Many new parents call our office hoping to find out about baby teething remedies to get through what can be a very difficult time. We understand how frustrating it can be for parents to watch their child suffer. Unfortunately, teething is a necessary part of life and there will be pain associated with it.
Plain and simple, this is not a comfortable experience for a baby, they will not like it, and they are likely to be incredibly fussy while teething. However, there is hope.
There are steps that parents can take to help ease a baby's discomfort. Here are a few of them.
1. Give them ibuprofen
As long as parents give a baby the doctor recommended dose, it is safe to give a child ibuprofen. We only recommend this if the teething discomfort is severe but it certainly can be helpful. Ibuprofen is better than Tylenol because it helps to reduce inflammation and swelling in addition to reducing pain. Just be careful to use the medication only as directed by a medical professional and when absolutely necessary.
2. Use cold often
Just like ice can help to relieve muscle pain and tension in adults, ice can relieve pain in virtually everyone. This is because when ice or something very cold comes in contact with the body, it will numb the nerve endings and prevent the sensation of pain. Parents should know this and use cold frequently to help reduce teething pain.
If a baby teething ring is not handy, simply take a clean washrag, get it wet and place it in a bag in the freezer. It will freeze and become something that the baby can bite down on to help relieve their discomfort. As they do, the gums will become numb and they should begin to feel better.
3. Try a numbing gel
Orajel can be incredibly effective for reducing pain in the gums. However, it is possible to give the baby too much Orajel so be careful to only use it as directed and only a couple of times per day. Using cold first is wise.
Be careful with baby teething remedies
As a dentist, we have gotten a lot of questions from parents who read about various teething remedies online and would like to try them with their children. Many of these include using food products like honey or turmeric to help reduce the pain. We want to advise parents to be incredibly cautious about these home remedies and not to try them without speaking to their pediatrician.
Things like honey, for example, could cause a horrible allergic reaction. Likewise, turmeric could be incredibly strong and the baby could react badly to it. These remedies may be safe to try on adults but babies are incredibly sensitive and most pediatricians have a set schedule for when they want parents to introduce foods, let alone these home remedies directly on their gums. Because of that, please be careful and do not try something without speaking to a doctor first.
Remember, this will not last forever
It is important to have baby teething remedies on hand but also to know that this will pass. A baby is typically only going to be in extreme pain for a few days to a week. Afterward, they should begin to feel better. While that can seem like forever to a parent, and understandably so, in the scheme of things, it is important to remember that the teething process is going to come and go so just to hang in there.
How can you really use this information?
We help parents on a regular basis by ensuring that children are in good oral health. We can even help with baby's that are teething. Sometimes it is nice to speak with a professional to ensure that everything is happening as it should.
We can sometimes conduct a quick examination and even help children along. Request an appointment in our San Pablo dental office here: http://dstanita.com. To learn more about this and other reasons that visiting a dentist early is good for your child, call us at (510) 236-1661 for more information from Daniel S. Tanita, D.D.S.

It is the 85th year of the event, the largest outdoor festival in Europe.
Traffic problems are expected as attendees descend on the rural area.
"We're asking in a big way for the co-operation of people this year and as normal, we're asking them to plan their route in advance and to do this, they can consult with Garda.ie or npa.ie for the traffic plan," said Garda Inspector John Lawless.

In November, Mobile Mini, a leading hirer of secure storage containers and portable site accommodation, came to the aid of Cleveland Mountain Rescue Team, which needed space to store equipment during the renovation of its dilapidated garage area.
The Company provided two 20ft containers free of charge through its Community Involvement Programme, which supports non-profit or voluntary organisations, saving the charitable organisation essential funds.
To share the news of the firm's generous gesture, we distributed a press release across the Tees Valley, which received coverage in the following publications:


