When I am getting ready for a show or a trip, all kinds of random things get finished. And not just dolls. I think I make myself a new bag before many trips. And lately, it has been summer shirts.
The polka dots is a light weight linen. The plaid is a vintage cotton from my mom's stash, probably from the late 60's.
and earring-
The things is, I never think about my clothes, accessories or jewelry unless I am doing an event or packing my suitcase for a trip. And why should I? I work at home where my main consideration is comfort. And then, all of a sudden I start obsessing about what I'm going to wear!
I've started making shirts (and other clothes too) by making patterns from old ones that I like, that fit and have worn out. I cut them up and trace the pieces. These two shirts were made by tracing the pieces of 2 other shirts that are no longer wearable. The polka dot shirt is the fourth one I've made from one shirt that I really liked. I used the shirt directions in the book Sew U to help me with pattern piece placement and instructions for how to put them all back together. I make clothes this way because of my dissatisfaction with commercial patterns. I guess I must be of an age or body type that doesn't match up with the patterns. And I don't have the patience or knowledge to alter (or completely rework) them. When I try matching up my I-know-this-fits pattern pieces to commercial patterns that I have spent (wasted) money on, they seem to be quite different. Hmm… mystery!

I am seriously considering signing up for the 'World Student Go Oza' championship preliminaries.
Technically I meet all of the requirements to participate, so why am I doubting?
Because I obviously don't stand a chance.
The thing is, I don't mind not standing a chance, but wouldn't I be wasting somebody else's time?
I am not even a high kyu, so it would be weird for me to participate in something like this, right?
On the other hand, they don't mention an indication of a minimum strength anywhere, so maybe they don't mind?
I'm probably just over thinking this.
Anyway, I have given myself time until the 23rd of November to decide whether or not I will sign up, since registration closes the 24th.
Until then, I am going to do some 'semi-intense' studying, and if this is effective, I will sign up. If not, I probably won't sign up either. No matter what the outcome, at least I'll be motivated to study.
As for my studying, I want to do at least one hour of problems every day, watch one lecture of 'Becoming 5 kyu' (GoGameGuru's Baduk TV English service) every day, play one game (including review) every day, spend about half an hour on go theory.
That should total to about 3 and a half hours of go studying a day.
This does not include things that I do for enjoyment (e.g. watching Baduk TV reviews, replaying pro games, watching high dans play online), because I honestly don't think that actually helps me improve, but I'll keep doing it because it is fun J.

My iPhone is made in China too...as is probably 75 percent of things in your life.
Do I like American made...of course...does that mean everything from China is garbage...that's ridiculous.
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing"
Edmund Burke
I think it's a safe bet that most things in our homes...appliances, furniture, building materials, roofing, siding, etc....whether we like it or not...is made in China. The iPhone IS made in China. Designed in a California is just spin. Most American companies use parts made in China. Including "American" gun light manufacturers. Most batteries are made in China. One can be proud to be an American, do their best to buy American, and acknowledge facts.
Surefire, expensive but Made in the USA
From Surefire's website "We do import a few components - most notably, the finest light emitting diodes (LEDs) from top-notch manufacturers outside the country - to incorporate into our products."
Curious it doesn't say what country that is...maybe it's Korea...who knows.
It does look like Surefire tries their best to be all American made. Hats off to them and that's great. Seriously. I have some of their stuff and it's really good.
That being said, and as I caress my German made (Not American) sweetness...I'm reminded to get back on the original topic...
The PL Mini 2 is a great, super bright, light. Its USB/magnetic charge is great and intuitive. It's great to not buy anymore batteries...from China.
Let me help you:
Purchase in-country:
This is suppose to be a fun HK gun forum...not a debate on foreign trade policy with China. All I did was remark on a good light for a USP and it turned into some ridiculous nonsense on trade policy and China. We can keep playing the "I get the last word" nonsense battle and flame war it up or we can all have fun talking about HK gun stuff. Maybe it's the military in me, but I choose to be polite and civil to others and save my fight for the battlefield. I hope others choose the same. In all sincerity, have a nice day and see you all on the range.

