Leica Geosystems Geospatial Imaging has announced a Center of Excellence in Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing at Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) in Rochester, New York. As a Leica Geosystems Center of Excellence, the Chester F. Carlson Center for Imaging Science at RIT will incorporate Leica Geosystems products into their curriculum and research activities.
The Laboratory for Imaging Algorithms and Systems (LIAS), a research group within the Center for Imaging Science, is focused on the development of prototype sensors and software for observation of the earth using aerial and satellite-based imaging systems. The main areas of LIAS research are the development of image exploitation tools, airborne and ground based sensor systems, and decision support tools for incident managers.
RIT plans to integrate Leica Geosystems' software into its imaging science curriculum. The software donation will also be used in the Center's remote sensing work with the Monroe County Office of Emergency Preparedness and other government agencies. The Center is currently working with these groups to provide more accurate mapping and location technologies to be used during possible terrorist attacks or national emergencies.
In addition, RIT will be utilizing the donation as part of its Wildfire Airborne Sensor Program (WASP). This effort uses high performance sensor technology and software to track and map forest fires to assist the forest service and firefighters in identifying fires earlier and helping to ensure the safety of crews on the ground. The WASP team recently mapped a series of forest fires for the US Forest Service in Western Montana.

Originally published on Legal Planet.
Under executive orders dating back to President Ronald Reagan, regulatory agencies like EPA are supposed to follow cost-benefit analysis when making decisions. Under the Trump administration, however, cost-benefit analysis has barely even served as window-dressing for its deregulatory actions. It has launched a series of efforts to prevent full counting of regulatory benefits, as well as committing any number of sins against economic principles, as I detailed in a post in January. Essentially, the administration has had a laser-like focus on the costs of regulation, which it often exaggerates, while making every effort to ignore or minimize possible benefits. If Trump is reelected, that will continue.
But what if the Democrats win? Then things are more complicated. A lot depends on the identity of the Democratic nominee. Regardless of who that person may be, however, some parts of cost-benefit analysis will survive, at least so long as we have our current environmental laws and our current Supreme Court Justices.
When regulations are based on health risks, the Supreme Court has long required that risk levels be quantified as much as possible. Most environmental laws require consideration of costs, which means that, if the Democrats win, agencies will still have to estimate them. Even when cost estimates aren't required, the government would presumably like to present its own numbers rather than leaving industry claims unchallenged in the political arena. These components of ...

At the ripe old age of 70, my father is getting married again. It has been many years since he was married, and I know that if mom were able to see him now, she would be happy that he was finding new love at such an old age. He's marrying a woman that he met a church. I guess if you're going to meet someone, a church is as good of a place as any to do it. They sent out nice wedding invitations that they purchased on https://www.brideandgroomdirect.co.uk/wedding-invitations. People were surprised to see that he was getting married again after so many years.
Since my father has been single for so long, people thought that he would just stay that way until his final days. I think he was thinking that too, because he wasn't too concered with meeting anyone. He still had his old ring on his finger, as if he would never take it off until it was time for him to be put into the ground. Now that he has made the commitment to get married again, he's finally taken it off and given it to me. He told me that I could keep it or even give it to my future wife if I wanted. I wasn't thinking about that at the time, but it doesn't sound like a bad idea.
I hope my father is ready to get used to the married life again. He's been enjoying the single life for so long that I know he's forgotten what it's like to have a wife tell you what to do. He won't be able to walk around in his underwear like he's been able to do when no one else was in the house. If he did it once, I suppose he can do it again.

