Are dental crowns right for me?
We know that our Redlands, CA patients lead busy lives, which is why your dentist Dr. Brenna Hamrick-Stotts makes every effort to provide treatments that are as fast and efficient as possible. Find out how you can get some dental restorations in only one visit.
Q. What is CAD/CAM and how does my dentist use it for dental crowns?
A. CAD/CAM stands for computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing. While this might seem like quite the mouthful, it's really quite simple. We use unique computer software to help us design the shape, color and overall look of your dental crown and then use computer technology to then mill the restoration. CAD/CAM technology can do everything from crowns and veneers to onlays and dental bridges.
Q. Do same-day restorations last as long as traditional crowns?
A. With advancements in CAD/CAM technology your dentist in Redlands, CA can now offer a dental crown or other dental restoration with a superior fit, that looks more like a natural tooth and is stronger than other CAD/CAM restorations in the past. Furthermore, these crowns are also less likely to fracture.
Q. What should I expect when I get my same-day crown in Redlands?
A. Once we've examined your tooth and determined that a same-day crown is the right choice, we will use a handheld digital camera to take photos of the tooth. This is much more pleasant than using messy molds to take impressions of your smile. These images are immediately uploaded to the computer where your general dentist in Redlands can start to design your crown based on the measurements taken from your digital impressions. You will also help us determine the right shade for your new tooth.
Once the crown has been designed our CAM technology will be hard at work milling and fabricating your new crown (this process only takes about 20 minutes). Once the crown is created we can go ahead and cement it onto the prepared tooth. The whole process takes about an hour to complete.
Q. Are same-day crowns right for everyone?
A. While we would love to be able to give all patients the opportunity to repair their smiles with same-day restorations, it isn't right for everyone. By coming in for a consultation we will be able to determine whether this is the right option for you. Sometimes if the tooth has fractured below the gumline same-day crowns aren't the best option.
Furthermore, even with vast improvements the materials used for CAD/CAM restorations still don't offer the same aesthetic superiority as traditional crowns. You may think they don't offer the same translucency or realism that other restorations do.
Turn to Dr. Brenda Hamrick-Stotts for all your general and cosmetic dental needs. Call our office today and get a new smile during your next visit.

"Dude, next year, you should pretend to be Freddie Mercury, announcing that you faked your AIDS."
Uday had a whole year to think about how to top himself, and on April 1, 1999, the paper's fake headline stated that monthly food rations would now include bananas, Pepsi, and chocolate. You can guess how that thigh slapper went over.
But then, like all great comedians, the Husseins eventually started recycling material, reusing the crowd-pleasing sanction gag in 2000 and the oh my aching sides! ration one in 2001. Unfortunately, Captain Bringdown, er, Grand Mufti Sheikh Abdula Aziz bin Abdullah Al al-Sheikh ground the clown car to a halt by banning April Fools' Day altogether in 2001 for some strange reason.

But there would be one last hurrah for the wacky Iraqi pranksters. In March of 2003, Iraq was invaded by a coalition of forces led by the U.S. and UK. As thousands of American-led coalition troops stormed across Iraq, the Iraqi Ambassador to Russia, Abbas Khalaf Kunfuth, held a press conference. It was expected he would announce that Iraq conceded defeat. Instead he held up a piece of paper that he identified as a news flash from Reuters and read, "The Americans have accidentally fired a nuclear missile into British forces, killing seven ..."

Ooohhh what an ending, literally nothing had played along with the actual creepy pasta about the Russian Sleep Experiment. I have found better videos on youtube
Terrible acting, and everything else. Much better off reading the Russian sleep experiment...
If you're not familiar with the russian sleep experiment look it up. It's a great creepy, gory event. The subjects did waaay more freaky stuff in real life than was portrayed on here. It's a shame they wasted the story like this. A good budget and maybe American or British done would give this story what it deserves.
I see where they're going with this, and I think it could be excellent, however most of the episode is a recap of the last episode, and then the intro, so there is only about three minutes of actual plot we get to see. I think it's just poorly organized. Unfortunately a lot of shows are set up this way on Shudder.
That series took a long time to share a convoluted story. Bad acting, a weird plot that combines soviet era insubordination, philosophy, and bumbling officers...and very little time actually focusing on the inmates and you know - the experiment...read the creepypasta instead.

A smaller, more fuel efficient EcoBoost engine is also available, which should further improve fuel economy while providing the same kind of horsepower that would normally be delivered by mid-grade V8 engines.

The Hume Integrated Land Use and Transport Strategy (HILATS) was launched on Wednesday 8 February at the Hume Civic Plaza in Broadmeadows.
HILATS outlines land-use and transport initiatives aimed at improving transport options for Hume residents, workers and visitors. HILATS aims to create more accessible, liveable and sustainable communities, giving residents full access to jobs, education, and shopping and community facilities by expanding the range of transport choices and modes.
The Strategy is designed to tackle a range of transport challenges, including:
HILATS addresses these challenges by aiming to reduce car use; increase levels of walking, cycling and public transport; and encouraging more efficient car use.
Strategies outlined in HILATS to achieve these aims include:
HILATS also includes planning for new roads, and upgrades to existing roads both for the trips which will continue to be made by cars, and for efficient bus travel, and to support safe and efficient freight operations to support industry and employment.
Strategies for managing freight include identifying appropriate freight transport corridors, planning for freight generating land uses to be away from residents, and advocating for a greater proportion of freight to be carried by rail.
Decisions about investments in public transport and key road and freight projects are the responsibility of State and Federal Governments. Hume will advocate to the state and federal government for significant improvements in public transport including:
Some key road and freight projects that Hume will advocate for include:
Council adopted HILATS in November 2011.

