  Changes happen as pets age, similar to the changes seen as people age. Sight
and hearing may be diminished, pets may sleep more, and so on. These are
expected changes. However, people often miss potentially serious signs of illness in their
pets by writing off symptoms as "just old age" when a veterinary exam is in order.

  http://slclk.about.com/?zi=1/aB1
   In birds, the term "Color Mutation" refers to a bird whose feathers exhibit
a different color than you would normally find in the wild.
  The code for feathers of a certain color is carried on a bird's genes.
Therefore, it is possible to breed birds with genetic codes for different colors
together, creating new and different color mutations.
  Breeding for color mutations has become especially popular in the bird trade
as of late, with breeders of many species striving to create the perfect
bird in an array of beautiful and sometimes unusual colors.

The Associated Press: Seeking to Save Shelter Dogs From Death
http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5jKSSNHmuDVFEgm_llInvJ3qBx-9QD8S8NF400
Sandy, a golden female Jindo in New York, also has just two days left. Kate
Hepburn, a tan female boxer in California, has 18 days to live.
On Saturday, these were some of the dogs in shelters across the country
slated for death — their fate posted on a Web site that aims to save their lives
  by offering them for adoption. Each is tagged with a death date set by a shelter — and
a countdown clock  showing the days, or hours, until the animal is destroyed.
Dogsindanger.com works with more than 120 shelters nationwide that destroy
dogs. How much time the dogs get before death varies from state to state. In New
York City, a stray dog must be kept a minimum of three days, while a shelter has 
the legal right to immediately destroy an animal that is abandoned there by its  owner.
About 4 million dogs are put to death each year in the
oUnited States, by injection or gas.

HANDY  HINTS
If you have squeaky floors that are just driving you nutty    
try sprinkling baby powder over the floors and sweep it back    
and forth working it into the cracks.   

If you have a knot in a necklace place it on a plate and sprinkle    
some powder over it. Use two needles to work out the knot. The    
powder works as a lubricant.

Next time you have a grease stain on your pants or shirt sprinkle    
baby powder over the stain. Let it absorb for a couple of minutes    
and brush it off. The powder will keep the stain from setting    
into the fabric.

I had a dream the other night. I was in the old West riding in a
stagecoach. Suddenly, a man riding a horse pulls up to the left
side of the stagecoach, and a riderless horse pulls up on the
right. The man leans down, pulls open the door, and jumps off his
horse into the stagecoach. Then he opens the door on the other
side and jumps onto the other horse. Just before he rode off, I
yelled out, "What was all that about?" He replied, "Nothing. It's

Don't Dig Too Deep...
Planting a tree this fall?  Great idea!  Just make sure you do it right.  The planting
depth of a new tree is extremely important and often done improperly. Trees that
are planted too deep may not grow as fast or be as healthy as those planted properly.

Here's what to do. Dig a hole twice as wide and slightly shallower than the root ball.
Roughen the sides and bottom of the hole with a pick or shovel so that roots can
penetrate the soil. The root collar (where the trunk and roots meet) should be at least
even with, and as much as an inch and a half higher than, the final grade.


  Butterfly Gardens
    Plant your garden in full sun.  
  Plants, especially flowering plants, need sun to make food for themselves, and nectar for
butterflies.  Butterflies also need sun to warm their bodies for flight.  
 
  Plant butterfly-attracting flowers Butterflies are attracted to flowers with strong scents  
  and bright colors, where they drink sweet, energy-rich nectar. Select plants that are native to
your area, and they will attract local butterflies.  
 
  Include host plants in your garden. Butterflies lay their eggs on host plants that the  
  emerging caterpillars will eat. The sight of a butterfly emerging from a chrysalis will
more than make up for the chewed leaves.  
 
  Use colorful plants  
  Butterflies see more colors than humans do. They seem to prefer red, orange, yellow, purple,
and dark pink. A large, colorful garden is easy for butterflies to find,  
  and encourages them to stay longer.  
 
  Don't use chemical pesticides  
  Pesticides kill butterflies, caterpillars, and other useful insects. Try these methods
instead: Plant marigolds, petunias, mint, and other herbs that naturally repel pests.    
Encourage ladybugs and dragonflies to dine in your garden.  
  Wash pests away with insecticidal soap.

Bluetooth
David - worldstart.com


What is it?

   That's what your dentures get after eating blueberry pie, but you may hear about
mobile phones and other devices having "Bluetooth Technology". Basically, it's a
short-range wireless technology that simplifies communication between internet
devices like mobile phones, PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants) and computers.
Bluetooth's has a range of about 30 feet and allows
you to do away with messy cables.

  
The Bluetooth Special Interest Group, a cabal of over 3000 manufacturers, oversees
the standards and security of the technology. It gets its unusual name in honor of
Harald Bluetooth, king of Denmark in the mid-tenth century for no other reason than
to recognize the contribution of Baltic countries (Denmark, Sweden,
Norway, and Finland) to the communications industry.

