NAFTA's Off the Chopping Block—For Now
The Background
NAFTA's been on POTUS's chopping block since he first stepped foot on the campaign trail, calling it "a disaster for [the U.S.A.]"—but 45 is giving the "worst trade deal in the history of the world" another shot thanks to a call from our PM. On Wednesday, the White House said Trump was on the verge of signing an executive order that would've pulled the U.S. from the agreement, causing Canada and Mexico to freak the off out. But Trudeau called Trump and pulled on his heartstrings, telling him it would cause "pain for families" so POTUS agreed to talk it out. CBC
Why You Should Care
NAFTA's been around for so long that many of us don't remember what life was like before it arrived in '94. Since its inception, it's been a pillar of our economy, creating jobs from coast to coast. Trudeau explained how vital it is, saying there are "an awful lot of jobs, an awful lot of industries right now that have been developed under the NAFTA context." If Trump successfully pulls out (is pulling out ever successful?), it would have major effects on finances and families across the entire continent.
The Gist
Our personable prime minister may have saved NAFTA (for now) with an educational phone call to the president.

Seventy-five years ago, we brought our family recipes and know-how from Asturias in Spain to the little town of Lugareño in Cuba, and then to America.
Good food has a way of reconnecting us with earlier times and far-away places. Comforting smells coming from the kitchen, happy days and the rhythm of festive family gatherings. Lugareño sausages in all their rich red variety will satisfy your nostalgia, your body and your soul!
All Lugareño products are first cooked, then slowly cured. They are ready-to-eat for breakfast, lunch or dinner, as a snack or as an ingredient in ethnic cooked dishes.

Red River, New Mexico is like greeting an old friend every time I roll into the place.
The place itself is not much longer than a mile. I should know as I run the length four times every summer morning I'm there. As far as the width, oh, maybe a couple of extended throws of a rock would cover it.
There's only 450 year-round residents. There's no high school, no fast food, no real movie theater, and one grocery store. And yet they come every year, and have kept coming for more than 90 years.
"I have a 12-hour drive in front of me and 106 degrees waiting on me when I get to Austin," said a man in line with me one cool morning to get coffee. "I don't know why I'm leaving."
At some point, the real world beckons. But it's soothing to put it off for an extended weekend or even a week. The fortunate have cabins and can make it a second home for a summer.
A small sign at the door of the Candy Crate Fudge and Candies store just about says it all: "Open 10 a.m.-9 p.m., but if it's past 9 p.m. and the OPEN sign is still on, come on in."
That says Red River, New Mexico, which is like greeting an old friend every time I roll into the place. The more things change, the more that little mountain town stays the same. And that's just the way we like it.
The trek, a lot of us have memorized by now. Head 275 miles northwest out of Amarillo. Before that is the 80 miles of nothingness between Clayton, New Mexico, and Springer broken up only by the Gladstone Mercantile store that splits the difference.
Since the restroom is only for customers, I'll buy a soft drink to get some relief. Then it's on for lunch at the Dairy Delite in Springer. Climb into the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, and then to the Carson National Forest.
It won't be long until there's Eagle Nest Lake, and then 9,600-feet Bobcat Pass. There's seven winding turns before the former little mining town appears from 1,000 feet above in all its simple, welcoming glory with 70-degree highs and 40-degree lows.
As the director of the Red River Chamber of Commerce once told me, "It's almost like you're coming home."
That's the appeal. For many, no matter the age, Red River has been an annual destination for as long as memories last. I've gone every summer for at least the past 15 to a family reunion, when someone got the bright idea we needed to go elsewhere after sweltering in southwest Oklahoma.
But I've been going for so long before, that it's hard to remember when I wasn't. I'm hardly alone. A guest preacher at the Red River Community Center said he's been coming to these parts annually for 40 years, and he lives in Central Texas.
Of those long weekenders who come to Red River, 64 percent have averaged eight trips. An estimated 300,000 come to Red River in the summer to beat the heat, soak in the mountain beauty and realize all over again that while society moves at a breakneck pace, there are places like this one that don't move at all.
If the charm of home is its unchanging nature, then so is Red River. The only chain is a Best Western that's one block off Main Street.
The restaurants have names like Shotgun Willie's and Sundance, Texas Red's and Dairy Bar. The lodges go by Riverside and Alpine, Copper King and Golden Eagle. Shop at the Pioneer Emporium or the Red River Trading Co., where it's Christmas 365 days a year.
The names are virtually unchanging, and often the people who work there are too, at the 20 lodges, 16 restaurants and assorted shops.
In winter, there's skiing, of course. But I've been to Red River just once in winter. The summer and fall appeal are varied. There's fishing, hiking, biking, Jeep tours, horseback riding, go-karts, and tubing down the grassy ski run. There's bluegrass music concerts and wine tasting.
But the lure of Red River is in the pace – the "42" dominoes game in the middle of the day, reading a good book on the porch already into that second cup of coffee, strolling the sidewalk, leashed dog in hand.
I've always likened it to Mayberry in the Mountains. It's a place, like it says on a sign near one of the stools at Mountain Treasures: "What Happens on the Porch, Stays on the Porch."
Every year, thousands of us can hear the siren song calling us back, calling us back to nostalgia and familiarity. A rustic sign on the edge of Red River heading home reads: "…Until Next Time."
In a way, I just give an understanding nod.

