welded steel - nickle or chrome plated. No brass plating. Eventually, we may explore color coatings as well. I collect Jacquard ribbons, so we can offer high quality, woven Jacquard ribbons from all over the world. We have well over 700 designs, tastefully matched to include the color of the nylon webbing we construct our leads with. All leads are lined with either organic, 100% cotton or bamboo fleece or velour, or other cotton / poly fleece or velours in many colors. We prefer to make the lining as 'cushy' as possible to protect your dog's neck.
One way to place the collar on your dog's neck, thread the lead and make the 'cinch' knot.
Celtic Origins
gap shown. This is why we suggest the circumference of your dog's neck, directly behind the ears, as a good measurement for the actual collar size, minus 1/2 to 3/4 inch to keep the dog from backing out of the collar as some breeds are famous for doing.
To make this knot, pull the lead through the free ring end of the collar, then loop it back where the lead attaches to the collar, as shown in the picture. Try to keep the collar low on the neck as it makes the cinch knot more effective.
Europa Ribbons
I've had a love affair with Europa Ribbons for nearly 20 years. Woven in Japan, I was taken aback by the quality of these woven ribbons because of their intricate designs, pure color and excellent quality. My pictures don't even do them justice!
These ribbons are the last of a carefully chosen, extensive collection purchased from Europa as they closed their, doors over 14 years ago. Some of the designs have been copied and used by other ribbon manufacters although the quality isn't the same. This is a limited offering of these lovely ribbons.
This is the one competitive dog sport we do for our dogs . . . and they love it!
BIF (Best In Field) Blankets and Leads, home of custom made lure coursing slips and blankets, became an internet business in 2011 when we opened a studio in ArtFire. I retired from government service at the close of 2010, and decided to start this internet adventure as it could be done at home, allowing me to spend more time with my two beloved matron Basenjis; Promise and Gracie as well as our Jack Russell girls, Samantha and Abigail. I've always enjoyed making my own equipment and would sell it at trials while I was showing in Obedience or coursing my Basenjis. The internet has provided a new venue for our stuff and we are reaching more folks who might be interested in our functional, durable and well built equipment, designed to last.
At BIF (Best In Field) Blankets and Leads, home of custom made lure coursing slips and blankets, Dog safety and comfort are our primary concerns although we do want our patrons to be happy with their purchase. Keep in mind, I make everything and I don't sell anything I wouldn't use on my own dogs.
As I'm responsible for this website, there's bound to be a few mistakes, here and there and from time to time as I cope with blonde, senior moments! Keep in mind I am always working on this webpage, so it may disappear for short periods as I continue to tweek it.

Blankets - (made from 95% cotton, 5% lycra)
AKC & ASFA Regulation colors (YEL,PNK,BLU) YEL/PNK, YEL/BLU, Two colors, DBL sided set of two
LGRA (RED 1, BLU 2, WHT 3, GRN 4) set of four, single color, dbl sided
NOTRA (RED 1, BLU 2, WHT 3, GRN 4, BLK 5, YEL 6) set of 6, single color, double sided
Hubby's right finger is holding the loop of the lead threaded through the free ring end. His left hand has the excess lead gathered in it. You should practice releasing the collar on a calf or thigh, to gauge the behavior of the collar as it slides away from your dog's neck. Also, use each hand in practice to see which one is the most comfortable to release the loop.
Liturgical and Ecclesiastical
Still in the developmental stages, I am creating and embroidering ribbons on Kona Cottons or custom dyed ultra suede to match or compliment our nylon colors. I use Madeira classic rayon, polyneons and metallic threads for rendering these highly personalized pieces of art.
Our, BIF (Best In Field) Blankets and Leads, home of custom made lure coursing slips and blankets, ERIBs are made from original or stock designs. Accent charms are also available. I make embroidered ribbons with Kennel / call names, breed motifs, tapestry type and have made slips or martingales with custom lettering for trophies. I enjoy custom projects and this is a growing portion of BIF Blankets and Leads, with almost endless possibilities!
Muscle Shirts - (made from Lycra or Mystique spandex)
AKC & ASFA Regulation colors (YEL,PNK,BLU) set of three
LGRA (RED 1, BLU 2, WHT 3, GRN 4) set of four
NOTRA (RED 1, BLU 2, WHT 3, GRN 4, BLK 5, YEL 6) set of 6
At BIF (Best In Field) Blankets and Leads, home of custom made lure coursing slips and blankets, our blankets are made from 95% cotton and 5% lycra. This is lovely jersey with excellent pigment and durability. There are many types of closure we offer. Each blanket has four, reinforced, sewn in elastic supported loops - two at the neck and two at the girth. These loops allow easy belt / tie replacements, without having to replace the blanket itself. Belts are available as double sided velcro or soft cotton for the neck closure. For the girth, we offer velcro, cotton or nylon belting or a combination of both. For ties, we attach the belts with tri-glides to help manage belt length. A nylon loop is sewn on both sides of the blanket (at the back) to capture the ties and hold the blanket in place. The girth belts/ ties are always cut long to allow for criss-cross tying. Our blankets also allow more than one dog to use them. We also offer velcro in colors to match the blanket. Large landing zones are sewn on both sides to provide easy access. Please include your preference after I have contacted you about your order, usually within 24 hours, after I've been notified by ArtFire or via email.