Social media has done a lot of good since its inception. It's connected loved ones and friends across geographical distances, reunited long-lost loved ones and created communities for antisocial people. However, social media can perpetuate antisocial behaviour, magnify bullying and provide an easy platform for people to say things they otherwise would never say in public. Consequently, they end up regretting them.
Since they live under a public microscope, when celebrities commit a faux pas on social media, it inevitably starts "trending," and in two shakes of a lamb's tail, people online and offline across the world are gossiping about it.
This list examines some of the well-known celebrity social faux pas committed across various popular social media platforms. Like a train wreck, you won't want to stare, but you won't be able to look away.
Even Wonder Woman makes mistakes. Actor Gal Gadot took to Twitter after famed astrophysicist Stephen Hawking passed away to leave some heartfelt thoughts on his departure: "Rest in peace Dr. Hawking. Now you're free of any physical constraints. Your brilliance and wisdom will be cherished forever."
That statement didn't go over too well, particularly the part where she implied that living with physical constraints had burdened Hawking and that being disabled was essentially a tragedy. Gadot was referred to as an "ableist" for her statement, which is still up on Twitter. As we all know, you can't please everyone, but, as of yet, Gadot has not issued an apology or further clarification regarding the statement.
This story is one of the stranger social media faux pas. Actor Lena Dunham gave away her pet canine Lamby in June, 2017. Included in her long, melodramatic statement on IG was an incorrect statement about re-homing: "If you have a similar situation, please know it's possible to responsibly re-home your rescue rather than sending them back into the shelter system."
As reported by Yahoo Celebrity, Robert Vazquez, a spokesperson for the BARC shelter in Brooklyn, took several issues with Dunham's statement, including her urging people to re-home pets.
Whatever happened to Lamby will remain a mystery, but Dunham did clap back to BARC's response to her re-homing Lamby on IG.
Actor Armie Hammer chose the wrong time to point out a, frankly, finicky issue he had with people posting selfies. As many in and around the entertainment industry already know, Marvel legend Stan Lee passed on November 12, 2018. Hammer saw it as an opportunity to point out a petty grievance he had about the trend of Stan Lee selfies by posting on Twitter, "No better way to commemorate an absolute legend than putting up a picture of yourself." It was met with widespread criticism, including actor Jeffrey Dean Morgan calling Hammer an "a**hat" in an also-deleted tweet.
Hammer apologized for his faux pas by tweeting, "While attempting to provide some unnecessary social commentary about the current selfie culture, I (in true a**hat form – thank you Jeffrey Dean Morgan) inadvertently offended many who were genuinely grieving the loss of a true icon. I want to apologize from the bottom of my heart and will be working on my Twitter impulse control."
Many celebrities love to talk the talk. And many of them can back it up by walking the walk. Count actor and rapper Shad Moss AKA Bow Wow, formerly known as Lil' Bow Wow, in the category of not walking the talk. At least on May 8, 2017, when he posted a stock photo of a private jet on IG with the caption, "Travel day," to make it look like he was travelling in luxury.
However, somebody who shared the same commercial flight on the same day as Bow Wow posted a Snapchat of the rapper on Twitter, essentially catching him red-handed in the act of a lie. Who knows what prompted Bow Wow to embellish the truth about his day of travel. The picture is still up on IG, however, for all to laugh at. Awkward!
Apparently, Ed O'Neill is just as lovable in real life as he is on Modern Family. The only thing is, he has a hard time recognizing people, even famous celebrities. As People reports, when he was on Ellen, he told his Finding Dory co-star that during an encounter with Britney Spears at an airport, he had no idea who she was, but took a selfie with her nonetheless.
As you can notice in the image, O'Neill looks completely oblivious to the fact that one of the most famous pop stars on the planet just asked to take a selfie with him.
The actor would find out the next day through his manager that Spears posted the selfie, which eventually garnered around 6,800 likes on Twitter!
Director James Gunn of Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy fame experienced repercussions for his past behavior in a major way. The Verge reports that from 2009 to 2012, Gunn posted a series of bizarre and taboo tweets meant as a joke. Disney fired Gunn from Guardians of the Galaxy 3 after the tweets were unearthed, despite petitions from every one of the major cast members.
Though he obviously didn't live out any of the tweets that he was held accountable for, there is obviously no excuse for writing what he did.
The Kardashians are used to having their way. So, it was no surprise when Kim Kardashian took to Twitter when her favourite foundation by Armani was discontinued. The tackiness wasn't so much the surprise as much as Kardashian misspelling Armani's first name in a since-deleted tweet: "Why did Georgio Armani discontinue my favorite foundation? I'm on my last bottle and everyone I know uses this! Please make it again!"
The social media manager for Armani played it cool with this reply on Twitter: "Dear Kim — let us know which one you need and we'll send it to you. And Mr. Armani's first name is Giorgio."
Yikes. Kardashian recovered with a tweet of her own: "Thank you so much and my apologies on the spelling error, this expecting mommy is a tad sleep deprived. ;-)"
According to The Mirror, in 2016 model Naomi Campbell took to IG and gave readers a little more than they bargained for in her promotional Adidas post, copying and pasting the entire email from her Adidas rep: "Naomi, so nice to see you in good spirits. Could you put something like: Thanks to my friend @gary.aspden and all at Adidas — loving these adidas 350 SPZL from adidas Spezial range. @adidasoriginals."
Campbell fixed the comment quickly, but not before fans immortalised the sponsor post mishap. Oh well, it could've been worse in the grand scheme of social media faux pas.
Speaking of sponsorship post mistakes, Scott Disick, famous for being Kourtney Kardashian's ex-beau, posted a jar of Bootea protein powder on IG with the intention of promoting the product to his 21 million followers, as documented by Elite Daily. However, instead of posting the comment that the Bootea reps wanted him to post, he posted the entire instructions given to him in the email by said reps: "Here you go, at 4pm est, write the below. Caption: Keeping up the summer workout routine with my @booteauk protein shake!"
Disick was roasted in the comments section of his since-deleted post. One comment was, "You had one job, Scott."
Even organizations as well-known as the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) have been known to commit faux pas on social media and beyond, particularly when it comes to diversity inclusion. According to The Huffington Post, during the 2014 Academy Awards, The Academy IG posted a picture of Penelope Cruz and Robert De Niro prepping to present an award backstage with the caption: "Hayek and De Niro prepping backstage #Oscars." They quickly took the post down, but the damage was done.
Cruz, a Spanish actor, and Hayek, a Mexican actor, may both have dark hair, but they are otherwise very different.
The Gaza strip has always been a place of conflict, and recently, many artists including Lauryn Hill and U2 have called off concerts because of the sociopolitical tension in the area. Justin Bieber has performed there in the past, but managed to upset an entire population by proclaiming on Twitter that Israel would be his next concert destination.
Many fans took to the comments section and tried to correct Bieber by writing tweets like, "It's Palestine honey," and others that were much more embarrassing. In this instance, Bieber didn't do anything wrong, per se, but rather accidentally landed himself in the middle of an age-old political debate.
Not even Oprah is perfect all the time. In 2012, the actress, talkshow host, entrepreneur, philanthropist, activist and pop culture icon went on Twitter to promote Microsoft's Surface Tablet. The catch? She posted her tweet from an Apple iPad. As you could imagine, Twitter users got a kick out of this, writing comments such as:
"How much more would Microsoft have had to pay you to get you to post that tweet from a Surface instead of an iPad?"
Let's be honest. Money isn't a concern with Oprah. In this instance, it was clearly an honest mistake that happened to entertain the Twitter-verse for ages.
This one's embarrassing. Season 6 of 90 Day Fiancé star Fernanda Flores accidentally posted a photo of her boyfriend, Jonathan Rivera, that gave her followers a little more than they bargained for. She accidentally posted an image from her personal archive on IG Live. As USA Today reports, she later apologized, saying,
"I'm so sorry from the bottom of my heart that you had to see that. It was a huge mistake."
According to E! News, in a bizarre series of events, singer Lorde posted a picture of a bathtub on IG, with the caption, "And III will always love you," in reference to singer Whitney Houston. Houston and her daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown both passed away in situations involving bathtubs. It was a poor choice of words, as Lorde admitted after taking down the post upon receiving mounds of criticism.
Lorde issued an apology proclaiming: "Extremely extremely poor chosen quote. I'm so sorry for offending anyone — I hadn't even put this together, I was just excited to take a bath. I'm an idiot. Love Whitney forever and ever. Sorry again."
Hey, it happens. However, not everyone who makes these kinds of mistakes has 6.3 million followers on Instagram.
According to The Independent, in 2014, British singer Rita Ora announced to her 3.9 million Twitter followers that if her (since-deleted) tweet garnered 100,000 retweets by the following Monday, then she would release her new single. Ora's tweet only received 2,000 retweets, 2% of her audacious goal.
Since then, Ora claimed on Twitter that the tweet was a result of her account being hacked: "By the way my Twitter got hacked somebody is threatening to release new music I've worked really hard on. Nothing comes out until I'm ready."
Well, she tried. It didn't exactly go as planned. Who knows, maybe it was a hacker.
Sheen has been in the public eye quite a lot over the last 10 years. After his "tiger blood" rants and getting fired from Two and a Half Men, all very public meltdowns, he attempted to direct-message singer and musician Justin Bieber on IG in December of 2011.
Instead, Mashable reports that he tweeted it to his 11.5 million Twitter followers, writing, "310-954-7277 call me bro. C." After receiving thousands of text messages and calls from fans, he took down the tweet, and, one can only assume, had to change his number after the debacle.
Not everyone means what they say, and not everyone says what they mean. Actor Zac Efron's IG statement on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day in 2016 belongs in the latter category. According to E! News, the High School Musical actor took to IG to honour King, but, oddly, simultaneously humble-bragged about his 10 million followers. To say the least, it was an insensitive tweet.
Efron later apologized on Twitter and IG with the statement: "I have nothing but the greatest admiration and respect for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
I realize that last night's post was completely insensitive and I apologize to anyone who I may have offended. So sorry. Z."
Hey, at least the actor owned up to his mistake.
Since Kevin Hart was (temporarily) named the host of this year's Academy Awards, some offensive comments he'd made on social media in the past were unearthed by many publications and brought to the attention of the public. Now, Hart is facing considerable backlash.
Hart aggravated the issue further when he refused to apologize when the Academy gave him an ultimatum. Instead, he issued this IG statement:
"So I just got a call from the Academy, and that call basically said, 'Kevin, apologize for your old tweets or we're going to have to move and find another host. They're talking about the tweets from 2009, 2010. I chose to pass, I passed on the apology."
This refusal outraged many.
It's safe to say that Kevin Hart hasn't had a good year. Let's make one thing clear: a family can celebrate their child's birthday however they would like to celebrate it. But when they share photos of the event to the world on a public forum, and the birthday celebration has a particularly sensitive theme, then the photos are going to cause problems. Such was the case in November of 2018, when Hart's wife, Eniko Parrish, posted photos of their son Kenzo's Cowboys and Indians-themed birthday party on IG.
Us Weekly reports that some of the comments read, "Cowboys and Indians? Can you not afford a publicist who would explain the reality [of] such a terrible idea?"
The pictures are still up on Parrish's IG, and some of the comments are quite bad. Clearly, there wasn't any offense intended, but, regardless, they did something offensive, and hopefully they learn from it. That's all we ever can do, right?
This one is hilarious! I mean, of all the social media faux pas one could commit, this one ranks at the top of most entertaining. Apparently, instead of searching privately, actor Dean Norris mistakenly tweeted a risqué phrase in 2018.
The best part? The Breaking Bad actor still hasn't removed the tweet, which has become a place for followers to answer his very public search by posting answers to his search inquiry along with other funny Norris GIFs created solely for the now-legendary tweet.
We'll never truly know what Norris was thinking on that fateful day, but perhaps the tweet gives us a little too much insight into his search engine preferences. Or, perhaps, just maybe, it could've been all for fun. Who really knows, these days?

