A dog's eating habits are controlled by three things: its brain, its experiences, and its environment. The very first experiment in behavioral psychology was done by a scientist named Pavlov who taught dogs to get ready to eat when they heard a certain sound. Since that initial experiment, scientists have observed over and over how important the things happening around, and to, a dog are when it comes to affecting the dog's eating habits.
Once, when dogs were wild, most of their daily activity was devoted to obtaining a meal. While the need for this activity has practically disappeared, mealtime still constitutes one of the most important events in a dog's life. And, many of a dog's behavioral responses are still linked to its eating routine.
Today's dogs have become creatures of habit. They thrive on monotony and are most comfortable when things remain the same. Few dogs appreciate a sudden change in their sleeping quarters or the surprise of a new food in their bowl. The more that can be done to prevent change in a dog's feeding program, the better it will be for both the dog and its owner. Regularity in feeding promotes good appetite, good digestion and regular eliminations. Therefore, the first general consideration to be made when feeding any dog should be the establishment of a regular feeding schedule and should stay that way without being altered.
Puppies have conventionally been fed small portions of their daily diet at frequent intervals during the day. The rationalization behind this is sound, but the frequency of feedings often is too high. Even newborn puppies do quite well when fed only four times daily. Some breeders even reduce this to three times daily, but unless your schedule absolutely prohibits it, a minimum of four feedings should be the limit. The feedings need not be separated exactly six hours apart, but it is desirable to space the feedings as evenly as possible throughout the 24-hour time period. For example, my own schedule usually works out best when I feed around 7:00 A.M., 12:00 Noon, 6:00 P.M., and 1:00 P.M. Yours may be different.
The frequency of feedings should not be reduced to three a day until the puppies are weaned. Whether you are feeding newborn puppies four times daily, or older puppies three times, once the pattern of feedings has been set, it should not be changed, but should occur at the same time every day.

The Masada Miniseries was a 394 minute miniseries on ABC about 900+ Jewish people who retreat to the mountaintop fortress of Masada after a city wide siege by Roman soldiers in the year 72 AD that including the destruction of two Jewish temples. The power that the Roman Commander had at his disposal had made him confident that he could totally dominate the Jews but he didn't plan on the fortitude of Masada or the determination of the Jews there to remain free of Roman rule. The commander gathered a 5000 soldier army to conquer the fortress the grueling heat with no source of water and long supply lines made the Romans' survival just as questionable as their quarry! Despite the Romans superior numbers and war technology, Masada proved to be a more formidable objective than they ever imagined! It's a classic example of who will win in the end ... might or right.

Masada Miniseries Trivia
The Jewish "Blessing of the Sun" is recited just once every 28 years. The recital of the prayer is to commemorate the Sun being in the same position in the sky on the same day of the week, at the same hour as it was when it was created. It just so happened that the blessing fell on April 8, 1981, the same day that the final part of the Masada Miniseries aired on ABC! That's kind of ironic since the prayer was delivered at the top of one of the twin towers in New York city that would be ruthlessly attacked 20 years later. Even more ironically, 28 years later the blessing was given at the ancient synagogue at Masada!
Jerry Goldsmith won an Emmy for "Outstanding Achievement in Music Composition for a Limited Series or a Special (Dramatic Underscore)" for his musical achievement on Part 2 of the Masada miniseries. Actor David Warner who portrayed Senator Pomponius Falco also won an Emmy for "Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or a Special". His fellow nominees were fellow Masada co-star Anthony Quayle, Yuki Meguro and John Rhys-Davies ("Sliders") for their roles on the "Shogun Miniseries" and Andy Griffith ("Matlock") for his part on a TV movie titled "Murder in Texas". The Masada miniseries also was nominated for an additional 11 Emmys and 3 Golden Globes!
The ABC executives were afraid that viewers would not be familiar with the historical background of Masada so they commissioned a 30 minute documentary titled, "Back To Masada" with Peter O'Toole as the host. It explained the story of good vs. evil in the desert, got viewers excited about the tale and aired just prior to the first part of the miniseries. The miniseries was also advertised as an "ABC Novel for Television".
Miniseries were very good for actor Peter Strauss. His starring role on the "Rich Man, Poor Man Miniseries" in 1976 and 1977 moved his career into high gear. Bit parts turned into numerous starring roles on TV series and TV movies! After Masada, Peter also did two more Miniseries, both in 1985, "Tender Is the Night" and "Kane and Abel".
The Roman commander, Flavius Silva, was no fool and saw early on that besieging Masada wouldn't be easy so he wanted to come to a compromise with the Jewish leaders that would allow him to withdraw his soldiers. The swelled-headed idiots in Rome, however, wouldn't hear of it and ordered him to defeat them with no negotiations.
After arriving in the desert to shoot on location the cast and crew quickly learned what the Romans' had faced as far as the temperature was concerned. They decided that it was nearly humanly impossible to film during mid-day so they shot scenes only early in the morning and late at night.
If you look closely you will see a large modern vehicle on a road in the background during the scene where the Jews are climbing the trail up to the top of Masada. OOPS!

text: The Recassa Ranch, located in east central Texas, is a spectacular example of predominantly natural woodland, exhibiting a mix of Post Oak and East Texas habitats. This very private ranch was part of an original 20,000 acre property put together in the 1930's. A trip to the ranch takes the visitor back to an earlier time with diverse species of towering trees, free flowing streams and great topography. The ranch also boasts the approximately 15 acre Lake Lucy, numerous springs, timber and Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's Keechi Creek Wildlife Management Area as its southern neighbor. Location: The property is located in the northeastern portion of Leon County approximately 14 miles east of Buffalo, TX. The ranch entrance is located on CR 236 approximately 4.8 miles south of FM 831. Habitat & Topography: The ranch is predominantly woodland with numerous species of oak (including Post Oak, Overcup Oak and Water Oak), old growth pines, American Holly, Sweetgum, American Elm, a few cedar and others. The understory is thick with Yaupon, Dogwood and many other shrubs and vines. With over 110' of relief, numerous drainages, hilltops and ridges, this ranch has extraordinary opportunities for water development projects geared to wildlife and waterfowl including several locations well suited for additional lake sites and flooded timber for waterfowl. Wildlife, Hunting: The property supports populations of white-tailed deer, waterfowl, feral hog, dove, turkey, squirrel and swamp rabbit, not to mention varmints and non-game species. There are numerous clearings, lanes and feeder locations for big game hunting and the lake provides waterfowl hunting opportunities. Water: The approximately 15 acre Lake Lucy is estimated to be 18 feet deep in places and offers fantastic fishing and waterfowling opportunities. The lake has been stocked with Black Bass, Florida Strain Bass, Hybrid Striped Bass and forage fish. Improvements: The ranch is very natural and not improved other than the lake, a couple of clearings, a screen porch shelter near the lake, an older hunting camp, another cabin in need of repair, a small storage shed, and ample roads /crossings. Electricity: Available near several property lines Plantation Timber: A small portion of the property was planted with fast growing pines with an estimated harvest potential as early as 2023 and earlier pulp wood thinning around 2016-17. Other: The primary neighbor to the south is Texas Parks and Wildlife's Keechi Creek Wildlife Management Area. The WMA, historically a part of the Recassa Ranch until 1986, is 1500 acres of bottomland hardwood forest that includes the confluence of Keechi and Buffalo Creeks. It was purchased to preserve the bottomland hardwoods and for use as a waterfowl management area. Given its status as a WMA, this neighboring property is expected remain pristine and undeveloped, an added benefit, offering extensive wildlife habitat along southern boundary.

