Root Canal Therapy (Endodontic Treatment)
Unlike many general dentists, Dr. Jay Lopez has advanced training and expertise in root canal therapy. He routinely performs endodontic treatment for his patients in the comfort of his own Tucson office.
If you are experiencing prolonged dental pain or pain that comes and goes, especially when you eat and drink hot and cold foods and beverages, the pulp of a tooth may be inflamed or infected. This may be the result of tooth decay that has reached the inside of the tooth, a crack or chip in the tooth, a hard blow to the tooth, or a variety of other causes. Tooth discoloration or an infection in the gum tissue at the base of a tooth may also indicate the tooth needs endodontic treatment. Abscesses in the gum tissue should be treated immediately. Failure to seek urgent care may result in loss of a tooth or put you at severe systemic health risk.
In these circumstances, you want to know why you are experiencing symptoms, and if you are in acute discomfort, you want fast answers and treatment. When you call our office and explain your concern and symptoms, we will take your concerns seriously. We will schedule you as soon as possible. Dr. Lopez will diagnosis the situation and can predictably and painlessly provide root canal therapy if it is needed. If you suffer from dental anxiety and would like a sedative, Dr. Lopez can provide nitrous oxide, oral moderate sedation, or even IV sedation.
What to Expect
The first step is to examine, test, x-ray, and diagnosis the tooth. In our office, sedation options are also available. Dr Lopez is one of the few or only clinicians in Tucson that provides both root canal treatment and administration of IV sedation himself.
After your tooth is numb and you will feel no pain, Dr. Lopez makes an opening in the enamel to enter the pulp chamber and root canals. He then uses very small instruments to clean and prepare the pulp chamber and root canals to be sealed with a bioceramic material. This material is adhesively placed securely inside the tooth to ensure the complete sealing of the root canals. This way, the tips of the roots are sealed, the roots are filled, and the roots can continue to hold the tooth securely in place. If a posterior tooth, it needs to be restored with a dental crown. A crown is required, so the tooth will be strong enough to support the demands of the chewing forces.The crown Dr. Lopez designs for you will fit perfectly in your bite and provide optimal natural and aesthetic appearance.
Many times following root canal therapy, the tooth requires a core build-up or post inside the tooth to act as the foundation for the crown. If the risk of insufficient tooth structure is high, Dr. Lopez will discuss with you why removal of the tooth and replacement of the tooth with an implant may be a more conservative and more predictable long-lasting treatment option. He will inform you fully, so you can make the treatment decision that is best for you. We will closely follow you after endodontic treatment to make sure you continue to have optimal care.
Do You Have a Painful Tooth in Tucson, AZ?
This is no laughing matter. The longer you wait to address the problem, the worse the problem can become. With prompt diagnosis and treatment, you may be able to avoid acute pain. With early diagnosis, treatment can be minimized. Call Jay Lopez, D.D.S. today!

Atlanta got hit with 2-inches of snow and the world stopped. Literally. For 18-hours. It's been all over the national news and everyone is in disbelief. If you you think it's as simple as Southerners not being able to drive in the snow – you're wrong…. However, I am not here to talk about politics, I am here to get you to cook and this week I'm heating things up with one of my favorite wing recipes, Curried Wings with Peach Dipping Sauce.
Before I start winging it, I want to let you know I am featuring Pimento Cheese and Crab Dip in my Food Network column Down-home Comfort that will pop up online on Friday, so stay tuned for those recipes for your Superbowl party. (You can sign up for the column RSS feed here.) Today, I am sharing with you one of my favorite recipes for Curried Chicken Wings that I am certain you will love – they are lip-smacking, finger-licking good.
Bon Appétit Y'all!
Curried Chicken Wings with Peach Dipping Sauce
Makes about 24
Madras curry is a fairly hot curry blend, most often deep red from a heavy amount of powdered chile. Oddly enough, for a region that until recently considered any flavor other than bacon fat to be exotic, there is a history of curry in the South, which entered our region through the seaports of Savannah and Charleston.
3 pounds chicken wings (12 to 14 whole wings)
1 teaspoon Madras or spicy curry powder
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 to 3 jalapeños, cored, seeded, and very finely chopped, plus more for garnish
2 cloves garlic, very finely chopped
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
Dipping Sauce
1/2 cup plain 2% Greek-style yogurt
3 tablespoons peach preserves
1/4 teaspoon hot sauce, or to taste
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
Cilantro sprigs, for garnish
To prepare the chicken wings, cut off the wing tips (reserve to make stock), and halve the wings at the joint. In a large bowl, combine the wings, curry powder, turmeric, cayenne, soy sauce, canola oil, jalapeños, garlic, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight.
Meanwhile, to make the sauce, combine the yogurt, preserves, and hot sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until serving. Remove the marinated wings from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, then set a large wire rack on the foil. (I don't like to use a nonstick baking liner on the baking sheet in this instance because the curry can stain the silicone.)
Spray the rack with nonstick spray. Transfer the wings without crowding to the prepared rack. Bake until the wings are deep brown and the juices run clear, turning once, 15 to 20 minutes per side. (If you like charred bits, after the 40 minutes, turn the oven on to broil for about 5 more minutes.)
Taste the yogurt dipping sauce and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper. Garnish with cilantro and serve the hot wings with the dipping sauce on the side.

It has been getting more important for MAHs to comprehend PV regulations and regulatory expectations in Europe and Japan since PV activities should be a global system in itself. Considering the importance of stakeholders in the European Union and Japan in producing hiqh quality medicinal products around the world and their determining role in directing drug safety regulations, it is important to compare these regulations and expectations and to clarify the different aspects of PV activities and their characteristics. Therefore, the Research Quality Association (RQA) and the Japanese Society of Quality Assurance (JSQA) initiated a joint effort in which the regulations from both continents are compared in order to bring the similarities and differences in each of the important topics for PV. This booklet reflects the similarities and differences in the form of short versions for each of the subjects, furthermore a summary table is also incorporated at the end of it on order to have a quick view of all these comparisons and the related document which has served as reference.

