Hey man, im trying to go through everyone's tracks and give some solid feedback so you can improve and get better at producing but first of all, i just wana say that i loved your track as it was very unique and the melody was so catchy and overall just fantastic and i will defiantly vote for this
I found myself humming the melody after listening! I can tell that if you keep working hard, you will make it one day!
The only thing i can say you need to work on is to make your kicks more hard hitting as they were a bit to soft and also try and add some sounds that fill out the middle end of the eq at the drop as it was a bit to bright but other than that, amazing track.
I was also wondering if you could check out my new track called I Wish and maybe you could vote for it as that would be a huge help

No idea about what to wear for the Lazy Chic Outfit? Here are things you need to know to achieve the look.
1. Glasses
This is easier than spending time putting on contact lenses and I assure you it would help you achieve the Lazy Chic look. The glasses will help you emphasise your face shape but you have to make sure you're wearing the glasses that matches your face. Put on some lip balm or gloss and off you go!
2. Top Knot Bun
This is like the signature to every Lazy Outfit every girls is sporting. Rugged or lazy, Top Knot is always present. You can watch videos on Youtube on how to create the perfect Top Knot Bun or you can just pull a bun over on head and leave it messy but must be held in place or it will fall over your face.
3. Jogger Pants
Heard of the New Trend? The Jogger Pants is the unusual fashion trend we have nowadays. Not just it feels comfortable but it looks gorgeous at the same time. What more could you want? Find a good pair of Jogger Pants and wear a cropped top with it. Lazy Daisy!
4. Lazy Accessories
The secret to a gorgeous laid back outfit is to accessorize wisely. You can choose from a lot of accessories but the most popular of them all is the scarf. You can actually just throw on the scarf like a drape and it can be an accessory or if you want to be more creative, you can style the scarf in any know you have in your mind just as long it compliments your look.
Enjoy the Lazy Chic Outfit!

Deschutes River Trail: Columbia River to Harris Island is a 22.2 mile lightly trafficked out and back trail located near Wasco, Oregon that features a river and is good for all skill levels. The trail offers a number of activity options and is accessible year-round. Dogs and horses are also able to use this trail.
dog friendly
kid friendly
horseback riding
mountain biking
nature trips
bike touring
bird watching
rails trails
wild flowers
no shade
The hike follows an old rail bed from the Columbia River up the Deschutes River (part of the rails-to-trails system). This is just the beginning of the Oregon Desert so bring fresh water. Trail is flat. There will be dirt bike riders, fishermen and white water rafters. Along the river there are trees and green in the flats. Not far from the rivers edge is sage brush and cliffs. The area is close to Celilo Village, the tiny fishing community called Oregon's oldest town. Salvage archeological digs prior to the completion of The Dalles Dam confirmed that Indian people had continuously occupied the village site for at least 11,000 years. Multi-use trail for hiking, mountain biking, walking.
As a late fall hike, the Weather is perfect for a comfortable day. The late fall colors and light make for spectacular views and panoramas. Bothe ends of this old railroad bed are a great hike, but the Souther end near Macs Canyon is tough for bikes. The old bridge trestles are the only real terrain deviations. From the State park on the Columbia River. Travel is flat and Smooth, great for bicycles.
(bikepacking) Struggled to find somewhere to camp after 8 miles when the sun set. It's a gravel road but the lack of any substantial climbing makes it fun, in a relaxing way. It's the perfect place to test bikepacking gear. The trains going by are cool. One came through after sundown. The bugs are bad, hundreds of gnats snuck into my tent when opening the doors. They love lights. The ants are enormous, the biggest I've ever seen. This is the perfect place to try riding at night, too, because the road is so easy. The stars were out and that was probably my favorite part. Two women on road bikes said they were camping on the trail without a tent, only a tarp, because they forgot their tent. I wonder how bad they were bitten I totally recommend this trail though. It seems like it would be a cinch on a fully rigid bike, but I still liked having my trail bike instead, to make the ride more comfortable. I could've left my sawyer behind, all the refill points look sketchy. Instead pack 3-4 liters per person and maybe a sawyer mini for emergencies. I bet an out-and-back day trip would be fun on any bike, even a mountain bike, because there are side trails that seem rideable, and the scenery.
