Family Child Care Record Keeping Guide, 9th Edition
Product Code: 543970
Format: Softbound
Publisher: Redleaf Press®
Everything you need to keep accurate records for your family child care business and save money on your taxes
Operating a family child care program can be both difficult and rewarding. Few people give as much of themselves or accept more responsibility than you do as a family child care provider. And few are more deserving of the satisfaction that comes from helping children learn and grow. However, there are other challenges that are equally important—taking care of your business by tracking your expenses, doing your taxes, and meeting government requirements.
This resource covers everything you need to keep accurate business records and save money on your taxes. If you pay close attention to the recommendations in this book, you will be able to claim the maximum allowable deductions and pay the lowest possible federal taxes.
This latest edition of Family Child Care Record-Keeping Guide includes descriptions of two new IRS depreciation rules that make it much easier to deduct items you previously had to depreciate. It also explains why you should avoid using a new Simplified Method to claim house expenses that benefits other home-based businesses, but not family child care providers. New clarifications on bartering, claiming hours as part of the Time-Space percentage, non-deductible expenses, bundled utility expenses, travel expenses, gifts, conducting a household inventory, business meals, and red flags are provided, as well as new links to outside resources where the latest tax information can be accessed. The information in this book applies to child care providers in every state, regardless of local regulations.

Green Bank, West Virginia, a town of 147, sits inside the National Radio Quiet Zone, a 13,000 square mile area of land near the Virginia border. Green Bank is surrounded by national and state forests and parks like so many other secluded rural towns in the United States. It is not, however, surrounded by the radio signals that crisscross the rest of the country. There are no cellphone towers, no AM or FM radio stations. Thanks to the National Radio Quiet Zone, the skies above Green Bank are effectively dead air.
The radio-free Quiet Zone fills one important purpose and a second coincidental one. It was established by the FCC in 1958 to protect the National Radio Astronomy Observatory in Green Bank from interference; the observatory operates the largest steerable radio telescope in the world. Of growing importance, however, is the fact that the Quiet Zone protects its inhabitants from radio signals as well.
Most of us don't think twice about needing to protect ourselves from radio signals. We use Wi-Fi and cell phones every day. Everything plugged into a wall socket gives off some low level radiation. While some studies have raised concerns about cell phones eventually causing cancer, we never think twice about the electromagnetic fields emitted by our refrigerators, televisions, or microwaves. Some of Green Bank's residents, however, worry about all of those things. In fact, they moved to Green Bank specifically to get away from it all.
Slate just published an article titled Refugees of the Modern World, detailing the issues some people have with electromagnetic hypersensitivity, or EHS. As the name implies, EHS sufferers are unusually sensitive to radiation that isn't harmful to the rest of us, and several dozen have moved to Green Bank in recent years to live in relative isolation. Some still use electronics in their homes, but they're still protected from the radio signals that would fill the air in most other parts of the country.
EHS is fascinating because the symptoms are most definitely real, but scientists aren't convinced that electromagnetic radiation is the cause. Slate details the conviction of several Green Banks residents and how much the National Radio Quiet Zone has improved their health. But it also dives into studies that have returned inconclusive results about EHS:
"James Rubin, a psychologist at King's College London who studies psychogenic illnesses, has analyzed the literature on provocation studies and conducted some at his own lab. His most recent meta-analysis—which covered 1,175 participants in 46 studies—found no rigorous, replicable experiment in which radio frequencies were identified at rates greater than chance. 'It is definitely the case that some people experience symptoms that they attribute to electromagnetic frequencies,' he told me. 'But is it really these frequencies causing the symptoms? At the moment, we can say that there simply isn't any robust evidence to support that.' "
Slate also covers the opposition--some claim that the settings those tests were conducted under (in labs where other devices emitting radiation would be present) undermines the test. But there's a counter to that, too:
"Rubin points out that many provocation studies start with an unblinded stage, where the participants are truthfully told whether the electromagnetic field is on. 'They almost always report symptoms when they know it is on, and not when they know it is off,' Rubin said. 'In the second stage, when the experiment is repeated double-blind, they report symptoms to the same extent in both conditions.' When the participants know whether the field is on, in other words, contaminant radiation and frequency specificity suddenly aren't such big problems."
It's a fascinating issue. EHS deserves more tests, and its symptoms are either resulting from a widespread psychological effect--a buildup of stress or other issues related to the always-on nature of the modern world--or genuine sensitivity to radiation. Either way, more and more people in the future will turn to places where electronics and electromagnetic radiation aren't so prevalent. Slate's article covers the social issues Green Bank's new issues are causing, international initiatives from EHS sufferers to see the condition recognized, and more--it's well worth a read.

Balance from Within(US)
Mechatronic Sculpture
Jacob Tonski (US)
Balance comes from within. It's a delicate act and sometimes we fall down. A 170-year-old sofa balances precariously on one leg, continuously teetering, responding internally to external forces. A meditation on the nature of human relations and the things we build to support them.
Balance from Within was made possible with support from Frank-Ratchye Studio for Creative Inquiry (studioforcreativeinquiry.org) and Miami University, Ohio, College of Creative Arts (miamioh.edu/sca).
Artist bio:
Jacob Tonski holds an MFA from the Design | Media Arts department at the University of California, Los Angeles. He studied computer science at Brown University and worked as a Technical Director at Pixar Animation Studios. Recently he has presented at the Haystack Mountain School of Craft and The School for Poetic Computation. He was awarded a 2013 Sustainable Arts Foundation grant and was a 2010 fellow at the Carnegie Mellon University Studio for Creative Inquiry. He is currently an assistant professor of art and interactive media studies at Miami University, Ohio. His creative work has been exhibited in Brazil, in China, and throughout Europe and the United States.

