Cat Metastatic Neoplasia
Cat Metastatic Neoplasia
This particular type of Cat Cancer is one that has spread from another part of the cat's body. Many tumors metastasize to the lymph nodes and lungs. Metastasis can actually occur in any organ of the cat's body.
The metastasis is usually spread through the cat's lymphatic system or their blood stream. The prognosis will depend on the location of the primary tumor and where in the body metastasized to.
Signs and Symptoms
Your cat should be observed for any changes in their normal activity or health. Early diagnosis is always important, but especially important with cancer.
• Changes in elimination. Either Cat Diarrhea or Cat Constipation
• Lameness
• Change in appetite, such as Cat Loss of Appetite which leads to Cat Loss of Weight
• Persistent Cat Coughs
• Weakness
• Cat Cancer Lumps either on or under their skin
• Any changes in behavior
If any of these symptoms persist, contact your vet.
An accurate diagnosis of metastatic cancer is dependent on locating the primary tumor and also finding evidence of metastasis to other parts of the cat's body.
An accurate health history is always important. Your vet will perform an extensive physical examination. This will be followed by lab tests and x-rays of the abdomen and other affected parts of the cat's body.
Your veterinarian may also choose to perform either a fine needle aspiration or a biopsy. It will depend on the location of the mass and the affect it may have on your cat.
Treatment Options
Although Cat Cancer Chemotherapy and surgery are sometimes successful in treating cancers, once they have metastasized, the prognosis is poor at best. Metastasized cancers respond poorly to chemotherapy, and surgery cannot be done if the disease has metastasized to other organs within the cat's body.
The only treatment that you may choose is fluid therapy, supplementing their diet with vitamins and minerals and treatment of infections that may arise. Cancer is painful. Your vet will order pain medication and it should be administered as frequently as your vet orders it. Pain can result from the disease process itself as well as the surgical treatment or chemotherapy. Keep your cat comfortable by following simple Cat Palliative Cancer Care guidelines.
Nutritional care is vital. Weight loss and loss of appetite need to be supplemented to maintain your cat's comfort and energy status. Keep them well fed.
Home Care
All of the prescribed medication needs to be given. These can include antibiotics, pain medication as well as Cat Cancer Dietary Supplements.
Observe your cat for an increase in symptoms, such as lethargy and lack of appetite. If any of the signs of the original disease become worse, it is time to call your vet and take action.
Metastatic disease is difficult if not impossible, to prevent.
Early diagnosis helps and that will depend on early recognition.
It is important for the cat owner to observe and note any changes in the cat's condition. If weight loss continues after a few weeks, or if there are new lumps on the skin or under the skin, it is time to call your vet for a complete physical examination.
While these steps may not prevent cancer, early diagnosis can slow down the progression of the disease and metastasis.

Case Study | April 4, 2013
Accel Takes MSP Automation To The Next Level With N-ableSource: Solarwinds N-able
With more than 600 small-to-midsize business (SMB) customers across the Antwerp region of Belgium, Accel Computer Service is a managed service provider (MSP) at the top of its game in a competitive market. The 40-person firm has found that the secret to success lies in automation, and to get the job done, Accel looks no further than N-able Technologies®, the global leader in remote monitoring and management (RMM) automation technology.
Managing Director Marc De Swaef founded Accel in 1992, and has transformed his IT services firm in recent years to focus on selling solutions instead of products. To best support that business model, in mid-2011 the company adopted N-able's N-central®, the #1 RMM and MSP service automation platform, and in less than a year's time, it now has more than 4,000 customer devices under management.
According to Wim Lamot, technical manager, Accel's fast-paced growth stems from the MSP's ability to stay ahead of the curve by making automation an increasingly central part of the way it delivers managed services. With the powerful new Automation Manager in the N-central 9.0 release, Accel technicians can automate everything from the onboarding of new customers, new users and devices; to ticket creation in Autotask and other PSA (professional service automation) software applications; to self-healing actions; software removal; third-party patching; and the implementation of backup, endpoint security and other value-added services across the network.
The results have been dramatic. Before teaming with N-able and leveraging N-central, Lamot said onboarding was a labor-intensive process that could take up to 20 minutes for a single device. Now, using N-central 9.0, it's all done with a single click.

"Entangled Minds" with Dean Radin (2007, part 3 of 4)
Visionary: Dean Radin, PhD
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4
For millennia, people have reported unusual experiences that have been called "psychic" or "mystical." Until recently many scientists have assumed that such experiences were illusions or delusions. Dean shows that such proposals fail to account for the actual data, and that when the fabric of reality is considered from a modern physical perspective, these phenomena are not just allowed to occur, but are expected.

I came across this when an actual attorney used it in an email to me. The egg-corniness of it is very satisfying. Users must have in mind a term that connotes carrying a man named Paul or perhaps that St. Paul is somehow associated with the process.
"Where did the paul bearer(casket carrier) come from? How did it ever get its name and why? What's the history behind it?"– http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index … 703AA19NYv
I've been asked to be a Paul Bearer at a funeral on Saturday…where do I get an urn?
I've been asked to be a Paul Bearer at a funeral on Saturday…where do I get an urn? Since I've been asked to be a Paul Bearer on Friday, I'm very unfamiliar with the process…the only thing I do know is that the Paul Bearer carries an urn around leading the way for the procession.
The internet appears to be loaded with references to a professional wrestling character, whose stage name was a properly tongue-in-cheek use of "Paul Bearer."
Very nice one to start the new year, Tanner. The connection to St. Paul provides proper solemnity. Unlike the few cases of those called upon to be "ball bearers." One hopes that the ball bearers smooth the passage into the next life, and that they needn't be male.
A few years ago my Uncle died and his daughter asked my brother to be a ball-bearer (we have a very small family) – My brother works for the US Postal Service. He asked them for leave to be a ball bearer at his Uncle's funeral. They told him he had to produce a DEATH CERTIFICATE, not the newspaper obit. Like my brother was going to ask our cousin for their father's death certificate to be a ball bearer!

