Portrait of a Salesgirl 32 Davenport road 12-22 McMurrich st. Toronto, Ontario, Canada Moriyama & Teshima Architects' Studio More & fuller version of article see www.grovecanada.biz , the page called Newspaper, first article... excerpt:(rough) STATEMENT OF CULTURAL HERITAGE VALUE OR INTEREST: The Property as stated above: 1)Is really unique insofar as it is an early example of slanty atrium windows which allow daily sun work light instead of needing electricity, plus the slantiness means the sunroof won't leak 'cause the precipitation runs off instead of creating pressure cause seals to burst...(see back of studio windows) 2)The pointy triangular roof vector shaped means that when the snow blows on the roof it doesn't gather in the middle...

]]> Fri Jul 17 2009 Bengal Cat stuff & some related health issues... http://grovecanada.fotopic.net/c1724579.html Sunday 12 July 2009:

Joseph was the one who told me about rubbing cooking oil on the fur of your cat- they lick it off & it makes them poo...This saved B'Elanna when she ate a bunch of Greenies & they got stuck inside in a mushy spongey pile & couldn't poo...Takes a day or so to work...Also works for wheat gluten corrupted food that is causing constipation...(Note: coconut oil made Jadzia barf, so stick to extra virgin olive oil or something more normal...) Letter to the NCFA...( a thank you letter 4 years after they helped us)... Our two lady bengals are both over 4 years old now...(I know it seems silly to register a cattery for only two ladies, but I didn't want to spay them & wanted to wait till they turned 6 (like in the old days) to see if they wanted a litter or not... Both have been taking Balance from Phytopet since each turned 8 months old when they started first heat cycle(I get it from Swallow Healthy Diet in England , a case a year...) in all their wet food, & it keeps them out of heat... Feliway sprayed everywhere at the beginning kept the younger one alive, while the older one (different litters) tried to bengal bully her... I bathe them around once a month- convinced that people's allergies to cats are just allergies to dirt...If only everyone bathed their cats...(they might not give them away...) They are still eating probably too much chicken breast & not enough cat food- but the cat food here still has melamine issues, & I don't trust it... Taurine powder has been excellent, especially for the younger lady to audibly purr, which I think is a sign of a healthy heart... After an early bit of a fiasco at a nail cutting salon, it has been decided that both ladies will just chew off & trim their own nails- which they do often, though not as often as the self-cleaning-licking themselves schedule... B'Elanna & Jadzia, a silver & a gold, have made our lives so meaningful, especially since we don't have children...& thanks to organizations like the NCFA we were able to keep them intact (we registered & joined several cat organizations in order to be able to choose our bengals' destinies better), which has been so great insofar as their personalities & health are so incredibly active & vibrant as whole cats...(we are not really planning kittens, just wanted to see if normal people could keep intact bengals as pets without losing their minds...) As a note...My father was a neuro-ophthalmologist & I inherited his love of medicine...Having the ladies around has enabled me to scrutinise the evolution of cancers & formulate theories- while researching herbs to take them out of heat, I came across studies of progesterones with warnings of ovarian cysts as side effect- this most clear correlation allowed me to realise how women were getting cancers- from birth control! Once I realised birth control (progesterone) was the culprit in female (& male by osmosis) cancers, I hunted for two things...One, something to eradicate ovarian cysts, & two, something to eradicate progesterone birth control from the body... I found, Dr. Reckeweg R38(right ovary) & R39(for the left ovary), which you drink, & around 48 hours later, cysts just fall out when you go to the bathroom...I also found a product named HearAll(yes, it's a hearing product) from NaturalCare sold by a company named SmartBomb, which is a capsule, & it detoxifies your body from progesterone...(buying product that has sat for too long on a shelf in both cases reduces efficacity...) Though we got our bengal cats because we needed company, we learned a tremendous amount... I am sharing this information as a thank you & because I know so many others like myself, need this information... Please feel free to use this letter in your newsletter... Sari Grove P.s. Yesterday I took 8 or 9 HearAll capsules...Today the phone rang while I was typing an email to a city councillor...For some reason, I flipped, thinking the government office was calling to say stop sending emails...My heart raced & I felt trembly...Turns out it was a Honda car salesman...After, I examined this fight or flight reaction...I hadn't felt this fear thing since before I went on birth control 12 years ago...The HearAll removes progesterone from your body, which tends to gather in your adrenal gland, causing adrenal failure if you overdose or teratogenically if your mom took it before you were conceived & altered your fetal development (aids is aquired immune deficiency syndrome which is adrenal gland collapse-see the connection?)