Front Runners List: Click to see list completion progress by climbers that log their climbs using Peakbagger.com.
Compare Climbers: Click to compare ascents of up to 5 climbers working on this list.
The Seven Summits list has become very popular, and over 80 people have climbed all of them now, in the footsteps of Dick Bass and Patrick Morrow. But as of 2012 only one climber (Hans Kammerlander) has claimed completion of this "second seven" list, and his claim is subject to some doubt.
There are two very interesting facts about this list. First is that most all of the summits are clearly separate peaks, often a long distance away from the continent high point. There is little controversy over whether a minor sub-peak deserves the #2 rank - all but one of these peaks has huge prominence and is a clear runner up. Mount Logan is higher than the North Peak of Denali, and Mount Kenya is higher than any Kilimanjaro sub-peaks. The only questionable call is over the Australia/Oceania second highest peak, where Sumantri is pretty close to Jaya/Carstensz and has approximately 350 m/1150' of prominence. (Recent reports are that the snow cover on Ngga Pulu has melted, reducing its height and leaving the rocky summit of Sumantri as the new second highest peak in New Guinea and therefore Oceania).
Another compelling feature of this list is that every peak (again, excepting Sumantri) is generally regarded as harder to climb than its corresponding "Seven Summits" peak. A contributor to this is that these peaks are not as popular, so there is less climber infrastructure in place, but even discounting that factor this list is more daunting. There is serious rock climbing on Mount Kenya, a longer time at high altitude for Mount Logan, the difficulties of K2 speak for themselves, and so on.
A final note: Surveys of peaks in New Guinea can be questionable and other candidates for the second highest peak are Ngga Pilimsit, Mandala, and Trikora, all above 4500 m. Also, Dykh-Tau is only 5 meters higher than Shkara, so the second highest peak in the Caucasus (which, by the rules of the Seven Summits game, is presumably all considered in Europe) is not 100% certain.

Police and Fire
Officer assaulted
Chippewa County Sheriff Deputies were called to a South Towering Pines residence shortly before 2 a.m. Saturday in response to a call from a Bay Mills police officer in need of assistance.
According to reports, the tribal officer was investigating a vehicle in a ditch when a suspect began swinging. A lengthy struggle ensued leaving the officer with injuries which were not believed to be life threatening before the suspect was apprehended.
James C. LeBlanc, 42, of Brimley was subsequently booked into the Chippewa County Jail for aggravated assault on a police officer, resisting and obstructing and operating while intoxicated.
The officer was conveyed to War Memorial Hospital for treatment of unspecified injuries.
Retail fraud
Sault Police were called to an I-75 Business Spur retail store Sunday afternoon where loss prevention personnel had detained a woman attempting to leave with sleeping aids, yogurt, juice and a pop.
Nichole P. Biron, 26, of Cheboygan was arrested for retail fraud and booked into the Chippewa County Jail.
The recovered items had a combined value of $27.78.
Drunk driving
Chippewa County Sheriff Deputies report observing a vehicle making a wide turn and speeding with an expired plate prompting a traffic stop shortly before 2 a.m. Sunday.
The driver explained she was trying to get her passengers to a nearby fast food restaurant before it closed with deputies noting an odor of alcohol and other signs of intoxication during the initial stop.
A battery of failed sobriety tests resulted in the arrest of the driver. Kara D. Heggaton, 20, of Palmer was arrested for operating while intoxicated. She was also cited for an expired registration before being booked into the Chippewa County Jail.
The passengers were released with a warning after they were able to secure rides from the scene of the arrest.
Warrant arrests
Chippewa County Sheriff Deputies report four recent warrant arrests.
• Shannon M. Mendoskin, 34, of the Sault was arrested Friday on an outstanding warrant. Mendoskin was picked up in the 300 block of W. 9th and booked into the county jail.
• Gene K. Brody, 47, of the Sault was arrested near the intersection of M-129 and Three Mile on the force of a friend of the court warrant Friday evening. Brody was also ticketed for no insurance before being booked into the Chippewa County Jail.
• Frank C. Snay, 49, of Trout Lake was arrested on a failure to appear warrant out of Ottawa County Friday night at a Trout Lake Township residence. Snay was booked into the Chippewa County Jail.
• Melissa J. Pancheri, 32, of the Sault was picked up Sunday evening at a Dafter Township residence on the force of a failure to appear warrant; she was also booked into the Chippewa County Jail.
Suspended licenses
Area law enforcement agencies report four recent arrests after coming into contact with drivers who were unable to produce valid licenses.
• Christopher S. Talentino, 22, of the Sault was arrested for driving while license suspended (DWLS) after his snowmobile became stuck near the intersection of Swinton and East 4th. Sault Police had observed the machine engaged in erratic maneuvers and also witnessed it fail to stop at a posted intersection before the sled became stuck in a snowbank. Talentino was also cited for careless driving before being booked in the Chippewa County Jail. His sled was towed from the scene.
• Shaun J. Fish, 27, of the Sault was arrested for DWLS Saturday morning after Chippewa County Sheriff Deputies concluded their investigation into a drive-off at a local gas station. Store personnel provided authorities with a description of the vehicle after it had departed with $7.05 in fuel. Fish reportedly compensated the store for his fuel before being booked into the county jail.
• Brett W. Windsor, 21, of the Sault was cited for DWLS and failure to change address after deputies conducted a traffic stop for a loud exhaust on Friday near the intersection of M-129 and 13 Mile Road. Windsor was also given a warning for the loud exhaust before he was released with a future court date.
