Painting an engine!
Hey guys... my engine is already painted orange.... i did it in November when I put a 350 in my car.... but some has peeled off one of my valve covers and..... after consulting a friend's father who did his whole engine while it was in his truck..... he's restored a 72 Chevy Pickup and before that did a body-off with a 66 Nova..... anyway.... he uses primer on the engine before painting it.... I brought this up with my grandfather, who is 82 years old and has been a mechanic since he was 20.... He said that's rediculous and you should never use primer on an engine.... he said he's never heard of anybody ever doing that before.... and then went into stories about painting engines in the 30's and 40's....... lol..
So anyway... does anyone here use primer when they paint an engine?
No Primer
Nope, I dont use it either. POR-15 and Eastwood both make nice engine paint kits. The basics of them are a clean surface. Many cleaners leave a residue, so they provide cleaners that address that problem. Both of those kits allow for being applied with a small brush, which is included in the kit.
I have tanked motors after painting them with the POR product and it stayed right on there. Also, I believe that both products cure better once the block is heated up.
Been discussed several times on the board. Like Tom said, cleanliness is the key, no matter what you use. I normally powder coat my engines but those that I paint, I use etching primer, hi-build primer, & BC/CC urethane, just like a body. Holds up to heat great, grease, & gas & looks like a million.

Nutraceuticals labeling: products designed to improve health and well-being have created a healthy, diverse, yet complex niche of the labeling industry.nutraceutical nu·tra·ceu·ti·cal
A food or naturally occurring food supplement thought to have a beneficial effect on human health.

1. To arrange or organize according to class or category.
2. To designate (a document, for example) as confidential, secret, or top secret. foods, beverages and supplements that provide medical or health benefits to consumers, "including the prevention and treatment of disease." The term is a marrying of the words "nutrition" and "pharmaceutical." And because the types of products are so varied--there are foods, drinks, powders, pills, capsules, and more--the packaging of nutraceuticals takes on many forms. Thus, a niche of the labeling industry has developed, and like the products they are designed to brand, inform, and communicate a message about, their labeling and packaging is diverse, complicated, and always evolving.

There are a lot of players, and just as the product range is extremely broad, so are the promotional, packaging and labeling strategies manufacturers and converters use to entice consumers.
An ambiguous business
A nutraceutical's label takes on the same goals as the labels for food and beverages F&B is a common abbreviation in the United States and Commonwealth countries, including Hong Kong. F&B is typically the widely accepted abbreviation for "Food and Beverage," which is the sector/industry that specializes in the conceptualization, the making of, and delivery of foods. , as well as pharmaceuticals. In these markets, the label serves two purposes--enticing the consumer via pictures and words, as well as providing information regarding directions and ingredients. Nutraceutical labels serve these purposes while keeping within the legal guidelines guidelines,

After the 1980 Challenge Cup final he was awarded the Lance Todd Trophy for his man-of-the-match performance. , author of Nutraceuticals: A Guide for Healthcare Professionals, "It is often thought that nutraceuticals have to occupy a narrow strip of legislative ground between pharmaceuticals and food, but in reality their position is much more complex." Lockwood points out the confusing, vague nature of nutraceutical classification. "Many nutraceuticals are derived from plants or foods, and marketing usually follows legal status, medicines and non-medicines being clearly separate. Public perception may involve little distinction between any of these entities, except when legal status affects availability. Most people are guided by the marketing: nutraceuticals usually appear to be packaged and labeled as if they were medicines," Lockwood writes, adding that companies marketing nutraceuticals cannot advertise specific medical claims for their products without a medical license. "When launching a new product they have the option of either not doing any research at all or researching it thoroughly and possibly obtaining a patent ... To bring a medicine to market can take about 10 years and cost US$0.8-1.7 billion, but to market an unlicensed nutraceutical can take a fraction of this time and money." With that in mind, it makes sense to learn that most nutraceuticals "are openly on sale and available via the internet," according to Lockwood.
Without much red tape preventing products from reaching the marketplace, there is a correlating trend. Peter Renton, director of business development, Lightning Labels, Denver, CO, USA, says, "One of the trends we're seeing today is more startups entering the field. I think some people view it as a 'get-rich-quick' scheme. With the economy the way it is, we're see a number of small one-off orders, where people are trying to get something going but aren't able to follow through for whatever reason."
Renton talks about the different types of nutraceuticals players Lightning Labels works with. "We have a number of nutraceutical customers who, despite the economic environment we are in, are simply not that concerned with price. They need their labels in a hurry, and they want to be able to change their designs very quickly. Overall, we see two kinds of companies in this industry these days. There are the reputable rep·u·ta·ble
Having a good reputation; honorable.
repu·ta·bil players who have a long history and order regularly, and then there are those people who are in it to make a quick buck. I think there are more of these 'fly-by-night' people now than there have been in the past. We absolutely insist on payment up front before we even start working on an order, because it is so easy to get burned."

