One of the peoples of Kabalor, the Shafori, are coastline dwellers and I’d been really puzzling about how I was going to illustrate their towns with a build. Dwarven Forge, makers of the excellent miniature terrain I use, has dungeons, caverns, cities, castles, hellscapes, forests, mountains, and swamps, but no beachside biomes.
I realized, looking at the pieces, that the cavern sculpts could be adapted for a low tide look, converting slow drips of limestone to draped kelp and anemones. It took me a while to go from idea to implementation, though, as this is a very big paint scheme. Many steps and lots and lots of detail work. But I love the result! This will work for tide pools, riverbanks, and even somewhat muddy caves.
The big lesson from this project is that doing test pieces works. I worked out the scheme on four varied pieces and kept those around a while to confirm I really liked them (and a couple color adjustments I wanted to make) before I tackled the full project, assembly line style. It got fairly dull at points; it’s about 50 or 60 individual pieces to do each step on, but the end result is really fabulous. Along the way, I completely caught up with all the channels I subscribe to on YouTube and made progress in a couple audio books. 😆
The reaction to the paint scheme in the Dwarven Forge community on Discord was really nice. Lovely folks. Great to get cheered after crossing the finish line of something that has been gracing my craft table for a couple months!
Here are the painting instructions:
- Start from unpainted or from cavern paint scheme.
- This uses all Pokorny paints, plus Golden Gel Gloss Medium for the water areas.
- Heavy dry brush / base Earth Stone avoiding pools of water, allow to dry.
- Dry brush 3:1:1 Stucco & Earth Stone & Olive Dry Brush avoiding pools of water, allow to dry.
- Some Stones for Erinthor mountains paint scheme accent and compatibility, Base Grey, allow to dry
- – Some Stones: dry brush 1:1 Earth Stone & Olive Dry Brush, allow to dry
- – Some Stones: feather light dry brush Cavern Stone Dry Brush
- Kelp: heavy dry brush Base Wood, allow to dry
- – Kelp: light dry brush Terra Cotta Dry Brush, also on any area that should look more sandy and on the sides of pieces
- Pools, low spots, and anemone centers: detail brush 5:1 Sludge and Shallow Water Seaweed Green, allow to dry
- Pools, low spots, and anemone centers: very light dry brush 1:1 Moss Green and a fairly light blue like Water Bubbles Blue
- “thoughtful touches”: paint various critters in appropriate colors e.g. mushrooms -> alternate anemone color like pale pink; bat -> brown crab; side of piece buried coins/eggs? -> light gray clams.
- Anything wet: clear gloss, filling puddles thoroughly since the gel gloss medium will shrink. (Also it will dry very slowly over several days. It starts out white and then finally becomes clear.)

Mizoram government would continue to make efforts to provide humanitarian assistance to Myanmar nationals taking shelter in the northeastern state, said Chief Minister Zoramthanga.
Hundreds of people from the neighbouring country fled their country following a military coup and took refuge in Mizoram.
Zoramthanga while interacting with the Myanmar nationals in Aizawl on Monday gave an assurance that his government would try its best to assist them.
He said that his government has taken up massive efforts and will continue to do so in the future to help those Myanmar nationals.
Zoramthanga said that he had also urged the Centre several times to provide political asylum to the Myanmar nationals.
He had earlier said that the Centre assured the Mizoram government that it will take measures to ensure that the state government can continue to provide assistance to the Myanmar nationals.

Northern Rock brings a small ray of sunshine amid the gloom, but No 10 still looking for ways to be cheerful
The taxpayer will just about get his shirt back on the sale of the 'good' bit of Northern Rock. We bought it for £1.4bn, when it collapsed, and Virgin Money have offered £747million, plus various other profit related payments that in time will take that to over £1bn. Of course, we are still stuck with £21bn in toxic debt squirrelled away in the "bad" bit of the Rock, which the taxpayer is still stuck with. Watching George Osborne outside No 11 earlier, two things were noticeable. First was the evident relief at having something marginally good to announce. Putting aside the bottom line, he wants people to know that the banking system is gradually getting back to normal, or as Mr Osborne puts it, "an important first step in getting the British taxpayer out of the business of owning banks". Offloading a bit of Northern Rock helps push that idea. It helps too that Virgin Money has agreed to base its operations in Newcastle and forego redundancies for three years: a good message for the Coalition and the Tories in the Northeast (though let's hope Virgin doesn't then spoil Dave's re-election campaign by announcing job losses in early 2015).
The other thing was his repeat reference to "families", as if they were the only customers that matter. The agony inside Number 10 about the Coalition's dwindling support among women grows by the day, helped we are told by Andrew Cooper's polling. They want to find ways of sounding soft, which is why the Chancellor was at his compassionate best. "The Government is doing everything it can to help people at this difficult time. I accept it's a very difficult time for the British economy and the world economy. We are taking the right steps to move the economy forward," he said. His autumn statement is making everyone a bit nervous because his message risks being awfully bleak. Dave and Nick Clegg are planning a press conference for Monday in an attempt to put an upbeat gloss on things ahead of it.