• Gina E. Hoglund, 34, of the Sault was stopped Friday for an expired tag and subsequently ticketed for DWLS. Hoglund was released with a future court date.
Vehicle damaged
Sault Police were called Friday to 3 Mile Road after a snowmobile groomer was involved in an accident with a westbound vehicle approximately 400 feet from Mackinac Trail.
According to reports, the groomer had cleared the roadway with all of its warning lights functioning, but the driver of the oncoming vehicle did not see the heavy piece of equipment being dragged behind the device.
The resulting impact left the vehicle in an undriveable condition, but the groomer and its load were not significantly damaged.
There were no citations issued.
False alarm
Sault Firefighters were summoned to a Cascade Crossing clothing store at 3:46 p.m. Sunday for a fire alarm.
The store was evacuated without incident and firefighters spent more than an hour checking the structure to make sure there was no sign of smoke or flames before determining the alarm itself had malfunctioned.
Employees and customers were allowed to return to the building and a repairman is slated to visit to determine the cause of the malfunction.

Revision as of 14:40, 2 July 2013
This page provides instructions for building the Eclipse Platform using preferred technologies identified as part of the CBI initiative.
- 1 Prerequisites
- 2 Build environment setup
- 3 Building
- 4 running the tests
- 5 Troubleshooting
- 6 Submitting for aggregator builds
Free HDD space
- ~25GB is recommended.
Oracle Java 1.6 or higher
- Oracle 1.6 JDK needs to be on PATH (OpenJDK also works and is becoming officially supported on Red Hat Enterprise Linux for Kepler. See plan).
- Verify correct version of java is used
- Set JAVA_HOME to point to your JDK
- Ensure your java is set to run in Server mode
Some of the inner build callouts, like the SWT fragment build, depend on having an Oracle JVM.
(Seems that currently all JDKs from 1.4 to 7 with a configured toolchains.xml are needed to get a successful build. See Bug report and Mailing List)
Java Server Mode
A parameter used by the build "-XX:-UseLoopPredicate" is not recognized by java when running in Client mode. To check which mode you are running in by default run:
$ java -version java version "1.7.0_09" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_09-b05) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.5-b02, mixed mode)
If the last line says "Client VM" instead of "Server VM" then you are running in client mode. In which case you will need to modify the file /jdk1.7.0_09/jre/lib/amd64/jvm.cfg and ensure that the line -server KNOWN is the first line in the file.
Maven 3.0.4
- Download from http://maven.apache.org/download.html or use your Linux distribution provided version (whether it works depends on the distribution).
- make sure mvn is available in your PATH
- You can install Git using your distro's package manager.
Using Maven on Ubuntu
The Maven included in Ubuntu sometimes has issues. See Bug report. If you face such issues, install Maven from the Maven Homepage.
Using Maven on Fedora
Maven package included in Fedora is working without a problem and is used to build the Eclipse Platform package shipped with Fedora.
Mac OSX
- Download from http://code.google.com/p/git-osx-installer/
- Install using the downloaded DMG file
- Download Git for Windows from http://msysgit.github.com/
- Install using the downloaded exe file
- We recommend using the "Git Bash" application provided by Git for Windows as your commandline shell throughout the build
Important: Per Bug 376400 we discovered that msysgit has a max character limit somewhere around 256 which causes cloning files with a path longer than that to fail
See: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=376400#c4
Workaround: Put your repo in the root of a drive and give it a short name. For example: C:\z
cd c: git clone -b master --recursive \ git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/platform/eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator.git \ z
Note: The final "z" parameter at the end of the command is important as tells git to checkout the repository and rename it to "z". This reduces the path length of the repository to be short enough to workaround Bug 376400.
Build environment setup
Note: Unless otherwise stated, these instructions apply to Linux, MacOSX, and Windows platforms
review maven settings.xml
To avoid getting hit by bug 365727 and to make sure your local environment configuration does not interfere with CBI build, make sure build user account does not have maven settings.xml
igor@desktop:~$ ls -l ~/.m2/settings.xml ls: cannot access /home/igor/.m2/settings.xml: No such file or directory
On Windows XP this is located in:
C:\Documents and Settings\your_user\.m2\settings.xml File should not exist, if it does delete it.
On Windows 7 this is located in:
C:\Users\your_user\.m2\settings.xml File should not exist, if it does delete it.
give maven JVM more ram
export MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx2048m
If your using Windows:
SET MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx2048m
Note: Unless otherwise stated, these instructions apply to Linux, MacOSX, and Windows platforms
We're currently working on the master branch and are backporting patches to R4_2_maintenance and R3_8_maintenance.
A script that captures the steps is available in [1]
cloning platform source tree
Replace master with the branch you'd like to checkout.
Clone the repository and checkout the branch:
git clone -b master --recursive \ git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/platform/eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator.git
To update this clone and all submodules:
cd eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator git pull --recurse-submodules git submodule update
If you want to switch from another branch to this one, replace git merge origin/master with:
git checkout -b master origin/master
Check for Necessary pom.xml updates
From time to time committers will forget to update the bundle version contained in a pom.xml when a bundle version change is made in a bundle project manifest. If building from master you should likely check the latest I-Build from the eclipse project downloads page for a link called POM updates made to see if there are any outstanding patches that you should apply before allowing a successful local build.
Running the build
From the aggregator root, run:
mvn clean verify
NOTE: If you build multiple streams on the same system, you'll want to add -Dmaven.repo.local=/some/directory/somewhere to the end of the 3 mvn commands to avoid collisions (Using a different local repo for each stream). Most casual developers won't be affected.
