Not good for my dogs
By LL
from CA
About Me Long-time Pet Owner
Comments about Solid Gold SeaMeal Powder:
I tried using this several times, just to be certain it was the culprit. It gave my dogs, especially the male, dry nose and his nose turned more brown than black. For some reason it's just not agreeing with my dogs. I took them off it for several months each time before trying it again but the same thing happened every time. Now it's too late to return it but I don't like the effect it's having on my dogs
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

By nicole
from canada
Seems like a great product for dogs with allergies, but im not sure if I am seeing any results yet, just finished one bottle (1pound) and have one more to go. Dog is still licking paws and scratching (alaskan malamute). Might be good as just a supplement still. Price and shipping were alittle expensive. My malamute didnt really like the taste of the seameal haha very high matience I guess.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Good Supplement But No One Likes It
By Virginia
from Essex MA
The stuff works, gives great energy and joint relief, but it smells awful (fishy), tastes worse (bitter). The only way I can get my pets to eat it is to use teeny amounts in strong-flavored foods, like peanut butter for the dogs, tuna for the cats. But even that doesn't always work--and it's a pain to "dose" them several times a day. I tried dissolving it in warm water as instructed--it does not dissolve, it swells up! Also, not a powder--it is like fine sawdust.
no more poop eating
By teresa
from washington, dc
Lilly is my rescue dog who was eating her poop. Since mixing this in with her food, she no longer eats her poop. Amazing!
Awesome product--gorgeous coats!
By Kim
from Chicago, IL
I started using this 10 years ago with our first Portuguese Water Dog at the suggestion of our breeder. People on the street during our walks, her groomers, other dog owners, etc. would always comment on how gorgeous her coat was. Perhaps some was genetics, but we are using this on our two new dogs (one PWD, one mixed breed) with the same results. A good friend starting using on her PWD and couldn't believe the difference in his coat after a couple of months of use. This is worth every penny....and keep in mind that this jar will last a very long time.
Great Stuff!
By ddub
from Hawaii
This product has changed my dogs life. Our shepherd mix constantly itched and scratched. He was miserable. We changed to grain free food with no relief. Two weeks on SeaMeal Powder and the itching and scratching has stopped. I highly recommend this product to all dog owners. It's fabulous!
Works wonders!
By D Morgan
from Kansas City, MO
I sprinkle this on my cats (3) food daily and they eat it right up. I have one cat with food and skin allergies who gnawed a lot of his fur off during the summer - it's coming back in great and he has no adverse reaction to the product either.

great product
By Shih Tzu Owner
from Naples, Florida
About Me New Pet Owner
My dog groomer recommended this product after he learned my Shih Tzu was eating [*]. She has always been a picky eater, letting her food sit in her bowl for hours before she would eat it. Since adding the Solid Gold Seameal to her food she licks her bowl clean. I do not know yet if it will stop her from eating [*], but at least she is eating her food.
Excellet! Helped control dog's colitis..
By Anonymous
from Los Angeles, CA
I had read about Solid Gold Seameal in multiple places and decided to give it a try on my small dog that suffers from colitis. It has done wonders for helping her digest her food, and maintan healthy stools. Since she's a small dog, only a little bit is needed, and it lasts forever! If your dog suffers from serious digestive issues or diarrhea, I would give this a try...
Absolutley great for alot of things!
By Mary
from St. Cloud, MN
I commented before on this product and we have used it in our cats food for over a year and it is amazing how it keep our cats looking healthy. I do want to comment that since we have mixed this in their food, they have NEVER thrown up a fur ball. It is wonderful not have to clean up those nasty stains anymore. Buddy is a long haired cat and no problems. Hurray for this product!!!

It happens at stores everywhere: a cashier asks you to donate a dollar or two to charity at the cash register. Some shoppers say "not today" and make a dash for the door. Others give either out of guilt or a benevolent heart.
So, you're about to buy forty dollars' worth of groceries or pick up a toothbrush from the pharmacy or pay 10 bucks to see a movie and then ..."Also, I'd like to know if you'd be interested in donating to ..." insert some legitimate and perfectly deserving charity. You pause. A line of customers behind you awaits your response.
"I think for a lot of people, it's like: 'Oh, my God. I've just been to so many stores and at every checkout line everybody is asking for something," said Beatty Cohan, a psychotherapist. She said she likes these situations because they force the rest of us to pull our selfish noses from our cell phones and actually interact with the world around us.
"If guilt is a motivating factor, then so be it. So be it," she said. "Because we are very very self-absorbed and we are living in a very narcissistic world."
It works even better than you might imagine. Checkout charity campaigns raise hundreds of millions of dollars every year. But we can't attribute all of that to guilt.
Here's what some folks told us:
"I don't think it makes me feel guilty. If you can afford to give, you give."
"Lots of us need help, lots of organizations need help and a dollar makes a difference."
"It's only a dollar, and if it's a good cause, I'll give."
"I think it's an excellent idea to ask people for the dollar."
Checkout charities probably raise as much money as they do because most who give actually want to give. Instead of panic, guilt, and discomfort they get a sticker on the wall.

I would suggest that your suggestions avoid death threats, homophobia, leet speak, Family Guy references, misogyny, racism, spelling mistakes and the term "murder simulators." Ho ho!