Like our slip leads, the martingale collars are well padded. At BIF (Best In Field) Blankets and Leads, home of custom made lure coursing slips and blankets, we use a swivel between the noose and lead section, which keeps your dog from tying itself into a knot. Martingale collars are sized to be slightly smaller than the circumference of your dog's neck (behind the ears) and the noose, at it's most open, is wider than the outermost measurement of the width of your dog's head, so the collar slips easily over the dog's head. You simply move the ring down the noose to cinch the collar into a comfortable position.
Using a swivel also allows us to offer leather as an alternative for the lead. I braid the leather on each end and install Chicago screws hold the end tabs. The leather is high quality Latigo, usually 9-11oz weight and vegetable tanning. The dyes are non-bleeding. Currently, we have black, brown and ox blood. All leads are conditioned with Neets Foot oil.
I love Latigo as is softens with age but is tough. A little care goes a long way. Most of my obedience leads are over 25 years old.
For more information or to make a purchase, please click on the link below.
Proper threading of lead portion. Note the spacing between the rings. The collar is sitting as shown in the photo above. Hubby actually has Gracie between his legs, which is not uncommon for those of us who release Basenjis.
Lure Coursing Muscle Shirts and Blankets
Our Muscle Shirts are made from the finest plain lycra and Mystique spandex I have ever sewn with. Excellent fabric memory and color. We use four way stretch spandex. Our Mystique Glitz shirts have micro reflective 'mirrors', making the shirts glitter. These are the perfect coursing shirts for the discriminating sighthound fashionista who wants to make a bold statement on the field.
Click on the link below for additional information or to place an order using our ArtFire Studio!
Martingale leads are a collar and leash in one unit. The size of the collar is governed by the noose, which is controlled by a solid brass or zinc tri-ring. We also make our own beads from material I use for my writing pens which can be used as noose rings. All of our martingales can be made into slip leads and our slip leads can be made into martingales - it's just a difference in hardware. We use 2 inch to 1 inch nylon hardware adapters for the collar ends although d-rings can also be used. I prefer the metal nylon adapters because they 'hug' the neck better than d-rings and take up less collar length.

Designs To Infinity Purse Appears at the 2012 Daytime Emmys!
My very own clutch purse was carried to the 2012 Daytime Emmys-- by none other than myself!!!
My husband's show, "America's Court With Judge Ross" was nominated for an Emmy, for "Outstanding Legal/Courtroom Program", which was very exciting news, having been on for only two full seasons! Unfortunately, the show did not bring home the Emmy, but it was still a win.... and we had such a great time! It was definitely a "win" for me! I had an opportunity to let the ladies know who they need to look up when they're looking for a purse to wear with their beautiful gowns to the next big show!
I created this clutch purse to complement the beautiful blue gown that I wore. I chose a contrasting color, picking up the tiny hints of silver found in the beading of my dress. Silver is the perfect color to wear with royal blue! The purse was made using silk fabric, swarovski crystals, and silver-colored metal leaves, finished off with a beautiful jeweled button as the centerpiece. The outer edges of the frame were trimmed with silver sequins.
I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to showcase my purse at the Emmys... and to be there in person, in the room with some of the biggest television personalities & actors, was an even greater honor... it was a bit surreal!!!
D2I, we made it to the big leagues!

