The Best Way to Brush Your Teeth
As purveyors of all things good-grooming, we're always looking for tips and tricks to help guys look and feel their best. Admittedly, a lot of the time that focuses on shaving and clothes, and somewtimes we forget the more quotidian tasks like brushing your teeth. I mean, really, when was the last time you even thought about it?
So imagine our surprise when we discoved a guy who was so passionate about this often overlooked activity. And imagine how surprised we were to discover that we've been brushing our teeth wrong the whole time. We were so blown away that we invited Dr.Scott Fey to tell us how to brush your teeth the right way.
Does the Order of Brushing and Flossing Really Matter?
You may not think the order in which you decide to brush, floss, and use mouthwash is important, but the order of your daily dental hygiene routine can have a large impact on the how much tooth-strengthening fluoride is available to the surface of your tooth enamel.
Fluoride is one of the most effective ways we have of strengthening teeth to counteract the daily wear and tear of the modern diet, which contains more damaging acids and sugar than ever. With fluoride forming an essentia line of defense, we want to maximize its availability to our teeth when we use it in toothpastes and mouth rinses, and following the correct tooth-cleaning sequence on a daily basis can make a big difference to dental health.
Step 1: Floss First
Floss cleans plaque out from the nooks and crannies in between your teeth, in the places your toothbrush can not reach. We want to have these interproximal (that's dentist-talk for between teeth) surfaces cleansed and ready for maximum fluoride delivery in order to prevent cavities from forming between your teeth. Flossing at the beginning helps you remember to do it because you get it out of the way first.
If you use a tongue scraper or any other special tongue cleaner, use it at this time.
I want to be clear that I am using the term "flossing" generically and speaking about all interdental cleaners; if you hate traditional floss and use something like a Waterpik (which is awesome by the way—free plug) or another interdental cleaner, this is perfectly fine, and in many cases, preferable.
Step 2: Now Brush Your Teeth
Make sure you brush using fluoridated, low-abrasive toothpaste.
Toothpaste is an extremely effective delivery vehicle for fluoride so we want to make sure our toothpaste has fluoride in it. If you prefer things au naturel, I would recommend Tom's of Maine Gentle Clean Toothpaste with fluoride. It is SLS-free and a pretty solid toothpaste overall.
The most important part of this step is that once you are done brushing spit out the toothpaste thoroughly but do not rinse with water afterwards. For extra points, you can even swish the foamy toothpaste around if you can before spitting it out. Toothpastes have a small degree of substantivity (stickiness) and we want to allow it to coat our teeth. This does not mean you are swallowing gobs of frothy toothpaste; you still spit it out completely.
Step 3: Lastly Rinse with Mouthwash
Using a low-fluoride, alcohol-free mouthwash to rinse for 30 seconds to 1 minute then spit.
Rinsing with a fluoride mouthwash at this stage will do two things for your teeth. First, it will help maximize the delivery of fluoride by working in conjuction with the fluoride provided by your toothpaste. Additionally, it will dramatically increase the contact time your teeth have with fluorde after your hygiene routine (by some estimates, a 90% increase in fluoride retention). This is even more important at night when your teeth are repairing themselves from any harsh acids or sugars encountered during the day.
Please avoid "all-natural" mouthwashes: they are highly acidic and typically have no fluoride in them. I would also take care to avoid any fluoridated mouthwashes that contain citric acid as a preservative—citric acid has calcium-stripping properties which can negate the positive effects using a fluoridated mouthwash by attacking calcium-rich dental enamel.
Changing the order in which you clean your teeth is something really simple that you can do today to get more out of oral hygiene, and it can go a long way towards keeping your teeth strong and healthy.
Dr. Scott Frey is a Fellow of the World Congress of Minimally Invasive Dentistry and soon to be a practicing orthodontist in Allentown, PA (once he completes his residency in orthodontics in February 2013). He is the founder of MorethanSmiles.org, a nonprofit organization seeking to improve oral health by providing orthodontic scholarships and by spreading uncommon oral health solutions.

I've been doing it wrong this whole time.
I heard of these lollipops that fight cavities a while back. According this video they still exist. What's your opinion of substituting them for brushing?
These are the basics in order to have proper oral care. Knowing how to properly brush, floss and rinse could be an advantage for us not to have dental or oral health diseases. Also, don't forget your regular dental visits to check whether you need dental treatment as early as possible.
Yay, I've been using the correct steps this whole entire time. What a relief.
I had a visit from a dental nurse, and she advised me to stop using mouthwash after brushinf my teeth. But considering I had no problems before I took her advise, this is what I had suffered for 4 days and 4 nights. I had developed ulcers under my tongue, making eating literlly painful when i ate any food. So now i have gone back to rinsing my mouth with a n alcohol free mouthwash, and my ulcers are now thankfully on their way out.
Great read! This is definitely a good start when trying to maintain a healthy smile!
In my opinion flossing is really important and absolutely must for every single person who wants to have healthy mouth. Interesting article! Thanks for the post! Cambrisge Heath Carpet Cleaners Ltd.
Maintaining proper oral hygiene is important. And there are proper ways to do so. I just never thought that the order of brushing and flossing might have an impact too. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us through this wonderful article.
In my opinion teeth are really important and absolutely must for every individual's personality. People who want to have healthy teeth need to follow the above instruction.
My dentist at Koppelman Dental taught me the best way to clean my teeth and since then I haven't gotten any cavities at all! One thing I didn't realize is I should brush after every meal, even if I'm away from home.

