Dogs have traditionally led the pack when it comes to helping humans, whether they be for companionship or guiding the blind. But more and more, other animals are putting their best paws and hooves forward. Pigs, ferrets and even llamas are among those in the animal kingdom getting attention as sources of help, especially in the animal-assisted therapy department.
But until recently, cats have been ignored, mostly due to their unpredictable temperament and difficulty in training. Still, feline supporters declare that cats are potentially a great benefit to their human owners, especially in helping them heal if they're sick or injured.
When it comes to assistance, in this case, cats are most qualified in animal-assisted therapy, much different than service animals, which are trained to help disabled people to carry on with their daily lives. Animal-assisted therapy has more to do with comforting people to help them either recover from a malady or cope with a medical issue.
This type of therapy is quickly catching on to the point where animals other than dogs are being considered, given that the availability of animals is quite often lower than the demand, according to Bellevue, Washington-based Pet Partners, the organization that deals with therapeutic animal assistance. Pet Partners has assembled a database consisting of more than 13,000 animals, mostly dogs, although the list includes at least 200 cats and even a few llamas.
Naturally, each species has to undergo their own special training to suit their physiology and psychological headspace. Cats in particular need to be able to endure a lot of hygienic and grooming procedures, be car-friendly, withstand a room full of strangers, and put up with a lot of hugs before they're considered for registration.
At the same time, hospitals, businesses and various public places interested in animal-assisted therapy program need to have their work environments ready for such an initiative. So far, a few have reported success, as is the case of felines that put their comforting prowess to work at Salt Lake City's Primary Children's Hospital and Denver International Airport. Other companies like Aetna have approved therapy animals into the workplace, citing such benefits as stress reduction and better moods among employees as motives.

From the new Burger King menu: The Satisfries!
Tom Dougherty, CEO – Stealing Share
15 September 2013
Will anyone notice?
Burger King, which recently dropped to third behind McDonalds and Wendy's in market share, unveiled french fries that have 30% less calories than regular fries. What a surprise. Another addition to the Burger King menu. What a shock!
Will anybody care? The truth is that anyone who goes through a drive-thru is already making the concession that what they're going to eat will not be all that healthy.
"Still, Burger King is calling this a game-changer. I'm not convinced."
Still, Burger King is calling this a game-changer. I'm not convinced.
Most fast food menus have salads and even fruit. Anyone who would be seeking out a salad or some fruit is more likely to seek it elsewhere. Those items have been a positive because they give customers permission to go the fast food restaurant, even if the healthy stuff is not what they actually order. So, the fries do have some benefits for BK.
But I wouldn't hold my breath if I was Burger King. Some say it will be a game-changer as long as the fries taste good. After all, isn't BK's themeline, "Taste is King"? (King. Get it? Get it? Taste is King.) Prediction. The new Burger King menu item will taste terrible.
Therein lies the problem. Taste is a table stake. You think those who eat regularly at McDonald's think what they eat there sucks but still keep going?
The only way this becomes a game-changer is if Burger King's brand reflects the reason why the low-calorie fries are emotionally important. They're nice to have, why Burger King?
Because "Taste is King" isn't it.