How do you use your points for hotel & airline?
How to best use Marriott points for airline and points?
- Comment • 2
How do you use your points for hotel & airline?
you have to call the Marriott line to do that. There's another thread on that somewhere around here. Somebody did a cool analysis to find the sweet spot to get points and miles.
Hi econfkids, homoviator has a great suggestion. To make sure you are making the correct booking with points, it is always best to call and speak with a Reservation Specialist. They will be able to go over all of your options and make the booking that is right for you. You can reach out to them by calling, 800.228.2100.
I also noticed you are rather new to the forum, welcome to Insiders!! This is a great spot to discuss all things travel related with a dedicated group of Marriott Travelers. From sharing your experiences to hearing what others have to say, we cover it all. My name is Cara and I am one of the Community Managers here on the forum along with deannad, lindseyh and andrewt. Feel free to reach out to any of us.

While I am becoming acquainted with Piqua, and particularly falling in love with Lock 9 Park and the bike path along the Great Miami River, my favorite place in Ohio is still Yellow Springs.
When I was a kid, I would go with my mom to Yellow Springs and it would feel like a mini-vacation and a mini-adventure traveling to what felt like an artistic and nature haven tucked away next to Dayton.
It was where I found my Jesus bobble-head, which has been along my side from high school to college to my current attempts of being a self-sufficient adult. He even made a brief appearance in my professional career, adorning my desk at Reynolds & Reynolds during my short work experience there.
It is where we found a used bookstore with a cat roaming around inside. A live animal inside of a shop!
It is where my college friends and I adventured through and explored the Glen Helen Nature Preserve.
It is where I connected with other writers at the Antioch Writers' Workshop. I was a workfellow during two of those week-long, workshop-type conferences held during the summer held at Antioch University Midwest in Yellow Springs.
For the first time I was a workfellow during that workshop, I had no idea what to expect. It was the summer of 2012, the summer before my senior year in college. I was sweating bullets, and not because of the heat.
In my head, I was just a baby walking into a lion's den full of "real writers." Turned out, it was not a lion's den, but a community ready to welcome me. Every day, I felt like I was surrounded by "my people." We all had something in common. We all had an addiction to words. It was an exhausting, intoxicating experience both times I did it.
Since then, many of the people I worked with there have published books, including Joanne Huist Smith's memoir "The 13th Gift: A True Story of a Christmas Miracle," C.L. Pauwels' murder mystery "Forty & Out," and Sharon Short's novel "My One Square Inch of Alaska." It was a privilege to work with them and to receive their own input on my writing.
A place to explore. A place with unique shops and things to offer that cannot be found anywhere else except probably Amazon. A place to come and feel like you belong. You walk downtown, and you know this place is special and unique. That is what I want for our hometown of Piqua, too.
The recent shooting at Fountain Park early Wednesday morning after 1 a.m. was a blow to the community. People want to feel safe, and it is hard to feel positive about a community where you do not feel safe. One of the comments that stuck out to me on the Piqua Daily Call Updates Facebook post about the shooting was when someone asked, "How about the city taking their park back?"
Local government can only do so much. "The city" will have to include everyone.
As many people have noted, Piqua seems to be on an upward trajectory. Areas are slowly being revitalized. More and more events are happening to bring people together downtown.
I have never been someone who has really had a hometown. I grew up in Tipp City, but my parents were not from there. Then I went to college at Bluffton University for four years. Then I came back to where my parents live now, here in Piqua.
There are families with generations living in this area and the surrounding area, though. People have stayed for a reason. They know about the importance of place. They connect to the region differently than people like me who have only been here a few years. When they look at a creek or at a bench, they do not just see a creek or a bench. They see a memory, or a moment, as well.
Taking back our parks and our city can begin again with many memory-making outlets. We can go to the parks for exercise or entertainment, exploring the areas from Fountain Park to Lock 9 to Garbry Big Woods. If we want something unique to happen in Piqua, we can make it happen, like when the organizers behind "Down the River, Down a Beer" made that event happen, coming back to the downtown riverfront on Aug. 22. We can simply go out to dinner and take a walk. We can talk to our neighbors. We can make this a community where we each belong.
Having a positive, supportive self-image about Piqua can go farther than simply writing off this city with a negative comment or an eye-roll. You cannot bring Piqua back if you are a part of what is holding it down.

