Matt Wessel, 42, of Winooski was an active duty soldier for four years and in the reserves for six. With the help of Vermont Soldier Angels, and his new companion Zena, 2, a black lab, he is working to overcome a head injury and post traumatic stress disorder. Courtesy Photo Swimming, long walks, and time in the park are a few of Zena's favorite things. She's a 2 year old working black lab who has just been placed with veteran Matt Wessel, 42, of Winooski. Vermont Soldiers' Angels pet coordinator Terri Sabens brought the two together. Zena is the first canine she has placed with a PTSD soldier, Sabens said. "The whole inspiration comes from the book 'Until Tuesday,'" Sabens said. "To see what a dog can do to help a person who will never see the world as they did before going to war is unbelievable. PTSD is an awful state to have to live in for the rest of your life. It was so awesome putting this together." Soldiers' Angels is a volunteer organized nonprofit designed to support the men and women of the United States Army, Marines, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, veterans and their families. Sabens said the Soldiers Angels pet program helps military members with a number of things, including pet care while they are overseas, and now placing service dogs with PTSD veterans. Wessel was an active duty soldier for four years and in the reserves for six. He lives with a head injury and post traumatic stress disorder, he said. He's in school full time taking online college courses through Ashford University working toward a degree in sports management. "I was in need of companionship," Wessel said. "Zena is a medical service dog. We go everywhere together. She is a comfort to me." "To be able to walk your dog, play fetch, teach tricks, and get warm, loving, furry hugs is what they need to make everything seem normal," Sabens said. "It breaks my heart to see anybody who, at one point, wrote a blank check made payable to the United States of America for an amount of up to and including their life suffer in any way." Sam Punchar from Random Rescue donated Zena to Wessel. Bridgette Richie from Golden Hugs Rescue donated $275 worth of training at Show Me the Biscuit for Zena. Fitzgerald Veterinary Hospital has agreed to give Wessel a 20 percent discount for pet care. Zena is intuitive, Wessel said. "She's always by my side. She knows when I need her the most. She's something else. I should have gotten a dog a long time ago. 16 at the 10th anniversary of the Shelburne Museum Goes to the Dogs event about dealing with PTSD and how his dog, Tuesday, saved him. "I'm encouraging all service members to attend," Sabens said. "I worked so hard to get them here and it's finally going to happen next weekend. I couldn't have done it without the sponsors who helped me secure them to come, DAV Chapter 5, Vermont Police K9 Units, Therapy Dogs of VT, BEVS, Sears Middlebury Home Town Store and Cosmo's Cuts.

Despite what manufacturers of creams, lotions and potions would have you believe, cellulite is just plain old fat. It is nothing special that requires any special treatment. Like any other area, you cannot spot reduce your thighs to remove cellulite, so to get rid of cellulite you have to lose weight overall. One of the best ways to lose weight, and cellulite along with it, is through exercise that burns calories. It is any kind of exercise that raises the heart rate and burns fat. Examples of cardio are walking, running, biking, swimming, dancing and playing tennis. These exercises get the main muscles of the body moving. You don't have to run a five minute mile to get a good cardio workout. The best workouts involve raising your heart rate to a consistent 70 to 80 percent of your maximum heart rate and keeping it there for a consistent 20 to 30 minutes. This should be done from three to five times a week. Cardio and Strength Training When combined with strength training to help you keep and add to the lean muscle mass you have, the benefits of cardio for cellulite reduction can be beat. Three days a week of about 10 weight lifting exercises for about 20 minutes is all it takes. of the South Shore YMCA in Quincy, Massachusetts, those that combined 20 minutes of strength training with 20 minutes of cardio lost about one pound a week without changing their diet. Upping cardio to five days a week increased the weight loss. This program was so effective it became the basis of his book "No More Cellulite" (Perigee, 2003). Cardio and Cellulite According to the Mayo Clinic, "Weight loss through healthy diet and regular exercise is probably the most beneficial cellulite treatment. Losing pounds and strengthening muscles in your legs, thighs and buttocks can improve the appearance of the dimpled skin. The benefits of weight loss alone are limited, however. Though the cellulite may be less noticeable after weight loss, it won't go away completely." As previously noted, cardio is the best form of exercise to burn fat. Air Jordan 5Lab3 Black,Your computer, much like your car, needs continual maintenance in order to keep running smooth, fast, and problem free. Below we going to list 5 simple tips that are quick and easy to perform and will ensure a longer computer lifespan and more enjoyable computer experience. 