This season's strawberries are ready for picking.
The berries are out a little later this year but Jack Aman of Aman Family Farms in Maysville said his crop looks good and he has plenty of berries waiting for people ready for the favorite spring time treat.
"They are better than what we had last year and there are plenty of them. All we need is the pickers," he said.
Cold weather contributed to a later season but Aman said the cool temperatures that have persisted can be a benefit now that the berries are out.
"It's still cool at night, which helps the strawberries; prolongs their life," Aman said.
But he's now counting on good picking weather to bring out the crowd.
"We've only had one or two days attractive to people to come out. They like to make it a family tradition," he said of the picking season.
This weekend could be a good time.
The forecast calls for a mix or sun and clouds with temperatures from high 60s to low 70s.
Last year the area started seeing berries at the end of March, an early season after a mild winter and warm temperatures early in the spring.
It's been a later season this year and somewhat of a reduction in yield but the quality of the berries is good.
"I encourage people to get out there and pick. They are a good quality," said Lisa Rayburn, an agriculture agent with the N.C. Cooperative Extension office in Onslow County.
Some strawberry growers have been impacted by plants purchased from a location in Canada that had a virus that affected plant maturity.
Nicole Sanchez, area commercial horticulture agent for Onslow, Jones, Craven, Lenoir and Greene counties, said there may be a small number of growers in the region affected. They may see a reduced number of berries but other growers have had a strong harvest, helping to compensate for any shortage.
"There's probably an overall impact on quantity of berries somewhat, but there are still plenty of them," Sanchez said.
And there's no problem with the berries that are there.
Mike Lowe of Mike's Farm in Beulaville said their plants came from California this year and they are seeing one of the better crops they've had.
"We've got a lot of berries ready to be picked; an abundance of them this year," he said.
Lowe said now's good weather for picking.
"It's good berry-picking weather. You start getting into June and it gets too hot for the people and the plants," he said.
The strawberry season typically runs through May.
Mike's Farm, Aman Family Farms and Southwest Strawberry Farm let you pick your own or you can purchase the berries from their stands.
Southwest Strawberry Farm could not be reached for comment but has a Facebook page with updates on strawberry availability.
Fresh strawberries have also been available at the Onslow County Farmers Market.
Go to the N.C. Department of Agriculture website at ncfarmfresh.com to find strawberry growers in your area.

Needmore Community Outreach, Women of Mission and Gospel Temple M.B. Church are hosting their eighth year of Spring Break Day. Saturday, March 16 will be a day for young people age 0 ŌĆō 14, to enjoy Christ-centered activities. The event is free. There will be jumpers, games, prizes, an egg hunt and lunch and snacks will be provided. Children do need to bring their own Easter baskets as these will not be furnished. Children ages nine and under should be accompanied by a parent. Spring Break Day will begin at 10 a.m. and end at 5 p.m. Keynote speaker is Minister Stanley Mangum of The Church House of Refuge and Family Worship Center. The event is the brainchild of Elder Shelia Fair.
ŌĆ£I was living in Memphis in 2002, when the Lord put the tent revivals in my heart,ŌĆØ explained Fair. ŌĆ£The revivals were instrumental in saving souls. We are commissioned to be about our FatherŌĆÖs business. Having Spring Break Day to reach young people in our community is a huge part of that business. We had over 300 children come out last year and we expect many more to come this year. Children have been saved during spring break. We give that glory to Jesus.ŌĆØ
Gospel Temple is known for its yearly Thanksgiving Feast and opening the doors to the whole community but they are also involved with Needmore Community Outreach with the Spring Break Day. Both groups are proud to be part of a fun filled day to let children know that they are important and loved. The Great Commission is not just a Biblical term for Fair and Bishop Quincy Patterson, its a way of life.
ŌĆ£We are always looking to expand the ministry and reach as many children as possible for Christ,ŌĆØ said Patterson. ŌĆ£We let young people know they are loved. We want to celebrate them. We want to show them that the power of love is greater than the love of power. GodŌĆÖs love is unconditional. We want them to come to the knowledge of His saving grace.ŌĆØ
Gospel Temple M.B. Church and the Needmore Community Outreach Women of Mission are looking forward to seeing all the children from West Point and Clay County come to have fun and learn about a God who loves them.

