Pet Wellness Program
Our clinic offers a progressive new approach to veterinary care. Our Wellness Plans embrace and focus on preventative medicine based on the specific life-stage of your pet. Each animal is assessed individually and given options based on factors such as species, breed, age, and lifestyle. We recommend prevention, nutrition, and diagnostics appropriate for your pet to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Our role is to educate you on certain procedures and medications that will be beneficial to your pet. This allows us to be more flexible with our recommendations, and gives you better control of your pets' healthcare. The key to our Wellness Plans is to emphasize on the annual health examination. Each year when your pet comes in he or she will receive a comprehensive physical exam and age appropriate diagnostics (such as blood pressure evaluation, parasite testing and and blood work) to screen for early signs of disease. For participants in the Wellness Plan, any vaccinations due at the time of the annual exam will be given. Pets with health-related concerns will be recommended more advanced diagnostics when necessary.
Please contact us for more information or to enroll your pet in the Wellness Plan.

Zonkizizwe Secondary School
Welcome to our school!
Zonkizizwe Secondary School has been serving the township of Zonkizizwe Katlehong since 2008. It is a no-fee school that serves an underprivileged community – three learners are in child -headed households and 25 orphans live with extended families.
Although the school is situated in an unprivileged community, we make the best of what we have. Our students are multi-talented and with our limited resources, we try to develop and showcase their talent so they can shine as they ought to.
Facts about the school
- 1344 learners
- 51 educators
- 237 Matric learners
- The school's pass rate has increased in the past three years from 80% to 93.7%.
"Star for Life has been a relief for our school. Through coaches encouraging learners to look beyond their current situation and have dreams for their future, as well as teaching them how to take care of themselves, we are experiencing a decrease in teen pregnancies. Learners are also given an opportunity to to study abroad. Star for Life has in many ways contributed positively in the lives of our learner's."
E.P. Masemola
"As a coach I create a platform for learners to express how they feel about their personal issues and help them find a solution. I support them in learning difficulties and help them gain confidence in their own learning ability. To assist learners from a poor background I also help with food parcels."

Sound System Lyrics
Artist: Operation Ivy
Album: Energy
sound system gonna bring me back up
one thing that I can depend on
try to describe to the limit of my ability:
its there for a second, then it's given up what it used to be
contained in my music somehow more than just sound,
this inspiration coming and twisting things around
Because you always know that its gonna have to go.
you always know that you'll be back in the cold.
point of departure sublimated in a song
its always coming to give me that hope
for just a second then its gone but
static pulse inside of music bringing us escape
its always temporary changing nothing in its wake
just a second where were leaving all this shit behind
just a second but its leaving just this much in mind:
to resist despair that second makes you see
to resist despair because you cant change everything
to resist despair in this world is what it is to be free
wake up turn my box on
bust the shade let the sun in
times getting tougher bout time to start runnin'
box in my hand music by my side
skanking to the rhythm of the music by my side

Sometimes it is just nice to show you what I've been up to. The weekend of March 17-19 ... it was a quiet & calm March weekend. The hubs and I jumped in the car and went to new kayakin' stop here in Virginia ... got a few rowin' moments in before a thunderstorm popped up. Rumbling away, we decided, we best be getting our butt out of the water, ASAP!! Wild how those thunderstorms come out of nowhere!! It was a gorgeous day, only took my Iphone.
I made a homemade Angel Food cake. Have you ever had to get 12 egg whites? ... separating eggs is not an easy task. Ever needed cake flour before? Take a cup of all purpose flour, take out 2 TBS of that flour, put back in 2 TBS of corn starch. Simple as that!! NEAT, HUH??! Did you know that it take 30 mins, 2 have something become "room temperature"? I really did learn a whole bunch from this homemade baking recipe. SO FUN, not sure I will be making another angel food cake a while ...but fun all the same. You see an angel food cake has to be inverted to cool ... no bottle that we have in the house is the right size to fit within my pan. So I got the coffee percolator, which was the right size, then to hold down the percolator I used my Kitchen Aid mixer. My brother did ask me, WHY DIDN'T U USE WATER N THE PERCOLATOR? Honestly, I didn't think that way? My Dad ask me, you know the cake is not flat, I didn't think about that either? Does a cake have to be flat to cool? No clue??! It was delicious, by the way, with fresh strawberries and everything. YUMMY GOOD!! Thank you for stopping by today. Hope you are well. Enjoy your day! Be Well & Be Blessed! Beth ( ;

Know me. Care for me. Ease my way. The Providence Promise.
Security Guard Martin Hernandez fulfills that promise starting at 5:30 a.m. each day at Providence Tarzana Medical Center where he directs patients and visitors through the complexities of a hospital undergoing major construction.
The parking flow has changed, the main entrance is gone. The patient admitting office has moved. Workers in orange vests scramble about outdoors where much of the hospital is fenced off.
And the first person people see as they walk in the hospital is Hernandez with a smile, kind words - and directions.
"I'm the first person they see when they come in the hospital," he said. "They have a lot on their minds. They're having surgery, or they're going to see someone who is sick. Or maybe they're going to labor and delivery. I don't want to add to their worries. I want to make it as easy for them as possible."
Rodriguez was lauded in a recent on-line review that named Hernandez "employee of the year." "I like to start my day with someone with a spark of positive energy, the write said.
Hernandez is humbled. I just want people to have a good impression of the hospital so they are comfortable, they're not worried."
Directional signs are plentiful in the parking lot and inside, but we are creatures of habit – especially in a hospital where visitors often are on edge.
Hernandez also is charged with keeping the hospital safe by ensuring employees are wearing I.D. badges and visitors wear tags.
He is one of six guards on duty, his supervisor Leon Floyd said.
Security guards play several roles. They're safety officers, guides and at Providence Tarzana, they're greeters dedicated to easing the way for patients and visitors.

