A few months ago Bob and I had a quick lunch at a Sonic Burger and ordered onion rings. Worst. Onion Rings. Ever. They had the creepiest sweet vanilla flavor to them, but it wasn't quite vanilla and sugar. It was something stranger, almost a marshmallow taste.
Never thought about it again until we had lunch in a Seattle Chinese restaurant the other day and ordered salt and pepper fried pork chops. I needed comfort food and this was a dish that would do it. Only, the meat was very odd. Instead of being dry and naked but for the salt and peppper, the pork had been dipped in a batter first. And guess what? It had that same identical creepy sweet-odd vanilla flavor that the Sonic onion rings have.
Anybody know what this is? Is it some kind of commercial batter they buy at Cash 'n Carry (same as Smart & Final)?

Comments On Aug 14, 2013:I ordered several Tusk parts for a bike I recently acquired. They all look and work fine except for this one. As mentioned on a previous review, the bolts that hold it to the bars are not bolts at all but screws (and my bolts did not fit as a replacement). The perch also did not completely wrap around the bars and left an 1/8" gap between the two pieces, and that is without the protective plastic that goes under the OEM one. The new clutch lever, which matched up nicely to the OEM perch, left a 1/8" gap between it and this piece. Since it fit the OEM one, that must mean the perch, not the lever, is what is different. Once it goes, I'll be looking for a different one.

Scientists Test Meth Addiction 'Cure'
(NEWSER) – Scientists are testing a drug that may 'cure' meth addiction, and early results are good. Ibudilast is used in Japan and Korea to treat asthma sufferers and stroke victims, but US scientists believe it may also block methamphetamine cravings in the brain, reports theHuffington Post.
"Very preliminary results would indicate that Ibudilast may dampen craving and improve cognitive functioning," says one UCLA researcher. If further tests by the FDA prove successful, the drug could be approved by 2018.

A Better Type of Iron
By Julia Rosien
According to an article in the June issue of the journal Diabetes Care, too much heme iron—the kind found in meat—may cause long-term cell damage and contribute to the development of diabetes. Harvard researchers studied 85,000 women 34 to 59 years old for 20 years and discovered that those who consumed more meat had a higher incidence of type-2 diabetes. Women who ate the most meat had a 28 percent higher risk compared to those who ate the least, even with factors like body weight, exercise, and overall diet considered. What's interesting is that iron from plant sources doesn't seem to affect the body in the same way. Red meat has long been associated with an increased risk of certain cancers, especially colon, which makes incorporating meatless options into your diet a healthy shift.
If signing off meat wholesale isn't for you, consider part-time vegetarianism and become an expert at ferreting out healthy proteins. "Being a vegetarian has nothing to do with eating vegetables—we should all be eating vegetables—but it has everything to do with where you get your protein," says Nikki Goldbeck, author of American Wholefoods Cuisine (Ceres Press, 2006). Meatless options like soy burgers, bean soup, and veggie lasagna can be alternated with eggs, fish, or poultry. According to the American Institute for Cancer Research, fish and poultry contain less heme iron than red meat. Limiting the amount of meat in your diet in favor of vegetarian fare and carefully choosing the source of your protein can reduce your risk for diabetes, heart disease, and cancer.

