Redefining what it means to be a brass band, these six talented individuals have created a unique sound and energy that resonates worldwide with viral success (40 million views and counting), launching a career headed toward untold heights. With a mission to capture the energy of a rock band and fuse it seamlessly with the dance-ability of an EDM DJ, the band started out performing on the streets of New York. After years of exploring a variety of musical directions and styles, Lucky Chops realized it had created something very powerful that needed to be pursued. As attention grew, the group appeared as the house band for a season on MTV's hit talk show "Girl Code Live," gaining Lucky Chops a wider audience who quickly learned that a brass band from New York had the same musical and magnetic pull as their favorite performers.

When Lady Jane Wilde learned that her son Oscar's latest play had the provisional title 'A Good Woman', she wrote to express her disapproval: 'I do not like it- "A Good Woman". It is mawkish. No one cares for a good woman. "A Noble Woman" would be better,' she insisted. Oscar renamed it Lady Windermere's Fan. Whatever about the fictional Mrs. Erlynne, Jane was a very noble woman indeed: a poet, an essayist, an accomplished linguist, a wit, a beauty, a very loving wife and mother, a campaigner for liberty and for women's rights, and an enduring heroine in her native Ireland. Oscar admired her considerable intellect and her appetite for life. She had a profound influence on his writing and his character, and through her example, he understood that women could be just as creative and intelligent as men.
Young Jane Elgee was exceptionally bright and eager to learn, but the denial of a formal education to women left her dependent on her own resources. In an interview published in Hearth and Home towards the end of her life, she recalled her studious nature: 'I was always very fond of study, and of books,' she said.
My favourite study was languages. I succeeded in mastering ten of the European languages. Till my eighteenth year I never wrote anything. All my time was given to study.
Although hailed in an obituary in The Times as 'the most ardent and hot-headed of nationalists', Jane admitted to the interviewer from Hearth and Home that, until her early twenties, she was 'quite indifferent to the national movement'. Her rebellious nature is evident in the distance she moved from her staunchly unionist family. 'Nationality', she claimed in a letter to the editor D.J. O'Donoghue, 'was certainly the first awakener of any mental power of genius within me, and the strongest sentiments of my intellectual life'. The impetus for her decision to write for The Nation, the organ of the Young Irelander movement, was the death of Thomas Davis, aged thirty, from scarlet fever. Regarded by many as the most talented and passionate of the Young Irelanders, his loss was a terrible blow. In Ancient Cures, Charms, and Usages of Ireland, Jane described him as 'an incarnation of passionate genius--the most powerful of the poets, the most brilliant of the essayists'. When editor, Charles Gavan Duffy invited contributions from sympathetic readers, the most eye-catching came from Jane, who wrote as Speranza and signed her letters John Fanshaw Ellis.
The first poems from the pen of Speranza were translations of suitably rousing verse from Russian, Turkish, Spanish, German, Italian and Portuguese, but she soon gained the confidence to write poetry of her own. According to Wilde's biographer Robert Sherard, Jane declared: 'Once I had caught the national spirit, all the literature of Irish wrongs and sufferings had an enthralling interest for me, then it was that I discovered that I could write poetry'. In his memoir Four Years of Irish History, Duffy recognised in Jane 'the spirit of Irish liberty embodied in a stately and beautiful woman. For him, his new correspondent's 'little scented notes, sealed with wax of a delicate hue and dainty device, represented a substantial force in Irish politics, the vehement will of a woman of genius'. Alexander Martin Sullivan took over at the Nation in 1855, and described in his New Ireland how 'her personal attractions, her cultivated mind, her originality and force of character, made her a central figure in Dublin society'.
During the famine year of 1847, Jane's words had a galvanizing effect: 'a nation is arising from her long and ghastly swoon', she declared in 'To My Brothers'. In 'The Voice of the Poor', she railed against the horror, writing 'before us die our brothers of starvation'. In 'The Famine Year', she condemned the arrival of 'stately ships to bear our food away'. In 'The Exodus', she lamented the 'million a decade' forced to flee. Her most popular composition was 'The Brothers', a rousing ballad eulogising Henry and John Sheares, one a lawyer, the other a barrister, both United Irishmen hanged for their part in the rising of 1798. In tone and theme it resembles her son's Ballad of Reading Gaol and it was taken up by the street balladeers of Dublin.
As Ireland headed inexorably towards insurrection, Jane became increasingly provocative. Her unsigned editorial 'Jacta Alea Est'(the die is cast), an unmistakable call-to-arms, prompted the suppression of The Nation. When Duffy revived it after the failed rising of 1848, Jane wrote a poem to mark the occasion but she had lost her fire. Offered a page devoted to 'feminine contributions', she quipped 'it probably would be the only page left unread'. She had no time for gendered writing.
Throughout her life, Jane was bitter in her condemnation of the neglect of women. In April 1850, harnessing her finest revolutionary rhetoric, she raged in The Nation:
Women truly need much to be done for them. At present they have neither dignity nor position. All avenues to wealth and rank are closed to them. The state takes no notice of their existence except to injure them by its laws.
Yet, she was contradictory in her approach. While she campaigned vociferously for women to be granted access to education and the professions, and welcomed progressive legislation, she also believed a loyal wife should accommodate her husband's indiscretions, provided he was a genius like Oscar's father, William Wilde.
William's untimely death deprived Jane of the comforts and privileges extended to the wife of an eminent man and his profligacy obliged her to move to London. Within months, she was contributing wide-ranging, learned articles to the Pall Mall Gazette, The Burlington Magazine, The Queen, The Lady's Pictorial, The St. James's Magazine, and Tinsley's Magazine. She wrote several learned, humorous and eminently readable books, the last of which, Social Studies, contains essays exploring her distinct take on feminism.
Jane's progressive, albeit slightly erratic, views on the position of women in society were uncompromisingly frank and she injected much of the revolutionary fire she had harnessed in the pursuit of Irish nationalism into her arguments for gender equality. In 'The Bondage of Women', contained in her book Social Studies, she expressed despair at the universal disregard shown for the intellect of women: 'For six thousand years,' she wrote, 'the history of women has been a mournful record of helpless resignation to social prejudice and legal tyranny'. She finished with an exceptionally powerful passage:
Genius never yet unsexed a woman, or learning or culture ever so extended; but the meanness of her ordinary social routine life, with all its petty duties and claims, and ritual of small observances, degrades and humiliates her, for it deprives her of all dignity, and leaves her without any meaning in God's great universe.
In 'A New Era in English and Irish Social Life', published in Gentlewoman in January 1883, she hailed the Married Women's Property Rights Act of 1882 as 'an important and remarkable epoch in the history of women'. Under its terms, women obtained a legal identity permitting them to enter into contracts to buy or sell their own property. In response, Jane expressed relief that a woman would no longer enter marriage 'as a bonded slave, disenfranchised of all rights over her fortune'. Yet, bitterly aware that progress followed millennia of neglect, she cried in Social Studies: 'We have now traced the history of women from Paradise to the nineteenth century and have heard nothing through the long roll of the ages but the clank of their fetters'. In an astute summation of the hurdles that remained, she wrote:
Women have been so long politically non-existent that they almost tremble to assert they have any rights apart from their husbands. They require much training in habits of self-assertion and self-reliance, and full knowledge of their newly acquired legal rights, in order that they may become worthy of the nobler life of freedom.
Again in Social Studies, she campaigned vociferous for women to be granted greater access to formal education, insisting:
It is impossible to believe that woman will be less attractive because educated, less tender and devoted because learned, less loving because she can attain the high station, honour, dignity and wealth, which hitherto only marriage could confer, by her own unfettered intellect and genius.
Jane, a visionary idealist, often felt hopeful rather than despondent when confronted with inequity, believing that righteous thinking and courageous action would lead inevitably to change. Her optimism shines through in this passage from Social Studies:
Now, for the first time in the history of the world, a path is opening to female intellect, energy and talent, and, henceforth, women, perhaps, may lead in the learned professions, take their part in home government, form ministries to organise the code of female rights, and claim the highest university honours in rivalry with men.
Marking her death, on 3 February 1896, a sympathetic obituary in The Athenaeum declared: 'Under the mark of brilliant display and bohemian recklessness lay a deep and loyal soul and a kindly and sympathetic nature'. The Freeman's Journal lauded her as 'almost the last of that brilliant circle of poets and writers who, fifty years ago, gave to the "Young Ireland" movement a world-wide celebrity'. The Virginia Enterprise described her as 'a brilliant woman who had contributed much to literature and social life in England and Ireland', and paid tribute to her as 'a confirmed woman's rights woman'.
Wilde's Women by Eleanor Fitzsimons was published on the 16th October 2015