Ball bearing led to the following cute, poignant googlenonce.
he glances over to see her mother bawling in the arms of her husband. He cries more. Next they all file out and make their way to the cemetery. He was asked to be a bawl bearer. Even harder for him it was. To have to carry her to her resting place. But he did it strong.

A further variant describes the task quite accurately – the coffin is pulled from the hearse before being borne onward…
"I'm not worried about you. I'm just worried about having to fit in to my busy day 6 pullbearers with chronic back problems!" ...
– you would think that having been a pullbearer at his mates funeral would have been a bit of a wake up call….

Women's Basketball Earns Conference Carolinas 'Team Sportsmanship Award'
April 2, 2014
High Point, N.C. – The Pfeiffer's women's basketball team was named a 'Team Sportsmanship Award' winner following the recent completion of the winter season league championships. Award winning teams were recognized to have demonstrated the best sportsmanship in their Conference Carolinas sport. The designation was voted on by member coaches and student athletes throughout the league.
The 2013-14 winter sportsmanship team award recipients:
Women's Basketball – Pfeiffer University
Men's Basketball – University of Mount Olive
Women's Indoor Track & Field – North Greenville University
Men's Indoor Track & Field – North Greenville University
The sportsmanship awards are presented annually to the member institution judged to have exhibited the highest degree of sportsmanship among its players, coaches, and fans during their regular playing season. A Conference Carolinas Institution will be awarded for its overall commitment to providing a quality playing environment for home and opposing fans, players, and staff members. The school with the overall best average, across all conference sports, will receive the Messick Sportsmanship award at the end of the academic year.
The sportsmanship award is decided using a voting process implemented by Athletics Directors that calls for a coach and student-athlete representative to vote together and judge conference competitors' sportsmanship. After all the votes have been submitted the conference office averages the results and the institution with the highest overall average in a particular sport is awarded the 'Team Sportsmanship Award'.
This year marks the third year that there is an individual sport 'Team Sportsmanship Award' highlighting Conference Carolinas efforts to honor institutions exhibiting sportsmanlike behaviors. As an NCAA Division II member, Conference Carolinas prides itself on creating a positive game environment through sportsmanship to ensure a positive experience for student-athletes and fans alike.

Regionalism is the buzzword in the Golden Triangle today.
At their board meeting today, the Columbus Lowndes Development LINK (LINK) board members took the last vote needed to establish a formal affiliation between their organization and the West Point Clay County Community Growth Alliance (Growth Alliance).
It is a move that has been praised by many.
"TVA applauds the Columbus Lowndes Development LINK and Clay County's comprehensive regional strategy of working together to promote their communities," said John Bradley, TVA senior vice president of economic development. "The area's track record of $4.4 billion invested and 5,600 jobs created over the past five years is very impressive, and cooperative efforts will make the area's economic development opportunities and benefits even greater."
"We are very excited to team with the West Point and Clay County community," stated LINK board president Jim McAlexander. "It is a natural fit since our economies are intertwined."
The process began after the Growth Alliance's executive director announced his resignation in late September. The organization's executive board began meeting weekly for research and discussion on what direction to take. They invited representatives of TVA, Mississippi Development Authority, the LINK, North Mississippi Industrial Development Authority and others to meet with them and voice ideas.
"The LINK has had the kind of success that we want our county to experience," said Jackie Edwards, president of the Growth Alliance board. "We decided that with their proven track record and the similarities between our two communities, we should make a proposal to join forces instead of searching for a new executive director."
The LINK has received national attention for bringing in large projects such as the Severstal steel mill, American Eurocopter, KIOR, Stark Aerospace, Aurora Flight Sciences, PACCAR and Calisolar.
"Clay County has some of the best infrastructure in the entire Tennessee Valley," said Joe Max Higgins, executive director of the LINK. "The types of companies that will be interested in Clay County will be energy and capital intensive – offering the kinds of jobs that are highly technical and well-paying."
The agreement will be in effect for a minimum of three years, with West Point and Clay County bringing one-quarter of the new alliance's funding to the table. The Growth Alliance will continue to serve as the Chamber of Commerce for West Point and Clay County.
"We couldn't be more pleased about this announcement," stated West Point mayor Scott Ross. "To use a sports metaphor, with Joe Max Higgins we have the Super Bowl MVP quarterbacking our team now. His leadership, paired with our resources such as ample power, water and wastewater capacity, has us poised for great success."
"I want to personally thank West Point's Board of Selectmen," Ross continued. "Particularly Jasper Pittman and Charles Collins, who served on the Growth Alliance's executive committee. They, along with the entire committee, are to be commended."
Ross' sentiments were echoed by Clay County Board of Supervisors Chairman Luke Lummus, who said, "We're glad to be a part of this new venture. A lot of people have worked hard to make it happen. I feel like, working together, the sky is the limit."
The plan is for the LINK to hire an individual who will be assigned to West Point. This person will be expected to have economic development experience. If he or she is not certified in economic development, that requirement is expected to be met within two years of taking the position.
"Regionalism has been discussed for many years and occurs informally on specific items and endeavors," noted McAlexander. "This first formal step is a new beginning of regionalism that will ensure a smart future for our area. Together we will become stronger as we capitalize on a larger economic base, more diversified assets and the resulting economies of scale we create."