A few years back, the government of Thailand decided to release visas on arrival for the citizens of a few countries. The list includes 21 states, and Lithuania is one of them, which means that if you are a Lithuanian national, you can get a Thailand visa on arrival instead of going to an embassy. What is even better is that you can apply online for it. iVisa can help you with the entire process.
What is required of you?
You do not have to do much. In fact, your only job is to provide iVisa with some information about yourself and your trip. Here is a list of what you need:
Valid passport – getting a passport is not a problem for most travelers, and if you already own one, take a look at when it expires. The passport needs to maintain its validity for at least another 30 days from your date of arrival to Thailand.
Return flight ticket – the Thailand visa on arrival allows you to spend only 15 days inside the country, so you need to have a confirmed return flight ticket that proves your return within those 15 days.
Proof of accommodation – you need to have a hotel reservation or a signed letter from a host that states you have accommodation during your trip to Thailand.
Valid e-mail address – once you apply on iVisa, they will send you an application form that you need to fill in before your trip. You will receive the document above via e-mail, which is why you need to make sure that the address you provide is valid. Check the spelling as well.
Means of payment – by applying online, you must pay iVisa for its services. You can make the payment using a credit or a debit card. If you have a Paypal account, you can use that as well.
At your arrival in Thailand, you may also be asked to reveal the reason for your visit so that the immigration officers can ensure that the purpose of your visit will not exceed the allowed 15 days.
How to apply?
iVisa created a simple and elegant two-step application process, and if you need any assistance with it, the company also provides support 24/7.
The first stage will ask you to insert your personal information, as well as some info on your trip. You must also choose one of the three available processing times:
Standard processing – people who apply online often select this option because it is the least expensive. You will be charged $20, and your application takes just 1 business day to be processed.
Rush processing – this option shortens the previous processing time to only 2 hours. The cost, though, is a bit higher. This option costs $50.
Super Rush processing – this is the fastest option you can find. It costs $70, but your application is processed in as little as 15 minutes. It is ideal for people who want their visa fast.
The second stage consists of payment and revision. Be advised that any mistakes you may make are impossible to correct once your application is processed. Just look carefully at what you insert to avoid any errors.
The Thailand visa for Lithuanians allows a 15-day stay maximum, and it provides multiple entries. Also, keep in mind that you must also pay for the visa itself once you get to Thailand. It costs 2000 THB, and it can only be paid in Thai currency.
Note: you can apply online using iVisa only if you travel to Thailand by air and you land at Suvarnabhumi airport in Bangkok.

A Location-Based Scavenger Hunt for ... Buick?
Buick — yes, Buick is getting into the social media scene with a platform-agnostic, mobile-based scavenger hunt.
Called the "Quest for the Keys," the program, which starts Monday, is designed to build excitement around the General Motors' brand's lineup. This includes the Regal, Enclave and LaCrosse, along with the new Verano. Quest for the Keys will roll out in seven citiesincluding Miami, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Chicago, Minneapolis, New York and Austin, Texas, over the next few months. The scavenger hunt offers clues on Facebook and Twitter for the first three weeks and then culminates with a day of offline scavenger hunting.
However, instead of linking with one location-based service — as is common — Buick has opted to make the program platform-agnostic, requiring the use of Foursquare, Gowalla or Facebook Places to guide participants on the hunt. In each city, the program awards six keys that reward each contestant $2,000. A final drawing in November will award three winners the choice of a Verano, Regal, LaCrosse or Enclave. Buick is also offering a Facebook trivia game on its Facebook site.
Though considered behind rival Ford on the social media front, Buick parent company General Motors recently hired New York-based agency Big Fuel to handle is social media marketing. While GM discontinued its Oldsmobile brand in 2004 and shuttled Pontiac in 2009, the automaker is hoping Buick will endure. The scavenger hunt is part of an effort to skew the brand younger.
Chris Cedergren, managing partner with Iceology, says that Buick has been partiall successful in reaching a younger audience. "The product line is much more tuned to a younger buyer base," Cedergren says. "It's now much athletic and sportier. Buick now believes it can catch a younger buyer and they have, but it's not as young as they hoped so far."

Side Effects & Changing Treatment
There are two main factors why your HIV doctor might consider changing your treatment:
Drug Side Effects
Whilst the latest HIV drugs tend to have minimal side-effects compared to older treatments that are less commonly used, side effects still do occur from current HIV treatments.
However the extent of these side-effects is far less – for example lipodystrophy-related side effects which affect body fat distribution and metabolism are far less prevalent now.
Also side effects don't tend to affect the majority of people, but some side effects can be serious.
Given people live longer lives now on modern HIV treatment combinations, side effects can be cumulative and also impacted by ageing, and there are still some known side-effects related to specific HIV drugs.
Your doctor or clinician is best to advise you about HIV treatment-related side effects and how to deal with them. Your HIV doctor will understand which treatments are linked with certain side-effects and will routinely monitor your health in relation to elevated markers linked to side effects (for example kidney function, or heart disease risks).
Overarching, the benefit of HIV treatment far outweighs the risks of HIV treatment, but this may vary among individuals and any underlying risks that may be present.
Some treatment-related side effects can be lessened or even stopped by adopting healthy lifestyle habits such as improvements in diet, exercise, reducing alcohol consumption, avoidance of smoking, etc.
There may also be effective treatments for side effects that your doctor can provide, or sometimes specific complementary therapies that may help to overcome some side-effects.
Usually if side effects are extreme and intolerable this can be an important reason to switch to other treatments under the guidance of your doctor. Always discuss side-effects with your doctor, even if you are not sure whether they are side-effects or something else. Any new symptom or change in health (minor or major) or pain that you notice should be discussed with your doctor.
Drug Resistance
As discussed in other sections of our website, drug resistance can emerge due to a lack of good adherence.
Drug resistance can also emerge over time (i.e. accumulate) which can cause HIV viral load to rise, which is a sign that your current treatments may not be working as well as they could be. This is why you should keep up your routine viral load monitoring appointments with your doctor, as it's a way to keep checking your current treatments are working.
A brief rise in viral load however is not always a sign that your HIV drugs might not be working, the more usual sign is a persistent elevation and increase in viral load over time.
Your doctor may run further tests to check for drug resistance, but will also check that you are taking your treatments properly before a switch is made to other treatments. If drug resistance is found and a switch of HIV treatments is recommended, then you should accept your doctors opinion on which drugs to switch to as he/she will have well considered the clinical options which you should trust. Any known side-effects of the new regimen which is suggested for you will be discussed with you by your doctor or pharmacist.
QPP is also available as an information source and support for any new treatments that you may need to consider, if you would like to discuss them.
If you have any questions about HIV treatment, please call QPP's Health Promotion and Treatments Officer toll free from a land-line on 1800 636 241, use the contact form provided or call (07) 3013 5555 (nationally).

