The veterinary profession has a special responsibility to animals during the final stages of their life.
For many people, their first thought when it comes to an animal's end of life is the care offered to a beloved companion animal after a serious injury of diagnosis of a terminal condition. Veterinarians have many options for palliative care and euthanasia of companion animals to help the owner make compassionate choices and offer animals the best quality of life possible and, where appropriate, a peaceful death.
The veterinary obligation also extends to the humane treatment of all animals killed for a range of purposes, including the depopulation of animals during an emergency and the slaughter of animals raised for food.
The role of the veterinary profession can be seen as falling into four main areas: Human Perspectives, Animal End of Life, Humane Killing Techniques, and the Disposition of Remains.
All of the AVMA guidance relating to Humane Endings aims to help those with a responsibility to animals to make informed and compassionate choices.
To promote clear communications between veterinarians and clients with companion animals, the AVMA provides brochures relating to euthanasia, pet loss and grief, and a AVMA Model Euthanasia Authorization.
The AVMA Panel on Euthanasia was first convened in 1963 to create guidelines for veterinarians who carry out or oversee the euthanasia of animals. As the guidelines have become increasingly influential, and in some cases recognized as a legal standard, the specificity and scope of the guidelines have broadened.
Now in its 8th edition, the AVMA Guidelines for the Euthanasia of Animals: 2013 Edition covers a multitude of species and methods, and includes information about animals' physiologic and behavioral responses to euthanasia, euthanasia's effects on those performing and observing it, and the feasibility and impacts of various euthanasia approaches. More information about the guidelines is available here.
While preparing the 2013 edition of the AVMA Guidelines for the Euthanasia of Animals, the Panel on Euthanasia determined that euthanasia, slaughter, and depopulation are distinct activities conducted in different environments with correspondingly different considerations for how animals are appropriately handled. As such, humane slaughter and depopulation will now be addressed in separate guidance documents. A draft of the AVMA Guidelines for the Humane Slaughter of Animals was approved by the Executive Board in January 2014 and released in July of 2016.
The remaining topic in our series to be addressed via AVMA guidelines is depopulation (i.e., the rapid killing of large numbers of animals that is required by some emergencies, such as the control of catastrophic infectious diseases or exigent situations caused by natural disasters). Depopulation may employ euthanasia techniques, but not all depopulation methods meet the AVMA criteria for euthanasia. Because meeting euthanasia criteria may not be possible under emergency situations - particularly when large numbers of animals or non-typical risks to human health and safety are part of the picture - the Panel on Euthanasia believed separate guidance is needed. Activities are currently underway to convene this Panel and its Working Groups.
The duties of the veterinarian extend to handling animal remains in a safe manner appropriate for the animal and the situation. Veterinarians should be aware of or able to find pertinent regulations pertaining to the disposition of animal remains, and the AVMA has a members-only resource to help them with this.
One aspect of this responsibility is to protect other people, animals, and the environment from any drugs used during euthanasia or inappropriate disposition of animal remains. (See policies: Controlled Substances Used for Euthanasia, Animal Carcass Risk in Natural Disasters and Appropriate Carcass Disposal).
On November 3-5, 2014, the AVMA hosted a symposium, "Humane Endings - In Search of Best Practices for Euthanasia, Humane Slaughter and the Depopulation of Animals," at the Westin O'Hare (Rosemont, Illinois). Proceedings for that event, which include audiovisual footage, are available on the Symposium webpage.

Baghdad, Iraq A string of attacks targeting Iraqi Shiites on the eve of one of their holiest days killed at least 32 people Friday, a day after a coalition representing the Shiite majority was confirmed as the winner of Iraq's landmark election.
Stepping up their campaign to sow sectarian discord in the wake of the poll, insurgents struck three mosques, a religious procession and a base for Iraq's National Guard on one of the worst days of bloodshed in and around Baghdad since the election nearly three weeks ago.
The attacks seemed designed to spread fear among Iraq's Shiites as they prepare to commemorate the holy day of Ashoura today, stirring memories of the bloody attacks during last year's celebrations in which more than 180 people died.
In the first of Friday's attacks, a suicide bomber wearing an explosive belt mingled among worshippers and then blew himself up during prayers at the Khadimain mosque in the southwestern Baghdad suburb of Dora, killing 15 and wounding dozens, according to hospital officials.
Violence had been anticipated during the Shiite festival, and police and National Guard soldiers were out in force on the streets of Baghdad, guarding religious sites and manning checkpoints.
The city's Shiites were also out in force, thronging mosques and marching in the streets, flailing their backs and foreheads in a ritual expression of remorse for the failure of Shiites to go to the aid of their slain leader, Imam Hussein, at the battle of Karbala in 680.
Tight security measures are also in force in the holy city of Karbala, which typically draws thousands of pilgrims to the site of the battle.
Hussein's slaying lost him the chance to assume the caliphate of the Muslim world and precipitated the schism between the Shiite and Sunni branches of Islam.
The differences that have since divided the two communities have grown in the 22 months since the Sunni-dominated regime of Saddam Hussein was toppled, and the Shiite victory in the recent election seems likely to further deepen the sectarian divide.

Sweet Mommy & Baby Moments
Proud daddy
oh, sweet little Peyton you melts my heart…
shhhh, I like shooting when they aren't paying attention 😉
It was an amazing session and I was lucky to be a part of it!
Sweet baby Cole is one of my baby planners and he was so amazing to work with. I instantly fell in love him, his big brother and his sweet parents, Seriously I just loved them all <3
I'm excited to announce that Cole and his family totally rock this session, We scored a Lifestyle and a newborn shoot in only 3 hr…( I know what you're thinking..holy cow 3 hrs?!) But really with a newborn 3 hours is NOTHING, it was beyond QUICK & did I mentioned AWESOME!
Family time <3
Really I could have posted another 10-15-20 images from his session, it was that AH-MAH-ZING!!!
I met this cutie at the beach, He & his gorgeous family recently moved from out of state and wanted a beach session. Unfortunately we had to reschedule his 1st session due to rain, but as you can see it all worked out just fine. He LOVED the beach, but unfortunately at 1st he wasn't too thrilled that I was their, nor was he too impressed by my huge lens, so we played a few peek a boos games, splash around a bit and then he was all smiles for the rest of the session.
Enjoy <3
I've been in complete AWEEE with this little sweetie since she was just a wee wittle newborn. She's also one of my 1st babies to go on one of my baby plans and has been an AMAZING baby to photograph. She's always so sweet, and such a pleasure to work with. It's been such a FUN year Lala, and I can't wait until our next session!
Lizzie <3
After speaking with Harrison's Momma, we decided on a "LIFESTYLE " shoot. Honestly, nothing beats capturing those sweet moments at home with your tiny newborn, Our little ones grow so quickly, that we sometimes forget all those crazy 1st few weeks. You know what I am talking about, all of those countless feeding, diaper changes, the endless sleepless days & nights. The days just bleed into one another and the next thing you know, your tiny newborn is no longer tiny nor a newborn. So take a DEEP breath and take it all in, enjoy these hectic days, soon enough we all forget.
So with all that said.. I'll leave you with a few sweet moments I was able to capture of little Harrison and his loving parents!
Liz <3
What is Lifestyle you ask?…

