Why Is My Dog Itching and Scratching?
Allergies In Your Pet - Ron Hines DVM PhD 10/18/03
Next to fleas, allergies are the most common cause of itching and scratching in your pet. Fleas are dealt with in another article in this series.
Once you are certain that no fleas are present, it is likely that allergies are the cause of your pets scratching. In human beings, allergies are often expressed through the respiratory system. If you yourself have allergies, you are likely to have a stuffy nose, sneezing and watery eyes. This is because the histamines that humans produce are released primarily in the membranes of the respiratory system and eyes. In dogs, histamines are released primarily in the skin.
How Allergies Occur:
All chronic allergies are based on the body recognizing protein substances as foreign and trying to rid itself of them. Mold, dander, bacteria, pollen, flea saliva along with a host of other substances are allergens made up of proteins foreign to the body.
We will talk about pollen allergies for an example because they are so common. In this case pollen is called an allergen something the body recognizes as foreign. When a pets immune system is exposed to pollen for the first time, some pollen attaches to the linings of the nose and lungs.. The bodys immune system recognizes that pollen is not supposed to be there and, in response, produces antibodies against the pollen called immunoglobulins of the E class (IgE) and G class (allergen-specific IgG). This process is called sensitization. The IgE attaches to cells in the body called mast cells. These cells then leak and release histamines, bradykinins, and proteolytic enzymes, which cause the symptoms of allergy. In people large numbers of mast cells are located in the respiratory system. That is why our allergies usually have respiratory system symptoms. In dogs and cats, more mast cells are present in the skin. That is why dog and cat allergies usually cause signs associated with the skin and ears such as itching, hives and inflammation. This allergic disease is called atopy. Only 15% of pollen allergies in dogs and cats cause respiratory system signs, such as nasal stuffiness and sneezing.
Types of Allergies:
There are two types of allergies that cause dogs and cats to itch. Because susceptibility to allergies is inherited, it is quite common for pets to have both types.
Canine Inhalant Atopy
This is the type of allergy for which we used pollen as an example. It is the most common form of allergy in dogs and cats, making up over ninety percent of the cases I see. About nine percent of the canine population has this disease. Certain breeds are more susceptible to than others. Among the most susceptible are Shar-peis, Fox Terriers, Golden Retrievers, West Highland White Terriers, Scottish Terriers, Shih Tzus, Dalmatians, Lhasa Apsos, Boston Terriers and Labrador Retrievers. Cats of any breed can be affected. Dogs usually show their first signs of itching between 10 months and 4 years. If a dog does not have this condition by the time it is four years of age it is unlikely that it will ever have atopic skin disease. The disease often begins as a seasonal problem but after a number of years (or moving to a southern climate) the itching occurs year round. Some common allergens are flea saliva, tree, grass and shrub pollens, house dust, mold, dust mites, and feathers.
Flea saliva allergy is a special form of Atopy. Fleas survive by sucking blood from your pets. To get this blood they drill their mouthparts into the dog or cats skin and inject special anticoagulant saliva into the site to keep blood flowing while they engorge. This saliva is highly irritating to some dogs and cats. These pets do not only itch at the site of the flea bites, they itch all over. The pads of their feet are often itchy, puffy and inflamed. Areas between the toe pads as well as the ears often become infected with bacteria due to the pets constant licking and chewing. Because of the availability of excellent flea-control products such as Advantage and Frontline, I see less flea allergy than I used to.
Food Allergies:
Food allergy cases are less than fifteen percent as common as canine atopy but occur with about the same frequency as atopy in cats. The itching food allergies produce is constant throughout the year. Cocker Spaniels, West Highland White Terriers and Labrador Retrievers are particularly susceptible to food allergies. However, the majority of these breeds that have itching problems do not have food allergies. Dogs and cats can be any age older that a few months when signs first begin. Some common food allergies in dogs are to beef and pork, fish, dairy, eggs, corn, soy, wheat and preservatives and dyes in food and treats. But almost any diet ingredient can be involved. The most common allergens in cats are to fish, beef and chicken.
Canine Atopy and food allergies are not visually distinguishable because the signs of both diseases are the same. The most common sign of the conditions is constant itching, scratching and licking. Dogs will often rub on objects. The degree of discomfort the pet undergoes is partly dependent on its temperament. High strung breeds and very active pets do severe damage to their skin. The face, lumbar area at the base of the tail (particularly if fleas are the cause) ears and paws show the most damage. In severe cases the skin of the whole body is inflamed and covered in crusts while the hair coat is thin and broken. In mild cases the pets only lick these areas, discoloring light hair coats with salivary stain. When fleas are the problem, small pepper-like granules are present over the neck or in the dorsolumbar area. These specks of digested blood or flea dirt will bleed a rust-colored trail if moved to white tissue paper and wetted with water
As the dog or cat scratches, it destroys the outer waxy layer of the skin. This allows bacteria and mold to enter the skin and causes a musty, oily skin condition called seborrhea. Because ears are covered with skin, ear canal redness, odor and inflammation are common in canine atopy. Sometimes ear problems are the only sign present. When this is the case, we treat the ears with specific antibiotic, antifungal, corticosteroid preparations but must treat the whole dog with medications as well.
Cats develop a condition called milliary dermatitis in which the surface of the back and scruff of the neck are covered with bumps and scabs. Allergic cats sometimes develop another condition called eosinophilic granuloma complex in which ulcers form on the lips, tongue and surface of the body. After months and years of scratching, the skin of the inner thighs and flank often becomes thickened and blackish. This condition is called acanthosis nigricans.
Damaged skin due to the pets scratching often leads to superficial staphylococcus bacterial infections (pyoderma) and infection with the yeast, Malassezia. Mild bacterial conjunctivitis or eye infections with greenish matter at the inner corner of the eye are common. It is important to realize that although a bacterial or fungus condition is present and may need treatment, the root of the problem is allergic dermatitis. In very severe cases of skin allergy, the superficial lymph nodes of the body enlarge due to secondary skin infections.
Diagnosis of Allergic Skin Problems:
The clinical diagnosis of allergic dermatitis is one of exclusion of other causes of skin disease. I usually do skin scrapings when pets with this condition are presented to me for the first time. Through skin scrapings, I try to rule out mange as a cause of the pets problems and locate bacteria and fungi. If I cannot rule out mange, if the dogs history suggests it might be mange, or other members of the household are itching, I may put the pet on a test dose of a safe anti mange medicine called ivermectin. I next try to rule out fleas as the source of the problem. Some dogs are so good at grooming that no fleas remain on them when they are examined. Even when I cannot locate fleas on the pet I can often locate flea dirt. In some of these pets the presence of tapeworms is the only indication of fleas or I may find fleas on another household pet, which does not have skin problems.
There are other signs that the problem may be allergic. Typically atopy occurs in dogs between one and three years of age. This makes the diagnosis of allergies in puppies and older dogs less likely. The first two or three years that the condition exists it is often seasonal occurring only in the spring and summer months. Flea-related allergies tend to subside after the first few freezes of the winter. Golden retrievers and arctic breeds with thick oily hair are susceptible to a special form of dermatitis called hot spots or acute pyotraumatic dermatitis. In these cases the dogs suddenly become extremely itchy over a small area. They are so troubled that they pull out the fur of this area and infect it through chewing in a matter of hours. The itching sensation departs rapidly thereafter -with or without treatment. It is not known if they represent a true form of allergy. Another form of the disease is called acral lick dermatitis. In these cases a small area of skin itches over an extended period. Licking leads to a well-defined small area of raw skin, scarring and bacterial infection.
I try to learn if the parents of the dog or cat or its brothers and sisters also have itchy skin disease. Canine atopy as well as food allergies runs in families.
In diagnosing food allergies I look for uniform involvement of the skin over the entire body. I rarely find that diarrhea accompanies food allergies. Often the best way to rule out food allergies is to put the pet on a sixty to ninety day trial eating a hypoallergenic diet exclusively. Many hypoallergenic diets are available. Until recently these diets relied on novel protein sources such as lamb, venison duck or fish. The problem is that with time, pets eventually became allergic to these diets too. Now two brands of hypoallergenic diets are available that use heat and hydrolysis to break food proteins into a size too small to cause allergies (less than 10,000 daltons). The biggest problem with these diets is that some pets wont eat them.
I will usually examine pets with skin disease in a darkened room with an ultraviolet lamp. Hairs that glow are diagnostic for ringworm. Ringworm is almost never itchy and glowing hairs are not found in cases of allergic skin disease.
I will often encounter Malassezia yeast in skin scrapings of dogs with itchy skin. This fungus is a normal inhabits the skin of dogs. It only becomes a problem when the pet has an underlying problem such as allergic skin disease. Antifungal shampoos are quite helpful in controlling it.
As in humans, allergy testing can be helpful in diagnosing allergic skin disease. Two forms of allergy testing are available. The easiest and most commonly performed test in animal hospitals is called the RAST test. This test, which is performed on a blood sample from your pet, stands for radioallergosorbent test. In the test, the presence of IgE antibodies to specific antigens is determined by a central laboratory. Pets must not have had corticosteroids or antihistamines administered for thirty days prior to testing. The problem with this test is its high number of false positives. If the test determines that a pet is not allergic to an antigen that is probably correct. But positive reactions often turn out to be wrong. If the RAST test is used, the central laboratory will prepare an antigen extract, which can be injected into the pets skin periodically to decrease the effects of allergies.
A more reliable test is an intradermal skin test. Before the test is administered, the pet is taken off all corticosteroid, tranquilizing or antihistamine medications for 30-60 days. In this test, small amounts of various allergens are injected into the skin. The entire side of the pet must be shaven to perform this test. Then the injection sites are monitored over an hours period to judge the degree of redness and swelling at each site. A list of offending antigens is used to prepare an allergen extract, which is injected periodically into the pet. With time and success, these injections lessen the pets allergies to these allergens. Because a high degree of skill is necessary in giving and interpreting the results of this test, veterinary dermatologists usually perform it.
Occasionally, when I am uncertain if the problem is a routine case of allergy, I will take a biopsy specimen of the skin involved and send it to a pathologist for evaluation and diagnosis. This can rule out the presence of other disease such as lupus. Blood tests may detect elevated levels of eosinophiles, which occasionally also occur in allergic skin disease.
Treatment of Allergic Skin Disease:
It is next to impossible to avoid all the environmental allergens that plague allergy-prone dogs and cats. The exceptions are pets that are chiefly bothered by fleas. I enforce strict flea control even if I am uncertain that fleas are present. Many dogs and cats are cured by this simple task alone.
Approximately one in twenty of my clients elect to undergo skin testing and desensitization of their pets. This figure differs from practice to practice. The procedure takes a bit over a year to show results. Dermatologists argue for the procedure pointing out, correctly so, that even if desensitization does not cure the pets, it may lower the dose of corticosteroids they require later in the disease. Skin testing also identifies the allergens and perhaps some of them can be avoided or eliminated from the pets environment. The procedure is extensive, expensive, and requires a life-long commitment to frequent injections. Most owners learn to give these injections themselves.
Medicines of the cortisone class are effective and dramatic in controlling the symptoms of allergic skin disease. The problem is that this class of drugs has substantial and serious side effects when given in high doses or over extended periods of time. My challenge is to treat these pets as long as I can without the use of these steroids. To do so, I use medications that are effective but less dramatically so.
Medicated Shampoos
Medicated shampoos are quite soothing to inflamed skin and lessen itching. I begin using clear tar preparations such as lye tar shampoos. If these are not adequate, I dispense selenium sulfide or benzyl peroxide shampoos. Benzyl peroxide is quite effective in eliminating secondary bacterial infections in these cases. Some pets are helped by oatmeal and antihistamine shampoos. With all these products, the skin should first be cleansed with soapless soaps and then the medicated product massaged in and allowed a long contact period with the skin the longer the better. Weekly shampooing along with flea control is often sufficient for a number of years. Some pets cannot tolerate weekly bathing as it dries out their skin too much. Use of a skin conditioning rinse helps in some cases. Also, use temperate, not hot water, when you bath your pets.
Antihistamines and tranquilizers
Antihistamines block the release of histamines by mast cells. They are quite helpful to some pets. Unfortunately, the effects are not as dramatic as in humans. Ciproheptadine (0.15-0.5mg/lb twice a day), hydroxyzine (0.25-0.5mg/lb) or even OTC Chlorpheniramine maleate are effective in lessening symptoms in some dogs and cats. Many antihistamines have a calming effect in dogs. I have had cat owners discontinue their use because they did not like personality changes in their cats while on these medications. Some antihistamines can be applied in shampoo form. Some dogs do well when given mild tranquilizers such as acepromazine at 0.25mg/ pound.
Many owners are worried when we suggest that their pets receive measured doses of corticosteroids to treat stubborn allergy cases. They should not be. These drugs have nearly miraculous powers in both human and animal medicine. They just should not be over used. Some drugs of the cortisone class are prednisolone, prednisone, triamcinolone, dexamethasone, beclomethasone, and betamethasone. Often I use so little of these drugs that a bit of itching persists but at a tolerable level. I usually give prednisolone or prednisone at 0.38mg per pound of body weight two or three times a week. At this low dose I do not encounter noticeable side effects. There will often be a point, many years into the disease, when higher cortisone doses are required. Combining topical medications, antihistamines, desensitization and cortisone let us keep the cortisone dose as low as possible. I do not feel that I have ever used cortisone to an extent that an allergic pets life was shortened although some have suffered weight gain. I do know that the use of these drugs has greatly improved the quality of many pets lives. Whenever possible, the use of long acting corticosteroids such as methylprednisolone acetate should be limited to a single yearly injection of 1.25mg/lb body weight. and oral forms of corticosteroids used instead. You may notice that your pet drinks more and urinates more on these medications. If they are over used a disease called Cushings Syndrome or hyperadrenocorticism can result (see article on that subject).
Dogs that are presented to me with severe bacterial skin infections subsequent to self- trauma (scratching) need a two-week course of antibiotics to clear up the infection. I like to use a broad-spectrum antibiotic such as one of the fluroquinolones (Batryl) or a potentiated cephalosporin such as Clavamox (Augmentin). I begin antihistamines and medicated shampoos in these cases immediately but I delay any corticosteroids until the skin has healed. If yeasts are an important component of the problem I treat them with ketaconazole shampoos.
Food Supplements
There are a very large number of neutraceutical products marketed for allergic skin disease. Many of them have never been scientifically tested. The best that can be said of many of these products is that they can do no harm. When I recommend these products, I usually suggest one that combines omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Many of these products also contain zinc. Some clients find them beneficial.
Your Pets Future:
Allergic dermatitis is a life long condition. Unless the problem is solely fleas there are no cures. Luckily it is not a life threatening or a life shortening condition and it can be managed with a minimum of inconvenience. Often, there will be periods of a year or more when the disease is not as severe and needs less or no medications. When a family moves the disease is often left behind. Unfortunately not too much time passes at their new location before the pet becomes allergic to new allergens. Because this is an inherited trait, dogs with this disease should never be bred. The fact that so many dogs suffer from allergic skin disease shows that many AKC and novice breeders disregard this advice.

