Many of the patients we see at Panama City Smiles only come when something goes wrong. We don't blame them and we won't blame you if you're a reactive dental care patient either! But we do want to let you know how important it is to have regular dental care that prevents problems before they ever start!
Our Panama City dentist office has a philosophy of making dental care as easy as possible. To us that means eliminating the sources and potential for dental health complications before they ever happen! The importance of regular dental care can't be underestimated and the complications aren't fun!
Oral Health Problems: Where Do They Come From?
The problem of traumatic injury is always a problem but it's rare compared to the cause of most dental problems: bacteria. Your mouth is just full of the stuff and it exists in the form of plaque, a sticky, white biofilm that builds up on your teeth during the day. You've probably noticed plaque before and getting rid of it is exactly why you brush and floss!
Plaque bacteria is the source of pretty much every oral health problem that commonly occurs throughout the world. And guess what? All of those problems can be boiled down to two things: tooth decay and gum disease. These two conditions are the root of every serious infection, pain, tooth loss and damage that happens in your mouth.
Oral bacteria isn't all harmful but the strains that are all feed on sugars in the foods you eat. When they metabolize sugar they turn it into acid that destroys tooth enamel, leading to the formation of cavities. These start small but left untreated will quickly develop into serious problems! Bacteria will get into your tooth where your brush doesn't reach all while creating more and more acids. They get deeper and deeper until they reach the root and start causing infections that can lead to serious pain!
The same bacteria also loves to get into another place where your brush and floss can't reach: between your gums and teeth. When bacteria is there your body quickly treats it as an infection and your gums become inflamed to fight the bacteria off. This isn't always enough, though, and continued inflammation can lead to gum disease, which will continue until it eats away at your bone and causes tooth loss.
The Root Of All (Dental) Evil
While bacteria can be said to cause just those two conditions (tooth decay and gum disease) the complications that come with them are devastating. On the reverse of that is how simple it is to treat those conditions with regular dental checkups.
When we see you at Panama City Smiles we perform a comprehensive exam that will show us any potential problems before they become serious. Digital X-rays will help us see your teeth more clearly than ever before, and 3D imaging can give us a perfect look at each layer of your facial structure.
Our exam is also just as visual as it is technical. We'll take a thorough look at your mouth to check for cavities, gum disease, and other conditions that need attention. We'll also thoroughly clean your teeth, getting into the areas that brushing and flossing simply can't reach. Your mouth is full of nooks and crannies that are impossible for you to keep clean – yet another reason to see us regularly!
We use all our exam and cleaning time to work up the perfectly tailored treatment plan for you. If there are any cavities or gum disease present we can work quickly to address them before they become serious, allowing us to get you back to optimal dental health quickly and easily. We'll also take preventive measures to ensure potential problems never come to pass!
Preventive Care: It's Essential!
When we clean your teeth we're looking for one thing: excess plaque hiding in the places you can't reach. There are a lot of them and that's where problems start. No matter how well you clean your teeth at home you won't be able to get all the plaque that builds up in your mouth and since plaque bacteria is the #1 risk factor to your oral health regular care is essential!
Don't risk your smile by skipping out on dental care. Come see us at Panama City Smiles today! You can reach our office by calling 850-588-0185 or you can request an appointment by filling out our online form. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Executive Resume WritingWritten by Adam Blau
The skill of executive resume writing differs from that of standard resume writing. Executive positions are typically rarer and potentially more lucrative than entry or mid-level positions. The expertise and experience expected of an executive mandate a more sophisticated and in-depth resume.
Someone applying for an executive position likely has amassed a considerable amount of life experience. It is necessary in executive resume writing, then, to "weed out" those items which would less impress a human resources director. For most executives, high school is frequently a distant memory; it's a fair bet that it would behoove an executive applicant to omit this from a resume.
Executive resume writing also involves including a list of your career accomplishments. It is not enough for an applicant to an executive position to list his or her overall duties at a company. An executive-to-be should also be able to separate him or herself from the pack by demonstrating past accomplishments at the beginning of the resume. It's okay to be specific in this section; dates and amounts should be spelled out clearly so a hiring manager can see and assess them easily.
Executive Resume Writing And Design
The design of a resume for a typical future executive is often a bit more staid than that of other, lower positions. It is better to come across as a bit more conservative in this department; font choice and layout should convey seriousness and confidence. A company will want an executive to possess these qualities, and they honestly do come across subtly in the details of resume design.