Aerobic exercise is any kind of continuous activity that lasts for more than 20 minutes, and increases the blood supply and oxygen delivery to all of your tissues. Aerobic exercise is one of the most beneficial things that you can do for your entire body. Thankfully, it does wonders for the spine as well. Research shows that it markedly decreases chronic pain, including pain from your neck and back. People who are aerobically fit have much less pain than people who are not.
We recommend that you exercise until you are slightly short of breath and working up a sweat. You should be able to carry a few-word conversation but not be able to sing a song. Maintain this slightly short of breath state for at least 20 minutes, ideally more. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that adults get at least 150 minutes (2.5 hours) of moderate-intensity aerobic activity every week and 2 or more days a week of muscle-strengthening activities that work all major muscle groups for weight maintenance; this time increases for weight loss. Such an endorsement for physical activity stems from the well documented health benefits from regular exercise.
Physical Effects
Exercise is a wonderful way to give yourself and emotional lift or to burn off stress from a hectic day. Physical activity stimulates the release of various brain chemicals that can leave you feeling happier and more relaxed. When you exercise, your body puts out chemicals called endorphins. These are naturally occurring morphine-like substances that the body produces in response to pain. Endorphins are the substance that probably give marathon runners a "runner's high". This natural pain killing substance is produced in large amounts in people who exercise on a regular basis. In addition, regular aerobic exercise improves your cardiovascular function. Your heart works more efficiently as a pump, and your body begins building new blood vessels to supply the muscles, bones, and joints. One of the reasons why you get pain when you have arthritis is that there is not enough oxygen delivered to the bones, joints and cartilage in-between the bones. If you exercise on a regular basis, oxygen delivery to these arthritic joints is improved, and therefore, pain is diminished. We see many patients who avoided surgery on their neck or back as a result of taking up vigorous aerobic exercise as a means to combat their pain.
If you exercise on a regular basis, you will find that you will need less sleep, work efficiently, have sustained energy, experience less pain, and be in a better mood. Exercise brings positive changes to all aspects of your life. Control your weight through exercise as it helps you to reach and maintain a healthy weight by increasing your metabolism. Exercise promotes better sleep to help you fall asleep faster and deeper with less interruptions. Studies also suggest that exercising can combat daytime sleepiness so you can be a more productive person at work or at home. Just remember not to work out too close to your bedtime or you may be too energized to fall asleep! Physical improvements in muscle strength and tone, endurance, and cardiovascular function can all enhance sexual functioning in both men and women.
Exercise is prevention. Combat health conditions and diseases with exercise. Exercise has been shown to improve mental function, decrease the risk of Alzheimer's, increase stamina and bone density, and elevate mood. Regular physical activity can help prevent or manage a wide range of health problems including Cardiovascular Disease, Stroke, Metabolic Syndrome, Type 2 Diabetes, Arthritis, Depression and reduce risk for some cancers. Physical activity can reduce the risk of breast, colon, endometrial, lung and prostate cancer.
Low-Impact Cardio Fitness
Remember not all physical activity needs to take place in the confines of a gym. You can "sneak" physical activity into your daily routine by taking the stairs instead of the elevator, walking on your lunch break, or even parking farther away from your entrance to work or the grocery store. We recommend all forms of low-impact cardiovascular fitness. High impact activities such as running, plyometrics, repetitive jumping cause additional strain on your spinal discs.
Bicycling is a great way to stay in shape! You can bike on a trail or road outside and soak up some Vitamin D while you're at it or ride indoors at home or the gym with a stationary bike. Additional lumbar support is available is seated reclined bikes. If you are new to bicycling, remember that bicycling does not provide great conditioning of the back muscles. For some people, poor posture on the bike can increase strain on the neck or low back. Back strengthening exercises and core strengthening are important to do with your fitness routine to prevent injury. If you are riding your bike over rough terrain or over long distances, increased jarring and compression can affect the discs in the spine, which can also cause back pain. In order to prevent back pain or injuries when bicycling it is important to choose the best bicycle for your purpose. When choosing a bicycle, getting the advice of an experienced rider or a professional bicycle shop can ensure that you have the best bike for your body and your riding style. For more tips read Dr. Good's post.
Swimming is a wonderful whole body work-out and is the most low-impact environment we have to work-out in. Swimming will help you build cardiovascular endurance without feeling like you are dripping in sweat. You build endurance, improve your circulation and can rehab injuries in the pool. If lap swimming bothers your neck for breathing, swim with a snorkel! It will keep your spine in neutral position without irritating your neck! In addition to swimming you can walk in the water or try deep water running with a flotation device. Water Strength toning can complement swimming by sculpting your muscles using the resistance of water.
The elliptical machines are a great way to mimic jogging without the added jarring stress on your joints. Using an elliptical machine is less stressful on your knees, hips and back than is running on a treadmill or outdoors. Elliptical machines come equipped with movable upper body poles allowing you to also exercise your arms. The extra rotational movement can bother people's hips who suffer from sacroiliac joint pain. If this is you, simple avoid using the arm component and keep your hands supported in the center. Most elliptical machines can be pedaled in reverse, giving you the added benefit to work opposing muscles more. If the elliptical continues to bother your knees, try to use a stationary bike which has even less stress on your joints or go for a swim!
