Just when we thought we knew what to expect from Fed policy, along comes Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia President Charles Plosser to shake things up, cause stocks, which were just starting to get things going, to give back their gains. Big losers today include Peabody Energy (BTU), Cliffs Natural Resources (CLF) and Exelon (EXC).
The Wall Street Journal's Michal Derby has the details on Plosser's remarks:
The Federal Reserve is facing daunting challenges when it comes to eventually ending its current easy money stance, and it might have to raise short-term rates faster than many expect, warned Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia President Charles Plosser.
While he didn't say the central bank is on the edge of needing to raise rates off of their current rock-bottom levels, the official fretted the Fed confronts a wide range of uncertainties about how that process will play out. Mr. Plosser has been a long-term skeptic of the Fed's bond-buying stimulus efforts, and he's been uncomfortable with the duration of very low short-term rates.
Oh. And Plosser will also be a voting member on the FOMC this year.
Investors entered this year expecting a slow taper, one that would reduce liquidity in the financial system but not enough to dent the economy. But that view ultimately depends on growth picking up a little but not growing too hot or too cold. It's Goldilocks as the prisoner's dilemma.
The S&P 500 is little changed at 1,831.50 at 2:07 p.m. after being up as much as 0.2%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average has ticked up 0.1% to 16,455.54. Among the biggest losers: Coal miner Peabody Energy, which has fallen 4.1% to $18.73, iron miner Cliffs Natural Resources, which is off 3.2% at $25, General Motors (GM), which has fallen 3.4% to $39.58 after reporting horrendous sales today, and Exelon, which has declined 2.3% to $26.54 after it was downgraded by Citigroup.
So much for a happy New Year.

Elgar's cantata has neither Verdi's ferocious drama nor Stravinsky's hieratic purity, though it whispers of both. It's focused more on an individual's suffering and redemption. Newman was an Anglican theologian who controversially converted to Catholicism in 1845, a time in England when Roman Catholics were still persecuted. He wrote his long poem 20 years later, and it was an important work for the Catholic Elgar.
"Fervent" perhaps best describes the music. There isn't a moment that doesn't sound sincere or like an apt musical counterpart to Newman's plush Victorian diction ("before the Throne/Stands the great Angel of the Agony,/The same who strengthened Him, what time He knelt/Lone in the garden shade bedewed with blood"). Without rushing, Sir Colin kept the music rolling forward in great, rich, melodic waves, each new climax bigger — and more fervent — than the last, yet never syrupy, and by the end quite moving.
The long Part II post-mortem is more full of incident than the long Part I, which is devoted to the passing away of Gerontius. Tenor Ben Heppner sang firmly despite occasional rough spots, but with rather undifferentiated fervor in expressing his eagerness to have shuffled off his mortal coil, his amazement that his mortal fear has dissolved, his repugnance at the demons eager to drag to Hell the newly departed spirits.
As Gerontius's guiding angel, British mezzo-soprano Sarah Connolly sang with a kind of rapturous restraint and a vivid, almost conversational but warm-toned projection of Newman's consoling words. Canadian bass-baritone Gerald Finley, both Priest and Angel of the Agony, had a ringing voice, precise articulation, and, yes, fervor. The orchestra played with full-throated ease, and John Oliver's Tanglewood Festival Chorus outdid itself, singing — from memory, as usual — the Priest's "Assistants," echoes of Gerontius's mourners, dread demons, and celestial choirs
BMOP has become so popular, you have to look hard in the program to find its full name: Boston Modern Orchestra Project. Founder Gil Rose and his outstanding ensemble celebrated their 10th season at the New England Conservatory on Friday with their annual concert devoted to Boston composers. An enthusiastic and diverse audience (diverse especially in age) cheered, whistled, and hooted its approval for pieces, including two world premieres, by five composers also diverse in age. All the pieces were lively and (unlike Gerontius) fun.

Sakuraba Injured at Dynamite
- Written by Dave Walsh
I'm sure I'm not the only one here who holds Kazushi Sakuraba in high esteem. One of my absolute favorite MMA fighters of all time, Saku is rightly hailed as the God of Japanese MMA. But tonight was yet another hard to watch loss for the legend.
Facing Dream champion Marius Zaromskis, Sakuraba suffered an early ear injury that brought the fight to a close before it could get going. The owner of one of the worst cauliflowered ears in all of MMA (and that covers a lot of ground), Sakuraba took a quick shot that popped the ear, causing it to bleed. A few minutes later, he took another blow and immediately recoiled, holding his hand to his ear. Doctors stepped in, and it looked like Sakuraba's ear had been partially torn away from his skull, resulting in a much needed stoppage. The stoppage was reminiscent of Kimbo Slice v. James Thompson on CBS, but unlike the Kimbo fight, we thankfully did not get any graphic footage of Sakuraba's ear.
Overall, it was a fight that didn't say much about Zarmoskis, and once again demonstarted that Sakuraba's time is done. He's had a lot of loses recently, and sadly has looked old in those loses. The lasting image of him here, with his hand covering his bloody ear, is not the way anyone wants to keep seeing this legend.

