The U.S. Commerce Department's Census Bureau today released basic demographic data for up to 249 race and ethnic groups down to the census tract level in Idaho.
Summary File 2 (SF2) consists of 36 population and 11 housing tables. Each shows data for the total population in a particular geographic area, such as counties, county subdivisions, places, census tracts, state parts of American Indian and Alaska Native areas, tribal subdivisions, metropolitan areas and Hawaiian home lands.
Each table is iterated for as many as 132 race groups (e.g., Taiwanese, Melanesian), 78 American Indian and Alaska Native tribal categories (e.g., Apache alone, Choctaw alone) and 39 Hispanic or Latino groups (e.g., Ecuadorian, Guatemalan). (Please note that the listed examples may not be shown for all states.)
Population subjects covered include age, sex, household relationship and household type. The data for occupied housing units include tenure (whether the unit is owner- or renter-occupied), household size and age of householder. SF2 is a compilation of 100 percent data taken from the questions asked of all people and about every housing unit as of April 1, 2000.
Data will be released on a flow basis by state, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. A weekly release schedule may be viewed on the Census Bureau's Web site at <http://www.census.gov/Press-Release/www/2001/sumfile2.html>.

This is the first of three interviews FRSO/OSCL will be posting this month with women who have played an important part in the eruption of struggle initially triggered by the people of Ferguson, Missouri in response to the murder of Michael Brown. These interviews highlight the absolutely crucial contributions of thousands of sisters, from veteran fighters to first-time protestors, in this burgeoning movement. The interviews are being conducted in cooperation with folks from Rødt, the organ of Red, the Norwegian left socialist party.
Jamala Rogers is well known to readers of this site. As a lifelong revolutionary, a leading member of the Organization for Black Struggle and Freedom Road Socialist Organization, and being rooted in the St. Louis community, she has been involved with the movement for justice for Mike Brown since the very first day.
FRSO: What's going on in Ferguson now?
Jamala Rogers: A number of things are going on, simultaneously. There was a police shooting yesterday. [In February, when this interview was conducted. ] We're still trying to get the information on that, but apparently this young man had already been shot by police in 2009. The State House is in session and there are hearings. In St. Louis, a Civilian Oversight Board was introduced—this is the second time that we've introduced it. Last week, the Public Safety Committee held a public meeting for people to come and testify. The room was filled with police officers. And ultimately there got to be a shouting match with the business manager of the police union, Jeff Roorda, who is an ex-cop and a Missouri State Representative. http://www.cnn.com/2015/01/28/us/st-louis-police-citizen-ferguson-outburst/ And all hell broke lose. He ended up grabbing hold of a woman and she's filing assault charges. So there's never a dull moment around here. Continue readingDownload this piece as a PDF

