Where the Critters Are In Charge - And They Know It!

2010-10-18

ENCINITAS, CA, October 18, 2010 (Press-News.org) There's a hilarious new line of pet art in town, and they're barking out to Opinionated Pets(R) everywhere!

Pet Parents know who they are. They're the ambitious dogs who "landscaped" their yards to smithereens. They're the "innocents" who swear they "didn't do it" - whatever "it" is. They're the critters who look at their humans "sideways" to let them know that what they just said is utterly ridiculous. And they're the adoring, unconditionally devoted pets who bring love, joy - and above all - certainty into this new world where love, joy and certainty are in increasingly short supply.

Today's pets have an uncanny ability to communicate - and their captivated parents hang on every word. Opinionated Pets(R) celebrates (and exposes) the human-pet relationship like never before. This unique and uproarious pack of pets pops off opinions on everything from dingoes to dinner. Their facial expressions, sentiments, attitudes and witticisms are so recognizable - so steeped in truth - they shoot straight to the heart and funny bone of anyone who's ever had a better day after some critter nuzzled them with a wet nose.

Recently, a select pack of Opinionated Pets(R) were invited to swap pet stories with the stars at the 2010 Emmy Awards Connected Celebrity Gift Room. The celebrities' reactions mirrored those of pet lovers far and wide. One after another, their faces lit up, their pets' pictures and stories came out, and the fun flowed freely.

AURORA, Colo.

"This is the first time a study of this size and duration has ever been done on a weight loss program," said Nia Mitchell, MD, MPH, ...

Using discards, scientists discover different dinosaurs' stomping grounds

2010-10-17

New Haven, Conn.—By examining the type of rock in which dinosaur fossils were embedded, an often unappreciated part of the remains, scientists have determined that different species of North American dinosaurs from the Late Cretaceous period 65 million years ago occupied different environments separated by just a few miles. Hadrosaurs or duck-billed dinosaurs, along with the small ornithopod Thescelosaurus, preferred to live along the edge of rivers, according to the research. Ceratopsians, on the other hand, which include the well-known Triceratops, preferred to be several ...

Small BMI change in overweight children could have big blood pressure impact

2010-10-17

Small changes in weight can make bigger differences in the blood pressure for overweight children, compared to those at normal weight, according to a new study. Researchers tracked blood pressure, height and weight of 1,113 children over time, with the longest follow-up exceeding 10 years. They then compared the children's body mass index (BMI, a measure of body weight) to national charts adjusted for age, sex and height. Kids with BMIs in the 85th percentile or higher are considered overweight. "Below the 85th percentile, BMI effects on blood pressure appear to be fairly ...

Team of chemists produces biodiesel at their university, using used cooking oil as a basis

2010-10-17

The cafeterias at the Catering School on the Leioa campus of the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) use litres upon litres of oil for cooking, given that many students, research workers, lecturers and ancillary staff eat there.

However, a number of Chemistry Faculty lecturers have demonstrated that this oil can be used and revalued at the university itself, having managed to produce biodiesel from the used oil. According to lecturer Ms Eneritz Anakabe, "we have shown that it can be done on a small scale, that biodiesel ...