Process and Tool, Chicken and Egg: Finding the Right Tools for Your Organization
Every organization faces challenges when it comes to replacing the tools used to accomplish its work. Should the organization adjust to doing things according to the way the tool is designed, or should the tool be customized to fit the way the organization works? We all know that customization is expensive; when it comes to large software purchases, the costs can be significant, and they often expand beyond product costs to include professional services, consulting, and training.
To complicate matters, we also have to choose between on-premises and hosted/SaaS delivery, pick a licensing model, decide whether it matters to us how closely aligned with ITIL or another framework we need the tool to be, and then consider a large number of other variables.
In the midst of all these decisions, we often fail to consider a few very basic steps:
Getting the right people involved
Asking the right questions before you start
Defining your processes before searching for tools
Finding hidden expenses
Deciding whether or not to customize
Measuring success
More than ever, it's imperative that we understand and serve the goals of our organizations (i.e., the businesses for which we provide services). The days when IT was essentially a black box, and could purchase new tools at will, are gone.

Tazo® Awake™ Loose Leaf Black Tea
Product Info
A breakfast-style black tea of malty boldness & bright flavor, invigorating any time of day.
Tasting Notes Malty, full, dense, dark cherries.
Enjoy this with: A blueberry muffin and an early, traffic-free commute.
Product Details
There's a fork in the road. Pick it up, you might need it later.
The sun peeks over the horizon through the clouds, a star streaks undetected across the sky and the world begins anew. This bold and flavorful blend of black teas will send you down the day's path wondering where it will take you and if it's possible to bring along a friend.
How to Brew
For Best Brewing
- Use one heaping teaspoon of loose leaves per 8 fl oz (236 ml) of 212F (100c) water.
- Let it steep for 5 minutes and wait for perfection.
Black Tea
Black tea is the fully oxidized leaf of Camellia sinensis and requires the most processing. The brewed liquor ranges between dark brown and deep red. Black teas offer the strongest flavors and, in some cases, the greatest astringency.
Did You Know?
While only three origin countries contribute to this blend, Tazo® Awake™ English Breakfast contains teas from as many as 15 different tea gardens within these countries.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by TheMVP Very nice shoe :D I love this show its comfortable,looks nice, and i can still kick the soccer ball around in it, however the only thing i dont like is that the tongue of the shoe rubs againts the top and makes a squeeking sound but its not noticable if there is noise going on around you, you can probably find a way to get around that but at any rate this shoe is very nice.

Some Quick Takes On The Grateful Dead, Cheap Trick, Ringo Starr And Many Other Artists
Thursday, September 13, 2012
An arrest warrant was issued for Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart. According to The Hollywood Reporter. Hart is wanted for allegedly assaulting a concert-goer on Saturday (September 8th) at a Mickey Hart Band show Harrodsburg, Kentucky at Terrapin Hill Farm. The warrant was issued following the alleged victim filing charges against Hart.
Semi-retired Cheap Trick drummer Bun E. Carlos is up in arms over not being included on the band's new track on the new charity disc, A Very Special Christmas - 25 Years. Carlos has been absent from the band's drum stool since 2010, with Rick Nielsen's son Daxx handling the drum duties. Carlos told Billboard he feels snubbed by the band recording without him, saying, "I'm a full member of Cheap Trick in all respects. Solely as an accommodation to some of the band members, I reluctantly agreed to take a temporary hiatus from touring. . . The other members have never seriously talked to me about my leaving the band permanently."
Carlos, who founded the band with Nielsen and Tom Petersson in 1973, says that he wasn't the only one shocked by his absence on the new Cheap Trick track: "The Special Olympics was as surprised by this as I was. . . they had no idea I wasn't on the record. And, I don't want them to lose an opportunity to support this great cause because of this. . . But Tom, Rick, and Robin (Zander) simply can't make a recording without me and call it Cheap Trick. . . (I'm) looking after my interests in Cheap Trick and doing my best to make sure we stand for what is great about rock n' roll."
Ringo Starr claims that despite the promotion, he's not on the new archival release Rory Storm & The Hurricanes Live At The Jive Hive, which is said to feature a pre-fame 1960 Liverpool gig by the band. Ringo told Beatlefan magazine: "It's not me, that was done after I'd left to join the Beatles. I don't know . . .who the drummer was but I hope that Rory fans enjoy it anyway. The only two tracks I was on were recorded while we were in Germany in 1960, when we made a two track acetate, and for those of you in the digi world that is 'a-ce-tate,' of 'Mailman Bring Me No More Blues,' a Buddy Holly song sang by Lou Walters, and 'Fever' -- and I'd love to hear those tracks 'cause I don't have a copy. Peace & Love, Ringo."
The Eagles' Glenn Frey has one last solo date on the books for this fall. Frey, who released the critically acclaimed After Hours standards set this spring, will perform on November 10th at Clearwater, Florida's Ruth Eckerd Hall. A week later, the Eagles will play their final show of 2012 on November 17th at Las Vegas' MGM Grand Garden Arena.
Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart will receive the 2,481st star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on September 25th in front of the Musician's Institute at 6752 Hollywood Boulevard. Guest speakers at the ceremony will be Alice In Chains' Jerry Cantrell and Mike Inez and actress Rita Wilson.
The band's joint autobiography -- Kicking And Dreaming: A Story Of Heart, Soul And Rock & Roll, will be published on September 18th. Their new studio album, Fanatic, will be released on October 2nd.
Heart performs on Friday (September 14th) in Hutchinson, Kansas at the Kansas State Fair Grandstand.
The 2012 inductees to the Long Island Music Hall of Fame will include the Lovin' Spoonful's Joe Butler and Steve Boone; Taylor Dayne; songwriter Ellie Greenwich; and Zebra, among others. Twisted Sister's Dee Snider -- already an inductee -- will be the recipient of the 2012 Harry Chapin Award. The 2012 Long Island Music Hall of Fame Induction Award Ceremony and Fundraising Gala will be held on October 18th at the Paramount in Huntington, New York.
Aaron Neville's upcoming album co-produced by Keith Richards and longtime Rolling Stones producer Don Was will be titled My True Story, and will be released on January 22nd. Among the classic '50s and '60's standards featured on the set are "Money Honey," "Ruby Baby," "Be My Baby," "Tears On My Pillow," "Under The Boardwalk," "Work With Me Annie," and "This Magic Moment."

