Search Patient Library
Find answers and other helpful dental topics in our digital library.
Some dental procedures, such as tooth extractions and oral surgery, may call for our office to prescribe medications before or after a procedure. These medications are used to prevent or fight an infection, or to relieve any post-operative discomfort and pain.
For these reasons, it is extremely important that you share your entire medical history - including any medications you are currently taking - with our office. Some medications used in dentistry, and other medical practices, could interact with those medications in a detrimental way. In addition, if you have any allergic reactions to certain medications, it is important for our office to know beforehand.
Finally, if you are prescribed any medication by our office, follow the dosage instructions very carefully, and if instructed, finish your entire prescription even if you are no longer feeling pain.

To flash it properly, you need to make sure you download the the tjtag. It is for linux users. Windows users please find your way to use this application as I am not good in operating Windows.
For the WRT54G2 use /fc:10 as something like below:
root@node01:~/tjtag -flash:cfe /skipdetect /fc:10
It may be varies for different versions and model. For my model I had found that chipset is equivalent to the fc:10. In the later post I will show you how I found out the model for this wireless router.
Remember to copy the CFE.BIN to the working directory as we only flash the CFE and not the whole firmware. Flashing the whole firmware will takes TWO hours. I had tried a few times and wasted lots of time. Flashing the CFE will only takes about FIVE minutes and you can do many trials and errors.
Flash with CFE then reboot the wireless modem then upload the firmware with tftp ready. For how to use linux command tftp, I will show you all in the later post.

The best friend of Kim Dorsett, whose son and daughter were among those who drowned at Dreamworld this week, says her friend is too frozen with grief to blame anyone over the tragedy.
Sandra Brookfield and her sister have started a crowdfunding campaign to support Ms Dorsett and her daughter Kate Goodchild's husband, David Turner, who Ms Brookfield described as "very distraught".
"Kim contacted me 10 minutes after the accident, so I was her first contact," Ms Brookfield told nine.com.au.
"Katie's mother-in-law rang Kim to tell her of the accident, and Kim said that was a bad joke, in very bad taste…Kim rang me directly after that."
Ms Brookfield described Ms Dorsett has a "single person living in a housing commission home" who was going to need assistance.
"She worked at Woolworths supporting these children…she doesn't have the back-up, they're not wealthy in any stretch of the imagination," she said.
Mr Turner too is now facing life as a single parent with limited financial means.
"He's very distraught, distressed, they're just not thinking straight at all," Ms Brookfield said.
"(He's) coming up with things like 'how am I going to meet the mortgage?' All this 'how am I going to?'"
Ms Brookfield was able to clarify some inaccurate reports that have circulated this week, including that Mr Turner, who watched on with his eight-month-old daughter Evie, was blaming himself for what happened.
"No, no, no," she said. "He realised there was nothing he could do. Just nothing. It wasn't an act of god, but Ebony was saved. We're just so thankful for that. With him on the sidelines with the baby in the stroller…no."
The survival of Ebony, 13, has been described as "miraculous". She was thrown clear of the raft as it overturned, and witnessed deaths of her mum, her uncle Luke Dorsett, 35, his partner Roozbeh Araghi, 38, and Cindy Low, 42, who was at the park with her 10-year-old son.
Ms Brookfield also confirmed that Deborah Thomas, the CEO of Dreamworld's parent company, Ardent Leisure, had contacted Ms Dorsett after she was put on the spot at a press conference yesterday by a Channel 10 reporter.
"Deborah had rung her and was extremely upset and very sorry," Ms Brookfield said. "Kim herself is just so frozen that she can't blame anyone, she's got no blame, she's just grieving."
Ms Thomas has faced heavy criticism for her handling of the incident, particularly after it emerged the company had signed off on $840,000 worth of performance bonuses in the days after the accident.
"(Ardent Leisure) totally mishandled it," Ms Brookfield said of the company's response. She was also flabbergasted at Ms Thomas's announcement that she would donate her entire yearly bonus of $167,000 to the Red Cross.
"Why the Red Cross? Why? Truly, I just thought why the Red Cross? Why hasn't it gone into MyCause?"
The MyCause account, however, is storming towards its $50,000 target, with the total donated increasing by thousands of dollars every few minutes. Ms Brookfield is delighted with the support her dear friend is receiving.
"This is the only way I can reach out to her – I was even supposed to be out with them on the Gold Coast, Kim had asked me to come," she said. "But it was the first family holiday they've had in – I can't tell you, it could be 30 years.
"It's just so tragic and no mother should have to bury two children."
Ms Brookfield says that for the moment Ms Dorsett just wants to "lock the door and see no one".
But when she faces the world again, her friend will be there waiting.
But when she faces the world again, her friend will be there waiting.
"She will come back to me, she will come back to my home, I will be there next week when the bodies are returned," she said.
"We've been there together through kindergarten, high school, births, marriages, and now death."

Product Review: Shea Moisture Intensive Hydration Conditioner/
I was (and still am) in love with the Sheamoisture Manuka Honey And Mafura Oil Intensive Hydration Hair Masque (a deep conditioner) and I am just as in love with their version of the conditioner.
I find Shea Moisture a great brand that is easily accessible from Target to your local CVS' and most importantly it has all natural ingredients without the added chemicals and preservatives I try to avoid in my hair care and facial care routine.
The Shea Moisture Intensive Hydration Conditioner is wonderful because it is the 'Dry Hair Recipe' and that is exactly what my hair is! It doesn't help that the chlorine from my swim practices intensifies the dryness of my hair that much more. So after I wash my hair with an EDTA shampoo (to remove the chlorine from my hair) I always follow up with this conditioner to help bring back and retain moisture.
I think it works so well that sometimes when my hair is in crochet braids, I only need to oil my scalp maybe once or twice during that 7 week period just because the conditioner combats dry hair and potentially itchy scalp.
Lastly this product donates 10% of its sales to the Community Commerce Initiative. A truly wonderful product with a wonderful cause. So wonderful, in fact, it is hard for me to get out there to try and make my own conditioner that I can equally love as much!

