As if the looming prospect of a Hillary Clinton-Jeb Bush 2016 déjà vu-fest weren't already giving us a bad case of political whiplash, here comes 2012's square-jawed champion of the conservative elite, Mitt Romney, to further amplify Americans' nagging feeling that we've all been to this rodeo before.

Cops disapprove of free speech in Lakemba
On Wednesday 24 September, five Sydney anarchists were harassed and intimidated by over 20 cops and banned from Lakemba station for six hours. (Yet they wouldn't allow us to catch a train there to leave the area.) Our crime? Demonstrating solidarity with Muslims in Lakemba.
There was a meeting organised to make placards showing solidarity with Sydney's Muslim community, which was and is feeling the heat. The Abbott regime had announced a heightened terror alert and the capitalist media helped out with sensationalist coverage to induce public paranoia about Islamist terrorist attacks. Abbott had declared ominously that some freedoms will have to be sacrificed for the sakeof security. It was quite alarming.
Those of us with some knowledge of history were reminded perhaps of Hitler's dissolution of parliament following the mysterious burning down of the Reichstag in 1933. "Our country is under attack," was the gist of his declaration at the time. This served to justify in the public mind the introduction of repressive measures. Evil intentions of a mysterious enemy necessitated suspension of democratic freedomslong taken for granted. The slide into outright fascism happens more easily than you might expect.
We set to work making placards. Mine said GOVERNMENTS ARE THE REAL TERRORISTS. Another I'M AFRAID OF GOVTS' ILLEGAL WARS, BIGOTRY, RACISM OT MUSLIMS. A third read H8 COPS NOT MUSLIMS.
With these three placards, five of us caught the train to Lakemba via Redfernfrom Newtown, displaying them to the public on the way. As we waited to cross the road to the station two young white guys in a car made Islamophobic comments in response to the messages on our placards.
We were apprehensive going out there on the train but knew we had to act. It was a small gesture but we couldn't sit back and do nothing as Abbott and Co. ramped up the fear factor. They seemed to be hoping and waiting for an atrocity such as a public beheading so that they could swing into action with a big clampdown on everyone's civil liberties and human rights.
After arriving at Lakemba we went and stood beside a small park next to the station. We displayed our 3 signs to the passing traffic and pedestrians. People were looking at us. We attracted a fair bit of attention.The first comment we had was from a young guy passing by, "What's wrong with Muslims?" He'd seen the sign saying 'I'M AFRAID OF...' but perhaps didn't read the whole thing. Hearts sank at the prospect of our message being misunderstood in this atmosphere of tension.
We felt conspicuous. We walked around the corner into the shopping precinct of Haldon St. People read our signs and took photos. We founda new position on the footpath and stayed there for perhaps 20 minutes or half an hour, facing the road and showing our signs. Two young men drove past in a car. "THAT'S what I'm talking about!!" exclaimed oneafter reading the H8 COPS NOT MUSLIMS sign.
A couple of people came up and thanked us. One even said we'd made his day. We gained confidence as we realised that people understood ourmessage and appreciated the support.
One 'respectable-looking' local community member, perhaps a small businessperson, opened up to us. He told us that his wife was eighth generation Australian but he'd suggested she stay home today as she wore a Muslim head covering. I started to realise the pressure people in Lakemba had been under and Muslims in Australia generally, after the recent well-publicised raids on the homes of Muslims by a federal government that denied it was feeding public prejudice against Muslims. When in actual fact that is exactly what it's been doing.
The guy who'd organised the protest did a spiel on camera, explaining why we were there. He was filmed by another member of our group. I talked too and was filmed. The protest organiser conducted a short interview with the member of the Lakemba community who had approached us. I believe all this footage was to be put on youtube.
We wound up our protest and went to a nearby restaurant to buy some takeaway falafel rolls for a late lunch. People were friendly towards us, and appreciative once they realised we were on their side, not the government's.
Eating our falafel rolls (delicious!) we returned to the station. Turned out we had only nine minutes to wait for our train back toNewtown. All of a sudden I caught sight of five or six uniformed police approaching. Uh oh. I realised they wouldn't like our signs. Especially the one that said H8 COPS NOT MUSLIMS. Nevertheless I wasconfident that there was nothing they could do to us as we'd done nothing wrong or illegal. We had merely exercised our right to free speech.
The cops surrounded us, harassing and intimidating us, particularly the woman with the H8 COPS sign. She defended herself well, explaining that she was a Muslim. The police were angry. They spoke of the young Muslim man who'd stabbed 2 police officers before being shot dead inMelbourne the night before. One of them told us we should be gratefulto be living in this beautiful country. We certainly weren't gratefulfor the harassment!
There was heated argument. A member of the public, possibly a Muslim, came to our aid on the station platform. One of the cops asked the manwhether he needed any help, trying to intimidate him and drive him away. But the man stood his ground and remained among us, exercising his right to observe the public debate.
