Service dogs in Grants Pass are amazing. They have been extensively trained, live strict but loved lives, and take care of their owners like truly no one else can. The dogs' abilities to detect seizures, pick up dropped items, and even warn owners of impending stroke or heart attack make these dogs literally life savers.
With all the amazing things these animals can do, it's no wonder we have learned to accept them in places we usually wouldn't, like a restaurant or the office. But there is a growing cynicism towards service and support animals in general, and mostly because of misunderstanding, and I'll admit that I used to be one of these people.
I was not raised in a house with pets, and I never could understand the "emotional support animal". I could understand a seeing eye dog or a dog that assists with the hearing impaired, but these are obvious needs that a dog could help with. When I would see articles about an emotional support pig or bunny, I would roll my eyes.
The Best Emotional Support Service Animal letter in Grants Pass
There is controversy surrounding the roles of animals in the lives of people with disabilities or chronic illnesses. Many of us have seen the posts online about registering your animal as an emotional support animal with a small fee, and being able to keep your animal in a no pets allowed setting. This has led people to question the legitimacy of all service animals and their roles. A feeling of distrust among people who do not understand the difference between these animals, and the rights that accompany them, has been emerging as more people utilize these services.
Service Dogs are the most protected and trained of the 3 types of dogs. While many people refer to all 3 types as "service animals", the official names for this type is Service Dog. These dogs are legally considered medical equipment and have a price tag to match, ranging from $10,000- $50,000. They are intensively trained for 1.5-2.5 years, having to pass a variety of tests to be serviceable including, but not limited to, opening cupboards, retrieving dropped objects, staying calm in public, etc.
The last type we are discussing are Emotional Support Animals. This one is the most vague and open-ended. An Emotional Support Animal does not have to have any special training and most of the time is registered by its owner because it brings comfort. Also, an Emotional Support Animal does not have to be a dog. These animals are not protected under the ADA and cannot accompany their owners in establishments where there are no animals allowed. Owners with a registered support animals can keep them in housing that otherwise does not allow pets according to the Fair Housing Act.

