Bugs and More Bugs
Just when homeowners were getting used to dealing with boxelder bugs and multicolored Asian lady beetles invading the house in the fall, now we have more company. The latest additions (more nonnative introductions) are the brown marmorated stinkbug and kudzu bug.
The brown marmorated stinkbug was first detected in the US in 2001, and in NC in 2009. This Asian stink bug feeds on a variety of plants in the landscape, vegetable garden and fruit trees. Perhaps the biggest problem for homeowners is the overwintering behavior in which the bugs may collect in large numbers, seeking shelter in homes and structures, similar to the multicolored Asian lady beetle. They don't harm people, but can give off an unpleasant odor when crushed or vacuumed. They may start collecting on the side of the house when the weather begins to cool in late September, through October.
The kudzu bug, also known as the bean plataspid, lablab bug, or globular stink bug, was reported in Georgia in 2009. By 2011 it was found in most of North Carolina. They feed on plants in the legume family, including kudzu, and are a potential pest to soybean crops. Homes near large patches of kudzu or soybean fields will be most likely to experience the home invasions in the fall
Unfortunately, for all of these bugs, pesticides are of limited use. Outdoor pesticides, containing a pyrethroids, sprayed on a house may be somewhat helpful, but the residual effectiveness of the chemical will be short. Creating a physical barrier to their entrance into the house is the best preventative

Time Bandits (UK - BD RB)
Chris takes a look at the new Blu-ray release of the Terry Gilliam fantasy film
Time Bandits tells the story of a group of little people who steal a map of all of the known holes in the fabric of the universe from their former employer, the Supreme Being. This allows them to travel to any point in time, an advantage they plan to use to get rich by stealing from some of history's wealthiest individuals. Along the way they accidentally wind up in the bedroom of eleven-year-old Kevin, an intelligent, thoughtful boy who is largely ignored by his materialistic game-show-loving parents. Kevin joins the gang on their adventures in time, during which they meet historical figures such as Napoleon Bonaparte, Robin Hood, and Agamemnon, and journey all the way to the 'Time of Legends' where they search for the mythical 'Most Fabulous Object in the World'. However, this turns out to be a trap set by Evil, who wishes to use the map to overthrow the Supreme Being.
I can vividly remember renting Time Bandits from the video store many, many times as a kid, but prior to reviewing Optimum's Blu-ray back in 2009 I hadn't seen the film in years. The last time I watched the film was for said review, so I came into this new Arrow Blu-ray presentation fairly fresh. The movie is every bit as strange as I remember, but still has a certain charm to it in spite of the incredibly out-there plot and cast of eccentric little people. The performances from David Rappaport, Kenny Baker and the rest of the gang are extremely endearing, and the central performance from young Craig Warnock is very solid. The mix of Python actors and big-name stars works well, and although Sean Connery is by far the most famous person in the film I enjoyed seeing people like Jim Broadbent and Ian Holm in earlier roles (I had no idea who they were as a kid). However, the performance I remember most fondly was that of David Warner, and he still pretty much steals the show. With that said, I didn't enjoy the film as much as I did when I was a child, but perhaps it's because I lack the imagination of youth (this is something Gilliam has touched upon in interviews). Even so, I think I actually enjoyed it more on this viewing than I did the last time out and it's still a great family feature.
Arrow provides a 1.85:1 widescreen transfer (1080/24p AVC) derived from a new 2K master approved by Terry Gilliam himself. As much as the previous Blu-ray release was a step up from the various DVDs, this disc offers another leap in the quality stakes. The biggest problem I had with the older Blu-ray was the presence of film artefacts, but they have been all-but eliminated for this release. While the image isn't really any more detailed than the previous BD the new scan offers other benefits, such as a more natural grain structure for a more filmic look. Colour is also better than the previous effort, with more balanced, natural tones and a brighter overall appearance. Gone is the brownish-yellow cast that afflicted the Optimum BD, which proves to be especially beneficial for flesh tones. Contrast is also improved, as is brightness, which makes for a more vibrant image. Blacks are still more brown than true black, but they are improved over the Optimum disc. The framing is also slightly different, presenting a little more picture information to the sides of the frame without really losing anything at the top and bottom (which suggests that the Optimum Blu-ray was perhaps zoomed a little). Four years ago I said that Optimum's Blu-ray release was likely to be the best looking version of Time Bandits we'd see for some time. Well, that time is now, as this new release is a visual improvement over the older disc in every respect and another solid effort from Arrow.
There are two audio tracks on the disc: DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 and LPCM 2.0 Stereo. This is a another improvement over Optimum's Blu-ray, which only offered a a lossy Dolby Digital 5.1 option to support its LPCM track. I decided to check out the the remix for the purposes of this review, and for the most part it's actually not too bad. The quality of the original elements is the limiting factor here, with a slight lack of fidelity readily apparent for the entirety of the running time. This is most noticeable with the dialogue, which sounds quite hollow at times, but thankfully it never strays into unintelligible territory. Some of the effects are also a little on the tinny side and suffer from the occasional bit of reverb, but that's almost to be expected given the age of the source. The front of the soundstage isn't particularly wide, nor is the mix terribly dynamic, but the rears are employed to good effect for atmospherics and distribution of the score. Of course surround utilisation is nothing like as finessed as a modern sound mix, with localisation hard to pin down, but applause, screams, howling wind, growls and the like all serve to open things up some (and the last ten minutes or so are a flurry of activity). There isn't a lot of low end, but the sub does briefly spring to life whenever the Supreme Being appears and again when the gang enters the Time of Legends. All things considered this is a respectable remix given what they had to work with.
The LPCM track is surprisingly wide for a 2.0 Stereo effort, but it obviously has all of the limitations of the surround track. Still, it's great that Arrow has included the original mix for the audio purists, as this is something that's often overlooked.
Arow has put together an interesting collection of bonus material for this release, the vast majority of which is new. Unfortunately the commentary track from the DVD is nowhere to be found, but I understand this is because of rights issues.
- Chasing Time Bandits: This new twenty minute interview with director Terry Gilliam touches on all aspects of the filmmaking process, including the original story idea, scriptwriting, casting, production, screenings, marketing, critical reception, and legacy.
- Writing the Film That Dares Not Speak Its Name: In this sixteen minute featurette Michael Palin discusses the film's origins, working with Terry Gilliam, the writing process, the production, George Harrison's involvement, the film's unique perspective, and the controversial ending.
- The Effects of Time Bandits: This fifteen minute interview with Kent Houston covers the early days of the Peerless Camera Company (which Gilliam started for the work on this film), the emergence of motion control systems for animation, the optical effects process, matte paintings, forced perspective and many of the other tricks used to achieve the required effects.
- Playing Evil: The fabulous David Warner speaks about his involvement in the production for a little over eight minutes. He discusses his fondness for Gilliam and the Pythons, how he got the role, his costume, working with Terry Gilliam and Ralph Richardson, on-set atmosphere and more.
- The Costumes of Time Bandits: James Acheson discusses the film's costume design, showing some of his original concept drawing for the various characters. He shares his remembrances of working on the film
- The Look of Time Bandits: Milly Burns spends around ten minutes talking about her involvement with the film, touching on how she originally became attached to the production, working with Terry Gilliam, set-building, location shooting,
- From Script to Screen: This short featurette focusses on the way in which a film develops from the original shooting script through to the completed work. It touches on things like the script breakdown and reference material, before going on to discuss specific elements of the shoot as related to the script.
- Trailer: The film's theatrical trailer is one of the strangest I've ever seen. In it, Michael Palin has an 'argument' with the eighties voice-over guy. It's all very 'Pythonesque'.
- Restoration Demonstration: This short little featurette provides a comparison between the untouched elements and the restored footage. The original materials as scanned were in a pretty bad way, which makes the condition of the final product all the more interesting. Part of me wonders if this featurette came about as a response to some of Arrow's detractors, but whatever the reasons behind it I welcome its inclusion and would like to see similar features on all of their discs (or at the very least complete disclosure of the source of the materials they use, even when provided by a third party).
Time Bandits is a perfect example of a film that has gone up and down in my estimation at different points in my life. I loved the film as a child, but when I reviewed the last Blu-ray release I wasn't quite as keen. Watching it again for this new release in the company of my ten-year-old niece brought back memories of what it was like to view through more innocent eyes, which in turn had a positive effect on my enjoyment. Technically the disc is a definite improvement over the old Optimum effort, particularly in the video department where the new 2K restoration really pays dividends. I also appreciated the new extras, as they proved to be both entertaining and informative (and it's always nice when a company takes the time to produce new content). Of course the big question is whether or not it's worth the upgrade if you own the old disc. For the casual viewer I'm not so sure, but it's a very worthy purchase for fans and those who demand the very best audio-visual quality from their films. One thing's for sure though: the respect that Arrow pays to its catalogue releases puts most major film studios to shame. Long may it continue.