BERLIN — BARELY five feet tall, Claudia Dantschke was dwarfed by the lectern when she spoke at a recent gathering of German experts on Islam, its challenges to democracy and especially the luring of teenagers from Europe to join the war in Syria.
But that certainly did not stop Ms. Dantschke from being heard. Stocky, plainly dressed, she is a breathless fountain of words, one of Germany's most prominent experts on its roughly four million Muslims, yet one who keeps her activities and research so firmly anchored in the community that she says she is rarely viewed as a threat.
Ms. Dantschke, 51, has counseled scores of families trying to prevent their sons and even some of their daughters from embarking on the path to jihad with extremist Muslim groups in Syria. The war is no abstraction in Germany, just a drive of a day or two away. That is particularly true for Turks born and raised here, who need no passport and no interpreter to enter Turkey and then hop over the border.
Officially, at least 320 young men from Germany have made their way to the war, though Ms. Dantschke thinks the number is closer to 500. About 20 to 25 of them, including one just 16 years old, have been killed, and around 100 have returned, officials say. Although Ms. Dantschke believes that only about 15 of those have real battlefield experience, the authorities fear what they might do with any skills they picked up.
Ms. Dantschke has gained a growing role in Germany's response because she was one of the first to raise alarms about the threat of radical Islam — in the 1990s, when few here even acknowledged Turkish "guest workers" as permanent residents. "We experienced hate propaganda against other groups in the population, intimidation of advertisers and violence and lack of transparency about organizational ties and positions of some Turkish Islamic groups," she said.
Her life is woven from random threads of recent history: an upbringing in Communist East Germany that fostered a thirst for things foreign; a rigorous education as an Arabist; a jolt, with Germany's reunification, from secure state employment to joblessness; a rare entree into Berlin's Turkish community; two decades of fighting first right-wing and then Islamic extremism.
"I got to know West Germany through the Turks," Ms. Dantschke said in a recent interview, noting that neither Turks nor East Germans knew West German ways.
The outcome is someone who knows the often insular Turkish and Muslim communities here from the inside, but also sets great store by family, perhaps from an early life of inward resistance in her family to Communism.
Puffing on one of her frequent cigarettes, she smiled at the recollection. "I know what it is like to live in a dictatorship," she said.
ONCE, her father talked of seeing beggars on a business trip to the Soviet Union. The teenage Ms. Dantschke refused to believe it. Later, she herself saw food ration cards in the Russian city of Novosibirsk. "He was trying to teach me reality," she said. "And I believed the school and state indoctrination more than my parents."
Using methods originally devised to wean young East Germans off far-right ideologies, Ms. Dantschke tries to combat Islamists' appeal to German youths, an attraction that has intensified over the past year. Recruiters give away Qurans or proselytize as fundamentalist Salafi preachers. Jihadis post German-language videos extolling their new life. Ms. Dantschke monitors it all.
"The family is really the only window out of this circle," said Ms. Dantschke, who has written several handbooks and essays on Salafi beliefs, the radicalization of youths and extreme Islamic groups. "If you leave the family alone, then radicalizations have free space."
Families must be prepared to stick with her program for years, she said, citing the experience of reclaiming young people from the far right. Of the more than 500 youths who have gone through the program, she said, only four have regressed.
One tough message to deliver, she said, is telling a mother or father that the serene behavior that sets in when a drifting teenager first finds radical Islam is no cause for joy.
Next, Ms. Dantschke warned, the child often insists on regular prayer, or conventional dress and diet for the family. If less religious parents object, they only confirm the predictions of the teenager's new Islamic mentors, reinforcing their credibility.
From the 1990s until just recently, Ms. Dantschke lived, by her own description and that of friends, hand-to-mouth, working as a journalist and translator, or on social projects that teetered from one government or foundation handout to the next.
That made her — well before the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, a plot hatched in part in Germany — a "deep connoisseur" of Muslim groups, said Bernd Wagner, a criminologist who is also from East Germany. By 2001, he had engaged Ms. Dantschke to combat right-wing extremism at his Center for Democratic Culture in Berlin, where she now runs her program, Hayat.
THE greater recognition of the need to integrate Muslims into German society means that Ms. Dantschke's voice now carries to the state and federal governments, and to the national news media.
She was born in 1963 in Leipzig, two years after the raising of the Berlin Wall. Her mother, a nurse, had been abandoned by her husband, a cartographer who fled to the West. Ms. Dantschke's father, an engineer, fell for the deserted woman. Claudia arrived, but her parents never formally married.
Like many in the East, including Chancellor Angela Merkel, nine years her senior, the young Claudia plotted from age 12 a path that might yield a job with the coveted perk of foreign travel. Her 13th birthday present, a photo book of New York City, expensive at 27 East German marks, fired her ambitions even more. She devoured it thousands of times.
Original plans to study French or Spanish led eventually to Arabic, and after graduation from college in 1985, she took a job with the state news agency ADN on its Arabic desk. That came with another perk, a Berlin apartment, which she finally landed months before the Wall fell in November 1989, and still retains.
Reunification in October 1990 found her jobless. She stumbled into travel journalism for a Turkish travel agency in West Berlin. The owners had a slot on local cable television, and asked Ms. Dantschke to fill it. "I had no idea about TV," she said. "Next day, I was on camera."
In the summer of 1992, that job led her to Ali Yildirim, then the Berlin bureau chief for the Turkish newspaper Milliyet, who noticed that she was covering the Turkish community with a fresh eye. "I asked how much she got," he said. "She said, 'Nothing.' I said, 'I'll double that.' "
She and Mr. Yildirim remain friends, but after years of toil for little or no pay, she gave priority to her social work.
"I am content," she said. In stark contrast to the way she mapped out life in East Germany, "I never think about tomorrow," she added. "Something has always turned up."
Including, finally, that foreign travel.
Last year, she made it to New York. "I kept saying: 'I was never here. Why does it feel so familiar?' Then I realized, through that book, I was always here." The next goal is to return, by sea.
"But only on a cargo boat," she said. "Not one of those luxury liners."

