Jah and Jahnes love. I was exposed to Voodoo and Catholicism during my childhood. And I loved the glass art and the story that they related in the Catholic Religion. But, RastafarI has my heart and soul. I can use crystals for healing and I also like astrology. But, I don't like witchcraft and Voodoo. Thanks for a very enlighting episode of your ShiftgetsReal. I cannot wait to watch the next one. Please do it about your alkaline diet. Blessed love.
Definitely grabbing most of these reads. Thanks so much 💚
Y'all are so awesome❤❤❤ keep the book recommendations coming. I'm a HUGE fan of shadow work
When talking about the value of women in the Holy Bible, it has to do with culture. God doesn't view women as less in value. Just like today, some cultures see women as less in value and still practice a religion per free will. Sorry you both had such poor experieces! I enjoyed the podcast.
LOVE is my religion. This was so beautiful!
In this day & age it is great to see an intelligent & healthy group of black people. Respect. You guys didn't go Hollywood and get your bodies mutilated and you didn't sell out and get emasculated. Much respect.
thanks for the book recommendations and insight into your spirituality. I am still trying to develope my own and have been looking for some reading material. Recently taro/oracle and chakra work has been standing out. Another great episode!
Oh yes I think aliens are real! I experienced one looking at me while sleeping and the energy was more of it being curious and observing me! 😁👽
You guys hit on many things! As a white woman I experienced same issues in church. I see spirit in many religions! I don't understand Hinduism as the caste system keeps people poor and this is a political issue too. Energy fascinates me because you can experience it and we see it in all life forces! Negative and positives create. Ashley when I studied Buddhism I knew Christians would say I'm going to hell because I meditated. Love chakra healing! Love you guys keep moving keep
Loving. ☮☯😘
Hitting the "thumbs up" just doesnt do it for this segment. I need a LOVE 💜 button!!! Thank you both for this. We haven't met YET but we are connected for sure. Blessings

Stream Totem Skin's Debut 'Still Waters Run Deep' Exclusively With Terrorizer
Swedish dark hardcore troupe Totem Skin are streaming their debut full-length 'Still Waters Run Deep' in its entirety, exclusively with Terrorizer.
Totem Skin formed as a trio last year, releasing two EPs that saw their own distinct style of passionate, crusty hardcore fury blossoming into something quite spectacular indeed. The band's lineup has since grown to accommodate a full six members, and their sound has been subject to a similar evolution too.
'Still Waters Run Deep', their first album length release, is their most intense yet, weaving intricate and sombre melodies in amongst their apocalyptic displays of aggression. The album is a diverse listen, juxtaposing explosions of blind rage with moments of eerie calm, as the band's dual vocalists lacerate their vocal chords over the top of it all.
'Still Waters Run Deep' is due to be released in late November via Dog Knights Productions, and is available to pre-order here. If you just can't wait to hear it though, then hit the play button below and prepare to be floored…
You can find Totem Skin on Facebook.

DBTV: Tarkan Interview at NYC Fashion Week
Tarkan might not yet be a household name in the United States, but with his forthcoming album - star studded with collaborations featuring some of the hottest US artists, it soon will be unforgettable. In Europe, Russia, and especially Turkey, the press has compared his effect to that of Elvis' on the US in the 1950s. Tarkan, famous for his spellbinding performances, is an award winning German-born, Turkish pop-singer known as the "prince of pop" by the media on the other side of the Atlantic. He has several multi-platinum selling records, with a total of over 15 million albums sold.
Check out my interview with Tarkan at the Emilie Humanitary fundraiser at Fashion Week in NYC where we discuss his humanitarian, environmental, and animal causes in addition to music such as his fighting of a controversial dam in Turkey and his collaboration with PETA to help animals like strays in Turkey and those typically used in the fur industry.
Tarkan was confronted by PETA in 2008 for wearing fur on the cover of his album. Once he learned of the plight of fur-bearing animals, he made an apology and has sworn it off. He also really enjoyed the Dr. Cow's vegan cheese I gave him, and I hope to get the opportunity to prepare him a full vegan meal soon!

