92 Dental - Our Reputation Goes By Word Of Mouth
From dentistry to orthodontics, we can take care of all your dental needs
Our team at 92 Dental have been caring for West Londoners' teeth for over 20 years. We always ask our clients why they chose us and invariably they say that it was on the recommendation of a family member, friend or neighbour.
If you are looking for a new dentist, read what some of our clients have to say:
"When people suggest that things were better in the good old days, I think of dentistry. Ron has taken excellent care of the entire Hutchinson family for over 15 years. Our children have known nothing else, of course, but my teeth have known life Before Ron and After Ron – and I know which I prefer. I have always been impressed by Ron's technical knowledge, his near painless treatments, his silky dexterity and the calm way in which he combines the three. I think his style of dentistry is a new form of high art combined with high science."
-Robert Hutchinson, Stamford Brook
"I have been a patient at 92 Dental for over 20 years and have lost count of the number of recommendations I have made to family and friends who now see Ron on a regular basis. His practice is full of the latest high tech equipment which means that patients receive the most caring and up-to-date treatment available. If you are looking for a new dentist, don't hesitate in choosing the best."
- Alison Dallimore, Hammersmith
"I have been a regular patient at 92 Dental for over 13 years and I am always amazed at the level of professionalism received. On my recommendation over the years a number of friends and business colleagues have all been equally impressed and continued to use the practice. The equipment is updated at regular intervals and it is indeed state of the art technology. The staff are compassionate, warm and fun and maintain the highest of standards.
- Sanne Carstensen, Chiswick
At 92 Dental, our team, which includes general dentists and specialists all working under one roof, has the expertise to carry out everything from routine general dentistry to orthodontics (for children and adults) and implant dentistry. However simple or complex your dental needs might be, our highly qualified practitioners and empathetic support staff will ensure that you receive the best possible treatment using materials and equipment that meet the most stringent standards in an atmosphere that is calm and comforting.
We believe that dental care is a very personal experience for most people and that the key to lifelong oral health is a long term relationship between you the client and us the practitioners.

Google can be weaponized. Sometimes by accident, other times on purpose. Today's online reputation management is a type of information counter-warfare with reviews and content replacing guns and heavy artillery. So let's launch into what you can do to fight back against a negative online reputation.
Countering reputation attacks
Not 20 years ago, people had few ways to express their dissatisfaction with a company's product in any meaningful way or to any broad audience. If you didn't like the product or service you'd purchased, you either took it up with a (very) modest customer support department, attempted to return it at the place of purchase, or just grumbled to friends and family about how inferior the product or service was.
Then along came the wave of disruption that is search and social media. It leveled the playing field and then tilted it wildly in the favor of anyone with a computer and a little knowledge. Brand managers woke up to nightmares like Facebook videos decimating a company's reputation in a blink of an eye.
It's going to happen
We live in an era where snowy white corporate reputations are quickly going the way of unicorns. Sooner or later, a dissatisfied client is bound to write something about you that's damaging to your reputation, ranging from justified anger to downright maliciousness.
How do you get rid of it? Well, you don't - at least not entirely. But you can often mitigate the inevitable corporate reputation damage.
First: how not to remove information
Reputation rule number one:
Content that was placed by others almost always needs to be removed by others.
People love to edit their own Wikipedia pages. Can anyone tell that you have edited your own Wikipedia page? Yes. Your IP address is visible to everyone and can be geolocated if you don't have a Wikipedia account. If you do have a Wikipedia account Wikipedia can still tell where you are, either manually or algorithmically. Finally, if something negative is deleted from Wikipedia there is a strong indication that the person doing the edit was motivated by something other than altruism (selfless concern for others).
The tone brands tend to use on their Wikipedia pages is also a problem. Why? Because brand managers are often the ones doing the Wikipedia editing and they think brand managers. That means they write that way too. At Reputation X we can often spot the writing styles of brand managers without the need for stylometry (programmatic authorship attribution) simply because their writing style shouts "advertising"!
Another way of not removing information is to scream at the person who posted it - either in an email or with an attorney. At least - try to talk - before tossing lawyers at the problem. An open hand is better than a fist when attempting to have negative content removed from the internet. Here are some content removal negotiation tactics that might help.
The right way to "remove" information
Rather than removing the information yourself, successful online reputation management is all about getting the information removed backstage. Start by tracking down and gauging the temperament of the original poster of this information. Does the situation seem salvageable? Can their discontentment be turned around or are they a lost cause? Is there any chance you can get them to remove this information themselves?
Many of the biggest "wins" in online reputation management history happened when companies fessed up to their public blunders and took public responsibility for their actions to diffuse public outcry. Of course, the win wasn't immediate all the time - sometimes more pain followed before things got better. Today's online brand management is about two things: diplomacy and transparency. Be fair. Shoot straight. You'll be surprised at how far you can get. If your brand managers think that, under the circumstances, fessing up is a bad idea, then you might want to move straight to suppression.
In Google or Bing suppression means pushing something down in search results.
How to suppress negative content
Usually, the first thing that comes to mind when online reputation management is mentioned in non-professional settings is this - obscuring the bad, making it harder to access by burying it beneath a mountain of more recent information that ideally shows your online brand in a more positive light. This technique works most of the time if done right. It will backfire horribly if done incorrectly.
That said, the information you post can range from well-thought-out and meaningful to downright irrelevant depending on the audience in question.
Steps to push down bad search results
- Visualize who is searching online for your brand. This is called a persona.
- Look at the bottom of branded search results for Searches Related To... and People Also Ask.
- Create a content plan that addresses the questions and queries found in those two places. Your content plan should have at least 100 articles. Each article should be better than anything else that is ranking on the first page for the target search query and should satisfy the "persona" you researched above. Content plan info here.
- Within your content plan make sure you have many types of media. For example: articles, video, guest posts, social media, and press releases.
- Once created, reach out to media partners, blogs that accept guest posts, and your social media feeds to find places to post the content. Hint: Make sure your brand name is in the headline for most of them.
- Wait two weeks to see where they land in search results. Then, use your company social media feeds to drive traffic to the content that performs best in search results. Keep this up for at least a month for each article.
The above list has been massively simplified, but you get the idea.
Note: Don't use Spray and Pray reputation techniques
Burying content under fluff and filler makes you suspect to the risk of this information resurfacing at a later time and makes you look worse than before. So - quality content only! Are you proud to put your name on it? If not, don't post it.
Google can tell what's good and bad. A big change in Google has been the RankBrain system, a sort of artificial intelligence that looks at web pages and tries to rate their quality as a person would. So if a person wouldn't like the page, RankBrain may not either. When online reputation management companies throw a lot of irrelevant or low quality information at Google it's called "spray and pray." Avoid spray and pray techniques.
Reviews: Organic, well-spaced improvement wins
Negative reviews and indexed results need to be made to go away in a similar fashion to how they were instigated- with natural chronological spacing, thoughtful client feedback, and a healthy dose of visual content (either video or pictures) between the negative post and the positive ones succeeding it. A general rule of thumb is: if it looks fake, it's best not being there at all. Or, better yet, don't do fake reviews.
De-indexing: Make the information inaccessible
De-indexing is another way to manage your online reputation- when neither taking the results down nor burying them beneath a mountain of more relevant results are viable, consider getting the information removed from search engines where people can search for it.
Are you a person in Europe?
If you're European, you have the right to get information about your person or corporation taken down with little to no strife so long as you can prove ownership. You can also make a DMCA claim if the information posted online infringes on your intellectual property. Finally, you can use the Google URL removal tool to attempt to get this information removed temporarily, possibly even for good.
In closing
There are tons of ways to manage an online reputation- it's not from naught that people are calling the first search engine result page of Google "the new Corporate Business Card." Keeping your online reputation clean is all about upkeep.
Reputation Attacks FAQs
Can I edit my own Wikipedia page?
No. Don't edit your own Wikipedia page because you can be geolocated, which will tip off Wikipedia editors that you edited your own page. Whenever something negative is deleted from Wikipedia, it can be assumed that the person who made the edit was doing so in their own self-interest.
What are some content removal best practices?
It is always best to work as quietly as possible when removing online content. Never resort to anger as a tactic. Instead, gauge the temperament of the original poster and try to work with them to get the content either removed or edited.
How do I push down bad search results?
Push down negative search results by creating a content plan that includes positive articles about your brand. Get these articles to rank above the negative content by including relevant keywords and promotion tactics.
What is de-indexing?
De-indexing is a way of removing negative content from search engine results. The content still exists, but Google doesn't index it, so it doesn't appear on your SERP.