The inbound methodology is the marketing and sales approach focused on attracting customers through content and interactions that are relevant and helpful. Each video you create should acknowledge your audience's challenges and provide a solution. Looking at the big picture, this content guides consumers through the journey of becoming aware of, evaluating, and purchasing your product or service.
I emailed him complaining that the "live" course was actually recorded. He wrote back, making excuses about how they used to do it live before Neil got so busy, and just hadn't had time to go back and re-record Neil's webinar-pitching video saying "live, won't be recorded" and update the emails to remove the "live" references. Really? You had time to develop a webinar that would take my chat comments and add them to the recorded stream, but you didn't have time to update your marketing materials?
Now that you know what stage of the marketing funnel you'll be targeting, it's time to figure out who your intended audience is. This is also a crucial step; if you create a video without a specific audience in mind, it's much more likely to be a flop. Those who are meant to watch it won't, and those who do watch it won't convert. So, how do you know who your target audienceExtended ArticleHow Do You Find the Target Audience for Your Brand Videos?One of the first steps in creating your video marketing strategy is figuring out exactly who you want your videos to reach. This is… Read More is?
The fourth tip I have for you is promoting your content. In 2019, you've got to spend more time promoting than writing. Again, I can't emphasize this enough. There's too much content on the web. It doesn't matter how good of a content piece you write it's not going to be seen unless you promote it. so spend more time promoting than writing. Use the 80/20 rule, 20 percent of the time writing, 80 percent promoting.
Along with all this talk of keeping videos short for the viewer, it's also true shorter content is a better format for most social platforms. As Forbes notes, short, concise content triumphs over longer forms of content, particularly on social media channels. Video marketers should consider using micro-video apps, which shorten videos to less than 10 seconds, so they're ideal of sharing on the likes of Instagram and Twitter.
Just as important as your visual effects are your audio effects. Sound mixing, dialogue, narration, and music all come together to create the audio that's heard when your video is watched. Even just adding a layer of ambient sound over a quiet scene can make the difference between what feels like a high-quality video and a low-quality one. Make sure a professional handles your audio mixing, so you have the perfect sound levels, foley effects, dialogue volume, and more.
In addition to the entertainment aspect, more and more marketers are focusing on video marketing strategies because of how beneficial they are. Think about it from your own perspective for a minute. Would you rather read a long page full of text or watch a quick video to learn about a new product? Would you rather spend time reading about the steps of a company's sales process or watch an animation to associate each step with a visual aid? If you're like 80 percent of the population, you'd rather watch the video.
For example, if your goal was to boost trust in your business, then you should share videos that provide real value to your audience, such as how-to videos and videos with useful tips, along with video case studies, behind the scenes videos and other similar types of videos that help build trust. Or, if you wanted to boost your social selling, then you'd need to take a different route: more product-related videos showcasing the value of your products or services as well as the benefits they would bring to your target audience.
After everything you just read about video marketing in 2018 and 2019, we hope you are in agreement that videos are going to be critical for your marketing strategy moving forward. Since people are more willing to watch and remember your message in a video format, instead of reading a blog post or looking at static images, you want to make sure you are putting your company and your brand in a position to reach your targeted audience.
Yes, you read that title correctly. That out of their minds, slightly alcoholic team over at Epic Meal Time were the first to teach me about YouTube marketing. As with all successful YouTube channels, they had to build their own channel themselves. There was no network backing them or an executive producer coming on board to show them the ropes. There wasn't even anyone with any real experience!
A purchase may have been made, but there's still a lot of video can do to leverage the post-conversion stage of your flywheel. During the "delight stage" of the inbound methodology, your goal is to continue providing remarkable content to users that makes their interaction with your product or service as incredible as possible. It's also in hopes that they'll tell their connections about their experience or up-sell themselves. Therefore, the goal of this type of video is to encourage your customers to embrace your brand and become brand evangelists.
Thanks to its viral nature, simple accessibility and built-in value, video marketing stands out as a smart way to approach content marketing in 2017 and beyond. Video marketing is an incredible way to create content that is personal and has a real impact on your audience. It has an incomparable ability to create emotion driven sales – and sales are always personal on some level. Buyers want to feel good about their choice, and video marketing, when done correctly, is the best way to create this feeling.
From your homepage to your ecommerce pages, put your video on as many pages as possible on your website; this will help not only drive more visitors to your site, but engage them once they're there. If you have more than one video, even better! This is the first place you'll want to start gathering video views — and probably the most impactful of all the views you'll get.
Are you launching a new product or a service? Create a video to show how it works. 98% of users say they've watched an explainer video to learn more about a product or service. That is why 45% of businesses who use video marketing said that they have an explainer video on their home page. Of those businesses, 83% said that their homepage explainer video was effective.
The growth of video marketing is presenting a unique opportunity for brands like yours. As consumers continue to prefer video to other forms of content, they're now expecting brands of every size and in every industry to connect with them using video. Platforms are increasingly prioritizing video content, and even new devices like phones and tablets are more video ready than ever before. That means you have to take full advantage of this amazing marketing tool to be competitive. The longer you wait, the more customers you'll lose.
The way you do this is one, make sure your site is HTTPS because most of the sites that are at the top are HTTPS these days. And two, your site needs to load fast. If it doesn't load fast you're not going to do as well with voice search. Three, when people are typing in questions, they're typically typing in longer-term phrases. So your questions, and especially your answers need to be short and to the point. If your answers are a paragraph long you're not going to do as well compared to if your answer was one sentence long.

In the study, Berger suggests that feeling fearful, angry, or amused drives people to share news and information. These types of emotions are characterized by high arousal and action, as opposed to emotions like sadness or contentment, which are characterized by low arousal or inaction. "If something makes you angry as opposed to sad, for example, you're more likely to share it with your family and friends because you're fired up," continues Berger.

The announcement recently by Sandy that they are changing direction back to chase condensate and gas is no doubt commendable - however I can't help but feel it does point out the dilemma we are in.
These wells we have been drilling were supposed to reduce by 50% in about 6 months. The trouble is, these appear to drop by 50% inside a month or so - BIG DIFFERENCE - must be lineball in terms of "worth the effort".
And I believe Sandy is acknowledging this.
The shareprice for a producer which Burleson is (it's not one of the specs anymore as it is producing income????)is surely telling us something.

Hey CH family. anybody else get symptoms from merely saying the word headache
Oooooohhhh I hate them.
No I actually had cluster headaches, there is no symptoms from saying "Headaches" or "custer headaches". Yes the headaches are self aware, what are you smoking? drinking? Eating? they never taunted me, after I regulated my sleep habits and eating; they slowly started going away; eventually disappearing period. Going on 4 years now. Yes they will come back eventually, but if you keep ignoring the fact you can't defeat it, it makes me wonder whether you are just taunting your own self in the fact "They might disappear".
I "actually" have them Patrick. For ten years now, so trust that I have no illusions about these headaches. Good for you that yours are regulated. All of us aren't that lucky. How and why would I taunt myself thinking they may disappear? Do you know how stupid that sounds? You could have glossed right over this post but nooooo, you gave this long ass monologue that didn't help at all. Thanks for nothing.
yes noone is allowed to say the h word in my house
I went 4 years without them...then they came back one day....
when someone talks about headaches i dont listen, and when there is something is on tv about the h word i turn the channel,its one of my triggers, sry patrick

