The Pros And Cons Of Different Types Of Cat Food
Feline nutrition is very important for general health. However, the plethora of dietary options, brands and formulas available to consumers can be confusing, when deciding which kind of cat food is best for your feline friend's health and wellness.
Unlike humans and various other creatures (dogs included), cats' evolutionary process has resulted in no dietary need for carbohydrates. Just like their undomesticated, and much larger relatives, domesticated cats' bodies have adapted to a protein and fat rich, carbohydrate-poor diet. In the wild, cats use plants, primarily tall and short grass, for digestive regulation and dental support. However, wild cats do not consume vegetable or plant matter for the purpose of energy or nutrition.
High quality cat foods are formulated with this evolutionary platform, and feline nutrition requirements, in mind. The three main types of cat food are:
Kibble (dry)
- Pros: Usually inexpensive, convenient
- Cons: Higher in carbohydrates than desired
Canned (wet)
- Pros: Convenient, usually more nutritious than kibble
- Cons: Usually more expensive than kibble per serving
Fresh (uncooked/processed proteins)
- Pros: Optimal wellness cat food diet
- Cons: Most expensive option, most cats will not except the change to fresh
Cats are unique in their attachment to specific textures of their food and it is difficult to get them to accept/change to other forms of food. For this reason, we recommend that you try to feed kittens a mix of canned and dry with the hope that they will always accept both.
At Newport Harbor Animal Hospital, we take pride in providing our patients and their human caretakers with all the information necessary to help cat owners make educated decisions about all facets of feline nutrition, cat foods included.
Kitten Food
For the first month of a cat's life, kitten food comes in the form of mother's milk, and/or commercial milk replacer formula given every 2-4 hours if the kitten has been separated from its mother. Once this initial period passes, kitten food can become a dietary staple in the following stages, amounts and frequency:
From 3-5 weeks of age, feeding kittens involves offering the milk-replacer formula in a shallow dish to encourage weaning from a bottle. You can also add a moist, easily chewable diet consisting of a mixture of warm milk-replacer and high quality canned or dried kitten food 4-6 times a day.
By 5-8 weeks of age, your kitten should be able to chew its own kitten food, and you should provide a protein rich and energy filled diet, with feedings taking place 3-4 times daily. There are many different types of kitten food available, and we would like to discuss these dietary options with you at your next veterinary appointment. Typically we recommend canned kitten food because it will mimic the natural diet both in consistency and formulation. However, a good diet may also consist of a combination of canned and dry kitten foods. After 6 months of age, kittens should be fed 2 times per day.
Kitten food is usually very high in protein, calories and fats, which are all necessary to support healthy growth and body function. Feeding the right kitten food in the right amounts, and at the right times throughout the day is essential for happy, growing cats. Our veterinary staff would be happy to discuss the best kitten food options for your feline friend, as well as a proper feeding schedule at your next veterinary appointment.
Cat Foods
Although dry cat foods are very popular among cat owners, they should be considered the second choice for cat food. This is because dry foods have a higher carbohydrate count than we consider optimal. In addition, the protein choice tends to be higher in plant and not animal based protein.
The high levels of carbohydrates and plant protein can lead to weight gain and digestive issues, especially in older and more sedentary cats. However, dry food is convenient and the best choice for busy households. Some premium food brands have developed formulas of speciality, prescription formula dry cat foods which can be sound choices for cats with allergies, certain health conditions, and as part of a diet also containing canned or fresh food.
Wet cat foods can have a nutrient profile that mimics the kind of diet cats would choose in the wild. The protein in canned cat food is usually animal based, which means that canned cat food has a nutritional profile that compliments a cat's evolutionary profile and physiological needs. Canned cat food also usually has a low carbohydrate count, and a high water amount.
Fresh cat foods are the same kind of foods a cat would consume in the wild. Fresh cat food diets are high in unprocessed proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals and of course, water. They are also very low in carbohydrates. Unfortunately, it can be very difficult to get your cat to accept a change in food types and texture.
Senior Cat Food
Beginning around 7 years of age, cats begin transitioning from adulthood to the mature/senior stages of life. This transition causes health and lifestyle changes with a cat's:
- Weight
- Skin
- Joints
- Teeth
- Internal organs
If your cat is doing well on his current diet, then there may be no need to change to a different formula. Some brands make a Senior cat food which is specially formulated to deliver ingredients which are more easily digested than standard adult cat foods. Senior cats are more likely to develop health issues related to intestines and kidney disease. There are diets specifically formulated to benefit cats with these issues which may help slow the progression of these diseases.
Your veterinarian can help you choose the best cat food for your senior cat by taking pre-existing medical conditions, current health status and overall lifestyle (indoor, outdoor, sedentary, active, etc.) into account.
Understanding Feline Nutritional Requirements
Cats, like all living creatures, require six classes of nutrients:
Water: The single most important nutrient for sustaining healthy cell and overall body function. Cats lose water through their:
- Lungs
- Skin
- Urine
- Milk
- Feces
Cats also have evolved to receive the majority of the water in their diets through the consumption of food. This is why sound feline nutrition includes a diet that is rich in unprocessed proteins and water. Canned cat foods are usually formulated with water content in mind, and can contain up to 80% of this feline nutrition requirement per serving.
Protein: Protein is a fundamental component of feline nutrition that is necessary for the maintenance and support of a cat's:
- Muscle
- Bone
- Ligaments
- Tendons
Additionally, many of a cat's functional body components are made of proteins, including:
- Enzymes
- Plasma proteins
- Hormones
- Neurotransmitters
Proteins all have their own digestibility profile, because some proteins, like fish and chicken, are more available for use in the body than other proteins, like plant and dairy. Digestibility refers to the net amount of protein that is left after the cat food's chemical breakdown in the body.
Proteins also contain essential amino acids that synthesize, or break down and utilize, the protein molecules themselves. Amino acids are synthesized in the liver with the help of carbon and nitrogen. There are 30 total amino acids, 20 dispensable (or non-essential) and 10 non-dispensable (or essential). Dispensable refers to the ability to be safely absent from a diet. This means the 10 non-dispensable, or essential amino acids, must come from a cat's diet. A high quality cat food that follows a sound feline nutrition requirement protocol will only use unprocessed or minimally processed fish, poultry and meat that contain upwards of 40% of this feline nutrition requirements per serving.