Comments about Avid G2 Clean Sweep Rotor 2011:
Well built and excellent design. Bolt it up and ride. It gets better with break in.
Comments about Avid G2 Clean Sweep Rotor 2011:
Very very strong rotor. Perfect for my Elixir brake. It doesn't make any sounds or noise when I brake, not like other rotors set. So little effort to stop at high speed or downhill at all.
Comments about Avid G2 Clean Sweep Rotor 2011:
These are a great set of rotors and brakes. They perform very well. These rotors respond to all types of braking from a very firm pull on the brake levers to a lite pull as if you just need to slow slightly in a turn.
Comments about Avid G2 Clean Sweep Rotor 2011:
Good rotors, they work good with the avid breaks and they hold up well. They are strong and light. Nice 6" rotor

About UNDP in Timor-Leste
Since 1999, UNDP has been supporting the Timorese people move from post-conflict recovery towards sustainable development. UNDP's Country Programme Action Plan (2009-2013), developed in partnership with and approved by the Timor-Leste government, aims to build the foundations for lasting peace, stability and security.
The Standard Basic Assistance Agreement (SBAA), signed at independence on 20 May 2002, provided an early framework for UNDP's work in the country as well as the ongoing legal basis for UNDP's operations in Timor-Leste. (Lee versaun Tetum iha ne'e)
What do we want to accomplish?
UNDP recognises that the Timor-Leste government is primarily responsible for the national development agenda. The current Country Programme Action Plan (CPAP) 2009-2013 was designed in partnership with state institutions, responding to the key priorities of the Government of Timor-Leste over the period.
UNDP Timor-Leste's four programme areas, and individual projects within each of those portfolios, are designed around the following goals: fostering a culture of democratic governance, reducing poverty, managing environmental resources and preventing and resolving conflicts.
The CPAP also reflects the primary goals of the United Nations Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) 2009-2013.
What are our results?
Peaceful elections were held in 2012 under the auspices of the country's two national electoral bodies and with sustained support from UNDP. National institutions, non-existent in 1999, are upholding the country's young democracy. UNDP works closely with the country's Human Rights and Justice Ombudsman, the Parliament, justice-sector institutions and the Anti-Corruption Commission, helping these organisations meet both current goals and plan for longer-term outcomes.
With UNDP backing, peace-building projects, disaster reduction management projects and community dialogue and facilitation initiatives have supported various national partners, including the Ministry of Social Solidarity, as they work to strengthen social cohesion in a post-conflict society. UNDP assists government institutions in promoting community dialogue to prevent and manage conflict, recover from natural disaster and strengthen social cohesion and resilience in a post-conflict society.
In poverty reduction, UNDP helps women and men from poor communities to lift themselves out of poverty and to build sustainable livelihoods for themselves and their families through microfinance (with UNCDF), self-help savings groups, social businesses, including cooperatives and micro to medium-sized enterprises.
With UNDP support, Timor-Leste completed its first National Adaptation Programme of Action for Climate Change (NAPA). The NAPA provides Timor-Leste with a roadmap to help the country deal with climate change, identifying climate related natural disaster risks and vulnerabilities and outlining a list of measures to work towards climate change resilience. Timor-Leste has also developed a National Biodiversity Strategy & Action Plan (NBSAP), through which a comprehensive baseline-assessment of Timor-Leste's biodiversity is being done.
Who are the decision makers?
Mr. Knut Ostby is the UN Resident Coordinator and UNDP Resident Representative. The UNDP Country Director a.i. is Noura Hamladji and the Operations Manager is Ermira Basha.
Programme heads are responsible for each of the programme areas –governance (Farhan Sabih) and sustainable development and resilience (Nicolas Kroger). Other managers oversee administrative and support units including finance, human resources, IT, administration, media, procurement and security. Programme decisions are made in consultation with counterpart institutions in the Government of Timor-Leste and donor and other partners, through institutional managerial arrangements established in agreements signed between UNDP and the Government of Timor-Leste.