Simple, effective.
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I frequently have to load a 14' canoe by myself, on top of our SUV. Before the Waterslide, I had to worry and exert and wimper about the potential for dragging the canoe on the rear edge of the roof, scratching the roof.
After one challenging riverside loading session that did in fact generate a scratch, I went looking for solutions. This is THE solution.
It's easy to use, easy to store, and functions perfectly. Unless it's windy, I don't bother to use the velcro straps...the sticky rubber side holds it in place very effectively.
When it is windy, the velcro is very easy to use, and hooks onto your rack to hold the Waterslide in place while you load.
With the Waterslide, canoe loading is much less stressful...I don't have to worry about the canoe hitting the roof, because even if it does, it just slides along the Waterslide as intended.

Where is the plan to get us out of the EU?
Posted: May 26, 2014|
PROVIDED he wins the general election in 2015, Mr Cameron has promised to renegotiate our relationship with the European Union and repatriate important powers.
The prime minister will then grant us an 'In/Out' referendum before the end of 2017, with the choice of either staying in the reformed EU or leaving altogether.
Unfortunately for Mr Cameron, the hierarchy of the EU have already said that these powers are non-negotiable.
A few minor points may be granted, so that Mr Cameron can come home and claim a victory for the United Kingdom without losing face, but it is certain that he will not win these concessions, and negotiations will not be completed before the end of 2017.

It is also noteworthy that none of the political parties, including UKIP, have published any plan for extricating the UK from the myriad laws and regulations introduced by our membership of the EU that are now on our statute book, assuming that the 'Outers' win the referendum.
It seems that Labour and the Lib Dims see no need for such a plan, as they have no intention of leaving the EU; UKIP haven't bothered because they have no hope of winning the election; and Mr Cameron will make very sure that the 'Inners' win the referendum.
The country will, therefore, be faced with the choice of remaining in a virtually unchanged EU, or leaving for an uncertain future. They call it democracy.

REGARDING the plans by Nottinghamshire County Council for a vast (79 hectare) new sand and gravel quarry site near Barton in Fabis as part of their Minerals Local Plan, three million tonnes will be taken out of the area over 12 years and this greenfield site along the Trent lost for ever.
This site is directly opposite Attenborough Nature Reserve – some 40 metres across the Trent – and would have a devastating impact upon it.
Added to this, it is close to Holme Pit (Site of Special Scientific Interest) and is bordered by a Site of Important Nature Conservation.
Developing the area will mean the loss of high-grade farmland and the council itself admits the site scores 'very negatively' in terms of resulting flood risk.
The impact on communities from noise and dust 12 hours a day every day on both sides of the Trent at Barton, Attenborough, Beeston Rylands, Clifton Village, Barton Green (Clifton) will be huge.
This is a beautiful and historic part of the Trent Valley, criss-crossed by footpaths and used by walkers, horse riders and fishermen from all over the county.

I READ with interest the article about the Golden Jubilee of the Church of the Good Shepherd in Thackeray's Lane, Woodthorpe.
However, I realised that something was amiss about the story, as my sister Janice Brisland (who was head girl at the Manning School in 1950-51) was married in the Church of the Good Shepherd, Thackeray's Lane, Woodthorpe, in May 1957 to Derek Brisland.
This was before the church opened, according to your article.
What I think should have been the story is that a new church was built 50 years ago to replace a previous church on that site.
This fact has never been mentioned in any of the articles I have seen on the Golden Jubilee.
Jean Anderson, who was head girl of the Manning in the year following my sister, confirms my story of the wedding at the Church of the Good Shepherd in May 1957 as she was at the wedding, as was I.

The highway is planned to start from Vetren, pass through Rudnik Quarter, the villages of Laka, Kamenar, Kableshkovo, Tankovo and Kosharitsa, and to come out at Obzor Resort. A transport connection between Hemus Highwy and Cherno More Highway is also planned. Along the whole highway there will be only one tunnel, which will be about 1 km long and will be situated between Obzor and Sveti Vlas. The highway will be 100 km long and its construction will cost 320 million EUR. At the end of last year another transport project, a 26 km-long road from Bourgas to Sunny Beach was announced. The road will be part of the future highway and will make easier the traffic to the largest beach resort on the Southern Black Sea coast. Its construction should be finished in three years.

