What are your hours of operation?
We are open Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm Eastern, excluding US holidays.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, and PayPal. All payments must be made in US dollars.
How do I pay for an order with PayPal?
Browse the store and add items to your cart. When you go to checkout you'll be presented with two options: You can choose to pay with a credit card or you can use your PayPal account. If you choose to pay with PayPal, you will be presented with a PayPal login window. You will be asked to select a preferred payment method, such as a bank account or credit card that is linked to your account. If you have a PayPal balance, it will be used before any other payment method. Follow the instructions to complete the payment.
Was my credit card/PayPal account charged twice?
When you place an order, we obtain an "authorization" from your credit card company or PayPal. This merely confirms that the funds necessary to pay for the order are available. We do not actually collect your payment until your order has shipped. More likely than not, you're seeing this initial authorization as well as the actual payment if your order has recently shipped. Neither PayPal nor most credit card companies do a very good job displaying/explaining these different types of transactions when you're viewing your account online. Rest assured that the temporary authorizations with soon disappear. If you are still concerned that you may have been double-charged after at least one business day, then we encourage you to contact your credit card company or PayPal to confirm that, in fact, a duplicate transaction has occurred. In the unlikely event that this has happened, contact us with your order # and we will investigate and resolve the issue.
How much does shipping cost?
The cost of shipping can vary greatly depending on the particular items you'd like to purchase, the location where you'd like your order shipped, and the type of shipping service that your prefer. You can get a quick shipping & handling estimate by putting the items in your cart, then supplying some address information on the View Cart page. We'll show you a number of options. During the actual checkout process, you can choose exactly which shipping method works best for you.
I live in the USA. When will my order arrive?
Orders with in-stock items typically ship within one to two business days, however some items may take some additional time to fulfill for various reasons. If a product does have a different expected turnaround, the product's description will outline this as "usually ships within X number of business days". If your order is time sensitive, please be sure to contact us to see if any component of your order may take longer. When your order does ship, we'll send you an email. If for some reason you didn't receive an email or can't check your messages, you can login to your account and check your order status. The shipping notification email and your account will show when your order sent out. If you chose to have your order delivered by UPS, then congratulations -- you won a tracking number. UPS can tell you where your packages are and when you should expect them. Track that sucker from UPS.com or their iPhone app, etc. If you chose "Standard Shipping", then expect your order in about 5-10 days. While we do use Delivery Confirmation to know that your order has arrived, the USPS doesn't offer the same real-time tracking as UPS. Unless you've paid for one of the premium shipping methods that guarantees delivery times, then any and all "expected delivery dates" are only estimates. Additionally, the UPS Expedited services do not consider weekends or holiday as "business days" (Ex. 2nd Day Air shipped on Thursday will not arrive until Monday). There are many external forces out there that can slow up your order, but everyone is trying to get you your goods ASAP.
Will you ship an order to country XYZ?
While we try to offer shipping to as many countries as possible, we simply cannot ship to every part of the world. The reasons range from import restrictions or high duties & taxes to excessive fraud or lost packages. The list of countries that we accept orders from can change a few times a year, so you may want to check back from time to time. The quickest way to determine if we can ship to your country is to put an item in your cart and visit the View Cart page. Check the list of countries in the "Calculate Shipping" section on that page.
I live outside of the USA. When will my international order arrive?
Orders with in-stock items typically ship within one to two business days, however some items may take some additional time to fulfill for various reasons. If a product does have a different expected turnaround, the product's description will outline this as "usually ships within X number of business days". When your order does ship, we'll send you an email. If for some reason you didn't receive an email or can't check your messages, you can login to your account and check your order status. The shipping notification email and your account will show when your order sent out. If you opted to pay for a recommended trackable service, such as a DHL option, then you can use the tracking number to see the expected delivery date. The US Postal Service offers no such tracking. Also, while most USPS First Class and Priority shipments arrive within a few weeks and without a problem, it is difficult to provide you with a more accurate timeframe. Further, it is impossible for us to determine how long it will take for a shipment to clear customs. This can delay delivery and is completely out of our control. If your shipment does not arrive after a few weeks, simply contact us with your order #. We will review reports of lost shipments on a case-by-case basis.
Do you have a sizing chart?
We are currently working on this. Different items may be printed on different apparel brands, so one sizing chart will not suffice. If sizing information is not yet available in the description of an item you are interested in, simply contact us with the item name and item # and we'll reply with the dimensions.
When will my order ship that contains a pre-order item?
Your order will not ship until all the items are available. If you order a pre-order item and an item that is currently available for shipping, then we will wait until the pre-order item is available. If you wish to receive your other items before your pre-order item is available, then please place a separate order. We will always try to have a pre-order shipped out by the release date. Unfortunately, from time to time we may be waiting for a label or manufacturer to send us items for the pre-order. If this is the case, trust that we are doing everything in our power to obtain the items in order to fulfill your order as quickly as possible. If your pre-order is pending after the release date and you would like to know the status of the order, please feel free to contact our customer service.
When my pre-order shipped I got an email saying my card was declined. Wasn't my card charged when I first placed the pre-order?
According to rules and regulations set forth by the Payment Card Industry (PCI) we are unable to charge a customer's credit card for an e-commerce order until the order has shipped. So when you first place your pre-order, we will obtain an "authorization" from your bank or credit card company to confirm that the funds are available, just like any other order (see the question above "Why have you charged my credit card/PayPal account twice?") . Credit Card authorizations are typically valid for 30 business days before it expires and drops off your account (almost like it never happened). We do not actually capture the payment until the pre-order has been released and the order has been shipped. So make sure those funds are available prior to the pre-order release date! If you chose to pay via Paypal we will typically capture the funds up front. If for some reason we are unable to capture the funds, we will try again on the release date. The Paypal authorization can fluctuate, so we'll have to send a new payment request if the authorization expires. If you are unsure whether or not you have been charged for the order just contact us with the order number and we will investigate.
I would like to ship my order to a PO Box. Can I ship UPS?
No, UPS does not ship to US Postal Service PO Boxes. If you choose UPS Ground as your shipping method and your shipping address is a PO Box, we will make the switch to USPS Priority Mail (which typically ships within 3-5 business days) and adjust your shipping costs accordingly. If you choose an expedited UPS shipping option (such as UPS 3 Day Select or UPS 2nd Day Air), we will contact you to determine if you would like to provide an alternative shipping address or switch to USPS. If we do not receive a response from you within 48 hours we will adjust your shipping to USPS Priority Mail and adjust your shipping costs at that time.
I received my zipper hoodie, and the graphic over the zipper seems defective.
Although we do offer products that have prints that go over zippers, it is not a perfect process in the print industry. Please understand that this can yield inconsistent results and slight imperfections (example: gaps along seams). If you feel that you have received a damaged product, please contact us to review.
How do I cancel my pending order?
Sign In to your account, then in your account select the order number under "Your Order History". Inside of the order click on "Cancel Order" and then confirm "yes". You will not be charged for your order. If your order was paid for in advance, you will be refunded. Please use our contact form if you have any questions.
Will an International Shipment be charged Duties and Taxes?
Shipments destined outside the United States may require additional duties or import taxes to be paid on delivery. The customer is responsible for the payment of all such fees. We cannot mark shipments "Gift" on customs forms, nor can we adjust the value of the items in the shipments. Unfortunately it is very difficult or impossible for us to estimate the duties and taxes your country may charge you. If you have any questions, please contact your local officials. International shipments do not have a guaranteed delivery time. The standard shipping service may take anywhere from one to several weeks and does not have location tracking. The expedited shipping option typically arrives in about 5-10 business days and includes location tracking.
Can I update my shipping address?
If your order has not shipped out yet we can update your shipping address. Please contact customer service with your order number and the new address. Once we have updated it we will confirm that that the address has been updated. If your order has already been shipped out we may be able to do a delivery intercept on one of our expedited shipping options. If we are able to do the delivery intercept, you will incur an intercept fee. Standard shipping does not allow for delivery intercept.
USPS hasn't updated my tracking in a few days, what should I do?
Because we utilize a number of shipping partners, sometimes USPS tracking numbers aren't updated when the package changes carriers. Additionally the USPS is only required to provide a delivery confirmation. For a more accurate depiction of where your order is, try entering your tracking number here. Please keep in mind, Standard Shipping generally takes 7-10 business days.