When we set up an experiment, we often have more than one group, perhaps a control group and an experimental group; for example, healthy individuals vs. patients with diabetes, untreated cells vs. cells treated with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, or regular plants vs. transgenic plants. We may even have multiple experimental groups. Today we discuss a few things authors should pay attention to when making statements involving comparisons.
1. Make sure to indicate the items being compared.
Tumor cells treated with compound A showed lower expression of Bcl2. (incorrect)
Tumor cells treated with compound A showed lower expression of Bcl2 than vehicle control-treated cells. (correct)
When a comparative adjective or adverb is used, readers will expect to see a comparison between two items, so the items being compared should both be mentioned in the sentence. In the above example, the word "lower" indicates a comparison is made, and we need to be clear that two types of cells are compared.
Our proposed algorithm is a more robust and accurate method for predicting erosion in pipelines. (incorrect)
Our proposed algorithm is more robust and accurate for predicting erosion in pipelines than existing algorithms. (correct)
Our proposed algorithm is a robust and accurate method for predicting erosion in pipelines. (correct)
In this example, if we use "more robust and accurate," we need to say what is compared with our algorithm. Alternatively, removing the word "more" makes the sentence grammatically correct. As a conclusion of the study, we may only want to say that our method is robust and accurate.
A better understanding of the pathogenesis of muscular dystrophy may lead to novel therapies. (acceptable)
Occasionally we see sentences like the example above in manuscripts. The sentence here does not explicitly indicate the two items being compared because it is understood that the authors mean an understanding better than what we currently know about the pathogenesis of the disease. Such sentences should be used sparingly in a manuscript and never be used to describe specific experimental results.
2. Make sure the items are comparable
We can only compare things of the same type. In the examples above, cells are compared with other cells, and an algorithm is compared with other algorithms. In our experiments, we of course only compare things of the same type, but if we are not careful when we write up the results, readers may get confused regarding what is compared with what.
The 1000-grain weight of rice treated with fertilizer A was higher than fertilizer B. (incorrect)
The 1000-grain weight of rice treated with fertilizer A was higher than rice treated with fertilizer B. (incorrect)
The 1000-grain weight of rice treated with fertilizer A was higher than that of rice treated with fertilizer B. (correct)
Rice treated with fertilizer A had a higher 1000-grain weight than rice treated with fertilizer B. (correct)
In this example, the 1000-grain weight is being compared, but in the two incorrectly written sentences, it is compared with either a fertilizer or rice. One way to solve the problem is to add "that of" in the sentence. We can also restructure the sentence as shown in the last sentence of the example.
Notice that I have used "than" in these examples. You can also use "compared with" but "than" is preferred by native speakers. However, in some sentences, "compared with" should be used.
Compared with the Beijing-Tianjin-Heibei region, the Yangzi River Delta region had higher annual average precipitation. ("Than" cannot be used here to replace "compared with")
The Yangzi River Delta region had higher annual average precipitation than the Beijing-Tianjin-Heibei region. (The sentence is restructured to use "than")
The annual average precipitation was higher in the Yangzi River Delta region than in the Beijing-Tianjin-Heibei region. (Another way to write this sentence)
The annual average precipitation in the Yangzi River Delta region was higher than that in the Beijing-Tianjin-Heibei region. (Yet another way to write this sentence)
These four sentences are all acceptable and express the same meaning. The shortest sentence, which is the second one, is usually the best, but you might use other forms to better fit the flow of the paper.
3. Use different words for changes over time and differences between groups
Words such as "increase" and "decrease" describe a trend and thus imply changes in the same sample over time. To describe differences between distinct groups, words such as "greater," "larger," "lower," "smaller," and "shorter" should be used. Imagine we have a study where patients with low hematocrit received two different treatments, and hematocrit levels were measured in the two groups of patients before and at different time points after the treatments. When describing the results, it is necessary to be clear whether we mean changes in the same group or differences between the two groups.
Hematocrit levels increased in both groups following the treatments and peaked at 1 week post-treatment in group A but peaked at 3 weeks post-treatment in group B. (Here we describe the trend in each group)
At the 3-month post-treatment follow-up, patients in group A had higher hematocrit levels than those in group B. (Here we describe a between-group comparison)
If you only have two groups but have no changes over time, avoid using "increase" or "decrease." However, the results may suggest a trend of increase or decrease.
ELISA showed that fibroblasts treated with the inhibitor secreted more CCN2 into the culture medium than untreated cells.
These results suggest that this inhibitor increased CCN2 secretion in fibroblasts.