Stories make the world go around.So when Blogadda asked whether I would like to write a story with my daughter around the new Colgate space adventure packs ,I was excited.
My daughter loves making 3d puzzles,drawing and telling stories about the characters she draws.
That's why Colgate innovative adventure packs are perfect to keep her happy.
We received 3 Family packs of Colgate .My daughter is five, so while we looked on excitedly , Daddy helped us cut out the characters and space ships from the pack and assemble it together.Its very easy to do ,designed in such a way that the characters will stand and make storytelling a lot of fun.
After getting all the characters,space ship,rocket, aliens assembled.My daughter started telling her story while I helped her write it down.
The Story
Once upon a time Rai and Rohan won the science competition at school.Their prize was a visit to the NASA Space centre and a peek inside the new rocket that was visiting Mars .
Once inside the rocket ,Rohan accidentally pressed the glowing green button in the control panel.Before they knew it they launched into flight mode and their biggest adventure.
Rai started crying as she saw the blue-green Earth falling behind.But Rohan was half human, half pixie blood. He was afraid if Rai knew, she would panic even more.His powers were a little rusty, but he sent a quick brain wave to his mom, with a shot of the inside of the rocket to his mom .
Before he could think of a way to get back,they had slowed down .It was a pre-planned flight ,so he could do nothing but wait.
Rai suddenly grabbed his arms and said
Look Rohan I think those are the other planets .I can see Saturn ,Pluto ,and Sun .What are they doing here ?Why are they not on their own orbits?
Rohan couldn't believe his eyes.Planets talking ,and even arguing!He edged up closer to hear what was going on.
What he heard surprised him.They were all discussing their young sister Earth and how two children were the last hope.Rohan was surprised .What could be the problem that made these planets and sun look so worried?
Then Pluto spotted him and said
There he is !That's Rohan I know him.Where's Rai?
Rohan was so surprised, that he could only mutely point out that Rai was inside.Sun was looking happy and gave him a sunny smile.Pluto rushed inside and brought Rai out who looked scared of the space walk.
Together they heard the story .
How all the planets once had life but due to lack of thoughtfulness all trees were killed .No oxygen ,no life!Problem was Earth was going the same way.But she could still be saved.
Thats why Rai and Rohan you have been brought here.-said Sun.
What do we have to do?chimed Rai and Rohan together.
Nothing much .Your rocket will take off from here within next 2.45 minutes.Then you should reach Pluto. But we are tweaking it ,so you reach ET's planet and get the secret from him.
But be careful .there's danger too. Rohan smiled and said
Don't worry Sun .I am half pixie blood.
Rai looked at him shocked ,while the planets just smiled.They knew.That was the reason Rohan was chosen. Rai gave him a sharp poke in the ribs.Rohan said
Quick into the rocket .Count down has started.
Running, almost flying into the mothership ,they settled on a bean bag and started munching the protein bar.
Now out with it – said Rai
What nonsense were you saying there?
Not nonsense .Wait lets reach planet Xtra,you will know.Tell me Rai whats your super power?
I have a green thumb – smiled Rai.
Yes that's why you were chosen .We have to get the secret of the green thumb and a happy soul from ET then Earth will be saved!
Reaching planet Xtra hardly took a minute .ET was already waiting for them with a small silver box in hand.
Quick take this before STUPID the monster sees you.
But STUPID was already there .Rohan and Rai both aimed there laser guns at him and zapped him hard.STUPID vaporized,ET smiled.
If only you can stop stupidity on earth and stop cutting down trees,Earth will be saved.This silver box is Apples latest .Just plug it in your ear and you can talk to plants and hear them too .They will tell you exactly what to do to save earth.Just be careful of STUPID'S clones on earth .
They thanked ET and rushed back to the rocket.They still had time to save earth and be on time for the year ending party .
I'm blogging my #ColgateMagicalstories at BlogAdda in association with Colgate.
The story idea is my daughter Rai's with creative inspiration from me!

