Is cosmetic dentistry a useless and vain industry? Is it a sales gimmick or actually something useful? Compare what you know with some of the facts about cosmetic treatments.
Dentistry – The Multi-Faceted Science
Dentistry has grown to encompass so much more than the classic drill-and-fill. There are now areas of specialty practice that focus on gum care, orthodontics, surgery, endodontics, restorations, prosthodontics, and more. Another area of special concern is the cosmetic field.
Cosmetic dentistry focuses on making changes to the smile that improve its appearance. A cosmetic procedure is not something you have to have done like a filling or crown. Reconstructive procedures are generally important to saving teeth or preserving the structure of your face or retaining healthy bite function. Cosmetic procedures are purely, well, cosmetic. They are something you choose to do just because you want to.
Some examples of cosmetic treatment include:
Where Can You Find Cosmetic Dental Treatment?
Lots of general dentists provide cosmetic services. But some dentists feature cosmetic work at their practice and invest the majority of their energy into enhancing the appearance of a smile. Your regular dentist can refer you to skilled specialist if you're interested in a particular procedure.
Cosmetic Dentistry: Worth a Look!
Why choose cosmetic dentistry? Here are some of the benefits:
Where does cosmetic treatment rank on your list of dental priorities? Visit your local dentist to schedule a smile makeover consultation.

Are you looking for a new cosmetic dentist? Or are you considering having a smile makeover done? If so then you need to know how to choose the best cosmetic dentist for your smile needs. Here are a few things that you need to consider:
Ask around. Free to talk to friends, neighbors, and colleagues about who they use for their dental treatment. If you know someone that has a beautiful smile, ask them which dentist they see. Having a good reputation as a dentist is extremely important. Some of the best referrals a dentist can get come from people like you asking their friends about their dental care. Plus, you know you can always trust a friend's opinion when it comes to the quality of care given to them by their dental provider. You will get real life, unfiltered advice.
Does your dentist have extensive experience and a certain type of procedure or training? Some cosmetic dentists may offer a service that they do not perform very often. By choosing a dentist that specializes in cosmetic dentistry, you can achieve better results from your care investment.
Services Offered
Not every dentist offers the same types of cosmetic dental procedures. Some dentists prefer to do more veneers and whitening. Others like to use braces or porcelain crowns. It's important to consider what type of options you want to discuss as part of your smile makeover before you choose a dentist. Finding a cosmetic dentist that offers a variety of services can help you customize your treatment to fit your needs the best way, tailoring your treatment plan on a tooth-by-tooth basis.

Delaying dental treatment doesn't mean the teeth won't get any worse. In fact, most conditions become more complicated, expensive, and invasive the longer they are put off. What could be a filling today will become a root canal and dental crown tomorrow. Or worse, a tooth that needs to be extracted.
If you've been putting your dental care off because of how much it costs, then it's time to reconsider. Here are some simple tips to keep in mind when you want to reduce the long-term cumulative amount you spend on dental care:
Use your preventive coverage as much as possible.
It's not uncommon to have patients with insurance coverage that never see their dentist until there is a problem, and are then upset because of how much it is going to cost to get their mouth healthy again. Taking advantage of bi-annual cleanings, exams, and x-rays can catch things before they happen.
Ask about financing options.
Most dental offices accept major credit cards, and have some type of financing option such as in-house financing or a 3rd party 0% or low interest financing plan. Taking advantage of these will help save your teeth and keep care expenses down when they are addressed earlier.
Weigh your treatment options.
You might really prefer one type of treatment, although other options are available. Weigh the pros and cons to each type of therapy, as well as their costs. Which one will cost less in the long-run? A bridge that involves 2 healthy teeth, or a stand-alone dental implant?
Visit a dental school.
They can be very difficult to get into as a patient, but dental schools need patients in order to successfully train their students. Experienced dentists supervise care, and although the treatment time will take much longer, the price is greatly reduced.

The field of dentistry in general, and cosmetic dentistry in particular, is changing rapidly today due to technological advances in procedures and materials. Improvements in whitening procedures, tooth restorations, and smile correction or enhancements are but a few areas on the cutting edge of technology. With this in mind, how can you be confident in choosing a cosmetic dentist that can best meet your individual needs?
It may take a bit of personal commitment and wherewithal to ensure that you get the most from your future dental investment. First of all, you can contact the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD) to find out if your dental professional has continued to pursue education in the latest technological advancements. Be sure to check on your dentist's credentials and membership organizations. Your family doctor or regular dentist may be willing to refer you to a good cosmetic dentist.
Check with your friends or coworkers if some have had recent dental restorative work performed. If you already have a specific procedure in mind, you could schedule a consultation to determine if your dentist has experience in that particular area. Ask your dentist for recommendations or photos of other patients who have had similar procedures. Don't be timid about asking your dental professional about the quality of his dental lab.
Following these procedures will help you feel confident that your cosmetic dentist has the skill, experience and expertise to accomplish your goals for that winning smile. Cosmetic dentistry today is reasonably affordable so don't compromise on quality of materials or workmanship for lower costs. Your dental health and wellbeing is worth the time and effort to ensure you the most benefit from your cosmetic dental professional.

It seems that many neighborhoods today are hosting "Smile" Clinics instead of Dental Offices. When this trend first materialized, one thought it was just an attempt to lessen the overall general anxiety of a dental visit by appearing to be warm, friendly and welcoming (like a smile). But, further analysis may lead one to conclude that this is just a smart marketing campaign!
In a country where beauty and near perfection are the desired norm, to be applauded, rewarded and idolized, surely everyone desires to present to the world and those around the best possible face. To do so, requires a warm, engaging, healthy and beautifully white smile! Beauty and healthy "appearing" are virtually synonymous; that which appears healthy is beautiful and desired! No longer is one forced to endure the disadvantage of bad teeth or gums, misshapen or misaligned teeth, rendering a person's smile less than desirable. With the addition of porcelain veneers, crown, dental bridges, dental implants and teeth whitening, cosmetic dentistry can give you the dazzling smile that you've always wanted.
Having such an award winning, magazine cover, smile has inestimable value. First impressions matter and having a great looking smile gives one much personal confidence. Smiling can literally open up a world of opportunities to an individual, as it presents your face to others as open, inviting and honest. Your positive attitude and optimism will increase and shine forth. Smiling can help get you that new job, or promotion, or raise that you've been wishing for. Who knows, facing each day with a smile could actually make you feel happier throughout the day. Best of all, smiling will let others smile back at you! So, check out your cosmetic dentistry options and SMILE!

