Last October, the Arizona Humane Society expanded the nursery's benefits by introducing Boots, a 12-year-old Chow/Golden Retriever mix who became their first official kitten nanny.

Once a week, the senior gray-muzzled dog accompanies his owner Susan Juergensen to the animal shelter where he helps make 5-to-8-week-old kittens more adoptable by exposing them to new experiences – such as meeting dogs like himself – at a young age.
"One factor that can increase a cat's chance of adoption is its ability to live in homes with other pets. By socializing kittens with dogs like Boots early in life, we are able to open up an entirely new world of potential home environments to that kitten," the Arizona Humane Society said.
Boots starts by walking around the cages, sniffing the kittens. Depending on their reactions, society workers slowly introduce the kittens to him, where they climb on him, meow at him and, sometimes, even lick his face.
Arizona Humane Society spokesperson Bretta Nelson says Boots is "giving back to the animal world after his heartbreaking experiences" during Hurricane Katrina.
Boots was found in an open field in downtown New Orleans in August of 2005. He was standing in almost 10 inches of black water with foggy eyes and irate with bacteria.
"He ducked his head down when we approached, but let us pick him up," Traci Pepper, an in-field trap and neuter return coordinator for the Arizona Humane Society, told People. "His paws were almost completely de-gloved, which means the skin was completely gone. We don't even know how he was standing."
The lovable mix, then 2 years old, was rushed to a makeshift shelter set up in a parking lot in Jefferson Parish to get his bloodied, raw paws repaired.
Boots was adopted weeks after Hurricane Katrina by a worker at the shelter who had helped change his bandages during the storm.
"There was just something in his eyes, he was so relieved – he captured my heart," his owner, Susan Juergensen, said. "It's so cute; now when we go to the shelter he knows he's working. I think he's saying, 'Finally these humans have realized my talent as a nanny and given me a job!' "

Sunday Night Project TV Trailer Shoot
By Brooke
OMG today was such fun! Knew shooting with Justin & Alan was going to be crazy but had no idea what was in store. Started at 6.30am at Channel 4 studios where in a mini van picked up 16 cheerleaders (lucky driver) and drove us to an amazing country manor house outside London. The sun was shining and the location was gorgeous - perfect for the ad. Two hours for hair & make up for 16 girls was cutting it fine esp. as there were only two make up artists but we did it in time as always, and everyone looked hot. Got on set & first thing we saw was Alan Carr walking around in an exact replica of our uniform! He looked fabulous although we had to lend him a pair of legwarmers to complete the Pineapple Cheerleaders look. It was so funny, he loved being one of the squad girls!
Time to shoot and it suddenly began to pour… and we were filming outside! Can't tell you more about the ad as it's top secret but it involved dancing to Bon Jovi's 'Living on a prayer' with Alan suspended above us, and Justin running around with a machine gun. The funniest part of the day had to be when someone suggested adding a wind machine – not great when you're outside and it's pouring with rain and freezing cold. Of course the second it was turned on, all of our skirts blew up and our hair went crazy but we had to look like glamorous rock stars! Luckily it was an 80's style rock routine so our big hair actually looked quite sexy – or so the crew kept telling us! We finally wrapped at about 8pm and were back on the minibus to London – with Bon Jovi on repeat the whole way home (guess that driver's not so lucky after all)!

Hello. I have registered on this BBS specifically to reply to some of the comments made in this thread and in my friend Gina's blog. I have to say that I have been less than impressed with some of the comments that have been made by posters to this site, which rather saddens me as I fully support the goals behind it. I have also been saddened by some of the prejudice that has been displayed here.
I have a degree in astronomy. I am transgendered. I do not find that there is a connection between these two things. I love space and astronomy deeply, and when Gina commented (in a light-hearted way) about the so-called Moon Hoax, I decided to make a few points back, and linked to this site as a place where she could get a logical rebuttal of the points made in the programme she was referring to.
I did not do this to invite a harangue from people who appear to be as close-minded on this and other subjects as those who claim that the lunar landings were faked. While all sites on the internet are linked and are accessible to all- Gina is well aware of this, as she works in web design- that is not an invitation to invade a website, warp the purpose for which it was create and then insult the creator by ignoring any written or unwritten rules tha apply there. Gina is fully within her rights to close this topic- it is her website.
By your actions, you have alienated someone who might very well have been interested in the subject which I assume all of us here love- astronomy- by a less confrontational attitude, and to allow personal prejudice to intrude into what should be purely a factual and logical discussion is inexcusable. Zealotry is always ugly and counter-productive, no matter the cause.
I will not respond to any replies or comments made to this post. I will not post on this board again. Please think in future before you invade another person's website again.

