Suffering From Scoliosis?
Are you looking for the best chiropractor in Lebanon that cares for scoliosis? Typically, scoliosis begins as a minor bend in the spine that gradually progresses over a lifetime. A diagnosis of scoliosis is made when the spine curves more than ten degrees to the right or left when a patient is facing the examiner. Once the spine has advanced to more extreme stages of scoliosis there can be severe health consequences.
The good news is that if the bending of the spine is discovered early on, and Chiropractic care is received, it can be prevented from advancing to a debilitating state. This article will give you a brief glimpse into how scoliosis develops and the impact that it has on one's health. It will also show how scoliosis can be identified, and how chiropractic care in Lebanon can work to reverse its effects and return your body to full health.
Scoliosis in Lebanon
Scoliosis is a bend or curve in the spine where a healthy spine would be completely vertical. The exact origin of the curve is often hard to trace. In the beginning it may be just a small bend caused by a simple misalignment of single vertebrae. Over time the body will begin to compensate, building musculature that will continue to pull the spine into lateral curves in order to ensure that the head remains level.
This misalignment can occur because of postural issues, degenerative diseases, and traumatic accidents. While many cases of scoliosis begin while the body is going through rapid spurts of development, particularly in youth aged 10-12, the condition can also develop in older adults as well. In older people, scoliosis is often caused by degenerative disorders such as osteoporosis.
What are the Consequences of Scoliosis?
If scoliosis and its cause go unchecked it can lead to severe, long-term consequences. Scoliosis is associated with back, neck, shoulder, and buttocks pain. It can lead to re-occurring injuries and has been linked to sciatica. In severe cases it can cause diminished lung and heart capacity, painful menstruation, and physical disability.
How is Scoliosis Identified?
Parents, or someone close to the person with scoliosis, are often the first to notice, as the shoulders and pelvis no longer appear level. A physical examination will assess the gait and will use visual and manual examinations to assess the curvature of the spine. An Adams Position Test, which requires the patient to bend forward as far as possible, can indicate whether an issue is present or not. If a noticeable curvature is discovered an x-ray will be used to determine the extent of the scoliosis.
Chiropractic Treatment of Scoliosis
A professional chiropractor is trained to complete a thorough examination that will determine the presence of scoliosis. Once the issue is identified, the chiropractor will perform a full health history to identify any factors that could be contributing to the presence of scoliosis. This assessment helps to determine the appropriate treatment for the particular case.
Chiropractic care in Lebanon is a gentle and conservative approach to treatment that can prevent, slow, and stop the progression of scoliosis. A chiropractor will likely perform specific spinal adjustments to reverse the body's compensations and assist in the restoration process. If you are looking for a safe, non-invasive approach to treating scoliosis, chiropractic medicine has your back.

Interviewer: > Dominic Smith Interviewee: > Michael Mandiberg
Dominic Smith: I was hoping to have a chat with you about your experiences of open source, your initial experiences, your current experience and where you stand on it. Michael Mandiberg: I learned to code by looking at source code on web sites. My initial experience with any kind of programming was by default open source. I was doing graphics before so I've been using Photoshop since version 2.5.1. But when talking about code I learned to code largely by looking at other peoples code. I am going to give a presentation at Berkeley in two weeks at the Takeovers and Makeovers conference which is about intellectual property, artists and appropriation. I'm going to frame my talk through my realization that I was making Open Source work without realising it. I did this project called AfterSherrieLevine.com. Sherrie Levine photographed Walker Evans work and called it her own work. The funny thing is, it was a form of commons enclosure. Although I didn't have the words "commons enclosure" at the time to describe it, these are the words I would use now. She had a legal case with the Walker Evans estate and ended up shutting things down. I wouldn't have called it Open Source at the time, but that's what I did when I scanned the works out of the same edition of the book and put them up online as hi-res images and certificates of authenticity which you print and sign yourself. So there is 'Open Source' the Noun, and then there are 2 different versions of the verb 'Open Source', 'to Open Source'. So you're working on a project and you release it Open Source, that's to Open Source a project. But the other version of to