Service Vest Controversy
EBay listing causes anger

As a therapy dog evaluator, I've had people tell me bluntly that they intend to use their therapy dog certification to confuse people into thinking they have a service dog. One woman told me that she had already ordered a vest for her dog so that she could take him into restaurants. Our organization does not allow the wearing of vests so that our dogs cannot be mistaken for service dogs. Obviously, the people who brag to me what they intend to do are not going to pass the evaluation with their dog.
I have friends who raise service dogs and I know how much serious work is involved in training these dogs. It makes me very angry that people are willing to pass off their dogs as service dogs, not realizing the damage they are doing to the true service dog organizations that provide the needed help to the disabled.

Hi Cindy - I totally agree with you. My family and I raise service dogs for Canine Companions for Independence (cci.org). We are raising our 5th puppy for CCI at this time, we also have two release dogs from the program. We bring our puppy in training with us everywhere. He has flown with us on a plane, driven cross country, visited many, many restaurants, museums, stores, events, weddings, funerals - you name it, and he goes to work with me everyday. We do this in order to desensitize the dog to new situations, and to him all these activities have become 'no big deal', which is exactly what our goal is. Not every puppy makes it through the advanced training and as soon as we receive a release dog back the cape is no more. Release dogs do not have the privilege of going with us everywhere anymore.
And that's OK.
It pains me to think that people would try to cheat their way in to bringing a dog that is not truly a service dog or a service dog in training into situations where they have not been trained to be behaved. This could actually be considered dangerous with certain types of dogs. I don't think people understand that this practice also takes away from the fact that as puppy raisers we put thousands of hours in to socializing and training these dogs to help people with REAL disabilities. It is a selfish owner who 'fakes the cape'. They are not thinking of others, only themselves.

While I find it VERY unethical for someone to pose their dog as a service dog when it isn't, I think it points to a deeper problem we have in this society. I just came back from England where dogs are allowed nearly everywhere, and it was a beautiful thing! And the dogs were well socialized and well-behaved. I think those of us that have dogs want to take them with us where we go, and we are imbedded in a society that says "Dogs Not Allowed" nearly everywhere- restaurants, stores, beaches, parks, and many places where they should be allowed if they are socially appropriate and trained. So it sets up a situation where, if you want to take your dog someplace where "Dogs Not Allowed" is the rule, you wind up having to lie.
A better solution would be for us all to work to get more places to allow us to have our well-behaved dogs with us, service dogs or not.

I have to admit that on more than one occasion I've joked that it would be nice to have one for hotel/motel access. I travel a lot for work and at times it's difficult to find a hotel that will let us stay there without taking us to the cleaners for Misty's fee.

With little exception dogs/animals are considered property and have no legal rights--and globally there are virtually no exceptions. Because of our inability or lack of desire to accommodate other animals, they are the ones who suffer most because of our limitations.
As stated in the article, any dog's companion must simply state that it is a service animal. And, fortunately at this time, no "proof" is necessary, (making the vest unnecessary, a waste of money and insulting to people with disabilities). This lack of proof/legal limitations actually allows us the freedom to be accompanied and loved by beings most of us consider family. And for many of us these beings could be the extent of our family.
Perhaps people with disabilities should have the final say regarding the definition of service animals, however, EVERYONE would benefit greatly from animals having a bigger presence in society. Obviously, dogs who would otherwise be left in cars or home alone all day, would welcome the freedom. But without a doubt, OUR animal need for animal contact is undeniable, desirable and even necessary.
(And for those who do not wish to associate with certain animals; they don't have to. Even large animals can be kept well within a six foot radius of personal space. And there are already laws in place that protect people from aggressive or unleashed animals--that's nothing new.)
As to "The legitimacy of all service animals comes into question when people try to pass off their dogs as service animals" is a curious concern because if you are a person with a disability why would you assume that you may not be accompanied by your service animal? These limitations are generated by the fear of losing well established legal rights and there is no basis for that whatsoever. As a matter of fact, the more visible and accepted animals are in every facet of daily life only strengthens the status and legitimacy of ALL animal presence.
Here we have a personal freedom that brings incalculable happiness and health benefits to society and too often, especially as americans, we are ready to criticize, regulate and limit our/animals freedoms because of fear. My hope is that we all can celebrate and promote the inclusion of all animals in our human society and learn to respect that they have as much right to exist here as we do. We tend to measure fairness and legislate according to our rights when the much bigger issue is the cessation and relief of suffering for all beings.
No one will ever convince me that animals do not suffer; and suffer as greatly as we do. I believe that humans are bound by our privilege and resources to care and provide for the live's of the animals we affect so profoundly. "The measure of society is how it treats it's poor, it's wretched, those yearning to be free…"

Thank you for your eloquent reply. I remember when I got my first dog, I just assumed that here in Los Angeles, an enlightened society, that I could bring her to cafes, restaurants, stores, etc. Well, the reality was we were treated rudely wherever we went and sternly ordered to leave.