Whereas my girlfriends have been visiting from Chicago final week, we made a trip to Cashiers, NC, a luxurious summer neighborhood of great outlets, wonderful homes and excellent eating places. The native historic society was sponsoring a house tour of three cottages. We had been excited to tour them. This toy was one of the most important motivations for her to pull as much as standing since there was so much to do on the higher level. She'd play with the clock, then maintain on to the home and scoot around the corner to dial the home numbers. Then she'd see the gutter with the balls on the opposite nook, play with that, then reach for some shapes to gnaw on. I preferred that she'd be shifting around and practicing her cruising and standing abilities, however nonetheless be in one place. Not to mention she was having fun with enjoying round with movable stuff that wasn't the drawer handles or the knob on the DVD player.
Listed below are some highlights of recent items and I at all times take customized requests when time permits. Set up a lint catcher on the drain out of your washing machine: See my hub on the best way to install a sink and mesh lint catcher in your laundry room. My six month girl has just been spayed six days ago, she hated the cone collar, and have become very depressed. I took it off and put her in a child grow with the arms minimize out, and a few elastic at again to go spherical each leg, she has been very pleased with this and has left the wound alone, so long as the infant grow was on.
I hope this may work later for when my siblings and I are starting our spring cleaning! We have eleven cats and they started peeing or capturing this white liquid on walls, furnitures and the ground (think about that). We kept cleaning it utilizing floor detergents but it surely just doesn't work! A few of them stopped this habit once they entered the grownup stage as soon as they saw that their mom would not urinate far and wide however the remaining 5 still does it! I actually hope this might work. Also, do you could have any concept why my cats would tear up newspapers or usually simply papers and poo on it? Thanks!
After living with the oak for just a few years, I lastly convinced my husband that every thing would feel a lot lighter and brighter with the help of a few coats of paint. Don't see your comment? All feedback are moderated and will take a second to look. Extra detailed info, by way of higher measurement, is vital to enhancing environment friendly energy use across the house, IMO. Great job explaining them!
Thanks for publishing this lens! This is a matter near and expensive to me. Having been homeless myself at a couple of cut-off dates, and having friends that still are (and not for any lack of attempting); I understand the challenges that homelessness, and poverty generally, poses. When individuals flip a blind eye to their neighbors, I'm wondering in the event that they understand how shortly they themselves might fall into the same state of affairs. A medical emergency, lack of health care-protection….and so on. could simply put of us on the road. A bad day on the office is a hundred occasions easier than a very good day on the shelter (in case you are lucky sufficient to get a mattress at one)!You offered your data in a concise, informative, and non-judgmental manner. Kudos to you!

Creative Direction
In 10 songs, This Is Fine displays a spectrum of emotions sharing stories of love, loss, hardship, hope, and overcoming obstacles.
I sat down with the band to discuss the direction of the album, lyrically, and how that could translate visually. With the album title, "This Is Fine," truly encompassing the record, we came up with the solution of a gloomy day paired with flowers, suggesting that there is always a reason to be thankful.
The record displays a forget-me-not, the state flower of Alaska, Noise Brigade's home state. On the physical packaging, on the back of the insert, are roses to represent the band's new home of Portland, Oregon. This rose is also displayed on the tour admat supporting the record.
Calling to Dejah Thoris to get behind me I worked my way toward the little doorway back of the throne, but the officers realized my intentions, and three of them sprang in behind me and blocked my chances for gaining a position where I could have defended.
Thrusting Sab Than headlong from the platform, I drew Dejah Thoris to my side. Behind the throne was a narrow doorway and in this Than Kosis now stood facing me, with drawn long-sword. In an instant we were engaged, and I found no mean antagonist.
"The Tharks were having their hands full in the center of the room, and I began to realize that nothing short of a miracle could save Dejah Thoris and myself, when I saw Tars Tarkas surging through the crowd of pygmies that swarmed about him."

text: Today I thought I'd take a minute and share a little about my boy. His name is Kaimen and he was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy about 5 years ago. He's an amazing kid with more heart and guts than any person that I've ever known. For my wife and I, watching him grow over the past 6 and a half years have been filled with some of the most rewarding and painful experiences of our lives. It's a roller coaster of emotion that I often think I can't stomach any longer. But Kaimen isn't just any ordinary boy. If there's anyone I want with me on this wild ride, it's him. So full of life, willing to take on any challenge. Rarely does he ever win with grace and can be the sorest of losers...and I wouldn't have it any other way. It's that fire and passion that drives him to keep going. This kid is a fighter in every sense of the word. Whatever he wants to do, he finds a way to get it done. Wherever he wants to go, he'll make his own way to get there....even if it's only baby steps.

West Ham United are reportedly targeting Nicolas Gaitan from Atletico Madrid following the recent arrival of Joao Mario.
According to Tuttomercatoweb, West Ham are trying to acquire the services of Gaitan from La Liga giants, Atletico Madrid.
The 29-year-old has failed to make the desired impression in Spain, having only scored four goals in 42 games with the club from the Spanish capital. However, the Argentine winger is widely regarded for the time spent with Benfica, where he amassed 253 first-team appearances, scoring a decent total of 41 goals.
During his time with the Portuguese club, the former Boca Juniors player won 11 trophies. Nonetheless, recent reports suggest that West Ham aren't the only club looking to sign Gaitan. Southampton, Everton and Swansea are all believed to be interested in the winger.
Landlord's verdict
The Argentinian would be a terrific signing for David Moyes' side thanks to his superb crossing and dribbling ability. Additionally, he's proficient at playing through balls, helping the attackers.

