Dog-Friendly, Dog Training That Works
Speaking Dog the Bark Busters WayWelcome to Bark Busters Australia, part of the international dog training company founded over 28 years ago. Bark Busters founders Sylvia and Danny Wilson have refined a method of dog obedience training that makes dog training easy and accessible to all. With Bark Busters, you work directly with a dog trainer in your own home using a method that takes into account the unique challenges you're facing and then fosters a positive relationship between you and your dog. This method enables you to build a lasting, emotional bond based on trust and respect, which in turn aids in overcoming past challenges with your pet. Bark Busters dog trainers focus heavily on training people, as much or more as training dogs, so that once you learn to communicate effectively with your dog, you will have the necessary tools to be an effective dog trainer and "leader of his/her pack."

Kevin, one of the original sharks from Shark Tank, and his panel of experts chose the GameChanger® for it's innovative design!

Carol asks...
This question is about:Rosie is a rescue dog so there is seven years of unknown history. She is very affectionate - but I suspect too affectionate - i.e. "needy" and this may be fuelling some separation anxiety. She's OK to be left alone for short periods by day (we're home most of the time), but has partially destroyed our newly-renovated house's walls at night in trying to be with us. We've taken to crating her at night but she has made a good job of rearranging the walls of her metal crate! She also has become frantic if there is a storm and now has been prescribed Xanax (with excellent effect) by our vet. But, as she is a very strong dog, we are concerned if a storm strikes without our being there. We have class panelled doors and I fear the outcome. This is our main issue. As yet she has not been socialized with other dogs. But she LOVES all humans. We would be interested in engaging a local person within your organisation to give us advice with Rosie. We've had Staffies before, but this one is something else!

Jumping Up
We often get called to see dogs who are in the habit of jumping up at people. It may be that they jump up at their owner, or visitors, or anyone they pass in the street! It's a behaviour that can be, at best, embarrassing for the owner or, at worst, putting the owner at risk of criminal charges and an expensive fine. Read more…
Choosing the Right Puppy
As Bark Busters dog trainers, we find that the New Year is a busy time for puppy training. If you are thinking of getting a puppy it is worth taking time to think about and prepare yourself for what you are taking on, and to make sure that the puppy you buy is right for you and your family. Having the right dog, properly trained, will bring you joy for years to come. Read more…
Managing Destructive Behaviours in Dogs
Dogs who seem intent on destroying the contents of your home and garden can be very difficult to live with. As humans, we find it difficult to understand why our dogs choose to chew chairs, tables, stairs, carpets, skirting boards and walls; some dogs will tear up and chew carpets and vinyl. These can be very expensive habits for any owner to tolerate, and may even result in a dog being rehomed. Read more…
Does your dog get car sick? Did you know that 1 in 5 dogs suffer from car or motion sickness? Dog motion sickness is real and can happen even on short jaunts. Know that most carsickness episodes in dogs are brought about by stress and not the motion itself. Your final destination may be what is making your dog worried or sick. Read more…

When Helen Mirren announced that she had finally found a window in her film schedule to tread the boards after a six-year absence from the stage, her fans couldn't wait to book their tickets to see Phaedra at the National Theatre this summer.
But yesterday it emerged that even her grand return to theatre will be filmed for cinema. The cameras just can't seem to stay away from Mirren.
Nicholas Hytner, director of the National Theatre, revealed that Mirren had become the first theatre actor to give her approval to having one night of her performance at the National filmed and broadcast live in 150 cinemas across the globe.
In an unprecedented move, Hytner has decided to allow cameras into four productions this year to stream theatrical performances live to 50 cinema auditoriums in the UK, as well as about 100 further afield, where plays could be broadcast up to 24 hours after they had been performed.
The theatre is currently in consultation with independent cinemas. Hytner said filming would include close-ups of actors, and would most likely take place a week or two after opening night. Audiences would be offered cheaper tickets due to the presence of the cameras. What he also envisaged was additional footage for cinema viewers, including backstage and interviews during intervals.
Hytner called the move, which emulates the Royal Opera House in London and the Metropolitan Opera in New York, an "experiment" that would initially cost the theatre £200,000.
But if proven successful, it would allow cinema audiences around the world to tune into live theatre for a cut-price £10 ticket and become blueprint for other theatres in the West End.
Mirren, said Hytner, would be fronting a major PR campaign, called NT Live, from the end of April, to highlight the plan. The hope is that audience figures would increase because of Mirren's performance in the live cinema version. He said three other plays would be shown in the same way, but declined to name them yet.
"It felt to us that someone in theatre had to try this and that it had to be us. We will spend money on this relatively expensive operation and we will see if there's a call for it," he said.
Hytner added that had there been live streaming when he was growing up in Manchester, he would have benefited from them. "If (Laurence) Olivier's productions had been available in Manchester when I was a teenager, I would have gone every time," he said.
Last September, the theatre revealed they had secured Mirren for the lead role in Racine's tragedy, which is translated by the poet, Ted Hughes. It will be directed by Hytner and ticket bookings open on 13 March. It will be Mirren's first stage appearance since winning an Oscar for her performance in the film, The Queen. She last trod the boards in 2003.
Hytner also announced a new play by Alan Bennett, about the poet, WH Auden, which would feature a fictional meeting between Auden and Benjamin Britten that led to the end of their friendship in the 1940s.