Valentine's Day ... it is upon us again ... Thursday, Feb. 14 ... this coming week, to be exact �� for those who have pushed the thought out of their minds completely.
It's a greeting-card-company-induced day filled with expectations in the hearts and minds of at least half the population. Or, is it?
The Sun asked a sampling of the South Walton population what their ideal Valentine's Day would look like. Would you be happy with a nice card? Roses? Dinner out? Or, would a couple's massage make your day? The responses, which came mostly from women (except one brave soul) varied from sweet to sappy to silly.
Sandestin resident Peggy Lillie's vision of a perfect Valentine's Day would begin with cappuccinos at sunrise on our beautiful beach with her two Pomeranians (they do have their beach permits), and her wonderful husband.
Seagrove's Susan Benton already has a plan and is working it. "I am headed to the mountains of east Tennessee with my husband for delicious foothills cuisine, hiking, and a family celebration; so this Valentine's week could not be more perfect!" she gushed.
Grand Boulevard's Stacey Brady envisions arriving home to flowers and a loving card, followed by a romantic candlelit dinner and good bottle of wine shared with hubby Mike Brady at Beachwalk Cafe at Henderson Park Inn. "It's a classic!" she said.
Blue Mountain Beach resident and singing bartender Redd Vizard is one happy girl who is already content with life just the way it is now. "I got my ideal Valentine almost 14 years ago when I met Paul at a movie premiere party. The only gift I want is to spend the rest of my life with him. Add a little champagne into the mix � Perfect!" she said.
Alaqua's Laurie Hood is also a happy lady. "I already received my special gift," she said. "My 7-year-old son asked me to be his date for his Valentines Day Dance!"
Mack Bayou's Lynn Wesson's perfect Valentine's Day would be to enjoy a fabulous meal with all her children and grandchildren at the same table. "My three boys, my three beautiful daughters-in-law and, especially, my three magnificent grandchildren. However, they live in three different states. So I settle for gathering up and sending them Valentine goodies," she said.
Santa Rosa Beach interior decorator Kenda Jordan has an altruistic approach to the day. "I see a perfect Valentine's Day as a day without pain or sickness, hunger or thirst, hatred or injustice. It would be a day spent in perfect love, with no expectations or obligation. It would be a day spent living with the heart of God," she said.
Melanie Barrett and her husband have a standing tradition for the day: "Spending the weekend in Jacksonville at the beach, staying at the Quality Inn Suites, and having dinner at Casa Marina, which opened its doors in Jacksonville at the beach in 1925. This has been our thing to do for several years on Valentine's Day."
The lone male responder, Eastern Lake's Lane Rees's perfect Valentine's Day might be summed up as personal quality time. "I would wish for a whole day and night with Brenda � no meetings, no emails, etc., � ending with dinner overlooking Eastern Lake and the Gulf," he said.
Public relations lady Madra McDonald also is wishing for a day without gadgets. She envisions a relaxing day and evening with her husband spent restaurant hopping at their favorite spots sans their smart phones. "And, maybe a pedicure and massage for me!" she added.
Sandestin's Mary Damroth's formula for a perfect day is simple: "Chocolate cake, good wine and friends � but, not in that order!"
Santa Rosa Beach's Meg Warrington has visions of romance for her perfect day. "Roses, dinner, dancing, holding hands, looking into each other's eyes, and a big smooch good night," she says dreamily.
However, when Rosemary Beach Realtor Linda Miller dreams, she dreams really big. Her perfect Valentine's Day? Without skipping a beat or needing much thought at all, she quips, "George Clooney picks me up and we fly off in his private jet to Paris for the weekend."
Here's hoping all your Valentine's Day wishes come true. And, Linda, if yours comes true, call me!

the "Filipino Veterans Equity Act of 2008"
On September 23, 2008, the House passed H.R. 6897, the "Filipino Veterans Equity Act of 2008," by a 392-23 vote. The legislation would provide one-time compensation payments to Filipinos who fought for the United States during World War II.
Provisions of interest to the Social Security Administration are described below.
• Would authorize $198 million to pay eligible World War II era Filipino veterans a one-time sum of $9,000. Eligible veterans who have become U.S. citizens would receive $15,000. In all cases, the veterans would be required to submit an application and necessary proofs to the Department of Veterans Affairs.
• Would exclude such payments made to individuals living outside the United States from affecting eligibility to special benefits for certain World War II veterans (Title VIII of the Social Security Act). 1
1 The bill does not include a similar exclusion for SSI purposes for Filipino veterans living in the United States.

