The Narrative of an Awakening (10 of 12) by Jerry Watts
This content is part of a series.The Narrative of an Awakening (10 of 12)
Series: Aiming for an Awakening
Jerry Watts
Acts 1:14, 2:1-4
• Jesus had just ascended to heaven before their very eyes. Quite honestly I submit that, at this point, they might have well been 'heart sick.' After all they had pinned their hopes to Jesus - only to have them crushed at this horrific death. Then miraculously, He came back from the dead and for 40 days walked and talked with them about the Kingdom of God. Just when they 'thought' everything was going well, Jesus had taken them just outside of Jerusalem to a hillside for some more teaching and in this unbelievable way, He left! They saw Him ascend to heaven. Their leader and Lord was now gone. It seems to me that not even the words of the two men (angels) did much to dissuade their hurt and anxiety. They followed His words and returned to Jerusalem to wait, but they didn't even know what they were waiting for!
• For me, this small group is primed for the gracious God of creation and salvation to do something extraordinary. By the way, when we pray for an "Awakening", chances are that we don't really know what we are waiting for. When God shows up - all bets are off. Personally, that is GREAT WITH ME because I can identify with the talking points, the narrative if you will, for a spiritual awakening. I offer you 4 words as a narrative to this.
1. Desperation - When I read 1:14 - this word comes to my mind because all they had worked toward and the one they had bodily walked with were gone! They were left on their own. So what did they do? They prayed. It was the default for the first century church. When something happened - pray. However, nothing drives us to prayer like desperation.
• You do remember the story about the church debating problems and the pastor suggested they 'pray about it'. With her hand over her mouth one lady said, "Oh my goodness, had it come to that?" How many times have I told that story - and followed with ...

Wow! Glad your not a fish! One of the coolest glances back I have ever seen.
Thanks Bill; much appreciate it
Wow, wow and wow Daniel so wonderful!

Thank you for the feature Teresa
Many CONGRATULATIONS on your wonderful feature, lovely work.
Thanks AndreaEL; greatly appreciated
Very impressive capture! I love the pose you've caught him in. Wonderful image, the timing and clarity is great!
I wonder if you could take a moment and have a look at this I am having so much trouble getting a positive ID on it – initially I thought it was an Osprey and now I'm not sure at all. Would love to hear you opinion!
Again, what a beautiful shot – you should be really proud of this!
I Looked at your image. With the colour tone of the image and no scale reference points to identify its size, it is difficult to tell. Based on the overall shape and proportion of the head and body with the tail feathers, it does not appear to be an osprey, or at least not compared to the ones I have seen in the Ottawa On area. Nice image none the less!
Thanks very much Daniel, really appreciate you taking the time!

Lovely pub the breakfast was great, the rooms felt a little bit dated could use a facelift.
Stayed for a wedding close by so worked out well, overall enjoyed our stay.

The Dog
Staff are very friendly and helpful.
Had dinner by the wood burner and what better way to start the day than breakfast in front of an open fire. Food for both meals was great. Our room was above the kitchen so you can hear the extractor fan. Water pressure in the shower isn't great so a bath using the lovely bath salts supplied would be preferable. We would happily stay here again if in the area. Wish we lived closer to be bale to pop in for meals.

Welcoming and extremely friendly
Although "The Dog" was hosting a Christmas Party for its locals, my friend and I were made extremely welcome and "included" in the festivities.
All the staff were professional and friendly. The room was spacious and well appointed. We had dinner and breakfast which were both excellent. I would not hesitate to recommend this establishment which sits in very pleasant surroundings.

Character inn, with a good menu and good quality food
Excellent friendly country Inn
I stayed here on a business trip, as a female traveling alone.
The accommodation was fresh and welcoming, and the food excellent. The staff were very efficient while being genuinely attentive and helpful; they had a very positive influence on the atmosphere. The other customers of both the pub and the hotel were very relaxed and clearly happy in their surroundings. I would not hesitate to recommend The Dog, based on my experience there.

Our stay at The Dog , Over Peover
Excellent, looking forward to our next visit
It's a Pub
Do bear in mind that The Dog is a pub with rooms.
so operating hours and the related noise are to be expected; no issue there. For me the bed I had wasn't the most comfortable and the shower was very hit or miss. While refurbs are welcome, the smell of paint and finding my door propped open on returning one day wasn't. But that'll be history the next time. Will stay there again though, hopefully in a different room.

Just been to a wedding near by and stayed at the Dog, lovely place, and lovely people, would recommend you give it a try
A little gem
To be fair I was reluctant to put a review on as I don't really want it to get too popular.
That would be selfish of me though. Lovely hotel in a quiet country lane, good beer, good food, good room. Great staff

Hop on one of our rental scooters or Vespas and tour the Maui coastline with the sun on your toes and the wind at your back! Even a convertible doesn't compare to riding the coast on Maui on two wheels. With the stunning ocean on one side and volcanic mountain range on the other, the panoramic views on a scooter are unbeatable.
Scooter rentals are simply the easiest way to hop from beach to beach on Maui's west side, and we have a lot of the world's best beaches for you to explore 🙂
Scooter rentals are also the best way to enjoy the north coast of Maui, a special part of the island often missed on the standard "Road to Hana" map. Create your own vacation triathlon combining your scooter ride with top snorkeling and hiking spots for the day… or just cruise, cruise, cruise.
Whatever your desire, let us rent you your dream on Maui!
Anyone with a US or International driver's licenses can rent our 50cc scooters. But we do request that you have experience riding scooters or motorcycles – and – you are familiar with the rules of the road.
Not an experienced scooter rider? No problem – ask us about our eBikes (electric bikes)!! They can scoot you around town or to the beach beach even easier than a scooter, they can be parked virtually anywhere. Riders need to be at least 16 years of age and riders under 18 will need to wear a bike helmet (provided free, of course!). 😉
If you have a motorcycle license, you're in luck. We are West Maui's exclusive scooter shop with Vespa rentals. Vespas can seat two riders. We have 150 cc, 200 cc and 250 cc Vespa models for rent.
We offer the best quality and selection of Vespa, moped & scooter rentals on Maui's west side. Motoroshi Maui is conveniently located in downtown Lahaina, on Lahainaluna Road, directly off Front Street right next to Lahaina Grill restaurant. We operate our scooter rentals shop out of Cafe Cafe, so you can grab an espresso drink before you head out in the morning and treat yourself to a refreshing smoothie when you return.
We also offer picnic lunches in coolers, and beach mats, so there's nothing holding you back from exploring the best of Maui all day long.
We offer convenient hours for scooter rentals in town, 7 am – 1 pm, 7 days a week! We encourage reservations online, but welcome walk-in customers on a first-come first-served basis daily.
Test out a scooter or electric bike rental with a 3-hour rental, or book us by the day, or a full week. We love it when we hear "I'm coming back later this week to do this again," so be prepared to fall in love with scooting around Maui.
We can't wait to share our scooters and eBike experience with you!

