The past decade of combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan has given military physicians such as myself the important opportunity to gather unprecedented data on some of our most pressing medical issues. This data set has spurred advances in the care of trauma, hemorrhagic shock, traumatic brain injury, and other occupational injuries common to young men and women in combat. Our job, and indeed our temperament, is to make observations, gather data, test hypotheses, and solve problems all day long—all while in the middle of a combat zone.
Which brings me to one of the most common medical inquiries I receive in combat: "How the hell am I supposed to jack off up in this motherfucker?"
Whether you're in the military of civilian sector, many of you will be faced with this problem, and I want you to benefit from the cumulative experience of the bold young Americans of the Marine Corps infantry. Collectively, they have MacGyvered themselves out of scenarios that you and I have never even dreamt of, and I don't want you to feel stuck when a solution has already been devised, implemented, revised, and optimized.
I present to you a series of real-life scenarios that Marines and sailors in my infantry battalion have faced over the past several years, as well as the field-tested solutions they devised to handle each one. None of what follows is hypothetical. All have been successfully completed, and I have even witnessed a few of the outcomes. Following each solution, I present a rub (or friction point) that I hope you might avoid as you negotiate your own obstacles.
★ ★ ★
Scenario #1
You are embarked on a naval vessel and you decide to masturbate while in bed. Unfortunately, you lack the traditional "happy sock" in which you would normally deposit your ejaculate. Climax is imminent. Where will you deposit your knuckle babies?
Field-tested solution: Simply push the covers down to your thighs, roll over onto a hip, and ejaculate away from the wall and into the aisle between your bed and others' beds.
The rub: The beds, or racks, in the enlisted berthing areas of most naval vessels are disparagingly called "coffin racks" because they are tiny and arranged in columns of five. They are also in aisles so densely packed that any semen arcing down from your rack will be in plain sight to up to 30 of your comrades. This was the experience of the top-rack user in this scenario. Needless to say, he was immediately put to work cleaning the decks.
★ ★ ★
Scenario #2
You are in the shower aboard a naval vessel and decide to masturbate. You wish to avoid a repeat of yesterday's mishap when a senior-ranking member noticed the jellyfish turds on your shower shoes—evidence of reckless ejaculation. Climax is imminent. Where will you deposit your tub babies?
Field-tested solution: One may square one's shoulders to the bulkhead (shipboard term for "wall") and from near point-blank range be rather certain that the entire load is safely deposited on the bulkhead, away from one's shower shoes. Leaving it on the bulkhead is the most reliable way to ensure containment.
The rub: There is a special place in hell reserved for you. You will eternally clean the floors in a demonic porn theater where all the films feature old women doing Swedish drill and where everlasting ropes of electrified jizz will lash your back as you squeegee the tiles around your laughing patrons' frozen, hooved feet.
★ ★ ★
Scenario #3
You are on a defensive overwatch post at night, alone in your shallow fighting hole, maintaining a vigilant defensive posture upon which your sleeping comrades' safety depends. After hours of darkness and only periodic radio checks, you grow sleepy and need to restore your alertness.
Field-tested solution: One may restore alertness by masturbating furiously while on post.
The rub: Masturbating while on post is frowned upon and considered a dereliction of duty. That radio you have been periodically using to check in with the Combat Operations Center (COC) should be kept handy during your revival jerk, but you should be careful not to press the button that transmits audio. If you do accidentally lean on the talk button while jerking, then all your slapping and panting will be transmitted to all the other radios currently being operated on your channel. There will be many. Because you cannot receive transmissions while broadcasting your emissions, nobody can alert you via radio and someone from the COC will have to check post-by-post to find the offending jerk artist. He will be unhappy with you once you meet.
★ ★ ★
Scenario #4
You are in a mine-resistant, ambush-protected vehicle (MRAP) maintaining night-time overwatch of a critical piece of ground and your crew of four is growing bored and tired. You wish to restore your vigilance by masturbating, but do not want to jerk it in a vehicle full of dudes.
Field-tested solution: Everyone jerks; nobody talks.
The rub: If anyone talks, the spell is broken, and in the minds of its passengers the MRAP is transformed into a Castro Street bathhouse, and a gay panic ensues. To avoid inconvenient urges to speak, you may listen to an iPod or other media device. If you do not have one of your own, ask nicely and someone may give you one of his ear buds. It is not recommended that you critique the song choice under any circumstance. Like in commuter slugging, all goodwill depends on your silent acceptance.
★ ★ ★
Scenario #5
You have been doing an awful lot of jerking in the MRAP, and you're curious just how much fluid loss you are experiencing.
Field-tested solution: One may store many days' worth of ejaculate in a Dasani water bottle. These bottles are amazingly crush-resistant and allow easy viewing of your accumulated seed swamp.
The rub: The 115-degree air temperature and the astounding radiant heat absorbed by your little greenhouse bottle cause ghastly curdling and vapor production that is most apparent when climax is imminent and you choose to open the bottle. You and your friends' progress to orgasm is repeatedly thwarted by the rancid fumes of your improperly stored juices.
★ ★ ★
Scenario #6
You have forcibly secured a hostile walled agricultural compound and established a forward fighting position that serves as the living quarters for 200 men. They frequently decide to masturbate and wish to have a relatively private place to do so.
Field-tested solution: One may designate any room or crudely constructed booth as a "jack shack." The most effective procedure for establishing a jack shack is to (1) ensure no other function has been assigned to the space; (2) make a sign that says "jack shack"; (3) make a flippable sign that reads "vacant" on one side and "jerkin' it" on the other; (4) hang the signs; (5) jerk it.
The rub: As you somehow approach orgasm while surrounded by fleas, goat droppings, and untold zillions of camel spiders, and even though the space is clearly labeled and you have turned the sign to the "jerkin' it" setting, some dumbass may still barge in and say, "Oh shit, I didn't know that was serious." A temporary fix for this is to add a quick "no, really" to the "jerkin' it" sign.
★ ★ ★
Scenario #7
During a winter night in a defensive position in Afghanistan, you do not wish to leave the warmth of your sleeping bag to masturbate in the remote, frigid, infested jack shack. Perseverant, you decide to masturbate. Unfortunately, you lack the traditional "happy sock" in which you would normally deposit your ejaculate. Climax is imminent. Where will you deposit your knuckle babies?
Field-tested solution #1: One can remove his polar-fleece beanie hat and use it to catch and isolate his load from his body and bedding.
The rub #1: Laundry is nigh-impossible; it's below freezing everywhere you go; and you're going to want to wear the hat. If you choose the warmth of the beanie, you must choose whether to wear your beanie butter side up or butter side down. Your choice will either publicize your perversion or test the limits of just how dirty your hair can become.
Field-tested solution #2: If one is particularly thin in stature and confident in his muzzle velocity, he may choose to simply jizz into the far distant regions of his sleeping bag and sleep soundly in an isolated zone of the bag that is calculated to be semen-free.
The rub #2: In an infantry unit, everyone is issued a sleeping bag—nearly all of them used. While talking loosely about your new technique, you confirm the blood-curdling fears of everyone else who sleeps in previously issued gear. You will single-handedly crush the morale of your unit for no less than eight days and nights.
★ ★ ★
Scenario #8
You are minding your own business, squatting on your haunches for a quick rest between moving crates of supplies. You have not masturbated very recently, nor do you plan to. Yet upon standing, your flaccid penis erupts with semen, and the new sogginess in your pants is not even accompanied by an orgasm. This also happened the last time you took a nice big shit.
Field-tested solution: One may present to medical with the chief complaint of "when I shit, I nut," and the doctor soon names your condition "defectory ejaculosis."
The rub: To rule out the most likely reason for semen in the toilet in the absence of an orgasm, the doctor must ask about sexual practices. He suspects that your section chief is in fact the love child of a hickory tree and a bulldozer. This will remain an open question until five of your buddies develop the same symptoms and experience immediate, synchronous resolution when you run out of a weightlifting nutritional supplement that you have all been sharing. Your doctor alerts the supplement manufacturer of their potential side effect of unprovoked jizzbombs.
★ ★ ★
Scenario #9
You have worked 200 consecutive 18-hour days without a beer or a hug or real contact with anyone you love. You're sick of it, and routine masturbation has grown stale. You need a new form of stimulation or you're going to flip the fuck out.
Field-tested solution #1: Using simple procedure available on YouTube, one can MacGyver a water bottle, a glove from a first-aid kit, a sock, and a dollop of lube from a corpsman's pack to create a field-expedient pocket pussy.
The rub #1: There you are, standing on one bare foot, stuffing your johnson into a mangled plastic bottle with loose fittings and sharp edges, doing all this under threat of attack and with no real end in sight. It is at this moment that you may gain a poignant disgust for the life choices that led you here. The experience of employing your field-expedient pocket pussy may be more of a downer than you had planned.
Field-tested solution #2: One may choose to locate the comrade who, with great foresight, packed a slick silicon replica of a vulva and vagina—a true store-bought pocket pussy—and respectfully ask to borrow it. Astounding to outsiders, but reasonable to those who have been in the situation, your buddy may permit you to defile his precious.
The rub #2: Your buddy has many buddies, and in a bind up to 12 buddies have been reported to knowingly share one communal pocket pussy. This relationship may suddenly develop an emotional component when one of you falls ill. Whether it was Dengue fever, malaria, or appendicitis that caused your buddy's feverish vomiting and hospitalization, someone will likely tell the group, "Don't worry, it was just real bad syphilis."
In closing, I hope this data may contribute to advances in the field of masturbation that will afford warfighters, missionaries, and scientists alike a higher quality of life when working in austere conditions. Ideally, members of other communities will rally behind this salvo by publishing data gathered from austere workplaces such as forestry preserves, archaeological excavation sites, oil rigs, space stations, and Boy Scout camp. It is only through such military-civilian dialogue that we may disseminate our advances in technique, forged of ingenuity and tempered in sacrifice, in order build a more perfect world.
The pseudonymous Dr. Watts joined the Navy in 2006 during medical school and is still serving with the Marine Corps infantry. He enjoys hunting for residency programs, reading about the Afghanistan force draw-down, stitching hand lacerations, and teaching Marines about their foot rot. His last piece for Deadspin was about blood.

