The count of providers in our system increases each quarter of the year to provide an outlet for motorists to discover low cost coverage plans
Jacksonville, FL (PRWEB) February 12, 2015
The annual expenses that are related the use of a preowned vehicle can include paying higher insurance costs for some vehicle types. The Quotes Pros company is now helping consumers to find cheap insurance rates to help cover used vehicles through its revised database at http://quotespros.com/auto-insurance.html.

"The count of providers in our system increases each quarter of the year to provide an outlet for motorists to discover low cost coverage plans," said one QuotesPros.com rep.
A new search option exists in 2015 for adults who will use the open database to seek out various providers of used vehicle coverage plans in the U.S. Secondary coverage like collision and comprehensive protection is available to quote and to add to plans that are promoted by insurers in the database.
"We've made a continuous effort to expand on types of insurance plans that are viewable and quotable through various agencies in North America this year," said the rep.
The Quotes Pros company has improved the listed number of national agencies that offer life insurance plans for affordable prices this year. Adults who do not have life coverage as part of a liability plan can now find a better coverage option by searching at http://quotespros.com/life-insurance.html.

It didn't work: there was no Hebrew whatsoever. I also tried testfont.tex; the only thing that appeared in the table as an ayin and the aleph-lamed combination. Maybe I wasn't clear enough in describing my problem. In short, the PK versions of Joel Hoffman's fonts (which I've been using since at least 1997), work just fine. But every time I update TeXLive, I need to disable arabtex.map, which uses hclassic-4.pfb. Although this isn't a major pain, I'd like to use the most up-to-date version. Is there something bestides hletter1.tex that I should be using? Thanks.

Jack Keller
Created by J. D. Rhoades
JACK KELLER's pretty much a mess, a shell-shocked Desert Storm vet who has some very real problems dealing with people -- unless he's got a gun jammed in their ear and is slapping the cuffs on them. About the only thing that keeps him going is his job as a bounty hunter for H&H, a North Carolina bail bonds company, and Angela, his boss, who's not exactly a glowing picture of mental health either.
And yet, somehow, when Jack isn't kicking down doors in pursuit of criminals whose propensity for violence is frequently only matched by their stupidity, he and Angela manage to find a little common ground -- and it's that deftly handled growing relationship between these two wounded people which raises J.D. Rhoades over-boiled, action-packed debut, The Devil's Right Hand (2005) and the subsequent series a notch or two up from the average bounty hunter series.

At the beginning of the 13th century, Loket, a royal castle was built on a landmark promontory within the Ohře River bend. It used to be called the "Key to the Czech Kingdom". Soon after, a small town, first mentioned in 1288, arose below the castle. In the early 15th century the royal town was fortified and turned into an important focal point of the Czech Crown. In the course of the 19th century, the town became famous for its local porcelain factory. However, industrial production was located in the surrounding towns. The town regained its former fame in the time of beginning tourism bloom, when the local area of great natural beauty and numerous historical monuments became increasingly popular with holidaymakers and romantics.
How to get there
The historic town of Loket (Elbow, Elbogen in German) is located about 14 kilometres from the centre of Karlovy Vary. Start your trip in the Karlovy Vary district of Doubí. To get there, use bus No. 6 and then follow the blue tourist route. A pleasant walk through the romantic valley of the Ohře River past the Svatoš Rocks is 9.5 kilometres long and will take you about two and a half hours. If you decide to ride a bike, the cycling path that is part of the backbone cycling route No. 204 will lead you through the valley as well. To get to Loket from Karlovy Vary, take an intercity bus from Dolní nádraží (Lower Bus Station) or a train leaving from Horní nádraží (Upper Railway Station), changing in the Chodov station. If you are travelling to Loket by car, use the R6 motorway in the direction of Cheb. At the Loučky exit, turn onto the 209 district road that will take you directly to the town.

