In Germany, it's tradition to gather around a big bonfire over Easter to mark the end of a long, dark winter. But activists say these blazes often become death traps for small animals like hedgehogs and rabbits.
Animal rights campaigners have urged Germans to refrain from lighting fires to celebrate Easter this year, warning the custom could be fatal for small species.
Gathering around a bonfire on the eve of Easter Sunday is a popular tradition in Northern Europe that dates back to pagan times. In many parts of Germany, the ritual, which likely began as a way to greet the spring after a long winter, is as much a part of the long weekend as theEaster bunny or hunting for eggs.
Piles of dried wood and kindling are often assembled days, or even weeks, in advance to prepare for the event. According to conservation group NABU, that's a problem for a host of insects, birds and small animals — including hedgehogs, rabbits, shrews, toads and weasels — who might see the stack of wood as an attractive place to seek shelter or build a nest.
"When these fires are lit for Easter, they virtually become a funeral pyre for these animals," NABU spokesman Philip Foth said.

In a statement, NABU said that Germans wanting to take part in the bonfire tradition should construct their fire as close as possible to Sunday. If that's not an option, they should carefully rearrange the sticks on the day of the fire to give animals a chance to flee.
Spokesman Foth said many communities were aware of the danger, with some cities imposing fire regulations. In the northern state of Bremen, for example, there's a law stipulating that Easter bonfires cannot be built more than a day before the event. The rule also states that any animals that are found must be taken to a safe place.

In Oberhausen, in the western industrial Ruhr district, Easter fires are only allowed if they are public, not private, events.
In Norderstedt, just north of Hamburg, the local branch of the Green Party has called for private Easter fires to be banned over the carbon emissions they produce. According to the Federal Environment Agency, the emissions from these traditional fires and campfires combined amount to some 400,000 tons being released in Germany each year.

In this feature to commemorate the First World War, we will bring you the news as it happened in 1918, as reported by the Morpeth Herald. All material is published with kind permission of the Mackay family. We thank them for their support and generosity in allowing us access to their archive.
A successful recruiting campaign for Queen Mary's Army Auxiliary Corps was held at Morpeth last Saturday. A large contingent of the corps from Gateshead, under the command of Miss Guest, visited the town, the other officers present being Miss Hingston, Miss Mitchell, Miss Smith, and Miss Boulton.
On their arrival at Morpeth railway station they were met by the Pipers' Band, and were played to the Market Place, where they were cordially welcomed by the Mayor (Councillor Jas. Elliott).
The strains of the pipes soon attracted a large crowd of spectators, and addressing the big assembly the Mayor said that he had a presentation to make before welcoming the members of the Women's Auxiliary Corps.
They had in Morpeth, he said, what they called the War Heroes Fund, which enabled them to present a wristlet watch to all local lads who were fortunate enough to gain military honours. They had had numerous presentation so far, and that afternoon he had to present a watch to another hero, namely, Gun-Fitter Robert Clark, a son of the late Mr Joseph Clark, of the Black Bull Hotel.
He then referred to the gallant work in a very hot corner which had gained for their soldier hero the Military Medal. It was at Messines that he distinguished himself. He kept in continuous action a gun battery through three tremendous heavy bombardments, and also went and repaired two guns belonging to another battery where the guns had been smashed and their fitter had been killed.
They would all sympathise with the recipient, for he had suffered a double bereavement lately, and was also suffering through having been gassed in action.
Turning to the brave soldier, he said: I have much pleasure in handing over this watch, and wish you long life to wear it.
Three rousing cheers followed the presentation.
The Mayor then addressed the officers, non-commissioned officers and privates of Queen Mary's Army Auxiliary Corps.
He said: "I wish to extend to you a hearty welcome to the borough. We all know how splendidly the women of England have risen to meet the emergencies of the war, and particularly I refer to the Q.M.A.A.C. We are really proud of the records standing to the credit of the W.A.A.C.s both at home and also on the Western Front.
"I am proud to give you this welcome, and I hope your purpose today will yield excellent results as far as the number of recruits is concerned. We want all the young women who desire to enrol in the corps to make their inquiries from the officers present. Now, I want to start you off on parade, and I will meet you when you have completed your route." (Applause.)
Headed by the Pipers' Band the members of the corps, presenting a very smart appearance, marched through the principal streets of the town, and, needless to say, attracted a good deal of attention. Later they assembled in the Y.M.C.A. rooms, where tea was kindly provided by the Mayoress (Mrs Jas. Elliott).
In the evening a recruiting meeting was held in the Y.M.C.A. Hall under the presidency of the Mayor. A special feature was the excellent programmes of music rendered by members of the corps. The hall was filled with a very appreciative audience, and the efforts of the performers were loudly applauded.
Those who contributed to the programme, which consisted of vocal and instrumental music, were: Miss Mitchell, Miss Boulton, Miss Smith (officers), Private Bennet and Private Crawford.
Miss Hingston, in making an urgent appeal for recruits, alluded to her experiences in France when connected with the V.A.D. She joined the W.A.A.C.s later. She referred to the fine works done by them in France. Out there they had concerts in their spare time. Of course, they did other things, and they wanted more people to do them.
She wanted the girls to ask themselves whether they could not do something to help to win the war — to help the men in France and at home. She wanted them all to realise how badly they were wanted. They must have the men to fight their battles, and the women could take their places.
The W.A.A.C.s were proud today of their corps, and those who had joined that day would also be proud of their corps. Their work was of a varied and interesting character. At present there was a special need for clerks, typists, cooks, and waitresses. They were well looked after at home and in France, and received the very best attention when sick.
