When I started running my parent's restaurant, I could tell that there were a few things that needed to change. Instead of working with the same old vendors and hoping for the best, we decided that it would be smart to mix things up by hiring a new food supplier. It was amazing to see the difference that move made. Overnight, our food selection grew and our customers were enjoying better dishes. We noticed a significant improvement in customers, and it was really fun to see the business grow and grow. This blog is all about how the right food supplier could help you.

It's been said that variety is the spice of life. However, somehow, people forget this statement when it comes to their pizza toppings. The average person sticks to pepperoni, ground beef and peppers when choosing toppings, but there are a number of other options you can choose from. If you're looking to break out the box, learn just some of the unusual toppings you can choose from that are just as satisfying.
If you want a refreshing pizza, consider adding strawberries. One great idea is to pair the strawberries with chicken, feta cheese and a light drizzle of balsamic vinegar. Strawberries help balance out the flavors and the subtle sweetness of the strawberries help liven up the pizza and breakup the bold flavor of the balsamic vinegar.
In addition to boosting the taste of your pizza, this fruit selection can also add texture and color, making it look more appealing and appetizing. Lastly, you can also benefit from the extra dose of vitamin C and antioxidant qualities strawberries contain.
Avocados are often linked to salads and Spanish-inspired dishes, but baked avocado on a pizza is basically your own little dish of delicious. Avocados have a naturally mild flavor that can serve as a compliment to just about any food selection. However, to truly bring out the richness of this food option, consider pairing it with onions and roasted pepper.
As an added tip, it's a good idea to bake the avocados for a few minutes before placing them on your pizza as the avocados often take longer to cook than the time it would take to cook the pizza.
Sure, enjoying pizza is often the time to eat badly, but it doesn't hurt to add a little healthiness, right? Cauliflower is the way to go. Cauliflower is an excellent source of vitamins B6, C and K, as well as potassium, manganese, protein, thiamin and a host of other nutrients.
If you're worried about a vegetable-tasting pizza, don't. Cauliflower is basically a blank canvas that you can season and prepare to take on any flavor you want. You could also consider roasting the cauliflower in olive oil and garlic before adding it on your pizza for a rich flavor.
The next time you get ready to make a pizza at home or head out to your favorite pizza parlor, make sure you aren't just looking at the staples. Think outside the box, expand your palate and prepare to be amazed. For more ideas, talk to professionals like Nossack Fine Meats Ltd.

NYK Recognized Parent-friendly Third Time On
NYK has been recognized as a parent-friendly company by Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare for a third consecutive term, previously receiving recognitions in 2007 and 2011.
NYK was recognized for achieving the targets of its third action plan covering the four-year span of April 1, 2011, to March 31, 2015, in accordance with Japan's Act on Advancement of Measures to Support Raising Next-generation Children.*
During this period, all female employees giving birth participated in NYK's child-care leave program. In addition, various support schemes for child-rearing employees were introduced, child-care leave for fathers was promoted, and the amount of overtime was reduced. These achievements were evaluated, and the company was then presented with the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare's "kurumin" accreditation recognizing the company as parent-friendly and confirming the company's measures to support the development of the next generation.
Goals of NYK's Third Action Plan (Fiscal 2011–2014)
(1) Parental leave by at least five male employees over a period of four years
(2) A parent-friendly work environment in which leave to care for children can easily be taken
(3) Initiatives to improve children's understanding of their parents' workplaces at NYK
NYK understands that enriching employees' daily lives is essential for good health and spirit, and will thus continue to support a work-life balance through positive child-care measures based on the company's newly established fourth action plan.
Reference: For detailed information about NYK's activities to create employee-friendly workplaces, please see the link below.
* Act on Advancement of Measures to Support Raising Next-generation Children.
A law obliging business owners to make it possible for their employees to balance work and child-raising against societal challenges, as evidenced by the declining birthrate. The law requires that business owners cooperate to improve conditions so that the next generation can be born and raised in a healthy environment. The law was recently amended to extend the period of application to March 31, 2025.

Readying for Bond
Amazon is about to deliver and soon we'll be delving into Solo, the new James Bond thriller by William Boyd. As we prepare for this thrilling treat, let's ponder the cover of the second Ian Fleming 007 story, Live and Let Die, which was published in April 1954 in Britain by Jonathan Cape. It has to be said that it does not represent a triumph of art. Given that the action-packed adventure catapulted Bond from the jazz joints of Harlem to the emerald waters of the Everglades in pursuit of the ruthless Mr Big, the flatness of the cover is even more perplexing. Perhaps it was the Fleming/Bond philosophy that baffled the designers.
"No, when the stresses are too great for the tired metal, when the ground mechanic who checks the de-icing equipment is crossed in love and skimps his job, way back in London, Idlewild, Gander, Montreal; when those or many things happen, then the little warm room with propellers in front falls straight down out of the sky into the sea or on to the land, heavier than air, fallible, vain. And the forty little heavier-than-air people, fallible within the plane's fallibility, vain within its larger vanity, fall down with it and make little holes in the land or little splashes in the sea. Which is anyway their destiny, so why worry? You are linked to the ground mechanic's careless fingers in Nassau just as you are linked to the weak head of the little man in the family saloon who mistakes the red light for the green and meets you head-on, for the first and last time, as you are motoring quietly home from some private sin. There's nothing to do about it. You start to die the moment you are born. The whole of life is cutting through the pack with death. So take it easy. Light a cigarette and be grateful you are still alive as you suck the smoke deep into your lungs. Your stars have already let you come quite a long way since you left your mother's womb and whimpered at the cold air of the world. Perhaps they'll even let you go to Jamaica tonight. Can't you hear those cheerful voices in the control tower that have said quietly all day long, 'Come in BOAC. Come in Panam. Come in KLM'? Can't you hear them calling you down too: 'Come in Transcarib. Come in Transcarib'? Don't lose faith in your stars. This happy landing at Palisadoes Airport comes to you courtesy of your stars. Better thank them." Ian Fleming, Live and Let Die