- On Windows use -Dmaven.repo.local=C:\path\to\somewhere
Build result
Once the build finishes, the following artifacts are created.
Packaged SDK zip files are located in your eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator directory under
P2 repository
Source bundles
Packaged JUnit Plugin Tests and Automated Testing Framework
Cleaning the build repo
To completely clean a build repo (before a new build or before updating the aggregator and submodules):
git submodule foreach git clean -f -d git submodule foreach git reset --hard HEAD git clean -f -d git reset --hard HEAD
To get a pristine build repository, after a build, you will have to specify the -x option for git clean.
git submodule foreach git clean -f -d -x git submodule foreach git reset --hard HEAD git clean -f -d -x git reset --hard HEAD
The reason is that /targets is specified in the .gitignore file, so git ... ignores them. They are included in .gitignore so they are not accidentally committed and don't clutter visual displays of "changes". Normally Maven will clean those up before a build, but in case you want to be positive you do not get an "old" copy, of one of the target artifacts, use -x.
Using BREE Libs
BREE libs can be used to build using the same BREE as what is used on build.eclipse.org. You will first need to download and install the ee.zip attached to Bug 386649 (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=386649) and follow the instructions in the description of the bug.
Here's an example of toolchains.xml. It currently only works with Oracle JREs (see bug 389856). Someone running the platform build would need their own version of toolchains.xml in their build ids home directory's .m2 directory (~/.m2/toolchains.xml) which points to the location on their file system of the tools required (BREE libs and JDKs).
Once setup you can inform the build to use it by passing -Pbree-libs on the mvn build command.
Pack200 & Signing
Pack200 & Signing is supported when built using build.eclipse.org and is disabled by default.
- Simply Run the build with -Peclipse-sign parameter.
If you'd like to build your own version of the eclipse-jarsigner-plugin you can use the instructions below.
Eclipse Jarsigner can be built from: http://git.eclipse.org/c/cbi/org.eclipse.cbi.maven.plugins.git
git clone -n git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/cbi/org.eclipse.cbi.maven.plugins.git cd org.eclipse.cbi.maven.plugins git checkout master mvn -f eclipse-jarsigner-plugin/pom.xml \ clean install
Building natives
Optionally, you can pass -Dnative= parameter with one of the following options to compile the natives for the specified native.
- cocoa.macosx.x86 - cocoa.macosx.x86_64 - gtk.linux.x86 - gtk.linux.x86_64 - win32.win32.x86 - win32.win32.x86_64 - win32.wce_ppc.arm
mvn clean verify \ -Dmaven.test.skip=true -Dnative=gtk.linux.x86_64
running the tests
Copy the junit tests and the CBI SDK (pick the one for your platform) that was built to a testing directory. Also unzip the junit tests.
mkdir -p /var/tmp/lts/R3_platform-tests cp eclipse.platform.releng.tychoeclipsebuilder/sdk/target/products/org.eclipse.sdk.ide-linux.gtk.x86_64.tar.gz /var/tmp/lts/R3_platform-tests cp eclipse.platform.releng.tychoeclipsebuilder/eclipse-junit-tests/target/eclipse-junit-tests-bundle.zip /var/tmp/lts/R3_platform-tests cd /var/tmp/lts/R3_platform-tests unzip eclipse-junit-tests-bundle.zip
Modify the file equinoxp2tests.properties to point to the CBI built repository. (This example uses /home/user/R3_platform-aggregator as the CBI platform root)
Note down the org.eclipse.equinox.p2.reconciler.tests.platform.archive.linux-x86_64= file name for your architecture. (In this example linux x86_64)
Rename your org.eclipse.sdk.ide-linux.gtk.x86_64.tar.gz you copied earlier to match the name you jotted down.
mv org.eclipse.sdk.ide-linux.gtk.x86_64.tar.gz eclipse-platform-201204121421-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz
Copy your eclipse-platform to eclipse SDK
cp eclipse-platform-201204121421-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz eclipse-SDK-201204121421-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz
Download a copy of the latest released Eclipse Classic from http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/.
Copy the Eclipse Classic SDK to eclipse-platform
cp eclipse-SDK-3.7.2-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz eclipse-platform-3.7.2-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz
You should now have 4 copies of the platform, 2 from the latest released and 2 from the CBI build.
eclipse-SDK-3.7.2-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz eclipse-platform-3.7.2-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz eclipse-platform-201204121421-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz eclipse-SDK-201204121421-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz
Unzip the CBI platform
tar zxvf eclipse-platform-201204121421-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz
Run the tests
./runtests -os linux -ws gtk -arch x86_64
Bug 384482 - Apple JVM renamed rt.jar to classes.jar causing CBI Platform build issues
Apple JVM renamed rt.jar to classes.jar causing the CBI Platform build to fail when building on macosx. Running the build a 2nd time after the failure however produces a working build. It isn't ideal to have the user run the build twice though.
A workaround for this issue is to create a symbolic link for classes.jar to rt.jar.
cd /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/Home/lib sudo ln -s ../../Classes/classes.jar rt.jar
Submitting for aggregator builds
[Note: see Platform-releng/Automated Platform Build#Contributing_to_a_build for the "how to" using the automatic processing done by the Platform-releng/Automated Platform Build. But, this "manual" approach is still important to know how to do, especially as "good citizens" if the aggregator build is broken, a "fix" can often be made before the next automated build.]
In PDE build the features specify what plugins to build and the map files specify where to get the plugin projects and which version to check out.
In the CBI build the pom.xml files and the directory structure specify what plugins to build and the aggregator git repo specifies which checkout is the build input by capturing the commit for each component repo as a submodule entry.
