Battle Underway to Save Ft. Sam Library
The battle is on to save the Campbell Memorial Library at Fort Sam Houston, which is set to be closed as part of military budget cuts ordered by the Obama Administration, 1200 WOAI news reports.
The Campbell Library was named in honor of Spec. Keith Campbell, who was killed in Vietnam which saving his fellow soldiers. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross.
His sister, Judy Campbell, says talk of closing the library is devastating. She says not only is it her brother's legacy to the Army, but miltiary post libraries are frequently used.
"450 customers use the library each day for mandatory training, on line resources, and print materials that are required for class work," she said.
She says there is nothing 'surplus' about a library on a busy military post like Fort Sam.
"This about his brothers, his brothers past, present, and future," she said. "We should be providing more for them, not taking things away from them."

Renfroe Tosses Shutout as Tennessee Downs USC 5-0
May 9, 2013
LEXINGTON, Ky. – A quality pitching effort from Ellen Renfroe and a two-hit, two-run day at the plate by Raven Chevanne helped guide No. 2 seed Tennessee to a 5-0 shutout of No. 10 seed South Carolina in the final quarterfinal matchup of the Southeastern Conference Tournament on Thursday at John Cropp Stadium.
The Lady Volunteers advance to the semifinals and will meet No. 3 seed Missouri at 3:30 p.m. ET. The game will air live on ESPNU.
Tennessee jumped out to an early 3-0 lead in the opening frame and that would be all the damage it would need en route to the win. The Lady Vols were led by Chevanne at the dish with a 2-for-4 day which included a pair of runs scored. UT also generated a tally in both the third and fifth innings to make the final margin.
Renfroe was dominant in the circle with a complete-game shutout. She notched six strikeouts, while yielding just four hits and one walk.
The semifinal matchups begin with No. 1 Florida taking on No. 5 Georgia at 1 p.m. ET. Tennessee and Missouri will meet following the conclusion of that contest.

"Inspect and adapt" is one of the key agile practices, but not all agile teams perform it well. Here, Raja Bavani has a new spin on an old idea. Let's learn with Raja as he explains his secret sauce.
How do we learn? This is one of the seemingly simple but important questions you and your team members need to ask yourselves and think through. We are professionals—obviously, we know why we learn and what to learn. However, many of us seldom think enough about how we learn.
Listen to Yourself
This is not a question that comes to you from an external source, such as one of your team members or someone who is authorized to assess your performance. You should be asking yourself this question. Most of us are good at writing a bulleted list of three to five items to help, such as reading, attending training programs, discussing with team members, problem solving, and watching videos. When we do this it is imperative to go further and ask, "Did I do any of these during the recent six or twelve months? Or is this just a wish list or something that happened a long ago?" It is imperative because it helps you validate and revise the items in your list. Try this in your next team meeting or coaching session.
Learning is a lifelong process. We put ourselves on the path to success when we know our primary and secondary modes of learning and use those again and again to better ourselves. This holds good for all of those who are involved in agile projects, but especially for team members.
According to management consultant Peter Drucker, self-knowledge enables you to understand your way of learning. Some of us learn by reading, participating in discussions, attending training programs, watching and observing the happenings around us, exploring and experimenting, practicing, or on-the-job experience. According to the 70/20/10 formula, which is a concept developed by Morgan McCall, Robert W. Eichinger, and Michael M. Lombardo at the Center for Creative Leadership, 70 percent of learning happens through practice, hands-on experience, or problem solving; 20 percent of learning happens when we work with experts or coaches, observe them, and listen to their feedback; and 10 percent of learning comes from formal training.
An Opportunity to Learn
We are no longer part of a traditional waterfall world where we wait until the end of every project to reflect and learn something. We are in an iterative and incremental world with an abundance of opportunity to learn, apply what we learn, improve, and ensure that we're putting the lessons learned into practice in order to deliver meaningful solutions to our customers. This is an opportunity we had never chosen to leverage systematically in the past.
We now can learn from day-to-day work experience, team retrospectives, and customer feedback. We can gain maximum benefits from this opportunity when each of us answers the question 'How do I learn?' with conviction.
Walking the Talk
Whether you and the rest of your agile team are "walking the talk" is determined by how all of you learn what you learn and apply those lessons learned at regular intervals.
Agile methods nurture perpetual learning and sharing among team members. This is a step above self-learning because it requires open communication, trust, collaboration, and sharing. This happens inside your team.
An agile effort requires adequate comfort and courage in order to ask questions, share ideas, and understand various points of view from all team members. It does not encourage or provide long bouts of solitude. It is rooted in teamwork and collaboration.
Perpetual learning in a group setting is a necessary factor for the progress of agile teams. Group learning and collaborative learning are among the effective ways agile teams learn. Action orientation is what maximizes learning and transforms knowledge into action.
Action Orientation
The first step is to learn from your daily experience, team interaction, and retrospectives. The next step is to apply what you learned as early as you can. This is what helps you improve. This requires collective decision making and action orientation, which is just getting things done. This is, again, a collaborative team activity. A fine balance between people orientation and task orientation is what enables agile teams to put into practice what they learn from iteration to iteration. It is easier said than done. It requires a lot of teamwork and collaborative spirit. A good source about how to turn team retrospectives into meaningful actions is the book Agile Retrospectives: Making Good Teams Great by Esther Derby and Diana Larsen. Action orientation and timely course correction ensure positive reinforcement in agile teams. Positive reinforcement enhances team satisfaction and reflects in throughput and quality. This leads to customer satisfaction.
When learning is ineffective or action orientation is absent, agile teams find it unfulfilling or demotivating moving from iteration to iteration. That is not a good sign. It causes diminishing results. Without effective retrospectives, agile teams have trouble maintaining their agility.