General internists are trained in primary care internal medicine, which incorporates an understanding of disease prevention, wellness, substance abuse, mental health and treatment of problems of the eyes, ears, skin, nervous system and reproductive organs. All internists are trained in the subspecialty areas of internal medicine including emergency internal medicine and critical care. Internists consult with surgeons when surgical management is indicated, and often act as consultants to other specialists.

Engineer Charles L. Lawrance began developing air-cooled aircraft engines in 1914, and the Lawrance Aero Engine Corporation soon started to manufacture two-cylinder models on a small scale in New York City. The first of its three-cylinder designs, the Model B, appeared in 1916, followed by a series of three-cylinder radials-the L-2, L-3, L-4, and L-5-shortly after World War I. The L-series was an intermediate step toward Lawrance's milestone designs that culminated in the Wright Whirlwind radial engines of the mid-1920s. However, Lawrance lacked the financial resources to further develop his promising radial designs. But, through pressure from the U.S. Navy, Lawrance's company was merged with Wright, resulting in one of the most successful American engine manufacturers of the twentieth century.
The U.S. Navy used this Lawrance L-3 to power its ultralight Naval Aircraft Factory SA-1 and Loening M-2 Kitten, which operated from aircraft carriers, battleships, and submarines in the early 1920s.
Transferred from the U.S. Navy, Naval Supply Center, Cheatham Annex, Williamsburg, Virginia.

National team competitions
28-19, 21-18, 23-15, 12-17
Hapoel Holon has opened their 2012/2013 EuroChallenge account with a straightforward 84-69 victory over Armia in Group H action on Wednesday night.
Leading from start to finish, the Israeli hosts never looked like losing as Franklin Hassell contributed a game-high 22-point, 15-rebound double-double, whilst David Smith chipped in 16 points, eight rebounds and six assists. Zachary Rosen had 13 points and Jerome Dyson helped out with 12.
Having led 14-6 with less than five minutes played, Hapoel Holon's lead briefly looked threatened when a Curtis Millage three brought the visitors back within three points, 14-11.
But the three-point deficit early on was as close as Armia would come to taking the lead.
Millage ended the game with 20 points whilst Lamayn Wilson chipped in with 15 for the away team.
At the end of the opening quarter, the home side's lead stood at nine points and by the time the half arrived, the buffer had moved into double figures.
The final nail was placed firmly in the coffin following the break as Hassell picked up eight third quarter points to put his team in front, 72-52, with one period remaining.
In the final ten minutes, Armia were able to ensure that the deficit did not grow any further as Hapoel Holon dropped their tempo, seeing their lead cut back to 15 points by the time the final buzzer sounded out.
Hapoel Holon coach, Dan Shamir:
"We had the game under control. I am pleased that my team played good defense. Our strength is consistency because that's how we win games. I do not want to hand out grades to anyone. A long journey always starts with small steps."
Frank Hassell, Hapoel Holon:
"It was a good game; we played as a team like Holon want to play. I play hard; Dan Shamir told me a few things and put me in the right places to succeed. With a good player and a good coach you have a good game."
Lasha Parghalava, Armia:
"I want to congratulate Holon, they had a great game and they are a good team. It is an important experience for us and I'm sure we will improve in Tbilsi and we will win."
Armia coach, Kote Tugushi:
"A first game is always hard for the team; their fams did a great job. We knew Holon is a good team and they played their game - running all the time."

