Things to consider?
Alright so I now have a job so I can start saving up and eventually get my puppy. Probably still a couple years out but I like to plan ahead and there are still some things I am thinking about.
Okay so I have already selected my breeder. I'm going to be getting a Truehaus puppy. I have only ever heard good things about them and when I look at their dogs everything just feels right. I've looked at other breeders with good reputations that are a bit closer to me but none of them have stood out as much to me. I'm not sure what it is. I was wondering if anyone could help me decide which female(s) I should look at. I really like Kalli, Terra, and Sasha, but I don't know how to read pedigrees.
They will be using Esko (or I assume they will be since they use him for all their breedings at the moment). Here is his pedigree: TRUE HAUS KENNELS GSD , DDR
Kalli's ped: TRUE HAUS KENNELS GSD , DDR
Terra's ped: TRUE HAUS KENNELS GSD , DDR
Sasha's ped: TRUE HAUS KENNELS GSD , DDR
I'm not sure exactly what I want to do with a pup. This will be my first German shepherd but I do know that I want to do competitive obedience at the very least. Possibly agility and possibly tracking. I don't think I'll do schutzhund just yet. What types of dogs do you guys think will be produced by these breedings? Anyone have any dogs from past breedings? Feel free to PM me if you'd like.
Now the other thing I was wondering about was leash reactivity. Kind of random I know but I was thinking about how so many people have made threads on here about their dog becoming reactive at 6+ months of age. I was wondering if there was anything that one can do to prevent this? I'm not the strongest person (I can control strong pulling dogs but it's not something I can do easily and I don't want to have to do it on a daily basis). So if I could do something training wise from a young age that will possibly circumvent that stage I'd really like to know so I can read up/possibly practice with my aunt's dogs.
That's all I can think of for now. Other than whether or not I should get a boy or a girl but I think I'mma just leave that one up to fate. XD

Discussion in 'November 2010' started by roscoe36, Oct 19, 2010.
Who are you calling loser, hater?!? This guy has never ever lost a playoff game.
Not fair. He was stuck on the Bucks and they didn't make the playoffs until the year he was gone.
I will now be calling Charlie Garbage. LOTTERY TICKET! He played for Tor and they got Bosh and Bargnani, he went to Milw and his ticket yielded Brandon Jennings!!!! I'm so sold on Lottery Ticket.
Woj goes at KG pretty hard about the cancer talk. Garnett's bully act goes too far - NBA - Yahoo! Sports
whatever version you believe what KG said, it is a low blow anyway. sure at the heat of the moment you and I can say regrettable things but...I'm very sure that KG knew that some topics are very touchy for CV and KG decided to attack CV's "weak spot". You do not see KG bringing up cancer thematics with others even in heated "discussions" Very UNmanly.
Well...we have 2 sides to this story. Doesn't matter what I or anybody else here believes for that matter. What matters is that if CV broke some kind of NBA code about outting the guy, then he'll be ostracized by the rest of the league. Some of his own teammates may second guess his character for such an act. Sounds like a team coming apart at the seams to me.
I'm happy Charlie brought it up. KG is an ass, always has been. We overlook too much because these guys can put a ball in a hoop. Woj's article is fantastic. KG likes to talk junk to smaller guys, in a league where you can't punch a jerk out anymore. You can bet Mahorn would have clobbered the living daylights out of him if he talked junk about Zeke or Joe. As far as a league code, who cares. When did exceptions to being a decent human being become more important than being a decent human being?
I would agree with you, but you must understand that it's easy to make your comments when you're on the outside looking in. How this will play with his fellow players in the league is another story, which I'm not so sure of the outcome. Such codes exist and cannot be ignored. Even prison inmates must live by certain "unwritten" rules, which govern their domain.
I couldn't care less about what those primadonnas think about their trash talk getting "ratted out". I'm all for trash talk, and I'm big for it too, but there are some limits to how far they should go and stuff like this is beyond that line. As both a NBA and soap opera fan I'd like as much trash talk as possible to get ratted out so I can enjoy the articles about it to my morning coffee. Keep tweeting it, CAS! Or even better, mike em all up and publish the transcripts with the box scores!
Agreed. And it's very believabke that an idiot like KG would call someone like CV a cancer patient. He's already shown that he has no mute button when the voices in his head are getting stupid. Adande from ESPN.com actually wrote a coherent article this time with a similar viewpoint. Time to drop 'cancer' from sports lexicon - ESPN
Actually, I agree with you. However, this may blow up in CVs face...
Having courage and character are never easy. We beat the crap out of Charlie for not being a great basketball player (I am just as guilty as the next guy for this), but when we make excuses for attacking him as a person, then it shows how small and petty we are. I could care less what the other several hundred emotionally retarded man children in the league think about "ratting out". I applaud Charlie for not caring either.
I would like to believe that I would stand up to basketball players or prisoners when my reputation has been tarnished. It is easy to state such claims here on a Forum which is safe from the reality of their situations. People who know me would tell you that my character is my main strength. However, that character is not being judged in prison, nor as a multi-million dollar athlete.
I have a thing I *try* to live by. If I don't respect me, no one else will. Let KG bully you, and KG will always bully you. Charlie could have punched his lights out. Charlie's career would be over, and KG would go into the HOF. People would see KG's poor behavior, but know it is not worth a punch in the face. What CV did will follow KG around for a long time. It's a much nicer revenge for someone who has had it coming for a long time. Good for Charlie. An inspiration to us all.
I could have typed this same response. I just hope things work out for CV. I just don't know if they will.
I'm agree with what BRANDON JENNINGS said.. (I think it was him..) He said something about that the mistake Charlie V did, was taking it to TWITTER.. What I say is that If it's something who is really hurting you, go and FIGHT GARNETT right there man!!!! Don't wait till your are in home to tweet about it.. BE A MAN AND STAND for what you believe.. yes, it may be a technical foul (or more than one..) but then when Charlie V goes home (after getting rejected from a game that was already lost..) go and tweet about what it happend, saying you are sorry that your temper blow up but you have known people who died from cancer and bla bla bla.. He did things very wrong.. I don't care what KG said to him man.. I mean.. in Soccer is really common that people insulting each other (things like "motherf....r" bla bla bla) You (Charlie V) are a professional nba player, you have to be ready to hear ANYTHING, even things like that or even worse.. you have to keep it cool and focus in the game.. Charlie V sucks.
Kevin Garnett voted NBA's top trash talker - Ball Don't Lie - NBA - Yahoo! Sports Looks like the Celts have a thing with thrash talkers.
But you didn't. Uncertainty is part of existence. If we want liberty, we have to be willing to sacrifice comfort for it.
If CV really felt upset, he could have arranged the meeting between himself and Garnett. Like his play though, he probably would back down from a real confrontation. Being upset was fine, but posting it on twitter, instead of a confrontation speaks volumes. I will not honor the man until he shows his courage with his inspired play on the court.
My personal biases: I do not like Chuckles GI've run hot and cold on KG over the yearsThe Pistons are so far out of it and Sheed playing with BOS last year has softened my dislike of himI think I've laughed every time I see the cancer patient line in printI don't see that it is more plausible that KG called him a cancer patient instead of a cancer to his team and league. Why is option A so rational but option B isn't? Clearly they were having a long back and forth and saying either one of them seems reasonable. I find KG's version to be believable because it is what I've seen since he's been here. The players are always right in these instances. I've lost people close to me to cancer but do not get offended at the references to it. Nemo is right, CG tucked his tail and tattled. Mahorn would punch KG because he called him soft not out of some faux outrage over the disrespect to cancer patients.
Separate names with a comma.