Generally, cosmetic dentistry can be considered as that which deals with the "appearance" of teeth rather than the health of teeth. However, the line between is often blurred and not necessarily so easy to define. What may look better could also be healthier. Obviously, much of cosmetic dentistry is based on personal needs, preferences and opinions.
Non-cosmetic dentistry is sometimes referred to as "aesthetic" because it implies restoring teeth to their formerly natural appearance; whereas, cosmetic dentistry seeks to improve on what nature has done in order to produce teeth that look better. Of course, when a tooth is damaged, either through accident or disease, some cosmetic application is required to "restore" that tooth to its former function, if not appearance. If a tooth cracks down into its root, is it cosmetic or functional to replace it with a crown? In many cases, a root canal and crown are used to save a tooth and not to beautify.
A definitive line could perhaps be drawn where a procedure is strictly limited to a desired outcome of appearance. For instance, using dental bonding material to reshape or sculpt a tooth and the placement of veneers may be solely cosmetic in nature. Dental bridges and dentures can be classified as prosthetics necessary for eating and a crown for tooth preservation. Perhaps, the bottom line question for us all could be, "Is it necessary for my health and the health of my teeth?" Should those perfectly fine amalgam fillings be replaced just because the newer tooth colored fillings look more natural; or, should they be replaced only if there is evidence of decay? These are the kind of questions that your dentist can help you address, based on your specific, individual, dental needs.

Dental bonding is an economical option that can help repair or enhance the appearance of teeth. The tooth colored material is similar to that used in composite (white) fillings, and can be used to re-shape or repair minor discrepancies in the teeth. Coloration of the material is chosen to match the enamel on the tooth, so the final restoration will appear natural and blend in well with the surrounding teeth.
Bonding may be done on a single tooth, or may be used in combination with other cosmetic dental treatments such as veneers or crowns when used as part of a comprehensive smile makeover. Areas that are ideal for dental bonding include:
• Minor spaces between teeth
• Chipped or broken teeth in the front of the mouth
• Areas of gum recession or enamel abrasion
• Hypersensitive areas
While most dental bonding is for aesthetic reasons, it is also the restorative treatment that is typically chosen for front teeth that have been chipped accidentally. For the bonding to be applied, the tooth is conditioned and reshaped if needed. The material is shaped and applied directly to the surface of the tooth, then cured with a light, which causes the resin to harden and bond to the enamel. Bonding is not appropriate for areas of large decay, severe fractures or areas that come into constant chewing pressure with teeth of the opposite arch.
If you have minor areas that you wish to improve the aesthetics of, dental bonding may be the answer you're looking for. Minimally invasive and affordable, dental bonding can help transform the appearance of a single tooth or even multiple teeth throughout the mouth.
Cosmetic dentistry is any dental work that is not medically necessary but that is done, rather, to improve the appearance of the teeth. Examples of cosmetic dentistry include bleaching the teeth to create a whiter smile, covering chipped or misshapen teeth with porcelain veneers, or inserting a dental bridge to fill a gap. Because these procedures are sought for aesthetic purposes, they are usually not covered by dental insurance plans; however, there are steps you can take to minimize your out-of-pocket costs.
Firstly, it is recommended that you call your insurance provider to find out exactly what is covered by your plan. Secondly, discuss with your dentist whether your cosmetic concern might also qualify as a needs-based claim. It is sometimes possible to get coverage for cosmetic dental procedures that have some functional benefit. For example, bonding chipped teeth may be desirable to improve the appearance of your teeth, but it can also be a matter of correcting the functional issue of bite in which case, your insurance company may provide partial coverage. Likewise, cosmetic repairs related to injury are usually covered by dental insurance.
If you do not have insurance, you may want to consider an alternative dental savings plan. Nowadays, a plethora of discount dental programs have made cosmetic dentistry more accessible to all. These alternative plans offer low monthly or yearly rates and flexible payment options and typically have a one-time enrollment fee. By doing a quick internet search, you can find a number of non-profit agencies and programs in your area that offer low-cost cosmetic dental plans at set fees. Alternatively, some cosmetic dentists offer in-office dental savings plans through a membership program, so it is always a good idea to call your dentist to discuss payment options.

Want To Play Soccer? Carry On Reading For Great Advice
Do you want to play soccer, but aren't sure if you would be any good? Maybe you've already tried to play but think you need a lot of skill improvement. Keep reading for great advice which can help amateurs and pros make their game better. Don't be left in the dark about soccer anymore.
When purchasing soccer cleats, you need ones that fit your foot like a glove. Make sure they are not too loose and they provide proper arch support. In addition, you want your ankles to be unobstructed. If you get the wrong cleats you run the risk of damaging your foot.
You should never try getting the ball into the goal when you're in a bad position. If you are in trouble, find someone who is open. Make a quick pass for the best results.
If a defender begins closing in on you, pass the ball immediately. Retain the ball until the defense if breathing down your neck, then pass it an unprotected player. This technique allows the player a few extra seconds before the defense gets to them.
You need to think about how you can make the other team surprised. If you typically do the same plays, other good players will soon be able to predict your moves. When a defender approaches, kick the ball over to the field's other side.
To help you increase your scoring capabilities, practice penalty kicks after an especially invigorating drill. This will help you to think of how to kick a penalty goal after you've been fouled. Learn to approach the ball from different angles and try sending it to different areas of the field with accuracy.
Soccer Ball
If you wish to dribble a soccer ball better, give practicing with tennis balls a try. The little ball will assist you in learning how to adjust your feet to maintain control. When this becomes comfortable, using a regulation soccer ball will seem easy.
Even though setting personal soccer goals for yourself is important, do not neglect the team's goals. The goals of the team need to be paramount, since the game cannot be one alone.
Always wear the correct shoes when you play soccer. Never attempt to play soccer in tennis shoes. Wearing the wrong shoes increases the chance of you hurting yourself or another player.
Now that you have read this article, you have a great knowledge of soccer. Use the tips to work on your game and improve your skills and win your games. Everyone likes to win, and no one likes to lose.