Walking is a great, low impact exercise that is not as strenuous as other forms of physical activities. Thankfully, the only special gear needed is a good pair of shoes with a flexible sole and proper arch support. Make sure you warm up your muscles by walking in place. To make the most out of your walking sessions, pace and distance will surely give gauge your results. If you are a beginner walker, gradually increase your time and pace. The speed at which you walk should be as brisk as your condition permits. Cool down and end your walk with about five minutes of a much slower paced walk then finish with stretching.
Stairs are often overlooked as a way to work-out. Walking up stairs at a moderate intensity burns approximately 7 calories a minute for a 150-pound person. Many health clubs now offer stair stepper machines and of course, if you keep your eyes open stairs are everywhere! Make it a point to skip the elevator and find the stairs where ever you go. Stair stepping is a low-impact workout that gives maximum value in little time. Remember going up is much easier on your joints than coming down. If you have knee pain, walk up and take a ride down! If you can, jog up the stairs and walk back down.
Please talk to your doctor if you have a chronic health condition such as arthritis, diabetes, or heart disease, to evaluate if your condition limits your ability to be active. Work with your doctor to develop an exercise plan that matches your abilities. Our providers at the Virginia Spine Institute are always willing to work with you. Start slowly, and keep at it. You will find significant benefits not only for your pain but also to the rest of your body.

You might feel incredibly frustrated if you care about someone who refuses help. Helping someone with an alcohol problem can be difficult to navigate as you may want to help but not enable them. One of the biggest ways you can help someone is by showing your care and support of them as a person, not as an alcoholic. Be available to listen, offer supportive words instead of judgment, and manage your own reactions to their behavior.
Part 1 of 3:
Changing Your Approach
1Educate yourself. Addiction is a chronic problem that leads to poor decision making and problems at home, work, and social life.[1] Many addicts think they can control their behavior yet struggle to do so. They may actively seek escape from stress or worries of life and may not know how else to cope outside of alcohol.
- Alcoholics are not bad people, they are people who struggle to cope with daily life.
- Before you decide to help someone, consider whether they show signs of being an alcoholic. These may include trying to cut back and not being able to, spending a lot of time drinking or recovering from hangovers, engaging in risky behaviors due to drinking, having issues with family and friends because of their drinking, or having to drink more than they used to.[2]
- The effect of alcohol is biphasic, which means that when BAC (blood alcohol concentration) levels are rising, the stimulant properties of alcohol are more pronounced; when BAC levels are falling, the depressant effects of alcohol are more pronounced. When you are approaching a person who has been drinking they likely will have two different reactions: they may feel positive and stimulated when BAC is rising and may feel alone, depressed, or even suicidal when BAC is dropping.[3]
2Sustain your support. Affirm any positive choices they make. Point out positive behaviors and steps forward the person makes, even if it doesn't involve treatment. Stay positive in your interactions with the person. Let the person know that they can count on you for support and positive feedback.
EXPERT TIPSarah Gehrke, RN, MS
- Recovery is often an ongoing process. Even if the person agrees to get help, they may change their mind or experience slip-ups. Support the person in their ups and downs, and support them attending meetings, treatment, and support groups.[4]
Registered Nurse
Sarah Gehrke, a Registered Nurse, recommends: "When you choose to talk about the alcohol use disorder, be sure to keep the conversation simple and tell the truth about your feelings."
3Avoid certain behaviors. If someone has made it clear to you that they do not want help, don't force the issue. Don't constantly bring up conversations about alcohol. Don't pressure the person, either. While you may interpret the situation as dire, the person may still be in denial about their problems, and your pressuring will likely make them feel more justified in their actions.[5]
- While it can be difficult to engage with someone who is resistant to help, don't avoid the person, either. It may be easier to remove yourself from their life, but you may want to be available for when they are ready to talk.
- Instead of getting down on the person, say, "We care about you and want you to get help."
4Don't take things personally. If the person makes yet another broken promise or lies to you, don't take it personally.[6] Especially if the person is irrational while using, don't get upset or fight with the person. Alcohol can change the person's behavior and make them act in ways that aren't congruent at all times.
- Remind yourself that you love this person and that they are not in a position to be rational.
Part 2 of 3:
Interacting with the Person
1Be available to listen. Be available to listen when this person needs a friend.[7] Even if the person does not want help now, they may want some support in the future. Let them know that while you don't approve of their alcoholism that you are available to talk and listen if they need it.
- Communicate that you are willing to be a friend when they need friendship.
2Express honesty. Share your thoughts and feelings honestly with the addicted person, letting them know how you feel. Put the focus on you and not on them, as this can cause guilt or shame. For example, instead of saying, "You're destroying yourself and making bad decisions" say, "I don't get to see you anymore, which makes me sad. I miss having you as a part of my life." Let the person know you are worried and are impacted by their drinking.[8]
- Express your willingness to be supportive as well. Say, "I really don't like how alcohol has impacted our relationship. While this is painful for me, I want to support you because I care about you."
3Offer to help. If the person expresses interest in seeking treatment, offer to help them however you can.[9] Help them look up treatment facilities, detoxification programs, support groups, or whatever else they are interested in exploring. Offer to drive them to appointments or support them in certain life changes.
- If the person isn't quite ready for help, make one offer, then wait for them to ask you. If you constantly offer help, the person may become off-put by you and your good intentions.
- Get informed on local resources for alcohol addiction. For example, look up community groups for alcoholism, treatment specialists, and treatment programs. That way, you can be ready to share information with the person.[10]
Part 3 of 3:
Responding to Problem Behaviors
1Handle crisis situations. If the person is a danger to themselves or others, call emergency services immediately.[11] The person may be acting recklessly or endangering their life or the lives of others. If this is the case, get help immediately. Even if the person does not want help, immediate intervention may be necessary.