Nice trail, but lacking in variety. Pretty much what you see for the first mile is what you will see for the rest of the hike. Very nice view if the river. The train will come chuggin along occasionally...which I think is cool, but you may find it noisy and annoying. You will see a lot of bikes and people with dogs. there are a few little side trails that will put you next to the river which is quite pleasant to splash around in on a hot day...
easy trail with nice views but no shade for dogs so warmer days is tough on the pooch. saw some nice flowers along the way and a deer. I took the middle elevation hiking trail on the way back to camp which had more real hike to it and no mountain bikes.
Gravel road that follows the river. Few spots to get down to the river to fish up to mile 2.5, otherwise you make your own way down.
My recording is "day two" of a two day through-hike that started at Mack's Canyon Campground. Weather was pretty nice - lows in the 50s and highs in the Mid 70s. A breeze keep it from feeling too hot. Trail from Harris to the Lower Deschutes State park is in much better condition overall than the stretch from Macks Canyon to Harris. Very little shade. Many of the trees near the water survived the fire, and other than some burnt trees, it doesn't look much different. There are not as many water sources coming off the canyon in this stretch, so I filled from the river twice (only carried 1 ltr at a stretch). I suspect that most of those sources will be dry by June. Water seemed too high and turbid to be good for fishing. Lots of miner's lettuce and stinging nettle in the wetter areas if you get hungry! No mosquitos, no ticks, no snakes observed, no packrobbers (mice / chipmonks etc) observed. Saw a rabbit, a marmot, and lots of birds (ducks, geese, seagulls, etc). but no deer / elk observed but lots of sign (I suspect they are mostly nocturnal). I heard turkeys at 5:30 am at Harris Ranch.
Beautiful hike to Harris Ranch for an overnight trip in early April. Definately the fire of 2018 charred the landscape, but wild flowers and grasses were in the rebound. All structures at Harris Ranch are no more due to the fire. Lots of camping along riverside, though my guess is that it gets crowded with rafters later in the season. State Park only allows fires in a metal container and bring in your own firewood, so we just chose to not have a fire. It made sense, as firewood is limited at the campsites and the area needs to regrow.
Really beautiful along the river! This area did recently get scorched, unfortunately. But vegetation is growing back and the landscape is still gorgeous.
This will be a great trail to hike again in a season or two, but recent wildfires have made much of the hike ash covered and unattractive. Wait till spring 2019 at the earliest.
I loved hiking this trail. it is scarred by the Substation fire, but it was very interesting and very do-able. My chihuahua and I went 8 miles total. The trail we chose was on an old rail bed which made the route out easy with not much elevation difference. The fire really changed the way this trail looks...but I found it very interesting. Take water and snacks...watch for rattlesnakes. There are composting toilets available along the trail. The river is beautiful and very inviting this time of year. We returned via the trail that follows right near the river. As for the trail, I recommend the Deschutes Canyon trail.
I did an out and back to mile 12 as a slow and easy backpacking trip. WATCH OUT FOR SNAKES!!! Came across a few rattlers and had some nerve racking experiences with em. Just keep and eye out and you will be fine. It's just easy to get distracted by the beautiful rolling hills. One luxury is the amount of outhouses along the trail, and fully stocked. The ranch house at mile 12 has officially collapsed and is no longer standing. The rail car at around mile 5 or 6 is still in great condition (so let's keep it that way!) Other than those few things the trail itself was a piece of cake, miles were easy with hardly any elevation. The heat is probably the only thing to slow you down, so start as early in the day as possible, and take breaks as needed, or go swimming!
Biked and my ass was sore for a week but great views the entire way. I'll hike along river trail next time and enjoy more shade.
Beautiful trail, today it was a quiet and peaceful day, almost no other people arround. We only met some fishermen, and a bunch of teenagers enjoying nature within their tents.
Went up the river trail about 2 miles, then took a steep trail up to the Middle Trail, and followed that about another mile. Came back all the way on the Middle Trail. Saw several bikers up on the bike road above me. Views North and South of Deschutes River quite nice. Always windy. Flowers near gone, but blackberries abound!!
Decent trail. Not much wildlife
Love this trail! One of my dogs favs! Following the river trail is the best in my opinion. When my husband comes along he always has his fishing pole to throw in a line while the dog and I mosey on down the trail. Also is never too crowed, and when you do pass people they are always the friendliest! I try and take the dog to this one at least once a week!
