enamel of the teeth.[1] This condition causes teeth to be unusually small, discolored, pitted or grooved, and prone to rapid wear and breakage. These dental problems, which vary among affected individuals, can affect both primary (baby) teeth and permanent teeth. There are 4 main types of AI that are classified based on the type of enamel defect. These 4 types are divided further into 14 subtypes, which are distinguished by their specific dental abnormalities and by their pattern of inheritance.[1] AI can be inherited in an autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive or X-linked recessive pattern.[2]Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) (amelogenesis - enamel formation; imperfecta - imperfect) is a disorder that affects the structure and appearance of the

Overview Reviews Details Accessories Staff Reviews Articles & Videos by David Brown Turn snapshots into works of artWant to take your snapshots to the next level? The Panasonic Lumix LX7 lets you capture outstanding, print-worthy photographs without a bulky camera body or multiple lenses slowing you down. It's advanced Leica lens features impressive light-gathering potential, with a maximum aperture of f/1.4 on the wide-angle end of its zoom range and f/2.3 at the telephoto end. Those numbers mean you can use high shutter speeds to "freeze" fast action in low light, from stage performances to indoor sports, without resorting to the built-in flash. Plus, those ultra-wide aperture settings are perfect for creating dramatic portraits with your subject set crisply in focus against a softly blurred background.HD video, panorama and fast continuous shootingA high-performance lens is only part of the LX7's story. Capture up to 12 shots at a blazing 11 frames per second, at the camera's full resolution. Or combine multiple shots to create high-quality panoramic photos for stunning wide-angle landscapes. Time lapse mode lets you capture motion over time from a fixed perspective, so you can record the changing sky as daylight turns to dusk, or capture the critter that's been raiding your bird feeder. Or just switch to movie mode and record 1080p high-definition video as that raccoon helps himself to your birdseed.Get creativeThe LX7 offers plenty of hands-on shooting options, so you can experiment with making your photos your own. Controls such as the aperture ring, focus lever and rear dial let you manually control focus, shutter speed and light settings, though Intelligent Auto mode can always handle those details for you. There are also 16 creative filters you can apply pre-shot, so you can play with light, color and focus without having to adjust settings manually. The high-resolution 3-inch LCD display automatically adjusts its brightness, so you can review your photos outdoors in the sun without having to retreat to the shade and squint to make sure you captured the perfect shot.