When the North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il died two years ago, his son Kim Jong Un rose to power. The world knew practically nothing about the young and untested leader. In fact, nobody knew exactly how young he was until his birth date was revealed by a man who goes by the pseudonym Kenji Fujimoto, Kim Jong Il's former sushi chef and longtime confidante.
Writer Adam Johnson won a Pulitzer this year for his novel set in North Korea. And he recently conducted a series of interviews with the chef, who now lives in Japan. The insights Fujimoto shared appear in a GQ article out this morning.
And Adam Johnson joined us to talk about it. Welcome to the program.
ADAM JOHNSON: It's my pleasure to be here.
MONTAGNE: Now, this sushi chef, Kenji Fujimoto, he would have an almost unheard of knowledge of this incredibly secretive regime and the mysterious dictator who's running things, just by being the chef there at his side. How did he find his way, originally, to the inner circle?
JOHNSON: Kenji Fujimoto was a young sushi chef in Japan. He grew up under violent circumstances. Fujimoto escaped to go to the capital. He proved himself extremely loyal and as such, he was a candidate to take a mysterious job overseas. His trade union of sushi chefs required him to accept the job before they told him exactly where it was. And he was a young, adventurous, trusting man who was obedient to authority, and he went. And it turned out the job was in Pyongyang.
MONTAGNE: The job was in Pyongyang and for a dictator who, as he tells it, had an incredible level of decadence.
JOHNSON: That's true. Kenji Fujimoto's story is the most rare of tales. There's really two North Koreas. There's a countryside, with extreme privation, where people are really fighting for their lives; and those are the people who tend to defect. So we have a great portrait of what it's like to live in poverty and repression, in North Korea.
The elites, in Pyongyang, rarely defect. So their stories are much more elusive. So Kenji Fujimoto did go into the inner circles. He spent more than a decade as Kim Jong Il's personal chef, and he was sent on missions around the world - to Iran, for caviar; he would go to Belgium, for beer. And yes, he's the source of most of what we know about Kim Jong Il's life, including his $700,000-a-year cognac habit.
MONTAGNE: Why did he trust Fujimoto?
JOHNSON: Kim Jong Il always had, in his life, a need to be able to confide in one person, and Fujimoto was an outsider who never learned Korean - therefore, couldn't betray his confidences - and who was relatively ignorant about North Korea and could trust Kim Jong Il's version of reality.
MONTAGNE: Well, it's interesting too, again, as he describes it to you, there were these exquisite levels of fear. One thing that you write about is that Kim Jong Il put people through loyalty tests. Tell us the story about the jet ski race.
JOHNSON: Kim Jong Il had what he called guesthouses - which were really palaces; they were all over the country. And it was actually Kenji Fujimoto who suggested that Kim Jong Il get jet skis. One time he said to Fujimoto, hey, let's race. Kenji Fujimoto was very afraid, but Kim Jong Il reassured him. He said, let's make it a real race and don't worry. So Kenji Fujimoto - probably - foolishly believed that. And as the two of them set out to race their jet skis to a small island, Fujimoto gunned it and won.
All the executives of Kim Jong Il told him that he was now a dead man; that he was a fool, and he was going to be killed for it. And while Kim Jong Il wasn't happy, it did instill in him a sense of independence in his outsider friend; that he could be trusted for real opinions. And after that, he did turn to Fujimoto for independent advice.
MONTAGNE: And then during this long and close relationship with Kim Jong Il, he also befriended his sons. And of course, the son we know a little bit about is the new leader of North Korea, Kim Jong Un, who just had a visit from Dennis Rodman. But that actually goes back to Fujimoto, according to his stories.
JOHNSON: Kim Jong Il deeply trusted Fujimoto, so much so that he made Fujimoto the nanny for his boys - including Kim Jong Un, who was only 7 at the time. Fujimoto would teach them boy activities that they've never heard of, like video games and roller-skating, and things like that. But most importantly, he thought the boys should learn basketball.
He had Kim Jong Il make a court, and he got videotapes. And the tapes he got were the Bulls' championship run in which Michael Jordan, Dennis Rodman and Scottie Pippen became the best in the world. And this is what young Kim Jong Un looked up to, and these players became his heroes.
MONTAGNE: Right. So - you know, cut to today, and you have this really strange story of this American basketball player ending up in Pyongyang. So Fujimoto, he has left North Korea several times. He has always gone back. What did he tell you pulls him back?
JOHNSON: Kenji Fujimoto is a man who in the real world - in our world - is an average man. He doesn't have a job. He doesn't have much salary. But in North Korea, he's a super elite. And so I think he is really drawn to that materialistic, powerful life in which he's at the center of things. And yet that's a life where you're not free, and where danger abounds. So he's torn between true freedom and high living.
MONTAGNE: But did he ever indicate that he understood how bad off the rest of the country was?
JOHNSON: He was at Kim Jong Il's side daily. Kim Jong Il was afraid of flying, so he only moved around the country on his bulletproof train. And Fujimoto said that the only sense of the deprivations of the country came by looking out the windows of the train. And he said that Kim Jong Il would look out the windows and see very thin, starving people wasting away on the sides of the road. But that's as close as Kenji Fujimoto came to the true reality of North Korea.
MONTAGNE: I suppose one could say didn't want to know.
JOHNSON: Well, it makes the cognac taste not so sweet, if you understand where the money came from to buy it.
MONTAGNE: Adam Johnson's article on Fujimoto is out in GQ today. His novel, set in North Korea, is called "The Orphan Master's Son." Thanks very much for joining us.
JOHNSON: My pleasure.
MONTAGNE: And this is MORNING EDITION from NPR News. I'm Renee Montagne.
And I'm Linda Wertheimer.