We love to shoot beautiful weddings, who doesn't! This time we had the luck to be part of Oisin and Tracy's day.
Oisin is from Spain (Like we are!) coming from La Rioja, a beautiful place renowned not only for the best wines but for their nice people, and we checked that out!
Tracy is american but has been living in La Rioja for two years already, you can tell she is absolutely blended with the "Riojanos".
They planned a destination wedding in a middle ground and they couldn't find a better place than Dominican Republic.
Tracy is a very sweet girl, deeply in love with Oisin, she never looses her smile and she enjoyed every moment of her day with her big family and many friends.
Oisin lived in Japan for a while, then in United States but La Rioja called him back. He still keeps his best friends and he was lucky to have them in his wedding.
The decoration was rustic and romantic with soft colors, mixed with coral and navy blue, lots of flowers and a beautiful naked cake served on a rustic tree trunk surrounded by cupcakes.
But this wedding has a special theme...
There were lots of kids everywhere! We had a hard time avoiding shooting their cuteness all the time, somehow we managed to focus on our couple and their wedding.
Oisin walks to the altar with his mom, apparently very calm but the emotion was hidden inside.
Tracy was escorted by her dad. She was a little bit more nervous than Oisin. We always get emotional when the father "gives away" his little girl, this must be one of the most hard/happy moments in a father's life.
They had an intimate and moving ceremony were we saw Tracy very calm and truly living the moment, soaking every single word and sea breeze. Oisin, in the other hand, going through the ceremony, he started to release the emotion that held during all day.
It is very sweet to see how even working preparing the wedding for a long time, when one may think that everything is planned and rehearsed ahead that there is no emotion left at the showdown but nothing could be further from the truth.
The wedding theme, logically coming from La Rioja, was the wine. They took the chance to make the official presentation of their very own wine label "El Céntimo Real". They brought as many bottles as they could to offer a tasting during the cocktail hour. They insisted us to taste it too and we can say that their wine is going to please the best palates. Definitely "photographer's approved"!
It was a tremendous pleasure to meet you! As well as your family and friends. We truly felt "at home" with you guys and we hope to see you soon either here again or even better, in Nájera.
Thank you very much and best wishes!

