If you have an old t-shirt and a few wire hangers around the house, you have everything you need to make this tent for your cat in about ten minutes. Sure, you want your cat to have toys, but cat accessories aren’t cheap and they’ll just end up in an empty box anyways. Make your own.
Collapsible cups and bowls make drinking water on the go easier for you and your dog. You can buy them at the store, or you can just make some yourself with a little duct tape.
Tossing veggies with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then throwing them in a 400 degree Fahrenheit oven is often the go-to way to roast them, but lowering the temperature results in perfectly roasted veggies you won’t be able to stop eating.
If you’ve ever made brown butter, you’ve probably hovered watchfully over the stove, terrified of stepping away to come back to a nearly-black mess. Luckily, even if this “disaster” does befall you, this past-brown butter has its uses.
Can openers can get pretty grimy over time, which is unsanitary but also keeps the opener from operating its best. Fortunately, you can fix the problem with a little wax paper.
Dealing with a frozen-over car in the morning can be a pain, but at least you can make sure your wipers are ready to go. And all you need is a pair of old socks.
WASHINGTON — A 75-pound dog that fell into Lake Thoreau in Reston, Virginia is safe after it was rescued by the Fairfax County Fire & Rescue Department Wednesday morning.
The dog went through the thin ice on Turtle Pond Drive around 8:40 a.m.
Rescuers put on ice commander suits and waded into the water to get to the dog.
Within 10 minutes of receiving the call, the dog was safe.
Medics evaluated it on the scene before turning the uninjured pooch over to its owner.

WASHINGTON — The mares on the Assateague Island National Seashore are given contraceptives, but they don’t always work: The park says three horses are currently expecting.
The seashore revealed on Facebook that horses N2BHS (Carol’s Girl), N6BMT-F (Jojo) and N10T-J (Charmed) are expecting. It can’t be said for sure when the foals will be born, but the best guess is April, May or June. The horses gestate for about 11 months.
The contraceptive program began in 1994, when the horse population had grown to 170, more than the habitat could support, Ocean City Today reports. It’s about 90 to 95 percent effective, biologist Allison Turner says, and some horses are immune — including Carol’s Girl and Jojo, who have given birth before, Jojo just last year.
The population is currently at 88, Turner tells Ocean City Today.
But in response to its own genetic study from 2005, the park is reducing the use of contraceptives — limiting it to younger mares, who, Turner says, need time to mature.
Other than that, “In two to three years, we should see a big increase,” Turner says.

Gas prices have finally fallen below $2 per gallon where I live, but that’s still a fortune compared to what some motorists in Ohio encountered over the weekend. A computer glitch of some sort made the price at a Pilot Travel Center plummet as low as a few pennies, which attracted opportunistic shoppers. Then the Circle K across the street decided to keep up with their competitors by lowering their prices, too.
Was it all a publicity stunt? Some hackers with very small-time goals? All the travel center’s cashier could say was that there was a computer malfunction, and then the other store decided to keep up with its neighbor and competition.
“I just filled my gas tank up from dead empty for 26 cents,” one customer told TV station WTOL as he pumped gas. “I told her to put ten on it and she only gave me five bucks and now I need to go get my change. That’s too funny.” He could have given the cashier a dollar and still received change back.
This happened in the wee hours of Sunday morning, so not too many people were driving by to take advantage.
A writer at Cleveland.com did some historical research and found that the last time gas was that cheap locally was about 80 years ago. The actual average gas price this week near Toldedo is about $1.50.

