Most vets find ear cropping and debarking to be unethical and wrong. Yet many of these same vets are declawing cats.
Don't you think it's time for a wake up call for these vets to start putting the welfare of cats on the same level as dogs?
Some of the things that I found interesting in this study are as follows.
1) The percentage of cats that are declawed in America hasn't changed even though there is more education and awareness.
2) When declawing is performed with spay/neuter the cats were more likely to have postoperative complications than were cats that underwent either procedure alone.
The AVMA doesn't want to upset the majority of their 88,000 vet members who declaw kitties so they hold on to these antiquated and outdated myths and completely ignore facts and new studies. Facts that they publish in their own JAVMA.
4) Veterinarians and cat owner declaw cats even though it is very painful for the cats.
5) Both long term and short term complications and behavioral issues were confirmed in these studies.
6) There is clear evidence of pain and postoperative complications with declawing no matter how it is performed, with a guillotine nail clipper, laser, and scalpel.
Here is the part of the study that involves declawing.
all or most of the distal phalanx with a nail clipper.
Removal of the distal phalanx with a surgical laser appears to be the quickest procedure and is associated with lower levels of postoperative stress and pain than removal with a scalpel. However, it has also has been associated with a higher number of postoperative complications in the days following the procedure. Transection of the tendons of the deep flexor muscle (ie, tendonectomy) is sometimes performed as an alternative to onychectomy, as it prevents extension of the claws and results in fewer signs of pain. Both onychectomy and tendonectomy should be performed only by veterinarians with appropriate anesthesia and postoperative analgesia.
Declawing is usually performed to prevent scratching-related injuries to people and damage to property.
Recent surveys of veterinarians indicate that aggression and property destruction due to scratching are frequent behavior problems reported by cat owners. Scratching of people and other animals is undesirable because of the potential for injury and infection, particularly in people who are immuno-compromised.
In some cases, this scratching may be intentional and related to aggression, but in others it is unintentional during play and handling. There appears to be a relatively high prevalence of aggression in owned cats, with recent research suggesting 36% of cats display aggression toward their owners and almost 50% of cats display aggression toward either familiar or unfamiliar people.
However, although declawing will prevent scratching-related injuries, it is unlikely to resolve the problem of aggression in general owing to the potential for cats to bite as an alternative to scratching. More research is needed to identify means to prevent aggression-related behaviors by cats toward their owners.
Scratching items in the environment is a normal behavior that serves a number of functions for cats, including territorial marking and nail conditioning.
Farm cats have been reported to scratch between 1 and 6 times a day. Scratching behavior is driven almost entirely by the presence of conspecifics but is still present in cats housed singly in homes. Although it is a normal behavior, environmental scratching is generally deemed to be undesirable by owners because it can lead to property damage. While recent estimates of the prevalence of environmental scratching are unavailable, 2 older studies suggest that 15% to 25% of cats show inappropriate scratching of property, with one of these studies indicating that scratching might increase the risk of cat relinquishment.
Although declawing is 1 method of preventing scratching damage, there are alternative methods that do not involve surgery.
For example, owners can provide appropriate outlets for scratching and trim their cats' nails regularly. Therefore, when this procedure is requested, every effort should be made to educate and assist owners of cats to pursue possible alternatives that could alleviate the need for surgery.
The National Council for Pet Population has estimated that approximately 14.4 million of the 59 million cats in the United States are declawed. Similarly, a recent study43 reported that 20% of cats admitted in the Raleigh, NC, area had undergone declawing or, more specifically, onychectomy.
Interestingly, the percentage of cats that are declawed has apparently not changed in the past decade despite the growing controversy surrounding the procedure.
In a survey conducted by Yeon et al, cats reportedly continued to make scratching movements following declawing, but 91% of owners surveyed had an overall positive attitude about the procedure, whether onychectomy or tendonectomy.
Various studies have demonstrated that onychectomy causes postoperative pain in cats.
discharge. Cloutier et al found that even when cats were treated with butorphanol before surgery, they had evidence of postoperative pain, as determined by comparison with control cats that underwent a sham procedure. Both of these studies involved removal of the distal phalanx with a scalpel or clipper, but recent studies assessing the effect of laser removal suggest that this procedure also results in postoperative pain, although to a lesser degree than that associated with other methods.
Clark et al found that cats that under went laser onychectomy were less reluctant to jump after surgery than were cats in which onychectomy was performed with a scalpel or clipper.
Similarly, Holmberg and Brisson compared pain scores during the 10 days following onychectomy with either a scalpel or a laser and found that both groups had elevated pain scores during the first 9 days but that the mean score over the first 7 days was higher for the scalpel group, compared with the laser group.
Finally, Robinson et al assessed limb function by measuring ground reaction forces following laser or scalpel onychectomy and found that forces were reduced in both groups following surgery, but the reduction was greater in the scalpel group.
1 study found that tendonectomy resulted in lower pain scores, compared with onychectomy, during the first 24 hours after surgery, another study found no differences in pain scores when comparing the 2 procedures.
Jankowski et al reported differences in post-operative complications associated with the 2 procedures. Of 18 cats that underwent onychectomy, 1 had severe postoperative pain and another had long-term lameness. Of 20 cats that underwent tendonectomy, 1 had long-term lameness, but owners of 6 cats expressed dissatisfaction with the procedure because of continued scratching and issues with claw growth and trimming.
Although both onychectomy and tendonectomy have the potential to cause acute postoperative pain, it is likely that a multimodal analgesic approach will provide adequate pain control. Although a review of all studies assessing efficacy of analgesic regimens for control of postoperative pain following onychectomy and tendonectomy is beyond the scope of the current discussion, we encourage future research to determine which analgesic regimes are commonly used in current veterinary practice and whether they are sufficient.
A number of studies have assessed short-term and long-term postoperative complication rates following onychectomy. Short-term postoperative complications following onychectomy include pain and associated lameness, hemorrhage, swelling, infection, and changes in behavior.
Pollari and Bonnett examined the risk of postoperative complications when onychectomy was performed alone or in combination with other surgeries and reported that cats that underwent onychectomy in combination with ovariohysterectomy or castration were more likely to have postoperative complications than were cats that underwent either procedure alone.
This was particularly concerning because 53% of cats underwent both procedures.
and the method of claw removal.
(15.4% vs 6.5% and 3.4%).
Other long-term complications include persistent lameness and signs of chronic pain.
Clark et al reported the highest rates of pain-related complications, with up to 23% of cats having ongoing lameness and 42.3% of cats showing signs of pain on paw palpation.
Owners have also reported long-term behavioral changes in cats following onychectomy such as house soiling and an increased resistance to allowing the paws to be handled or an increased incidence or severity of biting, compared with behavior before the procedure.
A study of 128 Italian cat owners found that sexually intact male cats were more likely to scratch other surfaces when a scratching post was absent from the environment, and Cozzi et al reported that a feline interdigital semiochemical, a cat pheromone replacement made of fatty acids, can be used to control excess behavioral scratching through placement of this substance on a desired scratching location.
Behavior modification methods may also decrease environmental scratching.
Given clear evidence of pain and postoperative complications with declawing, this procedure should be considered as a last resort after all other behavior modifying measures have been attempted and when the only other alternative is relinquishment or euthanasia.
We strongly believe that in a clinical setting, surgical procedures should be performed on animals only if they have or can be expected to have clear benefits for the animal or the population as a whole. At a minimum, the procedures discussed in the present review all cause some degree of acute pain and are associated with some risk of infection or other adverse effects.
Society's attitudes toward dogs and cats have changed over time, likely because of decreased social distance, with the result that attitudes toward certain procedures that were once considered acceptable are now being reconsidered.
In many countries, discussions among broad ranges of stakeholders have resulted in legislation banning surgical procedures that are considered elective or unnecessary.
that pain. This appears to be true in the case of the procedures discussed in the present review, which are known to be painful but are still commonly performed. We recommend the following strategies for enacting change in Canada and the United States with regards to MUSs in dogs and cats.
First, further research and education are needed on effective methods for preventing or treating the underlying behavior problems that traditionally have resulted in declawing, devocalization, and defanging.
Second, further research on public attitudes toward MUSs is needed; specifically, understanding the beliefs and values held by the public must be a priority, as only then will it be possible to encourage policy and legislation that accurately reflect the views of current society.
Third, veterinarians should take a leadership role in educating both owners and the broader public on the important topic of MUSs in dogs and cats.
The facts are that the veterinary associations and pro-declaw vets don't want declawing banned because they say that they are the "licensed professional veterinarians" who know how to make the best medical decisions for their clients and patients.
I think we have given them enough time to step up to the plate and show that the educate cat owners and the public about the humane alternatives and also about what declawing really is.
In my humble opinion and from all the information that I have gathered in the last 3 years, it is obvious that most pro-declaw vets perform declawing as a first option, don't counsel clients, or make sure their clients have seriously tried all the humane alternatives that are available.
I'll let you be the judge. Here are just some of the many examples that I've found on veterinary practice's websites or social media pages.

