Why Join the Veritas Health Team?
Veritas Health is a leader in building award-winning websites around specific health issues that are important to millions of patients and doctors. Spine-health.com is the most visited back pain website in the world (75% market share), and our newest site – Arthritis-health.com – is growing rapidly. We also launched two new websites, Sports-health.com and Osteoporosis-health.com, in 2014 that address additional popular health topics.
We are always looking for talented people, and we sometimes create a position to fit the person. We are currently actively recruiting for the following positions:
A few things about our company that we feel set us apart:
- Growth. With health issues rapidly increasing due to our evolving population, so does demand for our websites. Our traffic is growing at a double digit clip annually and is up over 5 million monthly unique visitors and 15 million pageviews. Our goal for each of our websites is to make each a leader in its respective health vertical and help as many people as possible get the information they need to make an informed decision about their specific health situation. This strategy will support our goal to continue to grow the business at a double-digit pace – and continue our revenues growing 20%-40% per year as they have for the past 3 years in a row. In fact, Veritas Health was recognized by INC 5000 in 2014 as one of the fastest growing private companies in America (and we have the fancy plaque on the wall to prove it).
- Mission. The company started in 1999 as a way to provide unbiased, understandable information to people who need to make important decisions about a health issue – in this case, about often debilitating back or neck pain. True to that mission, we accomplish this still today by investing heavily in content development the best way we know how – by publishing articles, videos, definitions, and more that are: originally written, more in-depth than most other websites, non-commercial, blind peer-reviewed by leading doctors (just like a medical journal does), and then well SEO'd so that the search engines can find our content and get it in front of as many people who need it as possible. We believe this recipe is working, as evidenced by our search engine rankings, our content awards, and the fact that 18% of the site's visitors come directly through a recommendation from their doctor.
- Culture. We have a group of talented folks (some quiet, some not so quiet) who are committed to results. We post our goals on the wall for all to see, and aim to hire smart and productive people with a "can-do" attitude who figure out how to get things done. There's daily access to senior management and the opportunity to take on a variety of roles. We are all totally committed to consistently achieving the most productive 40-hour work week in the industry! Here, you really can get home in time to hit the boxing gym, do intramural flag football, brew your own beer, take your kid to swim practice, and the many other things our actual employees have time to do.
The key criteria for success in our company are intelligence, problem-solving skills and attitude, aptitude for learning, self-motivated work habits, and a strong attention to detail.
In exchange for their passion and dedication to quality work, Veritas Health offers employees a positive and energetic team-oriented environment, a competitive salary and benefits package (including 401k match and company pays 90% of medical insurance premiums), normal work hours, a stable and profitable company, and the opportunity to expand your technical and business skills in a supportive environment. We have offices in Deerfield and downtown Chicago, IL.
If this sounds like a place you'd like to work, you can:
- Submit your resume in Word or PDF format to us at email@example.com. Put the position title(s) of interest in the subject line. We will respond if you do these things. Thank you!

Mark Wallis Design – my new online store
The Vibes has been a little quiet lately, as I went off into the world of E-Commerce to forge an empire. Or set up an online store, depending on how you look at it and how much coffee you've had. I'm selling my artwork in the form of colour prints and greetings cards on my new site which features the best of my photography, graphic design and painting. It's very exciting to see the orders finally coming in after months of hard work, so I declare this shop well and truly OPEN! Step this way http://www.markwallisdesign.com
2014: Sun, Success and a Sorceress
2012/13 were disasterous for me. But this year has been the charm. I saw Kate Bush live: the musical sorceress put on a show in London that blew us away in September – 'There are no words' said Panos. We travelled to Mount Olympus in sunny Greece and saw the most beautiful village in the world, Colmar in France. I exhibited my artwork in Manchester and London, set up my own online store and got a record 3,800 likes for my Tales of the City artwork via Armistead Maupin on Facebook. When I put it all together, I feel like Tigger.
Launching Mark Wallis Design took a lot of time and effort, but I also managed to remix Kate Bush and Goldfrapp, get back into oil painting, and meet Armistead Maupin! I might move slowly but I never keep still – Happy New Year to all.
Pirates Ahoy!
This week I had two videos pulled from YouTube. People were claiming to be me and trying to get credit for my remix and the little movie I made to go with it. I was going to leave them to it, flattered that they liked my stuff, but then I remembered the mountain of work involved in completing both the video and the soundtrack. And none of this was for personal gain – just a tribute to my favourite band. For a humble fan-mix, it's certainly caused some trouble…