Denture Relines
New dentures will typically fit your mouth very securely as it has been designed specifically for your gums. As time goes on, your gum tissues will change and the fit of the denture will become more loose and thus more prone to movement inside your mouth. Having the denture professionally relined every one to two years will keep the denture secure and functional.
Hard Denture Reline
All full dentures should have a hard reline every two years. Marcus Torrey, DDS removes a layer of plastic from the dentures interior surface, and then fills the denture with a putty-like material which conforms to the contours of your mouth creating an accurate impression. The denture is sent to the lab where it is adjusted to the new shape of your gum tissue. This results in maximum contact between the denture and your mouth.
Soft Denture Reline
Some patients are unable to wear ordinary dentures because of tender gums or sore spots. Marcus Torrey, DDS may recommend relining the denture with a material that stays pliable for one to two years before needing replacement. This material is much less likely to give the patient sore spots than the standard hard reline acrylic. Patients experiencing these problems may also consider a more permanent solution of implant retained dentures.
Temporary Relines
If dentures have not been serviced in quite some time, a patient's gums may be red, swollen, or misshapen. This creates problems in taking impressions for a new hard or soft reline and may lead to a denture that would perpetuate the problem.
A temporary, or palliative (medicated) reline material may be recommended to allow the inflammation to subside. This reline makes the denture fit much more tightly, and is usually soft and pliable. After a few weeks, the gums return to a more normal state. The patient is then ready for his new denture or hard reline.

Here you can see a detailed look at the forecast for the next 48 hours. Note that the base for this is our Meteogram product, which shows a good average forecast for Attenweiler (Biberach, Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany).
However, you can also look at our compact prediction based on any other model that forecasts for your chosen location.

This plot displays the 14 day temperature forecast for your selected location, Attenweiler.
The red numbers show the expected high temperature for a given day, while the blue numbers show the expected low temperature. Because forecast uncertainty increases with time, we also display the range of possible high/low temperature outcomes, shown as the shaded red/blue regions. The actual high/low temp could fall anywhere in that shaded region, and the larger the shaded regions are, the higher the forecast uncertainty is.
Current weather - Here we've put together a glance at all the most important information about the current weather in Attenweiler (Biberach, Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany). You can see with the radar HD if precipitation is falling at the moment, or headed towards Attenweiler soon.

Our HD satellite images of Attenweiler will show you whether there's sunshine currently in the area, or if clouds are making for a more gloomy day. Finally, current observations will tell you what current temperatures look like around Attenweiler at the moment, as well as if it's humid and/or windy.
Forecast for the next few days - The weather forecast for Attenweiler is available in several different versions, all clearly and simply displayed here on the Weather Attenweiler page. For the short term, we have data based on a single weather model that is known to deliver the best forecast for Attenweiler. For the longer term, we have forecasts for the next two weeks based on an analysis of many different possible forecast outcomes that will give you a sense of not just what's most likely, but how the forecast could change in future updates as we get closer to any given date. If the range of possible outcomes is narrow, you can have high confidence in the forecast. If the range is wide, you know there's more uncertainty, and to not give too much credence to any one possible forecast outcome. We also have other products such as Meteograms and Forecast XL elsewhere on our site to give you additional options for figuring out the forecast for Attenweiler.