Why Your Degree Title is Wrong
Students in colleges today put so much emphasis on their degree titles, on their specialty. Now, I firmly believe that to be great at what you do (and I believe anything less than great isn't worth doing), you do have to specialize, in a sense. But I have a serious problem with the structure degree […]
Drop the Needle / Telemann Canonic Sonata
Here's a little something I've been playing around with: Telemann's Canonic Sonata No. 1, movement 3. A duet, both parts played by me. Many thanks to Mike Forbes for doing these transcriptions. Available on the Tuba-Euphonium Press website.
Sightreading Sundays / Aug. 26
This week is back to basics. Simple rhythms and all in the diatonic key. This should help younger students especially to feel more comfortable playing different "chunks" of a scale (not always starting on the tonic note). Download the Sightreading Sundays PDFs here.
Today in Music / August 20
On this day in 1882, the world heard the first performance of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture, in Moscow. It was commissioned by Tsar Alexander II for performance at Cathedral of Christ the Saviour. The music is a retelling of the invasion of Napoleon's French Allied Army into Russia. The Overture's score calls for the firing of […]
What Music Looks Like / A Cellist. And Cows.
This certainly demonstrates the power of music, no? A cellist plays and a group of cows walks across the field to get closer, to listen. And it's not just classical—cows like jazz too. Some scientists suggest that music boosts the milk output of dairy cows. We certainly know it boosts the output of students. […]
What Others Say / Miles Davis
Sometimes you have to play a long time to be able to play like yourself. —Miles Davis, jazz trumpeter, bandleader, composer

