Care for Dogs
Care for Dogs believe that sterilisation is the right approach to reducing the number of homeless puppies and kittens and it remains our main priority.
Please help us break the cycle of unwanted pets! Please spay and neuter your animals. Spaying and neutering is the most important thing you can do to help control pet overpopulation and Animal Abuse.
"...Saving just one pet won't change the world ...but, surely, the world will change for that one pet..."
Our focus is local. We want to be a part of the solution. We want to provide humane education to the children of Chiang Mai in order to instill a respect and understanding for dogs and consequently work to solve the problem of pet overpopulation on our streets.
Our program aims to solve this problem through understanding and respect. Our lessons will help children become familiar with a dog’s physical appearance, to learn his body language to prevent bites, and to identify his needs. It will also bring to light the consequences of neglect and abuse and allow the children to take action, while promoting English speaking skills.
Maybe it’s their unconditional love they give towards us human beings, their joy when they see us, their wagging tails, their eyes that can be full of happiness, sadness, pain, or fear.
When I see a street dog alone, bleeding and emaciated in the middle of a bustling crowd not hated, not loved, not seen, but treated with indifference, this is what I can no longer turn away from." Joy

This season, a flu vaccine is more important than ever to reduce the risk of flu for yourself, your family and your community. Getting your flu shot can also reduce the burden of flu illness on the healthcare system and save medical resources to care for people with COVID-19. So remember, Mask Up: cover your nose and mouth with a mask when out in public. Lather Up: wash your hands frequently with soap and warm water and don’t forget, Sleeve Up! Roll up your sleeve to get a flu shot.
Mecklenburg County Public Health is holding a series of drive-thru flu shot clinics. The first Flu Fighter Friday Clinic is Friday, Oct. 23, 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. There is no out-of-pocket cost and insurance is not required. But, if you have insurance, please bring your card. Standard dose flu shots only are available at drive-thru clinics

The December 12th 2009 march of the Peoples in Copenhagen united from 30,000 (low government estimate) to 100,000 (high participants estimate) people from all over the world.
See tr.im/Hw9Z
Their messages:
"We want global cooperation between people. We can do it together. Even 100 persons collaborating in 10,000 cities means 1,000,000 people..."
"We want an ambitious, fair and binding legal Treaty."
"I want the governments to act more strongly to stop climate change."
"From Malawi, to the developed countries: give us a fair deal so we can reduce emissions and everyone is less affected by climate change"
"From Brussels: I'm here to protect the life, because we have reached a certain point that we have to act NOW. If I don't for myself, I have to do it for my children, I really hope that this is going to be the real deal, and that we will end this week by significant change. "
"I hope that we will fix some limits that will be reasonable not only for business, but for the Earth. I don't care about business, I care about life, and we are playing a game that we will not survive for a long time."
"I'm here for the children, all the children of the world; because we have to change the direction now, and share this beautiful world we have, we live on, together now. We have to change, to start to live sustainably, and to think always about the children, because they have the answer for us, how we should live our lives."
"I would like to see for the end of the deliberations of COP15 that everybody would take responsibility for their country, to start to only use sustainable energy, to stop the cars, to just live so we can stay on this earth for a long long, much longer time than it looks like now."
"I'm wearing a survival ball, designed to withstand any climate catastrophy, nuclear blast, biological warfare, pretty much anything... I recommend that everybody get one soon, before the real climate crisis happens. I would like to see substantial climate legislation passed, that really reduces our carbon emissions, and protects the ecology."
"A trade union organizer: Traditionally, from the Trade Unions, we are organizers to the big demonstrations. We've been looking forward to a peaceful demonstration. It seems to be rather big, the last numbers I heard was over 100,000. That's very big in Denmark, and in Copenhagen. We have the same interest in climate change as anyone else. We have to do something about it, we have to put pressure on the politicians, so they start acting, stop thinking in profit but act in favor of the climate. They should tighten up, they have to go further than what I've heard today. Twenty to thirty percent cuts in CO2 is not enough!"
"Paramedics: in a big demonstration, ambulance cannot get in, because of violence or police barricades. If people get injured, or get ill, or have any problem right in the streets, then there is an urgent need of paramedics. I hope we don't have much to do. I want to bring the message to the world: it was said that we would be 100,000 people. I didn't count them, I don't know if this is true. But there are a lot of people, it's a strong voice!"
"Germany: I'm here for the global civil movement for radical system change, not climate change. I don't expect anything from the negotiations of the so-called political leaders. I think that we the people all around the world have to take this in our hands, to save the climate and to fight for climate justice, and not to put our hopes on false economical solutions and so-called political leaders who don't do anything. So I'm looking for, after the negotiations, for networking with people all around the world, for strengthening the global movement for climate justice."
"Cape Town: We're fighting against Free Trade. I'm with a group that came from Geneva to Copenhagen by the Climate Justice caravan. What we expect from these negotiations is for the leaders to live up to justice, and to pay for the years of ecological debt that's been caused by the capitalist system; and we expect the northern governments to ... finances and technology to the South without conditions. We condemn the market-based mechanisms that have been promoted in these negotiations. We want a new system, a new Treaty, based on reparations for the people of the South. For 400 years of capitalism and colonialism and exploitation from Europe, 10 billion dollars is really nothing. And if they are pledging, I certainly hope they`re pledging to the UN Adaptation Fund, and not to the World Bank. I think that hundreds of billions are required for reparations, and that governments from the South need to be vigilent, because they have been impacted drastically, people are poor, people are jobless, because of the system; so we need hundreds of billions, that our governemnts need, to make sure that the North pays its ecological debt. Thank you"
"Holland: I'm here to demonstrate because I don't believe that the government is coming up with a good climate solution for the climate problem. They put too much importance on economics. I don't think that the priority is where it should be."
"Holland: I'm here to demonstrate because I truly believe in a greener future, and I'm worried that it's not going to happen with our current governments. So I'm hoping to motivate them with my presence here."
"Holland: I see a culture which is really about the ego, it's really distance from each other, we have to come back to each other, and back to the world."

