GREEN THINGS (continued):
Midnight Rambler By Samantha Mazzotta
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I have an 8-year-old Schnauzer, “Fixer,” who has recently started getting into things during the night, after I’m in bed. He has torn open bags, taken things from my purse and gotten into my grandkids’ arts and crafts box. Now I have to be careful not to leave anything around. We have not changed the way we are doing things. Could this be his age? -- Phyllis H., Rochester, N.Y.
something happen while you were asleep, perhaps, that may have caused Fixer to become anxious? Next, make some changes in his day and night routine that will help him feel more secure when you’re asleep. Extend his evening walk a bit and add some basic obedience training and play time to the evening schedule. When it’s your bedtime, lead Fixer over to his bedding and have him lie down and stay. Check back in five minutes, then in 30; if he’s still in his bed, praise him and give him a little treat. If he’s not in his bed, lead him back and repeat. Place a favorite chew toy next to him.
DEAR PHYLLIS: I’d be remiss if I didn’t recommend you take him to the veterinarian first thing, just to make sure there is no underlying health issue causing his sudden behavioral change.
At first, Fixer will hop right back out once he thinks you’re asleep and proceed with his nightly rummaging. Be patient. It will take some time for him to associate this routine with the idea that you want him to stay there at night. Meantime, keep placing people things out of reach. Put doggie toys in their place.
If everything checks out, tackle the problem from two angles. First, even though you haven’t changed his daily schedule, something subtle may have changed in the house or yard. Pay attention to nighttime happenings. Is there some new noise outside? Did

Facial rejuvenation. Can it really be achieved without plastic surgery? OH YES IT CAN! But before we talk about repair, let’s talk about preventing further skin damage. Warm weather is coming and many of us will be spending more time outside. It is crucial to apply a sunscreen everyday with a minimum SPF 15, even when the weather is overcast - especially when the weather is overcast. If you are out for an extended period of time, make sure to wear a hat and/or other protective clothing.

• The color green is considered sacred in the Islam religion as a symbol of vegetation and new life. Folklore states that Muhammad was especially fond of the color and wore a green cloak and turban. According to the Koran, inhabitants of Paradise will dress in fine garments of green silk. Several Islamic nations incorporate the color into their flags; in fact, the flag of Libya is simply a green field, with no other colors, designs or details.
• That pigment in plants and algae that makes them green is known as chlorophyll, and it is necessary for the process of photosynthesis. Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight and uses that energy to synthesize carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water. Leaves change color in the fall because the chlorophyll in the leaves begins to decay.
• A gentleman in China who wants to express his love for his sweetheart will give her a gift of jade. In this culture, this gemstone indicates eternity, and is given to convey deep eternal love, similar to the symbol of gold and diamonds in the Western world.

against evil spirits. Legend has it that St. Patrick used the little three-leafed plant to illustrate the doctrine of the Holy Trinity — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — to the Irish people, demonstrating how each leaf was separate yet joined together in a single stem. Most Irish brides include shamrocks in their bridal bouquet as well as in the groom’s boutonniere.
• At the end of the yellow brick road in the Land of Oz is the Emerald City, home of the famous Wizard. In L. Frank Baum’s legendary novel, all those entering the Emerald City were made to wear green-tinted eyeglasses that made everything look green, although the City was “no more green than any other city.”
• Can you imagine the Wicked Witch of the West without her trademark green makeup in the 1939 film, “The Wizard of Oz”? The makeup, which took two hours every day to apply, achieved its distinctive color from a dangerous chemical, copper oxide, and actress Margaret Hamilton had to exercise extreme caution when eating meals while wearing it, so as not to ingest any. It became even more dangerous when Hamilton was making her spectacular exit from Munchkinland via an elevator in a trap door on the set. When the burst of real fire came up, her makeup ignited, causing painful burns that required six weeks to heal.
