Arvin Credit Repair and Debt Negotiation
Your credit report contains information about where you live, how you pay your bills, and if you've been sued or arrested, or have filed for bankruptcy. Credit reporting companies sell the data in your report to creditors, insurers, employers, and other organizations that use it to verify your applications for credit, insurance, employment, or renting a house. The federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) promotes the accuracy and privacy of information in the files of the nation's credit reporting companies.
Many financial advisors and consumer groups suggest that you should review your credit report periodically. Why?
- Because the information it contains affects whether you can get a loan — and how much you will have to pay to borrow money.
- To make sure the data is correct, complete, and up-to-date before you apply for a loan for a major purchase like a home or car, buy insurance, or apply for a job.
- To help protect against identity theft. That's when someone uses your personal information — like your name, your Social Security number, or your credit card number — to commit fraud. Identity thieves may use your information to create a new credit card account in your name. Then, when they don't pay the bills, the delinquent account is reported on your credit report. Inaccurate data like that can affect your ability to get credit, insurance, or even a job.
Debt Settlement and Negotiation, Arvin
The process of debt settlement is not something the untrained individual should try to do. There are a lot of different variables involved and a person not familiar with all of them could end up costing themselves a lot of money.
Debt settlement and negotiation, when properly done, can greatly reduce the amount of money owed, the interest rate being charged, or many times both. Also, many creditors will submit a positive entry into your credit report once the terms of the debt settlement or negotiation have been fulfilled.
Again, and this bears repeating, debt settlement and negotiation is best left to the trained professionals. Even if you are given a debt settlement directly by a creditor, one that seems to be be very good, there is a very good chance that the creditor would actually be willing to negotiate an even more favorable settlement.
Don't take chances with your credit report! Call the professional credit experts at The Hollenbeck and Associates today for a complimentary consultation.


text: Thursday, December 08, 2011 2012 PQRS Measure Information Now Available The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services has released the updated measures specifications for the Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS) for the 2012 reporting year, which include 2 major changes of importance to physical therapists—the ability to participate in reporting for the Functional Outcome Assessment Measure (#182) and changes to the existing Pain Assessment Measure (#131). The measure specifications provide program participants with important information regarding such as the measure definition, reporting instructions, and the qualifying case information (numerator and denomination definitions), which include the relevant quality data codes for reporting. Physical therapists will be eligible to participate in reporting for an additional individual measure in the 2012 reporting year—Measure #182: Functional Outcome Assessment. The Functional Outcomes Assessment measure requires documentation of a current functional outcome assessment using a standardized functional outcome assessment and documentation of a care plan based on identified functional outcome deficiencies. APTA will create a new podcast before the year's end to provide practitioners with additional details around reporting for this measure. Practitioners also should note that major changes have been made to the quality data reporting codes for Measure #131, the Pain Assessment Measure. The quality data codes for this measure have been changed for 2012; the 2011 quality data codes for this measure cannot be used in the 2012 reporting year. See the new 2012 measures specifications for further details located on APTA's PQRS Web site under the "2012 PQRS Measure Details" section. Comments I am looking for the data collection sheets for 2012 PQRS. The only information I have been able to find is the descriptions and instructions for the measures but not the actual data collection sheets. If you could be of any help I would appreciate it. Jeanette Adelman Office Manager Richard L. Stoneking, PT APTA ID#: 13656 Posted by Jeanette Adelman on 12/28/2011 1:34 PM I am also looking for the Data Collection sheets for ALL the PQRI measures. Can you help? Thank you Posted by robert tarantino on 1/14/2013 3:33 PM

Not my words but i second it
I meant to publish this on Monday but I messed up and forgot to. Sorry about that. But it's the same every year. The iOS 7 beta is intended for developers to test for bugs and software compatibility. It's not intended to be an early release preview, or the daily driver for anyone's main phone. This year more than ever, iOS 7 is really beta. It's not done. It's not cooked. It's cool as hell but there's a reason there's a lineup at the Apple Store outside Moscone for iPod touches. Not even developers want to risk their main phone. (I don't have it on my main phone either.) So here's the deal...
Stay away. And if you're not going to stay away, be classy about it. Respect the NDA (non-disclosure agreement) you become part of when you install the software. Send bugs to Apple, not to the front page, and absolutely don't post negative reviews for apps that don't work or look well under iOS 7. Developers will update what they can when they can, and find workarounds if and when possible, but they're not allowed uploading iOS 7 binaries yet, and won't be until just before launch. Send them bugs privately to help them out, don't screw up their ratings. They're not doing anything wrong.
Again, we -- and other people -- write this every year because some people tend to forget it every year.
Play with the beta if you have to, but stay classy about it.

