There's a lone open bottle of olives in your fridge. You've used a third of it in a pizza, a small bunch in a salad, and you're wondering for how long you can refrigerate the rest. It's not like you use olives every day, so knowing precisely for how long you can keep them before they go bad is essential.
The good news is, no matter if we're talking about green or black olives, stuffed, pitted, or whole, the storage guidelines, and spoilage indication are pretty much the same. The bad news is, it's difficult to say what's the shelf life of an open bottle of olives. But first things first.
Can Olives Go Bad? How To Tell They Are Bad?
I'm pretty sure you know that olives can go off, and there are a couple of ways that can happen.
When it comes to an unopened bottle or jar, if the lid is popped instead of flat, that's a sure sign something went wrong. Examine the olives carefully before eating, or discard them for safety reasons. Both choices are fine.
Once you open up the container, examine its contents as you do with all food. That means checking how it looks, smells, and tastes.
For starters, look for visual indication of spoilage, like mold. If there are some while floaties on the surface of the brine, you can remove them and eat the olives just fine ([MZ]). I won't blame you if you throw out the olives when you see mold, though. If it's a brine-free package, mold means the olives are done for.
Second, give it a good whiff to check if the brine smells fresh or not. I once had a jar of olives that (for some reason) went off after a couple of days in the fridge, and the smell was disgusting. Even if those olives were still edible, all I wanted to do was to get rid of it. In short, if it smells bad, discard it.
Last but not least, the texture and taste. If both smell and visuals are okay, time to give those little guys a taste. In case there's something off with the flavor, throw them out. If the taste is okay, they are most likely perfectly safe to eat. Please note that olives over time can lose some of their texture, and if that happens, they work better in cooked dishes than in salads.
Pay special attention to all the described factors if it's a liquid-free package, as those don't last as long and quickly go bad if the packaging has a tiny hole.
Generally, checking whether olives are spoiled or not is rather intuitive. Let's talk about shelf life, which definitely isn't as straightforward.
How Long Do Olives Last?
When it comes to shelf life, there's not much difference between different cultivars (like Kalamata or Manzanilla) and varieties of olives. For an unopened package, go with the best-by date on the label. For most types of olives, their shelf life is between a year or two. That's already included in that date. Of course, chances are the olive's fruit will stay just fine for a couple of weeks or even months past that date.
Once you open the package, abide by the storage time indicated on the label. The label of olives I usually buy says I should finish the jar within a week. Other brands typically ask you to use the fruits within a week to maybe ten days ([CA]). If it's a liquid-free package (that is, the olives aren't submerged in brine, vinegar, or oil), they usually keep quality between 3 and 5 days of opening.
That's it for the straightforward part. I'm sure you've heard of people who store open jars of olives for months on end, and the olives stay perfectly fine. Some brands, like Mezzetta, say that their olives should last a year after opening ([MZ]). How does that work?
I don't have all the answers, but I can make an educated guess. First off, some brines are saltier than others, and stronger brines are less likely to spoil. Second is food hygiene. If you always use clean utensils to grab olives, chances are you won't introduce any harmful bacteria to the brine.
All in all, read the label and take good care of the fruits. If you do that, you should be able to get at least an additional week or two of storage for liquid-packed olives.
How To Store Olives?
This one is pretty straightforward. An unopened package should sit at room temperature or slightly below, away from heat sources and in a closed cabinet. Storing the olives in darkness is especially important for bottles and jars because they let the light in, and prolonged exposure might result in an altered taste.
An open package of olives belongs in the fridge, tightly sealed unless the label says otherwise. If the olives are liquid-packed, leave the liquid as is; it helps keeps the fruit fresh. In case you already discarded the brine, you can easily make your own with just salt and water ([CA]). And make sure the liquid always covers the olives. Otherwise, the fruits that are above the surface level might spoil.
For liquid-free packages, seal the olives tight after opening. If the pouch isn't resealable, use a small airtight container or a freezer bag.
In a Nutshell
- To check for spoilage, look for visual cues like mold, off odor, or changes in flavor; especially if it's a liquid-free package.
- Opened liquid-free olives usually last up to 3 days. Liquid packed ones typically keep for at least a week or two, but often much longer if you take good care of them.
- Refrigerate the olives after opening. Make sure they are submerged in brine or any other liquid they came in. If the package was liquid-free, make sure you seal the leftovers tightly.

Does Apigee have the impersonation capability when calling internal services?
In other words, could Apigee call the internal services under a service account credential?
Kindly let me know your thoughts on this.
Although I wouldn't necessarily consider it impersonation, you have the ability to store backend/target credentials in the encrypted KVM. You could retrieve the service account credentials from the encrypted KVM as part of your proxy flow and use that to populated your backend/target request.
See the service account example, using encrypted KVM, here: https://apigee.com/about/blog/engineering/storing-sensitive-data-encrypted-kvms