I would like to share something that happened on the weekend.
Sunday morning my wife and I had a very long cuddle session. We woke up early and cuddled for 2.5 hours until the kids got up. We were in a really good space. Lots of energy was flowing between us and we were really connected. When the kids arrived in our bed they had love showered on them from two parents who felt overflowing with love. It was awesome.
Then, around noon, everything turned on a dime. Both my wife and I felt very physically tired and we started sniping at each other. It was a very quick change. At noon we were both feeling great and by 2:00 we did not even want to be around each other. My wife accused me of waking her up too early, she pushed me away when I offered her a hug and then retreated to a room by herself for a while. She did not look happy. I was not too happy about her either. I was fine with her being in another room. That vibe lasted for most of Sunday.
I have done some reading since then and I have found that intense energetic experiences can cause suppressed emotional energy to surface for release. Some people experience this with meditation. After an especially blissful meditation session they may experience all kinds of negative energy that comes up from within them, causes them to feel miserable for no reason, and then passes. Afterward they feel as if a weight has been lifted from them. The same thing can happen with karezza.
My understanding is that healing activities like meditation and karezza can kick-off an eneregtic cleansing process. When that happens, emotional energy that is stored in a person's body will be shaken loose and then has to be cleared from the system. This can be experienced as physical tension, emotional tension or even uncomfortable movements of energy.
There is a good analogy about cleaning pipes. For many of us, our energetic system is clogged with lots of emotional garbage. This stuff is not necessarily moving. It just sits there like grime in a pipe constricting our energetic flow. Then something happens to knock some of this grime loose. It is now moving in the system and thus we feel crummy. However, it eventually flows out and we are left with a system that is cleaner and flowing more smoothly.
I think that my wife and I hit a new high in our relationship healing Sunday morning and this caused all kinds of resentment, blame and hard feelings between us that had been surpressed over the years to come up for release. It was uncomfortable to go through, especially after the way we had been feeling that morning, but it was ultimately good for us.
Today we are back to normal. That phase passed and we feel good about ourselves and our marriage again. In fact, it honestly does feel like a layer of tension that existed between us has fallen away.
I just thought I would throw that out there in case other people have similar confusing experiences. Amazing highs can cause confusing lows, but ultimately, it all contributes to an upward trend over time. The key to getting through the lows is to not fixate on them. Recognize what they are (conflicted energy being purged) and find ways to nurture yourself until the episode passes. Try not to introduce any new conflicted energy to the relationship at that time (ie. don't blame your spouse). Just let it pass on its own. Then you can enjoy the new lightness of being that follows.

Thanks for sharing that
I find it amazing to watch how the karezza healing process works. It's never the same (because the blocks and old resentments are never the same from couple to couple), but it's like a relentless tow truck. It absolutely does dissolve whatever it causing separation in the relationship if you just let it work and, as you are doing, be willing to let the dips go instead of buying into them.
I think this is normal in a lot of spiritual clearing work. I used to think of it as the "whiplash effect." That is, you make a big, much needed breakthrough in some area and suddenly an extreme blast of the old pattern returns. It's almost like an invitation to go right back into your old patterns. You have to do just what you did. Keep walking and let the illusion of the old reality dissolve.
The good news is that the whiplash often signals the end of a particular pattern. *fingers crossed*
I think You're Right Louie
I think that intense emotional highs can bring about a cleansing. I don't think it's all chemicals and such though. Or perhaps that's one way to explain it but I guess I think of it differently.
Being close to someone makes us vulnerable to getting hurt. Letting a wall fall down (even just for a moment) exposes our weaknesses. When we realize this (unconsciously) we put up new defenses. Once our fortress feels strong enough again, life as normal resumes. In my opinion (and it's just that really) is that maybe it's okay to rethink your sabbatical on talking with each other about your feelings. But the conversations need to be timed correctly, honest, open, and unguarded to actually have any benefit.
I also think this is why orgasms can trigger hangovers. I think they force us to deal with our deep seeded issues and heal. Loving relationships in general do this by mirroring our issues back to us and holding us accountable. I think that often a relationship can be a wonderful spiritual practice for both parties if they are willing.
another view
I've found that if we are very turned on for a period of time, without Karezza but just in cuddling, that the effects can resemble those of orgasm. It is when I get turned on cuddling over a day or two, or several hours, when it is liable to happen. If I can relax and not get an erection and not get turned on, it doesn't happen. That's been my experience pretty consistently. I guess it's similar or identical to edging in a way.
For some reason it doesn't happen when we have Karezza for a long period of time. That doesn't cause the same neurochemical fallout that the turned-on-by-cuddling does.
Just my experience.
I have noticed that too
Just this morning I was cuddling my wife and I was getting too aroused. I had a hard erection. I willed myself to relax and then the energy chnaged. My breathing slowed down and my energy kind of smoothed out. It was much more comfortable that way.
I have read in various Taoist books that aroused sexual energy is very difficult to control. It just has too much energy. You have to stay away from that aroused state if you want to have a smooth experience.
However, I have been in that kind of aroused state many times without triggering a deep emotional purge. In fact, Sunday was the cuddle that triggered the purge and it was not aroused at all. On Sunday, I think it was the length and depth of the connection that triggered a purge. The energy of the experience had time to get into places within us that rarely get touched. That is how I see it.
totally agree
I totally agree with Louie's views, and mostly by personal experience with thinks like intense 'meditative' experiences, etc... And Karezaa looks like a quite powerful purifying process, so it's understandable that it will trigger the arousal of old locks and emotional patterns stored deep in us, and feel lighter when they pass.
Is one important thing to be mindful about, and as Louie very well did not confusing or relating it to other things.
yes I agree too!
Karezza does indeed draw out a lot of past stuff and help cleanse it. It can be traumatic sometimes.
I wasn't disagreeing with anything Louie wrote either. Just writing something that has been my experience that may or may not be relevant.
It was really only cuddling!
Hi Louie, just out of curiosity: You were really only cuddling with your wife for 2,5 hours? I mean without any sexual intercourse? It's just hard for me to imagine.
Only cuddling
Yes, it was only cuddling.
We woke up at 5:30 and I rolled over to her side of the bed to cuddle her. After that she went in and out of consciousness (dozing) but I was awake the whole time. We cuddled until 8:00 when the kids came in to wake us up.
We chnaged positions a few times. I cuddled her, then she cuddled me, then I cuddled her again. I find that the more relaxed we get, the less often we change positions.
Honestly, it did not feel like 2.5 hours. The time went by pretty fast.
Sorry to bother you again with this Louie...
...but would you mind describing this cuddle thing a bit more? For me, it's hard to imagine to receive any kind of touch by a man which does not ultimately lead to sexual intercourse or at least mutual masturbation.
Most of the time when we cuddle it is in the morning. I tend to wake up first and I lie quietly on my side of the bed until she is awake. As soon as we are both awake my wife will roll onto her left side so that we can cuddle.
I roll over so that I am spooning her from behind. sometimes I place my hand under her shirt. Sometimes I place it over her shirt (we always sleep with pyjamas on) and I cup her left breast lightly with my right hand.
We do not talk. I do not try to squeeze her, fondle her or otherwise arouse her. We just lie there together. In fact, she often dozes for a while.
When we first start to cuddle I feel my heart rate speed up and my skin become quite warm. I used to think that this was nervousness. I could not understand why I would be nervous cuddling. Now I know it is just energy gathering to move. Others are free to disbelieve if they want to. It is always easy to dismiss things that you have not experienced yourself. Once you have experienced it, you start to believe.
In any case, as we cuddle for the first 20 minutes or so I can feel warm energy leaving me and entering her. After a while I feel cool energy coming back. Then we become very relaxed. The longer that we cuddle, the more my wife becomes soft and receptive in my arms. If we did not have kids we would probably end up making love on some of those days. However, at 7:00 the alarm goes off and the day must begin.
We usually cuddle for 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on when we wake up.
This cuddling opens my wife up in a way that no amount of foreplay ever did. She gets more relaxed during cuddling then she has ever been when having sex. Eventually she will learn that she can have that same effect when making love as well. I am now sold on the idea that relaxation is the key to good love making, not arousal.
I'm cheering for you, Louie
Maybe we could all chip in and get you a babysitter.;-)
Today I am in the dog house. My daughter left one of the car windows open over night and it rained. I got told off on the phone this morning. Guess there will not be any cuddling today. LOL
Such things used to make me so upset. Now I just shrug.
Let's see how
fast she bounces back to her loving self.
Very fast
I talked to her about something unrelated a few minutes ago and there was no trace of any hostility. She was able to vent what she needed to vent and all is good again.
In the past something like this would have hung between us for days. Now it is just vent, forgive, move on.
That's what
we've noticed too. It's the best of both worlds. Partners don't have to walk around on egg shells trying to keep from hurting each other - they can say what they need to...and the friction evaporates almost immediately.
Consider this a few cyberbucks from me!