He did more than coach at Buchholz, he "built" the program.
Bob Smith deserves an apology from the Buchholz High School administration. My son played for him for 4 years and coached with him for 2 years, so it is safe to say we know him to be a dedicated, loyal, knowledgeable coach and friend.
He did more than coach at Buchholz, he "built" the program. He built that field from a sand pile to the fine facility it is today by organizing fund-raisers and soliciting donations during his "free" time. Why the principal should be swayed by the obviously true story of Bob standing up to a rude, arrogant, newcomer to the University of Florida is beyond me.
UF Athletic Director Jeremy Foley should be thanking Bob Smith for discovering the flawed character of his new coach and alerting him to possible problems down the road. Instead, Smith is asked to resign. What kind of message does this send the students of our community?

On February 7, Mayor Jim Lienhoop had the opportunity for a private meeting with Indiana Governor Eric Holcomb and State Representative Milo Smith to discuss issues and concerns. Mayor Lienhoop used the opportunity to welcome Governor Holcomb to office by presenting him with two gifts from Columbus, a copy of the Thomas Schiff coffee table book on Columbus, Indiana and coasters displaying 4 iconic Columbus buildings, which the Governor immediately began using on his office coffee table.
The first topic of discussion was the impact of the expected increase in railroad traffic in late 2018 along the downtown and State Road 46 intersection. Mayor Lienhoop shared the results of work done by City staff and volunteers to collect data, select options for a solution, and those solutions presented to INDOT. Mayor Lienhoop emphasized the impact an estimated 20 trains a day through Columbus would have on residents, local businesses, schools, emergency services and daily life. Of all RR crossings between Louisville and Indianapolis, the crossing at SR 46 is the most impacted on the line, with twice as many delays as the next highest impacted crossing. Because SR 46 is a state highway, INDOT has authority over the roadway and will be instrumental in helping to fund whatever solution is put in place.
Mayor Lienhoop shared the frustrations experienced by the City with the state's process of providing budget revenue estimates for local governments, and the resulting restrictions placed on local units such as Columbus during budget preparation.
The Governor and Mayor Lienhoop discussed the statewide focus promoted by the Governor to deal with substance abuse and drug addiction. Mayor Lienhoop shared that Bartholomew County has started a new initiative through Healthy Communities Council and offered the community's help wherever possible.
Finally, Mayor Lienhoop expressed the City's support for a proposal by Indiana University to add a Masters of Architecture degree housed in Columbus. The Indiana Commission on Higher Education will be voting on this proposal at their March meeting. Mayor Lienhoop talked about the 70+ architectural buildings, landscapes and public art pieces in Columbus and the importance of promoting the design and culture represented by these items. The group discussed the importance of our community's partnership with IU through the IU Center of Art and Design, which is in downtown Columbus. A Master's degree in Architecture in Columbus would continue to grow the design heritage that community leaders have spent decades building in our community.

