Reality star Kim Kardashian was shocked to learn she was pregnant with Kanye West's baby while she was meeting with infertility specialists.
The rapper announced the couple was expecting a baby last month, and the mum-to-be admits she was pleasantly surprised when she heard the news – since doctors told her she might have trouble conceiving, just like her sister Khloe Kardashian.
During an appearance on the Today show, she said, "It's kind of a miracle that I did get pregnant… I know Khloe has been very open about her fertility issues and I think I was always really kind of quiet about mine – and I have similar issues.
"So it was a pleasant surprise when so many doctors were telling me one thing and then the opposite happens. And that's just an exciting moment, you can't plan for things like that. I think it's just such a blessing knowing my circumstance… The best surprises just happen when you don't plan."
The 32 year old, who is due in July, is still legally married to her basketball star ex Kris Humphries, but she isn't ruling out walking down the aisle with West when their divorce is finalised.
She added, "(Marriage is) something that we (West and I) talk about, but I think just right now (we're) focusing on the baby."

TSTC Talks Turbine Safety
By: Kristin Anderson
Updated: May 8, 2012
Wind turbine technicians put themselves in situations that can be dangerous. That's why TSTC teaches their students real-life lessons about day-to-day safety.
"Get the students familiar with the hazards around them. As well as build in a sense of awareness around them," said Plantier
Though storms seem like the biggest threat, the height and the electricity is what can be most dangerous, and that's what makes technicians a rare breed.
"They face all kinds of dangers. This is what makes the field itself so lucrative in nature," he said.
And after yesterday's lightning strike, workers are reminded to stay clear of turbines in storm, even though situations like yesterday are pretty rare.
"Typically storms don't just pop up on you unannounced," said Plantier.
But wind turbines continue to be a part of a booming industry in West Texas - that's why TSTC is constantly working on instilling safety so that it is second nature for their working graduates.
"It's a hazardous environment all around but as long as you're working within the guidelines of the safety protocols that are put in place, it's not as bad as one might think. But that's something that they should be more focused on," said Plantier.

Editor's Note: The following is an excerpt of Fareed Zakaria's column in this week's TIME Magazine, which you can read in full here, behind a paywall.
By Fareed Zakaria
"Mass incarceration on a scale almost unexampled in human history is a fundamental fact of our country today," writes the New Yorker's Adam Gopnik. "Over all, there are now more people under 'correctional supervision' in America - more than 6 million - than were in the Gulag Archipelago under Stalin at its height."
Is this hyperbole? Here are the facts. The U.S. has 760 prisoners per 100,000 citizens. That's not just many more than in most other developed countries but seven to 10 times as many. Japan has 63 per 100,000, Germany has 90, France has 96, South Korea has 97, and Britain - with a rate among the highest - has 153....
This wide gap between the U.S. and the rest of the world is relatively recent. In 1980 the U.S.'s prison population was about 150 per 100,000 adults. It has more than quadrupled since then. So something has happened in the past 30 years to push millions of Americans into prison.
That something, of course, is the war on drugs. Drug convictions went from 15 inmates per 100,000 adults in 1980 to 148 in 1996, an almost tenfold increase. More than half of America's federal inmates today are in prison on drug convictions. In 2009 alone, 1.66 million Americans were arrested on drug charges, more than were arrested on assault or larceny charges. And 4 of 5 of those arrests were simply for possession....
Bipartisan forces have created the trend that we see. Conservatives and liberals love to sound tough on crime, and both sides agreed in the 1990s to a wide range of new federal infractions, many of them carrying mandatory sentences for time in state or federal prison. And as always in American politics, there is the money trail. Many state prisons are now run by private companies that have powerful lobbyists in state capitals. These firms can create jobs in places where steady work is rare; in many states, they have also helped create a conveyor belt of cash for prisons from treasuries to outlying counties.
Partly as a result, the money that states spend on prisons has risen at six times the rate of spending on higher education in the past 20 years. In 2011, California spent $9.6 billion on prisons vs. $5.7 billion on the UC system and state colleges. Since 1980, California has built one college campus and 21 prisons. A college student costs the state $8,667 per year; a prisoner costs it $45,006 a year.
The results are gruesome at every level. We are creating a vast prisoner underclass in this country at huge expense, increasingly unable to function in normal society, all in the name of a war we have already lost....