Each Android Wear smartwatch has a step counter built in, which is cool. It keeps your history, but from what I can tell the data isn't saved anywhere. I used my G Watch for a few days, then applied a factory reset. My history was completely gone and it started over again. Is there a way to save this data? Does anyone know if Runtastic or Runkeeper does? I presume the data will eventually be part of Google Fit, but I would like to save the data now.

MSI GeForce GTX 680 TwinFrozr III OC review
by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 04/17/2012 10:32 AM | Source | 0 comment(s)
We review the MSI GeForce GTX 680 TwinFrozr III OC. First impressions, the PCB seems to be 100% reference. The card is equipped with 2 GB of graphics memory.
They popped a TwinFrozr III cooler on there with five thick 8mm heatpipes which should give some good cooling performance. The card comes factory overclocked though giving it a little more bite. Read the review right here.

Pretty Rug
I think this rug is comfortable and so pretty. My only complaint is that in the picture it looks like it is a uniform light grey color when in fact it is a bit darker and it is really a blend of light and grey. Since I simply wanted grey, it was really not a problem. Good purchase.Read More
It's NOT SILVER!
The material and size it's like they described it, but the color it's not silver and it is grayish flat "no shine and kind like very lite blue mixed.Read More
I purchased this rug and couldn't wait to get it. When it came there was a tear in the corner, most probally from shipping. I got perfect instructions on how to return it and it was replaced within a week. Love the rug. Silver is a great description of the color. Dense Pile, and great texture.Read More
Nice, worth the price
Spent a tad more than it looks, but the color is perfectRead More
Cozy Rug
The fibers are made of larger light and medium grey strands mixed with smaller dark grey and medium grey strands. There are no black strands only dark grey. It does give a "pepper and salt" kind of look. Good neutral color. I have no problems vacuuming. It did have a strong chemical smell for about 1-2 weeks. The backing is rough and scratchy so I would recommend a rug pad if you have real wood floors. I almost sent it back because I was expecting an unbelievably soft and cozy (like a blanket) plush rug from the way the reviews were. But it just a soft plush carpet. It works. My kids and dogs love to lay on it.Read More
Very plush and high quality
I love this rug!! It is SO SOFT and plush. Perfect for our playroom floor. The kids love to lay on it and play puzzles or watch TV. It's super cozy. Given the low price I was worried that it might have a plastic smell or plastic backing, but it doesn't at all. It has a soft woven backing (which will help it hold up over time, and it won't damage our wood floors). And it doesn't smell or shed at all. And the color is gorgeous! A soft silver color. I highly, highly recommend this rug. I think it's the same rug they sell at costco sometimes at twice the price.Read More
Great buy!
Just received this rug yesterday and love it. Edges look good, color is pretty and size is just as described (measures 7'8" x 9'8".) I would buy another one if we needed it, can't beat the price. We have it on hardwood floors and haven't noticed a sliding issue yet because the bottom is rough. There is a slight smell but I expect it to fade over time.Read More
Nice and plush
Love this rug...it is very thick and fluffy and feels nice on your feet...it does not shed and looks awesome!Read More
AMAZING, super thick and super pricey looking!
I was ecstatic when I unrolled the rug. It was much thicker than I had hoped for. This was such a good deal with the recent 15% plus ten bucks off. It's one of those rugs we'd see on display in a store and wonder how people spent so much on a rug! The silver is bright and vibrant, but not obnoxious and there is lots of gray fibers thrown in to tone it down a bit. It feels so good to walk on and doesn't shed. To be clearer than Overstock's title, this is the California Shag rug from Safavieh Rugs. None of the online pics I've seen do it justice with regard to color, or even more thickness. Very pleased, and highly recommend this. This will be my go-to whenver I need a solid shag rug!Read More
Questions & Answers
The price and the good reviews
Do you ship in Canada.
Hello Naty, yes, we do ship to Canada. Thanks for shopping with us!
do you ever send out sample swatches for the rugs?
Hello sarah11111, This rug is lovely! Unfortunately, we do not offer swatches at this time. I apologize for the inconvenience. Thanks for shopping with us.