Eat and Enjoy!
Traditional Greek food as cooked by Greek mothers!! Delicious and easy recipes!!
thanks for sharing. Looks superb.
Thanks, Umihoney! Yes it's very simple, but refreshing in these summer months.
This is my favorite salad. I am Greek-Cypriot and this salad is an every day dish in our home. Delicious!!
It looks delicious, but I think it would be even better with a sprinkle of lemon juice or red wine vinegar along with the olive oil. Would that make it non-greek?
That would be fine, Patricia :) People often add vinegar, but not really lemon juice. It's a simple but delicious salad and dipping your fresh bread into it just makes it even better!
Thanks for your delicius recipies.
I make this recipe for my family on a regular basis..absolutely love it. Thank you for sharing

Sony Announces PS4, Loves on Developers, Unveils Mobile Vita PS4 Gaming
Jason Mick
February 20, 2013 7:01 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Console packs an x86 GPU, 8 GB of DDR3, a powerful GPU, and a custom processor for background processing
Sony Group President Andrew House kicked off Sony Corp.'s (
) 6 p.m. press conference with the expected news, commenting, "The demand for a new console were clear....Today we will give you a glimpse into the future of play. The most personalized gaming experience available today... the most powerful platform ever.We believe that PlayStation 4 represents a shift from thinking of a box or console... PlayStation is the best place to play."
Sony's fourth generation console
, which will enter the eigth generation of console wars has been in the works since at least 2007. The console packs a new x86 processor replacing the International Business Machines, Inc. (
) derived CELL processor from the PS3. The system has 8 GB of DDR3 RAM (unified) shared by the GPU and CPU. Sony did not specify the hard drive size, but it promises it is "huge".
The new controller has a light bar, which is recognized by a 3D camera on the console, allowing motion control (similar to the Wii, Kinnect, etc.). The new controller also features a headphone jack and share button, as rumored. The controller also features a power button that can pause games; all games will be equipped with power save features.
Sony DualShock 4 Controller
Games can be downloaded while the console is in the low power/background mode. The background processing is handled by a secondary "custom" chip. Lead architect Mark Cerny explains, "[Our] long-term vision is to reduce download times to zero... if we know enough about you we know what game you'll purchase next and download it in the background."
There's also continual support for hardware video compression when the console is on.
The console also supports using smartphones, tablets, and the PlayStation Vita as controllers via custom apps on the latter two (specific platforms were not announced). Most PS4 titles will be playable on the PlayStation Vita as a secondary screen.
For sharing Sony is pairing up with Facebook, Inc.'s (FB) ubiquitous social network and Ustream. Describes Mr. Cerny, "By combining the PS4, the PlayStation Network, and these social platforms, our goal is to become the social platform for gaming."
One thing Sony views as key to the upcoming console's success is to woo developers big and small. Much like Apple, Inc. (
) Sony made it clear that it's all about the developers and will promote small third party studios and big studios alike via abundant resources and a set of accessible APIs.
For big end studios, there's plenty of room for creativity; high end game titles are expected to feature characters with up to 30,000 polygons. Some of the high end games shown off included Killzone: Shadowfall, inFAMOUS: Second Son, Driveclub, Deep (Capcom Comp., Ltd. (
)), Final Fantasy (unnamed) (Square Enix Holdings Comp., Ltd. (
)), Watch Dogs (Ubisoft Entertainment SA (
)), a Diablo III port (Activision Blizzard, Inc. (
)), and (now-independent) Bungie's new title "Destiny".
"And I don't know why [Apple is] acting like it's superior. I don't even get it. What are they trying to say?" -- Bill Gates on the Mac ads

