?Make Mine Chocolate? Campaign Sweetens Easter Holiday for Bunnies
With Easter quickly approaching, bunny experts embrace "Make Mine Chocolate" campaign to bring attention to bunny welfare. The Columbus House Rabbit Society initiated the "Make Mine Chocolate" campaign in 2002 to spread compassionate education intended to save thousands of bunnies from abandonment, relinquishment, and other ill fates.
Arizona's Premier Rabbit Experts, Brambley Hedge Rabbit Rescue [BHHR] supports the nationwide campaign and has included the "Make Mine Chocolate" slogan at local adoption events, in education materials and on volunteer t-shirts. BHHR Director
Kim Dezelon personally supports this campaign. As a bunny expert she knows first hand the dangers of gifting a pet bunny to a child for Easter.
Kim Dezelon emphasizes; "contrary to a popular myth children and bunnies are often not a good combination", she adds; "children like to hold pets and bunnies do not usually like being held, making them unsuitable companions for small children", she adds, "they can also exhibit natural fight or flight reactions when scared, such as scratching or biting".More Myths;
Another popular myth is that bunnies are easy to care for. The reality is they are very delicate animals requiring specialized veterinary, unique diets care and ongoing maintenance which is often unsuitable or overwhelming for a child or busy family. More myths include the belief that bunnies can live in a backyard. This is not true. Bunnies are very susceptible to heat and dehydration and can easily become prey to AZ's native predators, stray dogs and cats and can even drown in backyard swimming pools if left unattended.
Dezelon states "People often realize after getting a bunny that they are a huge responsibility". This regret can often have devastating consequences. Pet rabbits are often "set free" in neighborhoods and become victims of many environmental factors. If they are fortunate enough to be rescued, they often require extensive veterinary care and long term rehabilitation. BHHR urges parents to honor bunnies in other ways with stuffed animals, books or as the slogan implies, with chocolate bunnies.
"Make Mine Chocolate" Pin;
As with any great charitable or social cause, a special chocolate bunny pin and ribbon has been designed to support the "Make Mine Chocolate" message [photograph available on website]The chocolate bunny shaped pin appeals to jewelry lovers and bunny lovers and includes a delicate ribbon for aesthetic value. The special pin reminds parents and grandparents that chocolate bunnies are a more responsible, compassionate gift for children and grandchildren this Easter. The pins are available for a $5.00 donation at the Brambley Hedge Rabbit Rescue Website located at www.bhrabbitrescue.org. Brambley Hedge Rabbit Rescue Organization is maintaining a moratorium on bunny adoptions from March 12th through April 2nd to discourage people from adopting bunnies as Easter presents. More information about this moratorium and other interesting organization facts can be found at the group's website or by contacting Kim Dezelon directly.

Researching Glyconutritionals (a.k.a. Glyconutrients)?
The Greek word "Glyco" means, "Sugar". Most people think of sugar as being bad for you. However, there are actually TWO kinds of sugars. One is the refined or "extracellular" sugars which have been long associated with human disease. The other sugars are "intracellular" which can be found in fruits and vegetables and provide the body with nutrition it needs.
These sugars, also known as complex carbohydrates, have been studied for years. However, only recently have we begun discovering their purpose in the body. An increasing number of scientists believe that certain carbohydrates represent the next frontier in the search for non-toxic treatments for various degenerative conditions. Even though we have just begun to scratch the surface in understanding the full potential of these carbohydrates, the research being reported in just the last decade has ignited a new level of hope and optimism with some of the world's leading immunologists. One of the world's most renowned veterinary...

If You are sick of losing the same
weight over and over, and feeling like a failure because your last "diet" didn't work, try these tips to not only lose weight, but lose it for good. I have watched hundreds of
clients over the
years and almost without exception, those that lose their weight once and for all have these six basic habits as a part of their lives. 1. Keep a food diaryFor at least five days and up to a week, keep a pen and paper handy and write down everything you eat, how much,
where and when you ate it and who you ate with. try to write it down as you eat it.
Most people find that when they try to remember
everything at the end of the day, they leave something out. I have also had clients tell me that they didn't eat something because they knew they were going to have to write it down. Be completely honest with yourself. You don't need to show anyone the results, but most will be very surprised by them. Particular environments...

Are You Building Your Own Cistern?
You're looking at one star in the middle of a dark sky...The star stands still while you fly up to it. As you get closer you see someone standing there holding an object. You can't see what it is so you move even closer. It's a cup that is almost vase shaped.You watch as the person pours some water into the top of it. -Before the person even finishes pouring the water is flowing out parts of the sides and the bottom!You watch the person get upset and go for more water to fill the cup.You're still watching but you slowly start to float back away from the star into space.
All of the sudden you stop and watch water float right by the star. It just continues to flow right on past this person that is still upset over the holes in the container...Do you realize that we humans are too good at fighting to do more to fix a problem -and yet sometimes we miss the flow of the best.God knew this and had it written for us in Jeremiah 2:13: For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken...

How Diet Influences Cancer Risk
Diet is a double edged sword. Improper diet increases the risk of cancer but a proper, well balanced diet reduces the cancer risk. Diet is one of the most important lifestyle factors and has been estimated to account for up to 80% of cancers of the large bowel, breast, and prostate. Diet affects the risk of many other cancers, including cancers of the lung, prostate, stomach, esophagus and pancreas.Prostate Cancer: High consumption of meat, especially red meat, substantially increases the risk of prostate cancer. Vegetables, especially cooked tomatoes, reduce the risk of prostate cancer.
In one clinical trial, the role of Vitamin E as a prostate cancer reducing factor was established. In this study there was a 32% decrease in prostate cancer incidence and 41% decrease in prostate cancer mortality in people receiving Vitamin E supplements when compared to controls. Breast Cancer: In Japan, people consume Tofu, a soya product. It contains isoflavones that moderate the estrogen receptors...

Do Cellulite Creams Actually Work?
No cellulite cream can counteract the effects of a sedentary lifestyle, for instance.
Neither can a cream magically restore circulation or drop excess weight from a body that does very little and takes in more than it needs.The best lotions, the most evolved lotions, cannot make up for diets composed of fast foods eaten on the run and deep fried fatty concoctions with little or no nutritional value.Neither can lotions reduce stress for a body rigid with it and stress is often an element in the problem of cellulite.
Stress does not have to be physical to have very physical effects.No lotion exists that can reverse genetic inheritances or balance hormones reliably.
These are all factors in the formation of cellulite.So, now that we are clear on exactly what cellulite creams cannot do, we can move on to what they may be useful for.
Now you have them in perspective you may be less likely to believe advertising that tells you that you needn't move off the...
