Coping With Pest Deer
Find out how to keep these garden interlopers away.
Step 1: Repellents
There are quite a few products with flavors and odors offensive to deer that gardeners can spray on plants or spread on the soil. Some (fermented egg yolks) offend deer's sense of smell; others (predator urines) frighten them. More of these products are licensed for use on ornamental plants than on food plants; follow directions for application. Home remedies abound, as well, including cayenne, hot-pepper sauce, talcum powder, blood meal, dog hair, and deodorant soap.
Step 2: Scare tactics
You can spend hundreds of dollars on ultrasonic noisemakers, motion-sensitive light systems, and water cannons to drive deer away, or a few cents on aluminum pie tins that flash in the sun. Radios cranked up to all-night talk shows or loud music can work, but check with the neighbors first. A barking dog (real or recorded) behind an invisible fence can persuade deer to stay away, too.
Step 3: Barriers
Permanent boundary fencing requires many tools: the fencing, fence posts, post-hole digger, and a strong crew to put it together. You may also need a permit to erect a fence in your community. Plastic screen netting is cheaper and easier to install.
An electric fence is a good choice for garden beds. Bait the fence with peanut butter, and when the deer come in for their snack, they'll learn that your gardens are to be avoided. To avoid injuries, alert neighborhood children and owners of small pets about your electric fence.
Caging tree saplings and young shrubs is a good option where you have just a few to protect. Once trees are older, they'll be more resistant to browsing deer.
Fabric row covers supported with hoops can protect vegetable beds. "Invisible" mesh netting can be erected over ornamentals to allow viewing but not chewing.
A single strand of monofilament fish line strung across a deer path creates an invisible force that can confuse the creatures enough to detour them around your garden.
Step 4: Plant choices
Food preferences of deer vary based on population pressures and available choices. Here is where information about local herds comes in handy. There is probably a list of plants that deer shun in your area. In general, deer tend to pass on ferns and ornamental grasses, plants with fuzzy foliage, and plants that taste of lemon, mint, or sage, and those that are bitter and pungent (hot and spicy).
Step 5: Plant wisely, fertilize judiciously
Choose plants best suited for your site. Stressed plants are more likely to be browsed. If you fertilize regularly for a lush look, you may attract deer and other pests to your garden, because excess nitrogen in plant tissues makes foliage more appetizing.
Use more than one method to protect your most valuable plants, and alter your strategy frequently to keep deer guessing.

Let ${\mathbb T}$ denote the ordinary $\Lambda$-adic Hecke algebra of say tame level $N$. If I specialize ${\mathbb T}$ to a classical weight $k \geq 2$, then it is proven by Hida that the result is the Hecke algebra of classical $p$-ordinary forms of weight $k$ and level $pN$. (Here by specialize I mean mod out by the prime ideal $p_k \subseteq \Lambda = {\mathbb Z}_p[[\Gamma]]$ generated by $[\gamma] - \gamma^{k-2}$ where $\gamma$ is a topogical generator of $\Gamma$.) I guess this is Hida's control theorem.
My question is the following: if one takes $\kappa$ to be some $p$-adic weight (but not necessarily classical), how can one describe ${\mathbb T}/ p_{\kappa} {\mathbb T}$?
I assume the answer is that the result is the Hecke algebra of the space of overconvergent modular forms of weight $\kappa$ and slope 0 -- but I don't have a proof of this nor a reference. Either would be greatly appreciated!

LONDON (Reuters) - Disgraced cyclist Lance Armstrong faces a tough battle to salvage his image as the usual strategy by fallen stars of confession, apology and making amends may not be enough to appease an angry public, according to crisis management experts.
Banned for life and stripped of his race titles, Armstrong will break his silence over his alleged drug use in an interview aired on Thursday with the queen of confessions, U.S. talk show host Oprah Winfrey.
The silence was seen by some as a deliberate move to allow for all the accusations to be made against him so he could prepare himself for any possible question and then go public to explain himself in a controlled and friendly environment with Oprah.
But experts in public relations and crisis management said Armstrong's bid for forgiveness was far from guaranteed to succeed due to the unprecedented scale of the scandal after authorities uncovered a decade of drug use and lying.
Armstrong became an international hero and inspiration after surviving cancer to win seven Tour de France titles and set up the Livestrong cancer foundation while aggressively pursuing anyone who tried to expose his cheating.
Edward Adler, partner at RLM Finsbury that specialises in crisis management, said Armstrong needed to kickstart his attempt to regain support by taking full responsibility for his actions, apologising unreservedly and sincerely with Oprah.
"The jury will be out on whether this works or not because there are so many other issues here, with law suits and other stakeholders, and he needs to convince people that he is a good guy," said Adler.
"But if he wants to compete again, and it appears that he does, then he has to try to put this behind him. But this is a very difficult one for people to get over."
Armstrong, 41, will join a list of fallen stars who have gone public with mea culpa confessions after high-profile crashes from favour. Such indiscretions usually fall in three categories - financial or sexual impropriety, and doping, in the case of sport.
For many of these, some powerful, carefully scripted image-rehab designed by professional teams has helped them regain the public's regard but none have needed to overcome the extent of Armstrong's deceit over his use of performance-enhancing drugs.
Armstrong faced a harder task than other disgraced heroes like Tiger Woods or Bill Clinton to return to favour, experts said.
U.S. President Clinton admitted to the American public in a televised speech in 1998 that he had had a relationship with White House intern Monica Lewinsky that was wrong and he was "solely and completely responsible".
Golfer Woods, in a controlled televised statement in 2010, apologised for his "irresponsible and selfish" behaviour after a car crash outside his Florida home triggered stunning revelations about his serial infidelity.
British actor Hugh Grant told TV chat show host Jay Leno in 1995 that he did a "bad thing" after he was caught with a prostitute while engaged to actress Elizabeth Hurley.
Late-night TV host David Letterman apologised on his own show in 2009 to his wife and staff after it was revealed he had had sexual relationsips with female staff, saying when "it's your responsibility, you try to fix it".
Armstrong, however, was not seen as a totally lost cause due to his charitable work, such as setting up the Livestrong cancer foundation.
"But this situation is extreme. Lance Armstrong has to give a full, unabridged apology and can't blame anyone else," said Lance Ignon, co-director of the New York office of strategic communications firm Sitrick & Co.
"It will take time and a great deal of energy on his part .. but we have seen other extreme cases where the force of someone's personality and their intellect can help restore their reputation."
Rebecca Hopkins, managing director of sports PR agency ENS Ltd that handles crisis media management, said Armstrong's decision to go public with Oprah indicated he would probably be seeking redemption from fans who admired his charitable work rather than the sports community.
"If he manages to portray himself as a bit of a victim, more wronged than wronging, then his road to recovery will be quicker as the public can be quite forgiving," said Hopkins.
"But sports fan hate cheats and his fall from grace in that world will be more long standing. He would be best placed to focus on charity work and try to redeem himself in that area."