Author | exchange4media Mumbai Bureau | Monday, May 23,2011 8:38 AM
Matrix has launched its latest TVC for the Matrix ForEx Cards starring Shah Rukh Khan and key players from the Kolkata Knight Riders team. The commercial follows Matrix's tie-up with the KKR team for Indian Premier League Season 4 as Principle Sponsor. The TVC, created by Equus Red Cell, was released on-air on May 19, 2011.
The TVC first attracts attention for the use of the 'Don' theme. Swapan Seth, Founder and CEO, Equus Red Cell, divulged that the forthcoming release of the movie played a role in taking the 'Don' route. In a conversation with exchange4media, he said, "We thought the theme would generate greater curiosity. In fact, it was SRK who kindly offered it since he loved the idea and the film."
In the ad film, SRK and his team players are arrested for 'killing cash'. Much like the movie, the commercial also includes a chase sequence, followed by an interrogation, where 'Don' and his team members speak on why cash had to die. Sharing more on what led to the use of this thought process, Seth said, "The idea of humanising Cash was interesting. Then to create a murder, a chase, an arrest and consequent interrogation of SRK and the KKR Knights was all a juicy plot."
The TVC is planned to be on-air for at least another four weeks. In an earlier conversation, Matrix officials had informed that the brand was looking at spending around Rs 18-20 crore in the campaigns around KKR. The campaign would be seen in print as well.
Matrix has been niche in the manner it has advertised, but associating with a platform as large as the IPL would take the brand to a broader level of connecting with consumers. This was the reason to partner with KKR and the IPL in the first place, and this latest commercial is another step in that direction for Matrix.

How to extract sound file from pressure-time OpenFoam data?
I am very new to OpenFoam fantastic world, disovering stunning things everyday I try it. I already 'played' for a while with different functionalities. I got stuck at some point, though, and I hope you foamer experts could give a hand on that.
I would like to extract a sound file from the pressure-time data caculated after running any Foam solver on a pipe case, for instance, i.e. I ran the case, already, I have the pressure in the time directories, but I would like to transform it into a sound file, so I could assess the reliability of my results.
I had read (and tried) about probeToAudio, which was available in previous versions of OpenFoam (I have the lastest OpenFOAM-1.6-x) but although I implemented it and check it on pitzDaily tutorial case, with the probes as indicated in http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Contrib_probeToAudio, I got the same error result :

I am still not really familiar with implementing a new lib or application into an existing openFoam set, so I might have done something wrong.
I hope I was clear enough so that some of you can take a bit of their time to answer me.
Thank you!
Hi Bertrand,
I'm the one who wrote the utility and finally got a first feedback since the public release of more than two years ago! :) Shall take a look and let you know when fixed.
Hello Takuya,
Thank you for your very quick answer!
Actually, after writing my post, I tried again, and eventually could get it to work after installing setFunkyFields (which needs bison to be installed as well). The only thing is it didn't work with '/probes/0/p' but with 'probes/0/p' :). I am pretty new to Linux, so I gotta get to know about syntaxes, installing packages and so on.
Although, I have 2 questions :
1. When I try to run potentialWaveFoam on the example case you gave, i.e. reverberationRoom, here is the error message that comes :
| ========= | |

2. About the probeToAudio utility :
I tried on my 'special cavities' with initial conditions such as sinus or 1st half of a sinus and then clamped for the 2nd half. I could get the fundamental frequency I gave as an input. So it roughly gave me the tune I was looking for, which is a good start!!
A. How shall I use the sample rate now, if I want to have the exact fundamental frequency (and not an octave higher, lower), if I have, let's say, I have a pitch of F0 = 500 Hz, but I would like to catch more details about the overtones produced by this frequency?
B. How to represent data's from the probe file into a spectrum-plot? Is there a possibility for paraView?
Again, thanks a lot if you have time to answer one of these questions, I know I asked some... ;)
1. Can you try removing the whole potentialWaveFoam and its subdirectories, and start over from checking out the subversion repository?
2.A. I am not sure if I am getting your question right. The utility simply sets the sampling rate from the deltaT entry in controlDict and does no more complex processing. If you want to extract overtones you have to use a high-pass filter of some audio processing software or write your own somehow.
2.B. In theory yes you can use "FFT Of Selection Over Time" in ParaView, but I don't think it's a realistic option because you have to save/load the field data at every time step. I'd suggest you start by trying any one of audio processing softwares, for example Audacity, which is available from Synaptic if you are using Ubuntu. If that's not enough for you, you may have to write your own with e.g. SciPy.
about the third answer(2B), I'm not so sure if using fft over time really needs to write all timesteps! I think we can write just SOME timesteps and have a good estimate of the result by for example 200 or 300 timesteps saved. although this might be inefficient for large cases, but could be used in some simpler cases.
help me if I'm wrong!!
Thank you,
Mohammad H.
Note that I said "I don't think it's a realistic option", of course only from my point of view. If you think different, just feel free to go ahead (and hopefully share your experience).

Kingsbridge Police find stolen vehicles before owners realise they're gone
By Sam Acourt in Crime
KINGSBRIDGE police officers located a stolen van and boat before the owners even knew they had gone.
On Wednesday, December 28, at around 4.30pm, a Kingsbridge police officer was on a routine patrol when he noticed a yellow Renault van towing a RIB on a trailer. Suspicious, the officer pulled the vehicle over to conduct a check.
While the officer was checking the vehicle, he received news that the two of the Coastguard Rescue Team from HM Coastguard in Falmouth, had assisted a yellow Renault van in South Sands, when it had become wedged on a hairpin bend.
The Coastguard officers had been suspicious of the two occupants and the information was passed to the police.
After the officer at the scene carried out more investigations, the two men in the van were arrested on suspicion of theft and taken to Torquay.
Further investigations revealed that the boat had been stolen from a residential driveway in Salcombe and the van had been stolen from a yard in Plymouth.
Neither the owner of the boat or the van were aware that their vehicles had been stolen, until they received phone calls from the police.
The two men who were arrested have been interviewed and bailed until next year, while further investigations take place.
A spokesperson for Kingsbridge Police said: 'This was an excellent example of proactive policing and teamwork by all officers involved.
'Police in Kingsbridge and indeed across the South Hams are working hard to prevent and detect marine crime offences under the name Operation Ashmead.'
In order to reduce the risk of becoming a victim of marine crime, police advise following the security checklist:
· Don't leave anything loose in the cockpit or on the deck
· Always put your valuables in a strong, fixed locker and secure with a quality deadlock or padlock
· Take your personal and vessel papers with you – don't leave them on board
· Don't leave your home address on show
· Don't leave your keys in the ignition – always take them with you
· Keep your boat keys separate from your engine keys
· Make sure your curtains are closed so no-one can look in
· Ensure all unused ropes, fenders and other items are out of sight in your cockpit lockers and cupboards
· Make sure that your life raft and outboard motor are secure, as these are valuable and attractive to boat thieves
· If you're leaving your boat on a trailer for the winter consider putting it on blocks
· Keep your list of serial numbers up to date
·Take pictures of your property so that it can be easily identified if recovered
Official advice states: 'If you are the victim of boat theft, call the police immediately on 101. Check to make sure that your boat is still seaworthy and hasn't been badly damaged. And, if you can, check that neighbouring boats haven't been broken into as well.
'If your call is an emergency, ie a threat to life, or if a crime is in progress, call 999 immediately.
If it is simply a matter of informing the police of a marine incident that does not require an immediate response then call Devon and Cornwall Police on 101, email at email@example.com. co.uk, or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.'

