The initial PediatRx therapeutic area of focus is cancer and associated conditions/supportive care.

PediatRx also intends to acquire and/or license, and become the sole marketer in the United States, of other FDA-approved, branded prescription drugs as well as reformulate certain compounds as more appropriate forms.
PediatRx has a category-expert management team of experienced entrepreneurs with a proven track record of success in big pharma, specialty pharma and start ups. This includes Dr. Cameron Durrant in the role of President, Chief Executive Officer and Director, David Tousley as Chief Financial Officer and Director, and Jorge Rodriguez as Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer.

Today's hotel planning and booking customer journey is becoming increasingly complex in this multi-device, multi-channel and multi-touch point digital landscape. In fact, according to Google, the average consumer engages in 38,983 digital micro-moments in just under two months. That's over 38,000 digital moments in a 60-day booking window. As consumers are living their lives digitally connected throughout these digital micro-moments, when they embark on the travel planning journey, which on average, includes 19 different touchpoints before making a booking (Google research), each one of these touchpoints presents an opportunity for a hotel to build a brand connection, influence intent, and be there for every step of the journey.
In light of this complex digital landscape, hotel marketers should engage online travel consumers throughout their complex "digital journey", and can no longer afford to have a fragmented customer engagement and acquisition approach.
What exactly today's typical fragmented approach look like?
One glaring example of this highly fragmented approach is keeping past guest engagement efforts (CRM) in a silo from new customer acquisition and marketing efforts. How could that be? Less than a third of hotel guests on any given night are repeat guests, while two-thirds are first-time guests. This means the reality that General Managers and DOSMs face every day is having to secure about 70% of occupancy on any given night with brand new guests that they know very little about while trying to ensure they have a pleasant and meaningful stay. Furthermore, once the property has acquired this new guest, when the guest walks out the door, there is no guarantee they will ever stay again resulting in a vicious cycle that affects the bottom line.
Here are some stark examples of today's fragmented approach:
- Hotel Website: The property knows "intimately" their guests: their home address, credit card number, what they ate or how many drinks they had last night, and more. Yet, when these same guests visit the hotel website, they are treated as complete strangers.
- Data Islands: Your property customer data lives in multiple "data islands" that do not talk to each other: PMS, CRM, CRS, Social Media, Web Analytics, Marketing Data, BI, etc. In other words, your past guest data (CRM Data) is not being utilized to engage and retain past guests, as well as target new guests and sharpen the focus and reach of your digital marketing campaigns, in order to acquire new guests that are similar to your past "best guests."
- RFM: Practically non-existent capabilities to identify the property's "best guests" (High RFM Value) and engage them throughout their hotel planning and booking journey, and throughout the customer lifetime, as well as use this knowledge to acquire new "best guests".
- Technology & Digital Marketing Silos: The hotel uses a myriad of vendors that do not "talk to each other", and in many cases do not even know each other: one for CRM, one for the property website, a third for SEO, a fourth for SEM, a fifth for online media, another one for social media marketing, etc. Managing digital marketing campaigns without taking into consideration who your past guests are, who are your "best" guests (Ex. highest RFM Value), their preferences, stay and booking behavior and failing to capitalize on these insights to fuel digital marketing campaigns to reach the right guest.
- CRM Data not "talking" to Intent Data: Knowledge from past "best" guests is not being used to identify "Marketing Personas" and target look-alike audiences thus significantly expanding the marketing reach to acquire new guests that are similar to your "best" past guests and are "in market" i.e. planning to travel to the property's destination.
These are just a few examples of how digital and data silos are "revenue blockers" fragmenting the direct online channel in hospitality today. It is no longer just about having a design firm build the hotel website, having another agency launch marketing initiatives, and another manage the CRM efforts. By tying everything together with a 360-degree approach, engaging, retaining, and acquiring guests throughout the customer journey is not only more efficient and more effective at driving direct bookings, but it is incomparable in growing the bond with your customers and their lifetime value.
What is the solution?
Embrace a fully-integrated 360-degree approach that "closes the loop" on the customer travel planning journey with a seamless ecosystem that capitalizes on knowledge from past guests to acquire new guests through Smart Personalization on the hotel website, Smart Data Marketing and lookalike audiences targeting, and engaging the traveler at every touchpoint of the travel journey with personalized, meaningful messaging.
How do we do it?
To better illustrate how a fully-integrated approach works, we will review Hotel360 Technologies'
360-Degree Guest Engagement and Acquisition Technology and Marketing Platform. The SmartCMS website technology platform AND the Guest Data Management Platform (DMP) serve as the "nucleus" or the "command center" that power the hotel past/future guest engagement, retention and acquisition efforts:
- The Smart CRM Suite (a comprehensive hotel CRM suite)
- The Guest Acquisition Marketing Suite (a powerful guest acquisition marketing platform)
This architecture seamlessly integrates owned guest data from the Guest DMP into the property's CRM initiatives, website content and personalization strategy, Smart Data Marketing, new guest acquisition marketing, multichannel campaigns, and full-stack digital consulting and marketing solutions to "close the loop" in a hotel's past and future guest acquisition strategy.
Smart CRM Suite to Engage Past Guests:
The Smart CRM Suite's primary objective is to provide a comprehensive guest engagement and retention solution, as well as create a comprehensive guest database with knowledge about the property's past guests, their preferences, booking and stay behavior, RFM/lifetime value, brand loyalty, and more. This guest data can be utilized not only to better retain past guests and identify who are the best guests, but to acquire completely new guests that mirror your "best guest."
Where is all of this guest data stored?
The Smart CRM Suite achieves its objective through the Guest Data Management Platform.
Guest Data Management Platform (DMP):
A cloud-based Guest Data Management Platform (DMP) that serves as the "smart" data layer incorporating past guest data extracted from the PMS, CRS and other guest data sources, and continuously updating, cleansing and enriching customer profiles to serve as the main "guest knowledge depository" for ongoing guest engagement and retention, as well as new guest acquisition efforts.
The Smart CRM Suite includes:
- Guest Communications Manager: This functionality allows the property to manage all of the automated transactional emails and engage customers with personalized guest communications, such as pre-stay, in-stay, and post-stay emails, cancellation emails, guest surveys, and more.
- Guest Marketing Manager: This ongoing guest engagement and marketing platform features a guest marketing dashboard for campaign management and marketing automation that allows the property to initiate or schedule targeted and highly personalized email marketing campaigns and "drip" campaigns to smart customer lists with unlimited targeting options.
- Loyalty/Guest Recognition Manager: This guest recognition and reward platform allows the mid-size and smaller hotel chain, luxury or boutique hotel brand or independent hotel and resort to recognize and reward repeat guests through either a comprehensive Reward/Loyalty Program (points or perks) or through a Guest Recognition & Appreciation Program (based on number of roomnights).
Smart Guest Acquisition Suite to Acquire New Guests:
The Smart Acquisition Suite's main objective is to acquire new guests by capitalizing on the knowledge of past guests i.e. CRM Data. This powerful technology and marketing suite integrates the smartCMS® website technology platform and Guest DMP to fuel the Smart Personalization Engine, Smart Data Marketing, and full-stack digital consulting and marketing solutions all in one seamless ecosystem to "close the loop" in a hotel's past and future guest engagement, retention and acquisition.
The Smart Acquisition Suite Includes:
- Smart Personalization Engine: Fully integrated with the Guest DMP, the Smart Personalization Engine is one of the 30+ modules of HEBS Digital's award-winning smartCMS website technology platform, which allows hotel websites to deliver dynamically personalized content and promotions on the hotel website based on users' past booking history, guest preferences, loyalty program affiliation, demographics, geo location, website behavior, or market segment affiliation.
- Smart Data Marketing: Smart Data Marketing takes full advantage of "owned data" (past guest data, demographics, website data, etc.) and then layers on real-time travel planning insights and intent data points to target in-market potential guests during the travel planning process to your property's destination. Smart Data Marketing also utilizes programmatic advertising and dynamic rate marketing (DRM).
- Acquisition Marketing: Acquisition Marketing utilizes knowledge from past guests to target and acquire new guests through direct response and evergreen digital marketing initiatives such as SEM, SEO, GDN, online media, programmatic display, and dynamic rate marketing. Acquisition Marketing also includes seasonal and targeted multichannel campaigns with one cohesive message across channels to answer occupancy needs, target current and new segments, capitalize on events and holidays, and more.

