These days, a man's place is definitely in the kitchen
But it wasn't always. If you came of age before the era of Emeril Lagasse, Bobby Flay and Mario Batali, you might be surprised to learn that, until comparatively recently, men were considered genetically and temperamentally unfit to cook.
That was certainly true when I was a little boy. Mom's place was in the kitchen. Dad's place was in front of the T.V., there to remain until Mom announced, "Dinner's ready." The only time dads were allowed to cook was in the backyard, over the barbecue.
I was reminded of all this when I bought a book in one of our great used bookstores in Oakland. "Cooks, Gluttons and Gourmets" was written by Betty Watson and published in 1962–well before the modern era of cooking began. Fifty one years ago, "cuisine" in America meant French food, snootily served in restaurants with heavy red leather banquettes. Italian meant lasagna, Chinese meant chop suey, Jewish meant corned beef, and that was that. It was the age of iceberg lettuce and frozen T.V. dinners. And nobody had ever heard of Julia Child.
In the 1960s that began to change, albeit quite slowly at first. "It was the popularity of outdoor barbecues that led most American husbands to take an interest in cookery," Watson writes. "While the kitchen had come to be regarded as woman's sphere from frontier days onward, cooking out of doors was different. It reminded grown men of Boy Scout days when they roasted hot dogs over campfires. [!!!] Building up a good fire in the charcoal grill was thoroughly masculine. So was the cooking of a steak."
We've come a long way, babycakes! Building a good fire always makes me feel more masculine.
Yet Watson, in her research for the book, was "astonish[ed]…to learn…that cooking in ancient Greece was regarded as an art and cooks were men of stature." For emphasis, she adds, "Men, yes–note that." Citing Athenaeus, a second century Greek writer, she refers to his masterwork, Deipnosophistae, in which he "mentions by name twenty authors of cookery books and not one by a woman."
(Incidentally, here's one of Athenaneus's recipes, for Gastris, a sweet nut cake:
Ingredients: 100g each of poppy seeds, ground walnuts, ground hazelnuts and ground almonds; 100g of dried and stoned dates and dried figs; 150g sesame seeds; 75g clear honey; 1/2 tsp ground black pepper; Olive Oil .
Chop the dates and figs then place in a pan with 30ml of the honey, 4 tbsp water and a little olive oil. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover and cook for about 10 minutes, or until the fruits are soft. Take off the heat and allow to cool, then turn into a mortar and pound in the ground poppy seeds, walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds and black pepper until your have a smooth, thick, dough-like paste. Turn into a pan and cook until the dough is thick and of a consistency that can be rolled out. Roll out the fruit and nut paste and cut into squares. Heat the remaining honey in a pan, dip the fruit and nut paste in this then coat in the sesame seeds.)
Men were the chefs to royalty for most of history, and even royalty took a turn in the kitchen. Peter the Great "would often go into the kitchens to knead bread dough with his own hands or pour cheese into molds," Watson writes. Thomas Jefferson was as interested in food and cooking as he was in wine. Watson tells us he introduced spaghetti into the Americas, was "the first to serve French fries with beefsteak" (and we can imagine that at one time French fries were considered special), "the first to use vanilla as a flavoring," and "learned to make ice cream while in France, writing down the recipe in his own hand…He imported olive trees" and grew "many rare vegetables such as broccoli and asparagus." Once in the White House, he "personally supervised the planning of state dinners." Can you imagine a modern U.S. President being a foodie? He'd be mercilessly mocked, especially by Fox News.
When did men drop out of the kitchen? It seems to have been a by-product of the Industrial Age and of the rise of American capitalism. The man was expected to leave the home early in the morning, work all day, and come home, late and hungry. The little woman was expected to remain barefoot and in the kitchen, and have dinner ready for her man. (See almost any episode of "Mad Men" with Betty Draper in it.) This model remained the dominant one throughout the first half, even the first two-thirds of the twentieth century.