|From left to right: Walter Powell (A.S.C.), W.J. Powell (father), Clifford Powell (brother), and Clara Powell (mother). Note on reverse in Walter Powell's hand explains that this was Taken when Cliff and I came home after Percy's death - compassionate leave. Percy Powell died in June 1917 aged 20, of wounds sustained on active service. The card appears to have been sent in October 1917, it is addressed: Love from Mum and Dad 28th October 1917.
Part of a collection relating to Walter H. Powell, Llandrindod Wells, (private / driver M2-267205 Mechanised Transport Army Service Corps). Born 1898, Walter tried to join up under-age on a number of occasions, finally succeeding in 1916. He served many months - (more than 2 years?) - in different army units in Britain, before going over to France. He served as a despatch rider for an anti-aircraft battery in 1918-1919. Walter was gassed suffering the effects all his life. He was a founder member of Toc-H in Llandrindod, and a keen footballer - he died in 1994 aged 96. However Walter's older brothers (Cliff and Percy Powell) and his uncle (Humphrey Powell) died of wounds sustained during the war.

The last time the Green Bay Packers got shut out in a Pre-Season game, a wicked thunder and lightning storm called off the contest with about six minutes left in the third quarter in what was a 9-0 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Canton, Ohio back in 2003. They could have called the 2013 exhibition opener about then as well, even with beautiful weather, as the Packers endured a sluggish 17-0 loss to the Arizona Cardinals, spoiling the night for a Lambeau Field record crowd of 73,738. The new south end zone upper deck has lifted the stadium's capacity to more than 80,000. There wasn't a whole lot that went right as the Cardinals parlayed a pair of backup quarterback Graham Harrell turnovers into touchdowns. The first came one snap after Harrell was intercepted by Patrick Peterson. New Arizona quarterback Carson Palmer hit Andre Roberts behind Davon House for a 38 yard touchdown with 4:10 left in the first quarter. In the second, Harrell got sacked by John Abraham who blew around right tackle Marshall Newhouse, forcing a fumble recovered by Sam Acho near midfield. Eight plays later, Drew Stanton threw a one yard fade route to Jaron Brown who beat man coverage from rookie Micah Hyde to make it 14-0. Jay Feely tacked on three more points in the 4th quarter with a 21 yard field goal after Will Baston missed a pair. The Pack's only serious scoring threat came on their first series. Aaron Rodgers hit James Jones with a pretty 50 yard go route up the left sideline but the starters stalled after having it first and goal from the six. After James Starks gained four yards, Rodgers missed twice and on 4th and goal from the 2, they went for it. Starks got bunched up at the one and was held short. Mike McCarthy challenged the call when replays appeared to show Starks reached the ball to the goal line while still upright in the pile. "Challenge" is McCarthy's catch phrase on the cellular telephone service he pitches on TV, but he lost his first of the year. Harrell gave way to Vince Young who made his debut in the third quarter, completing only 1 of three passes. He scrambled on back to back plays that got fans excited for a moment, but it was fleeting. The Cards outgained the Pack 355-223. Green Bay had seven first downs in the opening quarter, only six over the final three periods. Defensively, the secondary gave up big plays all night. Granted the group was without Tramon Williams and Casey Hawyard but Arizona quarterbacks found seven different receivers for gains of at least 17 yards. This unit has looked much sharper on the practice field than they did on the game field. Searching for bright spots, rookie David Bakhtiari made his starting left tackle debut and played every offensive snap in the first half, even after the rest of the first team departed. He held his own. James Starks got first dibs at running back and put up 38 yards on 12 carries, digging hard even with few running lanes. Free agent receiver Tyrone Walker led the team with five catches for 41 yards. Punter Tim Masthay nearly wore his leg out, kicking 8 times on the night. Johnny Jolly was pretty emotional playing in his first game in three years, against the team he last appeared in the NFL. The only injury noted by McCarthy was a sprained ankle suffered by number one pick Datone Jones. You gotta start somewhere and there's nowhere to go but up for the Packers as they'll take two days off to look at the film, make corrections and get back to the grind of camp before redemption can arrive next Saturday night in St. Louis against the Rams. McCarthy's summary can be heard on the link below.