Lincoln Movie Review
Having been to an early preview, here is our Lincoln review. Make sure you've packed a bag full of sweets, you've got a decent sized beverage and you've used the facilities because you're in for a long ride! Lincoln comes in at 150 minutes long, joining the ranks of many other ridiculously long films released in the past 12 months. As long as it is though, you won't want to leave to top up your soda or empty you bladder because it really is that good.
Having been to an early preview, here is our Lincoln review. Make sure you've packed a bag full of sweets, you've got a decent sized beverage and you've used the facilities because you're in for a long ride! Lincoln comes in at 150 minutes long, joining the ranks of many other ridiculously long films released in the past 12 months. As long as it is though, you won't want to leave to top up your soda or empty you bladder because it really is that good.
Lincoln is a wonderfully profound insight into the political machinations that were undertaken to outlaw slavery in the United States, rather than perhaps a full-scale biopic of the greatest American President. The film is set in the last year of Abraham Lincoln's presidency, 1865, with the American Civil War looking like its heading towards its conclusion. Whilst most would think to focus on the war itself, and might expect some brutally realistic war scenes which we have come to associate with Spielberg, instead the halls of DC are the real battleground. Based on Goodwin's Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln, a politically slanted biography of the President, we are given a wonderful look at all the ways in which Lincoln battled to banish slavery. Having taken the time to read the book myself, I thought the extrapolation of a screenplay and the way it is put together from the source material and historic accounts is very good.
There is an awful lot that contributes in making Lincoln perhaps the greatest film of the year and a shoe in for a whole host of trophies at the upcoming 2013 Academy Awards. Best Picture, Best Actor (Daniel Day Lewis), Best Supporting Actor (Tommy Lee Jones), Best Supporting Actress (Sally Field), Best Director (Spielberg), Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Costume Design, Best Film Editing, Best Original Score, Best Production Design and Best Sound Mixing round out all of the nominations. It is often the case that the awards will surprise, and shrink away from rewarding those with the most nominations, and yet if that were to happen this year I think it would be a travesty. The acting from Daniel Day Lewis has, quite rightly, grabbed the majority of the headlines.
Nobody has been awarded 3 Best Actor Oscars, so if Day Lewis walks away with the figurine in his hand, does that make him the best actor of all time? That is a whole other point for discussion, but in many peoples' eyes, it most certainly will be the case. Much is often made of his method acting style, and once again, he undertook his ridiculous levels of preparation, taking a whole year out to get in to character. During this time he reportedly read 100 books on the man, worked on perfecting his gait and high-pitched voice and spent more time in make-up than the entire cast of TOWIE do in a year. Rather than looking like one of those trollish, trumped-up tarts, he comes out looking exactly as you would have expected, a true masterpiece of prosthetics. Combining this wonderful look and the fact that he never breaks character, I can only assume him wandering around the set between shoots would have been marvellous to watch! His ability to play the measured politician as well as the fiercely impassioned man determined to pass his amendment and outlaw slavery, really makes this film great and should really be seen to be believed for how good it is. Of course, to say that he is the only person on screen would do a disservice to his fellow cast.
Supporting Day Lewis is the incredibly acerbic and witty Tommy Lee Jones as Thaddeus Stevens. Stevens role in history is not as forthright as Lincoln's, but passing the 13th amendment could not have been done without him. In this film he gets his credence, and the casting of Tommy Lee Jones seems fairly inspired as he has been prepared to drop a lot of the attitude and bask in the shadows here. Joseph Gordon-Levitt, the flavour of the year it seems, also does well as Robert Lincoln, although perhaps doesn't get enough of the limelight. However, the real second star of the movie is First Lady Mary Todd Lincoln, played by Sally Field. Her beautifully complex and emotional state is portrayed with real vigour, yet she appears remarkably fragile as a grieving mother at the same time. Whilst many would consider hers an Oscar worthy performance for a supporting actress, the competition this year is ridiculously tight.
Not everybody would agree that Lincoln does the real history justice. It would be typical for some historians to stick their noses in and say that far too much of the wording of the 13th amendment has been made, or that perhaps the roles of certain individuals are over/under played. Or even, perhaps, that there are costume errors or that the skyline isn't right for the time of year… These people should really just accept that no movie will ever be 100% accurate from a historical point of view, and really just be thankful that this medium is used here to help in education as much as in entertainment. Having said that, if history really isn't your thing, and you didn't even enjoy it when your teacher put on a TV episode or movie because they were feeling lazy, then this won't be for you. Another criticism of Lincoln would be that, through Spielberg's attention to detail, it ends up as a very slow moving film. Not only does this attention to detail result in a slow moving film, it perhaps helps to mask the distinct lack of flair that we are used to from Spielberg epics – all the debate, all the stories and the political discussion only serve to point this out. The only reason the film still works so well is due to the fantastic cast propping it up, and lesser actors would end up leaving you yawning about half-way through.
Interestingly, through this elongated history lesson, that we learn of how amazingly similar the political system of the past is to the present. If anything, with the dealing around the US fiscal cliff going on, it is a testament to great politicising and about making to ends meet in the middle, even when they at first seem so ideologically opposed. If you are a fan of wonderfully put together films, absolutely top quality acting, attention to detail, great writing and beautiful music (John Williams at it again), then you absolutely must see this film.

These days, we are all so engrossed in enhancing our careers with one end in mind – to make ends meet or in other words, provide for our families. We want to give our kids the best life has to offer and we work our bum off as we try to achieve this.
However, these kids we are working so hard to provide for, do we REALLY know them? What are their favourite movies? What do they like to eat? How are they doing in school? Are they mentally sound? Are they going through any hard time? Is anyone bullying them in school? Are they already developing those "emotions" for the opposite sex?
The most important question is – IS YOUR CHILD YOUR FRIEND?
You can only get the true answers to the above-mentioned questions and even more when your child is indeed your friend. Spend time with your kids. Build a relationship with them. Do not be their parents and provider only…be their friends, someone they can talk to and confide in. Help them with their home works.
Be actively involved in their lives – go for their music concerts; go for their football matches; be there for them at every opportunity they get to live out their talents. Show interests in their hobbies, activities, likes, dislikes. Trust me, you don't want to miss these.
Make memories.
Do not leave these tasks to the domestic staffs. No matter how helpful they are, they are not meant to take your roles as parents of these kids. You are not merely an ATM machine whose job is to work, work and do more work so you provide money for the bills to be paid.
Since the arrival of your kids into your life, your priorities changed and your kids take prominence. They are your responsibilities. Be their friends and not just parents. Only then can they trust you to let them into their world rather than see you as an autocratic boss that just dictates to them.
Walk the talk of love you profess to them. Be there for them. Help them grow to become people of virtues; people of integrity. Contrary to what you might think, there isn't time because your kids grow up so fast.

