Most winemakers will agree that cool-climate wines like Pinot Noir are the most difficult to produce. And most will agree that Jeff Stewart does so with unparalleled success. Jeff comes to Buena Vista with over 15 years of achievement in cool-climate viticulture and his focus on gentle handling of the grapes and temperature moderation produces wines with complexity, character and depth.

About CarnerosView a map of Carneros wineries
Technically a part of Napa Valley, the Carneros region straddles both Sonoma & Napa counties. It's the Napa region closest to the San Francisco peninsula and the San Pablo Bay, which is instrumental in controlling the climate of the area. The winds from the San Pablo bay create a cool weather pattern ideal for growing Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
Notable FactsBoth Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from Carneros are delicate, yet complex, with firm structure and acidity. And while the pair are the most popular varieties of the region, some winemakers have branched out, particularly with Syrah. The cool climate Syrah of Carneros is well structured and stylistically similar to Syrah from the Northern Rhone, though often fuller-bodied.
About California
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

Comments about oreilly Take Control of Maintaining Your Mac, 2nd Edition:
Take Control of Maintaining Your Mac is one of three books by Joe Kissell about taking care of your Mac. The others are Take Control of Trouble Shooting Your Mac, and Take Control of Speeding Up Your Mac. Together these books provide the information you need to care for your Mac.I recommend that you read Take Control of Maintaining Your Mac first. It is basic and may reduce your need for the other two.Take Control of Maintaining Your Mac does not prescribe what you must do. It provides you with the information you need to decide what you want to do knowing the advantages and disadvantages of all the options available.Joe Kissell urges you to create a maintenance plan, and a schedule that you will follow to make sure it gets done. He advises you to start on the right foot by installing the latest software and cleaning out "cruft."Joe Kissel says, "The term 'cruft' is hacker slang for digital detritus obsolete, extraneous, or otherwise useless files that have accumulated over time and now do nothing but take up space. By removing cruft, you can recover valuable disk space, increase the speed of backups, file searches, upgrades, and disk diagnostics, and reduce the chance of software conflicts." He warns you about items not to touch. Everything is written in language that we can understand in an informal manner that is easy to read.Where experts hold different of opinions, Joe Kissel has invited different experts to express them. Six experts provided their opinions of the importance of removing cruft.There are chapters about daily tasks, weekly tasks, monthly tasks, and yearly tasks. There is also a chapter about things you have heard about that you might never need to do.Take Control of Maintaining Your Mac ends with a listing of resources where you can learn more, and a "Periodic Task Checklist of Daily, Weekly, Monthly, and Yearly Tasks."I recommend it for every Mac user who does not now have their own plan and schedule for maintaining their Mac.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

About Me Developer, Educator
Take Control of Maintaining Your Mac provides a series of steps and activities that can done on a periodic basis to prevent slowdown and/or crashes of your OSX based computer. The book lives up to its promise of providing a clear, concise and straightforward approach that explains why to carry out particular routines, what their impact is and assembles these into programmes to be carried out on a daily, weekly and yearly basis. The book is brief, but concise and provides copious references for further explanation or discussion along with links to applications to automated most of the processes.The target audience for this volume would be individuals new to OSX and the Mac looking for a smooth and secure computing relationship. This is the second edition of the book and it is current as of writing. The advice is sound and prudent and where the author senses that there might be some room for debate he solicits advice from others and shares their comments. I would recommend this volume to novice users. As the author states, he has authored similar volumes on troubleshooting and on optimising OSX and more advanced users might well be directed towards these. All of the volumes are short and directed towards the specific stated intent. They are priced accordingly and would well form a fine bundle priced at three for the price of two.

text: I would've loved to see Collison in this draft. I think he has more upside than either Conley or Law. He's a tough kid who breaks ankles and drives and dishes. He'll be a high lottery pick next year. I'm not sure if I'm in love with the idea of drafting Tomic. I've never seen him, but his "Highlight" film doesn't really impress me. He is tall though. YouTube - #4 Ante Tomic Highlights I've actually seen Stuckey play live a couple of times out here in Washington. He reminds me of a slightly more athletic Flip Murray. Can he play point? I don't know, but the dude can score, and he's got sick handles.