General Assembly Chairman warns against election tricks
The COGIC Chairman of the General Assembly released a memorandum warning "candidates for National Office and all individuals vying for positions in the national church" (and their anonymous supporters) against releasing anonymous negative letters during the church's convocation which begins Monday in St. Louis.
There is good reason for Elder James Hunt to release the admonition: its been a recurring character cesspool for the church. As Hunt's memorandum noted, these letters are circulated to whip up wild speculation and fuel gossip in an attempt to smear whatever candidate is mentioned in the letter. To our knowledge, Hunt is the first to address it publicly. Which goes without saying that it is shameful it hasn't been forcefully dealt with before by previous administrations.
COGIC's bizarre culture of secrecy and its anonymous rock throwers club has bred this type of scurrilous behavior. An underground cult of men who lead double lives as respected ministers, transform themselves into low class thugs during the elections. No one has traced any of it to a candidate which is reminiscent of mob behavior.
Hunt urged candidates and their anonymous surrogates to "take the high road" and consider that their actions reflect negatively on the church and even the Lord Jesus.
The question is will Hunt's warning curtail any of the behavior.
Hunt became Chairman of the General Assembly when Bishop J.O. Patterson Jr. of Memphis died last summer.

My lovely variegated nasturtium is being eaten covered in caterpillars. They are small and green with black spots.
Are they good or bad and what can I do?
Hi, they are quite likely to be caterpillars of the Large White Butterfly and are often found eating cabbages and other brassicas. See link:
Thank you Blackstart. I had read the link thank you. What I was asking was what is the quickest effective thing to do. I have got nearly nothing left.
Depends how many of there are. Can you pick them off and put them in a wheelie bin? I don't like to use chemical pesticides if possible so you could look for one of the bacteria based products, see link:
The plant is vurtually dead now. It's such a shame as it was so lovely.
I live out in the sticks and cant buy anything quickly and I needed to do something straight away and hoped someone could give me their personal experience.
I just found some Provado and was going to use that but its been pouring with rain since.
I did notice a lot of eggs on the stems but they are black and not white as per the description of the cabbage caterpillar. The caterpillars looked like cabbage caterpillars pictures on the internet.
Did you manage to find out what the black eggs are? poppikin
I have had some success. I picked off every one of the caterpillars on Blackstart's advice. I didn't much fancy putting them in the wheelie bin as he suggested so took them to the field. When clear I sprayed the plant with Provado. The plant looked much better today and the dear little thing opened a couple of new flowers. Can someone please tell me what the black eggs are? Thanks for help gingergoose.
Can someone please help me with these black eggs. Thanks
Suspect noine of the "Forum" users know Without a picture it's difficult.They might not be eggs being part of the plant. I'd keep an eye on them and see what pops out, if anything, as eggs they will do no harm to the nasturtium.
Thank you Nigel. The caterpillars did enormous damage to the plant and almost killed it. The "eggs" are not part of the plant as you suggest they are part way along the smooth stems. I asked the question because the caterpillar was identified as the cabbage caterpillar and it looks like the internet pictures but it says their eggs are white. Be glad of some help. my goose
If they are really worrying you scrape them off with a finger nail. I'd leave them out of curiosity to see what pops out.
I thought cabbage butterfly eggs were yellow? Maybe I'm wrong. I have discovered there is also a Cabbage Moth which looks completely different. I wonder if they are these? Or is it the poo from something, even a snail or slug?
Thanks Minnie.
This picture of cabbage caterpillars is what I had.
Their eggs are usually a yellowish white.
I did manage to pick off every one and put them in the field
The black eggs are definitely black eggs, not poo. slugs snails or anything else.
I guess I will never know.
Thanks for help.
The nasturtium now looks healthy and has produced a fabulous new crop of flowers so all seems well.
Thanks all for help
The nasturtium has now produced another magnificent crop of flowers and I am very pleased The black eggs disappeared. Thanks everyone for help.gingergoose