By the 1980s, it definitely had changed. Why? Historians of American culture will have the last word on that. Certainly the re-entry of the man into the kitchen paralleled the rise of the boutique winery movement in California. I can't prove it, but I suspect the two were related.
Wine writer? Historian? Blogger? All the above–and more
When Merry Edwards asked me to introduce her at her induction Feb. 18 for the Vintners Hall of Fame, my first question was "Why me?" I was obviously honored, but really had no idea why Merry selected yours truly.
Her reply: "Because you're an historian."
Well, my reaction was, "I'm a wine critic." I didn't say that, but the thought instantly rose in my head. Somehow, Merry calling me "an historian" seemed to cast my role as a wine critic into a secondary light. And I take being a wine critic very seriously: rating and reviewing wine is the essence of what I do for a living.
But the more I thought about it, the more I realized how silly that thought was. After all, Merry knows me, not just as someone who reviews her wines, but as the author of A Wine Journey along the Russian River and New Classic Winemakers of California, in which she has her own chapter. So to Merry, I'm as much an historian as I am a critic.
And then it occurred to me: Why do we pigeonhole ourselves into categories anyway? Critic–historian–writer–journalist–blogger–these are all part and parcel of what I do. They're just words for the totality of my love for, and interest in, wine and writing.
Actually, in terms of which came first, Merry's right: I was an historian of wine well before I was a wine critic. I mean, in the sense that I'd made reading about the history of wine a consuming interest in my life by the late 1970s, ten years before I was ever paid to write about wine. I'm glad that, by the time I took wine writing on as a career, I'd built up a very extensive knowledge of wine history through the reading of books. That gave me a basis later on for making qualitative judgments about wine. I was able to understand that wine is (among other things) a hierarchy. There is nothing fundamentally democratic about wine, other than the fact that anyone can drink it. (Thank goodness.) Wine always has been about elitism: if you were wealthy you could afford to drink better wine than a poor man, because it costs money to produce a quality wine. It did when the Caesars had their favorites (which presumably few others could buy), and it still does. In fact, the history of Western civilization can largely be told through the spread of wine from its ancestral homeland somewhere in the Caucasus up the river valleys of Europe and, thence, to the New World.
It frightens me to think that there probably are wine "critics" out there right now–blogging away–who don't possess a single good book on wine. Worse yet: it frightens me that there are wine writers whose chief resource is Google. I can't imagine anything more contrary to the spirit of wine to have someone send you a sample of, say, a Muscadet, and then Google it in order to know what you're drinking. This isn't because there's anything fundamentally wrong with a quick Internet search. I use Google all the time. But I use my library more. Why is a real library "better" (in every sense I can think of) than Google? Because I have inhaled my wine books until their information informs my DNA like genetic code. The patient acquisition of detailed knowledge, lovingly and painstakingly assembled over many years, can't possibly be compared to a quick Google search. That is an insult to all great wine writers, living or dead.
And so I gratefully acceded to Merry's request. To put her contributions in wine into historical perspective (and let us hope Merry's career extends as far forward into the future as it does into the past), one must know the history, not only of California wine, but of world wine in general. One must understand, also, how Merry sees her own place in history (which is the purpose of the pre-interview). The history of wine involves elements from almost every aspect of human study, from anthropology to chemistry to religion to gender studies. It's so much more than "Here's what I think."
Closure of Masa's raises questions about cult wines
Grub Street, the San Francisco food blog, is reporting that "Masa's, the fine dining staple opened by chef Masataka Kobayashi in 1983, is closing after 30 years."
Masa's is, of course, the Michelin-starred, legendarily expensive ($154 five-course wine-and-food tasting menu) restaurant, north of Union Square, that's lured in generations of foodies. For sheer luxe, it's had few rivals.
Founder Masataka worked at Auberge du Soleil before launching his eponymous restaurant. He was found murdered in 1984, a crime that has never been solved; subsequent chefs have been a who's who of culinary superstardom (Julian Serrano, Ron Siegel, Gregory Short). Masa's wine list was as celebrated as its food.