Can anyone describe the color as being a cool or a warm shade of gray? Pinkish, bluish, greenish, brownish?
Hello beaconbits, we appreciate your inquiry. This grey is more on the warm side as it has a taupe-ish hue to it.We hope this information has been helpful. Thank you for shopping with us. Have a great day!
I think the picture makes it look like it has a brown hue, but it is definitely silver.
more of a blueish grey
There are no undertones of any color other than grey. Actually I got my husband to agree to buying it by calling it "light grey." He was not disappointed! It's gorgeous.
Can you please confirm rug size? The product description says 8' x 10' but one of the reviewers said it was closer to 7'8" x 9'8". I know that doesn't sound like a huge difference, but we need it to fit well under our sofa and determining the exact size would help us decide between getting this rug or the next size up.
Hello ginya7, we appreciate your inquiry. The rugs are individually made, and thusly, there may be a variance in the stated dimensions and the actual dimensions. As a result, we are unable to confirm the exact size of the rug you will receive. Generally speaking, the dimensions will be fairly close. We apologize for any inconvenience. Please feel free contact us with any further questions. We hope this information has been helpful. Thank you for shopping with us. Have a great day!
The grey I ordered is 8x10.
Can you give me some idea about ease of vacuuming? We have a 6 year old black lab and it is imperative we can vacuum the rug but bought a "shag" for our sons nursery and it just gets stuck in the vacuum and we have to use the hand attachment which is such a pain and would not be worth it on a rug this size
Hello bakeshopgirl, we appreciate your inquiry. In conferring with our support team, they have recommended that this not the best rug for an area that needs to be vacuumed frequently. It needs to be vacuumed with care using a hand attachment. We hope this information has been helpful. Thank you for shopping with us. Have a great day!
haven't vacuumed mine yet..thats embarrassing...but I just learned something from this discussion that I need to buy a hand held attachment to get the job done. Ive this rug for awhile and still get asked where I bought it.
I vacuumed it using a vacuum cleaner. You just cannot get to the ends of the rug because it will pull it up. However, this rug is like a long shag carpet, so I don't think that it would be easy to vacuum all that often. Conversely, the pile is longer than lab hair, so it should not show a lot.
Carpet is very shaggy. Vacuums like a dream. No shedding.
I put my vacuum on the high setting for carpet. I have to put a little more effort into it and my vacuum is 10 years old.
I use my Dyson Digital Slim on it. Best purchase ever.
Lots of reviews talk about an odor. Could you explain?
Hello ksprecher, we appreciate your inquiry. Sometimes there is an initial odor that comes from from a brand new rug. The odor can originate from different factors such as adhesives that are used to glue the backing to the rug, the actual material (Polypropylene, a synthetic), or it can be the chemicals that are used in the manufacturing of the rug. Some individuals may notice the odor more than others. Generally, it will dissipate with time and use. Airing the rug seems to facilitate that process. We hope you have found this information helpful. Thank you for shopping with us. Have great day!
We have purchased four of these rugs and have noticed no odor at all.I am usually very sensitive to odors and get migraines from them but have had no problem with this rug
Mine had a smell to it as new products do but it wasn't bad or anything you just knew there was something new in the room. Didn't last for long.
No order what so ever with the one that was delivered to me.
Do you have swatches available for this color?
I didn't think to ask for a swatch but I love the color. It is darker than what is online and has a mix of different color strands but the look is great and nice and plush too!
Thank you for your question. Unfortunately we do not have swatches of our products.
What is the best type of rug pad to use and is it necessary?
It has a soft woven backing (which will help it hold up over time, and it won't damage our wood floors) Review from our site. It appears from the reviews that this is thick and soft so if you want it softer a felt pad.
Can I use a regular vacuum cleaner on this rug?
Yes, you can use a vacuum cleaner on this rug.
title says solid silver, description says peppered black... is there black in the rug?
This rug has shades of silver, black, and white. Silver is the prominent color.