Straighten your child's teeth Naturally WIth MYOBRACE
With Myobrace you won't have to wait until your child is a teenager to fix their smile.
We can start Treatment as early as 3 years old!
Eliminate the need for braces
Invented in Australia over 20 years ago, Myobrace is now becoming a popular alternative to braces and Invisalign that helps correct growth and orthodontic problems worldwide. Finally, studies have found that genetics does not play as significant a role in facial growth and development as previously thought. Above all, Poor oral habits such as mouth breathing and improper swallowing are the underlying causes of why teeth are misaligned. That's why here at Dental Now Panorama, we want to help straighten your children's teeth without the need for Braces or Invisalign with Myobrace in Calgary!
For Ages 3-15
Children are getting their permanent teeth as early as the age of 5 years old!. As a result, at this stage the teeth can become crowded and the jaws misaligned. Later on, at 9-12 years of age children are getting the remainder of their permanent teeth. As a result, crowding and poor jaw alignment can become much more severe as the adult face develops and the remaining permanent teeth come in.
Why is Myobrace Necessary?
Causes of Crooked teeth
One of the biggest causes of crooked teeth is bad oral habits.
As a result, mouth breathing, incorrect lip and tongue function (known as poor myofunctional habits) are the primary causes of poor jaw development and tooth alignment. Research shows that these problems continue through to the permanent dentition which would generally require complex orthodontic treatment later on in your child's life. These habits can be corrected easily in the growing years than through braces or Invisalign later on in your child's life. Once the causes are corrected natural growth, and dental alignment can take place.
Straighten your children's teeth without braces!
WhAT IS MYOBRACE?
How Myobrace actually works
Patients are asked to wear a series of removable Myobrace appliances for a minimum of 1 hour during the day and overnight while sleeping. As a result, the purpose of this treatment is to change our patient's oral habits concerning tongue and lip posture and swallowing patterns. Furthermore, the daily use of the Myobrace appliance results in straighter teeth and improved function, leading to the improved facial development and a healthier smile. In conclusion, although Myobrace is best directed to children and teens, adults still receive benefits from the treatment.
Will Myobrace be right for my child?
The Myobrace system is almost like a training program. Like study or sport, daily commitment and persistence are required to obtain results It also depends on the patient's basic biology for change – therefore sometimes the results are rapid, and at other times it may take more perseverance. Old habits die hard, so the sooner the training program is implemented, the better the growth benefits and the more permanent the result!
How does myobrace compare to braces or invisalign?
Complete x-rays and photos
For Children Aged 5 to 15
No Retainer Necessary
Our Dentists
Stop worrying about your teeth!
Frequently Asked Questions
What can Myobrace do?
The goal of Myobrace is to naturally develop of the jaws and teeth. Beyond just straighter teeth, Myobrace can offer:
- Alignment of the teeth and jaws
- Minimal or no use of braces
- No need for extraction of healthy teeth
- Reduced need for fixed retainers
- Improve facial development
- Improve overall oral health
How is it different than Braces?
Your child doesn't have to wear any wires on their teeth! Unlike with Braces, Myobrace is a comfortable flexible retainer that they can take off when it matters the most. With Myobrace, you won't have to worry about your children not brushing because of the difficulty!
How is it different than Invisalign?
Myobrace starts earlier and focuses on developing the jaw instead of just straightening straightening your teeth. This will allow your child's jaw to properly develop.
Should I wait for all adult teeth to come in?
The Canadian Dental Association recommends every child have an orthodontic assessment no later than age 7. Waiting on treatment can lead to a less than ideal result. Certain orthodontic problems are best treated when children have a combination of adult and baby teeth.
Do you provide financing options?
Yes! We offer flexible financing options such as 0% financing and extended payment plans. We will work with you to create the perfect payment plan.
What is included in the free consultation?
In an orthodontic consultation, you will get an opportunity to tour the office, meet the doctor and the team. The doctor will look at your mouth and assess the complexity of your treatment and review what treatment options are available to you. Together, we will discuss any concerns you may have with your orthodontic treatment.

This fits so well - that's what she said!
That's what she said - These four simple words that can turn any innocently suggestive comment into a hilarious joke.
Being one of the best bad joke in recent times, it forced almost any sentence into unintentional inappropriate meanings, even when you were just "trying to get in" to the crowded train, or "didn't think it would take so long" to finish your work.
This design pays tribute to the most versatile joke in the universe, printed to perfection on a Black 100% cotton Redwolf tee!
So use them well because with great power comes great responsibility.
For those chosen few who have been initiated into the Wolfpack - special assignments include binge watching TV Shows and back-to-back movie marathons. Those who make it through right to the very end land up with a spark of inspiration which makes it's way onto our tees. These are their designs.

Spelling Year 3: calculate revise adverb factory cacao straight brain faint waist afraid
Spelling Year 4: calculate revise adverb factory cacao impossible immature immortal imperfect impolite
Dear Parents and Children,
I am pleased to say that the learning is progressing steadily in the Year 3-4 Johannesburg class, another full week of learning is under our belt.
In English this week we learned about "ai" words and that the "im" prefix also means not, similarly to the "in" prefix. completed our class reader "The Hodgeheg' and learned that Max finally did find a safe way to cross the street to get to the park. The students worked well in groups creating summaries of the final chapters. We also revised the rules for using inverted commas for direct speech. The students will start planning and writing their own adventure story next week, linking with our ICT unit for an exciting project.
In Math we revised using the grid method for multiplication calculations and learned strategies to calculate the 6 times table and the 8 times table by doubling the 3 and 4 times table respectively. We also learned that you can calculate the 4 times table by doubling and doubling again – a neat mathematical trick.
In IPC we continued to learn about chocolate, specifically how it gets from seed to wrapped up in the shop when we buy it. Next week we will be exploring where cacao trees grow and why and looking at the history of chocolate. ICT was very exciting this week as the students learned how to create and insert hyperlinks in their Google slides. We will use this skill in the coming weeks as they create their own "Choose Your Own Adventure" games. In P.E. the students worked on throwing for accuracy in their target games unit. We had fun throwing bean bags and Frisbees, trying to get them into a hoop and understanding the difference of throwing each of these.
Today we went with the whole school to the HHI Arts Center to view the amazing Monet exhibition. The students have been learning about this in art class and it was a fantastic experience to see the artworks come to life in glorious animation. The students thoroughly enjoyed it.
The weather is becoming colder and we have developed an HFS winter uniform in the form of a navy blue long-sleeve zip-up hooded jersey. The uniforms are mandatory for all students and today you may notice that the winter uniform order sheets home with your child. They are to be returned completed and with the 20 000 Won fee by no later than Friday 4 October. The uniform should be delivered by 18 October. Thank you for your understanding in this regard.
That is all for this week. Do have a wonderful weekend.
Mr. Kearney