Explore any interior design or furniture showroom in Italy and a roster of industry-leading names will soon present themselves: Boffi, B&B Italia, Cassina, Kartell and Alessi, to mention just a few. Many of them are still independent or family businesses with a reputation for pushing the boundaries of form as well as manufacturing methods. These are household names in some of the world's most chic homes.
One woman, Patricia Urquiola, is increasingly involved with developing ideas for such interiors brands. Born in Spain, she trained in Italy under and alongside some of the country's leading designers, including Vico Magistretti, Achille Castiglioni and Piero Lissoni. Urquiola lives and works in Milan; she set up her design studio 15 years ago and is arguably the most important designer of her generation.
Design on her mind
When we meet, she runs her hand over the functional but warm surfaces of the kitchen she's designed for Boffi and points out the design's modularity, which makes it suitable for smaller spaces. 'Look at this,' she says, suddenly grabbing hold of the chopping board-style wooden counter-top, which slides out to become a breakfast table.
This is the first Boffi kitchen to be designed by a woman. 'We're a very masculine company with a very masculine product but we knew we wanted a more feminine element in the approach to materials and colours, and to put the kitchen together without the usual traditional cabinets,' explains Roberto Gavazzi, the CEO of Boffi, of its decision to hire Urquiola. 'She uses curves where we, well, we might tend to be more square.'
The feminine touch
Curvaceous, tactile, playful: these are all adjectives which have been applied to Urquiola's work for a wide range of clients, from Hermès and Salvatore Ferragamo to Driade, Moroso, BMW, Ruinart, Panasonic, Mandarin Oriental and Flos. These could be considered feminine qualities in what Urquiola describes as the 'industrial world' of design. 'There are a lot of men, a lot of managers making decisions and feeling that perhaps they need a man to front a project to give it credibility,' Urquiola suggests, going on to say that women's talents should be given space blossom. 'I think society understands that, as it's becoming more and more feminine in some ways, and more democratic.'
Design for life
The success of Urquiola's designs is, perhaps, a result of her readiness, where possible, to live with her prototypes while refining them (her home is above her office). She speaks of the need for each design to appeal to a sense of familiarity, an idea that her friend, the chef Ferran Adrià, gave her. Her 2006 Smock office chair, for example, incorporates the design of a smock worn by her first baby. Her Night & Day sofa for Molteni & C, another Italian company, acknowledges how we use sofas, not as showcase pieces but as island hubs on which to rest, work and play. Hers is a basic but clever structure, onto which cushions can be configured as well as armrests, baskets, storage units and occasional tables.
'Functionality is important of course, but it isn't enough. For me it's about experiences and bringing them together in a product. It's about taking a critical attitude and connecting with the relevant culture and about your sense of how society is evolving. You don't need to know everything there is to know about chairs to design a chair.'
Furniture for the family
Urquiola is equally interested in working with companies to find new ways of making, whether that be a craft technique or an industrial process. Another sofa, for instance – Bend, designed for B&B Italia – uses a clever patchwork form for the covering and saw the development of a pioneering multi-perforated foam inner which gives the same comfort as standard foam but is lighter and uses less material. Husk, a chair also for B&B Italia, has a cushioning system that can be fully removed for washing, while each piece of the design is removable and replaceable, should a leg get damaged, for example.
'I'm just curious,' she says of her predilection to keep pushing at things until they're just right. 'When I'm working on one thing, that's all I'm doing, that's all I'm thinking about. And I love to break a prejudice, including my own. Like artists, to move forward you have to get out of your comfort zone.'

There is a new guy in the neighborhood! He's cool, classic, and has one of those sexy English accents.
It's Albert Ross, the Flying Man, by well known British kitemaker Martin Lester. (Albert Ross -- Albatross -- get it??).
This kite is so new we haven't even put it up in the sky yet. It arrived yesterday and we rolled it out in the den and started to laugh. We can just imagine how Albert will dominate a skyline.
"Albert" is the same size as Martin's Scuba Man, 14 feet long and a surprisingly stable flier. We have one in stock now but will be getting more.
Oh yes, and he is numbered #3 of the series. Do you want the first in the USA?? Your cost is $300.
GKPI now carries all the flying creations and "body parts" by Martin Lester. Check him out in our KiteMaster's Guild.

近日,我院副教授唐立鑫的合作论文"The Alibaba effect: Spatial consumption inequality and welfare gains from e-commerce"(合作者:美国宾夕法尼亚州立大学樊静霆、西班牙IESE商学院朱未名、美国密歇根州立大学邹奔)发表于国际经济学顶级期刊Journal of International Economics。
Domestic trade costs reduce aggregate welfare and result in worse access to consumption goods in small and remote cities. As a new trade technology, e-commerce can increase inter-city trade and alleviate spatial consumption inequality because it (1) eliminates the fixed cost of market entry, and (2) reduces the effects of distance on trade costs. Using unique data from China's leading e-commerce platform, we provide evidence consistent with these two features: online trade is less hindered by distance relative to offline trade, and residents from smaller and more remote cities spend a larger fraction of their income online. We then build a multi-region general equilibrium model to quantify the impacts of e-commerce on domestic trade and welfare. We find that although it partially crowds out inter-city trade originally taking place offline, the emergence of e-commerce increases the aggregate domestic trade. The welfare gains from e-commerce are 1.6% on average, and are about 30% larger for cities in the smallest population and market potential quintiles.

The Children's Day Party Held At Victory Park 206 Road, Festac Town, Lagos was a huge success. It kicked off at 11am with the opening prayer said by a school representative. The welcome address was delivered by Mrs. Collette Okwuchi on behalf of the EDG, while Mrs Chinelo Umeh spoke on the topic "In wellness with Zolat". A question and answer session followed afterwards. Recitation and presentations from various schools were also made.
However due to time constraint, a spelling bee competition was organized instead of the initially proposed playlet. All participating schools presented two children each to represent them. At the end of it all, two schools emerged winners of the competition. The first school was presented with a brand new HP LaserJet printer, while the second position received a white markerboard. The children had lots of fun as there were competitive games, dances, bouncing castles with lots to eat and drink.
The event was also covered by Festactown Community builders initiative and posted online amongst other events organized in Festac town to mark this year's children's day. Details can be found on their site: Festactown.com.ng.
It was a very memorable day, one We believe the children would not forget in a hurry. Again, the objective of brand reinforcement which was set out to achieve was realized as virtually all the children would confidently assert that Zolat from Emzor is the leading brand of worm expeller and the ultimate solution to worm infections. Also various school representatives were full of gratitude to the management of Emzor Pharmaceuticals for hosting them to such a great event.