- Attributes of the Successful Archaeologist: A Fiel...
Izzy Starr, Preservation Archaeology Field School Student
In every field of study, it seems as though there are certain sets of traits that tend to fare better than others. At the Preservation Archaeology Field School, I have had the opportunity to observe archaeologists at work, and now I have some speculations as to the characteristics that best complement the archaeological environment.
In archaeology, everyone has a focus. And what one person might find scintillating, another might find incredibly dull. From what I have witnessed, one of the most frequent questions an archaeologist might be asked (and one that isn't at all rude) is: "Are you the one who is obsessed with…?" And you fill in the blank. Angular shatter, perforated plates—you name it, and someone, somewhere, will find it fascinating.
You must have passion, drive, curiosity, and critical thinking skills. Given the opportunity, it seems that archaeologists could debate migration patterns, potsherds, and lithic fragments for hours, jumping from topic to topic. Curiosity and critical thinking result in an immense amount of knowledge about a wide range of subjects that apply to many different subfields. An archaeologist with an interest in ceramics, while knowing the intricacies of his own subject, will also be aware of the ways in which his interests overlap with others' foci.
Archaeology is not an individual effort—you have to be a team player. If only one person were excavating a unit at one time, it would take forever to go through the many steps of excavation—digging, screening, mapping, paperwork, and many more. A team setting allows individuals to collaborate and put together a comprehensive understanding of a site (and amplify the overall nerdiness) as individuals apply their specialties to different aspects of a problem. As an archaeologist in training, I am benefitting from getting to know the different people involved with our project: some have an interest in stone tools, some in ceramics, and some are just excited to get experience and dig.
Archaeological sites (and sights) can be found around the world, and evidence of an archaeologist's passion can be found in their passport. Every archaeologist seems to have been dosed with wanderlust and curiosity about people in the past. Many of the other students here have had opportunities to work on previous field schools in Virginia, Belize, Arizona, and New Hampshire (me!), to name a few.
Archaeology can be tedious—let me tell you, it is no simple task to spent hours slaving in the hot New Mexican sun to unearth adobe architecture and Cliff phase (A.D. 1300–1450) artifacts. It is incredibly important for an archaeologist to be patient when excavating or when shaking excavated dirt through window screens, searching for tiny artifacts.
One of the most important traits of a successful archaeologist, I think, is a good sense of humor. Although fieldwork is knowledge- and skills-based, it is also based on interaction and bouncing ideas off one another. A crew that laughs together digs well together. Off-hours in the field are spent in one another's company, relaxing, flintknapping, swapping stories, and laughing about past archaeological field experiences. On my next field project, I'll have this summer's stories to tell.

Today I'll be teaching the first part of the Flax Sweater Workshop. My pupils will be measuring their gauge swatch and we'll be deciding which version (original or light) and what size they'll be knitting.
(above: Flax Worsted in size 6 months)
We'll be starting our sweaters and I'll be answering any questions that they might have.
In the second installment of this workshop, which will be on the 18th of February, we'll be separating for the sleeves and discussing how we can modify the pattern to add cables, lace or colourwork.

BP, in partnership with the IBBC Young Executives Network, host Iraqi Paralympian Ammar Ali at the British Museum
IBBC Member BP hosted a reception in honour of Iraqi Paralympian champion Ammar Ali at the British Museum on 17 January. The event was planned in partnership with IBBC's Young Executive Committee (YEN).
Numerous guests and YEN members were in attendance to welcome Ammar Ali, a 2015 wheelchair fencing world champion, as well as a Paralympian in the London (2012) and Rio (2016) games. Attendees heard the remarkable story of Ammar's journey from construction worker in Baghdad who was tragically injured during a bomb blast in 2007 that paralysed both of his legs and through adversity and immense perseverance has reached the pinnacle of sporting excellence representing Iraq globally.
Mr Zaid Elyaseri, BP Iraq Country Manager, hosted the event, which also featured traditional Iraqi Oud music and a private showing of the Ashurbanipal exhibition, King of the Neo-Assyrian Empire, which incorporated modern Iraq and who was once the most powerful man on earth.
Mr Sammy Sharifi, Chairman of the Young Executives Network, gave a presentation to guests on the activities of the YEN group, its core mission values and future aspirations for the network. For more information on the YEN group and how to get involved, please email email@example.com or visit: https://iraqbritainbusiness.org/sector/young-executives-network

The day began with a slight drizzle, but ended with a sunburn! The beautiful blue skies over the Deuel Farm in York, NY really enhanced the southern view as NYFOA volunteers generated big amounts of firewood. An even Baker's Dozen, if my math is correct, on the number of lumberjacks.
It's with great pleasure that the group welcomed new volunteers Anna & Michael Koelsch, Nick Steo and Mike Seager. Below is a pic of the group just after the unveiling of the new C4C sign, which sits proudly at the landing's entrance on State Route 20.
Chainsaws for Charity makes firewood so that 100% of the proceeds goes to fund various charities like The Rotary Camp Onseyawa for disabled children, NY's 4-H forestry team, and NYFOA's Woodland Mini Grants for Educators. NYFOA members are extremely generous and are working hard to help the next generation of forest owners to be successful.
Left to right, on the lower level, we have Eileen, Kathy, Greg, and Celia. Up top (L to R) we have Nick, David, Dana, Dale, Mike, Chris, Anna and Michael. Your photojournalist, not wanting to influence the outcome, steered clear of pictures and....actual work! Julie designed, built and painted the sign and is glad that it is now missing from the dining room. David repurposed a vintage farm cart into a cool mobile sign platform. While Gary could not make it on 30 APR, he visited ahead of time and blocked up several tons of logs. Speaking of which, a huge Thank You! to Tom Gerow and his team at Wagner Hardwoods for donating all of the fine hardwood logs. Wagner really cares about the future of our forests and our forest owners.
Here are some aerial views taken near the end of the session...
Nick and Michael look on as Mike Seager takes aim....
Here's a shot of Michael blasting through some rounds to finish off the event.
The C4C group takes frequent breaks to enjoy coffee, Sharon's wonderful baked goods and some good humor in the Deuel Sugarhouse. And after cleanup today, the group headed over to Dublin Corners Farm Brewery on Route 36 in York to discuss the day's events over a fresh NY beer.

