The above photograph shows 22 High Street when it was Prewetts printers and stationers shop. We are particularly grateful to Mike Horder for allowing us to see the deeds of this property and to photograph them for the benefit of Thornbury Museum
There are a few interesting features to the house. There is a narrow alleyway on the left side of the shop which passes through the building to the back. In 1868 when the property was put up for sale it was said to have a stable so this passageway must have been used by the horses. The same advert shows there was a Summer House. We suspect that this is the two storey 'tower', now dilapidated, at the bottom of the garden. There are signs of this outbuilding having at least one fireplace and windows. In an oral history interview Madge Horder who was born in the property and lived there for many years, recalled there was a double seated toilet down the bottom of the garden underneath what was the tower. She explained that someone came once a week to pull up the buckets and carry them through the print office to the front of the building.
In the deeds George Luce is shown as being the earliest owner and occupant of 22 High Street and the earliest document is George's last will and testament dated 1821. This will shows that the property was then considered to be part of Tithing of Kington within the Parish of Thornbury and near to the Borough of Thornbury. Using the Kington Land Tax records we have been able to trace the property from late 1700's when it was occupied by Richard Luce.
Richard and Sarah Luce – the Kington Land Tax records of 1780 to 1784 show that Richard Luce owned and occupied a property in Kington. His property was listed next to Daniel Pitcher whom we believe lived at 24 High Street.
According to a family tree on the Ancestry website Richard was baptised on 14th February 1740 in Rockhampton and his parents were Thomas and Elizabeth Luce.
On 24th February 1762 Richard married Sarah Grove, the daughter of John Grove, the butcher and his wife, Anne (nee Cossham). Richard and Sarah had several children: John born on 12th September 1762 and baptised on 6th October 1762, Amelia born on 10th January 1765 and baptised on 13th February 1765, George born 31st May 1767 and baptised on 16th June 1767, Roger born on 24th January 1770 and baptised on 14th February 1770, Anne baptised on 22nd February 1771, another son Roger born about 1774 and William born on 7th March 1778 and baptised on 11th April 1778 when he was noted as having convulsions.
The baptism records show Richard was a barber or peruke maker (a wig maker). Of these children, the first Roger died as an infant, the second Roger died aged 3 and was buried on 12th February 1777, William died as an infant and John died aged 21 and was buried on 12th September 1784.
Richard died aged 47 and was buried on 27th December 1786 and Sarah died aged 49 and was buried on 14th March 1790.
George and Mary Luce – it appears that George inherited the property from his father (see above). The Kington Land Tax records of 1800, 1810 and 1824 show George as the owner and occupier of the same property next door to Daniel Pitcher.
George married Mary Dyer at Olveston on 1st August 1799. Based upon her reported age at her death Mary was born about 1778. George and Mary settled to live in Thornbury and had several children there: Sarah born on 16th August 1800 and baptised on 14th September 1800, Ann born on 9th October 1802 and baptised on 14th November 1802, Mary born on 27th April 1804 and baptised on 3rd June 1804, Harriett born on 11th March 1808 and baptised on 31st October 1810 and John born on 29th June 1806 and baptised on 27th June 1806. The baptism record of Harriett shows George was a barber. We were interested to see a reference to George in the records of expenditure incurred by Thomas Hendy in 1822 in his role as executor of his father's will. George charged five shillings for shaving the deceased.
Of these children, John died on 9th November 1807 aged 16 months and Sarah died on 28th July 1815 aged 15. George died on 7th November 1823 aged 56. In his will dated 29th September 1821 George described himself as a peruke maker. He left his house and his estate in trust to Mary during her lifetime or widowhood. After her death the estate was to be divided between his three children, Ann, Mary and Harriett. In the event Ann pre-deceased her father and died on 7th March 1823 aged 20, without having been married. George also bequeathed his 'little gun, gun box and all thereto belonging to Edward Salmon Junior, son of Edward Salmon surgeon'.
The Land Tax records show George's widow, Mary, carried on living in the house.
Mary Luce, George and Mary's daughter, married Thomas Hodsoll in Thornbury on 31st May 1827. She died on 9th August 1843 having had five children: George Luce baptised about 1828 who went to China in 1844, Harriet Luce baptised in 1832 who married Ellis Chambers, Lucy Victoria born in Trowbridge in 1838 and married James Tooley and Albert born in Marshfield in 1842 who left England in 1856.
On 18th February 1835 George and Mary's daughter, Harriet married William Mill Mawley at Thornbury. Their marriage didn't last long. Click here to read about the Mawleys
The 1840 Tithe Survey shows us that the property was Plot 65, a house and garden owned and occupied by Mary Luce. The 1841 census shows Mary Luce living in 22 High Street. She was described as "independent" aged 60 living with her daughter Harriett Mawley, an artist aged 30, her grand-daughter, Harriet Mawley aged 5 and an auctioneer James Neate aged 60.
In the 1851 census Mary Luce was a landed proprietor aged 72, her daughter, Harriet Mawley, a married lady aged 43, and grand-daughter, Harriet Luce Mawley aged 15 who was a scholar at home. The 1861 census shows Mary Luce still living at 22 High Street. She was described as a fundholder aged 83 born in Rudgeway, living with her daughter, Harriett Mawley, a proprietor of houses aged 55 and grand-daughter, Harriett Luce Mawley an embroiderer aged 25.
On 4th February 1863 Harriet arranged to transfer her property and the moiety in 22 High Street to her daughter, Harriett Luce Mawley. Mary Luce died on 12th February 1868 aged 90. Following her death the property at 22 High Street was put up for sale at auction in January 1869. The advert for the auction can still be seen hanging on the wall inside the shop! It describes the property as:
"all that messuage or dwelling-house, with Garden, Stable, and Summer-house, situated on the West side of the High Street now in the occupation of Mrs Harriet Mawley. The House contains Two Front Sitting Rooms, Kitchen, Back Kitchen with workshop over, China Pantry, Four Bed Rooms, Large Cellar, Rain-water Cistern, and other domestic offices. The Premises may be easily converted into a Shop or for other business purposes, for which they are eligibly situated".
On 17th March 1869 the property was sold by all the interested parties in accordance with the will of George Luce. These were Harriet Mawley, Harriet Luce Mawley, Ellis Chambers and his wife Harriett Luce (nee Hodsall), Kingston Read and his wife, Mary, and James Tooley and his wife, Lucy Victoria. The income tax records show that Harriet Mawley was entitled to a moiety or half of the £280 made from the sale of 22 High Street, which was to be passed to her daughter Harriet Luce Mawley. The three children of Mary Hodsoll were entitled to one sixth share each of the £280 (being equal thirds of their mother's half share).