We all know the positive endorphins exercise and animals provide, which is why it seemed a great fit that AWL NSW affiliate themselves with an event which challenges both mental and physical toughness, whilst promoting and encouraging positive challenges and overall healthy lifestyle. We're talking about Tough Mudder ('Tough Mutter').
Here at AWL NSW we're of the opinion that the rehabilitation of some or our shelter animals is similar to training for events such as Tough Mudder:
- Regular exercise,
- Good nutrition, and
- Lots of discipline
Make Tough Mudder your next goal to smash – you've just found your personal trainer! Dogs are typically busting at the seams to be outdoors releasing bounds of energy – if they won't help you stick to a training plan, nothing will. If you're planning a run make no bones about the fact that your dogs' eager fast pace will leave you with no choice than to push yours! If you're feeling tired or bored, you can feed off your canine companions positive vibes, which can be a pick-me-up and take your mind off the kilometres ahead. Mix up your run with some on the spot exercises and work on the obedience training at the same time ('sit', 'stay' and the like) – while you pump out the push-ups and sit ups.
We challenge you to find someone who will motivate you more than your furry friend. That enthusiasm is without a doubt contagious – dog owners feel more confident that they can find time for exercise, regardless of other commitments. A dog is always ready and willing to go, plus an ever-eager four legged friend never cancels on you, never complains about being tired, and never backs down with lame excuses like bad weather.
If running's not a preferred part of your training programme no worries – dogs crave adventure, and many breeds are perfect hiking, biking, or even swimming buddies.
HERE'S THE BEST BIT – don't have a dog? You can still get in some canine workouts: adopt or foster your very own canine companion!
Here's how you can go about being part of the AWL NSW 'Tough Mutter' team:

Studies conducted around the world show that by means of simple and accessible strategies you can achieve your ideal weight.

Breakfast. According to the University of Tel Aviv, eating sweets like chocolate helps prevent cravings throughout the day and thus moderate the intake. Read more: 7 Tips To Lose Weight By The Holiday
Includes desserts only at breakfast.
Yogurt and fruits. A study published in "New England Journal of Medicine" revealed that this pair of foods generates greater satiety than even fruits and vegetables. Choose this option as a snack at noon. Read more: Basic rules of a healthy lifestyle
It's not just feeding!
Sleep. When sleep is restricted, the levels of ghrelin, the hormone that stimulates hunger, increases, which is why the University of Chicago study recommends sleeping for 5.5 to 8.5 hours. Assign an exclusive time and place to sleep.
Laugh Research from Vanderbilt University, showed that laughing up to 15 minutes a day makes the muscles work harder, increasing energy expenditure. Include some recreational activity.
Exercise At least 15 minutes of aerobic exercise each day improve your resistance, in addition to achieving the balance between caloric consumption and expenditure.
Always remember to seek the support of health specialists to learn more about your body and diet.
We invite you to reflect on the following: if weight gain or "extra kilos" took some time to occur, why do we think that weight loss will be almost instantaneous?
Do not risk your health with fad diets or miracle products, it is always best to start with small habits that will make the difference to lose weight without the diet.

Arrives in 3-7 Business Days
This book is intended to introduce and familiarize design, production, quality, and process engineers, and their managers to the importance and recent developments in concurrent engineering (CE) and design for manufacturing (DFM) of new products. CE and DFM are becoming an important element of global competitiveness in terms of achieving high-quality and low-cost products. The new product design and development life cycle has become the focus of many manufacturing companies as a road map to shortening new product introduction cycles, and to achieving a quick ramp-up of production volumes. Customer expectations have increased in demanding high-quality, functional, and user-friendly products. There is little time to waste in solving manufacturing problems or in redesigning products for ease of manufacture, since product life cycles have become very short because of technological breakthroughs or competitive pressures. Another important reason for the increased attention to DFM is that global products have developed into very opposing roles: either they are commodities, with very similar features, capabilities, and specifications; or they are very focused on a market niche. In the first case, the manufacturers are competing on cost and quality, and in the second they are in race for time to market. DFM could be a very important competitive weapon in either case, for lowering cost and increasing quality; and for increasing production ramp-up to mature volumes.