Right now I'll be glad to get ANY ROI. :-D
As a hobbyist, the best ROI in doing removals. If you do AHB, you can make even more.
So let's take honey production:Required: Honey-producing beehives (a given), great timing sometimes, the extraction tools (found in your favorite catalog), bottling, a form of marketing or a customer baseTypical revenue: Quart - $9.50, Gallon - $30 (for typical honey, more for specialty honey)Days? As long as hives have honey to take (Can someone give me your specifics with how many hives you have?)Return: $xxxx/year (notice this is not ROI, but rather gross profit from sales)
Quote from: CBEE on September 22, 2007, 11:23:59 AMRight now I'll be glad to get ANY ROI. :-DI can agree with that! :-DQuote from: Robo on September 22, 2007, 07:46:23 AMAs a hobbyist, the best ROI in doing removals. If you do AHB, you can make even more.Let's take this discussion one step further and ask the question:What is required?What is the typical charge?How many days out of the year can you do this in your area?
$40k extra per year selling 500 nucs isn't something to shy at. That's great! Especially if you can keep your day job, and just do that on some Saturdays, etc.
I'd like to put a plan together for next year to make this a profitable hobby.

By the time any of them get to me, I'll either had been murdered, bled to death or cooking the package of hot dogs over what is left of my house.
Downunder back in the 1800s the first fire brigades were private and run by insurance companies. If you werent insured you burnt to the ground or had to rely on the neighbours with buckets.
fire and police are kind of like the national guard. if we are going to be forced to pay state taxes, that's where the money should go. i was surprised to find that the fire departments in NJ, at least where i went, were volunteer. they were protecting some pretty large towns. that's ok too. our fire department is a volunteer dept and they want to keep it that way. they do a great job.

They sound like good dogs, but i just wanted a second opinion, not just from the breeder. The dogs are hip and eye certified and have hunt/retriever lines in them....
any opinions?

I have made a lot of armor but I never bother with making the dents and scrapes. Now that I'm upgrading my personal armor, I want to make the physical damage but don't want to weaken the armor.
I have read that dremmeling the damage in can weaken the plastic so I just want to make some indentations. I was thinking of either heating the area with a heat gun and then pressing a metal rod, screwdriver or something similar in to make the dent or actually heating a metal rod or screwdriver tip and then making the dents with the hot metal. Anyinsights?

The High Point University women's lacrosse team earned its first win in program history, beating Cincinnati 15-7 on Sunday at Vert Stadium. Freshman midfielder Sara Kuhlman (Cincinnati, Ohio/Mount Notre Dame) scored five goals to lead HPU and Alexis Goldman (Winter Springs, Fla./Winter Springs (St. Andrews Presbyterian)) added four goals and two assists for the Panthers.
"We definitely came out harder than last week and were ready to get our first win and it paid off," said HPU head coach Lyndsey Boswell. "We changed some things up during the week, had some different players in the starting lineup and switched some players from defense to midfield and we had a lot of speed all over the field. Lauren Hayes played great in goal. Alexis Goldman did a really good job directing draws and Sara Kuhlman did a great job one-versus-one and taking the ball to the cage."
High Point improved to 1-1 overall, while Cincinnati dropped to 1-2 overall.
Freshman Chelsea Thompson dished out three assists for HPU. Thompson and freshman defender Christie Dougherty (Rocky Point, N.Y./Rocky Point) led High Point with five ground balls each and Dougherty also added a late goal. Attacker Grace Gaeng (Bel Air, Md./The John Carroll School (Maryland)) scored the final goal of the game to push her season total to six. The Panthers outshot Cincinnati 36-17 and also took the advantage on ground ball controls (30-16). Four Panthers had two draw controls a piece and Hayes made five saves.
Cincinnati was led by Kylie Ramsland and Marissa Pierson who scored two goals each and goalie Jennifer Walsh had 17 saves and four ground balls.
High Point got on the board first with on a goal by Heather Ziccarelli (Rochester, N.Y./Rush Henrietta (Monroe CC)). Freshman Alec Perry (Lewes, Del./Cape Henlopen) scored again for the Panthers fifteen seconds later to give HPU the lead, 2-0, with 20:30 remaining in the first half and the Panthers led the rest of the way. Goldman scored her first goal of the season at the 15:52 mark and added one a few minutes later to push the Panthers lead to 5-1. Attacker Mackenzie Carroll (Arnold, Md./Severn) scored a late goal before the end of the half to give HPU a 7-4 advantage into intermission.
The Panthers pushed their lead to five (10-5), after Goldman scored with 17:01 remaining. Cincinnati cut HPU's lead to 11-7 with 10:30 remaining, but High Point answered quickly with Dougherty going coast-to-coast and netting a score to make it 12-7. The Panthers added three goals in the final 6:10 of the game to put the game away for good.
High Point returns to action Sunday, Feb. 27, with their first road game when they travel to Navy in Annapolis, Md. The game will be played at noon.