They are men and women from across the State of Israel, in Los Angeles, Florida, New York, Toronto and around the world who stepped up to be swabbed. They are our heroes who came out to save a young woman whose world has been turned upside down by cancer!
Roni Cohen had her whole life ahead of her. The 27-year old bride-to-be was due to get married to her fiance, Bar, in September. Leukemia sabotaged these plans.
Ezer Mizion's targeted drive aimed to swab 10,000 potential Yemenite, Moroccan and North African donors in the search for the perfect genetic match to save Roni's life.
The response was absolutely overwhelming! Thousands converged on 36 testing stations across Israel, as well as in California and Florida, to be swabbed in the hopes of being a match for Roni.
Our New York office shipped hundreds of swab kits across the USA to heroes who hope that they will be the lifesaving match to save Roni!
The drive even brought out the Israeli Chief of Police, who joined the drive with his family and shared that he "hopes a match is found from among my family; that would be our greatest honor to save Roni's life!"
And in just a few days, over 16,200 DNA sample were collected and are being tested!

Encouragement For Today July 11, 2018 : From the Bible - James 4:4
Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
When Will We Take Action?
"If we abide by the principles taught in the Bible, our country will go on prospering and to prosper; but if we and our posterity neglect its instructions and authority, no man can tell how sudden a catastrophe may overwhelm us and bury all our glory in profound obscurity" —Daniel Webster, 1821.
Our founding fathers objected to a tea tax of one-half of one percent, and gave their lives in return. Will we object if our children are routinely indoctrinated in homosexual ideology in our public schools? The homosexual community has come out of the closet; why hasn't the church done the same? Will we take a stand if imperfect babies are being killed in hospitals after they are born? Will we protest if the state tells our pastor what he can and cannot say from the pulpit? What if the state assumes "ownership" of our children and tells parents how they must raise them—under penalty of losing custody? Will you take action then?
Will we argue if Christian businesses are required to satisfy a quota of gay and lesbian employees? Will the Church cry out if universities refuse to grant degrees to outspoken Christian students? Will we let our voices be heard in defense of our beliefs when every tenet of our faith is legislated against in Congress?
Listen to the echo coming form Valley Forge. Look at the American patriot—stained with blood, hungry, barefoot, standing in the snow with his musket firmly grasped. He fought in those conditions and now we are armed with the right to vote, yet we sit at home on Election Day because the weather is bad. That patriot left his family alone and destitute to allow us freedom of speech, yet we remain silent to avoid political incorrectness or repercussion. He orphaned his
crying children in order for us to have a representative government, but through neglect we have allowed that government to become the master of our children and the murderer of the unborn.
crying children in order for us to have a representative government, but through neglect we have allowed that government to become the master of our children and the murderer of the unborn.
All of the aforementioned are now in process in America. At what point will we have had enough? To make any compromise with the world is to be guilty of treason against God. James states, "A friend of the world is an enemy of God." When will we take action?
Devotion taken from Pastor Hagee's book Bible Position on Political Issues

Smithsonian features salmon and tribe's effort to save it
WASHINGTON — Below the 45-foot model of a right whale named Phoenix, behind the case that holds a rare giant squid and not far from the remains of a prehistoric coelacanth that was caught off Africa is an exhibit highlighting Pacific Northwest salmon and the Nisqually Tribe's efforts to restore a wild run.
Though it may not be the flashiest display in the new, $49 million Sant Ocean Hall at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History, curators say that it's a unique story about a fish that migrates thousands of miles against almost overwhelming odds before returning home to spawn.
There's also a human side to the tale. Salmon are the lifeblood of a Native American culture that stretches from Northern California to Alaska, and restoring the dwindling runs is an almost sacred duty. The northwest Pacific Coast became the most heavily populated Native American region because of the salmon.
"Without salmon, we would cease to be Indian people," reads a quote in the display from the Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission.
Picking the Nisqually to feature in the exhibit was an obvious choice because of the tribe's efforts to restore a wild Chinook run that was all but extinct. Its efforts serve as a model for similar projects throughout the region, said Jill Johnson, a Smithsonian exhibit developer who spent five years working on the new oceans hall. It's the largest salt marsh-restoration project in Puget Sound.
"This is the perfect story," Johnson said.
The exhibit is housed in four cases that are dimly lit to protect the artifacts. There are replicas of a Chinook that could weigh 40 or so pounds, and a smaller silver salmon. There are carvings of half-human half-fish salmon boys, salmon-shaped rattles, clubs, spears and harpoon points used to catch salmon, and a beautifully decorated paddle and headdress. Photos show Yakama Indians fishing on the Klickitat River and Tulalip Tribe purse seiners fishing on the sound. There are explanations of first-salmon ceremonies and other celebrations.
Hanging above the display cases is a 26-foot, hand-carved canoe from the Tlingit Nation in Alaska. On the bow is a replica of a raven. According to the story, a raven with a broken wing showed up when the canoe was being carved in Juneau.
Under the headline "Nisqually Tribe Takes the Lead" are pictures and text explaining the tribe's efforts to restore the salt marsh habitat that's vital to the Nisqually River's salmon runs.
"The Nisqually Indian Tribe from Washington state plays a crucial role in the recovery of the endangered Chinook salmon," the text reads, adding that the tribe, along with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, has restored more than 800 acres in the river's estuary where juvenile salmon rest before starting their saltwater journey.
Photos show tribal members working with federal biologists to identify and count juvenile salmon, and students from the tribal school returning salmon carcasses to the river, which helps restore nutrients to the water.
Every year, the efforts of a different tribe will be featured, but the Nisqually are first.
"We asked our anthropologist to find a tribe to illustrate the efforts of the Native Americans to rebuild the salmon runs, and the Nisqually Tribe was chosen," Johnson said.
Two tribal elders were on hand when the exhibit opened in September.
Cynthia Iyall, the Nisqually tribal chairman, said that the exhibit was important because it reminded tribal members of the importance of the salmon and the river they live next to. The exhibit explains to the outside world that the tribe's very existence has been tied to the salmon runs for thousands of years, she said.
"The salmon is hugely significant for our tribe," she said. "It's what maintains our people."
In the late 1960s and 1970s, the Nisqually River delta, in south Puget Sound between Tacoma and Olympia, was the scene of some of the angriest clashes between Indians and fish and game officials as tribes fought to assert their fishing rights.
In the 1950s and 1960s, the city of Seattle wanted to build a garbage dump along the estuary, and Weyerhaeuser wanted to construct a log export facility, said David Trout, the tribe's natural resources director.
The major problem, however, was a series of earthen dikes that early homesteaders had built more than 100 years ago, which turned salt marsh into pastureland. The tribe and the Fish and Wildlife Service are removing the dikes now.
Where once the Nisqually Chinook run was virtually wiped out, roughly 1,200 wild fish returned this past year.
"It appears it has been working," Trout said.
Tribal officials said they were surprised when museum officials contacted them about the exhibit.
"I was checking my e-mail one day and there was this e-mail from the Smithsonian," said Jeannette Dorner, the tribe's salmon recovery-program manager. "I thought I should open it. We weren't even aware they were looking for a tribe."
Dorner has seen the exhibit, and said it was an amazing experience.
"I think they did a very good job," she said.

