Easy Approval Process For Construction Equipment Financing With ClearPath Financial
Great Rates For Good Credits But A Program For All Credit Scores
24-60 Month Term
Skip Payments
Dealer Or Private Party
Equipment Of Any Age
Start-ups Or Established Companies
Some Programs Do Not Credit Score
ClearPath Financial is a specialist in Construction Equipment Financing. We work hard for business owners to help make their dreams a reality. We have several construction equipment financing programs for established contractors with good credit scores and most require little or nothing down. Many of our heavy construction equipment programs are also application only - meaning that no financial statements are needed for a quick and easy approval.
However, our specialty is working with business owners with less than perfect credit or people who have been turned down by traditional sources. Our bad credit construction equipment financing program looks beyond credit score and investigates the cash flow and the pending contracts for your company. We even consider additional collateral and co-signors. We believe in second chances and prefer helping the "under dog" to succeed.
Our Application process is easy to complete and we have experience in obtaining approvals for start-up companies - no easy task in today's financial environment. So whatever your situation, start-up or established business, good or challenged credit, give us a call at 203-405-2286 or complete our safe and secure online application by clicking on the link below.
Take advantage of ClearPath's wide credit window and complete our easy one page application today.
Construction Equipment Financing For Equipment Older Than 10 Years
Have you been told by other lenders that they are unable to provide Construction Equipment Financing because the equipment age is greater than 10 years? Don't let the equipment age or a Private Party sale get in your way. ClearPath has the resources to not only finance equipment that is older than ten years, but we can usually get you approved for a longer term, meaning more manageable payments during slower business periods.
Approvals For Heavy Construction Equipment Using Additional Collateral
Most approvals for heavy construction equipment are credit decisions based on the FICO Score of the business owner. However, ClearPath Financial also works directly with collateral lenders to help business owners with poor credit overcome past tax liens, judgments, slow pays and bankruptcy. These approvals are based upon the value of the equipment, not your credit score. Simply be willing to collateralize your new piece of equipment with another piece of equal or greater value and we'll have you approved the same day.
Looking To Refinance Your Existing Loan – Give Us A Call. We Can Lower Your Monthly Payment!!
Call Today For Our Inventory of Heavy Construction Equipment For Sale
We prefer to help you purchase the equipment of your choice from a private party or your local dealer. However, sometimes past credit problems or current cash flow can get in the way. Construction Equipment that our partners have in their inventory is often financed with no money down. Since the equipment goes very quickly, give us a call today at 203-405-2286 to discuss our current inventory of heavy equipment located in the Northeast.

The London Philharmonic Choir joined international musical forces in the Vatican to perform a concert dedicated to the reconciliation of followers of Jewish, Christian and Muslim faiths.
80 members of the London Philharmonic Choir flew to Rome to take part in this extraordinary concert in the presence of Pope John Paul II in the Paul VI Auditorium at the Vatican on Saturday, January 17.
The concert was given in honour of Pope John Paul's twenty-five year pontificate and celebrated his lifelong commitment to understanding between the Abrahamic faiths, Judaism, Christianity and Islam. The American conductor, Gilbert Levine, often called 'the Pope's Maestro' though he himself is Jewish, selected the choir on the basis of his knowledge of their high musical standards. They sang Mahler's Second Symphony, the 'Resurrection', with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra from the United States of America, the Krakow Philharmonic Choir from Poland and the Ankara State Polyphonic Choir of Turkey. The soloists were Ruth Ziesak, soprano, and Birgit Remmert, contralto. Levine chose the Mahler because the spiritual journey towards God expressed in the work is part of all three religions' beliefs, although they are different in doctrine.
Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra commissioned for the occasion a six-minute choral motet with brass accompaniment, 'Abraham', from the American composer John Harbison. It is a powerful setting of the text from Genesis containing God's promise to Abraham, 'thou shalt be the father of many nations', and opened the concert.
Guests at the concert included many leaders of the Christian, Jewish and Muslim faiths, together with ambassadors of many countries, including the British and US Ambassadors to the Holy See.
The concert was broadcast live in Germany and Italy and can be viewed on the dedicated website: www.papal-concert-of-reconciliation.com. The site also includes interviews with a number of participants, including our Chairman, Peter Taylor. The BBC also covered the event and the reports can be read and viewed on their site.
A DVD of this event is available from the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra website.

I got the Edge 80 on Saturday and immediately shot a couple of test images. Since we no doubt will see digital images from this lens almost exclusively I thought a little bit of good old fashioned film would be nice for comparison. One thing I do notice is that the bokeh tends to be much smoother with digital vs. film, however I love what film can offer for it's other qualities.
These were taken with a Canon 7E, composer Pro, Edge 80, on Lomography Color Negative 100. I shot a whole second roll on Kodak E100VS and that is at the lab now so look for some cross processed shots next week.
These are as scanned, no post processing. Look at that rich color pop. This is a nice glass and the 12 bladed aperture is sweet. ;)