Updated on
I love Istanbul. Even though I've been going to Istanbul for as long as I can remember, it still strikes me as one of the most exotic, magical cities in the entire world. Even though it's a city I love, so many people only go to Istanbul when traveling to Turkey, and there is so much more to see and do in this amazing country, but it's a good start and it certainly has some amazing sights to see. I hope you enjoy our Istanbul Travel Guide.
The Hippodrome is hard to notice..it's basically the road with a few statues in the middle, but it used to be where they would hold chariot races and receive foreign dignitaries. The Basilica is a little difficult to find. Cross the street and there is a small green hill. It is sort of on the other side of the hill. There are a lot of restaurants and cafes right there.
Note: You can go into the mosques as long as it is not prayer time. Women should wear a scarf to cover their hair. At some mosques they will let you borrow one, and at the Blue Mosque you'll see people not wearing them. You definitely should bring one and wear it.
The Grand Bazaar is up the hill from Aya Sofya. Especially if you have children, do not walk. Take the tram (see below). Do not go on Sunday, but the best thing would be to go as early as possible on any other day. It can be very tiring! I personally like shopping at the Egyptian (Spice) Bazaar better, so you might want to go here first. I would NOT go to both on the same day, because it can be so exhausting fending off some of the vendors. BTW: Usually the Turks will not pressure you into buying outside of these bazaars and the carpet shops. You definitely want to bargain inside the bazaar, but you do not bargain for food or in shops.
Power Tip: If you go into a shop, and you think you will purchase something, make sure you take the seller's offer of tea. Children will love the apple tea and it's free, no strings attached. Watch the way they call for the tea. Sometimes they will just yell out the door, sometimes they'll send one of the workers, and sometimes they will push a bell. The tea vendor will come in with a tray of tea. You might not see them pay for it at all, but sometimes they pay with little colored chips. It's all very interesting. Definitely do this at least one time!
Egyptian Bazaar (Spice Bazaar) – This is one of my favorite areas in the city. It is located near the Yeni Camii (New Mosque). Don't bother going into this mosque, but if the old ladies are out in front selling pigeon food, buy some and see the pigeons swarm. Again, the kids will love it. Good photos too. If you are facing the Spice Bazaar, there are two outside markets you must walk through. The one on the left is the animal/pet food market. It is surrounded by cafes. Look for the leeches that a lot of people still buy when they have a wound they need to suck out the blood. Also the animals they sell as pets can be very odd. On the right side is the cheese/fish/produce market. Definitely buy some pomegranates and some tangerines. They are in season and delicious! Here is where you want to stock up on your pistachios as well. Don't get the ones dyed red.
Inside the Spice market is fun, but you have to do all the sides first, then go out the opposite door you entered. There is even more market, but as soon as you step out you will smell coffee. The small store on the left (across the alley) is very famous. If you like strong, strong coffee you might want to buy some, but I think looking at the line and just smelling it is awesome! Keep walking straight up the hill, and after the equivalent of about two blocks, veer right to go to the
Rustem Paşa Mosque. This is my favorite mosque in Istanbul. It is gorgeous and known for its Iznik tiles, and as a bonus doesn't usually have a lot of tourists.The area in front of the Spice Bazaar is known as Eminonu and it is a key area. If you look over the Bosphorus, there are a few things for you to try/do.
First you walk under the road and you will see some lit up boats with people selling fish sandwiches from them. If you like fish, definitely try it. The bones will be in it. Maybe just buy one to share for the experience. You will also see red carts selling a juice. It is made from pickled veggies…I would NOT recommend trying that! It's very bitter.
Second, to the right of the fish boats is the Galata Bridge. Walk across it and see the fisherman, maybe eat at one of the fish restaurants below. You will see the Galata Tower from here. It's not a far walk, but you can also take the tram.
Topkapı Palace – Especially the Harem and the Treasury
The last two sights on my list are not in Sultan Ahmet area, but well worth seeking out.
Chora Church – Beautiful mosaics. It can get very crowded. Ask your hotel the best way to get there.
Rumeli Hisari (one of my favorite places) – This is one of the two fortresses that are on either side of the Bosphorus. The sultan used to have a chain hooked up between them and boats could not cross to and from the Black Sea unless they paid the taxes. Rumeli Hisari is a lot of fun to climb around for the boys. At the base are some great, great restaurants. I always go to the Blue and white one – I can't remember the name. The food is great.
To get to Rumeli Hisari -From bustling Eminonu, or any metro stop near the main tourist sites for that matter, take the metro towards Kabatas. From there you have to cross the street to the buses and take the 22, 22RE, or 25E. These are all very frequent and you won't have to wait more than five minutes. Tell the bus driver as you get on where you are going and try to sit not too far from him. He'll take care of you and tell you where to get off if you happen to miss the not-too-tiny fortress. Rumelihisari costs 3 Tl. (I think you can use the tram tokens on the bus, too…not sure). The bus ride is pretty and takes about 20 minutes each way.
Tram – Cheap, fun, and easy. You have to use tokens, and there will be booths set up at the station. Go ahead and buy enough for a number of rides. It's like having a handful of coins, and if you buy enough you won't have to keep standing in line.
The very last thing I think is a definite must-do is take one of the ferries up the Bosphorus. You can take the Bosphorus tour, but you have to be at the ferry in plenty of time, and the whole tour is about 3 hours. I've never done it, but people rave about it. I just take a ferry to someplace, get off, walk around, and take it back. It's a good fun, and the ferries are cheap. I would probably take it to Uskidar or Kadikoy, both of these are very short rides but you get to go to the Asian side of Istanbul. It's pretty cool to be able to do two continents in one day! The food is better on the Asian side because there really aren't that many tourists that go. Even if you don't spend much time on the other side, just go to go. The ferry ride is worth it, and kids will love it.
Whirling Dervishes -The shortest one is about 40 minutes long. Hoja Pasha Art and Culture Center in Istanbul. The show is held in a 550 year restored haman (public bath) and costs about 40 Tl. for a one hour show. If you would like to make reservations phone: +90-212-211-4626 or 4636 or email:firstname.lastname@example.com.
Turkish Nargile – Hookah
One of the best things about living in Turkey is the weather, and the way cafe owners have learned how to maximize the abundance of sun to their advantage. Everywhere you go, nargile cafes abound. The proprietors have gratiously provided either umbrellas or canvases along with fans to keep you in the shade and as comfortable as possible. The European tradition of sitting all day at a cafe is alive and well here, and one of the best ways to do this to order a nargile, a hookah, a water pipe.
Nargile tobacco comes in an abundance of flavors from coconut, apple, and pineapple, to the modern taste of cappucino. As with all Turkish services, the waiter will do all the hard work for you preparing the pipe. Nargile is a tradition brought to Asia Minor from India and Persia; even if you don't smoke, this is one to try. The fruity flavor, along with the warmth of the Anatolia sun and your Turkish hosts, makes this an experience to remember.
Day Trips from Istanbul
Taking the Ferry to the Princes Islands and Visiting Buyukada
Buyukada, the biggest of the Prince's Islands is an inexpensive way to get outside of the hustle and bustle of sightseeing in Istanbul and just relax. Before coming, Devon had mentioned the one thing she wanted to do while here was to ride a donkey. Thinking back to my childhood, I remembered that we used to take donkeys up to the monastery in Buyukada, and yes, they still do it.
Getting there was half the fun. We found out the ferry leaves from Kabatas, which coincedentally is the last stop of the tram. There are many ferries that leave from this stop, but finding "Adalar" (Islands) was relatively easy; we paid our whopping 3 Tl. and immediately boarded. We found seats outside, but under the shade. This turned out to be a great spot, especially when the girls in the row in front of us were shat upon, not once – but twice, by seagulls!
Buyukada was the fifth stop, so we were able to see the other islands on the way. Many appear to be great future stops. Upon arrival, we headed straight for the center square (clocktower) and turned left. There we found the horse carriages that would take us around the island, and more importantly to the donkey corral. We quickly hired one and were on our way. We saw many people who had rented the bicycles. They were struggling, so we figured the carriage was a great deal. Walking would also work, especially if you plan to stay on the island for awhile.
We hired the donkeys, and up the hill to St. George's Monastery we flew. Those donkeys had spunk. As we were loaded on them, the others in the corral started up such a fuss. We couldn't beleive it. They were mad that they didn't get to go. We didn't have to worry about our weight or how hard they were going to have to work, they practically ran the entire way. Too, too fun! At the top, we were unceremoniously unloaded, then into the monastery we wandered. As all Greek Orthodox churches, it was richly decorated with icons and gold paint, well worth it, but it doesn't take long. We walked back down the hill to the waiting carriage and finished our tour.
Back in town, the restaurant touts do everything they can to get you into their restaurant. We chose one on the seaside and had a great lunch of calamari and sea bass. We saw the ferry pull in and out we went. What a fun day.
Fish sandwiches – Near the Galata Bridge in Istanbul
For a true Istanbul'lu snack, head down to the ferry port in Eminonu. All year long, there are four or five boats docked there with huge grills on them, and on those grills are the tastiest fish to be found in Turkey. For 4 Tl. you can get a balik (fish) sandwich from the merrily costumed men that are moving too quickly to get a good photo of them. It's a little discombobulating to order your fish, because they are moving at lightning speed in order to keep up with the demand, but they will help you…albeit quickly.
All types of people are seated at the short table and stools, and all of them are interested in watching the yabanci (foreigner) try this delicacy. They will make sure that you put on the right amount of lemon juice and salt, and look on fondly as you enjoy it.
You can just sit there and have the other vendors round out your meal. There is the great lemonade, or the pickled turnip juice, or the honeyed warm donuts. You are welcome to try them all, but I can personally vouch for everything except the turnips. I still will have to work up some nerve for that one. At any rate, you can have more than a decent lunch for a mere 6 Tl. per person, and it's well worth it.
Turkish food is delicious! I don't think better chicken exists anywhere in the world…seriously. Have any dish with chicken, like a chicken sis (shish), and you will see.
Turkish breakfast is a smorgasbord of bread, tomatoes, cheese, olives, cucumbers, honey, and whatever else they have on hand.
Börek – different types. The cheese is usually sharp, so be careful about that, but the meat or potato ones are delicious.
The good thing about mezes is that they are usually on display so you can choose whatever looks good.
Note: If you go to the Hamdi Et Lokantasi (very close to the produce market outside of the Spice Market), try the meze here. BTW: Go at night…and go out on the balcony to take photos of the Bosphorus!
For a special treat you must try Lokum! … or Turkish Delight – Lots of different kinds. Clear has no cream, but the opaque is made with cream. I like the cream ones best, but they are all good. Watch out for the nuts. There are whole shops/cafes that serve Lokum. There is one on the road behind the Yeni Camii, heading up to Sultan Ahmet that I love going to. You can sit there and have tea and candy.
There are plenty of other things to do in Istanbul, plenty! But this will keep you busy for a couple of days, and really help you enjoy the wonder of Istanbul.
Getting to Istanbul from Ankara
We've heard numerous people tell us about the night train and what a great deal it was, 60 TL. each way; getting into the city in the morning, so you don't have to pay for another night's hotel or waste your daytime getting there. We decided to do it and booked tickets direct from the train station about a week before we were to leave. We were a little shocked that the cost was only 30 Tl., but figured that our mid-week tickets were making up the difference.
When we arrived at the station, we realized there were actually two options. One is the Anadolu Express, which we had booked, and the other the Ankara Express. The Anadolu costs half as much because you share your cabin with three other people, instead of just one. Also the Ankara has a small refrigerator that offers free snacks for the ride as well as your own sink for freshening up. I'm not sure, but I'm willing to bet the Ankara train has much cleaner bathrooms on it, too.
Our train was supposed to go out of track 2, according to the electronic signs, but actually went out of track 3. Good ol' Turkish directions…However, it did leave on time. We found our cabin and waited for the train to pull out so the car captain could give us our bedding, and we could call it a night.
This all transpired within the first half hour and we were blissfully sleeping by 10:30. We were woken up a few times in the night, once by a cat…who knows what that meant, but for the most part we slept until the morning when we had to pack up our things and get off. I definitely would recommend this mode of transport at least one way if traveling between Istanbul and Ankara. For a family, or if you are traveling with a group, the Anadolu is just fine, but if you want a few more amenities and fewer traveling companions, go with the Ankara.
How to get to the train stations:
In Ankara, the train leaves from the main station or "Gar". Very easy to get to, and of course every taxi driver knows the way. If you are downtown, say in Kizilay, it will cost about 10 tl. to get there.
In Istanbul, the train leaves from Haydirpasa. This is a bit trickier. If you are starting your trip here, you need to take the ferry (1.50 tl) from Eminonu to Haydirpasa (Kadakoy). The train station does have wi-fi and a restaurant for your waiting pleasure. The great thing is the ferry docks at the train station so either way, you are very close to your end destination, which is actually much easier than taking a bus.
Have you been to Istanbul? What were your favorite sights?