Gopnik's Table Comes First
I read Adam Gopniks memoir Paris to the Moon umpteen times and read it each time I am bound for Paris. There is always something thrilling about those first few pages, encountering Paris through Gopniks eyes, a place he wanted to live since he was eight-years-old. He begins on rue Saint-Sulpice, a street in my favorite arrondissement, and describes an enchanting engraving he saw there of a train leaving Paris flying straight up into the sky. This is how I used to imagine Paris, and still do, as cheesy as it seems. In fact, any new place I alight, I always feel, even if briefly, the enormous possibilities, as endless as the sky itself. I just need the requisite magical flying train -- à la Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang -- to get there.
Its no coincidence I began reading Gopniks more recent collection The Table Comes First: Family, France, and the Meaning of Food while planning an upcoming road trip from Paris to Bordeaux. Forever I harbored romantic visions about such a trip, picturing meals in a low-ceilinged country auberge with an open hearth, white tablecloths, creaky chairs, eating cassoulet or a confit du canard paired with a wine from the region (I think such a place does exist and Paula Wolfert, in writing The Cooking of South-West France, has surely been there). Gopniks book, it turns out, was no roadmap for my mawkish reverie, but his book was magical ride nonetheless.
The title is a bit of a misnomer because it promises a culinary romp through France with Gopniks charming family. With such expectations aside, Gopniks theoretical inquires about how we eat, what we eat, and whom we choose to eat with is easier to swallow. He examines these questions by rummaging around such trends as nose-to-tail eating, Le Fooding, localism, molecular cooking, and zealous vegetarianism. By doing so, he explores the parboiled arguments of "taste," good and bad. "We have mouth taste and we have moral taste, Gopnik writes, though moral in this context signifies more than just ethical. He wants us to believe moral and mouth tastes are cyclical, evolving, linked. Gopnik uses the StarKist tuna ads of the sixties to adjudicate. Charlie, the beret wearing tuna, tries to convince Starkist that his outward appearance and sophistication foretold the quality of his fillet. Charlie, StarKist dont want tunas with good taste, StarKist wants tunas that taste good. StarKist is right that good taste starts with something tasting good, but as Gopnik argues, moral taste expands from mouth taste. In other words, if something looks good (as does Charlie the Tuna) that we are more likely to convince ourselves it tastes good too, even if its not necessarily better tasting. They are all framing effects in which what we sense on our tongues is secondary to what we believe in our heads, he writes. As I child, I would scarf down canned tuna mixed with mayo, stuffed inside a buttered and toasted hot dog roll. But back then, serve me fresh tuna that looked like tuna? Never would have happened even though fresh tuna, as I now know, tasted superior than the canned version. "Too fishy!" I declared about bluefin fillets, even though the canned stuff really smelled like cat food. But to a nine-year-old, a can was a neat package that couldnt stare back at me.
Some critics zinged Gopnik for this books intellectual timbre, but anyone familiar with Gopnik knows his writing is infused with recherché reference, acerbic wit, strategic name-dropping, and a Francophile palette, a palette largely influenced by his mother. To his defense and for those not familiar with his work, he is a well-read and well-travelled man and he shares his abundant knowledge, like he shares his personal recipes, many of which I recorded (his roast chicken recipes are particularly appealing). There is also a tendency, at least by a large faction of Americans, to associate French cuisine with elitism, but Gopniks flick of the wrist appeal to Brillat-Savarin exists alongside his lemon-up-the-bum chicken and testimonials from Charlie the Tuna. The writing, subsequently, remains balanced, following the directive of his mothers recipe for apricot and Grand-Marnier soufflé: do not overbeat / do not underbeat! A bit of scholarly detritus, buoyed by a cartoon fish makes this text richer just as Gopniks Béarnaise sauce is made richer by the addition of butter. The essays end up a cross between M.F.K. Fisher, Anthony Bourdain, and Roland Barthes: personal, zesty and naughty at times, and as cerebral as semiotics like a good meal itself.
Intermittently, Gopnik crafts imaginary correspondences to Elizabeth Pennell (1862-1952), a lusty cook before her time. He affectionately calls her The Nigella Lawson of the Age of Whistler someone he identifies as having extremely, almost scarily, good taste and the rare kind of food writer who makes you digress, turn from analytic scrutiny to ardent fantasy. The device -- half fan mail and half diary -- works as a candid chance for Gopnik to let down his hair and get personal. Here is where youll find his family and his cooking, and through a lens more informal than erudite.
My dinner guests sometimes ask for my salad dressing recipe: Why dont you use measurements?! Other times, Im encouraged to substitute ingredients: Lets use turkey sausage instead of chorizo. Taste. You can give someone your recipe for dressing, but you cant give them your happy accidents, the temperature of your olive oil, the freshness of your garlic, the size of your whisk, the depth of your bowl, the amount of times you make your dressing. In other words, there are so many factors going making something, its almost impossible to convey its replication. The recipe is a blueprint but also a red herring, a way to do something and a false summing up of a living process that can be handed on only be demonstration, a knack posing as knowledge, Gopnik writes. Taste. Its the single gesture on the plate epitomized by Alain Passards tomato salad. Passard, owner and chef of Michelin Red Guide three-star LArpege in Paris and owner of Château du Gros Chesnay in Fillé-sur-Sarthe, tells Gopnik: The other day I made a plate of tomatoes -- just these tomatoes, sliced the right thickness, salted, and with a dab of balsamic. It was perfect. The gardener nods seriously. Of course, one gesture on the plate demands a thousand acts here in the garden. Taste is the moment when all good things come together and form something singularly satisfying, like how I feel when my simple dressing ingredients transform damp leafy blandness into a bowl of divine greens. The recipe? As Gopnik suggests, Be me!
Food, yes, but whats the book got to do with family and France? Gopniks family is often in the periphery as sideline commentators, cooking muses, or brining inspiration. France serves as a backdrop no doubt, and a lifelong inspiration for him, its food and history as picturesque as the train station in the film Hugo. The themes are not as acutely manifest as his historical and analytical discussions of food, but they are there, like the secret ingredient in his roast chicken.
I met Gopnik, briefly, at a reading in San Francisco and sheepishly asked him to sign my dog-eared Paris to the Moon paperback, a book signing no-no, which he did graciously and then chatted for a few minutes about The Best American Essays, which he was editing that year. Naysayers, snark away; the man is no prima donna and knows his roast chicken. Hes sharp as a tack and to dumb down or broaden his writing to capture a wider audience about a subject so dear to him would be a culinary and literary travesty. He presupposes his readers are intelligent, and doesnt condescend as does Alice Waterss The Art of Simple Food -- Sautéing is a very fast way of cooking over high heat we are told. Anyone purchasing a cookbook by Alice Waters or knows who she is, I daresay, knows this. Gopnik, on the other hand, is not trying to start a Delicious Revolution.
For my impending road trip, I plan to drive a Fiat 500 through the small Pays de la Loire and Charente-Maritime villages where my ancestors came from and return on the magic flying train of the TGV, hopefully experiencing something as inspiring as that tomato salad in Fillé-sur-Sarthe.
You dont have to own Le Creuset cookware (though you should anyway), know every French gastronome, or drop $200 on lunch to enjoy this book. It is written for and written by, someone who cooks with and serves it up with love.