Water Wizard for River Runners
Although designed primarily for river runners, this chemical treatment product works equally well for hikers and campers who need to settle the dirt and sediment out of water before filtering it or treating it for drinking. Follow the directions by adding the appropriate number of drops of the Water Wizard solution to muddy water, stir briskly, and within a minute or two the result is clean, clear water. The Water Wizard solution is actually polyaluminum chloride which has been in standard use for… Full review
The AquaClip is a clever gadget that I recommend for those using Platypus-style water bottles. While the Ultralightest may cringe at the added 11 grams, this hiker is please to have my water bottle accessible, without having to contort myself to reach the water bottle in my pack's side pockets. Preface: Five months ago, Brentbrook posted his review on the Aquaclip. That review focused on use with a disposable water bottle. I am not a fan of disposable bottles. So I asked in the comments section… Full review

SteriPEN Adventurer Opti
Have utilized the SteriPEN Aventurer Opti now on several outings this summer instead of my pump water filter systems and found it to be very simple and effective. On previous trips (before the SteriPEN), after a rain, the rivers and streams would be full of silt and dirt. That fine silt clogged my pump filtration systems. I tried different pump systems. I replaced filters. I backwashed the units. I found that back washing the unit once for every liter of water, no matter what pump system I was using,… Full review
Platypus Hoser
Great reservoir, no taste or smell, and no leaks. I've been a hiker for a while now and have always used a simple Nalgene bottle, but finally gave in and purchased this 3L Platypus reservoir to go in a reservoir compatible day pack I already owned. My first issue was that the sleeve in the day pack was too small for this enormous water bladder. Once I got it situated in my pack and routed the hose I was all set. The advantage of course is that when I want a drink I don't have to try and contort… Full review
SteriPEN Adventurer Opti
I have this and love it. I love it; it works well. But like any new gadget it does take a few times to get the hang of it. Granted the cost of the battery is a little pricey, but you should be able to use it a year on a set of batteries. So that's not really a big deal, not like I would ever use 6,000 gallons of water hiking in a year. It's a good packable size. I bought this because most methods of water purification is just awful tasting and the the thought of me drinking bleach water is just… Full review
MSR DromLite Bag
Light and effective water supply bag for backpacking. I've used the 6L sized bag for many years. I carry it empty until near camp and then fill it as a water supply for around camp. These DromLite bags are a little lighter than the black MSR Dromedary bags. They are sufficiently durable for backpacking. I've never had any leakage issues, and the contents have never had a bad taste. I once had to replace a bag that was punctured by a pair of teeth from a pesky rodent wandering around camp at night… Full review
MSR Dromedary Bags
I have borrowed the 10L dromedary from a friend a few times and love it! I have this dromedary on my list as one of my next purchases for sure. This dromedary stands up to a lot more than a plastic dromedary will. I have used it on a few treks and absolutely love it. It is very convenient that I am able to attach the dromedary to my backpack, instead of having to lug something by hand around to have water. Full review
Katadyn Vario Microfilter
An excellent compromise between performance, cost and weight, the Vario performs in a variety of different situations well. I have been very pleased with the performance of my Vario. It employs a similar glass fiber filter to the Hiker micro filter. The main advantages are the option to engage a ceramic prefilter to protect the main element. Personally I leave the ceramic filter in the 'on' position all the time. Even with the filter engaged, the flow rate is very good. Full review

text: If I could manufacture any invention, it would be the HomeBot. The HomeBot is a robot programmed to do basic chores such as vacuuming, sweeping, and dusting. The HomeBot stands about five feet tall and is made of an aluminum alloy outer shell reinforced by copper wire, so that it can be lightweight and portable. It could also be battery operated and on wheels so it wouldn't be hard to move around. The HomeBot could be programmed by a consumer. Its programming software could be stored on a CD-ROM that could be downloaded to one's desktop or laptop. The consumer could just take the robot for an once-over in the room. The HomeBot is especially useful for hotels and busy people. Most people don't have the money for an in-house maid or cleaning service. The HomeBot would be reasonably priced at $200 or less. HomeBots, because they have no emotions and cannot get fatigued, are more reliable than humans. The HomeBot also has a guaranteed warranty of 6.25 years, meaning you get a work for your money.

Smooshed Baby
Dear Lauri:
In my dream there was a baby that needed surgery. My husband was going to do it in the living room. My daughters walked thru but I blocked them from seeing. Then I was alone in another room and my daughters came in screaming and crying that the baby died because my husband sat on the baby. When he turned around I saw the flattened baby stuck to him. – Lisa 35, Wausau, WI
Lauri: The baby must be some new element in your life or hubby's life that needs repair or retooling in some way. Whatever this is, it must have fallen flat so to speak and did not work out, since the baby died and was smooshed! Or it could be that this new issue is causing you to feel stuck, just as the baby was stuck to your husband. Since you are trying to block your daughters from seeing all of this, your dream may be telling you it's best that they not know about all this in waking life.
Lisa replies: My husband recently started a new job in another city. He's gone during the week and home on weekends. We need to relocate and sell our house. I need to sell our house, find a new house, find a new job for me and figure out when to leave my current job. I will feel stuck until get the timing down for everything. We do try to keep the stressful parts from the kids to help them through this change.
Fascinating Sleep Fact: Do you wake up with sore, achy knees? It could be due to the way you curl up at night. When we sleep on our side, both knees can rub against each other, or one knee will fall slightly forward, says Rick B. Delamarter, MD, co-medical director of the Cedars-Sinai Spine Center in Los Angeles. This puts the pelvis at an awkward angle, exacerbating existing knee pain. Delamarter suggests placing a small pillow between your legs. This will cushion the knees, level the pelvis, fix spinal alignment and even alleviate lower back pain.