BROWSE Newlands
The beautiful suburb of Newlands is known all over the world, mostly because of the famous Newlands rugby stadium and Sahara cricket grounds but after one visit you'll find yourself returning again and again.
With easy access from the M3 and N2 highway, Newlands is situated 10km from Cape Town and 18km from Cape Town International Airport.
Willem van der Stel, son of Simon van der Stel, followed in his fathers' political footsteps and in 1700, as Governor of Cape Town, he was awarded land outside of Cape Town. He named the area De Nieuwe land, and developed it as a country estate. Between 1791 and 1826 ownership of the area went from private to government to private. In 1860 the village of Newlands was established and by 1864 the railway line was extended to Newlands.

IntroductionWe often come across numbers that follow a particular pattern which enables us to find the next term. One such interesting concept invented by Leonardo Pisa, later known as Fibonacci (Fibonacci Series) helps us in the study of natural happenings like branching of plants, leaves and petal arrangement, reproduction rates of rabbits etc.
Fibonacci sequence is 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8....... Can you guess what the next number is? (The next number will be 8 + 5 = 13)
Let us consider some simple examples:
- The Fibonacci sequence is seen in the reproductive pattern of honey bee.
- As we walk up or down stairs, sometimes we unconsciously count the steps. If each step rises by 16cm and we climb 10 steps of a stair-way up, we would have gone up by 160 cm totally. One step takes us 16cm up, 2 steps 32 cm and so on. This forms a pattern: 16, 32, 48,...., 160. You might recollect that this is an arithmetic progression (already done in earlier class) with a common difference of 16.
- A ball is dropped from a height of 6 metres, and on each bounce, it rises of the previous height.
This follow the pattern: 6, 4, 4, After a long time, the ball comes to rest and we can use a mathematical formula to determine the total distance covered by the ball. (We shall see this later in this Chapter)
Some more examples of patterns of numbers
- 6, 16, 26, 36...
- 1, 3, 9, 27...
- 1, 6, 16, 36, 76... (Multiply by 2 and add 4 to it to get the next number)
- 10, 8, 6, 4...
- 0.4, 0.44, 0.444.... (dots are decimals)
- (dots stand for multiplication)

Digital Turbine Inc. (NASDAQ: APPS) is betting on the word of mouth to get the message about its products out to potential customers and partners. The company has recently favored investor conference presentations to drum up publicity for its solutions and the latest conference presentation was this week at the B. Riley 17th Annual Investor Conference.
The event that took place in Los Angeles, California saw Digital Turbine Inc. (NASDAQ: APPS)'s CEO, Bill Stone, make a presentation. Other officials of the company hosted one-on-one meetings at the B. Riley annual conference. In a securities filing, the company said its presentation would include certain balance sheet information.
In the coming weeks, the company is scheduled to participate in another annual investor conference organized by Craig-Hallum Institutional. The event will take place in Minneapolis, Minnesota on June 1. Digital's CEO Stone, will again represent his company at the investor conference, especially hosting meetings throughout the day.
There is no doubt that Digital Turbine Inc. (NASDAQ: APPS) is putting a high premium on conference presentations. It appears the management has got to a point where they think that the company needs to actively and directly reach out to potential partners and customers.
Strong demand
In a recent commentary about Digital Turbine Inc. (NASDAQ: APPS)'s financial results for the March quarter, CEO Stone talked about the strong demand they were seeing for their products. He said that the company will in the future focus intently on actions that will ensure that it takes maximum advantage of the underlying demand to deliver better financial results going forward.
Digital Turbine Inc. (NASDAQ: APPS) F4Q2016 financials
Digital released preliminary F4Q2016 results that showed revenue in the range of $23 to $23.5 million. Although the revenue range suggests that revenue increased by a factor of 45% over the previous quarter, the management said the performance would have been much better had it not been for delays in Galaxy S7 launch. Unfavorable development with one of the company's major North American telco accounts also adversely impacted the quarter's topline.
Digital Turbine Inc. (NASDAQ: APPS) finished the quarter with $11.3 million of cash and equivalents. But the management didn't say whether the amount was enough to finance operations through F2017.

Knowlegeable and easily accessible attorney. He clarified everything clearly. Was pleasure working with him.
Posted by anonymous
I am a Disabled Senior Latino. Rajeev Madnawat, Esq. was assigned by the Santa Clara County Bar Association to Arbitrate my claim, in their office on August 21, 2012, of excessive fees charged by an attorney in my divorce petition. My complaint centered on the attorney charging me $1,852.92 while accomplishing zero in my divorce matter. The Bar Association Rules said I could present my case supported facts to justify my contention that I was overcharged.
My position was that my X-attorney had lied throughout our relationship and I wanted to prove that his invoices were inflated and manufactured to support his scenario, that my divorce petition had gained zero and our contract had not been fulfilled. Mr. Madnawat took charge and decided I was not going to be allowed to make my presentation.
Mr. Madnawat challenged my integrity and honesty, when I tried to challenge my opponent's. My competence to fire off dates and facts so easily when recounting the truth exasperated Mr. Madnawat. Meanwhile my opponent was clumsy trying to make his invoices "fit" his story.
Mr. Madnawat suddenly changed the arbitration subject to my Contempt of Court Conviction on November 1, 2010. Mr. Madnawat again challenged my testimony where I explained that Judge Johnson told me in an aside that she was not sentencing me to jail because I had not threatened or verbally abused my wife. Mr. Madnawat said my statement was not true, twice telling me that the Judge would never explain her reasoning in court; never say what she did in fact say. I told the truth and I should know what Judge Johnson said as she spoke directly to me. Mr. Madnawat also brought up the current status of my divorce, which was not relevant to the arbitration hearing. Mr. Madnawat telling me that I was incorrect about that too; about being scheduled to having a Case Management Conference prior to my scheduled trial in October. Mr. Madnawat finally quit this attack on my creditability when I pointed out to him that just because I have a trial date does not mean there will be a trial. Mr. Madnawat never challenged any of my opponent's testimony or submissions.
Mr. Madnawat then decided to attack my wife's character which also had zero to do with the arbitration hearing. Mr. Madnawat told me, and thus the group of us attending the hearing, that my wife was crazy and what I should do protect myself from the manic.
Mr. Madnawat had serious problems sticking to the financial issues. Mr. Madnawat's emotionality so overwhelmed him he forgot we were having an arbitration hearing not a judgment. The arbitration subject was fair and honest billing; a day's work for a day's pay. Mr. Madnawat's did not focus to the purpose of the arbitration hearing. I would never engage him if I ever needed an attorney nor would I recommend him.

