Irish Cream Pudding Parfait
From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite... When Irish eyes are smiling...Our youngest grandson has a smile that lights a room and, at the ripe old age of two, has passed Blarney 101 with a proficiency that suggests he has an Irish soul. This year his treat on St. Patrick's Day will be lime Jello, but I thought it would be fun to post recipes for dishes I know he and our other grandsons will enjoy as they get older. So, I hope you're ready for a week of Irish treats, some of which are authentic and actually come from the old sod. The remainder are simply delicious and will be included because they reference Irish history or use an unmistakably Irish ingredient. I wanted to start with the most outrageous of the bunch. This parfait is expensive and fairly difficult to make. It also uses a lot of heavy cream that many of you will object to. All that being said, I think your time and money will be well-spent and those of you who try this in small portions will be really pleased. This is a keeper that is worth the occasional calorie splurge. The recipe I use came from News Canada and it is a simplified version of a dessert that was developed for Bailey's Irish Cream liqueur. Irish cream can easily be made at home and I've included a link below for those of you who would like to make your own. It is possible to replace some of the heavy cream used to make this parfait with light cream or half-and-half, but I don't recommend it. This was meant to be an extravagant once a year indulgence. There are other healthier treats coming later in the week for those of you find this dessert too rich. Here's how this pudding parfait is made.
Irish Cream Pudding Parfait...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite courtesy of newscanada.com .
1-1/2 cups heavy cream, divided
3/4 cup Irish cream liqueur, divided
3/4 cup lightly packed brown sugar
6 egg yolks
Pecan Crunch
1-1/2 cups coarsely chopped toasted pecans
4 large oatmeal cookies, crumbled
1-1/3 cups toffee bits
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Pinch cinnamon
1) To make pudding: Combine 1 cup heavy cream, 1/2 cup of liqueur, brown sugar and egg yolks in top of a double boiler. Place over a saucepan of simmering (not boiling) water; do not let bottom of bowl touch the water. Using an electric hand mixer, beat until mixture is thick enough to coat back of a wooden spoon, or until a thermometer registers 160 degrees F, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat and continue to beat until cool; about 6 minutes. Mix in remaining liqueur. In a separate bowl, beat remaining whipping cream to form medium peaks. Fold into pudding mixture. Cover and chill for at least 6 hours and up to 2 days. Mixture will thicken as it chills.
2) To make pecan crunch: Combine pecans, oatmeal cookies and toffee bits in a bowl. Set aside.
3) To make topping: In a separate bowl, beat together whipping cream, vanilla and cinnamon to form medium peaks. Set aside.
4) To serve: Layer each of six dessert glasses with 1/4 cup of pudding and top each with 2 tablespoons of pecan crumble. Repeat layering once more. Top with a dollop of whipped cream and another 1 tablespoon of pecan crumble. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 hour before serving. Yield: 6 servings.

Autumn A Collection of Poems, Songs, and Stories for Young Children Wynstones Press, Introduction by Jennifer Aulie ISBN: 9780946206483 Book (Paperback) Wynstones Press $14.95
"A rich resource for anyone working with young children." —Joan Almon, Waldorf Early Childhood Association of North America
Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter contain a wide variety of poems, songs, and stories of the seasons and many contributions for festivals. The volume titled Spindrift contains material for use throughout the year, including more than forty stories, many different cultures around the world. Gateways contains sections on morning, evening, birthdays, and fairy tales. Based on work in Waldorf kindergartens, these six books provide invaluable material for working with young children and will be useful for Waldorf teachers, home schoolers, and parents alike. First published more than twenty years ago, these books are in their third edition, now reedited and with much new material added. In addition, the music has been comprehensively edited, with most songs now in the scale of D-pentatonic, which is particularly suited to pentatonic lyres and may be played on any traditional seven-note or twelve-note instrument. Each volume includes an enlightening introduction by Jennifer Aulie on music in the "mood of the fifth." The covers are all illustrated in watercolors by David Newbatt, with the four seasonal titles each depicting a different worker.