Apple’s response is big, unambiguous and very, very public: CEO Tim Cook shared the statement as an open letter to their customers on Apple’s website.
The letter, from CEO Tim Cook, first makes it clear that Apple cooperates with law enforcement investigations as needed. “We were shocked and outraged by the deadly act of terrorism in San Bernardino last December,” Cook writes, which goes for pretty much everyone.
“The FBI asked us for help in the days following the attack, and we have worked hard to support the government’s efforts to solve this horrible crime. … When the FBI has requested data that’s in our possession, we have provided it. Apple complies with valid subpoenas and search warrants, as we have in the San Bernardino case. We have also made Apple engineers available to advise the FBI, and we’ve offered our best ideas on a number of investigative options at their disposal.”
But that, Cook makes clear, is as far as Apple is willing to go.
The problem, he writes, is not about this case or even about the FBI in general. “We have great respect for the professionals at the FBI, and we believe their intentions are good,” the letter says. “But now the U.S. government has asked us for something we simply do not have, and something we consider too dangerous to create. They have asked us to build a backdoor to the iPhone.”
Specifically, the issue surrounds the iPhone security feature that wipes a phone after ten incorrect tries to unlock it. That feature, which the phone’s late owner had enabled, is very helpful for users whose phones are stolen, because it protects their sensitive personal and financial data (which we collectively have LOTS of on our mobile devices) from crooks. But for law enforcement officials who want access to personal data for purposes of detective work, the feature is hugely frustrating.
Apple and the FBI have been going back and forth on the matter for some time. A week ago, the director of the FBI testified before Congress that his agency was as yet unable to access the phone in question. Yesterday, a judge in California signed an order requiring Apple to create the backdoor.
If Apple creates this software to permit the cracking of this one phone, Cook explains, all iPhone users will be at risk. “The FBI wants us to make a new version of the iPhone operating system, circumventing several important security features, and install it on an iPhone recovered during the investigation. In the wrong hands, this software — which does not exist today — would have the potential to unlock any iPhone in someone’s physical possession,” he writes.
Cook likens the code — which, again, Apple refuses to write — to a master key that would be impossible to keep safe. If the backdoor is made to exist, it will be used again. “The government is asking Apple to hack our own users and undermine decades of security advancements that protect our customers — including tens of millions of American citizens — from sophisticated hackers and cybercriminals,” Cook writes. “The same engineers who built strong encryption into the iPhone to protect our users would, ironically, be ordered to weaken those protections and make our users less safe.”
“No reasonable person would find that acceptable,” the letter adds.
Cook also writes that Apple practices what it preaches when it comes to encryption and protecting iOS users’ data. “We have even put that data out of our own reach,” he says, “because we believe the contents of your iPhone are none of our business.”

While Instagram may not have endured the same high-profile, embarrassing hacks that Twitter experienced in the past, the photo-sharing site is taking a page from the social media service — and other tech, networking, and retail companies — by enabling two-factor authentication for user accounts.
TechCrunch reports that Instagram began rolling out the added security measure to protect users’ personal information stored with the network and prevent ne’er-do-wells from commandeering their accounts.
The idea behind the protection is to ensure that the person trying to access an account is the rightful owner. To do so, the company will require users to produce two methods of identification when logging in – typically your password and a time-sensitive code or PIN sent to an authenticated phone number or email address in order to gain access to your account.
Under Instagram’s system users will receive an authentication code via text message to their phone after they enter their username and password on the site, TechCrunch reports. The code must then be entered to gain access to your account.
Two-factor authentication has long been utilized by consumers to protect a variety of online accounts like banks, email, Twitter, Amazon, and others.