Santa Cruz County, Arizona Genealogy

Clerk Superior Court has marriage,
divorce, probate and Court Records from 1899,
military records 1888-1085
and adoption records from 1940 [1]
Santa Cruz County lies directly south of Tucson and Pima Counties. The town of Nogales is a major border crossing between the United States and Mexico, and is part of a 'twin border city' situation. Nogales is also the county seat.
A river runs north out of Mexico towards Tucson, also named the Santa Cruz.
The historic Catholic mission near Tubac on I-19 is significant in the history of the area. However, any records that were produced when this was actively a community and an active parish are not kept there, but may be with the Diocese in Tucson. Other missions are also nearby, mainly San Xavier which is in Pima County closer to Tucson.
Parent County
Arizona was part of New Spain until 1821, and then part of Mexico until 1846. Some records of early Arizona settlers may have been sent to an archives in Seville, Spain, or to archives in Mexico City.
Moreover, Arizona was part of the United States' New Mexico Territory from 1846 to 1863. In 1855 the Gadsden Purchase was added to New Mexico Territory as part of Doña Ana county, including much of the land that became part of Arizona. Present-day Santa Cruz County, Arizona was once part of Doña Ana county in New Mexico.[2] When Arizona was created in 1863, the former New Mexico counties were dissolved within Arizona's borders and eventually new counties were formed.
If an ancestor lived in what is now Santa Cruz County, Arizona between 1855 and 1863, first check for records in Santa Cruz County. However, there is also a small chance that a few papers were recorded in a parent county's courthouse in Arizona (if any), or in the corresponding parent county in New Mexico.
1899--Santa Cruz County was created 15 March 1899 from Pima and Cochise Counties.
County seat: Nogales [3]

The Better Angels of Our Nature : A History of Violence and Humanity Paperback
by Steven Pinker
-Shortlisted for the Samuel Johnson Prize 2012 This acclaimed book by Steven Pinker, author of The Language Instinct and The Blank Slate, argues that, contrary to popular belief, humankind has become progressively less violent, over millenia and decades.
Can violence really have declined? The images of conflict we see daily on our screens from around the world suggest this is an almost obscene claim to be making.
Extraordinarily, however, Steven Pinker shows violence within and between societies - both murder and warfare - really has declined from prehistory to today.
We are much less likely to die at someone else's hands than ever before.
Even the horrific carnage of the last century, when compared to the dangers of pre-state societies, is part of this trend.
Debunking both the idea of the 'noble savage' and an over-simplistic Hobbesian notion of a 'nasty, brutish and short' life, Steven Pinker argues that modernity and its cultural institutions are actually making us better people. 'One of the most important books I've read - not just this year, but ever ...For me, what's most important about The Better Angels of Our Nature are its insights into how to help achieve positive outcomes. How can we encourage a less violent, more just society, particularly for the poor?
Steven Pinker shows us ways we can make those positive trajectories a little more likely.
That's a contribution, not just to historical scholarship, but to the world' Bill Gates 'Brilliant, mind-altering ...Everyone should read this astonishing book' David Runciman, Guardian 'A supremely important book.
To have command of so much research, spread across so many different fields, is a masterly achievement.
Pinker convincingly demonstrates that there has been a dramatic decline in violence, and he is persuasive about the causes of that decline' Peter Singer, New York Times '[A] sweeping new review of the history of human violence...[Pinker has] the kind of academic superbrain that can translate otherwise impenetrable statistics into a meaningful narrative of human behaviour...impeccable scholarship' Tony Allen-Mills, Sunday Times 'Written in Pinker's distinctively entertaining and clear personal style...a marvellous synthesis of science, history and storytelling' Clive Cookson, Financial Times 'Pinker's scholarhsip is astounding...flawless...masterful' Joanna Bourke, The Times Steven Pinker is the Johnstone Family Professor in the Department of Psychology at Harvard University. Until 2003, he taught in the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences at MIT.
He conducts research on language and cognition, writes for publications such as The New York Times, Time and Slate, and is the author of six books, including The Language Instinct, How the Mind Works, The Blank Slate and The Stuff of Thought.