Its 4.7-17.7mm focal length is equivalent to 24mm to 90mm in 35mm film photography. The focusing range is as follows: Normal: 1.6' to infinity AF Macro/Manual Focus: 0.033' to infinity (wide), 0.98' to infinity (tele) Extended Optical/Digital Zoom: The 24-90mm focal length of the lens gives it an optical zoom of 3.8x. The camera's extended optical zoom can increase the zoom up to 6.7x, depending upon the picture size. In addition, the digital zoom extends the focal length by another 4x. Intelligent Zoom (i.Zoom): The camera's Intelligent Zoom uses super resolution technology to extend the optical zoom ratio by approximately 2x while maintaining the original image quality. Recording Media: The DMC-LX7 records images onto its internal memory (approximately 70 MB), or onto SD (8 MB to 2 GB), SDHC (4 GB to 32 GB), and SDXC (48 GB to 64 GB) Memory Cards. Pictures may be copied between cards and the built-in memory if desired. SD cards with a minimum Class 4 speed class are recommended for recording motion pictures. Image Sensor: For optimal image quality, the camera uses a 1/1.7" MOS image sensor with approximately 12.8-million total pixels and 10.1-million effective pixels. Image Recording Format: The camera records still images in JPEG in 4:3, 3:2, 16:9 and 1:1 aspect ratios. Uncompressed RAW images can be recorded for later processing and editing with a PC. You can also simultaneously record a Fine or Standard JPEG along with a RAW image. The camera can also record 60p HD movies in AVCHD, as well as HD and SD movies in MP4. You can choose from the following resolutions for still images and movies: Still Images: 4:3 3:2 16:9 1:1 10M: 3648 x 2736 9.5M: 3776 x 2520 9M: 3968 x 2232 7.5M: 2736 x 2736 7M: 3072 x 2304 6.5M: 3188 x 2112 6M: 3328 x 1872 5.5M: 2304 x 2304 5M: 2560 x 1920 4.5M: 2656 x 1768 4.5M: 2784 x 1568 3.5M: 1920 x 1920 3M: 2048 x 1536 3M: 2112 x 1408 2.5M: 2208 x 1248 2.5M: 1536 x 1536 2M: 1600 x 1200 2.5M: 2048 x 1360 2M: 1920 x 1080 0.2M: 480 x 480 0.3M: 640 x 480 0.3M: 640 x 424 0.2M: 640 x 360 Movies: AVCHD: PSH: 1920 x 1080; Bit Rate 28 Mbps; 60p FSH: 1920 x 1080; Bit Rate 17 Mbps; 60i SH: 1280 x 720; Bit Rate 17 Mbps; 60p MP4: FHD: 1280 x 720; Bit Rate 20 Mbps; 30 fps HD: 1280 x 720; Bit Rate 10 Mbps; 30 fps VGA: 640 x 480; Bit Rate 4 Mbps; 30 fps Optical Image Stabilizer: The Optical Image Stabilizer helps solve the problem of unintentional hand movement that can result in blurry images, particularly with telephoto shots. Battery: The LX7 is powered by a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery (DMW-BCJ13PP). A fully charged battery gives you approximately 165 minutes of recording time, or about 330 images. When recording AVCHD motion pictures, the battery provides approximately 90-100 minutes of continuous recording or 50-55 minutes actual recording time. Playback time using the LCD monitor is approximately 240 minutes. The battery takes approximately 155 minutes to fully charge with the supplied DE-A81B battery charger. Optional AC Adapter/DC Coupler: If you wish to operate the camera using ordinary household current, you will need the optional DMW-AC5PP AC adapter, along with the DMW-DCC7 DC coupler. The AC adapter cannot be used alone, as the DC Coupler provides a plug-in jack for the AC adapter. This is helpful if you have the camera connected to your computer or printer for a long time, or playing back photos in a slide show. LCD Monitor: The DMC-LX7 has a 3" TFT color LCD monitor featuring approximately 921,600 dots and a 3:2 aspect ratio. It has approximately 100% field of view. Optional Viewfinder: The LX7 has a port on the back, just above the LCD monitor, for plugging in the optional DMW-LVF2 External Live Viewfinder. With the External Live Viewfinder, you can view the recording screen, even when taking pictures with a low camera angle. Flash: The LX7 has a built-in flash with a range of 2.6' to 28' (Wide) and 0.98' to 17' (Tele) in Auto ISO mode. The range varies with other ISO settings. Available flash modes include: Auto, Auto/Red-eye, Forced Flash, Slow Sync, Slow Sync/Red-eye, or Flash Off. Optional External Flash: The top-mounted hot shoe allows you to attach an external flash, such as the DMW-FL220, DMW-FL360, or DMW-FL500. Shooting Modes: Using the top-mounted Mode Dial and the menu, the LX7 allows you to choose from the following shooting modes: Intelligent Auto Mode: Optimum settings are made automatically. The camera identifies the scene and sets one of the following: Portrait, Babies, Landscape, Night Portrait, Night Scenes, Close-ups, or Sunsets. Program AE Mode: You can use the recording menu to change settings and set up your own recording environment. Aperture-Priority Mode: You can control the range of focus (depth of field) by setting the aperture. The shutter speed is automatically adjusted to be appropriate for the set aperture value.