Service Dogs Can Assist with Many Invisible Disabilities
Don't Pet Me
It is my pleasure to introduce one and all to Hunter the service dog. He has invited me to be his voice for several important messages that he would like to share with you. First, he would like to direct your focus to the message that he wears printed on his vest when he is on duty in public, "Please Don't Pet Me, I'm Working".
I am a dog lover and I fell in love with Hunter on sight. I would have loved to pet and hug him on the spot like I might do with other dogs. But, I can read and I knew right away that touching Hunter was off limits and I resisted engaging him in any way other than taking pictures of him with permission. Believe me, that has taken a little bit of discipline for me because I have spent hours on different occasions with Hunter on and off duty. Also, with Bob, his spokesperson and "Handler", and his wife Linda, who needs a service animal. After each arranged meeting or social visit, that warm place in my heart for Hunter the service dog has enlarged.
Interestingly, Bob, told me that it is usually adults that will try to pet Hunter. He said, "children seem to know better". I am guessing that school age children have been taught dog etiquette somewhere along the way to not pet Service Dogs. Or, it may be that we usually teach our children not to pet strange dogs. That is a lesson we all need to review, especially as it applies to all Service Dogs that are trained to help people with disabilities, illnesses, or other medical conditions that may or may not be visible to us, but a dog's keen sense knows.
A Service Dog's Vest
As Bob and I were talking in a parking lot, Hunter stayed alert to everything around while laying or sitting on the ground, as well as standing at Bob's side. I could tell that this dog took his job seriously and didn't want to be distracted from active duty.
I saw a lady approach and could tell right off that she truly wanted to engage and love on this black and white Springer Spaniel on duty. Oh, but she did see the message on the service dog's red vest and resisted the urge using proper etiquette. I knew exactly how she felt, and I suspect the dog sensed it, too.
We all need to remember that Service Dogs that are out in the public eye to aide people, are not there to socialize with us. They are providing essential services for the people that they serve. They are at work.
What Happened
You may be wondering how Hunter became a Service Dog. Well, you could say that he volunteered for service. When Hunter was only two years old, he took on the personal responsibility of looking after Linda, and of alerting her husband, Bob, if there were any concerns that needed attending to.
Bob brought their Springer Spaniel to a professional Service Dog trainer and Hunter went officially into training and service after passing an evaluation with flying colors. He is natural and is now 8 years old and has 6 years of service under his vest.
More Articles To Come
I am happy that I have been able to spend quality time getting to know Hunter the service dog on duty. I have been honored to get to know Hunter the family member in his home, along with Bob and Linda. The three of them together make a very loving family and their home a special place to visit.
I took this photo when I was able to join Bob, Linda and their service animal on a planned shopping trip to see the three of them in action together. What a joy it was!
Bob said, that he has had other Springer Spaniels, but that Hunter has stood out from all the rest. An exceptional dog does not come along every time, I know.
Hunter is ever at the ready at home to serve both Bob and Linda as the need for his special skills may arise. Many of the duties of a Service Dog actually do occur in the home. I notice Hunter keeping a watchful eye and checking in with both Bob and Linda. Alertness is a special trait that all service animals must possess.
When the vest comes off, Hunter is a different dog. He loves to be petted, and loves to play with toys, and entertain everyone who is around.
Hunter has some more important messages that he wants me to share by writing articles online. So! There will be more articles and photos to come in 2015 on HubPages. I could not be more delighted to be the voice of a service animal.
I think it must have been destiny for me to meet Hunter and his handler, Bob. I still distinctly remember how we met. I was at a Walmart and was heading for a door. I glanced to my left and saw this adorable black and white dog approaching me along with a man who seemed to have a contented smile on my face. I had my camera along and wanted to take a picture, but did not want to interact because of the message on the dogs vest. In my heart, I secretly made a wish to meet them.
I did not get my courage up and the moment seemed to be lost as I was greeted by an acquaintance. I thought, "Oh well", and visited for a few minutes before heading to the exit. What happened next seemed like a mini miracle.
As I stepped outside, the man with the dog was still there. I got brave and struck up a conversation with him that lasted at least a half hour or more. All that time, I noticed that Hunter only sniffed the air in my direction to check me out and made eye contact. That was it for interacting with me. He had his vest on and he seemed to be very proudly on duty. Bob allowed me to take some pictures and said I could use them online to tell their story and, more importantly, get some important messages out about how we all need to learn about appropriate etiquette when we see these dedicated workers on duty in public.
Service Dogs Need To Be Alert
Anything we do to distract a service dog while on duty, could prevent them from doing the tasks they are trained to do, to assist their people. It only takes one split-second for accidents to occur, and lives could possibly be in harm's way.
Why we should not pet service dogs on duty.
- They are watching.
- They are smelling.
- They are listening.
- They are sensing.
- They are thinking.
- They are ready for service.
A Socially Interactive Dog
I have mentioned that I have never engaged Hunter in any way when I have met him in public. It is important to note that Hunter does not engage me when he has his vest on. There just seems to be a formality about him and it is obvious that he takes his job very seriously. He knows I am there, but does not interact with me other than a quick sniff of the air and a glance in my direction.
On the other hand, Hunter is socially interactive at home. First, he alerts Bob and Linda that someone has arrived in the yard as he looks out a window and then heads to the door. He greets and interacts with guests in an appropriate and friendly manner. He is a very good host that makes visitors that he knows feel welcome.
In the video above the lady talks about reaching her hand out when someone tries to pet her service dog, they instead end up petting the back of her hand. Also, she has taught her dog the comment word "ignore". She will tell her dog to ignore, and keep repeating "good, ignore" and give her dog treats for obeying the command. Finally, people get the idea and stop petting.
Assistance Dogs
Hunter is in training to assist Linda, who has disabilities and challenges related to having had a stroke several years ago. He is also in training to assist Bob, who has hearing loss. I think that is like doing double duty.
There are basically three different types of assistance dogs. You can read educational articles about them on Wikipedia from the links below.
- Guide dogs
- Hearing dogs
- Service dogs: "Service animals are defined as dogs that are individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities. Examples of such work or tasks include guiding people who are blind, alerting people who are deaf, pulling a wheelchair, alerting and protecting a person who is having a seizure, reminding a person with mental illness to take prescribed medications, calming a person with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) during an anxiety attack, or performing other duties. Service animals are working animals, not pets. The work or task a dog has been trained to provide must be directly related to the person's disability. Dogs whose sole function is to provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as service animals under the ADA."
Start Seeing Service Dogs
This is another message the public needs to know, because they need to know the law.
The Call
Bob called: Linda stepped into eternity at 1:00 a.m. on September 19th, 2015. She was at home at her request, under the loving care of Bob and Hunter. The doctor at the hospital had asked her what she wanted to do on the previous Wednesday and she chose going home. The doctor did not think she would make it there, but arrangements were quickly made for a hospital bed, oxygen and care.
On Friday, Bob asked for a kiss and she puckered up, he asked for a second kiss and she puckered up again. When he asked for another one, she said, "Don't push it.", those were her last words. It was something that seemed to really bless Bob, probably a history on those words.
Quick Aspects About Applying for an ESA Certificate
Puppies and adult dogs are ideal pets. You must understand that pet ownership requires a great deal of time and effort to ensure the animals receive proper care and attention. In addition, there are certain facts you should consider before you pick a puppy or adult dog up from the Humane Society or other type of pet-adoption center. We provide you with a list below of these facts so you can select a dog in an intelligent manner.
Selecting a Dog That Is Right for Your Lifestyle
A puppy or adult dog should fit into your existing lifestyle in the proper manner for you to enjoy it fully. For example, if you live an inactive lifestyle, you do not need a dog that requires an excessive amount of exercise to keep its energy to a livable level. On the other hand, if you are highly active, you need a dog that can keep up with you. Consult a dog breed selector to assist you in your search for the ideal breed for your lifestyle. By answering a few pertinent questions, the selector is able to provide you the dogs that best fit your lifestyle, including which ones are ideal for children.
Cost of Dog Food and Treats
You should price the cost of dog food and dog treats for the size of the dog that you wish to adopt. Where small dogs only eat a few dollars worth of food and treats a week, a large dog will place a severe dent in your finances weekly as far as food and treats are concerned. In addition, check with a veterinarian to learn which brands of food are the best today. The recommendation changes occasionally. A veterinarian also will advise you on what are healthy dog treats and the treats that may cause your puppy or dog problems.
Learn How to Prevent Fleas
You should learn how to prevent fleas from infesting your puppy or adult dog before you adopt one. Otherwise, the fleas will be a problem quickly. A number of different options are available for flea control from oral medications to topical applications for your puppy or adult dog. Consult a veterinarian as to which is suitable for your age group of dog. In addition, frequent vacuuming of the house and a safe insecticide on the yard also will be helpful to prevent or control the flea problem.
Inquire About Dog Insurance
Since dog owners throughout the United States spend millions, possibly billions of dollars each year on veterinarian bills, you may wish to inquire about dog insurance. Actually, this insurance will cover additional types of pets besides just dogs and commonly is known as pet insurance. It will help reduce the amount of your out-of-pocket expense for medical attention for injuries and other health issues that can occur with your puppy or adult dog.
Dog Ownership Is a Long-Term Responsibility
Along with the other information here, you must consider that dog ownership is a long-term responsibility since the majority of dogs live 12 or more years. For this reason, you must commit to take care of your puppy or adult dog properly for as long as it is alive to ensure that it is healthy. Proper care includes feeding and exercising the dog daily, and grooming it at least once a week if not more often depending on the length of its hair. On top of all this, you should take the dog to the veterinarian for regular checkups and necessary vaccinations along with emergency attention.
Keep all these considerations in mind as you select the perfect puppy or adult dog to adopt for a pet. Dogs are such social creatures that they will appreciate your companionship as much as you enjoy theirs.