When we include a salt such as NaCl in
solution, it will dissociate into Na+ and Cl-
ions. These ions increase the conductivity of the
solution (i.e. the ability of electrons to flow).
Conductivity plays a role in corrosion since
corrosion is a redox reaction that depends on the
flow of electrons from one of the metals toward
the other. So increased ability of electrons to
flow means that corrosion will happen faster.
Furthermore, increased concentration of NaCl will
increase conductivity, but only until NaCl is
saturated in solution (i.e. the NaCl stops
dissociating into its ion pairs). I hope this

A well-known global bank was evaluating new ways of strengthening
authentication for their High-Net-Worth Individuals (HNWI) to protect their high value accounts. These accounts are under constant attack by sophisticated, targeted fraud attempts.
In evaluating behavioral biometric vendors, the bank selected BehavioSec, because of its accuracy and enterprise grade capabilities, to be deployed on premise and to integrate with its existing security and risk management systems.
Prestigious multinational bank providing advisory, investment products, and other services to high-net-worth clients around the world.
The bank's corporate and wealth management clients were frequently targeted in sophisticated, multilayered fraud attacks. The complex business needs of HNWI clients made them very difficult to accurately authenticate using legacy systems alone. Global travel, complex foreign transactions, and extensive targeted fraud attempts forced the bank to maintain a high threshold when authenticating their clients. As a result, there were a high level of False Rejections, expensive manual verification calls, and additional taxing friction on their customers.
The bank searched for a solution to their complex authentication problem and started an evaluation process to see if any vendor could help solve their issues without interfering with their strict security and privacy rules.
BehavioSec was evaluated after being referred to the bank by a neighboring bank that had recently solved their authentication problems by adopting BehavioSec's Continuous Authentication solution. BehavioSec excelled in the evaluation process by being the sole vendor capable of actually verifying human identities based on behavioral inputs alone. Additionally, BehavioSec's solution was easily integrated into the existing on-premises authentication system, future-proofing the bank without uprooting the current infrastructure, while improving the system accuracy by over 90%.
Using BehavioSec's zero-friction sensory signal the bank was also able to detect a complex socially engineered Remote Access Trojan (RAT) attack, saving the bank $3.5M in a single fraud attempt against an HNWI 4-eyes account previously thought impregnable to fraud.
BehavioSec was the only system that was rated as viable from the purchasing process and by the bank Chief Technology Officer's evaluation. BehavioSec's short development cycles, combinability with other systems, and unique behavioral sensory abilities quickly proved its value during the evaluation process and allowed the bank to comfortably future-proof its authentication platform.
BehavioSec's zero-friction signal has since become an integral part of this bank's authentication and fraud infrastructure to support digital banking at scale, drastically reducing both False Rejections and fraud losses without adding friction to its HNWI clients' user experience.

Gideon's Sons
Judges 9:22-45
The Gideon's Sons Bible scriptures located in Judges 9:22-45 explains directly from God's Word the Gideon's Sons topic.
Judges 9:22
When Abimelech had reigned three years over Israel,
Judges 9:23
Then God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem dealt treacherously with Abimelech:
Judges 9:24
That the cruelty done to the threescore and ten sons of Jerubbaal might come, and their blood be laid upon Abimelech their brother, which slew them; and upon the men of Shechem, which aided him in the killing of his brethren.
Judges 9:25
And the men of Shechem set liers in wait for him in the top of the mountains, and they robbed all that came along that way by them: and it was told Abimelech.
Judges 9:26
And Gaal the son of Ebed came with his brethren, and went over to Shechem: and the men of Shechem put their confidence in him.
Judges 9:27
And they went out into the fields, and gathered their vineyards, and trode the grapes, and made merry, and went into the house of their god, and did eat and drink, and cursed Abimelech.
Judges 9:28
And Gaal the son of Ebed said, Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? is not he the son of Jerubbaal? and Zebul his officer? serve the men of Hamor the father of Shechem: for why should we serve him?
Judges 9:29
And would to God this people were under my hand! then would I remove Abimelech. And he said to Abimelech, Increase thine army, and come out.
Judges 9:30
And when Zebul the ruler of the city heard the words of Gaal the son of Ebed, his anger was kindled.
Judges 9:31
And he sent messengers unto Abimelech privily, saying, Behold, Gaal the son of Ebed and his brethren be come to Shechem; and, behold, they fortify the city against thee.
Judges 9:32
Now therefore up by night, thou and the people that is with thee, and lie in wait in the field:
Judges 9:33
And it shall be, that in the morning, as soon as the sun is up, thou shalt rise early, and set upon the city: and, behold, when he and the people that is with him come out against thee, then mayest thou do to them as thou shalt find occasion.
Judges 9:34
And Abimelech rose up, and all the people that were with him, by night, and they laid wait against Shechem in four companies.
Judges 9:35
And Gaal the son of Ebed went out, and stood in the entering of the gate of the city: and Abimelech rose up, and the people that were with him, from lying in wait.
Judges 9:36
And when Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul, Behold, there come people down from the top of the mountains. And Zebul said unto him, Thou seest the shadow of the mountains as if they were men.
Judges 9:37
And Gaal spake again, and said, See there come people down by the middle of the land, and another company come along by the plain of Meonenim.
Judges 9:38
Then said Zebul unto him, Where is now thy mouth, wherewith thou saidst, Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him? is not this the people that thou hast despised? go out, I pray now, and fight with them.
Judges 9:39
And Gaal went out before the men of Shechem, and fought with Abimelech.
Judges 9:40
And Abimelech chased him, and he fled before him, and many were overthrown and wounded, even unto the entering of the gate.
Judges 9:41
And Abimelech dwelt at Arumah: and Zebul thrust out Gaal and his brethren, that they should not dwell in Shechem.
Judges 9:42
And it came to pass on the morrow, that the people went out into the field; and they told Abimelech.
Judges 9:43
And he took the people, and divided them into three companies, and laid wait in the field, and looked, and, behold, the people were come forth out of the city; and he rose up against them, and smote them.
Judges 9:44
And Abimelech, and the company that was with him, rushed forward, and stood in the entering of the gate of the city: and the two other companies ran upon all the people that were in the fields, and slew them.
Judges 9:45
And Abimelech fought against the city all that day; and he took the city, and slew the people that was therein, and beat down the city, and sowed it with salt.