NIH Academic Research Enhancement Award (AREA) Program (R15)
Goals of the Program
Key Features
Related Resources
Program Announcement
Receipt Dates
Standard application deadlines
AIDS-related research deadlines
There are two levels of eligibility for AREA grants: the eligibility of the institution and the eligibility of the principal investigator (PI).
Institutional Eligibility
Principal Investigator Eligibility
In addition to the steps you would take to prepare any NIH research grant application, you should consider the following tips when developing and preparing your AREA grant application.
- Find the NIH institute or center (IC) that supports your area of research via the NIH AREA Grant Research Objectives website.
- Contact the AREA representative from relevant ICs to inquire about their interest in supporting your research project, as well as the IC's funding plans for the AREA program for the fiscal year in which you will be applying.
- Be aware of the unique application submission requirements and review criteria for AREA grants that allow reviewers to assess how each application addresses the goals of the AREA program.
- Remember that this is a research award, not a training or fellowship award. The application should include plans to expose students to hands-on research but it should not include didactic or training plans.
- Request your entire budget in the first year of the award. Because AREA grants are multi-year funded (MYF) awards, the entire budget, for all years of the award, must be requested in the first budget year. If the direct costs for all years of the award are $250,000 or less, you should complete the PHS398 Modular Budget form. If the direct costs for all years of the award are over $250,000, you should complete the Research and Related Budget form. For more information, please see the "R&R or Modular Budget Component" section of the AREA program announcement.
For scientific and funding-related questions, contact the relevant NIH IC AREA Contact.
For general AREA program and policy-related questions, email email@example.com.
For questions regarding application instructions, contact GrantsInfo.
For questions regarding eRA Commons registration, tracking application status, and post-submission issues, contact eRA Commons.
To volunteer to serve as a reviewer at CSR, send your biosketch to firstname.lastname@example.com with "R15" in the email subject.

I need to drag out the kits and start figuring out what needs to be done and get it in progress.
Glad to see PG found a new on-line home. Just checking to see where the PPSh-41 kits (including my SBR project) are in line for production. Keep up the good work.
I would be intrested as well!
They are fairly inexpensive from TNW/MGS but they do not make an SBR version with the original length shroud and barrel. That is why we come to you Stan.
And those other two PPsh parts kits and IO receivers with short shrouds and long barrels are mine. Any chance of anything happening with them?
Tim DuPertuis
I know you are busy with the RPD projects but I was wondering if you have had a chance to dig out the PPSh's collecting dust in your shop. Let us know if and when you think you will be able to get to those builds. As mine will be a SBR I need to get cracking on paperwork. Thanks.
Any update on the status of the PPSh-41 builds you have? I know you have mine and a few others. My parts are going on their two (2) year anniversary at your shop. I want to do an SBR and as you know the form 1 will add some aditional time to the process. Please let us know what to expect on these projects.
You are coming up on your 3 year anniversary with my PPSh-41 kit. Take her to dinner and buy her some flowers. Mark

There, whenever he needed to communicate with Harry, he would send some tropical birds to 4 Privet Drive. The birds were said to barely fit through Harry's window. After Harry wrote to Sirius to tell him that his name ended up in the Goblet of Fire, Sirius settled down in a cave near Hogsmeade, where he could pick up newspapers as a stray dog, in his Animagus form.

Hi OP, it'll be good to get a trainer who can teach you how to properly assert yourself and discipline the Pom and not let the Pom do what it was doing or anything else that is unfair to the GSD, and vice versa. As long as one dog is allowed to do that to the other you will unlikely have peace and safety in your house. Both dogs must respect each other, no matter the size and most of all, respect you and trust you to step in for them when needed so they don't need to do that themselves. I've made the mistake of over protecting (or lack of disciplining) my little dog over my GSD till I learned that I must be fair. Once I started disallowing any dogs in the household to act unfairly to the other dogs, I got the peace I wanted, the dogs relaxed and my words now carries weight. The only position or status I elevate is myself.
Here's a good free webinar (mp4 link towards the top of the page) that may help you, even though you're past that initial meet and greet stage. It talks about introduction of multi dog households and how to do it properly. One important point made by the webinar that I practice in my own pack is all dogs must be patient and polite. There is no "alpha" dog in the pack to support or uphold. This is key to a happy household that I've no doubt you can achieve!

so in 24hr of arriving the gsd
has already shaken said pom
this isn't going to end well
Deja vu
Had to laugh a little.
Years ago we had a sweet GSD that was regularly 'attacked' and snapped at on walks be a neighbors dog. Our dog always on lead.
One day, enough was enough and Lily effortlessly caught the little white fury in her jaws just as the dog launched itself at lily's throat,
Dog wasn't hurt... Not even a scratch, but neighbor called animal control. Officer rang our doorbell. Expecting the worst, opened the door. Officer had met with neighbor. She shook her head. She said, "it's always the pampered little dog and their owners causing problem!'
Lily hated every little white dog thereafter.