Indianapolis Motogp, Project Mugello and Flat Track 2009
Year Two for the Indygp and the one thing we all knew for sure was the weather had to be better. No hurricane and a years worth of fine tuning turned a good weekend into a great one. Near perfect weather and a new Ducati Island layout was the centerpiece of 5 days of non-stop activity. Parties, rides, and great racing on both asphalt and dirt attracted both racing heroes and regular folk and the resulting mix was memorable. Join us for Ducati Island and Project Mugello weekend at Indy Motogp 2009.......Read More

Lawrence Tech researchers regenerate ligament tissues
January 16, 1971
LTU Assistant Professor Yawen Li wants to utilize tissue engineering to regenerate ligament tissue that could make surgical repairs both less invasive and more effective for people who suffer painful and potentially debilitating anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears in their knees.
Li and her students are using a combination of cells, biomaterial scaffolds, and mechanical and biochemical stimulations to regenerate ligament tissues. During this process, the scaffold – usually made of biodegradable polymers – initially provides mechanical support to the cells, then gradually breaks down until the new tissue that has formed takes over the mechanical load.
The research team is using LTU's state-of-the-art environmental scanning electron microscope – the first of its kind in the Detroit area – to study the mechanical properties and microstructure of different types of nanofiber scaffolds and to conduct biochemical tests to evaluate the interaction of cells with polymeric nanofiber materials.

