Along with most vets, we have for many years been recommending feeding raw chicken wings and necks to dogs to help prevent dental disease.
Effective chewing is key to maintaining good dental health. We have fed raw chicken wings to our own dogs for many years – without any ill effects. However, given a recent report from the University of Melbourne we are reviewing this recommendation.
The study found that the consumption of raw chicken meat increased the risk of developing the condition polyradiculoneuritis by more than 70 times.
Whilst, polyradiculoneuritis is a very uncommon condition in dogs, it is a potentially fatal condition with no guarantee of full recovery.
There are alternatives to raw chicken wings, necks and carcasses – raw beef brisket bones, lamb and veal shanks are still on the menu – however we always recommend matching the size of your dog and the size of your dog – they may not be suitable for your dog!
Brushing teeth on a daily basis is still regarded as the gold standard – as a preventative. Other options include specific dental diets ( Hills and Royal Canin), Healthy Mouth water additive, Oravet and Greenies.

Kia Stinger
Power to surprise.
The South Korean car might just give the luxury German brands a run for their money.
The South Korean car might just give the luxury German brands a run for their money.
The model's 360 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque strike an appealing balance between pragmatism and romance.
From luxury vehicles to exotic supercars, there was a bit of everything on display.
In this new configuration, drivers can arguably have the best of both worlds: exhilarating performance and day-to-day utility under any road conditions.
Saying this vehicle stands out in a crowd is a woeful understatement.
Operation is smooth, quick, and quiet, as one would expect from a Jaguar. What isn't quiet, however, is the engine, and that's a wonderful thing.
When one of the staunchest car brands in the business announced a return to racing in 2012, the following thought crossed more than a few minds: "Bentley used to build race cars?"
It may have the word mini in its name, but don't be mistaken—there is not a whole lot that is small about this car.
The chance to experience two days of ultra-high-speed training around the infamous Nürburgring Nordschleife in a BMW M6 coupe is a beautiful thing.

Squash Fries
Like oven baked potatoes, squash can achieve that addictively satisfying combo of a crispy edge with soft creamy interior. Delicata and acorn squash are both perfect choices for this snackable recipe. Choose one, or mix and match!
2-3 delicata or 2 acorn squash, or a blend of both
2 Tbsp olive oil, plus more to prepare baking sheet
1 Tbsp honey or maple syrup
3/4 tsp cinnamon (or your spice of choice - paprika or cumin also work here)
Optional pinch of cayenne or red pepper flakes
Preheat oven to 425F.
Cover a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper, and coat lightly with olive oil.
Prepare squash by halving them, scooping out their seeds, and slicing into ½ inch thick half moons.
Toss squash in a large bowl with 2 T olive oil, 1 T honey or maple syrup for a touch of sweetness, and ¾ teaspoon of your choice of spice (parika, cumin, or cinnamon all work. Add a pinch of cayenne for a kick!) Season with course salt.
Arrange squash in a single layer on the parchment paper lined baking sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes or until bottoms and edges are a golden brown, then flip squash. Cook for an additional 10 minutes or until edges are crisp and squash is easily pierced by a fork.
Recipe Notes
Baked squash is especially tasty with some finely chopped herbs like thyme, sage, or rosemary. These feel extra-special dipped in or drizzled with a yogurt sauce. Try combining greek yogurt with lime or lemon juice, a dash of olive oil, and salt.

Cover Love at Romance Lives Forever is a short intro to a book and includes a cover, blurb, buy links, and social media contacts for the author. Today's featured book is Unexpected.
Genre Science Fiction Romance
Author J. J. Lore
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
Publisher Evernight Publishing
As two Alphan warriors on the fast track to promotion and improved status, Mikel and Felix of the Tauride have their future planned out. They intend to go from performing security duties for the Prince while he visits Earth to eventually earning the right to seek out their human mate and rescue her in some dramatic way, impressing her and earning her love. But a chance encounter with a lovely young woman sends them both down a markedly different path.
Shy Alisa Sorrel merely wanted to see a rose garden, then retreat back to her safe and sequestered life in the Women's Refuge on Earth, but once she encounters two earnest and determined Alphan officers, she's forced out of her shell and into a whole new world of passion.
Even as the bonds they share tighten and satisfy needs they'd never imagined, Alisa, Felix, and Mikel are soon faced with danger and betrayal from the machinations of humans and Alphans alike. The Alphans will have the chance to rescue their fair damsel after all, but will they make it in time?

Why I love LIfestyle Photos
It's hard not to admit that posed newborn photos are really cute, but I LOVE capturing newborns just as they are! LIfestyle sessions allow you to relax and remember your little one as you see them every morning, noon, and night. Babies change so quickly - before you know it they're smiling, sitting up, crawling, and walking. Your newborn becomes a baby, a toddler, a child...
Lifestyle photos can take place at any age - during a Fresh 48 session, in the first two days after birth, during the first month of life as you're all settling in, or even when everyone has grown a bit. They are perfect for capturing your everyday routines...I love to see help you see the uniqueness in your life!
I think one of my new Moms said it best: "Lifestyle sessions really capture the natural beauty of everyday life with a baby. The posed images you get with a traditional newborn shoot can be stunning, but they don't necessarily conjure up memories of what it was like to care for your child, to interact with him or her, to see that sparkle in his eyes as he gazes back at Mommy and Daddy. Those first few weeks in a child's life go by so fast, and it's a treasure to be able to freeze that moment in time with a beautiful candid photograph."
See what other new Moms had to say here and contact me to book your session!