Target Achievement
The five strategic pillars market penetration, innovation, emerging markets, acquisitions, and values are not only the foundation for growth but they also drive improvements in margins, cash flow, and return on capital. Within the framework of the growth model, various initiatives contribute to the achievement of the strategic targets.
Key investments in the accelerated expansion of the supply chain in growth markets, new national subsidiaries and acquisitions drive growth and margins. Since 2012 Sika has invested in 52 new plants, 22 new national subsidiaries and 23 acquisitions – a total of 95 key investments.
Investments in R&D lead to the launch of a large number of new products in all target markets every year. Sika spends approximately 3% of sales on R&D annually.
Globally organized procurement coordinates purchasing in all regions, resulting in more price efficient sourcing.
Focus on pricing with global pricing tools and monthly pricing reporting.
Transparent performance management focused on well-defined KPIs.
Strict cost management. Fast efficiency measures in countries which are not growing.
Operating leverage: Sales growth of 6-8% generates higher margins, as costs increase at a disproportionately lower rate.
Outlook 2018
In the business year 2018, Sika expects a sales increase of more than 10%. Volatile and rising commodity prices will continue to present a challenge in the current year. In China, for example, access to raw materials has been impaired by environmental constraints introduced by the government. Operating profit (EBIT) should enjoy a disproportionate high rise in 2018.
With investments in nine new factories, three additional national subsidiaries and seven acquisitions, the basis for future growth has been established. These key investments allow the Group to look with much confidence to the future.

This entire article may seem strange coming from a man. But for any heterosexual man, any son of any woman, or any father of young daughters there should be a vested interest in the welfare of women and their sexuality. And, while female sexuality is an uncomfortable subject to broach for most men, especially when referring to loved ones with whom you do not share a sexual relationship, the subject is worth discussing for their happiness. According to pharmaceutical companies, up to 43% of all women are affected by female sexual dysfunction. That bears repeating. Pharmaceutical companies believe that nearly half of all women in the world are suffering from some sort of impairment that prevents them from having and enjoying sex. However, female sexual dysfunction is a disease that was manufactured by drug companies to capitalize off the preoccupation that people have with sex.
As many as 12 pharmaceutical organizations are currently actively attempting to "cure" female sexual dysfunction. Pfizer, the company that created Viagra, found that up to one-third of women in southern Europe had a lack of interest in sex, and 40% of women in southeast Asia failed to reach orgasm in a 2005 survey. Some of the other drug companies estimate that at least 80% of women have significant body image issues and that those body judgement prevent 46% of women from having regular orgasms. These numbers are alarming until you consider who conducted the trials and who funded them, pharmacy. Drug companies are attempting to apply the same ideals for the treatment of sexual dysfunction to both men and women when the science of sex is completely different for the two genders.
Men are wired differently than women emotionally and physically. Dr. Edward O. Laumann, PHD. goes into great detail over the differences between the sexes and their sexual drives in his book, The Social Organization of Sexuality: Sexual Practices in the United States. His studies at the University of Chicago have shown that men think about sex more and pursue it more. Most men under the age of 60 think about sex at least once a day, while only about 25% of women think about sex that often. Men masturbate more frequently and have sex more often with more partners than women. But, women show more complex sexual drives while the male sex drive is fairly simple. Heterosexual men only become sexually excited by women and heterosexual sex acts and homosexual men are attracted to men and sexual behaviors between them. But, both women who classify themselves as heterosexual and those who consider themselves homosexual can be aroused by seeing or participating in either heterosexual or homosexual acts. According to Baumeister, women's sexual preferences are influenced by many social, cultural, and environmental factors whereas the preferences of most men remain fairly static regardless of context. Education, religious beliefs, peers, and time all affect the sexual viewpoint and sexual behaviors of women, but sexual preference in men does not change. Therefore, women's libidos show very little response to drug therapy while men are very responsive to several different types of treatments. This is because most sexual responses and problems for men are physical in nature rather than being tied into emotion. When a man can not perform or reach orgasm, the base cause is usually that blood is not flowing into the penis or it is not staying in the penis. These problems can usually be treated by treating the tissue in the penis that sustains the erection, treating circulation, or treating the prostate which can block flow. Reaching orgasm for a man is as simple as getting his equipment to work properly in most cases. Reaching orgasm is a more difficult venture for women. It is often a combination of mental excitement and arousal, clitoral stimulation, and good sexual technique from a partner that allows a woman to climax during sex. And even then, an orgasm is not promised to a woman. So, treating the physical aspects of sex for women has given less than desirable results even though the male and female sex organs have very similar builds and functions.
Since both the vulva of a woman and the penis of a man fill with blood when they gets aroused, and blood flow causes the requisite sensitivity of the organs that produces orgasms, pharmaceutical companies believed that promoting blood flow to the vulva would increase orgasms for women. These theories prompted most drug treatment for sexual dysfunction in women to be made to promote increased blood flow to the genitals, however increased blood flow does not lead directly to increased pleasure in women. Some of the largest drug companies in the world have siphoned millions of dollars behind this erroneous belief and lost it all. But, because so much money has been spent trying to prove that FSD exists and so much has been spent developing treatment for the nonexistent ailment, the drug therapy of FSD has to work.
Australian journalist Ray Moynihan wrote:
"In trials on women in the US, compared to placebo, flibanserin offered women an extra 0.7 "satisfying sexual events" per month. In the trials on European women, flibanserin simply failed to beat the dummy pill. With data like that, the drug is going to need all the marketing help it can get."
The statistical conclusions that drug companies draw from their clinical studies should be more highly scrutinized because they have vested interests in the outcome of studies. Most pills that treat low libido have no significant efficacy, and convincing women that they have sexual disorder could prove to be very lucrative for the companies that "treat" the disease.
Female sexual dysfunction or "frigidity" as it was called in years past does not exist. Women simply have different sex drives than men, differing sex drives amongst themselves, and a variable of separate needs in order to achieve orgasm. Science has proven long ago that most women need more than penetration for climax to be achieved. Science has proven that women have different sexual cues that trigger different sexual responses. Science has proven that the same woman can be aroused by one behavior on one day and unresponsive to the same act the next day. And, science has proven that no matter how much individuals are alike they are still unique. There are some extreme cases when a woman may actually need medication to compensate for her low sex drive or her lack of enthusiasm about sex, however nearly half of all women are not suffering from a sexual affliction. If women are not enjoying sex, then they should not look to the pharmaceutical companies to fix them. They should seek to understand their own body, and guide their partners to what sexual and emotional behaviors please them. Female sexual dysfunction is a potentially lucrative lie that drug companies conjured up to make a lot of cash off sexually frustrated women, and our mothers, sisters, and even our daughters need to be wary of them.

