would let me turn off the dock detector switch?
Unfortunately, this would require some very specific code that goes beyond anything I've seen on Cydia. That's not to say that a solution does not (or will not by the time I finish this post) exist. However, through my research and experience, this is handled by code much deeper in iOS than most Cydia apps care to touch. I wish I could offer a solution, but unfortunately, I think the only "real" solution is repair or replacement. Sorry. :( Good luck and happy listening! | |||
Perhaps more of a workaround than an answer, and it may only solve half your problem (plus a bit late), but anyway: my suggestion is to try a different music player. The standard Apple iPod app (and most other audio players) not only redirects audio when docked, but stop playing when undocked, as you noted in your description. However, there are some audio player apps that don't stop playing when undocked. Just one example is the free Cydia app MyFile (just tried this with my iPod and dock). So you'll still have the "half a second to 10 seconds" silence, but won't have to press play afterwards. | ||||
I'd use eBay to swap the phone. Upgrade to a 4S People will buy iPhones that are in much worse condition , and in one day auctions. | |||

Comments about Chooze Dance Mary Jane Shoes - Girls':
We bought these for our 7 year old daughter in mid August 2013. It is September 30th, and they are falling apart. She loves them - they are cute and comfy and easy to put on in the morning. I was really dissapointed that a shoe designed for a little girl didn't last longer than about 7 weeks. My daughter isn't doing anything exotic - going to school and walks around the neighborhood - but the straps are fraying and tonight the top of the shoe has seperated from the sole. Very disspointed, and we will not purchase this brand again.
Best Uses
Comments about Chooze Dance Mary Jane Shoes - Girls':
My 6 year old daughter loooooves her Chooze shoes. They are the perfect mix of cute (she wears nothing but dresses) and athletic (she rides her bike to school and wears them to run, run, run in). She has worn them heavily (like 3-4 times per week) since August, and they have worn out. The straps were actually fine, but eventually the sides got holes in the fabric. I found them easy to wash, and while they didn't come out looking new, I felt they were easy to keep clean.
My daughter is really hard on shoes, and for the price I wish they'd held up longer. I will look for a leather shoe this time around, but we may go with Chooze again because my daughter has a hard time finding shoes she feels are comfortable (and that I feel good in her running around in all day).
Best Uses
Comments about Chooze Dance Mary Jane Shoes - Girls':
I bought my daughter two pairs of these. The first were purple and hid dirt better. These were the second. After a few wears, they looked old. The strap frayed a bit. It was too late to take them back. Chooze needs to find a way to make these more stain-resistant. My daughter barely wore them, yet they are too dirty (even after washing them) to pass them on to another little girl. What a waste! I love the concept, but hate the quality. Not choozing Chooze again.

These are adorable shoes. My daughter fell in love with them the minute I showed them to her. But, she's had them for about a week, and the straps are already starting to fray. Frustrating, given the cost. They are going back.

Also, that's cool. Cooking some steaks tonight and I'm surprised to hear they should go alright with white chocolate and smoked salmon. I mean, hazelnut? Sure. Popcorn? Heh. Milk chocolate? Really?
Seemingly white and milk chocolate go well with everything ...

Steak and white chocolate should go under a new thread called "two disgusting ingredients." Add smoked salmon to the same plate and that may qualify for the already existing "three disgusting ingredients."
I've never been a big fan of surf 'n' turf meals, but a mouthful of smoked salmon and rare steak seems particularly unappetizing.