Singapore — Within minutes of using an app to book a ride, Agostino Fernandes was looking down on lush greenery from a helicopter taxi high above Bangalore — one of several Uber-style chopper services taking off to help commuters tackle increasingly congested megacities.
In under 30 minutes — a quarter of the time it would have taken from downtown Bangalore by road — Fernandes was strolling through Kempegowda International Airport to his gate.
"It's much better than the usual car or taxi because it saves time," he told AFP.
From New York to Jakarta, chopper-hailing services have been taking off to help commuters beat the traffic chaos.
Private helicopter charters have been available for decades — at a price — but the latest services are far cheaper and more accessible to the public, allowing anyone with a smartphone and a credit card to order a ride with relative ease.
Sameer Rehman, Asia-Pacific managing director of Bell Helicopter, said chopper manufacturers were predicting more such services in traffic-clogged parts of Southeast Asia in particular, describing it as an "important testbed" for the wider region.
"That can be replicated throughout other cities and countries in the Asia-Pacific," he said at a conference in Singapore.
Another similar service was recently launched in the Indonesian capital Jakarta, a chaotic metropolis of over 10 million people, which suffers some of the world's worst jams.
Operated by Whitesky Aviation, Helicity now has about 60 customers each month, mostly from the business world.
Its services include a 20-minute ride from Jakarta airport into the heart of the city for six million rupiah ($430) for up to four people, as well as a 45-minute flight from Jakarta to Bandung, 150 kilometers away, from 14 million rupiah.
While it offers an alternative to sitting in traffic for hours and is cheaper than private charters in the past, the prices are nevertheless out of reach for most people in Jakarta, where the monthly minimum wage is about $250.
In Bangalore, one of India's most congested megacities, HeliTaxii launched in March, offering a seat in a helicopter from the airport to IT industrial park Electronic City for about $65 per person — the same journey that Fernandes took on launch day.
In Brazil's Sao Paulo, the app Voom offers a 30-kilometer helicopter ride to the airport for about $150 — 10 times cheaper than private charters in the past — while in New York, a chopper-hailing service ferries people between downtown and surrounding airports.
Despite the growth of such apps, industry players warn there are still major hurdles.
One is finding suitable take-off and landing sites, particularly in Asian cities.
Helipads have been springing up rapidly in recent years but a large number are private and observers warn many have not been certified as safe by aviation authorities. — AFP
Another is restrictions on flying times. Whitesky Aviation chief executive Denon Prawiraatmadja said that since the Jakarta service's five-strong fleet of choppers was for civilian purposes, they were currently only allowed to fly between 6:00 am and 6:00 pm.
Similarly in Bangalore, Helitaxii is only allowed to fly from 6:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., and in a later slot between 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.

Letters to the Editor
Oprah's vision
Kudos to Oprah Winfrey, a visionary human architect. The ultimate meaningful gift of the Academy for the Girls in South Africa is going to be a shrine of learning for the multitude of orphaned, homeless and deprived children for decades to come. What better way to bring dignity to human existence than through education? I hope Oprah's entourage of entertainers are inspired.
I know there are those who question the choice of location. The United States is the richest country in the world, whose blessings most of us enjoy. As I am writing this letter, I hear on the national news that a famous soccer player, an Englishman now playing in Madrid, is being hired by the Los Angeles Galaxy to the tune of $250 million. I wish someone would tell me that my hearing is bad.
We as a society must modify our priorities. It's the people at large who support the multibillion-dollar entertainment and sports industries. It's only fair for those "chosen" ones to share their blessings. I am sure it will be a better world to live in no matter where you are.

