Sometimes, a dog owner may observe their pup eating their own poo, it can be a shocking sight, especially if you have no idea why they are doing it! This behavior is known as coprophagia. There can be many health related explanations for why he might be doing this.
If the dog is underfed, he may attempt to consume his own feces, or he may do so if they are undernourished or have digestive problems. Be sure to carefully asses your dogs diet. Make sure that it has all of the vitamins, nutrients, and calories in a proportion that is appropriate for his size and activity level! Also be aware whether or not it has an agreeable consistency–it should not be too dry or too runny/watery either.
This behavioral issue of Shih Tzu eating poo may also be related to a variety of problems, such as thyroid imbalance, diabetes, parasites. If possible, try to take a look at the fecal matter to see if any parasites are visible, if it has a watery consistency, or appears discolored. If you are able to keep a journal of your findings, then you will be better equipped to use process of elimination– no pun intended, to get to the bottom of the issue.
It is a good idea to discuss this with a veterinarian, they can conduct tests to help pinpoint the problem if it is related to a biological deficiency or disease. Before investing in any over-the-counter products or food supplements, take these steps to avoid spending money on products that do not address the true cause of your his coprophagia.
Not all dogs who engage in coprophagia have physical problems behind it. Sometimes it is due to a desire for more attention from his master. Sometimes he may do it because he sees other dogs do it, or because they are simply curious and are playing with it.
In these cases, you may be wondering what exactly you can do about it! Firstly, it is recommended to accompany your dog when he is outside and needs to use the bathroom. Bring a plastic bag so you can dispose of the stool immediately, even if you have your own backyard where you let him roam freely. This limits his opportunity to engage in coprophagia.
Also, be sure to use a shovel to bury or otherwise remove any older deposits he has already made. You may reward him with a small treat (But please do read that article about best dog food for Shih Tzu carefully, so that you are aware of both the pros and cons of treats!) after he does his business and the stool has been cleared away so that he associates the act with a treat when he does not eat it.
Do this with all dogs in your household so that they do not get confused, and to remove any temptation for the pup in question to eat his fellow dog's excrement.
It may take some patience to get rid of this habit, however if you act consistently and with patience the problem will go away. Remember, once he begins to leave this habit behind, continue to do what has been working for you, even after the problem goes away for lasting results!

Are you running out of new ideas to advertise your business in Las Vegas? On a global scale, Vegas is renowned for flaunting some of the most creative and catchy ads around; we're not just talking about the ads you can find along the Strip.
The bottom line is—competition is fierce. With so many mediums available to promote your business on and so many different technologies available today to help you get your company the leads it needs, it's hard to decide where to start.
Vehicle Wraps Are the Answer
You don't have to think too far out of the box much longer. Getting a vehicle wrap can help your company get the mileage it needs (not that kind of mileage—except in some cases), thanks to the fact that it can appeal to a wider audience.
Seeing as how billboards and other immobile signs can't change places so often, solely focusing on such forms of advertising can actually be detrimental to your business. Getting a vehicle wrap will allow you to choose when and where you want your ad to be displayed, and therefore allow you to reach the eyes of more passersby.
You might want to drive your wrapped car in traffic, or contrarily, park it in an area where you'll be able to reach your target audience. Whatever the choice, wraps are one of the few options—if not the only option—that can offer that much versatility in exhibiting your ad.
Additionally, unlike some magazine and newspaper ads, wraps let you promote your products and services without having to worry about subscriptions costs. You just pay once for a long-lasting installation.
Vehicle wraps are pretty easy to maintain and can be removed easily, too. So if you take the proper measures to maintain your wrap, you can protect your vehicle's body paint, while still adding an extra fervor to its aesthetic. When you choose to get the wrap removed, it won't damage your vehicle either.
Since vehicle wraps can be installed and removed with ease, you can adjust and change the text of your ad whenever you like, without having to worry about major costs. So when you want to feature time-sensitive promotions/specials for your products and services, you can change the wrap accordingly.
That way, you'll be able to attract more people with a large display of any discounts and even promote an event or competition to win a prize. Getting a vehicle wrap will allow you to take control of virtually every aspect of your ad.
Mobile Advertisements at Their Finest
At Team Acme, we specialize in creativity and function when it comes to installing vehicle wraps. You can get both the "show and go" from your wrap, thanks to the expertise of our skilled team of professionals.
We can sit down with you to bring your ideas to life. Contact Team Acme today for more information on our vehicle wrap options and processes. It's time to get your ad on the road!

