This application is a U.S. non-provisional application which claims benefit from U.S. non-provisional application Ser. No. 11/226,763 filed Sep. 14, 2005 which claims the priority benefit from U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/609,660 filed Sep. 14, 2004.
The present invention is a temporary bridge as used with a dental appliance such as a retainer. More particularly, the invention relates to a pontic having a prefabricated channel or slot, such as a lingual channel therein, helping to ensure a secure mechanical lock with the dental appliance. The invention also pertains to a method of fabricating a dental appliance and a kit for facilitating the same. The invention has particular application to removable appliances.
Dental appliances are used for a multitude of dental operative procedures. For example, a suitable plastic tray can be used in an orthodontic procedure to move teeth, and can also be used in a post-procedure to retain the teeth in the desired position. Such trays are known and are formed from plastic materials such as Essix C+ or ACE, each available from Raintree Essix of Metairie, La.
These trays are often thermoformed over a model of the patient's dentition. If the patient is missing a tooth, then the void in the resulting dental model will cause problems with the subsequent thermoforming operation. Further, because dental appliances such as tooth movement trays and retainers are used with ongoing dental procedures, the patient often cannot benefit from the well established dental procedures for restoring such deficiencies. That is, until the treatment is over, the patient often cannot get a new bridge, crown or other restorative. During the treatment period then, the patient must tolerate the dental deficiency. One solution to helping alleviate the patient's problem has been to provide temporary bridges and the like using appliances known as flippers. A flipper is a temporary artificial tooth that is attached with either a wire or a plastic piece that fits in the roof of the mouth. This is uncomfortable at best although it may be aesthetically acceptable.
Another solution which is adapted for use with removable appliances such as tooth movement trays and retainers has been to affix a temporary crown into the appliance itself in the area of the patient's missing tooth. Thus when the patient wears the appliance, the temporary pontic is positioned in the missing tooth space and appears normal to a casual observer.
Further still it has been the practice to actually affix the pontic to the model of the patient's dentition, such that when the appliance is thermoformed over the model, the pontic is embedded in the resulting appliance. This also helps to overcome the problems associated with trying to thermoform an appliance over a model with a missing tooth. To help secure the pontic to the appliance, it has also been the practice to cut a channel in the pontic to help mechanically lock the pontic into the plastic during thermoforming. Such procedures are time consuming for the dental practitioner. A need exists therefore for a preformed pontic or set of pontics for use as temporary bridges with dental appliances. It should be simple and rapid for the dental practitioner to employ such pontics in the fabrication of the dental appliance.
There is provided according to the invention, a thermoformed dental appliance constructed by making an impression of a patient's dentition, constructing a dental impression cast from said impression, providing a pontic having a notch pre-formed therein and fitting same to the edentulous area of the cast, temporarily adhering the pontic to the cast, thermoforming a plastic sheet over the cast to form the appliance, while allowing the pontic to dislodge from the cast and mechanically lock into the appliance. The pontic may be selected from a plurality of pontics having different color, hue and or brightness characteristics or combinations thereof. The plurality of pontics may also have different sizes and shapes.
There is also provided according to the invention a method of constructing a dental appliance incorporating a pontic, comprising the steps of
Another method according to the invention for manufacturing a pontic comprises the steps of:
According to a still further inventive method, a method of building a dental bridge incorporating a pontic, comprises the steps of:
There is also provided according to the present invention, a kit for fabricating a dental appliance having at least one pontic affixed thereto, comprising a plurality of pontics of various size, shape, color, hue, brightness or combinations thereof; each said pontic of said plurality having a notch in one or more locations thereon.
The present invention relates to dental appliances such as temporary anterior bridges or the like, and particularly a dental appliance utilizing a modular, customizable assembly including one or more pontics, each having the mounting notch pre-formed therein during manufacture. As used herein, "notch" means any channel, cut, scrape, gouge, etch, trench, void or other indentation, whether of regular or irregular shape and size, without limitation. The pontic according to the invention may have one of more such notches placed at one or more locations thereon. As an example, the pontic as shown in
The preferred embodiment of the present invention thereby provides a temporary anterior bridge which requires less time and effort to fabricate, and is more economical in implementation. While the invention has application to any dental appliance, it is particularly suited for use with removable appliances thermoformed from plastic sheet materials. The notch 11 as described herein serves to physically engage the appliance during for example, the thermoforming of the appliance, and helps to secure the pontic to the appliance thereby formed.
Dental care providers have long been making temporary anterior bridges to simulate missing teeth in patients, for the patient to wear until a permanent solution can be provided. For this purpose, an off-the-shelf pontic, or artificial tooth, is employed to form a fixed partial denture or thermoplastic slip over appliance to replace the lost natural tooth, restore its function, and to occupy the space previously occupied by the natural crown. In the past, the pontic had to be prepared by notching same to facilitate securing it to the appliance, which requires additional steps which had to be performed by the dental caregiver.
Unlike the prior art, the present invention provides a ready-made pontic 10 which incorporates a notch 11 (
A selection of pontics 10, 10 a and 10 b is thereby formed of various sizes and colors, hues, brightness or combinations thereof, already having a notch 11 or trench formed in the outer surface of the pontic. In the case of thermoplastic slip on, that is removable appliances, the notch may preferably be formed on the lingual surface, as will be shown on the present drawings.
During manufacture, each pontic is formed by injection molding or the like, which molds may include means to form the notch or ridge to facilitate securing the pontic to the appliance. A variety of sized, shaped, and colored pontics are provided for use by the dental care provider in his/her practice to best match the missing tooth or teeth of the patient.
In practice, an impression is made of the patient, and working cast is then formed for use in fabricating the appliance.
The attached figures illustrate utilizing the pontic 10 with a pre-formed notch 11 (
In the example illustrated in
Referring to
Once secured to the cast, a plastic sheet such as Essix C+, Essix A+ for children, or the like may be thermoformed over the cast utilizing an Essix brand vacuum thermoformer or the like over the thus prepared cast 20, resulting in the formation of dental tray appliance 30. Once thermoformed, the pontic 10 should dislodge from the cast 20 and mechanically lock into the appliance 30 as is depicted in
By "mechanically lock" and such terms it is considered that the preformed notch serves to physically engage material from the plastic appliance in a manner that the physical interaction therebetween holds, grabs or otherwise secures the pontic to the appliance.
In order to facilitate the fabrication of a dental appliance such as tray 30 having a pontic 10 according to the present invention, the invention also provides a kit for fabricating the dental appliance. The kit includes a plurality of pontics as above of various size, shape, color, hue, brightness or combinations thereof as discussed hereinabove. Each pontic of the inventive plurality has a notch in one or more locations thereon, as also described hereinabove.
The inventive kit may also include a dental compound for temporarily affixing at least one of the pontics to the dental model. An example of such an affixing compound is a blockout compound such as Triad Gel available from DENTSPLY International of York, Pa. The material used to affix the pontic to the model should not be a permanent adhesive, but may be a reversible adhesive. The material preferably is able to withstand melting at the subsequent thermoforming temperature, has suitable strength to hold the pontic in place during such procedures but is easily removable such that once the tray is removed from the model the bond between the compound and the pontic is readily and easily broken. The kit may include for example, at least one pontic having a notch that is a lingual channel or any such shape, location or number of notches. The kit also preferably includes pontics in the shapes of upper and lower anterior and posterior teeth or combinations thereof.
It is reiterated that the pontic and its use in the above illustration is for exemplary purposes, and the notch location and configuration can vary depending upon the application and appliance used.
The invention embodiments herein described are done so in detail for exemplary purposes only, and may be subject to many different variations in design, structure, application and operation methodology. Thus, the detailed disclosures therein should be interpreted in an illustrative, exemplary manner, and not in a limited sense.

