Although traditional porcelain laminate veneers are much less invasive than other cosmetic dental applications, they still often require the removal of some of the surface tooth enamel, a process known as tooth reduction. Now, an alternative veneer treatment known as "no-prep" veneers eliminates this initial step of tooth reduction for some patients.
Although most reductions take very little of the tooth enamel, they do permanently alter the tooth. No-prep veneers are growing in popularity because the tooth is not permanently altered, allowing for two benefits: if desired, the veneer application can be reversed and the tooth returned to its original state; and there's more flexibility for patients to "test-drive" their new look with prototype veneers worn while the permanent veneers are manufactured, with changes made easily during this tryout period.
Dentists have long regarded at least a minimum of tooth reduction as absolutely necessary for the proper adhesion of veneers, and to avoid a bulky or over-contoured smile. And, while advances in no-prep veneers have largely addressed these concerns, it is true this option isn't for every patient considering a veneer application.
For example, patients with large or forward-positioned teeth are not good candidates for no-prep veneers. Patients who choose a veneer treatment over orthodontic treatment for certain conditions will likely need some tooth preparation to achieve an acceptable aesthetic result. For patients generally, no-prep veneers have a limited application range on the bottom jaw due to space limitations.
Simply put, traditional veneers are a more versatile option for most patients. On the other hand, no-prep veneers can be a good choice for patients with genetically small or misshapen teeth, teeth reduced by erosion or grinding, or those with narrow or diminished smiles.
If you're considering this option, our first step is to conduct a complete examination of your teeth and mouth. We'll carefully evaluate every aspect of your mouth structure and overall dental condition. If you fit the criteria, you may be able to avoid tooth reduction and still gain the smile you desire.

