JUST HELP ANIMALS & HELP THOSE WHO ARE HELPING ANIMALS! Yours for Animals, Nilesh Bhanage ………………………………………… 2.

SOME NOTABLE FIELD CALLS: # On 16th of July, a Dombivli resident Mrs. Madhavi Devang called us regarding that a kitten that had climbed high atop of tree. As PAWS was unable to help is this situation, the Fire Brigade had to be contacted but the kitten came down by itself, as a crowd gathered under the tree. # On 17th PAWS attended a call from its volunteer Prasad Phadke, whose Society was threatening to oust three strays who were sterilized and residing in the premise for a long time. As they were harmless and acting as watch dogs, PAWS secretary Nilesh went and vaccinated them and also wrote a strong letter to society secretary stating laws in the favor of the animals. The matter was peacefully resolved . # On 25th of July, PAWS office received a call from volunteer Sharmila Manjrekar, that Thane Municipal Dog van (TMC) was a catching sterilized dog for an unknown reason. PAWS immediately contacted TMC and got the dog back in same van. Volunteer Sharmila gave in writing to TMC that the dog was harmless. It was then released back to its original locality. # On 27th of July, PAWS received a call from person that a stray dog was found bleeding on the railway track near Platform no.5 . The dog's leg was caught under the running train. PAWS volunteer Kunal Chheda immediately swung into action and along with his friend carried the dog to nearest hospital where he is recuperating now. …………………………………………. 4.

VEGAN RECIPE: *Orange Ginger Baked Tofu * Did you know that your skin can synthesize vitamin D if exposed to enough sunlight on a regular basis? Take advantage of the sunlight this summer, but be sure to protect yourself against sunburns. If you won't be spending much time outdoors, you can fortify your diet with vitamin D. Many products, especially vegetarian foods, contain this essential vitamin. Enjoy a healthy treat from the tropics and make this Orange Ginger Baked Tofu recipe with fortified OJ. Ingredients: 1 lb. extra firm tofu, drained & pressed Marinade: 2 tsp. ginger, 3 cloves garlic, minced 2 tsp. finely grated orange zest 1/4 cup orange juice 1/4 cup dry white wine 1/4 cup pure maple syrup 4 tsp. soy sauce 2 tsp. veg oil Directions: Preheat oven to 375 F while preparing the marinade. Combine all ingredients for the marinade in a small bowl and whisk vigorously. Cut the tofu into 8 slices crosswise; pour 1/2 marinade into the baking dish and saturate tofu slices; pour the other half of marinade over the tofu; let sit 10 minutes. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes; remove cover and flip tofu pieces over; cook 15 more minutes uncovered (Tip: to give the tofu more chewiness, place in the broiler for 2 minutes on each side). Garnish with some thin slices of orange, and serve with vegetables. ************************** 9. CHANCE TO HELP ANIMALS: Your small contribution would make a big difference!
