Cal Saunders spent a lifetime in the woods, as a guide and outfitter for Americans and mainlanders, and locals too, who would travel to Cal's lodge on the Gander River for some prime hunting and fishing.
He was at it over half a decade, in fact, only packing it in just a few years ago.
"I had to take care of my wife," he says. "And I figured I'd come home and relax a little bit."
Saunders was born on the shores of Gander Bay, in Clarke's Head, 84 years ago. There wasn't a lot of playing sports in that part of the world back then.
Sport, rather, was catching fish and shooting rabbits.
So we know where Cal's oldest grandson, Michael Saunders, gets his love of the outdoors.
Michael works in Seattle, but lives in Denver. The reason he's settled in Colorado, the grandfather says, is because he wants to live in a place that has more than one season.
"We're trying to talk him into coming in this winter to do some ski-dooing," Cal says.
That could be doable. Spring and summer, however, is pretty much out the window since Michael is busy playing outfield for the Seattle Mariners, part of the new wave of Canadian baseball stars in the major leagues.
Suffice to say, Cal Saunders might be the only Mariners fan in all of Gander.
Michael's father, Derek Saunders, was born and raised in Gander and was a pretty fair ball player himself, the elder Saunders reports. Derek eventually entered Memorial University's medical faculty and upon graduation, headed west to Victoria, B.C. where he settled and married Jane Dykstra, who worked as a respiratory therapist.
"He played hockey, and was really leaning towards that sport," Cal said of his grandson who grew up in Victoria. "Of course, out in Victoria, they start playing baseball in February.
"Anyway, he came home one day and said he was quitting hockey to stick with baseball. He was about 14. The hockey games were getting a bit rougher and he figured if he stayed, he'd get killed.
"His father tried to talk him out of it, but Michael said his mind was made up."
Good choice.
Last year, Saunders hit 19 home runs and knocked in 57 for the Mariners, though he's been slumping this season with a .202 batting average and four homers.
Almost as bad as the 2011 season, but he had an excuse that year. That's when his Mom died following a battle with breast cancer.
"That had a big affect on Michael," said his grandfather.
Cal Saunders catches almost every Mariners game on television. When we chatted, in fact, he was watching the Mariners-Los Angeles Angels game from the night before.
However, Cal has never seen Michael play live.
"I'm getting too old and decrepit now to travel," he jokes.
Growing up, Michael was close to his grandfather, despite the huge geographic separation. Cal would sometimes head to Victoria, and every summer, Dr. Saunders would bring the family home to Gander.
"They'd be here a couple, three weeks," Cal says. "I'd bring them up to the cabin on the river and Michael would fish up there all the time."
The grandfather says his baseball star grandson would like to get back on the river again sometime soon to flick a line.
But for now, he's making catches in ball parks across America and Toronto.
And back in Gander, Cal Saunders beams with pride.
Character guys
Must have been nice for the boys down at St. Pat's to see Edgar Hartery drop by the ball park for a visit this week.
Telegram photographer Joe Gibbons had a nice shot of Edgar in the paper Wednesday.
Edgar's getting along in years (I have no idea how old he is, and not about to guess for fear of Edgar's wrath lest I overestimate), and he rarely gets down to the ball park.
But remembering Edgar in his heyday (wonder who hung all of his jackets on the outfield fence?) reminds me of a time when there were characters involved with local sports.
Like Edgar, and Duey Fitzgerald and Snowy Carroll. Last time I saw Edgar was at Snowy's birthday party at Ben's, and that was a hoot.
I vaguely recall Bucky King doing pushups down at the old Stadium.
The characters aren't around anymore, and the athletes, it seems, take themselves a bit too serious.
I might even suggest they are, for the most part, vanilla.
You couldn't say that about Mike Hagerty.
That's why it's refreshing to listen to T. Ryan Jr., a chip off the ol' block, chat it up today.
I wish there more of all those guys around today (well, except for Hags, maybe).