Lay persons and some chemists complain that newly synthesised and other exotic elements are of no practical use, and that any attention paid to them is more or less a waste of time. How wrong they are is demonstrated by James Mitchell Crow's interesting article "Unsung elements" (18 June, p 36).
It is good to see the elements and the periodic table gaining popularity. As well as my own book The Periodic Table, there have been bestsellers on the subject from Sam Kean and Hugh Aldersey-Williams.
In addition, suggestions for new versions of the table continue to proliferate, and there is an increasingly serious debate on its optimal form and whether that is a matter of convention rather than scientific truth.

Album Summary
- J�rg Widmann (Clarinet)
- Carolin Widmann (Violin)
Notes & Reviews:
Prolific contemporary composer Wolfgang Rihm will celebrate his 60th birthday this year. This, the 6th installment in Haenssler Classic's critically acclaimed survey of Rihm's orchestral music, features two very melodic concertos. Both works feature the phenomenally talented siblings Jörg (clarinet) and Carolin (violin) Widmann.
The Guardian
[Uber die Linie II ] must be one of the most substantial, an exacting test of any clarinettist's control and stamina. The soloist plays almost continuously throughout the 37-minute work that the orchestra sometimes supports and accompanies, sometimes contradicts. The music is full of allusions to past styles, and its effect is fragile and haunting.
American Record Guide, July / August 2012
Both pieces are rewarding in their own way, and worth hearing if you're up to a musical and intellectual challenge. The violinist has a few intonation problems and gets buried a few times, but the clarinetist stands tall. Sound is satisfactory; notes are in English and German.

Members of Parliament under the Parliamentary Forum on Oil and Gas (PFOG) have dismissed President Yoweri Museveni and Prime Minister Amama Mbabazi's allegations that they were bribed by foreign oil companies.
While addressing Parliament on Thursday, the President said he had asked the Inspector General of Government (IGG) to investigate circumstances under which some MPs were paid huge sums of money to push through foreign interests in the Oil Bill.
Describing PFOG led by Lwemiyaga MP Theodore Ssekikubo as a group of saboteurs and agents of foreign interests, the President alleged they had compromised MPs with money ranging from sh1m to sh5m.
Addressing a press conference at Parliament on Friday, Ssekikubo said, "We want to tell Ugandans that in all our deliberations in Parliament, we were under no foreign interests except the interests of Ugandans."
He explained that all the amendments they influenced in the Bill amounting to 98 clauses were aimed at ensuring that all Ugandans benefit from the oil resource.
"The original Bill government had brought wanted to create a national petroleum company owned by individuals and we successful pushed for an amendment to turn it into a state company owned by all Ugandans. Is that pushing for foreign interests?" Ssekikubo argued.
Ssekikubo also told journalists that he had already served the Prime Minister Amama Mbabazi with a notice to sue him over his allegations published in a local newspaper that he had received 700,000 dollars to push for foreign interests in the Oil laws.
"I have decided to take to court both Mbabazi and the newspaper to court for defamation. Let him produce evidence that I got that money. Let President Museveni who made similar allegations help him to bring up evidence against me," Ssekikubo said.
Speaking angrily, Bugweri county MP Abdu Katuntu said they (PFOG) the President had made lies since they are the ones who started the oil debate last year in October in a special Parliament session after which they made resolutions which required government to quickly bring the oil laws.
"Before our move last year in October, the President had never addressed the nation any single day on the oil transactions yet he said he started the process in 1986. Even his former Vice President Prof. Gilbert Bukenya is one of those who put signatures on the petition to recall parliament from the recess to ask for accountability in the oil transactions. This means even his cabinet ministers were not aware of what was going on," Katuntu explained.
Ndorwa West MP Wilfred Niwagaba said if the President does not adhere to the citizens' voices calling for reconsideration of clause 9 of the Petroleum (Exploration, Development and Production Bill), they would either challenge the law in courts of law or push for a referendum on the matter.
"If President Museveni is honest as he claimed, let him publish in the New Vision all the oil production agreements he has signed with the oil companies. Let him tell us how much money in total we have so far received in oil and what it has done. Those are the details we expected from him not his bush war tales," Niwagaba said.
Kalungu West MP Joseph Ssewungu expressed disappointment over MPs like Jim Muhwezi who earlier indicated they opposed the President's position of giving powers to energy minister to grant and revoke oil licenses but voted for the opposite on the voting day.