Steve Sullivan was named NHL's 2009 winner of the Masterton Trophy at the NHL Awards Banquet on Thursday.
The 34-year-old forward became the first Nashville Predators' player to win one of the league's top individual awards.
The Masterton Trophy is presented annually to a player in recognition of perseverance and dedication to the sport. It is named for Bill Masterton, who died in 1968 as a result of injuries sustained during a game.
Sullivan missed nearly two full years with a back injury, which required multiple surgeries.
He returned to action this past January and had 32 points (11 goals, 21 assists) in 41 games, including 27 points (11 goals, 16 assists). The Predators were 22-14-5 with him in the lineup and 6-2-1 when he scored. Without him, they were 18-20-3.
With a cracking voice, his brief acceptance speech was a litany of thanks. Among those he recognized were:
• His wife and four children, "who were absolutely rocks throughout this two-year roller coaster ride."
• Predators' general manager David Poile and the orgnization as a whole "for allowing me to pursue all avenues to try to get back from this injury and allowing me all the time needed to get back."
• His teammates "for never stop believing in me."
• Finally, Predators' fans "who stood behind me throughout this whole time."
Local members of the Professional Hockey Writers Association nominate one player from each team for the award. The overall membership then votes from that list of 30.
In April, the top three vote-getters were named finalists. Detroit defenseman Chris Chelios and Florida forward Richard Zednik were the other two.
"Steve Sullivan epitomizes all the qualities that the Masterton Trophy stands for and we are thrilled that he has been recognized for all of the hard work and dedication he has shown to both our team, and the sport of hockey," Poile said. "Not only did he serve as an inspiration for our team and community off the ice, but was a significant contributor to the club as he regained his form."
Also on Thursday, the NHL announced its 2008-09 All-Star teams, and Nasvhille defenseman Shea Weber narrowly missed out [1] on a spot.

Anyway, Factory 's the middle book of a trilogy which is itself the middle trilogy of a cycle of nine books about the Selenite space adventurer Esteban
An astronomer picks the Chief Selenite up off its throne and dashes it to the ground, exploding it.
A Selenite tries to seize the capsule at the last minute.
Astronomer, capsule, and Selenite fall through space and land in an ocean on Earth, where all are rescued by a ship and towed ashore.
At this point, a Selenite (an alien inhabiting the Moon, apparently part man and part insect) appears, but it is easily killed by an astronomer (the creatures explode if whacked with a stick or umbrella).
I have one -- a valuable item -- namely, a Selenite crystal about the size of a small magick wand.
There is an enormous system of caverns in which the mooncalves shelter during the night; and there are abattoirs and the like — in one of these it was that I and Bedford fought with the Selenite butchers — and I have since seen balloons laden with meat descending out of the upper dark.
I had turned about to the time when the dead Selenite hit the ground.

IT security and control firm Sophos has announced new key features to its managed WS1000 web security appliance that enable organisations to keep pace with evasive end-user tools, and the latest threats to security and compliance.
Offered as a free and automatic upgrade, the new features include multi-layer protection against anonymising proxies, which can be used to avoid URL filtering controls, as well as providing HTTPS scanning and a host of end-user enforcement and reporting improvements. These new features will allow Sophoss channel partners to improve their offer to customers, directly addressing the need for ever more rigorous solutions.
The latest research from Sophos highlights the worsening state of security on the web. SophosLabs today finds an average of one new malware-infected webpage every five seconds a threefold increase over 2007 with 90 percent of compromised pages being found on legitimate sites.
Exacerbating the situation for IT departments are tools such as anonymising proxies. Based on customer feedback, Sophos notes that this is particularly prevalent and problematic in the education sector, where students often resist controls and have advanced knowledge of web technologies. In this environment, IT departments are subject to strict guidelines designed to protect students from exposure to inappropriate or unsafe content.
These updates to the WS1000 are allowing us to offer a product that directly addresses the top concerns of school IT departments, said Mark Gillett, director, Phoenix Software Limited. Schools can now make sure that students are not getting around web filtering by using proxy sites, while at the same time ensuring that the internet can be used to improve learning without unnecessary restrictions.
With fast, full spectrum managed threat protection including URL-based filtering, real-time malware scanning and content filtering the WS1000 has already established itself as a best-in-class solution in the marketplace for web security.
The new features of the WS1000 include the Proxy Reputation Service. This involves tracking the vast array of internet blogs, mailing lists and forums that share anonymising proxy sites and services as they become available and immediately publishing updates to the block list. The real-time Proxy Scanner is a patent-pending detection engine that decodes and inspects every web request for signs that the traffic is being intentionally routed through an anonymising proxy.
HTTPS scanning enables scanning and filtering of SSL-encrypted traffic. This has historically been a significant blind spot for security solutions. With the addition of HTTPS scanning, Sophos can help organisations ensure that no malware is being transferred or policies violated when communicating over HTTPS in applications such as webmail.
Another new feature, SafeSearch Enforcement, ensures that the safe search mode is enforced within major search engines such as Google, Yahoo! and MSN to further protect networks from infected or inappropriate site results.
The updated WS1000 also offers enhancements to reporting. New, user-specific, activity reporting covers categories, sites visited and time online and allows for behaviour tracking against acceptable use policies and for conducting forensic audits.
"The internet provides great value to schools and their pupils, and its use for learning is to be actively encouraged - but we all know that this resource can be abused, and that the internet plays host to material that is inappropriate for school children, said Andrew Bradshaw, VP at Sophos UK. It's important for schools to have the highest level of protection, allowing them to maximise the impact of online learning without the risks. By developing products that address these issues, Sophos is helping its channel partners to offer their customers solutions suited directly to their needs.