Creative Assembly's Total War: Warhammer has been slightly delayed in its release, being pushed to the end of May. PC gamers who were looking forward to the game can now expect to see the real-time strategy game launching on May 24th.
As reported by Blues, Mike Simpson, the creative director for Total War: Warhammer explained in the news about the delay that…
"This could be the best Total War game we've ever made. We don't want to rush it," […] "It's an enormous game and we also want to make absolutely sure reviewers have enough time to play it thoroughly before launch. Many thanks to the huge number of people who have pre-ordered and are eagerly awaiting release day. We're pulling out all the stops for you."
It is a pretty big game but it did receive a bit of flak when it was revealed that the Chaos faction would be pre-order DLC. There was some serious rage that flowed through the buttocks of gamers who were pissed to find that one of their favorite factions would require some extra financial commitment on their part. It's safe to say that the butthurt was palpable enough for Pfizer's stocks to go up by a sizable amount due to all the Preparation H that sold that day.
Anyway, in addition to announcing that Total War: Warhammer was delayed to May 24th, they also revealed the game's system requirements.
They dumped the system reqs over on the Total War wiki page where they not only reveal the minimum and recommended specs but also reveal what sort of frame-rate performance you'll get out of the game based on the listed specs. Now that's how you do a system requirement roll out.
PC Minimum Specifications:
[Expected around 15-25 FPS on campaign map and in a 1v1, 20 units vs 20 units battle, default graphics preset set to "Low"]
Operating System: Windows 7 64Bit
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 3.0Ghz
Hard Drive: 35 GB
Video Card: (DirectX 11) AMD Radeon HD 5770 1024MB | NVIDIA GTS 450 1024MB | Intel HD4000 @720P
*PC integrated graphics chipsets require 4GB ram, e.g. Intel HD series
PC Recommended Specifications:
[Expected around 45-55 FPS on campaign map and in a 1v1, 20 units vs 20 units battle, default graphics preset set to "High"]
Operating System: Windows 7/8.1/10 64Bit
Processor: Intel Core i5-4570 3.20GHz
Hard Drive: 35 GB
Video Card: (DirectX 11) AMD Radeon R9 270X 2048MB | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 2048MB @1080P
PC 60fps+ Specifications:
[Expected 60 FPS+ on campaign map and in a 1v1, 20 units vs 20 units battle, default graphics preset set to "Ultra"]
Operating System: Windows 7/8.1/10 64Bit
Processor: Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0 GHz
Hard Drive: 35 GB
Video Card: (DirectX 11) AMD Fury X or Nvidia GTX 980 @1080P
So you'll need a really high-end PC if you want to play the game on the highest settings defaulted to "Ultra" and at 60 frames per second. That Fury X and GTX 980 requirement, though… dang. That's really push the boundaries. You'll need a serious Master Rig to run the game on max.
You can look for Total War: Warhammer to go live for PC on May 24th, in case you missed it. For more info feel free to visit the official Total War website.

Let my prayer be set forth in your sight as incense, the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice. Psalm 141:2
Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen.
Evening Examen: When, today, did I sense being drawn away from God? When, today, did I feel most touched by the presence of God?
O God, make speed to save us. *
O Lord, make haste to help us.
I will cry aloud to God; *
I will cry aloud, and he will hear me.
In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord; *
my hands were stretched out by night and did not tire;
I refused to be comforted.
I think of God, I am restless, *
I ponder, and my spirit faints.
You will not let my eyelids close; *
I am troubled and I cannot speak.
I consider the days of old; *
I remember the years long past;
I commune with my heart in the night; *
I ponder and search my mind.
Will the Lord cast me off for ever? *
will he no more show his favor?
Has his loving-kindness come to an end for ever? *
has his promise failed for evermore?
Has God forgotten to be gracious? *
has he, in his anger, withheld his compassion?
And I said, "My grief is this: *
the right hand of the Most High has lost its power."
I will remember the works of the LORD, *
and call to mind your wonders of old time.
I will meditate on all your acts *
and ponder your mighty deeds.
Your way, O God, is holy; *
who is so great a god as our God?
You are the God who works wonders *
and have declared your power among the peoples.
By your strength you have redeemed your people, *
the children of Jacob and Joseph.
The waters saw you, O God;
the waters saw you and trembled; *
the very depths were shaken.
The clouds poured out water;
the skies thundered; *
your arrows flashed to and fro;
The sound of your thunder was in the whirlwind;
your lightnings lit up the world; *
the earth trembled and shook.
Your way was in the sea,
and your paths in the great waters, *
yet your footsteps were not seen.
You led your people like a flock *
by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
Heavenly Father, by signs and wonders you established your ancient covenant, and through the sacrifice of your Son you confirm the new covenant yet more wondrously. Guide your Church to the land of promise, that there we may celebrate your name with lasting praise through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Glory to the Father and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit; *
as it was in the beginning
is now and shall be for ever. Amen.
Now on the twenty-fourth day of this month the people of Israel were assembled with fasting and in sackcloth, and with earth on their heads. Then those of Israelite descent separated themselves from all foreigners, and stood and confessed their sins and the iniquities of their ancestors. They stood up in their place and read from the book of the law of the Lord their God for a fourth part of the day, and for another fourth they made confession and worshiped the Lord their God.
Then Jeshua, Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani stood on the stairs of the Levites and cried out with a loud voice to the Lord their God. Then the Levites, Jeshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabneiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, said, "Stand up and bless the Lord your God from everlasting to everlasting. Blessed be your glorious name, which is exalted above all blessing and praise." And Ezra said: "You are the Lord, you alone; you have made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them. To all of them you give life, and the host of heaven worships you. You are the Lord, the God who chose Abram and brought him out of Ur of the Chaldeans and gave him the name Abraham; and you found his heart faithful before you, and made with him a covenant to give to his descendants the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Jebusite, and the Girgashite; and you have fulfilled your promise, for you are righteous. "And you saw the distress of our ancestors in Egypt and heard their cry at the Red Sea. You performed signs and wonders against Pharaoh and all his servants and all the people of his land, for you knew that they acted insolently against our ancestors. You made a name for yourself, which remains to this day. And you divided the sea before them, so that they passed through the sea on dry land, but you threw their pursuers into the depths, like a stone into mighty waters. Moreover, you led them by day with a pillar of cloud, and by night with a pillar of fire, to give them light on the way in which they should go. You came down also upon Mount Sinai, and spoke with them from heaven, and gave them right ordinances and true laws, good statutes and commandments, and you made known your holy sabbath to them and gave them commandments and statutes and a law through your servant Moses. For their hunger you gave them bread from heaven, and for their thirst you brought water for them out of the rock, and you told them to go in to possess the land that you swore to give them.
Revelation 18:1-8
After this I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority; and the earth was made bright with his splendor. He called out with a mighty voice, "Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! It has become a dwelling place of demons, a haunt of every foul and hateful bird, a haunt of every foul and hateful beast. For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown rich from the power of her luxury." Then I heard another voice from heaven saying, "Come out of her, my people, so that you do not take part in her sins, and so that you do not share in her plagues; for her sins are heaped high as heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities. Render to her as she herself has rendered, and repay her double for her deeds; mix a double draught for her in the cup she mixed. As she glorified herself and lived luxuriously, so give her a like measure of torment and grief. Since in her heart she says, 'I rule as a queen; I am no widow, and I will never see grief,' therefore her plagues will come in a single day— pestilence and mourning and famine— and she will be burned with fire; for mighty is the Lord God who judges her."
In the evening, pray for:
- peace
- individuals and their needs
Conclude with the Lord's Prayer and/or the following Collect:
O God, whose blessed Son came into the world that he might destroy the works of the devil and make us children of God and heirs of eternal life: Grant that, having this hope, we may purify ourselves as he is pure; that, when he comes again with power and great glory, we may be made like him in his eternal and glorious kingdom; where he lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Let us bless the Lord. *
Thanks be to God!
The Almighty and merciful Lord, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, bless us and keep us. Amen.