Buying a go-kart or even a set of Power Wheels is a pretty big deal for many parents, as motorized vehicles for children can still cost a pretty penny, even in miniature. That much is true today, which I learned when the Arrow Smart-Kart made by Actev Motors caught my eye as a girl whipped it around a mini track at the convention center, a big ol’ grin on her face.
My 8 y.o self is jealous: Parents control speed, set geo limits for Arrow Smart-Kart w/connected app #toyfair2016 pic.twitter.com/0W899QnrqB
— Mary Beth Quirk (@marybethquirk) February 16, 2016
The electric mini car is targeted toward kids ages five to nine, and has a base price of $599, which can go up to $699 if a customer chooses a red or silver body kit instead of the standard black. It’s a not insignificant price tag — one that can go up easily if you choose from accessories like custom body kits, special driving cones, and “drifting wheel rings.” Yes, your child can drift.
But one big thing has changed from the days when parents might’ve worried that their kid could take that set of wheels into unsafe territory: the Arrow has its own onboard WiFi, which connects to an app on parents’ smartphones. From that app, parents can set the car’s maximum speed, which can go as high as 12 mph.
To prevent wayward drivers, parents can designate geo-fences to define the area the car must stick to. If the vehicle approaches that boundary, it won’t cross, and will instead shut off. Parents can also use an emergency stop button on the app to immediately halt the car. To prevent collisions, say, with a particularly annoying older sibling who is just begging to get his foot run over, there are also sensors on the vehicle that detect obstacles.
Each driver can have a profile as well, so that once their driving skills improve, parents can change their speed options. Which just means more practice time, something I would’ve given my entire collection of New Kids on the Block paraphernalia to have.
Something else has definitely changed: because the electric vehicles don’t make the sound of a traditional go-kart and its gas-powered engine, the Actev App also allows kids to download synthesized engine noises they can play while driving.
The Arrow Smart-Kart is available for pre-orders now, and is expected to ship in early Summer 2016, the company says.
Do you have a teen driver in your household and want to know every time they get a little overzealous with the accelerator? Or maybe you’re pretty sure your spouse’s frequent trips to “the office” are not so innocent? If so, then an upcoming update for Verizon’s “hum” in-car smart device might be just what you’re looking for.
The $15/month hum service was originally launched to collect vehicle diagnostics, connect users to roadside assistance, provide maintenance reminders. But this morning Verizon announced that it will be adding a slew of new features for the hum, including:
Boundary alerts: Lets you set up a boundary and receive alerts when your vehicle exits and enters the area. So if your kid promised he was just driving a mile away to Josh’s, you’ll know he’s lying when you get a message that your car crossed the boundary five miles away. Or maybe you and the spouse are enjoying some romantic private time because your teen is 20 miles away at some concert. That boundary alert telling you he’s on his way back home will give you time to clean up that mess you made in the kitchen trying to reenact that scene from 9-1/2 Weeks.
Speed alerts: While the hum doesn’t know the speed limit of every road your vehicles on, you will be able to set up maximum speed limits so that you get an alert — through the app, via email or text — whenever a driver crosses that threshold. So if your teen doesn’t need to drive on the interstate to get to school in the morning, there’s no reason for her to be driving 63 mph. This is also helpful in situations where you’ve handed over your vehicle for valet parking, so that things like this don’t happen:
Vehicle location: Even more precise than the geofencing of the boundary alerts, the hum will provide map-based tracking of your vehicle’s location, speed and travel direction.
Driving history: And just in case you missed all the alerts or your kid was savvy enough to change the account so that all the texts went to some other phone, the hum will provide “trip-based driving information to track driving efficiency, including duration, start and end times, idle times and max/avg. speeds.” It might not be enough to convict someone in court, but it could be enough to get them grounded or sleeping on the couch for a month.
“Family members now have the opportunity to remain connected to their teenage drivers, elderly parents and others on the road, putting them in the passenger seat, even if they’re miles away,” reads a statement from a Verizon executive. “Parents can now sleep well at night knowing their precious cargo is safe on the road.”
Or rather, parents can get mad as hell at night when they get a text alert that their 16-year-old just drove 90 mph to visit that college student they’re secretly dating 50 miles away.
Two months after Gillette sued Dollar Shave Club, claiming the competitor had violated its intellectual property, the subscription razor service has filed a countersuit, saying it hasn’t infringed on any of its rival’s patents.
Gillette accused Dollar Shave Club of swiping a patent to reduce wear and tear on razor blades. But according to a counterclaim filed in U.S. District Court in Delaware, Dollar Shave Club denies doing any such thing, reports the Los Angeles Times.
“Dollar Shave Club does not infringe on any valid and enforceable claim of the Gillette patent,” the company said. “We will vigorously defend ourselves and our three million members against these meritless claims.
“We prefer to have the Dollar Shave Club experience speak for itself in the marketplace,” the company added, “and we are not intimidated by Gillette’s attempts to thwart competition with litigation.”
Procter & Gamble, which owns Gillette, says in a statement that the suit is meritless, and that it will protect its innovation “and the scientists behind it.”
“We invest heavily in innovation. In fact, that’s how Gillette started – through improving the shaving experience. And that’s why we’re so serious about defending our technology.”
Gillette is trying to elbow its way into an increasingly crowded online sales market for razors: while it has about a 60% chunk of the retail market right now, that market is shrinking, as lumbersexuals and their beards have become trendy. Gillette’s online subscription service (launched last in 2015, ostensibly in response to Dollar Shave Club’s existence) only makes up about a fifth of the online market.

