• Cat Food Substitute a Hit with Felines

For C.A.L., Auburn, looking for a product similar to Tender Vittles cat food (Sun Spots inquiry, April 11), Wendy Tremblay at Pet Quarters in Auburn has discovered the following method which works well for her cats. Find a hard cat food that your cat will enjoy. Separate one portion of the cat food and place on top of a piece of bread in a resealable baggy. Seal the bag, let it sit for about two days and the food should be of a similar consistency to Tender Vittles. Tremblay has tried this in small portions, as she feeds them to her cat as treats. You may need to experiment with the portion size. Good Luck! Dear Sun Spots: Enjoy your column! We have been bothered with a lot of ladybugs. We have an older house and an attic, and that may be where they come from. - No Name, Rumford.

• Supplements Aren't Food Substitute

Dear Dr. Gott: I am an 80-year-old woman who weighed 369 pounds at age 42. I lost most of the weight with Weight Watchers but couldn't maintain it with their program. Then I found Overeaters Anonymous 22 years ago and have maintained my current weight of 115 pounds for around 15 years. My problem now is that I find the amount of food my sponsor wants me to eat is too much.

• Pelosi: Compassion No Substitute for Food, Water, Shelter, a Job, Education for Children

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2 /U.S. Newswire/ -- House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi held a news conference in the Capitol this afternoon after the House held a special session to pass a $10.5 billion emergency supplemental spending bill for disaster relief for victims of Hurricane Katrina. Below are a transcript of her opening statement and a partial transcript of the question and answer session: Our prayers and thoughts and condolences are with so many of America's families who have lost their loved ones or who have loved ones missing in this terrible tragedy. So many Americans have had their lives just completely turned upside down in terms of losing their shelter, their place of business, the education of their children, and the prospects for good health.

• Better Than an Ordinary Candy Bar, That's Luna?

Luna Bars. Chocolate Dipped Coconut, Chocolate Chunk, Mint Chocolate Chip Protein, and Chocolate Protein. $1.39 per 1.6- to 1.69-ounce bar. Bonnie: Luna just added four new flavors to its line of bars containing "women-specific" nutrients. The company's press materials make them sound like a vitamin pill, proclaiming that the bars "provide women more options to get the nutrients they need, like vitamin D, calcium, folic acid and iron. Get real, Luna. Energy bars are no substitute for real food. But they are an alternative to candy bars -- especially the tasty Chocolate Dipped Coconut -- that women might keep in their car, gym bag or pocketbook for a time when they're hungry and have no time or ability to get anything else. (Like when on a plane!)

• Forget the Foundations

Foundations were created in the early 20th century by multimillionaire robber barons, such as John D. Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie, to evade corporate and estate taxes. By the early '6os, foundations were growing at a rate of 1,200 annually, and financial magazines were touting them as tax-shelter mechanisms. The problem, as Christine E. Ahn argues in "Democratizing American Philanthropy," is that foundations divert money away from the collective tax base. Monies that would have become public funds are instead private, controlled by trustees who benefit from the status quo and who are more interested in supporting milquetoast reformers than social-justice organizations. Due in part to this lack of tax dollars, federal and state funding for education and Healthcare has shrunk, shiftin...