I like it a lot. The character and concept is great! you have my vote.
I do feel the need to mention that the immediate cutoffs in your halftones are a bit awkward. The piece is still extremely awesome and that issue would only effect the pickiest of people (like me!) I actually didn't even notice it the first time.

For those of you who miss my taco designs...Here's my newest obsession, fluffernutter burritos or flufferitos.
To make one, you'll need a flour tortilla, marshmallow creme, peanut butter and (optionally) fruit spread. Just spread everything on the tortilla in the order I listed everything and roll that bad boy up, pinwheel style.

It's been a while since I've mixed any pigments, but I'm sure that brown would be orange mixed with blue or any other color mixed with it's complement. So an orangey brown wouldn't amount to "orange".

Re: Dragons Blow
Umm, I kind of hate to bring this up because this is a beautiful piece and in general I'm a big fan of yours, Boots..but, doesn't this design use more than the allowed 2 ink colors?
Thanks guys! I wanted to go for something that would be complementary colors without being in your face about it, complementary colors generally have a very striking appearance, but that can make a shirt unwearable if not done right.
Re: In With the New
Very pretty, and the tiger is giving me a real nostalgia vibe, it reminds me of the tiger in Aladdin. Something about the expression on its face just brings that back.
Re: Shadow Fish
This is really nice, but I think the whale's spout detracts from the design. It doesn't seem to quite fit, and I think it would work without it.
chumpmagic wrote:I like it a lot. The character and concept is great! you have my vote.
I do feel the need to mention that the immediate cutoffs in your halftones are a bit awkward. The piece is still extremely awesome and that issue would only effect the pickiest of people (like me!) I actually didn't even notice it the first time.
Still awesome, great work!!!!
Agreed, The halftones do look a bit wonky in my comp. Since I work in illustrator, its hard to find the right settings between "color halftone" and the use of live trace to make them vector shapes. I haven't stumbled across that magical combination yet, but some day I will.
As requested by woot, I did leave my final art as gradients for them to make the halftones.

Very cool, I also gotta chime in and say, I love your screen name. I managed to watch an entire season of Doctor Who in 4 days... resulted in lots of dreams with the Doctor in them. Not that I'm complaining or anything ;-)
I like how this design looks, it manages to stand on its own without knowing the reference to the show and just look cool.
I don't know what advice I can give you about using an old school mouse, but I'd definitely suggest saving up and buying a tablet. It's totally worth it and makes designing/making art on the computer more fun and much simpler. Until then, drawing and inking designs on paper, then scanning them allows you to get crisp line art in. Mess around with it in photoshop or gimp and up the contrast can give you good line art. Coloring is easier with a mouse than line art because you can do fills which will help.

Finland has welcomed immigrants from many parts of the world and offered them opportunities to partake of a wonderful education system, but there is increasing evidence beneath the veneer of open arms lies still lingering bigotry. Abdoulmajid Hakki is proud his adopted land gave him a world class education, but it required over 500 applications before he could secure employment. "Society here seems to devote far too much of its resources to educating foreigners and far too little to employing them." There is something perversely stupid in providing excellent education to a newcomer and then displaying bigotry by not hiring the individual.
Finland's unemployment rate among minorities stands at over 20% which is the highest in any OECD nation. Most European nations are in desperate need of immigrants due to falling birth rates which leave too few hands to do too much work. It is time for Finland to open the doors of jobs as wide as it has opened its heart to refugees.

Model SNP development based on the complex oat genome using high-throughput 454 sequencing technology. Biomed Central (BMC) Genomics. 12:77. Interpretive Summary: Many complications including size and complexity have hindered the development of molecular "mile" markers and the construction of a complete set of "road maps" to the oat genome. Scientist from across the globe led by the ARS Aberdeen molecular biology laboratory have developed a new method for discovering the genetic mile markers known as SNPs. This research has opened the way for large-scale discovery of additional SNP markers in oat and other crops with complex genomes. Overall this work will provide the foundation for developing genetic "road signs" for key traits affecting crop productivity and benefits to human health.
Technical Abstract: Genetic markers are pivotal to modern genomics research; however, discovery and genotyping of molecular markers in oat has been hindered by the size and complexity of the genome, and by a scarcity of sequence data. The purpose of this study was to generate oat expressed sequence tag (EST) information, develop a bioinformatics pipeline for SNP discovery, and establish a method for rapid and cost-effective genotyping of SNP markers for complex polyploid genomes. Based on cDNA libraries of four cultivated oat genotypes, approximately 127,000 contigs were assembled from over one million Roche 454 sequence reads. Contigs were filtered through a novel bioinformatics pipeline to eliminate ambiguous polymorphism caused by subgenome homology, and 96 in silico SNPs were selected from 9,448 candidate loci for validation using high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis. Of these, 53 (55%) were polymorphic on the 'Ogle1040' x 'TAM-O-301' (OT) mapping population comprising 134 recombinant inbred lines. Forty-eight of the 55 SNP markers were clearly differentiated as a single locus and 44 loci were firmly placed on the existing OT linkage map. Ogle and TAM amplicons from 12 primers were sequenced for false discovery analysis, revealing complex polymorphism in seven amplicons but general sequence conservation within SNP loci. Whole-amplicon interrogation with HRM revealed insertions, deletions, and heterozygotes in secondary oat germplasm pools, generating multiple alleles at some primer targets. Based on this observation, 36 polymorphic markers were used to analyze the genetic diversity of 34 diverse oat genotypes. Dendrogram clusters corresponded generally to genome composition and genetic ancestry. The high-throughput SNP discovery pipeline presented here is a relatively fast and effective method for identification of oat SNP markers. Additionally, current-generation HRM is a simple and highly-informative platform for SNP genotyping. These techniques provide a model for SNP discovery in other species with complex and little-characterized genomes.