The manual process for submitting Platform UI for a build involves updating the submodule in the aggregator:
# starting in eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator cd eclipse.platform.ui git checkout R4_2_maintenance git pull cd .. git status
The status should look something like:
# On branch R4_2_maintenance # Changed but not updated: # (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed) # (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory) # (commit or discard the untracked or modified content in submodules) # # modified: eclipse.platform.ui (new commits) #
To pull in the new commits, just add the repo:
git add eclipse.platform.ui git commit git push origin HEAD
These steps are be driven by a file named repositories.txt used by Platform-releng/Automated Platform Build at the beginning of an automatedd build.

SoftwareReviews names HOPEX Platform, LeanIX Enterprise Architecture Management, Capsifi Jalapeno, SAP PowerDesigner, and SAMU as Enterprise Architecture Data Quadrant Award Winners.
Data Quadrants are proudly founded in 100% user review data and are free of traditional "magical" components such as market presence and analyst opinion, which are opaque in nature and may be influenced by vendor pressure, financial or otherwise.
The SoftwareReviews Data Quadrant evaluates and ranks products based on feedback from IT and business professionals. The placement of a software in the Data Quadrant indicates its relative ranking as well as its categorization.
A thorough evaluation and ranking of all software in an individual category to compare software across every dimension.
30+ pages
Note The axes ranges are dynamically adjusted based on minimum and maximum values in the dataset
When distilled down, the software experience is shaped by both the experience with the software and the relationship with the vendor. Evaluating enterprise software along these two dimensions provides a comprehensive understanding of the product and helps identify vendors that can deliver on both.
The satisfaction is captured in the overall satisfaction score, which is driven by the likelihood of users to recommend the software, combined with user satisfaction across top product features.
The vendor relationship is calculated in a weighted average of the satisfaction scores tied to vendor capabilities (e.g. software implementation, training, customer support, product roadmap) as well as emotional response ratings toward the vendor (e.g. trustworthy, respectful, fair).
For the full list of vendors in this space, click here.
SoftwareReviews Gold Medal Awards recognize outstanding vendors in the technology marketplace as evaluated by their users. Gold Medals are the capstone of an in-depth software evaluation report, and awarded using a proprietary, transparent methodology based on a composite satisfaction score that averages four different areas of evaluation: Net Emotional Footprint, Vendor Capabilities, Product Features, and Likeliness to Recommend. The Net Emotional Footprint Score measures user emotional response ratings of the vendor (e.g. trustworthy, respectful, fair).
Software Reports present comprehensive evaluations of software vendors on the above elements. Software buyers can use this data to make more informed, data-driven software purchasing and renewal decisions.

Summer reading lists are always heavy with big fat beach novels. Thrillers, bodice-rippers, science fiction.
But make some room in your tote bag for this: "Bobcat," a slim volume of short stories by a prodigiously talented writer, Rebecca Lee. Her work is at once effortless and exacting, sophisticated and ribald.
And when individual stories last for only 30 short pages at a go, you can close the book — and your eyes — and lie back on your chaise to consider it.
The lead story, "Bobcat," is a prickly, affecting, hilarious and razor-like slice through a Manhattan dinner party attended by friends with shared histories, ambitions and secrets.
In it, a couple wobbles their way through preparing the kind of meal they think they should serve their guests: a terrine from "Food & Wine" magazine (which "rightfully should be made over the course of two or three days—heated, cooled, flagellated, changed over time in the flames of the ever-turning world, but our guests were due to arrive within the hour:); a roast "with an infusion of rosemary, palm and olive oils, and a nutty oil made from macadamias."
As the guests arrive, they reveal themselves as an entertaining, potentially toxic blend of couples, paramours, sharks and mice — one woman a serene-seeming Swede who'd sacrificed one arm to a bobcat during a Himalayan trek, or so she said; another woman a perceived sexual threat to the hostess' marriage; a charmless man whose affair with his officemate is known to everyone except his wife, who also happens to a descendent of the Donners.
(Yes, those Donners, the alleged cannibals, though Kitty Donner denies the claim: "There's no evidence in the fossil record.")
Relationships can crumble, or be mortared, in the course of a meal shared with friends, as Lee so skillfully exposes:
Every dinner party by the end is a bit of a defeat. After the halfway mark, when everybody is still in high-spirits, some even intoxicated, and the dessert still hasn't arrived, there is a moment when it seems like we are the most interesting dinner party in Manhattan tonight, we love each other, and we should do this all the time, why don't we do this all the time? Everybody is calculating when they can invite everybody to their house for the next dinner party.
But then there is the subtle shift downward. Somebody is a little too drunk. The bird, which was a bronze talismanic centerpiece, golden and thriving, is revealed as a collection of crazy bones.
This story is worth the price of the collection, though the other offerings are moving and strong. Lee, crafty and humane, infuses her characters like her roasts, with an array of flavors and textures.
The aggregate makes for a rewarding volume, one destined for dog-eared-ness as it gets passed around the pool.

It is our goal to keep your mouth healthy, your teeth fully functional, and your smile bright — and we are proud of all the services we offer to do exactly that. At the same time, we want you to understand all that modern dentistry in general has to offer you. To that end, we have assembled a first-rate dental library in which you can find a wealth of information on various dental topics, including:
Cosmetic & General Dentistry
From a thorough professional cleaning to a full smile makeover, there is an amazing array of services that cosmetic and general dentists offer to make sure your teeth stay healthy, function well and look great. If your smile is not all you want it to be, this is the place to start. Read more about Cosmetic & General Dentistry.