By Matthew Lau
Numerous parishes across the Archdiocese of Perth paid homage to their respective multi-cultural congregations on World Migrant and Refugee Sunday.
The annual celebration – this year celebrated on 26 August – saw parishioners donning their national clothing, as well as colours that represented the flags of their countries of origin.
Cathedral Dean Father Sean Fernandez celebrated the Migrant and Refugee Sunday 9.30am Mass at St Mary's Cathedral, assisted by Deacon Gregory Lowe.
On a brisk morning that coincided with the ever-popular City to Surf event, Dcn Lowe, who is the Director of the West Australian Catholic Migrant and Refugee Office, related the event to the Gospel reading of the day, John 6:60-69.
"The City to Surf has a definite route and a final destination, and the participants commit themselves not only to the journey but also to the finish point. Likewise, our spiritual pathway calls us to focus on Christ who is both the way and the end point for our lives," he said.
"We commit to following Christ's way – His mind and His heart – in our thoughts, words and deeds. And on this world day of migrants and refugees, this means being generous enough to meet Him in everyone we encounter, no matter who they are for this is a sure sign of Christian love."
Dcn Lowe used the analogy that the Christian life of holiness, like City to Surf, requires effort.
"We do this by recognising our limitations and our weaknesses before Christ and, in doing so, we are more ready to accept people just as they are no matter where they are from, for persistence in seeking Christ's aid for ourselves and those around us is Christian faith indeed," he continued.
"Notice that upon finishing the City to Surf, many a participant wears a smile, even as they stop to catch their breath," Dcn Lowe added.
"For us, this means knowing that following Christ is worth it to the end, and our joy is to catch our spiritual breath, often through prayer, knowing that it is the grace of Christ which alone enables us to remain generous, accepting and open to those around us no matter what language they speak – for our belief in the risen Christ and his grace is the great Christian hope."
He concluded by encouraging the congregation to ask for the grace to let God speak a new covenant language through them which, he said, is based on "the 'bread' of faith, hope, and love and is filled with the 'life' of goodness, beauty and truth".
St Thomas More Church, Bateman Parish, celebrated its third annual Migrant and Refugee Sunday in elaborate style with more than 700 parishioners in attendance for the 11am Mass and celebrations that followed.
The diverse parish – which boasts 69 nationalities among its parishioners – recited the Prayers of the Faithful, the Our Father, and various hymns in different languages.
After Mass, parishioners enjoyed an international feast of food with entertainment provided in the form of cultural dances and live music.