Why, from the natural selection point of view, do only two sexes exist for animals?
To get a non-circular answer to why humans and other mammals have only two sexes, it's helpful to take a look at our evolutionary history. While mammals possess several adaptations to a terrestrial life cycle, including internal fertilization and gestation, which require substantial anatomic specialization between males and females, these are all secondary features that evolved long after our aquatic ancestors had acquired two distinct sexes.
Indeed, if we look at animals like fish, which reproduce via external fertilization, it's not at all obvious why they might not have more than two sexes. After all, for many aquatic animals, mating involves little more than the female and the male releasing their respective gametes into the water, where they meet and fuse to a form new zygote, which can then divide and grow into a new adult. Seen that way, there seems to be no reason why there could not be more than two "mating types", as in many fungi, such that gametes of any two distinct types could fuse into zygote.
The answer lies in the fact that the male and female gametes aren't actually that similar: the female gametes, or eggs, are typically large cells that contain all the nutrients necessary for the new zygote to develop into a viable individual, whereas the male gametes, or sperm, are tiny and produced in huge numbers. This asymmetry is known as anisogamy, and modeling its origin has been an important topic in the theoretical study of evolution.
Without going into details on the evolution of anisogamy, once it exists, it clearly forces the mating types to also split into two groups: there's no advantage in two microgametes (sperm) fusing, since the resulting zygote would lack the nutrients it needs to be viable, whereas the fusion of two macrogametes (eggs) would simply be inefficient — eggs, being large, are comparatively rare and expensive, and wasting two of them to produce only one offspring would be suboptimal even if the resulting zygote was viable. Nor is there really room in such a scheme for gametes of intermediate size: they'd be too small to fuse into a viable zygote with sperm, but too large to be produced in sufficient amounts to be effective in fertilizing eggs.
Of course, there's nothing that would stop a single adult from producing both micro- and macrogametes, but such an adult would not really be a third sex — it would just be male and female at the same time, a mating strategy known as (simultaneous) hermaphroditism, which indeed occurs relatively often in nature.
So, if pretty much all animals are anisogamous, why do fungi remain isogamous (and often have multiple mating types), then? Well, one explanation is that the main drivers for the evolution of anisogamy — sperm competition and transportation risk — don't really apply to fungi, which mate when two sessile haploid mycelia grow and come into contact with each other. Since the gametes are not motile, there's no advantage for either/any sex to produce more of them (at the cost of smaller size) in order to increase the chance of successful mating. Thus, isogamous mating works fine for the lifestyle of fungi, and having multiple mating types is then a useful adaptation to make successful mating between neighboring mycelia more likely.
@emanuele you seem to be asking why there are only 2 sexes for animals, in contrast to fungi which can have many sexes or maybe bacteria which have mobile sex - the ability to donate genetic information can be acquired or lost.
Some animals - worms and fish for instance are hemaphrodites - they can accept sperm or donate them to produce offspring. Fungi are even simpler - the mating is by haploid fusion on the cellular level, since they have single celled life cycles. The mating type allows mating with any cell that is not of the same mating type. Its just a matter of how much genome space you want to dedicate to mating and there can be 2 mating types of 10,000 mating types - the only rule is that you can't mate with your own mating type. Its a simple mechanism to restrict mating with yourself - probably to encourage genetic diversity.
Physiologically, for single celled animals and simple egg layers like fish and worms, you can see why sexual roles might not need to be specialized; its a matter of which gamete you will deposit. If the egg is no more than an especially fat cell, becoming male is not necessarily a big change. But when eggs are more complicated structures or live birth becomes an adaptation, the expense of being the gamete donor (male) or recipient (female) becomes a significant commitment and changing roles is not so easy to do in an evolutionary system.
Ultimately, Unlike worms or snakes, committed females are specialized such that turning into a male, with the requisite development of a womb, changes in bone structure, etc is such an elaborate phenomenon that we don't observe it.

(SportsNetwork.com) - Sean Monahan seems to have this NHL thing down already.
The Calgary rookie defenseman will make his home debut on Sunday night as the Flames begin a three-game stay at Scotiabank Saddledome versus the Vancouver Canucks.
Taken sixth overall by the Flames in the 2013 draft, Monahan picked up an assist in his first NHL game on Thursday, a 5-4 shootout loss in Washington. He then scored 2:27 into Friday night's 4-3 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets for his first career tally.
"It's a relief to get it in my second game. It's pretty awesome," said Monahan. "Everything is going so quickly right now. I'm taking everything one day at a time and on the ice one shift at a time. I'm learning a lot and I feel like I'm getting better every day."
T.J. Galiardi also scored in the first period, while Jiri Hudler and Curtis Glencross put the Flames ahead for good by scoring 42 seconds apart in the third period.
Joey MacDonald stopped 29-of-32 shots in goal, while Galiardi added an assist in the triumph.
The Flames will celebrate their home opener against the Canucks, who have split their first two games of the season. They lost in San Jose on Thursday, but won their first home contest of the campaign on Saturday night with a 6-2 decision over Edmonton.
John Tortorella earned his first victory as Vancouver's head coach thanks to five straight goals from his offense. Brad Richardson scored shorthanded to begin the run, which also included goals by Dan Hamhuis, Jannik Hansen, Daniel Sedin and Ryan Kesler.
Hansen joined Daniel and Henrik Sedin on the top line with Alex Burrows expected to miss a few weeks of action due to a lower body injury suffered while blocking a shot in Thursday's loss.
"That's the way we want to play," Kesler said. "We let up that early goal, but we responded right away and kept coming and they cracked."
Jason Garrison added a short-handed empty-net goal and Roberto Luongo made 21 saves.
The Canucks won four of five versus the Flames a season ago, splitting two trips to Calgary. They have won 10 of the previous 14 encounters overall and six of their last nine in Calgary.

