Best Friends by Malcolm Riordan, DVM
As shown in last month's Best Friends (Amnesty for Millions and Millions of Community Cats), cat population control in the USA has — with exceptions — failed to meet its goals. Important too is that those goals have been based on myth and unsubstantiated assumptions.

Beyond the Badge by Richard Hannibal
Firefighters live with heat, dust, and smoke. It is part of their life. When one dies in the line of duty it causes us to pause a moment in our lives. But, when 19 are killed at one time, it is forever embedded in our memory and reminds us of the constant peril our firefighters selflessly face protecting us.

They were part of the Wildland Fire Division of the Prescott Fire Department. Read More
Dear Abe by George Zidbeck
RR from Central CA writes:

Swelling is a common, yet rarely diagnosed, underlying cause of much physical discomfort. It is not something that gets photographed in X-rays, MRI's or CAT scans and as such, remains an invisible, untreated culprit. Unresolved swelling can lead to serious issues in the joints as well as in the digestive organs, and can severely damage the brain. The effects of swelling on different parts of the body is a huge topic with many ramifications, so for the purpose of this article I'm going to stick with swelling in the joints, which is something I have dealt with often in my 30 years of practice.