Chiropractor Cracks 4 Day Old Premature Newborn's Back
Apr 23, 2016 -edited
Despite weak evidence supporting the efficacy of chiropractors (and no evidence supporting treatment of non-musculoskeletal conditions), there are over 45,000 chiropractors in the United States alone, who collectively earn about $3 billion annually. A chiropractor specializes in cracking bones "correcting vertebral subluxations" in your back, despite subluxations not being an actual thing.
A chiropractor is not a medical doctor, yet they routinely make the leap into providing medical advice. Some chiropractors outright deny germ theory, as they believe diseases are caused by the spine being misaligned, and are against vaccinations (despite vaccine efficacy being supported by evidence). Many chiropractors encourage their patients to avoid spending money on pharmaceutical drugs due to belief in some sort of elaborate conspiracy (while hypocritically reaching for medication themselves). A select few go as far as to claim that they can cure cancer. Then there are chiropractors like Ian Rossborough, located just outside of Melbourne, Australia, who practice on children and newborns.
Rossborough has a YouTube channel where he posts videos of himself treating his patients. On his website, he claims to treat a range of illnesses in adults and children alike, from serious spine injuries to ear infections. In January, he posted a video where he treated a four day old premature newborn. Reportedly, the newborn was crying all night due to reflux and colic. Rossborough explained that the cause of this particular newborn's colic is due to milk fermenting in the child's stomach, resulting from a "patch" on the child's spine being wrong, because: reasons. (We'll ignore the fact that the underlying cause of colic is unknown.)
In the video below, after locating a "patch" on the child's back, Rossborough explains to the newborn's mother what he will be doing to the child. He explains that because the newborn is so flexible, he will have to "get some extension" in the child's spine. As he gets ready to crack the newborn's back, he says "I have to, unfortunately, distend her a little bit to get it in the right place." Immediately afterwards, a loud crack is heard as Rossborough presses down firmly on the infant's spine.
Why a parent would allow someone other than a licensed medical professional to provide any sort of medical treatment on their child, nevermind a newborn, is beyond me. There is absolutely no evidence to support the notion that newborns need "adjusting." However, there is evidence that chiropractors have harmed children. In 2013, an Australian chiropractor broke an infant's neck. A few years ago, a six year old child's stroke was linked to an adjustment done by a chiropractor. There are also incidents were adults have died from a stroke shortly after having a chiropractor "adjust" them.
The president of The Royal Australian College of General Practitioners, Dr. Frank Jones, told the Daily Mail that "there is actually no evidence whatsoever that manipulating the spine makes any difference to things such as colic or asthma." The month after this video was posted, Dr. John Cunningham (a spinal surgeon in Melbourne) filed a formal complaint with the Australian Health Practitioners Regulation Agency, who oversees the Chiropractic Board, requesting that the Board itself be removed.
Dr. Cunningham added:
There would be risks of harm. There would be risks that the child could suffer some sort of fracture. Why would you do it? This is the thing that goes through my mind when I watch that video. Why on earth would you do that to a newborn?
The video may be disturbing for some to watch.
The video has been edited for length, but you can watch the full original video. If you're not already angry enough, you can watch eight more videos of chiropractors "adjusting" newborn children on the Debunking Denialism blog.