This conversation is closed.
Is world peace possible?
Is a global love and respect of humanity itself possible? What are the impediments (if any) to achieve world peace? What is your definition of global peace?
Is it simply the abstention from violence and infliction of pain, or is it something greater -- a cause to empower all human beings by way of love? I'd love to hear some thoughts on this since I know TED fosters love within its community! List your solutions to end whatever global issues there may be, and don't worry about specifics!
Closing Statement from Max de Hoyos
I've considered this point for quite some time and have come to the conclusion that there is no truth but your own. What you focus on, you will feel and manifest--not only in your life, but the lives of others as well. I highly suggest we all look at the Tony Robbins video on why we do what we do, I feel like that has allowed me to shift my beliefs on what evil is and what the best way to combat it is.
Empowering beliefs are the way to create world peace. We must make it so that loving actions are the way which we receive pleasure, and causing pain to others creates pain in ourselves. We don't need to look anywhere to find these solutions--they are deeply rooted within our nature. Giving feels good, causing pain doesn't -- the reason anything to the contrary of this statement exists is because people overlook the effects of their actions, because they have learned to do so.
In closing, I'm grateful we had such intelligent people comment on this conversation, and I'm proud to be a member of this community! Much love to all.
Gail .
Nov 20 2012: Yes, I think that world peace is possible, and something very close to world peace will emerge in my lifetime. The movement is already afloat, but it is still a minority.

Those who live in a fear-based world live in a violence-based world. They also live in a scarcity-based world. A scarcity worldview will not produce peace, whereas an abundance worldview enables it.
What is an abundance worldview? There are many around the globe who have discovered that we are POWERFUL creatures. We have learned how to manifest our desires directly into our realities. This includes peace. When I am at peace, I know that I am safe. I do not fear hunger either, nor thirst, nor poverty.
We create our realities according to our beliefs. This makes us god-like creatures.
If you believe that you are powerless and vulnerable, you will create realities that reflect that belief. What you focus on becomes. If you believe that you are powerful and invulnerable to others, you will create realities that reflect that belief. Reality is a reflection of beliefs, not a concrete truth.
I grew up reading about Aladin's Lamp, where wishes were granted. I have discovered that the wishes are not limited. Whatever I desire, I can make manifest by following a few simple rules. But if I call my power "evil", or if I do not know that I am a powerful creature, I will manifest that which I don't want.
I believe that when people like me reach a tipping point, and more and more discover the joy of being creators and co-creators, that war will end, because those who know their own power are not victimized by it.
War creates war. War cannot create peace any more than a tree can give birth to a chicken.
People need to know WHAT humans are. Studies into the unified/quantum/morphic/energy field that appears to exist as the consciousness of which we are all a part are telling us some very exciting thing.
Can't get there 4 as long as religion & $$$ terrify the sheeple.
Nov 20 2012: TED Lover,
I agree that we create our own reality....what we focus on expands:>)
You write..."If you believe that you are powerless and vulnerable, you will create realities that reflect that belief. What you focus on becomes. If you believe that you are powerful and invulnerable to others, you will create realities that reflect that belief. Reality is a reflection of beliefs, not a concrete truth."
What happens when we perceive ourselves as both powerful AND vulnerable? I think/feel that you touched on this idea with your statement..."I believe that when people... discover the joy of being creators and co-creators, that war will end, because those who know their own power are not victimized by it."
Realizing that we are creators and co-creators feels like powerful vulnerability to me....yes?
Reminds me of a TED talk.....
http://www.ted.com/talks/brene_brown_on_vulnerability.htmlNov 20 2012: Hello Max,
I absolutely believe that world peace is possible, and I also know that the last time I checked, I do not have much influence with global political or religious leaders, so I can only create peace in the tiny part of the world that I occupy, and perhaps I can contribute peace and harmony with those I interact with on a daily basis. If we do not believe it is possible, that is the reality we create in, and for ourselves.
I agree with TED Lover (again!), that fear is an impediment to achieving world peace. Fear manifests as a sense of scarcity, which manifests into greed, which creates abuse and violence against others. We do indeed create our reality, and as individuals, it is up to us to decide how we live our lives in each and every moment. Anything is possible and it all starts with a dream...intention....in my humble opinion.Nov 20 2012: I believe that world peace is impossible; this is based on the simple facts of human nature and also the reality of our economic structure, both of which sadly support selfishness and greed, and in the end perpetuate inequality and disagreements which lead to an un-peaceful world.
Nov 20 2012: I agree with you Zman, that selfishness, greed, inequality and disagreements may support the idea of world peace being impossible.
Human nature, however, also offers respect, compassion, empathy, goodness and love. Do you think/feel that as thinking, feeling, intelligent, insightful humans, we may have choices regarding what aspects of "human nature" we choose?
Nov 20 2012: I think that "respect, compassion, empathy, goodness and love" are things that are applied to people when they feel they have an incentive to do it or when they can spare it; otherwise people don't necessarily give others any of the above. One of the purposes of government is to give people a reason to be good, and not harm or affect others negatively. Selfish behavior overcomes normal behavior, and all you need is a handful of selfish people to shift the balance.
Nov 20 2012: Zman, I think you are right, to a point but also somewhat negative. Over time this world has become a lot better than it was ages ago. Tolerance of others and protection of the individual is much more present. In many places we can now walk around at night, even as a woman. We can disagree with someone without being shot.
Just as we will never be perfect, I do not expect this world to ever be perfect.
I do believe we are here for a purpose and that purpose is not this world. This is the gym or seedbed of heaven and gyms will always smell :)
In this world, both heaven and hell are present or represented. It is that situation which gives us our freewill and thus choices.
I'd like to think there are people who make the right choices and become angels before they die. They have reached the stage of loving goodness for the sake of goodness, not for the sake of gain or prestige or anything else selfish.
The more 'Mother Teresa's there are, the better world this will be.Nov 20 2012: Zman,
I do not agree Zman that it is the purpose of government to give people a reason to be good. The government is elected by us, and are working for us. We have the ability to guide our government. I think/feel that it is important to have the qualities we speak of in ourselves, and I personally, do not depend on the government or anyone else to provide that for me. It is simply enjoyable to be respectful, compassionate and loving:>)
Maybe YOUR gym smells Adriaan....mine smells pretty good:>)Nov 20 2012: I think this comes down to a discussion of the existence of Evil. Why does evil exist, and what is evil in the first place? I believe evil people will always exist, so whirled peas will not be possible.Nov 20 2012: We can do a much better job.Nov 20 2012: IMO:
As a first goal, I would define global peace as the global absence of organized violence. When we reach that point, we will have a great achievement to celebrate. Reaching that goal will require huge advances in defining and achieving justice. Developing consensus on justice, and practical processes for reaching just outcomes, is the bulk of the work.