How to Size Your Room For an Area Rug

However, if it's too big or too small, it may leave the impression of an unfinished or poorly decorated room. Before you start shopping for area rugs, you'll want to size the room. This guide will help you to select the right size rug in any room.

Alternative Metals Buying Guide
Mankind and, of course, womankind have adorned themselves with precious metals for centuries. We've always loved the color, shine, and rarity of gold and silver, fashioning the metals into coins, crowns, and even dishes. For talented artisans and their patrons, fine jewelry meant gold and silver and, recently, platinum. However, other metals, such as steel and titanium, can be crafted into high-quality, durable and stylish jewelry, and jewelers have become more appreciative of these alternatives in recent years. The jewelry industry uses the term "alternative metals" to describe the trend toward using industrial metals and alloys for contemporary design. This alternative metals buying guide offers some basic information to help you learn more about these fashionable metals.
Pearl Buying Guide
Since prehistoric times, few of nature's treasures have compared to the luminous beauty of a smooth, sleek pearl. Pearls are versatile; pearl jewelry is equally appropriate with an evening dress at a formal ball or with jeans and a blouse at lunch with friends. Since each pearl is a unique creation, each piece of pearl jewelry is unique, too. Once you learn how to buy pearls of quality, you can add plenty of jewelry with gleaming pearls to your collection. Let us help you select pearl jewelry with our pearl knowledge and jewelry buying tips.

It was a season to remember and one which introduced Detroit Lakes as a football power to the rest of the state.
The 1992 football season for the Detroit Lakes Lakers literally put the DLHS on the sports map in the state of Minnesota.
It was a season which produced amazing statistics, dominating performances and last, but not least, DL's first-ever state team championship.

