Quick & Easy (and Yummy) Apple Tart
If you want to make a very quick, very easy dessert that also happens to yield impressive results, look no farther than the freezer section of your grocery store, where you can find frozen sheets of ready-made puffed pastry. Puffed pastry is a magical substance—it looks like nothing in the package, but bakes into a puffy, golden, textural substance that make the perfect crust for fruit tarts, chocolate pastries, hors d'oeuvres…the list goes on.
The other night before we left for New York City, I whipped up an apple tart. My mom happened to be visiting that night and hadn't seen me make it, and when she took a bite, her eyes rolled into the back of her head.
"WHAT is THAT?" she moaned. (My mom loves food. Just like me.)
"It's…an apple tart, Mom," I answered.
*More groans* "HOW did you make this?" she asked.
"Never mind that, Mom," I answered. "Now go do my laundry. And hurry up about it! Our plane leaves early in the morning."
Wasn't that a beautiful story? I thought you'd enjoy it.
To make the apple tart (or tarts), you need frozen puffed pastry. It's sold next to the pies and pastries in the freezer section of your supermarket, and usually comes two sheets to a package. The sheets are tri-folded, so they look like rectangles.
Allow the rectangles to thaw on the counter for about twenty minutes, then carefully unfold them. This is one sheet of puffed pastry.
Then, to make the tarts, we can take two different approaches here. One, you can cut the sheet into three thinner rectangles, which means you'd just cut along the existing scores. This will result in three smaller tarts, with less "puff" around the sides.
You can cut the sheet in half, which will result in more puff around the edges. Either way is fine.
Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray, then place the puffed pastry rectangles on the pan. Don't let it get too soft and mushy; place it in the freezer for a couple of minutes if it needs it.
Then slice the apples as thinly as you can.
When they're sliced, throw them into a bowl…
And squeeze lemon juice all over the apples. I squeezed half a lemon over these.
Next, add about a cup of brown sugar. Yes, I said a cup. I know it seems excessive, but…well, you know me.
Finally, sprinkle in about 1/4 teaspoon salt. This just balances all the sugar we just threw in and negates pretty much all of its calories.
No. Not really.
Gently stir together the apples.
Let them sit for a few minutes so they'll get nice and juicy. And try a slice—delicious!
When you're ready, simply lay the apple slices in a straight line on top of the puffed pastry, overlapping them as you go. As you can see, this is the thinner rectangle of pastry, and the apples just about fill up the space.
This is the wider piece. See the extra space around the edges?
Now you're ready to bake them! Bake at 415 degrees for 18 to 20 minutes, keeping an eye on things toward the end. You really do need to bake the tarts long enough for the pastry to sufficiently puff, and sometimes it doesn't finish puffing until the very end.
NOTE: Because of the juice and sugar in the apples, you should expect there to be some dripping and oozing (gross word!) of liquid. Don't be alarmed! Just remove the tarts from the pan as soon as you pull them from the oven and you'll be fine.
Gawgeous. Simply gawgeous. And it looks like I spent a lot more time on it than I did. It seriously took five minutes (minus the thawing and baking time) to throw together.
You can serve it plain, as is, OR you can drizzle a tablespoon or so of caramel topping all over the top. Perfection. You can also just serve it with sweetened whipped cream. Yummy.
I like sprinkling it with sifted powdered sugar.
Then I just cut a couple of thin slices…
And serve it with vanilla (or cinnamon) ice cream.
(I like using a smaller ice cream scoop. Makes it seem a little more special.
Next time you want to impress guests with all the skills you learned at the International Pastry Academy (not!), whip out some puffed pastry and make an apple tart.
It'll become one of your go-to desserts in no time flat.

Debbie from GA On Thursday, May 28 at 9:56 am
I'm so going to make apple tarts this weekend. Looks wonderful. I've found you can't go wrong with puff pastry. It's wondrous stuff.
Taracooks.com On Thursday, May 28 at 10:05 am
I woke up in a blueberry mood, but you just rectified that for me
carol On Thursday, May 28 at 10:10 am
That'll work!
Jamie On Thursday, May 28 at 10:15 am
i wonder how it would taste if you used cheesecake filling and maybe some strawberries or cherry pie filling?? mmmm, i'm thinking i know what i'm picking up at the store later…yum yum…
beyond On Thursday, May 28 at 10:16 am
this looks delicious and very simple. thank you!
Stephanie S On Thursday, May 28 at 10:18 am
Great – now i HAVE to have this!
TaraB in OKC On Thursday, May 28 at 10:21 am
No butter?!?! I can't believe you made a dessert without butter! (grin) Looks yummy. I may make this tonight!
Valerie in MI On Thursday, May 28 at 10:25 am
Crap. Now I'm starving… and I just ate!
Jody On Thursday, May 28 at 10:25 am
Such an easy quick dessert, can't wait to be invited to someone's house so I can take a couple of these. Maybe one with apples and another with peaches or pears…yum.
Hope you and the family are loving NYC…