By Guest Blogger: Kathleen Surline, NY Certified Peer Specialist
Founder, Wisdom Within (https://wisdomwithinweb.wordpress.com)
Of all the profundities that have come to light in the course of my illness, recovery, and even my subsequent choice to become a NY Certified Peer Specialist, one the most perplexing has been disconnection; or perhaps, more accurately, reconnection.
I suppose it goes without saying that most of us experience some manner of disconnection before, during and/or after our mental health diagnoses. While we are struggling with our symptoms and no one else gets us. While we are are fearing what might really be wrong. While we are sleeping less and less. While we are swimming in that initial sea of uncertainty. We may not feel able to hold a conversation with a friend or loved one; our words don't work. We may find we are
isolating (such a common occurrence during depressive episodes, etc.); we have a hard time reading with understanding; we feel unable to explain what we are going through, so we may say nothing at all. We don't go out. We don't answer the phone. We stop getting online.
Slowly, slowly, through the course of recovery work, we make certain new connections that help our footing. Maybe its a medication regimen that finally seems to help, after months of trial and error and side effect surprises. Maybe it's a therapist or doctor that we finally feel is the right fit for us. Perhaps we took up writing again, or art, or music, or (name your therapeutic endeavour of choice here). All this helps. But many of us are still very separate from the rest of the world. Some disabled by distance or finance, some by inability to leave their homes to attend support groups, workshops, conferences.
Then, lo and behold, and by whatever manner the opportunity came, we find there is now a connection, a path if you will, in peer support, that can allow us to make lemonade from lemons.
The Offices for Mental Health and the Academy for Peer Services avail us of the possibility of becoming Certified Peer Specialists in mental health via the online
coursework they've so outstandingly developed! To connect with a like-minded group, even if only in spirit. To share what we've lived, survived, learned along the way, from our oft times lengthy dance in the darkness. To then take that forward, with shared knowledge and standardized education, in our history, in this new work, in an effort to help the next humans who find themselves at the dance; to encourage wellness, self-advocacy, and hope. Despite perhaps some sputters and
spurts, we reconnect online to APS coursework and discussion forums, and focus on certification. The sense of accomplishment and affirmation once that certification happens, well, it's like a rebirth of sorts. Back into the world of the functional, the valued, the accomplished!
Then, we may find, despite all best intention and enthusiasm, that peer support work itself can, at times, leave one feeling disconnected in its own right. Or at the very least, somewhat isolated.
If we are fortunate enough to gain a position in the peer support workforce, then the fellow consumer-survivors we serve may be our most frequent interactions. We are there for them (not the other way around). Its not like we have a support group for Peer Specialists. And the work is not easy; if it were, everyone would do it.
On the other hand, if we are not immediately finding positions in the peer support workforce, then we may again feel isolation and disconnect. Peer support work is evidence-based, yet old stigmas and biased perceptions still serve as roadblocks to our early success in some regions. This frustration could be enough to cause one to give in to the agony of defeat!
But, as Winston Churchill so aptly put it, "never, never, never give up."
Now, we have APS' new Virtual Community! What an opportunity! Might it be possible to create new connections with this as a starting point? Could this be one small step, to at least a foothold on the ladder to reconnection? Might we develop online support groups for our peer support workforce? For our new and continuing APS students? The mind boggles in wonder about ways can we look to reconnect our disconnects through this forum, and where that might … connect us to the future.

All of you visits here already knows 'Runway Inspired Challenge', I guess. I wanted to join in from their 1st time around. This time, I got the opportunity to make a card for RIC #3.
Here is the inspiration photo, Gareth Pugh 2012 S/S Paris collection.
And here's my card.
Since I loved the monochromatic look of this prêt-à-porter women's wear, I was going to make mono-toned card. But at last, I made this card to use almost of the colors in the photograph - not only the dress.
I put the flower at the center like a model displayed clothes on a runway. And the image of the layered striped dress was placed its background. Made the background pattern like chevron to use grid pattern stamp. Added to draw the silver lines on it.
*The center piece was a little raised to use pop dots.
Stamp used:
Hero Arts: Enveloped pattern / S5507
Art of the card: Le Journal / AC010
Other supplies:
Bazzill CS, Tsukineko Memento / Tuxedo Black, Brilliance / Starlite Silver
Ranger Acrylic Dabber / Silver Hero Arts Hues / Dots
ribbon, color pencils, copic markers
Thanks for stopping by!
Have a wonderful weekend!

Animal-Cruelty Charges Against Science Firm Dropped
A federal administrative-law judge has dismissed animal-cruelty charges against one of the nation's leading suppliers of science-teaching materials.
U.S. Agriculture Department lawyers charged in a complaint filed against Carolina Biological Supply Company in 1991 that the firm had improperly euthanized cats and committed other violations of the federal Animal Welfare Act.
The U.S.D.A. case followed a widely publicized investigation by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals for which two PETA employees secured jobs at C.B.S.C. and videotaped lab activities.
As part of a campaign by the Maryland-based animal-rights group against the practice of dissection, PETA released a report and videotape purporting to expose mistreatment of animals by C.B.S.C. and another Burlington, N.C.-based company, including footage they claimed shows cats being embalmed while they were still alive.
Many schools were led to reconsider their dissection practices. (See Education Week, Feb. 20, 1991.)
Credibility Questions
But Dorothea A. Baker, an administrative law judge at the U.S.D.A., found that agency officials did not prove that the company exhibited "careless disregard'' for the law. It was fined $2,500 for a record-keeping infraction, and the other charges were dismissed.
In her March 30 ruling, Judge Baker rejected the testimony of two U.S.D.A. veterinarians, who said that the cats on the tape were alive, siding with C.B.S.C.'s witness, an expert in embalming who said the cats had been properly euthanized.
The judge also said that the evidence gathered by PETA employees was unreliable because they were unlicensed investigators whose intent was to stop dissections.
The U.S.D.A. did not appeal, and the ruling became final May 12.
Mary Beth Sweetland, a spokeswoman for PETA, contended that the judge was "egregiously prejudiced.''
"How else does she expect us to get the evidence?'' Ms. Sweetland asked. "Does she expect C.B.S.C. to just come out and say, 'Sure, we embalm live cats'?''
"C.B.S.C. knows what it did and knows it was exposed,'' she added.
But Paula Basirico, a spokeswoman for C.B.S.C., noted that the judge had "commended'' the firm's "spotless record and continued commitment to the welfare and humane treatment of animals.''

Big Brother technology
Last weekend the New Scientist reported on the harrowing developments in the world of surveillance technology. The week before, the Home Office announced plans to give law-enforcement agencies, local councils and other public bodies access to the details of people's text messages, emails and internet activity. New technology has been developed by Seimens to ensure this kind of absolute surveillance can be integrated into one system.
This software is trained on a large number of sample documents to pick out items such as names, phone numbers and places from generic text. This means it can spot names or numbers that crop up alongside anyone already of interest to the authorities, and then catalogue any documents that contain such associates.
Once a person is being monitored, pattern-recognition software first identifies their typical behaviour, such as repeated calls to certain numbers over a period of a few months. The software can then identify any deviations from the norm and flag up unusual activities, such as transactions with a foreign bank, or contact with someone who is also under surveillance, so that analysts can take a closer look.
The system has been sold in 60 countries and 90 phone call "monitoring centres", developed by the joint-venture company Nokia Siemens Networks, are already being used around the world, although we don't know which countries are using it.
Whatever the level of accuracy, human rights advocates are concerned that the system could give surveillance-hungry repressive regimes a ready-made means of monitoring their citizens. Carole Samdup of the organisation Rights and Democracy in Montreal, Canada, says the system bears a strong resemblance to the Chinese government's "Golden Shield" concept, a massive surveillance network encompassing internet and email monitoring as well as speech and facial-recognition technologies and closed-circuit TV cameras.
I'm more worried about its use by non-repressive regimes.

As Christ had come to this earth, so that I could have a second birth.