BALTIMORE, Md. – Kelsey Hogan (Nashua, N.H.) tied her career high of 20 points, but the University of New Hampshire women's basketball team was defeated 59-50 by UMBC in Wednesday night's America East action at the RAC Arena.
UNH, which had defeated UMBC by one point in early January, is now 9-14 overall and 4-7 in America East. UMBC improved to 9-16, 5-7.
Hogan, who was named UNH's America East Player of the Game, also tied her personal best with four 3-pointers for the second consecutive game; she was also credited with three rebounds and two assists. Morgan Frame (Waterville, Maine) finished with nine points and eight rebounds. Kaylee Kilpatrick (Saint John, New Brunswick) also had eight rebounds.
UMBC was led by Kristin Coles (16 points, nine rebounds) and Raven Harris (16 points, seven rebounds, four assists, three steals).
After falling behind 3-0, the Wildcats took a 4-3 lead when Hogan scored a layup on a right baseline drive at 17:35 and Kilpatrick hit a free-throw jumper at 16:50. It proved to be their only lead of the game. UMBC, behind six consecutive points from Ashley Lambert, responded with an 8-0 run to build an 11-4 advantage.
Stephanie Spoto (Pittsford, N.Y.) converted Hogan's long outlet pass into a layup at 11:34 to trim the deficit to five points. Following a basket by Coles that pushed the score to 13-6, Hogan drilled a 3-pointer from the left corner and Spoto hit a jumper from the right elbow to lift the 'Cats within 13-11 at 9:37. Frame's fastbreak layup made it a one-point game, 14-13, at 8:51.
UNH trailed 18-13 when Elizabeth Belanger (Acton, Mass.) hit a 3-pointer from the top of the key to pull the 'Cats within two points. UMBC scored six consecutive points to extend the advantage to 24-16 before Frame's three-point play reduced the margin to five points at 4:24. The Retrievers outscored the visitors 3-1 the rest of the half to take a 27-20 lead into halftime.
The teams traded scores the opening five minutes of the second half and Hogan's 3-pointer from the left wing closed the deficit to 35-29 at 14:20. UNH trailed by nine points, 38-29, when Belanger hit one free throw at 13:12 and then Spoto found Jilliane Friel (Durham, N.H.) on a backdoor cut for a layup at 12:30. Following a defensive stop, Spoto's short jumper trimmed the deficit to 38-34 at 12:01.
UMBC answered with a 9-1 run the next four minutes to build a 12-point lead of 47-35 with 8:18 remaining and the Retrievers seemingly held an insurmountable 54-41 lead with 1:02 to play, but the Wildcats closed with a flourish.
Hogan hit a 3-pointer just four seconds later and UNH called its fourth timeout of the game. Following a pair of Harris foul shots, Hogan buried another shot from 3-point range to advance the score to 56-47 with 47 seconds on the clock. Coles, who made all six field goal attempts in the game, missed both free throws and Friel's 3-pointer from the left wing sliced the margin to 56-50 with 26 seconds remaining.
Out of New Hampshire's final timeout, the Wildcats immediately fouled Kim Browning but she hit both foul shots. She hit one more with 20 seconds left and Harris grabbed the rebound off the missed second free throw with 20 seconds to play to secure the victory.
New Hampshire returns to action Feb. 16 (1 p.m.) at Boston University. The Wildcats then begin a three-game homestand Feb. 20 (7 p.m.) against the University of Hartford.