Oh my, drooling on the keyboard!
I've started a new blog … anyone out there with a Recipe Fail, that would like to participate, please check it out.
Big Blue House Girl On Thursday, May 28 at 10:30 am
Looks yummy!! YOu really need a Pampered Chef apple peeler/corer/slicer.
Pray for Annie…. http://www.fordsbigbluehouse.blogspot.com
Sarah (Coffee Beans and Curry Leaves) On Thursday, May 28 at 10:36 am
This tart sounds brilliantly quick & easy – and delicious! I second the commenter who suggested adding a cheesecake layer in between the puff pastry and the apple topping. Of course that's only if one's up for dirtying the extra dishes – I'm sure this is absolutely delicious as is!
Mamadallama On Thursday, May 28 at 10:37 am
I really really like how simple this dessert is. The look is European, or at least it has the look of lots of the pastries I saw when there, especially in the southwestern part of Germany. They had oodles of fabulous apple desserts and I just couldn't get enough of them!
Joanna Ryther On Thursday, May 28 at 10:40 am
I'm so glad you posted this! I bought a bag of apples at the grocery store and am running out of yummy new things to make! I've never used puff pastry before, so I'm excited!
Bobosaur Wrangler On Thursday, May 28 at 10:46 am
Ooh, AWESOME!! I love the idea of making pastries and tarts but its so much darn work… this is fantastic. I have bought puff pastry before and it just went to waste as I couldn't think of what to do with it. Can't wait to try this!
Stephanie On Thursday, May 28 at 10:46 am
Yum! And somehow it's so much better because it's easy. I'm filing this one away for the next time I need a dessert (like tomorrow)…
Erin On Thursday, May 28 at 10:53 am
I love it!
Chris Nixon On Thursday, May 28 at 10:57 am
I flipping (for want of a more sweary word) LOVE this blog. I am totally completely going to cook this over the weekend.
Christy On Thursday, May 28 at 10:59 am
this looks awesome! i Have to say that all your recipes are so great! I keep telling my husband that all this new cooking inspiration is coming from the pioneer woman! (he has no idea what I am talking about, gives me a strange looks and keeps on eatin'…)
Sarah S. On Thursday, May 28 at 11:02 am
Oh My Goodness!!!!!!! I can see peaches and blueberries too! This summer!!!!!!
I love simple recipes, Thanks Ree!
shelley On Thursday, May 28 at 11:08 am
That looks so wonderful! I like the idea above about using peaches – I might have to do that. If I'm making an apple dessert, it just has to be your apple dumplings (with the crescent rolls! and the mtn. dew!) Hope you're enjoying NYC, & have a bagel w/lox & cream cheese & tomatoes & red onion & capers for me please
LizKS On Thursday, May 28 at 11:10 am
Ree! WHERE'S THE BUTTER!? Got to have butter on baked apples! This looks so delicious and so easy I've got to try it…but with butter. =)
BeachMama On Thursday, May 28 at 11:14 am
Simple yet delicious. This will be going into my stores of recipes.
rebecca On Thursday, May 28 at 11:17 am
I can't believe you made a dessert with out butter! It does look yummy though.
Erin F. On Thursday, May 28 at 11:18 am
It looks like something I learned to make in Switzerland. They called them "windowpanes" (i'm sure it sounded prettier in German). We just cut smaller squares out, and then put jam in the middle of the squares instead of fresh fruit (though fresh fruit works equally well; made them with blueberries, then boysenberry jam). Baked them, and tada! Tasty stuff!
katerina On Thursday, May 28 at 11:20 am
You are the only person who could make frozen pastry pictures pretty. Nice work.
Patty Williams On Thursday, May 28 at 11:25 am
You had me at apple tart!! Then ICE CREAM….oh my!
Rhonda in Oklahoma On Thursday, May 28 at 11:28 am
I hope to try this as soon as possible! This looks delicious.
Lara On Thursday, May 28 at 11:39 am
Ree, try docking the puff pastry with a fork before you lay the apples on it- just poke the fork about 1/2″ apart wherever you're going to lay the apples. It won't puff as high as the outside and it'll help keep the juices in the center of the tart!
Julie in WA On Thursday, May 28 at 11:41 am
No butter????
Marie On Thursday, May 28 at 11:42 am
YUMMY !! Think I might take this to our Homecoming at church in a couple of weeks.
Susan On Thursday, May 28 at 11:46 am
This looks right up there with the apple dumplings for ease of preparation. I like the smaller ice cream scoop servings too. Sometimes less is more..er, in photos that is!
Thank you, Pioneer Pasty Chef!
Jenni-Lynn On Thursday, May 28 at 11:52 am
Loks delish!! Gonna make it tonight cause I found some puff pastry in my freezer just the other night and wondered why I bought it what to do with it. Hope it's not too old to puff. Gonna drizzle come caramel sauce over the top too….Yum!
Amiyrah On Thursday, May 28 at 11:53 am
This looks very similar to Ina Garten's french apple tart. She takes the skin off and just sprinkies the sugar over the apples after they are placed on the pastry.
I like that you leave the skin on.
Stephanie On Thursday, May 28 at 11:57 am
Wow! This looks great! I think I'll buy the ingredients and get my daughter to make this over the weekend – it would be perfect with a cup of coffee at breakfast.
Laura@OurHouseOfJoyfulNoise On Thursday, May 28 at 11:57 am
This one is calling my name,…first, middle, AND LAST!
I just may have to go through the effort of making it.
Unless I can get my husband or daughter to. Yeah….I'll try that first. Good plan….good plan.
kristen On Thursday, May 28 at 11:58 am
hooray! a dessert my mom with all of her plentiful allergies can eat! celebration!
Jillian On Thursday, May 28 at 11:59 am
I just love puff pastry. Looks great!
Angela On Thursday, May 28 at 12:04 pm
Looks good! For everyone shocked at the lack of butter: I don't know about the frozen stuff but every recipe I've ever seen for puff pastry has about equal parts flour and butter. So I guess with the frozen, you get to use butter (or something like it) without actually being confronted with it
Another Osage Cty Chick On Thursday, May 28 at 12:12 pm
Looks like another wonderful recipe from PW Cooks!! I will have to try it this weekend! Thanks again for keeping us fat and happy with wonderful food recipes!
Anna On Thursday, May 28 at 12:23 pm
Love the easy recipes! this is great! I use puff pastry for mini-strudels/turnovers. I fill puff pastry triangles with apples+sugar (prepared similarly to what you just did+cinnamon+ raisins+pinenuts.
My gusts look at me as if I were a chef…and I have a giggle for how easy it was.
Michelle On Thursday, May 28 at 12:24 pm
Puff pastry rules. I have about a dozen boxes in my deep freeze, waiting to fulfill their destiny.
Shawna On Thursday, May 28 at 12:29 pm
Looks good but isn't it a cardinal sin to not put cinnamon in all apple dishes?
bakingepiphanies On Thursday, May 28 at 12:30 pm
i've been wanting to try this since i saw barefoot contessa do something similar. this seriously looks delicious, and i like the idea of making three long thin tarts. very pretty!
Shdiaz On Thursday, May 28 at 12:46 pm
Wow, those apples are tiny! I dont think I've ever seen apples smaller than my fist before. (I'm from Washington)
Alexis On Thursday, May 28 at 12:52 pm
Yay! Now I know what I'm making for my dinner party next week. Thank you. Looks good!
Janet On Thursday, May 28 at 1:01 pm
Ooooh, Number 33, blackberries! I have some in the frig and puff pastry in the freezer too. I know what's for dessert tonite.
Blair On Thursday, May 28 at 1:08 pm
OMG! This looks delish! Easy and beautiful – my faves!
Shayronnie On Thursday, May 28 at 1:14 pm
Looks yummy and super-easy to make. I don't really cook but I think even I can make this one!
Dan O On Thursday, May 28 at 1:28 pm
Could you add chocolate to these? If so, any ideas?
Under the apples? On top after baking?
Wonders Never Cease On Thursday, May 28 at 1:37 pm
That looks divine!
You need to buy yourself one of those Pampered Chef apple machines–the kind that cores, peels, and slices apples as you turn the handle. My sis in law bought me one and you won't believe how popular it made me on the birthday party set! Kiddies who would never eat an apple themselves would BEG to get to try it out–and soon they'd be eating away. Seriously.
And no, I have no affiliation with Pampered Chef–I've only been to one party years and years ago. I think other companies make them–just google it.
Chloe On Thursday, May 28 at 1:39 pm
Wow that looks so good. Especially with the powdered sugar!
Susan in CA On Thursday, May 28 at 1:54 pm
Come on people! Puff Pastry is LOADED WITH BUTTER!
Ree, did you use an eggwash to get the lovely brown color?
Andrea On Thursday, May 28 at 2:03 pm
I'm going to whip this recipe out during the Fall, after I go apple picking with the kids. It looks like a fun, easy dessert for little hands to help with! I love how accomplished and proud of they are of themselves when they make something in Mama's kitchen
Misty On Thursday, May 28 at 2:03 pm
It looks absolutely delicious!!!! I will definitely try it as is, and I also want to try it with a slight variation – spread sweetened cream cheese on the pastry first, then carry on with the apples…
Jennifer On Thursday, May 28 at 2:10 pm
I HAVE to make this…and soon! My kids will LOVE IT!!!!! Thank you sooooooooo much!
cammi On Thursday, May 28 at 2:23 pm
those look fab! can't wait till i'm off the HCG diet and then i will be trying this
Renee On Thursday, May 28 at 2:26 pm
YUM!! I've done this with lemon pie filling.
Darlene On Thursday, May 28 at 2:33 pm
This is just about the best way to eat apples – with a crust, still warm with vanilla ice cream. yum!
Laura Koch On Thursday, May 28 at 2:42 pm
Oh, this may take the place of your apple dumplings with mountain dew at our house! And I'm with #119 – you need to get yourself a Pampered Chef apple peeler/corer/slicer. I'm always looking for an excuse to pull mine out of the drawer! Thanks PW.
Apryl On Thursday, May 28 at 2:46 pm
Are you going to do all apple items in honor of being in the big apple?
Heather On Thursday, May 28 at 3:03 pm
I've never used puffed pastry without seperating all the sheets and accidently tearing the heck out of them and putting butter between each layer.
Interesting… very interesting.
Preparedness Pro On Thursday, May 28 at 3:10 pm
This looks absolutely delectable! I'm amazed that you have still updated nearly everything on your site AND your in NYC living it up! You are a wonder woman.
Ubah On Thursday, May 28 at 3:14 pm
Oh Ree, that looks delicious!!
Lois On Thursday, May 28 at 4:03 pm
Looks really yummy. Did you whip that up in your hotel room
Rachel H On Thursday, May 28 at 4:03 pm
That's sooooo easy! Thanks! By the way, love the apple theme…. Big Apple trip – Apple Tart
Lois On Thursday, May 28 at 4:04 pm
Gretchen On Thursday, May 28 at 4:36 pm
Can you explain "cinnamon ice cream?" Is that something you have to make or can you doctor up vanilla ice cream or can you (gasp), actually buy it ?! I had it once in Germany and loved,loved loved it!
Bree On Thursday, May 28 at 4:41 pm
Could you please post the low calorie version now? Thank you.
Carol On Thursday, May 28 at 4:44 pm
mmmmm….gonna save this recipe for the fall after we go apple picking….it just looks so yummy!! thanks for sharing it.!
Quinne On Thursday, May 28 at 4:51 pm
Hi Ree Thanks for this one! My sweeties thank you, too… Love, Q
Mandi On Thursday, May 28 at 5:14 pm
You make my shift at work sooooooooooooooooooo long. *sigh*
Erica On Thursday, May 28 at 5:22 pm
I've always been afraid to buy and work with puff pastry, but no longer…I'll be making this for a few upcoming dinners and get togethers. Thanks so much.
Sallie A. On Thursday, May 28 at 5:24 pm
a recipe, without butter? at least i know the puff pastry has some already in it. that was a close call…
Carol Q On Thursday, May 28 at 5:29 pm
What did the puff pastry w/apples on a third of a puff pastry look like?
Not fair, there's no photo for the 'other' tart!!
TL On Thursday, May 28 at 5:32 pm
Hate, hate, hate to nitpick 'cause you are usually right on with your writing, but the term is "puff pastry" not "puffed pastry."
Bakingmonster On Thursday, May 28 at 5:40 pm
This looks soo good!
LIsa Wright On Thursday, May 28 at 6:25 pm
I've made apple tarts that way and they're delicious! I like anything made with puff pastry.
sharon On Thursday, May 28 at 6:29 pm
Yowzers. That is all I have to say. Oh, and I'll be making this sometime soon.
Monica On Thursday, May 28 at 6:43 pm
Oh, this was YUMMY! i used 2/3 cup of brown sugar & it was plenty sweet I used some store bought caramel dip, heated it up & drizzled over the top. I may just stick to the powdered sugar next time- simple, simple simple
Kathleen On Thursday, May 28 at 6:49 pm
Okay, now why didn't I see this recipe BEFORE I went to the store? LOL *note to self – always check PW before going to the store*
Puppydogs On Thursday, May 28 at 7:04 pm
I can see chopped pecans on top with some candied ginger….mmmmmm
Sues2u2 On Thursday, May 28 at 7:11 pm
That looks absolutely delicious! I can't wait to try it. Now to see if the pastry is available in town!!
Steph On Thursday, May 28 at 7:14 pm
Are you kidding me? I just gained 5 pounds. Just slap them right on to my hips….