The team traded Donovan Ricketts to the Portland Timbers for Troy Perkins in a swap of veteran goalkeepers on Tuesday.
Ricketts, 35, started 24 of Montreal's 25 games and was coming off his third shutout in a 2-0 win Saturday against Philadelphia.
The 31-year-old Perkins played 22 games with the Timbers this season, helping them set a team record of 377 consecutive minutes without allowing a goal.
The Impact acquired Ricketts from the Los Angeles Galaxy for allocation money on Dec. 23.
Coach Jesse Marsch had been a staunch defender of the 2010 MLS goalkeeper of the year when he came in for criticism from fans and media this season, so the trade was a surprise.
"We would like to thank Donovan for his services with the Impact but we did not feel he fit into our plans moving forward," Impact sporting director Nick De Santis said in a statement.
Ricketts earned his first clean sheet with Montreal in a 2-0 victory over Portland on April 29.
Perkins started that match for the Timbers, but left in the 67th minute with a bad gash on his face after a kick from Impact forward Sanna Nyassi.
"We are happy to be able to add Troy to our group and we think he will make an immediate impact in what we are trying to achieve," said Marsch. "We feel this will help us make a strong push at the end of this year, as well as solidify ourselves for the future."
Montreal also has Evan Bush, who had one start this season, and veteran goalie Greg Sutton.
The six-foot-two Perkins played for D.C. United from 2004 to 2007, winning MLS goalkeeper of the year in 2006. He moved to Norway in 2008 and returned to MLS with Portland in 2010. He has played more than 150 MLS games.
The Impact (9-13-4) next play Sunday at New England.