Chaminade-Madonna began the turnaround to contender status this past season under first-year coach Jason Milgrom.
On Wednesday, Milgrom and the Lions celebrated as seven of their seniors signed with colleges.
The most prominent was safety Justin Thomas, who officially declared his intention to attend West Point and play for Army. At 6-2, 180-pounds, Thomas should make a quick impact for the Cadets' secondary. Thomas had 71 tackles, including 37 solo, and had two forced fumbles and two recoveries this past season while helping Chaminade post a 7-3 record and reach the Class 3A regional semifinals.
Chaminade also had quarterback Kole Stealy and offensive lineman Alex Feliz each sign with Northern Michigan. Tight end Trevor Taylor signed with Benedictine University and defensive back Joshua Matthews and wide receiver Edward Mayo each signed with John Carroll University.
Kicker/punter Austin Laszewski signed with the University of Louisville as a preferred walk-on.

All children must be checked in and out by a parent/guardian before/during and after the service.
As always, children are welcome in all of our worship services
Creation Kids Worship Bags are available for children in worship. Each bag contains resources to help them fully participate in worship.
We believe that children's participation in worship is important to their spiritual formation. When children worship with adults, they are empowered to develop a sense of belonging to a faith community. The gift of a church where children are engaged in worship encourages each of us to examine how we engage in worship, our faith, and one another. Children remind us there is not a right way, or one way, to worship and challenge us to be open to the spontaneity of the Holy Spirit. Children remind us that God is present in the messy-ness of our lives, giving us opportunity to reexamine the meaning of sacred and holy.

- Overview
Ballistic is the free mmofps developed by Aquiris Game Studio and playable on Facebook. This AAA quality shooter features two rival factions, the Smokes and the MFA, fighting it out over control of a valuable energy source. The game's maps aren't your usual fps warehouse or industrial park. Instead, the frantic action takes place in real world settings such as a museum or shopping mall. The graphics are highly detailed and the game uses the Unity engine. Maps in Ballistic tend to be smaller in scale than most other shooters, thus emphasizing quick, brutal battles and a faster gameplay experience. An average match should take place within five to ten minutes.
This browser-based mmofps has the standard bells and whistles players love. Match types encompass the normal deathmatch, king of the hill, and capture points. Players can customize their character's appearance, skills, and weapons. There is no set class in Ballistic. Instead, players can choose different loadouts to bring to the match. Players can level up and earn credits to purchase guns and enhancements. Career points are spent on a skill tree that enhances your combat ability, such as being able to use a SMG as a secondary weapon or inflict silent kills with your knife.
The different loadouts in Ballistic offer their own unique perks. Players can choose perks such as the ability to do additional damage with specific weapon types or being able to throw two grenades at the same time. If you wish to drag your foe down with you in defeat, you can choose a last stand perk that allows you to take a few last shots before you respawn or the perk that allows you to drop a grenade when you respawn. Truly vindictive players will choose both perks to give enemy players a big surprise.
While there is a cash shop in Ballistic, this does not translate into pay-to-win. The game is designed to be equally fair to all players, even to those who continue to play for free. The new guns that players can unlock in the cash shop are not any more powerful than the weapons available for free. Players will also be available to purchase new perks and avatar customization options. If players do not wish to partake of the cash shop, they can eventually earn the different weapons and perks through gameplay. The cash shop only gives those who want the new weapons an option to get them now. All in all, Ballistic serves up a heaping dose of quick, intense first person shooter combat in a highly detailed setting without the need for any pesky downloading.

I was honored to be at Dr. Glory Van Scott's Birthday Party at Dizzy's Club Coca Cola. She is a producer, performer, educator and civic artist. You can see her bio here. When she told me her birthday was on June 1st, I told her my birthday is July 1st, and she told me her mother's birthday is July 1st! Well, it's just something that made me happy personally. A lot of people were invited and came to the birthday party. Many of them were performers, musicians, artists, writers, art supporters, etc. The music performance was by Lew Tabackin (tenor sax), Howard Alden (guitar), Kenny Washington (drums), Ron Carter (bass), and of course, George Wein (piano). The music by these world-top level musicians was great without doubt, but what I would like to write about here is about the young performers Glory teaches; Dr. Glory's Youth Theater. You can get their information here. They have a great teacher and are taught about their culture and history, and how to bring them together into a beautiful form at such young age. I am a visual person, and I see kids playing instruments often but never really get a chance to see kids verbally challenging themselves, so it was really fresh & impressive to me. What was I doing when I was their age (around 15)? Yes, I was a pitcher of a softball team, I was studying at school, etc, but important things like about my own culture, relationship between my country and others, difference and similarities between cultures, or I should just say "about people", didn't come to a realization until I was like 23, no, 28, well, maybe until recently (not gonna mention my current age). The fact that I got out of my home, Japan, and came to USA helped me think about that, too. What those kids are taught is going to be something really precious in their life. Those birthday gifts brought by people for Glory are actually books that will be donated for kids also, requested by Glory. Those kids are blessed to have a teacher like Glory and Glory is blessed to have such beautiful kids. Happy Birthday Glory!