I Want To Start A New Habit – Anyone Want To Join In?26 Comments Posted in Personal Development
In one of my previous posts, I mentioned that you can make a big difference in your life by doing just one thing. The one thing is to gain positive habits and eliminate negative ones. It takes around 21 days of doing something consistently to gain a new habit and this means that you can get to gain 17 new habits in a year. How much difference would it make to your life if you gain 17 positive habits every year?
I Want To Have This Habit – Do You Want In?
I have some bad habits that I have gotten into and I want to replace them with positive ones. I plan to do this 21 days challenge on a consistent basis to accumulate good habits. The first habit that I would like to start with is waking up early.
I tend to work in the wee hours and it affected my sleeping pattern. Right now, I sleep more during the day and work more in the night. My mind feels foggy and I don't work well around 12 am to 4 am. My productivity has taken a hit due to this bad habit and I want to make things right.
I am a deep sleeper and my alarm clock seems to be just a display. Therefore, I need to sleep earlier than usual to allow myself to wake up naturally. I aim to wake up at 6 am every morning and I think this is the best time for me to exercise and work on my essential tasks that will help me move toward my goals.
I know the benefits of waking up early because I used to wake up at 6 am regularly and I seem to have enough time to exercise and work. It makes me feel good for the rest of my day too. Think about the benefits of waking up early for you.
You can use the extra hours to:
- Make yourself a good breakfast
- Meditate
- Work on your essential tasks
- Exercise
- Read books
- Learn a new skill
What we need to do in this 21 days challenge is to wake up at your specified time (mine is 6am) for 21 days straight. If you fail to do it for one day, you have to restart from day one. You can keep track of your habits by recording it down in a notebook or you can try out Habit Forge. Habit Forge is a free service and it helps you to keep track of your habits for 21 days.
I'm excited about starting this new habit because I know I am going to jog in the morning and use the extra hours to work on my niches sites. I will start this new habit on Monday and you can join me if you want to. You can choose to wake up even earlier than 6 am. It is your choice and you can choose the timing that works best for you. If you would like to join me, just write in a comment below stating that you want to join. It can help to keep us accountable for this challenge.
I may set up a Facebook page so that we would be able to keep track of everyone in the challenge. It will be sort of like a support group to push each other to forward. That would be all and drop me a comment to let me know if you are joining me.
P.S: Check out the HMS Facebook page. We will be using this page to track our 21 days challenge. See you on the inside. Click here to go to the HMS Facebook page.

I'm in. Over the past several years, I've gained way too much weight. It's now time to lose many of the excess pounds, in part, by going to my health club at least three days every week. That's the new habit I want. Thanks, Vincent, for all of your useful tips.
My shop starts at 6 am and I used to get up at 4 with time to get everything lined up for the day but lately it`s been right at 5:30 with just enough time to get to work and i hate that, I`ll also join you guys , my wake time will be 4 am, good luck to us all and thanks for the challange
I want to join
my cigarette smoking . i just don't knowhow to stay stop smoking.so i need to stop a new habit which will he;p me to stop smoking or reduce it.
count me in…vincent…and thanks it seems lyk whenever i m in need of something..everytime i get a article from ur side…….
Lately, I have been over-sleeping regularly.
At times, I have been sleeping untill 9 am.
If theres one habit that can bring profound change in my life, it is waking up early.
I have been wanting to develop this habit from few months now, but due to lack of motivation, i never got started.
But this sounds like a good idea, and 6 am is great for me
Thanks Vincent
I do waking up early for most of the days, around 7-8am, 😀
This was the practice I train myself months ago, and it goes well. When everyone probably still asleep, I can sit in silence and write my sphere of silence(diary type) reviewing myself, what I had done yesterday, and what I can do better today, what's my plan for today, and what's my target for the coming weeks, coming months, and year.
It's a silence way of talk to myself, what's there that I can improve and should do better on today that can makes me better than my yesterday.
It works well and I have practice it for months and it goes well. 😀
Spend half to one hour to take control the remaining 23 hours of the day, instead of "just another day". 🙂
Jia Jun´s last blog post ..Life Sucks Who Are You Compare Your Life With
Fantastic idea! I'm in and 6am sounds great!
Hi Vincent,
I will try this too!! Wonderful idea.

|Visitor Count doesn't match Hits on article
I had setup the Visitor Counter on a website about three weeks back and removed the old extension which was reporting incorrectly. The new counter also seems to have issues which I am unable to explain to end user. The Total Visitor count for yesterday 23 Oct is 17 but the end user added two articles yesterday afternoon whose hit counter shows 59 hits since the article was published. There could be a minor timing gap between counter clock and Joomla timing (not sure if both of them use the same 24 hour cycle).
Can you kindly explain why the disparity? I am unable to explain it. If you need I can give you site's admin user/pass.

|Re: Visitor Count doesn't match Hits on article
Hi Amal,
here you wrote about two different topics.
Starting with the Timing: the Counter use the time from database. The Timezone-Setting PHP/DB should be the same ( ). But I assume this is not the problem for the amount of visitors.
Is my followig understanding of the problem correct:
- the day before yesterday : 59 total visitors
- yesterday : 17 total visitors
This can't be
Or is it a misunderstanding by me and you mean ? :
- yesterday (morning ?) : 17 total
- yesterday afternoon : 59 total
This can be. Why not ?
The "counter" count visitors as new "if a locktime" is over (or per day). The default Mode is "Locktime" with 15min ( often this is tooo short, my setting is 45 min ). If you visit the page and make a Browser-Refresh, the counter should not increased within this time ( of course other vistors in parallel can cause an increment ). If the counter directly increase, then try to set "Behind Proxy = Yes" (be carefully!). You should also set "Use Cookies = Yes" if not already on "Yes".
Of course the counter also count "Bots" if it's not configured to filter it. "Autofilter Robots" should be set on "Yes". But this not contains all existing Bots and therefore you can/should add some additional of it ( in config or within a file ) ( see also ).
( some Bots check each half hour my website )
Additional you can set the "User-Filter" to "Members" ( I use this ). With this you can filter members ( of course after first login ).
At least it is possible to have a look into the database to see "who" was on the page. Set the parameter "Store User-Agent" to "Yes". After a while the database table can be "checked".
A question related to the general configuration: there are one write- and one readonly- counter configured ?

|Re: Visitor Count doesn't match Hits on article
Quick reply, your understanding is NOT what I was saying. I will explain again:
Visitor Counter for Yesterday = 17
Joomla article CREATED YESTERDAY (new article) Hit counter (as checked in Article Manager of Joomla) = 59
For same day how can an article have 59 hits but total visitor counter for the whole day is just 17. That is the question.
My Locktime is 60 minutes. I will answer your other questions after rechecking my configuration.

|Re: Visitor Count doesn't match Hits on article
Hi Amal,
ah.. so I completely misunderstand you
What you describe can be ok. I assume the Joomla-Page-Counter is a simple HIT-Counter. Each "hit" increase the value ( also F5, or back<->forward, ... ).
The counter is NOT a simple Hit-Counter ( it can be ) . The counter increase only after 60 minutes for same visitor, so it counts "unique" users ( what we mostly want ) and not simple hits.
Is it what you meant ?