Today's housing starts number for September was highly misleading, as the overall headline result was skewed by a big jump in multi-family units, primarily 2-4 unit buildings. Single-family home starts declined 5% from August to September. It's the single family unit starts that are relevant to publicly traded homebuilders. Their stocks continue to be more overvalued today than at the peak of the housing bubble.
I have a new homebuilder short-sell report posted. I want to share an interesting story about this Company, which further adds to the number of "red flags" I have found buried in this Company's financials.
In late 2013 I wrote an article showing how this Company was managing its earnings per share with share buybacks and inappropriate NOL reversals. Mr. Zeumer sent me an email questioning my math on the effect of the share buybacks and Net Operating Loss reversals. I replied by saying that my math was laid out in detail in the article and that if he was confident that the Company's math and its use of NOL reversals was appropriate, then he and rest of upper management should take after-tax cash from their bank accounts and buy the stock for their own accounts. I added: "we know that management has been good at selling stock into the Company share buybacks." Not surprisingly, I never heard back from him after that.
This particular Company reports its earnings soon. While I have no opinion with regard to whether it will miss consensus or use the accounting gimmicks I present in the report to engineer a "beat," the Company did miss earnings last quarter. I would suggest the way to play this one is to take a partial short position ahead of earnings with the intent to add if the Company "engineers" a beat and the stock pops, or wait until after earnings to start building a short position. Either way, this stock is eventually going a lot lower: NEW HOMEBUILDER SHORT-SELL REPORT

Colorado's Troubles in The Chronicle (several updates)
Today's Chronicle of Higher Education has a long article (may be paywalled) on the University of Colorado Department of Philosophy's issues with sexual misconduct and climate for women, with remarks from people inside and outside the department.
They wanted to help solve their field's longstanding problems over the treatment of women and find ways to improve the ..
What Google Thinks People Think About Philosophers
Enter a word or two into Google and its guesses about what you're looking for, based on what most other people have looked for using similar words, will appear.
So what do people think of philosophers? Hmmm….
How does Google autocomplete other philosophy-related searches? If you find one worth sharing, take a screenshot, send it to [email protected]…
Drunk Utilitarians
Laboratory assistants have to do all sorts of terrible, embarrassing things, but surely this is among the silliest: Enter a bar in Grenoble, France. Identify people who look moderately drunk. Walk up to them, tap them on the shoulder, and say something along the lines of, "Uh, hey, this is awkward, but, would you be interested in answering some questions about philo..
The Moral Psychology of Racist Brutality
Kate Manne (Cornell) writes in The Stone in The New York Times that the Michael Brown shooting in Ferguson, Missouri, and the events that have occurred in its wake, suggest that a traditional understanding of racism is mistaken:
One possibility is that people are treated brutally because those who mistreat them fail to grasp their common humanity — or, similarly,..
How Much Weight Should a Candidate's School Have?
"The next time you do a job search break your committee into two groups. Have one group evaluate the candidates without reference to the institution from which they graduated and have the other evaluate the candidates with all of the institutional information included. I can almost guarantee that the short lists will not be the same. And I believe that anyone who is..
Famous Papers First Rejected
"The Strength of Weak Ties" (1973) by sociologist Mark Granovetter is an extraordinarily influential paper, one of the most cited in sociology (with nearly 30,000 citations, according to Google Scholar). Yet it was initially rejected. You can read the rejection letter via a link from here. It is an interesting case of peer reviewers dismissing an idea because they w..

Marmor works in legal and moral philosophy. His wife, Elizabeth Garrett, ..

APA Member Demographics

Funding and Philosophical Results (Updated w/ Replies by Dennett)
Suppose you were reviewing a scientific report that drew the conclusion that a diet without fat was in fact unhealthy, and that butter and cream and even bacon in moderation were good for you, and suppose further that the science was impeccable, carefully conducted and rigorously argued. Good news! Yes, but the author acknowledges in fine print that the research was..
Non-Academic Hires — a Reminder
The academic philosophy job market is underway, but academia is not the only place philosophy PhDs might be seeking employment. Check out the Non-Academic Hires page here at Daily Nous to see what kind of work philosophers have landed outside of academia. If you are a philosopher who has recently found employment outside academia, please add your information to that..

Alan Richardson is professor of philosophy at the University of British Columbia. He works mainly in the history of philosophy of science and analytic philosophy. He has written an open letter to the leadership of the American Philosophical Association, the Canadian Philosophical Association, the British Philosophical Association, and the Australian Association of P..
Assessment and Philosophy Courses
Most of the discussions regarding "assessment" are fine examples of exactly what we do not want to see college producing: vague and uniform truisms, hooked up with measures so meaningless as to guarantee that nothing will ever change. It is the deadened life of the bureaucratic mind. But imagine, as an alternative, academics charting the careers of students who have..
Update from Leiter
In a post at his blog, Brian Leiter responds to the September Statement calling for him to relinquish control of the Philosophical Gourmet Report (PGR) by saying that "there may be a lot more to the story." He also says that he and the Board of the PGR have made "considerable progress the last few days" toward "a plan for the future in which I step down as editor af..
Reference Management Apps
Philosophers, I have been asked to ask you all about reference manager / bibliographic software, such as Endnote, Qiqqa, Mendeley, Zotero, etc. Do you use any of these? Is there one in particular you would recommend?
Ludlow Sues Undergraduate (updated)
Peter Ludlow (Northwestern) is suing the undergraduate who accused him of sexually assaulting her. The lawsuit "alleges that the student knowingly made false statements to news media and Northwestern professors after he rebuffed her sexual advances." Ludlow had previously launched a defamation lawsuit against Northwestern University officials, fellow philosophy prof..
Broader Effects of the PGR
The following is an excerpt from an email a well-known senior philosopher sent to his/her colleagues regarding visiting speakers:
"The events are being organized so as to maximally benefit the department. This includes promoting the reputation of the department, providing intellectual stimulation, and just having plain fun. Normally, conferences and workshops sho..
Nottingham Pulls Out of PGR (see 2nd Update from Nottingham)
The Department of Philosophy at the University of Nottingham has issued a statement asking to not be included in the Philosophical Gourmet Report while Brian Leiter has a leading or advisory role in it. Here is the statement:

Philosophy Professor Implicated in UNC Academic Fraud Investigation (several updates)
Philosophy professor Jan Boxill was named as an active participant in an academic fraud scheme in a 136-page report issued earlier today by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill entitled "Investigation of Irregular Classes in the Department of African and Afro-American Studies." The report details the existence of a number of phony "paper classes." Accordi..
Open Access and Journal-less Publishing
Recently I was asked by the editors of a journal whose mission and scholarship I support and respect to review a book by a scholar I very much admire. In the past, I would have accepted the invitation without a second thought and proceeded to read the book and develop a review. Over the past few years, however, as my work has focused on questions of public scholarsh..