Miss Sanday, organiser of women workers in the North, also appealed for recruits, and said that the best way they could show their gratitude to the men was to join the corps and help them. She mentioned the rates of pay and said that all recruits came before the Selection Board and were given the jobs that were best suited for them. No members were sent to France unless medically fit and twenty years of age.
She asked them to come forward wholeheartedly with the knowledge that they were serving their country in this crisis.
Mr Bowman, Howard Road Post Office, who was taking a great interest in this recruiting work, would supply enrolment forms to any persons making application during the week, and also show them how to fill them up.
At the close of the concert Miss Sanday proposed a vote of thanks to the Mayor for his splendid services that day, to the Pipers' Band for heading the procession, and also to the Boy Scouts.— This was enthusiastically carried.
The Mayor in reply expressed the hope that their efforts to obtain recruits would be crowned with success.
A largely attended recruiting meeting was held in the Market Place, the Mayor presiding. He briefly referred to the object of the meeting and introduced the speakers.
The first speaker was Coy. Sergt.-Major Carmichael. She appealed very eloquently for recruits, and said that any girl who joined the corps would never regret it. The life was a happy one and the welfare of the girls was never lost sight of.
Miss Hingston and Miss Sanday also addressed the gathering. The latter proposed a vote of thanks to the committee of the Y.M.C.A. for having placed their rooms at their disposal and also to Mr and Mrs Cowling for their assistance. The vote was heartily carried.
Shortly afterwards the Pipers' Band played the members of the corps to the station.
The 4th Volunteer Battalion Northumberland Fusiliers (formerly known as the 5th Battalion Northumberland Volunteer Regiment) has just completed five weekend musketry camps at Morpeth and Berwick. The attendances have been satisfactory and the shooting results good.
Over 80 per cent of the battalion have attended the camp for one or other of the weekends, and of those who attended only 3 per cent failed their musketry course. The battalion scores worked out well, the average score out of 60 being 36.
In addition to the musketry, about 300 recruits were passed out in their drill, bayonet training and extended order efficiency tests.
The annual camp will be held at Berwick on Friday, August 2nd, until Tuesday evening, 6th August. The Commanding Officer urged upon all volunteers the great benefit to be derived from at least two days' training. The programme for camp includes a field day on the Monday, August Bank Holiday, and on the Tuesday afternoon the battalion sports will be held.
A few recruits are still required to bring the battalion up to strength. Those wishing to join can obtain full particulars from Headquarters, Drill Hall, Alnwick; at the drill halls at Amble, Wooler, Berwick, Morpeth and Ashington, or from any of the Detachment Headquarters of the battalion.
The Executive Committee of the Northumberland Miners' Association has been in communication with the Coal Owners' Association respecting the employment of women labour on the surface at coal mines in the county, and a special council meeting of the Union has been called for Monday next to consider recommendations by the owners.
It is thought that in view of the shortage of men's labour, women might be usefully employed at, among other things, lamp cabin work, weigh and token cabins, store houses, and as storekeepers, timekeeping, as registrars, screening, as "wailing" and washing coal, at the colliery shops, in stacking and sawing timber, attending surface rope haulage, daubing coke over doors, in work at the exhausters on coke ovens, and generally on by-product work under suitable conditions.
A special delegate meeting of Northumberland miners is to be held on Monday first to consider proposals from the owners for the proposed employment of women on surface work about the pit during wartime.
Women for a long time past have been doing men's work on railways, in factories, on the land, and in fact they have been working alongside men in almost every phase of industry, and there seems no sufficient reason why they shouldn't be employed about the pits in order to keep the home fires burning in this critical period of the great struggle.
It would seem, however, that women are already working at collieries. At a local court this week a witness incidentally said that his wife was engaged at a local colliery "banking out," which is a very arduous form of work.
About a colliery there are many positions where the work is much less arduous than that, for instance work on the belt screens, which would release many men for other work for which men are needed.
Great interest was manifested at the Linden V.A.D. Hospital on Friday evening last, when the official presentation of the Military Medal to Corporal J.J. Smalt, York and Lancaster Regiment, took place.
The ceremony took place before a large gathering of nurses, soldiers, and friends, and when Miss Adamson, the Commandant rose to decorate the corporal she met with a cheery reception.
In a few appropriate words Colonel Adamson, C.O. of the Northumberland War Hospital, of which Linden is an auxiliary, paid a high tribute to the corporal, who had been recommended for the D.C.M., as well as the M.M., for conspicuous gallantry in the field, and to all those who were fighting for civilisation.
Among those present were Mrs Adamson, Miss Eva Adamson (quarter-master) and Mrs H.L. Pattinson, jun.
Mrs Stafford, of East House, Morpeth, has received the Card of Honour, which was awarded to her son, the late Private Thomas Stafford, of the Northumberland Fusiliers.
According to the official notice, dated 13th April last, he displayed great gallantry and devotion to duty in keeping his gun in action when other men of his team had become casualties.
He was seriously wounded on April 16th and died from his wounds the following day.
In his monthly circular to the Northumberland Miners' Association, Mr Straker offers some opinion of the recent Labour Party Conference.
Very largely the storm of passion engendered by the war has passed, but the waves of feeling have not yet subsided altogether, and so we could hear, ever and anon, the angry waves of feeling still breaking and fuming against the solidity of the Labour movement.
The presence of fraternal delegates shows how closely nationally and internationally the Labour movement is woven together.