By Richmond Times-Dispatch
Sisyphus would have recognized 2012 and the years leading to it – perhaps several thousand of them. Myths reveal truths. Mankind pushes the boulder to the mountaintop only to see it roll down again. This is not to say progress cannot occur, but it is to say that men and women cannot escape the tragic sense of life. Their perseverance confers nobility.
The past year was dominated by events foreseen and unforeseen. The presidential election focused eyes on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November. Republicans endured a succession of primaries. Candidates rose and fell. Mitt Romney survived. Virginia ranked among the battlegrounds. Romney, President Barack Obama or their running mates seemed to visit the commonwealth weekly. Romney introduced Paul Ryan as his vice presidential pick in rallies in Hampton Roads and Ashland. The Obamas spent so much time in the state that they probably qualified to vote there. In 2008, Obama became the first Democratic presidential nominee since Lyndon Johnson to carry Virginia. In 2012, he repeated the feat.
Tim Kaine defeated George Allen in the race to succeed Sen. Jim Webb.
Sandy, school shooting
The year also will be remembered for Hurricane Sandy and a slaughter in an idyllic Connecticut town. The Carolinas and the Gulf Coast are accustomed to hurricanes. Sandy slammed into the populous Northeast. The waters surged in Manhattan and the other boroughs. The Jersey shore took a beating.
The state's political leaders failed yet again to adopt a truly comprehensive approach to transportation.
The Times-Dispatch addressed all these and more in editorials, columns by syndicated writers as well as columns by guests.
Many of these issues will return. The unexpected will happen, too. And if we cannot predict what we cannot foresee, then humanity's fate has not changed since antiquity: Push on.

Hillary is being awful quite while Bill is becoming more vocal. Are they just waiting to pick up the pieces of the Democratic Party while hoping the electorate will be enamored by the prospect of electing the first woman president and also the first and probably the only husband and wife combo? They are going to dump Obama by the middle of November and announce their intent to run in March.
Crystal ball regards,

Well, DevJam was a blast.
The idea was to talk with Debian developers about packaging components written in the Java language, and I went along as gcj maintainer. I was a little worried that the Debians wouldn't like the packaging we do with gcj in Fedora, or that they'd want to do it entirely differently. I needn't have worried, however. They were very receptive to suggestions and seem in general to be a smart and enthusiastic bunch of people.
Friday began with mjw's thing. Summary: we're 90ish percent done, but it doesn't work. Or something like that...
I can't remember what else happened on Friday.
I kicked off the proceedings on Saturday by talking about gcj and how it works on GNU/Linux systems, with particular regard to the whole precompiled database thing. Then Jeroen van Wolffelaar spoke about Debian packaging and how it works, which was very useful for me. My impression -- which might of course be incorrect -- was that Debian packaging is nicer in some ways than RPM, worse in others, and just different enough to be totally incompatible. Sigh.
We agreed, I think, to concentrate on the packages at jpackage.org. This is easy for Fedora (jpackage and Fedora are RPM based distributions) but hard for Debian. I don't know if this is going to work, but I think it's worth a try.
I'm a little worried that Fedora and Debian might be duplicating effort, particularly with regard to sanitizing packages. This sanitization is necessary because we have to be very sure that there are no unfree packages shipped by mistake. Hopefully, where one distro has sanitized a package the other will be able to use that as a base.
gbenson talked for a little while about how the rebuild-gcj-db and aot-compile-rpm scripts work, so that they can easily be used in a Debian-based system. That should work well, I think.
DevJam itself was interesting. The idea is that people turn up with computers and lock themselves in a room with a ton of food for a couple of days, hacking and talking together. There's plenty of room for people to sleep. All rather like a Scout camp, but minus the healthy outdoor activity and the singing. As a weakling I didn't do the sleeping on the floor thing, instead staying in hotel in the centre of Oldenburg. (The Hermes: very good, 60 Euros per night. Next to the railway station. Recommended.)
One thing I really got from this is how lucky I am to work on free software full time -- the attendees at DevJam were smart and enthusiastic and quite inspiring. It was an opportunity to recharge my batteries.
So, I'm glad I went and I hope to meet the Debians again. Until then, we have plenty of things to be getting on with!

Many Federal and State agencies rely on birth certificates for proof of age, proof of citizenship, identification for employment purposes, to issue benefits or other documents (e.g. driver's licenses, Social Security cards, and passports) and to assist in determining eligibility for public programs or benefits.
The National Association for Public Health Statistics and Information Systems (NAPHSIS) has developed and implemented an electronic system that allows immediate confirmation of the information on a birth certificate presented by an applicant to a government office anywhere in the nation irrespective of the place or date of issuance. Authorized Federal and State agency users via a single interface can generate an electronic query to any participating vital records jurisdiction throughout the country to verify the contents of a paper birth certificate or to request an electronic certification (in lieu of the paper birth certificate).
The EVVE project installed a new system that utilizes existing vital records information to provide an electronic match/no-match response for a vital record inquiry from any authorized state or federal user. The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) contracted with the National Association for Public Health Statistics & Information Systems (NAPHSIS) and Solutions Made Simple (SMS) to install the system software. The system software and database are hosted in the Office of Technology Service Data Center and is maintained jointly by CDPH and OTech staff.
Utilizing commercial off-the-shelf components the new system is providing the following benefits:

So glad the racing stripes are gone. The new Astros cap is a must buy.
As for the Braves cap, I get why Indian and Redskin are offensive. But Brave? How is that different from Vikings, Trojans, Spartans, Knights, Cavaliers etc? Would it be bad to have a team called the Seattle Samurai? Maybe there's something to the etymology that I don't know. I'd like it if someone could actually shed some history on the term and that specific image (I get the issues w/ Chief Wahoo) beyond just "they're racist"?