Emergency Dental Care
When you have a dental emergency — whether it's caused by a sudden accident or chronic disease — your teeth and/or the tissues of the mouth that surround them need to receive proper care right away. It's also important to be aware, before you're actually in the situation, of what you can do to ensure the best outcome. Read more about Emergency Dental Care.
This is the branch of dentistry that focuses on the inside of the tooth — specifically the root canals and sensitive, inner pulp (nerve) tissue. When this tissue becomes inflamed or infected, a root canal procedure may become necessary. But contrary to the popular myth, a root canal doesn't cause pain, it relives it. Read more about Endodontics.
Implant Dentistry
If you are missing one or more teeth, dental implants offer the comfort and security of a permanent replacement that looks and functions just like your natural teeth. Dental implants also help preserve the tooth-supporting bone in your jaw that naturally deteriorates when even one tooth is lost. Read more about Implant Dentistry.
Oral Health
Oral health is an essential component of general health and well-being. Good oral health means a mouth that's free of disease; a bite that functions well enough for you to eat without pain and get ample nutrition; and a smile that lets you express your happiest emotions with confidence. Read more about Oral Health.
Oral Hygiene
A major goal of modern dentistry is to help you keep your teeth and gums healthy for a lifetime. By following a conscientious program of oral hygiene at home, and coming to the dental office for routine cleanings and exams, you have the best chance of making this goal a reality. Read more about Oral Hygiene.
Oral Surgery
The word "surgery" often brings to mind a stay in the hospital, general anesthesia, and perhaps a lengthy recovery period. However, the experience of having oral surgery is usually very different from that. Some common oral surgery procedures include: tooth extractions, dental implant placement, and biopsies of suspicious oral lesions. Read more about Oral Surgery.
Adults and kids alike can benefit from the boost in self-confidence that comes from having a great-looking smile with beautifully aligned teeth. Orthodontic treatment can even improve chewing, speaking and oral hygiene in certain cases. And with today's virtually invisible orthodontic appliances, it's possible to keep your treatment a private matter… until your new smile is unveiled, of course! Read more about Orthodontics.
Pediatric Dentistry
It's never too early to get your child started on the path toward a lifetime of good oral health, and there are many services to do exactly that. Monitoring your child's dental growth and development, and preventing and intercepting dental diseases along the way, is the primary focus of pediatric dentistry. Read more about Pediatric Dentistry.
Periodontal Therapy
If you want to keep your teeth for life — a completely reasonable goal in this day and age — you need to make sure the tissues that surround them are also healthy. Should gum problems arise, you may need periodontal therapy to restore diseased tissues to health. Read more about Periodontal Therapy.
In the field of dentistry, new technology is constantly changing the way diseases are diagnosed, routine procedures are performed, and illnesses are prevented. Although they may seem unfamiliar at first, new and improved dental technologies offer plenty of real benefits for patients. Read more about Technology.
The complex devices all around us — from long-range satellite links in our cars and offices to powerful computers in our hand-held gadgets — prove beyond a doubt that we live in a technology-driven world. In the field of dentistry, new technology is constantly changing the way diseases are diagnosed, routine procedures are performed, and illnesses are prevented. Although they may seem unfamiliar at first, new and improved dental technologies offer plenty of real benefits for patients. Here's a look at some of the latest examples, coming soon to (or now appearing at) a dental office near you.
- Air Abrasion Technology. Bothered by the noise and vibration of the dental drill? This air-powered device could make that familiar high-pitched whine a thing of the past! Working like a mini-sandblaster for teeth, this hand-held device removes tiny amounts of tooth material with precision control.
- Anesthesia Wand. If you don't like needles, this may be just what the doctor ordered: a pen-like device that meters out the precise amount of anesthetic you need — and even pre-numbs the insertion site, so you really won't feel a thing!
- CAD/CAM Same-day Crown Fabrication. Hate to wait? By combining 3-D digital imaging and computer-aided design and manufacturing technology, it's now possible to have permanent crown restorations completed in a single day — much better than leaving the office with temporary crowns and coming back weeks later for permanent ones!
- Cone Beam CT Imaging. What's better than an x-ray of your teeth? An on-screen, movable 3-D representation of your jaws! By taking a series of x-ray "slices" and stitching the images together with a powerful computer program, Cone Beam CT imaging creates a virtual model of your mouth. It can be used to find disease, plan procedures, and visualize internal structures that formerly wouldn't have been visible without surgery.
- Dental Implants. Tooth replacement took a giant leap forward with the widespread use of dental implants — today's preferred method of replacing teeth. Dental implants are small titanium posts that replace the root part of your missing tooth. A realistic dental crown is then attached to the implant for a replacement tooth that looks and feels exactly like what nature gave you.
- Digital Dental Impressions. Remember biting down on a tray of putty-like material, so a model could be made of your teeth? A digital imaging device now makes that unnecessary. Instead, your teeth can be "dusted" with a fine reflective powder, which is then recorded by a special camera. A series of images is converted into a 3-D model, which can be used to assess a tooth's condition or fabricate dental restorations.
- Digital X-Rays. Diagnostic x-rays have long been invaluable to dentistry. The emergence of digital technology in the past decade, however, has made dental x-rays safer and even more useful. Digital technology cuts radiation exposure to patients by as much as 90% over traditional x-rays. And there are other advantages including the elimination of waiting time for pictures to develop, and sharper images that can be enhanced instantly to show detail.