Why is Masa's closing? Grub Street blames it on "formal, tablecloth'd fine dining [that] has gone out of fashion." The San Francisco Chronicle's "Inside Scoop" food columnist, Paolo Lucchesi, reports that the building's owner "wants to install a more casual restaurant in the space."
In San Francisco, many high-end restaurants have shuttered their doors over the years: Trader Vic's, Stars, Charles Nob Hill, The Dining Room at the Ritz-Carlton among others. All were hit by changes in taste that made them victims in the highly-competitive restaurant world, which depends on fickle customers always looking for the next hot spot. In the case of Masa's, the Great Recession provided the coup de grace that finally put Masa's out of its misery.
In fact, the continuing effects of the Recession are hurting restaurants nationwide. On Friday, Nation's Restaurant News reported, via Lewis Perdue's News Fetch, that "Restaurant operators [are] downbeat as sales, traffic soften." Of course, this doesn't mean that high-end restaurants are on the verge of extinction. For every Masa's that closes, a replacement opens: Hakkasan, The Sea by Alexander's Steakhouse, Katsu. Local reviewers go wild, and those able and willing to afford them flock to their doors.
Yet you have to wonder, how long will they last? Ten years? Fifteen? Or, like Masa's, thirty? These numbers seem highly unlikely; a restaurant's life span is getting shorter, not longer.
Which brings us to the subject of cult wines.
I would imagine that the proprietors of cult wines, especially Napa Valley Cabs, like to think their brands will be around for a long time. After all, Lafite is still here after, what? 700 years? ("the estate was the property of Gombaud de Lafite in 1234" – Alexis Lichine)
But many a Napa cult winery is no longer as culty as it once was. We must assume that some of the famous names in Napa were hit hard during the Recession, and that it was only the owners' deep pockets that enabled them to hang on. Their hope was that, with recovery would come improved sales, at traditional prices.
Yet are these expensive cults not the wine equivalents of Masa's, "formal, tablecloth'd" wines that just may be out of step with today's more casual approach? People, especially younger ones, are looking for things other than show-offy wines: they want wines of interest, of deliciousness, from all over the world, wines that are different and unique and that tell a story and are easy to drink with food. Above all, they want wines that are affordable. I believe that the weltanschauung of wine has shifted irrevocably, due not only to the Recession but to changes in America's demographics. We are rapidly becoming poorer and less white, changes that cannot bode well for super-expensive wines. In a sense—and I don't mean to get political here, but it's just the truth—some of these cult wines are like the Republican Party, out of step with the mainstream of where America is going. That's why they lost so badly in the 2012 elections, and that's why cult wines may be endangered in the next ten or twenty years.
Some will survive and even prosper. Brands as powerful and embedded as Screaming Eagle and Harlan Estate likely are the Lafites of Napa Valley, and will be with us for a very long time (assuming their family ownership wishes to continue them). But I have to tell you, there are a lot of Masa's in Napa Valley—wines that were hugely popular in their day, but are now increasingly anachronistic.
Playing "what if?" with California wine regions
It's really an accident of history that we here in the U.S. and in California decided to name wines by grape variety rather than by region.
We have Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Chardonnay, Petite Sirah, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc, Syrah and so on. In Europe, of course, it's a different story. There (for the most part) they named wines after the regions they came from: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Sancerre, Champagne, Chianti, Barolo, Rheingau, Ribero del Duero, etc.
The reasons why California went the varietal route as opposed to the regional route are many and complex. It made sense to men like Frank Schoonmaker, in the 1930s, following the Repeal of Prohibition, to get away from the false and misleading names of California wines like "Claret," "Burgundy", "Port" and "California Champagne", and take a more honest varietal approach. Their hearts and minds were in the right place: simple, candid truth-telling on the label.
Unfortunately, it seems not to have occurred to them to name California wines after their regions. Think how everything would be so different if we'd chosen names like Oakville, or Glen Ellen [the town, not the wine brand], or Salinas Valley, or Geyserville, or Los Olivos, or Oakley, or Edna Valley.
