Cancer Causing Ingredients in Dog Foods
Ethoxyquin
Ethoxyquin is a commonly found preservative in dog food. Dog foods with fish meal will typically contain ethoxyquin , because the U.S. Coast Guard requires that all fish meal transported by boat be treated with ethoxyquin, according to USDA (PDF).
Ethoxyquin was originally developed as a herbicide. So, why are we feeding this to dogs?
Dog food manufacturers use this preservative because it's cheap, but it was linked to a plethora of health problems . Not only can this preservative cause cancer of the liver, spleen, stomach, and skin, but it is also linked to kidney and liver damage, immune deficiency syndrome, and blindness .
All dog food with animal protein meals and animal fats are treated with preservatives. This includes fish meal, chicken meal, beef meal, lamb meal, etc. But some dog food manufacturers use natural preservatives instead of potentially toxic ones.
Legally, dog food manufacturers have no requirement to disclose preservatives added ingredients before they reach the pet food manufacturing plant. This means that if dog food contains ethoxyquin, manufacturers aren’t required to put it on the label.
The more fat that is in a product, the more preservatives the product will need, so look for dog foods with lower fat content. Check with your vet when purchasing a new brand of food, as they will know and often advise against certain cancer causing foods for dogs.

yousuf on Benjamin Franklin’s Birthplace
Sites @ Suffolk University
“Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.”
It is commonly mistaken that Franklin once said, “Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.” However, Franklin apparently did not like beer very much and was much more of a wine lover. The quote originally came from a letter that Franklin wrote to his friend André Morellet while he was in France. He stated,
“Behold the rain which descends from heaven upon our vineyards, and which incorporates itself with the grapes to be changed into wine; a constant proof that God loves us, and loves to see us happy!”
www.ushistory.org/franklin/quotable/singlehtml.htm
Although Franklin does love wine, here, he may be referring to the greatness of God and the wonders of the rain and the vineyards, rather than the greatness of wine. However, either way, the quote never had anything to do with beer.
It is still unknown who started this rumor, or when his words got twisted since it it so hard to trace the roots to a rumor that started so long ago. However, according to beer.about.com/od/historyofbeer, the rumor may have spread so broadly because so many people commonly use the quote, and after hearing it so often, it is automatically is believed to be true. Also, since Franklin is known to have a satirical side to him, it would not be preposterous to believe that he may have said such a thing. However, today the false quote is still printed on-shirts all around the world.

The voice of conscience is so delicate that it is easy to stifle it; but it is also so clear that it is impossible to mistake it.

I wanted to have some time with Photoshop and so I did!
I love this rabbit statue I found at Home Goods a few weeks ago and so turned him into Dr. DoGood.
Also used Topaz software.
Back of the Citrus Sails Quilt for the Inspire Circle of Do.Good.Stitches
I really like how this turned out. I had 3 extra blocks that didn't fit on the front of the quilt so I decided to make them bigger and accent them with the green, yellow and orange fabric. I prefer to do backs of quilts with solids to make it simpler, and this is what I came up with.

Although I personally believe we shall pass this way again, unless we have grown spiritually to that point where we have reached our spiritual goals.....this is still a wonderful way to live our lives. I still have far to go before I am so living in the moment , so focussed on being the person I want to be, that I no longer find myself wishing I hadn't said this, or felt that, or that I had done something I didn't do. But I can still find joy in the little things, and God everywhere. Wishing you well, my friends, and wishing I had time to visit your streams more often than I do.
Biggest thanks to the members of the Joy Circle for the wonderful blocks you sent for this quilt!!

and when the angels come
they'll cut you down the middle
to see if you're still there
to see if you're still there
and underneath your ribs
they'll find the heart shaped locket
an old photograph of you in daddy's arms
and then they'll sew you closed
and give you back to the water
from where we're all born
from where we're all born
and you'll feed the ghosts
and you'll feed the living
you'll be a stranger
and you'll a friend
you'll be the leper
and you'll be the healer
you'll be the hero
and the tragedy
and when they sew you closed
they'll give you back to the water
from where we're all born
from where we're all born
and when they burn your body
all thats left is sand crystals
two tiny handfuls
all the rest is water, water, water
all you need to know
is you were born of water
you are made of water
you are living water, water, water
all you need to know
is you were born of water
you are made of water
you are living water, water, water
all you need to know
is you were born of water
you are made of water
you are living water, water, water
when water comes to life - Cloud Cult