Review by mbmackay
This is a mighty book about a very interesting and surprising piece of information - the decline of violence in almost all forms across most societies in the world.Pinker piles up the data from an amazing range of sources until even the most sceptical reader must be convinced - levels of violence really have fallen, and to a quite amazing degree.Then Pinker tries to go through causes and contributory factors. And there are many. The first is the role of an effective state in its "monopoly of violence". As Locke stressed in the Leviathan, man not living in an organised state lives in a state of war. Then there are many others to follow - a general "civilising process"; the enlightenment, the growth in empathy that flowed from the widespread consumption of fiction made possible by the printing process and the growth in literacy levels are key factors.I think there is a shorter book in here, but that is not Pinker's style. And with such a great story to tell, it is hard to criticise.Read October 2014.

Welcome to Asian Recipes 101. First up: Beef Fried Rice. For those interested in expanding their culinary toolbox to include asian-inspired dishes, Beef Fried Rice is the perfect introductory recipe. It's quick, easy and most importantly, doesn't require any crazy asian ingredients to scare you off (we're looking at you Black Mung).
As with many Asian recipes, the vegetables you use are entirely up to you. I've had beef friend rice that included 15 different veggies, but we found ourself picking out a few that over powered the dish. We love edamame but don't care for it mixed into food. The texture just doesn't do anything for us. But you may disagree and find it perfect to include in your final version.
This 9 ingredient Easy Fried Rice Recipe can be paired with our Egg Drop Soup or Benihana's Ginger Salad Dressing to make it a full blown Chinese meal.
Use cold rice! We make the rice in the morning and stick it in the refrigerator until it's dinner time. Better yet? Make it the day before. It sucks the excess moisture out which leads to a nice crunchy exterior. Hot rice = mushy rice.
Prep ALL the ingredients in advance. It's best to have your eggs whisked, onions diced and soy sauce on the counter, ready for action.
Fried Rice is similar to Caramelized Onions. Just when you think they're ready, count to 30. The additional cook time will really elevate the crunch and taste of the rice. You want it a little colored vs stark white.
Chinese Fried Rice should be loaded with veggies! Please don't skimp. That would be a travesty to Chinese Fried Rice everywhere.