I'd already decided to follow Gina's wishes & not post again on her website. If my post above regarding search engines etc was considered offensive then I apologise, sorry. I wont comment further on this thread either, except to say by & large this board doesnt condone flaming & the BA takes a v. dim view of it.
I hope Gina & the others will still use the rest of the site as a reference point at least.

2002-Apr-19, 02:24 PM
Since I manage a couple of sites and dabble in Web design, I feel I should address a couple of Web-specifics from Mel.
While all sites on the internet are linked and are accessible to all- Gina is well aware of this, as she works in web design...
Then Gina should be aware that it is possible to protect a site, requiring a password or cookie to access it. Even search engines that post images of pages (like Google) are prevented from doing so.
A decision needs to be made on how "public" you want the site to be. You can allow anyone to view a page, but restrict those allowed to post messages (as this site does).
... Gina is fully within her rights to close this topic- it is her website.
Absolutely. However, Gina might consider posting an explanation, "Thread removed because..." or "Message removed because..." just to avoid/answer shouts of censorship (again, as this site does).
Note: This advice would normally cost you, but, hey, we're all friends here. /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif

I gave the children a lot of free reign in terms of media, colors, and style in creating their artwork. It's not something I always do. But I find summer the perfect time to be a little less structured and really allow a sense of play and experimentation. I had children from Kindergarten through 9th grade in the same class. And I could not have been more pleased with the way they worked together and encouraged one another. Next week we'll be "visiting Europe" on our last stop of our animal art tour around the world.

Reverse Dieting- The What, the Why and the How!
What is reverse dieting?
It's the opposite of what we think of when we think of the word diet. Dieting carries the connotation of restriction, eating less, fewer calories. So with reverse dieting we do the opposite. It's gradually increasing calories in order to jumpstart your metabolism.
Why would you want to speed up your metabolism with reverse dieting? Its a long list, so here we go!
- To lose weight
- Improve body composition
- Have more energy
- Look forward to working out
- Improve sleep quality
- Better performance in the gym
- Handle stress a little better
How do you start reverse dieting?
This is where a nutrition coach can help. The coach looks at your current caloric intake and macronutrient breakdown along with your activity level to determine where to start. Then the calories are gradually increased.
Adding calories can be scary for some people, but the pictures below show some of our clients who have used reverse dieting to improve body composition, athletic performance, and overall well-being! The process of reverse dieting can vary from person to person and it takes patience and courage to counteract the disbelief that eating more can actually help you lose weight. Having a coach during this process is very helpful.
If you've been doing the same thing by eating less and exercising more, with no results, our coaches can help you reverse your diet

REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- The police have identified 51 victims of the Lion Air JT 610 plane. The figure was reached 11 days after the aircraft crashed into the Karawang waters of West Java.
"Last night, we had identified seven other victims. We had earlier already identified 44 victims, and this has brought the number to 51," a spokesman of the Indonesian Police Senior Commissioner Sulistyo Pudjo Hartono stated here on Thursday.
Of the identified victims, 40 are males and 11 are females. The Disaster Victim Identification team has received 185 body bags from the search and rescue team, and it has collected DNA from 609 samples.
Hartono remarked that the government had offered psychological assistance to the families of the victims. He noted that the number of body bags was not indicative of the number of bodies found by the search and rescue team, as each bag might contain body parts of different victims.