Happy new year!
I would like to wish you a healthy and happy 2018, it's set to be a big year - the year of the dog, a master number year and a year of ultraviolet, Pantone's colour of year. A powerful colour and the king of the palette with the highest vibrational frequency.
What does all that mean?
It means that this is the year for intuition, spirituality, and for embracing and valuing our environment. It is the year for us to open ourselves to nature, our inside voice and to listen to what we soulfully and intuitively have to say AND EXPRESS OURSELVES WITH MORE CLARITY.
When it comes to image and style this is exactly my focus for my clients.
By dressing how we think we should rather than how we desire we are hiding our uniqueness.
Personal branding will become one of the hot topics in business this year. But as you look around at a networking meeting, in the staff canteen, do you see personal style? For most, especially in British culture, we are historically driven and swayed towards blending in and wearing a self-imposed uniform in dark colours to ensure we're not noticed and taken seriously.
Many of my female clients believe that they need need to wear black or dark colours to be treated as an equal. I have yet to meet a man who says this is true and Michelle Obama proves how you can be successful & impactive yet have a vibrant and feminine image.
Expressing the real you in your style and image makes a powerful statement. It tells your co-workers, employees and future clients that you value your own voice, you are confident and are prepared to express this. Yes, you may stand out at meetings if you are wearing your favourite orange tie, red dress or green jacket but for all the right reasons, and you will be remembered.
Make 2018 the year of the true you - your voice, your personality and your uniqueness. This is the formula that creates true charisma.
For the month of January I will be wearing red every day and also running in support of MIND, the charity helping those with mental health. To make a donation - just 6 pounds will cover the cost of a call - CLICK HERE
And for business women who would like to step up into their suceess join me, expert transformational mentors Vanessa Louise Moore & Karen Marshall at our unique and intimate event - STEP INTO THE NEW YOU on February 23rd. Tickets and more information available here
Contact me to find out how you can start the new year embracing and expressing your true personal brand.

Retroweek: A look back on Greenwich news
Newsmaker of the Week: Jonathan Asch
Greenwich's at-times brash and controversial harbor master Jonathan Asch will not seek another term in the position.
Asch, 58, who was appointed to a three-year term by Gov. M. Jodi Rell in 2008 upon the recommendation of the town, is removing his name from the list of prospective applicants for the job.
Not that he would have gotten the nod to start, he said.
"They've got their own plans," Asch said of the town's administration. "I feel I did a good job, and it's time for the next person."
The town -- making no mention of Asch -- announced the formation of a search committee for harbor master Friday. The application deadline is May 9.
The harbor master is tasked with a myriad of responsibilities that include ensuring that the town's 28 miles of coastline are safe for navigation, tracking mooring permits, boat inspections and enforcing environmental regulations on the illegal discharge of waste into Long Island Sound.
The position comes with the use of a refurbished 22-foot Boston Whaler previously owned by the Shellfish Commission and a $600 annual stipend.
Dave & Buster's agrees
More InformationGreenwich Sept. 11 families say bin Laden death can't erase pain As Doug Mello ate lunch with his golf buddies Sunday, he wondered aloud if Osama bin Laden would ever be brought to justice. "I said, 'It's just incredible to me that for 9½ years we haven't been able to find this guy,' " Mello recalled Monday. Little did Mello know that just hours later, President Barack Obama would announce U.S. military forces had killed the al-Qaida chief in a weekend raid in Pakistan. Mello's 25-year-old son, Chris, a Princeton graduate and telecom analyst born in Greenwich, was a passenger on American Airlines Flight 11, the first hijacked jetliner to hit the World Trade Center on Sept. 11. Upon hearing that Navy SEALs killed the elusive mastermind of the attacks, Mello couldn't go back to sleep later that night. "I said, 'My God,' I couldn't get over it," said Mello, who splits his time between Rye, N.Y., and Vero Beach, Fla. "My pain will be there until the day I die about Chris. It will certainly help to know that the perpetrator was taken care of." Twelve Greenwich residents and 14 others with ties to the town died in the attacks, making Greenwich the community with the highest death toll in the state on Sept. 11, 2001. Most of the victims worked at the World Trade Center. Two were on the hijacked planes.
to $1.5 million settlement
A national restaurant chain has agreed to pay $1.5 million to the family of a 20-year-old Riverside man who was killed in a 2008 drunken-driving accident, according to court records.
The settlement came just as lawyers for Dave & Buster's and the family of Joseph Borselio were getting ready to pick a jury during the initial phases of a trial in state Superior Court.
Borselio, 20, was killed in September 2008 while riding his bicycle after Douglas Moore, 25, of Riverside, struck him during a late-night accident on Sheephill Road.
Moore was driving home from Dave & Buster's in West Nyack, N.Y., at the time of the accident. Lawyers for the Borselio family claimed the restaurant chain, which is based in Texas, overserved Moore. The restaurant denied those claims.
"It was resolved as part of a confidential settlement agreement," said Borselio family attorney Eric Smith, of the Stratton Faxon law firm. "As you would expect, this was yet another very stressful time for the family, so they were pleased to be able to put this matter behind them."
Greenwich PD busts 13
in prostitution stings
Thirteen people tied to a prostitution ring have been arrested following a month-long investigation by the Greenwich Police Department that ended with an undercover sting operation over the weekend, police said.
The investigation targeted escorts advertising their services online and men who solicited sex by contacting undercover officers after they posted fake advertisements.
"It is a widespread problem throughout this area that is not specific to Greenwich," said Capt. Mark Marino, who oversaw the crackdown. "These individuals will travel to other towns, and it seems to be a pretty significant problem because it didn't take any time to get people to show up, whether it was a prostitute or a john."
Police began to probe the illicit activities after narcotics officers received a tip from the Stamford Police Department's Narcotics and Organized Crime Squad regarding a prostitution organization operating in Greenwich.
On April 12, undercover officers arranged to meet with numerous women they communicated with online, at the Delamar Hotel. During the meeting, two men drove four females to the hotel to perform the arranged sexual acts, police said. All six were arrested on scene, police said. The women appeared to be catering to an "upscale" clientele as they charged rates as high as $400 an hour, police said.
The drivers were involved in the deal, but are not believed to be pimps, Marino said.
Pols make Greenwich
a money mecca
Three A-list Republicans are expected to visit Greenwich in the next six weeks, culminating with fundraising appearances by White House hopeful Mitt Romney and U.S. Sen. Scott Brown, R-Mass., in early June.
Romney and Brown are scheduled to visit here June 5 and 12, respectively, multiple people with knowledge of both events confirmed to Greenwich Time.
Reince Priebus, the Republican National Committee chairman with the tongue-twister of a name, kicks things off with a meet-and-greet Wednesday at the home of GOP loyalists Leora and Steven Levy.
"We are the ATM of American politics," said Frank Farricker, Democratic Town Committee chairman of Greenwich.
A person familiar with the invitation to the Priebus event said that attendees are strongly encouraged to become dues-paying members of the RNC.
A national party spokesman confirmed that the event is a private fundraiser.
State Rep. Livvy Floren, R-149th District, who is on the host committee of the Brown event, has no false illusions on why Greenwich is such a big draw.
"There's a real leadership think tank in this town and county, but the money doesn't hurt," Floren said.