Essential fatty acids: Essential Fatty Acids, also known simply as fats, provide the most concentrated source of energy of any feline nutrition requirement. In cats, fats provide energy, making carbohydrates unnecessary. Fats carry fat soluble vitamins: D, E, A and K.
Fats also supply linoleic and arachidonic acids, which are essential for overall health. Cats that have fat deficiencies will display the following symptoms:
- Stunted growth
- Dry hair/dandruff
- Listlessness
- Infection Susceptibility
A high quality cat food will contain between 20-40% fat (essential fatty acids) of total daily calorie intake.
Vitamins: Vitamins are organic substances (made by plants or animals) that are very important feline nutrition components because they help regulate various body processes, including:
- Boosting immunity
- Support growth and development
- Help cells and organs properly function
There are two types of vitamins, fat soluble and water soluble. We mentioned fat soluble vitamins above, but the difference between them is:
Fat soluble vitamins are processed and can be stored in fat cells. They are generally more sustained release than water soluble vitamins, and also have acute toxicity levels.
Water soluble vitamins must dissolve in water before the body can use them. They cannot be stored and therefore must be replenished with greater frequency than fat soluble vitamins.
The water soluble vitamins are:
- The B Vitamins: Thiamine, Riboflavin, Pyridoxine, Pantothenic Acid, Niacin, B-12
- Vitamin C
A raw or minimally processed cat food diet usually fulfills vitamin requirements naturally through the use of whole foods like chicken, meat and fish. Dry foods usually add synthetic vitamins to make up for the removal of natural ones during processing. Although there is no universally accepted vitamin intake requirement for cats, exhaustive documentation exists to support vitamin intake as part of overall feline nutritional health and wellness.
Minerals: Minerals are inorganic substances that are produced in soil or water, and that are consumed by plants or animals to regulate:
- Acid-base balance
- Tissue structure
- Enzymes
Just like vitamins, there is no universally accepted mineral intake requirement for cats, but volumes of data exist indicating the need of the following minerals to help facilitate healthy body functioning:
- Calcium
- Phosphorus
- Sodium
- Potassium
- Magnesium
- Iron
- Copper
- Zinc
- Iodine
The overall balance of a cat's diet is affected not only by the levels of each individual minerals, but also by the interactions between them. For this reason, we recommend consulting a veterinarian or veterinary nutritionist about mineral amounts and balance when choosing cat food, or cat food supplementation.

(makes one 18cm sponge cake)
for the sponge layer:
100g cake flour
3 eggs, room temperature
90g caster sugar
20g unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons fresh milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
for the filling:
1 pack of strawberries (about 250g)
300ml non-dairy whipping cream
2 tablespoons caster sugar
4 tablespoons hot boiling water
To make the sponge layer:
- Sift cake flour for 3 times, set aside. Line bottom and sides of an 18cm (7 inch) round pan with parchment paper, set aside. Pre-heat oven to 170degC. Position rack at the lower bottom of the oven.
- With an electric mixer, whisk eggs and sugar on HIGH speed for about 5 to 7 mins, until the batter turns pale, becomes thick, double/triple in volume and is ribbon-like (the batter should leave a ribbon-like trail when the beater is lifted up). Turn to LOW speed and whisk for another 1 to 2 mins. Whisking at low speed helps to stabilise the air bubbles in the batter.
- Sift over cake flour into the batter in 3 separate additions. With each addition, use a spatula, gently fold in the flour until well blended. Take care not to deflate the batter.
- Add the melted butter, fold in gently with spatula until well blended
- Add in fresh milk, vanilla extract and fold in gently with spatula until well blended.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30~35 mins, or until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean. Unmold and invert onto cooling rack, cool completely.
- Dissolve caster sugar in hot boiling water, set aside to cool.
- Reserve 10 strawberries for decorating the cake. Slice remaining strawberries into thin slices (about 4 slices per strawberry).
- Slice sponge cake horizontally into 3 layers.
- Whisk non-dairy cream with an electric mixer till stiff peak.
- Place one sponge layer cut-side up on a cake board or serving plate and brush the surface with the sugar syrup. Spread on some whipped cream and arrange the strawberry slices over the surface. Spread over with some whipped cream.
- Brush both sides of the 2nd sponge layer with the sugar syrup and place it over the first layer. Repeat with whipped cream, strawberry slices and whipped cream.
- Brush the cut-side of the 3rd layer with the sugar syrup and place it over the 2nd layer. Frost sides and top of cake with whipped cream. Decorate as desired and garnish with reserved strawberries.

Choosing an Interior Paint Finish:
Put the finishing statement on your paint colour of choice by selecting a sheen that enhances the look of the surface. Sheen, or paint finish, is a measure of how much light reflects off a painted surface, resulting in gloss—or a lack thereof. Consider some of the common sheen uses listed below, or break from tradition and get creative with sheen. While some types of paint finishes may work better in certain areas than others, Benjamin Moore's legacy of innovation ensures that our portfolio of products delivers premium performance across the sheen spectrum.
Sheens and glosses range on a scale from no shine to high shine. Different levels of sheen can affect how colours appear and add dimension to rooms. While there are many different types of sheen, you are most likely to see these seven key interior Benjamin Moore paint finishes during your painting journey:
- Flat
- Matte
- Ulti-Matte
- Low Sheen Eggshell
- Eggshell
- Satin
- Pearl
- Semi-Gloss
- High Gloss
If you're stuck on sheen, ask us to recommend the best finish for your project, we're happy to help!
Flat Paint
Flat paint is a term for a finish that does not reflect light, resulting in no sheen at all. This lack of reflection allows more paint pigment to come through, is more forgiving of flaws and allows for excellent hide, creating a uniform surface.
Similar sheens you may see in our portfolio are ultra flat or ulti-matte. These are close to flat in that there is very little sheen, but you may find slight differences between the three. We can help you determine the sheen you need.