Kansas City Estate Sale Company – Huge Opportunity To Succeed
The invention of the beneficial treasure at an estate sale may be among the most fun encounters of the life time. If you're an Overland Park collector and therefore are around the hunt to get a particular kind of merchandise, unearthing a pleasant piece is a large thrill.

VERICUT Composite Programming enhanced with new laminate manager
New laminate manager makes other new enhancements possible like batch processing, laminate-wide analysis and intelligent ply generation.
CGTech (Irvine, CA, US) has recently announced new VERICUT software features. Composite part programming with VERICUT Composite Programming (VCP) 8.1 is modernized and enhanced with the new Laminate Manager. In addition to organizing files, the Laminate Manager brings clarity and visibility to the laminate as a whole. This laminate overview has made several other new enhancements possible like batch processing, laminate-wide analysis and intelligent ply generation.
While batch processing was possible in a limited scope in previous versions of VCP, batch processing has seen significant advancement through the development of the Laminate Manager. According to CGTech, more actions are available for batch mode including: course generation, linking, creation of NC code and creation of analysis files. Analysis files include information related to course overlaps and gaps, as well as material properties relevant for finite element analysis. Users can chain together various batch actions to create a custom process that fits their specific needs.
After course generation, users can take advantage of analysis features built directly inside of VCP's Laminate Manager. These tools allow users to visualize and interrogate elements such as gaps, overlaps and course centerlines for all layers at one time.
New laminate based course generation algorithms have been added to automatically adjust course placement to avoid concentrations of defect-rich areas. By reducing the collection of local defects like gaps, these automated algorithms help the programmer take engineering requirements and turn them into a finished part.
VERICUT Composites Programming 8.1 puts many advancements in composite programing directly in the hands of NC programmers. All of the NC programs created can then be simulated in CGTech's VERICUT Composite Simulation.

Instead of posting this under my other post, I thought I would post it in a new thread so it would be easier for others to find.
If you keep getting this error in your plugin log CM15A or CM11A:
Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {001000AF-2DEF-0208-10B6-DC5BA692C858} failed due to the following error: 80040154 Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG))
Here is what you will need to do.
- 1. Copy C:\Program Files(x86)\AHSDK\bin\ahscript.dll to another folder outside of the "Windows" directory such as C:\my_dll\ahscript.dll
2. Now we need to add the COM+ Components using Component Services of Microsoft.
To start Component Services, click on start, and type "Component Services" in the Search Box.
Now click on Component Services under "Programs".
3. Once component Services opens, under "Console Root", click on "Component Services"

POD Products and Requirements
The Precise Orbital products and auxiliary data generated by the Copernicus POD (Precise Orbit Determination) Service for the Sentinel-3 mission can be divided up into three categories depending on the associated timeliness.
For Sentinel-3, the platform data files contain the platform off-nadir angle derived from the on-board computed quaternions and the nadir projection of the SRAL antenna and the satellite centre of gravity.
Details on the official POD products are available in the File Format Specification document. A brief description of the POD products is included hereafter.
The NRT orbital product (SR___ROE_AX) and Restituted platform data file (SR_2_NRPPAX) generation is associated to the availability of a new GPS L0 file, which typically have a coverage of one orbit. This product is generated by the S3 POD IPF running directly at the PDGS (see CPOD Service section for further information). They have the coverage of the latest ascending node crossing (ANX) contained in the GPS L0 that triggered its generation plus 1 orbits backwards.
The STC orbital product (AUX_MOEORB) and Preliminary platform data file (AUX_PRLPTF) are generated with a timeliness of 1.5 days and cover 26 hours, 1 hour before the start of the previous day and 1 hour after the end of it. Therefore, there is an overlap of 2 hours between consecutive files.
The NTC orbital product (AUX_POEORB) and Precise platform data file (AUX_PRCPTF) is generated with a timeliness of 25 days and covers 26 hours, from 1 hour before the start of day N-25 until 1 hour after the end of day N-25 (N being the current day). Therefore, there is an overlap of 2 hours between consecutive NTC orbit files.
Each of these products has a different timeliness and accuracy requirements, which are summarised in the following table:
The timeliness and performance results of the precise orbital products are provided in the Quality Control section.
Additionally, the GNSS L1B RINEX files for Sentinel-3 are delivered on a daily basis to the PDGS with a latency of 7 days. These files contain the decoded GPS observations (pseudorange and carrier phase) following the International GNSS Service (IGS) RINEX ICD. The Sentinel-3 GNSS L1B RINEX data products are made available to the user community through the ESA Copernicus Open Access Hub
Moreover, performing POD requires making use of the satellite attitude Quaternions files and validating the results obtained against an external reference solution. The user community can also find the Quaternions files on the ESA Copernicus Open Access Hub. In addition, different types of precise orbit files (i.e., NRT, STC and NTC) are available on the ESA Copernicus Open Access Hub. Thus, a proper validation against an external solution could be done.
If necessary, a preliminary Test Data Set (TDS) has been made available to the user community to perform a proper POD. The files for this TDS have been computed by the Copernicus POD Service for August 2018. A release note describing the TDS and where to find the inputs required to do POD is included in the TDS itself.