TROY — The Miami County Board of Developmental Disabilities at Riverside hosted the 2019 Regional Advocacy Conference on Friday, Sept. 27.
Several surrounding county boards of DD were represented by members and clients who attended the event. Also in attendance was Audrey Ferryman, Joshua Cook and Olivia Caldeira, who each led break-out sessions, as well as Jeff Davis, director of the Ohio Department of DD, who served as the keynote speaker.
The annual conference aims to support people with developmental disabilities in finding their voice and speaking up for themselves when it comes to personal choices with regard to care and assistance so that they may have the quality of life they want and deserve.
"I think the world is yours and we're going to help you decided how you want to live it, what you want to do, and what you want to accomplish," Davis said. "We're going to help you so that you can be everything you want to be just like everyone else."
Davis shared a story about an experience he had while attending a Project STIR event. "STIR" stands for "Steps Toward Independence and Responsibility."
During this event, Davis said, everyone was asked to introduce themselves and to talk about the last time they "spoke up for themselves."
"I couldn't help but think, 'I don't think about the last time that I spoke up for myself.' It's just natural and I do it every day — some of it by position and some of it just in the natural way that you interact with one another," he said. "What I'm saying it that it should not be an accomplishment or event for you to talk about what you wish, what you want to do, and what you think. It should be just a natural conversation like it is for everybody else."
Davis opened the floor for an impromptu comment and question session during which attendees and clients of local boards of DD shared personal accounts of seeking advocacy, as well as hardships and trials they've experienced along the way.
"We, as professionals, are here to support you, all of you, so we have to get better all the time at figuring out exactly what that means," Davis said.
The conference included lunch, followed by three break-out sessions guided by Ferryman, whose session focused on healthy relationships; Cook, who focused on the idea that technology may be able to assist people with increasing independence; and Caldeira, who spoke about adult advocacy centers.
According to Riverside Superintendent Brian Green, Regional Advocacy, a seven-county collaboration meets once per month, at a different county each month, as well as for the annual fall conference, to discuss a variety of self-advocacy topics and to share what is and is not working in each program.
"We really address some tough but important questions, concerns and ideas within self-advocacy," Green said. "We want to help people learn to discover their own interests and figure out how to find their voice and express that. These meetings also help us as a county board to assist clients in explaining their wishes effectively."
The Miami County Board of Developmental Disabilities (Riverside) serves more than 1,000 people in Miami County and work to help each client navigate life and achieve their goals regardless of age, ability, or diagnosis.
Funding for the MCBDD is mainly funded locally, with 70 percent of funding coming from local levies, while 30 percent comes from other funding sources.
Riverside works to provide an individualized approach and also helps with early intervention for ages zero to three, housing coordination, recreation and Special Olympics programs, advocacy training and family education, and training for direct support professionals.

Define art: Hauling a big rock to the top of a mountain
An artist is to place a four tonne boulder on top of one of Austria's highest mountains.
You'd think there would already be enough rocks up there. It is a mountain, right?
Give a squirrel enough rope…
Arizona is spending $1.25 million to build bridges for endangered squirrels over a mountain road so they don't become roadkill and then monitor their health. The expenditure is expected to save the lives of five squirrels a year.
The money is being spent, officials said, because cars kill about five of these squirrels each year.While most suburbanites may be baffled why anyone would protect a pesky squirrel, these are Mount Graham red squirrels, a breed once thought to be extinct. Only 250 of them are known to live near the top of Mount Graham.
The Federal Highway Administration grant will be used to build rope bridges over the lone road through the squirrels' habitat, according to Arizona Department of Transportation

Out of Into the mouths of babes
A Wisconsin father said curved bratwurst buns designed by his 9-year-old son earned the boy an inventor's prize as well as some cash from selling the food.Jeremy Claxton of Chippewa Falls said his son, Sydney, who just finished third grade, came up with the idea to make buns that are curved to fit the shape of a bratwurst for an inventor's fair at Parkview School, the Eau Claire Wis. Leader-Telegram reported Wednesday.

Fatal motor vehicle accidents do not discriminate based on the age of victims, and a recent crash in Hanover, Virginia, is no exception. One adult is now dead as the result of a collision that occurred recently. Three young children, along with another adult, received injuries from the incident, and police arrested the driver of one of the vehicles on charges of driving under the influence.
Virginia car crash results in one dead, several others injured
Legal fallout continues from celebrity known for car accidents
Whether the person behind the wheel is an A-list celebrity or an everyday commuter on any street in Virginia, car accidents can spur a chain of events affecting multiple lives. For former child star Lindsay Lohan, a recent auto accident has created a ripple of legal and financial complications.
Teenager's texting-while-driving conviction serves as warning
It is well-known by now that distracted driving can be deadly. In days gone by, distractions were relatively few: changing the radio, lighting a cigarette or a noisy passenger might lead a driver to lose focus for a moment. Nobody a few decades ago could have contemplated that a driver might be talking on the phone or, even more dangerous, sending or receiving a text message.
Fatal Memorial Day car accident sees Virginia man arrested
Memorial Day traditionally is the unofficial start of summer, but with warmer weather comes an increase in fatal car accidents. This past Memorial Day saw the death of a pedestrian attempting to cross a highway late at night. A Lorton, Virginia, man stands accused of striking and killing a man crossing Coastal Highway. The man was pronounced dead at Peninsula Regional Medical Center.
Hazmat semi truck accident results in critical injuries
Accidents involving tractor trailer trucks can be one of the most daunting types of roadway catastrophes. When a hazardous materials truck is involved, the results can be even more severe. A recent truck accident involved an SUV and a hazmat vehicle, with one driver ending up in critical condition.