COVINGTON -- For those who want to stay comfy and cozy this winter without going broke, the Municipal Gas Authority of Georgia and Better Business Bureau are offering energy conservation tips.
"Poorly maintained systems can create many problems, ranging from heating inefficiency to breakdowns and release of dangerous fumes," said Fred T. Elsberry Jr., president and CEO of the Better Business Bureau serving metro Atlanta. "An annual investment in home winterization is money well spent."
One way to substantially decrease energy bills is to replace 25 percent of the lights in high-use areas of the home with compact fluorescent lighting. This can save about 50 percent on the lighting portion of an energy bill, according to MGAG.
Another way to save energy, and therefore, money, is to use lower-wattage bulbs and turn off lights in rooms that are not being used. During the day, open curtains to make use of natural light. Use photocell or timers to turn off outdoor lighting during the day and install motion detectors on outdoor security lighting so the lights come on only when needed.
Air leakage, or infiltration, is one of the most preventable energy wastes, according to MGAG. Infiltration typically occurs around doors, windows and points where different materials meet, such as brick and siding. The culprits are usually windows, walls and ceilings, ventilation and air conditioning systems and openings for pipes, doors, vents and wall outlets.
Ways to reduce infiltration include caulking to fill cracks and stop leaks around fixtures, pipes and between walls and windows, along with applying weather stripping to reduce air leakage around doors and windows. Leakage around doors and windows can account for 10 to 25 percent of home heating bills, according to MGAG.
Investing in an insulation system can save up to 30 percent on energy bills. MGAG also recommends having home heating and cooling systems serviced at least once a year to make sure they are at peak performance. Thermostats should be set at 68 degrees in the winter and 78 degrees in the summer, and filters should be cleaned or replaced monthly.
Water heating typically accounts for about 14 percent of a utility bill. Ways to cut down on the cost include using less hot water, repairing leaky faucets and insulating the water heater tank and hot water lines or buying a new, more efficient unit, like a tankless water heater.
The Better Business Bureau recommends cleaning or replacing furnace air filters and having a professional do an inspection to make sure the furnace is still working properly. Before lighting the first fire of the season, BBB suggests having the chimney checked for animals, nests, leaves and other debris. Also, be sure to install a tight-fitting fireplace door or cover to stop loss of heat through the chimney.
Attic vents or windows should also be closed to prevent heated air from escaping and cold air from seeping in, BBB advises. Clear gutters and ridge vents to prevent or remove buildups that would cause rainwater to clog, freeze and damage gutters. Ridge vents should be cleared to allow the house to breathe properly to eliminate stagnant air inside.

Center update: the more options, the better
There is no clear reason why the Mavericks would be interested in Marcus Camby, who reports say will be bought out by the Toronto Raptors, except for the fact that they have no center on the roster these days.
The point is that every center who comes available via the waiver wire, amnesty provision or simply by having a growth spurt that hits at the right time will be of serious interest to the Mavericks.
professional writing service
The tea leaves still suggest that Samuel Dalembert is their best option and that both sides believe it will happen.
But these things never are as simple as they should be.
Again, for MFFL's out there, just be on the lookout for anybody 6-10 or bigger who might come available. Doubtful the Mavericks wouldn't already know about him, but you never know.

I searched the web for a definitive answer but still could not find definitive specs for what is called DTS CD i.e. CD encoded with audio in DTS format.
As I understand DTS files are "encapsulated" in wav format so to the CD player thay look like "normal" wav files i.e. 16 bit, 44.1khz etc but then inside the fake wav file is a DTS encoded audio info. Now, what are the specs for the actual DTS stream inside the "wav" file i.e what DTS bit rates, sampling freq. etc are allowed?

Ok. What about the sampling freq, can DTS-CD contain 48,000 Hz files?It could depend on the (DTS) encoder, but so far I was only able to encode 44.1kHz input files on DTS-CD. When trying 48kHz the playback speed was totally wrong.
The PCM "noise" is stereo 44.1 kHz, but when decoded, the DTS stream will be 5.1-channel 48 kHz. [..] I don't know how this would work for DTS 96/24 streams though, whose bitrates are probably higher.DTS(WAV) files can be either either 44.1 or 48kHz. AFAIK the DTS-CD (44.1kHz) that can be burned on a CD, can only contain 44.1 kHz payload (see above). You can use 24 bit input however (as you can for making mp3's). The 96/24 extension can only be used in a full bit rate, 1536 kbps, stream and it will have a 48kHz core for backwards compatibility.
BTW the channel layout does not necessarily have to be 5.1. It could also be 5.0, 4.0 or even 2.0 although the last one is hardly ever used (I'm not sure about 4.1).
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice.

I produce 3D audio disc that you can play on a regular 7.1 home theater system if you use a switcher for Center and LFE channels.
Two more satellites are needed, as Lsh and Rsh, and you must use Lh and Rh.
I can assure you that you can store and playback eight channels at 24 bit, 96 kHz using DTS HD Master Audio and HDMI 1,4 to connect the player and the A/V receiver.
In my opinion this is the best configuration in terms of quality.
My two cents...

"They say, that they have measur'd many a mile, To tread a measure with you on this grass" – Love's Labours Lost
The 23rd of April this year marks the 450th anniversary of the birth of England's greatest writer, the legendary playwright William Shakespeare. His many masterpieces have become invaluable cultural treasures, surviving their author to be retold in countless forms over the years.
The Bard's plays are most commonly talked about in terms of his creative use of language and emotive stories which span the ages, but often overlooked is his use of romantic real-world settings to frame his tales. The city or country the playgoers are transported to is key to understanding the story.
Feeling inspired? Travelling to and immersing yourself in these remarkable places is an unusual and innovative way to appreciate the Bard's work. To celebrate the great writer's 450th Birthday, we've come up with a list of our top five Shakespeareian settings (and a few quotes to boot), as well as our suggestions for the best way to get there and soak up the culture of these incredible places!
"All that glitters is not gold; Often have you heard that told" – The Merchant of Venice
The world-famous floating city is featured in some of Shakespeare's most renowned plays; its romantic associations, vivid and appealing culture and truly unique aesthetic make it the perfect stage for the Bard's masterful brand of storytelling. From tranquil gondola rides along the picturesque network of canals to discovering the intricate detail of Saint Mark's Basilica, Venice is a must-visit city.
Inverness/The Scottish Highlands
"By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes" – Macbeth
One of Shakespeare's greatest and best-known tragedies, much of Macbeth is set in Inverness in the Scottish highlands, a land of mountains, great castles and sweeping moors. Today, the wild beauty of this land persists – the towering fortresses, grandiose landscapes and, perhaps most notably, the majestic wildlife make this harshly sublime northern land a truly exceptional place to visit.
Highland & Island Wildlife of Scotland
"Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war!" – Julius Caesar
Formerly the capital of the greatest empire on Earth, Rome was the seat of the great Julius Caesar and the epicentre of culture in the western world. The base of Caesar's power is suitably imposing, the iconic arches and columns of the architecture creating a magisterial sense of authority and cultural dominance. 2,000 years later the iconic buildings remain, and Italy's capital is a thriving hub of culture, elegance and taste.
"Good night, good night! parting is such sweet sorrow, That I shall say good night till it be morrow" – Romeo & Juliet
Arguably Shakespeare's most successful and ubiquitous play, Romeo & Juliet is perhaps the greatest love story ever told. "In fair Verona, where we lay our scene" is the second line of the play, and Verona is nothing if not fair. A gorgeous sprawl of plazas and arched bridges, terraces, balconies and magisterial churches of white stone, Verona is a portrait of the essence of Italy.
"Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind, And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind" – A Midsummer Night's Dream
Shakespeare's most magical romantic comedy takes place in the rich forests surrounding this great city. Named for the ancient god of wisdom Athena and built around the remnants of the world's most progressive ancient civilisation, Athens is a cultural and historical marvel. The well-preserved architecture is astounding, and the legacy of the birthplace of democracy is awe-inspiring to behold.
Exit, pursued by a bear.