Our herb plants are available for purchase direct from the farm at our Open days or by Collection, by prior arrangement, on a Wednesday between 10am and 3pm. However, if this is not convenient, please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com and we will try and accommodate your request.
The Botanical Name is known throughout the world. It includes the genus and the species plus in some cases the cultivar. For example Agastache is the genus, rugosa is the species and Agastache rugosa 'Golden Jubilee' includes the cultivar.
The Common Name is the name by which the herb is commonly known, for example thyme, sage etc. But please be aware that common names are often colloquial and relevant to the area in which you find them.
The Plant family is the group of plants which is more comprehensive than the genus.
- Annual a plant that lives for just one season.
- Biennial a plant that produces leaves in the first season and flowers in the second, then dies.
- Climber/Vine a plant that cannot grow without the support of other plants or structures.
- Deciduous a plant that drops it leaves in winter.
- Evergreen a plant that has leaves all winter.
- Herbaceous a plant that dies back into the ground in winter, becoming dormant, before reappearing in the spring.
- Monocarpic a plant that dies once it flowers; it can live for a number of years before flowering.
- Perennial a plant that lives for a number of seasons, most flower annually once established.
- Partial Evergreen a plant that holds some leaves throughout the winter.
- Shrub a woody stemmed plant that usually freely branches from the base.
- Sub-shrub a small, short, woody shrub, especially one that is woody only at the base.
- Sub-tropical a plant that can only survive in a warm, damp climate that does not drop below 10°C at night.
- Tree a woody plant that usually has a single stem.
- Tropical a plant that can only survive in a warm, damp climate that does not drop below 15°C at night.
Recommended planting position in the garden or where to place a pot, e.g. sun, partial shade etc.
Plants grow in many shapes and forms:
- Upright: a plant that is very straight.
- Clump: a plant that grows in a neat compact shape.
- Bulb: a plant that dies back into a bulb.
- Mat forming: a plant that grows low to the ground and makes a neat mat.
- Creeping: a plant that grows along the ground and produces roots at intervals.
- Bushy: a plant that, in the main, tends to be a shrub which makes a bush-like shape.
- Arching: a plant that grows upright then the growth arches, ideal for growing over a wall or in a container.
- Prostrate: a plant that lies flat on the ground.
This indicates the average spread and height that the plant will achieve in its life. It helps to know this when positioning plants in the garden. Bear in mind, that height and spread vary in definition according to the following plant types:
- Annual: this is the spread to which it will grow, and the height when in flower during the year.
- Biennial: this is the spread in the first year and the height of the flower in the second year.
- Herbaceous perennial and perennial: this is the spread the plant will achieve after a number of years once mature and the height when in flower.
- Shrub/evergreen tree: this is the average spread and final height after a number of years of growth.
All ratings refer to UK growing conditions and are based on the Royal Horticultural Society hardiness rating. The minimum temperature range, in degrees centigrade, are shown in the brackets below:
- H1a (15°C minimum): Under glass all year.
- H1b (10°C to 15°C): Can be grown outside in summer.
- H1c (5°C to 10°C): Can be grown outside in summer.
- H2 (1°C to 5°C): Tolerant of low temperatures but will not survive being frozen.
- H3 (-5°C to 1°C): Hardy in coastal and relatively mild, sheltered parts of the UK.
- H4 (-10°C to -5°C): Hardy through most of the UK.
- H5 (-15°C to -10°C): Hardy in most places throughout the UK, even in severe winters.
- H6 (-20°C to -15°C): Hardy in all of the UK and northern Europe.
- H7 (-20°C and below): Hardy in the severest European continental climates.
The soil is the engine of your garden, so it is important to know its condition before you start planting. Good plant growth is not only dependent on how much you feed the soil but it is also dependent on the structure of the soil. Soil can vary from acidic (pH 3.5) Sphagnum moss peat to alkaline (pH 8.5) Fine loam. Most herbs will tolerate a range of between 6.5 and 7.5 pH which is fairly neutral. There are always exceptions, for instance Rumex scutatus, Sorrel, will tolerate acid soils.
The pH of the soil refers to its acidity or alkalinity. It is a vital factor in the plant's ability to obtain, via its root system, all types of plant foods and essential chemicals. For example, an alkaline soil can produce stunted plants with yellowing leaves. This is because the minerals, especially iron, have become locked up in the soil. At a neutral pH of 7, most of the essential chemicals and plant foods become available to the plant so producing healthy plants.
The following 4 basic soil types are the most suitable for growing herbs:
- Clay 6.5 pH: This soil is composed of tiny particles that, when wet, stick together making the soil heavy and difficult for the roots to penetrate and in summer, when dry, sets rock hard. Even though it can be rich in plant nutrients, because of its characteristics it is improved by working in extra well rotted leaf mould or compost. This will improve the structure and allow young plants to become more easily established.
- Chalk 8.5 pH: This soil is light with lumps of flint or chalk, well drained and often shallow. It has a high pH making it very alkaline. It is possible to increase the nutrient content by adding loads of compost but it is difficult to lower the pH. A large number of herbs will tolerate chalk. However, considering the characteristics of this soil, to give it depth and help it retain moisture it may be easier to grow the herbs in a raised bed.
- Loam 5.5–8.5 pH: This is often considered the ultimate garden soil in which most herbs will grow. There are various types of loam depending on the content of clay or sand. A sandy loam is the best soil for growing the largest range of herbs as it is rarely waterlogged in winter, is dry in summer and it is naturally high in nutrients.
- Sand 4.5 pH: This soil feels rough and gritty when handled. It is very free draining, which means that the plant's nutrients are quickly washed away. A plus point to this soil is that it is quick to warm up in the spring so sowing and planting can be started earlier than in clay soils. To help it retain moisture it needs to be fed in winter with leaf mould to retain moisture and with well-rotted manure for an extra source of nutrients.
Checking the pH of the soil
To test your soil buy a soil testing kit from any good garden centre or store. The majority of amateur soil testing kits are very simple and rely on colour rather than a numerical scale. Acid soils turn a solution yellow- orange, neutral turn it green and alkaline turn a dark green.