When you make a living driving people around, you’re likely to run into a bad customer or two, from a driver being attacked by a passenger to a rider commandeering and then crashing the ride-hailing vehicle. A Chicago Uber driver experienced a not-so-great night on the town last week, when someone attacked him and his vehicle.
ABC 11 reports that police arrested a 19-year-old woman after she allegedly hit an Uber driver and his car with a bat.
Police say the incident occurred when the Uber driver parked his car in an alley waiting for a fare to show up.
When a van driving through the same alley was unable to maneuver around the car, the occupants allegedly began arguing with the driver and spat inside the vehicle.
The woman then exited the van and allegedly struck the car’s passenger side mirror with a bat, police tell ABC 11.
The van then attempted to leave the scene, at which point the Uber driver tried to hold on to the vehicle. At that point, police claim the woman exited the van and hit the driver in the head with the bat before leaving the scene.
Authorities pulled over the van a short time later and the woman was arrested, charged with aggravated battery and criminal damage. The driver was hospitalized for head injuries, police say.

WASHINGTON — The driver of a livestock trailer that overturned on Interstate 81 during Monday’s snowstorm has been charged with reckless driving.
Derek Crabtree, 22, of Dante, Virginia, was driving the tractor trailer loaded with 33 cattle when it ran off the side of the interstate and overturned in the median about 5:30 a.m. Efforts to round up six cows that escaped the damaged trailer and the investigation closed a stretch of the interstate for much of the day, according to Virginia State Police.
As of 4 p.m., state troopers were still trying round up the last of the stray cattle and northbound traffic was being diverted around the crash investigation, near Interstate 66 in Frederick County.
Six cows did not survive the crash and veterinarians were assessing others that were injured — a process that continued well into the afternoon, state police said.
Crabtree was treated for minor injuries at the scene.

WASHINGTON — A pair of bald eagles who are nesting at the U.S. National Arboretum in D.C., will be busy tending to their future family, after two eggs were laid over the weekend.
The American Eagle Foundation says the eagles, nicknamed “Mr. President” and “The First Lady,” have been nesting at the National Arboretum since October 2014. Last summer, the pair successfully raised one healthy eaglet.
Viewers from around the world have been watching their pair via two live-streaming high-definition video cameras. The eagles’ nest is atop a Tulip Poplar tree, surrounded by the Arboretum’s azalea collection.
“Live-streaming cameras that feature our nation’s symbol in our nation’s capital … you can’t get much more American than that,” American Eagle Foundation Founder and President Al Cerere said in a news release. “It’s a great addition to our Nest Cam Program and we hope it brings joy to a lot of people.”
“The First Lady” laid the first egg Feb. 10, and a second on Valentine’s Day. If all goes well, the eggs should hatch in mid-March.
The eagle-cam system at the National Arboretum is entirely solar powered by a system designed and built by students and staff from Alfred State College, School of Applied Technologies.

