Today, in Department 60 of Orange County Superior Court, Bruce, Renee and Jeff will become a family. There were times when they never thought it would happen.
Jeff, who will be 8 years old next week, has spent half his life in foster care. He has been considered a "special needs" child and difficult to adopt.
Bruce Boyd, 32, a PBX operator for the Disneyland Hotel, and his wife, Renee Boyd, 33, a high school special education teacher at La Mirada High School, said they were rejected as potential parents by the Orange County Department of Adoption because of their disabilities.
Bruce Boyd was born with mild cerebral palsy and Renee Boyd has a rare, progressive neuro-muscular disease.
But 10 months ago, Jeff was placed with the La Palma couple with the help of a new, local branch of a national organization, Aid for Adoption of Special Kids or AASK, a state-licensed agency specializing in placing difficult-to-adopt children, and attorney Randall Hicks of Orange, who donated his time.
Superior Court Judge Robert J. Polis is expected to make the legal arrangement final today.
"For two people who thought we'd never be able to have kids, it's really something. You have no idea how exciting it is," Bruce Boyd said.
The couple met in the Key Club, a Kiwanis Club affiliate which helps disadvantaged children go to camp. At the time, he was attending Fullerton Community College and she was at Cal State Fullerton. They have been married 10 years.
"We've always wanted to be parents. It's what I expected all along," Bruce Boyd said.
But because Renee Boyd can't lift anything over five pounds and because bearing a child also would place too great a physical strain on her, she said she is unable to have a child. So three years ago, the couple applied at the county agency.
"They said: 'You folks are handicapped. We have so many normal people we're dealing with, we don't have the time to match your special circumstances with the special circumstances of a child.' They politely told us goodby," Bruce Boyd said.
"It was extremely sad," he said, adding that the couple did not socialize for six months afterwards. "We retreated. We thought maybe we were doing the wrong thing."
Eventually, they decided to start looking again and called various private agencies. But they could not find any older children, a requirement since Renee would not be able to lift even an infant or a small child.
The private agency works with other adoption agencies to find homes for children who have been passed over. Usually, they are older or physically, emotionally or mentally handicapped, according to Linda Howard, executive director of the Southern California branch, located in Irvine.
"We try to get the message out: There are children waiting for adoption. You don't have to be that elusive perfect family in order to adopt. You have to have a lot of love and a lot of ability to care for a child," Howard said.
"There are many couples that would like to adopt but have the perception that there are no children available for adoption. Some have been rejected by an agency, some are discouraged by the statistics that there are 35 couples for every available infant," said Hicks, the adoption attorney who helped the Boyds.
"Most couples are not suited to raise a special-needs child," Hicks said. "It's tremendously hard." But some, he said, "do have it in themselves."
There are state funds available through the Adoptive Assistance Program to help parents pay for physical therapy or other expenses incurred by special-needs children, Hicks added.
So far, AASK has placed 4,000 children nationwide, Howard said. The agency charges no fee.
The agency located Jeffrey in San Diego County. The San Diego Department of Social Services approved the Boyds. "We were thrilled," Bruce Boyd said.
Understanding that his new home would be permanent, Jeff began calling them "Mom and Dad" the day he moved in, the couple said.
Bruce Boyd said they told the boy that he would need to adjust to their limitations--in particular that neither one could walk very fast. "He had to learn he can't go off anywhere he wants. We won't be able to find him," the new father said.
Now, when he plays outside their apartment, Jeff returns every 15 minutes to say "I'm still here. Can I still play?" Bruce Boyd said. "If we tell him no, he comes inside, which is amazing. He knows there are things I am unable to do. It doesn't bother him."
"After two or three months, we were riding along, and I looked down and said, 'He doesn't need me. He's got himself balanced.' "
When he arrived, Jeff had some learning problems and had been placed in special education classes, Renee Boyd said. Now, however, the youngster has been placed in a regular first-grade class in a public school and seems more calm and relaxed, the Boyds said.
The needs of special children diminish, Renee Boyd said, "once they know they are in a secure, safe environment that has commitment attached to it."
Despite their disabilities, Bruce and Renee Boyd said they believe that they can provide Jeffrey with the most important things: a stable environment, love and attention. And they believe that he can do something for them, too.
"He's made us a family," Renee Boyd said. "I can't even put that into words."