Rauol Gagnon speaks frankly about war.
"Combat is hell on wheels each and every single time," said the 88-year-old retired Marine master gunnery sergeant. "And going into combat means you pay a price whether you live or die. No matter what, it's going to cost you something."
Gagnon's 32-year Marine Corps career began in June 1942 when he left New Bedford, Mass., and attended recruit training at Parris Island, S.C., with his parents' blessing.
"The drill instructors put you through the paces," Gagnon said. "Either you make it or you break it. Some people got to the point where they couldn't take it anymore. They got sent home and you never heard from them again."
After graduation Gagnon was shipped to the Pacific where he trained for upcoming missions on the battlegrounds of Guadalcanal. After nearly a month of training he was sent to the battle of Bougainville as an artillery forward observer within the second wave to land.
"When we got about 800 yards from the shore they started coming at us one-by-one," he said. "Once we took them out, we had it fairly easy compared to the rest of them boys. ...We more or less mopped everything up after the first wave went through."
After Bougainville the Marines were loaded back up on ship and were sent to the battle of Guam.
"It was more or less pure hell," the Jacksonville resident said. "Guam was more open compared to Bougainville, which was strictly jungle. You weren't tripping over stumps and you could see more than 200 feet in front of you. ...As long as we operated there, it was just horrible."
Gagnon served as a forward observer.
"We crawled quite a bit being right up front," he said. "Calling for artillery, I knew I was helping to keep the other men safe."
Machine guns were the Americans' best friend, he said, adding that the Japanese "stupidly" ran across open fields toward them and were picked off one-by-one.
"The anxiety of waiting for the enemy to hit was the worst part," Gagnon said. "You don't know where they are going to hit or with what strength. In reality you never knew what you were going to be up against."
The worst part of World War II for Gagnon was watching five of his "boot camp buddies" get killed right in front of him, he said.
"It's something I don't think I will ever forget," Gagnon said. "I have really bad memories of them being wiped out. I wish I could forget it — I wish they'd leave me already."
Leaving World War II and returning home was by far the best part of the war but peacetime wouldn't last forever, he said.
"I knew what combat was after World War II, and I wasn't excited about going to Korea or Vietnam," Gagnon said. "I knew friends would die. I knew I'd see things I didn't want to see. That's just what war is."
While serving as a gunnery sergeant in Kore,a Gagnon was in charge of an artillery unit of 105 and 155 millimeter howitzers. During the battle for Hue City he provided artillery support, calling hundreds of fire missions, he said.
"Korea was very different," he said. "World War II — there was always something happening. In Korea you could go a month without something happen. It was the strangest thing ever."
After surviving two wars, Gagnon wished his days in combat were over. But when Vietnam began, he volunteered to go overseas.
"People respected my experience because very few people had been where I had been," Gagnon said. "Even with my experience I was surprised that Vietnam was as quiet as it was. Sure you could hear gunshots in the distance, but for the most part it wasn't what I was used to."
After 32 years and three wars Gagnon said he would still do it all over again.
"To me it was all worth it," Gagnon said. "I fought for our country. I fought for our freedoms.
"Somewhere along the lines someone will get killed but it's all for the greater good. It's for the greatest country in the world — the United States of America."

Blinds come in plastic, metal or wood. Generally speaking, vinyl blinds are the most economical kitchen blinds on the market. This makes them ideal choices for rental homes and apartments where one still wants privacy and light control, but doesn't want the cost of higher-end products. Metal blinds are another practical choice for use in the kitchen. They are durable and economical and work well in a more contemporary design plan. Both vinyl and metal blinds are easily kept clean with a little regular upkeep.
Wooden blinds are the top-of-the-line choice for kitchen blinds. They come in wide or narrow slats and are sturdy enough for wide window coverage. White wooden blinds are a very popular choice right now, as they are fresh and clean looking, yet still very traditional. The value of wood blinds is that they can be integrated into the millwork in the kitchen for a truly high-end look. Wood blinds come in many species of wood and can be stained to match or coordinate with the kitchen cabinets.