Still, I do have Niki Segnit's Flavour Thesaurus coming in the mail. I'll be curious to see if it has, er, better suggestions or if it, too, reckons white and milk chocolate go with everything. I'm interested in that, anyway. I mean, I figure it'd be the fat component, right?
Too, that second food pairing gizmo, it's basically saying spinach and milk chocolate are equally good friends with grilled beef.

the creation of overtones is just one creative linkage technique among many. if all aromas can be classified in terms of gustation (because of a synaesthesia-like sensory linkage), you can also link aromas from different divisions across olfaction and gustation. (ie. sweet aroma, bitter aroma, but you can also have something like many dry wines... sweet aroma, acid gustation)
two ordinary tones that have the potential to form an overtone can be combined to create the extra-ordinary. extra-ordinary sensoriality is very important to beauty.
cocktails are a good way to illustrate the point. i think its best to prove an avante-garde pairing in a drink (simplified texture) before you try is with textured food.
orange ordinary
2 oz. gin
1 oz. orange liqueur (300g/l sugar)
1 oz. lemon juice
apricot ordinary
2 oz. gin
1 oz. apricot liqueur (300g/l sugar)
1 oz. lemon juice
orange-apricot extra-ordinary
2 oz. gin
.5 oz. orange liqueur
.5 oz. apricot liqueur
1 oz. lemon juice
the orange and apricot create an overtone and because it exists between two known spaces we often find it more compelling. this is very commonly done with aromas that increase the perception of sweetness.
corpse reviver no. 2
1 oz. gin
1 oz. triple-sec orange liqueur
1 oz. lillet
1 oz. lemon juice
spoonful of absinthe
lillet is orange peel aromatized so the triple-sec linkage is almost like alliteration. the result is a spectacular overtone (the aroma of the wine base is also a significant contributor to the overtone). the anise in the absinthe is another aroma that increases the perception of sweetness, but it is perceived as a distinct interval. we like the sensation of these intervals because we are attracted to the space it takes up within the mind's eye when we perceive the drink.
it is harder to create overtones from aromas that decrease the perception of sweetness (it is also hard to classify them) because you usually end up with distinct intervals. an interesting example of an overtone might be the linking of juniper and angelica which is common to gin. the tonality of gins drying aromas likely becomes more extra-ordinary when angelica tonally modifies juniper.
besides beautiful overtones we also enjoy the tension between sweet aromas and the anti-sweet, but not everything "works" (is harmonious).
to use a cross sensory analogy, the aroma of smoke (anti-sweet) might be inharmonious with very "light" sweet aromas like muscat, but "darker" aromas like blackberry with the smoke might be harmonious.
2 oz. blanco tequila
1 oz. orange liqueur
1 oz. lime juice
tequila is laden with aromas from a particular part of the umami spectrum which as we all know is delicious with the grapefruit-like overtone produced by the sweet aromas of the orange liqueur and fresh lime.
all these examples are simplified. not all of the units we pair are composed of one single division like only sweet or only umami. most everything is a set of aromas. to go back to the pairing website, it seems like their linkages work not because of the things they have in common, but because of the extra things in the set.
besides the overtones some linkages might create, a lot of the pleasure might come from the tension of every other aroma that rides along.
satan's whiskers.
.75 oz. gin
.75 oz. sweet vermouth
.75 oz. dry vermouth
.75 oz. orange liqueur
.75 oz. sour orange juice
2 dashes orange bitters.
every component here has some degree of orange aromatizing which might make them seem to go together, but what really makes the drink (aromatically anyhow) is the tension between the orange overtone and everything else (juniper in the gin, various drying botanicals in the vermouths, and cardamom perhaps in the bitters).
.5 oz. kirshwasser
.5 oz. mezcal
.5 oz. sweet vermouth
.5 oz. dry sherry
.5 oz. yellow chartreuse
.5 oz. sloe gin
the aromas of this drink are seemingly unrelated and create a vast collage of the different divisions, all fairly harmonious or an easy to acquire acquired taste.
i do not think using a microscope to see various common molecules in ingredients is going to tell us what "goes together" (is harmonious). we probably need to deconstruct the multi-sensory perception of flavor, categorize aromas (probably with raw human empathy), and develop a theory of acquired tastes and harmony.
a delicious journey.