Rabbit Ears
The shift to digital television is scheduled to occur on February 18, 2009 in the US. This historic shift, often compared to the inauguration of color TV, has been referred to as "The Digital TV Transition" by the FCC and has been widely publicized for the past several months. As I write this column, the FCC website provides the countdown to the digital transition as 74 days, 13 hours, 4 minutes, 49 seconds. This is an important moment for television scholars: the future of television is in the public spotlight, and there are opportunities to draw attention to various TV-related issues ranging from media conglomeration to e-waste from writer's salaries to spectrum allocation, particularly since the issue of media reform got lost in the 2008 elections. Further, following on important work by William Boddy, John Caldwell, and Lynn Spigel among others, we might also consider how this historic moment suggests new directions for TV research, whether on the relationship between the FCC and citizens/viewers, local and regional television, or the visualization of television technologies.
Though regulators and manufacturers have already made many of the key decisions about the future of television, technological negotiations remain for many consumer/citizens. There are an estimated 19 million US households still using analog television sets. (In technology studies we often hear of the "early adopters" and we might call this group the "diehard users.") Owners of analog sets will have to decide how and whether they want to continue to receive a television signal and can either purchase a digital converter box or a television set with a digital tuner, or can subscribe to cable or satellite television. The federal government has subsidized the transition and the National Telecommunication and Information Administration is administering a $1.5 billion coupon program to support those who want to retrofit their analog receivers with converter boxes.National Targeting for Digital Conversion
Despite TV scholars' recent focus on cable, satellite, interactive and web-based TV, it is important to recognize that a significant chunk of the US TV audience—roughly 15%—has continued to receive "free" over the air signals for decades. What if the moment of the digital transition led to scholarly investigations of the analog diehards rather than the technophiles that raced to join the alleged digital TV "revolution"? Given the fixation on novelty in our techno-culture and often in our field, we have much to learn from consumers who, whether by default or by choice, continue to use machines simply because they still work. It's too easy to equate the use of old machines with poverty or reticence.

Genaro Ruiz could easily have fallen short of becoming the first on his father's side, first on his mother's side, to go to college.
Money was tight when he started out 20 years ago, first at Rockhurst College and then at the University of Missouri-Kansas City.
A scholarship from the Greater Kansas City Hispanic Scholarship Fund made all the difference.
These decades later, Ruiz is a senior advisor to Kansas City Mayor Sly James, and more recipients of the Latino-focused scholarships are enrolled in higher education than ever.
The organizers of the fund that made such a difference for Ruiz see their role — getting Hispanic students through college — as critical to the Obama administration's goal of boosting higher education enrollment by 50 percent by 2025. So they've stepped up their nearly 30-year effort. And 21 area colleges and universities now promise to match the awards.
On Thursday, the fund passed out a record $350,000 to 229 award recipients based on academic achievement, community involvement, financial need and an essay. Four years ago the fund awarded $129,000.
It's a growing trend.
Last year the Lumina Foundation pledged $7.2 million in four years to promoting college education for Hispanic students. About the same time, the Pew Hispanic Center reported that the number of Hispanic students attending college reached an all-time high of 12.2 million in October 2010. From 2000 to 2009, the percentage of college students who are Hispanic rose from 9.5 to 12 percent.
The U.S. Department of Education says that the percentage of college students who are Hispanic, Asian/Pacific Islander and African American has been increasing on campuses across the country for three decades. But Hispanic students are less likely to graduate.
"Recruiting is just the first step," said Stancia Jenkins, assistant vice chancellor of community and public affairs at UMKC.
Then mentoring becomes key. The fund is raising money to also track scholars through college graduation.
Patricia Barra of Grain Valley is a college junior who's been a recipient of the Hispanic scholarship the past three years.
"I've been lucky," said Barra, who plans to be a special education teacher once she graduates from UMKC. "Scholarship money helped pay for several hundred dollars' worth of books every year," she said.
Michael Flores, a graduate of the University of St. Louis, will attend UMKC dental school in the fall. He's gotten $4,000 in Greater Kansas City Hispanic Scholarship money and has still needed loans and other grants.
But when he graduates in 2016, he says, "I'll start my practice in Kansas City and give back to the city that supported me."