Nov 20 2012: Yes.

The Kane Borough Council is expected to act Feb. 1 on what has been termed "a bare-bones' budget for 2012.
The "revised" proposed budget calls for a 1.5-mill increase in the property tax rate in Kane.
This increase would generate about $118,000 more in additional tax revenue for the borough.
The additional funds reportedly are needed to balance the budget due to rising costs for operating the borough government.
Council earlier this month voted 5-1 on a "revised" budget that trims the proposed tax increase from 3 mills to 1.5 mills. The revision is due to new information from the McKean County Department of Assessment on property valuations in Kane.
Council President Howard Kane joined with Councilwomen Janet Bard and Holly Harris and Councilmen Dennis Drost and Bill Tunall to support the "revised" tentative budget, which is now on public display at the borough building.
Councilman John Gentilman cast the lone negative vote against the "revised" budget. He has spoken out against any tax increase.
Lori Feldbauer, borough office manager, helped draft the "revised" budget with council's Finance Committee headed by Bard.
"I'd call it a 'bare-bones' budget," Feldbauer said Monday. "There is no place else to cut. I believe we've been real conscious about spending money."
Kane said he understands that many borough residents are living on "fixed incomes" and do not want to see a tax increase.
"I'm on a fixed income, too," he said Monday. "But, if we want services, we have to pay for them."
Under the proposed 1.5-mill tax increase, property owners with a home assessed at $50,000 would pay an additional $75 in borough taxes this year.