The Eternal Conflagration
There haven't been many higher-profile black/war metal bands giving up the goods since Angelcorpse disbanded, but veteran Australian chaos mongers Abominator are getting ready to reacquaint themselves with those of us who can still appreciate the less refined, blatantly blasphemous ends of the metal spectrum with their newest halo killer, The Eternal Conflagration. A few of us still exist, I think, and if not there's always a new wave of unsuspecting Shadows Fall kids out there to attempt to corrupt. It surprises me that such a dated form of metal can still sound vibrant in the right hands, and this infernal trio has no problem sounding both spirited, and totally relentless, if not unfocused.
Given a choice, I'd rather just sit here and thrash to this fucker instead of judging it, but I can't do that since it is you who has to shell out for it. Calling a spade a spade, I actually expected something more from Abominator from a critical standpoint. It's doubtful that anyone listens to these guys expecting progression from one release to the next, because there certainly is no expansion of creativity or artistic direction. Nope folks, what we have here is simply venomous, tightly swirling blastbeaten barbarity performed with rather average dexterity and drive, which isn't meant to be an insult. The performances are all passionately rendered and lacking any sort of cheese or phoned-in, computerized assistance, but it's also the safest Abominator album yet in comparison to their peers.
The songwriting itself is dynamically arranged and energetic enough, and although fast and furious, doesn't quite have the overall deep bite of Nuctemeron Descent, or Subversives For Lucifer. There's something about the contorted tremolo whirlwind that feels, strangely enough, slightly rushed, not so much in execution but in assembly. The riffs aren't filler, mind you, because the rhythmic patterns are very diligent and well-constructed, but there is a glaring lack of adhesion within the individual songs themselves. The notes race by without much repetition to drill such malicious ideas home, and lock into your brain. Unlike Immolation, Incantation, or Angelcorpse who have songs centered around strong riff arrangements from the start and build from there, most of the material on The Eternal Conflagration feels stitched together with a point of view in mind, but no concrete path to get where they want to go. With the exception of the recurring gallop of "Desecrator Of Sanctuary", I can't recall a single one of the many standout riffs anywhere on this album that sticks for any length of time.
Soundwise, I don't know what went wrong. The vocals are placed somewhat in the middle, the guitars are all-encompassing, and the bass is buried in the muddy mess of drums. This sub-par overall sound really hurts since the song ideas aren't formulated very well to begin with. The solos suffer in particular from the odd mix, their wild structures are somewhat robbed of their potential luster due to the discrepant production, administering another chip to the armor of this otherwise mighty band.
So when I say The Eternal Conflagration is average as in "pretty good", I want you to know I love this kind of shit, and I love the style of this album so I can be a little forgiving, personally, while spinning it in my boom box or whatever. Still, the production is quite underwhelming, and with greater attention to detail and strong separate song ideas, this could have been an extraordinary album thanks to the truly vicious riffs it contains, but falls slightly short overall. Abominator are a very talented band, and I can't really pick anything out musically that sucks or sounds third rate. But at the same time, if you're not the kind of person who already has a soft spot or preference for brazenly blasphemous war metal, there's nothing here that will convert you. If you're a fan already, you'll love it, really. But I'm not here to play favorites, so there you have it.

How much more power drain does the Magic Mouse cause to a MacBook Pro compared to a wired mouse?
In a few months I'll be purchasing a MacBook Pro. I'll be setting it up as a desktop with an external HP monitor, an Apple Magic Mouse, an Apple wireless keyboard and a mini Displayport to DVI adaptor. But I'll also use it as laptop sometimes. And I'll probably bring it to school occasionally. I really don't like trackpads very much; I tend to prefer a mouse. So,when i bring it to school I'd like to use the Apple Magic Mouse so I don't need to use the trackpad. I would like to know how much more power using the Magic Mouse would draw from the MacBook Pro compared to a wired mouse. I'd also like to know how long the Macbook Pro's battery would last when I'm using the Magic Mouse with it . I'm asking these questions because the Apple Magic Mouse uses Bluetooth and I know that Bluetooth uses a lot of power.

