A Pennsylvania man who is confined to a wheelchair was fired from his job as a Walmart greeter after working for the company for nearly 21 years.
Danny Ockenhouse, 41, worked at the East Stroudsburg Walmart location as a greeter, according to the Pocono Record.
His required use of a motorized wheelchair did not stop him from directing shoppers to the products they needed or checking receipts of those leaving the store.
Ockenhouse’s employment at Walmart came to an end after nearly 21 years when he was let go because the company's decision to replace greeters with hosts.
In May, Walmart announced it would still have greeters in some stores, but others would have the newly created position of customer host, Consumerist reported.
The host position has different responsibilities where the risks for theft, safety and security are higher. The hosts would wear yellow vests instead of blue ones, deter shoplifters, make customers feel welcome and maintain clean and safe entrances.
Only about a third of Walmart store’s will have hosts, and it is determined by the amount of shoplifters at the location.
Walmart spokesman Kory Lundberg confirmed greeters are being replaced with hosts in stores with greater theft and security issues, according to the Pocono Record.
Due to Ockenhouse’s limitations, he has less opportunities in the workplace than others. Walmart gave other greeters new jobs in the store, but he says the company did not offer him one.
“I can do parts of a lot of jobs, but they said I have to be able to lift 50 pounds, put groceries in the back of people’s cars,” Ockenhouse said.
“Being in a wheelchair doesn’t preclude someone from being a host,” Lundberg said.
Lundberg said Ockenhouse opted to not apply for the positions displaced greeters are eligible for, including cashiers, fitting room attendants and shelf stockers.
Ockenhouse wants his job as a greeter back.
“I just want my job back, and I want to be appreciated," he said with tears in his eyes. “The customers appreciate me.”

A cat’s emotional and physical well-being is determined by how well pet parents are meeting a cat’s needs. These needs are equally divided among social, eating, sleeping, grooming, and hunting. Cats are both predator and prey and are literally analyzing everything in terms of being safe or being in danger. This includes every time they interact with you or other people, hear a sound, see a movement, smell something different. They are doing this every second of every day. Knowing this, we can provide a safer and more enriching environment to keep our pets healthy and happy. Here are some tips to help:
Play should always mimic hunting styles and include all aspects of the hunt (eye, stalk, chase, pounce, kill) and engage a cat’s senses of sight, sound, taste, smell, and touch. There are a multitude of toy choices or activities that are satisfying. Some of my favorites are toys on a pole, wand toys, and laser lights (providing the cat gets the red dot in the end). Interactive play between a pet owner stimulates the brain, provides exercise, combats boredom, and strengthens your relationship. Plus, it’s what cats like to do. Keeping cats inside where they are safe while providing enrichment makes for a happy and healthy cat.
Feeding can be done with food puzzles and slow feeders. Ditch the bowl for something that encourages foraging and hunting. Move the food around the house at different locations so they can search. Where would your cat want to eat? Feed it there! If you have a multi-cat household, spreading the food around gives cats more personal space to eat. Some cat behaviorists believe that how we feed a cat is as important as what we feed them.
Cats sleep 12-16 hours a day. Heated cat beds, perches, boxes or containers, a carrier, quiet places, and a spot in the sun are wonderful accoutrements for a sleepy cat.
Grooming is super important and serves more purposes than you might imagine. It hides a cat’s scent from predators, cleans injuries, removes debris and parasites from fur, and disperses natural oils in the skin. Cats love to be washed and enjoy grooming their housemates as well. One thing we can do for them that they like is wash their whiskers and mouth with a warm washcloth. Cats, being social animals, would enjoy an indoor environment that engages all of the senses. Cats love window perches, vertical climbing spaces, wall shelves, sun beam chasing, catios, cat friendly-music, videos, cat plant grass, fish tanks, and companionship. You can even bring the outside in by gathering leaves and placing them in a box for your cat to explore.
Take a look around your home from your cat’s perspective and see what delights you can add to your cat’s world. Giving your cat ways to display their natural behaviors will help reduce stress and give them more choices. Happy Cat, Happy Home!
An ah-ha moment with my reactive dog, Davy, that led to my new signature offer – Reactive Dog Training. People with reactive dogs have few resources to turn to for help – until now. I saw the need and decided to fill the gap for this small community of pet owners.
Reactive dogs can’t handle being in a class, are turned away from doggie day care, and are difficult to walk around the neighborhood. In fact, pet owners of reactive dogs find themselves doing little of the activities they planned to do with their pup. They avoid walking them, stop inviting visitors over, and grieve for the dog they wanted. I know these feeling as I have gone through this with my own dog – Davy.
I made it my quest to help Davy after he was asked not to return to Canine Good Citizenship Class (Who am I kidding? I knew he wouldn’t handle a bunch of strange dogs in the ring at the same time). My lifetime of working with dogs didn’t prepare me for a reactive one. But my quest to find the solution did. It was a game changer. I knew that there was a small community of dog owners who would benefit from learning the answers I found. It has been several months since I have been trialing this new program, and my clients are happy with the results.