Today I had the privilege of interviewing a local colleague, Mateja Petje, who is currently living in Delray Beach, Florida. Check out the archived podcast here at Healthy Baby Boomers Network Radio Show.
Mateja Petje, M.S, is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and a Professional Life Coach in Boca Raton, FL, who has recently embrace a host of holistic, natural and alternative methods for healing. She has more than 10 years of experience as a counselor in the mental health field, having worked at many prominent agencies in Miami-Dade and Broward County such as Switchboard of Miami, Department of Children and Families, Memorial Health Care Systems, Jewish Community Services and Chrysalis Center. With extensive background in working with families and at-risk children and adolescents, she has basically focused upon working with adult couples.
Born in Slovenia, speaking English, Slovenian and Croatian, she got her Bachelor's Degree in English and Education and worked for the Government of Slovenia as a translator for European Union. Then, after moving to the US in 1997 she was awarded a graduate assistant scholarship from the University of Miami in Coral Gables and graduated with Honors in 2003 with her Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. During her internship she worked with cancer patients utilizing holistic approaches, such as guided meditation, as well as a research assistant at University of Miami Department of Pediatrics.
Her working experience and her continual additional training is incorporated into her unique blend of Eastern and Western practices. She has studied and practices several healing modalities including yoga, hypnosis/guided meditation, and Emotional Freedom Technique ("tapping technique"). Her work is particularly effective for treating anxiety, PTSD, depression and other emotional concerns. Mateja has had great success with clients who need more than just a traditional therapy.
Mateja has special interest in working with couples and women. Along with her great capacity for compassion and being genuine due to her own struggles in life, she uses the "Imago" approach in working with couples. Based on the work of Harville and Helen Hendricks, Imago Therapy presumes that couples select an intimate partner who in one way or another resembles the characteristics of their primary caregivers.
Mateja helps clients to explore their childhood issues, emotionally charged conflicts, communication blocks and conflict resolution skills. She also helps clients who are dealing with marital concerns, divorce, infidelity, addictions, life transitions and more. At this point, she is focusing more directly upon healing – letting go of stress and tension – and returning to a sense of calm and balance and emotional peace. She provides an effective "tool box" to help clients deal with challenges in their daily living.
Mateja has put together a reading list that can be found on her website Triglavlifecoaching.com. Her autobiography, "My Journey to Self-Discovery, was ;ublished in 2010 and is available at Lulu.com."

I would like a correction to appear in the Millbrook Independent. The oldest religious organization in Amenia is the Smithfield Church--not the United Church of Amenia. The First Presbyterian Church of Amenia, which is not the same as the United Presbyterian Church, was founded in 1748, six years after the Smithfield Church, which is and always has been the Smithfield Church, founded in 1742. Thank you, Rev. Douglas Grandgeorge, pastor of Smithfield Church