I finally decided to start to work with my ROTJ blaster today. I have named my blaster "Mutt" cause it is made up of two different type of blasters. I have combined a MLC (which was ESB) plus SIDEWINDER Parts. Pretty much all that is MLC is is the Webley part and stock, otther than that the Scope, Greeblies, and barrell is Sidewinders.
Here is a pic so far......
I have to thank Sidewinder for his help in getting me the parts to make it ROTJ. THANK YOU SIDEWINDER THEY ARE AWESOME.
I only have one question the scope brackets I got from sidewinder.......how do I get the the scope into them?? lol:lol
Oh and if anyone needs a ESB Flashtube, Barrel, and Greeblies Ill sell them to ya dont need them anymore.

So let me get this straight...Jamiesann, Ford Flareside, etc..
According to you guys, if someone has liberal viewpoints, they hate America right? So that would be about half of America, right? I guess the only solution I see is Civil War 2: Back in the Habit. I call naming the new country for all of us America haters!

for the most part yes. Not all but most liberals yes they hate america. Not enough to leave, not enough to change their lifestyle. They hate it just enough to tell everyone else to change, to tell other folks to do stuff to ease their own conscience and make themselves feel better or morally superior enlightened etc. They do not understand how things work, what america was founded on, what freedom is, what other countries do. Give me virtually any popular liberal idea or stance on a subject and i can show you how they contradict themselves and both times the loser in the scenario is america, THIS IS NO MISTAKE. underlying sentament is a self loathing or have guilt complex and yes they hate america. They wont admit it or publicly say it but their contradicting opions reveal it.

I agree with Jamie, but I think libbies just hate government period. They might not hate America necessarily, but they certainly hate the government and how it runs.
I don't like how some parts of the government run and such. I'm not a huge fan of Bush, I'm more pro-choice than pro-life, and if gays get "married" and it isn't called marriage then I really don't care. That's why I consider myself moderate, because some of my views are liberal, and some are conservative. I would vote Republican before Democrat though. That's also why I laugh at you calling yourself a moderate.

Liberals ARE NOT half of America. Likewise conservatives are not the other half.
What you'll find is that the country is about 75% moderate (with a blend of liberal and conservative viewpoints), 10% liberal, and 15% conservative.
That's why the democratic party can't elect a president.
Oh yes I did say that.
Clinton was elected to his first term because Ross Perot split the "republican-leaning" moderate group. In his second term, he capitalized on momentum from his first term (largely driven by Reagan's economic juggernaut), combined with an ineffective opponent (Bob Dole). The lost more than Clinton won. Likewise in the last election, ineffective democratic challenger Kerry lost more than incumbent Dubya won.
The 75% of moderates want a hopeful president that will make their lives better. While there is some party affiliation, they'll cross lines where it serves their purpose. When things are good economically, they want a republican to make it better and keep it rolling. When the economy turns bad, they want a democrat to set up a softer landing. When the world is a safer place, they want a hopeful democrat to make it even better. When the world turns bad, they want a republican to keep them safe.
The democratic party lost touch with their constituency in the 70s, when (in the McGovern era) they went from the moderate party of the common man to being dominated and driven by it's most liberal elements. I'd offer that today Harry Truman would be a republican. They're trying to act like moderates (i.e. Hillary's media "makeover" from liberal to moderate) but they're still extreme.
Trust me, I know of what I speak. I grew up in a heavily democratic family (my godfather was a democratic speaker of the OH state house, my father was a democratic party precinct captain, I've personally met Hubert Humphery, Bobby Kennedy, and a host of local and state ). I watched my family grow more and more alienated as the democratic party grew more and more liberal (Micheal Dukakis? Geraldine Ferraro? come on.) and turned it's back on it's core constituency more and more.
This has resulted in counting on habit and ignorance to win elections. Mention eliminating the "straight party ticket" voting option and who panics? They count on automatons following union instructions and inner-city misinformation (just last week churches in Detroit told members that Dick DeVos would take away their right to vote) to drive votes.
This is the Pub. Leave common sense at the door.