Our Faculty and Staff
Our Philosophy
Our innovative educators bring passion and creativity to their teaching and aren't afraid to do things differently. Most of our students come from schools that were not structured to enable them to succeed. We believe that with the right mix of challenge and support, young people who have left school can get back on the path to college, and at CUNY Prep, we make sure they do.
All Categories
Elvin Aviles
Humanities Teacher
Elvin Aviles joined the CUNY Prep as a Humanities Teacher in the Fall of 2011. He has spent much of his career working with underserved youth in various capacities, but Aviles says CUNY Prep's program is unique.
"The philosophy of this school really drew me in," says Aviles. "Every student has their own story on how or why they left school, but here they are respected as individuals and truly get a second chance."
Aviles was born in the Bronx, New York and attended New York City Public Schools through high school. He attended Baruch College in Manhattan where he earned a degree in History. After college, he began a career in education in the Jersey City public school district where he taught for nearly five years.
Currently, Aviles is working toward a graduate degree at The New Jersey City University in the Master of Arts Degree in Educational Technology program. He believes in relevant and meaningful infusion of technology into instruction as a means to motivate and foster learning in 21st century students.
Frantz Barbier
Mathematics Teacher
Frantz Barbier, a math teacher at CUNY Prep since 2004, prides himself on helping math-phobic students over their greatest hurdles.
"The best part of my job is the sense of satisfaction I get each and every day knowing that I have helped my students master a specific skill or finally understand a content area that defeated them before," he says. "It's a great feeling to watch them light up when they get their tests back."
Barbier was born and raised in the northeast Bronx, where he lives with his wife and young daughter. He holds a bachelor of arts in English language arts and elementary education from Hunter College.
"Teaching isn't just a job for me; it's my life's work," he says. "I am driven by my students' ambition and determination to achieve the goals that they have set for themselves."
He is also in charge of special events.
Kris D. Foreman
Coordinator of Recruitment and Admissions
Kris Foreman is typically the first contact for prospective students at CUNY Prep. As the coordinator of recruitment and admissions, he screens students to make sure they are a good fit for the school.
"If they don't have college as a goal, than this is not the right place for them," he says.
Foreman, who grew up in the Fordham section of the Bronx, down the road from CUNY Prep, says he feels personally responsible to help students reach their educational potential.
"I believe my job is to create opportunities for students that enable them to value knowledge, respect themselves and push them to strive for higher education," he says.
Foreman joined CUNY Prep in 2006. He holds a master's degree in social science in educational counseling and a bachelor's degree in sociology from Binghamton University. His hobbies include basketball, baseball, paintball, golf and collecting watches.
Aileen Giustra
Fiscal Administrator and Budget Analyst
Aileen Giustra works largely behind the scenes at CUNY Prep but has perhaps one of the more important roles. As the school's fiscal administrator, she makes sure that staff members get paid and that classrooms are stocked with supplies.
"I really enjoy all the relationships that I've formed, not only with CUNY Prep staff, but also with CUNY's central office and even our vendors," she says. "I'm very grateful for their support and hard work."
Giustra joined CUNY Prep in 2006, but she's worked in the CUNY system since 1996. She has a varied and diverse career history that has covered everything from maintaining databases to Spanish translation services.
Giustra enjoys playing with her dog and birds and tending to her plants. She's also a huge fan of Salsa music and loves going to concerts.
Travis Grantham
College Access Counselor
Travis Grantham does a little bit of everything at CUNY Prep. As a college access counselor, he helps students complete college and financial aid applications. But he's also available to help students with their day-to-day problems.
"I really enjoy getting to know our students on a one-to-one basis," he says. "They look up to you as someone who can help guide them toward college."
Grantham, who holds a bachelor of arts degree in English from SUNY Albany and is working on his master's in counselor education, also helps manage school and student data at CUNY Prep.
Another of his favorite part of his job is running the school store. "It gives me a chance to interact with a lot of our students during the lunch break and check in and see how they are progressing," he says. "Watching these same students walk across the stage during graduation and seeing how far they've come—it's a great feeling."
Tracy Hill
Lead Science Teacher
Tracy Hill, lead science teacher, joined the CUNY Prep faculty in 2006. She teaches the innovative "Cooking and Chemistry" course in which students learn science concepts through analyzing and preparing food. She also teaches fashion elective classes that give students the chance to design their own clothing.
"The best part of my job is recreating myself and seeing my students re-create themselves," she says.
Hill says teaching gives her and her students' continuous opportunities to learn.
"Education can help bring our community together because our weaknesses will be strengthened, and our strengths will be challenged," she says.
Hill started her career as a senior laboratory scientist for a global corporation, working on projects for pharmaceutical companies, oil refineries and even NASA. But she switched to teaching because she wanted a profession where she could see the direct results of helping people. She taught science at Thomas Jefferson High School in Brooklyn for six years before coming to CUNY Prep.