Self Timer: The self timer is useful when you want to include yourself in the picture when recording still images. The delay time for single shots can be set to 10 seconds or 2 seconds. You can also use the self timer in Burst mode to take 3 pictures after the delay. Exposure Compensation: If you are shooting against a bright background or strong backlight, you may need to correct the exposure so that the subject doesn't come out too dark. You can set the adjustments from -3 to +3 in 1/3-step increments. Auto Bracket: In the Auto Bracket mode, 3 pictures are taken with different exposures, allowing you to select the picture with the desired exposure. You can set the exposure compensation from -1 EV to +1 EV in 1/3-step increments. Burst Modes: In Burst Mode, pictures can be taken continuously while the shutter button is pressed. You can take up to 12 full resolution photos at up to 11 frames per second. Up to 100 total photos can be taken at slower frame rates (2-5 fps). You can also take photos at 40 or 60 frames per second, but at lower resolutions. White Balance: You can choose from the following white balance modes: Auto: automatically adjusts the white balance Daylight: for recording outdoors on a bright day Cloudy: for recording outdoors under a cloudy sky Shade: for recording outdoors in the shade Flash: for taking pictures with flash Incandescent: for recording under incandescent lighting White Set 1 & 2: sets the white balance manually on a white object Color Temperature: when using the preset color temperature setting ISO Sensitivity: ISO sensitivity represents the sensitivity to light in values.

Product reviews from the Crutchfield Labs A cut above the usual Written by Ralph Graves, Staff Writer - Creative, on 8/30/2012 10:28:00 AM After working with the DMC-LX7 in the Crutchfield Labs, my impression is that this is a point-and-shoot camera for those who want something a little more advanced than a smartphone camera. The Creative Control settings, for example, have a lot of options for some very cool on-the-fly image processing. In addition to standard settings such as sepia and high contrast, it has things like star filter, which adds star highlights (and an element of fun) to your picture. The color on the display really pops, making it easy to see just what the camera does. And the icons line the top and side, keeping them out of the main image area. Toss in 3D image shooting (the camera even tells you how to do it), and high-speed video option, and you've got something more than just an entry-level camera. Nice compact for the photo enthusiast Written by Zak Billmeier, Staff Writer - Creative, on 11/15/2012 9:30:00 AM I've been a fan of Panasonic's LX series ever since the LX3 came out. The LX7 is two generations more mature than that (now) classic digicam, and has evolved nicely. It's a wonderful photographic tool that lets you carry a serious camera without the bulk of interchangeable lens offerings. The LX7 starts with its 24mm wide lens, with a blazing fast f/1.4 aperture. The max aperture means that the LX7 can take the same shots as other enthusiast digicams at lower ISOs — i.e., lower noise in your low-light shots. 24mm is also wider than most compacts, and it's a welcome thing. Equally impressive is the fact that the max aperture is f/2.3 zoomed in all the way (90mm euivalent), which lets you take some portrait shots that look suspiciously like they were taken with a bigger camera. Panasonic has wisely limited the number of pixels, too. Fewer pixels mean that each one is bigger and can gather more light, which comes in handy each and every time you shoot indoors or in fading light. The camera is easy to use as well, featuring a pretty good interface that doesn't get in the way of your shot. And I was surprised how much I liked the high-speed movie feature — you can shoot at 120 frames a second, and get a 720p movie that plays back at 30 frames a second (4x slower). I couldn't stop making slow motion movies of my daughter running around. Great camera. What are the Labs? Sorry, the Panasonic Lumix® DMC-LX7 is no longer available. Looking for a similar item?

|Vermont Fine Wood Furniture Festival in Woodstock
The Vermont Fine Furniture and Woodworking Festival is being held this weekend, Sept 27 and 28, in the central Vermont village of Woodstock. Look for the high school on Route 4 west of the village. Very good directions are on the website too.
The website also lists about 45 Vermont furniture and wood craftsmen including links to their websites. There are some great looking furniture being made here in Vermont so stop by the show if you can or shop from home if you cannot travel to Vermont this weekend.
If addition to the furniture festival, you'll get to visit Woodstock VT which is not only one of the prettiest villages in New England, I think it is one of the best looking in the country. It is located a few minutes east of Exit 1, Interstate 89 near White River Junction VT.