Susan On Thursday, May 28 at 7:32 pm
Oh my goodness, I'm in love.
Over at "RaisinToast"
Fern On Thursday, May 28 at 7:33 pm
I made the tarts for supper right after reading your blog. They are delicious, but I added a little cinnamon so the aroma would drive the neighbors wild! My neighbors are close….too close. Just kidding.
JoyinArkansas On Thursday, May 28 at 7:40 pm
What? No butter?
Looks yummy!
Demi On Thursday, May 28 at 7:50 pm
delish! my boyfriend loves apple pastries, and is lactose intolerant, so i made them for him after a quick run to the grocery store. i used a mandolin though, so they broke after tossing with lemon and brown sugar. i sliced more apples, tossed with lemon juice only, covered the broken apple pieces on the pastry to bake, came out great!

Welcome To Manama
Welcome to InterContinental Regency Bahrain. The concierge team is at your service 24 hours a day and we look forward to helping you enjoy Bahrain and all it has to offer.
Welcome to InterContinental Regency Bahrain. If you are planning to re-visit this beautiful city, let us show you how we can make your stay a very special experience. Located in the city centre next to the famous Bab Al Bahrain or Bahrain's oldest market and in a walking distance to Bahrain Financial Harbor & World Trade Center, and most of the business towers in Manama and is less than 10 minutes away from the Seef area where some international companies are also located.
Start your morning in Bahrain with a city tour which will take you to Al Fateh Grand Mosque, the biggest mosque in Bahrain and a sight to behold. The next stop will be at the Bahrain National Museum where you can learn about the fascinating history of Bahrain, which goes back over 1,000 years of history. Afterwards, visit the house of Sheikh Isa located in the old city of Muharraq before on your way to Al Jasra handicraft centre where you can buy local crafts and souvenirs. End your morning with a drive out to a wonderful mystic place the Tree of Life, the oldest tree in Bahrain standing alone in the middle of desert with over 400 years of history.
In the afternoon, cool off with a traditional pearl-diving tour in Al Dar Islands. This lasts for about three hours and includes a free diving session into the deep blue waters. Then, if you're a fan of Formula 1, visit the Bahrain International Circuit to sample the thrill of the famous race track before taking a trip over the King Fahad Causeway. This bridge connects Bahrain and Saudi Arabia and is a modern wonder of technology.
To get the most out of a night in Bahrain, visit Adliya. This is Bahrain's happening area, teaming with nightlife. It can be a little crowded but this place is tremendous fun: cosmopolitan, outgoing and exciting. Pick one of the numerous restaurants or bars and enjoy great Bahraini or international cuisine while being captivated by a variety of entertainment and shows.
During the holy month of Ramadan, Muslim traditions must be observed by refraining from eating, drinking or smoking in public until the sun goes down. Liquor shops and bars are closed during the entire holy month.
Summer in Bahrain
From late May to early September, the highest temperature reaches up to 45 degrees Celsius. Sun is also very strong; therefore, wearing light material long sleeves, sunglasses, hats and sunblock creams are recommended.
Taking photos on government and military buildings is prohibited and permission should always be seeked when taking images of local people.
Alcoholic beverage is only allowed in designated places and drinking in public areas is strictly prohibited.
Bahrain is an archipelago of 33 islands, the largest being Bahrain Island, at 55 km (34 mi) long by 18 km (11 mi) wide. Saudi Arabia lies to the west and is connected to Bahrain by the King Fahad Causeway. Qatar is to the southeast across the Gulf of Bahrain. The planned Qatar-Bahrain Causeway will link Bahrain and Qatar and become the world's longest marine causeway.
Barbar Temple
Excavations begun in the 1950s and 1960s have revealed three stone-built temples dating from the second and third millennia BC. It is believed that they were built as a place of worship for the God of spring waters, Enki, and a sacred well discovered within the complex further strengthens this theory. Barbar Temple is also listed in UNESCO Heritage site.
Tree of Life
Tree of Life is a large single mesquite tree that has been sitting in the middle of the Bahrain desert for over 400 years.
Al Fateh Grand Mosque
The Al Fateh Grand Mosque is one of the largest mosques in the world, encompassing 6,500 square meters and having the capacity to accommodate over 7,000 worshippers at a time. Conservative attire is required upon your visit. Abaya (traditional dress for womens) will be provided for female and non-Muslim visitors.