No, you are merely asking. Not telling all the tantric tradition teachings are wrong (as in only one-to-one empowermnts/lungs/DI/PO/jenangs/wangs/etc. are valid not one-to-many) and scale (as in space) should be the same as dimension (time: present vs. past/future) because I have a little theory and I'll take Vajrayana/Dzogchen empowermnts/lungs/DI/etc. but will dismiss their historic systems & masters & samayas and invent my own framework and religion and avoid answering rebuttals and claim to be uniquely right. There is a huge difference that is very basic and easy to see.Fa Dao wrote:I dont think Astus is trying to bust anybody's chops here. I too am curious as to how this works. Something happened when I watched Rinpoche in that last transmission. I dont fully understand it and cant adequately describe it. I get the whole radio transmission thing...makes sense to me. What I want to know is how does he do that? Is it something that one learns to do or what?
As to your question on the mechanics of how a master creates his state for transmitting DI and how it works, you need to experience first being a successful recipient then progress greatly to being a successful master authorized by enlightened beings to dispense DI and even then partly know as only a fully enlightened buddha has complete omniscience on how everything is.
Wanting to reduce the process to a schemata of it's mechanics is a dead-end. As ChNNR often says: "Westerners think everything is in techniques and Tibetans don't seem to understand this and if we only extract the essence of their techniques, they are mostly ignorant of(!), then we can progress much faster than them! Because of this mistaken way of thinking, still the most realized people are the 'backward' traditional Tibetan practitioners not the 'clever advanced' westerners!" So let's stop fooling ourselves by thinking 'only I know best' and let me boil down their techniques into my funny little science. Let's instead just learn from and follow our proven gurus' instructions. Mechanics of DI (silly reduction of) = dead-end. You can not back-engineer Dharmakaya.
But there is a lot to learn and one should continue to learn a lineage's teachings from it's masters because there are reasons for the order of the teachings. For example ChNNR and other masters say the ones amongst you here who have experienced it will also help your quest, not just the master. This truth is told to boost our confidence and is basically to do with how mandalas work in Nirmanakaya and Samoghakaya as again Dharmakaya is beyond anyway. But all is lumped as one in this thread in error. Finally more powerful and faster and easier than concepts is trusting and implementing the gurus' pithy instructions.

The Perth Bicycle Network is a network of cycling routes comprising of on-road, path and end-of-trip infrastructure.
The PBN is coordinated by the Department of Transport and forms part of a strategic and integrated transport network being developed for our city, during this time of incredible growth.
The majority of the network belongs to Local Government, and grant funding can be obtained for local cycling infrastructure (or network planning) through the Department of Transport's PBN Grants Program.
2012-13 Grants program
Successful grant applications in the 2012-13 PBN Grants program have been awarded.
A total of 37 projects (19 Local Governments) will be undertaken in the $2m program.
19.1km (14.2km paths and 4.9km bicycle lanes) of network infrastructure is being generated from the funding.
Awarded project details can be downloaded here.
These projects are required by a date this financial year (couldn't locate the exact one), so there isn't much time for them to be completed.
I've put this data into GoogleMaps:
I need your help to identify if the projects are complete, or to contact Local Government asking when they will be completed. Post to this forum and I will update the GoogleMap. Clicking on each item in the GoogleMap shows the Local Council and the work being undertaken.
Why is this important? Last year only $715K of $1M was awarded to completed projects. This means that $285K of grant money was not spent. As the grant money is awarded basically on a 1-1 basis (ie DoT matches $1 to the Local Government $1), this is in real terms a loss of $570K of budgeted funds not being spent on PBN grants.
If we do the sums for this year, and given previous trends, potentially $1,140K is not going to be spent on PBN funding of the $4M Budgeted funds (ie $2M from DoT and $2M from Local Government). Scary isn't it, and hence why it is important to ensure Local Government is going ahead with the PBN grants. $1,140K is roughly 11km of cycle paths assuming it takes around $100K per km to build.

I am an older student and have one semester under my belt so far at law school. I can tell you from my first impressions, that I bet 50% of my incoming class will not be doing a solo practice ever. I had a very successful business for 12 years, I survived several bad economies, high interest rates, and a step learning curve (as I was a premed student in undergrad and had no business training at all), but I realized that all the training in world wouldn't have meant crap if you didn't have the psychology for it.
Do you think that getting an ABA JD and then an online LLM would help going solo?Would it impress clients and give extra knowledge? Or would it be a waste of funds?
The most common way to riches and the most common way to bankruptcy or financial ruin both travel through the same intersection: small business ownership. Many people on this thread are trying to offer sound advice based on real-world experience. (At least I am, but maybe everyone else is making crap up) Don't be discouraged by the advice, but don't disregard the advice just because you think I am too chicken to open my own firm. Investing in a down market can be a great strategy, if you have the capital to establish a good system and foundation. If you want to ride the wave by working harder than everyone else, you have to have a large amount of clients to generate enough cash-flow to run a healthy business. And once again, if you want to get a loan for your new firm and take advantage of the amazing interest rates, you have to remember that its all about cash flow or collateral. Courage, goodwill, contacts, determination, or a snazzy law degree won't mean crap.