Use caution when considering flat paint in high-traffic areas that require frequent attention. Stains are harder to remove from low-sheen paint, and constant rubbing or cleaning can result in burnishing.
Matte Paint
Matte is more reflective than flat and is also great for minimizing surface imperfections, while providing a durable finish.
Ulti-Matte Paint
Ulti-Matte finish is nearly as shine-free as flat, again providing excellent hide and depth of colour, with slightly more durability. Regal® Select Interior Ulti-Matte is a professional painter favourite for its ease of application and smooth feel after drying. Ulti-Matte finish paint also withstands frequent washing, even when applied in busier areas like hallways and family rooms.
An ulti-matte look lends a luxurious touch to many interior spaces, including bedrooms and dining rooms. Bathrooms and areas that are exposed to more moisture can be painted in an ulti-matte finish using Aura® Bath & Spa, which was designed to achieve exceptional durability, colour retention and mildew resistance in high-humidity environments.
LOW SHEEN Eggshell Paint
This waterborne interior Low Sheen Eggshell Finish provides the washability of a semi-gloss in a softer sheen, based on a proprietary cross-linking acrylic resin that tints on the Gennex® zero VOC colorant system.
Eggshell Paint
Eggshell finish, a perennially popular with professional and DIY painters alike, has a low-sheen reminiscent of flat or ulti-matte, but it is infinitely more durable than its namesake.
Widely available in a variety of Benjamin Moore interior paints, eggshell (and its comparable—but not exact—sheen sibling, low lustre) provides an easy-to-clean, nearly shine-free finish, suited for most areas of a home, including family rooms and hallways. While it reflects more light than flat or ulti-matte finishes, its soft glow casts colours beautifully, especially in Aura® Interior Eggshell, our most premium paint, a great choice for your most-loved spaces.
Satin Paint
Often confused with other finishes, the difference between eggshell and satin paint is that satin delivers a higher gloss, while offering better stain resistance and durability than lower sheens, including eggshell.
Satin paint is ideal for areas that crave definition. Use its distinctive lustre to highlight windows, shutters, trim and even interior doors. Also in this category is soft gloss paint, which, while not an exact match for satin paint, offers a similar higher-gloss, better-durability finish.
Pearl Paint
A pearl finish is a medium gloss that maintains high durability. Both beautiful and easy to clean, a pearl finish lends dimension to trim while being optimal for walls in high-traffic areas. Regal® Select Interior Pearl has a finish that can be used everywhere from wainscotting to doors, and offers mildew resistance for high-humidity areas.
When choosing this finish, make sure you follow manufacturer's application tips and paint carefully, as paint with a pearl sheen is more susceptible to showing lap marks and other painting flaws.
Semi-Gloss Paint
The luminous look of a semi-gloss paint is perfectly suited to highlight the architectural details of your home and create dimension on millwork, trim, and doors. Semi-gloss is available in most Benjamin Moore interior paints, but we especially love the look of ADVANCE® Interior Semi-Gloss; it cures to a smooth, furniture-like finish, and its glossy look makes it one of the best paint finishes for kitchen cabinets.
High Gloss Paint
Offering a mirror-like finish, high gloss sits on top of the sheen chart. This finish, offered in some paints such as ADVANCE® Interior High Gloss, is extremely durable and offers elegant shine. It is easy to clean, stain-resistant and will add a stunning look to doors, trim, and even a high-traffic kitchen.
Many interior designers (and adventurous homeowners) like to experiment with high gloss paint in unexpected areas, such as the ceiling or an accent wall. Keep in mind, however, that high gloss paints require careful application and preparation best left to a professional painter. If you're committed to a DIY-approach, practice your technique and prime any surfaces to ensure they are even and clean prior to paint application. Since a gloss finish reflects light and can accentuate blemishes, avoid using it on areas that are not completely smooth.

1I made a covenant with my eyes
not to gaze upon a virgin.
2What portion comes from God above,
what heritage from the Almighty on high?
3Is it not calamity for the unrighteous,
and woe for evildoers?
4Does he not see my ways,
and number all my steps?a
5If I have walked in falsehood*
and my foot has hastened to deceit,
6Let God weigh me in the scales of justice;
thus will he know my innocence!b
7If my steps have turned out of the way,
and my heart has followed my eyes,
or any stain clings to my hands,
8Then may I sow, but another eat,
and may my produce be rooted up!
9If my heart has been enticed toward a woman,
and I have lain in wait at my neighbor's door;
10Then may my wife grind for another,
and may others kneel over her!
11For that would be heinous,
a crime to be condemned,c
12A fire that would consume down to Abaddon*
till it uprooted all my crops.d
13Had I refused justice to my manservant
or to my maidservant, when they had a complaint against me,
14What then should I do when God rises up?
What could I answer when he demands an account?
15Did not he who made me in the belly make him?
Did not the same One fashion us in the womb?
16If I have denied anything that the poor desired,e
or allowed the eyes of the widow to languish
17While I ate my portion alone,
with no share in it for the fatherless,
18Though like a father he* has reared me from my youth,
guiding me even from my mother's womb—
19If I have seen a wanderer without clothing,
or a poor man without covering,
20Whose limbs have not blessed me
when warmed with the fleece of my sheep;
21If I have raised my hand against the innocent
because I saw that I had supporters at the gate—*
22Then may my arm fall from the shoulder,
my forearm be broken at the elbow!
23For I dread calamity from God,
and his majesty will overpower me.
24Had I put my trust in gold
or called fine gold my security;
25Or had I rejoiced that my wealth was great,
or that my hand had acquired abundance—
26Had I looked upon the light* as it shone,f
or the moon in the splendor of its progress,
27And had my heart been secretly enticed
to blow them a kiss with my hand,
28This too would be a crime for condemnation,
for I should have denied God above.g
29Had I rejoiced at the destruction of my enemy
or exulted when evil came upon him,h
30Even though I had not allowed my mouth to sin
by invoking a curse against his life—
31Had not the men of my tent exclaimed,
"Who has not been filled with his meat!"*
32No stranger lodged in the street,
for I opened my door to wayfarers—
33* Had I, all too human, hidden my sins
and buried my guilt in my bosom
34Because I feared the great multitude
and the scorn of the clans terrified me—
then I should have remained silent, and not come out of doors!