Our train arrived but the cops forbade us to board it. More uniformed cops emerged from one of the carriages. The argument raged. A cop with glasses asserted that there had been 147 acts of terrorism in Australia. I asked him to name one. He said nothing. One of our groupmentioned the bombing outside Sydney's Hilton Hotel in 1978 and said that it had been the government that had carried out that one. Still more cops came down the station stairs towards us. It was unbelievable. (Even now I cannot believe the State's reaction to five peaceful protesters with three placards who were leaving anyway! Yet I saw it. It did happen!)
A second train pulled into the station. Again we were prevented from leaving. People got off, others got on, looking at us and probably wondering what was going on. I held up my placard so that people on the train could see it: GOVERNMENTS ARE THE REAL TERRORISTS. The police demanded our identification, one person at a time. They were aggressive.
I felt like calling their bluff and refusing their orders. They had no right to harass us when we'd done nothing wrong or illegal. They threatened us with fines and court action. I produced my ID and a cop took down my details from my driver's licence. We didn't feel like getting arrested. One of our number was accused by a cop of being a'professional protester.' The cop reckoned he recognised the guy's face.
The cop returned my ID and ordered me out of the station, telling me I was banned from there for 6 hours.
A woman who'd been standing watching with a young daughter from the footbridge over the station said she'd started counting the cops but stopped at 20. There were more than that, too many to count. Around 30 maybe.
Walking with my placard on the roadbridge over the railway I was called an idiot by a white woman with a child. She told me not to come stirring up trouble with a provocative sign in her community. Before I could respond a man, possibly Muslim, who'd overheard her, told me he'd lived in Lakemba for 20 years and that I was welcome.
Frustrated at not being allowed to catch a train, our group decided to catch a taxi back to Newtown instead. We got into a cab beside thepark where we'd started our demo. We asked to be taken back to Newtown. The cab driver said it would take too long to get to Newtown in the evening peak hour traffic. He suggested catching a train from Belmore, the next station along towards the city. He took us to Belmore station.
We told him what we'd done and what had happened. He mentioned harassment by 800 cops and told us that nobody was allowed to say anything, there was no free speech. The community had suffered the oppression of saturation policing. Anyone speaking out would be targeted. He warned us to be careful. The authorities could lock you up in an institution, give you a tablet and say you're crazy, then you would be f***ed. He had children and didn't want anything to happen to them so he felt powerless to change the situation.
On the train from Belmore, would you believe it, more cops! They came through the train checking people's tickets. We all had tickets. However the cops discovered that one member of our group had a concession card that was out of date. So they gave him a hard time over that. There were six or eight cops.
On Sunday 5 October there was a bigger event organised. A speakout inthat small park next to Lakemba station on NRL grand final day. Canterbury Bulldogs supporters drove past waving flags, noisily proclaiming allegiance to their team. There was an atmosphere of excitement. We listened to a succession of speakers. There was an open mike. Many people got up and had their say. It was a hot, sunny day.
When the speakout ended a small group of us went to Belmore, where mobs of Bulldogs supporters had taken over the main street near the station. The police wouldn't allow us to march with our banners, but march with them we did once we were out of reach. Cops chased peoplethrough the crowds to stop them displaying the banners.
Some Bulldogs supporters didn't like the banners. I got the feeling they thought politics shouldn't be mixed with sport. I saw a young guy snatch away a big banner being displayed and throw it to the ground.
We realised there was potential for dangerous misunderstanding. A bigbanner reading STOP STATE TERRORISM could be misinterpreted. Muslims could take that as an accusation that they were terrorists. When anarchists talk of the State we mean the government, the (repressive)apparatus of the nation state. Other people might think it means stop terrorism in the state of New South Wales. Or people might think we're tarring Muslims generally with the brush of the Islamic State extremists.
Some of the Bulldogs fans agreed with our message and we chanted energetically together with them, "Side by side!" It felt awesome to be in cross-community solidarity against racism, bigotry and government repression.
The police eventually managed to disperse the small number of political activists in the crowd and pushed some of us down a sidestreet. From there eight of us retreated down a back lane, only to have a drone hovering above us. Whether the machine belonged to the police and was keeping us under surveillance, or whether it was controlled bysomeone else entirely I don't know, but it was a bizarre and unsettling experience. I for one had never seen a drone before.
Reflections on Sydney's first-ever Anarchist Bookfair
This article was originally written for Anarcho-Syndicalist Review. By Jay Kerr & Sid Parissi.
A collective of anarchists organised a significant political event in March 2014 in Sydney, Australia. Although initiated by the Jura Collective that operates a long running bookshop, events and organising centre, it quickly grew into an autonomous collective of various groups and individuals. Previous bookfairs had been held in Melbourne, a city some 900km to the south, but none had been held elsewhere in the country. This article is an account of the preparation for the event by Jay, one of the organising collective and impressions of the day by Sid, a member of the Jura Collective.
In the Conquest of Bread, Kropotkin discussed the notion that everything we enjoy in the present is because of the combined efforts of people in the past and people in the present; these words ring true in organising the first Sydney Anarchist Bookfair.