Austin, Texas. You've probably heard a lot about us lately. Seems we've been making the news…and in a good way! Universally known as the "Live Music Capital of the World," Austin holds live music events pretty much anywhere you can fit. Be it on downtown's lively 6th Street District, to Austin City Limits or over at The Long Center, Austin's music scene is unrivaled.
Austin's unofficial motto is "Keep Austin Weird," which means "We're not just an ordinary town…we're different!" and different, for sure. Come celebrate "Eeyore's Birthday Party" with us or take in Austin's famous "Bat Bridge" where thousands of bats take flight each evening and return each morn. Yes, Austin is a little different, but when adding a laid-back college town, a diverse culture and rich heritage you get ideas from all walks of life.
But Austin's not just about fun…we mean business, too!
Dell, IBM, Samsung, AMD, Freescale, National Instruments are all major employers in the Austin area. Austin is also the home to the University of Texas providing local employers with an educated workforce year after year and the State Capital is located in Austin as well.
Historically in cities where there is an abundance of high-tech and government jobs those cities are victims of boom and bust cycles and housing affordability is a frequent problem. Not so Austin. While the quality of living is high in Austin, the median price for an existing single-family home in 2010 was $182,000 and Austin is consistently rated one of the best in the Cost of Living Index published by the Council for Community & Economic Research.
Do you enjoy the outdoors? We love the outdoors! Austin rests on the banks of Lady Bird Lake, has more than 251 parks, 15 preserves, and 40 greenbelts all on 19,000 acres. Nearby Lake Travis is home to every sort of water sport available and covers 270 miles of shoreline.
Austin has increasingly become the #1 destination city in the country. A thriving economy and a neighborly community all come to form what we call home…Austin, Texas.