When it’s not safe to be outdoors in the heat, games are a way to keep your pets and children from being bored. And I don’t mean board games! These games are just active enough where you won’t break a sweat, but you will still be mentally engaged.
Hide & Seek – Ask your dog to sit, go to another part of the house to hide, call your dog’s name, reward with a treat when you are discovered. Or your child hides with a handful of treats and then calls the pet’s name. When the pet comes running to find the child it is presented with a yummy treat as a reward. This is a fun way to practice recall and for your pet to learn listen to your child’s voice.
Find it – Use toys instead of treats. Let your child hide your pup’s favorite toy; the one that he knows by name. After it is hidden, have your pet hunt for it by saying their name to get their attention, give the command “Find” and the name of the toy. This is a little advanced so let your pet watch you set up the game first a few times. Then see how he does solo.
Find the treat – You and your child can hide treats throughout the house on different surfaces and varying heights (keep it safe). In addition to treats, you can do this with your pet’s meal instead of placing it in a bowl. Mix a variety of textures (chewy, soft, lickable, or crunchy) and observe your dog finding them. Dogs love this stimulating activity and their preferences may surprise you.
Tricks – You and your child can teach your dog some fun tricks. Start with the easy ones: give me your paw, spin left, spin right before adding more advanced tricks like beg, play bow, leg weaves, go around, and so many more. Click here to see instructions for some easy tricks and keep it fun.
Hide Treats in a box – Have your child place a treat in a box and then ask your pet to find it. When your pet understands the game, add more boxes some with and some without treats. Your dog will love the chance to hunt. This is a calming, fun, activity for dogs of any age.
Children and pets can be a great combo. Games and activities can build confidence in our pets and create a strong partnership with children. How we guide their interactions will them help create fond memories that will last a lifetime for them and us.
Turn reactivity to calm confidence with our new program.
Crockett’s Critter Care is now offering reactive dog training. As I have been working with several pets and their owners, I’ve created an eight week program to take reactive dogs to calm confident companions.
During this pilot program, your feedback will be invaluable to refining this new specialized training. As part of the first session you’ll have input on determining handout effectiveness, communication between sessions, and confirmation of the success of your practice sessions. In appreciation for your contribution this eight-week individualized course is being offered at introductory rate of $600.
The pre-launch session has just a few more spots available for this summer. If you have a reactive dog that you’d like to train to be calm and confident, contact me to learn more and reserve your spot.
It is uncomfortable when you have a reactive dog. I know what it’s like: you peek out the window to see if it is a good time to venture out. Then holding the leash very tightly in your hand, in case your dog pulls, lunges, or barks, you head out the door. You dread it when a bicycle rider approaches, children ask if they can pet your dog, or the mail truck passes you on the street. And worst of all is the cat or squirrel that magically appears and sends you pet into full alert.
Having a reactive dog can be worrisome, isolating, and physically wearing. Walks are a challenge, going to the vets is a nightmare, and you stopped inviting visitors over a long time ago. You love your dog, but sometimes you don’t like him.
I’ve been there. In fact, that is why I am so excited about helping you and your dog cope with reactivity, calm your anxieties, and develop a better partnership.
The program I offer is science-based, positive, fun, and a game changer. My formerly reactive German shepherd Davy and I can now walk in the neighborhood, meet other dogs for a walk in the park, and remain calm when faced with challenges that used to be seen as threats. Take advantage of the pre-launch introductory rate package of $600 for the full eight week program and transform your relationship with your dog.
You and your dog don’t have to swelter in the heat and humidity on hot summer days. There are awesome alternatives to walking your dog that can be done inside the comfortable temperature of your home. After all, why do we walk our dogs? We want them to have exercise, mental stimulation, a chance to rummage around a bit, and have a special time with us. But, when the weather too hot, there are other options.
Exercise can be high or low impact. For an active experience – take them to a secure field, a friend’s large yard, a tennis court, or a dog park. For low impact exercises, ACE (Animal Centered Education) Free Work such as distributing food on different surfaces and at different levels instead of filling a bowl, provides opportunities to seek, find, chew, and eat.
Swimming is a fun activity that dogs love. Games are awesome activities – try a flirt pole, urban agility (rudimentary course on your property – Parkour can even be done in your living room), tug games, playing pattern games (left to right, up and down, circle, figure 8’s), tossing a Frisbee or a ball are all great forms of exercise in place of a walk.
Mental stimulation can be satisfied through games and smell. Consider sniffing games, scent work, sniffaris, hide and seek around the house, snuffle mats, licky mats, food puzzles, and trick training.
Scavenging – snuffle mats, snuffle boxes, ACE Free Work, and peanut better filled Kong toys can delight your dog for longer than it takes to catch a treat!
Companionship – play games, give your dog a brushing or a massage, talk to them or just relax with them.
Davy, my German shepherd, loves attention, being brushed, brainwork activities, and exploring. Ginger, my hound dog, likes sniffing and eating. Both are easy to please without taking them for a walk on a hot summer day. You can keep your dogs safe, comfortable, happy, and content with some new exciting choices. What would your dog choose if they could? I challenge you to include three things besides a walk that you can do with your dog this week. Share your experience with a post and a picture.
Spring has arrived! Here are some tips to keep your pets safe and happy as the weather warms up.
Use pet-friendly products for spring cleaning; follow the directions for cleaning and storage.
Hide the antifreeze. If you suspect your pet may have come in contact with or ingested a poisonous substance – call the Animal Poison Control Center immediately at (888) 426-4435.
Clean up the yard. Pick up sticks and acorns that you pet could chew on. These can cause harm to your dog’s mouth and throat. Remove leaf litter where ticks and fleas could hide. Make your yard and garden unattractive to snakes by keeping them tidy.
Cats and screens: Be careful to use strong and sturdy screens in your windows and have them fit snugly. Curious cats can pry screens off their hinges and storms can blow screens off their frames.
Never leave your pet in a parked car. Travel with pets inside the car (not in the back of a pickup) and in a secure crate or seat belt harness to keep them safe, unable to stick their head out the window, or interfere with your driving.
Watch your pet for signs of seasonal allergies. Pets can be allergic to pollen, dust, grasses, and plants. For many pets, this reaction shows up in skin issues. You may notice itching, minor sniffling and sneezing or life-threatening anaphylactic shock from insect bites and stings. If your pet suffers each spring, see the vet to ease their suffering.
Flea and tick control. Check your pet for these pesky critters regularly – especially after they have been in tall grass.
ID tags will help your pet be returned to you, if they go astray.
Xylitol poisoning: there is a significant increase in pets being poisoned by ingesting this artificial sweetener. A tiny amount can be fatal. It can be found in some sugar-free gum, candies, breath mints, baked goods, pudding snacks, cough syrup, children’s chewable or gummy vitamins and supplements, mouthwash, and toothpaste. Xylitol is also showing up in over-the-counter nasal sprays, laxatives, digestive aids, allergy medicines, and prescription human medications, especially those formulated as disintegrating drug tablets (sleep aids, pain relievers, anti-psychotics, etc.) or liquids.
Prep for storms. Gather your hurricane kit together, teach your pet to go into a crate or carrier, and have important papers handy. If your dog is frightened of thunderstorms, ask your vet about medications that can ease your dog’s fears.
Standing water can cause health concerns (Leptospirosis) so don’t let your pet drink from puddles. Steer clear of communal water bowls.
Blue-green algae – keep your dog out of water sources that have been known to be contaminated with this toxin. Always wash your dog after swimming outside. Last August three pets died hours after swimming in a pond in Wilmington, NC.
Sign up for alerts from Dog Food Advisor regarding pet food recalls.
Take your dog out for a special treat to any of our beautiful parks.