Hello everyone,
I firstly want to make it very clear that this is not a begging letter and I want to emphasize that there is no lack of anything in Mount Zion Ministries.
Today I can declare before every living being in the universe that God has always been faithful and faithfully provides in all respects and at all levels. We don't have too many, but are never short of anything. Rather, God cares so well for us that we can give to others, as recent reports indicate. Where God is going to take this ministry, I do not know, because we are going to need more members in the Body around us than before. I feel that a major breakthroughs is at the door.
The feeling is, after many inquiries, to give everyone the opportunity to personally engage in the Kingdom of God. Since we have sent out reports, several people inquired about how they could get involved in Mount Zion Ministries (MZM). I've laid it before the Lord, and received an answer from Him that I'd like to share with everyone.
Everyone is not as privileged as we are to be fighting in the front line and because it's just been me and Eleonor in the front line of this ministry, there's been times in the past where it's really been very hard and difficult. But through the years, the Lord has sent us precious people to surround us, to sharpen our spears also to provide water and food and to place the correct weapons in our hands. For this we praise the Lord. We've always received everything we needed to perform every task perfectly for Him. But now the Lord wants more people to get involved in MZM.
The Scripture I've received, is the parable where Jesus spoke about the workers who stood idle in the marketplace.
(Matthew 20)
The Scripture must be understood very well. Despite the fact that the workers started working at different times, they all received the same wage. God does not share the original wage with all, His reward is unlimited and fair. What the Spirit is trying to say is that everyone who wants to get involved in MZM in the future, will one day receive exactly the same reward as Eleonor and I, who started the ministry.
The task imposed does not determine the wage, it's obedience that determines it. My best advice to everyone is to lay the matter before the Lord and ask Him whether it is in His will that you should get involved in MZM. If thou wilt evaluate thy seed, which God has placed in your hands, how many crops will you one day receive accordingly? Have you sown, that which you have sowed, in fertile soil prepared by God, or based on emotion or flesh? If you feel that the Spirit doesn't want you to get involved in MZM, you don't need to read any further. Then we believe it's God's will, but I would like to ask that you will pray and ask the Lord where you should get involved, if you are not already involved somewhere in His Kingdom. Engage somewhere in His kingdom, time is running out and opportunities are passing by.
It is a sign that you want to get involved because of the fact that you kept on reading. Therefor that I have decided to elaborate a bit more about our operations. I would firstly like to say that everyone already involved in MZM, is placed under the protective cover (covering) of MZM, the person, as well as all that God has placed in his / her hands.
(Please just remember that all our services are free. We NEVER take any collections or offerings. Everything we give and distribute is free, such as Bibles, clothes and food etc..)
We also cover our own travel expenses, as well as our accommodation and meals if needed, that is if we should have to travel. We carry all our costs ourselves, because we are provided of all by God whom in return, uses His servants to provide for us.
1. We are involved in Liberation and Counseling Ministries
2. We teach people about the Spiritual World and how to stay in control of what God has placed in their hands – also the reason we're offering a course subject to this matter.
3. We have Telephone counseling service, which as far as possible, is manned 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, situated in Namibia.
4. We've got a Intercession Team for people requesting prayers, which is asked only in God's will. They also pray for us as we go out and they are the ones that stays with the baggage.
5. We also serve in conferences and speak on Men-, Women- and Couples Events.
6. We strengthen the "Precursors" whom from time to time grew tired and weary along the way.
7. We serve in churches and teach people how to live freely and in victory.
8. We provide food, clothes and other needs to Orphanages.
9. We do Outreaches to poor and remote areas in order to bring the Word to people in distant areas. We also provide things like food, Bibles, spiritual literature, blankets, clothes, etc., to them. Our goal is to do a bit more than the usual, so that Christ's love for people can be proven through it.
10. We are already planning sequels to outreaches for next year and will also complete the "BIBLES FOR AFRICA" project in 2014, wherein we, in the past, distributed more or less 600 Bibles in Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana, we also serve them with the Word.
11. We also serve people in hospitals and retirement homes on request.
Please now allow me to now quickly share the following testimonies:
1st Testimony:
About a year ago or so, we visited a town in order to help a certain someone. It so happened that a certain person has heard about us and asked us to please visit an old aunt in a nursing home, she has broken both her hips and has been lying flat on her back with severe pain for months.
We had to go through a dining hall to get to her. All the other elderly people were busy eating. When we walked into the old lady's room, we noticed that she was lying flat, struggling to eat, she was unable to reach her plate of food. We greeted her and in short, she told us that she had her hip replaced the previous year in a state hospital in Windhoek. Sadly, it still ached much and soon afterwards she also broke her other hip. She's been lying like that for six months, waiting for an available place in the hospital.
The Lord showed me that her condition was the way it was because of her un-forgiveness to one of her sons. I accompanied her in prayer in which she tearfully confessed and acquitted him. We anointed her hips and prayed for healing.
When we later rode out the gates of the old age home, we saw the old lady walking into the dining hall carrying a plate of food, perfectly healed and without pain.
2nd Testimony:
On another occasion, myself and a friend of ours, were asked to help another old lady in a nursing home, she was supposedly demon possessed. In short, the Lord transformed me that day into the form of her husband.
With tears and deep sorrow she was able to fix and declare her sincere love for her "husband". At one point she very indignantly asked the sister why she never told her that her "husband" was visiting, she would have liked to have worn her special red dress for him.
Of course it all involved a great vale of tears.
The history regarding, is that she and her husband used to farm. Then one day, a heated argument flamed up between them. It caused her husband to rush out the door, jump in his truck, drove of and then sadly, died in an accident. This deeply troubled her throughout her entire life. It's probably been 35 years afterwards that God has sent us in order to help her. The Almighty changed me into her husband's form and she therefor could fix her case with him.
I know we are never allowed to count the folk, but through the glory of God, I just want to mention that MZM literally serve thousands of people annually with the Bread of Life.
People, Jesus needs us and who will go if we won't go? The work is too much for me and Eleonor alone. We need people across the country to help us as people everywhere are crying for help. We have recently again received a truck load of old clothes that we had to transport from Edenvale to a poor settlement in the Vereeniging area. It took a few weeks before we were able to find someone who was able to help with the distribution of it.
Apart from everything already mentioned, we're involved in much more things, we're also helping people with serious mental health problems, such as "witchcraft", etc.. We're involved in some Kruiskyk-recordings where we performed special orders from the Father. But that's enough said.
If you feel that you would like to get involved in any projects, feel free to contact me at any time. It would be a great honor to see teams operate the assignments that the Father has given us across the country.
I would lastly like to ask that if you want to financially contribute to a specific assignment, such as children's homes, loans, food, Bibles for Africa, etc., that you'll please indicate it as such in the reference column. The funds will therefore then be used where necessary.
We would like to once again make it clear that we're sending this letter because people do not always have the opportunity to personally become involved in projects as they would prefer. It's like one certain family said with the report about Aroab, they realized that they were not in the place where God wanted them and they wanted to return to His will and engage in God's work.
This is your opportunity to get involved in MZM (Mount Zion Ministries).
MZM always has room for another, we realize it's not about us, but about the next soul who needs Jesus and are crying out to Him, we can only achieve this with the helping hands of our brothers and sisters.
God bless all of you.
Love and Greetings in Christ
Gert & Eleonor