"Whitey: The Life of America's Most Notorious Mob Boss," Dick Lehr & Gerald O'Neill (Crown, 435 pages, $27)
Many books have been devoted to the exploits of Whitey Bulger, but author Dennis Lehane says this new book, by the reporters who dogged Bulger's trail, has brought the story "full circle — a true circle of hell." The entire story is within these pages, and the photographs show a very young man beginning his crime education and then moving up the mob ladder until he stood on the top — then disappeared for 15 years, only to be brought back, yet again, for justice.

I made one of the tastiest things I have in a while – Cajeta. Similar to Dulce de Leche, this Mexican treat is made by reducing goat's milk with cinnamon and sugar until it caramelises.
The recipe I used was out of Rick Bayless' excellent book, Mexican Kitchen. The result was thick, creamy, and utterly delicious.
In fact, I have never made anything from that cookbook that wasn't fantastic (as long as I could get my hands on the ingredients, which isn't easy in Ireland!)
If you want to try it, there is a recipe here or here.
We ate it mostly over vanilla ice cream (see right), and it disappeared pretty quickly, I can tell you. Ausra, from our Dingle shop found an excellent use for it – a Cajeta Latte – a Mexican twist on a caramel latte. Yum!

Women Caring for the Land(SM)
Women, Food and Agriculture Network (WFAN) has developed a program called Women Caring for the Land℠ (WCL), designed to serve female non-operator landowners who are interested in learning more about conservation.
The program is successful, popular, and in increasing demand among both women landowners and agency partners such as NRCS and the Iowa Department of Natural Resources.
The WCL Website
The WCL website provides many of the resources and learning activities used in the WCL meetings. It also contains additional videos of women landowners discussing their land management and conservation stories. Women can also find news updates and events related to conservation on their land and sign up for the WCL newsletter, "Patchwork."
The WCL Curriculum: Improving Conservation Outreach to Female Non-operator Farmland Owners
This manual is intended to give users an overview of the rationale and methodology for targeting outreach to non-operator women landowners, particularly those 65 and older who now control a significant percentage of US farmland. It also provides a number of conservation demonstration activities, which range from very simple to more complex, both in concept and execution.
We acknowledge that many women landowners are extremely knowledgeable about soil, farming, and land management. However, our meetings tend to draw a very diverse group of women, including some who have little or no experience or knowledge of these topics, and who are just beginning their journey of learning. These less informed women are eager to learn from the more informed women, and some of the simplest activities in this manual are perfect for bringing them up to a basic level of understanding so they are confident and ready to learn more.
Adult learners who are hesitant to ask questions are able to absorb important information through simple activities, and get answers to questions they may have felt would sound "dumb" if asked in the group. We often get comments from women landowners following meetings such as, "Thank you for explaining it in a way I can understand."

Rogers will play against Oregon again on Saturday, but the circumstances will be much different from the 2010 game.
Rogers is three weeks removed from his suspension at Tennessee and transfer to Tennessee Tech. With no more than a basic understanding of the playbook, Rogers leads or is tied for the team lead in catches (eight), receiving yards (163) and receiving touchdowns (two).
"It's all been moving a little fast trying to get acclimated, you know, with school, moving in, learning a new playbook and game planning for a whole new set of teams," Rogers said. "It's been good, all the coaches have been welcoming, all the players and students of the school have welcomed me in."
Before his first game at Tech, Rogers revealed that failed drug tests led to his departure from UT. With Rogers' inclusion on Tech's team contingent upon conditions laid out in a private pact with coach Watson Brown, the tone in Cookeville is one of cautious optimism. Rogers has said and done all the right things in his first few weeks on campus.
"So far, he's been a great team player," Brown said. "He's not over there wanting the ball. He's cheering when he's not in the game. I think he's been a good addition for us.
"He's going to class. He's been acting very mature. ... I'm very pleased with him so far."
With little time and limited options, Rogers faced a tough decision when trying to find the right fit with a new school. He turned to Hal Lamb, his high school coach from Calhoun, Ga., for guidance.
"I think that's the role of a high school coach," Lamb said. "Any time one of your former players needs help, you help him any way you can."
Lamb said he received text messages from several schools interested in bringing Rogers in, but with his son, Tre, as the starting quarterback and former Calhoun running back Adam Urbano also on the roster, he thought Tennessee Tech was the best place for Rogers.
"I wanted to get him somewhere that he knew some guys," Lamb said. "I really didn't want him to go anywhere where he didn't know anybody."
Rogers was never a teammate at Calhoun with Lamb or Urbano, who are seniors at Tech. Rogers transferred to Calhoun before his junior year.
Still, Rogers said there is a level of comfort playing with guys from home.
Rogers also attributes his decision to feeling comfortable with the guidance he would receive from Brown.
"He's a good character guy," Rogers said. "That's one of the main reasons I came here to play for him."
With only 142 miles separating Cookeville and Calhoun, accessibility for family and friends was also a factor.
On-field impact
Lamb said having the SEC's leading receiver from 2011 on the field goes well beyond the numbers he puts on a stat sheet.
"He makes us better as a team because they are having to play two-on-one over there (on Rogers) all the time," he said. "That means we're playing 10-on-nine."
"That means so much to our running game," Brown added. "When you can't put that extra guy in the box because you have to put him over there on (Rogers), that opens up a lot of things for us."
The Golden Eagles (2-0) lead the Ohio Valley Conference in points per game (41.5) and total offense (513 yards).
Tech takes a big step up in competition with Saturday's game at No. 4 Oregon. Still, Rogers is hoping to have a better performance than his first game against the Ducks.
"Hopefully we can come out and run our offense and get them on their heels," Rogers said. "I'm going to work hard to make as many plays for the team as I can."
Community's abuzz
The addition of Rogers has created a buzz in Cookeville, with Tennessee fans taking the opportunity to get a look at the former Vol.
"It has got me excited," Cookeville resident Jeremy Jones said. "You've got a big name that I used to go to Knoxville to watch. Now that he's closer to home, I'll come see his talent here."
Jones wore a Vols hat to Tech's 42-14 win Thursday against North Greenville. He said it was the first Golden Eagles football game that he had been to in a "very long time."
Another Vols fan and Cookeville resident, Scott Smith, attended his first Tennessee Tech game on Thursday to catch a glimpse of Rogers.
Both said they were likely to continue to follow the Golden Eagles and support Rogers.
"I'm disappointed in his actions," Smith said.
"He let the team down. He needs to straighten up, but you can't hold that against him. Hopefully he grows from it and moves on."
"I still support him as a fan," Jones said.
"Everyone has their challenges."
Still a Vol at heart
Rogers says that although his official ties with the UT football team have been terminated, he is still connected with many of his former teammates.
"I still talk to Justin (Hunter), Tyler (Bray), Rajion (Neal) and all those guys," Rogers said. "They're like my family there."
Rogers said he tuned in to see the Vols in their season-opening win over North Carolina State and hopes to make a trip to Knoxville to watch a game.
"I think the offense looked good," Rogers said. "I know people didn't expect to see that spread offense, and I know they didn't expect Cordarrelle (Patterson) to do what he did. It will be a good year for them, I feel."
Rogers wishes he had been there in Atlanta.
"After you've been waiting ever since last year the first day you heard, 'Oh, we're opening up the season in the (Georgia) Dome, at my house, where I've lost two state championships,' you were dying for that game to come along. But then it had to end.
"I was just watching and supporting, wishing I was out there with those guys. But you know, everything happens for a reason, and I'm glad to be here with great guys."

