The Shipping and Handling Myth
I just saw a DVD for auction at $3.50 starting price.Sounds reasonable right,theres just one small catch.They want$20.00US to mail this to Canada.Boy, gas must really be expensive where she lives.Let's get real.Any okay buyer with a little bit of experienceknows what's going on.Most sellers also know because they are the onesdoing it.The only one who doesn't seem to know is okay.Sellers are placing items in auctions at low prices tosuck in buyers and then they exploit them with exagerated S

Pet Dental Care
While we all know how to take care of our own teeth, caring for your pets teeth isn't so easy. You might be fortunate if you have a dog or cat tha loves to have his teeth brushed, but more than likely you might have a dog like mine that has an iron jaw that will not open when a tooth brush is around. So what does that mean, your pet is doomed to plaque covered teeth?
No, there are options out there to help you keep your pets teeth gleaming. You will need to decide what works best for you and your pet. Toothbrushing can be the best option, but does require time on your part to do it for your pet, plus if your pet as of right now will not allow you to brush his teeth, this means to have to ease him into the process of toothbrushing.
- Introduce the toothpaste first. A small dab on the end of your finger for him to sniff and lick (most pet
toothpastes gee in a beef flavor.)
- You can wrap a soft cloth around your finger with toothpaste on it and rub that along his teeth and if this works
you can keep this method or move up to trying a toothbrush. Use a size that works best for your pets size, do not
use a large toothbrush on a small dog.
(DO NOT USE HUMAN TOOTHPASTE ON YOUR DOG -your toothpaste is not edible)
If you find this doesn't work, or you just don't have the time, there are many products for you to choose from.
- One of the more popular options are chew treats that remove plaque and tartar.
There is a problem that this will not reach all parts of the teeth and plaque can still build up. But it's better
to remove some plaque than no plaque at all.
- Going to the Dentist is a great option. Of course your pets dentist will also be his vet, and not all vets provide this
service, but more than likely if your vet does not provide dental cleaning, you will be able to find one near you.
You will have to consider the costs, and how stressful of a situation this will be for your pet. Vet visits can be
stressful in any situation, this might not be ideal for older dogs as they will usually be under anesthesia and older
dogs can suffer from geplications. Best to try and keep plaque under control on a daily basis rather than just try
one big clean up at the vets office.
- Dental toys. You can also find toys that are meant to remove plaque as your dog chews on it. Again the problem
would be the same at the chew treats that they are not able to reach all parts of the teeth and plaque will still build
up.
- NEW products. There is a huge variety of products now that are just drops or oral rinses that help control the plaque
build up. Depending on the product you use, you will find that they do different jobs inside your pets mouth, from
killing germs that cause bad breath, to "hiding" bad breat, or preventing the build up of plaque. These offer an easier
method of dental care on your part, but you must ensure you use a quality product to get any results and use as
directed.
Caring for your pets teeth is important as all the dental health problems you have, your pet can also have. Cavities, bleeding gums, etc. Another important note: I get this all the time from new puppy owners, "My puppy is losing his teeth, what is going on? Is he sick?" No, it's normal, just like children losing their baby teeth, your pup will lose his puppy teeth, so his adult teeth can gee in. This can be normal, around 4-5 months of age. Problem can occur in that your puppy might get his adult teeth and not lose his puppy teeth. We see this in our chihuahuas, your vet can go ahead and simply remove that extra row of teeth.
Pet Dental care can seem like a lot of work, or overwhelming when you look at all the options out there. Find what best works for you and your pet and you should have a long healthy dental life together.

KEN HOLT Mysteries - Basic Info, Titles and Photos
A basic guide to the Ken Holt Mystery Stories including title list (US and UK editions), publication formats, and illustrative photos.The Ken Holt books were authored under the pseudonym Bruce Campbell and published by Grosset and Dunlap (GD) between1949 and1963. Unlike a lot of GD series books which had multiple authors, Samuel and Beryl Epstein wrote the entire series. The Epsteins were talented writers and gave these books consistency and high quality writing. The Holt series is one of the best, only being topped (slightly) by the Rick Brant series.The books chronicle the adventures of Ken Holt and Sandy Allen. Ken is the son of the famed news reporter Richard Holt, Global News' star correspondent. Ken shares his father's flair for investigative reporting. Meanwhile, Sandy is a whiz photographer. Sandy's family owns the Brentwood Advance, a local weekly paper, for which both boys work. They often sell stories to Global News as well. Their adventures take place all over the globe, from New Jersey to Europe! While trying to avoid trouble, they always manage to land right in the middle of exciting mysteries and have to use their wits (and some brawn) to get out!The books debuted in the US in 1949 and new stories came out until 1963. All but the last title were issued first in hardcover editions with dust jackets featuring full color art. The last title was first issued as a picture cover book, also with full color art.(Picture 1 showing a US edition hardcover dust jacket and picture cover version for geparison.) There appear to be 2 formats for the dust jacketed editions. The first four volumes were first published in a tan cover (1949-1950), and then the cover switched to a greyish tan tweed material for reprints of 1-4, and first printings of 5-17 (plus reprintings). The books have Ken's logo on the front cover with title on the spine.(Picture 2 showing US (left) and UK (right) hardcover editions.)The eighteenth and last story was first issued as a picture cover volume. It seems that only volumes 1-4, 6 and 15 were also re-issued in picture cover format starting around 1962-1963, using their original artwork. (Why the other titles were not re-formatted, I do not know.) The picture covers have the original artwork on the front, and then an orangish-red cover for the spine and rear cover. The spine features a logo with Ken's picture, while the back cover has the title list, a simple line drawing and series blurb. The orange color is very vulnerable to sun fading sadly.The books have a plain frontis drawing. The eps are either a dark green and white drawing of a cabin in a storm for most volumes, while the last two or three have a black and white line drawing of art from the Hangman's Inn story. This seems to hold true regardless of whether the book is in hardcover or picture cover format.(Picture 3 showing the two end pages designs.)Like most GD series, there are multiple printings of most of the titles. Since GD did not change copyright dates or indicate subsequent printings, you can not determine printing date or first editions by the copyright date. Rather, you have to rely on the story lists, and if the book lists to itself. If it does, then it is probably a first edition. You can gepare the binding types as well to try and establish printing dates.World Distributors in the UK picked up the series and published them for UK distribution, which included areas outside the UK itself. These were under agreement with G