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of freezing on the concentration of oxytetracycline (OTC) residues in beef samples stored at -20 °C (core beef temperature -12 °C and below) for 60 and 120 days. A total of 60 fresh beef samples were randomly obtained from cattle slaughterhouses and butcher shops in district in Dodoma region in Tanzania. The OTC residues were determined using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with a diode array detector (DAD). Results showed that the mean concentration of OTC residues in 16 positive samples before freezing was 191.71 ± 90.21 ng/g. The mean concentration of OTC after freezing at -20 °C for 60 and 120 days were 166.40 ± 86.49 ng/g and 133.50 ± 83.24 ng/g respectively. These results revealed a significant (p<0.05) reduction of OTC residues of 30% after 60 days and 65% after 120 days of freezing at -20 °C. The percentage reduction of OTC residues was not dependent on the initial concentration or the freezing process but was rather due to unknown time dependent individual beef sample factors. It is concluded that. despite OTC levels in beef decreasing due to non-freezing factors. any residues significantly above Maximum Residues Level (MRL) may not be expected to reduce to acceptable levels as a result of freezing. Tanzania Veterinary Association Proceedings 2017, Vol. 35 2017-12-05T00:00:00Z Antimicrobial activity of indigenous plants used by pastoral communities for milk preservation in Kilosa District, Tanzania http://www.suaire.suanet.ac.tz:8080/xmlui/handle/123456789/2137 Antimicrobial activity of indigenous plants used by pastoral communities for milk preservation in Kilosa District, Tanzania Kawanga, C. N. Milk is an important part of the diet among pastoral communities in Kilosa district, Tanzania. Its production and consumption derives much food security and economic benefits to the rural people in the district. However, Milk has a complex biochemical composition and its high-water activity and nutritional value serves as an excellent medium for growth and multiplication of many kinds of microorganisms. This shortens the shelf-life of milk. In the framework of research to improve the shelf-life and safety of milk, this study was conducted to explore the indigenous knowledge on milk preservation and antimicrobial activity of the commonly used plants in milk preservation. A survey was conducted on the use of herbs in milk in Parakuyo and Mbwade villages in the district, after which leaves, stems and roots of two plant species of Dalbergia melanoxylon and Combretum imberbe were collected for laboratory analysis. Biological activity using minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) serial dilution assay against six milk spoilage bacteria and titratable acidity were determined. The common methods for preservation of milk were boiling, fumigation of milk containers using dried stems and roots of selected plant species and fermentation. Ethanol extracts of the plant parts showed antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi, Pseudomonas aeriginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus agalactiae and Proteus spp. Stem extract of D. melanoxylon showed highest activity with an MIC of 3.125 mg/ml. The difference in biological activity among the extracts was not statistically significant. Furthermore, there was no statistical difference in lactic acid production between milk samples treated with extracts and non-treated fresh milk samples. The results of this study give credence to the traditional use of Dalbergia melanoxylon and Combretum imberbe and expand our knowledge on the biological activity of their extracts as potential natural preservatives. MSc. Dissertation 2017-01-01T00:00:00Z Comparative physiological, biochemical and behavioral responses to heat stress and low dietary energy in selected Tanzanian local chicken ecotypes http://www.suaire.suanet.ac.tz:8080/xmlui/handle/123456789/2062 Comparative physiological, biochemical and behavioral responses to heat stress and low dietary energy in selected Tanzanian local chicken ecotypes Khondowe, P. As an important source of income and protein, local chickens are widely reared by a majority of rural and peri-urban households in many developing countries including Tanzania.However, these birds are seasonally exposed to challenging environments that includehigh temperatures and decreased scavengeable food materials.It was hypothesized that local chickens bred from different regions of Tanzania might have selected ecotypes with stronger tolerance to high temperatures andsuboptimal nutrition.Two groups of studies were conducted to compare effects of heat stressand low dietary energy in three Tanzanian chicken ecotypes: Kuchi (KU), Ching"wekwe (CH) and Morogoro medium (MM). In the first study conducted at prevailing cyclic ambient temperatures, 4 weeks old hens wereeither fed a control diet containing 2864 Kcal/kgMEor diets containing 40 or 55% less energy than the control over a period of 7 weeks. Results showed ecotypespecific responses through differences in growth performance, feed conversion ratios (FCRs),behavioural responses, blood indices,and liver hsp70 and iNOS gene expressions.MM showed better performance at 55% restriction level whereas Kuchi exhibited better performance at 40% restriction and control energy levels. In the second study, the first batch of chickens was exposed to a constant temperature of 32±1°C for 7 days and thereafter raised and maintained at 37±1°C (8hrs per day) for 10 days, whereas the second batch was subjected to similar conditions but fed 55% less dietary energy than the control. Results showed ecotype-based differences in responses to both heat stress and a combination of heat stress with low dietary energy. MM had greater tolerance to heat stress and its combination with low dietary energy than KU and CH but similar to CH when only heat stress was applied, with respect to liver hsp70 gene expression and serum corticosterone.Collectively, the results show that growth performance and responses to heat stress and low dietary energy in the three local chicken ecotypes are different andhave provided starting points for future research to devise programs that include physiological, biochemical and behavioral traits that would enhance selection for heat and low dietary energy tolerance among the local chicken stocks. PhD Thesis 2018-01-01T00:00:00Z Impact of climate variability and change on rain-fed farming system in selected semi-arid areas of Tanzania http://www.suaire.suanet.ac.tz:8080/xmlui/handle/123456789/1710 Impact of climate variability and change on rain-fed farming system in selected semi-arid areas of Tanzania Samwel, J. K. Climate variability and change pose serious challenges to smallholder farmers and agro-pastoralists. Nonetheless, their trends and impacts on rain-fed farming system (RFFS) in semi-arid areas of Tanzania have not sufficiently been explored. This study was conducted in Iramba and Meatu districts to contribute to this knowledge gap. The study specifically (i) assessed meteorological data trends of rainfall and temperature between 1994 and 2011; (ii) determined farmers' perception of climate variability and change in relation to meteorological data trends; (iii) determined changes in RFFS in response to climate variability and change; and (iv) examined changes in gender relations in response to climate variability and change. Although available meteorological data were less than 30 years suggesting climate variability, farmers' perceptions covered up to 30 years and so addressed the question of climate change. A qualitative phase informed a household survey that covered a random sample of 388 households' respondents (39% women). Qualitative data were transcribed into text and analyzed based on content and meaning of the text. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) was used to analyze quantitative data. The results showed that there was no significant increase (P > 0.05) in inter-annual rainfall variability. However, seasonal rainfall variability showed a clear decreasing trend in April and December, in Iramba; and in January and April, in Meatu. Decreasing rainfall trend in April occurred simultaneously with increasing temperature trend. In addition, farmers' perception and meteorological data trends compared well on change and on increased rainfall unpredictability as well as on increased warming and dry years. Nonetheless, due to missing data in some periods, meteorological data trends did not show increased frequency of drought since the 2000s as opposed to farmers' perception. As hypothesized (P > 0.05), men and women's perceptions were almost the same. Similarly, perceptions of the poor, not so poor and the rich were almost the same (P > 0.05). Unlike the hypothesis, the binary logistic regression model showed that climate variability and change had significant impact on changing crop varieties and livestock grazing places relative to non-climatic factors. Warming (ß = -10.61, Wald = 36.26, P ≤ 0.001) showed the highest impact on changing crop varieties. In addition, drought (ß = 2.16, Wald = 6.82, P ≤ 0.009) showed the highest impact on changing livestock grazing places. Based on division of labour, control over resources and biased norms, climate variability and change increased and perpetuated existing asymmetrical gender relations. The study concludes that although inter-annual rainfall had not changed significantly, temperature, drought and seasonal rainfall variability had intensified relative to the situation in the 1970s. This had substantial impacts on cropping and livestock systems and on gender relations. Therefore, strategies used by the farmers and interventions promoted by the government and Non-governmental Organizations (NGOs) to address the impacts should comprehensively consider seasonal variability with gender perspectives. 2015-01-01T00:00:00Z