Vietnam and the UK should continue to implement signed agreements and propose new cooperation programmes, especially in economics, trade and investment.
Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung made the suggestion
while receiving former Prime Minister of the UK Tony Blair in Hanoi on
November 1.
The Vietnamese leader said the Vietnam-UK strategic partnership is developing and benefits both sides.
He highly valued the former UK Prime Minister's contributions to strengthening bilateral ties, and said he hopes the UK continue providing official development assistance (ODA) for Vietnam to meet Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), including poverty reduction.
He spoke highly of effective cooperation between Blair's Office and the Vietnam Ministry of Planning and Investment, particularly in foreign direct investment attraction and infrastructure development in the form of private public partnership (PPP).
The Vietnamese PM said he wishes that the former UK Prime Minister will make further contribution to fostering the relationship between Vietnam and the European Union (EU), especially the acceleration of the singing of the Vietnam–EU Free Trade Agreement (VEFTA) and early ratification of the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement (PCA).
For his part, Blair pledged to do his best to beef up EU-Vietnam relations and share experience with the country in attracting foreign investment and promoting trade, and education and training.
He also affirmed closer coordination with the Vietnam Ministry of Planning and Investment and other relevant Vietnamese agencies in selecting local enterprises and prioritising infrastructure projects to attract foreign investment.

Palmilla Sur Lot #9
Property featuresEmail AgentEmail Agent
Property descriptionThis beachfront homesite is almost 1/2 acre in surface area totalling 2,172.12 square meters (23,372 square feet). From street level, the natural terrain of the lot has a gentle slope to the beachfront. A large ocean view is available from any corner of the property. The homesites on each side of the lot have already been built, therefore, no construction will take place once this new home has been completed. On the Northern side of the lot, a wide concrete walkway has been built for access to the beach. Given the gentle slope of the terrain, site preparation for construction should be relatively inexpensive to allow the pad levels to be implemented without massive retaining walls being necessary.

Dabiri-Erewa denies accusing foreign airlines of running drug cartels
Dabiri-Erewa had during an Ad- hoc Committee meeting set up by the Senate stressed the need for Egypt, Ethiopian Airlines to ensure compulsory baggage identification as all cases recorded on the issue of drugs had been from both airlines.
The Chairman Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NIDCOM), Hon Abike Dabiri-Erewa has denied a media report titled " Egypt, Ethiopian Airlines Running Drug Cartels in Nigeria" says Dabiri-Erewa."
The denial is contained in a press release signed by her Special Assistant on media, Abdur-Rahman Balogun and made available to journalists on Thursday in Abuja.
Dabiri said that the report was incorrect and not a true reflection of what she said during the Senate committee public hearing chaired by Senator Kabiru Gaya on Wednesday.
The statement reads, "The attention of Hon. Abike Dabiri-Erewa has been drawn to some news headlines accusing some foreign airlines of running drugs cartels in the country.
"The headline which reads "Egypt, Ethiopian Airlines Running Drug Cartels in Nigeria," says Dabiri-Erewa, is a figment of the Reporter's imagination.
"Dabiri-Erewa had during the hearing stressed the need for those two airlines to ensure compulsory baggage identification as all cases recorded on the issue of drugs had been from both airlines.
"Luckily enough, the representative of Ethiopian Air, who was at the public hearing, promised that baggage identification would be strengthened."
Dabiri noted that the Senate public hearing was geared towards probing the circumstances surrounding the framing up and eventual arrest of Zainab Aliyu in Saudi Arabia over allegation of carrying tramadol drug in her baggage.
She urged members of the public to discountenance the publication, adding that it does represent what transpired at the hearing.

AbstractWe investigate two methods to build a polynomial approximation of a model output depending on some parameters. The two approaches are based on pseudo-spectral projection (PSP) methods on adaptively constructed sparse grids, and aim at providing a finer control of the resolution along two distinct subsets of model parameters. The control of the error along different subsets of parameters may be needed for instance in the case of a model depending on uncertain parameters and deterministic design variables. We first consider a nested approach where an independent adaptive sparse grid PSP is performed along the first set of directions only, and at each point a sparse grid is constructed adaptively in the second set of directions. We then consider the application of aPSP in the space of all parameters, and introduce directional refinement criteria to provide a tighter control of the projection error along individual dimensions. Specifically, we use a Sobol decomposition of the projection surpluses to tune the sparse grid adaptation. The behavior and performance of the two approaches are compared for a simple two-dimensional test problem and for a shock-tube ignition model involving 22 uncertain parameters and 3 design parameters. The numerical experiments indicate that whereas both methods provide effective means for tuning the quality of the representation along distinct subsets of parameters, PSP in the global parameter space generally requires fewer model evaluations than the nested approach to achieve similar projection error. In addition, the global approach is better suited for generalization to more than two subsets of directions.

While the surety industry is a small one, compared to other segments of the property-casualty insurance world, it produces over 5 billion dollars of revenue.
Construction related surety business has been hit hard in the past three years, given the state of our nation's economy. But the need for non-construction bonds is as strong as ever. Many companies have been increasing staff on that side of the business. As our nation's economy begins to rebound, and as federal and state infrastructure projects become top priorities, the surety industry will be looking for more underwriters. Already in the past year we are seeing new companies come into the surety marketplace, confident that the economy will return to health, and that construction will be robust once again. The need for smart surety underwriters and managers will be acute. Surety Search Partners stands ready to help.
When it comes to recruiting surety professionals, some insurance companies depend on advertising or they contract with large recruiting firms where surety searches are only a sideline. Other companies will turn to surety recruiters who understand the industry and who can move quickly to find candidates who are qualified for the positions. That is the issue: connecting with candidates who are qualified. And that's where we come in.
Through our interviews, Surety Search Partners seeks to understand the candidate's experience, but also the style, the aptitude, the attitude and the temperament. These are the aspects of qualification that enable us to make a better match for the company's culture and personnel requirements.