- In the USA, call 911; in England, call 999; in Australia call 000.
2Set limits. If this person's behavior negatively impacts your life, be clear in setting limits for what is and is not acceptable. For example, do not lie on behalf of the person. Tell the person not to call you or come to your home if they have been drinking. Let them know that you will not give them money under any circumstance.[12] Communicate whatever limits feel appropriate to you.
- While it's difficult to watch someone you care about be destructive, do not enable the person's behavior. Decide how you will be in the person's life and make clear boundaries for your role.
3Stage an intervention. Interventions can be a highly effective way of showing the addict that they have a problem and that people are concerned about them. They can help the addict realize that there is a problem and who people care. An intervention can also provide hope by outlining treatment options and facilities available to the person.[13] While some interventions may be beneficial in a one-to-one setting, having the presence of many people who love and care about the person can be impactful.
- Meet with an intervention specialist to help you plan and carry out an effective intervention.
Community Q&A
QuestionMy wife is an alcoholic. She has left me for another alcoholic and filed for divorce. What can I do?Sarah Gehrke, RN, MSSarah Gehrke is a Registered Nurse and Licensed Massage Therapist in Texas. Sarah has over 10 years of experience teaching and practicing phlebotomy and intravenous (IV) therapy using physical, psychological, and emotional support. She received her Massage Therapist License from the Amarillo Massage Therapy Institute in 2008 and a M.S. in Nursing from the University of Phoenix in 2013.
Registered NurseRegistered NurseExpert AnswerYou are brave for seeking help...just asking can be a challenge is a good first step. You cannot put blame on yourself at this point. Blaming yourself or blaming your partner at the time will only put a road block in your healing process. Discuss your situation with a trusting and supportive family member, friend, or a support group. Additionally, a counselor and/or professional help would be a useful addition in your situation.
QuestionWhat if my child is an alcoholic and is living with me?Community AnswerBasically, do the same things listed above. Being a parent of an alcoholic is a difficult position to be in, because children seem to feel like they can confide in their friends more than they can you. Trying to act more like a friend than a parental figure can help a lot and make it easier for them to talk to you.
Unanswered Questions
What if they know they have an issue, but don't want any help? They understand that it is impacting everyone, but then use feeling bad as a reason to drink.

In the latest VitalSigns report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the focus is heroin addiction. Heroin use has more than doubled in the last decade among people between the ages of 18 and 25, and thousands of lives are being lost to the drug each year.
The CDC listed out several points that need to be considered in each state to help reduce the drug's impact. These include:
- Use all available tools to reduce the prescription painkiller use and availability, as they represent the biggest risk factor for developing a heroin addiction
- Increase access to substance abuse treatment services for those abusing or addicted to the drug
- Expand access to and training for administering naloxone to reduce opioid overdose deaths
- Increase efforts for reducing harm through a variety of prevention and intervention tactics
- Share best practices with other communities and help them get implemented around the nation
In addition to the above information, additional facts were shared to help increase awareness. One of them was the fact that nearly every heroin user also uses other drugs or alcohol, and poly-substance abuse also increases the chances of drug interaction and compounding negative effects.
While many government agencies continue to push medication-assisted treatment such as using methadone or buprenorphine as long-term maintenance drugs, we try to help people explore the option of finding treatment centers that use other methods for rehabilitation first. Dependency on another form of opioid should be a last resort for the course of treatment in our book. We very routinely get calls from people looking for Suboxone clinics, and we are often able to help them find other alternatives to consider.
If you know of someone who needs help to recover from a heroin problem, call us today for more information and resources for recovering from substance abuse.

Florrie was going to come to Queens today to cook, because the movers were coming and everything would have been packed up. But as it turns out they didn't show up on time and their lateness would have seriously cut into our cooking time. So I decided to go to the little apartment in Brooklyn one last time. The movers were in full force by the time I got there and Modern Margot and I spent the better part of 3 hours waiting in the hall, tapping our toes until we could get into the kitchen. Boy was Florrie heated. Ok. Maybe not really heated. But we did finally lose our patience and kick them out. Nicely of course :o) The actual moving day was going to be friday so they could finish up then.
We kept cooking simple this time so that we wouldn't need too many accouterments and decided to make Gelato. All we needed was the mixer and the ice cream machine. What we made was Olive Oil Gelato to be exact. Well, a batch of Olive Oil Gelato and a batch of Avocado Gelato to be precise. But you know me, I'm not exactly precise.
