lIFE gIVES yOU lEMONS, uSE tHEM! 1. Removing rust from clothes: Put lemon juice on the rust stain and then sprinkle cream of tartar onto the top of the juice. Pat it in with a finger and let it sit on the stain until the rust is gone. The citric acid will take the rust right away. Some stains are tougher than others, but 1530 minutes should work just fine. Wash in Washing Machine. 2. Getting stains out of Tupperware: Squeeze some lemon juice in the container and then add some baking soda. Use the lemon as a cleaning tool and work it in. If the stains are bad, let it sit overnight before scrubbing the stains. 3. Remove Blackheads - Rub lemon juice over the areas that contain blackheads right before you go to bed. Rinse your face with cool water when you wake up. Repeat this every night until blackheads are dissolved and gone. (The citric acid helps naturally dissolve the oils that form blackheads in your skin!) 4. Dull, damaged hair will benefit from lemon juice! Combine 3/4 cup olive oil, 1/2 cup raw honey, and 3 tablespoons of lemon juice. 5. Use lemon juice to freshen your breath. Lemon has been used for years (mostly mixed with water to make lemon water), as a natural breath mint. The acidity in lemons, (although alkalizing), helps destroy bacteria in your mouth that gives you bad breath 6. Exfoliate Dead Skin Cells - Rub a cut lemon dipped into a half-teaspoon of sugar over your face for a few minutes. Do this every night to help remove accumulated dead skin cells and refresh your skin. 7. While ink is wet, apply Lemon Juice liberally to the spot, then wash the garment in normal cycle with regular detergent in cold water. 8. Use one cup Lemon Juice in the washer, for cleaner and fresher clothes. 9. For dry skin on feet. Apply Lemon Juice rinse, then massage with olive oil 10. To clean copper take a half of a lemon pour salt on it and rub on the copper area of the pot.

Six Mistakes You Are Making on Your Weight Loss Diet By: Andrew Porg There are six common mistakes most people make when trying to lose weight - I know because I made them too! Here are some great tips for avoiding these gaffes and achieving success on your weight loss diet plan. YOU ARE TRYING TO DO TOO MUCH TOO SOON Trying to go from Sedentary Slob to Super Dieter on a Monday morning? Not so smart. It is a surefire way to be back to the Twinkies by mid-day Wednesday. You can’t expect to undo years worth of damage overnight. If you typically eat “three square meals” a day, start out by adding a snack - either in the morning or the afternoon, then work your way to six small meals every 2-3 hours. This approach to fat loss is called kaizen, a Japanese philosophy that focuses on continuous improvement throughout all aspects of life. Making a small change once a day or once a week leads to a constant state of improvement. YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THE QUICK FIX I was convinced I had a Loch Ness Monster in my colon and that was making me fat! But the colon cleanser I purchased only left me with a very sore butt, some leafy-looking things in the toilet and not a single pound lost. Now I was convinced that I needed a deluxe fat burner - one that would melt away the fat while I sat on my butt doing nothing! After thousands of dollars and lots of false hope, I realized that the only way I was going to achieve the lean body that I desired was to come up with a solid nutrition and exercise plan, and to add supplements that were backed by solid science. YOU ARE LETTING OTHERS KNOCK YOU OFF-TRACK My family is full of enablers - they mean well, but they were not sensitive to the fact that I was trying to stay on track with my fat loss efforts. “C’mon a little bit won’t hurt you” or “you can start again tomorrow” was all it took to convince me that they were right. Within 30 minutes I had eaten myself stupid and undone all of the positive progress that I had spent the past week achieving. Let those around you know how important your fat loss efforts are and what it means to both you, and them, that you stay on track. YOU ARE NOT GETTING BACK “ON THE WAGON” IMMEDIATELY AFTER FALLING OFF I would usually fall off my diet toward the end of any given week. It was at that point that I rationalized that, since I was “off the wagon” I would wait until Monday to get started again!