2012 National Safety Month
During the past several years, our Army has reduced preventable accidents to near peacetime levels. This amazing success has been achieved despite the high operations tempo of our continuing missions overseas, proving once again the diligence and dedication of American Soldiers. We commend you for your hard work in making safety a top priority, both on and off duty.
While risk management deserves our attention and focus 24/7, our Army is placing special emphasis on safety this summer by observing National Safety Month in June.
This commemoration provides a wonderful opportunity for you to evaluate your safety programs and make adjustments as needed for the months ahead. One of four topic areas will be highlighted each week during the month — Civilian safety, ground safety, aviation safety and driving safety. The U.S. Army Combat Readiness/Safety Center will release programs and tools targeted to each of these areas through the end of June, so visit their website at safety.army.mil often for products and tools that will help you keep your Soldiers and Civilian employees safe.
Looking past June, the fourth quarter (July-September) is historically the deadliest time of the fiscal year for our Soldiers off duty. Privately owned vehicle and privately owned motorcycle accidents dominate fatality reports, but drowning and other water-related deaths have been on the rise during recent years. Indiscipline is cited as a root cause in most of these losses, which only compounds the tragedy. Discipline and standards are the essence of what it means to wear our uniform, and preventable deaths due to reckless behavior hit our units, our Families and our surviving Soldiers extremely hard. Engagement between Leaders and subordinates and Soldiers and their peers is the key to addressing indiscipline and saving lives.
Thank you for your support of National Safety Month and all you do to keep our Army safe. Risk is a deadly problem, but the smart decisions we make every day will have a lasting impact on each other and our Army now and into the future.
ARMY SAFE IS ARMY STRONG!

Day 289 (289/365):
I was coming from a sunset shoot and was on my way back to Malaybalay when a fire broke out at the junction of Aglayan, Bukidnon Road.
The fire damaged a few establishments in the area and leaving some families homeless..
This happened about a month ago..