Today's scientific development is giving new life to dental care and dentistry at large; a life that surprised everyone. Since the 17th century, many have changed, but some things are the same. For example, no one likes dental problem even up till date, and today no one is ready to go to surgery, and many do not like going the treatment.
Dentist of the 17th century – 18th century
It's a time when very little about the functioning of the body is known, or it would be better to say "almost nothing". A barber-surgeon was a dentist at the time. When people were suffering from teeth, they used a local barber-surgeon. The doctor used to remove the rotten tooth from the mouth. It often happens at the periphery of the tooth. People are used to rebuilding the drum in the patient to divert it. The drum was closer to flushing the extraction. When advertised as toothbrushes, these hairdressers used a big tooth at the entrance of the door.
During the period of 17th to the 19th century, they had no "dentist" or "dentist treatment". It was not a cure for a dental infection. So, there have been many important changes and progress at a time when our grandfathers, children and these changes will form the basis for today's brilliant dental work. Our grandparents and the people who gave a new life to the host dentist, respect, honour, we will give you interesting facts about the history of dentistry.
Dentistry of 19th century
In the nineteenth century, people began to know how the body worked, including teeth. It was a time when people began to discover the function of the human body, which ultimately remained in the medical sciences. The doctors began to pay attention to the needs of the dentist. In the same century, electricity became a revolution in life and brought new progress and new meanings. The present invention also provides a new standard for medical science and dentistry. There have been many dental specialties in this century. For example, orthodontic treatment (1901), oral (1918), time (1918) Prostheses (1918) and oral pathology (1946). Later in that century, the dentist appeared as a licensing profession.
Dentist of the 20th century
In the 20th century, the dentist acquired a whole new and incredible life. Fluoride treatment was performed. The concept of oral and systematic health has evolved. More specialists have begun to pay attention to dental problems that have led to an increase in the number of dentists. The detection of penicillin has provided new teeth care. In this century, people have realised that dentistry is a safe career choice.
However, our grandparents practised dentistry in a very exciting time, and the development of dentistry is not finished yet; an increasingly fast pace, as it is now scattered around the world, many scientists in the world doing dental inventions are simpler and more interesting. We are grateful to the scientists who made dentistry better and more efficient.

AppleInsider Podcast discusses the idea of an ARM powered MacBook, the latest from Google, and MicroLED rumorsThis week on the AppleInsider podcast, Neil and Victor talk about the possibility of an ARM CPU in a Macbook, Google's new devices, and more.
In our latest episode, AppleInsider editors Neil Hughes and Victor Marks discuss:
- ARM CPUs in MacBooks. We've had this rumor on and off for years, but it's started making noise again. Neil and I both think it could be real on a long enough timeline.
- Victor and Neil both like Apple's work on MicroLED displays. The guess is that Apple would use it to make longer-life or always on Apple Watch displays
- Apple acquired the init.ai team. Init.ai was working on artificial intelligence for customer service. The application here is clearly Siri improvements.
- Production issues with the TrueDepth camera indicate iPhone X production will be limited to about 30M units. Previously it was thought output might be higher.
- Major League Baseball is testing Apple's NFC for ticketing. This is the first use of Apple's devices for this application.
- We talk about all the Google devices - Home Max, Home Mini, and the Pixelbook.
- And the 70 USD Roku stick. It seems like Apple has vacated the $99 price point. Sure, it's easier to come down than raise prices, but Apple hasn't had a problem doing either in the past.
- Victor is optimistic about Parker, an augmented reality child's toy that's now an exclusive in Apple Retail
- Neil still likes his Apple Watch Series 3, and talks about the Nike+ version coming out
- We talk a little about the Beats Studio3, which has the W1 chip for seamless bluetooth handoff across Apple devices, and active noise cancellation.
- Neil mentions charging - we made a video that shows the speed difference between wireless charging and wired, and Neil still is a little frustrated by the cost of cables and power supplies required to charge the iPhone at its fastest.
- We sent Mikey to the GoPro event a few days ago, and he got to go hands-on with a number of the new GoPros. Neil likes the 360 ones the best. The best news is, they use the same HEVC video codec that iOS 11 and macOS High Sierra are using now, as well as Apple TV 4K.

County clears way for zone extensions
Grand Rapids city commissioners will vote on extending the Renaissance Zone status for three properties on Tuesday now that Kent County Commissioners unanimously authorized an agreement on Thursday morning with the city's Economic Development Corp.
The pact calls for the city's EDC to refund the property-tax and millage revenue the county will annually lose from extending the nearly-tax free status of those parcels, as city commissioners are all but certain to approve the extensions next week.
But the city will only have to reimburse the county those tax dollars for the years that the total amount of tax revenue the city abates and exempts exceeds 10 percent of its total tax roll. Once the city falls below the county's 10-percent threshold, the refunds stop.
The city currently abates and exempts 12.3 percent of its tax roll. But City Manager Kurt Kimball said earlier this fall the city would drop below 10 percent in two years.
City Economic Development Director Kara Wood told the Business Journal that True North Architecture, Construction and Investment, Via Design and Wealthy Street Historical Development LLC still propose to develop the properties, which have been in the Ren Zone since 1997. The zone's current tax benefit, which exempts most state and local taxes, expires at the end of 2011.
Wood said the extensions are good for 12 years. But with three years of partial exemption left in the current zone, from 2009 through 2011, the sites will get 15 years of some sort of tax relief. Wood also said the county's total tax millage on all three properties was $750 this tax year.
The state will also have to ratify the three time extensions, if city commissioners approve the requests. Wood said next Wednesday is the deadline to get the extension applications to the state in order for the requests to go into effect in 2009.