PJ Harvey in Perth
Perth Arts audience review
- Print page
- Email this
- Permalink
I was introduced to PJ Harvey by my partner. And after just two minutes of being at the concert hall, a guy and his wife pick up on our West Country English dulcet tones.
We talk about her music, and although the other bloke and I are not massive fans, we have great respect for her and her song writing.
After seeing PJ Harvey perform at festivals, I know this woman can hold her own with the boys. For research you only have to look at songs from the Desert sessions where she performs with the likes Mark Lanegan, and Josh Homme.
She manages to cleverly command the listener, demanding respect effortlessly against an ever-growing search of the divine in pop stardom. Each of PJ Harvey's albums develops its own unique style, never repeating a successful formula.
At the concert we were told by another fellow English usher that there would be no support band, and PJ Harvey would be starting at 8:30 sharp.
That said PJ walks in, stage left, dressed like an elfin goddess, with feathers in her hair like futuristic pigtails holding an auto harp. Kicking off with the opening track from her Mercury award winning album 'Let England Shake'.
Supported by her 3-piece band dressed like they should be sitting in old pub, all wearing white shirts and waist coats. The only thing missing from the picture would be a Lurcher dog. It felt like we had gone through a porthole back to the old country, and the concert hadn't even begun.
As the second song began, the star herself shows the audience she is only human by missing the start of the track. She looked over at the band smiling apologetically to start over. You soon got the sense that this was a tour solely for this album with songs like 'Last Living Rose', 'All of Everything'.
She strummed away on the auto harp like a mystic being, perfectly in sync and tone with her instrument. The drummer played the marching drum and used new tech bright orange brushes to create haunting sounds of days gone by. The two other band members swapped instruments between guitar, bass and piano. Singing songs as high in the mix as PJ at times, they worked as a strong team of musicians.
PJ did mix in a selected few of her early classics like 'Down By The Water'. It seemed that just after we got comfortable, she bid the Perth crowd good night. Yet there was never any chance that was truly the end. One day the person turning on the house lights will catch on to that, but we all cheered and clapped until she and the band came back for their well deserved encore. Introducing the rest of the band of John Parish, Mick Harvey, Jean-Marc Butty they went in for round two. 'Pocket Knife', 'Angelina'.
I can totally see why this album was so welcomed by her fans. Working with the likes of the producer Flood, and the good and bad history of old England. This tour really did have something unique and different about it. You weren't just seeing another rock show. Can't wait to see what she does next.