OP, Jean gave you some really great advice and I'd take it to heart. The two week shut down is a great way to start implementing rules for your new dog, and give him time to adjust to your home. I would think bringing in a trainer to help you would be the best course of action so that you can make the reintroduction go smoothly and positively and hopefully set the dogs up to get along in the future.
|my boy diesel
even if the small dog barks at the big dog
the big dog has nothing to worry about so imo
shaking the pom was uncalled for the pom did not hurt him
you must control the pom but it is essential to elevate the poms status
for two reasons, one the pom is smaller and very prone to injury
so if the big dog feels elevated in pack status it may indeed feel shaking
the pom was acceptable and can be done at a whim
two the pom has been there longer although only 2 mos(???) longer
oh and a third the pom may be older
either way the pom needs to be kept from doing the barking
but it may always be that way because the small dogs feel vulnerable
around a big dog much how they feel vulnerable around toddlers
separate as everyone said but teach the big dog to give the small dog
its space and respect or the pom may be injured or even killed
|I got Max from a couple. They had the mother and father and 3 other chihuahuas. He is calm but wasn't dominate at his previous home
|This morning she is stuck in my closet. Won't come out
No one really put up with anything for too long because this dog was just adopted 2/1. Today is 2/3.
Where did you get Max from? What is his background? You've had the Pom for only 2 months? What is her background and exposure to dogs?
For right now these dogs, given your knowledge of them and what has transpired, should not be together until you bring a good, positive based trainer in. Crate, rotate. Feed separately and crated goes without saying but I am saying it anyway.
Max needs a shut down to help him out: http://www.bigdogsbighearts.com/2_week_shutdown0001.pdf
Walks will be a good thing in the future. It is too chaotic there - think sensory overload for both dogs - to deal with anything right now.
Since they will be separated you don't need to worry about carrying her past him - but that seems to increase interest - my cat on the floor, no big deal, me carrying the cat, and everyone is all up in our business.
From here on out - before you do anything - take a dog out to potty, give a treat, ask is this setting the dogs up to succeed. But for now keep them apart, and safe, get a trainer - here are 2 --->. http://www.karenvance.com/
|Harry and Lola
Poor Max, he tried really hard and put up with the Pom's aggressiveness for quite some time. Yes, he had enough. It is important the Pom realises that Max is part of the pack and he will not hurt her so long as she behaves properly. If the Pom continues to push Max and it happen again, do as you did - separate them but DO NOT cuddle and make a fuss of the Pom or Max. Separate them, put them both on lead and treat each one the same. If you make a fuss of the Pom after Max has told her off, then she will keep doing this as she gets rewarded with owners attention after making Max react.
Also, I am a firm believer in walking together, dogs that generally walk together - bond together, so keep persevering with your walks and don't put up with any bad manners from either of them - tell them it is 'walking time' and just keep moving forward.

Hi all,
I am looking into being a TEFL teacher. My motivation is to get out of the US and be able to live and work legally overseas. (preferably Eastern Europe or East Asia, but will settle for S.America)
The biggest strike against me is that I have no college degree and can't afford to get one. (a real one anyway)
I have a high IQ and book smarts but no related experience and a pretty pathetic job resume. I also just turned 40.
I've read some of the more recent threads here but I know that international laws and standards can change quite often. So does anyone have the latest info on what countries would be easiest for someone like me to get work? I know that Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Western Europe, and now Thailand require degrees. But other than China, Indonesia & Mexico (3 countries I'd rather avoid), what countries are still accepting non-degree holders? And with this global recession, has supply exceeded demand, thus making potential employers much pickier?
I'm also very confused by the myriad of options for getting a TEFL cert. Even though it's cheaper, I'd prefer not to get it online as I believe in-person training would be more useful. But where can I find the best deal that is also reputable? Should I train before I leave the US or should I take one of the overseas courses? For example, there's a 30-day TEFL course here in Madison, WI but it charges $2600! I know there's got to be cheaper ones elsewhere. There's at least a couple in Prague that look very attractive (TEFL Worldwide that I see advertised everywhere & "LanguageHouse") and charge around 1400 Euros. Then there's the ones in Thailand that are very affordable (around USD 1200) but I heard you now need a college degree to teach there.
My biggest fear is that I'll spend the money to fly over & train only to run out of money & have to crawl back to the US for lack of legally available jobs.
If anyone can give me some up-to-date advice I'd greatly appreciate it.