The hat skips a generation/
Last fall, my mother- and father-in-law moved out from California to be nearer to us in Maine. It's been a real blessing and a privilege for many reasons, not least is that the kids get to spend more time with this set of grandparents.
The boy has been spending a lot of time with his grandfather, Dardo.
They look more alike every day.

The first step to accessing other dimensions is stilling your mind. A busy mind churns out endless streams of thoughts that serve as anchors to third-dimensional reality. It is one of the great ironies of human existence that we rush here and there looking for something, trying to achieve something. When we are anchored into third-dimensional reality our spirit is enslaved by our busy mind, making it impossible for us to recognize the very thing we're looking for. When we slow down and listen to the whispers of our spirit, we find what we're looking for in the spaces between our busy, linear thoughts. The more we focus on these spaces, the more they expand. Soon they become large enough to provide passage into universal mind.
Inside universal mind we are able to travel to any time or place to find the answers to our questions and so much more. Here we are able to download the templates for new ideas, new books, new works of art, and new inventions. Everything is accessible to us within the moment when we remember to slow down, still our minds and travel meridians of silence into universal mind.
When we still our minds we open a space to expand into silence. Our higher self flows into this space and our vibration enters resonance with higher dimensions. Inside these higher frequencies, we are able to step free of linear time and travel into other dimensions. As we travel meridians in higher consciousness, we pull more of this energy into our daily life. This transforms our experience, allowing us to see every moment through the lens of love, peace and abundance.
You are the Most Enlightened Self in your Present Lifetime
You are the most aware, intuitive and enlightened self thus far in your present lifetime. As such, it is your job and your privilege to serve as the higher self for all your selves throughout the course of this lifetime. You are a beacon of healing light capable of assisting and entraining other aspects toward their journey into the new time where peace, joy, love and opportunities to higher service abound. The opportunities before you now are remarkable and profound. The challenges you are approaching may seem overwhelming but these quickly dissolve as you reach into your storehouse of higher knowledge and wisdom.

We are the original college town.
We number somewhere over 200,000. We are Suffolk. BU. Northeastern. BC. Wentworth. Emerson. Simmons. Harvard. Emmanuel. UMass. AI. Tufts. MIT. MassArt. Berklee. Bentley. Lesley. More. We live in Back Bay, the North End, Southie , Beacon Hill, Kenmore Square, Allston, JP, Fenway, Eastie, Dorchesta', the North and South shores...
We club on Landsdowne and shop on Newbury. We don't go in the common alone at night. We don't walk the freedom trail or ever quack back at the duck tours when they pass. We parallel park like pros. We don't quite understand the alarming amount of tourists in our city. We don't "signal" when we turn. We don't pronounce our 'R's. We don't take the orange line if we can avoid it. We don't take the flowers from those crazy ladies downtown thinking they're free. We work hard. We play hard. We don't like the Yankees. At all.... (we yell "yankees suck!" at various public functions that have nothing to do with baseball.)
Our weekends start Thursday afternoons and sometimes include Tuesday nights. We are all 21 on nights out, whether our birth certificates confirm so or not. We are guys, girls, white, black, tall, short...smart (and on scholarships), dumb (and owing more than our life's worth in student loans...). We live for bars that don't card. New York Pizza at 1 am. Warm days on the common. Fire & Ice. Sunday Pats Games. Cambridge side Galleria, Copley Square and Downtown Crossing. Blizzards cancelling class. Hempfest. Keg parties in Allston. Crazy people on the T. Bums asking our broke asses for money. All-nighters in the dorms. Drunken cab rides. We're defined by the roommates we've had, the parties we've attended, the classes we've taken, the people we've kissed...those that we've missed. Nights of laughter. Nights of tears. Hellos, goodbyes, "I'm sorry"s, "I'll call you"s, "what's your major?"s and everything in between...but most of all, we are the friendships we've made and the bonds we've built. The people may fade, but the memories never will. We're just small kids in a big city...but we are Boston. Now, and always.
Walks through the common to class. Crazy nights at 150 and 10. Beirut tournaments at 131. "Take me to the motherfuck!ng statehouse." The Shang. Skipping class to go shopping downtown and Fanieul Hall. The Red Hat. Red Sox riots at 150. Spying on people through the atrium at 10. The Park Street T stop. Talking to everyone (including roommates three feet away) on AIM. Smoking with the EuroTrash infront of Sawyer. Talking to the security guards when drunk. Takeout from Podima, Venice and Takeout Taxi. Yelling sh!t at Emerson Radio when walking by on Tremont street. The foreign math department and needing a translator for class. Late night blunt walks on Beacon Hill. Being pains in the ass for Sisco and the rest of the dining hall crew. The lady at 10 that doesn't charge anyone... for... anything.
Pre-gaming and getting ready in the dorms. 7-11 on Tremont at all hours of the night. The mob of people in front of the elevators at Sawyer. The Purple Shamrock, The Point, and the other Fanuiel Hall Bars. Pool games in the dorm basement. Deciding Fenton is too far of a walk to class. Only attending the Student Organization things that advertise "FREE FOOD!!" in huge letters. Dozens of kids crammed in a Beacon Hill 2 bedroom with a beerball (our version of a frat-house kegger). Hunting for quarters and dropping $1.25 on laundry in the basement. Illegal appliances in the dorms. Presenting half-assed projects to CEOs as freshmen for Business O&L. The view from the 19th floor lounge (or the 18th floor quad!) at 10. Drunk walks up Temple Street. Losing student IDs every other day. The wind on Ashburton Place in the winter. The crazy nights all over the city and the lazy days on Beacon Hill. We are the Rams, the Sofuckers...the student's who have Boston's ritziest neighborhood as their playground. We're on top of the world (or at least a the hill))....and we like the view from here.