Rita S.
I would recommend DFY Reno to anyone looking for quality bathroom designs! Their team has been so professional from start to finish. From the initial drawings to actually carrying out the installation, by new bathroom design is absolutely stunning. Thank you DFY Reno!
Steven N.
I couldn't be happier with the designers at DFY Reno. We had no idea what we wanted for our new bathroom, but they were able to provide a range of ideas and drawings to help us in the right direction. They were happy to answer any of our questions and made sure we were comfortable with every decision. We wouldn't turn to anyone else for a new bathroom design and I'm so glad we trusted them!
Caroline L.
My bathroom was never my favourite room in the house, and now I can happily say that it is! DFY Reno took on our project and produced a beautiful design and the entire process couldn't have been easier. I don't think we'll be needing a new bathroom design for a while, but if we do, DFY Reno would be the first people I call.

A compressor/limiter is a type of amplifier in which gain is dependent on the signal level passing through it. You can set the maximum level a compressor/limiter allows to pass through, thereby causing automatic gain reduction above some predetermined signal level, or threshold. Compression refers, basically, to the ability to reduce, by a fixed ratio, the amount by which a signal's output level can increase relative to the input level. It is useful for lowering the dynamic range of a vocal, making it easier to be heard over the air without distortion.
For example, if you move around in front of the microphone during a QSO, making the output level vary up and down unnaturally. A compressor can be applied to the signal to help correct this phenomenon by reducing the louder passages enough to be compatible with the overall signal.
How severely the compressor reduces the signal is determined by the compression ratio and compression threshold. A ratio of 2:1 or less is considered mild compression, reducing the output by a factor of two for signals that exceed the compression threshold. Ratios above 10:1 are considered hard limiting.
As the compression threshold is lowered, more of the input signal is compressed (assuming a nominal input-signal level). Care must be taken not to over compress a signal, as too much compression destroys the acoustic dynamic response.
Limiting refers to the processing that prevents the signal from getting any louder (that is, it prevents any increase in the signal's amplitude) at the output.
Vocals usually have a wide dynamic range. Transients (normally the loudest portions of the signal) can be far outside the average level of the vocal signal. Because the level can change continuously and dramatically, it is extremely difficult to ride the level with a console fader. A compressor/limiter automatically controls gain without altering the subtleties of the transmission.
The compressor has 6 setting knobs for:
Input Threshhold: Where the compressor should start kicking in level wise.
Ratio: Audio level reduction 1:1 to 1:12
Attack: Time before the compression kicks in
Release: Time to hold gain after the compression kicked in
Limiter: Extra limiter to limit output spikes
Output: Make up gain
The plug-in has an A/P switch for (A)ttached and (P)ass through
The compression can be done on RX audio and TX audio or TX audio only by selecting the R/T switch.

Veterans with Disabilities: Getting Started
When a service member is released from active duty, the Department of Defense notifies the US Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The VA then sends a letter with information about VA benefits and assistance to aid in the transition to civilian life. However, especially for veterans with disabilities, finding out about and applying for services is often difficult. The following are links to resources that may help you in getting started with finding and applying for services that you and your family may qualify for.
Know your rights: The U.S. Department of Justice offers a publication that explains the rights of returning service members with disabilities under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and provides information on where to get assistance. Read the publication: ADA: Know Your Rights – Returning Service Members with Disabilities. See also the VA's Patient and Nursing Home Resident Rights and Responsibilities.
In Ohio: Contact your County Veterans Service Office. The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services – Veterans with Disabilities Resources also provides information.
Apply online: The VONAPP (Veterans On Line Application) website is an official U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) website where service members, veterans and their beneficiaries, and other designated individuals can apply for benefits online. Check for other programs to apply for on the VA's eBenefits website.
Call the VA: You can call the VA at 1-800-827-1000 (for benefits information) and 1-877-222-8387 (for health care eligibility information). You can also visit the VA's Returning Service Members Web site.
Apply for Social Security benefits: The Social Security Administration offers expedited processing of disability claims for veterans and military personnel who became disabled while on active military service on or after October 1, 2001. Social Security benefits are different than those from the VA and require a separate application. For more information visit theDisability Benefits For Wounded Warriors section of Social Security's Web site.