Archdiocese of Chicago
Prepared by the Life Committee of the Archdiocesan Pastoral Council -
Rita Kattner, Executive Director, Office for Councils
The Archdiocesan Pastoral Council (APC) recently held a discussion with Cardinal George on the first of four issues the Cardinal suggested they focus on this year. This discussion centered on the question: "What are specific things parishes can do to help people recognize that attending Sunday Mass will make a difference in their lives?" This issue was prompted by the upcoming Year of the Sunday Mass (beginning July 1, 2012), which is a part of the Archdiocese of Chicago's Strategic Pastoral Plan. Fifty delegates to the APC, representing parishes across the entire Archdiocese, participated in this discussion with the Cardinal.
Based on feedback collected from parishes across the Archdiocese, three recommended areas of priority emerged from APC delegates' presentations to the Cardinal. These included: increased activities to welcome people to participate in Sunday Mass; efforts to teach and catechize participants about this occasion of worship; and the use of testimonies to encourage participation in Sunday Mass but also to ensure that homilies are relevant and impactful for Mass attendees.
Many specific examples were offered. Ideas regarding welcoming included greater formal and personal invitations by clergy and Parish Pastoral Council members to encourage community members to attend the Sunday Mass; inviting area parishes to celebrate Masses together at different times of the year; ensuring that greeters and ushers welcome all (old, young, teens) people to church, including the use of handouts and brochures; and viewing special occasions, such as special Masses, Baptisms, Weddings, and Funerals, as opportunities to encourage regular Sunday Mass attendance.
Several areas of teaching and catechesis were recommended that would help build Sunday Mass participation. These included efforts to recover a sense of reverence and habit; silent times at the beginning and end of Mass to allow attendees to reflect on how they will connect their worship experience to their daily lives; and teaching young people both the sense of obligation and spirit of celebration of the Sunday Mass. Feedback also indicated an interest in presiders taking time to explain the Mass parts so that attendees gain a better understanding of the Sunday Mass.
Feedback indicated interest in the use of testimonies on the part of people of faith as methods to explain to others the ways in which the Sunday Mass has personal impact. These witnesses might be powerful models for worshippers, and the Archdiocese might consider how to facilitate face-to-face sharing of life stories. Additionally, as homilies are such a potentially meaningful element of the Sunday Mass, they should reflect on current affairs and be relevant to the lives of worshippers. One specific suggestion was that priests and deacons reach out to members of the parish in small groups to obtain ideas or feedback on homilies. Another suggestion was for parishes with multiple presiders to have one presider preach all homilies each weekend to ensure that proper focus on preparation occurs and to facilitate the consistency of the message delivered to attendees at all weekend Masses.
In his remarks, the Cardinal talked about the importance of Sunday Mass and the necessity of holding in tension both the desire for a great celebration and the necessity of going to Mass, no matter what we feel. He said that the relationship with God withers if we do not worship and suggested that there was a danger that God might abandon us if we abandon Him. The Cardinal acknowledged that this is hard to get across in a secularized culture. However, our lives as Catholics depend on entering into Jesus' self-sacrifice in the Eucharist, so that we might sacrifice for others in the world. In the long run, this worship makes a difference.
Tuesday, January 10, 2012 3:13 PM
These are all excellent suggestions for increased attendance and worship. Too often among my generation (I'm 30), many feel that they can pick and choose what teachings they wish to follow based on nothing more than their feelings. As one of my very favorite priests at St. Andrew's in Calumet City said, "Faith and feelings are NOT the same thing." Too often, regular Mass attendance is met with "I'm a good person, so I don't need to go." Or, "I worship God in my own way." That false notion needs to get out to these Catholics so they realize they are obligated to go. So many Catholic parishes have multiple masses on the weekends, so there's no excuse!

Thread: low light tank, will it work
low light tank, will it work
I want "hopefully" an idiot proof low light tank, I have a 150XH I set up for lots of tetras, guppies and rainbow fish. OK I have a giant piece of drift wood I want to attach some java, sword plant and different Anubis too. I have a Finnix Fuge Ray 7000k Led light, now I know this fixture probably wont penetrate the 30-36'' depth of my tank but my driftwood has juts from 14-17 in up the water Colum that I plant to attach to. Also this is the tank I keep my massive Royal, his body width is about 2x dollar bills laying side by side. will he mess my plants up or eat them. All in all I just wanna keep some easy plants alive, they don't have to grow leaps and bonds, just live. Does this setup sound ok.

It's one of those things you may just have to try out. Hard to know how much light and what wavelength the LEDs are putting out. I had surprisingly good luck growing plants using some generic LED lights. Don't be tempted to leave your lights on for longer than about 8 hours/day, because some algae will certainly do well with minimal light if the photoperiod is too long.
Plecos, from BN to the commons, can potentially cause problems with plants. The sword plant probably will be a salad eventually! Anubias are usually ok with plecos.
yea most plants I want say between 5-7000k, I will probably do a timer, suck on pleco, guess I could move it to my big tank but not sure how the 14 in bichirs will handle new blood in there tank :(

The "brightness" in terms of how lighted to have your tank, depends on if you use CO2 or not. Without CO2, you don't want to exceed what's considered "low-medium" light. Lighting intensity, for a planted tank, is usually measured in PAR (Photosynthetically Active Radiation). Don't worry if you don't happen to have a PAR meter, you can estimate lighting. If you start seeing the dreaded BBA (Black Brush Algae/Black Beard Algae), you most likely have too much light intensity. If you use CO2 or "Flourish Excel", you can elevate the intensity, how much depends on the CO2 level in the tank and other factors, such as nutrients and light duration. Read below for more details...
4) I'm confused by the terms "Kelvin (K)", "CRI", and "Lumens", aren't they the same thing?
Answer: The short answer, is no! Let me explain in more detail.
Kelvin - This is the "color temperature" of the light, essentially the spectrum of light (Visualize a rainbow's colors = different wavelengths found in visible light). The higher the Kelvin of a light, the more "bluish", the lower the Kelvin, the more "Reddish". Kelvin has nothing to do with the light's intensity, in terms of the plant, but it does relate to the spectrum of light a plant can use best for photosynthesis! A Kelvin range of 5000K - 7000K works well for a planted tank.
CRI - "color rendering index", I don't see this term much, but it indicates how closely the bulb matches the natural light of the sun. The sun has a CRI of 100, bulbs with a CRI above 85 are reported to be ok to use. I don't have any personal experience with the CRI ratings.
Lumens - Very important! Lumens refers to the intensity or brightness of the light. Ok, for you physics folks, I know that's not actually the same as the "power" measurement of a light. Lumens refers to the brightness of a light as perceived by the human eye. So, we can use it as a measure of a light's brightness. The higher the lumen rating, the "brighter" the light. Usually the lumens is going to relate to the wattage of a light. The higher the light's wattage, the higher the lumens.
If you want to read my complete post (on a local non-profit club forum, MODS - if this is not allowed, please delete this paragraph and link!) regarding lighting and the planted tank, you are welcome to follow this link:
Ive never had an issue with bn pleco and my plants. If you offer it enough food it wont need to eat the leaves of live plants. Plenty of plants will work in low light, but some people have better luck doing co2 and ferts with the low light.KING OF THE GOLD BARBS RAWR!!!!
I wonder if i plant one of my tiger barbs would the demon seed grow to a full tree?
gotta love them bunnies!
I.R.S.: We've got what it takes to take what you've got!