Chicago is the third installation of ColorComm. A resource organization for women of color in Communication field. The launch event earlier this month was flawless.
Held at 312 Chicago the ladies commandeered the top floor with great conversation, networking, and inspiration. The speaker was the amazing editor for Ebony Magazine, Amy DuBois Barnett.
She doled out great advice that can be used by both veterans in the communication industry and neophytes in the space.
1. Your Network is important nurture it.
2. Be nice to EVERYone. You never know where someone will end up.
3. Have a great mentor.
It isn't enough to have opportunity. You have to earn them, and being prepared it essential to your success. Her words of wisdom resonated with this crowd of go-getters who are ready to take Chicago to the next level.
The organization was created in the summer of 2011 by Lauren Wesley Wilson. It quickly grew from lunches where women could connect to a formal group in DC, New York and now Chicago.
"@terezbaskin: A great talk tonight from @ebonymag's @amydbarnett Great tips on networking. twitter.com/TerezBaskin/st…"
— Amy DuBois Barnett (@amydbarnett) May 10, 2013
I am so proud to be apart of this organization and share my talent and network with women who love Public Relations and Communications just like I do. I can't wait to see what we bring to the city next.

Member Stories – Larry A
My involvement with SA began in the 1990's, when I was contacted by the Mental Health Association in Franklin County, Ohio. I had been a group leader for Recovery, Inc. for 15 years and was well known for my public speaking and leadership skills. The name, "SA" bothered me at first, but once the group came together, it was a relief to use the "S" word. At Recovery, Inc. we were not allowed to talk about diagnoses. Hallucinations could only be called "imagination on fire" or "nervous symptoms." It was a relief to say, "Hi, I'm Larry and I have schizophrenia." It felt like basic honesty to say, "I have bizarre visions and hear voices" and "I often see the world as a very strange and frightening place."
It has been very hard at times to cope with medication side-effects; I had tardive dyskinesia for 16 years, with painful twisting in my neck muscles. I think the only reason I got along as well as I did was that I have the most supportive wife and family anyone could ask for. That includes my extended family, my SA group members! My last hospital stay was in 1996, when my blood pressure, pain & dyskinesia drugs conflicted with my schizophrenia medications, so I went to the hospital with a drug- induced delirium. I spent four days in the hospital, just long enough to get it all adjusted. I'll never forget the compassion I received from my wife, SA group, and my church during my fight back! It was in SA that I learned about the "atypical" anti-psychotics being approved by the FDA. Only 13 months after my new drug treatment began the dyskinesia and neck spasms vanished!
But the most I have learned through SA, is the lesson of true leadership. The best leader is the one who seeks & empowers the leadership skills of the group, it is THEIR group. When the goal of the leader is to practice humility & self-leadership (especially over those nasty impulses to dictate and boss others) group members don't have anyone to resist, resent or rebel against. When the roles in the group are open to everyone to try, leadership is shared and everyone learns leadership. Every member is a leader; they just need to find the leadership role they do best. No role is unimportant. The member who passes out and collects the Blue Books at the meeting is just as important as the one who reads the Welcome Statement, or who chooses and reads the Affirmation, or who calls and visits a group member who is back in the hospital.
Leadership is contagious! Spread the leadership around until everyone gets it! For me, this is the heart & soul of Schizophrenics Anonymous.

Ignition Control Module Question
I installed a Honeywell S8610U Ignition control module a month ago in my Dayton 75,000 BTU Gas hanging furnace in my garage (15 years old). This module replaced a Johnson Controls unit that quit working.
The new module just quit working last night and seemed to fail in the same manner as the old Johnson controls unit. It burned out my thermostat the same time the unit quick working.
When my round Mercury switch Honeywell Thermostat called for heat, the heat anticipator mechanism glows bright red and starts to smoke until the heat anticipator completely frys.
When I remove the stat and connect the two stat wires to manually call for heat, I see a larger than normal spark like something is shorting out..
I tested the internal heat and fan relays and all seem to be working properly. The transformer seems a bit warmer than usual but is putting out voltage. It does sometimes hum a bit.
Im asking this question because it seems really strange that a second Ignition control unit quit working and fried my stat in the exact same way the first one did. Makes me think that there is another problem thats causing the ignition module to fail.
Any suggestions on a cause or what to check next? Or could it be that I just had bad luck with the new Ignition control and need to replace it again?
Check thermostat wire for shorts.

Rice was originally drafted third overall by the Arizona Cardinals in the 1996 NFL Draft, but is probably best known for his years in Tampa since that is where he recorded 67.5 of his 121 career sacks and won the Super Bowl.
After becoming a Buccaneer during Tony Dungy's final season in Tampa Bay back in 2001, his six-year stint with the team ended when he refused to take a pay cut after spending the bulk of 2006 on injured reserve.
He signed with Denver in September. But, like many defensive linemen Mike Shanahan has signed or traded for, Rice and the Broncos coach did not see eye-to-eye. Rice was playing left end instead of his natural right end position and was starting to lose snaps to second year pro Elvis Dumervil. As a result, Rice asked for and was granted his release on November 9.
While many would speculate that Rice is "damaged goods," he did record 14 sacks as recently as 2005 and still possesses much of the quickness that made him dangerous as a younger player. The former Buccaneer was on IR last season because of a shoulder injury, not a leg injury. Truth be told, Shanahan does not have the best track record with defensive linemen, though Dumervil is doing very well this season in a starting role.
Rice has been to three Pro Bowls, trails only Michael Strahan among active career leaders in sacks, and is familiar with Dungy's flavor of the Cover 2 — especially what is required of the right end in that scheme. He essentially played in the same scheme at the same position under defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin in Tampa — they don't call it the "Tampa 2" for nothing — and the results cannot be argued with.
Dungy and the Colts were previously able to take a talented former star who was languishing and returning from injury on a bad squad and turn him around with a midseason transaction in the past. That player, Anthony McFarland, when healthy, is one of the best 4-3 defensive tackles in the league.
Rice is older than McFarland and is heading in a different direction in his career. However, he was steadily improving in run support before the injury, still has a good initial burst, a competent swim move, and presents at least a bit of a matchup problem for any left tackle in the league.
He's not Dwight Freeney, but he should be able to fill in for the talented young Colts star until Freeney is whole again — and fresh for a hopeful playoff run. And there's always the possibility that he will be rejuvenated by a change of scenery, a winning environment, and that he'll catch the first few gentlemen he lines up across from by surprise. That type of jolt from a veteran presence like Rice could help to not only rejuvenate him, but the entire defense.
Then again, he could be an aging defensive end who has lost a step, was never that big to begin with, and was cut by a losing team after managing only 7 tackles and no sacks or forced fumbles in nine games.
If nothing else, he's more accomplished at his position than anyone healthy the Colts have on the roster. And Indianapolis is only responsible for the $337,647 left on his contract with the Broncos. That's not a bad deal at all to help bridge the gap.