In Parts 1 & 2 I shared 16 of the 40. Here I will be sharing the next 8.
You can get Part 1 here: 40 Things I've Learnt In 40 Years – Part 1
…and Part 2 here: 40 Things I've Learnt In 40 Years – Part 2
#17: Since you must think… Think BIG.
I've learnt that not many people think for themselves. That's one thing we are too happy to outsource. However, if you are going to make your life count, you have to think for yourself…and while you're at it, you can as well think BIG. As you think, so you are. Someone puts it this way: "the only difference between building a $500K dollar business vs. $10M is deciding. It's that simple." -@danmartell. You have to think…why not just think BIG.
#18: Thinking Big will get you into trouble.
Thinking BIG will get you into trouble. Guaranteed! But don't be scared, it's "good trouble". You will have to let go of some people you actually like. You may have to sleep less, working more. You will have to endure very hurtful things that will be said about you. Keep moving. Like Joseph in the Bible, they are all still going to try and be your friend. But in the meantime, keep moving forward. Keep dreaming BIG. Keep taking territories.
#19: Some people actually like you!
Yes, some people actually like you. Enduring so much conflict can make you become paranoid if not properly handled. Yes, some people will make themselves into enemies but never forget that some people really do like you…sincerely. Focus on the positive relationships. Invest in them. The negative ones will fade into oblivion. Some people actually like you!
#20: Don't Be Tempted To Wrestle With A Pig. Don't Do It!
I see this happen all the time. A honorable person rolling up his/her sleeves and wrestling with a pig. No matter how provoked you are, DON'T DO IT!!! By the time the wrestling is over, only one person would have gotten dirtier…you!
#21: 1 + 1 = 2
It's as simple as that: 1+1=2. That's the foundation of discernment. Many times I have looked at 1+1 and have wondered what the outcome would be. Cracking my head, refusing to see the obvious. I have learnt that 1+1=2 …Simple. You're dating a guy and he pushes you when he's angry, then you're still wondering if he will be a wife beater? My sister, 1+1 = 2. You're dating a lady and she keeps flirting with your friends and you're still wondering if she'll be faithful or promiscuous? My brother, 1+1=2…and I can go on and on with examples. It's straight forward: 1+1=2.
#22: Some people won't be able to stand your greatness.
That's the harsh reality. Some people won't be able to stand your greatness. Some people will be comfortable with being your friend while you're mediocre. But the moment you move in the direction of being great, they can't handle it. It's time to kiss them good-bye. Like someone said: "I have the gift of good-byes" 🙂
#23: Be Loyal
I've learnt to be loyal. Loyalty is fast becoming a scarce commodity. It's really hard to find truly loyal people. I've learnt that loyalty is like a seed. The more I plant it the more I reap it. Be loyal and you'll be amazed at the harvest.
#24: There are no alternatives to prayer
Consistent, concerted & intense prayer is hard. Period. Sweet, but hard. That's the paradox of prayer. I've learnt that there is no alternative to prayer (for the Christian). However, the rewards of consistent, concerted & intense prayer are out of this world!
That's it for now. 24 down 16 to go.
Do you have any thoughts on what was shared? Please share your thoughts below…