If this is a low light tank, I would omit the sword plant. Swords should be planted anyway. It's not one of those you attach to wood.
actually is a 1000k tank and yea I get the par somewhat, lol I was just told what kelvin would be good for low light plants. I was also given some florish liquid, not sure If that is even needed. sucks on the sword I had a fellow plant keeper giving me his 15 in tall one due to it growing out of tank. is c02 something easy to do or a constant thing, back to the bat cave for research
ps it is a Finnex ray 2 light

That's half true. The intent is to support children in poverty. There is an encouragement to engage in family planning. But no one wants the government to forcefully tie them down to a gurney and get the left gonad removed.
Certainly, there are things the system does to lock in recipients. The reforms passed when Clinton was president with republican support has done a lot to reduce long termers. Life time limits have worked well in that regard.
One of the things that really works in getting people of the dole is an aggressive program to train people in getting job finding skills. I am not talking trade or college education. But how to dress, how to write a resume, how to present yourself. Sign up before you see the financial worker. Doesn't matter how many kids you have at home. Show up everyday at the job center for four hours until you get a job. If I had it my way i'd make it 8 hrs.
In Detroit's case, the only thing that seems to have any effect is a aggressive law enforcement. But that ping- pongs back and force as people raise hob about taxes an budgets.
In the 60's Johaness Spreen, Chief of Police, put out a team of officers disguised as drunks, women and old ladies. When these guys were jumped the officer and his backup attempted to make an arrest. Enough of the criminals fled the officers and were shot. The crime rate plummeted during the program. Then a 14 year old kid was shot in the back one night. The courts ordered a halt to the program.

Steve Sansweet dropped a tease at C2E2 that there may yet be one more Star Wars animated series coming soon to a galaxy near you. This time taking place after Return of the Jedi. Ain't It Cool News has the full news. But here's the various comments from Steve Sansweet from the possible upcoming animated series. Man, I hope this is true!
From IGN:
From Best Of Luck Productions:During the Q&A section of the panel, a fan said, "I would really love to see new adventures after Jedi with our favorite characters Luke, Han and Leia," to which Sansweet replied, "And you will, in the new animation."
Steve Sansweet confirmed at C2E2 that LucasFilm plans to revisit the original cast of characters from Star Wars in post Return of the Jedi adventures.
However, it will be in the same animated format as The Clone Wars series running today.http://www.bestofluckproductions.com/?q=node/603Oh, there was one ominous thing he said though... not everyone who dies in sci-fi stays dead. He continued by stating we'll see what he means in 3 to 4 years.

Enjoy a river walk
Take a tranquil stroll along the banks of the River Hamble and enjoy some spectacular views from its banks.
Spot the wreck of the Grace Dieu, one of the largest naval vessels of medieval times, which burnt and sank just south of the jetty when it was struck by lightening in 1439 – a large X marks the spot in the river where she rests. You may have seen the 2005 Time Team programme about her excavation. Read more about the Grace Dieu.


text: Well,still working on the architecture of OpenTPM. Lee XiaoFeng joined the project and suggested a very interesting "cache-coherent" design. But to me it looks too complicated to implement JOINs when using this design.So for now we will probably stick to "one master- many slaves" design if we won't get a better idea.

Palestinian diplomat to speak, Jan. 15
Posted December 15, 2006; 11:18 a.m.
Afif Safieh, the head of the Palestine Liberation Organization Mission to the United States, will offer his perspective on the relationship between Palestine and Israel in a lecture at 4:30 p.m. Monday, Jan. 15, in Dodds Auditorium of Robertson Hall. The free event is open to the public and hosted by the Department and Program in Near Eastern Studies.
Safieh, whose talk is titled "Israel/Palestine: History Is Undecided," is one of the leading diplomats of Palestine, having represented the Palestinian state in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and now the United States, where he was appointed in 2005 to his post at the PLO Mission in Washington, D.C. The mission serves as the Palestinian embassy in the United States.
Among his other notable appointments, Safieh served from 1978 to 1981 as a staff member in the office of Yasser Arafat, former chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization, in Beirut, Lebanon. He also participated in the 1988 historic meetings in Stockholm that paved the way for the U.S. recognition of the PLO.
Near Eastern studies professor Abraham Udovitch was among five Americans who participated in the Stockholm meeting and invited Safieh to Princeton for the Jan. 15 talk.
"Given the importance of the Palestine question, especially in the current troubled conditions in the Middle East, we can expect an illuminating analysis of the current situation and the prospects of some progress on this very difficult issue," said Udovitch, the Khedouri A. Zilkha Professor of Jewish Civilization in the Near East. "For the Palestinians, this is a delicate moment both internally and in the region, and few people are as well placed as Afif Safieh to cast some light on this complex situation."
The talk is co-sponsored by the Department of History, University Center for Human Values, Princeton Institute for International and Regional Studies, Princeton Student Committee for Palestine, Princeton Middle East Society, and Institute for the Transregional Study of the Contemporary Middle East, North Africa and Central Asia.

Recently Skynews reported in an article "10 things that we can learn from Japan" I thought this was interesting, because beyond the obvious it is a look in the mirror, a way to judge ourselves and the culture in which we are raising our kids. Not so long ago we witnessed the tragedy of Katrina in New Orleans. As much as the hurricane left a path of destruction, the pain came from seeing how our fellow man treated one another. The Rodney King riots is another example. We can debate justice another time, but the actions following the verdict were just a terrible, if not more than the beating of Rodney King. In our country we burn cars in the street and vandalize after a sports team wins a championship.. my goodness.. what are we?
Look at natural disasters that have devastated parts of our world and see what man does in its aftermath. Haiti? New Orleans? Los Angels? Japan? Take a look at a part of the article about the recent devastation in Japan and use it to measure ourselves as a Nation.. as a World.
1. THE CALM- Not a single visual of chest-beating or wild grief. Sorrow itself has been elevated.
2. THE DIGNITY- Disciplined queues for water and groceries. Not a rough word or a crude gesture. Their patience is admirable and praiseworthy.
3. THE ABILITY- The incredible architects, for instance. Buildings swayed but didn't fall.
4. THE GRACE (Selflessness)- People bought only what they needed for the present, so everybody could get something.
5. THE ORDER- No looting in shops. No honking and no overtaking on the roads. Just understanding.
6. THE SACRIFICE- Fifty workers stayed back to pump sea water in the N-reactors. How will they ever be repaid?
7. THE TENDERNESS- Restaurants cut prices. An unguarded ATM is left alone. The strong cared for the weak.
8. THE TRAINING- The old and the children, everyone knew exactly what to do. And they did just that.
9. THE MEDIA- They showed magnificent restraint in the bulletins. No silly reporters. Only calm reportage. Most of all – NO POLITICIANS TRYING TO GET CHEAP MILEAGE.
10. THE CONSCIENCE- When the power went off in a store, people put things back on the shelves and left quietly.
Now I am not saying the heroic and wonderful things have not happened in our darkest hours, but by and large, we have a lot to learn about civility and humanity. Whats this got to do with a Scouting Blog.
Read the Oath and Law and see how well the Japanese measure up to it.
Just an observation from one Scouter that wants to be better.
Have a Great Scouting Day!