A quick post over at Joystiq is talking about two Electronic Arts titles that underperformed this holiday season, survival horror title Dead Space and the, um, brightly colored Mirror’s Edge. Both are considered relative failures, even though each sold just over one million copies. One million copies. There are labels that celebrate when games sell that well. I guess one million isn’t impressive next to multimillion-selling juggernauts like Rock Band, but especially for new untested intellectual property going out into a market that sometimes shies away from any game that isn’t a sequel to something, that’s not that bad, right?
Game development for the high-definition consoles can be prohibitively expensive, which really puts the pressure on efforts like Dead Space and Mirror’s Edge, two games that were generally well-received but didn’t set the world on fire especially in the midst of the holiday rush. They need to pay for themselves but they can’t possibly, and so perfectly good games and franchises are swept under the rug. Such is the way of our business-oriented industry. Financial pressure in this God-awful recession is going to stifle high-profile attempts to innovate, leaving all the interesting stuff to indie developers. That’s okay, I guess, but is it wrong that I also want interesting envelope-pushing games that deliver a longer more story-driven experience?
I hope people like EA keep taking chances, because it keeps things interesting. These Trying Times are making that kind of thing harder than it ought to be.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend! This is Day 3 of Get Togethers and Cookouts! My grandfather was a Veteran of World War I and my dad was in the National Guard for many years. A special thanks to the many who gave all so we can do Get Togethers with family and friends in this land of freedom!
I have been cleaning today getting ready for some more company. Of course, I did have to stop to get crafty for a bit. I am playing along with this week's MFT Sketch Challenge 177. I am also playing along with the Fusion Challenge. I chose to use the inspiration picture not the sketch.
I started with MFT Smooth White card stock for the base. I used MFT Card Stock sampler kraft and wild cherry. I used Blueprints 15 to die cut background panel using kraft. I stamped with some tonal ink using MFT Woodgrain BG stamp. Next, I used MFT Polka Dot Cover Up with the wild cherry card stock. I pieced together a frame using the larger of the Rectangle Frame dies. I layered white card stock behind the polka dotted die cut. I die cut the middle frame from Blueprints 1 using vellum because I did not want to cover up all of my polka dots. I stamped and adhered using dimensionals the Forget Me Not stamps and Forget Me Not dies. The sentiment I used is from Pretty Poppies stamp set. I then cut out circles and a button from MFT Blueprints 1, Blueprints 15, and Blueprints 14. I finished my card with a hemp cord bow behind the paper button. I love the hemp cord because it does not fray or get fuzzy like jute.
As always thanks so much for stopping by!

Latkans that makes the outfit sharper.
Different types of latkans that transform the look of an outfit which can make the outfit look more sharper and adorable. They have the power to convert a plain skirt or a plain blouse in a fashionable outfit. Some of the types are:
Design of a flower
The design having flower motifs, they make the outfit look fresh and fancy, the contrast color of a latkan to the outfit makes it look more attractive, just like in this blue outfit having pink lotus flower latkans.
They are a little heavy which will give the simple dress a unique look. It is hard for a bride to stay away from these types of latkans, so for every bridal dress, those are the perfect latkans.
More the colors, more the attraction. Just a simple dress with those colorful fabric hand made tassels gives a funky element to the simple suit making it all elegant.
Wooden cut latkans keep it all-natural and unique, different unique designs like wheels, cycles, flowers are made out of it, which gives the royal look as it is of natural wood color only, that suits with any color of outfit.
Pomp Pomp latkans
Pomp-pomp never goes out of the trend and manages to stay everyone’s favorite being the first priority. Either a matching latkan or a contrast one both uplifts the look.