The New York Post ran a Page Six item titled "SINKING ANCHORS ANDERSON COOPER AND ROLAND MARTIN HOBBLE CNN"
"It's a flat out lie!", said Roland Martin on his tenure as substitute host for Campbell Brown's "No Bias, No Bull." The item said the show nose-dived in the ratings while Brown was on maternity leave the past month. "Sources say he has complained the network doesn't promote him enough or book him high-profile guests," the Post said. Martin told Journal-isms via e-mail, "FLAT OUT LIE. I never even uttered those words, never said any such thing to any network executive or any other staffer. I would be embarrassed as an editor or writer of a paper to put out such a lie." CNN spokeswoman Barbara Levin told Journal-isms, "Roland has done a great job filling for Campbell Brown at 8 pm by providing smart, engaging and lively discussion and debate each evening." However, a network spokeswoman, asked specifically about the ratings, said, "We won't have further comment on that."

I think I post a version of this photograph more than I probably should. We have had a ton of rain in the past few days, and Olive and I had a lovely wet walk in the woods this afternoon. But for some reason, the water, the leaves, and the dog make me feel quite happy and I wanted to share it.
I had heard earlier today that Bernie Sanders would be in Amherst this evening and thought it would be interesting to go and check it out. I used to shoot a lot of political stuff when I was younger and have always liked the vibe of campaign gatherings.
There was a huge queue outside of the Mullins Center for the 6.00 PM event.
Here are Bill, Billy, and Elias who came over from Hudson, NY. Bill is a huge politics buff and was a fan of both Hillary and Bernie. Elias is going to Africa in a few months.
The event was supposed to start at 6.00, but there were still thousands of people outside at that time as security was pretty tight. TSA were checking bags and pockets, and the Secret Service was in full force.
I think this guy was serious!
There was quite a lot of positive energy in the building. And not just young folks. It was actually quite diverse in terms of age.
The only merchandise I saw for sale were these earrings, and I don’t think the woman selling them was an “official” part of the campaign. $10.00 a pair.
Just like old times for me; this guy was shooting 16mm film!
I love photographing events like this, as people are really open and happy for the attention.
Here is my Norwegian friend Björn, who seemed to find it all exotic and interesting. He said that given what Bernie had to say, he would probably be thought of as a center-right candidate in Norway.
I will say this; Bernie has a tremendous amount of energy and drive, and there is a very genuine quality about him. The crowd was completely with him the whole time.
It was a very interesting evening, and so much fun to be in the middle of this sort of event again.
When Judy Berde and I were making arrangements for my talk on Roosevelt Island, I got an email from her asking if I had a dog. The question came out of nowhere, but I told her about Olive. When I finished my talk she presented me with a box with this amazing gift inside. Olive now has a new bowl, and she loves it! (Well, it has food in it and she is a Labrador; what’s not to like?) I think these bowls are for sale through the Roosevelt Island Historical Society, as well as mugs with the same text. Any of you who live in the metro New York area should think about joining the organization; Judy does a great job and the island has a really interesting history.
Olive is also now rocking a new Red Sox collar, which is a gift from my sister Karen. Thanks Sis.
Working my way home today, but I got to see my good friend Herman this morning on Elizabeth Street. I think he just got this new hat.
Big thanks to Judy Berde at the Roosevelt Island Historical Society for inviting me to speak about the suitcases. We had a great crowd with lots of interesting questions. And a note to any of you who are involved in organizations that might like to sponsor a talk. I am starting to travel quite a bit and really look forward to presenting the project. Next Wednesday the 17th, I be talking about some of my other work to the Schenectady Photographic Society. If you live in the Albany area, stop by.
Virginia’s case is pretty great. I can’t quite make out the date of her admittance, but it is sometime in the early 1950’s. It is interesting that these were the only two books she brought with her to Willard.
Good news about the willardsuitcases.com site. Steve Fox was able to troubleshoot the problem, and it is back up and looking good. I just added Virginia’s case, so you might want to check it out.
I am looking forward to seeing some of you in New York next week.
Peter and I used to drop off Cristine at this terminal when she would be leaving on some of her long trips to South Asia for work. After she went to her gate he and I would sit on a bench at curbside and record the names and numbers on the shuttle vans as they came past. I still have some of the notebooks that we used all those years ago.
On Friday I drove her to the airport for a brief trip to DC and on the approach road, this is what we saw. I guess I knew that they would be tearing it down at some point, but it was still a bit of a shock. / She flies in later tonight, but I came down early to try to get a shot. The sun went below the horizon within 30 seconds of taking this photo and the light changed completely. It is always amazing to me that a building once so full of activity could be reduced to this. It will be completely gone very soon.

Ukrainian brand Ambra (Lviv Private Soap Factory) presents natural hypoallergenic baby washing powder. It is a 100% handmade product that contains only a bare minimum of ingredients that help to keep your clothes fresh and clean. They are baking soda, borax and shavings of natural soap. Phosphate-free.