Village Official Arrested for Official Misconduct
Dec 04, 2014
Donna Evans, 51, formerly of rural Farmer City, has been arrested for theft of over $10,000 in public funds from the Village of DeWitt. Evans served as the Village Treasurer at the time of the alleged thefts. The arrest was a result of a year-long investigation by DeWitt County Sheriff's Office.
Evans was arrested on a warrant at her current residence in Shelby County, Texas. She will be extradited to Illinois to face felony charges of Official Misconduct and Theft.
Sheriff Jered Shofner said cases like this should be a wake-up call for all government entities, "Regardless of the size of local government, we owe it to the taxpayers to make sure public funds are protected by a system of checks and balances. This type of theft is preventable".
All suspects are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

If you are thinking about becoming pregnant, there are several things
to put on your to-do list…start taking prenatal vitamins, get
up-to-date on any vaccinations, strive for your ideal body weight, and
stop any bad habits that might impact the health of your pregnancy and
your baby.Smoking fits into that last category. A new study from
the Centers for Disease Control estimates that moms-to-be who smoke
account for up to 8% of premature births and up to 19% of low
birthweight babies. And even more scary, almost 25% of Sudden Infant
Death Syndrome (SIDS) could be prevented if the baby's mother did not
So just quit smoking, right? If it could only be that easy!
If you are pregnant, certainly the safest way to stop is to
attend support groups or therapy. Although no one can say that nicotine
replacement products (gums, lozenges, patches, and inhalers) are 100%
safe during pregnancy, the American College of Obstetricians and
Gynecologists say that the benefits of stopping smoking outweigh the
potential risk of these products. It's also safe to try a prescription
medication that helps reduce the withdrawal symptoms.The best
thing to do is to quit before becoming pregnant. And, make your partner
quit too!

It's the beginning of a new year at Camp Neyati! Our hope and prayer is that 2016 will be another successful year filled with singing, Bible studies, devotions, prayers and most of all helping our young people form a closer relationship with God.
After 30+ years of working and serving at camp Neyati, Harvey and Tina made the decision to retire at the end of 2015. They have worked tirelessly for many years to provide a beautiful and safe environment that has given thousands of campers the opportunity to grow closer as a church family and to grow in their spiritual lives. Harvey and Tina may not be present at camp, but their influence will continue for years to come. They both truly have the heart of a servant! Tina will continue to work at the elementary school and Harvey said he would find a part time job to keep him busy. We wish them all the best!
"You have big shoes to fill!" I have heard this statement many times over the past few months. I "shadowed" Harvey from the middle of August to the last retreat in November of 2015. He introduced me to many people in Guntersville and the surrounding area and almost every person would make the same statement, "You have big shoes to fill." I realized early on the weight of the responsibility of being the camp director at Neyati. My prayer is that my wife Rachel and I can be the kind of servants that Harvey and Tina were to each camper.
I grew up in Huntsville, AL and attended the East Huntsville church of Christ. Rachel grew up in several locations but spent most of her time in Toney, AL where he dad, the late Bobby Norris, was the preacher for 10 years at Friendship church of Christ. Her family eventually moved to Albertville, Al. We met while attending Auburn University and were married in 2001. We currently live in Albertville, AL and have two children, Hannah (9) and Ben (7). I am currently preaching at the Hebron church of Christ in Grant and Rachel works with young children with special needs throughout Marshall County. We are so excited to be a part of camp Neyati. We ask that everyone be patient with us as we try to make this transition as smooth as possible. I know there will be many challenges but I also know that the blessings will outnumber any challenge we may face. We are so thankful and blessed to be working at Camp Neyati. We are looking forward to a great year in 2016!
In His service,
Mark Hastings
Camp Director
We had a very busy summer camp season in 2014 and are looking forward to the fall retreat season. So far this year, we have had about 1700 campers and staff and have had 18 baptisms. Retreats are scheduled until the weekend before Thanksgiving and will begin again in February of 2015.
In facility news, cabin two is in the process of renovation. We have removed the old paint and the 64 year old electrical components. The painting is nearly completed and work on the new electrical is about to begin. The renovated cabin will only sleep 18 instead of 22. During the renovation, we uncovered an old coal burning fireplace. I knew there was a fireplace in the cabin but it had been covered up for many years. When we removed the paint, we uncovered what look like to be concrete bricks which were probably cast on site in 1950. I have been trying to find hardware to fit the old casement windows but the replacement is too light duty to handle the steel windows. We thought about replacing the mattresses but they are over $100 each so that must wait.
The young lady who worked as our lifeguard this summer was involved in a very severe wreck on her way to work here at camp and has spent a good deal of time at the Spain Rehabilitation center.
Quite a storm passed through Camp Ney A Ti yesterday. I drove down to the camp ground expecting to find trees all over the place but they were all upright, even the two in front of cabin 1 that have leaned for years were still leaning.
We are preparing for the seventh retreat of the season and looking at the calendar, there are no available weekends left for the spring. Because of the June calendar, we will be ending summer sessions a week early this year unless some group decides to take the last week in July. There are still five weekends available in the fall.
Update on the fund-raising dinner. We got several donations after the dinner and our total is more than $3000.00. Please continue to keep Ney-a-ti in your prayers. Donate whatever you can. You can set up an automatic bank draft on the Fundraising tab. There are always projects to do. Thanks!
The benefit dinner at West Huntsville was very good. We had a smaller crowd than last year but it still raised about $2000.00. Please keep Ney-a-ti in your prayers. People often only think about camp while they are there. If you love camp and want to see it continue, pray for camp, donate to camp, come out and help on work days, and do projects with your group when you come to camp. There is so much to do and Harvey or one of the board members can let you know how to help. If you would like to start contributing on a regular basis you can sign up on the Fundraising tab for automatic bank draft. Thank you for your continued support.