We gather in the chill of morning,
in fog backlit by the sun.
Some test tires, checking pressure,
others clean crust from their chains.
Up, through fragrant cedar.
Further up, aspen leaves
chase the trail in gold.
Foreheads slick with sweat,
heads hung like dogs,
bulging calves turn pedals;
our cadence is one.
Breaking through pines,
we reach the top.
Thunder cracks, and we dive
back into trees
cackling like crows.
Flying back down the trail,
our tires sing in the dirt.
Fingers and hands aching,
drawn to coolers and dry clothes.
The cracking of cans
and clinking of glass
sound the ending of day.
The warmth and light of fire
lends life to new plans.
Higher, faster, further:
the promise of tomorrow.

But Who Is Google's Person of the Year? Justin Bieber Tops Everyone on Google Zeitgeist
Time got its say on the man of the hour, but whom the world is actually talking about is quite a bit different.
Time is taking flak today for choosing Mark Zuckerberg, the founder and CEO of Facebook, as its "Person of the Year." The critics don't dispute Zuckerberg's accomplishments, of course, but to many it seems as if Time intentionally overlooked the achievements of Julian Assange, the embroiled head of whistle-blowing site Wikileaks, in order to escape controversy. The Slate Group's editor-in-chief, Jacob Weisberg, called the Zuckerberg nod "gutless," and Forbes suggests that Assange is too "bad" to earn the Person of the Year distinction.
But while the media hashes out its favorites, what do the hoi polloi think?

"I'll put one foot in front of another, take one breath and then take another. Lead the way, Lord. I'm gonna follow you. 'Cause you're faithful every moment, when it's easy, when it isn't. You've never led me wrong, never let go. Your love is strong and your arms still hold me right here to forever. Like a child and like a treasure from the start to the end, through the ups and downs. You were with me then, and you're with me now."
Life is a journey and thankfully when we know Jesus, we never have to walk alone through its ups and downs. Our job is to put one foot in front of another and take one breath at a time. He will lead. He will guide. And he has our best in mind, even when we can't see it. When it's hard for us to have hope, when we don't feel like saying "bring it on," he will be strong for us. He is faithful every moment and he will hold our hand, just like a little child needs hand-holding. He will scoop us up in his arms, just like we scoop up the children in our own lives. He has been with us in the past and he is with us NOW!
Isaiah 41:13 "For I am the Lord, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, do not fear; I will help you."
Questions: Have you ever had a day when all you could do was put one foot in front of another and take one breath at a time? What did you do to help you "take hold of God's hand" at times like that? How do you experience the strong arms of God holding you up?
Prayer Power: Lord, help me to put my hand in yours and take one step at a time and one breath at a time, trusting you as I walk through this journey of life. I know that you want the best for me and that you have a plan. Help me to trust you NOW as I have in the past.