The new film by the man who cut his teeth on the excellent comedies Spanking the Monkey and Flirting with Disaster wants to have it both ways.
At times it treats the mental illnesses of its two main characters with a liberal, slightly hand-wringing concern; at others, their nuttiness is a charming source of fun.
It's typical of the unevenness of tone that is the movie's fatal flaw, though it doubtless accounts for its success in the Oscar nominations, where it's up for all of the big seven: Academy voters love handicapped heroes as long as they can have a good laugh, too.
The main character here is Pat Positano (Cooper), a history teacher emerging from a spell in court-ordered psychiatric care. The official diagnosis is bipolar disorder but when we learn what he did to get committed, it doesn't seem entirely irrational; his father, De Niro, a football fan and bookie who uses superstition as a business tool, is much crazier. Pat does his bit though, spitting the dummy at 3am when he finds out that A Farewell to Arms has a sad ending and stuff like that, all the while hoping his ex-wife will lift the restraining order and take him back.
Things change when Pat meets Tiffany Maxwell (Lawrence), a widow with a psychiatric history of her own. Each senses a kindred spirit in the other, though this doesn't play out predictably - they scrap like cat and dog, mostly, but they enter an improbable alliance, the details of which are best not spelled out.
Lawrence and Cooper spark off each other well, though her performance, full of subtle touches, shows his up somewhat. The scene in which the two of them share their medication experiences before horrified family members is a cracker.
But the script could have done with some serious trimming: it's 20 minutes too long and there are some seriously clunky moments, most of them in the Positano household. Its arc recalls Little Miss Sunshine but it has none of that screenplay's diamond-cut precision. At best, it's a gentle and undemanding crowd-pleaser; at worst, it's alarmingly banal.
Stars: 3.5/5
Cast: Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence, Robert De Niro, Jacki Weaver, Chris Tucker, Anupam Kher
Director: David O. Russell
Running time: 122 mins
Verdict: Mostly diverting, sometimes banal

Survival class held in Pine River
Pine River Police Officer Shawn Birr and local Military Surplus shop owner Rodney Helms taught students skills that could save their lives in an emergency.
Birr and Helms offered adults and kids the chance to attend their first survival class in the Pine River-Backus School Commons on Saturday, May 18. The class was dedicated to preparing those present for emergencies that could happen to them during an outing in the woods.
"Anybody who goes out, period, for any reason, should take some type of course, or read up," Helms said.
"There's tons of stuff on the Internet," Birr said.
This class taught students various important survival tips, including: always travel with other people; always tell someone where you are going and when to expect you back; walk with guns unloaded during hunting seasons; wear harnesses in deer stands; and be aware of what you have, and other tips.
"If you are lost and it's dark, stay in one spot," Birr said.
"Don't keep walking," Helms said.
"That's the worst thing you can do," Birr said. "You're going to walk out of the area where we are supposed to be looking for you. Sit down, start a fire. That's the main thing. Around here, if you get lost, you're going to have Cass County's finest looking for you, and if it's a deal where we can't find you, they will put up a State Patrol helicopter."
The class taught students the rules of three. Three loud noises such as gun shots, whistle blows or banging noises in a row are universal help signals when lost in the woods. Students also learned that when it comes to emergency needs, you can survive three minutes without oxygen, three hours under exposure, three days without water and three weeks without food.
There were only four adult students present and 19 children. John Kempf brought his son, Christos, to the class for peace of mind.
"It's kind of a confidence thing. He's starting to get old enough. I'm going to start letting him run loose in the woods by himself and I'd like him to not get panicky when he gets into one of these lost situations," Kempf said. "We also just crossed over from Webelos into Boy Scouts."
To prepare students for outdoor trips, Helms and Birr gave them all canteens with belt pouches, fire steels, thermal blankets, trigger locks for guns and emergency whistles with compass and thermometer.
They also broke the group in two and had participants practice making shelters from debris they found in the school forest, and then had them practice starting fires with fire steels, cattail fluff and dryer lint. All of this, they said, would help them to survive in the woods by preventing exposure as well as providing a method to purify water.
Helms told stories of experienced hunters and hikers who lost their lives in the woods because they got lost and didn't have a means of starting a fire, didn't know how to build sufficient shelters and had no water. All of these situations could be prevented using the knowledge and gear given to those who attended the class.
"Everybody gets turned around in the woods," Birr said. "It happens, and if you're not prepared for it to happen, things can get hairy. If you're prepared, it's not as bad as it can seem."
Birr and Helms hope to hold more survival classes in the future. Those who are interested should watch the Pine River-Backus Community Education booklet for future opportunities.