Amazon MP3 Downloads
Most of the MP3 files I have were ripped from CDs that I own but now that I don't buy CDs anymore, I go out to the internet for songs. The music service I use is Amazon MP3 Downloads. Google Music and iTunes are also places that I have used. Amazon has a very good music selection and reasonable costs per song. Their price points are $1.29, 99¢, 89¢, and 69¢. Occasionally they will give away a $2 credit. So be on the alert for those as you can get two songs for free. News of what is happening in the Amazon MP3 Downloads store can be followed at Twitter and Facebook.

Top 10 CALI Legal Research Lessons, Fall Semester 2008As noted on the Law Librarian Blog, this ranking is from the "CALI Zeitgeist" statistical ranking of all lessons run since August 1st. (Thanks to Joe Hodnicki, who, as the post's author, I presume, extracted the legal research lessons from this master list.)
1 Introduction to Secondary Resources by Brian Huddleston.
2 Legal Research 101: The Tools of the Trade by Sheri Lewis.
3 How to Find Case Law Using the Digests by Brian Huddleston.
4 Anatomy of a Case by Brian Huddleston.

Instead of ringing my own bell by pointing out what two of the other top five entries on this list were, I'll admit I was lucky to be a participant fairly early in the CALI Legal Research Authoring Project, and so I got to write some of the main lessons. And editor extraordinaire Deb Quentel does a great job of shepherding all us CALI authors through the process, and the legal research editing committee is a thorough and very professional group of law librarians who help push the legal research authors to new heights of excellence.
I'd like to thank the Academy, and my wife, who is my ultimate inspiration and the love of my life, and our Lord Jesus Christ, and I'd like to dedicate this award to all our brave men and women in uniform, and I hope those serving overseas will soon return home safely. I'm King of the World! Let's party until dawn! You like me, you really, really like me!

Deceased January 19th, 2011
This sweetie is Rider - a 2 year old female who is spayed, has her first vaccination and is de-wormed. Rider was rescued by a feral feeder after hanging around at a feeding station for several days. She was so cold that she cried for hours while her little paws and ears un-thawed in her foster home. Rider is super cute and snuggly - still a bit shy at first but once you start petting her she loves it! She is so happy to be indoors after knowing the chilling bite of winter. Rider adores the back rubs her foster mom gives and has a soft little meow! She is curious but still a bit shy with the other cats in the foster home; Rider still prefers to be by herself but is adapting to the other cats in her foster home.
If you would like to adopt Rider and have her cuddle up on you and your couch as cute as pictured in her foster home, contact email@example.com
Adoption Fee: $60
Sadley, Rider was another sweet young kitty lost to FIV.
All adoption costs contribute to the veterinary fees and funds required for local animal rescue through People For Animals.

New Delhi: Adarsh Singh loves attention. Happily cornered by a mob of recorder-wielding press eager to document his story, country's best male pistol shooter painted a picture of eager enthusiasm that typifies his 17 years, albeit tempered with a nerveless calm that belied his age. Come 20 February, and Adarsh will be required to summon every ounce of that composure as the year's first shooting World Cup comes to the capital.
Last December, he toppled his India teammate and defending champion Anish Bhanwala at the Shooting Nationals in Kerala to clinch gold in the 25-metre rapid fire pistol category. The duo, along with Arpit Goel, will lead India's charge in the said event. The Delhi event will also mark Adarsh's international debut in the seniors section, but the youngster is unperturbed by the pressure.
"Of course, you feel some nervousness, but I am not bogged down by the thought of World Cup or this being my seniors' debut. My aim is to get an Olympic quota for India," he says.
A total of 16 Olympic quotas will be up for grabs at the event. Seasoned women's pair of Apurvi Chandela and Anjum Moudgil have already secured two quotas in the 10-metre air rifle category when they finished fourth and second at last year's World Championship in Changwon, South Korea.
Adarsh, like many of the current crop of junior-turned-senior shooters, has steadily risen through the ranks under the tutelage of Jaspal Rana, and the youngster credits the coach for his improved fitness.
"Jaspal sir has made me more disciplined, and that has surely improved my focus. Also, he puts emphasis on physical fitness, which has helped my shooting too," says the two-time Junior World Cup medallist.
Shooting, though, was not Adarsh's first calling. He first dabbled with cricket as a wicketkeeper, and went on to represent his school — Model School, Faridabad — at the district level. However, a persistent back niggle led to him quitting the sport. Adarsh, in fact, was born with a lump near his spine, and underwent surgery just six days after his birth.
His next stop, badminton, also put undue pressure on his back, and following the advice of his father Harinder Singh, Adarsh shifted his attention to shooting.
"I remember I was nearing the end of Class VIII when I first entered the shooting range at my school, and I instantly developed a liking for the sport. Initially, my scores were not that good, but over a period of time, I grew better," he adds.
Currently, Adarsh claims to shoot in excess of 590 in practice, and should he take that form to the World Cup, he will present a strong case to enter the final on his Cup debut. That, however, is not the only thought occupying his mind. There are board exams to deal with.
"I attended school for just four days in all of 2018," he says with a sheepish grin. The Class XII student has opted for Commerce, and the CBSE's board exams start on 2 March, a day after the World Cup ends.
"I am carrying my books here, like most of the other junior shooters. We shoot in the day and study at night," he chuckles, before talking about the bonding he shares with the younger lot.
"We have a lot of fun together, both in the range and outside. We generally stick around together, though seniors are very approachable too."
Adarsh looks up to the 2012 London Olympics silver medallist Vijay Kumar for inspiration, and Kumar's regular presence at Dr Karni Singh Shooting Range has helped the youngster hone his skills.
"The fact that I train alongside Vijay sir is a big plus. His constant feedback and inputs are of great help," says the southpaw who beat his hero in the World Cup selection trials.