If you're looking for a fun alternative to regular gift wrapping paper that isn't as wasteful, why not try the shirt off your back? Okay, so you don't actually have to use the one you're wearing right now; any old shirt that you no longer need will do - as long as it has long sleeves. We applied a technique from the ancient Japanese art of furoshiki (cloth-wrapping) to a shirt to create a simple satchel to present and carry a gift in, and you can too with our DIY instructions. We're sure that the recipient will be intrigued by this unique packaging, which they can reuse or even wear, and you'll always be able to remind them of the time that you gave them the shirt off your own back.
– A long sleeved shirt. The thinner the shirt, the easier it will be to turn it into a satchel.
– A gift to wrap (one that will fit in the center of your shirt with at least 6 inches or so to spare on the sides will work best)
Lay your shirt flat on the floor. If your shirt has buttons, we suggest laying it button side up, but after you try out your furoshiki satchel once, you can see which you prefer better. You can always untie it and redo it!
Orient your shirt the way the one in the pic above is with the lower corner facing away from you. Then place your gift in the the center of your shirt so that the edges of it are perpendicular to the corners of your shirt. In other words, the corner of your gift should not be facing the same way as the bottom corners of your shirt (see pic).
Fold the top 1/6th of your shirt or so down (see pic) so that your shirt looks more like a square.
Fold the corner of the shirt closest to you over your gift so that it covers it and then tuck it under just a bit.
Then tuck the fabric under your gift just a bit.
Next grab your sleeves and gather them together tightly towards your gift.
Tie the sleeves in a knot at the top of your gift. Try to make sure they are even on both sides.
Once you've tied your knot, fold the far corner of your shirt over it to hide it.
Then take one of your sleeves (it doesn't matter which) and twist it until it's taught. While holding that sleeve so that it doesn't unravel, twist the other sleeve up too.
Tie the ends of your sleeves together. You can leave your knot as is or you can create a more decorative rosette like this one by tucking the edges in under one another.
And there you have it! Pick your furoshiki satchel up and deliver it to a friend.

The Fox Creek High School Board of Directors has voted to terminate Dr. Tim Murph's employment with the school.
Murph, the school's principal, has been on paid administrative leave since May. According to an Aiken Standard Freedom of Information Act request, the reason was "allegations and concerns regarding school management and leadership."
In a special meeting on Monday night the Board made the decision to move forward with Murph's termination.
Greg Hurt, the president of the Fox Creek High School Board of Directors, issued the following statement: "This statement is to advise that the Fox Creek High School Board of Directors board had a special called meeting on July 22 and voted to terminate Employee A's employment with Fox Creek High School. Employee A, through his attorney, waived his right to attend and participate in tonight's meeting in executive session. However, Employee A has requested a due process hearing before the Board of Trustees should the board decide to terminate Employee A's contract. The Board cannot discuss details of this manner because it involves a confidential personnel matter; however, we can inform you that the Board will schedule a due process hearing in this matter at a mutually convenient time between both parties."
Herb Louthian, Murph's attorney, said there is no cause for his client's termination.
"Dr. Murph has done an excellent job as principal of Fox Creek High School, and he is surprised and shocked by the Board's actions," Louthian said. "We will grieve the Board's decision through the internal grievance process and challenge any reasons they present for his termination. And, if the Board does not reverse its initial decision, we will file suit."
Hurt had no comment when asked if the board would pursue any legal action against Murph.
Scott Rodgers is the news editor at the North Augusta Star and has been with the paper since January 2013 after previously working at the Aiken Standard. He is a graduate of Alvernia University and currently attends Drexel University.

President Obama's Affordable Care Act, which was deemed constitutional Thursday by the Supreme Court, includes some major tax changes that will take effect next year. Here's a refresher course on how sweeping health-care reform will impact individual taxpayers like you.
Medicare Tax
Also See
Right now, the Medicare tax on salary and/or self-employment (SE) income is 2.9%. If you're an employee, 1.45% is withheld from your paychecks, and the other 1.45% is paid by your employer. If you're self-employed, you pay the whole 2.9% yourself.
Starting in 2013, an extra 0.9% Medicare tax will be charged on: (1) salary and/or SE income above $200,000 for an unmarried individual, (2) combined salary and/or SE income above $250,000 for a married joint-filing couple, and (3) salary and/or SE income above $125,000 for those who use married filing separate status. For self-employed individuals, the additional 0.9% Medicare tax hit will come in the form of a higher SE bill.
Medicare Tax on Investment Income
Right now, the maximum federal income tax rate on long-term capital gains and dividends is only 15%. Starting in 2013, the maximum rate on long-term gains is scheduled to go up to 20% and the maximum rate on dividends is scheduled to increase to 39.6% as the so-called Bush tax cuts expire.
But that's not all. Also starting in 2013, all or part of the net investment income, including long-term capital gains and dividends, collected by higher-income folks can get socked with an additional 3.8% "Medicare contribution tax." Therefore, the maximum federal rate on long-term gains for 2013 and beyond will actually be 23.8% (versus the current 15%) and the maximum rate on dividends will be a whopping 43.4% (versus the current 15%). Yikes!
The additional 3.8% Medicare tax will not apply unless your adjusted gross income (AGI) exceeds: (1) $200,000 if you're unmarried, (2) $250,000 if you're a married joint-filer, or (3) $125,000 if you use married filing separate status.
The additional 3.8% Medicare tax will apply to the lesser of your net investment income or the amount of AGI in excess of the applicable threshold. Net investment income includes interest, dividends, royalties, annuities, rents, income from passive business activities, income from trading in financial instruments or commodities, and gains from assets held for investment like stock and other securities. (Gains from assets held for business purposes are not subject to the extra tax.)
For example, a married joint-filing couple with AGI of $265,000 and $60,000 of net investment income would pay the 3.8% tax on $15,000 (the amount of excess AGI). If the same couple has AGI of $350,000, they would pay the 3.8% tax on $60,000 (the entire amount of their net investment income).
$2,500 Cap on Health-Care FSA Contributions
Right now, there's no tax-law limit on contributions to your employer's healthcare flexible spending account (FSA) plan (although many plan impose their own limits). Amounts you contribute to the FSA plan are subtracted from your taxable salary. Then you can use the funds to reimburse yourself tax-free to cover qualified medical expenses. Good deal! Starting in 2013, however, the maximum annual FSA contribution for each employee will be capped at only $2,500.
Higher Threshold for Itemized Medical Expense Deductions
Right now, you can claim an itemized deduction for medical expenses paid for you, your spouse, and your dependents, to the extent the expenses exceed 7.5% of AGI. Starting in 2013, the hurdle is raised to 10% of AGI. However, if either you or your spouse is age 65 or older at yearend, the 10%-of-AGI threshold will not take effect until 2017.
That said, the fate of these four ObamaCare-related tax increases may hinge on what the Supreme Court decides next month. So maybe you have more reasons to be interested in that decision than you initially thought. Stay tuned. I'll keep you posted.

