Nutrition and Cats!

January 17th, 2012

Now what do we feed our cats? Here is a subject that has so many pros and cons I could fill up 10 to 15 pages and still not come to a convincing conclusion. It boils down to commercial processed food versus natural foods plus the question do we feed our pets vitamins and supplements, too.

What really is natural pet food? The first thing that comes to mind is raw, unadulterated food. Actually mice and birds with maybe a squirrel or two thrown in are natural foods for a cat. Eating any one of these critters would

Food and water bowls. Your pet will be using this for years, so do not scrimp. Plastic may be cheap, but remember that it can get quite difficult to clean as it ages and tends to be discolored. Go for stainless steel if you can. They last longer

Corporate Blogging Alphabet – What Is It?

Celebrate Like You Mean It

January 10th, 2012

I was traveling around St. Patrick’s Day and while I ate dinner and enjoyed some Irish music I saw a promotional T-shirt for Guinness beer announcing the holiday. It was a very stylish T-shirt, but it was the tagline that I loved the most. It read:

Celebrate like you mean it.

I haven’t been able to get that phrase out of my mind since.

Organizational leaders think about celebrations a lot. Maybe not the type Guinness was thinking about with that tagline, but they definitely think about them. They think about what, when, where and how to celebrate.

Preparing For and Making a Career Change

December 28th, 2011

In my youth, I observed that, in England at least, most people wanted to get out of their jobs. Their “career”, whatever it was, only existed to get a regular income. The millions of people who did the football pools, and later the lottery, were a testimony to the “let me out of here” dreams of the majority. “Win the pools, and retire.”

Times may have changed in general, but the fact that most people are not content with their jobs has remained unchanged. Career, employer or job change, or early retirement, are in the minds of tens

November 11th, 2011

One of the Christmas traditions in our house, every bit as traditional as the Christmas turkey and the falling asleep on the sofa at six pm, is going through the Radio Times with a pink highlighter and seeing how many different versions of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol we can find.

Do Not Push Self to Drive Faster

November 10th, 2011

I thought that the best drivers are the ones who compete in car racing and drag racing competitions wherein drivers are executing the highest driving speed. But when I grew older that perception changed, especially when I enrolled to a driving school in Singapore. The driving instructor told me nothing else is important than to stay safe in the road.