Over six months of preparation boiled down to a one day event that took place in March this year at Addison Road Community Centre, building on the work of anarchists around the world who have been organising anarchist bookfairs for decades and the encompassing the efforts of a dynamic anarchist movement in Sydney.
From the early days in London some thirty years ago, when the first Anarchist Bookfair was launched, the idea has spread across the globe. It was with that in mind that a few members of Jura Books got to thinking that Sydney, being the largest city in Australia, really should have its own.
A call out was made to anarchists across the city and before too long a collective was formed comprising of members from Jura and the Black Rose Social Centre in Newtown as well as independent, non-aligned anarchists. True to Australia's composition as a 'nation of immigrants', several of the collective members were migrant workers from Europe; anarchists passing through or long term residents, working collectively alongside Australian born anarchists in establishing the parameters of this new addition to the tapestry of global anarchist bookfairs.
From the first collective meeting important decisions were made on the structure of the group, the desired limits in the size of the collective, and the inclusion of other groups. The collective aimed at being a nucleus, making consensus-based decisions with input and support from the wider anarchist community. Practicalities of the event were debated and discussed ranging from who should be invited to hold a stall or give a talk; should the collective define themes for the Bookfair talks or invite topic suggestions from potential speakers; should there be childcare and how should it be run, where is the best space to hold such an event? Some tough choices had to be made.
Acknowledging the past work of comrades around the globe, emails were sent to London and Dublin for their advice. A range of suggestions were given, practical advice that stood us in good stead, indicating the importance of setting deadlines, defining the parameters and highlighting some issues that have arisen for them over the years. Who knew that the decline in fist fights at the London Bookfair over the years corresponds directly with the decline of alcohol sales?
Organising an event of this size and trying to satisfy all requests and desires of anarchists and activists in the movement is a tough job. Stress hit hard at times and in the collective tensions became frayed, while at other times consensus decision making itself was put to the test as divisions on what and, more importantly, who the Bookfair should include brought differences over anarchist politics to the fore. Where no consensus was viable the default fell to the negative with no action taken, a situation that can (and did) hit proactive organising hard and raises issues for organising on a wider scale.
But, in general, the experience of organising the Sydney Anarchist Bookfair was positive as cool heads tended to prevail. Sydney's anarchist community rallied to support the event with positive suggestions and contributions, promoting far and wide, from emails and online posts to flyering and poster distribution across the city; a vital part of the success of any event, especially an anarchist bookfair.
Our combined efforts were duly rewarded when between 500 and 700 people turned out to Addison Road Community Centre, browsing the stalls inside Gumbramorra Hall, and attending talks and discussions in the Latin American hut next door or over at Speakers Corner on the lawn. Anarchist Bookfairs promote anarchist ideas through attraction, offering a relaxed, non-partisan atmosphere for people to engage with others in discussing new ideas. The success of the Sydney Anarchist Bookfair, a collective effort built on the work of people from around the world, on the work of years past, offers hope for the future. Anarchist Bookfairs are worth spreading.
Impressions of the day.
Anarchists take over a former military base! Well, not quite but we did manage to fill out a large and smaller hall and a large grassed area of a former military base that had been handed over for community use. The place is now a busy community-use area and the site of a weekly market and two reuse/recycle outfits in addition to many of its other functions. Think of a mini Christiania, but not squatted. We had a great start to the day with an 'Acknowledgement of Country' that was given by Aboriginal Elder Ray Jackson.
Wow, what a day! Everyone smiling, talking, laughing, discussing.... 30 different stalls in the big hall, anarchist, Wobbly, union, and the largest number from community groups who each paid $50 for a table – and everyone I talked to thought it was well worth it, in fact, excited about the opportunity. It was an opportunity to spread knowledge about their group, network with other groups and generally have an anti-authoritarian festival. So, Jura ran a number of tables, including ones for PM Press and AK Press, and general anarchist books. In addition, other stalls were organised by Black Rose, Melbourne anarchists, Wobblies from Sydney and Melbourne, anti-nuclear, vegan, leftist T-shirts for sale... and many more.
Besides the stalls there was vegan food and drink, and free apples and water available from the information centre, music from individual troubadours and also from the anarchist Riff Raff Marching Band, physical stuff like yoga and women's self defence, a join-in singing group, an open 'DIY' area and a 'tune-up-your-bike' space. One of the organisers sorted out the child care, with a certified child care worker on site – They were dressed as pirates! Then there were the discussion meetings on a variety of topics. These included: Oppression of Australia's Indigenous People, a discussion on a university strike, on Bakunin's 200th Birthday, the Spanish Revolution, two on feminist and anarcha-feminist topics, environmental issues, and one by Michael Schmidt on 'Global Fire: The lmpact of Revolutionary Anarchism'.