You and few more like you should be tied to a nuclear missile and fired on Iran etc and then you would be a first Marty for the great cause you are pleading others to fulfill.
Alarmist! Deal with the log in your eye before you talk of the speck in someone else' eye.
this is a true statement if you are a jew, and if you are nazi then jews are the terrorist, so lets get along.
So, when are you leaving? I hope you're not another one of those chickenhawks eager to send someone elses kids to fight your battles. You're not just going to sit on your sofa and watch on CNN are you? Again.
We're not interested in your words. That won't do anything. Get over there and make it your job to stop Iran and those mullahs. Maybe when you're done you can get rid of the Christian mullahs here as well.
Don't forget to write.
Dude, I think you misunerstood the context of this article – the US has 99 problems but iran aint one. Or actually shouldnt bee. Why is US trying to save the world when there are even more severe problems within the contry itself. US should get back to the isolation-politics.
you probably need to take a breath first before spewing nonsense without any factual research or solid support to back it up.
Hasn't anyone ever told you not to feed the trolls...
All the resources that are squandered chasing school kids for downloading music that's played on the radio for free or smoking a joint should be used to root out bribery and corruption in government.
Look out for Iran, they already stole this guy's caps lock key.
troll level = -1
If only Ronald Reagan hand't sent US contractors over to Iran in the 80's to build their nuclear power plants with our technology. And you are scared of Iran? Scariest country in the world is the US....and I served my country so don't say I'm a hater. I'm just pragmatic.
You are stupid !
The real terrorists are the US, England, & Israel.... The Fourth Reich.
As much as i agree with you, please don't call the collective United Kingdom "England". There's four countries. One of them is called England, however we are united under the term of the United Kingdom. Thus any foreign politics are done under a British, not an English banner. It's like calling the US Texas.
Sincerely, a welsh-american.
Doncha hate it when cousins marry?
This guy works for military contractor. Some company, which will take over billions of our tax money on yet another boogie man. This is not a statement, this is sales pitch. Thank you, sir, will call you once the real threat is actually there.
Please learn how to flip burgers for now. World piece is on.
syria killed 14,000 civilians to date bashar al asad is war criminal along with russia leaders and iran leaders who pay and give weapons to syria and hizboallah.
iran killed more than 120,000 civilians in iran, iraq, lebanon and syria.
all those are terrorists why usa is silent, SILENCE IS CRIME......HELPING RUSSIA IS CRIME.....HELPING SYRIA AND IRAN IS CRIME AGANIST HUMANITY.....
Offer your services to US army and ask them to send you to the front- line so you can taste the Iranian blood first hand. Are you trembling?
The Bush administration killed over a 100,000 Iraqi civilians and over a million Iraqi's in total in an unjust war from 2003 to 2008. I am pretty sure he is playing golf or sipping tea by the poolside somewhere right now!
Это америка стала центром тероризма. Без ее участия ничего не происходит в мире.
Ваша цель стравливать всех друг с другом и на их костях строить свою империю.
Ну почему, как руский так полный идиот.
Re Russian comments; why when it's Russian it's always an idiot?
whts this column have to do with iran syria or lebanon. p
Fareed, as you point out, there is a HUGE incentive to states to maintain this status quo, plus, with so many conservatives voting in elections, I predict there will NEVER be any backing off from America's tone-deaf "war on drugs", not even to legalize marijuana. You know how it's done in America – sens and reps are in the pockets of the lobbyists, and this prison lobbyist situation is no exception. Indeed, many conservative Americans are PROUD of the outrageous incarceration rate in this country. Their only interest is in reducing important public benefit programs like Medicare and Medicaid, and in cutting spending for ALL programs that don't benefit their rich capitalist patrons. That's the sorry state of affairs in conservative-dominated America.
Quite true, ProgressivesRule. These right-wing fanatics are indeed quite proud of the high rate of incarceration in this country. They seek to use these statistics along with all these useless and unnecessary wars to prove just what "superheroes" they are". It's all right-wing baloney and some of these conservatives are no better than the criminals themselves!!!
It's all about bragging how efficient the authorities are in combating crime. Very often it's the small fish that they catch and fill the prisons with.
Both conservatives and liberals are to blame for this war on drugs, and particularly for cannabis prohibition. In fact, quite a few conservatives have come out calling for legalisation or decriminalisation of cannabis. Ron Paul and Pat Robertson are but two recent examples.
David is spot on. This isn't Red vs. Blue, conservative vs. liberal. This is us vs. a group of powerful people looking to get paid at our expense. That is the thing about donkeys and elephants, their $#!& smells the same: bad.
Perhaps economic realities and some courageous youth movements with society's new instantaneous ability to take up new & just causes will change things.
It would be curious to see what the education looks like. Compare these developed countries with high incarceration rates, to those with low incarceration rates. I'm willing to bet the level of education is higher in those with low. It's no secret the U.S. is lagging far behind other developed countries and it's not only a huge problem for the job market, but socially as well.
Prisons are now big business even in developing countries. Privatization is a real curse on today's economy. It makes the rich hyper rich and the poor a lot worse and ... pay.
Quite true Noureddine, quite true.
It's called the prison-industrial complex. For it to succeed it need a lot of "criminals" – usually accomplished by making what should be legal behavior become a "crime" (victimless at that).
I think it's a little more complicated than just the war on drugs. At the same time the war on drugs began, there was a dramatic increase in the privatization of prisons. The corporations that run the prisons and the lobbyists for police and prison organizations need prisoners to exist. Legalizing marijuana would mean a loss of business. It's ALWAYS about the money.
The FDA, The Prison Industrial complex, the DEA , the ATF , the CIA and all off there corporate benefactors stand to lose greatly from the legalization of marijuana. Its an uphill climb but if they don't give the people their weed we may actually finally be able to organize enough people to take back power from the entrenched techno aristocrats.
There are consequences for legalizing drugs too. If you go to Copenhagen, you have to worry a lot more about low level crime because people are desperate for money to sustain their addictions. Drugs lower productivity. However, Fareed is right that we are spending vast amounts of resources in our war on drugs. We are financing organized crime by keeping drugs illegal because if drugs were legal, open market trade would become cheaper and safer than dealing through gangs.
Marijuana, unlike most other legal (such as alcohol and tobacco) and illegal drugs, is not physiologically addictive.
Neither is MDMA, Mushrooms, or LSD. All of which are safer than Marijuana.
One of the main effects of the prohibition of drugs is the gangs induced by the traffic are the best support to terrorism that feeds on its enormous gains. Internationally.
Excellent article!
fair sentencing act passed by obama is a decent step. and some states are relaxing their marijuana laws.
i think decriminalization of marijuana combined with mandatory drug rehab/treatment and some kind of consumption tax will be worth trying.
i dont think congress will act so boldly. only states and local governments with local public consensus can show the nation what to do. just like gay marriage issue.
Weed, should be legal.
Weeds are legal, you should see my yard.
"Since 1980, California has built one college campus and 21 prisons".....Not to be picky but there have actually been 4 new public college campuses since 1980 in CA. UC Merced (2005), Cal State Channel Islands (2002), Cal State San Marcos (1988), and Cal State Monterey Bay (1994).
We are a Christian nation. We demand harsh punishment for those who break rules. We don't want to pay for university because we value ignorance. We want our money spent on prisons and weapons to invade islamic countries in order to continue the 1500+ Christian Crusades.
sorry real truth, but we are not a chiristian nation. The first amendment openly states that we have no official religion in this country, unlike most of the states in the middle east.
The issues a re a little bigger than religion and punishment.
Admittedly, Rick Santorum would like to disagree with you and the First Amendment. I'm sure many others in government share his opinion.