Whether you are a serious or "weekend" athlete, you know the importance of protecting yourself against injury. While looking after your joints, ligaments and bones may garner most of your attention, you shouldn't neglect looking after your teeth and mouth as well. In fact, there are more than 600,000 emergency room visits each year for sports-related dental injuries. A knocked out tooth could eventually cost you $10,000 to $20,000 in dental treatment during your lifetime.
The best protection is really quite simple — wear a properly-fitted athletic mouthguard. Researchers estimate that mouthguards may prevent more than 200,000 dental injuries annually. Be aware, though — not all mouthguards are alike or provide the same level of protection.
Mouthguards generally fall into three types. Stock mouthguards are the least expensive of the three, and also the least effective at protection. They come in limited sizes and can't be customized to the wearer. "Bite and Boil" mouthguards are made of thermoplastic that becomes pliable when heated (as when boiled in water). In this state the mouthguard can be pressed into the wearer's teeth, which hardens to that fit once the thermoplastic cools. However, the fit isn't exact and they don't always cover the back teeth. Also during the heat of competition, the mouthguard softens and loses some of its stability and protection.
While more expensive than the other two types, a custom-fitted mouthguard made by a dentist provides the best level of protection. Made of a tear-resistant material, they are more comfortable to wear than the other types and cover more of the interior of the wearer's mouth.
A properly fitted and worn mouthguard protects the mouth and jaw area in a number of ways. It cushions the soft tissue of the lips and gums from cuts and abrasions caused by contact with sharp teeth surfaces after an impact. It absorbs and distributes forces generated in an impact that can cause tooth loss or even jaw fracture, and also cushions the jaw joint (TMJ) to reduce the likelihood of dislocation or other trauma.
A custom-fitted mouthguard can cost hundreds of dollars, but that price is relatively small compared with the physical, emotional and financial price you'll pay for an injury. This investment in your oral health is well worth it.
If you would like more information on the use of athletic mouthguards, contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Athletic Mouthguards."
A crown is an effective way to save a tooth and restore its form and function. These life-like "caps" that fit over and are permanently attached to teeth have been used for decades with good results.
For this type of restoration to be effective, though, there must be enough of the natural tooth remaining above the gum line for the crown to "grab on to." This poses a problem if the tooth has broken or decayed too close to the gum tissue.
Fortunately, there is a way to expose more of the remaining tooth for applying a crown. Known as crown lengthening, this surgical procedure is also used for "gummy" smiles, where normal tooth length is obscured by excess gum tissue that makes the teeth appear shorter.
We begin the procedure by first numbing the tooth and gum area with a local anesthetic. We then make tiny incisions inside the gum line on both the tongue and cheek side of the tooth to create a small flap. With this area below the gum line now open to view, we then determine whether we need to remove excess gum tissue or a small amount of bone around the tooth to expose more of the tooth itself. We then position the opened gum tissue against the bone and tooth at the appropriate height to create an aesthetic result.
You shouldn't experience any discomfort during the procedure, which usually takes about sixty minutes for a single tooth area (which needs to involve at least three teeth for proper blending of the tissues). The pressures and vibrations from equipment, as well as any post-procedure discomfort, are similar to what you would encounter with a tooth filling. After the gum tissue has healed (about six to eight weeks), we are then able to fit and attach a crown onto the extended area.
Crown lengthening a small area may result in an uneven appearance if you're dealing within the aesthetic zone. One option in this case is to consider undergoing orthodontic treatment first to correct the potential discrepancy that may result from surgery. After orthodontics, we can perform crown lengthening on just the affected tooth and still achieve an even smile.
Crown lengthening is just one of many tools we have to achieve tooth restorations for difficult situations. Using this technique, we can increase your chances of achieving both renewed tooth function and a more beautiful smile.
If you would like more information on crown lengthening, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Saving Broken Teeth."
If you're apprehensive about visiting the dentist, you're not alone. Studies show a majority of us — as high as 75% — have experienced some form of anxiety about dental treatment. Between 10% and 15% of those have a high degree of anxiety that may cause them to avoid visiting the dentist altogether.
If you've experienced this level of anxiety, you weren't born with it. Such fears develop from early experiences with dentistry, or from stories or attitudes relayed to us by others. While this undue emotional stress could adversely affect your general health, the greater threat is to your oral health, if it causes you to avoid dental care altogether.
Fortunately, anxiety from the thought of dentistry can be overcome. The best approach is relatively simple — counteract the bad experiences of the past with new, more positive experiences. Moderate dentistry should be able to completely eliminate any discomfort during treatment. And with each new good experience, your feelings and attitudes will gradually change over time for the better.
The first step is to discuss your anxiety about dental care with us. It's important to establish trust with your care provider from the outset if you want to successfully overcome your anxiety. We will listen and not discount or diminish the reality of your fears and their emotional and physical effect; instead, we will work with you to include overcoming anxiety as a part of your treatment plan.
The next step is to proceed with treatments and procedures you feel you can easily undergo, so that at the end of each visit you'll have a more positive view of that particular treatment (and that you could undergo it again). We won't rush to complete treatments until you're ready for them. Although this may extend the duration needed to complete a procedure, it's important for us to proceed at a pace more conducive to creating and reinforcing new positive feelings and attitudes about dental visits.
In the end, we want to do more than treat an immediate or emergency-related dental condition. We want to help you overcome the anxiety that has kept you from seeking long-term dental care — and thus better dental health — a part of your life.
If you would like more information on overcoming dental treatment anxiety, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Overcoming Dental Fear & Anxiety."
While dental implants are the preferable choice for teeth replacement, your life circumstances may cause you to postpone it or some other permanent restoration. In the meantime, you need a temporary solution for your tooth loss.
Removable partial dentures (RPDs) have met this need for many years. RPDs are traditionally made of rigid, acrylic plastic resin and fasten to existing teeth with metal clasps. While effective as temporary tooth replacements, RPDs do have their drawbacks: they can be uncomfortable, develop a loose fit and are prone to wear and staining.
Recently, though, new RPDs made of a flexible type of nylon are addressing some of these drawbacks. Because the nylon material is thermoplastic (able to change shape under high heat), it can be injected into a cast mold of a patient's mouth to create the denture base, to which life-like replacement teeth are then attached. And rather than a metal clasp, these RPDs have thin, finger-like nylon extensions that fit snugly around existing teeth at the gum line.
The new RPDs are lightweight, resistant to fracture and offer a more comfortable, snugger fit than the older RPD. And because the nylon material can be made to closely resemble gum tissue, the base can be designed to cover receding gum tissue, which may further improve the appearance of a patient's smile.
On the downside, these new RPDs are difficult to reline or repair if they're damaged or the fit becomes loose. And like all RPDs, they must be regularly removed and cleaned thoroughly to prevent any accumulating bacterial biofilm that could increase the risk of gum disease or tooth decay (the attachment extensions are especially susceptible to this accumulation). They should also be removed at night, since the reduction in saliva flow while you sleep can worsen bacterial buildup.
Still, the new flexible RPD is a good choice to bridge the time gap between lost teeth and a permanent restoration. They can restore lost function and improve your smile during the transition to implants or a fixed bridge.
If you would like more information on temporary tooth replacement, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation.