Open Source is a certain kind of reverse engineering, its kind of hostile or confrontational, and it's to Open Source somebody else. I was open sourcing Sherrie Levine in a sense. So I think that a lot of my work comes from that appropriation and that's a starting point. I did a bunch of programming, a series of Firefox plug-ins that are Open Source, again they are Open Source largely through the fact that they are written in JavaScript. During the last year I have been doing a lot of design-related projects. I've been working on a reflective bicycle and on lampshades. I have found it really interesting because everyone wants to buy these lampshades, but no one wants to make them. I made an instructable but no one has really done it, people want to buy them, people want the easy way out. We released the instructable with a Creative Commons Attribution (CC-BY) license. Basically, all we want is to say 'Made in the Eyebeam R&D lab', that's all we want. We made a video and blog posts, and sent it out into the world. Its got 30,000 - 40,000 views - maybe more - I haven't checked. The video explicitly says, 'this is just a video to get it out into the hands of someone who will actually manufacture the lampshades, we are giving it away, make money off us.' But we are having to work very hard to give something away. It's a very strange thing; and this is part of what the talk I'm going to be giving in 2 weeks is about, its this notion of having to work hard to give something away. Unless you turn yourself into a business your idea stays as a sort of prototype. Cutting these things [lampshade parts] out on a laser cutter is time-consuming, tedious and totally inefficient. It is great for prototyping but the lampshades need to be die cut. They need to be die cut on a scale of 10,000 at a time and the costs will drop by an order of magnitude. I don't want to do that, I don't even know how to do that. Certainly whether I want to or not, I don't have the skills, I don't know how to get into the distribution channels. But someone must - Ikea, Walmart, Target, Urban Outfitters, whatever. I realise that finding those people is really hard and there might be a little bit of trepidation like, 'Do we have the rights to do this?' I'm in the process of finishing a design textbook called Digital Foundations with Xtine Burrough. The book is a mash-up of the Bauhaus basic course and the Adobe Creative Suite. So we're taking about all these exercises and principles that form the cornerstone of visual education and design in arts education in the 20th Century to teach 21st Century tools. No one has done this, no one has even considered the way that the colour picker in Photoshop is derived entirely from Josef Albers colour theory exercises, and the idea that you can teach both at the same time is super powerful. We spent (by "we" I mean me and my co-author Xtine Burrough) nine months negotiating the contract because we wanted a Creative Commons license. We got the first Creative Commons license out of Peachpit and New Riders. It is being published by AIGA Design Press. That was a huge accomplishment, it was about trying to explain to these businesses how Creative Commons is not a threat to them, in fact its a benefit. So we went through a whole lot of explaining, constantly reassuring and giving them case studies. I need to write a How to because we're one of the first people to do this in an adversarial context, even the other people listed as being major Creative Commons authors in this kind of context, in fact, only have Creative Commons license on their online version, which is their manuscript. One of the central ways we were able to convince them was by showing our partnership with FLOSS Manuals and Adam Hyde. Adam and I have been talking for six or seven months about translating the book into Gimp, Inkscape and the other key Open Source apps. There are these core ideas and it is about separating the ideas and the exercises from the button pushing. So via the Creative Commons license we were able to say, 'Look, we have an immediate partner who wants to expand this idea', and I have to spin it to them in words they understand, i.e. build a brand, win mind share then market share, all this marketing stuff, that's what they understood. We were able to do it. So we are going to start once we finish the actual, real book which I am crazily working on right now. Adam, Xtine and I are going to start figuring out how to translate the book into the Open Source applications, and then (because Floss Manuals is heavily translation based) it will then be translated into Farsi, etc. DS: So how did the publishers react to the idea that it would be translated for free into different languages? Did they see it as an added value? MM: Yes, I just kept saying you are not going to get someone to buy the Farsi translation rights, and you are not going to get someone to buy the Open Source translation rights. You are losing nothing, and gaining much. For me the goal of this book has been to change the way design education happens at the introductory level. I teach in