Ridiculous, I know...
Um, I think the sarcasm might have went over your head. Continuing the crusades should have been your clue.
Anytime your Prison population rises that dramatically it is an indicator of bigger social problems within the country.
1. we are locking people up for crimes like possession of marijuana that should not be spending extended amounts of time in prison
2. typically most crime is a result of financial inequity within a system and lack of opportunity for those that are committing the crimes.
3. with less and less work available for people with a high school education or less it is creating an increasingly desperate situation for people in the lowest income brackets, crime is a byproduct.
4. I also feel that in the legal profession there is a tendency to target "blue collar " crime versus " white collar" crime. Many DA's "run up their numbers" on simple drug convictions.
5. It is also an indictment of our schools and our loss of core family values which is another of the roots of the growing drug problem in the US which gets targeted by law enforcement with greater frequency than other possible types of crime .............
I could go on and on, its not a liberal or conservative issue , its an American issue that needs a good hard look at reform and change.
this is why the country is so villified... we say freedom but search for opportunities to feed the prison industrial complex. keeping slave labor to skew statistics and fool people into thinking the government actually has concern for their safety... http://redd.it/r39tz
Yes pretty bad news, we are treating are prisoners better than our children. Oh, then we also have recenty passed into law the California Dream Act. Give away free education to illegal immigrants and on top of that were shutting down Sonoma State Univerisity for spring semester because of lack of funds. World gone mad, unions have built this country and CCPOA and Calpers which are correctional officers/ Police officers union and Teachers and educators union. Two of the most powerfull unions in the "Country"... Blow it all up before it blows itself up. Needs to be fixed Badly...
$9,863 = cost of educating a child in California. $47,102 = cost of housing an inmate in a California prison. Not having an educated enough workforce to pay for housing those inmates? Priceless...
Why is the country that claims to be the best and most forward thinking always the last to figure out it's problems?
good post!
i didnt think you would write my suggestion
To many hotshot lawyers trying to make a lot of money and fame at our expense! We need to take out behind the barn and WELL!
With all due respect to Fareed Zakaria, the real issue is not incarceration for drug use. The issue is Why are so many Americans "using" illegal drugs. That's what needs to be examined.
Maybe you have not noticed, but the entire economy runs on the profits from illegal drugs.
How do banks and Wall Street make most of their money? Through laundering illegal drug money.
How does the CIA make most of its money for its operations colluding with private companies such as Google? It's profits from facilitating the drug trade.
I'm sure the CIA, Wall Street, and the big banks will just sit back and let the naive peasants vote on legalizing drugs......NOT!
Perhaps they should make prison a horrible place to be again rather than the luxury it's become today.
And the killings. Don't forget the killings. The American state has developing country levels of state killings of convicted felons. Only China, Saudi Arabia and a few middle Eastern and African dictatorships compare with America on state killing rates.
How about playing online poker, should we put people in jail for that? Washington State believes so. It is a class C felony to play online poker in the state of Washington(15 year sentence). Don't worry about poker players though, because they can just go play poker at the tribal casinos. See the world is in balance. People shouldn't play online poker because you can play at the casinos who donate money to politicians. It's the biggest no brainer. All online poker players should be in jail.
If the USA will not stop killing people in name of democracy and freedom and will not stop producing terrorists to defeat its enemies, it will soon become south America.Taliban were produced to defeat Russia in Afghanistan and to win the cold war.American people should wake up and face the truth of crime rate increase in USA.See the CNN report on how much drug Afghanistan is producing now as compared to when Taliban were ruling.One can easily find out what Mr Bush has done for drug masters to rule the world.
Would like to read the entire article here at CNN. Nice to see CNN finally making an effort at presenting the facts to the American public that the War on Drugs is a total failure. Of course the statistics don't show the number of innocent people killed as a result of this insanity. Imagine this: You are a father of a 3 year old and are scheduled to have a custody meeting in three days. A police officer in a state that has a Medical Marijuana Law thinks he smells marijuana and notifies Child Protective Services, who in turn obtains a court order to remove the child from you. When CPS along with the police arrive at your house, you put up a fight about the removal of your child and are shot dead in front of your child by the officer. The irony, the toxicology report shows that you are clean, no alcohol, no drugs, no marijuana in your system. The officer isn't charged with a crime, because the officer claimed self defense. My bet: a vast majority of Americans would put up a fight to keep their children from being ripped from their arms. Since I see more than one person providing a link I will too.
Michigan Father Killed in Marijuana Child Removal Incident
Prohibition causes more harm than good, but prohibitionists fail to understand that. End the war on drugs. Legalize it.
What percentage of the prison population is
Life without parole
non violent
Drug possession
Now take all non violent put an ankle bracelet on them charge them a fee and send them home where they can go to and from work to home and that's it. Let a computer monitor their where abouts every five minutes.
next all non citizens deliver them to law enforcement in their native country. Let their own country pay for their incarceration.
Now for those with life without parole we find a piece of land five miles on a side no people on that land and put up a triple fence, middle fence electrified, with cameras, motion sensors, vibration sensors. Enough guards to keep the fence under observation with no guards inside the fence. Hand the felon a pack with garden seeds and hand tools for working the soil and put them through the fence where they can take care of them selves. No fly zone above the place with automatic shoot down.
Then dismantle the war on poverty. That is the biggest single factor among minorities breaking up families and putting young men in prison.
The above should save this nation at least half the current cost of our prison system and leave the prison population at or below 10% of what it was.
of course the reason usa has hi count of inmates is because the inmates and their familys have
conned the folks into abolishing death for bad crimes, and instead throw them out on the
streets too early --- obama, the man who siad he was gonna change everything fumbled
on this too....... he should have made admin law that law enforcement officers be given 2 pistols
one each hip and a sawed off shotgun 12 guage 0000 so when any criminal gave any lip
or any resistance our armed guys could blast away until the dummy stopped moving, etc etc
maybe we will some day get a president with balls of steel who is not afraid of his own shadow
and anyway spends all his time sucking up to foreigners who have pots of loot so he can honeydip
his hands into their loot and walk away with some without the dummiies knowing or as some
upfront payoff for bribes ongoing, one never knows....
Fared Zakaria does not get his reports of the news corrct because all he does is read the news published in India (east India) where he is from so he can translate into usa language and then mickey mouse his report so looks good, i.e. he
is good at window dressing, dumb as to discovering real news, and has scrambled brains to where he can not
figure out day from night nor if he is in east India or downtown new york city - o well ho hum ....................
Your commentary was misleading on Sunday April 1, 2012 on the number of incarcerated persons in the USA, with private business running our prisons. You pointed to California with its high cost to incarcerate a prisoner. The truth in California it is the high cost of the public service unions, which control California prisons and contributed large amounts of money to the California Politicians in return for lucrative public servant contracts. We recently saw the effects of this when Governor Davis was recalled in California, in part because of his relationship specifically with the State's Prison Guard Union. Just look at the cost per prisoner across the states. Private business has nothing to do with California prisons including the medical services.