Nov. 22, 2002
by ussoccer.com
It's called "the final pass." It's the pass that leads to a goal and usually, it has to be perfect. But more often than not, it's blocked, deflected, flies too far, or falls too short. Often it skips across the turf to the goalkeeper or runs out of bounds.
But when that pass does find its mark, when it falls just perfectly to a forward, bounces with just the right spin, splits two defenders with just the right weight, and unbalances a defense, it creates that rare and delicious moment in a game - a goal scoring chance. And it's always followed by a huge roar from the fans. In fact, to see that perfect final pass is why most soccer aficionados come to the stadiums in the first place.
Meet Aly Wagner: purveyor of the final pass. The artist of the assist. The sage of the set-up.
One of a handful of young and wonderfully talented players on the U.S. Women's National Team who are shooting for a spot on their first Women's World Cup team next year, Wagner is bringing a set of skills to the U.S. midfield that make the USA's collection of ridiculously talented forwards even more dangerous.
"I really don't remember when I started to take pride in my passing, but I've always enjoyed it," said Wagner, who won three youth club national titles with the Central Valley (Calif.) Mercury, one of the finest youth teams in history. "I played with great players on the youth level and it was fun to get them the ball. Now, with the national team, all of the forwards make such great runs and are so active, it makes it easier for me to find them."
U.S. National Team coaches have long been aware of Wagner's talent. She was a member of the U.S U-16 National Team and the 1999 Women's World Cup and 2000 Olympic residency camps, but was one of the last players released before both teams were picked. She was the U.S. Soccer's 2000 Chevy Young Female Athlete of the Year and has helped the Americans to three U-21 Nordic Cup championships in her career.
But it is just now that she is finding her niche on the full national team.
Wagner played in all five matches at the 2002 CONCACAF Women's Gold Cup, logging complete games in three, and scored one goal with five assists. Her goal in the first game against Mexico got the USA started in the tournament and her assist in sudden death overtime to Mia Hamm in the championship game ended it.
Against Panama in the USA's final group game, she set up Tiffeny Milbrett three times in the first half on the way to Milbrett's record-tying five-goal performance. All three passes put Milbrett in perfect position to finish against the overmatched Panamanians.
"As far as skill, speed and goal scoring ability, Tiffeny Millbrett is probably second to none in the world," said defender Brandi Chastain, who like Wagner hails from San Jose, Calif., and has served as a role model to the young midfielder. "But when you couple her with a player who can pass the ball exactly where it needs to be in Aly Wagner, you have a deadly combination."
"I've had the chance to start a few games recently, and it's been great," said Wagner. "But you can never get comfortable on the National Team when there are so many great players fighting for spots. The WUSA is a great proving ground for players and everyone needs to be sharp at all the times to keep earning minutes."
Her rise to a place in the midfield for the United States was not a meteoric one. Wagner has endured two major knee surgeries - one that forced her to red-shirt her freshman season at Santa Clara - and numerous other nagging injuries, but battled through them all. In the process, she learned how to become a professional, something she will become officially in early February when she will likely be the first pick in the 2003 WUSA Draft.
"In the latter part of my college career, (SCU head coach) Jerry Smith has really forced me to become more professional, and now with the National Team I see how important it is to conduct yourself in a professional way all the time," said Wagner. "Sometimes, taking a day off to rest is more important than trying to push through an injury, like I would have in the past. You're not helping the team if you are on the injured list. I've seen from the veterans on the team how to be responsible in taking care of their bodies, in dealing with the press and the fans. I've really learned a lot in the past year."
Wagner will end her college career sometime over the next four weeks as she leads the defending NCAA champion Santa Clara Broncos back into the playoffs. It will be a hard script to follow after a dream season last year in which she was named Offensive MVP of the Final Four and put up incredible numbers.
She scored an amazing 17 goals from midfield during the 2001 college season, while handing out 20 assists in leading the Broncos to their first NCAA title. She scored the winning goal in the championship game, a 1-0 victory over UNC, and set up two goals in the 3-2 overtime win over Florida in the semifinal.
In her 32 games for the full U.S. National Team, she has scored eight goals, and her 11 assists this year led the team.
"I'm starting to feel much more at ease on the field with the National Team and having confidence in my own decision making," said Wagner. "It used to be that if I made one mistake, I would let it bother me and relive it over and over, making it bigger than it really was. Now, I see that all the players make mistakes. You must take risks on the field, and that can lead to missing on a pass or a shot. You just have to have confidence in yourself and your teammates and remember that the game is 90 minutes long."
It remains to be seen if Wagner can find the success and championships of gifted playmakers of U.S. Women's National Team past such as Shannon Higgins and Michelle Akers, as well as current captain Julie Foudy, but there is no doubt that she has the talent and desire.
"Every soccer player - girl or boy - wants to play in a World Cup or a world championship," said Wagner. "I've fallen short the past two times (1999 WWC and 2000 Olympics), but hopefully during the next year I can keep improving and get to a level where I can make an impact and help the team in China. That would be a dream come true for me."