World Philosophy Day Plans
This year's World Philosophy Day is one month away, on November 20th. From the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) website:

Philosophy Jobs at Community Colleges (updated)

(a) Where are community college jobs typically advertised?
(b) What makes a job candidate look good, on paper, to community colleges?
(c) How is the job search process different at community colleges?
(d) What misc..
Professors in Poverty
A few weeks ago Salon published "Professors on Food Stamps: The Shocking True Story of Academia in 2014." The article shares the plight of adjunct instructors, a lot of whom teach many courses at multiple institutions for minimal compensation.
"The most shocking thing is that many of us don't even earn the federal minimum wage," said Miranda Merklein, an adjunct ..
How Much Should Publishers Pay Contributors?
A professor who prefers to remain anonymous—perhaps so as to not weaken his bargaining position—asks for help from Daily Nous readers about how much he should request to be paid for allowing a publisher to use one of his articles in a textbook anthology. He writes:
Does anyone have any information about how much, if anything, an author should expect to receiv..
Philosophers and Cognitive Bias
Should the order in which a person considers thought experiments affect one's responses to them? Rationally, it seems no. Yet the "order effect" is well-confirmed. What about philosophers? We are supposed to have a kind of expertise in handling thought experiments and are known (?) for thinking clearly and rationally; certainly the content of our judgments are not s..
On 'Begs the Question': A Poll
With alarming frequency I am hearing friends declare that we've lost "begs the question." What used to be a distinctive phrase for the fallacy of assuming the truth of the very claim you are setting out to prove (aka petitio principii), "begs the question" is now widely used to mean "raises the question." A Language Log post from over 4 years ago presented some data..
Philosophers to Help Mine Big Data for Biomedical Research
Carnegie Mellon University's Department of Philosophy is teaming up with the University of Pittsburgh to form a new "Center for Causal Modeling and Discovery in the Biomedical Sciences."

If you lead a healthy lifestyle, you can help maintain your blood pressure in a safe range. This will assist you in lowering your risk for heart disease.
A healthy lifestyle consists of the following:
• Maintain a healthy weight
• Eating a healthy diet
• Getting enough exercise
• No smoking
• Limit your alcoholic intake
There are a number of treatments and medicines available to treat high blood pressure. It is said, "Precaution is better than a cure." We need to follow healthy lifestyle changes in order to prevent high blood pressure.
Blood pressure is directly proportional to your body weight; it simply means as you increase your weight your blood pressure tends to rise. Over weight individuals have an increased risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, and other illnesses. A healthy weight can help you feel more active and lower your risk of heart disease.
It's not just what you weigh that's significant, it also matters where your body stores extra fat. Similar to other inherited things, your body shape derives from your parents. Some people are "Apple-Shaped"; you tend to have extra fat stored in your waist area. Others are "Pear-Shaped" having more fat at their hips and thighs. The former tend to have higher health risks than the latter.
To lose weight you need use more calories than you consume. Eating three to five hundred calories less per day could lead to losing one and two pounds per week. This is a realistic weight loss. This may seem slow to you, but this weight loss would add up to a significant weight loss over a period of several months.
Physical activity can help you maintain a healthy weight and lower your blood pressure. For adults, he Surgeon General recommends 2 hours and thirty minutes of moderate exercise, like brisk walking or bicycling every week. Aerobic exercises can help condition your heart and lungs and can prevent certain diseases.
If you have certain health problems like heart disease, high blood pressure or others, you should first consult with your family doctor. He can set you up with sensible goals based on your proper weight for your height, build and age.
Cigarette smoking raises your blood pressure and puts you at higher risk for a heart attack and stroke. It's simple, if you do smoke, quitting will lower your risk for heart disease. Your doctor can suggests ways to help you quit.
Avoid drinking too much alcohol, as this can also raise your blood pressure. Men should drink no more than 2 drinks per day, and women 1.
Moderation is a key word to remember when thinking about improving your health going forward. Over-indulgence in most things lead to problems. Small steps can provide large gains in your overall health.

June 12 Zodiac Sign Is Gemini
Birthday Horoscope Of People Born On June 12
June 12 birthday horoscope predicts that you are hard workers who generally get your way. You are patient, optimistic, and likable people. Those born on this day are free-spirited giving individuals. You enjoy life to its full extent.
With a realistic view of the world, you are held accountable for your mood swings and restless behavior. However, creative and quick to learn new things, June 12 birthday people are youthful individuals who get bored easily.
Your enthusiasm makes it easy for you to take on multiple tasks. Your birthday meanings say you like having a variety of chores or goals to attend to and have the ability to be resourceful and you adapt well to change.
The Gemini astrology analysis for those born on June 12 is that you enjoy other people and all the different cultures that belong to society. You find it intriguing to have a melting pot in one room. Although you take pleasure in these friendships, family ties can be someone distant.
Oh, you do your best to live up to your parent's expectations, you don't exactly fit the image. Because of this, it is suggested that Gemini will be lenient with their offspring, which typically will be a large tree of brothers and sisters.
According to the June 12 horoscope, in ideal conditions, you may marry while still very young. Wanting a large family, you are likely to be with your soul mate forever or something close to it.
The love astrology by birthday also predicts that these individuals will typically leave their mind at home when it comes to some relationships and dealing with emotional situations. Therefore, more so than other twins, you can be critical of partnerships not based on spiritual connections.
Your soul mate will be forgiving and understanding especially of your flirtatious ways however harmless. You have a need to be stimulated, and such supply could come from various sources. When you graduate into adulthood, you will realize that this is perhaps one of the June 12th birthday personality flaws.
If today June 12 is your birthday, you had known all of your life what you wanted to be when you grew up. You are lucky in that aspect of your life, as most do not have a clue until mid-life. You have prepared for this day. You were resilient and business minded.
Those of you born this day reach higher than most do. You need more and money is a motivating factor in choosing a career path and field. You will do best in a job that is fast paced allowing you to be active. Any activity after work can be costly, as you like to do it up. Be careful, watch your spending, and balance your account balance.
According to the Gemini birthdays predictions, you are generally in good health. You do not have much to worry about even as you stay busy, but you do. Get some sleep, so you have the strength to carry out your daily agenda.
Gemini zodiac sign natives typically tend to put more on the body than you should. You know too much of anything is not good for you to relax.
When you take on too much, you can be thrown off balance, and it will show in your work performance. Pamper yourself more by treating yourself to an exotic meal or perhaps get a facial as stress can show up in the skin along with other areas of the body.
The zodiac characteristics for Gemini with birthday June 12th show that you have big dreams and possess the energy and optimism to achieve big things. You are the go-getter who never lets an obstacle get the best of them.
You will do well in any career field but would make an exceptional therapist or professor. Your enterprising ideas can be costly so you will need to watch your budget. Those born on this day need to relax more and take your vitamins.