By adding together the eye movement data from a group of test subjects, we can learn where most people look in a given picture.
To create the image below, the eye-tracking technology recorded the scanpath data of sixteen different subjects and compiled the information into composite images, called heatmaps. The red and orange colors show where 80-100% of the subjects halted their gaze. The bluer or darker areas show where hardly anyone looked.
Here's the heatmap for the painting Marketplace of Ideas, which we discussed in the last two posts.
It turns out that there was very little interest in either of the main vertical columns. Instead, the red splotches reveal a concentration of interest in the figures. There were secondary interest areas in the far buildings and the sign in the upper right.
The interest in people, especially faces, appears to reflect a hardwired instinct to understand our fellow humans.
In the heatmap for Chasing Shadows, which shows a group of children running along a beach with a Brachiosaurus, there's a strong focal point around the dinosaur's front feet and the nearby running children.
There are secondary points of interest at the dinosaur's head and the leading child. Note how the action of the walking pose was read without directly looking at the rear leg.
Other spots of interest congregate around the dinosaur's tail, the base and the top of the tree, and the vanishing point along the beach.
Hardly anyone looked directly at the sky, the upper palm fronds, or the middle section of the palm trunk. But these areas were presumably perceived in the halo of peripheral vision around the center point of vision.
Have a look at this painting, and be aware of where your eyes travel.
The heatmap for the painting Camouflage (click to enlarge) shows that everyone noticed the dinosaur's face. They also spotted the hidden man and the small pink dinosaur.
According to statistical data connected to timing, these three faces drew almost everyone's attention within the first five seconds. The dinosaur's face was statistically the first thing most people looked at, followed quickly by the hiding man. Below is one subject's scanpath, with the black numbers counting off seconds.
I was surprised that the two patches of lichen on the tree above the man scored near 100% attention. Evidently viewers noticed these strange shapes in their peripheral vision and checked them to make sure they weren't important, or somehow a threat to the man. From a narrative standpoint, I suppose they were a bit of a red herring, distracting with no payoff.
The sunken log and the detailed patch of leaves in the lower left drew 60% of the viewers, perhaps because those were likely places for other dangers to hide.
Just because an element has sharp detail or strong tonal contrasts, it doesn't necessarily attract the eye. The dark branches behind the dinosaur's head drew almost no attention because they fit into the natural schema of a forest scene. Apparently the viewers developed a search strategy based on the threatening situation of a hungry dinosaur looking for a bite to eat.
These experiments force us to question a few of our cherished notions about composition and picture-gazing.
1. The eye does not flow in smooth curves or circles, nor does it follow contours. It leaps from one point of interest to another. Curving lines or other devices may be "felt" in some way peripherally, but the eye doesn't move along them.
2. Placing an element on a golden section grid line doesn't automatically attract attention. If an attention-getting element such as a face is placed in the scene, it will gather attention wherever you place it.
3. Two people don't scan the same picture along the same route. But they do behave according to an overall strategy that alternates between establishing context and studying detail.
4. The viewer is not a passive player continuously controlled by a composition. Each person confronts an image actively, driven by a combination of conscious and unconscious impulses, which are influenced, but not determined, by the design of the picture.
5. The unconscious impulses seem to include the establishment of hierarchies of interest based on normal expectations or schema of a scene. For example, highly contrasting patterns of foliage or branches will not directly draw the gaze unless they are perceived as anomalous in the peripheral vision.
5. As pictorial designers we shouldn't think in abstract terms alone. Abstract design elements do play a role in influencing where viewers look in a picture, but in pictures that include people or animals or a suggestion of a story, the human and narrative elements are what direct our exploration of a picture.
As Dr. Edwards succinctly puts it, "abstract design gets trumped by human stories." The job of the artist, then, in composing pictures about people is to use abstract tools to reinforce the viewer's natural desire to seek out a face and a story.

How to make your own deodorant
My weekend of celebrating with the folks was excellent. And sure enough, my mom (known to many of you as Grandma G) embarked on a DIY deodorant project. She came across someone selling homemade deodorant nearly a year ago, tried it out, and found that it actually kept stinkiness away better than store brands. Plus most popular brands of deodorant contain aluminum, so if you can avoid stuffing metal into your pores, that seems like a good idea. After using a few types of natural deodorants and figuring out which ingredients she prefers, Mum decided to make her own. Here's the recipe we arrived at this weekend.
1/4 cup baking soda ($1.19 for a box)
1/4 cup arrowroot powder ($5.99 for 20 oz.)
4 tablespoons unrefined coconut oil ($6.00 for 15 oz.)
10 drops/shakes grapefruit essential oil ($9.99 for 0.5 oz.)
A tin or jar with lid
In a bowl, stir together dry ingredients, then add oils gradually until you like the consistency, mixing with a fork. Store in a closed container at room temp. (If the mixture seems too soft, try refrigerating it for a bit to firm it up.)
To apply, scoop up a bit with your finger, hold it against your skin for a couple seconds so it melts a little, then rub around.
The recipe above should last 4 or 5 months. We bought all the ingredients at Whole Foods. A jar of coconut oil is shelf stable for two years, who knew? So this stuff ought to provide a couple years' worth of deodorant. Try using any essential oil scent you like, but pick something that smells good mixed with coconut—the coconut oil contributes scent, too.
Update: Mum sent some notes to address questions in the comments.
From Grandma G:
"IT WORKS! Best deodorant I've ever used... beats store-bought hands down. Needs only be applied once/day. In fact, I once went 3 days without reapplying (don't ask why), and still no odor.
One recipe I found did not include essential oil, but essential oils have antibacterial properties, and bacteria is what causes the odor. You could try leaving it out and see how it does, if you want. The baking soda is also to absorb odor.
The coconut oil scent is very light and fades fast after applying. I don't smell it at all on my underarms... just a light grapefruit oil scent. I don't know how much you'd smell the coconut oil if you didn't add essential oil, however.
You could try cornstarch in place of the arrowroot powder, which is mainly to thicken and absorb moisture. I don't know if there'd be any difference or not. A commentor brought to our attention that cornstarch may contribute to yeast infection, so I would recommend using arrowroot powder if possible.
I have never had a problem with this deodorant leaving marks on my clothes. The oil is pretty much absorbed into your skin. You could try waiting a bit before getting dressed for it to absorb, if your underarms feel oily. Just remember... it doesn't take much for it to work.
As for adding vodka, I have no idea! I don't sweat heavily, so it's kind of hard for me to say how well this recipe works as an antiperspirant, but the description of the original stuff I'd bought said that the coconut oil is water proof, helping to seal in the sweat. I kinda have my doubts on that. But you "heavy sweat-ers" will have to let me know.
Please post back with comments on how well it works for you. I'd love to know!"
Update #2: If your new deodorant is making you itchy, read this helpful article about pH balancing.