Vesa is dragging a load of firewood into place in the cabin, from outside. Hat still on, he piles the chopped-up logs and branches so they won't tumble all over the place.
Raimo skiis in casually from the north, rifle slung over his shoulder, a wry smirk on his face as he arrives at the Cabin. He kicks his skiis off, leaning them against the wall, before stepping inside and removing his heavy overcoat, leaning his rifle against the wall.
Vesa looks over as Raimo comes in, sitting back on his heels. "Where did everyone go?" He asks as he moves to stand up, brushing his hands over the sides of his trousers.
Matti shifts out his skis, shaking his head as he stomps into the cabin. He mutters, "Truck convoy passing on the ice. Tried to delay them, with little success." He moves to the table, digging around for a pack of cards.
Raimo smirks a bit at Vesa, "Nothing.. tried to stop a convoy.. too many people giving orders…. no one thought about trying to stop the trucks with anything more than a rifle.. good target practice I bet."
Niko enters the cabin after Raimo. He unslings his rifle and pulls the bolt back, topping his magazine off with rounds from a stripper clip. To Vesa, he says, "Shooting trucks." The small man shrugs and says, "What have you been doing? Whittle any salmiakki yet?"
Vesa picks up one of the broken pieces of a branch, thumping it against Niko's chest. "Use your imagination." He looks back at Raimo and Matti, raising his eyebrows. "Really? I didn't hear the shooting or I would've come out. I was just getting more firewood, we were getting low. Did anyone get hurt?"
Jaakko says "Hardly anyone got off a shot."
Raimo shakes his head again, "Nope, nobody.. think we only fired a total of four shots… amongst every one…. We didn't really have time to set up or anything, spent too long moving around."
"We need to make holes in the ice, and get people there with grenades. They came too fast for us to prepare the trap." Matti grunts, starting to shuffle the cards. He shouts out, "Antti, are you there?" And looks at the sleeping people still in the pallets, obviously looking for company.
Antti had woken up from dozing when the door opened, but had simply stretched and gotten to his feet. "Yeah. Over here," he mutters to Matti, as he grunts, "Should have told me you were going to shoot at trucks."
Niko glances down at the branch, gnaws on it experimentally, then pitches it into the fireplace. He sits in a chair, setting his rifle across his lap. "I shot twice," the small man says to Vesa. "Think I might have hit some snow. Total, there were two trucks and an armored car." He shrugs.
Matti mutters, "Want to play some poker?" He starts putting down cards for two players, looking around the cabin in a nonverbal offer to join in the game for others, as well. He grunts, after a moment, "Could have used that monster gnu of your's, brother. Mind you, better set up the ambush on the ice next time, maybe rig up some tracks in the ice."
Antti nods once, settling down opposite Matti while he mutters, "A tin car with thier convoys. A tank, and new Rat's tail in Raatevaara. Need to get more shells, soon. Solothurn is down to six shots left."
"Oh." Vesa replies to Niko, looking a little disappointed. "Well, least nobody got killed." He glances over at Matti and Antti, and the cards, and takes a few wandering steps that way. Though his expression's more curious than anything - he doesn't know how to play poker. He nods to Antti, hearing about the ammo. "Maybe we could try stealing ammo again."
Antti mutters to Vesa, "Ivan doesnt carry antitank shells, kid. We have no tanks, remember?" A dry smirk accompanies the words, as he motions silently to a chair, indicating Vesa should sit. To
Matti he adds, "Ivan cleared the wrecks from Raatevaara. The dead Armour, and Field guns are gone."
Niko sets his rifle down and heads over to the stove. He sets some water on it to boil.
Matti deals for three people, glancing at Vesa, "Sit down." And with that, he takes up his cards, muttering, "What are we playing for?" He studies his cards, adding, "And yes. Even people grenading the vehicles would help. Maybe we need to take out the gun in raatevaara, and snatch some ammo on the side as well."
Vesa smirks at Antti. "Oh, right." He has his ditzier moments, alright? Plunking down on the chair, he listens to Matti talk with interest. The cards in front of him get a wary look before he picks them up, looking through them.
Antti looks at his cards before mutters dryly, "With this hand? I say we're playing for the winner bringing in the next motti of firewood." A slowly drawn breath. "Should drag Erkki out with the machine gun next time. Anyone heard from the little sergeant? Only way we're getting more shells for the big gun is if the army drops them for us."
Niko takes the hot water off of the stove and pours it into the percolator for coffee. "The Good Sergeant? The only time I ever see him is when he wants us to do something," Niko says. "And he never comes bearing gifts."
"Sounds good. Not like we can buy much of anything around here anyway. Maybe we should be raiding the Finnish camps, eh?" Matti looks up at Antti, slightly amused as he changes a few cards from the deck. "Now that's what officers and NCOs are like, boy. You hit the nail squarely on the head." This to Niko, in wry tones.
Vesa grins a little at Matti. He watches what they're doing with the cards, trying to figure it out as he looks over what he's got in his hand. "Hey Niko, you know how to play this?"
Antti sniffs in a short chuckle at his brother's comments, before looking shortly aside at Vesa. "Never played poker before?" Brows arch in short lived suprise. To Niko he adds, "Give the kid a hand, will you?" Setting a pair of cards on the table, "I'll take two." Under his breath, he complains, "One or two more times out and the Solothurn will be empty."
Niko glances over at the card game and nods. "Yes," he says. "But I'm not in the mood. Coffee, first. There's enough if you want some." He pours himself a cup, then sits down in a chair. He watches the game. It beats staring out the window.
Niko glances over at the card game and shakes his head. "Not in the mood," he says. "Coffee, first. There's enough if you want some." He pours himself a cup, then sits down in a chair. He watches the game. It beats staring out the window.
"It's not a problem if you don't know how to play, Vesa. You know how to get firewood, right?" Matti shoots a lopsided grin at Vesa. As Antti asks for cards, he mutters, "What do I look like, a goddamn crupier? Get them yourself, you lazy bastard. And yeah. I vote we raid Samppa's camp."
Vesa mutters amiably at Matti. "Sure do. I know where you can shove it, too." He ponders the cards, casting a brief glance at Niko before he realises he's on his own. Nothing like a baptism by fire. He scratches his ear, making a guess at what he's supposed to be doing and laying down two of his card as well, fishing for more. "Raid Samppa's camp?" That almost makes him laugh. "Maybe the Russians would see it. Think we're so crazy they'll just say forget it and go home."
"You look like the goddamn dealer," Antti grouses back, even as he draws his own cards. "Do we even know where Samppa's camp is?" Aside to Vesa, he adds after chuckling at the younger man's retort to Matti, "Short version of the rules is to get as many of things as you can. Lots of one number, or all of one suit. You get to trade in as many of them as you want, once every hand, and draw that many fresh cards."
"Oh, big talk. You continue that when you have some hairs on your chin." Matti looks at Vesa with amusement stamped on his narrow, angular face. "So, I guess we could go and visit Samppa and beg for some ammo. How about that, brother? See if they have some chocolate and booze for us, too. I don't think we got any christmas presents."
Vesa smirks. "You better still be around to see it, Matti." He looks at Antti, listening to the instructions, then back at his cards and the two new ones. "Oh, okay." Chocolate and booze? He raises an eyebrow, looking back at Matti.
Antti mutters wordlessly for a moment. "Hmm. I'll add a shot of vodka to the wood fetching," he mutters raising the pot slightly. "And yeah. We should do that," aside to Matti.
Matti shakes his head at Vesa, sighing, "Your optimism pisses me off, kid." He shoots a surly look at Vesa, but doesn't look altogether serious, despite the lack of a smile on his sullen face. He looks thoughtfully at Antti, before murmuring, "I'll throw in some Russian gold teeth." Just… don't ask. He mutters to Antti. "Lets go after the game. Maybe take out that gun in Raatevaara at the same time."
Vesa just gives Matti a grin at that look. He doesn't say anything else for now, pondering his cards and waiting to see what happens next.
Luukas slowly manages to walk in from the back room of the cabin, a cudgel in his hand he's using as a cane when needed to help shift weight off his left leg when he walks. "Hello Vesa. Are they giving you a rough time, kid?" and manages a low chuckle. The Ostrobothnian stops for a moment, trying to stretch out the injured leg to work the muscles a bit.
"How many gold teeth?" Antti queries of his brother's ante, before muttering aside to Vesa, "If you think you have a better hand than either of us, add something to the bet. Right now, it's up to having someone bring in the next batch of firewood, a hit of vodka, and a few gold teeth." Back to MAtti, "Fine. We'll take a few shots, on the way."
"That sounds like a lot of skiing," Niko says. He stands up and sets his empty coffee cup by the stove. "Hopefully the Good Sergeant has something to spare for you. He doesn't seem like the generous type."
"Just the one, for your one shot of vodka. There are Russians out there. You think Vodka is hard to find?" Matti snorts at Antti, shaking his head as he lays the promised denture on the table. Gross. It's still a little bloody, too. "Come on, show me what you have." And with that, he lays down his cards… Two pairs, 5s and queens.
"Naw, Matti's just sulking," Vesa replies to Luukas, still pondering his hand. He shakes his head and smirks, at least smart enough to know his hand's crap. "Nothing to add this time." Setting it down he shows a pair of tens.
Matti glances up at Luukas, before muttering to Niko, "And I figure we beg for, steal or threaten whatever we can out of them."
Luukas hrmms as he leans a bit, seeing the pair of cards that Vesa shows on the table. "That's why I stuck to darts at the camp, 'stead of cards." and chuckles a bit. He then offers a nod to Matti, "Must've been something other than the usual Russian conscript if he had gold teeth in his mouth. Was that from one of them commissars?"
Antti snorts and sets down his own hand. Three deuces. Aloud he adds, "Well if they want us to keep picking Ivan down they'll need to give us more than just the rifles and bullets we can steal. More of Comrade molotov's drinks, if nothing lse.."
Vesa grins at Luukas and shrugs. "I never played this before." He shifts on the chair, getting more comfortable, and looking over both Antti and matti's hands as they're laid down. "Who won?"
Niko smirks. "The first one, maybe," he says to Matti. "The last two, I'm not so sure. The Good Sergeant probably wouldn't even have you shot. He'd probably bayonet you to save the ammunition." He shrugs. "Who knows, maybe he'd let it slide. Mannerheim needs all the men he can muster, eh?"
"Need petrol, for that. Damn if we could have stopped those trucks in the ice." Matti snorts, looking at Antti sourly. Whether this is due to his losing, or the truck thing, is hard to say. "And you don't know officers like I know officers, Antti. They figure - if we're doing fine with what we have, what do we need more equipment for? Hell, we could probably do with less." His tone is caustic, and cynical with experience. He glances aside at Luukas, shrugging, "I don't know… Didn't ask. He wasn't carrying a party membership book, though. And Mannerheim can still rot for all I care." The last to Niko.
Luukas grunts a bit at Matti's comment about Mannerheim, but doesn't take the bait with a direct response to it. "What's this about the sergeant. You mean Sgt. Samppa?" to Niko, brows raised a bit in curiosity. "I might slow the others down in a cross-country trip, but my leg's feeling good enough that I can help out for shorter runs, now."
Antti sniffs ocne as he picks up the gold tooth, and draws out a small bottle from which he takes a single hit. "Gimme the cards," he mutters, preparing to deal the second hand. "Well, we have no spaniards here, little brother. These are Finns." A snort as he eyes Luukas, "Ostrobothnian, if we're taking that damned big gun, we surely arent walking all that way. Sit in the sled, and dont slow us."
Vesa sits back on the chair to listen to them talk, loosely folding his arms. His eyes flick from one person to the next, taking in what they're saying.
Gustaf stands around, alone as always, listening to the conversation. More like evesdropping.
"Yeah, Sergeant Samppa," Niko says quietly. "He who orders us to fight to the death, but has only been on the line with us once. Once." He shakes his head in disappointment. "If you encounter the Good Sergeant, tell him he can't expect us to hold the roadblock, guard Pyyvaara, and go on raids throwing snowballs. Wo knows, by the New Year, we might be down to that."
Luukas offers to Antti, "The sled it is, then. Sounds good." and adds a single nod. His eyes take a look around to see which men seem to be waiting, or idle. Finally his gaze finds Niko again, and comments, "Can't blame the sergeant. I'm sure he's doing the best he can. He's probably under orders to keep the Russians from advancing to relieve Suomussalmi at all costs himself."