  
If you look around you'll find a ton of devices that use Bluetooth. Everything from
wireless printers, wireless keyboards, even home appliances (I still don't know
why my computer and washing machine need to communicate).

  
Bluetooth enabled mobile phones have recently been under attack by hackers
who gain access to information being stored on the phone. This is often called bluesnarfing
or bluebugging. In order to carry out a bluejacking, the sending and receiving devices
must be within 10 meters of one another. If you use enabled devices, the Official
Bluetooth website has a page explaining how to protect yourself—it's worth reading...

   http://www.bluetooth.com/protect.asp

  
I hope this demystifies this new technology so when you are out shopping for a
mobile phone, PDA, laptop, or other device you'll be
aware of what Bluetooth can do.

Randy was in the hospital for tests. At 11:00 AM, they

again tried to serve him some soup, which he refused.  

Again, at 5:00 PM and 7:00 PM, they tried, and both times  
Randy turned  down the soup, so they gave up. In preparation  
for the next day's tests, they entered his room at 3:00 AM,

When Randy got home from the hospital after the tests, he

As a young minister, I was asked by a funeral director to hold a
grave-side service for a homeless man, with no family or friends.  The funeral
was to be held at a cemetery way back in the country, and this man
would be the first to be laid to rest there.

As I was not familiar with the backwoods area, I became lost; and
being a typical man did not stop for directions.  I finally arrived an
hour late.

I saw the backhoe and the crew, who was eating lunch, But the hearse
was nowhere in sight.  I apologized to the workers for my tardiness, and
stepped to the side of the open grave, where I saw the vault lid
already in place.

  I assured the workers I would not hold them up for long, but this was the
proper thing to do.  The workers gathered around, still eating their lunch.
I poured out my heart and soul.

As I preached the workers began to say 'Amen,' 'Praise the Lord,' and
'Glory'!  I preached, and I preached, like I'd never preached
before: from Genesis all the way to Revelation.

I closed the lengthy service with a prayer and walked to my car.

As I was opening the door and taking off my coat, I overheard one of
  the workers saying to another, 'I ain't never seen anything like that
before and I've been putting in septic tanks for twenty years.'

"It's summer on Nantucket, and as the season begins, three women arrive at the

children, unwieldy straw hats, and some obvious  emotional issues, the
women--two sisters and one friend--make their way to the  sisters' tiny cottage,
  inherited from an aunt. They're all trying to escape from  something: Melanie, after
seven failed in-vitro attempts, discovered her  husband's infidelity and then her own pregnancy;
  Brenda embarked on a passionate  affair with an older student that got her fired from her
  prestigious job as a  professor in New York; and her sister Vickie, mother to two small boys,
  has been  diagnosed with cancer. Soon Josh is part of the chaotic household, acting as
  babysitter, confidant, and, eventually, something more, while the women
  confront  their pasts and map out their futures"

    Click here: Grilling Basics: The place to start when you are just starting out on the grill
   http://slclk.about.com/?zi=1/abf
    Grilling like any other kind of cooking is an art. Remember this, don't let
  anyone put down your grilling unless they can do a better job. The difference
  between grilling and cooking on the stove or in the oven is that grilling is a combination
  of both. You have direct heat from the gas burners or the charcoal and you have
  indirect heat that fills the grill when the lid is down. Also, grills have more heat and
less control. With your oven you can set the temperature precisely. With a grill
you turn on or light the fire and the heat just keeps rising. An average gas grill can reach
500 degrees in a matter of minutes. This is why you can't throw the food on the grill
  and watch TV until the timer goes off. You must remain ever vigilant. Vigilance is the key.

   Feta is served as an appetizer, side dish, and as an ingredient in salads, filled pies,

  and fruit salads, filled pies, as a topping for or ingredient in cooked rice and
  tomato-based pastas, as a filling for omelets, in sandwiches, and elsewhere.

Two hunters got  a pilot to fly them into the far north for elk hunting. They were quite 
successful in their venture and bagged six big bucks. The pilot came back, as arranged, to pick them up.

They started loading their gear into the plane, including the six elk. But the pilot
objected and said, "The plane can only take four of your elk; you will have to leave two behind."

They argued with him; the year before they had shot six and the pilot had allowed them to put
  all aboard. The plane was the same model and capacity. Reluctantly, the pilot 
finally permitted them to put all six aboard. But when they attempted to take
off and leave the valley, the little plane could not make it and they crashed into the wilderness.

Climbing out of  the wreckage, one hunter said to the other, "Do you know where we are?"
"I think so,"  replied the other hunter. "I think this is about the same place where we
  crashed last year."

Ol' Fred had been a faithful Christian and was in the
hospital, near death. The family called their preacher
to stand with them.