Operation Souverain was an French operation during Great Patriotic War at the Western Front at the British Hadrian Line. The operation was aimed against the Tweed River, as a staging point for a subsequent thrust over the river to the Liddel Water into Scotland. It was conducted by the First and Ninth French Army.
The offensive commenced on 16 November 1941 with one of the heaviest French tactical bombings of the war. However, French advance was unexpectedly slow, against heavy British resistance, especially in the Northumberland Forest through which the main thrust of the offensive was carried out. By mid-December the French finally reached the Tweed and tried to capture its important dams, when the British launched their own offensive dubbed Visionnez sur la Rivière. The ensuing Battle of the Bulge led to the immediate cessation of the French offensive efforts into Scotland until February 1943.


text: [Audio Gap]we's tend to be very much focused on what we call our target market. And we looked at organizations that are of a size and complexity that we can have good economic relationships with them. We invest a lot in our people, tools and processes so it doesn't make sense for us to be working for smaller organizations, or for -- even for large organizations, so much on smaller projects. We need one that actually tests the people and you get the benefit of all the investments we do. So we tend to look very much at that target market and measure and reward people for assignments there. The inorganic one, we've -- first, we did the Extend Health acquisition in the last year. That's a real good example of something that we think will pay off quite handsomely in the future. And it's the kind of acquisition that we like a lot because it's got a great cultural fit. The Extend Health people are ones that, as I've mentioned, we've known for a long time by them being our referral -- by us being a referral partner for them. We knew they were people that shared our values and that had a common approach to client service and to the market. Strategically, it fits with a great adjacency to what we did, the business that we understood, the value proposition because we've been working with our clients to choose Extend Health. It's a business that we understood what you needed to do to be successful in. So again, that great strategic fit there. And then finally, we also want to look for acquisitions where there's a good financial return on that. Roger and Bryce are going to talk a little bit about that later. But we expect to get a good financial return on Extend Health. And I think we're -- that's the same kind of thing we'll be applying as we look at potential future acquisitions.

When thinking about New York City, the term environmentally green buildings does not seem to resonate through the minds of most residents. The city offers numerous entertainment venues and sight seeing ventures for everyone. In light of all the fun things to do, it is beginning to be a heighten awareness of trying to conserve the natural resources in New York. The population in this city is growing by leaps and bounds each year.
The major leaders in the construction industry are focusing more on constructing environmentally friendly office buildings along with residential dwellings. It is hard to believe that Battery Park in New York City is one of the largest areas that has been deemed environmentally friendly. This is done by being considerate of the natural resources like the land and water that surround this location, as Anthony Malkin did with the Empire State Building.
Owners of large apartment buildings understand the importance of using eco-friendly appliances that conserve usage of electric especially during peak hours. Energy efficient windows are the standard for most new residential homes. New York City is densely populated and the thought of running out of a vital natural resource like water is a reason for concern.
During the summer months certain areas experience black-outs or brown-outs. These occurrences are the warning signs that something is definitely wrong. Another alternative such as solar panels and wind turbines have been incorporated into the scheme of producing electricity. In the height of the summer months during heatwaves, many electrical outages are experienced on a daily basis.
The shortage of water and the limits put on the usage of water have caused world wide alarm across the nation. Many architects have incorporated methods of recycling rain water along with using solar panels to conserve electric and water. Building that have solar panels for electricity are protecting the environment for the next generation. Concrete and asphalt are in the places where grass would be. Plants in a planter box can be placed on the deck of a high-rise energy efficient green building. The plant will help keep the surrounding air clean.
The belief has been that the earth's natural resources would not ever run out. Society realizes that this is not the case anymore. Oil and natural gas are on the list of resources that need protecting also. Water, gas and electric are rare commodities that need to be protected. Battery Park is a reminder that green is beautiful.

Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/News/March 2013/Interview
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Former Yugoslavia
In our latest interview, the Bugle continues its "Article writer's guide" series detailing the nuances behind certain categories of Wikipedia articles. We'll bring you answers from some of the foremost Wikipedia writers in the areas we examine, in the hope that their advice may help you to enter these areas and find success. This month we look at the Former Yugoslavia. Don't forget that if you have a good topic for a future Bugle edition, please add it on our newsletter's main talk page.
- Thank you for agreeing to answer some of our questions. What draws you to Wikipedia's articles on the Former Yugoslavia?
- Peacemaker67: I served there in the 90's with the United Nations then NATO, and soon began to wonder about how they had all got to the dark place I was briefly sharing with them. It was so completely alien to my experience growing up in Australia. And the most recent prior conflict was WWII, so I sort of backtracked to that point and became fascinated with the complexity of how WWII unfolded in that part of the world.
- Prioryman: I studied the history of the western Balkans at university. I later visited the region during the Croatian and Bosnian wars (and visited Dubrovnik a few months after the end of the 1991–92 siege). A few years after that, I got involved in organising military liaisons with the countries of the region. I had an academic, professional and personal interest in that part of the world, so it was natural for me to get involved in editing articles on the topic when I started contributing to Wikipedia in 2003.
- Joy: I come from Croatia, so it's basically writing about what I know. When I look back at some of my first edits, sadly they overwhelmingly indicate that what initially drew me to edit those articles were egregious NPOV issues that I was trying to fix. These days the situation is considerably better, although it still needs a lot of work.
- How did you come to choose some of the articles you've written?
- Peacemaker67: It was pretty organic really. After working on the Chetniks article for a while, I realised that I needed a lot more WP skills and knowledge to tackle such a huge topic, so I started with a biography of a mid-level Chetnik commander called (Pavle Đurišić) and was very fortunate to quickly strike up a good collaborative arrangement on that article with an experienced editor (User:PRODUCER), who also has the language skills I lack (Serbo-Croatian, German and/or Italian are pretty important). We also collaborated with success on another Chetnik biography, Dobroslav Jevđević. About the same time I thought I'd tackle some of the key Axis units that fought the Yugoslav Partisans so I branched out on my own to explore the locally-recruited Waffen SS divisions, and managed to get 13th Waffen Mountain Division of the SS Handschar (1st Croatian) (a Muslim SS unit) to FA as an essentially solo project. PRODUCER and I have now started a fledgling special project called Operation Bora to organise and track the progress of our work on articles relating to WWII in Yugoslavia. We are hoping to gather together some like-minded editors and eventually establish it as a formal joint special project between WP:MILHIST and WP:Yugoslavia.
- Prioryman: Mostly randomly, to be honest! For the most part, it was just whatever attracted my interest. Battle of Vukovar was the exception. I wanted to write an article to mark the 20th anniversary of the Croatian War but rather than write about the war in its entirety, I chose an episode that I felt captured the origins, savagery and ultimately the pointlessness of the conflict. The article appeared as Today's Featured Article on 18 November 2011, 20 years to the day after the city fell to the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA). The JNA won the battle but only succeeded in acquiring a completely destroyed town and ultimately lost the war. Today the town is back in Croatian hands after being handed back peacefully. Nobody won, in the end, and both sides now have to live with the physical, political and emotional legacy of the battle; to me, that outcome sums up the utter waste that the Yugoslav Wars represented.
- Joy: Well, by clicking on hyperlinks :) I prefer to spend my time mostly in the article space (I'm also an administrator), but I don't have any specific method of choosing articles to start or to contribute to. Sometimes it's a toponym, sometimes it's a lead section of a biography, sometimes it's a detail in a description of a historical period. Writing about the Battle of Vukovar came naturally, because, well, my father was 15 km away from there throughout that time. Having a personal connection to topics helps keep one motivated, but the basic editing principle must always remain the same: cover every topic with the same level of level-headedness (heh).
- Generally speaking, what should be covered in the particular subjects you've chosen to write about? How do you structure your articles?
- Peacemaker67: In biographical articles I try to ensure that everything is covered, warts and all, as there is a tendency towards skipping or whitewashing the embarrassing or inconvenient aspects of important or iconic individuals in this part of the world, a tendency which many sources say has got worse, not better, since the death of Tito in 1980 and even since the wars in the 90's. What we would now describe as war crimes or crimes against humanity were committed by all sides in WWII and its immediate aftermath, and it is important that an encyclopaedia such as Wikipedia includes balanced coverage of them all. I tend to take a chronological approach to all articles, identifying each section with a theme relevant to that time period.
- Joy: Everything should be covered; it's not uncommon that people only write about talking points or controversial aspects, even in good faith, but still losing sight of the fact that this is an encyclopedia. I'm also generally an advocate of chronological ordering, because it appears to help keep things inherently neutral and helps avoid losing track of context.
- Prioryman: I don't think there's a hard and fast rule about structuring articles. Chronological ordering works for articles such as Battle of Vukovar simply because such articles lend themselves to a narrative approach; events have a beginning, middle and end. Other topics are better approached in a more thematic fashion, as in the case of one of my non-Yugoslav articles, Street House Anglo-Saxon cemetery. Clearly, being comprehensive is a good thing and one should seek to tackle all sides of a subject, but I think one should never lose sight of the human element. I prefer to include brief eyewitness accounts and reactions in my articles, wherever possible - in the case of the Battle of Vukovar, I included eyewitness statements from both sides as well as observers to give an impression of what the events described in the article meant to those who experienced them first-hand.
- What kinds of sources do you recommend using?
- Peacemaker67: I recommend using university press titles as the basis for articles, and generally tend to steer clear of locally published material unless the author is recognised internationally. I do this to avoid (excuse the pun) partisan authors and even scholars from the former Yugoslavia. Some of the key scholars on the region and time period (and the university press that published them) are Walter Roberts (Duke), Matteo Milazzo (Johns Hopkins), Jozo Tomasevich (Stanford), Stevan K. Pavlowitch (Columbia), Marko Attila Hoare (Oxford), Sabrina Ramet (Indiana) and Tim Judah (Yale). I also have a good look at Google Scholar and request access to relevant scholarly articles through WP:REX.
- Joy: Those written by people without an axe to grind. No prejudice to the geographical origin - there is a modicum of reliable authors from the former Yugoslavia without one, much like there is a modicum of reliable authors in general that wrote about former Yugoslavia.
- Prioryman: Sourcing can be tricky when it comes to controversial recent history such as the Yugoslav wars. I recall that Peter Carrington once said that he had never met such terrible liars in his life as the people of the Balkans, which was rather unfairly sweeping, but it was certainly true that all sides in the conflict – including Western politicians – were systematically dishonest about what was going on. The problem is only exacerbated by the ideological overlay that some in the West brought to their analyses of the situation, from Norman Stone seeing the conflict as a battle against neo-communist tyranny to Noam Chomsky viewing it as a struggle against Western imperialism. Fortunately some journalists and academics have done some really good work in trying to ferret out the truth; I would echo what Peacemaker67 and Joy have said and endorse the authors they mention.
- Have you found it easy to obtain online sources? What about free images?
- Peacemaker67: I love Google Books and Google Scholar, although I have a pretty reasonable hard copy library at home and easy access to a comprehensive public library nearby. Images are a bit of a nightmare, there are heaps online but finding publication details is very difficult and I often end up having to use a non-free justification just to get a portrait for an infobox. The German Federal Archives [1] has some useful free images, and the US Holocaust Memorial Museum [2] is also good for free pictures.
- Prioryman: Google Books really is a lifesaver. If only I'd been able to use it while doing my university degree! (Sadly that was pre-Internet.) I use it in two ways: first as a direct source of information, and second as a finders' guide to enable me to track down sources in libraries. Images are something of a paradox, due to the copyright restraints Wikipedia imposes. A larger number of images are available for more recent topics, but they are also more likely to be in copyright. Older images are harder to find but easier to use. I've sometimes got around this problem by persuading photographers on Flickr to let Wikipedia use their images. One photographer kindly contributed several images that he took only 10 days after the end of the Battle of Vukovar, such as this one.
- Joy: There's an online source access program on the English Wikipedia that I keep thinking I should get myself into, but every year when they renew it and I go to have a look, I see that it involves some sort of an obstacle that deters me. Google Books is a poor man's library - it has a smattering of relevant local sources but they're not a really quality sample; I often fear I'm quoting a dubious author that just so happens to have said something relevant and it just so happens to be covered. That goes both for local and English-language sources. BTW on the topic of former Yugoslav images, have a look at the interesting development at WT:HRV#Copyright rules on photos in Yugoslavia.
- Have you experienced any difficulties accessing sources in languages other than English? If so, what approaches have you used to work around this issue?
- Peacemaker67: I have very scratchy German and Serbo-Croat and no Italian, so I generally use Google Translate (per Prioryman below) to identify a source I think might be useful, then ask other editors with the requisite language skills for a hand. NB: Google Translate of German generally results in gibberish... I have been very fortunate to have established a good collaborative arrangement with User:PRODUCER who has native language skills I lack, and can locate news articles and has an understanding of the reliability of local news sources. In some cases it is very hard to find material in English on the early lives of some biographical subjects except in the local lingo.
- Prioryman: Google Translate is your friend. To be honest, I try to use non-English sources fairly sparingly. If we're writing for an English-speaking audience, it makes sense to use English-language sources. I would hope, ideally, that people reading my articles would be sufficiently interested to want to go on and read the books and other sources that I've cited.
- Joy: The last few times I had such a problem it was Italian and Russian, I think. Both times {{better source}} was the most pertinent solution; I can envisage a contrary situation, but it's not really likely.
- Biases exist in many forms -- how have you dealt with biases in sources?
- Peacemaker67: I think that by using a wide range of reliable sources any tendency towards bias tends to be cancelled out. One of the reasons I tend to steer clear of "locally published but not internationally recognised" authors/scholars is because they are more likely to have been brought up in an educational and cultural system that presents "one side of the story" and that can make it difficult for them to overcome a tendency towards bias against "the Other". Some can be used with care, and many can be used for facts, but it is often necessary to attribute them inline when presenting their analysis.
- Prioryman: This is one of the most difficult issues to deal with in writing history. The first and most important thing is to recognise that all sources are biased in one way or another – not necesarily in an overtly propagandistic fashion, but quite often simply because of cultural and political assumptions that may be quite unconscious on the author's part (as Peacemaker67 rightly highlights). One also has to recognise where bias may come from. Is the source primary or secondary? Who is the author? What is the author's expertise? How does the source fit into the author's body of work? What is the purpose of the source? When was it published and in what context? Is there supporting evidence from other sources? Do the author's views fit into the mainstream of opinion? And so on.
- Joy: In addition to the things others have already mentioned, I'd like to point out a very common problem that we have in the topic area which is biased or just shoddy news reporting being used as references. Publications in former Yugoslavia that are reasonably respectable have been known to publish various kinds of problematic articles, particularly in their online editions. They can't and shouldn't be dismissed out of hand, but I do think it's important to invite everyone to click through and try and verify the reliability of each individual reference.
- How do you deal with with language barriers in both the subject and the sources about it (e.g. a non-English source)?
- Peacemaker67: I rely heavily on fellow editor(s) with the language skills. There are a lot of editors that advertise their language skills and will help you out if only you ask. In this respect I'm very lucky to have struck up a good working arrangement with PRODUCER.
- Prioryman: I try to rely on my own resources wherever possible, using tools such as Google Translate, but have also occasionally asked other editors to help out with clarifying issues.
- Joy: In case of Croatian people and sources, inherently. :) In practice I found that it's generally easy for myself to smell a rat, be it a Croatian, Serbian, or even an English source. If anything about the source looks suboptimal, tag it or lose it, because the bar on a global encyclopedia should already be at a level that excludes any such thing.
- What are the most common issues you strike when submitting articles on the Former Yugoslavia to formal review?
- Peacemaker67: Explaining the reliability of a given foreign language source (newspaper articles are almost always questioned), the paucity of information on the early lives of many of the biographical subjects, and achieving a balance between providing sufficient context for the subject and making the Background section too detailed and complex for the casual reader. Image copyright issues are also a perennial problem.
- Prioryman: Featured article candidate reviews can be very gruelling. The FAC for Battle of Vukovar was nearly as long as the article itself! Many of the issues raised at FAC are not actually all that substantive, for instance relatively trivial things such as making sure that quotations are properly referenced, formatting the references correctly and ensuring that any issues with image licenses are resolved. I'd advise submitters to pay close attention to such things before nominating an article for review, as it will save time later. Don't be too worried if reviewers come back with lots of issues. They are genuinely trying to help and will offer you advice if you get stuck with something.
- Joy: My experience with submitting articles for review is limited, but I have to say I concur that most of the time the problem is copyediting. Which isn't a bad thing - indeed the people who I've seen do (pre-)review copyedits have been largely very helpful. But I often felt we needed a more in-depth review. Maybe it's just me. Again, I haven't spent much time on this and I'm hardly in a position to judge others on something I don't do myself.
- Are there any other points you'd like to raise that we haven't covered in this interview, or parting advice that you'd like to offer?
- Peacemaker67: I think establishing a collaborative partnership with one or more like-minded editors in developing articles is something that is not seen often enough. Many editors "go it alone", but I have found that a lot of synergies can be achieved by cooperating with like-minded people. It is one of the inherent strengths of Wikipedia and one of the aspects of the encyclopaedia that I enjoy the most. I'd also like to encourage all MILHIST editors to get involved in reviewing, even if initially it is just looking at articles in Category:Unassessed military history articles. It helps you to get an understanding of the B class criteria and tightens up your own work. Lastly, if you're not enjoying yourself, you're not doing it right!
- Prioryman: Writing featured content isn't an easy process. It requires a lot of effort and commitment, and a willingness to accept constructive criticism. If there's one thing I'd recommend, be as self-critical of your own content as you can be. Review what you've written, not just once but several times, ask yourself if it's as clear as it should be and make sure you're familiar with the requirements for featured articles. Don't be afraid to ask others for advice. This is, after all, a collaborative project and editors who approach Wikipedia in that spirit will get the most out of it.
- Joy: In contrast with others, I'd like to invite people to help some of our articles of lower class. Add a reference to make an unreferenced section or a stub verifiable; describe a missing aspect of a story; summarize the article in its lead section properly; do some categorization. So many of the better articles will build a web of links, but the overall reader experience will leave much to be desired if they're just an oasis in a desert, so to speak.