Let me tell you a story about a couple that immigrated to the United States from China in the late 1980's. They arrived with just enough to start and run their own small business in the heart of the Mission district in San Francisco, California. A couple of years later, their first child – a daughter – was born and they closed down their chop shop (Cantonese-style roast shop) briefly after. While the couple worked day and night to provide for their new family, the newborn was cared for by her grandparents and immediate family members. Just as the young daughter was reaching the age of three, the couple was expecting their second child – a son. The woman stayed home briefly to care for the children while the man slaved away from the crack of dawn to sunset in a sweatshop in the China Basin district. By the time the daughter turned five, the whole family moved out of their single-bedroom studio in North Beach to the southwestern part of San Francisco – in a house that the woman's youngest sister bought – where the couple would pay an honest rent for a two-bedroom in-law for the next fourteen years.
In the middle of the housing crash in the late 2000's, the couple have finally saved what they deemed "enough" for a single-family home and ended up settling down in their new house less than a mile away from where their family has been living. The daughter was far from happy with the arrangement as the house was "really small and in horrible shape" in her opinion, and can't see why her parents can't just save longer to buy a better property. Granted, the neighborhood is relatively safe and often sought after by families, the house was simply not what the daughter had in mind for a "home" until she gets married off or can afford to live on her own. The only reasons she didn't make too big of a fuss about it was that a) she finally gets her own room and b) she gets to live there for free while being able to start saving for her own place – or so she thought.
Raised in a traditional Chinese family, the daughter has been taught at a young age the values of family and the responsibilities of caring for your parents as repayment as you grow up.
Almost a year later, their son suddenly passed away. The couple had to rip through whatever savings they had left and depended on crowd-funding and community donations for the memorial service and burial. It was a tough time and even tougher position for the couple to ask their only living child to start to financially help them out, especially because she was just barely into her second year in college and recently departed from her part-time job. Being raised in a traditional Chinese family, the daughter has been taught at a young age the values of family and the responsibilities of caring for your parents as repayment as you grow up – she saw this coming and was prepared to take on the responsibilities. She immediately dropped all of her classes to free up her availability and create flexibility for a new full-time job and was hired into a telecommunications company as a customer service associate within a month. Immediately, she assumed financial responsibility for household utilities and "luxury necessities" like their mobile phone plans and TV/internet/etc. while simultaneously helping with a small portion of the mortgage every month. This left the daughter with just enough financial flexibility to pay her accruing credit card debt, set aside a small amount into her savings account, and whatever was left would be adequate for seldom leisure and travel expenses. After saving for two years, the daughter was suddenly asked by the woman for assistance with the property tax, amounting in thousands of dollars which resulted in the daughter having to deplete a third of her savings. The following years were better and the daughter was able to save up what she had just paid but in between, the man found himself in desperate need for a new car as both his work and family cars broke down beyond repair at the same time (both were at least fifteen years old). The daughter calculated that she had a healthy amount of savings to be able to pay for a new car for her dad so she did exactly just that. Fortunately, this was also the same time the woman decided that it was the right time to tell the daughter that they've been financially stable for quite a while and that her mortgage contribution is no longer needed. That left the daughter with a little bit more wiggle room than she had initially thought. The daughter, for the third time, began to build her savings while still paying for the household bills and the new vehicle purchase.
Over time, the daughter began to feel the stress her job has created and her existing OCD and developing anxiety was worsening day-by-day. It was beginning to take a toll on her and after seven years at her company and once again calculating her savings, she finally found the opportunity to walk away. She discussed it with the couple and coincidentally, the man totaled his car the week prior but had salvaged his work vehicle previously, so he technically still has a car. The daughter was now left with even more wiggle room as her monthly expenses became pretty reasonable. She took a short break and traveled in and out of the city for about two months before settling to help out at her husband's business. Working in the food industry, she's making just enough to get by but is happier than ever before. Recently, her parents has been frequently asking her to sign onto their property and bank accounts in preparation for the "what if one day." This leaves the daughter to think about how much she really hated that house and how it has technically prevented her from ever purchasing her own home. In case you haven't figured it out by now, the daughter is me.
That house is the biggest burden I've ever had and it's not even mine yet.
My parents have worked very hard their entire lives to provide for me and my late brother and have always said that "the house will eventually be yours," but they've never once pondered on the possibility that maybe I just don't want to have anything to do with that house. While it's great that I technically didn't have to pay the full mortgage nor down payment for the house but given our situation, I also haven't been able to save for my own house because of it. In my parents' minds, the house is a gift that they can leave me for when they are in a more peaceful place but to me, that house is the biggest burden I've ever had and it's not even mine yet. I've always dreamed of being able to buy my own home with money that I've worked for, I've never once entertained the idea of an inheritance because I was brought up with better morals and ethics than that. I know many could only dream to be in my position and my concerns might appear petty to most, but the reality is that I just don't like things being handed to me. I enjoyed it as a child, but I enjoy being able to pay for my own things even more. I enjoy not having to listen to my mother nag about me "wasting money" because it's not her money to worry about. I enjoy being able to gloat to my more fortunate friends that I actually know the value of a dollar while their offspring will never survive if they ever become poor. I actually have to try very hard to be grateful for this "gift" because honestly, I'm quite bitter that that's all I have and I literally have to wait until I'm old and creaky to get it.
In a perfect world, people start families and settle into homes by their early thirties. In San Francisco, one is lucky enough that they can feed themselves, let alone raise a family and own a property. It was a personal choice to leave a decent paying job and if I can't buy my own property in the future, I can only blame myself (then again, living in SF on that salary, I wouldn't have been able to buy one anyway). It's also a personal choice to continue staying in my city of birth. I've lost most of my drive throughout the years and have zero passion for anything anymore, hence I've stopped searching for career options. I'm perfectly satisfied working alongside the Mr. and helping him grow his business and things will get better. Running a business in our case is a means to an end, but for some other people I know, it's simply a pastime activity. For now, I'll still be carrying a house that's not mine and will be reluctant to receive. Who knows? Maybe my views will change one day, but I still can't help but resent the situation that I'm left in.

Blueberry Plants
Do blueberry plants last over winter if they are left outside and are not watered?
Certified GKH Gardening Expert
As long as they are in the ground, most likely they are fine. Plants need far less water in the winter than in the summer and the ground normally holds more than enough to keep them alive.
The issue I see could be that without snow, the plants may not have had the insulation they are accustomed to, and that can hurt the plants. If you fear the plants may be dead, this article will help you tell that:

While the US desperately needs better infrastructure, the current White House plan will not work. The proposal relies way too much on already financially pinched state and local governments. Moreover, rising interest rates make borrowing more costly, lower personal income tax rates make purchasing municipal bonds less advantageous to the wealthy, and deductibility caps on state and local taxes make raising taxes to pay off the bonds much more difficult.
Incapacitated Infrastructure
In addition construction cost are going through the roof due to a serious shortage of labor and rapidly rising material costs.

But you must understand that hanging any type of curtain in your room is not enough if you truly want to stand apart from others and to make your interior truly magnificent.
Choosing the right curtains for your abode can be truly overwhelming since there is a throng of different options available in the market. From different choices available for curtain fabric, rod and color of the curtains, the job can get really difficult at times. But you need to choose the perfect one for yourself while buying the curtains since they are heavily priced. So, it will become a big loss for you if the curtains do not perform well.
Perhaps choosing the right curtain fabric for your home is the most compelling task while you are looking for buying curtains for your beautiful abode. The right curtain fabric will bring out the beauty from the designs that you have in your mind. Moreover, it is an essential step since the durability as well as the longevity of the curtains completely depends upon the type of fabric that you choose.
"What material should I choose?"
"How many fabric materials are available?"