Andre Larmond
Information Technology Assistant
CUNY Prep relies heavily on technology in the classroom, and it is Andre Larmond's job to keep our growing inventory of high-tech tools in top working order.
Larmond, who first joined CUNY Prep in 2004, is responsible for everything from software updates on the computers to assisting in keeping the network running smoothly.
"I really enjoy supporting the staff here as they help our students build a better future for themselves," he says.
Larmond has a degree in Digital Media Arts from TCI College. He is enrolled at New York City College of Technology, pursuing a degree in computer engineering technology. He's a parent to a very busy little girl and a new baby boy; in his spare time, he enjoys reading, going to the gym and taking in a movie or comedy show.
David Lewis
Public Safety Officer
Public Safety officer David Lewis, who joined the staff in 2007, says he enjoys his work at CUNY Prep because the atmosphere is less like a school and more like a family.
"This is a place where everyone knows you by name, students and staff alike," says Lewis. "It's an easy place to feel supported and accepted – and I think for many of our students, that's a rare experience."
Lewis understands the students' goals of succeeding in college. He is also currently in school, studying technology at the Borough of Manhattan Community College.
"I consider myself to be one of those Jack of All Trades, Master of None types," he jokes. "I've always loved learning about new things and think it's something I'll continue my whole life."
When he is not on the Internet researching a new interest, Lewis is a die-hard sports fan - basketball, baseball and football. He also enjoys using his free time to work out.
Mario Lopez
Public Safety Officer
Lieutenant Mario Lopez is a commanding presence at CUNY Prep – both in his physical size and strength and also in his daily interactions with students.
"It's really important to sweat the small stuff," says Lopez, Director of Public Safety at CUNY Prep. "We set very high standards in terms of both dress and conduct and my part of my job is holding our young people to these standards.
Lopez joined CUNY Prep in 2006, but has more than 14 years of public safety experience on CUNY Campuses. But he feels a particular connection to the students here.
"I love seeing success stories at CUNY Prep," he says. "Growing up in the same area and under the same conditions motivates me to try my best to help students work toward a successful future.
Outside of CUNY Prep, Lopez travels extensively and enjoys sports, technology and sharing an interest in the martial arts with his sons.
Antoinette Lowe
Public Safety Officer
Antoinette Lowe joined the Public Safety team at CUNY Prep in spring 2009, and says she cannot get enough of the school's family-oriented atmosphere.
"There is always someone in CUNY Prep willing to help and listen no matter what the problem might be," says Lowe. "The teachers are great. They know when to have fun, but they also known when it is time to set fun aside and focus."
Public safety officer Lowe was born in Kinston, Jamaica but was raised in Brooklyn, New York. She graduated from Brooklyn College in 2007 with a degree in political science and sociology.
"The whole concept of CUNY Prep is wonderful⎯helping kids who have dropped out of school get their life back on track and giving them the opportunity to compete in the world," she says.
Outside of work, Officer Lowe enjoys being part of her extended family and taking care of her two kids. She also enjoys cooking and watching Dr. Phil.
Jamal Mantin
Assistant Director of CUNY Prep at Night
Jamal Mantin supervises our College Success office at Hostos Community College, which helps support CUNY Prep graduates attending classes there.
"For our students, having someone on site to help them while they are making the transition to college can make all the difference in their level of success," he says.
Mantin, who was born and raised on Manhattan's Lower East Side, holds a bachelor of arts in black studies from SUNY New Paltz and a master's degree in sociology. He joined the CUNY Prep faculty in 2006 to launch CUNY Prep at Night, a part-time program for adults that is on hiatus.
"The best part of my job is working with motivated learners who want to ascend academically as well as professionally," he says.
Mantin is an avid fan of the arts as well as an NBA/college basketball fanatic. His hobbies include reading and traveling.
Jenna Martinez
Humanities Teacher
Jenna Martinez joined CUNY Prep as a humanities teacher in the fall of 2012. She has worked in grassroots and non-profit educational programs, teaching literacy and adult education.
"My goal is create a class of critical thinkers," says Martinez. "Creating an environment where students feel safe to voice their ideas is my priority. I want students to leave my class as informed citizens. That is so powerful."
Martinez was born in San Antonio, Texas but has called New York City home since 2010. She loves traveling and has spent time living abroad in Guatemala, Mexico and Spain. She holds a bachelor's degree in photojournalism from the University of Texas at Austin and a master's degree in international relations from Alliant International University.
Outside of teaching she likes to read, drink coffee, explore Brooklyn, and love on her dog, Pocket. She is a certified political junkie.
Anthony McFadden
Anthony McFadden, or "Mr. Mac" as he's known to students, hands out breakfast, lunch and a heaping dollop of positive energy each day at CUNY Prep. McFadden, who joined the staff in the Fall of 2008, also serves as a tutor and mentor to students. He enjoys his job because he can really relate to the students.
"I also left high school and later earned my GED," says McFadden, who just this year returned to school as a Hostos Community College student. He plans to pursue a degree in education and wants to become a teacher or counselor.
McFadden is very motivated by the college prep atmosphere at CUNY Prep.