Antti snorts, "Well 'all costs' means giving us more shells," the farmer mutters, as he deals out the second hand. "Ante starts at making someone else clean your rifle," he states flatly, as he eyes his own hand.
Niko shrugs. "Probably the Good Sergeant is," the small man mutters. He doesn't sound convinced, however. He changes the subject, "How's the leg? Does it still hurt?"
Death has arrived.
Death dropped Deck 'o Cards.
Death has left.
Antti deals 5 cards to Matti.
Antti deals 5 cards to Vesa.
Antti deals 5 cards to himself.
Antti sniffs once and again tosses down a pair of cards, drawing two fresh ones. "How many you want, boys?"
Antti discards two of his cards.
Antti deals 2 cards to himself.
Vesa waits for his hand, picking them up once they've come to him. He gently rubs the end of his nose with his fingers, looking back at Antti. "Three."
Vesa discards three of his cards.
Luukas nods faintly, "Leg's a little sore when I step with it, but I can manage. It's not like how it was before, when I couldn't get out of bed." The timberjack faintly groans. "Don't want to have to go through with that again. The sooner these Russians can be run out of here the better." He turns then to Antti, "Did you boys have something planned?"
Antti deals 3 cards to Vesa.
Niko nods to Luukas. He grabs his rifle and heads over to his old cot. Lying down, he closes his eyes, and sleeps.
"My rifle is clean, clean, clean. What kind of a slob are you, Antti? And damnit, officers are the same the world over." Matti mutters this in a surly fashion, picking up his cards and squinting at them in disapproval. Finally, he changes some, adding, "Lets see what happens with getting you some ammo for the monster gun."
Gustaf eyebrow perks up as he spots his comrades now playing cards. He moves closer to them in apparent interest over the game being played.
Gustaf says "What game are you playing?"
"come on, Matti youre holding us up. How many do you want?" Antti grumbles, before nodding once. "Between me and Isak, we've cost Ivan two tanks, six Tin cars, and two Rat's tails. Plus the tricks that Isak killed. Damn right I want to see what happens when we get more ammo."
Vesa eyes the cards he gets back, riffling them once with his thumb. He grins a little at the exchange between Matti and Antti, then looks at Gustaf. "Poker. You know how to play it?" He asks curiously.
Matti discards three of his cards.
Antti deals 3 cards to Matti.
Gustaf bites his upper lip. "I… have heard of it. Yet, I have never played it before. How do I play?" he asks curiously.
"Give me three." Matti adds, "Arto took out one tank and one BA-6 during the ambush on the road. Damn good that he did, too. I went in with him, and only got three Russian bullets for my troubles."
"Yes, Vesa here is the expert on poker. Tell the lad all about it!" Matti calls this out to Gustaf, his voice dry.
"We've cost Ivan the better part of a column, so far," Antti mutters, adding, "I'll add a hit of vodka to the prize. Bet to you, Antti." A moment later he mutters, "But we'll need resupply to keep this up."
Luukas squints over to Gustaf, looking at him like the fellow's an odd bird from some foreign land. "If you need ammo for that antitank rifle, any chance we can ambush a truck soon to get some?" The question seems more directed to the Mannikainen brothers.
Vesa smirks at Matti, shaking his head. "I wasn't offering to explain." He looks over at Luukas. "They were talking about getting it from Samppa." 'Getting it' being a euphemism for what the proposal actually was.
Gustaf shrugs, and then crosses his arms to continue watching. Perhaps he would learn that way.
"I can see who's dealing." Matti mutters this grumpily to Antti. "I fold." He glares at his brother suspiciously, discarding his crappy hand.
Antti snorts again, and mutters to Luukas, "Have you seen a single Ivan with an anti-tank gun, Ostrobothnian? We have no tanks, why in the frozen hell would they be trucking around 20mm shells?" Looking to Vesa, "Add something to the bet, if youre still in, kid."
Matti folds, putting his hand aside.
Luukas shakes his head a bit. "Well, the antitank rifle that the sergeant carried was a different make than the one you have, Antti." and shrugs slightly. "He probably only has ammo for that one, not yours." The man looks over towards where the big rifle's normally kept, as if to recall the details of its appearance.
Vesa looks at his cards, but makes a slight face as he glances back towards where he sleeps. Its a sparse area. "I don't have anything…" He looks back at Antti. "Tell me something you hate doing that I could do in your place."
Antti nods once. "Next time Luukas throws out a stupid idea, you explain to him why raiding Ivan for what he doesnt have wont help us." A dry grin touches the farmer's expression as he mutters to the Ostrobothnian in question, "Anything's better than nothing."
"It was a smaller rifle. I don't know the caliber, but certainly not 20 mm." Matti looks from Antti to Luukas to Vesa, grunting. And looks at the pack. "I'm dealing next time, Antti."
Vesa smirks a little at Antti, and nods to the cards, setting his down on the table. "Okay, then."
Vesa is holding: QC QD 4S 6D 8H.
Luukas then adds, "But what the Russians do have, that we've gotten from their trucks before, are grenades and mines, and the petrol to make Molotovs." as his look then goes to Antti again.
"Winner deals, Matti. You know that," he asides, adding, "Probably one of the english guns. Trained us on those a bit in the service time. A lot lighter than that beast-" he notes with a motion toward the Solothurn. "Doesnt hit as hard, but better than nothing," he shrugs, and eyes Vesa's hand with a grin. "Got you, boy."
Antti is holding: JD QS KH KC 7H.
It takes Vesa a second to look over the cards, but then he sits back and grins back at Antti. "Bah, almost."
Antti collects all the cards and starts to shuffle them.
Antti finishes shuffling the cards.
Matti shakes his head, grunting at Antti's card. "Damn you and your bluffing."
Matti adds, "Why do you even bother shuffling? I know the cards come out of your hat." And with that, he starts to mutter in a more general, deprecatory tone.
Antti chuckles lowly, grinning tightly as he sends out a fresh set of hands. "Grouse all you want, little brother, you're bringing in the next motti.. right after the carpenter here cleans my rifle." Yes, the farmer's list of chores has shortened considerably since the game started.
Antti deals 5 cards to Matti.
Antti deals 5 cards to Vesa.
Antti deals 5 cards to himself.
Vesa wrinkles his nose at that from Antti. Or maybe he's just doing so at the hand he was dealt.
Matti discards three of his cards.
Matti mutters, "Three cards. Another gold tooth says I'm not bringing in that Motti."
Vesa discards two of his cards.
Antti deals 3 cards to Matti.
Antti deals 2 cards to Vesa.
Luukas steps over to look at the newer captured Russian grenades, eyes moving from each one to the next as if doing a count. While standing, he keeps the cudgel in his hand, loosely resting it under his left armpit.
Antti eyes his cards and draws a slow breath. "Whats your bet, Vesa?" he prompts, dealing out the suitable number to each of the other players, and taking three of his own.
Antti discards three of his cards.
Antti deals 3 cards to himself.
Vesa shakes his head, setting the cards down. "I'm out."
Vesa folds, putting his hand aside.
Antti eyes Vesa briefly before looking at his brother, "Not only are you taking in the motti, little brother. But you're going to be Korhonen's assitant for a day once I win this hand. Raise that, if you can."
"I helped myself to another grenade. I could have used it out there on the ice, and looks like almost no one here knows how to throw a grenade. How hard can it be? It's like throwing a sodding rock."
Matti grunts, staring at Antti. "You better hope that I don't win, then. I don't think the boys will thank you for that."
Antti chuckles. "Oh, you misunderstand.."
Vesa grins a little at Antti's wager, settling back to watch the card showdown.
Antti says "Not dressing the gunshots.. Just running the old doctor's errands.""
Antti prompts, blue eyes glittering. "Take the bet if you have the hand for it, little brother."
"Whatever. Lets see them cards." Matti stares at Antti unblinkingly, holding his cards close to his chest.
Luukas turns to Vesa where the teenager's at the table. "Hey Vesa. Feel like coming along on a visit to the big lake?" His expression forms one of a bit of amusement, one hand reaching out to where some skis are. "We can see if the Russians are trying to cross the ice. Anything to help out Sgt. Samppa and the regular army trying to keep Suomussalmi cut off."
Antti grins. "Meet the bet first. Not showing til your on the line too."
"Okay. I'm just playing to get the gold tooth. You have nothing I want." Matti smirks at his brother, fiddling with his cards.
"Just the gold tooth? Fine," Antti concedes with a chuckle. "You should have put something else in little brother." He sets his cards down..
Antti is holding: QC 7C 4S 3H KD.
Matti is holding: 8H 8S 9H 7S 10D.
Vesa watches Matti and Antti hash it out, raising both brows. Mainly because dammit, he would've won the hand. He looks over at Luukas then, and slides out of his chair. "You think your leg's gonna be okay for that?"
Antti laughs shortly once. "Take your tooth, and kick yourself for not having the guts to bid more," he voices to Matti.
"I'd just like my gold tooth back, thanks. You're all air, Antti." Matti shakes his head at his brother, grinning wrily. Maybe he's just happy to in. "And this time, /I'm/ shuffling. Another round?" He looks from Vesa to Antti.
Matti collects all the cards and starts to shuffle them.
Matti finishes shuffling the cards.
Antti nods once. "One more, and then we'll off to Raatevaara, on the way to Samppa. And Ostrobothnian can go fishin on the lake, if he likes."
Matti looks at Vesa, "You too?"
Luukas offers a nod. "That's one thing I'm heading out to see. If it gets too bad, I'll be turning around to come back." He starts putting on his outer garments, the winter snow suit and boots. "Bring some trail food 'case we get stuck." He ignores Antti's comment.
Matti deals 5 cards to Antti.
Matti deals 5 cards to Vesa.
Matti deals 5 cards to himself.
Antti discards two of his cards.
Antti says "Two," as he sets the gold tooth he'd won off MAtti in the first hand back out into the pot."
Vesa glances at Antti, then looks back at Luukas. "We really should go to Samppa first, you know. Get that ammo if we can. We should be more ready before we try much more."
Matti discards three of his cards.
Matti deals 2 cards to Antti.
Matti deals 3 cards to himself.
Matti glances at Antti, dealing for him as he sets the gold tooth he just won as a bet once more. He discards, and takes three cards.
Luukas shrugs his shoulders. "See you later. Enjoy the card game." as he starts making his way to the door, still with a slight limp.
«Game» Luukas moves out of Cabin.
Luukas steps outside the cabin, and slowly crouches down to start slipping on his skis.
"Don't get shot, Ostrobothnian!" Matti calls this friendly advice to Luukas, but doesnt take his eyes from the cards.
Luukas finishes slipping on the skis, rising back up as he reaches for the poles. Taking a moment to steady himself, securely positioning the Russian rifle slung over his back so it's not too loose, the young man pushes off to be heading out.
Vesa slides three cards to Antti, waiting for the return. He's starting to look a bit tired, saying nothing more as they continue.
"I don't want to up the ante. Anyone else?" Matti is ready to show, it seems. Seems he's getting tired of the game, too.
Matti deals 3 cards to Vesa.
Antti shakes his head. "That'll do for me. Vesa?"
"Three," Vesa replies, raising his chin slightly to indicate the three cards he'd tossed out.
Matti mutters drily, "I already gave you three, kid." He nods to the three cards on the table before the younger man.
Vesa is falling asleep or something in the chair. He blinks and picks up the cards, looking over the hand before shaking his head. "Not upping it either."
Antti nods once, and sets his cards out. "Nearly had it," the farmer mutters.
Antti is holding: JD 9C 8H 10S 9S.
Matti shakes his head wrily at Vesa, muttering, "I think it's past your bedtime." He shakes his head at Antti, tossing his cards away. "Had me, anyway." He yawns, leaving the gold tooth there as he heads for the pallet. Apparently, he doesn't seem hugely bothered by the loss… Not much to buy with gold here, after all.
Matti folds, putting his hand aside.
Vesa is holding: QH QC 8C 2S 6H.
Antti bahs! "Your two ladies won that time, kid. Take the teeth.." In reference to the 'pot' of two slightly used gold teeth in the center of the table.
Vesa gives the teeth a bit of a look, but takes them anyway. "You can win em back later, I'm sure." He grins a little at Antti, then stands up, looking at Matti. "Like you should talk. Look like you're about to fall off your chair." He shoves his own in towards the table, preparing to get some sleep.
"Lets hope you won't have much use for them anytime soon." Matti mutters this wrily from his pallet, as he kicks off his boots. He just snorts at Vesa. Or does he? Actually, he's just snoring. The man possesses the amazing ability to fall asleep almost anywhere instantly. The sleeping conditions are pretty ideal here after all, all things considered.