Unfortunately there is no home remedy or medicine that you can use now. First visit a dentist for cleaning and polishing of the teeth to remove the plaque. Following that, brush twice a day. Also use a medicated mouth wash.
27 years old male from Kolkata asked
In morning, I get little thick jelly like saliva in my mouth. What is the cause? Do I need to worry?
Dentist, Bangalore
Saliva production is directly related to the activities in the mouth like chewing and speaking. Whenever there is some activity in the mouth it stimulates saliva production. Since during sleep there is no activity going on in the mouth, saliva production is reduced. Hence, the first saliva produced in the morning will be thicker in consistency. There is no reason to worry.

The yellow and brown stains can be removed easily by cleaning and polishing if the teeth done by the dentist. For the black dots, if it cavity, then you need to get filings by the dentist. Variety of filling materials are available in market today.

Dear User, If you have quit smoking and not using any other form of tobacco then I could say that withdrawal of nicotine may include anxiety, tremors, restlessness, craving for tobacco/smoking, constipation, cough, dizziness, drowsiness, headache, impulsivity, fatigue, flu symptoms, mood swings, mouth ulcers, and increased dreaming. Cessation of nicotine usually increases eating and weight, decreases memory, decreases the ability to pay attention and concentrate on tasks, and decreased heart rate. Now among this symptoms, the thing which needs attention is mouth ulcer. You need to get it examined if it is an ulcer or not, and if ulcer is not healing then you may need further investigation. Apart from that none symptom might be due to nicotine. In that case your health professional needs to find other cause. So My suggestion is that you should see ENT surgeon first. And follow his/her advice.

When brushing your teeth, position the bristles at an angle of 45 degrees near the gum line. Both the gum line and the tooth surface should be in contact with the bristles. Brush the outer surfaces of the teeth using a back-and-forth, up-and-down motion, making sure to be done gently in order to avoid bleeding. To clean the inside surfaces of the teeth and gums, place the bristles at a 45-degree angle again and repeat the back-and-forth, up-and-down motion. Lastly, brush the surfaces of your tongue and the roof of your mouth to remove bacteria, which might cause bad breath.
21 years old female from Hyderabad asked
I am 21 year old, I recently had severe tooth ache and dentist after x ray said, its bcz 1 of the wisdom teeth which is half grown outside gums and unable to come out completely as there's no space for it. He also said that I need to get all 4 teeth removed some day as there's no space and will cause much pain further. I was said its not immediately necessary to remove tooth but I can go for it when the pain gets worse. But surprisingly after few days the tooth ache has completely gone by itself and I have no other dental problem .what does this mean? Did my tooth grow normal? Do I need to take an x ray to confirm it inspite of no pain at all.

Dear Lybrate user, Pain associated with an erupting wisdom tooth may not be constant. The pain may disappear which does not suggest that the tooth may be erupting normally. It would best to get an x-ray done and consult a dentist. The X-ray would definitely help and avoid problems such as difficulty in opening mouth, infection in the erupting wisdom tooth area. Take care.

Hello. After root canal there will be mild pain for few days and gradually it will subside. So please wait for 1 week if still persist then take an x ray and see. Thank you.

First get cleaning and polishing of the teeth. If still you feel that they are yellow, you can do teeth whitening / bleaching. It is safe. Now a days even home kits are available. But please do any whitening procedure under dentist supervision. A drawback of this procedure may however be an increase in sensitivity of the teeth.
33 years old male from Pune asked
Dear experts/specialists, Please help. I have an issue with bad breath. I visit dentist once in a year and according to him my teeth are very clean and maintained. Whatever bad breath is coming, it is occurring due to poor digestion, nasal drip or due to throat issue. Fyi, I have a running nose tendency while eating food, brushing teeth. I myself feel the bad breath within throat area and always feel that some food particles are stuck in throat and that is causing bad breath. Also, I read on Google that this may be due to liver not functioning properly. I want to get rid of this bad breath issue permanently so please guide about next to do's, which kind of doctor shall I see in Pune etc? Any help, advice would be highly appreciated.
Dentist, Gurgaon
Dear Lybrate user, if you're facing indigestion issues or nasal drip, you should consult a gastroenterologist and pulmonologist (respiratory specialist) in your area. You might need to modify your diet a little. The doctor might prescribe you medicines to get rid of this problem. Try to take your meals well in time and don't lie down for at least 1 hour after eating. You can try some homeopathic or ayurvedic treatments as well. First get the check up done, get to the root cause of your problem and pursue the treatment accordingly.

Hello, bad smell could be because of deposits on teeth surface or food lodged in between teeth. Visit a dentist and get your scaling and polishing done. Brush your teeth twice daily. Night brushing is very important. Floss regularly. Rinse after every meal. Visit dentist every 6 months.
19 years old female from Chandrapur asked
I have a problem of bad breath I used so many toothpaste but not work what would I do to solve this problem.
Dentist, Delhi
Hello Lybrate user, using only toothpaste is not the solution for bad breath. Bad breath may be due to various reasons like deposits on teeth, less intake of water. First you should go for scaling n polishing. Brush twice daily, mouthwash at night, clean your tongue after brushing, drink plenty of water.