At Westall Murray International, we are dedicated to innovation. But innovation needs to be done the right way. By this we don't just mean that the innovation process itself needs to be done in the most effective way possible. We also want the end results to be truly beneficial to our clients, and we do not want to see a negative impact on society, culture, or the environment.
All of that represents a lofty set of goals. We aim to meet them through a combined approach of excellence in consulting and business services, coupled with ongoing and critical scrutiny of the ethics and root value of what we are doing and what we are supporting.
In addition to supporting our clients in their own quests for innovation, we offer some unique products and services which you can read about in more detail on the appropriate pages of our site. Highlights include:
Noozle is our trademarked software offering. The product complements a range of Project Management and other software applications by providing an "exploration portal" into the data contained in each application. To illustrate this, consider any one of several movie-focused Web Sites. On these sites, you can roam through the information by selecting, say, a movie title, and then seeing a list of actors and roles. Click on an actor, and you will see all the other movies the actor was in, along with the role in that movie. Click one of those other roles, and you can see which actors filled that role in other movies. Where you go is up to you, and what you look at is up to you, based on whatever sparks your interest. But at the end of your time "exploring," you know a whole lot more about those movies, actors and roles than you did before. Noozle® allows a similar approach to exploring data you already have in your enterprise. The Noozle® for Microsoft Project Server product takes you on an exploration of Projects, Tasks and Resources that is very analogous to the Movie, Role Actor example we just discussed.
The PMOrb™
Sometimes you will hear someone say in exasperation, "I don't have a crystal ball you know!" when they are asked about the expected end date of a project, about the likely cost return on a project portfolio, or some other challenging matter. Well, now they can have a crystal ball, and it can be linked wirelessly to Microsoft Project Server or other PM Tool data! More specifically they can have a PMOrb™ which is an Ambient Orb as provided by Ambient Devices, Inc. using Westall Murray software to trigger changes in the color or pulse rate of the Orb based on changes in task, project, resource of portfolio data held in your project management tool database. The changes are sent over the pager network in near-real time (less than 15 minutes after a data update). This "Glanceable" technology delivers up-to-date information to decision makers in an aesthetically pleasing way!
Sir Ganttalot™
Sir Ganttalot spends his free time recording short YouTube videos containing advice, tips, and tricks relating to project management and the use of project management software. Check him out as he slays his latest project management monster (management, organization, network, scheduling, tracking error!). Who is Sir Ganttalot? Well, one of our PM experts was sitting in his office one day when some sort of time anomaly threw him back in time to the Ancient Kingdom of Wessex (597 A.D.) (Or so he says anyway!) To survive, he took a position managing a Castle Construction Project for King Calderwulf III. Naturally the project came in on time, within budget, and with all ramparts intact and fully functional. Our consultant was dubbed "Sir Ganttalot" by a Grateful King, and then immediately woke up back in his office.
Time-Independent PM Methodology™ One of the reasons we like innovation so much is the fact that we like to think of the future as already being here, but just waiting to be revealed. Philosophers often pose the question, "If someone thinks of something, does thinking about it make it exist in some way?" Although that sounds like a mere thought experiment, we have found that when a new product or concept is being developed, insufficient attention is given in most PM methodologies to how the nature of the finished product affects the steps that lead up to it. A concrete example of this is the standard approach to Risk Management. A risk is typically assessed in terms of its probability of occurrence, and the degree of impact if the risk occurs. This is unfortunately only part of the picture. In many cases the mere existence of a risk will have an impact even before it occurs, in the sense that it modifies the approach, behavior, and actions of those who are aware of the risk. To ensure that such time-independent relationships exist within all projects we have developed a flexible Time-Independent PM Methodology™ that we deploy when supporting highly innovative projects. The methodology includes processes and artifacts that allow us to accurately model and support the true relationships that exist as our customers make their visions a reality.

|Kevin was always late for work, or was he!!
"Look at the time," Sharon screamed glancing at the kitchen clock, quickly gulping down the hot cup of coffee she held, and squirming. "I,m late again". She grabbed at her toast, placing it in her mouth, she snatched her bag, kissed her parents and within a flash was gone. Carol and Kevin just looked at each other, smiled and continued with their breakfast. "She,ll get the sack, one of these days," Kevin mumbled between munches of toast. Carol sniggered. "She,s an accountant," she tutted amused. "Accountants don,t get fired, they account," she giggled at her silly replie. Kevin raised a quizzical eyebrow and looked sarcastically at her. "I know,I know," she smiled, "I just didn,t know what to say, anyway, she looked at her wrist watch, impatiently tapping it with her finger, you,ll be late soon if you don,t hurry up". "Oh god yes," Kevin jumped out of the chair,kissed her on the cheek and then was gone too. Clearing away all the breakfast dishes only took a few minutes. Carol switched on the radio, happily jigging along with the music, doing the washing up. When the music suddenly stopped. "I have an important newsflash,"came the deep husky voice over the loud speakers. "There has been a serious train crash in Birmingham, on the Milton Keynes to Birmingham line". Carol dropped the plate to the floor, with a crash. It seemed to shatter into a million pieces,just like her life.That was Kevins train,she thought. I can,t live without him,what will I do, please let him be safe. Her heart began to pound, deafening out the husky voice for a moment. "If you have any loved ones or relatives who may have been aboard the train, please ring 0800 555230. Your calls will be answered as soon as possible, please keep calm, Thankyou for your patients. He didn,t have a clue what she felt at that moment, the pain that ran through her heart was unbearable. The music came back on. It seemed a little too cheerful now,she leaned over to turn it off and was struck by the loss she felt.Carol pulled herself a seat from under the kitchen table, sat down and cried her heart out. She lit herself a cigarette to calm her nerves, but it didn,t work. Carol picked up the phone and dialled the number, it was engaged again,in pure frustration she threw the phone down, "Bloody hell!" she screamed at the top of her voice. "I can,t stay here and do nothing, I,ll go mad"> She paced up and down wearing a hole in the kitchen lino, contemplating her next move. She grabbed for her car keys, her bag and rushed out of the house. Carol got in the car and started it up. It began to purr just like a kitten, so Kevin used to say, and then it died. This must be an omen, she sighed. She turned the key but still no good. Carol flew into a rage, punching at the steering wheel and sobbing uncontrollably. "If only he had been a few minutes late, he might still be here," Carol cried "He would have missed that train!" "Start you bloody car, start," Carol cursed. The loud roaring of the engine took hold, subsiding into a soft purring sound. Pushing it quickly into gear, she drove off to the train station. Reaching the station she was confronted by hoards of cars and frustrated people. All of them seemed to be shouting at the station master, all desperately trying to get heard at once. "We have no information for you at the moment," came the message over the loud tannoy."Please be patient, when we have some news, you will be the first to hear it", but the crowd wouldn,t listen. The station master, a plumpish, grey haired man about fifty started to get flustered, with all these people shouting at him. As if the situation had something to do with him. Carol sat in her car, patiently watching the maddening crowds, for a split second she actually felt sorry for the guy.Then she was filled with grief, grief for not knowing what had happened to her beloved Kevin. Knowing instinctively by the raging crowds there was nothing she could do here, she turned the car round and went slowly back home to sit it out there. Every five minutes Carol rang the emergency number given out over the radio. But there was no new information available at the moment. Sitting alone in her kitchen, she tried to focus on the good times that she,d had with Kevin. Imagining that her husband would walk through that front door ranting and raving about something and nothing like he usually did. Her silence was broken by the ringing of the phone.Tears struck, Carol,s heart leapt, was it the station? What had happened to Kevin? Was he all right or was he...> her heart began to pound loudly in her breasts, butterflies did cartwheels in her stomach. She reached for the receiver and gently lifted it to her ear as if, for some reason, it would break in her hands. "Hello," her voice quiet and quivering. "Darling, I,ve missed my train". Tweet