It’s one more time to Morningstar Farm for the CanUS Hot Jazz Band, who will be performing once again at the annual Jazz, Tea and Cheesecake event taking place at the farm Sunday, July 15.
The event, now in its 13th year, combines cheesecake, fruit wine samples, tea and coffee, an outdoor stage and experienced jazz musicians for an afternoon.
Back again after their first performance at Morningstar Farm last year is the CanUS Hot Jazz Band, so named for their American and Canadian members.
Playing on a farm is quite a different experience for a band used to smoke-filled clubs (back in the day), said the band’s leader, Toni Blodgett.
“It was a wonderful experience,” she said of last year’s event, noting that they felt so close to nature that, “if the drummer had fallen off his stool, he would have been right in the creek,” with a laugh.
“It was just idyllic, it was lovely,” said Blodgett.
The band has its roots in 1991, when Blodgett had the idea of putting a quartet together.
“Because we didn’t have a big full horn section, we elected to do some singing and one of the things that drove me to form the band was my love of a little trio of singers from New Orleans called the Boswell Sisters,” said Blodgett.
Blodgett’s bandmate, Joey Smith (bass and vocals) re-arranged some Boswell Sisters music, turning it from a three-girl work to something Blodgett and two guys could pull off.
“That’s how we began,” said Blodgett, adding that the band did a good amount of touring right into 2006.
“And the reason we got to travel all over the United States and Western Canada… was because we were so different. Yes we play Dixieland, yes we play some old 1940s swing tunes and Benny Goodman and so-on, but the thing that made us standout was we had this repertoire that nobody else was doing.”
It’s a sound that Ray Haynes (organizer of the event and father to own of the farm’s owners) is happy to have return.
“It’s kind of a blend of New Orleans, Dixie and the vocal music of the Boswell Sisters,” he said.
“People leave tapping their feet, sniffing the air and just feeling a great sense of peace and satisfaction.”
Taking place at Morningstar Farm (403 Lowry’s Rd. in Parksville) from 1:30 p.m. to 4 p.m., tickets are $25 for adults, $10 for students, and those under five years old get in for free.
They can be purchased at the farm, at Mulberry Bush bookstores or at Cranky Dog Music in Parksville.
Haynes noted that he encourages young people to come check out the music.
Attendees are encouraged to bring a lawn chair.
Haynes also noted that “one more time” may also be applicable to the Jazz, Tea and Cheesecake event as a whole, saying there may be some changes in the works for following years. He suggested a change of musical genre is possible, but nothing has been decided, he said.