"Okay! I need help to choose the best curtain fabric online India".
Aren't these the exact things that you are having? Yes! It is natural to have these things cross your mind since there is a swarm of curtain fabric online; so choosing the best one for yourself can become highly frenzied at times. But there is no need to get worried; just follow the lead and you will come to know everything.
When you are chasing the best fabric for your curtain then go beyond the colours and the designs. Let some screws get loose but feel the fabric with your own fingers by keeping the braces of "being ashamed" aside. Feel the fine texture of your fabric; see how the fabric sheaths and lines up; and above all check the transparency of the fabric before vouching for it.
Are you ready to attain expertise in the fabrics for the curtains? Then, make up your mind, keep scrolling down and start taking your notes since we are about to unveil the knowledge of fabric materials for you.
If you think that choosing the right type of curtain and fabric is enough then "my friend" you are mistaken. That was just the beginning of what promises to be a really long journey. Though choosing the right fabric and best-suited curtain design is important but it does not imply that you can neglect the matter of "how to hang the curtains". The curtain rods and accessories are as important as the curtain itself since they magnify the beauty and elegance of the interiors.
Generally, the foremost thing that is required to hang your curtain is a curtain rod. The rod will weave through the curtain to cover your window section properly. But you need to be very careful while purchasing the rods since you do not need your rod to be of the exact size that of your curtain to bring out the real elegance.
Whether the accessories are hidden or exposed, they really present themselves as a major design aspect to set the ultimate fashion statement for you. So! Refurbish your mumbo jumbos and be an expert in no time.

Films like The Expendables and Piranha 3D, etc, have been around for a few months now, but two upcoming movies are tipped to be the start of a wave of B-movies/spoofs/B-movie spoofs.
First featured as a fake trailer in Quentin Taratino and Robert Rodriguez's Grindhouse double bill in 2007, Robert Rodriguez has made it into a full feature film, starring Robert de Niro, Don Johnson, Michelle Rodriguez (and Jeff Fahey from Lost) and Lindsay Lohan (?!). It looks like an out'n'out guns'n'knives-fest that doesn't take itself too seriously. This is set to be a big movie at the end of the year. Rodriguez's Mariachi trilogy was brilliant and Machete stars Danny Trejo and Cheech Marin from Desperado – should be a good one!
UK release date: 26 November
Whilst The Twilight Saga carries on milking money from the cashcow that is teenage girls, Vampire Sucks takes the p!$$ out of the whole franchise and the obsession with vampires (seen all three Twilights, but still don't get it…).
UK release date: 15 October

On November 1st, the Boy Scouts of America distributed grocery bags into the Central Florida community for this year's Scouting for Food food drive. On November 8th, you responded by donating over 400,000lbs of food! Thanks to your generous support, local boy scouts picked up and delivered bags 96,000lbs of donated nonperishable foods to 13 different sites across Central Florida and the remaining straight to other Central Florida agencies.
Unloading trucks, trailers, vans, and cars, Boy Scouts and volunteers sorted through donated goods and packed family boxes that were picked up later by over 120 of Second Harvest's feeding partners. Those agencies can now provide more food for our Central Florida neighbors, just in time for the holidays, all thanks to your generous support!
Thank you to everybody who donated to this year's Scouting for Food drive. With the help of your kindness and our Boy Scouts of America, volunteers, and partner agencies, more kids, struggling families, and seniors will not have to decide between having enough food and paying for rent, utilities, or their prescriptions. It's a true team effort to fight hunger in our community. Thank you for being a part of that!

Franny and Zooey
Paperback(Centennial Edition)
"Perhaps the best book by the foremost stylist of his generation" ( New York Times), J. D. Salinger's Franny and Zooey collects two works of fiction about the Glass family originally published in The New Yorker.
"Everything everybody does is soI don't knownot wrong, or even mean, or even stupid necessarily. But just so tiny and meaningless andsad-making. And the worst part is, if you go bohemian or something crazy like that, you're conforming just as much only in a different way."
A novel in two halves, Franny and Zooey brilliantly captures the emotional strains and traumas of entering adulthood. It is a gleaming example of the wit, precision, and poignancy that have made J. D. Salinger one of America's most beloved writers.

