As I approach my anniversary of moving to Portland and just coming off an incredibly amazing birthday, I have so many thoughts flowing. Summing up my thirtieth year is no easy feat. I've been challenged at work beyond what I thought I could handle (but somehow I did!), and I hit a brick wall with my business. I moved and then lost my roommate after 4 weeks (don't worry, I found a great replacement, but am still trying to convince her to move back to Portland!), and on a more lighthearted note, I managed to sit next to TWO puking people during one day of flying (Reminds me- I have such good luck with air travel). Oh yeah, and I kissed a giraffe! Yes, the past year was full of excitement, both good and bad.
However, my year of thirty opened up so many unbelievable opportunities for me. In terms of business, I got my ass kicked by several folks and I found direction. I got not one, but two business advisors, and I found a community of entrepreneurs here (Portland is full of them!) to mingle in. I participated in my first startup pitch event for women… and I won! Far more important than winning was the fact that I got over my fear of discussing my plans for Amsha publicly. I'm not fearful of public speaking but if you tell people your plans, it means you might be held accountable. I found a sweet new place to call home in Portland, which came with a large office, a great location, and a yard where I started my first organic garden. I've never kept any plants alive in my life, except for a single gerbera daisy in college… and I eventually killed that too, so the fact that all of my tomato plants are alive and thriving have left me feeling triumphant.
The weather has been great this summer in Portland, and I have hiked, biked, and swam until my heart's so full it could burst. I got over my fear of biking in the city and now that it's summer, I bike most places except for work (since I have to drive for my job). I also participated in Pedalpalooza, which included karaoke biking and an awesome Bowie vs Prince ride. And perhaps one of the biggest changes of all, I started working four days/week. And I LOVE it! No really, I loooooooooove it. Attempting to strike that work/life balance, I now have Mondays off from my day job to work uninterrupted on my business. This frees up more of my weekend to go on adventures, hike, drink wine with friends, ride my bike, and go to the park every Sunday with some pretty fantastic kids. I can't imagine going back to five days/week in an office and even now I have that creeping feeling of finding it hard to do four days…but that's for another blog post.
My year of thirty only made life in Portland that much sweeter. Some of my family made the trek out from the east coast to visit which was fun. I have amazing friends, gorgeous surroundings, and…. not to be forgotten, I can WALK to a coffee shop. And to the grocery store (it's one block away), and to a tea shop, a park, restaurants, the river, downtown… and the list goes on. When I graduated, I said my wish was to live in a place where I could walk to a coffee shop. The irony that I don't drink coffee is not lost on me, but I do love coffee shops! The walkable aspect of this city, and the fact that I have actually started to buy furniture, just might be an indication that I'm sticking around for a while. And really, I can't wait to tell you what I have up my sleeve for this year.
Dear 31, I'm ready for you.

The world of professional wrestling only generally impinges on the collective consciousness when a participant roid rages his way into murder-suicide but it's not all chuckles and glamour. Insane Fight Club takes us into the unknown world of a significantly less dark and significantly less interesting form of wrestling: Insane Championship Wrestling. Its founder, hype man and tea boy Glaswegian Mark Dallas describes the ICW ethic: "blood, violence, bad language – stuff like that". "I-C-DUB!" is the chant that unites the Catholic, the Protestant, the Jew, the Presbyterian in the divided city of Glasgow ¹. Having come up on an estate rougher than a rhino's frenulum Mark wants to make ICW an authentic alternative to WWE to make his girlfriend Helen proud and give his young son Danny the chances he never had. Trying hard now, getting strong now.
Having been an underground hit for a while Mark wants to take ICW up a notch: a show at the 1100 capacity Glasgow O2 Arena. "Everything's riding on this. Ma company's reputation, ma rent, ma wain's Christmas" – sounded quite a bit like Dee Dee from Limmy's Show. ICW's star attraction is Grado a chip guzzling tub of shit whose catchphrase "It's yersel'!" and YouTube videos filmed in his mum's living room have catapulted him to the kind of stardom that means he can't walk down the street without getting out of breath. In the age of shite in a bucket callout videos it's a crowded marketplace but Grado distills the essence of his appeal. "I'm a chubby wee underdog, a chubby wee chancer". Yeah, he's all that.
Grado distills the essence of his appeal. "I'm a chubby wee underdog, a chubby wee chancer".
There's some seriously dicey health and safety in ICW. When the big event comes it sells out and ICW heavyweight Jack Jester gets some blood in his eyes. He pulls through. Tell you what though: he'll be a bit sore tomorrow!!
Look motherfuckers. Nobody wants a steel chair over the back, a kick up the arse, a slap in the tits or a sprained vag but when the mainstream is an authentically insane parade of suicidal, car crashing, roided up, gut shot, walking cardiac arrests where does the underground go? In the hellish shitscape of professional wrestling there's no place for a streetfighting man.
The verdict: British bull, dawg.
Marks out of 10: 6
¹ Aerial Telly knows little and cares less of the truth of this.

Now, that you have purchased Marco Paolo Chocolates, it is time to experience a flavor adventure that will send you drifting though luscious layers of complex sensations, or more accurately, a sense-venture (see What is a sense-venture?) of chocolate flavor notes, from your first bite to the lingering finish.
Chocolate is a very complex delicacy, especially Marco Paolo Chocolates two layered truffles that are specifically paired to make tasting into a journey of flavors like a musical passage of flavor notes.
Like wine, our chocolate truffles are something to be savored. And, just as there are methods used in wine tasting, so there are for chocolate as well.
Most people take a bite of chocolate, chew, and soon swallow, but have they really tasted the chocolate? Tasting chocolate (see Tasting Chocolate) is different than eating. Start by taking a bite on the side of the truffle from top to bottom so you get a bit of both flavors together, chewing it one or two times, and then stop and let it melt in your mouth to sense the full effect.