Henry James Dodd – on 17th March 1869 Henry bought the property for £280. We have a copy of an indenture confirming this purchase. We note that the 1876 Rate Book shows the owner was Obed Edward Thurston, but we suspect that he might have provided Henry with a mortgage.
On October 7th 1837 Henry married Hester Wilcox in Olveston in Gloucestershire. Hester of the daughter of Robert and Elizabeth Wilcox and the brother of William Radford Wilcox who had run a grocer's shop at 43 High Street in the 1830's and early 1840's. The 1841 census shows that they settled in Olveston and Henry was a draper and grocer. They were living there with their daughter, Ann aged 2. The 1851 census shows the family in Olveston Street, Olveston. It shows that Ann Elizabeth was born in Wickwar and they also had two extra children, Thomas Henry aged 9 and Hannah Hester aged 5, both born in Olveston.
By the 1859 Rate Book Henry had moved to Thornbury. He appears to have taken over the ownership of 9 High Street and was living there. The 1861 census shows Henry, was a grocer, draper and outfitter at 7 High Street. Of his children, only Hester Hannah was living with them – she was aged 15 and now helping in the business. His son, Thomas Henry and sister Ann Elizabeth were living in Poole where they had a drapery business there which employed two assistants and a porter. In 1861 Ann married Edwin Boyes Lonnen and they settled in Thornbury. Thomas Henry also returned to Thornbury and married Frances Jane Powell at the Independent Chapel on 3rd April 1862.
The 1862 Rate Book still shows Henry as the owner and occupant of 9 High Street. In 1864 Henry's daughter, Hester Hannah died. Henry's son, Thomas Henry died aged 25 on 4th July 1867. Click here to read about Thomas Henry Dodd.
The 1867 Rate Book shows that Edwin Lonnen had taken over the running of the shop at 9 High Street previously occupied by his father-in-law, Henry James Dodd, although Henry still owned it.
In the 1871 census Henry is listed as a retired general shopkeeper aged 56 born in Ashborough in Norfolk. He was living in 22 High Street with his wife, Hester Dodd aged 58 from Alveston. It's possible that Hester was not well as she died of apoplexy on 7th April 1871 aged 58. On 19th October 1872 Henry re-married – his second wife was Jemima youngest daughter of W. Ball of Staple Hill Lodge near Bristol.
The 1880 Rate Book shows that Henry was the owner of 22 High Street, but he had moved away. The name of tenant was shown as being 'W. Cole' but the name was crossed through which generally means he had also moved away. The 1881 census shows Henry James and Jemima had gone to live with her sister Mary Strange Roach in Clevedon. In the same Census Edwin and Ann Lonnen were living in the High Street in Poole in Dorset.
Henry James Dodd died on 5th December 1885 aged 71. Although he died in Clevedon, he was buried at what is now known as the United Reformed Church in Thornbury in the same grave as his son, Thomas Henry. On 15th February 1886 Henry's executors, his daughter, Ann Lonnen and her son, Thomas Henry, sold the property to Charles Fry for £310.
In the 1881 census 22 High Street was unoccupied. The 1885 Rate Book shows the property was still owned by H. J. Dodd but occupied by Charles Fry.
Charles Fry – Charles was a saddler and harness maker. He was shown as the tenant of 22 High Street in the 1885 Rate Book, but on 15th February 1886 he bought the property for £310.
Charles was baptised on 1st August 1858, the son of George Fry a tailor and his wife, Elizabeth. Charles married on 5th May 1881. He wife was Ellen Lester, the daughter of John Lester, a gardener and his wife, Elizabeth. George and Ellen had several children: Fanny Elizabeth baptised on 28th June 1882, Elsie Ellen baptised on 9th October 1884, Mary Grace baptised on 3rd April 1887, Lucy Annie baptised on 5th December 1888, Charles Colston baptised on 22nd July 1892 and George John baptised on 29th May 1896. Of these children, Mary Grace died aged 9 months and was buried on 30th July 1887.
The 1891 census shows Charles at 22 High Street. He was living there with his wife, Ellen a dressmaker aged 31 and their children: Fanny Elizabeth aged 8, Elsie Ellen aged 6, Lucy Annie aged 2 and Hilda May aged 7 months.
The photo on the left shows the shop advertising it as 'Fry, saddler'.
Charles Fry was elected councillor in March 1898 and he was a "carnal" of Thornbury Court Leet in 1898. He failed to be elected to the Council in 1899 when there was a campaign to elect only those councillors who supported an application to remove the ban on the sale of intoxicating liquor in the Cossham Hall. We assume Charles was a supporter of this campaign which appears to have failed as Stafford Howard, a leader of the Temperance Movement in the Town won the election easily.
It appears that Charles gave up his shop at 22 High Street around 1899. There was a notice in the Bristol Mercury that with effect from 24th June 1899 the licence of 'the Ship' at Tytherington was transferred to him from Elizabeth Phillimore. He still had his Thornbury connections however and in November 1899 the meeting of the Court Leet shows that Charles was still sworn to be a jury man.
The thumbnail photograph on the right shows Charles, Ellen and their children about 1900. Click on the thumbnail to see a larger image.
A notice of sale printed in the South Gloucestershire Chronicle on 3rd March 1900 shows that Charles had moved from the High Street and was trying to sell the property. By 1901 Charles had moved to Tytherington where he was innkeeper at The Swan. At the time of the census they had four children living with them Fanny aged 18, Hilda aged 11, Charles aged 8 and George aged 5. The 1901 census shows that, although Frances Gayner had bought 22 High Street, it was occupied at that time by Charles's parents, one of his sisters, an uncle and a boarder. George Fry was described as a tailor aged 77 living with Elizabeth aged 80 and Charles's sister, Ursula P Chandler was a widow aged 56. William Powell, described as George's brother-in-law aged 81. The boarder was George H. Low, a school teacher (Board) aged 24 from Bristol.
An indenture dated 17th August 1903 shows that Charles still owed £300 borrowed from Eliza Young and he was forced to sell the property for £725. The purchaser was Albert Prewett.
In 1908 Charles bought a house at 19 St John Street for £120. It doesn't seem as if Charles lived in this house. Charles and Ellen were still at The Swan in Tytherington in the 1911 census and in 1913 when his father died. In 1911 only their son, George John, was living with them. We know that Charles's son, Charles Colston Fry, joined the merchant navy as he was issued with the Mercantile Marine Medal in 1919.
Charles died in 1922 aged 64. We are not sure when Ellen died, although we note that an Ellen Fry died in the Cirencester area in 1944 aged 85. See also the photograph album of the Fry family
Ernest Percy Weatherhead and Frank Symes – a notice of sale printed in the South Gloucestershire Chronicle on 3rd March 1900 shows that Charles Fry had moved from the High Street. The advert described the property as a 'freehold dwelling house with 2 shops garden etc in High Street formerly occupied by Charles Fry and now in possession of Messrs EP Weatherhead and F. Symes – sold to Mr F. Gayner for £670'.
Each of these traders had their main premises further down the High Street so we don't know why they wanted this property and what they did with it. By 1905 they had vacated number 22.
Albert Prewett – on 17th August 1903 Albert Prewett purchased the property from Charles Fry for £725. His descendents are still running the family business which Albert set up from the same building. Click here to read more