Water started flowing in irrigation ditches and canals Friday, but farmers are being told not to start irrigating just yet. It will take at least another four weeks to do some spring cleanup and check the water flows, all in preparation for the extremely harsh season ahead.
Canals that were bone dry underwent the transformation Thursday night. Friday they were filled up with fresh water for the upcoming irrigation season. But the Middle Rio Grande Conservancy District is warning farmers to think twice about every drop of water that is used this year.
"The last time I think we've seen a year this bad was probably 1977," David Gensler said.
And before that, there has not been this great of a water shortage since the 1950's.
"None of us have had any recent experience getting through these kinds of low-water conditions, so I think it's going to be a very challenging situation," Gensler said.
Farmer Michael Lundmark is already seeing the effects. Lundmark showed KOB Eyewitness News 4 his winter wheat and explained, it should be five times the size, but with such little water it just cannot grow.
"Never in my life have I seen this condition," Lundmark said.
Worst case scenario this summer, the bread and butter of New Mexico agriculture, red and green chile, could suffer most. Not even the crop's own state law could help save it if the supply runs dry.
"We're going to continue to be able to deliver water throughout the summer but once we run out of our stored reservoir supplies the interval between irrigations will become longer," Gensler said.
How much rain falls in the early part of the summer will determine how quickly there could be noticeable problems.
Officials are also warning people, the water in the ditch banks and canals is not safe to swim or play in. Every year there are several emergency rescues.

Ron Adamkiewicz stands at the intersection of Roan and Mountcastle in protest of Obama Administration and IRS issues.
While waiting on the light to turn green at the intersection of North State of Franklin Road and West Market Street, Lucas Wooden rolled down his window to tell a man holding a sign during Friday's IRS protest rally that he was "doing a great job" raising awareness of issues affecting the whole nation.
Doug and Kay White, members of the local Tea Party group, organized the protest held at two local intersections where about 40 people total waved their signs and voiced their opinions regarding the current state of America.
Issues surrounding government agencies like the Internal Revenue Service, Environmental Protection Agency, National Security Agency and Homeland Security, as well as general opposition for decisions and actions made by President Barack Obama's administration were among the protestors' concerns.
Doug White said he hopes his voice combined with other like-minded locals in protest will save the country.
"We're trying to wake the people up to realize that we are slowly losing our freedom, our liberty and we are losing our financial health," White said. "Our country is going bankrupt."
White said more specifically he was standing in protest of what, according to national news reports, Congress has been attempting to look into, which is Tea Party groups being targeted by the IRS.
In May, the IRS apologized for what it acknowledged was "inappropriate" targeting of conservative political groups during the 2012 election to see if those groups were violating their tax-exempt status.
The IRS and Obama administration, White said, has been picking on groups of people with whom he and many other Americans identify.
"They have targeted conservative groups, patriotic groups and Christian groups," White said. "Anybody they find that opposes the Obama administration, they have intimidated and harassed them."
White said the local Tea Party group has not been impacted by the IRS probe, but awareness of what is happening to other Tea Party groups worries him.
"They didn't do anything to our Tea Party because we didn't apply for tax-exempt status, but the ones that applied for tax exemption ... everything was illegal that they asked for," White said. "It was illegal."
Although the Tea Party tax exemption topic was one of the main motivators for the protest, White said it was just one example of governmental unfairness and offers insight into what may come for many other groups, political or otherwise, in America.
"If they will harass us, then they will harass other groups with different views, too," White said.
Seeing other people involved in the protest by making a sign or honking their horns, Ron Adamkiewicz said, gives him hope for a better America.
"I get inspiration from these people honking their horns," Adamkiewicz said. "We need to get more people involved in the Tea Party groups. We have been called ... wackobirds, we've been demonized and called racists. We are not any of that. All we want to do is get this country back on the right track."
With the IRS probe and many more governmental issues in mind, Adamkiewicz waved at motorists and held an American flag at the Mall at Johnson City intersection.
"The IRS is targeting certain groups and letting certain groups go," Adamkiewicz said. "They are not being fair."
Obamacare was also a topic of concern for Adamkiewicz. He said he opposes the Supreme Court's ruling.
"They said it was a tax," Adamkiewicz said. "It still goes against the Constitution. You can't have a federal government say that you have got to pay for something.
"People are going to be paying more for health coverage and getting less coverage," he said.
With recent exposure of NSA issues, Adamkiewicz said this summer he will be living in fear of losing his rights and privacy while federal government officials are on their costly vacations.
"Our country is burning," Adamkiewicz said. "We've got leadership and an administration that doesn't care. This whole administration is a charade.
"If the American people don't wake up, stand up and pay attention, I'm afraid our country is lost," Adamkiewicz said.
Overall, Adamkiewicz said he wants to see people come together with a passion for improving the country.
"People have died for this flag and now people are stepping on it," Adamkiewicz said.
At the corner of West Market and State of Franklin, sisters Kim Cornette and Terri Duncan said they have the past and the future in mind while they protest.
"We're here to protect the America we grew up in," Cornette said.
"We have kids and grandkids at stake," Duncan said.
Robert House was also concerned about young people and their involvement in national debate.
House said he hopes the protest inspires youth in the community to embrace constitutional rights and become more active in creating the country in which they deserve to live.
"They are the ones that are going to have to live with it," House said. "They need to be more involved."
White said more people in general need to be concerned about changes in the country because it affects everyone living here.
"If people don't wake up in this country, our children and grandchildren won't have a future," he said.
The local Tea Party group will take their protest to Washington on Wednesday with the Tea Party Patriots as part of their Audit the IRS Rally.

I think its really funny what trent dilfer says.
"I like Chad Henne," Dilfer said. "I think he's good player. I think he's limited athletically. I don't think he's the same type of athlete as Mark Sanchez. He's not the same type of thrower. He's kind of a fastball thrower. He doesn't have the repertoire as a football player that Mark Sanchez has. That doesn't mean he can't develop it, but that's going to take longer.
"Sanchez is the unique talent of the last five or six draft classes because he has that Alpha male personality. He has that 'it factor.' Then physically he has the sudden feet, plenty of arm, is highly accurate, was mature beyond his years as a college player. He has a distinct advantage because of his makeup, the total package, and they're supporting him in such a great way.

The Hilbert College men's soccer team dropped a 3-0 decision to visiting Penn State Altoona, Saturday afternoon. With the loss, the Hawks fall to 2-7 on the season and 0-2 in conference play.
The Hawks trailed at half 2-0, and gave up the insurance goal in the 73rd minute.
"Aside from some marking errors, I thought this game was closer than the 3-0 scored indicated," said head coach Tim Kronenwetter. "I was pleased with the fact that we made them make 5 saves."
Sophomore keeper Eric Davies (Tonawanda, NY/Tonawanda) turned in another strong effort recording 9 saves on the afternoon.
The Hawks return to action Oct. 4 at the University of Pittsburgh at Greensburg.