Phosphate-free laundry detergent by Ambra is an effective and affordable product. It is suitable for both manual and machine wash. Due to containing only natural ingredients, it is completely safe for your health and the environment. The product doesn't irritate the skin or cause allergic reactions.
The laundry detergent is suitable for washing different fabrics. It gently removes dirt and stains without damaging the fibres. It is easily washed out during rinsing, which helps to save time and makes your clothes last longer.
Ambra's natural washing power is free of phosphates, fragrances, aggressive anionic surfactants, chlorine, phthalates and other potentially harmful or even dangerous additives.
One of the product's key ingredients is natural soap shavings. Soap acts as a mild, but effective detergent and easily removes dirt. Baking soda softens the water, enhances the effect of soap and keeps fabric from fading in the wash. Borax (sodium borate) also produces a softening effect on the water. This ingredient regulates the alkalinity of soap and preserves its detergent effect even in lukewarm or cool water.
Directions. Use 1 to 3 tbsp powder depending on the amount of laundry (3 tbsp powder for 5 kg laundry). Suitable for manual and machine wash.
Ingredients. Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda), Sodium Borate (Borax), Natural Soap Shavings.

Did you know that you can be held responsible for bodily injury caused by a fall in your place of business? Taking preventive measures can help keep customers, suppliers and employees safe and prevent negative consequences for you, including a possible civil liability claim.
Make sure floor coverings are in good condition—not damaged or blocked by any objects.
Apply anti-slip wax, especially on vinyl tiles, terrazzo, marble or granite.
If needed, identify dangerous areas by putting up a “Slippery Floor” sign.
Place absorbent rubber mats or rugs in strategic locations such as store entrances, especially in winter.
Differences in floor level where there are only a few steps should be clearly indicated (with a yellow strip, for example), because the eye doesn’t always pick up small variations.
Any damaged or unstable steps should be repaired promptly.
Make sure stairs are never blocked.
If needed, install non-slip material to make stairs less slippery.
Remove any accumulation of snow or ice as quickly as possible. Sand or salt to de-ice slippery steps and landings, or if you expect the temperature to drop below freezing.
Pay attention to high-traffic areas, but also to garages, hallways, fire escapes, service rooms, storage rooms, laundry rooms and washrooms.
For safe evacuation in the event of an electrical breakdown, install automatic emergency lighting using a generator.
Make sure there is adequate lighting for outdoor walkways and parking areas so building occupants and visitors can safely get where they need to go and to reduce the risk of falls. Lights should be on from dusk to dawn and controlled by photocells or timers.
Fix any problems immediately (e.g., burned bulb, shattered lamp or defective equipment).
Keep sidewalks, walkways and outdoor parking areas in good condition.
Mark steps and sudden elevation changes in yellow, and install a guardrail in areas that present a risk of injury from falls.
As with stairs, remove any accumulation of snow or ice as soon as possible. Sand or salt to de-ice sidewalks, walkways and parking areas that are slippery or are becoming slippery.
Accidental falls can cause fractures, sprains and other injuries. They’re the main cause of accidents in many types of establishments, including apartment buildings, seniors’ residences, daycare centres, office buildings, hotels, restaurants and other businesses. Invest in safety!
Based on the advice of Jean-Jacques Fournel, prevention expert.

Adrian's owner, George Matta, opens two new Tex-Mex restaurants.
After a career specializing in Mediterranean food, George Matta knows he's taking a risk by expanding into Tex-Mex fast food.
But he figures all that experience in the kitchen counts for something.
"This is our first fast food" restaurant, Matta said. "I don't know fast food, but I know food."
Besides, Matta is hedging his bet by bringing some dishes from Adrian's, his popular Mediterranean establishment on Rock Road, to two new restaurants in Newton and Augusta.
Those places will both be called Zorro's. "They will have Tex-Mex and more and more means whatever I like," Matta said.
Both Zorro's are located in former Taco Ticos that have been closed for a couple months. LIke their predecessor, Zorro's will serve tacos, burritos and tostadas, homemade salsa, refried beans and more in a fast-food setting at fast-food prices. But Matta promises an upgrade in quality.
"We're using real meat, no fillers," he said. There will be some familiar faces behind the counters as well. He's hired back much of the staff from Taco Tico.
"My assistant manager has been there 24 years," Matta said of the Augusta restaurant.
Matta also plans to offer some of the dishes diners have come to love at Adrian's, which he's owned for nine years. That means Zorro's customers who are in the mood for something different can choose hummus, gyros, schwarma, fatuoush salad, bierocks and baklava. While Adrian's wine list won't be available, both Zorro's will serve cold beer.