The Benefits of Resistance Work
The benefits of resistance exercises, whether it's in the form of "fitness training" bodybuilding, or "Cross-fit" are numerous. You'll always get more "bang for your buck" with resistance training than any other forms of exercise. I promise that I won't go into a long dragged out article like I did the last time. I'll just state the benefits and let you take it from there.
I do like what strength and conditioning coach and personal trainer Nate Miyaki says about the benefits of resistance training:
- The body transformation process is much more complex than calories in vs calories out. The real key is the nutrition and exercise protocols to raise the resting metabolic rate and manipulate your anabolic, lipolytic hormones, and enzymes. Resistance training will have much more of a positive effect on these processes than aerobic training.
- Muscle loss because of excessive cardio greatly lowers the resting metabolic rate and inhibits natural hormone production.
- Calories burned during an exercise session are relatively small compared to the amount burned the other 23 hours of the day during the recovery process or at rest. Most fat oxidation occurs between training sessions, not during. Your exercise sessions should primarily be geared towards building muscle and boosting the metabolic rate, and not trying to burn fat.
- Upon cessation of an exercise session, resistance training raises the metabolic rate or the "after-burn effect" for much longer periods of time than aerobic work—up to 48 hours. This is because all of the steps involved in the recovery process from resistance training (cell activation, tissue repair, protein synthesis) all require energy (calories).
- Too many aerobic sessions raise cortisol levels. Long sessions can lead to excessively high levels, and too frequent sessions can lead to chronically elevated levels, neither of which is good for the bodies composition enhancement. Cortisol can force the body to break down its own muscle tissue, and through a long process, use it for fuel. It also can lead to increased fat accumulation, especially around the midsection.
- Resistance training also raises cortisol levels, but it also raises Testosterone and growth hormone-potent muscle building/fat burning hormones that can offset cortisol.
- Resistance training has more powerful, positive nutrient partitioning effects than cardio, meaning that the nutrients are diverted more towards the muscle cells and away from fat cells (where they can be stored as body fat).
I could list more of what research states on the benefits of weight training but I'll stop here for now.

Over 1,000 listed companies cheaper than Yuvraj Singh
Sebi leads multi-agency probe into black money scam by listed companies
StatsGuru: Decoding the quarterly results of listed companies
Insider trading norms to be applicable before listing
Sensex cos to report flat growth in income in Dec quarter
Last week, Tata Consultancy Services, India's largest software services exporter, appointed Aarthi Subramanian, the company's global head of the delivery excellence group, as executive director on its board.
This is in line with Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) rule of having at least one woman director on the board of all listed companies by April 1. However, surveys around board composition indicate that close to one-third listed companies are likely to miss the deadline. In September 2014, Sebi had given a six-month extension to companies to comply with this provision, dealing with norms for listed companies.
As many as 464 out of a total of 1,475 National Stock Exchange (NSE)-listed companies were yet to appoint a woman director on March 8, said Pranav Haldea, managing director, PRIME Database.
He added a flurry of announcements of such appointments were likely over the next two-three weeks. But the last-minute rush is also likely to see many woman family members from the promoter groups making the cut.
According to nseinfobase.com, over the past year at least 82 positions of NSE-listed companies have been filled by appointing women belonging to the promoter group. "Most corporates may eventually comply in letter, but not in spirit," said Haldea.
Many corporate head hunters, trainers and some directors themselves feel that the issue of not finding suitable woman candidates for the board is more deep seated, and its needs systemic course corrections.
The 2014 Catalyst Census: Women Board Directors notes that women's share of board seats in India is only 9.5 per cent. What further complicates the matter is that the proportion of senior management roles held by women in India is among the lowest in the world, pegged at 15 per cent, according to a report by Grant Thornton.
Some women have reluctance to raise their hands to take up the challenges and rigours that a top management job brings, according to Sangeeta Talwar, a marketing and branding specialist with three decades corporate experience, and currently on the board of half-a-dozen companies.
"Social perspectives and expectation requirements take their toll," said Talwar.
Catalyst found that nearly 50 per cent of Indian women drop out of the corporate employment pipeline between junior and mid-levels, compared with 29 per cent across Asia.
Some human resource heads complain that the restrictions in the number of directorship positions that a person can occupy according to Sebi corporate governance norms - a maximum of seven listed companies as an independent director and three, if the person is a whole-time director in a listed firm - makes their task harder. "Some relaxation for women directors would help," said the HR head of a finance firm.
However, many such as Irde feel there is no dearth of qualified women to take up board positions. "It is important to connect the right women with the right opportunities," she said.
Many trainers and human resource heads feel corporate India has to closely examine its retention strategies and pipeline-building processes to build on gender diversity within the organisation.
According to Shriram of Ingovern said it is futile to expect a regulatory need to bring about a mindset change within corporates.
"The pool can grow if companies recognise that gender diversity contributes to corporate performance." he added.
Having women from the family of the promoter on the board is a reality that corporate India and regulators have to live with, said Arun Duggal, chairman, Shriram Ownership Trust, who is involved in a mentorship programme for first-time woman directors. "This is a social change, and social evolution takes place with time," said Duggal.
Talwar said women from promoter families should have adequate exposure to the business before joining the board.
"A board position requires a director to bring to the table lot of strategic insights. They can only do that with proper exposure and professional training," she added. Irde, too, has nothing against choosing women on the boards of companies from promoter families as long as they are well qualified.
Many experts warn that if women from promoter families are given token board positions, the effectiveness of the board could get diminished in the long run. The best way to bite the bullet, say human resources experts, is to build on gender diversity across the organisation.