27 years old female from Siliguri asked
I was having very bad pain in the middle part of my teeth of upper jaw so today I went to meet my dentist after examine my tooth my dentist told me that I have to go for root canal which is going to cost around 8 to 10000 including that capping also like he said I have to come for three settings which will cost around 3000 and capping r kf three types which start from 1500,4000 nd 8000 but my problem is that this is out of my budget because right now I am facing some financial crisis so m not able to afford it is there any other way to get rid of this pain because it is paining like hell. And I am from siliguri so kindly tel me if there is any other doctor who will take less money for this whole treatment.
Certified Implantologist, BDS
Dentist, Mumbai
Hi I would suggest that just get the root canal done as of now So that your pain will stop forever. And will cost less And after a month or two Get the cap done Remember Don't forget the cap As the tooth can break without a cap In this way your expenses will get divided And also a proper treatment done Or another option is to get it done at government hospital or trust where charges would be minimum.
15 years old male from Kannur asked

Hello Lybrate User, Bad breath is also known as Halitosis, foul smelling odor that seems to come from the mouth cavity. Dry mouth, certain foods such as Onion and garlic because they contain smelly sulfur compounds., poor dental hygiene are few causes of bad breath. Self care technique can help to minimize bad breath, these techniques are as follows - a. use oral care products, like mouthwashes and toothpastes. b. proper oral care, brush and floss your teeth at least twice a day and use fluoride toothpaste. c. stimulate your salivary flow - prevent dry mouth with chewing gum or mints. d. eat fibrous fruits and vegetables. e. Brush your teeth occasionally with baking soda. e. stop smoking. f. Drink plenty of water. g. Take a dietary supplement - Vitamin C, D, E and B help to eliminate excess mucus and toxins naturally. h. Avoid alcohol. i. Clean your tongue daily. Along with that take Homeopathic treatment, the natural homeopathic remedies for bad breath, which are completely safe and no side effects. Homeopathic remedies provide a permanent treatment for bad breath. For homeopathic treatment consult me on lybrate privately. Take care.

There is a lot of pain in my wisdom tooth, I thought wisdom tooth is coming now so I am getting pain but I am not sure. It is from last one week and becoz of that my ears are also paining, last 2 days I took pain killer but it will effect for only sometime.

Wisdom tooth erupts anytime after 21 years of age. Please take an Xray of the tooth to determine exact position of wisdom tooth. *Sometimes when erupting there can be food accumulation between tooth and gums giving rise to pain. *if the position of tooth is also crooked then pain can arise. Advise extraction please visit dentist for treatment.
33 years old male from Kolkata asked
I am facing bad breath problem. Even though used to brush twice in a day and also use tongue cleaner. I am also using mouth wash. Still facing the problem of bleeding gum and bad breath. Please help me and suggest me the remedy.
BDS, MDS, Post Graduate Diploma In Hospital Administration (PGDHA)
Dentist, Mumbai
The personal hygiene habits followed by you are good. Keep it up! Maybe the food particles that are stuck in between your teeth have become hard and thus cannot be removed easily just with a brush. So, cleaning and polishing by dental professional will help you. Both your problems will be solved once you do cleaning. Also consider drinking at least 12-15 glasses of water a day.
28 years old female from Bangalore asked
Hi Doctor, I am having bad breath from few years. Early morning after I brush my teeth I see feel some water saliva in my month. As some doctors told its an acidity problem and taken medicine for that but its no use. Kindly suggest me how I can come out of that soon.
Dentist, Gurgaon
Medication cure acidity bt doesn't prevent. So you have to alter your eating and drinking pattern to prevent acidity problem. Bad breath can occur due to pyria as well. If you have pyria then please visit a dentist he will do scaling.

7 Things To Tell the Teacher at the Beginning of the School Year
This (hot, hot) summer of course is moving quickly! It's the end of August.
So much to do. I already have school forms to fill out. The kids just got their hair cut for pictures. Form and Fee day for Lincoln is tomorrow!
(Okay, we haven't gone school shopping yet. My boys hate trying on clothes. And I dread crowded stores and staring blankly at mountains of school supplies!)
However, as I do every year - either before school or right after the start of school - I plan to talk to my kids' teachers. For me, this is extremely important. I do this to meet the teacher, talk about my child's learning style and their individual personaities, and voice any concern I have for the upcoming school year. I also feel that sitting down with a teacher in person is a way to make myself more approachable to the teacher.
I highly recommend that all parents do this with their kids' teachers. I am a working mom. However, this time of year, as busy as I am, I make the time for this meeting.
I also always try to remind myself of this one thing at the beginning of school:
As parents - we are the true experts of our kids. There is no one who can help a child's school and teacher succeed better than the child's parent. In my opinion, communication and cooperation between parent and teacher is one of the best tools a school can use.
Here is a wonderful and insightful article from schoolfamily.com: 7 Things to Tell the Teacher. This article gives parents extemely helpful ideas about what to talk about. I am copying directly from the web site.
Health conditions: If your child is diabetic, uses an inhaler, is allergic to, or has a serious health condition, her teacher should know. It's also helpful to let the teacher know whether your child has been diagnosed with conditions like ADHD, which may affect behavior and concentration.
Family issues: Fill in the teacher if your family is going through a major change that could affect your child, such as a divorce, a death in the family, or a move. Even if your child seems to have adjusted well, alert teachers so they can watch for behavioral changes.
Personality traits or behavior issues: Maybe your son is painfully shy and is worried about making friends at a new school. Or perhaps your kindergartner has been having tantrums at home and you're concerned she'll do the same at school. It's best to make teachers aware of these issues before they become a problem at school.

