You love going to the dentist, so why would you need to ask about sedation dentistry? Here are a few good reasons:
You have quite a bit of treatment to complete.
Needing a few fillings, a crown, or a combination of other dental work all done can seem overwhelming. These treatments usually need to be broken up into a few different appointments so that you don't have to have your entire mouth anesthetized for hours after your visit. However, with sedation dentistry you can elect to have all of your treatment done in just one visit. This saves you valuable time and helps you get your oral health under control more quickly.
You need to have wisdom teeth extracted.
Involved procedures like removing wisdom teeth are best done under sedation. Why? Because it keeps you comfortable and allows the dentist to work quickly. Without having to worry about your comfort (because if you're sedated, you will have the maximum level of comfort), your dentist can complete the procedure in less time than if you were fully conscious.
You just don't want to know what's going on.
Are you one of those people who just want the dentist to complete your treatment and not hear the sounds and procedures going on in the background? You're not alone! Many people are perfectly comfortable having dental work done, but they would rather tune it all out. Sedation dentistry treatments allow you to do just that!
There are several types of sedation dentistry available. Call your dentist to find out which types of sedation are available, and understand which one might be the best one for you.

Special needs patients require special dental care providers. Because routine dental procedures like cleanings and x-rays can be exhausting to the patient and their caregiver, sedation dentistry allows the patient to be able to relax and have all of their treatment completed during one appointment. Sedation appointments also help dental providers to be more efficient in the care that they provide, as these appointments allow each patient to be extremely cooperative for the entire length of their procedure.
Sedation is achieved either by an oral medication taken before the appointment, or through intravenous delivery of medication. For cases where a deeper stage of sedation is needed, intravenous is the method of choice.
In the past it was difficult for caregivers to find and schedule sedation dentistry appointments for special needs patients such as patients with developmental disabilities, dental anxiety, or an uncontrollable severe gag reflex. Dentists who specialize in sleep and sedation dentistry offer sedation services on a routine basis for not only patients with special needs, but also every patient that requests sedation services.
Because the patient is sedated into a level of sleep, very large treatment cases can be treated all at once. These appointments may last for up to a few hours in order to complete all of the care, but the patient will never notice. They will wake up rested and comfortable, as local anesthetic is still used to numb the area where treatment took place.
If you have been trying to find a dental care provider for the special needs patient in your life, look for a dentist that specializes in sleep and sedation dentistry.
Are you one of the millions of Americans who avoid getting much needed dental care because just the thought of going to the dentist fills you with dread and fear? Or maybe you are or are a caregiver for a special needs patient who cannot tolerate traditional dental care due to physical limitations. Fortunately, sedation dentistry offers a solution that allows dental anxiety patients and special needs patients to get the dental care they need.
Traditional dentistry relies on the use of Novocain and similar local anesthetics to numb the area of your mouth where the dental work is performed. Sedation dentistry takes it to the next level by providing intravenous sedation in addition to local anesthetic that relaxes the patient and provides a comfortable, anxiety free dental experience.
Depending on the needs of the patient, a dentist who practices sedation dentistry can administer different levels of sedation from mild sedation to deep sedation. With mild levels of sedation, the patient is very relaxed but conscious and can respond to questions and communicate with the dentist. At deeper levels of sedation the patient will fall asleep, but can be awoken. The deepest level of sedation is full, unconscious sedation. This is sometimes called hospital sleep dentistry because the dental procedure is often performed in a specially equipped surgical suite or hospital operating room.
Sedation dentistry is a safe, effective way for many patients to get much needed dental care who would otherwise compromise their health by avoiding the dentist altogether. Only a few dentists have the special training needed to practice sedation dentistry. For more information and to find out if sedation dentistry is right for you, talk to a dentist in your area who practices sedation dentistry.

BREAKING NEWS: Real Madrid sack Benitez, appoint Zidane
Holly Thackeray | January 4, 2016
Real Madrid dismiss Rafa Benitez
Spanish giants Real Madrid (5/1 with Coral to win the Champions League), famous for their managerial merry-go-round, have sacked coach Rafa Benitez after just seven months in the Bernabeu hotseat.
Real playing legend and former France playmaker Zinedine Zidane, also a Los Blancos Castilla coach, has been appointed as his replacement, Real Madrid president Florentino Perez told press.
The Madrid bigwig stated: "The board has taken a difficult decision – especially for me, to sack Rafael Benítez – a great professional and a magnificent person.
"I'm very proud because I know that for Zidane, the word 'impossible' doesn't exist."
Zidane posa junto a su familia y Florentino en su presentación como míster del Real Madrid ▶ https://t.co/KA3rPmNIcU pic.twitter.com/AzPbOc4lvZ
— MARCA (@marca) January 4, 2016
Despite losing just three of his 25 games across all competitions in charge, there are high standards set in the Spanish capital, where Los Blancos' board and support were reportedly unimpressed by former Liverpool manager Benitez's playing style.
Although, during his tenure Real racked-up four or more goals a game on seven occasions, but it is thought a key defeat to Barcelona proved costly, while a recent inability to beat Gary Neville's Valencia was also criticised, with Los Blancos languishing third in La Liga.
In addition, Benitez, a former Real youth coach and player, was said to have ruffled a few feathers in the changing room, with top stars such as James Rodriguez and Isco supposedly seeking moves away.
So, since sacking now World Cup winning Spain coach Vicente del Bosque back in 2003, Los Merengues have given 12 different bosses the boot over almost the same number of seasons, with controversial Portuguese Jose Mourinho clinging to the dugout longest with three terms in charge.
Zidane takes over Bernabeu hotseat
Zidane had long been linked to eventually be given a shot at the big job, and is apparently a popular figure behind the scenes, as well as previously on the pitch.
The Frenchman originally arrived at the Bernabeu for a then world record fee of £45.8m from Italian giants Juventus back in 2001, and went on to win both La Liga and Champions League medals as a player, as part of Los Blancos' famous Galactico side.
In a short statement, Zidane said: "I thank the club and the president for giving me the opportunity to train the club. It's the best club in the world and the best fanbase.
"I want to do my very best to ensure the club has a trophy at the end of the season. Tomorrow is when the work starts. It's an emotional day, even more emotional than the day I signed for the club."