8 Subtle Signals Your Hearing is Failing
It's not like you just wake up one morning, and your hearing is gone. Hearing loss happens gradually over time for most people, particularly when it comes to aging. Age-related hearing loss affects about one in three people in this country. Many of them are over the age of 75 before they notice a change. You may not realize the problem immediately even though some signs show up earlier.
The early signs of progressive hearing loss are subtle. Recognizing them as soon as possible is essential to slow down the progression of hearing loss or other health problems related to hearing loss. You can't identify the signs if you don't know what they are, though. You might have hearing loss if you have any of these eight barely noticeable indicators.
1. Ears Ringing
Okay, this isn't really a subtle sign, but it is something people tend to ignore unless it's disruptive. Tinnitus, the medical term for the ringing, is a common symptom of hearing loss.
The ringing can be periodic and only act up when triggered. Perhaps the ringing only occurs when your tired or in the morning for instance.
Tinnitus is an indicator that something else is going on with your body so it should never be ignored. Besides hearing loss, tinnitus can be induced by high blood pressure, trauma, or a circulatory problem. You won't know for sure until you consult your doctor, though.
2. You Dread Talking on The Phone
It's not hard to make excuses for phone issues like:
- I dropped my phone in water or on the ground.
- It's a new phone, and I'm just not used to it yet.
- My phone is old.
If you dislike using the phone think about the reasons why. If you have the volume all the way up and can't understand what is being said, let a friend test the phone for you. If they can hear the conversation and you can't, your hearing is the problem.
3. It Seems As if Everybody Mumbles These Days
It used to be only the kids, but lately, the news anchor, your neighbor, and your spouse all have taken to muttering when they talk to you. Could it really be true that all of a sudden everyone in your life has poor enunciation.
The more likely answer is the way you hear words is changing. One of the first signs that your hearing is changing is when talking sounds like mumbling and consonants such as "S" and "T" drop off.
4. What Did You Say?
Only after someone calls you out for saying "what?" a lot do you start to recognize that you can't hear conversations very well anymore. Very often, the people you see every day like coworkers or family are the first to notice you are having difficulties hearing. Pay attention if someone says something about it.
5. You Hear Some People Perfectly Fine But Not Others
Maybe when you are having a conversation with your neighbor everything sounds okay but when his wife starts to talk you can't understand a word. It's a common symptom of sensorineural hearing loss or damage to the nerves that send electrical messages to the brain.
Her voice is higher pitched, and that's why it isn't as clear. You might have the same problem with your grandchild or daughter. Even technology like the microwave or an alarm can throw a loop into things. Those tones are also high pitched.
6. Going Out Isn't as Much Fun as it Used to be
Even worse are the people who actually mumble. Also, being in noisy places makes understanding what people say a big challenge. It becomes impossible to hear anything when you are at dinner and people start chatting around you or the AC pops on.
7. You Feel More Tired Than Normal
It's can be exhausting struggling to understand what people are saying. You are more tired than usual because your brain is working harder to process what it hears. You might even observe changes in your other senses. If your brain is using 110 percent of its time and energy to comprehend words, what's left for your eyesight or balance? It's time to have your ears tested if your eye examination came back normal.
8. That Dang TV
It is easy to blame the TV or the service provider when you have to keep turning up the volume, but if this is going on all the time, perhaps it's time for a hearing test. It can be hard to hear people talking on TV shows when you suffer from hearing loss. For example, when the background music is playing, it makes everything sound unclear. How about the other sounds in the room like the AC or the ceiling fan? Your hearing is most likely starting to falter if you have to keep turning up the volume.
The good news is all you need to do to know for sure is a professional hearing test. If it turns out you have a hearing problem, hearing aids will get things back to normal.

Meet Chelsea Nicholson and Vanessa Stofenmacher, User Experience Design Immersive Graduates
Launching a User-Friendly Business
For years, Chelsea Nicholson and Vanessa Stofenmacher were tired of designer price markups and misleading product descriptions on jewelry. After meeting as students in General Assembly's User Experience Design Immersive course in Los Angeles, they founded their own company, Vrai and Oro, to sell the jewelry they wanted to wear themselves. "Our entire company was founded through the user experience," says Nicholson, who thought UX would be a strong complement to her business marketing education. Their wares have been featured in Vogue, Forbes, and more.

How to Ace Your Design Interview
You've polished your portfolio. You've got the interview. Now, go in prepared to impress the team — whether it's a potential peer or the head of design. In partnership with InVision, the world's leading product design platform, we've asked leaders at Nelson Cash, thoughtbot, The UX Notebook, GA, and more to share their do's and don'ts so you can ace your design interview.
Push for a Point of View
Good design is all about having a clear purpose. It's about having a strong point of view—even if you might ruffle some feathers along the way. I chatted with people who have a strong point of view in their design — people from Google, Airbnb, Slack, Dropbox, and more. I wanted to peek inside their noggins to see what drives their decisions and informs their designs. Below are a few things I learned.
UX Design Tips From Mom
After completing my User Experience Design Immersive course at General Assembly's Singapore campus, I tried to explain to my 90-year-old mother what I had been studying. I got schooled, instead. I explained to her the definition of UX design, and Mom proceeded to demonstrate her understanding by walking me through her use of UX strategies in everyday life.
Don't Frustrate Users With Gaps in Your Product Experience
We've all experienced pain points when really good software doesn't equate a really good experience. All too often, there's a breakdown that occurs outside product screens, when a product or process hits the reality of the human experience or a user fails. These points of friction are frustrating to users and jeopardize your businesses. I call these gaps mode-shift friction, and it's essential to resolve them wherever possible.

The AWS Institute for digitized products and processes is an independent body that researches new technologies and develops innovative business models, placing great value on closely combining research, innovation and entrepreneurship right from the get-go. The institute is at HANNOVER MESSE 2018 to showcase predictive quality - a preventive, data-based approach for designing and implementing quality assurance in manufacturing sectors. The AWS Institute uses artificial intelligence and machine learning methods to perform automated analyses on data obtained from quality controls and returns and thus identify correlations between product characteristics and quality. Findings are then fed into the continuous product development process, where developers are supported by an assistance system.
In contrast to predictive analysis, which only attempts to forecast future quality issues, predictive quality goes one step further. Implementing a holistic approach in which the causes of errors are analyzed and an assistance system is utilized helps to prevent errors right from the outset. The system provides recommendations for optimizing product development and displays the alternatives and economic consequences of product-related decisions. Design and quality are thereby perfectly balanced and the potential for errors significantly reduced, even before the development process has been completed. Predictive quality is primarily aimed at optimizing quality assurance in sectors with creative product design and for high-variant manufacturing.

