Jodi has been well respected as an educator in the grooming industry for many years. She is one of the top pet stylists in the world winning multiple titles included World Grand Champion and Best American Groomer. She is here to share her knowledge in this extraordinary book.With over 190 breeds recognized by the American Kennel Club along with individual breed-specific grooming instructions, it can become very overwhelming for new groomers to retain the information. Straight to the Point is the solution to learning about pattern lines, which simplifies the learning process. Whether the patterns are set tight or left more natural, the patterns are set in the same fashion. Once a groomer understands basic patterns he or she will be able to groom any breed with ease.The dogs pictured in this book are top winning show dogs presenting the correct profile according to their breed standards. Jodi chose to illustrate this way for several reasons. First, a show dog presents an excellent representation of the breed and how it should be groomed per the breed standard. Second, the reader will be able to see the realistic depth and dimensions of the coat. Last, it will give the reader a vision of the pattern in a realistic view and will be a great reference source when grooming each breed.Once the groomer understands correct pattern placement, it can easily be applied to pet trims. A pet dog does not have to be groomed using show techniques, i.e., hand stripping, to present the proper breed profile. With proper pattern placement and techniques described in this text, the groomer will be able to present a well-balanced, well-blended pet trim to the pet owner.

From HGTV and the Food Network to Keeping Up With the Kardashians, television is preoccupied with the pursuit and exhibition of lifestyle. Lifestyle TV analyzes a burgeoning array of lifestyle formats on network and cable channels, from how-to and advice programs to hybrid reality entertainment built around the cultivation of the self as project, the ethics of everyday life, the mediation of style and taste, the regulation of health and the body, and the performance of identity and "difference." Ouellette situates these formats historically, arguing that the lifestyling of television ultimately signals more than the television industry's turn to cost-cutting formats, niche markets, and specialized demographics. Rather, Ouellette argues that the surge of reality programming devoted to the achievement and display of lifestyle practices and choices must also be situated within broader socio-historical changes in capitalist democracies.

In this revelational book of self-discovery, Clinical Psychologist Dr. Bita introduces the concept of Lifestyle Amnesia, a state of mind and being that deprives one from experiencing beauty. According to Dr. Bita, the vast majority of humans suffer from this condition, a state of unawareness she says functions on autopilot. Dr. Bita defines another kind of beauty aside from physical beauty, which she calls beauty in its experiential form. This is the beauty of sensual and mindful experiences. In conjunction, our mind and our senses are the keys to experiencing beautiful aspects of everyday life. The author explains that this beauty is not superficial, but it can be obtained when one embraces a conscious state of near total awareness of the present. The reader is encouraged to identify the signs of Lifestyle Amnesia and is provided helpful, practical tips to conquer it. Furthermore, the impact of parental Lifestyle Amnesia on children and teens is given special attention. Dr. Bita is the founder and clinical director of a world-renowned clinical network, Dr. Bita's Network (DBN). Her network includes many clinics and spans Canada. Dr. Bita has made numerous scientific contributions, most famously on that of the psychological effects of immigration. Following the fall of the Soviet Union and the Berlin Wall, Western Europe experienced an influx of immigrants; Dr. Bita has helped thousands of those immigrants settle and integrate, thanks to her study. Today she continues to do so, in Canada. Publisher's website: http: //sbpra.com/DrBita

The rise of blogs and social media provide a public platform for people to share information online. This trend has facilitated an industry of self-appointed ‘lifestyle gurus’ who have become instrumental in the management of intimacy and social relations. Advice on health, wealth creation, relationships and well-being is rising to challenge the authority of experts and professionals. Pitched as ‘authentic’, ‘accessible’ and ‘outside of the system’, this information has produced an unprecedented sense of empowerment and sharing. However, new problems have arisen in its wake. In Lifestyle Gurus, Baker and Rojek explore how authority and influence are achieved online. They trace the rise of lifestyle influencers in the digital age, relating this development to the erosion of trust in the expert-professional power bloc. The moral contradictions of lifestyle websites are richly explored, demonstrating how these technologies encourage a preoccupation with the very commercial and corporate hierarchies they seek to challenge. A timely account of how lifestyle issues are being packaged and transacted in a wired-up world, this book is important reading for students and scholars of media, communication, sociology and related disciplines.