35* Oh, that I had one to hear my case:
here is my signature:* let the Almighty answer me!
Let my accuser write out his indictment!i
36Surely, I should wear it on my shoulder*
or put it on me like a diadem;
37Of all my steps I should give him an account;
like a prince* I should present myself before him.
38If my land has cried out against me
till its furrows wept together;
39If I have eaten its strength without payment
and grieved the hearts of its tenants;
40Then let the thorns grow instead of wheat
and stinkweed instead of barley!
The words of Job are ended.
* [31:5–34] In a series of purificatory oaths, Job protests his innocence.
* [31:12] Abaddon: see note on 26:6.
* [31:18] He: presumably God.
* [31:21] Gate: cf. notes on 5:4; Ru 4:1.
* [31:26–28] Light: of the sun. Job never sinned by worshiping the sun or the moon. Blow them a kiss: an act of idolatrous worship.
* [31:31] The members of his extended family will testify to his hospitality.
* [31:33–34] Job's present protest is made, not in spite of hidden sins which he had been unwilling to disclose, but out of genuine innocence. All too human: can also be translated "like Adam."
* [31:35–37] This concluding bravado fits better after v. 40a.
* [31:35] My signature: lit., "tau," the last letter of the Hebrew alphabet, shaped like a cross. Job issues a subpoena to God, and challenges him to follow proper legal procedure as well.
* [31:36] On my shoulder: i.e., boldly, proudly.
* [31:37] Like a prince: not as a frightened criminal.

faience (or faïence)
Glazed earthenware. Although the term originally referred only to the tin glazed earthenware made at Faenza, Italy, it is sometimes used to refer to a paste which produces a glaze-like surface when fired. Also, glazed earthenware used for architectural purposes. Although the term is sometimes used to mean pottery of all kinds, this breadth of meaning is widely considered incorrect. (pr. feye-ahns')
The triangular space on a building formed by the two angles of a pitched roof. Gables are integral elements in Queen Ann style and 17th-century Dutch domestic architecture.
A unit of liquid measurement (US) equal to four quarts, or to eight pints, or to 128 fluid ounces. To convert gallons into liters, multiply them by 3.7854. Abbreviated gal.
Galvanizing is a process by which steel is coated with zinc to prevent rusting. Painting on galvanized steel requires a special primer.
A carved stone architectural element which serves as a waterspout on the wall of a building. Gargoyles are shaped as grotesque monsters or beasts, and were particularly popular on Gothic cathedrals.
Example: Chartes Cathedral, Chartes, France, begun c. 1145
To measure; or, a certain unit of measure. Often refers either to a device used to measure the thickness of sheet metal or thickness of wire, or to the thickness of sheet metal or wire expressed in terms of a standard system. (pr. gayj)
A rounded metal clamp, used to squeeze materials together by adjusting a screw thread, as when drilling, sawing, or gluing.
See Also: adhesives
A material made from animal glue which is flexible when warm and can be used for mold-making. Gelatin has largely been supplanted for such uses by latex, silicones and polyurethanes.
See Also: adhesives
Plaster or a fine plaster-like material made of gypsum, which is also called whiting, used for sculptures. An especially versatile medium in reliefs, gesso can be either the material cast in a mold or the material of a mold, a material to be modeled, or carved, or attached to something else. When used for mold into which molten metal is poured, it must be hardened with sand as a grog. Gesso may also refer to such a gypsum material mixed with an animal-hide glue and used as a ground for painting. For this latter use, it is usually applied to the surface of a wood panel or sculpture to become the surface on which an artist paints. Used by Gothic and Renaissance panel painters, and used today. Like all other dusts, airborne gesso is hazardous to breath-- every user must wear an appropriate face-mask. (pr. jes'soh)
The practice of applying a thin coat of gold to a painting, sculpture, or piece of furniture. Gilding was heavily used in the work of Late Gothic Italian painters. These artists depicted, among other things, the halos of angels in gold, emphasizing the decorative surface of the panels.
Example: Duccio's Virgin and Child Enthroned with Saints, 1308-1311
See Also: fire gilding, oil gilding, water gilding
A strong or annoying and unwanted light, such as reflected from glass covering a picture. Also, a garishness or gaudiness; something overly conspicuous or obtrusive.
A hard material made of silicates and an alkali fused with other substances. It is brittle, transparent or translucent, and considered to be a supercooled liquid rather than a true solid. It solidifies from a molten state, in an amorphous rather than a crystalline structure. Oxides fused within or upon molten glass can produce brilliant colors. In prehistoric times objects were carved from natural glass such as obsidian and rock crystal. The earliest known manufactured glass is from Egypt, c. 2000 B.C. Much was produced by the artisans of the Roman empire. Following the fall of Rome, however, there was very little glass manufactured in Europe until the 10th century, when stained glass appeared. As in ancient times, glassmakers fuse their materials at high temperatures in fireclay containers. Then the molten glass is boiled, skimmed, and cooled several degrees so that it can be ladled or poured into molds and pressed, or blown, or drawn. In its final shape, the glass is annealed to relieve stresses caused by manipulation, then slowly cooled.
glass fiber
A light but durable sculpture material used to reinforce resin, and hollow cast concrete. Thin filaments of glass are bonded into thin, flexible sheets called mats, strips of tape, or a fine, loosely stranded rope known as roving.
See Also: fiberglass
A term used in ceramics to describe a thin coating of minerals which produces a glassy transparent or colored coating on bisqueware. The glaze is fixed by baking the bisqueware in a kiln. This makes the surface smooth, shiny, and waterproof. Also, a glaze can be a thin, translucent or transparent coat over a painting, sometimes meant simply to protect the paint underneath, but more often to add a veil of coloration to an area of a picture.
Sparkle. Also, small pieces of light-reflecting decorative material. And, by extension, superficial attractiveness.