Amen. I've worked in the disabilities community for 13 years & I've seen & heard a lot of things. One place I worked claimed her 10 yr. Old pittie was her service dog. I love animals, & I love Pitts- but this dog would go after people, there were other issues as well that just weren't cool. I have "hidden" disabilities, an auto-immune condition(s). I really love animals very much & know what an important role service & therapy dogs (animals) play in our lives. I also know how much love, dedication, hard work, time, skills, money, & community effort/cooperation goes into creating these amazing service animals.

After all the hard work that people have put in for years to get service dogs accepted, it's horrible to see that others would want to undermine that just for their own convenience. I would love to take my dog everywhere but I know that she wouldn't behave in the exemplary manner of service and therapy dogs, so I am fine to leave her at home. A dear friend has a legitimate therapy dog and she's a wonderful ambassador for dogs everywhere - it's awful that people would lie and end up misrepresenting these dogs and the efforts of so many people.

I have a friend who purchased one on ebay so she could fly her dog for free. She tried to convince me that her dog 'earned' it at the pet store class. Don't insult my intelligence! I wish the airlines would make it a practice to ask for proof -- people should NOT be able to get away with such unethical behavior.

If you are using a vest or an identification card to portray your pet as a service animal you should be charged with a felony. I am almost finished with training my lab as a service animal. It has been a liberating experience,'working with my dog. Seeing him progress learning how to stand in position to help me to my feet providing balance for me. It has been a humbling experience as well. EBay should be ashamed. They should take measures to prohibit the abuse of service dog training

Well, obviously the wording was inappropriate and the poster should be informed as to the seriousness and implications for the suggestion to represent a dog as an assistance dog when in fact it is not. People with disabilities who have these dogs face personal battles for the right to have these dogs accompany them in public.
As a professional trainer who works with assistance dogs and has recently trained my own, I encounter these issues on a regular basis. People actually do try to get away with taking a pet that is inadequately trained and does not function as an assistance (service)dog or meet social control requirements in public as a "service dog." Many people aso get "service dogs" confused with "therapy dogs."
Business owners need to be aware of their rights - they can ask if the animal is an assistance (service) dog and ask what tasks the dog has been specifically trained to perform to mitigate the individual's disability. They may not ask about the person's disability. A vest or ID is not required, but the dog must be under good control or the business owner may ask the handler to leave. The handler may return without the dog.

I believe that the folks who have such low ethical foundation do not deserve to have a pet masquerade as a service dog. My sentiment has increased since I started raising puppies for Summit Assistance Dogs nearly 3 years ago!
All it takes are a couple of poorly socialized pups who are not public access trained to devastate the reputation of the properly trained and certified assistance dogs. If your dog is not an UNOBTRUSIVE helper then something is not quite right...
The all-too-visible poorly trained dogs are also a serious risk to the safety and acceptance of the professional assistance dogs throughout our communities. I hate nothing more than hearing someone claim "I have my Doctor's note" as 'proof' it is a service or assistance animal.
Part of my job as a puppy raiser has been to gently educate without being harsh, overly rude or discourteous. Many people have complimented 'my' pups and wished that more of the dogs that come through their doors were half as good as the "real thing".
OK - stepping down off my soapbox now. ;-)

I trained my own dog for a "hidden" disability. At the time he was frankly a part time alert dog and more of a convenience, so he did not wear a vest, just the harness and pack I was using to expand his ability to increase my independence. I took him only dog-friendly places, or asked permission. Surprisingly, many places like Walmart, fast food places, Starbucks, Target, etc, you simply walk up to the greeter or counter and say, "This is Sam. He alerts if I am about to have a panic attack, and is training to do x-y-z." You will be unlikely to be turned away. I never was. It was an empowering exercise, too, because I have severe social phobia.
I finally realized I needed a vest to try to stave off good natured ambushing from folks who think every dog exists to be petted. My symptoms worsened and now Sam MUST stay in position and pay attention while on duty. He meets minimum standards for full access, also, though I still consider him in training as he does not meet MY minimum standards! So I no longer approach and ask. I'm learning who challenges and who does not.
More merchants need to be educated on their own rights. They are allowed to ask what trained tasks the service dog performs for the person. They may also contact ADA to clarify access issues. I suspect if they politely ask the partners in question to wait in a comfortable place, with a beverage, and make that call, cape fakers will suddenly remember their errand at that location wasn't that urgent.
I would only bother if the dog were obviously ill trained and a potential problem for other customers.