Winterhawks' Blichfeld wins WHL Player of the Year Award
Joachim Blichfeld was briefly disappointed when the San Jose Sharks sent him back to Portland for one more season of junior hockey.
The forward from Frederikshavn, Denmark then made the most of his 20-year-old season.
On Wednesday, Blichfeld was named winner of the Four Broncos Memorial Award as the Western Hockey League Player of the Year for 2018-19.
Blichfeld led the league with 53 goals and 114 points in 68 regular-season games, numbers that would have been even higher had Cody Glass been available for more than 38 of those games.
The Winterhawks also won the WHL's Scholastic Team of the Year award.
Blichfeld is the fourth Winterhawk WHL player of the year. Oliver Bjorkstrand (118 points, 2014-15), Steve Konowalchuk (104 points, 1991-92) and Perry Turnbull (118 points, 1978-79) were the others.
Blichfeld had 105 goals and 123 assists in 187 regular-season games over three seasons with the Winterhawks.
Currently training with Denmark in advance of the 2019 IIHF World Championship tournament, Blichfeld is expected to begin his pro career next season with the San Jose Barracuda of the American Hockey League.
This is the sixth time Portland has been honored as the WHL's Scholastic Team of the Year. Eight players enrolled at Sunset High had a combined 3.0 GPA, and 16 players earned a combined 96 credit hours at Clackamas Community College.
Oregon and Oregon State have been chosen for the NCAA's May 13-15 regional at TPC Myrtle Beach in South Carolina.
The Ducks are seeded seventh out of 14 teams. The Beavers are 10th.
Wake Forest and California are 1-2.
• Oregon senior Edwin Yi made the all-Pac-12 second team.
UO senior Ryan Gronlund and OSU sophomore Spencer Tibbits were honorable mention.
The all-freshman team includes Oregon's Yin Ho Yuu and Oregon State's Sean Kato. Craig Ronne of the Ducks was honorable mention all-freshman team.
Former Portland Christian High star Kim Hill is back on Team USA for the 2019 FIVB Volleyball Nations League, the top annual tournament in the world.
Hill is one of nine outside hitters on the 30-play preliminary roster for coach Karch Kiraly.
The Portland Pilots will kick off their 2019 season at Merlo Field on Friday, Aug. 30, against Colgate, which made the second round of the NCAA tournament in 2018.
The University of Portland will open at Washington on Friday, Aug. 23.
The Pilots' home opener is Sunday, Sept. 8, against Denver.
Concordia senior Mckenzie Smith has been named to the all-Great Northwest Athletic Conference team as a utility player.
Juniors Sally Bowles (pitcher) and Hannah Self (catcher) made the secone team from Concordia.
Bowles also was chosen as the GNAC Newcomer of the Year.
Honorable mention Cavaliers were sophomores Marisa Stockton (first base) and Paityn Willoughby (designated player).
Concordia's Shelby Whitaker was voted co-coach of the year, along with Mike Larabee of regular-season league champion Central Washington.
The Cavs, who were picked to finish last in the coaches' preseason poll, will be the No. 3 seed in the four-team conference tournament this week at Concordia.