For Seniors: Adjust the Volume in iPod
You play audio (music, podcasts, and audiobooks) on your iPad 2 using the iPod app. While the audio is playing, you can adjust the volume to a comfortable listening level.
In addition to being able to adjust the volume in iPod, during playback you can skip to the next or previous item, and even skip through the playback if you like. When needed, you can pause the playback for a while and then restart it at that same point.
With iPod open, tap on a piece of music, a podcast, or an audiobook to play it.
The item begins playing, and playback controls appear.
Press and drag the button on the Volume slider to the right for more volume or to the left for less volume.
The controls in the middle allow you to control the playback. The first control plays the previous item, while the last control plays the next item. The control in the middle of the set of three pauses the playback or resumes it, if the playback is currently paused.
If the volume is set high and you're still having trouble hearing, consider getting a headset. It cuts out extraneous noises and may improve the sound quality of what you're listening to, as well as adding stereo to iPad's mono speaker. A 3.5mm stereo headphone is compatible; insert it in the headphone jack at the top of your iPad.

Q My question is about the free credit score reports.
You said that you can go to AnnualCreditReport.com for a free report.
I went to that site, and after reluctantly completing the confidential information, I hit continue.
The next thing to happen is that site says your scores are ready for viewing. Then it asks for a $1 refundable fee on my debit or credit card. Then in fine print it says once I agree, I agree to a monthly charge of $29.95 to be charged on my card until I call to have it stopped.
Where is the totally free site that you give your information and you are shown your scores right away?
Or are all these sites a scam for enrollment?
� Anonymous
A AnnualCreditReport.com is the correct site. Everyone is entitled to a free credit report from each of the three major credit reporting agencies � Equifax, TransUnion and Experian. You can order all three at once on the site or get one every four months so you can try to pick up any questionable activity on your credit report more quickly.
However, you are not entitled to a free credit score. It can be confusing when you�re looking for your free credit report and a link appears at the top that asks if you want your �Free Credit Score.�
As you noticed, free isn�t exactly free in that case.
For the �free� credit score, free means you can see it all you want after you�ve agreed to pay a monthly subscription to a credit monitoring service.
Credit scores are different from credit reports.
A credit score is built from your credit report � allowing a lender to view how credit-worthy you are. The higher the score, the more likely you�ll get a loan, and get it with favorable terms.
The credit report shows how much credit you have and have had and whether you pay bills on time.
If you�re interested in your score on the most widely used credit scale, you can buy yours directly from Fair Isaac Corp. � at the MyFico.com website � for less than $20.
You can also see alternate versions of your score for free on sites such as CreditKarma.com.

Non-intrusive Powerbuilder Integration Is a Reality
Powerbuilder was a leader in its space. And with its large install base, many customers are wondering how to migrate or integrate with their Powerbuilder application. Powerbuilder is a powerful environment that has been used in mission critical applications. Due to the sheer complexity of the Powerbuilder applications, seemingly trivial tasks can take many keystrokes and navigation sequences.
If you need APIs to integrate your Powerbuilder application with other systems, Jacada offers an economical alternative that you should know about.
Powerbuilder Applications do not usually provide an open API to read and write data from the application, perform certain functions and automate tasks. Instead of embarking on a significant and expensive customization exercise, you can use Jacada Fusion to integrate to your Powerbuilder applications. In essence, Jacada Fusion provides you with an Powerbuilders API.
Jacada Fusion allows you to selectively open functionality within the Powerbuilder application and reuse this functionality through an open standard web services API, even where no API existed before! Even better, transactions can be recorded to automate a sequence of tasks directly on the Powerbuilder application. Imagine how much more productive your agents can be if you, for example, create a transaction that automatically calculates a pro-rated bill and rekeys all the information needed by Oracle Forms directly into the Powerbuilder application. Companies can save hundereds of thousands of dollars in reduced Average Handle Time alone.
The key concept behind integrating to Powerbuilder is what we call our non-invasive technology. In essence, this means that you can integrate into your Powerbuilder applications without needing access to the source and without obtaining costly customization services or additional software licensing fees (Of course, you need to be sure you are not violating any of your terms of service with your vendor). Without changing anything in the original application, and without needing to access the source code, Jacada Fusion provides Powerbuilder integration by enabling you to automate interactions with the application and 'drive' the system, as a user would, navigating a series of Windows forms, inserting or retrieving data as required. Jacada Fusion exposes these interactions as Web services that can be integrated into any J2EE or .NET composite application in a scalable and secure fashion.
SOA and Powerbuilder Integration
By service-enabling your Powerbuilder application, you can resue these services as part of your composite application development iniatives. Jacada Fusion provides for the rapid adoption of service-oriented architectures (SOA), enabling IT to deliver new functionality as quickly as the business demands. When you select which parts of your Powerbuilder functionality you want to expose as Web Services, you can then reuse these web services as part of a broader SOA initative.
Benefits of Powerbuilder Integration
This Powerbuilder integration technology helps organizations unify multiple applications into one desktop presentation, improve efficiency and accuracy by eliminating redundant data entry, streamline business processes, and reduce maintenance costs. Imagine taking complex Oracle Forms operations and reducing them to an automated sequence of tasks!

Yes. You must include all unemployment compensation received in the income you report on your taxes each year. You should receive a Form 1099-G, and the total unemployment paid to you will show in box 1. You can choose to have federal income tax withheld from your unemployment by completing Form W-4V, Voluntary Withholding Request and submitting it to your unemployment office. The taxes will be withheld at 10% of your payment. Additional state taxes may be necessary depending on where you live. For a copy of Form W-4V click here.
Repayment of Unemployment Compensation
If you repaid in the current tax year any unemployment compensation you received for the year, you can subtract the amount you repaid from the total amount received. You will make that entry in our program on the Income > Unemployment Compensation > Repayment screen. If the repayment was less than $3,000 enter it as an additional Miscellaneous Deduction. If greater than $3,000 it is claimed on the line for "Repayment under claim of right". For further information see Publication 525.

If you you haven't seen our Halloween craft ideas, then I'll summarize them for you on this post. Allie of The Four-Eyed Wonder and I did a collaboration for Halloween and this is what our party setup looked like:
We made Brownie Cupcakes with peanut butter frosting, which you can check out the recipe here on my blog. And then we decorated the cupcakes with these cute Witch Feet Toppers. I also did a tutorial on how to make Spider Centerpieces. Since I wrapped the spider with crepe paper, a commenter said that it's a crossover between a mummy and a spider!
For the cups, we decorated them by simply using washi tape in Halloween colors. Start from the bottom then tuck the washi tape under the lip of the paper cup. Allie then made these Broomstick Stirrers out raffia and rubber band. It totally complements our witch feet toppers. It's like tiny witches flew around, had a bad landing and crashed everywhere on our party setup. Haha!
For our goody bags, I used kraft paper and construction paper to make these cute kitty paper bags. We drew the mouth of the kitty with a black marker to make that :3 smile.
As for our background, we cut strips of crepe paper and used tape to stick them on the wall. We also made our photobooth props using construction paper, barbecue sticks, and a bit of tape. Then we added balloons here and there to add more color (as if our background isn't colorful enough).