(Poets and Poetry in America)
James Schuyler was a keen observer of the most intimate details of the world around him and of the sensations they evoked in him. His poetry captures those detailed impressions and sensations, however ephemeral they may be. This very ephemerality is the singular distinction of his world, particularly in his presentation of nature. The individual poem lives not so much as a perfected piece of art, frozen under glass; rather, it shimmers with movement and conveys a sense of being nearly as ephemeral as the impressions it records. Sometimes, of course, the impressions and mood are so fleeting as to leave the reader with virtually nothing but random actions and details—or even only words. This is the danger of Schuyler's method—one which its great advocate, O'Hara, did not always steer clear of himself. Thus, some poems read as little more than notebook jottings.
However, the method is also responsible for the brilliance of his two long poems, "Hymn to Life" and "The Morning of the Poem" (the title poem of the volume for which he was awarded the Pulitzer Prize). These poems ramble, it is true, down the streams of Schuyler's consciousness, across several weeks' time, from place to place, subject to subject, and mood to mood. However, each attains a remarkable unity through the skill and exactness with which Schuyler has captured his own voice, developed over the course of a rather short career (barely two decades of serious publishing), to penetrate and reveal his own mental and emotional states. His highly individual, warmly personal, and frankly intimate voice is characterized by unforced humor, gentle self-deprecation, eagerness, equivocation, wonder, doubt, and fascination. This is the voice, as well, of a series of simple and tender love poems, joyful and physical without being actually erotic, addressing another man with the greatest ease and naturalness imaginable. Schuyler's achievements in evoking the processes of nature, love, and mind are praiseworthy, for producing not only such thought-provoking and appealing major works as the two long poems but also many shorter ones that are sure to enchant readers over the years.
Schuyler was a master of subtle changes—in growing things, in weather, in time of day or year, and in moods and thoughts. These he conveyed appropriately, without big effects, sudden bursts of insight, or harsh contrasts. Rather, his poems have the shimmering magical quality of familiar scenes and objects rendered in watercolor landscapes or still lifes, but they are anything but still: Even his most quiet and peaceful scenes contain movement, even if nearly imperceptible. Such constant, inevitable movement is the manifestation of life for Schuyler, and through his poetry, the reader too gains a more intense appreciation for the many wonders and delights of even the smallest details in this life, once a moment is taken to observe them.
In an interview, Schuyler once said, "Much of my poetry is as concerned with looking at things and trying to transcribe them as painting is. This is not generally true of poetry." Evidence of Schuyler's affinities to painting (which doubtless stem largely from his friendship with many painters as well as his own work in the art world) is abundant throughout his work, in his attention to color, light, texture, and other visual effects.
Besides being "very visual," his work also "seems to be especially musical," he went on to say. Indeed, he counted important composers such as Virgil Thomson and Ned Rorem among his friends and wrote about music from Johannes Brahms and Sergei Rachmaninoff to Janis Joplin and Carly Simon. His is not the music of the conventional sonneteer, however, although he made an obligatory gesture or two in that direction. Rather, his poetry, almost without exception, ignores regular rhyme and meter in favor of free verse, appropriate for his emphasis on endless change. His styles of free verse change radically too, from lines of only two or three syllables in his self-styled "skinny poems," providing a slow, even, almost hesitant, occasionally fragmented pace appropriate for the meditative stance of some of these poems, to lines as long as each individual sentence unit requires (in "The Cenotaph"), to lines a page wide or more in the long poems. Line breaks are often capricious, but this very unpredictability allows him some splendid effects. For example, the minimally punctuated "Buttered Greens" has lines which make sense in one way, until the next line indicates that the last part of the preceding line is meant not as a completion of the preceding thought but as the beginning of a new statement: "inside all/ is not con-/ tent, yet/ the chance/ of it is/ there, free." A reader automatically assumes that "free" modifies "chance," but the next line suggests that it modifies the botanical noun: "there, free/ leaves fall." Often he abandons punctuation altogether, and a whole series of sensory impressions flows down or across the page as unmediated sensory input ("A Sun Cab"). Sentence fragments, composed of nouns, adjectives, and prepositional phrases, are frequent in many of these shorter poems, reminiscent of William Carlos Williams, whom Schuyler acknowledged as an early influence.
However, musical aspects are present in occasional devices of structure and sound. Words or images are repeated, like leitmotifs; recurring themes and images are particularly important in the long poems, where depiction of rain or of sites in Washington, D.C., acts both as a cohesive device and as a counterpoint to other concerns in the poem. His free-verse lines often emulate the startling and open structures of much modern music. Finally, Schuyler does not neglect the traditional musical devices of sound; pleasing patterns of alliteration, assonance, consonance, and even exact rhyme (though usually internal and never long-sustained) appear casually in occasional poems such as "Song" and "Just Before Fall."
Most of his poems purport to do no more than map the stream of his consciousness, whether it consists chiefly of external impressions which engage his full attention or of thoughts and feelings and whatever sensory recollections they invoke. Sometimes it is a combination of the two—external impressions giving rise to memories, which are in turn interrupted by more sensory input from the present moment. Schuyler's is very much a poetry of the present. Nearly every poem begins directly in the present tense, often indicating the setting of place, time, and weather; recollections of the past may intrude, described in the past tense as appropriate, but their appearance is strongly grounded in the immediacy of the present moment, rather than being a meditation on "remembrance of things past" or "emotion recollected in tranquillity" undertaken as an end in itself.
Time is certainly a central theme for Schuyler, but with an emphasis quite unlike that of most other poets. It passes as quickly (or slowly) for him as for another, but he does not bemoan its passing. He is not without regrets, but these are for friends who have died, lovers who have left: He accepts his move ahead into age, not with resignation but as merely another stage of life, for "Life will change and/ I am part of it and/ will change too."
Such an attitude informs his two longest poems, "Hymn to Life" and "The Morning of the Poem." Each embraces and celebrates change, the prevailing force in his work, the dominant characteristic of all life itself. In the earlier poem, Schuyler takes the reader with him along the paths of his mind and experiences, recording his various thoughts and sensory impressions as time moves on. It begins the day before spring (that is, in March), then moves imperceptibly into April and May. These shifts occur not with an abrupt, secretarial ripping-off of the old month's calendar page but with the gradualism of nature itself: This seventeen-page poem is not broken into sections as the time passes but reveals each new month's presence only in mid-line, appropriately for the subtle recognition of something new in the air, a change that has occurred while one was watching but was perhaps momentarily distracted, watching the many wonderful details all around, so exquisitely conveyed in this poem.
Such unremarked changes, so lovingly dwelt on,...

Sörskogen was a Swedish progressive rock project Mikael Åkerfeldt of Opeth and Dan Swanö started for fun. Both musicians are known for their wide musical interests. The project was supposedly named after a small community near the Stockholm suburb Huddinge where Mikael practiced with his first band Eruption in the late 1980s. At the Opeth concert on December 18, 2008, Mikael Åkerfeldt claimed to have played soccer for the Sörskogen IF soccer club. Sörskogen is heavily influenced by 1970s prog rock bands, Camel to name but one. Not much is known about the project, except a few references made by Mikael in interviews.
Only one track entitled Mordet i Grottan (The Murder in the Cave) has appeared on the net (with Mikael's permission), though a few more are rumoured to have been recorded. The vocals are sung in Swedish by Mikael. Dan Swanö played drums, bass and keyboards while Mikael Åkerfeldt played the guitar parts and provided the vocals. According to some hearsay, a music video has been created to Mordet i Grottan by Fredrik Oderfjärd but never released.
Mikael never decided to make a proper release, in spite of very professional production and promising material. Some of the ideas from Mordet i Grottan were later reworked by Mikael Åkerfeldt, who borrowed the chorus that later appeared in To Rid the Disease, a song on Opeth's album Damnation.
Rumour has it that three other tracks recorded are: Stupet (The Precipice), Den första Maj (The First of May) and Byan (Swedish slang for "The village"). Dan Swanö said himself that there were no other songs with Sörskogen than Mordet I Grottan.