The Black Death
Publication date: 1 January 2013
Visit publication homepage
From 1348 to 1350 Europe was devastated by an epidemic that left between a third and one half of the population dead. This source book traces, through contemporary writings, the calamitous impact of the Black Death in Europe, with a particular emphasis on its spread across England from 1348 to 1349.
Rosemary Horrox surveys contemporary attempts to explain the plague. The almost universal belief that it was an expression of divine anger at the sins of humankind did not preclude attempts to explain in scientific and medical terms; or to look for human scapegoats. The final third of the book charts the social and psychological impact of the plague, and its effects in the late-medieval economy. The sources illustrate the fear that spread with the disease and the diverse ways that such terror influenced social behaviour.

In our recent discipleship class at church, I learned about a man named Bill Wohl. Bill had a new heart. Days after receiving it, he opened a letter from Michael Brady's family. Michael Brady gave Bill his heart after Michael died doing what he loved. His heart was removed and transplanted into the heart of another man, this Bill Wohl.
According to the story, when Bill opened the letter from the Brady family, he couldn't believe what he read. But a little about Bill will help lay the reasons why. See, Bill was a type A, overweight, money-obsessed businessman pursuing a jet-setter lifestyle. That was Bill with his old heart.
Michael's family wrote Bill and included pictures of Michael and some background information. Michael was a 36-year old, good-looking, super-fit stuntman who died on the job. Bill thought, "Are you kidding me? That's whose heart I got?"
Today Bill works part time, spending most of his new-found energy winning speed and performance medals in swimming, cycling and track. This is Bill with his new heart.
As we begin a new week, let's remember that when we accepted Jesus, He gave us a new heart; His. Our response should mirror Bill's. "Are you kidding me? That's whose heart I got?"
- Jimmy Peña
For Discussion: New week, new heart. What will we do with it? We woke up today with fresh mercy and grace. Grace, of course, is God giving us what we don't deserve and mercy, of course, is not getting what we do deserve. That's why we strive. (Try finding a more compelling reason. I assure you, you can't.) What can we pray for today? What does your week have in store? Let's pray. I'll start. "Unspoken."

The Peterloo Massacre
Shelley's poem "The Mask of Anarchy" was constructed around the Peterloo Massacre where 15 people were killed and 400-700 seriously injured. The government of Britain was primarily in favor of the event, demonstrating the political turbulence of the period. The event occurred when Henry Hunt was meant to speak on the topics of suffrage, liberty, and political rights; however, local magistrates meant to arrest him at his speech and in doing so they trampled a child and knocked over the mother. The crowd rose up at the event in protest, and at this reaction mounted hussars charged the people.
The Four Horsemen
Shelley constructs the poem around the ideology of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, changing a few names here and there: Murder, Fraud, Hypocrisy, and Anarchy (in comparison to the original Death, Famine, War, and Conquest). However, Shelley's horsemen are more politically aligned and speak to the opinion of the British government of the 19th century. If we take a look at the descriptors of the horsemen, we can understand their context a bit better.
Murder had a "mask like Castlereagh," referring to Viscount Castlereagh Robert Stewart whom was responsible for the imprisonment of the leader of the United Irish rebellion (2.2). He is further described as "very smooth […] yet grim" with "seven bloodhounds [that] followed him" (2.3-4). The seven bloodhounds are symbolic of the seven nations that joined in alliance with Britain: Austria, France, Russia, Prussia, Portugal, Spain, and Sweden; they are further defined by the "human hearts" thrown to them "from [Murder's] wide cloak," connoting the damage done to the people of Britain in an emotional context (3.4-5).
Fraud is compared to John Scott, Baron Eldon, Lord Chancellor whom deprived Shelley of having contact with his children. In an "ermined gown" Fraud is described as weeping "big tears" that "turned to millstones as they fell" (4.3-4). Below Fraud are little children, "round his feet played to and fro," who saw his tears as gems but were wronged when they "had their brains knocked out by them" (5.1-2,4).
Hypocrisy is compared to Henry Addington, Viscount Sidmouth, former Prime Minister and Chancellor of the Exchequer. He was in favor of the Peterloo Massacre and described as applauding the event. Hypocrisy is thus "clothed with the Bible, as with light, / And the shadows of the night" to convey the duality of hypocritical thought (6.1-2). He is described as "on a crocodile," alluding to "crocodile tears" that serve to represent hypocrisy after the belief that crocodiles weep when they devour their food (6.4).
Anarchy is the last of Shelley's horsemen, and is representative throughout the remainder of the poem. He is the one that is stopped by the figure that appears to the people to speak on the dangers of revenge and violence. Anarchy "rode / On a white horse, splashed with blood; / He was pale even to the lips, / Like Death in the Apocalypse" (8.1-4). Here is is related specifically to one of the original Biblical Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse: Death. Anarchy is further described as wearing "a kingly crown, / And in his grasp a sceptre shone" and upon his brow read "'I am God, and King, and Law'" (9.1-4). His appearance is royal, and clearly is a slight at the British Royal; Shelley's interpretation of Anarchy depicts how British rule has consequently run over political rights of the people. He is also not compared to any one person, as the other three are, but rather is meant to represent the British government in its whole.
Rise Like Lions After Slumber
Rise like lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number;
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you -
Ye are many, they are few.
The above stanza appears multiple times throughout the poem and seems to anchor the Shelley's purpose. His message is not to incite a violent revenge but to remind the people that their power comes in their numbers, in unison. He is speaking out against the political oppression, chanting it through his poem with the above stanza. Shelley is deliberately creating a symbolic "Mother" figure, the Mother of "the sons of England," to warn her children against the violence of revenge: "Then it is to feel revenge / Fiercely thirsting to exchange / Blood for blood and wrong for wrong - / Do not thus when ye are strong" (193-6).
For the second half of the poem, Mother is speaking to the "sons of England" for the purpose illustrated above. Her words connote justice and peace, not revenge and bloodshed:
With folded arms and steady eyes,
And little fear, and less surprise,
Look upon them as they slay,
Till their rage has died away.
Then they will return with shame
To the place from which they came,
And the blood thus shed will speak
In hot blushed on their cheek. (343-351)
She speaks to the strength of words and putting one's foot down, but not to connote violence and war. Rather, the ones that speak to bloodshed, once their "rage has died away" will be left ashamed, and the blood will show as "hot blushed on their cheek." Shelley exemplifies this by producing the poem, demonstrating the very words and message he is connoting.