The newly christened Dolby Theatre looks beautiful from backstage at the Oscars.
OK, I lied. Not about the former Kodak Theatre's beauty, but about being able to see the theater from where I'm sitting. However, I can describe exactly for you what the ballroom next to the hallway on the second floor in the hotel across the alley from the Dolby Theatre looks like. Apparently, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences doesn't trust the riffraff media to mingle with the elite of Hollywood. And who can blame the academy?
Anyway, the ballroom is lovely. And now on with the "backstage" show.
Revenge is sweet – Ben Affleck, who won the best-picture Oscar as "Argo's" producer, said he was "naturally disappointed" to be snubbed in the directing category, but felt better when he saw the other top directors who were excluded from the list. "I admire all of them," he said. "It was a tough year, and you're not entitled to anything."
Asked what he was thinking when first lady Michelle Obama announced his Oscar, he confessed that he was hallucinating at the time, and later asked fellow producer George Clooney if that indeed was Mrs. Obama reading their names.
That first step is a killer – Best actress Jennifer Lawrence was asked what happened when she fell on her way to the podium. "What happened? I tried to walk upstairs in this dress. That's what happened."
Asked how her Oscar day started, she compared it to Steve Martin's in the comedy "Father of the Bride." "It was mostly chaotic and so stressful. I got up, tried on the dress and it fit. But I didn't eat and I was really hungry in the limo on the way over here."
When a reporter wondered if after winning an Oscar at such a young age (22), she was worried about peaking too soon, the stunned actress paused, and then said, "Well, now I am."
Don't tug on the beard – Best actor Daniel Day-Lewis, who revealed that he grew his own beard during the filming of "Lincoln," said he was concerned about an Irish actor playing an American president. "There was a paralyzing quality to it. If we got it wrong, I might not be allowed to show my face in this country again."
Day-Lewis is famous for disappearing into his characters, but he assured us that he had ended his Lincoln period. "I'm definitely out of character at this moment," he said. "If I get stuck in it again, you have my permission for an intervention."
Quentin's second banana wins again – Despite a large contingent of German journalists on hand, supporting-actor winner Christoph Waltz refused to supply answers in his native German. He hinted that he had accommodated the German reporters in 2010, when he won the same award for "Inglorious Basterds," but felt it didn't go over well with the English-language media.
Waltz then was asked one of the dumbest English-language questions of all time – "How do you feel?" – and he responded accordingly. "This happened exactly seven minutes ago," he explained. "I was on a list with the greatest actors around. How do you think I feel? I can't really tell you. Sorry."
Then something really strange happened. A "journalist" stood up to ask a question, but it wasn't a journalist at all. It was actor David Arquette, who was credentialed for the Howard Stern radio show. He hogged the microphone, asked dumb questions and announced to everyone that he was an actor to make sure he wasn't mistaken for one of us. No chance of that – none of us was dumped by Courteney Cox. He asked Waltz how he would feel about a black pope, presumably because his film – "Django Unchained" – was about slavery. The question made sense in the Howard Stern context. Waltz said he didn't care what color the new pope might be. "If you are non-racist, you must stay non-racist."
By the way, Waltz was asked when he knew the role was special, and he said he knew it when Tarantino was sending it to him over his home printer. "Each page, I realized it was something special."
Oh, no, not Jack again – It may have seemed like "Life of Pi" might be headed for a best-picture Oscar, but director Ang Lee had a premonition that it wasn't in the cards. The last time Lee won a best-directing Oscar, for "Brokeback Mountain," he also was denied a best-picture Oscar, which was announced that year by Jack Nicholson. Guess who announced the category this year?

I hate to bash Mike Brown as he is the coach of our team, and the Lakers organization has just reaffirmed their faith in the man, but seriously what was he thinking? At the end of the first quarter he trotted out a line-up of Darius Morris, Devin Ebanks, Antawn Jamison, Jordan Hill, and Pau Gasol. A passive Pau Gasol paired with no great floor-spacing shooter or shot-creating playmaker, what could go wrong? That line-up closed out the final two and half minutes and produce not a single point. Zero. Zilch. Nada. Goose Egg.
Surely Mike Brown would have recognized the flaws in that line-up, right? Not quite. He started the next quarter with a similar line-up, but with Metta World Peace now manning the shooting guard position and Howard anchoring the middle. It shouldn't come as a surprise that this line-up played a couple minutes and was outscored 10-4. Playing these two line-ups to end the first quarter and start the second quarter caused the Jazz' four-point lead to balloon to fourteen points. The Lakers would never recover from that run.
The famous saying is, "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." But what happens if you are fooled three times? Mike Brown was twice hurt by these four non-shooters plus one all-star big man line-ups. Certainly the man wouldn't do it again in the same game would he? Well, yes he did. Brown sent the same line-up that started the 2nd quarter back out on the court to start the 4th. The Jazz extended their lead another three points during that span. For those of you who are counting, those line-ups were a combined -13 while the other line-ups were a +4.
One of the reasons those line-ups failed so miserably is because there was no spacing due to a lack of shooters on the floor. This is where Mike Brown's other most puzzling move came in: Jodie Meeks, DNP - Coaches Decision. Meeks is the only true back-up shooting guard on the roster, has a solid three-point stroke, and has shown some defensive chops. Mike Brown never let him leave the bench and instead chose to play MWP as the back-up shooting guard. If anyone has any idea for why he would choose this, please let me know because no matter how I look at it, I can't find any justifiable reason for such a decision.