If you've been keeping track of American Horror Story's current events then you should know by now that Season 2 of last years hit show will now takes place in a mental hospital set on the east coast, and that several key characters will be returning - but not as themselves. Newcomers Adam Levine, Lizzie Brochere, Chloe Sevigny and James Cromwell have all jumped on board along with last years returning alumni which consists of Jessica Lange, Lily Rabe, Zachary Quinto and Evan Peters.
Now, in an interview with New York Magazine's The Vulture, showrunner and co-creator Ryan Murphy revealed a pocketful of new details for the second season which has now sent our anticipation level to an all new height. Read on for the details:
It's set in an institution for the criminally insane that Jessica Lange's character runs,"[i/] explains Murphy,[i] "which is a really, really, really fun thing to do because you can write all these people locked up in it. And I guess if the first season was about infidelity, the second season is about sanity. What makes someone sane or insane? Sometimes the people you think are insane are actually the most sane of all. It's fun to write about people who society throws away.
I haven't said this publicly, Murphy continues, but the new season is set in the sixties and Chloë Sevigny, for example, plays a character who was put in an asylum because she was a woman who likes sex, so her husband sends her away. At the time, you were able to put people away for that. Another character is institutionalized for being a lesbian. To me, there's nothing more scary than somebody coming to you and saying they're going to take you away and put you in a mad house and you have no legal rights and there you shall stay till the end of your days. That is a real horror. Everybody has felt people thinking, "You're fucking crazy." Even somebody saying that to you is scary.
As previously reported, a handful of last seasons characters, such as Jessica Lange will make their return but in different roles. When asked if viewers would be able to adjust to seeing the same actors in new roles Murphy replied, I think they will. I think that people will love seeing Evan Peters, who was last season's ultimate badass bad boy and this year is the hero of the show. It's not like the actors are playing similar parts. They're going to look different, they're going to sound different, they're going to have different accents. It's a different time period. The actors are so excited to do that and hopefully their enthusiasm will translate. I mean, I would pay to watch Jessica Lange read the phonebook. And she's so the opposite of Constance this year. Like, if she was the wilting Blanche DuBois character, there's not a shred of that now.
Intrigued, excited, sold?? Lets us know your thoughts in the comment section below.

This show is extensive, and offers a nice range of examples. Whether you are an admirer of "outsider art" already, or this is your first experience, I think you will find a variety of fun and fascinating pieces. Lack of formal art training certainly does not keep creative people from coming up with delightful, and often profound or really funny pieces. The Belger Art Center is a great venue for this show, too, with ample space to walk around and see the art from many angles, even in a First Friday crowd. This is a great show!

The people in this gallery always greet me pleasantly. They have work by many interesting contemporary artists, and always seem very knowledgeable about the pieces they are showcasing. Their web site is informative and in-depth. I highly recommend this gallery!