October 6th, 2018 Walker Pass mm 652 to mm 620 Distance: 32 miles 0730 – 1830 After packing the calories and having a great visit with Josh and his family, it was time to get back on the trail. I had some trepidation about this section, since it is the driest and I am still unarmed with the croudsourced commentary from guthooks. I looked into buying the desert section of the app but the way things are divided, I would also have to buy the Sierra section to cover just the trail from Walker Pass to Tehachapi. I just downloaded the old-fashioned water report instead. It is a pdf that someone maintains weekly/monthly based off reports from other hikers. They[…]Read more
Month: October 2018
Day 92: Ridgecrest Zero & PCT Party
October 5th, 2018 Zero day Distance: NONE! Josh drove me around all day and it was awesome. I felt a bit guilty about taking another zero after just taking one in Bishop, but I can justify it when I need the calories. I weighed myself when I got in and I was at 121 lbs. A day later, the scale was saying I picked up 3 lbs! It doesn't surprise me, since I stuffed my face all day. Josh was very kind to drive me around for all my errands. I went to Walgreens, Dollar General, a barber, the post office, and the grocery store. We stopped to have lunch at a AYCE Chinese buffet. He had to wait for[…]Read more
Day 91: Walker Pass and Ridgecrest
October 4th, 2018 Mm 673 to Walker Pass mm 652 Distance: 21 miles 0620 – 1830 I woke up in a fog, not speaking figuratively but literally. It hadn't rained overnight but everything was damp and the peaks were all enshrouded by clouds. I rolled up my tent along with half the desert that was stuck to the bottom of it. I love carrying around extra weight in detritus. I quickly hiked below the cloud line and enjoyed views of the sun hitting the peaks in the distance. The mist that was clinging to the nearby peaks reminded me of a scene from the cloud forests of Monte Verde, Costa Rica, not Southern California. But in general, these hills have[…]Read more
Day 90: 700 miles to go
October 3rd, 2018 Road walk from Kennedy Meadows general store, then mm 702 to mm 673 Distance: 29 miles plus 1 mile from the store 0720 – 1830 My rooster alarm went off at 5:40 am but I was already awake and eating breakfast. What a cheeky little guy. He wanted to get his revenge on me but didn't realize just how early I get up. Nice try! Poor Stellar was still waiting on his resupply box to arrive, so I had to bid him farewell. I will probably see him later since I planned to take some time off in Ridgecrest. I left with Bella and Kuba. It was nice to walk with them and I was surprised to[…]Read more
Day 89: Kennedy Meadows South
October 2nd, 2018 Mm 728 to mm 702 and then road walk to Kennedy Meadows general store Distance: 26 miles plus 1 mile to the store 0620 – 1500 The 3 month stretch of no rain was finally broken. It rained pretty hard around 4 am. I had to put my tent flaps down. At least the rain stopped before we had to pack up. Later, it was like it hadn't even rained. It had been so dry that all the plants and ground soaked up every drop. There was no mud, puddles, or running water anywhere. With the clouds and rain came a very fresh scent. I daresay I enjoyed it all, staying warm and dry in my tent.[…]Read more
Day 88: The final push through the Sierra
October 1st, 2018 Mm 759.5 to mm 728 Distance: 31.5 miles 0630 – 1830 It was incredible how easy 30 miles felt when not having to climb steep, high passes today. After about 2.5 weeks, I began the descent from the high Sierra. The day started off very cold and it took until about noon to really warm up. I was watching the clouds building all day. Ever since last Thursday, we had been hearing about a weather system (remnants of a hurricane) that was supposed to come in today, bringing rain and snow. I couldn't believe my luck in just getting beyond the last high pass and also climbing Whitney. I had the most perfect weather throughout the Sierra.[…]Read more
Day 87: Mt Whitney
September 30th, 2018 Crabtree Meadow to mm 759.5 Distance: 7 PCT miles plus 16 miles on Whitney Spur Trail 0300 – 1630 Today was the big day: climb the highest mountain in the the contiguous US at nearly 14,500′. Last summer, I summited the second tallest mountain, Mt Elbert, off the Colorado Trail. It is only about 50 feet shy of Mt. Whitney, but who's counting? I was awake and making coffee by 2:30 am. We were on the trail by 3:25 but got a little delayed in trying to find a bear box in the dark. We left some of our stuff in there. The trail was easy to follow; in fact, we barely used our headlamps the whole[…]Read more
Day 86: PCT Highpoint – Forester Pass
September 29th, 2018 Kearsarge Lakes to Crabtree Meadow Distance: 21.5 PCT miles plus 2 miles on Kearsarge Pass trail and 1 mile on Whitney Spur Trail 0645 – 1630 I got a later start than Stellar and finally caught up to him at the top of Forester Pass. We only had to do this one and final big pass today, the highest point on the PCT at 13,200′. I had to stop a few times on the way up, as I was feeling pretty low energy. It was probably the weight of my pack dragging me down. The pass wasn't any harder than the others, just a bit higher. Stellar took this picture of me struggling up all the switchbacks.[…]Read more
Day 84 & 85: Bishop Zero and Nero
September 27th & 28th, 2018 Independence to Bishop, then back, then up to Onion Valley Trailhead and over Kearsarge Pass. Distance: 6 miles, plus a whole lot of cycling and walking around town I'm combining these two days for simplicity. I spent most of the time in Bishop. My one goal for this town time was to eat as much as possible to regain my strength, and I did a pretty good job. I started the first day with a big breakfast at the hotel, followed by a pizza for lunch and sushi rolls for dinner. I had really been dreaming of sushi and hot sake for some reason and the town just happened to have a Japanese restaurant. I[…]Read more
Day 83: Three Passes
September 26th, 2018 Lake Marjorie mm 809 to mm 789 and then out on a spur trail to Onion Valley Trailhead Distance: 20 miles plus 7.6 miles on Kearsarge Pass trail. 0615 – 1830 Since we barely had any food left, I joked that we would have to eat passes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. But they about ate me! First up over Pinchot Pass was pretty easy, as we only had about 1000′ of climbing and were feeling fresh in the morning. The early sunlight on the red belt of mountains was fantastic, especially with the full moon over one of the peaks. There have been so many of these dramatic views. We stopped to take some fun pictures.[…]Read more