(A version of this piece originally ran Thursday night on Herb Greenberg's Reality Check.)
SAN DIEGO (TheStreet) -- With Relational Investors taking a 9.08% stake in Clean Harbors (CLH - Get Report), it would be absurd to keep it on the Watch List, where it has been red-flagged. (Activism and takeovers are always one way to make the red flags irrelevant.)
Clean Harbors would appear to be the perfect activist stock. One mistake after another, or, as I wrote in my original piece when I red-flagged Clean Harbors last November, it's a comedy of errors.
The company itself recognizes the problems. From its last earnings call, CEO Alan McKim:
...We're launching a broad strategic review of our operating structure, with a focus on how to better drive organic growth and improve our return on invested capital. We also have initiated a cost reduction program and are taking $75 million in additional costs out of the business and bringing our cost structure more in line with our current revenue profile. We are targeting areas ranging from our non-billable headcount, office consolidation, maintenance and logistics, with the goal of significantly reducing our overall expenses.
In its filing, Relation said:
During its fourth quarter earnings call on February 26, 2014, the Company announced a broad strategic review of its operating structure with a focus on driving organic growth and improving its return on invested capital. The Reporting Persons support such actions which may include divestitures or a tax free spin-off of assets that do not earn their cost of capital, do not directly feed waste streams to the Company's high return disposal assets or lie outside of the Company's core competency in waste disposal.
In other words, a dismantling of the deals McKim has put together.
The filing added:
The Reporting Persons believe the Company will have substantially completed the investments necessary for its strategic positioning by 2015. Therefore, a larger portion of excess cash flows in future periods will be available for distribution to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. highest and best return alternatives. Based on the Company's current valuation, the Reporting Persons believe share repurchases represent a low-risk, high-return hurdle against which all alternative uses of capital, particularly acquisitions, must be benchmarked.
Reality: Clean Harbors has been begging for somebody to come in and attempt to make sure something happens. In retrospect, its initiation of a strategic review was like putting the request up in neon lights.
But the stock already trades at a lofty multiple relative to what many believe it's worth as a hybrid between a refiner and a hazardous waste company.
It's unclear exactly what Clean Harbors will sell, but lodging and re-refining would be a start.
The bigger question is whether the core hazardous waste business could then be sold to a corporate or private-equity buyer, assuming they would be willing to assume the liabilities that come with hazardous waste cleanup. (Unlikely.) Or (more likely, as the filing suggests) the remaining company would create some kind of low-to-no growth income-generating pure hazardous cleanup play -- in other words, a version of what Clean Harbors used to be.
This much is clear. This has been McKim's baby. As well-liked as he is (and he is well liked) his board is perceived to be weak and it could be argued it's time for somebody else to call, or at least get behind, the shots.