We halved the olive oil recipe and substituted avocado in batch number two. I figured, Olive Oil Gelato could go either way, and who wants an whole batch of sketchy ice cream? Not this cowgirl. Besides that avocado was equally weird sounding. After the last mover left, we started cookin. Well, we started mixing. We didn't actually have to cook anything. Gelato is super easy, you just mix egg yolks with sugar until it forms a ribbon, then add the oil/avocado and beat some more, until its a cloud-like fluffy consistency. Its lovely. Isn't that olive oil gorgeous? It was the prettiest peridot green. We used Berio Extra virgin Olive Oil, I think we would have gotten better results if we had used a more yellow, lighter tasting oil. It was good, but it was a little strong. After the yolks and sugar were a pale lovely mess, we drizzled spoonful after spoonful of that pretty oil into the batter. Since we halved the recipe, and I am not a mathlete, I put a little too much oil. Its sad, but these things happen. It wasn't a
total wash though. We added some cream, and some milk and mixed it a bit more. Here's the ice cream machine in action, look at it go! Then we put it into a plastic container and put it into cold storage. It was pretty tasty. The cream was cold and sweet, and the fruity taste of the olive oil made an unusual contrast. It had a bit of a strange aftertaste though, Flo thinks it made the flavor of the egg yolks stand out too much. I'm not sure about that, but it left something. Flo had a brainstorm and put a little honey on top, and not only did it cut the after taste, but it enhanced and made the olive oil flavor even better. It was a very pretty pale greenish yellow, too. Yum! Moving on to Avocado! While the other set of egg yolks and sugar were beating in the mixer Flo cut up a whole ripe avocado, diced it (carefully) in the shell. Don't worry, she's a professional. The avocado was so soft that we only needed to do a small dice, then we chucked it into the mixer with the yolk/sugar mixture. It immediately increased in volume, and turned a really pretty celery green. I suppose that the fat content of the avocado had some sort of lovely effect on the egg yolk fats and they fell in love. It sure looked like it. The sugar really brought out the delicate green flavor of the avocado. I'm used to it being in savory dishes, but this was truly something special. Just look at how pretty that mixture is! We added all the cream, but wanted to retain that thick texture so we only added half the milk. After going round in the ice cream machine a few hundred times it was gelato! The avocado was a rousing success! It was gorgeous. There was a moment when we added the cream to the mixture and it turned an even brighter shade of green. It was very pretty, though I thought the original pale green was prettiest. It was too good to wait. We spooned some (very) soft serve gelato into some bowls and went to town. the rest we stowed in the freezer for later. I suggest you make some right away!

Andromeda Device spotted in New York on June 2nd 2000
Two residents of Mineola, New York have spotted a cigar shaped UFO or Imperial German Andromeda Device. New York has a long history of Cigar Shaped UFO sightings. The article states that there was virtually no cigar shaped UFO before 1950. This correlates to the fact the Imperial Germans did not have a large fleet in 1950. Nevertheless the number of cigar shaped UFO activities have increased dramatically from two sightings per decade (from the 1950s 1990s) to nearly a dozen sightings per year in the year 2009. Today about 5% of all cylinder UFO sightings are seen in the New York Area. In 2014 around 258 cigar shaped UFOs have been seen globally. Source: Cigar shaped UFO Sightings New York
This chart shows a dramatic increase of cigar shaped UFO sightings in New York. From 3 sightings in 2000 to 18 in 2011. We all know that New York is the financial powerhouse of the Zionist controlled West. Even Adolf Hitler contemplated on destroying New York using the German made nuclear bomb. Hitler refused to use the nuclear bomb. New York is under Zionist control. At the same time Al Bielek and the Montauk Project took place in New York. So called experiments in time. We can only speculate on why so many Andromeda Devices are seen in the vicinity of New York in these times.

Andromeda Device spotted in Brazil on December 2013
Andromeda Device or cylindrical UFO has been spotted in Brazil. Brazil is a hot bed of cigar shaped UFOs and conventional UFO Flight Gyros like the Haunebu 1, 2 and Vril 1,2 Fighters. There are many Imperial German bases in the jungles of Brazil. According to Jan Udo Holey aka Jan Van Helsing there are caves in Brazil that lead to the Inner Earth of Agharta.

What is Brain Tissue Underdevelopment?
The cerebellum is one of the largest portions of a cat's brain. This portion is located next to the cerebrum and the brainstem. Brain tissue underdevelopment in cats occurs when some parts of the cerebellum do not fully develop. The condition can occur because of genetic factors or may be caused by toxins, infections, and nutritional deficiencies. The symptoms of this condition often present when a cat is about six weeks old. Brain tissue underdevelopment is a neurological condition that is not contagious or progressive. It leads to balance and walking problems in cats; kittens with underdeveloped cerebellum often have problems with coordination and movement are usually referred to as wobbly cats. In this medical condition, the part of the brain that controls movement and coordination of a cat is underdeveloped. In most cases, kittens are born with the disorder. Despite the fact that it is untreatable, cats with the condition can continue living normal lives.
Symptoms of Brain Tissue Underdevelopment in Cats
The severity of the disorder in kittens varies. Some cats may experience only a slight limp while others may have trouble moving around.
Cats with brain tissue underdevelopment may experience the following:
- Difficulty with mobility
- Head tremors while trying to focus
- Vision problems
Brain tissue underdevelopment should not affect a cat's lifespan. Because the condition is not progressive there is no worry about it getting worse. In some instances, the cat's condition and movement coordination may improve with time.
Causes of Brain Tissue Underdevelopment in Cats
The development of the cerebellum can be affected by several factors. One of the most common causes of brain tissue underdevelopment in cats is infection by the panleukopenia virus during pregnancy. If the mother is not vaccinated against the virus it passes on the virus to the kittens, who may then suffer from brain tissue underdevelopment. Research indicates that there is an 11-day window for cat to kitten transmission of the virus. The kittens do not contract the infection or carry it; only the growth of the cerebellum is affected. The condition also occurs when a cat experiences trauma or malnutrition while pregnant. These factors may cause brain tissue underdevelopment in the unborn kittens.
The severity of the condition and number of kittens that contract it is determined by the stage of development of the cat fetus in the uterus as well as the extent of the infection. It is normal for all one or any number of kittens in a litter to have the condition and for the severity of the condition to vary.
Diagnosis of Brain Tissue Underdevelopment in Cats
Vets often consider cat's medical histories when diagnosing brain tissue underdevelopment. A complete physical exam is also necessary to determine the affected cat's blood count and blood chemical profile. The cat will also undergo urine and electrolyte panel exam. These tests are often done to rule out other brain infections and the presence of environmental toxins.