Surfaces which are lustrous, shiny, extra smooth. For example, satin, polished metals, and typical glass surfaces are glossy, whereas rougher surfaces, fabrics, etc., are more matte or dull. Sometimes used to refer to superficiality.
glue size
Size crystals or powder mixed with water form a gelatinous solution which forms the binder for gesso. Glue size added to plaster retards the drying process, giving the plaster a longer working time.
gold leaf
An extremely thin foil made of gold. It is available in various colors, each with a different proportion of copper or other metal in the alloy. Leaf made of less expensive materials to resemble gold is sometimes referred to as gold leaf. Something to which gold leaf has been applied may be described as gilt.
A creamy paste of cement mixed with water. Goo is the first coat applied to a mold in making a hollow cast concrete sculpture, and forms an even surface layer for the finished cast. Goo is also a brand name for a certain hand cleaning product.
A heavy, opaque watercolor paint, sometimes called body color, producing a less wet-appearing and more strongly colored picture than ordinary watercolor. Also, any painting produced with gouache. (pr. gwahsh)
A beveled chisel with a rounded, trough-like cutting edge, generally for carving wood. There are numerous types of gouges, including a V-tool for engraving the surface of wood. Many gouges are designed to be pushed by hand rather than by the hit of a mallet. To gouge is to make a scooping or digging action, as with such a chisel.
gradated wash
A wash that is light or thin in an area where little color has been applied, and gradually becomes darker or heavier into another area, where more color has been applied. A painting technique typically used with watercolors and inks, but possible with any thinned pigments.
See Also: gradation
A gradual, smooth, step-by-step change from dark to light values or from large to small shapes, or rough to smooth textures, or one color to another.
A drawing or an inscription made on a wall or other surface, usually so as to be seen by the public. Generally regarded as vandalism-- defacing public or private property-- and illegal; it may also be regarded as a form of art.
Example: Jean-Michel Basquiat's Zydeco, 1984
A method in which a line is produced by scratching through one pigmented surface to reveal another.
A unit of weight measurement equal to 0.001 kilogram. To convert grams into ounces (US), multiply them by 0.03527. Abbreviated g.
See Also: kilogram
A hard, coarse-grained igneous rock largely consisting of mica, and quartz. It has been used for sculpture, monuments, and architecture by several civilizations. The name granite is sometimes used loosely to include related igneous rocks such as granodiorite.
A material which is rough and grainy. Or, to make a material rough and grainy. (pr. gran"yeh-layt')
A diagram that exhibits a relationship, often functional, between two sets of numbers as a set of points having coordinates determined by the relationship. Also called plot. Pictorial types of graphs include the pie chart and the bar graph, often used to express the relationships between quantities, volumes, degrees, etc.
graphic arts (or graphic design)
Visual arts that are linear in character, such as drawing and engraving. Also, art involving printing and printmaking, much of it for commercial purposes-- for such things as packaging, advertisements, signage, books and magazines.
The arts which include illustrations, diagrams, or designs which are used for printed or commercial materials. This art emerged in the late 19th century with the development of advertising. Pop artists used the power of strong, graphic images in their paintings.
Example: Andy Warhol's Soup Can, 1961-2
A tool used in engraving metal, wood, or stone. A knob-like wooden handle which holds a metal shaft having a sharp beveled point with one size of several possible shapes, either flat, round, multiple, or elliptical. It is generally designed to be pushed by the hand, although there is an electrical tool often called a graver, which has a rotating tip. Another name for graver is burin. Graver may also refer to the technique or style of an engraver's work.
French for engraving. There are several types of engraving, including copper-plate and wood-engraving, rotogravure and photogravure. In English, gravure has been used broadly to cover any or all of these several types. In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, prints have been referred to as "art gravures" in order to distinguish them as art prints, rather than as merely commercial-grade prints. The line drawn between the two is a relatively subjective one. Seeing this term ON a print should raise suspicion that it is part of a huge edition, and/or for a relatively mass audience.
gray scale
The range of neutral values, or shades of gray in an image. The gray scales of scanners and terminals are determined by the number of grays, or steps between black and white, that they can recognize and reproduce.
Generally refers to unfired pottery, although sometimes the term is used to specify Chinese stoneware with a high-fired green glaze.
See Also: bone dry, leather-hard
A framework or pattern of crisscrossed or parallel lines. When crisscrossed, lines are usually horizontal and vertical; and when lines are diagonal, they are usually at right angles to each other. Typically graph paper is a grid of lines. Things which are often gridded: tiles, tessellations, wire screens, chess boards, maps, charts, calendars, and modern street plans.
To crush, pulverize, or reduce to powder by friction, especially by rubbing between two hard surfaces. Or, to shape or refine with friction. [For grinding to occur, bumping is required.]
See Also: abrasive
A style of monochromatic painting in shades of gray, used especially for the representation of relief sculpture, or to simulate one. Achromatic painting. May refer to a gray underpainting, laid for subsequent color glazing. Also, a kind of paint which can be fired onto glass. (pr. greez-eye', or griz-eye')
Example: The Vices and Virtues of Giotto's fresco cycle at the Cappella dei Scrovegni, Padova, Italy, c. 1305
Clay which has been fired and ground into fine granules, used as an ingredient in a clay body or as a base on which clay is worked or fired which allows the form to contract freely as it dries. It may also be used for molds and cores and for objects cast and modeled. When added to clay it raises its firing temperature and makes it more stable, but it can also alter its appearance. Sometimes sand is used as a substitute.
Ornamental images intended for architecture. These Ancient Roman motifs were discovered in underground ruins, or grottos. Often they depict animals, monsters, and figures.
Example: Lukas Kilian's Neus Gradesco Buchlein, 1607
A surface to which paint is applied or the material used to create that surface. A painting's ground is usually specially prepared on its support. Traditionally, for oil paint on canvas use a ground of oil and white pigment and on wood surfaces either an oil ground or gesso. Within a picture, ground may refer to a surrounding or background area. Also, in etching, it's an acid-resistant compound through which a design is drawn.
Example: Sam Francis often painted on ungrounded canvas.
A paste cement or mortar used for filling and sealing gaps-- cracks, crevices and joints-- especially between tiles.
A group of artists, craftsmen, and tradesmen from the medieval period. The guilds were structured with layers of apprentices, journeymen, and masters.