'What about Uzbekistan?" Zaved said. I thought hard. "Mosques," I said. "Silk road. Bokhara. Samarkand – is that in Uzbekistan? And there were those two British officers that got themselves decapitated by an Amir. We could go and see their graves, I suppose. Connolly and Stoddart. I just wonder –" "What?" "I just don't know if it's totally the place I want to go on my honeymoon."
We're getting married in May, and everything else is going swimmingly – register office, museum for the reception, poems, music, flowers, all agreed on with the minimum of fuss. One crucial element, however, seems absolutely no nearer to being solved. Where on earth do people go for their honeymoon these days, now that everyone's been everywhere already? More to the point, where do we want to go?
Fifty years ago this year, when my parents got married, they went on honeymoon to Ilfracombe in Devon, and the information was conveyed to readers of the Surrey Comet. Since then, large parts of the world have been overtaken by the honeymoon industry. Highly tempting though a honeymoon in the Scilly Isles or the Trossachs seems to me, I think it seems unlikely to fit the case.
My observations of honeymoons have, naturally, been from the outside until now. There was the most peculiar trip down the Nile 20 years ago when my then boyfriend and I found ourselves on a boat with 26 newly married Italian couples and nobody else – they all disappeared after lunch to their cabins, emerging four hours later looking glassy and sated.
There was the occasion when this newspaper sent me to the Seychelles to write a travel piece. I'm sure it's really very nice, but it was hard to escape the disappointing impression that the archipelago was full of newly-weds, sitting on a beach watching the unmatched spectacle of the sun falling romantically into the Indian Ocean before turning, and remembering that they'd only got hitched to Dave from Human Resources.
So there is no prospect of going anywhere remotely resembling Honeymoon Hell. (Rule number one: no archipelagos. Rule two, no safaris). Apart from anything else, there is the fact that I appear to be getting married to a man, and I don't think the industry could quite overcome its embarrassment at that fact. It also seems to rule out parts of the world which we would love to go to – to fulfil a long-held ambition and go to Iran would be wonderfully bold, but probably a little bit reckless on this particular occasion.
"What about Norway?" Well, very dramatic scenery, very easy, there's that splendid Hurtigruten cruise that takes ten days to go up and down every single fjord, but isn't it a little bit, erm, elderly and uneventful? The Sahara – what about Mali? You want a little bit of comfort, don't you?
And then there's the whole credit-crunch aspect, which honestly makes you feel a little bit self-conscious about splurging too much. The other day, an acquaintance, sharing the details of their wedding, revealed that for their stag weekends one had taken his friends to Jamaica and the other to Brazil. I don't think I could do that without feeling very guilty indeed.
All the same, you do want a little bit of a trip-of-a-lifetime, don't you? You want to make people just a little bit jealous when you tell them, even if it's only of your ironic originality in honeymooning in Torremolinos. Top choice at the moment might be Japan, where neither of us has ever been. Second choice might be Iceland, which at any rate ought to be nice and cheap, and where you get to eat dried cod the hell of a lot, apparently.
Still radioactive after all these years?
The new owners of Sellafield have advertised to ask people who worked there in the 1960s, 70s and 80s if they can remember what low-level radioactive waste they disposed of. They themselves don't seem quite sure what the previous owners buried, or where they put it. I know the feeling exactly. I spent 10 minutes this morning looking for my red gloves, and can tell LLW Repository Limited the secret of these things. Whatever it is, it's always in the last place you look.
We're not talking about glowing green rods here, thankfully, but only about stuff like overalls, paper and hospital waste. At least, that's what they say, though their cluelessness may not encourage confidence in this respect.
Cumbrians Opposed to a Radioactive Environment (CORE) says that it may well include "debris from the 1957 Windscale fire, materials from the US Three Mile Island reactor accident and from the Chernobyl explosion."
It does seem peculiar that nobody wrote any of this down, or that they can't find their own records, or that there is no record of who worked there as recently as the 1980s and that there's now the need to advertise in the press. Still, I expect it will all come out in the wash. At any rate, it is about 50 years too late to start worrying about any of it.
That's a killing machine you are cuddling
Some brave researcher at Reading University has tagged 200 neighbourhood cats, and discovered that, once out of your sight, Mr Prickly Paws embarks on an orgy of mindless slaughter. Every cat, it suggests, kills on average 16 wild animals a year – birds, mice, moles, and in one recorded case, even a weasel.
Are you really surprised? Of course the little beasts enjoy nothing more than murdering a blameless vole or two. Personally, I've never looked into the cold, calculating eyes of a cat without reflecting that here is an animal devoted to the conviction that if it were only a little bit bigger it would be very happy to kill you, too.
They're miniature tigers, their innate savagery exacerbated by a sense of complete frustration. And as for its dead victims deposited on your pillow – those aren't gifts. They're warnings, offered in the firm belief that very soon, your day will come, pal. Look on my works, ye mighty, and get out the Kit-e-Kat.