Smoke the donkey, arrived in the United States Thursday and will be out of quarantine tomorrow. For those of you who don't already know Smoke, he is an Iraqi donkey who was adopted by Marines at Camp Taqaddum, Iraq, in 2008.
He became the mascot of 1st Marine Logistics Group, but Marines were forced to abandon him when they pulled out. Retired Col. John Folsom, who was the camp commandant, never forgot about Smoke. Late last year he began working to bring him to Nebraska where Folsom runs Wounded Warriors Family Support, a non-profit that helps families of troops wounded or killed in combat.
Smoke's 6,000-mile trip across the globe took him to Turkey and Germany and lasted more than a month. Folsom and Terri Crisp, who works for SPCA International, fought tooth and nail to get Smoke home, running into red tape and roadblocks the whole way.
For more details pick up next week's Marine Corps Times on newsstands Monday.
Here are a few photos from Smokes globe-trotting journey that took him from Iraq, to Turkey, to Germany, to New York.

I can't see the walls of the building but can see the tables and the food. How can I fix this?Ноември 24, 2018
All of my anti virus softwares wont let me download this. I dont get why but its redirecting me to a sketchy link.Јуни 5, 2018
@Darmil you need some sort of dlc addon for it to workЈули 7, 2017
@swan_connery I just had that problem, what I did was deleted (put into recycle bin) every mod or scripthook thing I had. I ran the game without all the mods and scripthook and it ran just fine. Then I downloaded the latest version of script hook V, put those in there, put this mod only in my gta files, ran the game, and it ran just fine with this trainer. So, it's probably one of your other mods (if you have any) or that script hook isnt updated. Hope this helped.Март 17, 2016
@jedijosh920 Awesome mod, but theres this glitch for whenever I go near an interior, it makes my game lag. I removed the mod and the problem was fixed :/
Guys, you can just use Simple Trainer for GTA V 3.4 to get the heist maps. Just go into teleports. other teleports, then at the bottom enable it. I tried this mod and it ruined my game and I almost had to redownload it.
Easiest mod menu to use, love it

Hello Seoul. Part II
Friends I made during my 5 day trip in Seoul, Korea. Taken late June 2017.
My group mates – Ogia (Papa New Guinea), Ulzii (Mongolia), Mark (Korea), Andrea (Indonesia), Daniel (Korea), Deva (Indonesia), Ron (Indonesia) and Khulan (Mongolia). A huge thanks to Daniel for taking care of our group since Day 1.
I'm still reminiscing my day in Seoul, Korea during my short visit for the Asian Cultural Young Leaders' Camp 2017 (25th June to 30th June). It seemed like yesterday but it has been almost a month since that experience. I made the conscious choice to accept the offer even though it was during the first few days of Eid Mubarak celebration. My deepest gratitude to the Korean Embassy to Brunei and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Republic of Korea for giving me this opportunity in the first place.
The hospitality was top notch and MOFA (Korea) knew how to take care of all the representatives from Asia Pacific during their stay in Seoul, Korea. We bonded on the first night with the youth from different walks of life. From Japan to Australia to Mongolia to Afghanistan, you name it. It was an emotional farewell on the final dinner before we departed back to our own countries. This is my biggest highlight of the Asian Cultural Young Leaders' Camp 2017 #ACYLC2017 #2017ACYLC – the diplomacy and friendship among different nationalities and cultures. This is a sign of world peace where all of us can get along and make a difference in the world. I just wish for longer days and freer time to further strengthen the bonds and friendship among my newly acquainted friends.
I previously shared my story on PyeongChang, the upcoming Winter Games in February 2018. Now let allow me to share my other interesting trips at Korea. First up was the visit to the Ojukheon House at Gangneung near PyeonChang, a few hours ride from Seoul. If you really keen to understand the culture of Korea, this is a must visit territory.
Ojukheon House. According to history, Ojukheon House was where Shin Saimdang (1504-1551) lived and where her son Yi I (penname Yulgok; scholar and politician of the Joseon Period) was born. It was built during the early Joseon Dynasty and remains one of the oldest wooden residential buildings in Korea. It was designated as Treasure No. 165 in 1963 and has been maintained by the descendants throughout the generations.The house is made of black bamboo trees and still holding up. The interesting fact is that Shin Saimdang is featured on the Korean Won 50,000 note and still is. Her contribution as a artist and poet back in the 16th century and she's the only lady being featured on Korean currency. If you are heading for the Winter Olympics at PyeongChang, then do visit Ojukheon House.
Seongyojang House. Another place I found interesting was Seongyojang House which was built back in the 1750s. Now why this is a unique place is because it reminds me of Air BnB. Let me share you a bit of history. It was created in 1703 by Yi Naebeon, an 11th generation descendant of Prince Hyoryeondaegun, part of the Hyoryeong royal family during the Joseon Dynasty. The idea behind Seongyojang House was to promote happiness and joy among relatives living there. Now I was told that back then, the owner of the residence would welcome guests and visitors to stay and they won't accept any form of monetary in exchange. The guests were also well fed by the host and in return, they would shower the host with gifts instead as a sign of gratitude.
I'm still surprised that the Seongyojang House is very well maintained after 300 years and has past 10 generations. The structures are still intact and well preserved and it was even selected by Korean Broadcasting System as the top 10 well preserved original dwellings in Korea. A must visit destination if you are around PyeongChang area. I'm glad that such historical places do still exist and well maintained.