Competitiveness Impacts of Climate Change on LDCs' export trade
This issue of Commonwealth Trade Hot Topics considers the competitiveness aspect of the impact of climate change on exports from African LDCs. While LDCs are known to be vulnerable to climate change consequences, relatively little attention has focused on trade impacts and the implications for export-led growth and development prospects. Key issues discussed in this brief are of particular importance for consideration in the Fourth United Nations Conference on LDCs due to be held in Istanbul, Turkey, in May 2011.

Montreal Impact 3, San Jose Earthquakes 1 | 2016 MLS Match Recap
In a game between two teams desperate for points, the Montreal Impact scored twice in a 10-minute span in the first half and again in second-half stoppage time to defeat the struggling San Jose Earthquakes, 3-1, at Stade Saputo Wednesday night.
Dominic Oduro pounced on a rebound spilled in front of goal by David Bingham and deposited it into the net from eight yards out to give the Impact a 1-0 lead on 22 minutes.
Ten minutes later, Ignacio Piatti took advantage of a defensive miscue to double the Impact's lead. He picked off Marvell Wynne pass and slipped to Matteo Mancosu, who returned the favor and Piatti tapped in from 10 yards to send Montreal into the break with a two-goal cushion with his 15th goal of the year.
Chris Wondolowski followed an Evan Bush save of a long-distance attempt by Darwin Ceren and pushed it into the net to pull the Earthquakes to within a goal in the 62nd minute.
Wondolowski had a chance to level from the penalty spot in the 87th minute after Laurent Ciman was ruled to have pulled down Shea Salinas inside the box near the end line.
But Bush made the save to deny Wondolowski and keep the Impact in front.
That loomed large because Johan Venegas added an insurance goal two minutes into stoppage time. He took a feed from Piatti after Didier Drogba received a long ball from Hassoun Camara and held off his defender to start the scoring sequence.
- MTL: Evan Bush saves Impact's playoff hopes
- SJ: Earthquakes playoff chances "pretty bleak" after loss
Box Score
- 22' – MTL – Dominic Oduro
- 32' – MTL – Ignacio Piatti (Matteo Mancosu)

Three Things
- TURN THAT CALENDAR: September hasn't been kind to the Impact, who lost four times and were winless in five, but they closed out the penultimate month of the regular season with a much-needed three points. It was Montreal's second win in their last nine games, but it was enough to hold onto fifth place in the Eastern Conference, one point ahead of D.C. United.
- OH-FOR-EVER: Montreal has never lost to San Jose in MLS play with three wins and two draws in five all-time meetings. All three victories have come at Stade Saputo. The teams each held serve at home in two CONCACAF Champions League encounters in 2013.
- SAN JOSE SWOON: While Montreal got off the schneid, the Earthquakes struggles continue. They are winless in seven matches, dating back to August 12 and are seven points behind the playoff line in the Western Conference with four games remaining.

Tiny and Useless Linen French Apron Belt
Tiny and useless apron
Thick sturdy linen tiny apron
total width of apron (including lace): 13"
Each tie is 27" long (total band width is 63")
Basically a tie belt that adds character and shape to any dress
one size fits most xs-3xl (please forgive me I meant to make the ties longer so that it could fit up to 6xl but there was a miscommunication and the ties aren't as long as i would like for curve waist sizes. It can still fit a size 4xl but you'd have to tie it in a knot instead of a bow as intended. If I do a re-stock I will definitely correct this!)

Baseball season is underway. One way to celebrate is with movies about baseball. Actually, I use these movies to fill the first three months of many years, keeping the spirit of baseball alive in me until spring training is nearly over and the real season is about to start.
These happen to be the movies that I own and like to watch. I do not pretend to have a list of the best baseball movies ever made, and I do not want to try to rank the movies from least favorite to most favorite. For that reason, I am listing them in alphabetical order. Even though I like some better than others, I am not a qualified film critic. I don't even play one on TV.
SPOILER ALERT: In some cases, to describe a movie fairly, I will have to comment on the way it ends. If you have not seen these movies and think you might want to see them, you may want to stop reading now. You have been warned.
Bad News Bears (1976): starring Walter Matthau and Tatum O'Neal. A former baseball player is persuaded to coach a community team of misfits and losers in the summer league. Naturally, he grows as a person by working with these children, and they come together as a team under his guidance. Because this movie was made in the 1970s, one of the lessons they learn is that they do not need to win the game in order to be champions.
Bang the Drum Slowly (1973): starring Robert De Niro and Michael Moriarty. A baseball version of Brian's Song, but in this case the catcher (De Niro) has Hodgkin's Disease, and his friend the pitcher (Moriarty) is at first the only person on the team to know this secret. The pleasure of this movie is to see the back scenes of baseball, the way the players talk and act in the locker room and in their motel rooms and other places off the field. Especially memorable is the way they con money out of fans by inviting them to play a card game called TEGWAR—The Excellent Game Without Any Rules.
Bull Durham (1988): starring Kevin Costner, Susan Sarandon, and Tim Robbins. An aging catcher in the minor leagues must mentor an up-and-coming young pitcher, while both are being followed by a mystically-minded fan who wants more than just to watch the game. This is the only R-rated movie on my list; it is one to watch only after the children are in bed.
Damn Yankees (1958): starring Tab Hunter, Gwen Verdon, and Jean Stapleton. A fan of the Washington Senators sells his soul to the devil in order to become a star baseball player and lead his team to victory, especially to success over the New York Yankees. It is a Broadway musical about baseball (and about temptation), so the characters sometimes break into song and dance. The movie's choreographer, the great Bob Fosse, dances in one scene (that has nothing to do with baseball). That scene alone makes the movie worth the price of admission.
Eight Men Out (1988): starring John Cusack, Charlie Sheen, and D. B. Sweeney. This movie is a dramatization of the Black Sox scandal of 1919, when eight players were barred from the game because they took money from gamblers who wanted their team (the Chicago White Sox) to lose the World Series on purpose. As a baseball movie it succeeds, although I cannot vouch for its historical accuracy, and – despite the fine cast – I am not sure it ranks as a successful movie over all.
Field of Dreams (1989): starring Kevin Costner (again), James Earl Jones, Amy Madigan, and Burt Lancaster. This movie is about baseball and about much more: about family and loyalty, about following one's dreams at any cost, and about perceiving the magic that surrounds us in the everyday world. An Iowa farmer hears voices telling him to build a baseball field. When he builds it, the eight players portrayed in Eight Men Out appear and play baseball. A lot more happens after that. Field of Dreams is based on the novel Shoeless Joe Jackson Comes to Iowa, written by W. P. Kinsella. He wrote a good novel, but they made a great movie from his story by cutting out about half his characters and shortening the drama. Someday I may write an entire post about this one movie.