Elon Musk Plans to Open Tesla Cybertruck and Model Y Factories in U.S.
Mar 11 2020 · 13:29 UTC by Steve Muchoki · 3 min read

Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced that the company has plans to expand its production in the U.S. Cybertruck and Model Y factories are to be opened there.
Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA) Co-Founder and CEO Elon Musk went to Twitter to announce that the company is set to open a Tesla Cybertruck gigafactory in the central USA, while Model Y production set for the east coast. It is a bold move to invest billions of money at these uncertain times headed by coronavirus stock panic.
Scouting locations for Cybertruck Gigafactory. Will be central USA.
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) March 11, 2020
The Cybertruck model was unveiled in Los Angeles at a colorful event in November hosted by Musk himself, whereby, the truck once fully produced and loaded will start at $39,900. The truck is set to compete with the Ford F series and also the Chevrolet Silverado from General motors.
Model Y production for east coast too
The Model Y which was unveiled back in March 2019, is an electric compact crossover utility vehicle that production begun in January 2020. The first batch of deliveries on Model Y is set to begin by the first quarter of this year, where Tesla announced it is the second vehicle to be based on the model 3 sedan.
The decision made by Tesla Inc on where to set up the gigafactory was significantly influenced by the state incentives, access to a skilled workforce and also a low cost of logistics. The news was a great plus on the falling Tesla (TSLA) stock, which at the time of writing gave indications of rising above the all-time highs.
The news was welcomed warmly by his twitter followings, however, it is not to be thrown under the table how Elon gives promises which never meets deadlines. Back in 2016, Elon was quoted promising Tesla customers a drive itself across the American roads by the end of the following year, which only came to be preemptive promises.
Effect of the Cybertruck Factory and Model Y on Tesla
Tesla as an electric auto-car maker has been greatly hit by the coronavirus and crude oil turmoil that has dominated the stock market up to now. The company which has its huge production based in mainland China, closed all of its operations to help the local authority control the spread of coronavirus.
As a result, most deliveries were delayed for weeks if not months, resulting in the free fall of the stock. As the coronavirus continues spreading fears in the American territory after the CDC confirmed the 1,000+ cases, it remains a wonder if the promise will be achieved due to the lock-down taking place on the ground.
However, it is a bold move that might be the savior to the company which has been marred by crazy speculation on its stock market.

underside
rhinophores
cerata
probable egg mass
Stiliger sp. #6
Maximum size: about 10 mm.
Identification: This is a slender species with long, spindle-shaped cerata and very long rhinophores. The body, cerata, rhinophores and cephalic tentacles are variously decorated with iridescent-white flecks and sub-dermal cream spots. The tips of the larger cerata and rhinophores are frosted with gray. There is a diffuse, dark gray-green line between the eye spots and diffuse, dark gray-green patches on the central notum as well as a translucent white patch on the pericardium. Branches of the digestive gland run throughout the body, down the centers of the cerata and along the ventral margins of the rhinophores. In older animals, the dark markings may become less pronounced and the branches of the digestive gland more elaborate.
Natural history: Stiliger sp. #6 was known from only two animals prior to Oct., 2022 (one each from the Big Island and Oahu). Those two were found at highly protected sites. However, 15+ animals were recently found at a moderately exposed site on Maui. Depths ranged from 3-6 m (10-20 ft). The Maui animals were in filamentous algae (probably a Cladophora sp.) on which they were probably feeding. It readily autotomizes its large central cerata. (Note 1) It probably lays a white, slightly arced egg mass.
Distribution: Big Island, Maui and Oahu: also known from Okinawa and Bali.
Taxonomic notes: It was first recorded in Hawaii from Kaneohe Bay, Oahu by Terry Gosliner in the 1970s.
Photo: Terry Gosliner: Kaneohe Bay, Oahu; 1970s.
Note 1: The sub-dermal cream spots in the tips of its cerata appear to have ducts connecting to the surface suggesting that they may be glands, perhaps secreting defensive chemicals. Meanwhile, the small, dense-green spots on the lateral cerata (that aren't typically autotomized) are suggestive of retained chloroplasts that may be contributing to it's nutrition.

The importance of taking full advantage of the space of the warehouses requires solutions which make it possible to access the highest levels. One of these solutions consists of installing high-bay racking with one or several levels of gangways or elevated aisles supported on the racking itself.
Access to the different levels of gangways is made by means of stairways located in suitable places, fitted in function of accessibility and safety. As a compliment to the stairways, freight lifts or scissors lifts can also be installed.
Access to the different levels of gangways is made by means of stairways located in suitable places, fitted in function of accessibility and safety. These Multi-tier Long Span Shelving Systems can increase the amount of storage capacity.
The different potential combinations make it possible to adapt to the characteristics of the warehouse, and to needs such as accessibility, safety and ergonomic work. These are several possibilities for the location of the access stairways; at the side, at the front, in the center of the installation or between two racks as can be seen in these examples. At Jay Storage Solutions, we provide you with the best quality and genuine products. Contact us to know more.