The restaurants are getting an upgrade in ambiance, too. After settling on Zorro's as a name, Matta bought the rights to its use from the same people who licensed the hit movies starring Antonio Banderas. The deal allows Matta to use the Zorro logo as well as photos of the cast in the restaurants.
Renovations have been underway at both locations. The Augusta restaurant should be open by December 1, with the Newton restaurant coming online by mid month. Both seat about 55 people in addition to offering take-out and drive-through service.
Matta said he's heard that Augusta and Newton residents "are very excited about having fast and healthy food" available.
He's pumped, too, thinking of ways he can make eating there as festive an occasion as a trip to Adrian's.
"Maybe later we'll give them Zorro masks or something," he said.

Internet connectivity is an important means of delivering business and security value, not just a recreational vehicle and a consummate aggregator of attention.
THERE’S a common belief in the security industry that remote access, internet connection, and external connections are bad; and in the wake of the Mirai bot net and near daily IoT security warnings, it’s not all that surprising that we want to keep security systems air-gapped.
While unarguably well intentioned, this line of thinking will have physical and electronic security providers relegated to the realm of tin foil hat wearers as businesses and users continue to demand more and more efficiency from their systems. Does that mean that we should plug everything in, open everything up, and embrace a fully connected ecosystem – certainly not. It’s all about benefit and risk.
In the realm of operational security, technology is a force multiplier, or a means to an end rather than an end in and of itself. CCTV cameras allow a single guard to view many areas at once as well as providing evidence after the fact. Access control systems allow for the policing of access in restricted areas without requiring the physical presence of a guard. Intrusion detection systems allow for the monitoring of one or many sites without needing any human presence.
Why are we so adverse to connecting these systems to the internet? Let’s begin by reviewing a few facts about the current state. We’ve been connecting alarm systems to phone lines and remotely programming them for years. While they may require some special software, it’s usually authenticated based on a device serial number of 4-digit code with no rate limiting or alerting on failed login attempts, and poor, if any logging.
The industry is using Ethernet and GPRS alarm communication devices more and more frequently; usually on dialler capture and without any back-up path. These systems send their messages across the internet to a bank of computers, many parts of which may be vulnerable. Security systems using Ethernet devices (cameras, door controllers, card readers etc) are put onto poorly secured IT networks, often installed by the integrator and left on factory default settings.
Many monitoring stations and control rooms are remotely accessible, so have the potential to act as a gateway from the outside world into the security networks. When you consider the above, the security industry may not be as secure or as isolated as it likes to think it is.
Why would we want to have our systems remotely accessible? In many cases, connected systems can provide a real benefit. Sending push alarms notifications and video to guards in the field allows them to be more efficient and respond more rapidly. Remote diagnosis and servicing allows integrators to service systems more rapidly, hopefully at lower cost to the client.
There are many legacy practices in the security industry that don’t add value yet we tolerate them. Late to Close events on alarm systems still rely on an operator to call the site and get a stand down password to authorise someone who is already on site to work later. This could easily be replaced by an app (suitably secured) with a push notification allowing a user to extend the closing time by another hour.
We can all argue for the status quo and that current ways of thinking, working, and deploying security are still the best. However, individuals and organisations will continue to seek additional features and functionality, and lower total cost of ownership – if we don’t deliver that, someone else will.
So how do we go about connecting our systems? As with all security measures, there's a secure way and a non-secure way. Plugging in something you bought on eBay then port forwarding your router is not secure and will most likely have your system get pwned. Deploying enterprise grade equipment behind a firewall with robust security controls including as an update and patching process, can deliver security and functionality with limited risk of compromise. If the remote functionality becomes mission critical, redundancy needs to be considered as well.
How to suitably secure systems is one of the challenges the security industry is finally making headway with. There are some excellent hardening guides from assorted vendors. I would also suggest reading some of the critical infrastructure hardening guides such as The SANS Institute’s Critical Control System Vulnerabilities Demonstrated – And What to Do About Them. Integrators who work on network connected or server based security systems should ensure they understand how to suitably secure these systems.

I just picked up a couple colors from this line – super excited that they’re long lasting. I’m brutal on my nails, so this will be an interesting experiment!
Be sure to use a base and top coat. That’s totally key, I think, to making the most out of the durability. What colors did you get?
oh, yes! What a gorgeous bronze! thanks for the zoom in on the micro glitters, I see what you mean on the complexity. hooray for fall nails in browns and bronzes!!!
You’re welcome. I have another cream in this line to test but the next ones I pick up will for sure have a little something-something in them. 🙂 I “need” a green and a blue, at the very least.
Happy Friday to you, and I hope you’re enjoying this gorgeous weather!