16 He crushed my teeth into the gravel; he pressed me down into the ashes.
17 I've rejected peace; I've forgotten what is good.
18 I thought: My future is gone, as well as my hope from the LORD.
19 The memory of my suffering and homelessness is bitterness and poison.
20 I can't help but remember and am depressed.
21 I call all this to mind—therefore, I will wait.
22 Certainly the faithful love of the LORD hasn't ended; certainly God's compassion isn't through!
23 They are renewed every morning. Great is your faithfulness.
24 I think: The LORD is my portion! Therefore, I'll wait for him.
25 The LORD is good to those who hope in him, to the person who seeks him.
26 It's good to wait in silence for the LORD's deliverance.
In 586 B.C., Babylon's army destroyed Jerusalem and exiled many leading citizens. (You can read about Jerusalem's fall in 2 Kings 25:1-21). Lamentations recorded the anguish of an Israelite (maybe the prophet Jeremiah) left behind in Judah. The writer of Lamentations couldn't see any human hope for the future (verse 18) and had to deal with "suffering and homelessness" (verse 19) in the present.
Creator God, thank you for the gift of this new day. Whatever trials or hardships I may face today, let the morning light remind me that your mercies are ever-present with me. Amen.
* H. L. Ellison, article on "Lamentations" in The Expositor's Bible Commentary, Abridged: Old Testament. Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan, 1994, p. 1268.
First off, I want to take a second to talk about how awesome it is that our church is talking so openly about suicide. It's a major problem, and so few churches are talking about the problem well, if they talk about it at all. I grew up going to a small church in a small town in Florida, and I experienced this first-hand when, unbeknownst to me, my bipolar disorder manifested and started wrecking my life. As well-meaning as my church was, it had no idea how to deal with my problems, so it often made them worse.
At my worst, around age 21, I frequently got depressed and occasionally grew suicidal. A few times, I acted on those impulses, and I'm very lucky to be alive today. But even when I wasn't suicidal, depression is awful. And what's just as awful as depression is the bad unsolicited advice that people give you when you're depressed. Without irony, here are some of the things people have suggested to me to end my depression:
And, just like my well-meaning church I mentioned above, these hollow suggestions frequently made me worse, not necessarily because these are bad things, but because the people suggesting them had no idea what the problem was. If I hear that someone has been in a really bad accident and is going through physical therapy, I'm not going to give him tips that have enabled me to walk longer distances when I've never dealt with a similar injury. He has a much more serious problem than I have, and the professionals he's working with have it under control. Similarly, if a friend loses his wife in a horrible accident, I'm not going to give him tips on how I cope with my wife leaving town for a week. But this is what people with depression and suicidal ideation deal with on a regular basis.
And that's why I love Bible passages like today's. I'm so glad we have Bible passages written by people in real anguish, so we don't just have perfect prophets sitting atop ivory towers doling out unsolicited advice to the morose and broken people surrounding them. Our Bible has passages written by people who have really struggled with depression, loss, and defeat. Similarly, our church also has people that deal with those things. I had the privilege of playing in the band this past Sunday when Adam spoke his message on suicide prevention, and I very intentionally wore my suicide awareness T-shirt so that people would know that at least one of the people on that big stage had also been there.
Getting through depression and suicidal ideation is a marathon, but people often assume that it's a sprint. People often assumed they could fix me in one ten-minute conversation. In a few cases, people actually got mad at me when they couldn't fix me and they told me that I deserved my fate because I didn't even want to solve my problems. But those of us who regularly battle depression know that it isn't one big realization or revelation that saves us from the depths of despair, but the little things that get us through each day. The writer of today's passage knew this; in verses 22-23, he says, "Certainly the faithful love of the LORD hasn't ended; certainly God's compassion isn't through! They are renewed every morning. Great is your faithfulness."
If you're dealing with a seemingly crushing amount of depression or feeling suicidal, getting through the next year may seem impossible; but getting through today is more manageable. God's love and compassion can help you get through each day, just like the continued love and support of your family and regular help from a medical professional can. It's hard, but you have to do it every day.
If you know someone who is dealing with major depression or feeling suicidal, don't assume you can fix them in one conversation. Please check in on your friends regularly. If a friend is so far down that he or she is thinking about suicide, they probably don't have a lot of hope that their problems can be solved. It is not enough to say, "Let me know if you need anything." You need to go to them. Be willing to sit with them and talk with them for days or weeks to help them through this. Beating suicide happens together, and usually only when someone knows they'll have support over a longer period of time.