Here are some testimonials, feedback and reviews we've received from our customers. You can also see reviews left by our customers on Google and Facebook.
I love Tim. His generosity, expertise and thoughtful responsiveness sets the bar for masterful service and exemplary professionalism. I "accidentally" found Photographers Tech Support the day I purchased a spanking new Good Gallery site with a 73 page user manual. On page 2 my eyes glazed. I became quite sleepy. I took a nap. I drank some expresso. I emailed Tim. That was the best email I have sent in years. Tim consistently exceeds my expectations not only with his technical precision but more importantly with his gracious humility and kindness. Tim's work is artful mastery of a mysterious tech language. I am deeply grateful and fortunate to be his client.
Support is an understatement for the work Tim did for my business!! Tim at Photographers Tech Support was invaluable to me. Everything about his help went above and beyond all I could have hoped for. Tim did an amazing job with technical work around email migration to Google, plus SEO, reliability, and performance work on WordPress and Good Gallery. He took the time to explain it all to me in terms I could understand which is huge to me! I think he knows more than humanly possible about all things tech. Tim is seriously the best contractor/tech guy I have ever worked with! I HIGHLY recommend Photographers Tech Support!! If I could give him 10 stars I would (and I don't usually give out top stars!)!!! Use this guy, you will be thrilled!
I came across the link for Tim's website in a Facebook group where someone was recommending people to help with SEO. I'm so glad I clicked on the link and after reading his reviews and packages I was sold and wasted no time in getting in contact with him.
Everything said about Tim and his services in the reviews are 100% accurate, he was incredibly easy to deal with and no question was too stupid or tedious for him to answer. His communication is brilliant, particularly for someone like me who is not so "techy" and he really went above and beyond to make sure I knew exactly what he was doing and how long it would take. Even after he had finished he was good enough to take a look at a few small things that I needed extra help with.
I would 100% recommend Tim to anyone who needs help in this area, he definitely is an expert in his field and goes the extra mile for his clients.
Kathy from Silke Photography, Dublin, Ireland.
We did some SEO and WordPress work for Kathy, including changing her website domain name to a country specific domain, moving the website to faster local hosting, improving the SEO of the pages, and giving advice on how to keep improving Google rankings herself.
I reached out to Tim to help transition my email to gmail as it was just too technical for me to do. Tim made this happen seamlessly and took the stress out of it for me, he just knew what to do which was great.
He also did some work on my WordPress website to speed it up, tweak the format and add tabs and tags etc for me. It was great having someone do this for me who knew what they we doing. Tim also did some SEO work for me on my website and provided me with tips on best practices for SEO in the future.
I can highly recommend Tim, he knows his stuff, he's very obliging, consistently quick in responding to emails and reasonably priced. He's just awesome.
Note from Tim – we did a migration from standard Unix web hosting to Gmail, WordPress performance, SEO, and some mobile WordPress work for Natalie.
I was overwhelmed as a new small business owner and my friends had worked with Tim and recommended him to "tweak" my website. He was amazingly quick to respond to my many questions. Not only did he do work for my SEO, he helped with many formatting issues. Tim made my SquareSpace website unique and I couldn't be happier with the result. I will continue to use Tim as my business grows and you should too!
Note from Tim – we did some work on customizing Brooke's SquareSpace site, adding maps, lots of content and formatting work, setting up Google Analytics, and a few other miscellaneous little things.
"We came to Tim with a long list of questions and those questions from us never ceased. He answered each throughout his great email communication as well as regular updates on the work he was doing. He was very thorough, trustworthy, allowed us to share passwords securely or gave instruction on setting up limited access through our various web based systems. He never tried to access something not already discussed without bringing it to our attention first. Thank you Tim." – Jade of Jade Norwood Photography, Adelaide Wedding Photographer.
Note from Tim – Amy is a long term customer of PTS, we manage all of her websites, migrations, WordPress, Good Gallery, SEO, and Internet based systems, including creating systems, maintenance, and upgrades. Amy is a well known wedding photography in the USA.
Note from Tim – we did some performance work for Karen, she later came back to us for more help and we supported her move to Good Gallery.


My 'go to' recipe for wheat bread makes a double loaf (two loaves) and uses about 6 cups of white wheat flour. I usually end up doing a wheat blend, mostly white wheat with a bit of soft and a bit of hard red in it but I think using all hard white wheat berries turns out a fabulous loaf.
For sandwiches, I find my husband is more likely to make one if the bread is square. Years of using square store bought bread I guess. When it's a full round or regular homemade shaped loaf he loves it fresh with butter, for soups, for garlic bread, etc. but he's a man of habit and doesn't 'think about' sandwiches unless the slices are square! Since square pans are rather expensive (for our budget) I only own one (1) right now so you'll see in the photo's below I usually bake this is one traditional style bread pan and one square. Square pans are thicker and tend to need a longer bake time so increase the time by about 10-15 minutes and test.
Combine water, yeast, oil, honey and salt. Add 5 c flour, mix on slow in a heavy duty mixer with bread hook. Add 1-2 cups more flour as needed to form a dough ball. This will change with the temperature, humidity level, time of year, etc. Knead 5-10 minutes. If your home is chilly or it's winter time, heat your oven to just barely 100 degrees and turn it off. If it's a nice day anyway, you can usually just turn your oven light on and that is enough warmth to raise your dough. Divide dough in half to form 2 loaves. Place in your greased pans. Cover and let rise in the turned off but still warm oven for about 45 minutes or until doubled in height. Take the bread out and heat oven to 350. Place bread in and bake 25-30 minutes or until done. Remove and cool.
I personally use Palouse brand wheatberries that I buy through Amazon (I'll link at the bottom of this post). There are other brands out there that are just as good, I only use these because I've found they are easy to digest when made into bread and baked goods, while the so-called 'flour' sold in the grocery stores today resemble nothing even close to 'flour' anymore, they've been modified and refined so much. I'm sure they love all the free advertising I do for them as I mention them in most all my bread recipes now, but I buy their products full price, just like everyone else. However they are rather expensive. We don't use much wheat anymore (low carb way of eating mostly) so I do invest in them. If you use a lot of wheat products in your family I would search out a more affordable option.
Wheat mills... I own an affordable manual version (Victorio) and I like it a lot - as long as I only need a bit of wheat flour for breading, thickening, etc. If I need more than 1 cup, I usually opt for an electric mill. To get enough flour to make bread it takes me about 45 minutes of cranking. My arms get tired and I stare out the window in boredom. Honestly, I end up doing it in bits and pieces over 2 days. 2 cups of wheat berries equal 3 cups ground wheat flour. You'll need about 6 - 7 cups of flour for this recipe.
Last Christmas I finally got my wheat mill! I chose The WonderMill. At about $219, it's not cheap but it's not overly expensive either, and it paid for itself within the first couple months of use. Be sure you only use it for 'dry' grains and you start the motor running before adding your wheat berries.
I typically just grab canola oil for this recipe but I've tried various others as well. I didn't have good luck with grape seed oil (I have no idea why, but the loaf just didn't seem to turn out the same). Coconut Oil worked ok but the loaves didn't raise as much that time and honestly I don't know if it was a fluke or the coconut oil. I've used olive oil in a pinch but honestly, I get the best results with plain old canola oil. I had stopped buying it for a long time for health reasons but I do keep it on hand now mostly for bread and it only uses 1/3 cup for 2 loaves.
The dough is starting to come together and pulling away from the sides of the bowl.
This is a bad picture but I mention often that this blog isn't about pretty pictures and heck, I usually forget to take them at all! The reason I hate to use this one is because I didn't have enough dough in the square pan to completely rise to the top. This loaf didn't end up being 'square' as it had a rounded top - it wasn't tall enough for me to bother with the lid that completes the 'sandwich bread' shape that my husband prefers for sandwiches. Eh... it is what it is.