Trend Micro has New Zealand firmly in its sights following last year's success in the Australian channel. The company has teamed with Ingram Micro to target small to medium enterprises.
Dave Patnaik, Australia and New Zealand director for small and medium business, says his company is in the process of recruiting resellers. "We already have a longstanding relationship with Soft Solutions and this will not change. However, we saw an opportunity with Ingram Micro, especially within the small to medium business market. Ingram also has an impressive network of contacts. We have some third-party vendors, such as HP and Cisco, but our running alliance is with our partners."
Sim Bong, SMB manager for New Zealand, says the partnership came about because of Ingram's reputation. "Our partnership with Ingram has given us very good access to the smaller resellers. Trend Micro has had a lot of overseas success, which they are now trying to bring to New Zealand. We are trying to replicate our relationships from overseas, where Trend Micro has a larger market share."
Bong also attributes some of the company's success to a stir in the security market by other key players. "Moves in the market by other players in the security industry have been fortunate for us and has helped Trend Micro Move ahead."
Patnaik is introducing an incentive plan to get smaller businesses on board. "Potential customers have been sent free copies of our new antivirus and antispyware and are encouraged to install them. There is even an incentive for them in form of Westfield shopping vouchers, once the company has installed the software and sent us a screenshot."
Bong says smaller companies may not know about Trend Micro and he emphasises that contact and support with the customer is crucial. The company provides training and support to resellers. "Trend Micro is a bit like a shy person; we don't like to show off and would rather let our products do the talking for us. If we want to win business with local resellers, they need to feel comfortable with the product."