Renovating your home is exciting, but it can also be overwhelming if you don't have a solid gameplan in place. We know you're probably itching to dive in, but it's critically important to spend time on the planning and preparation phase, which is where is any home renovation project starts. Think of your plan like the foundation of your home: it supports everything else, so it has to be done right. Once you've identified your top tasks and priorities — for example, whether you need to get any permits, or how you're going to allocate your budget — you should hire an experienced professional for help executing your vision. Hiring a professional, such as an electrician, plumber, or flooring installer, ensures better safety, better efficiency, and in the long run, better value.
Depending on your renovations, upgrades to one room could impact another — literally. For example, removing a wall will affect other rooms, which makes it important to get the order right. However, the "best" or "correct" order is different for every project, because every renovation involves different steps and tasks. Some renovations are deep and extensive, while others are light and cosmetic. Whether you just want to spruce things up with some style updates, or you're looking for a complete home makeover, your flooring is a great place to start. Floors tie a room together, set a mood for the space, and in some cases, even increase property values. At Flooring America, we offer hardwood, ceramic tile, bamboo, carpet, luxury vinyl, stone, and more. For a free estimate on your home renovation project, contact us online today, or visit one of our convenient retail locations.
The timeline to replace flooring depends on what types of floors are being covered or removed, what they're being covered or replaced with, and the size of the affected area. Our professional carpet and flooring installation team will be in and out of your home before you know it. We work around your schedule, making the carpet installation process stress-free and convenient to fit your lifestyle. If your home is ready for a makeover, ask Flooring America about our carpet installation services at a store near you today.

Product 2/5
S. C. Gwynne's Empire of the Summer Moon spans two astonishing stories. The first traces the rise and fall of the Comanches, the most powerful Indian tribe in American history. The second entails one of the most remarkable narratives ever to come out of the Old West: the epic saga of the pioneer woman Cynthia Ann Parker and her mixed-blood son Quanah, who became the last and greatest chief of the Comanches.
Although readers may be more familiar with the tribal names Apache and Sioux, it was in fact the legendary fighting ability of the Comanches that determined just how and when the American West opened up. Comanche boys became adept bareback riders by age six; full Comanche braves were considered the best horsemen who ever rode. They were so masterful at war and so skillful with their arrows and lances that they stopped the northern drive of colonial Spain from Mexico and halted the French expansion westward from Louisiana. White settlers arriving in Texas from the eastern United States were surprised to find the frontier being rolled backward by Comanches incensed by the invasion of their tribal lands. So effective were the Comanches that they forced the creation of the Texas Rangers and account for the advent of the new weapon specifically designed to fight them: the six-gun.
The war with the Comanches lasted four decades, in effect holding up the development of the new American nation. Gwynne's exhilarating account delivers a sweeping narrative that encompasses Spanish colonialism, the Civil War, the destruction of the buffalo herds, and the arrival of the railroads—a historical feast for anyone interested in how the United States came into being.
Against this backdrop Gwynne presents the compelling drama of Cynthia Ann Parker, a lovely nine-year-old girl with cornflower-blue eyes who was kidnapped by Comanches from the far Texas frontier in 1836. She grew to love her captors and became infamous as the "White Squaw" who refused to return until her tragic capture by Texas Rangers in 1860. More famous still was her son Quanah, a warrior who was never defeated and whose guerrilla wars in the Texas Panhandle made him a legend.
S. C. Gwynne's account of these events is meticulously researched, intellectually provocative, and, above all, thrillingly told. Empire of the Summer Moon announces him as a major new writer of American history.

STACS: Science, technology and civil society
The issue of civil society involvement in research has not received enough attention. But the European vision of a knowledge-based society demands an early dialogue between scientists, policy makers and civil society. To this end, the STACS project will seek to bridge the gap between research and civil society and find common projects to work on for the future.
More specifically, the STACS project will provide:
- training sessions on socially important scientific issues to build the capacity of civil society,
- workshops to identify interesting research topics for cooperation, especially in the European Commission 7th framework programme,
- a web site to provide a platform for exchange between civil society and scientists,
- an analysis of the European research system and raising awareness of and for civil society,
- opportunities for the members of the European Parliament to get engaged in the promotion of civil society in research.
The partners participating in this project is Association pour la création d'une Fondation Sciences Citoyennes (coordinating), European Public Health Alliance, Réseaux Semences Paysannes, Greenpeace UK, DEMOS, and Institut Mensch, Ethik und Wissenschaft from France, Belgium, United Kingdom, and Germany.
FSFE Contributions
The FSFE participates in the project to provide the necessary competence on Free Software and related fields. We will organise a capacity building session for civil society on Free Software, as well as a workshop for researchers and civil society both to identify projects related to Free Software to work on.
The first capacity building session, Free Software as a Social Innovation took place in London on the 2nd of November 2007. The workshop Free Software Research and Civil Society took place in Belgrade on the 4th of December 2007.
FSFE's activities for the STACS project are coordinated by Jonas Öberg.