|Oliver Larsen Peterson Diaries (1895-1951), Box 5
|This is Box 5 of a 6-box collection of diaries written over the course of 56 years (1895-1951) by a farmer in Petersboro, Utah. Box 5 covers the period 1941-1946 and is organized into 7 folders: Folder 1: Vol. 27, 1941 (bound vol. 5.5 x 8.25 inches) Folder 2: Vol. 28, 1942 (bound vol. 7.75 x 5.5 inches) Folder 3: Vol. 29, 1943 (bound vol. 8 x 10 inches) Folder 4: Vol. 29, 1943 (loose pages 8 x 10 inches) Folder 5: Vol. 30, 1944 (bound vol. 9 x 6.25 inches) Folder 6: Vol. 31, 1945 (bound vol. 9 x 6.25 inches) Folder 7: Vol. 32, 1946 (bound vol. 9 x 6.25 inches)
|Oliver Larsen Peterson was born in Logan, Utah in 1879 to Mary and Peter Peterson. Oliver, or O. L. as he was known, and his twin brother Edward were the first two of seven children. Shortly after birth of the twins, the family moved from Logan to their dry farm in Petersboro, Utah. Established by their father between 1875 and 1878, this was a large dry farm and cattle ranch located on the west side of Cache Valley directly north of Mendon, Utah. Here O. L., an astute observer as his diaries attest, spent his life as a rancher and farmer. On October 2, 1913 O. L. married Navieve Haws of Logan and they later had eight children. O. L. Peterson died April 7, 1955. O. L. kept a daily diary from 1895-1951. Due to Peterson's discerning eye for detail, his journal entries are voluminous. The diaries comprehensively describe the changes in a turn-of-the-century dry farming operation in Cache Valley. Peterson not only throughly described the daily farm routine, but also the seasonal occurrences of plowing, planting, harvesting, and winter livestock care. He concluded each year's entries with an inventory of equipment, livestock, and the amount of feed stored for winter. For example, in the 1903 volume (Box 1, Folder 10) he listed all of the farm machinery along with purchase dates and costs. The same volume also inventories the livestock, going as far as stating the names and weights of the horses. Box 1 Folder 1 contains a 'daybook', which spans the period of 1895 to 1915 and presents an overview of Peterson's thoughts and labor. In addition to describing farm operations, Peterson mentioned important social and political events, but without any comment about his feelings toward those events. He recorded weather conditions, natural occurrences such as earthquakes, and local flora and fauna. As well, he described the physical geography of the Petersboro-Benson area both before and after the building of the Cutler Dam, noting the dam's effects on area drainage.