Started along the river and cut up to the higher trail to make a nice loop with some great views. I would have gone out even farther if I didn't get such a late start.
Trail is a mixture of runners, people with dogs, and mountain bikers. It's a dirt trail that is mostly flat. Walking along the river was really pretty but to/from was just okay. Keep track of which paths you've taken because it isn't marked at all. Overall pretty, close to Bend, and very dog friendly!
Great hike. Looking forward to biking this next time.
Nice central Oregon hike, great for your mountain bike ride.
This is one of my favorite hikes simply because it includes some great fishing. And its just amazing scenery.
If someone had told us last year that we would be attempting an overnight backpack adventure in January, I would have laughed hysterically. It usually pours rain in January, which makes for less than ideal camping conditions. But this has been a warm and dry winter so far so we decided to take advantage of that and do an early season overnight on the Lower Deschutes. We had planned to camp at the same place we camped at last year with our friend David (about 3.5 miles in from the trailhead). But it was a gorgeous day and last year, we had visited an abandoned boxcar at around mile 6 and decided on the spur of the moment to camp near it instead. Rivière des Chutes, the name given to the river by 19th-century fur traders, means 'River of the Falls.' It is perfectly named, as we saw many rapids along its length and its sound lulled us to sleep. The views of the Deschutes River Canyon, especially when the sky is covered with stars during a waxing moon phase, made every little ache, pain and worry worth the trip. The trains go by every couple of hours, which can sound rather loud, but we were miles from anyone and completely alone. It was very awe-inspiring.
Beautiful hike, and great fishing. Don't forget your tackle.
This is a good beginner trail to get brand new mountain bikers used to riding on non-asphalt roads. The path itself is fairly flat with only a a couple of climbs that aren't very long. The road itself is a dirt road with sections that are occasionally gravel-filled or rock-filled. These areas are do not occur very often. I rode 11.2 miles along this trail going in and it ends up at the Harris Ranch, an abandoned ranch home that offers a lot of great picture-taking opportunities. You can turn around from the trailhead at any time, but I highly recommend you try to make the 11.2 miles and get to the ranch before turning around. A restroom exists at roughly Mile 6 or 7 if you need one. I used this trail to introduce my wife to mountain biking which she loved.
This riverside hike offers some great views of both the river and the canyon it has carved. There is nothing to difficult about it, although you have a choice to either follow the nice and flat, well graveled, rail trail, or taking some of the side paths that are smaller and weave up and down, beside the river, etc. We saw many bikers on the trail, although they were restricted to the staightforward the graveled rail trail. In the springtime their are wild flowers, which adds some nice color to the desert landscape. If you are like me, you will also enjoy seeing trains weave down the canyon on the other side of the river. My suggestion would be spend the day hiking as far as you would like, double back, and spend the night at the campground where you can listen to the sound of the river and trains throughout the night.
Camping at the park, did a day excursion with 2 year old 8 year old and dog. Took the "middle" trail with hopes of looping back for the river trail on the way back. Unfortunately there are no markings for when they join up ( many down trails to the river man made can be deceiving) reached the bike trail and had to double back. Worth it though. Off the river trail be Rattlesnake rapids there is a great sandy beach area to cool your feet! Recommend this trail but it is loose rocks and fall offs in certain areas so tiny hikers should be backpacked!
Nice easy hike along the river. Also popular with mountain bikers. Can be a loop up the west hill to a natural spring. Lots of wildlife and beautiful spring flowers.
Easy ride with awesome picturesque views!

For example, if you believe the share price of a company currently trading for $100 is going to rise to $120 by some future date, you'd buy a call option with a strike price less than $120 (ideally a strike price no higher than $120 minus the cost of the option, so that the option remains profitable at $120). If the stock does indeed rise above the strike price, your option is in the money.
Market expectations of commodity due to variations in demand and supply (If the market feels commodity may go up and traders are bullish about commodity, then forward prices are higher than forward parity price, whereas, if market feels that prices may go down then forward prices may be lesser) The expectations are mainly dependent on demand supply factoINR.

If in six months the market crashes by 20% (500 points on the index), he or she has made 250 points by being able to sell the index at $2250 when it is trading at $2000—a combined loss of just 10%. In fact, even if the market drops to zero, the loss would only be 10% if this put option is held. Again, purchasing the option will carry a cost (the premium), and if the market doesn't drop during that period, the maximum loss on the option is just the premium spent.