Rafael agrees new deal to stay at Manchester United until 2016
agrees new deal to stay at Manchester United until 2016
The Brazilian is looking forward to progressing his career with "one of the biggest clubs in football", while brother Fabio is on his way to QPR on loan to gain more experience
Manchester United full-back Rafael Da Silva has signed a new contract until 2016, according to the Brazilian's agent. The 21-year-old, who joined from Fluminense in 2008, made 12 appearances for the Red Devils last season, earning a call-up to the senior international squad in May following an injury to Dani Alves.
The defender's agent, Cassiano Pereira, indicated that Rafael, who featured in Brazil's friendlies against Argentina and Denmark, was delighted to remain at the club and play on the European stage. Pereira told Globoesporte:
"Rafael is very happy to be able to stay at Manchester United, who are one of the biggest clubs in football and are always playing in Europe's biggest competitions. "Besides, they opened Rafael the doors to Europe, where his qualities are appreciated and where he has earned respect and prestige.
Everyone is happy with this renewal." Unlike Rafael, his brother Fabio is not currently in Sir Alex Ferguson's first-team plans. And, Pereira also revealed that the Scot has therefore allowed the Brazilian to move on loan to QPR for the new season.
According to the representative, Fabio rejected offers from other clubs to join a Premier League side and further adapt to the English games. He added: "Fabio is a promising players and he needs to play.
Because of that, Alex Ferguson suggested that he be loaned out to get more experience. "He is a sought-after player because he is still young, and we think that his transfer to QPR was the best decision at the time.
"We received some offers from Germany and Portugal, but he preferred to stay in England to remain in touch with the country's football style and so that he would not have a problem to adapt to it when he returned to United."

WHEELER COUNTY — It was April Fools' Day.
That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.
The warbling gobbles seemed to resonate from every nook and cranny of the dim early morning, echoing near and far in the chilly breeze on an outing several years ago. What had been a subdued start to the day quickly gave way to a humming wave of chirps and cackles that overpowered everything within earshot. There's no doubt there were a few turkeys in this part of the world, but the question remained whether they felt like cooperating or not.
The first birds that meandered by after getting off the roost were some curious hens that made a beeline to the cottonwood tree underneath which I was sitting. They stopped about 30 yards away after following a livestock path, checking out what was what in the low light. They didn't spook, but simply moved off into a dusty clearing adjacent to the motte of trees and weathered laydowns. The next feathered bunch to come passing through was a dozen or so jakes that seemed to be able to talk the talk but not quite walk the walk. They tried to strut and put on airs for all the ladies to see, but they didn't seem to have the dominant behavior of an old boss yet.
Finally, a half-dozen blue- and white-headed mature toms made their way into the arena, cutting up whenever Quincy Weatherly of Salt Fork Outfitters would play the striker eloquently along his slate call behind me. As usual, the hens and jakes gravitated closer than the older gobblers, and the entire bunch eventually headed out into an open field where they hung out for close to an hour.
Every scratch along the slate soon after would elicit some kind of vocalization, but the turkeys seemed to be lukewarm to the whole idea of running in to check out those "other" birds over there that were constant in their ruckus.
After the birds had moved off, Weatherly and I talked turkey.
"Did you see that tom that came down the fence line behind us?" he said. "I heard a poof' and looked over and he was right there. He didn't say a word, but his head was beat white and he was all strutted up. He looked like he was about to pass out."
All I could do was chuckle on my first hunt of a spring turkey season.
Such is the quandary hunters face when chasing after turkeys during the beginning of the spring season: The body is willing, but the heart isn't quite there for our loquacious quarry.
Turkey hunting in Texas brings need to know tips, tactics, regulations
This year again signals a change from when there was a single statewide season. In the southern part of the state, the Rio Grande turkey season began two weekends ago, while in northern counties it begins this weekend.
This year's seasons run the same amount of time, they were just scheduled to hit the "peak" of when gobblers become more active and birds separate from their larger winter flocks to carry out their breeding cycle. Though many hunters in southern counties likely will be scratching their heads about a delay of gobbling activity, there likely will be the same percentage in northern portions of the state who wonder the same thing as their season creeps along.
When it comes to turkeys, there's no set time when they turn on and start coming to hunters' calls. And since weather and range and forage conditions also can play a big factor in the breeding cycle, it often can be hit-or-miss for many hunters looking to attach a tag to a mature bird in early April. There likely will be no shortage of young hens and jakes in most places, making this season one that may not be as solid, but one that likely will set a great foundation for coming years.
That's probably not what most turkey hunters would like to hear, but there are still going to be some better birds out there that will start acting right and coming to calls in the next month. That might be as early as this week or as late as the end of next month.
The only way to know for sure is to get out and park yourself near a roost tree or staging area. The birds will let you know if they're interested in your mechanical musings. If they're not, there's not a whole lot you can do other than try to set up an ambush along a travel route while waiting the birds out.
As the season progresses, your chances of cutting out an amorous gobbler and bringing him closer to you certainly go up, but the apex of activity also diminishes with each passing day.
With that in mind, here are some quick tips that have helped in the past when turkeys proved fickle.
Use the terrain to your favor. Turkeys often don't go through tall or thick brush and utilize alleys along heavier cover. If you can figure out frequented lanes, it will make bringing in an obliging tom somewhat easier.
Use decoys wisely. Sometimes a decoy will bring a bird right in, while other times it can act as a deterrent. If birds stay bunched up and don't respond well to a decoy in the morning, you might not want to stick it out on an afternoon sit.
Stay inside the box. A box call can be an effective tool for many hunters since it is easier to cut out a loud series of cackles than other calls. Especially in windy conditions, it can be the edge you're looking for if the birds don't want to play by your rules.
Stay alert. If birds aren't responding well, you never know when your calls may bring in a silent turkey that was interested but didn't feel like letting his presence be known.
This year's spring turkey seasons are shaping up to be a little tougher when it comes to locating and calling in a mature gobbler. I've got a reason for my first hunt during that previous season, but honestly, turkeys don't care what the date might be.
They can make fools out of us any day of the week.