Lighting Maintenance San Francisco Bay Area
Re: Lighting Maintenance San Francisco Bay Area. Horizon Lighting is now open for business for Lighting Maintenance San Francisco Bay Area! We are excited to announce that we are expanding our ever growing service territory to include the San Francisco Bay Area beginning June 1st, 2015. Due to our loyal customer following, we have experienced tremendous growth in Southern California. As many of our So Cal customers have locations in the San Francisco Bay Area as well, the demand for our services has grown to this new service area. We are happy to oblige.
Who we are: Horizon Lighting is family owned and operated with two generations of lighting and electrical experience. Since it's inception in 1993, Horizon Lighting has maintained electrical and lighting systems for Homeowners' Associations (HOAs), commercial properties, and retail shopping centers.
What we do:
Please let us know how we can help you. Find out more about our pro-active services like Infrared Panel Inspections and Ultra Sonic Pole Testing. These are amazing technologies that can reduce liability on your properties. Are you thinking about making the switch to LED? Prices continue to decrease while options increase. LED lighting is available for just about every application. With return on investment as quick as 1.5 years, it makes sense to take a look at how LED lighting can save your commercial properties and community's energy and money.
If you'd like to learn about all of our services, we are available for Lunch and Learns, Breakfasts and Meet & Greets. Let us bring in a delicious meal and provide an informative presentation at your office. Please also feel free to call and speak with a representative. We are at your service.
Re: Lighting Maintenance Palm Desert. Our facility has been open for business over one year now for lighting maintenance Palm Desert! Time flies. Although, we are not new to the desert having serviced the area since our inception in 1993; we thought it was time to open a local desert facility. We not only offer lighting maintenance Palm Desert, but also LED energy efficient lighting options, LED pool lighting, electrical/lighting repair and service, lighting consulting and design for new construction, lighting upgrades, ultra sonic pole inspections, infrared panel testing and so much more!
Let us know if you'd like information about our preventative maintenance and testing programs. Be pro-active while reducing liability.
With state of the art equipment we can perform an Ultra Sonic Pole Inspection that provides you with a report informing you of the condition of your light poles with regards to rust and deterioration. A light pole that may appear in good condition from the outside could be rusting from the inside out and in danger of falling over. Our report will rate each pole so that you may determine the urgency of repairs/replacement. This information is useful for budgeting purposes, as well.
How about an amazing camera with heat-seeking capabilities, so to speak? Our infrared panel testing can find hot spots inside electrical panels unseen to the naked eye, thus reducing risk of fire or equipment failure. Every 12 months at a minimum, an infrared panel test should be scheduled to pinpoint potential problems in primary and secondary electrical systems before failure occurs.
We have so many exciting things going on at Horizon Lighting. We'd be more than happy to do a meet and greet or lunch at your office to answer any questions and give you more information about all that we offer.
Give us a call today! You'll be glad that you did.
Re: Lighting Maintenance Orange County. Who should you call for your lighting maintenance Orange County? Horizon Lighting, of course! Because of the loyalty of our amazing customers, we have outgrown our Orange County facility and have moved into a much larger location in Irvine, California. This will allow us to even better serve your needs for lighting maintenance Orange County, as well as lighting upgrades, LED lighting, ultra sonic pole testing, infrared panel inspections, lighting design and installation on new construction, electrical lighting repair and service, commercial lighting, HOA lighting and so much more!
As mentioned, we now offer preventative maintenance services such as Ultra Sonic Pole Testing and Infrared Panel Inspection. Ultra Sonic Pole Testing uses special equipment to determine the poles integrity from the inside out. A pole that might appear in good condition on the outside could be deteriorating from the inside out and in danger of falling over. We will provide you with a full report after inspection rating each pole so that you may determine which are in need of immediate replacement, which can wait, and those that are still in good condition.
Another new technology we are utilizing to help with preventative maintenance and reducing your risk of liability is Infrared Panel Inspections. Infrared Panel Inspections are an ideal method for inspecting electrical service equipment for defective components, poor connections, and overloaded circuits. The most effective way to maintain an electrical system is to detect any potential electrical failures and take corrective action that will prevent any interruption of normal system operation. An Infrared Panel Inspection is the perfect tool for your electrical predictive maintenance program.
So, give us a call for your lighting maintenance Orange County and for all of your other lighting and electrical needs. You'll be glad you did.
Our new Orange County office in located at:

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS.MW) -- What do the terms "alone together," "a definite maybe," "Microsoft Works," "diet ice cream" and "an Internet value play" have in common? They all sound like oxymorons to me.
Net Sense archive Wireless Web II Inktomi's Web Survival of fittest B2B Big bang, Loudcloud Infrastructure, baby Virtual Bricks VC confessions Wireless Web I .Bombs to .Bargains Faith in Exodus Safeguard safe Dangerous Beliefs E-Mail marketers Net Gorillas EBay and Yahoo Goto.com The Art of the Pitch EBay's Billpoint Buy.com Amazon.com Behind the '.com'
But here's something even more incongruous. Manhattan-based Pegasus Research, the Internet research outfit whose study was the basis for Barron's scathing "cash-burn rate" article that crushed dot-com egos and drained portfolios, says there are "value plays in dot-com land."
In its latest study, hot off the presses, Pegasus Research found 15 Internet stocks that trade below their cash value. Within that group, there are at least two candidates that have conservative cash-burn rates, minimal liability and multiples that suggest they're worth investing in for the long term or acquiring. The two most favorable mentions are EGreetings.com egrt and Fashionmall fash.
Are they kidding? Would you really advise your mother to even look at these stocks?
"Well, no," said Greg Kyle, the president of Pegasus Research, who also believes that "value investing for dot-coms is like fire and water, oil and vinegar." Right.
To be fair, if online users spend 43 percent of their time on the Internet engaged in communication-related activities, like e-mail, as the Boston Consulting Group estimates they do, then EGreetings has value.
Sending greeting cards is popular. During Father's Day week, use of ExciteAtHome's " Blue Mountain jumped 43 percent to 4 million unique visitors, according to Nielsen Net/Ratings. American Greetings AM, -2.93% saw a 27-percent jump in traffic to 2.8 million unique visitors. And EGreetings wasn't far behind in traffic. The site had 868,000 unique visitors, up 31 percent. That even beat out Hallmark's site, which had 572,000 unique visitors.
It didn't take a Father's Day card from EGreetings for Pegasus' Kyle to take a hard look, though.
"There is hidden value, and it's not just based on the fact that they're trading at a discount to their cash value," said Kyle. A stock that trades at less than its cash value is the number one criteria to make Kyle's first cut. But there are other factors as well. The second factor to determine a so-called value play is a company's cash-burn rate, based on the quarter ending March 31. The third factor is a company's price-to-trailing-sales multiple. All of these metrics are then evaluated against a company's market cap.
EGreetings at 1 1/2 is a $52.5 million company. It had $61 million in cash at the end of the quarter ending March 31. This means that EGreetings is trading at below its cash value. The company had ten times more total assets then liabilities, Kyle noted. "This shows that EGreetings' cash won't be going towards paying any creditors," he said.
Moreover, it burned through a modest $9.2 million in the first three months of this year. Kyle looked at operating losses minus non-cash charges and non-recurring charges to determine the cash-burn rate. With that burn-rate in mind, which is likely an overestimation given that many companies are paring down their spending, EGreetings can last for some time.
But EGreetings is trading at 13 times trailing 12 months revenue. It's pretty expensive when compared to the 53 e-content companies Kyle follows. They trade at 9.8 times trailing sales, he said.
What is compelling, however, is that EGreetings could be an interesting play for a content company, much like Blue Mountain was for ExciteAtHome, said Kyle. Or a company like InfoSpace INSP, -1.81% could layer in the EGreetings service as part of its suite of services, Kyle said.
With a market valuation of $15 million, $40 million of cash on its balance sheet, and a conservative cash-burn rate of $3.1 million in the first quarter, Fashionmall appears to have some value, said Kyle. Shares of Fashionmall traded at 2 1/16 when Kyle calculated his numbers.
Additionally, "Fashionmall is not highly leveraged so that $40 million will go to an acquirer." Kyle brings up MotherNature.com to argue that Fashionmall has some positive attributes. "MotherNature's burn rate suggest that it will last only half a year, while Fashionmall can last nearly 13 quarters."
OK, so Fashionmall has enough cash to fund operations. And maybe one day within those 13 quarters, it will be profitable. And then it will likely trade with a sluggish retail multiple of one to two times revenue. That, to me, is the good news scenario.
But what's the value proposition? Fashionmall is an e-tailer. What could Fashionmall possibly do to make my shopping experience so intriguing and compelling that I would shop there? Have you shopped there recently Kyle? "No." Exactly, I say.
Below you can check out Kyle's list. But stay tuned for Kyle's next study which will list 60 companies that are trading at less than their cash value but are cashflow positive.