Yes I’m sure it’ll be fine. Have you cut it back yet? I usually cut mine back to about 8-12” about now. You’ll get lots more growth from the base of the plant. 😊

It wasn't pretty, but it was dramatic. The Miami Dolphins waited until the final five minutes of the game in Los Angeles to pull out the improbable victory. It was, dare I say, Tebow-esk.
Now the Fins sit on a five-game winning streak and in second place in the AFC East. Don't worry, Patriots fans, we're not feeling that cocky that we think we'll catch you (though anything can happen). And all that talk six weeks ago about benching quarterback Ryan Tannehill, or trading players, or dismantling the team, is in the rearview mirror...for now.

Pauciarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is the most common type of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. It affects children under 16. Symptoms include pain and swelling in the knees and other large joints. But treatment might help reduce pain for children and improve how they perform daily activities.
In this article, we take a closer look at pauciarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, including causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment.
Two names for one condition
Pauciarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is an older name for a condition that is now sometimes called oligoarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). While you’ll likely still see both names used, they each refer to the same condition.
Pauciarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (PJRA) is a form of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Oligoarticular JIA is a newer name for the condition.
All forms of JIA cause swelling and inflammation in the joints of children under 16. A diagnosis of PJRA means that four or fewer joints are impacted. PJRA generally causes inflammation in the knees or other large joints. About half of children with JIA have PJRA.
PJRA often resolves quickly without resulting in joint damage. When PJRA lasts longer than 6 months, it’s called persistent oligoarthritis. When PJRA lasts longer than 6 months and begins to affect more than four joints, it’s referred to as extended oligoarticular JIA. About one-third of children with PJRA will develop extended oligoarticular JIA.
Pauciarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis vs. polyarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis
PJRA is distinct from polyarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. At least five joints are affected when a child has polyarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. These often include small joints, such as the joints in a child’s hands and feet. About 50 percent of children with JIA have polyarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.
PJRA doesn’t have a known cause yet. But like all forms of rheumatoid arthritis, PJRA is an autoimmune condition. Autoimmune conditions occur when something causes your immune system to attack your healthy cells and tissues.
PJRA can sometimes run in families. There’s a link between PJRA and an inherited gene called HLA antigen DR4. Researchers believe that people who have this gene are more likely to develop PJRA.
Other risk factors include:
- Developing an infection. An infection or illness can trigger PJRA in children, especially if they have the HLA antigen DR4. But more research into this link still needs to be done.
- Being a girl. Girls might have a higher likelihood of developing PJRA than boys.
- Being a girl younger than 7. Girls between the ages of 2 and 7 may be more likely to develop PJRA.
- Being a boy older than 8. Boys could have an increased chance of experiencing PJRA after 8 years old.
The peak number of new cases of PJRA is 2 to 3 years old. The condition is rarely seen after 10 years old.
The symptoms of PJRA can vary depending on the child and on the joints affected. A child with PJRA typically walks with a limp in the morning and may or may not mention having pain. Children are often brought to a doctor because of a swollen knee.
Some children will have symptoms daily, but other children will only have symptoms during episodes or flare-ups of their PJRA. Symptoms include:
- swollen knee, shoulder, elbow, ankle, or other joints
- painful and stiff joints in the morning or after a nap
- difficulty using joints
- joints that are warm, red, or discolored
- decreased appetite
- eye inflammation
- trouble gaining weight
There’s no single test for PJRA right now. Instead, doctors will look at your child’s symptoms and medical history. Tests will be done to rule out other conditions.
Your child’s doctor might refer to a specialist called a pediatric rheumatologist to confirm a diagnosis of PJRA. As a rule, PJRA can only be diagnosed in children who are under 16 years old, and who have been experiencing symptoms for at least 6 weeks.
The following tests may be done to confirm or rule out other conditions:
Your child will likely have blood drawn. Antibodies that are often seen in other types of rheumatoid arthritis, such as rheumatoid factor (RF), are typically negative. The antinuclear antibody (ANA) can be positive in PJRA, which can increase the chance of eye inflammation (iritocyclitis/uveitis).
Other tests may be done to look for variances that could point to other conditions such as Lyme disease, malignancies, and other types of arthritis. Inflammatory markers may also be elevated, including C-reactive protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR).
The treatment for PJRA depends on the child. Doctors will consider your child’s age, symptoms, and overall health when they develop a treatment plan. Treatment will focus on reducing pain and managing symptoms.
Treatments might include:
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medicines (NSAIDs). NSAIDs may help reduce inflammation and pain.
- Corticosteroid medicines. Intraarticular glucocorticoid injections might reduce inflammation and treat pain for children with severe PJRA symptoms.
- Disease-modifying antirheumatic medicines (DMARDs). Nonbiologic DMARDS — such as methotrexate, sulfasalazine, or leflunomide — work to manage inflammation and reduce symptoms.
- Biologics. Biologics such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF) blockers can calm down your child’s immune system. It might be an option if other medications aren’t helping.
- Physical and occupational therapy. Physical and occupational therapy sessions might help your child improve their strength and their ability to do daily tasks such as dressing and bathing.
- Eye exams. Children with PJRA might experience eye inflammation more often. Regular eye exams may help catch and treat any problems.
- Diet and weight management. Maintaining a moderate weight could reduce the symptoms of PJRA. An anti-inflammatory diet could also help manage pain.
- At home pain relief. Getting plenty of rest, taking warm baths for joint pain, and using ice packs can help your child manage pain at home.
- Low impact exercise. Your child’s doctor might recommend exercise that’s easy on their joints, such as yoga.
The outlook for PJRA can vary. Some children will recover completely within a few months. Other children might have symptoms for years, or symptoms that get worse as they age. Worsening symptoms can lead to complications with bone growth, eye health, and even organ function.
But treatment can help children with PJRA manage their symptoms and prevent complications. Your child’s pediatric rheumatologist can develop a treatment plan focused on managing pain and improving your child’s ability to perform daily activities. Many children with PJRA are able to manage their symptoms, attend schools, and do other activities.
PJRA is a type of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. The condition is also called oligoarticular JIA.
About half of children with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis have PJRA. PJRA typically impacts large joints such as the knees and shoulders. It causes swelling, pain, and stiffness.
PJRA occurs in children under 16 and can be managed with a combination of pain relieving medication and physical therapy. Some children recover from PJRA without any complications, but other children might experience worsening symptoms as they get older. But treatment may help children with PJRA manage their symptoms and improve how they complete daily tasks.