I have entered and come out of the other side on the grind to level 90. After finally making it through level 89 (dear god, this level was far too long) and hitting 90 I felt relieved to be finished. That is until I went to purchase my ability to fly and was assaulted with all of the quests. Only to learn that in addition to the quests there were more quests, in other places, to partake in. I was immediately overwhelmed and exhausted. I didn't know where to start, what to do, or why the hell there were so many daily quests to begin with.
Yet, as I knew I needed to, I made room in my quest long and started on my way. Opting not to do the mount or the lore walker quests, I had daily quests for the Klaxxi, the Pandas, Cooking and Fishing. I easily obtained the achievement to do 25 daily quests in a single day, and then continued to have more to do. Each day after I hit 90 I spent 90 minutes to two hours taking care of daily quests. I quickly realized that it was going to become a huge burden to complete all of these quests every day once I went back to work and we started raiding again – and I imagine that it's going to also involve me staying up later than I should just to make sure they are completed every day. The fact that it's several hubs of dailys and so many dailys each day only makes it worse.
Every day I dread the daily grind. It is one of the first things I do, because I know that if I don't I will find ways to avoid doing it. It is tedious, it is boring, it is frustrating…and for a progression raider it is required. I hate that rep grinds are tied to it. I hate that Valor Points are tied to it. I hate that I feel obligated to spend time doing things that I generally do not enjoy and make me miserable when I would rather be doing things I find fun (instancing, pet battles, hell – even fishing!). I stated more than once over the past few days that I felt dailys would be the end of WoW for me – I don't enjoy them and there are just so many to be done. It's overwhelming and time consuming and I can't help feeling that Blizzard went overboard with them.
I'm sure the argument that some of you will make is that it is supposed to be an alternate progression path for those who don't raid. And perhaps I'd agree with that…if so much wasn't tied to reputation that you can only gain through those dailys. Crafting patterns, Justice Point Gear (that is almost obsolete by the time you can even buy it and use it), Valor Point Gear. Everything is tied to reputation. And reputation is tied to dailys (and you have to have the reputation to open up even more dailys for different reputation). I hate dailys. I would grind instances until my fingers bleed and enjoy most of it, partly because it's something I already have to do and partly because I enjoy instances, but it's a progression path I mostly enjoy. I don't get that option. Instead I have to go, every day, and do quests. Quests that everyone else is doing, so there is competition for mobs. Quests that I will do 100 times before I'm finished. Quests that offer so little reputation that I dread the length of time I have to suffer through them. Quests that become a chore and make me hate the game for the time I have to spend doing them.
And there are so many of them.
I'm not entirely sure why the decision was made to tie gear and reputation to this method but I have yet to find a single person who has indicated that they are enjoying the current system. Each day I log in and joke that it's time to play "World of Dailycraft" – which is honestly what the game feels like at times. And I don't think it is a good thing for anyone involved. There are so many fun things I'd rather be doing with the new expansion – it's really a shame that all of those things are overshadowed by this aspect of the game. That the time I could be spending enjoying the new instance content or capturing new pets is spent doing something that makes me hate playing.
I'll save the cooking rant for another day.
Maybe if I didn't have a million dailys to do, I could go and enjoy ones for things I might actually enjoy: Lorewalkers or Cloud Serpent. But there isn't enough time in my day for tertiary, fun things like that. All because I have too many "mandatory" dailys. Too many chores to complete before I can go outside and play. For now, let's just suffice it to say that dailys are an unfun experience. They do not enhance my game play. They don't make me think "I can't wait to get home and play!".

FONTAINE DECORATIVEBy Appointment Only
We are an established and experienced French Decorative Antiques dealership based in Herefordshire and later in 2018, we will be opening our new trade store and showroom in Herefordshire.
Clients can currently visit us at our premises in Ledbury, Herefordshire, by appointment.
We are Stuart and Kiel and we are dealers that like to inspire! We have an informal and relaxed approach to antique furnishing and are always happy to discuss projects. We were voted one of the Top Fifty antique shops in Homes and Antiques Magazine in February 2016.
Antiques and collectables expert Mark Hill, also a good friend of ours wrote 'Stuart and Kiel who run Fontaine are veritable alchemists when it comes to display. 'Their innate skill and eye at sourcing objects of beauty and desire are unparalleled, but it's what they do with it that marks them out as truly top-flight dealers and decorators',

French site L'Expansion is reporting that Google has completed a year-long acquisition of the company Flexycore. Flexycore's most prominent product is "droidbooster," an app that claimed to make an Android device run "ten times faster." While that claim might strain the bounds of belief, the company was reputable enough to have a profile on the ARM partner site, and its founder is the former head of R&D for Texas Instruments.
The supposed 10x speed boost came from generating heavily optimized ARM binaries from Android's normal Dalvik code. Droidbooster also claimed to increase battery life, presumably because a sped-up device would spend less time processing and more time in a low-power state. While Flexycore's website is down, its YouTube account still works, which means we can watch a demo!
One thing you'll notice from the video is that it is extremely old. It shows the droidbooster tech running on a Froyo-equipped Nexus One. Indeed, FlexyCore doesn't seem to have done anything on the Internet for the last two years. The company actively promoted its product, releasing 11 videos in a one-year span, and then just stopped. The lack of recent activity makes it unclear if Flexycore has continued development outside the public eye.
The most pressing question is this: does a speed boost that worked in 2010 on Android 2.2 still function today? FlexyCore was obviously working on something significant—Google felt the company was worth purchasing for $23.1 million.
Gigaom reports that it has also received confirmation of the purchase from Google. The company's statement said:
The FlexyCore team has strong expertise in building software to optimize Android device performance, and we think they'd be a great fit with our team.
FlexyCore's employees have already been absorbed into the Android team.

Hurricane insurance costs worry homeowners
Insurance rates have increased sharply since 2003
From Cape Cod to the southern tip of Texas, coastal homeowners are feeling the pinch with rising insurance rates.
Rates have increased sharply since 2003, forcing homeowners to take greater risks by accepting higher deductibles.
The cost of homeowners insurance rose 36 percent from 2003 to 2010. An AP analysis of national insurance figures shows 14 of the 15 states where rates increased by the largest percentages border the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic Ocean.
Insurers said the increases are necessary to offset the risk they take in insuring millions of homeowners in harm's way, but angry customers question how insurers calculate rates and whether state regulators are being too favorable toward the companies.
The Atlantic hurricane season officially starts Saturday and runs through Nov. 30.