"Our customers run the gamut from sports nutrition Sports nutrition is applied in most sports training, however it is most dominant in strength sports (for example weight lifting and bodybuilding) and endurance sports (for example cycling, running, triathlon). , to traditional herbs and vitamins, to more clinical items.

The more traditional vitamin company may want a nicely printed four-color process four-color process: see printing. label on a high gloss material. The clinical type will usually go for a two-color, very simple label that's all business," he says.
Earl also points to distinct trends he's picked up on among Overnight's nutraceuticals customers. "The first is sampling. Many of our clients are trying to attract new business through sampling. We print packets on flexible packaging material, which allows our clients to have samples packed by a co-packer. Then, when they go to a trade show or a retail store, they hand out packets that are printed exactly like the label on their bottle. It helps connect the consumer with their product.
"We are also seeing many of our clients migrate to shrink sleeves. It allows a client to use more of the bottle to sell their product due to the 360[degrees] capability of a shrink sleeve label. Since the FDA is requiring more information all the time, the sleeve frees up room for the additional requirements and more graphics. Additionally, the sleeve can be used in lieu of Instead of; in place of; in substitution of.

2. as using one of our larger competitors," Earl says.
Related to an increase in shrink applications is the trend of certain nutraceuticals products moving from solid to liquid form. "Many of our customers that supply vitamins are also starting to supply them in liquid form. Our clients are incorporating specific vitamins into energy drinks and smoothies, and most of these clients are using shrink sleeves on their bottles instead of a traditional pressure sensitive label.
"The third trend we're seeing is in 'buy one get one free' or in cross marketing promotions. The difficult economic times have pushed our customers into using shrink sleeves to offer special discounts to consumers or to cross market new products with existing ones. This tactic is helping many of our clients clear out their existing inventory and open up their cash flow," Earl says.
Peter Renton points out that there are a variety of constructions and label types Lightning Labels are producing. "We do a lot of muscle building and protein products, herbal herbal, early botanical book containing descriptions and illustrations of herbs and plants with their properties, chiefly those qualities that made them useful as medicines or condiments.

Most of these labels are designed to a 'formula'--supplement facts on the right side, a graphic, logo and product name in the middle, and on the left an explanation of the product's benefits," Renton says, adding that it's here where the very small type can be printed.
Lightning Labels is an all-digital printer. With a lot of type often being necessary in making nutraceutical labels compliant, Renton points out the advantages of going digital in this niche. "The big advantage of digital is the ability to change the label design quickly and easily.

"Resealable labels is a big trend with nutraceuticals. Because there are so many requirements for these products, either the labels have to be larger or the logos smaller. Our resealable labels is a way of accommodating all of the information. This is definitely the biggest trend I've seen in the nutraceuticals market," he says.

Betsy Hitchcock, of Hitchcock Design, Boulder, CO, USA, designed the Zola labels. She talks about some of the factors she considered when drawing up the Zola concept. "As with all packaging, the first objective is to be seen in the shelf environment: Something must invite the consumer's eye to notice the product amongst the vast array of options. Then, the label must clearly communicate product benefits or contents. The nutraceutical world is complex and confusing and a strong label must communicate clearly and directly. This is the first step towards earning trust from consumers with health concerns," Hitchcock says, adding, "Simplicity and authenticity are important in terms of design style.