Preposterous as it might have once sounded, quarterback Matt Leinart finds himself suddenly having much in common with Jeff Tuel.
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) ? Preposterous as it might have once sounded, quarterback Matt Leinart finds himself suddenly having much in common with Jeff Tuel.
Upon arriving in Buffalo last weekend for what could be a last chance at resurrecting his career, the 2004 Heisman Trophy winner offered Tuel ? an undrafted rookie out of Washington State ? advice on how to prepare for the possibility of being the Bills' opening-day starter.
"With football, it's crazy," Leinart said. "I told him, 'Hey, in this league, anything can happen. You always have to stay ready.'"
Leinart spoke from experience. It wasn't lost on the former Southern California star that he could have been referring to his own seven-year career that's gone from the promise of first-round-draft-pick potential, to spending nearly the entire offseason wondering if he still has an NFL future.
"Oh yeah, I've seen the worst in this league. And I've seen some pretty good highs," Leinart said. "So I've been through a lot."
If not for injuries sidelining the Bills' two top quarterbacks, rookie EJ Manuel (left knee) and veteran Kevin Kolb (concussion), Leinart might still have been waiting by the phone.
Instead, after signing with Buffalo on Sunday, Leinart will have what's essentially a one-time tryout to compete for a backup spot as the Bills (2-1) close the preseason against Detroit (2-1) Thursday. Tuel is expected to get limited playing time because the Bills are wary of having yet another quarterback hurt before opening against New England on Sept. 8.
That means Leinart and Thaddeus Lewis, who was acquired Sunday in a trade with Detroit, will get the majority of snaps after only two days of practice and a walkthrough.
"I'm just excited to be here, obviously, and humbled and just thankful for the opportunity," said Leinart, who is on his third team in as many seasons. "For me, at this point, I don't feel like there's anything to lose. That's exciting because I've had a lot of pressure over the years."
The pressure of expectations along with injuries, coaching changes, loss of confidence and bad timing have combined to derail Leinart's career. He was drafted 10th overall in 2006 by Arizona after a 37-2 record at USC.
Leinart started 16 games his first two seasons in Arizona before being sidelined by a broken left collarbone in 2007. He spent his final two seasons with the Cardinals backing up Kurt Warner.
Seeking a fresh start, he signed with Houston in 2010, where misfortune struck Leinart the following year. Taking over a playoff-bound Texans team that was off to a 7-3 start, Leinart broke his collarbone in the first half of his first game in place of injured starter Matt Schaub.
"Talk about lows. That was one of the toughest times of my career," he said. "It was like, 'Why? Like this is the opportunity I've been waiting for two, three years.' And it was just taken away from me like that."
Leinart spent last season in Oakland, where he appeared in two games splitting backup duties with Terrelle Pryor.
In Buffalo, Leinart has no guarantees after Thursday. Tuel is penciled in to start the opener, though the Bills haven't ruled out Manuel being ready to play. Kolb is out indefinitely, which opens a spot Leinart could fill once the team makes its final cuts by Saturday.
Coach Doug Marrone said it's too early to make any determinations regarding Leinart or Lewis.
"I really don't know until I see them and evaluate them," Marrone said, noting he'll judge Leinart on how he performs in Buffalo without preconceptions. "You go in there and say: 'Whatever has happened in the past is in the past. Here's an opportunity ? take advantage of it.'"
Marrone was with New Orleans in 2006, when the Saints evaluated Leinart as a potential draft pick. And Leinart is familiar with Bills offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett. The two share common friends, and Hackett's father, former Trojans coach Paul Hackett, recruited Leinart to play at USC.
"Obviously, I know nothing is guaranteed ever," Leinart said. "I know there's been times where I haven't performed well. But I'm still capable, and I still know I can do it."
The Lions are approaching the game seeking to settle starting jobs on the right side of their offensive line. Coach Jim Schwartz has yet to say whether tackle Jason Fox and rookie guard Larry Warford have solidified the two spots.
Linebacker Chris White will make his Lions' debut after the Bills traded the reserve to Detroit to acquire Lewis.
"That's going to be pretty crazy," said White, Buffalo's 2011 sixth-round draft pick. "It's definitely going to be strange playing against all my teammates. But I'm going to go out there and give it my all."

I remember the swimming safety rules. One of the first was do not jump in the water to try to save someone who is drowning.
The reason?
In their panic, they will latch onto you and drag you down with them.
The instructors went through dramatizations. One would pretend to drown, the other would jump in to "save" them and be promptly pulled under by the flailing arms of the "drowning" one.
After this graphic presentation, the instructors would show us the better way. Take a pole they said, as they lifted one of the long poles on the side of the pool, and extend it to the drowning person. Remain on the side of the pool, on dry concrete, while you do this. They extended the pole to their "drowning" colleague who reached out for it and was pulled to the side of the pool without mishap.
It was a great lesson in how to help and survive the act of helping. It would work at any well-equipped pool when the drowning person was still above water.
However, what do you do when you're at a lake and the drowning one is too far away for poles and you don't have a pole anyway? Do you just stand there and let them drown?
I suppose a wise person would always have a pole of some sort with them when they swim. That way, they could, at least theoretically, swim out to the person in trouble, extend the pole and then pull them back to safety. Of course, a panicky person is perfectly capable of coming up the pole at you and overwhelming you, anyway.
People are only tenuously at home in water. It's not our natural habitat. Everything we do there is in some way a work-around, and those work-arounds can fall apart and leave us in trouble all too easily.
Drowning is evidently a quiet affair for those who observe it. People can drown right beside us in the water and we may not know it until it's too late.
All these facts converged on Elizabeth Duffy, who blogs about perspectives on Catholic life, family and culture here at Patheos, when she was enjoying an early-summer swimming outing with her kids. Elizabeth nearly drowned, and her young son along with her. She was trying to rescue her child and his panicky latching onto her almost took them both out. Meanwhile, her other children continued to play, unaware that Mom and brother were in such peril.It's a gripping read about something we all hope never happens to us. The remarkable thing is the way Elizabeth rose above the panic and thought her way out of this situation. Her post says in part:
I could see that my boy had stopped moving in any direction and was barely keeping his head afloat. Quickly, I overcame the cold, and dove under to swim out to him. I thought I would be able to latch him onto my shoulders and walk him in, but I had not anticipated the water being over my head where he was treading.
As expected, when I reached him, he latched onto me, but walking in to shallower water was not going to be possible. Nor was swimming, as his weight on me prevented my getting above water for a breath. I would have told him to turn on his back and kick towards shore, but I couldn't give him any instruction. Each time I opened my mouth, it filled with water.
This is how tragedy happens. I was under water. I couldn't communicate. The boy couldn't swim. The other kids were stranded on a raft in rough water. The five-year-old was unsupervised on the shore, and no one was around. (Read the rest here.)

It sure is HOT in Texas right now, and it's not helping that Conservation Puppy-in-Training Ranger is on FIRE!! My little boy is growing up, and his potential is also growing in leaps and bounds. It is very important that our dogs are acclimated to the heat and humidity here in Texas, as it will be very useful later on when they are working in the field and make them less susceptible to heat related problems.
We take a lot of precautions to make sure our dogs are never at risk for heatstroke. Working during the heat of the day is nearly impossible for any length of time, so training right now is limited to mornings and evenings. Water is available at al times of course and here on the farm where Ranger is growing up there are several ponds that he is able to cool off in. We also started using these fantastic Swamp Coolers that Backcountry K9 generously donated to us (along with some life jackets!) which are nice to have on hand if necessary. The risks are very real for both people and animals, and all pet owners need to be extra careful right now.
Older animals do not tolerate the heat like their younger counterparts do, and in my household our oldest canine friend started going downhill these last few months. If you remember my very first blog, we lost one of our old Pointers, Kammo, in April, which left us with Purdy the geriatric Pointer-mix, Riley the Golden Retriever, Tank the Frenchie and of course, Ranger. Well, after saying for many years that Purdy was like the Energizer Bunny, she finally started to show her 15 years of age. She also developed a heart condition in the last month, and despite every effort to medicate, feed, and spoil, it was time for us to say goodbye to our Matriarch.
Many of you will sympathize with me and have had to say goodbye to a beloved animal or person. We knew we had only days left with Miss Purdy, and we tried to keep her comfortable and I took her on as many walks as her frail body could take. She always loved walking and swimming in the ponds, but more recently she started having problems swimming and had nearly drowned several times. By now she was content to just lie by the waters edge, her eyes having lost much of the sparkle they always had.
On Saturday morning we woke up and realized it was time to help Purdy cross the Rainbow Bridge. My husband, daughter and I all said our goodbyes, and I held her head and stroked her beautiful black fur while she fell asleep for the last time. It was probably the hardest thing I have ever had to do, but there was never any doubt that it was the right time.
Purdy was born in South Africa and spent her glory days chasing monkeys and antelope through the forests. Her ashes will be traveling with me to South Africa in September, where my husband plans to sprinkle them in the same forest she used to run in.
My trip to South Africa for the whole month of September will be full of adventures. I will be visiting the highly esteemed Cheetah Conservation Fund in Namibia to see their Livestock Guardian Dog Program as well as some new cheetah scat detection dogs they have just acquired! I also hope to visit with Green Dogs Conservation based in South Africa to meet their Livestock Guardian Dogs and Conservation K9's that are being trained for so many valuable jobs related to Wildlife Conservation… plus they have PUPPIES right now.)
My next blog will be full of great photos and adventures from my Africa trip, and I cannot wait to tell you all about it. In the meantime, please take some time to "like" us and share this wonderful cause on Facebook or check out our Website… we appreciate everyone's support so far, particularly our wonderful sponsors and donors. This was a great month for us and we got some great gear for the dogs.
EzyDog donated us some awesome harnesses that will be great for working the dogs in the field. We also had a beautiful commissioned portrait of Conservation K9 "Bea" donated to us by Melissa King from Pawblo Picasso (great name right!) that we plan on using for various fundraising efforts! You can see the painting and read Melissa's blog HERE.