- Intra-Oral Camera. A picture is worth… plenty, when it comes to helping you understand your dental examination, diagnosis and treatment! With these tiny cameras, you can see what the dentist sees, on a small chair-side monitor. The images of your teeth can be saved as stills or video — or even printed out — so you can see exactly what's happening in your mouth.
- Laser Diagnosis and Treatment. They're inside DVD players and scanner wands — and now, they are making their dental debut. Lasers are being used to detect tiny spots of tooth decay, treat gum disease, and remove cancerous cells in the mouth. They are also employed in gum surgery… even cavity treatments!

Atul Gawande has a remarkable and important article, titled "Hellhole" in the most recent issue of The New Yorker. In it, he examines some of the consequences of U.S. policy to hold "tens of thousands of inmates in long-term solitary confinement" and it's relationship with torture. Here are some excerpts.
* * *
Human beings are social creatures. We are social not just in the trivial sense that we like company, and not just in the obvious sense that we each depend on others. We are social in a more elemental way: simply to exist as a normal human being requires interaction with other people.
Children provide the clearest demonstration of this fact . . . .
* * *
. . . . [P]sychologists produced evidence of . . . deep and sustained damage in neglected and orphaned children. Hospitals were made to open up their nurseries to parents. And it became widely accepted that children require nurturing human beings not just for food and protection but also for the normal functioning of their brains.
We have been hesitant to apply these lessons to adults. Adults, after all, are fully formed, independent beings, with internal strengths and knowledge to draw upon. We wouldn't have anything like a child's dependence on other people, right? Yet it seems that we do. . . . [M]ankind has produced tens of thousands of human . . . [experiments], including in our prison system. And the picture that has emerged is profoundly unsettling.
Among our most benign experiments are those with people who voluntarily isolate themselves for extended periods. Long-distance solo sailors, for instance, commit themselves to months at sea. They face all manner of physical terrors: thrashing storms, fifty-foot waves, leaks, illness. Yet, for many, the single most overwhelming difficulty they report is the "soul-destroying loneliness," as one sailor called it. . . .
The problem of isolation goes beyond ordinary loneliness, however. Consider what we've learned from hostages who have been held in solitary confinement—from the journalist Terry Anderson, for example, whose extraordinary memoir, "Den of Lions," recounts his seven years as a hostage of Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Anderson was the chief Middle East correspondent for the Associated Press when, on March 16, 1985, three bearded men forced him from his car in Beirut at gunpoint. . . . His captors drove him to a garage, pulled him out of the car, put a hood over his head, and bound his wrists and ankles with tape. For half an hour, they grilled him for the names of other Americans in Beirut, but he gave no names and they did not beat him or press him further. They threw him in the trunk of the car, drove him to another building, and put him in what would be the first of a succession of cells across Lebanon. He was soon placed in what seemed to be a dusty closet, large enough for only a mattress. Blindfolded, he could make out the distant sounds of other hostages. (One was William Buckley, the C.I.A. station chief who was kidnapped and tortured repeatedly until he weakened and died.) Peering around his blindfold, Anderson could see a bare light bulb dangling from the ceiling. He received three unpalatable meals a day—usually a sandwich of bread and cheese, or cold rice with canned vegetables, or soup. He had a bottle to urinate in and was allotted one five- to ten-minute trip each day to a rotting bathroom to empty his bowels and wash with water at a dirty sink. Otherwise, the only reprieve from isolation came when the guards made short visits to bark at him for breaking a rule or to threaten him, sometimes with a gun at his temple.
He missed people terribly, especially his fiancée and his family. He was despondent and depressed. Then, with time, he began to feel something more. He felt himself disintegrating. It was as if his brain were grinding down. A month into his confinement, he recalled in his memoir, "The mind is a blank. Jesus, I always thought I was smart. Where are all the things I learned, the books I read, the poems I memorized? There's nothing there, just a formless, gray-black misery. My mind's gone dead. God, help me."
He was stiff from lying in bed day and night, yet tired all the time. He dozed off and on constantly, sleeping twelve hours a day. He craved activity of almost any kind. He would watch the daylight wax and wane on the ceiling, or roaches creep slowly up the wall. He had a Bible and tried to read, but he often found that he lacked the concentration to do so. He observed himself becoming neurotically possessive about his little space, at times putting his life in jeopardy by flying into a rage if a guard happened to step on his bed. He brooded incessantly, thinking back on all the mistakes he'd made in life, his regrets, his offenses against God and family.
His captors moved him every few months. For unpredictable stretches of time, he was granted the salvation of a companion—sometimes he shared a cell with as many as four other hostages—and he noticed that his thinking recovered rapidly when this occurred. He could read and concentrate longer, avoid hallucinations, and better control his emotions. "I would rather have had the worst companion than no companion at all," he noted.
In September, 1986, after several months of sharing a cell with another hostage, Anderson was, for no apparent reason, returned to solitary confinement, this time in a six-by-six-foot cell, with no windows, and light from only a flickering fluorescent lamp in an outside corridor. The guards refused to say how long he would be there. After a few weeks, he felt his mind slipping away again.
"I find myself trembling sometimes for no reason," he wrote. "I'm afraid I'm beginning to lose my mind, to lose control completely."
One day, three years into his ordeal, he snapped. He walked over to a wall and began beating his forehead against it, dozens of times. His head was smashed and bleeding before the guards were able to stop him.
Some hostages fared worse. . . .