The "problem" junior: whose problem is it?BMJ 2008; 336 doi: https://doi.org/10.1136/bmj.39308.610081.AD (Published 17 January 2008) Cite this as: BMJ 2008;336:150

Summary points
A "problem" junior may be a learner who does not meet expectations because of problems in one of three areas: knowledge, attitudes, or skills
Teachers must identify whether the problem lies with the teacher, the learner, and/or the system
Careful data gathering with the learner is essential before any intervention
Teachers must identify learners' strengths as well as areas for improvement
Interventions may include increased observation and feedback, additional time with a faculty adviser, weekly study sessions, core content review, videotaping of clinical encounters, or counselling
Teachers must work collaboratively with the junior doctor to ensure "due process" and guarantee fairness, confidentiality, and informed consent
Clinical teachers often work with junior doctors whom they find challenging or "difficult." However, we all view learners' problems differently, and whether we label a junior doctor as a "problem" doctor depends on many factors. Some of us may have encountered junior doctors like Dr James and Dr Roberts (see box 1) and perceived them as challenging or difficult; others may not. This article describes an approach to identifying, diagnosing, and working with problem learners1 2 that has been used successfully in our setting.
Box 1 Case scenario
Dr James
Ward staff have complained to you about Dr James, a junior house officer who has been working with you for three months. Apparently he is slow to answer his pager, ignores requests to complete discharge summaries, and can be abrupt with staff and patients. He often makes dismissive comments about patients and other team members. However, no one doubts his medical competence
Dr Roberts
Dr Roberts is completing her rotation in internal medicine. She is well liked by everyone but seems indecisive and disorganised. She has difficulty prioritising and as a result does not get to see the sickest patients until the end of the day, when it is difficult to organise tests and seek help. She often pages her seniors to ask about little things (though she does not always remember to tell them about more important problems), and lately she seems worried and withdrawn
What do we know about problem learners?
Various terms have been used to describe the problem junior: the difficult resident, the troublesome learner, the disruptive student, the impaired physician.3456 Definitions of a problem learner include those by the American Board of Internal Medicine (a "trainee who demonstrates a significant enough problem that requires intervention by someone of authority, usually the program director or chief resident")5 and by Vaughn and colleagues ("a learner whose academic performance is significantly below performance potential because of a specific affective, cognitive, structural or interpersonal difficulty").7 Others have used the term to refer to impairment, secondary to emotional stress or substance abuse.3 8 In this article, we define a problem junior as a learner who does not meet the expectations of a training programme because of a problem with knowledge, attitudes, or skills.
Clinical teachers often wonder whether other teachers come across problem learners, as many feel that they are alone in dealing with the challenges that these learners present. Prevalence studies are limited,91011 but reported rates of problem learners vary from 5.8% over a four year period in a psychiatry programme11 to 9.1% over a 25 year period in family medicine.9 In one study, the most common problems identified by teachers were insufficient medical knowledge (48%), poor clinical judgment (44%), and inefficient use of time (44%).11 Another study identified insufficient knowledge and attitudinal problems as the most common challenges, followed by interpersonal conflict, psychiatric illness, family stress, and substance misuse.9 Not surprisingly, problem residents rarely identify themselves.11
How can we best work with problem learners?
The following recommendations for working with problem juniors are based on published studies,91011 expert advice,3456 and our own experience in working with residents.1 2
Define the "problem"
When working with problem learners, teachers often report an intuitive sense that something is wrong, although they may not be able to describe it easily. Answering the following questions will help to determine what, if anything, might be wrong:
What is the problem?
Whose problem is it?
Is it a problem that must be resolved?
In our experience, learners' problems usually lie in one of three areas: knowledge, attitudes, or skills. Knowledge problems often include deficiencies in basic or clinical sciences. Attitude problems (usually manifested as behaviours) typically include difficulties related to motivation, insight, doctor-patient relationships, and self assessment; although such problems may be easy to identify, they are often the most challenging. Skill deficiencies include problems with interpretation of information, interpersonal or technical skills, or clinical judgment and organisation of work.1 Figure 1⇓ provides a framework for analysing these problems, many of which often overlap. Teachers in our setting have found that this framework helps them to identify the learner's problems and strengths and analyse whether the problem lies with the teacher, the learner, and/or the system.
Teachers' problems
As clinicians, we bring our own assumptions, experiences, and biases to the teaching encounter. We must therefore assess to what extent we are contributing to the identified problem. For example, we may label a learner a problem, not because he or she is difficult but because we are personally stressed or unsatisfied with our teaching role. Common responses reported by teachers working with problem learners include:
Denial ("Maybe he's just having a bad day")
Avoidance ("I think I'll schedule another clinic during my teaching session")
Desire to rescue or protect ("If I work hard enough, I'll be able to help her")
Anger or frustration ("Oh no! Why do I always get the challenging residents?" )
Helplessness or impotence ("It's so hard! We'll never be able to do it")
Acceptance ("Let's get on with it and design a good programme").
Not surprisingly, teachers' feelings may often mirror those of the learner. Thus, identifying our personal responses can serve as a useful assessment tool.
Learners' problems
In addition to gaps in knowledge, attitudes, or skills, learners' problems can include life stresses (such as immigration, move to another city, marriage or divorce), psychiatric illness or substance misuse, interpersonal conflict, or learning problems. Learners' expectations, assumptions, and reactions to the perceived problem (such as a sense of inadequacy, insecurity, or being overwhelmed; anger; fear of losing control; or withdrawal) may also contribute to the nature of the problem. In addition, we must remember that labelling a junior doctor as a problem can seriously affect the learner, and whenever possible we should avoid labelling. It may cause more harm than good.
Systems problems
Systems problems, which are ubiquitous, include unclear standards and responsibilities; overwhelming workloads, compounded by difficult or complex patients; inconsistency in teaching or supervision; and a lack of feedback or appraisal. Identifying systems constraints is critical to defining the problem and designing an appropriate intervention. We must also ensure that the system supports the teacher.
Is change necessary?
In summary, we must ask ourselves whether a particular problem must be tackled and what would happen if it was not resolved. Although many teachers would like their learners to be happy, pleasant, and cooperative,1 this is not a realistic expectation.
Confirm the "diagnosis"
Having defined the problem and considered our own contributions to it (box 2), careful data gathering is essential, especially as we often make intuitive decisions about learners without verifying our assumptions or intuitions. To confirm the "diagnosis," teachers should ascertain full details of the problem (such as when it started, what makes it worse); the learner's perception of the problem; the learner's strengths and weaknesses in knowledge base, attitudes, and skills (if not already identified); the learner's relevant life history (such as current life stresses, coping strategies); the learner's performance on different rotations; and other colleagues' perceptions, feelings, expectations, and assumptions.
Box 2 Case scenario: defining the problem
Dr James