Today's climate change reflects the warming of Earth's surface based on temperature records dating back to the 1880s. Climate change is the result of human activities that emit greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions such as carbon dioxide. The concentrations of carbon dioxide and other GHGs are currently higher than any other time in the past 650,000 years. These greenhouse gases stay in the atmosphere and act like a warm blanket by holding in heat — hence the term 'global warming.'
The term 'global warming' is often used interchangeably with the term 'climate change.' The Earth's climate is changing as a result of global warming. Recent research by scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, the University of California, Merced and the National Center for Atmospheric Research, shows that California temperatures have jumped statewide by more than 2.1 degrees Fahrenheit between 1915 and 2000.
One of the biggest effects of rising temperatures is a shrinking Sierra snow pack. Sierra snowmelt is the largest source of California's drinking and irrigation water. Disruption to the water supply means more droughts and less water for our cities and for farmers to grow their crops.
Higher temperatures also increase air pollution. Smog and soot that form from vehicle and power plant emissions pose a threat to public health, especially for children and seniors. Other effects include more frequent wildfires threatening our forests and our homes, such as those recently experienced by Southern California.
A study by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) estimates the world's seas will rise more than 4.6 feet if global warming remains unchecked. This means that the coastlines of both San Francisco and Oakland could ultimately be under water and at risk for increased erosion.
In California, rising sea levels will cause increased salt water intrusion into the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, potentially putting two-thirds of California's water supply in jeopardy. In the capital city of Sacramento, and other cities in the Central Valley, the number of days per year over 95º F will increase from an average of 18 days/year to as much as 110 days/year.
Climate change is a serious threat to our health, our environment, and economy. The dangers of climate change include, but are not limited to, rising sea levels and shrinking snowpack, extreme drought and increased wildfires, extreme temperatures, catastrophic weather, species loss, increased disease, reduced growing seasons, threatened cultures, changing forests and loss of biodiversity. The dangers of climate change are cause for immediate action. If we do not begin now, more substantial, more disruptive, and more expensive change will be needed in the future.

The 2018 Winter Olympics are under way at Pyeongchang, and one of the most polarizing sports is back: curling. The stone-throwing sport has a lot of momentum in viewership, and it's not hard to see why with the amount of precision it takes to accurately shoot and strength needed to sweep. Still, many people look at it as a winter lawn game and not a sport. What do you think?
People like to point and laugh at curling, but if they ever stepped onto the ice, they would know it is as difficult as any sport at the Olympics.
It's one thing to just hurl a stone down the ice, but it takes precision to place a stone in one spot in the middle of the ice. Then, there are the angles you have to play, avoiding guards and bouncing stones off one another to set-up the perfect guard.
And if you think sweeping is as easy as it is at home, you're in for a painful surprise. Curling takes strength and precision to be successful. It is a legitimate sport.
>> 6 reasons curling is the best Olympic sport
If curling is a sport, so is sweeping my kitchen floor. We're talking about glorified shuffleboard on ice. Curling should have never been included at the Winter Olympics. It doesn't take much skill to throw a stone and have it bounce around to score. This is a game that belongs on unused hockey rinks, not on the Olympic stage. Curling isn't a sport.