Abandoned Again
My sweet, affectionate, lovable, and most doting rescue kitty, Chance, is back at home base here at ELM. He bonded very well with his one owner who he would cuddle and sleep with. Because she has a slight disability and her spouse was needed to help with the care of Chance, he made the decision to give Chance back (all Chance needed was special food, no pills or special attention), despite the sobs of grief from his wife. Needless to say, I am heartbroken for the lovely lady who adored Chance, for Chance who wasn't even given a "Chance" and just knowing Chance is just an undeniably amazing 6-year-old; healthy, playful, stunning... Yesterday I said goodbye to my beautiful, sick girl and it hurts me so much that a spouse could do something so incredibly cruel to his wife. I only know the side I was given, but knowing his adoptive mom was sobbing as Chance was taken away was enough to fill my eyes with tears. I just don't understand. Chance is healthy. He is not high maintenance. So what if you have to scoop some poop and give a cat food and water... I'm doing my best not to be angry. I think really it's just my heart. I understand I/we will see more death, disease, and cruelty than most people but honestly, the past 6 months have been downright difficult. Please share Chance's photo? He's such a gorgeous and loving, declawed boy. He's 6 years old going on 6 months old. He deserves a real "Chance". One that will give him the time he deserves and not someone that will abandon him again. From being abandoned in an apartment building, to going to HAC fully blocked, to being sent out to be euthanized, then unexpectedly and suddenly safe into my hands... Please make a dream come true for my gorgeous boy.
I will admit, I will be extra strict this time around. I can't let Chance be abandoned again. He doesn't deserve what he's been through. He needs to be an only cat and he will be your knight in shining armor. Please help Chance find a REAL home. A home he deserves. His life matters.
Chance is neutered, declawed, up-to-date on his needles, dewormed, had a fecal flotation done (negative for parasites), only 6 years young, microchipped, not good with dogs or cats, and just a little bit shy. He still trusts despite all he's been through and loves like no other. He may be adopted for only $225. All his health records will come with him, along with full disclosure from my vet. Getting Chance fixed up and stabilized cost me over $480. I'm not looking for more money, I just want a home for the most amazing cat you will ever meet. Please fill out my online questionnaire if you're interested in meeting my boy Chance.
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen of PJ's Pets
I'm writing this in a blog as I'm so incredibly sickened about Cleo. Last night was night number three with no sleep whatsoever.
When I saw the original plea about Cleo from my colleague at All Paws, I called the PJ's Pets in Brampton at the BCC and spoke with a girl (I believe her name was Jessica) who claimed she works for a vet and has 9 years experience working with "pets". When Jessica declined my wish to purchase/hold this baby girl, I began to question the care she had been receiving and advised her that she is aiding in the decline of Cleo's health. She advised me that the OSPCA had been called so I let her know that I would also be calling to ensure they were indeed investigating the health of Cleo. My conversation with the OSPCA went well and my information taken down. I was told they had already received a couple calls to which I then apologized and let the operator know that I had just posted the kitten's information on my rescue page and I had over 600 followers. We chuckled a bit in an attempt to lighten the nature of the call and hung up on a pleasant note.
My post on Facebook is currently sitting at having reached over 14,000 people:
Which, to be perfectly honest, I couldn't care less as it's essentially done nothing for Cleo. I've been informed that Cleo is at the store manager's home. I have read the letter from the "vet" and PJ's posts hidden in the comments of the New Years post on their official page. I'm 43 years old and I can read through the lines. The letter does not state the kitten is healthy. The letter states the kitten is "not in poor health" and the vet merely guesses as to why she is losing weight.
Not only do I run my cat rescue, but I volunteer at my vet's office. I have seen snd nursed back to health more sick cats in the past 2 years than I care to admit. I've seen many cover-ups and heard several lies from all kinds of people including those we would trust the most. Reading this "veterinarian's" letter is more depressing than reassuring.
When one can't sleep, one digs. When one digs, this is what you find:
PJ's Pets "Chief Veterinarian" is Dr. Jeff. Dig a little deeper within the PJ's website and you'll find his full name: Dr. Jeff Rabinovitch, DVM
If you google his name, you will find his clinic and staff:
The veterinarian in the scribbled out letter PJ's Pets submitted discretely in their comments on their New Year's post, boasts of 10 years experience which would mean Dr. Jeff would not have written this, however, there are two more practicing DVMs at his clinic who are far younger than himself. I'll let the general public generate their own conclusion.
Still awake, and even more digging, one will easily find just how committed and dedicated Dr. Jeff is to helping out the OSPCA with his sponsorships.
I've done my best to remain professional when I've spoken in reference to this poor, sweet kitten. I'm well educated and am not easily conned. My goal with Cleo is to get her the proper vet care. It's been my experience that the colour of the gums are not the go to for checking a feline's hydration. To check for hydration, you typically pull up the skin over the shoulders and neck, give it a gentle twist and release to see how slow (or fast) the skin falls back onto the feline (you are checking the skin's elasticity). It's always been my understanding that the nose, gums, tongue, and footpads are usually the indicator of anemia if pale, in fact, a quick Google search confirms my belief:
So bearing this in mind, if a vet has been in practice for 10 years, one would hope the veterinarian would know how to check a cat for dehydration. If all this vet did was look at her gums there's a big problem here. Huge. Not to mention a kitten being stolen by a "hoarder" and being among 11 other cats with unknown health concerns, puts this kitten at a giant risk and she should have been placed in isolation for at least two weeks to ensure she was not exposed to anything. Many very contagious feline diseases like coccidia (a common intestinal parasite that is lethal in kittens and found by doing a $40 fecal flotation) can take up to 13 days to show up in a feline. Coccidia is not killed with regular deworming. It's treated with Sulfa. Giardia, another very common intestinal parasite requires treatment with Metronidazole and doesn't always show up in a flotation but will in a Giardia Eliza test. Something like ringworm (also quite common in rescues - I use rescues as an example as no one knows what kind of cats the "hoarder" may have had) can take up to THREE weeks before symptoms show up.
I don't want to come off as a know-it-all, but we've all seen the photos. The "vet" did not say the kitten was in "fine health" as Ms. Young quotes. The vet wrote the kitten is "not in poor health"... Then again, this is coming from a seasoned vet with 10 years of experience, a seasoned vet with 10 years of experience that doesn't know pink gums means Cleo is not anemic.
I'm not sure what else I can do at this point. In my eyes, it's very clear to me Cleo is not well. I pray she will pull through and beat the odds. If there is anything at all anyone is able to do, I beg you, please do so in a professional and non-violent manner. This kitten deserves a fighting chance. I don't want Cleo to be the reason why PJ's is shut down, they will be the key to their own undoing. What's important is Cleo's life matters and she deserves to know love.
My hands are tied. I would like to think PJ's would be more proactive in saving face by making more of an effort to prove Cleo is 100% healthy. A healthy kitten that isn't required to see the vet on the 12th. Am I the only one who wonders why a kitten "in fine health" as Ms. Young states, is required to see the vet again in a few days? Does anyone else wonder why, in his or her letter, this "vet" is merely GUESSING at why this kitten is losing weight instead of running tests that could in fact save her life?
Baby Cleo deserves so much more than she's getting. Any staff at PJ's Pets at the BCC that has seen Cleo and her condition is an accomplice to this awful cover up. Go ahead and ask me about any of my rescues. Not only will you see all my invoices for extensive vet care, you will also see my veterinarian's name and contact information. My vet, who has been in practice for approximately 30 years now and is known for her love and compassion of animals. I give full disclosure as I have nothing to hide and I'll add that I'm always open to suggestions and if I'm wrong, I will admit it and make it right and also be grateful for learning something new.
I will say I'm thankful for one thing. Baby Cleo is sheltered. Something I can't say for the long list of abandoned cats waiting for rescue. Some will have passed away last night due to the extreme cold and that breaks my heart as I've had to turn many away due to lack of funding and space. It is because of stores like PJ's that there are so many backyard breeders and a huge cat overpopulation. I'm sure many people aren't aware that even purebred cats find themselves at animal control. The proof is in the pudding. I liked it when I had blinders on. Now, I just don't sleep at night.
One final note. If Cleo is indeed as healthy as Ms. Young states, why aren't more current or updated photos being shown? A video perhaps? If my name was in the process of being severely tarnished and my staff was being threatened, you can bet I would move mountains to prove everyone wrong. But that's me. I'm honest and I tell it like it is. Sadly, I've dealt with enough liars in my past. PJ's could fix this so incredibly fast yet they remain evasive and defensive. Both are key indicators of hiding something, not protecting their staff. Protecting their staff would be giving documented proof that she is thriving, or, working with others outside of PJ's to calm a growing "outrage".
***Please also find it in your hearts to read and sign the following petition that has been set up in light of the events that have occurred with Cleo over the past couple days:
Nicole Paling, Owner of ELM Cat Rescue
PS: I wanted to add in another fine example of just how foolish people are at Christmas with their impulse buys and "breeders" and/or stores making it just too easy for absolutely anyone to get their hands on a pet they now feel is disposable. Society needs to wake up and smarten up. Pets are for life.
A mom of 3 that loves Jesus Christ, my children, cats, and of course, all that God created. Thank you for checking us out here at ELM!