Focus Economics reported that India's GDP grew from 7.2% in 2014 to 7.6% in 2015, which is very good news for entrepreneurs. Due to measures improving education, health and standard of living the middle class is expanding leading to excellent development in the private sector. Almost 60% of the Indian economy relies on private consumption so investors can benefit from this booming market.
Questions to ask yourself
Of course, the basic steps for purchasing an existing business are pretty much the same all over the world because it's only logical that you prepare yourself for it.
What are my strengths?
Go to people who know you well and ask them to define your strong and weak points. Check your past work and academic records to build a personal profile that tells you which business role or category would suit you.
Have I got the resources?
You cannot proceed without sufficient funds so first you need to secure them. Make a rough estimate of business values in the market to help you gather a suitable amount.
Do I have professional support?
You will need to hire an accountant, lawyer, banker, insurance expert and business broker to get started with your project.
Is it worth the effort?
Purchasing an existing business may be risky so make sure you have something to fall back on if the unexpected happens and you face loss.
Acquiring an existing business in India
Now that you are in the right frame of mind to buy a business, move to the next stage.
Seller's motivation
It may sound strange but you must understand the reason why the business is on the market. If it is a failure then it will probably not make a good investment unless you are Rumplestiltskin.
Is it something you love doing?
Passion is half of success when it comes to business because it is the ultimate drive for an entrepreneur. Without being invested in your business heart and soul, you will not be able to generate new ideas and it will become stagnant.
Market forecast
Even if your interest matches, it might not be the best time to purchase that business due to low stocks or some other issue. Sometimes demand for a product/ service suddenly falls so you need to be patient then. Wait for the perfect market conditions to make an offer. For instance, restaurants, fashion stores, beauty salons and IT companies are thriving in India this year.
Financial records
The most important step is checking the company's financial state since its establishment particularly recent performance. This will give you an idea of its growth and future potential. Don't just look at the documents, make it a point to visit the location and survey the hardware, software and management.
Offer and negotiation
When you are satisfied with the company's market position, extend an offer to the seller. Tim Ferriss explained how Indians are masters at negotiation so beware. They cleverly make a proposition that gives them maximum profit and play mind games. It is a tactic that ensures no one cheats them of their rights so always be fair and honest in your dealings with Indians.
Letter of Intent and closing
A non-binding agreement like a Letter of Intent (LOI) is always better because it allows greater freedom to scrutinize the company before Due Diligence and signing the final documents.

Interview with Jane Espenson & New Fiction at SpaceWesterns.com
Interview with Jane Espenson

We feel honored not only to have been on Jane Espenson's Blog Tour, not only to have had Jane as a judge for our Space Western Limerick Contest, and not only to have been visited twice by Jane during the entire event, but also to have been chosen as the final destination to round out her blog tour: with this interview. — ed.

The Clone Wrangler's Bride

The majority of the stories in Space Western fiction are male dominated or from a male point-of-view. I've put out a call for more female oriented work, and have received some response. Here's a quirky little tale that's neither here nor there, and yet both places at once. — ed. N.E. Lilly

This rare genetic disease causes a wide range of physical and cognitive symptoms.
Prader-Willi syndrome is a rare, congenital (present at birth) disease.
It affects multiple systems throughout the body, resulting in various physical, neurological, cognitive, endocrine (hormonal), and behavioral issues.
The syndrome affects 1 in every 15,000 to 25,000 people across the globe, according to the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD).
It affects males and females equally, and there are no known risk factors for the syndrome, since the genetic error that causes it occurs at random.
Prader-Willi syndrome develops from genetic changes to a region of chromosome 15 called the Prader-Willi critical region (PWCR).
You inherit one copy of this chromosome from your mother, and one from your father. Some genes in the PWCR are only turned on — or active — in the paternal copy of the chromosome.
The syndrome is ultimately the result of a loss of function (or expression) of these paternally contributed genes.
There are three known mechanisms that cause this lack of gene expression, according to a 2012 report in the journal Genetics in Medicine.
Between 65 and 75 percent of Prader-Willi syndrome cases arise from the deletion of genes in the paternal PWCR, according to the report.
Another 20 to 30 percent of cases develop due to a phenomenon called maternal uniparental disomy, in which a person has two maternal copies, and no paternal copy, of chromosome 15.
Finally, 1 to 3 percent of cases are the result of a so-called imprinting defect that causes the paternal PWCR genes to be inactive (like the maternal genes).
Low muscle tone, or hypotonia, in infancy characterizes nearly all cases of Prader-Willi syndrome, according to the 2012 report.
This can cause:
Additionally, 90 to 100 percent of infants with the syndrome have delayed motor development, requiring about twice as long to achieve developmental milestones.
Language-related delays are also common.
Later in childhood, other symptoms will develop, including:
Certain physical features are also common among people with Prader-Willi syndrome, such as short stature, unusually small hands and feet, fair skin and hair, and certain facial characteristics, including a triangular mouth, almond-shaped eyes, and a narrow forehead.
These symptoms may be suggestive of the syndrome, but a diagnosis requires genetics tests (using blood samples), which can detect Prader-Willi syndrome in over 99 percent of people tested, according to the Genetics in Medicine report.
There is no cure for Prader-Willi syndrome, but several treatment options can help manage the various symptoms it causes.
Growth hormones approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) can help treat hypotonia and related issues by improving physical strength and muscle mass, increasing bone mineral density, and correcting stature deficiencies.
Weight management through strict supervision of food intake during childhood is also important for people with the syndrome, since obesity is a common issue.
Other possible treatments include:
If the condition isn't properly monitored and treated, people with Prader-Willi syndrome may develop one or more severe complications, including type 2 diabetes, congestive heart failure, and osteoporosis or other bone issues.