Gitmo detainee release draws criticism
The recovery of kidnapped Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl is complete, but the debate over the price of trading the soldier for five Guantanamo Bay prisoners continues.
Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Mich., told CNN's State of the Union on Sunday that the release of five detainees from the military prison inCuba could encourage terrorists across the globe to seek more releases by seizing Americans.
Rogers, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, said he is happy for the Bergdahl family, but "the methodology" of negotiating with terrorists "is very troublesome."
HAGEL: Bergdahl's life was in danger
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, speaking on ABC's This Week, said the administration may have "put a price" on the heads of other U.S. troops.
"I do not think the way to deal with terrorists is through releasing other violent terrorists," he said.
National Security adviser Susan Rice, also on CNN, said the Obama administration's primary concern was to rescue Bergdahl. "As always," she said, "the United States doesn't leave a man or a woman on the battlefield."
Even if it involves terrorists,"we still have a sacred obligation to bring that person back," Rice said.
MORE:What we know about detainees transferred to free Bergdahl
Rice said the government of Qatar — which brokered the deal — has assured the United States that the five released detainees "will be carefully watched" and "their ability to move will be constrained."
"This was the right thing to do," Rice added.
In a statement Saturday, Obama said "the Qatari government has given us assurances that it will put in place measures to protect our national security."
Rogers and other Republicans also accused the Obama administration of violating the law by not giving Congress the required 30-day notice for release of prisoners from Guantanamo Bay.
Rice, making a separate appearance on ABC's This Week, said "this is a very special situation," and officials had "an urgent and acute" concern that Bergdahl's life was in danger.
"We did not have 30 days to wait," Rice said.

Delete or Edit Contacts in the Windows 8 People App
It's easy to delete or edit a contact in the Windows 8 People app. If someone has fallen from your social graces or just changed their phone number, you can make edits by following these steps:
2Click a contact.
The contact's page appears full-screen.
3Right-click a blank part of the contact's page to summon the App bar.
The App bar appears as a strip along the screen's bottom.
4Click Delete to delete the contact or click Edit to update a contact's information. Then click Save.
Clicking Delete removes the person completely. However, the Delete button appears only for contacts you've added by hand. If they've been added through Facebook or another online social media site, you have to delete them by removing them from your contacts on that site. Unfriend them on Facebook or unfollow them on Twitter, for example, to remove them from the People app.
Clicking Edit fetches the screen shown, where you can update or delete any information before clicking Save to save your changes.
To send a quick message to a contact in your People app, click her name. When her contact information appears, click the Send Email button.

Blitzen Trapper - Words and Music - 2010
6.28.11 11:35am
The Portland rockers Blitzen Trapper incorporate so many different genres into their sound you could call them kitchen sink rock, and after the success of their 2008 album 'Furr,' and tour with Fleet Foxes, a lot of critics have been starting to call them talented. Their new album is 'Destroyer of the Void,' which brought the sextet into studio-A for a performance and chat with Alisa Ali. [6/16/10]

Portugal's individuality is both its unique selling point and the reason it continues to suffer from a lack of consumer awareness of the quality of its wines. A country replete with indigenous grape varieties and some of the world's most interesting blended wines, Portugal has long shunned the adoption of international varieties. The wines therefore defy imitation and possess an incredible sense of place.
In the granitic riverbanks of Douro, Tinta Roriz, or Tempranillo, produces wines which range from light-bodied and fruity to rich, meaty and complex. Touriga Franca and Touriga Nacional, grapes famously used in the production of Port, produce robust, herbal reds with velvety tannins and ripe red fruit. Further south the vast vineyards of rural Alentejo are our latest area of discovery where the purity and balance of both the red and whites have been of great delight.

BIRTHDAY GUY: Actor James Caviezel was born in Mount Vernon, Wash., on this day in 1968. This birthday guy made waves with his portrayal of Jesus in Mel Gibson's controversial 2004 film "The Passion of the Christ." He has also starred in movies such "Outlander," "Deja Vu" and "Bobby Jones: Stroke of Genius." In 2009, Caviezel starred in the mini-series "The Prisoner."
ARIES (March 21-April 19): If it isn't broken, don't fix it. Your charming manners can attract others to your side, so this is a good time to seek support or impress others if you stifle a desire to implement drastic changes to procedures.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Concentrate on friendships instead of love. Those closest to you may seem to lack interest if you push sensual buttons today. Put your energy into getting more organized and focus on business needs.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Casual conversation is not necessarily concise communication. Your message may be misunderstood whether you are trying to untangle a billing problem or finalizing a contract. Check things twice.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Use wooden nickels for firewood. Remain alert as money could slip through your fingers. Don't be disappointed if your efforts to please others fall short or if you sense insincerity. Wait to make key moves.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Keep those extra irons out of the fire. Forceful sales tactics might rub others the wrong way. Although it is Monday and time to start a new workweek, you may quickly find you are spread too thin.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Crosscurrents in the background can drag you down. It is easy to think you are right when you are wrong, so it is best to reserve making a decision on important issues. Keep your money in your wallet today.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Fated meetings of the romantic kind might be in the stars. Someone special might show up on your doorstep, but you must let the proper conventions slow things down. Avoid rushing into someone's arms.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): A mystery may cloud a key relationship. Wait out temporary disruptions and opposition to your plans. It might be important to steer clear of deals with associates who may have ulterior motives.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Money talks, they say, but all yours seems to say is goodbye. You should be tough on yourself. Rein in a tendency to indulge in luxury items or to take unnecessary investment risks.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don't let tiny misunderstandings undermine your confidence. Others sense that you are intensely preoccupied or feel that you are enveloped in an air of mystery that is both intriguing and unsettling.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): It pays to be discriminating. In your frame of mind, you may accept the first offer that comes your way. A love of the luxurious might tempt you to spend your paycheck on things you can't afford.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Pull up. A passing period of planetary turmoil may send relationships off into a tailspin. Be patient as this will pass, but it might be tempting to slam the door on your way out or to renege on a promise.
IF SEPTEMBER 26 IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: You are in peak form to appeal to the public and make your mark in the year ahead. Don't resist change, especially this month and in February, as the only things that will alter are things that have outworn their welcome. During January, your popularity hits a peak and everyone only sees your good side so that is an excellent time for networking or romance, but in business matters your lack of common sense can prove costly. In June, you may have a chance to land a lucrative position or otherwise improve your circumstances. Make key moves such as buying a house or signing a business contact in late June when a guardian angel seems to watch over you and when your fervent prayers could be answered.