Scheer to restore order, fairness, and compassion to Canada's immigration system
A new Conservative government will restore public confidence in Canada's immigration system by stopping the flow of illegal border crossers from the United States and prioritizing newcomers from the world's most dangerous countries, Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer said.
"Canadians' confidence in the immigration system has been rocked by Justin Trudeau's chaos and mismanagement," Scheer said. "When everybody follows the rules and the laws are enforced, immigration is good for the economy, good for jobs, and good for the people who have chosen to come to Canada.
As Prime Minister, I will take steps to restore confidence in the system and make sure Canada's immigration system prioritizes those who need Canada's help the most."
As Prime Minister, Andrew Scheer will:
- Prioritize funding to support immigration services like language training, credential recognition, as well as services specifically designed for vulnerable newcomers like women, girls, and members of the LGBTQ+ community.
- Prioritize those who apply to come to Canada through the appropriate immigration streams, especially in the family reunification program.
- Close the loophole in the Safe Third Country Agreement.
- Move existing Immigration and Refugee Board judges to common illegal border crossing points, speeding up the process and therefore making it less attractive to enter Canada illegally.
- Hire an additional 250 CBSA enforcement officers.
- Listen carefully to provinces on immigration issues, with an aim to work closely to best accommodate their needs and priorities. A Conservative government would be ready to negotiate with the Government of Quebec to discuss the selection of those who wish to settle in Quebec. We will be open to requests to amend the Canada-Quebec Accord on Immigration.
"These measures will restore fairness and compassion to our immigration system while providing stronger enforcement of the law at the border," said Scheer. "If these measures aren't taken, confidence in immigration will continue to slide and legitimate refugees will wait longer and longer for Canada's help."
- In 2017, Justin Trudeau created an illegal border crossing crisis in Canada with his #WelcomeToCanada tweet, resulting in more than 50,000 illegal border crossers entering Canada and costing taxpayers $1.6 billion.
- A poll in August 2018 found that 65% of Canadians believed the massive influx of illegal border crossers was a "crisis."
- Justin Trudeau has compensated Roxham Road residents $400,000 of taxpayer money for "disruptions" from those crossing the border illegally.
- Canada is built on a rock-solid foundation of enduring values, democratic institutions, the rule of law, and fundamental and universal human rights, and these values must be reflected in our immigration system.
- Only a Conservative government will restore compassion and fairness to Canada's immigration system while protecting and securing our borders.
- Scrap the Trudeau Carbon Tax, lowering the cost of everyday essentials like gas, groceries, and home heating.
- Introduce the Universal Tax Cut, saving an average couple $850.
- Take the GST off home heating costs, saving your family $107 every year.
- Introduce the Green Public Transit Tax Credit, saving a family of four who take transit up to $1,000.
- Make maternity benefits tax-free, putting up to $4,000 back in the pockets of new parents.
- Introduce the Children's Fitness Tax Credit, allowing parents to claim up to $1,000 for sports activities.
- Introduce the Children's Arts and Learning Tax Credit, letting parents claim up to $500 for arts and learning programs.
- Expand the Age Credit, benefiting the lowest income Canadians the most and giving a senior couple up to $300.
- Boost government-matching to RESPs by 50%, helping parents get more for their kids' education.
- Introduce the Green Home Renovation Tax Credit, putting up to $3,800 back in the pockets of Canadians for green home improvements.

Apple Onion Bread with Cheddar Cheese
From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...This is a wonderfully savory bread that can be made by beginners, but it's so flavorful I suspect that experienced bakers will try it as well. Mary Woodruff develop this prize winning recipe for the Vidalia Onion Festival. A "cheat" gets the recipe off to a quick start. A packaged hot roll mix is used as a base for the loaf. What makes this bread a standout are the ingredients added to the dough. Purists can add those "extras" to a homemade dough and achieve the same results. This is the winning recipe.
Apple Onion Bread with Cheddar Cheese...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite
1 tablespoon butter
1 large apple, diced
1/2 cup chopped sweet onion
1 (16-oz.) package hot roll mix
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons chopped red bell pepper
1 tablespoon caraway seeds
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 cup hot water
1) Melt butter in a small skillet set over medium heat. Add apple and onion and saute until tender. Set aside.
2) Place contents of roll mix in a large bowl. Open yeast package and whisk into flour. Stir in cheese, red pepper and caraway seeds; mix well. Add egg, water and apple-onion mixture; mix with a wooden spoon until mixture pulls away from sides of bowl.
3) Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface; knead for 5 minutes.
4) Return dough to bowl; cover with plastic wrap and let dough rest for 5 minutes.
5) Grease a 6 to 8 cup bread pan. Place dough in pan; cover with plastic wrap and let it rise for 30 minutes.
6) Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
7) Bake the bread for 30 to 35 minutes, until golden brown and loaf sounds hollow when thumped. Yield: 1 loaf.
I'm linking this recipe to Wild Yeast for the weekly Yeast Spotting event.