ILS officials adjust length of school day
A brutal second half of winter has forced Inland Lakes Schools' officials to adjust the length of the school day for the remainder of the school year.
To this point, ILS has had six full snow days, two half days, and one two-hour delay. All of these closures and delays has landed the district on the wrong side of the 30-hour allotment schools are given for bad weather and other necessary closures.
"We have had numerous snow days and need to make a proactive adjustment to our schedule to compensate," said Fred Osborn, ILS superintendent.
The adjustment will start Monday, when time is tacked on to the end of the elementary school day.
"Currently our elementary students end their day at 2:50, load buses and the buses move to the secondary, which ends at 3:00 and loads those students," explained Osborn. "We will reverse the order, picking up the secondary students first, at 3:00 still, then moving the buses to the elementary to collect those students at 3:10."
This schedule change will provide the district an additional 20 minutes of instructional time per day for 59 days to the elementary, totaling over 19 hours.
Though the elementary school day will be slightly extended for the next few months, secondary students will not be affected.
"Secondary had more time due to the later pickup time compared to elementary," Osborn said. "In addition, secondary does not have recesses, and they are able to count the 5 minute pass time between most classes."
Along with extending the school day, the district is carrying a pocket ace, May 24, which can be used as an instructional day if necessary.
"We put an extra day into the schedule the Friday before Memorial Day," explained Osborn. "We're planning on having school, but if we don't use all of our snow days, we'll announce in early May that we won't be having school that day."

Flora Lichtman, for NPR's Science Friday, wrote a piece last month summarizing recent research on the social brain. We've pasted portions of that piece below, but you can read it all and listen to two related audio clips by clicking here.

What goes through your head when you hear that you have a good reputation or find out that your social status is slipping? Researchers are starting to find out. By examining brain activity through functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), two groups of researchers report how our brains respond to information about reputation and social status in the journal Neuron this week.
Caroline Zink, a neuroscientist from the National Institute of Mental Health, and colleagues developed a simple game in which participants played for money. The participants were competing against themselves only. The researchers told the players, however, that other people happened to be playing the same game simultaneously and then gave the participants information about how well they were doing compared to these other players.

When participants in Zink's study viewed a superior player, regions of the brain associated with social-emotional processing–like the amygdala–were activated. "If you think about it, it makes sense that you wouldn't have the same kind of emotional response if it was a computer," Zink says.
* * *
Researchers also recently mapped the neural response to reputation. "Although we all intuitively know that a good reputation makes us feel good, the idea that good reputation is a reward has long been just an assumption in social sciences, and there has been no scientific proof," says Norihiro Sadato, a researcher at the National Institute for Physiological Sciences in Aichi, Japan and author of another study in Neuron this week.
Sadato and colleagues report that when people are told that they have a good reputation, regions of the brain associated with the reward are activated. A good reputation prompts a similar neural response to a monetary reward. "We found that these seemingly different kinds of rewards (good reputation vs. money) are biologically coded by the same neural structure, the striatum," Sadato writes in an email

For years the struggle to squeeze more battery life out of wireless devices has focused on two fronts: CPU power consumption and battery capacity. Now, changes on a third, vital front may be in the works: the cellular power amplifier.
Cell devices all use a component that translates electricity into radio waves, known as a power amplifier. The biggest problem with power amplifiers is how hideously inefficient they are: about 65-percent of the electricity used to drive one ends up turning into waste heat. This is a big part of the reason your phone starts getting uncomfortably warm when you're watch Netflix or videoconferencing on Skype or FaceTime, and why the battery meter also plummets precipitously around that time.
According to an article at MIT Technology Review, a startup courtesy of two of MIT's electrical engineering professors aims to change all that. Eta Devices has a new technology under development their name for it is "asymmetric multilevel outphasing" which intelligently modulates power through the amplifier and allows less juice to be wasted when switching from standby to transmit mode or vice versa.
Eta's people estimate that the power requirements for a given amplifier could be cut in half this way. What's more, it might also be possible to consolidate the various radios used by a phone into a single chip another power-savings measure, since it means less silicon to power in the first place.
There's an irony in how the race to cut smartphone power consumption has been offset by the very utility of those devices. The more features that appear in each successive generation of phones, the more people use them, and so any attempts to make a smartphone with a battery that lasts more than an average day's use are difficult to achieve. Larger batteries have become standard issue, but that in turn often also means a factory-sealed design (hello, iPhone!) to keep the phone nice and skinny.
Smartphone CPUs have also been built from the inside out with minimal power usage in mind. The Qualcomm Snapdragon S4, for instance, can lower the voltage to each of its four cores, or disable them completely, as demand dictates. But those features have to be balanced against the growing demands of users: the more they grow accustomed to apps that require a multi-core phone, or at least perform better on them, the more likely they are to use them and thus spur further power drainage. (As someone once said: "The more they give you, the more you end up needing.")
Data-plan usage is another culprit, since 4G LTE radios use more power than their predecessors and more power than a Wi-Fi connection. Worse, 4G LTE phones switch between 3G and 4G networks to stay connected to one or the other, meaning the phone's burning even more power by keeping two radios active. (I got a major power-savings boost on my old flip-phone by simply disabling 3G entirely, since I didn't ever use data on it.)
Much of the engineering of smartphone power conservation has been a refinement of the same mechanisms used in notebooks and PCs: dimming the display, ramping down the CPU's clock speed when it's not in use, reducing the system bus speed during idle time, and so on. There's no one magic bullet, but rather a slew of layered innovations that contribute to the phone's overall power savings.
But with the radios themselves, a major source of power drain and the overriding reason to use a smartphone in the first place most of the power-management there has revolved around merely toggling radios off when not in use, not in re-thinking the engineering of the radio hardware.
What will the actual impact be? When will consumers be able to buy this technology? Eta isn't saying just yet.