How To Roll A Bowling Strike
how to roll a bowling strike
is a big step to improving your overall scores. The goal of any beginner bowler, newcomer to the game, or even competitive bowlers averaging up to 150, is to deliver your ball into the pocket for the best chance of getting a strike. There are a few key factors in learning
how to roll a bowling strike
. These factors are as follows:
1. Pocket Location
2. Initial Alignment
3. Alignment Adjustments
Rolling a strike is sometimes a matter of good fortune. Strikes can come by way of missing the head pin and with pin-action on the deck, pins can tumble and fall causing non-ordinary strikes. Strikes can come from cross-over hits where a bowler targets one pocket area of the pin formation but misses with the ball delivery, crosses over to the other pocket, and gets a strike. By far and away, the greatest number of strikes consistently come from pocket hits. The 1 & 3 pin combination constitutes the pocket for right handed bowlers and the 1 & 2 pin combination constitutes the pocket for left handed bowlers. If the pro bowlers we see on TV target the appropriate pocket, then it means the greatest chances of getting a strike is by hitting the pocket squarely and doing so repetitively for good scores. Let's take a closer look at our three keys in rolling a strike:
1. Pocket Location
- The center of the pocket is located on the 17.5 board on the pin deck. Using a right handed bowler as the example, the pocket is on the 17.5 board counting from the right edge of the lane. The center of the "head pin" pin spot on the pin deck is located on the 20 board, the exact center of the bowling lane, which also aligns with the center bowling arrow 15 feet beyond the foul line of the approach and with the center dot on the approach in various distances from the foul line.
It is recommended by the bowling ball manufacturers (after years of testing and experimentation) for you to release the ball between 18 - 21 miles per hour so the ball will impact the pins between 15 - 18 m.p.h. mph. The average velocity between 16-18 m.p.h. is suggested for balls traveling down the entire distance of the lane to achieve optimum pin carry and to control
bowling ball
motion as consistently as possible.
A pocket hit is one in which the bowling ball contacts the head pin first on the right side of the pin and then contacts the 3 pin next (right handed bowlers). Ideally, the angle of entry the bowling ball arrives at the pocket is about a 30 degree impact angle as the ball travels from bowlers right to bowlers left but varies from player to player and with lane conditions.
2. Initial Alignment
- New bowlers without any previously coaching typically roll the
bowling ball
from random angles on strike deliveries. These bowlers achieve random results and seldom improve because they have no system of initial alignment nor for adjustments. It is important to use the lane oiling procedure found in most
bowling centers
in the country as an aide and alignment guide.
The highest volume of oil conditioner is generally applied to the lane surface located between the 2nd arrow on the right of the lane and the 2nd arrow on the left side of the lane. Also, the heaviest volume of oil is located from the foul line where the bowling ball first contacts the lane surface down the lane to approximately 20 feet distance past the foul line. Of course, each bowling center has its own oiling procedures, but in most cases, the 2nd arrow is a good place for an initial alignment to the pocket.
If you roll a perfectly straight ball delivery, you will have to use an angle from about the 6 or 7 board from the edge of the lane just beyond the foul line toward the 10 board (2nd arrow) and continuing down the lane to the pocket at 17.5 board. Your sliding
bowling shoe
should end up with the instep about 5 boards left of the release point where your ball first contacts the lane surface just beyond the foul line (again, for right handed bowlers) which is the 11 or 12 board, in this example for straight ball players.
If you have a modest curve or hook ball delivery, then you will use an angle from left of the 10 board, say about the 13 or 14 board just beyond the foul line, your slide shoe instep will cover the 19 board when completing your slide into the foul line, and your ball will continue toward the 10 board or 2nd arrow, and then continuing further down the lane to the break point about two-thirds the way down the lane, and then finally hooking to the pocket on the pin deck.
Power players, those players using a high revolution delivery and those who produce a lot of hook on the bowling ball, will use a wider angle toward the 2nd arrow target on the lane than will the modest hook player. Players using a great deal of hook will have a high risk and high reward scenario awaiting them. A modest hook delivery will be the easiest to get into the pocket consistently on standard house lane conditions but the power player/big-hook delivery will create a strong angle of entry into the pins and produce the greatest percentage of pin carry and strikes. The greater hook you roll, the more challenging it is to be accurate.
In cases with right-handed bowlers using "back-up" ball deliveries should use an alignment for a left handed player.
3. Alignment Adjustments
- Adjustments from an initial alignment position will be needed when a ball is delivered accurately toward the 2nd arrow but does not end up solidly impacting the pocket. Make sure you are delivering your ball at a consistent ball speed each delivery before making an adjustment.
The amount of lateral adjustment for missing the pocket from your initial alignment, either to the left or to the right, depends on how far you missed the pocket after rolling your ball over your target. One proven and tested system over the years for most house lane conditions is a "parallel adjustment system." This system simply means to move your feet two boards on the approach while adjusting your target on the lane one board (half as much as your feet positioning), in the same direction, either to the left or to the right, depending on whether your ball missed the pocket solidly to the left or to the right. Simple enough!
For example, right handed bowlers (left handers may use an opposite adjustment technique), moving your feet two boards to the right right and your target on the lane one board right is a good adjustment when your ball slides too far and misses the pocket solidly to the right. This angle adjustment automatically closes your delivery angle on the lane and creates a more direct route for your ball to travel and contact the pocket.
If after adjusting 2:1 ratio to the right and your ball still does not make it to the pocket solidly, then adjust another 2:1 boards to the right. Continue making 2:1 ratio adjustments until your angle matches to the oil conditions and your ball finally contacts the pocket solidly. By the way, the pocket is located on the pin deck and at the 17.5 board.
Adjusting in the opposite direction, 2:1 boards to the left from your initial alignment positioning, will work for lanes which have less than heavy oil and which causes your ball to hook too early and miss the pocket to the left (again in the case of right handed bowlers). Multiple adjustments of 2:1 boards, either left or right, will either close your angle to the pocket on oily lanes or open your angle to the break point down the lane on dry lanes.
After your initial alignment, the lane conditions will change in time depending on how much bowling is done on the lane during a given session. In the case with league bowling, you may have to make your first adjustment for the pocket perhaps before your first game is completed, depending on how many bowlers are on your pair of lanes. You might need to make several adjustments during your league session on the lanes. Be ready to react and make an adjustment once you roll a good delivery and your ball no longer contacts the pocket solidly.
Of course, parallel adjustments may also be made in increments of 1:1 ratios for the fine tuning adjustments and in ratios of 3:1 for greater angle changes to the break point down the lane. The 2:1 common parallel adjustment typically works very effectively on most house conditions and if the oiling conditions are not too severely oily or dry.
recommends practicing making parallel adjustments, in both directions and multiple times during open bowling sessions where your scores do not matter. Make a series of adjustments in both directions so you become comfortable and familiarized with playing angles other than only the 2nd arrow and so you will trust them during competition.
also recommends consulting a certified bowling instructor or local bowling professional to help you with an initial alignment procedure. Knowing how to align yourself on the lanes and where to site as a target matching to the oil conditions on the lane surface is key in achieving success and in throwing strikes. Please do not shy away from taking a bowling lesson if you are in doubt about how to align yourself and which target to site.

I am happy to see I was of help!
New additions: I love Nova much and I think the third name with similar meaning in one family is not odd but cool. I like Neva too(know it's not on your list but similar to Nova and a beautiful river) and Lydia, the latter is very vintage for my ears(a family name) and ver pretty.

More than meets my needs
I purchased this cart to help me move my groceries from my car to the house in one trip as it is a physical challenge for me to do this. I assembled the cart in about half an hour and it works like a champ. Folds nicely to fit in either the front seat or the trunk and carries all my groceries into the house in one trip. The only thing I had to work around is that when I have to make a slight turn the wheels do not readily want to do that so I have to stop and nudge it a little in the right direction. Other than that my husband and I have used it for a multitude of task and it has met all challenges.Read More
Worth its weight in GOLD
Great purchase. Easy to put together..It is hard to steer when it is full, but is a lifesaver when coming home from shopping to my 4th floor apartment. Very large and hard to fit in trunk, so when I get home from shopping I have to get from my apartment, BUT it is worth it..Read More
Strong order (paint)
The smell is very strong....worried it could be toxic. I had to air for almost a month before trying to assemble. The worst part I was missing a part (rear axle), cant use until part is replaced. I might ask refund, not sure worth the priced paid.Read More
Green Jumbo Shopping Cart
This cart arrived quickly and was easy to put together. It rolls easy over curbs and around corners. Unfortunately, it has to live out in the garage because the powder-coating really smells of strong chemicals. Otherwise, it fits the bill of shopping at the Farmers Market as long as it is lined.Read More
Positive and Negative
The cart is about what I thought it would be with the exception of some things. First, the tires glide very smoothly which is nice. However the tires do grab and keep very small stones in the tread, which I have to vacuum up in my home. Most of the stones stay in the tread, but many fall out It is necessary to purchase a basket liner to carry items in, since the basket grid has very large openings and most anything will hang or fall out. Even grocery bags work themselves partly out between the basket grid and rub on the tires. The handle is covered with a plastic that may or may not wear well.....remains to be seen. I am not sorry I purchased the cart, but think it was over-priced. Especially since I must purchase a basket liner.Read More