Snow on 2 Vale Historical Buildings totals 28,080 Cubic Feet
After record breaking snow fall this winter and seeing the devastation of the fall of the historical Vale's Slipper, Mike McLaughlin and Sandijean Fuson took action by removing approx. 28,080 cubic feet of snow off of two of the Vale Historical Buildings, the 1908 Vale Hotel & 1895 Grand Opera House. McLaughlin and Fuson have been devoted to protecting these buildings and the 1914 Rex Theater ( 9,000 cubic feet) by working daily on this important task. "Mike McLaughlin and the Drexel Foundation's 20 year commitment of restoration and upgrades of installing engineered webs to the Opera House roof system, roof repairs, and replacement of a failed beam in the hotel paid off. It gave these buildings strength during the time the heavy snowfall was taking so many structures in our region," said Sandijean Fuson President of the Drexel Foundation. In early life of Vale the Drexel Hotel had the cities water tower on the top of the roof. "It gave me confidence that the hotels roof was stronger than most buildings in Vale. Inside the roofing system is a bridge truss, which supported the weight of the Cities water tower years ago. But the work of removing the snow was urgent and vital," explained Fuson.
The loss of Vale's Slipper, a cornerstone to the historic district, brings to the forefront the question what is the Public Benefit of the Restoration of the Vale Hotel and Grand Opera House? Fuson explained there are many past present and future public benefits. "The first benefit to the City of Vale was the repairs made by McLaughlin bring the buildings out of "Slum and Blight" during the 1990's. The Hotel was last occupied in the 1960's. In the 1990's the City of Vale was in a crisis owning the neglected building and with a penalty hanging over their head, due to the 1980's owners business dealings. The City of Vale was "ineligible for CDBG grants " This meant the City could not get Community Development Block Grants. No funding was available for community development project like the Senior Center, etc, so demolition of both buildings looked to be an option to the City counsel. McLaughlin agreed to purchase the buildings and take them out of slum and blight. Then city attorney David Powell thanked Mike for his commitment to historic preservation and commitment to get the City out from it's penalized status. One of the first things repaired were the missing doors & windows, and the Opera house wall. This made a visual improvement to downtown.
The Drexel Foundation began its cultural programs in 1995 which presently benefits the public by providing youth art, and culture programs, giving tours and promoting heritage education. "Cultural Tourism highlighting restored National Register Historic places has brought economic development to many communities throughout the nation. Currently, there is a huge benefit to our tours, meetings and collaborations. There has been much public input and discussion of future uses of the building driven by the needs expressed by the community." said Fuson.
What work has been done to determine those future uses? Numerous consultations, conferences, and meetings attended by the Drexel Foundation, community volunteers and community representatives such as Family Foundation FLLP classes, Wealthworks classes, included asset mapping, and study of various models for reviving Economic development in rural communities has been done. The work is not complete. During 2017-2018 the Foundation has a planned Economic use & Development Study and is working with other organizations on convening stakeholders to learn more about the shared vision for the buildings uses. The public input to date have been suggestions for micro business enterprises, youth business incubators, retail space, a copy/fax shipping center, welcome center, bakery, artist studios, inter-net business spaces, bread and breakfast, legal conference rooms, accounting, and professional office spaces.
Of course upon completion and full occupancy the Drexel Foundation shall have ownership interest in several spaces to continue and further their mission. Many specific spaces are already designated to be used as "Drexel spaces". "The entire 2nd floor of the Opera House for the Drexel Art Center, various rooms in the Vale Hotel, "the "Charles Russell Room Artist in Residency Suite", two office spaces, Film Editing suites for film programs, the conference room & Main Library, numerous storage rooms for art camp supplies, the formal prom closet, the tux room and the "shoe & coats for Youth program " storage rooms. The work by the committed board of Kathy Singer King, Sandra Tolman, Sharon Kinder, and Sandijean Fuson and groups of volunteers shall continue toward the goal of occupancy. The numerous Free Drexel programs do not have these buildings to call home yet but the art & cultural programing continues.
Many communities throughout the nation have used various solutions to save, restore & preserve historic properties. The collaborative efforts of the Drexel Foundation, the owner McLaughlin and the community to revitalize these buildings and bring life back to Main Street shall benefit the entire town of Vale and the children of the future. Other non-profits exist that have within their mission preservation of National Register Properties. Restore Oregon is an example of one of those entities that has no ownership interests in the buildings they preserve. Collaborations between non-profit and private sector in ownership is common. The Hotel & Opera House are on National Register of Historic Properties, this designation provides another layer of protection through federal laws. The Drexel Foundations engine of community spirit, volunteers, and collaborative partnerships helps move the vision of revitalizing Main Street of downtown Vale forward.
2017 looks to be an exciting year ahead for progress, preservation and culture in Vale. Mark you calendars now for the Drexel Foundation's programs:Art in Park on Flag Day June 14th 9:00am-12:00pm, August Art Camp Workshops August 7-9th 9:00am-noon, Free Talent Show August 10th 7:00pm; Art Beat the Solar Eclipse with public tours August 19th 12:00pm to 6:00pm, Crash Course in Film-making Sept 6, Children's Film Festival and Film-makers Competition Sept.-23rd, Annual Grand Opera House & Vale Hotel Tours Open House Dec. 31st 9:00am -12:00pm, Teen Film Project Spring -Summer 2017, Free Prom Dresses & tuxedos at Drexel' "Formal Closet" Spring & Fall 2017 by appointment.