Didymella bryoniae
Didymella bryoniae only occurs on Cucurbitaceae. Gummy stem blight is evident in various ways, such as leaf lesions, stem cankers, wilt and black rot of fruits. Pale brown or grey lesions on the leaves, petioles and stem are typical symptoms of an infection. Circular lesions on stems often grow into elongated cankers (starting at the nodes), which produce an amber-coloured gummy exudate. Leaves turn yellow and may die back, and sometimes even the whole plant will wilt and turn brown.
Host plants
Didymella bryoniae infects fruits of cucumber, melon, courgette, pumpkin and gourds and the initial symptoms are spots on the fruit surface. Symptoms vary in different crops. Over time, spots turn black and can penetrate the skin (lesion). These lesions form entry points to the fruit for other organisms and can cause internal fruit rot, resulting in the whole fruit becoming a watery mass enclosed by the skin.
The fungus grows at temperatures of between 7 °C and 33 °C. The optimum temperature range for disease development is 20°C tot 28°C. The presence of moisture is essential to fungal growth.
Didymella Bryoniae occurs worldwide. If the disease is not controlled at an early stage, it is very difficult to stop it from spreading.

Company will make reasonable efforts to provide notice to Subscriber prior to such access and transfer. Company' actions will comply with its obligations under Sections 4 and 5 of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may assign this Agreement in its entirety without consent of the other party in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets provided the assignee has agreed to be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement.

Don't miss out on the latest CyclingTips updates.
While only in its fourth year, the OVO Energy Women's Tour of Britain –with its hoards of fans, publicity and five days of hard, exciting racing – is an absolute highlight on the women's calendar. It's the only UCI Women's WorldTour event in June and after a little break since the Amgen Breakaway from Heart Disease Women's Race Empowered by SRAM, riders are raring to go.
The Women's Tour is a big target for many riders and there are several teams and riders who call this event their home race, but for Canyon-SRAM's Hannah Barnes in particular, this is a special event. As the reigning British national champion, she's wearing the iconic red-white-and-blue stripes around her chest, and crowds cheer just a little bit louder as their national champion comes by.
What's more, her friends and family are lining the course. Her parents took the week off work to travel from stage to stage and even her 89-year-old grandmother will be travelling to London to see the tour's finale. In 2015, Barnes came away with a stage win. This year, she's set her sights on putting on a show for the British fans by repeating that feat.
We'll be following Barnes throughout the tour and checking in with her after each stage.
- Stage 1: Doing it for Grandma
- Stage 2: So close!
- Stage 3: Crashes, chaos and disappointment
- Stage 4: GC shake-up in penultimate stage
- Stage 5: Champagne for Grandma
Women's Tour Stage 5 summary
As riders lined up in the heart of London for the fifth and final stage of the 2017 OVO Energy Women's Tour, the battle would be for the second and third place on GC podium. Kasia Niewiadoma (WM3 Pro Cycling) had a pretty strong hold on the leader's jersey and, barring any distasters, was set to take top honours.
And so, those teams eyeing a GC podium spot – namely Boels-Dolmans and Canyon-SRAM – were after the bonus seconds that could be gained in the intermediate sprints. Only 62 kilometres of racing lay ahead, but it was going to be one wicked fast hour and a half of racing.
Boels-Dolmans decided a bunch sprint was not in their favour and went full gas from the gun. They successfully split the field, creating a nine-rider break, with five riders of their own team, ahead of the first intermediate sprint.
But it was Hannah Barnes (Canyon-SRAM) in the pink Best British Rider jersey who outsprinted Boels-Dolmans' Christine Majerus and netted the three bonus seconds, moving her closer to a GC podium spot.
Wiggle-High5 moved to the front to chase down the break in an effort to defend Jolien D'Hoore's Eisberg sprinter's jersey, and go for the stage win.
The break was caught before the second, and last, intermediate sprint. Three very valuable seconds were on offer and several teams got their lead-out trains in order. Canyon-SRAM with four riders executed their lead-out to perfection, earning Barnes three additional seconds to move her into third place on the GC. It was all going to come down to the finish now.
As the high pace caused riders to fall off the back, Boels-Dolmans continued to attack the front group, sending one rider after another up the road. But they were running out of laps and a bunch sprint was looming.
Coming around the last bend, a clear train of black Wiggle-High5 jerseys delivered D'Hoore to the line. The powerful Belgian gave Wiggle what they came for as she crossed the line first, taking home the stage win as well as the sprinter's jersey.
Barnes took second, securing her third place in the GC as well as the Best British Rider jersey and taking home the combativity award on the stage.
With her third place finish on the stage, Majerus secured a second place in the overall.