Systems of Intelligence will power the next generation of enterprise applications built on big data. Line of business executives charged with digital transformation must understand the dynamics of Systems of Intelligence well-enough to be effective sponsors of new systems. IT executives must be effective partners and understand how to build Systems of Intelligence on top of Systems of Record. They will also need to understand how to build a radically new infrastructure to support these systems.
OpenStack is now positioned as an Integration Engine - not the entire stack, but like Linux, could grow into a critical component of IT over the next decade. This article examines the real state of OpenStack after the Kilo release and 2015 OpenStack Summit in Vancouver.
Wikibon believes CIOs should put the highest priority in developing an all-flash datacenter strategy, and implement it so that all storage acquired and deployed is 100% all-flash by 2016. The key short-term focus for CIOs is to ensure that data sharing is optimized, and that IT organization and objectives support and drive increases in data sharing. The key long-term focus is to release the potential of the best and brightest in the organization to imagine an organization supported by applications without data limits.
The emerging PaaS platforms (Cloud Foundry, Heroku, OpenShift, Docker) are all evolving to capture the mindshare of developers. While the PaaS battles are still in early days, Cloud Foundry is emerging as a leading open source platform and ecosystem to build and deploy the new Cloud Native applications that are driving these economic changes via software. But this Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) model requires changes to technology, skills (people) and internal IT processes. This means enterprises need to become familiar with this development and operational model to best understand how they can accelerate using Cloud Native applications to give themselves a business differentiation.
Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) is a full application lifecycle cloud service including initial development, testing, deployment, operations and maintenance. Wikibon defines three different PaaS cloud services, 1/ PaaS integrated with IaaS, an integrated platform (e.g., IBM Bluemix, EMC Pivotal Cloud Foundry), 2/ PaaS on top of IaaS, combining development services onto a specific platform (e.g., AWS, Microsoft Azure) and 3/ PaaS on top of SaaS, a development front-end to a SaaS platform with its underlying infrastructure (e.g., ServiceNow, SalesForce). Wikibon will be using this topology to define its PaaS analysis and forecasts.
When I began covering the Big Data market for Wikibon back in early 2011, it was early days. Big Data technologies such as Hadoop and NoSQL, while still early in their development, were becoming better known by enterprise practitioners. The market for commercial Big Data technologies and services was small but on the verge of rapid growth. But from a business use case perspective, Big Data was long on promise but short on specifics. A lot has changed over the last four years. Without question, Big Data technologies have developed at breakneck speed due in large part to a vibrant open source community of developers. Hadoop in particular has taken great strides. What was once a batch processing, unsecure and somewhat finicky framework is now a much more comprehensive, enterprise-grade, multi-application supporting Big Data platform.
Hybrid cloud is being touted as the best solution for enterprises today but it is under attack. Complex enterprises have complex needs which means they are unlikely to get everything they need from one hybrid cloud. Investing in a single hybrid cloud to glue one private and one public cloud together is not the ultimate answer, as recognised by many referring to hybrid cloud as "a journey". However, the danger is that if you design for a dual-element hybrid cloud then you will not equip yourself for the extensibility required to snap in/out new/old cloud elements over time, and you will still be down a dead end.
MarkLogic held its annual customer and partner conference in San Francisco earlier this month. The company, whose NoSQL database evolved from a simple XML data store and is beginning to disrupt the traditional RDBMS market, is experiencing solid growth. For the calendar year 2014, the company reported total revenue in excess of $100 million for the first time in its 14-year history. It is the largest of the NoSQL pure-play vendors and recently added JSON support, semantic and bitemporal analytics capabilities, and incremental back-up capabilities to its flagship database.
Enterprise IT has been ignited by the Digital Economy and exploded into thousands of users, devices, applications and questions: When users are using their laptop over coffee-house wifi to look up a customer on their public cloud SaaS CRM system, before logging into email on-premises to send an invite to the customer: are they using one identity, or two? Without a single, unique trusted identity across hybrid cloud, there is no hybrid cloud because it looks like a discombobulated and fragmented set of "stuff" to the user, whether that's an infrastructure administrator or a business administrator. This pounding headache has to be addressed with modern hybrid identity systems.
After thousands of interviews with technology leaders on cloud, big data and infrastructure - now for something completely different. JOHN CLEESE ON THECUBE!