WVU Hospitals considers dropping docs' white coats
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- WVU Hospitals is considering replacing doctors' white coats and ties with scrubs.
The proposed change in attire is an effort to control the spread of infections, said Matt Loos, vice president of medical staff affairs.
Loos said the neonatal intensive care unit has seen a dramatic decline in patient infection rates since a similar policy was implemented.
He discussed the proposed change during a WVU Hospitals Board of Directors meeting last week, The Dominion Post reported.
Frank Briggs, vice president of quality and patient safety, said there is an international push to replace doctors' white coats and ties with scrubs and that the change is underway in the United Kingdom.
Ohio gas prices still coming down
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Gas prices in Ohio keep moving in the right direction.
After hovering around $4 a gallon for a couple weeks because of refinery problems in the Great Lakes region, prices at the pump here have fallen 42 cents in the past two weeks.
The state average for a gallon of regular gas was $3.50 in Monday's survey from auto club AAA, the Oil Price Information Service and Wright Express. That's down 24 cents less than at the same time last week.
The Ohio price is now below the national average of $3.57 -- 4 cents lower than last week and 7 cents lower than this time last month.
Refinery problems were blamed for pushing gas prices way up earlier in June.
Buffalo Trace distillery gets landmark spot
FRANKFORT, Ky. -- The National Park Service has designated Buffalo Trace's George T. Stagg Distillery a National Historic Landmark.
The designation highlights it as a "highly intact" example of pre-Prohibition industrial architecture that also shows how distilling expanded once the federal ban was repealed in the early 1930s. The Lexington Herald-Leader reported buildings are in active use and feature quarry-faced stonework and decorative brickwork in a 1930s-era factory.
Other barrel warehouses and buildings are much older, dating to the 1790s.
The National Park Service says the distillery was established in 1857-58 and acquired in 1870 by E.H. Taylor Jr., whose portrait hangs in the yeast room.
Newspaper execs embrace online news delivery to readers
WASHINGTON -- Executives at some of the nation's largest newspaper companies say they are more hopeful about their future after seeing readership grow for digital subscriptions.
Speaking at the American Society of News Editors' annual convention, the newspaper executives said increased usage of their digital products is resulting in higher revenue.
Patrick J. Talamantes, president and CEO at The McClatchy Co., says that his company is getting an additional $25 million in revenue this year from its new subscription models that charge for online content.
Mark Thompson, president and CEO of The New York Times Co., also reports success from its digital subscriptions. Readers typically must pay to read stories on The New York Times' website after viewing 10 stories for free each month.

A stroke is sometimes called a "brain attack." If blood flow is cut off for longer than a few seconds, the brain cannot get nutrients and oxygen. Brain cells can die, causing lasting damage. I Would Like to Learn About:Expand All Collapse All Causes There are two major types of stroke: Ischemic stroke Hemorrhagic stroke Ischemic stroke occurs when a blood vessel that supplies blood to the brain is blocked by a blood clot. This may happen in two ways: A clot may form in an artery that is already very narrow. This is called a thrombotic stroke. A clot may break off from another place in the blood vessels of the brain, or from some other part of the body, and travel up to the brain. This is called cerebral embolism, or an embolic stroke. Ischemic strokes may also be caused by a sticky substance called plaque that can clog arteries. StrokeStroke - secondary to cardiogenic embolismA hemorrhagic stroke occurs when a blood vessel in part of the brain becomes weak and bursts open. This causes blood to leak into the brain. Some people have defects in the blood vessels of the brain that make this more likely. These defects may include: Aneurysm Arteriovenous malformation (AVM) Hemorrhagic strokes may also occur when someone is taking blood thinners, such as warfarin (Coumadin). Very high blood pressure may cause blood vessels to burst, leading to hemorrhagic stroke. An ischemic stroke can develop bleeding and become a hemorrhagic stroke.High blood pressure is the main risk factor for strokes.