At one of my bible studies this week we were discussing and talking about "dwelling on His truth" as a way to find peace...
One of the questions asked of the group was whether we knew anybody who just really embodied a Godly peacefulness.
There were a couple shared stories of people facing monumental giants in life - be it sickness or some other challenge - who had found an amazing and impressive peacefulness in Him.
I am always inspired by those and know a few myself.
But as I was wracking my brain to think of a good solid example in my life... I kept coming back to this same person...
This girl has an amazing peace about her... ALL THE TIME!
She remains calm in the face of stress...
She chooses positive words...
She is always trying to lift others up...
She has displayed empathy and compassion like nothing I've ever seen...
And she almost always ends up back at Jesus with everything she does...
And please hear me... I'm not saying Mebrate is perfect or doesn't have challenges... come on! She's human, right?
But she faces her challenges and confronts her imperfections with an unearthly peace that passes understanding that can only come from one place...
Her heavenly Father!!
And her outlook, her presence, her empathy, her approach to God, her sense of joy in almost everything... ALL OF IT... has impacted her earthly daddy more than she'll ever know!
The world has certainly been blessed by this girl and I am absolutely blessed and privileged to be in the role of "daddy" to her.
I see you, Mebbie! And daddy is in awe of who He made you to be!

The Prometheus Project: Trapped by Douglas E. Richards
The Prometheus Project: Trapped
by Douglas E. Richards
(DNA Press)
Getting scientific principles across to kids is tough but Richards succeeds in doing just that in The Prometheus Project: Trapped. The best part is that it all takes place within a fictional story.
Ryan and Regan may be many things but they are not happy campers. Their family has moved cross-country to an isolated home where they know no one. Their parents work all hours. The kids are bored. Bored. BORED. Is it any surprise when they get into trouble?
The trouble they get into arises when they decide to see what it is their parents are up to, breaking several different codes to bypass a variety of high-tech forms of security. Good thing too because the two interfering children manage to save the day in an alien city.
How does the author pull off the teaching aspect without having it be preachy? Ryan and Regan observe facts, make theories, test them and then revise as needed. They live the science involved and make it work for them. Readers learn about the scientific method without a single lesson being involved.
I have to admit — I cringed when it became obvious time travel was involved. Time travel presents a host of difficulties for the author but Richards makes the solution work within the story, setting up the possibilities well in advance so nothing seems jarring.
An excellent choice for science loving kids or those who love daring adventure. Want to know more? Check out the author's site.

We're touring a sweet cottage high in the mountains with a secret sauna only steps away. This home feels like a modern 5-star resort, and the sauna house is the luxurious cherry on top! The beautiful natural landscape gives the impression of a sweet country cottage. Lush alpine gardens surround the home and create idyllic views out of every window. Inside, exposed wood beams and handmade terracotta floor tiles recall simpler times. It's a high contrast to the modern minimalist kitchen and sophisticated on-site sauna. This home is staged by the professionals at Juricev. It's a basilica of health and wellness and a wonderful place to relax and unwind. Let's take a tour now and discover the secrets of this world-class home.
The home itself is a lovely cottage style home built from solid wood. It is 2280 square feet, not counting the concrete sauna house which has 112 square feet of space. In the foreground, the sauna house seems to shine like a diamond. Actually, the aluminium windows and mirrored class of the sauna create that high shine look! Just steps away from the main house, the sauna is like a home away from home. We'll come back at the end of our tour to take a look inside. First, let's take a closer look at the main home.
From the front of the house, we get a more modern impression of the home. A steep, asymmetrical roof overhangs the outdoor balcony space on the second level. There is some resemblance to a European style chalet with the heavy eaves and wooden construction. The simple and unobtrusive wood plank facade is warm and welcoming.
This open and bright kitchen and dining space is charming. There is a cozy familiarity to the floor tiles. Handmade terracotta tiles are edged with a blue tile design. All the living spaces in the home are equipped with underfloor heating. Making coffee on a cold winter morning would be effortless if warm floors met your bare feet! Next to the dining table, a subtle bay window gives you a free and unobstructed view of the landscape.
In the kitchen, white dominates the look. Minimalistic features create a calming sensation. Natural stone countertops are the perfect backdrop for the high-end steel appliances. Bright and breezy, this kitchen is an unexpected balance of rustic country cottage and urban minimalism.
A faux-suede grey bed is a focal point in this bedroom. It softens the look of the room and brings in natural texture. The see-through glass side table is a light and airy addition to the space. Equipped with a balcony, this bedroom is tranquil setting.
The master bathroom in this home is seriously sophisticated. The angled roof and contrasting tile design create visual interest while the opaque sliding door brings in natural light. The glass boxed shower in the corner of the room is barely noticeable. The bright blue mosaic tiled walls bring a fresh personality to the bathroom. The warm and cool tones create a unique look for the space!
We're going back outside to check out the secret sauna. The sauna house is built out of concrete and so contrasts with the natural wood build of the main home. What's the secret? Inside, we'll find a wet sauna, a dry sauna, and a luxurious massaging bathtub. It's a classy spa experience at home! No vacation necessary. The sauna house sits next to the beautiful pond with a stream and a bridge. It's a picture-perfect mountain retreat.
The special glass of the sauna house lets you enjoy the view outside but have a little privacy if you're in the buff. From this angle, we can see the wet sauna, or steam room, along the far wall. Eucalyptus-scented steam will soothe and relax while clearing out your sinuses. Nothing is quite as refreshing!
In the centre of the room is the freestanding massage bathtub. A wall of natural stone creates a peaceful setting for a rejuvenating soak in the tub. On the other side of the sauna house is the dry sauna. Where you might have felt like you were a poached egg in the steam room, the dry sauna makes you feel like a roasting chicken. Still, there's no denying the relaxing and skin-softening benefits of sweating it out in a sauna.
We hope you enjoyed our tour of this sweet mountain cottage home with a secret sauna! It's a healthful place to relax and inspire. Want to see more homes that will chill you out? Check out our feature on a gorgeous Japanese cedar home with natural charm.