Because We Can flexes its 3-D whimsy
Designers harness robotics to create whimsical one-offs
Updated 2:07 pm, Friday, March 15, 2013
This is the story of three creative couples - and a robot named Frank. And of the often far-out spaces they have been able to conjure up together.
The main characters in this story are both bookish and slight, but also highly, quietly ambitious: Architect Jeffrey McGrew and his wife, Jillian Northrup, a graphic designer and photographer, run Because We Can, what they call a design-build studio in West Oakland.
They were working other jobs - she shooting photos for retail companies and weddings, he at the major international architectural firm Gensler - when they purchased Frank, a Shopbot CNC router, and began to make one-off pieces of furniture and assorted oddments for their friends.

They gave up their day jobs in 2006, and since then have been filling, with Frank's aid, Bay Area interiors with their often quirky furniture and fixtures. "One of our first big projects was a steampunk office for a gaming company," Northrup says, referring to Three Rings, the local outfit that produces the popular computer game Puzzle Pirates. "The offices were featured in Wired magazine. We became known for that space."
Because We Can's portfolio has much work in this playful, neo-Victorian vein - their rooms often look ripped from the pages of Hergé's Tintin. But their mastery of the latest generation of design software and Frank's versatility mean they can easily shift styles, and have created spaces that are cleaner, more modern.
"The work is what comes out of the intensive interview with the clients, and our ongoing back and forth with them," says McGrew, who built homes to put himself through university. "Not everything we do is so full of filigree, so ... baroque."
"But much of it is," Northrup says, with a laugh.
One of the people who inspired McGrew and Northrup to start their atelier is architect and Cranbrook Academy of Art Professor William Massie, a pioneer of digitally driven design. He comments on Because We Can's work, and the work of others like them: "With the growing sophistication of both the software and the fabricating robots and 3-D printers, design can become one-off again.
"From at least the end of WWII to about 2000, design was often about combining more mass-produced items or elements. That was where the originality lay, in the combinations. This is changing now, as we're able to go back to individually designed and crafted objects."
Just how individualized and responsive to a client's needs - and whims - design can become is apparent during a visit to the second couple's house, a San Francisco Victorian atop a hill between Noe Valley and the Castro. Sue Johnston is a Stanford-educated engineer, Eric Johnston is a Berkeley grad who works in film, and both like to tinker in their off-hours. He hacks hardware, does some programming; she does complicated glasswork and laser-etches labels to put on gifts. They recently collaborated on a precisely calibrated glass-and-brass device to watch and measure an eclipse.
"We had a spare room filled with junk and a few wobbly tables," Sue Johnston says. "But we wanted a space where we could both work on our projects, and I liked the images I saw online of their work. Their work seemed a fit with this Victorian house."
What resulted was what they all call a mad scientist's office. The L-shaped desk for two meets at a hexagonal column that acts as a hinge, enabling the desk to fold in and out. At her end, Sue Johnston has a butcher's block at the right height for her to do her glasswork; on his end, there's space for the many wires he customarily requires.
A glass-fronted armoire nearby displays some of their inventions and works in progress. With interior drawers with sides shaped like gears, it stores her sewing machine. The sides open to reveal a hidden pegboard where his heavy and precision tools hang.
"There are some secrets they put in this cabinet that we still haven't solved," Eric Johnston says, opening a hatch that has a mysterious key, use unknown, in it.
Attached to the home office's walls is an open-topped steel tube that their sociable cat Miette trots along to take her around the room (to various viewing areas and a pet-me place), and then to the top of the armoire. "She lords it over us from up there," Sue Johnston says. "We were so relieved she liked the tube."
The work on the office went back and forth between the designers and their clients, all of them full of ideas. The originator of the hinged-desk idea, Eric Johnston did up a full-size cardboard model of it to see how it would fit in the space. "That hard line between clients and designers, you don't have to have that anymore," Northrup says. "We work with a lot of funky people, with lots of ideas."
"Funky" is perhaps one good word both for the third couple and the SoMa office where we meet. The pirate game producer Three Rings' space is the one that really jump-started Because We Can's recession-defying success. The main theme here is Jules Verne's "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea," with beanbag chairs shaped like octopus tentacles for staffers to lie on in front of a screen, and desks with nautical-themed cutout panels illustrating parts of that fantastical old sea story.
To get from one part of the office to the other, we pass through a Frank-produced replica of the police box that Dr. Who traveled through time in; at the back of the office is a bookcase full of pirate reference tomes; a latch in an antique phone on one shelf allows the bookcase to swing open to reveal a secret conference room.
The gaming company's principal Daniel James met McGrew and Northrup when they ran an outdoor game in Union Square where one team had to try to smuggle (fake) jewels from the periphery to the center, and the other's job was to stop them.
For James' outdoor wedding to Eunice Moyle, founder of Hello!Lucky stationery, the designers did up a colorful, curlicued stage and various signs to direct guests to the site.
"We brought the stage home," Moyle says. "It's now this great presence in our house. A while after the birth of our son - he's now nearly 3 - we knew we needed something to keep him from pushing through the windows."
So the graphically talented Moyle collaborated with Because We Can to create a trippy (and physically strong) screen of silhouetted plants and animals for their Haight-Ashbury apartment - a concept Because We Can has reused for other clients, cutting the custom-designed screens to fit differently sized windows.
Former editor in chief of Wired magazine Chris Anderson, author of "Makers: The New Industrial Revolution," sees the future in robots like Frank and the software that harnesses their abilities to make one-off or small batches of things.
"The beauty of the Web is that it democratized the tools both of invention and production," he writes. "We are all designers now. It's time to get good at it."
Robotics: Rise of the machines
"A once-shuttered warehouse is now a state-of-the art lab where new workers are mastering the 3-D printing that has the potential to revolutionize the way we make almost everything." This was President Obama in last month's State of the Union address, praising one of 12 labs nationally that it is hoped will spark a new industrial revolution in the United States.
Like the 3-D printers, the industrial robot used by the Oakland design-build studio Because We Can is able to take designs mocked up on the computer and make them real. Frank is a 5-by-10-foot table, with a large Dremel tool on top that can move in almost any configuration, to carve and cut wood.
"You draw or model something in three dimensions on the computer and then it cuts it out," the firm's principal Jillian Northrup says.
"This so-called 'digital fabrication' has been around for a while, but what's new is that it recently became affordable enough for architects and artists like us to use it." When they purchased Frank in 2006, he was the previous year's model, and cost only $8,000.
Frank takes cues directly from the AutoCAD Revit software, produced by San Rafael's Autodesk. If the pair want to cut glass, they send the digital CAD file to a glass shop with a water-jet cutter (similar to Frank, but adept at cutting glass); to cut or shape metal, they forward the finalized design file to a shop with a metal robot, and vinyl decals (which they sometimes use) to a robot-equipped local sign shop. "There's a rich fabrication industry in the Bay Area that can create parts for our designs."
In the early years of the Industrial Revolution, the critic John Ruskin praised the medieval craftsmen who'd done the stonework on the Gothic cathedrals, and lamented what he saw as their impending disappearance.
"It's coming full circle, back to Ruskin," digital design pioneer William Massie says. "The new thing is that unique designs don't have to be too expensive."
Northrup estimates that a custom home office or a nursery might cost between $15,000 and $40,000 all in, depending on the difficulty of the design and the number of one-off pieces involved.