Though football commitments don't count for much in July, UCLA's slow start to the 2014 cycle has nevertheless disappointed some fans.
The decommitment of offensive lineman Jermaine Eluemunor won't help. A top JUCO recruit who had picked the Bruins in early June, Eluemunor starred at Lackawanna C.C. in Scranton, Pa., just a few years after moving from London, England. The 6-foot-6, 300-pound tackle had openly discussed his interest in other schools for weeks, and tweeted Wednesday that he had cut UCLA from his list. He will choose either Arkansas or Ohio State on Friday.
JUCO lineman Dominick Jackson also flipped to Alabama in late June a few weeks after initially picking the Bruins. UCLA now has four commitments in the 2014 class, all of them wide receivers.

The exhausting, overlong search for an actor to play Captain America on the big screen is finally over, with the role going to a member of the Fantastic Four.
Chris Evans needed a couple of days to wrestle with the decision before finally getting on board tp play Captain America/Steve Rogers in the Marvel production, reported Heat Vision.
The list of names have been floated in connection with this role are laughably long: John Krasinski, Michael Cassidy ("Smallvile"), Patrick Flueger ("The 4400" and "Brothers"), Scott Porter ("Friday Night Lights"), Wilson Bethel ("Generation Kill") and Mike Vogel ("Cloverfield") and Gossip Boy Chace Crawford, just to name a few.
Compounding the frustration over the length and scope of the search is the fact that they appear to have chosen the wrong guy. For starters, Evans is already in the Marvel firmament as Johnny Storm/The Human Torch from the "Fantatsic Four" films. In choosing Evans, they've simply created a new casting problem, though admittedly one that isn't so important -- because, you know, this stuff is important.
And Evans lacks a certain gravitas that a character like Captain America requires. Cap is so square he makes Superman look like the Fonz. Maybe Evans has got the chops to go earnest/serious/patriot nerd -- the folks at Marvel must have seen something in his screen test -- but he has yet to share that with the rest of the world.
All that said, the guy is ripped and all kinds of man-pretty.
Evans will next be seen in "The Losers," about a band of bank thieves, and "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World," as one of the seven ex-boyfriends Michael Cera must conquer to win his one true love. Both are comic book adaptations.

(Reuters) – Researchers have developed an implantable sensor that measures blood sugar continuously and transmits the information without wires – a milestone, they said, in diabetes treatment.
The device worked in one pig for more than a year and in another for nearly 10 months with no trouble, they reported in the journal Science Translational Medicine.
It takes the diabetes field a step closer to development of an "artificial pancreas" – a device that can replace natural functions to control how the body handles blood sugar.
And it would be handy for people who need to check blood sugar daily, such as patients with type 2 diabetes, the team at the University of California San Diego and nearby privately held GlySens Inc wrote.
"You can run the device for a year or more with it constantly working, and recording glucose quite satisfactorily," bioengineering professor David Gough, who led the study, said in a statement.
"We hope to begin the first human trial in a few months," Gough added in a telephone interview.
He said his team has been testing such experimental devices in pigs for 31 years.
Medical device makers have been working to develop a so-called artificial pancreas to deliver insulin to patients with type 1 diabetes, an autoimmune disease in which the body destroys its own ability to make insulin and thus to properly break down sugar.
Even with treatment, eventually blood vessels and organs get damaged and patients can lose vision, organs and limbs. An estimated 3 million Americans have type 1 diabetes, usually diagnosed in childhood or in young adults.
Gough's team said their device could also work for people with type 2 diabetes, which is far more common and becoming worse. An estimated 180 million people globally have diabetes.
The implant used in the pig study is about 1.5 inches (3.8 centimeters) in diameter, and 5/8 inch (12.70 cm) thick. "We hope to make it smaller in the future," Gough said.
It transmits 10 to 12 feet (3 to 4 meters).
The device uses a sensor that detects oxygen in the tissue where it is implanted to measure glucose. "The present artificial pancreases use needle-like sensors or wire-like sensors," Gough said. "This device is likely to be more appealing to people with diabetes. There is nothing protruding from the body."
To inject insulin or use an insulin pump, patients need input on blood glucose levels. Too little insulin and patients get damage from hyperglycemia, or too much blood sugar.
Too much insulin and hypoglycemia – dangerously low blood sugar – can send patients into a coma.
Gough foresees ways to have the glucose monitor send its signals to cell phones.
"There are parents with diabetic children who spend their nights worrying that their child in a nearby bedroom may go into nocturnal hypoglycemia," he said. An implanted sensor could wake a parent if the child's glucose levels dropped to a dangerous level.
The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, which helped pay for the study, has been working with several companies to create a seamless artificial pancreas. It works with U.S. drugmaker Johnson & Johnson's unit Animas, which makes insulin pumps, and DexCom Inc , which makes continuous glucose monitoring devices.
Smiths Medical, a unit of Smiths Group Plc, Abbott Diabetes Care, a unit of Abbott Laboratories Inc, and Medtronic Inc also make glucose and insulin devices.
Gough and colleagues at the university founded GlySens and the company collaborates with the institution.

Shares in Samsung Electronics rose 2 percent on Monday, driven by expectations that the South Korean technology giant will continue to post solid earnings after its record-high profit in the July to September period, analysts said.
Some analysts raised their target prices for Samsung, expecting a strong recovery in its memory chip business to help offset slowing growth of smartphone profits in the coming quarters.
Samsung shares rose as much as 2 percent to 1,478,000 Korean won ($1,400) per share, the highest intraday level in a week.