1. I like the idea of limiting the number of customs that can be submitted in a day. I'm not sure what the magic number should be, maybe 3? What do the people who submit customs think? However, this will not solve much. It will only slow down the problem, but it will keep more of a variety with the new submissions.
2. Duplicate submissions is a problem. There is no way to automatically filter these, and there are just too many customs for the Regulators to recognize them all. The only initial idea I have on this is a "Report Duplicate" link that users can use to report duplicates, but this will be a slow process and give the Regulators more work to do (but I assume we could always recruit more Regulators).

geographies of time, weekdays
While municipal boundaries (zip codes or administrative boundaries) are actually necessary to provide order and organization to the city, they are not reflecting how people actually live and perceive areas.
The specific goal here is to build novel maps of city areas' boundaries, mapping the different patterns of use (activities on Social Media) on specific areas of the city, and aiming to derive and represent new boundaries of the city neighborhoods: evolving, interplaying and overlapping.
By measuring social media activities (e.g. profile of people sharing from a place, characteristics of venues of the place, "pulsation" of social media activities
according to diverse timestamps in the place, typology of pictures people take in different areas, etc etc) in specific places of the city we aim at identifying some initial clustering operations highlighting similarities and drawing novel boundaries of those area sharing a strong "identity".
This experiment will build novel geographies out of Social Media data production, rather than confirming / evaluating existent and well known ones. Goegraphies of time is the first of a series of spatial aggregation based on Social media. Areas are defined and coloured according to the time period of the day they are pulsing the most.
The city geography is strongly related to the use of urban areas during the two different parts of the day: working hours and non-working hours.
Among the most interesting and well highlighted clusters identified are:
The business areas (where administrative centres, banks and large company headquarters are located) San Babila, Duomo Missori, Porta Garibaldi, and Repubblica, as well as those areas close to the Central station and Cadorna, are populated during office hours: 9am-6pm
The area in the south of the city (Navigli, Porta Ticinese and Porta Romana) is still mainly visited in the evening (from 6pm until midnight).
Porta Venezia, Brera, Sempione, Corso Como and via Cenisio are also densely populated in the evening and night.
The university campuses (Politecnico Leonardo, Politecnico Bovisa, Bicocca) fill up during lesson hours.

This dramatic image was taken by one of the cameras in the Desert Fireball Network that we'll be visiting in the Nullabar. The white streak across the bottom of the picture is a meteorite fireball, shooting across the sky in the middle of an electrical storm. Less than ten of the 32,000 or so known meteorites have their falls recorded by camera or video.
As well as looking for meteorites, one of our most important tasks will be to check that the cameras are working correctly, and fix any problems that we find.

6 eggs, beaten4 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil or safflower oil12 flat teaspoons of potato starch1/4 (pinch) teaspoon of saltpinch of black pepper
With whisk or electric mixer, beat 6 eggs until well combined. Add 12 flat teaspoons of potato starch; blend thoroughly with whisk or fork. Add a pinch of salt.Pre-heat a small non-stick frying pan; add some oil.
Pour about 2 tablespoons of the egg batter into the frying pan.
Swirl mixture as you would a crepe or omelet until pan bottom is covered. When crepe is done (set and very lightly browned), turn on to waxed paper or parchment paper.
Continue this process until all egg mixture is used. (Stir batter with whisk if it starts to settle). Do not be concerned if the crepes are uneven!When finished, roll each crepe tightly and slice through with a sharp knife. Each strip should be about one-fourth inch wide and, when unrolled, resemble a noodle.
Put in soup plate just before adding hot soup or add to simmering soup just minutes before serving. Enjoy!

When it comes to design latitude, logos created for restaurants and food service industry companies have perhaps the widest range available. In no other design category does the corporate identity reflect the character and personality of the company itself. The direction of the image is often dictated by economical factors – does the restaurant, bar or grill wish to market themselves as an upscale trendy eatery? Or more along the lines of a budget, fast food hamburger, pizzeria, sandwich shop or grill? Does the restaurant specialize in particular cuisine – Indian, Chinese or Mexican to name a few – and are there cultural implications of same? Does the eatery wish to appeal to a conservative crowd or the weekend party market who are more likely to identify with a design that features zany characters or mascots?
Many restaurants also like to market their own line of marketing paraphernalia – clothing, mugs and hats for example, and that is often a factor in deciding the type of imagery required – a "would I wear a T-Shirt with this logo printed on it?" part of the equation. Colors play a large part of the use of the design (though not in its development – most logos are originally created in black and white) and that would be dependent on the target audience. While conservative restaurant logo projects generally lean towards muted colors, younger, less establishment customers would generally find brighter, more vibrant color themes.

Chris Harrison: Bachelor Sean Lowe Eliminated "The Love Of His Life"
Who knows what Chris Harrison gets up to when he isn't uttering the sentence "ladies, please say your goodbyes," but apparently dude has a lot of opinions about Sean Lowe's love life. Chris has been treated to a front-row seat of Sean's emotional love journey, and this week he watched as Sean sent Desiree Hartsock and her heart full of socks packin'.
"I'm pretty sure he let go of the love of his life," Chris tells TV Guide. "I'll be interested to see if he'll say he regrets it. I know she was head over heels in love with the guy....It's like, 'What are you doing? This is wrong; you shouldn't be breaking up.' It didn't feel right."
Of course, Desiree and Sean's breakup was a direct result of Sean's less-than-bromantic show down with Des' brother. "Sean is really particular about being able to see himself as a part of the family," Chris says. "What you didn't see is the first conversation they had went great! Then her brother came back, did a 180 and went crazy. I heard about it later and asked if the producers did something and they said, 'No, we have no idea what the hell happened.' It made no sense."
Sean and Des might be over thanks to her bro, but we have a feeling this gal would make a great Bachelorette, and it looks like Chris is one step ahead of us! "I take my response off of Twitter and so far she has had the biggest response," he says. "Sarah got a decent response and we'll see what happens next week, but right now Des is a big front-runner. She's the beautiful girl-next-door that you want to wish well."
We'd definitely tune into Desiree's season of The Bachelorette, but we're not sure if we agree with Chris' theory about this gal being the love of Sean's life... After all, dude stared at her portrait long and hard, and seemed pretty comfortable with his decision to send her home. Do you think he made a mistake?