An imperiled orangutan was rescued from a small patch of the Tripa peat swamp rainforest in Sumatra last month, in an effort to save this large adult male from starvation. But experts fear he could be among the last of his kind in what was once prime habitat for these graceful, shy great apes.
A little more than a year ago, Indonesia enacted a moratorium on deforestation, and got major finanial backing from the US and Norway to make it happen.
The EPA's analysis looked at the loss of rainforest and the draining of peatlands as the big net loss for palm-oil based biodiesel, which keeps the fuel from being classed as renewable under the RFS. However one group - the Rainforest Action Network - claims that EPA hasn't gone far enough. Scientific and environmental groups summarized their comments to EPA's proposed finding and while they agreed with EPA's conclusion, they argue that EPA's analysis actually underestimates the greenhouse gas emissions of palm oil.
Scientific and environmental groups announced that they will submit comments to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in response to EPA's proposed finding that palm oil should not qualify for inclusion in the EPA's Renewable Fuels Standard (RFS) this morning. While the organizations, including the Union of Concerned Scientists, World Wildlife Fund, the Natural Resources Defense Council, and the National Wildlife Federation, agreed with the EPA's conclusion not to include palm oil, they argued that EPA's analysis actually underestimates the greenhouse gas emissions of palm oil
A consortium of environmental groups said that, while they agreed with the findings, the EPA underestimated the emissions levels. They said they believe palm oil has serious environmental consequences.
"The emissions of palm oil based biofuels substantially exceed the emissions from conventional petroleum diesel," Jeremy Martin, a senior scientist at the Union of Concerned Scientists, said in a statement.
Based on its analysis, the EPA ruled that biofuels made with palm oil do not meet the greenhouse gas requirements of the US renewable fuels mandate. The 2007 Renewable Fuel Standard requires that biofuels reduce net greenhouse gas emissions at least 20% compared to conventional gasoline and diesel over their lifecycle. Safeguards to protect natural ecosystems from biofuel crop production were also included.
ALEC, along with palm oil producers in Indonesia and Malaysia, are pushing back hard, claiming EPA's conclusion is based on faulty data.
Wilmar International, the world's largest palm oil processor and trader, has hired a major lobbying firm to overturn the Environmental Protection Agency's ruling that palm oil-based biodiesel will not meet greenhouse gas emissions standards under America's Renewable Fuels Standard, reports The Hill.
It is commonly known among conservation biologists that biodiversity -- or the totality and variability of genes, species and ecosystems of a region -- is integral for optimum health and sustainability of a region. Though it is a term that is arguably clunkier than "sustainability" -- biodiversity is slowly becoming a topic of interest within the sphere of sourcing and design.
Thursday, April 26th - Scientific and environmental groups summarized their comments on the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) proposed finding that palm oil should not qualify for inclusion in the EPA's Renewable Fuels Standard (RFS). While the organizations agreed with the EPA's conclusion not to include palm oil, they argued that EPA's analysis actually underestimates the greenhouse gas emissions of palm oil and the serious environmental problems that palm cultivation creates.
SAN FRANCISCO (4.24.2012)—Yesterday, agribusiness giant Cargill responded with misleading statements to a report recently released by Rainforest Action Network (RAN). RAN's report, Truth and Consequences: Palm Oil Plantations Push Unique Orangutan Population to Brink of Extinction, points out that Cargill has no safeguards on its global palm oil supply chain, and that without such safeguards Cargill cannot ensure it is not contributing to egregious violations like the one underway in Tripa peat forest of Indonesia.

A trough triggering isolated severe thunderstorms in parts of Queensland will move off the coast overnight leaving the eastern mainland clear and dry until Sunday when the next front arrives.
This front is the one in Western Australia triggering damaging wind gusts but it will weaken as it moves east. Temperatures will warm ahead of it as winds draw warmer air down from the interior. Rainfall with the change is not expected to be significant on the mainland but the north west and west coast of Tasmania could record some moderate to isolated heavy falls. Tasmania will also experience strong winds from Saturday afternoon to early Tuesday.
A high will move into the east behind the change with a quick turnaround to dry and sunnier conditions with a deep low south of Western Australia triggering another burst of showers and frontal activity by late Monday.

Help spread warmth with the Warm Coats and Warm Hearts Coat Drive
BURLINGTON, N.J., Nov. 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Burlington, a national off-price retailer offering designer merchandise at everyday low prices, will launch its seventh annual Warm Coats and Warm Hearts Coat Drive on Friday, November 1, 2013. The coat drive benefits Fashion Delivers, a national non-profit organization dedicated to providing apparel and other products donated by manufacturers and retailers to community charities across the U.S. and throughout the world. To date, more than 1.2 million coats have been distributed through the Warm Coats and Warm Hearts program.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20131101/NY08540LOGO)
The theme of this year's coat drive is "Style Is Giving, Share the Warmth with Others." It invites consumers to donate gently-worn coats at drop boxes at Burlington locations nationwide. Coats should be in good condition, with working closures and no rips or stains. As a thank you, those who donate will receive 10 percent off their entire purchase at Burlington through January 20, 2014. In addition, any customer who purchases a Coca-Cola product and joins My Coke Rewards, will be able to donate their points to Fashion Delivers to help fund the purchase of new coats for people in need.
"Giving back to local communities is a priority for Burlington, especially during the holiday season when so many are in need," said Thomas Kingsbury, president and chief executive officer of Burlington. "We are thrilled that the Warm Coats and Warm Hearts Coat Drive allows us to spread the warmth nationwide during the cold winter months by providing coats to people in need in communities surrounding our local stores."
ABC's Emmy Award-winning news program, Good Morning America, will be helping to promote the program via an on-air coat drive kicking off on November 14, 2013. The effort will help remind its millions of viewers about the ongoing need for coats all across the country, and demonstrate how people can help each and every day. Customers are asked to share stories and Tweet a selfie of them donating a coat and using #WarmCoats for their chance to have their selfie on Good Morning America. Customers who donate a large quantity of coats and share their stories with #WarmCoats may be selected to appear in a coat makeover segment on Good Morning America.
"We are proud to partner with Burlington on the Warm Coats and Warm Hearts program for the seventh year. This program allows us to show our commitment to helping people across the nation give to those in need through the donation of coats. Each year we are inspired by the good this program does and the people it touches," said Tom Cibrowski, senior executive producer, Good Morning America.
"We are thrilled to join Burlington on the Warm Coats and Warm Hearts program," said Allan Ellinger, chairman of Fashion Delivers. "The partnership allows us to deliver desperately needed coats to people nationwide through 269 community charities. This effort really makes a difference to those in need; it's amazing what the gift of just one coat can do."