Pisces today's love horoscope:
Tuesday 11th of June 2019
Single Pisceans could discover help or input is available from someone keen to assist with matchmaking. Rather than reject any offer of assistance, allow someone who wants to delight in seeing you happy with their efforts to surprise you. It's also possible attached Pisceans may want to stay close to home to enjoy romantic and intimate pleasures on offer. Home is where the heart and an array of sensual experiences can be found now.
Pisces tomorrow love horoscope:
Wednesday 12th of June 2019
Something that becomes more demanding or possibly time-consuming on your part could have a knock-on effect to affairs of the heart or a special relationship. It might be something you see as manageable, but a loved one or someone sees differently. If circumstances dictate that your focus may need to shift elsewhere briefly, then there are benefits to making this clear. What you do or undertake now, you do with someone's best interests in mind, and that's what matters.
Pisces yesterday love horoscope:
Monday 10th of June 2019
Assessing your current love life circumstances or those surrounding a special relationship at face value probably only reveals half the story. Your intuition is your best guide to determine the reality of a particular situation. By looking beyond what's obvious within a romantic or relationship scenario, you can avoid offering the most obvious response. By listening to your intuition and connecting with your imagination, you won't struggle to know precisely what to say or do to restore harmony where it's needed.
Capricorn Daily Love Horoscope
- Category: Love Horoscope
Capricorn today's love horoscope:
Tuesday 11th of June 2019
It could be easy to see the object of your affections as obstructive or going out of their way to be negative or gloomy. However, it's also possible you're focused intently on something that matters to you and aren't considering the reasons behind a loved one's attitude or behavior. You might need to make more of an effort to see a shared situation realistically. Encouraging the one you love to offer their input could be a good place to start.
Capricorn tomorrow love horoscope:
Wednesday 12th of June 2019
There's no time like the present to put a romantic or relationship plan into action, and if there's something you've been holding back from taking the initiative with in your emotional world or a close relationship, then seize a chance now to do so. What gets put in place at this time has a strong connection with the future, and that's where your focus appears to be. If your heart encourages you to make a move or long-term decision, then step forward confidently.
Capricorn yesterday love horoscope:
Monday 10th of June 2019
A warning bell could sound in your mind when you find yourself dealing with a romantic relationship scenario that causes your cautiousness levels to escalate. Although in some ways, the right thing to do would involve dealing with whatever transpires and resolving it instantly, you could be inclined to detach yourself briefly from whatever demands attention. You're dealing with a brief obstacle or annoyance, and choosing not to rise to certain bait could be a wise move.
Sagittarius Daily Love Horoscope
- Category: Love Horoscope
Sagittarius today's love horoscope:
Tuesday 11th of June 2019
Something connected to your emotional world or love life could become complex due to an assumption being accepted as a fact. What may have started as solid and undeniable could develop into something speculative, and an open discussion with a loved one or potential partner may be needed to bring the truth back into the equation.
Sagittarius tomorrow love horoscope:
Wednesday 12th of June 2019
There are benefits to knowing when enough has been said to the object of your affections – and knowing as well when to let what has been said be absorbed and understood. Your keenness to make a point could involve you going to unnecessary and excessive lengths to do so. Your ability to be as good at listening as you are talking won't be unappreciated by someone close now.
Sagittarius yesterday love horoscope:
Monday 10th of June 2019
Embracing the spirit of partnership or collaboration in your emotional world or within a love relationship can bring delightful benefits. Your independent streak could be strong most of the time, but you may be willing to accept the offer of a loved one's input or support in ways that you might not normally do. Two heads or two pairs of hands could make lighter work of something you planned to tackle solo. Try to see the benefits of accepting help when it's offered.
Scorpio Daily Love Horoscope
- Category: Love Horoscope
Scorpio today's love horoscope:
Tuesday 11th of June 2019
You might be aware of how you see a proverbial glass as half full while a loved one or someone close is determined to see it as half empty. The shift in their attitude you'd like to see will need to come from them, and you may need to make clear the limits that exist regarding how willing you are to be subjected to their negative thinking. Encouraging an attitude of gratitude on both sides can banish pessimism before it becomes too deep-rooted.
Scorpio tomorrow love horoscope:
Wednesday 12th of June 2019
A door that may have been shut in your emotional world for some time could reopen now or shortly. As an obstacle to romantic or relationship progress becomes removed, it's possible a new level of collaboration with a loved one holds more promise or potential than you thought it did. Your relationship with a special individual might never be the same again – but the new era commencing promises that this will be for all the right reasons!
Scorpio yesterday love horoscope:
Monday 10th of June 2019
You're helped to adopt a more light-hearted attitude towards affairs of the heart at this time. This could encourage you to be more willing to accept that whatever presents itself in your emotional world, you'll deal or cope with it successfully. This could also be a time when you're less concerned about taking a romantic or relationship risk – and the urge to do something spontaneous or exciting could be too difficult to ignore.
Libra Daily Love Horoscope
- Category: Love Horoscope
Libra today's love horoscope:
Tuesday 11th of June 2019
You don't need to go to considerable lengths to impress a loved one or potential partner – especially in a material sense. What they'd probably like to see is you taking a matter as seriously as they do. If a financial angle exists with this, then offer suggestions about how money needn't play an integral part in the fun you can create and enjoy together. Identifying ways to cut back on unnecessary expenses could bring a pleasing result, too.
Libra tomorrow love horoscope:
Wednesday 12th of June 2019
Thinking bigger and bolder about what you want to achieve and who you want at your side can boost levels of excitement and inspiration in your emotional world or one special connection. You're encouraged to broaden your horizons and if you feel inspired to learn, explore or discover, then so too will a loved one or close companion. Embarking upon a learning or mind-broadening experience will be better if done together rather than solo.
Libra yesterday love horoscope:
Monday 10th of June 2019
A sense of responsibility or obligation you have given much time and attention to in other areas of your world could become less of a priority as you accept the need to focus on what or who makes your heart beat faster. However, being just as productive with matters of the heart requires you to be less methodical and more spontaneous. If you need to allow a bit of time to adjust to whatever has shifted slightly and recently in your romantic circumstances, then that could be time well spent.
Virgo Daily Love Horoscope

Virgo today's love horoscope:
Tuesday 11th of June 2019
Might overreacting or responding overly sensitively to a certain situation add to drama or tension unnecessarily? You could believe you're reacting or responding appropriately but taking a step back and being honest about where you may be making assumptions can reveal reasons to feel appreciative or reassured, not defensive. Focus solely on facts, and you'll find them.
Virgo tomorrow love horoscope:
Wednesday 12th of June 2019
What has been vague or on a shaky footing with matters of the heart could come under scrutiny as you feel a stronger need for stability and certainty in your emotional life. This might be the result of starting to 'think bigger' about what you want from a love relationship and how what's ill-defined can benefit from becoming more certain. For some Virgos, it may be time for a relationship to deepen or move to a delightfully new level.
Virgo yesterday love horoscope:
Monday 10th of June 2019
There could be something fascinating and intriguing about the glimpse you receive into your love life future at this time. It's also important that you don't overlook or underestimate the wisdom gained during recent months that is integral to making an accurate assessment of your current love life circumstances. As one romantic or relationship goal becomes more vivid and attainable, you'll be able to give it more of your undivided attention to make it real.