Causes for dry mouth in the morning can range from excessive snoring due to sleep apnea to having swelled and inflamed sinus passages because of an undiagnosed allergy. Other common reasons for morning dry mouth include: excessive caffeine, sugar or alcohol consumption prior to falling asleep, nasal polyps that obstruct airways and taking medications that further reduce the ability for salivary glands to produce sufficient saliva during sleep.
Any one of these problems will impede your ability to breath normally while you sleep, i.e., through your nose instead of your mouth. Additionally exacerbating the fact that salivary glands reduce the amount of saliva they secrete during sleep is the excessive amount of air being inhaled and exhaled through the mouth when breathing problems exist.
Morning Breath
Why does having a dry mouth during the night cause your breath to smell so bad in the morning? The answer to this question is the same answer that correctly explains why we have bad breath at all--anaerobic bacteria.
Within the human mouth lives billions of bacteria, some beneficial, some not so beneficial. While anaerobic bacteria are responsible for consuming any mouth debris that does not get rinsed away by saliva flow or removed via good oral hygiene practices, they are also responsible for the excretion of gases that give "bad breath" its name.
Mouth debris such as food particles, mucus, dead tissue and blood that often seeps from canker sores, lesions, abscesses and gums infected with gingivitis provide protein-rich food from which these bacteria receive their energy. Because oral anaerobes do not possess the enzymes necessary to detoxify waste products, the volatile sulfur compounds constituting this waste give breath that "rotten egg" smell common to halitosis sufferers.
Volatile sulfur compounds, or VSCs, consist mostly of:
- Cadaverine--emanates from a decaying corpse
- Skatole--the odor identifying feces
- Isovaleric acid--contained in sweaty feet perspiration
- Putrescine--the smell produced by rotting meat
The only time anaerobic bacteria are not exuding these foul odors is when the environment in which they live is sufficiently oxygenated and clean. Since saliva is primarily responsible for keeping the mouth moist, oxygenated and debris-free, the lack of saliva found in a dry mouth in the morning will be the root cause of bad breath.
How Saliva Protects the Mouth
Oral anaerobic bacteria cannot live in oxygenated conditions, nor can they live where there are no proteins to consume. Saliva is necessary to prevent the mouth from being overwhelmed with anaerobes and the noxious VSCs they produce, as well as providing the mouth with:
- Antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal properties that protect the mouth from teeth and gum disease
- Acid neutralizing substances that directly attack plaque, a common cause of periodontitis
- Help in the remineralization of tooth enamel by providing calcium and phosphorous
- Initiating the digestion process in the mouth by breaking down food with powerful enzymes
- Enhancing your sense of smell and taste
Saliva also aids in preventing plaque buildup, a film of bacteria that adheres to teeth and protects anaerobes lying underneath the film from being exposed to oxygen. Plaque needs to be eliminated each day by brushing, flossing and using an oxygenated, alcohol-free mouthwash or it will harden into a harmful substance called tartar. Unless tartar is removed by a dentist, it will rapidly lay the foundation for cavities, tooth loss and chronic halitosis. Click here to read more about Dental Plaque.
The Tongue and Back of the Throat
Also accompanying dry mouth in the morning is a dry tongue and throat, attractive places to anaerobic bacteria for the purpose of consuming proteins and reproducing. The tongue has thousands of fissures in which bacteria can hide from oxygen, especially near the back, which explains that fuzzy, white coating composed of bacteria you see covering your tongue in the morning. In fact, half of the sulfuric gases emitted by oral anaerobes originate from the tongue, where mouth debris like dead epithelial cells and post nasal drip mucus can also find refuge in tongue crevices.
The back of the throat contains huge amounts of anaerobic bacteria as well, mainly because it is hard to reach with toothbrushes and consistently provides a stagnant and oxygen-poor environment. Post nasal drip and thick mucus also offer rich amounts of food for oral bacteria to consume, which means more VSC excretion and worsening mouth odor.
Temporary Remedies for Dry Mouth in the Morning
- For relief of congested, swelled nasal passages, using medicated nasal spray or nasal dilator strips may help open passages so that air can flow more freely to prevent mouth breathing. However, when nasal spray is used for more than three days, the nasal tissues actually become accustomed to the spray and will swell unless more spray is introduced into the nose, regardless if the user is suffering from an allergy or cold. Moreover, nasal dilator strips do not work with everyone and may only provide partial relief from a stuffy nose.
- Avoid drinking alcohol, acidic citrus juices and consuming beverages with a high caffeine content before going to bed
- If you are a smoker, try not to smoke several hours before retiring. Drink several glasses of water instead to hydrate the mouth
- Avoid consuming salty snacks before bedtime
Oral Hygiene Products that Worsen Dry Mouth in the Morning
What many people do not realize is that the products they use to clean their mouth--mouthwashes, toothpastes, gargles--are actually aggravating the dryness of their mouth in the morning.
Research into morning dry mouth causes has discovered that toothpastes containing sodium lauryl sulfate, a highly abrasive foaming agent, and mouthwashes containing over 20 percent alcohol are the primary culprits in creating a fertile breeding ground for oral anaerobic bacteria while a person is asleep.
Because alcohol has antibacterial properties, most name brand mouthwashes include large amounts of it in their formulas. However, it is also an extreme desiccant and contributes to further inhibition of the saliva gland functioning at night as well as during the day.
Used by manufacturers solely as a foaming agent, sodium lauryl sulfate does not benefit oral health or contribute to fresh breath in any way. In fact, SLS is known to provoke canker sore development and tissue abrasion, which only supplies anaerobes with more protein-rich food to consume and eventually emit as VSCs.
TheraBreath AktivOxigen Serum
One of the most effective methods to combat dry mouth in the morning and wake up with fresher breath is Dr. Harold Katz's AktivOxigen Serum. Containing exclusive oxygenating ingredients that not only hydrate your mouth but also eliminate anaerobic bacteria hiding in the throat and tongue fissures, the products in this kit provide all you need to banish morning breath as well as keep your breath fresh and clean all day.
TheraBreath products are used by millions of people worldwide. Click here to read some of their success stories.