As a puppy raiser for Guide Dogs for the Blind and guest blogger here at The Bark I take this issue to heart. I understand the desire to bring pets dogs into public places and there are plenty of public places that willingly accept well behaved pet dogs. Most restaurants allow dogs on patios or at outdoor tables, a number of national hotel chain are pet friendly. I am a firm believer that a service dog should be trained by an accredited school whether it be for the blind, phyisically diabled, developmentally disabled, or an alert dog. A dog in a therapy vest does not below in a grocery store, airport etc. The same can be said for owner trained service dogs, even with the best intentions, the average pet owners is not educated to train a service dog. I've run into "service dogs" that lunge at my puppy, are taking food off grocery store shelves, deficating in buildings and more. All of these actions lead government officials and local business owners with less tolerance of actual service dogs. My dog will one day be tasked with keeping a blind person safe and allowing them to maintain or gain back their independence. Misrepresenting a service dog will continue to be a problem and will ultimately end with access issues for the disabled. At the end of the day those that really need it will be at the losing end of the battle.

It seems this problem is becoming more rampant. I am disabled and have a service dog. I love the Renaissance Faire and she comes with me every day of every weekend for the run of Faire. Last year an employee tied a piece of fabric around her dog and "passed" her dog off as a service dog. The dog attacked my service dog, who was traumatized by the action. (I later found I could have brought charges against her, damn.) This year she again brought the "service dog" and it bit a child on the face! It should be noted that this woman is either able bodied or has a hidden disability as she walks 2 miles 3 times a day in a parade! This time charges WERE brought and the dog was taken from her.
Undeterred, the management continued to allow visibly able bodied people to bring in pets as "service dogs" (service Chihuahuas in purses??) and by the last day there were 6 untrained, disruptive dogs there. Their excuse? They were afraid if they questioned dog owners they would be sued.
Faire is a loud, crowded place with over 10,000 people, cannons going off, people yelling, dropped food on the ground, and many other things that even the best of dogs need to get used to. Many people think that just because their dog is a "good" dog, and loves people, they can take them anywhere. Dogs are easily frightened by new experiences and you can mentally "hurt" your dog by exposing them to places like this. Even the most well trained service dog would take an hour or two to acclimate themselves to this type of environment.
To those who think dogs should be able to go everywhere, this warning. If you insist your dog is a Service Dog (when it is not) and it bites someone, even if you don't think it is your dog's fault, say goodbye to your dog. The woman I mentioned may have had her dog put to sleep over this incident (I don't know the end of the story but I think she copped out and admitted it wasn't a service dog). Service Dogs go through hundreds of hours of training. Putting a vest on your dog and going into a public place begs for catastrophe. In most states your dog CAN be put down for a single bite.
It is also illegal and YOU CAN go to jail:
(b) As used in this section, "owner" means any person who owns a guide, signal, or service dog, or who is authorized by the owner to use the guide, signal, or service dog.
Please, leave your pets at home.

It doesn't become a fake serviced dog vest until it is put on a fake service dog. If Internet sales of service dog vests are banned, where does the owner trainer purchase a vest? ADA is clear regarding owner trained service dogs. Instead of restricting a free market, enforce existing laws prohibiting fake service dogs. Educate the public on the right to have a dog removed that is disruptive, aggressive, or not housebroken.
I am a owner trainer. My dog has been privately professionally trained. There is a shortage of program dogs
I want easy access to products on the Internet. I don't want to carry a disabled ID card.