Increasing public criticism of traditional teacher evaluation systems based largely on classroom observations has spurred an unprecedented shift in the debate surrounding educational accountability policies, specifically about the purposes for and measures used to evaluate teachers. In response to growing public demand and associated federal mandates, states have been prompted to design and implement teacher evaluation systems that use increasingly available, statistically complex models (i.e., value-added) intended to isolate and measure the effects of individual teachers on student academic growth over time. The purpose of this study was to examine the perceptions of school administrators and teachers within one of …

Healthy Travel Guide: The Poconos
This Pennsylvania region has plenty of health- and fitness-focused attractions to offer, whether you're into running or just love an outdoor adventure
The Poconos, nestled in northeastern corner of Pennsylvania, has come a long way from its reputation for hosting honeymooners in heart-shaped hot tubs (although those still exist). The region, famous for natural scenic beauty-including 150 lakes-and quaint, historic towns, is also an outdoor adventure mecca. We're talking hiking, boating, biking, and kayaking. Love a good run? The Pocono Lake Region 13.1 half marathon, happening on September 28, will take you through some of the area's most beautiful vistas, such as rolling farmlands, fresh water trout streams and Lake Wallenpaupack.
Whether you're looking for a peaceful retreat to rebalance your chakras or an exhilarating experience hiking in the hills, a three-day getaway in the Pocono Mountains-especially during the fall months, when you'll be able to take in the changing foliage-will be weekend well-spent. (Live on the west coast? Then you must check out our Healthy Travel Guide: Aspen, Colorado.)
Sleep well
Mount Airy Lodge, once known as a honeymooner's hideaway, has undergone a multi-million dollar redo that literally rebuilt the resort from the ground up. The resort now feels super modern and stylish, and sits on over a thousand acres, hosting it's own golf course and boutique-style casino. In addition to trying your hand at some blackjack, get some downtime lounging by the awesome indoor-outdoor heated pool. Dine at Bistecca, Il Mulio's five-star on-site outpost that's just as delish as the original in New York City. And with a brand new fitness center that's open 24/7, you'll also be able to squeeze in a workout anytime you want. Centrally located in the Pocono Valley, you'll easily be able to reach the rest of the region with this as your home base.
Looking for something a bit more serene? Head to the Hotel Fauchere, a Relais & Chateaux inn that outfits its rooms with Frette linens, Kiehl's bath amenities, and warming towel racks for a truly luxe experience. The on-site restaurant, The Delmonico Room, is one of the area's finest farm-to-table restaurants. Located in adorably country-chic Milford, the hotel also boasts a private garden and conservatory, perfect for reading and relaxing.
Stay in shape
Like biking? Add hiking and rafting to it with the Big Day Out, which is offered on select weekends throughout the fall. You'll begin the day with a 25-mile mountain bike ride through the Lehigh Gorge Rail-Trail. After a box lunch, you'll go on a scenic hike to an abandoned railroad tunnel with beautiful overlooks of the Lehigh River. Then you'll descend back to the Lehigh River, where you'll whitewater raft for eight miles. You'll end your adventure with a delicious dinner and roaring bonfire.
Wanna try your, er, feet, at stand-up paddleboarding? Mauka Nalu offers 90-minute fitness classes and 2- and 4-hour tours on the Delaware River. Are you a newbie? The company also offers intro classes for $30 an hour, where they'll teach you to get on and off the board, switch sides, and get up your feet. Get off the river and onto a lake with Pocono Paddle Board and Fitness, which takes you on a two-and-a-half-hour SUP tour around Lake Harmony. Or extend your tour a few hours to add a hike to the Beltzville Waterfall after 45 minutes on the board. For SUP yoga classes on Lake Wallenpaupack, check out Roots Yoga, which holds classes Friday and Sunday mornings. (Brush up on your SUP skills before heading over with The Beginners' Guide to Stand-Up Paddleboarding.)
The Poconos is also known for adventure runs, like mud runs, a Spartan Race, a Warrior Dash, and several triathlons. (Check out the Calendar of Events to find out more). And if you happen to find yourself in the Poconos during the winter months, make sure you get in some downhill or cross country skiing at one of the many area ski resorts.
Fuel your trip
The Gem and Keystone Brewpub (pictured above, left) beers are handcrafted and brewed on the premises, and the menu features local produce, all natural meats, Pennsylvania farm-stand cheeses and sustainable seafood. Yum! The relaxed-but-chic Settler's Inn offers innovative farm-to-table menus shaped by the seasons, farms, pastures, and producers of the region. Thirsty? Head over to Quench Cafe and Juice Bar (pictured above, right) in Stroudsburg for fresh-squeezed juices and smoothies along with healthy paninis, soups, and salads.
Pit stop
It wouldn't be a trip to the Poconos without a stop at one of the area's awesome indoor water parks. Get your thrill on with some attractions made just for grown-up kids, like slideboarding at Great Wolf Lodge, which combines bright lights, music, and fast water for a Guitar Hero-esque water slide. Our fave to get your heart pounding: The Hydro Plunge, a roller coaster on water that sends you plunging down a thrilling 52-foot vertical drop. The resort also offers an aerial obstacle course, where you can climb through nets and cross sky top bridges. Meanwhile, Camelback Mountain Resort, which also has an indoor/outdoor water park, boasts the longest zip line in North America, a treetop adventure course, and a speeding mountain coaster.
Left your sports bra at home? Need a new pair of sneaks? Head over to nearby Crossings Premium Outlet Mall, which has outlets for tons of athletic wear manufacturers like Adidas, Nike, Reebok, Columbia Sports, Converse, The North Face, and Under Armour. When you're done stocking up on sportswear, you can pop in outlets for luxe retailers like Coach, Cole Haan, Kate Spade New York, and Michael Kors. Prefer to shop for art and decor? Head over to downtown Milford, home to a ton of galleries and chic home boutiques.
Recover right
Consistently voted one of the country's best destination spas, The Lodge at Woodloch will not disappoint. A sanctuary for the senses, the adult-only spa offers an array of body treatments, massages, and facials. Our pick: The Rosemary Awakening, which begins with a body polish of rosemary and citrus followed by a body massage with herbal heat packs to restore tired muscles. A warm seaweed wrap and a luxurious scalp massage complete your healing journey. While you're there, enjoy a hydro massage in the Aqua Garden's water walls, the outdoor infinity edge whirlpool, and the Whisper Lounge, which has a fireplace and an outdoor porch with rocking chairs. (And to make your trip even more relaxing, here are 5 Ways to Upgrade Your Vacation.)
Date night
Request a table on the terrace at the French Manor Restaurant for a wonderful view of the Pocono Mountains, or, if the night air is a bit chilly, a table for two by the fireplace. Either way, you're in for a superbly romantic dining experience that features nouvelle French cuisine. Think: Dining by candlelight, jackets required for guys, and no kids under the age of 12. On Saturdays, stop by for a garden tour with the chef to get a sneak-peek at what will be on the evening's menu.