Find information about Lake Sumter State College frat houses, and registering for elective lectures and seminars. As a student, your first stop should be the registrar's office, where you can pick up a free copy of both the academic calendar and course catalog, in order to find available credit classes that you may be interested in taking. It may surprise you that it's possible to enroll for a full-time course load, without having any 8am classes at all. Finally, check with your major department for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Lake Sumter State College student life information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Lake Sumter State College.
If you decide to rush a fraternity or join a sorority, there are several factors you should take into account before you get overwhelmed by all the attention they are giving you. The brothers or sisters have their own agenda, and need to fill up the house with a new pledge class every year. Look at the clothes everyone is wearing, and especially their shoes. Are these the same clothes and shoes that you always wear? How do people talk? Do they make sense to you, and seem like the same crowd of friends you left back home?
Nobody wants to feel left out, so you may find yourself spending money you can't afford, and focusing more on fitting into your fraternity or sorority house, than concentrating on doing well in college. Alternatively, if you fit right in, the frats and sororities can be a great place to spend you college career, making life-long friendships, and having the time of your life. Beyond consideration for Lake Sumter State College frat houses, you may think about Ferris State University online undergraduate classes for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

I felt it better to use a straightforward method before introducing factoring and so on.
There are a few ways to solve.
and are the two possible answers.
Here is an explanation of why 3 is an answer.
If two values are equal, then when we subtract them the answer is zero.
Factor as x is common
The factors of 6 that differ by 1 are 3 and 2.
Therefore x is 3 and (x-1) is 2.
and so and is an alternative.
If that makes sense, you could try later.
Frankly I have written for this kind of test, albeit in a different state in the US.
I will tell you the objective of the question.
You are given an option of say five different choices.
Probability three of which are wildly off.
So that leaves only two to check. Which gives
What this tests is your understanding of the meaning of a zero of a function?
If you have to actually take time to solve the equation, then that docks time from you on the rest of the test. So understanding the basic concepts improves your overall score.
In the case of your question,
were you given values from which to choose ?
In that case, you only need place the values into the equation to see which one gives you zero,
as Plato showed.
If x=2
which is not zero.
If x=5
which is not zero.
If x=3
and that is zero.
No need for factoring...

Mira Vision 1.1797.003 Digital Shower Concealed (High Pressure / Combination) Reviews
I ordered a Mira Vision digital concealed shower unit . Apart from some issues with the courier the shower was received and installed in one day . Instructions were easy to follow and the installation was straight forward,I commissioned it with ease, connected it to an existing drench shower head and it works fantastically. Very easy to use start/stop button at the bottom ,temperature +/- on left hand side and flow rate up/down on right side and the unit does the rest
Extremely happy Consumer
Previously to these I had installed three Grohtherm Wireless units which were problematic with regards to holding temperature and water getting into the controllers. This unit did have some great features though and it was such a shame about the reliability and the fact that Grohe would not repair them after they discontinued the product a year or two ago. I took a new Grohe Digital F unit FOC from Grohe and this also has its issues. The wireless range on the unit is almost nothing and the controller (puck) is very temperamental with regards to overriding temperature. At the factory it is set to 38 degrees which is just to cool for me (typical showering temp is said to be 38 to 42 degrees). The max the unit can be set to before you have to use the temperature override facility is 40 degrees which is still to cool for me. after that you have to go through a complicated press of the puck buttons (with lights flashing at you like youre back watching Close Encounters of the Third Kind). There is definitely a knack to it which is so not user friendly. Even their engineer couldnt get it right and kept missing the menu. As for me I never managed to do it once before the engineer arrived or even in the presence of the engineer. At the end of my tether I ripped it out and installed the Mira Vision and Im so pleased with it. Its compact, the range is great and the head is a work of art. At this price they are a steel and Im about to buy three more. Do note though I have not used the slide rail kit or accessories as I had the Grohe already installed so I cant comment on the quality of parts here and how easily they are installed.
I bought this shower after having a bad experience with a similar product from another manufacturer (redring Galaxy digital shower). I was impressed from the moment it arrived. It was well packaged and came with good instructions and connectors required for plumbing in. The installation process was easy (Some may find the rear feed from the wall a little tricky although the actual parts and fittings are very good). The shower works really well and we now have control of both temperature and flow. I would highly recommend this product and it completely outclassed the Galaxy that I had originally purchased. This shower is quite expensive but is ideal when retrofitting into a bathroom that has already been decorated as there is just one hole to make in the wall and the rest can be installed under the bath on in the loft above.

Amazing shower, I'm used to electric showers because I used to rent. Bought a house 6 months ago and my builder kept saying get an electric shower. I refused because they are rubbish. After doin some research I found mira. Bought it and no looking back. Superb shower. Powerful, hot, consistent. Amazing.
Have installed many of these and very simple to use and a handy pre heat function too!
Great service and fantastic product

Peeling Back the Label It can be confusing trying to make sense of all the environmental claims plastered on food products lining grocery store aisles. Here's the truth behind the print.
Take a look at your local grocer's shelves and you'll see food with stickers and packages promoting an array of feel-good, environment-friendly assertions-from "cage free," "hormone free," and "all natural" to "organic," "fair trade," and even "biodynamic." There's a reason for all this green branding. Since 2003 U.S. organic food sales have more than doubled, to roughly $25 billion. The booming demand for organic foods is making greenwashing more tempting-and more lucrative-than ever before. One study found that about a third of all new food products launched in 2008 claimed to be "natural."
With all the different green food labels-there are about 100, depending on how you choose to define them-figuring out which ones are the most meaningful can be challenging. The mother of all eco-labels is, of course, "organic." Experts say this one showed the way in terms of defining methods of growing food that are gentler on the landscape. But even "organic" has its limitations. For one, organic certification addresses neither working conditions for farm workers nor impacts on wildlife habitat or water quality.
What this all means is these days, you really have to do your homework to know what you're buying, even if the packaging does have an eco-friendly seal. The following lists aim to peel back the labels.