Crysis 2 Review
Around an hour before Crysis 2's single-player campaign is finished, a character utters the perfect phrase to summarize the universe created by developer Crytek: "This isn't war. This is the future."
It's a summary that fits with the developer's thoughts on both game engine and gameplay design. Though there may have been fears that bringing Crysis 2 to consoles would turn it into another military shooter clone, the game retains its strategic roots in the way it allows players to approach combat situations.
This is primarily due to the super-powered Nanosuit that the game's hero wears throughout the experience. There are three core elements to the suit: power, stealth, and armor. Power allows players to jump high into the sky, detach stationary weapons, and run at super speed. Stealth makes the player nearly invisible. Armor protects the player from incoming fire and fall damage. Each of these elements is fueled by a power bar: using an ability drains the meter.
Deciding when and how to use the abilities splits into two paths itself. I found that dismantling a group of CELL soliders (human mercs working for Crynet, the corporation responsible for the Nanosuit) with stealth worked better, whereas attacking the invading alien race (the Ceph) with armor activated offered a better chance of survival. But your tactics may vary based on your style. (Video below captured from my PC session, showing an example of how abilities work well together to formulate a strategy.)
That's what's so wonderful about Crysis 2. Though the individual mission objectives are linear at their core the only limitation to achieving them is the player's imagination. Everyone plays to the same goals; how you get there is up to you. Very few shooters can make this claim; even fewer on console. It's more strategic than your typical shooter and far more interesting and enjoyable for it.
Another strategic element is the world itself. Fans of the original title in the series--released in 2007--might be disappointed that the world of Crysis 2 within the walls of New York City is much more confined than the lush jungles of the Lingshan Islands from the original game; however, there are plenty of tactical options available to players in each battle zone. Each area offers the player a number of approach points, utilizing the world both horizontally and vertically. These multiple paths from above and below the game's levels are another notch that Crysis 2 proudly etches into its belt.
But there are also issues that infest the world of Crysis 2, including a forgettable story, A.I. problems, and more. The game's story is a confusing amalgamation of every alien invasion narrative you've seen in other games and movies. Its "twists and turns" and "betrayals" are obvious from the start. Things start to come together a bit by the end; however, it's filled with a number of plot holes and clichés.
Crysis 2 also has a number of issues with A.I. paths and collision detection. If enemies are investigating normally, there is no issue; however, once they being to take new paths based on your action, they often get caught on the world's geometry. This is especially evident in indoor areas.
There are far too many levels in Crysis 2 that force players into buildings, sewers, and subway stations. The world shows off glorious vistas with arresting bright visuals in the outdoors of New York City and then quickly shuffles players into a dark, grim corridor to progress the story. I take umbrage with this design decision primarily because Crysis 2 is such a gorgeous game to look at. It would have been nice to keep the action in the visually interesting areas. On PC with "Extreme" settings enabled, Crysis 2 is stunning and, on console, it's easily one of the best looking games ever released. The game also features great audio from its sound effects to its score.
Though Crysis 2 didn't lose its gameplay and engine spirit in its transition to consoles, it did lose a lot of hardcore PC options. There are only three pre-defined graphical settings and a handful of extra options. Players that like to get in and tweak their graphical experience will be extremely disappointed. Also included is a checkpoint save system, which I personally feel should never be the only option offered to PC gamers. (Note: There are already third party tools available to unlock more advanced graphics options.)
Since 3D has been a big push for the game across all platforms at press events, I thought I would utilize my equipment and check it out. Though I ran into issues with previous titles, Crysis 2 in 3D is amazing. The effect doesn't go overboard--even on highest settings--and doesn't strain the eyes. In 3D, every set-piece moment in the game jumps out with gorgeous clarity. If you have the equipment or if 3D has piqued your interest, Crysis 2 does a great job of showing off the tech.
Multiplayer in Crysis 2 may seem like just another persistent character experience; however, the addition of Nanosuit abilities gives its online component an added level of strategy. The game has a number of standard modes, but the one that appealed the most to me was Crash Site, where two teams fight to defend alien pods that drop into the map at random locations during the match. The multiplayer experience is fun; however, there are a few headaches plaguing the game right now. For one, the game keeps asking me to type in my serial code and constantly tells me, when attempting to join a game, that my key is in use. If you can get in on the action, it's frantic and a lot of fun. (Note: Crytek has a list of issues they are working on.)
Due to the issues, it's difficult for me to say whether or not the game will continue to grasp my long term attention; however, I want to keep playing it, which says a lot.
Crysis 2 is a more focused sequel to a solid first effort. Though the narrative is lacking, it's a beautiful world with a fantastic strategic layer woven into its core gameplay. There are bumps in the road and a few missing parts for PC players, but Crysis 2 is something you can't miss.