Hi Amal,
yes, compare with other tools can be a good thing for tuning the settings. I compared my counter-setting on my page with "Piwik" and it was 95% same ( I no longer use piwik, to much data ).
But.. I need to be sure about your configuration.
I forgot my question for you from above comment : " A question related to the general configuration: there are one write- and one readonly- counter configured ? "
Where you placed the counter modul which count the pages (write-counter) ? Within the footer which is shown on each page ?
Have in mind, the counter counts only if it is "executed / called". Therefore the write-counter-modul must shown (executed) on each page (there is no need that a view is activated on it).
Another test which you can do would be to create a counter-modul for the "issued page". You create a new counter-modul and set a new different table-name (!very important!) and let show this counter only within the page you need to count ( e.g. with {loadposition xx} ). So you can directly compare and try some settings with the joomla-hit-counter..
( e.g. so the works , the are Counter-Views on it )
You can also make some screenshots of counter settings.. ( if this not help, we can also use the mentioned temp-account ).

|Re: Visitor Count doesn't match Hits on article
Hi Amal,
yes.. you have configured only one write-counter which also shown the "values". This counter is placed within the footer and so it should be executed each time.
I wondered why you not created a special counter-view (read-only-mode) for it which is show e.g. in case if the admin login into the frontend. But for now, I see no problem with the counter self. You can do some fine tuning, e.g. disable "Create table" - this avoids the "exist table check", which is not necessary after first call of counter. Also "Auto Filter Robots" should set on "Yes".
I also checked the Joomla-Page-Hit-Counter feature.. as I expeceted each page-visit/page-reload/view of article/.. increase the hit count. So, my short visit increased the amount of hits to "plus 5". The counter of course was not increased.
The creation of mentioned Test-Counter ( direct Page-Counter ) is quiet easy .. no code change is necessary of course. It works similar to creation counter-views for the write counter, with exception that you create new write-counters and set new/own data-table and "not existing module position" (loadpos).
Modul Creation:
- create new counter modul :
-- 1) joomla "new" ( or copy )
-- 2) or two if you want to test/compare "normal counter behavior" vs. "hit counter configuration" (locktime=0) on same article
- set own table name for it/ each of them :
-- 1) eg. vvistcount3042
-- 2) and/or for second hit-counter on same page vvisthit3042
- set the lock-times you need, e.g. :
-- 1) 60
-- 2) 0
- activate/deactiovate the views what you want to show: think only the counter-value is needed
- set Joomla Modul Position for the modul(s) to a none existing "name" : e.g same as table name :
-- 1) vvistcount3042
-- 2) vvisthit3042
- recheck whether the rights of the modul are ok ( all users, each page )
=> what happen:
with own/new table-name you configure the counter to create a new/own data-table and use this as "base". This is exclusive used by this counter modul.
Be aware: counter tables are never deleted automaticly. If you no longer need data within this tables, you have to drop this with e.g. phpmyadmin.
Update Article :
- add within the article which you want to count the following :
{loadposition counterPosName} , e.g {loadposition vvistcount3042} / {loadposition vvisthit3042}
( see also : )
Thats it
I can prepare this for you if you want
PS.: you can also configure a szenario where is nothing shown within the article self, the counter only counts but no views are "on". But then you need to configure addtional counter-views to can see the counter-values. I assume this would be "to much" for now

Soichiro Honda established Honda Motor Co., Ltd., on September 24, 1948, in Itaya-cho, Hamamatsu, with capital of 1 million yen. In October of the following year, Takeo Fujisawa, who became Soichiro Honda's lifetime partner came aboard as managing director.
The two aimed to build the company into the world's top motorcycle maker. That goal was realized through the sale of the Super Cub C100 in August 1958.
Since the company's foundation, Honda has always conducted its business with an awareness of the global nature of its operations. Guided by an approach of "building products close to the customer" and striving for the timely offering of products that accommodate the needs of customers all around the world, Honda expanded its automobile production operations to different regions of the world including Asia, Europe, South America and China. In recent years, Honda has been pursuing the establishment of a flexible and mutually complementary production system which utilizes Honda's 34 automobile production operations in 18 countries and territories. Through these initiatives, Honda reached the 100 million-unit milestone in cumulative automobile production in September 2016, the 54th year since the company started automobile production. Also motorcycle and power products production will add to more than 560 million-unit in cumulative for Honda's worldwide production.

Discussion in 'Software Releases' started by ingoreis, Jan 8, 2013.
Wow! thanks a lot! "Unterwegs ins Duesterburg" finally works! It's a great german rpg.
the new Version work much much better,thx fpr releasing it.
Only gaming Problem for me is that i cannot hold a Key for example holding the Shield here.
The key is very short pressed in the Game but i hold it.
Thx for doing that,will experiment with more Games soon
Hi. I'm one of the EasyRPG devs.
If you are interested we can provide an automatic build system for the Pandora port, then you can always get up-to-date releases. We already provide this service alredy for (more or less) common platforms like Android, GCW-Zero and Wii as you can see in our download section
But this requires that we get step-to-step instructions how to:
- setup the toolchain
- which commands were used to build liblcf, Player
- how to generate the pnd.
I actually already tried this months ago, but always failed because of segfaulting compilers, outdated (2011) compilers or broken libc includes.
That is nice offer.
Unfortunately, I compile natively on the pandora.
The command were fairly standard. No black magic needed for liblcf or Player.
I will probably try to configure a bit to personalize action buttons if I can, but that's all.
My toolchain is indeed outdated, but this one is newer : http://boards.openpandora.org/topic/7147-crosscompiler-toolchain-based-on-openpandoraorg-ipks/
Wow one of the EasyRPG Developers here??
What for an Honor
Downloaded Yesterday a Bunch of RPGMaker2000/2003 Games and more Testing
come soon
A building Machine is a very nice offer,unfortunaly i have not the Knowledge to help here but a maybe important Question:
Is it possible to build Timidi inside your PND too Ptitseb?
I can probably Ingoreis. Do you have an example game where music is missing?
Okay, in that case I can only provide you some patches that we apply for the Windows and Android version that fix problems with the audio playback.
Maybe it makes sense that you backport them until SDL2 releases a new version...
https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/5da12bedaace - Very important! Without this patch midi files have the wrong speed
https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL_mixer/rev/9599bb0ff844 - Very important! Fixes random crashes when playing audio
https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL_mixer/rev/b9ed366f0154 - Nice to have! Support playback of more wave files
Ok. I'll apply those patches this weekend (no wifi here for the week).
THX for that Patches.
I have tried about 15 Games and only 4 a running.
The others have all the Error:
Could not find Database File!
Have you maybe a hint for solvin that?
Sometimes a Music Format is not supported,maybe the Patches solve that
I suggest that you test the game under Windows or Linux if there is the same problem.
The Player also writes a logfile in the game directory. My guess is that the detected encoding is wrong (RPG Maker is a non-unicode program that means the games use the local codepage of Windows. So we try guessing the correct codepage for translating to unicode.). Maybe you can tell game names and paste the line containing the encoding.
Some games also have hacks that patch stuff in the RPG_RT.exe, this is of course unsupported. Some games also rename the RPG_RT.ldb to something else (and hex edit the name in RPG_RT.exe). If the file is really missing the Player won't work.
Other games change e.g. the header magic from "LcfDataBase" to something else (to prevent opening it in the editor...), we are already ignoring the magic because it broke too many games -.-
Ah interrresting Answer,thx for that
Maybe i can make some Games combatible with Rehexing.
Another interresting Question for EasyRPG:
Some Games dont need the RTP Officially,is there a Way to play some of these Games without RTP on EasyRPG?
When yes can we maybe Package some wonderfull RPGs like the Zelda Game from my Video as PND To play out of the Box without copying that Copyrightet RTPs
Edit: It work without the runtime Package,cooool
Hi sorry for the Doublepost but i figured out that you
in this Version even Directorienames with Spaces in it not work.
After a little Renaming Directories here work 9 from 10 Games here and thats Wonderfull ^_^
See here Lufia Iduras Revenge in German on the Openpandora and Ptitsebs EasyRPG Port.
Yehaah i love easyRPG
(and i found out that MP3 Playback dont work on the Pandora with EasyRPG)
@ingoreis: the space in name iscertainly my launch script, I'll fix taht.
For MP3 and co, I have to integrate the diff to SDL2 & SDL_mixer first, and than it should work better. I'll try to update the port soon.
Thx for doing That ^_^
Here is another interessting Game:
On the same link as before, you can find an updated PND of Easy RPG Player.
I have updated the sources to latest git, and enabled music using fluidsynth.
Because Fluidsynth is huge ressource hog, I had to hack a few things. So I remove some CPU hungry treatement, and lower sample freq to 22kHz (instead of 44kHz). On my Gigahertz, it seems ok now with Midi sounds..
To be tested....
This new Version work Genious here.
All Music Play fine without extra installing Timidity and all Games i tested worked realy good
Version posted on the Repo...
Hey ptitSeb, any chance of for configurable buttons? Eg though a config file in the appdata?
B as main button drives me mad.
Next i wonder if you could include the RTP, its needed anyway for most random downloads so why not add it as default.
Not sure if there is a rights problem but there are free recreations of the RTP which can be used.
B as main is not good? You would prefer X?
RTP cannot be redistribute, so I cannot embed it.
Separate names with a comma.