In kittens, the signs are visible after weeks or even months. Kittens passed the infant stage often do not show signs of further progression of the disorder. Diagnosis often involves an evaluation of a cat's breed, age, family history, health history, and non-progressiveness of the condition. Consider seeking professional diagnosis from a veterinarian with experience in diagnosing and treating neurological disorders. An MRI is one of the best ways to diagnose the condition in kittens. If you notice new or progressive symptoms, your cat may suffer from a different condition. To rule out other conditions as the reason for your cat's neurological problem, a vet will recommend a combination of tests including EMG, ultrasound, parasitic screening, CT scan, urinalysis, CBC, CSF, and serum chemistry profile analysis.
Treatment of Brain Tissue Underdevelopment in Cats
Brain tissue underdevelopment is a congenital condition that does not have a known cure. Despite being a permanent condition, it does not worsen with time. Some cats become more mobile with time as they learn to manage and live with their condition.
Recovery of Brain Tissue Underdevelopment in Cats
Cats with brain tissue underdevelopment often have problems with mobility and coordination. In addition, cats with the disorder often find it difficult to defend themselves in a fight or while playing with other cats. This means that you will have to take extra precautions to protect your cat and prevent it from suffering injuries. Your cat will need extra care if it has a severe case of brain tissue underdevelopment and cannot groom or feed itself or become house trained. Cats with brain tissue underdevelopment make as great pets as normal cats; they only need extra care and attention.
Brain Tissue Underdevelopment Questions and Advice from Veterinary Professionals
My kitten was abandoned at what I like about a week. Her eyes weren't quite opened yet, and she didn't have teeth (or very tiny ones). I bottle fed her, and now she's about 10 (give or take) weeks old. It's hard to litter box train her. Is there any advise you can give me? Could her brain be under developed because of her abandonment? She's also very tiny. She's about the size of a 5-6 week old kitten. Could that possibly be because of the same thing?

What is Paradigm's 30th Anniversary Series
and What Makes it Unique?
A milestone anniversary is a unique opportunity to pause and reflect on what in Paradigm's case has been a remarkable journey. From modest beginnings in Toronto, Canada, our speakers are now sold on six continents. We have won hundreds of product awards and received thousands of rave reviews. The Paradigm Reference 30th Anniversary Series is meant to commemorate and celebrate that journey. It is a visual, design and technology composite of what we have learned over thirty years. In other words, a labor of love. It is a true limited edition, part of a very small production run. There will be no additional production once quantities run out. And there will never be another series like it.
High-Frequency Drivers
- P-Be™ Pure-Beryllium Tweeter Domes: Beryllium was first used in our ultra-high-end Signature Series speakers, chosen for its exceptional thermal, physical and mechanical properties. It is lighter than diamond or aluminum with unmatched rigidity. Anniversary Series response is instantaneous and uniform. Elevating the tweeter dome ever so slightly promoted optimal off-axis dispersion.
- Die-Cast Chassis with Diffraction Control Architecture: The die-cast aluminum eliminates flexing and ringing while also providing a heatsink for superior power handling. The anti-diffraction cross-hatching visible across the elegant tweeter panel prevents edge diffraction and other unwanted sound reflections from interfering with sound output.
- Ferro-Fluid Cooled and Damped Motor Structures: Ferro-fluid cooling promotes extended frequency response and superb power handling. High-temperature copper voice coils and ventilated Apical™ formers ensure accuracy, reliability and linearity.
- Powerful Neodymium Magnet Structure: Promotes an extremely high field force in the magnetic gap.
- Vented Soft-Iron Magnetic Pole Piece: Computer-optimized to work in tandem with the magnet to concentrate flux on the voice coil.
- Rear Volume Piece: Shaped and sized to deliver that sought-after 'rear-chamber' effect in which opportunities for unwanted resonances to colour output are dramatically reduced by the increase in chamber volume.
- Bass/Midrange Cones: Cone material presents a very high stiffness-to-mass ratio and outstanding internal damping for remarkable clarity, extended bass and a complete absence of unwanted resonances and distortions.
- Patented Overmolded Extreme Low-Density NLC™ Non-Limiting Corrugated TPE Surround*: Without the aid of three bass drivers like its larger sibling, we designed for every low mid and bass advantage in this model. The state-of-the-art thermoplastic elastomer is particularly effective at damping vibrations and unwanted resonances while the patented corrugated design audibly extends the cone's peak-to-peak excursion in this powerhouse little bookshelf model.
- Durable Nomex® Spiders were tooled for added depth … the restorative force is supremely accurate.
- Die-Cast Aluminum Heatsink Chassis with AVS™ Cooling: The die-cast chassis basket features our trademark AVS™ Airflow Ventilation System forced-air cooling to boost power handling, ensure ultra-low distortion and reliability. CNC- machining ensured a precision fit.
- Injection-Molded Electroplated Phase-Coherent Dust Caps: Critically shaped, the caps contribute to the exceptionally accurate phase response and wide dispersion of the series.
- Oversize Ceramic Magnet with Symmetrical Focused Field Geometry: Low distortion and exceptional linearity, even under extreme operating conditions.
- Advanced Motor Structure: High-temperature multi-layer copper voice coils with ventilated Apical™ formers provide tremendous accuracy, reliability and excellent linear response.
- Vented Soft-Iron Magnetic Pole Piece: FEA-optimized and tooled to support the extended cone excursion.
- Metal Top Plate: FEA-optimized and tooled to support the extended cone excursion.
*Patent #: US D654,479 S.