Lawrence and Edna McDonald were married 44 years. Once their daughter saw her father drive by their home. "I couldn't remember where I lived," he said. Tests revealed Alzheimer's disease. Over time he concluded Edna was his co-worker, but not his wife.
Geraldine McCue, our Senior Companion, visits this family several times weekly. She engages Lawrence at a level he can accept, and gives Edna a chance to have a few hours of solace, and also go to dialysis. Edna proclaimed, "Geri is God's Angel."

The Desk Extraction
Author: Sheri Denkensohn-Trott
I'm not sure who came up with the word "joystick" as the device that you put your hand on to drive a motorized wheelchair, but sometimes it just isn't funny. Actually, many times it is totally ironic.
For those of you that might not be aware, a joystick is an upright handle attached to the control panel of the wheelchair and it is what you use with your hand to control the movement of the wheelchair. On many motorized chairs, like mine, there is also a button to push that puts the wheelchair in tilt or recline mode. When you are in that mode you cannot get out of it unless you press the button on the base of the joystick.
I digress for a moment to tell you that you don't get a driver's license or any training for a motorized wheelchair. When I was 16 and got my first motorized chair, the physical therapist put me in the chair, didn't even put on a seat belt, and directed me to drive to the elevator. Sounds simple enough, but you can imagine what was to come. First, a joystick is very sensitive. My friends that have tried to drive my chair thinking it is easy, are incredibly surprised at how out-of-control they become when they attempt to drive the chair with the joystick. So, after I was in the wheelchair, I drove down the hallway toward the elevator on my floor at the rehabilitation center, wobbling back and forth like a drunk driver. I finally got there, and the doors opened but before I knew it, the doors started to shut and BAM!! I crashed right into the elevator. I was unscathed, but I did damage the footrest. I still was required to get in the wheelchair with assistance each day and I slowly improved my driving skills. After almost 36 years using a motorized wheelchair, I am considered a good "woman driver."
About a month ago, I was sitting at my desk in my home office as I normally do on a conference call. To use the phone on my desk I need to pull pretty far under it and the joystick is completely beneath the desk. There is usually enough space for me to put my hand over top of the joystick to back up. During the course of the conference call, somehow, the joystick got caught under the desk and the mode changed to tilt and recline. My chair started to tilt and because it was caught on the desk, it wouldn't stop. It tilted all the way back and my legs were wedged into the wall and my knees under the bottom of the desk. I started screaming for my attendant to help me and the people on the phone had no idea what was going on. My attendant raced in and turned off the phone.
I started to sweat profusely, which is how my body exhibits pain. Because I was so tightly wedged into the wall and the desk, it was impossible to take off my foot rests so the pressure could be relieved. Also, even taking my chair out of gear so it could be maneuvered manually was impossible. As a result, my attendant and my husband could not move the chair. Even when they pulled as hard as they could I remained completely stuck.
My attendant, because of my sweating, smartly decided that the only
way to get me out was to call 911. We did and the operator asked me specifics about the situation. I told her that I was a quadriplegic and that I was stuck under my desk. I did tell her I had a trach and I think that triggered a higher level of emergency. Within a couple of minutes, 8 EMTs arrived at my condominium. If you were a fly on the wall watching this, you would be laughing out loud. The office is not very big and there was me stuck under the desk, my attendant, my husband (in his manual wheelchair), my best friend and nurse practitioner (in a motorized wheelchair) and 8 EMTs, who, as a rule are quite burly and strong. They even had a "code kit" because they were likely prepared for breathing issues because I reported that I had a trach.
It took 7 of the EMTs to pull me out far enough that I was able to reach the joystick and take myself out of tilt mode. I caught my breath and was no longer sweating. In fact, we were all smiling. They took my vitals and I was fine. And they knew they didn't need to take me to the hospital. The best moment was when one of the EMTs said "I've been an EMT for 35 years and I've never done a desk extraction!" All of us were laughing. I guess I can say that my "joystick" did bring a little joy to what was quite a drama.
The good news is that I went to the orthopedic doctor the next day and I had not broken or hurt anything on my legs. What I do have is a great story about EMTs being ready for anything and me surviving what I'm sure will not be my last joystick adventure.

