Crazy Muscle Dog

Wendy the Whippet, Super Muscle Dog due to Genetic mutation

This is Wendy, over 50 pounds of rippling muscles. Although quite intimidating, Wendy is actually a very friendly dog. Her amazing hulk-like muscles are due to a genetic mutation in the whippet breed. According to the Times Colonist;

Wendy was recently part of a genetics study done in the U.S. on mutation in the myostatin gene in whippets, which resemble greyhounds in appearance.

[…] whippets with two mutated copies of the gene become “double-muscled,” like Wendy. It has been seen before in one human, and also in mice, cattle and sheep, says the study.

Having a Whippet (you know, the lean, non-mutant type), that just scares the heck out of me. Though I’m sure she’s a sweetie, as I’ve never met a Whippet I didn’t like. :)

exciting for lace empire wedding dresshis father’s heart to bear so he suddenly

fell down to the ground for the heart attack. 120 was soon dialed but wang’s father passed away at last. it was too cruel for wang to see his father die in

“True security will not come through nuclear weapons,” Obama said. He called Iran the only signer of the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty “that cannot convince the IAEA that its nuclear program is intended for peaceful purposes,the hottest Air Max shoes” referring to the U.N.’s International Atomic Energy Agency.

White rice poses a diabetes threat because it causes steep rises in blood sugar, say Harvard researchers in Archives of Internal Medicine.

Brown rice and other wholegrain foods are a healthier option as they release glucose more gradually, they say.

The study is based on questionnaires; some say the data is not robust enough to base firm conclusions on.

It may be that people who eat less white rice tend to live healthier lifestyles, for example.

Washington (CNN) — President Barack Obama on Wednesday asked Congress for $15 million in emergency funding for the new national commission investigating the oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico.

“The Administration asked Congress to consider an emergency budget amendment of $15 million for the Department of Energy to fund the activities of that commission,” an administration official told CNN on condition of not being identified.

“This amendment would fund necessary expenses, including personnel costs, authorized travel, research and investigation costs, reimbursement to federal agencies for operational and logistical support, and other costs in carrying out the mandate of the commission,” the official said.

The seven-member commission will report back by the end of the year on the causes of the disaster, as well as “options for safety and environmental precautions necessary to prevent a similar disaster from happening again,” Obama wrote in a letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi requesting the funds.

While I do not doubt the absolute numbers of those abusing pain killers to the point of requiring a hospital visit, I would be willing to bet the numbers are much, much higher for those who suffer and cannot get pain meds from their doctors. The doctors I have dealt with are remarkably immune to the need to reduce suffering with pain medication. Now that I have chronic, debilitating pain, the fact that I have to rely on OTC meds(not without their own risk) is deplorable.

After living in Canada where low-dosage codeine tablets were available behind the counter without a prescription and using it judiciously to reduce pain without a problem, I find the difficulty of obtaining ANY prescription painkiller frustrating, especially as it is usually refused simply because the doctor does not want any undue attention.
I am really tired of a system for pain relief based on “walk it off” or “rub dirt on it” which means I have no pain relief at all.

Bob Barry fought and went through a variety of treatments, but he died 15 months later.

On Sunday, Ms. Barry and about three dozen of her family members and friends walked as Team Bob Barry in the 8th Annual Father’s Day 5k/10k Run and Walk for Prostate Cancer, hosted by the Obediah Cole Foundation for Prostate Cancer.

“For me, personally, it’s to let normal people know — at 40 years of age, you need to get your brother, dad, husband, uncle to the doctor to get checked,” Ms. Barry said. “I don’t want any more young widows. I don’t want anymore young children to be without their fathers.”

Among those who participated in the North Shore run/walk were a number of school friends of the Barrys’ daughter, Justine, 13.

There were more than 2,000 participants on Sunday, including 20 teams, set up to run in memory of a loved one.

“It just overwhelms me and gives me hope,” said Ms. Barry, 46, of Avalon.

Edward J. Anderson, who died July 12, 2009, at age 84, was one of the inaugural members of the event, and served as volunteer coordinator.

“He had hoped all of us would be involved,” said his son, Paul.

On Sunday, Paul Anderson and 17 other members of the family and several friends turned out in force.

“McDonald’s is the stranger in the playground handing out candy to children,” Stephen Gardner, litigation director for the advocacy group said in a statement. “McDonald’s use of toys undercuts parental authority and exploits young children’s developmental immaturity.”
McDonald’s disagreed strongly with that characterization, saying that its meals were “right-sized for kids” and that it offered healthful choices. Toys, said spokesman William Whitman, are “just one part of a fun, family experience at McDonald’s.”

The chain’s menu now includes the option of apple slices instead of French fries, he said. And children can order milk or juice with their Happy Meals rather than soda. Since the apple slices, called “Apple Dippers” by the company because they include a caramel sauce for dipping, were introduced in 2008,
customers have ordered them more than 100 million times in the U.S., Whitman said.

Opponents of toys in fast food meals say the promotions are feeding the nation’s obesity epidemic by making unhealthy food seem more desirable to children. But the food industry says that healthier choices are now available to children — and urges parents to take responsibility for what their kids order.

FBI agents arrested 10 people on charges that they spent years in the United States as spies for Russia, taking on fake identities and trying to ferret out intelligence about U.S. policy and secrets by making connections to think tanks and government officials, the Justice Department said Monday.

The arrests Sunday capped an almost surreal investigation that extended to the Clinton administration and involved video surveillance, hidden microphones and surreptitious FBI searches of homes along the East Coast. It climaxed Saturday with a fake “drop” in a park in Arlington County, when one of the suspects left $5,000 in an envelope inside a folded newspaper, which was recovered by the FBI.

Three of those arrested lived in Arlington, and court documents depict a trail of covert meetings between the suspects and undercover agents just blocks from the White House and in midtown Manhattan. At one point, agents videotaped an alleged conspirator brushing past his Russian handler and surreptitiously exchanging bags to be paid

The world literally fades to grey when we feel depressed, scientists have discovered.
To investigate links 传奇私服between mood disorders and vision, Emanuel Bubl at the University of Freiburg, Germany, and colleagues ran an electrode along one eye in each of 40 people with depression, and 40 people without. The electrodes measured activity in the nerves connecting photoreceptors to the optic nerve, but not the brain. 传奇私服Participants sat in a dimly lit room and watched a black and white chequered screen which became greyer in six distinct stages, reducing the contrast between each square. Each stage was presented for 10 seconds. 传奇私服The team found that electrical signals to the optic nerve were lower in people with depression. For example, when viewing the stage containing black and
传奇私服white squares, healthy volunteers had three times the nerve activity of those with depression, indicating that depression diminishes the ability to detect contrast. The more severe a person’s depression, the worse their perception of contrast.传奇私服Bubl believes that a similar technique could be used to aid diagnosis of clinical depression.