The Defective Mitsubishi DLP TV Owners Thread
by kevindb85 - 9/27/10 7:14 AM
I'm starting this thread so that we can have all the info about these defective Mitsubishi tv's in one spot. Mine is the WD-65833, and is only 2 years old, and is completely dead! It has the swollen capacitor problem on the main board. (BGLOD) It also, had a flashing light in the upper left quarter of the screen, and a few white "spots" or pinholes in the screen. (light engine)
Mitsubishi has proven to be the worst customer support that I have ever dealt with from ANY company. Their "best and only" offer was to LET me buy another one of their tv's at a discount. The discount was a joke, as I found the same price on line, and know that it could be bought cheaper at the employee price at a major electronic retailer. For a 2 year old tv with KNOWN defective technology, the only acceptable solution is a no cost replacement.
If all of us owners of these junk Mitsubishi tv's join together, like the owners of the Sony's with the optical block problem did, then we can get them to step up and do the right thing. Right now they still deny knowing of any defect in their tv's despite the thousands of posts on various forums about it.
Many people are considering class action lawsuits against them, and there is a thread on this forum about that.
There is now a Facebook page called "I Have A Defective Mitsubishi TV" The more people who join this the better, the same way the Sony page did. It forced Sony to respond positivly to the people who were on the page, and they even have a special team that monitors the page, and responds to the people on there. I had one of the defective Sony's also, and thanks to the facebook page I now have a FREE Sony KDL-52EX700!
I urge evryone to join the face book page and post your experience. If you have misgivings about joining facebook, so did I, but you can hide your info if you want to.
You can also email their customer support at: email@example.com
Tell them about your tv, and that you have been reading on the forums about other owners of these known defects.
You can also call this # 1-800-332-2119 and when the menu voice starts, press 8.
This will get you through to a higher level of customer service, that they don't seem to want the general public to know about. Tell them Kevin sent you!
Either way, don't let them win! Let them know that you expect them to step up and provide FREE replacements for your tv's! And again, consider joining the facebook page and posting also, it can help.

Comments about Innova Studded Tire:
Appears to be a well constructed tire but a note to anyone thinking about purchasing this item.....the picture is incorrect. The picture on the Jenson site shows 4 rows of studs...great deal I thought. When I actually got the tire, there are only 2 rows. This difference results in a significant difference in performance. Just thought I would pass along the info.

Comments about Innova Studded Tire:
If you're not sure if you're good for a winder romp, you might want to try this tire. It's a cheap way to get into studded tires. But if you want to ride winter every year and demand a studded tire, best off getting a better product.
Comments about Innova Studded Tire:
Used these tires for riding in the snowy/icy streets of Denver. They worked great on snow and ice. They were terrible on asphalt. There are better studded tires for asphalt. The studs rust and fall out and wear themselves down. They might be great for trails, but they're not good for roads.
Comments about Innova Studded Tire:
ride everyday to work,hit the trails on the weekend 4-5000 kms per year first year trying studs, very good investment for icy roads, brake in straight line only!!!

MISENHEIMER, N.C. – Pfeiffer University tennis claimed a pair of victories over visiting Carson-Newman College on Thursday afternoon at the Knapp Tennis Center. Briana Oliver secured the match-winning point at #5 singles as the Lady Falcons captured a 5-4 win while the men rolled 7-2. The Pfeiffer women are now 6-6 on the year while the men improve to 5-2.
After three doubles matches and five singles contests on the women's side, it all came down to Oliver and Megan Wilson of Carson-Newman. Oliver won 6-1, 6-3 in straight-sets to earn the match win for the Lady Falcons. Pfeiffer scored points in two of the three doubles matches while Alena Krutkina and Kayleigh Featherstone also won singles points along with Oliver. Krutkina cruised 6-2, 6-0 while Featherstone needed a three-set marathon, 7-6 (2), 2-6, 7-6 (5), for the victory.
On the men's side, Pfeiffer also notched two points in doubles action while rolling in singles tallying five of the six matches. Luis Villalta was the only Falcon who needed a third set for a win going 6-3, 2-6, 10-7 in number five singles.

More lenses
Mount type
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
Designed with compactness in mind, micro 4/3 lenses go for the smallest size possible most of the time. But to achieve these dimensions, they sometimes have to compromise on image quality. In this review, we cover a wide range of standard lenses, both prime and zoom, and show that not all lenses are equal in terms of the trade-off between compactness and image quality.
Not too long ago, people assumed that choosing a micro 4/3 camera was the same thing as choosing a more versatile compact camera. Then the happy owners would start thinking about getting a zoom lens for this small camera and discover that… the zooms were nowhere near as compact as their camera. What they ended up with was not as pocketable as they hoped, but unfortunately, there are scientific optical laws that can't be changed. The lenses tested here are good examples of just how compact lenses with large focal ranges can be.
With 15 MPix on a 14.0 mm x 18.7 mm sensor in an $800 bridge camera intended for the general public, the appearance of the Canon PowerShot G1X was one of the big events at CES 2012.
Here are the results for the latest camera in Panasonic's micro-four-thirds line, the Panasonic Lumix DMC GX1. When equipped with a 14-42mm pancake lens and lateral-lever zoom, this is a very compact camera indeed.