The Parting Gifts
Strychnine Dandelion
(In the Red)
US: 9 Nov 2010
UK: 15 Nov 2010
The Parting Gifts exist as an opportunity for Reigning Sound's Greg Cartwright and the Ettes' Coco Hames to pair up, rope in some other indie/garage rock travelers (Dan Auerbach, Patrick Keeler), and play around with whatever tropes found in the dustier confines of their record collections strike their fancy. On the group's debut album, the Gifts dabbled in everything from relaxed mid-tempo rockers ("Bound to Let Me Down") and barn-burning country rousers ("My Mind's Made Up") to soulful R&B ("Hanna")—basically anything that would sound great coming from any well-worn workmanlike band playing at your local dive bar. One of the satisfying attributes of Strychnine Dandelion is that the production is raw, yet nuanced enough to perfectly evoke the original feel of the sounds the assembled musicians are immersing themselves in. However, that also means that the Parting Gifts constantly straddle the line that divides homage and pastiche. There's no greater purpose to the record than to replicate old sounds for the fun of it, and thus the record is limited to being a mere simulacrum. Despite the pleasing execution throughout, in particular, the lustful yearning of lounge-y blues number "My Baby Tonight" and the driving garage rock of "Don't Hurt me Now", it's hard to fully accept that as a laudable purpose in of itself, and it results in a somewhat empty listening experience.

The holiday season was filled with pain and heartache for one Marshall County family as a grandmother lost her home and four canine companions in a Christmas night blaze.
The fire began about 9 p.m. Dec. 25 at a mobile home at 355 Hill Estate Lane, in the Sharpe Community of Marshall County. The flames that began in the front room quickly spread, eventually engulfing the entire residence, according to Fire Chief Rick Pershing of Possum Trot-Sharpe.
He said when his department along with Palma-Briensburg arrived on scene more than two-thirds of the mobile home was on fire. Crews remained until about 1 a.m. the next morning when the mobile home was deemed a total loss. Resident Mary Bailey, 74, was able to escape the home and was rescued by neighbors Adam and Jessica Dublin, who then called 911. Her four dogs ranging in ages from five to 16 years, named Reba, Cinnamon, Sparky and Shiloh, died in the blaze.
Mary Bailey voiced the pain associated with losing her home, her beloved pets and the source of her independent lifestyle.
"It's something I never want to go through again," she said. "I just don't know how to start over after I've lost everything and nearly everybody. I just want a home to go back to."
Daughter Tammy Bailey of Benton said the significance of the loss of her mother's furry companions cannot be overstated.
"Losing her dogs was just a crushing blow ... they were like her children," she said.
Bailey said her mother has developed inhalation pneumonia as a result of the smoke. The fire report stated the cause as a malfunction of Mary Bailey's oxygen concentrator. The machine was engulfed in flames, the fire then spread to the home's tubbing system before she could reach the extinguisher. Once the fire spread to the couch, Bailey fled her domicile to the front porch.
Although the family has considered a lawsuit against the manufacturer, due to the age of the mobile home, which is more than 30 years old, they decided the legal expense wouldn't be feasible. The family also didn't have insurance on the trailer and haven't been able to clear the lot due to financial concerns. Mary Bailey is currently living with her daughter and husband Michael Bass just two doors down from the lot of her mobile home.
"She wants to stay close to her family but without help that will be impossible," Tammy Bailey said. "My mother has had so many losses in the last few years, she shouldn't have to start from scratch at age 74."
The Lakeland Area Red Cross provided Mary Bailey with $150 toward food and clothing expenses. But with nearly every one of her possessions destroyed that money has just been a small dip in a large barrel of need.
Other than monetary concerns, the family also lost many treasured heirlooms including portraits, military certifications, flags, pictures and other symbols of a life more than seven generations old.
But Tammy Bailey and her family are focused on finding the silver lining amid a difficult situation, including her mother's escape from significant injury, an autoharp and the family bible found weeks later that miraculously survived the flames.
"There are some things throughout this ordeal that have truly been miracles," she said.
The family is asking for any monetary donations and anyone willing to donate their time to help clear the debris from the lot. Donations are being accepted at all Paducah Bank locations under the name Mary Bailey fund or those willing to help are asked to contact Tammy Bailey at 270-898-2761 or 270-217-9267.