Rated 1 out of 5 by HarrysHD from Does not fit I better should have read these reviews and could have saved me some money when buying these rings when visiting the US. The rings are to big and do not fit my 2014 FLHTK. Same is true for the rear speakers. Funny enough 1 does fit while the second one is to small and a space remains between the ring and the speaker. So basically useless and a waist of money and effort, as no return is possible. Only thing I can do to make them fit is the cut them, however it would not expect this to be done with genuine HD parts, which actully should fit the model I am driving.

Rated 5 out of 5 by legs290 from more chrome Just a small bit of chrome surrounds the speaker and changes the look of the inner fairing. Be sure to clean the surface during prep and the install will go well.

If the sender does not verify the email, the verification will fail and BoxTrapper will not be able to clear the message for delivery. However, after a certain period of time, the system automatically deletes the spam.
If you want to enable BoxTrapper, you have to perform the following steps:
If you choose to enable BoxTrapper, it has the capability to automatically whitelist any email address, to which you send an email, even if you don't have automatic whitelisting enabled.
If you want to edit the BoxTrapper settings then you can click on Manage next to the account that you want to modify. You will then see the BoxTrapper Configuration interface appear.
If you want to configure BoxTrapper settings, you have to perform the following steps:

BoxTrapper has the capability to automatically whitelist any email address to which you wish to send a message.
BoxTrapper has the capability of automatically responding to an email with messages that the system builds from the templates mentioned below:

Only Natural Pet EasyRaw dehydrated dog food receives the Advisor's mid-tier rating of 3.5 stars.
The Only Natural Pet EasyRaw product line lists 4 dry dog foods.
Each recipe below includes its related AAFCO nutrient profile when available on the product's official webpage: Growth, Maintenance, All Life Stages, Supplemental or Unspecified.
Important: Because many websites do not reliably specify which Growth or All Life Stages recipes are safe for large breed puppies, we do not include that data in this report. Be sure to check actual packaging for that information.

Only Natural Pet EasyRaw Turkey and Sweet Potato Grain Free was selected to represent the other products in the line for this review.
Only Natural Pet EasyRaw Turkey and Sweet Potato Grain Free
Dehydrated Dog Food
Estimated Dry Matter Nutrient Content
Ingredients: Turkey, sweet potatoes, carrots, whole egg, broccoli, cranberries, celery, yellow split pea, flax seeds, apples, almond bran, tricalcium phosphate, alfalfa, basil, dried kelp, ginger root, spinach, vitamin A palmitate, vitamin D3 supplement, vitamin E supplement, reduced iron, zinc sulfate, copper sulfate, vitamin B12
Fiber (estimated dry matter content) = 8.1%
Red denotes controversial item
|Estimated Nutrient Content
|Guaranteed Analysis
|Dry Matter Basis
|Calorie Weighted Basis
The first ingredient in this dog food is turkey. Turkey is considered "the clean combination of flesh and skin… derived from the parts or whole carcasses of turkey".1
Turkey is naturally rich in the ten essential amino acids required by a dog to sustain life.
The second ingredient is sweet potato. Sweet potatoes are a gluten-free source of complex carbohydrates in a dog food. They are naturally rich in dietary fiber and beta carotene.
The third ingredient includes carrots. Carrots are rich in beta-carotene, minerals and dietary fiber.
The fourth ingredient lists whole eggs. Eggs are easy to digest and have an exceptionally high biological value.
The fifth ingredient is broccoli. Broccoli is a healthy green vegetable and a member of the kale family. It's notably rich in vitamin C and fiber and numerous other nutrients.
Like other cruciferous vegetables, broccoli is believed to provide anti-cancer benefits.
The sixth ingredient includes cranberries, a nutrient-rich fruit that's also high in fiber.
The seventh ingredient is celery. Although raw celery can be very high in water, it can still contribute a notable amount of dietary fiber as well as other healthy nutrients.
The eighth ingredient lists peas. Peas are a quality source of carbohydrates. And like all legumes, they're rich in natural fiber.
However, peas contain about 25% protein, a factor that must be considered when judging the meat content of this dog food.
From here, the list goes on to include a number of other items.
But to be realistic, ingredients located this far down the list (other than nutritional supplements) are not likely to affect the overall rating of this product.
With four notable exceptions…
First, we find flaxseed, one of the best plant sources of healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Provided they've first been ground into a meal, flax seeds are also rich in soluble fiber.
However, flaxseed contains about 19% protein, a factor that must be considered when judging the actual meat content of this dog food.
Next, we note the inclusion of alfalfa, a flowering member of the pea family. Although alfalfa is high in protein (18%) and fiber, it's uncommon to see it used in a dog food. This hay-family ingredient is more commonly associated with horse feeds.
In addition, although we find a couple of added vitamins or minerals on the ingredients list, we're reassured to find a detailed list of naturally present nutrients on the company's website.
And lastly, the minerals listed here do not appear to be chelated. And that can make them more difficult to absorb. Chelated minerals are usually associated with higher quality dog foods.
Only Natural Pet EasyRaw
Dehydrated Dog Food Review
Judging by its ingredients alone, Only Natural Pet EasyRaw dog food looks like an above-average dry product.
But ingredient quality by itself cannot tell the whole story. We still need to estimate the product's meat content before determining a final rating.
The dashboard displays a dry matter protein reading of 27%, a fat level of 9% and estimated carbohydrates of about 56%.
As a group, the brand features an average protein content of 25% and a mean fat level of 14%. Together, these figures suggest a carbohydrate content of 54% for the overall product line.
And a fat-to-protein ratio of about 54%.
Below-average protein. Below-average fat. And above-average carbs when compared to a typical dry dog food.
When you consider the protein-boosting effect of the peas, flaxseed and alfalfa, this looks like the profile of a dry product containing a moderate amount of meat.
Bottom line?
Only Natural Pet EasyRaw is a dehydrated dog food using a moderate amount of freeze-dried, raw named meats as its main source of animal protein, thus earning the brand 3.5 stars.
For even more raw diet suggestions, be sure to visit the Advisor's Recommended Raw Dog Foods summary page.
Please note certain recipes are sometimes given a higher or lower rating based upon our estimate of their total meat content and (when appropriate) their fat-to-protein ratios.

