Near Death Experiences: Paranormal Phenomena or a Trick of The Mind?
April 10th, 2016 CEO 
By Kristi O’Toole
We’ve all heard someone say, ‘My life flashed before my eyes’, almost always at the time of a traumatic experience. Let’s define traumatic. Perhaps a person is drowning but is rescued just in time, or you swerve your car away from danger at the last second. But what if a person isn’t that lucky? What if they can’t steer to safety and are involved in a horrific accident and could not live without intervention, or they’re not pulled from the water in time and need resuscitation? That would be a near death experience.
Mega Riffs Vol. 5: “No More Tears”
April 10th, 2016 CEO 
By Ian Murphy
Ok! Been away for a bit with the “Mega Riff” series. Now it’s back, and boy do we have a monster today: “No More Tears” by Ozzy Osbourne. The guitar player on this tune is none other than Zakk “I look like Odin with a guitar” Wylde. This one is special because not only does it contain the heaviest riff in Ozzy’s hallowed canon of songs, it also has an all time great solo. Wylde was the boy prodigy only a few short years prior to this 1991 classic when he debuted on 1988’s No Rest For the Wicked. The Z-Man was only 21 when that one came out and he gave us a taste of future mega riffs with songs like “Breaking All the Rules” and “Crazy Babies”. Having matured a bit since his debut, Wylde comes into his own on “No More Tears”. No longer a young gunslinger, Zakk has now earned “Guitar God” status.
Fur Babies Corner: Dealing with Heartworms in Dogs
April 10th, 2016 CEO 
By Cyndi Crossland
Working in animal rescue we work with dogs who generally have not had veterinary care. These dogs are malnourished and sometimes very sick. Their medical care can sometimes use any spare funds the rescue has. One common disease we see in dogs is heartworms. This disease is brutal on dogs, and can quickly take their lives.
The heart of the dog actually fills with living worms. Worms that reproduce and quickly fill the heart and lungs, smothering the dog to death. The worms can break off and cause a “clot” in the main arteries and kill the dog at any given time.

“Puerto Ricans In Paris” is a story of friendship, loyalty and a life-changing trip to Paris. Detectives Luis Lopez and Eddie Garcia are childhood best friends, brother-in-laws, and partners in the New York Police Department Luxury Goods Recovery Unit tasked with hunting down Canal Street’s infamous bootleggers. With Luis as the slick, self-styled “brains” of the operation and Eddie as the shy, quiet “muscle,” they’ve been running through the streets of the Lower East side in search of fake Louis Vuitton for 20 years – long enough for them to be the best in the business.
While their work mostly keeps them below 14th Street, a random visit from a celebrated French designer and her business partner set in motion a sequence of events that take them on a wild goose chase through the streets of Paris – from fashion parties to hipster nightclubs – in search of a stolen handbag (and delicious French macarons).