text:
This year will be another disastrous one for British education. The Government is incapable of understanding that true learning transcends economic short-termism. Vocational training, commercial performance, meretricious celebrity and social conformism will continue to crowd educational values out of the Government's list of priorities. Universities expect more barbarous and barbarising cuts, squandered opportunities and ignorant interference.
The one bright spot with which optimists in British education console themselves is the promised reform of the libel laws. I recommend pessimism, which usually is the only preventive for disenchantment. Politicians tend to love libel laws, which guarantee them protection against their own crimes, inanities and moral transgressions. The moguls who fund and fawn on power will help frustrate real reform: they need to keep their misdeeds secret while making fortunes out of their own falsehoods. Even the libel-law optimists, if they are realistic, hope for relatively little: restrictions on libel tourism and the restoration of the public-interest defence. These are vital reforms, but even if we get them, the result will be to return us to the barely tolerable normalcy of a few years ago. We will still have no way of denouncing politicians' propaganda, corporations' lies, celebs' excesses or pseudo-scientists' snake-oil without inviting litigation.
Even if we were to get all the measures that PEN and Index on Censorship have advocated, and for which scholars and scientists have petitioned, the reforms would not go far enough. The only good libel law is a dead one. Libel laws are iniquitous because they impede freedom. They are fundamentally anti-educational, not only because they inhibit debate but also because they take responsibility for critical reading away from the public and give it over to the courts. I want a world in which evidence alone makes stories credible - not the rumour-mongers' willingness to risk a lawsuit.
Defamation is damaging only if patrons, public, clients, employers, co-workers or friends believe it. I have been accused in print or online of many improprieties, including anti-Semitism, lawless behaviour and taking bribes from right-wing organisations. I have never thought of suing, partly because I respect idiots' right to drivel, and partly because no one with any critical acumen or relevant knowledge could believe such nonsense. No one who matters to me would believe it, as I am openly and obviously philo-Semitic and law-abiding (at least in democratic countries). As readers know, radical tendencies tug at my political eclecticism - and as for those right-wing organisations, chance would be a fine thing. Alas, no one has ever paid me except for honest work.
Of course, there are less obvious instances in which libels can damage vulnerable people. In cases involving businesses with many customers, or public personalities or organisations who need to command large numbers of followers to realise their ideals or sustain their livelihoods, malicious rumours might undermine the innocent by convincing the ill informed. The only reason, however, for the credulity of the deluded in such cases arises directly from the libel laws themselves. A vicar, say, is falsely accused of paedophilia, or a council official of corruption, or an academic of plagiarism. "If it weren't true, they'd sue," the deluded say. The libel laws send up smoke signals from unignited fires, crediting the defamers, unless and until the aggrieved go to the trouble, peril and cost of challenging them.
If there were no defamation laws, there would be no reason to believe scuttlebutt and innuendo. Every sensible member of the public would treat malicious inventions with the contempt they deserve. Well-documented accusations in reputable media would carry proportionate weight. Prurience and persiflage in blogs and rags would perish for want of a marketplace, or resume their rightful place as scurrilous but ultimately innocuous entertainments. The rise of the blog and undisciplined websites, it is often said, makes libel law more necessary. On the contrary, it makes abolition all the more urgent, in order to deprive such sources of the credibility they have gained from submission to the judgment of the courts.
Sometimes libel laws, in spite of themselves, have done indirect good. By initiating the notorious McLibel case against environmentalists' excoriation of socially and environmentally damaging hamburgers, McDonald's forced itself into revising its image and improving its own practices. The case Lord Aldington brought against Nikolai Tolstoy for tainting him with war crimes caused misery to both litigants, but drew attention to the shameful way British authorities treated the "victims of Yalta". Suing Simon Singh for his scrutiny of chiropractic claims, the British Chiropractic Association has helped us all by stimulating demand for reform of the law. These examples show that libel is a trap for hubris. Ever since Oscar Wilde brought disaster on himself by suing the Marquess of Queensberry for accusing him of sodomy, litigants have opened self-inflicted wounds.
These advantages, such as they are, hardly outweigh the iniquities. Libel laws are silly as well as evil, because they are self-defeating. The best way to protect the victims of defamation would be to abolish libel laws altogether, and thereby reinspire readers with healthy scepticism. The best defence against libel is not law but education. Critically minded readers can be trusted to judge the evidence for themselves.

VW's flagship will finally make the trip from Europe.
We've been fielding plenty of questions lately asking when we will do a review of the upcoming Volkswagen Arteon. Sadly, we've continuously had to answer with a "sorry, Volkswagen still hasn't made it available in the US." For those following the Arteon timeline, the car was introduced way back in February of 2017 as a replacement for the discontinued CC. The car then went on sale in Europe, with no mention of when it would arrive in the US.
Fast forward to February of 2018, and the Arteon made its US debut at the Chicago Auto Show. We received word that it will come in SE, SEL, and SEL Premium trims along with VW's impressive six-years/72,000-mile warranty, but there was still no word on pricing - odd, but not unheard of for a car that was supposedly arriving soon.
At this point, we were worried that VW had changed its mind, leaving the Arteon as a Europe-only model. At the US debut, VW did say we could expect the Arteon to arrive at US dealers in the third quarter of 2018, but this was even more worrying. The third quarter refers to the months of July, August, and September - we are now halfway through September, and still no Arteon.
Clearly, the Arteon is running a bit late, so we reached out to VW to see when we could expect the car to arrive in US showrooms. Jessica Anderson, Product Communications Senior Specialist for VW, said: "Arteon is currently scheduled to arrive late Fall/early Winter."
Hopefully, this means that we should see the Arteon in US showrooms by the end of 2018. However, this answer does leave open the possibility of the Arteon arriving in 2019, nearly two years after it made its initial debut in Europe. We just hope VW didn't take too long to bring the Arteon over, killing off any hype it may have initially built up.
All US Arteon models will be powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged and direct-injection TSI engine, producing 268 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque going out to front- or all-wheel-drive. Despite the long wait, we are still looking forward to getting behind the wheel of the new Arteon.

text: Submitted by Jody Mercier on Fri, 07/06/2018 - 9:59am Camp Cookie DŌ Serves up Cookie Dough and Ice Cream Creations This SummerThe best cures for a summer heat wave: a spectacular splash pad, a dip in the local pool, and best of all, ice cream. Just in time for this sweltering summer, the folks behind the popular DŌ, Cookie Dough Confections have opened a summer-camp themed pop-up shop in Soho to serve up indulgent, nostalgic, super-cool treats. Grab your treat and relax in the Adirondack chairs at Camp Cookie DŌ. Dubbed Camp Cookie DŌ, the Soho pop-up shop is part of Chef's Club Counter, taking up the neighboring storefront. The eye-catching pink exterior, trio of brightly-colored Adirondack chairs, and windows decorated with whimsical, cartoony summer treats just beg you to step inside. RELATED: The NYC Ice Cream Bucket List: 10 Must-Try Treats The tire swing beside a lake in the woods will transport you from the streets of NYC straight to summer camp. Inside the shop, you're greeted by friendly staff and reminders of long summer days in the woods at summer camp, romping in the forest or rowing across the lake. You can even take a relaxing swing (or Instagram-worthy photo) in the tire swing that hangs from the ceiling. On the menu, the nostalgia continues. All the ice cream concoctions include the DŌ blend of edible cookie dough. The "Dirty Worm" brings me back to my brother's birthdays, when he'd request a pudding-and-cookie-crumble concoction we dubbed dirt cake. The DŌ version marries chocolate pudding with chocolate ganache, cookie dough bits, chocolate soft-serve ice cream, and, of course, gummy worms. Chocolate lovers will appreciate the "Chocolatey Blob," a fudgesicle-inspired cone, which starts with a layer of chocolate fudge, topped with chocolate chip cookie dough, and fudge soft-serve, plus chocolate sprinkles. Indulge in a "Campfire Sundae" or a "Dirty Worm." The real star of the show, though, might just be the ultra indulgent "Campfire Sundae," which tasted like my childhood summer in a cup. Graham cracker crumble creates a bed for the toasted marshmallow fluff that comes next, topped with marshmallow ice cream, chocolate chip cookie dough, and of course, fudge. It's the coolest s'more ever. Plan to share this masterpiece. For a less rich and more portable option—as there's no seating area inside, just a long, high counter too high for my preschooler to reach—consider the pair of ice cream sandwiches: Chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream is trapped between slabs of chocolate chip cookie dough in "The Rule Breaker," while "The Happy Camper" uses the same ice cream and a chocolate cocoa cookie shell. Cups of traditional DŌ can also be had, as can soft-serve ice cream. All told, the cute dessert shop is worthy of a day trip during your summer staycation and perhaps a spot on our list of favorite indulgent NYC desserts. Camp Cookie DŌ is open daily through August 31 from noon-10pm Sundays through Thursdays and 11pm on Friday and Saturday.