After the outbreak of war there were some who sneered at the idea of internationalism, and pointed to the fact of the war as proving the idea to be merely a visionary's dream.
These poor men with a vision reaching no further than supper-time, could not see that it was largely the growing solidarity of the working classes internationally that alarmed the militarists of the world, who were convinced that short of war nothing could prevent Labour coming into power.
German militarists declared if there was not a war soon war would be impossible owing to the growth of democracy.
In our own country it was frequently said that nothing could allay what was then called "labour unrest" but just another war.
It is one of the unlooked for results of the war that instead of internationalism and democracy being set back by the war, the war has given an impetus to them which nothing else could have done, by showing the absolute necessity of greater unity among the peoples of the world if another such catastrophe is to be prevented in the future.
The presence of these delegates at the annual conference of the British Labour Party is but a manifestation of that international fraternal spirit among the workers, without which no League of National can exist — except on paper.

text: My wife has a 2003 VW Polo with 7,000 miles on it and the offside brake light has failed. Guess what? YOU HAVE TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER TO CHANGE THE BULB! I can't believe it! Having looked at the access to the light assembly inside the boot of the car, there is no obvious access and the owners manual does not recommend owners to attempt to change the bulbs. This is worse than crap! There is what looks the end of a bolt sticking out lower down, but I am loathe to tamper with it in case the rear bumper drops off or something. So my wife has to break the law or keep the car off the road until she can get to the garage. Then what? £50+vat labour plus parts?

The autumn-winter catwalks were filled with all-out, high-octane glamour, which stretched all the way to the beauty regime. Think, bombshell beauties from the 1930s and 40s and sensual hours spent getting your look just perfect at the dressing table, and you'll find your instinct for luxury amply rewarded in a swipe of lush crimson from a gold and black lipstick bullet and an elegant spritz of perfume.

We will approach the topic of the business communication by establishing its characteristics within the larger context of the human communication. During the modern and especially postmodern periods, we assist to a form of neo-humanism based on the impersonality of the great urban communities in the world metropolis. The economic units are seen today through the perspective of their reports with the social area, the modern image of a company is that it is mainly formed of human resources and then of technical and logistical endowments.
Nowadays, great efforts are made to build the identity of a company (brand, trade mark) which presents itself as a social body reported to similar ones in the market at a certain moment. The image is fundamental for every company, and that is why they hire specialists in public relations to improve the social impact of their trade mark.
The role of the services and actions of the PR department is to build the identity image of the company but also to create and maintain good relations with the public and since this relation is fundamental for the argumentation process, we will briefly present the target public categories of the PR activities: written, audio-visual or electronic mass-media; public opinion or external public (every citizen); internal public (employees, managers, internal organisations, unions etc.); the financial institutions, banks, stock markets, insurance companies etc.
We mention that the communication model chosen refers to the relation with the internal public of a multinational company, namely E.ON Romania.

Why buy earthbath when I can just wash my pet with soap or baby shampoo?
Believe it or not, your pet's skin is actually more sensitive than a baby's because it is covered with fur. earthbath shampoo is pH balanced to be milder than soap or even baby shampoo. Soap can be especially drying to a pet's skin and leave residue in the fur, causing itching, dandruff and shedding. Soap is also more likely to wash off any topical flea preparations, while our soap-free formulas are perfectly safe.
What is the difference between soap and detergent?
Both clean well, but see the question above. All cleansing ingredients can be classified as detergents and soap is one of them. The best explanation is by analogy: cars and airplanes are both means of transportation, but each functions differently. Soap and plant or vegetable-based cleansers are both detergents, but have different chemical compositions and health properties.
Is earthbath safe to use on my other pets - like ferrets, rabbits, horses, etc.
Absolutely, although we do make shampoos specifically for horses' special needs for sunscreen and pest repellency. The most important criterion for pet shampoo is that it be mild and pH-balanced. All of our products are formulated with the mildest ingredients available and are pH-balanced for safety and mildness for animals' sensitive skin. If you decide to wash a small animal, we suggest you first dilute the shampoo into an equal amount of water to increase further the mildness, or to use a grooming wipe. Happy sudsing!
Why are earthbath products paraben free and phthalate free?
earthbath products are paraben and phthalate free because we're committed to making our products as safe and gentle as possible. Parabens are a group of chemicals that have been widely used as preservatives in human and pet shampoos, but in 1998, the US Environmental Protection Agency released a report stating that parabens – butyl, ethyl, methyl and propyl varieties – demonstrated "estrogenic activity." This means that these chemicals could possibly imitate hormones found in the human body and have an adverse effect on our endocrine system when absorbed by the skin or flushed into our drinking supply. Phthalates are molecules found in some fragrances which have been linked to birth defects. While these scientific findings can be controversial, we have decided to play it safe for the health of our customers.
Do I need to dilute earthbath before using it?
No. earthbath is very mild and is blended to be used full strength. Should you wish to make your shampoo go further, you may dilute it up to 10 parts water to 1 part shampoo. Gallons may be diluted 33 parts water to 1 part shampoo.
What makes shampoo hypoallergenic?
Hypoallergenic refers to a product's mildness and property of being unlikely to cause an allergic reaction. A true hypoallergenic shampoo should be pH-balanced very close to a value of 7 (water is pH neutral and has a value of 7.0) and should contain no color or fragrance. Color and fragrance are frequently the culprits of allergic reactions.
Do you offer product refills?
Do you test your products on animals?Our products are animal cruelty free and contain no animal ingredients or byproducts.
