What Is a Root and What Is a Root Canal?Every tooth has a portion that you can see called the crown and every tooth has a portion that holds the tooth in the bone called a root. In order to generate bite forces to chew, the roots have to be healthy not only from the outside but also from the inside. Depending on how much bite force is needed, determines how many roots a tooth may have or the diameter could be larger as well. In other words, the canine tooth has a long and wide root, while most molars have generally three roots in the upper jaw and two roots in the lower jaw.
What Happens During the Root Canal?The inside of a root contains a canal which can branch into multiple canals. Below, we break down each of the important steps involved in the root canal.
What Is an Apicoectomy and Why Do I Need One?Once a root canal has been completed, sometimes an infection may persist or reoccur. The reason for this is that at the tip of the root which is called the Apex, the main canal breaks apart into multiple smaller canals that can only be seen with a microscope. These canals are similar to the roots of a tree. Since the Endodontist cannot get into these canals, if there is bacteria in them, then the root and surrounding bone can get re-infected causing pain, swelling and even pus.
How Is an Apicoectomy Performed?In order to get rid of this infection, the Apex (tip) of the root has to be cut out, removed and the surrounding bone cleaned. Once this is done, a special plug will be placed into the main root canal to seal it called a "Retro-fill". This process is called an Apicoectomy and usually takes about 30–60 minutes.

DOAG conference 2007 and my presentation
On Wednesday and Thursday I have been at the DOAG conference (by German Oracle User Group) in N�rnberg. It was my first time visiting this conference. With more than 2.000 participants, 16 tracks and more than 200 sessions it's not quite as big as Oracle Open world last week in San Francisco. But the food was much better! For me it makes a difference if you get your lunch on a real plate with metal cutlery and not a box with a sandwich and plastic cutlery 🙂 But that's America… even if it was a green event 😉
The DOAG conference was a great opportunity to get together with some friends Continue reading
Presenting at the DOAG conference 2007
Just got a confirmation mail from DOAG (German Oracle User Group) that they approved my Oracle APEX presentation "Ein Blick unter die Motorhaube von Oracle APEX" (Oracle APEX under the hood) for there next annual conference in November in N�rnberg. My presentation slot is on Thursday between 15:00 and 15:45. In the conference schedule I have seen that Dietmar Aust's presentation has also been confirmed. Will be nice to hang out with him again!
But before that, a lot of work has to be done. Until 17th September they want to have a 4-page summary of my presentation which will be included into the conference printouts and until 7th November the complete presentation material…
Maybe this time I should start earlier, so that I don't have to work the nights before the deadline… 🙂
My first public Oracle APEX presentation
Today I had my first public presentation about an Oracle APEX topic. I was doing a presentation about "The Power of the Oracle APEX Repository" at the SIG (Special Interest Group) workshop of DOAG in Kassel, Germany.
The motto of the workshop was "Oracle APEX for Advanced" and because of the overwhelming interest by presenters and participants, DOAG organized a XXL workshop with 8 presentations! So it was a full day packed with lot of interesting stuff.
And it looks like that people are really interested in some more advanced Oracle APEX topics, because 95 people attended the very well organized meeting!
DOAG is hosting a SIG meeting about "APEX for advanced"
The German Oracle Usergroup (DOAG) is hosting a SIG meeting with the topic "APEX for advanced". It will be held on the 31. May in Kassel. See the agenda for more details.
*drum roll*
I will do my first APEX presentation here!
*drum roll*
The title of the presentation will be
"The power of the APEX Repository"
There are a lot of other interesting presentations, maybe I see you there!
Some side note to a person I know: Hopefully I don't wait as long as you did to put the presentation together 🙂

I try to show my students that they are getting a skewed point of view in the mass media that differs significantly from historically documented experiences and studies of the super natural. I moved them to a more neutral standpoint—a method in the humanities called methodological agnosticism where you stand in the middle to get a comprehensive view of events and ideas. Then they studied more radical, experience-centred approaches.

I've been a student of success principles for the past 15 years and I've learned a great deal about strategies and approaches one can take to transform any area of their life.
Workshop topics can be customized for your group's or conference's need. To explore the possibility of developing a game changing workshop for you and your team/group, please fill out the contact form below.
Here are some of Christopher's most popular workshops:
There is a strong link between effective emotional self-care and your personal job satisfaction, maintaining good health and well-being, and being effective in your daily work. The challenge with a good deal of emotional self-care workshops is that while they do talk about ways of managing stress, they never get to the root cause of the problem, and thus the stress is only temporarily diminished after the workshop is over. In the "Taking Care of You" workshop, participants will learn the real causes of emotional stress and receive tools that will give them much more confidence and control of their daily work and life.
Developing good, healthy, harmonious relationships is important for every aspect of a person's life. Participants will gain a clear understanding of their ways of being and doing that are standing in the way of them creating the relationships they strongly desire. Learn powerful attraction techniques that will improve harmony with others, and approaches that will bring about healing in relationships perceived to be a challenge.
This experiential workshop is designed to support you in designing a life that you would absolutely love living. In this workshop the participants will identify what they desire and discuss ways of removing obstacles to achieving it; learn to create a state of allowing more of what they want into their own lives; and use the powers of intention, focus, specificity and belief to propel themselves to a whole new level of being.
There is so much in life that appears to hold us back and all of it, surprisingly enough, is self-induced. Learn how to eliminate those things in life that no longer serve you, release self-imposed barriers and beliefs and give yourself permission to live life at a completely different level.
In this day and age of tight budgets, limited resources and increased demands the pressure on program and management staff to do more with less has never been greater. Learn essential techniques that will enable you to work at your very best while increasing your level of personal satisfaction and fulfillment in your current role. In this workshop, the participants will learn to increase their awareness of internal challenges that are impeding their performance and well being; develop effective ways of working and being that will help increase their feelings of self control, while reducing stress and increasing productivity; and, identify and reconnect to their inner core and come at any new challenge from a position of great internal strength.
We are spiritual beings having a physical experience, and our work is what we do but not who we are.
Since we are Spirit, it is vitally important to understand how to apply spiritual laws and principles, which are the true determinants of one's success and satisfaction at work. This powerful workshop will teach you how to look at your work through a spiritual lens and give you highly effective tools to use to improve your performance, focus, relationships and outlook in your particular role.