Somewhere between two and three years later, and once again I push past 10,000 posts. Perhaps reflection is due once again.

Recipe by Inspired by Home Cooks
"Lots of taste sensations in this colorful, spicy, and refreshing bean salad."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, drained
1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 (10 ounce) package frozen corn kernels
1 red onion, chopped
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener, Granulated
1 tablespoon salt
1 clove crushed garlic
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 tablespoon ground cumin
1/2 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 dash hot pepper sauce
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
As a vegetarian without many vegetarian friends/coworkers, this is my go-to dish whenever we have cookouts or I need to bring a side. Everyone always loves it. I use 2 red bell peppers and omit the green pepper, use 1 can of corn instead of frozen, and I halve the olive oil. It's great eaten with a spoon or as a "salsa" substitute on chips. I've also used it as a topping for baked potatoes.
Nice flavor. Not spicy, though. I added chopped tomato and avocado and it made it even better. I will make this again because it was good, easy and healthy. Next time I will use half the olive oil, though.

I didn't have 100% of the veggies, instead I used only black beans and no green pepper. I chopped up a few jalapenos and the heat disseminated pretty well. I was a little leery of the vinaigrette but it turned out pretty well balanced, ill use that as a base fore some experiments in the future.
Awesome recipe, easy to make and gets better every day it sits! I used canned corn and it was fine, and I added chili sauce to make it a bit spicier. Thanks for sharing!!
Oh MY!! I loved this salad!!! SO VERY GOOD. I didn't use the Splenda but rather used white sugar to taste. Added extra cilantro (about a bunch), extra cumin and chili powder to taste and added a touch of paprika. I've been looking for a bean salad like this for some time....and now, I've found it. It's a KEEPER.
Very good salad; big solid flavors, but won't overwhelm other elements of whatever you're serving. I subbed in canned pinto and pinquito beans...not as pretty as the black beans and cannellinis, but one of the people eating had an irrational hatred of black beans, and kidney beans really don't do anything but lay there. I also used a mix of very good red wine and sherry vinegars, so the Splenda wasn't necessary. If you can, toast whole cumin seeds and grind them...a lot more flavor.
This is a Great Summer BBQ recipe! All Coloured Sweet Peppers added is the Best!
Excellent ....used 1 packet of Stevia sugar substitute instead of 2 full tblspns. This was sweet enough with 1 lil packet. Also had to use dried cilantro leaves..1tsp. And 1tsp each of cumin, dried corriander, and chili powder. Great dressing! This was really not spicy at all...but delicious non the less. I added red hot pepper flakes to mine. Will be a summer goto salad. Really very good and healthy.