If you're searching for drama, don't limit yourself to Netflix. Instead, tune in to the real estate market, where the competition among buyers has never been fiercer. And with homes selling for record highs,1 the appraisal process—historically a standard part of a home purchase—is receiving more attention than ever.
That's because some sellers are finding out the hard way that a strong offer can fizzle quickly when an appraisal comes in below the contract price. Traditionally, the sale of a home is contingent on a satisfactory valuation. But in a rapidly appreciating market, it can be difficult for appraisals to keep pace with rising prices.
Thus, many sellers in today's market favor buyers who are willing to guarantee their full offer price—even if the property appraises for less. For the buyer, that could require a financial leap of faith that the home is a solid investment. It also means they may need to come up with additional cash at closing to cover the gap.
Whether you're a buyer or a seller, it's never been more important to understand the appraisal process and how it can be impacted by a quickly appreciating and highly competitive housing market. It's also crucial to work with a skilled real estate agent who can guide you to a successful closing without overpaying (if you're a buyer) or overcompensating (if you're a seller). Find out how appraisals work—and in some cases, don't work—in today's unique real estate environment.
An appraisal is an objective assessment of a property's market value performed by an independent authorized appraiser. Mortgage lenders require an appraisal to lower their risk of loss in the event a buyer defaults on their loan. It provides assurance that the home's value meets or exceeds the amount being lent for its purchase.
In most cases, a licensed appraiser will analyze the property's condition and review the value of comparable properties that have recently sold. Mortgage borrowers are usually expected to pay the cost of an appraisal. These fees are often due upfront and non-refundable.2
Appraisal requirements can vary by lender and loan type, and in today's market, in-person appraisal waivers have become much more common. Analysis of the property, the local market, and the buyer's qualifications will determine whether the appraisal will be waived. Not all properties or buyers will qualify, and not all mortgage lenders will utilize this system.3 If you're applying for a mortgage, be sure to ask your lender about their specific terms.
If you're a cash buyer, you may choose—but are not obligated—to order an appraisal.
An appraisal contingency is a standard inclusion in a home purchase offer. It enables the buyer to make the closing of the transaction dependent on a satisfactory appraisal wherein the value of the property is at or near the purchase price. This helps to reassure the buyer (and their lender) that they are paying fair market value for the home and allows them to cancel the contract if the appraisal is lower than expected.
Low appraisals are not common, but they are more likely to happen in a rapidly appreciating market, like the one we're experiencing now.4 That's because appraisers must use comparable sales (commonly referred to as comps) to determine a property's value. These could include homes that went under contract weeks or even months ago. With home prices rising so quickly,5 today's comps may be lagging behind the market's current reality. Thus, the appraiser could be basing their assessment on stale data, resulting in a low valuation.
When a property appraises for less than the contract price, you end up with an appraisal gap. In a more balanced market, that could be cause for a renegotiation. In today's market, however, sellers often hold the upper hand.
That's why some buyers are using the potential for an appraisal gap as a way to strengthen their bids. They're proposing to take on some or all of the risk of a low appraisal by adding gap coverage or a contingency waiver to their offer.
Appraisal Gap Coverage
Buyers with some extra cash on hand may opt to add an appraisal gap coverage clause to their offer.It provides an added level of reassurance to the sellers that, in the event of a low appraisal, the buyer is willing and able to cover the gap up to a certain amount.6
For example, let's say a home is listed for $200,000 and the buyers offer $220,000 with $10,000 in appraisal gap coverage. Now, let's say the property appraises for $205,000. The new purchase price would be $215,000. The buyers would be responsible for paying $10,000 of that in cash directly to the seller because, in most cases, mortgage companies won't include appraisal gap coverage in a home loan.6
Waiving The Appraisal Contingency
Some buyers with a higher risk tolerance—and the financial means—may be willing to waive the appraisal contingency altogether. However, this strategy isn't for everyone and must be considered on a case-by-case basis.
It's important to remember that waiving an appraisal contingency can leave a buyer vulnerable if the appraisal comes back much lower than the contract price. Without an appraisal contingency, a buyer will be obligated to cover the difference or be forced to walk away from the transaction and relinquish their earnest money deposit to the sellers.7
It's vital that both buyers and sellers understand the benefits and risks involved with these and other competitive tactics that are becoming more commonplace in today's market. We can help you chart the best course of action given your individual circumstances.
There's never been a market quite like this one before. That's why you need a master negotiator on your side who has the skills, instincts, and experience to get the deal done…no matter what surprises may pop up along the way. If you're a buyer, we can help you compete in this unprecedented market—without getting steamrolled. And if you're a seller, we know how to get top dollar for your home while minimizing hassle and stress. Contact us today to schedule a complimentary consultation.

AMD's newest R680 graphics processor might look a whole lot like the ill-fated R600 GPU, but the reality couldn't be more bizarre. Instead of one 80nm behemoth-of-a-GPU, the R680 consists of two 55nm processor cores.
Representatives from AMD would not confirm that the R680 is essentially two RV670 GPU cores on the same board, though the company did confirm that each core has the same specifications of an RV670 processor.
The RV670 graphics core, announced last November with the Phenom processor, is the first 55nm desktop graphics adaptor. AMD does not target this card as a high-end adaptor, though reviewers were quick to herald the RV670 as AMD's best product of 2007.
The company also made quick mention of the RV620 and RV635 GPU cores. These cores are nearly identical to the previous RV610 and RV630 processors, but will be produced on the 55nm node instead.
All three of AMD's new GPUs are scheduled to launch next month.
Dual-GPU technology is not new. 3dfx's flagship Voodoo 5 family also resorted to multiple processors to achieve its relatively high performance. ASUS, Gigabyte, Sapphire, HIS and PowerColor all introduced dual-GPU configurations of just about every graphics processor on the market, though these were never "sanctioned" ATI or NVIDIA projects. Ultimately, all of these projects were canned due to long development times and low demand.
Cross-state rival NVIDIA isn't sitting on idle hands though, either. The company publicly announced plans to replace all 90nm G80 graphics cores with G92 derivatives by the end of the year. G92's debut introduction, GeForce 8800 GT, met wild support from reviewers and analysts alike. G92's second introduce, GeForce 8800 GTS 512MB, was met with similar but less enthusiastic acceptance during Tuesday's launch.
NVIDIA's newest roadmap claims the DirectX 10.1 family of 65nm processors will also hit store shelves this Spring. The chipsets — codenamed D9E, D9M and D9P — are architecturally different from the G80/G92 family.

