Court records show that Suggs filed a custody complaint against Williams on Nov. 19. Williams filed her complaint sometime afterward, Alperstein said. Baltimore County police said Thursday that two calls to 911 were received from Suggs' address on Nov. 21, but no reports were taken.
Alperstein said that attorneys "anticipate that all of the domestic-related issues will be resolved" at a court hearing next week.
Kevin Byrne, the Ravens senior vice president of public and community relations, said that the organization is aware of the situation, but he declined further comment. Suggs declined comment through the team.
Williams' attorney, Charles E. Brooks, declined comment when reached at home Thursday night.
Williams, who is the mother of his two children and was once his fiancee, alleged in a court filing in December 2009 that the long-time Raven knocked her down and spilled bleach following an argument over game-day tickets.
According to the complaint, Williams said Suggs threw a soap dispenser at her head, hit her in the chest with his hand, and held a bottle of bleach over her and their 1-year-old son.
The allegations came in an application for a protective order, a civil process initiated by individuals. Suggs was not investigated or charged with a crime.
Williams received a temporary protective order following the incident, but she rescinded it about a month later and withdrew a $70 million lawsuit as the two attempted to reconcile.
Suggs posted pictures of himself with his two children via Twitter, including one while at the Washington Wizards-Miami Heat basketball game at the Verizon Center, on Tuesday night.
The 10-year NFL player, who is the organization's all-time leader in sacks, tore his right biceps in the Ravens' 23-20 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers last Sunday. It was Suggs' seventh game back after his surprising return from a torn Achilles tendon that he suffered in April.
Suggs has vowed to continue to play through his latest injury and returned to the practice field Thursday. The Ravens, currently 9-3, will play the Washington Redskins Sunday at FedEx Field in Landover.

I have no excuse other than I truly love the quality of the V2 cig. The performance of their batteries always deliver an extraordinary amount of vapor; and when mixed with the highest quality of flavors in the market, it truly makes vaping an enjoyable and relaxing experience. V2 has just lowered their prices, which I think was a marketing campaign; but nevertheless they decided to make the price change permanent!
White Cloud ReviewNot to be confused with the toilet paper brand, this company is naming itself for the magnificent white cloud of vapor that it produces; and it's quite truthful to be honest. The white cloud e-cigarette is the cadillac of the e-cig market. Everything from luxury and comfort, sleekness of design ...
Green Smoke ReviewGreen Smoke has been around longer than most of the more popular e-cigs that you see online or in stores, and there have been more Green Smoke reviews posted online than any other brand. Green Smoke has made a lot of changes to their products over the years and they ...
SmokeTip ReviewI've seen a lot of Smoketip reviews online and the consistancy of placement and the review of the quality always seems about the same. Smoketip is a bit 'under-the-radar' in the market, but it's not because they are lacking. I've tried the kits, and they make a very nice e-cig. ...
V2 Cigs ReviewsJust about every e-cig review site online has a v2 cigs reviews page. Nine times out of ten it's listed at the #1 spot. There is a reason that they are at the top of all the rankings for these review sites. That's because they have the best, highest quality ...

SmokeTip Review
It's always a hard decision for me to rank the things I like. Especially when it comes to electronic cigarette brands. Smoketip has to be placed at #2 for me just because of how great awesome the flavors are along with how wide of an array of flavors they have compared to other brands. Smoketip kits are a cheap and affordable way to try out one of the 'Best' brands available anywhere. Their quality is top-notch and undeniable.
Premium ECigarette Review
Premium E-Cigarette brand makes an excellent e-cig. The performance of the batteries matched with some decent flavors really makes for a great starter kit for any smoker or anyone wanting to give e-cigs a try. The amount of vapor the batteries deliver is a bit above par and their prices are excellent and competitive. I really enjoyed reviewing this brand!
Green Smoke Review
Green Smoke could be known as the pioneers of the electronic cigarette because they've been around so long, I've personally watched them grow into a brand that everyone trusts and loves. Having a huge customer base that will follow you through all the major changes when the e-cig devices were still technologically advancing really says something about that brand. They have some of the best and nicest customer support representatives and they also have high-quality products and good tasting flavors.
South Beach Smoke Review
This Florida company really knows how to take a generic ecig model and make it into a sleek and powerful vapor delivering machine. Along with it's awesome and unique orange glow tip, to it's high-powered batteries and ending with their better than average and still advancing flavors, South Beach Smoke is taking their products to the next level. If you're a beginner or if you are an experienced e-cigger, you'll certainly like the South Beach Smoke products.
Vapor King Review
Vapor King may not be the top-of-the-class, but then again the top companies make magnificent products. I'm not trying to downgrade Vapor King, as I reviewed their product I was quite content with what they offer, and I was actually glad to spend my money on their starter kit and flavors that I received. Vapor King is right about where the other two e-cig brands are on my list here. There's really nothing bad to say, but then again they are just right on par with their flavors, taste, quality, and batteries. I'll just leave it at this, you won't be losing money if you invest in their starter kits.
Eversmoke Review
Eversmoke is newer e-cig brand that released earlier this year. Their products are high quality and their batteries have excellent responsivness and deliver an awesome amount of vapor. I feel like they could focus more on improving flavors a bit, but other than that; in my opinion, they are a top rated electronic cigarette brand. They use the same technology in their LED lights as south beach smoke and their overall design is quite sleek in appearance.
White Cloud Review
If you believe that you get what you pay for, then White Cloud is the perfect choice for you. Their electronic cigarettes have the absolute most vapor I've ever seen in my life, it's crazy. Their flavors are a little weak to me, and a little off; but that's my opinion. However, their prices are pretty high and to tell you the truth so is the quality of this device! You will savor every dollar you spend with white cloud.
Blu Cigs Reviews
When it comes to e-cigarettes, I'm a quality person. I want an e-cig that just sweats of quality. If sleekness is added to that then it's all the better, but if not; I'm not too concerned. With blu cigs I see them in a lot of drug stores and even some supermarkets, and I feel like since they took their product to the stores their quality has diminished a bit as well. The flavors are good, and the batteries are somewhat powerful. However, I feel that ….