To identify dietary and lifestyle variables that may affect cognitive function in the elderly.
Population-based prospective cohort study.
General community residing in Athens and the surrounding Attica region of Greece.
A total of 732 men and women, 60 years or older, participating in the EPIC–Greece cohort (European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition) and residing in the Attica region had sociodemographic, anthropometric, medical, dietary and lifestyle variables ascertained at enrolment (1993–1999). Six to 13 years later, cognitive function was evaluated through the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score and affective state through the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS).
MMSE score was positively associated with years of formal education, height and physical activity and inversely with age, diabetes mellitus and GDS score (P < 0·05 for all). Among dietary variables, intake of PUFA was inversely associated with cognitive function and this association was largely accounted for by a similar association with seed oils. Adherence to the Mediterranean diet, as well as intake of olive oil, MUFA and SFA exhibited weakly positive but not significant associations.
Physical activity and early life factors as reflected in height are significant predictors of cognitive function in the elderly. Seed oil consumption may adversely affect cognition, whereas other nutritional factors do not appear to have a quantitatively large effect.

Video marketing for targeted traffic
Video marketing is one of the most effective ways to generate targeted traffic. Once you've created the correct video, you can submit it to YouTube, Vimeo, Dailymotion, Viddler, and other places where video submission is allowed. By listing your site information in the description section, most people tend to follow up with the video demo if it is sufficiently compelling. Keep in mind that people prefer video rather than reading, and you should take advantage of this.
This is because watching videos is much easier, and it's easier to communicate your opinions when you use images and talk directly to them. In fact, in a recent Vimeo survey, respondents explained that they were three times more likely to watch a video than to read a blog post.
One of the latest trends in targeted traffic video marketing is a video called Vine. These short films take about five or six seconds to take full advantage of emotions, understand trends, and focus on a single expression that appeals to thousands of viewers. This new type of video marketing is also associated with products and services that can be quickly promoted and conducted in a fun and interesting way to address the short-term concerns of most potential customers and customers.
Another powerful form of video marketing is to follow up when you take the time to teach and/or direct people to deal with hot topics by proving that you can provide the other information they need to succeed.
For example, there are many online instructional videos about the basics of online marketing; but to get a complete story, you need to subscribe to the marketer's email list and follow up on other courses through service fees or membership rates. These method videos produce a lot of target traffic, and almost anyone can create them. Remember to focus on solving the problem, these videos will bring a lot of traffic.
Another good way to use video to generate traffic is to focus on receiving high-target videos for millions of views, then approach the owner and ask if they can pay them some money so they can post your URL in their description section. Since most people are not marketers and think this is a chance to earn a few dollars a month, most people are happy to do so. When you do this, you will also receive a lot of targeted traffic.Online Dating Program For Men (view mobile),Click here! Online Art Lessons (view mobile),Click here!

Now seems to be one of those teaching moments about the Reformation. Despite celebrations and commemorations of a year ago, no one seemed to go deep in the weeds about what differentiates Protestants and Roman Catholics. Now is a teaching moment because the Roman Catholic faithful, naturally upset with the bishops, cardinals, and pope over the sex scandal and questions swirling around who knew and when did they know it — the Roman Catholic faithful remain committed to remaining. No Prexit for them — as in, leave the Roman Catholic communion for a Protestant church or communion. That option seems unthinkable because these Roman Catholics understand their church to be special.
One aspect of that specialness is the Mass. George Weigel recently explained why he and many others could not leave Rome despite the very bad news that keeps circling the church:
…it's entirely understandable that more than a few Catholics have choked on the word "holy" these past few months, when asked to affirm it of the Church during the Creed and the Offertory. But while understandable, it still bespeaks a misunderstanding. The reason why is given immediately after the defection story in John 6: 60-66, when the Lord asks the Twelve whether they, too, are going to bail on him and Peter answers, "Master, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life."
Everlasting life is offered to us sacramentally at every Mass. That is what we believe; that is why we remain in the Church; and that is why we must all bend every effort, from our distinct states of life in the Mystical Body of Christ, to reform what must be reformed so that others may know and love the Lord Jesus and experience the life-giving fruits of friendship with him. The Church's current crisis is a crisis of fidelity and a crisis of holiness, a crisis of infidelity and a crisis of sin. It is also a crisis of evangelization, for shepherds without credibility impede the proclamation of the Gospel—which, as the other headlines of the day suggest, the world badly needs.
That is the Roman Catholic understanding of the church and worship. The Christian life revolves around the Mass — that is where you find Jesus "really present."
But Peter did say, as Weigel quotes, "the words of eternal life." The apostle Paul also emphasized the importance of words, and therefore of preaching, when he wrote:
14 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? 15 And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, w"How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!" 16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed what he has heard from us?" 17 So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ. (Rom 10)
And that is the Protestant view of worship and the Christian life. We do have sacraments and they are vital. But they do not have force apart from the word, which is prior and why Protestants talk about "word and sacrament."
That difference still leaves unresolved why a Roman Catholic disturbed by the corruption in his or her church would not consider becoming a Protestant. Peter did say "words of eternal life" not "sacrament of eternal life." Preaching the word matters. That's how you come to faith in Jesus. Protestants do that.