As the days tick by, E3 2019 gets closer. Even though Sony has decided to forgo a press conference this year, plenty of other companies will be putting on a presentation to announce what games are coming in 2019 and beyond.
Microsoft has a big show planned, and there are rumors the company will reveal its next-gen Xbox console. Which isn't to say Microsoft is completely ignoring the Xbox One. On the contrary, quite a few of the games already confirmed to be at E3 2019 will be making their way onto Xbox One. We've compiled the full list below, and will continue to update it as additional titles are announced prior to and during E3.
Other than it's rumored next-gen console, Microsoft's biggest planned E3 presentation (based solely on what's been announced) is Halo Infinite. The sixth mainline game in the franchise, Halo Infinite was first teased during E3 2018. A year later, Halo Infinite game director Chris Lee is scheduled to discuss more details about the game during E3 2019. Little is currently known about what Lee plans on discussing, but 343 Industries boss Bonnie Ross has teased one of the topics will be Halo Infinite's use of the studio's new SlipSpace engine and what it's capable of from a technical standpoint. Halo Infinite has been described as a "spiritual reboot" to the Halo series. The game might have more RPG mechanics than its predecessors too, and its multiplayer and single-player may release separately.
Though they haven't been confirmed for E3 2019, several other Xbox One console exclusives could show up during the show. Gears 5, Battletoads, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Sea of Solitude, Session, and Tunic (all of which were showcased during E3 2018) are all scheduled to release in 2019. Chances are some–if not all–will be at E3 this year.
Even if none of those games show up at E3 this year though, plenty of other games coming to Xbox One are. Some, like Respawn's Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Ubisoft's Ghost Recon Breakpoint, are already scheduled to release this year, so chances are we're getting gameplay trailers. Others, like Infinity Ward's Call of Duty, still haven't even been officially revealed, so chances are E3 will be used to announce them.
All Xbox One Games Confirmed For E3 2019
- Anthem (EA Play)
- Apex Legends
- Battlefield V (EA Play)
- Bee Simulator
- Borderlands 3
- Call of Duty 2019
- Cyberpunk 2077
- Doom Eternal
- Dying Light 2
- Fortnite (Summer Block Party)

Scrap paper, waste fabrics, wood scraps have all been recycled, and the income from the sales of these products made the school of elementary students more beautiful. The Social Responsibility Project Group, consisting of faculty members and students of Faculty of Fine Arts and Design, Izmir University of Economics, redesigned the training room at Izmir – Menderes Sancaklı Ahmetçik Elementary School. Students, with their brand new training room, started the new academic year excitedly.
'From zone cleaning to art'
Dr. Didem Kan-Kılıç, Lecturer, IUE Department of Interior Architecture and Environmental Design, Faculty of Fine Arts and Design, reported that faculty members and students did a zone cleaning last February and made notebooks, necklaces, pencil holders, lambs, dolls, bags out of waste materials they obtained from 'zone' cleaning. Kılıç said, "We believe that the success of social responsibility projects needs to conform to the real needs of the society. With that in mind, we did a zone cleaning within the faculty building. We started out collecting waste materials from the project left overs and designed new products with recyclable materials. Our designs were exhibited at the "Higher Consciousness – Acquisition" titled exhibition under the name of 'Collective Movement' at Ahmed Adnan Saygun Art Center. After the exhibition, we held a sales event. The funds from that event was used to design a training room for the 15-classroom elementary school at Sancaklı Village in Menderes."
'Presenting their energy and skills to the society'
Kılıç stated that Faculty Members İpek Kaştaş Uzun, Selin Gülden, and students Anıl Nayır, Gözay Tepekesici, Fatih Kurt, and Ömer Akkaş participated in the project group and that they were very happy to have focused their energy and skills on social designs.