Firefighters advance containment on Colo. wildfire
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - A Colorado sheriff said firefighters "are getting the upper hand" on the most destructive wildfire in state history Saturday, an announcement that came as authorities gained a clearer picture of the grim landscape the blaze has left behind.
No additional homes were destroyed as fire crews expanded containment lines, El Paso County Sheriff Terry Maketa said. Also, there were no new reports of injury or death, he said.
The fire that exploded Tuesday outside of Colorado Springs, amid record-setting heat and tinder-dry conditions, has destroyed nearly 500 homes and killed two people, whose bodies were found inside their garage Thursday, their car doors open as though they had been about to flee.
On Saturday, worried residents waited for permission to return to their neighborhoods to see whether their homes were still standing.
Maketa said the fire's destruction has made it difficult for his deputies to assess damage.
Deputies have said "it looks like a nuclear bomb went off in some of those areas, and you can't even recognize whether it was a house or some other kind of structure," Maketa said. "That is the level of incineration and destruction that took place in some areas."
Containment is at 45 percent, an increase from 30 percent on Friday. It's unknown what sparked the blaze, but investigators believe it was human-caused. So far, it's cost more than $3.5 million to fight.
Most mandatory evacuation orders have been lifted, as the fire zone remained at 25 square miles.
Some residents have already gotten to see the damage for themselves.
Jack and Judy Roe were able to tour their neighborhood Friday, and saw to their relief that their house had been spared. Several other homes on their block, however, where destroyed.
"Our hearts were breaking for our neighbors," Judy Roe said.
Describing the scene, she said she saw charred piles of what remained of homes, with bricks the only distinguishable feature.
"But other than that, everything is black. The ground, everything is just black," she said.
Some residents were forced to evacuate so quickly they didn't have time to pack an extra change of clothes.
"This is my wardrobe," said Bob Metzger, signaling to his jeans and polo shirt. Metzger and her wife Barbara were among those who lost their house.
The site of the wildfire is only a few miles away from the state's second most destructive wildfire, the Waldo Canyon Fire, which burned last summer.
The lessons from that fire spurred a quicker response, officials said. When the latest wildfire began in Black Forest, a thickly wooded rural region north of Colorado Springs, authorities swiftly evacuated tens of thousands of people from an area larger than the Denver metropolitan area.
White House officials said Saturday that President Barack Obama called Gov. John Hickenlooper on Friday to get an update on conditions and reinforce his commitment to help. The president also expressed his concern for the devastation and gave his condolences to families who have lost relatives.
Elsewhere in Colorado, fire crews worked to contain other smaller wildfires. In Canon City, 50 miles southwest of Black Forest, the Royal Gorge Fire burned 5 square miles and was 65 percent contained. A lightning-sparked fire in Rocky Mountain National Park had burned nearly 500 acres and was 30 percent contained.
Associated Press writer Ivan Moreno contributed to this report from Denver.

The glacial cycles that have dominated the Earth's climate for millions of years are driven by changes in the Earth's orbit, reinforced by greenhouse gasses. But these changes occur over the course of tens of thousands of years, and we only have good global temperature records for the last 1,500 or so. This leaves questions about how the orbital cycles have interacted with shorter-term changes, like volcanic activity and changes in solar activity.
To provide a broader perspective on our climate, a team of researchers has reconstructed its history for the entire Holocene, the period that started with the end of the last ice age. The record shows that the Holocene temperatures largely followed the orbital forcings, peaking over 6,000 years ago and then gradually falling until roughly 1900. That's when the temperatures experienced a sudden reverse, going from among the coldest of the entire period to the warmest in less than a century.
The Earth's orbit and axis undergo cyclical changes, called Milankovitch cycles after the astronomer who first recognized them. These cycles cause changes to the amount and distribution of sunlight that strikes the Earth, changes that can raise or lower the average temperature of the planet. The result is what's called an "orbital forcing," which can drive long-term climate changes.
In recent history, orbital forcings have controlled the entry and exit to glacial periods. Although the amount of energy from the forcing itself is relatively small, it sets off a variety of feedbacks. Retreating ice sheets give way to open water and vegetation, which can absorb more sunlight and allow carbon dioxide to escape the deep ocean, ultimately causing a rise in greenhouse gasses. As the heating from orbital forcings slowly declines, these processes begin to reverse themselves. A recent study indicates that we were only about 1,500 years away from the onset of the next glacial period.
Coring into the past
But those are just the rough outlines of what happens. Within both glacial and interglacial periods, there are changes in volcanic activity, aerosols, and ocean currents that can alter the timing and extent of any temperature changes. To better understand our current interglacial period and whether recent temperature changes are truly anomalous, it would be helpful to have a complete picture of what the globe's been up to. That's precisely what the authors have done, using dozens of records spread around the globe that record the temperature history for thousands of years.
All told, the authors had access to 73 proxy records of temperature, mostly from marine sediment cores, each of which spanned at least 6,500 years of the Holocene. These provided records of temperature through things like isotope ratios and pollen records. The authors combined them to create a single global temperature record that spans roughly 12,000 years and thus extends back to the warming that ended the last ice age. Because of the resolution of things like sediment and ice cores, short-term variability of less than 300 years can't be resolved with this data, but the authors show that it seems to capture trends spanning 2,000 years and more very well.
That effectively means all the sorts of short-term events that have the impacts we're most familiar with—volcanic eruptions, changes in ocean currents, etc.—are averaged out. What remains is primarily the influence of the orbital changes.
The results make a number of things clear. To begin with, they overlap all the reconstructions of the last 1,500 years, at least within experimental error. These climate reconstructions, commonly known for showing a hockey stick pattern of temperature change (and most closely associated with the work of climatologist Michael Mann), have been the subject of a lot of controversy. But the new record joins a lot of other work indicating that a hockey stick pattern—with a sudden upswing of temperatures in the last century or so—is simply a feature of our planet's history. This won't make the controversy go away overnight, but it has become increasingly clear that there are more important things to talk about.
Another very obvious thing in the record is that our planet has (up until recently) been in a 5,000-year-old cooling trend. You will sometimes see people arguing that we've been warming since the end of the last ice age, but this simply isn't an accurate depiction of the data. Orbital forcings and temperatures did rise sharply at the end of the ice age, but they then remained relatively stable for about 5,000 years at about 0.6°C above the temperature of the last 1,500 years. Orbital forcings would have peaked about 9,000 years ago, and temperatures seem to have had a small peak about seven thousand years ago. But a steady decline started about 5,000 years ago, and it accelerated within the last thousand years, with a sharper drop associated with the period we call the Little Ice age. As a whole, this decline took the Earth down by about 0.7°C, dropping it below the average temperature of the last 1,500 years.
But within those gradual changes, there are some dramatic regional differences. By the same measure, the North Atlantic dropped roughly 2°C during the decline, suggesting it was especially sensitive to the decline in orbital forcings. Given that many of our historic accounts of the climate are biased towards the same region, this may give us a bit of a stronger reason to focus less on history and more on generating a truly global picture through the sort of temperature proxies that are used here.
A sudden reversal
The picture up to 1900 is consistent with the estimates that the best of the Holocene was behind us and we were cooling towards an inevitable re-glaciation. The authors calculate that the decade from 1900-1910 was cooler than more than 95 percent of all the other decades in the Holocene. But things pretty much ended there. As in the hockey stick reconstructions of the recent climate, this one shows a dramatic upswing in the century just past.
Although the most recent decade (2000-2009) isn't the warmest of the Holocene, it's not too far off. The authors estimate that it was warmer than 82 percent of the decades of the last 12,000 years. "Global temperature, therefore, has risen from near the coldest to the warmest levels of the Holocene within the past century, reversing the long-term cooling trend," the authors conclude. And based on records of things like solar output, ocean currents, and volcanic eruptions, there's little indication of anything other than greenhouse gasses that could have caused this sort of reversal.
Given the greenhouse emissions we've already produced, the authors also conclude that we're certain to exceed the warmest decades of the past sometime this century. The only scenario that would keep us from doing so is if we froze emissions around a decade ago. The real question seems to be how much we'll exceed these temperatures by. Continuing along an emissions trajectory similar to the one we're currently on, they suggest, means "by 2100, global average temperatures will probably be five to 12 standard deviations above the Holocene temperature mean."
In other words, it will be dramatically warmer than any point of the entire 12,000 year interglacial period, and no amount of statistical noise could account for the difference.