About Me
I have been doing this for about 4 years, and taking pictures and modeling is more of a hobby for me than anything else. I actually enjoy my 9-5 as a DNA analyst, which is why I am not really looking to make it big ... but hey if it happens it happens. I am tall, thick and curvy, and am often called statuesque. I selectively take tfp or tfcd. But will always take paid assignments (who wants to turn down money). Even though I marked nude, I am extremley selective about what nude assignments choose. I am not interested in any fetish, erotic or full frontal nudity. Leave a note if you would like to work with me and I will be sure to get back to you.

Control (2007) DVD
4 Recommendations
miumina's recommendation
For his directorial debut, Anton Corbijn (famous photographer/video director for U2 and Depeche Mode, among others) gives an intimate look on Ian Curtis, Joy Division's frontman, who tragically died at age 23. Luckily Corbijn didn't based his movie entirely on Deborah Curtis' book - or else this would have been a very negative portrait - but asked his friends/relatives, including his belgian mistress, who never spoke about their relationship before. A true masterpiece, especially due to Sam Riley's stunning performance, "Control" will also be appreciated by non-Joy Division fans. One of my top 10 movies of 2007.
My Collections:
quitepeculiar's recommendation
A film of harrowing intensity, Control is about the life of Ian Curtis, Joy Division's lead singer and tortured soul. An amazing movie best seen on the wide screen, but you should be able to buy it on DVD soon, or even now if you luck out and find a place that'll sell it early, like I did. This is a must-watch for any fan of Joy Division and anyone interested in music history.
My Collections:
cath's recommendation
This could have been a mess, easily. In many ways, Ian Curtis' short life is a rock n roll cliche - a massively talented singer and songwriter commits suicide - and the sketchy details of his story has become legend among Joy Division fans and music fans. But it's not. And it's sad, but not depressing. Brilliantly acted by Sam Riley, directed by photographer/video director Anton Corbijn and shot entirely in black & white, Control has a depth and intimacy that's unexpected. Based on the biography written by Curtis' wife Deborah, it's an unsentimental yet loving look at one man's truly tragic end. No wonder he's a legend.

Such a great movie. R.i.p Ian curtis.