If that had happened, we might have developed a regional-varietal family coordination like they had in Europe. Instead of having Cabernet Sauvignons, Syrahs, Petite Sirahs, Chardonnays, Sauvignon Blancs, Tempranillos, etc. with an Oakley appellation, the pioneers of post-Prohibition viticulture and enology might have figured out that a red blend based on 2, 3 or 4 varieties worked best for their climate and soils. You'd be able to say "Oakley Red Wine" and know exactly what that meant, same as "Pauillac" means a Cabernet Sauvignon blend. As things now stand, however, "Oakley Red Wine" could be anything.
Red blends have become quite the thing lately, with more and more wineries mixing varieties willy-nilly. Some of them aren't very good, and I get the feeling the wineries do it because they had the grapes or bulk wine available and couldn't think of anything better to do except to stick them in a big tank and call the resulting wine some wacko name. Marketing departments also get involved, perhaps advising their employers that problems with existing varietals suggest staying out of that game. For example, the market's already crowded with Cabernet. Syrah doesn't sell. Nobody wants Zinfandel anymore. No one's ever heard of Tempranillo. And we can't call lit Moscato because it's not. And so on and so forth.
However, there are some really wonderful blends out there. To mention a few, Seghesio San Lorenzo Estate, which is Zinfandel and Petite Sirah; Krupp 2009 The Doctor (Tempranillo, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Cab Franc); Chateau Potelle 2009 Explorer The Illegitimate (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Zinfandel and Syrah), Shafer 2009 Relentless (Syrah, Petite Sirah).
Is it good or not so good that California went down the varietal path instead of the regional one? Hard to say. The government developed a system of American Viticultural Areas that kinda sorta looked to the French appellation system as a model, but differs from it in that the Tax and Trade Bureau doesn't have any quality standards for an AVA. So really, an appellation doesn't mean very much. Still, it's fun to play "What if?" And there's this, too: some of our better appellations have become so varietal- or varietal family-specific that they're practically synonomous. Say "Napa Valley red wine" and most people will think of Cabernet or a Bordeaux blend. Say "Santa Rita Hills red wine" and most people will think of Pinot Noir. Say "Amador County red wine" and most people will think of Zinfandel. So, in a way, despite the fluctuations and randomness of human decision making, grape variety and region find each other in a most serendipitous way.
Where's Napa Valley's next Great Leap Forward in the 21st century?
I am, as many of you know, something of a student of the history of wine, and of California wine in particular. I've always had a hankering for history–any era, any country–although I do have my favorites: World War II is one (I have almost as many books on that as I do on wine), and I also enjoy the history of science, especially of modern physics. But my wine education began with a study of California's wine history, and it's still going on. That's the thing about history: it keeps on happening.
I'm mindful of this, because I've been thinking about how Francis Ford Coppola is engaged in restoring the historic Inglenook name, which really had been dreadfully mauled over the years, since it passed from the hands of the great John Daniel, Jr. to a series of corporate owners, including United Vintners, Heublein, Constellation and The Wine Group. No disrespect to any of those fine companies, but that's a pretty sad track record for a winery that had been as great as Inglenook, which was founded in 1879 and therefore has a legacy as important as any winery in California.
When I first started learning about wine, Inglenook already was in its dog days. It was mainly known for the Inglenook Navalle bottling, which hardly was great wine. Those of us who knew history appreciated and respected Inglenook for what it had been, not what it was. We hoped that, someday, the glory that was Inglenook would be restored. But that seemed impossible. Even after Francis Ford Coppola successfully repatched together the original Inglenook estate vineyard, in Rutherford, with a series of purchases, the name "Inglenook" seemed deader than a doorknob. Coppola named his brand Rubicon, not Inglenook, because he didn't own the rights.
That's now changed, and is why it was so exciting to hear that Coppola had bought back the Inglenook name (from The Wine Group) and plans on resurrecting it for the wines that had been Rubicon Estate.