You look forward to your family vacation all year: the sun, sand, surf. But who invited the jellyfish?
Frolicking in the ocean is a summertime rite of passage, but a jellyfish sting can spoil the fun. Here's how to handle it if someone in your family gets zapped by one of these mysterious sea creatures.
Jellyfish have been around for millions of years (they predate dinosaurs) and live in oceans all over the world. You might have noticed on visits to the beach that many days there are none to be seen; other times, you might spot a bunch of them among the waves or washed up on the beach.
There are many different types of jellyfish, and while their appearances can vary greatly, they all have the gelatin-like composition that gives them their name. Some just look like small, clear blobs, while others are bigger and more colorful with tentacles hanging beneath them.
It's the tentacles that cause the stings. To eat, jellyfish sting their prey with their tentacles, which release a venom that paralyzes their targets. Jellyfish don't go after humans, but someone who swims up against or touches one — or even steps on a dead one — can be stung all the same.
While jellyfish stings are painful, most are not emergencies. Expect pain, red marks, itching, numbness, or tingling with a typical sting.
But stings from some types of jellyfish — such as the box jellyfish (also called sea wasp) — are very dangerous, and can even be deadly. These jellyfish are most often found in Australia, the Philippines, the Indian Ocean, and central Pacific Ocean.
Jellyfish stings leave thousands of very tiny stingers called nematocysts in the skin. These stingers can continue to release jellyfish venom (poison) into the body. Sometimes, they can be rinsed off with seawater or scraped off using a plastic card (like a credit card or store loyalty or membership card).
One old folk remedy touts peeing on a jellyfish sting. But instead experts recommend rinsing with seawater and sometimes vinegar. Vinegar is a weak acid that, for some kinds of jellyfish stings, might keep the nematocysts from "firing," or releasing venom. Similarly, seawater from the jellyfish's home environment also seems to prevent them from firing. Fresh water, though, may cause the stingers to fire.
If your child is stung:
Call an ambulance immediately if someone has been stung and:
Reduce your family's chances of a jellyfish encounter by swimming only at guarded beaches, which are more likely to warn visitors about jellyfish. Look for a sign or warning flag (some beaches fly a purple warning flag when there's "dangerous marine life" in the water). Also consider stashing a small container of vinegar and a plastic card in your beach gear, just in case.