Fall for Olive Green
Consider the olive. Bold, fruity, elegant, and sophisticated. An emblem of peace and a symbol of health. It's one of those versatile colors that can accommodate a range of styles depending on how it's used and what it's paired with. From fresh and funky to dark and dramatic, here is some inspiration to get you thinking about olive green in a whole new way.
Far from the drab olive popularized in 60s and 70s decor, the new olive greens are surprisingly vivid and energizing. Here are some of our favorite hues:
- Benjamin Moore's Brookside Moss (2145-30) is a light, modern olive that would look fresh and clean against bright white trim or paired with a pale blue such as Gossamer Blue (2123-40).
- Glidden's Truly Olive is a deep, warm olive that would look sophisticated in a living or dining room. The yellow undertones of Spanish Olive, on the other hand, would be calm and serene paired with white linens and natural fiber accents.
- Ralph Lauren's Olive Tree (VM102) is a dramatic brownish-olive that would make a stunning backdrop to well-worn leather with red accents or tribal prints. Consider it for a small space such as a nook, study, or accent wall.
- Sherwin-William's High Strung (6705) is a bold yellow-olive that would brighten up a kitchen or add whimsy to child's room.
- Pratt and Lambert's Thyme Green (1662) is a soft gray-olive that would complement cream and warm wood tones in a more traditional setting.

After Dempsey's Son Uses Computer, DoD Issues Directive: 'I SUCK WEENER'
THE PENTAGON – Many service members were scratching their heads Monday after receiving a cryptic new directive from the office of Gen. Martin Dempsey, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Coincidentally, Dempsey's teenage son Corey, currently grounded and without car keys after receiving a D in Poli Sci, visited his father's office the same morning. According to sources, the rebellious youth took the opportunity of his father visiting the restroom to check his email on the general's workstation.
Shortly afterward, all general officer-level commands received the directive, entitled "I SUCK WEENER [sic] SO HARD." Officially, the issued guidance is known as DoD Directive 6969.LOL.
"I mean, we'll go ahead and lean forward," said Gen. Lloyd J. Austin, commander of U.S. Central Command. "But I'm finding it hard to interpret some of the Chief's new guidance. How does 'I AM A GAY HUMP ME IN THE HOMOBUTT LOLZ' translate into meaningful policy shifts? I guess I'm just going to have to call his office and ask, but I don't want to sound stupid."
Lieutenant General Robert Caslen, Superintendant of West Point, has his own theory.
"Maybe it's more of a Leader Development thing for us brass types," he told reporters while searching Google for the definition of 'lolfagatron.' "Maybe it's testing us to see how we interpret and implement this new policy. I mean, I went to West Point, so I get it. But you can see how a guy who went to a low-rate community college like Texas Tech might misconstrue something like 'I LOVE DRINKING MY OWN PEE HAHAHA!!11!!' and then the Chief will know that guy isn't cut out for command."
"This part in particular is hard for me to understand," complained Maj. Dennis Carbone, aide-de-camp to General Mark A. Clark, commander of MARSOC. "What the hell does he mean when he just repeats 'NUTSACK NUTSACK NUTSACK' for almost half a page? Is that supposed to be emphasis on that one point? Or is it a copy-paste error? I don't want to show my ass and ask the Pentagon, but I'm almost scared not to."
"The last time we had a copy-paste error from the Chief, nobody had the balls to point it out, and now we're letting women into combat units," he added. "Nobody wants that horrible mistake to happen again."
"I, for one, am happy to implement this new policy and have no problems with it," insisted Command Sgt. Maj. Mantis Toboggan, the senior enlisted leader of Pacific Command. "How can you not 'get' the Chief's new words of wisdom. Only a bad leader, improperly developed and mentored, fails to understand clear Commander's Intent. Look at this part," he said, pointing to a specific section:
"That right there is clear as daylight," Toboggan said, before leaving to pass the guidance on to his soldiers.