Samsung Innovation Museum. According to Visit Korea, Samsung Innovation Museum (SIM) is a business hall as well as the largest sized industrial electronics museum in Korea, displaying the growing steps of Samsung Electronics Corporation at a glance. It is located inside of Suwon Digital City where Samsung Electronics Corporation was initially established 47 year ago. Starting from the time when electronics were first produced to the current trend of cutting-edge smart devices, the electronic industry has become more and more innovative. This history of innovation and the future of electronics are reflected in the museum while looking at the various exhibition halls, comprised of History of Samsung, Seeds of Innovation, Core of Innovation and Inspiring Innovation. The halls of Samsung Innovation Museum give a meaningful experience to figure out what innovation really means.
Ok, here goes my version – WWWOWWWW!!!! It's like a city of its own and I could see associates of Samsung just cycling around to get to the other building. It's also very heavily guarded so no one can simply just enter the Suwon Digital City. I seriously don't mind working in this environment and it does feel quite futuristic (like in the movies). Too bad our group only tasted 5% of the Suwon Digital City. I wanted more but I guess there are restricted area.
In the museum, you will get to learn of the history of Samsung and also other inventions by inventors and also recognizing other brands that made an impact on our daily lives through time. For instance, the birth of washing machine or vacuum cleaner which helped to cut down longer hours of house chores. We were being educated on the existence of not just phones and TVs but also on other electrical appliances that play a part in our lives.
The admission is free and you will be guided by a museum presenter. It's open from Monday to Friday but there won't be any guided tour on a Saturday. You can take pictures but no filming recording is allowed. If you are not even a Samsung fan, this place is still worth a visit. I began to appreciate all these innovations after the tour. Thank you to all the inventors for making all these technological advances possible.
At the Suwon Digital City where Samsung Innovation Museum is located. This is one of the signs on the street. So be mindful when you walk 😉
You're not allowed to take close up shots in the SIM or even video recording. But this kind of shots or selfies are welcomed 😀
Viewing the gallery while learning the important inventions which lead to our current technology
The 105" inch Samsung Curve UHD TV. The price for this is valued at USD 110,000 *Gullllpp*
Arirang's Heart to Heart show. It's not as easy as 1-2-3 to be selected to be featured on Arirang News, one of Korea's leading broadcasting news that has global reach of 138 million households. A big thank you to MOFA Korea for making this possible as I was one of the special guests for Heart to Heart show in Arirang TV. The other special guest was Ashani Yusron, a big Hallyu fan from Indonesia. The recorded show for our session will up in one or two weeks' time. Thank you to Manu (the producer) and Jennifer, the host for Heart to Heart and not forgetting our special friend, Mary.
This particular episode talks about our take of Korean culture and how it has been well received in our respective countries and also a bit of background of what we do professionally in the line of being social influencers. I shall keep you posted when the show will be set for release. Thank you once again to Arirang TV for having us on your show. This is definitely a milestone for 2017.
Thank you, Jennifer (right) for being such a sporting host
With the producer of Heart to Heart, Manu 😀
An awesome session with Jennifer. Can't wait to see the actual show
Making bimbibap. Yes, this is the real deal. I normally being served at Korean Restaurants in Brunei but this one .. this one is the real deal. You get to see the traditional way of making bimbibap. For your info, bibimbap means mixed rice and in Korea, bimbibap is served as a bowl of warm white rice and topped with namul (sauteed and seasoned veggies, gochujang (chilli paste), soy sauce or doenjang (fermented soybean paste). Other additions are such as fried egg and slice beef. Then you stir the contents inside the bowl before you eat.
That day we visited a Korean restaurant (can't remember the name) and we were given the experience to mix the bimbibap in a humungous bowl that is enough to feed at least a hundred people. I love the authentic taste of it too and the hospitality from the restaurant owners. Now being back in Brunei, I have more appreciation of how bimbibap is being served and maybe, just maybe, my expectations in terms of presentation and taste have slightly increased.
I had the privilege to stir this around. One massive bowl for bimbibap. This is how authentic it gets 😀
The customary selfie pose, of course, with bimbibap
One of the best lunches during our trip
Having fun after an awesome bimbibap lunch
Farewell dinner. The awesome about this program was that we were fed very well and also on time. The program was so structured that they made meal times a priority and also on time. I don't know how they did it but they pulled it off consistently for 5 straight days. Amazing!! Our final dinner was Seoul Marina which was like an hour away from our hotel, Koreana and we hoped for a variety of choices as we had too much of kimchi during our previous meals. And yes we did!! The food was great and it was also an emotional farewell session as a few representatives from each group shared their learning and experiences from the #ACYLC2017.
We have our own Facebook group page and it's flooded with pictures and memories. You were right, this is not a good bye but merely a transitional period where we will have newer opportunities to meet once again. It has been three weeks and it's still fresh in my memory. Thank you once again, MOFA Korea and The Korea Foundation for hosting us and this has been one of the best experiences in a long time. I hope to see more of this in the near future.
One of our cute volunteers from Korea. Thank you for helping us out.

Jinjo Crew & Coreyah
The performers with the Ministers and the Korean Ambassador to Brunei Darussalam
Finally, I managed to catch Jinjo Crew and Coreyah last night at the Indera Samudra Ballroom at The Empire Hotel & Country Club. Thanks to the Embassy of the Republic of Korea in Brunei Darussalam for the special invitation.
For your info, Jinjo Crew is a top B-Boy dance group and they won numerous accolades for their successes worldwide. The other cultural modern band was called Coreyah and they performed some nice rendition last night to the delight of the crowd.
Anyway, the event last night was a precursor to the Embassy of the Republic of Korea in Brunei Darussalam of the completion of the newly constructed building for the Diplomatic Enclave at Jalan Kebangsaan.
This was announced by Korean Ambassador to Brunei Darussalam, Cho Won-myung last night and he shared that the event will lead to more cultural exchanges that would enhance understanding between the people of Korea and Brunei.
The guest of honour for last night's event was Yang Berhormat Pehin Datu Lailaraja Major General (Rtd) Dato Paduka Seri Hj Awang Halbi bin Hj Mohd Yussof, Minister of Culture, Youth and Sports.
The next performance of Jinjo Crew and Coreyah will be this Saturday at Amphitheater in the evening. Expect more than 3,000 in attendance this weekend. You will surely be entertained 😀

Officiating the launch
From sour Kimchi and delicate sand art by "Mr Chai" to neck-breaking numbers by popular Korean group K-Tigers, the Korean Festival 2016 kicks off with a high note during its launching last Friday. Today (Sunday) will be the final day.
Held at the Times Square Shopping Centre, Berakas, the event was marked with a ribbon-cutting ceremony that was graced by the Minister of Youth, Culture and Sports Yang Berhormat Pehin Datu Lailaraja Major General (Rtd) Dato Paduka Seri Hj Awg Halbi Hj Mohd Yusof. Present were the Ambassador of the Republic of Korea to Brunei Darussalam Cho Won Myun and Times Square General Manager Amal Majidah Hj Suhaili.
During his welcoming remarks, Cho shared such events will help to facilitate cultural exchanges between two countries. "This will further strengthen the friendship between our two countries," he added. The festival was co-organised by South Korean Embassy, Times Square and Korea Foundation, and will end this Sunday.
On top of that, the public is welcomed to drop by at the ground floor atrium of the complex and participate in various activities such as the lucky draw that grants a total of four tickets to Seoul, Korea. Other activities include cooking and make-up demonstrations, Korean traditional games, K-pop dancing performance by members of Korean Cultural Club, Korean food eating contest and quizzes.