Being the game as long as Nas has, it is no surprise that he has enough unreleased content to create an entire album. The veteran rapper announced the follow up to his 2002 project 'The Lost Tapes.' 'The Lost Tapes 2' is expected to release this Friday (7/19).
Just three days ahead of the album release, Nas has released the first look into the project. The first track off of the album, "Jarreau of Rap (Skatt Attack)," dropped this past Friday (7/12). The track was produced by Eddie Cole, and features Keyon Harrold and Al Jarreau. This first taste of the project is promising and sets the bar for 'The Lost Tapes 2' fairly high.
Check out the first single off of Nas's upcoming project here!

We traveled in India for 4 weeks this fall. The main part of our trip was a 3 week Road Scholar Tour. We toured some of India's most popular sites, stayed in some lovely hotels, ate lots of Indian food and enjoyed meeting the friendly Indian people. The pictures I took are the memories of India that I want to keep and to share with you. I'm still recovering from the rest of India.
When talking with friends who have also traveled to India, the first question might be "What did you think of the Taj, the Amber Fort, or whatever..", but the second question is always "What is with all the trash?" So much of India seems covered in litter. It is scattered on streets and walkways and swept into piles everywhere. It is "literally" the first thing you notice when you arrive.
Each gated compound (historic site, hotel, home) is an island in a sea of trash. Our Road Scholar guide explained that trash pick-up is a big problem all over India. Besides not having the money to accomplish a real clean up, "Keep India Beautiful" is not part of the culture…..luckily there are wandering cows to eat it!
To be honest, litter is the least of India's problems. As a casual tourist with Western sensibilities I was often in over my head. In order to enjoy this trip I had to look past what I could not do anything about or could not understand.
I had to let India be India.
And so, our adventure began in Delhi. We arrived a few days prior to our tour to help overcome some of the jet lag (12 1/2 hour time difference!). Through our hotel, we arranged for a driver and guide to take us around before our tour started.
First Stop – The iconic India Gate. One of these couples is rebuilding the curbs. (It was a little disconcerting to see road workers wearing saris!)
A small military ceremony of some sort was going on. The feathered berets are a colorful touch!
The India Gate is at one end and a mile up this parkway (called the Raj Path) are the Government Buildings.
They have a "Keep New Delhi Clean & Green" Campaign going on around the Capital buildings. When our guide mentioned this I thought he was being facetious; …..everything is relative. It is actually pretty successful here.
You know you're in India when there are elephants on the Parliament Building.
Later, we returned here with our tour group – different lighting, same smog.
We visited several temples.
Gurudwara Temple
Gurudwara is a Sikh temple known for its kitchen where workers and volunteers serve lunch everyday to anyone, regardless of race or religion. We did not see the kitchen but did go inside the temple. They covered our heads with scarves and we removed our shoes. Sorry, no pictures allowed inside.
Birla Mandir Temple
Birla Mandir is a Hindu temple dedicated to Vishnu. Again – no shoes, no pix. In fact, here you also had to check your camera and cell phone – no cheating. This temple complex is 7 1/2 acres. We visited just a few of the shrines at the front. You can't tell from the photo but a busy divided street runs right in front. It's hard to back up far enough to get a better picture.
Chhatarpur Temple
Chhatarpur is the 2nd largest Hindu Temple in the world. It covers 60 acres and is made up of over 20 temples. This temple is also close to the busy street. We checked our shoes here but pictures were OK. There is a prayer tree at the entrance. Worshippers tie ribbons on it to signify their prayers.
These two pictures are from Wikipedia.
Akshardham is the largest Hindu Temple complex in the world. It opened in 2005. We left our car & driver way out in a parking lot, leaving all cameras and phones with him. We stood in lines (separate for women and men) to be patted down before entering the huge complex. (BTW, this is not unusual and all western hotels in India have now added security checkpoints since the 2008 bombing attacks in Mumbai.)
This whole complex is dedicated to Swaminarayan. There's an IMAX movie, exhibits of his life and a boat ride through Indian/Hindu history (ala "It's a Small World"). The temple is stunning with huge carved elephants in a frieze all around the base. We checked our shoes and hopped across the hot granite plaza to get to the cool white path of marble that leads up the steps and into the temple. There is also a Musical Fountain & Light show that was closed for repairs. For pictures click this: akshardham.com.
Though not a number 1 tourist attraction for Westerners, Akshardham is quite an experience and, understandably, very popular with Hindus.
But my favorite place in New Delhi was Lodi Gardens. The centerpiece of this park are several tombs and a mosque built in the 1400s. It was an especially nice place for a relaxing stroll on a hot afternoon.
Next post – we begin our Road Scholar Tour and spend two more days exploring Delhi.