Summer Physics Credit
Credit Approval Policy
Summer Course Approval forms are available in the Registrar's Office. The forms are to be returned to the Registrar, by the student, by the deadline of May 1.
Requests after the deadline should be submitted to the Committee on Student Standing and Programs (CSSP) chair.
- Physics courses taken in summer school at other institutions must satisfy these requirements to be awarded Haverford credit:
- The course must have a similar coverage (including at least mechanics, electricity and magnetism, and optics)
- The course must have a regular laboratory that includes all of these components
- The course must be at a quality institution with a strong reputation.
Advice for Biology majors and pre-medical students: You should be aware that many courses offered elsewhere for life sciences and pre-medical students are taught at a mathematical level that is unsuitable for Haverford credit, though they may meet pre-medical requirements. Others (generally intended for physical science and engineering students) are at a calculus-based level, but are often poorly matched to the needs and interests of Haverford premedical and biology students. Because this problem limits the availability of summer courses that are both educationally appropriate and creditworthy, we believe that Haverford Physics 101-102 is a superior choice if you can fit it into your schedule.
Students who plan to take the MCAT exam will be especially interested that we have studied the performance on the MCAT of Haverford students who took their required physics courses here compared to those who took them elsewhere. We noted that over the years 1998 to 2004, students taking physics at Haverford scored an average of 10.0 in their physics physical science MCAT test, while those who took it elsewhere scored an average of 9.2. Of the students taking physics at Haverford 63% received MCAT scores of 10 or higher, compared to 45% for those taking it elsewhere. (Similar distributions held in both cases. This difference is statistically significant at the 95% level. You can view the complete results online.)
To obtain our approval for physics summer courses, please email the following information to the Physics Department Chair (email@example.com) with the subject "Physics Chair: summer course approval request":
- Institution
- Name and number of the course
- Course Description (verbatim copy) including mathematical prerequisites
- Brief description of the laboratory (including a list of experiments if possible)
- Textbook author, title, and publisher, and if possible a printout of the book description from the publishers web site
- Your e-mail address
- The Registrar's form for Summer School Course Credit, filled out to indicate the institution, the exact name of your course, including its number, that you are taking both the lecture and laboratory components of each course for 1.0 credit total, and for NA credit. You are responsible for getting all approvals and filing this form with the Registrar if it is approved.
Please make sure that all of this information is included. After submission, we will contact you within a few days, most likely by e-mail. If you have questions, please send e-mail to the Chair.

You mail host whether it be parent company or it be a franchise or it be yourself needs to make a change to the way mail is handled.. You do not seem to be the right person to handle this type of conversation. It would be inadvisable to do anything mail related on your server if you do not have access to the mx record or the ip endpoint where mail for your company gets sent to. What I would do on my mail server is to create what is called a distribution group that has a mail address then I would put people into that group and when that group receives a message everyone would get copied. But I manage and control the mail server and can make it do anything I want it to, space for over 500 employees is over a gig a mailbox not 10 mb.
I am well versed in how I would ultimately like to achieve this. I'm not just some dumb employee. It is as simple as I've stated, I don't have access to the domain, and I will not be getting any changes made to the domain, or the account to achieve what I want.
If I had access to the domain, simple, I'd do it via Outlook.com like I do with all of my personal domains.
I've decided to go the easy route and registered a domain. Our IT guy is happy to put an email forwarder on it.
Thanks for all the help guys.

This sounds like the age old story of say a department i.e Legal,HR,Engineering etc going out and doing their own thing with "computers" whatever it maybe, Buying a software package, Using a 'Cloud' Provider etc etc then ringing Internal IT when it stops working or they need support and to top it off blaming Internal IT. Its happened to all of us, Right??

Given this is exactly what my IT dept. has told me to do, I guess you're incorrect.
I can't believe, given my posts, I'm still being told to talk to IT. I've given all the information about what's going on here.

Depending on your company's budget, I would suggest setting up a Microsoft SBS 2011 Standard server, and utilize POP3 connectors to pull your POP3 provided email into your local email exchange, hosted by the Microsoft Exchange 2010 component of SBS 2011. There is at minimum, a 5-minute delay to receiving email as the SBS server periodically checks for email on the POP3 accounts
Email is received by 10MB POP3 email account hosted with headquarters
SBS 2011 POP3 connector downloads email from headquarters periodically
Downloaded email from POP3 connector gets mapped to Microsoft Exchange mailbox
We have this working successfully for a realestate franchise we support who are provided POP3 accounts by headquarters. The trade-off is having a delay with receiving email. If you have a lot of email accounts, I do not suggest checking the POP3 server every 5 minutes.

photo reference
I finally got it through my thick skull to do a photo reference pic, this isn't the finished product, I just wanna hear what I'm doing wrong before I put too much time into it. EDIT: Jeeze, I already see ten things I messed up
(and yes, this is the most appropriate picture I could find)
Again, be as harsh and brutal as you deem necessary, the only way to learn is through painful, painful failure. (ignore the shading though, it's just a rush-job placeholder)

Thanks for posting this. It makes feel good (to see you're using references). You are also weird.
OK. The main problem is that you're not measuring acurately. See where an element falls in relation to two or three other things. This is rampant throughout the piece. To help you start off, you can use a grid and just translate the image over. Some think this is cheating, but you're training your eye and soon you won't need the grid.
Also realize that line weight indicates value shift when you aren't serious about adding values. What little variation there is in your line weight is usually opposite of what you want (hos left fist is a perfect example).
There are a lot of things to think about, but as soon as you're aware of them, you can start working on them and they will become natural with practice.

