EWING Aware that people who have fallen on hard times dont always have enough food for their pets, Lisa Iszard co-founded The Pet Food Pantry, volunteering her time and resources to make sure that people dont lose their faithful companions during a particularly difficult time in their lives.
During stressful situations, what you want to come home to is a companion, said Iszard, who started the pantry with her husband, Jonathan. Some of these people dont have anyone else but their pets.
The Iszards own Tumbleweed Eddies, a natural pet treat company they opened in Ewing three years ago.
Local animal control officers have reported a 35 percent increase in pet abandonment...

PlayStation 3 and the rest of companys gaming division have yet to make consumers recognize their value, DFC Intelligence analyst David Cole says.
Speaking to Industry Gamers in an interview published yesterday, Cole said the PlayStation 3 has proven incredibly robust and comes with a great content library. However, he cautioned that not all consumers seem to have gotten the word, and Sony is in need of consumer excitement.
The key challenge in 2012 is to bring back consumer excitement around the Sony and PlayStation brand, Cole said of the consumer electronics giant.
But is Coles argument fair or accurate? Based on sales figures, it appears quite clear that...

Last year was an extraordinary year in the world of sport, and if anything, 2012 looks all set to top it in terms of action, excitement, and the human drama that can lift our spirits and crush our souls in the blink of an eye.
When Santa asked me what I wanted for Christmas, I could only reply, “more of the same please. Make next year as action-packed and as fun-filled as 2011, and you can put me down for feeding the reindeer next December.”
Santa, I am sure, will not disappoint.
Firstly, we can look ahead to what promises to be an enthralling climax to the Barclays Premier League
season.
With the two Manchester clubs slugging it out at the top of the table,...

Sure, we still will have the NFL playoffs and, of course, the Super Bowl, but nothing measures up to college football in terms of passion, excitement and rivalries.
So, while there certainly is controversy surrounding the participants in Monday nights title tilt, enjoy it because it is the last time well see action on the college gridiron for the next eight months. But what a college football season it has been.
The season started out with Oklahoma in the top spot and finished...

You’ve probably taken notice to the strange phenomenon taking over snowboarding…the use of ski poles. Well, one ski pole, anyway; with a GoPro mounted on the end of it. Kids are filming themselves these days. It’s cool having the Internet as an outlet. Or has the Internet become cooler because of all the POV footage circulating it? Guys like Tim Humphreys have gone above and beyond being just a rider and gained tons of followers by making edits of themselves and posting them on YouTube for kids to eat up.
When you think about it, it’s nuts what you get out of these unobtrusive packages. From the GoPro’s scaled-down mini camera silhouette to the Contour’s...

This year should go down as the most innovative in the history of the PV industry despite or perhaps because of the turmoil it has experienced simply based on the number of new products the industry launched in 2011 across the entire supply chain. PV-Tech was able to review over 120 products in our lsquo;Product Review format this year, though many others were covered in detail as news stories, which poses a slight dilemma when trawling through Google Analytics to provide an accurate assessment of readers interest in new products!
However, in keeping with tradition and due to the immense interest each year in this review, we have contained the rankings to the Product...