Charles 'Wide Neck' McDowell leads USO Tour request voting
ARLINGTON, Va. — After weeks of neck-and-neck voting, Charles "Wide Neck" McDowell has pulled ahead of adult film actress Riley Reid as the most requested USO star for an upcoming international tour, sources confirmed today.
Service members from throughout the military placed more than 645,000 votes for McDowell and 320,000 for Reid this month following McDowell's fame after his mugshot went viral.
"This is the kind of guy that everyone has necks-level love for," commented Andrew Green, a specialist with the 82nd Airborne Division. "Soldiers across the world are coming together and neckworking to bring this god to bless our troops and potentially end racism."
Though the voting does play a large role for the USO in selecting and funding the star, many more factors come into play before booking can actually begin.
"We sent someone down to Charles' neck of the woods in Florida where he is currently training for his MMA debut. But despite his schedule he seemed interested, and we will discuss more necks week," said Robert Hales, booking agent for the USO.
Hales did show some hesitation about bringing McDowell along for the European and Middle East tour starting next March.
"I want to give the troops what they have requested, but they're in for a shock as soon as they see his neck is normal and his head is just tiny," he said.
Reid volunteered to go on the tour for free if McDowell decided to attend.
"No lie, wide neck, a go pro, and me could trade his 15 min of fame to 15 min of bliss," she tweeted.
Florida authorities have also voiced their full-throated support for McDowell to give back to the troops, offering to count it as community service and allowing him to travel internationally. Currently out on bail, McDowell has been capitalizing on his fame by appearing on MTV's show "Necks," singing in a feature of Ariana Grande's "Thank You, Necks" hit song, and swallowing watermelons whole for five dollars in Orlando. Hopes are Ol' Saint Neck could travel by Christmas.
Navy pranks Army with 17 years of sustained land-based combat just before Army-Navy game
PHILADELPHIA — Midshipmen carried on a long tradition of friendly hijinks just before their collegiate rivalry game by pranking Army with 17 years of sustained land-based combat to just "get in their heads" before the big game today.
"We thought, what if these guys who aren't old enough to drink figure out they've dedicated their futures to sprawling forever wars?" said Midshipman Michael Nelson, the senior leading the prank. "Who could mimic the tactics of war for screaming football fans? Once they hold the knowledge that blood and sacrifice will never accomplish the political ends we call victory, they'll never be able to focus on the game. Navy Wins! Dude, we pwned them good."
"Plus, after that thing with the Air Force Falcon, we didn't want to touch animals." added Nelson.
Nelson got the idea for the hilarious prank while making an Army-Navy rivalry video in his room in Bancroft Hall.
"We ran out of gay jokes, and I was thinking about getting stationed in Oahu with my hot first wife while West Point's players were going to be leading pointless presence patrols on a route called futility. That's when I realized that it was the perfect prank!" he said.
Darnell Woolfolk, West Point's starting running back, fell victim to the hijinks late Friday night when his roommate's sort of hot cousin called. Little did he know she was working for Team Navy and would subtly let him know that win or lose, he could look forward to multiple rotations in the same wars his father fought.
"I was really pumped up for the game." Said Woolfolk. "I was listening to Future and thinking about crushing Navy. Then I slowly started thinking about the sacrifices I was making for an American populace that grows further disconnected and disinterested in what we say we're fighting for. I immediately snuck into Washington Hall to eat spaghetti on ice cream from our special athlete refrigerators."
"It doesn't matter," Woolfolk added, staring into an existential void of multiple deployments, football-induced brain injuries, and strawberry ice cream. "None of it matters anymore."
As a battered copy of the 'The Quaker Guide to Gaining Conscientious Objector Status" circulated around the student section of Lincoln Financial Field, West Point's Corps of Cadets fought back in the healthy spirit of inter-service rivalry by reminding the Brigade of Midshipmen that soon, they'd be wearing an Army uniform and calling themselves "sand sailors" no matter how many aircraft carriers Congress to gave them.
The practical joke strategy worked so well that Navy plans to get in conference rival Tulane's head by reminding them about the crippling interest rate on student loan debt and the chances of finding job after graduation.
Army sniper unable to hit toilet bowl
ALL THE WAY! This Airborne Ranger refused to accept a blood transfusion from a leg!
FORT BENNING, Ga. – They say that when you become an airborne ranger, it's for life! This airborne ranger took it ALL THE WAY when he refused to accept a life-saving blood transfusion from a dirty, dirty leg, sources confirmed today. Hooah!
Army Spc. Ryan Collins, a graduate of the U.S. ARMY AIRBORNE SCHOOL, was so airborne! that when he took a bad landing, broke his leg, and started bleeding out, he motivated everyone around him by pulling out of consciousness long enough to say he'd only accept blood from an airborne-qualified soldier assigned to an airborne unit and receiving jump pay. No six jump chumps for this ranger!
"We wouldn't usually accept yelling 'Rangers lead the way' as an advanced medical directive," said Army doctor Lt. Col. Josh Malloy. "But woah, check out that motivation. He made me remember why I earned the tab."
Collins was last seen on his way to Martin Army Community Hospital begging his medics to let him die in his jump boots rather than set the broken bone. He passed out again in the front leaning rest.
General breaks jaw while talking out of both sides of mouth
WASHINGTON – Legislators, members of the press, and hearing attendees were stunned today when a general's jaw fell apart during testimony in front of the Senate Armed Services Committee after a career of talking out of both sides of his mouth.
The fracture came on the heels of the general saying, "We remain an agile fighting force ready to fight and win the nation's wars," moments after remarking that "the force is under-resourced, over-deployed, and suffering from low morale."
Sources close to the general suggest that this injury is not the result of an isolated moment but rather a career of wear and tear.
"He's been a people pleaser as long as I have known him," remarked one former aide-de-camp.
The general was only a few minutes into his prepared remarks when the injury occurred. Among the topics not yet addressed was the recent embarrassment of numerous service members involved in a nude photo phishing scam run by prison inmates.
"It's actually lucky his jaw fell apart when it did," remarked the general's current aide. "He was about to say, 'I continue to be nothing but inspired by the intelligence and integrity of our young soldiers every day,' right before announcing that he was mandating an Army-wide safety stand down to learn about the dangers of sexting."
The general expressed regret over the years of self-service that lead to his injury.
"I am ashamed of my years of pandering to whatever audience is in front of me and like a good soldier, I will fade away," the general said in a press release after the incident. "I plan to distance myself from my embarrassing past by posting weekly nonsensical leadership platitudes to LinkedIn."
Report: every warrant officer in the Army is still worthless
A comprehensive study released today of all motor pools, supply shops, and personnel stations in the Army concludes that every single warrant officer in the service remains totally and infuriatingly useless.
The main finding comes without great surprise, but a key observation has raised concerns that warrant officers may in fact waste resources and reduce readiness and morale.
"We're talking costs around paying and giving benefits to these officers, but we're also talking about the collateral damage of giving them any power or authority whatsoever," said Devin Wilson, lead author of the exhaustive 7,000-page RAND study.
Wilson points to measurable losses incurred when leaders break anything near them in a fit of rage at the dearth of utility they find in their warrant officers.
"The very existence of a warrant officer is fraud, waste, and abuse, according to our research," he added.
The study, "which of course excludes helicopter pilots, who are awesome," surveyed and observed every non-aviation warrant officer in the Army for a five-year period and concluded that the prototypical subject had the "smugness of a top-of-his-class West Point lieutenant combined with the laziness and apathy of a three-times-non-promoted staff NCO."
The report also indicated that a warrant officer's propensity to do anything helpful at all diminishes exponentially with each promotion.
DuffelBlog reached out to over 2,000 active Army warrant officers and their supervisors for comment, but only two responded.
"This isn't my job," a warrant officer said.
His supervisor stated simply, "I don't know what that guy does, and I don't want to ask because he's pretty terrible to talk to."
Report: Jody opening your wife's border while you protect ours
DONNA, Texas — Many U.S. Army spouses and their extramarital lovers are rejoicing following the deployment of their partners to the Mexican Border in support of border security operations, according to reports.
This past Monday marked the first official day of the recently launched operation, a measure the Department of Defense is taking to "strengthen border security."
It also marked the first opportunity for the partners of those deployed troops to openly philander in their now spouse-less household, a chance some are choosing not to let slip by.
"I thought he would never get deployed, honestly," said Audrey Timmons, whose husband, Spc. Jason Timmons of Headquarters Battalion, 4th Infantry Division, is currently serving near the border. "I have been itching to get into some strange for a while now. All of my friends who married into the military say it's what has kept their marriages going for so long."
The opportunity to philander isn't only a celebration for those whose spouses are deployed, but also for eager-to-ruin-a-marriage soldiers and civilians, commonly referred to as "Jody" in military circles.
Chad Stevens, a self-described "lifetime Jody" and mechanic at a local auto body shop located near Fort Carson, Co., home to the 4th Infantry Division, says he plans to "wreck some first sergeant's wife into oblivion" during the course of the unit's time away.
"I mean everybody in the country knows this mission is a complete joke, but, yeah this was definitely a nice little surprise," Stevens said. "Afghanistan has been drawing down for a few years now, so people have been coming back and fixing their marriages and shit, and that has really put a damper on my sex life considering all the action I get is from lonely military housewives. I am really looking forward to getting back out there."
When asked if he considers his behavior or the cheating spouses' actions to be in poor taste, Stevens was quick to defend, calling himself "a true patriot."
"Look, I am giving just as much to the overall mission as these deployed soldiers are," he said. "While they're out there on the front lines serving our country and protecting us from that caravan of immigrants, which may or may not actually be real, I'm in their houses, on their sofas, in their showers, and on their beds, servicing their wives."
Soldiers currently supporting border security operations will be gone until mid-December, and although not a typical U.S. Army deployment length, the mission still allows "plenty of time for spouses to cheat," according to Sandy Alderman, the Family Readiness Group lead to Headquarters Battalion, 4th Infantry Division and the now third wife to its commander, Col. Brian Alderman.
"The odds haven't been this high since Desert Storm," Alderman said. "All we can do is support those soldiers who undoubtedly will be cheated on, man or woman. I urge those folks to just take care of themselves, and just know that you are fighting the good fight and helping make our country great again."
Gen. Terrence O'Shaughnessy, commander of the U.S. Northern Command and North American Aerospace Defense Command, and Kevin McAleenan, the Customs and Border Protection commissioner, shared similar sentiments in regards to the mission during a news conference last week, referring to the current immigration status as a "humanitarian crisis" and that the focus of the mission, is to "harden the points of entry."
Stevens, however, remains bullish on the border situation in Mexico.
"There is no crisis, everybody knows that. The only crisis is the stain I am about to leave on all those soldiers' sheets," he said, winking emphatically. "In fact, I'm going to be opening a lot of borders, if you know what I mean. And make no mistake, I will be hard at the point of entry."
Troops deploy to Alamo for dramatic last stand against migrant caravan
SAN ANTONIO, Texas — In response to rising border tensions, President Donald Trump has ordered the National Guard and some active duty units to defend the Alamo against the incoming migrant caravan.
"There is no way we are letting the Mexicans win this time," said Trump of his 15,000-man force crammed into the five acre historic site 300 miles from the border.
The administration conceded that the centuries-old mission walls wouldn't provide the ideal defense against the procession of bad hombres, but that it would "just have to do" until the great wall is erected.
"I thought it would be bigger," the president allegedly whispered to Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Gen. Joseph Dunford, upon visiting the fort.
"It's not so bad." said Pvt. Jeffrey Crockett of the Tennessee National Guard. "We've got a nice view of downtown San Antonio and there's even a Cheesecake Factory down the road!"
Two blocks away, the U.S. Navy has been ordered to conduct riverine patrols of the Historic San Antonio River Walk. The service has been tasked with maintaining control of the narrow, Disney Land-esque waterway against drug smugglers and drunk tourists alike.
"War is hell," shouted an unidentified swift boat sailor, face painted like child at a carnival, cotton candy in one hand, an M-16 in the other, CCR's "Fortunate Son" blaring from his iPhone speakers.
Trump has faced fierce criticism over his use of force and a supposedly unclear mission.
"This stunt is simply un-American, and I can't stand for it," said Nancy Pelosi, Democratic House minority leader, who has gone down to the border town of McAllen, Texas to meet the caravan with open arms and several thousand voter registration forms for the 2020 election.
"It is truly sickening what some people will do for their political agendas."
At press time, Trump was feverishly planning his next move to secure our borders: setting up a Coast Guard flotilla to defend Lake Erie from the Canadians in the event they "try to pull a fast one like they did in 1812."

