Geez! I must be real bad when I don't keep track! Guess I'm done eating for the day.

Here's the pre-race report!

I'm back!!!

My blog was down for quite a while and now I have lots to do to catch up, assuming I will ever catch up, probably not though.

The biggest news right now though is that SU has made it to the Sweet Sixteen and is playing Oklahoma tonight for a spot in the Elite Eight. I can't wait for the game. SU had to sit out the previous two years from the NCAA Tournament because apparently they weren't good enough so I'm happy they're back and doing well, especially after their epic performance in the Big East Tourney, beating UConn in 6 OTs, how could you forget that game??

Stay tuned and cheer for the ORANGE tonight!

I got lots of good presents from the bear including this huge handcrafted card :0)

Check out this vid my friend Mark B sent me. It's crazy!

Position Description:
The Huro Program is a conservation program towards Hoolock Gibbon and other primates in northeast India, by the association SVAA (created in 2006), www.association-svaa.com.

The Program being at its beginning, it meets serious difficulties regarding veterinary subject. The local doctors are incompetent or even dangerous (you could understand it in living there), they possess any sense of suffering, life or death, that cannot be acceptable even if we understand their way of thinking and that this last protect them from a difficult daily life that can be unbearable psychologically (omnipresence of death at each moment, death of child, accidents, suffering…).

In order to situate the situation, the centre of the Program is located in Meghalaya, remote state of northeast India where the first medical structure is not less than 5 hours far by road. The only animal clinic of the biggest city (Tura), killed almost all the animals brought to them because of a wrong diagnose or excessive dose. Second thing, the Indian medicines are either under dosage, either placebo, either worst full of dangerous liquids. India provides many of the generic medicines import in Europe, you will say, but these ones are submit under rigid a control, that is not the case of the ones you find in India. Concerning this problem we will now command all the medicines from Europe or America.

The problem is actually that the Huro Program has any veterinary doctor on place and, even if the equip has certain basis, it cannot replace a doctor. Thus, this is a distress call that we send to you.

The volunteer doctor will be welcomed in a garo (local tribe) family who will assure for him or her accommodation and food, and they speak english (moreover, they are used to « the small habits” of the westerners). The only charge that the Program cannot take is the flight tickets, however, the association Yaboumba (which one the SVAA works in partnership) can eventually take it in charge if the volunteer is really motivated and for a stage of minimum 6 months on place. The volunteer will have to be in good health, vaccinated (rage, tetanos, thyphoid fever…). A young doctor is welcome but if he/she has an experience with primates it would be better (even in zoo), finally, we need someone that keep calm in every situation and has some imagination because all of the equipment is not there. To put it in a nutshell someone motivated.

I seem to get stuck on a song and have to put it on repeat for a few days to get over it. This time it's The Fray's You Found Me. I heard it's about God so that sucks.