look in the mirror
10/10/2007 Leave a comment
Its always got to look at your self and see how far you've come. I was looking at some stuff i wrote on my old myspace blog and i was just trying to go back to that point and realize where i was at that point in life. Its a wierd thing to do because so much has changed in that brief amount of time. I dont remember why i wrote some of the stuff or what exactly was on my mind, but i do know that i gotta stay true to myself and not lose track of the personal goals i have set for myself.
I have to keep pushing myself to do the good that i know i have in me. I have to suppress the fear and doubt and replace it with positive thinking and strenght. I encourage everyone to just look back and make sure that you are still on track with things, you owe it to yourself and the world to fulfill your dreams.

A client with a 2008 Mercedes E350 recently stopped by our Midlothian location, looking to upgrade his factory car stereo system. It was equipped with the Mercedes Harmon Kardon system. He was happy with the sound, but not with the user interface and lack of modern technology.
After checking out the various car stereo options, the client really liked the simple and familiar interface of Apple CarPlay. Alpine offers the only wireless CarPlay-capable car stereo with their iLX-107. Simply get in the car and it connects to
your phone automatically, using WiFi. It also has a very sleek design, which makes it look great in the dash.
To integrate into the Mercedes Harmon Kardon system, NavTV makes an integration device called a MOST-HUR (head unit replacement) that keeps the factory amp in the system. We also used a Mercedes-specific dash kit that NavTV offers. Combine those with a PAC swicp2 steering wheel control interface, and he was able to keep all of the OEM systems intact. Now he's ready for his weekly Washington, DC, commute, armed with fully integrated Apple Maps, Messaging and his favorite music apps.
Looking to upgrade the car audio system in your Mercedes? Stop by one of our Richmond area locations, in Midlothian or Mechanicsville, or contact us here.