"I had been out of school for a long time and had my doubts, but I'm starting to catch up," says McFadden. He has some advice for students who are on the same path. "We must not let ourselves be discouraged by our assumptions," he says.
When he's not working or studying, McFadden loves sports, especially basketball. He's also trying to make reading a daily habit.
Glenmore Reynolds
Science Teacher
Glenmore Reynolds joined the CUNY Prep faculty in 2005. He's been living in the United States for 20 years, but was born and raised in Jamaica, where he saw the positive effects of education firsthand.
"I saw many people lift themselves and their families out of poverty through education, so I know it can be done," he says.
Before coming to CUNY Prep, Reynolds worked in the corporate world, the health industry and was a science teacher at a boys boarding school in Jamaica. He earned his bachelor's degree in the adult degree program at Lehman College.
"I stand as a living witness that a person from humble beginnings need not succumb to colorless dreams and dwarfed goals," he says.
Reynolds says the best part of his job is watching the hearts and minds of his students change as they transform themselves at CUNY Prep.
Reynolds enjoys reading, traveling, cricket and soccer.
Jenny Ristenbatt
Principal and Director
Jenny Ristenbatt was appointed director and principal of CUNY Prep in fall 2010. Before that, she spent three years as associate director, working alongside Derrick Griffith, the school's founding principal.
"I am very proud and honored to lead CUNY Prep," she says.
She believes in the power of CUNY Prep's educational model, which is based on the core concepts of resilience, reflection and success.
"We don't judge our students on whatever led them to leave school, but we ask them to reflect on their patterns and behaviors as they start a new pathway with us," she says. "We show them how to bounce back from their past struggles and develop a new way of thinking that is key to their becoming successful college students in the future."
Ristenbatt began her work at CUNY Prep as a forensic science teacher in 2004. She earned her bachelor of science degree in forensic science then got a master's degree in supervision and administration. During her career, Ristenbatt also has been a New York City public middle school science teacher and adjunct instructor for The City University of New York.
Ann Rivera
Administrative Assistant
Ann Marie Rivera joined the CUNY Prep staff in 2010. In her role as administrative assistant, she supports the College Access department, doing everything from student data entry to fielding phone calls.
"I am thankful for the opportunity to work at CUNY Prep." says Rivera. "I love the unity, passion and dedication that everyone has here, no matter what position they hold."
Rivera is a life-long Bronx resident. She studied Secretarial Science and Business Administration at Borough of Manhattan Community College.
"CUNY Prep has a great program and gives opportunities to students that otherwise, may have not known were available to them," says Rivera. "They give students hope and show them that no matter what their circumstances, they can achieve their goals and persevere."
Rivera enjoys spending her free time with her family and her dogs. Her hobbies include listening to music, reading and cooking.
Cindy Spector
Assistant Director of College Success
Cindy Spector, who joined CUNY Prep as a humanities teacher in 2004, was appointed director of operations in October 2010. In her current role, Spector oversees everything that keeps the school up and running, from the physical building to the day-to-day happenings inside.
"After many years of working in various capacities at CUNY Prep, this job allows me to combine all of my experience to improve things at a systemic level," she says.
Born and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, she holds a bachelor's degree in history and education from Bradley University and a master's in human resources from Georgia State.
Throughout her career, Spector has worked with students in a variety of settings, including community centers and juvenile prisons.
Before assuming her current role at CUNY Prep, she was the college faculty liaison helping students navigate the transition to college.
"I believe that students need a supportive, safe environment in order to thrive," she says. "As part of that, we really need to encourage them to grow socially and emotionally as well as academically."
Spector enjoys cooking, music, travel and spending time with her young son, Levi.
Shannon Taggart
No matter what's going on at CUNY Prep, Shannon Taggart is likely to be somewhere in the background capturing it on video. She joined the CUNY Prep staff in 2007 as the resident documentarian. She tells the stories of the schools and our students.
"We use video here for everything from staff development to building school culture and also simply helping our students understand that they are a part of something very special at CUNY Prep," she says.
Taggart is a professional filmmaker and says her career has allowed her to see lots of interesting places and meet many talented people, including the students and staff at CUNY Prep. She's been a TV news reporter and producer, worked in corporate public relations and done a variety of film projects in different parts of the world, especially Central and South America. Taggart is a former elementary school teacher and has taught writing and filmmaking at CUNY Prep.
"I really enjoy working with our students," she says. "They are some of the brightest and most creative young people around, and I love helping them tell their stories."
Tamika Wilson
Assistant to the Principal
Tamika Wilson is a big part of the school's central nervous system, handling everything from student Metrocards to scheduling and event planning, to fielding phone calls. Like most staff at CUNY Prep, she wears a lot of hats in her role as Assistant to the Principal.
"I really like the fact that every day is a little different," says Wilson. "I especially enjoy interacting with the students and watching them grow during their time here."