I love how earthbath smells... can I use it myself?
earthbath shampoos are all human-grade, but are pH-balanced for pets' more sensitive skin. However, this hasn't stopped our CEO from using it daily. Go ahead, give it a try. We won't judge, just please bring us our slippers and newspaper on time from now on.
Why doesn't earthbath have the USDA Organic Seal?
We don't want it for our grooming products, nor should you. To the best of our knowledge, to have the USDA Organic Seal, a grooming solution must contain 100% organic SOAP. We give you our unconditional promise that we'll never put soap into any earthbath product. Soap dries out animals' skin and coats, leaves residue in the fur that can cause irritation and allergies, and it will wash off topical flea applications.earthbath products presently meet the USDA "made with organic ingredients" requirements and we are well down the path to achieving a coveted organic certification used in the environmentally innovative European Union. More later… thanks for asking and encouraging us to do so.
Do earthbath products contain sulfates?
No, our products do not contain SLS, SLES or ALS.
Why do some of your products contain tea tree oil or eucalyptus oil? I heard they were toxic to pets.
Eucalyptus oil and melaleuca oil (tea tree) are wonderfully fragrant essential oils, that in low concentrations, offer great benefits to skin and coat. The key is that the percentage of oil needs to be low enough for it to be safe. We have done extensive research on this over the years, including working with the head of the Veterinary Toxicology entity of the ASPCA to perfect our formulas such that they are safe and non-toxic. Add to this the fact that we've been blending and selling products with these oils in them for over 15 years without issue, and we can assure you that our products are well-designed for healthy use on pets and people alike.
Do your hypoallergenic products have any noticeable smell?
We use absolutely no fragrance or scent of any kind in any of our hypo-allergenic or fragrance free shampoos and grooming wipes.
Are your products vegan friendly?
Yes! We don't do animal testing and do not use animal by products in any of our products.
Are your products gluten free?
All of our products are gluten free with the exception of our conditioners, which contain hydrolyzed wheat.
What's the expiration date on my product?
We use natural preservatives in our products, so they do not expire.
Can earthbath be used with flea control products?
Yes, all of our formulas are compatible with the popular topical flea applications such as Frontline®, Advantage®, and K9 Advantix®.
How often should I bathe my dog?
We recommend no more than once or twice a week. Dogs have natural skin oils that keep their skin healthy and more frequent bathing can remove more than a healthy amount of skin oils.
How soon after or before applying a topical flea application such as The Advantage, etc. should I wait to bathe my dog?
We have been advised by the manufacturers of these applications that dogs should not be bathed 48 hours before or 48 hours after applying the topical flea applications.
Either I am allergic to dogs or cats, or some people who visit my home are. Is there anything I can do to reduce the human/animal allergic reaction?
Human/dog and human/cat allergies are quite common. We suggest regularly using grooming wipes to control dander, shedding and residual saliva that remain in dog's and cat's fur as a first line of defense against allergies.
My dog has fleas. Can earthbath help?
Our products are safe to use with and will not wash off commercial flea control products. However, if you're looking for a more natural solution, our Orange Peel Oil shampoo is very popular. Orange Peel Oil is the natural oil rendered from oranges, and is also called d-Limonene. d-Limonene is registered with the Federal Environmental Protection Agency as an insecticide and is quite effective at killing fleas. We also have shampoos and spritzes that contain eucalyptus and peppermint oils. These essential oils are believed to naturally repel fleas without harsh chemicals or pesticides. For general flea control around the home, you can purchase eucalyptus or peppermint oil at any natural foods store and try putting a few drops in bedding, blankets or wherever your pet sleeps or lies for any period of time. For extra credit, plant peppermint in your garden and window boxes. Placing Eucalyptus leaves or acorns under your dog's bedding can also work wonders.
My dog itches. Which product should I use?
For itchy skin, we recommend either the Oatmeal & Aloe or Tea Tree & Aloe shampoo. Each addresses a different cause of itching. If your pet has hot spots, or sensitive lesions, the Tea Tree & Aloe will help reduce inflammation because tea tree is recognized to have anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, and recent research has confirmed its insecticidal properties toward mites, lice and fleas. If your pet has dry, itchy skin, Oatmeal & Aloe will help re-moisturize and condition the skin. Both shampoos contain aloe vera, an effective, complimentary emollient.
Is earthbath safe to use on my puppy?
The products designated as Puppy grooming products are safe, gentle and pH balanced for mildness as well. Across the product line, unless otherwise specified, all of our products are safe for dogs, cats, puppies and kittens over the age of 6 weeks.
Why should I wash my cat and how?
Human cat allergies are quite common, whether they be between owner and feline, or visitors to the home and your precious pussycat. Residual saliva and dander in the cat's fur as well as in the home are the most common sources of such allergies and can be reduced dramatically through periodic grooming and vacuuming of the home and furniture. earthbath offers a full line of grooming products for our feline friends. We have traditional Cat Shampoo, two varieties of waterless grooming foam for cats, and Cat Wipes. Our Cat Shampoo is loaded with supple conditioners and emollients, while our Grooming Foam is a rub on, towel off solution for deep cleansing without the challenges and risks inherent in water-based bathing, and our Cat Wipes are the simplest solution to purrrfecting your pussy cat's precious look and feel. With one wipe in each hand, apply a quick rotating motion from head to tail, and Fluffy will look and feel better than ever before.
Why can't I use the Orange Peel Oil shampoo on my cat?