Inglenook was one of the Big Four that kept the reputation of Napa Valley for Cabernet Sauvignon going, post-Prohibition. The others were Louis M. Martini (now owned by Gallo), Beaulieu (Diageo) and Charles Krug, which thankfully remains in the hands of the Peter Mondavi, Sr. family. Each of these wineries is doing fine, although concerning Martini, I think the jury's still out on precisely where the Gallos aim to take it. Beaulieu has been left marvelously intact by Diageo, who understands the truth of the old adage, If it ain't broken, don't fix it, and Charles Krug remains an outstanding exemplar of how good Napa wine can be at relatively affordable prices. Still, I think it's fair to say that none of those three wineries has aspired to be the very best in Napa Valley.
Which leaves Rubicon/Inglenook. Can Coppola push it back to the top? I, personally, have always thought a great deal of Rubicon, the Bordeaux blend that was the Rubicon winery's flagship wine. The old estate vineyard, west of Highway 29 on the Rutherford Bench, is one of the glories of Napa Valley, just beautifully situated. I've always given very high scores to Rubicon (culminating in 95 points for the 2008, which I reviewed last October), and I've also always enjoyed the Cask Cabernet Sauvignon, which is consciously modeled after Daniels' Cabs, made during Inglenook's glory days in the 1930s, '40s and '50s. That Cask Cabernet, for my money, is pretty much right up there with Rubicon, although it's a different kind of wine, more closed in youth and, overall, more elegant. But it's also $100 less.
When I think back over Napa Valley's amazing history, I'm grateful to those who came later, but advanced the cause. Robert Mondavi clearly stands out, head and shoulders above anyone else in the second half of the twentieth century, with the possible exception of André Tchelistcheff. But we don't have to choose between them. I also give great credit to Bill Harlan. He came along at a point when pretty much everybody thought Napa Cabernet was as good as it can get, and then he made it better. Without Bill, I wonder if there would be Screaming Eagle, Araujo, Staglin, Hundred Acre, Colgin and all the rest of what we nowadays consider "cult wineries." Bill Harlan showed that Napa could reinvent itself, even when nobody thought it needed reinventing.
Sodden thought: I wonder what Napa's next reinvention will be, and who will lead it?
Bring back the Greek Symposium!
My friend Ryan Flinn, who is Bloomberg News' San Francsco correspondent, alerted me to this article describing research done by a professor on "wine drinking cups over a 500-year period in ancient Athens" and how "[c]hanges in cup form and design point to political, social and economic shifts." It's a fascinating bit of original research, part of what seems to be new interest on the part of scholars in the culture of wine (think of that exhibit at San Francisco MOMA on How Wine Became Modern).
In the study of wine drinking cups (they weren't called wine "glasses" because most of them were made of clay or metal), the professor, Kathleen Lynch, focused especially on the Symposium. Lovers of the classics will recognize the Symposium as the name of one of Plato's philosophical books, but the word "Symposium" referred to a specific Greek practice that lasted "nearly a millennia": an all-male drinking party.
In Plato's Symposium, the men, who included Socrates, were required to drink (no teetotalers, please), and each in turn had to deliver a speech, in this case, in praise of love. The format seems not to have changed much over the centuries, but the kinds of wine cups the men employed did; and from an examination of them, Lynch is able to make inferences about shifts in the culture of "the ancient world's ultimate cocktail parties, with established rituals and rules."
The Symposium changed over time. At first, "The drinking gatherings (symposia) were reserved for the elite," but over time, "the democratization of the political and social arenas" led to "the democratization of the symposium." Didn't the same thing happen in more modern times? In the 18th, 19th and for most of the 20th century, fine wine was reserved for a thin upper crust that ruled society. By the end of the 20th century, the love of wine had permeated the middle classes, with the result that the America of 2011 can be described as a wine-drinking nation. But by the time of Alexander the Great, in the period that represented the end of classical Greek culture, "the [Symposium] practice was again the prerogative of the elites as a luxury and display of ostentatious consumption." Interesting…
(Another feature of Greek drinking habits was that, as time went forward, "The overall number of wine-drinking vessels increased dramatically." Think Riedel.)