"I love German gingerbread and marzipan from childhood, and the taste has never changed. My father's employer's wife was German, and through her I learned to love German cuisine from braunsweiger to tangy sauerkraut, and I still love it 40 years later. I want to thank The Ortons for bringing my love for these foods to me again through their catalog. As long as your catalog offers my favorites, I'll continue to order. Thank You." - Sylvia Domingue, Beaumont, TX

I'm not that keen on heights. And I don't paint monuments. Unless you call painting a macaron a Paris monument. I do.
Consequently everywhere I turned in Paris I was confronted with an Eiffel Tower in one form or another. Was the Tour Eiffel stalking me? Then it became a misson to see how many I could find... This tower is definitively the iconic symbol of Paris.
If you walk into Bloomingdales, you will not see New York City's symbolic Big Apple everywhere. Not the case with Paris' Galerie Lafayette...

8 Reasons It's Better to Be a Dog Now than 25 Years Ago
By the Numbers

Yeah... it seems like 25 years ago more dogs were properly trained since people weren't yet brainwashed to believe that it's abusive to correct a dog. Positive reinforcement is great when teaching a dog, but how do you proof a dog without using proper corrections? Do you really expect a dog with high prey drive to pass up a squirrel for a treat and a scratch behind the ear? Ridiculous. Food bribing, as is the norm for "training" today, does nothing to show dogs that there are consequences when they don't obey. Food bribing, doesn't work when the dog gets a higher reward from chasing an animal right into the middle of a street. A dog must be corrected if it's to learn proper obedience. Whether that requires a leash pop or even an electrical shock depends on the individual dog and the situation.
I also find Haltis and Gentle Leaders to be a waste of time. I own dogs not horses. Both products do nothing to address the issue as to why a dog pulls. Neither properly trains a dog as how to walk properly on a leash. Restraining a dog is not training him. I'd rather using a prong for a few days and revert back to a flat buckle collar for walks, because the dog has learned what is appropriate behavior. Many dog owners also aren't aware that there are many more dangers of using a Gentle Leader and a Halti than there are using a properly fitted prong collar: eye injuries, nerve and spinal injuries, irritated/bleeding skin, etc.