Almost a year after designer jewellery worth about Rs.60 lakh was reported stolen from a hotel at Egmore here, the Chennai Police have identified two foreign nationals allegedly involved in the case.
Investigators tracking Jonathan Augusto (35) of Columbia and Jose Maritio (34) of Ecuador, whose images were captured on surveillance camera, went to Mumbai recently on receiving information that the suspects had booked tickets on a South African airliner. However, they did not turn up.
Weeks later, the police received a tip-off that a native of Ecuador had been apprehended by the Bangalore police at Pune in connection with a similar case. Acting on the instructions of Joint Commissioner of Police (Central) V.A. Ravikumar, a special team went to Bangalore and identified the suspect as Maritio.
During preliminary enquiries, he confessed to the theft in Chennai and claimed that Augusto was in a Malaysian jail after he was arrested in connection with a house burglary case there.
"We are trying to bring the accused to Chennai for interrogation after obtaining a transit warrant. The two were in the habit of stealing designer jewellery. Three passports have been seized from Maritio by the Bangalore police," Deputy Commissioner of Police (Triplicane) T.S. Anbu told TheHindu on Thursday.
Referring to the jewel theft case in Egmore, he said a jeweller, Rahul (40) of Kolkata, had come to participate in an exhibition in Chennai in June last year. The accused stayed in a lodge at Periamet and went to the exhibition posing as friends of Rahul. After the exhibition, they took away a box containing the designer jewellery. The complainant had claimed that the box also contained Rs.4 lakh.
Steps would be taken to extradite Augusto through appropriate agencies. The antecedents of the suspects were being verified, Mr. Anbu added.

Carrier Recombination–Incited Substrate Vibrations After Pulsed UV-Laser Photolysis of TiO2 Thin Single-Crystal Plate and Nanoparticle Films
Volume 67, Number 5 (May 2013) Page 506-512
MING ZHU, GANGBEI ZHU, and YUXIANG WENG*
Photo-induced carrier generation and recombination have been regarded as important steps in understanding the photocatalytic reactions on the surfaces of semiconductors such as TiO2. During the investigation of a photocatalytic water-splitting reaction on the surface of semiconductor TiO2 (rutile) single-crystal plate and sintered-nanoparticle (anatase) films coated on a CaF2 plate, a pulsed 355 nm laser was used for band-gap excitation and a continuous-working, mid-infrared laser as the probe to trace the kinetics of the photogenerated electrons. Fast oscillations with periods of 10–50 μs were observed. We demonstrated experimentally that these oscillations are neither from the nonlinear carrier recombination dynamics nor surface chemical reactions; instead, they are caused by the thermal-induced flexural vibrations initiated by the fast carrier recombination in the light-absorbing area. The observed oscillations can be well accounted for by thermal stress–induced flexural vibrations of the substrates due to rapid charge recombination, and the observed oscillation frequencies match the flexural vibration frequencies predicted by the Kirchhoff–Love thin-plate theory. Light-interference effect caused by the beam reflecting off the surfaces of the substrate and windows, which can amplify the oscillation signals, is also discussed. Several approaches are proposed to minimize or eliminate the interference from the substrate vibration in the transient kinetic measurement when a coherent laser is used as the probe beam.
Index Headings: Titanium dioxide; Thin single-crystal plate; Nanoparticle film; Carrier recombination; Fast oscillation; Flexural vibration.

South Eastern Natives
I just got a copy of a North American Rock Gardening book and it had some nice articles about eastern and south eastern native rock garden plants, but when I look for them I can't seem to find any nursery that sells them.
I was also facinated by alot of the nifty plants I saw in the new Jersey Pine Barrens, which I think would work well in a rock garden, but also couldn't find anyone who sold them.
Does anyone have any good suggestions for good rock garden plants native to the mid-atlantic/southeast and a nursery which sells them? (Or the name of someone willing to trade?)
There are 4 places I have confidence in, in that they propagate responsibly, as many plants are protected or endangered. I have dealt with them all. Google in Woodlander's in Carolinas, Nurcar (Nurseries Caroliniana), Rarefindnursery.com in Jackson NJ and Fairweather Nurseries in Greenwich NJ. I have not dealt with Eastern Plant in Clark NJ and Me., but they have an interesting list.