Over the Counter: Tips for preventing hair loss
Boston-born musician James Taylor is known for such soft-rock hits as "You've Got a Friend" and "Fire and Rain." As he's aged, on stage in front of millions of fans, the singer-songwriter also has become distinguishable by his receding hairline.
"I collect hats. That's what you do when you're bald," Taylor once quipped about his androgenic alopecia, also known as male pattern baldness.
But, besides investing in fedora futures, there are a variety of health-care solutions that can help head off hair loss. Options range from prescription drugs designed to stimulate re-growth, to natural supplements that have been found to be effective at preventing hair loss.
First, a few basics about hair, how it grows and why it starts falling out. Hair has two parts, the follicle that extends down into the skin and the shaft, which is visible above the scalp. We are actually born with all of the follicles we will ever have, or about 5 million across the entire body, including about 1 million on the head.
We never generate new hair follicles as we age and grow. The hair shaft is made of a protein, in part, that is not a living structure. That's why we can go to the barber and not feel a thing when he cuts our hair. Other parts of the shaft contain pigment, giving hair its color. The hair on our head grows about 6 inches per year, on average, according to the American Hair Loss Association, going through three phases of growth, eventually shedding the shaft and restarting from within the same follicle.
Genetics play a major role in male pattern baldness, the most common type of hair loss. The condition affects up to 70 percent of men at some point in their lifetime. About 40 percent of women experience similar thinning over their scalps; however, total hair loss in women is rare.
In the case of genetic hair loss, a hormone called dihydrotestosterone attacks the hair follicles on the head, causing them to shrink until they are no longer able to produce hair. DHT is a derivative of the male hormone testosterone that's produced through a metabolic process in the body, specifically within the oil glands of hair follicles.
Finasteride, better known by its brand name Propecia, is one of the most common prescription medications for treating male pattern hair loss. The drug blocks the enzyme that creates DHT. While effective, finasteride has serious side effects ranging from erectile dysfunction to prostate cancer. Another common hair-loss treatment is minoxidil, or Rogaine, now available over the counter. Rogaine is purported to stop hair loss and promote re-growth, and can be used for long periods of time. While common side effects include itching, redness and irritation, a compounded version of minoxidil can reduce some of the irritation.
For people with the type of hair loss that comes with age there are many natural options for preventing hair loss. Taking a daily dose of fish oil or regularly consuming foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon, walnuts and flaxseeds, may help encourage hair growth, according to the University of Maryland Medical Center.
Many people use biotin, a vitamin found in certain foods and also available as a supplement, for various health benefits - including preventing hair loss. Biotin may improve the protein infrastructure in the hair shaft.
Other nutrients that may be beneficial to hair include herbal supplements that contain turmeric (of the ginger family), milk thistle, and nettle leaf. These herbs help the body clean up metabolic waste and ensure proper liver function. Vegetable silica, an extract from the horsetail plant, is another natural treatment for healthy hair. Another plant extract, saw palmetto, has shown promise as a DHT inhibitor in research related to hair loss. A 2009 study by Korean scientists found increased hair growth in balding men who took regular doses of pumpkin seed oil.
Many people with significant hair loss learn to live with it, and are more than fine with their appearance. Others will seek a treatment, with the assistance of their health-care provider, that helps prevent what may be inevitable. That may be a prescription medication, or a natural remedy with fewer side effects.
Maintaining an overall healthy lifestyle, including reducing stress levels to keep the body's metabolic processes on the right track, may also slow hair loss.
Rather than wait for nature to take its course, take steps now to consider your options and give your hairline a fighting chance.