New intermodal rail
container yard will be huge
Source: The Leader-Post
Published: July 17th 2008
Printer friendly version
The planned Canadian Pacific intermodal facility (IMF)
could be bringing national distribution centres to
Regina, the size of which the Queen City has never
"This will be an area with extremely large
warehouses. Think of the biggest warehouse you know
and multiply by a factor of two, three or four and
you get a sense of the scale of these," Jeff Lehman,
a principal with MKI, an independent consulting firm
contracted to prepare a concept plan and cost
analysis for the IMF, said Wednesday.
"Some of these are one million square feet so it's a
type of land use that isn't in Regina yet -- a very,
very large warehouse."
Lehman explained that intermodal facilities are
central to distribution networks, particularly for
retailers who will send out goods to their stores
across the country.
The IMF is to be built west of the city and will
replace the current CP yards in downtown Regina.
The estimated $93-million project has already
received $27 million in funding from the federal
government and will also result in the creation of
an interchange at Lewvan Drive and the Trans-Canada
Mayor Pat Fiacco explained the IMF is basically an
inland port, allowing retailers to be able to move
product by air, road and rail. Regina is the ideal
location due to its central position in the country.
"This is about the creation of not hundreds of jobs
but literally thousands of jobs over the next few
years. That's not just including the construction
portion of it, this is ongoing jobs," said Fiacco.
Lehman said each warehouse could be located on
roughly 50 hectares of land by the IMF, but won't
match the size of such facilities seen in Chicago
and Calgary.
"It does depend a little bit on whether the
companies that want to use these sites want to store
things outside as well as inside a warehouse. The
facilities in other centres though are on extremely
large lots so compared to your other industrial park
this is quite a bit different," said Lehman.
Before construction of the IMF can move forward, the
City of Regina must first complete the process of
annexing land from the RM of Sherwood.
At Wednesday's executive committee meeting, a
recommendation was approved for the city to
advertise its intention to apply to the provincial
government to alter its municipal boundaries. The
approved recommendation also gave approval for the
city's administration to negotiate a tax loss
compensation agreement with the RM. It will now come
before council at its Monday meeting.
If approved by council, information packages will
also be sent out to all the affected landowners to
provide feedback. While two open houses have already
been held, more will be hosted by the city and the
"We've already had a couple of open houses on this
and feedback has come in. You're going to get a
mixed bag of people that absolutely want no change
at all and others that look at this as an
opportunity," said Fiacco.

子豚の体温調節性生理反応の日内変化と飼料摂取量の影響 Diurnal Variation of Thermoregulatory Responses in Piglets under Fasting and Feeding
In order to obtain a better understanding of the characteristic of thermoregulation in piglets, variations in thermoregulatory responses were studied in four female piglets in a constant environmental temperature of 25°C where they received one of the three levels of feed at TDN level of 0, 60, 96g/kg0.75 d. The daily feed was distributed in equal quantity at 0800h and 2000h to standardize heat production (HP) from feed ingestion. The influence of HP on rectal temperature (Tr), surface temperature (Ts) and respiration rate (RR) was clearly observed. The Tr and RR were greater during the 1300-1700h than during the 0100-0500h, and the difference of Tr was 0.3-0.8°C. The mean surface temperature (mTs) and Ts of tip sites such as ear tip, snout and pastern were greater during the 0100-0500h than during the 1300-1700h, and the difference of Ts of tip sites was 4-5°C. The contrast in the daily pattern of RR and mTs was conspicuous features. This may indicate that the increased sensible heat loss by mTs was to supplement heat balance with the decrease in evaporative heat loss of respiration during 0100-0500h.

Health Effects of a Sedentary Lifestyle
Modern technology has made our lives very easy. We don't have to travel too much to meet a person; we just call them. We don't have to work too hard; the computers/machines just do it for us. We don't even have to make our own food; we just order it or eat ready-to-eat processed food. It is not only a problem in adults even kids become victim of this problem.
What is sedentary lifestyle?
A sedentary lifestyle is a way of living in which a person does not engage in sufficient physical activity for what is generally considered healthy living. It is marked by prolonged period of sitting, whether it is around the TV or the computer screen or anything else. People living a sedentary lifestyle overlook physical activity and are involved in activities that rarely require any amount of physical stress. According to a new study, following a sedentary lifestyle can be more dangerous for your health than smoking.
How does a sedentary lifestyle affects you?
There is a lot of research conducted on the effects of sedentary lifestyle on an individual across the globe. The findings of these researches can be mentioned as follows:
1.Obesity: The major effect of a sedentary lifestyle can be seen on the size of your trousers. Because you are ingesting a lot of calories and not really burning any of them, these calories are deposited in your body as excess fat. And this is just the beginning of the problems.
2.Increased risk of heart diseases: Your heart must get a proper supply of blood from the blood vessels (coronary arteries) in order to keep functioning efficiently. Leading a sedentary lifestyle can slow the blood circulation and your blood vessels can get stiff and blocked. In serious cases, this can lead to arteriosclerosis and cardiac arrest. According to a study, lack of physical activity in your middle age can increase your risk of dying from heart disease by 52 percent in men and 28 percent in women.
3.Increased risk of diabetes: Regular exercise helps in regulating the blood glucose levels. According to study conducted by researchers at Duke University Medical Center, intensive exercise can significantly improve the body's ability to control blood sugar levels. The lack of exercise results in increased blood sugar levels putting excess stress on your pancreas (which secretes the hormone Insulin). This increases your chances of getting type 2 diabetes.
4.Increased risk of cancer: Decreased activity increases the risk of developing certain types of cancers such as breast cancer, colon cancer, and other types of malignant tumors. According to a study carried out by the University of Hong Kong, physical inactivity can increase the risk of dying from cancer by 45 percent in men and 28 percent in women.
5.Increased risk of osteoporosis: The prolonged inactivity causes your bones to lose their strength as they are no longer challenged to support your body structure. Arthritis and Osteoporosis, which cause the bones to become brittle and weak, can be brought on through an inactive lifestyle.
6.Muscles loose their tone: Your muscles are like car batteries. They need to be run on a regular basis to make sure that the car is working. The more sedentary lifestyle you have the lesser muscles you are likely to posses. The less muscles you posses the lesser is your ability to carry out your day-to-day tasks.
7.Being a couch potato also has a serious effect on your posture and spine health. Sitting all day can shorten and tighten your hip flexors and hamstrings, while making the muscles that support your spine to become weak and stiff.
8.Sleeping difficulties: A sedentary lifestyle doesn't put any physical pressure on the body. Thus the body doesn't feel like taking a rest often which leads to sleeping difficulties and in severe cases can also lead to insomnia.
9.Headaches: Researchers in Norway found that that people who did not exercise were 14 percent more likely to develop non-migraine headaches than those who did exercise.
Faster aging process: Telomeres are repeat sequences of DNA that sit on the ends of chromosomes, protecting them from damage. As we get older, the telomeres get shorter, and their deterioration is associated with the physical signs of middle and old age. A research study found that in inactive people the telomeres shortened more quickly than in active people. The faster is the rate of shortening, the faster is your ageing process. The faster is your ageing process, the higher is the mortality rate. Researchers also found that stress can also have an impact on telomere length, and exercising regularly can make an indirect contribution as it tends to reduce stress levels.
Of course if you have been following a sedentary lifestyle for ages then suddenly getting back to exercise can seem a bit of a daunting task. But if you gradually add low intensity activities like washing your clothes, ironing, walking the dog etc. to your lifestyle and then add high intensity activities like running, cycling etc. you may be well on your way to an active and a healthy lifestyle.