|February, 2003 - I brought snowshoes but there was enough of a boot path, I only needed them for the traverse over to the real summit. had nice weather and great views of hood.
June 09, 2004 - I did this again on a misty/rainy day. I could barely see mirror lake from it's shores. Needless to say there was no view from the end of the official trail on the lower summit. I did not go further due to the peregrine falcon habitat issue. The highlight was all the wildflowers in bloom near mirror lake. a lot of beargrass, and rhododendrons in bloom. I also did the Mirror Lake loop where I saw a few remaining skunk cabbage blossoms and some white and pink trilliums.

|Route Climbed: North Ridge up, Mirror Lake Trail down Date Climbed: March 7, 2004
|Finally knocked this one off and did both trails too. Started off as gloomy day, got to Mirror Lake in about 45 minutes, headed around to the SE side and then aimed southeast in between the main summit ridge and the east summit. Some steep snow on the way up. Made the ridge and traversed west along it to the summit. Was rewarded with great views of Hood hovering above the clouds. Had some lunch and headed back down the normal route. Followed some ski tracks down mostly but easy to get off trail as no one had gone up in a while this way. Weather kept getting better as the day went on. By the time we were back down to the lake, it was like 60 and blue skies. Great snowshoe fun!

|Route Climbed: Mirror Lake Trail Date Climbed: September 4, 2003
|Saw the mountain on my mountain biking map several weeks previously and decided to give it a try. The trail to Mirror Lake is very gradual, and in excellent shape with a minimum of obstacles.
The trail from Mirror Lake continues to the top of Tom Dick Ridge which offers a great view of the south side of Mt. Hood. It took us 35 minutes to reach the ridge from Mirror Lake. Overall, a nice hike with great views!

|Route Climbed: Mirror Lake Trail Date Climbed: 12/1/01
|We were the first ones on the mountain this day and we paid the price as there was about 6 inches of fresh powder from the night before on top of the 4 or 5 feet laid down during the previous week. It made for tough snowshoeing. There were also many trees over the trail bent over under the weight of all the snow that we had to clear to pass. We met a lone hiker on the trail who was glad to follow the three of us with our snowshoes as we laid down a nice path for him but he still ended up postholing down in the snow about 4 feet deep so he turned back. We were averaging less than a mile an hour when we were about 3 miles along the trail with 2 and 1/2 hours of daylight left and another snowstorm started so we decided to turn back a few hundred feet below the summit. Once we got back to the car, we were boxed in by cars and trucks chaining up but I was lucky to not have gotten a ticket as I did not have a Snow Park Pass. Will be back another day to knock this one off.

oh man, im sorry you had to go threw that, i had to skip toward the end cause my wife said i had a tear coming out. i do know how you feel though, i just recently lost to great dogs. my prayers are out to you and your dog.
My heart goes out to you and your companion. I'm glad your both OK.
wow im so glad you are both okay. I know how much my lab means to me so i can only imagine having to go through that.
Saying a prayer thanking God for taking you and Ace in his arms and taking care of you both. God is the great healer. Thank you for sharing. Ace is a beautiful boy!
I sure hope things are still going well for Ace and you. I couldn't get through your post without my eyes watering either. We're all bound by the love we share for our dogs and the true unselfish desire they have to please us. Thanks for sharing your experience, I'm sure it wasn't easy to write and express things so vividly. You will have probably helped prevent others from unknowingly putting their dogs into the same type situation.
Tears where streaming down my face from under my glasses and landing all over my key board...All the while I tried to be quiet and maintain composure here at work in my cubical...
It was great to read this thread so late...so I get the complete story at one time...What a GREAT ENDING! or should I say a new beginning...Hope you get many, many years with that wonderful dog!
I did a little cold weather hunting on a trip to WA this year...My girl wore an old classic dog vest and did not seam to mind the cold...The air temp was about 10 and the water was bit warmer...
Bumping to the top as a reminder with the coming of duck season and cooler temps.
Hope everyone has a great duck season. Run it to the plug!