30th Anniversary Series Crossovers
Paradigm designs, engineers and manufactures drive units with ideal response characteristics. This allows for minimal crossover networks. While this 'simple' approach requires greater R&D time, it always produces speakers with superior sonic performance.
Anniversary Series crossovers are highly refined phase-coherent quasi-Butterworth designs, using only hand-selected close-tolerance components including:
- Polypropylene capacitors
- Precision high-power ceramic resistors
- Air-core and laminated silicon steel-core inductors
Drivers and crossovers are internally connected using superior heavy-gauge HPC™ High-Purity Copper wire. High-frequency and low-frequency crossover sections are physically separated to prevent any component inter action. Slopes and crossover points are selected for seamless driver integration, thereby preserving the complex timbral and spatial information of the original performance. Speaker inputs allow for bi-wiring or bi-amplifying using high-power gold-plated input.
Additional High-End Touches
A Paradigm exclusive! Baffle-less technology:
A butyl-rubber driver fastening system in which critically placed isolation inserts and gaskets decouple drivers from the speaker's enclosure. The result is an unparalleled reduction of driver/enclosure interactions and their associated resonances and vibrations.
Removable Low-Profile Grilles
Although designed to be played with their grilles on, Anniversary Series speakers will sound every bit as clean, clear and transparent when playing with their grilles off.
High-Velocity Low-Noise Aluminum Ports
Bass efficiency and minimum turbulence distortion for cleaner and more articulate bass response.
– Scott Bagby, CEO and Chairman of the Board, Paradigm Electronics Inc.
Pure Elegance!
30-inch Inspiration Stand
To complement the illustrious pedigree of this one-of-a-kind series, we designed an elegant stand. It features a stunning commemorative front trim piece (see photo). Some minor assembly required.
- Heavy-duty steel top plate;
- Weighted base and black painted center post with hidden cable channel in both post and base;
- Four elegant chromed disc feet with a protective rubber backing are designed to accept the adjustable locking spikes. Stable on carpet and hard surfaces, including ceramic and hardwood.
- Laser-etched chromed commemorative 30th Anniversary Series trim piece.
An all-new deep, rich, complex finish
Natural walnut. Of the finest quality. First, we hand sand to smooth perfection. Then we seal. We spray by hand with a custom polyurethane to render the perfect gloss level. Perfection achieved? Not yet. Hand sanding is required again, then the finish checked for imperfections under the most naked, unforgiving light. Additional sealing. Then we cure, a process that requires a minimum of two full days. We stain. Multiple layers of polyurethane … one, two, three, then a fourth coat with which we achieve a 90% gloss level. Why not 100%? 90% is the optimal level, a place where the striking depth and complexities of the wood grain are perfectly revealed without the visual distraction of a 100% reflective glare. Three more days of curing. The sanding starts again. Then we buff to a perfect gloss. From start to finish, one speaker requires a full day's labour, but the entire finishing process is closer to seven days for each speaker.
Dark Garnet Gloss — exotic, almost monochromatic, from a distance its red gemstone quality is alluring. The closer you get, the more the sensual interplay of light and shadow on the rich walnut wood grain will draw you in.

Here is a rough balance sheet. On the credit side: a booming economy (more than 5% a year growth), a free press, a meaningful bill of rights and an apparent lack of racial bitterness following their truth and reconciliation process. The transition from apartheid to democracy happened with astonishing ease and efficiency - and without the obsession for revenge that has blighted so many other countries in which a brutal regime has been overthrown.
On the debit side, there is still a lot of violent crime (though less than a few years ago), a good deal of financial corruption at all levels, a widening gap between rich and poor, a president who defends the policies of Robert Mugabe, and a raft of broken promises to the people that they would have better housing, education and jobs. Many black people are far better off since 1994, but I was struck by how little improvement there had been in the conditions under which most black people live. The shanty towns I used to know in Johannesburg and Cape Town are still there. On the motorway leading out of Cape Town international airport, they cannot be missed by the foreign tourists descending on one of the world's most attractive and vibrant holiday cities.
And then there is Aids. This dominates all serious conversations because it is the single most important factor affecting South Africa's future. All sorts of statistics are being bandied about; take your pick. All are horrible, barely believable. A survey last year discovered that people spent more time going to funerals of Aids victims than having their hair cut, shopping or having barbecues. More than one million children have become orphans as a result of their parents' death from Aids. The prevalence of HIV among pregnant women is nearly 30%. Three-quarters of adults who die between the ages of 25 and 49 do so from Aids. The ghastly figures go on and on.
That is bad enough. What made it infinitely worse was the astonishingly hostile attitude of President Mbeki to the distribution of antiretroviral drugs, and even to the concept of the link between HIV and Aids. (His minister of health insisted that garlic and beetroot was a more effective remedy than the drugs.) Mbeki finally seems to have accepted, albeit grudgingly, that antiretrovirals should be made widely available; but the programme to do so is stuttering and uneven. Whatever happens in the future, millions of South Africans may have died over the past few years because of their president's resistance to their treatment. The grief and misery is one thing. What, cynically, matters more is the loss to the economy of a generation - many among them future leaders and savants.
I accept, of course, that I travelled mostly in Johannesburg and around Cape Town. Tasting superb wine amid the extravagantly beautiful vineyards of Franschhoek is not necessarily the most comprehensive method of assessing the mood of the nation. But I felt, and encountered among those I spoke to, an optimism I had not come across before. The optimism I witnessed in 1994 was, inevitably, rose-spectacled. The formerly disenfranchised could hardly believe that they were voting, that they had become, at least legally and constitutionally, equal to their oppressors. It was impossible to conceive that President Mandela could do any wrong.