Champagne for Grandma
With a supportive team behind her, and a crowd filled with her friends and family, Hannah Barnes desperately wanted the stage win today…and she got so close!
"I would have loved to have given my team the win today," said Barnes. "They have been so great all tour and given me so much confidence. The whole team was there for me."
Still, she put on a tremendous show for all British cycling fans by winning both intermediate sprints to successfully move herself onto the GC podium while also coming away with the combativity award and Best British Rider jersey. All in all, a highly successful race for the Canyon-SRAM squad.
"Today was a day to fight, and we did that. To go out there into the stage today with a plan and to have the whole team there for me and give me the confidence I needed as our GC leader, that was definitely a highlight for me," said Barnes.
"We had the plan to go for the intermediate sprints and so to do that and come second at the finish and third on general classification is really great. I couldn't have asked for much more. It's been a really good week."

One thing is for sure, Barnes put on an amazing show today, one that her 89-year-old grandmother will surely remember.
"She's in a wheelchair and has been in hospitality all day so I didn't see much of her. But yeah, she had a good time. All she really wanted was the bottle of champagne from the podium!" said Barnes.
Battle of the Barneses
After a good battle between her and her younger sister, Alice (Drops Cycling), Barnes came out on top, but the battle will soon continue.
Barnes is headed back to her home in Girona for a short training block before returning to the UK for the British national road championships at the end of the month. Barnes and Alice went 1-2 last year, and they'll definitely be going into the race among the favourites.
"There are going to be a lot of strong riders there this year," said Barnes. "It's always a funny race that one, but it'll be very competitive."
Who's your money on?

I came across this story of a girl the same age my daughter is now. She was born on the 15th August 1928 in Poland. And died at the tender age of 14 on 12th March 1943. When I say 'died', she was murdered in Auschwitz by the Nazis. Because she lived in an area of Poland earmarked for resettlement.
I was so taken by her image and her story – her absolute innocence, that I felt compelled to write a poem about her. To honour her tragically short life in some way. I know it doesn't make a blind bit of difference if I write a few pathetic lines of poetry 77 years later. But it matters to me. It could've been my daughter, but for circumstance. Or yours. It still could be, the way the world is going.
15 seconds.
For Czeslawa Kwoka.
There's this girl.
Her nose and cheeks are pink,
like she's just come in from the cold.
She's looking up at the camera
with fear in her blue-grey eyes.
Her fair hair is roughly shorn,
and she wears an over-sized
blue and white striped tunic,
held together with safety pins.
She doesn't understand what they are saying,
she doesn't speak the language.
So the Kapo beats her about the head with a stick.
Her lips are thin and cut
like they're trying to still a tremble.
There's a badge sewn over her heart
with the serial number 26947 printed on it.
She has a name though. It's Czeslawa.
She is 14 years old.
The same age as my daughter.
But she looks much younger.
Like a terrified little girl.
She hasn't done anything wrong.
Except, be Polish.
And Catholic.
And ill.
Probably typhus or T.B.
The cause is irrelevant.
She's too ill to work.
So she's surplus to requirements.
The doctor will see you now.
He's going to inject a final solution
of phenol directly into her heart.
It will kill her in 15 seconds.
Or not.
It's not an exact science.
If he misses the ventricle it could take up to an hour.
Once administered, she will be thrown
onto the pile of bodies in the room next door.
Where her body will turn a shade of livid pink
for the next 60 minutes.
Because that is too long to wait,
to see whether the procedure was a success.
They are only allowed two minutes
and 22 seconds
per murder.
So she lies on the pile of dead people,
gulping for oxygen.
Knowing that she too, is soon to be one of them.

Like gelotanous globs, his eyes are stuck partially open by the edema. She stares at the figure. The swollen man's head has purple tinged ears. Blood stains the sheets.
The words of the surgeon echo distantly in her head; "he is stable."
She slinks to the bathroom for refuge, and a figure with sunken cheeks and blood red eyes reflects in the mirror.
She wonders if the man with coarse leathery hands will ever hold hers delicately again. But a claw grips her heart like a vice.