Relationships / innate worth
Part of my healing is understanding how trauma bonded I am to abusers and to work towards a new normal. When I first read that a good romantic relationship is an easy relationship, it was foreign to me. When people commented that they argued twice in a year or can count on one hand how many times they have argued versus marriages in the double digits, I was shocked. Every relationship I had was turbulent, save for the one when I was studying in Boston, away from my family's influence. I was a total pushover in every other relationship. I would choose people ranging from emotionally available, to self-centred and yes, narcissistic. It's gut wrenching looking back because I had the illusion of love to comfort me for a while and now I don't. I have also bought into the "be nice" rhetoric so absolutely that it meant me "being nice" and everyone looking to be themselves.
I left every single one of them after they emptied me out and still asked for more. I would go into it fresh and optimistic, come out of it broken and a former shadow of myself. I would silently let things slide, big things, small things, little things, anything. To me, love meant enduring, the more I endured, the more I suffered, the more I was proving to myself and my partners that I did love them. I thought they got it, well yes, they did, they have no interest in reciprocating. Their respect for me declined as my insecurity grew exponentially. I no longer felt safe, I was completely out of sync, like a battered laptop running on an ancient OS. Glitches galore, feeling completely outside of myself. I am still surprised today that I didn't overheat and go up in smoke or drown under the crashing weight of a sudden tsunami. My only explanation is God looking over me.
After I left, they would ask to reconcile. I would look at them mystifyingly and wonder if it took a break up to be together, was there anything worth salvaging? I walked away only after exhausting all avenues, so once I do, I do. One thing was for certain, their chronic problems would always stand in the way of the deep connection I wanted to nurture. Our level of awareness would never level up, as they grow, I will too. Certain exes would look for me repeatedly over a span of years and tell me I was the best they ever had. Then, I felt momentarily comforted that I have done my best, now I know better, I was the best because most people aren't pushovers which means they don't get their way as often. They were tools as much as I was a fool. That love, if you can call it that (insert epic eye roll), meant that I was to sacrifice myself at their altar. Zzzzzz. Not much to celebrate here other that I truly gave it my best, albeit misguided shot.
Recently, I have been questioning myself what could I have done differently? I was ALREADY a pushover, what more did you want from me? The sad truth is that I have inadvertently become an enabler to their persistent power struggles. Case in point was an ex whose default emotion is anger. She was a miniature Hulk in stature but BIG on temper, I could see the rage emerge in shallow breathes, puffing away like a bull on acid. While I was the reluctant Matador who didn't even get a consolatory blinged out costume to go with.
It was so bad, it was almost comical. She would get mad over parking a car, over a dirty toothbrush she assumed was mine, over the fact that I hated driving. She would emotionally hold me hostage in a corner with my back against the wall. To her friends, she came across as understanding and even kind, she left all the "best" for me and took the best of me. The last straw came when she pounced on my moment of weakness to reveal a series of lies.
It happened after an emergency wisdom tooth extraction, urgently required during the holidays. All the clinics I called were closed so my options were severely limited. The ragtag team of dentists were so incompetent, it took them 4 times longer than usual. I know this because I had the other 2 extracted subsequently, with zero pain and in record time. At several intervals, I could feel everything and it was excruciating. I had to repeatedly ask for more local anaesthetic. The equipment was so shady that it stopped repeatedly. It's quite a nightmare. I came out of the office, visually shaking. I told her about it in the car and she threw out some empty words of purported comfort, along the lines of "I'm sorry you had such a bad experience" and remained mostly distracted.
When we got home, even before the bloody gauze was out of my mouth, she told me about how she was in debt and demanded that I help her pay it off. There were no apology about how I asked her about her finances repeatedly because I could always sense her anxiety. Or how is it that she chose to lie over a span of months. Brilliant. She chose a time when my mouth was still numb from anaesthetic and I was still drooling. I asked her what did she spend it on? I was surprised because she didn't come across as extravagant. Drinking, she replied. As we all know, alcohol cost a ton in restaurants and can really add up. I asked her why can't she pay it off herself? The amount wasn't impossible for her, she would be able to pay it off within half a year if she watched her finances. She became angry with me. Typical. Ask me to take responsibility for her problems when it was hers to shoulder.
By the way, this was the alcohol that I purposefully pulled her away from because she had the habit of drinking 4-5 times a week before I met her. It was also the reason for one of our arguments, she asserted that I was trying to control her. WHAT? I didn't restrict who she went out with and when, I just didn't think it was healthy to drink so much. I even talked about choosing non-alcoholic drinks and still meeting up with her colleagues. She was picking a fight as usual, a chronic repetitive problem.
Come on, life is hard enough. To create a problem when there isn't one is just plain ridiculous, to be so unappreciative on top of it is just ??? Who the hell was she? I asked myself. Yes, so now I had another "child" when I was already a parent to a parent. Shit.
I remember I asked her once, what are you so angry about? She was flabbergasted. She threw her anger at me because she could, ironically because she felt safe, she couldn't even articulate this. I do take my fair share of responsibility, I wanted so badly to contribute to their lives, to earn their love, to fill the hole inside of me. I would bend over backwards until I can't anymore and snap like a twig, be harsh with my words as a last resort to an unbearable situation. I was so guilt ridden and so shame driven that I was unable to address my discomfort immediately and negotiate without fear of reprisal. Even then, those moments are few and never quite as hurtful.
I was always much better at punishing myself. I was quick to apologise and make amends, something they all had difficulty doing. In part because I never did hold them accountable, thinking they would know when they have crossed the line, my mistake is overestimating her level of awareness and using self-denial as my shield. Also, my need for love trumped my knowledge about what is healthy love so from the get go, I would choose all the wrong people, it was set up to fail. It was an exquisite form of self-torture, all too familiar.
So now I am slowly rebuilding trust in my choices, overturning everything on its head while grieving the lost of time wasted on incompatible choices. It's mind-blowing how abuse has creeped its gnarly fingers in the pockets of my life and came up with long forgotten lint, leaving no Kleenex for my tears. Still, at the core of me, lays a seed of resilience. A seed that during days I feel too weak, uses my tears to flourish. I know I will get past this, I have to go through the motions of healing. I am a survivor, always have been. The only way is through and I am coming! I am thankful that I never did compromise my morals along the way, not once. I was capable of doing far more damage or at least throw back the same amount. There have been times when I have been tempted, but I never did.
For all those who are rebuilding their lives, take heart that you have all you need inside. You don't feel like it all the time and its OK. It doesn't go away. You are powerful beyond belief, you just might not know it yet.
You are deserving of a mutually loving partner, someone who protects all the fragile bits of you with a gentle hand and a warm heart. Someone who believes in you, listens to you. Someone who stands in the eye of the storm with you and never say die. This is my wish for you.