An inactive and uninteresting lifestyle can enhance the risk of ED. Regular exercise and positive thinking can reduce it. All men are therefore urged to exercise regularly and lead an active lifestyle. cool sizegurus website hereReplyDelete

The children have been writing Superhero poetry and every child proudly read out part of their poem in the assembly. The standard of writing was very high and Year 2 thoroughly enjoyed working with James. Their poems form part of Spring Bank Primary's collaboration with the Headingley Literature Festival. Now they nearly all want to be writers when they grow up!

Silver Sisters
Why wouldn't I go to the 'Silver Sisters' annual meet-up? What a great opportunity to meet and photograph dozens of fabulous women as they 'occupied' Times Square. Yes, my wife is there doing her part. Some women had traveled here from other parts of the country, and even other countries, just to be here. There were beautiful women who were professional models, and just beautiful women in general. There was even a mother/daughter couple.
After I've gotten permission, I hope to add some of the street portraits I took in the next few days.

A year after opening in downtown Lawrence, Freebirds World Burrito has closed.
The restaurant, at 741 Massachusetts, closed Sunday.
FB Midwest Development, the area franchisee, also has area locations in Lee's Summit, Mission, Overland Park and Westport, as well as in Columbia and Wichita.
In a statement the company said it closed the Lawrence restaurant because it didn't have an "active following" and it never met the company's expectations.
"There is high demand for Freebirds in other locations so we've decided to pursue areas in which we are requested," the company said. It plans to open another Freebirds in Wichita location in early spring and is in negotiations for locations in Omaha.

Eyeglass Overcasters
ASA introduces the Overcasters(TM) view-limiting device, for simulating instrument conditions in the cockpit environment. Overcasters(TM) are lightweight, clip-on visors that attach to any prescription eyeglass or sunglass frame in seconds, flip up instantly for the perfect instrument-to-visual transition, and when flipped down create a near perfect "simulated instrument" condition.
Overcasters(TM) clip into any Airport/Facility Directory, Flight Guide(TM) or approach binder for easy storage, and can be attached and in use in seconds. Their dark plastic lenses make "cheating" difficult in the cockpit, and are manufactured for flexibility and durability. And perhaps best of all, Overcasters(TM) are widely accepted by FAA examiners for use in practical tests and checkrides.

Untreated orthodontic problems only get worse with age. However, many adults avoid the orthodontic treatment they need because they refuse to wear bulky metal braces. Although braces are the most effective way to straighten teeth, wearing them can be a long and painful process. But old fashioned bracket and wire braces are no longer the only way to effectively straighten teeth. Invisalign clear braces utilize clear and removable aligners, instead of brackets and wires. The Invisalign clear braces are received in stages and are worn for short periods of time to gradually correct misalignment. While braces are usually the best option for complex dental corrections, Invisalign is a fast, effective, and convenient alternative. To discover the Invisalign advantage for yourself, schedule an Invisalign consultation appointment with Williamsburg Dental today. Williamsburg Dental delivers quality care daily to patients of all ages throughout South Lincoln, NE, Hickman, Crete, and the surrounding communities.
The Invisalign Process Step By Step
- Initial Visit: Your first appointment will be a personalized consultation to determine if Invisalign will effectively treat your orthodontic problem. Pictures and X-Rays will be taken and evaluated to make this determination.
- Impressions Visit: If Invisalign will work for you, you will come back to take upper and lower impressions (molds) which will be sent to the Invisalign labs for your custom aligners to be fabricated.
- Aligner and Adjustment Visits: When your new aligners are ready, you will come in to receive your first set. You will wear each aligner for approximately 2-3 weeks, and return to our office about 4-6 weeks to check your progress.
- Final Visit: For your final appointment no more aligners will be delivered. An evaluation of your results will be completed to determine if a case refinement stage will be necessary. If case refinement is necessary, new impressions will be taken and submitted to Invisalign to correct any issues. If your results match initial expectations, impressions will be taken to fabricate retainers, which are worn after any orthodontic treatment is completed to prevent your teeth from shifting out of alignment again.
Lincoln Invisalign Appointments
The sooner you come in for your initial visit the sooner you will be able to enjoy a straight and confident new smile. Schedule your Invisalign consultation appointment with the experienced orthodontic team of Williamsburg Dental today. Williamsburg Dental proudly serves families daily throughout South Lincoln, NE, Hickman, Crete, and the neighboring areas.