Angiogenesis: A biochemical/mathematical perspective
Howard Levine (Department of Mathematics, Iowa State University)
(May 31, 2007 10:30 AM - 11:30 AM)
Angiogenesis is one of the many important processes that occurs in both normal development such as placental growth and embryonic development as well as in abnormal growth such as in the rapid growth of malignant tumors. The purpose of this talk is to give a sense of some of the underlying biochemical and mathematical ideas that have been coupled together to model this process. Most of what we have to say here has already appeared in the mathematical biology literature. However, we have added some new modifications that have yet to appear but that may offer new insight into modeling this complex phenomenon.

Man allegedly beats, robs friend
BREMERTON - A Bremerton man was arrested on suspicion of first-degree robbery for allegedly breaking into a friend's house, pistol-whipping him and stealing his belongings.
A couple and their two young kids were sleeping at their Old Military Road home Thanksgiving morning when they heard a knock at the door around 2:30 a.m. The victim looked out the peephole and saw his 22-year-old friend standing on the front porch. He opened the door and the man immediately pulled out a pistol and pointed it at the resident's head. The resident tried shutting the door, but two other men appeared and helped push it open, according to police reports.
The intruder pistol-whipped the resident several times, knocking him out. When he awoke, two intruders had guns to his head while a third man gathered items to steal. They took electronics, cash, jewelry and cellphones.
Deputies later got a tip that the 22-year-old was at Walmart in East Bremerton and arrested him without incident, sitting in a car in the parking lot. He was booked into the Kitsap County jail with bail at $100,000. It wasn't immediately known if the other two men had been apprehended.

Harare's white farmers seek dialogueComment on this story
Harare - Zimbabwean white farmers dispossessed of their farms under President Robert Mugabe's land reform laws are seeking dialogue with the government to help revive the country's ailing agricultural sector, their union said on Thursday.
"This solution must re-establish the basic fundamental foundations needed for rapid economic recovery and economic gain," said Charles Taffs, president of the predominantly white Commercial Farmers Union (CFU).
The union is also proposing that a bond underwritten by a top global financier be created to compensate former white farmers for properties seized.
The controversial land reform introduced by Mugabe in 2000 to reverse colonial imbalances brought Zimbabwe's agricultural sector to its knees.
Over 4 000 white farmers were forcibly removed from their land and their farms given to landless blacks, many of them with no formal farming skills.
Mugabe has said Zimbabwe will compensate farmers for improvements made on their farms but not pay for land, saying Britain, the country's former colonial ruler must do so.
Since the land reforms were introduced over a decade ago, Zimbabwe has gone from being a net food importer to being unable to feed its population, leaving people dependent on aid.
"We at the CFU firmly believe that this situation need not continue and that a solution to this crisis can be found," said Taffs.
Some dispossessed farmers are now plying their trade in neighbouring countries, and other groups have sought compensation through the regional Southern African Development Community (SADC) tribunal. - Sapa-AFP