St. Mary aldermen took care of things in just 11 minutes at their monthly meeting last Thursday.
There were no items on the agenda under either “Unfinished Business” or “New Business.”
Only department reports were given.
For Emergency Management, Director April Grindstaff had nothing to report.
Police Chief Brendon Corbett could not make it to the meeting, but sent a report via email, which City Clerk April Grindstaff read.
In December, he responded to 11 calls for service including harassment calls, traffic stops and ordinance violations. Since the first of the year, he has been notified of two calls for service the Ste. Genevieve Sheriff’s Department had assisted on while he was not available.
Fire Chief Frankie Ullman reported that they replaced the strobe light and modular on Truck 42. He is going to replace DC and AC light on Truck 41 due to wiring. They are going to be ordering the material to finish the new meeting room at the firehouse. He also said they had two calls this month. One was for a medic call and the other one was for and assist on a structure fire with Ste. Genevieve Fire Department.
For the Street Department, Alderman Dr. Zenon Duda said the ditch on Second and Sycamore Street is cleaned out. Mayor Carlton Wyatt said there had been some equipment issues the past few days. The tractor’s heat sensor went out, but was replaced. The big spreader was down at the moment but the smaller spreader was repaired, so crews can still spread cinders on the roads during inclement weather.
For the Water/Wastewater Department, Ullman reported that the water samples were still coming back good. He also suggested that the residents let their faucets drip with the freezing temps coming in the weekend. As for the sewer side, things are going well. He said there were a few issues to go over. He has a few more grinders going down. Some of the grinders the floats need to be replaced
Alderman Brenda Thompson reported that she had nothing to report for Park/Cemetery/Animal Control.

Our products have a good price advantage and cover most of the European and American markets. We look forward to becoming your long-term partner in China.
In the Weldment Hardware accessories, the weld does not crack, and there are many reasons for cracking in use
Weldment Hardware accessories is not removed (e.g. tempering or hydrogen elimination treatment is not carried out),
There is a kind of welding crack called hydrogen induced crack (its cracking time can be after welding or several hours or more after welding)
This is caused by hydrogen white spots or hydrogen pores in the weld.
1.Non standard customization
2.Customized according to customer drawings
Weldment Hardware accessories: mainly compared with castings, there is no model and the cycle is short, so weldments are often selected for a small number of non-standard, frame structure, box structure, etc. As for super large and high-end heavy-duty gears, they can only adopt welded structure, and their light weight has become the best and only choice (if the overall forging is too heavy, the single piece may reach more than 80 tons, which is unacceptable in transportation, processing, heat treatment, assembly and design weight). However, there are very special requirements for welding technology and heat treatment technology, according to the report, Worldwide, only Germany's Simak and China's Nanjing high precision gear group company have mastered this technology.

Beset on 37,687 square meters of area, the design possesses spatial residences with ambient and bountiful open spaces. From its sides, the conventional looking monolithic building stands tall as though a singular cuboid mass. But it’s when you take a stroll within the complex, though, that things really change. The 245 ft. high volumes envelop the lush lawn- creating an introverted complex.
The large circular landscape rises from the ground and engulfs in itself the functions secretly; creating a subtle balance between the nature and the man. It is surrounded by a walking track, giving possibilities to create conversations; also rejuvenate one’s mind on a quiet walk with oneself.
Nonetheless, surrounded by the towering volumes that contain life, the sculptural landscape raised on levels- up and down, creates within itself thoughtful spaces for the individual, and spaces for rendezvous for the mass and crowd.
The internal layout of the 4000-5000 sq. ft. flat is designed paying heed to the traditional Hindu philosophy of Vastu Shastra. With a floor height of 12ft., the design is such that allows the space to converse with oneself- offering sheer luxury to the habitant. A typical floor integrates two houses- creating vistas of the ornate landscape and the surrounding roads and plots, on its either sides. The house is designed in a way that it brings a balance between the workaholic and the chair-warmer in you.
The space utility of the ground floor is enhanced as the parking is being positioned on the two basement floors underneath the Ground level. The ground level thus accommodates within itself numerous amenities to simplify the lives of the dwellers by making all their needs available at their doorstep; and creating a pleasant gathering space.
A unit of a typical flat consists of an office area, home theatre and extravagant decks- connected by a family area and a bedroom. A dip in the burbling waters or sipping your favourite beverage while relaxing on the wooden deck with your family, will undoubtedly make for a perfect evening, indoors.
The surprise really begins when life is brought to the terrace, or the ‘Party Terrace’ as it is rightly called. The terrace holds a peculiar feature of garden and decks with waterbody running across that can become a perfect venue to host a festive dinner. The gazebos and pergolas on the terrace are a gala spot for a cup of chai under the dreamy sky. It allows an individual to instigate a conversation with oneself under the vast expanse. The collonades stretch across the façade of the building unto the terrace and 8 metres higher- keeping us open to sky and yet making us feel secured enough to open our hearts out, at such a height. In the darker hours, a view of the central landscape is as though a starry night sky- only that can be watched from above!

Understand completely, but remember that all Grade 3 guns were special order items and it is not uncommon at all to find a Grade 3 with unique custom features such as the 3E below that looks more like a 5E, or the 3E below ordered with A2 Grade equivalent engraving. And although I've no photo, I've seen one 3E ordered with stepped side plates; so it's OK to take a liberty or two with an engraving repair PROVIDED the work performed is done in the same style as would have been done by period Hunter employees.

Opened on the West Highland Railway.
This is a two platform station typical of the northern portion of the West Highland Railway. The main building, on the up (southbound) platform is Swiss Chalet in style. The north side of the building has been modified with the addition of three small wings - two being extensions of gables and the third being wholly new.
The down platform building and footbridge are both lost. There is the base of a watertank at the east end of the up platform and the signal box. The stationmaster's house still stands to the north.
The former goods loading bank siding has been lifted, but the reversing spur used to access it is still in place.

NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - The Jefferson Parish council backed away from a possible May date to hold carnival parades, family Gras and other major processions. They say the COVID numbers are just too high.
For the past several months Jefferson Parish officials have been avoiding canceling Mardi Gras. They pushed back the date from February 16 to late May, but in a parish with a 16% COVID positivity rate, they say the may date won’t stand.
“We know we aren’t there. The vaccines have been slower than we had hoped and our numbers are on the rise,” said Jefferson parish Councilmember Jennifer Van Vrancken.
The parish council approved a measure that would allow them to possibly set a date later for events such as carnival parades, and Family Gras, causing opponents to speak out.
“I remember 19 parades, now we have eight and if we don’t parade at all there will be Float builders costumers bead merchants who won’t be here, it’s devastating,” said float builder Mac Cantrell.
Jefferson parish council members say this was a painstaking decision because they know how much canceling Mardi Gras will hurt financially.
“Who are these bureaucrats who wreck people’s lives?” said Al Morello, a citizen from Kenner.
“Knowing there’s a fine balance between businesses and what we need to do, no decision has been made lightly,” said JP Councilmember Scott Walker.
In the end, the parish council approved a resolution that would allow them to set a date later if the Covid rate gets better.
“We have to wait for numbers before we get a date certain,” said Van Vrancken.
But some parade leaders say anything later than May might be impossible because it could impact their parade for 2022
Parish officials say they will work to support carnival krewes in any way they can, to help them survive to parade another day.

Companies that have not sufficiently paid into employees' pension funds would have to catch up within seven years under a Bush administration plan to address a multibillion-dollar...
WASHINGTON — Companies that have not sufficiently paid into employees’ pension funds would have to catch up within seven years under a Bush administration plan to address a multibillion-dollar shortfall.
Financially strapped companies also would be prohibited from promising their employees retirement benefits they cannot afford, under the proposal announced yesterday. Companies with pension plans at a higher risk of failing would have to pay higher premiums to the government agency that insures them.
Changes in the system require congressional approval. The plan was described by Labor Secretary Elaine Chao, who also chairs the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corp. (PBGC) board.

The board guarantees pension benefits to workers when companies fail and cannot make good on their retirement-program promises.
“I have become increasingly concerned as the number of terminated plans grows and the PBGC is forced to assume ever-larger liabilities,” Chao said in a luncheon speech at the National Press Club.
The nation’s pension plans are underfunded by an estimated $450 billion because of what she called the “perfect storm of declining equity markets … and low interest rates.”
In November, the guaranty corporation reported a record deficit of $23.3 billion for private, single-employer pension plans. Chao emphasized that the insurance program is “not in immediate danger of collapse” and has enough funds to meet the demands of beneficiaries.
“But if nothing is done, the financial integrity” of the guaranty corporation will be compromised, she said.
Single-employer, private defined-benefit pension plans cover some 20 percent of the nation’s work force and are prevalent in older industries such as automobile manufacturing and commercial airlines.
As an example, the government’s pension agency late last month moved to assume responsibility for United Airlines pilots’ pensions, acknowledging as unfortunate but inevitable the carrier’s elimination of defined-benefit plans for its employees.
The move saddled guaranty corporation with another huge financial burden, an estimated $1.4 billion of the plan’s $2.9 billion in underfunded assets, making it the third-largest claim in the history of the insurance program.
Rep. John Boehner, the Ohio Republican who chairs the House Committee on Education and the Workforce, commended the administration for yesterday’s proposal.
“I’m pleased the Bush administration recognizes the urgent need to strengthen the defined-benefit pension system and has put forth a comprehensive reform proposal,” Boehner said.

This white paper exemplifies the need for multi-scale to advance plant science. Understanding how to modify plant morphology is critical to improving crops. Great progress has been made in quantifying and describing form and patterning in plants using mathematical descriptions and simulations. Yet, work needs to be done to link these mathematical descriptions with biological processes to link the inheritance and activity of genes with observed phenotypes and predict phenotypic response to the environment. The authors call for integration of models of different levels of organization to help researchers understand the complex interdependent processes occurring at multiple spatio-temporal scales. These include genetic and functional–structural plant models.
The authors call for cross-disciplinary education, workshops and funding to bridge the gap between mathematics and plant biology to accelerate scientific progress.