The Wailing (Review)
The movie plot. A stranger arrives in a little village and soon after a mysterious sickness starts spreading. A policeman is drawn into the incident and is forced to solve the mystery in order to save his daughter. Taken from IMDb.
I heard about the movie from my friend Simon Soo. He texted me out of the blue that and highly recommending me to catch it on DVD a few weeks ago. I never thought it would make it to Brunei screens until I read the papers yesterday. Yes, I'm a huge fan of Korean movies and I am amazed that Korean movies are being screened here and I love Train to Busan (9/10). So did Wailing live up to my expectations? Yes and no. Here goes.
The Good. The direction was great and there's always this niche about Korean directors. The story itself had different dimensions and made me guess on the motives of the antagonist or in this case,the demon (hope that ain't a spoiler). So I have to give my thumbs up to Hong-jin Na (The Chaser) who wrote and directed.
I also enjoyed how the mystery teased the audience and it kept me perplexed at same stage. Even with the dark themes involved, the director managed to inject some dark humour to it. Well, that didn't ease me that much as I was slightly disturbed by uncomfortable scenes. This is definitely not for kids with gore and violence being portrayed.
The Bad. Though I love the idea of the plot twists, they seemed to be implausible at some points. Then again, I believe the director has an intention to create thought provoking moments for movie goers and it successfully does that. I quickly used google magic to help understand further the deep meaning of The Wailing. So to me, I was left a little bemused and I'm pretty sure my interpretation could be different from others.
Like I mentioned before, I felt uncomfortable the scenes especially the demonic ones and if I were to mention in detail, then I would be sharing some spoilers. This also had long duration time, running at 156 minutes. It didn't feel as draggy but I kinda felt it was a little too long. The ending was ambiguous but I still enjoyed it nonetheless.
Verdict: None of the best Korean mystery movies but it was enough to keep me interested. I'm sure others might enjoyed it more than I did. I will definitely get the blu-ray and it's already available. If you love mystery with elements of horror and suspense, you're in for a treat. 7.5/10

Top 10 Highest Run Scorer from Nepal in 2019
Nepal played total of 20 T20 Internationals in the year 2019. Among which, Nepal won 12 and lost the 7 others. One of the match was called off due to rain. Karan KC became the only player to play all those 19 matches. His bowling and batting performance had provided Nepal wins in several occasions.
In all those 19 matches, 7 half-centuries and 2 centuries were made among which 3 half-centuries and a century belongs to the former skipper Paras Khadka. In those 50s and 100s, two records were maintained. Sundeep Jora became the youngest batsman to score a half-century in T20I. Similarly, Paras Khadka became the only skipper to score a century while chasing the target.
Here, we have brought you the top 10 list of the highest run scorer of Nepal in the year 2019 in T20 Internationals.
10. Rohit Kumar Poudel
Rohit Kumar Poudel is at the tenth position of the list. Poudel is regarded as the future of Nepali cricket. At the very young age, he had proved his worth in the national team. In 2019, Poudel batted 10 innings and had made 80 runs. This is not the stats Nepal fans wanted. His performance in mid 2019 started degrading. He is a played of great caliber.
9. Sandeep Jora
The record making batsman Sandeep Jora is in the ninth position in the list. He had made total of 101 runs in just 6 matches at the strike rate of 121.68. He made debut in the match against UAE and fired with record breaking 53 runs.
8. Sarad Veswakar
The year 2019 wasn't that much fruitful to Nepal's one of the finest batsman Sarad Veswakar. He missed majority of the Nepal's T20Is due to several reasons. However, in the matches he played, he had given his 100%. In 6 matches played, Veswakar had made 111 runs with the strike rate of 106.73. His highest score was 40 runs.
7. Sompal Kami
The bowler turned all-rounder Sompal Kami is among the top 10 highest run scorers. Kami had established himself as full time all-rounder in the team with his impressive bowling as well as batting. Kami had made 113 runs in the 12 innings he batted. His strike rate was 115.30 with best score of the year of 27.
6. Karan KC
Another bowler turned all-rounder Karan KC is at the sixth position of the run scorers. KC had played in all the 19 matches that Nepal played in 2019 and batted in 12 innings. His phenomenal strike rate of 152.72 had made him one of the finest Nepali batsman in 2019. He had made 168 runs in 2019. He entered as a fast bowler in 2019 and finished off the 2019 transferring himself into a all-rounder.
5. Aarif Sheikh
Another young batsman Aarif Sheikh is in the fifth position of the list. He played 10 matches and scored 194 runs at the strike rate of 107.18. His highest score of the year in 39 runs.
4. Binod Bhandari
The hard-hitter batsman Binod Bhandari had finished at the 4th position. He is much anticipated batsman in the Nepali team. He is also sometimes called the 'Chris Gayle' of Nepali team. However, he is yet to perform as per the expectation of the Nepali fans. He had played 17 matches and batted in 13 innings. He had made 261 runs which includes two half-centuries. He had made 51 runs in just 25 balls in the match against Malaysia. His strike rate was 123.69.
3. Dipendra Singh Airee
The newly appointed vice-captain of the national team Dipendra Singh Airee is taken as the successor of Paras Khadka. Everyone has high hopes on him and he had not left any stone unturned to prove his worth. He had batted in 16 innings and had made 287 runs. With the strike rate of 110.38, Airee's highest run scored in a match was 47 runs not out.
2. Gyanendra Malla
The skipper of the national team Gyanendra Malla is in second position in the list. Despite his criticism all over the year, Malla silenced some of his critics at the end of the year during the South Asia Games. He smashed a century against Bhutan in the SAG games. Though Bhutan is comparatively a very weak team, Malla gains back his confident from that century. He made total of 319 runs in 2019 at the strike rate of 139.30. He was also chosen as the best batsman in South Asian Games.
1. Paras Khadka
The number one position doubtfully goes to our former skipper Paras Khadka. We can call his as the best player of the decade for Nepali cricket team. Khadka is the highest run scorer for Nepal in the year 2019 with a massive 541 runs with an impressive strike rate of 145.82. Similarly, Khadka is also the seventh highest run scorer around the world in 2019. Khadka's impressive run in 2019 included 3 half-centuries and a century.
Khadka made the century against Singapore in a tri-series played in Singapore. Similarly, he made 57 against Bhutan, 68 against Kuwait and 86 runs against Malaysia.

Retro Photoshoot for Richard Haven – Classic Barber
Meet Richard Haven – Paris trained classic barber, wet shave master, luxuriant face balm dispenser, incredible barber, general gents groomer, motorcycle enthusiast – basically, the sort of mans man every man needs in his life.
This shoot was for his new website, for which I have shot plenty, before. But now Richard wanted something stylised to reflect the modern, fashion led cuts he now produces for his trend conscious customers. So, we used another customers 1961 Vespa and local clothes shop Arcade as a backdrop – on a very sunny Sunday afternoon.