I hope the rest of you will read this, for Hemingway's masterful use of 'said' and dialog pacing. So, so good!

Tagless dialog will move your story right along, and will save you precious words. If you do this, be sure that your reader can keep track of each speaker by
a. giving each one a distinctive voice
b. having them address each other by name every now and then
c. referring occasionally to other identifying events or characteristics
d. adding tags every so often
NOTE: if you find that your story consists almost entirely of dialog, consider writing it in the form of a play or a skit. Or italicize one voice. All-dialog stories are very difficult to write well, but can be very effective when they are.

There's a myth going around that I'd like to swat down. It's supported by working people — maybe even you — who aren't saving enough money to live comfortably when their paychecks stop. The myth says you'll be OK, even if you don't increase your 401(k) contributions or other savings. You'll make up for your small nest egg by working longer. The usual phrase is, "I'll work till I drop."
Many retirement experts tell the same tale. If everyone works and saves until 70, most of the retirement income problem does go away.
That's a big "if." In 2011, only 32.3 percent of men and 18.7 percent of women age 70 or older were still employed in some capacity, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports.
"It's terrible public policy to advise people that they can plan on solving their financial problems by working longer," says Jack VanDerhei, research director of the Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI). "You should take control of your retirement now, while you have the chance." That means reducing expenses and pouring everything you can into savings during the time you have left to work.
You might be able to stay employed until 70 if you're healthy, lucky, well-off, work for a company that keeps older employees, or run a business of your own. But the more familiar story is that of older workers forced out of jobs they'd hoped to keep.
Half of the people retired today say they left work early and unexpectedly, most because of health problems, disability or changes such as downsizing, according to an EBRI survey. Those aren't great odds, if you're counting on working to pay the bills.
You can "power save"
The good news is that you can add a surprising amount to your nest egg in just a few years if you squeeze your spending and make saving money your priority.
Say, for example, you're 50, earning $70,000. You've saved $100,000 in a 401(k) and are contributing 7 percent of your pay — $4,900 a year. If you make no change, and have to leave your job after five years, you'll have $169,000. But if you double your contribution, you'll have almost $200,000 — a much more comfortable cushion. If you double your contribution and work for 10 more years, you'll have $336,700. That could be $531,000 if you make it to 65.
(To estimate the gains, I took the past 10-year returns of Vanguard's U.S. Balanced Index Fund, which holds 60 percent in stocks and 40 percent in bonds — the classic investment mix. The stock and bond portions each follow a major market index. Over the decade ending last November, that portfolio earned almost 7 percent a year, after fees.)