Why apples can cause riots (PoemTalk #51)
Linh Dinh, 'Eating Fried Chicken'
Linh Dinh playfully and bitterly engages food, war, and race in a poem called "Eating Fried Chicken." The poem appeared in his book American Tatts, published by Chax in 2005. For PoemTalk's 51st episode, Thomas Devaney, Susan Schultz (visiting from Hawai'i), and Leonard Schwartz (visiting from Olympia, Washington) joined Al Filreis to talk about this work of apparently straightforward address yet tonal complexity.
During the discussion Tom especially wrestles with the problem of tone. There's plenty of humor in the poem, he notes, but one can also read the speaker as a person who has "taken all the trouble inside of him and he's internalized it." Thus the "debts you owe me" — debts presumably the "brother" of line 1 owes the speaker — remind Tom of a tonal double strategy (particularly on questions of race) that Linh Dinh has learned from the early Amiri Baraka (LeRoi Jones) and from Etheridge Knight: "going on the offensive," as Tom puts it, "and yet implicating himself fully."
Pressing his reading of the poem's antagonist as a Vietnam War veteran, Al asks someone to describe how matters of family, honor, country (and "blood") pertain to food, whereupon Susan, thinking about Hawai'i, notes Asian American funerary practice which entails bringing comestibles to the deceased. Dinh doesn't want to be marked, she says, as an Asian American writer per se but "he's willing to play with that identification between food and identity precisely to call it into question." "'I dare you,'" Al summarizes, "'to make me mean something by what I eat.'" So what in the poem is the significance of the crispy chicken as alluringly "fast," so alluring as to disallow expectation and erase memory? Leonard observes that here Dinh is a poet who "steps from the street into the curb" and "looks down at formless stuff, and picks it up and starts playing with it" in the (modernist) tradition of Walter Benjamin (the "ragpicker who collects urban detritus only to turn it into poetry" — a key phrase from The Writer of Modern Life: Essays on Charles Baudelaire), except that here, in Dinh's world, the supposed junk "has been manufactured to look like that," as Leonard puts it, "manufactured to appear formless, junk in its very origins." And so junk food is obviously part of the aesthetic of the poem.
Clearly this is an occasion when the speaker is ostentatiously yet blithely willing to lick and consume food that is "not generally available to mankind." But "there are also times" when he (on principle? because of his sense of racial and international justice? because of a traumatic experience with people in war?) will "refuse" this easy, thoughtless gluttony. Such an ethical stance then puts his poem in mind of the scarcity of fresh food — the apples of line 12 — and of the riots non-ritualized (literal) privation causes. Yet, again, the showiness of the speaker's consumption in the first lines of the poem carries the intrepid but blithe conversationalism of the language all the way through until the very end when the breathing of the poet brings him up short, for the air enabling these utterances conjures the memory of war, from which eating fried chicken is presumably a great distance: lungs of "gun powder and smoke." Listen very closely to this audio recording — turn the volume way up — and you should be able hear Linh Dinh's special kind of breathing: a subtle although very basic form of urgency.
Dinh's PennSound page includes several performances of "Eating Fried Chicken." The recording we used was made during an extensive "Studio 111" reading in Philadelphia in December of 2007. We invite PoemTalk's audience to compare the nuanced ethical tone of this poem with those of several other American Tatts works performed at the same time: "Sudden Death Overtime" and "Bearings," for example. And for the context of Linh Dinh's critique of commodification and political power — and for a sense of his recent movement somewhat away from poetry — we recommend the hour-long talk he gave at the opening event launching an exhibit of his photographs in January 2011 and also his ongoing photographic blog, State of the Union.
The editor of this episode of PoemTalk was, as always, Steve McLaughlin.