This color is so close to Chanel Opulence which is new. But Chanel is $28. I swatched the Chanel in-store yesterday and come home and put this on a neighboring nail. The Chanel is deeper (not as sheer) and has a deeper cranberry base. Both of them shrank away from my nail edge when I put on my quick dry top coat.
Both Dear Hubs and Dear Daughter like the Chanel color better, until I mentioned the price difference. When I went to the gym this morning my trainer said she liked the Chanel color better, too.
I feel like gym equipment isn’t a bother to my nails, but dang do I have callouses on my palms from my workout.
Is it just me or do the SH Color Therapy have a strong, deep, funky smell to them? I mean beyond the way polish usually smells.
P.S. Studies have shown that fitness levels start to drop off as quickly as one week of inactivity, even in elite athletes.
Ooh, thanks for the comparison!
What kind of workout did you do this morning? I need to do cardio sometime this afternoon because I’m hoping that’ll get me back in shape quicker. I ran 2.5 miles yesterday and today I’m aiming for 3.
I did free weights (lunges, goblet squats, bench presses, dead lifts, enough different ab work to make me feel like puking) with my trainer in a new gym. The old gym lost it’s lease and the city put up multiple road blocks in the owner’s attempt to find a new space; like you’ll need more parking than is allowed and there is already another gym within a two block radius. So the owner decide to move the business to San Luis. I followed the female trainer I was working with to this new gym. I’ll be working out with her three days a week and I do cardio on my own the other three days. I’m hoping to convince Dear Husband to buy a stationary bike or rower for the garage on days when it’s too rainy to want to run outside this winter.
Other thoughts on the two colors. The Chanel is more metallic, the SH is more micro glittery. In part I think the micro glitter in the SH makes it appear lighter. Also that it doesn’t have as much color pigment as the Chanel. I’m thinking of layering the SH over the Chanel so I can get that deep, rich purplish berry base, along with the glittery/shimmer of the SH.
Happy Friday! Love this color! Have you ever tried CND Stickey base coat (that’s how they spell it and it drives me nuts)? My go-to combo the past 6 months has been that with an Essie gel polish and Essie’s quick dry top coat. Lasts me at least 10 days (although I’m not at the computer all day anymore)!

It’s one of the most popular dog breeds in the world, but that certainly doesn’t mean to say that owning a Labrador is easy. As most owners will testify, it’s anything but and particularly in the puppy stage you can really start to question yourself and if you did the right thing!
From chewed staircases to puddles in the kitchen; puppies can bring all sorts of bad behavior. Fortunately, as we all know, there is light at the end of the tunnel and the end result of a well-trained, mature and loving dog means that it’s all completely worth it.
In a bid to help you get to this stage in record speeds, we have put together the following guide. We will now take a look at eight common mistakes that are made by Labrador owners as they bid to bring their pet pooch up to scratch. Eradicate these from your lifestyle and you’ll be amazed at the effect on your dog.
This is one of the principal mistakes that a new owner of a Labrador will make. In some ways, it’s understandable. After all, when your dog arrives home you tend to want to make the most of his “cute” appearance and this tends to mean forgetting about basic rules and training that can keep them in line.
Suffice to say, this is asking for trouble. It doesn’t matter if you get the Labrador when it’s a few weeks old or a few years old, you need to insist on the same training regime. Your dog will develop habits on how to react to certain phrases and instructions and this really is a case of the “earlier the better”.
Of course, for young Labradors, you might not be able to teach them advanced training. The point we’re trying to make is that you can help them perfect basic commands from as soon as they walk through your front door.
As we all know, there are all sorts of training books and programs that are now available. While the authors of these guides might suggest that they will work for everyone, try not to buy into this sales tactic.
We’re by no means discrediting any of the dog training books that you come across. However, to think that each and every one is going to work with your Labrador would be a gross inaccuracy.
Every dog is different and what works for one breed, isn’t necessarily going to work for another. Not only that, but what works for one Labrador isn’t going to be successful to the one down the road. There are lots of factors to consider and the best advice is to keep trying different ones and find the one that works the best for you. Don’t give up too fast by any means.
Something that modern-day trainers have found out is that there is no room for punishment in a successful dog training program. It has been found that those owners who reward their dog, rather than operate on a punishment-based system, reap much better rewards.
When we talk about punishment, we’re referring to the likes of yelling or hitting them, grabbing them or jerking the leash. All of these have the risk of making your dog more fearful or worse still, prompting aggressive reactions.
Instead, it’s all about earning your dog’s respect via the “right” channels.