Edwin, Jr. Lamasure 1867 – 1916
Signed: " E. Lamasure "
Medium: Watercolor & Gouache
Original Untouched Condition.
Image – Ht: 20 ½" Width: 26″
Frame – Ht: 25″ Width: 30 3/8″
BIOGRAPHY for Edwin, Jr. Lamasure 1867 – 1916
Birth 1867 (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania)
Death 1916 (Bluemont, Virginia)
Lived/Active – Virginia/District Of Columbia
The following biography is based on information from the artist's website, www.lamasure.com as suggested by Michael Ewing:
The Old Santa Fe Trail was a wagon road, running from Kansas City and Independence westward and southward to Old City of Santa Fe, in the days before railroads had been built. The commerce in the southwest passed in wagon caravans over the old trail, with Santa Fe as the depot and chief business city.
Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania of French and Scotch parentage, Edwin Lamasure learned in his youth the engraver's art and for some years was employed at the National Bureau of Engraving and Printing in Washington. His work there was the best possible preparation for the career he followed later, for it taught him accuracy and carefulness of drawing. As a young man he became a noted landscapist, self taught, primarily using watercolors and working from a studio in Washington DC. There he was active in art clubs and exhibited regularly at the Veerhoff Gallery and with the Washington Water Color Society.

Stormwater Tool Available to Jurisdictions
All local cities and villages are required to have stormwater management plans in place. Those plans must be directed toward reducing the total amount of water pollutants that get into our streams. A good plan recognizes the problems – or impairments– already known to exist, and uses strategies shown to be effective for those problems. Stormwater Planner Kari Gerwin is developing a mapping tool that will help local governments update their plans with the best and most current information.
The GIS tool that she is developing will identify what watershed a jurisdiction is located in, list existing known impairments, and make recommendations for implementation of projects that will improve water quality. Gerwin said, "Jurisdictions are now required to address Total Minimum Daily Loads in their stormwater plans. This tool has all the information planners need to make a detailed and accurate local plan. It will save governments a lot of work."
There is no cost to use the new stormwater planning tool. Administrative officials or stormwater planners are invited to contact Kari Gerwin at 419.241.9155 ext. 103 for more information.

I find that Walking Dead graphic novels come out at the right pace. Twice a year, six issues each (which okay, that's a pretty obvious rate if you pause to think about it), and whenever I get one in the mail it's just about exactly the time that I think it's been a little while since I read the last one. I wonder if I would itch for them more, if the show wasn't also coming out on about that schedule (eight episodes instead of six, and closer to the turn of the year than an even split, but nonetheless) to fill in any extra itchings.
Sometimes I can tell what they were going for from the title, and other times (like now), not so much. I mean, Lines We Cross is a rich mine for the entire series, certainly, and most of the individual characters have a lot of story dedicated to that question. But this specific book? Nah, not seeing it.
That said, it is an introspective, quiet, rebuilding book, in which people have time to take stock of lines they have maybe already crossed, regrets they have, relationships lost and found. And I will never get tired of the parallel story arcs between two characters that would be very spoilery[1] to call out. But if introspection is not your thing, there's a new hilarious character (right on the cover!) and the promise of a brand new storyline springing from the culmination of the radio conversations that built throughout the Whisperers arc. So, Kirkman's definitely not out of ideas yet. And, at least for now, I'm not tired of hearing them yet.