According to the most recent statistics reported in 2011 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), nearly 10 million Americans were diagnosed with chronic bronchitis in 2010. Yet, people often mistakenly believe that the condition isn't life-threatening and ignore the signs until it has advanced to dangerous stages.
Chronic bronchitis develops over time rather than striking suddenly. Because many people who develop chronic bronchitis are smokers, some with the condition assume that they just have "smoker's cough." Though early symptoms of bronchitis may seem mild, a persistent cough may belie a more serious problem that requires medical attention and ongoing treatment.
Bronchitis can be either acute or chronic, and is determined by symptom duration. Acute bronchitis is more common, often developing from a cold or other respiratory infection. It generally clears up on its own within a few weeks without lasting effects, though a nagging cough may linger for several weeks after the bronchitis has resolved. Repeated bouts of bronchitis that continue beyond several weeks may indicate chronic bronchitis—a recurring long-term condition that can be managed but not completely cured.
The American Lung Association (ALA) defines chronic bronchitis as the onset of a mucus-producing cough most days of the month, three months of the year, for two consecutive years without any other underlying condition to explain it. If you have chronic bronchitis, you may also develop emphysema. Together, the two conditions are referred to as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD.
While bacterial or viral infections often cause the initial airway irritation that leads to acute bronchitis, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) confirms that cigarette smoking is the most common cause of chronic bronchitis. In fact, 90 percent of those with the disease have a history of smoking, according to Johns Hopkins Medicine. Secondhand smoke can also contribute to chronic bronchitis. Other possible causes include extended exposure to air pollution, industrial or chemical fumes, toxic gases, and dust. Repeated lung infections may also damage the lungs and can worsen symptoms.
Bronchitis is the irritation and inflammation of the lining of the bronchial tubes, or air passages. This irritation and swelling cause excess mucus in your airways that leads to coughing, and makes it difficult for air to move through your lungs. The irritation can also damage cilia, the hair-like structures that help to keep your air passages clear from mucus. In this condition, air passages become a likely breeding ground for infections.
After a long period of airway irritation, chronic bronchitis can result in several hallmark symptoms, including constant production of excess mucus that may appear clear, white, yellow, gray, or green. As airway passages continue to thicken, breathing becomes increasingly difficult, resulting in an irritating, heavy cough that may produce an ounce or more of mucus daily. This may cause scarring in the lungs. Other symptoms may include fatigue, fever, chills, and chest discomfort.
The symptoms of chronic bronchitis may wax and wane over time. Your cough may disappear temporarily, only to be followed by a period of worsened coughing. At times when you experience heightened symptoms, you may have acute bronchitis on top of chronic bronchitis.
If you're uncertain about whether or not your symptoms are those of chronic bronchitis, a number of tests are available to help your doctor make a definitive diagnosis:
Failing to receive timely treatment for chronic bronchitis can put you at risk for serious injury to your lungs, including respiratory problems or heart failure. When implemented early, treatments and lifestyle changes can effectively help manage the disease and improve your quality of life. Seek medical assistance if your cough:

Wisconsin's two largest teachers unions will talk about merging as membership declines due to an overhaul of collective bargaining power.
The Wisconsin Education Association Council voted over the weekend at a special assembly to join the American Federation of Teachers-Wisconsin in talks to merge the groups.
Leaders of both unions say membership has declined about 30 percent since the state's new collective bargaining law, known as Act 10, took effect. The law pushed by Republican Gov. Scott Walker ended most collective bargaining for the majority of public workers.

From left, Dan Porter, Eric Thompson, Chris Johnson, Shawn Hunter and Molly North are pictured in Denver on Nov. 16.
- Filed Under
The effort to deliver our bid to bring the USA Pro Challenge to Northern Colorado finished with a group ride delivering the signed ceremonial document to the race's offices in Denver.
But the process to host a leg of the race started more than a year ago. First, there were casual what-if conversations among community leaders in local coffee shops. Then there was the thrill of watching the race finish in Steamboat Springs and dreaming about a similar sprint blazing into the heart of Old Town, the twitchy eagerness to get involved and then the measured but still disappointing, moment we told the community we were looking further down the road than 2012. In that moment, we were confident the race belonged in Northern Colorado but knew the community was understandably disappointed to sit out a second year in a row.
The effort that ensued and the bid that emerged from that effort were extraordinary. Rather than thinking as cities, as previous stage hosts had done, we recognized that our strength lie in the fact there is no such thing as a Fort Collins cyclist or Estes Park cyclist.
The city limit signs and various governments jurisdictions don't limit our rides; we all ride all over the Front Range. We're all Northern Colorado cyclists. And with that recognition, we came up with a radical approach. Where previous cities had bid to host a start or a finish, and leave the in-between to the race organizers, we developed a powerful coalition and worked together to develop a route that we believe showcases the best of Colorado and creates a thrilling battleground for a pro race stage.
Bringing together representatives from the various municipalities, business leaders experienced in raising money and managing large projects, plus cycling community leaders passionate and informed about bike racing, the team spent months developing a route, leadership team structure, fundraising strategy and a bid document that seamlessly showcased the interest and commitment of an entire region. The team even created a short video, featuring many of our committee members on bikes, expressing support for the effort.
All of this culminated on Nov. 16 at The Ranch Events Complex in Loveland. After a route presentation by our committee spokesman Eric Thompson, president of Group Real Estate, representatives of the cities and towns of Loveland, Windsor, Estes Park and Fort Collins and Larimer County signed a commitment to bringing the race to Northern Colorado, rolled it into a postal tube and handed it to me.
Outside I was greeted by a huge group of local cyclists, fortified against the chilly November air with gloved and winter jackets. We departed on a 65-mile quest. Across dirt roads, state highways and bike paths, through Front Range farmland and into the heart of downtown Denver, we arrived finally at the race's Denver office where we were greeted by race CEO Shawn Hunter, his staff and a number of local media. Eric and I unrolled the signed document and presented it to Hunter, who would later declare that our gesture and effort had "raised the bar."
We expect roughly a month between the bid deadline and the route announcement, but the team is confident that we've submitted a compelling, powerful proposal and we're expecting the best. In the meantime, I've been possessed with a combination of relief and satisfaction at an effort of which we're all proud, gut-wrenching anticipation for the announcement and giddy excitement about the potential this event holds for showing the world how much cycling means to Northern Colorado.
No sooner do I breathe a sigh of relief that this tremendous effort of developing and delivering this proposal is behind me than I remind myself that, in all likelihood, if we succeed in conveying the grassroots dedication and stunning natural beautify of our region, the real work is only beginning.