You talked about how youd taken a company that five years ago was known as a very consumer-focused company and built it into a very enterprise-focused company.
Thompson: And it will be more so when we get this transaction closed.
Today, we have about a 50-50 mix in our revenue stream from consumers and small businesses versus enterprise buyers. [After] the merger, itll be 25-75. Our business needs to mirror the market.
Our revenue streams need to look like how IT spending occurs around the world. With the capabilities that Veritas brings, we not only have a stronger portfolio, we are not susceptible to any one market vagary or one market collapse.
Bloom: We also look at the kind of talent pool thats involved in leading the management team in the combined company. Its a combination of IBM, Oracle [Corp.], HP [Hewlett-Packard Co.] talent.
The list goes on—enterprise-focused companies. Thats the background of most of the individuals that are driving the company forward.
Thompson: What I knew about consumer software you could fit in a thimble before I came to Symantec.
In 27 years, nine months and 13 days at IBM, I may have had a week or two of worrying about the consumer segment. But the reality also is that consumers spend an awful lot of money on software products.
Have you found that the enterprise customers are buying into the notion of integrating security across the enterprise?
Thompson: Theres no question that they want less complexity, less cost in implementation, a better way to determine to what extent they are in compliance with evolving regulations or even internal policies.
The fastest-growing part of our business right now is the integrated security gateway: putting six or seven security applications on a simple Linux appliance and plugging it in. Customers love it. They dont want to manage all the technologies.
They want to manage the end result, which is the information flow through their environments.
Three years ago, we announced the first integrated gateway security appliance. It had five applications on it. People laughed.
They said nobody buys security that way. Today, there are dozens of integrated security appliances.
Its my belief that this relationship between Symantec and Veritas is very much similar to what we did three years ago.
People didnt see integrated security three years ago, and they now are having some difficulty envisioning how security and availability solutions come together.
Is there an opportunity here for more managed services and professional services?
Thompson: I think that is a natural fit with what were trying to do. Both companies were investing in building a bigger services business.
The reason people outsource their security needs to Symantec is theyd rather take the few precious skills they have and focus them on building security policies and strategies.
They move the operational risk outside the company to a company like Symantec.
When you put these two companies together, all of a sudden you have practice-based consulting that can focus on security and availability management [and] backup and recovery capabilities, and if the customer decides he doesnt have the operational resources to handle that, we can handle that for them.
Bloom: The services pull for Veritas has continually been [to] architect a solution to reduce the complexity, driving the utility computing model.
How concerned are you about the moves that Microsoft [Corp.] is making in security?
Thompson: They are very necessary but not sufficient for the needs of the large enterprise. Microsoft has done a remarkable job of getting the market to focus on security, and thats good. But what [users are] going to want is a security provider who can look across all platforms and deliver a common solution that can run in a Windows environment, a Linux environment, a Unix environment and a variety of proprietary environments.
Were purpose-built. Were not distracted by computer games or a losing news network or a variety of other things. All we do is security.
In the consumer space, its clear that Microsoft will want to tap into what is an enormous market opportunity. And our view is bring it on.
Weve got a reasonably solid brand, weve got relationships with the channel, weve got products that have been rated by industry analysts around the world as the best in class.
So were not going to tuck our tails and run from Microsoft. Show up with a product, and well show you how we compete.
Are there any other areas that you see the merged company going after with acquisitions? Are there any other holes in the portfolio youd like to fill?
Thompson: If IBM didnt have a hardware business, we might go buy it [laughs]. Youre the first to hear that. But they have a hardware agenda, so maybe not.

We are committed to driving measurable improvements in our footprint. To ensure that we are on the right path, we follow industry best practices and continually measure our impact. ISO (International Organization for Standardization) standards help us meet our goals.
In 2018, several H.B. Fuller facilities were recertified to ISO standards around environmental impact. ISO 14001 outlines criteria for environmental management systems and helps organizations monitor their environmental footprint. ISO 50001 provides an energy management framework to guide organizations as they more efficiently use energy, leading to cost savings and resource conservation.
The H.B. Fuller facility in Mindelo, Portugal, successfully completed the transition to ISO 14001:2015, after previously being certified under ISO 14001:2004. This standard recognizes that a holistic approach to environmental management helps organizations contribute to sustainable development, protect the environment, and realize financial and operational benefits. We are proud that our Mindelo site has been certified to this standard for the second time, and we intend to pursue certification at additional sites in 2019.
Our facilities in Lüneburg and Nienburg, Germany, were each recertified to ISO 50001:2011. The energy performance approach outlined in this standard relies on a systematic and data-driven process, which supports H.B. Fuller's work to meet our energy intensity reduction target.
Andreas Rost, a project engineer supporting energy management in Lüneburg explained, "To comply with ISO 50001, we monitor our energy consumption, create action plans to achieve further reductions, and ensure that all employees understand the importance of saving energy." The teams in Lüneburg and Nienburg have plans in place to continue reducing energy intensity in coming years, including improving cooling water systems, upgrading to LED lights, and installing additional condensate pump stations to reduce natural gas consumption.We know that "what gets measured gets managed." Our work to comply with ISO environmental impact standards guides our progress and supports our continual efforts to improve our impact.

Tao Zhu Yin Yuan Tower
In 2010, Paris-based Vincent Callebaut Architectures were awarded as the successful tenderer for a one of a kind construction project. It was to be a luxurious residential tower located in the Xinyi District, the business district of Taipei, Taiwan.
It is one of Taipei's most architecturally unique and prominent buildings once completed, even one kilometre away from the Taipei 101 Tower. It was completed in 2018 and the apartment building is inspired by the double helical structure of human DNA. The project rises towards the sky with the DNA shape twisting around the central core. LKP Architecture worked alongside Callebaut, making a significant contribution to the building's design.
This architectural element offers a hyper-compacted core and a maximum flexibility of the housing storeys (with the possibility to unify two apartments units into one without any footbridge). It brings a reduction of view angles towards the urban landscape and a hyper-abundance of suspended gardens. The structural system for Tao Zhu Yin Yuan Residential Tower can be likened to a skier balancing himself with ski poles: the very rigid cylindrical central core with two outrigger trusses at the roof level is akin to a skier with an upright back and extended arms. The living spaces are supported by Vierendeel trusses that extend from the core and are supported at the extremities by two curved mega columns that extend from the roof level outrigger trusses to the foundation.
Additionally, and more impressive, is the fact the Tower, also known as 'Agora Garden', presents a pioneering concept of sustainable residential eco-construction that aims at limiting the ecologic footprint of its inhabitants by researching the right symbiosis between the human being and the nature. The wide planted balconies of suspended orchards, organic vegetable gardens, aromatic gardens and other medicinal gardens makes tower look like a twisting vertical forest.
Tao Zhu Yin Yuan Residential Tower's design is comprised of a large cylindrical central core, flanked on opposite ends by two nearly rectangular living spaces (each of these will make up 40 apartments). Each floor rotates 4.5 degrees relative to the prior floor for a total rotation of 90 degrees through the 21 floors. The tower identifies as forest architecture – showing great combination of science and technology as well as harnessing nature to help the surrounding environment.
The main target of this build has been devoted to promoting carbon-absorbing, in order to help tackle global warming. The buildings balconies will be covered in 23,000 trees and shrubs – and it is estimated that because of this the building will absorb around 130 tonnes of carbon dioxide a year. There are 165 metres of garden space for each unit, and over ten trees besides shrubbery planted on each floor. Even on ground level, the surrounding area has metres of foliage. As well as reducing the levels of Co2, the plants will provide a partition between the noise of the city and the peaceful apartments.
It's not just the plants that will help reduce the buildings carbon footprint, the Tao Zhu Yin Yuan Tower has several innovative sustainability enhancing features aimed at reducing energy and water consumption. There's a solar and wind power system on its roof which will supply electricity to the building, and reduce carbon dioxide intake by 35 tonne. The core cylinder will be used to create natural ventilation that can reduce indoor temperature and decrease air conditioning consumption. There's a rainwater recycling system installed to feed the ground floor sprinklers. According to the Cradle to Cradle concept where nothing is lost and everything transforms itself( a philosophy Callebaut follows) ; all the construction and furnishing materials for the building are selected through recycled and / or recyclable labels. By imitating the processes of natural ecosystems, it deals thus with reinventing in Taiwan the industrial and architectural processes in such a way that it produces clean solutions, and creates an industrial cycle where everything is reused, either back to the ground as non-toxic organic nutrients, or back to the industry as technical nutrients able to be indefinitely recycled. The first of its kind, the project reveals the symbiosis of human actions and their positive impact on the nature.