We've recently made some big strides at Dyn in implementing a more modern configuration management platform (CFEngine 3) to replace an internally developed system that wasn't meeting our needs anymore.
Reading about the options out there inevitably leads you to see comparisons of many tools to fill this need. I found myself also learning about several myths regarding implementing configuration management.
In our case, some of these were the difference between a successful deployment and an abandoned effort.
Myth 1: Servers are disposable. Rebuild them if they break.
Reading best practices of configuration management, I got the impression that this is used as a crutch for when your configuration adjustments break existing systems. We'd prefer not to have to fix broken machines by rebuilding them from blank installs and I don't think we're alone in that thinking.
I suspect most system administrators would rather have the existing machine continue to work than deploy a new one. With particular system architectures and the modern capabilities of virtual machines, servers may be more disposable than ever, but that doesn't mean they have to be.
Some of our machines are a little too reliant on the hardware performance they get from dedicated storage, CPU time or dedicated network interface cards. Redeploying hardware machines through our distributed infrastructure from scratch isn't a trivial problem to resolve. It's also a problem that rarely comes up on its own.
The promise/action arrangement of CFEngine configurations works well for us in this regard. We can be sure that the promises we make with CFEngine should always come out true, as well as the atomic operations to correct them shouldn't fail on any machine because of how atomic the promises are in the first place.
Myth 2: Configuration Management is an all or nothing endeavor.
The way we've arranged our promises in CFEngine has allowed us to overlay centrally controlled configurations on top of existing systems in production usage. We were able to build the promises/actions for managing users, then the promises/actions for managing groups, etc. We proceeded through each of these "features" that we needed one at a time.
This approach just means that as one feature in our old configuration management tool is re-engineered, we can remove it from the old tool and let CFEngine handle it from here on out.
A feature can be simple, like distribution of internally-recognized SSL certificate files or adding a note to the MOTD seen upon login. A feature can also be complex, like the deployment of one of our application installations, requiring installation of system packages, files deployed from our codebase, users and groups created, etc.
The important part is that as you build the features you want to manage into the new configuration management solution, you can gradually move from your existing configuration management tool to your new tool. Building your rules this way also ensures that you know they'll work when you deploy them on machines in different stages of convergence.
Myth 3: Constant updating is necessary to keep all your systems in sync.
Out of the box, most modern configuration management systems will aim to constantly update your system to reach a state of eventual convergence with your configuration. CFEngine isn't any different in this regard, but that's a troubling scenario when you're overlaying configuration management onto existing boxes.
When you ask about dry-run or reporting-only modes, you'll likely find some friction with best practices for modern configuration management. You're supposed to just trust the configuration management tool to accomplish what you've set it to do. You inevitably have to ask the question about what happens when you need to make a change to a system that is having trouble communicating with the central configuration authority for one reason or another.
We've found that with CFEngine, we can assuage our discomfort with this concept using its dry-run modes. We can make local changes to a system if the need arises, such as during a DDoS mitigation when every second in the response time counts and central configuration may not be feasible.
If we do, our configuration management systems will now start screaming for attention by alerting us to unkept promises, but it won't undo our work to mitigate an attack automatically. Once the incident requiring those manual changes is over, we can worry about making sure systems are in sync with configuration management again.
Most importantly, we won't forget to do that because the systems will make it clear that they need attention as soon as we can focus on them again.
This may not apply to other infrastructures, but in our case, it's important to recognize that configuration of our product is adjusting itself all the time. System configurations outside of our application don't actually change that much. This kind of reporting-only approach to configuration management works very well for our operations.
Myth 4: Pick a tool and just start using it.
This is great advice for getting started and getting familiar with configuration management, but lousy advice to get started really using it. The principle is that the strengths and weaknesses of each tool will balance out and everything will work out once you get comfortable with the tool you've chosen. The better message is that using any configuration management tool is better than using none. I'd be hard-pressed to disagree with that.
I prefer to think it's best to pick the problem that is the largest pain point for your existing configuration methodology and then try to implement that in all the configuration management solutions you're looking to take for a test drive.
Try it in each of the operating systems and versions you're trying to manage. The aim here: be sure that things that work great for you on a Linux box don't run into quirky side-effects on an OpenBSD box. Don't focus on building a whole system; build a whole feature instead.
In our case, that first feature was user and group management where Dyn's amount of staff has scaled much faster than our ability to manage it in our old home-grown configuration management solution.
Make sure you can manage that feature in each of the systems you're considering migrating to or else you're going to quickly see an abandoned project. Why would you spend so much effort building a new configuration management solution that will run into the same problems you're already coping with now?
The best part of this approach: as you begin to deploy your new configuration management solution, it's already solving pain points in the old system!
Myth 5: This isn't scary. Just do it.
Actually, when you tell your new configuration management system to "Go" in your production environment for the first time, it is kind of scary. It doesn't matter how long you've been testing, how many scenarios for failure you've planned for or how good your reverting strategy is.
Ignoring that bit, just do it anyway. It is worth it.