The second one is looking ALOT better. Be careful of the ass cheek though, it's more curvy than it should be.
A bit of advice Hurricane gives everyone:
Look, Look, Draw.
Look at subject, compare with piece. Do it again. Draw a few lines you memorized. check those lines, then go to the next part. My suggestion- Leave value out until you finish lines. Keep being weird, you sell more shtuff that way.

NOYES® optical fiber identifiers (OFIs) are simple, rugged, easy-to-use test instruments that detect the presence of signals on optical fiber. OFIs are simply clamped onto a fiber where they induce a safe macro-bend in the fiber which allows a small amount of light to escape. By collecting and analyzing the light, the presence of network traffic, test tones and CW signals is detected and the direction of signal flow is determined.
NOYES OFIs are designed for inside plant and outside plant applications. Their rugged, drop-proof construction promises years of service. Designed for maximum battery life, OFIs feature automatic power down circuits that enable thousands of fibers to be tested before battery replacement is necessary. Thousands of units are in use today around the world.
AFL just increased the warranty period on these products to five years...at least two years greater than the industry average. Why? Because our products are rugged and dependable...truly second to none!

Thank you for your patience.
Everyone at EntirelyPets!

Angels Eyes is the first product specifically developed for both dogs and cats to eliminate tear stains from the inside out. Angels Eyes also helps to eliminate staining around the mouth and coats due to licking. Angels Eyes starts working before the tear stains begin and never adds food dyes or wheat which can have negative effects on your pet. All ingredients are products of the USA.
As you keep trimming the stained areas, the newly grown coat will be totally clear. The growth pattern of your pet's coat will determine if it will be completely tear stain free anywhere from 3 to 5 weeks.
Angels Eyes® may help keep tear stains away by reducing oxidation released through tear ducts and may reduce the reddish brown colors that are binding with the animals hair. Extremely palatable.
Angels Eyes is safe during pregnancy and for puppies over 6 weeks old.
Find the right tear stain products for your pets need.
CLICK HERE for FAQ'S about angel's eyes.
Our Beagles looked like Alice Cooper, with dripping brown marks falling from their eyes. Angel Eyes has banished their bad girl look and given them the look of an angel! Now if Angel Eyes could only make them act like angels! Although there is no halo over their heads, their eyes are clean and bright!
UNBELIEVABLE difference! My two Bichon Frises looked so depressed with huge orange-brown stains cascading from their beautiful little black eyes and more orangey stains around their mouths. Within two weeks ONLY, new staining had stopped, so I trimmed back all the stained hair and the new growth is white, white, white and STAYING that way. One dog got a little lethargic and felt a little sick for a few days, so I reduced the dose to half and will contact the manufacturer about this little side effect. But I am THRILLED with the product and recommend it highly. My dogs look beautiful...finally. Yes, it is pricey, but the results are worth it to me. Simply WOW.
I have a Bichon & Maltese they both had developed the stains around the eyes, mouth, & legs. It was really bad. I had asked the vet and so many others what I could do. They said it just happens to some dogs. Why don't they recommend this product? I saw your product in my pet catalog, that's how I found it. I started using Angel Eyes in July and I could not believe the difference in just a few weeks. They both are now snowy white from head to toe. I'm a believer in your product and will continue to use it. This product really DOES WORK. Thanks for coming to my rescue. Angels' Eyes is 10 stars in my book. L. Maxwell
I have 2 white dogs and their eyes were covered with the brown yeast that is common with white fluffy dogs. With angel eyes I could see a difference within the first month! Now they are all white no more nasty wet brown spots. This 3 pack of angel eyes is the best value on the internet. The most grams for your money.
I purchase this product for my Bichon Frise, who has severe allergies. She reacts to things by having her skin turn bright red. This redness is evident on her stomach, around her eyes and the inner skin of her ears. Although it is not a rash it does cause her discomfort. No redness occurs anywhere on her body if she is taking Angel Eyes. This is an excellent product.

New oven
Hi everyone, I am new here. be gentle!
I am in the wet lands of England but I still love a good barbequeue (no, not the usual Trd. Brit. pile of burnt offering jammed between a bun and covered in ketchup) and I think it's time to move up to a pukker oven. Furthermore, I have no oven at the moment due to building works and it's two weeks to Christmas!
Would I get a brick oven up and running in time do you think?? I have nothing much else to do all day (yeah, as if).
good things come...
Consider you need a week (usually) to cure the oven properly. If you are an accomplished mason with several helpers, there is precedent for building an oven in 2 days (there are several masonry "workshops" that have done this with photoalbums of their progress on the web). For most of us it takes a few weeks just to acquire materials, individualize our use of the plans and excavate. Good luck!

maver, thanks for that. It'll be a decent project for the post-Christmas blues period!
David welcome aboard.
Please change your "handle" otherwise you will gets buckets of mail from spammers. If may need todrop yourself out of the forum and re-up or see if the moderator can help you out. You will definately want something else up there. Chip heads routinely get into forums and have written programs that look for users IDS in the text sectrions. You have just broadcasted your info to everyone.
One place to look for quick build Ovens of unusual design is at MHA. Once a year these folks have a meeting and they build and fire up a pizza oven in about 3 days. It later gets torn down and the materials are recycled for another project. This year they did a few unique things. They used soapstone for the floor rather than fire brick and the used an egg shaped floorplan rather than circular. One of these years I will be tempted to go to their annual meeting just to watch them build the oven. There seems to be a lot of hands on building and certificate testing too.