Most people know J.D. Salinger and have read "Catcher in the Rye," but "Franny and Zooey" is a true gem. This is a small book about family and religious beliefs. This book will make you laugh out loud and cry. It is witty, funny and sad. If you want to see another side of J.D. Salinger, read this. I've read it a few times over the years and always find it new and enjoyable. Franny comes home a changed woman, and it is discovered that she's had a breakdown. She has begun reciting the Lords Prayer over and over much to the dismay of her intellectual family. The way her parents and brother Zooey deal with this is amusing and touching. If you love a classic than this is one to read. Forget about "Catcher in the Rye," try this book that will touch your heart and your mind! After this you'll see J.D. Salinger in a whole new light.
I absolutely hated Catcher in the Rye, thus was somewhat apprehensive about reading this work of Salinger. However, a freind continued to assure me I would love it, and once I picked it up, I actually did. It does have that slight hint of whining that Holden did in Catcher but otherwise, this actually has a story line and a plot and a reason for being. It's touching and makes you think and gave me a little slice of compassion. Though I will admit, you have to be in a certain mood in order to read this. Do not come looking for a happy-go-lucky, marvellous adventure, but rather a healing bit of insight for those weary with life.
Read it! do it for the Fat Lady. Franny cries and cries and cries and screams about her tortured addiction to the Jesus Prayer. Zooey yells at her. Perfect brother/sister relationship. "anyone over 16 without an ulcer's a spy" - zooey
This isn¿t for everyone. This isn¿t for me. The book is all dialogue and description. Which isn¿t inherently a bad thing but in this instance it didn¿t really do anything for me. There are a few interesting exchanges, mostly between Zooey and his mother, but mostly I just found it all uninteresting. I didn¿t feel as if anything had happened. Or that anything had been explained. Zooey talks and talks and then finally stops. That¿s it.
If it weren't for the fact that this was written by Salinger, I might have flung it away in frustration mid-way into Zooey. Franny amused me, as did Salinger's somewhat chaotic writing style - all tirades and mind-numbing rambles. Still, I'm glad I persevered and finished it, for the ending was enjoyable. I liked it, but it's still going into the resale box, rather then back onto my bookshelf.
I read Catcher in the Rye years ago when I was a teenager and was totally underwhelmed. I thought the story was boring and Holden Caulfield didn¿t interest me at all. (I think I had just read Jane Eyre and Rochester was my idea of a ¿hero¿ for a story.) I realize now I was probably too young¿and too naive¿to have a clue what Salinger was trying to do. However, the novel left such a bad taste in my mouth that I vowed never to read another Salinger book ever. Luckily for me, this year Eliza (girlunderglass) persuaded me to change my mind.Franny and Zooey is a wonderful and unique (at least for me) book. The first and shorter part of the novel, ¿Franny¿ introduces us to Franny Glass, a college coed who arrives on a train to spend a special football weekend with her Ivy League boyfriend at his school. I went to a small liberal arts college and I remember spending a couple of weekends like that¿except I didn¿t have to take a train because my school was coed. The second part of the story is called ¿Zooey¿ and introduces us to the Glass family and especially Franny¿s brother, Zooey who is about 5 years older than she but closest to her because they are the two youngest siblings. This is a character driven novel with essentially no plot. We learn about the characters by their interactions,, conversations, and observations made by the ¿narrator¿ who is actually a much older brother that we meet at the very beginning of the book. I found the characters wonderful and the conversations fascinating and revealing and the descriptions vivid. Bottom line: I laughed, I cried, and I often stopped to ¿ponder¿ about these people. I can hardly wait to find the other stories he¿s written about this family. Highly recommended.
"Franny and Zooey" was unremarkable to me; I'm really surprised to see such a high average rating. My favorite part of the slim paperback is personal; I got it from my parent's bookshelf years ago and within it is the inscription "To Nate and Donna from Bill and Nan Christmas 1964". Knowing that they had read it when it was relatively new and while I was a baby somehow made it more poignant, though the book itself was only "OK". There is something deeper to that that I just love: in a larger sense, despite the transience of all of our lives, humanity passing down its stories and art from generation to generation. Isn't that one of the great things about reading?
One of my very favorite books, and my favorite Salinger.
For some reason, I¿d never gotten around to reading any non-Catcher Salinger until recently, but then I read Nine Stories a couple of months ago, and a friend mentioned some parallels between this and The Royal Tenenbaums, so I thought I¿d just continue the Salinger kick and see what it¿s all about. So far it¿s similar thematically and emotionally to Salinger¿s other stuff, but perhaps a bit more subtle and gentle.Upon finishing¿ it¿s just alright. A few really great bits, but it doesn¿t really hold together or go anywhere. Reminded me of Fathers and Sons in that way. Maybe I¿m just not that fond of straight-up character sketches.
I totally connected with this book on so many levels. A brother helping his sister/spiritual seeking/intellectual/emotional. One of my all time favorites.Reading this led me to "Way of the Pilgrim" an Eastern Orthodox spiritual tale.
Snippets of life on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.
Part of the Glass Saga. I wouldn't start with this one if you are just getting into Salinger though. He definitely has a distinctive style that takes some getting used to. That said, I loved this book-- you can't help but feel like the characters are your own. Wonderful.
Franny and Zooey are sister and brother, who grew up in quite a large, educated and eccentric family. The two chapter story pivots around Franny's interest in a religious book that she found in her elder brothers' room, the 'Jesus Prayer' that she is saying and her near nervous breakdown. I loved chapter one of this book and even though chapter two focused largely on religion it was still interesting. The further explanation about the use of theatre in the novel, as described in the Yale lecture was also thought provoking.
I love this book. Not sure why.
Ultimately this is a sharp, thoughtful, funny study of some particular relationships in a particular family at a particular moment. The scene with Zooey and his mother in the bathroom are a joy, and the development of the relationship between him and his brother Buddy, first as we read Buddy's letter and later as we learn about zooey's feelings towards him, have a depth that could justify rereading as often as Zooey seemingly rereads the letter. The mysticism is so-so, the final revelation is rather damp, the connection between the Jesus prayer and various eastern mantras is obvious but it's a nice moment when franny mentions it right after it has occurred to the reader. A few notes of the somewhat tiresome caulfield-esque adolescent "phony"-phobia creep in but for the most part, while not 100% likeable it is enjoyable to spend time in this family's company.
Started reading this one right after finishing 'The Catcher in the Rye', because I liked that one so much. Also really liked this book, not as much as 'The Catcher in the Rye', but still, a very nice novel.Again characters that are estranged from the rest of the world, outsiders, but also very different, because the characters are older. Gives you something to think about...I'm kinda feeling sorry Salinger didn't write that much...
The siblings in the book kinda get annoying that they complain a lot. I also found the mother annoying when she was talking to zooey and just was wanting to know everything. I was annoyed a lot through this book.
Arrogant young siblings are talking about how boring and illiterate the rest of the world is. I hate self-pity but I still hate more this kind of patronizing pity for others shown by people who think they are brlliant übermenschen
Even though critics hate this, I love how much Salinger put into the Glass family. I wish there was more about them (now that he's passed away, perhaps some obscure manuscripts about them will show up). The Glass family is so unique and witty, I love them. The two main scenes in "Zooey", the bathroom scene and the living room scene, are really spectacular. The bathroom scenes in one of my favorites. Still can't tell if I like Zooey or not, but mostly I find his sarcasm funny. I call everyone "buddy" just like he does-made me smile when I realized this the first time I read it.
Rereading J. D. Salinger I am impressed with the books that his characters are reading. In the beginning section of Franny and Zooey, Lane Coutell is engaged by his classmate, Ray Sorensen in a brief interchange regarding Rilke's "Duino Elegies" which they both are supposedly reading for a class on modern European literature. While this is brief, merely an aside, reading and literature intrudes again within a few pages. Franny has arrived on a train and she and Lane settle in to relax at a cafe, one frequented by the "intellectual fringe" of students at the college, to which, apparently, Lane and Franny belong. Soon the conversation includes references to Flaubert and Dostoevsky and the true nature of the "bon mot". The contrast between Lane, who has written a paper on Flaubert (a writer whose search for authenticity is his hallmark) and Franny whose search for authenticity in her own life is floundering seems key to this short story. Disappointingly, Franny seeks solace in mysticism (The Way of a Pilgrim).
A friend's daughter, a prolific reader and 13-year-old, read "Catcher in the Rye" and immediately checked out the rest of Salinger from the library. "Franny and Zooey" is on her top 10 favorites of all time. And with Salinger in the news, I finally picked up this book. While I still prefer "Catcher," I liked this one too. I hope he has a safe full of manuscripts!
The best of JD I think is this book.I have read this book so much it has become personal. I think once in a while you find a book that captures your life's essence, your mythologies and sentimentalities all in one book. This book does this for me.
Like Salinger's most popular book, "The Catcher in the Rye," this one is basically just one long rant that isn't always constructed in the most understandable or orderly of ways - which is what makes it enjoyable instead of tedious to read.This book was originally 2 novelettes published separately in the New Yorker. The "Franny" part is where most of the ranting about society comes in. The 2nd part, "Zooey," is basically an analysis of Franny's ranting.While it isn't the average fiction - no plot, only 4 characters, etc. - it certainly has good philosophy and ideas, and makes you think. The realistic dialogue is well done as well.
When we were teenagers, my friends and I thought J.D. Salinger was the height of sophistication: at turns ironic, falling-down funny and forever disdainful of convention and phoniness. This book, at least, hasn't worn that well for me. It consists of two long stories about different members of the Glass family, a theatrical family whose seven children are (were--the eldest, Seymour, killed himself) all brilliant, precocious and either eccentric or crazy, depending on your point of view.Salinger has wonderfully evocative, comic gifts, which are in full display in the scene, in the first story, of Lane and Franny in the restaurant on the day of the big football game, and in the second story, of Bessie, the mother, insisting on entering the bathroom to carry on an extended conversation while her son Zooey is lounging in the bath.But neither story has a plot, unless you count the fact that in both stories Franny, the youngest Glass child at age 20, is obsessed with saying the Jesus prayer ("Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on me) over and over. It's an obsession that disturbs her date, Lane, and her brother, Zooey, though in neither story is there any resolution of this conflict. By the end of the second story, the brilliant dialogue that Salinger writes has become tiresome, while Zooey's constant repetition of how he hates phonies winds up being, you guessed it, phony in its own right.
This is, simply put, a remarkable book.If you want action, look elsewhere. This isn't a conventionally exciting book. It's dialogue-heavy. Most of it takes place in a single setting. Not much happens, in a physical sense.But if you want a book that does wonders with familial themes, uses dialogue to amazing effect, examines religious confusion and just generally packs a huge emotional wallop, look no further. This is your book.I'm in awe of Salinger, I really am. He has an amazing gift for revealing the inner workings of a person's mind without directly stating anything. He gives the reader all the pieces, then lets her put them together for herself. His dialogue has a real theatrical feel to it; it's almost as though we're actually there with Franny and Zooey, watching their conversations play out. It's amazing, pure and simple.You should read it. You really, really should.