Nutraceuticals consumers are often proponents of improving one's health and well-being via the use of natural products. Herbal remedies, plant extractions, and a host of "functional foods" are all examples nutraceuticals. It seems that many of these consumers, and the retailers that provide nutraceuticals are also environmentally conscious, and sustainable packaging is a driver in this market segment.
Theresa Anderson, president of Organico, a health food grocery and cafe in Ramsey, NJ, USA, says that environmental concerns are a factor when selecting products to stock her store's shelves with. "To me, as a retailer, I try and purchase products that take sustainability into account. I choose products from companies that are using environmentally friendly Environmentally friendly, also referred to as nature friendly, is a term used to refer to goods and services considered to inflict minimal harm on the environment.[1] materials, including the container and the label."
Purchasing isn't the only area where a retailer can provide insight. Anderson also talks about what she's observed as a branding trend, and how it gets incorporated into how she presents products to her customers. She says that when stocking shelves, Organico uses a strategy called "blocking." She explains: "Some manufacturers have a variety of products that all use the same color scheme, and we'll place all of those same-colored products next to each other on the shelf, creating a 'block' of the same color. These products can be very confusing to consumers, and I think this helps in eliminating some of that confusion," she says, adding that products with a shiny, glossy appeal make a nice presentation, so long as it maintains a "natural" look.
According to Anderson, the success of a nutraceutical product comes down to the product itself. However, she feels that there are some products that move more than others, and it's due in part to an effective label.
Shahana Jahangir, product analyst for Nerac, a research and advisory firm headquartered in Tolland, CT, USA, provides insight into the world of nutraceuticals labeling that both converters and end users alike can benefit from. "Packaging plays a great role in a consumer's decision to buy a food product for many reasons, but especially health. There are several aspects of a label that come into play including branding, graphics, and whether or not the packaging is biodegradeable," she says.
Jahangir discusses specific examples of some of the attributes of an effective nutraceuticals label, and the key role that symbolism Symbolism
In art, a loosely organized movement that flourished in the 1880s and '90s and was closely related to the Symbolist movement in literature. In reaction against both Realism and Impressionism, Symbolist painters stressed art's subjective, symbolic, and decorative plays. She says that a company's logo, the colors, and the various symbols used are instrumental in creating an effective label. In addition, the label's design should appeal to the target demographic. For example, dietary and muscle building supplements should be gender specific. Janaghir stresses the importance of incorporating these concepts in a label should not be overlooked. She recently attended SIAL Montreal 2009, a food industry tradeshow where nutraceuticals labeling was a specific focus, and the various logos, symbols, and colors of a label were discussed.
According to Jahanghir, as discussed at SIAL Montreal, some of the common symbols and their meanings include:
* A vegetable logo or vegetation reflects health.
* Berries denote de·note