In some cases, a person may not know that a stroke has occurred. Most of the time, symptoms develop suddenly and without warning. However, symptoms may occur on and off for the first day or two. Symptoms are usually most severe when the stroke first happens, but they may slowly get worse. A headache may occur if the stroke is caused by bleeding in the brain. The headache: Starts suddenly and may be severe May be worse when you are lying flat Wakes you up from sleep Gets worse when you change positions or when you bend, strain, or cough Other symptoms depend on how severe the stroke is and what part of the brain is affected. Symptoms may include:Change in alertness (including sleepiness, unconsciousness, and coma) Changes in hearing Changes in taste Changes that affect touch and the ability to feel pain, pressure, or different temperatures Clumsiness Confusion or loss of memory Difficulty swallowing Difficulty writing or reading Dizziness or abnormal feeling of movement (vertigo) Eyesight problems, such as decreased vision, double vision, or total loss of vision Lack of control over the bladder or bowels Loss of balance Loss of coordination Muscle weakness in the face, arm, or leg (usually just on one side) Numbness or tingling on one side of the body Personality, mood, or emotional changes Trouble speaking or understanding others who are speaking Trouble walking Exams and Tests The doctor will do a physical exam to: Check for problems with vision, movement, feeling, reflexes, understanding, and speaking. Your doctor and nurses will repeat this exam over time to see if your stroke is getting worse or improving. Listen for an abnormal sound, called a "bruit," when using a stethoscope to listen to the carotid arteries in the neck. A bruit is caused by abnormal blood flow. Check for high blood pressure You may have the following tests to help find the type, location, and cause of the stroke and rule out other disorders: Angiogram of the head to look for a blood vessel that is blocked or bleeding Carotid duplex (ultrasound) to see if the carotid arteries in your neck have narrowed Echocardiogram to see if the stroke could have been caused by a blood clot from the heart Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) or CT angiography to check for abnormal blood vessels in the brain Other tests include: Blood tests Electrocardiogram (ECG) and heart rhythm monitoring Treatment A stroke is a medical emergency. Quick treatment is needed. Call 911 or your local emergency number or seek urgent medical care at the first signs of a stroke. People who are having stroke symptoms need to get to a hospital as quickly as possible. If the stroke is caused by a blood clot, a clot-busting drug may be given to dissolve the clot. To be effective, this treatment must be started within 3 to 4 1/2 hours of when the symptoms first started. The sooner this treatment is started, the better chances of a good outcome. Other treatments given in the hospital will depend on the cause of the stroke. These may include: Blood thinners such as heparin, warfarin (Coumadin), aspirin, or clopidogrel (Plavix) Medicine to control risk factors, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol Special procedures or surgery to relieve symptoms or prevent more strokes Nutrients and fluids Physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and swallowing therapy will all begin in the hospital. If the person has severe swallowing problems, a feeding tube in the stomach (gastrostomy tube) will likely be needed.The goal of treatment after a stroke is to help you recover as much function as possible and prevent future strokes. Recovery from your stroke will begin while you are still in the hospital or at a rehabilitation center. It will continue when you go home from the hospital or center. RecoveryA stroke happens when blood flow to any part of the brain stops. Each person has a different recovery time and need for long-term care. Problems wit...Read Article Now Book Mark Article Support Groups Support and resources are available from the American Stroke Association: www.strokeassociation.org. Outlook (Prognosis) How well a person does after a stroke depends on:The type of stroke How much brain tissue is damaged What body functions have been affected How quickly treatment is givenProblems moving, thinking, and talking often improve in the weeks to months after a stroke.Many people who have had a stroke will keep improving in the months or years after their stroke. Over half of people who have a stroke are able to function and live at home. Others are not able to care for themselves.If treatment with clot-busting drugs is successful, the symptoms of a stroke may go away. However, patients often do not get to the hospital soon enough to receive these drugs, or they cannot take these drugs because of a health condition.People who have a stroke due to a blood clot (ischemic stroke) have a better chance of surviving than those who have a stroke due to bleeding in the brain (hemorrhagic stroke).The risk for a second stroke is highest during the weeks or months after the first stroke. The risk begins to decrease after this period. When to Contact a Medical Professional Stroke is a medical emergency that needs to be treated right away.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. --- New Mexico women's basketball (23-10) advanced to the second round of the Women's National Invitational Tournament (WNIT) Wednesday with a whooping 72-44 victory over Southern (16-14) inside The Pit. Lobo Amy Beggin led all scorers with 15 points and became the sixth player in UNM history to reach 1,000 points as a junior. Every Lobo scored in the first round blowout and set the stage for a rematch with Nebraska Wednesday, March 25. New Mexico will host the Cornhuskers next Wednesday at the Santa Ana Star Center in Rio Rancho, N.M.
The Lobos improved to 7-3 all-time in the WNIT and will play their first game at the Santa Ana Star Center Wednesday at 7 p.m. Tickets for the Nebraska-New Mexico game will go on sale Thursday at 12 p.m. MT. Tickets are $5 for UNM students, $10 for reserved seating and $20 for floor seats. Contact the Santa Ana Star Center at 505-891-7300 for tickets or visit www.SantaAnaStarCenter.com
Beggin highlighted the win after reaching the career mark and only played 31 minutes. Beggin as 9-for-9 from the free throw line and had five assists. Beggin is the 16th player to reach the 1,000 point plateau at New Mexico. She currently has 1,010 points for her career.
UNM had four players score in double figures and got 28 points from the bench. Senior Amanda Adamson chipped in 15 while fellow senior Angela Hartill scored 11. Junior Georonika Jackson came off the bench to score 10 and hit two three-pointers. Jackson reached double figures for the third time this season.
New Mexico dominated from the very beginning and led 11-2 after the first six minutes. The Lobos continued to stretch the lead for the remainder of the half and led by as many as 23 with 1:32 left in the opening period. New Mexico took a 38-15 advantage into the locker room.
The second proved to be more New Mexico as they outscored the Jaguars 34-to-29 in the final 20 minutes. Every Lobo played double figure minutes and UNM shot 43.9 percent from the field as a team.
Southern was held to 19-of-66 shooting from the field and did not have a player score over eight points. Deidra Jackson and Tiffany Foster both scored eight for the Jaguars.

I thought the food was excellent, i really enjoy their fried mushrooms, they are thick battered and of quality. There hot chicken fingers are good but kinda soggy but if you order the sauce on the side it eliminates that issue. I prefer their new yorkers sauce, it's spicey but doesnt leave that painful fire after taste. Lunch time it usually is packed and if you order the mushrooms it always take longer it seems. But over all this food is great, but not for the health concious. enjoy!