How to install Windows from USB- WinSetupFromUSB with GUI
uvioc replied to ilko_t's topic in Install Windows from USBHi, great programme. Trying to install XP on a Samsung NC10 which has an existing install but has recently caught a pretty terminal virus (Win32/VBS Ramnit). Following this guide and using version v0.2.3 I think I successfully made a bootable USB, and all was going well until during the normal blue XP setup screens, I received this message: 'No previous version of Windows NT could be found on your computer. Setup is unable to verify that you qualify to use this upgrade product. Press F3 to exit.' I can only assume that this is due to the fact that the XP Home disc used to make the USB is an upgrade (genuine). But I have never had this issue before in the dozens of times I've used it. Is there any way around this? This is really frustrating - I have the genuine disc and key but am unable to install! Until I can sort it my NC10 is kaput. Any advice appreciated.

Very clean and friendly staff. Nice breakfast buffet.
Room was nice and staff were excellent. Would stay again
Lovely short stay
Everything was great. the room was Modern and clean . the staff were friendly.
Highly recommend this hotel
My husband and I had an amazing time. We wanted a weekend away to just hang out and do nothing. The hotel was clean and quiet and we loved being able to bring our dog. I'm not sure who at the hotel decided to put old sheets over the chairs to protect them while there was a dog in the room, but they are a genius. We really appreciated that. And our dog definitely appreciated his baggy of treats and tennis balls. We have access to the Summit Lounge and the free drinks were a great perk. The fancy coffee machine and syrups was awesome. Room service was great and I highly recommend the baked brie off the menu. I was delicious. We will definitely be staying at this hotel again in the future.

Born in Hannover, Germany, my career started when I was 15 years old.
In 2013, and after 2 apprenticeships as a chef and pastry chef, and my experience in world class hotels and resorts with world renowned hotel chains on 4 continents, I fulfilled my dream.
SAACA, The South African Academy of Culinary Arts, a place where I can pass on my vision, passion and knowledge and where I can guide young aspiring chefs in the right direction,
Our curriculum is designed in such a way that we can concentrate on the most important part of your study, the practical part.
One day a week will be theoretical training and the rest of the week with be intensive, hands on training.
With groups not bigger than 12, we provide interactive and more efficient training sessions. These sessions allow students to reach the highest standards expected by the culinary world.
Part of your training includes 2 internships. One will be in South Africa and for the second one we will offer you a once in a lifetime opportunity to travel overseas to a select 5 star international hotel.
It may be the beginning of an international career. We have had students who have been offered full time contracts during their internships and who are now permanently employed overseas.
At SAACA, with the help of the hotel and restaurant industry, we have designed a flexible and practical education system for students who aspire to become professional chefs and for practicing professionals who wish to get a formal qualification and or strengthen their skills.
During the past 25 years I have met many professionals which today I can call my friends and professional contacts.
I travel 3-4 times a year within the Middle east or Asia, consulting for Switzerland's number 1 chocolate, Chocolate Frey, or as a private consultant assisting in hotel openings, training workshops for hotels and or groups.
This allows me to keep in contact with these people and to stay up to date with what is happening around the world culinary wise.
The most important outcome of your study will be the fact that you receive an accreditation that will be internationally recognized.
An accreditation that is internationally accepted and that together with a reference from SAACA, will enable you to find employment.
As a student of SAACA you will receive a diploma issued by City & Guilds International
To produce high quality food, pastries, confections and breads, you will need training, skills, and, just as importantly, e
xceptional raw ingredients and equipment. Students of SAACA only use the best.
We would like to thank all our sponsors for the continued support.

