FEBRUARY 2, GROUNDHOG DAY; THIS TRADITIONALLY MARKS THE MIDPOINT BETWEEN WINTER SOLSTICE & SPRING EQUINOX. AROUND THIS TIME FARMERS NEEDED TO DETERMINE WHEN TO PLANT THEIR CROPS, SO THEY TRIED TO FORCAST WHETHER THERE WOULD BE AN EARLY SPRING OR A LINGERING WINTER. SUNSHINE ON FEB. 2ND (CANDLEMAS) WAS SAID TO INDICATE THE RETURN OF WINTER. IF IT WAS CLOUDY & DARK, WARMTH & RAIN WOULD THAW OUT THE FIELDS AND HAVE THEM READY FOR PLANTING. GROUNDHOG DAY IS A SORT OF SURVIVOR OF THAT BELIEF. IF THE GROUNDHOG SEES ITS SHADOW, 6 MORE WEEKS OF WINTER, IF NOT, SPRING IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER. The Story of St. Valentine- St. Valentine was a Christian priest who lived in 270 A.D. At that time, the Roman government controlled much of the world. The Roman government needed many soldiers to protect its lands. Emperor Claudius II decided that married men did not make good soldiers because they wanted to stay at home with their wives and children. He made a very strange law that said young men were not allowed to marry. He also said that any priest who married a young couple would be put to death. A priest named Valentine disobeyed the Emperor. He secretly married many young couples. When the Emperor found out, he had Valentine imprisoned. Valentine was beheaded for his disobedience on February 14. Since Valentine had helped lovers, the day he died became a day for people to express love for other Renato Dulbecco was born on February 22, 1914, in Catanzaro, Italy, to a Calabrese mother, Maria, and a Ligurian father, Leonardo.

A medical researcher, he performed significant work on on coviruses, the viruses that can cause cancer when they infect animal cells.

Motivated by him, Dulbecco decided to study medicine at the University of Turin and graduated in morbid anatomy and pathology under the supervision of Professor Giuseppe Levi. He served in the Italian army in World War II, but later joined the resistance. After the war, he moved to the United States and began his research on viruses. After working with Salvador Luria on bacteriophages, he moved to Caltech on the invitation of Max Delbrück and joined his group. It was here that he began his seminal work on animal on coviruses, especially of polyoma family. Over the course of his career, he collaborated with several other brilliant scientists including his student Howard Temin and the cancer biologist and virologist Marguerite Vogt.

The aim of this study was to determine whether RIs of the general canine population may be applied to the Italian Greyhound (Piccoli Levrieri Italiani or PLI), and to generate breed-specific RIs, where appropriate. Sixty-three privately owned clinically healthy fasted dogs were examined. Routine haematology and biochemistry were performed on 58 enrolled patients using the ADVIA 120 haematology analyzer and the Cobas Mira system, respectively. Changes in haematological and biochemical parameters depending on sex, age and attitude (resting vs. running dogs) were investigated. The results of PLI were compared with the RIs of the general canine population. In those cases in which these RIs were not validated, new RIs were generated according to the guidelines of the American Society of Veterinary Clinical Pathology. Pre-existing RIs were considered valid based on the recommendations by the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI).

  • Spinone Italiano
    Spinone Italiano Herkunft: Es wird ursprünglich vermutet dass der Spinone aus dem Piemont stammt, und eines der ältesten Vorstehhunde ist. Es gibt zwei verschiede Meinungen. Die eine, dass er eine Kreuzung aus russischem Griffon und dem Bracco Italiano sei, die andere, dass er aus einem ausgestorbenen spanischen Vorstehhund abstammt, Nach dem zweiten Weltkrieg ist der Spinone fast ausgestorben, da die Italienischen Jäger auf andere Rassen wie der Setter, Pointer oder deutscher Drahthaar griffen. m Gegenzug kam auch der Spinone ins Ausland und hat sich Heute beinahe wieder erholt. Erscheinungsbild: Hund von kräftigem, derbem und widerstandsfähigem Körperbau, kräftiger Knochenbau, gut entwickelte Muskulatur, Rauhaar. Weiß, weiß mit orangefarbenen Platten, weiß - orange geschimmelt, weiß - orange geschimmelt mit orangefarbenen Platten, Braunschimmel, Braunschimmel mit braunen Platten und weiß mit braunen Platten. - Rüden: 60 bis 70cm bei 32 bis 37kg - Hündinnen: 58 bis 65cm bei 28 bis 30kg Rassetypische Erkrankungen Es gibt auch in dieser Rasse eine Cerebralelähmung, die meist so im Alter von einem Jahr auftreten kann. Deutschland hat gleich nach bekannt werden, einen Sammeltest durchgeführt. Arbeitseinsatz Er gilt als hervorragender Vorsteh - und Apportierhund. Der Spinone besitzt ein umgängliches Wesen, er ist leichtführig und geduldig und eignet sich für die Jagd in jedem Gelände. Er ist nahezu unermüdlich und geht willig ins dornige Gestrüpp oder wirft sich ins kalte Wasser. Die Arbeit im Sumpf und Wasser liegt ihm ganz besonders und kann der Gesundheit des exzellenten Schwimmers nichts anhaben, da ihm das robuste Fell vor Feuchtigkeit und kalten Temperaturen schützt. Spinone erweisen sich von Natur aus als vorzügliche Apportierhunde. Er besitzt eine bemerkenswerte Veranlagung zum verlängerten und schnellen Trab.

  • Sporting Group Study Guide Naturally Active and Alert, Sporting Dogs Make Likeable, Well-Rounded Companions
    Sporting Group Study Guide Naturally active and alert, Sporting dogs make likeable, well-rounded companions. Remarkable for their instincts in water and woods, many of these breeds actively continue to participate in hunting and other field activities. Potential owners of Sporting dogs need to realize that most require regular, invigorating exercise. The breeds of the AKC Sporting Group were all developed to assist hunters of feathered game. These “sporting dogs” (also referred to as gundogs or bird dogs) are subdivided by function—that is, how they hunt. They are spaniels, pointers, setters, retrievers, and the European utility breeds. Of these, spaniels are generally considered the oldest. Early authorities divided the spaniels not by breed but by type: either water spaniels or land spaniels. The land spaniels came to be subdivided by size. The larger types were the “springing spaniel” and the “field spaniel,” and the smaller, which specialized on flushing woodcock, was known as a “cocking spaniel.” ~~How many breeds are in this group? 31~~ 1. American Water Spaniel a. Country of origin: USA (lake country of the upper Midwest) b. Original purpose: retrieve from skiff or canoes and work ground c. Other Names: N/A d. Very Brief History: European immigrants who settled near the great lakes depended on the region’s plentiful waterfowl for sustenance. The Irish Water Spaniel, the Curly-Coated Retriever, and the now extinct English Water Spaniel have been mentioned in histories as possible component breeds. e. Coat color/type: solid liver, brown or dark chocolate. A little white on toes and chest is permissible.

Autophagy is a degradative cellular process, responsible for the turnover of damaged organelles and clearance of protein aggregates, that is disturbed in several neurodegenerative diseases in man.