Meteorological Data Acquisition Sonde System
MDASS (Meteorological Data Acquisition Sonde System) is a compact set of sensors that collects meteorological data necessary for weather observation. The system must be able to accurately and precisely collect the same data that is collected on systems such as Mesonet, weather balloons and Doppler radar and provide in situ measurements during its operation. The dropsonde deployment system within MARIA dictated the size and weight requirement of MDASS. In order for MDASS to be deployed from MARIA and have a relatively consitant descent rate, the sensory set needed to be heavy enough to guide the parachute downwards while being light enough for the aircraft to carry up to 12 systems. A maximum length of 230 mm and diameter of 40 mm would need to be adhered to for the deployment mechanism to fit each system. The battery life should be able to sustain the sensors for at least two hours so that pre-tornadic flight campaigns would not be limited by MDASS capabilities.

Superfast broadband is nearly here, but will it be available to everyone, and will subscription costs create a nation of web haves and have-nots? PC Advisor investigates.
Broadband never really disappears from the news or advertising. It's big business. And it's increasingly the means through which our entertainment and information needs are fulfilled. TV, music streaming, gaming, social networking and teleworking all depend on a good, solid web connection.
Lose your TV signal and you lose one means of receiving information; lose web access and you can no longer email, Facebook, browse the web for gossip or more meaningful information, or reach out to friends across the globe.
Many of us now spend more of our free time surfing the web and chatting on Facebook than we do on any other leisure activity. The web is becoming the main way we reach the outside world, so more reliable means of using it can only be a good thing.
Our increasing use of the web means our data demands have increased exponentially – and they will continue to grow.
Thankfully, a whole new broadband backbone is coming to a street near you soon. It's fatter, faster and much more reliable than old copper cable – and in the coming months, you'll be hearing more and more about it.
Marketing efforts are about to get much more prevalent as BT and its wholesale partners begin a mammoth push on the back of the fibre-optic broadband rollout. Promising download speeds of 20 megabits per second (Mbps) as a minimum and as much as 100Mbps as a theoretical maximum, the new breed of super-fast broadband is a high-stakes game.
In just a few months' time, connection speeds touching 400Mbps may be launched, while yet faster speeds promise to finally lift at least some parts of Broadband Britain out of the technological doldrums and on to the information superhighway.
Although such heady heights are a long way off, BT has already ploughed £2.5bn into fibre-optic broadband. It says that by the end of this year, such services will be available to four million households or 40 percent of the UK.
By 2015 this reach will be as much as 65 percent of the UK. With the infrastructure well on its way to being in place, it's now time for individual broadband service providers to start convincing customers like you and me that blistering speeds are worth having – and worth paying for.
What's happening in Broadband Britain?
There's still an availability gulf, but UK broadband connections on the whole are getting faster. SamKnows, which telecoms regulator Ofcom uses to help monitor actual broadband speeds, announced in July that since last year the average connection has risen from 4.1Mbps to 5.2Mps.
One of the reasons the UK average connection now runs at more than 5Mbps is that ISPs continue to tweak the hardware and the ADSL telephony to eke the maximum performance they can from it. Consumers can also reap improvements by keeping on top of upgrades and firmware updates to their broadband routers. If you're still using the modem router that came with your original broadband subscription, switching to a newer device can bring immediate benefits.
But the actual web speeds delivered by our 'up to' 20Mbps ADSL2+ connections often fall far short of their headline figures. This failure to deliver has prompted Ofcom to act against ISPs selling broadband in this manner, and consumers will eventually be given the option to cancel a subscription that delivers connection speeds slower than what's been promised. This legislation won't become effective until the end of the year, unfortunately, but at least it gives customers some sort of comeback.
In the meantime, a brave new world of far faster broadband is being rolled out. Based on a fibre-optic network known as BT Infinity, it's a whole new approach to home broadband. Unshackled from the limitations of copper wires, it's less likely to end up being tarred with the same 'disappointing' brush that has dogged ADSL 2+ and local loop unbundling (LLU).
In fact, first impressions from those who have been involved in fibre-optic broadband trials have been glowing, as one customer we spoke to explained (see 'Fibre-optic broadband in practice', on the next page).
And while the number of places where fibre-optic broadband is ready to go is still limited, the number of enabled BT exchanges is now more than 150.

[ The 2019/2020 Season | Features | Archives | Facts ]
The 2018/2019 Season
This is the place for times gone by. The World Championship was first contested in 1927. This section includes a list of all the finals since then.
Season Results
Results by season
Lists of finals for a number of tournaments.
Match-by-match summaries of the 1994 and 1995 World Championships.
Medal table.
Here are some facts about the tournament circuit. There are professional tournaments and Pro-Ams (for professionals and amateurs alike).
Professional tournaments
Ranking tournaments
There are currently (2019/2020) 17 ranking tournaments run by World Snooker with the World Championship being the most important. The top players in the world rankings are automatically qualified through to the latter stages of some events. Usually though they have to battle through the qualifying rounds like everyone else.
Invitational tournaments
Invitational tournaments are, as the name implies, reserved a priviliged group of players. Usually the best ranked players automatically receive invitations. In addition the organizers like to invite the most promising talents and some local players.
The Masters in London is the second most prestigious tournament of the season. Only outranked by the World Championship itself. Other events include the Championship League.
The International Billiards & Snooker Federation hold World championships for men, women, juniors and seniors. In addition there are continental championships held by the various regional organizations. Previously all these events were strictly for amateurs but now they have been opened for lower-ranked professionals as well. From the 2017/2018 season though the World Snooker Federation (run by the WPBSA) has taken a elading role.
The ladies have a ranking tournament circuit of their own, run by the World Women's Snooker. Unfortunately it is overshadowed by the men's circuit and doesn't receive much coverage. Each year there is a separate world championship for the ladies. The women are also allowed to play on the professional circuit.