Sure, yohimbe is natural aphrodisiac, but what about using yohimbe for weight loss? Two West African tribes, the Pygmies and the Bushmen, have also used the herb (known scientifically as pausinystalia yohimbe) for ages to do just that. After German missionaries to West Africa realized yohimbe was so beneficial — not just in the bedroom but also to help them lose weight, boost metabolism, and prompt fat oxidation — they spread the word back home in Europe, and the herb caught on like gangbusters.
In this post, I'll look at yohimbe's historical weight loss applications and scientific research about yohimbe and fat loss.
Workout Science 101
Know what a vasodilator is? It opens up your blood vessels. Bodybuilders are crazy about them because vasodilators help oxygen get to your muscles while you're working out. To put it simply, your muscles need oxygen to turn sugar and fatty acids into energy; this process is called cellular respiration. That's why you breathe heavier while you're exercising — your body needs more oxygen to create a high-energy molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP helps fuel your muscles.
When you're working out, you want to burn sugar and especially fat, right? More oxygen will help you get there. Plus, it just plain feels good. "What results [from vasodilation] is that wonderful feeling of skin and muscle swelling which is called the 'pump' after an intense workout, or the 'runner's high' after an invigorating run," explains one bodybuilding site.
How's that related to yohimbe? Well, its main alkaloid, yohimbine HCL, functions as a vasodilator. So some people believe yohimbe can aid in cellular respiration and ultimately make workouts easier.
Yohimbe and Weight Loss
What does a 90-foot evergreen tree have to do with your Zumba class? At first glance, nothing. To get the connection, we have to backtrack to the early days of African warriors, who would shave off bits of bark from the tall yohimbe tree, make them into a tea, and drink it before going into battle. That's because they believed yohimbe could boost stamina (you can see how it might also be a good aphrodisiac).
Over the years, people have taken yohimbine as a pre-workout aid to help endurance, build muscle, and speed post-exercise recovery. More oxygen means more energy, which comes in handy for building lean muscle mass. Yohimbe might also be beneficial for getting rid of fat. Scientists have found it to kickstart lipolysis, the process of breaking down lipids (aka burning fatty molecules). Bodybuilding.com explains it this way: "Yohimbine is an alpha2 receptor antagonist, which means it inhibits the action of the alpha2 receptor. By blocking the alpha2 receptor with yohimbine…fatty acid liberation is increased." HealthWise agrees: "This alkaloid…[helps] you get more adrenaline and, thus, increased metabolism."
Research on Using Yohimbe for Fat Loss
Over the past three decades, there have been several studies about yohimbe and weight loss. Not a lot — scientists definitely need to do more conclusive research. But for now, let's take a look at the existing studies.
The paper "Does Yohimbine Act As a Slimming Drug?" explains how researchers C. Kucio, K. Jonderko, and D. Piskorska studied 20 obese women over three weeks, giving half of them 20 mg of yohimbe daily with a low-calorie diet. Compared to the placebo group, the women taking yohimbe lost about three pounds more. Nothing staggering, but it's a promising start.
Researcher Mark F. McCarty examined the effects of taking yohimbine before working out, publishing his results in the journal Medical Hypotheses and concluding, "Pre-exercise administration of yohimbine will lower the respiratory quotient during and following exercise, thus promoting fat loss."
Sergej M. Ostojic studied elite male soccer players and what yohimbine would do to their fat levels in this study, which was published in Research and Sports Medicine. His results were statistically significant: The chemical helped lower the athletes' average body fat to 7% from slightly over 9%. Ostojic concluded, "Yohimbine supplementation appears to be suitable as a fat loss strategy in elite athletes."
What People Say About Yohimbe and Weight Loss
Some Reddit users have shared their experience using yohimbe for fat loss. User SundaysYohimbine writes, "Yohimbine…is especially well suited for 'stubborn fat loss' when you start to get to low body fat percentages, making it ideal for leaner individuals." However, Reddit users note that they have best success taking yohimbe (or a combination of yohimbe and caffeine) on an empty stomach.
Fat-loss writer Lyle McDonald concurs: "The increase in insulin from eating anything will negate the effect of yohimbine completely and the negative studies on yohimbine invariably used it in people who had eaten."
There's obviously much more to learn about yohimbe and weight loss, but hopefully this gave you a good introduction to what's out there.
What do you think of yohimbe? What helps you lose weight and keep it off?
Yohimbe can raise blood pressure and cause anxiety. Talk to your physician if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, diabetic, or taking any medications.

Uncollectable / Delinquent Debt
Bad debt is uncollectible / delinquent debt that has been determined to be uncollectable by the end of the school year in which the debt was incurred. If the uncollectable / delinquent debt cannot be recovered by the School Meals Program in the year the debt was incurred, it is classified as bad debt. Once classified as bad debt, non-Federal funding sources must reimburse the NSFSA for the total amount of the bad debt. Funds may come from the district general fund, State or local funding, school or community organizations such as the PTA, or any other non-Federal source. Once the uncollectable / delinquent debt charges are converted to bad debt, records relating to those charges must be maintained in accordance with the record retention requirements in 7 CFR 210.9(b) (17) and 7 CFR 210.15(b).
The Business Office will conduct periodic reviews of all food service accounts. Any surplus funds from the National School Lunch Program shall be used to reduce the cost of the service to students or to purchase cafeteria equipment. Surplus funds from a` la carte foods purchased using funds from the nonprofit food service account must accrue to the nonprofit food service account. Bad debt incurred through the inability to collect lunch payment from students is not an allowable cost chargeable to any Federal program. Any related collection costs, including legal costs, arising from such bad debt after they have been determined to be uncollectable are also unallowable.
Free & Reduced Breakfast / Lunch Application

Wellness Policy
Grand Ledge Public Schools
Board of Education
Operations Policy
Category IX: Students
Subject: Wellness
As required by law, the Board of Education establishes the following student wellness policy for the Grand Ledge Public School District.
The Board recognizes that good nutrition and regular physical activity affect the health and well being of the District's students. Furthermore, research concludes that there is a positive correlation between a student's health and well-being and his / her ability to learn. Moreover, schools can play an important role in the developmental process by which students establish their health and nutrition habits by providing nutritious meals and snacks through the schools' meal programs, by supporting the development of good eating habits, and by promoting increased physical activity both in and out of school.
The Board, however, believes this effort to support the students' development of healthy behaviors and habits with regard to eating and exercise cannot be accomplished by the schools alone. It will be necessary for not only the staff, but also parents and the public at large to be involved in a community-wide effort to promote, support and model such health behaviors and habits.

Written DirectionsBegins in Clarksville, AR off I-40. Take Hwy 21 north up thru the Ozark National Forest. Heading North up thru Fallsville on to Boxley, AR.
SceneryThe Ozark Highlands Scenic Byway passes through a rugged section of the Boston Mountains (located in the Ozark National Forest) in the Ozarks.
Drive EnjoymentThis is one of my favorite roads because you ride and never pass another car. There are many turns and hills that made this ride one of the best in Arkansas.
Tourism OpportunitiesThe area is packed with outdoor opportunities like hiking, canoeing, caving, rock climbing, fishing, hunting, mountain biking and horseback riding. A herd of about 450 elk roam the Buffalo River corridor at Boxley Valley, Steel Creek, Kyle's Landing, Erbie, Ozark, Pruitt, and even on private lands, and Newton County is known as the Elk Capital of Arkansas.

Another great ride and road in Arkansas, man I am blessed to live in this great riding state. I have ridden highway 21 several times from both directions, can't say enough good things about it. It has a good road surface and a lot of sweeping curves and few tight ones thrown in to keep you alert. Great scenery throughout the whole ride and don't get me started about the fall colors, magnificent, some of the best in the state. This doesn't even account for all the great secondary roads you can take east or west. Don't forget to check out picturesque Boxley Valley, have your camera ready to snaps some pics of the elk grazing in the area in the early morning or late evening. Enjoy!