I promised to write about the scientists this week; my intention had been to try explaining the science that goes on on-board, however, as was pointed out to me, if people want to know about BAS science, they go to the research pages - people reading the web-diaries apparently want to know about everyday life. So that's all you're going to get: the everyday (but fascinating!) life of a ship's scientist.
This rare breed of scientist chooses to begin each day at 4am (I sincerely hope, dear reader, that you appreciate my getting out of bed at an un-Godly hour one day this week all in the name of accurate journalism!). Dressed in a boiler suit (pajamas underneath as I had every intention of returning to bed as soon as my work was done) and fur-lined hard hat (for which I have been teased relentlessly - the fur is a little warm for the tropics, but I'll be laughing when we get to the Antarctic!), I went down to the deck to see what these scientists really get up to. Expecting the deck to be teeming with scientific activity, I was a little disappointed to see only one or two scientists about. I wondered had they been exaggerating (as, I believe, scientists have a tendency to do) their start time? I am assured that they were all in one of the labs preparing for the retrieval of samples. On the deck, the ship's crew were busy launching various collecting/measuring instruments into the sea.
It is only once the apparatus returns from the deep sea onto the deck, (circa 5am!) that the swarms of scientists appear, armed with little bottles to take their share of the collected sea water.
The scientists then disappear back into their hiding places to play with the water samples.
At this point it was time for me to return to bed, after all, I have a duty to remain on top-form, what good is a tired doctor? I do sympathize with the scientists and crew who are getting up so early each day, and I implore them not to have any accidents or illnesses until at least 9am!
Now I should hate to mis-represent these world-class scientists and lead you to believe that they are very serious, square types. Indeed they are hard-working, and are fascinated by data which most of us don't appreciate nor understand, but they do like to have a laugh and be silly at times too: Take for example, the deep (5150m sampling station). On the day before this extra-long stop (positioned right in the centre of the North Atlantic), there was a palpable buzz amongst the scientists. As the day wore on I realized that the reason for all the excitement was more to do with the traditional production of decorated miniature polystyrene cups than it was to do with sample collection. By attaching (in a sock) a polystyrene cup to the equipment to be submerged, the cup becomes subjected to such high pressure at these great depths, that it returns to the surface having been miniaturized. Whilst, of course, I would ordinarily not partake in such silliness, I thought it necessary (for your sake, reader) to illustrate the technique, hence the web-diary cup:
At the end of a long and busy day, the scientists unwind (the rest of us do our best to assist this process) with a barbecue and discussion about the day's findings.
Finally (just to make you smile), I'll tell you about couple of my antics this week: Mike, the lovely Comms Officer, asked me to help by keeping an eye on him and communicating via walkie talkie as he climbed the mast to repair a light. I keep making a hash of radio communications by forgetting to press the button before I speak, turning off the volume etc. Whilst Mike was dangling precariously from the top of the mast, he had evidently tried to say something to me, but I didn't receive (I suspect that on this occasion, it was he who was at fault for the failure in message transmission, but I maturely accept the blame). So when he sent the next message, by now sounding a little hot under the collar, I was baffled by the message. I was supposed to go and flick a switch but, not having received the message telling me to do so, was instead just sitting in the window staring at him through binoculars. Consequently Mike thought I was just messing about, leaving him stranded at the top of the mast! It all got quite confusing.. then amusing. By the time he got down, he was certainly in need of something to calm his nerves - as was I!
Oh - and just before that event, I had again caused much hilarity: The crew occasionally use arm signals to inform officers on the bridge of things happening outside. I had not realized this, so when one of the crew started gesticulating to one of the officers standing behind me on the bridge, I assumed he was just being silly, so did the same and then waved back. All rather embarrassing really - and another one, no doubt, to be added to the ever-growing list of charges against me for the "crossing the line ceremony" which is due to take place this coming week - I'll let you know how that goes if I survive to write next week's web-diary.

Six Steps to Successfully Manage Software Internationalization
Global opportunities are going to force you to evaluate how to adapt your code and ongoing development to support localization. Sometimes it starts with a potential new partnership, sale or strategic initiative. Yet it's not clear what will be involved for development.

Five-vehicle crash closes I-64 east
HUNTINGTON — Five people were taken to the hospital Thursday after a five-vehicle crash on eastbound Interstate 64.
Cabell County 911 received word of the crash at 3:09 p.m. Thursday. It was located in the eastbound lanes of I-64, just past the 17th Street exit.
Cabell County Sheriff Tom McComas said those hurt received non-life threatening injuries.
Eastbound lanes of I-64 were closed until about 5 p.m. as deputies investigated the accident, McComas said.
Deputies on the scene said the accident remains under investigation, although it appears that a vehicle was merging from an eastbound on ramp when a sudden change in speed by vehicles already on the interstate led to that vehicle being rear-ended by another, setting of a chain reaction of crashes.
The Cabell County Sheriff's Office took the investigation when one of its units rolled on to the scene.

Heads turned to watch as the expressionless, empty-handed executioner wearing a conservative, black, pinstriped suit walked unimpeded through an overflow crowd inside a ninth-floor ballroom at Knott's Berry Farm Resort on the morning of March 6. The wily assassin, Michael J. Schroeder of Corona del Mar, knew what he was doing. Without spilling a drop of blood, he'd slain others in the past two decades—Linda Ackerman, Gil Ferguson, Mike Capizzi, Doris Allen, Mike Clesceri and Wally Wade, to name a few—and he'd always gotten off scot-free.
On this cool, rainy morning in Buena Park, Schroeder found his next victim: Meg Whitman, the wealthy businesswoman who'd come to the California Republican Assembly (CRA) convention to get an endorsement for her gubernatorial campaign. A Whitman victory was unacceptable to the Santa Ana insurance-company king, former chairman of the state GOP, red-wine connoisseur and powerful political nemesis to anyone who doesn't share his brand of conservative ideology. He sees her as a RINO, or Republican In Name Only. In right-wing parlance, it's a slightly less derogatory term than "commie."
When Schroeder reached the podium to address the CRA convention, he grabbed the lectern with both hands, leaned into the microphone and—with a deep, steady voice—opened fire. His mission? To kill Whitman's chances of grabbing the group's endorsement. He reminded the audience that they had not backed Arnold Schwarzenegger, whose continual flip-flops, shameless self-promotion, lack of social conservatism and spousal choice all nauseate the CRA faithful.
"Boy, did we get that one right," he said. "I've never voted for him or endorsed him."
Schroeder, a onetime CRA president, added, "But the same list of people who told you it was fine to support Schwarzenegger are the same people who are now telling you it's okay to back Meg Whitman."
The line—a thinly veiled swipe at the likes of Congressman Ed Royce—won applause. Schroeder—who was Mike Carona's unofficial consiglieri before the FBI and IRS arrested the then-sheriff for corruption—outlined what he sees as Whitman's sins: She is against an old state proposition (187) that denies public benefits to noncitizens, supports anti-gun positions and in the recent past contributed campaign funds to Barbara Boxer.
This patriotic crowd—dominated by folks who could have fought in or tended Victory Gardens during World War II—booed loudly at the mention of the Democratic U.S. senator's name. When the crowd hushed, Schroeder went for the kill: "Meg Whitman is going to be Arnold Schwarzenegger with a skirt!"
The room erupted. People jumped out of their seats with hearty cheers. Two gray-haired men in their 60s gave each other high-fives.
Calmly firing the coup de grace, Schroeder then sparked a new round of applause. "She has the nerve to show up here with her paid entourage," he said. "I've never seen so many Democrats at a CRA convention!"
Somewhere, Ronald Reagan was smiling.
Schroeder walked back to his seat; folks came over to shake his hand or pat him on the shoulder.
Whitman continued to happily schmooze with supporters such as congressmen Royce and Darrell Issa. Her message: Nobody is going to be tougher on Democrats in the legislature to straighten out California's messes. "I am the only candidate who will stand up to the unions and reduce the state's work force by 40,000," Whitman had declared before Schroeder's knife-work. "I won't take no for an answer when Sacramento forces push back."
The crowd liked what it heard, so how would they react after hearing from Schroeder? After all, his choice, Steve Poizner, isn't the ideal CRA candidate, either. Indeed, best I can tell, the ideal candidate for this group would be a mix of the Reverend Lou Sheldon, Dana Rohrabacher and, to add much-needed masculinity, Clint Eastwood's gun-toting Dirty Harry character.
Whitman, no fool, made sure delegates knew Poizner had been a big Al Gore supporter; had given money to one of Boxer's prior campaigns; and, something usually unforgivable for this crowd, asked for and received the support of Planned Parenthood in a past election.
To reduce concerns over Poizner's baggage, Schroeder worked behind the scenes, shuffling delegates to private Q&A meetings with his candidate. Currently the state's insurance commissioner, Poizner acknowledged he's new to—but now basically committed to—the group's traditional values. Many CRA members firmly believe that progressives are anti-God, anti-freedom, pro-criminal and secretly adhere to Marxism. One member, the Reverend Wiley Drake, stood in the back of the ballroom wearing a red T-shirt that read, "We'll Remember in November." He has co-written a country song to match the shirt. President Barack Obama doesn't come off too well in the tune.