WASHINGTON — A spokesman for D.C. Fire and EMS says it will start using private ambulances next month.
The temporary contract begins in 30 days with American Medical Response.
Employment postings on AMR’s website show the emergency response organization is now hiring EMTs for “DC 911 EMS operations.”
The positions that pay $20.41 an hour are for employees responding to both emergency and nonemergency calls in the District.
The move to include a third party ambulance service to supplement D.C. resources is part of the reason outgoing medical director for D.C. Fire and EMS, Jullette Saussy, resigned. Saussy wanted to improve the District staff’s provision of medical care before adding staff and equipment.
Saussy resigned in recent weeks after seven months on the job.
Mayor Muriel Bowser has said she’s committed to reforming the department and improving patient outcomes.

As always, though, you have to pay attention to the fine print, and there’s a lot of it. Like Verizon, AT&T has increased their offer to “up to $650,” and that’s calculated based on how nice of a phone you have and how much you still owe on it.
“The value of your AT&T Promotion Visa Prepaid Card will be determined by the amount of the Early Termination Fee or device payment plan balance noted on your final bill,” AT&T explains, “minus the Buyback value of your trade-in, up to $650.” Let’s say that you still owe $400 on your phone, and AT&T determines the trade-in value on your phone to be $300. That means AT&T will issue you a bill credit or prepaid debit card of $100, which you can only use to make payments to AT&T.
Is that for you? Maybe, if you really dislike your carrier and live in an area with strong AT&T coverage. Engadget notes that you can combine this deal with a buy one, get one free deal on Samsung Galaxy devices. Both offers end on March 31.

What caused the outage? What can customers do? Comcast didn’t have a lot to say, probably because they were still busy answering phone calls and tweets, but their statement blames a “temporary network interruption” that took out service. While the DownDetector heat map remains moderately hot, most users are reporting that their services have been restored, if a bit slow.
Comcast’s official explanation was simply this:
We have repaired the temporary network interruption that impacted some of our services this morning. Our engineers continue to work on this issue and almost all services have already been restored. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused our customers.

Since 2012, federal law has required airlines in the U.S. to post the phone number (202-366-2220) and the URL for the DOT’s Aviation Consumer Protection Division, along with the airline’s email address, phone number, and mailing address for filing complaints.
While this law is well-intentioned, it’s also incredibly vague — saying only that the airline must publish is somewhere on its “Internet Web site.”
We couldn’t find the information listed — let alone clearly linked — on any of the homepages for the country’s biggest airlines.
Subsequent searches for terms like “aviation consumer protection” turned up well-hidden pages like this one on JetBlue.com, buried deep in the Help section. Over at United.com, the DOT complaint info is not in the “Customer Commitment” section, or even in the contract of carriage, but on the not-at-all-common-sense location of the website’s “Terms, Conditions, and Legal Notices.”
Likewise, while Delta has a page for filing a “complaint/compliment,” that page does not link to the DOT complaint info. Instead, the only apparent place you’ll find the DOT contact info is hidden in the “Air Carrier Access Act” drop-down section of Delta’s “Travelers With Disabilities” page.
Congresswoman Janice Hahn recently told the L.A. Times that her staff did similar searches on airline websites and turned up equally bizarre results, like Spirit burying the DOT complaint info on page 48 of its contract of carriage, or American putting it under the heading of “Consumer Service Plan.”
“I searched for the hotline number myself on different airline websites and couldn’t find it anywhere,” Hahn told the Times. “If I can’t find it, I am assuming many other fliers can’t find it either, and the data demonstrates that.”
The lawmaker recently introduced an amendment to the current FAA funding bill that would tweak the existing law to add the requirement that the DOT information must be posted “in a prominent
place on the homepage” of the airline.
“Consumers should know that we have their backs,” said Rep. Hahn in a statement. “We already have a system in place, let’s just enforce it.”
The amendment made it through the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee last week. So now it’s a game of wait-and-see to find out if airline-backed lawmakers try to rip out this minor but decidedly pro-consumer requirement.
The wheels of cheese justice turn very slowly. This month, though, the president of a Pennsylvania company that made hard grated cheeses will plead guilty and face her punishment, which could be as great as a year in prison and a $100,000 fine.
Her company is accused of selling imitation grated cheese as real, and of passing off cheaper cheeses like cheddar and Swiss as the more expensive Parmesan and Romano.
“Specifically, your product labels declare that the products are parmesan cheese or romano cheese, but they are in fact a mixture of trimmings of various cheeses and other ingredients,” the Food and Drug Administration told the company in a 2013 warning letter. “In addition, your parmesan cheese products do not contain any parmesan cheese.”
Cellulose powder is a common additive to grated hard cheeses, for example: our colleagues down the hall at Consumer Reports noted its presence in Kraft products marketed as “natural cheese.” The amount found in grated cheeses varies: about 2-4% is a decent amount to prevent cheese from caking, but tests by Bloomberg Business turned up grated cheeses that were as much as 8.8% cellulose.
One crusading cheesemaker says that he has found cans of the grated stuff on the market that only contain about 40% cheese at all. The FDA claims that the parmesan without parmesan from Castle Foods was sold at Target and Walmart stores, but Target denies that the troubled former cheese-maker was ever a vendor of theirs.