Gratitude Letters
"Craniosacral therapy provides me with the time and space to receive healing. With busy schedules and lots of to-dos, I find that when I lay down on the table I can stop and just be. This allows my body to adjust and sort itself out to heal. What surprises me the most, is how good I feel for days following. I can feel the healing effects for days after. Sometimes memories will pop into my head and I realize it is my bodies way of releasing trauma or something I'm holding on to. I participate in all sorts of healing modalities and always have but craniosacral is one of my favorites. It provides me with the very deep healing and connection that I desire regularly."
-Shauna L.
"Jill possesses all the qualities I would ask of a great healing practitioner and teacher. She is centered and grounded in her own body and connected to the energies of the earth and sky. Most importantly, she is open to the source of healing which flows through her heart and hands to the recipient. She is caring and empathetic and possesses the rare quality of humility. She is a good role model of health through self-care."
- Diana L.
"I came to Jill a few years ago out of curiosity and for general well-being. I was amazed at how much my body responded to craniosacral and how much relief I received for physical ailments as well as emotional. From the moment I lay down on the table, I immediately feel safe and relaxed in every session. During the treatment, I can feel so much expansion and release all throughout my body. Having regular treatments have really helped me feel balanced and at peace. I have really noticed that I feel much more clear in my mind, have less pain in my back and just overall feel more even. "
- Leah R.
"On the surface it may appear that Jill addresses a physical issue, releasing the tension in a specific spot. However, I truly believe she is helping me release trapped past emotions and blood flow that is stuck in order to relieve both the physical and emotional stagnation.
She has helped me realize that I am in control of my wellbeing and how I respond to situations is up to me. I need to look inward for answers and not to others. This in turn helps me to live in the present moment and not react as I would have in the past.
I come out of each session more relaxed and energized at the same time.... Yes this is possible!"
- Maria W.
"Jill is amazing!!! I have been on a path of learning to better myself, and to release energy and worried thoughts that do not belong to me. Because I was unable to do this on my own, I was getting terrible headaches, and feeling worn down. Jill's hands are magic, and now I can't live without her. I see her twice a month, and my headaches have yet to return. I trust and respect her. Thank you so much for helping me find my way, and for helping me remain in a good."
- Kassandra B.
"Jill is the first person that I've ever done cranial sacral with. She really was informative, and delightful to work with. I had experienced things I never have before through my body. I would highly recommend her. She is very well spoken and compassionate. A Wonderful listener who totally understood what I was going through with my anxieties. She is truly a gifted soul."
-Pam G.
"This is one of the best ways I know to feel super relaxed. When you don't realize your muscles just aren't relaxing, it's amazing to let them get past that tightness and have your body reset for a change. I had such a great experience that I convinced my wife to check it out. My wife was apprehensive since she just popped out an 11 pounder, 2 weeks earlier. Jill thought it would help with my wife's healing, she was right! She had great postpartum care from Jill. Fast forward a bit and now we have a toddler and a newborn, that also weighed double digits. It was a quick choice to see Jill again when those nagging back pains wouldn't go away. Thank you so much, Jill!"

An international symposium of plein air painting kicked off at Armenian State Pedagogical University on May 1. The symposium entitled "Plein air Armenia -2016" is organized by the Chair of Fine Arts and will continue until May 10.
The event has brought together 16 renowned artists from six countries who will participate in discussions and debates on various issues, share and exchange experience and conduct master classes.
Welcoming the guests, ASPU Rector Ruben Mirzakhanyan said 'though Armenia is known as the sunniest spot the guests have brought with them more sunshine.'
"The sun is necessary for you to see the natural beauty of our country in its totality. I am sure that during your stay in Armenia you will get positive impressions and experience, which will boost your creativity and efficiency," Mr Mirzakhanyan said. At the same time, he expressed hope that the international symposium would become traditional and would be held every year.
"You are hosted by a young republic that has centuries-old history," said Professor Paravon Mirzoyan, who heads the Chair of Fine Arts. He assured everyone that the international plein air symposium was an unprecedented, yet important event in the system of Armenian higher education.
The Professor stressed that by participating in the symposium the best artists of the sphere will help ASPU students to better master the secrets of painting, give them professional advice and tips and introduce their national culture to others.
"Even in the most difficult times for our country, Armenian people are ready to welcome others and fascinate them with their culture," Paravon Mirzoyan said introducing the agenda of plein air symposium. He added that the paintings will first be exhibited at the National Gallery of Armenia and then at the ASPU Museum.
Polish-Armenian painter Gagik Parsamian conveyed his admiration and gratitude to the participants, saying they had been trying to organize the symposium, specifically in Armenia for three years. The painter, who has participated in numerous plein air events, says similar initiatives greatly increase interest in the country, increasing its popularity.
The students were especially delighted by the present of Olga Sinko, who arrived in Armenia from England to participate in the symposium. At her invitation, one of the best graduates of the Faculty of Art Education will travel to England for 10 days and visit different exhibitions there.
The 10-day symposium aims to introduce the invitees with the education system, structure and activities of the Armenian university, deepen and develop educational and cultural ties with different countries.
On the sidelines of the event, the guests will also visit historic and cultural sites in Armenia to get acquainted with the country and get a closer look at the source of inspiration of Armenian artists. They will also paint with students of the Faculty of Art Education – future arts teachers, get familiar with the education process, conditions at studios and the level of students' involvement in the new education system.
The symposium will end with a final exhibition at the National Gallery of Armenia. Each painter will donate one of his/her best paintings to the ASPU.