What can be expected of gold prices in May, 2015?
Last month's statistics show that European gold investors lost 4.2% of their investments. But, what can they expect of the investments during May? Will the price of gold in euro grow this month?
In 2010, the yellow metal showed positive dynamics during May and brought investors high returns. This year the situation has strong potential to repeat itself. As soon as the new gold fixing system was launched, the information became more transparent and gold prices became more stable before a sharp increase. However, April showed the most negative data since this new system came into force, and investors suffered losses of 4.2%.
Nevertheless, the profitability of gold this year remains at the level of 6%.
It is worth looking back and remember how the situation has been changing during the last years. The movements of gold prices during the months of May have encouraged investors not to regret about their prior investments as the statistics show the following results:
Best trend in May since 1970:
1972: +19.3 %
1973: + 23.64 %
1978: +8.47 %
1979: +12.59 %
2010: +10.96 %
Worst trends in May since 1970:
1974: -5.37%
1982: -10.68 %
1985: -3.47%
1998: -6.15 %
1999: -4.92%
In general it can be seen that the average of gold prices in May had a growing trend and the future dynamics of growth was more noticeable than the indicators of fall in value.
In more than 55% of cases, the price of gold in May grew. Therefore, investors who are aware of these facts in advance see no risk in investing their capital when there is such an opportunity to receive returns.
In May, 2015 those who own gold reserves have every chance to boost their income passively. The clients of the Emgoldex online store receive high and stable income with gold, at the most profitable prices regardless of the trend in gold prices in the market.
How it works so well for them? They recommend the product of online store and help more people reach financial independence with the most cutting edge business model. They follow topical news and events which appear on the official website of the Emgoldex company to make the best decisions!
Share this news in your social networks and hurry to receive the best income with gold in May, 2015!

What is Energy Assurance?
Energy Assurance is about becoming more resilient to interruptions to your energy supplies during an emergency.
Energy Assurance ensures that key assets within the community are able to function, protecting the public and minimizing economic loss, after all types of disaster events.
What is CaLEAP?
CaLEAP (California Local Energy Assurance Planning) is a California Energy Commission (CEC) sponsored project to assist local governments throughout the State in preparing plans to ensure that key assets are resilient to disaster events that impact energy.
The process considers all aspects of Emergency Management (prepare for, respond to, recover from, mitigate against).
Purpose of the website
This website was created to provide CaLEAP information, present Energy Assurance material and assist local governments in beginning the Energy Assurance Planning process (see Getting Started below).
This section will help you understand the Energy Assurance Planning (EAP) process, demonstrate how the CaLEAP project supports EAP, and identify who to contact to help you move forward.
This section will provide you with an update on the tools and materials that will help you develop your EAP.
CaLEAP conducted two Energy Strategy workshops for local governments for the purpose to identify energy technologies and strategies best matched to critical facilities and assets, which enable them to become more resilient to energy disruptions. Slides and recordings from these workshops are at this link.
The CaLEAP program has released the CaLEAP methodology and the web-based tool.
This section will provide you with links to resources, news and events that are energy related but not sponsored by this project.
Sponsored by the California Energy Commission through the U.S. Department of Energy

Will Face Tough Opposition
NEW HAVEN, Conn.—The Yale women's fencing team will travel to Philadelphia this weekend to compete at the Feb. 23 US Collegiate Squad Championships.
Hosted by Penn, the meet will bring together some of the strongest teams on the collegiate circuit for a day of squad competition. Although Yale did not compete at last year's US Collegiate Squad Championships, two years ago the Bulldogs finished in eighth. At that tournament, the epee squad closed in eighth place, the foil team claimed ninth place and the sabre weapon squad finished 13th.
Boston College, Brandeis, Fairleigh Dickinson, Haverford, North Carolina, NYU, Ohio State, Penn, Princeton, Stevens, Temple and Vassar will be competing in this year's competition alongside Yale.
The Bulldogs enter the tournament after a tough seventh-place finish at the Feb. 8-9 Ivy League Championship, which Princeton won for the fifth year in a row. Performance at the Ivy League Championship, as well as throughout the regular season, will determine which fencers advance to the NCAA Northeast Regional, which will take place on Mar. 9 in Wellesley, Mass.
Bouts at the US Collegiate Squad Championships will begin at 9 a.m. and run through 6:30 p.m.

MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. – Junior pitcher Spencer Thomas (Loganville, Ga.) of the No. 24 Georgia College baseball team (35-17) was named Bobcat Athlete of the Week for the week ending May 18. This marks the first such honor for Thomas and the fifth for the Bobcat baseball program this season.
Thomas tossed a shutout in last week's NCAA Southeast Region Tournament opener against No. 3 University of Mount Olive. He scattered nine hits and just two walks while throwing 129 pitches in the gem, improving the pitcher to an 8-0 record. Thomas fanned two, but none before the eighth inning.
The Bobcats went 35-17 in 2014, a record-setting year for the offense, coming into the NCAA Tournament as the top team in Division II baseball in both on-base percentage and runs per game. Georgia College reached as high as No. 6 in the Collegiate Baseball Newspaper National Rankings, and put catcher Steve Hazel (Kentwood, Mich.), first baseman Clay Ardeeser (Loganville, Ga.) and designated hitter Taylor Hinshaw (Winder, Ga.) on the varied all-region teams. The NCAA Regional Appearance was the 11th in program history, and the fourth in head coach Tom Carty's seven seasons.
The Georgia College Department of Athletics, two-time winners of the PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 11 varsity athletic programs at the NCAA Division II level. As a Division II program, Bobcat Athletics prides itself on balancing the life of the student-athlete, evidenced by the teams' multiple appearances in post-season competition as well as documented academic success and community-service involvement.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. - Yale hosted Penn and Princeton for the annual tri-meet on the DeWitt-Cuyler track Saturday afternoon. On a rainy day, the Bulldogs finished third, behind the first-place Tigers and second-place Quakers.
Sophomore Kate Grace won the 400-meter dash for the Bulldogs in 57.03 seconds, which is less than a second over ECAC qualifying standards.
Senior captain Jennifer Lin ran the 400-meter hurdles in 1:04.56 for a strong first-place finish.
Yale did not compete in every event and some of the athletes who competed Friday at the biennial Yale-Harvard vs. Oxford-Cambridge meet did not compete again on Saturday.
Next Saturday the Bulldogs will travel to Cambridge, Mass., for the annual Harvard-Yale dual meet.

Yahoo! fixes! password! leak! vulnerability!
Urges users to change their logins
Yahoo! has fixed the flaw that allowed hackers to scrape the unencrypted passwords of over 450,000 of its customers' accounts.
"We have taken swift action and have now fixed this vulnerability, deployed additional security measures for affected Yahoo! users, enhanced our underlying security controls and are in the process of notifying affected users," Yahoo! said in a statement. "In addition, we will continue to take significant measures to protect our users and their data."
The company said the information that was published by members of the hacking group D33Ds Company stemmed from users who had signed up with the Associated Content site before Yahoo! bought it 2010.
If these users try and log into their Yahoo! accounts now they will be asked a series of authentication questions before having to change their data, and Yahoo! is also suggesting other users get into the habit of changing their passwords regularly.
The D33Ds Company hackers claimed that they broke into the corporate database via a simple SQL injection attack, and Yahoo! says that hole is now fixed and additional security procedures have been implemented. One would hope that includes adding password encryption to avoid a similarly embarrassing situation in the future. ®

An unwelcome burden
When Kansas Department of Transportation floated the idea Monday of Marion County taking over state highways into Marion, Goessel, and Lehigh, the county commissioners were rightly skeptical. The county has its hands full maintaining the blacktop roads it already has. Why would it want to add almost six miles more?
KDOT's initial suggestion was paying $200,000 per mile of road to the county in return for taking charge of these highways. For the simple roadways without any bridges, that would take care of maintenance for a little while, but chip sealing roads is expensive, and overlays are prohibitively expensive on the county's budget.
Plus, drivers would be negatively impacted by the change in who maintains the roads. Marion County doesn't generally salt roadways to deal with snow and ice; it simply plows them. I don't think most drivers would like to see that change in maintenance.
Where the idea of taking over these roads really falls apart as a good idea for the county, though, is K-256 west of Marion. In about one mile, K-256 crosses the Cottonwood River twice. There is no way Marion County can afford to add two large bridges to its inventory. The county would have to put any money it received from KDOT away in a fund to pay for the eventual replacement of those bridges, and it would have to increase taxes so it could put away additional money every single year. Road and Bridge Superintendent Randy Crawford said replacing even one of those bridges would cost millions of dollars.
The quarter mile of K-215 into Goessel wouldn't be a terrible burden, but it would be more suitable as a city street than a county road. Likewise, K-168 into Lehigh wouldn't be unbearably expensive for the county to keep up; and it makes a little more sense as a county road than K-215 does.
Even taking on K-256 from Marion east to U.S. 77 wouldn't be terrible, although it would certainly be doing the state a favor. I'm not sure if the state has given the county much reason in recent years to do it any favors, but maybe the commission is more interested in being charitable to the state than I am.
But taking over K-256 from the west edge of Marion to U.S. 56 would be tremendously foolhardy. Under no circumstances should the county commission consider, even for a moment, taking responsibility for two large bridges.
If the county does accept the other sections of highway KDOT wants to unload, it should still negotiate for something more important than money. Marion County should try to get a highway-quality road built into Pilsen for all the tourists and pilgrims interested in learning about Marion County's candidate for sainthood. I don't think the full length of Remington Road from U.S. 56 to 290th Road would be feasible to get out of the state, but what about from 290th to the south end of Pilsen? It wouldn't be as direct of a route for visitors coming from the south, but it would be worth the few extra miles to take blacktop the whole way.
Eventually the county needs to pave from Pilsen south to U.S. 56, but it needs to get some kind of good blacktop into Pilsen immediately. KDOT really wants to unload highway miles. Now is the county's opportunity to play hardball.