A relative who I won't name for fear of embarrassing her, recently called me, concerned about the nature of my book. She had heard through the Jamaican grapevine that my book was slack, which compelled her to flip through the stories herself. She wanted to know: “How do you expect decent Jamaicans to read the book?” I said something to the effect of, "But decent Jamaicans have read the book." She had a counter: “But how do you expect these stories to be taught in schools in Jamaica?” I tried to explain that this hadn't occurred to me, that I wanted to be true to my characters’ lives—how they speak, the things they would do. She seemed disappointed but resigned.
Sometimes I feel shy when I hear of older Caribbean people reading my book. Someone will tell me that they gave the book to their mother. It's similar to how I feel when I think of my very religious mother and other relatives reading any of the stories. Half-seriously, I always imagined that I would annotate the table of contents for my mother, out of respect of her, so that she’d know which stories she’d feel most comfortable reading. I also imagine that a similar rating system could be helpful for parents wanting to know which stories are appropriate for children. So today, I annotated the table of contents mostly for fun and because it seemed like an interesting way to spend a few minutes. But I found the process to be confusing because rating the stories felt like simplifying them. I had the feeling that I was reducing my stories in a way that had nothing to do with me. I soon turned to something else. I was too bored to continue. I couldn’t even bother to correct the misspelling of cussing haha.
P.S. I’ll offer my mother “Mash Up Love,” “Mermaid River,” and “How to Love a Jamaican”

On July 30, Puentes Al Futuro, or Bridges to the Future, a five-week summer camp for at-risk youth living in Windham held its closing ceremony. Puentes Al Futuro is a grant-funded program sponsored by Eastern Connecticut State University’s Center for Community Engagement (CCE) and staffed by student volunteers.
Sixty students in the sixth, seventh and eighth grades participated in the event. While they received instruction from certified teachers in music, dance, swimming and language arts, the primary focus was on self-exploration and helping the students attain a better understanding of their culture and heritage. “Our goal is to help these children flourish in their own skin,” said Puentes Al Futuro Director Max Goto.
At the same time that camp participants learned swimming and dancing, English Language Learners were encouraged to develop their language skills while interacting with their peers in a positive, fun environment. One of the project’s premises is that this interaction makes the students’ assimilation into Windham Public Schools easier.
“If you know who you are, you know where you’re going,” was the mantra often repeated to the students by Rosie Hernandez, the family liaison for Windham Middle School and one of the driving forces behind Puentes Al Futuro. Hernandez plays an integral role in ensuring that this program continues to happen year after year. In addition to being solely responsible for the recruitment and application processes, Hernandez was referred to as the “heart and soul of the program,” by CCE Director Kim Silcox. “You can clearly see her passion for what she does through the way she interacts with students,” Silcox continued. “These children are her top priority.”
Goto reiterated the importance of the Bridges program. “This program allows us to lend a helping hand to students in the local community by providing a fun and exciting camp that is also academically and culturally relevant,” Goto said. “By fostering a relationship between these children and Eastern students, we are able to show the kids that higher education is an obtainable goal and hopefully jumpstart their future collegiate careers.”