Lahore, Lahore aye.
By Pran Nevile
No city in the subcontinent can boast of a more stirring or more turbulent history, or a stronger vitality, than Lahore—a city ruled by Hindu kings, Mughal emperors, Sikh monarchs, British sovereigns. Scholars, historians, and travelers passing through Lahore were enchanted by its majesty and grandeur. In the heyday of its glory as the capital of the Mughals, the city rose from semi-obscurity to eminence. It became the city of historical monuments and gardens. Lahore finds mention in John Milton's classic, Paradise Lost. Thomas Moore in his celebrated Lalla Rookh describes the glittering life and pageantry of the palaces, domes, and gilded minarets of Lahore. Rudyard Kipling, the Nobel laureate who was raised in Lahore, immortalized the city in his writings.
The British rulers took active steps to safeguard and preserve old monuments and buildings of national interest and historical value. I remember that many new residential areas were developed in different parts of the city: Krishan Nagar, Sant Nagar, Ram Nagar, Ram Gullies, Krishna Gullies, Gowalmandi, Gandhi Square, Nisbet Road, Mozang and Quila Gujjar Singh. The most novel experiment was the construction of a modern township, Model Town, about six miles from the center, with spacious bungalow-type houses owned by the upper middle class of all communities.

A friend of mine (Sheri Herndon) just sent me an email which I replied to. My response felt like it should be capture (and probably expanded or built on more in the future) for a glimpse of why we're building Ceptr. In fairness, she knows a lot of what I write in my answer, but it was in part to share the purpose behind Ceptr to the others copied on the message who I may meet tomorrow at the Platform Cooperativism Conference..
From Sheri:
Imagine an intelligent alien species with such powerful skills of telepathy that they have no concept of language. They experience instantaneous knowledge of each other's mental and emotional states just by shifting their attention to another of their kind. How would this alien perceive a meeting session of Parliament, Congress or the United Nations?
When I graduated from business school I realized how poorly I'd been applying the important profit-producing principles of business to all areas of my life. I vowed to change that once and for all. So I'm going to start by maximizing the return on investment in my daughter.
I quickly ruled out some of the more obvious business models regarding her sexuality. Although there's certainly market demand, she's just too young -- I need my ROI much sooner than she will reach sexual maturity, and I have no talent for pornography. Others have found some innovative models, like auctioning your virginity on eBay, but surely that market will be saturated by the time she's of legal age.
The reason I blog is because there are not many people writing about the topic I'd most like to engage people in. Specifically, it is about currencies as social DNA.
You see, corporations, institutions, governments, and nations are in fact living organisms. This is not a lofty metaphor, but literal truth.
They have a survival instinct to self-perpetuate, they breed new corporations and institutions, and even as the cells within them are replaced, their fundamental pattern continues. And we are their cells.
[Reposted from New Currency Frontiers]
I wrote these responses in the comments thread on this article about The End of Social Movements. There are some currency issues in them that I want to capture for later deeper discussion, so I'm reposting here so I'll know where to find them.
Money and Power Pathologies
Will – I think you make a good point that they're ability to fool us, does not make them the same thing in essence. And I even like your lunch money metaphor.
So consider this: We start making alternative lunch money. It is only accepted at our own food carts, and participation is completely voluntary. The corporate thieves/bullies/thugs/raiders can only use it for lunch in that community and there's only so much lunch they can eat.
However, if they can't use it to buy up real estate, bribe politicians, make speculative investments, build their empire of power an anonymity, then it isn't worth their time and energy to steal.
I originally posted this to the Complementary Currencies discussion group on Skype in response to a question from Christoph Hensch. But it probably merits inclusion here.
Christoph, I believe we are in the lazy habit of thinking that the flow of the currency itself is the one that matters instead of the actual flow of goods, services, resources, knowledge or participation which flows COUNTER to an exchange currency.
Those real-world currents shaped and enabled by currencies are what make them so valuable and powerful.
I just posted a reply to a post about currencies as the DNA of social organisms on New Currency Frontiers Blog and wanted to cross-post it here.
Many people seem to struggle with the "social organism" metaphor. I think that might be a function of two things: 1) loose boundaries which make it difficult to see social level organisms in the usual way we see "things" and 2) wanting to be individually more important than we are.