I started using this bundle two weeks ago with the Healthy Gum Drops, Neem Enamelizer, Frankincense TrueTooth toothpaste and the Smart Floss. I'm pleasantly surprised and have really noticed a difference in this short time. I do a himalayan salt brine swish, followed by a drop of healthy gum drops and neem enamelizer on a dry brush, swish with water, then a Sonicare with the frankincense toothpaste, and floss with smart floss/healthy gum drops. While the taste of the enamelizer and toothpaste is not all that great, I just make sure to swish immediately so I don't taste it. Using this method leaves me with fresh breath all day (not minty, but definitely not mid-morning dragon breath like I got with regular toothpaste). The enamelizer leaves my teeth very smooth and silky, I love it! My gums bled the first two days using the floss and healthy gum drops, but no more bleeding after that so I think it's been great for my gums! Also, I've had sensitive teeth for years and had to use Sensodyne every day, so I was worried that switching to this method would make my teeth sensitive, but nothing so far!! I'm really happy with my results and look forward to natural oral care for years to come!
Neem Enamelizer is specially formulated to replace regular toothpaste. Keeping saliva alkaline is essential for healthy mineralized enamel. Neem Enamelizer will leave your teeth feeling smooth and further allow minerals, enzymes and nutrients in your saliva to re-mineralize the enamel. This alkalinizing liquid-polish is made organic and wild crafted ingredients of neem, cinnamon, coconut oil, olive oil, jojoba, soapwort and spring water. Only one tiny drop is needed on a dry tooth brush. Our Neem Enamelizer is different in function and results from our Yogi Tooth Serum and Healthy Gum Drops products. The Neem Enamelizer replaces toothpaste and is for the brushing stage only. Whereas the Tooth Serums are for many phases of oral care, including: brushing, flossing, massaging gums, post-dentistry.
Healthy teeth exist in a sea of saliva, a sea of saline alkalinity. Imagine that your mouth is a coral reef in which your teeth are the coral, surrounded by an ocean of alkalinity. When your teeth are lubricated in healthy saliva, they are at their absolute healthiest. In this state, you can heal a lot of decay and prevent new decay from occurring.
Your saliva is extremely important to the functioning of your mouth. It contains many chemicals and enzymes that exist specifically to take care of the teeth, and it is designed to bathe the teeth all day long in a solution that has a pH of approximately 7. This is exactly what your teeth and gums need. Saliva can re-mineralize or de-mineralize teeth. It controls bacterial flora in the mouth, prepares food for digestion, and produces certain vital hormones. If saliva is too acid, it dissolves the enamel on your teeth and creates an environment that houses bacteria. The longer the mouth remains acidic the more damage is done to the enamel. Weak, porous enamel and acidic gum tissue create sensitive teeth. Furthermore, saliva that has too much alkalinity excretes excess calcium and can create calculus build up on the teeth.
Foaming chemicals in your mouth while you are brushing your teeth do not create optimal oral ecology. Regular toothpaste gives an illusion of freshness, yet it does not really remove plaque, it is the brushing that does that. It is best to be minimalist about it and use a dry toothbrush with a dab of salt, baking soda, or a Tooth Serum.
The chemicals used in commercial toothpaste, including many of the brands sold in health food stores, include chemicals that you do not want in your mouth, such as glycerin, which coats the teeth and blocks the saliva from doing its primary job of re-mineralizing the enamel. You will also find calcium carbonate, which is essentially chalk that is not at all good for teeth. Also, what paste would be complete without the detergent and surfactant sodium lauryl sulfate, which makes toothpaste foamy? This known carcinogen breaks down your skin's natural barrier, easily penetrates skin, causing bleeding gums, and allows other chemicals to penetrate by increasing skin permeability approximately 100-fold. Additionally, when combined with other chemicals, it transforms into carcinogenic nitrates and can reside in the body for five days.
Some toothpastes contain propylene glycol, also known as anti-freeze, which is only handled with gloves in a lab. Then there's the FD&C color pigments (including coal tar derivatives that contain heavy metals and accumulate in the body), formaldehyde, Triclosan (a registered pesticide and bio-persistent chemical that destroys fragile aquatic ecosystems), artificial sweeteners, and synthetic isopropyl alcohol. You may also be surprised to learn that ethanol is the primary ingredient in most mouthwashes, even though it is known to cause approximately 36,000 cases of oral disease a year! How is it possible that carcinogens could help keep your mouth healthy? Yet when people find that they have breath or gum problems, one of the first things they do is go out and get a new brand of toothpaste and a big bottle of ethanol-based mouthwash.
Healthy Gum Drops- help you to have the healthiest mouth ever. Happy, healthy teeth and gums allow the full enjoyment of life's sensuality. Your mouth is a reflection of your overall health. At last, a truly effective oral ecology product to reach every tiny crevice in your mouth.