Born near Matamoros, Mexico, on June 22, 1875, Gregorio Cortez moved with his family to Manor, Texas, when he was two years old. His family stayed in the area and Cortez learned to be a farmer and ranch hand. His reputation as a bandit began in the summer of 1901 when he killed two sheriffs and eluded the Texas Rangers for almost two weeks. Many Tejanos considered him to be a victim of racism and of an inept interpreter; many local Anglos thought Cortez was a violent, bloodthirsty criminal.Gregorio's troubles began June 12 when the sheriffs in the area were hunting for a horse thief described only as a "medium-sized Mexican." Cortez, along with hundreds of others, fit the ever-so-vague description. What put him in the sights of Sheriff W.T. "Brack" Morris was that he had made a horse trade with an acquaintance, and the sheriff suspected the horse he had traded was the stolen livestock. Morris, along with two deputies (Boone Choate, who acted as interpreter, and John Trimmell) questioned Gregorio at his home in front of several family members. Gregorio said they had no reason to arrest him, but Choate reportedly interpreted the comment as "no white man can arrest me." The comment resulted in the sheriff's firing his weapon and hitting Gregorio's brother Romaldo in the shoulder. Gregorio shot back, killing the sheriff. Although Gregorio escaped, his brother, wife, children, and mother were jailed. Romaldo later died in jail from the gunshot wound he received.
Gregorio sought refuge with friends near Belmont, but a posse led by another sheriff tracked him down and another gunfight erupted. When all was said and done, the sheriff and the landowner were dead and Gregorio was on the run again. He managed to evade the Texas Rangers, who pursued him relentlessly for several more days, but a price was on his head. Eventually, an acquaintance gave away his whereabouts and Gregorio was arrested. While serving a fifty-year sentence, Gregorio received a conditional pardon and was released in 1913. He headed south to fight in the Mexican Revolution and died of pneumonia in 1916.

Want to get the nautral bronzed summer look? Getting a natural look has never been sexier and it's really quite simple!
ModelCo shows us how to get the gorgeous look with this easy-to-follow guide.
1. Prime your skin with ModelCo's Face Base Skin Primer all over the face and blend to the neck. Leave it to sink into the skin then using a foundation brush, apply a nice cover of ModelCo FluidSplash 3-in-1 foundation. Made up of 50% water, FluidSplash gives a sheer finish so ensure you use enough to even out the skin tone.
2. Once you've applied the foundation, add a little concealer, conveniently hidden in the cap of FluidSplash, to cover any pigmentation or redness.
3. Apply a touch of Shimmer Whip under the eyebrow to highlight the eyes and then also apply a small amount to the cheek bones to highlight.
4. For the eyes, use ModelCo Gel Eyeliner to create a thin line, keeping as close to the lash line as possible, which adds depth to the eyes. Doing one eye at a time, apply one layer of the Extension Mascara then while it's wet apply a layer of the fibres. Wait 10 seconds and then apply another coat of Extension Mascara, this process fixes real fibres to your natural eyelashes for truly thicker and longer lashes. Do the same on the other eye.
5. Sweep the cheeks with ModelCo Glow Summer Bronzer under the cheek bones to create definition. Also place the bronzer on the spots that hit the sun – tip of the nose, forehead and chin to create a true summer glow.
6. Finish off with Shine Ultra Lipgloss in Strip Tease on the lips for that gorgeous natural sheen!
If you want to go for a different look why not get dewy summer skin? Or you can also check back to our style section for more beauty inspiration.

Exmouthjournal.co.uk - Full Story
April 4 2013
Dace Sainsbury who hails from Lyme Regis travelled recently to the Middle East with her horse Lottie for the United Arab Emirates Cup – this is her story.
In November 2012 myself and my horse Ballota were invited to ride in the most prestigious endurance ride in the world, HH The President of the United Arab Emirates Cup that was held in Abu Dhabi. This invite included all costs to and from Abu Dhabi and all accommodation for both horse rider and crew. The invite came off the back of doing so well in Belgium in the European Championships. It was a moment to remember opening the letter with the invite! My beautiful little mare is always surprising me with what her and I could do and now we were going to both go on an aeroplane and fly to the desert!
The travelling to Abu Dhabi went very smoothly, an unexpected surprise I must say. We were taken to a handsome hotel near Maastricht where we stayed for one night before travelling to Dusseldorf for our own flight. The transport stables were okay, could have done with bigger boxes but the grooms and the transporters were very friendly and were very obliging when I repeated instructions for the care of Lottie both before the flight and in travel. I think by the end of my lecture on 'How and when to feed a horse a carrot' they referred to me in Dutch as the crazy English girl. Nevertheless they must have done a good job as Lottie arrived in Abu Dhabi very settled, stabled next to a Swedish horse.
So, we arrived at 6.30am on the morning of the 12th and were picked up and taken to the Eastern Mangroves hotel. First word that springs to mind. Wow! The hotel looked like an Arabic postcard, not only was it huge but it had a real traditional Arabic feel, Frankincense burning, Arabic coffee freely available and the most enormous dish of dates piled so precariously that I was pretty dubious about taking one at risk of sending the whole lot flying. That was just the lobby. The hotel rooms were absolutely gargantuan, with beds that could fit about ten of James in!
Lottie wasn't due to arrive until 7pm that evening. The hours in-between napping and collecting Lottie were jam packed with collecting hire cars, driving to Dubai to visit my family and friends and eating at the hotel restaurant which did not disappoint all week! We had a call at about 4pm to tell us that the horses now wouldn't be arriving until closer to midnight so we had a long wait at the quarantine stables!...