I sleep in my cousin's shop in the night adjacent to his flat. I am a science postgraduate but even after struggling hard I am not getting a stable job. I also have an affair with a girl and our marriage has been fixed. My room's door faces west and I sleep with my head towards the east. I get dust allergy resulting in continuous sneezing and suffocation.
Sibushanker Nair
To get the benefits of Vastushastra, one should be staying in a place for a long time. From your description, you are okay as per Vaastu and your health problem could be because you sleep on dusty floor of the shop.
My date of birth is 12 October 1973. My house main door is northward. We sleep southward.
Raji George
Again the same old question: birth date and door location. If door locations are to be based on the birth dates then every house in Mumbai should have as many doors as the number of people staying in the house, with each one using a different door to get in and out. Well Raji, keeping your head in the southwest will make you quite commanding and happy. Don't worry.
My main door faces north, windows faces east. We sleep with our head to the east. I am always tense and there is no mental peace. Although my married life is peaceful but family peace is not there. Please suggest a solution.
Ketan shah
From your description, your house seems to be ok as per Vaastushastra but a solution to your tensions is to keep your head in south and sleep, as south will give proper rest to your brain and keep it healthy and strong to face any problems and hardship of life. Other reason could be your work place, which may not be as per Vaastushastra.
I am a male staying in a hostel on the sixth floor (last floor). The door of my room faces north which have two ventilators above it. Just opposite the door are two windows facing south. Above these windows ventilators, which are covered by opaque glasses? I sleep in the southeast corner of the room facing my head towards east. I always keep the drinking water in a copper pot just behind the bed. I sit near my bed, facing east for studying. We are ten students staying here and we also dry our clothes here. Ours is a common bathroom and toilet in the east side of the hostel. There are other two rooms between the toilet and our room. There is a common veranda outside the rooms. My date of birth is 29 may 1975 and my problem is that I can't concentrate on studies.
It seems that your directions are wrong or any have just started using this hostel accommodation recently. I have always said that Vaastushastra takes time to be effective and if your directions are right things will improve as time progress and lack of concentration could be due to your old accommodation directions.

Orthodontics is, in essence, the treatment of irregularities in the teeth and jaws. This area of dentistry doesn't only changes people's appearance for the better, but it also prevents dental problems that arise due to wear.
What Causes Orthodontic Problems?
There are many environmental and genetic reasons for irregularities in the teeth and jaws to occur. Thumb sucking, poor nutrition, or poor dental hygiene can all be causes of these conditions. Accidents on the sports field, for example, can also cause problems that require orthodontic treatment.
Here are some signs that you may need orthodontic treatment:
– Some of your teeth are missing
– You have too many teeth crowding each other
– You have an overbite, underbite, or a crossbite
– Your jaw is not in the correct position
If you notice any of the above signs, you should schedule a visit to a dental office near you. Your dentist will conduct a thorough examination to determine if fitting orthodontics is a suitable option to solve your problem.
Why Are Irregularities a Problem?
If you have crooked or missing teeth, the irregular spacing makes cleaning much harder, which can cause the accumulation of tartar and increase the risk of tooth decay. You may also have more difficulty chewing. The strain on your chewing muscles can cause headaches and even back and neck pain.
Widely spaced or crammed teeth can also influence your appearance. Straightening your teeth with orthodontics can have a positive influence on your appearance and self-confidence.
At What Age Should You Consider Orthodontic Treatment?
During the examination, your dentist will consider the growth and development of your teeth. Generally speaking, the younger you are, the better. Baby teeth play an integral role in the positioning of permanent teeth. It follows, then, that to fit orthodontics to baby teeth can be beneficial to the growth of permanent teeth.
From the age of 8, most children already have all their permanent teeth, but these teeth are still susceptible to treatment. Adults can also consider orthodontic treatment, even though their jaws are not growing anymore.
Different Types of Orthodontics
There are many different types of orthodontics available. The best type for you depends on your age and the degree of irregularity in your teeth or jaw. Conventional orthodontics are made of stainless-steel brackets, wires, and elastics.
Although traditional braces are still in use, there is new contemporary orthodontics available with a wide range of benefits. Invisalign is one example of a soft, transparent aligner that is an incredibly effective treatment for dental irregularities. Dental practitioners create custom Invisalign aligners that fit perfectly to your teeth.
These aligners prevent tooth decay. You can remove the aligner to eat and to brush your teeth. Since it is transparent, the Invisalign doesn't have the same impact your appearance as traditional metal braces have. The Invisalign is especially popular amongst adults.
Fitting orthodontics can improve your teeth's functionality and ensure that you live a comfortable life without any dental problems. If you suspect that you or your child may need orthodontic treatment, contact Vellore Woods Dental in Toronto, Canada to schedule a consultation. We provide our patients with orthodontic solutions that are centered around their needs.