A racist old lady on a plane is not cause for hundreds or thousands of schools and programs to institute any kind of policy. Numbers, stats, socioeconomic upward mobility analyses, some thing more than some fool on some plane. Ironically the story is an argument against AA, not for.I'm not arguing for or against AA, or pokadot pants for that matter, just pointing out the relevance (or not). On a separate note: why do you keep bring up 1L finals and why do you keep calling me "kid" - more crazy irrelevance? Will you tutor me on my finals? You seem so smart and open minded.Curiosity killed the cat, but assumption killed the person.
This is precisely your problem. I don't know what thoughts and attitudes are going on in your head unless you write them. I don't read your old posts, or your 9th grade history reports so when your reference any of that stuff you make no sense and exhibit logical jumps that make you look the fool. Referencing your old posts as you would a Webster's dictionary is just silly, man. Its just silly.

"Tata Massage" can keep its domainThursday, March 7th, 2013
In a recent domain name dispute over the domain, www.tatamassage.com, a single member Panel denied a request to transfer. See Tata Sons Limited v. Tata Massage (WIPO Case No. D2012-2467 , March 4, 2013). Complainant Tata Sons Limited is a company established in 1917, with business activities from a predecessor dating back to 1868. The company includes approximately 100 major companies, 28 of which on are the stock exchange. Some of its companies include Tata Steel, Tata Motors, Tata Power, etc. Complainant owns many trade marks involving the words "TATA" in the U.S. and around the world. Complainant operates a domain at www.TATA.com. The disputed domain was registered in 2011. Respondent provided a response and was represented internally.
Paragraph 4(a) of the ICANN UDRP Policy requires that Complainant must prove each of the following three elements to obtain an order that a domain name should be cancelled or transferred: (1) the domain name registered by Respondent is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark or service mark in which Complainant has rights; and (2) Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the domain name; and (3) the domain name has been registered and is being used in bad faith.
Regarding the first element, the Panel agreed that Complainant proved up rights to its marks. The Panel explained that "The disputed domain name is not identical to any of the Complainant's trademarks as, even disregarding the ".com" extension, none of the Complainant's trademarks include the alphabetical string "massage". Even so, the disputed domain name is plainly confusingly similar to the Complainant's trademarks." Therefore, according to the Panel, the use of TATA in the domain was enough to satisfy ¶4(a)(i) of the Policy.
In addressing the second prong, the Panel noted "the Respondent claims that the massage services being promoted at the website to which the disputed domain name resolves are being provided by the wife of the individual disclosed in the WhoIs details for the disputed domain name and her nickname, or the name by which she is commonly known amongst her friends and family, is Tata." To support this claim Respondent submitted exhibits showing reporters discussed visiting the services of Respondent and that the masseuse was introduced as Tata. The Panel also found it convincing that Respondent was operating a legitimate massage business, although explaining that a storefront is not required for the Policy. Third, and hold the laughter please, the Panel found that the nature of massage services offered was different from anything covered by Complainant's marks. The decision provides no details, but simply states that the technique used is "face slapping." Interestingly a review of the disputed domain explains the following "Face slapping is well known internationally and uses Thai wisdom to bring out your own beauty that is 100% chemical free. Most importantly nothing is forever and this is what you call natural beauty. Tata massage is unique beauty, and is a profession of true wisdom."
Ultimately, the Panel found that Complainant was unable to satisfy ¶4(a)(ii) of the Policy. The Panel declined to review ¶4(a)(iii) of the Policy
As a result, the Panel DENIED Complaint's request to transfer the disputed domain.

The Big East said Friday it has been notified that West Virginia is leaving the conference and joining the Big 12.
It appeared earlier in the week that the Big 12 had settled on West Virginia as its replacement for Missouri, which is likely leaving for the Southeastern Conference. But West Virginia's Big East rival Louisville briefly re-entered the picture and the Mountaineers' invitation to the Big 12 was put on hold temporarily.
In the end the extra time didn't pay off for the Cardinals.
West Virginia will be the 10th member of the Big 12, and Louisville will remain in the Big East, which is hoping to transform itself into a 12-team football conference that will include Boise State.
CBSSports.com first reported West Virginia's move to the Big 12.
With the loss of West Virginia, the Big East would need a 12th member. Sources have told CBSSports.com that the Big East's potential Western schools are in favor of adding BYU. It's unknown if the Cougars would be interested, but the fact the Big 12 will stay at 10 schools may increase BYU's chances of joining the Big East as a football-only member.
The decision by the Big 12 caps a strange week of conference realignment that included West Virginia officials on Tuesday preparing a press release and planning a news conference to announce its conference switch, then being told later that day to put those plans on hold.
Louisville made a late push for inclusion that reportedly involved a phone call from Kentucky Sen. Mitch McConnell, a Louisville alum, to Big 12 officials.
That set off West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin, who threatened a senate investigation if it were found that another lawmaker had stood in the way of the Mountaineers move.
Then late Thursday night, the SEC inadvertently posted on its website that Missouri was joining the league. The conference said no agreement has been reached with the school, but it was yet another sign that it's just a matter of time that the Tigers will follow Texas A&M and leave the Big 12 for the SEC.
Interim Big 12 Commissioner Chuck Neinas has said the conference is likely to stick with 10 schools at least for this round of realignment.
Now, the focus shifts to the Big East and how it plans to rebuild. It has been courting Boise State, Navy and Air Force as football-only members and SMU, Houston and Central Florida as all-sports members.
With the loss of West Virginia, it needs one more team to reach 12. Temple had been considered before Big East officials settled on the Texas schools from Conference USA.