Let me first say that I wasn't sure if I wanted to review Batman this month. As you know, if you read my review of Batman #15, I was not a fan of that issue. I didn't like it, but I do feel like I might have been needlessly hard on it in my review. But this issue is the first issue in a new arc (called I Am Bane), so I figured I'd give it a shot.
And I actually really enjoyed this issue, even if it was mostly set-up.
Batman gets word that Bane is on his way to Gotham and Batman is getting ready for him. He meets with Jason, Damian, Dick, and Duke at a weird Batman-themed fast food joint to basically tell them to stay out of it. He doesn't want anyone else to die. And that's kind of it, story-wise. Catwoman makes an appearance, Bruce has his usual back-and-forth with Alfred, and there's just a lot of foreshadowing. But it's the last page that really has me interested in seeing with this arc goes.
King does a good job of setting up the tension that we are likely to see in this arc. He does a good job of showing us what we're going to see from Batman here. This one is going to hit close to home and Batman will be overburdened in trying to stop Bane and save all of his people and protect his city. So basically, business as usual for Batman. But also he gave us that little taste of Catwoman in this issue so you know there's going to be some drama there, too.
One of the better parts of this issue was the interactions between Dick and Jason and Damian. It's always pretty good when they're all together on the page, but I thought King captured each of them really well. I thought he showed their competitive natures and their bickering and squabbling in a way that I, as a fan, have come to expect it when they're all together. The fact that it all took place in the weird Batman-themed fast food restaurant was just an added, quirky bonus.
David Finch's art is always pretty good and I thought it fit the story well enough. There wasn't much action in this issue, aside from the first few pages, and I thought he handled it fine.
It seems like Jordie Bellaire is everywhere right now. Is there a comic book that she is not coloring these days? I mean, damn. And I was really happy to see her name on the cover of this issue. Usually there isn't much variation in colors in a Batman comic. It's usually pretty dark colors, muted. Batman does most of his work at night, so it's understandable. But I thought the pops of color in the restaurant scene were refreshing. And the coloring on the last page of this issues. It was real nice. The dark shadows of the batcave and the bright red letters popping off. (Read it and you'll see – it's a nice page).
I stand by my review of Batman #15, but this issue really did bring it back around for me. I'm excited to see where the story goes with the rest of the I Am Bane story arc.
Score: 4/5

Comic 662 - Check the first door

Author Notes:
Yep, door #2. Perhaps try and "listen" first this time at the door before trying to open it. If there are people, we might want to try meeting in person to negotiate/bribe rather than scare them with Sanguine.
If we're planning on losing a syringe anyways, could try using the syringe as a lockpick first.
We have Fuse with us. We could always wait until we get inside instead of wasting the drone's utility picking (which would probably break the syringe and not work)/blooding the lock.

On a Wednesday morning this past October, a small group of Altar Guild members and St. Michael's early-morning-regulars who'd never noticed the inscription on the plate's underside rim looked at it in surprise.
The inscription is hard to read … and to photograph. (The maker's mark, in the center of the plate, is illegible.)
Presented to St. Cyprian's Chapel by B'hood of St. Andrew #1852 A. D. 1910
Before St. Jude's Chapel was St. Jude's, it was The 99th Street Branch of St. Cyprian's Chapel.
As thousands of Anglo-Caribbeans poured into Manhattan in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries looking for the stability of employment, home and community, their worship experiences were often peripatetic; it must have been disconcerting for worshippers whose liturgy has always presupposed both formality and traditional altar furnishings. Before St. Michael's actually funded the construction of St. Jude's Chapel at 19 West 99th Street in 1921, the St. Jude's congregation endured its own neighborhood migrations. Worship, Bible study and various guild gatherings took place in rented rooms up and down West 99th Street. Two floors of a brownstone were usually taken for one or two year leases: church activities took place on the lower floor and the Howard family – Rev. and Mrs. Howard and their three little boys, Floarda, jr., Sumner and Bertram – lived in three or four rooms on the floor above. The building where St. Jude's stayed longest – four years – was at 27 West 99th Street; the two rented floors were over a grocery store.
As the St. Jude's congregation grew, special services, on Feast Days for instances, took place with increasing frequency in the Saint Saviour Chapel at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine. The congregation was grateful for the elegant and airy Gothic space, but the wear and tear of carrying all the equipment for each service to the Cathedral and back to West 99th Street in all weathers was tiring for Rev. Howard, acolytes, crucifer, choir members and worshipers. When the permanent St. Jude's Chapel was actually built, it must have been – in addition to thrilling – a relief.
The St. Cyprian's Chapel offertory plate no doubt traveled all over the Upper West Side: carefully carried by some trustworthy parishioner from one sacred space to another, it was part of worship at 177 West 63th Street, in various rented rooms on West 99th Street, up at the Cathedral on Amsterdam Avenue and 113th Street, and back again at 19 West 99th Street.
Before it became part of St. Jude's history, the offertory plate was already an important part of St. Cyprian's, as the inscription makes clear.
The Brotherhood of St. Andrew was established in 1883; by the turn of the century, it was already well on its way to becoming the international fellowship of men and boys that it is now, in the early twenty-first century.
The Brotherhood of St. Andrew began as a mission to homeless men in downtown Chicago; it describes itself now, in 2017, as "a world-wide ministry to men and boys in the Episcopal-Anglican Communion" and sponsors 357 branches in Africa, Japan, the Philippines, Haiti, Great Britain, Canada and the United States. By the early twentieth century, the Brotherhood had a hefty monthly publication, St. Andrew's Cross, "a church paper for laymen, advocating definite prayer and personal service."
In the December 1905 edition of St. Andrew's Cross, an issue most of which was devoted to the Brotherhood's work throughout Canada, the editorial staff announced new chapters as part of its regular international administrative updates: St. Cyprian's Chapel had just become Chapter 1852.
The inscription on the offertory plate gives the St. Cyprian's Brotherhood of St. Andrew Chapter number: 1852.
In 1910, five years after the St. Cyprian's Chapter successfully passed its probationary phase, its members – men and boys of St. Cyprian's – gave the offertory plate as a gift to the West 63rd Street Chapel they loved.
The 99th Street Branch of St. Cyprian's Chapel was officially begun in that same year.
We don't know when the St. Cyprian's offertory plate became a permanent part of St. Jude's collection of service items … but it seems to have been a part of St. Michael's collection ever since St. Jude's was closed in 1957.
Made in 1910, the plate has been in constant use ever since. It has been cared for and cleaned by clergy and Altar Guild members of three closely connected congregations – St. Cyprian's, St. Jude's and St. Michael's – and has received worshipers' thankful offerings in support of their church for more than a century.