This will be interesting, Tina went off to work at Cherokee
Elementary School today and I stayed home.
Some people take a picture of the sun rising on their first day of retirement but I folded clothes and wrote on a blog, another first for me.
The day will be full, Collins Auto parts is delivering a lawn mower to replace the faithful TORO which finally bit the dust. John Deere has a wonderful program for non-profits, selling equipment at cost with no interest charge for one year. I will also get the lodge ready for the retreat from the Rogersville Church of Christ arriving on Friday.
I want to thank you for visiting our new website. Please take a moment and go back to our Home page and sign-up for our camp newsletter. Also, if you don't already, considering making a monthly donation to Ney-A-Ti. We have tried to make it easy by allowing automatic withdraws from your account. The form is available on our Fundraising page.
Thank you again for your support!

Hiii everyone, Jenine here.
Today it's my turn to show you something on the Little Darlings Rubbers Stamps blog.
I've choosen for the CandyBean stamp - Izzy's Bunnytime. I coloured the image with the Faber Castell polychromos.
The papers I used are from Kaisercraft - On this day.
At the left side i used the Noor! Design die border with bow 6002/0187 . I folded it around the card, woven a ribben trought the border and made a little bow on it. In the center of the bow I used a little mullberry rose.
Further at the left side the beautiful Vintage Flourishes birdcage 6003/0034.
At the right behind the image i used the circle die 6002/0303. I fold it a little bit around the coloured image.
For decoration a lot of flowers, behind the flower i made a Resin Key from Prima Marketing.
Hope I can give you some inspiration with this card.
Wish you a very nice and lovely day.

In our recent webcam chat with comedian David Spade (watch below), he described his new Comedy Central special "My Fake Problems" as "a real treat to America." This is the first TV airing of one of his stand-up shows since one that he did for HBO back in 1998. He explained this prolonged absence by noting that most comics stay away from too many TV specials because "a big thing that happens is that comedians get scared because they they have to throw away all their jokes. If you're Chris Rock or Louis C.K. or Dennis Miller, you do that and then you spend years developing a new hour. I'm too lazy. A lot of comedians are. It's just so hard to find those jokes that really work."
Join the fun Emmy discussions going on
right now in the Gold Derby message boards
One of his best segments is his riff on the Oscars. He wonders why they are so esteemed when a first-timer like Jennifer Hudson wins or a kid like Quvenzhane Wallis gets nominated. How could acting be so tough if newcomers can win the top prizes?
Spade got his big break in 1990 when he joined the long-running "Saturday Night Live" as a writer and cast member. He stayed with that program through 1996, helping to usher in a mostly new cast that final year while including his popular "Hollywood Minute" segment on "Weekend Update."
Of those years on "SNL," he readily admitted "he wasn't really ready for it" and "how I was stressed." As he elaborated, "I developed writing skills there. It took three years to write a good sketch. I don't know how I could have prepared for that and the pressure that I put on myself. I think it's nice of people… that remember I did stuff on there that was funny, because when I was there I couldn't have been beat down more."
Just before departing the program, his film career took off by starring with fellow "SNL" alum Chris Farley in "Tommy Boy" and "Black Sheep." Recently he has been seen in Adam Sandler movies "The Benchwarmers," "Grown Ups," and "Jack and Jill."
While on "SNL," he received three Emmy Award nominations for variety writing (1990, 1991, 1993). His other Emmy nod was as Best Comedy Supporting Actor in "Just Shoot Me!" (1999). That role on the NBC laffer also earned him two Golden Globe bids (1999, 2000).
Spade's Comedy Central show is listed on the Emmy ballot under Best Variety Special. You will be able to vote for that category soon, but in the meantime who do you think is out front at the Emmys in his old category of Best Comedy Supporting Actor?

A Supreme Court ruling on Wednesday could dramatically affect the way millions of Floridians deposit their money, invest in certificates of deposits, obtain credit cards and borrow to buy homes and cars.
In a 5-to-4 vote, the nation's high court essentially agreed with the country's banks that many credit unions trampled federal regulations by adding diverse arrays of customer groups to their rolls.
The ruling upholds a lower court order barring credit unions _ financial cooperatives formed by employees of one company or specific industry _ from signing up more employer groups. The decision forces individual credit unions, at least for now, to recruit members from a much more limited menu of organizations.
And it raises the longshot possibility that some of the largest credit unions may have to divest millions of customers and billions of dollars in deposits.
``This is awful,'' said John Alden, senior vice president of Tropical Federal Credit Union in Miami. ``Tomorrow and the next day we will do business as usual, but whether or not that lasts is arguable.''
But Florida's community bankers, who say they have unfairly lost customers and profits to credit unions, were pleased by the ruling.
Bankers argue that credit unions are exempt from paying federal income taxes and able to compete unfairly _ especially if allowed to add customers indiscriminately.
``Credit unions bring diversity to the financial services marketplace . . [however) they are tax-subsidized organizations that should not be allowed to expand beyond what the law provides,'' said Charlie Brinkley, president of the Florida Bankers Association.