The role of risk mitigation in production efficiency: A case study of potato cultivation in the Bolivian Andes
Larochelle, Catherine
Alwang, Jeffrey
MetadataShow full item record
We quantify the costs of two different kinds of field level diversification in terms of efficiency losses and yield forgone. Efficiency falls as the number of fields planted grows and for greater distances from the dwelling and a particular field. Spatial separation of multiple fields is also associated with inefficiency, and off-farm income generation further creates inefficiency. The paper quantifies the costs of diversification in the Andean region of Bolivia.


text: Why You Should Finish Gun Dogs Together John McGonigle - March 03, 2017 Working as a team, training gun dogs is the most efficient way for amateurs to ensure success. My good fortune allowed me to train for years at the grounds of the late Ed Whitaker, now enshrined in the Bird Dog Hall of Fame for his numerous contributions to English springer spaniels. Whitaker's only requirements for training at his grounds were to behave like a gentleman or lady, and to care about and work toward consistently improving one's dog.Whitaker and his close friend, the late Ed Berger, were my mentors, though many other knowledgeable trainers assisted. Trust me when I say they had their hands full. A typical training session started by gathering pigeons and pheasants from their pens at about 10:30 a.m. and continued until about 4 p.m. Refreshments and endless discussions on birds, dogs and shotguns followed. If anyone had young puppies we started with puppy quartering drills on a low-cut part of the extended yard. The format we followed provides a good guideline for anyone training in a group situation, so I'll outline it here.The pup's owner/handler and two others should have a dead pigeon or two in their training vests and line up parallel to each other, facing downfield, about 12 to 15 yards apart, with the owner/handler in the middle. As the owner casts his pup toward one side, the helper on that side says "Hey pup!" and waves/shakes a dead pigeon so the pup sees it. Pup races toward the pigeon and just before reaching it the helper hides the pigeon behind his back, just as the owner blows the whistle with two short, sharp blasts. Pup will turn toward the whistle to see what the commotion is about and see the helper on the far side of the owner waving and shaking another pigeon so pup can see it. An interested pup will race across the field toward the second dead pigeon, passing in front of his owner. Again the bird is hidden just before pup reaches the helper and the owner toots the whistle twice. Pup again turns to look for the whistle and sees the helper on the opposite side waving a dead pigeon.On this, the third crossing of the field, the first helper waits until pup nears him then gives the dead bird a short toss, being sure pup is looking at him and will see the tossed bird. If pup's preliminary retrieving drills have worked, pup will race and pick up the pigeon and retrieve it to his owner.The owner/handler should stoop down to pup's level, and before taking the pigeon, pet and praise pup enthusiastically while holding one hand under pup's mouth so the bird doesn't drop prematurely. After praising pup, the owner takes the bird and continues to praise him, then puts the bird out of sight in his vest.If you're using this program, allow two or three retrieves but no more until later. Give pup some water and put him in his crate.Heart-to-heart After training our young dogs we do basically the same thing with the older dogs, except with live birds, not letting them see the live bird dizzied or tossed into cover. Pup is going to find and flush this live, healthy bird.Pup should quarter three to four times before having a bird planted. Make sure pup turns quickly on the whistle and that he stays within 10 yards when he passes you during quartering.If during the drill pup turns and begins to cross too far downfield, whistle pup towards you with repeated short toots and your hand reaching out towards him. He should pull in toward you; don't let him pass by.Occasionally you might have to produce a treat for pup to bring him in to you, then cast him toward the side he was headed for. It should not take many treats to keep him close. DON'T OVERDO TREATS!Have a helper toss a dizzied bird into short cover and allow pup to scent the bird and flush it, being sure he is steady before the bird is shot by one of your helpers. Caution helpers not to shoot if your dog breaks on the flush.If pup breaks, you must run him down, bring him back to the spot he broke from and return to your starting point while he waits. Certainly you had a little "heart-to-heart" talk with pup, perhaps while giving him a firm, controlled shake.We hope the next attempt at the same drill works and you get two good retrieves from the drill. Water pup and crate him after praising him for his successful retrieves. If pup breaks on the second retrieve, crate him and try him again later.We will go through everyone's dog the same way, correcting as necessary, and remembering to praise as earned. Remember, a well-bred dog wants to please his master — that is one of your best training aids.Each dog should get three retrieves, and we hope the guns successfully drop the birds so a retrieve can be made.It is not life or death if a bird is missed occasionally, because pup must learn we do not get every flushed bird. An occasional miss, in fact, helps instill steadiness to wing and shot.Blind Retrieve An extra drill to help pup (while not taking up much time) is introducing pup to "go back" to retrieve a bird he did not see fall. Perhaps he was in heavy cover or on the opposite side of a hedgerow and did not see a bird go down. This is how to start him making that retrieve, or "hunt dead."After pup's two or three retrieves, the helpers, you and pup turn 180 degrees and re-trace your course up-field toward the starting spot. You drop a dead bird on the ground as you start walking back to your starting point.Pup will almost assuredly see you drop the bird, which is fine, but you should not let him grab or retrieve it. Rather, keep walking and keep pup heeling at your side, even if he must be leashed. You actually want pup to know the bird was dropped early in this learning stage.When you and pup walk back about one-third of the field, your helpers walk away while you turn around and face downfield again, with pup doing the same. With pup at your side, put your hand in front of pup's face and direct him downfield where the bird was dropped.If you use the same training area you will have a nice, beaten path and pup will follow it — again, good for now. Give the command "Back!" and pup will race downfield and retrieve the dead bird. Bend down as he returns and pet him before taking the bird, but do not let him drop it. Praise is an important key when training.Do this drill regularly from now on and increase the length of the retrieve as pup continues to retrieve boldly with speed and enthusiasm. Eventually pup will be going the length of the field. When finished, water pup and put him up. Repeat this mini-drill each time down the field.After completing these sessions, some of us would take the dogs to the pond if it was warm enough. By late spring we never missed a quick water workout.Water work is another perfect way to solidify steadiness. Have two to five dogs sit (hup) about eight yards from the pond while owners stand between them and the water. One person tosses a dummy into the pond and while each dog is dying to retrieve it, only one is allowed to make the retrieve.Wait several seconds then have one owner call his dog's name to break for the water while the others wait their turn. If another dog breaks, his owner or a friend should be able to stop him and put him on his butt and make him wait as he should. Give each dog at least one chance to retrieve and then let another few dogs take their turn.Finish with anything your dog might need special work on, but do not take too long or you will be late for cheese and crackers, and that all important cold beverage.