Child's pose is a great stretch to do before bed as it helps lower your heart rate, control your breathing, and release tension in your back, neck, and shoulders. Get down onto your knees and sit your behind on your heels. Widen your knees so that you're able to fold down to the floor and stretch your arms out in front of you. If you can, gently place your forehead on the floor and take several deep breaths as you hold this pose.
Seated forward bend
Some stretches relieve tension throughout our body. Thankfully, the seated forward bend is one on the list. Sit on the floor with your legs straight out in front of you. Use your abdominal muscles to gently lower your top half forward while stretching your arms toward your toes. If you can, gently grab your feet to deepen the stretch while keeping your chin tucked into your chest to get even more out of your stretch.
Bear hug
Many of us feel pretty uncomfortable in our shoulders and neck by the end of the day. Thankfully, the bear hug is easy and effective. Stand tall and take a deep breath. Then, as you exhale, fold your arms around yourself and grab the opposite shoulder as though you are giving yourself a hug. Be sure to relax your shoulders and take some deep breaths. Repeat the exercise, but this time, make sure the opposite arm is on top.
Legs-on-the-wall stretch
This is a simple stretch, but one that we should all do before bed if we want to undo tension from the day. Simply lie down next to the wall before swinging your legs up the wall and turning your body so that your behind is against the wall, too. You can use a cushion if you need some extra support under your pelvis. You can let your arms fall wherever they feel natural. Be sure to hold this pose for up to ten minutes to get the most out of it.
Neck stretches
It's key to ensuring you keep your shoulders down and spine long when doing neck stretches. You can sit in a chair or stand tall. Whatever the case, gently lean your head to one side, bringing your ear to the shoulder and not the other way around. Hold the position for a few seconds before gently swapping sides. This easy stretch can be done for as long as you need to feel the relief.
These easy stretches we should all do before bed aren't just simple; they are quick and easy to do. Thankfully, incorporating them into our routine shouldn't be too difficult, and it might not be long before we feel all the benefits from something so simple.

Ovalis, is an artwork by British photographer Gina Soden.
This photograph was captured in a semi-abandoned power station which houses this beautiful art deco control room. The glass ceiling is unusually elegant and incongruously impressive for its industrial setting. The control room and switch house were concealed during the war to make the building less obvious to enemy raids. Thankfully it is protected by law so cannot be demolished, despite the ruinous nature of the site.
With a fascination for ruins and urban exploration Gina Soden explores some of the more unusual sites throughout Europe. Hospitals, asylums, schools, coal mines or abandoned churches, Gina Soden relentlessly hunts down these unique places where the sheer magic outstrips the dilapidation. The photographic work of Gina Soden is incredibly poetic. She manages to give these unusual places a beauty they've either lost or never had to start with. With her pictorial treatment and a lyrically artistic approach the artist awakens a magic that inhabits these places and embellishes them, through her detailed compositions, with a triumphant aspect.
This signed and numbered photograph is only available in a limited edition. This work is sold unframed. Dimensions shown include a 2cm white border.

Treasure Island
Treasure Island is a modern engineering marvel that has had the best seat in the house for more than 80 years. The fact that it even exists is a human achievement.
Treasure Island is a 400-acre artificial island built by the Army Corps of Engineers in 1936-37 on the shoals of neighboring Yerba Buena Island. While its name implies that there was something of value buried beneath, it was actually constructed from mud dredged up from the bay.
The original purpose of Treasure Island was to host the 1939-40 Golden Gate International Exposition. The GGIE was a glowing Art Deco "Magic City" of towers, gardens, goddesses, and dazzling lighting effects created to celebrate the ascendency of California and San Francisco as economic, political, and cultural forces in the Pacific region. The fair also celebrated the local engineering achievements of the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges. After the fair, the US Navy took control of the island and transformed it into a naval station.
Naval Station Treasure Island was closed in 1997 and leased to the City of San Francisco. Today the island is open to the public and is home to more than 2,000 residents, commercial tenants, restaurants, schools, arts and athletic organizations, and community organizations.
Reasons to Visit
First and foremost: the view. San Francisco's entire northern waterfront from bridge to bridge is picture-perfect here. The island is also home to public art, flea markets, and festivals throughout the year.