This seems like a good, specific example of one of those usability issues people are always handwaving about.

As you saw in my recent fall foliage article, I was in the heart-stoppingly gorgeous middle-of-nowhere, New Hampshire for my birthday. Throughout the weekend, the theme of "unplugging" and "being cut off from civilization" recurred… in part because my husband's friend decided to live for 24 hours on a raft and boat.
Let us call this friend "Cory" to mask his identity. See that lake in the photo, above? See the raft forty feet from the shore with a boat tied to it? That's where Cory lived and slept for over twenty-four hours. Yes, that is a BBQ grill on the raft. When you live on a pond for 24 hours, you must bring the essentials.
"Bring a sleeping bag when you drive up to New Hampshire," Cory instructed my husband before the trip. "I reckon it'll get drafty on the ol' raft." Hearing these words, I shivered. What if Cory rolled off the edge of the raft in the middle of the night? Imagine that freezing, watery wake-up!
Was this raft-home idea crazy? Not necessarily. As Cory waved at us from the heart of the pond, the White Mountains rippled their purple support. Clouds changed color and skimmed the lake. Rainbow autumn leaves cheered Cory on. What better place to watch it all than from the middle of a body of water?
Back on land, I actually felt just as stranded as Cory, if not more. You see, I have a seriously crazy Internet and blogging addiction, and three days in rural New Hampshire with no web (besides the spider kind, of which there were plenty) was like, WHOA. Just as Cory may have gazed longingly at land from his raft, I stared at my signal-less iPhone, craving.
The scenery was stunning, but I was in pain. What had I expected upon withdrawal from my constant level of Internet use? Some sort of white light of peace and happiness, I think. You see, articles about the "importance of unplugging" have swarmed the Internet lately, from the New York Times to USA Today.
All of these "Unplugging is Important!" articles sing the same thing: Our brains are getting messed up and deprived from constant Internet use, and thus it's essential we give ourselves time without the web to reboot and become one with the universe again. These articles imply that unplugging will make us feel better and more connected.
Frankly, I don't buy it. Sure, it was nice to unplug for the first few hours, but after that I just wanted to get back to work and to widespread connecting. For me, Internet use is about love, friendship, and being in touch with amazing people around the world. As you can see from these photos, I appreciated the heck out of New Hampshire's foliage… and I appreciate it one hundred times more now that I'm able to use the Internet to share the scenes with readers like you!
As the sun began to set on Sunday night, Cory checked his watch, hopped in his canoe, and set his toe on land, having triumphantly completed 24 hours on water. "Geez," he marveled, "it's weird to be standing without swaying from waves!" He made some swaggering statements about heading back out to the raft for 48 more hours, but we knew he couldn't wait to get to the shower and real mattress. Similarly, you should have heard my squealing as our car headed home on the highway and my iPhone suddenly showed two, then three, then five bars of reception. "HELLO, WORLD!" I sighed passionately, and proceeded to dive into my 538 waiting emails like a lion tearing through juicy zebra meat.
So what is your take on all this, reader? How do YOU feel about physical "unplugging" and cyber "unplugging"? Do you find it helpful or painful? And most importantly: How long could YOU live on a raft in a New Hampshire pond? I eagerly await your responses… now that I am happily back online!

Wow these are some GORGEOUS photos. I love photos from Autumn time – so many colours and so much vibrancy. Nice one!!
Thanks so much, Tom!
I like to unplug as much as I can when I vacation – even if it's just a weekend away. I typically find I need a full day or two away from a computer to unplug – just being away for a few hours isn't enough (I'll crave the internet the way you did). It's hard, but every now and then I try to have weekend days where I don't touch my computer other than in the morning to check my email.
Ooo, useful, concrete strategy! Thanks for sharing it!
Thank you!
These photos are stunning!
Big thanks!
Simply stunning photos and you had me at "unplugged".
Beautiful photos! And I am all for unplugging like this.
I really don't know what I can say that hasn't already been said but wow… great shots. I'm looking to do some of that.. albeit from a car and driving by (so, maybe not at all like that haha) this weekend in the Adirondacks. Hopefully there are still some leaves on the trees by then!
Good luck leaf chasing!
Awesome photos! I love to unplug for a bit when travelling, Cole finds it a bit harder especially with our live blogging we have been trying to do. But I truely believe you can never properly relax unless you are unplugged.
Ahhh, interesting!
Once again, incredible photos. I've done some crazy things on my many travels but 24-hours on a raft has never occurred to me, simply brilliant! 24-hours on a….. – could be a good traveling theme.
Love it!!!!
Awesome shots! Makes me miss New England in the fall!
It's a great area!
Wow you ARE connected! That was fast! haha
You got me
I feel it's very healthy to unplug every once in awhile. The problem I now face is that my job actually pays for my cell phone which means I am, in a sense, indebted to my work. I'm expected to read and reply to emails whenever they come in. This is why "technology free" vacations are so important to me. During these trips, it feels absolutely fantastic to turn off the phone and focus on the more important things in life!
So interesting!
What a beautiful place. I love the idea of sleeping out on the raft Unplugging is great, it's just the catching up when you get back that is annoying.
Ahh, we have one taker for the raft sleeping!!!
Those are some truly gorgeous photos of one of my favourite times of year. And the added bonus of water! Wonderful
That's a huge compliment coming from a superstar photographer like you! Thank you!
That looks a great place to unplug. I can't really unplug for too long either, for as much as I would love to, I still need to work… But now I've been imposing myself one whole unplugged day per week, I don't always manage to, but most weeks I leave my computer off for the whole day. My head feels definitely better when away from the screen. Lately I've been enjoying unplugging on the beach, with the summer beach brigades gone, shores are a tranquil and silent corner
Excellent ideas!
Wow, great photos and such a lovely way to spend a fall day.
Some fantastic photos – looks like a fantastic place to connect with nature!
Thanks! Indeed!
First off…incredible photos L. It grows harder with each passing day for me to unplug. We take a lot of weekend getaways, and I usually resolve myself to leave the laptop at home, but the smartphone is still nearby. I keep telling myself I need to take a week and completely cut myself off. If I were ever to give it a try, this would be the place to do it…
I find it a lot easier to unplug when I'm traveling. When I most recently backpacked around Southeast Asia, I definitely didn't use the 'net as much as I do when I'm home (and as much as some other travelers). Now I couldn't have avoided the 'net because I need to Skype some people and contact my boss in Japan (I wasn't traveling with a functioning cell phone). For me, it's easy to unplug when I'm doing something productive and I don't have the distractions of home.
Good points!
I did 17 days unplugged in Cuba. I didn't want to use my mobile phone so I just left it switched off and there wasn't really many options for email / internet. It was tough for a couple of days but after that, it was quite nice not to feel the urge to get online.
Mind you, there was a mad rush for newspapers when we boarded the flight home to check the sports results
Ahh yes!
Great photos! I'm with Caanan: I love unplugging. But then again, I don't even own a smartphone and run a website all about nature and wildlife, so I guess that makes sense. The only problem I have with "getting away from it all" is the nagging feeling that work is piling up while I'm gone. But I'm definitely looking forward to a week in the Arctic with little or no WiFi.
So amazing that you're going to the Arctic! I find it surprising, though, when anyone who runs a blog/website is able to unplug, given how fast things pile up. And I also can't believe that you don't have a smartphone! It's the main way my productivity is possible. Perhaps what allows you to do this is that you've wisely delegated tasks to assistants and interns, so online work is not 100% resting on you?
No, I'm online about 14 hours a day when we're not out of WiFi range. We work from home, so I just use the laptop. When we do go out, we tend to leave phones in the car so we can focus on enjoying rare quality time.
Ah, gotcha!
We are huge proponents of unplugging. Our lives are so filled with technology and information that it begins to stifle creativity and cloud our ability to listen to our own intuition. Our annual backcountry camping trip (which is quickly becoming camping trips, plural) is our way of creating some space so that we can reconnect with our creative selves and inner-compass.
And the world is just freakin' pretty, so there is that, too.
Oooo, convincing arguments and good plan…
I like unplugging on regular basis. Not on a schedule but often spend a day or a week w/limited to no access. Beyond that I don't think I'd enjoy it… too curious about what's going on and I'd at least want to access NPR/BBC or the like. However, unplugging even if for a few hours is great because I focus on the here and now, what I can see and hear at than moment and only in my immediate vicinity. Balance – I think that's the key.
Btw, loved the comment about the web, "no web (besides the spider kind…" That painted a very sharp picture for me.
Love this comment!
Looks like you had a good trip in New Hampshire.
Beautiful photos and locely fall story. Like you I like the idea of unplugging but find the reality more difficult, not just professionally (feeling I must be in touch for 'business') but personally (actually letting go of those connections, even temporarily). Some say it's a kind of tech addiction and maybe there's some truth in that.. the short term pleasure of connection and response is certainly compulsive. But I do find a deeper pleasure in nature, when I give it the time to get a hold, once I'm through the 'shakes'!! But it does take time to disconnect, perhaps unplugged is the wrong word – sounds too quick and simple. Like any transition from one state to another, it often takes a while to become accustomed to a different feeling and tempo.
Beautiful, wise analysis!
I've done it before and it isn't easy at first, but I found it actually got easier over time to go without internet or cell phone. However, I was on a retreat, so I had something to occupy my mind. I think it's easier to unplug if you have something to do to replace the internet, cell phone, tv, etc.
Ahh, good point! I think a big issue for me is that I feel like I'm missing things and falling behind… especially since so much of my career is now conducted online!
Love these photos!! Also, I'm all for unplugging—just wish I did it more.
Really?! What's stopping you??
Simple. Serene. Sublime.

