Hey @NYSDOT the #wintercatolympics are over yet we’re all doing high level #slalom on NY AVE in Halesite to avoid breaking an axle or suffering a blowout.

So glad our new vacuum chosen specifically to replace previous model that is touted for dealing with pet hair & high usage, has a shortened cord. Yes, I’d love to plug & unplug the vacuum 7 times and painfully lengthen the time spent on the task.

The story of the three border collies that were trained to run like the wind to bring new life to Chilean forest devastated by wildfires, wearing backpacks releasing native plant seeds.

One of the worst wildfire season in Chile's history ravaged more than 1.4 million acres early in 2017, destroying nearly 1,500 homes and killing at least 11 people. More than a dozen countries sent fire-fighting specialists to help battle the dozens of destructive blazes. When the fires were finally extinguished, the landscape was a charred wasteland.

A few months later, a unique team was brought in to help restore the damaged ecosystem. They have four legs and a penchant for careening at high speeds through the forest.

Border collies Das, Summer and Olivia were outfitted with special backpacks brimming with seeds. Then they were sent on a mission, let loose to race through the ruined forests. As they bounded and darted, their packs streamed a trickle of seeds. The hope was that these seeds would take root and sprout, bringing the forest slowly back to life one tree at a time.

Their owner, Francisca Torres started the project with the dogs in March 2017, returning regularly to the forest over the next six months.

The border collies covered as many as 18 miles in a day and distributed more than 20 pounds of seeds. Their hard work paid off.

@nature_org your article about 5 great places to explore outside of NYC includes Uplands Farm of Cold Spring Harbor labs but incorrectly lists Greenlawn as the train stop, it should be Cold Spring Harbor.

Puppy raisers range from families with kids to empty-nesters, full-time workers to retirees, and people with pets to those who've never had one. But they all have one thing in common: The desire to raise a puppy that will go on to help someone lead a life of greater independence.

What I tell my kids vs. what I mean:

Oh, interesting = You’re still talking, huh?

I’ll time you = Please leave me alone for a few precious seconds

Do you understand why what you did was wrong? = A little worried you’re a sociopath

Maybe = No

Maybe later = Extended release no