T&T compensates Eastern Caribbean for CLICO collapse
Finance Minister Larry Howai says Trinidad will sell the financially troubled Colonial Life Insurance Co Limited (CLICO), whose collapse in 2009 sent ripples throughout the Caribbean, only if the price is right.
Howai, speaking at the meeting of the Standing Finance Committee of the House of Representatives, also said the government would be paying out TT$258 million before yearend to several Eastern Caribbean countries for managing the costs involved in the CLICO fallout. He said the payment to the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States was a grant, not a loan.
The Standing Finance Committee is discussing the TT$9.4-billion national budget approved by Parliament earlier this month.
Howai said the government made no provisions for Atrius in 2015, the company being established to take over the assets of the regional insurance company, because it was no longer pursuing that option.
"We expect that we would be disposing of the portfolio by way of a portfolio sale," Howai said.
The pending sale was first disclosed in May by the central bank.
Opposition legislator Colm Imbert sought to determine why the government would have had to invest TT$1.5 billion more to purchase the assets of CLICO and to capitalise the company under the new insurance regime. He also wanted to know whether the government was moving to wind up the company.
"Yes ... the intention is to sell. It depends on whether we get the price that we are looking for. If we do not get the price we are looking for ... then it would have to continue to operate under Section 44," Howai said, adding that the government was in the process of getting the valuations done and was also hiring an investment bank as adviser.
Asked by Opposition Leader Dr Keith Rowley whether there were any assets of CLICO in the Eastern Caribbean countries which could be taken over, Howai said attempts were made to realise the assets of CLICO, but that very few of those assets were domiciled in the Eastern Caribbean states.
"So the net effect of what could have been realised would have been very minimal," he said, adding that government did not ask for any additional assets to be assigned to Trinidad and Tobago.
The finance minister said that there had been constraints on the Trinidad and Tobago banks owning or acquiring banks in the OECS, but as a condition of disbursement of the TT$258 million, the Trinidad government asked those countries to remove the restrictions and put mechanisms in place to strengthen their regulatory environment so there is no repeat of the CLICO debacle.

Pokemon Go and Sweet Pluots
Guys, we have to talk about it. Now I know your ears have probably already been flooded by it… but we need to pull up a chair and have a heart-to-heart about the mobile app that is sweeping the world: Pokemon Go. I'll admit, I was a bit on the late train to this exercise-friendly game. I was never into Pokemon, so I had to have my husband explain to me what a Pokeman was/is. (Talk about feeling old!). But besides that, let's talk about Pokemon Go, what it is, and why it is so popular.
Pokemon Go is a cell phone app that is free. Users create a profile and then the app uses your camera and location to connect with other Pokemon Go players. You begin by walking around your general vicinity, (usually your house), as you learn how to catch a pokemon. You will see your avatar walking on the screen. When you stumble across a Pokemon to catch, they will pop up, and you will notice a poke-ball at the bottom of your screen. The screen will then flash into camera mode plus the pokemon-to-catch and you need to flick poke-balls at it to catch it. Simplistic? Sure. But it gets a bit more advanced.
So as always, I try to reserve judgment on a game until I have tried it myself and Pokemon Go was no different. I used my husbands cell phone to download the app, create a character, and figure out the basics of the game. After capturing a pokemon, I quickly learned that unlike a pedometer where you can walk around your house and still get in your exercise, Pokemon Go is designed to take you outside into your community to "Poke-Stops". These centers, (marked by a blue square on your map), are physical locations near you where you can go to capture other Pokemon. The catch: the same poke-spots are also given to other Pokemon players too.
Let's pause for a moment.
Last night it was about 9 p.m. when I was trying out the app. After catching my first 2 pokemon in my home, the app wanted me to wander out into my local nearby park to several poke-spots. Obviously common-sense kicked in and I knew better then to wander the streets at night just to catch virtual app. characters. But it did beg the question: Would kids and teens have the same common sense to not use this app at night? Listening to one of my favorite Youtubers, PointlessBlog (Alfie Dayes), I was shocked. In his latest vlog he mentioned about wandering the streets of Brighton at 2 a.m. just to go to more Poke-stops/catch Pokemon! "Okay…" I thought to myself, "So what if one popular guy does it. Surely it can't be that bad…". Then my husband messaged me from work.
A fellow co-worker of his was at the beach the other night and filmed a 360-degree video of people all around him running up and down the pier catching Pokemon. My eyes were beginning to open. As I clicked on the news this morning there was an article published on The Daily Mail warning about pedophiles using the app. to find kids at poke-spots. What?! Oh hell no. Then, I read about lures. Do you know what a lure is? Apparently, once you hit level 5 in Pokemon Go, you then go to a nearby landmark to try and lure other players into fighting in a virtual gym. Needless to say, police have been responding to robberies made by thieves who have lured players to landmarks and stolen their phones.
I try really hard to not be that helicopter parent, but sometimes we have to pause a moment and examine things. I love that Pokemon Go gets people moving. I love that there is an app that is creative enough to want to get people interested and away from staring at the TV. But is it just me, or is anyone else out there going, "um hello?! This is an accident waiting to happen!!". Not to mention that while you're staring at your phone, walking along where ever you are, odds are REALLY good you won't be looking at the cars on the road…. or bicycles that share the road…. or things in your path. There is bound to be senseless accidents over people staring at their phone over this game, and I feel so strongly that it could be preventable.
You all know that I'm a gamer-girl and proud of it. But Pokemon Go? This one I'll pass on.
That being said, unlike the crazy app that is flooding our world, I want to talk to you about a crazy fruit that is often over-looked: pluots! This fruit is a cross between an apricot and a plum! Pluots are soft-skinned, sweet, tender fruit that are absolutely succulent and very refreshing on a hot day. Needless to say they are my current favorite summer treat. Check out your local grocery store to see if they have them in stock. I promise you it's worth trying! Stay safe everyone and have a wonderful day! ❤