Anger - The Ultimate Disconnection
I recently went to a talk entitled Kintsugi: Embracing Our Brokenness, it's part 1 of a 3 part series about healing the brokenness in relationships and embracing the idea of living comfortably with brokenness. Other than enjoying the talk, what stood out to me is what one of the participants mentioned. She expressed her struggle of dealing with lifelong anger issues in the midst of tears.
As a reformed magnet for angry emotionally unavailable people (ahem) and then as someone who experienced not just anger but 23 years of justifiable rage in one full swop, I had to do the necessary deep healing work. Living whole was a possibility, now it's a reality. Post-awakening life is crazy good, it's so good, its hard to put into words and not sound boastful.
My conclusion is out of the 3 main components of healing - mind, body and spirit, while all do contribute to well-being, the last one is the most important and often the most neglected. Healing is best done holistically.
As mentioned during the talk, anger is a secondary "emotion", it's an umbrella for many primary emotions like disappointment, worry, etc. Some don't call it an emotion at all. I'm a huge believer in honouring all of your being, sitting with them and finding your own truths. Instead of putting them in boxes and labelling them with Rah Rah or Blah, which works against you. To fully accept self, you have to embrace the light as well as the darkness. Absolute freedom is acceptance of self and others.
Anger is a reminder to self-care, it's a call to be centred again. It's particularly destructive because of the lack of information. Anger expressed often causes the other person to shut down and do the mannequin challenge. Anger internalised is self-punishment. Both feed reciprocal disconnection, escalating into resentment if left untouched.
As a woman and/or a lesbian, there are many things to be justifiably angry about, discrimination, stigma, misogyny, etc. There's no doubt that the list is long. Understanding the roots of oppression gives you a clearer idea of what is your scope of responsibility and what isn't. Once you understand how you lose your voice daily to these societal forces, it will alleviate the guilt, shame and blame that often stands in the way of change.
Also, your worth is innate, born into, not earned. You might not recognise it yet and it's OK, life is a journey of continuous learning, we are all teachers and students. If you are ready for change, you have already taken a huge leap towards a breakthrough. Force yourself out of your comfort zone too much, too soon and it will be unbearable, you might even give up. Keep checking in with your inner voice, you have all you need inside. Healing work isn't linear, it can be 2 steps forward and 1 step back, it's normal, it's human. As long as you are moving forward, you will enjoy the fruits of your labour.
Be gentle, be kind to yourself, everyone is perfectly imperfect, that's the beauty of it.

Hairy Porter
Dear Sisters,
A recent conversation with a friend left me feeling unsettled. She spoke about how she was judged and subsequently rejected by a guy for coming from a divorced family. He didn't give them a chance to get to know each other better. Said guy comes from a privileged family and is rather sheltered. She's disappointed because she sensed that they had a unique connection. When he heard the word divorce, automatically, he said, "too much baggage."
I told her this.
Good riddance, I would ask you to reconsider even if he did choose you.
To judge her for the choices her parents make, reeks of immaturity. Families fall apart for many reasons, as a child she had no say in it. It was unfortunate that she witnessed their quarrels and had to deal with conflicted emotions as a child. She has since addressed them and have worked through it. Only unaddressed issues continue to affect someone, why is that so hard to understand? She always knew those were negative examples and didn't buy into them for a moment. There are indeed children like her who take the opposite path precisely because she knew how hurtful those moments can be.
The thing is, she has been tried and tested. Just like glass that goes through fire in the hands of the maker, it becomes a work of art. This fire primed to destroy also made her wise beyond her years, this spirit of resilience and strength has seen her through many other fires in other areas of her life. As a result she became the parent she never had. A caring, understanding person with grit.
As for him, I am unsure if he can hold it together when things fall apart. We don't know what the future holds and finding a partner to brave the storm together is an essential. It's easy to enjoy the good times, who doesn't know how?
It's those times when the going gets tough and you will still need to show up that you will know what someone is made of. Those are the times that will seal the bond between 2 people. Those are the times when you can grab her hand, wave them in the air and say we made it! We made it together! Now, we celebrate!
So Sisters, the next time someone judge you for your family, remember this, it is a reflection of someone's inability to show empathy for choices beyond your control. Why would you want someone like that?
You tell that Hairy Porter to carry his own baggage and get out of here ASAP.
Comment below if this speaks to you. Your life stories like mine are valuable to the other women here.
I can't wait.

Love Letter To The Broken Hearted
I know you don't trust love now. Love has betrayed you. Love has abandoned you. Love has hurt you. Love has left you.
One little step, day after day. One foot after another. You will heal. Sometimes you take 2 step forwards and 1 step back. It's OK. Life isn't meant to be linear, the same goes for healing. We stop and we start again. We fall and we get back up again. The important part is getting back up again.