Formatting Cards
A reader asks, "What's with card formatting? Do I really need to do it? I just popped my card into my camera and everything seems to work OK."
Formatting a card basically insures that it is going to work right with your camera.
Just like computers, memory cards have files systems, folders, etc. When you use your camera to format a card, it sets the card up the way the camera needs it to be in order to function properly.
Now, for the most part, if you just pop in the memory card it will usually work. Most cameras will automatically put all the necessary "stuff" on the card for you, regardless of whether you've formatted it or not.
However, formatting a card is a very quick and (mostly) painless procedure, so I recommend doing it the first time you pop the card into your camera. Just in case. Since the actual way you format the card varies widely from camera to camera, you'll have to consult your owner's manual for specific how-to advice.
In addition to getting the card ready to use with the camera, formatting can also fix minor problems. If your card and camera are not getting along too well—lots of error messages, bad writes, etc.—try formatting the card. Sometimes it works, sometimes the card has passed to the great digital beyond, but it's worth a try.
All that useful tech stuff aside, formatting is a quick way to delete all the images off of a memory card. Rather then scrolling through and picking them off one by one, just do a format – the images are erased in a matter of seconds. Of course, don't do this if there are images on that card you want to keep

Clay is a special kind of earth which is made by the decomposition of rocks through the action of weathering.
What does that mean?
Well basically, over time, bits of earth are carried from one place to another by water and deposited in areas where the water slows down to a trickle. (Have you ever gone digging by the water's edge only to grab a handful of muck? Well that muck is clay.) As the bits of earth travel with the water, they pick up all sorts of stuff and by the time we pick up a box of clay from the pottery store, the muck has been collected and prepared for us to use. All of the tiny rocks and lumps have been removed and some additional materials, like sand are sometimes added to create the perfect workable clay.
Clay can be found anywhere but it is only useful for pottery if it has good "plasticity." You can test this by seeing how stretchy a piece of clay is. If you can take a piece of clay, roll it into a coil and bend it into a ring without cracking and falling apart, chances are it will make good pots and sculptures.
Natural clay that we find outside usually needs to be cleaned and refined before it can be used. Any tiny rocks and lumps are removed and some additional materials, like sand are sometimes added to create the perfect workable clay that we buy from the pottery supply house.
Clay artists throughout the ages have invented many ways to shape things out of clay.
PINCH - Use your fingers to pinch and poke a single lump of clay into any shape.
SLAB - Roll the clay into flat sheets (like a pie crust) to cut apart and assemble.
COIL - Roll out long snakes of clay and twist them into coils and shapes.
WHEEL - Spin clay on a potter's wheel to form pots and vases.
Wedging: This is what you do to get all of the air bubbles out of your clay. Basically you roll the clay around on a flat surface "pushing" and "pulling" the clay so all of the air comes out. Clay right out of the box is already wedged ... you don't have to worry about air bubbles with new clay.
Kiln: This is a large, hot oven that is used to fire the clay. You need to fire your clay in a kiln in order for it to be permanent. A kiln can reach temperatures of 2500 degrees F. and higher. Your oven at home maybe reaches 500 degrees F.
Earthenware: This is the type of clay often used in schools. It comes in white or red and it is fired to a temperature of approximately 1000 degrees C. or 1830 degrees F.
Slip: This is liquid clay ... clay with a lot of water added to it. It is used in ceramics (poured into molds). It is also sometimes used as a sort of glue to hold clay pieces together. You need to use slip to "fasten" pieces of clay together so that they don't fall apart in the kiln. You see, clay shrinks as it dries so if you haven't made sure that your clay pieces are firmly attached, they will separate in the kiln. It isn't enough to simply "pile" one piece of clay on the next. Use watered down clay as your glue.
Leather-Hard: This is what we call clay that has dried for a few hours. It should feel slightly cool to the touch. Leather-hard clay is not dry enough for firing in a kiln ... If a piece of clay is put into the kiln while it is still wet, it could explode. When water gets hot ... it boils right? Well, your pottery piece will literally "blow up" if it contains water or moisture that boils when it gets hot in the kiln.
Greenware: When clay has dried and is ready to be fired in a kiln, it is referred to as greenware. Usually clay should air dry for about a week depending on the thickness of the piece.
Bisque: This is the first firing. Clay is usually fired in a kiln twice. Once at a lower temperature (the bisque firing). After a piece is bisqued, it can be glazed, painted or left as is. If the clay is glazed, it then goes in the kiln for a second firing.
Glaze: This is used to decorate clay that will hold liquid. It is essentially "liquid glass" or glass particles (mixed with colors or pigments) that have been ground down. Glaze melts at a high temperature and turns into the coatings that you see on a finished pottery piece.
Cone: The temperature that a kiln is set to depends on what type of clay you are firing. Some clay is referred to as cone 4 while some clay is referred to as cone 6. These are simply temperature gauges. An cone - designed to melt at a certain temperature - is used to gauge the temperature. Earthenware is usually fired to cone 06 - approximately 1000 degrees C. or 1832 degrees F. Your oven is only about 500 degrees F.