Mahogany Tree Villa 01/07/2004
Reviewers Rating:
We just got back from a 2 week stay at the Mahogany Tree Villa in Cruz Bay, and I want to recomment it heartily to travellers who want a modestly priced, very comfortable place to stay. Their website is www.mahoganytreevilla.com.
The MTV consists of three moderately small 4 room apartments with full kitchens, air conditioned master bedrooms, living rooms with cable TV and wonderful, large covered furnished decks. Our suite was decorated with a clever artistic flair, and great attention to comfort, lighting, etc. Of course there is a (small) pool and a wonderful honesty bar in a funky gazebo with a terrific collection of books. In fact, I was tickled to find more books all over our villa! What a great place for an avid reader. Our host and hostess, Gerry and Martha Hill, met us at the ferry and showed us warm hospitality. The MTV is located above Frank Bay (a wonderful place to take in the sunsets) a little ways beyond Gallows Point and Lavender Hills Estate. While there were a few short steep hills, it took us between 5 and 10 minutes to walk to Cruz Bay. We were so happy there, we've already booked our stay for next Christmas. I'd be happy to answer any questions if you want to write me.

Logicworks Introduces Cloud Solutions Catalog to Solve the Healthcare Industry's Challenges With Meaningful Use Certification, Image Management, EHR Deployment, and Application Decommissioning
Logicworks Introduces Cloud Solutions Catalog to Solve the Healthcare Industry's Challenges With Meaningful Use Certification, Image Management, EHR Deployment, and Application Decommissioning
NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Apr 22, 2014) - Logicworks, a leader in compliant cloud computing and managed hosting, today announced the official launch of its Healthcare Cloud Solutions Catalog. Logicworks' new suite of healthcare cloud solutions directly addresses the infrastructure problems and business requirements of covered entities, ISVs and government agencies.
Logicworks' healthcare solutions offerings include:
Logicworks works collaboratively with each client to address their mission-critical challenges and meet industry and regulatory standards, which include operating under the covenants of Business Associate Agreements (BAA). Delivering on a promise of medical-grade cloud solutions, Logicworks' solutions catalog enables the healthcare industry to address its most difficult challenges.
"The Affordable Care Act kicked off a sea change both in the way healthcare is delivered, and in the technology required to help organizations satisfy new government mandates," states Jason Deck, VP of Strategic Development at Logicworks. "After extensive consultation with our clients and partners across the industry, we are excited to launch our new Healthcare Cloud Solutions Catalog to solve the biggest problems faced by care providers, government agencies, and software firms involved in healthcare delivery so that those organizations can more easily adapt to the ongoing change in the US Healthcare system."
Logicworks brings many years of experience managing HIPAA compliant infrastructure, and leverages a myriad of cloud technologies to design solutions to healthcare industry challenges. Logicworks built the new suite of healthcare industry solutions on a combination of bare metal, hosted private cloud, managed public cloud, and hybrid environments. Logicworks is the exclusive hosting partner for Orion Health's North American Software-as-a-Service platform, and currently hosts more than 30 Health Information Exchanges (HIE) used by over 200 Covered Entities across the country.
"Our clients do not come to us in need of a cloud. They come to us in need of a solution to a particular problem -- whether that is achieving Meaningful Use Stage 2 certification, archiving medical images in a scalable, efficient way, or rolling out a new Health Information Exchange that is audited and built for high availability," says Jason McKay, VP of Engineering at Logicworks. "Logicworks engineers solve these problems using all the tools available in the marketplace. We are agnostic to the tools, and use the most appropriate technology to address a client's specific requirements."