Clients have been managing lawyer performance mostly as a billing concept. Meanwhile, the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure amendments will push Baby Boomer lawyers to embrace tech—or retire. This type of company may no longer be formed in the UK, although provisions still exist in law for them to exist.
Clients will demand transparency, innovative problem solving and client teams that can deliver timely results at appropriate pricing. Periscope, Blab, Facebook Live, Snapchat, etc. Cybersecurity is growing at 3 times the market rate; class actions are gaining momentum; health care companies plan to increase spending in 10 legal segments—the most of any industry; complex litigation is growing rapidly.
Although a large percentage of lawyers work for big, corporate law firms, but there are still many lawyers who are employed at mid-sized regional firms and even in one- man and two-person law firms.
The hot industries and practice areas from last year have disappeared.
And, the organizations that successfully navigate this leadership transition will be the top law firms and legal departments in and beyond. Our solution was to do away with the billable hour. Lawyers would always be in need by people, companies, schools, and what have you. Okay, so we have considered all the requirements for starting a law firm.
Before the passing of modern companies legislation, these were the only types of companies. However, I believe law firms and other small businesses will increasingly replace their aging, mobile-challenged file servers with Dropbox. This transition will accelerate changes in operating models, employee recruiting and retention strategies, technology utilization and more.
Truth is that with a business plan template, you are able to use the model to write yours.

However, it differs from such firms in several important aspects: These clients, billed at a reasonable rate, will subsidize the public interest clients. The three most prevalent types of for-profit partnerships are general partnershipslimited partnershipsand limited liability partnerships.
Therefore, if the attorney is providing satisfactory or better service to a client, the client is likely to form a long lasting business relationship with that attorney and his firm.

Origon trail game

Cal Women's Basketball: Former Cal Commit Lauren Fields Commits to Oklahoma St.
Cal had hoped that the hiring of Charmin Smith as its new women's head basketball coach would enable the Bears to keep incoming freshman Lauren Fields.
Apparently it was not enough, as Fields announced via twitter Tuesday night that she has committed to Oklahoma State
Fields had signed with Cal last November. But after Lindsay Gottlieb left as Cal's head coach to become an assistant coach with the NBA Clevelamnd Cavaliers, Fields requested a release from her letter of intent to consider other options.
Fields, a guard at Shawnee (Oklahoma) High School, was rated a four-star recruit, and opted to play at a school closer to home.
Dan Olson of ESPNW Hoopgurlz had this assessment of Fields: "Athletic guard manufactures, rises and delivers off the dribble with feathery touch; 3-point range opportunist, creates off the bounce and delivers results."
Oklahoma State went 14-16 this past season, including 5-13 in the Big 12.
Cal signed guard Jazlen Green of Lakeside High School in southern California and forward Evelien Lutje Schipholt of The Netherlands during the spring signing period after signing after signing Fields and guard Cailyn Crocker of Mater Dei High School last fall.
Smith is hoping to convince sophomore-to-be McKenzie Forbes to remain at Cal after she requested a release from Cal a week ago so she could explore other options.