Carrington Place by Americare was recently recognized for outstanding resident care (employee relations, community relations, business operations) at the company's 32nd annual meeting in Kansas City, Missouri. Carrington Place met very stringent criteria in order to be considered for the award including (for resident care: annual state survey results and internal quality assurance audit results, for employee relations: annual employee satisfaction survey results and low annual turnover rates, for community relations: customer satisfaction results and customer service training compliance, for business operations: community census results and budget compliance results).
The award(s) represent the four tenants of Americare's operating philosophy which states that each facility's first responsibility is to the residents it serves, second is to the employees it hires, third is to the community in which it operates and finally is to its owner by operating in a financially responsible manner.
"Our operating philosophy is more than a plaque on the wall," states Americare President Clay Crosson. "Our communities use it to guide their operating decisions each day. It puts residents and employees first. We believe if you take care of the residents and the employees who serve them then the business will thrive. Our annual awards ceremony is a much-anticipated part of our company's culture and rewards those top performers. These awards are difficult to achieve and we're very proud of all the winners," he adds.
In addition to the award(s) it received Carrington Place was also elevated to the gold level of the company's Honor Club. Communities with Honor Club distinction meet even more-narrow award criteria in each of the four philosophy areas. These communities are seen as the company's "best of the best." Honor Club communities participate on a corporate advisory committee which researches new technologies and quality improvement initiatives. Honor Club membership runs April to April each year. Only 15 percent of Americare's communities are Honor Club members.
"This award(s) is the result of a team effort," comments Carrington Place Administrator Michelle Gaborie. " It belongs to the entire staff. Each day we work hard to deliver person-centered care and to operate in a way that is true to Americare's philosophy. We're very proud to have been recognized for our efforts," she finishes.
Carrington Place is an licensed assisted living located at 1909 E 4th St Pittsburg, KS 66762.

In my hosptial births, an audiologist conducts a newborn hearing screen. I am a little baffled about how to accomplish this with a homebirth.
Our ped does a simple screen ever few years for the older kids and we got a poor reading with a follow up at the associated audiology practice. The audiologist that I spoke to (associated with a major teaching hospital) didn't know anyone in her field that did them outside of the hosptial staff. I am guessing that I can eventually find a referral to the hospital staff but that seems like a hassle.
How/who/when was your newborn screened for hearing?
My MW/ND gave us the referral and it was performed in an audiology practice thankfully by a kind woman that understood little ones. My son was 3 weeks old (if I remember right). I nursed him the whole time. He was not into it at all until I nursed him.

With DS it wasn't. When we asked our Ped about it, he said he could write a referral for us to get it done at his associated hospital, but it was just something we didn't get around to...
Carson, living life with my 3 boys: DH, DS Dec '09 and newbie DS Sept'12
always two in my
same thing here. I even called around several different places and no one got back to me at all. He's 4 now and hears just fine. :D
Wife, mom to 6 great kids!...avid crafter, music lover, reader, gardener!
i had my pedi write up a request, and i called in to the local hospital, and had it done when baby was a couple weeks old. i didn't do it at all w/ my first homebirth, but that was because the hospital gave me a LOT of flack. pedi didn't think it was that important.
I didn't with 2 of my home births, with one I got a referral to an audiology center. They had never done one before like this but the hospital did not do them on "outside" newborns.
I didnt with DD. i kept getting letters from the state saying it needed to be done. i called them and asked them what consequence there would be if i didnt get it done and they said there wouldnt be. they told me i could take the baby to the university free of charge if i wanted to.

I'm in Canada, so it seems as though it is different up here, but after my homebirth I had my dd2's hearing screened at my midwives office when she was I think 2 weeks old, at one of our regular visits. My midwife had a small handheld machine that had a small earpiece attached. She just had me hold my baby still and placed the earpiece in the left ear and tested, then the same for the right. I imagine most midwives in Ontario do it this way as they are regulated and paid for by the province.
This is interesting, since the hearing test is the one thing I really do want for this baby. I bet my ped will write an order for it if I ask, we plan to do both kids' appointments with the baby one to save time (the irony is that this time, I'll actually be following the OB's advice to stay home and relax AMAP, but it will be possible only because I'm doing HB!). I don't see how they could give me flak for it, considering we almost went home without the test for our first one and she was a CS (they were busy and had to squeeze her in).

We just went to an audiologist with a referral from DC's pediatrician. It was pretty silly, IMO but cheap, covered by insurance, and harmless for DC so we just did it.

We had it done at our midwife's office. I wasn't even aware that it was something that could be done out of hospital.

We begin with a drawing.
The subject is drawn (a tiger), then the child completes the picture using their own creative ideas and techniques (tall grass blowing in the wind)—they draw their world. See children's drawings.
Then, write...
We introduce letter formation and basic sentence structure, or focus on carefully practicing and developing handwriting skills. Our lessons are flexible; some use the drawing as a prompt to strengthen other language art skills: composition, creative writing, grammar and speech.
...while learning about the world.
The lessons in our books, Draw Write Now, Books 1-8, are grouped into themes (unit studies) which introduce history, science, social studies and geography. The themes are broad and appear simple, but are actually quite full and can spark an interest and further study.

Sundance trailer of the day: "Madrid, 1987" [video mildly NSFW]
Published December 19, 2011 8:28 am
This is an archived article that was published on sltrib.com in 2011, and information in the article may be outdated. It is provided only for personal research purposes and may not be reprinted.
In "Madrid, 1987," an aging journalist (José Sacristán) and a beautiful young student (MarÃa Valverde) form a relationship, most of which takes place in long conversations locked in a bathroom together.
I'm told this movie will be a surefire "love it or hate it" conversation starter.
(Warning: The trailer contains a fleeting glimpse of nudity.)
"Madrid, 1987" will screen in the World Cinema Dramatic competition at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival.

I met Krystallia through this workshop and by met, I mean, met online. We seem to like similar images,…I don't know what it was, but we became friends. Krys asked me to do a guest post on her blog 'My Cooking Secrets' , we started brainstorming about ideas, The time difference of eight hours did not come in our way, we were chatting till midnight. I asked her to tell me a little about herself, other than photography,…. "My favorite moto is ''DO NOT WASTE FOOD, there is always a way to CREATE a dish from scratch''. Seriously it was like my mom talking, I grew up on that….wasting food was unheard of and you eat what you get. I knew why we had become friends, we talked about a lot of things about Greek food, about real food, local foods and why we both started blogging, she said, "I didn' t set out to be a food photographer, let alone a blogger. I was previously an executive secretary and account assistant. When I got married and moved to Malta I focused on what I loved most. To create recipes, promote the Greek cuisine and inspire people to cook. My blog was the perfect way to combine my creative interests, yet it made me feel incredibly happy, so I ran with it." Two women thousands of miles apart, who have never seen each other ( Krys, better put up a profile picture on FB), yet had so much in common. At the end of the day we are all the same under the skin and we relate to similar emotions. Krys is so passionate about her food, it percolates to her blog. Her enthusiasm and passion is surely contagious. Thanks so much Krys for your friendship and all the energy you bring to the blogging world.
Krys had a few questions…over to her to read the informal chat.