Action Learning (sets) – Reg Revens An experiential learning methodology
What is Action Learning?
Action learning is based upon the concept of learning by reflection (or reviewing) on an experience
Action Learning & Action Learning Sets
Introduction to Action learning
A definition of Action Learning
Action Learning Set Who is in it?
Participating in an Action Learning Set
Introduction to Action Learning and Action Learning Sets
When devising a management development programme, it is important to ensure that participants are not only 'taught' or trained, but that they have an opportunity to put learning into action. Experience has shown us that unless we practice new skills and ideas soon after a programme we tend to forget the lessons learnt.
Action Learning is one of the methods effective programmes use to help participants apply learning. Other formal approaches will include your Line manager and your mentor.
Action Learning works best when a 'Set' of individuals are put together as a support group for the duration of the learning activity.
Action learning is a form of experiential learning, where " Experiential Learning is the process of making meaning from direct experience"
So what is Action Learning?
Action learning is based upon the concept of learning by reflection (or reviewing) on an experience. It is underpinned by the cycle of experiential learning as shown below, where the stages of reviewing and concluding are worked through with the Set.
In practice many of us tend to short circuit this cycle and often ship the reviewing phase as it is often difficult to do out of context.
Action learning will help 'close the loop' and ensure our learning is as effective as possible (more about learning cycles in module one). Action Learning Sets are primarily focused on the individual's learning.
An Action Learning programme involves the following key elements:
- The Set: a group of 6 – 8 people who meet regularly.
- The Projects: each participant works on a project or task over the life of the set
The Set Adviser: a facilitator who helps the group to work and learn
Although Action Learning is flexible, it is not unstructured and focuses on the individual and their need NOT on the programme.
Participants on Action Learning Programmes have quoted many benefits which they have gained from action
- learning a more 'disciplined' way of working
- learning to network
- learning to relate to, and communicate with, others more effectively
- gaining increased self-confidence
- gaining increased awareness
- gaining increased readiness to take responsibility and initiative.
In summary, the values which underpin action learning are:
- membership of a set is voluntary
- commitment must be demonstrated in making the process work
- a positive, constructive approach to life
- reflection as the key to learning
- the presenter is focused (on her/his own issue)
A definition of Action Learning
"Action Learning is an approach to the development of people in organisations which takes the task as the vehicle for learning. It is based on the premise that there is no learning without action and no sober and deliberate action without learning.
The method has three main components: people who accept responsibility for taking action on a particular issue; problems, or the task that people set themselves; and a set of six or so colleagues who support and challenge each other to make progress on problems. Action Learning implies both self-development and organisation development." Mike Pedler (1991)
Action Learning Set Who is in it?
An Action Learning Set is a group of 6-8 people who meet regularly to help each other to learn from their experiences. A Set Adviser is appointed to help manage the process. The set is not a team since its focus is on the actions of the individuals within it rather than on a shared set of work objectives.
Experience has shown that sets often work better when participants come with a similar level of experience. The Set Adviser is part of the set in one sense but has a particular responsibility to create a learning environment by encouraging, challenging and focusing on learning. Some Action Learning Sets are self-facilitated.
A 'Set' Meeting
The Set will decide on its own way of working but usually a 'meeting' involves a series of individual time slots where participants take turns in presenting their project/ challenge/ issue to the set. This will normally involve:
- an update of progress on actions from the last meeting
- a presentation of current issues/problems
- an agreement on actions for the future.
Throughout this, other participants will work with the presenter (by listening and questioning) to help them to decide what actions to take.
Time is always a limited resource in a set meeting and the Set Adviser must ensure that set participants get their full allocation (it is not a free discussion).
Some Sets develop a fixed agenda to speed up the start of the meeting but in any case, all participants should come fully prepared for the meeting.
Action Learning Projects
The project is the piece of work around which the participant learns. It does not need to be linked to specific outcomes such as setting up a safety audit carrying out a particular task but could also be about acquiring skills or knowledge. For the purposes of this programme, however, the project must have a learning focus.
Participating in an Action Learning Set
Preparing for a Set meeting:
Before the meeting it will help to get the best out of the session if participants can think through what to focus on with their set. The set may be somewhere that participants can 'experiment' with different behaviours such as consciously asking more questions than usual or being more reflective if they are usually very talkative. Presenters should:
- prepare for meetings
- structure their time
- be clear about what they want – or want the set to – focus on
- learn to ask for what they want
- listen
- generate action points for them self.
Structuring your time in an Action Learning Set:
Usually, the presenter will use their time to report on action taken as a result of the previous set meeting. It is useful to think about:
- what I did
- what happened
- what was different from what I expected
- what I did not do – why – what I did instead
- what can I/have I learned from this?
This can form the basis for reporting back to the set who will then ask questions. The presenter can continue with:
- what is the issue now
- what actions could I take now
- what action points can I identify
Alternative Approaches
A presenter may wish to concentrate on a particular aspect of their project that s/he thinks the set can really help with. This gives a depth of focus which may be a more appropriate use of time than an overview. Alternatively, the presenter may wish to ask the set to talk about a particular problem and s/he will listen and only ask for clarification at the end of an agreed time. This is helpful if the presenter is stuck for ideas to take the work forward. The reverse of this is where the audience remains silent and the presenter talks through the project. A listening, attentive audience may help the presenter to clarify thinks for her/himself.
Reviewing your time
At the end of each participant's time slot it is useful for the presenter to review with the set the process by which the action points have been identified. S/he might ask for feedback on how s/he presented the project or might give the set feedback on what was helpful or unhelpful about the set's interventions.
This can also be done by the whole set near to the end of the meeting. It helps the set to develop a supportive learning climate to work in.
A typical meeting might follow this format:
- Introduction – a warm-up activity and confirmation of programme for the
- In agreed order each person in the Set:
- 10 Minute presentation of current 'state of play'/ position
- 10 minute of exploratory questions from the Set to help the presenter think through the issue
- 5 minute presentation to the Set on the action plan.
- Closing session – time taken for the whole group to finish the meeting rather than drift off at the end. Would include an element of evaluation – what will we do differently next time.