July 3, 2019
Parkland's Outpatient Antibiotic Therapy (OPAT) program is proving that healthcare can be delivered in a way that improves the health of the population while decreasing costs. Since 2009, the program has trained patients to safely administer their own an IV antibiotics at home in an effort to reduce hospital stays and improve their experience.
Before the OPAT program, when a patient developed an infection that required IV antibiotic therapy, they spent at least 42 days in Parkland hospital. The assumption was that patients requiring IV therapy could not manage their own care. With the OPAT program, patients who have responded well to their antibiotic therapy in the hospital have been trained by their care team to administer their own treatment at home and are discharged within one week.
"We proved that the idea that all innovation has to be tech heavy is just not true. OPAT is all about self-sufficiency, self-advocacy and investing in the human potential of our patients," explained Kavita Bhavan, MD, Medical Director of the Infectious Diseases OPAT Clinic at Parkland and Assistant Professor of Internal Medicine at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center.
In its first four years, OPAT patients had a 47% lower 30-day readmission rate than insured patients who had the help of an at-home nurse. This also opened 28,000 additional hospital bed days while avoiding $40 million in costs.
The OPAT program is being used as a model to create new programs for patients to manage their care in the comfort of their homes. Two new programs include:
"In healthcare, we rarely see consumer research about what patients want," said Dr. Bhavan. "When OPAT patients were asked why they think they had better outcomes than patients with home health nurses, they said 'because it's my body'. There's something really profound about that."
What's being developed at Parkland is not just for the most vulnerable in our community. The OPAT program is an example of innovation born out of necessity. Training and educating patients through programs like OPAT creates the groundwork for more equitable and efficient healthcare delivery nationwide.

Driving on Gratiot headed toward Mt. Elliott Street, I was in the heart of downtown Detroit, just a mile or so away from Ford Field. It seems only small businesses are here, a Mr. Fish and a crowded shop selling second hand furniture, likely for a charity. In this place on this map, blocks of the grid are disappearing. Fallow fields sit waiting in their place. I pulled up to a bright brick church anchored strong amidst open green plots and dilapidated, boarded-up structures. There is a man sitting on a milkcrate. He is sentinel of this corner.
Expanding the Scope of Practice: How University of Michigan Medical School is Training Medical Doctors to Have a Deeper Understanding of Complementary and Alternative Medicine
Every July the University of Michigan Medical School ushers in a new class of future physicians. Those students spend a week in September scattered across the area visiting, conversing, observing, and receiving treatments from holistic practitioners to learn about healthcare from their perspectives.
Therapeutic Breathwork Training (a story)
I re-experienced my own birth the other day, for the third time in a week. I was in Milwaukee, at Transformations, Inc., with Jim Morningstar, a dedicated and compassionate psychotherapist, breath coach, writer, and Therapeutic Breathwork teacher. Sitting in Jim's comfortable office, after a week of intensive breathwork training and experience, we began the session by talking about what I would like to focus on. I asked for inner child work.
More Than Just an Exercise: Learning to Breathe with Yoga
By Tatiana Knight | Photos by Tobi Hollander
When yoga became famous in the 60's in the U.S., it was an esoteric set of poses and breathing exercises to aid meditation. It was initially presented as a map to living our lives by following a kind of yogic 10 Commandments. Not very many people knew about yoga, and those who did were not "normal," but considered hippies or society's outliers.
Threading the Eye of the Needle: Navigating Through the World of Conventional and Alternative Medicine

In the past four years, I've had two serious medical crises that required a choice of how to treat these conditions — using conventional medical treatments or alternative approaches, or some combination of both.
Fresh Air for a Fresh Start
By Melissa Sargent
We've packed up the holiday decorations, our house guests have all gone home, and we are ready to take on our new year's resolutions. A little power cleaning and a few sprays of a fresh scent might seem like a great way to start anew. But before you pull out the disinfectant or plug in the pine mountain scent, think about what may be sealed up inside the house with you and your family.
The Healing Power of the Right Relationship: How Elizabeth Shadigian, M.D., and WomanSafeHealth Are Raising the Standards for Women's Health Care
By Rachel Pastiva | Photos by Rachel Pastiva, Miriam Holzman & Karina Oganyan
I've known for a long time that I'm disillusioned by our medical establishment. What I didn't realize until recently was just how much. Like many people, I suffer from chronic health issues that traditional doctors don't seem to have the time to address, nor the interest in doing so. I thought I was taking my health into my own hands by seeking alternative health care practitioners, but found the same pressed-for-time, distant attitude that ultimately left me financially and emotionally destitute.