Not from scratch unfortunately. I am a still a newbie baker although I have to say, I do make a pretty mean apple pie from scratch, crumbly crusts and all, thanks to my SIL Lorr's expertise! I had to learn it because Dear Hubby just loves pies! But if you ask me, my favorite baked goodie is a moist and chewy brownie. I love brownies more than cookies and cupcakes, so thank goodness for my friend Paz's discovery!
Thank goodness for life's little pleasures! It made me forget, at least for an hour, these Balenciaga-esque sandals from Nine West. At $89, it's a pretty good deal vs. the originals that had me at hello when I first saw them at Barneys! But! The rational me says I don't need another pair of shoes. Grrr!
I think the Betty Crocker mix are better and using to use EVcoconut oil makes it tastier.
mmm brownies. i usually add a layer of nutella buttercream frosting on mine- ya know, for extra badness (i mean, goodness).
Tin! wahhh make it from scratch! super easy lang! promise! make the other recipe i sent you na! you can do it!
i really love those nine west sandals!!! i'm trying to figure out pa how i'll get it from the US to manila. LOL.
i love brownies...but i love the wedge more! hahaha!
Grace! I'm going home May 12! Email me if you want me to get it for you!
Hahaha this post totally cracked me up! This happens to me sometimes too. I'm in the middle of cooking and then suddenly I think of shoes. A girl just can't get enough.

The benefits of setting goals are well-documented. Studies have shown that those who set goals and work purposefully toward achieving them earn more over their lifetime than those who don't.
But merely setting goals is often just the tip of an iceberg. For example, are they goals that align themselves with your priorities and vision for who you truly want to be? Do they motivate and inspire you? Are they clear?
It's easy to lose track of your goals if you're not consistently looking at them, reminding yourself of the steps you need to take to achieve them, or if they're too vague.
The good news is there are plenty of ways to keep yourself on a track that leads to not only accomplishing your goal, but also leads you to the higher purpose of your life in terms of achievement and the person you truly want to be.
The best goals are those that motivate you, are important to you, and have value in terms of your desire to achieve them. If it's a goal that drives you to achieve it, then keep it. If not, it may not be specific enough or worth striving toward.
If your goal creates an urgency in you to make it happen, you're more likely to pursue it with greater energy and desire.
It's virtually a universal truth that writing your goals down is a big step on the journey to achieving them. But be careful about the language you use as you write them. Being specific and using language such as 'I will' rather than 'I would like to' gives them more power and passion.
Consider also the time frame of your goals. Ask yourself where you want to be in one year, five years, 10 years – and beyond.
Don't set a goal that you have no chance of achieving. On the flip side, don't set goals that are too easy. Instead, find a balance with goals that are realistic but challenging. Meeting those kinds of goals will give you the most satisfaction.
Each goal you set comes with certain tasks you need to do in order to achieve that goal. It's important that you determine which are the most important tasks and prioritize them accordingly. Don't spend time on busy-work tasks that don't lead toward the achievement of your goal in the long run.
In a similar vein, let go of things that can subconsciously hold you back from reaching your goals. Successful people know how to let go of anything that's not aligned with how they want to live and the person they want to be.
Take time every day to clear your mind and think about the person you would like to be, and imagine the end result of achieving your goals. Ask yourself, what will that feel like? How will you celebrate? The power of seeing yourself reaching a goal will inspire you to keep working to attain it.
It can be daunting – even discouraging – to look at where you are now and the distance you need to travel to fulfill your goals. That's why it's important to acknowledge your progress and the achievements you've made along the way. It will boost your morale and provide confidence to carry on.
All of the above strategies, especially if you used on a daily basis, can help you reach the destination you desire. Good luck on the journey.

CLAREMONT, CA. – The Pomona-Pitzer softball program got off to a hot start to the 2018 season, sweeping the Puget Sound Loggers on a Friday doubleheader 4-0 and 4-2. Liz Rodarte continued where she left off last season, making an impact on both ends of the field. In the first game, Rodarte earned her first no-hitter of her career and threw a career-high 14 strikeouts. She also crushed a two-run home run in that same game. In the second half of the doubleheader, she hit her second two-run bomb of the season while making some spectacular plays at first base.
Season Impact: The Sagehens start their season 2-0 while the Puget Sound Loggers drop to a 2-5-1 record.
Aside from Rodarte's incredible outing, Kristen Hong went a perfect 4-for-4 at the plate with a run while Olivia Campion hit 2-for-4 with a run.
Rodarte was in rhythm at the start of the game, striking out the side to start the first. Later, with Olivia Campion on second base and two outs, Rodarte crushed an 0-1 pitch to center field to put the Sagehens up 2-0.
The junior continued to mow down batters, striking out seven consecutive hitters from the second inning to the fourth, only to see her streak end with a pop out in the fifth.
In the bottom of the fifth with bases loaded, Karina Falkstrom added an insurance run thanks to a fielding error from the opposing pitcher to make it 3-0. Later in the sixth, Izzy Deatherage brought home one run off a sacrifice fly to make it 4-0.
Rodarte closed off her historic performance with a 1-2-3 inning in the seventh, catching the final batter looking for the final strikeout.
The Sagehens maintained consistency in their second game, scoring four runs once again while riding on the coattails of another incredible pitching performance, this time by Alondra Reynoso. Reynoso threw a complete game, striking out nine and surrendering only two runs. Izzy Deatherage had a hot hitting performance, going 3-for-4 with a homerun while Rodarte went 1-for-3 with a two-run bomb.
Reynoso ran into a slight jam in the first inning, striking out the first two batters before giving up a walk and a hit to have runners on first and second. However, Rodarte made a diving catch on a bloop floater by Loggers' Erica Gott to get out of the inning.
It was déjà vu in the bottom of the first as Rodarte followed up Olivia Campion's RBI single by crushing a towering two-run shot in the same location as her last homerun to make it 3-0 for the Hens. Deatherage followed with a solo shot that sailed over the left field fence to make it 4-0.
The Loggers got back one run in the top of the fifth when Camille Goo lined an RBI single to right field. At the top of the seventh, Puget Sound cut the lead in half after Abby Brondos belted a single to deep center field to bring in a runner from second base. With no outs, the Loggers looked to get a rally going, but Reynoso kept her cool and collected three straight outs to finish the game.
Up Next: The Sagehens will host SCIAC opponent Cal Lutheran tomorrow for a doubleheader at 12:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m.