good luck with your new oven
I'm also uk based (hertfordshire) and intend to roast a leg of lamb outdoors this christmas eve/ day and as yet have made no preparation apart from to accrue a load of bricks from freecycle (some aren't even clean) . I'm pretty sure that what I eventually make will bear no resemblence to the polished versions described here, but unfortunately my partner has told a whole host of people that I'm going to do this so I'm committed (should be committed?)...I'd be interested to hear how your getting along.
It must be possible to build something in a short time period (famous last words)...I just guess it wont be too efficient on wood and might not last a long time, but surely if someone offered you a million quid to do it- you'd do it .
All the best..pete
Were I in your position (thankfully I'm not) -- I would do something I could take apart later and, either re-do, or re-use the materials.
For example, you could pour one 4" thick concrete pad (with some chicken wire) and a one 2" pad in forms and let them dry. Then raise the 4" one up to about 40" using dry stacked concrete blocks (I forget what they are called in English), to be your hearth. Lay a course of clay bricks on their sides for the cooking floor. Then, you could build square oven walls by mortaring standard clay bricks up about 20" -- leaving a door opening. Lay the second concrete pad on top. If you really were going for it, you could create a stone or concrete lintel to frame to top of the door open, so it would be shorter than the top of the oven.
Fire the oven, and your are off and running. The brick will absorb enough heat to cook, and while the design is imperfect, it would go up quickly. You would only have to make it large enough to hold the fire and the roast. Perhaps 24" square.
Take care, the outside of the bricks would get really hot. Hmmm.
OK everybody, would it work? Would you do it?

I wouldn't do it this way unless I absolutely had to. Would it work? Yes, for a while, but it would eat loads of wood. Then again, cuppa is definitely under the social and marital gun, so he's got no choice. Your quickie instructions are right on the money, James, and I don't think Herts. has much of a problem with frost this time of year. Just keep the tipsy guests away from the brick walls once the oven has been heated.
thank you for your advice...and dont laugh I'm serious!
...Hmmm...I hope I haven't come over as overly cocky with that last posting as I do respect experience! .Truth is, I hope to get this leg of lamb cooked and whilst I was surfing the web, I came across various methods of cooking. The simplest was the pit method...lighting a big fire over stones, clearing the ashes etc etc...then an adobe oven...and finally magnificent edifices worthy of wren and pompeii. Given my limited experience I thought of basically creating a small dome on a brick base...then smearing the whole lot with eg clayish soil from the garden...then lighting a fire, downing a bottle of wine for internal marination purposes and staying clear of the house on christmas morning whilst my 3 children trash the house and wait eagerly for their burnt/ raw leg of lamb. If all else fails I can always revert to the magnetron although I guess this will be difficult to integrate into my solution as I'll have to roll out a 200 foot extension lead and try to keep it clear of mud
It is actually my intention to build something non-permanent and I would rather avoid concrete in the first instance as it adds complexity to my simple mind and will be a pig to dispose of. Longer term...I was thinking of incorporating a spit in front of the open firemouth, to give the meat that lovely caramelised surface...and then to cook for longer at a lower temperature inside the oven. I have already had a couple of successful lamb leg spit roasts and thought this might be fun.
there you go...the worst that can happen is that we have a vegetarian christmas
Minimal risk?
Someone once taught me that minimizing the maximum downside risk was the right way to consider difficult decisions (MinMax). I have to say that a brick dome has considerable downside -- veggie Christmas.
If you are feeling brave, and want to make something wonderful (maximum upside) that might completely fall apart (maximum downside), it is definitely possible that you could build a brick dome using clay to hold it together. It is equally conceivable that it would fall down. The dome itself is the trouble spot. While self-standing, domes can be challenging.
If you are ready to start building, we are ready to help. We will wait to hear more.....
One more thing -- is that a bottle of Italian, Spanish or Australian? Chianti, Rioja, or Shiraz ? That could swing the decision.

When I was a kid, for the summer picnic, neighbors would dig a hole, line it with rock, build a fire all night, then shovel out the coals and roast a suckling pig in the prepared hole. As I recall, the hole was covered with just a piece of sheet metal roofing, so it could be lifted to check progress. You might do this with your freecycle brick, and have your footings partly dug for your oven project next summer.
Roast animals have been cooked this way since the dawn of human history.

Quick Chess
Quick Chess is both a chess variant and a great teaching aid. By limiting the squares and pieces, you still can get the full experience of the game but on a much smaller scale. This allows a faster game as well as a greater opportunity to get used to the mechanics of each chess piece.

Well done guys, loving the trailers and can't wait for the final film to be released!
Saw the premier at TIFF on Tuesday night. It was absolutely fantastic made me homesick for east Asia! It was also great to see and chat with the people responsible for this hilarious film. Well done, I'd see it again in a heartbeat!

Guys, thanks for the advices. I am inclined of going on for a while with this one as well. The thing is that the chain is not a no-namer... EK is quite well regarded, at least in the States. And was counting on him getting me home. Well, no problem, as long as we are OK and it will not break on us, is still fine.
Last night I've asked a guy in Chile in Punta Arenas (~700 kilometers from us) and he said it would take 48 hours to get the set from Santiago (and I do not know the price yet).
Also I've asked an Argentinian friend and he will try to find today if I have better chances going to Rio Gallegos in Argentina (~400 kilometers) for a new set.
So all in all I hope at least one of the 2 options will be OK and tomorrow we will head out that way hopping everything will be OK.
In the mean time camping and hopefully today visiting Perito Moreno Glacier as a "civilian" (meaning 80 kilometers of bus or hitchhiking. This should be fun :P)
We are exploring the
New World

Els Slots (The Netherlands):
The Dutch T-List nomination for an extension of the Frontiers of the Roman Empire has come as a surprise to me:
a. The Advisory Committee had concluded in 2010 that there was no coordination between the provinces and cities along the former Roman frontier line in the Netherlands on this subject. So there was insufficient steering and power behind a possible nomination.
b. There is nothing left to see!
The Romans arrived around 15 B.C. in what is now The Netherlands, and stayed intermittently for some 300 years. They constructed a number of fortifications along the Rhine river. Roman objects have been found in the moist ground along the river, and sometimes they even have been fished from the water.
The Roman remains in the Netherlands have the obscurity of the Pile Dwellings in the Alps or the Struve Geodetic Arc. Except for a single stone or two, there's nothing to warrant a visit. Museum Het Valkhof in Nijmegen probably is the best option to get a feel of what impact the Romans had on the Netherlands. In October 2011 I spent about an hour there, enjoying the sometimes surprisingly precious objects. The photo attached for example is a decorated silver Roman beaker.