Some footage from Lake Louise
Here is a short edit of snowboarding Lake Louise. Enjoy and Watch in HD. Let me know what you think ;p
toe side 4 lyf!
Nice vid! Makes me wish I got a GoPro with a pole rather than a ContourRoam.
Do you have any footage of tree runs? You should mix it up a little!
You should also try to get some different camera angles. Get a friend to film you sometimes :) Helmet cam gets boring fast so good choice using the GoPro pole.
Yeah I got a season edit still uploading I'll post it up when its done.
I'm sure he loves constructive feedback!
I had better not post any vids of me ;)
what was with the skier damn near taking you out at the 3:00 mark ??
Well not every video is a GoPro commercial bro. Lets see some of your videos?
I have to say that you look uncomfortable, that is not to say that i look any better though... Hehe
I learnt at the ripe of old age of 38 when i started, so i know what my issues are, i scare much easier than the youngsters learning...!!! I also take longer to learn...! My stepson now 8 started at 6, and will be passing me in his progress this winter, that is if he hasn't already...
And yes you can watch his vids for comparison on www.sneakysnowboarder.com ;)

His portrayal of brawny, less-than-brainy lothario Sam Malone in Cheers is woven into the fabric of our pop culture, however Ted Danson has proven throughout the decades that his range as an actor goes well beyond dumb and good-looking. Whether he stumbles along as a pot-addicted, party-seeking sidekick to Jason Schwartzman on Bored To Death or portrays a corrupt, money-bags CEO on Damages, he always manages to deliver a pitch-perfect performance.
Now that he's joined the cast of Everybody Loves Whales, his acting prowess will come in handy as a "win-at-all-costs-oilman who has no interest" in saving three trapped grey whales, based on true events that unfolded under Arctic Circle ice back in 1988. The flick, based on Tom Rose's book 'Freeing The Whales', will being filming in mid-September with Danson (one of Hollywood's most dedicated ocean conservation advocates) rubbing elbows with fellow greenie Drew Barrymore.
For those who aren't familiar with Danson's eco-cred, he's a founding member of Oceana — the international non-profit group focused on restoring the health and biodiversity to our oceans — and has spent a great deal of his free time championing diverse green causes, such as encouraging wind power and protesting offshore oil drilling. How ironic that his new gig has him filling the shoes of the very entity he works tirelessly to oppose!

Irving, Texas. March 6, 2013 –
The City of Irving has placed Heritage Crossing, a 20.64-acre tract of land along Delaware Creek, just north and south of Sixth Street on the market for redevelopment.
The City Council hopes private investors will submit design and development plans for the property that align with the city's vision for it, said Kevin Kass, the city's redevelopment and tax increment financing administrator. The city would like high-quality residential developments that fit into the historic 640-acre neighborhood bound by West Pioneer Drive, Britain Road, Shady Grove Road and MacArthur Boulevard.
"We know there are a number of investors interested in purchasing the properties to bring such development to Heritage Crossing," Kass said, in a written statement.
Those investors bidding on the property will need to show the city they have the ability to deliver the proposed developments in a timely fashion and provide a performance assurance in the form of a bond or letter of credit. The bids are subject to approval of the City Council and the city retains the right for final approval of the development plans.

This was Delhi's former imperial avenue, where the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan rode at the head of his lavish cavalcade. That scene is hard to picture today, as bullock carts, bicycles, shuttle buses (cars are technically banned), freight carts, cows, auto-rickshaws, horse-drawn tongas (two-wheeled carts), and pedestrians create a constant, breathtaking bazaar. It runs from the Red Fort into the walled city, functioning as a major, if congested, artery. As in the days of the Mughals, commerce is everywhere: astrologers set up their charts on the pavement; shoemakers squat and repair sandals; sidewalk photographers with old box cameras take pictures for a small fee; medicine booths conceal doctors attending to patients; and oversize teeth grin from the windows of dentists' offices. Peer through a portico, and you might see men getting shaved, silver being hammered into paper-thin edible sheets, or any other conceivable form of commerce. While the scenes may seem archaic, the shopping is
exactly where it's supposed to be so make sure you carry cash (safely tucked about your person). The stores in tinsel-filled Kinari Bazaar and Dariba Kalan, with its jewelry and gemstones, may make you want to empty your wallet. Also, lining just about every alley are the famous halwais, a group of sweets-makers. Everything from staples such as fried orange jalebis to even more exotic confections is sold. Vendors can be found Monday to Saturday from 9 am to 7 pm at Dariba Kalan.

Cloud computing has introduced a cost-effective alternative to building out secondary or even tertiary data centers as a means to improve application performance, assure application availability, and implement a strategic disaster-recovery plan. But when the hype is skimmed from cloud computing - private, public, or hybrid - what is left is a large, virtualized data center with IT control ranging from limited to non-existent.
This paper explores the benefits of cloud balancing, and highlights how organizations can leverage cloud application deployments in addition to local application deployments to optimize application delivery from technical and business standpoints.
Cloud balancing is still new, but the technology to add value is available today. The ability to distribute connections across the globe based upon an array of inputs such as geographic location, device type, the state of servers in one location or another, and balanced loads is real. A solution that is poised to take on new standards and enables use of existing standards, such as IPv6 and DNSSEC, should be the first stop for IT in the quest for agile data centers.
Read this paper to learn how the core capabilities of today's global and local application delivery solutions today make it possible to build a strong, flexible foundation that will enable organizations to meet current technical and business goals and to extend that foundation to include a more comprehensive cloud balancing strategy in the future.

LAS VEGAS (AP) - Players at the World Series of Poker have gone to hand-for-hand play as the bubble approaches for the money finishers.
Players needed 141 to be eliminated before they would reach the prize money in the no-limit Texas Hold 'em tournament on Saturday.
Tournament officials halted play and forced each table to play one hand at a time, waiting for the next hand until all tables had finished.
The top 10 percent of the field of 6,494 players - 648 players in all - were to win some piece of a $61 million prize pool.
Top prize in the tournament is $8.55 million, while 648th gets $21,365.