I think Canadians like me are interested in getting things that aren't available here in Canada. Like:
- L'oreal HIP cream liners
- L'oreal HIP pigments
- L'oreal HIP paints
- L'oreal de-crease eyeshadow primer
- UDPP (i think Ontario people can get it cuz they have tons of sephora there but we have none here in BC!!)
- Milani (shadows and blushes)
- Sonia Kashuk/EOB brushes

hey vanessa! you are sooo sweet and cool for doing this! SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!!!!
I can't afford mac, so any good blending brush (doesn't matter what brand), and any eyeshadow base (loreal, any brand) would be a life saver!!!!!!!!!

Dear Nessa,
first of all I love your blog and check on it every day. So sorry about your bunny and those rude comments you had about the subject.
Then: I would love to see some Milani shadows and those new eyepencils they had (wich you did a wonderful review on a while ago) at your store. I've searched all around the internet for a place to ship Milani internationally but can't seem to find one.
What I'm allso very interested in is the L'oreal HIP line, especially the paints and the crayons.
Although I can order NYX cosmetics from Cherryculture.com their international shipping charges are kinda high, so I wouldn't mind ordering my NYX products somewhere else.
And of course I'd love to try Your own Mineral Makeup line out!
Best wishes, Sara, Finland (EU)

Medhia we can get them here in Canada from RX pharma plus. They have quite a big selection, I live in GTA area, saw them there. Makesure you go to Rx Pharma plus not pharmaplus because some of the pharma plus are converted into RX pharmaplus but they do carry It went last week and saw on display. Price range I am not sure as I was in hurry.

Hey Nessa!
I love your blog, it's sooo addicting to view. Anywhoo, would you be selling MAC Cosmetics on your website for a lower price then retail? I'm only asking because I know you mention in many of your blogs that you always use your MAC PRO card. That would benefit a lot of us! And it would be an amazing idea!

What about MAC? Here in the Philippines we have to pay (converted pesos to dollar):
$19 for eyeshadow
$29 for MSF's
$21.50 for lipsticks and lipglosses
$80 for the Holiday Brush sets
$26 for paint pots

I live in Thailand and your online store sounds like a great idea since you can offer products we cant get here + you dont overcharge for shipping!
Anyway here are some ideas that I would love to see on your site. Brushes or make up from Sonia Kashuk, Mac PRO products such as pigments and lip erase and other brands that are not available here such as urban decay, nyx, milani, cargo and other drug store brands.
Thank you!

Hey Nessa,
Sorry I have been on for so long, for some reason I can't get onto Blogger at my uni :( I was so sorry to hear about Jessica and the downright losers who were so horrible about it.
Being in the UK I'd say the hardest things to get that I'd love to see are Milani products, esp the newer ones that you can't find online, L'Oreal eye primer, also the lovely brushes from MMBB as they don't ship internationally. I've been lucky with Cherry Culture so far for my NYX, bar the long shipping time, but I think that's cos the post has got terribly slow.
Also... if you are thinking of starting your own mineral line have you looked at Archetype Cosmetics?? They have some awesome looking colours but they have a 5 week turnaround on orders :(

Hi Vanessa,
You are SUCH a sweetie for doing this!! I'm not able to find the Milani singles around here anymore, just the new Wet/Dry ones. I was wondering if you would please be able to find Milani's Sea Foam eye shadow single? I am IN LOVE with that color and can't seem to find it. If you're not able to find it either, please please let me know if you happen to know of a dupe of it. (MAC or NYX). Thank you SO MUCH!! I wish you all the best. This is a really great thing that you're doing for so many people!