It's impossible to muffle top Superbike rider Mladin
As the first four-time AMA Superbike season champion, Mat Mladin uses his position to speak his mind, and he easily finds an audience.
The 32-year-old Australian rider for Team Suzuki has strong opinions on all aspects of motorcycle road racing. Heading into next weekend's doubleheader event at Fontana's California Speedway, he took time to spout off about new rules, safety, and the state of the sport.
Mladin isn't thrilled with the AMA continually tinkering with setup rules, especially late in the offseason. The changes were made to create parity. Claiming four titles in five years, and his record-tying 10 wins last year, makes Mladin the dominant rider on the tour.
He has 25 career wins and can catch Miguel Duhamel, who is still active, for the career lead with one more victory.
"The performance of the bike is down quite a bit from last year," Mladin said. "We know we have to work hard with all the good teams in Superbike. The AMA robbed us of some horsepower, but they won't rob us of a championship."
This year, AMA mandated the Superbikes use stock air boxes and throttle bodies. With the late announcement, Suzuki wasn't able to complete proper testing.
It didn't matter in the season opener on March 6 in Daytona, Fla., as Mladin won the race. Since, he has tested the bike and feels more comfortable in his quest to sweep the Fontana weekend like he did last year.
"With so many rule changes all the time we have a small field of bikes," Mladin said. "It keeps other manufactures out. You can tell they don't like it because we can see all the manufacturers are pulling out."
There are only six factory riders in the Superbike class; from Suzuki, Honda and Ducati. The rest of the riders have only limited support from those manufacturers and others.
To improve racing, enhance factory support and help road racing gain popularity, Mladin proposes the elimination of some of the four classes that compete on the Superbike tour. It would make races easier to follow for fans, who would no longer require such background knowledge as the differences between the Supersport and Superstock classes.
"If we have one class with the same rules, we could have 15-16 riders who can stick it on the podium," Mladin said.
Rider safety is something else that can help the sport improve, in Mladin's view. There are only a few race tracks built for motorcycle racing in the United States. Many of the venues the AMA visits have walls around the track to retain tumbling cars. They are hazards for motorcycle riders.
There was a death at California Speedway two years ago in the first AMA event, but it happened when a rider ran into a motorcycle, a freak accident.
"Fontana is a good race track because safety is the No. 1 thing I look for at a track, and it's better than most tracks we go to," Mladin said. "There's not enough places to go in America. Until they build more or improve their safety -- and have set rules -- we can't go anywhere with the sport."

Teeth Whitening: beauty routine.Ease way into a teeth whitening routine that goes beyond daily brushing with enamel-safe Vivid Whitestrips. For just 30 minutes once a day, Vivid Whitestrips remove stains caused by coffee, wine and smoking by penetrating below the enamel surface for visibly whiter results. Brighten overall appearance with visibly whiter results.
Please read all label information carefully on delivery and prior to use.
I've been using Crest 3D Whitening Rinse and I have to say, compared to that, Lavoris tastes dreadful! But- it seems to whiten up a bit. So, I picked up a bottle for $1.00. No big loss. It just tastes awful, in my opinion.
I have been using mentadent toothpaste for years. i cannot find in any store near me anymore. CVS doesn't carry it. Neither does Wal Mart. I wish I could find it in a tube. It is inconvient to take with you in the pump. it is the best toothpaste I've ever used. I will order from here after I try one more time to purchase it in a store. I don't care to have to pay shipping.
It did change the color to a nicer white. But the bottom piece did not stick to the teeth nearly as well as the top.
used 2hour white after professional bleaching with dentist. i used the 2 hour white NOT as directed....i placed gel in trays from professional whitening and kept gel in over night. i use the gel once every 4 to 6 months as a touch-up when the white from professional whitening begins to dull. the rembrandt product works GREAT to restore the bright white from before. definitely a deal for the price! i definitely wont go back to the $400+ whitening at the dentist!