An engineer at General Motors who is at the center of accusations that the company covered up a deadly defect appeared distraught during lengthy questioning by congressional investigators, according to people familiar with the session.
The engineer, Raymond DeGiorgio, who was suspended last month with pay, has not spoken publicly since G.M. acknowledged the ignition switch defect in February and began recalling millions of Chevrolet Cobalts, Saturn Ions and other models. The automaker has linked the defect to 13 deaths, a number that federal regulators said was expected to grow.
A House staff aide said that Mr. DeGiorgio, 61, appeared "genuinely upset" about the deaths and about his inability to connect the ignition switch problem with the failure of air bags to deploy.
The defective switch could cause engines to shut down, disabling electrical systems and things like power steering, power brakes and air bags. Mr. DeGiorgio, who has worked at G.M. since 1991, was a lead design engineer for ignition switches for a variety of models.
"He came across as if he was just overburdened and just missed it," said the staff member, who was not authorized to speak publicly about the investigation. Mr. DeGiorgio's comments, during 10 hours of questioning on May 19, offer a glimpse into how the switch was secretly changed eight years ago, but no recall was issued for vehicles equipped with the defective switches until this February.
Mr. DeGiorgio did not give any information that indicated that the new chief executive of G.M., Mary T. Barra, knew anything about the problem before she took her job early this year. He did not seek to implicate any of his superiors, the people familiar with the questioning said.
G.M.'s Ignition Problem: Who Knew What When
Events leading to G.M.'s recall of 2.6 million cars because of a defective ignition switch.
Mr. DeGiorgio was asked about statements he made during a deposition last year in a wrongful-death lawsuit brought against G.M. Mr. DeGiorgio told the congressional investigators that when giving that deposition, he had forgotten his decision to order a major upgrade in the switch, according to the people familiar with the session.
Mr. DeGiorgio signed off on changes in the ignition switch in April 2006, authorizing a supplier, Delphi, to make improvements to the switch at its manufacturing plant in Mexico. But he denied it in the deposition last year in the lawsuit, which was brought by the family of a Georgia woman who died in a 2005 Chevrolet Cobalt.
"I don't ever recall authorizing such a change," he said in a sworn deposition in April 2013.
Under questioning by the House investigators, Mr. DeGiorgio said he had forgotten about the fix — which involved a stronger spring in the mechanism that determines how much force is needed to turn the key — because it was one of a package of changes, and because it was seven years before the deposition, according to the people familiar with the questioning.
Mr. DeGiorgio was not sworn in, but speaking untruthfully in such settings can carry substantial legal penalties, according to experts.
The change he approved covered two items, the spring and a printed circuit board, known as a P.C.B., that was causing some Saturn Ion models not to start, according to one person involved in the case.
"He definitely said he was more focused on electrical problems" said the staff member, who described Mr. DeGiorgio as "very emotional at times."
Mr. DeGiorgio's actions might not have come to light without an independent investigation by a Florida engineer, Mark Hood, who was retained by the family of the Georgia woman, Brooke Melton.
Mr. Hood discovered that switches in Cobalts made after 2006 were significantly stronger than ones found in pre-2006 cars.
He was pressed on that point by Lance Cooper, the lawyer for the Melton family during the deposition last year.
"So if any such change is made, it was made without your knowledge and authorization?" Mr. Cooper asked.
"That is correct," Mr. DeGiorgio said.
The Meltons have asked that their case against G.M. be reopened on the grounds that Mr. DeGiorgio possibly committed perjury, because it appeared that he gave a false answer in the deposition last year.
Ms. Barra, the chief executive, acknowledged under questioning by lawmakers on April 2 that Mr. DeGiorgio might have lied during his deposition.
"You know he lied under oath," said Senator Claire McCaskill, Democrat of Missouri.
"The data that's been put in front of me indicates that, but I'm waiting for the full investigation," Ms. Barra said.
Eight days later, on April 10, Mr. DeGiorgio was suspended with pay by G.M. along with his supervisor, Gary Altman. House investigators have also interviewed Mr. Altman. Mr. DeGiorgio has not returned telephone calls to his home in a rural suburb of Detroit.
Interviews by House investigators are often a preliminary step to calling witnesses for a public hearing, although the House committee undertaking the investigation, Energy and Commerce, has not scheduled a hearing.

approximately 5,600 model-year 2018 ford expedition suvs built at the kentucky truck plant between march 14 and april 12, 2018; model-year 2018 f-150 pickup trucks built at the dearborn truck plant in michigan between march 14 and april 24, 2018, as well as at the kansas city assembly plant in missouri between march 20 and april 17, 2018; and model-year 2018 lincoln navigator suvs built at the kentucky truck plant between feb. 20 and may 6, 2018; all vehicles are equipped with a 3.5-liter v-6 used engine
the problem: the high-pressure fuel pump assembly may have inadequate welds between the pump housing and its mounting flange, causing the welds of the vehicles to be susceptible to high-cycle fatigue fractures that could cause the fuel pump to move relative to its mounting flange, resulting in eventual loss of the sealing integrity of the cam cover or the fuel lines and an oil or fuel leak, increasing the risk of fire.
ford said it is not aware of any fires, accidents or injuries related to the issue.
the fix: dealers will replace the high-pressure fuel pump, high-pressure fuel discharge tube, and high-pressure pump and discharge tube mounting bolts for free.
what owners should do: lincoln automaker ford did not immediately announce an owner-notification schedule. owners can call the automaker at 866-436-7332, the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236 or visit its website to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.

Treading London's hipster trail
Published May 1st, 2015
Read Article
The dictionary defines 'hipster' as "a person who follows the latest trends and fashions, especially those regarded as being outside the cultural mainstream". Sound familiar?
If the rise of Alexa Chung has taught us anything, it's that London is the home of the hippest of the hipsters. But where are the city's hottest hipsters hanging out? Let's stop this crazy alliteration and find out:
So I'll admit it. Most people of the non-hipster variety would probably term me as one. And they're probably right. I instagram my breakfast on a regular basis. I drink cider. I dance to indie music. I like beards. I blog for a living. Yes, I'm a living cliché.

Those pesky but valuable leftovers
With Thanksgiving two weeks away, local restaurants are gearing up for a busy holiday season.
Whether you plan on eating a traditional Thanksgiving feast with friends and family or dining out, chances are you'll find yourself with more leftover turkey and trimmings than you know what to do with.
We asked Bradley LeBarre from the Galway Hooker Irish Pub in Cornelius for some creative tips incorporating the Thanksgiving bird of choice into meals at home.
While a traditional turkey sandwich may seem boring, LeBarre, a Concord resident who has worked in country clubs and restaurants all over the Charlotte area, said to spice it up by topping it with a cranberry mayo and leftover stuffing.
Use dinner rolls to make a slider, which works well as an appetizer.
Or, heat the sandwich using a press and turn it into a panini.
LeBarre also suggests throwing the leftover turkey into a frittata topped with cheese for a good brunch item, or mixing the meat into a soup with chopped vegetables and egg noodles and turning leftover bread into croutons.
"The sky's the limit," said LeBarre. "It's all based on the imagination."