NBA Shootout 2003
When you look back it is really very weird how fast time flies by. I still remember when I played NBA Shootout 2001. It really seemed like nothing was going for that edition of Shootout, and now it's time for Shootout 2003 a much improved version of Shootout but can it contend with the big boys?
I am just going to jump right into this review with one of the most positive things that came out with this version of Shootout. Shootout really has some serious depth to it. To start out on the Franchise/Career mode you have to really create a team from scratch and bring them from a summer league all the way up to the NBA. This is something that really has never been done before. Usually, you start out in the NBA and just try to create a winning dynasty. With this way you get more attached to your team because you have to make your way through the farm leagues. I really think that other basketballs games in the future may follow this path.
Ok Shootout really has a nice looking franchise mode but can the Gameplay back up the modes? Well there are truthfully two sides to this argument. I first really want to talk about the free throw system. I am really not sure what they were going for here. This has to be one of the hardest games to make a free throw on.
The second problem is the defense system. It is also mostly an offensive game. The game makes it extremely difficult when you are trying to block shots or stealing the basketball is near impossible.
On the other end of the court, besides the free throws the game does fine when you are playing offence. The computer AI works, although at some points at the game it feels like it can be a little easy, when you make a few half-court shots in a row. Although for the most part there really aren't any major complaints to say. For the most part NBA Shootout plays like you would expect a good basketball game to play.
One thing that I noticed right away with Shootout's controls was the acceptance of the analog sticks. The left allows you to move around the basketball court, while the right allows you to do different moves, and fake outs. For the most part the controls are flawless.
To be perfectly honest the sound of Shootout is really just there. The commentary is provided by Bill Walton and Ian Eagle, and the result is quite an accurate and decent commentaries.
The sound effects and crowd are really just below average. The crowd sounds like it should but doesn't get the quality of what you would hope for.
This game could have really become a top-notch game if 989 wouldn't have thrown a up an air ball on the graphics department. The character models themselves are pretty accurate but how they come out on the court is another thing. I was really disappointed so see a very jagged looking group of players.
To top it all off the player's animation just seals the deal in my mind. It really seems like they needed to spend a lot more time on the animation because it didn't work at all.
Fun Factor
The one thing that Shootout does correctly is that it's a fun game (graphics aside). This is a very nice basketball sim that has all the right modes just very poor execution on the graphics portion of the game, which could hurt the games fun factor.
This game has everything going for it until you see the graphics, which killed shootout's chance of receiving a higher mark. If 989 were to do a Shootout 2004, I would really recommend keeping the Gameplay system and starting over on the character models.

Why Go Into The Fashion Industry? And Why Start A Blog?/
Has it really already been four years since I was getting ready to pack up everything and finally move to Chicago? A dream I have only had since I was five years old running through the fountain at Navy Pier telling my parents I was made to live in this city.
It seems like yesterday, I was walking into my first class at Columbia - the thought of hating the fashion industry or failing out quickly ran through my mind. My mind began to settle when I recognized a girl I had orientation with and began reminiscing on how our summers had gone (spoiler alert she would became one of my best friends in college.) The first task our teacher gave us was to turn towards the person sitting next to you tell them what your dream brand you would want to work for was and what you liked specifically about that brand. While the dream brand to work for has since changed, I do still go back to that very same exciting feeling I had in the pit of my stomach that day to remember why I have chosen the fashion industry as a career.
Many fashion majors including myself will tell you that the fashion industry is not all that we thought it would be our very first day of college. However, it is important to note that this does not mean that I have not fallen in love with the industry. I recently have had many discussions concerning the controversial topics surrounding the fashion industry with classmates, friends, and acquaintances. While many have asked how I don't get discouraged or feel lied to by the industry I respond with, "If we don't change the industry than who will?"
That being said I do not want this blog to be like any other fashion blog. The reason is not one single person's style is the exact same nor is ones personality. I want this blog to be a place to share my knowledge of the industry whether it be with up-coming trends, new technological discoveries I have found within the industry, increasing brand knowledge of transparent retailers, and most importantly I want to share my journey through this industry with you. My dream brand may have changed but my life long dream to impact this industry has never gone away! I hope you join me on this journey to see the magic this industry truly holds.

Longwood starts fast and closes strong to upset TCU
Longwood, a Division I school since 2007, built a 16-point first-half lead and held off TCU in the final seconds to pull out an 82-79 upset Tuesday night at Daniel-Meyer Coliseum.
Lucas Woodhouse's 3-pointer with 1.7 seconds left was the game-winner, spoiling Kyan Anderson's game-tying free throws seconds before. The Horned Frogs' attempt in the final 1.7 seconds to force overtime was too late.
It's only the 16th true road win for the Lancers (1-1), who started playing Division I schools in 2004-05. They joined the Big South Conference a year ago, its first Division I affiliation.
Longwood's Tristan Carey led all scorers with 31 points. His shooting from outside (7 of 12 from the 3-point arc) helped the Lancers stretch their lead late in the first half. He scored 10 points in a span of 2:43, and Darrion Allen had five points, including a 3-pointer on an assist from Carey just before halftime.
TCU coach Trent Johnson has expressed the importance of his team remaining mentally tough, especially when shots aren't falling.
But in front of an announced crowd of 4,067, the Frogs struggled defensively early when their offense struggled. TCU made only 7 of 24 shots in the first half.
"The first half [our mental toughness] was not to be found," Johnson said. "I was really surprised by our lack of energy. Obviously, when the ball is not going down for you, you can't let that dictate how you play."
Johnson's halftime pep talk was brief as the team was back out on the court for a shoot-around with 8:00 left on the clock. Typically teams aren't back out until about 3:00 is left on the clock.
It seemed to work. TCU opened on a 13-0 run to tie the game at 40-40 with 16:22 remaining. Longwood, however, came right back with its own 5-0 run on layups from Karl Ziegler and Allen, who converted a three-point play.
After Longwood had pushed its lead back up to 52-45, TCU again rallied, getting a layup by Michael Williams, a 3-pointer from Brandon Parrish and a dunk from Jarvis Ray. Williams' 3-pointer gave TCU its first lead of the game, 55-54, with 8:43 left. His two free throws just over a minute later gave the Frogs' their biggest lead, 59-56, with 7:14 to go.
But Carey's 3-pointer with 4:22 remaining put Longwood back in front, and the Lancers never trailed again.
For TCU to even take it to the buzzer seemed like a long shot when the Lancers led by six with a minute remaining and, then again, with 25 seconds left. But Anderson's layup and Parrish's 3-pointer from the corner pulled the Frogs to within 78-77 with 19 seconds left, setting up Anderson's game-tying free throws after Longwood's Leron Fisher missed the second of two foul shots with the Lancers clinging to a 79-77 lead. Anderson was fouled on a baseline drive and sank both free throws for the tie with 7 seconds left, setting up Woodhouse's game-winner.
TCU was playing without several players, including Hudson Price and Amric Fields, who are recovering from injuries, and Devonta Abron and Aaron Durley, who are out with season-ending injuries.
Another player, Chris Washburn, is waiting to earn a transfer waiver so he can play this season after transferring from UTEP.
"I don't care who's on the floor. It doesn't matter," Johnson said. "The guys who are on the floor are capable of playing better basketball than what we played today. When they're ready, that's when they'll be on the floor."