Hi Nessa! I'm a big fan of your blog. I'm here in the east coast (US) so I have pretty good access to most cosmetics. However, I'm having a hard time finding those Sonia Kashuk bent eyeliner brushes. As for the Ecotools brushes, I had to order them online as the Walgreens around here don't carry them yet. Another suggestion would be the Loew-Cornell brushes from art supplies stores since none of those stores ship internationally.
Personally, I would definitely be interested in MAC Pro products. The nearest one is about 2 hours from me so I would like the option to just go to a website and click to order. And along the lines of MAC, you may also want to offer those Elf quad palettes ($1 each) for international customers as they fit MAC eyeshadows and is a cheaper alternative.
Best of luck to your new venture! =)

Hey Nessa! I'd love to see some NYX stuff in your store. Also, the luminous Milani blush you love. :) I've heard rumours of seeing some NYX and Too Faced stuff in stores here in Canada, but I haven't had any luck yet. Do you think you could sell some of that Too Faced Shadow Insurance as well? I'm trying to find some for my brother's wedding because I'm in need of a good base.

As you've prob. figured out, us canadians don't get much goodies in terms of makeup. Why? Cuz we suck!! I'd def'n give you a lot of buisness if you could get all the already mentioned brands and one more... the Urban Decay brand! Especially their primer potion! I even went on the website and you can't even order them online! Talk about discrimination!!!
Can't wait till you open up that estore! If you ever need any help for graphics or layout feel free to hit me up! I'm an art student always looking for gigs!

like the others I'd love to see Milani products. Especially the blushes for me :)
like Stephy listed, those L'oreal HIP products would be great :) They haven't started selling the gel liners, and paints here yet.
Essence of Beauty brushes would be nice too :) No CVSs' here!
Even higher end makeup at US pricing would be great. The prices are always marked up 20% or more in Canada, and probably even more in Australia. Eg. Tarte cheekstains cost CAD$38 here compared to US28 right? (The exchange rate is almost on par with the dollar right now)
This sounds exciting btw :) I can't wait to see your launch!

Hey Nessa, I was reading your entry about you will be selling MAC items for retail price. Just a suggestion, could you just sell them to us for retail price with shipping? For example; MAC eye shadows are $14 with free shipping. I know that people order items on the MACPRO site and it's tax free. That would be great!
- May 10, 2008 at 10:40 PM

kaily its not tax free when you order on the pro site and shipping isn't free either when ordering from mac pro. Pro discount is automatically taken when you use your pro card number to login so theres no way to go around it sorry

Hey Nessa! I'm sorry I misinterpret myself. I hope this doesn't offend you or anything, but when you call MAC PRO over the phone and order items, it is tax free. It was also a shocker to me! I've ordered many times and used my pro discount. My first time, I asked them how much was shipping and they told me it was $7 for some items and I kinda hesitated if I wanted to continue on with my order (considering I could travel 30 miles away to a PRO store) and they told me but there are no taxes. I asked how much do I have to spend in order to get free shipping and of course, you probably already know $150 after discount. Anywho, you should check that out, it could save you taxes in California!

You could sell samples of the NYX Chrome shadows at a decent price, and make a profit off it! I know there's a bunch of them I want but can't justify spending the money to buy all of them since I know I won't use up even half the shadow. That's something to consider at least!

I would love to be able to get my hands on MAC new product launches as it reaches about appx. 3 months to get here. Also, I'd love to get my hands on the Sonia Kashuk brushes,especially the bent liner, NYX round lipstick, some MAC pro lipsticks and other lipsticks that they don't ship out here (i.e. snob, myth). I also want L'oreal Hip gel liner in eggplant and teal, Milani shadows and some of your favorite mineral shadows. You're such a good product pusher, and I mean it in a really good way cos otherwise how else would I be aware of great drugstore products if not from you? Oh, you did a review on a cool contact lenses washer, sorry forgot the name, I'd love to have that too.

Hi Kaily! Thanks for the heads up! I don't order by phone and either way id pay for shipping, but I will definitely keep it in mind! Thanks!
Hi Stephanie! Yeah I actually have some NYX Chrome eyeshadows but since they are too small, it'll only be enough for a sample or two, and it just isn't worth the aggravation to me to have to pack it and ship it out just for that....but thanks for the suggestion!
Hi Cris! Thanks for the great idea on the "Vanessa's Picks" seems like a lot of people also agree since I often get asked what are my favs! LOL!

It'd be great if you could sell MAC brushes on your new site. It's insanely overpriced here in Malaysia! I've been meaning to get them for quite some time now. Wouldn't mind paying retail too.
And maybe NYX products that'll be great.