Stanford smothers Oregon State; more extra late Week 9 Snap Judgments
• No. 8 Stanford 20, Oregon State 12: Those expecting a late-night Pac-12 shootout were likely disappointed, but the Cardinal have to be happy with their defensive performance on the road against an explosive Beavers team that was knocking on the door at the end of the fourth quarter.
Stanford held Oregon State to 288 total yards and kept quarterback Sean Mannion and receiver Brandin Cooks largely in check early, with the pair only connecting once for two yards in the first half. The Cardinal defense collected eight sacks on the night.
Oregon State coach Mike Riley seemed to know the game would be shortened if Stanford had the ball for prolonged periods of time, so he frequently went for it on fourth down (although he puzzlingly decided to punt with under five minutes to play; naturally Stanford fumbled and gave the ball back to Oregon State). The Cardinal defense stepped up and only allowed the Beavers to convert one of the five fourth-down chances they took.
Stanford trailed 3-0 late into the first half, but it finally got a quick strike with less than a minute to play before halftime, thanks to a rushing score by Tyler Gaffney. The Cardinal running back (150 yards, 3 touchdowns) picked up hard yards all night, putting up another score early in the second half to give Stanford a two-score lead at the time. A week after racking up 36 carries and 171 yards against UCLA, Stanford fed it to Gaffney 22 times, wearing down the Beavers up front.
Oregon State had too many weapons to stay dormant for good, and Mannion (42-of-58, 274 yards, 1 TD) and Cooks (10 catches, 82 yards, 1 TD) finally started to get in rhythm, utilizing short passes all over the field to get the lead down to 13-9 near the end of the third quarter.
While Stanford's loss to Utah will hang over it like a ghost the rest of the season (let's call him Utey; he's a friendly ghost like Casper and he isn't spooky at all), the team has plenty of opportunities to stay in the national title picture against good competition if the Cardinal can continue to win.
The Nov. 7 game against Oregon has been circled since preseason, and Derek Mason's defense will be tested greatly. Nobody's been able to stop Oregon yet, but Stanford found a formula to upend the Ducks last year in a 17-14 overtime victory. And we all know smart kids are good at math. [RECAP l BOX]
• Texas 30, TCU 7: A lengthy lightning delay (and a super short halftime) played havoc with the flow of this game, but the Longhorns put together their second straight good win. TCU has not been able to solve the offensive problems that have plagued the Horned Frogs all year, and the defense allowed a gain of 5.8 yards per play. Because football is weird, Texas and Baylor are the only teams without a Big 12 loss, and the Longhorns are now at 5-2 entering a very winnable two-game stretch against Kansas and at West Virginia. [RECAP l BOX] • No. 15 Fresno State 35, San Diego State 28 (OT): Those who stayed up for this one were rewarded like people who sit through the end of a video game for Easter eggs after the credits. Fresno State finally seemed to shake the Aztecs, going ahead by two scores early in the fourth quarter, but SDSU refused to go away in a rainy and odd game. It successfully completed an onside kick down seven, threw in a hook and ladder for good measure, then scored on a third-and-one play with a fullback plunge for 27 yards to tie the game. The Aztecs had a chance to win in regulation, but kicker Seamus McMorrow missed a field goal, sending the game to overtime. Fresno State scored (on a Marteze Waller one-yard run), San Diego State didn't , and the game ended at 2:38 a.m. on the East Coast. The Bulldogs' BCS hopes are still alive. [RECAP l BOX]


text: OK, so there is a little disturbance in the Force over here at SSG forums, but I still need to know; how many POTF2 figures are there? I've checked outy the picture archive and the price guide, but still can't get a definite answer. I'm not talking about figures that came with vehicles or beast packs or exclusives. I know that a lot of the figures were released on multiple cardbacks also. I just want a close number (including resculpts of course) as I am looking into purchasing a complete collection from eBay or something. I figured at my closest count there was 101. I only want 1 of each figure and care little for variations. Thanks.

STARKVILLE – Mississippi State's players have said all season that there's something special about this team. John Cohen believes there is certainly something different about it.
The No. 13-ranked Bulldogs (18-2) are off to their best start under Cohen, but it gets a little tougher now. No. 7 LSU (16-1) visits Starkville today to open SEC play with a three-game series.
First pitch tonight is set for 6:30, while Saturday's game starts at 6 p.m. and Sunday's at 1:30 p.m.
Cohen recalled one of his earlier MSU teams preparing for a game in Pearl, and the locker room was dead silent, and the players seemed "kind of frozen, not loose, relaxed and confident," Cohen said.
This team is the opposite of that.
"You can have all the confidence in the world, but if you play against a club like LSU and you don't play well, you're not going to win games," he said. "But I do like the fact that our kids have a grasp of what we're trying to accomplish. They're loose, they're relaxed, they have fun together."
That demeanor helped MSU bounce back from two losses to Central Arkansas last weekend with a dominating 13-5 win over Southern Miss on Tuesday.
lsu's on a roll
The trick now is to carry that over into this weekend against an LSU team that's playing as well as anyone in the country.
The Tigers have won 11 in a row, and they'll test MSU in every respect. They rank second in the SEC in batting average, sixth in ERA and first in fielding percentage.
The Bulldogs rank second in ERA, at 1.84. Sophomore Jacob Lindgren (2-0, 0.96), who suffered a bone bruise on his left knee last weekend, will start on the mound tonight.
Cohen expects to get a lot of work out of the left-hander.
"If Jacob Lindgren can get us five innings – or even six innings into a ball game – it sets up our bullpen nicely to have a chance to win baseball games," Cohen said.
Outfielder Hunter Renfroe, who's hitting .436 with five home runs and 23 RBIs, feels the Bulldogs are ready for SEC play in every aspect but have to guard against over-confidence and stay focused on the basics.
"You're going to have to put balls in play and line drives and work the counts," he said.

NBC News Correspondent Bob Dotson has been in more motel rooms than the Gideon Bible, crisscrossing this country, four million miles, practically nonstop, for 40 years, searching for people who are practically invisible, the ones who change our lives, but don't take time to tweet and tell us about it.

"They may not run for President or go on talk shows," Dotson says, "but without their contribution, the kind of country we love would not exist. These are people with thoughtful solutions to problems we all face, incredible ideas that work, a blueprint for our own dreams and a way to make America better. The country survives and thrives because of all those names we don't know, ordinary people who live life with passion, who succeed not just on talent and hard work, but curiosity and imagination."
His long-running series, "The American Story with Bob Dotson," is a regular feature on the TODAY show and other NBC News programs. He has received more than 100 awards for his work in broadcast journalism, including eight National Emmys. In 2012 the Radio Television Digital News Association chose Dotson to receive the Edward R. Murrow Award for Writing a record sixth time and the Society of Professional Journalists cited Dotson's columns for TODAY.COM as the "best writing in new media." His work has also won top journalism awards from the National Press Photographers, Dupont-Columbia and Robert F. Kennedy Foundation.
Dotson's stories have taken him to every state, many times, and around the world. He is an internationally acclaimed documentary producer. His film, El Capitan's Courageous Climbers (NBC Productions,) was the winner of seven International Film and Video Festivals and was awarded documentary's highest honor, the CINE Grand Prize. He started with a groundbreaking film called "Through the Looking Glass, Darkly," which chronicled Black history in the old west at a time when such history was mostly ignored by mainstream media. "Looking Glass" won every major award and started Dotson on his long career at NBC News.
He was also the writer and host of "Bob Dotson's America," a series of programs on the Travel Channel and has written three books, the latest "American Story," (Viking Press, New York, NY) was published in March 2013. His literary writing has won the George Washington Honor Medal for excellence.
Dotson's stories often take him to places other reporters seldom stop, so over the years he saved more than 6,000 videotapes, whenever his bosses, looking to save space, tossed them out. He preserved not just the stories themselves, but every field cassette. For three decades, they were maintained at his own expense in air-conditioned rooms — first in his basement, then, as the collection grew, in warehouses. He finally returned them to NBC when the company agreed to digitize this unique archive and make it available to scholars. NBC donated a copy of Dotson's archive to the University of Oklahoma in the state where his career began.
Dotson started working at the NBC station in Oklahoma City, WKY-TV (now KFOR-TV.) He was director of Special Projects. In that post, he produced and directed 19 documentary programs from 1969 until 1975. He joined NBC News in 1975 as a reporter at WKYC-TV, the NBC television station in Cleveland. Two years later, he opened NBC's first news bureau in Dallas from which he covered Central America. In 1979 he moved to the NBC News bureau in Atlanta. In addition to his TODAY and NBC Nightly News assignments, he also worked on several NBC News magazine programs.
Dotson was born in St. Louis, Mo. He received a Bachelor of Science degree in journalism and political science from Kansas University (1968) and a Master of Science in television and film from Syracuse University (1969) where he was a Graduate Fellow and Outstanding Masters candidate. While attending college, he was a reporter and photographer for KMBC-TV in Kansas City, Mo., and was news director and reporter for KFKU-KANU-FM in Lawrence, Kansas.
Dotson lives in New York City with his wife, the former Linda Puckett. They have one daughter, Amy, who is the Creative Director of Independent Film Project, an organization that teaches film makers how best to tell their stories.