...So, though I didn't have aids, my adrenals were popping back, meaning this detoxifiction method is working...Possibly could we reverse aids? How about that? references: Natural Solutions, the owner, at Sherway gardens in Mississauga, introduced me to Dr. Reckeweg R38 & R39...I am forever grateful... I, as an artist, was looking for a heavy metal detox, because paint often has incidental lead & other metals that are dangerous...So I Googled heavy metal detox & a list came up of the best things for that...The top three were Gingko Biloba, Periwinkle (vinpocetine), & Butcher's Broom...So I Googled just those top three to see if a product already existed that contained all three (me being cheap & lazy & all...) HearAll from NaturalCare at SmartBomb.com came up...I ordered some...I took it...2 days later, I had a weird huge cyst on my femoral artery inside my upper left thigh...I squeezed it & ohmigosh gross, the Depo-Provera (a yellowish glutinous smelly substance) popped out-unchanged after 12 years inside my body...I knew it was still there, but had given up trying to get it out...I guess lead & heavy metals are similar in density & quality to progesterone, cause this sure was coming out...After that, I reordered HearALL, then again, then I called the company, then I wrote blog posts, now I am writing here again... GroveCanada 37 posts Aug 10, 2009; 07:53pm Re: Bengal cats, ovarian cysts, progesterone removal...aids... http://petcomfortzone.com/ Feliway for Cats for territoriality or fear, D.A.P. for Dogs... spray on a bandana for dogs, put around neck before going outside... GroveCanada 37 posts Aug 10, 2009; 07:55pm Re: Bengal cats, ovarian cysts, progesterone removal...aids... http://www.swallowhealthydiet.com Swallow healthy Diet carried two sizes of Balance from Phytopet (we get 12 bottles of the big one per bengal cat per year), helps to keep your cat or dog out of heat, also great for aggression control, singing, peeing due to heat cycle, humping people's legs... GroveCanada 37 posts Aug 10, 2009; 07:59pm Re: Bengal cats, ovarian cysts, progesterone removal...aids... Name: Natural Solutions Street: Sherway Gardens Mall Toronto, on M3H6A7- Phone: (416) 695-1374 Natural Solutions in Sherway Gardens orders Dr. Reckeweg R38 & R39 (to get rid of painful ovarian cysts) for you custom from Germany, wait two weeks & return to pick up...Start with 3 bottles of each side for the next three months...about 25 dollars a bottle...works... GroveCanada 37 posts Aug 10, 2009; 08:07pm Re: Bengal cats, ovarian cysts, progesterone removal...aids... Http://www.smartbomb.com SmartBomb carries the freshest batch of HearAll from NaturalCare, pay the few dollars more for freshness-it really makes a difference in efficacy...Removes heavy metals & as a side effect removes progesterone birth control, which by the way Does NOT excrete naturally- even 12 years later, it just stays in your body forever if you don't TRY to get rid of it...If you have EVER taken birth control be aware of this...Birth control does not leave your body naturally- & causes all sorts of health problems because of this fact...Removing progesterone may help to prevent, well, you know...about 25 dollars a bottle, though shipping can be pricier than most-still, the other companies that are cheaper have older batches & ship slow- I've tried that route...(for Canadians you will get charged a fee to bring this across the border- it is not yet FDA approved, so it gets sent to a Canada Customs office where they open a bottle, cut open a capsule, make sure its not cyanide, then reseal it, then leave you with a 16 dollar bill when it gets delivered...Still shut the f-ck up! Don't ruin it for the rest of us...This stuff is like gold & women who have birth control swimming around in their ovaries get ovarian cysts, ovarian cancer, breast cancer, brain cancer, tumours- DO NOT COMPLAIN, please...Pay what you owe & shut up...No one else is making anything I have seen that can do this unique function, & even then I discovered it by accident...For less than a hundred dollars for 3 bottles you could save your own life...Ok, so no bitching about price ladies- cause then they will stop shipping to Canada & we can all just die of chemo or radiation or varicose veins or ovarian or breast cancer or even aids...Ok I'm done...) Digger, Muffin, Kayla... Both lady bengals get regular baths...I don't think people are allergic to cats, I think people are allergic to dirt! I mean if you Never bathed, I would give you up too...I tell people about to give away their beloved pets because their child has allergies to BATHE the cat several times...Bathe the child too...Clean the house...Febreze everything...Give the child a children's dose Claritin for the moment...Then, regular baths...How to: Fill a bathtub halfway with warm soapy water...