a classroom when Im not here at Eyebeam; it's a computer lab, there are fifteen Macintoshes in it. I get a bunch of nineteen year old students who have never been in a drawing classroom, they have never been in a dirty arts classroom. They have never drawn, and if they have, it was in high school, but they don't have those fundamental visual skills. This is true across the country in these design departments and visual communication departments as they have to spend money on computers, and they have to have places to put them - the drawing classrooms get cleaned out, scrubbed down and turned into a computer lab. So we have lost the location in which we would teach visual skills. What we are trying to do is find a way to bring back that 'introduction to visuality' into a computer class. For me the goal in all of this is to make a change, and I have made it clear to the publisher that's our goal and that it is good for them because it builds their brand, and using the words they understand, building a brand as an educational reformer is a positive thing. When you frame it that way, getting into as many languages as possible, they like it. Realistically they do sell the rights to translate it, they will probably sell a Spanish, German, French and Italian version. If the Chinese want to copy it they are just going to copy it, and I think they would be better off by having some sort of control over it by making it part of the license that allows them to do that. DS: That's your experience of being a leader in that area. Have you got any experience of being lower down on the food chain? MM: Yes, I've worked a lot with Drupal. There's a number of roles one can play in an Open Source community. One can be a project keeper and be the head architect type person. One can be the architect of one small little area that the community is working on. One can be someone who does small little bits of coding for those groups and one can be an end user. I have been somewhere in between an end user and a maker in several contexts. I tried to put together a template system for Drupal that was focused on artists' projects, it was a great learning experience. But I was running too many projects at once and it didn't end up coming out the way I wanted it to. I think somewhere on Drupal I'm considered a maintainer of a project that is dormant (laughs). I have also submitted bug revisions and code snippets that correct bugs in current code, and all those parts of being a contributing member/user of an Open Source project. Its all part of it. DS: In terms of your own work, do you make saleable pieces of work? MM: I'm making the first saleable piece of work that I've made in ten years as we speak (laughs). Im making drawings with a laser cutter that are going to be sold as part of the Rhizome Benefit. They're going to offer them as perks if you give a lot of money, $500 or $1000; Im not sure the exact price. I'm actually interested, and becoming more interested, in physical objects. There are some laser cutter drawings that I've been working on, that are somewhat saleable. Some of them are based on a font that I made - that I obviously have released Open Source - that is an adaptation of another font. I took Zapfino, it's a really decorative Baroque font that has fourteen hundred ligatures, which has variations, for example if A is next to B it looks different than if A is next to C, it's super crazy. Anyhow, I removed all of the counters - the empty space in the middle of letters like a and o and d - so that it could be stencil-friendly. So I've been making lots of that stuff, and all the drawings I'm releasing I'm going to write instructables for them. All the files are available if you want to mess around with them. DS: So in the development of that work various elements of it are Open Sourced before it comes to the point of final release. Have you any experience of anybody taking up part of that project, enhancing it and getting back to you? MM: I've had people make modifications. DS: And have you then taken those on board for your final work? MM: Sometimes. There's always the situation where someone was like 'Aah this code's buggy here's a patch', so that's one way. Another time someone wants to make a variation of your plug-in and they cite it as the start of where they went. A lot of people just grab chunks of code from it if I've done some things in my plug-ins that aren't so well documented, but I've figured out ways of doing them. And I guess, to come back to that 'After Sherry Levine' example, you can find aftermichaelmandiberg.com, its a perfect copy of aftersherrielevine.com (laughs). So there's a whole variety of things. Right now I'm working with reflective materials for bicycles. I am working with a couple of fashion designers, a designer called Nikolai Rose, we are trying to make a pinstripe fabric and they are going to cut a suit out of it. And I've been in discussions with a designer named Ethan Benton who has been working with retro-reflective materials. Its a dialogue, we are working together; Ethan and I shared some ideas but decided