Riding in the Porsche 911 cabriolet
Autoweek has sampled the increased refinement offered by the latest Porsche 911 cabriolet's fabric and composite plastic roof on a final validation test drive of the new car from San Francisco to Los Angeles.
Riding shotgun with the car's development boss, Michael Schaetzle, we were impressed by the ability of the new structure to not only filter noise when the roof is raised, but also the way it builds on the inherent calmness evident in other aspects of the new rear-engine open-top.
At typical motorway cruising speeds, there is a palpable improvement in overall refinement when the roof is raised, the result of bettered aerodynamic properties and the enhanced sound-deadening properties of the composite panel concentrated within the upper and rear sections of the two-piece structure.
As Schaetzle explains, "It's become a lot quieter, both in terms of wind and mechanical noise, on constant throttle loads. The roof structure, with its composite-plastic design, is much more stable and insulating than before."
Equally impressive is the 911 cabriolet's roof-down qualities. With a large, automatically operated wind deflector that automatically pops up from the top of the rear bulkhead, there is now far less wind swirl around the cabin at speed, making the new car a more pleasant place to be with the roof retracted back behind the rear seats over longer journeys.
What really got our attention as we made our way down the Pacific Coast Highway with Porsche's test team, though, was the new 911 cabriolet's much-improved ride quality. Despite the larger aperture created by removing the roof and giving it a fabric and composite roof, the torsional rigidity of the body has improved by some 37 percent, according to Schaetzle. This, in turn, gives the suspension greater control, added pliancy and a smoother character over a variety of different surfaces.
Perhaps best of all, though, is the way the new roof provides the new 911 cabriolet with a cleaner look than its predecessor.

Township Supervisor Race Becomes Clear
Alyson Feiger and Jack Koenig will compete April 9 to replace state Sen. Elect Julie Morrison (D-Deerfield) as West Deerfield Township supervisor.
Only one thing was certain when the West Deerfield Township Republicans and Democrats met in caucus Tuesday. That assurance was the Township will have a new supervisor to replace state Sen. Elect Julie Morrison (D-Deerfield) when she becomes a member of the Illinois General Assembly in January. She intends to resign her current position around that time. Earlier: Caucuses Give Citizen Voice Tuesday Democrat Alyson Feiger of Deerfield and Republican Jack Koenig of Bannockburn will face off to become the new supervisor in the April 9 election. They were both chosen by their respective caucuses Tuesday. An interim supervisor will be selected by the existing Township Board of Trustees after Morrison resigns to serve the rest of her term.

OSU football: Todd Monken's high-powered offense enhancing his status as head coach prospect
Oklahoma State's passing attack keeps piling up yards and points, shining a spotlight on offensive coordinator's ability, not only within the program, but beyond
STILLWATER — Todd Monken lives with a constant fear of job failure.
Maybe that's why he's so good.
A year ago, Monken inherited a ready-made offense with ready-to-roll players and needed only to tweak things in triggering one of the nation's most potent offenses.
This year, however, Monken's Oklahoma State offense seemed more ready for disaster than anything.
Left tackle Michael Bowie was lost before the season started. Wide receiver Tracy Moore limped away for good in Game 5. And not two, but three quarterbacks — Wes Lunt, J.W. Walsh and Clint Chelf — have circled through a revolving door spun by injury.
Still, Monken's attack keeps piling up yards and points, shining a spotlight on his ability, not only within the program, but beyond, surely enhancing his status as a hot head coaching candidate.
"He deserves a lot of credit, because he's our leader," said Cowboys running back Joseph Randle. "He's the offensive leader. If you can keep making things work and keep moving forward, even with all those problems and issues that have come up, that just shows that you're a great coach."
OSU's attack ranks among the nation's leaders in all the major categories: No. 3 scoring offense, No. 5 total offense, No. 7 passing offense, No. 20 rushing offense.
No matter the challenge, and there have been many, Monken seems to just plug and play.
And produce.
The Cowboys are actually averaging more yards this season than a year ago, 547.9 to 545.8, which through 11 games ranks No. 1 in program history. Better than Weeden2Blackmon. Better than Barry Sanders and Co.
Randle leads the Big 12 in rushing. Minus Moore, Josh Stewart has emerged as a star in Monken's offense, as a sophomore producing one of the top receptions and receiving yards seasons in school history. And for the first time in school history, five different players have recorded 100-yard receiving games.
Hesitant to accept any credit, Monken said that he hasn't once reflected on any job well done.
"The only time that happens is when I feel like I have to defend myself, when people are critical," Monken said. "But until that point, I'm real humble. I think we've got good coaches. We've got good players.