Tribal Delegate
Legislate bills that improve the lives of Native American tribe members.
What does a Tribal Delegate do?
Each Native American tribe has its own government that acts as a link between the federal government and the tribe. These tribal governments are made up of a President, Vice President, and council. A Tribal Delegate is part of the governing council and has the power to form laws that are right for the tribe in a way Washington D.C. could never manage.
Like a State Senator, a Tribal Delegate votes on laws and statutes that affect his or her area. Sometimes, as a Tribal Delegate, you're forced to make unpopular decisions, as the people up top aren't always sympathetic. No matter the decision, though, your goal as a Tribal Delegate is to create some positive change towards bettering the life of your tribe.
Keeping on top of the news and staying tied to your community allow you to represent the people you serve. You're an active member of the tribe. Knowing the people within it and the issues that are important to them keeps getting you reelected to the council.
Do schools have enough funding? Does a giant corporation want to build a lavish supermall on tribal lands? To find out, you interview tribe members, follow the news, and hold community events and forums to hear public opinions. As a Tribal Delegate, you're in charge of caring about what your people care about.
The fellow tribe members you speak for are often underrepresented on Capitol Hill. They aren't the national Legislator 's main concern, so you're the one who makes sure they're heard. Bringing a voice to those who are seldom listened to is one of your most fruitful rewards.

Rotorsim, the joint venture owned equally by CAE (NYSE: CAE; TSX: CAE) and AgustaWestland, a Finmeccanica company, today announced that ENAC (the Italian Civil Aviation Authority) has certified a CAE 3000 Series AW139 full-flight simulator (FFS), jointly developed by AgustaWestland and CAE, to Level D, the highest qualification for flight simulators. The new AW139 FFS, the third for Rotorsim, is the second located at the AgustaWestland Training Academy in Sesto Calende, Italy. This simulator is installed in the new simulation building which will include up to nine FFSs and five FTDs (Flight Training Devices) further expanding the Training Academy capabilities.
John Ponsonby, Senior VP Customer Support & Training Services said, "This third AW139 simulator for Rotorsim includes added mission equipment features that allow us to deliver high quality mission training for roles such as search and rescue to our customers. The availability of this AW139 simulator further boosts our capacity to meet growing customer demand for high quality simulator training and the increasing fleet size for what is the world's best selling helicopter in its class."
"Helicopter operators are continuing to fully understand how simulation-based training is proven to be one of the best approaches for improving safety, operational efficiency and mission readiness," said Ian Bell, CAE's Vice President and Business Leader - Europe. "By formally certifying another AW139 simulator to Level D, Rotorsim is helping to ensure that operators of AgustaWestland helicopters receive access to the highest fidelity training systems."
The CAE 3000 Series helicopter mission simulator features unprecedented realism for helicopter-specific mission training, including offshore oil and gas producer (OGP), law enforcement, corporate VIP and other operations. The simulator enables pilots to practice challenging procedures without risk such as low-level flight, confined area operations, autorotation and landing on platforms at sea. The AW139 FFS for Rotorsim features AgustaWestland-developed flight dynamic model, avionics and aircraft software modeling, combined with CAE core simulation technologies, including: CAE True six degree-of-freedom (DOF) electric motion system and high-performance vibration platform to replicate vibration cues critical to helicopter pilots; a high-fidelity CAE Medallion-6000 visual system; and a direct projection 210 degree by 80 degree extreme field-of-view dome display system. This new AW139 FFS also features important mission kits such as SAR autopilot modes, FIPS (Full Icing Protection System), hoist and cargo hook operations with external cameras, EURONAV V digital map, AIS transponder, cockpit central display and floatation system.
Rotorsim was established in 2003 as a joint venture of AgustaWestland and CAE to provide classroom and synthetic training solutions for AgustaWestland AW109 and AW139 helicopter operators around the world. The Rotorsim training centre in Italy is located within the AgustaWestland 'A. Marchetti' Training Academy and now houses three CAE-built FFSs. Two of these simulators feature CAE's revolutionary roll-on/roll-off cockpit design, enabling cockpits representing the AW139 and three variants of the AW109 to be used in the two simulators. Rotorsim also offers training on a CAE-built AW139 simulator located at CAE's North East Training Centre near New York City. Rotorsim is also offering training in Sesto Calende, Italy, on the NH90 NATO Frigate Helicopter (NFH), and later this year will add the world's first AW189 FFS.

As my season at the tower is coming to an end, I have so much to be grateful for. Overall, it was a great season.
Translation. The bugs weren't too bad. Seriously. Such. A. Blessing.
But there was other stuff too. The noise they told me about; coming from all the industry that has popped up around the tower, wasn't bad and some days almost none existent. Bonus! The road coming out to the tower has been well maintained so going into town was more regular than it had been in the past. Translation? Running out of food was rarely a problem except for that one time where I panicked. But I learned my lesson and realized I could get through just about anything. I managed to have decent internet out at the cabin which is saying a lot since it's in the middle of nowhere. It came at a cost…but I'm still grateful. After all, it's the reason I was able to share all my creations over the last 5 months with all of you.

They took us to the lodge where we would be staying. We unloaded our stuff and met the staff and established a game plane. We decided to go and hunt the last of the evening and to see what happened. Kirk and I went to a big meadow and did some bugling and cow calling. Two nice bulls come into the meadow. Then we saw a bull come out of a Willow thicket with palmation on his right side. I told Kirk I wanted to try to get that bull. He answered, ?come on I think I know where he is going.? We took out thru the woods and set up about 15 yards off a main elk trail. It was the right decision. About ten minutes later we spotted the bull thru the Aspen trees, walking in our direction. He made his way about 15 yards from us … and spotted us. We had a stare down contest for about 20 minutes. The bull just could not figure out what we were and finally busted out. We left out and met up with the other guys and made went back to the lodge. Before daylight the next morning Kirk and I went back to the same place. Ten minutes after daylight we had 5 bulls in the meadow. They bugled and started fighting and put on quite a show. The bull I was after showed up and ran off some of the smaller bulls. Then the bulls spooked for some reason and ran into the brush. Kirk told me that he thought the bulls would go to the same place as yesterday. We busted thru the woods and got back to the same trail as earlier. Three bulls came in behind us, so we didn?t know which bull was what. Kirk gave me thumbs up that the 1st bull on the trail was the one. The palmated bull ran up and stopped — looking in the woods in the direction where we were the day before. He kept looking and looking right where we had been yesterday. Finally he started walking on down the trail and I was able to shoot him at 13 yards. Ricky Burnett with his Saskatchewan elk. He used a BowTech bow and Grin Reaper broadheads. Man, this was my 1st elk hunt and it was great. Canada is some beautiful country and excellent hunting. I?m already ready for next year. The guides and the ranch were great and the food at the lodge was great. My bull scored 362 6/8?, not bad for my 1st bull. Ricky Burnett © Copyright 2005 by Bowhunting.net