This probably won’t come as a big shock, but science now has proven that weekends can wreak havoc on your waistline. That was the conclusion of Washington University researchers, who found that even people on strict diet and exercise programs lose weight more slowly than expected because they eat more on weekends.

Andrew Porg

The verdict: People don’t need a holiday to eat more; they tend to do it every weekend because human lifestyle patterns can be very different. There were two key takeaways for me from this: 1.The best time to get back “on the wagon” was at your next meal - do not wait until you’ve done more damage. 2. Do not let the weekends be different than any other day stick with your plan whether it is a Saturday or a Wednesday YOU ARE TRYING TO BE PERFECT EVERY DAY Life is not perfect - and your diet plan shouldn’t be either. You can’t expect yourself to follow your program to the letter every second of every day until you reach your goal. If you do, you are setting yourself up for failure. That is why you need to apply the 90/10 rule to your nutrition and exercise. The 90/10 rule is very simple - if you are on your program 90% of the time, then you will not be hurt by the 10% of the time you are not. Your weight loss diet should have a minimum of 5 meals per day, with 6 meals as your goal. Following the 90/10 rule with 6 meals a day (or 42 meals a week) means that you have 4 meals a week where you can go off your program without halting progress, as long as those meals are reasonable. Same rules apply to exercise. Let’s say your schedule permits you to work out 4 days per week. So in a month, you have 16 workouts - and following the 90/10 rule, you can miss 1 or 2 workouts without derailing yourself. However, you should save your “skips” for times when you really need to skip - like a poor night’s sleep, illness, or hectic travel schedule. YOU ARE NOT SETTING REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS It took you your entire life to get to this point, and you expect to reverse all of the damage in 3 weeks? That is what a lot of diet products would like you to believe. You absolutely MUST set goals, but they MUST be realistic. What is realistic? 1-2 pounds of fat per week is a good expectation. The more you have to lose, the higher you can set your expectation. But if you are approaching double-digits with your expectations, you will ultimately fail.

Hey everyone...this is Buttercup. She’s a very pretty 2 year old pitbull mix waiting patiently for someone to rescue her. When she first meets people she can be a little shy and anxious but once she warms up she does take comfort from human contact.

Brutus is a very large American Bulldog boy who is 5 years old and weighs in at 85lbs. He is very sweet and confident in himself but isn’t overbearing. He does have some manners but has a tendency to jump up on people when excited but will drop down when told to.

Hi, my name is Garth and I’m a lonesome 5 year old pitbull who weighs about 60lbs. I’ve been sitting in the kennel now for almost 5 months waiting for someone to give me a second chance.

Hey everyone, my name is Winky and I’m a really lovable, sweet guy. I love being around people and I can’t get enough attention and affection. One of my favorite past times is going for walks. I really enjoy being outside in the fresh air where I can take in all of the sights and sounds as I walk down the street with my owner.

Another of our “Charlie’s Angels” kittens, this little female is a bundle of fun and energy. She’s constantly climbing the shelves in her cage, or batting one of her siblings in an attempt to engage in a bit of a romp.

Lottie will make you laugh - guaranteed! As soon as you approach her cage, she greets you with a friendly, high-picthed meow and promptly rolls over on her back and waves her paws at you.

McGraw is a perfect name for this older, buff and white male. He’s big, friendly, but a bit independent. If you’re looking for a cat who will sit and enjoy a good ear rub, but who then is perfectly happy to go off by himself to sit in the sun, then stop by and see McGraw.

Poor Streetz ... given her name, you’d expect a gal with some moxie, but this poor little girl is actually a bit on the shy side. She was surrendered by her previous owner, and is so confused to find herself at the Shelter.

All pets at this shelter are up-to-date on shots and will be altered and micro-chipped upon adoption and before leaving this facility. As part of our adoption process, we must have proof of residency, homeowners must show proof of ownership, landlord approval is required for renters before an adoption can be approved, a renter’s policy that states you are allowed to have a dog or cat on the premises will be required. Adoption Fees vary.