PORTLAND -- A new fleet of TriMet hybrid buses includes microphones that can record passenger conversations.
As first reported by KGW news partner The Oregonian, the microphones can be used to pick up conversations between passengers, as well as any abnormal mechanical sounds. Recordings can be used during investigations into complaints, crashes or crimes.
TriMet purchased the state-of-the-art Gillig 3000-Series buses in fall 2012 and, with the launch of four hybrid buses in January, has put them all into service.
While the agency shared many of the new features in an October press release, including improved tracking and security camera systems, the new microphones were not listed in the statement.
But spokeswoman Mary Fetsch told KGW the sound recording was a standard feature of the new buses.
The audio came standard with the new buses, she said. Transit buses across the country have this same feature, as close as CTRAN in Vancouver.
A sign on each bus alerts riders that they will be recorded.
Some TriMet drivers also complained in January that the new hybrid buses were unsafe.

Perfect for small dogs, these natural rawhide twists are made of 100% American bison. The premium treats are made without adding hormones, antibiotics or harmful chemicals. They are also hypoallergenic, so even dogs with allergies or sensitive tummies can enjoy these delectable twists!
Made with Care
Only free-range U.S. bison are used to make these rawhide twists. The hides are collected from USDA inspected facilities in Colorado and South Dakota. Since there are limited tanneries in the U.S., the hides are then sent to Mexico for processing.
After the twists are completed, they are sent back to a facility in Louisville for final inspection and packaging. Rest assured knowing that your dog will only eat treats made from the very best rawhide possible!
Rawhide is a tough material, so we recommend supervising your pet while he chews this twisted treat.
Product Highlights
Twists are approximately 5" long (about the size of a standard ink pen)

ν42 is my programming blog. You can also find me on Twitter, LinkedIn, GitHub, O'Reilly's programming blog, CPAN, Perltricks.com, and Google+.
I am a consultant with a Ph.D. in Economics, and a passion for programming. I picked up my first language, Z-80 assembly, more than three decades ago. Since then, I have worked with a variety of programming languages such as APL, C, Pascal, Fortran, C++, Python, Ruby, but my most favorite is Perl by far. Recently, I have been working on gaining a decent understanding of Ocaml and F#.
As an economist, I mostly work on health care related projects these days, focusing on both pricing structures, and productivity improvements. My dissertation was in the field of experimental economics, and I am an expert in applied microeconomics, data analysis, econometrics, and statistics. I have been using SAS since 1995, Stata since it came out, and occasionally dabble in MatLab/Octave and R. With the data sets I am using, the fact that SAS does not need to hold the data set in memory is a huge advantage.
On the development side, I maintain a few packages on CPAN, try to contribute to others as much as I can.
I am available for one-on-one coaching, training, codebase analysis and evaluation, forensic analysis, and other development related consulting projects as well. If you have a large data set which you do not want to have tortured at the hands of significance seeking, let me know.

Intent on examining the ruins of Sablier despite warnings to scare him away, Oz and his makeshift party of explorers wander through the remnants of the former capital in search of clues to shed light upon the consuming darkness of the past. But in the yawning void where the opulent city once stood, will Oz come face to face with the truth? Or will he find misery the only resident...?

These are great arm warmers. They're very warm. In fact, they're so warm that I actually only use them for a couple months of the year (the rest of the time I use Smartwool arm warmers).