Cash Cash have had a monster year. Not only has the trio released an official remix for The Pussycat Dolls, but they've also collaborated with Andy Grammer on "I Found You" as well as with Wrabel on "Mean It" and Laura White on "Gasoline." Today, they're back with a future bass single featuring Georgia Ku entitled "Love You Now."
"Love You Now" is an upbeat track powered by the signature sound that fans of Cash Cash know and love. Georgia Ku's passionate vocals take over right from the get-go with melancholic lyrics that play against the overall feel of the song. The drop serves as a moving future bass moment with finely tuned vocal chops and reverberating synths. Cash Cash has found a formula that works and "Love You Now" is a shining example of their refined sound.

LABELS: MOON HARBOUR
Timelessness and innovation – both poles can be unified in house music. For more than 10 years now Norman Weber and Marco Resmann have been living out their love for house together both at the turntables and in the studio as Luna City Express.
Music and nightlife inspired both of them from early on. Norman often accompanied his father, a musician and DJ, on tour where absorbed a melting pot of party music, from Funk and Disco to HipHop and Acid Jazz. At 14 he heard his first Chicago House Mix on tape – a musical revelation and the beginning of his subsequent career.
For Marco discovering electronic music happened in the early 90’s in a friend’s basement studio where he first started delving into drum machines and synthesizers. What followed was a rapid journey through producing all the imaginable variations of electronic music as they occurred in Berlin in the 90’s.
In 1999 Marco set up his Audiogain studio and established himself as a producer, producing as a solo artist under the pseudonym Phage and also in projects like Pan-Pot or Phage & Daniel Dreier, releasing on labels like Mobilee, Klang Elektronik and Highgrade. In 2007 he founded the label Upon You with Marcus Meinhardt and Hawks Grunert.
At a millennium party in Italy Norman and Marco crossed paths for the first time and clicked immediately – two house nerds had found each other. When Norman moved from Jena to Berlin they began to play as a DJ team, organised own parties and produced their first tracks together, a mixture of Downbeat, TripHop and Deep House.
In 2004 for the 10 year anniversary of the legendary Thuringian club Muna, Norman and Marco for the first time produced under the name Luna City Express – and till this day still feel closely connected to the club as well as Sonne Mond Sterne festival where they continue to perform year after year. One year later they released two very successful EPs on Moon Harbour – “Fresh” and “White Russian”. Both tracks became club hits, laying a blueprint for how classic and contemporary house could sound in the new millennium.
Beside remixes and releasing on labels like Justified Cause and Enliven Music, Moon Harbour has truly become the home of Luna City Express, and at the same time they’ve played an essential part in developing the label’s sound. Together they mixed the second volume of the well-known “Moon Harbour Inhouse” compilation series, and release their debut artist album “Hello From Planet Earth” in autumn 2009. The album brings together 14 outstanding tracks – from techno to experimental, going from euphoric to quiet moments. It’s an eclectic album, not just for the club, and is all held together by the unique Luna City Express house vibe. And so it’s no surprise that every weekend they get to share that vibe to fans across Germany, Europe and the rest of the world.
Hello guys! How Are You, are you prepared for the German winter?
We’re doing great but we’re not really prepared for the winter. It’s damn cold in Berlin!
What is behind your Pseudonym “Luna City Express”, from where came the idea to name your project like this?
We introduced this project name along with the 10th anniversary of the Muna Club in Germany. Luna is always with us at night, city means future and express sometimes excess. A journey to the moon and back, some of us might join to stay in the city above.
Such a long time as a Duo. A lot of collabs and DJ Teams are coming and going. You guys are standing tall with massively successful! How would you describe your relationship and how do you manage 2 individuals with having a mind of one´s own?
Time flies, isn’t it? We’re DJ’ing together since 15 years and played always B2B. We’re also knowing each other for 15 years and our project LCE exists for 10 years now. We’re friends, got the same taste of music, food and many other stuff, which makes it pretty easy to come along with each other. This all pretty much sums it up.
Please tell us a bit about your latest and upcoming releases!
We launched our label Luna City Lab this year and working on the second release, which is scheduled for 2015. We just finished remixes for Sidney Charles and Supernova. Regarding to our 10th anniversary we just released a little „best-of“ compilation on Moon Harbour. The second part of this anniversary compilation will be released beginning of 2015. It’s gonna be a package of ten remixes from artists like Kevin Yost, Supernova, Oliver Dollar and Enzo Siragusa. Another big mission is to finish our second album that we wanna release as well in 2015.
Where were your latest gigs and what experience you made while touring?
We recently played for example in London, Bern, Milan, Berlin, Göteborg, Amsterdam and Leipzig. It’s always fun to travel and meet friends, new people or new crews. Unfortunately there’s always not that much time to do things like seightseeing or record shopping. Most of the times it’s all about hotels, restaurants and clubs.
What was your funniest or craziest experience while touring?
There’s always somthing funny or crazy that happens while touring. Maybe we should write it all down in a tour diary
What are your top 5 tracks that are really working the dance floor in your sets at the moment?
Luna City Express – I Don’t Think So (Sidney Charles Remix)
Metodi Hristov – Assuming Control (Sven Tasnadi remix)
D’Julz – Ze Box
ONNO & Okain – Set Me Back
Audiojack – Traction