We are hoping that we can develop this 12 acre plot of ground that will help raise some revenue or the church. A poultry operation has been started and first crop of chickens was sold last week with the new chicks coming next week.
Today we are holding a Sabbath service, a lunch with a Bible Study in the afternoon with a session for ladies included.
The sermonette this morning was "Walking in Faith" by Morris Phiri followed by my sermon about prayer. The church hired a cook to prepare the meal for $10. The attendance was 59 today. It was great to see people that we are getting to know more and more as we visit Zambia more and more. While we say that "this" may be our last trip to Zambia, we always get swept up into coming again.
We took a group shot of the church after the morning church along with our scholarship students.
The Bible Study was on the first chapter of Ephesians. Then we had testimonials from people talking about some of their experiences of God working in their lives.
Also, others told their life's story. It was all so interesting.
About half-way through Bev held a separate session with the ladies outside the hall.
The Talama's drove us back to the the Palmwood Lodge that we really like. Bev and I had a small dinner outside. Lisa, the Italalien/Zambian colored lady who owns the Lodge came and talked to us. She told us about another retreat center that she is developing east of Chongwe which is the next town east of our church property. She talked to us about an English designer by the name of Donald who was doing the designing work for her. He lives at the Palmwood Lodge and she asked him to talk to us. He told us about his creative spiritual design work that was suitable for people of any faith. He talked to us for about an hour and shared with us his philosophy of life.
Tomorrow we fly to the Ndola, the Copperbelt and the Mufulira church where we plan to dedicate the new building.

Michigan Bishop to Voters: Abortion can Only be Outweighed by an Evil Equivalent "in Number and Kind
By Kathleen Gilbert
SAGINAW, Michigan, November 3, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Bishop Robert J. Carlson of Saginaw issued a pastoral letter in the eve of the U.S. campaign season, urging Catholics to heed the "special burden on the conscience" imposed by the destruction of innocent life, particularly through abortion.
In the first section of his letter, Bishop Carlson poses the question: "Isn't abortion just one issue among others in this election?" He answers, "No. Any serious Catholic voter must recognize abortion as the premier threat to human rights and dignity in our day."
Because abortion consists in the murder of about one million unborn children every year, says the bishop, "A Catholic can, in good conscience, vote for a pro-choice candidate only if other issues outweigh this one in number and in kind."
For example, the abortion issue outweighs the death penalty because abortion ends a far greater number of human lives than the handful killed by the death penalty; furthermore, abortion is a graver evil since it targets only the most innocent lives, rather than those found guilty of capital crimes in a court of law.
Bishop Carlson notes that there are other serious issues voters must weigh in the presidential election; however, "a Catholic needs to recognize that all issues do not have the same weight.
"Can any other issue, or combination of issues, attain sufficient gravity to outweigh the directly willed destruction of 1 million children every year?"
Turning his attention to Proposal 2, the state ballot initiative to allow the destruction of embryos in embryonic stem cell (ESC) research, the bishop affirms that Catholics have a clear duty to reject the proposal.
The bishop condemns Proposal 2 first of all for being "scientifically unnecessary," constrasting the proven track record of adult stem cell research in medicine against the minimal promise of ESC research. He also criticizes the legislation for "going too far" by prohibiting any restraint on such research.
But most importantly, he says, Proposal 2 is based on "morally reprehensible" principles. He quotes one commentator who summed up the danger to human dignity in ESC research: "If a principle is established by which some indisputably human lives do not warrant the protections traditionally associated with the dignity of the human person - because of their size, location, dependency, level of development, burdensomeness to others - it would seem that there are numerous other candidates for the application of the principle," including the handicapped and elderly.
"Finding cures for diseases is surely a great good," writes Bishop Carlson. "But ... there are some things we must never do, like sacrificing our children's lives to extend our own health and well-being."
Last week, Michigan's Governor Jennifer Granholm came under fire from a local bishop when she claimed, as a Catholic, that supporting ESC research is "pro-life."