But it is preposterous to imagine that we ourselves are determinate, and hence susceptible both to correct and to incorrect descriptions, while supposing that the ascription of determinacy to anything else has been exposed as a mistake. As conscious beings, we exist only in response to other things, and we cannot know ourselves at all without knowing them. Moreover, there is nothing in theory, and certainly nothing in experience, to support the extraordinary judgment that it is the truth about himself that is easiest for a person to know. Facts about ourselves are not peculiarly solid and resistant to skeptical dissolution. Our natures are, indeed, elusively insubstantial - notoriously less stable and less inherent than the natures of other things. And insofar as this is the case, sincerity itself is bullshit.-Harry G.

Navy Veteran Gets New Smile with Dental Implants
Navy veteran Billy Moore is finally sporting a winning smile, thanks to a little help from a kind-hearted cosmetic dentist. Bakersfield Now reported on the smile transformation of the former soldier, who was shot in the mouth in 2002 while on active duty, losing three front teeth. Moore was lucky to survive the shooting, considering the bullet landed just inches from his spine, but has been grappling with the embarrassment and inconvenience of missing teeth for far too long.
And now, after waiting nearly 13 years, Moore was given a fresh start with permanent dental implants provided by a California dentist who learned of the veteran's plight. Dr. Donald Trunkey offered his services free of charge – and the amazing results were a nice Christmas present, says Moore, who can now bite into an apple with abandon for the first time in years.
Moore is now happily adjusting to his new teeth, new look and new life. He says he's no longer self-conscious in public though the process took some time to complete. From start to finish, the whole implant process took around 8 months, but the outcome was definitely worth the wait.
Life-changing benefits of dental implants
In the context of appearance and functionality, dental implants are the most natural-looking and most durable treatment for missing teeth. Unlike dentures, permanent implants will never slip out of place or make noises while eating, laughing or speaking, and therefore boost confidence and ease in social situations.
On top of that, dental implants are built to last a lifetime, or upwards of 20-25 years with proper care and good oral hygiene. Compare this to bridges, which typically need to be replaced once every seven to ten years. While tooth implants may require periodic check-ups and adjustments by your dentist, they are the most long-lasting solution for missing teeth.
Implants let you enjoy the myriad pleasures of life without fretting about your teeth. And they are unique among dental restorations in that they help preserve jaw bone and can even help prevent future bone loss. Single and multiple tooth implants also stop adjacent healthy teeth from shifting out place, which would occur over time without intervention.
Next best option to your own natural teeth
An expert in cosmetic and restorative dentistry, Dr. David Blaustein helps residents throughout New York City get the smile they've always wanted. There's no need to suffer the effects of missing teeth or an imperfect smile, whether caused by an accident, injury or gum disease. Dental implants have a high success rate, with 98 percent of patients experiencing no complications as the titanium posts fuse with the bone.
If you're not a good candidate for a dental bridge or are tired of hassling with dentures, implants may be an ideal tooth replacement solution. Dr. Blaustein offers All on Six dental implants at his Chelsea office in Midtown Manhattan, where patients can take advantage of flexible payment plans and financing options.
To schedule an appointment at Chelsea Dental Aesthetics, please call 347-773-4917.

Is "Gunday" the worst movie ever?
What's the worst movie in history? "Battlefield Earth," featuring John Travolta as a dreadlocked alien? "Troll 2," a non-sequel featuring no trolls? "Ishtar," the only movie for rent in Hell's video store? Perhaps it's "Gigli", the movie that ruined Bennifer for all of us? According to voters on the Internet Movie Database, it's none of the above.
With a dreadful weighted rating of 1.4 out of 10 based on more than 44,000 votes, a 2014 Bollywood movie called "Gunday" is by far the worst movie in the IMDb universe.
A pretty silly, over-the-top Bollywood action flick about gun couriers that features a love triangle and lots of comical misunderstandings typical to the genre, "Gunday" has somehow found its way to the bottom of the biggest movie database in the world.
Not a single qualified movie besides "Gunday" rates worse than 1.8.
In India, it's the top-grossing February movie in Bollywood history.
"Gunday" offended a huge, sensitive, organized and social-media-savvy group of people who were encouraged to mobilize to protest the movie by giving it the lowest rating possible on IMDb.
In its first 11 minutes, the movie claims that India alone defeated Pakistan, and implies that an independent Bangladesh was simply a result of the fight.
Facebook groups were formed specifically to encourage irate Bangladeshis and others to down-vote the movie.
What's left is a movie that's been sentenced by an angry mob, and is unlikely to shed its apparent punishment any time soon.