If you're like me, the last thing you want to do is spend time setting up a social media account on yet another site. But this video from Epipheo makes a pretty good point: We use Google for just about everything else, so why fight this? I do like the practical idea of the circles — and am most amused by the concept of a "People I hate" circle.
Granted, I'm as unhappy as you are about the seemingly monopolistic tone of all of this, but, on the other hand…..meh.

Every three years we have a party for the girls - 3, 6, 9, 12, 15....
This year it was the fifteenth birthday of the oldest child. Much planning. Many fairy lights. I over-catered a bit. Well, a lot. Those teenage girls eat like birds. If the birds were tiny and not naughty ibis. (On a side note, I had my children convinced that the proper name for the garbage bin birds known as ibis was 'Naughty Ibis' for years after one of them stole a sandwich right out of Gab's hand at a picnic at Southbank one day). We had baked potatoes filled with mince and coleslaw, salad and cheese and stuff- an excellent meal to feed lots of people with an indeterminate number of gluten frees, vegetarians, vegans and carnivores.
45 of her closest friends all came dressed as something starting with 'A'. There were Assassins, Allsorts, Athletes, Angels, Amigos, Aphrodite, Ants, Athena, an Award, ANne of Green Gables, Aurora, Arwen, Ariel and A person. Annika went as Audrey Hepburn.
I was pretty proud of my hair and make up job - although she raced off before I could get a close up photo of it. We found her dress and jewellary at an opshop.
There was music and some dancing and many many selfies and photos taken by the girls. I probably only embarrassed my children a few times by dancing or trying to crack jokes with their friends.
I dressed up as an Angel. I thought I would hairspray my hair out from my head so it would be like a golden halo of light. This is what I thought in my head. In reality, coupled with the extremely red face I got from cooking in a hot kitchen all night for the party, I looked more like Asylum Escapee. Oh well. That wasn't embarrassing for my teenage daughter. Dum de dum. Not one bit.
Happy birthday my very grown up person who is kind of a mini me - but taller.....
It is so lovely to see her growing up and becoming the person God designed her to be. And phew - done grade nine with one girl. One down, one to go.

Do you feel tired & exhausted all the time?
Do you have brain fog that keeps you from being productive?
Do you experience mood swings all the time for no apparent reasons?
Do you have unwanted extra pounds that you would love to say good bye to?
Our health is directly related to our habits and lifestyle… most of us have not been taught the how to maintain health and why it is so important. There are reasons why your health goes south on you or why you gain few extra pounds every New Year's Eve. Life gets in the way, stress, anxiety raise up, we lack education on what we really eat on a daily basis and so on. The fact of the matter is if you do not pay attention and listen to the wake up call within you or to the signals that your body sends you can end up very sick and your love ones too. I am talking from experience.
I was 30 lbs overweight, my youngest daughter's health issues with Candida, I witnessed my dad passing from leukemia, and my mom still today dealing with multiple degenerative diseases, needless to say that over those years I lost balance, control of my financials, I got deeply in debts, anxious, stressed out, living endless struggles and had no desires for tomorrow as I was too exhausted to have hope.
Your health is your fuel, without it you simply stop. I had to do something and take my health back otherwise who would have been able to take care of my girls. You see we think that health is granted to us but it isn't. Taking care of your health is taking care of YOU.
The process of working together:
My approach is unique as it is customized for your specific needs.
We begin with a Bio Well Health Assessment, that leads to the discovery of how your body manages stress which provides us lots of information about what is going on with your body. Then we go through a Needs Analysis to find out any concerns, wants and the desired outcomes.
Following the needs analysis and the bio well assessment we discuss the best approach and program to move forward with. Further more, the technology and the coaching processes that we use help us to uncover the causes that led to the health issues or the emotional trigger that created any unwanted pounds.
We help you finding your "why", your real desire to make a change by providing health education, and by working with you on the application of the program, plan that we decide together. Other approaches can be recommended based on specific needs as we move along.
My intention is to see your transformation, feeling spectacular, vibrant and energized about yourself!
Here what you will experience over my 90-Day Double Your Energy and Feel Spectacular Total Transformation Program :

AbstractAdvances in solar photovoltaics are urgently needed to increase the performance and reduce the cost of harvesting solar power. Solution-processed photovoltaics are cost-effective to manufacture and offer the potential for physical flexibility. Rapid progress in their development has increased their solar-power conversion efficiencies. The nanometre (electron) and micrometre (photon) scale interfaces between the crystalline domains that make up solution-processed solar cells are crucial for efficient charge transport. These interfaces include large surface area junctions between photoelectron donors and acceptors, the intralayer grain boundaries within the absorber, and the interfaces between photoactive layers and the top and bottom contacts. Controlling the collection and minimizing the trapping of charge carriers at these boundaries is crucial to efficiency. © 2012 Macmillan Publishers Limited. All rights reserved.