Could this £5 blood test predict a heart attack 15 years early? Scientists say it could help doctors spot high-risk patients
- When heart muscle is damaged it leaks a protein called troponin into the blood
- Testing for this protein can be used to detect the early signs of damage early
- The simple test would take just 30 minutes to deliver a result straight to doctors
- It would identify people who would benefit from cholesterol-busting statins
- It can also assess how well statins are working - and help find another treatment
Some 188,000 people have heart attacks in Britain each year, and nearly 70,000 die as a result.
Many of these cases are avoidable, with lifestyle factors - particularly drinking, smoking, diet and exercise - having an impact on roughly 85 per cent of cases.
Yet people tend not to take action until they start to suffer warning signs.
A blood test that detects troponin is already used in hospitals to quickly diagnose whether someone has had a heart attack.
But the new study, led by the universities of Edinburgh and Glasgow, suggests it the troponin test can also be used to detect the early signs of damage years before someone actually has an attack.
In a trial of 3,000 men with high cholesterol but no history of heart disease, the team found high troponin levels accurately predicted the risk of a person suffering a heart attack up to 15 years later.
Those who tested positive for high troponin levels were 2.3 times more likely to have a heart attack, the researchers found.
But the results, published last night in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, also reinforced the use of statins as a treatment for heart disease.

Update: Case-Shiller House Prices will probably decline month-to-month Seasonally starting in October
This is just a reminder: The Not Seasonally Adjusted (NSA) monthly Case-Shiller house price indexes will show month-to-month declines soon, probably starting with the October report to be released in late December. The CoreLogic index has already started to decline on a month-to-month basis. This is not a sign of impending doom - or another collapse in house prices - it is just the normal seasonal pattern.
Even in normal times house prices tend to be stronger in the spring and early summer, than in the fall and winter. Currently there is a stronger than normal seasonal pattern because conventional sales are following the normal pattern (more sales in the spring and summer), but distressed sales (foreclosures and short sales) happen all year. So distressed sales have a larger negative impact on prices in the fall and winter.
In the coming months, the key will be to watch the year-over-year change in house prices and to compare to the NSA lows in early 2012. As an example, the September CoreLogic report showed a 0.3% month-to-month decline in September from August, but prices were up 5.0% year-over-year. That was the largest year-over-year increase since 2006.
I think house prices have already bottomed, and that prices will be up close to 5% year-over-year when prices reach the usual seasonal bottom in early 2013.
Click on graph for larger image.
Note: The Case-Shiller September report will be released this coming Tuesday. For this graph, I used Zillow's forecast for September.
This graph shows the month-to-month change in the CoreLogic and NSA Case-Shiller Composite 20 index over the last several years. The CoreLogic index turned negative in the September report (CoreLogic is 3 month weighted average, with the most recent month weighted the most). Case-Shiller NSA will probably turn negative month-to-month in the October report (also a three month average, but not weighted).

Posted: Sun May 14, 17 8:40 am Post subject: Windows XP & 'Ransomware'
I have 2 old machines running XP - one desktop that I built myself and one old laptop. The laptop has more or less kept up with XP updates but the desktop is beyond help I fear. The desktop I use principaly for the old copy of photoshop that runs on it and web development - uploading via ftp to the various websites I look after . The laptop has a copy of Railmaster (DCC model railway control) - which needs internet access.
Can't get updates for browsers for either machine as far as I can see (as browsers no longer supported on XP).
Any suggestions as to what practical steps can I take (ideally costing nothing of course) to keep the machines relatively safe?

Could run Linux for everyday use. Should work on the existing hardware, at worst it might want a bigger (or an extra) HDD.
It might even manage to run the Windows software through WINE or whatever (though tbh I would be surprised).

the uk's boomers run on a tweaked version of xp
although the current ransomeware stuff is messy it isnt as serious to infrastructure as the stuxnet style of attacks which exploit software to physically destroy hardware components which can be a safety critical part of a potentially dangeroos and/or vital piece of infrastructure plant.
break a valve or speed regulator or whatever and cause a meltdown or take out a power or water supply for months is quite possible, stuxnet and it's children showed it to work in practice on a specific bit of kit in a larger system.
iirc various shadowy gov sponsored organisations have been creating tools for this type of attack for at least a decade.

which API calls do I use to create and download a FedEx shipping label ?
Is this ShipRush Web? If so, you'd be making calls to this endpoint: shipment/ship
You'll want to reference Sections 9.6 for print control options and 9.7 for ship functions
I am currently stuck with this error. I am using the provided test file, from the documentation zip file: ship_fdx_gnd_dom_laser.req .
I believe this is the same structure as page 33 in the documentation also.
I am sending the request like this:
curl -k -X POST https://sandbox.api.my.shiprush.com/.../shipment/ship -H "X-SHIPRUSH-SHIPPING-TOKEN:hiding-this-from-public" -H "Content-Type:application/xml" -d -H "Content-Type:application/xml" -d @ship_fdx_gnd_dom_laser.req
and receiving this error
<Error xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"><Message>The data at the root level is invalid.

Are you sending this to your own sandbox account, or the one provided in the example cURL examples? I ran the above command from a cmd prompt with the provided sandbox account, and got a shipment response back with label.

Hey everyone, I hope everyone is enjoying the content so far. Recently I decided to run a comic from start to finish in under a month. Let me know how you feel about that. Okay so we got some good news and some bad news. The good news is that the next comic will be Gillygan 2 coming in the next update. In addition, all the holiday pinups for February are done and will be release on schedule. They look great and I can't wait to release them. We'll also have a "Hood Trailer" available in March which was a fun project to play with. Finally, Enigmawing and I will be working with Carnal Comix to release a Demi comic for both the site and for publication under Carnal Comics. Enigmawing volunteered to do the full cover while I'll be pencilling about 5 pages of Demi's 40+ page comic. We're both excited to work on Demi and we can't wait to show you the final product.
The bad news here is that because all the holidays all land on a Sunday/Monday, Hood 3 will not be updated again til Febrary 27th. Also, Libertywoman (which is scheduled to run this month), will now be updated a little differently with only one page being update a month. This will allow Sharpie to give the title some quality and polish and have time to work on his own titles Fusion, DrunkDuck's crossover (happening right now), and his Justice League parody. And the Dangergirl parody (which is scheduled to be released after the Spartacus parody) may see a delay due to the fact that it's not done yet. Shelly and I are working very hard to get it done on time but if it is not done on time, we will release a different comic (possibly the Aspen parody) in its place.