It was great to see such a variety of people attending, from babies to an anarchist elder Jack Granchoff in his '80s. Most were younger, in their 20's and 30's, with, at a guess, a good gender balance, and perhaps even more women than men. The young children running around having fun and the range of participants demonstrated that, in many ways, this was an evolving, maturing and culturally-richer anarchist and near-anarchist milieu than in the past. From a book-sales point of view, it was really encouraging to get so many books, pamphlets and other material out to people who don't often get to the shop. So, yes, it was a bookfair, but it was much more than just that.
This writer didn't get to the after party, but those who went said it was a blast. And everyone's keen to build on this year's strengths and lessons learned, and have another next year.

"There are no compulsory movements or elements, so each team can present their individual strengths and skills," reads Dogdance International's preamble. "No other dog sport offers that much flexibility to ... adapt each performance to the capabilities and needs of each team member (dog as well as human)." Sandra Roth is a ballet and jazz dancer with a passion for dogs, so moving into dog-dancing was a natural for her and turned out to be the perfect sport. As for Lizzy, her dancing companion, Roth writes in her profile that "Lizzy has been learning tricks and freestyle moves since she was a puppy. But we've had many problems and she was not an easy dog. So our main focus for the first 3 years was on her social behaviour and not on dog sports." Roth continues that Lizzy "gets more and more confident and our relationship has improved a lot. She is also starting to enjoy the attention by the audience." And Roth adds that, "Other than dancing we also do some obedience training, we do Treibball, scent work, lunging, dog scootering and whatever is fun for both of us." Don't you agree that their performance takes your breath away? And by the time Lizzy is doing her front-leg-crossover, I couldn't stop the tears, this was oh so lovely. Home is where the dogs are in new Coldwell Banker spot There are few things better than coming home and being greeted with the wagging tails and the unbridled joy our dogs exude. These moments are gloriously featured in a new commercial titled "Home's Best Friend" the made its debut during ABC's airing of The 87th Academy Awards on February 22. The 30-second ad spot is produced by Coldwell Banker Real Estate and features 16 rescued dogs discovered on Adopt-a-Pet.com. To help more dogs find a forever home, Coldwell Banker is announcing the "Homes for Dogs Project." By teaming up with Adopt-a-Pet.com, the largest nonprofit pet adoption website in North America, the campaign aims to find homes for 20,000 dogs in 2015. "Our previous spots have showcased the joy of coming home, so this year it made sense to portray who's on the other side of the door," said Sean Blankenship, chief marketing officer for Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC. "With more than 43 million U.S. households having dogs, there is no question that our pets go hand-in-hand with our love of home. The 'Homes for Dogs Project' takes this a step further, allowing our affiliated companies to join us in helping adoptable dogs find homes." It's an admirable goal, and a good example of how some corporations are partnering with humane organizations to brand their values and philanthropy. "Dog love" also resonates with consumers, and this effective commercial captures the delight that many of us experience every time we walk through the door. The annual Oscar airing has become a popular launching pad for commercials trying to capture a more sophisticated crowd as opposed to the populist viewership of the Super Bowl. Advertisers often choose to debut their more thoughtful and cinematic spots during the Oscar telecast. For Coldwell Banker, they are hoping that the most memorial clip you saw at Hollywood's big awards broadcast was be their new commercial. Ruth Silverman is a treasure. She combines a curator's eye for fine photography with a lifelong passion for dogs. It has resulted in two seminal books The Dog: 100 Years of Classic Photography and The Dog Observed, numerous photo exhibits and a personal collection that rivals many museums. The Bark crossed paths with Ruth many years ago, and she has been an invaluable advisor to our efforts on many fronts, introducing us to a host of great photographers and art of all kinds that have graced our pages. Ruth is one of those people who seem to know everyone, after having been a curator for the International Center of Photography in New York, as well as a successful photojournalist. She takes delight in connecting creative parties, be it in art, writing or publishing—Ruth is a cultural matchmaker. Visiting Ruth in her home in Berkeley is like a trip to gallery row. Every wall, shelf and corner is filled with fine prints, paintings and photographs … a framed André Kertész, a William Wegman Polaroid, a classic Nicholas Nixon. We were excited to hear that Ruth has donated a good portion of her collection to raise money to help the dogs she so dearly loves. Friends have organized a month-long online auction to benefit both the SPCA's "Take Your Best Shot" program, which increases the adoption rate in high‐kill, low-income shelters by presenting quality, attractive portraits of available pets to potential adopters, and the HSUS' "Pets for Life" program, which addresses the need for spay and neuter services in underserved communities. The appropriately named "Good Dog Art Exhibition and Silent Auction" can be viewed online at http://tinyurl.com/GoodDogArt through February 26, 2015. It's a wonderful opportunity to acquire first-rate photography and art while helping animals in need and the programs that serve them. And if you happen to be in the Bay Area this month, you can view the art in person at two venues—Wag Hotels and San Francisco SPCA. A special Good Dog Art Party is being held at Wag Hotels on the closing night of the auction, February 26. Tickets can be purchased at the URL above. We hope you'll expand your art collection and help the dogs! with Pope's Blessing CORRECTED VERSION On Dec. 16 The New York Times, where the following article was sourced from, published a clarification about the remarks attributable to Pope Francis: What a refreshing, and can I say, enlightened pope that Catholics have with Pope Francis! In responding to a little child's grief at his dog dying, Francis told a crowd at St. Peter's Square that, indeed, "paradise is open to