When bad weather keeps you from getting outside to walk your dog, the Pet Loo is your answer. It lets your pet do his "business" indoors, with hassle-free disposal of urine and easy scooping of solids. Long days at work, weekend sleep-ins, and inclement weather no longer mean puddles or messes to clean up. The Pet Loo can also help protect your beautiful lawn in summertime. Simply use it on the deck or patio to eliminate finding and scooping waste on the lawn, and forget about lawn burn. The Pet Loo resembles a patch of grass to entice dogs to "go" upon it, and it keeps pet waste in one, easy-clean location. Its heavy-duty polymer frame supports a slanted tray, a soak-through artificial grass mat, and a collection cup. Here's how it works. Urine seeps through the grass mat, runs down the slanted tray, and collects in the removable 1.75 liter container. Simply slide out the container and pour liquid wastes into your toilet. Solids can be easily scooped and flushed, too. Compared to the competition, this unit is extremely lightweight for easy portability. Other units have a wider, clumsier collection tray that increases the likelihood of spills when removed for disposal. This unit's compact collection cup can be removed with a single hand and poses very little risk of spills. Alternate with Replacement Grass (sold separately) when cleaning and drying a soiled grass mat. Use the Pet Loo for any sized dog. The Mini Wee is ideal for small to medium breed dogs or for smaller apartments where space is limited. Mini Wee 25" x 25" x 5" Weighs 11 lbs Pet Loo 33" x 33" x 5" Weighs 15 lbs Biodegradable, enzyme-based Wee Care Liquid (sold separately) can be sprayed on the grass after the daily rinse to break down bacteria and organic compounds for proper sanitation. 500 ml, 17.5 oz.

On contact, the included Wee Sponge (crystals) acts like a magnet to rapidly absorb over 100X their weight in moisture. 7-pack Pods includes 200 g WEE Sponge Crystals and scoop. 14-pack Pods includes 400 g WEE Sponge Crystals and scoop.

Pilates For BeginnersComplete newcomers to Pilates should start with Pilates for Beginners, it is designed for anyone who is considering starting Pilates either as a form of exercise or to help to relieve Back Pain, this will prepare your body to safely execute more challenging exercises in the future This DVD is the perfect introduction to Pilates. You will learn the basics of this popular workout. You will also learn proper breath control and the importance of core, powerhouse and girdle exercises. This beginner Pilates DVD is a great place to start if you are new to Pilates. The Pilates Collection – Other Titles In This SeriesPilates For Back PainPilates IntermediatePilates AdvancedPilates For Six Pack AbsPilates For MenPilates For Over 50’sWhat is Pilates?Pilates is a form of exercise that is used to stretch and revitalize the body. Pilates is used by dancers, athletes, those who are in pain or have sustained an injury, and people of many ages. This form of exercise was first developed by a man who was known as Joseph Pilates. He first designed this fitness program to be used on World War I soldiers as a rehabilitation method for those who suffered from disabilities. As a child, Joseph was a sickly boy but later on in his years, he grew to be very strong. His goal for Pilates was to balance, stretch, and revitalize the body as well as the mind. When a person takes up Pilates, it has been known to strengthen, tone, improve flexibility and you get an overall feeling of health in your body. When you perform Pilates, your main area of focus is on the torso area of your body. Pilates strengthens your muscles with creating any added bulk on the body. It is also helpful in improving body awareness.Doing PilatesPilates is an exercise form that can be performed by almost anyone who is willing to give it a try. It is usually performed on a mat but it can also make use of exercise balls and other Pilates equipment such as a Reformer. Most of the Pilates forms are done while the subject is lying down. However, there are certain exercises that can be performed while sitting, kneeling, or standing as well. Pilates is a great exercise for relieving back pain because it focuses on strengthening your core muscles, which include the back. Pilates exercises are very smooth and controlled movements, so there is little danger of getting injured while exercising. It’s also a great way to work on your strength and flexibility, both of which help to alleviate back pain.However, as with yoga, you should avoid any extreme twisting or bending movements. Also as with yoga, Pilates exercises should be done on a mat or other soft, supportive surface.One of the best benefits of Pilates is that it helps improve posture, a common cause of lower back pain. Use common sense when doing Pilates; if exercises that arch your back hurt, don’t do those. Or if exercises that round your back hurt, do only the back arching ones. When you practice Pilates remember to wear something that is comfortable. You should wear an outfit that is able to stretch with your body and not wear something that is either too tight or too loose. You must understand that Pilates involves a wide variety of positions so you want to feel your best moving around a lot. During this form of exercise, shoes are usually not worn.The DVDsIn these DVDs professional New York Pilates instructor Madeline Kahts will teach you the various movements of this extremely effective form of exercise so you can build a strong,sexy, and functional body within just a few weeks.She is an exceptionally skilled Pilates practitioner, who has taught thousands of students the Pilates method. Madeline takes you step by step through the Pilates program, enabling you to learn Pilates at a pace that suits you, in the comfort of your own home, at a fraction of the cost of lessons.This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.