Squinting, I picked up my phone to check the time: 5:15AM. Why was I awake? Then I remembered last night's storm: lightning, rolling thunder and walls of rain driven by high winds – gusts that tore tree branches ripped up my tomato plants.
The little bull calf must have been frightened. He'd been left in the field after I moved the rest of the herd across the driveway and to a fresh paddock. Darn calf. It just wouldn't stay by its moma. It kept running around me and double-backing to the old field. Crazy kid.
5:15AM. Sunday morning and the cows were mooing like crazy. The unhappy moma bellowed the lead, and the rest of the cows provided boistrous backup.
I pulled on my patched jeans, a tattered black t-shirt and an over-sized white shirt (to keep off bugs), and headed out to find the calf and coax it in with the rest of the herd. Correction: I would try to coax it back to its mom.
(Herding a calf and herding cats have a lot in common.)
Wearing my shin-high Muck boots, I was half-way across the wet field when I noticed a strange white patch moving within a shadowy stand of poplars. It bobbed about five feet above the grass. What was that? The little bull calf only reaches my waist, so it wasn't him. Not only that, but all my cattle – BueLingos – have either black or red faces.
The white patch kept approaching.
I stopped cold. Was that a man in our field? The white patch loomed closer. When it stepped out of the trees, I saw it for what it was – a white-faced Hereford cow. What in the world? Where did this thing come from? And how did it get into our fenced-off field?
As I was mulling this over, I also spotted our errant calf. Both he and the hiefer (young female) were standing across the driveway from the rest of the herd. They were separated by 30 feet of gravel driveway and two lines of electric fence. So all this noise wasn't just about the calf, it was also about the strange cow.
I yelled at Dave (he was on the deck enjoying a first cup of coffee), to let him know about the visitor left by last night's storm.
Dave responded with his usual, "What in the world?"
We guessed this young Hereford was spooked by last night's pyrotechnics, wandered over from the neighboring farm, and found (or made) a breach in our perimeter fence.
We took a breath. Seeing that both the Hereford and our little Buelingo were safe, the first order of business was finding the hole in our fence line.
I searched for an hour before church services. Nothing. Dave and I resumed our inspection after brunch. Nada. Our theory: the heifer is a jumper.
If you've never seen it, it's a sight that stops you in your tracks – a 1000-lb bovine easily clearing a 5-ft fence. Breath-taking.
OK. The heifer is safe. The little bull is safe, if temporarily separated from its dam. Our fence line is intact.
Next step: knock on a few doors and find out if any of our neighbors is missing a heifer wearing an ear-tag marked #1.
It took us just a couple of tries. The worried owner lives just across a main road from our farm. She'd been frantic when she discovered her pretty red heifer missing this morning. Mystery solved, but the issue's far from resolved.
Getting the Hereford back to her farm may take a bit of time even though her pasture is just 1/4-mile from us. It could take two days or two weeks to have her join with our herd, calmly move through rotational paddock changes, and finally make it back up to our corral. Once in the corral, we would get her into a hauler, and make the minute-long drive back to her home farm.
BREAKING NEWS: Just got a call from the Hereford's owner. Seems the heifer jumped fences, trotted along the busy county road, turned into her home driveway and jumped back into her own field.
Theory proven. Issue resolved.
Just checked my phone. Storms forecast for Thursday.

I have noticed that at times the wipers, dome light and 4x4 selector switch do not work. Sometimes they will start working while I am driving. All fuses are good. I had a local shop check for codes while the problem was ocuring but nothing showed up. While the scanner was hooked up the wipers made one pass then the problem continued.
I have not noticed any correlation to outside temp, engine temp, or other electrical functions.
Is this the GEM or Body Computer module? Anything else I should check before replacing that?
have the same problem?

Selected Works | Installation Views | Press Release | Press
Eric Firestone Gallery presents:
Eric Firestone Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition featuring new paintings and sculptures by Misaki Kawai at NADA New York 2015. The works on view have been culled from her recent residency in East Hampton, NY, in Winter and Spring of 2015. Her time on the East End has offered Kawai the opportunity to develop ongoing narratives as well as create new ones from a remote and peaceful environment not easily found in Tokyo or New York, where the artist lives and works. For the show, Kawai has constructed a table propped upon sculptures of boxer briefs and t-shirts, and chairs that resemble oversized sneakers with a logo that simply reads, "nice." The imagery in this new series is an overt nod to the commodity and consumer culture that serves as her inspiration.
Kawai isolates the objects and characters that are recurrent in her day-to-day life, as she animates iconic symbols such as cars and furry pets, and combines them with imaginary smiling beasts and cartoons. Often browsing flea markets, 99-cent stores and street vendors near her Bushwick apartment, Kawai finds inexpensive goods emblematic of the real and imagined communities unique to her. These objects are often self-referential, and populate her work, which includes self-portraits that mirror her mood while she works in her studio. For example, she paints a cerulean girl with coiffed plum hair, tears welling up and streaming down her face as she dabs them with a tissue. She explains that it embodies a sad day.
Composition naturally underscores storyline through suspended, whimsical imagery. Kawai employs bold, primary colors, enticing the viewer into scenes with comical characters in strange circumstances; Such as an absurdly colored lion and tiger frolicking as lovers, juxtaposed against an opaque crimson background painted in a pixilated, almost analogue style reminiscent of early video games and animation.
The humor and playfulness that is engrained in the culture of her hometown of Osaka, known as Japan's comedy capital, has tremendously influenced her style and subject matter. Moreover, popular Japanese iconography may have prescribed her use of the Superflat technique. The Superflat movement explores consumerism and sexual fetishism prevalent in post-war Japanese culture, flattening imagery in order to highlight the shallow emptiness of what it depicts. Kawai uses this technique to depict her unique internal dialogue, which is both intensely personal, and universally accessible.
Kawai has exhibited extensively internationally with solo museum exhibitions at ICA Boston; PS1 MOMA, New York; Tokyo Opera City Gallery, Tokyo; Watari Museum of Contemporary Art, Tokyo. Other notable exhibitions include Deitch Projects, New York; Valencia Institute of Contemporary Art, Valencia, Spain; Museum of Modern Art, Toyama, Japan; and The Children's Museum of Art, New York.