that we probably should work on our own projects but share ideas. I'm going to be out in San Francisco and I'm going to talk to these other guys that are doing these reflective pants. With bicyclists you have to roll your pant sleeve up, well, the inside of the bottom of the pant is covered in reflective material, so this part becomes super reflective, and they even have these little things that you slip into your pocket which you pull out, so you get little flaps that are reflective. So there is a lot of information sharing that I think is also really important, it's less hierarchical, less like, I'm going to contribute to your project, or, I took your project and I made something with it. Its more two ways and less one way. DS: Do you think that would have happened if Open Source didn't exist, or do you think that there have been other structures already invented that encourage people to work in a more collaborative fashion? MM: I think it is because there is a culture that encourages sharing, the culture of the Internet. Its a reinvigoration of craft culture that is so strong right now. I think that that frames a context where people are like, Sure, come over - let me show you what I'm doing. I don't think that any of the people that I'm in that dialogue with, would explicitly use the word Open Source. It comes two steps removed and it has as much to do with crafting and hobbyist-ism and knitting and sewing, as it has to do with computer programming, I think all of that gets channelled through the Internet. ends

King Cake - Gateau de Rois
From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...One of the most pervasive symbols of Mardi Gras is the King Cake or Gateau de Rois. It is a donut-shaped cake that is decorated in almost psychedelic shades of purple, green and gold. The colors of Carnival were chosen years ago and they represent the virtues of justice, faith and power. The cakes can be plain or fancy, but to qualify as a gateau de rois it must contain a tiny plastic or porcelain baby. The person who finds the token then becomes responsible for the purchase of the next King Cake. The King Cake ritual has changed over time, but it's believed that the tradition originated with pre-Christian societies of Western Europe. These groups placed trinkets in special cakes, and it is believed those who found them were rewarded with a crown. Their reigns, however, were of short duration because come harvest season they were sacrificed to appease the gods and sanctify the harvest. It is a big jump from human sacrifice to current King Cake practices in New Orleans, but the tradition appears to have started in the late 1800's when cakes containing beans were used to choose the kings and queens of the weekly Twelfth Night balls. Time has morphed that tradition and the buried bean has become a plastic baby, and the ball is now the carnival we call Mardi Gras.
While I've made dozens of Three Kings Cake for the Christmas holidays, I've never made a King Cake for Mardi Gras. I decided to remedy that today. I selected a recipe developed by John Besh because it sounded other-worldly good. I'm happy to report it made a cake that was both rich and delicious, but, that being said, I must also tell you that the dough used to make it is really difficult to work with. This is not a recipe for beginning bakers. The dough is amoeba soft and needs a final flour adjustment to be workable. It takes a practiced eye to judge just how much should be added. I've made bread for over 40 years now and I'm still not sure I got it right. I also had to play with the liquid needed to make the glaze for the cake. The coup de grâce, however, came when the Silver Fox walked into the kitchen, took one look at the finished cake and innocently asked if that was the way it was supposed to look. I stopped him before the word garish could pass his lips. There will be no fighting over blankets tonight and that pagan ritual I told you about may yet be revived."Laissez les bons temps rouler."

There is a version with a cream cheese filling that I would love to get my hands on, though neither of the two of us in our home needs another sweet. ;)

Your cake sounds delicious but I'm afraid The Baker might have had a similar reaction. He has learned to somewhat temper his remarks in such instances. Both of our sofas are too small for comfortable sleeping!!

The subject line on the email my old friend Bill sent me two days before Christmas said, simply: "here is a poem emily wrote for her murdered sister lauren."
Emily is Bill's daughter. Lauren, his stepdaughter, is one of the teachers gunned down during the Dec. 14 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.
The desperate, unbelieving howl Bill shared from Emily, two decades a sister to Lauren Rousseau, was a stark reminder that as the greater world anticipates a new year and the time-worn debates about the arming of America continue, no page has or will be turned for the families.
You can let go of me now
I say to the force that has taken
My heart
And smashed it under its heel
You can let go of me now!