"…Time loves a hero, but only time will tell if he's real…" — Little Feat
And so it is with endodontic treatment planning. This article discusses treatment-planning rules that will help your endodontic therapy stand the test of time, finishing with a report from the digital frontier about how 3-dimensional (3-D) digital imaging is revolutionizing treatment planning as well as the accomplishment of exceptional dentistry. It all begins with first order issues.
My father, a retired control systems engineer (missile guidance), taught me that the most important thing to do at the beginning of any creative pursuit is to search out and determine the "first order issues." What are first order issues? Here's an example: if you were designing a suite of software that would later run the world of PC computers, you would want to be certain that you leave enough character spaces in the date field so that the software could survive Y2K. I know. Not that easy, but it is really important.
Dental examples of respect for first order issues would be: 1. making sure that you are not planning to retreat a root-fractured tooth, or the other extreme 2. making sure that you are not replacing a tooth with an implant when a simple endodontic procedure could be done with a high expectation of success (Figures 1a and 1b).
|Figure 1a. Maxillary molar with failing root canal treatment. The dentist who originally treated the root canal system (only the palatal canal!), only after the patient complained of continuing symptoms, offered to extract the tooth and replace it with an implant.
|Figure 1b. Post-op result after single-visit retreatment. The patient's symptoms were immediately relieved, possibly by adding the remaining 3 canals to the endodontic treatment plan.
So what are the first order priorities in treatment planning for endodontics? I would have to say that it boils down to 4 serial requirements:
- Determine the prognosis.
- List possible courses of treatment.
- Choose the best treatment.
- Plan the procedure.
Regardless of how far our procedural technology advances in the future, these 4 issues will always beg an answer before any cutting occurs.
Determine the Prognosis
Careful assessment of the overall damage that a tooth has endured—and a wise determination of its prognosis—is a prerequisite to successful treatment planning. This is not an article about diagnosis but, suffice it to say, exceptional endodontic treatment after an erroneous diagnosis is not going to benefit the patient. Likewise, an exceptional endodontic procedure, done on a tooth that falls apart after treatment, will not be appreciated.
|Figure 2. Maxillary molar with an infected vertical root fracture of the mesiobuccal root. The root canal therapy (RCT) was successful apically, but the over-enlargement caused a coronal failure of structural integrity.
|Figure 3a. Mandibular molar with deep distal decay nearly hemisecting the distal root. The structural damage was extensive.
|Figure 3b. Recall x-ray 4 months after immediate implant replacement of the molar. This treatment plan, with the second implant in the edentulous space, has a much better long-term prognosis than RCT and restoration would have provided.
|Figure 4a. Maxillary central incisor brokenoff at the gumline. The challenge of creating an adequate ferrule around the remaining root structure with an ideal aesthetic result suggested replacement with an immediate implant.
Discovery of the full extent of pulpal, periodontal, or combined disease conditions requires definitive pulp testing (with sustained sources of thermal stimulus), careful periodontal probings, and the best radiographic imaging you can get. Then, after considering all of the relevant data, a very well-informed prediction of its potential longevity is made.
The first order conditions to consider in prognosis determination (listed in order of importance) are: 1. structural damage (Figures 2 to 4b), 2. periodontal damage (Figures 5a and 5b), and 3. endodontic damage (Figure 6).
Structural and periodontal conditions will always trump the endodontic condition when considering whether to save or extract a tooth. A beautiful endodontic retreatment will not keep a structurally compromised tooth from coming apart in the near future, nor will it heal periodontal lesions that are not of an endodontic origin.
Any tooth with a root fracture extending (even one mm) into the soft-tissue attachment at the cemento-enamel junction should be extracted. No endodontic or restorative treatment that I have ever seen can prevent the certain demise of a root-fractured tooth. Be definitive with these loser teeth.
|Figure 4b. Postoperative x-ray showing immediate implant replacement.
|Figure 5a. First and second molars with endodontic and periodontal disease.
|Figure 5b. Two-year-recall exam showing successful RCT of the first molar and replacement of the second molar with an implant and prosthesis.
|Figure 6. Maxillary lateral incisor with a hedstrom file separated near the end of the canal and an osseous lesion at the root apex. This could be re-treated conventionally after removal of the crown, the core, the post, and the file segment, or—if the post and core appear to be intact—re-treat the canal from a retrograde approach. Much less cost, less treatment time, and a certain result.
When periodontal damage has occurred, the trend of the disease state is informative as to the prognosis for arresting the disease and repairing damage in the supporting tissues around a tooth. Also important is whether the periodontal defect is specific to that tooth, or part of a generalized periodontal condition. An isolated periodontal lesion, coupled with a suspicious or definitively bad pulp test result, indicates an endo/perio situation that has a fair to good prognosis with the right treatment.1,2
Damage from previous endodontic treatment is common, and most of the mishaps that have occurred in the apical third of roots are repairable without apical surgery.3 When needed, surgical resection of the apical half of a root will not significantly reduce the longevity of that tooth.4 Conversely, overcutting the access cavity and the coronal one half of the root can doom a tooth to structural failure. Posts never strengthen roots after endodontic treatment, and neither will composite bonding; and cut dentin never returns.5,6
Conversely, when access cavities are cut conservatively, when coronal enlargement of canals is limited and the restorative work is well done, endodontic treatment nearly always offers an excellent long-term structural prognosis.
Prognosis determination informs but does not decide the treatment plan; for example, it may be preferable to retreat a tooth with a guarded long-term prognosis if the patient is elderly, rather than subject that patient to extraction and implant placement, or extraction without replacement. Likewise, for our younger patients we must recommend and execute treatment plans that have the longest attendant prognoses.
List Possible Courses of Treatment
So, if we have successfully assessed the disease state and our forecast of the current prognosis would indicate saving the tooth, the choices are the following:
- Do nothing. This is not an option for necrotic teeth; infected teeth need root canal treatment (RCT) or extraction.
- Conventional RCT. Well-done RCT works as often as implants. It can be done in a single visit, and the tooth is ready for a new crown in 2 weeks.
- Surgical RCT. Calcified canals are always found from a retrograde approach, and sometimes a critical abutment should not be disturbed by cutting an access cavity through it. The whole canal must be treated from the apical approach.
- Conventional retreatment. This is the only choice when coronal leakage has occurred and is the automatic treatment of choice for missed canals and irrigation failures. It is difficult when apical damage has occurred.
- Surgical retreatment. This is still better than an implant if the structure and periodontal findings are good. It is the best option when coronal structures are tight and apical damage has occurred.
- Conventional and surgical retreatment. This is for those retreatment cases that absolutely must work. Andreason's research showed nearly 100% success when orthograde (from both ends) treatment was done on teeth with failed RCT.
|Figure 7a. Conventional preoperative radiograph showing obscure root structure.
|Figure 7b. Computed tomography (CT) view showing buccal canals merging apically with a 3 mm long accessory canal diverging from the point of confluence.
|Figure 7c. Conventional postoperative radiograph showing root canal anatomy shaped and obturated just as seen preoperatively in the CT image.
These choices should be explained to the patient in terms of operative and postoperative discomfort, the expected treatment result, the long-term prognosis after, and the cost of treatment.
Choose the Best Treatment
Recommending which treatment course to pursue is usually simple when looking at single teeth. The tooth may be totally unsalvageable—root fracture, for example—and the only treatment that would be considered is extraction. In this case, there are decisions to be made about restoring function and aesthetics after the tooth is removed, but none regardingthe tooth itself.
A more difficult call is about a tooth with a little bit of every type of problem. For example: a Class I furcation; three quarters of the coronal structure is missing; and the previous root canal was not done well. Some of the considerations in gray-area cases like this would be: Is the perio defect isolated or generalized? Was the coronal third of the canals overenlarged? Has the root been damaged apically during previous treatment? Will both conventional and surgical retreatment be necessary? Would an implant replacement be easy or hard? What is the financial ability of the patient to fund more expensive treatment choices if indicated?
If the assessments of the disease state, its extent, and the prognoses of each possible treatment are accurately and adequately explained to patients, then they can make a decision that is best for them.
Perhaps the first order issue for dentists recommending a course of treatment is about bias. There are several kinds of bias that intrude on clinical judgments. Self-interested bias is easy to see and to avoid in most situations. Unconscious bias can be harder to avoid; for example, the tendency of clinicians to limit their recommended treatment options to procedures they feel comfortable doing themselves.
After consideration of all factors, I would recommend the same course of treatment that I would want myself or that I would want another dentist to recommend to a family member.
Plan the Procedure
Many of us consider treatment planning to be completed after the choice of treatment has been made. I disagree with this concept because without a procedural plan in place before difficult cases are begun, endodontic therapy can quickly go awry. The best treatment plan cannot overcome mediocre procedural execution. So how do we better plan our procedures?
|Figure 8a. Maxillary second molar with an apparent endo/perio lesion.
Figure 8b. CT slice showing an osseous radiolucency wrapping from the distal aspect of the root into the distal furcation. No periapical lesions seen at any of the root apices. Pulp testing confirmed the CT imaging suggesting a periodontal lesion without an endodontic component.
|Figure 9a. Conventional preoperative x-ray showing no obvious periradicular pathosis.
|Figure 9b. CT view showing the palatal root nearly resected by a large external resorptive defect.
I would recommend that all clinicians and assisting team members read Dr. Atul Gawande's book entitled The Checklist Manifesto—How To Get Things Right (Metropolitan Books, 2009). Also, I recommend his other books Better: A Surgeon's Notes on Performance and Complications: A Surgeon's Notes on an Imperfect Science. This gentleman is an excellent journalist, a surgeon on staff at Harvard Medical and Harvard Public Health Schools, and the director of the World Health Organization's "Safe Surgery Saves Lives" program. For years, he has pursued a campaign to improve surgical and all health-delivery outcomes through research into best practices, feeding the outcomes data back to operating rooms around the world.
One of the most powerful epiphanies he had was in realizing that many fewer errors are made in the airline industry as compared to medicine and that this is literally because they live and die by checklists.
Dr. Gawande has begun enlisting hospitals around the world in his studies related to checklists for quality control in healthcare. Those who have participated have seen remarkable improvements in results, especially in complex operations when most of the operating team and surgeons are unknown to each other. At the end of the day, Dr. Gawande is improving procedural results by documenting them with preoperative, midprocedure, and postoperative list checks, thereby nipping small and large errors in the bud. Furthermore, this process creates a very effective structure on the backend that encourages iterative improvements of those procedures.
First order issues for procedural planning are the following:
- Know your skills. Never stop practicing or training up.
- Know your patient. Premedicate the patient if needed.

Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging has changed everything in dentistry. Not a great number of clinicians understand this yet, but it will not be very long before most do. When dentists who have easy access to a CBCT machine consider the very low amounts of absorbed radiation that some of these machines project7 as well as the quality of the volumetric data captured,8 treatment planning without it is similar to the experience of doing root canal therapy without a microscope.
The dimensional accuracy of CBCT machines is proven,9,10 and the resolutions of some of the machines approach 50 µm, making it possible for lateral canals to be seen preoperatively11 and it has somewhat delivered on one of my childhood fantasies of having x-ray vision. Even if you thought you were Superman when you looked at conventional dental x-rays, having volumetric x-ray imaging is like being Superman in a world without Kryptonite.

The 3-D x-ray imaging allows clinicians to know everything about a given tooth's anatomy and the fullest extent of the disease state before any invasive procedures are done (To see a video of diagnosis and treatment planning with CBCT imaging visit endobuchanan.com). Let's look at several examples of anatomic challenges that are normally hidden on 2-dimensional dental x-rays but are easily seen with CT imaging (Figures 7a to 7c). Because of the contributions of CBCT imaging, prognosis determination for teeth with failing endodontic treatment is now more definitive—and just being able to weed out most of the loser teeth before cutting an exploratory access is a major bonus for dentists and patients alike.
Let's also take a look at some clinical comparisons of conventional and CBCT imaging for assessment of disease states (Figures 8a to 9b).
For those clinicians who have had a CBCT machine in their office for more than a year, the advantages of 3-D volumetric x-ray imaging is incontrovertible. Competitively, as an endodontic specialist, it's an unfair advantage.
Even beyond the diagnostic benefits of CBCT imaging, the advantage of 3-D imaging to the clinician actually doing the procedure is huge (Figure 10). We are currently able to set up a drill path to pass, in the 3-D virtual anatomic computer space of your patient's tooth, exactly through each root apex, and then have a drill guide made to carry that computer plan directly into the patient's mouth—kind of like robotic surgery, except we still get to hang on to the handpiece. Now you are talking about some very fun, very effective outcomes. Faster, better, and safer—that is music to a lazy perfectionist's ears.
This is not pie-in-the-sky vaporware. The technology now exists to capture and reconstruct our patients' dental anatomy and disease to a .001 mm resolution. The software for surgical treatment planning in voxel space has been used for years in implant surgery and is currently under development for endodontic surgery. And let me tell you, it is a relaxed and very cool experience to secure a CAD/CAM stereolithography-generated drill guide precisely onto your patient's teeth, and complete all of the drilling and milling for a given procedure in a minute or 2 with remarkable precision (Figures 11a and 11b).
In other words, we are way beyond the early-adopter phase with this technology. When you look at the convergence of the tools mentioned above with digital impression scanning, and CAD/CAM milling machines, the future is clear. While it may take a generational change of dentists to fully understand the advantages of these new digital tools, clinicians like myself who have reveled in The New, New Thing since the day they graduated, will chase this 3-D imaging and digital treatment planning protocol like a dog chasing a cat.