Yaffa Gunner, active member of the Jewish Community of Amherst, was interviewed by Allie Brudney on May 15, 2012, at the Yiddish Book Center in Amherst, Massachusetts.
Yaffa Gunner begins her interview by describing her family background; both of her parents were born in Hungary and immigrated to the United States. Her father left for the US before the First World War, but her mother only managed to arrive after the war ended, with two children in tow. Yaffa's parents owned a bakery in the New Jersey town where they settled. She explains that the whole family had asthma from living above the bakery. Due to her asthma, Yaffa did not live with her parents for much of her childhood, instead moving in with her aunt and sister at various times.
Yaffa was very active in Hashomer Hatzair (The Youth Guard), a Socialist-Zionist youth movement. She explains that she first attended a meeting because a friend brought her along. She quickly realized that she felt very comfortable with the youth movement; the gender equality, as well as the political activism, drew her closer to the movement. Nevertheless, throughout her time in Hashomer Hatzair she remained uncomfortable with the Zionist leanings, while she felt more comfortable with the socialist ideals.
During World War II, Yaffa became head of the Eastern Bronx Chapter of the Hashomer Hatzair. It was while she was working in the leadership of the movement that she first met her future husband, Haim Gunner. Haim was quite active in the youth movement in Winnipeg, Canada. She had to correspond with him, and as they both explain, he wrote back correcting her grammar! Despite their initial disdain for one another, during their time in Israel they got to know each other better and fell in love.
On the kibbutz (a collective community in Israel that was traditionally based on agriculture), Yaffa trained to work with young children. Instead of sleeping near their parents, children – and even babies – slept in the "children's house" and were looked after by other members of the kibbutz. Yaffa was originally in charge of three six-month olds, a task she found quite difficult. Despite how hard she found the work, she was very committed to the child-rearing philosophy of the kibbutz which limited contact between mother and child. When her daughter was born, however, she drastically changed her mind. She was told that her daughter was a "problem child" because at five months she was not sucking her thumb or taking a bottle. Yaffa finally took her daughter to a doctor and learned that she had cerebral palsy. Yaffa became quite unhappy on the kibbutz and wanted to leave. Finally, after three years, she and Haim left the kibbutz and moved to Jerusalem. Yaffa spends a few minutes discussing the kibbutzim (plural of kibbutz), as well as her and Haim's loyalty to the movement.
The rest of the interview focuses on Yaffa's life in the United States after she and Haim left Israel. Yaffa has been quite involved in the local synagogue, the Jewish Community of Amherst (JCA), since its founding in the 1970s. Yaffa reflects on the impact of living in Amherst, and how if she had lived in New York City she would probably not have felt the need to be involved in the Jewish community. She has been active on a number of committees, including the New Israel Fund.
Yaffa then skips to her trip to the USSR with Haim in 1977. They were chosen to travel to the Soviet Union to meet with refuseniks and help them gain visas to Israel. Yaffa explains that the country was "still very Stalinistic" and that they had to be very careful. She remembers a frightening moment as they were leaving when her and Haim's notebooks were confiscated. Although Haim's was returned, she never got hers back. She and Haim were given a list of one hundred names to contact about an international conference.
Yaffa returns to discussing her work with the JCA in Israel, especially with a community in Rechovot. The first year that the project took place the JCA collected money to send immigrants to an ulpan, an institution for the intensive study of Hebrew. The second year they contacted a school and collected money for computers. The next year they contacted another school and sent them books. Yet another school asked for an after-school program. This has developed into a substantial program, with a teacher working closely with small groups of children who need extra help. These children tend to be underprivileged, either immigrants from Ethiopia or Russia or impoverished native Israelis. The JCA has created a trip to Israel every other year, during which they almost always visit Rechovot.
Yaffa wraps up the interview reflecting on what she finds important about Judaism and what she hopes to pass on to future generations. She believes that a good Jewish education and a basic knowledge of Hebrew are essential. She also emphasizes how important Israel is. In fact, the holidays that she now focuses on are Yom Hashoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day) and those that relate directly to Israel. Yaffa states that if you don't know Yiddish, you cannot understand Jewish history, but if you do not know Hebrew, you cannot understand the Jewish present. In addition to stating her favorite Yiddish phrase – gor nisht helfen, it won't help at all – Yaffa ends the interview by advising future generation to learn, to study, to be active, to read before making decisions, to take life in your own hands, and lastly to care about both humanity and especially Jews.

Great white jeans
By DaniCalifornia
from San Francisco, CA
About Me Bargain Shopper, Classic
I really like the fit/cut of these jeans. I'm 5'8, 145 lbs, and the 27s fit well. They are a little bit long, but it's fine with heels and looks good cuffed with flats. The only thing that isn't perfect is that they are a little see-through so you can see the pockets through the jeans...

About Me Sexy, Trendy
I have worn out to dinner twice. Nice jean to pair with dressier summer tops. However, does not retain shape. Felt a little to baggy after wearing.

A working weekend is in store for employees of an auto supplier based in Southfield. A big group from Denso will head to the banks of the Rouge River on Saturday to help the environment.More than 100 employees will be on the banks of the river as part of the annual Rouge Rescue project."Associates get wet, dirty, muddy. They bring their families," said Melissa Smith.She helped coordinate the effort with the City of Southfield and Six Rivers Regional Land Conservancy.The workers remove log jams, which are trees and branches that fall across the river, to keep the water flowing and prevent erosion. They'll also pull more than 4,000 pounds of weeds, garlic mustard and dame's rocket, which are invasive species."They will prevent native plants from growing, so they start taking over the entire space," Smith said.Denso has been part of the project for the last 17 years. The City of Southfield has actually been doing it for 43 years, even though most Southfield residents are not aware of it."It brings the city, it brings the residents, it brings companies together for a common goal," said Jeff Spence with the City of Southfield."It's always rewarding when people come out of the river or their work zones and they're dirty, tired, but very happy to have done what they did," Smith said.This year, volunteers will also decorate bat, owl and bluebird houses for Denso's property off Telegraph Road, and they'll plant a native garden. They say environmental stewardship is a core component of the Japanese company's culture, and it benefits the entire community.