This couple travelled all the way from America to a County Clare castle for their fairytale day
13th October 2015. Ceremony and reception at Dromoland Castle, Co. Clare followed by drinks at Dirty Nelly's
Photography by Tommy Hannon from Molten Sky Media
The couple
Brian and Cindy met via online dating site Match.com. "We both were older and looking for something more long term and found that being set up by friend and family wasn't working for either of us," Cindy begins.
The proposal
Brian popped the question during a holiday to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. "It was our last night in Mexico when Brian asked me to marry him," Cindy says, "he picked a restaurant that overlooked the ocean where we were able to watch the sunset. At the end of dinner Brian got down on one knee and asked me to marry him I was so shocked that I was speechless for a short time but said yes."
The American couple both dreamed of travelling to Ireland and getting married in a castle. "We were fortunate enough to find Collette O'Leary from Elegant Events, Dublin who helped us every step of the way in planning our wedding," Cindy says. "She was the one who suggested that we look at Dromoland and once we saw the pictures we knew that was the perfect place for our wedding."
Wedding planner
"Hiring Collette was the best decision that Brian and I made; we cannot say enough positive things about her and all of the work she put in to make our wedding day perfect," Cindy enthuses.
Wedding dress
The bride wore a Robert Bullock gown from Che Bella in Minneapolis. "I loved the dress because it was different it wasn't the typical white wedding dress," Cindy explains. "The belt that we added to the dress really made it come together. The first time I put on my dress I knew it was the one; I fell in love with it right away and knew that it was the dress I was going to wear at my wedding."
Grooms wear
Brian wore a Calvin Klein suit. "We knew that we didn't want the wedding to feel too formal so we opted for a three piece suit instead of a tuxedo," Cindy says. "Brian knew he wanted to wear grey with purple accents, which worked out perfectly as the flowers we chose had purple in them."
Wedding flowers
Dan from Lawless Flowers, Limerick created the flowers. "We chose to only have my bouquet and a boutonniere, my bouquet was amazing and turned out better then I imagined," Cindy says.
Wedding cake
Confetti Cakes, Limerick made a chocolate biscuit cake and macaroons.
Favourite moment
Brian: "The hand tying part of the ceremony it was something different and made the ceremony memorable."
Cindy: "It is so hard to pick just one favourite moment but seeing my husband for the first time that day was by far the best part. We were able to do the first look privately and Tommy our photographer captured some of my favourite photos of this moment. When people talk about what the dream of for their wedding this is the moment that I think is the most special and this is the moment that I dreamed of when I thought about weddings."

In a statement announcing the termination of the season, Geneseo Superintendent Tim Hayes said "a number of players" have been dismissed from the team.
"Due to the sheer number of student-athletes involved and the serious nature of this incident, pursuant to our Athletic Code and the New York State Public High School Athletic Association standards, the remainder of the varsity football season will be forfeited," the statement said.
The school also forfeited last weekend's 26-24 win over Bolivar-Richburg that had raised Geneseo's record to 2-2. The Livingston County News reported Geneseo Police Chief Eric Osganian confirmed his department was investigating allegations that a player took Oxycontin pills from a parent and gave them to teammates before Friday's victory.
The Geneseo Police investigation is being assisted by the Livingston County Sheriff because one of the individuals allegedly involved in the incident is related to a member of the village's police department, Osganian said.
There had been no arrests made as of late Monday afternoon.
The Genesee Sun reported that as many as seven players may have been involved in the incident. The most recent team roster on the Section 5 football website listed only 21 players, and state rules require a minimum of 16 available players for games.
More off-the-field news: Vestal played Saturday's football game vs. Johnson City without four players apparently suspended in the aftermath of group text messages that may have contained racially charged language, The Press & Sun-Bulletin reported.
Coach Marty Fisher said the suspensions were handed out by school administrators and that he supported the decision.
Vestal defeated Johnson City 28-6. Fisher termed the suspended players "crucial guys" and said he expects them to be back in uniform when the Golden Bears host Ithaca on Thursday.
Loyalty is not dead: Joe Munno, the founder and president of University Prep in Rochester, has told me more than once that Jeenathan Williams was a stand-up sort and an asset to the school for reasons beyond his prowess on the basketball court.
I haven't spoken to Munno since Williams' decision this summer to transfer to a California prep school, but I think I have a better understanding of what Munno meant.
Though he holds scholarship offers from multiple high-major programs -- including North Carolina State, Pittsburgh, Syracuse, Temple and Virgina -- Williams announced on
"I have decided to make a decision based on trust, loyalty and hard work," the 6-foot-5 Williams, a fifth-team all-state selection in Class AA as a junior, wrote in his announcement. "I want to create my own path, and pave the way for other kids in my shoes from Upstate NY."
Williams credited Buffalo head coach Nate Oats and assistant Brian Hodgson who "Were the first staff to offer me, and recruited me harder than anyone over the past three years. I firmly believe that a coach recruits you the way he plans to coach you and play you, and if that is the case, I am excited about my future ahead of me in Buffalo!"
Weekend leftovers: Kelsey Chmiel of Saratoga and Katherine Lee Shoreham-Wading River have already had some spirited battles on the cross country course, and they renewed the rivalry in impressive fashion at the Ocean State Invitational on Saturday in Rhode Island.
Chmiel won the girls Championship division in a course-record 17:34.7 to pace Saratoga to the team title. Lee was second in 18:18.44, nearly 100 yards ahead of the remainder of the field.
The previous course record was 17:48.54.
In the boys Championship division, St. Anthony's senior Mason Gatewood was edged at the line by Tristan Shelgren of Danvers (Mass.) St. John's Prep.