The forgotten years
Gideon Haigh is one of the most accomplished contemporary writers on cricket and in this outstanding work he is also revealed as a dedicated and meticulous researcher. The Summer Game examines Australian cricket in the 1950s and 1960s - a period often dismissed by critics as being of little consequence in the overall scheme of things. Nothing could be further from the truth, as Haigh points out in a book brimful of fine writing, thoughtful analysis and revealing interviews. And from the clarity of their reflections and reminiscences, the host of luminaries who spoke with Haigh were plainly keen to ensure their era was not consigned to obscurity.
The bookends for the work are the visits to South Africa by Lindsay Hassett's team in 1949-50 - the first tour of the post-Bradman era - and by Bill Lawry's exhausted and disillusioned party 20 years later, the last tour before the birth of the tumultuous Chappell years, and ultimately, revolution. Hassett's team triumphed 4-0 and Lawry's was defeated 0-4.
While the dullness of much Anglo-Australian cricket in the 1950s alienated the romantics, it was nevertheless a period of significant development for Australian cricket, with the first official tours of the West Indies, India and Pakistan. Invariably these were challenging undertakings for often isolated and unworldly souls and Haigh examines the exploration of new horizons by teams led by Ian Johnson and Richie Benaud. Indeed, ten men captained Australia in this 20-year period, and along with a host of champions, their hopes and aspirations and rich abilities are documented and discussed against a backdrop of a post-war Australia still largely beholden to Mother England.
Haigh is as much social anthropologist as cricket historian and he traces the game's often uncertain progress while examining defining events beyond the boundary. The Summer Game deals in forensic detail with the high dramas that surrounded the throwing and dragging sagas, and examines the decisive role played by Don Bradman as a visionary and interventionist administrator on the world stage. It also provides a wonderful insight into the renaissance summer of 1960-61, when Benaud and Frank Worrell pooled their resources to give the kiss of life to Test match cricket.
In his review in Wisden Cricket Monthly the distinguished writer Matthew Engel wrote: "Outstanding... This book ought to change the writing of cricket history by setting new standards... The effect is evocative and powerful. Buy his book. It's brilliant." Hear, Hear!
From the book
The 1960-61 West Indians ran hot and cold as they traversed Australia west to east... Yet, despite their inconsistency, there was a breezy self-possession to them that precursors had lacked. The most palpable change was in leadership. After years of campaigning, culminating in a deafening series of articles by C.L.R. James in the Nation (official organ of Dr Eric Williams' ruling People's National Movement of Trinidad), thirty-six-year-old Frank Worrell had belatedly become the first black man to lead the West Indies on tour. Worrell was educated, urbane, a model of the respectable Barbadian middle class, a Scout as a young man, a Mason when older, a Manchester University graduate with honours in social sciences. In the dressing room, he'd long been the coolest head. At Lord's in 1957, Alf Valentine had discovered Worrell bent over a book, reading intently. "You know you're next in, Frank," he said. "Just studying, Alf," Worrell replied. "My finals are coming up."

Enjoying the art of cooking
One of my favourite hobby is cooking. My mother is a great cook. I am a decent cook(bordering on excellent I might add), when I am in the mood. I am mostly a self taught cook though have learnt lots of tricks and tips from my mother, lots of chefs(on the T.V) and numerous books. I would like share some of the recipes that I test from cookbooks, magazines, newspaper clippings and of course web sites.
Mung Dhal Uppama
This has become one of my favorite food item. Learn the recipe from my mother.
- 1 cup split whole mung dhal(green gram)
- A small piece of ginger
- 1 medium sized onion
- few sprigs of curry leaves
- Mustard seeds
- Urad dhal
- Channa dhal
- two dried red chillies
- two green chillies
- Soak the split green gram dhal for one hour.
- Add the ginger, salt and grind into a smooth batter
- Leave it aside for 30 mins and add 1 teaspoon of cooking soda.
- Boil water and steam the batter using a idly plate
- Steam it for 10 mins till the idly is well done.
- Cool it and break the idly into bread like crumbs

text: Leading Diesel Engine Manufacturer Perkins Selects solidThinking Inspired for Industrial Engine Structural Optimisation solidThinking's 3D conceptual design software reduces engine component design time TROY, Mich. – Sept. 27, 2011 – Altair Engineering, Inc., a leading global provider of technology and services that empower client innovation and decision-making, announced today that Global engine manufacturer Perkins has deployed solidThinking Inspired to optimise the design of industrial engine components. "Perkins has a reputation for delivering durable, long lasting industrial engines," said Martin Dirker, Engineering Team Leader at Perkins Engines. "We were looking for an affordable tool that could help us optimise the design of our engine brackets to meet stiffness targets and reduce overall design iteration time." In 2011, Perkins invested in solidThinking Inspired 3D conceptual design software to help visualise, explore and evaluate designs in less time. "solidThinking Inspired has helped us optimise bracket designs to meet stiffness targets and therefore improve the overall system stiffness by more than 10 times," said Martin Dirker. "We have also significantly reduced the design iteration time. Whereas we were previously taking up to two weeks to optimise a single component, we are now able to do this in just an afternoon. This means that we have been able to reduce the overall design time from six weeks to just over four weeks." The ability to use Pro Engineer geometry directly, together with the ease of learning the software, were key drivers for Perkins's selection of solidThinking Inspired. "We know about Altair and are very enthusiastic about solidThinking," added Martin Dirker. "It's easy to use, delivers results quickly and has given us the confidence to meet our targets. solidThinking Inspired has impressed us and is the most effective structural optimisation tool I've worked with." "We are very pleased to see Perkins Engines use our tools to enhance their development processes," said David Mason, Managing Director, Altair Engineering, U.K. "solidThinking is the industrial design software of choice that is redefining the way CAD models are visualised and optimised. It accelerates the overall design time and offers customers a cost-effective solution. I expect to see more manufacturing companies in the U.K. turning to solidThinking Inspired thanks to the business benefits the product offers." About Perkins For 75 years Perkins has led the field in the design and manufacture of high-performance diesel and gas engines. Their engines power more than 5,000 different applications from over 1,000 major equipment manufacturers in the construction, power generation, materials handling, agricultural and general industrial markets. Perkins is a global manufacturing company, with plants in the United Kingdom, USA, China and Brazil.