(Reuters) - Kit Digital Inc's
Former CEO Kaleil Isaza Tuzman said he had sent a letter to Kit Digital's board offering to buy the company at an indicative price range of $1.35 to $1.70 per share. At the mid-point of the offer price, the company is valued at $87.08 million.
This is more than double the company's current market value of about $40.93 million. Kit Digital shares were up 5 percent at 75 cents on the Nasdaq on Wednesday.
In November, Tuzman said he was willing to lead a private equity-backed buyout of the company at $3.75 per share in cash.
"Our offer is subject to due diligence, your release of certain parties from standstill agreements, and a mutually acceptable definitive agreement," Tuzman wrote in a letter to the company's board.
Kit Digital, which provides services to some of the biggest technology, entertainment and media companies, including Google Inc
Tuzman, who left Kit Digital earlier this year in a major management shakeup, currently has an about 4 percent stake in the company, according to Thomson Reuters data.

Safely managing blood lipid levels can be a challenge for people as they get older. Yet an increasing number of doctors recognize the critical need to protect the arterial wall against low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation and inflammatory insults.
For those who want to maintain healthful levels of lipids in the blood, Advanced Lipid Control contains two powerful ingredients that help protect key aspects of cardiovascular function: black tea theaflavins and Indian gooseberry.
A staple beverage in many cultures for millennia, black tea contains theaflavins, beneficial flavonoids found naturally in its dried leaves. Scientists have discovered that these theaflavins provide multiple benefits for arterial health. As well as supporting healthy cholesterol levels already within normal range1, theaflavins have been shown in human studies to protect against LDL oxidation1 and favorably affect endothelial function2, thus helping to maintain a healthy circulation.
Scientists have also found that black tea flavonoids possess strong antioxidant properties, which can help mitigate oxidative damage to cells and tissues from free radicals.3 In addition, theaflavins have been found to be helpful in regulating key inflammatory mediators in the body, thus helping to preserve endothelial integrity.4,5
Advanced Lipid Control now contains Capros® amla, an extract of Indian gooseberry. This standardized extract contains tannins that have been shown to improve endothelial function and safely help maintain healthy levels of all three key blood lipids — LDL, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and triglycerides — as well as C-reactive protein.6
This special formula supports healthy cholesterol levels already within normal range and safeguards vascular and heart health while providing excellent antioxidant protection.
Serving Size 2 vegetarian capsules
Servings Per Container 30
Capros® amla water extract (fruit) [std to 60% low molecular weight hydolyzable tannins (300 mg)]
500 mg
Black Tea extract (leaf) [std to 25% theaflavins (87.5 mg)]
350 mg
Other ingredients: vegetable cellulose (capsule), stearic acid, vegetable stearate, silica.
Capros® is a registered trademark of Natreon, Inc..
This product contains a black tea extract which is licensed from Applied Food Sciences, Inc. and is protected by U.S. patent Nos. 6,811,799 and 6,602,527.

Lowers Fasting Glucose

About Me Health Conscious
See all my reviews
Best Uses
Comments about Life Extension Advanced Lipid Control, 60 vegetarian capsules:
I got this product initially to lower lipid levels. Unfortunately, it did not work for me, and my doctor has put me back on Pravastatin. But I have found that 2 capsules of this product, taken after my evening meal, will help to lower my fasting glucose. So I recommend this product for blood glucose issues. As to lipid levels, only getting tested will determine the effectiveness of this product for you.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Gintama Cosplay Accessories
What Did Our Customers Say?
Perfection at it's finest. The wig is so amazing, I don't know where to start. I love the way it feels, how matte it is and not shiny. The purple color is so absolutely spot on, I couldn't believe it. The little swirls on the side are perfect as well, it fits nicely and does come with a wig cap. I also love the bangs, nice and thick. I can't wait to wear it.
Exceptional. I am super pleased with the quality, and the overall customer support. I had my cosplay custom made and I bought the wig with the costume bundle, which is super nifty as well. Nothing against the cosplay at all but just to let anyone else know exactly what they are receiving. Everything is as pictured, but mine didn't have the little black dots on the white diamond part which is easily fixable, be sure to buy a separate pair of thigh highs because the ones it comes with are cute but very thin and see through. Again not a problem. The petticoat is the only thing I will really have to replace, but I was going to do that regardless for a more fuller look. The hat is very nice, with a strap to hold it down. But in the picture it has fabric covered buttons and the fabric over laps like the original characters', but when I received it was a solid white piece around the hat and the buttons were the pearl looking plastic buttons. Again, perfectly fine. Just stating what you really get. The last thing is the breast area, I am a 34D with an itty bitty waist, so I can understand how hard it is to cover the whole breast. It has some side boob action, but seeing as I can sew and I do make costumes, easy fix and not a problem. Now on to the parts I absolutely love. The Fabric! It's very nice, won't make you sweat and doesn't attract lint too much. I had asked for the sleeves to be super long because I am a fan of long sleeves, and Blair originally has super long sleeves, and they are perfect. The necklace is super cute as well, a nice paint job and isn't shitty or thrown together sloppy. I had anticipated that the sleeves would be constantly slipping down, and bought some It Stays, but to my surprise, it stays up very well. It has this strip of elastic inside that stays snugly to your arm. And the dress is very nice over all, I love the way it fits and couldn't be happier. (My wig review will be on the wig page.)