Browse these scrap metal removal services with great ratings from Thumbtack customers in Hoffman Estates.
Tim responded and met a tight deadline as in a couple hours to come out and remove scrap metal pool heater and couch and lots of other stuff. Great guy. Thank u so much
Chano and Isreal and "Dad" did a great job!!! They handled a second story industrial office clean out and did not adjust the price based on the stairs as another company had quoted me. They were so polite and careful and cleaned up everything. I was very happy to know that they salvage the metals and donate any items that were still usable. They don't just take everything to the landfill. Great guys, honest, hard working crew. I'm very happy I chose them over a "national chain" junk removal service. Would hire them again if I ever need this service in the future!!!!
I would definitely hire Ms. Connley and crew again. I highly recommend the junk removal/hauling service of Reed N Connley. We needed to dispose of a broken hot tub that we were cutting up, along with a bunch of other construction and household waste (metal, plastic, broken tools, fence wire). We thought we could fit it all in one Bagster ($219 cost for our location) but we ended up needing 2, which would have cost $399 total. See pic of waste pile. So I looked on the What's Happening in Batavia Facebook page and saw Reed N Connley had been recommended. I checked the firm's FB page, and it said to text a pic for a quote. So I did, on Saturday at 5 pm. Got a response in minutes!!! Conley said they'd take it all away for $295, saving me $100. They texted with me on Sunday (as we were still dismantling the hot tub) and settled on a scheduled pick-up for 12:30 pm the next day, Monday. They texted when they were able to come early. The driver and her assistant had the junk all loaded on their truck and were gone by 12:15. I don't see how you can beat that for responsiveness, speed, and overall value! They even dumped the dirt and foam bits (from the hot tub guts, which are very messy) from the Bagster into their truck and put the Bagster in my garage so I could use it some other time (it cost $30 at Home Depot). And they even tried to pick up the remaining inevitable foam bits on the gravel drive and lawn, but I said, just leave it, I would get that with the rake later. I would work with Ms. Conley and crew again any time. This review is my own honest opinion. I am not personally acquainted with anyone who works for this business and I received no bribe to write this.
I went onto thumbnails and explained that I had a large grill To be removed from our upper deck. Blackhawks removal contacted me within 5 minutes. Joe scheduled the appointment for the same day. He arrived on time and performed a excellent job removing the grill. i would rate his performance as excellent. My husband and i have decided to use his company this winter for snow removal.
Clear Oak Construction does really top-notch, dependable work. Mike strikes me as someone very knowledgeable and experienced in all carpentry-related matters, as well as other aspects of construction. He is also good at solving problems and great at communicating, including responding quickly, having the patience to answer lots of questions, and can explain things in a way that someone (like myself) who knows nothing about carpentry and construction can understand. Clear Oak Construction designed and installed an access hatch to allow me to access the attic in my garage. They also repaired the molding and metal trim surrounding my garage door, which had been severely damaged from a run-in with my car. When I first contacted Clear Oak, Mike responded quickly and made time right away to come out and give me an estimate. He bid out the work at a very reasonable rate and his crew got the job done right the first time around. I will definitely use Clear Oak Construction again next time I need a skilled carpenter, or have a renovation or construction project.
We remove all scrap metals -- water tanks, furnaces, piping, wiring and tubes. We do pickups depending on removal sizes but for the most part, we pick up all-size loads.
I do debris removal, lawn care and property preservation. I also provide billiard instructions for the novice pool player. I am an artist who's for hire.
Call me for cheap and professional landscape work and snow removal You can contact me at anytime.
We remove all scrap and junk at a very low price. We do entire clean outs and we are a safe and clean company.

Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke (D) argued that comments made by New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) were "irresponsible rhetoric" that was "trying to open an old wound" on Thursday's "Kelly File" on the Fox News Channel.
"[De Blasio's statement is] irresponsible rhetoric. There's no doubt about it. Mayor de Blasio is placating to a segment of people in New York, and I find it shameful…look, Megyn, I come from both perspectives here. I grew up a black male in America and for the last 37 years I've lived in a police culture. These two things are compatible, but what's going on here, look, slavery left a stain on the soul of this nation. We all know that. But that wound is starting to heal, and it's been healing for a long time. But, now we have a segment of people who are picking at that scar hoping to re-open it and take us back to a time that simply doesn't exist today. We've come a long way in terms of improved race relations here in the United States. White society, I think, has done a credible job of trying to right those wrongs and realizing they can't hold us back anymore. that we can only hold ourselves back." he stated.
Clarke added that those attributing the Garner and Brown incidents to race were "trying to open an old wound as if the Civil War was fought last year. And we need to continue to push back with sound reasoning, with level heads. And that's the only way you can confront the irresponsible rhetoric that we're hearing coming out of some very powerful people."
Clarke also said, regarding the comments de Blasio made about his son, "fortunately his son is going to grow up with a male role model, a father figure in his life much like I did. My dad was my role model. My dad taught me how to deal with the world. Look, there was an example when I was a young kid, 15-year-old punk, and a squad car drove by the house and I put up the Black Power signal, you know, just kind of taunting the police. The police backed the car up, came up and my dad came out of the house. He walked up respectfully and said, 'officer, is there a problem?' He said 'we thought your son was flagging us down.' He said 'I'll handle this.' My father told me to get in the house. He said 'why are you screwing with the police? Knock it off.' See, it's about respect. respect for authority…look, the police are in charge. When the police tell you to get out of the road, you get out of the road. When the police tell you to put your hands behind your back, you're going to jail, you put your hands behind your back. What I tell people all the time is, 'look, comply with the lawful orders of the police and we'll deal with grievance later.' Because when you're going into a situation where you're going to confront a law enforcement officer, you're going to lose, and you should lose. So, I tell them 'comply and we'll deal with it later.'"