Although each state determines the path to becoming a Dental Hygienist, becoming certified and licensed is the first step towards an exciting and lucrative career. No previous experience is required prior to becoming a dental hygienist but a plethora of training opportunities are readily available whether land-based or online.
A dental hygienist is the first face a patient sees and is the connection between the dental profession and the community. The majority of dental hygienists have at least an associate's degree and a bachelor's degree and certification are available. For those interested in academia like teaching or research particularly, a master's degree is an option. Students interested in getting an associate's degree have the option of community college or technical school located across the United States.
Dental Hygienist Schools in Alabama
- Dental Assistant
Fortis Institute can give you the skills you need to train for a career in the healthcare field.
* Programs vary by location
* Please contact each individual campus for accreditation information
- Dental Assisting
What Does a Gadsden AL Dental Hygienist Do?
The dental hygienist is responsible for the first steps in preventive care when a patient comes into the dentist's office. The following is a short list of dental hygienist responsibilities:
- Pre-procedure care
- Dental patients
- In-office treatments
- Post procedure care
- Removal of soft and hard deposits from the patient's teeth
- Examination of teeth and gums to determine whether oral abnormality or disease are present
- Strip the teeth of tartar, plaque and stains
- Root planning
- X-rays
- Applies fluoride or sealants to deter cavities
In addition to the above, in some states, dental hygienists are able to administer anesthetics and other functions that doctors tend to perform including removing sutures, metal restoration polishing, filling applications and periodontal dressing. Additionally, dental hygienists do take on academic responsibilities in educating patients on a regular basis. Dental hygienists do not diagnose disease but they are responsible for preparation and diagnosing laboratory tests. A dental hygienist is part of a team not only in the dental office but in the community.
Dental Hygienist Levels, Training, and Scope of Care
There are four levels of training and education available to those interested in becoming a dental hygienist. Not all levels are required to have a lucrative and enjoyable career but these options are available.
Dental Hygienist (Certification) – Certification as a dental hygienist typically takes two to three years of intensive study. The curriculum outlined in the certificate program includes both laboratory and classroom work so that students get not only academic but practical experience as well. Some of the core classes students in a certificate program will experience include:
- Local anesthesia
- Dental hygiene theory and practice
- General and oral pathology
- Dental pharmacology
- Periodontology
Dental Hygienist (Associate Level) – At the associate level, dental hygienist education advances to include supervisory experience in a dental health care professional setting. Students have the opportunity to observe dentists who have specialty areas; for example in preventive care. Students also have the opportunity to lean other clinical activities including teaching patients, conduct oral x-rays, sealing cavities and the application of fluorides for the teeth.
Most associate programs are two years of both classroom and lab training. The majority of associate course room work includes:
- Legal responsibility in dentistry
- Dental materials
- Oral biology
- Nutrition in dentistry
- Community dental health
Dental Hygienist (Bachelor and Master's Level) – Most students interested in advanced degrees tend to pursue research or teaching as an option or practice in education or public health programs. At the bachelor's level, these programs of study are considered an entrance into clinical programs. On the master's level, education, management and research are the focus.
Dental Hygienist Programs Available
There are four types of programs available for those interested in being a dental hygienist inclusive of Degree-Completion, Re-entry, Online and the Master of Science in Dental Hygiene.
The Degree Completion Program include both the certificate and associate programs that aid a student in earning the necessary credits to practice as a dental hygienist or towards a bachelor's degree. Although a person could become licensed at the associate or certificate level, the rate of pay is greater the higher the education level.
The Re-Entry Program is established for those students who started a program but didn't finish but wish to continue until completion. In most cases, the credits the student earned prior to are applied during the re-entry process.
Online dental hygiene programs are available for those individuals who lead busy lives but still want to pursue their education. Some of the benefits of online programs include 24 hour access to classroom and resources and flexibility so that the course work is manageable around the individual's regular life.
The Master of Science in Dental Hygiene is for individuals interested in research and academia that can lead to higher paying employment as they specialize in specific areas.
How Do I Become a Certified Dental Hygienist?
Gadsden AL Dental hygienists are required to take an examination. The National Board Dental Hygiene Examination outlines the eligibility requirements, test regulations, rules of conduct and testing procedures to assist those preparing for examination. Typically, the criteria for sitting for the examination include:
- Graduation from a dental hygiene school that has been accredited by the Commission on Accreditation.
- Pass the national board examination within five years before making application for license.
- Pass a clinical examination that is administered by the Central Regional Dental Testing Service, the Northeastern Regional Examining Board, the Western Regional Examining Board or the Jurisprudence Examination specific to Minnesota covering the rules and statues of the Board of Dentistry within five years prior to applying for licensure.
It is necessary to pass all of the above in order to secure licensure through examination. There is also the option of becoming licensed through credentials by:
- Holding or having held a license in a Canadian Province or another state, in good standing;
- Active practice for more than 2,000 hours of the previous 36 months in a US government service, Canadian Province or another state; and/or
- Having passed an approved board clinical examination for licensure in a Canadian Province or another state.
The Gadsden AL Dental Hygienist
Whether you plan to stay and work in Gadsden AL or move elsewhere your Gadsden AL dental hygienist certification and training will qualify you for jobs anywhere in the United States. The dental hygienist career is filled with opportunity starting from certification, bachelor level or with an advanced degree. A career in dental hygiene is stable with great income and benefits. The growth potential within the field is expected to grow exponentially over the course of the next five years. Being a dental hygienist is a great opportunity for both personal and professional development. A dental hygienist is the first person that a patient or an individual in the community sees and experiences. A dental hygienist not only attends to the patient but educates them in the process as to the benefits of good oral health. Whether an individual gets certified, pursues an associate's degree or goes on to secure an advanced degree, the opportunities for a licensed dental hygienist are promising.
There are many online resources that will assist in selecting the right school and in getting licensed through your state of residence.
American Dental Assistants Association
The American Dental Association's Joint Commission on National Dental Examinations offers certification examinations that are accepted throughout the United States.