Explore the Entrepreneurship.org Resource Center to find resources. Designed with entrepreneurs in mind, our resource center allows you to find materials to grow great ideas.
Netpreneurs--entrepreneurs who are building Internet-related businesses--are a breed apart, argues the writer. In building a new economy with vastly different attributes, these business owners must react quickly, adapt deftly, and zero in on specialties, or "niches," conducive to online commerce, says the author, who founded a software company in the 1970s and, more recently, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping communities take advantage of the Internet.
Make e-mail your ally to enhance the way you market and sell products and services over the Internet, writes this technological entrepreneur. As you turn to e-commerce, turn first to e-mail to develop a list of potential customers who also want to hear from you, get the word out about your offerings, and eventually customize your pitches for individual buyers, the author advises. Just avoid the big e-mail no-no: spamming.
Earl Graves, the founder and publisher of Black Enterprise Magazine, offers statistical evidence and his own business experience to explain businesses lose out when they dismiss the fact that the African-American consumer is most interested in a product or service's business value, not it's perceived social value. The incorrect assumptions about the African-American market that many businesses make can be corrected through, as Graves has discovered, with persistence and careful explanations of the overwhelmingly positive qualities of the African-American consumer.
Niche businesses either start with specific offerings for a discreet audience or carve out specialities within a broader base. Either way, entrepreneurs who operate niche companies must understand themselves, their goals, and their customers, in order to deliver marketing campaigns that are simple and effective.
Niche companies needn't be intimidated by their large corporate competitors because even the biggest companies must be adept at marketing differently to discreet audiences, writes the author, who founded the country's leading black-owned media concern. The solution is to stick to your specialty, maintain excitement with new ideas, and commit resources to expanding the brand.
Three dogs, two guys, and one 59-cent biscuit cutter add up to powerful national public relations: A high-brow bakery for dogs becomes the toast of prestigious publications and broadcast outlets (The Wall Street Journal, the cover of Forbes, People magazine and The Oprah Winfrey Show). In this engaging article, its co-founder serves up tips that are as tough as the business is winsome for your doing the same. Among the suggestions: massage that rookie from the local weekly.
Making customers happy is the key to an entrepreneur's single most important job--identifying, finding, and keeping customers, says the founder of one of the country's premier direct-mail businesses. Company owners must devise a system for maintaining rapport with buyers even as the business grows, the author advises. Included are suggestions for doing so, such as selecting the right products for the right customers and offering money-back guarantees.
Doing business in the rough-and-tumble arena of underdeveloped countries involves adhering to global business basics, such as researching markets thoroughly, while coping with surprises, writes a veteran international entrepreneur who first took his company overseas three decades ago. In entering the "emerging markets," entrepreneurs need to keep close tabs on how (and if) they will be paid, as well as on local managers overly eager to make sales.
Foreign markets enable entrepreneurs to increase revenue and expand markets, according to the author, who took her software company into Europe after only three years.

Hello Mr. Frank!
Sorry I am just now responding. I only use the iPhone app and just happened to use the website today to reset my password... just saw your comment now.
All is well with me, I hope you are doing great! You were definitely one of my favorite teachers ever; I still reminisce about your class — one of the most enjoyable.
Anyhow, take care!
Good preplanning if you ask me. I doubt I'll be enjoying anything about the holidays this year. I've been out of work since last October, no more unemployment, no more cash, waiting on food stamps, and being homeless on top of it all doesn't help for anything, especially in trying to get a job. At least I have my phone and some minutes left; plus what I have in storage and I hope I don't lose any of it this time around. Need a job really BAD! Have a great weekend and 4th. I doubt I'll be on here much.
"California Libs believe in giving second, third, and tenth chances. They have themselves to blame over the people they elect and judges who get nominated." Pretty much well like that AND "...stupid is as stupid does." Hope you're doing well and hope you've filled up before the price hikes started. I can't recall if i warned you along with all the others. I couldn't get to everyone though. As it is, neither you, nor we or the rest of the country or world has seen the end of the price hikes. It hasn't come down through the pipes yet; but it's going to. You might want to fill up some extra gas cans in a couple of day from now as I think you'll see just a penny or two less on some of the prices there, kind of like we're experiencing here and in other parts of the country. Then she's going to go up more.
Regrettably, many Republicans will join in with Democrats to screw us over more with "compromises" and even gas tax hikes! 11 to 15 more states and the Federal government will raise gas taxes further, which will push the price of everything up more for all of us! Inclusive of you, your family, friends, students and their families and friends and neighbors, fellow teachers, etc. None of us will be able to escape it as they don't [neither side] work for us, they work for themselves, to fill their own pockets, that of their staff, their friends, supporters [especially the wealthier ones] and the large corporations, foreign governments, the ultra-wealthy, Big Oil, OPEC, Big Banks, etc.
While I'm here, a late Feliz Navidad/Natale Hilare/Merry Christmas and a Maligayong Bagong Taon/Felice Anno Nuovo/Happy New Year to you and yours. May it be a good one for all of us! If you use the following url, you can go to YouTube and catch my Christmas greeting to all of you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ifbg8z2NadE Have a great day and week ahead! Since you're a teacher, you can use that once I get it fully finished as a link for student who want to learn foreign languages. I have SO much to do though and very little time; and I'll probably not accomplish even 30% of what I want to do! Later!
"And the Democrats rejoice! Obama is getting us closer to that European standard he boasted about!" How DARE you say that! Shame on you for speaking the TRUTH!!! LOL!!! So many of them want $5 a gallon and more for gas here, and it's coming within a short enough period of time. Yeah, it'll go down a bit before it happens, but the decline won't last long!
Thanks for a another great year! Have a nice week and Merry Christmas, a Happy New Year, and a prosperous 2014 to you and your family! Thanks Buddy! Ron
A BIG CONGRATS on reaching that 1M mark and your first new red car! Awesome, most new GBs will never make it to 1M, but you did! : ) You're one of only 7,675 GBs of more than 8,000,000 that signed up to be GasBuddies to have accumulated at least 1,000,000 points! Keep going another 2 or 3 million! Another 2M and you'll be into that nice big limo! : ) Only 2,852 GBs have made it to 2M, so there is room for you there also! Many GBs ahead of you have already retired! DON'T give up now like so many of those that retired once they got to 1M and those that got to 2M! You're doing great, it takes persistence and dedication to keep climbing that GasBuddy ladder, but you can do it, so keep going! Keep going like a PRO Arkansas GasBuddy, leading the way here in GasBuddyland for others to follow! You've been a great GasBuddy! Have a nice weekend! Thanks! Ron
Welcome aboard buddy, have a very nice week.. .YB.Shep
Really beautiful family photo. Saw it on our mutual buddy Warrens profile. Congratulations on three years gas buddy membership. Only a couple weeks from your first million. Lets be buddies also. Thanks. Shep