It's coming on Christmas. They're cutting down trees. They're putting up reindeer and singing songs of joy and peace. I wish I had a river I could skate away on.
Kind of perfectly captures the melancholy I face this time of year. I've spent the last two days installing a winter garden in the drizzle. I will be knitting like a madman all tonight and tomorrow to finish the afghan and have time to block it for deliver 12/26, upon which I will HAPPILY bid it goodbye forever...
To all those in exchange program. Expect your package by New Years with my mea culpa.
Cheers to all,
Hey folks,
As I sit here in the smack dab in the middle of 600+ acres of pastoral East Texas I want to wish you all the happiest holiday possible.
Jeff and I are house-sitting for his mother and doing the Christmas thing with the rest of his family, and they're a damn lot of them on the side. I swear this ranch house is so long there is a rest stop between the kitchen and the master bedroom!
I'll blog the weekend with pictures, y'all won't believe it. It's wonderful.
May that big Lone Star shine on you from afar.
Merry Chistmas from Texas y'all!
Gosh!! It has been far too long since I'd last posted here. Thank you all for your greetings and welcoming to the site. It's been wonderful viewing all the knitted items that everyone has been working on, and all the tremendous information that has been shared.
These past few months have been rather hectic, with too much knitting and crocheting of Holiday gifts to be completed, along with the onset of the Winter products arriving in the store and all the hustle and bustle of getting it to the salesfloor; not to mention the assisting of customers in making their choices.
To date I've completed six pairs of socks, four hats and accompanying scarves and mittens, a sweater, and a few comforters, and successfully had them mailed in time to arrive at thier destinations before the Holidays.
Hope everyone has a very joyous Holiday.
I just inadvertantly noticed that it was one year ago today that I joined MWK as member #296. Now, we're up to 688 members with thousands upon thousands of postings. I especially have enjoyed the comraderie of this community and have learned lots of new ideas and techniques to improve my knitting. In particular, I've been frequently awed by the fantastic knitted projects which have been displayed here. Being probably the only male knitter in Middle Earth (I can't seem to discover any others), I'm grateful for the new knitting friends I've made on this site. It really does make a difference to share our craft with other men.
Great holiday wishes for everyone, especially those in the northern hemisphere! Somehow, celebrating the summer solstice isn't quite the same thing...
I'm giving you one link and one attachment this time.
This is a shawl I test knit for someone - and is NOT blocked - merely washed and laid out to dry. Even so it opened up a lot. Here is is, modeled by our resident bear, Blackie.
and the attached photo is laid on the couch.
Mircea Eliade wrote a book titled 'The Sacred And The Profane.' In this book you'll find some interesting ideas about how one person can identify an object as being sacred and another person can look upon the same object and see nothing more than what it is literally. He uses a rock as an example of this. One person could see a magical stone that was placed where it is by something divine (a hierophany), and another person will see the rock as a big hunk of sediment sitting inert.
I see my emotions, happy, sad and otherwise, when I look at an object I have knit. Yet, the person who gets that piece will likely never see those emotions. They are there, but only for me to see. I believe this is why it's difficult to be around someone when they receive something I have spent a long time working on.
since I'll be taking off for 1842 shortly - and doubt I'll be around much before tuesday....
Drat! the mp3 file can't be attached. Oh well.
Never mind. I was gonna sing you all a Christmas carol - but the forum won't let me.
So - instead - I give you Toast for the New Year
Man, when I see all of the things you guys can do, I feel like such a rookie. I've been at it for like 1-2 years now. I'm still working on perfectin socks and booties. I did whip up an ipod kewzie (?spelling) from Men with Balls book last night for one of my son's friends. He though it was cool, but geez, the way you guys can just whip out a sweater, a vest, intricate socks, just blows me away. The only bad thing about the internet is that you guys are all so far away. I wish we could have a convention sometime where 50-100 of us could all meet. I have really gotten encouragement, love, and some common bonds shared with many of you. I love and thank you all for it. I wish everyone the Merriest of Christmases. I hope everyone gets what they want! I wish all of you a happy new year and I hope to continue with our discussions and blogs for years to come. God Bless you all.
Just finished and delivered the third of the Christmas stockings... just made the deadline. I was getting ready to deliver the last one and realized that I had duplicate stitched "Jenie" instead of "Jennie" across the top of the sock. WHAT a nightmare. Anyway...3 1945 Vintage stockings done for a very appreciative family. Those who asked for the pattern, please send me a message to my inbox with your address. I did make some copies.
Hey guys!! How are you all? I haven't posted anything here in a long time. Guess I've been really busy. I hope everyone is having a happy holiday season and looking forward to a wonderful christmas this year.
I've been really busy knitting up a bunch of skinny scarfs, caps and bags and my latest venture is trying to start up a men's knitting group in my hometown. I've posted an ad about it on craigslist, but I'm not sure if anyone around where I live will take interest. We'll see.
My latest project happens to be a crocheted project. I am trying to make myself a knitting bag since I can't seem to find anything around town or online that I like. It seems like all of the knitting bags that are available are made for women (boo!). So I've dug out my camouflage yarn and am attempting to make something that a guy like me won't be embarrassed to tote around.
Anyway that's what I'm up do for now. I'll check back in later... oh by the way guys I love to read all of your posts on here... especially when I'm out and about I can surf to this site on my cellphone and read up on what you guys are doing. I love it. Keep writing and knitting and showing what your making. It