Your Rating Product ValueBull 200 Jumbo Thick Low Odor 6in Bully Sticks My little guy only weighs 47lbs he is a shelty corgi mix. I should have named him "Jaws" he goes through most chew treats in less than 2 - 5 minutes. With these he works for at least 20 - 25 minutes. That means a lot to me. Sometimes I take one and jam it into one of your "Moo Tubes" and he gets an extra 5 minutes in there. Plus they are a healthy treat, since he has been having these 3 times a day, I notice his over all behavior has improved. Much calmer and very happy. (Posted on 3/10/11)

First wild breeding success for Whipsnade corncrakes
Monday 23 August 2004
A family of month-old corncrake chicks sighted on RSPB's Nene Washes reserve, near Peterborough has been hailed a great success by the breeding project partners, the Zoological Society of London (ZSL), English Nature and the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds
The reserve has been the focus of an on-going attempt to reintroduce the corncrake chicks which were bred at Whipsnade Wild Animal Park.
The corncrake - the world's most threatened bird to breed regularly in the UK - started to disappear from the English countryside more than a century ago, because of the introduction of more mechanised and intensive farming methods. Today this relative of the more familiar coot and moorhen only breeds in Britain and in the north and west of Scotland, where conservationists have been working intensively with local crofters and landowners to ensure the bird's continual survival.
Corncrakes reared at ZSL's Whipsnade Wild Animal Park have been released at the RSPB's Nene washes nature reserve in Cambridgeshire. 55 birds were released in 2003 with a further 59 this year. The project aims to release 100 young birds a year for the next 3 years.
The secretive corncrake nests in hay meadows and other grasslands where there is dense vegetation. There have been some tantalising records of calling male birds in Cambridgeshire this year and a sighting of a female on the reintroduction site. The family party of corncrakes found on the 18th August may be her offspring. This is probably the first time corncrakes have nested in Cambrideshire since 1955.
Ben Bradshaw MP, Minister for Nature Conservation, who helped release some of the young corncrakes last year, said: "The haunting sound of the corncrake used to be the sound of the English countryside in the summer. It will be marvellous if this re-introduction continues to succeed."
John Ellis, ZSL's curator of birds, said: "This is great news for corncrakes! It's so exciting that all the hard work hand-rearing them from eggs at Whipsnade has paid off with the birds migrating back to the release site and breeding to create another generation of wild corncrakes for England."
Ian Carter, English Nature ornithologist, said: "Reintroduction projects of this nature are not undertaken lightly. They are long-term commitments requiring considerable time and effort. Although there is a long was to go before the corncrake is fully restored as a breeding species in England this is very encouraging news".
The RSPB's, Director of Conservation, Mark Avery; "This is tremendous news and a real shot in the arm for the Corncrake Project. To get confirmation that corncrakes have nested in the wild in only the second year of the project is a really encouraging sign for the future and shows that the habitat has been managed so that it will support breeding corncrakes."