Basically, you need the stock to have a move outside of a range. A similar strategy betting on an outsized move in the securities when you expect high volatility (uncertainty) is to buy a call and buy a put with different strikes and the same expiration—known as a strangle. A strangle requires larger price moves in either direction to profit but is also less expensive than a straddle. On the other hand, being short either a straddle or a strangle (selling both options) would profit from a market that doesn't move much.
Equity options today are hailed as one of the most successful financial products to be introduced in modern times. Options have proven to be superior and prudent investment tools offering you, the investor, flexibility, diversification and control in protecting your portfolio or in generating additional investment income. We hope you'll find this to be a helpful guide for learning how to trade options.
For strangles (long in this example), an investor will buy an "out of the money" call and an "out of the money" put simultaneously for the same expiry date for the same underlying asset. Investors who use this strategy are assuming the underlying asset (like a stock) will have a dramatic price movement but don't know in which direction. What makes a long strangle a somewhat safe trade is that the investor only needs the stock to move greater than the total premium paid, but it doesn't matter in which direction.

Sometimes corporations enter the forex market in order to hedge their profits. A US company with extensive operations in Mexico, for example, may enter into a futures contracts on US dollars. So, when it comes time to bring those Mexican profits home, the profits earned in pesos will not be subject to unexpected currency fluctuations. The futures contract is a way of securing an exchange rate and eliminating the risk that peso will lose value versus the dollar, making those profits worth less in dollars.
The contract specifications are specified for one contract, so the tick value shown above is the tick value per contract. If a trade is made with more than one contract, then the tick value is increased accordingly. For example, a trade made on the ZG options market with three contracts would have an equivalent tick value of 3 X $10 = $30, which would mean that for every 0.1 change in price, the trade's profit or loss would change by $30.
In our opinion, commodity markets coming off of long-term highs or lows typically present traders with an extraordinary prospect. However, it is important to realize that just because a commodity seems "cheap" doesn't mean that it can't go lower. Likewise, while we would never advocate buying (or being bullish with options) a commodity at an all time high, it is always possible that prices can continue higher but generally speaking options in such an environment are over-priced. As a result, they come with magnificently low odds of success.
Just like many successful investors, options traders have a clear understanding of their financial goals and desired position in the market. The way you approach and think about money, in general, will have a direct impact on how you trade options. The best thing you can do before you fund your account and start trading is to clearly define your investing goals.
However, for put options (right to sell), the opposite is true - with strike prices below the current share price being considered "out of the money" and vice versa. And, what's more important - any "out of the money" options (whether call or put options) are worthless at expiration (so you really want to have an "in the money" option when trading on the stock market).

From the moment you get to Culpeper, you'll have your heart set on exploration and an exciting itinerary in hand. And you're not the only one: Last year, journeys to this locale were popular.

A comprehensive insurance is a good choice to avoid unpleasant surprises. That way you can enjoy your stay carefree and explore the area with your rental car.
We have a couple different options when it comes to paying for your car rental. Read on and see which is best for you. Reserve now, pay now: This option allows you to reserve your car rental and prepay at the time of booking. You'll need a credit card to prepay, and can apply Expedia Rewards points to cover all or some of the booking cost. While some car rental companies may let you pay with a debit card, the driver still needs to present a valid credit card to cover the deposit upon pick-up. Reserve now, pay later: This option lets you reserve your rental car without paying in advance. When you get to the pick-up spot, just have whoever's driving present a valid credit card to pay the cost in full. The car rental company will also place a hold on your credit card in the amount of the car rental deposit.
When picking up your rental car, check for scratches or dents on the vehicle. Inspect the car carefully, make sure to take notes of potential damage and let the vendor know before driving off.
Rental car companies can usually be found at airports and various locations in the city centre.