all of God's creatures." This message sent theological scholars and humane societies across the world into a frenzy, the former trying to figure out exactly what the pope meant, the latter rejoicing in the great news that dogs and all animals can go, and merit going to heaven, and in fact, have souls. Such marvelous news. In reading through the reports about this "divine" decision, it was learned that it wasn't until 1854 when papal infallibility was actually inscribed in that faith by Pope Pius IX who also supported the doctrine that animals have no consciousness, hence have no place in heaven, and even worse he tried to stop the founding of an Italian chapter of the SPCA. But back in 1990, Pope John Paul II seemed to reverse Pius when he said that "animals do have souls and are "as near to God as men are." This position wasn't well advertised by the church. Unfortunately John Paul was followed by the stricter more conservative, Benedict who reverted back to Pius's position. But now we have a new pope and definitely a new age in the way that most view animals, with a pope who, "citing biblical passages that assert that animals not only go to heaven, but get along with one another when they get there." Francis was quoted by the Italian news media as saying: "One day, we will see our animals again in the eternity of Christ. Paradise is open to all of God's creatures." The editor of Catholic magazine, the Rev. James Martin, who is also Jesuit, like the pope, said that he believed that the pope was at least asserting that "God loves and Christ redeems all of creation," and adds that "he's reminding us that all creation is holy and that in his mind, paradise is open to all creatures, and frankly, I agree with him." While it is not such as surprise that Pope Francis, who took his papal name from St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals, would take this humane, enlightened position, it is a remarkable gift he has given to all animal lovers this holiday season. Viva le Pope Francis! Ever wonder how a professional athlete handles the pressure of competition and a grueling 6-month long schedule? For burgeoning NBA star Klay Thompson of the Golden State Warriors, it's a walk in the park … the dog park. When Klay isn't in the gym or on the road, he likes to take his dog Rocco, an English bulldog, to his local off-leash area at Cesar Chavez Park in nearby Berkeley (CA). We've seen him there, playing fetch and doing what dog people do … unwinding, taking in some fresh air. "With me, my friends or my family, I can't help but talk about basketball, so this is my escape," Thompson is quoted in a San Francisco Chronicle profile. ESPN analyst and hall-of-fame player Charles Barkley calls the 6 ft 9 Thompson the best NBA player at his position—strong praise. Thompson's team, the Golden State Warriors, apparently agrees, recently resigning their star shooting guard to a multi-year, $70 million contract. What was Thompson's response at the post-signing press conference? "We were trying to get the contract signed, and all he wanted to do was go home to his dog," mused Warrior general manager Bob Myers. We know the joys firsthand of Cesar Chavez Park OLA, it's where the idea for The Bark was born. In fact, the 17-acre OLA overlooking the San Francisco Bay was founded by Bark co-founder Claudia Kawczynska in 2000. One of the founding dogs was Claudia's dog Nellie … named after former Warrior coach Don Nelson. A bit of history we think Klay Thompson would appreciate. With Dogs Galore + Hilary Swank, Jane Lynch and many more stars There is a must-watch TV telethon on Thanksgiving night for all dog lovers. We urge you to tune into the history-making Fox's Cause for Paws: An All-Star Dog Spectacular, a first-of-its kind program that features rescue dogs, and only rescue dogs. The show came out of the remarkable efforts of co-producers, Hilary Swank and Michael Levitt, both of whom are big-time advocates for dog rescue/adoption. The show will be cohosted by Hilary Swank and Jane Lynch, and feature a cast of leading Hollywood celebrities, including Channing Tatum, Miley Cyrus, Queen Latifah, Betty White, and so many more. The idea behind the program is the need to bring the plight of rescue dogs to center stage. It's amazing, but sadly true, that many Americans still do not understand that millions of dogs are needlessly killed annually in this country, or that others are languishing in overcrowded shelters waiting, and waiting for their forever homes. This program wants to convince people that dogs must be saved and that the perfect dog is waiting for you at your local rescue group or area shelter. From purebreds to one-of-a-kind mixed breeds, there is a rescue dog there for you and your family. The show will also be a celebration of the human-dog connection and, as Hilary explained, "it will be a joyful family show with a lot of fun and lots of dogs, with best tricks, best howlers, celebrity lookalikes, best viral dog video, plus celebrating the people who have done good work to help dogs and organizations that are doing good things and sharing all those stories." It's great that they'll be featuring the heroes on the front lines of animal rescue, those rescue organizations that work tirelessly to save lives, such as Beagle Freedom Project (featured in Bark's fall issue) This remarkable show will celebrate not just the rescuers, but also, the dogs themselves, from mixed breeds to purebreds, from youngsters to seniors and those with special needs, highlighting their uplifting, life-affirming stories. This makes for perfect viewing for the whole family. On Tuesday, Hilary Swank was interviewed by Ryan Seacrest on his very popular iHeart radio show , she explained to the listeners, as she did in our winter issue, the problems faced by dogs in shelters and how grateful they are to their rescuers, she explained how tirelessly rescue groups work to care for dogs and connect them to forever homes, and she also gave The Bark a big shout out. She told Ryan that while she has been on the covers of Vogue and Vanity Fair, it was more important to her, and a bigger honor, to be featured, with her dear dogs, Rumi and Kai, on the cover of The Bark! We were thrilled by her words but we'll be even more thrilled if you tune into Fox's Cause for Paws: An All-Star Dog Spectacular, 8 to 10 pm (7 pm Central time) on Thursday, Thanksgiving night on your local Fox station—tuning in is very important because a large viewership will give networks the green light for further rescue advocacy programming. And, as executive producer Michael Levitt notes, "This is our big opportunity