Hear! Hear! I so agree with you! Dogs are still animals; without being able to reason with them, it is important we make clear what we want. Properly applied corrections are much more humane than the constant nagging of a Gentle Leader or bribing with food. Dogs are smart - they know a bribe or easy way out when they see it. I've trained my terriers with E-collars and both are now free to run because when I call them they return. If they don't, a tone or quick jolt protects them from harm from vehicles and other dogs. Both will cheerfully heel off leash in very distracting situations. They are not fearful - they know and understand the parameters - and dogs LIKE that. It is how they live in their packs. Sorry.... I could go forever on this!

Prong collars do nothing to address the reason dogs pull either. Dogs pull because humans go with them when they do it. Simple as that. So, any device that you use is merely a substitute for proper training, which NEVER has to rely on pain. I think that it's disingenuous to suggest that a Halti isn't benign, and not be willing to accept that a shock isn't benign either. And, in the hands of someone who is of a "correction" mind set, it's a whole lot more dangerous than either a halter or a prong. You're worried about irritated skin??? Try putting a shock collar on a dog and having it malfunction!

Test a prong collar on your arm sometime. I'm getting the impression from your comment that you're one of the people who simply looks at them and deems them scary, mean-looking things that therefore must be all bad.
Dogs need corrections sometimes, and other times can go on reward-only training. It depends on the dog, its level of sensitivity, its drives. It depends on the trainer. The same exact methods will not work on all dogs. Therefore perhaps not all dogs will need corrections--but when training dogs for competition obedience, -intelligent- corrections are necessary for the majority of dogs.
Prong collars, however strange they may look, are not abusive when properly used. They give a quick correction that is controlled by the handler, and then it's over. They don't cut off the dog from breathing, they don't--especially in a dog with a thick coat--cause an injury unless they are improperly used.
The methods and equipment you use will depend upon your dog, your beliefs, and what you want out of your training. To condemn a tool as abusive is pointless, as a tool depends upon the hands in which it is used.
Otherwise--this is an upbeat article. I agree with most of it, although I do think that on the other hand some things have fallen behind from where they were even 12 years ago when I started working with dogs. For the most part, though, things have definitely moved forward, and this is a cool article. It's unfortunate that the shift in mindset that lays behind so much of this is far from universal in many parts of the world and even just the US.

Good god no kidding!! I cannot believe them prong collars are still on the market!!! Along with choker chains, shock collars, etc. What is wrong with people? Besides bad training and being uneducated regarding training a dog. Everyone should have to take a course with Patricia McConnell's principles and theories regarding training a dog and have to actually PASS it before they own a dog in my eyes. It's really no wonder why dogs don't bite us more often. It's no wonder why the shelters are always clogged up!

If people really used prong collars for a few days and then reverted back to a flat collar maybe they wouldn't be so offensive. I have trained dogs using punitive methods (prong collars, choke chains, spray bottles) and using positive methods more recently. Positive is not permissive and teaches the dog what you want it to do instead of punishing it for not doing as told. I have found the positive methods to be much more effective and long lasting.

I totally agree. I train at a place that uses prong collars, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I do not bribe my dog to do something. When he does it he gets a treat and a ton of praise. I did an attention and focus class today. My dog got a correction when he did the wrong thing, and a treat and ton of praise for paying attention. He gets a reward for doing it right and a correction for doing it wrong. Is that abuse? Then I guess so be it...but he will never leave me for a squirrel, another dog, a treat, or something he deems more important. Because I corrected him for the wrong thing, he will NEVER be hit by a car because he just had to run a few more steps. Because I AM the most important thing in his world. Know where I am, and listen when I tell you to do something. He is the happiest dog, and he loves to work. Each time I correct him he wants to work harder, and push harder. I do not believe in begging my dog to do something, sticking a treat in his face to get his attention, or ignoring him when he jumps on a 3 year old. I will give you a command once, and expect it to happen. If you jump, you will be corrected.
BUT the energy I give when I give a correction, is nothing to match that of the energy he gets when I give praise. I guarantee I give more treats, better treats, and more praise than any clicker trainer out there.
Just had to leave my 2 cents.