Now, the optimism is based on reality. Mbeki has been president for longer than Mandela was. He does not hold Mandela's cards of charm and persuasion; he has strange ideas. But that is all to the good. The saint that the people relied on has long gone. The people have come to realise what a tough world it is. And I feel very strongly that the people are up to the challenge.
What do politically sensitive writers, musicians and artists do when the main targets of their passion is removed? Alas, they usually produce lesser - or at least less provocative - work. It happened in the post- communism Soviet bloc, and now South Africa is suffering from post-apartheid creativity syndrome.
Take as an example Johannesburg's Market Theatre, which, during the apartheid years, had an international reputation as a courageous crucible for staging plays that challenged the system and displeased the government. The Island, by Athol Fugard, John Kani and Winston Ntshona, an allegory on the predicament of prisoners on Robben Island, was seen around the world. I'm not suggesting that no good plays are being produced, but inevitably, they cannot be as important or as dangerous as those that emerged from the dark years. The Market Theatre is still there, but it is no longer a beacon. Literature has suffered. The likes of Andre Brink and Nadine Gordimer are still writing beautifully, but they are no longer telling us things we didn't know, no longer testing our deepest ideals. And JM Coetzee has left South Africa altogether, for Australia, where his latest novel is set.
Music, too, has been touched by freedom. My pianistic hero Abdullah Ibrahim, formerly Dollar Brand (designated a "coloured" person from the Cape under the old system), composed some of the most original, haunting and disturbing jazz while in exile. When he returned to his free country, the essence of his music changed. I wouldn't quite say his works became jolly, but they certainly sounded more spring than autumn. A happy Ibrahim is just not as overwhelming a musician as a tormented one.
This week Marcel read Orhan Pamuk's Snow. "It fulfilled all the superlatives. I'm usually resistant to lengthy surreal allegories about countries about which I know little [Turkey]. This one grabbed me from the start." Marcel saw the paintings of Samuel Palmer at the British Museum. "Terrific draughtsmanship and shafts of light. But where's the soul?"

How to choose a Free Forex Robot?
A Free Forex Robot has the following features that make it a good choice amongst traders:
- 100% Automated trading software
- 83% Average Win Ratio
- Very simple to use
- No prior knowledge required
There are 2 versions of the Forex Robot: the free version and thePro version. A Free Forex Robot is a trimmed down version of the Pro that you probably will not need to get. In most cases, a paid version of an auto trading software can provide you with a good indication of the usefulness of the software. This version can inform you on whether or not the software has worth beyond attracting new signups for the company's affiliate marketing campaign.

The Pro version of this Forex Robot Software is compatible with almost all trading brokers. This should not be a reason for concern as every broker is different from the next, and it's difficult to make software that will work with multiple brokers. The trading platform offers 3 different trading styles: the Fibonacci, Martingale and the Classic. It also comes with five indicators: RSI, CCI, MACD, Stochastic and Williams % Ratio. It is possible to trade seven different pairs and have multiple trades or signals going simultaneously. On the other hand, a Free Robot offers only 2 pairs.
Does the Free Forex Robot work?
Yes. In order to trade on the Free Forex Robot, you will need to sign in to your Forex trading account and then push on auto trade. The software will thereafter analyze the stock market, calculate the live values of the indicator set, generate a trading signal and thereafter place it into your account automatically.
To succeed at using the Free Forex Robot, you will first need to acknowledge that it is a mere black box offering a bit of adjustability, but you pretty much remain at its mercy. The auto trading software utilizes five different indicators to obtain signals. You are able to choose one or multiple indicators at your discretion. If you use more than one, then they must both indicate a buy at the same time in order for your trade to be executed.
Pro Tip: Some Forex Robots are much better than the others. Make sure you choose the best one! We have reviewed more than 300 Forex Robots. Check out why we do not recommend them and their disadvantages:
Expiration periods are limited to the following short terms: 60 seconds; 5 minutes; 10 minutes; 15 minutes. All you have to do is select your asset from the seven that are available, set the amount to trade, choose the expiry, and thereafter the Free Forex Robot will do all the work on your behalf.
Learn More About Forex Robot Software
The Free Forex Robot also supports 3 different trading styles. The Classic offers simple trading, which only uses the same amount for every executed trade. The Martingale works in increasing the size of the trade with every loss, such that only a single win can allow you to break even, as well as enjoy a little profit. However, it should be noted that this is a popular strategy with gamblers and one that can very well wipe out your trading account within minutes. The Fibonacci trading style offers traders a combination of the first two trading styles. With this style of trading, you are able to increase the trade amount with a loss, but also decrease it with a win that derives its basis from the Fibonacci ratios.
How to Test Free Forex Robot?
There is a huge amount of Forex Robots on the market. Most of them are for sale and the price is between $79 and $3,999.
But there is simple and easy way to get free Forex robot + risk free trades, so you will be able to test the Robot without risking your money. Not many people are familiar with these tactics.

The species has a bifurcated crest comprised of elongated lateral crown feathers and shorter central ones. The crest morphology is unique to the genus Anairetes among the family Tyrannidae. The Pied-crested Tit-Tyrant has broad black and white streaks on the breast and back; the belly color ranges from white to very pale yellow. The species inhabits arid to semiarid scrub habitats across a broad elevational range: it occurs in coastal riparian thickets as well as Polylepis forest at 4000 m. The Pied-crested Tit-Tyrant actively moves through dense vegetation, foraging on small arthropods by perch-gleaning or hover-gleaning; the species rarely sallies to retrieve insects.