What You Should Know About Ipe Decking
Your home is your most valuable asset. A home is an investment, and it can also make your life more stable. If you are a homeowner, you should know that you have many different responsibilities to concern yourself with. A good HVAC system is crucial, and you'll also want to look at your home's plumbing. Ultimately, though, nothing is more relevant than your deck. A good deck can make your home much more comfortable and relaxing. At the same time, though, maintaining a deck isn't easy.
The truth is that your deck will be subjected to a significant amount of abuse. Your pets will be out on your deck, and your kids may also play on it. The biggest factor will usually be the weather. Your deck will be out in the weather, every single day. You need to plan ahead if you want your deck to stand the test of time.
Nothing is more relevant than durability. As you are no doubt aware, it can cost a great deal of money to replace a deck. It's much more reasonable to maintain the deck that you already have. You'll want to think about the wood that you use as you install your deck. As you assess your wood, there are several elements that you'll want to consider. To get started, you'll want to look at color. Ideally, you will want a deck that complements your home. From there, you should look at durability. You will want to know that your deck will last.
Finding Ways To Keep Up With Tips
You may also want to think about price. Fortunately, you do not need to spend a large sum of money to find a good deck. By doing your research, you can find decking that fits within your budget. If you're not sure of where to start, it may make sense to look at Ipe decking. Ipe decking is incredibly consistent, and it's also very durable. If you're serious about building a great deck, it's important for you to plan ahead.
Never underestimate the value of maintenance. If you maintain your deck, it will last much longer. When a deck isn't properly maintained, though, it will not last. As you are no doubt aware, maintenance does not need to be overly complex. Make it a priority to pressure wash your deck every single year. You should also sweep it regularly. The bottom line is that if you care about your deck, you owe it to yourself to invest in Ipe decking.A Beginners Guide To Decks

RTA extends IAP to cover mobile cranes
Mobile cranes using NSW roads will get the big brother treatment after RTA announces IAP extensionJune 10, 2011
Mobile cranes using the NSW road network will get the big brother treatment after the Roads and Traffic Authority extended the Intelligent Access Program's (IAP) coverage.
The move brings NSW into line with Victoria, which applied the GPS tracking tool to mobile cranes when it introduced the monitoring tool.
A spokesperson for the RTA says IAP will apply to mobile cranes defined as 'high risk' travelling on NSW roads and to ensure consistency for all vehicles operating under higher mass limits (HML).
Currently, trucking operators wanting HML access must enrol in IAP.
"A three month transition will start from 27 June to allow crane operators sufficient time to ensure they are enrolled in the IAP," the spokesperson says.
The RTA has no made no secret of its desire to expand the coverage of IAP. In 2009 it advocated for the program to be used to electronically monitor speed and fatigue.
While some trucking operators have managed to gain payload increases using the scheme, others who have enrolled have lost money because councils refuse to grant access to local roads and bridges.

Warner Bros brought a lot of cool content to San Diego Comic-Con this past summer, among which included the first Wonder Woman trailer. It provided an excellent first taste of what to expect from Diana of Themyscira's solo movie, from the World War I setting to seeing her wield magic weaponry against enemy soldiers. It's only been three months since that trailer premiered, and we still have eight more months to go until the movie's release, but fans should brace themselves for another preview.
Last week, the next Wonder Woman trailer was classified, meaning it could arrive as soon as later this week with the U.S. release of Doctor Strange or later in November alongside a blockbuster like Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Either way, it's coming soon, and we've taken the opportunity to list the five main things we want Warner Bros and DC to show us in the preview.
The Clearly-Identified Main Villain
There were two figures in the first Wonder Woman trailer who were implied to be the movie's primary antagonists, though that doesn't necessarily mean there won't be more evildoers. The first was Elena Anaya's character, a lady wearing an unusual mask covering her nose, mouth and left cheek. Anaya later confirmed that she will be playing a villain, but did not reveal who. The second figure was Danny Huston's character, a man dressed in a military uniform who appeared to be Diana's target at a fancy gala, judging by the way she was reaching for her sword.
While these ambiguous shots were appropriate for the teaser, now's the time that Wonder Woman should make clear who will be the main antagonist of the story will be, if only because neither DC or Warner Bros have officially announced who it is. Previous reports indicated it would be Ares, and he will supposedly be partnered with Circe. Huston seems like a good fit for Ares, but we're skeptical about if Anaya is playing Circe. Regardless, the next trailer needs to clearly show which mystical adversaries Diana will battle in her solo adventure. After all, it's not like she'll be beating up Central Powers soldiers the whole time.
Themyscira's City
The first Wonder Woman preview provided a few decent looks at Themyscira, the secluded island where Diana and the other Amazons live. The first was the shoreline where Steve Trevor washed up, and is later used as a battleground for the Amazons and WWI soldiers. Then there was a brief shot of what looked like an outdoor temple where Queen Hippolyta and other Amazons were gathered around Diana.
That was a good start, but it would be amazing to see what Themyscira's main city looks like during the next trailer. While Themyscira does have ties to ancient Greek culture (more on that on the next page), it's also a society that's been secluded from the outside world for a long time. So just like with the MCU's Asgard, this is a metropolis that will feature unusual architecture, making it feel like it's located on a different world. Yes, longtime comic book fans are quite familiar with Themyscira, but casual viewers need to understand what kind of environment Diana has been living in all these years; hence why she's so astounded by what she sees across war-torn Europe.
Wonder Woman has always been tied to the Greek gods, and her solo movie will be no exception. When asked by Steve Trevor if she ever met her father, she stated she hadn't because she had been brought to life by Zeus. This is keeping in line with Diana's New 52 origin, and if Zeus exists in the DC Extended Universe, that means the other Greek gods do, too. While we don't expect to see all of the gods revealed in the Wonder Woman previews, it would be nice to at least see Diana's "daddy."
Of all the main actors whose characters haven't been identified yet, Harry Potter actor David Thewlis seems like the best bet to be playing Zeus in the movie. Whether he actually slept with Hippolyta like in the New 52 or merely breathed life into her using his amazing powers remains to be seen, but you can count on him being an important figure in Wonder Woman. That said, there is one thing we hope isn't spoiled in this trailer or any other previews: Mount Olympus. Don't show what the domain of the gods looks like until the movie itself is released.
Diana's Gladiator Match
Wonder Woman's origin story may not be as well known as Batman or Superman's, but it does have its recurring elements. One of the more frequent ones is how Diana became the woman to escort Steve Trevor back to the outside world. In most re-tellings of her origin, a contest was held to decide who should take Steve back. It was a non-lethal battle among the Amazons, and the last woman standing won the honor. As you can already predict, Diana was victorious, although in some versions of the story, she was forbidden from participating the contest, forcing her to enter disguised.
We're not saying that Wonder Woman will show this contest. It's possible that Hippolyta will do away with the ceremonial battle and merely select Diana because she's the right one for the task. However, if we do see this contest, provide a taste of it in the trailer. Let's see what Amazon combat looks like against one another, giving us a better idea of how they'll fare against the human invaders that will later come to Themyscira.
By now, most of you know that Wonder Woman will primarily take place in World War I. The story will show what Diana's first time in the outside world was like and why she decided to turn her back on humanity until the events of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice 100 years later. However, it looks like some of the movie will be set in the modern era, judging by set photos that showed Gal Gadot's Diana in what looked like present-day Gotham City next to a Wayne Enterprises truck. It was also rumored beforehand that Batman would cameo near the end of the movie. Keep in mind that a Dark Knight appearance hasn't been confirmed, but it seems likelier than not at this point.
Assuming Batman does appear, this next trailer would be wise to include him, though only for a second or two at most. Wonder Woman already has a lot going for it; great action (from what we've seen so far), an interesting cast, the World War I time period and it being the DCEU's first female-led movie. A sneak peek at Ben Affleck's Batman would get casual moviegoers even more excited for its release. Whether you can't see enough of Batman on the big screen or think he's been overexposed, there's no denying that the Caped Crusader puts butts in seats.