Dr James clearly demonstrates strengths in clinical knowledge and skills. However, he appears unmotivated to ward staff, who label his behaviours (such as being abrupt with patients and staff) as unacceptable attitudes. Dr James's teacher, a new recruit overwhelmed by his own responsibilities, has not had an opportunity to observe Dr James's interactions with patients and colleagues and is reliant on second hand information (teacher problem). Dr James has recently separated from his wife, moved to this city, and has few social supports (learner problem); in addition, his educational training programme does not offer a mentorship programme or residency support group (system problem).
Dr Roberts
Dr Roberts demonstrates a positive attitude and is well liked by colleagues and peers. However, further inquiry reveals serious gaps in core knowledge (which results in difficulty prioritising) and clinical skills. Her positive behaviour appears to have camouflaged these gaps (teacher problem), which are secondary to a recently diagnosed learning disability (learner problem). Her difficulties in medical school and on previous rotations have also not been communicated to any of her teaching staff, who are unaware of why she is struggling (system problem).
We also need to consider how much and what kind of information we should collect. In fairness to the learner and to help us make an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan,1 we need to inquire about current life stresses, recurrent problems, and support systems, especially as referral to a mental health professional may be indicated at some point during the intervention.
To gather data effectively, clinical teachers also need to observe junior doctors in a variety of situations, systematically review patients' problems with the learner, and ensure that their assessment of the learner is congruent with that of their colleagues. When appropriate, it is also helpful to get feedback from other rotations. Problems are most often identified through direct observation (82%) and critical incidents (52%).11
Design and implement an intervention
Having diagnosed the problem, we need to determine how we will intervene, who should be involved, and when to evaluate outcome. Some problems (such as psychiatric illness, substance misuse) will require urgent attention; most will not occur in isolation. As a result, we need to prioritise carefully and ensure consensus on problem definition and intervention. Involving the junior doctor in designing the intervention programme is also essential, as is documentation of every step.
Box 3 lists a series of interventions that are often used when working with problem learners. Sometimes the clinical teacher will be involved in all components; at other times, programme directors or other senior administrators will be responsible. However, in all situations we must know what options are available and one person must be accountable. Often, spending additional time with the learner (and monitoring what they do) or conducting further assessments is sufficient. In other cases, we need to enhance juniors' learning opportunities, either by increasing time for observation or feedback or by arranging one to one coaching with staff or peers. In some situations, workloads might need to be reduced to allow for independent study and reading (for knowledge problems) or increased practice and feedback (for skill related deficits). Alternatively, a formal remedial programme may be needed, with clearly defined goals and objectives, learning strategies, and evaluation methods. The latter may not occur in the usual place of learning. Although suspension, probation, and dismissal are not desirable options, they must be considered.12
Box 3 Working with problem juniors: options for intervention
Conduct further assessments
Spend additional time with the learner (and monitor what they do)
Communicate clear expectations
Provide enhanced teaching and learning opportunities
Arrange for peer or mentor support
Reduce the clinical workload, with more protected time
Change the primary supervisor or the location of training
Design a remedial programme, with defined goals, objectives, strategies, and evaluation methods
Offer a skill based training course tailored to individual needs
Recommend counselling and/or therapy
Enable a leave of absence
Place the learner on probation
Dismiss the learner from your programme
Experience has shown that common interventions include increased observation and feedback (for gaps in knowledge or skills); increased time with a faculty adviser (for knowledge deficits, attitudinal problems, interpersonal conflict, or family stress); weekly study sessions, core content review, and videotaping of clinical encounters (for knowledge, attitudinal, or skill problems); and psychiatric counselling (for attitudinal problems, interpersonal conflict, family stress, or substance misuse).9 Box 4 illustrates how these interventions might be used.
Box 4 Case scenario: designing interventions
Dr James
One to one discussions with Dr James were extremely helpful in determining the source of his problems and identifying possible solutions. His teacher decided to observe him more systematically and provide immediate feedback on inappropriate attitudes and behaviours. Dr James was surprised that his stress had affected his behaviour with patients and staff. However, he was motivated to succeed and responded positively to his teacher's suggestions. He also started to work with a faculty adviser to talk about some of the stresses he was experiencing.
Dr Roberts
Dr Roberts required further assessment; a remedial programme to review her clinical knowledge; a reduced workload and protected time to enable skill acquisition; and enhanced teaching opportunities, with one to one coaching and feedback. Given her personal charm, and the results of a learning assessment that enabled individually tailored learning experiences, Dr Roberts was able to re-enter her regular programme within six months.
Anticipated outcomes, and consequences of failed interventions, must also be determined early in the process, though it is heartening to note that close to 90% of problem learners succeed after a structured intervention or remediation programme.8 9
Assure "due process"
Teachers must work collaboratively to ensure "due process" to guarantee fairness, confidentiality, and informed consent.13 14 Fairness implies that the learner is aware of the programme's educational objectives and rules of promotion. It also implies that feedback is given on a regular basis and that the teachers' evaluations are based on first hand exposure and objective data. Documentation is critical to the assurance of natural justice, and teachers must be encouraged to document their assessments, interventions, evaluations, and discussions with the learner. At the same time, we must also remember that due process is a bilateral process, so we must ensure natural justice for our teachers as well. Many a teacher has commented on the loneliness and vulnerability that they experience when working with problem learners.
What other challenges do we face with problem learners?
It can be difficult to identify learners' problems, and once we do, it may be even harder to confront learners with our perceptions. Many teachers in our setting report an overwhelming desire to protect or rescue their learners. Others report a lack of time to diagnose or manage learners' problems effectively. However, all teachers note that the rewards of helping a junior doctor to achieve his or her potential are great.
How can we prevent learners' problems?
Although the prevention of learners' problems is beyond the scope of this article, several strategies are worth considering.15 16 As teachers, we must acknowledge the stress of postgraduate training and offer support to deal with systemic issues. We must also provide an educational environment that allows for differences among learners, timely feedback, and ongoing assessment so that problems are identified early and evaluations are not a surprise. In addition, we should consider the role of faculty advisers or mentors so that learners can receive support and guidance in an atmosphere of trust and respect. Peer support, which can help to guard against delay in problem identification, can also be a useful intervention.
Clinical teachers often do not know what to do when faced with a problem learner who requires considerable time and effort. The goal of this article is to provide a structured approach to problem definition, effective data gathering, and timely interventions. Although junior doctors' difficulties are often seen as residing within the learner alone, teacher and system factors must be considered.
This series provides an update on practical teaching methods for busy clinicians who teach. The series advisers are Peter Cantillon, senior lecturer in the department of general practice at the National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland; and Yvonne Steinert, professor of family medicine, associate dean for faculty development, and director of the Centre for Medical Education at McGill University, Montreal.