I wanted something that was light enought to pack to take on holiday that wouldn't crease. I also wanted something that didn't take up too much room in the suitcase. This product was ideal just what I was looking for and was a really good price.
09/05/2013 17:00:55
I loved it but wish I'd tried it on as it was a little small but I was en route to my holiday destination and didn't have time. It'd be perfect if it had pockets but I did know it didn't have before I bought it.
29/07/2013 14:18:52
Haven't worn it yet, but when I tried it on the head hole is a bit tight (I hope it don't shrink when I wash it or I won't be able to get it on again) once it was on it was nice and comfrey, soft and fitted ok.
10/10/2013 09:25:57
Bought this top yesterday, been looking for a hoody for some time & wanted one that's not too bulky. Fit is really good, love the colour and price was perfect for my budget. Would buy in another colour too.
26/06/2013 08:58:53
I think this fleece is AWESOME and I wear it all the time. So much so that I've decided to get a second so I have a wash and wear. It is cosy enough to wear on dry days and really does keep the wind out.
10/10/2013 19:04:22
Great warm, lightweight fleece. Rolls up easily to store in a backpack. Quite tight to get on/off over the head but this does mean that it fits snugly around the neck, keeping out the cold.
09/10/2013 17:14:26
This fleece is lovely and warm and soft. I have a small head and often find the hoods to be far too big. This one is just right and the arms are long, which is perfect for me.
26/07/2013 00:54:12
Had to return this item as the neck opening is quite small and I have a lot of hair which made the job of getting it over my head a scary experience. Seemed good quality though.
21/06/2013 21:01:17
A light-weight fleecy hoodie bought for summer holidays. My only gripe is at the label at the back of the neck is really itchy - but it will be perfect once I've removed that!
31/03/2013 12:53:06
A lovely warm top, wore on the sea front all morning and it proved its windproof a nice fit too. one down side i found the neck quite tight while putting over the head .
20/04/2013 11:37:30
this fleece keeps you very warm in cold conditions and has a high neckline which helps keep your neck warm to. The hood was also good for keeping the heat in :)
26/03/2013 16:32:14
I went in looking for a fleecy hoody for a reasonable price and found this, was also the last in my size so I grabbed it immediately! Fits perfectly and so warm.
25/07/2013 20:19:01
Bought this for a London trip and have just sown on a Guide badge. Lightweight and a lovely fit. Fashion conscious daughter loves it - hoorah!
21/08/2013 11:24:59
A very cosy hoodie. The neck area sits high which is great for keeping out the chill. Ideal weight for cool summer evenings and Autum wear.
24/06/2013 12:01:05
Love this jumper. Warm, comfortable, and nice fit: not too tight, but not too baggy either. Wears and washes great. Bought a second one.
13/07/2013 22:08:55
Lovely soft fabric but head opening a little neat fitting. Straight fitted body so order a bigger size if you have wider hips.
23/09/2013 16:49:13
Very cosy fleece. The neck is a little tight to get on but it keeps your neck warm when its on
31/07/2013 11:27:20
Found this when looking for a warm top/jumper for holiday to Scotland, this will be perfect.
05/08/2013 10:49:53
I would not hesitate to recommend your products to others. Excellent service all round.
05/08/2013 10:41:13
Nice fitting hoody with a nice feel. looking forward to wearing it this winter.

It's official: Elements 114 and 116 do exist and belong on the periodic table.
Well, when I say "exist," I really mean "existed." See, when scientists make them in the lab—by bombarding radioactive plutonium or curium with calcium nuclei—these atoms, the heaviest ever to exist, live for just a fraction of a second before undergoing radioactive decay. The only way to even know that the elements have been created is by studying that decay—measuring the time intervals between each step in the decay process and the energy of the alpha particles produced. (Check out the video below for a good explanation of how the elements were created and how scientists studied them.)
The properties of elements 114 and 116 are unknown, however, and are likely to remain so. "The lifetimes of these things have to be reasonably long so you can study the chemistry—meaning, pushing a minute," committee chair Paul Karol, of Carnegie Mellon University, told New Scientist.
The committee also evaluated research that claimed to have created elements 113, 115 and 118 in the lab, but the scientists deemed the evidence not yet strong enough to add them to the official periodic table.
Elements 114 and 116 have the unofficial names of ununquadium and ununhexium, but their discoverers will soon be able to submit their own ideas to another committee. "As long as it's not something really weird, they will probably say it's fine," said Karol.

[...] With the discovery of two new additions to the periodic table, announced this week, begins the hunt for two new names. The reported suggestions currently awaiting approval are flerovium, after the Soviet nuclear physicist Georgy Flyorov, and moscovium, after the Russian capital – the discoveries were made at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna, 100km north of Moscow, in collaboration with scientists from the Lawrence Livermore national laboratory in California.

Colbertum (as in the you know who show) Homerium (not the Illiad, but the idiot) seem to be the most inevitable choices.
the heaviest element should be called chucknorrium, for obvious reasons
If I were to rename the elements 114 and 116, I would call them Castlenium and Beckettonium, after my two favorite t.v. Characters, Richard Castle and Kate Beckett on abc's hit crime show called CASTLE.
Newtonium. If elements are named after distinguished scientists he seems an obvious choice.