text: contentAtherosclerosis and Cardiovascular Disease Atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease take a huge toll on our society. More than 81 million Americans suffer from some form of cardiovascular disease, making it the leading cause of death in the country. As of 2006, cardiovascular disease was responsible for at least one in every 2.9 deaths in the United States (American Heart Association: Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics 2010). Despite the fact that cardiovascular disease is the single most deadly disease in the United States, most individuals, including most mainstream physicians, have a flawed fundamental understanding of the disease. The fact is, long before any symptoms are clinically evident, vascular disease begins as a malfunction of specialized cells that line our arteries. These cells, called endothelial cells, are the key to atherosclerosis and underlying endothelial dysfunction is the central feature of this dreaded disease. Not every person who suffers from atherosclerosis presents with the risk factors commonly associated with the condition, such as elevated cholesterol, but every single person with atherosclerosis has endothelial dysfunction. Aging humans are faced with an onslaught of atherogenic risk factors that, over time, contribute to endothelial dysfunction and the development of atherosclerosis. Maturing individuals must address all of the underlying factors that contribute to endothelial dysfunction if they are striving to protect themselves from the ravages of vascular disease. Regrettably, mainstream medicine has failed to identify and correct all of the cardiovascular disease risk factors. This means that people wishing to stave off atherosclerosis must take matters into their own hands to ensure that all underlying causes are effectively neutralized. In the antiquated view of mainstream medicine, blood vessels have been thought of as stiff pipes that gradually become clogged with excess cholesterol circulating in the bloodstream. The solution that physicians recommend most often is cholesterol-lowering drugs, which target only a very small number of the numerous factors that contribute to cardiovascular disease. Conventional medicine's preferred method of reestablishing blood flow in clogged vessels is through surgery (coronary artery bypass graft surgery) or by insertion of catheters bearing tiny balloons that crush the plaque deposits against the arterial walls (angioplasty), followed by the implantation of tiny mesh tubes (stents) to keep the blood vessels open. However, the grafts used to reestablish blood flow often develop plaque deposits themselves. The same was true for balloon angioplasty; in their early years, up to half of all angioplasty procedures "failed" when the arteries gradually closed again. Even today, with the use of improved stents, the failure rate is considerable and many people have to undergo repeat angioplasty or even surgery. Mainstream Medicine Overlooks Proven Alternative to Coronary Stents and Bypass Surgery: Enhanced External Counterpulsation (EECP) Stable coronary artery disease and angina can cause disabling symptoms including shortness of breath, pressure or discomfort in the chest, exercise intolerance, and fatigue. A safe, effective, non-invasive therapy for the symptoms of coronary artery disease and angina is now available. Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) alleviates cardiac symptoms by enhancing coronary collateral circulation—alternate pathways by which blood can reach the heart muscle. The procedure is performed in a series of outpatient treatments, in which inflatable cuffs wrapped around the legs inflate and deflate in rhythm with the patient's heartbeat. More than 100 published studies show that EECP can effectively relieve symptoms of heart failure, increase exercise tolerance, reduce reliance on medication, and improve quality of life. Benefits of treatment can last up to five years. This novel therapy simulates the circulatory benefits of exercise, allowing patients to overcome symptoms and resume a healthy, active lifestyle. To learn more about EECP, please review the article titled "Doctors Ignore Proven Alternative to Coronary Stents and Bypass Surgery" in the June 2008 issue of Life Extension Magazine. Endothelial Dysfunction: The Underlying Cause of All Vascular Diseases The cause and progression of vascular disease is intimately related to the health of the inner arterial wall. Blood vessels are composed of three layers. The outer layer is mostly connective tissue and provides structure to the layers beneath. The middle layer is smooth muscle; it contracts and dilates to control blood flow and maintain blood pressure. The inner lining consists of a thin layer of endothelial cells (the endothelium), which provides a smooth, protective surface. Endothelial cells prevent toxic, blood-borne substances from penetrating the smooth muscle of the blood vessel. However, as we age, a barrage of atherogenic factors, if left unchecked, damages the delicate endothelial cells. This damage leads to endothelial dysfunction and ultimately allows lipids and toxins to penetrate the endothelial layer and enter the smooth muscle cells. This results in the initiation of an oxidative and inflammatory cascade that culminates in the development of plaque deposits. Subsequently, these plaques begin to calcify and, over time, become prone to rupture. If a plaque deposit ruptures, the result is oftentimes a deadly blood clot. If people do not take steps to correct the endothelial dysfunction occurring in their aging bodies, the consequence will be a worsening of the epidemic of arterial disease that currently kills 35% of Americans and 30% of all people worldwide (American Heart Association: Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics 2010). Sadly, mainstream medicine continuously fails patients by prescribing drugs that address only a very small number of risk factors that contribute to the pathogenesis of vascular disease. Numerous factors that directly contribute to endothelial dysfunction have been identified and aging individuals can easily assess their risk for vascular disease through blood testing. The results of these blood tests can then be used to develop targeted intervention strategies to modify levels of risk factors that do not fall within an optimal range. Atherogenic factors that all aging individuals must be aware of include: Elevated LDL cholesterol. LDL is dangerous because it can penetrate the endothelial wall and contribute to the creation foam cells, which form the core of a plaque deposit. Oxidized LDL cholesterol (LDL that has been exposed to free radicals) within the endothelium also triggers an inflammatory process that accelerates vascular disease. Life Extension recommends keeping LDL cholesterol levels below 80 mg/dL. Low HDL cholesterol. HDL protects against vascular disease by transporting cholesterol from the blood vessel wall back to the liver for disposal through a process known as reverse cholesterol transport. If HDL levels are low, then reverse cholesterol transport becomes inefficient, allowing for increased accumulation of cholesterol in the vessel wall. HDL levels of at least 50-60 mg/dL are recommended for optimal vascular protection. Elevated triglycerides. Triglycerides interact with LDL cholesterol to form a particularly dangerous sub-type of LDL known as small-dense LDL. Small-dense LDL particles penetrate the endothelial layer and contribute to plaque formation much more efficiently than larger, more buoyant LDL particles. Life Extension recommends keeping fasting triglycerides below 80 mg/dL to limit the formation of small-dense LDL particles. Oxidized LDL. The oxidation of LDL results in severe vascular damage. Thousands of studies now reveal how oxidized LDL contributes to the entire atherogenic process from start to finish. Commercial blood tests are not yet available at affordable prices to measure oxidized LDL. Aging individuals should assume their endogenous antioxidant levels (superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione) are being depleted and that the oxidation of their LDL is progressively worsening (Matsuura, 2008). Many of the nutrient suggestions in this protocol afford considerable protection against LDL oxidation. Hypertension. High blood pressure is known to aggravate endothelial dysfunction and leading researchers have identified the endothelium as an "end organ" for damage caused by high blood pressure. Life Extension suggests a target optimal blood pressure of 115/75 mmHg (or lower). Elevated C-reactive protein. Inflammation is central to the endothelial dysfunction that underlies vascular disease. An effective way to measure inflammation is through a high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP) blood test. Studies have shown that higher levels of CRP are associated with increased risk of stroke, heart attack, and peripheral vascular disease (Rifai N 2001; Rifai N et al 2001). Stroke patients with the highest CRP levels are two to three times more likely to die or experience a new vascular event within a year than are patients with the lowest levels (Di Napoli M et al 2001). Elevated Lp-PLA2. Like CRP, Lp-PLA2 is a marker of inflammation. However, Lp-PLA2 is a much more specific measure of vascular inflammation than CRP. Lp-PLA2 is an enzyme secreted by inflamed vascular plaque, thus the quantity of it in circulation correlates with the amount of inflamed plaque in the blood vessels. Levels of Lp-PLA2 above 200 ng/mL are indicative of heightened levels of vascular plaque buildup. Elevated omega-6:omega-3 ratio. High levels of pro-inflammatory omega-6 fatty acids relative to anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids create an environment that fosters inflammation and contributes to vascular disease. It has been shown that lowering the omega-6:omega-3 ratio significantly decreases atherosclerotic lesion size and reduces numerous measures of inflammation (Wan, 2010). Life Extension recommends maintaining a blood omega-6:omega-3 ratio of less than 4:1. Elevated glucose. High circulating levels of blood glucose (and insulin) cause microvascular damage that accelerates the atherogenic process, partly by contributing to endothelial dysfunction (Beckman JA et al 2002). It has been shown that a fasting blood glucose level of greater than 85 mg/dL significantly increases risk of cardiovascular related mortality (Bjørnholt, 1999). Life Extension suggests keeping fasting blood glucose levels below 86 mg/dL. Excess insulin. As we age, we lose our ability to utilize insulin to effectively drive blood glucose into energy-producing cells. As glucose levels rise in the blood, the pancreas compensates by producing more insulin. As "insulin resistance" worsens, even more insulin is secreted in attempt to restore glucose control. Excess insulin is associated with a significantly greater risk of heart disease (Bonora, 2007). Life Extension suggests keeping fasting insulin below 5 mcIU/mL. Elevated homocysteine. High homocysteine levels damage endothelial cells and contribute to the initial pathogenesis vascular disease (Riba R et al 2004). Homocysteine levels are associated with risk of heart disease (Haynes WG 2002; Guilland JC et al 2003). To keep homocysteine-induced endothelial damage to a minimum, levels of homocysteine should be kept below 7-8 µmol/L. Elevated fibrinogen. When a blood clot forms, fibrinogen is converted to fibrin, which forms the structural matrix of a blood clot (Koenig W 1999). Fibrinogen also facilitates platelet adherence to endothelial cells (Massberg S et al 1999). People with high levels of fibrinogen are more than twice as likely to die of a heart attack or stroke as people with normal fibrinogen levels (Wilhelmsen L et al 1984; Packard CJ et al 2000). In a review which included data for over 154,000 patients, every 100 mg/dL increase in fibrinogen levels was associated with a significantly increased risk of developing coronary heart disease, stroke, and with vascular related mortality. In one study, those patients with the lowest one-third fibrinogen levels (mean 236 mg/dL) were much less likely to suffer a stroke, develop cardiovascular disease, or die of other vascular related causes when compared to those with the highest one-third fibrinogen levels (mean 374 mg/dL) (Danesh, 2005). This risk goes up even more in the presence of hypertension (Bots ML et al 2002). Fibrinogen levels should be kept between 295 to 369 mg/dl. Insufficient vitamin D. Vitamin D protects against vascular disease via several different mechanisms, including reducing chronic inflammatory reactions that contribute to the pathology of the disease. It has been shown that low vitamin D levels are associated with increased cardiovascular mortality (Dobnig, 2008). Life Extension suggests maintaining a 25-hydroxy vitamin D blood level of 50 – 80 ng/mL. Insufficient vitamin K. Vitamin K is essential for regulating proteins in the body that direct calcium to the bones and keep it out of the arterial wall. Low vitamin K status predisposes aging humans to vascular calcification (Adams, 2005; Beulens, 2009; Schurgers, 2007), chronic inflammation (Morishita, 2008), and sharply higher heart attack risks (Geleijnse, 2004). Vitamin K blood tests assess levels of vitamin K to maintain healthy coagulation, but at this time are not used to identify optimal levels to reduce heart attack risk. However, there is a substantial amount of evidence that suggests that supplementation with vitamin K (as K1, MK-4 and MK-7) easily corrects the vitamin K deficits that are so common among Americans today (Nouso, 2005; Lin, 2005; Braam, 2004; Berkner, 2004; Gunther, 2004). Low testosterone and excess estrogen (in men). Numerous studies link low testosterone (and excess estradiol) with increased heart attack and stroke risk (Wranicz, 2005; Abbott, 2007; Tivesten, 2006; Dunajska, 2004). Testosterone is intimately involved in the reverse cholesterol transport process, which removes cholesterol from the arterial wall by HDL. Excess estrogen is linked with higher C-reactive protein and a greater propensity for abnormal blood clots to form in arteries, causing a sudden heart attack or stroke (Stork, 2008; Zegura, 2006). Men should keep their free testosterone in a range of 20 – 25 pg/mL and their estradiol levels between 20 – 30 pg/mL (Jankowska, 2009). Insufficient CoQ10. Supplemental CoQ10 alters the pathology of vascular diseases and has the potential for prevention of vascular disease through the inhibition of LDL cholesterol oxidation and by the maintenance of optimal cellular and mitochondrial function throughout the ravages of time and internal and external stresses. The attainment of higher blood levels of CoQ10 (> 3.5 micrograms/mL) with the use of higher doses of CoQ10 appears to enhance both the magnitude and rate of clinical improvement (Langsjoen, 1999). Nitric oxide deficit. Nitric oxide is an important messenger molecule required for healthy cardiovascular function. Nitric oxide enables blood vessels to expand and contract with youthful elasticity and is vital to maintaining the structural integrity of the endothelium, thus protecting against vascular disease. Even when all other risk factors are controlled for, the age-related decline in endothelial nitric oxide too often causes accelerated vascular disease unless corrective measures are taken. Commercial blood tests are not yet available at affordable prices to assess nitric oxide status. Aging individuals should assume they are developing a nitric oxide deficit in their inner arterial wall (the endothelium) and follow simple steps outlined in this protocol to protect themselves (Yavuz, 2004; Cai, 2000; Nitenberg, 2006). The VAP™ Test: Measuring the Atherogenic Potential of Blood Lipids The Vertical Auto-Profile (VAP™) assesses subclasses of lipids that are known or emerging risk factors for cardiovascular disease, such as LDL particle size and lipoprotein(a) (Kulkarni, 1995). This enables cardiologists and nutritionists to help high-risk patients to identify these new risk factors for cardiovascular disease that are based on the amounts and sizes of cholesterol and other fat molecules that circulate in the blood. Comprehensive tests such as the VAP™ can provide the highly specialized information that doctors and patients need to make informed decisions about diet, lifestyle, supplements, and medication changes. One of the chief advantages of the VAP™ method over other techniques of measuring lipid profiles is that it can determine not only the types of cholesterol particles (HDL, LDL, VLDL, etc), but also their individual size and density(Ensign, 2006; Kulkarni, 1997). That's vital because people who produce small, dense LDL particles, for example, are known to be at increased risk of heart disease (Kulkarni, 1997). The VAP™ test also measures lipoprotein(a), a particularly dangerous lipoprotein that can lead to heart attacks and strokes. Knowledge of particle size and density is critical for determining the next steps in management of people who may have achieved their "target" lipid values, but who still have high-risk lipid particle types (Brook, 2005). In essence, the VAP™ provides a "higher-resolution" picture of what's really going on in a person's lipid profile, allowing them to customize their management regimen. It can even help detect early risk factors in people who have apparently "normal" lipid profiles on older kinds of tests—according to Dr. Kulkarni, one of the experts who helped to develop the test, "because VAP™ measures so many different parameters of the lipid profile, it can identify patients at high risk for coronary heart disease who cannot be identified using the standard lipid profile" (Kulkarni, 2006). The VAP™ can be used to monitor the results of specific treatments, such as statin therapy (Miller, 2006), to assure that goals are being met. When the VAP uncovers hidden risk factors, additional approaches using diet, lifestyle, supplements, and certain drugs are advised.