Let's Be Trendy!
Posted 01 February 2013 - 05:05 PM
I am tired of gluten free being talked about as if it is just a choice. So many tv shows, talk shows, books, diet plans, etc all talk about avoiding gluten as a choice for weight loss or just to treat some bazillion symptoms you may be suffering from. Yes, it has led to more products being available which is great but it really causes negative repercussions for someone like me who actually HAS to avoid even the smallest crumb of gluten and will get seriously ill if I don't. Because when I say I have to eat gluten free I inevitably always get someone saying, "Oh yeah I (or my husband, my friend, my dog) have to eat gluten free but sometimes I just have a regular pizza because the gluten free one tastes bad." Or if I go to a restaurant and spend 10 minutes ordering my meal to make sure they understand exactly how careful they need to be when preparing my food they look at me as if I am overreacting and that I'm just one of those "trendy" dieters. I understand people can do whatever they want and go gluten-free and maybe it helps their health and that's great but when the idea is out there that you can just take a day off or just eat some gluten once in awhile it is seriously dangerous to those of us who have celiac and who react to microscopic amounts of gluten. People just aren't going to take us as seriously, or take as much care in preparing our food as they should, when they know multiple people that say they are also gluten-free but they ate a piece of birthday cake at a party and they were totally fine.
Okay rant over.

When I eat at a restaurant, it's my choice. I don't put the weight of my health on the server, kitchen or management. They don't know the level of my awareness, nor would I expect them to be. If I get ill, I accept the responsibility.
Eight years ago, when I began my gluten free journey...there was a vast nothingness of gluten free product, or awareness. To say "we've come a long way baby" is an understatement!!!!!
I'm rather pleased.

I went gluten free about 3 and a half weeks ago. I did it because I have not felt well for a very long time and have undergone almost every test there is, but no findings. I did not do the test, because I did not know you could not do it after going gluten free. I may get brave one day and start eating gluten again to have the test done. I am however thinking about converting my entire family to an either gluten light or gluten free diet as after reading the book "Wheat Belly" I have learned a lot about the dangers of wheat in particular and what it can do to those who do not have celiac. Not trying to be trendy, just trying to be healthy. I am so sorry that you have to deal with all the of hassles and hope that as time goes on and awareness spreads, things may get easier.
You can still do the test, and there is even a chance of it still being positive; there is just less of a chance of it being accurate than there would be if you were still eating gluten.

You know, I am finally regretting that I gave up tv altogether nearly two years ago and avoided talk shows for many years before. Perhaps if I had watched I would have become better informed about this issue... Who knew I could still become part of a 'trend'? LOL

At the same time, the level of awareness is so much better than it was even couple years ago. I can usually say "gluten-free" and they have some idea what I'm talking about, though even then at restaurants I have to be very diligent to make sure they follow through with requests (I said no bread, not bread on the side, or stuck in my curry, thank you. And no, couscous is NOT gluten-free...)
However, Wheat Belly's popularity might be getting out of control. As much as not eating wheat or gluten might help all kinds of non-celiacs, throwing yourself into a limited diet, or changing so much without a good reason can also be dangerous. Your gut might go, hey, that bread was treating me just fine. What are you doing throwing all this new stuff at me all of a sudden.
Trying out the gluten-free diet is always worth a shot, but if people don't feel any difference in a couple weeks, then likely the best thing is to just keep eating healthy, whole foods and grains.
For us, this is not a fad. It's a life-long prescription.

Erhm... kind of a short timeframe, no?
Trying out the gluten-free diet is always worth a shot, but if people don't feel any difference in a couple weeks, then likely the best thing is to just keep eating healthy, whole foods and grains.
The ideal thing is for them to communicate with their doctors... if they have health insurance, access to doctors, and can afford to do so. if not... I do agree the fad diet aspect is obnoxious, but it's hard to blame people for wanting to feel better.

Agreed! I always speak up to the server and make sure we're on the same page but in the end it's on me. I made the conscious decision to eat out, so I live and learn. I have a favorite, dependable spot in my hometown, the chef is a friend and he knows his stuff! I wish everyone had a favorite like that, and although its trendy, more and more gluten-free spots are coming out! That is great for us! (Please do your homework before eating just anywhere )
Ya know...I'm not a trend. Nor do I expect a restaurant to cater to me, but so glad when they do, or can or informed! I am responsible for my life and what I put into my mouth....trend or not.
When I eat at a restaurant, it's my choice. I don't put the weight of my health on the server, kitchen or management. They don't know the level of my awareness, nor would I expect them to be. If I get ill, I accept the responsibility.
Eight years ago, when I began my gluten free journey...there was a vast nothingness of gluten free product, or awareness. To say "we've come a long way baby" is an understatement!!!!!
I'm rather pleased.
The trend issue is a double edge sword to me, it's annoying but it has opened more resources for us Celiacs!! And that makes me wicked happy! We have come a long way!