As you know from my last post, Mom died in September of 2018. Our big black boxer Tui started having seizures two months later and died the following March from a presumptive brain tumor. (Presumptive because I said no to Dr. Crazy Canine Neurologist, who advocated spending $3,500 for an MRI to find out for sure so I could then subject him--the dog, not the neurologist--to brain surgery.)
When Dad saw that all was fine, he just stopped pushing. He felt weak on Sunday morning and died the following Saturday, in the early morning hours of my mother's birthday. He spoke his last words to me from a fog midweek. "Be sure to clear away the leaves." From where, Dad? "From the ground."
In October, my stepson and his wife safely delivered a beautiful baby elfin child. She too thrives, happy and loved.
And so now I see what Dorothy Gale saw. People come....people go. Sometimes, its as fast as the Wicked Witch of the East going up in smoke or the Good Witch popping down in her bubble.
I became a Bobbe (Yiddish for Nana/Grandma/Granny/Mom Mom and all that other cockamamie stuff) and an orphan in four weeks. The family I grew up with once was four...and then there was one. My other family, the one facing forward, will have three new babies within 10 months.
Other times, it is only visible out of the rear view mirror. Now, I am the next generation in line to slip away.
Hopefully, without drama.
But it is always happening. I struggled mightily with the tornado as it whirled around me. But now I accept it. In fact, it isn't a tornado, it is the way. The Way. Perhaps my acceptance comes from a daily meditation practice that seems to have at last taken root. Perhaps it comes because once again, the passage of time remains the best cure for what ails ya. I am not going to look a gift of acceptance in the mouth, that's for sure.
Ironically, like Dorothy, Himself and Molly and I are also headed to Kansas. Next month, this beauty comes into our driveway.
Just coming and going.

Mitsubishi Releases U.S.-Spec Outlander Sport Details, Photos
Timed just after the European-model Mitsubishi ASX compact crossover made its debut at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show today, the Japanese automaker has dropped the first official details and photos of the North American version, to be called the 2011 Outlander Sport (also dubbed the RVR in its domestic market of Japan).
According to Mitsubishi, the four-door compact CUV will land in U.S. showrooms this fall after a North American debut at the 2010 New York Auto Show later this month. Ending much speculation about what will actually power the Outlander Sport in the U.S., Mitsubishi says just a single engine - the automaker's 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline unit - will be available at launch, providing an average fuel economy figure of 30 mpg. Electronic all-wheel drive will also be available.
That's all the information Mitsubishi is willing to divulge just yet regarding the 2010 Outlander Sport, but stay tuned for more info in the weeks leading up to the New York auto show, where we'll be bringing you live coverage live from the show floor.

With holidays the next two weeks and a slow release schedule, this will be the last First Listen of 2014. I'll be back with the first week of good new releases in the new year.
Still, we do have one high-profile release this week:
Charli XCX - Sucker: Charli XCX has had a pretty good year, with her work on Iggy Azalea's "Fancy" and "Boom Clap" from The Fault in Our Stars, and this follows her production work with Icona Pop to boot, so she's keeping herself busy. Still, her first release in the United States didn't wow me, and so I went into Sucker with a little bit of caution. It wasn't necessary, though, because it's really a solid pop album from start to finish, with a lot of rock-solid, radio-ready tracks to go along with some interesting deeper cuts. You should listen to this anyway, but with new music being somewhat rare at the moment, it's worth putting into the rotation.

Dr. Kevin Lee's views on glucosamine as a form of supplement for osteoarthritis. – Channel NewsAsia.mainadmin
In an interview with Channel News Asia, Dr. Kevin Lee shared his views on glucosamine as a form of supplement for osteoarthritis.
Glucosamine has "no more effect than a dummy pill" in treating knee or hip arthritis pain, according to researchers from the Netherlands.
Doctors and patients were asked to share their thoughts on the joint supplement in the interview with Channel NewsAsia.
Dr. Kevin Lee, the founding partner of Pinnacle Orthopaedic Group, whom Channel NewsAsia spoke to, said he does not prescribe glucosamine supplements and has not done so for the past six years.
He mentioned that there are a significant number of orthopaedic surgeons who also do not do so as they also have known that there is no evidence in the literature that this particular supplement works any better than a placebo.
While osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis, Dr. Lee cited that knee osteoarthritis is more common in the Asian population while hip osteoarthritis is more common in the Western Caucasian population.
For those who are above 60, the cause is usually, wear and tear, while in the younger group of patients who are 50 years old and below, they usually have sports-related injuries which have been left untreated leading to premature wear and tear.
They may also be obese, leading to excessive load on the joints, Dr. Lee added.
On the multi-pronged approach to the treatment of osteoarthritis, Dr. Lee said that correction of any mechanical issues such as lower limb misalignment using braces or shoe modifications injections of a natural lubricant called hyaluronic acid into the joint is also treatment options.