If you just went by what beef is pricing at either the grocery store or restaurant you would think that the beef producer is having a pretty good year. However, you would be wrong. Those higher prices have helped to offset costs, but input costs are still challenging their profit margin.
Over the past two to three years cattle inventories have been depleted by liquidations due to the impact of drought. This year there had been hope to bring those numbers back. But as you just heard, high feed costs and poor pasture lands have limited any growth in inventory. Add to that the devastating impact of that early October blizzard in South Dakota and cattle numbers remain tight.
Next year may be a different story, but near term, few segments of the cattle industry are making any reasonable returns. The higher retail prices have also caused some pain at the check-out counter and as a result some consumer are looking to other protein alternatives to beef. This soft market demand hasn't been limited to just domestic markets either. Mexico, formerly a big buyer of U.S. beef continues to back off on purchases, pointing to the devaluation of the peso, higher beef prices and the availability of other less expensive protein options.
Because of our dairy industry and those animals ultimate trip into the beef market, beef interest in the state are concerned over consumer price resistance and how that negatively will impact our states' growing beef market. Many people don't realize the impact of beef on the states ag economy. Even though this is the dairy state and beef farms are much smaller, Wisconsin actually has more beef operations than dairy.
So again, next time you're at the butcher shop or meat case, don't be fooled by the price. It's not providing a big pay day for beef producers.