Disease: Fusarium wilt
Hosts: Watermelon Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. & Nakai
Pathogen: Fusarium oxysporum Schlechtend. :Fr. f.sp. niveum
Kingdom Fungi; Division Ascomycota; Class Sordariomycetes; Order Hypocreales; Family Nectriaceae; Genus Fusarium; Species Fusarium oxysporum. Special form: niveum. Updated taxonomic placement can be found at www.cabi.org/dfb and www.uniprot.org/taxonomy/5507 and information pertaining to taxonomy and evolution of the species is reviewed in Gordon and Martyn (11).
Symptoms and Signs
Fusarium wilt symptoms often start with a graying of foliage, followed by a general foliar chlorosis and wilt (Fig. 1A) (16). In older plants Fusarium wilt is characterized by wilting of individual watermelon runners (Fig. 1B). The hallmark of Fusarium wilt is unilateral stem necrosis, which is easily visualized when runners or stems are sectioned (Fig. 1C). Vascular necrosis is most prevalent at the soil line in older portions of the stem cut longitudinally. Under wet conditions white to pink fungal hyphae may be visualized emerging from necrotic tissues (Fig. 1D). Symptoms vary with FON race (21,35), density of fungal propagules (25), environment (30), and host genotype (8). Severely diseased plants may die within 10 days following infection (30) while plants colonized to a lesser extent may not express symptoms for several weeks. Growth of infected plants may be stunted without obvious wilt symptoms under some environmental conditions.
Soil factors influence symptom development of Fusarium wilt in watermelon. Soil temperature plays a strong role in determining disease severity (13,31). Disease severity is greatest at soil temperatures between 25-27°C, and is greatly reduced above 27°C (23,31). In addition, disease severity is often increased with low soil pH, reduced soil moisture, and high soil nitrogen levels (12,14).
Greenhouse transplants may suffer from pre- or post-emergence damping off when infected with Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. niveum (FON) (15), either through infested growing media or contaminated seed (2,24,27). Death of seedlings is rapid under appropriate conditions, and seedlings may die before the production of true leaves (Fig. 2A). The hypocotyl of infected seedlings is often noticeably necrotic (Fig. 2B). Foliage may also become chlorotic and necrotic prior to the seedling developing wilt. Asymptomatic transplants infected with low levels of FON may play a role in the spread of Fusarium wilt to uninfested fields (personal observation).
In the field, symptoms typically occur within 3 to 4 weeks, and may progress in asymptomatic plants after fruit set. Symptomatic vines may be clustered in the field based on pathogen population densities in the soil or soil type. Plants affected late in the season may wilt and collapse. Typically, not all vines in an area will be affected. Some symptoms of Fusarium wilt are shared with other diseases of watermelon. Therefore, it is essential that the pathogen isolation and identification protocols described in the subsequent sections are used to confirm the presence of FON.
Host Range
Fusarium oxysporum as a species contains over 100 special forms which infect only a particular host (1,20). Consequently, FON is the special form that is pathogenic only on watermelon.
Fusarium wilt is well established in nearly all watermelon growing regions of the world, and has been reported in Africa, Australia, Asia, Europe, North America, and South America. Detailed distribution maps for the pathogen can be viewed at: www.cabi.org/dmpd. Distribution of the pathogen in the United States varies with race. Currently, four races of FON exist: races 0, 1, 2, and 3 (21,28,35). Race 3 is the most virulent race and causes wilt on watermelon lines resistant to other races of FON, but thus far has only been observed in Maryland (35). Race 2 is highly aggressive and has been isolated from wilted watermelon in Delaware (32), Indiana (7), Florida (22), Georgia (3), Maryland (32), Oklahoma (4), South Carolina (15), and Texas (21). Race 1 is the most widely distributed, and occurs throughout watermelon production areas of the United States (22). Traditionally, seeded, diploid-hybrid cultivars have good resistance to Race 1 (8,33). The majority of watermelons have excellent resistance against race 0, and the economic impacts of this race on watermelon are minor (22).
Pathogen Isolation
If Fusarium wilt is suspected on watermelon, symptomatic plants or runners are cross-sectioned near the base of the crown. Isolation from fresh or newly diseased tissues minimizes contamination from secondary colonizers and saprophytic fungi or bacteria. Contamination may be further reduced by removing the vine cortex. Samples are rinsed under cool, running tap water to remove adhering soil and debris. Stem sections 1 to 2 cm in length are then surface disinfested in 0.6 to 1.2% active sodium hypochlorite (chlorine bleach) for one to five minutes, followed by 1 or 2 rinses in sterile water (7,34). Sections are plated onto Komadas media, which is selective for F. oxysporum (17,20). Other semi-selective media for Fusarium, such as PCNB-based media or Malachite-green media may also be used (5,20); however, these media allow for other, non- Fusarium species to grow from tissues, which may complicate the identification of FON. Non-selective media such as PDA amended with streptomycin can also be used to isolate the pathogen, and may be useful if other wilt-inducing pathogens such as Rhizoctonia or Pythium are suspected (20). Plates are incubated at room temperature under 12-h fluorescent lighting. Within five days, mycelium is visible growing out of the vascular bundles in infected sections (Fig. 3A) and will grow slowly on the selective media. Fusarium colony morphology varies widely, but isolates are often creamy orange to purple in culture (Fig. 3B). On PDA, Fusarium will grow rapidly, and mycelium may be floccose or sparse, but often fuzzier in appearance than on Komadas medium (Fig. 3B).
To ensure isolate purity, dilution plating of microconidia onto Komadas medium should be done to produce multiple single spore individual colonies (20). Microconidia are produced by transferring 8 to 10, 1-cm × 1-cm blocks of pure cultures into 250-ml Erlenmeyer flasks containing 50 to 100 ml of Esposito and Fletcher broth (9), followed by mild agitation on a rotary shaker for 3 to 5 days. Microconidial suspensions are diluted in sterilized water, and aliquots spread onto replicate petri plates containing Komadas media. Alternatively, a plug of pure culture FON may be transferred to a test tube containing sterilized tap water and vortexed to release conidia into solution. Aliquots of conidia are spread onto petri plates as described above. Individual microconidia that germinate are identified under a microscope and a single hyphal tip is excised to produce purified cultures.
Pathogen Identification