Princeternship program connects students to careers through alumni
Posted April 5, 2012; 12:00 p.m.
From working at an auction house to meeting government leaders, Princeton University undergraduates participating in the Office of Career Services' Princeternship program explore potential careers by getting an inside look at the jobs of alumni.
Since the program was re-launched in 2008, more than 200 students have spent one to three days during their academic breaks at alumni workplaces across the country, with 34 students most recently participating during spring break, March 17-25.
The program enables undergraduate students to make professional connections and explore a range of industries, including architecture, arts, business, communications, engineering, health care, nonprofits, technology and more. The alumni hosts expose students to a "day in the life" of their profession by arranging for students to participate in board, client or patient meetings, office tours, seminars, case studies and projects.
"The information gathered through this exposure to professions helps students as they consider the connection between their majors and careers, and try to decide which career is the right 'fit' for them," Director of Career Services Beverly Hamilton-Chandler said. "While some students come to Princeton with a specific career path in mind, most begin the process of exploring majors and careers while in school. The career development process is a journey that unfolds as students expand their knowledge and experiences, and continues throughout their time at Princeton and beyond."
The Princeternship program is one of the many ways that students and alumni can network through Career Services. Nearly 200 alumni participated in career education programs last year as hosts, guest speakers, panelists and mentors.
"Student-alumni engagement is an important part of career exploration and the Princeton experience," said Lisa Bogdanski, assistant director of student/alumni engagement programs, which is a new role designed to enhance and expand alumni partnerships with Career Services.
Hamilton-Chandler said alumni are an important resource for both information and inspiration.
"Each of their career journeys has been unique and their educational and extracurricular experiences, professional interests and goals have led them in different paths — some in directions they might have never imagined while in school," she said. "Alumni can also show students that they can have successful careers in areas that might not be related to their undergraduate major."
Noting the level of support from alumni given the challenging economic climate, Hamilton-Chandler added, "Now, more than ever, we appreciate the continued support of alumni who, through their dedication and involvement with their alma mater, are making a difference by sharing their insights and advice for current students as they navigate through the career exploration process."
In addition to student-alumni events, Career Services offers several programs that allow students to assess their interests and skills, strengthen their knowledge of career options, pursue their career goals, participate in internships, pursue graduate studies and gain employment after graduation.
As part of Career Services' continuing efforts, Hamilton-Chandler said the office hopes to expand the Princeternship program by increasing the number of alumni hosts, locations and student participants.
Students can apply to the Princeternship program through the Career Services' TigerTracks website and are encouraged to chronicle their experiences by writing a blog for the website. The following are excerpts from blogs written by five students.
Historical Footnote: After this article was published, additional historical information was obtained indicating that a form of Princeternships was offered in the early 1980s through the mid-1990s. The program was initially designed as a way to give seniors the opportunity to receive hands-on career experience by pairing them with alumni who work in their field of interest. In 2008, the Princeternship program was re-launched with an emphasis on early student engagement with alumni as part of the career exploration process.

Princeternship: Princeton Musculoskeletal Institute, Princeton, N.J.
The thought of going to medical school is an intimidating one, one which we have to spend time to think about and explore through various activities, shadowing experience and talks with others. This Princeternship allowed me and my fellow Princetern, Kanwal Matharu, Class of 2013, to witness a professional who truly enjoyed every minute of his job. My host, Dr. Richard Levandowski, Class of 1970, has a love of medicine, and his patients' love for him was evident in every appointment. This inspired us to fully commit to medical school and tackle all of the challenges ahead with this type of specialization as a possible goal.
We would enthusiastically recommend this Princeternship because of the environment Dr. Levandowski creates with his energy. He engaged us in various ways, whether it be asking us questions or sharing anecdotes, or giving us stethoscopes to give us a way to contribute to patient care in a small way. Dr. Levandowski and his staff made us feel welcome at every step, and it was a great experience. Although writing simple prescriptions and taking heart rates was fun, the true value of this Princeternship was spending time with Dr. Levandowski and his caring staff.

Princeternship: Pace University Law School, New York
After a full morning at the courthouse, my host, Ms. Elizabeth Corwin, Class of 1989, took us over to Pace Law School for lunch and a meeting with a student studying international law. She explained to us that, while students may get a certificate in a certain type of law, this doesn't limit them to practicing that type. We ended the day sitting in on a class, "Criminal Procedure Adjudication." The day we visited, the class was discussing the different ways of screening the decision to charge, comparing preliminary hearings to grand juries. At some points, the professor lectured, but she spent a lot of the class time posing questions to the students and guiding them to the answers, rather than telling them. Students were all actively involved in the learning process.
Overall, I was extremely satisfied with this Princeternship. I got to experience a bit of what it's like to be a law student and also see some lawyers in action. I was only vaguely thinking about law school as an option before, but this experience has made me want to consider it more seriously. I learned so much in these three days, and I would recommend the program to anyone thinking about law.