French dramatic comedy, directed by Vincent Merietta, was released in 2014. At the heart of viewers' attention to three friends who decided to create their own, rather unusual club, called "Sadness". Guys prefer to ride on the old antique cars, like to solve ancient mysteries and secrets that lurk in the depths of the lake, and all of society can be called a club treasure hunters. The structure of the club consists of two siblings who grew up in completely different worlds. And the only thing that linked these two men, it is the memories of his father, who at an early age has thrown them. Mother guys certainly has not been able to forgive the betrayal of her husband, but time heals all wounds. In the eyes of the children's father chose his new girl, and being a connoisseur of feminine beauty, is not paying attention to the children.

Small and medium-sized businesses are the engine of the Canadian economy.
When it comes to mortgages, it hasn't always paid to be self-employed - because reducing your taxable income can make it difficult to qualify for the mortgage you deserve. We understand business owners because we're business owners, too.
What's better, we have a long list of institutional and private lenders that offer excellent mortgage options for self-employed Canadians. These lenders in Canada understand that self-employed individuals have tax write-offs creating significant reductions in their declared income. With these mortgage lenders, you will not be required to prove your income and a reasonable estimate of your annual income will be acceptable.
We're here to help you beat the banks ... give us a call today.
Having multiple lenders compete for your business is a great way to ensure you get the best rate for your situation. We deal with multiple lending institutions, including major banks, credit unions, trusts and other national and regional lenders, which means we can put significant negotiating power behind finding the best mortgage to fit your specific situation.

YouTuber Rules for Filming Inside Airports (YouTuber Law Series)?
Can I film my YouTube videos inside the airport?
Lior Leser, Esq.
Technology, Internet and Software Law
MY WEBSITE http://web20lawyer.com
QUESTIONS firstname.lastname@example.com
FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER https://twitter.com/web20lawyer
I've enjoyed many YouTube videos shot inside airports including some great ones by Casey Neistant and FouseyTube.
I was just watching one this morning when the question came up. What are the rules when video recording in the airport.
The answer to this question is not quite as straight forward as we'd like. It is based on two ideas.
(1) What is the exact function of the particular part of the airport that you are filming in?
(2) What is a "reasonable" restriction on your right to record while in that part of the airport.
The seminal case in this matter came in 1992, long before anyone ever thought of YouTube. It was a case between the Krishnas and Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.
In that case, the the Supreme Court held that while the airport is not a public forum, different level of reasonable when it comes to restricting speech must be attributed to different part of the area.
I know. There are many blogs out there that say that airports are public forums. According to the Supreme Court, these blogs are wrong.
Th Supreme court reviewed the historical nature of airports and determined that unlike public streets and parks, both of which have been identified as "traditional public fora," airports do not have among their various purposes the "free exchange of ideas.
Now that makes sense.
Although most airports do not ordinarily restrict public access, "publicly owned or operated property does not become a 'public forum' simply because members of the public are permitted to come and go at will
So..Airports are not public forums but does that mean, the government can restrict our right to record videos at will.
Not exactly. Government action is not absolute.
The Supreme Court consistently stated that restrictions on speech in nonpublic fora are valid only if they are "reasonable" and "not an effort to suppress expression."
So reasonableness is the standard. And How do we determine if any restrictions on recording is "reasonable"?
That's done in light of the purpose of the specific location and the surrounding circumstances.
You see. not all part of the airport is restricted to people who are actually traveling. A big part of a modern airport, outside of security, is available to both travelers and not travelers. Consider it a publicly owned mall and food court.
What sort of restrictions are "reasonable" there?
In the area outside of security, the only restrictions that are reasonable are ones that don't hinder the flow of people for the purpose of air traffic. So filming yourself talking while walking through the non-secure parts of the airport is fine.
What happens as you get close to the TSA security area. Well there the purpose is not only traffic flow but security as well. In that area, anything that you do that hinders or delays either function may be restricted.
What does that mean. It means, you should ask TSA personnel about filming in the area. In many airports, there are specific rules that "encourage" or require filming permits or advance notice. It is best to find out if your airport has those rules and provide advance notice to TSA of your intention to film.
Alternatively, at least let personal at security know. If they say no … i suggest that you refrain from filming. Any arguments with TSA or worse with Police can lead to delays and security concerns that may be the basis for preventing you from filming. Normally, they'll ask you not to film the monitors or some special security procedures.
Once you are past security, what are the rules? Well there you are in an area that is restricted to travelers only. There are some security function in that area too, but the predominate function is traffic flow and function. You should be free to film yourself in a v-log format. Again do not cause any delays, do not use the video to engage others unrelated to you or your group, and do not setup in area where you are hindering the flow of people. But don't forget that this is a secure area so … if asked … please listen to any restrictions and never start a commotion or argument with officials.
So … wherever you are in the airport ask yourself
(1) what is the function served by this area in the airport, and
(2) what reasonable restrictions can they place on my video recordings to prevent me from interfering with this functions.