* * *
"It's an awful thing, solitary," John McCain wrote of his five and a half years as a prisoner of war in Vietnam—more than two years of it spent in isolation in a fifteen-by-fifteen-foot cell, unable to communicate with other P.O.W.s except by tap code, secreted notes, or by speaking into an enamel cup pressed against the wall. . . . A U.S. military study of almost a hundred and fifty naval aviators returned from imprisonment in Vietnam, many of whom were treated even worse than McCain, reported that they found social isolation to be as torturous and agonizing as any physical abuse they suffered.
And what happened to them was physical. EEG studies going back to the nineteen-sixties have shown diffuse slowing of brain waves in prisoners after a week or more of solitary confinement. In 1992, fifty-seven prisoners of war, released after an average of six months in detention camps in the former Yugoslavia, were examined using EEG-like tests. The recordings revealed brain abnormalities months afterward; the most severe were found in prisoners who had endured either head trauma sufficient to render them unconscious or, yes, solitary confinement. Without sustained social interaction, the human brain may become as impaired as one that has incurred a traumatic injury.
* * *
. . . . This presents us with an awkward question: If prolonged isolation is—as research and experience have confirmed for decades—so objectively horrifying, so intrinsically cruel, how did we end up with a prison system that may subject more of our own citizens to it than any other country in history has?
* * *
The criteria for the isolation of prisoners vary by state but typically include not only violent infractions but also violation of prison rules or association with gang members. The imposition of long-term isolation—which can be for months or years—is ultimately at the discretion of prison administrators. One former prisoner I spoke to, for example, recalled being put in solitary confinement for petty annoyances like refusing to get out of the shower quickly enough. Bobby Dellelo was put there for escaping.
* * *
The prison administration gave Dellelo five years in the Departmental Disciplinary Unit of the Walpole prison, its hundred-and-twenty-four-cell super-maximum segregation unit.
Wearing ankle bracelets, handcuffs, and a belly chain, Dellelo was marched into a thirteen-by-eight-foot off-white cell. A four-inch-thick concrete bed slab jutted out from the wall opposite the door. A smaller slab protruding from a side wall provided a desk. A cylindrical concrete block in the floor served as a seat. On the remaining wall was a toilet and a metal sink. . . . A speaker with a microphone was mounted on the door. . . .
As in other supermaxes—facilities designed to isolate prisoners from social contact—Dellelo was confined to his cell for at least twenty-three hours a day and permitted out only for a shower or for recreation in an outdoor cage that he estimated to be fifty feet long and five feet wide, known as "the dog kennel." . . .
* * *
"This is going to be a piece of cake," Dellelo recalls thinking when the door closed behind him. Whereas many American supermax prisoners—and most P.O.W.s and hostages—have no idea when they might get out, he knew exactly how long he was going to be there. He drew a calendar on his pad of paper to start counting down the days. He would get a radio and a TV. He could read. No one was going to bother him. And, as his elaborate escape plan showed, he could be patient. "This is their sophisticated security?" he said to himself. "They don't know what they're doing."
After a few months without regular social contact, however, his experience proved no different from that of the P.O.W.s or hostages, or the majority of isolated prisoners whom researchers have studied: he started to lose his mind. . . . After a year or so, he was hearing voices on the television talking directly to him. He put the television under his bed, and rarely took it out again.
One of the paradoxes of solitary confinement is that, as starved as people become for companionship, the experience typically leaves them unfit for social interaction. . . .
Craig Haney, a psychology professor at the University of California at Santa Cruz, received rare permission to study a hundred randomly selected inmates at California's Pelican Bay supermax, and noted a number of phenomena. First, after months or years of complete isolation, many prisoners "begin to lose the ability to initiate behavior of any kind—to organize their own lives around activity and purpose," he writes. "Chronic apathy, lethargy, depression, and despair often result. . . . In extreme cases, prisoners may literally stop behaving," becoming essentially catatonic.
Second, almost ninety per cent of these prisoners had difficulties with "irrational anger," compared with just three per cent of prisoners in the general population. Haney attributed this to the extreme restriction, the totality of control, and the extended absence of any opportunity for happiness or joy. Many prisoners in solitary become consumed with revenge fantasies.
* * *
. . . . Everyone's identity is socially created: it's through your relationships that you understand yourself as a mother or a father, a teacher or an accountant, a hero or a villain. But, after years of isolation, many prisoners change in another way that Haney observed. They begin to see themselves primarily as combatants in the world, people whose identity is rooted in thwarting prison control.
. . . . As Haney observed in a review of research findings, prisoners in solitary confinement must be able to withstand the experience in order to be allowed to return to the highly social world of mainline prison or free society. Perversely, then, the prisoners who can't handle profound isolation are the ones who are forced to remain in it. "And those who have adapted," Haney writes, "are prime candidates for release to a social world to which they may be incapable of ever fully readjusting."
* * *
[A]ll human beings experience isolation as torture.
* * *
Prison violence, it turns out, is not simply an issue of a few belligerents. In the past thirty years, the United States has quadrupled its incarceration rate but not its prison space. Work and education programs have been cancelled, out of a belief that the pursuit of rehabilitation is pointless. The result has been unprecedented overcrowding, along with unprecedented idleness—a nice formula for violence. Remove a few prisoners to solitary confinement, and the violence doesn't change. So you remove some more, and still nothing happens. Before long, you find yourself in the position we are in today. The United States now has five per cent of the world's population, twenty-five per cent of its prisoners, and probably the vast majority of prisoners who are in long-term solitary confinement.
* * *
Advocates of solitary confinement are left with a single argument for subjecting thousands of people to years of isolation: What else are we supposed to do? How else are we to deal with the violent, the disruptive, the prisoners who are just too dangerous to be housed with others?