Unfortunately, a very small percentage of cats are allergic to orange peel oil, the natural extract of orange rinds. Although this allergy is quite rare, it can be acute and is best not risked. Dogs do not share this risk and are generally safe to wash with orange peel oil.
Is earthbath safe to use on my kitten?
The products designated as kitten grooming products are safe, gentle and pH balanced for mildness as well. Across the product line, unless otherwise specified, all of our products are safe for dogs, cats, puppies and kittens over the age of 6 weeks.

Saved my poor puppy's skin
By PeanutsFurmom96 on May 9, 2019
The puppy I recently rescued was covered in fleas so badly, touching him would get blood on my hands. He's now flea free, but not without having such damaged skin. He was itchy, flaky and uncomfortable...until we found this. Just with one bath, it's done so much for his skin. He barely has any flakes now and I can tell he feels much better. The old bites on his stomach also look so much better now. I'll be using it on my other dog too since his skin gets a little irritated and itchy here and there from the grass/weeds we have in the yard. This product is amazing, I've already recommended it to someone.
Cleans your pup very well!
By CJ23 on May 22, 2019
We got this mainly for our dog, and will use on cats if they absolutely get into a huge mess. It lathers very well, and is soft on the skin. A little bit goes a long way, so the bottle should last you a long time. The smell isn't my favorite, but I don't really like oatmeal smells. Just got it so it's more soothing to her skin because she has dander.
Better Than Expected
By Steve on May 7, 2019
The Earthbath shampoo worked extremely well on my adult GSD. Noticed a reduction in itching and scratching after 1st use, along with Earthbath conditioner. Smells great and seems to rinse cleaner than soapy shampoos in the past. Plus, there is NO SOAP in it. Wow. Just cleaners and conditioners that are good for her skin and coat. Highly recommended.
Super soft coat, but dry skin
By PitbullMomma on May 7, 2019
This made our pitty's coat ridiculously soft, but it also gave her dry and flaking skin. I've tried using it on her 3 different times now, make extra sure to rinse her coat thoroughly and it's the same thing every time. I think we're going to give the hypoallergenic stuff a try and see if that's any better.
Makes my puppy puke..
By Gina on Apr 20, 2019
I'm not sure why but every time I wash my dog with this shampoo she throws up the next day. She does not drink the bath water and she doesn't throw up from stress because she likes bath time and doesn't throw up until hours after. The shampoo smells great and works well so I don't blame the product. I just want to know if this happens to anyone else and if it does you are not alone. :(
Wonderful shampoo
By Nigphi on Apr 23, 2019
This shampoo has really improved the condition of my rescued stray (his coat was very poor). It makes his fur soft and eliminates the distinct pet odor. It lathers well and ZIbaldo seems to enjoy his soapy massages. I like that it does all this without many undesired additives and doesn't interfere with topical medication.
I use it myself
By Jenn on Apr 29, 2019
I choose products for my family based upon ingredients. While this is marketed for pets, and I use it for my pets, I also love it for myself and other humans in my family. Interestingly, it's better and less expensive than most 'natural' shampoos marketed for people. I love it! :)
Great product!
By Chris on Apr 26, 2019
Works great on my shepherds! Seems to ease the skin irritation we experience every spring when the fleas, ticks and others become active. A little goes a long way, easy to rinse off and fragrance free.
It works great!
By aussies4ever on Mar 8, 2019
I've never gotten this shampoo before but I was looking for a good one and decided to buy it! I have 3 Australian shepherds and it worked fantastic for them! The smell is very faint, and doesn't last long but it still makes them smell clean and keeps their coat clean and soft! It makes bath time 10x easier! It lathers well and washes off like a breeze! Which is great with aussies hair! Before hand I'd always spend forever washing the soap from their fur! I'd definitely recommend!
Best Shampoo
By kristen on Apr 9, 2019
I got this shampoo after seeing a lot of instagram posts about it from trusted pet owners and it does not disappoint! It smells great and almost 2 weeks later my dog still smells good and is super soft. She is never this soft or shiny 2 weeks after a bath. Highly recommend.

What is an HEVC H.265 Encoder, and What Does it Do?
You're here to learn what an HEVC/H.265 encoder is, and what it does. Maybe you'd also like to know when you'd need one, and why.
Let's jump right into it then. You'll learn what HEVC/H.265 is, when you'd need a hardware version of an HEVC encoder, and why you'd use one.
What is HEVC/H.265?
For quite a few years now, H.264 encoding has been the standard for video transport over the internet. But as resolutions get bigger, bandwidth becomes more available, and the demand for higher-quality video increased, a new level of compression was needed.
Building on the concepts behind H.264 compression, a team was assembled to develop a new standard, which was first published in June of 2013, and was called High Efficiency Video Encoding (HEVC) or H.265.
In essence, HEVC takes the same quality video that you'd compress with H.264 and compresses it even further.
The danger in further compression is that you can end up with lower-quality video being viewed at the receiving end, so in order to meet the needs of high-quality video, HEVC had to take the original concepts of H.264 and build on them by making better decisions about what to compress, and how. HEVC is more demanding, both on the encoding side, and on the decoding side, from a computing point of view, but is a much more intelligent way of encoding video.
It looks for spatial repetition within frames, and seeks out opportunities to not have to send the same information over a series of frames. Instead of sending every single image in a sequence, it can send the first full frame, and if there are repetitions within spaces in that frame, they don't need to be sent again, lowering the total size of the file being sent.