I've created a new report which I want all users to be able to see. Can I add it to the user portal?
This topic was created during version 5.3.
The latest version is 7.5.00101.

You could definitely create a link to it, but then you'd need to set everyone up as a Reporting User (and then make every other report non-public if you didn't want them to see anything else)
What does the report show, and how often would you expect the data in there to change? It's possible to automate reports, which I think you could have dump into a folder on the network and then link to that...
May 30, 2012 at 7:12 UTC
Its a report of open tickets by due date and priority.
Users are using the portal but then constantly asking where they are in the list.
May 30, 2012 at 7:28 UTC
are you sure you want to do this? That's a whole lot of worms in the can that you're opening ... :)
Would your report give names of the people who submitted the ticket? I could just see them bartering between each other to see who will be serviced first.
May 30, 2012 at 7:35 UTC
No, it just shows the ticket number, date logged, date due, priority and assigned techie!

Just a week after winning a Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album for 'Before the Dawn', Buju Banton gets convicted on cocaine charges.
The 37-year old whose given name is Mark Myrie was found guilty of conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute cocaine, possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking offense and using the wires to facilitate a drug trafficking offense. He was acquitted of attempted possession with the intent to distribute cocaine during a drug deal that was set un in December 2009.
Banton was set up by a DEA confidential informant who made a $50,000 commission after audio and videotaping the singer discussing drug deals.
His defense team had argued that Banton was simply a big mouth, trying to look like a big shot, when in reality he wasn't.
It took the jury 11 hours over two days to find the singer guilty.
It was the second trial for Banton on cocaine charges, the 1st last year ended up in a deadlocked jury.
Buju Banton is now faced with a minimum of a 15-year sentence.

New Zealand Pavlova
Recipe by Scarlett516
This dessert can be filled with any type of berry mix. To help ensure you have a successful pav, add all the ingredients very slowly. The cook time does not include cooling in the oven.
Top Review by Marysdottir
I'd misplaced my old recipe so used this one. It is at least as good as any Pavlova I've ever made and maybe better. Our German exchange student had never seen a Pavlova and was totally delighted by it. I had to make it again before he went home! Easy, quick and impressive. I top it with whipped cream enhanced with vanilla, icing sugar and a little instant vanilla pudding powder to stabilize the cream. The instant pudding powder is a trick I learned from a little old lady from Europe who does that to the cream in her cream puffs. It stops the cream from "weeping" so you can make this a little ahead of time without it deteriorating. Thanks for submitting this recipe!
See Discussion:3 Reviews
Ingredients Nutrition
- 4 egg whites
- 1 teaspoon cornflour (cornstarch)
- 1⁄4 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 3⁄4 cup caster sugar (superfine sugar or berry sugar)
- 1 teaspoon vinegar
- 1 pinch salt
Directions See How It's Made
- Preheat oven to 250°F.
- Using a clean and perfectly dry bowl, beat egg whites. When soft peaks form, add sugar gradually.
- Beat until very stiff, continue beating and add salt, then vinegar, and finally vanilla a few drops at a time.
- Beat in the cornstarch and keep beating until the mixture is really glossy and will stand when cut with a knife.
- Cover a baking pan with a sheet of parchment paper, tip the pavlova mix into the center of the pan and spread it into around about 8 - 9 inches across, leave the center slightly caved inches
- Place on rack in center of oven and cook for one hour, then turn oven off and leave until oven is cold.
- Do not open the oven at all until it is cold. If you are unsure, it's better to leave in too long than open early.
- This pavlova has a slightly crisp outside and is like marshmallow on the inside. You may dress it several ways, spread with a layer of thick whipped cream that has had 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla and 1 teaspoon of sugar added or pastry cream. This is covered with sliced fruit, whatever is in season - strawberries, raspberries, sliced (peeled) kiwifruit the choice is yours.

January Snowflake Series
I know not everyone is active on Google+ where I am posting these, so here are 10 of my favourite snowflakes photographed so far this year. There are some extremely beautiful images, from the small-but-stunning:
To the incredibly large:
Check out the gallery and read the descriptions for a little insight. I have many more of these still to put together and winter is far from over. It's going to be a great year! Check out Google+ if you can't wait for more, I post one every day. 🙂
Winter Landscapes
As much as I hope for the snow, we have had relatively little this year. Snowflakes aside, I have been trying to keep up with my landscape photography as well but the weather hasn't cooperated. Even still, I have been able to grab a few great shots so far this season:
The halo and Sun Dogs around the sun are caused by a cloud of ice crystals, and I found it near the Alliston area. I drove there hoping to find snow, but this was a much nicer surprise!
I set my sights on Bracebridge as a snow system was moving in, only for it to move off-course by the time I arrived. I chose my location wisely however – as a back-up I knew that Potts Falls would still be flowing and I was treated to quite the landscape.
Finally, I tried a different approach with this last image. I don't often create "pan-blur" images, but this is one that I liked. It is an extremely wide angle of view and I rotated the camera to blur the details and make it look painterly. Please tell me your thoughts!
I'll make a snowflake post soon too 🙂 For those eager to see my snowflake images, I am posting a new one every single day over at Google+, check it out!
Looking Back: The Best of 2011
I wanted to take a look at the best artwork I created in the past year, and I had forgotten how many amazing shots were taken so recently. As a photographer, I am constantly trying to achieve greater success and create better art… but 2011 might be hard to beat!
If I had to choose a favourite, I would have to say its "Barrie Under Fire":
Creating this image was equal parts luck, skill, and stupidity. I'm thrilled with the results and I hope for such amazing luck in the future.
The past year has seen my career really get started. Great success at art shows and exhibits, publications, three cover shots, my first book, teaching at Georgian College and so much more. It has been very hard work, and I'm pleased with where it has brought me.
I've put together an gallery of 30 images from 2011 for everyone to look at,
please leave a comment with your favourite!
Outdoor Photography 2012 Cover Shot
I am very excited to officially announce my cover shot and cover story in the latest issue of Outdoor Photography Canada!
The article is a detailed and easy to follow how-to on snowflake photography. I give away many of my secrets, and if you've been wanted to try to photograph some for yourself this winter, I highly recommend running out and picking up a copy!
Better yet, get a subscription. This is one of the best photographic magazines around right now, certainly the best in Canada and I am honoured to be a part of it.
I've also been hard at work on more snowflake photos! I post one daily to Google Plus, and here is my latest creation:
Winter certainly is keeping me busy! I want to do a look back on the year of 2011 here, which I'll be posting soon. The past year has been one of success and growth, and 2012 is already promising the same. I want to give a very big Thank You! to everyone who is supporting me and my endeavors, it wouldn't be possible without the encouragement I constantly receive.