We love our dogs. We want nothing but the best for them. And, when their behavior is troubling or even dangerous we want competent professional help.
The trouble is dog training is an unregulated profession. Lots of professions require state licenses, including exterminators, hair and nail professionals, plumbers and electricians, and veterinarians and vet techs (of course). Dog training is not on the list in any U.S. state.
We are self-regulated. Anyone can call himself or herself a dog trainer. So, what should you look for when choosing a trainer or dog behavior consultant? What’s the most important factor?
Education is certainly very important. Competent dog behavior professionals invest a lot of time and money into learning their profession. The very best engage in hours of continuing education every year. They focus on learning Applied Behavior Analysis, best practices for teaching humans and dogs, as well as dog handling skills.
Experience is great, so long as the trainer is practicing sound techniques backed by reliable behavior science. Anyone can do things wrong for a long time. Quality experience requires learning the profession well and putting it into practice effectively year after year.
Credentialing is essential. Excellent dog trainers and dog behavior consultants look to their peers for standards of excellence and accountably. This is different than winning ribbons at dog shows. While that may prove a trainer can effectively teach a number of skills to his own dog, it does not speak to how he teaches his human clients with a variety of dog behavior issues. Professional certification, however, requires that the dog behavior professional prove his or her breadth and depth of knowledge and skills. The two most honored certifications are the Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT) and the Certified Dog Behavior Consultant (CDBC). Each is rigorous in its requirements to achieve and maintain.
Education, experience and credentials are all important. But, none is as key as this last factor when choosing a dog trainer or dog behavior consultant.
Transparency. Your trainer or behavior consultant should be able to answer your questions before you hire him or her. How will you treat my dog if he does something wrong? Challenge him or her to be specific. What will you do when my dog does something correctly? What training tools do you use? And yes, what is your education, experience, and what credentials have you earned? Look for clarity in the answers, offered freely and without hesitation. Qualified dog behavior professionals should have web sites rich with information and modest in their promises. Sure, a bit of marking is fine. But, we all know what it means if something sounds too good to be true. Look for authenticity. Behavior consultants and trainers who value transparency will post videos of their work. They will seek and share feedback from clients. They will write blogs about their cases; publish their knowledge; put themselves out there to see.
Excellent trainers and behavior consultants celebrate positive reinforcement learning. They are eager to teach it to you. Beware the trainer who wants to take your dog away and won’t disclose what happens behind their closed doors. Remember transparency. The dog trainer you are looking for has nothing to hide.

papier-mâché bulldog barking pull-toy from the late 19th c. … with an unintended pulled apart head. The dog was not intended to look so scary and actually probably made the pride and joy of a small kid – which cracked us up every time we looked at it, I mean how scary would it be to cuddle now ? It would have taken a very brave kid to handle this dog, or a nice fixing, for which we would need all the bravery we could ask the conservators’ gods for.