Basically, the more the compression algorithm searches, the more accurate it can be. The more frames you can reference, the more accurate you can be, as well. It's a matter of increasing the level of complexity of how you estimate motion, spatial resolutions, and other information that can be repeated without having to send that information with every frame.
By not having to send all of the raw data, the decoder translates the messages and files it receives from the encoder, and resolves the video to give you the same high quality stream as the original.
When do I need a hardware encoder?
The average video streamer using a live streaming service can often get away with using software encoding. Software encoders can compress video, however, hardware encoders are turnkey devices dedicated solely to the fast and efficient encoding of your video stream. They'll have better processing power, use high-quality video inputs like SDI and HDMI, and will allow you to stream higher-quality video at lowered bandwidth rates.
For the most part, HEVC hardware encoders are used by professionals. For example, a broadcaster may employ the use of an encoder in a remote location in order to conduct an interview in real time for broadcast on television.
Another example would be a big business like LinkedIn using an encoder to be able to conduct town hall meetings with participants in different geographical locations, all joining the live stream in near real time (it's essentially real time, with delays of ~250ms), and with high-quality video contribution that can be produced from one location.
Taking encoding to the next level
One of the tools that broadcasters and enterprise video pros alike are using in their workflows to increase quality and lower bandwidth is Secure Reliable Transport (SRT). SRT is open-source software that optimizes streaming performance even in a situation where you might be streaming over an unpredictable or unknown network.
Despite clever compression tools like HEVC/H.265, unreliable networks can increase video latency, and cause jitter and packet loss, lowering the quality of the video at the receiving end. As an open-source project with no licensing fees, its goal is to help everyone reduce latency and increase quality, no matter the network they're sending video over.
A new compression standard is already being developed, with a target of reducing HEVC's current bitrate by half, that has a target date of October, 2020. Other compression standards are emerging, and the race is on to ensure that anyone consuming video, no matter what device they're using, will be able to get the highest quality with the lowest impact on bandwidth requirements.

In summer 2010, I met a handsome young man at a social event in the suburb of Washington DC. He was accompanied by his wife and a beautiful daughter. He said that he had returned from Iraq after serving one term in the military and was looking forward to another term of deployment. When I told him that I had served in Iraq for two years and my assignment began prior to the US-led invasion, he was curious to know what I was doing there. I replied I was involved in humanitarian assistance programme under the Oil for Food programme. He narrated a few encounters he had with the enemy, and I noticed his voice raging in fury as he spoke. He seemed to believe that he could bulldoze his way out. I realised he was being methodically trained to hate enemies so that he could be okay with killing them. I never met him again. After two years, I came to know that he was divorced, had no family and was living in isolation. What then started to haunt me was the realisation that war is complicated - there is no easy "way in", and the "way out" is fraught with greater difficulties.
George Walker Bush, for no valid reason, had orchestrated a dangerous war plan and invaded Iraq in 2003. The entire nation was overwhelmed at the destruction of the Twin-Tower in September 2001. This was the first time the enemy was able to strike a target on the main land in the United States. The Congress was disillusioned, the intelligence agencies never comprehended that an attack on the soil of the United States was possible. At that time, the Congress bestowed unconditional authority on the president to take military action against the enemy. Only a handful of Senators and Congressmen opposed the resolution out of concern that the president might abuse the war resolution and drag the nation to an unjust war - like the one in Vietnam 55 years ago.
Afghanistan was attacked. Following weeks of heavy bombardment Taliban fighters and leaderships escaped to the mountains. The severity of aerial attacks on the Tora Bora Mountains convinced the military experts that Osama Bin Laden was killed. American troops landed in Kabul, Jalalabad, Gazni, Herat and other major cities. A civilian administration took the reign in Kabul. Normalcy started to return, and Afghan refugees began to return homes. The war lords reiterated loyalty to the new government in Kabul.
Rehabilitation of infrastructure began with international funding. Schools reopened and girls after decades of being denied education joined schools. Women started working in shops, restaurants and offices. Professional Afghan men and women came back to Afghanistan from the US, Canada and Europe to participate in the nation building programme. Exuberance among the people was noticed all over the country. By mid-2002, peace seemed to have dawned all over Afghanistan. There was no resistance by the Taliban. The military leadership began to conclude that Taliban had been decimated. But subsequent events confirmed that the Taliban was defeated but not decimated. They assimilated with the local population, regrouped and waited for the opportunity to conduct insurgency. They did not wait too long.
The political and military leadership in the United States appeared complacent. They concluded that the Taliban have been hit hard and that chances of their coming back to the battlefield were very slim. They placed confidence in the newly created Afghan military and the police to thwart probable insurgency. The presence of NATO troops and troops of other countries in Afghanistan prompted the US military to turn attention to another battlefield - Iraq.
It was later learned from credible sources that President Bush and his advisors had decided that it was the appropriate time to complete the unfinished task in Iraq. Iraq was reeling under international sanction. But to allow the population to meet their very basic needs, an immaculately designed "Oil for Food Programme" was approved by the United Nations Security Council, under which Iraq was permitted to export petroleum in small volumes, and the oil revenue was authorised to be spent on the procurement of essential food items, medicine and medical appliances, housing and construction materials, fertilizers and insecticides and text books and journals. The Iraqi government could negotiate on the terms of purchase but it had no access to the fund maintained with Bank Paribus in France.