Building My Perfect Backcountry Tripod
Over the past few years I'd been using a Manfrotto ballhead and carbon fiber tripod combination that had really begun to frustrate me in the field. Earlier this year I decided to invest in a new tripod and ballhead that would hopefully work much better for me, without the frustration. Before I started researching which components to buy, I figured out exactly what requirements I needed this new tripod to meet, and came up with the following:
You might notice that none of my requirements involve price. I learned a long time ago that if I want to be happy with a purchase, I need to make sure to get exactly what I want without worrying about the price, even if that means waiting a little longer to save up some extra money. I also knew that meeting these requirements wasn't going to be cheap.
Here's a rundown of each component that I ended up getting. Since I've now been using this tripod in the field for much of the year I will also give a little feedback on how each component has worked out for me.
Ballhead: Acratech GP-s
After plenty of research I decided to go with the Acratech GP-s Ballhead. There are quite a few features of this ballhead that I liked. The open design of the ball makes keeping it clean and working smoothly a breeze. This especially helpful for me since it will frequently be in contact with sand and dust in the desert. There is also no dust-attracting grease required. The open design of the ball also allows a lot more movement compared other ballheads on the market. The knobs are coated in rubber and are all different shapes and sizes making them easy to operate. This feature-filled ballhead weighs in at under a pound and supports up to 25lbs. It's also worth mentioning that this ballhead has a panning base and offers the ability to function as a gimbal head and a leveling panoramic head.
Quick Review: I absolutely love this ballhead! It's so easy to operate in the field and never gets dirt trapped in the ball, so it's always smooth to adjust. I also love the extra movement allowed by the open design. This piece of gear is very tough and has survived getting knocked around quite well, with only a few nicks and scratches in the powder-coating. Of course, it's also lightweight which is great for carrying around on my backpack. I have used the panning base for a few panoramas and it has worked well. I even used the gimbal feature once when panning my camera vertically to create this image. I would highly recommend this ballhead for outdoor nature and adventure photographers.
Camera Plate: Really Right Stuff L-Bracket
When I was deciding on a ballhead, I made sure to also look for one that used the Acra-Swiss mounting system. I was tired of dealing with the loose fitting Manfrotto plates during the last few years and I wanted a system that locked the camera down tight. One other thing I didn't like about my previous tripod was having to flop my camera 90 degrees into a notch when taking vertical photos, which I frequently do. This would throw the balance of my tripod off-center and make it unstable. With an L-Bracket I could just flip the camera 90 degrees on it's side and still have it perfectly centered over the top of the tripod.
Quick Review: There's not much to the really Right Stuff L-Bracket. It's just an aluminum bracket that mounts on your camera and stays there. I can say that it doesn't get in the way of any of the functions on your camera and doesn't block access to any of the ports. It's lightweight and doesn't add too much bulk to the camera. It is noticeable that it is there, but you will quickly get used to it. This bracket is tough and helps protect your camera a little. I'm afraid to say that my camera gets used and abused. It gets knocked around when I'm climbing over boulders and has even fallen off my tripod. The bracket has lost some of it's powder coating, but has held up well to the abuse. I'll never go without an L-bracket again!
Tripod Legs: Feisol Tournament Tripod CT-3442 Rapid
When I first started looking for some new tripod legs, I originally went to research Gitzo tripods. They are well-known for making the best tripods out there, so I assumed they would have what I was looking for. They made a few tripods that were close to what I wanted, but I would soon find out that Feisol actually had this model that matched my requirements even closer. I know quite a few people with these Feisol tripods, and all of them have nothing but good things to say about them, so I wasn't worried about the quality. This tripod extends to 54.33" without the center column, which was actually one of the tallest I was able to find (that didn't weigh a ton), and it collapses down to 18.9" which was also one of the shortest I was able to find. It accomplishes this feat because the legs fold back 180 degrees over the ballhead. This not only allows the tripod to fold down very small, it also has the added benefit of protecting the head. Even with all of these features, this tripod weighs in at only 2.3lbs, which makes it one of the lightest full-sized tripods I was able to find, too. The legs also have the twist-locks that I was looking for.
Quick Review: I've owned a few tripods over the years, but I have to say that this set of legs are the best I have used, by far! They are tough, easy to operate and even easy to clean. They extend pretty tall, even for a tall guy like me, but still fold up shorter than most other tripods in this class. I like that the legs bold back 180 degrees which has helped protect my ballhead from banging against things while hiking. I like the twist-locks better than the flip-locks, even though they are not as frustration-free as I had hoped they would be. I did lose a few of the rubber feet off the bottom of the legs and had an issue with the angle locks at the top of the legs not staying in place, but Feisol was quick to respond to these issues and repaired them under warranty. They even repaired it quickly and sent it back via 2-day shipping so that I could have it in time for a trip. Definitely some of the best customer service that I have dealt with. I will be using some glue or epoxy to keep the rubber feet in place this time. This is another item I would highly recommend to outdoor nature and adventure photographers out there.
To sum things up, I am very pleased with this complete setup. It's lightweight, sturdy, easy to use, rugged, and meets all of my requirements. It wasn't the cheapest option out there, but everything works well together and I can rely on it in the field when I am trying to make images in harsh conditions or difficult to reach locations. As you can see, the tripod also makes for a nice hat rack at camp!
I hope this information is helpful to some of you out there, and if you have any questions, please feel free to leave a comment below and I'll do my best to answer them.