In my last post, I explained how consigning at Second Time Around works according to its website.
I set up an appointment for this past Tuesday so see if it's really as professional and painless as it says on it's site.
When walking into the store, I was greeted right away by an employee.
I told her I had an appointment and she had me fill out a form with information like my name, address, and phone number to begin setting up my account.
She was very kind and willing to explain the process to me once more just so I fully understood it.
I had a bag of 5 items (even though they said bring 3): a white purse, black BCBG flats, a multi-colored pair of floral shorts, a black and white floral skort, and a pair of grey Aldo flats.
After I finished filling every thing out, she took my bag off my hands and told me that she needed 20 minutes.
It was a small amount of time so I just browsed around until she came back.
In the end, she took 3 items: the floral shorts and two pairs of shoes. Then she explained that the final prices for my items would be available for me online by the end of the day.
My shorts are priced at $15, the BCBG shoes are $25, and the Aldo shoes are $19. If and when my items get purchased I will earn 40% of the profit and I could receive store credit or a check.
If my items don't get sold after 90 days, I can come back to the store and pick them up.
This was the easiest consignment selling experience I have ever had!

Dr Oz Maca For Boosting Energy
Dr Oz recently talked about the numerous benefits of the Vegetable Maca also known as a Peruvian Ginseng. Maca has been used for centuries to boost endurance as well as energy while also said to be a potent aphrodisiac.
Maca Benefits
- Packed with Protein
- Nutrient Rich
- Increase Energy
- Boost Endurance
- Potent Aphrodisiac
Maca for Energy
Even though Maca hasn't been extensively studied in the western world yet scientists are not exactly sure of the mechanisms of action that Maca acts through to increase energy and endurance. One study showed that maca helped reduce muscle fatigue after exercise as well as showing increased activity in animals that ate the vegetable.
Is Maca Right For You
While maca is believed to be safe, some people should avoid maca. Pregnant or lactating women and people allergic to maca or related vegetables like broccoli, brussels sprouts, cabbage and cauliflower should not take maca.
Dr Oz Maca Dosage and Directions
It was recommended to take 1000mgs or 1 gram with breakfast for up to four months.

Lovehoney Chocolate Orange Flavoured Lubricant 100ml
Orange and Orgasmic
Reviewed: 03 February 2016 by usernamessuck, a Gay Going Steady Female
This is not my first time buying one of these products, but I always return to Lovehoney for more! Previously, I have had different flavours (passion fruit and peppermint), so I decided to branch out to this flavour. May I just say, it's a shame it's been discontinued!
I absolutely love everything about this product! That includes the smell, the texture, the taste, the pleasure and the packaging! The bottle makes this product easy to use and easy to make sure you can make the most of every last drop.
Myself and my other half love the use of these lubes when we're together and it provides the extra pleasure and feeling from toys, ensuring hours of great fun and orgasms!
During use, a little goes a long way! After use, there's no sticky uncomfortable feeling, like some other lubes provide.
No matter what other lubes I try, I always find myself coming back to this one. It's the best I've ever used. It really is worth the purchase. It's a shame it's been discontinued, but I guess it'll give me a chance to try some of the other flavours that I'm yet to try!
Overall, a must have essential for both myself and my partner. I couldn't ask for anything more from this product!
- Pros
- The taste, texture, packaging and extra pleasure!
- Cons
- Nothing!
- Bottom line
- An essential for my partner and I! Provides hours of extra fun and better sex!

As per, Lovehoney lubes always hit the spot, and this was no exception. A heavenly mix of my two favourite tastes, I was so excited to use this. And it truly tasted amazing. No artificial tasting chocolate (as can frequently happen in flavoured lubes). It was strong, but not overpowering, but the best part; is that it actually works as a lube.
So many flavoured lubes I have tried have not actually worked as lubes, but this one really does, it was long lasting, so a little really does go a long way, which means a) your bottle lasts longer or b) you can have more sex!
Don't need to tell you which option we've went for, with this delicious lube, my OH can hardly keep herself away!
- Pros
- The smell, the taste, the bottle size, the slickness, it's long-lasting.
- Cons
- Nothing.
- Bottom line
- An essential!

Great taste
Reviewed: 04 January 2016 by karen1982
I've used lubricants before, so I thought I would go for something with a bit of flavour this time, and as a bit of a chocoholic I went for this one.
It has a great taste. Really does feel like it's chocolate orange.
It this also a great lubricant for toys and actual play. It doesn't dissapear quickly like some tend to do.
- Pros
- The taste.
- Cons
- Nothing.
- Bottom line
- Very good.

Summertime, my lifelong favorite. The sunshine seems to broaden creativity :) Very busy this year! I wanted to share with you, little clips of projects in the works >
1. The best project ever-
A condo in the city. The patio view of boats gently floating made me rethink my suburban lifestyle, ha. The owners wanted something really bold and kind of modern. We painted (used to be red!) and purchased every morsel. It has been a true design high.
We bought everything online, and much to our delight, it has been a success. Thank you West Elm, Room&Board, Overstock, CB2, Minted, Horchow, Target, Ballard, ZGallerie, etc. for making us happy.
We spent a long session scouring (for real) Calico Corners for the perfect fabric (bottom) for custom curtains. The color had to be just so and we wanted something more than a plain solid. The fabric is awesome… It has almost a painterly finish.
When I stepped into this artist framing shop with my print, describing a gold ornate frame we were envisioning, the nice man helping me said, "Do you want my opinion?". Sure… He said, "This is way over the top". I replied "PERFECT", we'll take 2… lol
I will have some professional photos taken of this job soon.
2. Major color makeover-
The owner grew tired of this old cream look. But she was really nervous about the change. We tested new color schemes in Photoshop and everyone agreed this was it. There's something about the crisp, white trim. Siding is gray and the shutters are a navy, almost black. Amazing what paint can do!
3. The most impressive paint finish-
This photo does not do it justice. Ralph Lauren's Demin finish.
I had a brief client who was very creative. He had applied Ralph Lauren throughout his home. The suede finish was stunning in it's subtlety. And the denim finish (which they used in their son's room) had me speechless.
Upon this amazing finish, they hung a gallery wall full of vintage paint by numbers, in old wooden frames. I mean how cool is that? The "denim" looks truly denim in a really good way. He said it did take time to apply, but everyone agrees it's amazing!
* I feel so happy when I finally get around to sharing on this blog, stay-tuned for lots more to come. Call me for color and interior design.
Cheers Readers!