Selling cattle at auction
By Marzeus von Hemelen, 25th Oct 2015 | Follow this author
| RSS Feed | Short URL http://nut.bz/6vm7cp7h/
Posted in WikinutWritingNarrative
I'm doing my exercises on music when Father comes knock on the door of Lordly House.
He asks me if I would like to go with Uncle Gus and him to an auction in about an hour. They've loaded the cattle this morning onto a truck, and they're going to sell them at auction in Voortrekkerdorp.
Selling cattle at auction
I'm a little caught off guard, and stand there without a word, thinking for a while. I already kinda planned my day, but then I think sure why not and just tell him I'll come.
For some months, Father, Mother, Uncle Gus and Auntie René have been pondering about what to do with the cattle. Since Father sold The Chicken Factory in 2007, he had to cut off and sell most all of his Tower Hills land, leaving him only with a small piece.
By negotiating with neighbouring farmers for favors and agreements regarding the use of their land to add to the grazing land of the cattle, Father and Uncle Gus have been able to keep a large herd of cattle, that is supposed to produce the income to pay for Uncle Gus and Auntie René.
But it's been getting really tough. We just don't have enough land to farm with cattle on. And then of course, recently Duggles decided he's just going to quit his job working for us if he cannot keep his own herd of cattle on our small stretch of land too.
So, we arrive at the auction grounds.
First, the sheep and goats are auctioned off in small stalls. Many black people seem to buy during this part of the auction. In fact, the auctioneer seems to know them all by name, and actually seems to know by now who tends to buy what, because he focuses certain individuals' attention on certain animals that are being auctioned off, seemingly knowing exactly who is interested in what.
Then we move to the cattle kraals where they chase either one or a group of cattle into a circle, and the people sitting on a small sheltered pavillion bid on the animals on show. Also, there's a table where they're selling pies and cooldrinks and sausage rolls and vetkoek.
Father and Uncle Gus' cattle are doing well, and it appears afterwards that the total of the prices the cattle fetched wasn't below their expectations, so that's good.
Now we have a lot less cattle, and can probably manage them on our small piece of land.