Tom Cruise visited "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon" on Dec. 18, the same night he was reportedly spotted out dancing with a younger woman. (Theo Wargo / Getty Images / December 18, 2012) |
Is Tom Cruise healing his heart with a new girlfriend, so soon after being bounced by Katie Holmes?
So it seemed when In Touch reported Wednesday that the 50-year-old "Jack Reacher" star was spotted out at a New York nightclub a week before Christmas, hitting the dance floor with a woman half his age.
"At one point, they began grinding together," a witness told the mag. "It was straight out of 'Dirty Dancing.' Tom seemed to be in his own world, completely smitten."
Alas, a source told People on Thursday there was no love light burning, and the New York Post reported that she was just showing him "some of the city's hotspots."
"Cynthia told me they went out for drinks and it was nothing but a casual night out," the People source said. "Cynthia" would be 26-year-old brunette Cynthia Jorge, a restaurant manager he'd met two nights before.
"She said he's a nice guy."
A nice guy. Dang. That's gotta hurt.

News Article
According to an update from Deadline.com, Mark Duplass (Zero Dark Thirty) has joined the cast of Mercy, the film adaptation of Stephen King's skin-crawling Skeleton Crew short story "Gramma," about two boys and their creepy bed-ridden grandmother, who turns out to have occult powers. The story, which is loosely tied to H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos, was previously adapted by accclaimed author Harlan Ellison for the '80s Twilight Zone series, but this will be the first feature-length version.
"Gramma" was adapted for the screen by writer Matt Greenberg (who previously adapted King's 1408) and directed by Peter Cornwell (A Haunting In Connecticut). Duplass will co-star with Dylan McDermott (American Horror Story), Frances O'Connor, Chandler Riggs, Joel Courtney, Shirley Knight and Chris Browning. The film is tentatively slated for a 2014 release.

Shell-shocked opponents of the laws spent the weekend mapping strategy for protests and acts of civil disobedience, while acknowledging the cold reality that Republican majorities in both the House and Senate cannot be stopped — or even delayed for long by parliamentary maneuvers. Leaders vowed to resist to the end, and then set their sights on winning control of the Legislature and defeating Snyder when he seeks re-election in 2014.
"They've awakened a sleeping giant," United Auto Workers President Bob King told The Associated Press on Saturday at a Detroit-area union hall, where about 200 activists were attending a planning session. "Not just union members. A lot of regular citizens, non-union households, realize this is a negative thing."
Right-to-work laws prohibit requiring employees to join a union or pay fees similar to union dues as a condition of employment. Supporters say it's about freedom of association for workers and a better business climate. Critics contend the real intent is to bleed unions of money and bargaining power.
Hundreds of chanting, whistle-blowing demonstrators thronged the state Capitol last week as bills were introduced and approved hours later, without the usual committee hearings allowing for public comment. Even more protesters are expected Tuesday, when the two chambers may reconcile wording differences and send final versions to Snyder, who now pledges to sign them after saying repeatedly since his 2010 election the issue wasn't "on my agenda."

i got a few hand-kinit wool covers and they need to be lanolized periodically correct?
they are freashly lanolized now, how long does that last?
how do you lanolize?
You are here
i think it lasts a month...you can google it
You can buy solid wool soap to wash them with which I love. I get mine at valor-kids.com
or wash it with baby shampoo. Then melt a bit of lanolin in some water in the microwave. Let the cover soak it up for a bit. Then lay flat to dry.
there are two ways that I know of.
1. run the water til it's hot, so the hot water is right at the tap. Then rub some lansinoh (like a 1/4" line) on the bottom of the sink, then add the hot water until it covers the lanolin. Let the lanolin melt a bit, then add cool or lukewarm water til the sink is full. The goal is to have a sink full of room temp. water, then you can plunge the soaker/cover in a few time, then let it soak for at least a half hour. Longer is fine.
2. (I like this method better) Take a cup and put a quarter inch line of lansinoh at the bottom. Fill with very hot water. Add a nickel size glob of shampoo (baby shampoo is suggested. i use a natural tea tree oil shampoo) and mix well. Add this mixture to a sinkful o lukewarm water, them dunk the soaker and allow to soak for a half hour or more.
When it's done soaking, you should roll in in a towel to get the excess moisture out then lay it flat to dry. Good luck!
oh, and just do it as often as feels necessary. You'll know when they start to seem less waterproof. Also, if they start smelling like pee it's a good sign, since the antimicrobial properties of the lanolin keep the wool from smelling. If it holds the smell, it's probably time to lanolize.
be careful that you dont accidentally felt your soakers though, i know alot of mamas find that out the hard way... i also recall being told that even warmish water can felt wool...
but i dont do soakers...yet :D
and I have heard that water that is too cold will also shrink it.
I use felted wool covers rather than knit soakers because they are much easier to deal with.

Egyptian President Mohmed Morsi imposed a curfew and a state of emergency in Port Said, and two other cities, at the end of January. Residents of the northern gateway city to the Suez Canal defied Morsi's order with riots that left an estimated 40-plus locals dead.
The riots were set off by the announcement of death sentences for 21 fans of the Al Masry soccer club for their role in stadium violence last February that resulted in 74 deaths.
Al Masry—which means "The Egyptian"—was founded in 1920 to be the first team to represent the native Arabs of Port Said, then occupied by the British.
This shot of the then bustling port city's Arab quarter was purchased by National Geographic illustrations chief Franklin L. Fisher in Egypt and brought back to headquarters in Washington, D.C., that same year.
Those were prosperous days for Port Said, which sits on the Mediterranean, not far from Europe. Traffic on the Suez Canal was brisk and the international community was growing ever larger. The city's population verged on nearly 100,000 residents. It's still one of Egypt's largest cities, with about 600,000 people today.
Until Al Masry was formed, Port Said's football clubs were made up mostly of European expats who were part of the city's boom: Scottish canal engineers, French bankers, and Greek tobacconists.