Self-assembly of Chiral Supra-amphiphile
Supra-amphiphile provides a brand-new powerful strategy for the construction of functional materials and showed fascinating prospects in a variety of field. When merging with chirality science, the concept of chiral supra-amphiphile arises, which is an important subclass of supra-amphiphile. In this review, we have provided a general introduction to the concept and design principle of chiral supra-amphiphile as well as their self-assemblies. We also highlighted some progress of chiral supra-amphiphile in several application fields, such as chiroptical switch, chiral recognition, chiral catalysis and chiral luminescent soft materials. Although some elegant reviews have comprehensively looked back the development and achievement of supra-amphiphile, its research progress in chirality science has not been well summarized. We hope this review will provide useful guidance and understanding of self-assembly of chiral supra-amphiphiles, which we believe will benefit scientists in both colloidal chemistry and chirality science.

Looking back at my week in Tokyo, Golden Gai had to be one of my favorite areas of the city. A tucked-away spot in Shinjuku, it's a group of tiny bars in alleyways that harken back to traditional Japanese architecture. After spending two nights in Golden Gai, it secured a spot in my heart as a must-see in Tokyo!
I stayed in Shinjuku, so Golden Gai was just a short walk from my Airbnb. It's in an area that is unassuming and seemed fairly residential, but the sudden abundance of neon lights and the sound of the muted bass give it away. Just six cramped alleys make up the "Golden District", but they are filled with more bars than you would think! I arrived around 7 PM on a Monday for my first visit, and even at this off time there was plenty to do and see.
As I expected from online research, a few bars had signs out front asking for "Japanese speakers only", or simply did not include English on their signage, which was a giveaway that they weren't seeking business from foreigners. Others, meanwhile, had signs welcoming tourists and offering drink specials. Going with a group of five people did make it a bit more difficult to get around. With many of the bars only having five seats total, we were out of luck if there was even one patron. I'd recommend going in a group of just two or three, or even solo, to get the most out of the environment.
One thing that I quickly learned was to not just focus on the ground level. Behind every door, there was likely one or two more bars, above or below the street. The cramped staircases and dim lighting could be intimidating, but they led to some of the best bars that we found. Overall, I would say to go in with an open mind and a flexible plan. You can read about the top bars with quirky themes, but I had the most fun just walking in spots with open seating and chatting with the local bartenders or visitors.
The crowd is quite the mixed bunch! Earlier in the evening there are plenty of Japanese businessmen enjoying post-work drinks, but there are a fair amount of tourists sprinkled in too. Later in the night, I spotted a Jigsaw in drag (yes, from Saw), a few groups of expats, and a lot of musically-inclined locals. Everyone I spoke to was friendly and interested in chatting, and the close atmosphere really nurtures these conversations. As I mentioned in a previous post, one bartender even remembered us on our second visit! That type of interaction simply won't happen at the larger bars or clubs. It felt like we were forming real global friendships and connections.
And lastly, the drinks were amazing! For the most part you could get a drink for somewhere between 500-700 yen, which is pretty reasonable and comparable to prices in the United States. I had fun asking the bartenders for recommendations since I am not familiar with Asian alcohol, and ended up having a wonderful homemade plum liqueur, an interesting yogurt soju, and of course some sake. While we did find one spot with food, don't plan on filling up on a large meal here; it's definitely a place made for drinking!
So if you journey to Tokyo, definitely dedicate a night or two to the lovely and bizarre Golden Gai. Make some fast friends, enjoy delicious drinks, and just take in this unusual arrangement in the heart of Tokyo.

A Gentle Force
Dedicated to Lon
Submitted by Leah
I could not believe how much fate was pushing us together over those last two weeks before Lon moved to Calgary. In a year of living right across the hall, I had only ran into him a couple of times a month much to my disappointment. Now we were laughing at the regularity of our chance meetings in the hallway, in the parking garage and even in the local video store. It was now a once or twice a day occurrence. Knowing we needed to explore the purpose of these meetings, we decided to get together. That decision changed our lives forever.
Two weeks later he had an employment opportunity in Calgary that he couldn't refuse, but feeling the way we already did about each other, we agreed to start this new life together. Within two months of moving I was diagnosed with Type 1 (Juvenile) diabetes and our life quickly did a 180 degree turn again. Any hope of starting a family was restricted by my doctors, and my new life became a constant source of anxiety and fear. I couldn't stand to be away from my family and my home any longer. Lon promised me he would do whatever it took to make our life easier and better, so we packed up and headed home, deciding to open our own business on the coast.
He has been nothing less than a constant source of non-judgemental support and pure, unconditional love throughout our entire relationship. He has given me the freedom to test my new boundaries while offering that soft place to fall when things don't always work out. He has not only been my security blanket during numerous medical emergencies and severe panic attacks, but has encouraged me to take control of this disease in the most gentle and loving of ways. When I'm overwhelmed with self-pity and take my anger out on him, he just tells me that he will always love me and that it's okay that he knows who I really am underneath all of this.
Lon has never been able to do any traveling and has always dreamt of going to Hawaii. I however, was lucky enough to have lived there for a few years as a child. Sometimes we lay in bed and I tell him about the beautiful beaches and the scents of gardenia and plumeria that waft through the air. I know he can't truly picture it the way I can which is something that makes me sad because he deserves to feel that kind of peace that only comes from knowing the islands. Both of our dreams are to get married in Hawaii, as we have never been on a single holiday together. Up until now we haven't been able to afford to have a wedding and as it is my first, we wanted it to be special. We are now saving for that day and would love if it could be in such a perfect place.