For what it is, PetPeppy is easily the best dog travel carrier compared to others because it's more sturdy and safe for dogs. While no additional sizes are available of this carrier, you can fit a small or small-medium dog into this travel dog crate but note that a lot of dogs find these crates uncomfortable during long trips, therefore it's best for short distance travel and short flights where you can attend to your dog faster.
Finally, you'll want to be sure to check with the travel agency (if you're using one) and all locations where you will be staying to make sure that both pets and the type of crate you're taking are allowed. Remember to ask if they have unique crate specifications. This is particularly true for airlines, because each airline has their own guidelines, but the same can be said for every bus service, train service, and hotels. Planning ahead could save you from dealing with unnecessary issues during your travels.
Wire dog crates are ideal for pets with long coats or those who live in warmer climates. The continuous air flow keeps them cool while the open design allows them to see their surroundings. Wire and metal dog crate sizes range from X-Small, for a max weight of 20 LBS, all the way up to XX-Large, for a max weight of 140 LBS. While it's good to know your dog's weight, you can also reference our crate sizing guide to get a better idea of which size works for each breed.
Continuing the trend with leaders topping our list of best travel dog crates, MidWest are best known for their top quality metal dog crates. This Midwest Life Stages folding metal dog crate in particular can be used throughout the life of your dog, and it's a great alternative to soft travel dog crates. Normally, it's recommended to buy the crate for regular use as opposed to just travel, and when looking for it, make sure to buy one for your dog's adult size (if you still have a puppy that is). Metal dog crates are good for both plane and car travel if you know how to use them. Some dogs prefer metal crates over soft, but they're not always the best option. A divider panel is included with the crate to adjust its size as your dog grows. This gives the option for the crate to be used for more than one dog, as the size of the cage can be adjusted for each dog.
I broke down and got a pompoo for my 14 yr old daughter. I am getting wonderful help from friends – but very conflicting. One says do not let pup graze – put food in crate – and shut the door. The other says never feed in crate. I tried feeding in crate – but he gets upset – spills food and whines. Now I have a pup who has not eaten and is upset. and I have to wait for the moment that he stops whining to take him out of the crate. I am exhausted and I feel he is in the crate so much already – at night and during the day when I am at work….I want him to enjoy his new family.
I'm a firm believer in you get what you pay for, so I was a little concerned that the Frisco crate was so much less expensive than the Midwest crate. I read the reviews and decided to go with this one. First thing...I got it the next day! That was impressive. After getting the huge box opened and separating all the pieces, it took me about 20 minutes without help to assemble the pleasingly sturdy crate. It did take another 20 minutes to clean up all the styrofoam, but I was prepared for that. The instructions were complete and easy to understand, it was easy to identify the pieces, and assembly was easy. I only used pliers once, and that was due to a piece that I probably bent myself.

The crate is huge, so I would be sure to assemble it in the room you plan to leave it in. I've only had it one day, but my Great Dane pup loves it! I highly recommend this product. … more
2PET Foldable Dog Crate – Another similar design as best dog travel crate from EliteField, this one is less sturdy and softer than EliteField crate, which can be either a good or a bad thing, depending on what you're looking for and your type of travel. They're available in similar sizes and three colors. As for the features, they're exactly the same as EliteField dog crate, but this one is cheaper.
PetPeppy dog travel carrier is not waterproof or water-resistant and may be difficult to clean due to its construction and the materials used. The main reason a pet owner would buy this is due to how easy it is to carry it, especially if you have small dogs. The expandable space is also a huge advantage since you can store your dog's toys and other supplies without having to carry them with you, but that obviously makes the crate less ergonomic and expands its sides, which makes it less easy to carry.

My Fiance and I recently brought home a 10-week old lab-pit mix. She is just the sweetest and cuddliest dog. We are having a tough time getting used to the crate though. She knows when my fiance and I have to go to work she has to go in the crate. We have tried giving her a bone to keep her occupied, putting an article of our clothing in the crate so she recognizes our scent, she has her favorite toys in the crate, but she whines for hours on end. For the last 2 weeks she has had 3 accidents in her crate, which is not bad at all! The puppy is in the crate from 8:30-12 she is out for an hour when my fiance comes home from lunch then she is in the crate from 1-3 and is let out again by my brother. Then she is out of her crate when my fiance gets home from work at 5. Any tips on how we can make this a less painful process and something she actually isn't afraid of? She is also sleeping at the edge of the bed right now. Thank you!
This is a very nice carrier with a top and side door. The top door is not a moon roof. I like the top door--a lot-- because once I catch one of the little monst—I mean cats, I don't want to have to shove it in the door. I love the drop-a-cat door. It cuts down on my injuries by 90%. The little bugg—, I mean cat, only got me once instead of leaving a full set of scratch marks on my hands and arms.
Venturing away from standard best travel dog crates, we've now coming into the territory of heavy duty dog cages for travel which is yet to be dominated by one single manufacturer. However, the Variocage is one of the best heavy duty dog travel cages due to its smart design, stylish looks, high quality material and crash tests. These are very expensive travel cages for dogs, but well worth the investment if you're looking something for large dogs and long distance travel. Not only do these heavy and indestructible dog cages look very stylish, but they've been ranked best for crash tests. These travel dog crates are very comfortable for dogs and easy to clean too. In addition, for added security, the Variocage includes a built-in key lock.
Once your puppy accepts the crate as a fact of puppy life, you can move the crate to a more acceptable spot in the house. A place next to your own bed will let the puppy sleep in its own spot but near your familiar smells and presence. That also offers you a more private area to seclude it, when necessary, from activities in the living area or kitchen that might keep your dog overstimulated.