JOHN DeMONT: Deep Panuke platform rekindles memories of petroleum riches
In fairness I have been spending a bit of time elsewhere the past few months.
When someone recently pointed out that the last vestige of our offshore petroleum industry was moored at the IEL dock in Woodside, I felt not the least bit sheepish about driving down to the harbour and having a look across the water to see what he was talking about.
According to Peter Ziobrowski, the blogger and photographer who produces the Halifax Shipping News feature in these pages, the production facility from the Deep Panuke gas field, 250 km southeast of Halifax, was supposed to have made for the port of Mulgrave, but the anchors needed to fix it to the ocean floor there couldn't be found.
Instead, Ovintiv Inc., the Denver-based outfit that now owns EnCana Corp., the project's original operator, took the facility to Dartmouth, where it now stands.
For how long is anybody's guess.
Ovintiv's public relations spokesperson did not return my call Tuesday.
But a little checking around showed that the project was plagued with delays from the start, including fires aboard the drilling rig and water leaking into its gas reserves.
On his blog, Ziobrowski put together the latest chapter in the story: that the water-laden gas at Deep Panuke was expensive to produce, even though production for the duration of the field's short life occurred solely in the winter months when gas prices were high.
The owners tried to sell the field, which came into production in 2013, then, when no buyer could be found, announced that they were shutting it down, which happened in 2018.
Since late July, the production platform, built specifically for the project, has been sitting at the IEL dock, while the owners searched for somewhere else to use it.
From the Halifax side of the harbour, glimpsed through the bars of a fence alongside the waterfront Farmer's Market, the facility looked forlorn Tuesday, although that could have just been me imposing a narrative.
I started my career at this newspaper covering this province's offshore energy industry, which seemed to begin with Gerald Regan, the premier of the day, holding up a vial of petroleum under a Chronicle Herald headline that screamed "It's oil."
Those were heady enough days that my boss Richard Russell and I headed down to Abilene, Texas for an oil patch orientation course at Texas A&M University so that someone would have an inkling of this new industry that was going to bring us all prosperity.
On the way back, I stopped off in New Orleans (yes, the newspaper business was different in those days.) There, in a scene that I shall never forget, John Buchanan, our avuncular premier, entered the world's biggest energy show, clapping away to the skirl of bag-pipes as hundreds, perhaps thousands, of oilmen sat, wondering just what had happened to their industry.
By that point, Nova Scotia's long and profitable relationship with the petroleum patch was already underway.
When ExxonMobil Canada Ltd.'s Sable Project shut off the valves at the end of 2018, after nearly 20 years in production, the provincial government had reaped $1.9 billion in royalties, with another $2.8 billion spent in the province by the project's proponents.
And that doesn't even include the monetary impact from the Cohasset-Panuke Project, Canada's first offshore oil project, which ran from 1992-1999, or Deep Panuke.
Now, with the final remnants of that project anchored, waiting for a purpose, in the waters of Halifax Harbour, our days of petroleum riches seem more a pleasant memory than anything else.
The two most recent offshore exploration drilling programs came up dry.
In May, the federal and provincial governments decided to set aside their annual call for bids to explore parcels in Nova Scotia's offshore. Not a single oil company answered the call for bids in 2019.
But, hey, it is the oil business. Things can and do change. Dreams vanish, then, like magic, reappear.

Emma Watson didn't trust her fellow classmates at first
HollywoodNews.com: When Emma Watson decided to attend Brown University, it was definitely a different situation since she was already a huge movie star thanks the the 'Harry Potter' series.
Due to the fame she had already experience, Watson needed some time to learn to trust her classmates, states Digital Spy. She says it took her about a year to trust others, but now it is getting a bit easier.
"Sometimes you just have to take a risk because otherwise you're not going to live at all," Watson says about just going for it and letting other people into her life.
Do you think it'd be hard to be in Emma Watson's position?

Clarity Coming in the Caribbean
Published on September 26th, 2017
Here are three updates following the damage assessment from recent hurricanes in the Caribbean.
Organizers of the St. Thomas International Regatta (STIR) have officially announced the 2018 event, set for March 23 to 25 in St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands, will take place as scheduled despite damage to the island from Hurricanes Irma and Maria.
Never in the 45-year history of STIR has a fall storm, even a major one, interrupted the running of the 'Crown Jewel of Caribbean Yacht Racing', and it will not in 2018. The host St. Thomas Yacht Club suffered some damage and the fleet took more than a few dents, but the venue for fantastic round the island races is still very much in place. Details.
Considered a high point of the tourist season on the island of Saint-Barthélemy, Les Voiles de St. Barth will take place as planned over April 8-14, 2018.
When the Caribbean Islands were ravaged by one of the deadliest hurricanes of the century, Saint-Barthélemy took a hard hit from Irma but is already well on the road to recovery, revealing its courage and energy to rise up, much like the organizers of Les Voiles de St. Barth who have decided to maintain the regatta in 2018. Details.
After previously announcing the annual Caribbean Sailing Association (CSA) Conference would proceed as planned on October 13 to 15, the CSA now reveals the gathering will be postponed to a date to be determined. The initial decision came after Hurricane Irma, but the delay is now needed with the increased number of islands and people affected by Hurricane Maria. Details.

The Airlock Authentication Service is our own implementation of an authentication service to be used with Airlock. This article lists the features of Version 2.x.
The Airlock Authentication Service is replaced by Airlock Login. The Airlock Authentication Service is not going to be continued anymore but will be supported until September 2016.
Authentication methods
User directories
Identity and role mapping
Airlock supports any authentication method. It controls access to all protected applications, but the actual authentication is delegated to an authentication service.
Airlock = Policy Enforcement Point (PEP)
Authentication Service = Policy Decision Point (PDP)The Airlock Authentication Service supports the following authentication methods as building blocks:
These authentication methods can be combined. The table below shows how the authentication method depends on user directories.
After a user is authenticated, you often want to control which applications (or even parts of an applicaiton) he can access. With the Airlock Authentication Service, you have unlimited ways of restricting access to a web application - basically any information stored in a user directory can be used as a decision base.
For example, you could restrict access to
Any combination of these restrictions can be enforced globally (SSO domain) or per application.
The Airlock Authentication Service can connect to one or more servers to check user credentials and permissions.
The following table lists the currently supported user directories and the corresponding features. While reading it, keep in mind that you can
|Directory or authentication server
|Authentication features
|Authorization features
Text File
e.g. a properties file
|Radius Server
|A Radius server cannot make authorization decisions. But Radius authentication can be combined with authorization based on any information including other user directories.
|RSA SecurID (ACE)
|An RSA server cannot make authorization decisions. But RSA authentication can be combined with authorization based on any information including other user directories.
|An ELCARD server cannot make authorization decisions. But ELCARD authentication can be combined with authorization based on any information including other user directories.
|Implement any authentication method or authorization restriction by writing a plug-in and deploy your code together with the Airlock Authentication Service. The plug-in written in Java must implement the API described in the Airlock Authentication Service SDK (contained in the download package).
Out of every bit of information regarding an authenticated user, the Authentication Service can make decisions for rules, timeouts, audit tokens, redirects and so on. The information about the user is typically taken outside the user directory. But it has not even to be same user directory as the one which authenticated the user. Decisions could be based for example on a Web Service, another database etc.
The Airlock Authentication Service is sold as an optional module for Airlock.
For sales inquiries, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com.
The Airlock Authentication Service may be deployed either
The Airlock Authentication Service is versioned and released independently from Airlock.
The Airlock Authentication Service manual is available here. Premium Partners may download the latest release of the Airlock Authentication Service here.

