Sedation Dentistry
As many as 79 percent of people in America suffer from fear and anxiety about visiting the dentist – and many of them don't obtain vital dental care because of that. Dr. Todd Mabry and Dr. Anna Vaysman, our board-certified dentists in Scottsdale, fully understand the nervousness people feel at the prospect of dental work. That's why we offer sedation dentistry options here at our practice. Sedation (sleep) dentistry can make your experience with us as pain-free as possible. We offer non-invasive oral sedation techniques to help you feel relaxed and comfortable during your treatment. In fact, you may not even realize the procedure was performed until it is complete!
Oral Conscious Sedation
Conscious sedation is a way for you to experience virtually painless dental treatment without being totally unconscious during the procedure. There are no I-V anesthetics involved – you will be given medication before your treatment that will put you in a very relaxed state. Oral conscious sedation makes it possible for you to avoid feeling discomfort or pressure during the procedure; however, you will be able to communicate with our doctors and their assistants. Sedation dentistry can help if you are:
- Anxious about needles, dental treatments, and dentists in general
- Affected by sensitive teeth and gums
- Uncomfortable hearing the sounds of dental instruments
- Uncomfortable with the tastes associated with dental procedures
- Anxious about dental conditions that may require long treatment processes
What to Expect from Sedation
Before your procedure, you will take medication that will ultimately give you a feeling of deep relaxation. Once your procedure begins, you should not feel a thing. You will not be unconscious, and you will be able to talk; however, you will be so relaxed that you may not even remember the procedure has taken place once it's finished.
It can take several hours for the effects of conscious sedation to completely wear off. So it is important to arrange for someone to take you to and from our practice for treatment, as you will be too drowsy to drive.
For both the health of your teeth and gums and the appearance of your smile, regular trips to the dentist are extremely important. It's very common and very understandable to have some "dental anxiety," but with sedation dentistry, our doctors can help to alleviate your fear of the dentist and provide you with effective treatment and a more pleasant experience.

text: "Show me a hero, and I'll show you a bum." So said 'Pappy' Boyington, famed commander of the renowned Flying Tigers of World War II, at the end of his biography. Perhaps, less cynically, the appellation could be, "Show me a hero and I'll show you a person who is human and not perfect." People are not born heroes but those who rise above themselves at times of great stress and danger become heroes. And along the way they bring their flaws.

NEW YORK - U.S. home prices fell nationwide in August for the eighth consecutive month, offering little hope of a turnaround anytime soon, according to the S & P/Case-Shiller index released Tuesday.
Things could get worse, said Yale economist Robert Shiller, who helped create the index.
"There is really no positive news in today's report," said Shiller, chief economist for MacroMarkets LLC, which collaborates with S & P on the indicator. "At both the national and metro area levels, the fall in home prices is showing no real signs of a slowdown or turnaround."
Home prices as measured by the index have fallen by more every month since the beginning of the year. August is the 21st month of decelerating returns.
An index of 10 U.S. metropolitan areas fell 5 percent in August from a year ago. That was the biggest drop since June 1991. The lowest ever was a decline of 6.3 percent in April 1991.
A broader index of 20 metropolitan areas fell 4.4 percent in August over last year, with 15 of 20 of them reporting that prices fell.
Housing prices have been a key worry for consumers, and the effect of the slowdown alongside the summer's steep decline in credit availability, has many worried that the economy will go into recession.
Many economists expect the Federal Reserve will cut rates again at the end of a two-day meeting today, after a bigger-than-expected half-point cut last month.

Loss of Father Joe?will be felt forever
In the tragic passing of Father Joe Moreno, Western New York has truly lost one of its nicest people. The hundreds of people who attended his wake and funeral are a testament to what a kind and loving man he was. He did so much for so many people.
For us at St. Lawrence, he was a Godsend. After surviving our last pastor asking for and being relieved of his duties there and church consolidations, we stayed open under the devoted leadership of Deacon Paul and Mary, his wife. They asked for Father Joe to help and he became ours.
Father Joe never �preached.� His sermons were always stories about helping and loving. He made you feel comfortable because he led by example. You couldn�t help but get involved in one of his projects.
At St. Lawrence, the loss of Father Joe will be felt forever. He meant so much and did so much for us. We are a small church, but operate many ministries (clinic for kids, St. Vincent de Paul, food pantry). Father Joe, with many dedicated volunteers, made it possible for so many people to get help. In tribute, we have named our food pantry after him. I ask that all of his friends remember us and pray for us. Because of Father Joe and you, our pantry serves 450 people a month. With Thanksgiving and Christmas coming, this is the time when Father Joe was at his best.
I don�t think it matters why, but questions remain. Why would �downtown� take Father Joe away from us (and St. Mary�s), away from all that he loved and who loved him? At St. Lawrence he was minutes from anywhere. To have everything taken away from him, and told to go wait for assignment, was just plain wrong. The bishop and his �spin doctor� can say what they want. Having to leave us hurt Father Joe very much. He needed us, maybe as much as we needed him.

Speaking to US magazine GameInformer, Carmack said of an idea to bring Doom 3 to the PlayStation 3: "One idea we've been sort of tossing around that is just a random idea is possibly doing some kind of super edition of the Doom 3 stuff for the PS3."
Carmack didn't exactly give any details as to what a "Super Edition" of the game would entail, but we assume he means something more than bundling the game with a bonus DVD of behind the scenes footage. Despite these comments, Carmack told the magazine that he prefers developing on the Xbox 360, much like Tomonobu Itagaki, head of Team Ninja has said.