The amount of sugar your child consumes has a huge bearing on their tooth decay risk: The more they take in, the higher it is for this destructive disease. That's why you should moderate their intake of the usual suspects: sodas, candies and other sugar-laden foods. But you should also put the brakes on something considered wholesome and nutritious: fruit juices. And that includes all natural juice with no sugar added.
Sugar in any form is a prime food source for decay-causing bacteria. As bacteria consume leftover sugar in the mouth, they produce acid as a byproduct. With an ample source of sugar, they also multiply—and this in turn increases their acid production. Acid at these high levels can soften and erode tooth enamel, which leads to tooth decay and cavities.
Limiting or even excluding sugar-added foods and snacks can help minimize your children's risk for tooth decay. For designated snack times, substitute items like carrot sticks or even popcorn with a dash of spice rather than sweet snacks and candies. If you do allow occasional sweet foods, limit those to mealtimes when saliva, which neutralizes acid, is most active in the mouth.
As you manage sugary items your children may eat or drink, the American Academy of Pediatrics also advises you to moderate their consumption of fruit juices, including all-natural brands with no added sugar. Their recommended limits on daily juice drinking depend on a child's age and overall health:
- Infants (less than one year) or any children with abnormal weight gain: no juice at all;
- Toddlers (ages 1-3): 4 ounces or less per day;
- Younger children (4-6): 6 ounces or less per day; and
- Older children (7-18): 8 ounces (1 cup) or less per day.
As for the rest of your children's daily hydration needs, the most dental-friendly liquid for any of us is plain water. For older school-age children, low- or non-fat milk is also a sound choice.
Preventing tooth decay in your children is a continuous task that requires all of us, parents and dental providers, to do our part. Besides daily hygiene (brushing and flossing) and regular dental visits, keeping sugar at bay—including with juices—is an important part of that effort.
If you would like more information on best dental health practices for children, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation.
In many parts of the country, summer is often a synonym for "blast furnace" and can be downright hot and miserable. If you find yourself in such a climate, it's imperative that you drink plenty of water to beat both the heat and heat-related injuries. Your teeth and gums are another reason to keep hydrated during those hot summer months.
Your body needs water to produce all that saliva swishing around in your mouth. When you have less water available in your system, the production of this important bodily fluid can go down—and this can increase your risk of dental disease. That's because saliva performs a number of tasks that enhance dental health. It helps rinse the mouth of excess food particles after eating that could become a prime food source for disease-causing bacteria. It also contains antibodies that serve as the first line of defense against harmful microorganisms entering through the mouth.
Perhaps saliva's most important role, though, is protecting and strengthening enamel, the teeth's outer "armor" against disease. Although the strongest substance in the body, enamel has one principal foe: oral acid. If the mouth's normally neutral pH becomes too acidic, the minerals in enamel begin to soften and dissolve. In response, saliva neutralizes acid and re-mineralizes softened enamel.
Without a healthy salivary flow protecting the mouth in these different ways, the teeth and gums are vulnerable to assault from bacteria and acid. As they gain the upper hand, the risk for tooth decay or periodontal (gum) disease can skyrocket. Keeping yourself adequately hydrated ensures your body can produce an ample flow of saliva.
By the way, summer heat isn't the only cause for reduced saliva: Certain prescription medications may also interfere with its production. Chemotherapy and radiation, if targeting cancer near the head or neck, can damage salivary glands and impact flow as well.
If you have reduced saliva from medication you're taking, talk to your doctor about switching to an alternative prescription that doesn't affect saliva production. If you're undergoing cancer treatment, be extra vigilant about your oral hygiene practice and regular dental visits. And as with summer heat, be sure you're drinking plenty of water to help offset these other effects.
Even when it's hot, summertime should be a time for fun and relaxation. Don't let the heat ruin it—for your health or your smile.
If you would like more information about the oral health benefits of saliva and how to protect it, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation.
Most dental problems arise from tooth decay and periodontal (gum) disease. But they aren't the only source of danger to your teeth—gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) could be just as damaging to your tooth enamel as dental disease.
GERD usually occurs when a ring of muscles at the top of the stomach weaken, allowing stomach acid to enter the esophagus. This resulting acid reflux can make life unpleasant and pose potential health dangers—over time it can damage the lining of the esophagus and cause ulcers and pre-cancerous cells. It can also erode tooth enamel if acid enters the mouth and raises its level of acidity.
This can be a problem because acid can soften and dissolve the mineral content of tooth enamel. This is the primary cause of tooth decay as acid produced by oral bacteria attack enamel. The more bacteria present, often thriving in dental plaque, the higher the potential levels of acid that can damage enamel. Stomach acid, which is strong enough to break down food, can cause similar harm to enamel if it causes higher than normal acidity in the mouth.
There are some things you can do to protect your teeth if you have GERD, namely manage your GERD symptoms with lifestyle changes and medication. You may need to avoid alcohol, caffeine or heavily acidic or spicy foods, all known to aggravate GERD symptoms. Quitting smoking and avoiding late night meals might also ease indigestion. And your doctor may recommend over-the-counter or prescription drugs to help control your acid reflux.
You can also boost your teeth's enamel health by practicing daily brushing and flossing—but not right after a reflux episode. The enamel could be softened, so brushing can potentially remove tiny particles of mineral content. Instead, rinse with water mixed with or without a little baking soda to help neutralize acid and wait about an hour—this will give saliva, the mouth's natural acid neutralizer, time to restore the mouth's normal pH level.
And be sure you're using a fluoride toothpaste. Fluoride strengthens enamel—in fact, your dentist may recommend topical fluoride applications to boost the effect.
These and other tips can help minimize the effects of GERD on your dental health. With an ounce of prevention, you can keep it from permanently damaging your teeth.
If you would like more information on managing your dental health with GERD, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "GERD and Oral Health."
Preventing tooth decay is mostly about the basics: daily brushing and flossing followed by regular dental cleanings and checkups. But there's also a bigger picture: your own personal risk profile for decay based on factors you can modify directly — and those you can't.
The first type of factor usually involves habits and behavior that either work with your mouth's natural defenses to fight decay or against it. Besides regular hygiene, your diet is probably the most important of these you can modify for better dental health.
A diet rich in fresh vegetables, protein and dairy products boosts strong, healthy teeth resistant to decay. Conversely, bacteria thrive on the sugar in many snack foods, while sodas, sports or energy drinks elevate acid levels that soften and erode the minerals in your teeth's enamel.
Lifestyle habits like tobacco use or excessive alcohol consumption also increase your decay risk. Not only do they promote plaque buildup (the thin film of bacteria and food particles that feeds the decay process), but tobacco especially can impede the body's natural prevention and healing properties.
Conscientious hygiene practices, a dental-friendly diet and modified lifestyle habits all can help you prevent decay. But diligence may not be enough — there are other possible factors you can't control or may find difficult to change. For example, you may have a genetic propensity toward certain bacteria that cause decay. You may have a condition like gastric reflux that increases the mouth's acid level. You may also be taking medications that reduce saliva flow, the mouth's natural acid neutralizer.
But if we know which of these indirect risk factors affect you, we can compensate with extra measures. If enamel strength is a problem we can topically apply fluoride; we can also reduce chronic bacterial levels with prescription rinses. If you have restricted saliva flow, we can attempt to modify your prescriptions through your doctor or prescribe aids that increase saliva.
The key is to investigate your complete risk factor profile through a thorough dental examination. Once we know everything about your mouth, life and health that increases your decay risk, we can put in place a balanced strategy of prevention and treatment just for you. Doing so will greatly increase your chances for keeping your teeth decay-free and healthy.