We recognize the fact that financial stability is what most of us aim to have. Whether you are single, married, a student, a business owner, or a fresh graduate about to step into the corporate world, financial freedom is in everyone's desires. Unfortunately, whatever circumstance you are in, debts are almost unavoidable, seeing as there will always be instances when we may lack the finances to provide what we need or want. As a result, consumers usually take out loans, given that they would be able to pay it back.
However, some people find it difficult to manage their money and may end up in a sea of debt. However, always remember that it is perfectly fine to admit that you need some form of assistance in this department. That is exactly where the debt experts of Optimal Debt Solutions will help you.

However, know that consulting with a debt repayment assistant may get you the help you badly need to avoid going bankrupt.
Structuring your repayment schedules and identifying the appropriate loans you can make without compromising yourself financially is among the many things our debt experts can help you with.

Repayment for Every Debt in Dundee
No states are exempt when it comes to consumer debt, and people continue to experience underlying issues when dealing with their finances. Residents in Dundee, MI have managed to keep their debt levels lower than the national average rate, but don't let this fool you. The past several years' unemployment rate has drastically affected the residents' abilities to finance their day-to-day living expenses and to repay their loans.
To help its residents avoid mistreatment when dealing with finances, there is an array of laws in place in Dundee. You may also consult our very own debt experts to be able to help you understand and effectively manage your financial matters.
Some of the things we can help you with are the following:
Federal Student Loans
Student loans enable struggling students to be able to continue their studies in the hopes of being able to repay this in the future, mostly after completing their studies. Postponed payments, lower payment amounts, and—in some cases—loan forgiveness are generally allowed with federal student loans.
There is repayment flexibility in these kinds of loans, which may cater to the student's circumstance. This can be extremely helpful, especially in instances where you, the recipient, faces a financial or health crisis.
Forbearance and Consolidation
Forbearance allows loan recipients to recover and restart repayments when they miss their scheduled loan payments. On the other hand, loan consolidation combines separate debts into one loan with a fixed interest rate and a single monthly payment.
In instances where you are unable to satisfy a loan, you may be given an extended period to repay the loan for a reduced number of monthly payments.
Mortgage Repayment
In the event of delinquent mortgage repayment, there are several ways and options that homeowners may take to avoid evident foreclosure. With modification in the structure of your loan, a reduced amount of the money owed may be possible by forgiving a portion of the mortgage.
You may ask to set a date for reinstatement to pay past dues, including the late fees if the financial problem that you have encountered is temporary. Selling the home can also be an option in paying off a mortgage in some instances to help avoid declaring bankruptcy.
These things are just the tip of the iceberg of all the services we can offer you. Once you choose to work with our debt repayment experts, our skills and dedication are sure to help you attain your dream debt-free life.
Talk to the Experts
Working with a professional debt repayment assistant may just be what you need to elevate your financial situation. Although financial stability may be a farfetched idea at the moment, it is not entirely impossible.
By dealing with the right people and making the right choices in your financial endeavors, being financially stable is a dream not too far ahead. Establishing a mindset that gets you ready may be difficult at first, especially when your situation makes it harder to believe being stable in life is possible. However, believing you can achieve financial freedom is the first step to make it happen.

Green light, Seven Eleven,
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes.
You don't smoke, don't even want to.
Hey now, check your change.
Dressed up like a car crash
Your wheels are turnin' but you're upside down.
You say when he hits you, you don't mind
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive.
Oh, is that what it is?
Red lights, grey morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground.
A vampire or a victim
It depends on who's around.
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip synch. to the talk shows.
And if you look, you look through me
And when you talk, you talk at me
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing.
If I could stay, then the night would give you up.
Stay, and the day would keep its trust.
Stay, and the night would be enough.
Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio.
With satellite television
You can go anywhere:
Miami, New Orleans
London, Belfast and Berlin.
And, if you listen, I can't call.
And, if you jump, you just might fall.
And, if you shout, I'll only hear you.
If I could stay, then the night would give you up.
Stay, and the day would keep its trust.
Stay with the demons you drowned.
Stay with the spirit I found.
Stay, and the night would be enough.
Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet, there's no one around,
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel runs to ground.
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel hits the ground.