Hey Matt, I remember this story when you first posted it!! It really brought tears to my eyes and opened up quite a bit of common sense for me. No hunt or bird is worth putting our dogs in jeopardy for. I'd imagine that your bad experience has also opened up every readers minds also. I'm so happy for you and Ace that everything came through for you guys. He's lookin' great in the picture above, and still has that cool head tilt going on for pictures, that's great!! I'm curious, it has been a couple of years since hypothermia set in on Ace, do you notice any effects from that today? I'm glad that he is still here to retrieve birds for you. Have a safe and successful duck season, Matt!! By the way, you have some awesome pictures, keep them coming!!

I did not specifically remember this story but the effect it had on me was profound. 2 Weeks ago I was hunting in N. Dakota with my older dog Diamond. She is near 11 yr old but still raring to go. However, I am beginning to see her limits better than she does. We were hunting a pothole that was very shallow, had partially froze over overnight but had open spots and lots of birds. We had to hunt the edge and were able to pull over a few birds. After a some dismal shooting by me this week, had a mallard swing by, finally took my time standing, mounting and swinging thru and appeared to stone the bird. Made a good splash just inside the thin ice past our decoys, but vision was obscured but some cattails. Sent the dog, feeling really good about my shot for once. But that feeling quickly went away after I realized that she was hunting and the bird was moving. She was breaking ice following the bird but could not keep up. I lost sight of her but could hear her as I got the lightweight boat over to go help. As i got to the area, I saw the bird sneaking into the wind thru cattails. BUT I could no longer hear my dog. Not knowing where the dog was I was not going to try to shoot the bird again and my first priority was getting the dog into the boat. I was beginning to get nervous as I had not heard her for a while and had to yell several time before she got out of the cattails and came over to get to the boat. We lost the bird, which bothers me as it appeared to be a good shot. However, I do not regret my choice. If she was 3 yrs old I would not have been so concerned, but she is almost 11.
Later I wondered why I got SO concerned, then I came here and re-read this story. So even though I did not remember, it had a strong effect on how I handled my dog in those icy conditions. Next afternoon we hunted that same pothole from inside boats, completely ice free and 65 degrees. Funny how quick it can change.

Lots of good thoughts sent Ace's way! Snakes in Florida, cold water in your area. Always something to take away our fur friends.....Give Ace a belly scratch from me when you see him.

The WDD campaign also organised a range of activities to strengthen recognition about diabetes through 'Take a Step for Diabetes'. One simple message was clear; a multitude of small and simple actions can achieve meaningful outcomes for people with diabetes and those at risk.

Getting dressed every morning doesn't have to be a boring affair. Help your favorite teen girl summon her inner glamourista with our elegant vanity tables from PBteen, and make it easy to primp and prep in the space she calls her own. Available in a range of styles, from Art Deco-inspired to statuesque and sleek, our girls' vanities make the ideal addition to any fashionable young lady's bedroom while helping her stay organized and get the most out of her space.
Vanities are unequivocally married with stylishness, so after you've taken measurements, it's important to consider the design elements you want the vanity to bring into the room. A girl who prefers a modern look can appreciate a lustrous mirrored vanity table with tapered legs, a solid wood frame and a tri-paneled mirror that folds up should she choose to use the vanity as a desk. For the young lady who errs on the side of all things traditional, a classic white wood vanity complete with bun feet, matching beveled mirror and a seven-drawer hutch creates a stately focal point in her dressing area. Whatever her preferences, it's a smart idea to supplement your girl's vanity with a few jewelry trays and canvas bins to make organizing even easier.
When space is at a premium, select one of our small vanities that's tailored to suit compact spaces. With several options measuring less than 40" wide and 21" deep, it's easy to slip one of these vanity tables into a quiet bedroom nook or a larger walk-in closet. If your teen requires a bit of versatility in her room, consider a functional desk-and-vanity combination unit that does double duty for makeup application and drafting essays. Featuring swiveling mirrors, plenty of storage drawers and even pullout keyboard trays, these polished pieces facilitate organization (and hopefully good grades too).
Of course, these petite tables are still compatible with our vanity stools, and it's easy to find a seat that coordinates with your desired vanity's kiln-dried hardwood frame and soft white finish. For a vanity-desk combination, consider a swiveling chair with casters, a supportive high back and an upholstered seat to keep your teenager comfortably ensconced during a long study session. For something a bit more fun and funky, a compact stool with neon-hued faux fur fits the bill.
With our versatile selection of vanity tables, it's easy to create a space that helps your teenager get ready to face the world. Be sure to take advantage of our handy room planner to ensure the piece she loves fits into her dream room.