Multiple news reports out of the area state that six Walmart trucks, along with two other vehicles, were shot at while driving along a six-mile stretch of U.S. 75 just north of Tulsa.
The shootings apparently occurred over the span of two days, with three trucks hit Sunday night and three others shot at late Monday, early Tuesday morning.
Thankfully, no one was injured. In fact, some of the damage was not even noticed until after the trucks had arrived at the distribution centers.

How to Keep Your Black Clothes Looking Their Best [Consumer Reports]
The New York Times recently looked at this problem, specifically the same-day delivery options like Postmates, Amazon Prime Now, UberRush and Google Express. It’s one thing when your delivery of toilet paper is part of a UPS route, and another when someone has been dispatched from the Amazon warehouse specifically to bring you that case of toilet paper.
How much fuel does that use, and how much extra pollution does it create? It’s hard to say exactly whether shoppers going to the mall or delivery drivers going to their customers pollute more, but one study in Delaware showed that the growth of online shopping meant more trucks circulating in the area, and more pollution.
Deliveries on foot or on bicycle work in some very dense urban areas, but that doesn’t solve the problem of packaging. Amazon has made progress in the last decade, since we “Stupid Shipping Gang” posts–the Times says that the retailer has taken advice that came in from their shipping feedback form seriously.

According to the CEO of Visa during a recent earnings call, only about 17% of the company’s transactions use the more secure system. The terminals themselves are out there but not activated at some retailers, and others haven’t installed them at all. Why is that?
The liability shift, when credit card fraud became the responsibility of retailers instead of banks if they didn’t have their chip card systems running, already happened on October 1, 2015. If a customer’s bank hasn’t issued them a chip card yet, then the bank is liable for the cost of any fraud that happens. Yet shoppers who have the cards don’t have many places to use them.
While it’s good that customers using the new cards didn’t slow down holiday season checkouts, as some experts anticipated, experts and law enforcement would rather see the more secure cards used more often.
Security reporter Brian Krebs, the person who usually breaks any stories about large credit card breaches, ATM skimmers, and other terrifying bits of mundane cybercrime, wondered about this, since it’s now four and a half months past the liability shift deadline, and local merchants were still asking him to swipe payment cards. Even on payment terminals that had chip readers.
Lots of smaller businesses don’t even have terminals installed to accept chip card payments, though. Why wouldn’t they want to? Payments consultant Allen Weinberg speculates that it’s because small, local businesses:
Those are all plausible enough reasons. Yet Weinberg pointed out to Krebs that for most merchants, it will take only one really bad instance of fraud or malicious chargeback for them to “get religion,” as he says, and upgrade their terminals. Then we’ll all be able to use our cards with computer chips in them and join the rest of the world in the 21st century.