Dentures are a replacement for missing teeth that can be removed and put back into your mouth as you please. Depending on each individual patient case, they may receive full or partial dentures. Full dentures are used when all of the natural teeth are removed from the mouth and replaced with a full set of dentures. There are two types of full dentures.
Partial dentures are another option when not all of your teeth need to be removed. This is similar to a bridge, but it is not a permanent fixture in your mouth.
Your dentures may take some time to get used to. The flesh colored base of the dentures is placed over your gums. Some people say that it feels bulky or that they don't have enough room for their tongue. Other times the dentures might feel loose. These feelings will affect the way you eat and talk for a little while. Over time, your mouth becomes trained to eat and speak with your dentures and they begin to feel more and more like your natural teeth. They may never feel perfectly comfortable, but it is much better than the alternative of not having teeth.
Even though dentures are not real teeth, you should care for them like they are. You should brush them to remove plaque and food particles before removing your dentures. After they have been removed you should place them directly into room temperature water or a denture cleaning solution. Never use hot water because it could warp the dentures. Your dentures are delicate, so make sure you are careful when handling them so you don't drop them. Also, never try to adjust your dentures yourself. You could ruin them, so you should always seek assistance from your dentist if they feel uncomfortable or loose.

Autumn is beautiful, but it also introduces some fall driving hazards… deer collisions being one of them. From October to December, mating and hunting season make deer go on the move. For drivers, that means you're more likely to hit one.
But have you ever wondered how your auto insurance can cover hitting a deer? Are deer collisions are covered by comprehensive or collision coverage?
According to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, deer-vehicle collisions are the top animal-related claim in the U.S. Before you get too worried, here are some helpful tips on how to avoid hitting a deer… and how to handle things if you end up hitting one despite your best efforts.
How To Avoid Hitting A Deer
- Know where the deer are likely to be. Areas with high deer populations are normally marked with a bright yellow sign. Deer also tend to graze in wooded areas or open fields. When driving your usual route to work, be attentive to areas where you've seen deer in the past – they are likely to cross there again.
- Be alert at sunrise and sunset. Deer are more active during dawn and dusk hours.
- Use your high beams. When possible, use your high beams for better visibility. The extra light will help make it easier to spot a deer, or other animals, lurking alongside the road.
- Don't rely on deer gadgets. Whether it's a deer whistle, deer fence or other type of product to scare away the deer… don't rely solely on them to keep deer away. Research isn't exact on whether or not these products truly work. (Related: Fact or Fiction? Debunking 6 Common Myths About Deer)
- When you see one… you'll probably see more. Deer travel in groups. If one comes across your path, proceed with caution in case there are more.
- Don't swerve. Swerving isn't always the safest option. Hitting a deer might often cause less damage than swerving to avoid it… and then hitting a more dangerous obstacle, like a vehicle in oncoming traffic. (Related: What's Safer… Swerving or Staying the Course?)
- Wear your seat belt. If you do hit a deer, wearing a seat belt decreases your chances of injury.
- Spread the word. When friends or family head out on the road, let them know to be careful and alert. Even a simple reminder can help prevent deer collisions.
What To Do If You Hit A Deer
Taking the above precautions can help you avoid hitting a deer… but nothing can entirely rule out the possibility. Here are steps you can take after you hit a deer.
- Pull over. Move your vehicle to a safe place off the road. Don't forget to turn on your hazard lights.
- Stay away from the deer. An injured deer can still lash out and hurt someone.
- Assess the damage. When you're out of harm's way, examine your vehicle and take photographs of any damage to your car. Use good judgement to know if your car is safe to drive or if you'll need to call for a tow truck. Learn how to add Emergency Roadside Service to your ERIE auto policy.
- Call for help. Depending on the circumstances, consider calling the police or an animal expert. While it's not always required to file a police report, it can provide evidence if you decide to make an insurance claim. If the deer is still in the middle of the road, a trained professional from animal control, the game commission or your local fish and wildlife service can move it away for everyone's safety.
- Know if you should file an insurance claim. An insurance professional like an Erie Insurance agent can help you make the decision based on the specifics of your auto insurance policy. Talking with someone you already know and who is familiar with the claims process can help put your mind more at ease.
Does My Auto Insurance Cover Hitting A Deer?
You can't always predict if a deer will walk into your path, but if one does, we're here to help get you back on the road as soon as possible. At Erie Insurance, deer-vehicle collisions are covered under the comprehensive portion of your auto insurance, which is an optional coverage you can choose to add on. Learn more about how to customize your ERIE auto policy.
An insurance professional like a local Erie Insurance agent can help you customize an auto insurance package that fits your needs and budget. Talk to your local ERIE agent to get a free online auto insurance quote.
A better insurance experience starts with ERIE.
Haven't heard of us? Erie Insurance started with humble beginnings in 1925 with a mission to emphasize customer service above all else. Though we've grown to reach the Fortune 500 list, we still haven't lost the human touch.