CHAPPO playfully befuddle the listener with 'I'm Not Ready'. It's a song full of juxtaposing lyrics, frenetic vocals, and high energy from start to finish. One is immediately catapulted into a spaced-out frenzy of pop and rock.
This theme follows throughout the whole album. 'Future Former Self' is a cosmic body of work where the members of CHAPPO explore the abstract nature of time and the experience it has on the perception of reality. In CHAPPO's world, the concept of time is twisted hopelessly out of focus. Like Rene, the character at the centre of this interstellar journey that is 'Future Former Self', the band seems to have recently travelled back from a distant black hole, bringing with them a kaleidoscope of new and mesmerising sounds.
CHAPPO's releases have been well received and found early radio support from the likes of John Kennedy, Simon Raymond, Jim Gellatly, Steve Lamacq, and Charlie Ashcroft to name a few, and backing from publications such as MOJO, Hi-Fi, Richer Unsigned, GIGsoup, Vulture Hound, FAME Magazine, We Close Tonight, and Howl & Echoes.
CHAPPO were formed in the East Village of New York in 2009 and have since built an enthusiastic and rambunctious following. Splitting the difference between the guitar-driven psychedelia of '60s west coast rock and the spiritual witch doctor moonshine of Dr. John, they tour constantly and have supported the likes of Of Montreal, Big Data, Imagine Dragons, The Flaming Lips.
1) You are currently on tour in the UK, having just played the great escape – how was that for you?
Brighton was a blast. We had a packed house and played a rowdy set. We also got a chance to see the ocean. Brighton is an awesome city, and we'd love to come back. We got to catch a bit of the Europa League final football game at a local pub.
2) We are loving I'm Not Ready – it's the third release from your album… can you tell us a bit more about the making of the album?
This album was our first experience with a proper studio. We had recorded in the past in our living rooms, home studios and experimented with tape. For this album we tried a combination of capturing the live performance but at a legitimate studio with a great live room. We recorded to tape as well.
|3) What's your favourite song to perform from the album?
I'm Not Ready is a fun one to get wild with and dance around and Run Me Into the Ground seems to be a crowd favourite.
We always keep the space fridge lined with glowing purple Moon juice, some anti nausea fog that helps with the gravity float-jag. Hover around and play music in the weightless studio which comes stocked with a floating record player. (Everybody gets a turn DJing) You'll have fun, and it'll be chill.
5) What's next for you guys?
We're having such a good time here in the UK, we might just stick around… We do hope to get back for more touring here soon, but back in New York are gonna play some parties and other fun stuff coming up, and we're in the middle of writing the next batch of songs as well.