8.00 am meeting in a London teaching hospital – I haven't been to one of these for while & I haven't been to one aimed at patients.
Tim Hunt Education Services Manager from Patient Opinion Limited (www.patientopinion.org.uk) spokes about how their company is "the UK's leading independent non-profit feedback platform for health services. Patient Opinion is about honest and meaningful conversations between patients and health services. We believe that your story can help make health services better".

Vasasszentgothárd (románul Sucutard) település Romániában, Erdélyben, Kolozs megyében.

Fekvése
Szamosújvártól délkeletre, a Füzes patak mellett, Cege és Gyeke közt fekvő település.

Története
Vasasszentgothárd nevét 1317-ben, majd 1320-ban említette először oklevél Zentguthard módon írva.

1317-ig Emerich fia Wass Miklós ispánnak, a Czegei Wass család ősének birtoka volt.
1317-ben Károly Róbert király Wass Miklóstól elkobozta a birtokot, de 1321-ben megbocsátott Emerich fia Wass Miklós ispánnak és visszaadta neki Szentgothardot, majd  1324-ben mint öröklött birtokban meg is erősítette őt.

1332-ben már egyházas hely volt, és neve szerepelt a pápai tizedjegyzékben is, ekkor papja 20 denar montanus pápai tizedet fizetett. 1430-ban szentgothardi és mócsi nemeseknek és jobbágyaiknak  Ősi Jankafi György tiltotta, hogy Légen és Palatka határán lévő földjeiket marháikkal legeltessék.

1451-ben Szentegyedi Wass Pál fia Domokos nevében Suky Mihály tiltakozott amiatt, hogy szentegyedi Wass Vid fia István elfoglalta megbízója szentgothardi birtokrészét, arra házast építve a birtoklással 100 arany kárt okozott.

1464. április 13-án kelt oklevél szerint Zentgothardi néhai Wass Vid fia István ősi birtokrészeit (Senthgothard, Pulyon, Szentegyed, Szilvás, Mohaly, Szentiván, Cege) 100 forintért zálogba adta Vasakszentiváni Wass Lászlónak.

1496-ban Polyák Albertné Györgyfalvi Zsófia adta zálogba zentgothardi részét férjének.

A 20. század elején Szolnok-Doboka vármegye Kékesi járásához tartozott.

1910-ben 872 lakosából 104 magyar, 746 román volt. Ebből 763 görögkatolikus, 85 református, 13 izraelita volt.

2002-ben 395 lakosából 390 román, 3 magyar, 2 egyéb nemzetiségű volt.

Q: Variable undefined after Ajax request I have a globally defined JavaScript function which performs an ajax request to fetch some data from a model. The issue I am having is that when I load the page and inspect element, it gives the error:

Uncaught ReferenceError: response is not defined

Here is the function:
function getRating(work_id)
        {
            $.ajax({
                url: '/read/getRatings',
                type: 'GET',
                async: true,
                data: { field1: work_id},
                success: function (data) {
                    //your success code
                   response = data;
                },
                error: function (xhr, ajaxOptions, thrownError) {
                    alert("Error: " + thrownError);
                }
            });
            return response;
        }

The function gets called in my HTML like this:

Error in browser console]:

The Ajax request works fine as when I inspect it in Chrome's developer tools, the correct response comes back. However the variable response does not get initialized in the $.ajax() method.
When I try to add $response = ""; at the start of the function so that it gets explicitly defined, it always returns the empty string and the variable does not get changed inside the ajax request as it should.
Anyone know what's going wrong here?

A: This is a common misunderstanding of asynchronous programming.  You don't have a result to return when the initial call ends-- you need a callback to do the writing for you (the success part).
function getRating(work_id, selectorToWriteTo)
        {
            $.ajax({
                url: '/read/getRatings',
                type: 'GET',
                async: true,
                data: { field1: work_id},
                success: function (data) {
                    //your success code
                    $(selectorToWriteTo).html(data);
                },
                error: function (xhr, ajaxOptions, thrownError) {
                    alert("Error: " + thrownError);
                }
            });
        }