text: I must confess I am not a morning person. I hate waking up early – whether it's weekday or weekend. However, my goal is to wake up early in the morning to exercise before heading to work. So far I've been doing it for a couple weeks. It seems I have more energy and more productive than before. Of course, I also need a good night sleep and eat healthy. The issue is having energy to be active and to concentrate. As the cold weather begins to arrive, I am not sure if this goal will last. I am hoping that I am able to sustain during the cold weather.

A 13 year old girl recently blew away the judges on Germany's version of the popular hit television show /The Voice. Laura Kamhuber, was able to be on The Voice Kids Germany and performed an amazing solo. She chose to sing, "I Will Always Love You", by the late Whitney Houston. This song is not an easy song to master. There are several high notes that must be hit, and only very gifted signers can achieve this.
While Laura sings the song, the judges are extremely impressed and begin to hit their buttons showing that they approve of her singing and want to coach her further into the game. Even when the song is finishing up, the judges continue to keep on pressing their buttons showing their love for the young girl's singing.
One judge even asks Laura to sit in another judges chair. He then tells her that this song is "unsingable" yet she manages to nail it.
Laura can choose from any judge, but she decided that she should stick with Lena Meyer-Landrut and chose her to be her coach. Though she did not make it all the way to the end, this young girl still has a powerful voice that is worthy of the show.

GUEST BLOG: Marcus Lockett, Managing Director of SPI Performance Coatings, explores why asbestos encapsulation is rapidly becoming the preferred method of choice for dealing with the dangers of asbestos within more established buildings.
Asbestos was extensively used by the UK construction industry from the 1950s to the mid-1980s for a wide range of applications, the most common being fireproofing and insulation.
Take the education sector, for instance. From the 1950s to the 1980s, 'system buildings' were one of the most popular methods of erecting school premises. However, this method of construction relied on structural columns being fireproofed with Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM).
Although asbestos was made illegal in 1999, it's highly probable that any building that was built before the year 2000 contains some form of asbestos.
According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) asbestos materials in good condition are considered safe unless asbestos fibres become airborne, which happens when materials become damaged. And it's these 'damaged' particles that have been proven over the years to present a health risk, with asbestos being linked to diseases, including lung cancer, asbestosis, diffuse pleural thickening, and mesothelioma
Given this risk, individuals and companies responsible for maintaining and repairing premises have a duty to manage asbestos as part of the Control of Asbestos Regulations, which came into force in 2012.
What's more, an abundance of Government-funded research and funding has resulted in many schools being tasked with the challenge of finding an asbestos management solution that suits their property and meets their budget and timescale.
However, what many people do not realise is that according to Health and Safety Executive (HSE) regulations, asbestos that is in good condition, can be left where it is, providing an in-place management plan is exercised.
While asbestos removal may seem like the obvious choice for dealing with asbestos, it's often complicated, expensive and can result in extensive downtime. In contrast, asbestos encapsulation within a seamless, protective coating is possibly the safest and most cost effective method of asbestos management. It involves relatively little disturbance of the asbestos, therefore minimising risk.
But that's not the only advantage to asbestos encapsulation. For example, roofs are an area where asbestos tends to be rife, with an estimated 1.5 million non-domestic properties reported to have an asbestos roof. Opting to encapsulate roof asbestos as opposed to removing it:
Encapsulation involves covering the asbestos with performance coating that predominantly:
Special polyurea products are used to apply the coating, which typically only has to be applied once and can often seal asbestos that's present in hard to reach places. What's more, another advantage offering by the coating is that it's less likely to flake or crack over time.
Compared to other more traditional materials like polyurethane and epoxies, polyurea technologies offer fast and reliable application. Touch dry in a matter of minutes, layers can be built up quickly, which means a site can return to service in hours, rather than weeks.
A plural component spray, polyurea technologies are renowned for outperforming all other performance coatings when it comes to preventing or bridging dynamic cracks, providing durability and the ultimate layer of protection. With no VOCs, polyurea technologies are also ideal for environments where health and safety is of primary concern, as well as buildings that will remain occupied during the application process.
As with any polyurea treatment, encapsulation is conducted by trained staff in controlled conditions and in accordance with the latest industry regulations and standards. Although every encapsulation is tailored to each site, most processes tend to typically involve adequately preparing the area to ensure the best possible results and regular follow up checks to assess the condition of the asbestos over time.
While many people's instinct might be to remove asbestos, it's worth remembering that it's not necessarily the safest or most cost effective solution. Providing the asbestos is deemed to be in good condition, taking the route of asbestos encapsulation is a highly effective, more affordable way of managing asbestos, not to mention, less hazardous and more efficient.