When it comes to staying well — physically, financially, emotionally — we're with you all the way. Find insights and inspirations to help you live a healthier, more secure life.
After a traumatic brain injury, Erin fought the odds to find her inner athlete.
We've all heard that it's a good idea to keep a positive attitude about things. "Look on the bright side," is a common phrase. So is "The glass is half full." And there's the simplest of them all: "Think positive!"
If you're a parent, you do a lot for your kids. You feed them, house them, drive them,…
Watch this short video with 5 simple prevention tips & share with someone you love,…

Staying on track takes hard work—and a tough team. See how Javier is maintaining…
Through good times and crunch times, we've got your back.
Having a positive attitude is important, but is not always easy. Especially when you're faced with a traumatic, life-changing event. But Chrissy has always been a positive person. So, when a sudden blood disease made it necessary for doctors to amputate her arms and legs, she chose not to let the negative in and faced her new life with a smile.
Getting prosthetic limbs meant getting back to the things Chrissy loves.
If children believe in themselves and feel good about themselves, they can do most anything. One of the most important things you can do as a parent is help boost your child's self-esteem and confidence.
When the odds are against you, it can be hard to stay in the game. George experienced this first-hand when a string of injuries and illnesses almost took him down. But he found a way to get back up.
You know yourself better than anyone. And know what you're capable of. That was true with Erin. So when the doctors told her she'd never run again, she knew enough to tell them they were wrong. She'd never backed down from a challenge before, and this time would be no different.
When you're faced with a challenge, you can choose to give up or you can choose to fight back. When faced with the toughest challenge of her life, Tricia chose to fight back. And today, she's in remission from acute promyelocytic leukemia, a type of bone and blood marrow cancer.
Retirement is no excuse to slow down. If anything, it's time to shift gears.
George went from being a giver to a taker. The right support made it easier.
Athlete, adventurer, wife, mother. She is not a cancer patient. She is Tricia.
Here's something you might not know: Kids who are confident about themselves, both inside and out, are less likely to be targeted by bullies.
Do you ever wonder if you're doing what you're supposed to be doing with your life? What if you have talents that could lead you down a new path and change everything for the better? Stop wondering and start doing. Uncover your strengths, light your inner spark and live life like you mean it!
Job stress can force you to compromise who you are – both at home and at work.
Let's say you're walking down the street and you notice someone giving you what you think is a judgmental look. It might have just been a quick glance at your shoes, but all of a sudden you think that person is thinking mean things about your physical appearance.
We encourage everyone to love who they are, whether that means embracing your curves or accepting your personality quirks here and there. But for kids, especially ones between 12 and 21 years old, the urge to conform is normal.
It might come as no surprise that your thoughts play a major role in how you feel physically.
Many kids are embarrassed to admit they're being bullied.
While some parents may be worried that their children are being bullied at school, some may want to have tools to notice if their kids are the ones doing the bullying.
Big name diets are cookie-cutter. Ironically, they're one-size-fits-all. They aren't made for your one-of-a-kind true self.
You may already know that exercise gives you strong muscles and a healthier heart. But did you know it can also make you a happier person?
The word "diet" isn't part of Jaci's vocabulary. To her, there's no such thing as a diet. Diets don't work. Changing your life works.
Spring cleaning season might be over, but the time for summer DIY projects are just around the corner. So how about this: In addition to building something out of recycled pallet wood and converting your old windows into picture frames, why don't you turn yourself into a DIY project?

text: Caws Cenarth recently created a spectacular new organic blue cheese, named Perl Las. It is a truly different blue-- when young, it has a light, slightly salty flavor. When more mature, it becomes golden in color with an advancing, yet still delicate taste. Perl Las fills the mouth with an array of exciting sensations. Described by the judges at the Organic Food Awards as "lovely and unique with a strong lingering flavor", Perl Las has instantly become one of our favorite new blues! It compares favorably to other favorites like Cashel Blue from Ireland and Berkshire Blue from Massachusetts.