Example: The competition for the doors of the Florentine baptistery was supported by the wool finisher's guild.
gum arabic (or gum acacia)
Hardened sap secreted by acacia trees, used as a binder for water-soluble pigments. Water-soluble gums, used as adhesive in glaze or colors.
Calcium sulfate dihydrate, found in a variety of forms as natural deposits (such as alabaster), which when heated and deprived of its moisture forms the substance known as plaster of Paris. Gypsum rates an index of 2 on Mohs Scale of Hardness. (pr. jip'sum)

Mr. Hubbard's first description of Dianetics. Originally circulated in manuscript form, it was soon copied and passed from hand to hand. Ensuing word of mouth created such demand for more information, he concluded the only way to answer the inquiries was with a book. That book was Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health, now the all-time self-help bestseller. Find out what started it all. For here is the bedrock foundation of Dianetic discoveries: the Original Axioms, the Dynamic Principle of Existence, the Anatomy of the Analytical and Reactive Mind, the Dynamics, the Tone Scale, the Auditor's Code and the first description of a Clear. Even more than that, here are the primary laws describing how and why auditing works. It's only here in Dianetics: The Original Thesis.

Here is Mr. Hubbard's first description of Dianetics. Originally circulated in manuscript form to a few friends, it was soon copied and passed hand-to-hand until it literally circled the globe. But the resultant word of mouth only fueled the fire. With thousands of letters requesting more information, he concluded the only way to answer all inquiries was with a book. That book was Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health, now the all-time bestseller on the mind. Find out what started it all. For here are the bedrock discoveries and equations of Dianetics, including:
- The Primary Axioms of Dianetics—axioms upon which the entire subject is built
- The discovery of the Dynamic Principle of Existence that drives all life forms—SURVIVE!
- The Four Dynamics by which life is compartmented and which determine one's survival
- The discovery and anatomy of the Reactive Mind
- Engrams, the single source of all irrational behavior
- The powerful command in every engram which prevented their discovery and handling before Dianetics
- The Analytical Mind, its function and operation
- The first description of the state of Clear, its attributes and potentials
- And, most important, the Laws of Returning—containing the explanation of both how and why auditing works
Here, then, are the fundamental breakthroughs Mr. Hubbard used to make the first Clears—breakthroughs which made possible the development of technology for use by every individual to begin the clearing of a planet, breakthroughs only contained in Dianetics: The Original Thesis.

And here's some fuel for thought: this wasn't a special order. It was just out in the display case, on the off chance someone was having a nuclear power plant themed occasion worth celebrating.
Thanks to Clare M. for the rad wreckporting.
When professional cakes go horribly, hilariously wrong.
What if they're... elephant trunks? Like... a mom and baby--
wait. then they would be creepy disembodied elephant trunks. on cake.
I think it resembles two bottles of chocolate milk in love.
Common misconception: Those are simply cooling towers. They could be attached to any form of power generation, not just nuclear.
Shouldn't the hearts be giant and mutated? That would make the cake so much cooler! IMHO
Wow and I thought they were supposed to be volcanoes erupting hearts...seismologists in love? It's a pretty enough cake but definitely a bizarre theme...
File this under Most Brilliant Post titles Ever!
This cake doesn't even make sense, certainly they weren't actually going to nuclear reactors, but what? What else could they of been trying for? It's like telling me I can't have a lighter on the plane but allowing me to bring matches. My head hurts now.
wv: ingult
I was thinking they were beakers and it was some kind of chemistry / love thing.
Its a loooove factory! =p
The first thing I thought of was nuclear reactors, also.
I live 9 3/4 miles from Indian Point power plant in NY. I can't imagine a better way to celebrate our impending doom when the emergency sirens go off.
As we sit on the Taconic Parkway with the other 3 million evacuees, we'll have something to do: Pass around the cake!
Sadly, those who live a quarter mile down the road, won't get evacuated-No cake for them.
Clearly, this is two sea anemones (arms retracted) spawning.
WV--stagnati A Mafia family that hasn't come up with any new crime ventures lately, OR the gelato flavor you *really* don't want!
Our nearby coal-burning plant has cooling towers like a nuke plant. But no nukes.
So maybe it's for power plant workers? Like Homer?
Unless those are clam necks on the cakes, it isn't just love for nuclear power there; it's a meltdown, or at least a leak.
Stuff isn't supposed to be coming out of the top of those cooling towers.
mesas and smoke signals?
...actually, this is kind of cool. I'd buy/eat this.
It's a volcano of love.
Could also be traditional pottery kilns or as other wreckporter has said ordinary power station,
Still a weird choice for cake!
I'm in the "what is it really" camp. Loving the pun though. You (nu)clear on that? ;)
WTF was that SUPPOSED to be??? D:
it's The Power of Love!
Now Huey Lewis will be in my head the rest of the day.
Maybe they're smokestacks? To celebrate the ever-popular "I <3 Global Warming and Pollution!" Week. I think this was their inspiration; http://blogs.reuters.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/rtr1kqtc.jpg
Looks like the baker was fission for compliments. Why don't we just salute (C)hernobyl effort.
WV: eversa -- This is the most random cake I eversa.
Volcanos spewing lava (lova) hearts?
Maybe swollen smokestacks from an ocean liner (Love Boat)?
Maybe it's pottery… Ghost comes to mind. :-)
We're going to need a bigger cake.
This cake reminded me of something I'd seen once... had to do some hunting but I found it:
I see oddly-shaped volcanos erupting with love. Wait...that came out wrong. 0_O
Sharyn, I salute you!
WV: tumrquet- a device used to quell bleeding of the abdomen.
Love potions, perhaps???
So cute. I wonder if its yellow cake.
maybe there's a plant nearby and coworkers tend to fall in love there? maybe it's supposed to be bottlenecks for people who like to drink?
Thanks, Christina. Now _I_ have Huey Lewey in my head all day!