IC 443 (also known as the Jellyfish Nebula and Sharpless 248 (Sh2-248)) is a Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) in the constellation Gemini. On the plan of the sky, it is located near the star Eta Geminorum. Its distance is roughly 5,000 light years (~5×1016 km) from Earth.
IC 443 is thought to be the remains of a supernova that occurred 3,000 - 30,000 years ago. The same supernova event likely created the neutron star CXOU J061705.3+222127, the collapsed remnant of the stellar core. IC 443 is one of the best-studied cases of supernova remnants interacting with surrounding molecular clouds.
There's no real rule for what an old dam was made of in my area, but I've found a general time frame applies. For most of the 1800s, expect dry-stacked stones only, no mortar in sight. This dam isn't on the highly-detailed 1876 map of Annapolis County, and they certainly wouldn't have missed something this size. At the turn of the 20th century, you start seeing examples like this, with concrete used to reduce the mass of a structure still mostly made of stone. By the 1930s, virtually everything was solid concrete, top to bottom. After the Second World War, the problem dams were solving became the sole responsibility of the electric company. After decades of slow expansion, even the most rural areas were finally getting electrified. Private water power is what they were built for, whether to run a lumber, grist, or carding mill – or harvest ice before the advent of modern refrigeration. There was such a boom in dam construction that I can hardly hike a stream of any size without seeing a sign of one. Sometimes, it's just a half-crumbled wall on each bank, the middle section long-collapsed. Now and then, I find an example with the center span intact. This has taken a battering through the years, its former purpose long since lost. But I figure it can stand a century still.

The Big Five. Lions (Leões). Kruger Park. South Africa. Dec/2018
The lion (Panthera leo) is a species in the family Felidae; it is a muscular, deep-chested cat with a short, rounded head, a reduced neck and round ears, and a hairy tuft at the end of its tail. The lion is sexually dimorphic; males are larger than females with a typical weight range of 150 to 250 kg (330 to 550 lb) for the former and 120 to 182 kg (265 to 400 lb) for the latter. Male lions have a prominent mane, which is the most recognisable feature of the species. A lion pride consists of a few adult males, related females and cubs. Groups of female lions typically hunt together, preying mostly on large ungulates. The species is an apex and keystone predator, although they scavenge when opportunities occur. Some lions have been known to hunt humans, although the species typically does not.
Typically, the lion inhabits grasslands and savannas but is absent in dense forests. It is usually more diurnal than other big cats, but when persecuted it adapts to being active at night and at twilight. In the Pleistocene, the lion ranged throughout Eurasia, Africa and the Americas from the Yukon to Peru but today it has been reduced to fragmented populations in Sub-Saharan Africa and one critically endangered population in western India
Kruger National Park is one of the largest game reserves in Africa. It covers an area of around 20,000 square kilometres in the provinces of Limpopo and Mpumalanga in northeastern South Africa, and extends 360 kilometres (220 mi) from north to south and 65 kilometres (40 mi) from east to west.

O leão [feminino: leoa] (nome científico: Panthera leo) é uma espécie de mamífero carnívoro do gênero Panthera e da família Felidae. A espécie é atualmente encontrada na África subsaariana e na Ásia, com uma única população remanescente em perigo, no Parque Nacional da Floresta de Gir, Gujarat, Índia. Foi extinto na África do Norte e no Sudoeste Asiático em tempos históricos, e até o Pleistoceno Superior, há cerca de 10 000 anos, era o mais difundido grande mamífero terrestre depois dos humanos, sendo encontrado na maior parte da África, em muito da Eurásia, da Europa Ocidental à Índia, e na América, do Yukon ao México. É uma dos quatro grandes felinos, com alguns machos excedendo 250 quilogramas em peso, sendo o segundo maior felino recente depois do tigre.
A pelagem é unicolor de coloração castanha, e os machos apresentam uma juba característica. Uma das características mais marcantes da espécie é a presença de um tufo de pelos pretos na cauda, que também possui uma espora. Habita preferencialmente as savanas e pastagens abertas, mas pode ser encontrado em regiões mais arbustivas. É um animal sociável que vive em grupos que consiste das leoas e suas crias, o macho dominante e alguns machos jovens que ainda não alcançaram a maturidade sexual. A dieta consiste principalmente de grandes ungulados e possuem hábitos noturnos e crepusculares, descansando e dormindo na maior parte do dia. Leões vivem por volta de 10-14 anos na natureza, enquanto em cativeiro eles podem viver por até 30 anos.
O Parque Nacional Kruger é a maior área protegida de fauna bravia da África do Sul, cobrindo cerca de 20 000 km2. Está localizado no nordeste do país, nas províncias de Mpumalanga e Limpopo e tem uma extensão de cerca de 360 km de norte a sul e 65 km de leste a oeste.
Os parques nacionais africanos, nas regiões da savana africana são importantes pelo turismo com safári de observação e fotográfico.
O seu nome foi dado em homenagem a Stephanus Johannes Paul Kruger, último presidente da República Sul-Africana bôere. Foi criado em 31 de Maio de 1926

Practical knowledge and theory knowledge go hand in hand in giving students a clear understanding of any topic. Topics, like increasing and reducing friction for students of CBSE, need theoretical as well as practical knowledge. With the Extramarks app, students can get access to video lessons for many such topics and learn both the practical and the theoretical aspects of such topics.