- What are adhesions after surgery appendicitis
- Symptoms of adhesions after appendectomy
- Treatment adhesions after appendectomy
Modern medicine is quite often faced with the problem of appendicitis. This operation is considered the most common surgical intervention on organs of abdominal cavity. Appendicitis is quite common in adults and in children. After such an operation may be complications. For example, adhesions.
What are adhesions after surgery appendicitis
Spikes is a film, which are formed between the internal organs. They appear due to irritation of the sheath that covers the internal organs. As a rule, adhesions affect the interaction of bodies, after which their work is difficult. For men, the spikes do not pose a serious risk, but women may be diagnosed with infertility, which, unfortunately, is not always amenable to treatment.
Symptoms of adhesions after appendectomy
This files most often have adhesions after appendectomy. The symptoms are the following
- pain it can a long time absent. As a rule it is localized in the region of postoperative scar. Most often it is pulling in nature and may worsen after physical exertion
- dyspeptic syndrome of disturbed digestion due to improper functioning of the intestines
- violation of the bowel appear constipation is no more than a day
- the complete absence of a chair for more than two days.
Possible complications of adhesions
Adhesions after appendicitis can lead to serious complications.
For example, you may develop acute intestinal obstruction. It occurs due to kinked intestine, which in turn prevents the passage of food in the intestines. In addition, possible necrosis of the bowel. Because of the violation of its blood supply that is triggered by perezhitoe spikes artery, the wall of the intestine die. This condition requires immediate removal of this section of the colon.
Diagnosis of the disease
In the case of the onset of symptoms of adhesions in the abdominal cavity and the presence of operative intervention in appendicitis, it is necessary to conduct diagnosis.
The first requires a clinical blood test that will indicate the presence of inflammation in the body. It is also necessary to conduct the ultrasound examination of abdominal cavity organs.
Through ultrasound we can visualize the presence of adhesions.
This survey must be held after adequate bowel preparation.
In addition, an x-ray contrast agent. The patient on an empty stomach should drink a barium mixture. The presence of filling defects of the bowel will be clear picture of the disease. Equally important diagnostic laparoscopy. For this purpose in the peritoneal cavity, we introduce a special fiber-optic tube. It is equipped with lighting and camera. Using this diagnostic method, we study the condition of the intestinal loops and determines the presence of adhesions.
Treatment adhesions after appendectomy
Adhesions after appendicitis is a fairly common complication after surgery.
Treatment of adhesions is by surgical dissection and release of the pinched loops of the intestine.
Before surgery be sure to observe the fractional consumption of food in small portions. Also is enema. If there is intoxication, intravenously administered fluids that eliminate toxins from the body. In the event of acute abdominal pain used painkillers.
Surgical treatment of adhesions after appendectomy possible by laparoscopy or laparotomy. The choice of treatment depends on the patient's age, comorbidities, number of adhesions, and presence of complications of adhesions of the bowel.

The concept of privilege, especially white male privilege has been prominent in the media and elsewhere. I will confess that I have struggled with how to respond to the concept.
Many of the discussions have stated explicitly or implicitly that white males are bad people because our privilege has led to the lack of opportunities for others. When we are told to own our privilege, it is meant that we are to feel shame for having privilege.
My instinct is to push back. I have never sought to hold onto power based on my gender or ethnicity. I also notice that privilege as it manifests in the United States may look somewhat different in other countries, including my home in Canada.
And yet I still am the product of privilege. Things haven been easier for me by being a white male, even if I have not sought that advantage.
This brings me to Amy Julia Becker's White Picket Fences. This is the book on privilege that I have been waiting for.
Becker doesn't attempt to beat people over the head with the accusation of privilege. She identifies privilege and owns it as a part of her own experience. She shares story after story of how her own privilege has given her a different experience than others.
I appreciated the way that she shows the subtle ways in which privilege appears. It is about the books on our shelves and the "innocent" assumptions we make. Privilege is a reality, no matter how well-meaning or openminded we may be.
Another thing that I appreciated is that she includes disability in the discussion. Too often privilege is limited to categories of gender, ethnicity, economic status and sexual orientation. Somehow, disability is left out, even though it can easily shape the experience of the person. Becker, as a parent of a child with Down Syndrome, brings disabilities back into the conversation.
Most of all, Becker helped me to become more aware of privilege without making me ashamed of who I am. There are things I can do to be sensitive to concepts of privilege without hating myself for my gender or ethnicity.
Although White Picket Fences is about the things that divide us, it has the potential to help bring us back together. I'm thankful to Amy Julia Becker for talking about this in away that draws people in rather than driving them away.

CMU women take early lead but lose 63-54 against Baker
FAYETTE, Mo. - Baker (Kan.) rallied from a seven-point halftime deficit to defeat Central Methodist, 63-54, on Saturday in Heart of America Athletic Conference action. Eagles' coach James Arnold falls to 2-2 against the Wildcats inside Puckett Field House.
Central Methodist (10-9, 3-8) used a 7-0 run, with five points coming from Morgan Vetter, to stake to a 10-6 lead 4:04 into the contest. The Eagles led by five points three times during an eight-minute stretch in the period, and a Vetter jumper gave her team a 30-24 advantage with 4:59 left before halftime. Baker's (13-8, 6-5) Jesse Ellis and Mary Rose Gonzalez increased the margin back to seven at intermission.
Vetter scored 13 of her team-high 15 points in the first 20 minutes, while Ellis tallied eight rebounds, including seven on the offensive glass. Meanwhile, the Wildcats shot 0-of-10 from beyond the arc in the period and just 1-of-17 in the game.