the one thing my parents were always at pains to avoid, and to their great credit, i cannot recall them having imposed it upon others, was the dreaded invitation to view an endless stream of photographs from a recent holiday enjoyed by all other than those condemned to look at the photos. it seems that in the halcyon days of yore, it was customary to plan a small evening soirée for a few intimate friends, usually accompanied by a buffet of compact and bijou proportions and the inevitable cheese and wine.
the first thing those endeared of such conspiratorial excesses would do on returning from a holiday abroad, was to pop half a dozen spools of film (remember those) into boots the chemist and only a week or so later the inevitable phone call would be made. my late father was generally of fairly quick wit with sufficient experience of thinking on his feet to proffer a perfectly plausible excuse as to why he and my mother were indisposed that evening and how sorry they were to be missing it.
if such things still exist it's very unlikely that they have retained a similar format. pretty much any contemporary computer features software that will not only display a slideshow of images when hooked up to a television set, but most likely be accompanied by a soundtrack culled from the benefactor's itunes library. as if this were insufficient to offer a teeth grinding evening, there's always the likelihood that you'll be presented with a dvd of the images on your way out at the end of the night.
however, a colleague and i were discussing only the other day (shortly after he himself had returned from a european holiday) that despite the impressive number of images that can be contained on a tiny microchip inserted into the nether regions of the camera, quite some number of those were, to all intents and purposes, redundant within only a matter of days. his contention was that from a personal point of view, only a salient few need be viewed to bring back all the relevant memories of the trip. thus the hundreds, if not thousands of photographs populating the library of computer software were effectively unnecessary.
simple association with key images was really all that was needed.
in this respect, association is a key pointer. certain bicycles within thewashingmachinepost bikeshed are associated with specific terrain and/or weather conditions. the cielo, for instance, has been patiently waiting at the back of the building for long enough. though its full wood fenders may possibly have seen sterling duty over the poor excuse for a summer experienced this far west, it seemed a tad defeatist to make use of their protection at this time of year.
clothing too has its place and associations. the small collection of winter caps that have occupied the same space in the cycling wardrobe since last winter are probably soon to be brought once more into service. that means, in no specific order, cold, wet and windy, while i can already hear incessant rustling in the spare room as the softshells, hardshells and waterproofs realise their time has almost come.
but such associations are not entirely dependant on function; the brand name embroidered on the left breast of a jersey often brings connotations that were perhaps implicit during the original naming process. yanto barker's le col for instance. it's a name that invokes alpine vistas of snow topped mountains, hibernating ski-resorts and all but unscaleable passes. as this is the inner hebrides, we are sadly bereft of such challenges, but the name le col still demands that such a brand be at least periodically subjected to ascents, however paltry they may be.
it is not so long since i mentioned the rather steep, if relatively short climb at ardnahoe on the island's northern reaches. with one or two brief hints of 20%, it's probably the closest to the alps islay can offer (no sniggering at the back, please). i'm sure you can see that i had little option other than to scale its summit dressed in a striking navy blue, short sleeved jersey with the words le col embroidered on the front.
though i prefer to use the descriptor ascending, i fear the reality was far closer to grovelling, but one of the great benefits of le col's hc jersey is the ability to present the wearer as a stalwart of his profession, no matter the physical disintegration experienced on the way up. and the similarly coloured embroidered logo below the collar marks one out as a member of the cognoscenti. why else would one be dressed in le col clothing?
the fascination, for me at least, was part and parcel of those orange segments on the sleeves. constructed from a material referred to as gummy lycra shield, the inside presents a substantial grid of tiny gloopy dots that even over a merino baselayer, prevent the sleeves scrolling upwards. it does make the jersey a tad trickier to put on in the first place, but i can't deny it was fun trying.
the three rear pockets cheerfully swallowed an essentials case with compact digital camera and coffee money, a foldaway waterproof jacket, a scrunched up musette, a mini-pump and a spare pair of cycling mitts (you can never be too careful nowadays). yet in so doing, the jersey's substantial constitution kept the sartorial police at bay. though i am still one of only two people in the world who does not possess a mobile phone, smart or otherwise, according to le col, the 4th zipped security pocket is ideally sized to accept even an iphone 6.
though the fabric feels slightly heavier than expected, the full-length zip allows for adequate and adjustable ventilation, while the garment's breathability was more than good enough not to be noticeable in the heat of battle (grovelling up hills mostly). the price tag of £150 does seem to be heading towards the ever so slightly excessive, but in truth, this is one of those jerseys that should not only look every bit as good in five years' time, but its peerless construction ought to ensure that it still functions every bit as well as it did when removed from the packaging.
since all le col jerseys are italian made, it makes sense to check the size charts carefully before ordering, as they tend to err slightly on the small side. yanto barker has worked hard to produce a cycle clothing range offering a quality and fit that is every bit the equal if not surpassing that of many competing brands. his efforts quite plainly have not been in vain.
the le col hc range of jerseys retails at £150 each and is available in sizes ranging from small to xl and in colours navy/orange (as reviewed), verde/black, red/black, fluoro yellow/navy, ticker tape and blue/black.

- Starting the program with reduced credits allows you time to build your learning and time management skills during your first two quarters
- Get to know classmates and faculty sooner
- If you are returning to full-time study or don't have a strong science background, you'll be able to ease into a heavy science load
- Summer-start classes are eligible for Financial Aid! If you're interested in Summer-Start, make sure to list 12.5 credits under Summer Quarter when estimating your credit hours on your Financial Aid application.
Remote Human Physiology Course - 5 credits
The course is for MSNWHC students, and other students may complete the course as a prerequisite for other programs. The 6 credit biochemistry course is also taught remotely for students in California or Washington.
Through a partnership with Bellevue Massage School, current Bastyr University students can sign up for a 11-week Summer Massage Intensive that prepares them for massage therapy licensure.
PD School
Parkinson's Disease Summer School is offered at Bastyr's Seattle/Kenmore campus. This unique "school," facilitated by Dr. Laurie Mischley, a distinguished Parkinson's researcher and physician, will provide Parkinson's patients the opportunity to learn more about strategies that can improve their health outcomes through personalized testing, classroom instruction, interactive sessions, and more.

Glastonbury 2013
Why The Beeb's Glasto Coverage Wasn't In A Field Of Its Own
It was hard to avoid the Glastonbury Festival on the BBC this weekend, as 250 hours of welly-clad wall-to-wall coverage was splurged across three TV channels, three radio stations, online, on the red button and quite possibly projected onto your bellend when you tried to escape by taking a shower. The Beeb had nearly 300 staff down on Worthy Farm, trying to turn it into a sort of sonic Olympics. Was it worth it? I'm erring on the mud-splattered side of "no".
Don't get me wrong, I love Glastonbury. I've been a dozen times and firmly believe it's the greatest festival on earth. It just doesn't make anywhere near as good TV as the BBC seems to think. Witness the Rolling Stones' much-hyped headline set on Saturday. Critics who were there said it was magical, whereas most viewers at home went "meh" and found it a bit embarrassing, like Last Of The Summer Wine with headbands and guitars. The atmosphere just doesn't translate down the airwaves and no amount of annoying presenters gushing about "the vibe" can convince us otherwise.
Those presenters were more of a mixed bag than a scally's drug stash. Mark Radcliffe, Lauren Laverne and Stuart Maconie were all fine by me — witty, knowledgeable and just enthusiastic enough. Jo Whiley did her small-eyed sincerity thing. Craig Charles on BBC Four was a bit weird, as you half-expected him to spark up a crackpipe or start a minicab firm with Steve McDonald.
Even The One Show got in on the act, with Alex Jones and Chris Evans wandering round the site like Alan Partridge ("Properly policed. It must not, I repeat not, turn into an all-night rave"). What next? Loose Women live from Download? Cash In The Attic broadcast from T In The Park's deep-fried portaloos?
But by far the worst coverage was on BBC Three, where smug Greg James and babbling Gemma Cairney held court like a Chris Morris parody of yoof presenter inanity. They said, like, every act was amazing and epic, yeah? They conducted awkward, sycophantic interviews. They tried to be all street whenever an urban act played. They kept pleading with us to "tweet me baby and don't forget to hashtag". Roving reporter Jen Long was way better than this dire duo.
As for the acts? Hits included Dizzee Rascal, Disclosure, Haim, Vampire Weekend, Phoenix, Chase & Status, Laura Mvula, Arctic Monkeys, Foals, Strypes, Jessie Ware, Django Django, Azealia Banks, Professor Green and Rudimental, plus most of the old timers: Chic, Nick Cave, Elvis Costello, Portishead, Public Enemy, Primal Scream, Tom Tom Club, Johnny Marr, Kenny Rogers and Bobby Womack. Oh and not forgetting Wiley's tweets. "Fuck you and your farm" = genius.
Misses? Maverick Sabre (who resembled a cod-reggae potato), Example (like a charmless Faithless), Miles Kane (all suit and no tunes), Jake Bugg (an even more mediocre Miles Kane), Seasick Steve (smells), The Xx (snore), Tom Odell (double snore), Mumford & Sons (the Waitrose Wurzels) and Lumineers (the Poundstretcher Mumfords).
So cover the festival, sure. It's a cultural phenomenon and, like Wimbledon or whingeing about the weather, part of the British summer. You just don't need 300 lanyard-wearing Beeb bods on a multi-million quid jolly to do so, because it doesn't have enough mass appeal — ratings never got above 2m. Would most licence fee-payers miss it if Glasto coverage was scaled back or on Sky Arts instead? I suspect not. Hashtag that, yeah?
Luther's back — with one of the scariest scenes you'll see all year
There's been growing disquiet about violence against women in TV drama — from Scandi crime to Ripper Street, from Hannibal and The Following to The Fall. The new (and probably last) series of Luther, which starts this Tuesday on BBC1, won't do anything to quell such complaints. No spoilers, naturally, but it features a genuinely terrifying opening sequence that will have female viewers — and a fair few males — sleep a lot less easily after watching it. With the light on and 999 on speed-dial.
There seems to be a copycat fetish killer on the loose and naturally, unhinged but intuitive DCI John Luther (Idris Elba) from "Serious & Serial" is the man to find him — mainly, it seems, by striding in slo-mo through rainy council estates, hands in pockets, overcoat flowing behind him and brow knitted moodily. But this isn't a straightforward cop vs serial killer story. Moody, broody, totally dudey Luther is soon assigned to a second case: the graffiti-covered corpse of a cyber-bully.
Meanwhile, his former colleague Erin Gray (Nikki Amuka-Bird) has teamed up with a preposterously gruff Scotsman to secretly investigate Luther for corruption and turn his bromance buddy Justin Ripley (Warren Brown) against him. Luther also crashes his battered Volvo into Sienna Guillroy's car — a happy coincidence, as it enables him to show his gentle giant side with a burgeoning romance. Pouty psycho sidekick Alice Moran (Ruth Wilson) is also set to resurface.
The unforgettably creepy opening isn't the only scary scene. There's also a toe-curlingly tense one in an attic which plays with horror movie tropes and an unusual cameo role for a kitchen blender, plus a bit where Luther casually dangles a suspect off the balcony of a tower block.
Luther is grubby, macabre and cartoonishly heightened, like a cult noir graphic novel. There are gaping holes in the plot, sure, but the engrossing narrative steams right past them and it's all so stylish, slick and cinematic, you probably won't care.
Even though there's talk of a film spin-off, this four-parter might well be the last we see of Luther on the small screen. Don't miss it or I'll dangle you off a balcony.