The Maryland football team opens its 2013 season on Saturday afternoon against Florida International, a young bunch led by first-year coach Ron Turner. Turner comes to the Panthers after eight NFL seasons with three franchises, including spending the past eight years as the quarterbacks coach in Tampa Bay. Turner inherited a brutally inexperienced team at FIU, one with zero returning starters in the backfield or along the offensive line, and troubled by several off-the-field issues among the running backs this offseason.
I talked to Turner via telephone on Wednesday afternoon to break down the matchup, his adjustment back into college and keeping the Panthers focused. Here's Five Questions with Ron Turner:
As a first-year coach, how has the adjustment been for you?
There's always some surprises. There have been some that we're trying to work through, just establish the way we want the program to be done. In doing that, when you do change sometimes, everyone doesn't accept the change. Most guys have. Most guys have bought in and feel good about what we're doing. There were a few guys who didn't buy in and weren't doing it the way we want done, and what the expectations were on and off the field. Some of those guys aren't with us, some of them are — I don't know how long, until they get it going. When you try to establish something, change can be tough on people. We were just trying to establish our identity.
Do you feel like the majority of players have bought into the new regime?
I think most have. The ones who haven't, the other guys are trying to get them to come on board and are frustrated with the ones that aren't. But a high, high percentage have. I think the guys who love what we're doing offensively and defensively and the way we're running the program and everything else. It's just a matter of changing expectations, what we expect on a daily basis, and being demanding until we get it done.
With such a young team, Maryland has almost no film of your current players to study. Can that be an advantage for you?
I don't know about that. They're going to go out and do what they do. They're going to run their offense, run their defense, and I'm sure there's nothing we can throw at them that they haven't seen in the past and can adjust to. At times that can be overrated. The way you win games is by executing better than the other team. If you do that, it's the same thing with us. We have film on them, but every time you go into a new season, they had a whole offseason to adjust and add in wrinkles. We just have to go in and adjust, and I'm sure it's the same for them.
What do you see when you look at Maryland?
I see a good team, with good speed and good athletes. I know they had injuries at quarterback last year that really made it tough, but I see a good football team. Good skill, good athletes, three guys who have started on the offensive line, which is always a good starting point. They've got a big-time receiver in Diggs, who we have to pay attention to every time he lines up. I see a team that's very talented, and a well-coached team. Their schemes are all very sound. They're going to go out and execute well.
Maryland last year, in its opener, had 12 true freshmen play. How are those kids handling this? They're on campus, wide-eyed, head spinning like most freshmen, and then suddenly they're expected to start the season-opener on the road.
That can be tough. They're handling it about as well as they can. You see some good days, some bad days, some guys going out and making plays, then days they look like inexperienced freshmen. When you walk out on the field, you're no longer a freshman. If you're on the field, you're expected by the other 10 guys in that huddle to make plays and do you r job. You're not focusing on doing anything else but each and every play doing your job. At times they do that, but at other times you see they get a little overwhelmed, get the big eyes and all that. I'm anxious to get all these guys on the field. My experience has shown, sometimes somebody gets on the field, it's not too big for them and they actually play better than they do in practice. Then for other guys, their eyes get big, and maybe it is too big for them. I'm anxious to see where we are.
(Bonus!) What's been the biggest surprise for you at FIU?
Probably just some of the off-the-field issues we've had this offseason, with some of the guys that were here and some of the things that went on when I first got here. That's probably been the biggest thing. Other than that, there haven't been any huge adjustments. I coached at college for a long time, so I was in the NFL for a while then back in college before that, so I knew what to expect as far as the rigors of being a student-athlete and all that goes on with that.
I think having four kids of my own, and they're in that age area, probably has helped. I've got one daughter who just graduated college, another who's a junior in college, a couple sons that just graduated a couple years ago. That probably helps keep me in touch with what's going on.
— Terps' coaches stick together.
– Terps still young, but more experienced than last year.
– Mike Wise: C.J. Brown has a healthy outlook.