By Matt Smith
DUBAI (Reuters) - Rory McIlroy believes a six-week break from golf to fight a legal case has put him in the ideal shape to end a stunning 2014 season by claiming yet another title at this week's $8 million DP World Tour Championship.
The world number one was crowned the European Tour's money-list winner without playing a shot last week after rivals Sergio Garcia, Jamie Donaldson and Marcel Siem failed to win the $7 million Turkish Airlines Open.
"I feel like I'm probably a little fresher than most of the guys," McIlroy told reporters on Tuesday. "I think there were a few jaded minds and bodies getting off that plane from Turkey the other night.
"Hopefully I can use that to my advantage and put in a good performance. It would be nice to pick up two trophies on Sunday and not just one -- I'm still very motivated to go out there and perform well."
The 25-year-old Northern Irishman's last outing was in early October as he downed clubs to focus on a long-standing legal battle with his former management team, Horizon Sports.
The two parties have failed to reach a settlement and the dispute is set to drag into 2015.
"I'm annoyed it's still going on," said McIlroy. "I can't do anything about it, we tried our best a few weeks ago to come to some sort of resolution and it didn't work.
"I'm better at compartmentalizing stuff that's happening off the course and being able to focus on what's going on on the course."
McIlroy's exploits this season have enabled him to become money-list winner for the second time in three years, bouncing back from a tough 2013 to triumph at the British Open, U.S. PGA Championship, BMW PGA Championship and the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational in Ohio.
"I always feel like I can get better, even if the improvements are not that noticeable," said McIlroy whose Ohio win in August lifted him to the top of the world rankings after a 16-month hiatus.
"You might not be able to see them, they might not be obvious improvements, but there are always things that you can do to try and get better," he added ahead of this week's season-ending tournament that starts on Thursday.

Cremation Process
It is imperative that our pet owners feel confident that their beloved pet has truly been returned to them. This is why we created the following six step process for our private and partitioned cremations to ensure your pet's safe return.
- A stainless steel cremation ID will be selected for your pet with a unique number imprinted on it.
- Your pet will be identified and assigned this cremation ID number by your veterinarian or Memorial Pet Services.
- The cremation ID tag will remain with your pet throughout the cremation process. This tag will be become discolored after the cremation.
- Your pet's cremains and cremation ID tag will be carefully placed in a clear poly bag, which is then placed into a blue velvet pouch (if space permits) and then into an urn of your choice.
- Your pet's name, cremation date and cremation ID number will be attached to the bottom of the urn.
- Your pet's cremains will then be personally returned to you at our memorial center or your veterinarian.
Know that every return of cremains, your pet will be identified at 3 or more different locations within your return.
Our Promise/Guarantee
"We promise to provide the highest standard of pet cremation and after care services available in Wisconsin. We assure pet parents that their pet will be handled with the utmost care, dignity, honor and respect at all times."
"By following our six-step process, we guarantee that the cremated remains returned are those of the pet entrusted to our care."
What does "Private" cremation mean
As there are currently no state regulations for pet cremation, it is very important that you not only understand your options, but also how the crematory you choose will be handling your pet and their aftercare. What one crematory calls something may be completely different at another crematory so please see our cremation definitions under "Services/Cremation Options".
As a Pet Loss Professional Alliance (PLPA) member, we are working very hard to educate veterinarians, as well as the public to ask the right questions. The term Private Cremation is unfortunately misused by many businesses in the profession. Most pet crematories offer a "return of cremains", but what that does not tell you is if your pet is being cremated alone or with other pets. We believe every Private Cremation should be performed by placing only one pet in the crematory. Once that cremation is completed, the cremains are thoroughly removed. Other cremation methods including more than one pet at a time should never be referred to as a Private or Individual Cremation; but rather as a partitioned, segregated or communal cremation. Prior to saying "yes" to return of cremains, ask for a clear definition of each of the options that are available to you. Here are a few other questions you may want to ask your veterinarian and/or crematory.
- How do you keep track of each pet's cremains?
- How and when will my pet's body be picked up?
- Do you offer a witnessed cremation or a visitation?
- Can we witness any part of the cremation process should we choose to be present during their cremation?
- What items can be cremated with my pet?
- How do you guarantee the cremains I receive will be those of my pet, and only my pet?
- Do you guarantee that if I choose to not have my pet's remains returned, the same care and accountability of my pet will be maintained? If yes, how?
- How and when will my pet's remains be returned to me?
- If I choose a Group Cremation, what will happen to my pet's remains?
These final decisions are yours. There are no "right" or "wrong" answers, but there are choices to be made. Your pet gave you unconditional love during their time with you. Please take time for them to ensure that they are treated with the dignity and respect they so deserve.