Now, undergoing a root canal treatment will not be difficult, as researchers have developed injectable antimicrobial gel that could disinfect a tooth during a root canal procedure.
Root canal is the procedure, in which tooth's pulp and nerve are removed before the tooth is cleaned and sealed. If bacteria, viruses or yeasts contaminate the tooth, another root canal procedure or surgery must be done.
The results suggested that the gel offers extended and significantly longer residual antibacterial properties. It is biocompatible and contains a low concentration of antimicrobial elements.
The gel has been developed by Researcher Ghaeth H. Yassen from Indiana University.
"I wanted to create a gel that provides sustained antimicrobial properties even when it is removed. I also wanted it to have minimal toxic effect on stem cells and not cause tooth discoloration," he stated.
Creating an antimicrobial space is especially important during clinical regenerative endodontic procedures.
Yassen said that the gel has advantages over traditional medications, including calcium hydroxide, widely used as an antibacterial agent.
Yassen said the next steps include optimizing a version of the gel that is opaque to X-rays and other radiation, which will enable dental care professionals to track it within the root canal system.
The research appears in the Journal of Endodontics.

Get to know some of the Kale Allergy Symptoms
Any allergy increases the chances of developing other more serious ones. So it is vital to spot them early enough although it is not easy. When it comes to kale allergy symptoms like hives and eczema doctors and patients tend to attribute them to other causes. Food intolerance could be easily confused with food allergies which is a mild problem. A majority of people do not know the signs and symptoms of various allergies, and so it is important to under standard the various types of food you consume and their effect on your body. There are a number of kale allergy symptoms you should look out for in order to see your doctor for treatment.

Gaming is probably one of the easiest hobbies one may have. Compared to hobbies like sports, or learning a musical instrument, gaming can be a cake-walk. A relaxing escape for a person to be able to have fun and pass their time. However, even this task can be a very difficult ordeal for people with physical disabilities.
And this ordeal is now being tackled by numerous organizations ranging from charities like the Game Changers to Microsoft and even Logitech. The release of the Logitech G Adaptive Gaming Kit hopes to tackle disabilities and create an alternative pathway for gamers to be able to enjoy their hobbies regardless of their physical ability.
What is it?
The Logitech G Adaptive Gaming Kit lets gamers play the way that's most suitable for them by providing a set of controls that are easily configured to a wide variety of use cases. It features a large assortment of buttons and triggers with gaming-grade components for performance and durability, manufactured to the highest standard, at a price point that is far more accessible than what is on the market today.
The gaming kit itself features numerous buttons, triggers, and light touch buttons. It also has hook and loop pads to attach them to. The kit comes with a rigid and flexible hook and loop pad allowing it to be placed on a wide variety of surfaces. The Logitech G Adaptive Gaming Kit comes with two large buttons, two variable triggers, and four light touch buttons.
It also comes with decal sheets so that the buttons can be individually labeled as per requirement. It was designed in collaboration with Microsoft's Inclusive Tech Lab, AbleGamers, Mount Sanai's Abilities Research Center, and SpecialEffect to ensure that it would be the perfect Kit for users with a wide range of disabilities.

Price and Availability
The Logitech Adaptive Gaming Kit goes hand-in-hand with the Xbox Adaptive Controller which was announced by Microsoft last year. The controller was meant to be a customizable input method for gamers with disabilities. It featured two large buttons and a traditional D-pad with numerous ports allowing users to connect the attachment that fits their needs.
The Logitech G Adaptive Gaming Kit is available for purchase on LogitechG.com and through select Microsoft retail stores for $99.99. In order to use the kit, you must have the Xbox Adaptive Controller which is available on Xbox.com.