The media is in denial about its own failingsOpinion Tim Dunlop
Political journalism will never improve because too many involved in the industry don't think there is anything wrong with it.
This depressing thought was brought home to me as I read yet another self-serving defence of coverage of the 2010 election. It was doubly depressing because for a brief shiny moment there it looked like some journalists were genuinely interested in rethinking the "paradigm".
There was, for instance, this piece by Annabel Crabb and this by Tony Wright that suggested some of their readers' frustrations were getting through. Sure, both articles were defensive and in some ways missed the point (as noted here), but at least it was the beginnings of a conversation.
But such responses are the exception not the rule. Not only have there been a swathe of articles dismissing all criticism - chiefly via prissily sensitive masthead, The Australian - there is also no evidence since the new Government was formed that journalists have changed.
The same old values of conflict and gotcha rule, with the dominant approach now being that any disagreement within the Government or between Labor and the independents is evidence of a split, a prelude to disintegration.
And then there's endless "news" pieces constructed on the basis of critical comments from the Opposition. Seriously, "the Opposition said that the Government's policy on X is bad" is not news.
Emblematic of the media's lack of self-awareness was this piece in which various media luminaries were rounded up to defend The Australian:
Senior media professionals have defended as free speech and opinion The Australian's stance on the Greens.
...The Nine Network's director of news and current affairs, Mark Calvert, said newspapers had a long history of championing a robust view.
...Calvert said it was an "odd thing to do to criticise a newspaper's opinion and editorial pages, particularly when it is open and transparent".
"Backing a party, policies and politicians as well as criticising them is healthy for a free press," Calvert said.
"As long as news reporting is impartial and fair, I can't see why a newspaper shouldn't take a stance."
Calvert made news himself during the election campaign when he publicly backed chief political correspondent Laurie Oakes's criticism of his own network after it hired former Labor opposition leader Mark Latham to report for 60 Minutes on the election.
Peter Meakin, Seven Network's veteran news director, said "politicians should expect newspapers to be robust".
"Politicians are not the best judges of bias," he added.
Getting "senior media professionals" to offer an objective view of senior media professionals is an interesting approach to take when arguing you don't do bias. It also shows that the denial problem spreads well beyond News Ltd.
You've also gotta love this line: "Politicians are not the best judge of bias in journalism." Apparently journalists are.
And sure, let's get the guy who hired Mark Latham to offer his views. Clearly a man of untarnished judgement.
However, the really corrosive myth that underlies this defence is the notion that opinion and news can be neatly separated. I don't think they believe it for a minute, but it is a convenient fiction that allows the media to wash its hands of much criticism.
Do they really think we believe that while they are "taking a stance" on the opinion pages or "backing a party, policies or politicians" that they will keep that "stance" out of their news stories? Especially when the opinion and news pieces are often written by the same people?
Such "arguments" treat their readers as idiots.
Still, let me make a key point here: the main issue is not bias.
Partisanship isn't the disease; it's a symptom of a more basic failing: bad journalism.
That's the ugly truth. Too much political reporting is simply bad. It doesn't explain things, it doesn't engage people, it doesn't entertain, it doesn't inform, it makes basic mistakes, it is unprofessional. It fails on baseline criteria, and political bias leaking into straight news is just one manifestation of that failure.
Articles like this one about Julia Gillard's ears, or this one about her lack of handbags, or front pages like this, or an article like this where basic facts are ignored to create a false understanding of what happened, aren't aberrations. They are typical. And they can only arise in a profession that has lost sight of how to do its job properly.
Until they face up to this basic fact, all the talk of "new paradigms" is just another avoidance technique.
A final point. I'm happy to acknowledge that there are excellent journalists doing excellent work. I'm also happy to acknowledge this fact of media life:
The growing gulf between the ability of media professionals to supply well resourced, well researched and high quality content and the demand of investors, increasingly from private equity, for an adequate return is at the heart of the malaise that many of us now see in the media.
...The old layers of quality control, provided by seen-it-all sub-editors ... are no longer there. This leaves newsrooms at the mercy of the infamous spin doctors, mostly ex-journalists adept at creating ready-to-publish material that digs desperate editors out of a deadline hole.
This is all true, there are genuine structural and economic problems besetting the industry.
But none of it excuses bad journalism.
Eventually, journalists have to stop defending the indefensible and find ways of fixing something that is well and truly broken.