For Women's Center for Leadership (WCL), we are, at our core, all about community. Our mission is about our members.
WCL is a consortium of professional women joined in developing leadership skills, sharing knowledge and building community in the Pacific Northwest.
I've been a member of WCL for about 10 years. My participation has evolved: from sporadically catching a monthly breakfast event at first, then attending more regularly as my daughter got older and could do more to get herself ready for school, and ultimately joining the WCL Board of Directors. I think many of our members have times when they are active, and times when they have to check out for a while to attend to other things. Many just do their best to stay in touch, even if it's only reading the email updates and checking out a blog or two. Having to make tradeoffs like this is just part of the reality for a lot of professional women.

Hal Leonard Student Piano Library
(Book 1)Barbara Kreader, Fred Kern, Phillip Keveren & Mona Rejino - Hal Leonard Corporation
Click to review
When music excites our interest and imagination, we eagerly put our hearts into learning it. The music in the Hal Leonard Student Piano Library encourages practice, progress, confidence, and best of all - success! From the very first lessons in Book 1, students are making their own music as they explore the piano keyboard through fun improvisation pieces called My Own Song. The beginning of the method introduces finger numbers, the black-key and white key groups, and basic rhythmic patterns. Directional reading is taught first by finger number, then by note name, and then by interval (step, skip, and repeat). Once students are introduced to the staff, they learn reading guides bass F and treble G and read by interval in several different hand positions. Supplemental books correlate page-by-page with the respective lesson book. Much of the Hal Leonard Student Piano Library features pieces and songs that are recognizable including popular, traditional, patriotic and movie themes. Their settings are tasteful and include exceptional teaching accompaniments. Instrumental accompaniments for every piece are available on CD and General MIDI disk.

Ensure your email privacy and security
Email Security - More Info
Email Security
Did you know that when you send your email messages, they do not go directly to recipient mailboxes? Did you know that your Internet Service Provider (ISP) stores copies of all your email messages on its mail servers before it tries to deliver them? Do you know that someday all the information kept on the servers can be easily used against you? Email Security is a system-tray local SMTP server program for Windows that lets you send email messages directly from your PC to recipient mailboxes ensuring your email security and privacy by means of bypassing your ISP's mail servers where your relevant information can be stored and viewed. Did you also know that when you send an email message to a list of email addresses, the respondents can see each other in the email message header? You think it is secure? While sending, Email Security always breaks email messages addressed to a group of people to individual messages to ensure your security and security of your respondents. Also, Email Security does not leave any traces on your PC because it just gets your email messages from your email client and puts them in the recipient mailboxes at the same time without making any temporary files on your PC. Email Security supports all email programs like Outlook Express, Outlook, Eudora, etc. The email program you already use for sending and receiving messages can be connected to Email Security in a very easy way - just by using the word localhost instead of your current SMTP host. Having done so, you can send messages in a usual manner. Install Email Security on your PC before it is too late!

Actress Melissa Joan Hart dumped Jerry O'Connell for the rocker who was to become her husband.
The former "Sabrina the Teenage Witch" star recalls meeting Mark Wilkerson while she was casually dating fellow child actor O'Connell, and when O'Connell started flirting with other girls at a Kentucky Derby party, she decided the rocker was the man for her.
She tells "Access Hollywood Live," "Jerry and I had gone to high school and college together and he ignored me, and then we were at the Derby and he's giving me all this attention and I was just newly single and I had planned I wasn't gonna meet anyone at the Derby and we started hanging out… and then I met my husband Mark.
"The next morning at the Derby races with a massive hangover, Jerry is hitting on someone else and I was like, 'Oh, I see how this is gonna be'. And then Jerry said to me, 'When we get back to L.A., are we gonna hang out?' and I said, 'I don't think so, I think I've met the man I'm gonna marry'. I had just fallen for Mark so hard, so quickly.
"I called Mark and now 10-and-a-half years later…"

To help your lawn make it through hot and dry times, postpone cutting as much as possible. When you do cut, set your deck on the highest level. The taller grass will shade its root structure. Grass is similar to trees in that the taller the tree/blade the deeper the roots. Deeper roots can reach deeper moisture and better tolerate a drought. A side affect of mowing at a higher level is lengthened mower life. You are less likely to hit rocks and roots when mowing at a higher level. Further, your blades stay out of any sand, reducing wear.