I yell at this force
This grief
That grips my shoulders
And shakes me
Shakes me
Takes the wind
From my body
Drops me
To my knees
Leaves me
A trembling ball
Of tears snot wails
I met Emily when she was a little kid, the middle child of my Connecticut newspaper colleague Bill Leukhardt, sandwiched between brothers Nate and Andy. She'd fought off cancer as a 3-year-old and had that wiser-than-her-years look in her eyes that children who've battled disease or endured hardship often carry.
Emily, now 30, told me that she began writing her poem on her iPhone during a sleepless night the Tuesday after the Friday massacre.
A private meeting that she and the rest of the family, including her dad and stepmom Terri Rousseau, Lauren's mother, had with President Obama the Sunday after the murders was "pretty overwhelming," she said. "He looked like he'd been crying. He gave me a hug as he said, 'We'll get through this.' "
By Monday Emily described her own state as comatose, interrupted by sobbing. Tuesday she'd tried to do some Christmas shopping, and then collapsed in her hallway in tears and wails.
You can let go of me now
And give me back my sister
Twenty years my sister
Twenty years ago I was writing to her
Finding out which American Girl dolls we both had
What our favorite colors were
And how we could be friends
Now that our parents found each other
After Bill and Terri fell in love as divorced friends, they worked to introduce their six children — four boys, and the two girls — to each other through letters they hand-delivered before the face-to-face meeting.
Emily and Lauren were both 10 at the time, and they shared important details about dolls and favorites.
"I was very excited to meet her — we both had the same dolls, we both liked the same things," Emily said.
Like many sisters, they were close as youngsters, more distanced as their interests and personalities diverged as teenagers, and rediscovered each other as young adults.
They shared rides from Bill and Terri, a newspaper copy editor, to classes at the University of Connecticut. And they strengthened their bond two years ago during Bill's epic battle with a brain tumor.
"She was just so good," Emily says of her sister. "Just fundamentally good. Never hurt anybody, or said a bad word about anybody."
Another former Connecticut newspaper colleague, Bob Miller, Bill's close friend, wrote that Lauren was having the best year of her life when she was killed.
That Lauren had realized her teaching dream, and was happily engaged, have provided some solace, Emily says, as has talking about her.
"Terri's mantra has been that memories are for comfort, not for pain," says Emily, who wore one of Lauren's scarves to her funeral and now keeps it tied to her bedroom's doorknob. "So we've been sharing a lot of memories."
Emily, like her sister, works a second job at a Starbucks, and she was worried that after the massacre her customers would want to talk about what happened. Largely, though, she says, they've done the best thing possible given the circumstances: "They're just letting me know that they're there for me."
Twenty years from then
I am writing about her
Refusing past tense
Refusing to be the only daughter
The only sister
We're the moonlight dancing
Between the stars of our brothers
And light doesn't die
It only succumbs to darkness
For a finite period of time
Then returns
Forcing your eyes to adjust
After the Dark
Shining brighter than before

Steve Jobs once said, "It doesn't make sense to hire smart people and then tell them what to do; we hire smart people so they can tell us what to do." Whether you're a business owner, professional or even a low-level employee, chances are you might be asked to sit in on a job interview for the company.
Sorting through applicants can often feel overwhelming—maybe even downright impossible. This person has a lot of experience, but didn't shine in their interview. That person might not have much experience, but did a great job on their practice project. How do you decide which person to bring on the team? Fortunately, there are a few tips to keep in mind. Here's how to find the right candidate for a job.
1. Did they do their research?
The first sign of a great candidate is whether or not they did their research on both the company and the position before coming to the interview. There's nothing worse than a candidate who walks into the interview without any knowledge of what they're actually applying for. Glassdoor says, "Informed candidates—those who have done their research on your company and the position in advance—make for high-quality hires." Gauge whether or not the client has done their research by asking specific questions on culture, products or services.
2. Do they ask great questions?
Another measure of a candidate's preparedness is the questions they ask. Good questions demonstrate an applicant who took the time to think through the interview, evaluate the company and is genuinely excited about the position. Give them an opportunity to ask their questions, then consider their responses to your answers. Great interview questions can even tell you about how a candidate thinks and whether they will be able to adjust quickly while working in the position.