Clearsight LASIK Center
(405) 733-2020Our Location
- Welcome
- Learn How Easy Las?k Can Be
- Better And Safer Than Contacks
- More Affordable Than You Think
- 3 Mistakes You Dont Want To Make
- The Buzz On Las?k
Two Simple Steps to 20/20 or Better Vision
- Make sure you're a good LASIK candidate with our easy, "no puff" eye exam.
Most people hate eye exams but we make this one easy. No puffs, no stinging eye drops, no dilation. No need for a driver and no need to be out of your contacts before the most comprehensive free eye exam in Oklahoma City.
- Have LASIK Friday, Back to work Monday.
With your LASIK procedure on Friday afternoon, you can take as little as half a day off work. Enjoy your first weekend of freedom and show off your new lens free vision at work on Monday.
- Make sure you're a good LASIK candidate with our easy, "no puff" eye exam.
Contacts vs LASIK? Game, Set, Match
- Wind, dust, sports & allergies; big problem for contacts: not a problem with LASIK.
- Recent studies show LASIK is up to 5 times safer than contacts. When you consider the risks of
scratched corneas and eye fungus or other diseases from contacts, it makes sense that LASIK proves
to be much safer than contacts.
- If you're wearing contacts, you're already paying for LASIK. Add up the costs over a ten-year period
and you'll see that you've already paid for LASIK. Now you see why we offer zero percent financing?
- Just bought contacts? We'll buy 'em back!
Find out how we make LASIK affordable:
- Our Individualized Treatment Plans let you tailor the cost of custom blade-free LASIK to
your needs and budget – without skimping on technology, experience or results.
- IRS approved, tax-free payment plans can save you up to 42%. Find out if you qualify.
- Choose 0% financing for your LASIK with guaranteed approval for everyone. The idea is to
get the benefits of LASIK now and pay it off over time or when you've got the money. It really makes more sense than buying more contacts.
- Our Individualized Treatment Plans let you tailor the cost of custom blade-free LASIK to
Three Errors to Avoid When Choosing Your LASIK Surgeon :
- Don't allow yourself to be rushed during the consultation or at any point during the exam process. Demand a thorough exam and full disclosure of your suitability for the procedure.
- Don't choose a LASIK company, choose a LASIK surgeon who is a specialist – it's the personal skill and commitment of your doctor that counts.
- Don't compromise your comfort or outcome with yesterday's technology. Many LASIK centers try to make LASIK more affordable by reverting to older technology such as bladed LASIK, PRK, and non-wavefront lasers for their lower priced procedures. At ClearSight, everyone gets the latest technology but we still make it affordable. Find Out How
Famous People Need to See Their Best, Just Like You …Celebs: Ewan McGregor, Ashlee Simpson, Brad Pitt, Elton John, Nicole Kidman, Cindy Crawford, Richard Branson, Reese Witherspoon – these are just some of the celebrities who have had LASIK…
Our patients like to share their experiences: Check out our FaceBook, YouTube and Twitter sites for some cool videos from Dr. Wilson's patients.

It was Israel vs. the world.
Last November, the Israeli ambassador to the United Nations stood beneath the soaring dome of the U.N. General Assembly and tried to explain to a global audience why it would be wrong to award formal recognition to the state of Palestine.
The U.N. was poised to cast a historic vote, possibly declaring the Palestinians a non-member observer state. The designation would confer greater diplomatic status and enable Palestinians to challenge Israel in international tribunals.
The Israelis were against it, and their U.N. ambassador said so in direct terms:
"The Palestinian leadership has never recognized that Israel is the nation-state of the Jewish people. ... Don't let history record that today the U.N. helped (the Palestinians) on their march of folly."
Israel lost the vote that day, 138 nations to nine. But the ambassador's speech resonated. It was quoted internationally – on television, social media and in newspapers.
Which is another way of saying the words of Nathan Miller, just a few years removed from studying jazz at Orange County School of the Arts, were heard around the world.
For the past three years, during one of Israel's most tumultuous periods on the world stage, the Jewish nation has addressed global diplomats using the words of a man who once played Christmas tree-lighting ceremonies at Fashion Island, a man who credits his musical training with giving him an ear for the rhythms of persuasive speech.
Miller stepped down in January from his post as the chief speechwriter for the Israeli mission to the United Nations. He recently has returned to Southern California to start a communications business.
But during his tenure at the U.N., Miller, 27, shaped Israel's global voice on matters ranging from Palestinian statehood to Israeli military incursions in Gaza to the uprisings of the Arab Spring.
It was, Miller said, a job filled with "responsibility and awe," especially after that Nov. 29 speech on Palestinian statehood, when people called from Israel saying things like "I cried when I watched that speech."
Miller says it was also, in a deeper sense, a musical job.
"A big part of speech writing is understanding the cadence of the sentence. And that's very musical, understanding how that sentence is going to flow."
Miller represents an increasingly rare strain in American Judaism, a young person who staunchly defends Israel in the face of international criticism of the Jewish state's foreign policy.