Objective—To evaluate markers of in vivo platelet function (urinary 11-dehydro-thromboxane B2 [11-dehydroTXB2] and 2,3-dinorTXB2) and assess their response to administration of 2 commonly used dosages of aspirin in healthy dogs.
Animals—20 healthy dogs.
Procedures—Urine was collected prior to aspirin administration and on the morning following the last evening administration. Twenty dogs received aspirin (1 mg/kg, PO, q 24 h) for 7 consecutive doses. After a washout period of 5 months, 10 dogs received a single dose of aspirin (10 mg/kg, PO). Concentrations of urinary thromboxane metabolites 11-dehydroTXB2 and 2,3-dinorTXB2 were measured via ELISA, and values were normalized to urine creatinine concentration.
Results—Median baseline 11-dehydroTXB2 concentrations were 0.38 ng/mg of creatinine (range, 0.15 to 1.13 ng/mg). Mean ± SD baseline 2 at a 3-dinorTXB2 concentrations were 6.75 ± 2.77 ng/mg of creatinine. Administration of aspirin at a dosage of 1 mg/kg, PO, every 24 hours for 7 days did not significantly decrease urinary 11-dehydroTXB2 concentration, but administration of the single aspirin dose of 10 mg/kg did significantly decrease 11-dehydroTXB2 concentration by a median of 45.5% (range, 28.2% to 671%). Administration of the 1 mg/kg aspirin dosage significantly decreased urinary 2,3-dinorTXB2 concentration by a mean ± SD of 33.0 ± 23.7%. Administration of the single aspirin dose of 10 mg/kg also significantly decreased 2,3-dinorTXB2 concentration by a mean ± SD of 46.7 ± 12.6%.
Conclusions and Clinical Relevance—Aspirin administration (1 mg/kg/d) may be insufficient for reliable platelet inhibition in healthy dogs.
Objective—To evaluate the components of canine whole blood samples that contribute to results of thromboelastometry (TEM).
Animals—127 healthy dogs.
Procedures—For each dog, a blood sample was collected from a jugular vein into tubes containing no anticoagulant, EDTA, or citrate anticoagulant. Citrated whole blood samples underwent TEM with tissue factor and TEM with ellagic acid. Indicators of RBC mass and platelet concentration were evaluated, and plasma coagulation tests were performed; data obtained were compared with results of TEM. For technical reasons, samples were not available from all dogs for all tests.
Results—Coagulation time was correlated with concentrations of primarily extrinsic pathway coagulation factors for TEM with tissue factor and with most factors via TEM with ellagic acid. Clot formation time, α angle, and maximum clot firmness were highly correlated with fibrinogen and platelet concentrations and some individual factor concentrations. Sample Hct was strongly correlated with most measured variables; low Hct was associated with relative hypercoagulability, and high Hct was associated with relative hypocoagulability.
Conclusions and Clinical Relevance—For TEM of canine blood samples, coagulation time was primarily a function of coagulation factor concentrations, whereas other variables were dependent on platelet and fibrinogen concentrations. Sample Hct strongly influenced the results of TEM, likely because RBCs act as a diluent for plasma coagulation factors. Thromboelastometry appeared to be affected by abnormalities of coagulation factors, platelet concentrations, and RBC mass. In samples from anemic patients, results of TEM indicative of hypercoagulability may be artifactual because of low RBC mass.

|Twister - Australian Shepherd Dog, I'd put money on it
Ears are a bit short and the coat seems very thick and almost wooly? so maybe you've got some sort of Spitz in there too, but he screams ASD to me.
He doesn't look Toller at all. Color matches but NOTHING about the build or structure does....not head, snoot, ears, neck, body structure, tail or coat.
Tollers are still pretty rare despite what some others may suggest. Most owned in the states would never find their way into any sort of backyard breeder or puppy mill situation because they are so rare. To acquire one, one has to put quite the amount of effort in to finding a breeder and most then have them shipped. Owners are well educated on the breed and enthusiasts of the sport, and well educated, well intentioned owners rarely surrender or abandon their dogs, much less still intact and left to procreate willy nilly with other random breeds of dog.
The odds that your Duke is a Toller or any sort of mix are extremely low. If you ever happen to DNA test him and he happens to be some sort of odd mix you ought to pick up a few lottery tickets

Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 2007 Week 6 Hansard (7 June) . . Page.. 1649..
MR SMYTH (continuing):
well and truly cemented in the tourism community. The government needs to reverse the decision of last year's budget.
Narrabundah Long Stay Caravan Park
MRS BURKE (Molonglo) (9.01): I rise this evening on a very serious matter, one in which the Chief Minister really needs to give an explanation to the Canberra community. The matter relates to the Narrabundah Long Stay Caravan Park. The Chief Minister has actually said that the ACT government has welcomed confirmation from the National Capital Authority today that the Narrabundah Long Stay Caravan Park land swap was close to closure, with the NCA board meeting later this month to consider a variation to the national capital plan.
I think there have been some very serious allegations thrown in the way of the NCA, ones that they have now refuted as late as an hour ago on ABC radio. I think the Chief Minister has taken on board some email dialogue from the department. I do not know who has given the Chief Minister this advice but I can only say he has been poorly advised or, worse still, he is making mischief.
Both houses of parliament clearly need to sign off on any changes to the national capital plan. He knows that. He is well aware of that. If he isn't, how little does our Chief Minister know about the process and the Westminster system? No formal submissions have been received from ACTPLA as yet and I just wonder what the Chief Minister is up to in regard to the Narrabundah land swap.
As I said when I rose to speak, the Chief Minister owes the people of Canberra an apology. He must stop playing games with the lives of the residents at the Narrabundah Long Stay Caravan Park. I expect to see tomorrow a statement by the Chief Minister if he is still in the building and listening. He needs to put this right immediately. He needs to stop slurring the reputation of the National Capital Authority in this matter. How can they act when the Chief Minister has not been in contact with them since 22 December last year? His actions are unconscionable and I think he really needs to put the record straight.
Charter of financial integrity
MR MULCAHY (Molonglo) (9.03): I want to set the record straight and I seek leave to table a document which is on the ALP website.
MR MULCAHY: I table the following document:
Financial integrity—Labor: a charter of financial integrity!—ACT Labor—Fact Sheet 10.
Mr Speaker, about 6 o'clock tonight the Chief Minister put out a statement that said, "Three little words go missing from Mulcahy quote."And in an extraordinarily creative piece of prose he has claimed that I deleted the words "in some form"from