Is Blue Light Bad for Our Eyes?
How big of a role does a bright screen play in your nightly routine?
Since the advent of handheld devices that could access the internet, a lot of us have been browsing websites late into the night, our eyes glued to a bright little screen, making sure we haven't missed any updates before we go to sleep. As optometrists, we can't endorse this bedtime ritual. Screens emit a lot of blue light, which affects both our internal clocks and our eye health.
The Physics of Visible Light
The range of colors we can see is known as the visible light spectrum, a tiny sliver of the electromagnetic spectrum. Red light is the lowest energy light we can see and violet light is the highest. Below red light is infrared and above violet light is ultraviolet radiation. (Fun fact: the reason the sky and ocean appear blue to us is that blue light scatters more easily than other colors.)
The Impact of Artificial Light
For most of human history, the only source of blue light on Earth was the sun. Our bodies react to it. We feel more attentive, react faster, remember things better, and feel better overall during the day. When the sun goes down, it signals our bodies that it's time to sleep. Biologically, we aren't used to the concept of artificial light, which can be a problem when there's so much of it around us.
When we use our phones or computers right before bed, we're beaming subconscious signals to our brains that it's not time to sleep yet, no matter how late it is. Our brains respond by suppressing the release of melatonin, an important neurotransmitter that helps us sleep. The result is that it takes us longer to fall asleep than it would otherwise and lowers our overall quality of sleep, which feeds into all the negative health effects of sleep deprivation.
A great way to avoid all these sleep issues is to simply put our devices away in the hour before we go to sleep. In cases where that isn't possible, use the night mode function to cut out the blue light.
Blue Light and Eye Health
Because blue light is so close to UV radiation on the electromagnetic spectrum, many optometrists are concerned that it could be similarly harmful to our eyes, potentially increasing the risk of conditions like age-related macular degeneration. Fortunately, the screens we use emit only a tiny fraction of the blue light the sun emits (and none of the UV light).
A more immediate concern from blue light exposure is digital eye strain. After hours and hours of looking at a bright screen, our eyes might ache or struggle to focus, and we can even get headaches. Computer glasses and screen filters help make screens easier to look at, but a great trick is the 20-20-20 rule. Every 20 minutes, take a 20 second break to focus on an object 20 feet away.
We Can Answer Your Questions About Blue Light
If you've been experiencing symptoms of eye strain and want recommendations or you have other questions about how blue light can impact eye health, we'd love to discuss it with you at our practice! We want all of our patients to have the information they need to keep their eyes healthy.

Jaw Bone Health, Loss and Deterioration
Ask Broadway Dental Arts if our services are right for you
Make an AppointmentJawbone health can be maintained through regular check-ups and precise treatment for dental problems that often cause deterioration. Depending on the situation, jawbone health may be safeguarded by replacing missing teeth, treating gum disease, or in severe cases, using bone grafts to repair defects or traumatic injury.
Common Causes of Jawbone Deterioration and Loss
- Tooth extractions
- Periodontal disease
- Dentures/bridgework
- Trauma
- Misalignment
- Facial Tumors
How is Jawbone Loss Prevented?
Bone loss can be prevented by giving the jawbone a replacement tooth with a root that can exert the same or similar pressure as natural teeth. This is done immediately after extraction by replacing single teeth with dental implants, or by using a fixed implant-supported bridge or denture. A single-tooth implant or a dental bridge with three to four teeth supported by two implants provide a chewing power of 99% of natural bite force. A denture secured with dental implants, such as our Same Day Teeth procedure, provides about 70% to 80% of normal biting force and helps considerably in preventing bone loss.
Tips for Maintaining Jawbone Health
- Take Calcium Supplements
- Regularly Stretch the Jaw Muscles
- Don't Overwork Your Jaw (by chewing gum excessively, for instance)
- Eat a Healthy Diet
- Visit the Dentist Often
Regular visits to your Broadway Dental Arts dentist every six months can help keep your teeth in the best shape possible to help prevent jawbone loss. Call us at 918-245-0229 today.