Truvada Should Remain First Choice for PrEP, Experts Argue
Descovy and Truvada
Both Truvada and Descovy are highly effective and safe for most people taking PrEP, but the newer option has more cost barriers.
January 14, 2020 • By Liz Highleyman
Claims about the superiority of Descovy, the new pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) option, are "overstated," and Truvada remains a highly effective and safe choice for the vast majority of PrEP users, according to a commentary in the Annals of Internal Medicine.
Truvada, approved for HIV treatment in 2004 and for PrEP in 2012, contains tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), one of the most widely used antiretroviral medications. Descovy, initially approved in 2016, contains tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), which leads to less drug exposure for the kidneys, bones and other organs. The combination pills, both manufactured by Gilead Sciences, also contain emtricitabine (FTC), a drug with minimal side effects.
"These drugs are equally effective when used for PrEP in gay and bisexual men and transgender women, and the potential safety benefits of TAF/FTC over TDF/FTC have not yet been shown to be clinically significant," lead author Douglas Krakower, MD, of Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard Medical School, Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Institute and The Fenway Institute said in a press release. "Given the available clinical evidence and public health context, TDF/FTC should remain the first choice for the vast majority of PrEP users."
In October 2019, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Descovy as a second daily PrEP option to reduce the risk of contracting HIV via sex, with the exception of receptive vaginal or frontal sex. Approval was based on findings from the Phase III DISCOVER trial, which enrolled more than 5,300 men who have sex with men and a small number of transgender women. The study did not include cisgender women or transgender men, and the FDA therefore declined to approve Descovy PrEP for these groups until more data become available. Truvada has no such restrictions. In addition, Truvada, but not Descovy, has also been shown to prevent HIV in people who inject drugs and heterosexuals with HIV-positive partners.
"In the future, no HIV prevention drug should be allowed to undergo Food and Drug Administration review without data addressing all key populations at risk for HIV," the commentary authors wrote. "It would be a clinical leap of faith to use TAF/FTC instead of TDF/FTC in other populations."
Numerous studies have shown that both Truvada and Descovy are very effective for HIV prevention in the studied populations, nearly eliminating the risk of acquiring the virus if taken consistently.
Both combination pills are generally safe and well tolerated. The TDF in Truvada can cause kidney problems and a small amount of bone loss in susceptible individuals, and it is not recommended for people with pre-existing kidney impairment. These problems are seen more often in HIV-positive people taking the medication for treatment—especially in combination with the booster drugs ritonavir or cobicistat—and are rare in HIV-negative individuals taking it for prevention.
Many studies have shown that the TAF in Descovy is less likely to cause unfavorable changes in kidney and bone biomarkers, but serious kidney problems and bone loss are uncommon with either drug. Conversely, the TDF in Truvada has a more favorable effect on blood fat levels and leads to less weight gain, which could have implications for cardiovascular risk. While Descovy may be a better option for those at risk for kidney or bone problems, both are safe choices for most people.
Since the approval of TAF, Gilead has encouraged patients and providers to switch to Descovy for PrEP and its other TAF-containing coformulations for HIV treatment, claiming that they are safer and potentially more effective. Advocates argue that this is a profit-driven move, as generic versions of TDF are available and Truvada will go off patent this year. Gilead holds patents on Descovy until 2022 and has requested an extension to 2025. (Some claim that the federal government holds patents on the use of both Truvada and Descovy for HIV prevention.)
Krakower and his coauthors—Demetre Daskalakis, MD, of the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, Judith Feinberg, MD, of West Virginia University, and Julia Marcus, PhD, of Harvard Medical School, Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Institute and The Fenway Institute—largely base their argument on the cost of Descovy. Both PrEP options are priced about the same now, at around $2,000 per month, but this will likely change when generic Truvada becomes available.
Gilead offers patient assistance programs for people unable to afford its medications as well as a card to help cover co-payments for those with insurance. But price is still a barrier for some individuals and for public health programs that aim to make the prevention pill more widely available.
"With the exorbitant cost of these drugs, there are huge public health and economic implications if most PrEP users begin to use the newer TAF/FTC pill rather than TDF/FTC for PrEP," Marcus said in the Harvard Pilgrim press release. "Gilead is asking us to 'update' our PrEP to TAF/FTC, but that's not a clinically necessary or cost-effective choice for the vast majority of PrEP users."
Marcus told POZ that a number of studies have found that cost—whether perceived or actual—was a reason for not initiating or not continuing on PrEP.
"The wholesale cost of PrEP creates downstream barriers at all levels of the health care system, including the patient experience," she said. "Because PrEP is so expensive for payers, we've seen insurance companies requiring prior authorization for PrEP, which creates a barrier for patients even when their co-pay is minimal or nonexistent."
"As for out-of-pocket costs, there are multiple ways of getting the cost of PrEP covered for an individual patient, depending on the state and the patient's insurance coverage and income, but even when a patient ends up paying nothing out of pocket, we need PrEP navigators to help them access these patient assistance programs," she continued. "If PrEP were as affordable as other preventive medications, like generic statins (or like generic TDF combinations in other countries), most people could afford to pay out of pocket, mitigating both perceived and actual cost barriers."

A recent article in the Wall Street Journal on 'The New Science of Who Sits Where at Work' highlighted some interesting facts about behaviours of people in the workplace: the fact that 40-60% of our interactions are with immediate office neighbours; that bringing people from different teams and departments into close proximity can increase productivity; and that emotions and moods are contagious and create specific cultures and atmospheres in the office.
However, the article did not consider the architectural or spatial perspective at all – how are workplaces designed? How does the layout of an office have an impact on interactions and people's behaviours? Therefore I wanted to offer some thoughts on this based on my own research in the field, which was done in the tradition of 'Space Syntax'.
The location of attractors, i.e. tea and coffee making facilities, printers, photocopiers plays an important role in affecting movement flows in workplaces. Areas that are highly integrated in an office attract people naturally, but areas with sought after functions attract people likewise. Movement flows are a combination of building configuration and attractor placement – this is important, since movement is crucial for bringing people together and allowing for encounters. [See the full scientific paper by Sailer 2007 on 'Movement in Workplace Environments'] Oh, and by the way, people are willing to walk longer distances for 'attractive attractors' such as the right type of coffee.
While a large proportion of interactions takes place in close vicinity around people's desks, social and public spaces like kitchens and common rooms account for the majority of interactions. In a still unpublished recent study of a university department we found that 38% of interactions occurred within offices, but 52% of interactions took place in social spaces (kitchen, common room, canteen, library) and 10% took place in the corridors and hallways of the building.
The same study showed that interactions seek out integrated places. If we map average integration values of various activities, interacting is the most integrated activity, closely followed by people walking. Interestingly, the most segregated activity is people talking on the phone. Clearly, spatial configuration governs behaviours and distributes activities across space.
And again results from the recent study of a university department showed that offices occupied by more than one person are not always guaranteeing higher levels of interactivity (i.e. the proportion of people interacting versus people present). Interactivity was higher in single offices (18%) than in double offices (9%) or group offices (12%). It seems that single offices invite others to come in for conversations, while double offices and group offices prohibit interactions to some degree for the fear of disturbing co-workers.

"The blood was boiling when I seen what they were doing to my country. That nobody will know because we won't talk."
[Please be advised that this veteran's personal experience includes elements of a graphic nature and may not be suitable for a younger viewer] My name is Tad Szablewski. In Polish, it's Szablewski, just in case. I was born 8 January, 1920 in Krakow, in Poland. As any country in Europe, we weren't prepared for a war ̶ only Germany. There were six regiment of the air force in Poland before the war. Fifth of September, my buddies were there, 6:00 in the morning, they were there already. Us as a member of Polish air force in Warsaw, the 1st [Air] Regiment, we had to go, escape before they move in and we are ahead of them. We moved south, more or less, to countries like Czechoslovakia, like Hungary, Romania, those countries. But, anyway, so we were already in southern part of Poland, way down, when our officer said, gentlemen, I can hear it, some music. Music. Usually the Russians, when they are moving somewhere, they had the orchestra. They are playing music. After they're closed up in the train cars, after they go to Moscow, to Russia. Orchestra, they had the orchestra coming in, welcome, welcome. They occupy us that way. They open up with open heart. They were beautiful shits. You love us. Oh, God. Yeah. So the officer said, gentlemen, we haven't got that much time because Russians [are] out there and Germans out there. We are in between them. So we run to Hungary. We disbanded all the machine guns and that stuff. We couldn't do nothing. So we entered Hungary. They were under orders to take all the Polish air force guys which are trained already, like myself, like already trained. To get them first priority to them. So then they put us on the train to just after the frontier of Yugoslavia. Then they have to go through Drava, a river. If only the river could talk, they will know how many of our boys are shot down because the Hungarians, they were shooting. They found somebody in the middle of the street… Le Bourget [an airport in France]. There [at] Le Bourget, the British came down, it was like on the meat market: what were you, a mechanic, get there; what are you? Driver, get there. They took us to England on a boat. The blood was boiling when I seen what they were doing to my country. That nobody will know because we won't talk. The Germans, either there's SS [Schutzstaffel: German paramilitary organization] or whatever, taked a little baby, beat the head against the wall. Killed him against the wall, little baby. We were there afterwards. I was on the occupation to Osnabrück, Arnbruck, Calais and Hamburg. I never be atrocious to them. A few years after the war, I went home. Warsaw, naturally, there was no Warsaw anymore, only from names of the streets. Some, oh yeah, that was my street was over there, they're not there anymore. Oh God. I cry and all that stuff. I went to visit here, visit there and that was it. That was very sad. So that's it.