"The Democrats want Saddam back" and other Coulterisms
Research ››› ››› NICOLE CASTA, KATIE BARGE & ANDREW SEIFTER
In her July 1 column, titled "Saddam In Custody -- Moore, Soros, Dean Still At Large," right-wing pundit Ann Coulter asserted, "[T]he Americanization of Iraq proceeds at an astonishing pace, the Iraqis are taking to freedom like fish to water. ... It's hard to say who's more upset about these developments: the last vestiges of pro-Hussein Baathist resistance in Iraq or John Kerry's campaign manager." Coulter's third paragraph? "The Democrats want Saddam back."
Before reaching her eventual conclusion regarding the Democrats -- "it's no surprise they want Saddam Hussein back. He made the Democrats seem moderate by comparison" -- Coulter managed to distort and/or misrepresent The New York Times; Senator John Kerry (D-MA); financier, philanthropist, and political activist George Soros; and former presidential candidates Howard Dean and Wesley Clark.
First, Coulter mocked a June 27 New York Times article titled "For Iraqi Girls, Changing Land Narrows Lives," writing, "True, they don't have to run from Odai's rape rooms anymore. But apparently not a single Iraqi female has been admitted to Augusta National Golf Club since the liberation!" Apparently Coulter did not read past the headline of the Times article, which reported continuing rapes in Iraq: "Parents are so rattled by reports of rapes and kidnappings that they keep their girls under closer watch than ever. ... Everything now depends on whether the violence subsides. ... Nearly everyone seems to have heard about girls who have been raped."
Second, Coulter mocked -- and misrepresented -- Kerry's poll numbers: "According to a recent New York Times poll, after $60 million in warm and fuzzy TV ads about Kerry, 40 percent of Americans have no opinion of him. In other words, the ads are working! So Kerry will be sitting out the actual campaign this year." While The New York Times' Adam Nagourney and Janet Elder reported on June 29 the results of a New York Times/CBS News poll (that 36 percent of Americans surveyed said they had "no opinion" of Kerry), she conveniently omitted what Nagourney and Elder wrote in the very next sentence: "That figure is fairly typical for challengers at this point in the campaign; in June 1992, 44 percent of the public did not have an opinion of Bill Clinton."
Next, Coulter adjusted a distortion she made of a past statement by Soros, but still managed to distort his words. During a June 14 appearance on FOX News Channel's Hannity & Colmes, Coulter erroneously claimed that Soros "said the reason for anti-Semitism is the Jews." In her July 1 column, Coulter charged that "Soros blames President Bush for anti-Semitism, and then proceeds directly to the usual liberal talking points attacking Israel. He says Israeli policies are to blame for anti-Semitism -- coming in a close second after the Von Trapp-like Bush." Soros's actual remarks, as the Jewish Telegraphic Agency first reported (and also mischaracterized with the headline "In rare Jewish appearance, George Soros says Jews and Israel cause anti-Semitism") on November 9, 2003:
"There is a resurgence of anti-Semitism in Europe. The policies of the Bush administration and the Sharon administration contribute to that," Soros said. "It's not specifically anti-Semitism, but it does manifest itself in anti-Semitism as well. I'm critical of those policies."
"I'm also very concerned about my own role because the new anti-Semitism holds that the Jews rule the world."
An editorial in the Jewish newspaper Forward on November 21, 2003, defended Soros's comments: "Blaming the victim? Hardly. Soros was merely joining the growing list of observers who note that the new antisemitism is a mix of old prejudices and current protests feeding on each other. ... That [Soros's comments] doesn't mean that he -- or Sharon or Bush -- should behave differently. It does mean we should all look before we leap."
Continuing, Coulter distorted a past statement by Howard Dean, writing, "And then there's Howard Dean, who thinks Bush was in cahoots with the Saudis -- and he's the centrist of the bunch." Salon.com senior writer Eric Boehlert reported on January 13 what Dean actually said as a guest on the December 1, 2003, edition of The Diane Rehm Show (a daily talk show on NPR member station WAMU in Washington, DC, with a weekly nationwide audience of 1.4 million): "When Rehm asked Dean in a Dec. 1 interview why he thought Bush wasn't more forthcoming with the commission investigating the terrorist attacks, Dean replied, 'The most interesting theory that I've heard so far -- which is nothing more than a theory, it can't be proved -- is that he was warned ahead of time by the Saudis.'" As Boehlert wrote, this was one example of how "the media has sometimes colluded with the RNC [Republican National Committee] and Republican pundits to distort Dean beyond recognition."
Finally, Coulter distorted former Democratic presidential candidate General Wesley Clark's position on abortion: "Wesley Clark ... defend[ed] infanticide as 'a private matter between a woman and her doctor.'" In a January 7 interview with the publisher of the New Hampshire daily newspaper The Union Leader, Clark was asked, "Abortion. Are there any limits on it in your mind? ... Anything up to the head coming out of the womb?" Clark responded: "I say that it's up to the woman and her doctor, her conscience, and law -- not the law. You don't put the law in there. I think, you know, that Bill Clinton said it best. He said abortion should be legal, it should be safe and it should be rare." According to The Union Leader on January 24, "Clark said he never meant to create an impression that he believed a woman should be able to receive an abortion on demand until the moment of delivery. But he said if her life or health is at stake, she should have that right, as she has had for more than 30 years under Roe vs. Wade." Even the conservative magazine The Weekly Standard noted on January 26 that Clark "does not sanction infanticide."
On the same day that her column -- which is syndicated by Universal Press Syndicate -- was published on her personal website and on The Heritage Foundation's website Townhall.com, Coulter appeared on FOX News Channel's Hannity & Colmes and compared Saddam Hussein's trial to the impeachment trial of former President Bill Clinton. Coulter said, "I just like how all the same criminal defense attorneys go from defending O.J. [Simpson] to defending Clinton to defending Saddam Hussein." As Media Matters for America has noted, this is not the first time Coulter has compared Clinton to O.J. Simpson, who was tried for murder in 1995. On the June 23 edition of MSNBC's Scarborough Country, Coulter stated that unlike Clinton, whose memoir My Life documented the campaign led by Kenneth Starr to destroy his presidency, "At least O.J. had the dignity to shut up about it and isn't out writing books denouncing [chief prosecutor] Marcia Clark."