Lynch, in her study, didn't deal with one of my favorite parts of the ancient Greek Symposium: the game called Kottabos. Hugh Johnson describes it in Vintage: The Story of Wine. Symposium participants–suitably inebriated, one assumes–would throw the dregs from their wine cups, from some distance away, at "a special stand…with a tiny statuette on top with its arm held aloft. On the hand, precariously balanced, went a faintly concave bronze disc. Halfway up the stand [was] fixed a much larger bronze disc. The idea…was to dislodge the top disc [with the dregs], so that it fell and hit the lower one…which when hit rang like a bell…Kottabos became the rage," Mr. Johnson writes, "for no less than 300 years…".
I'm trying to find our modern day equivalent of the Symposium and having some problems. It's not at all like the big wine and food dinners a lot of us get invited to, like at the World of Pinot Noir, or the Wine Bloggers or Wine Writers conventions, or meet the winemaker dinners at great restaurants, or the big, fancy auctions that end in a fabulous meal. Those are formal affairs; guests typically don't know each other, and much energy is spent just breaking the ice. At these things, because people aren't really friends, but simply find themselves at the same place together, there's a tendency to keep the subject matter light and, one might say, irrelevant. That's completely in contrast to the spirit of the Symposium, which was deep personal conversation.
We also gather to drink wine at family occasions, such as Thanksgiving and Christmas, and while we all do know each other–oftentimes too well–these are hardly occasions for philosophical deliberation and relaxation. (The stress of these big family get-togethers is a staple of TV and radio psychology talk shows during the holiday season.)
In a way, the Symposium reminds me of the classical literary salon, defined here, at Wikipedia, as "a gathering of people under the roof of an inspiring host, held partly to amuse one another and partly to refine the taste and increase their [sic] knowledge of the participants through conversation." I always wanted to have a salon. In my fantasy, I live in a big house with a garden and terrace overlooking San Francisco Bay (I was in Gordon Getty's mansion a couple times and that's what I have in mind). My salon guests are stimulating, outgoing, thoughtful, intelligent, successful at their careers and amusing; among them would be a few chosen for their beauty. (Needless to say, the "men only" rule would be dispensed with!) I'd have the heat on if it was cold, so nobody had to overdress. We would relax on couches, and I–as host–would define the topic. "Tonight, ladies and gentlemen, we are going to discourse on–" it could be anything. I'd have dainty little plates of tapas to munch, and only the greatest wines would be served (not by slaves, as was often the case in Greece). Around midnight, things would start getting interesting. We might even play Kottabos!

Do you ever tell strangers about deals they are missing out on?
Just today, I noticed several people buying stuff that was cheaper elsewhere. It's the "coupon radar" in me, I guess. I kind of felt like telling them, "Psst...that iced tea is on sale elsewhere," or "Hey, this is Walmart, you can price match those tomatoes," etc.
I know some people don't mind spending a little (or a lot) to avoid going to other stores. But I also know that a lot of people don't know that they can get better deals elsewhere.
For the most part, I keep quiet. One time, my mom met a lady over grapes at Walmart. The lady had no clue that Walmart price matched and she could get the grapes for $1/pound instead of $3. My mom explained to her how to do it and pointed out a few other deals in the produce department. The lady was thrilled to find it out!
How about you?

Game lodge / Guest house - River Camp - 4 Tents and Forest Camp - 8 Tents
The adventure starts with the 30 minute river transfer from reception to the lodge. Have your camera on the ready! The tents nestle in the bush, and I love the total silence at night! Excellent game viewing – I usually see most of the Big 5. Boma dinner in the evenings tops off a most memorable day.

NBC has signed a new production deal with prolific producer Dick Wolf, ensuring an 18th season of "Law & Order: SVU" and the continuation of his Chicago trilogy of dramas.