However, that is theoretical.
It gets messy when conservatives get caught up in trying to legislate morality (abortion, gay marriage, etc...) and lose focus. Although I'm proudly conservative, I get torqued that conservatives get distracted with these issues. I'm pro-choice and don't feel that gays getting married threatens or weakens my marriage. That being said, I also oppose "equal opportunity" laws that are basically reverse-discrimination quota programs and "maternal lawmaking" (i.e motorcycle helmet laws, seatbelt laws, etc...) and think we need to severely reign in ridiculous lawsuits (so why DO drugs cost less in Canada? it has nothing to do with George Bush).

A liberal is one who feels a great dept to society, a dept which he proposes to pay with your money.
G. Gordon Liddy
But really, I have NO problems with liberals. I have friends and family that are libs. Good and decent people. I will hang out with them, break bread with them and enjoy their company. I just pray to God that they never regain power. I also hope that conservatives can again take over the republican party.
I have many gripes against the in power right now. I do not agree with their spending and views on ILLEGAL immigration to name a couple.
I will however, support the party in hopes of preventing the libs from gaining any power in the house or senate. I have asked many and I would like to ask you Mike. If YOU were president, what would YOU do. I'm not asking for you to tell us what Bush and congress are doing wrong. I'm not asking what you would have done different. I'm asking what your plan will be for the country in its current state starting today. Where would YOU lead the country.
We're at war
illegal immigration is out of control
N. Korea is testing Nukes
Iran pledges to wipe Isreal from the face of the earth
The recant tax cuts are scheduled to sunset in a few years
Judges are legislating from the bench
Eminate domain is stealing hard working americans homes from them
And there are muslims that vow to eliminate us as well.
My intent is not to pick you or your views apart. Only curious of your deep seeded feelings on how you think our great country should evolve. Please don't resort to insults as I truly want to understand you and other free thinkers.

I have problems with extreme liberals, and extreme conservatives.
extreme liberals = loss of amendments 2 & 14
extreme conservatives = loss of amendments 1 & 4
The only fix I see is for a third party to get more support from voters my choice is http://www.lp.org/.

I don't think that Liberals "hate America". But I do think that some Liberals have forgotten what make this country strong to begin with. They have forgotten that what made us one of the richest nations in the world is the ideal that if you're smart and/or work hard you can make a good living for yourself, but if you're stupid and/or lazy that you'll be poor. They have forgotten that the only reason we can care about the social issues they're so concerned about; helping the poor, the environment, education, ect... is because the smart and hard working people of this country have created enough wealth that we can afford to spend money on these problems.
I think it could also be argued that many ultra conservitives "hate America" because our freedoms mean that were free to do things that they consider immoral.

My aunt is a liberal and she always runs around telling the rest of my family how we are so harsh on the homeless (complaining about welfare) and how we sterio-type all of those sweet middle eastern people, so, at our last family gathering, I asked her when the last time she gave to charity was.
Didn't hear another word all night.
I love liberals...they're so cute!