Why Rock Chips?
Yea, I know, don't tail-gate.
Really, a couple of years ago I painted my truck using PPG's materials. I used DBU base coat and applied DCU2042 clear coat. The DCU calls for 4 parts DCU: 1 part DCX61 (hardener) and reduced with 1 part DT reducer.
I applied the materials as directed using an HVLP gun in my garage. I was really pleased with the job and it color sanded and buffed out really well.
Two years later, I am getting rock chips that seem too prevalent for the careful use it gets. I admit that I have driven it fast in traffic a couple of times, but basically, compared to some paint jobs I have had done professionally, the paint seems more to likely to chip than say the Sikkens job done on a sports car recently.
Am I using the wrong top coat or should I not be using the hardener? What is the trick to reducing rock chips?
Usually rock chips are due to thick paint. The thicker the more prone to chip. Are they big chips, or little flecks? If they are big, definately paint thickness. But, I am not expert.
They are not large, typically pin head to twice that size.
I don't use PPG as much, but have noticed more chips on cars that had too much hardener- this doesn't seem to be your case as you went by specs, buy overly hard paint will chip easier also. The film thickness response is a good cause, too.
why rock chips
Hey F1 ,
Sounds like you are experiencing NORMAL wear & tear .Even if you are extremely careful, there is no way to stop rock chips ,speed isn't usually a factor . All you need is someone in front of you with a rock in their tires ,or even sand on the road .
Just look at the sand pits in your windshield if you don't believe, and think how hard IT is . Judging from the size you describe ,I'd say it was coarse sand . Anyway, my guess is that paint thickness is probably the culprit here ,some times we all get a little carried away with paint application . So , don't get discouraged , just drive your 'baby' and enjoy it . After all ain't that the name of the game? Rick
P.S. When you mix paint ,keep in mind that when they say so many parts to so many parts---they mean VOLUME ,NOT WEIGHT, many people make that mistake .
3M makes a thick clear self adhesive film that can be placed on areas that are prone to being chipped, like the front edge of your hood. The stuff is designed to be permanent, but can be removed. It is for people who detest bug shields.
If you drive behind other vehicles paint chips are part of the deal. Cars with rubber noses tend to chip less because they allow the paint to flex a little more. My 89 Mustang has every square inch of the hood peppered from rocks and sand and who knows what else bouncing off of it on my daily commute on 1-95, about 50 miles total each day just on the interstate. The rubber bumper on that car has faired out much better though. The windshield looks like it has been sandblasted when viewed through the morning sun. My 78 Camaro with a flex additive-lacquer paint on the rubber nose has almost no chips and that paint job is 17 yrs old, go figure. Painted sheet metal on the front of a vehicle never seems to fair out that well.
Even slow driving around town will find chips from stuff thrown up by other cars not just dump trucks! If it really bothers you try using a front end bras on longer trips but don't use it all the time because it will leave marks on the car.
Scratches and chips are a part of life no matter what your paint thickness or type of paint is.
Yep, as bad as it sucks, rock chips are going to happen. Kindof like door dings. If you drive it long enough some ********* is going to ding it.....if you dont first. It is so painful to see thought isn't it. Just like a punch in the gut when you chip that new paint. My S-10 already has a few little nicks I have had to patch up just from working on it, and it has never seen pavement. My 57 is peppered all over the front and around the wheel wells.
Like the time I graciously offered to give a jump on a dead battery for a secretary in our office. Pulled up close enough to her car to fit the jumper cables and she opened her door so hard into my Willys hood that it exposed the fiberglass strands!
Incidentally, did you know that glass is technically a liquid? It is one of the few solids that has random molecule distribution, no crystalline structure.
Well, I was sort of hoping that a professional painter type would come on the board and tell me to use a flex agent or to delete the hardener on the paint applied to the front of the car or some chemical/ mechanical solution.
So far, I have only come up with the idea of applying a set of flames to cover up the chips to date.
Painters, where are you when I need you?
Adding flex agent is only a temporary fix to keep paint flexible while plastic parts are being torqued around during installation from what I have been told. Basically flex agent only remains flexible for a short period of time and eventually the paint reaches its original hardness.
As for removing hardner, that would be a no no as well. Hardner is a chemical activator that cures the paint. If you leave it out you will have a very big mess.
Most people who are really concerned about this problem run a bra. I've seen a few rods at rod runs that have tiny little bugs (pinhead up to 2-3 pinhead sized flies, bees, grasshoppers, etc.) painted on the dings. One of those was a prize winner at a recent NSRA Street Rod Western Nationals.
OK, I'll just take it out and smash a few bugs and clear coat it. I love winning the big trophys!
why rock chips
Hey F1 ,
I AM a professional bodyman/painter and have been for 30+ years. The answer that Turbo gave you is right on the head .There is no way to leave out hardener in any type of urethane paint & still get it to cure. Flex additives only slow the total cure time .And ,unfortunately, clear protective film is designed for small areas ,and is a REAL pain to put on correctly,unless you are a pro . I LOVE the bug decopage idea ,I have done that more than a couple of times ,but usually it is accidental ,& gives me fits!!!
Keep on truckin' , Rick
F1 Owner (Rick): thanks for the feedback. From your experience, are there any paint systems or brands that do a better job of resisting abraision?