The deal, announced Monday, binds Wolf with NBC Universal through 2020, by which time he will likely have even more programs on the network's schedule.
Wolf had seemed close to the end of his run at NBC at the outset of this decade, with the long-running "Law & Order" franchise down to the one show. But he's come roaring back with his signature cut-from-the-headlines procedural dramas, this time focusing on Chicago.
The deal promises a second season of the newest drama,...

Everyone needs to be able to have dental care. However, some people need special facilities or services to have this care provided. People with physical disabilities may have problems getting into the surgery or even into the dental chair. People with learning disabilities may become overanxious at the thought of going to the dentist or may need extra reassurance. People suffering from severe medical problems may need extra precautions or care. Dental teams are able to take account of all these things when providing dental care.
Many dentists will happily treat people with special dental needs in their surgery. However, some people find it hard to get to the surgery and so other arrangements may be made by the practice: for example, home visits and special health centres. Some people need a specialist service. Some hospitals or health centres will also help people needing specialist care and may be able to offer possible treatment alternatives, such as sedation or general anaesthetic.
Usually the patient's dentist or doctor is responsible for referring them to the clinic best suited to their needs. Normally, the dentist or doctor will write a referral letter and send it, with any hospital letters and x-rays, to give the dental team an idea of the patient's dental history.
The dental team will need to know the patient's medical history and about any medicines they are taking. This includes any inhalers and regularly prescribed medicines from the doctor. The dental team will also need to know the name of the family doctor and hospital consultant, and about any recent operations and allergies the patient may have.
It is also helpful if the dental team know about any concerns or anxieties the patient has, so that they can help to make the patient feel at ease. This information can be given by the patient's parents or care giver. However, some patients do prefer to communicate directly with the dentist. Some patients may have other special needs: for example, the help of an interpreter or translator, or to have a guide dog. Dentists are prepared for working in these situations.
Some patients prefer to be seen at certain times of the day depending on their needs. For instance, evening appointments may not be suitable for patients who tire easily or may spend the day worrying. Some patients rely heavily on routine and may need regular appointments at the same time.
Practices should offer facilities for wheelchair users, including access to the practice, and ground-floor surgeries. If wheelchair access is particularly important, contact the surgery and ask if this is something they are prepared for. Some clinics have specially adapted surgeries for patients with mobility problems.
Children with learning disabilities or other medical conditions may be referred to a specialist dental service by their doctor or dental team. It is important to take children to see the dentist at an early age. A low-sugar diet is also important, as they may be more likely to have tooth decay due to having problems with brushing and through taking medication. Make sure they have fizzy drinks, and sugary foods and drinks, just at mealtimes, and in moderation.
Many patients with disabilities have to rely on medication to keep their condition under control. It is therefore important to ask the doctor to prescribe sugar-free medicines, especially if they are syrups.
It is important to tell the dental team about any medication that the patient is taking, in case the treatment is affected or the team need to take any extra precautions.
For some people, moving their arms or hands can be a problem, which makes effective cleaning difficult. It is important to reach all the areas of the mouth to clean effectively. A toothbrush with a small to medium head size with soft to medium bristles is usually recommended. There are special handgrips and other adaptations which can be fitted to manual toothbrushes to make them easier to hold.
In some cases, electric or 'power' toothbrushes are recommended for people with mobility problems. They are also helpful to people with learning difficulties as they can be a novelty and therefore encourage brushing. The dentist or dental team will be able to offer advice and practical help on brushing and general mouth care.
Intravenous sedation (an injection) is an effective way of treating most nervous patients. The drugs given can relax and calm the patient, so treatment can be carried out with the dental team and patient still able to talk to each other. There are certain things that affect a patient's suitability for this type of sedation. These include weight, age and medical condition. This would all be discussed during the consultation. Sometimes the patient would need to be referred to a specialist clinic for this treatment.