For Parents
Common Sense Note
Parents need to know that Unfriended is a horror movie that appears to take place almost entirely via computer screen, using Skype webcam chats, Facebook messages, text messages, YouTube videos, Spotify music, etc. (the products'/services' real brand names are constantly shown and used). All of the main characters are teens; some of them drink or smoke pot on camera, and there are references to past substance use. Language is extremely strong, with many uses of "f--k" and much more. There's also plenty of sexual innuendo, references to sex acts, and flirting -- as well as a near-striptease (shown via webcam), though there's no actual nudity. Teens die in gory ways, with blood splatters and other shocking images (hand in a blender, impalement, hot curling iron shoved in someone's mouth, etc.), and teen suicide is shown (via a gunshot to the head) and discussed. Amid all of the scares and edgy content, the movie does raise relevant issues related to cyberbullying.
- Sexual Content
- Teens frequently talk about sex. Many have had sex or have experimented with each other. A near-striptease shown on a webcam. A sexy ad for "Free Live Cams." A shirtless male. Innuendo and flirting.
- Violence
- Moments of extreme gore; blood spatters. Teen suicide, via gunshot to the head, shown on a video. Dead teens. A hand in a blender. A hot curling iron shoved in a girl's mouth. A second gunshot to the head. Impaling on a huge knife. A video of a drunk teen girl who has defecated on herself.
- Language
- Extremely strong, constant language, both spoken and written: "F--k," "motherf----r," "s--t," "c--t," "p---y," "a--hole," "ass," "bitch," "d--k," "piss," "goddamn," "boobs."
- Social Behavior
- May drive home the fact that anonymous posting online can be just as hurtful and damaging as physical bullying.
- Consumerism
- Current digital brands are constantly shown and used on the computer screen: Google Chrome browser, Skype, Facebook, Spotify, YouTube, Instagram, etc. Snapchat is mentioned.
- Drugs / Tobacco / Alcohol
- Teens smoke pot, drink, and get drunk. References to and photos of teens having been drunk or high on previous occasions. Reference to "roofies."
- Age appropriate
- Not an issue
- Depends on your kid and your family
- Not appropriate for kids of the age most likely to want to see it

I had two crowns (molars) next to each other and one fits just fine, the other I can feel when I chew. Dr has ground it down 5 times and I still feel it when I chew. What else could be the problem?
New Crown is 3 Months Old and I Can Still Feel Tooth when I Chew.
Doctor Answers 3
Why would a crown be sensitive?
I agree with the other dentists that there could still be a chewing interference or a developing root canal problem. I have however encountered this problem before, fortunately only a few times. It could be that the cementation process is not sealing the tooth properly and the tooth is feeling the micromovements of the crown. Perhaps too the crown margins are too deep and the gum area is feeling this.
When I have tried bite adjustment and the tooth tests normal for nerve health, I have removed the crown, placed a temporary crown for a period of time (2 to 3 months) to see if the symptoms subside. If they do I will remake the crown. If all else fails, it might be worth trying this approach.
Sensetivity folowing a new Crown
If your crown is only sensitive for an instant after chewing there might still be interferences with your chewing cycles. If that is the case have the dentist check for chewing interference and adjust accordingly. If you are having discomfort or pain that appears for no reason or may persist for longer than a few seconds after drinking or eating then there is a risk that your nerve is dying. If that is the case you will likely need a root canal. On the average 10-15% of teeth that get crowns may need a root canal. This does not mean that the dentist did anything wrong. This could occur even on a tooth that did not have any discomfort prior to the crown treatment.
Sensitive Crown
If you ONLY feel the tooth when you chew, it more than likely still has a spot that needs adjusting, perhaps a spot is interfering when you grind or move your jaw in exagerated movements. If the tooth is hyper sensitive to cold or even aches when you're not chewing then you may in fact have a tooth that needs a root canal, especially if the bite feels comfortable after the bite adjustment and then feels "high" again or uncomfortable to chewing a few days later.
Good luck!

The future of the world will undoubtedly contain upgraded version of all transportation technology currently used and available plus some that are highly inconvenient and nonexistent. Such technologies will come with future varieties of cars, more aerodynamic trucks, faster trains, all around better air travel, and eventually, teleportation. These technologies will bring people from all parts of the world much closer together, a key factor in economic growth and the future of humanity's success.
The Wright Brothers
Orville (1871-1948) and Wilbur (1867-1912) Wright, two American bicycle manufacturers, were generally credited with the fist manned flight of a heavier-than-air aircraft with an engine. They flew their creation, Wright Flyer I, at Kill Devil Hills, four miles south of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, on December 17, 1903; five years before the first car was produced. Orville piloted the odd, backwards-looking aircraft with Wilbur closely trailing him on foot as he flew Wright Flyer over one hundred and twenty feet; the beginning of modern air travel.
The Airplane and War
The very first flying vehicle that was used to execute military intentions was the Wright Military Flyer, again connected to the Wright brothers. During World War I and World War II, military aircraft was extensively used for reconnaissance and targeted bombing. Ever since World War I, military aircraft have been used in excess in every single war the United States has fought in. It is incredibly uncomplicated to perceive why any such military would desire to use flying vehicles for any war situation.
Airplanes: 2020
In a mere ten years, airplanes will have increased in performance in a simple variety of ideas. The energy-wasting commercial airplanes that humanity have come to known over the past fifty years will be slowly replaced with increasingly energy-efficient models by Boeing and other airplane manufacturers. These fuels will be hybrids of typical jet fuels and algae-based fuels. Because of these cheaper fuels, the cost of an airline ticket will stay at current rates without inflation from economy.
Speed will only slightly increase in the next decade. Currently, the average commercial airliner travels at around five hundred miles per hour; it may possibly increase by as little as fifty miles per hour.
Airplanes: 2040
In thirty years, the modern airplane will have semi-drastically transformed into faster, leaner, cheaper, safer, greener, and blended-wing designed aircraft. Few designs will utilize a blended-wing stature but for those that do, expect a much cheaper airline ticket than today due to the fact that over six hundred people can fit on one trip. Airplane manufacturers are even designing these types of aircraft currently. Boeing has dubbed their concept Honeydew.
Faster commercial models will have the ability to achieve speeds of over Mach 2. No commercial plane has reached these speeds since the Aerospatiale-British Aerospace Corporation (BAC) Concorde and Tupolev Tu-144 era. This will become possible as the problem of sonic boom is solved. Only a few business and private jets will take advantage of scram-jets, allowing them to travel hypersonically in the upper atmosphere at over four thousand miles per hour.
Airplanes: 2060
In fifty long years, during the decade of the 2060s and beyond, most commercial aircraft will obtain blended-wing designs and have the ability to reach speeds of over Mach 12, or roughly nine thousand miles per hour. This would make a flight from Los Angeles to Paris require just one and a half hours of flight time. The reason for this existential speed is because of aircraft flight ceilings of the year 2060. They will travel at the very edge of the atmosphere where there is absolutely no air resistance to be found using super-velocity scram-jet engines. The fastest scramjets at Mach 25 can travel in space.
Airplanes of the future will be zero-polluting and require little to no maintenance. They will be one of the safest forms of travel due to technological and safety advancements. An average first class ticket from San Francisco to New York City will cost around five hundred dollars.