3. Are they enthusiastic?
Of course, it's not just about what the applicant says; it's about how they say it. The ideal candidate should be as interested in the company as the company is in them. They should have an apparent enthusiasm and excitement about the position itself. If you can sense their interest in their body language, voice and demeanor throughout the interview, that's a great sign. Enthusiasm often indicates the applicant will stick with the position and the company for the long haul, rather than someone who just wants a job to get by.
4. Do they share their weaknesses?
Obviously, you want to understand a candidate's strengths during the interview process. However, it's just as vital for an applicant to recognize their weaknesses. Recruiters often talk about the "perfect" candidate, but the truth is, every applicant has flaws. The question remains: Will the candidate share their weaknesses honestly? A great applicant will discuss their flaws openly, then spin them back toward how they will overcome those flaws, work through them or turn them into strengths.
5. How do they solve a scenario?
Some companies include a sample project during the interview process for candidates to complete and present before the interviewers. While this might not be possible at every business, it is a good idea to set a scenario for the applicant and see how they work through it. Present a proposed problem, project or issue for them to consider, and ask what their response would be. This gives you great insight into a candidate's approach to the job, regardless of whether or not he or she has experience.
Deciding who to hire can be an incredibly difficult and overwhelming process. However, there are a few ways to wade through the interviews. If you're in a position to hire, keep these tips in mind to find the right candidate for the job and build the best team possible.

Almost everyone understands the importance of regular brushing and flossing to their oral health. You've heard it many times before, at office visits and checkups: Proper oral hygiene is your first line of defense against tooth decay and gum disease. Yet, while most of us brush regularly, many people don't floss as often as they should… or at all!
Why not? Sometimes, it's because we don't have the manual dexterity to handle the floss, or because braces or partial dentures get in the way; or, perhaps we just never got in the habit. Yet proper cleaning of the interdental areas (the small spaces between teeth) is crucial — and here's why:
Consistent brushing with fluoride toothpaste has been proven effective at removing dental plaque from the tooth's surfaces and making them more resistant to decay. But regular toothbrushes simply can't get into the small gaps between teeth, or the tiny crevices where teeth meet gums. Unfortunately for our oral health, that's exactly where tooth decay and gum disease starts — and that's where the tools called "interdental cleaners" can help.
There are several different types of interdental cleaners available, including special brushes and irrigation devices (commonly called "water picks"). None of them, by themselves, are a substitute for brushing and flossing. However, as part of a regular program of oral hygiene, they can be effective at fighting plaque and reducing the incidence of tooth decay and gum disease.
The Interdental Brush
This specially designed toothbrush (sometimes called an interproximal brush or proxabrush) can be successfully utilized to clean the small gaps between teeth, as well as the gums and the areas around braces, wires, or other dental appliances. Because it has a handle not unlike a standard toothbrush, many people with limited dexterity find it easy to use. Plus, numerous clinical studies have demonstrated its effectiveness at reducing plaque and controlling gingivitis (gum inflammation).
The cleaning surface of an interdental brush is similar in shape to a small, conical pipe cleaner. Its short bristles radiate from a thin central wire, which is small enough to pass through a very tight space. The brushes are available with both coated and uncoated wire, and come in different widths to accommodate an individual's particular dental anatomy. When needed, they can also be used to apply antibacterial or desensitizing agents to certain areas of the teeth or gums.
Oral Irrigation Devices
Available to consumers for over 50 years, these devices (sometimes known as water jets or water picks) can also play a role in interdental hygiene. While their popularity has gone up and down over the decades, many studies have shown that they provide a safe and effective method of diluting the acids produced by plaque. Irrigation devices typically use pulsed or steady jets of pressurized water to remove food particles from the hard-to-clean interdental spaces, as well as in some subgingival (below the gum line) pockets.
Proper brushing and flossing is still generally considered the gold standard of at-home oral hygiene. But if you have trouble flossing regularly — or if you're at increased risk for developing dental or periodontal disease — then using these interdental cleaners might be right for you.