International Admissions Counselor
(Se habla espanol)
ABS, Biblical Studies, The College of Biblical Studies, 2009; BS, Biblical Counseling, 2010; ThM, Pastoral Ministry and Bible Exposition, Dallas Theological Seminary, 2015
Serving with DTS since: Summer 2013
Hello! Thank you for visiting our Admissions page! I am encouraged that you are considering DTS as your next step. DTS has been life-changing for me through its community, professors, and the quality of education. I completed my first two years at the Houston campus, then I moved to Dallas, and I plan to graduate in 2015. My life was transformed by the way DTS professors carefully handled the Word of God. If you feel God is leading you into vocational ministry, I would love to meet you and tell you how DTS can train you for effective service. Please do not hesitate to give me a call or send me an email. I look forward to meeting you!
One of the many things that has stood out to me about DTS is the community. From the Houston campus to the Dallas campus you are surrounded by students, staff, and faculty who genuinely care for others. Students love to help other students in any way, shape, or form. The staff works hard to make sure students have the best experience possible. Also, the faculty make themselves available any hour of the day to help you understand the material and properly handle the Word of God. The DTS community works as a team for the purpose of serving the body of Christ.
The genuine love of the students, staff, and faculty has made DTS a great place to be as I prepare for ministry. I want to make sure you have the same experience! Please do not hesitate to contact me. We are here to serve you!
What are your hobbies or outside interests?
Since I was in fifth grade I've played the saxophone, and whenever I get the chance I still like to play it. I also like to spend time by the water, whether it is at the beach or a nearby lake.
What made you decide to go to DTS?
I could not pass up on the fact that DTS takes you through all 66 books of the Bible, and because I've seen graduates who know how to carefully handle the Word of God.
What do you do on your day off?
I like to relax by watching a good movie (after I have caught up in Greek, of course).
What are your favorite foods?
I love to eat Mexican food, as well as cheeseburgers and pizza.
What is your favorite television show of all time?
Full House! It was my favorite show growing up.
What is the best part about working in the DTS admissions office?
The other people I serve with on the team! There is a genuine care and love for others here in Team Admissions. I am encouraged daily by all of them.
What is your favorite piece of literature?
The Pursuit of God by A.W. Tozer
What is your favorite quote?
"Be prepared to pray any time, preach any time, and die any time." – Dr. Steve Strauss
What is your favorite musical artist/group/genre of music?
I enjoy listening to hymns for the depth of theology found in them. On the more contemporary side, I enjoy listening to Tenth Avenue North, Leeland, and the Newsboys. I also enjoy listening to classical music, especially Beethoven and Mozart.
Who is the person you admire most and why?
A fellow DTS grad and fellow college grad from The College of Biblical Studies, David Harrison. He mentored me throughout college and lives a life that reflects Christ.
Who is your favorite Bible character and why?
The Apostle Paul! Even in his hardest, most persecuted times, he wrote Philippians and showed us how to continue in our joy in Christ.
If you could have superhero powers, what would they be?
I would like to be able to fly to avoid bad city traffic.
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?
I would love to live in Hawaii. I went there on vacation back in 2009, and I enjoyed being surrounded by water in every direction.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
I think my boyfriend is in a similar position as you are.
He always asks "why doesn't he like me as much? How come he follows you so much?"
In my house, I see several reasons for this: His "praise" voice is exactly the same tone as his "correction" voice. For guys, this is probably a challenge! But make sure the pup can differentiate what your voice means.
Also, I feed the dog, I train the dog, I clean his eyes and ears, trim his nails, I take him to the vet. I drive him places, I socialize him, I do the "work" - the dirty and not-fun stuff as well as the play. Bf does only walk and play but I think taking a caretaker role can help you bond too with the dog. Ward wants to follow bf when he goes outside for "fun" but for any other situation, he comes to me. I think having a well-rounded role and over-arching role in your dog's life is what seals that bond. Joining a class or a group helps a lot too, as someone said.
|Can you get your dog involved into any sports so you are working together as a team? I think that really helps with building a good relationship in a fun way.
Just being male puts you in a stronger leadership role in your house. Getting more respect and deferrence. You are bigger and have a deeper voice.
This means that you need (in my opinion since you naturally have the leader role) to WORK (and I mean WORK) on also having the fun role.
And the reason I say work is it takes time and is exhausting . You need to make your voice high and happy (I'm not kidding, and it's why your wife NATURALLY has an advantage here). And you need to be PRO-active about playing tug WITH your dog.
Look at this guy tugging, it's work!
How many tricks does your dog know???? More than 20?
Listen to Michael Ellis in this video. LISTEN to his voice going higher and more 'girly' when he calls the dogs name (Cap Cap?) and when saying 'yes' and praising. TONS of treats and HIGH voiced praise.
7 month old could care less about me now
Hello everyone.
Looking to get some advice with handling a situation. Here's the back story; I got my male puppy from a breeder when he was almost 4 months old. I was living in another state from my wife (I'm in the military) and he was never introduced to her until he was about 6 1/2 months old. He used to follow me everywhere I went, had great mannerisms and focus with me. He had/has a bit of a problem with chasing his tail, which I had almost fully broke that habit, and he would rarely do it.
Now that my wife and I are back under the same roof, it seems he has no interest with me. He rarely comes to me when I call him, follows her everywhere, doesn't go outside when I say "go potty". When I come home from work, he greets me and searches the house for her. It seems like he's transferred all of his excitement/focus to her.
One of my biggest issues aside from him having no interest in me anymore is his habit of chasing his tail has come back worse than ever! As soon as she steps into the door, spin spin spin and its so hard to get him to stop. I'm afraid of this turning psychological. He almost looks stressed and pants while he chases his tail.. I give him plenty of exercise with walks, playing fetch, and time at a local dog park daily.
He also seems to be afraid of me for some reason now.. He bows his head sometimes when I put his leash on for walks. Sorry for the long post.