Relative Analgesia (RA) can also help patients get through their treatment more easily. Here, nitrous oxide and oxygen are breathed in through a nosepiece. It is the safest and simplest form of sedation and is often the one most suitable for both children and people with special needs. However, this is not appropriate for everyone - especially people with limited understanding, cerebral palsy or multiple sclerosis.
In some cases the dental team prefer to use other ways of calming the patient. These can include simply talking, visiting the practice to meet staff, or even hypnosis. These can all be effective in making the patient less anxious.
It is important to visit the dental team regularly. This would normally be every six months, but some people need to visit less often and others more often. The dental team will be able to tell you.
The dentist may also recommend appointments with a dental hygienist, who will remove plaque and tartar from the teeth and offer advice on how to brush effectively and keep your mouth clean and healthy. The dental team may also offer advice to care givers about the dental care of others. It is very important to build a relationship between the dental team, the patient and their care giver. This can help greatly with people who have severe learning difficulties. Short but regular appointments seem to work better at building trust between the patient and the dental team than long appointments at irregular intervals.

Ratings for Anderson Area Medical Center
Only place in town. All care in the area seems to flow through here. I was disappointed in my experience as a patient and grateful to check out a day early. Hope I never have to go back.
Submitted Feb. 1, 2015 | flag
This hospital leave everyone in the area to their mercy. It is the worse hospital in the state. Nurses are rude and under qualified, most are right out of Tri County Tech. The doctors act like they are doing you a favor by taking care of you. My husband was terribly ill, I had no choice but to take him to Emory in Atlanta and then to the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville in order to get him healthy. If I left his care to AnMed he would have died to their negligence. I would not even take a stray dog there for care...

I had probably the best lesson I ever had today and it was all spent on cantering. Over and over and over. I loved it and my horse was great. I was always able to easily ask for the canter and the response was immediate, so my beginning transition was just short of excellent while my ending transition was just short of good. My horse would go into a very fast counter in the straight stretches and I would have a tendency to use the reins first, before I tried any other method. It was just an automatic reaction to pull back on the reins. My instructor advised me to lean back and soften the reins as I held them on her. She said if I needed a small pull, I could just shift my hands back to give a subtle tug. I also found when the counter became accelerated I could usually reach out and pat her neck to get her to begin to slow.
Any advice ? I confess that I really love the fast counter, but know I need to keep a consistent speed.
Thanks !

It is the defense attorney' job to ascertain his client's chances of conviction or acquittal and to then to plan on how to present the case to the court. Find out how a Hamilton defense attorney can help you! See the Butler County Bar for more info.
Another role of a defense attorney is to know how to handle pleas. It is the defense attorney's job to find out if accepting a deal will help his client. This is based on the investigation that he or she has already done. In addition, the defense attorney may also interact with the prosecutor to get an even better, more advantageous deal. Trying the case, is another important role of a defense attorney. To be clear, to accept or go to trial, rests on the person who is accused of a crime. The role of the defense attorney is to advise him or her on which option would be the best; however, the choice is up to the defendant. Talk with a Hamilton defense attorney today!

Used Steganos Locknote for 5 years+ and carry it around on little USB. Surprising so few downloads. Thanks @sourceforge, another winner.
I been using Steganos LockNote on a daily basis for a couple years and it never failed to save. However, I seldom I forget to save some minor changes. Hence, it would be great if it had some auto-save&close feature. This would save may changes and prevent access when I forget to close it. Still, I love it because is simple and pratical enough. Thanks Steganos!
Locknote has a clean simple design. I would be very useful if not for a fatal bug where it occasionally fails to save changes. There is no error message or any other indication that it has failed. I have had it working perfectly for a long period of time and, for no reason, suddenly stops updating changes. If I use "save as" to create a new file, it will continue to work but will eventually fail again for no apparent reason.
I have never had locknote not save data. Doesn't mean it can't happen but I use it often and have not experienced it.
Be careful - LockNote silently fails to save data. You can tell by watching the Modified timestamp ... when it fails it doesn't change. I lost critical banking login details. I am using KeePass now, which isn't great for handling text but at least it is reliable.