From the outside you would never know that this establishment serves the best chicken sandwiches in NY and perhaps in the entire world. The Virgin Chicken Sandwich is perfect, and it approaches divine with a little squirt of ketchup. If you think a good sandwich is a wrap with sprouts and sundried cranberries you will want to avoid this place at all costs. This is for true food lovers who understand that the best tasting chicken breast is one that has been deep-batter-fried and served on a nice bulky roll. The wings here are also excellent. My food theory is almost always right: The worse a place looks on the outside, the better the food is on the inside... because when you have great food, you don't need to trick people into coming in with "fancy lights" and "clean windows". This place is no exception. Look past the appearance and enjoy the best chicken sandwich you'll ever eat!

Terminator wings are a must, they are very hot but irresistible! All our guests seem to appreciate it too. The same sauce options on wedges makes ordering wedges a lot more interesting. Lastly, the free delivery incentive works great for us. Well done!

Plain and simple: This place has great wings, a nice menu ane nice sandwiches. I like the ability to put wing sauce on my cheese fires. 2 greasy, hot sauce covered thumbs up!

I tried Best Wingers after reading the reviews here. While I agree that the wings are good (but no match for Blondies' best), and the garlic and cheese style are definitely unique, tasty alternatives to red and bleu -- the quality of food is exactly what you pay to receive. After trying the Roman chicken sandwich, which would be the PERFECT snack after a night of drinking (lots of cheesy, garlicky breaded grease to absorb that alcohol), I felt as if I should make an appointment to get my cholesterol checked -- the food is fatty, carb-loaded fare, with very little "green" to balance it out. The burgers are backyard bbq-style, juicy but (again) greasy, and the fries are battered and thick cut style -- good stuff. I wouldn't recommend making this a regular spot to order from, for obvious health reasons, but once in a while, urged on by the vapors of alcohol, I'd succumb to its cheap eats allure.

I didn't know what to expect so I let my friend order first and once I had a chance to see the food I had to order and once I got a taste, I was like wow this is real good food that is very affordable. One of the best deals in nyc period. I kow good food and this is definitely worth it. And they have the food delivered by moped which means it's very fast the food comes piping hot right off of the grill. I close my eyes and think I'm really at a bbq in someones backyard. Stop here you will not be disappointed.

Pelvic Floor Disorders: Overview
The pelvic floor of the male appears to have some impact on sexual function, although its exact role is unclear. One male sexual condition may be helped by pelvic floor therapy, especially men with chronic pelvic pain syndrome. Male pelvic pain syndromes have traditionally been associated with infectious causes or prostate gland inflammation. In many cases, however, evidence of a bacterial etiology is nonexistent, while evidence of prostatic in?ammation is con?icting and nonspeci?c. More plausible causes of prostatitis-like symptoms may include musculoskeletal pain, pelvic ?oor muscular dysfunction, myofascial pain syndromes, or functional somatic syndromes. A study comparing pelvic ?oor muscle EMGs of male patients with chronic pelvic pain to normal subjects reported that men with pelvic pain manifest pelvic ?oor muscle instability compared with normals. The study concluded that pelvic ?oor muscle EMG may be a valuable screening tool to identify patients with chronic pelvic pain syndrome who may bene?t from therapies aimed at correcting pelvic ?oor muscle dysfunction. In fact, pelvic ?oor biofeedback has been studied and found effective in the treatment of men with chronic pelvic pain syndrome. Physical therapy that includes pelvic ?oor biofeedback and manual therapy techniques should be considered as well in the treatment of male chronic pelvic pain.
Physical therapy may also be helpful in some men with premature ejaculation. Ejaculation is controlled by the sympathetic nervous system. The proposed mechanism whereby active pelvic ?oor muscle control may delay its onset may be related to inhibition of the ejaculation re?ex through intentional relaxation of the bulbocavernous and ischiocavernous muscles active during arousal. This may be facilitated by releasing the levator ani muscles through an active relaxation of the pelvic ?oor muscles with avoidance of valsalva. This is a learned technique, which may be mastered using pelvic ?oor biofeedback. Pelvic ?oor exercise has been reported in the treatment of premature ejaculation. La Pera and Nicastro published their ?ndings that 61% of patients with premature ejaculation reported that they were better able to control the ejaculatory re?ex after 15–20 sessions of pelvic ?oor rehabilitation. The rehabilitation protocol included exercise, intra-anal electrostimulation, and biofeedback with an anal pressure probe. The exercise portion of the treatment consisted of basic pelvic ?oor isometric strengthening activities in supine and standing. The mechanism behind actually controlling the ejaculation re?ex through the pelvic ?oor is not clearly understood; however, the exercises do provide self-familiarity and body awareness, which may help improve self-con?dence and sense of control.

American Idol
Simon Cowell Thinks The X Factor Is Better Than American Idol
Missing Simon Cowell, American Idol fans? He doesn't miss you! The King of Mean has moved on to chromer pastures with his new show, The X Factor, and he's so, so happy. He's singing "Unchained Melody" practically nonstop now. Seriously though, Simon is making $75 million a year with his new project, but it's not about the money, he tells TV Guide.
By the end of his Idol run, "It wasn't fun anymore," says Simon. He missed the freedom of the early days. "Nobody knew who I was, and in a way that was quite comforting. No matter what happened, we were going to make the show we wanted to make. But as we got more successful, many more people arrived … So many watching you, sending emails." Poor Simon and his high, high ratings.
So does Cowell have anything nice to say about the show that made him famous in America? "I was making a lot of money on American Idol, but I did X Factor because I genuinely felt this was a better show." Ouch.
So what makes The X Factor so great? "I personally was happier sitting on a show where older people could compete with younger people who could compete with groups. I just preferred that process. And because I was producing X Factor, it had more of my character on the show. So I'm sure some performers would prefer to be on Idol or The Voice, but you'll see the ones we backed sit better with us."
So much for keeping down the number of emails in his inbox.