Latest canvas yields no clues in Dr. Whiteside mystery
Another Northern Door County door-to-door canvas for missing doctor Jeffrey Whiteside has failed answer a lingering question: Where did he go?
Since early July the Door County Sheriff's Department has conducted a number of searches covering air, land and water looking for the 63-year-old doctor. Whiteside was last seen leaving the Ephraim Yacht Harbor Marina on foot at 10:30 a.m. June 29. The doctor was staying in his Ephraim condo with his wife.
The two allegedly had a disagreement and he left. Several hours later his wife left for home. His family reported him missing July 1. Search dogs and volunteers from Headwaters Search and Rescue K9 combed large portions of the Ephraim area July 11 and a group made up of Whiteside's friends and colleagues combed another unsearched area July 12.
Thursday's canvas included three deputies going from business to business in Ephraim, Fish Creek and Sister Bay, said Field Services Lt. Jeff Farley. On Wednesday the Sheriff's Department used several boats scoured the shoreline. Officers used a side-scan sonar to check areas the K-9s had showed interest in over the weekend. The Department of Natural Resources brought in an airplane to do a sweep of the water starting in Eagle Harbor in Ephraim.
"We're producing negative results," Farley said of the searches.
Headwaters search dogs are scheduled to return to the area Sunday, he said. The plan is to go over Ephraim's swamp preserve and the south end of Sister Bay
"We're getting to the point where we're getting far away from the designated target areas," Farley said.
Whiteside's family is "fully cooperating" and in "routine contact" with investigators, said Sheriff's Chief Deputy Pat McCarty.
McCarty declined to say whether the department had asked for permission to search Whiteside's Grand Chute home.
"I'm not going to comment on that right now," he said.
Anyone who has seen Whiteside on or after June 29 should contact the Door County Sheriff's Department at (920) 746-2416.
Contact Samantha Hernandez at svhernande@doorcountyadvocate.com, @svhernandez on Twitter or (920) 743-3321, Ext. 112.

UK varsities offer 15 crore scholarship to Indian students
Urging Indian students to choose the United Kingdom (UK) as a study destination, British high commission's minister counsellor (political and press) Andrew Soper on Wednesday said the UK enjoys global reputation for excellence in the field of education and skills. He said four of the world's top six universities are in the UK and degree from a UK university is highly valued by employers across the globe.
Talking to media persons on the eve of inauguration of 'Great UK Education' seminars in the state capital here, Soper said this year British Council, in partnership with 57 UK universities, is offering a total of 401 scholarship awards worth 1.5 million pound (approx. Rs15.10 crore) to attract more Indian students. "…the Great Britain Scholarships-India is the largest-ever scholarship programme offered to Indian students," he said.
"In addition, the UK government will quadruple its funding for the Chevening scholarships for Indian students (up to 2.4 million pound) over the next two years, making India the largest recipient in the world. Chevening scholarships are the UK government's global scholarship programme," Soper said.
He pointed out that the UK universities offer a vibrant and stimulating environment to international students. "The fact that 84 per cent of Indian student visa applicants in 2013 were successful shows we welcome Indian students in our universities. There is no limit on the number of Indians who can go to study in UK and stay on to work in a graduate-level job after their studies," he said.
Soper, who worked as a social science teacher at a Mussoorie-based school during 1983-84, added, "As per a national student survey, over 90% of postgraduate students in UK rate the quality of teaching positively and the satisfaction rate for students has hit a 10-year high – with 86% saying they are satisfied overall with their courses," he said.
"Besides, a recent British Council research has found that of 195 countries, one in seven current world leaders have studied in the UK at higher education level. This is a fine example of how investing in UK's higher education sector is a long-term asset internationally," Soper said.

Mobile DVR service with a DIRECTV HR24? Don't count on it
FILED UNDER:directvhdtvsatellite
Let's set the record straight. A few other enthusiast sites have reported that it's possible to use DIRECTV's Mobile DVR service with an HR24 DVR. The results are said to be pretty bad, but at least you get something.
I'm not going to deny that it's possible, but it's not something you really actually want to try. First of all it seems you would still need a DIRECTV Genie DVR in your system, and then it would try to stream the content from the HR24 by passing it through the Genie DVR. I'm not so sure that will ever work well. It works ok when sharing content throughout the home, but streaming is another thing altogether. So while it may work for a few people in a sort of herky-jerky way, it's not going to work well for everyone, ever. That's the message I get from some friends who definitely know this sort of thing.
I can say confidently that the mobile DVR service itself will never come to the HR24 DVR. HR24 may have seemed like the new hotness in 2010 but let's be honest… by today's standards it's kind of slow. In fact, due to its age I would not expect any new features to be rolled out on that platform, ever, and I fully expect that it will find its end of life a year or two after AT&T rolls out its next generation platform, whenever that ends up being.
If you only have an HR24 DVR, don't fret though; you can still access the tens of thousands of DIRECTV programs available on demand through the DIRECTV apps for smartphones and tablets. These stream from DIRECTV's servers and not from your home DVR. There's an excellent chance that the programs from your playlist are there anyway.