A massive, deep black hole, a crater approximately 262 feet wide, has appeared in the Siberian permafrost in such a remote area of Russia that the name for the area, Yamal, translates as "the end of the world." Scientists at present are somewhat baffled by the large crater and what might be responsible for its formation, but awareness of its existence has prompted Russian scientists to speculate and plan research expeditions to attempt to get to the bottom of the matter.
As NPR reported July 16 that the Siberian crater, which resembles a very large sinkhole, has been the center of heavy speculation as to its possible origin. Theories from extravagant ideas of UFOs landing on the permafrost to scientifically sound positions cocerning natural causes — gas explosions, warming permafrost pressure (a different type of gas explosion), ice melting displacement — have been tendered. Images of the mystery crater show a gaping circular hole, rough-edged and seeming to be shallowly filled with a dark liquid.
News of the mystery crater first appeared in the Siberian Times, which was quick to suggest: "Experts are confident that a scientific explanation will be found for it and that it is not — as one Web claim suggested — evidence 'of the arrival of a UFO craft' to the planet."
As the Times noted, the gigantic hole's sudden appearance on the Yamal Peninsula was first spotted by helicopters. However, experts believe, given evidence in the photos of the hole in the Siberian permafrost, that the massive hole is about two years old.
Yamal authorities have coordinated an expedition with experts from the Centre for the Study of the Arctic and the Cryosphere Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences to investigate.
The area is gas rich, sitting atop a reservoir of natural gas that is the largest in Russia (by some estimates, in the entire world). This, of course, led to the obvious speculative point that the crater was likely caused by a gas explosion. The large hole is located less than 20 miles (about 30 kilometers) from Yamal's biggest gas field Bovanenkovo.
"We can definitely say that it is not a meteorite. No details yet," said a spokesman from the Yamal Emergencies Ministry. At the same time, the spokesman could not say what might have caused such a massive hole in the ground.
One possible cause, according to Anna Kurchatova from Sub-Arctic Scientific Research Centre, is the increased warming of the permafrost over the past several years. Such warming, she explained, could have produced a massive explosion as water, salt and gas mixed together and ignited in an underground explosion. In short, global warming caused the melting of the permafrost over what was once a great sea, precipitating an effect not unlike the popping of a Champagne bottle cork, Kurchatova suggested.
Another possibility suggested by Dr. Chris Fogwill at the University of New South Wales in Australia: "Certainly from the images I've seen it looks like a periglacial feature, perhaps a collapsed pingo." He told the The Sydney Morning Herald. "This is obviously a very extreme version of that, and if there's been any interaction with the gas in the area, that is a question that could only be answered by going there."
A "pingo" is a block of Earth-covered ice that can be found in the Arctic and subarctic. If the pingo was enormous, then melted, a giant hole like the one formed in Siberia could result.
The team of scientists dispatched to study the Siberian hole and take samples from the surrounding region arrived on Wednesday. Their findings will likely clear up the "End of the World" crater mystery. Until then, there is plenty of speculation to consider, debate, critique, refute…

My Whole Story (The Condensed Version)
I am a wife and SAHM to 5 daughters. In February 2013, we all went on a family vacation only to come home with E-coli bacteria. We were all fine except our second oldest daughter (9 at the time) who spent 6 weeks at Children's Mercy. What was happening to her was, the bacteria was attacking most of her major organs. Immediately her kidney's stopped functioning, followed by her brain (which landed her in the PICU for a couple days), then her lungs and heart. Thankfully everything recovered except her kidney's. After 6 long weeks in the hospital she came home on daily dialysis and after 11 months (January 2013) her father donated one of his kidney's to her.
In order for her to keep her new kidney healthy and hydrated, right after her transplant she was expected to drink a little over 4 Liters of fluid daily, (now it's down to 3 Liters which is where it will stay). After watching her struggle and suffer over the last year all I wanted to do was something to help make her life easier. She was drinking constantly and either dropping her water bottle, having to set it down to be able to use both hands and then usually forgetting where she set it down so I decided to make a water bottle holder for her to help make this arduous task a little easier. I cannot draw or sew so I cut and taped paper together to show her sewing teacher what I had in mind and (unbeknownst to me) the HOLSTR was born. This product was so convenient and useful for my daughter that I decided I wanted one and was thinking about the items I never leave the house without and figured out how to add them to the water bottle holder. What I was noticing is every time we'd wear the product around people would stop and ask where I got it.
Fast forward one year and this SAHM, who wasn't on Facebook, had no business background, certainly no accounting or marketing experience had a company that was incorporated, a patent pending product, trademark pending name, was working with overseas manufacturers, was quickly learning how to use social media platforms, how to design and run a webpage and was learning real fast that QuickBooks is challenging to the average Joe.
We officially launched HOLSTRit in September 2015, have already redesigned our product per customer feedback, attended over 25 tradeshows in the first 15 months and continue to sell at tradeshows and online. I partnered with Charlie Hustle to use the Heart KC logo on our HOLSTRs. I partnered with the National Kidney Foundation 1 year ago to give back and turn our tragedy into a blessing. I tried out for Shark Tank and will continue to do so each year...because it's fun. I just acquired KU licensing and will have 2 new KU products on the market in August of this year. I am in the process of donating some of our original products to Girls On The Run which is so exciting for me. I continue to grow and learn something new about running a business every day whether I want to or not. This has been a huge challenge, something I never imagined I'd be doing and yet I can't imagine not doing it either. I have been taken so far out of my comfort zone I don't even know where that zone is anymore. I have a love/hate relationship with my business but I'm learning that's what being an entrepreneur is all about.