Dental implants are a great way to replace missing teeth and also provide a fixed solution to having removable partial or complete dentures. Implants provide excellent support and stability for these dental appliances.
Dental implants are artificial roots and teeth made of titanium that are surgically placed into the upper or lower jaw bone. The teeth attached to implants are very natural looking and often enhance or restore a patient's smile!
Dental implants are very strong, stable, and durable and will last many years, but on occasion, they will have to be re-tightened or replaced due to normal wear.
Reasons for dental implants:
The process of getting implants requires a number of visits over several months with Dr. Saxe and your restorative Dentist.
X-rays and impressions (molds) are taken of the jaw and teeth to determine bone, gum tissue, and spacing available for an implant. While the area is numb, the implant will be surgically placed into the bone and allowed to heal and integrate itself onto the bone for up to six months. Depending on the type of implant, a second surgery may be required in order to place the healing abutment. The restoration will be completed by your restoring dentist.
After several weeks of healing the artificial teeth are made and fitted to the post portion of the anchor. Because several fittings may be required, this step may take one to two months to complete. After a healing period, the artificial teeth are securely attached to the implant, providing excellent stability and comfort to the patient.
You will receive care instructions when your treatment is completed. Good oral hygiene, eating habits, and regular dental visits will aid in the life of your new implant.
For more information or to schedule an appointment, please contact the office of Dr. Steven A. Saxe, D.M.D. in Las Vegas, NV via email or call (702)258-0085

text: One of the most important and fundamental choices of modern leaders is to decide whether they will lead by map or by compass. Command-and-control-style management is about maps. It is about strict adherence to a chosen course, with no deviations allowed. It assumes someone at the top already knows the best path. It is about discipline, control and compliance. The problem is it creates a dependency mentality because management is about having the answers.

When I was a little kid, I believed everything people said. Like CPU is the computer's cabinet, cell phones cause brain cancer, Mac doesn't get the virus and what not.
But as I grew up and connected more to the tech world, I realized how many of them were a myth.
Recently I posted a video – Top 10 myth in technology. While doing my research, I came across some popular myth and some not so popular one.
So let's bust some myth, shall we?
1. WWW and the internet are the same
This is a common misconception that has been around decades. The Internet is more than 50-year-old while www or the web for short came into existence in the early '90s.
When we use the word 'internet', we talk about everything on the 'network of networks'. For instance, when you send an email, make video calls with Skype or watch a YouTube video, you are using the internet. Whereas you use the web when you browse the website on your browser.
Without the internet, there is no web but without the web, there will be still the internet.
Truth: www is a subset of the Internet.
Source: Wikipedia-Internet
2. Expensive HDMI cables are better than regular HDMI cable
If you have ever shop for HDMI cables, you would know they come to all prices. You can buy them for 2$ to up to 50$. This page on Amazon sells a 5 foot HDMI cable for 1000$. But the truth is all HDMI cable, are same.
In the world of HDMI cable there are no shades of grey, you either get everything, or you get nothing. Paying extra for gold-plated HDMI cable won't have any special effect on your picture quality.
Truth: All HDMI cables are the same
Source: Cnet
3. Deleted files can not be recovered
Many 'not so tech savvy' people believe that 'if they delete a file from recycle bin, it's gone forever.' But again this is not true.
When we empty our trash or delete files from recycle bin, they are not deleted immediately. The pointer to these files is deleted. This makes our OS believe that file is deleted. But your data is still there on your hard drive, waiting for another file to take its place.
Truth: If you act immediately you can still recover deleted files, using data recovery software.
Source: Wikipedia- Data recovery
4. 1 Mb/s and 1 MB/s are the same
MB/s stands for Megabyte/sec, and Mb/s means Megabits/sec. But since both in their short form sounds similar i.e. 'mbps'. People often get confused.
When you copy a movie file from pen drive to your computer, you see the speed in MB/s. But when your ISP talks about 4 Mb/s internet connection, they mean bits and not bytes. However, the average user doesn't know the difference.
1 MB/s = 8 Mb/s or
1Mb/s = 125KB/s
This means if you copy a 700 MB movie from pen drive to your computer, it will take you 700 sec assuming 1MB/s speed. But when you download the same movie from the internet then it will take 8x more time.
Truth: MB/s units for file transfer while Mb/s is for download speed.

5. Refresh speed up PC
Growing up as the child in India, I have often seen people, refreshing their Windows computer. And this made me wonder if this makes the computer run smoother. And in reality, it doesn't.
So what is the use of refresh? Let say you rename an icon on your desktop, but the effect is not showing up, In such cases, refreshing Windows is useful.
Truth: Refresh doesn't improve your computer performance or make it run smoother.
Source: Stack overflow (Link Dead)
6. Open Source means Free Software
Most Open Source software is – available for free, and you may even modify and redistribute them.
However, this doesn't necessarily mean all open source software is Free. Usually, open source is free, but it doesn't have to be like that. There are few tools (like Zimbra) and games ( like Battle for Wesnoth) that are open source but not a free.
Truth: Open source doesn't necessarily mean free.
Source: OpenSource
7. A magnet can erase hard drive
A bar magnet can erase data from Hard disk is a myth. Most magnet lying around found in the household cannot harm our storage. SSD are immune from any magnetic field, big or small. Smart covers also use the small magnet.
But this doesn't necessarily mean our computers and smartphones are totally safe from magnets? If you place your computer inside a giant magnet like an MRI scan, then it may corrupt your device. But for little ones you don't have to worry about anything.
Truth: Only a strong magnet can corrupt hard drives.