One of the most enjoyable tasks you will have on your trip to Santa Barbara, CA is choosing which of the lovely hotels along the coast to reserve for your stay. You will find familiar nationally branded hotels here, but you will also find a high percentage of independently owned and operated inns and hotels with unique, beachtown-chic personalities.
Santa Barbara Hotels are clustered around the Santa Barbara Harbor area and along East Cabrillo Blvd. toward the zoo, providing premium lodging for your stay in Santa Barbara. There are also a number of good hotels and charming bed and breakfast inns along State Street as it heads inland from the coast, continuing as the street turns west. There are surprisingly good options with reasonable rates along the State Street route, but that area is a livelier section of town. If you enjoy the vibe of the busy city center, this will be a perfect choice for your stay in Santa Barbara. And keep in mind that Santa Barbara is home to the original Motel 6, which is still in operation with a recent renovation. No longer $6, the rooms are still very affordable.
Toward the airport and the city of Goleta, a few more hotels dot the map providing more affordable rates the farther they are from the city of Santa Barbara and the coast. On the opposite end of the scale, there are also several exclusive ranch and spa properties nestled on the hillside toward the Santa Ynez Mountains, away from the coast as well as the city, providing privacy and luxury on your Santa Barbara trip.
Because of proximity to the ocean, many hotels do not have pools. Others have both beach access and pools, some of which are quite affordable. The luxury ranch and spa resorts, as expected, have an abundance of amenities, leaving you wanting for nothing during your stay in Santa Barbara.