Military Challenge Coins
Military challenge coins have a long a proud tradition dating back to World War I. The purpose of military challenge coins started out as a way for pilots to prove their identity when shot down behind enemy lines and has evolved into a passion for collecting and winning coins from the different military branches and units. Historically a small coin or medallion, challenge coins have evolved into larger coins with sophisticated markings and colors. The standard size coin is 2" as it easier to carry and produce when challenged, but more and more service members are designing and making coins up to 4.5" which are typically referred to as Car Badges.
The larger sized coins allow for more intricate details, text and logos to be designed into the coins and in the world of collecting and trading coins any coin that is different is more sought after. Military units that are on a strict budget and want to provide challenge coins for each of their members will typically build coins between 1.5" and 1.75" as the size of the coin does impact the price of the build order.
There are many different options when building a military challenge coin but the ones you should focus on is size, shape, plating and edging when custom making your coins. Please visit our Buyer's Guide for more information and pricing options.
Displaying and Collecting Military Coins
Many collectors like to display their coins in a challenge coin display case in their den or office to invite conversation regarding their military service and exploits. Challenge coins "for Excellence" are some of the more sought after coins as they can stoke memories and conversations regarding the holders service. Military challenge coins are typically presented be a unit commander in recognition for excellence service, membership to a particular unit and to visiting dignitaries or officials. When giving a challenge coin, the commander or presenter will typically palm the coin in their right hand and extend a powerful handshake to the recipient, thereby transferring the coin in a formal act of friendship. Many service members proudly display their challenge coins in their home or office as a status symbol or a way to encourage conversation about their time served.
In today's world the military coin has evolved into more than just the personal keepsake. Challenge coins are collected, traded, coveted and horded among not only active duty personnel but also government agencies, fire departments and police forces around the world. As a sign of welcome and respect foreign dignitaries and special guests are frequently given challenge coins to mark their visit to a unit or government office.

I'm 100% sure you have already heard about these two websites. However, do you know the difference between them? Although they might sound very similar, these two eCommerce websites are aimed to different audiences.
On the one hand, Alibaba is the biggest Chinese eCommerce website in the world and it is aimed for other business. In other words, Alibaba.com is a B2B platform where international buyers can get their products from suppliers and manufacturers from China.
On the other hand, Aliexpress is the international branch from Alibaba aimed to small consumers or individuals. Aliexpress was launched worldwide years ago to compete with Amazon in their B2C markets in every country.
Did You Know that…?
Alibaba and Aliexpress belong to the same company? In fact, they are products from the same group, called Alibaba Group. Alibaba Group is one of the biggest companies in China and perhaps the most successful one, specially if we talk about eCommerce and online marketing. Alibaba Group has been developing marketing tools and websites since late 1990 and it is nowadays a worldwide reference in eCommerce, both B2B and B2C.

When to Consider Hospice Care
Is Caring for Your Family Member Starting to Take a Toll?
When your family member's health begins to decline and they can no longer perform simple tasks as they once did, you may feel that it is your duty to care for them. While you may think this course of action the best or only alternative, it cannot only take a toll on you and your family, but your loved one, as well. You may not have the skills or experience needed to provide them with the care they need and deserve. Considering hospice care can be difficult and selecting the right company can be extremely challenging. However, our team at BridgeWay Hospice is dedicated to making you and your family member's lives easier. Not only do we provide unparalleled hospice care, but we also deeply care about the wellbeing of our patients' families. Further, you have our commitment to communicate with you and your loved ones openly and honestly on a regular basis.
Hospice care is for patients whose medical conditions are not responding to treatment or those who choose to forgo aggressive/curative treatment. It is a program for patients who are expected to have a life expectancy of six months or less if the disease follows its natural course.
You should consider hospice care for yourself or your loved one when….
- you or your loved one becomes more dependent while performing daily activities (dressing, eating or bathing)
- pain, breathlessness, nausea or other symptoms become more frequent and/or severe
- ER visits become more frequent
- infections and/or falls increase in frequency
- family and caregivers need emotional and spiritual support
We not only help patients feel comfortable, but we strive to keep their dignity intact for as long as possible. Don't think of hospice as the end of the road—think of it as the beginning of a new way of life for both you and your family member. Anyone can recommend a patient for hospice care by calling our office, 24 hours a day contact us at (678) 583-2269 .