Mississippi Valley Blues Challenge, 3 p.m.
The first Mississippi Valley Blues Challenge final round is being held at the festival this year with three bands vying for a chance to be named the victor. Each of the bands will play for 20 minutes, with the winner of the challenge qualifying for the 30th International Blues Challenge in Memphis, as well as receiving a paid bandshell slot in this year's Mississippi Valley Blues Festival – at 5 p.m. on Saturday, July 6.
The challenge started with three preliminary rounds at the sponsoring venue, The Muddy Waters in Bettendorf, where one band from each round advanced to the finals. The Mississippi Valley Blues Challenge preliminary rounds featured a strong field of competitors, including Harris Collection, the Jared Hughes Band, Mississippi Misfits, and Wheelhouse.
The three bands that advanced to the finals were the Chris Avey Band, Serious Business, and the Rock Island Rollers – playing Friday in that order.

Reverend Raven & the Chain-Smokin' Altar Boys, 3 p.m.
I agree with how its Web site describes Reverend Raven & the Chain-Smokin' Altar Boys as playing "traditional blues, straight up with a big dose of passion. With smoking grooves, served up with hot harmonica and smooth, stinging guitar, they play original songs peppered with nods to Slim Harpo, Little Walter, Jimmy Rogers, Billy Boy Arnold, Junior Wells, and the three Kings."
In 1971, the Reverend saw Freddie King in his hometown of Chicago. That's when Rik Raven decided he wanted to play guitar. After serving our country in the Navy, he came back stateside and settled in Wisconsin, where he backed up Madison Slim (longtime harmonica player for Jimmy Rogers) for 10 years. Eventually, he formed the Chain-Smokin' Altar Boys and started opening for greats such as B.B. King, Gatemouth Brown, and Elvin Bishop. The Wisconsin Music Industry awarded them "Best Blues Band" in 1999, 2000, 2004, 2005, 2008, and 2010.

Detroit Larry Davison & Chris Avey, 4 p.m.
Detroit Larry Davison and Chris Avey are both veteran blues musicians on the Quad Cities scene. They are both stellar performers – Larry on harp and Chris on guitar and vocals. Together, their acoustic act sounds like Maxwell Street transported to your front porch.
Larry is acknowledged by local listeners – including other harp players – as the best harmonica player in town. He's been a vital part of many bands, including the Ellis Kell Band and John Resch & the Detroit Blues. And he took the stage in Memphis as part of the Avey Brothers Band when they reached the finals of the Blues Foundation's International Blues Challenge in 2010. (They were the only real blues band in the finals, but the judges were after something else.)
You'll be seeing a lot of Chris Avey at the 2013 blues fest. Besides this acoustic set with Larry, Chris heads the Chris Avey Band (finalists in the Mississippi Valley Blues Challenge), and the Avey Brothers are the host band for the 2013 after-fest showcase.

Back in 2006, Arthur Samberg's Pequot Capital Management was the subject of an insider-trading investigation after the SEC found out Pequot, then helmed by Morgan Stanley CEO John Mack, had profited from using inside information on a Microsoft trade. The investigation was lengthy and high-profile, and Congress got involved, but in the end, the entity couldn't find evidence of any wrongdoing. Of course, as we now know, the SEC missed a lot of things back then, and so this past January they reopened the investigation. But this time, Samberg is giving up without a fight. Yesterday he announced in a letter to investors that he had reached a "painful conclusion" to wind down the firm, which currently manages around $3.47 billion.
"Public disclosures about the continuing investigation have cast a cloud over the firm and have become a source of personal distraction. With the situation increasingly untenable for the firm and for me, I have concluded that Pequot can no longer stay in business."
Samberg maintains he did nothing wrong. "I think this S.E.C. thing has just worn him down," Brad Alford, head of the investment firm Alpha Capital Management and an early investor with Mr. Samberg, told the Times. Sure, of course. SEC exhaustion. It's a real thing.

Henderson Clip Dissing UK Resurfaces
Even before he took the court for his first game with Ole Miss, Marshall Henderson wasn't shy about running his mouth.
Prior to the Rebels' Tuesday night home game against Kentucky, Drew Franklin of Kentucky Sports Radio unearthed a clip of the mercurial scorer when he signed with Ole Miss in April.
"I'm just glad I can play Kentucky next year and be like, 'Y'all think y'all were the national champions, I'll show you the real national champ,' " Henderson joked, referring to the junior college national title he won with South Plains (TX) College last spring around the same time the Wildcats won their title.
Unless you're a Kentucky fan, how can you not love the mischievousness with which Henderson makes this proclamation?