Cat Spleen Tumor
Cat Spleen Tumor
Spleen tumors are very aggressive. Hemangiosarcoma, a type of spleen tumor, is more common in dogs than in cats. There is little time after diagnosis that can be spared before treatment is begun. The spleen is a very vascular organ. It is the storehouse of blood. Its job is to remove damaged and old cells and this helps the immune system. It is also one organ that a cat can actually survive without. Hemangiosarcomas are usually formed within a cat's blood vessels. Unfortunately, this type of Cat Cancer is very aggressive. It can also rupture which would cause your cat to bleed to death.
Signs and Symptoms
The symptoms of spleen tumors are not specific. They may have weakness, Cat Loss of Appetite and consequently Cat Loss of Weight. Your cat may also have a Cat Swollen Abdomen; and in some cases, sudden death, if it ruptures.
Early diagnosis is very important to improve the prognosis. The physical examination by your vet may reveal a mass in the abdomen. If so, x-rays and other imaging studies may be ordered if necessary.
Treatment Options
Surgery is the only treatment that proves to be successful. It may be followed by Cat Cancer Chemotherapy to slow the rate of metastasis in other organs. After surgery has been completed, most cats will be able to return to their homes within 48 hours. Bleeding is the most common complication and therefore your cat may receive blood transfusions before surgery. Often when the vet opens the abdomen their visual examination may reveal a significant amount of metastasis. It is then your decision as to whether or not the surgery should proceed. Realizing that the metastasis will continue to cause undo pain for your cat may lead you to the decision to euthanize your cat rather than put them through follow up treatment and continued pain. However, you may also decide instead to offer your beloved cat Cat Palliative Cancer Care in order to prolong the quality and quantity of their life.
If surgery cannot be performed for whatever reason, chemotherapy may be the only course available. In some cases this is often not successful. It is at these times that loving cat owners must decide if they are there for their cat, or if their cat is there for them.
Pain in Cats with cancer
There is no doubt that any type of cancer in your cat will cause pain. The degree of pain varies with the location of the cancer and the treatment that you decide to pursue with the recommendation of your veterinarian. Cancer is not the only thing that causes the pain, but the treatment can cause pain as well. Post operative treatment will include a considerable amount of pain. Your vet will give you a prescription for analgesics to relieve pain. They should be given as directed. Prevention of the severe pain will enable your cat to continue with some of their normal activities.
A cat's normal reaction to pain is a defense mechanism which will cause them to retreat and become distant from their normal activities. You, as their caring owner, can prevent this by controlling your cat's pain. Things can happen quickly and so you should always observe your cat closely.
Diet during cancer and treatment
You need to discuss an adequate nutritional state for your cat. They will need adequate nutrition to maintain their immune systems which will help them fight the disease and maintain some of their normal activities. There are many different types of Cat Cancer Diets and Cat Cancer Dietary Supplements that can enhance your cat's wellbeing.

Shale Gas
Shale Gas
Shale gas is the term used to describe natural gas found in shale rock.
Although it's considered an unconventional source of natural gas because of the difficulty involved in extracting it, shale gas in the last decade has gained prominence as technological advances have made it more easily accessible. It's considered a cleaner fuel than coal because it emits fewer greenhouse gases during combustion. However, hydraulic fracturing or 'fracking' is a technique to extract shale gas that has come under fire for environmental and public health concerns.
Read more about 'shale gas'
The recent success of shale gas production in the United States has led to similar projects starting in Canada, Europe, Asia and Australia. In November 2009, the Obama Administration announced the launch of a new U.S.-China partnership whereby American expertise would be tapped to help China access its shale gas resources.
According to a 2010 study by IHS CERA, an energy research center in Cambridge, Mass., shale gas accounted for only one percent of the natural gas supply in the United States in 2000. A decade later, the percentage had increased to 20 percent and by 2035 it could be as high as 50 percent, according to the study.
From 2007 to 2010, more than 1,800 trillion cubic feet of natural gas reserves have been discovered in North America, bringing the total untapped natural gas reserves to 3,000 trillion cubic feet in North America. According to the IHS CERA study, that's enough to supply current U.S. consumption for more than 100 years.
There are environmental concerns about shale gas extraction. The extraction process involves digging a well an average of one-and-a-half miles into the ground to reach the gas-bearing rock. Once the well is dug vertically, oftentimes the next step is to drill horizontally into the shale rock. After drilling horizontally for close to a mile, water, sand and chemicals are pumped into the well at high pressure to fracture the shale rock and release the gas, which in turn rises back up the well to the surface.
That's the concern comes in: if the well's casing should leak any of the gas or drilling fluids, it could contaminate the local water supply.
The first commercial gas well drilled in the United States was a shale gas well dug in 1821 in Fredonia, New York. Because of natural gas prices and the expense of horizontal drilling, shale gas wells were not considered economically viable until the recent advances in technology.