I had never read Watchmen, the highly popular graphic novel by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons (artist). When the movie came out a few months ago, the book gained in popularity again, and I finally caved and got a copy to see what all the hype was about.
I am by no means a graphic novel aficionado, I have just read a few things that have caught my interest over the years, so I'm not one who feeds on these types of books. I have, however, started branching out and trying to read more, and have found it to be a varied experience.
My first thought when I began reading Watchmen was "wow, this is just a big giant comic book." I was drawing back on my childhood experiences, reading X Men and Superman comics, among others. However, when looking at this book through a historical lens, knowing that it was written during the later years of the Cold War, there was a lot to this book. The cynicism, the disillusionment, and the tongue-in-cheek dialogue, especially from the narrator Rorschach, made this a great adult reading experience.
I'll admit that some of the Dr. Manhattan stuff got a little "out there," but I enjoyed the metaphor that lied behind it. That's a good way to describe my overall experience with this book. It was out there, but was a great story that kept having me go "ah yes, I got that, very nice."
Now, does this book have potential in the classroom? First off, if you're talking anything below AP English Literature for Seniors or really insightful Juniors, forget it, don't even bother. If this book fits some kind of unit of study on, say, the Cold War, or in a greater survey of graphic novels, comic books, or something along those lines, then sure, I can see it fitting in terms of its content along those subject lines.
It is a very witty, very multi-dimensional story. There is a lot more sophistication than I was anticipating, and I'm not saying that in a snooty, "those darn kids won't get it, they're just not smart enough," kind of way. I am saying that it simply might go over their heads and end up being just another comic book with an adult theme.
This is a great piece of literature that has aged well, but is an adult piece of literature. I commend anyone who has managed to use this in the classroom and go deeper than surface level with it. Personally, I say it's more of an adult read, but if you've had experiences teaching with this, please share.

Three questions for: Robert Hofmann, ZurQuelle
There are at least as many student magazines as there are universities. Of course, in most cases these simply serve as channels for internal news and focus on helping their readers finding an internship or reveal this week's menu at the canteen. However, the following examples show that you do not necessarily have to come from a design school to publish a student magazine that features broad-based content and is aesthetically convincing and – perhaps most importantly – relevant. These publications feature themes such as society, politics, and culture, while at the same time revolving around the student perspective.
"Colourful, crazy, critical, and challenging" – the student magazine by and for magicians manages to combine all of these contradicting characteristics, while at the same time sending an important message. The reporting is based primarily on the things that characterise student life: openness, tolerance, a love of learning, hedonism, and sometimes also getting plastered and silliness. The editors are independent and pieces are aimed at all of the universities in the Berlin and Potsdam area. The trashy look of the magazine is surprising at first glance and may even be a little off-putting to the newcomer, but it facilitates a direct and easy access to the content. We talked to Robert Hofmann, the editor-in-chief of Zur Quelle magazine, about his work and the magazine's message and future.
1. How did the student magazine Zur Quelle come into existence? And how did it get its name?
Zur Quelle came from a realisation that other student magazines are boring. You have your zany Neon, Zeit Campus, and Unicum, and the thousands of other local or university-based magazines, but none of these are much fun. So we came up with a plan to take matters into our own hands. It started off with a handful of friends and acquaintances at Potsdam University, and then over the course of the year we were joined by more and more people who thought it was high time that someone made such a magazine. The first editorial meeting took place in my local pub, although at that time we had no idea what an editorial team really did. Or how to run a magazine, for that matter. But being a geeky history student, I did know what the publication should be called – as did everyone who frequented the "Zur Quelle" pub: we became "ZurQuelle". The geeky bit comes from the fact that in the wake of the 1848 Revolution, the very first democrats in the first democratic, all-German parliament at the Paulskirche in Frankfurt were not named according to their political affiliations. Instead, the factions were named after the pubs in which they congregated in the evenings. We decided to follow suit, and as such consider ourselves to provide a continuum with the earliest German democrats in the Frankfurt Parliament.
2. What are the editorial aims behind the magazine, and how do you set yourselves apart from other magazines?
First and foremost, we want to entertain our readers. But entertainment is both an end in itself (we're pretty daft and silly for the most part) and a means to an end. We do have a political message. It's not explicitly spelled out or defined, but it's always there. Calling it "left" sounds a bit uptight. We prefer to describe it as "humanist". Of course, that's enough to make us left wing these days. We want our playful feel to draw in people who do might not necessarily share our convictions. In doing so, the hope is that we might be able to plant the seeds of our ideas in their heads. Inception. We are automatically a bit different from most other magazines in that we have a clearly defined target group – students. We set ourselves apart from other student magazines by our political conviction, coupled with our apparently unique no-bullshit take on life. What's more, we don't make university the focus of everything, but rather the students. We don't want to engage them just at university, but everywhere. After all, university is just a part of studying. It also involves unbridled hedonism, a critical attitude, a willingness to reflect on things and, quite simply, a more relaxed approach to life. Your time as students is the best of your life, which is nothing to do with the university itself, and that's what we want to capture.
3. What role does design play in your processeas? And what are your plans for the future?
The editorial and design teams work together closely. It goes both ways. Our design is our pride and joy, and the designers are awesome. In order to make sure that it stays like that, we try to meet each other halfway, to be mindful of one another and, above all, not to fight over the balance between text and design. If we need more room for a good-looking typeface, we cut the text; if the editorial team has a grandiose vision for the design, the designers at least listen to what they have to say.
In 2015 we won a prize as the best German-language student magazine. We intend to maintain this level of quality. Of course, we do have plans for expansion. Sooner or later expansion will become inevitable in any case, as we are looking to finance ourselves in the future. We are currently considering possible sales channels, an on-going regional – or even cross-regional – presence, and stable funding from advertisements, parties, and other sources. But what matters most, and I don't care whether it's a total cliché, is that we want to continue to have fun with our work, without overburdening or shutting anyone out, and simply carry on making the coolest magazine around.