A lot of Labrador owners will call their canine friend over to deliver a form of “bad news”. It might be a reprimand, or it might be to call them inside as they are about to head out. Regardless of the reason, it’s not going to go down well.
Every time you adopt this approach of calling your dog to you for a bad reason, you are effectively issuing a punishment for them returning to you.
This is something that can have grave repercussions in the future. It can mean over time, your lab starts to think twice about returning when you issue a command. This is something which can obviously stem terrible repercussions in the future, not least from a safety perspective, so it’s something to be aware of and to avoid.
This next mistake follows on perfectly from the previous one we’ve just looked at. A lot of owners will reinforce bad behaviors without even realizing it.
For example, if your dog is frightened the most common reaction is to comfort them. Or, if your dog is frantically barking outside, most people will immediately let them inside. All of these behaviors can make the dog feel as though their actions were unacceptable and reinforce that it’s fine for them to do them in the future.
Let’s not forget that dogs crave social attention and merely giving them this is regarded as a reward in their eyes. In fact, if you decide not to give them any attention, this is seen as much more detrimental to them than if you were giving them negative attention.
As any parent will testify, raising a child can become very frustrating at times. Unfortunately, the same rules apply with dogs.
To say that dog training takes time would be a gross understatement. It’s something that can, for certain things, take years to master. This means that it does raise your stress levels, particularly when your Labrador takes longer than you imagined to pick up new skills.
If you are starting to grow frustrated with their training, start to question yourself. Ask yourself if you are training them in the right way, or if a different approach might be more worthwhile.
It’s also worth mentioning that losing patience isn’t all about yelling. You might start to reward your dog after he responded to your second or third command. In his eyes, this makes it seem as though you only offered a “suggestion” and not a “command”. You have lost patience because you have “given up” and issued the reward regardless of his compliance with your command.
This might be quite low in our guide but in truth, it’s one of the most common mistakes that any Labrador owner will make. Maybe it’s due to their soppy eyes; we’re not going to speculate. However, most owners will offer a lapse in training from time to time, whether it’s allowing the dog on the couch or to jump up at a stranger.
Well, even if you just allow this behavior once, it’s still reinforcing the wrong behavior. As soon as you start to fall into this trap, it becomes very difficult to re-teach the commands as your dog is left utterly confused at what is right and what is wrong.
These lapses don’t just have to relate to out-and-out rule breaks either. For example, if you are teaching your dog to lie down and he goes halfway down, rewarding him at this point is again just going to initiate confusion.
Following on from all of the above, let’s reiterate the importance of a good and long training regime. Those of you who regularly train your Labrador will really start to notice the results and suffice to say, if you don’t fall into this category, the opposite will occur.
The best advice is to pick just one training topic to concentrate on, and try and work on it for a maximum of 15 minutes. If you venture past this point, there’s every chance that boredom is going to kick in and your dog will no longer be interested. Try and ensure that you participate in these sessions several times a week, bringing in new techniques to keep your dog interested and ultimately allow them to learn new things.
It’s worth mentioning that this training should never stop either. In other words, just because your dog has passed the puppy stage, it doesn’t mean all training should cease. Sure, it might start to slow down somewhat, but your dog should be constantly learning and picking up new things – even as they reach “old age”.

Mia Aley, Lisa Oliver-Lapikas, Carmen Alfredo, Nick Bell, Ericka Grandy, Nolan Lapikas, JoLee Lundquest, Jlia McConahy and Conner Rogers from Sharpsville Area Middle School were the winning team in the What’s So Cool About Manufacturing? video contest.
SHARON, Pa. – For the team from Greenville Junior/Senior High School, the hardest part of telling the story of Ilsco Extrusions Inc., was sorting through the abundance of interesting information.
“We had a half-hour worth of interviews that we then had to cut down to 2 1/2 minutes,” said Matt Gehly, a teacher at Greenville and the team’s coach.
Greenville was one of nine schools from western Pennsylvania to take part in this year’s What’s So Cool About Manufacturing? video contest. Each school was paired with a local manufacturer and tasked with making a video about who they are and what they do.
The students began working on their projects in October. The videos were then posted online so the public could view them and vote for their favorite, with a total of 14,980 votes cast.
The team from Sharpsville Area Middle School won the Viewers’ Choice award with 3,494 votes with their video on Reynolds Services Inc. of Greenville. Their video, along with the other entries, can be watched here.
The team spent a lot of time on marketing, said team member Julia McConahy.
The students and manufacturers were honored for their hard work at an awards gala Thursday night at Penn State Shenango.
Bob Zaruta, president and CEO of the Northwest Pennsylvania Resource Center, which directed the program, said the goal is to increase awareness of opportunities in manufacturing, not just for students, but also for their parents and the broader community.