The objective of the Oil for Food programme was to enable the Iraqi people to access food and other essential items but denied the government to make use of the oil revenue to revamp its military, procure arms and ammunitions and produce chemical and bio-logical weapons. International Atomic and Energy Agency (IAEA) and United Nations Monitoring Verification and Inspection Commission (UNMOVIC) were under the mandate to oversee that Iraq was under the compliance of disarmament and was not in pursuit of weapons of mass destruction. The inspectors had unfettered access to sites inside Iraq to examine materials or products stored in military warehouses. Iraq was indeed disarmed. Neither the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) nor the United Nations Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission (UNMOVIC) reported Iraq having possession of the deadly weapons of mass destruction.
Nevertheless, Iraq was invaded. In two weeks, Baghdad fell and a provisional administration took charge of the country. But within three months, insurgency began to surface. As insurgency became widespread and fatalities mounted, Bush administration dispatched additional troops to Iraq. In the process, the US got fully entangled into a long-drawn warfare.
As the casualties of soldiers soared and economy plunged into recession, people demanded termination of the war and troops to be brought home. Barak Obama won the election with a solemn promise to end the unjust war. But by that time, damage had already been done. Over 4,500 American soldiers were killed and 30,000 wounded in Iraq. Unemployment exceeded by 10 per cent and thousands of families lost homes through foreclosures. The US troops were withdrawn in 2012 but Obama administration did not put in place a contingency plan in the event the situation took a different turn. Two years later, when the Islamic State (IS) emerged, Pentagon was dumbfounded. American troops were again dispatched to Iraq, though in smaller number, to train and guide the Iraqi army. President Trump has now pledged to withdraw the US troops from Iraq and Syria since the IS has been defeated. The assessment of the intelligence agencies is, however, different. They believe IS threat still persists and once the US troops are withdrawn, it would return with extreme brutality. CIA estimates about 40,000 IS fighters in the region.
Trump administration is negotiating with the Taliban to bring an end to the eighteen-year long war in Afghanistan. Interestingly, Afghan government is not a party to the negotiations because the Taliban terms the Afghan government a puppet regime of the United States. Though no breakthrough has yet been achieved, Washington seems optimistic about a peace deal. It is undeniable that there is no possibility of a military victory in Afghanistan but leaving the country at the hands of the Taliban will have the risk of losing whatever has been achieved in the past 18 years in terms of human development. Since 2001, enrolment in schools increased from 900,000 to 8 million and 40 per cent of students are girls.
Trump proclaimed that "Great nations do not fight endless wars." But termination of war should be followed by peace, progress and prosperity. Had the United States, following the World War II abandoned Japan and Germany they would have been lost to Soviet Union. Instead, the United States, under Marshall Plan invested millions in the development of physical, industrial and educational infrastructures in the erstwhile enemy countries and lifted them up to their best potentials.
Let's not lose sight of the fact that the Taliban controls 44 per cent of territory in Afghanistan and commands 77,000 fighters. A peace deal, hastily prepared and devoid of adequate safeguards for human rights, rule of law and some form of pluralism in governance will be cataclysmic to the people of Afghanistan and detrimental to the region. Washington should build a coalition of countries, including neighbours of Afghanistan, to be involved in the peace negotiation.

Just a few hours after Jezebel and Adweek successively posted on the existence of the headlining category on Walmart's retail page, it has disappeared.We would talk about the "why" behind this story, but the "how" is more relevant — and based on multiple recent tales of big-name retailers associated with undesirable products (remember Sears and the swastika rings?), we have to blame the third-party merchandisers and/or developers who are hired to help run these brands' retail sites.Can we all agree at this point that such relationships are often problematic? These third-party providers have no real connection to the businesses they serve and often display a stunning unfamiliarity with the brands' voices.Also: based on the time elapsed between these two consumer complaints, we have to wonder whether it was the products themselves or the ensuing press coverage that spurred Walmart to action…Is that sorry in corporate speak?

Smart Packing: Skincare For 3 Days
I made a work trip out to Lakeway Resort & Spa in Lakeway, Texas last week (Read my review on the resort here!). Used to overpack all the time, but now I know to pack only what I need is the best. Especially for us females, beauty products seem to take up a whole lot of space, but I narrowed the list down to what I really needed during my stay at the resort.
I dig through my sample box for a quick getaway or when I don't want to carry around too much. Not only does this save so much space, but you'll be surprised with how much these samples contain.
What I decide to bring can change anytime. I switch up my skin products depending on the condition of my skin each week, and here's what I took on my work trip!
Make-Up Remover (Pond's Cold Cream – not pictured; click the link for pic) and Cleanser (Kiehl's):
As always, I made sure to use an oil-based make-up remover to take off all the make-up I had. The next step is to wash my face with the Ultra Facial Cleanser from Kiehl's. I chose this cleanser because it's very gentle on my skin. I was also breaking out a lot this week, so a gentle cleanser was very appropriate for my skin at the time.
Serum (Sulwhasoo):
I brought this Snowise Ex Brightening Serum from Sulwhasoo to condense the process of using a toner + essence. Also, I knew Austin has very strong sunlight, so I wanted to make sure I do not develop any sun spots.
Face sheet mask (Skin Food):
Can't forget a selfie! I kept a face mask from Skin Food in the fridge and used it for my second night. Austin was really dry, so I chose a mask that would target my dehydrated skin.
Moisturizer (Kiehl's):
When I travel to a different city, my usual skincare products sometimes show different reactions. This depends on the climate or the water condition in different locations. Due to this reason, I usually choose a gentle moisturizer that works for sensitive skin and is odorless. This time, I decided to bring Kiehl's Ultra Facial Moisturizer! This is also in the same line as the aforementioned cleanser.