You may be disappointed about the outcome of the recent elections. Candidates might have been elected who hold views contrary to your own and what you feel are the best interests of our country. You're concerned about how their worldview will impose upon your liberties as an American and a Christian.
These words were written for such a time as this:
Wicked men may come to power and defy God's throne, but He still has ultimate control over their actions. All situations are under His government, yet His greatest desire is to find feeble ones, faithful ones who will listen to His voice. To them He unveils the secrets of His heart, and He tells them what moves to make. He wants them to win.
The King Eternal, Immortal, Invisible longs to bestow on His people the victor's crown. To that end He controls all situations, frustrates the moves of evil men, and reveals Himself to His own as the One Who opens and no man shuts and shuts and no man opens. – Unknown Author
There may be many changes in our government over the next two years, but remember Whose government is the final authority. If you have put your trust in Christ's death, shed blood, burial, and resurrection, you are an overcomer and a son or daughter of God. You can't allow circumstances, however positive or negative, to make you forget who you are.
This means when others complain about and disparage our newly elected leaders, you need to be praying for them. Let your life demonstrate that God is in control because His vote is the only one that counts.
I have lived a long time and the longer I live the more convincing proofs I see that God governs in the affairs of men. — Benjamin Franklin
Devotional by Pastor Jim Scudder, Jr.

If this string contains site-specific information, then standardized filtered searches would only work with a pre-defined nomenclature using keywords and/or some type of BNF or fairly rigid syntax. Keywords could be defined, with the associated values being the secondary key components (the first search component being the keyword in a "search by keyword-value pair" scenario). I would offer that there is a URN (Uniform Resource Name) working group looking into persistance and location-based naming for network resources. I believe drafts are available on their current work. Also, since this information is site-specific, does it suggest a usefulness only in the "intranet" domain, as opposed to "internet" domain? > > We want to introduce a new attribute callled Print Quality. "This indicates > a somewhat subjective evaluation of the overall printing quality: "high", > "medium", or "low" " ISSUE: Does this subsume the need for Resolution > and Speed? I do think that "print quality" might obviate the need for resolution, but probably not for speed, since alot of the time (depending on the device) they could be inversely proportional. (i.e., it quicker to print "draft" than "highest-resolution"). > > We want to introduce a new attribute called Cost. "This indicates a > somewhat subjective evaluation of the overall cost of printing at this > printer: "high", "medium", or "low". " ISSUE: Is this a good thing or not? We could also assume here that cost might be directly proportional to "print quality" mentioned in the previous paragraph.

One person is missing and four people have been seriously hurt after an oil tanker exploded off the coast of Japan. The blast and subsequent fire aboard the 998-tonne vessel Shoko-Maru sent towers of billowing acrid smoke into the sky near Himeji port, around 280 miles west of Tokyo.
Coastguard ships battled the blaze on the Hiroshima-based tanker, which has extensive damage to its central section and was listing heavily. Of the eight people aboard the 260ft vessel, seven have been rescued, four of whom suffered severe burns. The missing crew member is believed to be the captain.
The cause of the explosion is unclear, a spokesman for the coastguard said. The tanker had unloaded its cargo of crude oil and was "virtually empty" when the blast happened, according to an official from Syoho Shipping, the company that owns the vessel. Akihiro Komura said: "I heard a crew member was using a grinder to remove paint and that seems to have triggered the blast, which we believe could have occurred when the remnants of the oil caught fire.
"All the crew members are Japanese nationals. We have confirmed seven out of the eight are alive and one, believed to be the captain, is still missing." News of the accident caused Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to interrupt a debate in parliament. "In waters off Hyogo (prefecture), a tanker has exploded and is currently in flames," he said.

David Kelley on Creative Confidence
A touching talk by David Kelley on what we miss out on when we split the world into two camps...creative and analytical. He gives a beautiful example of what can happen when we move past labels and teach those whose confidence has been squashed to trust their instincts, build self efficacy and encourage innate creativity.