ZimbabweThe percentage of adults living with HIV/AIDS in Zimbabwe is 14.70% while in India it is 0.30%. 39,500 people in Zimbabwe and 135,500 people in India die from AIDS each year.
This entry gives an estimate of the percentage of adults (aged 15-49) living with HIV/AIDS. The adult prevalence rate is calculated by dividing the estimated number of adults living with HIV/AIDS at yearend by the total adult population at yearend.
CIA World Factbook
Zimbabwe has an unemployment rate of 95.00% while India has 7.30%
This entry contains the percent of the labor force that is without jobs.
CIA World Factbook
The life expectancy at birth in Zimbabwe is 55.68 while in India it is 67.80.
This entry contains the average number of years to be lived by a group of people born in the same year, if mortality at each age remains constant in the future. The entry includes total population as well as the male and female components. Life expectancy at birth is also a measure of overall quality of life in a country and summarizes the mortality at all ages. It can also be thought of as indicating the potential return on investment in human capital and is necessary for the calculation of various actuarial measures.
CIA World Factbook
145 in every 100,000 people are currently imprisoned in Zimbabwe compared to 33 in India
This entry contains the number of people in penal institutions, including pre-trial detainees. Comparability is hampered by differences in local practice, including whether psychiatrically ill offenders are under the authority of the prison administration. People held in a form of custody not under the authority of a prison administration are not included in this figure.
International Centre for Prison Studies
The GDP per capita in Zimbabwe is $600 while in India it is $4,000
This entry shows GDP on a purchasing power parity basis divided by population as of 1 July for the same year. A nation's GDP at purchasing power parity (PPP) exchange rates is the sum value of all goods and services produced in the country valued at prices prevailing in the United States. This is the measure most economists prefer when looking at per-capita welfare and when comparing living conditions or use of resources across countries. The measure is difficult to compute, as a US dollar value has to be assigned to all goods and services in the country regardless of whether these goods and services have a direct equivalent in the United States (for example, the value of an ox-cart or non-US military equipment); as a result, PPP estimates for some countries are based on a small and sometimes different set of goods and services. In addition, many countries do not formally participate in the World Bank's PPP project that calculates these measures, so the resulting GDP estimates for these countries may lack precision. For many developing countries, PPP-based GDP measures are multiples of the official exchange rate (OER) measure. The differences between the OER- and PPP-denominated GDP values for most of the wealthy industrialized countries are generally much smaller.
CIA World Factbook
The number of deaths of infants under one year old in a given year per 1,000 live births in Zimbabwe is 26.55 while in India it is 43.19.
This entry gives the number of deaths of infants under one year old in a given year per 1,000 live births in the same year; included is the total death rate, and deaths by sex, male and female. This rate is often used as an indicator of the level of health in a country.

7.50 in every 100,000 people are murdered annually in Zimbabwe compared to 3.30 in India
This entry contains the number of victims of an unlawful death purposefully inflicted on a person by another person. Data is originally sourced from either criminal justice or public health systems.
United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime
The per capita consumption of electricity in India is 565kWh while in Zimbabwe it is 912kWh
This entry consists of total electricity generated annually plus imports and minus exports, expressed in kilowatt-hours. The discrepancy between the amount of electricity generated and/or imported and the amount consumed and/or exported is accounted for as loss in transmission and distribution.
CIA World Factbook
India consumes 0.1134 gallons of oil per day per capita while Zimbabwe consumes 0.0588
This entry is the total oil consumed in gallons per day (gal/day) divided by the population. The discrepancy between the amount of oil produced and/or imported and the amount consumed and/or exported is due to the omission of stock changes, refinery gains, and other complicating factors.
CIA World Factbook
The GINI index measures the degree of inequality in the distribution of family income. In Zimbabwe it is 50.10 while in India it is 36.80.
This index measures the degree of inequality in the distribution of family income in a country. The index is calculated from the Lorenz curve, in which cumulative family income is plotted against the number of families arranged from the poorest to the richest. The index is the ratio of (a) the area between a country's Lorenz curve and the 45 degree helping line to (b) the entire triangular area under the 45 degree line. The more nearly equal a country's income distribution, the closer its Lorenz curve to the 45 degree line and the lower its Gini index, e.g., a Scandinavian country with an index of 25. The more unequal a country's income distribution, the farther its Lorenz curve from the 45 degree line and the higher its Gini index, e.g., a Sub-Saharan country with an index of 50. If income were distributed with perfect equality, the Lorenz curve would coincide with the 45 degree line and the index would be zero; if income were distributed with perfect inequality, the Lorenz curve would coincide with the horizontal axis and the right vertical axis and the index would be 100.
CIA World Factbook
The annual number of births per 1,000 people in Zimbabwe is 32.47 while in India it is 19.89.
This entry gives the average annual number of births during a year per 1,000 persons in the population at midyear; also known as crude birth rate. The birth rate is usually the dominant factor in determining the rate of population growth. It depends on both the level of fertility and the age structure of the population.
CIA World Factbook
With its 13,771,721 people, Zimbabwe is the 71st largest country in the world by population. It is the 61st largest country in the world by area with 390,757 square kilometers.
The UK annexed Southern Rhodesia from the [British] South Africa Company in 1923. A 1961 constitution was formulated that favored whites in power. In 1965 the government unilaterally declared its independence, but the UK did not recognize the act and demanded more complete voting rights for the black African majority in the country (then called Rhodesia). UN sanctions and a guerrilla uprising finally led to free elections in 1979 and independence (as Zimbabwe) in 1980. Robert MUGABE, the nation's first prime minister, has been the country's only ruler (as president since 1987) and has dominated the country's political system since independence. His chaotic land redistribution campaign, which began in 1997 and intensified after 2000, caused an exodus of white farmers, crippled the economy, and ushered in widespread shortages of basic commodities. Ignoring international condemnation, MUGABE rigged the 2002 presidential election to ensure his reelection. In April 2005, the capital city of Harare embarked on Operation Restore Order, ostensibly an urban rationalization program, which resulted in the destruction of the homes or businesses of 700,000 mostly poor supporters of the opposition. President MUGABE in June 2007 instituted price controls on all basic commodities causing panic buying and leaving store shelves empty for months; a period of increasing hyperinflation ensued. General elections held in March 2008 contained irregularities but still amounted to a censure of the ZANU-PF-led government with the opposition winning a majority of seats in parliament. MDC-T opposition leader Morgan TSVANGIRAI won the most votes in the presidential polls, but not enough to win outright. In the lead up to a run-off election in late June 2008, considerable violence enacted against opposition party members led to the withdrawal of TSVANGIRAI from the ballot. Extensive evidence of violence and intimidation resulted in international condemnation of the process. Difficult negotiations over a power-sharing "government of national unity," in which MUGABE remained president and TSVANGIRAI became prime minister, were finally settled in February 2009, although the leaders failed to agree upon many key outstanding governmental issues. MUGABE was reelected president in June 2013 in balloting that was severely flawed and internationally condemned. As a prerequisite to holding the elections, Zimbabwe enacted a new constitution by referendum, although many provisions in the new constitution have yet to be codified in law.