8. Overcharging destroys battery
When it comes to battery life, people often come up with their explanations. So if you heard the rumors like ' Leaving your phone, plugged in for a night, may kill the battery, then don't believe it.
Modern smartphones, run on lithium-ion batteries, which are smart enough to stop charging when they've reached their full capacity
So overcharging won't damage your battery, but heat can. If you have a habit to overcharge your phone, then make sure you remove its cover. The Best practice for the lithium-ion battery is to charge them between 40 to 80%.
Truth: Overcharging do not destroy the battery
Source: Mashable
9. Cell Phones cause brain cancer
Everyone knows "Cell phone emits radiation. But can it cause brain cancer? Well, As of now there have been many research and scientific studies, to find out the impact of cell phone radiation on the human brain. And the result is conflicting. It's still not clear whether mobile phones can cause brain cancer or not.
The only thing we know is, even though the cell phone use, has increased over the past two decades, rates of brain cancer patient did not rise. I suggest you watch this video by veritasium for in-depth analysis.
Truth: It is extremely less likely that cell phone can cause brain cancer, but if they do, then it might take decades to show its effect.
Source: veritasium
10. The computer doesn't Multi-task
The computer doesn't multitask like the way we think they do.
In simple words, Computer can switch the task very fast, which create an illusion that they are multitasking. And the technical term for that is context switch.
This page on wiki says ''In the case of a computer with a single CPU, only one task is running at any point.'
Truth: Computers switch task very quickly.
Source: Wikipedia-Computer multitasking
[Myth that is still not clear]
1. The laptop can make you sterile
Some people think it's a myth, and some don't. Well, the truth is, no one knows for sure. Some scientific studies have shown, that the heat generated from your laptop can decrease sperm count or even alter the DNA. But many disagree with the experiment.
On the other hand, nobody uses the laptop on their lap for a long time. But if you do, then stop doing it. It is always better to be safe than sorry.
Truth: Unclear
Source: Time
2. The cell phone doesn't cause a plane crash
Many airlines do not allow phone calls while you are airborne. In fact, every phone has a dedicated profile for it called Flight mode.
On the other hand, there is no incident reported, when a single cell phone has taken down the entire plane. Some airlines even allow phone usage during the flight
But pilots have often reported, cell phone causing interference with the aircraft navigation system. So a cell phone might not cause a plane down, but it can cause some serious trouble.
Truth: Cell phone doesn't cause place crash but may cause some other problem.
Source: Cnn
3. Rooting is legal
No clear law says rooting your Android or jailbreak your iPhone are legal or not. No universal law works for everyone. Countries decided whether you should root your phone or not.
To make it more complicated, I have seen these rules change as new laws are passed. A while back it was legal to root your Android, but you can't root your android tablet.
Truth: It depends on your country's law
Source: Wikipedia- Rooting
[ Edit 1: Some Other Myths ]
1. WiFi Radiations are harmful
No, they are not. People use WiFi everywhere, in their office, in their home and even in hospitals. WiFi radiations are non-ionizing i.e. it causes no harms to human cells and unlike a microwave, it creates little heat energy.
So don't worry and use WiFi all day long. Read more here.
Truth: Radiation of WiFi is safe
2. More Megapixels means a better camera
This is the biggest myth in tech, but fortunately, people now know that it's not true. More megapixel means more no. of a pixel in the photo.
Just like fast processor doesn't necessarily mean a faster computer.
Megapixels are not the only factor responsible. Things like sensor size, zoom, aperture, shutter, processor are equally important.
Truth: Megapixel is not the only criteria to determine a better camera.
3. Streaming YouTube video
Streaming is when you watch something on the server directly. Files are not downloaded to the local computer. A good example would be watching movies on Netflix.
But unlike popular belief, you don't stream YouTube videos. You download them on your computer first and then watch them. Depending on your OS, you can even find the video in your system cache.
Truth: You download YouTube video and then watch it.
4. When a program is free, you are the product
This is true for a few online services like Google, Facebook, etc. when they collect data from you and sell it to the advertiser. But now it has become a trend to apply this everywhere.
There are still many programs and service that free and don't sell you. A good example is Wikipedia and Linux OS.
Truth: Not every freeware, is stealing your data
5. 100% security
There is no 100% security in the world of computers. When we talk about security, we speak of time and resources need to crack the system.
For instance, to break a standard AES 256 bit encryption, you will need thousands of giant supercomputer operating 24/7 for thousands of years. Now, this a lot of time. But in the future, if we can come up with better technology than you crack the system.
Truth: With enough time and resources any security system can be compromised.
The biggest myth in the world is Everything You Read on the Internet is True. Anyone having access to the web can publish their thoughts. But that doesn't mean it's always true. So the rule of thumb, use your head. Don't believe what you read. Always do your research from multiple sources.

Positioning a Static block in the Left bar in Magento
If you do not have access to the Core PHP files in Magento you may struggle to change the layout of the left hand navigation. However you can add addition static blocks to the left hand or right hand sides by doing the following: Create a static block and add in the content you want displaying in the sidebar. Then in Catalog > Manage Categories select the subcategory you wish to assign the static block to and then click the Custom Design tab. In the Custom Design tab you should have the Page Layout set to how you want the page laying out so 2 columns with Left bar or right bar or 3 columns, then in the Custom Layout Update box add in the following code:
<reference name="left"> <block type="cms/block" before="block-compare" name="menspagedescription"> <action method="setBlockId"><block_id>menspagedescription</block_id></action> </block> </reference>This basically gets the ID of the static block you created menspagedescription and assigns it to the left hand column. It also adds it above the item in the left hand column called block-compare this block will obviously be different on your site as this is a plugin I have installed on the left hand side. You can find out what the block are called for your left hand side either by looking at the IDs in the backend of Magento or by using Firebug and it will show you the block class when hovered over the item.
This is the most simple method I have come across for positioning static content in the sidebars.