T he local arm of a charitable effort that raised several thousand dollars for people in need is poised to help even more people this year.
Bell ringers for the annual Salvation Army red kettle campaign will soon be out again in Whitehall and Granville, "Doing the Most Good."
Last year's bell-ringing campaign, which was the first of its type held in Granville, collected more than $5,000. Nearly that entire amount — 90 percent — helped people from Granville, Whitehall and Hampton, with necessities, such as food, prescription medicines, heating assistance, backpacks, rent, utility payments, assistance for a family whose belongings were destroyed in a fire and more.
And with the need expected to be even greater this year, organizers plan to expand the effort into Whitehall as well as increase the number of locations in Granville.
"We expect even more requests for help, especially when it comes to things like fuel oil," said. The Rev. Jim Peterson, pastor of the First Baptist Church in Whitehall, the Granville Baptist Church, and one of eight committee members who organizes the fundraiser locally.
Organizers plan to add an extra kettle in a to-be-determined location in Granville, which will be in addition to a kettle at Price Chopper. They will also have one at Green Mountain Marketplace on Smith Street in Whitehall
"We certainly hope to hit $5,000 again and the with the added bell ringing stations, we might as well shoot for $10,000 because there is that much need, or at least we certainly anticipate that much need," said Peterson.
Approximately 30 people and several different organizations, including local churches, Scouts, school groups and the CWI volunteered last year to collect money.
"Last year we did very well getting volunteers. It was kind of amazing," Peterson said. "It's been a real good community-wide effort with people from the Lions and other service organizations helping. It hasn't been just one group or church," Peterson said.
Organizers are hoping to enlist even more volunteers this year and are looking for anyone who is available from 3 to 7 p.m. on Thursdays and Fridays and 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturdays. Other times can also be arranged.
"It's a good way for the young people to do some community service," said Peterson.
"Doing the Most Good" is the motto for the Salvation Army and refers to the idea of using the limited money available to do the most good possible for the most people possible.
The red kettles are the Salvation Army's primary fundraiser.
"It's empowering to see through a community's generosity, the Salvation Army is able to respond quickly to those in need. Every holiday season, I'm humbled by the fact that residents in our area are so eager to give people in need the chance to rebuild their lives," said Forrest Kimball, a field representative of the Salvation Army in northern New York.
Besides the bell ringing, there are also several "mini" kettles up year around in several stores in the area — an effort they began earlier this year — that have raised a few hundred dollars in the couple of months they've been there.
This year's bell ringing campaign is expected to begin this week. Anyone who would like to volunteer is encouraged to call Peterson at 642-2245, or email Laura McDermott at [email protected]

In many non-verbal ways we'd been planning it for a few days. Despite us both being virgins, and despite us only dating for a few months, the idea was natural. One night we went up to his room, after a few glasses of dutch-courage and began kissing.
It's funny, because in the movies it had always seemed awkward, uncomfortable, with a lot of umming and aahhing about where things fitted, asking how ready each of you were, and lots of pauses to gaze into one another's eyes in affirmation. For us, there was no awkwardness. The music was cheesy, but memorable. The lights were dim but bright enough to see. There were no pauses. We didn't need verbal affirmation. There was so much love. The whole thing flowed as if it had always been happening.
The next day I couldn't stop smiling. The best thing was that when I saw him later that day, he couldn't stop smiling either.

As El Niño gives way to La Niña, widespread wet weather is expected to be followed by drier conditions and warmer than normal temperatures. So what do El Niño and La Niña mean for corn, soybeans, wheat and rice producers?
A new report issued by AgriBank, the St. Paul-based Farm Credit Bank finds that during prior El Niño-to-La Niña periods, crop prices tended to spike in reaction to lower yields. However, for 2016, the normally favorable transition year most likely won't offset current pricing headwinds. Those pricing headwinds include recent domestic bumper crops, ample worldwide corn and soybean stocks, and a strong U.S. dollar that hinders exports.
The report provides an overview of recent weather patterns and forecasts and their impact on crop production across the 15-state AgriBank District, including corn, soybeans, wheat and rice. It follows last year's report on the impacts of El Niño on production.
- EL NIÑO BRINGS WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION. Current El Niño weather patterns have jogged a bit further north than normal. This has delivered more widespread – and in some cases, unexpected – wet weather across the country.
- LA NIÑA TO FOLLOW WITH WARMER, DRIER CONDITIONS. As El Niño gradually gives way to an expected La Niña event later this year, temperatures from May through July are forecast to remain above normal, while precipitation is forecast to be below average for much of the eastern part of the District, with southern Michigan, northern Indiana and all of Ohio having the strongest odds for drier conditions.
- NEGLIBLE IMPACT ON COMMODITY PRICES. While the El Niño weather pattern will likely persist through the spring, it has yet to materially affect price futures on grains and oilseeds. Taken as a whole, this scenario does not support any strong upward price moves for the upcoming season.
"Commodity prices have been reset down drastically over the past couple of years and have had a direct impact on producers' profitability," said Jeff Swanhorst, AgriBank executive vice president of credit and chief credit officer. "Based on available commodity price forecasts, I expect a similar price environment in crops over the next three to five years unless we have a significant weather event here in the U.S. or another major crop-producing country."
AgriBank Farm Credit Bank provides financial solutions to meet the needs of production agriculture in America's heartland. We feature our research and analysis in AgriBank Insights as part of our AgriThought initiative to help inform the financial decisions among those we serve.