Leo today's love horoscope:
Tuesday 11th of June 2019
Your time and focus could be diverted from your love life or one special connection, and a loved one will likely make it clear if they feel you're taking on too many responsibilities in other areas. If this involves you pursuing a certain aspiration or group effort outside the sphere of your connection, then you may need to be realistic about the demands on your time this will require.
Leo tomorrow love horoscope:
Wednesday 12th of June 2019
You could be aware of how deep feelings and passions could replace uncertainty in your emotional world or one special connection now. If you're a single Leo wishing you shared a deep bond, then you could have options that rely on removing yourself from usual or familiar surroundings. Whether single or attached, travel or exploring new places can boost your romantic prospects wonderfully.
Leo yesterday love horoscope:
Monday 10th of June 2019
You could feel more ambitious regarding affairs of the heart or one special connection but any grand plans that your mind conjurers will need a clearly-defined action plan to support them. Fortunately, there are aspects of your love life's future that appear clear to you. Once you prioritize whatever vision or visions inspire you the most, then you'll be better placed to take the practical steps needed to turn them into something real.

Cancer today's love horoscope:
Tuesday 11th of June 2019
Don't be fearful or suspicious of change emerging in your emotional world or a close relationship. What's shifting or altering has likely needed to do so for some time and can help free you from an aspect of the past or something that has been deeply entrenched in a comfort zone for too long. This could bring balance to a love connection that you've been unable to achieve on your own -and could also be a change you're likely to welcome.
Cancer tomorrow love horoscope:
Wednesday 12th of June 2019
If you or your paramour have struggled to find a work life/love life balance recently, then this could be an issue that might need to become tenser briefly before action can be taken to restore balance. Career responsibilities can't be shirked but remember what all work and no play did to someone named Jack. You and a loved one can help each other to adopt more of a 'work to live' rather than 'live to work' attitude now.
Cancer yesterday love horoscope:
Monday 10th of June 2019
Trying to persuade a loved one or potential partner to accept your point of view could be trickier than you believed it would be. You could feel strongly about a particular matter and discover that the object of your affections feels similarly about their viewpoint. There are far more benefits than disbenefits to bringing this matter in the open. It may be a discussion that must continue at another time, but at least it has commenced authentically and transparently from the outset.

Gemini today's love horoscope:
Tuesday 11th of June 2019
Romantic conversations or exchanges could be prone to misinterpretation, and this might be due to skimming the surface of certain topics rather than engaging in open and honest exchanges. The more upfront you're willing to be, the more likely it will be that a lover or potential partner will reciprocate. Removing any assumptions that might exist on both sides by agreeing to deal only with facts will ensure any discussions remain calm and manageable.
Gemini tomorrow love horoscope:
Wednesday 12th of June 2019
If you're a single Gemini, then you could be increasingly aware of how delightful romantic opportunities probably won't arrive out of the blue or on their own. If you're to enjoy a deeper level of romantic fulfillment, then you may need to be more willing to make yourself available and possibly take someone up on their offer of assistance or support. Regardless of your relationship status, progress with matters of the heart relies on coming from you now.
Gemini yesterday love horoscope:
Monday 10th of June 2019
A harsh fact may need to be faced where your emotional world or one special connection is concerned. However, you have the emotional wherewithal to not only confront what needs to be confronted but also to see a clear way forward to bring the change that your heart has urged you to consider for some time. As one chapter closes, another commences. By seeing a romantic or relationship situation in that way, you're not harsh; you're realistic.
Taurus Daily Love Horoscope

Taurus today's love horoscope:
Tuesday 11th of June 2019
Putting the spark back into a relationship could be surprisingly easily with a bit more two-way willingness to communicate. You may have grown weary with a routine a loved one believed to be necessary and could discover scope exists to inject spontaneity where it's needed. Something you and your paramour regard as tiresome can become fun once again if you put your heads together to share ideas about what constitutes 'fun.'
Taurus tomorrow love horoscope:
Wednesday 12th of June 2019
Certain tedious romantic or relationship routines could drain your energy and enthusiasm, but your vision of your love life future is becoming stronger and deserves as much faith and effort as you can give it. Mundane matters will always need attention, but you're able to draw deeper levels of motivation and inspiration from what's occurring with affairs of the heart now. Whether single or attached, this is a time to be experimental, brave, and aim high!
Taurus yesterday love horoscope:
Monday 10th of June 2019
You have a choice regarding how you react or respond to a romantic relationship challenge that presents itself. Choosing to push aside your signature stubbornness and bringing a helpful level of grounding and practicality to whatever arises is the way to go. The positive spin you put on whatever transpires could also inspire the one you love to do the same. With that mindset working on both sides, this snafu can be nipped in the bud and resolved swiftly.
Aries Daily Love Horoscope

Aries today's love horoscope:
Tuesday 11th of June 2019
You might see a loved one's keenness for you to handle or manage something in your relationship as one-sided. Rather than make your displeasure or concerns known negatively, you can increase your paramour's input and assistance by encouraging a more balanced division of effort. It might be an issue surrounding their confidence that needs to be addressed and overcome first.
Aries tomorrow love horoscope:
Wednesday 12th of June 2019
Your passionate intensity can be powerfully sexy but could require you to show a bit of restraint, especially as you could be at risk of coming on too strong or releasing an avalanche of emotions someone's direction. As much as what you might feel toward a certain person is growing in intensity, romantic or relationship progress relies on your ability to control it.
Aries yesterday love horoscope:
Monday 10th of June 2019
One intriguing idea or vision could come after another, encouraging you to take more than one bold step in the name of love. However, it's important to accept that thoughts or fantasies will need to be replaced with action, even if it's to test the water or viability of one or two cherished love life aspirations. You appear to have grand plans where your emotional world or one special connection is concerned, and there's only one way to find out how realistic these are. Select the vision that inspires you the most and see what some effort brings.
Aquarius Daily Love Horoscope