Patel takes charge at India's central bank with eye on inflation
[MUMBAI] Urjit Patel took over from Raghuram Rajan at the helm of the Reserve Bank of India, where he will oversee the transition to an interest-rate setting panel guided by an inflation target.
Mr Patel assumed charge on Sept 4, the monetary authority said in a statement on Monday.
As Mr Rajan's deputy for three years until he became the 24th governor, Mr Patel drew prominence for leading a review of the RBI's mission that led to an overhaul of the 81-year-old institution.
He will now need to navigate between the government's likely expectations of an interest-rate cut in the face of slower economic growth and key state elections, and inflation that has breached the central bank's target.
He could also face pressure to ease up on a US$120 billion bad-debt clean up, which has eroded bank profits and slashed bonuses.

Mr Patel's first test will come Oct 4 - a scheduled monetary policy review - where investors will gauge if governorship reduces his traditional reticence.
Now that Mr Patel, 52, has taken up the top job, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's administration will need to fill his previous post of deputy governor in charge of monetary policy and communication, while also announcing its representatives on the proposed monetary policy committee.

Breen reflects on a breakout season
By Garrick Knight
As Syd Breen saw off one of his stable stars this morning, he couldn't help but reflect on the roller-coaster ride that has been this season.
On the track, the Gore trainer has been unstoppable, recording a career-best 16 wins this season, more than double his previous high of seven.
But off the track, he was brought back to earth with a thud mid-season when struck down by a serious health issue.
Santanna's Rocket has been a key part of his small stable this season, winning four times and placing a further five for over $32,000 in stakes.
But he's off to Sydney to continue racing for his group of owners.
"He headed off at half-past six this morning, going over to Menangle on a fifty-fifty deal with Robbie Morris and KerryAnn Turner.
"We had him on the market for a while but, typical agents, they kept trying to cut us back on price.
"In the end we decided to send him over ourselves.
"Ross Wilson is a good mate of mine and he's had a few horses with them over there so that's where the link came from."
Breen isn't one to get soppy and emotional but he admits he will miss the horse he has been handling since a yearling, four years ago.
"He's had 39 starts for six wins and 23 times in the first four; you don't get many like that these days."
With stable star Sagwitch and Mucho Macho Man having a spell, Lorretta Franco retired and in foal to Betterthancheddar, and Coolhand Easton back with his owners, Breen is enjoying a bit of downtime right now, something his doctor no doubt approves of.
"I had a heart attack in January, the day after Sagwitch won at the Northern Southland meeting.
Breen was rushed by helicopter to Dunedin Hospital and after a quick procedure was on the road to recovery.
"I'm just so thankful for the excellent treatment I got; a lot of people bag Dunedin Hospital but I can't speak highly enough of the staff there."
It was a reminder to take things easy and he says his days are nowhere near as long as they used to be.
"By five o'clock I'm pretty tired now; I can barely keep my eyes open."
Hopefully his body has bounced back by the spring time because he has some lofty ambitions for Sagwitch that include a crack at the Inter Dominions in Auckland come December.
"I was going to send him up to Auckland now but he came to the end of it a wee bit, and with Santanna's Rocket going I thought it would be best to turn him out.
"They are best mates and have been since they were broken in together so I thought he might just get the sulks now that the other horse has gone.
"He's a real thinker that horse so the plan is for him to buddy up with a new mate in the paddock and then I'll bring him back in to work.
"We'll try and be ready for the Hannon Memorial or the Methven Cup and then the owners are really keen to go to Kaikoura.
"Long term we're hoping to go to Auckland for the Inters to have a crack up there."
Sagwitch ended up winning the Southland Country Cups championship this season, amongst his three circuit wins the Wyndham Cup in March,
"I actually had two Country Cups winners in my stable this season because we sold The Night Hawk to Scott Dickson in January and he won the northern series, too.
"We are getting presented with a nice dress rug for Sagwitch this Saturday, which is a lovely little bonus to top off the season."
Breen trained his first winner in 1992 and pottered around with a few horses until 1998 when a broken engagement saw him walk away from the industry for a decade.
"I ended up at the freezing works doing four 12-hour days a week, which just left me no time to do the horses the way I wanted to.
"Eventually I started helping out Billy Heads when he was at Waimumu and after a while I took a share in a few horses."
That whet his appetite and eventually Breen took his licence out again in 2014.
On his brilliant season, Breen attributes it to a number of things – good support, luck, and the maturity of Santanna's Rocket and Sagwitch.
"Steve McRae sending down Loretta Franco probably started it all off for me.
"She did an amazing job for us and that gave me some confidence in my training, and in others to send me horses.
"Confidence is a great thing is this game.
"When you're going good, you're not scared to back yourself and try something different.
"As an example, I was having a clean up the other day and I found six overchecks, none which had even been used.
"The speed they're going these days, the less restricted you've got them, the better they seem to race.
"Mine seem a lot happier without them on.
"Take Sagwitch. He's had a few breathing issues and I tried everything with him, even a Cornell Collar.
"As soon as I took his overcheck off, he won the Wyndham Cup.
"And as well as that, I got the right horses at the right times."
Breen will line up Phil's Last Chance at Ascot Park on Saturday and his other race horse at present is the maiden, American Mac.
"The old guy that owns American Mac lives in Gore so (former trainer) Alan Beck asked me if I could train him for him.
"And the same with Phil's Last Chance. Brad Williamson sent her over because she's owned by a few locals too."