For Chubb policyholders with liability insurance policies, our claim service includes protecting their interests when others
submit a claim or file a lawsuit against them for alleged injuries or damages. We handle these claims with the same care,
concern and skill taken with first party claims.
Within 24 to 48 hours of receiving the loss notice, we begin contacting the key parties to initiate our investigation, with
the objective of determining our policyholder's legal liability and evaluating the damages sustained.
If it is determined that our policyholder bears responsibility for a loss, we attempt to conclude the claim for an amount
which fairly compensates the injured party or parties. We seek to reach resolutions promptly on meritorious cases. Claims
involving no liability on the part of our policyholders will be vigorously defended at all levels.
We carefully manage all aspects of the litigation process: in coordination with defense counsel and where appropriate, we
use alternate dispute resolution methods to aid in reaching settlements. These methods often provide a more timely and cost
effective resolution for all.
Finally, a word about our approach to excess liability insurance claims. We monitor the handling of liability claims that
have the potential of reaching our policyholders' excess liability policy with Chubb. With court verdicts that can reach into
the millions of dollars, early attention to claim and litigation management is one more prudent step we take on behalf of
our policyholders.

Samsung LED UN55B7100 turns off on its own.
by cpoulos - 8/29/09 2:08 AM
My 55B7100 will all of a sudden will turn off or maybe go into stand by mode. I will be watching TV and the screen will shut off. I will turn it on and it will shut off again. I can see the remote control sensor light flashing like it got a signal sent to it but not from me. Could there be some outside interference? It will do this for a while but after unplugging the set from the wall, it will behave. This has been happening now 2 days in a row on only 5 days ownership.
Also, when the TV is acting up this way, the remote control functions have issues. I would go into the TV menu and it will not respond well to the keys/signals from the remote.

Ashley Greene was stylishly sparkling in a glitter mini. We love this dress, because it can be dressed up or down, depending on how it is accessorized. Ashley opted to for a casually chic look, adding white tights, brown boot, and a khaki trench at The Twilight Saga: New Moon mall tour in Illinois.

Canonsburg man burnedPublished Apr 30, 2013 at 9:04 am (Updated Apr 30, 2013 at 9:04 am)
A Canonsburg man suffered burns the night of April 27 when a citronella tiki torch he was trying to extinguish exploded in his face and caught his porch on fire.
Jason Chappell, 33, of 517 Blaine Ave., was found lying in the street.
A neighbor, Zach Puklus, told police he heard the explosion and grabbed a fire extinguisher. He used it first on Chappell and then on the porch. When the porch reignited, he used a trash can filled with water.
Police said the lid from the torch was found on the street.
Chappell was taken to Canonsburg General Hospital, but a hospital spokeswoman said there was no record of his treatment.

There's been a bit of a kerfuffle in the parenting/lifestyle blogosphere this past weekend, related to a brand's blogger outreach program. The brand in question is KFC, and (from what I understand, as I wasn't there) they invited a number of bloggers to an in-person event, with their children, to learn about KFC's new kids meals.
I'll disclose up front that I don't ever eat at KFC because I'm sensitive to MSG and they put it in much of their food. This fact generally puts me in the category of people who think that KFC is unhealthy: if it makes me sick, it must be unhealthy.

The EP Kings beat the Leopards 23-20 to secure their 12th successive victory and a first-placed finish in the Currie Cup First Division League stage.
The result means that the Kings will host a semi-final next week. While the Leopards lost Friday's encounter, they did enough to earn a bonus point and a place in the First Division play-offs.
The Griffons also did enough to qualify with a 39-29 victory over the Pumas in Nelspruit. This result, however, has not stopped the Pumas from finishing in second place on the log and thus securing home advantage in the semi-finals.
The SWD Eagles thumped the Valke 45-11 but this was not enough to propel them into the play-offs. The Eagles missed out on a semi-final place by a single log point.
In the other First Division match played on Friday, Boland beat Border 43-24.
Leopards 20 (13) – Tries: Edgar Marutlulle, penalty try. Conversions: Andre Pretorius (2). Penalties: Pretorius (2).
EP Kings 23 (13) - Tries: Wesley Dunlop, Wimpie van der Walt. Conversions: Dunlop (2). Penalties: Dunlop (3).
Pumas 29 (20) – Tries: Ashwin Scott, Faf de Klerk, Renaldo Bothma, Shaun Venter; Conversions: Naas Olivier (3); Penalty: Olivier.
Griffons 39 (22) – Tries: Shane Hancke, Inus Kritzinger, Cameron Jacobs, Hansie Graaf, Gavin Annandale; Conversions: Graaf (4); Penalty: Graaf; Drop goal: Graaf

the old gens look much better... this looks like some asian cross over
the old gens look much better... this looks like some asian cross over
Son, am disappoint. Definitely prefer the looks and style of the old Cayenne GTS.
Screw that fat ass, yuppy, bastardization, that, it's not a real Porshe:
the tails have that sad, old, alero look to them.
otherwise, meh, its an suv. looks ok.