As the preacher stood next to the bed, Fred's condition 
appeared to deteriorate and he motioned frantically for
something to write on.

The pastor lovingly handed him a pen and a piece of
paper, and Fred used his last bit of energy to scribble
a note, then he died.

The preacher thought it best not to look at the note at
that time, so he placed it in his jacket pocket.
At the funeral, as he was finishing the message, he
realized that he was wearing the same jacket that he
was wearing when Fred died.

He said, "You know, Ol'  Fred handed me a note just before he died.
I haven't looked at it, but knowing  Fred, I'm sure there's a word
of inspiration there for us all."

He opened the note, and read, "Hey, you're standing on

WOMAN'S PERFECT BREAKFAST
She's sitting at the table with her gourmet coffee.  Her son is on the cover of 
the Wheaties box. Her daughter is on the cover of Business Week. Her boyfriend
  is on the cover of Playgirl. And her husband is on the back of the milk carton.

WOMAN'S  REVENGE
"Cash, cheque or charge?" I asked, after folding items the woman wished to purchase. 
As she fumbled for her wallet I noticed a remote control for a television 
set in her purse. "So, do you always carry your TV remote?" I asked. "No," she
replied, " but my husband refused to come shopping with me, and I figured this 
was the most evil thing I could do to him legally." 

UNDERSTANDING WOMEN
(A MAN'S PERSPECTIVE)
I know I'm not going to understand women. I'll never understand how you
can take boiling hot wax, pour it onto your upper thigh, rip the hair
out by the root, and still be afraid of a  spider. 

CIGARETTES AND TAMPONS
A man walks into a pharmacy and wanders up and down the aisles.
The sales girl notices him and asks him if she can help him.  He answers that he is
  looking for a box of tampons for his wife. She directs him down the correct
  aisle.  A few minutes later, he deposits a huge bag of cotton balls and a
ball of string on the counter. She says, confused, "Sir, I  thought you
were looking for some tampons for your wife? He answers, " You see, it's like 
this, yesterday,  I sent my wife to the store to get me a carton of cigarettes, and she came back 
with a tin of tobacco and some rolling papers; cause it's sooo-ooo--oo-ooo much cheaper.
So, I figure if I have to roll my own ........ so does she.

WIFE VS HUSBAND 
A  couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word. An
  earlier discussion had led to an argument and neither of them wanted to concede
their position.  As they passed a barnyard of mules, goats, and pigs, the husband
asked sarcastically, "Relatives of yours?" "Yep," the wife replied, "in-laws." 

WORDS
A husband read an article to his wife about how many words women use a day... 
30,000 to a man's 15,000. The wife replied, "The reason has to be because
we have to repeat everything to men...
The husband then turned to his wife  and asked, "What?" 

CREATION
A man said to his wife one day, "I don't know how you can be so
stupid and so beautiful all at the same time." The wife responded, "Allow me to
  explain.  God made me beautiful so you would be attracted to me; God made
me stupid so I would be attracted to you! 

WHO DOES WHAT 
A man and his wife were having an argument about who should brew the coffee each
morning. The wife said, "You should do it, because you get up first,  and
then we don't have to wait as long to get our coffee." The husband said, " You
are in charge of cooking around here and you should do it, because that is your
job, and I can just wait for my coffee."  Wife replies, "No, you should do
it, and besides, it is in the Bible that the man should do the coffee."
Husband replies, "I can't believe that, show me." So she fetched the  Bible,
and opened the New Testament and showed him at the top of several pages, 
that it indeed says.........."HEBREWS" 

THE SILENT TREATMENT
A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving each other
the silent treatment. Suddenly, the man realized that the next day, he would 
need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight.
Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on a piece of paper,
"Please wake me at 5:00 AM." He left it where he knew she would find it. The next morning,
the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00  AM and he had missed his flight. Furious,
he was about to go and see why his wife hadn't wakened him, when he noticed
a piece of paper by the bed. The paper said, "It is 5:00 AM. Wake up."
Men are not equipped for these kinds of contests.

Politically Correct virus: Never calls itself a "virus", but
instead refers to itself as an "electronic microorganism."

Government Economist virus: Nothing works, but all your diagnostic
software says everything is fine.

New World Order virus: Probably harmless, but it makes a lot of
people really mad just thinking about it.

Bureaucrat virus: Divides your hard disk into hundreds of little
units, each of which does practically nothing, but all of which
claim to be the most important part of your computer.

Oedipus Rex virus: Your computer becomes obsessed with marrying
its own motherboard.

Elvis virus: Your computer gets fat, slow and lazy, then self destructs.

There we spotted three raccoons eating out of the cat dish! We
shooed them away and went back to bed.

Later that same week we were driving home from the store and I
noticed three very fat raccoons ambling down the road towards us.

"Look, honey! Do you think those are the same ones we chased