Jason Kilar's Epitaph As Hulu CEO: He Made It Work
The quickest way to set off at least one media exec I know is to praise Jason Kilar for making Hulu work. I can almost set a timer for the refrain. Look at what he had to work with — content from equity partners NBC Universal & Fox , eventually joined by Disney, plus many other key content and distribution deals done before he entered the picture.
Fair enough. Amazon vet Kilar, who announced his long-anticipated departure as CEO of the video portal today, had a lot to work with when he was hired in the summer of 2007 to make sure NewCo, known as ClownCo in media circles, didn't fall flat. The launch valuation of $1 billion, cemented by a $100 investment from Providence Equity Partners, preceded him too. He had top-level champions who wanted to see Hulu work in News Corp. COO Peter Chernin and NBCU CEO Jeff Zucker, and other key execs at the founding partners who were committed enough to overcome those who weren't. (You can't overestimate the value of knowing that the CEO had to come from outside their companies and from a different perspective for the joint venture to have a prayer.) And there are a lot of ways you can gauge his success or failure; he looks better by some measures than others.
But by one very important measure, Kilar did a lot right. Unlike a lot of other bright media ideas (and plenty that weren't so bright), particularly those requiring cooperation across usually competitive companies, Hulu launched and grew. It avoided the tech meltdowns that could blunt consumer interest, starting with a highly usable player. Kilar drove some distribution partners crazy and precluded deals with others by insisting on that proprietary video player. He also angered some consumers, particularly cord cutters, by keeping tight controls on the way Hulu was delivered.
As a private beta user turned Hulu Plus subscriber, I've seen my share of glitches but from the start it simply worked without the level of frustration I've felt with so many other media products. (Amazon Unbox, anyone?) A lot of people contributed to that but Kilar's often single-minded insistence on the best user experience possible, including pushing back the public launch by months, was at the core. That sounds like such a basic, common-sense thing — but technology, common sense and television network all too often are words that don't belong in the same sentence.
Bad user experience can tank a startup but, as is the case with access to top content, a good one is no guarantee of success. It takes more than content and usability to build a 600+ person company with nearly $700 million in revenues last year, high-profile placement across devices and platforms, and a growing paid subscription base. In his blog post announcing plans to leave this quarter, Kilar said Hulu added a record 200,000 subscribers in the past seven days; he claimed more than 3 million Hulu Plus subs in his Dec. 17 year-end report.
Kilar leaves with some lovely parting prizes, including a reported $40 million buyout of his equity following the partners' decision to stay in the video portal business for now, and a high ranking in the media-tech CEO candidate pool. My educated guess is that he will take a family break before a next public step.
As for Hulu, the choice Disney and News Corp. make for a successor (Comcast NBCU is still on the post-merger sidelines) should say a lot about the video JV's post-Kilar direction. Think money, not product.

MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. – Junior forward Abby Dalton (Macon, Ga.) grabs the Bobcat Athlete of the Week honors for her work on the soccer field, helping her Georgia College soccer team to their first Peach Belt Conference (PBC) Championship appearance in school history this past weekend. Dalton and the Bobcats took runner-up against Clayton State University Sunday, Nov. 10.
The junior forward pushed Georgia College to the PBC Tournament semifinals with her late goal over Armstrong Atlantic State University. Her goal with just over two minutes left put the Bobcats in the PBC Semifinals for the third time in school history. Dalton and the Bobcats handed Armstrong their first home loss since 2008.
Adding to the Athlete of The Week award, Dalton also was named to the All-PBC Second team last week, her first all-conference honor. She was rewarded with her efforts in the PBC Tournament over the weekend with an All-Tournament Team award.
Dalton's junior campaign will be a memorable one for the forward, where she became the all-time career assists leader for the Bobcats. She broke the record Oct. 26 against the University of Montevallo. Dalton finished the season with four goals and eight assists, leading Georgia College in assists for the year.
The Georgia College Department of Athletics, two-time winners of the PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 11 varsity athletic programs at the NCAA Division II level. As a Division II program, Bobcat Athletics prides itself on balancing the life of the student-athlete, evidenced by the teams' multiple appearances in post-season competition as well as documented academic success and community-service involvement. Sign up at @GCBobcats on Twitter and Facebook for up-to-the-minute reports, and visit www.GCBobcats.com for more information, and to nominate your favorite former Bobcats and Colonials to the GC Athletics Hall of Fame.