Dubrovnik is a one-town tourist industry on its own. As stunning as the clear blue sea around it, the former centre of the independent Republic of Ragusa invites superlatives and attracts the lion's share of year-round visitors. When a foreigner thinks of Croatia, he thinks of Dubrovnik's proud, pristine fortifications set on an azure background. The travel brochure covers need little touching up. Anti-clockwise currents running up the coast from Albania mean that the Adriatic is crystal clear here.
Dubrovnik has the cream of Croatia's five-star hotels and attracts the most notable celebrities. With the opening of the cablecar to Mount Srđ and continuing talk of a golf course, Dubrovnik is expanding its attractions beyond the Old Town.

Comments about Easton EC70 Carbon Flat Bar 2013:
I wanted a bar that was carbon; so it would be light and be able to absorb vibration. I also wanted it to be understated. I didn't feel like bright red/green or white up front. This has a very matte finish with the Easton logo faintly screened on. It looks great and adds to the stealthy appeal of the bike. Best looking stem I have found, and for the price, it could not be beat.

Recent disappointing economic indicators have led the Federal Reserve to take additional extraordinary monetary actions to support the anemic recovery. On Thursday, September 13, 2012, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) announced a third round of large?scale asset purchases, known as quantitative easing, amounting to $40 billion per month. The FOMC also extended its pledge to keep short?term interest rates near zero through at least mid?2015, and reconfirmed its asset maturity extension program, known as Operation Twist, will continue through the end of 2012. The employment portion of the Federal Reserve's dual mandate for full employment and price stability has motivated the FOMC to take a series of extraordinary monetary actions over the four years since the height of the financial crisis.
But despite Federal Reserve's best attempts, it has fallen short in its quest for more jobs. A dismal Employment Report released on Friday, September 7, 2012, found just 96,000 payroll jobs were created in August and the unemployment rate has remained above eight percent for 43 consecutive months. While the unemployment rate has declined from its October 2009 peak of 10.0%, the decline has been driven by declining labor force participation, not job creation. Job creation remains anemic, and labor force
participation has slumped to its lowest level since September 1981. The Federal Reserve's actions will likely prove ineffective because monetary policy cannot solve the problems facing the anemic economy recovery. Liquidity is high, and interest rates are low. America's businesses are not sidelined because monetary policy hasn't done enough; rather, they are sidelined because uncertainty over budget, regulatory, and tax policies is as high as it has ever been in Washington.
Naturally, the question arises as to whether the new round of monetary accommodation will provide much benefit to the economy. The consensus among economists and market watchers is that it will do little good, while increasing the risk of harmful price inflation in the future.

See a map
Dutchman Wim Hof first came to the awareess of the public through his remarkable feats in the extremes of nature, such as swimming / running in shorts only, in the Arctic in mid-winter; a marathon in the Namibian desert in mid-summer; and climbing some of the world's highest mountains without the need for oxygen. He has 20 world records, has been the subject of numerous documentaries and scientific studies, demonstrating control over his 'autonomic' nervous system and immune system.
Over the past few years Wim has been travelling the world, teaching the method that allows him to tap deeper into his resources for vitality, well-being, adaptatability, and 'extraordinary' performance. He will be visiting the San Francisco Bay Area in April 2013 and teaching his Wim Hof Method Basic Course on April 27-28. This is a unique opportunity to meet a truly inpiring human being, as well as a yogic master, and learn his simple yet profound methods.
The course will include physical and breathing exercises, mindset-empowering exercises, and non-forced cold exposure (optional) to improve mind-body control, performance, health, and harmony with Nature. There will also be discussion of current scientific research of the method and, depending on interest, deeper exploration of its philosophical and spiritual aspects.