to change the misperception of shelter animals and show the world that rescuing a dog is always the way to go." I hope you will be moved to donate to the cause and open your hearts to adopt a rescue dog or help in any way you can. This is a cause where every person can make an important difference. So remember: adopt, foster or donate, and most importantly, spread the word. Join Swank, Levitt and your local rescue communities in saving the lives of animals and enriching your own as well. For Q&A with HIlary Swank, see here The yearly Humane Award Winners presented by the ASPCA® is a way to bring attention and notoriety to a handful of deserving individuals—outstanding people and animals who have demonstrated extraordinary commitment to animal welfare. These individuals act as role models and sources of inspiration for the humane community and the world at large. The 2014 awards were just announced, and include two heroes that we are well familiar with … Jonny Justice has been named ASPCA Dog of the Year, and Lori Weise, co-founder of Downtown Dog Rescue (Los Angeles) was awarded the prestigious ASPCA Henry Bergh Award. We've covered both Jonny and Lori in lengthy features in The Bark, and congratulate them on this special, well-deserved honor. ASPCA Dog of the Year Jonny Justice was one of 49 dogs rescued from unimaginable cruelty as part of the 2007 Bad Newz Kennels dog fighting investigation, which resulted in the conviction of NFL quarterback Michael Vick and others. The ASPCA played a central role in the investigation, assisting with the recovery and analysis of forensic evidence from Vick's property, and leading a team of certified applied animal behaviorists to evaluate the rescued dogs. A black and white pit bull, who had little or no positive interactions with people or other dogs, Jonny was given a second chance when he was adopted by his foster parents, Cris Cohen and Jennifer Long. As Jonny adjusted to life as a typical pet, it became clear that he loved interacting with children. In 2008 he found his true calling as a therapy dog, and these days spends much of his time offering love and support to terminally ill children receiving medical treatment (and their families). Jonny is also a champion for literacy, and has participated in programs, where children practice their language skills by reading aloud to him. The tale of Jonny's inspirational comeback from the horrors of dog fighting to work as a therapy dog has traveled far and wide, even inspiring a line of plush toys that extend his ability to touch children across the country. ASPCA® Henry Bergh Award During her daily commute eighteen years ago to a furniture factory on the edge of Skid Row in Los Angeles, Lori Weise routinely saw stray dogs suffering from terrible abuse and horrific neglect. Inspired to act, Lori and her coworkers created Downtown Dog Rescue in the back of her furniture factory to rescue animals from dangerous situations and care for them. For many animals, it was the first time they ever experienced compassion. Known as "The Pit Bull Lady," Lori has evolved Downtown Dog Rescue into a large volunteer-based animal charity that rescues dogs and assists underserved communities in South East Los Angeles, Watts and Compton. Lori and Downtown Dog Rescue created the South L.A. Shelter Intervention Program in 2013, providing pet owners resources to keep their pets rather than relinquish them to the South L.A. Animal Shelter. Downtown Dog Rescue now has its own kennel with room for 35 dogs, and has provided free spay/neuter surgeries for more than 10,000 dogs in the Los Angeles area. Lori has also helped almost 13,000 dogs and cats stay in their homes and avoid being placed in shelters. Lori's selfless and nonjudgmental philosophy continues to break down obstacles and change the landscape for animal welfare in these Los Angeles communities. Today's inbox brings us a special bit of eye-candy (also known as publicity pitches) that we think is worth sharing. It's a video featuring NFL quarterback Tom Brady playing fetch with his dog Lua. This short contemplation on hard work, success and man's best friend is a promotion for UGG, the Australian shoemaker who employs Brady as their official pitchman. We don't know if it will make people run out and buy their shoes, but maybe a few will be inspired to adopt a Pit or Pit-mix ... like Tom. A couple of years ago we reported that Jackie Speier (D-Calif) deserved a Bark call-out for a job well-done for "ripping" into the National Park Service for an agent who used a taser on a man who was running with his small dogs off-leash in an unincorporated area in San Mateo County. Now a judge has ruled that the park ranger, Sarah Cavallaro, acted unlawfully when she used her taser on Gary Hesterberg. Not only that but Judge Jacqueline Scott Corley also found that since the leash law had never been enforced at the Rancho Corral de Tierra—which had only recently been acquired by the Golden Gate National Recreation Area—that the ranger overstepped her duty that day, the first day of leash enforcement. Rangers had been instructed to take a "soft enforcement, outreach approach with regards to violations of the Rancho's new rules." This was an approach that apparently Cavallaro did not follow. It was reported that When Hesterberg was confronted by the ranger about the leash policy, he, allegedly, was uncooperative and would not provide her with his name. So after being tasered he was actually arrested on suspicion of failing to obey a lawful order, keeping dogs off-leash and providing false information, but San Mateo County prosecutors declined to file charges. Back in 2012, Representative Speier had noted that, "Many of my constituents are understandably angered by what appears to be an excessive use of force by a park ranger." She added, "From the information I have to date, it does not appear that the use of a taser was warranted." Speier also requested information about training in taser usage for park rangers, including the appropriate utilization and risks of tasers. The judge found in favor of Hesterberg, awarding him $50,000 in damages for both physical and mental suffering. |

This is the absolute worst room I have been in. I was shocked that they haven't lost the Super 8 franchise. The carpet was torn and worn through, door frame all broken up where it had been kicked in, the bathroom counter top was the only thing newer than 30 yrs old. I was put in a smoking room because I was told no non smoking room was available. by midnight my vehicle was one of seven vehicles. I woke up with a nose bleed from the smoke smell in the room.