Interhealth Nutraceuticals, Benicia, CA, USA, a manufacturer of nutritional ingredients, makes for an insightful resource when trying to determine which branding and labeling methodologies most effectively sell nutraceuticals.
"While packaging is usually what initially attracts consumers, label content is what educates consumers about a product's benefits and is what ultimately convinces them to purchase a product. An effective nutraceutical label is clean, in that it provides key information necessary for a consumer to make a quick purchase decision. The front or primary display panel is often the best place to make unique and attention-grabbing claims, but manufacturers need to be careful not to overstate product benefits," says CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. Paul Dijkstra. "A crowded label may be too confusing or seem unrealistic. Clear and effective communication is important in the creation of effective nutraceutical labels."
Dijkstra says that in addition to providing a clear, attractive space, a label should communicate a concise but informative message designed to make the consumer feel comfortable with the product. A way of doing this, he suggests, is to refrain from being too scientific, and to make sure that only reasonable results are promised. The message should also be positive, include specific, value-added information while appealing to the target demographic.
According to Dijkstra, branding is a major component of an effective nutraceutical label. "Branding plays a key role in labeling and packaging in that it adds value by providing consumers with instantly recognizable cues to help with the purchase decision making process. It allows them to easily search for further information about particular ingredients. For instance, proprietary branded ingredients have the ability to add value to a product and are recognized symbols of quality for many consumers. Offering value-added branded ingredients is a way to set your company apart from the others," he says.
Dijkstra notices a clear trend toward an increase in branding, particularly among private label or store brands. "I would definitely say branding will continue as a way to differentiate oneself in the marketplace. Manufacturers are willing to pay for quality and the visibility a branded ingredient delivers. Branded ingredients are often supported by years of science--a powerful tool in promoting a product. In addition, we will see an increase in displaying a specific branded ingredient on the front of a package. Another trend we are seeing is innovative package design with exciting graphics and bold colors, unusually shaped bottles as well as a lot of other ideas that help products stand out on the shelves," he says.
Nutricap Labs, Farmingdale, NY, USA, is a particularly insightful resource on nutraceuticals labeling in that it's a full-service nutraceuticals manufacturer, and maintains it's own in-house labeling and packaging department. The company manufactures capsules, liquids, creams and powders, while providing an array of packaging capabilities including label design and its own on-site flexographic label printing department.
Jason Provenzano, executive VP, emphasizes the importance of branding, but says that it's a real balancing act. "For customers who are just entering the nutraceuticals industry, company branding is secondary to product branding. Our decade-long experience has taught us that your company name is only as good as the product inside the package, and strategically speaking, it's more effective to build a customer base around a product, not a company. Client's who have established themselves should focus on retention-based company branding, which is inherently superior for getting a customer to try other products in the line," he says.
Provenzano says that in the labeling of nutraceuticals, often times space is at a premium, and agrees that logos and pictures are effective tools. "Label real estate is precious; we have found that icons are an effective way to communicate product benefits and credentials CREDENTIALS, international law.

If the state or prince receive the minister, he can be received only in the quality attributed to him in his credentials. using a small amount of space. A picture can communicate a thousands words and this is advantageous when space is tight," he says, adding, that in terms of actual design, he's noticed "a move towards a more medicinal medicinal /me·dic·i·nal/ (mi-dis´in-il) having healing qualities; pertaining to a medicine.

"We are also finding that our clients are leaning towards eco-friendly packaging solutions to show they are environmentally responsible by developing labels with uncoated stocks and inks."
Converter Chris Freddo also sees his nutraceuticals customers, in particular, looking to go green, and says his company's expanded content labels "is kind of an indirect form of sustainable packaging." He explains: "Our resealable labels create a situation where customers are able to do away with their product's cartons, and we're seeing a lot of nutraceuticals companies looking to promote their minimized packaging."
Growth market
The nutraceuticals niche of the labeling industry has become a reliable one for certain converters, but some may question its growth potential, particularly in the wake of the current economic downturn. So, all things considered All Things Considered (ATC) is a news radio program in the United States, broadcast on the National Public Radio network. It was the first news program on the network, and is broadcast live worldwide through several outlets. , is it a growth market?
"Yes, absolutely. Nutraceuticals are growing rapidly," says Shahana Jahanghir of Nerac. "The nutraceuticals market experienced unprecedented growth after the passage of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act in 1994. In the US, the market's growth is somewhat recent, but in Japan and in Europe, it has been existing for many years. It is interesting that the consumers are willing to pay for more for nutraceuticals rather than food itself."
Jahanghir refers to the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA DSHEA Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (US legislation) ) of 1994. The passage of this legislation in the US has proven to be a major catalyst for the growth of the US nutraceuticals market.
Paul Dijkstra discusses the impact DSHEA has had on the market: "DSHEA gives the FDA primary jurisdiction over the labeling of dietary supplements. It allows dietary supplement labels to provide consumers with helpful information in the form of "structure/function claims." These types of claims describe how the product may affect the structure or function of the body or general well being. DSHEA requires that manufacturers have substantiation that these label claims are truthful and not misleading. The FDA looks for reliable scientific evidence--well-controlled clinical studies showing a significant effect. Since the manufacturer is responsible for ensuring the accuracy and truthfulness of these claims; the law requires that the labels include a disclaimer stating that the FDA has not evaluated the claims."
In short, nutraceutical products can exist without having to conduct clinical trials. The "structure/function" claims required by DSHEA, can be as vague as "Vitamin A vitamin A