If you get migraines you know how laughable it is to hear them described as “headaches.” As one poet put it, “the migraine is a beast from Hell, a bone-crushing, brain-twisting, heart-rending, apocalyptic scourge—an insult to all that’s holy.” And that’s putting it mildly. People have been trying to tame the migraine beast for thousands of years. Some early healers bored holes into their patients’ skulls, the Greeks inhaled the smoke of burning coffee beans, while in ancient Egypt, doctors tied herb-stuffed clay crocodiles to migraine sufferer’s heads. Fortunately, we live in more enlightened times and there are now medically sound approaches that are relatively simple and inexpensive—and they don’t leave scars or involve extreme fashion statements.Your complete guide to taking charge of your migraines and getting your life back, Migraines For Dummies offers a focused, fleshed-out program that works in the real world.

The tremendous physical mastery of a 21st century dancer undoubtedly rivals that of an athlete, but the importance and significance of nutrition could not be any more different. However, merely likening the strength, Agility and physicality of a dancer to that of an athlete overlooks the very nature of dance, embodying the vigour and sublime beauty of the dancer's physique as a visual expression of art. The author trained as a professional dancer, and is thus fully aware of the extraordinary demands placed on students and professional dancers. As a nutritionist, she now recognises that so many talented dancers forfeit their health, their skill and ultimately their career solely because they are unaware of the importance behind good nutrition. The misconception that health be surrendered for the lean silhouette has emanated in dance schools and professional companies around the world. Dance scientists today know this does not have to be the case. Nutrition for the Dancer is a complete guide to nutrition. From calculating individual calorie requirements, reducing body fat, performance preparation, nutrition for a young dancer, recovery from injury, recipes and stock cupboard ideas, this book provides invaluable snippets of advice to dancers.

As they try to balance the demands of careers and family life, they are too often left with a feeling of imbalance, a feeling that can manifest in both physical and emotional stress.

Did you truly enjoy the food you ate today? Do you really like the way you look and feel? Are you consistently enjoying great health and high energy? Bill Phillips, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Body-for-LIFE, believes your answer to all of the above questions should be, "Yes!" He feels that food should be a source of pure pleasure. A source of positive, abundant energy! A "sure thing" in a world of much uncertainty. Phillips, who's widely regarded as today's most successful fitness author, has firm beliefs which go against the grain of today's popular weight-loss methods. "Diets, all of them, are potentially dangerous, most always dumb and ultimately a dead-end street!" he insists. "Eventually, anyone and everyone who's at all concerned with their health must learn how to feed their body, not how to starve it." Instead, Phillips encourages a safe and sound solution which includes eating balanced, nutrient-rich meals, frequently throughout the day. "This is what works in the long run," he explains. Rich with common sense and science, Eating for Life has rhyme and reason. It is specific. There are very clear dos and don'ts which help people enjoy food and improve their overall fitness. Bill's approach, which he calls the "Eating for Lifestyle," has already helped thousands of people break free from the dieting dilemma and discover that, contrary to pop-culture belief, food is friend, not foe. Used intelligently, it nourishes the body and mind, satisfies the appetite, calms cravings, renews health and lifts energy. Like Bill Phillips' Body-for-LIFE, this is a tell-it-like-it-is book. There's no promise of a quick fix. No metabolic tricks or so-called miracles. Just straightforward, clear, concise, practical and appropriate principles for eating right... for life. Minimize

Over the past 50 years, a dangerous set of technologies has crept into beef and dairy farms and ranches. Technologists have succeeded in pushing the pounds of milk that can be extracted from a cow higher and higher and throwing pounds of weight on beef cattle faster. But it came with a price. The average age of dairy cow "burnout" has dropped for almost a decade. Infections are rampant. New diseases and health maladies have appeared. Drug use and vet bills have skyrocketed. The healthfulness of milk and beef has been questioned. In this breakthrough book subtitled A Farmer's Guide to Low-Cost, Non-Toxic Veterinary Care of Cattle, Dr. Sheaffer passes along his hard-learned knowledge - in language farmers can understand - of how to care for the herd in a healthy, holistic manner. Utilizing homeopathy - an effective, non-toxic form of medicine derived from herbs and other natural substances - as well as other healing alternatives, he will teach you to truly understand the cause behind a disease condition, and then how to treat the entire animal for that condition. Using case studies and practical examples from both dairy and beef operations, Dr. Sheaffer covers such topics as: creating a holisitic operation; organics and homeopathy; prescribing; mastitis and fertility-related problems; and the Materia Medica, keynotes and nosodes. Also includes a convenient section that lists specific donditions and remedies. Whether you're a beginning farmer of lifelong cattleman, this hands-on guide will prove to be nothing short of a revolution for your herd. Minimize