Rylan Walberg and Matt Gehly from Greenville Junior/Senior High School, which won the awards for Outstanding Editing and Overall Program.
And, he said, those opportunities are even better in the northwest region of the state.
This year’s What’s So Cool About Manufacturing? program held 15 such competitions across Pennsylvania with 250 school/manufacturer teams. This is the programs second year in the west-central district, and it’s sixth year overall.
Part of making that change is getting people to understand that the environment in a manufacturing plant today is much different than it once was.
Entering the manufacturing industry is also much cheaper than what one would pay for a typical college degree said Scott Covert, an instructor with Penn United Technologies, a manufacturing solutions provider based in Cabot, Pa.
“A lot of companies now are offering tuition reimbursement. We want you to be educated. We’re going to pay you to go back to school,” he said.
Covert also told the audience that manufacturing is “cool,” and “encompasses almost everything in our lives,” and you don’t have to go far to see it.
As an example, he asked the audience if they noticed the American Flags on the back of Team USA’s jackets at the Winter Olympics.
“You know what that flag actually was? It was a heater. There’s a company in Butler County called Butler Technology that used printable circuitry to make those jackets,” he said.
The same company is also making K Cups for Keurig coffee machines with medicine in them so people who can’t take pills can take their meds with their coffee.
“These are the cool things that are happening in western Pennsylvania,” he said.
Greenville Junior/Senior High School and Ilsco Extrusions in Greenville.
Hickory High School and Wheatland Tube Co. in Wheatland.
Jamestown Area Junior/Senior High School and Jamestown Coating Technologies in Jamestown.
Lakeview Middle School, Stoneboro, and Penn Stainless Products Inc. in Jackson Center.
Mercer Area Middle/High School and Miller Industries in Hermitage.
Sharon Middle School and Sharon Tube Co. in Wheatland.
Sharpsville Area Middle School and Reynolds Services Inc., Greenville.
West Middlesex Junior/Senior High School and Solar Atmospheres in Hermitage.
Laurel Middle School and Wendell August Forge in Grove City.
In addition to the Viewers’ Choice, five other awards were given.
Greenville Junior/Senior High School won the awards for Outstanding Editing and Overall Program.
Laurel Middle School received the award for Outstanding Creativity.
The Outstanding Cool award went to Mercer Area Middle/High School.

Each Friday, DCH performers, teachers, and students offer their recommendations for what to watch, read, see, hear, or experience. This week David Allison wishes Bruno never returned, Jonda Robinson discovers the right time for treats, Molly Jakkamsetti waxes chumps like a candle. It’s always a strange feeling when a creative person, whose work you enjoy, decides to branch out and try a different medium. For some, like Donald Glover and Hugh Laurie, it works really well. For others, like Bruce Willis, IT DOES NOT WORK. You’ll notice that I put a portion of that last sentence in all caps, which was intentional as I was trying to reinforce just how much it doesn’t work sometimes. Even worse, these ventures sometimes ruin how much you’re able to appreciate the talents that drew you to them in the first place. It was with that level of trepidation that I decided to check out the band comprised of Harris Wittels, Paul Rust, and Michael Cassady. Individually, the three have done some fantastic work (Wittels-Parks & Rec/Humblebrag, Rust- Comedy Bang! Bang!/Arrested Development, Cassady-Earwolf/UCB) so on one hand, it seems like combining their talents had to work. On the other, they’re comedy writers/actors, so the idea of them starting a band is pretty terrible. So how did it end up? I really liked it! I’m rating the work of the band “Don’t stop or we’ll die” as WHAT I’M LOVING THIS WEEK (Note: This instance of all caps was to remind you of the title of this weekly piece).
Now I’m not here to tell you how to spend your money; I’m not Suze Orman. Plus, the production quality isn’t always the best. But you should at the very least check out these songs, and then, if/when you enjoy them BUY EVERY ALBUM THEY’VE EVER CREATED (Caps for commerce). Here are some of my favorites.
Once In A While -Proof that they can play and sing music!
Lectric Roller Skates -The classic tale of the folly of man.
The hosts were 4 well known comedians: Jon Stewart (He may have just started hosting The Daily Show), Janeane Garafolo (who is seen smoking on set - no e-cigs back then!!), Denis Leary (sardonic as ever), and Chris Kattan (yeah, he was on SNL then). They watched each video and mocked them as they aired, a la Beavis and Butthead, and at the end they would “destroy” the tapes ( I remember one ended up in a blender).
As you would expect, most of them were one hit wonders (The Macarena, Milli Vanilli, and Rico Suave to name a few) and failed attempts by celebrities to launch singing careers (Eddie Murphy and Don Johnson were in the top 5).