Continued from page 1
Another key difference: a lack of ethnic diversity. There are now many Hispanics living in rural areas, but they are largely not citizens and most are recent arrivals, attracted by jobs in the oil fields, slaughterhouses and farms. Many small towns, unlike suburbs, remain more homogeneous than suburbs, emerging as the most heterogeneous of all American geographies. Ethnic cultural cross-pollination occurs regularly in metropolitan suburbs; this is not so common in rural America.
Equally important, environmental issues spin differently in rural areas than in suburbs. Energy development and agriculture drive many rural economies. In some areas, like Ohio and western Pennsylvania, shale oil and gas is bringing long moribund regions back to life. In the Dakotas, parts of Louisiana, Texas and Wyoming, it is ushering in a potentially long-term boom. In contrast, there aren't many oil and gas wells located next to malls and big housing tracks.
This does not mean that suburban voters share the anti-fossil fuel green faith of the urban core. But for them "drill baby drill" represents more a matter of price at the pump than a life and death issue for the local economy. Suburbanites feel the energy issue, but do not live it the way more rural communities do. One of the great ironies of American life is that those who live closest to nature are often less ideologically "green" than those, particularly urbanites, residing in an environment of concrete, glass and steel.
Rural America, of course, is changing, with many areas, particularly in the Plains, getting richer and better educated. These areas are growing faster than the national average and attracting immigrants from abroad and people from other U.S. regions. Yet the influence of newcomers, new wealth and new technology is still nascent. The political pace in rural America today still is being set by an aging, overwhelmingly white and modestly educated demographic.
Until the Republican nomination fight is settled, the party's pandering to the sensibilities of such conservatives in rural areas could prove fatal to its long-term prospects. A Santorum nomination almost guarantees a replay of the Bryan phenomena; no matter how many times he runs, he will prove unlikely to win, even against a vulnerable opponent. Even in losing, his preachy, divisive tone -- on contraception, prayer, the separation of church and state -- has opened a gap among suburban voters that Obama will no doubt exploit.
The suburbs, with its preponderance of white, middle income independent voters, gave the 2008 election to Obama, and that's where the next contest will be decided. The countryside will rally to a GOP standard bearer like Romney, albeit somewhat reluctantly, for both economic and social reasons. The battle will then shift to the suburbs, including those urban areas, common in the vast cities of the South and West, that are predominately suburban in form.
Most of the urban core, meanwhile, will vote lockstep for Obama. But the president, as thoroughly a creature of urban tastes and prejudice as to ever sit in the White House, could prove vulnerable in the suburbs, if the Republicans can deliver a message that is palatable to that geography's denizens.