1). Defragment the Hard Drive While some find this step to be quite obvious, most don really understand what this does or why it important, nor do they do it on a regular basis. In order to understand the importance of defragmenting your hard drive you need to understand a little bit about how a hard drive works. While you may organize items in your house in a logical order (food in the fridge, shoes by the door, clothes in the closet, etc), a hard drive doesn A computer stores information in the first available location it finds. This works great if all you doing is copying files on a clean hard drive as the process is quite fast. File A gets stored first, followed by File B, then File C, etc. However, problems arise when you start to delete old files and copy new ones. Removing a file leaves an empty space where the file used to be stored. When copying a new file, the computer will store as much of that file as it can in the first available empty space, and store the rest in the next available spot(s). Over time your files become very disorganized and the speed at which your computer can read files drops significantly. Think of it this way: How long would it take you to make a sandwich if the bread was in the fridge, the tomatoes on the couch, the lettuce in the bedroom, the mayonnaise in the garage, and the meat in the attic? Not only would it take excessively long to complete such a simple task, but you probably get a good workout as well. If a specific file is stored in many small pieces throughout the hard drive, reading that file will take much longer than if it was stored completely in one location. All the extra work the hard drive has to do will only lower the overall performance of your computer, and the lifespan of the hard drive. 2). Install Updates Like defragmenting your hard drive, many people also don understand why updates are important. The biggest reason is security. When Microsoft releases updates for Windows that fix security issues, they also release patch notes explaining what changes were made. The reason for this has to do with mainly large businesses. These businesses need to know what changes were made to ensure nothing will conflict with other software they are running on their networks, which could potentially cause system outages. Unfortunately, anyone can read these patch notes. Knowing that most people don update their computers, hackers are able to create malicious software that target security flaws that were addressed in a previous update. Keeping your Windows up to date (as well as other software such as Java, Flash, Adobe, etc.) is an important step to keeping your system safe and secure. Updates also add more functionality, support for newer technology, new features, and much more. 3). Get a Real Anti Virus Program While there are many good free anti virus solutions, it is strongly recommended that you purchase a fully featured anti virus program. The free software available only offers basic protection and is often inadequate if you plan to do more with your computer than just use Microsoft Word and check the weather with Internet Explorer. Fully featured anti virus programs offer a wide range of tools to keep you safe online beyond just a basic virus scan. Which anti virus solution you should go for is up for debate and you get a different answer from every computer technician. Do a little research online and find the one that right for you. Many anti virus programs also have a free trial period which you should take advantage of before making the final decision. 4). Keep Your Computer Dust Free This is an important step especially if you have pets in the house. A buildup of dust and/or pet hair will trap heat and reduce the efficiency of the fans. Even if your computer isn overheating, running a computer component at a few degrees higher than normal will only reduce its lifespan. Let say hypothetically your video card lifespan was rated at 45,000 hours (5.14 years) and increasing the temperature by 10 degrees reduced the lifespan of the card by 5%. Your video card would die more than 3 months sooner. How heat affects computer components is far more complicated so the above example is just a hypothetical scenario to illustrate that keeping your computer dust free is a very worthwhile investment, especially since it only takes 5 minutes every few months. Just purchase a compressed air can at your local computer store and dust it out as often as necessary. 5). Backup Your Files This is the MOST important step of all. All hard drives fail. It not a matter of but Keeping your important files backed up can mean the difference between a slight computer setback and a catastrophe. According to a recent report by Google, consumer grade hard drives fail at a rate of 7% per year. That 1 out of 14 every single year! If your computer exploded tomorrow and you lost everything stored on it, would you be okay? If the answer is and you not currently making regular backups of your important files, you got a big problem! Data recovery rates can set you back a few hundred or a few thousand dollars depending on problem. But backing up your important files is quick, easy, and inexpensive. A quick search for to Backup My Data on Google can show you how.