For experienced researchers spore morphology is typically all that is required to identify F. oxysporum to species (20); however, there is no way to visually differentiate among the special forms or non-pathogenic F. oxysporum present in roots and crowns (18). Thus, screens should always be carried out to positively identify the pathogen. Single spore isolates should be transferred to carnation leaf agar (CLA) (20). On CLA and on infected tissues F. oxysporum will produce banana-shaped, often 3-septate macroconidia (Fig. 4A). Macroconidia are produced on sporodochia, which are often located at the center of the petri plate. Sporodochia may not be present in all isolates. Small black/purple sclerotia may also be present in some isolates. Small oval to kidney-shaped, often aseptate, microconidia (Fig. 4B) are produced on false heads on short monophialides formed on aerial mycelia. It may take over 4 weeks for some spore types and features to develop. Leslie and Summerell (20) provide an excellent diagnostic reference for Fusarium species (20).
Molecular approaches can be used to complement morphological identification, and should be used when possible, particularly if the researcher has not previously worked with Fusarium. Many factors can influence spore morphology of Fusarium spp., potentially resulting in incorrect species designations based solely off of morphological characters (10). Researchers have developed a publicly available database (FUSARIUM-ID) of the partial translation elongation factor 1-alpha (TEF) DNA sequences for Fusarium spp., including F. oxysporum. The use of this region alone often results in correct placement of an isolate to species (10). The TEF region is amplified through PCR, using the ef1/ef2 primer pair (10,29). Once amplification of the TEF is confirmed, the ~700bp DNA fragment is purified and sequenced in both directions to ensure high sequence quality. Sequences are then visually assessed using an appropriate DNA sequence editing program and compared to deposited sequences in the FUSARIUM-ID database using the basic local alignment search tool (BLAST) (10). Researchers that are trying to identify a new form species or race not previously identified in their area should use this technique to identify their Fusarium to species, and follow Kochs postulates to identify the special form. Morphological characterization then can be used to support the molecular data, increasing the reliability of the identification.
Pathogen Storage
A variety of methods can be used to store F. oxysporum. Freeze-drying or deep-freezing (-80°C) cultures can preserve cultures for long periods of time (20). However, lyophilizers, liquid nitrogen, and -80°C freezers may not be available to all researchers. A cheaper, more accessible method for long term storage of F. oxysporum involves preservation on filter paper, followed by subsequent storage at 4°C (6). Autoclaved filter paper is laid on the surface of PDA in a 9-cm-diameter petri plate. An agar plug of F. oxysporum is transferred from a pure culture to the center of the filter paper, covered, and allowed to incubate under a lightbank with 12-h lighting at room temperature. Once the fungus has grown within 1 cm of the filter paper edge, the filter is transferred aseptically to a sterile petri plate and allowed to dry for 2 to 3 days. Once dry, the filter paper is cut up axenically into small pieces ~0.5 cm × 0.5 cm, transferred to sterile, 2-ml screwtop vials, and stored at 4°C. Individual filter paper squares may be used to start new cultures for future experiments (6). We routinely utilize this method and have successfully revived FON cultures over 10 years old.
Pathogenicity Tests
Pathogenicity tests must be conducted to positively determine that the suspect isolate of F. oxysporum is pathogenic to watermelon. Basic pathogenicity screens should be carried out on highly susceptible cultivars (e.g., Sugar Baby or Black Diamond) (21). Seedlings are typically grown from seed in pasteurized or autoclaved sand, potting media, vermiculite, or perlite (19,21,34). Potting media containing microbes such as Trichoderma or Vesicular Arbuscular Mycorrhizal fungi should not be used as these microbes may reduce or prevent colonization by F. oxysporum. Once seedlings have developed 1 or 2 true leaves, they are removed from the media and carefully rinsed under cool running water. Seedlings that are older than the 2-leaf stage are less susceptible to FON and should not be used because susceptibility to FON decreases as seedlings age. A suspension of F. oxysporum microconidia is prepared using Esposito and Fletcher broth as described previously, and adjusted to a concentration of 1 × 105 or 1 × 106 spores / ml. The root systems for at least ten replicate seedlings are dipped in the spore suspension or the spore suspension is pipetted directly onto bare roots (19). Care should be taken to ensure that the length of time that the roots are dipped into the spore solution or the volume pippetted to roots is similar between tests and plants to reduce confounding factors. The seedlings are carefully transplanted into pots containing 4:1:1 (vol:vol:vol) sand:vermiculite:peat. Replicate seedlings with roots dipped in Esposito and Fletcher broth, which does not contain the isolate, should be used as negative controls. Plants should be transferred to a controlled environment at soil temperatures between 24 and 27°C. Soil temperatures above 30°C significantly reduce FON infection and may result in the researcher incorrectly concluding that an isolate is not FON. Symptoms of wilt will often appear within 10 to 15 days, but timing varies with environment, aggressiveness of the isolate and size of seedlings at inoculation. Alternatively, seeds can be sown directly into pots containing the sand:vermiculite:peat mix and spore suspensions (at least 50 ml) added a rate of at least 2000 to 3000 spores/g soil to ensure that the microconidia will come into contact with the root system. This method is simpler, but results may be more variable in comparison to the root-dipping technique. Re-isolation of the fungus from sections of diseased plants and plating of sections of control plants should be conducted as previously described onto Komadas medium to complete Kochs postulates. All pathogenicity tests should be carried out at least twice to confirm results.
Pathogen race can be determined on a set of watermelon lines that vary in their level of resistance to F. oxysporum f. sp niveum, although race determination can be challenging even for the most experienced of researchers. The differential set of plants should include Sugar Baby, Charlston Grey, Calhoun Grey, and PI-296341-FR (26). Based on this set, race 0 will only cause wilt on Sugar Baby, race 1 will wilt Sugar Baby and Charlston Grey, race 2 will wilt on Sugar Baby, Charlston Grey, and Calhoun Grey, and Race 3 will wilt all four differentials (35). Calhoun Grey is no longer readily available and may be substituted by Allsweet or Dixielee (33). The methods described in the previous section are used to prepare seedlings, media, and FON microconidia. All new isolates must be tested along with known isolates of races 0, 1, 2, and 3 as positive controls. As mentioned in the previous section, seedlings must be no older than the 2-leaf stage, care must be taken to ensure that soil temperatures are optimal for FON infection, and spore applications must be uniform between plants and experimental replications. A failure to follow these guidelines may result in incorrect race assessment. To ensure accurate results, a minimum of 10 seedlings should be tested per repetition and a minimum of three repetitions conducted for each isolate. Wilt incidence levels less than 33% should be considered resistant (35).