[Middle English, from Old English wyrt; see maintains emotional well being," so long as there's a disclaimer printed on the label that explains that the product has not been evaluated by the FDA, and it is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease.
While legislation regarding nutraceuticals has opened the door, allowing for growth as well as the emergence of numerous start-up companies start-up company
A new business. , it remains to be seen how the current economic downturn will effect the industry.
Paul Dijkstra feels that today's economy could impact dietary supplement formulation and marketing in the coming year. He says, "In times of economic challenges some manufacturers may lean toward replacing premium ingredients with generic ones in their supplement formulations. Some may opt to restrict marketing campaigns and advertising to control costs. However, some market research analysts have indicated that consumers tend to pay greater attention to their health in times of economic woes. The mantra mantra (măn`trə, mŭn–), in Hinduism and Buddhism, mystic words used in ritual and meditation. A mantra is believed to be the sound form of reality, having the power to bring into being the reality it represents. is from treatment to prevention--consumers do everything they can to stay healthy to avoid costly doctor visits or medication. They consider taking supplements and consuming functional foods and beverages a better preventative choice. This would make it even more important for manufacturers to make sure they maintain high product standards and continue to communicate to consumers the benefits of their products."
Jason Provenzano of Nutricap Labs also thinks that the economy's struggles could have a positive impact on growth. "The nutraceuticals industry is stronger than it's ever been before, growing nearly 8 percent in the fourth quarter of 2008. Unfortunately, as more people lose their jobs they're also losing their health insurance. Therefore, in an effort to avoid expensive doctor visits, people are stocking up on vitamins and supplements. This has led to a concept that The New York Times recently described as 'consumer-directed health care'--the idea that people will take more preventative measures if their insurance deductibles are set higher. Even after the economy begins to rebound, we're confident that consumers will still make vitamins and supplements a part of their daily regimen regimen /reg·i·men/ (rej´i-men) a strictly regulated scheme of diet, exercise, or other activity designed to achieve certain ends.
1. ," he says.
A characteristic of the nutraceuticals industry involves the continual emergence of new ingredients that capture the attention of the health-conscious consumer. "Trends are always changing," Provenzano says. "Today's unknown product is tomorrow's next big thing. The acai berry is a perfect example. Fifty years ago, no one had ever heard of acai or its nutritional benefits; today it's one of the most sought after dietary supplements in the world."
Innovations in technology and communication also play a part in the market's growth. "One outlet we've found that is already contributing to the growth of the nutraceuticals industry is online social media outlets such as Twitter A Web site and service that lets users send short text messages from their cellphones to a group of friends. Launched in 2006, Twitter (www.twitter.com) was designed for people to broadcast their current activities and thoughts. , Blogger, Facebook and YouTube. These forums and blogs enable people from all over the world to communicate their thoughts about products, as well as the results they achieved from using certain products," Provenzano says.
From a label converter's perspective, having versatile capabilities is an important feature for those that want to capitalize on Cap´i`tal`ize on`
v. t. 1. To turn (an opportunity) to one's advantage; to take advantage of (a situation); to profit from; as, to capitalize on an opponent's mistakes s>. the potential of the nutraceuticals market. Don Earl of Overnight Labels says, "We've done well in the marketplace because we have an extremely broad offering. We print shrink sleeves, flexible packaging, and traditional pressure sensitive labels while focusing on quality and customer care. Because of our capability and willingness to embrace new technology, we have created a niche in this industry, and it's one that has not always existed."

Warshaw's contract
TORRINGTON — Here's a look at the finer points of the contract Warshaw signed with the city Feb. 4.
The spending, which is being funded by one-quarter of the sales tax revenue the city received when the state increased the sales tax in 2011, is being matched by the Department of Economic and Community Development. The matching funding will pay for microloans for business owners to improve storefronts and provide money to dress up vacant storefronts.