Southport Engagement Session - Heather and Matt
If you're down at the Carolina cost and you're anywhere near Southport NC you should stop by and check out this charming little town. Known by many as a ferry port to Bald Head Island. It can hold it's own for having a presence that has become special to many couples.
I met Heather and Matt in Southport to start their engagement session. This city is particular special to them as it's the location that Matt proposed. We reacted the proposal so they'd have similar special moments to remember it all and to show their kids one day.
Once we finished up in Southport, we headed up to Wrightsville Beach NC and then downtown Wilmington NC. Matt loves his new sports car, so it was a must to do a cool portrait or two with it.

Hello Acting Manitou family! Albee bunk counselor Emma here. Yesterday was yet another fun-filled day; after our usual round of warmups and electives, we switched things up and had a camp-wide scavenger hunt before lunch. The campers were grouped up according to cast and scoured the campus to search for such things as tiki torches, pink flamingos, or even a high five from Steve. At the end of the hunt, the casts of Merchant of Venice and Pippin were crowned victorious, which meant that they got to be first in line for lunch that day! A coveted prize to be sure.
Rehearsals are really starting to come together, with every show working hard to make their show as good as it possibly can be before Show Day finally arrives. Campers are just about off-book and are so eager to share their show with the community in just over one week.
During dinner time, the Strawberry Picking elective group baked delicious Strawberry Buckles for the entire camp to enjoy. Big shout-out to them for making such a yummy dessert for all of us! After that, we all came together for everyone's favorite talent show, Enkoodabaoo. There were a variety of acts this session; some campers decided to perform a song or dance, and some also shared wonderful excerpts of their self-produced musicals, plays, or books. It was so fun to see everyone support their friends last night. As a camper, Enkoodabaoo was always my favorite activity, because it really highlights how supportive, inspiring, and talented this community really is.
After everyone hugged and congratulated their friends, we powered down and headed back to the bunks to rest up for another full day.
That's all for now!
-Emma Rimmer

Sitting on our beachfront verandah, minding our own business, we are roused by an strange birdcall. Forever hopeful, I glance up into the neighbouring tree and spot a pair of hornbills happily jumping from branch to branch. I am off with a squawk of my own and my camera before James can say "bird watcher".
I am not a genuine binocular carrying birder but I do love my feathered friends. And part of the allure of the Thai island Ko Phayam is its population of hornbills. That and the fact that they grow my favourite nut, the cashew nut here!
Ko Phayam is situated to the south west of the Thai mainland, close to the Myanmar border. Less than an hour's speedboat transfer from Ranong. There are no cars on the island, so the transport to our resort from the pier is on motorbike taxi. No, not a tuk tuk but actually on the back of a motorbike! One for James, one for me and one for our luggage! A first for us and one I will not be telling my motorbike hating mother about!
Our resort is on the lee side of the island. And we have hit the jackpot, our room is right on the front overlooking the sandy beach. I fondly imagine being lulled to sleep by the sound of the waves. Not so; at night the island's large frog population serenade us. Last night I mastered their sounds; "France" said quickly with an American accent interspersed with "Ranong". Then in the wee hours when the partying frogs turn in, the cicada start. But yet we love it! And the waves can still be heard over nature's racket!
Apart from the hornbills and frogs we have squirrels, sea eagles and other sea birds here. And I must also add a large population of friendly street dogs and cats. All of whom I've found to be more interested in company than food. I noticed the majority have been neutered and when Google and I researched the matter I found this is part of a wonderful scheme initiated by All for Villages to reduce the numbers and thereby suffering of street dogs and cats.
So if you want to capture the mood of Ko Samui in the '70s. Can survive without your air con and hot water for a few days, spoil yourselves and visit Ko Phayam. And keep an eye out for those hornbills!
How to get to Ko Phayam from Khao Sok
James favourite app Rome2Rio failed him on this. But his mate Google and a fellow travel blogger told us about the bus station at Takua Pa. This is where buses from the east coast and the west coast meet up. We caught a passing Phuket bus at Khao Sok and got off at Takua Pa and then caught a bus onto Ranong. Buses to Ranong go every hour in the morning. The two bus trips for both of us costing AUS$20. We did notice at the bus station you could buy a bus/ferry ticket straight to Ko Phayam. But by then we had arranged to stay at Ranong. Do not stay in Ranong, it is the armpit of Thailand. Full of large half built modern ruins, very creepy. Go straight to the island!
Tips for Ko Phayam
Speed boats run regularly to Ko Phayam from Ranong, and it is cheaper to buy the tickets online than at the dock. We bought a return passage for the two of us for AUS $55. It says it takes 30 mins but we found it took closer to an hour.
There is lots of accommodation on Ko Phayam. We stayed at PP Land Beach Eco Resort in a Beachfront Front Bungalow and we would thoroughly recommend it. We found it on Agoda, AUS$31 a night room only. The food is excellent, there is wifi in the reception area but electricity is a bit of a sore point (on the whole island). There is no hot water, or air con but we had a fan and sea breezes. The windows are screened but not the glass doors, so do have mozzie spray with you or you can use the mosquito net.
If you are a keen bird-lover do check out my story on the best bird park I've ever visited Parque das Aves.