Tamales usually consist of a dough known as masa (made from corn), wrapped around some sort of filling, which can be either sweet or savory. You can stuff any number of healthy meats, vegetables and fruits into a tamale, but the dough is what disqualifies it as a Paleo food.
Why Avoid Corn
Corn is a starchy, nutrient-deficient grain that has no place in a diet full of meats and vegetables. The one thing masa has going for is that it's made from nixtamalized corn.
The Benefits of Nixtamalization
The nixtamalization process involves soaking corn in a mixture of water and lime (calcium hydroxide, not citrus) or ashes from burnt trees (which provides potassium hydroxide). You bring the mixture with the corn in it to a boil, reduce the heat, and let it soak for a while.
The process not only reduces the level of antinutrients found in corn, it also makes the corn more nutritious.
Despite these benefits, tamales are still not strictly Paleo. If you have a chance to eat quality tamales and feel like indulging, you could do much worse for a cheat meal.

Simplified lead management with Zapier and QuickBooks
The challenges of a start-up
To start small and to stay small is not the same thing. Every business starts small, initially with one person and an idea, and grows up from there. This growth is synonymous with more customers and more people to take care of them. But sometimes, a company prefers to grow more slowly. This implies that the team in place will also have to deal with a larger workload.
As a result, the daily tasks of your team will multiply drastically. Whether responding to emails, checking Slack or creating and managing contacts, client accounts, payments, etc. And once you're away, even for just a day, when you get back, your to-do list becomes almost insurmountable.
This way, the repetitive tasks associated with managing a growing customer base can quickly overwhelm you. Between creating leads in your CRM, tracking and capturing payments across multiple platforms… Not only will you be overwhelmed, but you'll also feel frustrated at not being able to accomplish everything within a day.
Automate your workflows with Zapier and QuickBooks
Though, you need to be able to focus in priority on sales rather than managing data entries. After all, no one starts a business hoping to process and copy daily data from one system to another.
By connecting Zapier and QuickBooks, you will significantly reduce your to-do list. For example, Zapier allows you to instantly create a new customer account in QuickBooks for each new lead registered. Zapier will also be able to find an existing customer and automatically associate an action or payment.
Before Zapier, creating and managing leads involved copying and pasting information from one form or appointment request into another system. And it was necessary to repeat the operation for each new lead.
Zapier and QuickBooks now directly handle lead management and update your customer accounts.
You got the point, it does not take much to be able to streamline your daily workload. And it's not because you're a small team that you should not enjoy it! So what are you waiting for?