2. Soundproofing The Coordination of Floor, Wall and Ceiling SolutionsPREFACEProblemYour office, located on the second floor, has a series of windowsthat are strategically arranged to provide the perfect vantage point toview the production floor below. The fully automated production line,demonstrating its ability to produce, package and prepare your productfor its shipment, is running flawlessly, just as you were expecting.As facility manager, your goal is to maintain the speed and efficiency ofthe production system. With this comes the need to provide a constantdistribution of information through emails, phone calls, staff meetingsetc. Each day you are continuously distracted and find it difficult tofocus on the matters at hand. You take a moment to collect yourself andrealize that you can clearly hear the calling of a drivers name followedby a shout that his truck is in the wrong shipping dock. You hear theclanks of the ductwork as the air pushes through the supply grill above,and the repetition of the rolling casters as the metal trays travel at fullspeed on the production line below.How is the noise entering the room so easily? Why is the noise soclear and recognizable? And most importantly, how can the sound berestricted from entering the room to prevent this from happening?SolutionIn order to reduce the amount of noise from entering a space, theremust be an understanding of how a room can be composed of a seriesof parts that, when working together, seal and prevent surrounding noisefrom entering. The coordination of floor, wall and ceiling assembliesmust work together to successfully reduce the intrusion of unwantednoise. www.amkingconstruction.com 1 3. Soundproofing The Coordination of Floor, Wall and Ceiling Solutions SOUNDInfrasoundAudible Sound Ultrasound Sound is the movement of air pressure (energy) waves that travel through both air and water. The perception of this movement is in the form of vibrations that are created when the energy waves strike a physical surface. As these waves continue to radiate from its source, they can be reflected, refracted or attenuated by each surface they 1Hz 10Hz 100Hz 1,000Hz10,000Hz 100,000Hz strike until the strength is depleted and all vibrations stop.Ultrasonic cleaners125Hz How sound travels through the air can be visually compared to throwing Diffuser noise a rock into a pool of water. A heavy mass (low frequency-Hz) will increase the distance between one wave swell and the next on the Damper noise water surface while its intensity of striking the water (pressure-dB) will determine the height of the waves and the distance those waves travel.Transformers When a light mass (high frequency-Hz) strikes the water surface with Fan & Pump Noise the same intensity (pressure-dB), there will be a much shorter distance between each wave cycle causing an increase in speed and a decreaseBlast furnace in travel distance before the waves lose their energy.

It is surprisingly fast-pac This is a downright fascinating book! It is surprisingly fast-paced and an absolute joy to read. It truly is a wonderful book - both informative and moving. What makes this all the more exciting is that this is one of the only dogs books that I have read in a while that truly presents new and exciting information. The research and the science feels new and quite fresh.
This book certainly makes his talents as a scientist, author, parent and dog owner quite apparent! I will definitely be keeping an eye out for a follow-up! Dec 15, Richard rated it it was ok. The results of the research are very interesting, but they can be summed up in two sentences.
This book pads those results with a rather poorly told story. I wish I had googled for the study results and spent the time saved reading a book that was actually good. Positive reinforcement is a shortcut to train dogs, but it is not necessarily the best way to form a relationship with them. I very much appreciate the exceptional humane objectives and treatment, but I admit I skimmed a large chunk of the beginning of this book in order to get to what I was truly interested in - the findings and what they feel they'd learned.
It was all quite interesting to me. As a dog person myself I have no doubt our dogs do love us. But of course, they are still a different species and it's wise not to think of them as mini-humans, at least as far as things like how they think, what they feel, and physical needs. Dog people know that relationships with dogs can certainly be mutually beneficial, and have an inter-dependancy, even on a purely emotional level, that rivals what humans can experience in relationships with other humans.
But how is that relationship from a dog's perspective? Do they feel love, affection, or do they see their human companions as simply dispensers of food and pleasurable things like play time and belly rubs?
I know what I think: D Dogs are social creatures, and clearly able to bond with humans. They show clear signs of fear, anger, anxiety, joy, even grief. I see no valid reason to deny they also feel affection. Highly recommend to dog lovers who are interested in the dog mind.
Some quotes from my highlights: Moreover, these interspecies social skills evolved from dogs' predatory past. Apart from humans, strong evidence for theory of mind has been found only in monkeys and apes, which have social cognition for primates but not necessarily other animals.
Dogs are much better than apes at interspecies social cognition. More than intuiting what we think, dogs may also feel what we feel.
Dogs have emotional intelligence. In the interest of transparency, I need to reveal that I'm a "dog person". I grew up with all sorts of dogs: So going in, I was probably going to like this book. A lot. All that aside, this was an incredibly interesting book. The science and research is something that I would probably enjoy immensely, and the author did an outstanding job of keeping it in layman's terms and understandable for the "regular In the interest of transparency, I need to reveal that I'm a "dog person".