Ask Creative Smiles at WingHaven if our services are right for you
Make an AppointmentWhat is Cosmetic Bonding?
Cosmetic bonding is a cost-effective cosmetic dental procedure in which a dentist applies a tooth-colored composite resin to one or more of your teeth to repair damage. Serving as a practical alternative to crowns and veneers, cosmetic bonding uses a shade guide to help you choose a color that matches your natural teeth. After that, we roughen the surface of the tooth, and apply a liquid that allows the bonding agent to stick! Finally, we apply the composite resin over the liquid, molds, or shapes the tooth, and then hardens the material with UV light.
While your teeth are naturally very strong, accidents can happen. Teeth bonding can help repair chipped teeth while preventing future damage. Is it the right move for you? Keep reading, or contact Creative Smiles at WingHaven in O'Fallon, Missouri today at 636-561-6035 for more information!
Is Cosmetic Dental Bonding Right for You?
Teeth bonding has the best value among cosmetic dental procedure options. Unlike veneers and crowns, which may require a lab, bonding can be done onsite, unless several teeth require attention. Another advantage of bonding, when sized up against veneers and crowns is that it removes the least amount of tooth enamel.
Due to some of its limitations, cosmetic bonding is best used as a solution for short-term cosmetic correction, and for correcting teeth in areas of very low bite pressure such as the front of your teeth. Typically, bonding material lasts from 3-10 years before a replacement or touch-up is required.
Dental bonding may be recommended for several reasons:
- repairing chipped or cracked teeth
- fixing gaps in teeth
- concealing discoloration
- changing your tooth shape to match the rest of your smile
- protecting part of a tooth's root caused by a receding gumline
How Long Does Dental Bonding Last?
Bonding on the front teeth can last between 4 and 8 years, but it may need to be replaced in as little as 3 and as many as 10 years depending on the bond's location, your bite, and your eating habits. After the 8-year mark, your dentist will assess the bonding site to determine if the bond needs to be replaced, retouched, or if it is fine as is.
While some circumstances regarding your bond's shelf-life may be entirely out of your control, there are certain things you can do to give your bond the best chance of longevity. It's usually better to avoid biting directly into your food, particularly hard consumables that can compromise the dental bonding structure. Your bonding's lifespan will depend largely on how serious you take your oral hygiene.
How to Care for Bonded Teeth
Bear in mind, many materials are as strong as your natural teeth, including composite resin. Avoid activities that might damage your teeth such as chewing on ice, writing utensils, and your fingernails.
Bruxism (teeth grinding) can also damage the bonding resin by grinding it down quicker than normal, run-of-the-mill wear and tear. If you are a bruxer, consider investing in a mouth guard or night guard, either through our office or a third party. Bonding your front teeth typically requires minimal prep-work, so anesthesia is unnecessary unless there is an old restoration or decay present. The tooth is layered with a conditioning gel to help the bonding material stay put. The resin is then applied and hardened with a UV light.
While your bond repairs the tooth initially, good oral hygiene is still required for long-lasting effects. Excessive hard foods and candies can also cause damage to your bond, so it's best to avoid them since these are not great for regular teeth either. Whitening gels won't harm anything, but you may see some discoloration as your tooth's appearance changes, but your bond remains identical.
The process works best for healthy teeth that have suffered minor damage or trauma. You should also be content with your teeth color before getting your bond, so discuss teeth whitening with your dentist in preparation for your bond if it's something that's on your mind.
What to Expect from Dental Bonding
First, we use a shade guide to select a resin shade that most closely matches the natural color of the tooth. Before attaching, the surface of the tooth is sanded down and lightly coated with a conditioning liquid so that the bonding material will more easily stick. Once preparation is complete, we will apply the resin to the tooth and mold it to fit. The material is subsequently hardened using an ultraviolet light. After this, we will apply the finishing touches.
A single-tooth bonding procedure usually takes between 30 to 60 minutes from start to finish, but may require several visits to complete if more than one tooth requires work. Because most tooth bonding procedures require no anesthetic, you can commence daily activities after we're done.
Cosmetic Bonding Preparation and Procedure
Minimal preparation is needed for dental bonding on your end, outside of practicing standard oral hygiene. As long as you show up with your teeth brushed and flossed, you are good to go! If it is almost time for your biannual dental cleaning around the time of your procedure, you might consider moving up that cleaning and scheduling it beforehand.
To kick off your bonding appointment, your dentist will select a shade that best matches up with your teeth to prepare the resin. The actual composite resin is a pliable, putty-like material that can be molded into countless shapes. Local anesthesia may be necessary if a nerve is nearby the site of the procedure, but no anesthesia is typically needed for surface repairs. The bonding procedure then starts by making the surface of the tooth coarser and more susceptible to the bonding material. The dentist will subsequently apply a fluid to help the resin stick to your teeth. Next, they will apply and mold the resin into shape. After smoothing it down, they will use UV waves to cure and harden the resin in only a few seconds.