The 15 US Cities Where Poverty Is Soaring Fastest
Southern poverty has grown in an extreme way within America's post-recession landscape, according to a new report from the Brookings Institution.
Of the 15 metro areas where poverty is expanding at the greatest rates, nine are located in the South, with four in North Carolina and another three in Florida.
Metro areas include cities and their surrounding suburbs, where poverty has been expanding fastest.
The Brookings report analyzes the poverty levels in metro areas, examining the change between 2000 and the period of 2008-2012, which includes an average from a five-year Census estimate and shows the effect of the recession.
Business Insider previously looked at the Brookings report to see which U.S. cities had rapidly expanding poor neighborhoods. This analysis looks at the metro areas that saw the biggest overall increases in poverty. To do so, we ranked metro areas based on the change in poor population from 2000 through the 2008-2012 average.
For the year 2013, the Census set the poverty level at $12,119 for a single person under the age of 65 and $24,028 for a family of four.

Thursday 15 March saw 17 store colleagues gather in Angel Square's 'Innovation Centre', a nerve centre of ideas and future store concepts from the Leading the Way team.
They were there to take part in March's Store Manager Listening Session arranged by ourselves in Colleague Insight, a day that's designed to provide an opportunity to hear from teams around the business, offer feedback on existing or upcoming pieces of work, and give us their thoughts and feelings on how things are for them currently.
An extra bonus of the day was an hour's chat with our Retail Chief Executive, Jo Whitfield. The chance for an hour's conversation with the boss is a rare one, and Jo was very willing to hear a "warts and all" view of the challenges our store colleagues are facing at the moment. You can read more about this on the Colleague Insight intranet pages.
As well as hearing from them, Jo was able to give an update on how things looked from her perspective and gave some pointers about what was to come up for Food in the rest of the year.
She left the group with 3 key messages to take back to their colleagues in store;
- Believe in the plan
- Put the customer first
- Look after our colleagues
As well as Jo, several business areas from around the Support Centre were able to sit and talk through their world with the colleagues present, asking for the current feelings on how things work at the store level.
Among the topics discussed were store KPIs, the communications cascade and the top shelves project, where the comments and experiences of the colleagues were extremely useful in deciding what we do in the future.
They also had the chance to talk to a project manager from the wider Co-op team who discussed the very early stages of a new training project.
The learnings from a day like this feed into our quarterly hackathons, and help us keep the voice of the colleague front and centre in the minds of all in the Retail Support Centre.
By the time you're reading this we'll have just finished Quarter 1's Hackathon, an event where we gather 50+ colleagues in a big room and, as well as hearing about current projects, we get them involved in shaping future projects, working out solutions to the things that they're facing.
If you'd like to be involved in either type of session in the future (and they're not all held in Manchester), then email the team at email@example.com and we'll be in touch telling you when the next session is.

"Going After the Extra Nickels"
The possibilities of a big sales force thoroughly trained in
salesmanship and kept in a glow of enthusiasm for its work,
are wonderful. I did not realize the responsiveness of such
an organization until I put it to the test with a letter headed:
Get that extra nickel! This was sent to every store employee
in the chain and to those of the central staff who made the
rounds of the stores. In substance this letter read:
"The stores of this chain make twenty-five million sales
a year. Just think of what it would mean to this organization
if all the clerks and telephone operators would speed
up their salesmanship to a notch that would get an average
of just one extra nickel on each sale! Figure it out for
yourselves. It would mean a million and a quarter dollars
in additional business, secured without an additional cent
of cost. And it would mean increased pay for our whole
sales force. You know that your salaries are already higher
than those paid by stores outside of the chain to employees
in positions similar to yours, and that you have far more
attractive working conditions.
"Now if you will put your shoulders to the wheel for a
long, steady, constant pull to get that extra nickel on each
sale, we shall be able to do still more for you in your pay
envelope. Will you do it? Let us hear from you both by
letter and through the sales report."
The result of this letter was an immediate increase in sales
that was sensational in its size. And it was not a mere passing
spurt, either. Our clerks held to their quickened pace
with wonderful persistence, with the result that our profits
in that year were greatly increased—^just how much I am not
at liberty to say; and our employees who. helped to bring this
result about secured their fair share of the increase. But
the whole point of this incident is that there is always extra
speed in a sales force picked, trained, and treated with the
care ours receives. The splendid results of the "extra nickel"
campaign were possible only because our clerks were so thoroughly
instructed in the art of constructive salesmanship,
and because we had their enthusiastic loyalty.
32. There is one big difference between this case of
propagation'of an Ideal and the two preceding. In
this last, the employer is asking his employees to do

Ferguson pays tribute to Ruud van Nistelrooy
Coach Manchester United Manager sir Alex Ferguson paid tribute to the offensive team Ruud van Nistelrooy in comparing Manchester United and Arsenal. The Dutchman has scored 14 goals in their last nine games and now his score 43 goals in games for Manchester United this season."I think, undoubtedly, the fact that the game van Nistelrooy predetermined the outcome of the title race. When such a centre forward as he scores goals in crucial matches between the two teams was the difference. I know that he will become a great player. Not sure how big a player, I can only say that it surprises me constantly," said Ferguson on the official website of the club."When you lose the title, especially when long lead in fighting for it, I think second place is a big disappointment for Arsenal. But the fight is finished. We expect battles with the gunners next season and they will be, as I judge it based on personal experience. I feel my last year's decision not to leave the club was the best in my life."It's a fantastic feeling to once again become Champions, " continues Ferguson, Is a triumph of players. They showed commitment, reliability and will. This is a great achievement"..