Cavities can happen even before a baby has his first piece of candy. This was the difficult lesson actor David Ramsey of the TV shows Arrow and Dexter learned when his son DJ's teeth were first emerging.
"His first teeth came in weak," Ramsey recalled in a recent interview. "They had brown spots on them and they were brittle." Those brown spots, he said, quickly turned into caviÂties. How did this happen?
Ramsey said DJ's dentist suspected it had to do with the child's feedings — not what he was being fed but how. DJ was often nursed to sleep, "so there were pools of breast milk that he could go to sleep with in his mouth," Ramsey explained.
While breastfeeding offers an infant many health benefits, problems can occur when the natural sugars in breast milk are left in contact with teeth for long periods. Sugar feeds decay-causing oral bacteria, and these bacteria in turn release tooth-eroding acids. The softer teeth of a young child are particularly vulnerable to these acids; the end result can be tooth decay.
This condition, technically known as "early child caries," is referred to in laymen's terms as "baby bottle tooth decay." However, it can result from nighttime feedings by bottle or breast. The best way to prevent this problem is to avoid nursing babies to sleep at night once they reach the teething stage; a bottle-fed baby should not be allowed to fall asleep with anything but water in their bottle or "sippy cup."
Here are some other basics of infant dental care that every parent should know:
- Wipe your baby's newly emerging teeth with a clean, moist washcloth after feedings.
- Brush teeth that have completely grown in with a soft-bristled, child-size toothbrush and a smear of fluoride toothpaste no bigger than a grain of rice.
- Start regular dental checkups by the first birthday.
Fortunately, Ramsey reports that his son is doing very well after an extended period of professional dental treatments and parental vigilance.
"It took a number of months, but his teeth are much, much better," he said. "Right now we're still helping him and we're still really on top of the teeth situation."