With summer fast approaching and the long school holidays many people have already booked a nice holiday for a couple of weeks. Then the alarm bells go and they you suddenly realise that they need someone to look after the dog
Essentially you have three options a petsitter, friends or family or boarding
If you decide to go down the boarding route then below are a few tips to take into consideration
- When looking for a dog walker, pet sitter or boarding place then it is best to try and find someone that has been recommended to you either by your dog trainer, a fellow dog owner, a friend or even a dog sitter who cannot help you at that time. One place to start looking is narps uk
- Make sure that both you and your dog meet the person and that your k9 friend likes them
- If possible make sure as well as the mobile number you have a landline number (I know not everyone has a land line now days). It is also good to have an address. If they are not willing to give it to you then please think carefully about employing that person.
- Make sure you ask to see there insurance. .At the end of the day once the dog is in their care they are liable if your dog causes an accident or injures someone.
- Don't be afraid to ask for references and follow them up
- Make sure that when your dog is in their care that they put I.D. tags with their mobile number on, name, house number and postcode.
- Do ask where your dog will be sleeping etc
- Don't be afraid to ask as many questions as you want to. After all, you need to feel happy and relaxed that your four legged friend is going to be treated as one of the family.
- Ideally you should provide the food as a sudden change can cause upset stomachs.
- Make sure that your dogs vaccinations are up to date – including Kennel Cough.
- Make sure that the dog sitter has got contact numbers for you abroad as well as a contact in England.
- In the event of an emergency your sitter will need to go straight to a vet to get treatment. Discuss this possibility. If vets fees are incurred whilst you are away think about how this can be managed.

Hand-dyed goods, due to the different conditions of the leather surface, and some color drop or unevenness are normal. However, due to the characteristics of vegetable-tanned cow leather, the color will reduce its color saturation due to the use of time. Personal use status has its own taste and characteristics. 3. Each product is handmade, and the working day is about 3-7 days. The details of the product can be discussed before ordering. Because it is a customized product, it will not accept returns. 4. If it is used frequently, because the hands have grease, it is actually helping to maintain the leather goods. Please place the leather goods in a dry and ventilated place and perform maintenance regularly (about once or twice a month). 5. Leather is a new material regardless of how long it has been used. If you take good care of it, you can accompany you for a long time.

DNA Spectrum's Privacy Policy explicitly states that all DNA samples and customer genetic data will not be used for any purpose other than services specifically requested by the customers.
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) January 08, 2015
The real dilemma in consumer genetics today is not only the race to introduce meaningful and actionable products, but the mechanisms used to display and communicate consumer information. The split has shifted to companies supporting the likes of big pharma, medical devices, and for-profit research institutions and companies that are collecting information solely for the use of the consumer. DNA Spectrum is committed to bringing new, innovative, and life-changing products to consumers rather than collecting information to sell to research institutions and for-profit organizations.
The company's latest product launch, myDNA Fitness, utilizes customer genetic data to provide fitness recommendations based on specific markers within their genomes. This technology is poised to transform the health industry as a whole, with the actual genetic data itself valuable to third parties looking to use it for both non-profit and for-profit research. This speaks to a larger trend within the genomics industry itself.
The race in consumer genetics has shifted to competition between companies protecting information from external sources and companies collecting research for profit. DNA Spectrum reaffirms its commitment to the consumer to provide genetic products solely for the individual gain of the consumer.
DNA Spectrum sources products from research institutions, laboratories, and intellectual property holders to develop consumer-driven products rather than collecting information to build a revenue-generating database at customer's cost.
DNA Spectrum has maintained its vision as a genetic products provider for the people since inception. DNA Spectrum is a marketplace that partners with researchers, institutions, and scientists to provide tests and life research into products that are meaningful and easy to understand to consumers. DNA Spectrum seeks to validate and simplify complex and insightful research into clear and relevant products for customers.
The company understands the inherent responsibility in dealing with its customers' genetic information and takes great pains to ensure that trust is never compromised. DNA Spectrum's Privacy Policy explicitly states that all collected samples and customer genetic data will not be used for any other purpose other than services specifically requested by its customers. Furthermore, the company's customers determine what other parties will have access to their genetic information. If customers wish to participate in large-scale research studies or medical trials, the decision should be up to the individual, not the company that is entrusted with the genetic makeup.
The battle for consumer genetic privacy is heating up as for-profit entities realize the value of outsourcing large data sets of genome information for research purposes. DNA Spectrum believes that consumers should have the right to choose whether or not their very own genomes are used. It is a fundamental right to freedom that society has yet to fully acknowledge. DNA Spectrum is ready and able to fight on behalf of its customers and all people who have a right to their genetic privacy, while providing services meant to both empower and improve their lives.
About DNA Spectrum
Every person's DNA stores an incredible amount of valuable information. This knowledge is only as relevant as the tools available to understand and unravel the mysteries hidden within the genetic sequence. The vision of DNA Spectrum is to uncover the information contained within a genome and present the findings in a format that is easy-to-understand, meaningful, and life changing.

An Epic Reef Part 8 – Best friends forever
This post is part 8 of the epic reef series.
Good news: Lily, our tiger pistol shrimp, is doing better. She seems to have recovered from the attack of the bad crab (see Part 7 – Crab and shrimp saga). Her claws grew back and she started digging again.
Shrimp and Goby Symbiosis
Lily's best friend is Gandalf, the watchman goby. Always on the lookout, he monitors the perimeter. He is ready to warn his friend in case of danger, as if he was about to throw a resounding "you shall not pass"!
Lily is listening because her eyesight is not very good, so she often keeps an antenna in contact with the goby. In exchange for her protection, she is happy to dig relentlessly an underground mansion in which they can both take refuge.
The two friends share their home and food. In the wild, their symbiosis allows gobies to lay their eggs and breed in the shelter of the tunnels that they are not able to dig by themselves.
Shrimp at Work
When it comes to digging, Lily does it very well. It's one of the most fun animals to watch in our little marine world (I'll share the others soon). She is constantly expanding her underground empire. Not to mention that she does not only dig, she solidifies the entrance to her palace with the help of shells she finds on her path.
Here is a small video of our shrimp at work, under the supervision of her friend the goby.
Other Symbioses
Clown Fish and Anemone
Another common symbiosis in reef aquariums is the one which unites clown fishes with their anemone. The anemone offers protection against predators and the clown fish provides crumbs of food during its passage. This is made possible by the unique ability of clown fishes to secrete a substance similar to the irritating mucus of their host, which protects them unlike other species.
In nature, the protection of an anemone is absolutely necessary for the survival and reproduction of clown fishes. They are usually territorial and only one couple will occupy each anemone and even defend it against intruders if necessary. Our clowns have probably been raised in aquariums because so far, they completely ignored the anemone. After several weeks of cohabitation, they just started yesterday to approach it slightly. To be followed… I can not wait to see them rub in it.
Cleaning Service
Another hard worker of our aquarium is our little shrimp Antoinette. This small lysmata shrimp loves to offer a cleaning to the fish of her entourage. They position themselves within her reach and she strips them of all the tiny residues that cling to their scales. I tried to make a video of this activity to show it to you even though my fish Ti-Mé wanted all the attention for himself.
Valentine's Day Gift
I'll end with the romantic Valentine's Day gift I received: a beautiful red starfish and a pretty pink sea urchin. Even their colors are in the theme of the love celebration!