I'm sure like all of us. your city is routed mostly by its streets. Each one named, but why that name? 1,607 Canadian communities have a Main St. The number one though is 2nd street with 2,022. Whooda Thunk? What about all the other street names. would they probably have a window into local history, from every different layer of a city's past.
The city I have chosen for my first Whoo-da -Thunk? is Hamilton Ontario
George Hamilton (1788–1836) was a Canadian merchant and politician, who founded the city of Hamilton, Ontario.
Hamilton, Ontario, incorporated as a city in 1846 with a population 6,832. Population is now 747,545. Feb 8, 2017
And the street I chose Aberdeen. So let start at the very beginning and follow the yellow brick road…..Here we go,,,
Nature provides the wherewithal for Aberdeenshire's "water of life". Whether it's the toasted barley from the fertile farmlands, the ice-clear mountain water from burns and springs, the smoky peats and heather honey from heath and moors, or simply the sparkling fresh air – the whisky distilleries are busy bottling the essence of this beautiful place.
Ava Gardner
"I wish to live to 150 years old, but the day I die, I wish it to be with a cigarette in one hand and a glass of whiskey in the other."
Lord John Hamilton-Gordon : 1st Marquess of Aberdeen and Temair
Aberdeen Ave in Hamilton Ontario, was named after Lord John Hamilton-Gordon, 1st Marquess of Aberdeen and Temair) & Lady Aberdeen, Ishbel Hamilton-Gordon, Marchioness of Aberdeen and Temair). They lived in Hamilton on Bay Street South (1890-1898) with their four children. They presided over the opening of the Hamilton Public Library on September 16, 1890.Lord Aberdeen was appointed Governor General of Canada in 1893

- The Gel Exalt 4 is a running shoe that is made for the roads. It is an update to one of Asics' prominent stability shoes, the Gel Exalt 3. When it comes to design, the 4th iteration is wholly different from its predecessor as it doesn't have a bevy of stitched-on overlays; instead, it employs an uncluttered façade consisting of a breathable mesh and printed overlays.
- The midsole unit is made up of a full-length foam for full-bodied support, a shock-attenuating GEL® unit in the rear, a thermoplastic foundation in the midfoot, and a dual-density medial layer that corrects excessive inward rolling of the foot. A proprietary rubber compound protects the platform from wear and tear.
The Asics Gel Exalt 4 was designed to be true to size, though it is worth noting that several consumers claimed that it was half-a-size to a full size smaller than the usual. Trying on this shoe may help in getting a pleasant experience. When it comes to width, the available options are D – Medium for men and B – Medium for women.
The outsole unit of the Asics Gel Exalt 4 utilizes the AHAR® or Asics High Abrasion Rubber, which is a sturdy compound that acts as a shield against the debilitating nature of the surfaces. It is also responsible for providing traction, thereby making the movement as accessible as possible.
The forefoot and heel have flex grooves. These shallow horizontal trenches are meant to make the platform flexible, thus helping the foot to achieve natural progression of the step.
Same as the popular Asics GT 1000 7, the midsole unit of the Asics Gel Exalt 4 features a full-length SpEVA® foam, which is an energy-returning piece that invigorates the running output. It has a sturdy construction to prevent it from breaking down quickly.
The heel part of the midsole has a GEL® cushioning unit. This silicon-based piece is responsible for attenuating impact shock during the foot-strike, giving the foot comfort as it lands on the ground.
DuoMax® is a dual-density foam incorporated into the medial side of the platform. The purpose of this technology is to support the arch and prevent overpronated foot motion.
The Trusstic System® is a thermoplastic piece placed in the midfoot section of the platform. The purpose of this add-on is to support the tendons and muscles of the foot-pad, saving them from strain during movement. Those who have medical conditions of the underfoot such as plantar fasciitis may find this system to be helpful in staving off discomfort.
An Ortholite® sockliner is placed on top of the primary cushioning layout, and it's meant to add some more support for the foot. It also has antimicrobial and anti-moisture capacities that maintain a clean and healthy in-shoe environment.
Two types of mesh are used on the upper unit of the Asics Gel Exalt 4. While the rear and midfoot employ a close-weave variant for added security, the forefoot utilizes an option that has a noticeably open construction. The visible pores accommodate air into the foot-chamber.
The midfoot has securing panels made of thin synthetic material. These sidewalls are meant to help the rest of the upper and the lacing system in locking the foot in place.
The padded tongue and collar prevent in-shoe wobbling and accidental shoe removals.

Do you use silicone muffin or cake pans? I just bought a silicone muffin pan (6 muffins) and have a few questions.
Do you take them out hot or let them cool a little or all the way?
From what I've read online, some people spray them first, but isn't the purpose of using silicone is because it doesn't stick?
I've done 2 different types of muffins so far. The first was a traditional blueberry muffin...I tried to pop them out like the directions say, but they didn't want to pop and half of them tore. I couldn't use them for the guests. This morning I sprayed the pan then baked the pecan pie muffins in them (filled them only about half way) and after cooling for a few minutes they did pop out.
What's your experience?