Twelve Moments In The Dead Of Summer1. The sunlight glistens on her wet skin as she's walking towards the beach. He has never seen anything so beautiful in his life and even if the words seem to dry up in his throat, he knows what he is going to do next.2. It hasn't rained for months now so it only takes a small spark from the cigarette to set the undergrowth on fire. On the first sign of fire they panic and run, never to look back but to remember years later, in nightmares, the crazy old man who lived in the shack nearby and was never seen since.3. They lay together on the grass, watching the sun slowly go down behind the treeline. He takes her hand, old, wrinkled and frail into his, and whispers: "I would give up everything I have for one more summer like this". She responds: "Darling, you already did that years ago". They burst into giggles, just like the one he was supposed to take her dancing for the first time and got lost on the way, and it seems that all these years haven't changed anything at all.4.

Comments On Apr 13, 2014:Tires look like nice. I'm looking forward to getting some miles on, to test them out. There 's more flash around the tires then I have ever had on a new set of tires but it will not affect the tires and will come off after a few miles. Tread depth is 3\4" and on my rims the 26" tires measured 25.5 to 25.75 inches tall. If they perform well these will be a great deal.
Additional Comments On Jun 01, 2014:I have now put about 150 miles on these tires. They seem to perform well they don't offer the traction of the directional mud tires but that is what I was looking for. A good trail tire that will provide smooth consistent traction while allowing some sporty feel by allowing some ability to slide. My only issue is there is a bit of vibration above 35 mph so I'll see if I van get them balanced.

Comments On Nov 13, 2013:I bought a set of these to replace my stockers, which had 2200 miles. The Tusk HDs came in at a great price and were shipped really fast. I had concerns about ride quality due to the 6-ply carcasses, but they're great at 9 psi for pavement, graded gravel, and light off-road use. So far great in the mud too, and side-slide is much less than the worn stockers. I recommend these to everyone who will listen. At 500 miles, they show no visible wear, so I'm hoping for great life.

Comments On Oct 16, 2013:Work Great on ATV's- but if you ride hard or aggressively in rocks you better spend the extra $ on "Big Horns" especially if you are putting them on a SXS. Seem to hold up and wear well in any other kind of terrain. :)

two 18" squares of quilt batting
1 1/2 yards (22" wide) iron on interfacing, if desired. (i used a lightweight Pellon interfacing.)
magnetic snap closure (optional)
template plastic-4.5" x 11", with corners rounded
choose 16 charms for each side of the bag and layout in a pleasing arrangement
trim each charm square down to 4.5" square
assemble squares into a 16 patch block using a 1/4" seam allowance, pressing well.
repeat for other piece of patchwork.
pin and sew on the line.
trim off the triangles about 1/4" from the marked line
repeat on the other side.
cut 2 squares of chambray 16.5" for the lining, and two rectangles that measure 4.5" x 20" for the handles. interface if desired.
open and press each side (again lengthwise) in toward the center fold line. then fold in half and press again, which will encase the raw edges inside the handles. pin well.
tack the handles onto the main body of the bag. this step saves the need for excessive pinning later on.