We report on a simple and versatile method for the integration of tritium in semiconductor materials. A variety of semiconductor materials are exposed to tritium (T2) gas at pressures of up to 120 bar and temperatures of up to 250 °C. Tritiated materials include hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H), crystalline silicon (c-Si), silica and carbon nanotubes (CNT). Deep ultra-violet laser irradiation was used to lock tritium in silica films. Effusion measurements show the presence of stable tritium in silicon, silica and CNTs up to 400 °C. IR absorption spectra show a Si-T stretching mode at 1200 cm-1 indicating the formation of stable Si-T bonds in a-Si:H. SIMS measurements show that the penetration depth of tritium in a-Si:H and c-Si is 150 and 10 nm, respectively; the concentration of tritium locked in a-Si:H and c-Si is 20 and 4 at.%, respectively. In tritiated silica, 248-nm UV laser irradiation locks the permeated tritium at stable chemical bonding sites in the silica lattice. Thermal effusion measurement shows that 0.5 wt.% tritium can be stably immobilized in CNTs. The application of tritiated silicon as a cold electron source is demonstrated.

17th and 18th Century Burney Collection Newspapers
The newspapers, pamphlets, and books gathered by the Reverend Charles Burney (1757-1817) represent the largest and most comprehensive collection of early English news media. The present digital collection, that helps chart the development of the concept of 'news' and 'newspapers' and the "free press", totals almost 1 million pages and contains approximately 1,270 titles. Many of the Burney newspapers are well known, but many pamphlets and broadsides also included have remained largely hidden.

Most bikes I work on are newer in nature so there is not a lot of information on what you can/can't do to them. Yet with the TA, the Mod thread is like going through a history book seeing all the work that people have done. But it does not stop there, the human factor is incredible and the trials and tribulations and even the passing of some members draws you into a very extended and wide family history. So many times I am tempted to respond to a question or comment but I have to stop myself as they were asked and answered 7 years ago. So as I work my way to the present day section of the thread I find that I am beginning to weave myself into a very long linage of riders and builders who are really paving the way for the new owners like myself. I hope my efforts to copy the work they have done, does them justice. Thank you all for what you have done, I look forward to what will be down the road.
I did the same thing when I got my TA. For thoes of us into this stuff, it's like a good book you can't put down. It was interesting to trace the migration of individual bikes from new owner to new owner and the changes they made. Also the coming and going of owners as their needs/wants change. Some members have greater knowledge/experience in one area and others in different areas, most are very helpful with answering questions even if they have been answered many times before. It's unfortunate that many of the the early pictures have been "dropped" , and there is no assurance that recent pictures will endure. I have a very disorganized set of notes/references, and save or print things I want to keep. Looking forward to watching yours and others continuing interpretations.

Barrow woman may be forced to close animal refuge
Last updated at 11:56, Thursday, 28 May 2009
AN animal lover says she is being forced to shut her sanctuary for injured birds.
Pat Denny turned her garden at Cliff Lane, Barrow, into a refuge for injured birds a decade ago and has since helped hundreds of creatures to survive.
She currently cares for around 40 injured ducks and birds including a blind crow.But the 66-year-old says she will have to close her doors unless she gets some urgent cash help.
Ms Denny, who part remortgaged her bungalow to raise thousands of pounds to help pay for her animals three years ago, was left with just £10 in her handbag for her and her birds earlier this week.
She said: "I have that many disabled birds.
"Nobody would want to take them on and they would have to be destroyed.
"I am just coming to the end of my tether.
"I just sat down and cried looking at the birds last night.
"I can't struggle on paying food bills, I am down to my last tenner in my purse.
"If I could afford it I would do it forever, but it has got to crisis point now.
"The gull season is coming up but I have got enough birds and I am absolutely bereft of money.
"Everything has gone up in price and I can't even pay my mortgage this month, it is that bad.
"I will continue but only if I can get some funding.
"I am a pensioner now and that's it.
"I have run out of funds.
"I have been spending everything on this except the mortgage." Ms Denny is dreading a new influx of injured birds like seagulls now the hatching season is about to start.
And there is real danger that some of disabled birds she has cared for long-term might now have to be destroyed.
She said the funding crisis had been growing but she had been too proud to say anything until now.
She said she had also been hit in the credit crunch when the value of stocks and shares she owns plummeted.
Currently an elderly lady supporter gives her £40 a month while another donates £10 a month.
But Ms Denny says she needs at least £200 a month to survive – which excludes other expenses such as maintaining the aviaries.
Ms Denny said: "The police bring me birds, the town hall rings me up about pigeons that are injured with one thing or another.
"Tesco, Asda, all of them ring me. I wrote to Tesco because I have had three ducks from outside their spot when they were tiny.
"They were domestic ducks and someone had dumped them, so I couldn't let them go in the wild and I have been feeding them all that time.
"I have also had seagulls injured from their wind turbines. But they didn't help. The only one I get a bit of food from is Pets at Home. They are very good.
"I got £40 off a lady for looking after a gull, but normally everyone just dumps birds and disappears and they don't realise the cost of it with the food and everything."
Vet Simon Pudsey, who is a partner of The Grove Veterinary Centre in Rawlinson Street which treats Ms Denny's birds free of charge, said: "We don't have any other method of rehabilitating birds in this area except Pat.
"She is responsible on her own for the majority of rehabilitation of wildlife in this area. We do rely on her."
He said there had been concern about her funds for some time.
Mr Pudsey said: "People just leave things with her.
"Often they will do that without providing any kind of assistance, it's just 'here's the whatever, you look after it.'
"We are very lucky to have someone as dedicated as she is.
"If there was a way to get her some funding that would be great. It is always tricky one to work out how that could happen."
If you can help contact John Simpson on 01229 840144, firstname.lastname@example.com or ring Ms Denny on 01229 826722.