I stopped watching The Today Show when they fired Ann Curry and replaced her with Savannah Guthrie. During a story on the gluten free trend she called celiac disease a trendy disease and roll her eyes. I've tweeted her for to make a public apology and wrote a complaint to NBC at the time of the interview.

CELTIC WOMAN FACTS: Members: Chloë Agnew, Lisa Kelly, Lisa Lambe, Máiréad Nesbitt Genre: World, Classical Hometown: Ireland Albums: Celtic Woman (2005); Celtic Woman: A Christmas Celebration (2006); Celtic Woman: A New Journey (2007); Celtic Woman: The Greatest Journey (2008); Celtic Woman: Songs from the Heart (2010) Awards: Hits: Other: David Downes, part of the team that formed the band, was a musical director for Riverdance.
Few bands are more responsible for bringing mainstream attention to Irish music than the all-female ensemble Celtic Woman. Over the past six years, the quartet has been playing sold-out shows across the globe, and despite several lineup changes over the years, the band remains among the most popular live acts throughout Ireland and Europe.
Celtic Woman was the brainchild of Sharon Browne and David Downes. The two were looking to capitalize on the growing popularity of Irish-influenced shows such as Riverdance and Lord of the Dance. The band's first mainstream performance occurred not too soon after their founding, when they performed in front of a sold-out crowd at a concert that was later aired on PBS in March 2005.
Encouraged by the popularity of their first foray into the mainstream, the band's 2005 self-titled debut album was an immediate hit. The record reached the top spot on Billboard World Music Chart. Thanks to their recordings of "May it Be," "Danny Boy" and "Ave Maria," the album stayed on top of charts for an astounding 68 weeks.
Celtic Woman's second album, 2006's Celtic Woman: A Christmas Celebration, was equally as successful. With a unique take on a number of holiday classics, including "White Christmas," "Carol of the Bells" and "O Come All Ye Faithful." The record also reached the top spot on on the world music charts, and broke onto the Billboard 200 charts as well, peaking at number 35.
In 2007, the band reached a new level of success with the release of their third album, Celtic Woman: A New Journey. The record was released following another PBS special, and debuted at the number four spot on the Billboard 200. It also reached the top spot on the world music charts once again, thanks in part to covers of classic tunes such as "Over the Rainbow" and "Scarborough Fair."
Over the last several years, Celtic Woman has continued to grow in popularity throughout the world. The group has performed at venues ranging from the United States to Japan. Their current lineup of Chloë Agnew, Lisa Kelly, Lisa Lambe and Máiréad Nesbitt has continued the band's impressive streak of successful albums, and with more than 6 million records sold worldwide, Celtic Woman shows no sign of slowing down.
I received my tickets very quickly and the seats were great. I will definitely use TicketCity again!Kathleen - San Francisco, CA

I never read help files. Video tutorials would be much better But I agree, GUI definitely needs to be improved!
And I also think that FARR should be as simple as possible with option to switch to more advanced mode => by simple as possible I do not mean only less options but BFU friendly, so that I can install it on my grandmother's pc
BTW: is it possible to translate FARR?