Enhanced Horse Health Measures Put in Place at Saratoga
- Aug 21, 2017
- Topics:
Analysis of Saratoga's surface earlier this month revealed that many measurements showed a reducing level of variation, indicating an increase of consistency. This is the key factor in providing a safe racing surface.
Photo: Anne M. Eberhardt/The Horse
Edited press release. Pat Raia contributed to this report.
Two more Thoroughbreds have been euthanized at Saratoga Race Course, in Saratoga Springs, New York, bringing the number of fatalities there to a new record of 17 since the start of the year.
New York State Gaming Commission (NYSGC) records show that the most recent racing fatality occurred on Aug.17 when the 2-year-old filly Sayonara Rose unseated her rider, sustained a fracture in her left front leg, and was euthanized on the track. Two days later on Aug. 19, the unraced 3-year-old colt Travelin Soldier sustained an injury while breezing, which was later determined to be a fracture in his right hind leg, and was euthanized. Both incidents remain under investigation.
On Aug. 21, the NYSGC, New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA), and the New York Thoroughbred Horsemen's Association (NYTHA) announced that they have implemented additional horse health and safety measures immediately at Saratoga, including increased regulatory veterinary presence at the track during training hours, state-of-the-art horse monitoring, and comprehensive trainer education intended to share scientific findings of research into the types of injuries that occur at New York Thoroughbred racetracks and risk and protective factors that can help to prevent injury.
"Our goal is to reduce the number of racehorse deaths and injuries to zero, and we have taken many productive steps toward reaching that goal over the past four years," said New York State Equine Medical Director Scott E. Palmer, VMD, Dipl. ABVP. "However, our work is never done and there will always be challenges that require reexamination and recalibration to effectively protect horses and their riders.
"The commission, as it does with every equine fatality on the grounds of a track in New York state, is actively investigating the circumstances of each incident at Saratoga Race Course," he continued. "This also includes close scrutiny of the track surfaces, exercise history and past performances, individual horse risk factors, and more. NYRA and NYTHA are important partners in this effort. Pending the findings of this investigation, we will do whatever is necessary to prevent such injuries in the future. In the meantime, there are several proactive steps we can implement to make the sport safer for all involved."
Hugh Gallagher, NYRA safety steward, said, "There is no issue more important to NYRA than the safety of our equine and human athletes. That is why NYRA has implemented extensive reforms and made significant investments since 2013 to improve track surface conditions, upgrade equipment, provide vets with more authority to monitor thoroughbred health, establish committees to oversee safety measures, and actively seek out advice and guidance from independent experts and scientists. As a result of these reforms, the number of catastrophic injuries during races occurring on NYRA tracks has been reduced by nearly 50% since 2013. We remain focused on continuously improving the safety of our racing operations. To that end, we are exploring the possibility of opening the main track for training to horsemen earlier in the year."
Added Rick Violette Jr., NYTHA president, "Where safety is concerned, we need to examine every possibility, including a mandate to open all racing surfaces earlier than we have in the past before the start of the race meet. We are all for insisting that everyone involved in New York racing, from the trainers and the owners to the attending and regulatory veterinarians to racetrack management to the state regulators, be held to the highest standards. We all have to do our jobs to the best of our abilities. The litany of programs and initiatives and safety measures are only impressive when they work."
New York state—via the NYSGC, NYRA, horsepersons, and state-licensed racetracks—already employs among the strictest and most comprehensive safeguards in the horseracing industry. These include increased veterinary scrutiny of all horses, complete veterinary autonomy from the racing offices, the strictest equine medication rules in North America, and other measures to ensure the safety and welfare of race horses. The 2012 New York Task Force on Racehorse Health and Safety, chaired by Palmer, established a blue print for all other jurisdictions to follow. New York has implemented all of the recommendations of the Task Force and has continued to adopt new measures as the industry evolves.
New Measures to Augment Industry-Leading Standards
Beyond Saratoga Race Course, as applicable, the below measures are being put into effect at all NYRA tracks and Finger Lakes Race Track:
Additional Commission Veterinarians On-Hand for Training: The NYSGC has stationed an additional regulatory veterinarian on the grounds of Saratoga Race Course during training hours. This doubling of efforts should help ensure that a veterinary presence exists to view horses during busy training hours and confirm that any incidents are appropriately documented and managed.
State-of-the-Art Horse Monitoring: Regulatory veterinarians are using reports provided by The Jockey Club's InCompass Solutions software to examine horses considered to be at an increased risk for injury. A similar process has been implemented at Del Mar Thoroughbred Club, in California, to identify horses that could be at risk. The reports will include horses stabled at Saratoga Race Course and/or Belmont Park that could be vulnerable to injury based upon extensive research findings.
"Equine safety has been and will always be a top priority for The Jockey Club and we are pleased that the New York Gaming Commission and the New York Racing Association are using our Equine Injury Database and our InCompass racing office software," said James L. Gagliano, president and chief operating officer of The Jockey Club.
Comprehensive Owner, Trainer, and Veterinary Education: New York state is one of only a few jurisdictions in North America to require Thoroughbred trainers to obtain continuing education for licensure. The NYTHA, which fully supports this measure, has been an integral partner in this effort. These programs are regularly presented at New York state racetracks throughout the year. The NYSGC's rule requires that all Thoroughbred trainers, including assistant and private trainers, obtain continuing education of at least four hours each year in equine health, welfare, and safety as well as small business, ethical, and human resource topics.
The next continuing education session is scheduled for Aug. 22 at Saratoga Race Course, where Palmer, along with two additional faculty members from Cornell University's College of Veterinary Medicine, will cover:
- Findings of the New York state thoroughbred post-mortem examination program;
- Using risk and protective factors to prevent injury; and
- Fetlock CT to assess proximal sesamoid bone fracture risk (with Heidi Reesnick, VMD, PhD, Dipl. ACVS, and Erin Cresswell, PhD, from Cornell University)
The presentation will be recorded and made available to the public after the event.
NYRA's Safety Procedures and Protocols: All parties continue to monitor the condition of the Saratoga turf and dirt surfaces. NYRA has consistently shown a commitment to implement science-driven best practices to maintain safe surfaces for its equine and human athletes. To meet this goal, NYRA has made significant capital investments to better monitor and maintain track surface conditions.
At all three NYRA racetracks—Saratoga Race Course, Belmont Park and Aqueduct Racetrack—NYRA conducts extensive and continuous testing of our racing and training surfaces before, during, and after each race meet. Along with Michael "Mick" Peterson, PhD, from the Racing Surfaces Testing Laboratory and Director of Ag Equine Programs at the University of Kentucky, NYRA has been a pioneer in creating a maintenance quality system (MQS), which utilizes both daily measurements and enhanced techniques to manage racing surfaces with a goal of creating consistency between all NYRA tracks.
Before any meet, Peterson performs enhanced testing and analysis of the racing surfaces. Those tests include the use of ground penetrating radar that looks at cushion depth, moisture, and composition of racing surfaces, immediately identifying any variations outside pre-determined criteria. His team also performs physical samples of the soil using triaxial sheer testing to maintain target clay, silt and sand ratios on the main track.
Additionally, Peterson inspects the overall performance and consistency using the biomechanical surface tester, which replicates loads and speed of a thoroughbred's leading forelimb at gallop. This test looks closely at vertical and horizontal load on the hoof during impact with the surface.
Peterson's comprehensive review of the racing surface at Saratoga includes:
- Laboratory testing of the track material;
- Inspection of the base and cushion using ground-penetrating radar;
- Inspection of the overall performance and consistency of the surface using the biomechanical surface tester.
At Saratoga Race Course, Peterson conducted these tests before the start of the meet, and again between Aug. 9 and Aug. 11. All measurements, before the meet and during that three-day period, met predetermined criteria for consistency. Furthermore, his analysis revealed that within the predetermined criteria for variation, many measurements showed a reducing level of variation, indicating an increase of consistency, which is the key factor in providing a safe racing surface.
As part of its effort to provide the safest possible racing surface, NYRA utilizes daily measurements of the racing surface, keeps meticulous logs of maintenance work, and monitors and records weather conditions. Before and after each day of racing, NYRA conducts tests of cushion depth, moisture, and surface content to ensure the readings are within predetermined criteria established by the MQS. All maintenance of the track, including watering, harrowing, grading, and other measures are logged and compared with surface measurements and weather reports to provide comprehensive analysis.
All data collected is shared with Peterson in real time, allowing his team to constantly provide analysis and feedback.
NYRA performs daily measurements as part of a collaborative, ongoing monitoring of the surface, including:
- Measurement and evaluation of racetrack depth;
- Measurement and evaluation of racetrack composition;
- Measurement and evaluation of racetrack moisture content;
- Analysis and record keeping of all racetrack maintenance work; and
- Analysis and record keeping of weather events.
Through this commitment to track safety and the MQS, NYRA has earned and maintained accreditation for all three racetracks by the National Thoroughbred Racing Association (NTRA) Safety and Integrity Alliance, which, under the direction of Glen Kozak, NYRA's vice-president of racing surfaces and facilities, have earned "best practice" ratings in virtually every primary area the alliance examines.
NYRA Ongoing Actions: Since 2013, NYRA has collectively implemented extensive reforms to improve the safety of racing operations. NYRA has worked with the state with the same commitment to equine safety. NYRA's catastrophic injury rate, which in 2012 was above the industry average as reported by the Jockey Club, has dropped below and remains below the industry average.
NYRA Catastrophic Injury Rate vs. Jockey Club National Average
|NYRA Average
|National Average
NYRA said this consistency and improvement is attributable to the following policies and procedures it implemented to enhance the safety of its racing operations:
- Created a committee of the Board of Directors that specifically addresses issues of equine safety;
- Created the position of safety steward, one of the first in the North American Thoroughbred industry, and thereafter employed Peterson to enhance equine safety;
- Created a "Horse Watch Detail," which received additional training and has developed expertise in how to properly recognize and monitor the kinds of medications given to horses;
- Supported the NYSGC's efforts to adopt the model rules regarding penalties for multiple offenders;
- Gave NYRA attending veterinarians full and independent authority to scratch a horse at any time for any reason; and
- Created an independent veterinary structure within the NYRA.
All three NYRA tracks have undergone significant capital improvements designed to improve the health and safety of our human and equine athletes. Since 2013, NYRA has invested $56 million on a wide variety of projects that have resulted in safer racetracks and backstretch facilities.
Ongoing NYS Actions: Further reforms enacted since 2013 include:
- Requiring trainers to maintain records of corticosteroid administrations;
- Improving documentation of fatal injuries;
- Setting up standard protocols for post-mortems on horses suffering those injuries; and
- Convening regular meetings of the Equine Safety Review Board, a group which reviews the data associated with any race day equine catastrophic injury.
No Apprentice Jockeys in Steeplechase Races: The National Steeplechase Association recently mandated that apprentice jockeys are no longer permitted to ride in steeplechase races at Saratoga and Belmont.
Amendment to Commission Claiming Rule 4038.5: Commission staff will seek an amendment to the Thoroughbred rule requiring all claimed horses report to the test barn following the race for examination by the NYSGC's veterinarian. The amendment sought will require that any horse determined to have an American Association of Equine Practitioners Grade 2 or greater lameness, or to have bled from one or both nostrils, would be placed on the Vets List. The claim would be voidable at the discretion of the claimant.
Sound Retirement/Responsible Aftercare: The NYSGC, NYRA, and NYTHA, along with owners, trainers, and veterinarians continue to collaborate on a showcase horse retirement model for the entire country. These programs and others like them have found second careers and homes for thousands of racehorses over the past 10 years. The NYTHA's TAKE2 program sponsors 350 horse shows each year to highlight the retired Thoroughbred racehorse, while its Take The Lead program facilitates and subsidizes the retirement of any Thoroughbred racing or stabled at a NYRA track. The Commission endorses the work of these agencies and the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance, which funds and accredits aftercare and retirement facilities across the country.
On Aug. 29 at 12:30 p.m., at Empire State College (111 West Avenue, Saratoga Springs, NY), the NYSGC and its partners will discuss ongoing aftercare initiatives. This event—open to the public—will provide horse trainers, owners, connections, and the public with the opportunity to learn about the importance of retiring a horse before it suffers an injury. The many options for retirement and aftercare in New York will also be discussed. The Commission will also hear directly from the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance and operators of accredited aftercare organizations in New York state.