sleeper question

Every once and a while, someone will list one on Ebay but that's about it. They're really easy to build and I offer resin parts to use with them such as a roof AC unit (modern low profile Dometic) and refrigerator face (as that's all you see when the fridge is installed into the wall) a Thetford Aqua Magic toilet, a Splendide washer/dryer face (again, they are installed in a cabinet so you only see the face), a double bowl sink. A restroom sink that's in a corner countertop and a microwave face. There might be more, I'd have to check.

Ok cool.i might have to get a couple thangs from you in the near future do u know what thickness sheet styrene id need to do my own sleeper?
You want to buy Evergreen plain sheet stock from your hobby shop. It comes in 6" x 12" sheets, 3 to a pack for about $4 for the last one I bought. The thicknesses go from .010", which is like paper, and I'd recommend using the .030" for sides, roof etc. and maybe the .040" for the base. I used .020" for the front and back of my camper and it is a bit light and flexes, which you don't want!
Posted 22 January 2013 - 03:45 AM
Check with the hobby shop, but also check Evergreen's website.
They also offer their .01-.08 inch thick in Larger sizes. 11x14 & 12x24 Inch!!
Not cheap. if you have to buy more than you want/need, but, Great if you
need LARGE areas with No joints.
Want Paper like sheets, try their .005. That is THIN & VERY Flexible!!
I use it for trim or shimming!!

I've known some to use .040 for the shell walls and it may be ok. I use .080 as I like the stiffness of it and that would probably be more accurate to the 1;1 walls.
This is one I built a few years ago.
Walls, floor and ceiling are made with .080. All interior parts structures are .040. Cabinet doors and drawers are .020.

MMD president Nevers Mumba was yesterday booed when his entourage drove into Chisokone Market in Kitwe soon after being released from Kamfinsa State Prison.
The MMD leader was arrested on Monday and detained at Kitwe East Police Station on a charge of unlawful assembly, which he and seven other party officials denied before a Kitwe magistrate's court.
Dr Mumba, four of his members of Parliament (MPs) and three officials were remanded at Kamfinsa State Prison on Tuesday before meeting bail conditions.
Immediately after being released yesterday, the opposition leader, along with his co-accused, proceeded to Chisokone Market in the town centre where some traders and passersby booed them and raised clenched fists, the Patriotic Front (PF) symbol.
The MPs arrested with Dr Mumba were Howard Kunda for Muchinga, Masaiti's Michael Katambo, Lufwanyama MP Annie Chungu and James Chishiba for Kafulafuta Constituency.
Others are MMD deputy national secretary Chembe Nyangu, Copperbelt provincial women's chairperson Edith Mataka and Greenford Kalinda.
They appeared in court on Tuesday and bail was granted in the sum of K2 million each in their own recognisance.
At the market, Dr Mumba and other officials in six motor vehicles were booed by some youths who were waving the PF symbol.
As the motorcade passed through Independence Avenue and Zambia Way, pedestrians, vendors and motorists waved back the PF symbol as they booed the MMD officials.
The youth banged Dr Mumba's vehicle, forcing the entourage to rush out of the market as more people started shouting that the previous administration had failed them.
Earlier, after his release, Dr Mumba said he had come out of prison a determined person with the resolve to contribute to the democratic growth of the country.
He later held a Press briefing at Jubilee Lodge where he urged Government to address the mealie meal shortages in the country.

The Bachelor
Tierra LiCausi Is Selling Her Sparkle!
The moment you've been waiting for has finally arrived. The Bachelor Season 17's most lovable (read: deranged) contestant, Tierra LiCausi, is giving the people what they want and selling her sparkle. You know, her sparkle? That mysterious substance that everyone tried to steal on The Bachelor?
Turns out Tierra and her left eyebrow are launching their very own jewelry line this spring, and girlfriend couldn't be more pumped. "In the works!" Tierra posted to Instagram on April 30, along with a lovely photo collage of her face and some random glitter. "#soexcited #4ev3ryours #business #sparkle #openheart #diamond #bling."
Looks like Tierra's venture into jewelry design will be called 4Ever Yours, and will feature diamond encrusted open hearts (which we assume are modeled on Tierra's very own open heart wrist tattoo!). Basically, girlfriend is the Jane Seymore of Bachelor Nation.
Unfortunately, Tierra's website hasn't been launched (stay tuned), but head over to 4Ever Yours' Facebook page and give girlfriend a shout-out. "I am so excited to be launching my OWN LINE!" Tierra writes on her company's wall. "So please help out, like my page and follow the OFFICIAL TIERRA!"
Done and done, girl. Now excuse us while we go prepare our bodies for a shower of Sparkles.