This cake is a reproduction of a petroglyph allegedly found inside an Anasazi dwelling. The two items pictured are unfinished clay pots (note the typical coiling not yet smoothed out), hastily prepared as the tribe was getting ready to disappear. The hearts are not emanating from the pots, but are falling into the pots – symbolizing the hearts and souls of the tribe members being gathered within their culture, to be kept safe for all time. The larger vessel stands for the adults and the smaller, the children. You'll note that there are more child hearts than adult ones, for, as is typical in many societies, the children represent the hope for the future. While the sky is blue (blue skies, nothing but blue skies….), a clear indication of the optimism that tribe had lived under for so long, the two white spots near the left of the adult pot may signify the "hole in the future" (see Richie Havens song of same name), a foreboding sign, and, ultimately the cause for the symbolic gathering of the tribe and its civilization. Others have speculated that the white spots represent the approaching "white man", and the picture denotes the tribe's attempt to save its culture from that influence. The cake itself (note the white coils, also unfinished) repeats the theme of the unfinished pots. Where did this cake go? That, too, remains a mystery.
wv-moortati: what you need when you don't have enough tati...
@Sharyn: love the puns!
Anon @ 11:29,
Awesome. Just awesome. I can't believe I didn't think of it.
Well, it's a pretty cake, all things considered. Maybe they're supposed to be fancy coffee mugs or something.... haha
Love Canal celebration...
Wow, Mel, you have a lot of time on your hands. Good thing, too. ;)
Can you say Love Canal?
I don't suppose the submitter gave you a location? If it's from West Virginia, it would sort of make sense. Sort of.
I can totally see someone living by Dupont or Carbide doing a cake like this. I've got a friend whose dad works there, she'd love this as a fathers day cake! Its like baby and daddy cooling towers.
But this is perfect for The Simpsons themed party I'm throwing! D'oh!
I vote that they're actually Bottle kilns. Was this cake sighted in the North Staffordshire (Potteries) region?
Dear Mel,
I always learn so much from you. Would you be willing to teach my daughter's world history class. Her teacher knows nothing. NOTHING!
And while I'm at it: Yellow Cake! Hysterical.
Seconding the beaker theory. There's a game called Rhythm Heaven where scientists make love (potions) in beakers in a lab, complete with wafting hearts.
...at least, I'm choosing to believe those are beakers.
It's a Tube Worm Valentine. Because coelenterates need love, too.
I was thinking they were wasp nests but with hearts instead of wasps coming out of them. But, isn't the opening usually on the bottom or in the middle of the nest?
Still doesn't make any sense or make me see the need for a cake with that on top.
wv "andefe" Of course she got the cake wrong. Our decorator is blind andefe.
I'd buy it, if only for the conversation at the party!
are those hearts coming out of it??? I am sooo confused!!!
wv: I wonder if the cake tastes 'mente'
Clearly, they're the tops of coke bottles. Diet Coke is doing a program called "Heart Truth" that raises awareness for women's heart health. See: http://www.dietcoke.com/hearttruth/the_program.jsp
Not the best rendering of it, but copyright issues may have prevented the baker from putting the actual Diet Coke logo.
I would eat the hell out of that cake. The nuclear war, hell out of it.
I love this thing. I wish more bakers were this creative.
Thought you might like this cake-related news story.
I think this is actually a really cool cake, and if I saw it in the store I would buy it! I'm not sure why they made it though. There probably aren't many celebrations that involve cooling towers of love.
That is one sweet love factory!
Reminds me of Celestina Warbeck's A Cauldron Full of Hot, Strong Love, except nuclear style.
An homage to CW! It's the "I *HEART* Big Piles O'Poo" cake! Awwww! Such dedicated fans out there, even in the wrecky industry!
wv: mockin
Don't be a mockin if the cake's a little shockin!
I am also hearing Huey Lewis in my head, but envision him singing in the middle of a pig farm in China where they use the poop as power. Go poo power!
It looks like a less explodey, less exciting, more floaty version of this.
Hm. The mind boggles.
Just wondering if you saw the Hell's Kitchen Cake Wreck? If not, you can watch it on HULU, in the current season it is the episode where 12 chefs compete--the cake was atrocious!
It's a well-done, if bizarre cake. Perhaps someone ordered it and changed their mind?
I like all the guesses, tales and puns! Very entertaining.
The only thing I can think of is perhaps the nuclear power industry is celebrating itself? And the hearts symbolize that air above the plants is clean, unlike coal plants.
BTW @Tina, it's the butane in the lighter that's the problem.
Mount Wanna-hawk-a-loogie (Finding Nemo)?
Maybe it's in Springfield and it's Mr. Burns' birthday?
Anonymous said...
"So cute. I wonder if its yellow cake."
Now THAT is funny!!!
Strange strange strange design to NOT be a special order.
wv: retsunn. That stuff that they always said was in "Certs".
Champagne bottles with bubbles rising from the top? Brown, stripey champagne bottles? With really big bubbles? Maybe?
Bee hives, perchance?
Maybe it wasn't finished?
Yep, my immediate thought was "3 Mile Island" before I even read the description.
I think the baker just heard the grade school joke: "What did the boy volcano say to the girl volcano?"
"I lava you!"
This looks like a Hello Kitty version of the Japan nuclear disaster... which would be such a japanese thing to do.
I initially saw two volcanoes spewing hearts... but you're right, it does look more like a pair of cooling towers or whatever. I'd still eat it. :-)
They look like vases to me. But apparently I'm the only one who sees that....
Ha, Mel, you said it so much better than I could. I was just going to call them Chiminea of Doom
wv: ronne. Ronne for your lives -- it's the Chiminea of Doom!
OK, first, Mel and the anonymous "yellow cake" suggestion win the thread as of this moment.
Second, I think it's cute! I grew up near Ft. Calhoun in Nebraska and then lived near a major nuclear weapons research center, and still have a relative who works with medical radiation stuff. I'd buy the cake in a heartbeat!
This is the best variety of comments & descriptions ever - clam necks, sea anemones, chocolate milk bottles, kilns... You all rock. You know you do.
@mel - clearly, you are a graduate student ;-)
Anon @ 11:29 - +5 nerd-points to you!
@Slartibarfast42 - love, love, love
I'm thinking that they are deep ocean hydrothermal vents. Of love!