During laser surgery, a small, intense beam of light is used to cut through tissue by heating and vaporizing it, meaning there's less bleeding, less pain, and a shorter recovery time. But the surgical technique itself is similar to the traditional method (or "onychectomy"), with the laser simply replacing a steel scalpel blade. So the use of a laser is no substitute for a well-trained veterinarian with plenty of surgical experience. Moreover, the price of laser machinery ranges from $25,000 to $30,000, a prohibitive cost for most veterinary hospitals.
HSUS POLICY:Cosmetic Surgery on Animals It is the policy of The Humane Society of the United States to oppose tail myotomy, tail neurectomy and tongue myotomy in equines, ear-cropping of dogs, and declawing of cats when done solely for the convenience of the owner and without benefit to the animal. Further, the society opposes any other unnecessary surgical procedure that is painful, distressful, or restrictive of the function of the body part involved when done for cosmetic purposes or to disguise nature imperfections of any animal.
Another technique, known as a "tenectomy" (or tendonectomy), is becoming increasingly common. Rather than amputate the cat's claw, the surgeon removes a piece of the tendon that controls the cat's ability to flex and extend his claws. After surgery, the cat's claws are intact, but remain permanently extended. More than half of the cats who undergo this procedure can still use their claws to some extent, but cannot scratch normally. Since the cat can't sharpen his claws, the claws quickly become rough, grow excessively, and must then be trimmed on a regular basis. A recent study published in the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association ("Comparison of effects of elective tenectomy or onychectomy in cats," Vol. 213, No. 3, August 1, 1998) found that, 24 hours after the procedure, cats who had undergone a tenectomy felt significantly less pain than did those who underwent an onychectomy. But no long-term study of the tenectomy procedure has yet been published, and many veterinarians are concerned that cats subject to the operation may be prone to scarring, gnarling, and atrophy of the toes.
So while there have been advances in the way that cats are declawed, it's still true that for the majority of cats, the pain and expense of this surgical procedure are unnecessary. Educated cat owners can easily train their cats to use their claws in a manner that allows cat and owner to happily coexist. (View great advice from the Dumb Friends League about how to curb destructive scratching in cats.) Declawing and tenectomies should be reserved only for those rare cases in which a cat cannot be properly trained, and, as a result, must be surgically altered or removed from the home. In these cases, a veterinarian should inform the cat's caretakers about complications associated with the surgical procedures (including the possibility of infection, pain, and lameness) so that cat owners have realistic expectations about the outcome.

According to the American Dental Association (ADA), it is never too early to establish good oral hygiene habits. This will ensure healthy teeth and gums for your child.
Here are some tips for parents from the ADA.
Clean Gums for Clean Teeth
After each feeding, wipe your baby's gums with a clean gauze pad. At birth, your baby already has 20 primary teeth, some of which are almost completely formed in the jaw. Wiping the gums will remove the plaque and bacteria that can harm teeth as they erupt from the gums. Begin brushing with a soft toothbrush when the first tooth erupts.
Drinks for Bedtime and Nap Time
Never allow your child to fall asleep with a bottle containing milk, formula, fruit juice, or sweetened liquids. This can lead to tooth decay. Instead, fill a bottle with cool water for your baby.
The same is true walking around with a bottle or sippy cup containing milk, formula, fruit juice, or sweetened liquids.
First Dental Visit
It is recommended that your child has a dental visit 6 months after the first tooth arrives or by their first birthday. Be sure to make a call to the dentist after the first tooth erupts. The dentist will check for decay and other possible problems and can show you how to properly clean your child's teeth.
Balanced Diet
Ensure that your child eats a balanced diet that contains a variety of foods from the 4 major food groups:
- Grain products
- Fruits and vegetables
- Protein foods, such as lean meat and beans
- Dairy from low fat or fat-free milk, cheese, and yogurt
Nutritious Snacks
Provide nutritious snacks, such as cheese, raw vegetables and fruit, or low fat or fat-free plain yogurt. Limit the number of starchy or sugary snacks your child eats. After a snack that contains sugars or starches, the teeth are attacked by acids for 20 minutes or more.
Fluoride is a naturally occuring mineral that protects teeth from tooth decay. It is available in toothpastes, mouth rinses, gels, applied at the dental office, and tables prescribed by dentists. In many communities, fluoride is also found in drinking water.
Talk to your child's doctor about whether your child is getting the right amount of fluoride.
Daily Brushing
Make sure that your child brushes at least twice a day. Use a fluoride-containing toothpaste that has the American Dental Association Seal of Acceptance once your child is aged 2 years. Set a good example by brushing your own teeth at least twice a day.
Daily Flossing
Teach your child to clean between the teeth daily with floss. A parent should begin using floss on a child's teeth as soon as any two teeth touch.
Regular Dental Visits
Take your child to the dentist regularly. Children should know that the dentist is a friendly doctor who will help them take care of their teeth. Be positive and try to make dental visits an enjoyable experience for your child.