How You Can Grow Your Customer Base With Instagram
When considering your Instagram marketing tactics, don't forget that your primary goal with any strategy is to get more customers or clients. Failing to leverage your Instagram content for this purpose is a missed opportunity and will result in wasted time and effort.
If your ultimate objective is to get more customers, use these tips for leveraging Instagram to do just that.
Grow Your Following
Your first goal will be to grow your following. Without followers, you can't use your account for much of anything. Reaching a certain following on your platform isn't easy, but it can be done with the right tactics. Consider applying some of these strategies:
- Buy Followers: When you need rapid growth, buying real Instagram followers is an excellent strategy. Just be sure you purchase them from a quality organization that will use real followers rather than bots. This will prevent you from experiencing some of the horror stories you've probably heard about buying followers.
- Post Consistently: Instagram users follow accounts that post steady, consistent content. Otherwise, they'll become annoyed by brands or forget them altogether—neither of which is a good option for you. Set up a schedule, trying to post at least a few times per week in order to establish yourself among the Instagram realm.
- Use Hashtags: If you want to grow your following organically, using popular hashtags will take you there. Trending hashtags make your posts searchable and it's more likely that your posts will come up to meet the needs of your target audience.
- Host Contests: A study from Tailwind showed that brands who used contests grew their following 70 percent more than those who did not. This is also a good pre-cursor to turning your followers into customers, particularly if you're giving away your products or offering a discount.
- Cross-Promote: Use your other social media platforms to gain more attention on your Instagram. This helps you reach a wider audience and drive more traffic to your Instagram page.
These are just a few of many strategies to generate the growth you seek on Instagram. Once you've hit a respectable number, turning followers into customers is easier than ever.
Engage with Your Target Audience
While you're growing your following, engagement will be your best friend. Not only will it encourage more followers and a more loyal audience, but it will also help you find the customers that are most likely to buy.
"The followers who engage with you the most on social media are usually your most committed audience, and will be the most likely to make a purchase from you farther down the line," reasons Julia Belkin of ThriveHive.
If you've purchased real Instagram followers, they'll do some of the engagement for you. You should also spend at least a few minutes each day thumbing through your posts, liking and making comments as you go.
"The more you 'like' comments, answer questions, and follow users back, the more your followers will continue to engage with you, and the higher the Instagram algorithm will place your content on the feed," Belkin says, underscoring the importance of high searchability in generating more customers.
Use a Call to Action
Many Instagram users forget all about the call to action in their posts because links are not quite as accessible on Instagram. Still, the CTA is an essential part of driving customers to your website and therefore generating sales.
According to Molly Marshall, blogger and marketer, there are two types of Instagram calls to action to be aware of. The first is when you encourage your followers to engage with your post. This is great for increasing your following and reminding customers why they enjoy your brand.
When it comes time to land the sale, Marshall says, you want to use the "bio link CTA," which directs people to the link in your bio.
"Ultimately, you don't own your Instagram audience (Instagram does!) so it is wise to move people to where you do business, your website," Marshall says. "I do this by separating my Bio Link CTA from my main caption with a solid black line."
This makes your CTA stand out and increases the likelihood that people will take the extra steps to find your link. Typically, this link will go to your website, hopefully a product page. You can switch up this link so that it matches whatever promotion you're running.
Leverage Instagram Shoppable Posts
Eligible businesses can use Shoppable posts to allow consumers to make purchases from your website without leaving Instagram. It reduces the steps users have to take to buy an item they like, which will naturally increase your sales.
"When you feature your product in such a way as to exhibit the ways in which it can be used, it makes people want to have it for themselves," explains an article from NowMarketingGroup. "And, the easier you make it for them to buy, the more likely it is they will."
This tool is essential to a strong customer connection. Research shows that some brands have seen an increase in sales traffic of 1,416 percent, while it's more common to see 20 percent. Either way, that's a significant bet considering the fact that it's a free service.
Be Likeable
Consumers connect with brands on Instagram because they find them useful, entertaining, and valuable. If you're not likeable, you'll not only lose your following but also fail to draw any sales whatsoever.
"Being likeable is more difficult on Instagram than it is on any other social media platform because you're working with only one media – images," says an article from Wishpond, underscoring the importance of photography knowledge and creativity.
Wishpond lists off several keys to being likeable, including being authentic, using filters, editing your images, and showing your products as they are in real life.
Most importantly, be yourself. "Personalizing your brand is an essential part of making your business likeable," the article says. "Feature fun photos and videos of your employees. Give your Instagrammers a behind the scenes look at your company. Make a video of your organization doing fun stuff."
When you're a likeable brand and you've reached your target audience, getting them to engage and purchase your products is the next logical step.

JUST SAYING!Just saying good morning - smiling - as you do
When some has pulled up - stood standing
Just asking '' are you all right - mate - love? ''
Telling a joke - LOL'n at your self
Self mockery - encouraging banter at your self
Winging with others at the weather - lateness of the loop bus!
When out walking - coming close to another walking towards you!
Stopping while saying: '' I'm magnetized!'' ; He - she, brackets a grin!
Passes bye - with a grin that will last and last!
WE can spread a little joy - this day - afternoon - evening - night!
Can help some names unknowns - life a little better - show some like you care's!
Just saying!

| 8.7°C Dublin
Irish oil and gas exploration firm Petroceltic is to seek a High Court injunction preventing one of its shareholders from convening an extraordinary general meeting.
The action is against Swiss hedge fund Worldview and arises out of its bid to call a EGM in London on October 5th. Worldview holds 29% of Petroceltic's share capital.
At the High Court in Dublin today, barrister Andrew Fitzpatrick, counsel for Petroceltic, said the company was seeking an injunction restraining what his client claimed was an "unlawful" meeting.
Mr Fitzpatrick said this latest egm was the fourth sought this year by Worldview which was believed to be engaged in a "campaign" against Petroceltic.
He said Petroceltic had written to Worldview asking it not to convene the latest EGM but Worldview had failed to comply with their request.
Mr Fitzpatrick told the court Petroceltic was seeking an injunction preventing the shareholder vote from taking place. He said the proposed EGM was causing difficulties for Petroceltic and its shareholders.
He said Worldview had put two resolutions before the egm seeking shareholder disapproval of Petroceltic's decision to issue senior secured bonds announced last June or approving Petroceltic incurring new borrowings or issuing new debt securities.
Mr Justice Max Barrett granted Petroceltic permission to serve notice of the injunction application on Worldview and made the proceedings returnable to Wednesday.