(we use bathgel whatever we are using)...Find cat...Pickup quickly with two hands at either side of stomach so biting or scratching cannot happen...Wal quickly to bathtub, put cat in, release one hand & wash privates & back, fast pass over face last, then with both hands pull out...Whole thing should be faster than eating a slice of pizza...If your cat still is not mad, drop in a towel , roll up, & towel off...If cat is pissed let it run off all wet... For territoriality when bringing home a new bengal...Spray one whole entire bottle of FELIWAY (available at Petsmart)...spray Feliway everywhere!!! Wait 24 hours...Bengals will stop killing each other... Buddy Belts work on Bengals for taking them for walks...be forewarned though, bengals can get out of ANYTHING... Google Feline Funhouse to find the people that make this tent-can't remember their name offhand sorry...Our bengals eat chopped chicken breast, Orijen dry food, Almo chicken in a can, sometime B.G. Merrick 100% chicken & a few other things, but we haven't found a cat food, a wet version that is pure of the wheat gluten corruption problem, so, we will post when things get better...Taurine powder has been very useful in helping Jadzia to make audible purrs...I feel that audible purring is a sign of a healthy heart, & Taurine powder is excellent for strengthening hearts...If you are worried about your Bengal's heart health, I think Taurine powder is just a terrific easy way to ameliorate their hearts...Bengals need more taurine than normal cats, so supplementing whta they get in cat food is not a bad idea...Personally, I believe that all conditions can be improved, so don't let anyone tell you your cat will be like something forever- get on the internet & try & fix it...You can always improve health conditions...My Dad was a neuro-ophthalmological surgeon, & I grew up believing... If you have ovarian cysts, you will know cause sex hurts, you can rid of them by getting Dr. Reckeweg R38 & R39 ...One is for the right ovary, one for the left...at around 25.00 a bottle available online easily, you drink it & the cysts just fall out around 48 hours later...(hey, yeast infection medication is over the counter, why not ovarian cyst removal...)(p.s. most women who have taken any form of birth control ever have a tendency to form ovarian cysts- it is really common & No they don't show up on ultrasounds because they are usually too small...so if you have pain during intercourse but your ultrasounds came up clear do not rest- you probably have ovarian cysts...Read about the symptoms...) seriously, Dr. reckeweg R38 R39 ...(I only wish I could have told Corretta King 10 years ago...she died of ovarian cysts...) Both Jadzia & B'Elanna have gotten Balance from Phytopet in their daily wet food for almost 4 years...starting around at 8 months old when they went into their first heat...As long as they eat their food everyday, they get their balance, which contains Vitex ChasteBerry an herbal progesterone which keeps heat cycles down...(a few other ingredients like dandelion, passion flower & sepia help)...We order from Swallow Healthy Diet .com , in England about once a year, the 100ml bottles...(it works)... Another sort of embarassing thing BUT...If you or your spouse has ever taken birth control, you should know this, it doesn't excrete naturally...Recently I found something that has a side effect of removing birth control from your body...The three main ingredients are known heavy metal detoxifiers, but also seem to work on birth control...Gingko Biloba, Vinpocetine([periwinkle, butcher's broom)plus strong B class vitamins...If you have felt fat & sluggish & miserable & no sex drive ever since taking birth control, you are not alone...Or if you want to get pregnant, but are afraid the birth control is still in your body...Or if you have adrenal gland problems, or failure, which is caused by excessive amounts of birth control, often inherited if your mother took it before you were born...What I found was a product called HEARALL from Natural Care available from a company called SMARTBOMB.com ...It really helps...I am sharing this 'cause it took me twelve years to find something to detoxify from birth control...That's a long time... Sorry to put this here if you are squeamish But... If you are a lady who gets her period get a DIVA cup...You buy it once, then re-use it every month...No more tampons, & other stuff...No more sending hubby to the drugstore at midnight...This works so well, I haven't used tampons in two years...Bonus: You can pee or more at the mall & you don't have to take it out or change anything...or carry anything in your purse...You can sleep or bathe or swim in it too...AWESOME...(available usually at health food stores...)

So...864 plus 432 equals...1296 or $1,296.00 That is what you should pay before taxes & shipping & packaging... That way, the artist gives the gallery one third commission, 432 dollars & then they go home with the 864 dollars for their troubles... Now, this is a bare bones MINIMUM price...Below one dollar a square inch you may be cutting into the artist's livelihood... (You might assume that the artist's profit is half that number, the 432 again- meaning they are spending 432 on materials, which may include their artist website, c.v. statement & any other supporting materials, studio rent or whatever else in costs went into painting that painting...) So...My paintings are going for $1,200.00 Canadian currency right now...Based on the minimum one dollar per square inch plus gallery commission...This price is considerably lower than my prices in 2001, about half...Though it is higher than I have had to sell for in the past decade, economy & all...I am hoping things will pick-up & return to a more normal number...In the interim though, I am happy to have survived the storm & am grateful for all of my sales in these lean years...