Love makes fools of us all
I love a good shaggy dog. Yeah, it is a sick attribute. Shaggy Dogs are normally long winded so this guy seldom qualifies. His offerings tend to brief and dramatic. This one was thoughtfully longer with his normal profane. It was one of those hand history based rants that can leave one scratching their head. Then the comments added to the Shaggy Dog in serial format. Internet shaggy dogs are a different breed with often vituperous outcomes. Considering our source, little surprise.
It was a ring play hand history and few of those are around – compliments of SDNY attorneys. So it was nice to see one. A hand history is a single sided look. We seldom see the why of the other side. Reads gone wrong; mental fart; lack of understanding; just bad play; and so on. We are left guessing to some degree. But, kudos to the resident ranter for talking about poker in these sad times. It also managed to really liven up his comment thread.
In another area, I took a looked at the Macau High Stakes Challenge over on PokerNews. It was one of those high roller shootouts that have become popular. The winner took home $6,465,746 — which could make him a Obama taxing target. I won't bore you repeating hand histories from that one — which played turbo fashion. Certainly points to the differing mindset between ring and tournament. It's a fun read in a masochistic vein. Take a look and laugh or commiserate.
It didn't have open comments though so the Shaggy Dog just sat around scratching fleas waiting for the punch line. Damn I miss poker!
I thought I'd add a true shaggy dog favorite: (shorter and different version from the Internet. mine was much longer)
A marine biologist developed a race of genetically engineered dolphins that could live forever if they were fed a steady diet of seagulls.
One day, his supply of the birds ran out so he had to go out and trap some more. On the way back, he spied two lions asleep on the road. Afraid to wake them, he gingerly stepped over them.
Immediately, he was arrested and charged with transporting gulls across sedate lions for immortal porpoises.

At Home Care Assistance of Milwaukee, we work with amazing seniors who have shown us that as we age, we gain knowledge, wisdom, and a better understanding of the world around us. It is through these unique and treasured life experiences that we are able to create a narrative of beautiful and inspirational stories. Story Corps and National Public Radio have teamed up to share these cherished stories with the rest of the world.
Story Corps travels the country recording the stories of everyday people in an attempt to break boundaries like religion, age and gender so we can all be reminded of our shared humanity. Each conversation is recorded on a free CD to share and is preserved at the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress. Millions can also listen to the Story Corps' weekly broadcasts on NPR's Morning Edition. So what story do you want to tell?
Perhaps you want to remember a loved one or maybe you want to discuss love and war. Whatever the anecdote is that you or an aging loved one want to share with the world,it is Story Corps' mission to help make sure you are heard. Not sure where to start? Ask a friend, family member or even a caregiver to help you prepare for your recording or interview. Here are a few of Story Corps' suggested questions to help get you or an aging loved one thinking:
- Who has been the most important person in your life? Can you tell me about him or her?
- What was the happiest moment of your life? The saddest?
- Who has been the biggest influence on your life? What lessons did that person teach you?
Interested story-tellers can either record their narrative from home using a step-by-step guide online, catch the Story Corps' traveling studio when it is in a city near them, or visit one of their three permanent locations in San Francisco, Chicago or Atlanta.
As a Milwaukee home care agency, we couldn't be more supportive of such a great program and strongly support the initiatives set out by Story Corps. With so many amazing senior clients, we encourage them all to share their touching stories as we know they have the ability to touch the lives of others throughout the nation.

G'day every one, rain or shine fishing is always fine. Well this weather hasn't really given much motivation, but some keen anglers have still headed out. Reports on the prawn front are that they are very patchy & not even really enough for a feed. Lets hope the rain clears, so they can start schooling up through the channels. Shouldn't be too much longer I will start looking towards the end of the week around Lamb island, salt works, Karragarra, Russell island & I will let u know. Crabs have been caught in large numbers & the rain never affects a few pots being put out. They have been from the mouth of Pimpama, near Wallys Gutter, through to Cabbage Tree Point, just keep them in about 3to 5m deep.
Whiting are still about, any of the sand banks near the pin on the top of the tide, look for the cleanest water possible fish 2 to 3hour of the run out tide. A little trick for bait is with prawns cut in thin strips then pink food dye, also try squid cut into very thin strips then pink food dye i always cut my bait then dye it the night before i go fishing you can thank me later. A few boys have been catching snapper real early morning in the bay using lures & unweighted pillies. Harry Atkinson is the standout, fish 20 feet deep at night by early morning drop back 60 feet. Peel island not far behind the north eastern side in about 24 feet deep all have caught fish 45 to 60 cm. Potts point and southern bay island are fishing a lot smaller fish 30 to 40 cm.
I have also heard of a few reports of King fish, and Trevally near Dunich & the pylons & some schools of tailor from Dunich to Amity a lot of small fish in the 25 to 30 cm but you should be able to catch a feed though. Tuna have also been spotted near Rous channel. Mangrove Jack and Jewies would be a likely bet for the pin in the last hour of the run in, the first hour or two of the run out try drifting. Be aware of your environment when on the water as there is still a lot of debris coming out of the rivers & creeks, drive to suit the conditions. I hope u can get out over the week & catch some fish, from the crew at VP bait & Tackle, Frandon, Jo & Justin.