23 years old male from Rajkot asked
I used to use pepsodent. My teeth were normal and healthy. Now I switched to patanjali toothpaste and suddenly I felt a type of sensitivity pain whenever I eat some very cold or hot things. What could be it? Is anything related to toothpaste?
Homeopath, Secunderabad
It may not be dew to the toothpaste. Better to visit a dentist for a checkup. It might be simple caries. Do not use a hard tooth brush. Maintain good dental hygiene for future dental protection.
24 years old female from Delhi asked
Hello Doctor, I am suffering from tooth pain due to which I am getting pain in my head on the right side. Kindly prescribe a medicine to get complete relief. I AM IN MY FIRST MONTH OF PREGNANCY.
Dentist, Kota
Please visit nearby dentist and get examined. It is advisable that you shouldn't take any medicine without informing your gynecologist in pregnancy. Another important information for you that if the condition is not an emergency or any invasive procedure is required then either wait for 2nd trimester or delivery. Keep your oral hygiene maintained. Good luck.

Can anyone suggest what is the cost of scaling and tooth cleaning and polishing. I don't have too. Much money. So kindly suggest.
Dear Lybrate User, Scaling and Polishing should not be a too much costly affair for you as the rates vary from 500-2500 INR. Some dental clinics might even do it free for you as a part of their promotional campaign. It's not at all a complicated procedure and a gentle dental clinic might do it at a very economical rate for you. If you'd be lucky enough, you might avail it for free as well! Be well.

You can opt for composite buildup for teeth. Also, veneers may be an option. If build up is small, mostly done without injections and is generally painless. Need not worry.
25 years old male from Bangalore asked
Hello Doctors, From past 4 days, I have severe wisdom tooth pain. Which looks like only half is grown and flesh is blocking it. It is paining like hell and please let me know what I need to do to get raid of this pain. Thanks for your help.
Dear Lybrate user, you seem to be suffereing from a painful and irritable tooth condition known as "Pericoronitis" which implies the inflammation of the soft tissue cover around a partially erupted crown of a tooth (wisdom tooth/third molar). It would be prudent for you to get the tooth extracted under able supervision of an expert General Dentist or a more specialized Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon. The doctor would require an X-Ray (called an Intra-Oral Peri-Apical Radiograph or may be an OPG) before deciding on the fate of the tooth. You should not delay the treatment and plan to get the tooth extracted soon after the initial infection and inflammation, considerably subside. Meanwhile do some lukewarm-saltwater mouth rinses 3-4 times/day and eat a soft and non-spicy diet. Be well!

Hi lybrate-user yours is a simple problem. But there is no home remedy. Because the yellow stains, calculus and plaque should be removed in a dental clinic by a oral hygienist or dentist. It takes only half an hour. Go for it. Happy smiling.

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.

Dentist, Thane
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.

The wisdom tooth errors anytime after 18 years. If the xray that you have taken shows the tooth in an abnormal position (other than straight upright, please have the tooth extracted by the dentist. The previous episode of pain one reason could be that there must be food particles stick between tooth and gums. If the tooth position was not normal it is likely that it will never come up straight. Please take an Xray to confirm. You can also send me a picture of the xray to help you better.

The problem your father is suffering from is known as Sleep Apnea, where pt finds difficulty in breathing during sleep due falling back of tongue into the throat.

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.

Cashton's Flock begins defense of state title
CASHTON, Wis. - Cashton Senior Dominic Flock is no stranger to the WIAA individual state wrestling tournament.
As a freshman he took 2nd at 145 pounds. "When he made it to state as a freshman it was really exciting, and then he kind of upset his way to the state finals and lost by a point," says his coach and father Philip Flock.
"That match, I've played it over a million times in my head and I still think I had him pinned," says Dominic Flock.
As a sophomore he was humbled with a 6th place finish. "I got my but kicked sophomore year, stuff didn't go my way and I didn't wrestle good enough."
But last season as a junior, Flock won the 160-pound state title in overtime. "Smart match is what I was told, as long as you wrestle smart you win. I wrestled a smart one I guess," Dominic said shortly after that victory on February 25, 2012.
"I was very proud as a coach and even prouder as a father," says Philip.18459216
This season, Flock is trying to become only the third wrestler in Cashton history to win two state titles. "That was my goal growing up, to be a two time state champion."
But the defending 160-pound state champ will be wrestling at 152-pounds this postseason. The reason is to allow practice partner Brandon Schmitz to also drop down a weight class.
"He would have had a harder time at 170, so I dropped down."
With regionals this Saturday, Flock begins a two-week journey in which he hopes to add onto his legacy.
"I think I have to work harder now that I have won a previous state title. They all remember you from your senior year so hopefully it will be another state title this year."