As a fan, it doesn't get much worse than the realization that your season is over…before the halfway point. When you're talking about the investment in your NFL rooting interest, it's at least minimal torture. It may be a lengthy sentence in terms of time elapsed, but you've only got 16 game-day torments. Hockey, basketball, especially baseball…man, that's a long season of agony.
And so the debate: if a guy, in the midst of a brutal MLB season (I'm lookin' at you Milwaukee Brewers), decides to walk away for a while, find something else to do with his time, does it make him fair weather?
The answer is a resounding NO!
Fair weather fandom is a psychological existence. It is a "couldn't care less" mentality that manifests itself in bandwagon jumping, not when the team is good, but when the party is good. And of course, the party is always hoppin' when the team is successful. The fair weather fan treats the game as the optional entertainment, and the tailgate party as the reason behind the ticket purchase. The fair weather fan decides to attend your game-day gathering based upon the extracurriculars: who is attending and what food/beverage will be served. Just watch the game? Ehh. You've got wings and beer? I'm there!
As a fan, it doesn't get much worse than the realization that your season is over…before the halfway point. But it can be worse. Fans can start turning on one another. If a dude needs to walk away from his team for a little bit to regroup, let him be. The season is a rollercoaster. Sometimes it's a both-hands-up, blast of a ride. Sometimes the ride makes you want to puke. If that guy needs to puke, let him puke, and if he needs to let his stomach settle for a bit before jumpin' back on the ride, that's not fair weather…that's just fair.

A man pretending to be a police officer forced his way into an apartment, brutally assaulted the female victim and attempted to sexually assault her, Clinton Twp. police say. The incident happened Sunday night.The incident began when the 33-year-old victim noticed a strange person lurking outside her apartment at the Green Valley complex. She called Clinton Twp. police. A soon time later she heard a knock on her door, followed by the voice of a man identifying himself as a Clinton Twp. police officer. She opened the door, which was then forced all the way open by no police officer, but instead, the 39-year-old suspect . He proceeded to brutally assault the victim, so much so her eye socket was broken, police say. Authorities believe the victim was not sexually assaulted but have reason to believe the incident is an attempted sexual assault.A neighbor heard noise coming from the victim's apartment and called 911. Police arrived while the suspect was still inside the apartment hiding behind a couch. Police then chased the suspect who fled the location on food. Officers apprehended him at the Indian Run subdivision east of the initial apartment complex. The suspect is in custody awaiting arraignment. Click the video player above to hear from a neighbor at the Green Valley apartment complex.

For the last 3 years I have brined my Thanksgiving turkey, and I don't think I'll ever prepare a turkey any other way! Brining is soaking your bird in a salty mixture that leaves your turkey very juicy, moist, tender and full of flavor! And it's really easy. Make sure that you use a fresh, not frozen and NOT self-basted turkey. The self-basted ones have a salty stock that's injected in them that would make your brined turkey WAY too salty. A fresh, natural turkey works best. You can use brining bags, but those oven roasting bags for turkeys work really well, just double them up to it won't tear from the weight.
Here's what you need:
3 cups apple cider
2 gallons cold water
1 bunch of rosemary (strip the leaves off the sprigs)
1 bunch of fresh sage (also strip the leaves from the sprigs)
5 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cups kosher salt
2 cups brown sugar
4 T. peppercorns
6 whole bay leaves
the peel from 3 large oranges. (cut bottom off or orange, and cut the peelings off)
This will make enough brine for a 20 lb. turkey. Combine all ingredients in a large pot. Stir until the sugar and salt dissolve. Bring to a boil, then turn off heat and cover. You are going to LOVE the aroma--it smells like the holidays!! Remove from stove and let it cool completely. I like to set it outside on the patio so it will cool faster, just make sure it cools completely. Now, here comes the tricky part, you might need help. Place uncooked, fresh, clean turkey on it's bottom in the oven bag, and pour the cooled mixture over the turkey, then twist the bag up and secure with a twist tie. You can place it in a large cooler or a large pot. The cooler works very well, because it frees up space in your refrigerator, just cover with some ice. Let the turkey sit in the brine for 15-24 hours. Flipping the turkey halfway through so it will brine evenly. I like to keep the cooler in the garage or out on the patio if it's cool where you are!
When you are ready to cook the turkey, remove from the brine and place in a sink or pot of clean, cold water. Let it sit for about 15 minutes, to remove the salt. Remove the bird from the water and pat dry with a paper towel and cook the way you normally do.