A report tabled yesterday in House of Commons has found the federal government's protections of Canadian lakes and waterways against aquatic invasive species, or AIS, are inadequate.
The report also contains recommendations directing the federal government to undertake immediate action to protect Canadian waters from aquatic invasive species.
The report from the Standing Committee on Fisheries and Oceans follows a study initiated by Mel Arnold, Member of Parliament for North Okanagan – Shuswap, last November.
During the study, the Committee received testimony from individuals and organizations from across Canada including the Okanagan Basin Water Board (OBWB), Columbia-Shuswap Invasive Species Council, Shuswap Watershed Council and Invasive Species Council of BC.
"This report provides important input for the fight against aquatic invasive species across Canada," said Arnold. "The Committee heard from Canadians on the frontline of the fight against invasive species, including those in the North Okanagan-Shuswap, who successfully conveyed to the committee the acute need for stronger resources and coordination of efforts to protect of our lakes and waterways."
While the annual cost of managing invasive mussels in Ontario alone is an estimated $100 million annually, a 2013 study by the OBWB estimated an infestation in the Okanagan would cost $43 million annually just to manage. The cost of preventing such infestations are much lower than managing invasive species after they're introduced, and the Parliamentary report's recommendations reflect the need for stronger prevention efforts and resources.
"The ecological and economic harms of invasive species like zebra mussels are undisputed, no one is debating the devastation they cause, so our focus must be the timely implementation of measures proven to work," said Arnold.
"Responses I have been receiving from Ministers of Fisheries and Oceans over the past three years to concerns I've raised regarding these threats have be unsatisfactory which is why this study was necessary and I sincerely hope some of our recommendations will be implemented in time for the peak tourist season when thousands of boats will be arriving in our region."

Issue date: 14th March 2012
BW's Group Hydrology Manager, Adam Comerford, recently briefed representatives of AWCC, IWA, NABO and RBOA on the implications of drought conditions for navigation over the coming months. Adam described the £700,000 current investment in some 28 drought schemes to improve resource availability through pumped refill of reservoirs, lock gate repairs and new monitoring and control instruments etc.
The strategy for maximising availability for navigation is based on modelling of water resources and preparing plans to increase and then conserve available resources so that they are enjoyed by boaters over as long a period as possible.
BW have said they will share information on the latest resource position regularly and publish maps showing specific sections of the network which are most likely to require restrictions. BW are asking boaters to be guided by this information when planning their summer cruising.
Initially, BW are thinking in terms of concentrating navigation through vulnerable areas between 10am and 3pm. This will concentrate traffic and maximise water use efficiency. Volunteer lock keepers are being recruited and will be trained to assist boaters through locks ensuring an efficient use of water. But, overall lock availability will reduce and boaters will be encouraged to give careful thought to their cruising plans. It is possible that the opening windows will need to shorten if there is no significant rainfall. We will give boaters as much advance warning as possible of any new or changed restrictions.
BW will issue monthly updates comprising information from the Water Management team and Waterway Units. It will give boaters an overview of the water resource position and any restrictions in place at that time. Information will be communicated via various routes – Waterscape, Boaters' Update (as well as specific 'drought' direct emails), text messages and via boating organisations and locally via Waterway Units.
Advice to all boaters is to check the latest stoppage information on the Waterscape website before planning a cruise. Register on this page to receive email notifications of changes to restrictions on particular waterways. The free monthly e-newsletter Boaters' Update will carry brief background reports on the water resource position more generally and there are FAQs available on the Waterscape website.