Eyes on Yellowstone, an education and research program, continues Canon U.S.A.'s partnership with the Yellowstone Park Foundation, which began in 1995.
Funding for the Yellowstone Park Foundation assists with important scientific research and breaks new ground in conservation, endangered species protection and the application of cutting-edge science and technology that is essential to managing Yellowstone National Park wildlife and ecosystems. The latest science indicates that climate change has the potential to dramatically influence Yellowstone's ecology and impact the future of the Park's wildlife. Canon's Eyes on Yellowstone is designed as a platform to help Park employees and partners respond to these issues through mitigation, adaptation and effectively communicating about climate change to the public.
Canon's partnership with the Yellowstone Park Foundation funds programs including old faithful geyser live!, a streaming webcam, and online roving rangers, a series of education web videos and podcasts. The Yellowstone Wolf Project uses Canon digital cameras in its aerial radio-tracking flights within Yellowstone National Park as a method to enhance its data collection. Canon technology, used for education, increases access to the wonder and magic of one of the most recognizable and popular parks in the world, and helps raise awareness about the importance of the environmental stewardship and conservation. Another important initiative is the Greater Yellowstone Science Learning Center, a website where science and education come together to help preserve and protect this area of national significance.

And yet even with that task at hand I'm already looking over the horizon with a great deal of nervousness as I merely contemplate finishing one book and starting another. I have the new book jitters.
As many/most/all of you know, starting to write a new book can be a hugely daunting task. I liken it to staring down at a deep, dark abyss. You know it's a long way down and it's pretty scary to jump.
Some writers I know just try and block out how much work they have ahead and just chip away as best they can. I always try and remind myself that it will get done eventually with just a little constant steady progress. Other people try and outline so they can break it all down into comprehensible and non-daunting chunks.
What about you? Do you find it difficult to start a new book project? Or are you so jazzed about the new idea that it carries you through until the new book jitters pass? How do you cope with staring at the abyss?

We'd never get Monty Python onto television today: Jones
By Henrique Almeida
LISBON (Reuters) - Terry Jones says being funny as a member of Monty Python's Flying Circus was just a byproduct of the real aim: subversion.
The 64-year-old writer, director and actor told Reuters in Lisbon ahead of the world premiere of his new musical "Evil Machines" that he is still surprised by the popularity of the Monty Python series of television shows and films.
"I think one reason was that with Python we purely wrote for the six of us," he said. "Our message was: don't believe anything people say."
Jones, who co-wrote and performed in the British television series during the late 1960s and early 1970s alongside Michael Palin, Terry Gilliam, John Cleese, Graham Chapman and Eric Idle said their absurd brand of humor would never make it past today's television programmers.
"Nowadays it would be impossible to do that. You really have to satisfy the needs of television stations which carry out audience surveys before they commission shows," he said.
Jones -- whose many madcap characters include the lynch-mob happy mother in "Life of Brian" and the obscenely obese diner Mr. Creosote who explodes after a touch too much supper in "The Meaning of Life" -- said he doesn't see himself as a comedian and would hate to do a stand-up routine.
"I'm not really that funny, but I do like to laugh."
Python's original name -- "Bun, Whackett, Buzzard, Stubble and Boot" -- was rejected by the BBC, which urged Jones and his friends to come up with an easier name for viewers to digest. Continued...

Remember when 64-year-old musicians were relegated to rehashing hits aboard Carnival cruise liners? To paraphrase B-Real, Neil Young ain't goin' out like that. On Le Noise, Young teams with über-producer Daniel Lanois for an aural odyssey that takes you anywhere but sun-soaked beaches.
Strumming a filthily distorted guitar, molten and heavy as any in all of stoner-metal, Young sets the sonic and thematic tones with "Walk With Me" as he invites a lover and his audience to follow him, singing, "I'm on this journey/I don't want to go alone." Classic Young subject matter appears from then on: love and loss, drugs and their aftermath, humans affecting the earth, war.
It's the guitar that makes this album a significant stop in the troubadour's storied career. There are no overdubs, but among all the reverb and effects loops it's as if multitudes are playing. For some, the effects may overpower the songs, but for the most part they create a remarkable force juxtaposed against Young's high, lonesome vocals.
However, the acoustic "Love and War" is the album's apex, sounding a quiet release from the histrionics of overdriven guitars and exhibiting the man's most passionate singing. In other words, come for Le Noise, stay for le silence.

So proud of Lulu!!
Only 10 weeks and she is doing so well.
First brag...
In my back yard 3 of my neighbors have dogs. They are the annoying kind that bark simply because someone is outside. Lulu just ignores them, like they arent even there!
Second brag...
Because shes not fully vaccinated I dont take her on walks in my neighborhood (there are tons of dogs here and people always walk them... some even poo in my yard!) but I still want her socialized with other kids and people, basically just to let her know that the rest of the world exists. Today I took her to my kids school. They go to a very small private school with not a lot of people. I decided to take her there so that she can be around kids and hear a lot of noise be petted. I also wanted to see how she would react to all that commotion.
She did AMAZING! She was excited to see them, licked them a bit. But she was so amazingly calm and well behaved. After the kids were done petting her she just sat down looking about interested in her surroundings.
I am so proud of my girl!
Keep training :D im so proud for her as well !! Its an awesome feeling!
What a sweetie Lulu is :)
Yay for Lulu! It sounds like she's coming along just great :)