Is Mitt Romney shifting his abortion position again?
It's fairly well-known that Romney proclaimed himself in favor of abortion rights when he ran for office in Massachusetts, then reversed himself before launching his presidential bid. But recently, the GOP nominee seems to be softening his opposition somewhat. Or is he?
Romney proclaimed himself a strong supporter of abortion rights both in 1994, when he ran unsuccessfully for Senate against incumbent Democrat Edward Kennedy, and in 2002, when he defeated Democrat Shannon O'Brien to become governor.
"I will preserve and protect a woman's right to choose," he said in a 2002 debate with O'Brien. "And I do take exception to Shannon characterizing my view as being any different than hers in this regard; The Boston Globe recently reported there's not a paper's width worth of difference between our two positions in this regard."
But that changed halfway though Romney's term as governor. He says his conversion came after he talked to a Harvard scientist about embryonic stem cells. Now, he says his position is to oppose almost all abortions.
"My own view is that I oppose abortion except for cases of rape, incest, and where the life of the mother is threatened," he told conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt Aug. 24.
But that's slightly different from what he told CBS that same week.
"My position has been clear throughout the campaign," he said. "I'm in favor of abortion being legal in the case of rape and incest, and health and life of the mother."
So in that interview, Romney added one more exception — for the woman's health.
The Romney campaign won't say the candidate misspoke, but a spokeswoman does say he doesn't support an exception to protect the health of the pregnant woman. That's because other abortion opponents, including GOP vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan, insist it creates too large a loophole, since health often encompasses mental health, too.
"The health exception is a loophole wide enough to drive a Mack truck through it," said Ryan on the House floor during a debate in 2000 on a bill to ban the procedure some call "partial birth" abortion. "The health exception would render this ban virtually meaningless."
Beth Shipp, political director for the abortion rights group NARAL Pro-Choice America, says she's stunned by those who oppose exceptions for health reasons.
"They actually think that somehow women make up health problems like diabetes, or kidney failure, or breast cancer," she said, "or any of the myriad of other health concerns that women in this country face when they become pregnant."
But even without a health exception, the question remains: Does Romney really support abortions for victims of rape? The question has become more relevant in light of the recent controversy surrounding Missouri Republican Senate candidate Todd Akin. He suggested that victims of "legitimate rape" couldn't get pregnant, and later apologized.
But for all of Romney's efforts to try to distance himself from Akin, when he was governor of Massachusetts, Romney vetoed a bill that would have required that rape victims be provided not abortions, but morning-after pills in the emergency room.
"It's very important to remember that emergency contraception is birth control," says Shipp of NARAL. "It's not RU-486, which people refer to as the abortion pill."
Although some very ardent opponents say the morning-after pill can technically cause a very early abortion by preventing the implantation of a fertilized egg, medical experts insist that's not how it works. Yet Romney said it could "terminate life after conception" in a Boston Globe column explaining his veto.
The Republican platform calls for protecting life from conception. It doesn't allow any exceptions, including those for rape, incest or the life of the woman. Shipp says if that's Romney's position, then fine. But voters will see through it if he tries to go back and forth.
"They pay attention. They learn about the issues," she said. "And every time that Mitt Romney tries to reinvent himself, they say, 'But wait a minute, I remember you said ...' They do their homework; they understand the responsibility that comes with voting for the highest office in the land."
Last week, Romney's oldest sister Jane told reporters at the convention that her brother wasn't going to ban abortion if he becomes president. "It's not his focus," she told a National Journal reporter.

Amazon Mechanical Turk
Amazon has created a site based on the idea that there are certain types of tasks better suited to humans than computers. As a 'mechanical turk worker', you can work from home, choose your own work hours, and get paid for doing good work. Examples of tasks include: Selecting the correct spelling for search terms, finding the item number for a product within an image, rating search results for different keywords, choosing categories for products. While the payout for any individual task is very small, there are large numbers of tasks are available, which should make it a little easier to find projects of interest.

Each site has it's own restrictions and payout details, so it is important to take the time to choose the site (or sites) that might be a good fit for your photos. Rather than detail the differences in each site, we are listing sites recognized as leaders within the online photo marketplace.

OK, this one shouldn't really be listed on this page, because technically, you wouldn't be 'online' when you made money doing this...but we just think it's cool, so we are listing it anyway. We have no idea what level of compensation is available here, but in all likelihood, it's small. The cool thing about this opportunity though, is that 'playtesters' are able to play unreleased video games. The goal is to give the video game developers more information on what is and isn't working within a specific game. As mentioned, this opportunity is a little different than the others listed on this page though, in that the video game testing is not done online...but rather 'in-person'. For the right individual, this could be a fun way to make a little extra cash, and (probably more importantly) enjoy bragging rights (for being able to play video games that haven't been released yet).