What is the
The Global
Learning Initiative is a Winthrop University plan to integrate Global
Learning intentionally into the Touchstone (general education) Program.
Why did Winthrop University create the GLI?
In 2010-11,
Winthrop University underwent reaffirmation from its accrditing body, the
Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS). SACS requires that each
institution undergroing reaffirmation identify a component of its
undergraduate program to improve. This is called the Quality Enhancement
Plan (QEP). The GLI is Winthrop University's QEP.
What is the purpose of the GLI?
The purpose of
the GLI is to improve student learning in three general categories; global
knowledge, global attitudes and global engagement.
How did Winthrop University choose the GLI?
The GLI is the result of a two-year process that involved the entire Winthrop Community:
faculty, staff, and students. The process involved focus groups and
surveys and presentations of different project ideas. The GLI
emerged from a consensus that today's college students need more
information about, and experience with, the world in order to be
prepared for life and careers in an increasingly integrated and
globalized world.
How will the GLI affect the student experience at Winthrop
Students will encounter more Global Learning Components in their
Touchstone Program courses, starting with ACAD 101 and HMXP 102.
They will also see more Global Learning Cultural Events on campus
and may even be required to attend some as class assignments.
Students will learn more about study abroad opportunities in their
major programs and perhaps be inspired to spend a semester or year
abroad. Students may take part in global engagement experiences,
such as appropriate service learning projects, or become Peer
Mentors in ACAD 101. Finally, students may be involved in sponsoring
or performing in Global Learning Cultural Events.
How can students get involved in the GLI?
In many ways,
Serving on one of the five committees involved with implementing the GLI;
Sponsoring Global Learning Cultural Events as part of DiGiorgio Student Union Program Board or through their major programs;
Attending Global Learning
Cultural Events;
Participating in musical, dance, or theatrical performances that are Global Learning Cultural
Seeking out Touchstone Program courses that have Global Learning Components;
Seeking out Global Engagement Experiences;
Participating in short-term and long-term study abroad opportunities;
Becoming a Peer Mentor
How can
faculty get involved in the GLI?
Serving on one of the five committees
charged with implementing the GLI;
Sharing their
experiences of integrating Global Learning Components into their courses;
Developing short-term study abroad
students to study abroad;
Participating in
workshops and TLC
sessions on the Global Learning Initiative;
Global Learning Cultural
Global Engagement Experiences;
students with international experiences to become Global Peer Mentors;
possible titles for the Common Book or for adoption in the HMXP 102 reader;
Integrating new
and/or additional Global Learning Components into their courses; and
Teaching ACAD
101 and HMXP 102 if trained.
How long will the GLI last?
The GLI is a
five year plan, which started in the 2011-2012 academic year and
will continue through 2015-2016. In the 2015-16 academic year, Winthrop
will determine whether and how to continue and expand the GLI.
How will we know if the GLI is successful?
Key personnel in
University College, in conjunction with various faculty and staff committees, will regularly assess student learning outcomes in the three general categories (global knowledge, global
attitudes, and global engagement), and adjust the program as appropriate.
Where can I learn more?

GLI proposal .

"The Iraqi government is dysfunctional, the Iraqi security forces are inadequate, ill-equipped, and we've got very little time. By the way, I'm not recommending we come out of Iraq in a year or three. That's what's going to happen. This thing is over."
"We're going to see some Iraqi two-star general in charge of Iraq three years from today," he predicted, some "hot-shot division commander" who seizes control. The best hope is that it is not another Saddam Hussein.
"Let's be very clear," former Army War College commandant Robert Scales Jr. testified. "Regardless of strategy or who's in office, we're going to get out of Iraq, just driven by the conditions of the military."

Instead of talking what might have been with Ryan instead of Long, how about instead shifting the convo to taking Long and then trading up to leapfrog above the Ravens for Flacco? After all its not like he wasn't already on everyone's radar zooming up the draftboard on the basis of the Combine?

So you are lucky to have met JP but it is thanks to both of you that you are together and happy after all these years.Nuts about foodhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7435765198465520140.post-66508012565278956322011-07-19T00:46:54.877-07:002011-07-19T00:46:54.877-07:00We made some for last night.

There are just so many things to admire about you, Jamie: your heartfelt honesty and wisdom about marriage being one of them.

Cornerstone University is suing the federal government over a provision of the Affordable Care Act that requires employers with health insurance plans to provide birth control, according to a letter from university President Joseph Stowell.
The Christian liberal arts university already covers some forms of birth control, but Stowell argues it's unconstitutional to require Cornerstone to provide "access to drugs that can induce abortions."
"This filing is first and foremost an effort to preserve and protect our religious freedom as guaranteed by the First Amendment," he wrote. "Given our conviction that life begins at conception and our commitment to the sanctity of life, we find the mandate to provide our faculty, staff and students with insurance that provides access to abortion-inducing prescriptions unacceptable."
Cornerstone is jointly filing the suite with Dordt College, a Christian liberal arts school in Sioux Center, Iowa. The lawsuit is to be filed in Iowa.