The lump is painful and may feel hot to the touch. Other symptoms include feeling feverish and having flu like symptoms. The skin over the lump may be red. Hematomas can appear exactly like breast abscesses. They share some of the same characteristics. Hematomas are swellings below the skin. The swelling is pooled blood, which often gives hematomas the bruised, blue and red colors. The hematoma is painful to the touch. Sometimes the area can become inflamed. Breast lumps not related to trauma or injury should be discussed with a doctor. Both breast cancer and fibrocystic breast disease have symptoms that mimic a breast abscess. Possible consequences of an untreated breast abscess include the rupture of the abscess into surrounding tissue. The infection is then able to spread to the surrounding areas including the milk ducts, which would allow the infectious agents into the breast milk. Additionally, if the abscess ruptures, the infection may progress to a large scale infection of the blood. Dr. Luftus says that hematomas are one of the more serious risks of breast enlargement surgery. A hematoma is a collection of. Air Jordan 5Lab3 Black Until recently, couples formed around promises of emotional exclusivity and sexual fidelity, uniqueness in each other mind and life, and (more common until the 1940s) virginity. Marriage was also a partnership: economic, or related to childrearing, or companionship. It was based on the partners past and background and geared towards a shared future. Nowadays, couples coalesce around the twin undertakings of continuity ( will ALWAYS be there for you and availability ( will always BE there for you. Issues of exclusivity, uniqueness, and virginity have been relegated to the back burner. It is no longer practical to demand of one spouse to have nothing to do with the opposite sex, not to spend the bulk of his or her time outside the marriage, not to take separate vacations, and, more generally, to be joined at the hip. Affairs, for instance both emotional and sexual are sad certainties in the life of every couple. Members of the couple are supposed to make themselves continuously available to each other and to provide emotional sustenance and support in an atmosphere of sharing, companionship, and friendship. All the traditional functions of the family can now be and often are outsourced, including even sex and emotional intimacy. But, contrary to marriage, outsourcing is frequently haphazard and unpredictable, dependent as it is on outsiders who are committed elsewhere as well. Hence the relative durability of marriage, in its conservative and less conventional forms alike: it is a convenient and highly practicable arrangement. Divorce or other forms of marital breakup are not new phenomena. But their precipitants have undergone a revolutionary shift. In the past, families fell apart owing to a breach of exclusivity, mainly in the forms of emotional or sexual infidelity; a deficiency of uniqueness and primacy: divorced women, for instance, were considered goods because they used to to another man and, therefore, could offer neither primacy nor uniqueness; or an egregious violation of the terms of partnership (for example: sloth, dysfunctional childrearing, infertility). Nowadays, intimate partners bail out when the continuous availability of their significant others is disrupted: sexually, emotionally, or as friends and companions. Marriages are about the present and are being put to the test on a daily basis. Partners who are dissatisfied opt out and team up with other, more promising providers. Children are serially reared by multiple parents and in multiple households. The ancient institution of monogamous marriage is ill suited to the exigencies of modern Western civilization. People of both genders live and work longer (which renders monogamy impracticable); travel far and away frequently; and are exposed to thousands of tempting romantic alternatives via social networking. But the roots of the crumbling alliance between men and women go deeper and further in time. Long before divorce became a social norm, men and women became two disparate, incompatible, and warring subspecies. The 20th century was a monument to male fatuity: wars and ideologies almost decimated the species. Forced to acquire masculine skills and fill men shoes in factories and fields, women discovered militant self autonomy, the superfluousness of men, and the untenability of the male claims to superiority over them. In an age of malignant individualism, bordering on narcissism, men and women alike put themselves, their fantasies, and their needs first, all else family included be damned. And with 5 decades of uninterrupted prosperity, birth control, and feminism/ women lib most of the female denizens of the West have acquired the financial wherewithal to realize their dreams at the expense and to the detriment of collectives they ostensibly belong to (such as the nuclear family.) Feminism is a movement focused on negatives (obliterating women age old bondage) but it offers few constructive ideas regarding women new roles. By casting men as the enemy, it also failed to educate them and convert them into useful allies. Owing to the dramatic doubling of life expectancy, modern marriages seem to go through three phases: infatuation (honeymoon); procreation accumulation (of assets, children, and shared experiences); and exhaustion outsourcing (bonding with new emotional and sexual partners for rejuvenation or the fulfilment of long repressed fantasies, needs, and wishes.) Divorces and breakups occur mostly at the seams, the periods of transition between these phases and especially between the stages of accumulation procreation and exhaustion outsourcing.