Impacts and Adaptation Publications
Assessment Reports
The Climate Change Impacts and Adaptation Division (CCIAD) leads the development of collaborative, national and sectoral science assessments that present the latest knowledge on climate change impacts and adaptation for Canadians.
These assessments are scientific reports that assess, critically analyze and synthesize the growing knowledge base on the issue. Working with subject matter experts in government, universities and non-government organizations, CCIAD produces science assessments that are current, relevant and accessible sources of information, to help inform planning of policies, program and actions.
Completed Assessment Reports
Canada in a Changing Climate: Sector Perspectives on Impacts and Adaptation is an update to the 2008 report, From Impacts to Adaptation: Canada in a Changing Climate. The report assesses literature published since 2007 on climate change impacts, adaptation and vulnerability in Canada. It includes chapters on natural resources, food production, industry, biodiversity and protected areas, human health, and water and transportation infrastructure.
From Impacts to Adaptation: Canada in a Changing Climate (2008) assesses risks and opportunities presented by climate change, and actions being taken to address them, from a regional perspective.
Climate Change Impacts and Adaptation: A Canadian Perspective (2004) takes a sectoral approach in summarizing understanding of climate change impacts and adaptation issues.
Assessment Reports in Development
Coastal Assessment
This assessment of climate change sensitivity, risks, impacts and adaptation along Canada's marine coasts will focus on ecosystems, human communities and infrastructure. The report will be an important resource to inform regional and national decision-making on coastal planning, management and the development of climate change adaptation strategies.
Transportation Assessment
This assessment will address climate change risks, opportunities and adaptation practices for the Canadian transportation sector. Co-led by Transport Canada's Environmental Policy Directorate, this assessment will provide an up-to-date, accessible source of information to inform transportation decision-making and policy development,as well as economic sectors reliant upon transportation systems.

What has the world come to? I switch on a new Nokia phone and the first thing I see is the BlackBerry Messenger. Yes, a Nokia phone running a version of Google's operating system which some people in Finland thought was not worth a second glance. The Nokia X is the first of the Nokia phones to feature a modified operating system based on the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). But let us get one thing clear, this is not an Android phone. Here is why:
The design is not Android
The Nokia X looks and feels like a slightly large Asha 501. It has a thinner bezel and hence more real estate. It is also a bit heavier. It comes from the same design family as the rest of the Nokia phones these days and, hence, has a bright colour body. The rear flap also tries to protect the camera bump. But the big difference in comparison to Android phones is that there is just one back button under the screen, like in the Asha series. And this is not exactly a Home button. This has a considerable impact on the way you use this phone.
The OS is not Android
This phone OS does not look like any Android phone you have ever seen. Nokia has tried to bring in the Lumia design language into the phone and you have a tile-based interface that is many notches below what you find on the Lumia 525. So this Android phone actually looks more like a Windows phone. You can add apps to the homescreen and make some basic tweaks to the entire look and feel.
But it is not a bad interface. Nokia is using Fastlane from the Asha series to give a completely non-Android user experience on the phone. Everything you need is one swipe away and the phone is very fast when you swipe through the apps. One swipe left from an app and you are on the homescreen, a swipe to the right and you are in the Fastlane showing all the recent apps, including the one you switched from. It needs some getting used to, but it is effective. However, we noticed that with some apps, it was very hard to exit. We guess these are the made-for-Android apps.
There is no Google Play store
The best thing about Android, or iOS, is the access it gives to millions of apps. But there is no Google Play store on the Nokia X. There is a store that lets you download apps without even logging in. The store has lots of popular apps, though some of the bigwigs like Instagram are missing.
The last qualifier has been added because you might find apps that do what you are looking for. For instance, I could not find the official YouTube app, but there are a bunch of others …continued »

Grey's Anatomy
Ellen Pompeo: Kissing Patrick Dempsey & Other Co-Stars Is "Awkward" and "Gross" (VIDEO)
Ellen Pompeo (Meredith Grey) was on Chelsea Lately last night (February 28), and she discussed everything from the latest bat mitzvah trends to charging drunk people $30 for vodka tonics when she was a bartender.
Oh, and she said kissing her Grey's Anatomy co-stars is "gross."
Ellen started by opening up about her "rough" childhood growing up in Boston. "Everybody I know has been to prison, including my husband." Wait, what's that now? Ellen explains that she and husband Chris Ivery grew up in adjacent neighborhoods, and that when they first got together, "tabloids thought they were breaking this big news story about my bad, terrible husband." She says, "I've known him since I was 15."
Then she told Chelsea that she hears the new trend is for kids to ask their parents if they can invite "black kids to their bat mitzvahs to liven it up a little." Ellen covers her tracks a bit by saying she heard it from someone else, she can't remember who, etc.
As for the early days of Grey's Anatomy when Meredith was pretty promiscuous, Ellen says that being forced to kiss all those strangers was "gross." But not so with Patrick Dempsey (Derek Shepherd), which just gets "awkward," because "we are literally like brother and sister."
Watch the interview to see Ellen go a little wild, not to mention address those Katherine Heigl rumors!
Catch an all-new Grey's Anatomy on Thursday, March 15 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.