Essential oils are extremely potent, often hundreds of times stronger than the herbal extraction of the same plant. Each oil has hundreds of botanical chemical components that work synergistically. Genuine distillations of plants, flowers, seeds, roots, and trees have been used medicinally for centuries. Each one of the botanical species in these formulas is carefully selected by Nadine Artemis for their individual and synergistic effects that improve and maintain gum and oral health. The combination of antiseptic, astringent, circulatory and analgesic botanicals create optimal molecular activity.
Cinnamon, Cinnamomum ceylanicum. Our true cinnamon bark essential oil from Madagascar is antiseptic and antibacterial. It stimulates blood circulation to the gums and promotes their health and regeneration. Cinnamon is high in the compounds eugenol and cineol, both of which have potent anesthetic and antiseptic properties that increase the production of white blood cells. According to the work of Drs Franchomme and Pènoel, cinnamon bark oil is effective against 98% of all pathogenic bacteria.[1]
Clove Bud, Eugenia carophyllata, is an analgesic essential oil from the flowering buds of the clove tree with an extremely high ORAC. Clove has relieved toothaches and freshened breath since ancient times. A potent antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal, clove boosts the immune system and stimulates blood flow with its botanical constituents of eugenol, esters, and sesquiterpenes, all of which combine to create an essence with an impressive action against pathogens and microbes. "It is antiparasitic and helps gum infections, toothaches and tonsillitis."[2]
Oregano, Origanum vulgare, wild oregano oil from the mountains of the Mediterranean, has a bounty of botanical benefits with a broad spectrum of antibacterial, antifungal, anti-parasitic, anti-microbial, anti-viral, and anti-inflammatory action. Wild oregano contains two phenol compounds (in the following concentrations) that contribute to its medicinal applications: carvacrol at over 65% and thymol at 3.4%. These phenols possess potent antiseptic, analgesic, and antibacterial properties. Dr. Gerald Smith, DDS, explains, "Basically, oregano works like an antibiotic," boosting the immune system. Many studies show that oregano has a broad range of antimicrobial activities and works against fungus, virus, and bacteria, including E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruglinosa. Wild oil of oregano in oral applications can also improve dental hygiene as it destroys plaque-causing bacteria and reduces risks of gum disease.
Peppermint, Mentha piperita, helps with digestion and has an analgesic and cooling anti-inflammatory effect. Ingesting peppermint oil reduces levels of oxidized fats in body tissue and reverses declines in glutathione that were caused by radiation exposure[3]. Our peppermint is a genuine distillation of the fresh leaves and comes from a fourth generation family of distillers in France. It is important to understand that the peppermint flavouring in commercial toothpaste is artificial menthol and offers no benefit in preventing gingivitis. Real peppermint is a potent anti-oxidant and inhibits the bacterium that causes tooth decay.
Rose Otto, Rosa damascena, is an elegant and precious essence. It takes sixty roses to make one drop of Rose Otto essential oil! One of the most medicinally valued extracts, it adds resiliency and elasticity to the gum tissue. It is an effective analgesic and is vulnerary, meaning that it speeds up the healing of tissues with its potent antiviral and antiseptic properties. It is great for cold sores and cankers. Rose Otto also has the ability to regenerate connective tissues and tonify the gums.
Seabuckthorn Berry, Hippophae rhamnoides, is an incredibly rich and vital oil; extracted from a berry, it is perfectly balanced in omega 3, 6, 7, and 9 oils. Our seabuckthorn berry is a special super critical extract that is able to capture over 190 bioactive substances from the edible berry. The oil is also potent in antioxidants, anti-inflammatory beta carotene, carotenoids, and phytosterols that reduces redness and helps heal mucous membranes. I have been using seabuckthorn in many of my formulas since 1994 and have found the oil regenerates cells, protects against cell water loss, and is rich in vitamins C, E, and provitamins A and B's. Seabuckthorn Berry is rich in lipids, beneficial fatty acids, and rare palmitoleic acids. All of these extraordinary plant properties contribute to regenerate and revitalize connective and gingival tissue.
Tea Tree Oil,Malaleuca alternifolia, from the paper bark tea tree, has been used for thousands of years as a medicinal plant by the Australian Aborigines. Tea tree oil has anti-viral, anti-fungal, and anti-bacterial properties, and is "A therapeutic agent in chronic gingivitis and periodontitis, conditions that have both bacterial and inflammatory components."[4] Tea tree is very high in natural anti-inflammatory agents and contains the plant-chemicals cineol and propanol, both kinds of natural chemicals that can decrease gingivitis and reduce plaque. Tea tree also helps stop the approach of bacteria and is very astringent and antiseptic. In a scientific dental study,[5] a genuine distillation of tea tree oil (2.5%) proved effective in the treatment of chronic of gingivitis and inflammation. High in natural anti-inflammatory, antibacterial constituents of 1.8 –cineol, terpinen-4-ol, tea tree essential oil decreased the level of gingival teeth and reduced plaque scores in the study. Furthermore, the study showed that a total of 162 oral bacteria isolates (including streptococcus) were inhibited and rapidly destroyed by tea tree oil concentrations of less than 2%. The study concluded, "The components of Tea Tree Oil are known to have lipophilic properties which facilitate its diffusion through the epithelium. If Tea Tree Oil is readily absorbed after topical application into the gingival tissues and has anti-inflammatory properties once it has entered the connective tissues, it would be a unique non-toxic agent."[6] The Healthy Gum Drops formula contains more than 2% of this astringent and antiseptic essence.
Thyme Linalool, Thymus officinalis linalool, is a rare variety of the thyme species. It is both antiseptic and gentle. Thyme Linalool balances oral salivary secretions, stimulates the immune system, and acts as a decongestant. Overall, it is a tonifying and effective immuno-stimulant with anti-bacterial agents.
Essential oils in their unique nature are all antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral to varying degrees. In the book Beyond Antibiotics, Michael Schmidt devotes an entire chapter to the antimicrobial efficacy of essential oils, and states, "One of the advantages essential oils have over antibiotics is that bacteria do not develop resistance to essential oils. Many essential oils exert their antibacterial effect by interfering with the bacteria's ability to breathe. On the other hand, antibiotics interfere with the life cycle, or metabolism of, bacteria, but since bacteria are very crafty creatures, they change their chemistry and genes, which makes the antibiotic less effective the next time it is used. As a result, new generations of antibiotics will need to be developed to stay ahead of these organisms. Additionally says Schmidt, "another advantage to essential oils is that some actually stimulate immune function."
The botanical serums created for the Successful Self-Dentistry protocol are Healthy Gum Drops and Yogi Tooth Serum. Many people have asked us, "What is the difference between the two and which should I use?" The answer is that they have the same effect and the same excellent results, yet they contain different synergies of botanicals. All the ingredients are active and all the ingredients are antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral, meaning they can remove unwanted oral bacteria, revivify gum tissue, and enhance the immune system.
Yogi Tooth Serum and Healthy Gum Drops achieve the same results with different botanical selections. They maximize the health of one's oral ecology by both rejuvenating the gum tissue and increasing blood circulation to the gums and blood vessels of the mouth. The Healthy Gum Drops is fresh and minty tasting. The powerful bitters of neem in Yogi Tooth Serum take some people a little getting used to (although the cinnamon and cardamom in the product do help make the neem palatable). That being said, there is no need to get both, although some choose both for variety and alternate between the two. Both serums are great for flossing, brushing, and for keeping gums healthy, which is a major key to oral health. Both formulas are also effective on a deeper level and, while they work wonders at cleaning the teeth and nourishing the gum tissue, they are also beneficial to digestion and the stomach. So, even if you are only focusing on the teeth and gums, the botanicals in these serums are part of an integrated, harmonious system that can also benefit your whole body.
People sometimes ask if it is okay if they happen to swallow any of the oral care serums. The short answer is yes, in the "drop" quantities in which they are used. Essential oils are potent and it is often advised they not be taken internally in any quantity. This is true if the oils are not a genuine authentic distillation. However, when pure distillations of essential oils are taken in small quantities (i.e. by the drop), most are fine (and often beneficial) for internal use. In fact, many essential oils are used by the food and flavor industries. Orange juice is often flavoured with essential oil from oranges, Earl Grey Tea is flavoured with essential oil distilled from bergamot, and many liqueurs, confectionaries, chocolates, and flavour extracts use various essential oils. Essential oils are lipid soluble and, because they have a small molecular size, are able to penetrate the dermal layer of the skin, positively affecting the body through the lymphatic vessels, capillaries, cells, and nerve endings located there.
What Goes on the Skin Goes In
Aside from being cautious about what and how much is ingested by swallowing, it is significant to know that everything that is applied to the body, including essential oils, or the manufactured chemicals of perfumes, toothpaste, and synthetic lotions, are also absorbed into the bloodstream, cells, and organs whenever they are applied to the skin, and often to a higher degree than by eating and digesting something. This rate of absorption is even higher inside the mouth and its moist tissues where the skin wall, or epithelium, is only one cell thick. This is especially true if one has bleeding gums where anything in the mouth will have direct access to the bloodstream. We would not want to put anything in, on, or around the body that could not be swallowed. With ingredients, discernment is important.
How these products are different than regular toothpaste and actually nourish the oral ecology:
Mouth Math: acid + bacteria = inflammation = plaque = tartar = bleeding = sensitivity = decay = receding gums = exposed dentin = decay = lower immunity for overall health. The middle of the tooth is a pulp cavity and it contains nerve endings and blood vessels. Teeth are "alive" similar to the crystalline calcium make up of coral reefs. The mouth's salvia acts like an oceanic sea of alkalinity. Acidity strips the teeth of enamel making the teeth more vulnerable to bacteria. Unhealthy bacteria are the cause gingivitis, inflammation, periodontitis and decay. Under the gum line is cementum. Cementum keeps the tooth attached to gums and jaw bone held with collagen fibers. These deeply penetrating formulas containing amazing lipophilic properties that facilitate diffusion through the epithelium nourish the cells by promoting circulation to the gum tissue, dentin and blood vessels within our teeth. "Minty fresh" is a marketing promise we all know. Common toothpaste feels refreshing because it contains synthetic mint (menthol) or other flavor by-products such as cinnamon (cinnamaldehyde). These are not the real plant essences; they are synthetic derivatives. Foaming chemicals in your mouth while you are brushing your teeth do not create optimal oral ecology. Regular toothpaste gives an illusion of freshness, yet it does not really remove plaque, it is the brushing that does that. It is best to be minimalist about it and use a dry toothbrush with a dab of salt, baking soda, or a Tooth Serum.
Some toothpastes contain propylene glycol, also known as anti-freeze, which is not to be handled without gloves in a lab. Then there's the FD&C color pigments (including coal tar derivatives that contain heavy metals and accumulate in the body), formaldehyde, Triclosan (a registered pesticide and bio-persistent chemical that destroys fragile aquatic ecosystems), artificial sweeteners, and synthetic isopropyl alcohol. You may also be surprised to learn that ethanol is the primary ingredient in most mouthwashes, even though it is known to cause approximately 36,000 cases of oral disease a year! How is it possible that carcinogens could help keep your mouth healthy? Yet when people find that they have breath or gum problems, one of the first things they do is go out and get a new brand of toothpaste and a big bottle of ethanol-based mouthwash.
Healthy gums provide a natural barrier against the 400-plus microorganisms entering the circulatory system. The epithelium (the very thin skin inside your mouth) is only one cell thick and is designed to keep toxins, bacteria, and infection from entering the body. The soft oral tissues are great at absorbing whatever comes into contact them, with approximately 90% absorption efficiency, the tiniest break or cut in the epithelium (bleeding gums) allows toxins and bacteria to enter the bloodstream quite quickly.
Many Uses:
*These concentrates (water and alcohol free) can be added to salt-water for an excellent mouthwash.
*One drop added to a dry tooth brush (good-bye toothpaste)
*One drop added to a dry toothbrush and then dipped in (aluminum-free) baking soda, or salt.
*Massaged into gums, especially areas where the pockets are low and the dentin is exposed.
*One drop to proxa-brushes, sulca-brushes and rubber-tip stimulators
*One drop on tongue-scrappers
*One drop on tongue through the day for fresh breath
*One drop gargled in water for sore throats
*One drop on cankers sores; herpes lesions
*Apply one drop several times a day to any oral wound, laceration, incision to ease pain, *reduce inflammation, keep the incision clean and generate new cells.
*One drop to your string of floss, getting the Gum drops between each and every single tooth is very effective.
Side Benefits:
*Boosts immune systems and sinuses
*Soothes sore throats
*Keeps toothbrush clean