O'Rielly's Rainforest Retreat
Its always an adventure. It's especially an adventure when winter is just around the corner because it really really can get freezing up there. And it's not caqlled a rainforest retreat for nothing
Jenny and I popped up to the top of the mountain a short time ago to spend the day with Minty, (Jacinta to you guys) and Kurt and I must admit, I was looking forward to the wedding day for a looooong time.
How couples meet
and how fate works to lead to a wedding day is always fascinating. Here is Jacinta and Kurt's story in Jacinta's own words…………….
"Kurt and I met and became friends in high school. Soon after that Kurt left school to work. We kept in touch and then I eventually asked Kurt out. He responded a week later and said yes. I was 14 going onto 15 and Kurt just turned 16. He use to meet me after school and double me home on his pushbike. 🙂
We were high school sweethearts.
A couple years later we moved out together into our own place and raised our dogs and bird. We managed for years to work together during the day at the same workplace and come home at night still in love.
The proposal:
'Twas the night before Christmas nearly 6 years later, Kurt gave 12 gifts of Christmas to me. The final gift was an unexpected surprise. To find him kneeling with a ring in his hands, and the question "will you marry me?" He didn't tell anyone about it and was a big surprise for the whole family on Christmas day.
After many setbacks and change of dates, we finally got married after 8years together. We kept everything about the wedding a secret from our guests, except the date, to meet at the front of our place and that it was our wedding.
We organised the wedding and reception ourselves. With handmade invitations, decorations and vintage decorations collected over the years.
We definitely started our married life on a high at the top of the mountain, with the colours of the rainbow, and finishing with a bang of fireworks.
For a young couple we have been through a lot of tough times and have lived like no other, but we have come out of it closer, stronger and definitely appreciate each other and everything we have now."

This work is valuable as history, containing as it does contemporary information on the period after 278 A.D. It was used widely during the Middle Ages, and the existence today of nearly 200 manuscript copies is evidence of its past popularity.
Paulus Orosius's masterpiece is Historiae Adversus Paganos, the only history book that he wrote, which allow us to gain an insight into the historiographical methodology of the Spanish priesthood. It is not possible to be certain as to when it was written as there is no single theory that is unanimously accepted by all historians.


text: The combo will send anyone to the bathroom for hours, writhing in agony, sweats, tears, like food poisoning does to your body.. Don't believe me? I didn't either until it happened to me! I should've listened to that old chinese lady who warned me years ago, but I forgot- had crab cakes at Black Angus (and they use real crab, big chunks too)..then went home..had a persimon before bed..and at 3 AM after very bad stomach pains- IT HIT ME..I should've known better!!!!!!! I forgot!!!! Her exact words were "If you hate someone give them crab and persimons" BUT what she should have said was If you love yourself, you'll stay away from it! If anyone wants to try it --I dare you! No I quadruple dare you Anyone have any other food myths they wanna digress on?

Has William Blake's "THE LAMB" any symbolic significance?
- print Print
- list Cite
William Blake`s `The Lamb` is one of the Poems of Innoncene. On a literal level the lamb is young, and therefore innocent. On a symbolic level, this poem refers to Christian theology.
On a general level, the lamb, because beast, not human, has not participated in eating of the Tree of Knowledge and is thus innocent and unfallen. The white colour of its fleece signifies purity.
More specifically, in Christian iconography, the lamb refers to Jesus, who is the `Lamb of God who taketh away the sins of the world.`The Jews would sacrifice lambs on Passover, lambs that had to be perfect and unspotted. Jesus, as the only man born without sin, was the human equivalent of the perfect lamb, `(òne perfect sacrifice and oblation for the sins of the whole world in the Book of Common Prayer) and his sacrifice reconciled God and man.
Since the Church of England was the state church when Blake was writing, the two major sources for Christian theology with which you must be familiar to unsterstand his work are The Book of Common Prayer and The Authorized Version of the Bible.

You put a lot of young, good-looking people in one place and it's a recipe for romance...or at least a few one-
But in this new age where there's an app for everything, athletes are reportedly taking to Tinder to try to score during the games.
"Tinder in the Olympic Village is next level," US snowboarder Jamie Anderson revealed to Us Weekly. 'It's all athletes! In the mountain village it's all athletes. It's hilarious. There are some cuties on there."
"There was a point where I had to be like OK, this is way too distracting," she said of using Tinder. "I deleted my account to focus on the Olympics."
Many athletes, however, haven't and Tinder seems to be heating things up for a lot of Sochi visitors during the winter Olympics!