A statement issued by the office of the Supreme Religious Authority of World's Shia Muslims, Grand Ayatollah Sistani, regarding his meeting with the Grand Pontiff, the Pope
In the name of God, The Most Compassionate, The Most Merciful
This morning, His Eminence Sayyid Al-Sistani met with the Supreme Pontiff (Pope Francis), Pope of the Catholic Church and Head of State of the Vatican.
During the meeting, the discussion revolved around the great challenges that humanity faces in this era and the role of faith in God Almighty and His messages, and commitment to high moral values in overcoming them.
His Eminence talked about the injustice, oppression, poverty, religious and intellectual persecution, suppression of basic freedoms and the absence of social justice, especially the wars, acts of violence, economic blockade, displacement and so on, especially the Palestinian people in the occupied territories.
His Eminence indicated the role that the great religious and spiritual leaders should play in curbing these tragedies, and what is hoped for by urging the concerned parties - especially those with great powers - to prioritize reason and wisdom and to reject the language of war, and not to promote their self-interest over the rights of the people to live in freedom and dignity, and stressing the importance of concerted efforts to consolidate the values of harmony, peaceful coexistence and human solidarity in all societies, based on fostering rights and mutual respect among followers of different religions and intellectual trends.
His Eminence praised the status and glorious history of Iraq as well as its people from various faiths. He also expressed his hope that Iraq would surpass its current ordeal soon. He affirmed his interest in Christian citizens living like all Iraqis in peace and security while preserving all their constitutional rights.
Grand Ayatollah Sistani also pointed out part of the role that the religious authority played in protecting Iraqis and all those who had suffered injustice and harm in the incidents of past years, especially during the period during which the terrorists seized vast areas in several Iraqi provinces where they carried out criminal acts there.
His Eminence wished the Supreme Pontiff, the followers of the Catholic Church, and the general public of humanity good and happiness, and thanked him for making the effort to travel to Najaf to make this visit.
21 Rajab 1442 A.H.

Glucose tab manufactures are cruel, taking advantage of us when we're at our weakest moments. That's why they make them taste like sweetened drywall, dye them pink, and pass them off as "watermelon-flavored".ReplyDelete
They can't get ONE MORE CARB into that little disc?ReplyDelete
To much math for a low brain. Seems to justify why I sometimes choose.to inhale 4 peanut butter sandwiches instead. LolReplyDelete
Actually, in the early days of glucose tablets, there WERE 5 gram tablets. BD made a horrible-tasting orange flavored square tablet that contained 5 grams, but those were discontinued a few years ago. My suggestion is consider getting Dex4 GlucoBits, which are nice little 1 gram tablets that you can supplement your 3, 4-gram tablets for an even 15. Alternatively, consider the Dex4 LiquidBlast bottles. Not only can you avoid ruining your molars, but these are like dextrose shot glasses!ReplyDelete
Scott - were those the ones you popped out of the foil, and they came in sets of two? I remember those! And I do love the bits; they taste much better to me.ReplyDelete
Also, LOL at "shot glasses". :)ReplyDelete
- StephenSMarch 16, 2012 at 11:10 AM
Kim, I'm right with you on this one. And with Scott about ruining your molars. Why are they always hard as a rock? Seems to be something designed (and then copied over and over) by a non-PWD...ReplyDelete
Love the blog, by the way!
I know what you mean but just be glad you have access to cheap glucose tablets. Here in Ireland a packet of 10 glucose tabs costs the equivalent of $6. In the States you can get 2-3 BOTTLES of tabs for that same amount!! So when family comes to visit us that's one of the things on the list for them to bring.ReplyDelete
Love the blog! I have my 13 yr old Type-1 diabetic daughter reading it as well.
In Germany they have tabs with 6g each, so you can only choose between 12 and 18g. They are easy to part in two, so you can get 15g exactly, but than you would have to throw away half a tablet (you can't keep them, because they come in thin, non-reusable plastic wrappings)ReplyDelete
- and which sugar-craving diabetic would ever do that?!
On the other hand, one gram more makes your BG go up, what, 4 points more?
I just stick to jelly babiesReplyDelete
Love it! Haha. Glucose tabs are expensive here in NZ too, so I use 12g carb juice boxes, often followed by a 22g muesli bar chaser for steady slow blood sugar raising. Glucose tabs should be 15g carbs, soft and easy to dissolve in mouth. Not rock hard and powdery! Choking hazard if ever there was one, really.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousMarch 16, 2012 at 8:12 PM
Am I the only one here who actually LIKES glucose tabs??!?!?! And honestly, it's about as often as we have a blue moon that I only eat 15(or 16g) worth of them. I like the orange best. They're like candy to me.ReplyDelete
Ok, the weirdo is going to go sulk in the corner now. With his glucose tab candies.
Things that make you go Hmmmmm.....ReplyDelete
Totally need dissolvable tabs! They could even get fizzy or make sounds like Pop Rocks.
Way funner.Replies
Hey, how many carbs are in Pop Rocks? You might be onto an amazing alternative to glucose tablets. I'm low. I have Pop Rocks. Yay!Delete
I love the facial expression and arms up on the "what gives". LOL!ReplyDelete
What do they want, us to do math while we're low?!
I think we've all been hoodwinked by the marketing team for those old BD 5g tabs... Think about it! THEY made the rule, influenced the HCP's, and it's been spreading like Diet Coke at a d-meetup ever since.ReplyDelete
lol yeah your face in 'what gives' looks like the smiley face in chris' recent parking meter post!ReplyDelete
Most glucose tabs (mine included) weigh just a little more than 4 grams, which means that 4 grams is all you can fit into something that size (unless you compressed it into something that would chip your tooth and take an hour to dissolve), and have a little space for flavors/colors/excipients. You could make a bigger tablet, like the BD's were, but for those to be 5g and round, they would be 25% thicker. Technically they could have a larger diameter, but I have yet to find a tablet manufacturing facility that has a die larger than 1" diameter. All that being said, as someone who uses tablets often, I also always found it odd that 4g was the standard (and chose to perpetuate it only because it was what everyone was used to). I will say that I have noticed that the ADA now recommends "15-20g" to treat a low. While I RARELY use 20g, it is neatly divided by 4, and 16g does fall inside the 15-20g range.ReplyDelete
That's why I carry Rockets around, you know, the candy kids eat? Each package is 7 g, so I treat with two, and you can totally stock up major at Halloween!ReplyDelete

|Accurate Measurement of Small Execution Times -- Getting Around Measurement Errors
|Publication Type
|Journal Article
|Year of Publication
|Moreno, C., and S. Fischmeister
|Embedded Systems Letters (ESL)
Engineers and researchers often require accurate measurements of small execution times or duration of events in a program. Errors in the measurement facility can introduce important challenges, especially when measuring small intervals. Mitigating approaches commonly used exhibit several issues; in particular, they only reduce the effect of the error, and never eliminate it. In this letter, we propose a technique to effectively eliminate measurement errors and obtain a robust statistical estimate of execution time or duration of events in a program. The technique is simple to implement, yet it entirely eliminates the systematic (non-random) component of the measurement error, as opposed to simply reduce it. Experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Congressman Thomas Massie, opposed by midwits everywhere, but cheered by lovers of freedom and science, has been a voice of reason over the past year and a half. Watch and listen as Tom Woods discusses with him, Biden vaccine mandates and what people can do.
The tweet pinned to the top of Congressman Massie's Twitter account reads:
"Inserting needles and chemicals into people without their consent is violence. Depriving them of their basic human rights because they won't give consent is also violence. Those who promote either should be ashamed."
Make sure to follow him on Twitter @RepThomasMassie
ANALYSIS/OPINION: Congressman Massie really nails it on the 1969th episode of The Tom Woods Show. Watch and listen for an amazingly accurate description of Biden's attempted dictatorship and know what your rights are. We must not give in and allow ourselves to be bullied or threatened into putting something into our bodies that we are opposed to. Whether you support the vaccine or not, this is a total violation of our Constitutional rights and our personal freedoms.