I'm really sorry for the situation, it's so hard to make the call sometimes.
I will say this, it's better a day too soon than a day too late. I would not wait until he is having more bad days than good, 14 years is a good long life, that's been filled with love.
I had a cat that was getting terrible nose bleeds that were getting more frequent and more severe, she was only 6 years old. Vet could not figure out what was causing them (figured it was a tumor, they could not find any polyps or anything) and I was going to Germany for 3 weeks. I was torn on what to do, as my sister was going to have to watch her while I was gone, and I didn't want her to have to make the decision for me, if things got worse, so I chose to let her go, when she was feeling good and when I could be there to say goodbye.
It's never easy, it doesn't matter if it's tomorrow, or a month from now. Honestly, if it were me, I would not want to wait until the tumor is such that he can't pass stool, and it sounds like it's getting there. Sometimes thinking about it is worse than the actual deed. On the way home from the vet after putting my cat to sleep, I felt sad, obviously, but I felt oddly at peace too. I think I knew in my heart it was the right thing to do for her.
I'm really sorry you're in this position. 14 years is such a good long life. I think quality is more important than quantity. My one cat passed from an aggressive cancer in his stomach and I wish that I'd seen the signs sooner. I was fighting so hard to save him, he was so sick at the end. I wish I could have spared him those last few days of suffering with the vets doing tests and taking his temperature and him being scared and away from his home.
|That is a very good point, Jan. Don't know why I didn't think of that too.
I'm looking at this a little differently. I just reread your parents involvement. They are elderly. My mother is elderly. The older she gets, the more she worries. She worries about things she doesn't need to, so give her a "real" problem and it's huge. I can understand the stress this puts on your parents. If it was just you, I'd say, "Do all you can to make sure the dog is as comfortable as possible, for as long as possible. When the dog get's worse and the quality of life is no longer there, let him go. Your dog, your decision."
But, he isn't just your dog. He is also their dog. You have the burden of if/when to put your dog to sleep. Your parents have the added burden that they may make a decision you disagree with. People feel guilty enough about putting a pet to sleep. Add in the guilt of going against the wishes of other family members. Your parents would not want to go against your wishes, even if they feel they are doing the right thing. That is a very unfair position to put your parents in.
From my perspective, you should either send the dog back to your parents. No strings attached. Their decision to put the boy down, when they decide. Or, keep the dog yourself and make all the medical decisions and the final decision when the time comes.
|Absolutely if you aren't ready and you don't think your dog is ready, don't euthanize yet. You know your dog, we don't. I do believe that some owners do it too early, while there is still a good chance for quality of life. And as you said, 14 is not ancient for a small dog. Your dog is really cute. Listen to yourself.

If it was unclear, I'm an adult. I live on my own across the country from all of my family. I take this dog when they're traveling for long periods, in lieu of boarding him somewhere for 2-3 months. If this dog had stopped eating, was in distress, could not void his bowels... I would end it immediately with no questions. I have no issue euthanizing this dog when its time.
My parents are scared of letting him go on too long. My mom felt horrible that they didn't catch his first round of bladder stones until he was in pain from them. She doesn't trust herself to recognize when he's suffering. I can totally understand her position; I'm in it too. I just have a larger network of vets and fellow 'dog folk' to weigh in on the old man's likely status.
Jean, thanks for your reply! We're going to try stool softeners. We had a couple of prolapse cases at the office, they were pretty gnarly. Especially when the dogs chew on them! I had two of the vets and kennel club members/vet assistants weigh in on him and they all agree... not time yet. He's in a good stretch. He'll probably get into some bad days again and then we'll re-evaluate. I'll pass on the 'adorable'. He's currently running around trying to get at my roommate's bunny. Definitely not one of his 'old man days' today!
I was going to send this as a PM - but I would be looking at - are there things you can do with his diet to make defecation easier? Sucrolose was something recommended to me when my GSD had a very small prolapse of her rectum (don't google image). I am using pumpkin to try to keep her stool softer.
Glad you use the scale - I would ask someone else (with similar but not same ideas on end of life issues - I know people who have pulled the plug on diagnosis of something that may have been fixable - so would not be asking them) to rate him as well.
I would also see if I could find information from other people who have had dogs with the tumor - and see what they say. Google, vets, I'd be looking at how this progresses and best practices.
He is adorable!!!!