"Maybe I surprised people a little bit, but everybody knows I'm gonna bring it every time, no matter what." - Ed Herman
Despite three surgeries on his knee that were costing him nearly two years of his prime as a mixed martial artist, Ed Herman knew that he would eventually come back to the UFC and life as a full-time fighter. That doesn't mean there weren't questions, both internally and externally, and days when everything just seemed to go wrong.
"There are times when you have a bad day and you think, 'is it over?'" Herman recalled of the time between his August 2009 fight with Aaron Simpson and his return to the Octagon in June of 2011. "And a lot of people are questioning if you'll ever fight again."
This was never more evident than in his time working as a bartender while he rehabbed his knee. People aren't exactly known for their tact in the best of circumstances. Add in some alcohol and it gets worse, as Herman recalled.
"People are like 'hey, you're that guy who used to be in the UFC. Aww, here's an extra buck. Sorry buddy.'"
It was a stark reminder for someone barely 30 years old of how fragile a career in professional sports can be. Herman didn't take such jabs as an excuse to fade away though. It made him work even harder to get back what he lost.
"That kinda stuff motivated me, and it put in perspective how great of an opportunity it is to fight in the UFC, and how blessed I was still to do that. So to possibly have all that taken away was a lot to deal with."
Herman would have his third knee surgery in March of 2010. Shortly afterward, his friend and longtime training partner Ryan Schultz talked to him about opening a gym in Fort Collins, Colorado, far from his home base in Portland. Herman didn't need much convincing, and in August of 2010, he moved to the Rocky Mountain state and Trials Martial Arts and Fitness was born.
"I fell in love with it, packed my bags, rented my house out, and moved out there," said Herman, who has adjusted well to the new surroundings. "I miss home, but I definitely needed a change with the weather. It's sunny here like 300 plus days a year, which is awesome. I like the snow too, so you get the hot summers and the cold winters, but what's cool about the winter is that it could be cold, but the sun comes out."
More importantly, the sun was coming out on Herman's career as well, as he got the green light to begin training and to resume his career.
"Sometimes having some time away from the sport you can reflect on what's going on around you," he said. "So I guess everything happens for a reason, and maybe it was good for me to have that time off to refocus mentally. I'm also working with some new coaches, and I had great people around me before, but sometimes change can help."
The questions would only be answered in the Octagon though, and Herman was expected to be tested immediately by Louisiana jiu-jitsu black belt Tim Credeur in their June 2011 bout. 48 seconds later, Herman had a knockout win, his first victory in the UFC since he defeated David Loiseau in April of 2009, and a new start to a career that looked rocky even before the knee injury, as he had gone 1-3 in his previous four fights.
Of course, skeptics are rarely convinced with one comeback victory, so Herman had to show them one more time, and he did two months later as he latched on a heel hook against Kyle Noke and submitted him at 4:15 of the first round.
"Maybe I surprised people a little bit, but everybody knows I'm gonna bring it every time, no matter what," said Herman, now 19-7. "A lot of people said 'what have you been doing different, oh my gosh, you look so much better.' But I'm the same guy; I just was able to put it together and everything kinda went my way. I always had those skills. Maybe I was just putting things together better. But things happen in your career, you make different choices, and that can reflect on your performance."
And oddly enough, Herman's resurgence comes with an added benefit – a clean slate, as there are some newer fans who may not even remember him as the finalist on season three of The Ultimate Fighter, but as a rookie fighter with a knack for fast finishes.
"I think with the new fanbase, I definitely got some new fans, which was great," he said. "And some of the old fans came around too, maybe some people who didn't like me before."
Saturday night, the world will see Herman, as he's on the UFC 143 main card in Las Vegas, taking on unbeaten, but relatively unknown Clifford Starks.
"There's not that much tape on him, but looking him up, he's 8-0, he's newer to MMA and I would say he's a young, up and coming, hungry guy, but he's the same age as me, really," said the 31-year old Herman of the 30-year old Starks, a former Arizona State University wrestler who made his Octagon debut with a win over Dustin Jacoby at UFC 137 last October. "He's definitely an athletic dude and I'm sure he's gonna come hungry and come for me, so it's the same motivation, if not more. When you're supposed to win, there's a lot more pressure on your back – at least there is for me anyway. So I feel like I have to go out and perform. If I go out there and lose, or look bad winning, then that's only going to be a negative thing for me. I have to go out there and put it on this guy and show him that he's not at my level and make him understand why he shouldn't be in there with me."
Herman does understand what Starks is going through, having been there himself back in 2004, when he was the hot 8-0 prospect running through the local circuit before getting the call to travel to Japan to face Kazuo Misaki in his ninth pro fight.
Who? Only a guy whose record already included fights with Chris Lytle, Nate Marquardt, Ricardo Almeida, and Jake Shields.
"It was a big shock for me," said Herman. "I went from fighting locally in the Northwest to boom, you're in Japan. And then my manager, Matt Lindland, he didn't even tell me who Misaki was. I get over there and I find out he's one of the top ranked Japanese guys in the world and I'm like 'dude, you didn't tell me that.' (Laughs). Matt goes 'It doesn't matter, you'll kick his butt.' All right Lindland. It was good in some ways, but in other ways it's not the best way to bring up a young fighter."
At 3:31 of the second round, Herman got put to sleep by an arm triangle choke. That was the bad news. On the bright side, he went on to win five of his next six bouts, earning the spot on TUF3 that launched his UFC career.
"I did pretty well," said Herman of the Misaki bout. "I was kicking Misaki's butt until I made a mistake and let him choke me out unconscious. I always wanted that one back."
As for Starks, Herman says "It's his second fight in the UFC, and it takes a while to get used to all that, but he competed a high level in college wrestling, so he's used to competing, and that's a big thing. So I think he's gonna be comfortable competing, and he probably believes he can win until he gets in there with me and I start putting the pressure on him, and I feel like I can get in there and break his will."
That doesn't mean "Short Fuse" is underestimating his foe. It's just the opposite, because he knows that one bad break or one bad loss can put a serious dent in this comeback and in a 2012 plan that he hopes will pave the way to a shot at a world title.
"I've got a tough fight coming with Starks and I do respect the guy," said Herman. "But I'm looking to go in there and get three, four wins this year if I can, and make my way through the top ten and ultimately look for a title shot. I've got to take it one fight at a time of course, but I'd love to work my way to the top and get a shot at the title some day."
Then there will definitely be no more bartending gigs.
"Maybe I'll buy a bar someday and bartend there."