PRESIDENT Nicos Anastasiades and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday expressed their conviction that relations between the two countries would reach a new level after signing a number agreements on culture, education and scientific cooperation, merchant shipping, air services and agriculture.
Speaking at a press conference in New Delhi, Anastasiades said the meeting was yet another stepping stone in the countries' common history and has provided an opportunity to take stock of bilateral relations and explore concrete ways in which to take these relations forward, by identifying specific areas to work together to modernize the relationship and amplify the benefits for both sides.
He also said that the agreements the two countries signed furthered enhance the long-standing relations between India and Cyprus, and add to the extensive existing legal framework, which included 16 bilateral agreements and memoranda of understanding.
"Prime Minister Modi and I share the conviction that our bilateral relations are excellent," Anastasiades said. "We have discussed ways and areas where we must further promote the cooperation between India and Cyprus in the economic, investment, and tourism fields."
The Cypriot president added that the two countries stand ready to explore enhanced cooperation in fields such as renewable energy, solar energy, information technology, and innovation where India is a pioneer.
"Cyprus welcomes the participation of Indian companies in the development of knowledge-based industries, and I would like to extend an invitation to Indian companies to consider investing in a technological park in Cyprus, which will provide them easy access to Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and the Gulf region," he said.
The president said EU and India shared common values, in particular as regards the rule of law, democracy, and free and fair trade, and pointed that Cyprus was a firm supporter of the enhancement of the EU-India strategic partnership and dynamic cooperation in all areas of mutual interest.
He also said that they both agreed on the crucial importance of the EU and India working closely together to effectively tackle major global challenges, such as climate change, sustainable development, the protection of maritime environment and international terrorism.

He referred to the double taxation avoidance agreement the two sides signed last year, pointing out that India offers excellent investment opportunities for Cypriot entrepreneurs.

Homes in Watkinsville, GA, rely on traditional HVAC equipment like furnaces and air conditioners for heating and cooling. By contrast, a geothermal system is a single system that uses the temperature of the earth to control the climate in your home. Learn more about geothermal HVAC systems and how they work below.
What Is a Geothermal HVAC System?
Geothermal HVAC systems consist of two parts. An underground loop with a heat-transferring liquid pulls heat from the earth for heating or disperses it into the ground for cooling. An indoor heat pump then transfers heat from the loop into your home.
How Does Geothermal Work?
Geothermal HVAC systems use the near-constant temperature of the earth. Even on the coldest days, the underground temperature in Watkinsville, GA, is around 65 degrees Fahrenheit. The ground warmed by the sun thus becomes a heat source in the winter and a heat sink in the summer.
Installing a Geothermal System
The most expensive part of the geothermal system is the installation. Inside your home, there is minimal work. The heat pump unit is relatively easy to install, and it can push warm or cool air through your existing ductwork.
The outdoor work is more challenging. The most common design is a horizontal loop, which sits in trenches that are 3 to 6 feet underground. On a smaller lawn, the installer may use a deeper, vertical loop to save space.
Benefits of a Geothermal System
Installing a geothermal HVAC system in your Watkinsville, GA, home has several benefits. These systems are extremely efficient. Although the initial installation is more expensive than traditional HVAC systems, the cost of operation is much lower.
A geothermal system is a clean energy system. This system runs on electricity and the natural heat of the earth, so during the heating season, you will not burn fossil fuels to warm your home. The same goes for the cooling season.
In addition, geothermal HVAC systems are durable. Because they are not exposed to the elements, the underground loop can last up to 50 years. Manufacturers expect the indoor equipment to last 20 years with proper care.
To install a geothermal system at your Watkinsville, GA, home, you need a professional company to get the job done right. Contact Phelps Heating and Air Conditioning today for your geothermal HVAC system needs.

I've been giving you informal writing prompts for several weeks. Today, I have a formal writing prompt suitable for high school juniors and seniors and for first-year college students.
The prompt requires students to use information from outside the English curriculum to which all students should have exposed by the time they reach high school. If you're an English teacher reluctant to have students write on a topic that sounds like it belongs in the science curriculum, you could partner with someone on the science faculty to assign a paper that can be turned in for credit in either or both courses.
The prompt
Identify three questions in your major field for which the scientific method is entirely inappropriate. In your response, discuss at least two characteristics of the scientific method and explain precisely why each of those characteristics makes the scientific method an inappropriate way to investigate each of those three questions.
Please confine your response to no more than 650 words.
Notes on the prompt
Responding to this prompt is easy once students get over the shock of being asked to identify questions in their major field. They may never have thought of physical education or ceramics as fields that have questions. Writing the actual response should take no more than an hour once they identify some questions in their fields.