I had another one of those aha!! moments that is almost embarrasing because it was so long coming. As I've written recently I'm not using air conditioning as a part of my effort to reduce my personal impact on the climate. I'm also living in a cabin which is not completely finished on the inside. The ceiling is finished and well insulated with a ceiling fan installed. I've still got two walls that need the electrical wiring finished, insulation on two walls still to be installed and then pine bead board for all of the inside walls.
Much of my cabin is shaded at various times of day but it does get hit with a good bit of direct sun. About half of the east facing side gets full sun from about 9am to noon. I made it a point to insulate about half of this wall a few weeks back but a good bit of heat still makes it through. I would have done the whole wall but I have a good bit of temporary shelving nailed up to the other half and it is fully stocked with food so I stopped at the half way point.
Three weeks ago Greg brought down a truck load of used 2x4, 2x6, and 2x8 wood to be re-used for a variety of future projects. We stacked it into a neat pile where it has been sitting ever since. Meanwhile I've been working, observing and thinking about the design elements of the site and future projects. I decided very early on that I'd be putting a series of eight or so raised rain collection barrels along the back/east side of the cabin and that I'd put a lattice or similar structure on it for some sort of perennial fruit vine or an annual bean/squash vine to provide food and shade. I may also plant a couple fruit trees back there. But those projects won't be completed until early spring of next year.
Now, for that aha! moment. It's hot and humid outside. I'm hot. My dog is hot. My unfinished walls are getting direct sunlight and heating up outside and inside. Why not lean all those neatly stacked boards up against the east side of my cabin? So simple and obvious!! In ten minutes I've provided a solid wall of deep shade that should easily give me another hour or two of inside coolness. I'll be doing the same thing along the south side of the cabin which gets direct sun from about 3pm to 5pm.
Greg will be back down around the third weekend of August and we'll get the inside walls finished off but I'll be leaving those boards up until they no longer get the direct sun or until outside temperatures cool down, probably the middle of September.
It always amazes me how many people do not shade their houses with trees, bushes or vines. I suppose that the combination of cheap energy, air conditioning and fairly well insulated homes combined make it easy for folks to ignore or not realize just how much direct sunlight on exterior walls can heat a home. As energy becomes increasingly expensive and eventually as shortages occur I expect these details will become more important to more people.

How To Reduce Blood Glucose Levels
The United States is proud to have joined the Marrakesh Treaty, a landmark agreement that will help reduce the global shortage of print materials in accessible formats such as Braille for blind, visually impaired, and print disabled persons.
International diplomats, members of civil society, and leading advocates for the blind and visually impaired came together for a celebration of U.S. ratification last night at the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) on the eve of the opening of the 38th Session of the WIPO Standing Committee on Copyright and Related Rights. WIPO Director General Francis Gurry welcomed guests and noted the significance of the U.S. ratification. The United States already houses the world’s largest repository of accessible English-language material. U.S. Chargé d’affaires Mark Cassayre highlighted that U.S. ratification underscores the importance the United States attaches to this Treaty, and the importance the United States places on accessibility and inclusion.
Shira Perlmutter, Chief Policy Officer and Director of International Affairs for the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, and one of the key negotiators of the Treaty, concluded, “The magic of the Marrakesh Treaty is to expand access to the genius of humankind for the blind and print-disabled around the world. It is an accomplishment that we are all proud to celebrate tonight.”
U.S. President Donald J. Trump signed the Marrakesh Treaty ratification document in late January, and the Treaty is set to enter force in the United States in early May. When the Treaty takes effect in the United States, some 550,000 accessible texts will become immediately available to visually impaired persons living in Marrakesh Treaty-adherent countries, according to figures from the U.S.-based National Federation for the Blind. To date, 54 countries have joined the Treaty.