1986 MR2 20V ITB Blacktop, Red The Weed Whacker
What Porsche does best is take something that ought not work, and make it work insanely well. The 356, especially the Pre-A cars, was heavily related to the Beetle. The beetle was not a car with sporting intentions. It made very little power, and the handling could be a bit spooky. Nonetheless, Porsche took the basic idea of it and made a sports car, and a very good one at that. 356s often get classed into higher displacement classes for vintage racing because they simply go and change direction better than they ought to. The 911 took the 356 idea and turned it to 11, then 12(911 RS), then 15(930), then 27(997 GT2 RS).
Fast forward to the early 2000s, and Porsche is looking to expand their product line. They add an SUV, but they wanted one that could do everything. The Cayenne can be used offroad, and it(for a stock unibody SUV, and not so much the GTS) is very capable. As it happens though, it also goes like the clappers. It is a format that shouldn't work, but with the GTS Porsche took something that shouldn't do what a sport sedan can do, and made it do that anyways. It's Porsche being Porsche just as they always have been. Just because it is an SUV and you don't like SUVs, that doesn't make it not a Porsche.
I hate to tell you, but there are people out there who hate track-day-loving, back-roads-hooning, sports car lovers as much as you hate tall "yuppie mobiles." Porsche has always made Porsches, and will for the foreseeable future. The Cayenne is a real Porsche, and I'm happy that it exists. May it rip about with alacrity on all surfaces until people stop buying them.
1989 Saab 900 Sedan/1960 Porsche 356B T5/1980 Honda CM400E
BattleRabbit takes Pictures!
So no more manual transmission for the GTS?
I get that it's hypocritical to criticize an SUV driver for driving on the road rather then driving it off road, because Ferrari owners don't drive their 458 at 180mph everywhere either.
However.... when you take said SUV and give it the sports car treatment to me that's like taking a 458 and puting it on 26" off road tires and a 12" lift kit to make it amazing off road.
It's just a bit weird.
Red: yes
Lime Green: no
Let's not forget that Ferdinand Porsche was also responsible for tanks, tank turrets, the first hybrid automobile, the beetle, a whole bunch of other forgotten rear engined compact cars. I don't think it's up to you to suppose what he might have wanted or not wanted. I'm saying that the Cayenne is an SUV by the Porsche principle.
Also, compare a 356 to virtually any of its contemporaries. Roll up windows? Sound deadening? You won't find those on an MGA or Triumph TR2. Porsche didn't like to let their vehicle's occupants suffer

A cancer doctor is very familiar with the anxious and fearful grief that accompanies a diagnosis of cancer. We are less acquainted with the lonely and empty grief that is experienced by those left behind when our patients die. However, when I wear my hospice medical director hat, I am privy to those struggles, and knowing that the loss of someone close is particularly difficult during the holidays, I have chosen to divert from subjects I am more familiar with and rely on the experts at hospice to help me present a meaningful discourse on grief during the holiday season.
For the bereaved, the joyous holidays trigger emotions of great conflict. Every act of preparing for the holidays, once a time of cheer and anticipation, becomes another stabbing reminder of ones loss. The demands of family and friends, always a bit stressful around Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas, and New Year, now are overwhelming, both physically and emotionally. Traditions, designed to create love and family unity, now seem empty and may even create divisions among the grieving. Even successful celebration may bring on a deep surge of guilt for enjoying the holiday alone. And those who have no physical or emotional reserves left for thanksgiving or joy making, may feel great pressure to "get on with their life, and join in the fun."
It has been suggested that the key word in grief is "permission." The bereaved need permission from themselves, and from family and friends, to grieve as long as necessary and in any way that works, remembering that what works may not always be the same. It means permission to only do what you can. A turkey and all the trimmings may just be too much this year. Eating out may be perfect. Having someone else do dinner may be better yet.
Permission may also be needed to change some timeworn traditions. It must be recognized that ...

Dealing with a Whopper of a problem
Did you notice a lot of "Whoppers" in the goodie bag your trick-or-treater brought home? Or did you notice how many of those little candies were in the bag of treats you passed out? Assistant News Editor Jeff Eubanks talks about his chocolate cravings and how the malt ball treat, obviously popular with some, doesn't make the grade with him. (November 1, 2012, Page 4)

La Rondine is a melodic feast. What attracts you to it? Puccini is one of my favorite composers, so first of all it's about the wonderful music. La Rondine may not be as dramatic as Tosca or Madama Butterfly, or even La Bohème. Nobody dies! But it's a lyrical, poetic, and very romantic story about love, and the music is full of passion. For me that's enough to love this opera. You're making your role debut as Magda in this production. How would you describe her as a character? She seems to echo several other operatic heroines. It's true, she's a bit like Violetta, a bit like Manon and Mimì. But she's less tragic, and of course she's not sick. She's really just a beautiful young woman who wants to love and be loved and who is hungry for a real relationship. Nicolas Joël's production places the action in the time the opera was written, rather than the mid-19th century of the libretto... I think the story works very well in a 1920s setting. It was the time of Coco Chanel, who had a strong influence on women—especially beautiful women who would use men to help their careers, women who were in pursuit of money and the good life. You're part of a wave of Latvian artists, including Elīna Garanča, Maija Kovalevska, Marina Rebeka, and your husband, conductor Andris Nelsons, among others. Is this a "golden age" for opera in Latvia? We always had fantastic singers in Latvia, but in Soviet times it wasn't possible for them to get out. So they all worked at home or elsewhere in Russia. Now we have even more brilliant people, singers and conductors, and the great thing is that the world is open to us. So everybody gets to enjoy Latvian talent! —Philipp Brieler

I'm not ruling out the possibility that you threw this out just to invite dispute.
Whether evolutionism is a cult depends on whether or not they make an effort to find out what is true or not. And whether or not they do a good job showing the work and allowing scrutiny.
As far as I can tell they are doing a far better job doing this than religions however not as good as they could and should. They still need to do a better job explaining evolution and teaching rational thought. But they don't qualify as a cult like religions that make no effort at all to figure out what is true they just tell people to believe what they are told.
Not to invite dispute, as much as I love dispute, but simply to state a fact. Why of course zach, of course it is a cult. Like any other social group of this sort, they are devoted to beliefs or practices that the population at large considers to be outside the mainstream. Church and "mainstream" are like apple pie, hot dogs, and chevys. Evolution does not fit into the equation.