Neither conscientious physician nor fulltime investigator can keep currently informed of significant contributions to the huge clinical and research literature centered about the liver. The reasons for this information gap are many: partial answers to a single problem may appear in widely diverse journals; items pregnant with clinical implications are submerged in nonclinical publications; much information is outdated before publication; and many articles simply have to be read to be ignored. Increasing the number and size of journals corrects none of these deficiencies, textbook revisions rarely offer new information or insights, and topic-oriented symposia must ignore major areas of necessary

Layers of Defense
Layers of defense include everything from cloud-based DNS and web traffic filtering to software agents running on PCs that automatically detect and prevent malware and ransomware in real-time.
Rapid Recovery
We'll make sure we have recovery systems in place to meet your recovery time objective. For most companies, that objective is measured in hours – not days. We do it by using imaging software that allows us to restore a full image of your server within a couple hours. Or, even better, a high-availability solution that provides automatic failover. Your employees keep working – not even aware there was a problem with one of the network servers.
Network Security
We'll help you lock down access to your network, both internally and remotely. We can improve your perimeter security through firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention systems, network auditing, and periodic vulnerability scanning.
Physical Security
We can help you design an office or IT server room the prevents unauthorized access. We work with a national leader in cloud-based key card security systems.
Data Security
Modern server hardware, coupled with Microsoft Windows Server, allows us to encrypt your stored data stored at rest.
Email Security
We can help configure a multi-factor authentication solution that raises the bar for the Bad Actors. Hacking someone's email account becomes far more difficult. Additionally, we offer encryption solutions that prevent email from being intercepted in transit or while stored in your Inbox.
Cloud Security
We will help to implement multi-factor authentication for your cloud-based applications to prevent being compromised with an employee's stolen credentials. We also offer backup solutions from a variety of cloud-based applications. Additionally, we offer a wide range of cloud-based security products that are affordable and effective, such as Cisco Umbrella, Malwarebytes for Business, Symantec.cloud, and Microsoft Advance Email Security.
Compliance and Auditing
If you are in a regulated industry, such as banking or healthcare, we can assist with your compliance requirements. We can help implement systems and write supporting policies and procedures that meet HIPAA and FFEIC guidelines. For companies that are not federally regulated, but still store sensitive private information, such as public accounting firms, payroll companies, and financial planning firms, we can facilitate the adoption of best practices for network security and review and improve your policies and procedures.
Without the proper measures in place, a successful ransomware attack can lead to extended downtime and reputational risk that can result in lost customers and revenues. We'll help you detect and prevent a successful attack. But we'll also help you be prepared for rapid recovery if necessary.
Phishing Scams

As teachers, we are accountable for many things and to many people. As we start this next school year, it is important for us to keep children's learning at the heart of our planning and conversations.
To watch children at play is to watch them learn. As teachers, we notice children's play for what it reveals about what children know about the material world and the social world around them. To some, these may seem like simple tasks: to play and to notice. But such a view glosses over the layers of complexity found inside children's play and in the sophisticated work of teacher noticing to inform choices about where to nudge children next.
As a teacher of children ages 3-8 for the past 18 years, it never ceases to amaze me how many people view play as a bad word in the classroom. Thus, as teachers, we must do more than create spaces for play in our classrooms, we must do more than know how to engage children in learning through such play, we must also be able to talk about play to various audiences in ways that justify its importance for children's social, language and conceptual development. I believe the new Common Core Standards (starting in Kindergarten) provide an excellent opportunity for us to weave our advocacy for play into conversations about the kinds of learning contexts that best support young children's growth as learners.
When we look at the expectations for learning that come with the new Common Core Standards, there is an increased focus on conceptual development and practices (habits) of learning. It is ever more important for children to develop the practices of speaking precisely, of using persistence to struggle with a task over time, to reflect on and revise their thinking, to collaborate with others, to build models and express them in different ways, to connect ideas and ask questions in order to challenge the thinking of others, to find connections between more than one context of learning, and to be inspired to create and discover.
In order for children to practice such approaches to learning, they must play. To play is to explore, imagine, design, test, reflect, revise, talk, connect, create. This is the social world of children and it is here where they learn to negotiate space and ideas, where they learn to notice and wonder, where they realize their own agency to create something new in the world.
This year I have the pleasure of being a Resident Teacher at Children's Museum of Pittsburgh. As part of my work, I co-facilitate opportunities for children to play with raw materials. Then, with my colleagues, we watch what children do and say inside their play. As we notice, we take notes, talk, find new ways to frame learning spaces and think of new materials to introduce. We listen and find new layers of questions.
And we don't start with expensive materials or overly-structured spaces. We start with an open floor and a pile of recycled materials: pieces of cardboard, plastic and paper, fragments of thread, sections of aluminum foil, old buttons and displaced parts.
One teacher commented after our first session, "I thought they'd be bored," but we have found that children from age 3 in preK to age 8 in grade 2 have all been highly engaged in this open-ended exploration of materials.
We are learning that the types of questions we ask matter significantly to how children engage with and talk about materials. We know not to ask: "What is it?" or "What are you making?" because these questions close down possibilities for language and imagination. We have learned to ask "What do you notice?" and "What do you wonder?" to create a space for naming and a space for asking. We have learned to create scaffolds for the "What do you notice?" question for our younger students, such as "What do you see?", "How does it feel?", "What does it look like?" When children respond to such questions with "It's a bed" or "It's a TV" or "I'm doing water," we bring the conversation back to the material: "What makes it a bed?" When children point to a part of what they are calling a bed and push the material down, we give them words: "It's soft and squishy... what else?" If they have trouble using those words in other contexts, we use sign language for those words to bring them back to the tactile experience of touching the materials. When we notice children playing alone, we connect children to other children: "Can you find a friend who is also working with a material that is soft and squishy?"
Inside contexts of play, children find their own intentions for their work, they define their own purposes. "I'm making a sculpture" - "This one bends and this is pointy" - "We are playing house, we have this room, this room and this is a big room" - "I twisted it and put it into his straw": All of these layers of work and talk happen alongside each other and inform the collaborative and social learning of the space. Inside this space, this context of play, is where children produce their own meanings.
Without this-- in spaces that segment children's learning by discipline or skill, or overly define tasks for their work, or otherwise structure spaces away from play-- children are denied opportunities to grow conceptual understandings and the language to express such understandings. Such understandings are the basis for human agency and expression. Play is what allows children to create their own constructs in and for the world. When I recently asked a group of 6-year olds "How can it be a good thing to not know exactly what you are doing?," one of them replied: "Because then you can imagine something."