1 Kastély Street, Keszthely
The Festetics Mansion in Keszthely is Hungary’s most visited manor house. Today, it operates as a museum under the name of Helikon Kastélymúzeum (Helikon Mansion Museum). It has six permanent exhibitions in five buildings.
The Festetics Family owned the castle, which was continuously built since the middle of the 18th century, for 200 years. The Festetics Family was one of Hungary's most important noble families. Its members played an important role in the country's political, economic, scientific and cultural life.
Kristóf Festetics obtained the property in Keszthely; he bought the estates of Keszthely in 1739. His son, Pál III was Maria Theresa’s legal and financial adviser. He received the title of count in 1772. György Festetics I belonged to the family’s next generation. He was one of the most prominent members of the family; he founded the Georgikon and the Helikon Celebrations. His son, László, followed his example, however, with less success. Tasziló Festetics I and György Festetics II, the sons of László, settled the financial situation of the Festetics Family. György II was a minister in the Andrássy Government. His son, Tasziló II received the title of Hungarian duke in 1911. The son of Tasziló II, György III worked in the field of diplomacy in the first decades of the 20th century. György IV, who belonged to the last generation of the Festetics Family, left Hungary with his mother, Maria Haugwitz, in 1944, at the age of four.
Kristóf Festetics initiated the construction of the Festetics Mansion in 1745. The middle, eastern wing of the current building dates back to the first construction period (1745-1750). The Baroque-style two-storeyed mansion had 34 rooms according to the inventory of the age. Already during the life of Kristóf and his son, Pál Festetics (III), several enlargement plans were made, but these were not realized. Finally, the son of Pál, György Festetics (I) started the reconstruction of the mansion in 1792. According to the plans, the mansion would have been transformed into a U-shaped building with two wings, extending backwards, but only the southern library wing was built in a Neo-classical, late Baroque (Copf) style. The interior works lasted until 1804.
Tasziló Festetics (II) had the next significant reconstruction and extension made between 1883 and 1887 in Historicist (Neo-Baroque and Neo-Rococo) style. He had the middle, eastern wing extended and the northern wing built. The tower was also built that time. The whole building was covered with a garret roof, and central heating and water pipes were installed. The mansion gained its present form that time by the reconstruction of the façades and interior spaces, and especially the staircases.
The park of the mansion is a conservation area. In the park, there are a palm house and the former carriage house, where the coach exhibition can be seen today, and opposite the rear exit of the park, there is another building belonging to the mansion museum where the hunting and historic model railway exhibitions are displayed. Near the mansion, in the Kastély Street, stands the Amazon House Visitor Centre.
The exhibition on the aristocratic way of life and the Helikon Library can be viewed in the mansion. The original or exactly reconstructed interior rooms of the interior design exhibition show the life of aristocrats in the 18th-19th century. The greatest value of the mansion is Hungary's only intact private library with more than 80,000 volumes.
The event centre in the northern wing of the mansion is suitable for organising representative events. The ballrooms provide a perfect venue for weddings, conferences, banquets, and receptions.
The main material of the carriage exhibition are the collection of more than fifty coaches, carriages and riding sleighs from the 18th-19th centuries related to the life of aristocrats, and a collection of other relics related to horseback riding, and artworks.
The hunting exhibition displays the trophies of wild animal species hunted on five continents. Visitors can get acquainted with the majority of the animals by walking at their “natural habitats”. The experience is complemented by ethnographic and art collections related to the subject.
The historic model railway exhibition is one of the largest in Europe. The giant models illustrating the railways of 19th-21st century Hungary, Austria and Germany are the exact replicas of the original station buildings, railway tracks, locomotives and trains.
The exhibition "Aristocratic travels, travel adventures" opened at the Amazon House Visitor Centre presents the travel culture and the practice of travelling of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries through demonstration materials.
The palm house, built in the 1880s, and its exotic plants preserve the traditions of orangeries and tropical greenhouses that were part of the aristocratic lifestyle. A rock garden, an aquarium, a pond and a bird park surround the palm house building.
Following the recent reconstruction of the mansion park, now it can provide the same scenery that was designed by Henry Ernest Milner, an English garden planner in the 1880s, with the refurbished pond, the Lion Head Water Fountain, the fountains, and the Duchess’s French formal garden.