The most uncomfortable moment was when Vanilla Ice made a special appearance to destroy his video for “Ice Ice Baby.” The hosts all acknowledged how awkward it was for them to mock the video while Ice is sitting right there. When they give him the chance to destroy his video, he takes a baseball bat and starts swinging around the set, almost hitting the hosts. I’m not sure if it was all staged, but I remember Kattan looked genuinely frightened. You can hear someone off set saying “that’s enough” so I think maybe it was a planned stunt that Vanilla took too far.

ASA Monitor 08 2014, Vol.78, 52-53.
While 2014’s legislative session continues for about one-fifth of the states, most state legislatures have wrapped up. So far in 2014, there have been many new legislative, regulatory and legal efforts that could potentially affect anesthesiology. This mid-year ASA NEWSLETTER issue gives us the perfect opportunity to review some of what has been considered this year and what has already been signed into law.
AAs are highly skilled health professionals who work under the direction of physician anesthesiologists to implement anesthesia care plans. AAs have served patients as members of physician-led anesthesia care teams for more than 40 years. This year, states including Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan and New York considered AA legislation. In March, Indiana Governor Mike Pence (R) signed into law AA licensure legislation (P.L.58-2014, effective July 1, 2014) making Indiana the 17th jurisdiction to authorize AAs practice. A proposed regulation in Nevada would authorize delegatory authority for AAs under the supervision of a physician anesthesiologist.

A policeman charged in 2005 over his role in a motorcade that travelled at up to 172km/h so the then Prime Minister, Helen Clark, wouldn't miss a flight to a Bledisloe Cup rugby test collapsed and died on Waiheke Island yesterday.
Senior Constable Clinton Vallender "was just going about his normal duties" when he died, a police spokeswoman said.
Superintendent Mike Clement said there were no suspicious circumstances.
In 2005, Mr Vallender and two other officers were charged over speeding with the PM from Waimate to Christchurch. He moved to Waiheke in 2012.

A rise in both home sales and home prices bolstered the Denver economy in 2017, but that surge soon leveled. Yet, a total of 57,788 sales of single-family homes and condos broke records during the year, showing a promising 8.7% increase since the previous year. The average home price in Denver for that year was $410,000, which was 7.9% higher than it had been in 2016.
Condo sales were even more impressive for 2017, rising a full 10% since the previous year with the average condo price going for $318,904. The median sale price for condos in Denver for 2017 rose by 12.15% with a $270,000 price.
In 2017, the total sale volume for Denver was $25 billion, which shows another increase in a trend that has been going strong for several years. In 2011, that number was only at $9.9 billion, but, by 2014, Denver showed a total sales volume of $17.6 billion. Sales volume again rose to $20.3 billion in 2015 and to $22.2 billion in 2016.
The total sales volume primarily concerns the sale of existing homes, but also includes a portion of newly developed homes in the area. A low volume of homes on the market has been driving home prices up, which accounts for the steady increases. By the end of 2017, there were only 3,854 homes available on the market in a city of 3 million people.
In comparison, the average number of homes on the market in Denver between the years 1985 and 2016 was 13,702. The low number of listings concerns realtors, because it signifies a growing trend that homeowners are electing to stay in their current homes. In part, this may be because they fear not being able to find a new home to suit their tastes in such a sparse market.
Another reason that the inventory of homes is so low is that sellers typically find buyers, before their listing is made publicly available. These homes spend zero days on the market, bringing that count down lower than it is in reality. Additionally, homes are selling faster. In 2017, 1,880 homes were sold after only being on the market for one day.
As rising prices dominate the market, fewer buyers may be able to afford the homes. This, in turn, will likely drive home prices back down to more manageable prices and could possibly reverse the market trends. In that case, it will again be a buyer’s market in Denver.

"But what is the kind of dialogue with Islam that Benedict XVI wants? ... 'In a dialogue to be intensified with Islam, we must bear in mind the fact that the Muslim world today is finding itself faced with an urgent task... On the one hand, one must counter a dictatorship of positivist reason that excludes God from the life of the community and from public organizations, thereby depriving man of his specific criteria of judgment. On the other, one must welcome the true conquests of the Enlightenment, human rights and especially the freedom of faith and its practice, and recognize these also as being essential elements for the authenticity of religion."
Few observers are more hardnosed and skeptical about dialogue with Islam than Sandro Magister. Sometimes he goes overboard, but here he’s probably right to contrast the fawning response by 300 Christian scholars to the Muslim “letter of the 138” to the Pope’s more toughminded, nuanced stance. How many apologies for the Crusades do we need?