While I did not find an Advent wreath, as I mentioned I wanted to do, I decided to still light a candle each week of Advent. Because even though it's not a wreath, it still turns my heart toward God and fills me with anticipation.
Happy first week of this Advent season.

The headline news last week came from the Fed's chairman, Jerome Powell. In our update last week, we alluded to the new 'show me' phase of the rally in risk assets and boy did he show markets.
Within the realm of what is possible, his U-turn was about as drastic a reversal as a central bank could possibly pull off within six weeks. In December, investors may recall he said that the balance sheet runoff was on autopilot and he didn't see that changing – a hawkish statement. On Wednesday he said that any details of balance sheet normalization can be adjusted in the light of fresh developments.
The autopilot has been switched off and markets took this very positively. Channelling the pop singer Prince, one well regarded Bloomberg columnist remarked: "this is what happens when doves cry."
What is happening on the three topics which may drive markets over the coming months? To recap, these are trade talks, Chinese stimulus taking hold and Brexit. On trade, the US and China have not agreed a deal but the mood from the press conference, which Trump held after the trade talks last night, indicated that the two sides are getting closer to a deal. Furthermore, in a tweet Trump said: "Meetings are going well with good intent and spirit on both sides." Talks continue next week but things appear to be heading in the right direction and markets are responding positively to this.
Turning to whether Chinese stimulus is working - the situation is less positive. Until Wednesday this week, data from China had been OK: data on the Chinese manufacturing sector came in a little better than expected, proprietary survey data from the FT showed that the Chinese consumer entered the year in good shape and freight companies reported a solid start to the year. However, investors woke up this morning to a negative surprise: the Caixin manufacturing PMI fell materially in January. This combination of data gives the impression that the Chinese economy has not bottomed yet and more stimulus and time is needed for this to happen – if it happens at all.
Tuesday saw several amendments tabled in Parliament on the topic of Brexit. The result: Theresa May was sent back to Europe by Parliament to see if she can fix the issues with the back stop. In summary, this week investors saw good news on trade and no real resolution on China data and Brexit.
Away from these three, central bank buying of gold reached its highest levels for almost half a century last year as emerging market central banks try to diversify their large holdings of dollar reserves in the face of rising global trade tensions. Whilst investors may never thought this would happen, a senior German minister has called for measures to stimulate the German economy. Fiscal easing is something the peripheral countries have lobbied for but the fiscally prudent Germans have always rebuffed the request.

The Tolomeo Mega Terra Special Edition - Black with dimmer Arc lamps was designed by Michele De Lucchi and Giancarlo Fassina for Artemide.
Thanks to the filigree, adjustable arms, the Artemide Tolomeo Mega designer light offers an exemplarily high level of flexibility. This means that the light emitted by the Tolomeo Mega Terra is always available wherever it is required. The rope pull mechanism typical of the Tolomeo ensures maximum stability in each position.

Item A
Functionalist sociologists focus on how far individuals accept the norms and values of society. Central to their study of crime is the attempt to understand why people break the rules of society.
Despite their focus on the importance of shared norms and values, functionalists see a small amount of crime as necessary and beneficial to society. The publicity given to crime highlights the boundaries of acceptable behaviour.
However, the beneficial effects of crime for society are limited; too much crime can indicate problems.
Durkheim looks at how crime and deviance is inevitable and needed in …show more content…
Cloward and Ohlin researched subcultures as well, their studies are useful to sociology because he explains the reasons why people commit non-utilitarian crimes and crimes in groups. He argues that WC boys commit more crime, not because they're inherently evil, but instead because they are the most exposed to crime and have the easiest access. Marxists such as Phil Cohen would be criticize this arguing instead that working class boys are pushed towards crime more due to their situations rather than just choosing it as it was easy. He categorizes subcultures into 3 categories, criminal, conflict and retreatist. While they do encompass most subcultures it may not be useful to separate subcultures into such clearcut boundaries. It may prevent us from studying groups individually and make it more difficult to compare groups which overlap.

Barfarama: Babies YawningLeave a comment
February 18, 2013 by thisisemilypaul
Dude babies are like the stupidest thing ever. I mean come on, they're so dumb they shit in their own pants. But I decided to post this video anyway for two reasons:
1) Can you watch this video without yawning? I yawned three times the first watch and then twice when I was actively trying not to yawn during the second watch. Terrible self control you say? You're absolutely right. Today I went into a toy store and bought all the stuffed animal horseys. I'm 26.
2) There are not just babies in the video. The best part is when a tiny hedgehog yawns. Its all like "Ahhhhhhwwwweeeeeeee" with its teenzy hedgehog mouth. WTF is a hedgehog anyway?
But of course the video has to end with something so sappy and idiotic that we all feel connected to everything in the world and everything is so circular and blissed out and we just play a small part of this amazing web of zen and I think I'll go do some yoga. It ends with an unborn baby yawning in one of those scratchy black and white ultrasoundgarden thingys. It's retarded.
Kinda regretting posting this.