Eye Cream (SU:M):
I love this line in general, but I chose this specific Flawless Regenerating Eye Cream from SU:M because Austin is very dry for me, and my skin always tends to be drier when I stay at hotels because of their full blast air conditioning.
Throughout years of travelings, I learned to make it easy on myself by packing smart. It really comes down to what you really need during your stay. For me and this specific trip, these products were what I needed, and it was the perfect amount to last me for three days. When you purchase products online or in-store, always make sure to get samples. I LOVE samples because they're perfect for traveling!
Instead of a face sheet mask, I also love utilizing sleeping masks. This Water Sleeping Mask (Available in-store at Target or on Amazon directly from the Laneige website) from Laneige is my all-time favorite sleeping mask. Sleeping masks are especially great for flying! I just put it on before I get in the plane or as soon as I get on the plane. That way, I can keep my skin super hydrated during the flight.

This is the talk page for discussing improvements to the Kamina article.
Princess KnightEdit
Just came across http://www.astroboy-online.com/forums/images/imported/pk05697un8.jpg which is apparently the first appearance of Sapphire in her 'knight' costume in Ribon no Kishi (also called Princess Knight). The glasses look familiar. Could Kamina's look be based on this? talk2ty 10:41, January 25, 2015 (UTC)
Back stabber ` Edit
Well i LOVE the show but i think kamina knew about simons fellings for yoko and in my eyes he CRUSHED them i dont know it may just be me but in the first episode and in episode 6 yoko said "if he(simon) worked at it he could become a good man" i dont know what this means to some but to me it looks like yoko likes simon e specially when in the first episode simon slames into yokos boobs and yoko smiles and when she sees a gunmen she pushed him back in to her boobs soooooo if you get the picture and u see where im coming form then why didn't yoko go with simon.In my books this makes kamina a back stabber and its not fun.
p.s. To me this is frustrating! And yes i know im pritty late to this
note this is my opinion and you dont have to take it into consideration i just needed to get it out. sorry if i hurt your fellings. but yoko should have been with simon
Wouldnt Kamina's last appearence be in episode 26? I understand that he's sorta a ghost or something, but he is technacilly Kamina.

The recorded message on the Washington Blade's phone on Nov. 16 gives no hint at what happened. It still says, "Thank you for calling the nation's most trusted gay newspaper, serving the community since 1969."
But as of Monday, the paper is no more. Its Web site is down and its employees are without jobs.
Employees at both the Blade and a sister paper in Atlanta, the Southern Voice, found out when they arrived for work Monday that their papers were shut down over the weekend and that their parent company, Window Media, was filing for bankruptcy.
The news comes in the same year that gay magazine Genre was ended, and The Advocate was merged with Out Magazine as supplement to it.
The Blade staff had just last month celebrated the paper's 40th anniversary. The Southern Voice had been in publication for 21 years.
Many gay news media observers knew the papers were in trouble. The Gay City News broke the news last February that the U.S. Small Business Administration had put the papers into receivership. The problem, according to the SBA, was that Window Media's major stockholder, the Avalon Equity Fund, had failed to maintain a necessary level of private assets to secure a $38 million loan it had taken from the agency.
But many believed someone would step in and buy the Washington Blade – a 40-year-old paper which had been on the cutting edge of reporting the gay civil rights movement in the nation's capital and beyond.
So when word broke on the morning of Nov. 16 that the Blade and the Southern Voice were closed for business – immediately – the news was a shock to most people – including its employees.
Laura Douglas-Brown, longtime editor of the Southern Voice, told reporters she didn't learn the news until she arrived for work Monday and found that the locks to the offices had been changed and a note posted on the door saying the paper had been shut down.
The note stated: "It is with GREAT regret that we must inform you that effective immediately, the operations of Window Media, LLC and United Media, LLC have closed down. Please return to this office on Wednesday, November 18th, 2009 at 11 a.m. to collect personal belongings and to receive information on your separation stipulations. Please bring boxes and/or containers that will allow you to collect all your personal belongings at one time. Regretfully, Steve Myers and Mike Kitchens."
Myers and Kitchens were co-presidents of Window Media.
Ditto in Washington, D.C., where Editor Kevin Naff said two corporate officers greeted staff members at the Blade offices Monday morning, advising them the paper was shutting down immediately and filing for bankruptcy.
The Washington Blade and Southern Voice were the primary papers of Window Media, LLC, a company founded in 1997 by gay activist William Waybourn and Southern Voice editor Chris Crain. In 2001, the company teamed up with Avalon Equity, a capital venture firm run by New Yorker David Unger, and purchased The Washington Blade and its younger sister, The New York Blade.
Over the years, Window Media acquired more properties – including the Houston Voice – and formed an "alliance" with another gay publishing group, United Media, and Genre magazine. Together, they billed themselves as the largest LGBT publishing company in the world.
But by August 2008, Window Media was in receivership. Insiders insisted the papers would continue publishing, but soon after news broke about the SBA putting the papers into receivership, the publications began to skid. Genre magazine was the first to suspend operation. That happened in March, with Unger, then chief executive officer of Window Media, saying it was a casualty of the struggling economy. In July, the New York Blade suspended operation.
Naff told Los Angeles Frontiers reporter Karen Ocamb that he and others on the staff will meet Tuesday to discuss starting their own "new entity." But Blade publisher Lynn Brown would neither confirm nor deny that plan.
Said Brown: "It's the end of an era."
The Washington Blade had just last month celebrated its 40th anniversary of publishing.