Feature: Film Guide
Summer Film Guide 2007
Sequels, sequels and more sequels!
By Devin D. O'Leary
It looks like the unofficial motto for this summer's movie season is, "The third time's a charm!"
Between Labor Day and Memorial Day, cineplex patrons will be greeted by a swarm of franchise films offering up their third installment. We've already had Spider-Man 3. Shrek the Third is about to open. Still on the horizon: Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, Ocean's Thirteen, The Bourne Ultimatum and Rush Hour 3. Of course, they're all trumped by Bruce Willis returning for the fourth time as Detective John McClane in Live Free or Die Hard. Then again, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix has got that beat with the fifth installment of its particular series. But if you really want to start adding up numbers, this August's release of Halloween is technically the ninth outing for Michael Myers and pals.
Perhaps the motto of this summer should be, "If you haven't seen it before, we don't got it!"

Gee is really good at this type of thing... and failed miserably. And AD Gene Smith is still AD--which is truly astounding. The whole thing, tatoos and all, was a silly mess. If one--just one--person had done his job, beginning with the players, it would have come to almost nothing.
But I never liked Tressel--he struck me as a closet jerk, whereas Urban makes absolutely no bones about it. There's something to be said for that. In fact, I don't even remember what it was, but not too long ago he did something stupid and sexist and/or homophobic (pink jerseys for underperforming players, maybe?) and he basically was like, "woops! Ya caught me being a jerk. Sorry. We'll do something else." He's still a jerk, but at least he's out there with it. I give him 5-7 years. He'll get overconfident and try to hide something at some point. Or he'll have created a bunch of monsters and their behavior will doom him, whether he tries to cover up or minimize it, or not.
Anyway, Gee proved he's no different than most.
"Let's make this go away" is the default, with "It's no big deal," "Everybody does it," and "remember we're dealing with kids" (code for "Boys will be boys") as the excuse.

While I tend to root for OSU most of the time I don't schedule my life around games. I'm not an alumni but did work for OSU for five years. The funny part is my wife is an alumni, one of the first women to march in the band for four years and the last game she marched was Woody's last game. She thinks of football as foolball.
Sports has become too important to universities.

- The Art of Spanish Variations
THE ART OF SPANISH VARIATIONS "Conde Claros" and other Spanish Vihuela Music At the end of the fifteenth century a truly national musical style grew up in Spain, especially in the music written during the reign of Ferdinand of Aragon and Isabella of Castile. They were married in 1469 and with that a new age of prosperity and stability started. The arts flourished. After the last Saracens were expelled from Granada in 1492 (the same year of the discovery of the New World by Columbus) Spain became one big catholic empire.....

Caregivers Lifeline
At some point we've heard the phrase "I've
fallen and I can't get up." This keynote
phrase first appeared in an advertisement for a
service to help elderly or infirm people get
emergency help without having to get to the
phone. Today, a number of companies offer
the Personal Emergency Response System (PERS),
which can be a tremendous help to caregivers and
loved ones.
Each system has slightly different features, but
they operate on the same principle. The
handheld remote has a radio transmitter.
When the button is pushed, it connects with a
companion unit that is tied into a land line
phone. The signal comes up at a facility,
and trained staff dispatch appropriate
This type of system requires patient
cooperation. Your loved one must be able
to understand the purpose of it and how to use
it. If your loved one has trouble
acclimating to "gadgets" or has trouble learning
new tasks, this system may be too much of a
challenge for them. However, because of
its simplicity, someone with mild learning
hurdles can be successful in using it.
For caregivers, knowing that their loved one has
autonomy in moving about the home while still
being able to call for help can be a stress
The company you select will have different
service options and commensurate pricing.
When selecting a company, caregivers can "build"
a plan that meets their needs.
Before calling and researching, do a little
"dreaming" about the ideal plan. You may
know your budget limitations, but don't cut
costs unnecessarily. Make a list of the
various options that will put your mind at rest.
Examples of options are:
Prescription reminders
Nationwide and local service
Advanced options on the companion unit (like
automatic dialing)
Two-way voice communication
Don't be sales pressured into in-home meetings
or signing contracts if you are still comparing
plans. Some companies offer trial periods, but
may limit choices. If the limits imposed don't
meet your caregiving needs, move on to another
To provide customers with a variety of financial
options is one thing, but when plans appear too
complex, it may be a red flag. Start with
companies recommended by local physicians,
senior centers and individuals who have used
those companies.
If your loved one is on Medicare or Medicaid, a
PERS will not likely be covered. Private insurances
also have their rules about coverage. Check with
your loved one's insurance provider(s) to get the
most current information, including whether partial
or full coverage is possible if a Letter of Medical
Necessity would be issued. Consult your tax advisor
to learn whether it can be deducted as a medical
expense. In some cases, working with a social
service agency may be the key. Finding the right
agency is a subject to discuss with your loved one's
caseworker. If there is no caseworker help
available, allow yourself to do some Internet
searching for agencies that help individuals with
your loved one's condition. Advocate services abound
in each county, and searching county Web sites
provide good information.