I did not write the following Post but it is good to share the ideas of others.
Can Muslims Watch Porn, Do Sex with Toys & Do Masturbation?
We received the following email from a Muslim reader – who has been mentally tormented over his dilemma about sex with toys and watching pornography. His name has been initialized to maintain privacy. I have expressed my view on the whole range of sexual dilemma, including masturbation Muslim youths face.
MZ Khan wrote:
I am not married therefore Is viewing porn films allowed in Islam & sex with toys allowed??
MA Khan's response:Dear MZ,
- Thank you for inquiring about your sexual dilemma.
There is nothing in Islam that says that you cannot watch porn or do sex with toys. In Islam, you cannot have sex with other Muslim married women – for which you should be stoned to death. If you have sex with unmarried Muslim girl, you will be subjected to 80 lashes. If you do get involved with another man in homosexual acts, you will be forgiven – if you repent.
However, you can do sex with Kafir women any way you want. You can attack the Kafirs, kill their men and then capture the women and have sex with them. You can also kidnap them and keep them as slaves as many as you want – who will do all the household work and also provide sex to you. Allah has sent down a divine sanction to Muslims for acquiring slave women for sex by waging wars against the infidels and from spoils or booty obtained from it:
O Prophet! surely We have made lawful to you your wives whom you have given their dowries, and those whom your right hand possesses out of those whom Allah has given to you as prisoners of war.. [Q 33:50]
These being the injunctions of Islam – I do not see much reason as to why you should be worried about watching porn or have sex with toys. However, you should be able to watch porn without any restriction. So is the case with sex with toys. However, only thing you should be worried while watching porn as to whether the woman you is are watching is a Muslim or not. I do not think there are many Muslim women doing porn movies or anything like that. But I also believe that if a Muslim woman becomes porn-star, she does not remain Muslim any more. So, you should have nothing to worry about watching porn. About sex-toys, there is absolutely nothing to worry. Just fantasize it as a infidel woman, with whom you are allowed to do sex any way you want.
As I myself have grown up a Muslim, another dilemma Muslim youths face is about masturbation. There nothing specifically said about masturbation in the Quran. However, there is one hadith in which the prophet had prohibited some of his Sahabas from doing coitus interruptus with the captured women while on a Jihad expedition. Coitus interruptus means throwing the semen outside after sex – not to the women pregnant. The reason was that the semen should not be wasted which could produce children. Production of Muslim children was very critical to add the number to small Muslim community at that critical stage of Islam. However, while doing masturbation there is not scope to impregnate anybody. Young men keep loosing semen all the time through wet dreams. Muslim population is too big and Muslims have been producing more than they can handle.
So I do not see any reason that you should not be able to do masturbation. Furthermore, many moderate Muslims have been urging to delete hadiths from Islam altogether. So, you should not be worried about that dubious hadith on Coitus Interruptus. Using condoms to limit pregnancy – which is the ideal example of Coitus Interruptus – has become quite common in the Muslims world.
Last but not the least, Muslims are one of the peoples most active in masturbation and watching porn in the world. Their homosexual engagements are also equally high.

No, you can't eat it, but you need to "sandwich" your Bar Mitzvah. Here's the truth: you're focused on the BIG event, the Saturday morning Shabbat service and the celebration to follow. But it's likely you'll be hosting out-of-town guests and so a full WEEKEND of events should be on the menu. Here's some food for thought:
Whether or not you are attending services that evening, you may choose to plan a Shabbat dinner for extended and visiting family. Consider these factors:
- Hosting at home is convenient but consider whether that feels like an easy solution, or added stress. Will you cook, or hire a caterer? You could also hold Shabbat dinner at your synagogue (check early to see if the room will be available prior to or after services.)
- Choosing a restaurant? Find out if private dining is available and whether you can establish a set menu.
- Make sure your dinner timeframe allows for reaching synagogue through Friday evening traffic.
When you hold your service dictates when you can schedule a celebration. If your service is held in the morning, a Kiddush luncheon in the afternoon, and a celebration follows that evening, the whole day is covered. But if your schedule shapes up differently, think about the following:
- If your celebration takes place in the afternoon, what will you do with out-of-town guests that evening? Think about venues for group dinner or an activity (like a sporting event) to keep the festive feelings going.
- If your bar mitzvah is a Havdalah service, plan for the early part of the day to get out-of-town guests connected and socializing. Perhaps a "family reunion" luncheon or a casual meet up can be planned at the hotel where most guests are staying.
Whew, you've made it! Remember to send your visiting guests off in style with a farewell brunch or luncheon.
- Choose a venue on the way to the airport, or host at your home or the hotel where most guests are staying.
- Repurpose Saturday celebration decorations to outfit the Sunday gathering.
- Be sure to thank everyone for coming from far and wide to celebrate with your family!
And lastly, for any of these sandwich events, think about whether you'll want photography or videography at these smaller family-focused meals or outings. Need help planning the weekend? Reach out to one of our preferred party planners for smooth sailing the whole weekend.

Helping Deaf Dogs Live Long & Happy Lives
Every other month, our pet expert and Canine Coaches dog trainer, Jill Bailey, will answer your pet questions. Email her at email@example.com. For more information on Canine Coaches visit caninecoaches.com.
I recently had a friend's family adopt a deaf dog, and she asked me why I have never written a column about dogs with special needs. Honestly, it's because I don't have a lot of knowledge in that area, but I felt it was time for a change. As a result, I've researched what causes deafness in dogs and how to work with deaf dogs because of my friend's encouragement.
There are many things that can cause deafness in dogs, untreated and chronic ear infections, injury, old age, but in many cases it is hereditary, as many breeds are predisposed. As an owner or caregiver, discuss everything with your veterinarian to assure that you are treating any issue or problem you notice as soon as possible — the more information you can give your vet, the better they can treat it. If necessary, please seek the advice of a specialist.
Regardless of what caused your pup's hearing loss, deaf dogs can live long and happy lives if you are prepared and willing to put in the time to work with the dog. A book that just came out this year on training deaf dogs is called, "Living with a Deaf Dog."
Like humans, a deaf dog can sometimes increase the sensitivity of their other senses due to the loss of one. It's important to keep in mind that a deaf dog will not be able to respond to any verbal cues; I believe in positive-reinforcement training, so dogs can still learn to respond to hand cues, which are just as effective as verbal cues. For example, I've taught my dog to sit just by holding my index finger up.
Remember that in training, we don't start with the verbal cue but with the behavior: Once you are getting the desired behavior, you can add a visual cue just as easily as a verbal one. Also, you must keep them on a leash or in a fenced in area at all times. Although I would recommend this with any dog, you have to be more cognizant of this when working with a deaf dog.
If you are ready to devote time, energy and love, you are ready for a new dog, regardless of the special needs that pup may have — all dogs need training. These are incredible creatures, and I'm in awe at what I continue to learn about them. Consider adoption this holiday season and give a dog a forever home … you won't regret it.
I wanted to be sure to remind everyone that at this time of the year, when decorations are going up and family is celebrating, your animals will be a big part of the festivities! Many aspects of our holiday celebrations are toxic to dogs: chocolate, poinsettia, mistletoe, holly, potpourri, etc. Be sure to keep wires and ornaments out of your animal's reach. Follow the general rule that anything that isn't your dogs' food or treats – they should not have it.
Have a safe and happy holiday season!