Everything I Never Told You: A Novel by Celeste Ng
Penguin Group (USA), 2014
Description (from the author's website)
Lydia is dead. But they don't know this yet . . .
So begins the story of this exquisite debut novel, about a Chinese American family living in 1970s small-town Ohio. Lydia is the favorite child of Marilyn and James Lee; their middle daughter, a girl who inherited her mother's bright blue eyes and her father's jet-black hair. Her parents are determined that Lydia will fulfill the dreams they were unable to pursue—in Marilyn's case that her daughter become a doctor rather than a homemaker, in James's case that Lydia be popular at school, a girl with a busy social life and the center of every party.
When Lydia's body is found in the local lake, the delicate balancing act that has been keeping the Lee family together is destroyed, tumbling them into chaos. James, consumed by guilt, sets out on a reckless path that may destroy his marriage. Marilyn, devastated and vengeful, is determined to find a responsible party, no matter what the cost. Lydia's older brother, Nathan, is certain that the neighborhood bad boy Jack is somehow involved. But it's the youngest of the family—Hannah—who observes far more than anyone realizes and who may be the only one who knows the truth about what happened.
A profoundly moving story of family, history, and the meaning of home, Everything I Never Told You is both a gripping page-turner and a sensitive family portrait, exploring the divisions between cultures and the rifts within a family, and uncovering the ways in which mothers and daughters, fathers and sons, and husbands and wives struggle, all their lives, to understand one another.
My Review (4 Stars: Liked it a lot!)
I read this book over the course of three days and thought about the Lee family in between. It is 1977, when girls slathered themselves in baby oil and sunbathed. (I hope they don't do that now.) I can relate to this time period.
This story is about a mixed family, Chinese-American and American. The parents Marylyn and James and their two older children Lydia and Nathan, because of their mixed origins, do not fit in with American culture at the time, despite their efforts. Their third, youngest, child, Hannah, struggles to fit in with her, seemingly self-absorbed, family. Lydia is found dead in the nearby lake. Reading Everything I Never Told You gives the back story leading up to this tragic death.
When I finished this novel, I think my jaw dropped open. I was very impressed with author, Celeste Ng's, style. She shows this family's dynamic very well. This is a sensitive and touching debut novel. We are clearly shown the disconnect between parents and their children and with each other. While this is fiction, it seems like a very realistic story. In the end, it is a heartbreaker.

Mooring and Anchoring
This category encompasses the following activities:
- Operational use of berths, moorings, anchorages including the presence of these structures and vessels using them. Includes consideration of vessels when berthing/berthed, mooring/moored, anchoring/anchored.
- Includes impacts from anchors and impacts of boat when at anchor or mooring.
- Does not include impacts from boats getting to and from moorings, these should be assessed in the relevant 'participation' category.
The activity of anchoring generically and use of allocated anchorage areas where ships are permitted to anchor inside and outside harbours/ports. Includes consideration of vessels when anchoring, anchored or weighing anchor
Environmentally Friendly Moorings (EFMs), or eco moorings, are mooring systems designed to have less impact on the sea bed than conventional swing moorings. They aim to minimise interaction with the seabed to prevent abrasion and therefore the potential to damage sensitive habitats. Pages are now available on the RYA website dedicated to EFMs. These pages are a collaborative effort, designed to provide a useful resource to explore what EFMs are, the types and manufacturers of them, to give examples of existing trials and projects, to host a variety of reports and study documentation, and to provide a means of collating further information as the EFM landscape evolves.
Potential Impacts
- Abrasion/disturbance of the substrate on the surface of the seabed
- Penetration and/or disturbance of the substratum below the surface of the seabed, including abrasion
- Physical change (to another seabed type)

It's National Whiskey Sour Day. And You Thought It Was Just Another Day
Today is National Whiskey Sour Day. If you don't know how or why that's the case, don't worry – nobody else seems to either. It's not as OK to not know how to make a whiskey sour, though, and practice makes perfect.
You won't remember anything you learned, of course, because of how intoxicated you got. You will, however, have come up with a reason to drink on a Tuesday, thus making you still not an alcoholic. That calls for a whiskey sour!

Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. offered reflections on one of his predecessors Friday night, and in the process he illuminated his own place on a Supreme Court that he said had grown both more and less political.
He also made two lighthearted promises. He will not run for president, he said, and he will not grow a beard.
His subject was Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes, who rejoined the court in 1930 after a glittering career in public life. Hughes had been governor of New York, an associate justice of the court, the Republican nominee for president (losing narrowly to Woodrow Wilson), secretary of state and a Wall Street lawyer who argued more than 50 cases in the court.
"He was an important public figure," Chief Justice Roberts said. "The beard helped. He looked like God."
The evening, sponsored by two historical societies, took place at New York University's law school. It started with a breezy overview of Hughes's career by Chief Justice Roberts, who noted that his subject's first confirmation to the court, in 1910, had come easily.
"A week after his nomination, the Senate unanimously confirmed him during a five-minute session without any hearing," Chief Justice Roberts said. "Those were the days."
The second confirmation, in 1930, was closer, a consequence of Hughes's Wall Street ties during the Great Depression. The vote was 52 to 26. Chief Justice Roberts was confirmed by a wider margin, 78 to 22.
The evening concluded with a conversation between the chief justice and Robert A. Katzmann, the chief judge of the federal appeals court in New York.
Chief Judge Katzmann asked how a candidate with Hughes's political background and paper trail could have been appointed to the court. Chief Justice Roberts responded that "the court was not regarded as such a partisan football" back then.
"A lot of the nominations of this time were Republican presidents appointing Democrats and vice versa," he said. "It wasn't regarded as a place where partisan matters would be worked out."
On the current court, for the first time in history, all five of the Republican appointees have voting records to the right of all four of the Democratic ones.
It used to be routine, too, Chief Justice Roberts said, for presidents to appoint prominent public figures to the court. In 1941, the year Hughes left the court, Chief Justice Roberts said, "you had two senators on the court, a representative, three former attorneys general."
The court that decided Brown v. Board of Education, the 1954 decision banning segregation in public schools, included Chief Justice Earl Warren, a former governor of California; Hugo L. Black, a former United States senator; William O. Douglas, who had been chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission; and Robert H. Jackson, who had been the attorney general.
By contrast, Chief Justice Roberts said, until Justice Elena Kagan arrived in 2010, "every single member of the court had been a court of appeals judge."
He did not comment Friday on the significance of the narrowing of the career paths, but in 2009 he said the development was a positive one, resulting in decisions with "a more legal perspective and less of a policy perspective."
On Friday, Chief Justice Roberts said the court is now the last stop in a public career. "I can safely say none of us are running for president," he said and then paused, apparently thinking better of the categorical statement. "I can only speak for myself," he said. "You never know."
Hughes was the first leader of the court to preside in its current courthouse, which is celebrating its 80th anniversary. The New York Times reported on the opening session, Chief Justice Roberts said, describing how Justices Owen J. Roberts, Louis D. Brandeis and Pierce Butler had adjusted to their new surroundings.
"Justices Roberts and Brandeis fingered new appliances on the bench and explained them to Justice Butler," Chief Justice Roberts said, quoting the article.
For his part, Chief Justice Roberts concluded that journalism, at least, has an unchanging quality.
"Even then," he said, " 'all the news that's fit to print' included gentle jabs at our technological prowess."
Chief Justice Roberts is sometimes said to lead the Supreme Court, but he said his position had only limited power.
"I have the same vote as everybody else," he said. "I can't fire them if they disagree with me. I can't even dock their pay."
Still, he added: "Somebody does have to moderate the discussion."
The chief justice, he said, also has a greater public role. "Somebody does have to represent the institution to the outside world and to the other political branches," he said.
Chief Justice Roberts, 60, has just completed his first 10 terms, and Chief Judge Katzmann asked about his plans for the next 10.
"I think about the cases for the next sitting the Monday after Thanksgiving," Chief Justice Roberts said, "and not much beyond that." The two-week sitting will include cases on voting rights and affirmative action.
He did make one concluding commitment. "I'm not going to grow a beard," he said.

I did a bad, bad thing today. Lee and I succumbed to peer pressure and took Walker to the barber shop for a little trim. See before pic on left.
We felt better about the whole experience because Peggy was cutting in - the sweet lady who does Walker's daddy and papaw's hair. And she promised to leave as much as possible. And not to use the buzz equipment, just scissors. Sigh...she was wonderful. But the Baby Mullet has left the building. And I fear it took the Baby with it.
Here a couple of shots of the work in progress. It started out super chill, but ended in tears. Lee's mom (Mingie) said he cried during his first few haircuts, so I'm sure it's only a matter of time before Walker loves going to see Peg for a little trim. See finished product on right:).