Another fabulous road. Makes me wish I lived closer. Are there any bad roads in northwest AR? This site encouraged me to make my first trip to the area and I was definitely not disappointed.

The wife and I ran this one last month. It is a great road. Combine it with a run up AR 7 and it makes a nice loop.

Pension Review
Regular health reviews on your pension plans.
When was the last time that you checked how your pension is performing? If you don't carry out regular reviews on the performance of your pension you could be losing out and even find that your pension will not provide you with the comfortable retirement you are looking forward to.
If you are currently contributing to a personal pension scheme or have previously contributed to either a personal pension or even a money purchase scheme offered by an old employer, pension reviews can be very worthwhile. One factor to look at when reviewing pensions are the costs involved. Charges on some "older style" plans are much higher than their modern equivalent, so having a pension review will reveal what effect these charges are having to your pension value.
Many people pay into pensions for years but have no idea how hard their money is working for them. Some clients are not even sure what sort of products they have and the element of risk associated with the plan. We can provide an impartial assessment of your pension products and advise you in plain jargon free terms, exactly where you stand and how your plans are performing.
If we find your plan is meeting your current requirements and performing well it may well be a case of staying as you are. However, if we feel you may benefit by transferring your pension to another provider we will recommend a more suitable product. We will also explain clearly the benefits and options to help you make an informed decision if it's in your best interests to make the change.
The value of your pension investments can go down as well as up, so you could get back less than you invested. Past performance is no guarantee of future returns.

Poetry Month: Dear Black Pants, A Sonnet 13 of 30
It's also Friday. Today I'm joining the Poetry Friday community as they celebrate poetry. Today Robyn Hood Black is hosting at Life on the Deckle Edge. Stop by and join the celebration.
Today I decided to have a little fun. Where would I be without black pants?
Dear Black Pants
Each day into my closet I do reach,
For a pair of black pants ready to wear.
I do ignore the constant inner speech.
It's reprimand, I can no longer bear.
Black pants you do make my life a dream
With the great ease you bring to each new day.
You make each morning easy it does seem.
I love you more than blue or beige or gray.
With you black pants, any shirt I may choose.
Everything looks just fine with you, pants dear.
No matter my choice, I just cannot lose.
You make my early mornings free of fear.
But I must move past you, please do see.
Please know, dear pants, it isn't you, it's me.
© Cathy L. Mere, 2018

Apple will require all new apps to be optimized for iOS 7 from February 1
Apple has told developers that all apps submitted to the App Store — be they new releases or merely updates — must be optimized for iOS 7 by February 1. A note on the company's developer site reads:
Starting February 1, new apps and app updates submitted to the App Store must be built with the latest version of Xcode 5 and must be optimized for iOS 7. Learn more about preparing your apps by reviewing the iOS Human Interface Guidelines.
The latest operating system was announced in June and beginning rolling out to users in September. Adoption of iOS 7 among users is currently at 76 percent which, alongside the platform's new features, gives developers a clear reason to optimize their apps — though many may have a lot of work on their hands to do so before this deadline.
➤ Apple to require all new App Store submissions to be "optimized for iOS 7," built with latest Xcode starting Feb. 1 [9to5mac]

Stella Bella, 13.5 yrs young
For those of you who have older Bouvs (or even younger ones, for that matter) please take care of their teeth. If you don't brush them daily -- even if they have bones -- tartar builds up, infections occur, etc.
I can relate to you that Stella Bella -- age 14.5 -- is having a rebirth of sorts.
No, she has not lost her lifelong caution & insecurities BUT she is now running (arthritically), is somewhat more excited about treats & wants to be out & about more since 6 rotten teeth were pulled from her mouth.
I held my breath when I decided to have this done and & I am VERY glad I did !! As we all know these guys are quite taciturn, can take a lot of pain w/o complaint & I feel so guilty about what was clearly a failure on my part to realize Stella's discomfort over what must have been a long period.
It's just that it's so damned hard to read her as there is so little to read in her reactions in the first place but I definitely see a difference in her behavior now.
Yes, it is an added cost. Yes, your Bouv does have to undergo some form of anesthetic. But if if you decide to do it, be sure to discuss a course of antibiotics with your vet before the procedures.
I pass this on to you all as a cautionary 'tail'. (For more Bouvier tails click here.
Hugs to all your Bouvs.

Leica SL Typ 601 Firmware Update 3.1 Released:
For those interested (I am for sure), Leica has released firmware update 3.1 for the Leica SL. I find this firmware update particularly good because according to Leica, it'll improve the image quality, and overall color balance of the jpegs. Most importantly though (at least for me), it'll improve the autofocus speed, and accuracy of the autofocus position of the Summilux-SL 50mm f/1.4 ASPH lens. I haven't tried it yet but you can bet I will right after I finish writing this little post up :). The link to the firmware update is below:
On a side note, I really like what Leica has been doing in terms of the firmware updates for the SL. Each update has actually been really useful, and makes the camera even better. I absolutely love my 50mm Summilux-SL. It's my favorite lens from any manufacturer. I was actually okay with the autofocus but hey, I'm not going to complain if Leica can speed it up ;). So, thanks for stopping by, and for those who own the lens, feel free to drop me a message in the comment section to let me know what you think of the new update.

Dump Truck & Tow Truck Accident Attorneys in San Antonio
Working to Help You Recover the Compensation You Are Owed
Dump trucks, tow trucks, and construction vehicles pose heightened accident risks to other drivers, motorcyclists, and even pedestrians. If you're around one of those vehicles, you can do everything right and still get injured.
At The Law Offices of Tyler & Peery, our San Antonio dump truck and tow truck accident attorneys can help you understand and assert your legal rights after such an accident. Give us a call today to discuss your specific case in a confidential, no-cost consultation. We serve clients in Bexar County and throughout Texas.
We can be reached online or by phone at (210) 774-6445.
How Did Your Accident Happen?
There are many ways in which a dump truck or a tow truck can cause an accident. For example, many dump truck drivers get paid on how many loads they deliver. Often, safety goes out the window as they hurry to make one more run by the end of the day.
Some common causes of dump truck and tow truck accidents include:
- Dump truck accidents can happen on the way to or from the oilfields or a construction site. Indeed, they can also happen on an energy extraction or construction site itself such as when a truck that is dumping its load tips over due to the abrupt change in weight.
- Along with construction vehicle accidents, another common type of accident involving dump trucks is backup accidents.
- For tow trucks, accident hazards are also significant. Of course, tow truck operators who respond to roadside emergency calls face serious dangers from passing cars. Yet those same operators can also cause accidents if the car they are towing affects their vision or the balance of the tow truck.
Get a Free Case Evaluation
If you were injured in an accident with a dump truck or a tow truck, we encourage you to get in touch with our firm to get a free case evaluation with an experienced dump truck and tow truck accident attorney in San Antonio.