Housework is something that no matter how hard we try, will always be there. Pretty much as soon as we think we've finished all of the jobs that need doing, more arise. For a long time I have tried to get everything done at once which leaves me exhausted. In order to dedicate time and energy to other things I decided to set up a cleaning routine.
Sticking to a cleaning routine can be difficult at first, especially if you are a perfectionist like me. The most important thing about creating a routine for cleaning is ensuring that it is totally based around the needs of your family and your home. Having a cleaning routine is not about having a home pristine enough to rival a palace, it's about reducing stress by enabling you to have a home that is clean and tidy without an endless 'to do' list.
Before you create a cleaning schedule, you need to decide how often each household job needs to be done. Below is an example of how to list each job its frequency.
- Clean surfaces – daily.
- Empty bins – when required.
- Clean sink – weekly.
- Clean the washing machine – monthly.
- Sweep and mop floors – twice a week.
- Clean the oven – monthly.
- Clean toilet – twice a week.
- Vacuum – daily.
Once you have a list of jobs, decide who will be doing each job. Try and allocate the same amount of jobs to each adult living in your home to make it fair, and get the kids involved where you can!
How you design your cleaning routine is entirely up to you, after all, the point of a cleaning routine is to create something that helps you and your family. If you are not sure where to start, here are some ideas.
- Create your cleaning routine in a notepad.
- Design a chart and laminate it so that you can tick off each job and wipe clean when required.
- Write down your routine in the notes section of your phone.
As I am the only adult, and the children aren't quite at an age that is suitable for doing chores, I keep my cleaning routine stored on my phone. I find this really helpful as I can keep my phone in my pocket and refer to it with ease when needed.
Once you've decided how you are going to design your cleaning routine you need to organise your jobs into groups of frequency. It's important not to overwhelm yourself with too many groups, I have found five groups works well for me. These groups are –
- Daily
- Twice weekly.
- Weekly.
- Monthly.
- Six monthly.
When you do each job is entirely up to you, but it's a good idea to decide on a time frame in which to complete jobs that you want to do daily or twice weekly. I always vacuum at the end of the day when the children are settling down for bed, that way there is no risk of the carpets being littered with crumbs almost as soon as I've finished and I always clean the toilet whilst they aren't here as they tend to flush away any products I am using before I've had a chance to complete the task.
We often tend to overestimate what we can achieve in a set amount of time. This leaves us feeling stressed and frustrated, which is exactly what we are trying to avoid! Therefore it's really important to be realistic about what needs doing and what you want to do.
Give it a try – I promise that you'll see results almost immediately. Not just in your home, but in your mood as well! Check out my Cleaning Hacks Pinterest board for fantastic tips and tricks for cleaning your home.
Do you have a cleaning routine established already? What works well for you? Let me know in the comments below.

Stressing the need of credible business model for direct selling, the Consumer Affairs Minister said that rising incomes, large population of youth and urbanization has fuelled unparalleled demand for consumer products. Direct Selling is a fast growing sector especially in the Asia Pacific region and India is different a big consumer market. "I'm aware that there have been many different business models adopted by the Direct Selling companies but in their garb fly-by-night operators have actually done frauds with innocent consumers in the country in absence of awareness and strict norms adopted by the industry itself.", he added.
On the occasion Shri Paswan also released a study brought out by FICCI and KPMG on various aspects by Direct Selling sector in India.

Abstract. Given a classroom containing a fixed number of students and a fixed
number of tables that can be of different sizes, as well as a list of preferred classmates
to sit with for each student, the team composition problem in a classroom
(TCPC) is the problem of finding an assignment of students to tables in such a
way that preferences are maximally-satisfied. In this paper, we formally define
the TCPC, prove that it is NP-hard and define a MaxSAT model of the problem.
Moreover, we report on the results of an empirical investigation that show that
solving the TCPC with MaxSAT solvers is a promising approach.