|Vermont Fall Foliage 2010
We got off to an early fall foliage here in Vermont but the colors are still
changing and we have many days left before we're past peak everywhere. I
was looking at the hillside across the street yesterday and was pleased to
see so much bright red and orange has shown up.
As usual, some hillsides are further along than others. Looking closely at the
trees here at the inn, I see some trees that have few leaves left holding on
and other trees that have only just begun changing and are still mostly green.
The tree above is in front our inn and always looks spectacular for a week or
so every year. It doesn't look very good the rest of the year and I hardly pay
attention to it. But when fall rolls around, this tree is one of the first to blossom
with a bright color that makes up for the other weeks of the year.
When the lighting is just right, this maple has a day-glo orange color that is
sometimes so bright, it almost looks fake - as though someone painted it a
color that you would only see on a hot rod, not a tree. It is past its peak now (I
took the photo about a week ago) but plenty of its sylvan neighbors here are
looking very good.
Some people here predicted a quick end to the foliage because of the early
start but they've been proven wrong and I think we have at least a good ten
days left and longer in some areas like the Lake Champlain valley.

|Short Term 35% Discount at Killington Ski Resort
Vermont's Killington resort has a "K55" deal available for a short time that you should
take a look at if you are thinking of skiing there a few times this year. The K55 is a
one day lift ticket that costs "just" $55 which is almost a 35% discount from the weekend
window rate of $85. The offer expires October
The K55 is not good during the usual peak periods of late Dec-Jan, mid Jan
MLK weekend, and Presidents' Day week in late Feb.
You are limited to ten tickets but if you are going to buy that many, you should
take a look at some of the other discount programs Killington offers such as
the Express Card or the On-line Etickets. Of course the best deal is a
season pass. You can see some details and analysis on this Alpine Zone page.
Known as "The Best of the East," Killington is the largest ski area in the
East. It has 200 runs and 33 lifts spread out over seven mountains. But a
contender has mounted a challenge to that claim, Sugarloaf in Maine is
adding more acreage and will be larger in some categories. If you care, see
the "East's New Beast - Sort Of" article on Skinet.com.

DesignerPatricia Urquiola
Patricia Urquiola began training as a student in architecture at Faculdad de Arquitectura de Madri before graduating in design from Politecnico di Milano in 1989, where she studied under Achille Castiglione.
In 1991, as head of the product development team at De Padova, Urquiola designed her first commercial furniture pieces (in collaboration with Vico Magistretti). They were highly imaginative yet functionally pragmatic, an appealing combination that has defined her work since.
From 1993 to 1996, Urquiola owned a studio with two friends, accepting commissions in architecture, interiors, showrooms, and restaurants. From 1996 to 2000 she managed the design group Lissoni Associati, then opened her own studio in Milan, focusing on product design, displays, and architecture.
On Re-Trouve: "Re-Trouve's inspiration came from the marvelous icon chairs of the '50's, so full of curls and doodles. I wanted to create new models which would bring together a re-interpretation of this old-fashioned design with a more humorous twist, produced with numerical control technology." The geometricdesign gives three-dimensionality to the pieces.

Oval Tips
Reviewed By Steve O (Youngstown, OH) Reviewed for a 2011 Toyota Tundra —12/18/2014 6:41 AM
Quality product. Look nice and sound good. Easy to put on.
Reviewed By James A (Powhatan, VA) Reviewed for a 1996 Toyota Tacoma —12/11/2014 8:14 AM
the tip is well machined, polished to perfection and performs well. There is a problem however. The bolt used to draw up the tip around the exhaust pipe is too small. When trying to draw up the tip around the exhaust pipe, the bolt stripped the threads on the nut and bolt. Went to the local auto parts store, got a larger sized bolt nut and washer set up and it now works perfectly.