Efforts to reinvigorate Turkey’s EU accession won’t succeed

The recent move to breathe new life into Turkey’s stalled EU accession process is unlikely to have much effect beyond providing Ankara with a minor domestic and international public relations boost. On 17 May, Turkey’s EU minister and chief negotiator Egemen Bagis and European Commissioner for Enlargement Stefan Fule launched what they dubbed a positive agenda for EU-Turkish relations. The agenda introduces new mechanisms for communication, including specific working groups, intended to accelerate Turkey’s compliance with the acquis communitaire in eight chapters, including two that are blocked for political reasons. But the efforts are insufficient to counter the underlying structural problems impeding Turkey’s now long-stalled EU accession.
Turkish authorities have not opened any new chapters of the EU acquis since 2010; talks on 18 of the 34 chapters cannot move ahead because of political issues and open ones cannot be provisionally closed. An important obstacle continues to be Turkey’s failure to move on politically difficult reforms needed to bring the country’s laws in line with European standards, especially on the judiciary and fundamental rights. Bagis’s statements suggesting that Turkey would be in full compliance with the EU acquis by 2014 are largely political rhetoric with little substance.
Cyprus is a huge stumbling block. U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has decided not to call a follow-up international conference on Cyprus because there has been no advance since the January talks on the issue. This makes it impossible for the conflict to be resolved before July, when the Republic of Cyprus (RoC) government assumes the EU presidency. Turkey will freeze its relations with the EU presidency for six months in protest, though contacts with the European Commission and the European Parliament will continue.
The RoC’s exploration for hydrocarbons in the eastern Mediterranean has exacerbated its contentious relations with Turkey. Turkey claims some areas included in the RoC’s new licensing round for further explorations extend onto Turkey’s continental shelf, and that any revenues must be shared with the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC). While the dispute is not likely to escalate into a military conflict, Turkey may continue its gunboat diplomacy, further intensifying tensions. Turkey is now also considering fallback options including pressing other Muslim states to recognize the TRNC.
The new agenda may not result in major advances on EU accession, but it will give the Turkish government some advantages. Ankara can secure public recognition from the EU and boost its domestic popularity even when minor steps are taken. The effort also has bureaucratic advantages, providing another way for both the Turkish Ministry for EU Affairs and the European Commission’s Turkey desk, the largest desk operating under the Directorate-General for Enlargement, to justify their existence.