Thousands march for gun control in Washington
Thousands of people, many holding signs with names of gun violence victims and messages such as "Ban Assault Weapons Now," joined a rally for gun control on Saturday, marching from the Capitol to the Washington Monument.
Leading the crowd were marchers with "We Are Sandy Hook" signs, paying tribute to victims of the December school shooting in Newtown, Conn. Washington Mayor Vincent Gray and other city officials marched alongside them. The crowd stretched for at least two blocks along Constitution Avenue.
Participants held signs reading "Gun Control Now," ''Stop NRA" and "What Would Jesus Pack?" among other messages. Other signs were simple and white, with the names of victims of gun violence.
About 100 residents from Newtown, where a gunman killed 20 first-graders and six teachers, traveled to Washington together, organizers said.
Participant Kara Baekey from nearby Norwalk, Conn., said that when she heard about the Newtown shooting, she immediately thought of her two young children. She said she decided she must take action, and that's why she traveled to Washington for the march.
"I wanted to make sure this never happens at my kids' school or any other school," Baekey said. "It just can't happen again."
Once the crowd arrived at the monument, speakers called for a ban on military-style assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition and for universal background checks on gun sales.
Education Secretary Arne Duncan told the crowd it's not about taking away Second Amendment gun rights, but about gun safety and saving lives. He said he and President Barack Obama would do everything they could to enact gun control policies.
"This is about trying to create a climate in which our children can grow up free of fear," Duncan said. "This march is a starting point; it is not an ending point ... We must act, we must act, we must act."
Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton, D.C.'s non-voting representative in Congress, said the gun lobby can be stopped, and the crowd chanted back, "Yes, we can."
"We are all culpable if we do nothing now," Norton said
James Agenbroad, 78, of Garrett Park, Md., carried a handwritten sign on cardboard that read "Repeal the 2nd Amendment." He called it the only way to stop mass killings because he thinks the Supreme Court will strike down any other restrictions on guns.
"You can repeal it," he said. "We repealed prohibition."
Molly Smith, the artistic director of Washington's Arena Stage, and her partner organized the march. Organizers said that in addition to the 100 people from Newtown, buses of participants traveled from New Jersey, New York and Philadelphia. Others flew in from Seattle, San Francisco and Alaska, they said.
While she's never organized a political march before, Smith said she was compelled to press for a change in the law. The march organizers support Obama's call for gun control measures. They also want lawmakers to require gun safety training for all buyers of firearms.
"With the drum roll, the consistency of the mass murders and the shock of it, it is always something that is moving and devastating to me. And then, it's as if I move on," Smith said. "And in this moment, I can't move on. I can't move on.
"I think it's because it was children, babies," she said. "I was horrified by it."
After the Connecticut shootings, Smith began organizing on Facebook. The group One Million Moms for Gun Control, the Washington National Cathedral and two other churches eventually signed on to co-sponsor the march. Organizers have raised more than $50,000 online to pay for equipment and fees to stage the rally, Smith said.
Lawmakers from the District of Columbia and Maryland rallied the crowd, along with Marian Wright Edelman of the Children's Defense Fund and Colin Goddard, a survivor from the Virginia Tech massacre.
Goddard said he was shot four times at Virginia Tech and is motivated to keep fighting for gun control because what happened to him keeps happening — and nothing's been done to stop it.
"We are Americans," he said, drawing big cheers. "We have overcome difficulties when we realize we are better than this."
Smith said she supports a comprehensive look at mental health and violence in video games and films. But she said the mass killings at Virginia Tech and Aurora, Colo., and Newtown, Conn., all began with guns.
"The issue is guns. The Second Amendment gives us the right to own guns, but it's not the right to own any gun," she said. "These are assault weapons, made for killing people."

Hillary Adams talks to Anderson Cooper about the abuse she suffered at the hands of her father, and why she recorded a beating seven years ago.
I think CNN is missing a bigger story than child abuse on this guy. Think about it, if this "judge" is treating his own daughter in this manner think about all the kids he legally may have abused in his court. Family court judges are in the "wild west" of the legal system which is largely unregulated. In the past year we saw one such judge in Pennsylvania convicted of imprisoning kids for money. In my area there was a sitting judge convicted with another man in a case of child porn. The judge got a year sentence and the other criminal was sentence to 10 years. (Sounds fair?) The system protects its own which is why reputation protectors actively seek out web sites of victims telling there stories. Ever wondered why you never hear of a consumer feedback web sites on lawyers & judges? This judge is a child abuser but more likely a he suffers from a god complex because he's been above the law most of his life. Legal abuse is a real PTSD situation.
I agree this is child abuse but, I think CNN is missing a larger story. This judge had no problem treating his own daughter this way then how do you think he treats the kids in his courtroom? The family court system is the "wild west" of the legal world. Mostly unregulated because with the victims under age thus no voice against the abuser. There are web blog sites which fight to be seen but are beaten down by "reputation software". Search out courthouse fourm, NCP force, others. We just had two locals sentenced for child porn – a sitting family judge – one year, the other just a common criminal – 15 years...... (Don't forget the story of the Pennsylvania family judge who was caught marketing kids to a private run facility) Lots of stuff on this subject rarely covered in the media as a whole
If WAR CRIMES can be prosecuted many, many years later with NO statute of limitation, Why are Child Abusers not prosecuted ? Why are CLEARLY ABUSIVE Parents of underage children not prosecuted in America? Why does our govenment allow this to go unchecked once it becomes to light? Why are the 'least of these' (children) allowed NO VOICE after 5-7 years of the incident? This child is just ONE of many, many people who grow up in American homes, one of many who learn that 'it's OK to beat children." Why does American prosecuted WAR CRIMES and not CHILD ABUSERS? Abused hildren are kept silent in family structures where the abuser rules. Once a child has the courage to come forward as Hillary has, the Father, the Mother – the abusers ought to be made to account for their sins against their children.....AND...wasn't there another child in that house? Was this one beat as well?
If CRIMES against HUMANITY are prosecutable, is this child, less a part of humanity? Shouldn't those who WHIPPED this child be held accountable? Image if a man, 3-4 times the size of the Father, came at the Father with a belt and started WHIPPING the Father...imagine....the force of that strike. We, America, went to war to overcome the violance that Sadam and other tyrants did to their people...but here, in America, these things can't be prosected within the family structure if a period of 5-7 years have passed. Why then, are the participants who abused the Jewish people during the war, being hunted down after so many years? Don't American Children deserve just as much justice?
What a show this evening! Parents verbally abusing their children about the Halloween candy and a father beating his teenage daughter. Verbal abuse can be just as damaging to children as physical abuse. Bullies bully because they are being bullied at home. Parents – treat your children decently and then you will have decent adult children when they grow up.
The father's behavior is barbaric. I'm not sure where I heard the mother's apology but that seemed to be more about her getting sympathy than facing her mistake and being concerned about her daughter. Our society seems so self involved. Where is the heartbreak for the pain her daughter endured. We live in a culture that needs to blame someone else for their behavior and it's a lie.
I am so grateful to Hillary Adams for having the courage to confront this trauma. Nothing but good will come from this. I am so sorry that she had to endure this torture, both physical and emotional, but now the scars will really be able to be healed. Thank you, Hillary, for giving a voice to all the children of the world–yes, this has been reported, now, in many of the world's papers.
To hear this girl screaming is one of the worse things ever. I mean only in a very twisted mind this torture could mean discipline this is torture. There is a a huge difference between discipline and torture. I'm speechless. I'm so sorry for the pain she went trough I hope that she can heal her soul and heart. And the judge what the hell is she talking about when she says that parents have the right to punish their children ???? NOBODY
NOBODY has the right to do this not even to a pet.
No where does this man take ownership of his behavior. I don't care what her motive was for posting the video, the fact is that the video shows outright physical and verbal abuse of a child. The world is sick and tired of watching authorities in power abuse it and this is prime example of such a thing! I am disgusted by his response!
I hate that the judge is not admitting any guilt in this situation. It would be a shame for a family judge to give people the impression it is ok to beat your kid for any reason. Shame on him. He should retire.
The statue of limitations is different for each sate and each offense, this crime should be investigated and charged if possible, according to a breif search I find that depending on the injuries formal charges are possible...ie ten years from the 18th birthday of the victim of the offense: injury to a child under Section 22.04
Clearly it was wrong what this guy did and there's no excuse but the motives behind this are sketchy. It's really shady that the mother and the daughter are both going after him when she was abused by both. If the mother was the judge would it be the daughter and father ganging up on the mother?
Hilliary Adams has cerebral palsy and considered to be a disabled person. In many states, a disabled person (regardless of whether the disability is from injury, developmental or DSMIV) is considered to be a vulnerable person just as an elderly person is vulnerable. There is no excuse for her father's conduct in this video. I watched the entire video earlier today and can understand why the video went viral on the internet. Our children are not our property and chattel.
Attorneys and judges must pass the Multi-state Professional Responsibility Exam – this guy needs to make amends to his disabled daughter and make things right. His conduct is not professionally responsible, even if it happened in their home. This man has to be held accountable for his wrongful actions towards his disabled daughter. There is no excuse for his violence and no excuse for the profanity he yelled at her in the video. No excuse, no justification.
We cannot tolerate violence in our society, we cannot.
I understand that the statue of limitations on this horrible behavior is 5 years. However, for a minor I believe that begins at time a majority (18 years old). So if the victim is 23 or younger, "daddy dearest" can still be charged.