Lisa Fischer has led a storied career. The Brooklyn vocalist has released just one solo album, 1991’s So Intense, which contains the premiere R&B cut, ‘How Can I Ease the Pain’. However, Fischer’s made her mark onstage with other artists.
She performed backing vocals for The Rolling Stones from the late ‘80s until 2015 and has also worked with Luther Vandross, Nine Inch Nails, Tina Turner, Chris Botti and Sting.
Fischer will be the star of the show when she returns to Australia in June. Since 2014 she has been working alongside jazz fusion trio Grand Baton, led by Guadeloupian guitarist JC Maillard.
“I was working on the film 20 Feet from Stardom and we started doing these interviews and people would ask me if I had a band. I’d go, ‘no’, because I was still touring with the Stones at the time. So I made the decision to reach out to Bobby McFerrin’s manager, Linda Goldstein. I’ve known her for a few years and she found the perfect musical director for me, JC Maillard, who started the concept of Grand Baton,” Fischer says.
Fischer and Grand Baton take on a variety of well-known songs from the likes of Led Zeppelin, The Police, Robert Palmer, Amy Grant, and of course, The Rolling Stones. They’re not stuck on a set repertoire, though.
“We do all kinds of stuff. We do blues, we do classical, we do world music, we do trance music, we do psychedelic rock stuff. Just all kinds of stuff mish-mashed together,” Fischer says.
“I made a list of the kinds of music and songs that I liked and I realised I like a lot of different stuff. I didn’t want to feel chained to any particular genre. So we just do a fusion of many things according to the mood, according to the song, according to the message and just how we want to paint it. It gives us a real lovely sense of freedom.”
Fischer’s visit to the Melbourne Recital Centre won’t be a conventional covers show, by any means. Inspired by jazz vocalists re-interpreting the standards, Fischer employs an intuitive approach. Grand Baton are more than up to the task.
“What really attracted me to JC and the gentlemen that he’s chosen to be the band is the way they listen and their sense of freedom when they’re creating in a live setting,” she says. “It’s so exciting to me because I never know what they’re going to do. But there’s a certain kind of listening that has to happen in order for it to work as a group.
“I’ve sat within myself for so long now, being a sponge around different energy, different music, that it’s nice to be able to just toss the paint up there and see what pictures come.”
Fischer performed with The Rolling Stones for close to 30 years, taking a central role on songs like ‘Monkey Man’ and ‘Gimme Shelter’. The assignment sent her around the globe numerous times and onto many of the world’s most revered concert stages. Her solo shows, by contrast, are more intimate affairs.
“I look at groups of people, no matter the size, as energy. So the larger the group, the bigger the wave of energy. It’s still water. The Stones would do an arena, a stadium, a club date. Luckily I’ve had the experience of being in those different waters with them.
“The motion of the waves of energy that come and flow have a different rhythm. So for me, that’s the only difference, but as far as what you have to give it’s still all the same. You still have to put out that same energy, but the time exchange between the band and the audience is different.”
Lisa Fischer performs at the Melbourne Recital Centre on Wednesday June 5 as part of the Melbourne International Jazz Festival, taking place from Friday May 31 to Sunday June 9. Head to the festival website for info and tickets.


The vulnerable Democratic House representative, Chris Pappas of New Hampshire, is not happy with President Biden’s announcement on student loan forgiveness. And he isn’t alone. The opposition to Biden’s plan is voiced by a long list of Democrats who are objecting to Biden’s massive $300 billion student debt distribution. Some representatives went as far as to label the plan to forgive student loans – despite the nation’s already rising debt – as a left-wing dream.
Pappas expressed his disappointment in Biden’s plans to use $300 billion in taxpayer dollars to repay student loan debt. In his opinion, any debt relief should be handled by Congress, not by the president. And it should not increase the budget deficit, per Pappas. “We all know the cost of higher education is crushing families, and that’s why I’ve supported expanding Pell Grants, affordable community college, and loan forgiveness for those entering vital professions like nursing,” Pappas declared in a statement. “But this announcement by President Biden is no way to make policy and sidesteps Congress and our oversight and fiscal responsibilities.”
“The President’s plan also doesn’t address the underlying issue of the affordability of higher education, and it is clear that the high cost continues to limit opportunities available to students. Any plan to address student debt should go through the legislative process, and it should be more targeted and paid for so it doesn’t add to the deficit,” Pappas continued, said a report on Fox News.
In a statement to Fox News Digital, Representative Kim Schrier, D-Washington, also criticized Biden’s approach to debt relief. Schrier argues that any form of relief should be targeted. “I agree that something needs to be done to make college a more affordable option for students and make sure they aren’t burdened by debt for decades. However, this is not how I would have done it,” she stated.
“I would have liked to see a more targeted approach and a way to pay for this plan. We can use debt forgiveness strategically to channel students into careers where we need help desperately, like mental health professionals, educators and nurses,” Schrier added. Rep. Tom Malinowski, D-N.J. is among other vulnerable House Democrats who are opposing the plan. Malinowski said in a tweet that he “never supported forgiving student debt with taxpayer funds.”
Aside from the large number of elected officials who have spoken out against Biden’s plan, two prominent former Democratic administration officials have voiced their concerns – Clinton administration Treasury Secretary Larry Summers and Obama administration economist Jason Furman.
Biden’s program is aimed to forgive up to $10,000 in federal student loans for borrowers making less than $125,000 a year and up to $20,000 for Pell Grant recipients while extending the federal student loan pause until the end of the year. The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget stated that Biden’s plan would cost taxpayers approximately $500 billion over ten years, which is $200 billion more than some previous estimates. According to the Treasury Department, the national debt currently stands at $30.7 trillion.

The European Commission is soon to decide on Hungarian draft legislation that would require food companies to disclose on packaging discrepancies between identically branded products on various national markets, daily Magyar Idők said on Tuesday.
“We hope Brussels will support the Hungarian proposal to disclose quality discrepancies,” Róbert Zsigó, state secretary in charge of supermarket oversight, told the paper.
The farm ministry drafted the legislation after probes in Hungary and neighbouring countries showed discrepancies in the quality of identically branded food products sold in eastern and in western Europe.
Hungary submitted the draft legislation to Brussels in May.
As we wrote before, discrepancies have been revealed in about a third of 39 identically labelled food products sold in Hungary and in western Europe in the latest quality tests ordered by Farm Minister Sándor Fazekas.