How much space do you need?
Our ideal stage size for the 7 piece is 10" x 20", but we can accommodate depending on the line up and given space. Take a look at our mocked up stage plan…
How is it best to time things?
We are normally the main entertainment for the evening, and in our opinion, two sets is always better than three shorter ones, and a short break of half an hour in-between.
Regardless, we are to entirely happy to work around your requirements.
Can I pick the bands playlist?
You're more than welcome to discuss the playlist with Jimmy, and of course we wouldn't want to play anything you didn't like, however the choice of songs to play at your event will have been very carefully selected. Over the years of playing at weddings, private parties and corporate events a filtering process occurs. Songs are tried and tested, reactions gauged and feedback received, whether that be verbally or from the keen eye of the seasoned professional band leader, any future song choices will be based on their merit and success at creating the right ambience and ensuring a full dance floor.
Where will you travel to?
The band are all seasoned travellers and dependent on availability, will travel anywhere in the world.
Can I see you play live?
We often play in central London at public access venues.
Will you learn our special song?
We would be happy to, perhaps a bespoke arrangement if so desired.
Is the video on your website a true reflection of the band?
Yes, the line up, instruments, stands, and overall sound and look of the band is exactly what you should expect.
How do I book you?
Please contact Jimmy:
email: [email protected]
tel: +44 (0) 7970 412 147
Are you able to DJ in between sets?
Yes, just give us a laptop or tablet and we'll plug it into our PA for you.
Can we make DJ requests in advance to my event?
Probably best to include any song requests on a playlist that we can put through our PA.
Can we use your sound system for speeches?
Yes, of course we have radio mics specifically available for you on request.
What equipment do you use?
Jimmy (Singer/bandleader) is a qualified sound engineer, and prides himself on producing the best quality sound for your event. The band use Opera DX 910's for their front of house speakers and Mackie 450's x3 for monitors, plus a Line 6 Stagescape digital desk.
Do you have lights?
Yes, we have professional and portable LED stage lights
How long do you play for?
Two 60 min sets or three 40 minutes sets is the standard choice, depending on how the day is set up. We are flexible though and can play for longer if needs be.
What time do you start and finish?
We normally arrive at 4pm to be set by 6.30 and finish at midnight. We are of course very willing to discuss any alternatives.
How long do you take to set up?
Providing there is reasonable access to the venue, roughly an hour.
Can I provisionally book you?
We can pencil in your request for a few days and let you know first if we have another enquiry for the same date.
What if the band split up before my event?
It's highly unlikely that we won't fulfil our contractual engagements if that situation arose.
Do I need to feed the band?
The guys always perform better on full stomachs, and if it's convenient we would request a hot meal (equivalent to the guests) and light refreshments, although we wouldn't say no to a bottle of wine.
Can my sisters/bosses/daughter's dog sing with your band?
Absolutely! We would advise speaking to Jimmy before the event to arrange the key and form of the song. You never know, we might already have an arrangement for you.
What will the band wear?
Unless black tie is requested, we wear black suits and black shirts. Jimmy wears something outrageous!!
Does the band have PAT and PLI certificates?
We carry up to date PAT certification and have a combined Public Liability Insurance of up to £10M.
Why should I book?
We're slightly biassed, but we'd like to think that you won't find a better sounding and more charismatic singer than Jimmy, and the band are pretty good too!!
How much does it cost to book the band?
Even though we have a standard fee for each line up, dependent on travel and playing times, this can vary, and it's always best to speak to Jimmy to get a precise quote for your event.
Can we see some previous client testimonials?
Yes. Please have a look here: Testimonials
Do you have any specific requirements?
Only that you dance and enjoy yourselves.
What type/size venues are you able to play at?
The band have played all over the world literally on planes, trains and automobiles.
How loud will the band be?
We try to keep it to the acoustic of the drums and the room, but will amplify according to the size of the space and audience.
What is the band power requirement?
Reasonable access to two power sockets.

@RedSoxRedShoes Man, I LOVE talking to Uber and Lyft drivers. I think it's the writer in me. I want to know who the… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
It seems that computer makers have decided that I, amongst many, many others, am right about Vista not being the be-all, end-all of computing. HP, Dell and Lenovo computer manufacturers are all formulating plans for how they will continue to sell XP well past the June 30th cutoff set by Microsoft.
The plans consist of HP providing XP recovery discs to business customers who wish to downgrade from Vista for an undetermined amount of time. Lenovo will be stick with XP recovery options through January 31st of this year. However, Dell is taking the cake and promising XP, for possibly a small extra fee, through 2010, when Windows 7 is expected.
This information may end up being moot as Steve Ballmer, CEO of Microsoft, hinted to a conference in Belgium on Thursday that Microsoft may just extend XP themselves if customers demanded it. Um… I could be wrong, but when the computer manufacturers start telling you that customers want it, you may have the consumer vote you've been waiting on.
While many commenters on my previous Vista posts have been telling me it's all about how the users use it, I think that is part of the problem. XP, for all of its flaws, was pretty straight forward for the common user, and, sad to say, but you need to design for them still, they are still a large portion of the consumer base.
I think of the other huge problems was the lack of computability with older peripherals. Notice I said above that HP was going to be doing this for their business customers? Well, think about a large corporate office. Printers… scanners… networked drives… UPS supplies… peripheral after peripheral, and Vista not being compatible with that many of them. Many people said, "Oh, just buy new!" Er… I'm glad you think companies have never-ending tech budgets! As a small business owner, I have 3 printers in my office alone, and my key one, an HP LaserJet 6P has served me well for years… and would not work with Vista. So if I buy a Vista-based computer, I have to also budget for a new printer? I think not.
Microsoft thought of no one but themselves when it comes to Vista, and I think that concept is now biting them in their collective behinds, just as it should.