It would take a bit of a letdown on their part and the return of Saint Paul for us. But it's certainly doable, it's not like we've never won there.
This is a game, especially if Marvin is out, in which we have got to start the 3-big lineup.

Paul Millsap is going to have to come up "BIG" for us tonight on the defensive end. I don't think Hayward can guard Durrant all that well, although I would love to see that matchup as well.
I think Corbin's pieces are starting to come together here, and I don't understand all this negativity with the Jazz as a whole right now. (Other than looking like they don't want to be there sometimes).

it is kind of sad seeing so many proclaimed jazz fans already ruling out a win for our team tonight. i dont think we can count them out. we have a secret weapon. we have been saving burks waiting and plotting for the perfect time to revill him.
Once we accept our limits, we go beyond them.

Marvin Williams continues to deal with concussion symptoms and will not play tonight. Unlikely for Saturday as well. #UTAatOKC
June 27- NBA Draft; July 7-12 Orlando Summer League; July 11- FA signing period begins; Oct 11- Preseaon game in Boise
They must be Satan worshipers or Atheists then because if you remember 2-3 seasons ago on New Years Eve, OKC was gifted the game when OKC went to the FT and missed and Millsap got the rebound and was fouled (over the back) and they somehow called the foul on him giving them 2 more FT's to get the lead. Then more of a minor/lesser issue Ronnie Price attempted the game winning 3 from the corner and as fouled but I wouldn't expect that to be called often anyway.
I don't have a single hope of the Jazz winning tonight, yet there is no way I would miss watching the game and won't let any plans interfere with my game watching.
I am a weird.

Did you know that the
Oklahoma Thunder were created in 2008 -09 season. The first season they won 1 game with PJ Carlisimo and 22 with Scott Brooks.
Since then they are 164-82 (.667)
In OKC the jazz are 2-6 all time. The last win came October 31, 2010.
In that Game Al Jefferson had 23 points and 10 rebounds, but Paul Milsap led the Jazz with 16 rebounds, 6 assists and 30 points. Torey Ellis added 16 points and 15 assists for the Jazz.
Paul, Al, AK and Torey all played more than 36 minutes. CJ came off the bench for 24 minutes and scored 21 points.
I remember that game. The Jazz had looked bad up until then and I had been concerned. But they handled the Thunder in the first meeting with Al on the team. I thought there was hope with the new team, not so much I guess.
June 27- NBA Draft; July 7-12 Orlando Summer League; July 11- FA signing period begins; Oct 11- Preseaon game in Boise
The Jazz will lose this game, I'd bet on it. But this is still an important game for the Jazz. This is a great chance for the Jazz to grow and get better, playing a tough team in a tough arena. If the Jazz can keep the game close and competitive it will be a good learning experience. Jazz should play some young guys, would love to see a Burks citing.

I'm running Mac OS X Snow Leopard and an HP printer. I've printed a lot of things before and had no problems. Yesterday, I tried printing some pdf craft files for the kids to do, all downloaded from the same site. Some of the came out great, and just like on the screen. Then there were three that were very off. One was a green leaf that printed brown, one was a fairy house with a lot of green and also printed brown, and one was a yellow sunflower that printed a deep pink.
I had just changed the color ink the night before, so it's full. I ran a printer test and cleaned the print heads. That page came out perfect.
Could it that there is just something wrong in the files themselves?

Some Files Printing Color Wrong, Mac And An Hp Printer
Posted 08 April 2010 - 03:32 PM
That could be. I use an HP printer with my Mac and haven't had any issues with Scrap Girls products or my photos. I haven't printed much off the internet though.
Posted 11 April 2010 - 02:01 PM
I tried downloading new copies of the files, and they did the same thing. Then the strangest thing of all. I printed a two page file. The first page printed great, and the second page printed funny.
It must be something within the files themselves.

down the shore, and a goodbye
9 comments:
Aw, I know you guys will miss her so!! (Okay, OKAY, I'LL move in...you don't have to ask me twice). It sounds like you guys had a wonderful trip down the shore, and now you and the fam have a brand new place to visit your sister and new things to see! All my best wishes to Erin, and PLEASE let's plan a NJ visit this summer, I cannot wait to meet the newest kiddo.
ReplyDeleteThank you and Taro SO MUCH for sharing your home with Erin. I am so grateful the two of you had that time together and so grateful she and the kiddos had such an amazing opportunity to get to know each other a little better. You are an amazing big sister who just happens to have an amazing little sister and I get to be you mom!!! Gratitude feels my heart!!
ReplyDeleteI've been following your blog for a while [linked via CupOfJo] and couldn't resist commenting on this post - the family I nanny for vacations at the shore and Gracie and the Dudes is the BEST. We also love the pizza a few doors down. The mint Oreo is our favorite - looks like your little guy loves some Gracie too!

I am absolutely baffled at the miracle of pregnancy and human reproduction! DH thanks me probably once a week for 'growing our baby' which got me thinking, I'm not actually DOING anything other than taking care of myself, the same I would do whether or not pregnant. Seriously, our bodies each provided half of the genetic material necessary, I'm providing the 'incubator', both of which I can (kind of - as in, we can control whether or not the genetic material has a chance to meet up, etc) control.
As my bugger gets bigger and makes his presence known on a regular basis, it absolutely blows my mind how much God MUST be involved with all this. He chose whether or not we had implantation. He started the heartbeat, I had nothing to do with that. He is in control 150%.
I have always said children are blessings. Despite all the lousy side effects of pregnancy, I am honestly honored to get to incubate this little new life.
Sorry, very random post, but I got sick of all the complaining in my due date room. I just want to scream sometimes, don't you realize how lucky we are to have our children? Whether from our own incubators or someone else's, this LIFE is absolutely incredible just in its existence!
I am very grateful for His control and guidance in my life.