ANTI- Label Blog Celebrates One Year Anniversary With Exclusive Neko Case MP3 Download and More
In honor of late adopters everywhere, the ANTI- label blog is celebrating its one anniversary with an exclusive download of the song "Middle Cyclone" off of Neko Case's upcoming album of same name, out next Tuesday, March 3rd. In addition to the free song, there will also be give-a-ways all week that include signed copies of Middle Cyclone, a collection of Neko's ANTI- catalog, a Date Farmers-designed limited edition N.A.S.A skate deck and more.
The ANTI- label blog launched a year ago this week with the prophecy that the staple of the indie rock scene - the beard - had come to its inevitable demise when Honus Honus of mustachioed Man Man fame appeared bare-faced in public for the first time in years. While that declaration may have been a bit premature, the blog had better luck in the months to follow, becoming the main artery of information for the historic href="http://www.antilabelblog.com/?p=231">Tom Waits' Glitter and Doom Tour, the portal for a special, unprecedented href="http://www.antilabelblog.com/?p=1301">Neko Case/Best Friends Animal Society benefit promotion and a place for ANTI's African American artists, including living legends Booker T. Jones, Bettye LaVette and others, to express their unique viewpoints on href="http://www.antilabelblog.com/?cat=150">Black History Month.
ANTI- Records - whose mission statement is simply "real artists creating great recordings on their own terms" -- is home to some of today's most creative and peerless musicians ranging from the iconic Tom Waits and Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, to the enduring Ramblin' Jack Elliott and Mavis Staples, from the indie upstarts Islands and Man Man, to the imitable Jolie Holland and DeVotchKa. The label has a storied history of working such greats as Joe Strummer, Eddie Izzard, Elliot Smith, Daniel Lanois, Merle Haggard and Solomon Burke among others. For a complete catalog past and present, please see www.anti.com
The ANTI- label blog is run by Gina Gurewitz, chief editor and copywriter at Epitaph/Anti/Hell-Cat and wife of Epitaph founder/Bad Religion guitarist Brett Gurewitz, and John Albert, whose book Wrecking Crew was published by Scribner in 2005 and who is a regular contributor at the LA Weekly, the Los Angeles Times, Variety, Fader and more.