Kris Jenner was recently caught in a lie on social media, and the reality TV star is reportedly completely humiliated. The momager is mortified by the Instagram Photoshop fail, but luckily, her daughter Kylie Jenner is helping her shake off the haters.
Kylie has been dealing with her fair share of online haters, so it's no surprise that she is the one Kris is asking the help of in the scandal.
A source close to the Kardashian clan explained that Kris is embarrassed by the allegations.
Kris rarely posts pictures showing off her body like that but the woman has been hitting the gym a lot lately, and she wanted to proudly share the results.
But it blew in her face! Although everyone photoshops their photos a little, the whole scandal has left Kris looking like a fake, and she is humiliated.
But is there really bad publicity when it comes to the Kardashian-Jenners?
'On the bright side, her post went viral, so she is going to make extra money since it was an ad for a body cleanse. Kris is trying to find the silver lining. She [Kylie Jenner] is telling her to mom to shake off the haters because she has gone through the same stupid thing. Kris' whole family love that she feels sexy enough to post a picture like that,' the insider explained.
What is shocking is that her followers not only thought the star tweaked the picture a little but that she photoshopped her face onto a younger body!
The photo which is a promotion to Flat Tummy Tea, shows Kris wearing a revealing sports bra and workout leggings.
Sadly for the reality TV star, many people did not buy it, and they accused her of having done extensive editing on the photo.
Do you believe Kris' photo is mostly real or is it really completely different from the reality?

Oof… Just oof. The Rays return home on the heels of another big loss to the Royals. This time Tampa Bay got slammed 11-1, after Jeremy Hellickson put together a 2-2/3 inning, five run, outing. Cesar Ramos wasn't much better in relief, relinquishing five runs in one inning. If someone can explain how a team, that was 20 games over .500, loses to a team that's coming off a five game losing streak (a game removed, that is), I'm all ears. Moving forward, enter the Angels.
The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim haven't fared to well in 2013. Marred by injuries, the 58-71 Angels are 6-9 in their last 15, having been outscored 73-62 in that span. It doesn't help that Josh Hamilton is hitting .235 and the team has a 4.40 ERA — though they've posted a 1.27 ERA in the last five games. The Rays are mildly better in the same span of time, having gone 8-7. However when you stretch things back 18 games, the Rays were in the throes of their worst losing streak of the season. That they bounced back from that and haven't lost their relevance is a positive.
Tampa Bay has averaged 5.2 runs in taking 12-of-13 in the series against the Angels, including the last six by a 42-14 margin. However, the Rays have some offensive holes that need to be filled — namely Wil Myers and Desmond Jennings. Myers is 5-for-his-last-37 (all singles) with only two RBI, while Jennings is 5-for-his-last-54 with five runs. On the other hand, David DeJesus is 5-for-12 with two runs since joining the Rays, and Evan Longoria has heated up once more — cough, even though he went 0-4 Monday, striking out in a pivotal wRISP situation.
CJ Wilson: Per Rotowire, "Wilson gave up one run on four hits through 7.1 innings Tuesday, picking up a no-decision against the Indians." A tough lefty by all accounts, Wilson has not fared well against the Rays in his recent outings, going 0-3 with a 6.56 ERA in his last four starts against Tampa Bay — including a loss in the 2011 ALDS while with Texas. Ben Zobrist had a good amount of success against Wilson last season, hitting two homers and a double in eight at-bats in their match-ups. Key match-ups: Yunel Escobar (2-6, 2 BB), Sam Fuld (1-2, RBI), James Loney (1-4), Sean Rodriguez (5-15, HR, 2 RBI, 3 BB), Ben Zobrist (6-23, 2 2B, 2 HR, 6 RBI, 2 BB).
Jerome Williams: Per Rotowire, "Williams will have his next turn in the rotation skipped, the Orange County Register reports." Williams has appeared in five games against the Rays in the last three years, accumulating 14-1/3 innings of work. The journeyman pitcher has reinvented himself, becoming a ground ball specialist of sorts. He won't blow you away with incredible velocity, however Williams can hurt you if he keeps the ball down. He is apt to leave the ball in hittable locations, so hopefully the Rays can force a mistake. Key match-ups: Kelly Johnson (8-19, RBI, 2 BB), Matt Joyce (2-5, 2B, HR, RBI, BB).
Garrett Richards: Fangraphs notes, "Richards has not been able to actually, you know, strike guys out. This despite a good swinging strike rate (10%). Maybe it's the fact that he's primarily a fastball/slider guy — lefties had a .389 wOBA against Richards last season."
- Last year, the Angels lost nine of 10 games against the Rays, including all three at Tropicana Field.
- Just make contact — the Angels have 89 errors, third most in the AL.
- Longoria is hitting .307 with eight homers, 22 RBI and 22 runs in 29 career games against the Rays. Ben Zobrist is batting .345 with four homers and nine RBIs over the last eight in the series.
- Hernandez has gone 0-4 despite a 2.44 ERA in eight starts versus Los Angeles while with Cleveland. Josh Hamilton is 1 for his last 12 against Hernandez, though that hit left the yard.
- Matt Moore remains on track for a Minor League rehab start on Thursday, but the site is still to be determined. Moore would be on track to join the rotation Sept. 3 in Anaheim if there are no setbacks. The left-hander, who is 14-3 with a 3.41 ERA this season, has not pitched in a game since July 28 against the Yankees in New York.