Move over Mac Defender—there's a new malware variant in town, and it doesn't require the administrator password for installation. Security research firm Intego issued a new warning to Mac users on Wednesday, heavily cautioning users that a new variant on Mac Defender, called Mac Guard, is making the rounds via SEO poisoning online.
Intego initially warned users about a fake antivirus program called MAC Defender (it has since gone through several name and capitalization changes) earlier this month. The Mac-like app posed as an antivirus program and asked users for their credit card numbers in order to purge viruses on their machines or protect them from new ones. Although Intego initially gave Mac Defender a low risk rating because of its admin password requirement, it soon became apparent that Mac Defender was indeed beginning to make the rounds among the Mac-using community. We spoke with a number of third-party support reps, as well as several Apple Store Geniuses, who vouched for an apparent increase in Mac Defender malware reports.
When we spoke with Intego spokesperson Peter James last week, he pointed out that he initially saw a new Mac Defender variant every 12 to 24 hours, but eventually stopped seeing new versions. He warned that the creators could be revamping the malware to stay under the radar of legit antivirus software or to find new ways to poison users' machines. Now with the availability of Mac Guard, that indeed seems to be the case.
"Unlike the previous variants of this fake antivirus, no administrator's password is required to install this program. Since any user can install software in the Applications folder, a password is not needed," Intego wrote on its blog. "This package installs an application—the downloader—named avRunner, which then launches automatically. At the same time, the installation package deletes itself from the user's Mac, so no traces of the original installer are left behind."
Once again, the company advises users to turn off "Open 'safe' files after downloading" in their Safari preferences, since this malware (and others like it) are making their way onto users' computers via maliciously crafted URLs.
Apple itself acknowledged Mac Defender yesterday in a support document. The company promised to issue a software update that would automatically remove the malware and its variants, but also listed out instructions for how to remove it. We can only assume (or hope, at least) that Apple will include Mac Guard when it gets around to issuing that update, but in the meantime, Intego also offers its own VirusBarrier X6 tool to help remove it.

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

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 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. Oral surgery is often performed in a dental office setting, under local anesthesia, with minimal recovery time. Oral Surgery can range from routine procedures such as tooth extractions and implant placement to more complex jaw realignment surgeries and emergency care for facial trauma.
Oral Surgery Procedures
Oral surgery procedures may be performed to relieve pain, treat an infection or trauma, restore function or improve a person's appearance. Procedures and conditions treated include:
- Tooth Extractions. There are a variety of reasons why you may need a tooth or teeth removed. You may have a wisdom tooth that is impacted; a diseased tooth that can't be saved; or overcrowded teeth that need to be removed so more room can be created to facilitate proper alignment during orthodontics.
- Dental Implants. Today's preferred method of tooth replacement is a titanium dental implant, which is placed beneath the gum line and into the jawbone during a minor surgical procedure. The implant is then attached to a realistic-looking dental crown that is visible above the gum line and indistinguishable from a natural tooth.
- Oral Diagnosis & Biopsies. When a suspicious oral lesion is found, a biopsy is often used to detect or rule out oral cancer — a disease that is treatable if caught early. A biopsy involves removing a very small tissue sample for laboratory analysis.
- Corrective Jaw Surgery. Sometimes a person's jaws don't fit together properly. This can affect both jaw function and appearance.
- Snoring & Sleep Apnea. Excess tissue in the back of the throat may need to be removed in certain individuals with sleep apnea.
- TMD. When conservative remedies fail to relieve chronic jaw pain over a long period of time, surgery may be considered.
- Facial Trauma & Reconstructive Surgery. Facial injuries can affect not only a person's ability to carry on basic life functions such as eating, but also his or her appearance. Knocked-out teeth can sometimes be re-implanted, or replaced with dental implants.
- Cleft Lip/Palate. These birth defects are among the most common, estimated to affect around one in 700-800 babies born in North America. With proper surgical treatment, the child has an excellent chance of leading a healthy, normal life.
What to expect
Before your oral surgery is performed, x-rays will often be taken to aid in diagnosis and treatment planning. A step-by-step explanation of the procedure along with your anesthesia options will be discussed, and you should feel free to ask any questions you have. Your recovery experience will depend on what procedure you are having as well as your general state of health. It's always important to let your healthcare providers know what medications you are taking (both prescription and over-the-counter), any chronic health conditions you have, and whether you smoke. This will help ensure your safety and comfort — always the paramount concerns.