If you use these principles of organic gardening, you will produce notably positive effects for your plants and your planet. It demonstrates that you are concerned about the environment as well as the health of your plants. Gardening is an admirable activity. Like other skills, there is always room for improvement. The following tips can assist you.
Shoveling clay is very difficult and lots of work because the clay is hard and sticks to the shovel, making it tough to handle. Coat the shovel with floor or car wax, and buff it with a clean rag to make the job a lot easier. The wax will prevent any rusting, and the shovel will cut through the soil with great ease.
Choose perennials that are not vulnerable to attack by slugs. Snails and slugs can do irreparable damage to your garden in a single night. These pests are particularly fond of young perennials and those varieties with leaves that are tender, smooth, and thin. Perennials that have thick, furry leaves and unpleasant tastes are less likely to attract slugs and snails. Good choices in this category are plants such as achillea, campanula, and euphorbia. Heuchera and helleborus also work well.
Baking Soda
If powdery mildew appears on your plants, don't purchase expensive chemical solutions. All you need to do is mix baking soda with a tiny bit of liquid soap in with some water. Spray the mixture on the plants once every seven days or so until you no longer see the mildew. Do not worry about your plants; the baking soda cannot harm them.
Do you enjoy fresh mint leaves though hate how they grow so fast and take over your entire garden? Stunt their growth a little by planting your mint into a garden container or large pot instead. You can bury the container so the top is flush with the ground if desired, but the container's walls will prevent the roots from spreading so that the plant won't take over your entire garden.
Your vegetable plants need about two or three inches of mulch placed around them. When you place mulch around your plants, it keeps the ground more moist. This is also efficient in preventing weeds from growing. This can save you a lot of time and effort in pulling out the weeds.
Plant heather to attract beneficial insects. Heather is desirable to bees; when heather emerges in early spring, it can be a source of nectar. It is common to find all types of insects inside of an undisturbed heather bed. Always remember this, and wear your gardening gloves if you prune your heather!
You probably already have the skills, the tools and the products needed to utilize the above tips to create your own thriving organic garden. If you do not, you are on the right path to obtaining them. The tips here should help you with your organic gardening. Don't stop here, though, you should continue learning. In fact, it is possible that you came across a trick that you never would have thought of otherwise.

To understand how OSI Industries is leading the world in sustainable operation and environmental management, one might look to some of the incredibly innovative projects it is sponsoring around the world.
In the coastal region of Mombasa in Kenya, for example, an OSI Industries company has spearheaded an energy efficient stove project. The effort involves working with local Kenyan families and helping with them to replace their existing cooking methods with energy efficient wood stoves. The new stoves burn many times more efficiently. That means a significant reduction in carbon returned to the atmosphere.
To date, the project has built almost 700 stoves. These new cookers have saved in excess of 1,800 tons of wood. That means more trees staying in the forest and less smoke going into the atmosphere. Since local residents are hired to build the stoves, the project also creates jobs and improves local economy. Finally, experts estimate that 1,215 respiratory cases have been relieved and more than 3,000 people have benefited in terms of health issues.
The Kenya stove projects is directed by Creative Foods Europe, an OSI company. By reducing carbon output in Africa, carbon offsets are obtained by OSI plants operating in Europe, or anywhere in the world.
OSI Industries is headquartered in Aurora, Illinois, and maintains an international presence with 65 facilities operating in 17 countries. Forbes rates OSI as No. 58 on its list of largest privately owned American companies. The company employs 20,000 people worldwide.
OSI is world renowned for its extreme focus on sustainability practices and working in ways that leave minimal impact on the environment. That includes operating with minimal greenhouse gas emission, preserving fresh water, low-erosion soil utilization practices and more. A long term goal of OSI Industries management is to become a carbon-zero or carbon neutral company. That means it will emit zero net greenhouse gas emissions across its entire international base of operations.
OSI Industries has won numerous awards for its world-class sustainability practices and groundbreaking environmental management. The company serves as a model for how a necessarily energy intensive business model can still function with minimal environmental impact.

I asked to talk to several patients before I made my decision. Really wanted to see one in person, but the only local evidently was a little secretive about his procedure. Thanks again.

winning...so far hell yes...look at the big picture, not your little segment of the economy
Economically speaking, you have to rely on potential short term hypotheticals and a very limited sample of data to fault Trump. But when you absolutely must, for religious or whatever the reasons are, engage in Trump bashing, you'll use whatever is available.
As his job approval in general, and his economic approval specifically keep climbing, it's getting tougher and tougher as well as less and less effective.
Sadly for some, there is absolutely nothing worse than a Trump success on any front...
Agricultural trade and it's effects on the economy. Certainly not a "little segment" of the economy and certainly very important. I can also add that in my particular county we holders of ag real estate pay 88% of all property taxes and it's mandatory.
What is the actual impact on ag so far?
cliff you should know I was talking about your particular little part.....you are hardly responsible for all of ags part
Many "little parts" make for one BIG part.