Whoa -- it's been a long time since I've posted a garden note, but that's because there's not a lot happening out there in this heat. We're down to basically tomatoes, peppers, and okra. There's not much else left.
Catching up, we harvested the "All Blue" potatoes. Total was 1.9 pounds, which is not a lot, but they were fun and they're pretty!
I'm getting lots of tomatoes (over 28 pounds so far), so I'm canning at least once a week. I'm making nothing but salsa this year. I may try to make some of those "Rotel Type" tomatoes that I did last year - they were good and we used them up pretty fast. The tomato plants are holding up pretty well, although they're showing some stress with this heat.
The jalapeno peppers keep on coming (about 10.1 pounds so far.) I'm also canning these about once a week. This past week I made Cowboy Candy for Jeff -- he really liked them, and I saved a couple of jars for the holidays.
I've been impressed with these Gypsy peppers - they're about 1/3 the size of a regular green pepper, but they are really prolific.
I was thinking we were done with the huckleberries, and I even tore down 3 of the 6 plants, thinking they were done. You can tell I was ignoring these by the weeds that are trying to take over. Well, here's what's happening with the other three I left there....new berries are covering it. Wow!
The elderberries are starting to ripen with this heat -- anticipating a really good crop this year! Future wine!
All around the grounds around my Litchi Tomato plant I found all of these -- they are dropping off of the plant. They're sweet, but so seedy, so we don't eat them - this plant is just a novelty for us. I'm thinking Turk (our turkey hen) will love them, she eats cherry tomatoes all the time.
The morning glory is finally filling out and has reached the top of the pole. They are all various shades of pink so far.
And I'm happy to report that the two mulberry trees have been growing in leaps and bounds since John trimmed away all the little suckers at the base of each of them. They are both about 6 foot tall now, over my head. That's me hiding behind one of them. I try to avoid the camera when I can. Ha!
In other garden news, the few summer squash plants that I replanted after the rains killed my first batch are growing and getting bigger -- I'm expecting some blooms on them soon.
I've ordered and received my fall garden seeds! Looking forward to starting some of these in August for the fall garden. I love the anticipation of a new garden!


text: This installation is an exploration of the ways in which individuals and groups operate and react to the notion of borders and control. Their reactions bear a direct relationship to the ways in which societies deal with gender separation, power relations, and information. This final exhibition is a conclusive juncture which is a result of the bulk of work made during this research. My creative practice is now taking on a broader responsibility in exploring issues that are currently of global interest, such as mass communication, gender specific issues and the notion of identity in the age of globalisation. Although, issues concerning Iranian identity still remain to be inspirational and my frequent visits toIranpresent me with yet more questions that remain to be explored.

We embarked from the celebrity eclipse and headed straight for the hop on hop off red tourist bus. We have travelled this city before and so this time knew exactly where we wanted to go. Our day tickets were 25 Euro each (free for under 12's) and perhaps we could of saved a few Bob by hailing a cab but we really did not want to have the fuss of finding one to get back to ship later in the day so we stuck to the route we knew best. Onboard I immediately linked to the free Wifi and checked my mails.
First stop was Tivoli gardens. We planned to spend a good four hours here and take advantage of the glorious weather. We opted to pay our entry fee into the gardens and buy our ride tokens separately. There were just a few rides we wanted to try as a family and it worked out cheaper for us to just go ahead and pick our fun. The gardens are amazing and totally blooming this time of year. With so much to see and something on every corner it was a bit of a rush for us to get around the whole park. There are rides for everyone and every age. There are restaurants and ice cream parlours spread throughout the park. There are also daily music shows.
We learn something new about Tivoli every year and as well as it being the oldest theme park in the world it was also where Walt Disney himself got his inspiration from when he visited as a child.

If you're starting to decorate for the holidays and need a way to either impress friends or disappoint your family, you might be interested in this stocking that is stealthily (ok, not that stealthily) a flask.
It's called Santa's Flask and it has a couple of great features, like being pretty massive. It holds up to two liters of liquid. It fills at the top and has an opening that's large enough you could drop some ice in there if you're getting creative with your holiday drinks.
Would You Ever Think to Put Truffles on Pancakes?
The loop at the top means you can actually hang gin and tonics over the hearth and use the nozzle at the foot of the stocking to fill yourself full of mirth. Santa's Flask is made of BPA-free, food-grade plastic, so it's safe to use even if it's not the most attractive mantel decoration in the house. (Though, it's inarguably superior to little cherubs.) It's so ridiculous that you'd probably actually use it, so everything kind of evens out in the end.
With shipping, the stocking runs $18.99, but it's a small price to pay to impress your red-coated friends at Santa Con or to secretly have an extra drink at a family gathering.

Annette was 'Julia Lambert' in "Being Julia" for Sony Pictures Classics, the role that earned the actress her third Oscar nomination. For that performance, she was also named the National Board of Review's "Best Actress," won the Golden Globe award for "Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Musical/Comedy," and received a SAG nomination for "Best Actress." She also starred in "Mrs. Harris" with Ben Kingsley for HBO, earning an Emmy, SAG, and Golden Globe nomination.
An award-winning stage actress, Annette has spent much of her time in front of the movie camera.

Her performance in the film earned her a Screen Actors Guild Award and the BAFTA (British Academy) Award. Her other film credits include Neil Jordan's "In Dreams," and "The Siege," opposite Denzel Washington and Bruce Willis.
Annette has been honored at the Deauville, Boston, Palm Springs and Chicago Film Festivals with Lifetime Achievement Awards, as well as receiving the Donostia Prize at the San Sebastian International Film Festival.