The science and research is something that I would probably enjoy immensely, and the author did an outstanding job of keeping it in layman's terms and understandable for the "regular" reader, at least for the most part. The account itself was wonderful, too, with laugh-out-loud moments and an entire chapter of tears late in the book. This book does make me wonder, though, why we need science to figure out that our dogs love us the scientist-author mentioned this, too.
We trained them and they trained us , and we were actually pretty successful in this endeavor, actually winning "best-in-state" once with one of them. Just like in the book, we used all sorts of hand signals to direct the dogs to perform various tasks and actions, and rewarded them on an infrequent basis, especially when in the ring.
The dog my wife and I have now, a 9-year old Chihuahua named "Fantum", is very smart, very empathic, and very perceptive. He knows when we are hurting or need his attention, even to the point of not responding when my wife "fake-cries" just to get a reaction out of him. He knows when my wife's blood pressure or blood glucose is too high, and won't leave her alone until we take care of it. He directs us with his eyes when he wants something: His memory of his "people" is quite impressive, too.
My son, Tony, moved out of the house four years ago, and Fantum still looks for him when we say "Tony", running to the front window to look at the driveway for his car. As cool and as ground-breaking it is, I don't need a brain scan on my dog to know that he loves his family unconditionally. Highly recommended for all "dog people"! Feb 10, Lea rated it liked it Shelves: Although I'm a fan of authors who weave their personal lives into their books -- Mary Roach and Jon Ronson are both masters at this -- Gregory Berns rubbed me the wrong way.
He comes across as smug and superior, and to tell the truth, I was just hanging in there to read about his results. Berns was the first to scan a non-sedated dog in an MRI. A good two-thirds of the book focuses on the author's family, 3. A good two-thirds of the book focuses on the author's family, as well as the training for his Dog Project. While the dog training was interesting, I didn't enjoy the rest of the story.
The final third of the book focuses on the MRIs themselves, as well as the results and the team's conclusions. The book shines in this part, and I thought the Berns really hit his stride at that point. But a funny thing happened -- in the last chapter or two the author again returned to discussing his family and the dogs that live with them, and I didn't find it at all irritating. I think his enthusiasm for his Dog Project resonated with me, and his obvious love for the members of his "pack" was very charming.
He just might grow on you. Dec 09, Carrie rated it it was ok. The author takes a fascinating proband, adds the most exciting area of science; research, and becomes so granular with head positioning, you want to rip your own head off by chapter 8. That is where I started skimming. Written to an audience who appreciates research, but then written to move so slowly, and on a fifth grade reading level, the book demonstrates that you cannot serve two masters.
As someone who has worked many years in medical research, I was hoping for more scientific conclusions The author takes a fascinating proband, adds the most exciting area of science; research, and becomes so granular with head positioning, you want to rip your own head off by chapter 8.
As someone who has worked many years in medical research, I was hoping for more scientific conclusions in the end. What I found was generalization and guess-work. I suppose the redeeming value the publisher felt, was this was a unique topic for a book. If you're a big research nerd like me, however, you'll spend most of your time rolling your eyes, and searching for concrete scientific value to this work. Oct 23, Janel rated it it was amazing. I just received this book in the mail yesterday afternoon.
I started reading it in the evening and was up until midnight when I finally forced myself to put it down. I finished it this afternoon and I really enjoyed it. Everything from how he came up with the idea to how they trained the dogs to go into the MRI and hold still so they could get images from them while they were awake. These tests could enable us to say yes that is what the dogs think, since they can not answer questions.
I would r I just received this book in the mail yesterday afternoon. I would recommend this book to everyone, it is interesting, well written so it is easy and quick to read and enjoyable. I can not describe the book well enough so you will just need to read it.
Oct 07, Orsolya rated it liked it Shelves: The truth is: On the other hand, this thorough step-by-step detailing of a single experiment invigorates the reader into seeing how experiments are contrived and what goes on behind closed doors. Noticeably, Berns sometimes repeats himself albeit in a minor way — meaning not with a large chunk of text — and therefore it is modestly detrimental to the text.