When the Oregon Shakespeare Festival (OSF) needed to update the courtyard between its three main theaters, it called on a team it knew well. Landscape architect Walker Macy, which had teamed with Hacker for work on the Ashland campus' Thomas Theatre in 1998, was chosen as the lead designer.
"We were familiar with Oregon Shakespeare Festival," said Chelsea McCann, principal at Walker Macy.
The team's intimate knowledge of the area gave stakeholders added confidence for the renovation of the courtyard, which is commonly known as "the Bricks." The area ties together the campus' three main theaters, and hadn't received a significant renovation in nearly 47 years.
"It was long overdue," said Ted DeLong, general manager of OSF. "This is a courtyard that was put in when we built the Angus Bowmer Theatre in 1970."
Among the biggest challenges was addressing accessibility, comfort and grade issues without changing the way people felt about the courtyard.
"This was a beloved face for the people of Ashland," McCann said. "People have a lot of memories around the Bricks."
The bricks themselves were set in sand, so many became wobbly and susceptible to damage by vehicle traffic. The courtyard serves as an access point to the theaters for trucks to load and unload materials for OSF's plays.
"There were a lot of wooden curbs made out of railroad ties," DeLong said. "It, in general, wasn't the most comfortable place to walk or be."
In addition, the site has a slope of up to 11 percent at certain spots, and work had to be completed during the campus' off-season between November and February.
The renovation involved removal of all bricks and digging down to bare soil. Adroit Construction then poured concrete and replaced all of the bricks. Crews also added seating and improved lighting and sound systems on the stage. Hacker worked to add elevators to each of the three largest theaters. They also added a wheelchair lift to the Allen Elizabethan Theatre.
Then there was the weather. In Ashland, like much of Oregon, the 2016-17 winter was one of the harshest in recent years. During one ice storm, a large ash tree that was a focal point of the design, suffered substantial damage and had to be cut down.
"It was fairly exacting design in rugged conditions," DeLong said. "It was a big logistical headache every day."
After overcoming a multitude of issues, the team produced a result pleasing to stakeholders, according to McCann.
"This was a fantastic project," she said. "It was a fun one to work on. Everyone was really engaged and the people were really supportive to have worked with."

Was initially facing some issues but their support team was extremely helpful.
We now have a fully functioning multistore solution
Smile Drinkware USA
I'm glad that we found this app. In our situation, our "vendors" are actually the artists that design some of our products. So we've set up a profile for our six different artists, and attributed the exact products that they each have designed, and then assigned the percentage that we will pay them for royalties each time the product with their design sells. It was a bit confusing on how to get things set up at first but the support that this app company offers is great!! You can email them and they reply very, very quickly!!

I'm very pleased with the support and development from Webkul.

For the most part, humans tend to prefer nice, helpful people. Even babies as young as 3 months old can tell the difference between a good guy and a jerk, and they prefer being around the former.
But bonobos are a whole different story. Along with chimpanzees, these African apes are our closest living relative, sharing 98.7 percent of their DNA with humans. Although bonobos are known for being peaceful, a new study finds the apes are more attracted to bullies than nice guys.
Brian Hare, an associate professor of evolutionary anthropology at Duke University, led a team studying adult bonobos at Lola ya Bonobo Sanctuary in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Their study was published in the journal Current Biology.
In one set of trials, they showed bonobos animated videos of a Pac-Man like shape as it struggled to climb up a hill. In some instances, a helpful character enters the scene and helps the Pac-Man get up the hill; in others, a nasty character shoves him back down.
After watching the video, the bonobos were given pieces of apple — one under a cut-out shape of the unhelpful character and one under the helpful character. The researchers watched to see which they reached for first.
In another experiment, the bonobos watched while a human actor dropped a stuffed animal out of reach. A person steps in to try to return it, but then a third person moves in and grabs it away. The bonobos then were given a choice whether to accept a treat from the thief or the helpful person.
Just like people, bonobos were able to tell the difference between the people behaving badly and those who were helpful. But unlike people, in most cases they seemed to prefer the jerks.
According to the researchers, it could be that the bonobos look at rudeness as a sign of social status and they merely want to keep powerful individuals in their corner.
For bonobos, consorting with dominant individuals could mean better access to food, mates or other perks, or less chance of being bullied themselves, researcher Christopher Krupenye, now a postdoctoral fellow at the University of St Andrews in Scotland, said in a release.
The research supports the idea that a dislike of jerks and a preference for pleasant people may be unique to humans. Scientists say this bias towards nice guys may be the reason humans are able to work well in large groups in ways other species can't.
"Humans might have this unique preference for helpers that is really at the heart of why we're so cooperative," said Krupenye.

Not sure how that will affect the sport in the short term, though, as the Restriction Agreement will still be valid until 2017 as far as I understood. My guess is that no blood will be actually shed. Anyways...comments?
Le Mans
Quiet One posted a topic in Outside The F1 CircusFinally Toyota broke the curse. History at Le Mans, even if a Toyota win was more or less expected if the cars held up, which they did. But it was a magical Alonso, of course, with a night stint that will be remembered, faster on his first appearance than even his very experienced teammates that was crucial for car #8 to finish ahead of its sister car. Congrats!