Alyssa said:
'Clearly, they're the tops of coke bottles. Diet Coke is doing a program called "Heart Truth" that raises awareness for women's heart health.'
Good answer! Good answer! Either that or beehives. I live near a newcleyar cooling tower and it looks nothing like that!
WV: credgew----I'm incredgewlous at some of these answers, lol! But LOVE the yellow cake comment, right on. :)
I think April Lewie had the best explanation- it's a love factory!
Also, Sharyn's comment wins today :D
Finally, I feel lame, but I don't get the "is it yellow cake" joke :/ Can someone explain it pleeease?
I read all the comments hoping for some light to be shed upon this cake, but to no avail. So I shall offer my 2 cents.
Geoducks in love.
Hey, it could be!
I think they started out to do one thing and changed their minds halfway through, so now we don't know what they were supposed to be making.
Also, what would be so special here about "yellow cake"?
Hey all,
Yellowcake uranium is used in the preparation of nuclear fuel rods.
It also has something to do with bad guys.
Sad to say that would be something my dad would pick out for their anniversary, he's special like that. And he's worked at the nuclear plants most of my life.
hah, "rad" reporting. I see what you did there :D
Maybe it is just smoke signals from two mesas. There can be love in the Wild, Wild West.
It's bizarre, but neatly executed and actually rather pretty
Two geoducks, spawning?
Mel, that is the best interpretation of a cake I've ever read--awesome!
Why was the blonde bad at archaeology? She didn't know a sipapu from a hole in the ground.
I also thought cooling towers.
But could the hearts be going INTO the tops? We're sending love to Fukushima? (and Chernobyl, Three Mile Island, etc., etc.) As in, memorial/thank you cake for the valiant souls who worked hard to contain the mess?
The other ideas are great, and @Mel, you either have way too much time on your hands, or you have done in-depth study others never will. I'm hoping for the latter. ;)
Sharyn said...
Looks like the baker was fission for compliments. Why don't we just salute (C)hernobyl effort.
BRAVO!!! (or is that BRAVA??)
Mel, I love you but in a non-stalker, freakazoid kind of way.
TY to everyone who got here before me and asked about yellow cake since I didn't get it, either. :)
I thought tube worms, if anyone's interested and glad someone else did, too. Either that or upside down poo fezes. Fezes are cool.
-Barbara Anne
OK, I followed Alyssa's link and went to the Diet Coke web site and found nothing that resembles the design on this cake. Did anyone else find what she was referring to? I don't think the cake has anything to do with the Diet Coke promotion.
I think it's pretty cute, actually.
In my dad's hometown in Pennsylvania they have a nuclear plant with two smoke stacks just like this. It's sorta like their local landmark. I've even seen postcards featuring the stacks sold in town. Maybe that's what they are trying to do? I would be interested to find out where this was taken.
@MsMargaret - I didn't say that's what they were for certain, that's just what I thought of first when I saw the cake. I provided that link merely to illustrate the heart+Coke bottle connection. It makes more sense than hearts coming out of cooling towers, that's for dang sure.
I think it's Coke... "open happiness" It's a summer theme cake. Obviously.
This cake reminds me of a music video called, "God is not a white man" by Gungor. There is a factory and little paper cut-out hearts, some guns that turn into kittens and ice cream cones. My 5 year old makes me ( gives me an excuse to) watch it repeatedly. ;)
Of course it's nuclear - look at how the trim around the top of the cake mutates.
Justin Credible
Barbara Anne,
If you want to start a "Mel's Non-Stalker Freakazoid Fan Club" I'll join! Our logo could be a stalk of celery under one of those universal "NO" symbols.
Perhaps they were thinking of this?
I think it looks kinda cute lol. To me it looks like two happy volcanoes but what do I know? Love the cute little hearts. A rather nice wreck in my opinion.
We could actually use that at hubby's office. Mind you, Nuke plants are part of the job.
A work inspired cake. Well, work for my husband's office anyway.
@Sharyn and Barbara Anne: You're both funny, and too kind...thanks...
This is what happens when Cupid crashes into Three Mile Island.......
The sad part is that the border on the top of the cake is actually nicely done.
If you turn it upside down it becomes very obvious.....two elephants having nosebleeds.
Maybe it represents Pele, the Hawiian goddess of fire and passion. She had a lot of lovers and that could be the explanation for the hearts coming out of a possible volcano. Pele lived in a volcano.
They are two volcanos...what they left off was the caption, "What did the boy volcano say to the girl volcano? "I LAVA You" :)

A Cake Wreck is any cake that is unintentionally sad, silly, creepy, inappropriate - you name it. A Wreck is not necessarily a poorly-made cake; it's simply one I find funny, for any of a number of reasons. Anyone who has ever smeared frosting on a baked good has made a Wreck at one time or another, so I'm not here to vilify decorators: Cake Wrecks is just about finding the funny in unexpected, sugar-filled places.
Now, don't you have a photo you want to send me? ;)
We don't have any copies of Cake Wrecks for sale here, autographed or otherwise. We decided the shipping and handling costs would be too high to make it worth your while. So instead, buy your copies locally or online and then order personalized bookplates: it's cheaper, easier, and I think even looks a bit nicer.
Payments must be made through Paypal, which accepts all major credit cards. Sorry, but that means no checks or MOs or barter-based chickens.
We ship everything first class USPS, and will do our best to have your package in the mail within 2 days of your order.

Beans and Rice
Red beans and rice is a traditional dish of Louisiana Creole cuisine, (not originally of Cajun cuisine) traditionally made on Mondays with Camellia Red Kidney Beans, vegetables (onion and celery), spices (thyme, cayenne pepper, and bay leaf) and pork bones as left over from Sunday dinner, cooked together slowly in a pot and served over popcorn rice. It is an old custom from the time when ham was a Sunday meal and Monday was washday. Red beans and rice is one of the few New Orleans style dishes to be commonly cooked both in peoples homes and in restaurants. Many neighborhood restaurants continue to offer it as a Monday lunch special, usually with a side order of either smoked sausage or a pork chop. Red Beans remains a staple for large gatherings such as Super Bowl and Mardi Gras parties.