This is when Berns is more scientific instead of merely penning a memoir but even then he over-simplifies the material and glosses over many details. Berns has traveled on an unprecedented journey of scanning non-sedated dogs but sadly, failed to truly present the amazing, intense merits of this. Sep 30, Chris Craddock rated it it was amazing Shelves: But first they have to get the dogs to climb into the Magnetic Resonance Imaging contraption, hold their heads perfectly still in spite of the unearthly racket the machine makes, while wearing ear muffs to protect their sensitive ears.
While Cally, a Super Feist, will do virtually anything for a chunk of hot dog, eating her succulent bribe causes her head to move. That is unacceptable, as it blurs the brain scan. How this was accomplished, along with compiling the data and writing a paper that supports their theory, is the gist of How Dogs Love Us. Since this is a non-fiction account, and not a formal scientific paper, there is quite a bit of chatter about the author's feelings about dogs, and the people who love them.
For instance, his dog Cally, who is one of the prime subjects in the experiment, isn't overly affectionate. She doesn't curl up with her head in his armpit at night, but prefers to keep her distance. She is a high energy dog who loves to chase squirrels. She loves food so much that she figured out a way to unlock the plastic food bin, and gorged herself until she was an overstuffed pinata.
But something about her resonated with Gregory Berns. Forget Reservoir Dogs. We're talking Resonate Dogs. Certain dogs "resonate" with certain people, and they bond. Cally reminded me of my dog, Delilah. She is an Australian Cattle Dog, and her herding instinct sometimes causes her to treat people like sheep and herd them hither and yon.
But I love her. Gregory Berns spoke of dogs that "resonate" and he was also trying to scan canine brains with Magnetic Resonance Imaging to discover how they resonate with people. Berns doesn't trust such people. But what about people who are both Dog People and Cat People? Berns doesn't mention them, but I have three dogs and a cat. I think that cats and dogs are different, but they both love people in their own peculiar way. For instance, a dog on its back wants you to rub his or her belly.
But a cat in similar stance could just be waiting in ambush to attack! But I digress. Cally, and Gregory's other dog, Lyra, were a part of his family. The book also profiles other family members, like his wife and daughter.
His daughter is struggling with science, of all things. At the parent teacher conference Dr. Berns suggests that his daughter's sub par performance may be due to the science teacher's methods and the inadequate text books. I looked at his author photo and concluded that he looked a bit like Paul Lieberstein, who plays HR worker Toby Flenderson. In other segments he mentioned that he was more comfortable with dogs than humans, and I pictured him as Sheldon Cooper, the socially awkward scientist on The Big Bang Theory played by Jim Parsons.
I could picture this whole book as a Sit Com, or more accurately, a dramedy. Not jokes with a laugh track to tell you where to laugh, but more of a subtle dramedy where there are serious and comic moments that arise from real situations. Like maybe Parenthood. Anyway, he tells his daughter that if she studies her science with him for an extra hour a day she can participate when they bring Cally in to be scanned in the Magnetic Resonance Imager.
She can play hooky, but perhaps learn even more by participating in a scientific experiment in a bona fide science laboratory than she would've in school. So, in conclusion, How Dogs Love Us would appeal to those who enjoy science, family sit coms--or dramedies--and dogs. Dog lovers especially will love this book. Jan 28, SheLove2Read rated it it was ok Shelves: This book goes to a lot of trouble to tell us what any dog owner already knows: They only ask for our love and companionship in return.
Aug 21, J L's Bibliomania rated it liked it Shelves: I was not particularly impressed by How Dogs Love Us: While I understand that training an unsedated dog to tolerate and cooperate in the sensory onslaught of an MRI is an achievement, telling the backstory of a single scientific paper involving two dogs did not seem sufficient to warrant an entire book.
I also have issue with the book's title, since the study in question - determining which portion of the dog brain responds to the han I was not particularly impressed by How Dogs Love Us: I also have issue with the book's title, since the study in question - determining which portion of the dog brain responds to the hand signal for a a pleasurable food stimulus as opposed to a null hand signal - seems very far from answering the question "How Dogs Love Us".
Near the end of the book Dr. Bern describes the initial stages of training a larger cohort of 12 dogs for a scent based study. The results of this second study were published in early and are available from www. To truly live with dogs, humans need to become 'great leaders.
There is plenty of discussion of research, which is interesting in parts, funny in others. The thought process that was behind his attempt to prove that dogs are capable of what can only be described as "loving" their "humans. Feb 18, Joe Kessler rated it it was ok. The science is interesting, but the writing is stilted and the author frequently comes off as arrogant. Plus, as he admits, the fMRI research on dogs really just confirms what pet-owners have known about the social intelligence of these animals for centuries.