LOS ANGELES – Neither was healthy enough to play, although one had a healed Achilles' tendon and the other was still trying to get there.
And with Kobe Bryant back on the practice court over the weekend, it appears he is close to joining the Detroit Pistons' Chauncey Billups among the handful of players to return from the injury.
That was welcome news to Billups, who tore his Achilles' in 2012 while with the Clippers and was limited to 30 games last season and knows how hard recovering can be.
"It's impressive for sure," Billups said. "You don't really expect nothing less from certain people. He's one of those people."
Billups sat out Sunday's game against the Lakers because of tendinitis in his knee, but he is averaging 22 minutes per game and has started each of the seven games in which he has played. However, Billups has been limited to a career-low 5.3 points per game.
The Lakers remain unsure when Bryant will return, with Coach Mike D'Antoni saying "He's got a ways to go."
Bryant shot Sunday, a day after participating in a five-man drill without defense at practice. The Lakers have a light week, with four days off before facing Golden State on Friday.
That, D'Antoni said, would be an ambitious target for Bryant's return, even though he's back at practice.
"You guys are really pushing it," D'Antoni told reporters. "I don't think so, but I would say that's very premature."
While all signs from Bryant his rehab have been positive, there remains much uncertainty, and any internal timeline is subject to a number of variables.
"You're dealing with, is he sore today?" D'Antoni said. "Is there a setback tomorrow?"
Still when the time comes for Bryant's return to the court, few have more confidence in Bryant — or a foundation for that expectation — than Billups.
"Everyone heals differently," Billups said, "but he's a hard worker. So I don't see him having any residual problems when he comes back."
Rotation matters
Through 12 games, it seems the only thing that will get D'Antoni to tighten his rotation is injuries. At the start of the season, six players were expect to see consistent time off the bench. When Steve Nash went down, that number became five.

Bow Pulpit for Catalina 38
I called Catalina a while back and kind of got none in stock. You know the Sparkman Stephens design was a limited production so maybe they did not build a bunch of the spares like other models. The limited production and the fact that the boat will not back down and the bow swings in a light breeze may have caused several spares to be used up. Catalina however has provided me with excelent customer service even though my boat is 25 years old they gave me tech specs on my rigging and several other parts including some blue prints they dug up.So Denr I am not sure what yor reply means. I had a Catalina thirty which lost a mast in a hurricane and they had one on a truck and delivered in two weeks coast to coast.

Productive? Yeah, I don't mean this in the empty capitalist citizenry way — a "productive member of society" — but in the sense that Smith and Mapplethorpe's love for each other supported their life's goals, even if said goals weren't exactly clear from the start. So we had Mapplethorpe the artist and Smith the poet. As time went by Smith encouraged Robert's art (both constructions and photograph) while Mapplethorpe pushed the idea that Patti should gain exposure for her writing through readings. Of course, this led to Patti's reading with Lenny Kaye on guitar, which in turn sent her down the road to her destiny as rock & roll poet.
What struck me in reading Just Kids was Patti's devotion to her craft, even amidst the debauchery of the times. The 1970's and the Max's Kansas City scene seemed at odds with the lady poet who did not initially indulge in drugs or drink. While all of that bad craziness whorled around her, she managed to remain something of an observer. I suppose that's what a writer does.
I was completely unaware of Smith's story when she hit it big with "Because The Night." All I know is that the music on Easter had an open and raw quality that was somehow unsettling. Being a little slow on the uptake at the time, I wasn't always sure what Patti was getting at with her words, but their feral electricity was undeniable.
The sad truth is that there is no happy ending in the story of Patti Smith's muses. Robert Mapplethorpe died from AIDS in 1989. Smith's husband, guitarist Fred "Sonic" Smith, passed away in 1994. Somehow, Smith survived all of this and continues to create. To me, that's the final inspiration.