Christmas Cheer for Online Retail
The UK etail market grew by 17 per cent year-on-year to December 2009, higher than the 14 per cent annual growth recorded in December 2008. So what can we expect this year, after 12months of steadying economic climes followed by more budget cuts and the prospect of a double-dip recession?
I'd wager that online will again outstrip in-store and see further growth, and that we'll be seeing far more cross-channel innovation to support it.
We believe we'll also see a healthy slice of that revenue coming from mobile devices. M-commerce has been bolstered over the past year by the continuing flood of Smartphone's into the mainstream market. ABI research has predicted that the mobile sector will grow to $119bn ($75bn) by 2015 in the US. In Europe, this market is already producing healthy results, and some feel it's likely to overtake the US by the end of the year.
And what will Santa most popular gift be this yuletide? Well the iPad, OF COURSE. After a torrid start, things have settled down for Apple's latest game-changer. The naysayers have quietened, and it looks like it will become an apparitional fixture, if not a staple item in every household.
And social media will certainly be joining in the festivities. The recent launch of Facebook Places means there's plenty of opportunity for brands to communicate with consumers over the holiday period, particularly if they can harness the power of the Like button as well as virgin did directly.
The airline is offering users the chance to enter a competition for Upper class tickets if the ad gets shared enough to hit 50,000 Likes on facebook page. A simple and cost-effective ruse to give a standard broadcast campaign more mileage. Twitter will also come into its own, as it's a great medium for one-day sales, and perfect for last minute Christmas campaigns and the January sales.
Confidence in ecommerce is at an all-time high, and, despite murmurings about further economic instability, I'd happily bet the contents of my own stocking that December's online sales will break all records by an even bigger margin than 2009.

Bare follows a group of students at a Catholic boarding school as they grapple with issues of sexuality, identity, and the future. As the group attempts to put on a musical production of Romeo and Juliet, tensions flare, self-doubt simmers, and God's path seems more difficult to find than ever.
This coming of age tale is more of a rock and roll musical than an opera and although the story might seem basic on the surface, it goes into realms you may not expect. The opening of this production suffered from some initial sound issues resulting in the audience losing l lot of the lyrics and therefore some of the story as the band drown out the vocals, thankfully this improved throughout the show. However, there were times when it felt like the performers were holding back on their vocals, making it hard to understand at times even from the front rows. It's a show that only really starts to pick up energy halfway through where it finally gets into its stride.
The layout was sadly a little basic for what is usually expected from The Vaults which is normally so immersive and innovative when it comes to their staging. I've never been so uncomfortably close to other audience members and the long catwalk style staging suffered from sightline issues and the shape didn't add anything to the performance. The movement direction was really dynamic and the humour in the show is laugh out loud funny. Georgie Lovatt is a real stand out in the role of Nadia in both musical talent and performance
The show improves as it continues and it does have some real charm which develops throughout. The ending is really an emotional moment and brought a tear to my eye as the show is brought into contrast with real-world LGBT youth issues.
Bare: A Pop Up Opera is on at The Vaults until the 4th of August, tickets start from £24.50.
Tickets were given in exchange for review, all words and opinions are my own.

Sen. Charles Grassley is so angry over AIG bonuses that he says the executives should resign or kill themselves.
In a comment aired this afternoon on WMT, an Iowa radio station, Grassley (R-Iowa) said: "The first thing that would make me feel a little bit better towards them if they'd follow the Japanese model and come before the American people and take that deep bow and say I'm sorry, and then either do one of two things — resign, or go commit suicide."

It'll be just a matter of time before the equinox has a major mechanical malfunction.
Aside from some transmission module that was a recall and changed under warranty this car has been trouble free for the most part of 197,700 miles. Which is great, but given my own maintenance history with this car I'm not sure of the future.
What I mean by that is I know when it's been leaking oil, by when I add some between oil changes. The oil cap has had some milky substance on it before, but didn't remain. Coolant has disappeared and I have added more to the system, which seems fine now. I always know when it'll be time to add some when I take off from a hill or a light I hear the trickling down into the heater core from what I suppose. Add cool and and that is quiet. I was thinking my water pump failed when it was over heating but it was just low.
Things I have replaced include
the EGR valve and tube, bad initial tube design got a hole in it and I drove for quite a few miles leaking.
Most recently the catalytic converter, which I have a suspicion was caused by the missing coolant into the exhaust.
Sway bar end links up front, were causing a racket and are quiet with new ones.
Alternator and multiple battery's over the course of ownership
Other various wear & Maintence items like brakes and spark plugs.
Overall it's been a good car. And a good 4 person family car. But even so we have grown out of it and upgraded capacity to a minivan for family + luggage hauling.
Items on a list that'll need replaced are suspension components like strut assemblies, rear springs and shocks to the tune of about $400-600 depending on brand and quality.
Tires, wiper blades, headlight restoration or replacement.
Until it gives up I'll keep driving it and replacing things as needed. Anticipating the 200,000 mile roll over that should happen before the years end.
Had a couple hours at work waiting on some air tests, to let my mind wander.