Grief poem for titi ZaidaSunday, October 21st, 2007 Email This Post
Last week the aunt of a dear friend passed away. Although I never had the privilege of meeting her, I had been hearing about titi Zaida for the last few years. She was suffering from Alzheimer's disease, a fact that caused much sadness for her family. Zaida's devoted husband, Ruben, lovingly cared for her as she slowly and surely parted from him emotionally.
In the final six months of her life three of her nieces, Wila, Becky and Ana, began providing her personal care. Their loving care gave Ruben needed respite and allowed him more opportunity to just be with his beloved wife.
The three nieces felt blessed and honored to care for their aunt and, of course, their relationship with her deepened. They were with her at the moment of death.
In her grief, niece Ana, wrote a poem to honor titi Zaida. With much emotion in her heart and voice she read the poem during the funeral Mass. With permission, Zaida's poem by Ana Puig is shared with you here:
In Morpheus' arms you dozed
Your eyes sleepy and cloudy
Said farewell to life bit by bit
And we, keeping watch upon your breaths,
Tired and sad, remembered…
"Reinita" deep in the country, little morning star
Inspiration of my dreams, model of my education
You were bridge, path, refuge, water, nourishment, and dwelling
Bearer of colors, brush strokes of hope
Enterprising artist soul, kind, tender, wise…
How do you say goodbye to a woman like Zaida…?
You left us bit by bit, in sighs and daydreams
The vacant space you left, only your light can fill
That little moonbeam your smile spilled
In the vigil of love this past week
Sleep mocked me by night and at the dawn
In the shadows and the silence, as you ebbed away
The footprints of your memory danced in my remembrance
We give thanks to God for having known you
With your generosity you conquered our souls
The memory of your love shelters us and hugs us from the heavens you now walk…
What else can I tell you my blood hasn't already…?
That I love you that I miss you that my heart breaks…?
That I hope to see you again when my hour comes
That my God blesses you; that your soul rest in peace…
Both Ana and I hope this poem brings you comfort as you grieve for your loved one. We also hope it inspires you to express your feelings of grief and loss in a poem.
You are not a poet you say? You are not a writer you say?
I say, you are a human being with a broken heart and right now you have strong feelings.
Begin by putting pen or pencil to paper and writing a few words that describe your feelings of loss. Then write a few words describing your loved one's life (or their death). Write down some of your favorite words next. Then you might want to organize all these words into a paragraph or letter to your loved one (or another person in your life).
You might next be inspired to write a story describing an event in life with your loved one.
Perhaps now you take a line or two from here and there in your writings and place each on a line of its own.
You have written a poem! How do you feel? You have connected with your creativity and I am so proud of you!
Do not worry about spelling, punctuation, grammar, style or your assessment of the quality of your writings and your poem. You have written from your heart expressing feelings and sorrow (professional writers tell us writing from the heart is the most important part).
Sharing your poem with others isn't necessary and wasn't the point of my encouragement for you to compose it. But if you decide to share your poem, will you share it here in the Comments for this post? I say, please and thank you.
Sincerely sending you Peace, Love, Creativity & Beauty,
PS Ana's Zaida-Poem was originally composed in Spanish. You can access the original Spanish version here.

Healthy Body for Happy Life
From the day a child is born, our top most priority is a "happy life", at certain ages we tent to define a happy life only when we have or achieve certain things. For a child; having loads of sweets and playing all day will be the happiest life yet it changes when they reach teenage. But if you ask someone who is in the hospital with some sort of illness or disability, he will explain that being healthy is the number one factor for a happy life. For example if you have a toothache, no matter how much money you have or world's best doctor treating you will not be able to make you eat chocolate bar unless you cure your dental condition. You can argue that the best dental practices like d4dentist can cure your problems soon. health problems will take all your freedom, peace of mind and your confident.
Healthy body starts with a healthy mouth, is a well known saying in many recent research reports. The reason oral health is so important to have a healthier life is that many diseases such as heart attack and other common chronic diseases are inter-related. These studies are not just to backup the fact that we all need to visit the dentist every month but the underlying truth in the relation between our mouth the body vital as mouth is the door way to the body not only it allows us to intake food and drink into our body but also it enhances social interaction and promotes self-esteem. I have always thougth why the dental treatment is so expensive compared to normal day to day medical conditions. I'm not trying to justify this with merely the above mentioned facts and also not undermining the priority and need of other medical areas. for example if you look for dental implants cost london you will find out how much they cost. It doesn't have to be dental implants but if you call up a dublin dentist to enquire the costs, you will find they are not cheap as it all comes with good quality service.
Having a great body is not only visiting a doctor every week or month, It is about how good you look after your body. Doing regular exercises will continuously build a healthy body. But if you want to master in this or to become a physical trainer then you have to follow a personal trainer courses which will help you maintain your fitness as well as to guide many others to be healthy.
One other reason the prices of teeth implants have gone up in the countries like United States, United Kingdom, Canada and Australia is people are looking for a reliable solution. A dental solution that can actually give them the experience which is close to having a natural teeth. Since teeth implant have proved this again and again, patients look for the quality of the service they will be receiving for their money.