Posted on 27/09/2017
SDL Property Partners has been developed as a new approach to managing properties, combining a personal touch with back office and compliance support. Our managing director explains the opportunities in leasehold management which led to the launch of our partners programme scheme:
"The latest figures from the Department for Communities and Local Government (2015/16) show there are an estimated 4.2 million leasehold properties in England. This includes 2.9 million leasehold flats. In addition, the government estimate that between £2.5 and £3.5 billion is paid each year in service charges. And each year, more properties come into the market; of just over 160,000 new build dwellings built in 2017, a quarter of these are flats which will usually require professional management.
"Managing agents can broadly be split into two camps. On the one side, there is the large scale corporate approach, with centralised services, slick approach to compliance issues and greater use of technology, yet often lacking that 'personal touch'. Counterbalancing this are the much smaller scale property managers; the 'people on the ground'. They know everything about the area and the building, they know the residents by name, but often fall short when it comes to both internal and customer facing systems, as well as up-to-date compliance knowledge. With currently 83 individual statutory compliance issues around tenant administration, health and safety, and company law, etc, that's a lot for a smaller business to keep up with.
"We believe that the future of the sector rests in the middle ground between these two vastly different approaches. We have launched SDL Property Partners, a partners programme for property management, as a 'best of both worlds' approach. It is ideally suited to property managers who want to work for themselves, smaller property management companies who want to scale up, and letting agents who want to diversify into property management. The scheme provides corporate backing in the form of technology, business support and compliance to smaller firms and sole practitioners, who can focus on managing the properties and providing a personal service.
"It's no secret that many estate and letting agents are planning to broaden their existing service offerings and investigate other potential revenue streams. The fact is that many letting agents already have to deal with property management issues on a daily basis. If the tenant already sees them as a 'one-stop-shop' for all their property needs, then why not harness this and turn it into a business venture, creating an actual single point of customer contact? The first call we received from our initial teaser campaign was from an existing letting agent interested in setting up a leasehold management company to complement their existing business, so the appetite is most definitely there.
"It is our belief that a greater emphasis on both compliance and customer service should help to drive up standards across the industry. However, we do believe there are further issues to tackle. There is no getting away from the fact that estate and block management sometimes gets bad press and we see this as mainly due to the issue of regulation. Ultimately, there is nothing to stop any individual setting up their own property management company tomorrow. Eventually, these individuals will usually fall foul of compliance issues but often the damage is done by that stage. We believe that the solution to ridding the industry of the cowboys is to look at the introduction of statutory regulation to bring the industry under legal control rather than allowing it to remain self-governed.
"Whilst statutory regulation may be a long way off, we certainly see the immediate future being about harnessing the best of the current approaches to long leasehold block management and producing a service offering that does not just tick boxes but that truly blows the socks off leaseholders".

Peter Campione has been an award winning dog trainer and behaviorist for twenty-five years. Born in Brooklyn, NY, he has trained dogs all across the country – originally in California, then Florida and now NJ. He owns and operates Kindred Souls Canine Center in Howell, NJ. Pete donates a great deal of his time to rescues and shelters, in addition to his own practice. Through so many years of working with mixed breeds, identifying mix breeds and the breed components that go into each one, Pete has specialized skills in this area. It is his opinion that the key to successful training and communication with your dog, is to get to know who that dog is.
Pete created the concept of using "mindfulness" when interacting with your dog. Mindfulness is an ancient process of staying "in the moment". Since dogs are programmed to live in the moment, so should we when we communicate. This has been successful in dealing with most behavior issues like aggression, fear and anxiety issues, plus optimizing most every day communication with your dog.
Pete is founder of "The Forgotten Pet Project" to benefit all rescue organizations and the dogs/cats in need.
Pete makes TV appearances giving lectures on canine behavior and has numerous articles published on dogs. His DVD "Kids and K-9's" is carried in over 400 local libraries. Look for his new book is on training the perfect puppy.

The Cleveland Browns wanted quarterback Tyrod Taylor and they knew they would need to move quickly because the Bills had multiple offers, according to Browns coach Hue Jackson.
Via Zac Jackson of The Athletic, Hue Jackson told reporters Tuesday that the Browns had to come with a strong offer if they wanted to make a deal for Taylor. The Browns sent their third-round pick (No. 65 overall and the first pick in Round 3) to the Bills in exchange for Taylor in a deal agreed to in the days before the league year opened March 14.
Taylor was due a $6 million roster bonus on the third day of the league year. The trade meant the Browns were responsible for the bonus. Taylor, who has one year remaining on his contract, represents $7.6 million of dead money on the Bills' salary cap for 2018.
"I'm just happy we got him," Jackson said. "I know for a fact other teams wanted him, too. I think we're fortunate to have this guy as our starter."
The News previously reported that Bills had potential offers from the Cardinals and Broncos, although the picks being offered were much lower.
Jackson named Taylor as the starting quarterback the day he was officially acquired. He said Tuesday that he would like Taylor to start the entire 2018 season and that the Browns want the quarterback they select in the draft to essentially use 2018 as a redshirt year.
Jackson said Taylor "is going to get us to winning."
"Maybe people don't think Tyrod has performed as well as he has because he's not talked about as an upper echelon guy in the league. But the guy has performed really solidly over the last several years. He's made some tremendous plays. He's led teams to the playoffs and winning seasons. He's stayed healthy, he hasn't turned the ball over and those are things coaches look for. I'm just happy we got him."