"I guarantee I give more treats, better treats, and more praise than any clicker trainer out there."
Issuing treats AND using corrections undermines the corrections and poisons the rewards. This isn't something someone made up one day, this is from research conducted worldwide by ethologists, behaviorists, and psychologists.
These people make up clicker trainers. People with Masters degrees and PhD's. Even if a SKILLED clicker trainer doesn't have these qualifications, they are being mentored or taught by someone who does. Guaranteed.

Personally, I love love love my prong. And so does my dog. When he sees it he wiggles. I train using tons of treats, and a well timed correction when necessary. When I teach him to do something, he gets a correction for doing it incorrectly, and treats and tons of praise when he does it right. I have tried several different training methods, from clicker training to choke collars. This is the only thing I have found to work for this particular dog. I have 4 dogs. 2 mini dachshunds that need no collar or leash, never have. They respond excellent to clicker training, and a firm no for doing something wrong. A basset/beagle, and a previously aggressive American bulldog mix. These two are at different stages in their training, but both were trained with a prong and pounds of cheese, hot dogs, and summer sausage. The Basset mix is CGC certified, and will walk off leash in any distraction, because I am a better reward than anything else. The Bulldog mix we have only had for about 2 months. She will sit, down come, look when I say her name, and does not pull on a leash. She is working on her off leash abilities, and has been doing excellent. Before this training she had been taken to a clicker trainer that said she needed to be euthanized. I was her foster and she was adopted 3 times and returned because of aggression. The last time she came back they almost euthanized her, but I said we would keep her. In 2 months she has come a LONG way, and couldn't have done that without good consequences and bad consequences for her actions. The dog determines the correction, tools used, level of praise...etc. I would not necessarily use the same exact methods for any 2 dogs.

It surprises me that so many comments are in favor of punitive methods, especially on such an upbeat article such as this one.
One commenter questioned, "...but how do you proof a dog without using proper corrections?" - I think that question points towards the issue here: the level of education on operant conditioning is not to the caliber it should be.
Mark and reward training is not bribery; in fact, it is critical that every person using the clicker/marker understands that no food presents itself before the click/mark. Bribery is when the "deal" is placed up front. Reward is when the payment is a result of the learner's action.
We all work within the same operant conditioning grid - I think many trainers forget that. Those of us who choose to use the positive reinforcement/negative punishment side of the house rather than positive punishment/negative reinforcement have a better understanding of the psychological fallout from poor corrections, etc.
PS - a dog can be conditioned to wag his tail at the site of the prong collar because it means he gets to go outside. It is fact that an organism will endure something unpleasant to get to something more pleasant. The cue means go outside. People who smoke grab their cigarettes before taking their dog out. If the dog wags his tail at the sight of the cigarettes, does that mean he likes cancer?

Wow! I am really dismayed by the number of people posting here promoting aversive training techniques. It is really a shame how many of the "old-time" choke-chain trainers put down operant-conditioning techniques, when they do not fully understand how they work. One of the mantras of positive reinforcement training is "Positive is not Permissive." Positive techniques do not allow or encourage bad or unwanted behaviors. Parameters are set and adhered to. Dogs are not bribed, they are encouraged to think, through shaping. The best agility, obedience, rally, search & rescue, assistance, and therapy dogs are trained using positive reinforcement techniques. I really do not understand this idea of "proofing" a dog by setting him up to fail. Any well-trained dog (through positive reinforcement techniques) will stop and recall in any situation. Just yesterday, my puppy (on leash) flushed out a rabbit and my two older dogs took off after it. All I had to say was "Leave it" and they both stopped. I called them back and they came to me. Sure, they looked back in the direction the rabbit went a couple of times, but they came back to me.