Are all innovation scenarios same? Will one model work for all. Surely, no.
In one scenario, you have a blank canvas to start with but also a directive to achieve something distinct at the end of the journey. Typically, this is when you wish to create some product or service for the future which is not a modification of an existing one but a brand new creation. However, the end shape is pre-determined, so you need to start from anywhere but keep narrowing down to the desired destination as you go along.
In another scenario, you necessarily need to start from some existing product or process and improve it or solve some problem in it. In this scenario, you are not starting from a blank canvas. the start point is defined, though the course of the journey thereafter is not.
In yet another scenario, you may start from scratch and are not even restricted in your choice of destinations. After all, you can't design a Giraffe by re-modelling a Camel. Pure design thinking, as you do when you set out to choose a business model or create something that may please a certain segment. There is no other restriction.
The triggers are different in each case. If your model of innovation does not suit the starting trigger, you'll flounder throughout.
There is only one innovation model that accepts all these three triggers – the Trinity Trigger model of Innovation.

"Simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication" ~ Leonardo Davinci. This is a motto that guides my design principles.
I like to keep things simple and minimal allowing each design feature and decor item to speak for itself. This is the same rule I apply when I am styling a coffee table.
Tips on how to style a coffee table that will accommodate almost any style:
- I always love adding fresh flowers, plants or greenery to add life and color to a room. It could be as simple as fresh flowers in a mason jar, as I have here, or potted plants or some faux greenery in a vase.
- I have a number of items on my coffee table such as the candle, vase, paper weight and bead garland. To keep it looking clean and clutter free, I added a tray to store all the items. I chose a tray that complements the decor of my home. In my case I chose this gold mirror tray that really ties in all the pieces adding a level of sophistication to the overall look of the coffee table.
- To create visual interest, I added some contrasting pieces such as the natural wood bead garland wrapped around the mason jar next to the polish gold apple paper weight. The different material choices immediately draws your attention to it, not in a negative way but in a complementary way.
- The purpose of the candle here is to add varying height to the coffee table. If everything on the table is the same height, it will often look boring and cluttered. By adding objects with varying heights it keeps the eye moving and captivated. That and I simple love candles. You'll see them pretty much in every room of my house (with the exception of the kid's room and their bathroom). They are pretty to have around but also keep the house smelling fresh!
- Coffee table books are just one of my favorite accessories in the house. Find one that interests you and they are often very well designed so it looks great in any home. It also allows your guest something to browse when they are visiting. Magazines are also great options and you can always stack them to create varying height as mentioned above in #4. Rule of thumb: stack in odd numbers.

The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures (GameCube) review
"Nintendo's commitment to creative design is clear, but it can be difficult to enjoy when it comes in a form seemingly fathered by the same ruthless pimping that sees Mario crying himself to sleep at nights."

Effect of Aspect Ratio and Semi Cone Angle on the Stability Behaviour of a Conical Hydrodynamic Journal Bearing
International Conference on Advances in Thermal Systems, Materials and Design Engineering (ATSMDE2017)
9 Pages Posted: 12 Feb 2018 Last revised: 3 Aug 2020
Date Written: December 21, 2017
The combined radial and axial load carrying features of conical hydrodynamic journal bearing emerge as a better option in many turbo-machines for two separate bearings i.e. journal and thrust pad bearings. Requirements of accurate rotation of the spindle for high precision machining operations are depend on load carrying capacity and dynamic stability of bearings. The present study proposed the analysis of conical hydrodynamic journal bearing for aspect ratio (λ = 0.5, 1.0, 1.5) and semi-cone angles (γ = 5°, 10°, 20°), when load variations in terms of eccentricity (ε = 0.35, 0.55) for wide range of operating speeds (Ω = 0.25-1.5). FEA based analytical method was used and results were presented for radial and axial load carrying capabilities, stiffness coefficients, damping coefficients and threshold speed. It was found that load carrying capabilities of conical hydrodynamic journal bearing is increases with increase of aspect ratio and semi cone angle. Threshold speed (ω ̅_th) of bearing is marginally decreases with increase of semi cone angle. Whereas results also indicate the improvement of stability in terms of threshold speed (ω ̅_th) for short length conical journal bearing (λ = 0.5).
Keywords: Aspect Ratio, Conical Journal Bearing, Stiffness and Damping Coefficients, Threshold Speed

Dependencies are a big hassle in modern software. Many libraries depend on other, non-JDK library parts that come in different, incompatible versions, potentially causing trouble in your runtime environment. jOOQ has no external dependencies on any third-party libraries.
However, the above rule has some exceptions:
- logging APIs are referenced as "optional dependencies". jOOQ tries to find slf4j on the classpath. If it fails, it will use the java.util.logging.Logger
- Oracle ojdbc types used for array creation are loaded using reflection. The same applies to SQL Server types and Postgres PG* types.
- Small libraries with compatible licenses are incorporated into jOOQ. These include jOOR, jOOU, parts of OpenCSV, json simple, parts of commons-lang
- javax.persistence and javax.validation will be needed if you activate the relevant code generation flags

On 4th December 2017 the French Supreme court (Conseil d'Etat) has ruled against the French Tax Authorities regarding a decision of rejecting an EU refund directive claim (formerly 8th Directive) on the basis that the VAT refund claim was submitted after the deadline of 30th September.
This case was in regard to a 2011 VAT refund claim submitted by an Italian company (Costa Crociere SPA) in France.
The legal basis for this decision is that Article 15 of the EC directive, which provides a deadline for submitting an EU refund directive claim on the 30th of September of the calendar year following the refund period, has never been transcribed within the French VAT law (article 242-0 R of Annex II to the French Tax Code).
Therefore, the court ruled that in the case of the refund application of input VAT paid in France in 2011, submitted on 1st of October 2012 by Costa Crociere SPA via the Italian electronic portal, this was not considered to be a late application.
This decision from the French Supreme court opens the possibility within the French VAT system which could in theory see unsubmitted or rejected claims for late submission being accepted until the implementation of the Article 15 of the EC directive occurs within the French Tax code.
It appears however, that the claims where this could refer to would be limited to the period of 2016, as the general limit laid down for contentious claims is no later than the 31st December of the second year following that during which the input VAT became recoverable.
To this date, the transcription of Article 15 in the French Tax code has not been confirmed by the French Parliament.
Businesses that consider they may have unrecovered French input VAT for 2016 or those that had claims rejected for late submission should look to act as soon as possible.