TruthTooth Powder Polish
Brighten and exfoliate for your healthiest smile ever! Our all-natural Tooth Truth Polish reveals the true beauty of healthy, balanced gums and teeth.
Baking Soda, Sodium bicarbonate, commonly known as baking soda, or bicarbonate of soda, is a naturally occurring substance in the human body and found dissolved in numerous mineral springs. Among other metabolic functions, bicarbonate in saliva buffers and neutralizes plaque acids. In addition to being an effective cleaning polish, baking soda is gentle. It has significantly lower abrasiveness than the cleaning agents of chalk and silica that are used in commercial toothpastes, and the baking soda's natural alkalinity neutralizes bacterial acidity.
Baking soda has been used as a tooth paste for centuries and is often combined with sea salt. Recommended by Dr. Hulda Clark, dentist Robert Nara, and Edgar Cayce as an effective tooth polish. Dr. Paul H. Keyes D.D.S., clinical investigator at the National Institute of Dental Research, advised regular brushing with salt and/or baking soda, as it prevents all destructive periodontal (gum) disease. Dr. Keyes states "Over the years when I was lecturing, I asked thousands of dentists and hygienists to raise their hands if they had ever seen destructive periodontal disease in person[s] who had regularly brushed with salt and/or [baking] soda. I have never seen a hand! And although I have not seen many such cases, the periodontal health in these patients has always been excellent".
Ozonated Healthy Gum*Gel
Our new oral care creation brings a fresh potency and depth to delivering tissue rejuvenating and microbe managing to your oral ecology.
Healthy Gum Gel delivers ozone, made of three atoms of oxygen (O3) to the gums. Nascent oxygen and essential oils are naturally antifungal, anti-bacterial, & anti-viral. Ozonated organic: seabuckthorn, jojoba, clove, tea tree, peppermint, rose otto, oregano, cinnamon, and thyme linalool. Use as toothpaste, on floss & massage into gums.
Ozone is made of three atoms of oxygen (O3) and has many applications in oral care, as nascent oxygen is naturally antifungal, anti-bacterial, and anti-viral. It was the brilliant visionary, Nikola Tesla, an electrical genius with over 300 patents for a wireless light bulb, wireless communication, ionized gases, cold plasma, and ozone generation for oxygen therapy that invented ozone therapy. In 1896, Tesla was issued a patent for an ozone generator. He formed the Tesla Ozone Companyand went into production of these generators. He produced a powerful gel made by bubbling ozone through olive oil until it solidified for use by naturopaths and doctors.
Ozone for Oral Care
Today, biological dental practices use ozone in the form of ozone gas and ozone infused water. Ozonatedgas has many dental uses; among these is the practice of injecting it around the root of a root canalled tooth. Cavities exposed to ozone gas will subsequently harden. In the case of a nerve exposure, ozone water followed by ozone gas will often prevent the nerve from dying. Irrigation of a surgical site with ozone water will speed healing and help remineralize the bone. The gas injected into cavitations sites is part of a protocol to clear up the cavitation. Injection of ozone into the TMJ joint has been found to be anti-inflammatory. Ozonated water is used for ingesting, gargling, and irrigating gum pockets. At home, Ozonated Tooth Serums deliver the combined benefits of ozone with potent botanicals and theseozonated gels may be applied to gums, sensitive teeth, abscesses, gum pockets, sulca, mouth lesions, and cold sores.
Successful Self-Dentistry in 8 Steps
Take a few moments to do these steps morning and night and wake up ready to kiss the day!
Welcome to the Successful Self-Dentistry steps with our new Ozone products. We are happy to offer more options to create the healthiest mouth ever! Each of these products is unique and offers innovative care when used altogether. If you are starting out with just one product, then the potent and versatile Yogi Tooth Serum or Healthy Gum Drops are still the classic choice.
Our new Ozonated oral care products are a great addition to your protocol and are integrated in the steps below. Ozone is especially beneficial for lifting your oral ecology to a new balance and to add variety to your daily care. The Ozonated Healthy Gum Gel can be applied to the gums and left on as your last step in this effective ritual.
Step One: The Salt Rinse
Make a salt water solution to keep in your bathroom (16oz of spring water to 1oz of salt in a mason jar). Add a drop of Yogi Tooth Serum or Healthy Gum Drops. Start with a salt water rinse before brushing. Use a little shot glass, pour in a bit of brine, swish and spit.
Step Two: Scraping the Tongue
Holding ends of tongue scraper, gently scrape the tongue from back to front 2-3 times. Rinse the scraper off each time.
Step Three: Brushing the Gums
Use a dry (ionic) toothbrush; add one drop of Yogi Tooth Serum, or Healthy Gum Drops, or Ozonated Healthy Gum Gel to one tiny drop of Neem Enamelizer on the brush. Brush gum down towards teeth for two minutes. Use special care over the gum line.
Step Four: Polishing the Teeth
Polish with a dry round-headed electric toothbrush. Use a tiny, half of a pea sized amount of Ozonated Clay Tooth-Truth Paste or Frankincense*Fresh Truth ToothPaste (you may add a drop of serum or Neem Enamelizer to this). Simple baking soda also works for this polishing step.
Step Five: Checking the Gum Lines
Check gum lines for any remaining plaque; use a rubber tip gum tool with a drop of either Yogi Tooth Serum or Healthy Gum Drops or Ozonated Healthy Gum Gel.
Step Six: Flossing
Floss two times! Apply a drop of Yogi Tooth Serum or Healthy Gum Drops along the floss.
Step Seven: Final Rinse
Use salt rinse again – vigorous swish and spit.
Step Eight: Extra Care
For receding gums, bleeding gums or any area that needs extra attention, apply Yogi Tooth Serum, or Healthy Gum Drops. Ozonated Healthy Gum*Gel is great to use throughout the day and it is also beneficial to apply and leave on your gums as your final step after the mouth is clean