On the whole I agree .... but dogs have also lost something in the last 25 years and that is the freedom they had to just walk around without being locked into their yards. In a way I feel they have been turned into sometimes pampered slaves.In the city where I live, there is one holdout beach suburb where some dogs are allowed to freely wander - but even then the dog ranger comes around sometimes. A dog is a different species. Are we really looking after them properly when they are totally dependent on us for everything, even when and where they walk (usually with a collar and lead restricting them further). Wonder what Elizabeth Marshall thinks of all this.

chain collars abusive? what the hell are people doing with them? i have always used a chain collar; a. love the way it hides into my dog's neck [GSD and GSD-mixes] b. doesnt matt or stain the fur. i cant believe that anyone still "hangs" their dog seriously? i still have the chain collars [all sizes] from my first dog and all my dogs use them [almost 50 years]. Because my boys go to doggie daycamp and boarding, and dog parks - for safety reasons they are required to wear flat collars-this regulation makes total sense to me - so now they have their "play date" collars which when they see me handle are thrilled to slip on.

Last Easter when our family was here, I was preparing an oven proof bowl for warming up a dish. From the fridge I took out a small zip-lock bag that had several unsalted butter wrappers, folded neatly. I used one to butter the bowl prior to adding the food. My daughter-in-law noticed what I was doing and was excited to see a new kitchen trick. I told her I save all the butter wrappers to use in muffin tins, baking dishes, and potato skins prior to baking, and so on. Why throw out the wrapper with a little bit of butter remaining when you take out the stick, especially if you have brought the butter to room temperature, which I often do, because I keep my butter frozen.
I wash all my plastic storage bags in hot soapy water, hang them to dry on a special gadget made for RV's to dry small, hand washed items in the shower. I also do this with Food Saver bags. Hence, it is rare that I buy any food storage bags of any kind.
So, what unusual kitchen helpers do you have?

The big freeze is doing a number on heaters and plumbing. It's just not a good time for heating units to go out or for pipes to burst.
We caught up with one family who really had to bundle up last night.
"We just wrapped up in blankets," says Debby Taylor. "It was very cold, especially like with no burn nights, you can't light the fireplace."
It was a very cold weekend for the Taylor family. It seemed like it was colder in the house than it was outside. With no fire in the fireplace late Friday night, Debby Taylor decided it was time to turn up the heat.
"We just turned it on, heard a funny sound in the unit and my husband turned it off."
The Taylors braved the cold as long as they could, and it was so cold their fountain froze over. They called in a professional -- Seth Haynes with Accu Temp.
"A lot of people that don't know much about heat pumps call us. They freak out when it goes into defrost," says Haynes.
He has been very busy. The Taylors are one of many stops. Haynes checked out the unit and found the problem.
"This particular case was fairly simple, it was just a burnt wire on the run capacitor, I just had to replace the wire. They are back up and running."
This was one of the easy appointments Haynes had -- all he had to do was replace the wire. Haynes suggests you have an inspection of your air and heating units in the winter and in the summer, because it will save you time and money.
As for your exposed pipes or hoses, cover them with blankets or foam -- or they could freeze, expand and burst. Jerry Turner from Diamondback Plumbing says they've had hundreds of calls in the past day due to frozen lines, leaks on roofs or through ceilings, and leaks outside.
Technicians say you should let your hose run a drip so that water keeps moving.
With freezing temperatures, some people in the valley are using their chimneys to stay warm. But heating your home with a chimney could be very dangerous.
The Phoenix Fire Department, along with the National Fire Protection Association, is showing residents how to use their fireplaces safely.
Arizona Chimney Sweep says fireplaces should be cleaned yearly to avoid a fire.
"You should have your chimney inspected at least once annually, the do's and don'ts is basically not stocking them up with trash, not overwhelming the fireplace, understanding that the fluid damper needs to be open when you're burning something inside of it," says Larry Nunez, Phoenix Fire Department.
Experts say gas chimneys should also be inspected yearly to avoid carbon monoxide.

My old recipes are dead I guess and no, I never backed them up and honestly, it's OK with me, because my cooking is a bit different than it was when I was first developing my recipes, so I will be making use of all of you who want to test now that I have more time to put into the book! I am really excited about it.
These were breakfast this morning. Simple white whole wheat flour and oat bran waffles with a strawberry rhubarb compote.

I will probably start sending out recipes within the week.