We appreciate the impact a dog crate can have on the lifestyle you share with your pet. For some families, a dog travel crate is the only way a pet can travel in safety and comfort. And for most, a dog's crate serves as his sanctuary—a safe place for him to rest, recuperate, or just plain relax. However the crate fits into life with your dog, we take great pains to make sure ours will rise to the occasion.
Your dog's size and the mode of transportation you will be taking are the two biggest factors to take into account when choosing the best dog travel crate. Your pet will have to fit comfortably in the carrier without having too much excess room, and the carrier will need to be appropriate for the car, plane, train, or other mode of transportation that you'll be taking as well as easy to transport from location to location.

It was a little more complicated to put together than the smaller crates, but it's perfect. My lab has to have cruciate ligament surgery and his current crate is too small with the cone. It is large enough for him to freely move around and for me to actually go in there with him to give him attention. It's big and takes up a fair amount of space, but I am very happy with the purchase. Hopefully, it will minimize the difficulty of the 12 week recovery for an active dog!
The wire is thinner than my old crate, which is also made of the black metal, but it is still sturdy. I used to have the really heavy silver steel crates but they are ugly and stronger than necessary. I guess if you have a dog you think might get out, you should use zip-ties all around and bungee the door when the dog is inside. The ... full review
Update: We traveled quite a bit this holiday season and this portable crate was absolutely awesome! I have seen some reviews about bad zippers but suspect it's due to misuse. You have to raise each side before zipping it -- just common sense, people. Otherwise, there is too much pressure on the zipper. I think zippers on this crate are sturdy. Another suggestion is placing your dog's favorite bed inside. The crate (we have extra large) has plenty of room to add an extra large fluffy dog bed our dog loves. Because the crate folds flat, we place the crate in the cargo area and cover it with dog's bed when on the road. The dog sprawls like a queen! :) When we get to the destination, we unfold the crate, throw the bed inside, and voila -- cozy house that ... full review

With plenty of control, this free compressor competes with hardware compressors on the market. Airing more on the simple side, the MJUCjr only features two knobs compress and make-up and a three-tiered switch at the bottom slow, fast, and auto. This multi-band compressor has a unique layout and is optimized for electronic genres.
Standard input and output gain options are here as well. Xfer Records OTT also includes upward and downward ratio knobs at the bottom, controlling the directionality of the compression. Another multi-band compressor, the GMulti offers three separate bands. Each band has its own knobs for threshold, ratio, attack, and release, as well as gain reduction.
There is also an overall mix knob that controls the combined wet and dry signals.
GarageBand for Mac: Use Audio Units plug-ins with GarageBand
This tool allows you to maintain the dynamics of the original dry signal while reaping the benefits of compression, sort of like with parallel compression. One caveat here for Mac users: the Mac version of this plugin is still in beta. Reverb is that subtle effect that can make a song feel much bigger than before. While Logic Pro X features reverb controls, it never hurts to explore other options for added versatility and different types of reverb. Ambience holds its own against some of the best paid-for reverb plugins, all while showing off an elegant display.
Unfortunately, this presentation gets lost with Mac hardware, but all of the functionality of Ambience remains. The wetness or dryness of the signal can also be tweaked in small increments. Six EQ knobs line the left of the interface. In the center lie three more knobs, one for room size, pre-delay, and stereo width. With just one knob and one slider, the Reverb Solo makes adding space to your track fiendishly easy. The central knob controls how small and bright or large and dark the sound will be, while the slider at the bottom dictates how dry or wet the signal is. No numbers, no specific frequencies—this plugin is all about ease of use and feel.
As its name suggests, this free reverb plugin from Voxengo offers a more classic reverb sound. Oldskoolverb features several parameters, making it as versatile as other high-end reverbs. This reverb is optimized for gentle attack, meaning it works best with vocals, piano, etc. There are so many types of delay out there.
The Ultimate List of Audio Units
The best delay plugins can achieve multiple delay types with relative ease. Lucky for you, we rounded up a few of the best Mac free plugins. Voxengo not only makes a great reverb, their delay leaves an impression, too. In particular, the Valhalla FreqEcho can do wonders with its feedback knob.
When cranked, the knob allows audio to feedback into itself, creating an infinite, ever-building signal. This signal can be manipulated in real time, resulting in some trance-like, perhaps nightmarish loops. The plugin also features delay sync, meaning the signal will repeat at different note lengths.
In fact, when recording, delay latency can be a great adversary. Latency is often caused by a lack of processing power. When too many plugins are running at once, latency enters the equation, making recording difficult at times. Voxengo has another trick up its sleeve with this Latency Delay plugin.
Without getting too technical, it allows you to trick the DAW into compensating for its own latency, by either milliseconds or samples.