Hearing loss is a decrease in the ability to hear. It can vary in degree of loss and occur in one or both ears. There are three parts of the ear. Problems that contribute to hearing loss can occur in one or more of these parts.
Hearing loss is one of the most common health conditions in the United States. Although it affects people of all ages, the numbers increase significantly with age.
Hearing loss is the most common birth defect. Approximately half of the cases of hearing loss in children result from genetic factors. Problems during birth or soon after can also lead to hearing loss, such as lack of oxygen, severe jaundice, or bleeding in the brain.
Two of the most common causes of hearing loss in older adults are presbycusis and tinnitus.
Presbycusis develops slowly as a person ages, especially after age 50, and continues to worsen. It is caused by a combination of hereditary and environmental factors, including exposure to noise and smoking. This condition makes it hard for a person to hear normal conversation and tolerate loud sounds. It sometimes involves permanent damage of the inner ear structures or nerve pathways in the ear leading to the brain .
Tinnitus is ringing, hissing, or roaring sounds in the ears. It can occur with any kind of hearing loss and often is caused by loud noise or certain medications. The condition can also be a sign of other health problems, such as allergies and heart and blood vessel conditions. Tinnitus can occur on and off and can stop completely.
There are 3 main types of hearing loss: conductive, sensorineural, and mixed.
Conductive hearing loss is due to problems in the outer or middle ear that interfere with sound passing to the inner ear. It usually involves a decrease in sound level and can often be corrected by medical or surgical treatment.
Causes of conductive hearing loss:
- Blockage by ear wax
- Fluid in the middle ear
- Ear infection, also known as otitis media
- Otosclerosis—a disorder of the bones in the middle ear
- Hole in the eardrum
- Abnormalities in the outer ear, middle ear, or ear canal
- Defect at birth that causes complete closure of the ear canal
- Tumors
- Trauma leading to disruption of the bones in the middle ear
Sensorineural hearing loss is due to damage to the inner ear or the major nerve pathway that goes from the inner ear to the brain. In addition to a decrease in sound level, it also affects the ability to understand speech. This type of hearing loss is permanent. It cannot be corrected medically or surgically, but it can be treated with hearing aids and assistive devices.
Causes of sensorineural hearing loss include:
- Excess noise
- Birth injury
- Hereditary factors
- Aging
Exposure to toxic substances, including drugs like:
- Streptomycin
- Gentamicin
- Chemotherapy drugs
- Diuretics
- Steroids
- Heart medications
- Quinine
- Anesthetics
- Aspirin-containing drugs
- Tumors like acoustic neuroma
- Cardiovascular disease
- Multiple sclerosis
- Viruses such as measles, mumps, adenovirus, and rubella
- History of meningitis or syphilis
- Neurologic diseases such as multiple sclerosis and stroke
- Inner ear disorders such as Meniere's disease
- Otosclerosis affecting the inner ear
- Previous brain or ear surgery causing damage to the inner ear
- External trauma to the ear
Mixed hearing loss is due to a combination of both conductive and sensorineural hearing loss.What are the risk factors for hearing loss?What are the symptoms of hearing loss?How is hearing loss diagnosed?What are the treatments for hearing loss?Are there screening tests for hearing loss?How can I reduce my risk of hearing loss?What questions should I ask my healthcare provider?Where can I get more information about hearing loss?

STARBUCK, Wash. — A private company plans to build a multimillion-dollar plant four miles west of Starbuck to convert wheat and alfalfa straw into pulp.
The plant will require approximately 240,000 tons of straw annually. The company, Columbia Pulp, Dayton, hopes to get that from farms within a 75-mile radius, said John Begley, manager and CEO. The plant will produce 140,000 tons of paper-grade pulp per year that will be sold to packaging and personal care product companies, he said.
The 150,000-square-foot facility will cost in the "tens of millions of dollars" and should open in the fall of 2015, Begley said. The company is beginning to get Columbia County permits and met with county commissioners Dec. 18.
"The project has strong environmental and economic benefits," Begley said. "It will reduce field burning in the region and be an economic boom to Southeastern Washington."
The plant will employ more than 130 people, probably bringing new residents to Starbuck and Dayton, he said. Starbuck's population is 127 and Dayton, 22 miles to the south, has a population of 2,473.
More than 10 years ago, the state Department of Ecology asked farmers to reduce the burning of wheat stubble after harvest, said Byron Seney, a Dayton grower.
"After bluegrass growers in the Spokane area lost their burning, it kind of hit home to us," Seney said.
Burning is done to remove stubble for planting. Columbia County farmers began tilling more stubble under but that increases soil erosion, Seney said. He and seven other growers began looking for other ways to remove wheat stubble to make no-till planting easier. They gained the help of University of Washington professor Mark Lewis, who designed a non-pressurized system of pulping wheat straw. A little alfalfa is added to brighten the pulp, Seney said.
Phoenix Pulp and Polymer, Seattle, with which Lewis is affiliated, developed the system, Seney said. Columbia Pulp obtained exclusive regional use of the technology, Begley said.
Seney said there's ample straw to feed the plant, but growers may be reluctant to bale from steeper hillsides so Columbia Pulp is drawing from the larger 75-mile radius.
Seney built and patented equipment in 2012 that allows Case International 535 quadtrac tractors to swath and bale wheat stubble at the same time. His Quadbaler is designed to harvest and bale stubble on hillsides too steep for conventional swathers and balers. That equipment, he said, could help farmers bale more straw.
The plant will have a big impact on the market of straw sold to dairies and feedlots for feed and bedding and to mushroom producers in Canada, Seney said.