Born in Topeka, Kansas and raised in San Diego, Bening was enrolled at a local college when she got a job as a dancer in a pre-show presented outside of San Diego's famed Old Globe Theater. This led to a walk-on in a Shakespearean production and two plays with the San Diego Repertory Theater.
After attending San Diego Mesa College for two years, Annette graduated from San Francisco State University and was accepted by the American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco, where she trained until she joined the acting company. She also appeared in both summer Shakespearean festivals and regional productions until her career took her to New York.

Otis Spunkmeyer Frozen Cookie Dough FundraisersPosted on 04/24/2011 by Howard Gottlieb
More than 10 years ago we offered quite a few different cookie dough lines including Chippery Frozen Cookie Dough Fundraisers. As it turned out Otis Spunkmeyer purchased Chippery Cookie Dough a few years ago and decided they were not going to sell through the distribution network that we had become a part of. So not only did we not get to offer Otis Spunkmeyer frozen cookie dough fundraising products we stopped offer the Chippery as well.
So when people ask for Otis Spunkmeyer cookie dough fundraisers we tell them all about the cookie dough fundraisers we now offer. In fact we believe you will make more money using any of our cookie dough fundraising programs:
Home Delivery Cookie Dough Coupons: If you've held a frozen cookie dough fundraiser you may be one of the people who have learned to hate delivery day. One of the biggest complaints about frozen cookie dough fundraisers has always been delivery day and how to handle frozen products in one day.
With this program you sell 2.7 pound tubs of frozen cookie for $16 each the tub is sent directly to your customer's house. We believe that is a better spent $16 than the programs offered by the so called name brands.
$10 Frozen Gourmet Cookie Dough Fundraiser: Instead of offering national brand cookie dough at $15 per tub or more we offer 2 pound tubs of the best selling 6 flavors of cookie dough instead. Just think about it. Would you rather pay $10 for a tub of cookie dough or $16?? The answer is easy and that's why this has become the top selling cookie dough fundraiser in the county for our customers.
Dry Mix Cookie Dough Fundraiser: This is the perfect cookie dough fundraiser for groups that want to sell cookie dough but don't want to handle a frozen product. The cookie dough mix can be stored in your pantry and used to cook great tasting cookies whenever you're ready.
So although we do not offer Otis Spunkmeyer frozen cookie dough fundraisers we believe the programs we offer the best cookie dough fundraising ideas available!
Top Cookie Dough Fundraising Products
$10 Frozen Cookie Dough Tub Fundraiser
Frozen cookie dough is one of the best selling fundraising products. Everyone loves freshly baked cookies. This is our best selling cookie dough program because of the retail selling price.

Cookie Dough Mix Fundraiser
How many cookie dough fundraisers have no minimums, 50% profit and are free to start? That's why our Delisheries Cookie Mix fundraiser is skyrocketing in popularity. You can even qualify for FREE shipping. And now we've added Brownies, Pretzels, and Cinnamon Rolls as well.

Brand New!!! Now you can sell boxes of our best selling preportioned frozen cookie dough fundraising program for just $10 each. The dough is preformed into perfectly portioned cookies.

Carbon Monoxide and Smoke Alarm Safety
To prevent carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning, you should have furnaces and other fuel-burning appliances in your home inspected regularly by authorized service personnel.
What is carbon monoxide poisoning?
Carbon monoxide is a colourless, odourless, tasteless and toxic gas often referred to as the 'silent killer'. When inhaled, it inhibits your blood's capacity to transport oxygen throughout your body. Carbon monoxide can poison you quickly if highly concentrated or slowly over long periods of time.
How is carbon monoxide generated?
Carbon monoxide is a by-product of incomplete fuel combustion such as natural gas, propane, heating oil, kerosene, coal, charcoal, gasoline or wood. Incomplete combustion can occur in any device that depends on burning for energy or heat, such as furnaces, room heaters, fireplaces, hot water heaters, stoves or grills and any gas powered vehicle or engine. The following can create unsafe levels of carbon monoxide (CO):
- Automobiles left running in attached garages
- Gas barbecues operated inside your home
- Grills or kerosene heaters that are not properly vented
- Chimneys or vents that are dirty or plugged
When properly installed, maintained and vented, any CO produced by these devices will not stay inside the home.
What are some symptoms?
Exposure to CO can cause flu-like symptoms such as headaches, nausea, dizziness, burning eyes, confusion, drowsiness and even loss of consciousness. In severe cases, CO poisoning causes brain damage and death. The elderly, children and people with heart or respiratory conditions may be particularly sensitive to CO.
Where should I place a carbon monoxide detector in my home?
- CO detector should be located as near as possible to your bedrooms, where it can wake you if you are asleep. Where sleeping areas are located in separate parts of the home, a detector should be provided for each area.
- Unlike smoke, which rises to the ceiling, CO mixes with air. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for CO detector placement.
- To work properly, a detector should not be blocked by furniture, draperies or other obstructions to normal air flow.
- Please refer to the manufacturer's instructions for additional information regarding proper use and maintenance.
What are some additional safety tips?
Your knowledge and actions can prevent carbon monoxide poisoning and save lives. CO detectors are a good second line of defence, but regular inspections, maintenance and safe use of fuel-burning equipment is equally effective.

U.S. investors still have the bulk of their holdings in U.S. stocks and bonds. But today, more than three- quarters of the world's economic output is produced by the rest of the world.1
Investors who recognize opportunities don't end at the horizon can benefit from four major trends driving global growth:
- Increased wealth, as a growing middle class has money to spend.
- Technological innovation, as advances are disrupting every type of industry.
- Dynamic reinventions, as countries and companies are embracing change.
- Changing demographics, as an aging population wants its preferences met.
To take advantage of these opportunities, investors may want to increase their allocations to international stocks and bonds across the developed and emerging markets.
The paper Globalize Your Portfolio offers details on these opportunities and strategies that investors can implement with their advisors to gain greater exposure to all the world has to offer.