It was pretty clean but the smell was SO strong that I had a headache within minutes of walking in. I would have asked for another room except that I got the last room (lucky me). I woke up to get some breakfast to find police inside the lobby. There was a couple disputing the charges on their card and apparently law enforcement was called to resolve the matter. From what I gathered the couple was charged for more days than they stayed and for more than what they were told when they reserved the room. I think it was a mixup on both the couple and hotel's part. However when I went to check out I thought I might be faced with the same problem. The lady at the desk did not seem to know how to operate the computer and told me I was a "no show" for the single night I stayed. I would recommend paying cash if you stay here. Overall it was not an awesome experience but it served it's purpose for the night. ...

Product description
At a time when many raptors in Britain and Ireland are recovering from low population in the mid to late 20th Century (or earlier), there is a growing demand for high quality information on numbers, distribution, and population trends of these birds. This publication, "Raptors: A Field Guide to Survey and Monitoring", written by experienced professionals, is aimed at people who watch, survey or monitor raptors. It provides detailed descriptions of survey methods for all species of raptor (Accipitriformes, Falconiformes, and Strigiformes), which regularly occur in the United Kingdom. This publication, including a CD-ROM containing raptor calls, sets out to promote best practice for the survey and monitoring of raptors. It is hoped that it will provide a starting point for anyone wanting to begin a raptor study, and indeed to encourage a new generation of raptor ecologists. Written and edited by members of the Scottish Raptor Monitoring Group, this book draws on the knowledge and experience of over 300 raptor specialists. "Raptors: A Field Guide to Survey and Monitoring" has been funded by Scottish Natural Heritage, with assistance from the other Statutory Conservation Agencies in Britain and Ireland, as well as non-government bodies concerned with birds of prey.

I want to have breast augmentation surgery. How long before the procedure do I have to stop smoking?
Smoking interferes with wound healing.
We require our patients to stop smoking three weeks before surgery and three weeks after surgery. Avoid second hand smoke. This is for your safety - do not take any risks.
As I say to my patients, quit smoking for your health but for surgery, smoking interferes with skin healing, so I ask them to quit 2 weeks before for incisions under the breast and 2-3 months before for visible scars like on the nipple areola or armpit. http://www.casas.md/index.php/breast-augmentation/
for a breast augmentation, there usually is not a problem with skin healing, but we worry about your lungs during anesthesia.
I recommend at least 2-4 weeks without smoking before surgery, and a similar period after surgery.
Navin Singh
I recommend stopping 2 weeks before the surgery. Remember, it is Nicotine that causes the problems, so you should also stop using the nicotene patch, Nicorette gum, etc. before surgery.
I can't stress it enough: A cigarette habit greatly compromises healing. Smoking damages skin, keeps incisions from repairing and worsens scarring. Moreover, nicotine, which gets into the bloodstream, can cause blood clots. Smoking triggers the release of skin-damaging free radicals, increases swelling, worsens scarring, and impedes healing by limiting blood flow to the skin.
If you smoke, you should refrain for at least two weeks before your procedure and two weeks after. I'd far prefer it, of course, if you started cutting back well before that two-week mark. It's a bad idea to be smoking regularly before you have surgery, and an even worse idea after.
I am not aware of specific studies that show an increased risk of complications in smokers who have a breast augmentation. There is for other plastic surgery procedures such as breast reduction and facelift.
The problem that causes risks and complications is not smoking itself but the nicotine in the system that can come from other sources such as nicotine gum or chewing tobacco.