Registering your dog is an important aspect of responsible pet ownership. There are many registries from which to choose, the most well-known being the American Kennel Club (AKC). Registering your dog with one of these esteemed organizations grants you access to educational and informational services, and allows your dog to participate in dog events and competitions.
Part 1 of 2:
Choosing Where to Register Your Dog
1Learn why you should register your dog. Regardless of which dog registry you are considering, it is important for you to understand the benefits of dog registration. For example, registering your dog provides valid proof that you are his owner.[1] X Research source Obtaining this proof is one of the first steps towards becoming a responsible pet owner.[2] X Research source
- If your dog is purebred, registering him helps ensure that his pedigree remains intact from one generation to the next.[3] X Research source
- Purebred dog registries provide other benefits, such as maintenance of birth records.[4] X Research source
- You can still enjoy the benefits of dog registration even if your dog is not purebred. Registries such as the Dog Registry of America and the National Hybrid Registry accept non-purebred dogs.[5] X Research source
- Remember that registration is not proof of breed quality.[6] X Research source This is more applicable if you are looking to purchase a purebred dog, rather than registering your own.
- If you are only interested in registering your dog for proof of ownership, then getting an Identichip/microchip implanted in your dog is best. If your dog gets lost and is picked up by a rescue, the shelter will scan the chip, pick up the unique number, and be able to reunite the two of you.
2Determine where you want to register your dog. The three most reputable and well-known all-breed registries in North America are the AKC, the United Kennel Club, and the Canadian Kennel Club.[7] X Research source It may be helpful to start your search with these registries to determine if your dog is eligible for registration.
EXPERT TIPBeverly Ulbrich, MBA
- The website http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/dogregistry/dogclubsregistries.htm provides a comprehensive list of dog registries for both purebred and non-purebred dogs.
- If you have a service dog, consider registering him with a service dog registry, such as the United States Service Dog Registry.[8] X Research source
- Some dog breeds are so rare that they are not listed on the more common dog registries. The American Rare Breed Association has a registry for rare dog breeds (e.g., wirehaired Vizsla, miniature American shepherd).[9] X Research source
- There are also breed-specific registries, such as the registry associated with the Australian Shepherd Club of America.[10] X Research source
Dog Behaviorist & Trainer
The most important place to register your dog is a microchip registry. That way, if your dog gets lost and its collar is missing, someone can scan the dog and locate you.
3Avoid suspicious or non-reputable dog registries. Not all dog registries are created equal. Dog registries that primarily cater to puppy mills are not reputable and should be avoided. Also, be suspicious of dog registries that do not require a valid proof of pedigree.
EXPERT TIPPippa Elliott, MRCVS
- Do not use dog registries that require only a photo of your dog as proof of his pedigree.
- Reputable dog registries are non-profit organizations. Be wary of dog registries that are for-profit companies.
- Avoid dog registries that do not have a code of ethics or set of standards that registrants must follow.
- Some online registries may be especially unscrupulous by charging unreasonably high fees or disappearing after receiving your payment.[11] X Research source
- Consider speaking with your veterinarian, other dog owners, or a reputable breeder for recommendations on respectable registries.
Did You Know? Microchips are different from tracking chips. Microchips typically just give information about the dog, like its name and birthdate, as well as information about where it lives and to whom the dog belongs. Trackers, on the other hand, often don't give this information and just provide location signals.Advertisement
Part 2 of 2:
Registering Your Dog
1Fill out and submit the application. Although the application format itself will vary from one dog registry to another, the required information is generally the same. For example, you will need to provide your contact information and specific information about your dog (breed, name, sex, date of birth).[12] X Research source
- Other registration requirements may include information about your dog's breeder, [13] X Research source photos of your dog, [14] X Research source and a three-generation pedigree certificate.[15] X Research source
- Requesting the three-generation pedigree certificate will probably require additional payment.[16] X Research source
- To register your dog through the AKC, you will need to obtain the registration application from the breeder from whom you purchased your dog.[17] X Research source
- If you are registering your service dog, you will likely need to provide valid proof of your disability.[18] X Research source
- If payment is required, be aware that your payment may be nonrefundable.[19] X Research source
- Some dog registries will have applications that you can fill out and submit online. For others, you may have to download the application from their website and fill it out by hand.
2Wait for your registration certificate. The length of time between submitting your application and receiving your dog's official registration certificate will vary between dog registries. For example, the registration process usually takes about three weeks for the AKC.[20] X Research source Consider contacting the registry if its website does not provide information on when you can expect to receive the registration certification following submission of the application.
3Check the accuracy of the registration certificate. It is important to carefully read through the information on your dog's registration certificate. Contact the registry if you notice any errors or inaccuracies on the certificate.[21] X Research sourceAdvertisement
Community Q&A
QuestionCan I register a pet that was a gift and came with no papers?Yes, although consider why you wish to register the dog. If it is because you want to be able to prove ownership or be reunited if the dog is lost, then consider getting them microchipped. An ID chip is a permanent means of ID, and your contact details are logged on a central database.
QuestionDoes my dog need to be neutered if I want to register him?No. Registration is more about proving ownership and hopefully settling any disputes should he be stolen or get lost. As such, neutering status is irrelevant.
QuestionWhat if you don't have information about the dog's parents?This will prevent you from registering a purebred dog with the AKC or UKC, but not with any number of hybrid dog registers. However, you should ask yourself: what is your motivation for registering the dog? If it is to prove ownership, then implanting an ID chip and registering the number is a legal and binding way to show that you own the dog.
QuestionHow do I get papers for my dog?Community AnswerYou may register your dog at your veterinarian's office.
QuestionHow can I get a companion license so that my dog can go into stores with me?Community AnswerIt depends on whether your dog is considered a service animal or an emotional support animal. Service dogs need 18-24 months of training and are considered medical equipment. Service dogs are permitted many places where typical pets are not. To have your dog considered an emotional support dog, you need a note from a doctor saying the dog is necessary to your mental health, however, emotional support dogs are typically not allowed anywhere a pet would not be allowed.
QuestionI have to shift another country and I want my dog to come with me, so what are the requirements for that?Community AnswerThat depends on which country you are moving from and which country you are moving to. Check the government website covering quarantine laws for the country you're leaving from. Usually dogs are okay but there will be special requirements, in some case quarantine periods and in most cases, fees to be paid. Some breeds might not be permitted, depending on local laws. You'll need vet papers, showing the latest vaccinations and health status of your dog. Your veterinarian can help you with more specific advice as well.
QuestionWhat is the purpose of registering dogs?M.ranajitCommunity AnswerLicensing your pet is very important. If your dog or cat gets lost, a license may protect a lost pet from rapid euthanasia.
QuestionCan I register my dog if I do not know its exact date of birth?Community AnswerYes, but try to find the date if you can by asking the previous owner or shelter. If you really can't find the date, then put "N/A" on the form, or tell the vet that you don't know the date of birth.
QuestionIs there a way to register a Rottweiler as a service dog?Community AnswerYes. All you have to do is find a company that will give you the supplies you need to train your dog and certify them as a service dog. You can find a company near you online.
QuestionCan I register my dog if the breeder didn't register the litter, but I have pictures of my dog's parents registrations?Community AnswerYes, you can register your dog with the Designer Breed Registry if you have pictures of the parents registrations.
How do I get my dog license number if I lost the previous number?
What do I need to enter my dog in local shows?
How do I determine if my dog is full blooded?
How do I register my pitbull? How do I start doing it?
How do I determine if my dog is full blooded? How do I register my dog to show it's a full blood?
- If you are interested in registering your service dog, be mindful that he should be certified as a service dog before he is registered. Oftentimes, certification is more important to a service dog's qualifications than registration.[22] X Research sourceThanks!
- The AKC offers an alternative program called the Purebred Alternative Listing (PAL) for purebred dogs who are not eligible for AKC certification.[23] X Research source The PAL allows purebred dogs to participate in AKC events, such as agility trials and hunt tests.Thanks!
- Be aware that there are no legally recognized registries for service dogs in the US. Any that claim to be an official registry are a scam.Thanks!