Back to the original post.
I saw that, looked at the link, and immediately saw that the Patriot Perspective had posted it as well.
This isn't good, if pols that are supposed to be on "our" side are willing to part out the second amendment as small bargaining chips to get what they want.
"...whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."
vote them all out, vote for third party. we have had he same to partys for how long? both have ran the show before and this is where its got us. Its all a joke. best quote ever " whats wrong with the 2 party system? nothing its great! we have one more choice than a communist country"

Between the years of 1845 and 1851, Ireland experienced a great famine.
Such was the severity of the famine that an estimated 1 million people died of hunger, and another 2 million fled for countries with more food. In the year 1847, the Ottoman state -- led by Sultan Abdülmecid -- reached out to Ireland, giving not only monetary assistance but also food. The Irish were very grateful for this help.
Before the great famine, Ireland's population had been around 8.5 million. But with 1 million dying, and the emigration of another 2 million to other countries, there was a serious decline all at once in the Irish population.
We see some statues in Dublin, near the banks of the city's River Liffey, depicting people devastated by the famine. The faces on the skeletal statues reflect fatigue, extreme hunger and devastation. Modern Dubliners, walking by these statues, remember on a daily basis the difficult times that the famine brought to their country. One of the figures is a dog; after all, the famine affected not only humans, but also animals of all kinds.
The "hunger ship" anchored near the banks of the river is an exact replica of one of the ships employed to carry people away from Ireland during the years of famine, transporting them to other countries. Locals at the time referred to these ships as "floating coffins," as the eight-week journey to America would often see most of the Irish on board perishing from hunger and disease. Nowadays, tourists can board the replica to look around and try to get a feeling for what travelling on these ships was like.
When the Ottoman state provided aid to Ireland during those difficult years, the social response was enormous. We found a copy of a newspaper from 1847 and began flipping through its pages, reading articles about the assistance sent by the Ottoman sultan. In the many years to come, the Irish were never to forget this gesture.
The year the Ottomans sent their assistance to Ireland was the year the famine was at its peak, with tens of thousands dying of hunger. In those times, despite the geographic distance of Ottoman lands from the island of Ireland, it was the Ottomans who provided the most aid to the Irish. Irish aristocracy wrote a letter thanking the Ottoman sultan for his generosity. The letter today can be found in the Topkapı Museum. It reads as follows: "The below signatures of Irish noblemen, sirs, and citizens are to show deep gratitude to his majesty for the generosity shown to the Irish people. We extend our thanks for the generous gift of 1,000 sterling to meet the needs of the Irish people, and to help ease their pain."
An enduring trace of the gratitude felt by the Irish is that the Drogheda United football club still bears the star and crescent as its logo. We had the chance to meet with the president of Drogheda United, Jim Agnew, a very well-known name in Ireland. In 2007 the team became champions. Their uniforms have the same colors as Trabzonspor: bordeaux and blue. When asked about his team's logo, Agnew responded: "The star and crescent is an important emblem for this region and for the Drogheda team. There are two different views on where this symbol came from; most people think it has to do with the assistance given to this country by the Ottomans during the 1800s, and with the fact that the first ships carrying food assistance from the Ottomans were anchored in Drogheda. There are no other emblems like this throughout Ireland, so in this sense it really is unusual and unparalleled."
The port where the three Ottoman ships first anchored is called River Boyne. In those years, the British had complete dominion over Irish lands, and they did not allow these ships to dock anywhere other than in Drogheda. On the wall of one local hotel, there is a plaque thanking the Ottomans for their assistance. The plaque was hung in 1995. The local mayor at this time was a man named Frank Godfrey. We learned that he very much loves Turkey and Turks; when we met him, it felt as though we had known him for years.
He recalled: "I remember people talking, when I was little, about the three ships that came and docked in Drogheda, and how they distributed help to everyone. It was a wonderful gesture, and one that was responded to very warmly by everyone. We decided that one of the best ways to express our gratitude to the Ottoman state and the sultan would be to put up this plaque. Of course, things done years ago are not forgotten. We are talking about a time when thousands died, and thousands forced to flee to far away places, like the US and Australia. It was right at this point that the Ottoman sultan offered assistance to the Irish, who were having so much difficulty in their lives, giving them, in the process, the courage to live. So of course, this critical help elicited deep gratitude among the Irish."
We also encounter local historian Ted Greene, who has written a book about Drogheda history. He includes the letter written by Irish noblemen to the Ottoman sultan in his book. Greene talks at length about the generosity of the Ottoman sultan at the time, noting that it was a sign of the general openness of the Ottoman state, which had no regard for ethnicity or religion.
Here is some of what Greene told us: "It used to be that drought was a serious problem for Ireland. But when the famine occurred everything changed so much. At the time, the potato was the most essential food source for the Irish. When the drought occurred, the potatoes in the fields rotted. And this was when people fell hungry. Many people actually came to Drogheda, thinking maybe they could find help here. But there was very little the locals here could do, as they themselves had nothing to eat.
"At the time, the sultan's doctor in Turkey was in fact an Irishman. This doctor spoke to the sultan about the problems facing Ireland. Some of the members of this doctor's own family in Ireland had died due to hunger. At the time, around eight-and-a-half-million people lived in Ireland. This was a lot of people for such a small island. In fact, it made the island one of Europe's most densely populated countries at the time. But, of course, when the famine occurred, 1 million people died, and another million or so were forced to emigrate to other countries. The ships carrying people away were called 'coffins,' since many of the passengers never even survived the journeys away from Ireland, their bodies tossed into the sea when they perished.
"The Ottoman sultan was deeply affected by the stories he heard from his doctor and vowed to do something to help. He decided thus to send 10,000 pounds of assistance to the people of Ireland. This however never happened, because the British Queen Victoria had already sent 2,000 pounds in assistance, and she would not accept anyone else sending more than she had. So the sultan was limited to 1,000 pounds, though he decided to make up the difference by sending actual food assistance, in the form of three ships loaded with food for the Irish. These three ships first arrived at the port in Cork, but were not allowed to anchor. Then they sailed to Belfast, but once again they were forbidden from throwing down their anchors. Finally, they arrived at the port in Drogheda and were greeted with great joy here. These were terrible times.
"And so this assistance, sent by the Turkish sultan, was greeted with the greatest of happiness and gratitude. … When he was not allowed to send the monetary amount he had wished for, his decision to fulfill the rest of his gift with three ships loaded with a variety of grains provided great comfort and assistance to the Irish at the time."
We also met with the Irish Social Security Minister Joan Burton, who spoke proudly of the assistance from the Ottoman state. "The help from the Ottomans was very meaningful. Because after all, it was very significant that a country so far in the east of Europe would help out a country at the westernmost edge of Europe," she said. "The sultan was aware of what was happening, and so he decided to do everything he could to help the people of Ireland."