Aquarius today's love horoscope:
Tuesday 11th of June 2019
It's possible something connected with your emotional world or a love relationship could benefit from a reality check. You may be aware of momentum increasing in a manageable and potentially delightful way, and a wave of optimism and enthusiasm could soon replace any sense of pessimism. However, you're encouraged to slow down briefly to ensure you have an accurate understanding of what's shifting. What's unfolding now could need both of you to steer it.
Aquarius tomorrow love horoscope:
Wednesday 12th of June 2019
Your sense of fun and adventure could be ignited, and as keen as you may be to throw caution to the wind and whisk a loved one away somewhere or embark on a physical or mental journey, a restriction could create a hurdle with plans made now. You might not be able to overcome this hampering influence immediately, but connecting with your ability to improvise can create a very pleasing alternative.
Aquarius yesterday love horoscope:
Monday 10th of June 2019
It could be the intellectual connection that you form or strengthen with a lover or love interest that enhances a feeling of trust within you. With this in place, you could feel more prepared to make yourself vulnerable by opening up to someone close and possibly in ways you haven't done previously, regardless of how long you've known them. You could be aware of how much you have suppressed or refrained from saying, but starting at the very beginning is, as they say, a very good place to start.
Daily Horoscope
Moon Alert
Avoid shopping or important decisions from 11 AM to midnight EDT today (8 AM to 9:15 PM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Libra into Scorpio.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Today the Moon is opposite your sign, which means you have to go more than halfway when dealing with others. Nevertheless, check the Moon Alert above and you will see that most of this day is also a Moon Alert. (Yikes!) Make no important decisions or big purchases!
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Today at work, you might have an urge to make things better or introduce reforms but very likely, it will be like herding cats. That's because most of this day is a Moon Alert, which is a very loosey-goosey situation. Wait until tomorrow.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
During a Moon Alert, one should avoid important decisions and major expenditures; however, it's easy to be creative and think outside of the box! Today this could favour you by enhancing the arts, socializing and playful activities with kids.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
If possible, follow your desire to cocoon at home today because this will feel right. However, avoid disputes about how to do things or improve things, especially this morning because they will simply be heated arguments that amount to nothing.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
This is a fuzzy day. The early morning on the East Coast is not bad; but the Moon Alert begins in BC and lasts all day (8 AM to 9:15 PM PDT.) Oy! Expect delays, shortages and vague confusion. The upside of a Moon Alert is it's a social time and it encourages creativity.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Today the Moon is in your Money House but most of this day is a Moon Alert, which means you should postpone important financial decisions and restrict spending to food, gas and entertainment. You can do your homework. But do not act until the Moon Alert is over.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Today the Moon Alert is in your sign, which is why you may feel adrift and lacking in motivation or direction. It's minor; however, restrict spending to food, gas and entertainment. Don't volunteer for anything important. Don't agree to anything important.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Just tread water today because it's a fuzzy day. Travel, the media, publishing plus medicine and the law are your focus; nevertheless, be smart and wait until today's Moon Alert is over before you make any important decisions.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
This is a wonderful day to schmooze with others, especially female companions. You might also explore goals for the future with someone. Nevertheless, don't agree to anything until the Moon Alert is over. Forewarned is forearmed.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
This is a poor day to make a major decision because of the Moon Alert. (However, on the East Coast, things are okay until 11 AM EDT.) The irony is that if you make a poor decision it will be public and you will have egg on your face. Not good! (Ketchup helps.)
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Today is the day to run away and join the circus. Agree to nothing important because of the Moon Alert. However, because you can think outside of the box, you are full of original ideas! Wait until tomorrow to see if you should act on them.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
You might be focused on taxes, debt, shared property, inheritances and the wealth of your partner or someone else. Discussions about shared responsibilities might also be on the table. Please note: This is a poor day to decide anything or to spend money.
If Your Birthday Is Today
University Professor-clinical psychologist Jordan Peterson (1962) shares your birthday today. You are intelligent, humorous and very quick to change your mood. You are interested in many topics and are very social and friendly. Service to others is your theme this year in terms of responsibilities to family as well as to yourself. Therefore, take care of yourself so that you are a strong resource. Invest in the relationships that you value. Tap into your personal creativity and hobbies.

Q & A with Equine Herbalist, Rachel Kelly
Rachel Kelly is a fully qualified Master Herbalist who graduated from the Irish School of Herbal Medicine in County Laois. Residing in Castledermot, Ireland, Rachel offers consultations and specifically-designed herbal formulas for horses according to their individual needs. At present, Rachel is also working as a tutor with the Irish School of Herbal Medicine and helping to develop a post-graduate course in equine herbal medicine.
What led you to become an equine herbalist?
I started a four year training course in herbal medicine in 2006 with the Irish School of Herbal Medicine. My intention was to do the course for myself and my family at the time.
I had no idea that what I was embarking on would be life-changing—it became a way of life as the course progressed. One of my tutors, world-renowned equine herbalist Helen Begadon, took me on as an apprentice. I have always had a great love of horses and have always had horses in my life–this was the start of me combining my two greatest passions–horses & herbal medicine.
What I do is very unique. I do not sell any ready-made products. Every herbal formula I make up is for the specific horse that I am treating. This is done via iridology and full consultation including diet, medical history etc.
For which types of equine conditions do herbs work best?
I believe so strongly in what I do and have seen so many amazing results from using herbs and a natural whole-food diet. I believe all conditions, both acute and chronic, can be treated with a holistic herbal approach. I also believe herbs are useful for preventing and enhancing all aspects of equine health. (With the exception of some trauma-emergency medicine but herbs and diet can be an asset in the healing process).
Are there any herbs that are good to give for preventative measures or overall well-being?
First and foremost, diet is the key to a healthy body whether you are human or equine. Secondly, lifestyle is very important—such as how we keep our horses. Are they stabled 20 hours a day? Are they subjected to a lot of stress? Are you over-using medication? Are you feeding high-sugar, high-starch, processed feeds, etc?
Natural whole food can be as healing and health-enhancing as any herbs, and being mindful of what we are feeding our horses is the most important step to building a healthy foundation towards our horses' health and well-being.
But yes there are foods and herbs that we can incorporate into the equine diet for overall well-being– anything that is rich in live enzymes, like green, leafy vegetables, sprouted seeds, celery, carrots, kelp, sea salt, sea vegetables, rosehips, garlic, and unfiltered organic cider vinegar. I believe in keeping our horses as naturally as possible and letting them live in the outdoors in a herd situation or at least with one other horse for companion.
Are there any situations in which herbs should not be used with a horse?
Some herbs (such as Valerian) are banned/prohibited substances in equestrian sports and should not be used in competition. Also, herb/ drug interactions can happen, so it's important that if your horse is on any medication, you are aware of the fact that certain herbs may inhibit and/or reduce the required effect of the medication.
Apart from that, I believe diet and herbs will give the body what it requires to cleanse, nourish and heal itself.
How long does it take to see the effects of an herb with horses?
I think this depends on the situation–really every horse is so unique and every condition varies from horse to horse. It also depends upon the owner. Are they willing to commit to an herbal regime?
I've seen chronic head-shaking turn around in one month and chronic tying-up cleared in two days. I've also seen very dangerous nervous system problems start to turn around in as little as 3 days, and then another horse took 8 weeks. Remember, herbs are working on a physical and emotional level–cleansing organs, nourishing the body, and also balancing and supporting.
How can horse owners learn more about using herbs with their horses?
It's very simple really. It's all about educating ourselves on what we are putting into our horse's body and how we are making them live. Know the side effects of medications and seek herbal alternatives if possible.
I think we also need the basic knowledge of how our horse's digestive system works and we need to respect that. They are continuous grazers and need high-fiber, low-sugar forage in front of them 24/7.
We need to stop putting our horse's health in other people's hands– i.e. feed and supplement companies and the pharmaceutical industry.
For more information on herbs for horses, see Rachel's website. You can also join Equine Herbalist on Facebook.