Jan. 2013 - A Deed of Assignment was recently signed between Allied Energy, Nigerian Petroleum Development Corp (NPDC) and Transocean for use of the Sedneth 701 (mid-water semisub) to drill a well on the Allied-operated Oyo field off Nigeria. The rig will drill the Oyo-7 development well between April and August of this year. Objectives of the well are to increase production of the Pliocene reservoir and test the resource potential of the deeper Miocene interval.
Jun. 2012 - Allied Energy reported that it plans to drill a development well on the Oyo field in 4Q 2012. The new well, Oyo No. 7, is being designed to test the prospective resource potential of the deeper Miocene reservoir in the field, but also to increase production in the Pliocene reservoir. With these dual objectives, the No. 7 well is expected to both significantly increase oil production from the currently producing reservoir and de-risk much of the unrisked resource potential in the field.
Jan. 2012 - Nigerian OML Agip Exploration, a subsidiary of Eni, has signed a definitive agreement to divest its 40 percent working interest in OML leases 120 and 121 (containing the producing Oyo field) to Allied Energy. The transaction is subject to customary conditions for closing and is expected to conclude during the first quarter of 2012. Once approved, Allied plans to expedite the development of the Oyo field by drilling two additional production wells commencing in 2012. These two wells are expected to significantly increase oil production over current levels. Allied also intends to accelerate exploration activities in the OMLs to fully exploit potential outside of the field, independently estimated at up to two billion barrels of unrisked prospective oil resources. The Oyo field is located on Leases 120 and 121, roughly 43 miles (70 kilometers) off the coast of Nigeria.
Apr. 2011 - CAMAC Energy, a partner in OML 120 & 121, announced the results of an independent engineering report prepared by Netherland, Sewell & Associates. The company estimates that these two blocks, located offshore Nigeria, hold 1.9 billion barrels with a high of 6.3 billion barrels of oil-in-place; and the best estimate for associated recoverable gross contingent and unrisked prospective oil resources is 626 million barrels with a high of 2.2 billion barrels. This amount is significantly higher than the estimated 500 million barrels of potential recoverable oil the company previously announced. The consortium plans to test the greater potential of this play, including the deeper Miocene zone. These two blocks house the Oyo field, situated about 43 miles (70 kilometers) off the coast of Nigeria.
Feb. 2011 - CAMAC Energy has completed the acquisition of the remaining Allied Energy interest in Production Sharing Contract on OML 120 and 121 offshore Nigeria. OML 120 covers an area of 226,596 acres (917 square kilometers) in water depths ranging from 492 to 3,281 feet (150 to 1,000 meters), and contains the Oyo field. The OML 121 block covers an area of 219,182 acres (887 square kilometers) in water depths ranging from 492 to 3,281 feet (150 to 1,000 meters) and is located directly south of OML 120. Based on internal mapping and 3D seismic studies, nine new prospects have been identified within the two blocks. CAMAC Energy believes the OML 120,121 blocks, including these nine prospects, may potentially hold over 500 million barrels of recoverable oil resources.
Apr. 2010 - Pacific Asia Petroleum (PAP) approved the acquisition of all of CAMAC's interest in the Oyo oil field. In exchange for all of CAMAC's interest in the production-sharing contract, PAP will pay US $38.84 million in cash to retire existing debts and issue common stock to CAMAC equal to 62.74% of the company's issued and outstanding common stock. CAMAC currently owns a 60% interest in the Eni-operated field, with the remaining 40% owned by Eni. The Oyo field is located on Leases 120 and 121, roughly 43 miles (70 kilometers) off the coast of Nigeria.
Dec. 2009 - Eni has commenced production at the deepwater Oyo field offshore Nigeria. Initial production from the field is from two subsea wells connected to the Armada Perdana FPSO at approximately 25,000 bopd. The field's associated gas will be re-injected to prevent flaring and maximize oil recovery. First oil from Oyo was achieved less than two years from project sanction. Oyo is located on Lease 120 and 121, roughly 43 miles (70 kilometers) off the coast in a water depth of 1,345 feet (410 meters). Eni serves as the operator of Oyo and holds a 40% interest; Allied Petroleum holds the remaining 60% interest.
Sep. 2009 - Bumi Armada successfully closed the US $190 million limited recourse loan facility with a group of 7 mandated lead arrangers, which originally committed more than US $260 million. The funding commitments were scaled back to US $190 million split into a US $100 million ECA tranche fully guaranteed by SACE, the leading Italian provider of credit management, and a US $90 million commercial tranche, both with a tenor of five years. The transaction was the first ever FPSO financing done by SACE. The loan will partly finance the construction of the FPSO Armada Perdana which will be owned and operated by Bumi Armada in the Oyo Field offshore Nigeria operated by Nigeria Agip Exploration Ltd, part of the ENI group. The FPSO is being converted at Keppel Shipyard in Singapore and is expected to sail away at the end of August to meet first oil in the last quarter of the year.
Jul. 2009 - Keppel Shipyard is close to completing the conversion of FPSO Armada Perdana for repeat customer Bumi Armada Berhad. A ceremony for the naming of the FPSO prior to its deployment in the Oyo field, 43 miles (70 kilometers) off the coast of Nigeria was held at the shipyard on July 20. The vessel will work for Nigerian Agip Exploration Ltd (NAE), a subsidiary of Italian oil major, Eni SpA, and is expected to deliver first oil in fourth Quarter 2009. The Oyo field, located in OML 120, has proven oil reserves of 50,000,000 barrels. The vessel, which arrived in May last year, underwent fabrication, installation and integration of a 12-point spread mooring system, riser balcony, topside facilities and upgrade of accommodation and auxiliary support systems.
Eni commenced production from the Oyo oil field on Dec. 15, 2009.
Two other appraisal wells have been scheduled during 2006 to verify the potential of Leases 120 and 121.
Oyo was the first deepwater discovery in Nigeria (Allied Petroleum, 1995), Statoil was Allied's technical partner when Oyo was discovered.

Health Information
Fluorouracil (5-FU) for Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer
What To Think About
Applying 5-FU on skin almost always causes pain and a burning feeling. This may make it hard to tell if you are having an allergic reaction to the medicine or if the medicine is working as expected.
Your skin may be sensitive to sunlight during your treatment with 5-FU. So you will need to protect your skin from the sun.
People treated with 5-FU will need to have regular follow-up visits with their doctors to make sure the skin cancer is gone.
Taking medicine
Medicine is one of the many tools your doctor has to treat a health problem. Taking medicine as your doctor suggests will improve your health and may prevent future problems. If you don't take your medicines properly, you may be putting your health (and perhaps your life) at risk.
There are many reasons why people have trouble taking their medicine. But in most cases, there is something you can do. For suggestions on how to work around common problems, see the topic Reference Taking Medicines as Prescribed.
Advice for women
Do not use this medicine if you are pregnant, breast-feeding, or planning to get pregnant. If you need to use this medicine, talk to your doctor about how you can prevent pregnancy.
Follow-up care is a key part of your treatment and safety. Be sure to make and go to all appointments, and call your doctor if you are having problems. It's also a good idea to know your test results and keep a list of the medicines you take.