Calling Obama's Bluff
10:39 AM, Oct 12, 2012 • By JEFFREY H. ANDERSON
Yet the GOP ticket and the Republican party have now essentially stopped talking about the part of Obamacare that Americans — and independent voters — like least. Why? It seems Obama has successfully bluffed them into silence: If you bring up the mandate, he suggests, I'll remind people that Romney imposed an individual mandate in Massachusetts, and I'll claim I got the idea from him.
Romney and the GOP should call Obama's bluff — because, in truth, Obama is holding a weak hand. Yes, Romney imposed a mandate in his state. But that, as well as where Obama claims he got his idea from, is largely beside the point — as it doesn't change two key things.
First, it doesn't change the fact that the two presidential candidates are offering the American people a binary choice on this issue going forward. Obama wants to keep the mandate that Ohio voters in all 88 counties want to scrap; Romney wants to repeal it (along with the rest of Obamacare). The choice could hardly be clearer.
Second, it doesn't change the fact that, unless Obamacare is repealed, this will mark the first time in all of American history that the federal government will compel private American citizens to buy a product or service of the federal government's choosing. State governments often require state residents to buy things — car insurance, for example. But for the federal government to do so is to break new ground.
In this case, the mandated product or service would be health insurance that, among many other requirements (most of which would be given shape by the subsequent decrees of Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius) must offer "free" (that is, paid for collectively) birth-control pills, sterilization, and coverage of the abortion drug ella. In the future, the mandated product or service could be GM-made "green cars," a certain quota of "healthy" food selected by a panel of bureaucratic experts or the first lady, or some product that just happens to be manufactured in Nancy Pelosi's congressional district or by a major Obama donor.
If this sounds paranoid, remember that Obama and his Democratic cohorts have already decreed that the free men and women of America must buy health insurance that many of them don't want, that many of them find morally objectionable, and that most of them seem to regard as an unacceptable violation both of their liberty and of their right to keep the fruits of their own labor.
One additional point is worth mentioning. It's Obama, not Romney, who's most vulnerable to the charge of inconsistency on this issue. Romney supports a mandate for Massachusetts (perhaps the most liberal state in America) while opposing a federal mandate that would apply to every state, regardless of the profound differences in those states' wants or desires. That's certainly a tenable position. Candidate Obama repeatedly opposed a federal mandate; President Obama then imposed one from coast to coast. That's a flip-flop.
The good news is that there are still three-and-a-half weeks remaining until Election Day. That's plenty of time for the Romney camp, and the GOP as a whole, to remind voters in Ohio and elsewhere that one of the decisions they'll be making when they pull the lever on November 6 is whether they want to be compelled to buy health insurance of the federal government's choosing — or not.

text: I just wanted to know what do you guys recommend for the most bang for your buck on Linksys Routers? I currently do a lot of streaming of video from one room to the other so Dual Band wireless N is a must have. I would also need something with the AC format once they finalize that if they haven't already, so that I have room for future devices. My current setup is a wrt54g router but the wifi isn't used much. For the other rooms I currently use a Linksys powerline setup for the Mac mini that acts as a media center that streams to an apple TV. I have 2 other built Windows 8.1 pcs that are overdue for wireless card upgrades (so any Linksys recommendations there are appreciated too). Lastly is flashing to DD-WRT worth it?

A stark study of life in Britain's legal black hole by Edmund Clark
It almost goes without saying that during the so-called War on Terror, certain things went on that in retrospect should make us pretty uncomfortable. Control Orders arguably fit into this bracket, legal restrictions for suspected terrorist sympathisers who could be held in their homes without charge or trial.
A new book from photographer Edmund Clark takes on this controversial issue head-on, by focussing on a suspect – named only as CE – who has been placed under Control Order. Edmund immersed himself in this man's life, despite warnings that anything he documented would be admissible to the state's case against this individual.
The resulting book is a remarkable reflection of a manifestation of national paranoia, but crucially it doesn't feel overly political – rather it uses a nicely simplistic approach to flag up the paroxysms of panic that gripped us in the inglorious decade of the 2000s. Through redacted documents relating to CE's case and an approach to the photography which makes even the most prosaic details suddenly feel intimidating and oppressive in this context, Control Order House is a sterling achievement, an oddly unsettling impersonal documentation of one man's struggle with the system.
Control Order House by Edmund Clark is published by Here Press and available from "the webiste": www.herepress.org

Leaving Edisto Island looks like this: first, you drive past the one grocery store and hardware store, then the bookstore and pink building that used to hold a gift shop and the house with the mattress swing in the front yard. After that, you reach the gas station and the barbecue place and a little ways down the road you drive between two white, old, moss laden churches. Right before you drive over what we like to call the big bridge, you pass Geechee Boys where you can pick strawberries in the spring and sit in their big red rocking chair. Once you drive over the big bridge, mostly marshes carry you right on up to the four-way stop in Hollywood, South Carolina.
I've been counting all of those landmarks backwards and forwards every summer since second grade, when we first spent a summer week on that slow island. It's and-then-some now since my parents made a home on the backside of the island. It's the part where the ocean is really the sound and you can see dolphins just about any old time.
We counted the leaving landmarks on Labor Day. We had rushed down for an afternoon, spend the night, pile in the car, drive back quick type of visit. We were smushed into the van with tires rolling back home. I could smell coconut swirling up from the back and my skin was still a bit greasy, hot and pink-tinged. Everyone was grainy, sandy and moping back toward real life.
I was caught up in that moment–bemoaning falling back into the rush of the everyday–when I noticed the first yellow flip and flutter on the side of the road. We were in the salty, sour, marshy part of the trip and it seemed like just a trick of sunlight on a weedy leaf. I saw it again. The soft and quick beating of tiny yellow wings: sulphur butterflies. I saw another one and another one until I decided I might as well go on ahead and count them.
I was well into the twenties when Tom called me back to the present with a question about school or sports or some other obligation type thing.
"I've counted twenty-seven butterflies since we crossed the big bridge," I answered.
"28." He jumped right in.
And then we were all together: five people watching every tall, straggle of a bush looking for that drip of God's yellow paint fluttering up and over. A few were orange. A few were monarchs. Most were the purest, lightest, brightest yellow–straight from a loving Artist's hands. We counted down backroads all the way up to the edge of the highway, the place where we joined the rest of the world on I-95 and bustled on.
110. We counted one hundred and ten butterflies that day.
Some memories come ready-made, already taking shape against a white screen with blinking letters. Others fight against being shaped and bound with words. This is one of those memories. I've wanted to write it down since that day, that moment–already trying to tie it down. This one strained against being turned into a lesson to be tucked away for later.
For one hour on a late summer afternoon, my theology was absolutely my reality. My eyes watched and waited and hoped for something small but beautiful. Every moment we spotted yellow wings on a green background, we rejoiced like crazy. We added up in beautiful awe.
God chose a small and insignificant people to call His very own possession. He chose a small and young man to call the king of His very own people. He chose to reach out to us in the smallest yet greatest of ways: His own Son, wrapped in baby skin, laying in lowly hay.
Who am I not to esteem the small and count it every single time?