Top 10 Most Needed Survival SuppliesWhether you believe the future includes an apocalyptic end to life as we know it complete with intense solar flares, reversed polarity, and super volcanos or a glorious rebirth for the virtuous or that nothing on that scale will ever happen, it's still a good idea to have survival supplies. You never know when a natural disaster or some other unforeseen event is going to limit your ability to live as you do now and force you into a preservation mode. Over the past few years we have seen numerous earthquakes, hurricanes, tornados, and man-made catastrophes that have caused people to be without power, fresh water, food, and energy. Preparing for these events will help ensure your survival when civilization as we know it suffers a break-down.
Here are listed the survival supplies you should have in order of importance.
The Top Ten
The human body can survive for up to a month without food and for many months on very meager rations. But the odds are stacked against you of surviving much more than a week without water.
So true. We have plenty of rains and snow.. But still in summer there is water crisis.. So water storage needs to be increased.
This is the best idea here, but what's up with you guys. I would grip some chicks to save.
Good for storing waterV 42 Comments
No matter how much water storage you have, there is a chance you will run out. Make sure you can add to your stash if need be.
This is the best choice because water can be found everywhere. If world falls into a world of disaster, then there should still be some living creatures or plants which you can get liquid from (urine is one idea), but it is not suitable for human drinking, therefore purification kits can help a lot!
I think that is a good idea... Purifying water would be needed more then storing water...
There were lost of cases where people had no water to drink and they purified
The water and survived,
So, I think that it's better to be ready with water purifiers then being prepared with gallons and tones of water...
If you are stranded on an island with no W.P.K you will mide as well kill yourself! derpy=PV 30 Comments
Prior to the modern age of medicine, relatively minor wounds led to death far more often than you would imagine. In wartime just 150 years ago, far more soldiers died from sickness and infection than from actual combat trauma. Having a well stocked first aid kit complete with antibiotics and other infection fighting supplies may be the difference between successfully treating a minor injury and dying a miserable sepsis induced death.
I have been in the 3 world nations and know what is needed. First water, food, and first aid. Top 3. But with out first aid to treat wounds and cut and infections you could die really fast. The first and sec are importionbut the most is medication. Think obama care and then you will understand what I am saying.
Always helpful, and why would you have a gun? It's such a negative idea, I mean you need to heal people more than kill. Right? - marlonacott
A small wound can turn into a more serious problem without first aid.V 12 Comments
If you have ever been in a survival situation then this would be at the top of your list. Here is a short list of what a survival knife could be used for. Cleaning game, preparing shelter, opening food rations, creating shelter, and starting fires (with flint not just a random rock like in the movies)
The knife was created before we were capable (as a species) of harnessing the power of fire.
The knife is the most universal tool ever devised. With a knife you are capable of creating other tools... Such as hammers, axes, water stills (from plastic bottles. ) The knife will always be the one tool man can turn back to in any situation and create a new way to adapt to your surroundings.
This. Using only a knife, I can make many other things from scratch left behind by the fallen human civilization. Food and water is much easier to find, you can build a house, open things you find (canned food, locked doors). It's overall the most versatile item you can possibly have.
They are very useful in kombat and huntingV 19 Comments
This is my handgun. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
My handgun is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.
My handgun, without me, is useless. Without my handgun, I am useless. I must fire my handgun true. I must shoot straighter than my enemy who is trying to kill me. I must shoot him before he shoots me. I will...
My handgun and myself know that what counts in this war is not the rounds we fire, the noise of our burst, or the smoke we make. We know that it is the hits that count. We will hit...
My handgun is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its sights and its barrel. I will keep my handgun clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will...
A handy tool just in case mankind turns to cannibalism... Quick and easy.
This would obviously be handy in a survival situation, but you will be limited in the amount of ammo you can carry, and it would eventually run out. Of course, if you are a very good shot and conserve your ammo, each round may represent food for days or weeks. Also obviously a good form of self defense against animals or hostile humans, but the most likely and common use in survival would be for food (except for true apocalypse situations, in which case a handgun could be your most important tool).
You may need to protect your family or yourself out in the wildV 30 Comments
Yes It would be better with a backpack to carry all of your stuff instead of using your arms all the time so it could carry more stuff and your hands are free. Seriously, whoever thinks it would be harder with a backpack is wrong If you go to school and carry a backpack all day you'll get used to it
Come on. It's a backpack. A backpack! It should be top 15, I'd say.
Backpack is a great idea and it keeps you hands free to use the handgun!
trueV 7 Comments
An unloaded gun is useless! You need to have plenty of ammo! You have to protect what is yours!
Lots of uses other than threatening others, including self-defense, hunting, signalling... And lots of it is needed to train others in marksmanship for hunting/defense. Even without a gun ammo is valuable. Especially if you have popular calibers, you now have something to trade with others.
Waving a gun around may be enough to scare away some, but being armed won't do you nearly as much good if you don't have any bullets.
You will need ammunition for a gun. A gun without shells is useless.V 3 Comments
It can be used to repair everything on this list, you can tie people up, it's waterproof, you can use it as a bandage, fix your clothes, your tents, you can't live without it!
Haven't you all seen the Mythbuster's Duct Tape Island, how they could make water canteens, hammocks, terraniums, shoes, hats and even found a way to get out of the island -----by just using duct tape!
Its duct tape for gods sake.. What else needs to be said I mean really duct tape has many many uses and every single one of them can be helpful
Yeah some people talk a lotV 18 Comments
Very good indeed matches cook food make fire signal people keep warm but possibly I think you can just make a fire out of fire wood
You can't cook without it out there!
Use it to boil your water, cook your food, keep yourself from dying from hypothermia, keeps wild animals off, you can signal using smoke etc
okayV 11 Comments
Freeze dried meals take up a minimal amount of space, provide adequate nutrition and have a shelf life of many years. Plus, they are free from contaminants, something that may not be true of traditional food sources.
Water is 1st, meds, seeds for growing, meats in canneds or livestock, wheat for bread and honey for sweetness.
The Contenders
Come on, if you're just stuck in a place with no food, get on with ya hunting rifles and kill some wild pigs or maybe hunt down a lion for the first time in your life!
Not to mention being able to snipe unwanted visitors and protect your home from long range.
Mainly a 22 you can get squirrels rabbits and other small game that you can eat right then
22's u can use of small animals but they can still be used for hunting bigger animals like deerV 7 Comments
Food and water are actually not as vital as signaling equipment; most people in a survival situation are rescued within 24 hours
You might be hungry so eat food
Shouldn't this be number 1 - JaketheCake8
At least should be in top 5V 11 Comments
Please don't use bad words because my little sister always watches me and I don't want to get in trouble for her finding out about new words. thanks.
Being the only person with lights in the area may attract unwanted visitors
Generator because we all need electricity because it's so hard to do something without electricity..
Useful, but unnecessary. Just have a crank phone and flashlight!V 3 Comments
There's such a thing as an Anti-Radiation Tablet? If there are the chances of finding some are very unlikely.
They do exist, just look up iOSAT Potassium Iodide Pills.
I don't think needs any explaining. Of course you'd need this if radiation is the cause of the apocalypse!
whats thatV 5 Comments
This is one of the most valuable things and should be in the top 5 at least. Good for making bows. Tie yourself to a tree and sleep on top of a tree branch. Also good for making fire starters like the bow drill.
I would put this at number one. Use to make fire (bow drill), purify water (even hot rocks dropped in half coconut if no pot), you can catch food (snares, fishing), tie shelter or raft poles, use to make a vice grip, tongs, the list goes on and on.
Got a buddy in the army who swears by the stuff. Dental floss is also a crucial form of waterproof string.
Funny and also a very good point on what it could be used forV 2 Comments
Reloads quickly and has an endless supply of ammo.
A Machete is critical for a few reasons, very reliable, easier to slice things, and more useful then an ordinary knife.
I think you are nuts man... Have seen too many zombie movies... Come back to the real world!
Not top 3. Anyhow for building more sophisticated shelter in forest "must have" and in some cases usage for self defense.V 5 Comments
Coffee is a must need to be awake to hunt zombies
Huh? We don't NEED coffee to live. Who thought of that?
Coffee really. The alcohol makes more sense than coffee. It has no purpose bedside drinking and it uses up your valuable water supply.
Are u mad? just jokingV 8 Comments
Incase of "fallout", this mask can protect you from from gamma ray particles!
Haha this is hilarious
You maen a nuke riget
Ife bom expoded they be gath evwy were
Can be used as a weapon or getting fish
Make a makeshift spear out of this. Doubles as a fishing spear and a fishing pole. One can use the string to sew stuff like cuts too or tie things with. And where's tin foil? That is so useful, to cook with, cover food and fire with and can catch water too. Plus it's portable, fold it up n carry.
How can it b used as a weapon? Abow? But yes a fishpole is a great overlooked item
it sucksV 1 Comment
Too be aware when the takers comeV 1 Comment

Can I ask you your opinion of CAJ? I've held the stock now for three months and rather than going north, it's been following the birds south……..
Would appreciate your opinion.
Hi Ken,
Thanks for the assignment. Canasia Industries Corporation ( CAJ TSXV) is a mineral exploration company with projects in Canada the U.S., and Mexico. The hunt is on for gold, coal, silver, potash,copper, and lithium. And that could be the problem.
In terms of investor preference there seems to be a bias for pure plays. It seems natural to ask how can you have expertise in the development of properites from gold to lithium? At this particular point in the company's history they are using the shotgun instead of a rifle in an effort to find a property that will get them to focus on one prospect to the exclusion of all others. It is also interesting that when you survey the management team at CAJ they all have backgrounds in finance and accounting but none seem to have technical expertise in geology or mining.
The three year chart provides a good view of what has been a fairly typical pattern. Big drop in 2008 and a nice bounce in 2009.
What I get from this chart is that the 2009 advance stalled when it met resistance near the previous high from the summer of 2008.
The three month chart provides a better view of the advance that perhaps got you excited and its subsequent pull back from the high of $0.405. The RSI generated an overbought signal at the top and the MACD also indicated that the buying surge was coming to an end.
Another factor in the retreat would be related to the private placement that was closed in August that offered units at $0.05. Each unit consisted of a share and a warrant with a strike price of $0.10 good for 5 years. I would have to think that lots of those warrants were turned into cash adding selling pressure on the price.
Right now CAJ is holding on to support on the 200 day moving average and depending on the news coming out of the drilling program that was conducted at the Debut property by Kinross Gold USA you could see some action.
But keep in mind that CAJ is a junior exploration company with no production ,that has to constantly raise money to advance its projects. Next time you are looking in this space make sure to check the paper that has been issued and the background of management.

Watch this short film with your thinking cap on, and I promise it will be the best 11 minutes you'll spend all week.