TAKING part in scientific research should be compulsory, a Manchester professor has claimed.
Leading ethics expert John Harris wants scientific research to become a public duty as important as putting on your seatbelt, getting your child vaccinated or doing jury service.
The professor of bioethics at Manchester University's Institute of Medical Ethics says everyone should be morally obliged to support or take part in medical studies.
While the controversial ethics expert has stopped short of calling for it to be a legal requirement, he says it would be "justifiable" to make it compulsory and it would be up to society to enforce it.
He claims the public should be obliged to participate in low risk trials, such as volunteering to give blood and urine samples for a national database.
Writing in the Journal of Medical Ethics today, Professor Harris also wants to see the Declaration of Helsinki - the ethical grounds for medical research - changed so it would be easier to get patients' consent.
He said: "We are morally obliged to support or participate in scientific research.
I want to change people's attitudes, as many think of scientific research as something to be treated with suspicion, but they should be celebrating its achievements.
"Jury service affects people's lives and freedoms as much as medical research. We are all alive today because of the discoveries of medical research."
Scientists go through a lengthy process of ethics clearance, recruiting patients and then getting consent before they are allowed to carry out their trial.
Professor Harris says research is often viewed as "Frankenstein science".
He wants the regulations to be changed to assume patients want to take part in studies, to speed up the process for researchers.
"The consent regulations are too rigid. If I was asked to do jury service, I wouldn't have to give fully informed consent," he added.
The ethics expert has previously created a storm for suggesting the NHS should buy organs from willing donors to save the lives of patients needing a transplant.
Should medical testing be compulsory for everyone? Have your say.

The road north from Vancouver to Whistler is paved with good intentions, but not nearly enough passing lanes. The Sea-to-Sky Highway winds high above Howe Sound, past Bowen, Gambier and Anvil islands; past ferries and freighters and barge-burdened tugs; past the chill plunge of Shannon Falls and fly-sized rock climbers high up the brooding face of the Stawamus Chief at Squamish.
Her name is Rhona Martin of Dunlop, Scotland. On ice, she barks orders like a gunnery sergeant, and slings stones like a giant killer. She lists her occupation as housewife, and her hobbies - when not crushing the gold medal hopes of Kelley Law's dream team - as swimming and working out.
Canadians have never needed banana peels as a cure for rare displays of over-confidence; ice works well enough. It was ice last week on the speed-skating oval and in Salt Lake City's figure-skating arena that momentarily flattened Canada's self-described "best ever" Winter Olympic team.
After the heroic row to the finish by the Canadian men's four last Saturday, after the photo finish showed they'd failed, by a mere 8-100ths of a second, to catch Great Britain, Buffy Williams walked as close to the Olympic medal podium as security would permit to witness a silver medal being draped over her husband Barney's head.
The earliest athletic body organized to administer sport was the Montreal Amateur Athletic Association (MAAA). Formed in 1881, it comprised clubs for lacrosse, swimming and bicycling. The first national organization was the Amateur Athletic Association of Canada, founded in 1884.
Saskatchewan Sports Hall of Fame, in Regina, captures the rich sports history of the province. It was established in 1966 to honour outstanding athletes, championship teams and sports personalities. Its present location, the old land titles building, is protected as a heritage site by the province.