Pants Off With Chip
In Los Angeles during the summer of 1985, Chip Foster created his first series of hand painted shorts and tee-shirts. During that time, he wasn't known for being an amazing and talented designer, he was just some crazy Canadian living in LA, selling clothes out of the back of his jeep. Not only did it seem unrealistic that someone was selling items out of the back of their jeep but Chip was actually able to sell those items and run out of them, almost overnight.
The vision from the beginning was simple, to make pieces that were authentic enough to be considered classic! Chip wanted to make people value the finer things in life, just like he did. It's not always just about the bigger picture, living in the moment and having something comfortable to wear is more important. For Chip, it is always about those finer details. The details that can make or break you, even without your knowledge.
Over the years, Chip made a name for himself by selling one of a kind vintage denim pieces out of his Melrose outpost Golf Punk. His knowledge of the history of denim and his eye for construction and fit made him a resource to some of Hollywood's biggest celebs and for shoppers who traveled to the Melrose store from across the globe.
In 2001, Chip expanded his business even further by launching Chip & Pepper with his twin brother. 13 years later, it is now sold in over 500 stores worldwide.
After 30 years of experience, Chip Foster's vision remains unchanged. In 2014 with the launch of Chip Foster's namesake collection his vision from 30 years ago remains the same, to sell denim that is both comfortable and versatile. The designer collection sets a new standard for denim and fills a space in the market for classically finished pieces that are rich in craftsmanship. The collection is inspired by California summers spent on the beach and the mountain lakes of Chip's native home, Canada. It features exquisite details such as the champagne cotton stitching, selvedge denim detailing and the signature shark tooth stamp and brass shackle from the front left belt loop make Chip Foster instantly recognizable as a new leader in designer denim.

Berlin, remnants of the cold war
This is it, preparations are over, and so are the goodbyes. We're in the train moving to the first destination of our world journey: Berlin. We will stay there for one and a half day, just long enough for some sightseeing, but keeping some speed, cause the weather isn't great in November.
Heading for the wallBeing in East Berlin, the first thing we want to do is to take a look at the Berlin Wall, or what is still left of it. A small stretch of wall is preserved and we walk to it. In the mean while, it got dark and the wall gives us an eerie feeling. We walk past it and wonder what it would be like not to be able to get behind it.
The remains of the wall are full of drawings, text and graffiti. Idealistic texts, but also neo-nazi ones. It makes this peace of wall not only a memory of the past, but also a proof of the fact that some people do not learn from it.
West Berlin: Kurfürstendam and Gedächtniskirche
The next day we use the public transportation to see the highlights of the city. We start in West Berlin, the Kurfürstendam. The symbol of capitalism, with its billboards of Mercedes and Cola, and its porn and peepshows. It doesn't really attract us (we're used to Amsterdam…) so we move on to the Gedächtniskirche. We are impressed by the ruin, but don't really like the modern tower of the new church.
East Berlin: Unter den Linden, Brandenburger Tor and ReichstagSince West Berlin doesn't have much to offer, we pass the Zoo to the park, confusingly enough named "Tiergarten" (which means zoo). Then we take the metro to "Unter den Linden", the static main street of the old Berlin. After the war, it became part of the Eastern part of the city, and this still shows with static old building (among which the Russian Embassy). At the end of this street, there's the Brandenburger Tor, unfortunately in renovation during our visit.
The Reichstag (house of parliament) also has a new part: a glass dome rising above the old facade. We don't quite like it, but at least the old facade is still there. Why do people think old buildings need a new look, anyway?
Checkpoint CharlieWe move on to Checkpoint Charlie, where the gate between East and West Berlin (that is, the American sector) is still visible. However, it is very difficult to imagine how it was. The Death Strip is now full with modern buildings. The museum inside is where you can experience the past.
AlexanderplatzAnother icon of East Berlin is Alexanderplatz, the main square. Nowadays, it's surrounded by restaurants and shops. There is very little here to remind us of the past. This square and the rest of East Berlin more and more become similar to the western part of the city. Old houses are renovated and new ones are built. Even the Trabants (old Russian cars) are scarce nowadays.
Oberbaum BrückeLast highlight we visit is the Oberbaum Brücke. This is the bridge between east and west where the citizens of the east could meet their relatives in the west once, in 1963. Knowing this, it makes the place a bit surreal.
For the unsuspecting visitor of Berlin, little remains of the former division into East and West. Yet, almost every highlight in the city has something to do with it. Earlier history of Berlin is bombed away, and so this city still breathes the remnants of the war. And it will probably stay that way.
Return from Berlin, remnants of the cold war to Travel Europe