Forum: Social Entropy++He'd never heard of Zeitgeist
Part II, entitled "All the World's a Stage," portrays the events of September 11th as either orchestrated or allowed to happen by criminal elements within the United States government in order to generate mass fear, initiate and justify the War on Terror, provide a pretext for the curtailment of civil liberties, and produce economic gain.

Many children from low-income families may not be in a position to receive regular dental care. These kids may develop poor oral health that will affect their overall well-being. For example, tooth pain can cause problems with sleeping and eating, and individuals with damaged teeth may suffer socially.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that nearly 50 percent of American children between the ages of 12 and 15 are affected by tooth decay.The advent of National Children's Dental Health Month (NCDHM) highlights the need for parents to help their children establish positive attitudes towards oral healthcare.If parents can instill a sense of the importance of preventive oral care techniques, their kids may develop consistent, healthy habits.In honor of NCDHM, the American Dental Association (ADA) has started a few initiatives on healthy smiles and the need for daily brushing and flossing. The ADA is providing a wealth of information online for parents and teachers. By visiting the organization's website, they can familiarize themselves with the organization's basic recommendations for preventing instances of tooth decay, including brushing twice daily, flossing at least once a day and eating a diet low in refined sugars.The ADA is also holding the Give Kids a Smile events nationwide, which provide free dental screenings, cleanings and fillings to underserved populations. An estimated 45,000 dentists will help treat nearly 400,000 children. For more information on discount dental plans call 1-888-632-5353.

Trend ReportsDec 28, 2011
March of the Penguins
With winter runways rampant in feminine tuxedos, the trend is clear: jacket required.
Story: Jill Manoff
Photos: Carmen Troesser
Borrowing from the boys is nothing new, but this season, the trend takes a more
formal turn. From the glam-rock blazers that debuted at Balmain and Isabel Marant
to the elegant suiting introduced by Michael Kors and Yves Saint Laurent (the
originator of Le Smoking), winter's choice outerwear seems inspired by menswear—
more specifically, its black-tie staple. The take? Suit yourself! Indulge in
designers' overwhelming tux love by shopping updated versions of the traditional
dinner jacket. Luxe textures, unexpected colors, cropped cuts and edgy embellishments
define today's most covetable styles. Dress them up (with matching pants),
or dress them down (with jeans and a tee), and don't hesitate to add to your growing
collection; it is homme work, after all.

Cerberus: Auto Bailout's Other Beneficiary
Cerberus issued a lengthy statement Friday, arguing that it cannot contribute more money to Chrysler because it already had to get a waiver to invest 7.5% of its $27 billion. The firm said it has told its investors it would not put more than 5% of its assets in any single investment.
"Cerberus is not a deposit-taking institution that can act as an ATM machine for its portfolio companies," it says.
Additionally, Cerberus says it will invest the first $2 billion of Chrysler Financial profits back into the financing arm's parent automaker. Cerberus says the funding will back up the $4 billion loan Chrysler is getting from the government as part of its rescue package for the domestic auto industry.
But these steps are not going to be nearly enough to counter the impression that Cerberus, a $27 billion firm with stakes in a wide range of companies and a roster of influential executives such as former Treasury Secretary John Snow, is getting an undeserved handout.Bill Cohan, a former investment banker who wrote a history on Lazard (LAZ) and is wrapping up a book on the collapse of Bear Stearns, notes that Daimler wrote the value of its stake in Chrysler to zero, suggesting Cerberus' is also worthless. He expects its investment in GMAC is also near worthless. "Their little foray into Detroit at the height of the market is a total cropper from my perspective," he says. "Calls by people in government to ask them to step up and put more money in is just so much theater and showboating." But while Cohan doesn't see any point in asking Cerberus for more money, neither does he think the automakers should have received any from the government . "Chapter 11 bankruptcy is an option here," he says. "Just because you file for Chapter 11 doesn't mean everyone loses their jobs. You can wipe out the ridiculous healthcare and pension benefits and paying people for not working and then maybe these companies can start to think about being competitive again. That's what Chapter 11 is for. Otherwise we're just propping up and rewarding bad behavior."