H&M New Line Includes Clothes Made Out Of Plastic
H&M is the trendy clothing store that everyone (and we mean everyone including your mom and grandmother) has visited at least once. You may not have known but H&M can be very eco-friendly. They have launched their Conscious Exclusive collection, made of at least 50 percent sustainable or recycled materials. This isn't a new line for the clothing brand the line debuted in 2010.
One of the gowns in the collection modeled by supermodel, Natalia Vodianova, was manufactured from recycled plastic. Vodianova spoke with Glamour magazine and walked them through her favorite pieces.
"I'm in love with the pleated evening gown made from recycled waste," she says, referring to the dress created from Bionic fabric, made of recovered shoreline plastic, such as bottles.
The collection includes more than just gowns, there are accessories, bags, men's clothes and for the first time selections for children. The accessories include a fishnet bag made entirely from recycled shoreline waste, as well as quirky and elegant earrings made from recycled glass and plastic. This collection looks like a line that everyone can rock. Pernilla Wohlfahrt, H&M's Head of Design and Creative Director said the mission for the Conscious Exclusive collection is,
" ...we thought not only about the look of the pieces, but also how they feel and sound. It's a collection to please all our senses, and also our desire to be sustainable in everything we do."
This collection is very important to have at this time when just in 2014 84 percent of unwanted clothes and footwear in the United States went to a landfill or an incinerator.
You can get the Conscious Exclusive collection in stores and online April 20th.

Senior Wrestlers Lead No. 11 Sun Devils to 28-18 Defeat of Bakersfield
Feb. 9, 2003
TEMPE, Ariz. - The senior class of 2003 went out in style Sunday as the No. 11 Arizona State wrestling team defeated Pac-10 opponent Cal State Bakersfield, 28-18, in front of 566 fans at Wells Fargo Arena. The Sun Devils took and early lead that they never relinquished and totaled three wins by technical fall and another by fall to build bonus points towards the win. ASU is now 11-6 on the year (4-1 Pac-10) while CSUB slipped to 6-7 (3-4 Pac-10).
Adam Chavira (Sr., Parker, Ariz.), Dana Holland (Sr., Glendale Heights, Ill.), Eric Larkin (Sr., Tucson, Ariz.), Rocky Smart (Sr., Pleasant Grove, Utah), Curtis Owen (Sr., Coeur D'Alene, Idaho) and Kellan Fluckiger (Sr., Preston, Idaho) saw their final dual at home with five of the competitors taking to the mats. Smart was the only senior unable to compete today.
The dual started at 165 where No. 8 Nick Frost (Jr., Tucson, Ariz.) staked the Sun Devils to a 5-0 lead after scoring a 22-7 technical fall over Christian Arellano. Owen followed at 174 with a 16-6 major decision that pushed the ASU advantage to 9-0. Ron Renzi (Jr., Burke, Va.) came up at 184 and took the early lead, but was unable to hold on, dropping a 9-6 decision and making the team score 9-3.
Ryan Bader (Fr., Verdi, Nev.) came out on fire in the 197 bout and ended the match just under five minutes in after building a 15-0 lead to win by technical fall. No. 4 Fluckiger followed Bader with a tech fall of his own, 21-5, over Chad Traxler. Fluckiger had to battle, however, after nearly getting pinned at the end of the second. He was ahead 12-0 before a reversal almost stuck him on the mat, forcing him to fight off the pinning attempt for 15 seconds.
After a small break to honor the program's alumni in attendance, Chavira faced No. 13 Erfren Ceballos. Unfortunately for the Sun Devil senior, his match was cut short as the nationally ranked Ceballos pinned him at 2:16. With the score at 19-9, the Roadrunners added another six points as Matt Sanchez pinned Aaron Suzuki (Jr., Flagstaff, Ariz.), who was wrestling up a weight, at 2:24.
No. 5 Holland ended the CSUB momentum with a 12-9 decision at 141, holding on to three-point leads at the end of each period for his 12th win in a row. Larkin, undefeated and ranked No. 1 in the nation, made short work of his opponent by pinning him at 2:20 to give ASU the 28-15 lead. Chris Smith (Fr., Gilbert, Ariz.) came in at 157 and took a 2-1 lead into the second period, but was unable to hold the advantage. He lost, 8-3, setting the final score at 28-18 for the Sun Devils.
The final duals of the 2003 season take place next weekend when ASU travels to Fresno State and Cal State Fullerton. The Sun Devils and Bulldogs meet at Noon Feb. 16 before ASU heads south to Fullerton to meet the Titans at 7:30 p.m.