This Week's Movie
This week's movie is "Trailing the Killer" (1932)
Starring Caesar, as Lobo, a sort of shepherd/hunting dog (and another dog named Tony with the shepherd that appears to be a mix of border collie and wire haired fox terrier---how's THAT for an unlikely mix?)
from the IMDB page------------" While the original title, "Trailing the Killer" isn't a misnomer, it was a bit misleading since the "trailer" is a dog named Caesar Caesar the Dog) and the killer is a mountain lion, aka as a cougar or puma the narrator was quick to point out. But the makers also pointed out that Caesar "is the most intelligent dog actor since Rin-Tin-Tin" which probably lured a few Rin-Tin-Tin fans with a show-me attitude. Caesar prowls around the woods of the Northwest, dispatches a rattlesnake, visits his she-wolf mate and their pups, pauses to watch the dainty habits of a raccoon personally washing every morsel of food before eating it---and that raccoon had enough food to use up several minutes of running time---and then saves sheepherder Pierre (Francis McDonald)) from getting et up by one mean mountain lion. Rin-Tin-Tin he ain't, but then who was? Commonwealth changed the title to "Call of the Wilderness" when they acquired it for 16mm rental to the school market. - Written by Les Adams <email@example.com> "-------------
This movie probably rates about 9.8 on the "cuteness" scale. Although when this film was made, it was a far different time and place----what was considered "cute" in 1932 might not fly too well today.
The shepherd is such a bad shot(at 32:00 min.) I had to laugh. He should probably leave the rifle behind, and throw rocks instead.
Leave me a post and tell me what you think of this movie----I'd like to hear a little bit is discussion of what others think. Thanks.

Marc Morrone was born in 1960 in the Bronx and, when he was 2, his family moved to Show More
Q. My 5-year-old spayed female cat is just like Morris, the finicky spoiled star of the cat food commercials on TV years ago. She never eats as she should unless I add deli chicken to her food. I have tried every cat food that is out there, and she just takes a few licks and then walks away. If I mix in the deli chicken, then she will eat, but I have to mix it really well. Is there anything wrong with my doing this? My sister says to just leave her alone with the cat food and she will eat eventually, but I do not want to hurt her. I am a senior in a small apartment and this cat is my companion. I want to do what is best for her. --Michelle Clark, Holtsville
A. It seems that you are overthinking this situation. An adult cat living in a small apartment does not need to eat as much food as you may think. Most adult cats sleep 18 hours a day and spend the rest of the time just looking out the window. So the few mouthfuls of cat food she does eat are just what she needs to fuel her metabolism. However, it is clear she has learned that if she licks the food a few times and then walks away from it, you will make a fuss and add in the deli chicken. This is a routine she has come to enjoy.
In a perfect world, you would just harden your heart as your sister says and leave her unaltered food out, and she would eat it the next day. As they say, hunger is the best sauce. In my world, though, one of the pleasures in life is feeding animals and watching them eat. You obviously feel the same way. So I see nothing wrong with adding in a little meat, as long as the cat is not too heavy.
However, processed deli chicken is really not that good for a cat -- too much salt and preservatives. Use plain chicken or turkey breast instead. Cut it up and mix in the cat food as you are doing now -- just do not let it surpass more than a third of the total volume of the meal. The canned food has needed vitamins and minerals not found in the chicken or turkey breast.
Q. My children found a large praying mantis in one of the shrubs in front of our house the other day. They wanted to keep it, so we put it in a glass tank with a few potted house plants and tree branches. We give it water every day from an eyedropper, and it is eating crickets we buy from a pet store. How long can we expect it to live, and is there anything else we need to do for it? --Melvin Copeland, Roosevelt
A. Any mantis that you may find outside in mid October doesn't have too much time left to live, so bringing it indoors to observe is not harming the environment at all. They are quite amazing creatures. In nature, they die off at the first frost.
I have kept some of them alive up until the end of December, so it is possible you will have it for a few more weeks yet. The care you are providing is just fine. Be sure to feed it crickets that have been fed a vitamin and mineral powder, as these vitamins will also benefit the mantis.
Most likely it is a female. The females are larger than the males and are the ones we usually notice. She may yet lay an egg case on one of the branches in the vivarium.
If she does, just leave the case inside for a few days until it hardens, then take the branch outside and tie it onto a shrub in a protected area of your yard so the babies will hatch from it next spring.
If you leave it indoors, the babies will hatch in the middle of the winter, and they are so small and delicate that you will not be able to feed them properly and they will all starve to death.