It makes sense to have everything going for you if you are electing to have a cosmetic surgical procedure. The consensus seems to be that you should have no nicotine in your system for two weeks before the procedure to allow it to clear the system and two weeks after the procedure in order to heal.
There are certain procedures where stopping smoking is required due to the effects of nicotine. These include abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), mastopexy (breast lift), and facelift. Because nicotine constricts blood vessels, when the tissues are undermined and pulled tight they are more vulnerable to reduction of blood flow. However, with breast augmentation alone, the issue is not as critical so recommendations about quitting vary between different surgeons.
It is best to stop smoking at least 5 weeks before any plastic surgical procedure that involves general anesthesia. However smoking has less risk for breast augmentation and it does for a breast lift or facelift. Please consult a plastic surgeon for specific advice.
It is important to stop smoking before any aesthetic surgery. I ask patients to stop three months prior to a consultation. This may sound excessive. But after ninety days, people generally can stay away from cigarettes. Surgery can be stressful, and stress during recovery may be the reason someone might start smoking again.

Cardica Submits MicroCutter XCHANGE™ 30 510(k) Application For Marketing Clearance
REDWOOD CITY, Calif.,
Aug. 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Cardica, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRDC) today announced that it filed regulatory documents with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for marketing clearance of the MicroCutter XCHANGE™ 30, a cutting and stapling device designed to be used in multiple open and minimally invasive surgical procedures. The XCHANGE 30 has a cross-sectional area six times smaller than conventional surgical staplers and articulates up to 80 degrees in each direction. The lower profile provides greater access through a 5 mm trocar.
The submission to the FDA includes the results of Cardica's recently completed MicroCutter European Trial (MET1). In the MET1 study, the MicroCutter XCHANGE 30 met the primary endpoint, freedom of MicroCutter-related severe adverse events when compared to historical controls from the medical literature, with only one event in 160 patients enrolled and 423 deployments.
"The filing of our 510(k) application represents the culmination of effort from many key contributors including the employees who worked tirelessly to deliver an innovative device that addresses a surgical need, the leading physicians who tested the XCHANGE 30 and provided invaluable feedback and the patients that underwent surgical procedures facilitated by the device," commented Bernard A. Hausen, M.D., Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Cardica. "Pending market clearance by the FDA, we look forward to introducing the MicroCutter XCHANGE 30 in the United States, the world's largest surgical stapling market."
About the MicroCutter XCHANGE 30
Cardica's MicroCutter XCHANGE 30 is available in select centers in Europe today. The device has a cross-sectional area six times smaller than conventional staplers, and articulates up to 80 degrees. The device uses reloadable cartridges with a 30-millimeter staple line length. Laparoscopic procedures today are primarily performed through 5- to 10-mm trocars ports. To accommodate conventional stapling technology, however, surgeons are forced to use 12- or 15-mm trocars, which can result in high post-operative pain, port site infection or ventral hernias. These complications can prolong surgical time, delay discharge, and result in unnecessary hospital readmissions. The smaller cross-sectional area, diameter and much higher articulation of the XCHANGE 30 platform are designed to allow easier access through smaller, less-invasive ports, and to enable faster and easier access to vital organs and tissue for key advanced laparoscopic procedures.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Freddie Mac's weekly mortgage rate survey shows that 15-year fixed rate mortgage rates and 30-year fixed-rate mortgage rates ticked higher this week, but only slightly; and remain near record-low levels.
Click here for today's mortgage rates.
Freddie Mac's Primary Mortgage Market Survey from November 29, 2012 showed the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage (FRM) rate climbing to 3.32 percent, on average, as compared to 3.31 percent the week before.
A 0.01 percentage point weekly change is nominal. One year ago, the 30-year FRM averaged 4.00 percent.
Borrowers should expect to pay 0.8 discount points to get access to the Freddie Mac published rate. Discount points are closing costs where 1 discount point is equal to a fee that is one percent of your loan size.
For the same week, the 15-year fixed-rate mortgage rate averaged 2.64 percent, also up 0.01 percentage point as compared to last week's 2.63 percent average rate nationwide.
One year ago, the 15-year FRM averaged 3.30 percent.

Low mortgage rates are doing more than just lowering mortgage payments of refinance homeowners. They're also influencing the housing market overall, including boosting year-to-date home sales which are up 20 percent as compared to last year's tallies.
Low mortgage rates change the economics of Renting vs Owning and with low- and n0-downpayment programs available via the FHA, VA and USDA, first-time buyers may have the most to gain.
46% of first-time buyers are using FHA mortgages, according to the National Association of REALTORS®.
Not surprisingly, therefore, the S&P/Case-Shiller national home price index, on a seasonally adjusted level, improved 5.2% from January to September of this year, with all 20 tracked cities showing positive growth.

Freddie Mac says its mortgage rates remain near all-time lows, but it's not just conventional loans for which rates are rock-bottom. Mortgage rates for refinance products including the FHA Streamline Refinance and VA Streamline Refinance are ultra-low, as are rates for jumbo loans.