Written by Steven Hansen
There have been several posts recently in cyberspace talking about the disproportionate growth of corporate earnings to the earnings of our Joe Sixpack.
The graph below is indexed to the first date that the BEA produced a common data set for both corporate profits and personal income.
If one takes the index and moves it to January 1990, the data has a different feel.
I have written extensively that something(s) changed in the economy around 2000 causing much slower economic growth and a real decline in employment levels. The blame could be placed on:
Free Trade Agreements – Free trade likely caused much of the employment difficulties since 2000, although I doubt this factor is in play anymore as dynamics have changed to favor U.S. domestic vs. foreign production.
Non-Productive Income from Money -Many pundits spout about productivity without realizing that productivity is hard to measure. Productivity is a time-and-motion tool originally designed to measure man-hours against output. Once modern day economists started to utilize this tool using monetary factors (as they could not spend the time to really measure the time-and-motion elements) – this tool became corrupted. Further, control (the relative correlation over time) was lost when they tried to factor outsourcing (including several other issues listed below) using monetary measures. Income or spending is not appropriate for measuring productivity – they are related to profit measurement.
Table 1 – Sector Breakdown of Income Growth between 1Q2001 and 3Q2013 (extracted from BEA Table 6.1D. National Income Without Capital Consumption Adjustment by Industry)
Sector | Percent Real Income Growth 1Q2001 to 3Q2013 | Contribution to Private Industry Income Growth |
Private industries | 39% | 100.0% |
Agriculture, forestry, fishing, and hunting | 173% | 3.2% |
Mining | 100% | 3.1% |
Utilities | 27% | 1.7% |
Construction | -4% | 2.8% |
Manufacturing | 4% | 8.5% |
Durable goods | 0% | 4.5% |
Nondurable goods | 10% | 4.1% |
Wholesale trade | 28% | 6.9% |
Retail trade | 14% | 6.5% |
Transportation and warehousing | 30% | 3.5% |
Information | 31% | 4.0% |
Finance, insurance, real estate, rental, and leasing | 25% | 18.9% |
Professional and business services | 45% | 18.2% |
Educational services, health care, and social assistance | 67% | 15.0% |
Arts, entertainment, recreation, accommodation, and food services | 67% | 4.9% |
Other services, except government | 22% | 3.0% |
Government | 24% |
One measure of productive use of money would be the number of people employed by the various sectors (table 2 below) – and compare the results with the growth of profits in table 1 above:
Table 2 – Employment Growth by Sector
1Q2001 Percent of Employment | 4Q2013 Percent of Employment | Percent employment growth from 1Q2001 to 4Q2014 | |
Finance and Insurance | 4.7% | 4.6% | 1.7% |
Agriculture | 1.9% | 1.7% | -5.6% |
Construction | 5.9% | 5.6% | -4.1% |
Manufacturing | 13.7% | 9.4% | -29.7% |
Transportation & Utilities | 21.1% | 20.6% | 0.1% |
Agriculture | 1.9% | 1.7% | -5.6% |
Retail Trade | 12.4% | 12.1% | 0.0% |
Information Services | 3.0% | 2.1% | -28.0% |
Professional & Business Service | 13.5% | 14.7% | 11.7% |
Education & Health Services | 12.3% | 16.3% | 35.6% |
Leisure & Hospitality | 9.6% | 11.2% | 19.3% |
If employment gains were the measure of productive use of money, the winners are:
- leisure & hospitality
- education and health
There is no arguing that education is an investment in the future of the economy by providing an educated workforce. But health care has both positive and negative economic implications. Leisure and hospitality has little future economic benefit – it is mostly related to instant gratification.
What is economically productive use of money, and how does one measure productive use of money?
This week productivity for the 4Q2013 was released showing a quarter-over-quarter growth of 3.2% for non-farm business. The fallacy here is that productivity is NOT being measured properly. Most assume that if a business makes the same amount of money using fewer people it is a PRODUCTIVITY improvement. Described correctly, what is going on is that employment is becoming a smaller component in corporate outlays. The reasons fewer people are needed may be due to elements unrelated to labor productivity such as:
- outsourcing [note that the BLS tries to adjust for this but is admittedly not successful];
- changes to the product (e,g. no customer service or selling warranties as a separate profit center) to make it less labor intensive (try contacting a person at Yahoo or Facebook for assistance);
- closing or discontinuing products or services or marketplaces (usually caused by cutting operations with lower profit margins);
- cutting back on plant maintenance or investments – or reducing overhead functions in an organization (such as human resources, benefits, company transport);
- producing an entirely new product which replaces an existing product (internet streaming vs. broadcast TV).
Many pundits attribute this seemingly lower pay and lower employment to corporate greed. A corporation is bound by its mission to maximize the bottom line.* I don't call this greed but it is an argument over semantics as the end result is the same.
*Of course we could get into the difference between maximizing the bottom line for a quarter rather than a multi-year business cycle. But that is a discussion to be left for another day.
In Economics 101, we learned that there are winners and losers with productivity gains. But in the end, productivity gains historically are a positive economic dynamic. Many are now saying that the current productivity improvements have not resulted in the historical correlation (improvement) to labor rates. The foundation of this comparison is sound since history has shown it to be true for significant periods of time. I believe that any economic theory is true until it is no longer true. All economic theories are generalizations and the exceptions (or parameters) of these theories are unknown until they are tested. Add my argument that we are no longer measuring "real" productivity – and one can begin to understand that trying to correlate productivity and wages may be a fools mission.
Few are understanding that automation (one of the elements of productivity measurement) has passed the tipping point where the automation job gains are not overcoming the job losses caused by automation. We are making machines and computers more durable – they require less maintenance, and fewer and fewer people to build. That could well mean that the labor intensive service sector is ripe to the type of labor saving automation seen in manufacturing.
We may now experience a productivity improvement in services that doesn't see a corresponding increase in production but results in a diminishing of the labor share of services – and from that a decline in relative aggregate demand.
Will we continue to optimize by the quarter and not assess the longer-term impacts?
This entire situation brings to mind Skynet. One might say that Skynet is active. Judgment Day has passed. But like boiling frogs slowly in water – the humans are not understanding what is going on, and believing the enemy is corporations or government or whatever. There are likely defenses against Skynet – but they cannot be discovered if no one sees the problem.
Other Economic News this Week:
The Econintersect economic forecast for February 2014 continues to confirm a moderately improving economy without the roller coaster effect seen from the end of the Great Recession to mid 2013. Is this suggesting 2014 will be a good year? – This remains to be seen.
The ECRI WLI growth index value has been weakly in positive territory for over four months – but in a noticeable improvement trend. The index is indicating the economy six month from today will be slightly better than it is today.