Baystate Health urology treats health conditions affecting the male and female urinary tract and the male genital organs. Find a Provider Urological surgeons at Baystate Health treat: Prostate cancer and other prostate diseases Urinary incontinence Diseases and malfunctions of the kidneys, bladder, and ureters Baystate urological surgeons were among the first in the western Massachusetts area to perform minimally invasive surgery (MIS) for the care of urological conditions. MIS usually results in: Smaller scars Less risk of infection Less bleeding and need for blood transfusions Less pain and trauma Faster healing Shorter hospital stays The ability to resume normal activity up to four weeks sooner than patients who opt for traditional open surgery Minimally invasive and robotic procedures: Nephrectomy/Partial Nephrectomy Prostatectomy Ureter Harvest Radical Prostatectomy Pelvic Lymph Node Dissection Incontinence Surgery Pyeloplasty Urology Conditions We Treat Inflammation of the Prostate Prostatitis, or inflammation of the prostate, has a variety of causes ranging from stress to bacterial infection. When the prostatic ducts become inflamed, irritated or blocked for any reason, prostatitis may develop. The three types of prostatitis are nonbacterial prostatitis, acute (severe) bacterial prostatitis and chronic (long-lasting) prostatitis. Prostatitis can affect men of all ages. Some of the symptoms are similar to those caused by an enlarged prostate and include the frequent urge to urinate, yet difficulty in doing so. Prostatitis also can be accompanied by chills and fever and by pain or burning during urination. Symptoms and the underlying condition may be treated by medication or other means. If an infection is the cause, medication can usually resolve the problem completely. Prostate Cancer Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in the United States, with 184,500 new cases anticipated in 1998. It is the second leading cause of cancer deaths among men. Yet when detected in the early stages, prostate cancer can be effectively treated. In its early stages, prostate cancer may not cause any urinary symptoms. As it progresses, it can cause a need to urinate frequently, especially at night; difficulty starting urination or holding back urine; inability to urinate; a weak or interrupted flow of urine; painful or burning urination; painful ejaculation; blood in urine or semen; and frequent pain or stiffness in the lower back, hips, or extremities. Urinary Incontinence Urinary incontinence is the involuntary loss of urine that occurs frequently enough to become a problem. Although it is more common among older women, it is not an inevitable part of aging and can occur at any age. Urinary incontinence is caused by various problems with the bladder, where urine is stored, and the urethra, the canal that carries urine from the bladder to outside the body. Problems with the bladder include weakness of the muscles and hypersensitive or overactive bladder muscles. Urethral problems include weakness of the urethral sphincter (band of muscles that close off the bladder opening to the urethra) or a blocked urethra. Sometimes, urinary incontinence is temporary, appearing as a side effect to a medication or a symptom of an underlying condition, such as infection or hormonal imbalance. This temporary condition will disappear once the causal condition is identified and treated. There are three main types of urinary incontinence: Stress incontinence is the most common type, is often caused by poor bladder support, a damaged sphincter muscle or a problem within the urethra. Stress incontinence causes urine to leak out with activities, such as sneezing, laughing and coughing, or with any effort that increases pressure on the bladder, such as bending or exercise. Urge incontinence occurs when an "overactive" bladder contracts unexpectedly. It usually comes with little warning and causes an abrupt and uncontrollable need to urinate. Overflow incontinence is caused by a weakened bladder or a blocked urethra, making it impossible for the bladder to empty completely. This eventually causes the urine to overflow and leak out. Diabetes, heavy alcohol use and certain neurologic problems can cause overflow incontinence.

The new Pope Urban V proved a wise choice. A Benedictine monk and canon lawyer, he was deeply spiritual and brilliant. He lived simply and modestly, which did not always earn him friends among clergymen who had become used to comfort and privilege. Still, he pressed for reform and saw to the restoration of churches and monasteries. Except for a brief period he spent most of his eight years as pope living away from Rome at Avignon, seat of the papacy from 1309 until shortly after his death.
He came close but was not able to achieve one of his biggest goalsreuniting the Eastern and Western churches.
As pope, Urban continued to follow the Benedictine Rule. Shortly before his death in 1370 he asked to be moved from the papal palace to the nearby home of his brother so he could say goodbye to the ordinary people he had so often helped.

U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
Indianapolis Hotel Discriminated Against Black Housekeeping Applicants and Staff, Federal Agency Charged
INDIANAPOLIS – A local hotel has denied employment to black housekeeping applicants, offered lower pay and hours to black housekeeping staff, terminated black housekeeping staff who complained of the less favorable treatment, and destroyed employment records since at least September 2, 2008, according to a lawsuit filed on September 30, 2010 by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).
According to the EEOC, the general manager of the Hampton Inn hotel located at 2311 North Shadeland Ave. advised her employees that she wanted to get "Mexicans" in who would clean better and complain less than her black housekeeping staff. The EEOC is suing New Indianapolis Hotels, Inc. on behalf of a class of terminated housekeeping employees as well as a class of black housekeeping applicants who sought employment at its Shadeland Avenue Hampton Inn facility between approximately September 2, 2008 and June 2009.
Making employment decisions based on race and/or taking actions against employees who complain of race discrimination violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The EEOC filed suit (Case No. 1:10-cv-1234) in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana, Indianapolis Division) after first attempting to reach a pre-litigation settlement. The agency is seeking back pay, compensatory and punitive damages against New Indianapolis Hotels Inc., as well as other relief, including a permanent injunction to prevent the company from engaging in future race discrimination and/or retaliation.
"Employers cannot choose employees based on the color of their skin, nor can employers treat employees differently based on the color of their skin and this blatant race discrimination by the Shadeland Avenue Hampton Inn facility clearly violated federal law," said Laurie A. Young, regional attorney for the EEOC's Indianapolis District Office.
The EEOC enforces federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. Further information about the EEOC is available on the agency's web site at www.eeoc.gov. Further information about this lawsuit can be obtained by calling the EEOC at (317) 226-7212.

Plan Reins In Biggest Banks
Proposal Requiring Extra Capital Would Force Firms to Be More Conservative or Shrink

Mouth injuries that are forceful enough to knock out a
tooth may also damage other teeth or other structures in the mouth or face,
such as the roof of the mouth, gums, lips, or cheeks. A permanent tooth can
sometimes be put back into its socket (reimplanted). The best results occur if
a dentist puts the tooth back in the socket within 30 minutes. Chances of
successful reimplantation are unlikely after 2 hours.
Find the tooth.
2. Rinse the tooth gently with tap
water while holding it by the top of the tooth (crown). Do not rub or
scrub the tooth or touch the root.
3. Store
the tooth properly for transport to the dentist.
4. Call your dentist immediately to
arrange for your care. If you are unable to talk with your dentist right away,
go to a hospital emergency room immediately. Be sure to take the tooth with