You may think you know enough about osteoporosis without reading a whole book on it. Take calcium, try not to fall down the basement steps, be prepared to shrink three or four inches as you get older, and so on, right? What else is there to know? Plenty, as we hope you'll agree after reading this book. The unfortunate fact is that although nobody wants to have osteoporosis, not enough people take steps to decrease their chances of developing it. Considering that your odds of developing osteoporosis in the United States today are around 40 percent if you're female and 10 percent if you're male, many people are leaving the fate of their bones to chance. One of our goals in writing this book is to keep you from developing osteoporosis. However, if you already have osteoporosis, our goal is to minimize the damage it does to your bones, through medication, healthy eating, and exercise. If you've already fallen and broken bones, we want to help you avoid another fall. If you have children or grandchildren, we hope that you'll nag them into taking steps to avoid falling into osteoporosis themselves. We want to help you have healthy bones. We also want you to avoid spending months in casts or in surgery after falls that break bones you really need to stay mobile. You can prevent osteoporosis or at least reduce its severity, but it takes lifestyle changes that start in childhood. Is it worth it? Ask anyone who's spent six months recovering from a broken hip. Does it take discipline? Yes-but so does learning to walk again. Nothing in life is simple, but our goal is to educate you as painlessly as possible to the high cost of osteoporosis, and the newest ways to prevent, diagnose, and treat it. Don't fall into the trap of believing that osteoporosis is inevitable; we're here to help you avoid the bad breaks. Minimize

Incorporating a wealth of practice exercises and high-interest readings, Reading for Thinking focuses on improving reading skills at the "micro- level" and moving on to the "macro-level." Over half of the book is devoted to evaluating, drawing inferences, and identifying tone, bias, and purpose. The Sixth Edition continues to focus on developing students' comprehension and critical-thinking skills. Flemming uses a carefully designed sequence of explanations and exercises that allows students to approach critical reading as a natural extension of essential comprehension skills, rather than a discrete set of new strategies. Armed with the ability to both analyze and evaluate a writer's work, students apply those twin intellectual tools to Flemming's trademark high-interest readings to determine purpose, analyze evidence, detect bias, recognize tone, and compare opposing points of view.

I am scattered into a million pieces. Little pieces of sand or glass. Sharp-edged knives or swords, like the ones daddy plays with. They won't let me but when I close my hands I cut myself anyway. Sharp-edged words and eyes, I try to hide from them but cannot." These are the words of Marzita Zaferatos, a mentally-ill young woman who wanders into the lives of her neighbors on Locust Street, whether they want her to or not. On the street live a frail spinster, a career-driven couple and their toddler, a neurologist with a constricting shyness of women, a teenager who wishes her life could be as interesting as her daydreams, and Marzita's father, a circus juggler. These residents are scarcely aware of each other's existence, guarding their private lives behind doors and fences. But Marzita doesn't understand that only superficial contact is customary in the close confines of a city. Sometimes unwillingly, her neighbors are caught up in her delusional, fairytale vision of life with princes and princesses, evil dukes, malevolent knives, circus stars and music, as her world spins out of control and the boundary between insanity and reality unravels. This is the story of how people react when confronted by someone whose life is more out of control than their own. It is a story of love, misunderstanding, suspense and heartbreak. It is one that is familiar to us, as we wonder about our neighbors, experience the painfulness of self-doubt, or witness the confusion and fright of mental illness. It is the story of all who are forced to confront the chaos in their own lives. Minimize

FertilityRegimen for Women is the only fertility system that supports your changing cycle with a unique two part formula: a follicular phase booster and a luteal phase enhancing multivitamin. On the first day of your period, start taking both products - the Preconception Multivitamin with Vitex (in the bottle) and the Synchronized Follicular Phase Booster (in the blister pack). Once the blister pack contents are exhausted (on day 15), continue taking the Preconception Multivitamin with Vitex until the start of your next cycle or until you become pregnant. Each carton contains a one month supply. Synchronized Follicular Phase BoosterThe components in FertilityRegimen's Synchronized Follicular Phase Booster were selected to aid follicle development, egg maturation, and assist with proper egg release (ovulation). Each of these ingredients was chosen, based on decades of scientific research, for their unique ability to augment the follicular phase response to maximize chances of conception.These ingredients have extensive use individually, but now they have been combined to offer you powerful synergistic effects. Preconception Multivitamin with VitexThis component of the system is the base - a world class, fertility-tuned multivitamin that contains Vitex to help with luteal phase response. Vitex agnus-castus (Vitex or chasteberry), enhances hormone balance and ovulation regularity. Vitamin E, and selenium help repair oxidative damage due to aging and environment. Vitamins B6 and B12 and minerals like iron, zinc and magnesium help address specific deficiencies to promote fertility health.