Ok, so Pinterest is the hot thing right now in social media, we know that. I can barely read an industry blog or news story without hearing about it.
There's tons of advice developing about the best way to leverage the site, and much of that will change and evolve as we all figure out how people are really going to use this new social network.
After all, the web is a living, breathing, wild beast, and sometimes new websites, even social networks, succeed in spite of their own strategies, by virtue of people using them differently than their founders intended.
Social Media Surprise
Recall that Mark Zuckerberg was a bit suprised by the extent to which people wanted to post pictures on Facebook, vs how he originally envisioned the site. This prompted FB to expand and improve the photo posting and tagging functionality of that site (and, no doubt, increase their server space), to accommodate the massive interest in that particular type of sharing.
And recall that Twitter never invented the #hashtag on their own. No one knows who did, although many claim credit, but it's clear that the Twitter-verse grew its use organically, as early adopters discovered that they needed a way to tag keywords to create more focused ways of searching the site and following trending content. Twitter responded and quickly made changes to encourage the use of hashtags, which are now central to the Tweeting experience.
So now we have Pinterest, where you can quickly find 100 different chocolate-chip cookie recipes, or 100 different pairs of Jimmy Choos, or 18 different pictures of David Bowie to post on your "Fave Artists" board. The fervor surrounding this site reminds me of 2007 and 2008 when Twitter really took off to the mainstream, and brands scurried to figure out how to leverage the platform for their own purposes.
Companies and brands are already all over Pinterest, and right now there's a bit of a land-grab going on. People are following just to get re-followed, and pinning and "liking" everything in sight, just in hopes of getting a followback. I pinned my client's booking agency site today, only to see that someone named "Victoria's Secret" went and "liked' it, which makes no sense at all, but goes to show that some over-caffeinated social media marketing intern right now is at her desk, tasked with grabbing attention anywhere they can get it by pinning like mad (**Update: the Victoria's Secret page that liked my post has since been removed, either because it was not the real VS or because Pinterest doesn't want pure brand pages**).
Of course this behavior is par for the course on all other social media, but the speed and excitement with which it's happening right now on Pinterest is pretty amazing, and makes it worth getting on board (yes, a pun, sue me) soon to establish a beachhead.
How to Use Pinterest for Your Brand… at least for now
Pinterest strategy will certainly evolve as we learn exactly how all these millions of new users actually behave on the site, and how they regard and reshare promotional content. If you have a brand to promote, and if you also have the benefit of being a human person, then here's some quick tips you can do to get started right away:
1. Join Pinterest Twice: Setup an account in your own name, and another one as your company name… in general, it's always a good idea to lock up your Brand's username on a new social site, even if you're not going to use it, just to keep it away from others. You'll have to request an invite but at the moment it's not hard to get it.
2. Link Accounts: I linked my personal account to my Facebook account, and my business account to my Twitter. This gives me some freedom to be a little sillier with the posts I make on the personal account, since they will re-post to Facebook.
3. Setup Boards: Create a few boards, and re-pin a bunch of things from other people… you don't want to just self-promote at first, and you need to get activity going so that people see who you are and follow you back.
4. Share Fun and Crazy Stuff: Pinterest is all about photos and interesting images, so you have to have something on the page worth sharing visually. If the site you want to promote doesn't have good photos, add them first, and make as much "Pinbait" (yes, clear attempt to coin a phrase… sue me as long as you link to me ;-)) as you can. The interesting thing that seems to separate Pinterest right now is the simple accumulation of linked content that occurs without people actually visiting the links, or being aware of the page they are even on… I have re-pinned recipes that I plan to check out later, but have not visited the page they're on, and may never, but there they are, on my board.
5. Last, start following people widely, by re-pinning their content, and following their pins, and liking their content… most people will follow back and that will expose them to your pins and get them in front of the photos that you've included from the site.
We'll have to see where this goes… Pinterest may have finally cracked the code of how to make a mainstrem social bookmarking site that people actually use as a resource, rather than a collection of links that never get revisited or shared. There's tons of social bookmarking sites, but let's face it, there haven't been any good ones. Pinterest may be that one.
Effects on SEO are uncertain (the links are no-follow), but if there's a multiplying effect to be had from posting your own quality content, then there's real traffic to be had, and that's the type of think that generates links later, as people discover, read, and re-share what you have to offer.
All Aboard!

Helping you make the best decision for the health of your pet means giving you the information you need to make that decisions. Take a look at our responses to these frequently asked questions for easy access to some need-to-know information. If you don't find the answer you're looking for, simply contact us and we will be in touch with you soon.
Did you know that dog can catch the flu too? There are 2 strains of canine influenza, H3N8 and H3N2. H3N2 was first recognized in the US in March 2015 with an outbreak in Chicago and subsequent spread to many areas throughout the US. A vaccine for H3N2 was just released, however it is currently not widely available. We currently offer vaccines for H3N8. We recommend vaccinating your dog against influenza, especially with the holiday season approaching. Many people travel over the holidays and frequently board their dogs or have relatives' dogs visiting which can increase potential spread of disease. The flu vaccine is not 100% protective, but as with the human flu vaccine it helps prevent illness, lessen severity of clinical signs if infected, and shortens length of illness. Please contact us for more information about canine influenza and vaccination.
Answer: Much of the information you will read on the Internet is inaccurate. We recommend that you use the site www.veterinarypartner.com to get information on any questions you may have. You can also call us during our regular business hours and we will be happy to answer any questions.
Answer: Before you give any over the counter medications we would strongly recommend you call us. If it is after hours call the Pet Emergency Clinic of Pitt County at 252-321-1521. Many over the counter medications are toxic to animals. Dogs and cats are NOT furry people.
Answer: First, volunteer or shadow at a veterinary hospital to experience firsthand what a veterinarian does on a daily basis. It isn't all puppies and kittens, it's important to experience firsthand the diversity of veterinary medicine. Second, volunteer at an animal shelter or humane society in order to get more animal experience. If you have the opportunity to work at a veterinary clinic this is also helps when applying to veterinary school. Finally, understand the reality of veterinary medicine; for example, a career in veterinary medicine is highly respected by the public, but falsely viewed as an extremely high-paying job. In addition, veterinary school is very costly, lengthy, and challenging — you have to work hard, but it all pays off in the end.
Answer: I simply like it and never find it boring. I enjoy meeting people and their pets, so I felt that a career consisting of both is perfect. I like the puzzle—say the challenge—of figuring out what is wrong with the patient and how to treat them. I love making the quality of an animal's life better, and, thus, their family's life better. Therefore, I found that veterinary medicine was the overall best choice for me.