Hide-and-Seek: A Fun Game to Play With Your Dog
A Fun, Stimulating Game to Play With Your Dog
It's late at night. My dog, Misha, has decided it's time for bed. I take her outside to do her business. When we come back inside she is ready for her favorite game: hide-and-seek.
Yes, the very same game you played as a child. Wasn't it fun speeding off while the seeker had their eyes closed? You rushed to find your hiding place, giggling the whole way.
It's the same game only different. Let's face it, dogs can't count. With a couple adjustments, a dog can learn how to play.
How to Play the Game With Your Dog
Hide-and-seek is composed of two elements: there is the one who is hiding, and there is the one who is seeking (it's pretty simple, really).
Dogs do best as seeker. Trust me. They tend to roam away or get really excited when they see you leaving, thus, ruining the whole "finding" part of the game. As seeker, a dog can be motivated to find things they love. It may be people, toys, or food. Whatever you choose, give your dog time to figure out the object of the game. Some take a little longer than others.
Here's how you do it:
- Leave your dog in one room. Then, hide.
- Don't pick a place that is too difficult at first. You want to be found.
- Call your dog. Do this in a happy, joy-filled manner. This is supposed to be fun!
- When your dog eventually finds you, make sure it knows how happy you are. Give verbal and treat rewards.
- Repeat a few times until the idea sinks in. After the dog gets the idea, you should be able to eliminate the treats.
What Motivates Your Dog?
There are many ways you can play this game:
- Hide yourself or another family member
- Hide a favorite toy
- Hide a favorite blanket
- Hide treats
My dog does okay with people, but won't even look for her toys. What Misha is motivated by is food. As long as I hide food, she will search for it. Sometimes she even persists long after the game is over.
Variation on the Theme: Use Treats or Toys
At some point, you might get tired of hiding. You can make the game more challenging by hiding a favorite toy or food.
First, secure your dog in a room. If you don't, it will be running right behind you which kind of defeats the purpose. Next, hide the toys or treats in fairly obvious places. It is going to take your dog awhile to get this, so you don't want it to be too difficult. You don't want to end up as seeker. Every time an object is found, lather on the praise.
Once you've played a couple of times, your praise should work as reinforcement. It doesn't take most dogs long to figure out what you want them to do, especially if food is involved.
If your dog is good with the sit/stay command, you can adjust the game by putting your dog in command before allowing it to find whatever you've hidden. This doesn't work with my dog. As a Jack Russell, her enthusiasm gets the better of her.
Is your space limited? Do you live in a small apartment where you can't play hide-and-seek? There are toys for that! Misha loves her dog treat dispensing puzzle toy. I hide a treat under the cups and she has to figure out how to get them out. She really has to put her brain to good use figure out which cup the treats are hidden under.
A Way to Say I Love You
Do you play games with your dog?
This Is Our Nighttime Ritual
Sometimes, Misha is a pain in the butt at bedtime. She's feisty and bratty when all I want to do is go to bed. Hide-and-seek seemed a perfect way to burn off some of that energy.
I break up a couple of treats into small pieces. Then, I hide them throughout the house. I have to change my hiding spots periodically because she remembers what I've done the night before. She runs around the house, from room to room, sniffing and searching. It can take her 20 minutes to find everything.
Towards the end, I will help her a bit. I never tell her where it is. Instead, I make a circle motion around the general area. For a dog who doesn't get it when I point directly at something (she usually looks at the end of my finger), she understands this surprisingly well.
After it's over, she wants a neck rub. It's hard work! Then, she lays down and that's it for the night.
Misha Plays Hide-and-Seek
Why Play Games With Your Dog?
Dogs need challenges just like humans. Most dogs need a job to do, some are even bred for it. When that stimulation is absent, they get bored, destructive, and bratty. When we play games like this one, we engage their brains. They enjoy the break in their routine and they love the rewards that go with it.
It is also a good way to burn off energy. The dog walks around for 15-20 minutes engaging many senses. Just watch the nose for the sniffing action! There is a lot going on. Different skills are necessary to play the game. It takes a lot of effort to find stuff. You'd be surprised how tiring it is!
Give the game a try. Modify it for your dog's needs. Your dog gets some activity and you get to sit down for a few minutes and rest.

Another Way to Play
You may live in an apartment or have very limited space. You can still play this game but in a different way:
- Find a couple of small cardboard boxes that you don't care about.
- Put a treat in one box or several.
- Close the box flaps, but don't use tape or anything else your dog might eat.
- Put the box on the ground and let your dog have at it. It may take a while for your dog to figure out there is a treat in the box.
- Depending on how smart it is, it might take some time to figure out how to get it out. You can use other objects like a pillowcase. Just remember that your dog will smash and chew whatever it is, so don't use your favorite stuff.
My previous dog used to love this game. She would work on a cardboard box for several minutes. Sometimes I would make it even more difficult by hiding a box within a box.
Whichever version of the game you choose, your dog is sure to love it. It will provide some busy time, puzzle solving, and activity. Not only is this good to do at bedtime, but it's a great game for a rainy or snowy day. Once your dog has mastered hide-and-seek, try a new game. There are so many that you two can play.
Questions & Answers

your doggy is cute, even dogs can play hide and seek, i wish my cat could
Hide-n-seek is one of our favorite games and one of the most played. We do several versions of it. The classic is with my dogs in a stay, I go hide and tell them to find me. The other my husband hides and I tell them to find him (which has turned also helpful when I can't find my husband) and the last we hide their favorite ball and they go searching for it. They love it!
On Friday night after work I would take a string and tie a large dog biscuit on a string and tie the other end to a branch off on our our many trees and let my rhodesian ridgeback find it she loved that game. Nice hub, Stella
I have a Min. Schnauzer who loves to play; especially in the evenings. She know exactly when it's playtime, too. Your little dog is adorable. Sometimes I hide from her, and she loves to find me. Her favorite game is fetch with her squeaky tennis ball.
Voted UP, etc. Mary
This is an enjoyable hub. My dog is called Misha too, although he's a male. He loves playing hide and seek for dog biscuits. He likes the challenge of the game, and of course he loves the reward!
This reminded me so much of playing with our dog! He is passed now but oh we used to have such a lot of fun. He Loved hide and seek, but being a retriever it wasn't enough to find a person, he still had to have something to carry after finding, so the person always had to have a ball or kong or something to give him.
I don't have a dog now, I used too. Loved reading about playing hide and seek with your dog, it really made me smile.
I would never have thought about playing a game like that with a dog. Excellent, I voted it up.
I do this at least once a day with our dogs! It's kind of half hide and seek, half tag, I guess. "Hide and seek tag"?
This reminded me of the fun my own dog had with this type of game when she was younger and before she went blind. She is not very playful these days except in a more subdued way, but she once would run from room to room to find me or the grandchildren.

Dear Donors & Supporters,
We have started the fund as "Save Chennai" but have now expanded to help and assist the tremendous volunteer effort going on in Cuddalore, which is in dire need of help. We have started our due-diligence to identify and support relief workers supporting the recovery and rehabilitation in Cuddalore. Our campaign mission has been updated to reflect that, and more details on the NGOs we support in Cuddalore will be updated soon.
We are moving to a more critical phase of Rehabilitation & Recovery, and our funds will be dedicated to ensure that people have the resources to get back on their feet and, slowly but surely things go back to normalcy. Our funds will directly be diverted to organizations working towards that effort.
We will continue to accept donations so we can maximize the impact on the field with our network of "verified" NGOs and volunteers doing excellent work for the people affected during this crisis.
We understand that all of you as donors want to make sure that any campaign they donate to is "VERIFIED" and "LEGITIMATE". Rest assured, we will be accountable for the entire amount raised, and that it reaches the masses who need it the most.
Once again, thank you all for your support. Without all of you we would not have been able to do what we have so far. Please continue to share this campaign on your social media and with your professional contacts.
Best regardsAbdulBasith