Matt Dunne for Lt. Governor
In the race for lieutenant governor, Vermonters have the opportunity to choose a candidate who would bring an extraordinary amount of energy, intelligence and enthusiasm to the state's number two job. That candidate is Democrat Matt Dunne.Dunne's background as a public servant is stellar. First elected to the Vermont Legislature as a representative of Hartland and West Windsor at the age of 22, Dunne spent the next four terms in the House and was elected Assistant Majority Leader in 1998, making him the youngest whip in the nation at the time. Along with other leadership roles in the House, he served as vice-chair of the Transportation Committee. During his time in the House, Dunne was a marketing executive in various capacities, including as the marketing director for Logic Associates, a top 500 software company based in Wilder that served the commercial printing industry worldwide.Following his House stint, Dunne took a break from politics and served two and a half years as the National Director of AmeriCorpsVISTA (Volunteers in Service to America). Serving under Democratic and Republican administrations, Dunne oversaw approximately 6,000 AmeriCorpsVISTA members whose primary task is to assist Americans in poverty and help them learn how to succeed. During his brief time there, Dunne launched an Entrepreneur Corps, which sends VISTA members into low-income neighborhoods to help residents save money, purchase homes and start businesses — just the kind of progressive thinking this state and nation need.Throughout his career as a small business owner, marketing executive, college administrator, legislator and AmeriCorpsVISTA director, Dunne has used his broad-range of experiences to effectively solve problems, push for innovative solutions, and think ahead in ways to benefit the state's future economic growth. As a young representative, for example, he wrote legislation to encourage the reclamation and redevelopment of industrial brownfields. He also drafted legislation providing tax incentives, transportation dollars and regulatory changes to encourage investment in downtowns, and he founded the Vermont Film Commission to encourage motion picture producers and directors to make movies in Vermont — bringing a potentially important source of revenue to Vermont communities. In the Senate, Dunne has continued his push for economic development efforts, including creating legislation to provide grants to bring broadband to rural areas, drafting regulations to encourage foreign companies to locate in Vermont, and starting a seed capital fund to support home grown start up companies.A lifelong resident of Hartland, he lives on the small farm where he grew up and has an inherent understanding of the challenges facing Vermont's farmers. In the legislature, he has been a champion of efforts to support young farmers, has helped draft legislation to exempt farm buildings from current use, and has been a promoter of Vermont agricultural products nationwide. A graduate of Hanover High School and Brown University with honors in Public Policy, Dunne has also received national honors from the American Legion for work on veterans issues. He lives with his wife, Sarah Stewart Taylor, and their one-year-old son, Judson.On the issues, Dunne's approach has been to seek consensus where possible and push for reform and innovative thinking when needed. He supports a strong public-school system, women's rights, legislation that protects and maintains Vermont's environmental ethic, and economic development policies that will ensure Vermont positions itself to reap the benefits of the new economy. He says Vermont is at a crossroads between economic growth and becoming a theme park for tourists and second-home owners, and he wants to be sure the state is primed for economic growth.Incumbent Lt. Gov. Brian Dubie couldn't be a nicer guy, but his effectiveness has been limited by his part-time approach to the job (as have most other lieutenant governors before him) and his lack of legislative experience. To accomplish economic goals and help position the state to benefit from future growth, leaders need not only good intentions but also the time, energy, commitment and experience to draft appropriate legislation to achieve the stated objectives. Dubie has never pretended to be a political leader, nor has he show any deftness in drafting public policy. Dunne, on the other hand, has put his experience to work moving Vermont into the next economy. For the breadth of his background, his unparalleled public service, his overall stand on the issues facing the state, and his economic vision for the state, we enthusiastically endorse Matt Dunne for lieutenant governor.Angelo S. Lynn

Cancer Screening
Screening tests detect cancer's hidden warning signs long before symptoms appear and when the disease is most treatable. Understand your screening needs and complete the cancer screening and prevention questionnaire to manage your cancer risk.
Risk Factors
Kidney cancer develops most often in people over the age of 60, but no one knows the exact cause of this disease. Research has shown that people with certain risk factors are more likely than others to develop kidney cancer. Studies have found the following risk factors for kidney cancer:
- Smoking: Cigarette smoking is a major risk factor. Cigarette smokers are twice as likely as nonsmokers to develop kidney cancer. Cigar smoking also may increase the risk of this disease.
- Obesity: People who are obese have an increased risk of kidney cancer.
- High blood pressure: High blood pressure increases the risk of kidney cancer.
- Long-term dialysis: Dialysis is a treatment for people whose kidneys do not work well. It removes wastes from the blood. Being on dialysis for many years is a risk factor for kidney cancer.
- Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome: VHL is a rare disease that runs in some families. It is caused by changes in the VHL gene. An abnormal VHL gene increases the risk of kidney cancer. It also can cause cysts or tumors in the eyes, brain, and other parts of the body. Family members of those with this syndrome can have a test to check for the abnormal VHL gene. For people with the abnormal VHL gene, doctors may suggest ways to improve the detection of kidney cancer and other diseases before symptoms develop.
- Family History: Those with a strong family history of renal cell cancer are 2 to 4 times more likely to develop the disease. The risk is highest in brothers or sisters of those who have the cancer.
- Occupation: Some people have a higher risk of getting kidney cancer because they come in contact with certain chemicals or substances in their workplace. Coke oven workers in the iron and steel industry are at risk. Workers exposed to asbestos or cadmium also may be at risk.
- Gender: Males are more likely than females to be diagnosed with kidney cancer. Each year in the United States, about 40,000 men and 20,000 women learn they have kidney cancer.
High Risk/Early Detection
A patient is considered high risk for kidney cancer if they:
- Have an inherited condition, such as VHL
- Have a sibling or other close relative was diagnosed with the disease
- Have been on dialysis for an extended period
If you are considered high risk, your doctor may recommend careful observation, a CT scan and an MRI to ensure kidney cancer is detected early.
Currently, there are no recommended screening tests for kidney cancer in those people who are not at increased risk. Regular checkups and an open dialogue with your physician about changes in your own physical condition are the best ways to ensure early detection.