* * *
I spoke to a state-prison commissioner who wished to remain unidentified. He was a veteran of the system, having been either a prison warden or a commissioner in several states across the country for more than twenty years. He has publicly defended the use of long-term isolation everywhere that he has worked. Nonetheless, he said, he would remove most prisoners from long-term isolation units if he could and provide programming for the mental illnesses that many of them have.
"Prolonged isolation is not going to serve anyone's best interest," he told me. He still thought that prisons needed the option of isolation. "A bad violation should, I think, land you there for about ninety days, but it should not go beyond that."
He is apparently not alone among prison officials. Over the years, he has come to know commissioners in nearly every state in the country. "I believe that today you'll probably find that two-thirds or three-fourths of the heads of correctional agencies will largely share the position that I articulated with you," he said.
Commissioners are not powerless. They could eliminate prolonged isolation with the stroke of a pen. So, I asked, why haven't they? He told me what happened when he tried to move just one prisoner out of isolation. Legislators called for him to be fired and threatened to withhold basic funding. Corrections officers called members of the crime victim's family and told them that he'd gone soft on crime. Hostile stories appeared in the tabloids. It is pointless for commissioners to act unilaterally, he said, without a change in public opinion.

Runner, spectator get photos of marathon suspects

Bob Leonard and his family were Boston Marathon veterans and he preferred a spot not too far from the finish line to shoot runners as they concluded their 26.1-mile run. The area was less congested and over the years he learned that the men and women in the lead there usually went on to win.
With his Nikon, Leonard snapped about 10 to 20 photos a minute Monday, capturing group after group of finishing runners and the crowds lining the route.
Three days later, when the FBI released images of the suspects in the Boston Marathon bombing, Leonard used the time stamp shown on them to narrow his search of the hundreds of photos he had took that day. He realized that he, too, had photos of the faces of the two men authorities were searching for.
He uploaded them to the FBI and Friday morning, he saw his cropped photos all over the morning news.
"That finally gave them a good facial picture," the 58-year-old electrical engineer said. "It was a pretty good breakthrough."
The two men were later identified as brothers, 26-year-old Tamerlan Tsarnaev, who was killed in shootout with police overnight Friday, and 19-year-old Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev, distinctive in his backward white baseball cap. The younger man was captured Friday night after a daylong siege of a Boston suburb.
"They actually stood in that corner for quite a bit of time," Leonard of Taunton, Mass., said of the men, just before the younger brother was caught.
After combing the digital images, he was sure he had something the FBI could use. He tried to upload them to an FBI site that it had asked the public to use. Then he called the hotline number and was on hold for about 40 minutes, the response was so overwhelming. He finally got an FBI spokesman, who told him to upload them to another site. Within 20 minutes, someone from Homeland Security called him back.
"They were on the news ... clear pictures of the two subjects and those were the pictures that I sent in," said Leonard, who started photography as a hobby when his sons played high school sports.
He was not the only picture-taker to help with images of the suspects. Seconds after the bombs exploded, David Green pulled out his smartphone and took a photo of the chaos developing a couple hundred yards in front of him - the smoke, the people running in panic.
The Jacksonville businessman then put his phone back in his pocket and went to help the injured. It wasn't until Thursday, when officials released surveillance video of the two suspects, that Green realized what he had - a picture of Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev walking away from the scene.
When Green's photo of one of the Boston bombing suspects fleeing the scene first surfaced, there was considerable doubt as to its authenticity because of the very low resolution of the image, which made the photo appear to be a composite image. When Green later provided the high-resolution frame directly from his cellphone, editors of The Associated Press were able to establish its authenticity based on the improved resolution as well as the time the photo was taken. The AP has established an exclusive arrangement for distribution of the photograph.
Green, back at his home in Florida, wore his yellow and blue Boston Marathon jersey as he talked about the now-famous photo, his finisher's medal from the race propped on a shelf in his home office.
Green, 49, had finished Monday's marathon in 3 hours and 17 minutes, about an hour before the blasts.
After he recovered, he went back to Boylston Street, where the finish line is located, to watch the rest of the race with his friends. He realized his phone was dying, so he went into a nearby store with a recharging station.
About 15 minutes later, he was walking back to his friends when the first bomb went off.
"I thought maybe it was a cannon," Green said. Then the second one exploded as he was walking toward it.
"When I saw it, I pulled out the camera and immediately took that picture," Green said.
He then put it back in his pocket and went to help the injured, including a boy and others who were missing limbs.
"It was like battle - a lot of noise, a lot of smoke, people coming at me in a panic," he said.
A short time later, his friend Jason Lubin texted him and asked if he was OK. He replied with the photograph and a note: "It was just in front of me."
Lubin said Thursday, after the FBI released photos of the two suspects, that he decided to take a closer look at Green's photograph - on the off chance Green had captured anything unusual. He pulled up the photo on his smartphone and zoomed in on the crowd. There in the lower left corner was Dzhokhar Tsarnaev walking around a corner, his backward white baseball cap standing out amid the dozens of panicked people fleeing.
"I literally had to sit down," Lubin said.
Green contacted the FBI, which told him to send them a copy of the photograph.
"He is calmly walking, without panic," Green said of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.
Leonard also took pictures of the chaotic aftermath, smoke five stories high from the explosions that he said were deafening. He also saw a person who lost a limb before police rushed everyone away from the scene.
"The sense of loss tears your heart apart when you hear the victims' stories," said Leonard, who has lived in Taunton, about 30 miles south of Boston, since 1986 and knows what the race means. "It's just so senseless."
Associated Press writer Russ Bynum in Jacksonville Beach, Fla., contributed to this report.