In a previous column, I discussed the wisdom of keeping your camera with you to capture those unexpected scenes and moments. You'll want your camera handy for those times when great photos suddenly present themselves. I've caught some sensational photos in this way.
However, a good majority of my photo shoots are planned. I know where I'm going, the subject I'm shooting, and a rough idea of the image that I hope to capture before I step out the door.
I've found a method of planning that works very well for me. I simply grab my camera and head outdoors without any idea of where I'm going. I'm less interested in shooting photos than I am in finding subjects and scenes to photograph in the future. I call them 'photo scouting trips' and they have been invaluable.
I've found a number of great subjects and locations using this method. I jot my ideas down in a small notebook, along with notes on the best time of day to shoot the subject. When I'm in the mood to take photographs, I consult the notebook and choose an appropriate subject based on sky conditions and lighting.
The photo below, Pure Dakota, is the result of a planned shoot. You'll find that the results are well worth the time it takes to plan your photographs.

Jon Peterson wrote:As you'd guess, Jenise, Liz and I (and our kids) are pushing for Bryan to go all the way AND to sweep the voting for that extra cash to their charity Share Our Strength - No Kid Hungry if I recall correctly. That last show was a nail biter, for sure. I would have been shocked if he's been sent home but it could happen. Why did he pick beets? Who knows! (He does work magic with beets in his restaurants!)
I also don't know what to say about Chef de Cuisine Graeme Ritchie; as good as he is, he hasn't done Bryan any real favors. (His wife, Johna, is pregnant BTW.) He basically runs Volt now that Bryan is splitting his time between Volt and Range with the occasional cameo at Family Meal. He also no longer has the spiked Mohawk hair.
I liked Lynn Crawford, too; sorry she's gone. I am very slowly warming up to David Burke and may not get there before the show is over. I'm sorry but I can't help but think of the Three Musketeers when I see Neal Fraser. Yoon can go anythie as far as I'm concerned but I'd love to eat at his restaurant.
Are you watching the Sous Chef mini episodes online, Jenise?
Carrie L. wrote:I've been watching and enjoying. I like Bryan too but have to say that his fake laugh is driving me crazy. It kinda sounds like a low-key machine gun. Listen for it. He is truly a culinary genius though, so I can overlook an annoying personality trait.
Agree with Jenise about Lynn. I also thought her platings were far more "pedestrian" than any of the other chefs. Was not surprised to see her go, since it seemed her sous was keeping her afloat anyway.
Was incredibly sad to see Jenn Louis go so soon, as she is a friend's daughter. Recently had him over for dinner in the desert and was a bit intimidated cooking for him! His wife, who passed away last year was also an amazing cook (and person).
I actually like Neal...both his personality and his cooking style.
May stop watching altogether if David gets eliminated. He is so freaking fun to watch and listen to. My kinda guy. He needs to step it up a bit though.
Once again, I'm finding that they are not doing enough with Hugh. It seems they are "scripting" him, so the unexpected witty moments we long for aren't coming through at all. C'mon BRAVO, give him so leeway!
Jenise wrote:Re Bryan, I get the trait you speak of but it doesn't come across as 'fake' to me. More kind of a self-conscious, and a complete absence of gregariousness. He comes across as a truly good and humble man. Jon of course knows him and can give him a better read on him. Jon?
Jon Peterson wrote:
That's his laugh and it isn't fake. My kids make fun of it whenever they're together. Bryan is as unpretentious as they come and as down-to-earth as they get so I think self-conscious is a good description of his laugh. He laughs like that in front of groups and he laughs like that if it's just the two of you and he's showing you something funny on his phone.
Jenise wrote:Jon, are you still somm-ing at the restaurant?
Jenise wrote:Oh no! You forgot a SPOILER ALERT!
Carrie L. wrote:How about Bryan's deconstructed guacamole? They seemed to love that also!
Carrie L. wrote:I watched it too. I'm now wowed by Douglas as well. David is losing a little ground for being so scattered and having too many flavors. Wish we could all taste this stuff! How about Bryan's deconstructed guacamole? They seemed to love that also!
Jon Peterson wrote:Carrie L. wrote:How about Bryan's deconstructed guacamole? They seemed to love that also!
Bryan and Sous Chef Ritchie (who I am a little disappointed in) are right where they want to to be, I think, right in the middle of the pack. I guess I think of it like a horse race: With most races I've seen, rarely has the winner been the leader from the gate. When the final results are tabulated, aren't all of a chef's dishes taken into consideration? Bryan has certainly had some wonderful ones. I hope he pulls ahead at just the right time to take the whole thing.
Jon Peterson wrote:I saw Bryan and Graeme today and, even though I would never ask about TCM, they are so expectant that someone will, they hardly talk at all. They must have taken a blood oath not to reveal anything, which I sure understand.
Jenise wrote:I'm sure you saw this week's episode? Once again Bryan's genius is the most obvious, but he doesn't win because a guest judge is too conventional in their thinking. Dang, I feel for him!