Sebastian, Sorry for not opening a new topic for this, but currently I have the version of openmeetings as openmeetings_1_9_1_r4707.zip, and that's the only error I am encountering (or Warning). However, do you think if I integrate openmeetings with sakai, that will create an issue? I have not tried integrating sakai with openmeetings, but I am about to get started. Is there any tutorial as well as of how to integrate sakai with latest version of openmeetings?

Development of magnesium technology from billet casting to profile manufacturing
Development of lightweight, high-performance magnesium alloys
for the automotive, electronic/ aerospace industries with
maximum extrusion speed, meeting performance requirements/
considerable environmental benefits.
Having a gravity only about 1/4 of that of iron and steel and 2/3 of that of aluminium, magnesium is the lightest structural metal on earth. This feature presents a much greater weight-saving potential compared to aluminium, when substituting cast iron and steel, to fulfil the need of the European automotive industry that has committed itself to reducing fuel consumption by 25% and CO2 emissions by 50% by 2005 in comparison with the levels in 1990. (A 10% reduction in vehicle weight can bring about a reduction of fuel consumption of about 5%). In recent years magnesium consumption has grown by 15% per year and this rate is expected to be sustainable for many years to come, as the automotive, electronic and aircraft industries keep moving towards lightweight solutions for environmental protection, fuel economy, payload and downsized structures. The development of magnesium alloys in the last 10 years has been concentrated in cast alloys and their applications in automobiles. At the moment, over 95% of automotive structural components made of magnesium are manufactured through die-casting. This abnormal ratio must change by increasing the market share of extruded magnesium alloys. However, before the great potential of extruded magnesium profiles can be explored, many technical barriers must be overcome. The present project is intended to address the technical problems spread over the whole chain of profile manufacturing and to find commercially viable solutions, so as to provide extruded magnesium products with strong competitive advantages. The project is targeted: - To produce extruded profiles made of existing wrought magnesium alloys with a 25% higher strength and ductility in comparison with their cast counterparts. - To produce new extrusion alloys with mechanical properties at the same level (specific strength and ductility) as medium-strength aluminium alloys suitable for structural applications. - To adapt Direct-Chill (DC) casting for aluminium to magnesium billet preparation, to minimise the use of Hexafluoride Gas (SF6) as protective atmosphere and to cast billets with grain size at least 50% smaller than that from pressure die casting (ca. 200/m) without surface and internal defects. - To develop the method of homogenisation treatment to modify the as-cast structure and allow extrusion speed to increase by 50% in comparison with no homogenisation (3m/min). -To develop magnesium extrusion techniques to reach a scrap rate less than 25% (equivalent to the level of technologically advanced aluminium extrusion plant in western Europe), an extrusion speed at least 50% higher than the current level (3 m/min) and a die correction rate not more than 1.5 times for each profile (current level in the European aluminium extrusion industry: 1.7 trials for each new die on average). - To develop new die materials with die service life increased by 100% in comparison with the conventional H13 hot-work tool steel. - To develop special multi-wavelength pyrometers to be able to quickly and accurately measure the temperature of magnesium billet moving into the container and the temperature of extruded magnesium profile leaving the press mouth. - To establish the correlation between the mechanical properties of the extruded profiles/ ageing condition and to be able to tailor treat magnesium profiles according to their property specifications. To reach these targets, theoretical studies will be coupled with experimentation in the laboratory and in the industrial setting. Emphasis will be placed on the establishment of industrially applicable knowledge and methodology, thereby formulating guidelines for the tailor- design of magnesium alloys for extrusion, the selection of process parameters and the design of extrusion dies to meet the demands for a wide range of applications of magnesium profiles after the completion of the project. The project is broadly divided into three phases. Each phase has a definitive list of tasks. Each task has clear objectives and responsibilities that each partner takes on and deliverables (results): * Phase I concerns the first round of developing the processing technologies from DC casting through extrusion to heat treatment. The magnesium alloys dealt with in this phase are those of general-purpose wrought magnesium alloys. The results of the investigations in this phase are expected to provide the hardware, knowledge and methodology for the next phase and also the reference process conditions and material properties. * Phase II concerns the development of new magnesium alloys especially suitable for extrusion and the second round of developing the processing technologies from DC casting through extrusion to heat treatment. The results of the investigations in this phase are expected to provide convincing data about the performance of extruded profiles processed via a cost-effective route for market exploitations. * Phase III comprises two aspects. On the technical front, it concerns the compilation of material data and processing data for further development and on the economic front, it concerns an objective analysis of material costs and processing costs for commercial exploitations. The project will in the end bring a variety of magnesium profiles with strong competitive advantages to the market for a wide range of applications in the automotive, electronic and aerospace industries. In addition, it will foster the supporting industries for magnesium profile manufacturing, including billet casting, die-making and process control. Keywords: magnesium, casting, extrusion.