Initial unemployment claims went from 348,000 (reported last week) to 331,000 this week. Historically, claims exceeding 400,000 per week usually occur when employment gains are less than the workforce growth, resulting in an increasing unemployment rate. The real gauge – the 4 week moving average – marginally worsened from 333,000 (reported last week) to 334,000. Because of the noise (week-to-week movements from abnormal events AND the backward revisions to previous weeks releases), the 4-week average remains the reliable gauge.

A warning from the past — some conspiracies are very real and are also large and well organized and in process for a long time. Such is the nature of Communist activities in the USA. The target of the seditious political conspiracy we are currently faced with is to destroy our U.S. Constitution, our Republic, our culture, and our military. Remember this quote from history: "We must now face the harsh truth that the objectives of communism are being steadily advanced because many of us do not recognize the means used to advance them. … The individual is handicapped by coming face to face with a Conspiracy so monstrous he cannot believe it exists. The American mind simply has not come to a realization of the evil which has been introduced into our midst." Quote by: J. Edgar Hoover former FBI director. Source: Elks Magazine (August 1956).
Marxist/Communists are trained to lie. It's their modus operandi to deceive their true objectives. Obama is not just a pathological liar, he's an ideological liar: http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2013/12/obama_is_not_a_pathological_liar_he_is_an_ideological_liar.html

Level 3: Advanced Wine and Spirits
The WSET Level 3 course (formerly called the advanced certificate) is one of the most globally-recognized achievements in the wine industry. The Level 3 Certificate is geared towards wine professionals or people interested in entering the wine industry, especially those looking for increased responsibility, leadership, and decision-making. Wine enthusiasts with a serious commitment and passion will also enjoy this course, as it is interactive and customized to individual class dynamics and interests.
What's Covered
In this newly-revised program, we'll embark on an in-depth examination—and systematic tasting program—of every major world wine region, including France, Italy, Spain, and other regions in Europe, North and South America, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa. For each region we examine the soil, climate, viticulture and winemaking factors that impact wine style, quality, and price. We'll also cover additional types of wine, including fortified and sparkling wines, as well as spirits and liqueurs.
Students who successfully pass a final examination, including a written and tasting portion, are entitled to the title "WSET Level 3 Certified" and to use the WSET logo on their professional materials.
Classroom Courses
When taken in person, the Level 3 course usually meets over 16 two-hour sessions. We feel this format gives students the best opportunity to really digest and process information—as well as practice tasting—prior to the challenging final exam. Systematic wine tasting is a part of every session, with more than 90 wines tasted in the course.
Online Courses
The Level 3 online course follows a 9-week program consisting of a series of online activities, often based around group discussion, with an online tutor allocated to guide students. Each week covers a new topic and students can log in whenever they want during the week (there are set start and finish dates for each week, but no set class time). Students are given timed practice exams and assignments to prepare them for the final evaluation. Tasting activities are also provided to familiarize students with a systemic approach to tasting at Advanced level. When the course is over, students arrange with Grape Experience to take the exam in person.
The Level 3 course includes a complete study pack with an exclusive textbook and study workbook.