The American Academy of Pediatrics and other healthcare organizations recommend breastfeeding as the best means for infant feeding. While bottle feeding can supply the nutrition necessary for a baby's healthy development, breastfeeding also provides emotional benefits for both baby and mother.
But there might be an obstacle in a baby's mouth that prevents them from getting a good seal on the mother's breast nipple—a small band of tissue called a frenum. This term describes any tissue that connects a soft part of the mouth like the upper lip or tongue to a more rigid structure like the gums or the floor of the mouth, respectively.
Although a normal part of anatomy, frenums that are too short, thick or inelastic can restrict a baby's lip or tongue movement and prevent an adequate seal while nursing. The baby may adjust by chewing rather than sucking on the nipple. Besides a painful experience for the mother, the baby may still not receive an adequate flow of breast milk.
Bottle-feeding is an option since it may be easier for a baby with abnormal frenums to negotiate during nursing. But the problem might also be alleviated with a minor surgical procedure to snip the frenum tissue and allow more freedom of movement.
Often performed in the office, we would first numb the frenum and surrounding area with a topical anesthetic, sometimes accompanied by injection into the frenum if it's abnormally thick. After the numbing takes effect, we gently expose the tissue and cut it with either surgical scissors or a laser, the latter of which may involve less bleeding and discomfort. The baby should be able to nurse right away.
If you wait later to undergo the procedure, the baby may already have developed compensation habits while nursing. It may then be necessary for a lactation consultant to help you and your baby "re-learn" normal nursing behavior. It's much easier, therefore, to attempt this procedure earlier rather than later to avoid extensive re-training.
While there's little risk, frenum procedures are still minor surgery. You should, therefore, discuss your options completely with your dental provider. Treating an abnormal frenum, though, could be the best way to realize the full benefits of breastfeeding.
If you would like more information on treating tongue or lip ties, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation.
While dental diseases tend to be a greater concern as we get older, they also pose a potential threat to children. A particular type of tooth decay called early childhood caries (ECC) can severely damage children's unprotected teeth and skew their normal dental development.
Fortunately, you can protect your child's teeth from disease with a few simple practices. First and foremost: start a hygiene habit as soon as possible to remove disease-causing bacterial plaque. You don't have to wait until teeth appear, either: simply wipe the baby's gums with a clean wet cloth after nursing to minimize the growth of oral bacteria.
When their teeth do begin to erupt, you can switch to brushing (you can add flossing as more teeth erupt—but until the child shows appropriate dexterity, you'll need to do it for them). For infants, brush gently but thoroughly with a soft-bristled brush and a smear of fluoride toothpaste. When they grow older you can increase the toothpaste to a pea-sized amount. And as soon as you can, get them involved with learning to perform these vital habits on their own.
You should also limit your child's consumption of sugar. Our favorite carbohydrate is also a favorite of bacteria, who consume any remnants in dental plaque as a primary food source. So, keep sugary snacks and foods to a minimum and limit them mainly to mealtimes. And don't put a baby to sleep with a bottle filled with a liquid containing sugar (including formula and breastmilk).
Finally, begin taking your child to the dentist regularly by their first birthday for routine cleanings and checkups. Besides removing any hard to reach plaque, your dentist may also apply sealants and topical fluoride to help protect and strengthen tooth enamel. Regular visits make it more likely to detect the early signs of decay, before it does extensive damage. And beginning early makes it less likely your child will develop a fear of dental visits that could carry on into adulthood.
These and other steps will go a long way in protecting your child's teeth and gums so they develop normally. A little prevention and protection will help ensure a happy, healthy smile later in life.
If you would like more information on helping your child develop healthy teeth and gums, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Top 10 Oral Health Tips for Children."
There's a potential threat lurking in your young child's mouth—tooth decay. This destructive disease can not only rob them of teeth now, it could also impact their dental health long into their adult years.
That's why we focus heavily on decay prevention measures even in primary ("baby") teeth, as well as early treatment should it still occur. It's a straightforward treatment strategy: minimize the factors that contribute to disease and maximize those that protect against it.
We can represent the disease-causing factors with the acronym BAD. Bad bacteria top the list: they produce oral acid that erodes tooth enamel. Couple that with an Absence of healthy saliva function, necessary for acid neutralization, and you have the potential opening for tooth decay. Poor Dietary habits that include too much added sugar (a prime food source for bacteria) and acidic foods help fuel the decay process.
But there are also SAFE factors that can help counteract the BAD. Promoting better Saliva function helps control acid levels, while Sealants applied to chewing surfaces strengthen these vulnerable areas against decay. We can prescribe Antimicrobials in the form of mouth rinses that reduce abnormally high bacterial concentrations. Fluoride applied directly to the enamel bolsters its mineral content. And an Effective diet high in nutrition and low in sugar or acidic foods rounds out our protective measures.
Promoting SAFE factors greatly reduces the risk of childhood tooth decay. To keep on track it's important to start regular, six-month dental visits beginning around your child's first birthday. These visits are the most important way to take advantage of prevention measures like sealants or topical fluoride, as well as keeping an eye out for any signs of decay.
And what you do at home is just as important. Besides providing a teeth-friendly diet, you should also brush and floss your child's teeth every day, teaching them to do it for themselves when they're old enough. Playing it "SAFE" with your child's dental health will help ensure your child's teeth stay decay-free.
If you would like more information on dental care for your child, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Taking the Stress out of Dentistry for Kids."
When your baby's first teeth come in, you might not think it necessary yet to worry about tooth decay. But even infants can develop this common dental disease. In fact, it has a specific name in children 6 and under: early childhood caries (ECC).
About one-fourth of U.S. children have ECC, and poor or minority children are at highest risk. Because of primary ("baby") teeth's thin enamel layer, ECC can spread to healthier teeth with unnerving speed, causing extensive damage.
While such damage immediately affects a child's nutrition, speech development and self-esteem, it could also impact their future oral health. Permanent teeth often erupt out of position because of missing primary teeth lost prematurely, creating a poor bite. And children with ECC are more likely to have cavities in their future permanent teeth.
While there are a number of effective treatments for repairing ECC-caused damage, it's best to try to prevent it before damage occurs. A large part of prevention depends on you. You should, for example, begin oral hygiene even before teeth come in by wiping their gums with a clean, damp cloth after feeding. After teeth appear, switch to daily brushing with just a smear of toothpaste.
Because refined sugar is a primary food source for decay-causing bacteria, you should limit it in their diet. In the same vein, avoid sleep-time bottles with fluids like juices, milk or formula. As they grow older, make sure snacks are also low in sugar.
You should also avoid spreading your own oral bacteria to your baby. In this regard, don't put their eating utensils or pacifier in your mouth and don't drink from the same cup. Avoid kissing your baby on the lips. And above all, take care of your own oral health to prevent your own encounter with dental disease.
Finally, start regular dental visits on or before your baby's first birthday. Regular cleanings and checkups increase the chances for early decay detection, as well as provide for treatments and prevention measures that can reduce the disease's spread and destruction.
ECC can be devastating to both your baby's current and future dental health. But with vigilance and good dental practices, you may be able to help them avoid this serious disease.
If you would like more information on tooth decay prevention in young children, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation.
Cavities can happen even before a baby has his first piece of candy. This was the difficult lesson actor David Ramsey of the TV shows Arrow and Dexter learned when his son DJ's teeth were first emerging.
"His first teeth came in weak," Ramsey recalled in a recent interview. "They had brown spots on them and they were brittle." Those brown spots, he said, quickly turned into cavities. How did this happen?
Ramsey said DJ's dentist suspected it had to do with the child's feedings — not what he was being fed but how. DJ was often nursed to sleep, "so there were pools of breast milk that he could go to sleep with in his mouth," Ramsey explained.
While breastfeeding offers an infant many health benefits, problems can occur when the natural sugars in breast milk are left in contact with teeth for long periods. Sugar feeds decay-causing oral bacteria, and these bacteria in turn release tooth-eroding acids. The softer teeth of a young child are particularly vulnerable to these acids; the end result can be tooth decay.
This condition, technically known as "early child caries," is referred to in laymen's terms as "baby bottle tooth decay." However, it can result from nighttime feedings by bottle or breast. The best way to prevent this problem is to avoid nursing babies to sleep at night once they reach the teething stage; a bottle-fed baby should not be allowed to fall asleep with anything but water in their bottle or "sippy cup."
Here are some other basics of infant dental care that every parent should know:
- Wipe your baby's newly emerging teeth with a clean, moist washcloth after feedings.
- Brush teeth that have completely grown in with a soft-bristled, child-size toothbrush and a smear of fluoride toothpaste no bigger than a grain of rice.
- Start regular dental checkups by the first birthday.