It's cool that canine brain activity is being studied, and I appreciate that Berns and his team are going about it so ethically, but this was not an essential read. Dec 26, Derek Arnold rated it it was ok. Loved the idea, but not really what I expected. Out of 25 or so chapters in the book, there are actual dog brain MRI results in only a small handful. More of a story than a presentation of any consequential data. However, the project is ongoing and I'd be interested to read Berns' further work.
Nov 12, Brenda Gadd rated it it was amazing. I loved this book. Even though there is no scientific way, as yet, to measure the title , How Dogs Love Us.
What I loved was following a scientific experiment. You have the idea. You work with an MRI all the time. But no one has really looked at a dog's brain, without sedation. Through an elaborate system of dog training with hot dogs as treats , teaching a dog to wear ear muffs for sound, and hold still All this, is a situation where lawyers and faculty consultants I loved this book.
All this, is a situation where lawyers and faculty consultants must pass on the experiment. Conducted in a human MRI setting. I really enjoyed the author's insights into "Lab dogs" those bred for science, used by science and cast away. Also for other animals used for science.
You have to love science at least a little and dogs a whole lot to love this experiment. Dogs were loved and treated fairly for this experiment. They honored the times the dog wanted to opt out.
And the author wants nothing to do with experimental apes I wonder if this is from a scientist's viewpoint. I wonder more about what he knows.
I found this a good read. View 1 comment. I have to say that I expected more from this book based on the title. Since I am a dog lover, of course I'm going to love the premise of the book, however, it failed to deliver. Maybe it's not the fault of the author as much as it is the fault of technology. The book was slow to develop. Maybe because when it's all said and done the science is still young, but it was I have to say that I expected more from this book based on the title.
Maybe because when it's all said and done the science is still young, but it was enticing nonetheless. I would have liked more of a definitive answer. The story is warm and fuzzy, and the science is approaching believability.
As one who actually wants the answers to be strong and definitive, I was rooting for the author. More time is spent on the steps which lead to the fMRI scans which the star canine, Callie, has to go through than on any actual results of the scans themselves. I still enjoyed the book. Any dog lover will. I'd like a sequel is there one already?
If you are a "dog person" and have always wondered if your furry friend saw you as anything more than a source for food or was capable of genuine emotional feelings, this is a "must read" book. Intrigued by the question, "Does my dog love me?
For years, scientists have been able to identify functions, responses, and possible emotions in the human brain by scanning that organ and seeing what areas "light up" during If you are a "dog person" and have always wondered if your furry friend saw you as anything more than a source for food or was capable of genuine emotional feelings, this is a "must read" book.
For years, scientists have been able to identify functions, responses, and possible emotions in the human brain by scanning that organ and seeing what areas "light up" during different stimulation. Theoretically, this should also be something that can be done with a canine. But, how do you influence a dog to keep its head still long enough for a scan to be accomplished without forcibly restraining it causing anxiety or drugging it deadening responses?
And if we learn that dogs have self-awareness and genuine emotions, will that change their legal status from "possessions" to "beings"? Though intrigued, I began this book with a worry that the scientific jargon likely to be encountered would overwhelm me.
I soon learned that I needn't have feared. Terminology is kept to a minimum, and there are many stories about how people interacted with their dogs and how the many hurdles facing The Dog Project were crossed. There is a collection of wonderful pictures, too.
There were at least three observations made from this study that have changed the way in which I've been interacting with Keira, my Japanese Chin. The greatest benefit, other than enjoying a crackling good story, was in becoming aware of behaviors I've seen for years, but for which I didn't assign any special meaning.
Using the interpretations mentioned in this book, I've felt I have a closer communication with Keira than I've ever had before. If you are a "dog person" I highly recommend this book. Aug 26, Cora Lee rated it really liked it. Well written and very easy to read, even if you remember little from your high school science classes.
Tissues might be needed toward the end! The only thing that kept this from being 5 stars for me is the lack of detail regarding the expansion of the Dog Project. The author mentions that, after the initial 2 dogs, more were trained and scanned, but doesn't elaborate beyond that. I wanted very much to know about the experiments performed with those other dogs, and the data that resulted from the scans: John Bradshaw.