Ocean County, New Jersey, was particularly devastated by the affects of Hurricane Sandy, and the ASPCA is on the ground there conducting water and land rescues for animal displaced or lost during the storm.
At the request of the Ocean County Health Department and the Ocean County Sheriff's Department in Toms River, New Jersey, ASPCA responders arrived on the ground late Thursday to work with local officials to assess the situation and establish a system to reunite pet parents with their animals.
On Friday, an eight-person team responded to more than 30 animal rescue requests, retrieving displaced pets and reuniting them with their owners.
"Many people have lost their homes due to the storm, and our goal is to alleviate some of the stress for pet owners by reuniting them with their animals," says Dr. Dick Green, Director of Disaster Response for the ASPCA Field Investigations and Response team.
These efforts are a true collaborative effort with other responders from the International Fund for Animal Welfare, Animal Rescue League of Boston, as well as the New Jersey Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and Toms River Animal Control.
For updates on the ASPCA's response to Hurricane Sandy, keep visiting this blog, and follow the ASPCA on Twitter.
Please help us continue to provide food, supplies and relief for those affected by Hurricane Sandy.
Right now in New York City, thousands of people are waiting in lines, some that stretch for blocks. They're waiting for the basic necessities: food, water, toilet paper and, yes, pet food.
Victims of Sandy have been through so much, but that doesn't mean they've stopped caring about their pets. For some NYC residents, their pets may be all they have left.
So as early as we could, the ASPCA began visiting some of the hardest hit areas with desperately needed pet supplies like dog food, cat food and cat litter. At each location, we've barely opened up our trucks before they are emptied by pet parents in need.
As our responders handed out supplies to everyone we could this afternoon, an 11- or 12-year-old boy stopped to thank us.
"Thank you so much," he said. "I have a dog at home, and he's hungry."
Help us continue to provide food, supplies and relief for those affected by Hurricane Sandy.
For updates on the ASPCA's response to Sandy, please keep visiting this blog, and follow the ASPCA on Twitter.
As we all know, Hurricane Sandy left a path of destruction along the East Coast this week. As animal lovers, many of us are concerned about pets of evacuees and other animal victims of the storm. Here's how we're taking action to support pets affected by Sandy and how you can help.
- All New York City evacuation centers allow families to bring pets, and the ASPCA has been working closely with them as well as shelters on Long Island to care for more than 400 owned animals.
- We're coordinating animal response efforts in the area, and our responders are keeping animal water-rescue teams and transport trailers at the ready to deploy around the region at a moment's notice.
- With the city's Animal Planning Task Force, we've set up a hotline for pet parents who evacuated their homes and left their animals behind to ensure these animals are rescued immediately.
- In partnership with Petsmart Charities, we've set up a distribution center in Syracuse, New York, to distribute crates, food, litter and other supplies for thousands of animals throughout the region.
If you'd like to volunteer your time or donate supplies, please contact your local animal shelter to check on their current needs. Many shelters in hard hit areas like New Jersey are running low on pet food and other supplies.
We're committed to helping all area pet parents get through this difficult time.
Please help us respond to animals impacted by Hurricane Sandy and other natural disasters.
Even as their region was devastated by Superstorm Sandy, a New Jersey couple found time to step up for an animal in need.
After spending days inside waiting out the storm without electricity, Gloria Delgado and Wilfredo Garcia took their dog for a walk Tuesday to survey the damage to their Elizabeth neighborhood.
A few blocks from their home, they saw something strange: a little white car idling at the edge of a park. The couple heard a yelp and a car door slam, and then watched as the car sped away.
To their horror, Delgado and Garcia realized a Hound/Pit Bull mix puppy, white with brown spots and about five months old, had been pitched out of the car, left to fend for herself among the downed trees and debris. Delgado called to the confused puppy, and she came right away.
Delgado and Garcia waited for 20 minutes—perhaps, they thought, she fell out of the car? But the car never returned, so they took the puppy home to their dark apartment.
"She was so nice," Delgado says. "So good and playful with our kids and our dog."
The puppy stayed the night, but the Garcia family knew they couldn't keep her forever. Delgado cleans houses in Manhattan, and she decided to bring us the puppy when she returned to work. On Wednesday, the entire Garcia family braved hours of traffic to ensure the dog reached us safely.
"I lived in Manhattan a long time ago, so I know how the ASPCA takes care of animals," Garcia says. "I knew they would take care of this dog."
We are so grateful that the Garcia family took care of this sweet and happy little puppy, who is receiving care at our Adoption Center and will be made available for adoption soon. Of course, we named her Sandy.
For more information about the ASPCA's rescue and relief efforts during Sandy, please stay tuned to our blog and Twitter account.
UPDATE: Sandy has been adopted!

Here is the per hole analysis for the AAA-II. This is second round only because I don't have the first round scorecards. 5,6,14,16 are all in the short positions. 3 is middle left.
Looks like the pros had a rough time at hole 4 =-)
AAA-II Hole Analysis
Some interesting 2.5 holes that I didn't think would be. 14 short for example.
I'll see if we still have the cards for the first round and run those also...