I would love to be a campaign copy writer for the Democrats the next two elections. The Republicans are the Gang That Can't Shoot Straight. The Grand Obstructionist Party sucked in the Tea Party crowd before they found out those folks don't play well with others. Now they are reaping what they sowed. Gonna miss you GOPpers.
I don't want to feed an ugly dog!
If you're a football coach, do you ask the other team's coach for advice on how to beat his team? I don't know a lot about the technical aspect of football, but as I understand it the coaches watch game films of the opposing team, and then try to figure out where they can counter the other teams strengths and exploit their weaknesses.
So, maybe Rs shouldn't listen too well to how Ds and the MSM (who have pretty much supported the Ds in their agenda) tell them the way to win elections? Cruz puts it more bluntly:
He said that Republicans taking advice of the mainstream media is a "little bit like taking healthcare advice from Dr. Kevorkian."They have said Republicans need to moderate to win elections, and Cruz obliterated that strategy as one that has cost Republicans election after election and was antithetical to how Ronald Reagan ran his campaigns.
"You guys pushing for a stand on Obamacare--that's risky. No, no, no, no... Just keep your heads down and we'll win races," Cruz said of what GOP consultants are advising candidates before the 2014 elections.
He then emphatically declared, "That's not how you win races."After saying it would be a "good start" to dump all of the establishment Washington strategists into the ocean, Cruz pointed out that the "least bad alternative" approach to elections cost Republicans in 2006, 2008, and 2012.
"Shock about shocks, we got our clocks cleaned," Cruz said of the "keeping you head down" strategy favored by the Republican elite.
He said Reagan never said, "I am almost exactly like Jimmy Carter! Except I'm imperceptibly teeny-weeny more conservative..."
He reminded the audience that Reagan said:
President Carter and I have a different visions of this country and our future. If you believe in freedom, in standing on your own feet, if you believe that government is not the solution, government is the problem, then stand with me and that is how we saw an epic transformation.
When you stop to think about it, aren't the Ds and the MSM encouraging Rs to do the same things that have kept them losing elections? Do we really believe that those entities want to help Rs win? I think they just want them to "cooperate" ... so that the Ds can then repeat the mantra, "we will not negotiate" and the Rs will fall into line.And he emphasized that the "biggest lie in all of politics is that Republicans are the party of the rich" and urged Republicans to make the case to Hispanics and African Americans about how the free market is the best way for economic mobility and how terribly the Obama administration's policies--like Obamacare--have disproportionately hurt poor Americans.
Romney had a hard time in 2012 because his MA health care program wasn't much different from O-care, and the Ds used that effectively against him. I think Romney had character and would have made a good POTUS, but playing nice guy with people who can lie without blinking an eye, simply doesn't work.
I don't think that the opposition should lower themselves to lying, but they shouldn't allow lying & corruption to go unchallenged.
We may remember that Reagan lost the battle when he supported Goldwater. He lost again in his own first attempt at the R nomination. In the end, though, he won the war. I never thought Reagan was the most brilliant POTUS, and he certainly made mistakes during his presidency ... but in the end, history acknowledged that he made a difference in many positive ways. Not every foreign leader may have "liked" him, but he earned their respect.
Cruz is NOT Reagan ... but I think that Reagan might have liked him. If Cruz perseveres through the battles he may lose (we can say he lost the battle in the CR and debt ceiling), Reagan could relate to that. The positive faith in the grass roots of the American people is something one also heard from Reagan.

Rand Paul is also another with character, intelligence, and good ideas.
I have introduced a constitutional amendment stating: "Congress shall make no law applicable to a citizen of the United States that is not equally applicable to Congress." This amendment also contains two provisions that apply that same principle to the executive branch and judicial branch of the federal government.