The Bahraini Thread Of Bahraini Posts On The Bahraini Race And Such
Quiet One posted a topic in F1 DiscussionsSo, first two practices are over. The cars look gorgeous at night. In a surprising plot twist, the Mercs are on a league of their own, a second ahead. It's deja vu all over again. Pros: LH and NR seem closer in performance than the MW/SV couple, so at least we will have two cars racing at the front during the championship if reliability permits. Cons: Nikki Lauda and Toto Wolff are even less likeable than the obersturmbannführer Marko and Christian Spice duo. What's even worse, having Lauda and his nonsense does not mean that Marko stopped spewing his own. His latest comments on Webber want me punch him in the face. And then punch him in the face some more. Pros: Neither Lewis nor Nico will sound as annoying as the yahoos and "that's how it's done" from Seb. Cons: The press hype will mean that it won't be long before we will be forced to watch 2 hours specials about Roscoe and his love life. Pros: God save the Queen is a lot better than the Austrian anthem. Cons: we will keep hearing Deutschland über alles till the day we die. And now for something completely different: Kvyat is officially my new favorite rookie (sorry, K-Mag, I was never a fan of your father and your head has a funny shape), Hulkenberg and Nando are battling even during practices, I like that.
2019 Rolex 24hrs of Daytona
Quiet One posted a topic in Outside The F1 CircusEvery once in a while Alonso makes a good career decision. And when he does is good news for motorsport, as he is one of very few motorsport legends still active. Daytona was witness of that. Both his stints in the dry and under an atrocious rain were fast, relentless and technically almost perfect. They should rename the chicane to "Alonso's Chicken", he was THAT good outbreaking everybody else there. My recommendation, go get some highlights of the race. You won't be disappointed.
Guy Ligier Dies
Quiet One posted a topic in Historical F1http://www.speedcafe.com/2015/08/24/former-f1-team-owner-guy-ligier-dies/ It was the 70s. An age so modern that people walked every other week on the moon, now we only get to see that in sci-fi movies. So modern that popular music was as complex as classical music, now "Blurred Lines" is praised for its "harmonic complexity". An age so modern they didn't have puny tablets that can only play stupid games, the had badass mainframes that filled entire floors in universities, and could only play stupid games. I was a little kid by then. My golden locks cascading below my waist. My family (grandad, uncles, father) always watched F1 on sundays. I went to grandpa's every other sunday and played with my toys while watching those cars on the big black and white screen. They loved Lauda, they loved Emmo, they argued and screamed at the screen. They told me about those red cars, that it was actually fun watching cars running endlessly in circles for hours. But I immediately fell in love with one car. One. Car. It was ugly as fukc, a distorted pic taken with some big lens of a regular f1 car. It had more in common with the Titanic than with the Ferraris 312T. Of course, I am talking about the Ligier JS5. And yes, 26 was always the number. Jacques Lafitte, my first hero (well, perhaps my second after Emmo and no, I never warmed up to Reutemann) Ugly as it was it had personality. Aftewards it got much better, their next car was already one of the most beautiful ever, and they continued to produce cars that were closer to works of art, even if not always succesful. When I grew older and decided that I was stupid enough to start smoking I bought Gitanes, and stuck to them until I quitted (some Marlboros as well, but Senna didn't have anything to do with that, just that I could not find Gitanes here). If branding and all that BS ever worked with me, that was the time. I was not lighting up a Gitane cigarette, I was lighting up a Ligier, I was not coughing with the awful smell from tobacco, it was a Ligier's exhaust fumes. I was not blowing smoke, by the way, I was blowing Jacques Lafitte. No, wait... Anyways, this Guy Ligier was responsible for my first love for F1. He was also one crazy mother****er. The kind that, had he be around nowadays would be called an obnoxious b#####d but, with as with other b#####ds (Hunt comes to mind) is remembered as a "colorful personality" Bon voyage, Guy.

Ibanez Flying V Bass, 1975, Excellent+, (9.0) No serial # on first year. 100% original. These Basses have an impressive woody tone. Very rare, very cool. Quality instument from the mid 70's. I just put new strings on it and detailed it. It's set up perfect. Plays great, sounds great, looks great. Big time cool factor. This 45 year old Bass should be priced twice what they go for. Don't like buying mail order? Come to my studio in St. Augustine and plug it in! "GREAT GUITAR"
Personal checks are fine. Out of state checks clear in a day or two now. Wire transfers work. Sorry, no credit cards.
UPS mainly. In 45 years I've had one claim and they paid it. I don't like Fed Ex but I'll use them if you want. Don't expect them to pay a claim on a vintage guitar. Proper packing prevents problems. You got to double box expensive guitars and amps.
I don't buy anything I wouldn't want for myself. It's very rare I'll buy something that's not 100% original, but if it has changed tuner buttons or been refretted, I'll tell you. Detailed, accurate descriptions only. I go to a lot of trouble to pack this stuff right for shipping so it will arrive undamaged. 24 hour approval on guitars. I sell only really nice amps, fully serviced, no return on amps.

I sometimes invent languages. A few get pretty large in size, but most of the time I pop off a quick sketch to see how some idea might work out. The larger ones:
I also keep a blog for random thinking about language construction, Acta Lingweenie. Also a tumblr of the same name, Acta Lingweenie.
A tool for those working on their dictionaries, a Conlanger's Thesaurus. I've been working on some code to generate semantic maps for this on my own, Cross-Linguistic Semantic Maps.
The Hypomnemata Glossopoetica is a very terse collection of notes I've made over the years of things I want to consider when I start a new language. It's mostly typological and lexical. Some of it will be opaque to anyone but me, but I'm sharing it in the hope others will find it of use.
Like so many conlangers who also know a little about writing software, I have written my own word generation tool, Lexifer. Known to work under Linux, OSX, and Windows with a little terminal encoding tinkering.