By Lee Hsin-Yin, CNA staff reporter Although Taiwan does not have a team playing at the 2018 World Cup in Russia, the country continues to play an important behind-the-scenes role in Moscow and at other major sporting events around the world.Thanks to a wide ranging marketing campaign targeting sports events, Taiwan has become a major exporter of high quality products - from sports gear to merchandise or services - according to the Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA)."We have focused more intensively on sports marketing in recent years because it is more business-to-customer (B2C) oriented and can better boost Taiwan's image," TAITRA President and CEO Walter Yeh (葉明水) told CNA.Unlike traditional TAITRA campaigns, which focus more on trade fairs and matchmaking events, sports marketing reaches potential buyers directly, he said.Yeh said Taiwan is very strong on the production side, and although Taiwanese brands are not directly on show at the World Cup, because they are upstream suppliers to big brands, made-in-Taiwan products are everywhere on the football field.A good example would be the "smart garments" made by Far Eastern New Century (FENC) textile company, which tracks athletes' body condition to optimize training and performance, he said.A World Cup licensee There is also a Taiwanese presence outside the arena, as Wagon International Co., one of World Cup's licensees, produces gifts and novelty items such as pins and 3D mini trophies.With a wide range of product lines, TAITRA relies on effective marketing strategies to promote the "Taiwan brand" to the world through sporting events, said Raymond Chen (陳英顯), head of the council's Strategic Marketing Department.In addition to helping Taiwanese companies have their products used during games, there are promotional strategies to make Taiwanese products more visible, including event sponsorship, Chen said.For instance, TAITRA has helped the "Taiwan Excellence Award," a selection of innovative and added-value made-in-Taiwan products, to co-sponsor the Berlin Marathon for the past four years.It cost hundreds of thousands of euros to sponsor the event, but it means merchandise that has received the award can be showcased at the event's pavilions, Chen said.At the 40-kilometer mark in the marathon, there is also an arch decorated with the Taiwan Excellence logo that every runner sees, he said.However, such sponsorship exposure is not an effective approach for big events like the World Cup or the Olympics, which would cost "hundreds of millions of New Taiwan dollars," Chen said.More indirect campaigns have been adopted for such major international events, Chen said, adding that a short animation film featuring Taiwan Excellence products is being broadcast on German TV channel Sport 1 during the World Cup, and has so far been seen by 65 million viewers.During the World Cup the magazines GameStar, GamePro, Giga and PCWelt in Germany and have offered lucky draws with prizes that include laptops and Taiwan-Germany air tickets, attracting tens of thousands of participants, Chen said.Countries like Germany, the United States and Japan are target markets for Taiwan to promote high value-added products, Yeh said, adding that TAITRA is also focused on the markets of Southeast Asian countries, in line with the government's New Southbound Policy, to elevate Taiwan's presence in the region.There are other approaches, such as agreements on government procurement (GPA), he said, through which Taiwan sells goods or services to foreign governments to support sports events.Next focus: Tokyo Olympics For example, TAITRA is looking at business opportunities at the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics in 2020, Chen said, explaining that a delegation visited Japan as far back as 2015 to match Taiwanese businesses with Japanese importers.A total of 18 Taiwanese companies took part in that trip, including machinery company Nan Shiuh Enterprise and Tai-i Electric Wire & Cable, and have generated orders worth US$46.04 million as of July 6, Chen said.For instance, Nan Shiuh won a bid for stainless steel trash cans, to replace those on the streets of Tokyo and Osaka, he said.Chen said TAITRA continues to seek Olympics business opportunities related to information technology for Taiwanese companies, such as LED displays, security surveillance systems and uninterruptible power system providers.Yeh said Shuttle Inc., which produces facial recognition systems, a technology capable of identifying or verifying a person from a digital image or a frame from a video source, could also be used at the Tokyo Olympics.The company is looking to have its system installed at train stations across Japan to enhance safety for the event."We need to be very specific about what we are good at and introduce only the most competitive companies," Chen said, adding that another business delegation will visit Japan in October.Chen said Taiwan also has an advantage over rivals in services like public bike rentals and real-time bus arrival systems, which TAITRA is seeking to introduce to the Olympics in Japan.Strong in Halal business Another sector in which Taiwan is relatively strong is Halal businesses, Chen said.According to the Halal Japan Business Association, business opportunities for Halal-certified food could reach 150 billion Japanese yen (US$1.3 billion) during the Olympics since a surge of Muslim tourists is expected.Chen said local food manufacturers, including those making porridge and fried chicken, have shown an interest in finding business-to-business partners in Japan.Promoting products made in Taiwan not only makes money but also helps improve the country's image, Yeh said."When it comes to Taiwan, most Japanese perhaps think of night markets and foot massages, but that is not enough, and we need to make the world more aware of our economic strength," he said.

Did you have any objections with the controversial story line of DCR ?
No! I had no problems in signing this film. When a producer like Sai Korrapti says yes to a project, why would I have any doubts. DCR is a clean family entertainer told in quite an interesting way.
What are the major highlights of the film ?
M M Keeravani's music, and the performance of the entire star cast are the major highlights of this flick.
What was the best compliment that you received for this flick ?
After watching the first copy, Sai garu praised me immensely, and said that I had done a wonderful job in the film.
What kind of films do you want act in the future ?
I want to have an image like Aamir Khan, and would love to do family entertainers.
What about action films then ?
We have so many heroes to do action films. Jokes apart, I need some time and more films to do such roles.
Who are your favorite actors ?
I love Nagarjuna and NTR. The day I saw Ninne Pelladutha, I became Nag's fan. I love the way NTR has come up in life, and take it as a huge inspiration.
What are your future projects ?
My next film, Lakshmi Rave Maintiki is almost complete. Avika Gor is paired alongside me in this film which is also a family entertainer.

There is the possibility of further fires on the Island of Gugh in the Isles of Scilly after Monday's blaze due to the forecast of strong winds in the coming days.
The fire broke out in the later part of Monday afternoon after the strong winds from storm Ophelia reignited a controlled fire on the island which had been carried out approximately 72 hours beforehand by the Isles of Scilly Wildlife Trust.
The Wildlife Trust were carrying out scrub clearance of invasive non-native pittosporum from the heathland and gorse removal from the paths.
St Agnes fire crew were in attendance and were successful in halting the spread of the fire. The crew then continued to monitor the fire through the night.
A fire break around the island's 2 properties was set up to protect them. There was no one living on the island at the time of the fire.
On Tuesday morning a crew from St Mary's, together with 4 members of the Wildlife Trust, joined the St Agnes crew and set up a water reservoir at the bar and spent some time walking the headlands damping down small pockets of fire that had spread into the peat soil.
In a statement released to Radio Scilly from the Isles of Scilly Fire and Rescue Service it was stated that "Unfortunately it seems the fire lay dormant and subsequently reignited following the high winds from Storm Ophelia, affecting a large area of north east Gugh."
The statement later added: "Strong winds are forecast over the coming days so there is a possibility of further visible outbreaks of fire. The Fire and Rescue Service are monitoring the situation and have put in place precautionary measures should re-ignition occur."