Robbie Williams (born Robert Peter Williams, 13.2.1974) Robbie Williams is a British pop singer and songwriter. He rose to fame as a member of the boy band Take That and has experienced continued success with his solo career.
Childhood: Robbie Williams was raised in Stoke-on-Trent, by his mother Janet and his father Peter Williams. He also has a sister, Sally.
Robbie attended Mill Hill Primary School, followed by St. Margaret Ward's Roman Catholic School in Tunstall.
Music Career: Along with Mark Owen, Gary Barlow, Jason Orange and Howard Donald, Robbie Williams formed Take That in 1990. The band became hugely successful, with their debut album spawning four number one singles in the UK.
Robbie Williams quit the group in 1995. His increasing drug use had led to a near-overdose before performance at the MTV Europe Awards show. After leaving the band, Robbie Williams was frequently photographed out partying with members of Oasis, especially Liam Gallagher and Noel Gallagher. He even attended Glastonbury Festival with them that year.
Robbie William's first solo release was a cover of 'Freedom' by George Michael. It reached number two in the UK singles chart.
Williams was then introduced to Guy Chambers, with whom he would have a long-standing songwriting partnership. The debut single, Life Thru A Lens, was released in September 1997. The fourth single from the album, 'Angels' became his best-selling single in the UK and has been certified double platinum.
Robbie Williams' second solo album, I've Been Expecting You, was released the following year and was hugely successful. The first track, 'Millenium', was inspired by the work of John Barry (specifically his James Bond music). 'No Regrets' was a collaboration between Williams, Neil Tennant of the Pet Shop Boys and Neil Hannon of The Divine Comedy. The fourth single from the album was another cover: 'She's The One' originally featured on the World Party album Egyptology.
The Ego Has Landed was Williams's first album for Capitol Records and was released in July 1999 and saw his international profile increase considerably, especially in the USA and Canada.
The debut single taken from 2000's Sing When You're Winning was 'Rock DJ'. The song was reportedly inspired by the late Ian Dury. Its follow-up single, 'Kids' was a collaboration with Kylie Minogue.
Williams' next album was recorded during a two-week break from touring and was heavily inspired by his love of singers such as Frank Sinatra. The album was entitled Swing When You're Winning and the first track, 'Have You Met Miss Jones?' which was included on the soundtrack for the film adaptation of Bridget Jones' Diary.
Swing When You're Winning included a number of duets, with artists including Jane Horrocks, Jonathan Wilkes, Nicole Kidman and Rupert Everett.
Robbie Williams signed an £80 million recording contract with EMI in 2002. The contract was well-publicised, as it was one of the highest-value contracts ever signed in the music industry at that time. Williams began writing without the help of Guy Chambers and 'One Fine Day' and 'Nan's Song' were two of the tracks that first wrote on his own. His fifth solo album, Escapology, was released across the globe in 2002.
The track 'Something Beautiful' was originally intended for Tom Jones, but the track was reworked and included on Escapology. Shortly after its release, Williams played three live concerts at Knebworth House, which attracted a total of 375,000 fans.
In 2004, Robbie Williams started working with Stephen Duffy (also known as Stephen 'Tin Tin' Duffy). Some of his collaborations with Duffy were included on his 2004 Greatest Hits album. One of the tracks, 'Radio' went straight to number one upon its release in the UK.
Robbie Williams and Stephen Duffy continued to work together for Williams' next album, Intensive Care. The track 'Ghosts' was inspired by 'Louise' by the Human League.
In November 2005, a documentary about Take That was screen ed on ITV1. Robbie Williams decided not to attend the preview screening in Notting Hill West London. The rest of the band was reunited for the event.
Williams' next album was entitled Rudebox. The album ventured into dance and electronic territory, far more than his previous album and featured collaborations with William Orbit, Pet Shop Boys, Mark Ronson and Joey Negro. The album received mixed reviews.
The single 'Bongo Bong and Je Ne T'Aime Plus', a duet with Lily Allen, was released in Latin America in 2007.
2009 saw the release of a new album from Robbie Williams. Entitled Reality Killed The Video Star, the album features production work from Trevor Horn and the first track, 'Bodies', was debuted on Chris Moyles' BBC Radio 1 show.
Robbie Williams also stated in 2009 that he felt ready to re-join Take That.
Personal Life: Robbie Williams has had a number of friendships with high-profile celebrities and has stated that it was Elton John who first booked him into a clinic to deal with his drug addiction. He has been romantically linked with Rachel Hunter and is now married to Ayda Field
Although it's his most famous song, 'Angels' is too emotionally difficult for Robbie to sing.
To the shock of his fans, Robbie Williams has indicated that he’s going to stop performing his most famous song, ‘Angels’, on his upcoming tour – because it’s too hard for him to sing.
The 43 year old former Take That star is planning a new tour and, because he wants to showcase new material, is intending on pruning many of his classic hits from the setlist, starting with ‘Angels’, by far and away his most iconic song.
‘Angels’, which was an enormous hit in 1997 and is a karaoke classic and radio station staple to this day, is one of those songs that virtually everybody has attempted to sing while drunk. But that’s part of the reason why Williams is considering dropping it – because he’s struggling to maintain his cool while he sings it.

He confesses he was in intensive care for a week after brain abnormalities were found.
Robbie Williams had quite the frightening experience earlier this year after he was hospitalised for a whole week due to 'abnormalities' in his brain. He was rushed to intensive care after suffering stroke-like symptoms backstage while on tour in Europe, though he still wanted to continue his series of shows.

The 43-year-old ended up in the ICU for 7 days after falling ill backstage at a stadium in Zurich on September 2nd 2017, forcing him to cancel his remaining two dates of his Heavy Entertainment Show tour in Russia. He opened up about the serious health scare in a new interview.
Williams released a YouTube video explaining the reason for his tour cancellation last month.
Having cancelled a section of his tour recently, Robbie Williams has revealed that he made the decision because he had received some “very worrying” test results that saw him get admitted to intensive care in hospital.
The 43 year old singer, who released his most recent album The Heavy Entertainment Show this time last year, cancelled three prestigious gigs in Russia in September at the end of his recent European tour, without offering an explanation.
However, on Wednesday (October 25th), Williams has shared a YouTube video in which he details the reasons for the cancellations – and they’re a lot more alarming than anybody could have thought.

Speaking to the Daily Star newspaper, he said: ''I'm definitely running out of ideas. I don't know how many ways I can say: 'I'm neurotic and I messed up. Or: 'I love you, love me, I'm thick.' Or: Women, I like women.'