Tonya Harding, Nancy Kerrigan linked together by an attack 20 years ago
By SCOTT SUNDE, SEATTLEPI.COM STAFF | January 6, 2014 | Updated: January 7, 2014 10:38am
Photo By Pascal Rondeau/Getty ImagesIt made normal look strange when Nancy Kerrigan and Tonya Harding shared the ice during the 2004 Olympics, as they did here on Feb. 17, 1994.
Photo By CRAIG STRONG/Getty ImagesThe media attention began after the Jan. 6, 2004, attack on Kerrigan. Here Tonya Harding faces reporters on Jan. 20, 1994, in Portland.
Photo By Mike Powell/Getty ImagesOn Jan. 7, 1994, Harding was competing in the national figure skating championships in Detroit. It was a day after the attack on Kerrigan. Harding won, but her title was later stripped.
Photo By EUGENE GARCIA/Getty ImagesHarding's supporters rallied to her, including these fans at the Clackamas Town Center mall rink on Jan. 24, 1994, in Portland.
Photo By ERIC FEFERBERG/Getty ImagesAfter questions about whether Kerrigan would be able to compete in the Olympics and whether Harding would be allowed to, both did. Here the two are during a practice session on Feb. 23, 1994.
Photo By VINCENT ALMAVY/Getty ImagesIt appeared they both did their best to ignore each other as in this practice session on Feb. 17, 1994, at the Olympics.

Photo By John Gress/Getty ImagesHarding has been remembered in other ways, including as a hot sauce. The Oregon-made sauce is pictured here on Nov. 7, 2002.
Twenty years ago, figure skater Nancy Kerrigan was attacked in Detroit, where the U.S. figure skating championships were taking place.
The blow of a metal baton to her knee was the start of one long, strange trip in a sport where participants seem to have fairy princess images.
Kerrigan and her competitor Tonya Harding were linked forever in arenas, courtrooms and the media. There was a made-for-TV movie, an opera and later a rock opera about the whole sordid affair.
The attack left Kerrigan with doubts about whether she would be able to compete in the 1994 Olympics in Norway. And implications about Harding's involvement left doubts about whether she would be allowed to compete.
Both did. Kerrigan won a silver medal. Harding broke a shoelace and finished in eighth place.
Harding now says all the media attention proved to be too much for her, according to ABC.
"Trying to train in front of everyone was so much mania," Harding, now 43, said in an interview for ESPN Films' "The Price of Gold." "Every time I'd jump they would all flash, I would fall on my face and hurt myself a couple of times. It just started becoming really impossible just to even concentrate on anything."
The media frenzy following the attack on Kerrigan, who was widely favored to win a medal at the Winter Olympics in 1994, brought the spotlight squarely upon Harding. She denied any involvement in the attack that might have increased her own odds of Olympic gold.
"I just couldn't believe what was being said and stuff," Harding said. "I never met or talked to–didn't even know the other person involved," she said.
Over the next 20 years, Kerrigan skated professionally, appeared on "Saturday Night Live" and in the Will Ferrell movie "Blades of Glory." She made it to the skating hall of fame.
Harding boxed professionally after her hopes of skating professionally died.
She now lives in central Oregon with her husband and young son, The Oregonian reports.

YOUTH RESOURCES: Identifying personality types helps youth relationships
Growing up is tough. Middle school and high school students experience daily crash-courses in human relations, public relations and just plain problem-solving.
Here are a few tips for handling relational problem situations with friends, peers, co-workers, teachers, parents and siblings — adapted from Kivi Leroux Miller's recent online blog, "Crisis Communications 101:"
Stay calm. A clear head solves problems.
Be honest. Getting caught in a lie creates more problems, not fewer.
Respond openly, quickly and directly to the person or people involved. Don't procrastinate in dealing with the issue, and don't talk to everyone else before you talk to the people involved.
Be clear. Leave nothing up to interpretation.
Get your own story out fast. Do not rely on other people to tell your story or to tell you stories.
Prepare for a bad day or two.
Keep any promises you make while handling the situation.
Learn from what happened. Think about what you did right and what you did wrong.
Understand that not everyone will see the situation the way you do.
In Youth Resources' programs, students working together on events, service projects or other youth-led program management face challenges while dealing with each other's awesome and different personalities.
One of the tools we offer students on a regular basis is the opportunity to discover their personality type and, consequently, how to negotiate their world more naturally and healthfully.
Our office facilitates simple interactive assessments such as "Colors" — an activity during which students complete three short worksheets and tally their scores to assign themselves a color that matches their dominant personality type.
A group discussion follows about how each color works with the other three color groups in a number of settings: Group work at school, peer groups on the weekends and even family relationships between parents and children.
We often forget that our parents do not always see the world from the same personality foundation as we do. For more in-depth discovery, we direct students toward professional personality assessments such as Meyers-Briggs.
Through discussions about personality, Youth Resources helps students understand that acknowledging the differences around them is the first step toward successful collaboration, which in turn decreases the need for those crisis-handling tips already mentioned. More understanding leads to fewer human relations problems, whether you're 16 or 50.