Hana Garfing, Class of 2013
Princeternship: Christie's auction house, New York
My host, Mr. George McNeely, Class of 1983, was down to earth, engaging and incredibly likeable. In a short amount of time, he explained to me how Christie's worked and what business development does. He really loves his job and has a true passion for the art auction house. His office walls are covered in colorful posters, including an image from an art exam that I took last week. I was given a project to research the Chinese art market, the subject of an upcoming panel discussion that Mr. McNeely would be participating in. I was also told that I would be helping his assistant and the other administrative assistants during my short time. Organizational skills and use of [Microsoft] Excel were imperative in this role.
I loved my time at Christie's and wish that I could have stayed longer. Everyone was friendly, welcoming, smart and deeply passionate about the work they were doing. I briefly experienced that in this field, no day is the same, so getting bored is never an issue. I love performing different tasks, always expect the unexpected and enjoy adapting to new environments, so this Princeternship was perfect for someone like me.

Princeternship: SRI International, Princeton
I met my host, Dr. Dennis Matthies, a graduate alumnus from the Class of 1974, at Frist Campus Center for a short drive down Washington Road to SRI International (formerly Sarnoff Corporation). As we entered the building, he told Josh Chen, Class of 2014, and me about the rich history of the laboratories. They were formerly part of RCA Corporation and the location of innovations such as the color television, liquid crystal displays, high-definition television and many others.
We went from the past to the present as we went through an iris scanner that identifies employees as they walk through it and over to Dr. Matthies' office, where he told us about his current responsibilities in the company.
The most valuable part of the day for me was hearing about Dr. Matthies' experience, the range of his projects and his perspective on defense contracting. I would enthusiastically recommend the Princeternship program to anyone curious about a career path or industry. As Dr. Matthies pointed out, Princeton alumni are very eager to share their experience and expertise with current students.

Princeternship: U.S. Department of Education, Washington D.C.
Mr. Massie Ritsch, Class of 1998, my host during the Princeternship, brought me to an array of top government meetings within his department. I was given the wonderful opportunity to sit in on a confidential debriefing between top White House officials and the Department of Education's political appointees. I was then whisked away to another important meeting where the department discussed an upcoming international summit for education. I was able to listen as the department's leaders talked to representatives from all over the world about this upcoming event.
I've learned so much about the government and my perspectives have definitely changed. This has helped me to see that I want to continue learning about policy and education reform. This experience has reinforced my desire to further change in my own community and provide resources for the students who are fighting for a better education. If you're a freshman interested in government, policy, or just education in general, go for this opportunity.

Details on G-Star Lynn Skinny COJ scarlet
G-Star Lynn Skinny COJ scarlet are ultra comfortable jeans in fiery red and suitable not only for leisure. Thanks to the percentage of elastane, these G-Star jeans fit perfectly and cut a great figure.
History of G-Star Jeans
G-Star stands for up-to-date fashion, combined with high quality. There's a particularly high demand for G-Star jeans among the fashion-conscious. The brand was founded in the Netherlands and Belgium in 1989 when it was first called Gapstar. However, already in 1993 the name was changed to G-Star. The company is based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands and has been owned by Jos van Tilburg since 2003. G-Star's philosophy has always been "Just the Product". The brand became particularly famous for its G-Star jeans.
Above all, G-Star jeans are made from high-quality denim. And G-Star turns those high-quality jeans into roadworthy clothing. Those jeans can be worn casually for shopping or may just as well form a stylish and laid-back part of an evening outfit. The company pays special attention to a unique jeans design that goes along with high quality. The denim's beauty is moved to the focus with extraordinary washes and special treatment. The washes offered are highly versatile. You can choose from almost raw, untreated denim to strongly bleached models. This is why each pair of G-Star jeans is almost unique and has its very individual features. Apart from high-quality manufacture, G-Star also emphasizes ecological processes. So G-Star tries to reduce the use of conventional cotton and opts for the reduction of pesticides and fertilisers in the cultivation of this raw material. G-Star employs a lot of famous designers. In 1991, Pierre Morisset was recruited.
The Frenchman contributed significantly to the success of the G-Star Elwood. Besides, G-Star always wins exceptional models for the presentation of its products. In 2010, the new collection was presented by Norwegian chess player Magnus Carlesen, while in 2013 Kasabian guitarist Sergio Pizzorno was chosen to present the fashion company's campaign. Apart from G-Star jeans, the brand also offers other high-quality products which feature exclusive designs. Among other things, G-Star produces shoes, jackets, T-shirts, caps, sweaters and coats. G-Star and especially G-Star jeans stand for up-to-date and high-quality clothing that you may wear on almost any occasion. Just in line with G-Star's philosophy: Just the Product.

Providing neuroscientists with a window to the brain
Posted August 30, 2007; 10:11 a.m.
When Princeton neuroscientists want a close-up view of the brain, they need look no further than Green Hall's magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner.
One of only a few of the devices located at an academic institution, the MRI is among the most sophisticated tools available at Princeton's Center for the Study of Brain, Mind and Behavior and constitutes the human brain imaging facility of the new Princeton Neuroscience Institute. It has been in nearly continuous use since its installation in November 2000, providing data for many campus psychologists and their collaborators from fields as varied as chemistry, molecular biology, mathematics and engineering.
The device has allowed Princeton neuroscientists to conduct a wide array of pioneering experiments, ranging from some of the most detailed studies of the brain's visual system ever to be carried out in a human, to the first studies of characteristically human faculties such as moral reasoning and economic decision-making.
The scanner provides a visual cross-section of the brain in real time, but uses a non-invasive technique that does no harm to living tissue. However, because the MRI generates a magnetic field that is about 60,000 times stronger than the Earth's, not even the smallest piece of iron or steel can be brought safely into the room with it.
"For this reason, it is smaller than other scanners, and a test subject's entire body does not need to pass entirely into the machine," said Karthik Prabakharan, the facility's magnetic resonance engineer. "Only the head to the stomach goes inside."
The center has also integrated the MRI with other forms of real-time sensing that track eye motion and changes in the skin. Observing these other types of responses permit a more comprehensive understanding of how the brain reacts to the world.
The University's planned new buildings to house the neuroscience institute and psychology department -- to be located south of the Icahn Laboratory -- are expected to include space to significantly expand the MRI facilities.