The St. Thomas Aquinas College Baseball Team took time on Monday to honor the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday and his legacy by taking part in a day of service. The Spartans teamed up with Hope Worldwide to collect, pack and deliver various food, clothing and toiletry items for the homeless in the metropolitan area. The Romano Student Center served as the perfect venue for today's events, as approximately 100 volunteers spent 4 hours plus putting together supplies for those who are most in need.
Hope Worldwide is an international charity, based out of Pennsylvania, that changes lives by harnessing the compassion and commitment of dedicated staff and volunteers to deliver sustainable, high-impact, community-based services to the poor and needy. Their vision is to bring hope and change to the lives of the world's most poor, sick and suffering.
A documentary on the life and work of Dr. King was shown to all of the volunteers and guest speakers reminded the group of how important community service is to keeping the legacy and dream of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. alive, even 47 years following his passing.

What is communication?
Communication is transmission of information.
As simple as that. Someone has some information that he sends out there. Where to? Wherever. Bacterias communicate, fungi communicate, plants do that also. Every living organism communicates.
LittleMissLisa thinks that "Cogito Ergo Sum" is not enough. I communicate, therefore I am – that is what she believes in.
Now, the ever present alien in our stories, being an alien, and not quite getting this communication thing yet, wondered:
"If some information is transmitted from you to me does that mean that we communicate?"
"Well, yes, it does, it satisfies the definition we adopted at start."
"Great, I get it!", alien put a smile on his fluffy alien face, "We are here, you and me. We are a kind of group. Right?
"Yes, you could say so."
"You told me more than once that communication is essential for the functioning of the group."
"Yes, I did. That is what I believe."
"What you meant is that if all the members transmit what they think to other members, they communicate and all will be good and great?!"
"Hm, not exactly. The communication is not a one time thing. There is also a time dimension to it. But, what is the most important is the feedback that leads to the flow of information. For successfull communication within a group you need the feedback and you need the flow."
Little fluffy cheeks hang down. "Oh, now, but what is this feedback thing?"
"If I give you a candy, what would you do? Here you go, here is a candy!"
"Thank you!"
"Ha, you see!", LittleMissLisa clapped her hands.
"I did not do anything?!"
"Yes, you took the candy, you thanked me, and your eyes smiled! That is the feedback!"
"Hmm, but I did not give you any information!?"
"On the contrary, my dear Watson! You accepted the candy and you showed me that you like it with both your non-verbal and verbal communication! That is a lot of information you gave me back as a feedback! And a positive one! "
"Aha, I liked getting the candy and showed it. Non verbal communication told you that I really did like it, while my verbal communication just showed that I was well brought up, according to Earth standards."
"Right. Now that is what I call a start of communication. For a better quality communication you would have to give me more than a positive acknowledgment. You could have told me about the kind of candy you prefer, or that you maybe do not feel like candy right now, since you ate recently… for the richness of communication you need more quality of information in return. Then the wider flow can develop and new possibilities open."
"Hm. Right. Now I understand what feedback means. Information can be passed in different forms, and when you give it in return, that is a feedback. But… one more thing – why did you call me Watson!?"
"Oh… Here you go, here is another candy!"
"Thank you! I love you, LittleMissLisa, you are my best friend! Not because of all the candy, you know"
"I know. You are my best friend, too. And now we have the flow".

Actress Kristen Stewart told Nylon she doesn't think it's necessary for people to define their sexuality.
In a new interview with the magazine, the American Ultra star vaguely addressed earlier reports she has been dating her female assistant, Alicia Cargile, by stating she is simply embracing the "ambiguity of this life."
She said:
If you feel like you really want to define yourself, and you have the ability to articulate those parameters and that in itself defines you, then do it…
…But I am an actress, man. I live the f*cking ambiguity of this life and I love it. I don't feel like it would be true for me to be like, 'I'm coming out!' No, I do a job…
…Until I decide that I'm starting a foundation or that I have some perspective or opinion that other people should be receiving… I don't. I'm just a kid making movies.
Additionally, Stewart predicts many will share her view points on sexuality in the coming years.
"I think in three or four years, there are going to be a whole lot more people who don't think it's necessary to figure out if you're gay or straight," she continued. "It's like, just do your thing."
The Twilight alum also addressed how the media perceives her personality, which is often described as awkward, bland, or cold, and at times feels like she's a character in a weekly comic book.
Moreover, Stewart says she has an "assigned personality" that she admittedly helped create.
"People stand to make a lot of money on people like me – it's this booming industry, so why would you go and change the character that people are paying for?" she asked.
Stewart's latest action-comedy film American Ultra hits theaters on August 21.