A recently released national report that lists one of East Tennessee State University's College of Education programs among the worst in the nation for teacher training used data that was no longer relevant and research methods that were flawed, according to the school's dean of education.
The National Council on Teacher Quality and U.S. News & World Report review was released Tuesday and assessed more than 1,000 colleges' education programs, admission standards, training and value.
ETSU' Clemmer College of Education master's in teaching in elementary education ranked in the lowest 163 programs in the nation, according to the report.
In fact, many schools did not measure up to the reviewers' standards.
"A vast majority of teacher preparation programs do not give aspiring teachers adequate return on their investment of time and tuition dollars," the report said.
Many educators criticized the report methodology and conclusions, including ETSU Education Dean Hal Knight.
"East Tennessee State University's Clemmer College of Education is aware of a report by the National Council for Teacher Quality (NCTQ), a private organization that is not an official higher education accrediting body on the state or national levels," Knight wrote in a statement. "We have reviewed the NCTQ findings and have determined they have little to no value because of the flawed research methodology that was used."
Knight continued saying the research did not evaluate graduates who are teaching or pass rates for state licensure exams.
"The NCTQ methodology consisted solely of evaluating syllabi, student handbooks, university catalogs, and other selected documents for an ETSU education program whose curriculum was terminated earlier this year as part of a revisionary process that the Clemmer College of Education began five years ago," Knight wrote. "The NCTQ was made aware by ETSU that it had requested materials for a curriculum that had been terminated."
Knight said in a phone interview Wednesday afternoon that every graduate of a teacher training program at ETSU has passed the required licensing exams; any student who has not passed his or her required exams does not get a degree.
He also said graduates of the master's in teaching in elementary education program, the program given a consumer alert by NCTQ, have performed well in state teacher report cards the past few years.
Knight said materials from three other programs were submitted to NCTQ for analysis. Two of those programs received adequate reviews and another was not analyzed.
Tennessee Board of Regents Chancellor John Morgan said in an opinion piece that member colleges and universities during the past few years have been rewriting course curricula and rethinking the way teachers have always been trained. This effort has lead to the Ready2Teach program that focuses on student teachers learning in-depth content, applying problem-based learning and completing a year-long residency with experienced teachers in a P-12 classroom setting.
TBR governs ETSU.
Morgan said he expects the Ready2Teach program to address many of the concerns highlighted in the report and other quality assessment reports from the state.
"These ratings currently making news rely on data from years past – before the pilot Ready2Teach programs began – and as a result do not always reflect well on some of our institutions' teacher training programs," Morgan wrote.
Knight said as part of the College of Education revisioning process, students will now go through a "residency" that will require them to be in area schools part-time in the fall and full-time in the spring semesters.
Knight said ETSU administrators take teacher training seriously.
"As an institute of higher learning that was founded in 1911 as a teacher's college, ETSU considers the training of quality teachers to be a sacred trust between the university and the community," he wrote.

By JAY REED
A few weeks ago I had a birthday. It wasn't a milestone birthday — the kind that warrants its own section of "So, You're … Years Old" cards at Hallmark — but it was a nice round number. Being from a math-oriented family, I'm pretty adept at rounding to the nearest 10: If it ends in five or more you round up, and if it's four or less you round down. Simple. In so doing, however, this birthday math became somewhat unsettling. Overnight, it seems, I went from "about 40" (which is so close to 39 one might as well say it) to "about 50" (which is half a century). I didn't like that, so I decided to turn the math on its ear and use it for my own purposes by keeping count of the birthday-esque foods I would enjoy during my annual birthday week. So there.
Yes, I said birthday week. Life is too short to celebrate a birthday for only 16 or so waking hours, especially when one is about 50. The day began with a birthday sack full of goodies from the family. For breakfast, I was thrilled to find an apple fritter and a blueberry cake donut — my two most favorit-est things from the donut shop. My family knows me well. Also in the bag was a box of dark chocolate candies with raspberry filling, another of my favorite flavor combinations. Go family! On the savory-ish side was a jar of garlic-onion marmalade that is destined to glaze a big chunk of roast beast in the near future. Rounding out the goodie bag was perhaps the oddest of the lot: a package of cashews flavored with vanilla and studded with bits of pomegranate. I was a bit skeptical at first, though I have been a cashew fan for many years. But they were surprisingly good, and should I get a hankering for a pomegranate-studded nut once again, I would welcome another bag.
Though I was off work on the actual birthday, everybody else in my family was either busy or traveling, so we saved the dinner, cake and ice cream for a time when we could all get together. But I certainly wasn't going to settle for an ordinary day, at least not in what I ate.
(I know some of you are thinking, when DO you eat ordinarily, Jay? But it does happen. Really, it does).
By day's end, I ate with all the family, just not all at the same time. The theme of the day would be simple, but good.
For lunch, I was in the mood for a burger, so the Wife and I went to Christy's and shared a basket. Being my birthday, I was not required to share, but I wanted to pace myself. Mission accomplished — not a fancy burger, not a gourmet burger, but an excellent burger.
At dinner time Wife had another commitment, so the Kids and I met the Folks at C.J.'s for another simple staple: pizza. It was a good choice: great pizza with interesting topping combinations, fun with the fam, and a good close to the birthday. But the birth week was just beginning.
I had to work in Oxford the following two days, so that again made it difficult for all of us to get together for the "official" celebration, but it also opened up opportunities for some good celebratory road food. At work, my colleagues let me pick the lunch spot and even picked up the tab. Just that week I had seen the Bizarre Foods episode that featured spots from Memphis down through the Mississippi delta, including a meat-and-three joint in Oxford, so that's the place I chose: Mama Jo's. When I called to see what she had that day, among the meats were neck bones, pig's feet and chitlins. I ordered fried chicken (another old birthday tradition), but if she had been offering pig's ears, as I knew she did from time to time, my order may have changed. On the way home that day, I stopped at Buck's in Calhoun City for a piece of caramel cake. Since I had plans for an unusual cake and ice cream combo in the days to follow (I wasn't sure how that would turn out), I needed to have at least one piece of birthday cake I could count on. On the other side of town, I stopped at Nancy's for an order of fried dill pickle spears. I keep her number in my phone for just such occasions.
On Sunday, we finally found a few minutes together for a more official celebration. My folks had celebrated their 49th anniversary the week before, so we had lots of reasons to party. Good parents that they are, they let me choose the restaurant. I was looking for a good steak, so we headed for The Veranda. The special that night was a ribeye with a Cajun cream sauce and a side of shrimp. Being a special night, I threw caution to the wind and ordered it all for myself.
(In other words, the sharing was over — I did let a few at the table try a bite, but I required a bite of their meal in return. Did I mention it was my birthday?)
And though I'm sure the grilled asparagus that came with it was very good, I opted for the tempura-battered version they offer because — are you ready — it's my birthday and I'll fry if I want to.
After dinner, we retired to the house to try my own bizarre foods: sweet corn cake and corn ice cream. But that tale will have to wait for a few more column inches. Stay tuned.