|Sorry to hear the news. Its a tough decision for sure. I think as long as you feel he has some quality of enjoyment than its tough to let go. You will know when you see a drop in quality of life that is worse than the present. Hope you have some good days to say goodbye

March 2013: North Dakota's governor signs the nation's most restrictive abortion law into effect. The legislation bans abortions if a fetal heartbeat is heard, which can be as early as six weeks, and prohibits abortions over gender or genetic defects. More than a year later, the law was overturned by a federal judge. [ + - ]
October 2013: A U.S. district judge issues a permanent injunction preventing two key parts of a controversial Texas abortion law from going into effect, specifically requirements that doctors obtain admitting privileges at a hospital within 30 miles of the clinic at which they're providing abortion services and usage controls on RU486, a drug that induces abortions. The bill attracted headlines in July because it originally failed to gain approval because of a Democratic filibuster led by state Sen. Wendy Davis. Texas Gov. Rick Perry then called the legislature into a second special session to continue consideration of the bill, and it ultimately passed. [ + - ]

text: I was happy to see Lawrence Frank make timeouts and substitutions that made sense tonight he saw that JJ wasnt playing well and instead of taking out Andre to bring Monroe back in, he took out JJ and this let our twin towers do some damage. The addition of the twin tower lineup also forced Toronto bigs to actually have to account for their men on all offensive rebounding situations and Monroes ability to pass from the high post allowed Andre to flash across the baseline keeping torontos big flattened out in the low post giving Greg more room to operate and drive from the ft line. This alsoforced the guards for toronto to drop in more on greg at the ft line and allowed Singler and Bk to get some open looks. With Torontos guards and pf playing so spaced it gave Andre room to get the 8 offensive boards...its all about the spacing folks. I loved the fact that in the end when we needed the stop, Lawrence Frank had the faith in Andre to sub him in for Monroe to challenge and force Lowry into that circus floater which ended up as the stop that gave Knight the chance for the go ahead and eventual winner. The confidence that this gave Andre I think will be huge in his developement. He looked like a kid on xmas on the sidelines to end the game. He is such an emotional player that he needs those boosts right now to see his confidence bloom and you can see it in his game. Every time he makes a good play...he seems to get that extra oomph in his step. Great step forward by coach,

text: How would you rank the mens Olympic medal winning LPs from 1992 to 2010. Here would be mine: 1. Alexei Yagudin 2002 gold - do I really need to say anything. 2. Evgeny Plushenko 2006 gold- technical merit would be too strong for the others, whether you like the overall package much or not. 3. Ilia Kulik 1998 gold- beautiful amazing jumps and great style. Spins were the only iffy area, a few too many posing sections, and guys would later be doing multiple quads. Still an amazing skater, great to see him finally put it together. 4. Evgeny Plushenko 2002 gold- very strong performance inspite of a few small mistakes. Again technically nearly unmatchable outside a few noteables. 5. Tim Goebel- just because of the 3 quads, which is an amazing athletic feat. 6. Stephane Lambiel- I probably overrank him but I loved his skating. Anyway he skated far worse in 2010 and nearly medaled and was only 5 points from winning the LP against a field now lacking anything close to a prime Plushenko. 7-9. Takahashi-Plushenko-Lysacek 2010 podium- since I dont feel like arguing this again. Only will say if Takahashi didnt fall on the quad he was planets above the other 2 this year whether the judges would have recognized it or not. 10. Jeff Buttle 2006 bronze- I know he beat Lambiel in the LP phase in 2006 but he shouldnt have. 11. Alexei Urmanov 1994 gold- I actually agreed with his victory this year. Beautiful and effortless jumps and very strong presentation. Spins and footwork make him inferior to the 2006 and 2010 podium. 12. Elvis Stojko 1994 silver- a much debated runner up to Urmanov in 94. Personally I think the overall level of the two were quite close this year. 13. Elvis Stojko 1998 silver- a very gutsy performance and very strong technically inspite of the his handicapt. 14. Victor Petrenko 1992 gold- not great but was the rightful winner that night. 15. Philipe Candelero 1994 bronze- if he hadnt botched that 2nd triple axel planned near the end he might have won that night. Wonderfully inventive program but his skating is full of technique and stylistic flaws all the same. 16. Paul Wylie 1992 silver- great artistry but technically he isnt that strong for a top level skater even on a decent day. 17. Philipe Candelero 1998 bronze- lucky medal really. 18. Petr Barna 1992 bronze- bad program for him well below his artistic potential, and a bad performance to it that night.

Does any one else have this problem or have I put them on wrong? From looking at others boots they look fine to me though.
Help would be much appreciated,