Smart Wire Grid may hold key to power transmission woes
A Bay Area company backed by a prominent Portland investor may hold the key to grid transmission issues that are throwing up roadblocks to renewable energy integration.
Smart Wire Grid Inc., backed by an Arnerich Massena-run private equity fund, is poised to start a nationwide pilot program to test its device, which attaches to power lines to improve the communication and performance of the grid.
"It goes on lines that are congested," said Woody Gibson, chief operating officer and founder of Smart Wire Grid.
As an example of what Smart Wire devices can achieve, consider the distinctly Northwest issue of overgeneration — times when an oversupply of water causes too much hydropower to overwhelm Bonneville Power Administration's system. This spring, for the second year in a row, the situation prompted BPA to require wind energy operators feeding into its system to suspend operations. A device like the one Smart Wire Grid is developing could address the issue from a transmission perspective by increasing the capacity on power lines.
Smart Wire Grid officials estimate that between $3 billion and $5 billion per year is lost due to grid congestion.
"What we're trying to do is pretty important to the power industry," Gibson said.
Employing the appropriate amount of skepticism for an early-stage investor, Tony Arnerich, CEO and chief investment officer for Arnerich Massena puts it this way: "If it works, it's the holy grail of electrical transmission."
Arnerich believes in the proposition enough that he's invested $7 million dollars so far in Smart Wire Grid, with another $3 million set aside to close out the Series A round later this year, providing that the company hits a final set of milestones.
Key to hitting those milestones is the launch of a one-year pilot program to test Smart Wire devices, which work by redirecting the flow on congested wires — think of electricity like water and transmission wires like a garden hose — to redirect the power flow to other lines on a connected system. (See details about the device here.) Early tests show that the devices, which contain software and transmitter to communicate with grid operators, can improve transmission system performance from using 60 percent of existing grid capacity to using 90 percent of capacity.
Smart Wire Grid technology was developed at Georgia Tech University and received a $4.4 million grant from the U.S. government's ARPA-E program last year to work with Boeing, Carnegie Mellon University and others to develop the transmission and communication aspects of the devices.
Tennessee Valley Authority, a $11 billion government-owned utility in the Southeast, has already signed on as a test user and will participate in the pilot.
"We received a lot of utility interest," Arnerich said.
The plan is to sign on two or three other utilities from other parts of the country to participate in the pilot. Gibson said he has had conversations with BPA about Smart Wire Grid.
The company is working with a contract manufacturer in St. Louis to develop the pilot production line and the company's first devices. Gibson said he's in talks with several states about where the company might eventually based its operations.
"We're looking for the state that offers us the best deal," he said.
In addition to its largest backer being based in Portland, Smart Wire Grid has another Oregon tie with former PacifiCorp CEO Fred Buckman sitting as chairman of its board of directors.
Gibson expressed interest in entertaining Oregon as a potential home base for Smart Wire Grid operations, but the company's lead investor said it might be a long shot.
"I would be tickled pink if it could come here. We would love to site it here," Arnerich said. "But we're not a manufacturing powerhouse and this is a heavy metal manufacturing business."

German flag carrier Lufthansa is seeking to offer its top-end Lufthansa Private Jet brand in North America before the end of the year through an agreement with US fractional ownership company NetJets. A similar venture is under way in Europe between LPJ and NetJets' Lisbon-based sister company.
Sabine Dörflinger, Lufthansa director for global premium customer management, said: "The product is growing very fast. US customers already account for between 15% and 20% of our business in Europe - they use Lufthansa's first-class transatlantic service and then connect to a private jet."
LPJ rekindled its venture with NetJets Europe earlier this year after a four-year separation. The original agreement called for NetJets to provide a business jet feeder service for Lufthansa's premium passengers to and from its German hubs. The relationship began to sour when increasing numbers of Lufthansa passengers began using the service for ad hoc flights. This put a strain on NetJets' resources at a time when business was booming.
"The new agreement gives our customers [impromptu] access to the NetJets fleet whenever they need it. It works well for both parties," said Dörflinger.
LPJ has acquired shares in NetJet's light and midsize fleet and has an access agreement to the operator's large and long-range aircraft. The tie-up with NetJets led to the closure of LPJ sister company and operations arm Swiss PrivateAviation and the sale is under way of its four Cessna Citation XLS+ and CJ3 business jets.
LPJ is holding talks with NetJets' US affiliate with a view to providing a similar venture in North America before the NBAA convention in October.