This week we look at two shows about heroes: JFK: A One-Man Show on PBS and Sakharov on HBO. One hero died 20 years ago, and the other has been dueling with death for weeks. A generation's time separates these men, and that makes a difference in how we look at them. Through these two shows, you can see that vast difference; you can see what history does to the memories of men. Each show is worth watching on its own, but together they bring an added lesson. (And together is how you'll have to watch them, since both air on the same night.)

Editor's note: This part of a continuing, fictional holiday tale that is running daily through Christmas. Parents are encouraged to read along with their children.
It was Christmas Eve. Normally, John Hanson Elementary School would be closed for the holiday break, but since the adults still didn't remember that Christmas existed, all the children had to go to school anyway.
At recess, Phoebe, Brenna, Cate and Cienna gathered at their usual spot on the playground with Tuffy the elf tagging along.
"This may be the last Christmas we ever have," Brenna said gloomily.
"If it is, at least we're celebrating it together," Cienna said.
"I made you guys something," Phoebe said, passing out little packages with her homemade gifts.
"I did, too," Cate said. Brenna and Cienna also had gifts for their friends.
The girls opened their packages and oohed and ahhed over their gifts and exchanged "thank-yous" and hugs.
"If we never have Christmas again, what will you miss the most?" Tuffy asked.
The children were silent for a moment before Phoebe spoke.
"At first, I thought it was just the presents I'd miss," she said. "But that's not what Christmas is really about, is it? It's not the songs or the cookies or the tree, it's how everyone is nicer. We visit with our families and friends and neighbors, and we help people who don't have enough money for food or toys. It's about treating everybody the way we would want to be treated."
Cienna, Cate and Brenna nodded in agreement.
Tuffy looked thoughtful. "I think Santa was right about you," he said. "Well, I'd best be off."
"Where are you going?" Cate asked.
"Back to the North Pole," Tuffy said. "If there's going to be a Christmas tomorrow, Santa will need me. And if not I think I'd rather be with my friends, too."
"Thank you for coming to help us," Phoebe said, hugging the elf.
"Tell Santa we tried our best," Cienna said.
"I don't think you'll need me to tell Santa that for you," Tuffy said mysteriously, and disappeared, just like he'd appeared several days earlier, with a pop.
"That's it, I suppose," Brenna said as they stared for a moment at the spot where Tuffy had been.
"Oh, I hope it was enough!" Phoebe sighed.
That night, as Phoebe got ready for bed, she thought how strange it was that it was Christmas Eve and she didn't have those excited butterflies in her stomach that she usually did. Her mother and father wouldn't read her "'Twas the Night Before Christmas" like they always did, and there were no cookies and milk left out for Santa.
Instead, Phoebe went to bed with a feeling of dread. Would she wake up the next morning and find that they had skipped over Dec. 25 and Christmas no longer existed? Her parents kissed her goodnight and tucked her in, but after they turned off the light and went downstairs, Phoebe tossed and turned. How could she sleep knowing that she might wake up to a world without Christmas?
Late into the night, Phoebe eventually fell asleep, as all over Warren, the clocks ticked closer to midnight and Christmas Day - if there was such a thing.
For the final part of this story, read Tuesday's Tribune Chronicle.

Temple Security Force
this wiki
The Temple Security Force was the security police of the Jedi Temple and the Temple Precinct surrounding it on Coruscant. Though the name was traditionally and generally applied to the non-Force-sensitive soldiers and police officers, Temple Security also included the Jedi Peacekeepers and the Jedi Temple Guards that were stationed on Coruscant. When not researching crime and assisting other jurisdictions in solving cases, the Jedi Peacekeepers would also patrol and could specialize as snipers and brutes. The Jedi Gate Master would supervise groups of Padawans to guard the entrances of Temple during the day and Jedi Knights from the Security Force to stand watch at night.
The Temple Security Force, specifically those who were not Force sensitive, protected the Jedi Temple as well as providing police services for the citizens living in the Temple Precinct that surrounded the Temple. They fought side by side with the Jedi Order in defending the Temple during several conflicts including the Sacking of Coruscant during the Great Galactic War and the invasion of the Temple at the end of the Clone Wars in which many lost their lives. During the days of the Galactic Empire, those who survived Order 66, which instructed all Jedi and their associates to be killed, joined Whiplash and the Alliance to Restore the Republic and continued their duties by helping Jedi escape from the Great Jedi Purge. With the rebuilding of the Jedi Temple under Luke Skywalker's New Jedi Order, the Temple Security Force returned to their posts to protect the Jedi and their sanctuary from any threat. This included attacks by Galactic Alliance soldiers such as the Galactic Alliance Guard and Galactic Alliance Security; both from the very government the Jedi were to protect and defend.
The history of the Temple Security Force was first written down in The Jedi Path: A Manual for Students of the Force by Jedi Master Crix Sunburris, a well respected Jedi Guardian and ace pilot.
The Temple Security Force was a security police force on Coruscant tasked with protecting the Jedi Temple and its successor, the Temple's Jedi occupants and treasures, and those civilians visiting or living in the surrounding Temple Precinct.[5]
Temple Security was divided into two groups. The largest and most visible group was composed of non-Force-sensitive beings. Trained as police and soldiers, their ranks included some former Jedi who had been unable to pass their Jedi Initiate Trials yet wanted to continue serving the Jedi Order. Though the name "Temple Security" was not always applied to them, the second group consisted of Jedi who had trained as Peacekeepers, a specialization under the field of study of the Jedi Guardian. Many Peacekeepers assisted the Coruscant Security Force or studied and tracked criminal activity. Those Peacekeepers who patrolled the Temple itself could also specialize as snipers and brutes. The Jedi Gate Master was tasked with overseeing the security of the entrances to the Temple including the Main Entrance, the Public Entrance, and the Reception Hall. Along with the regular security officers, the Gate Master would also supervise rotating groups of Padawans who guarded the Temple entrances by day and Jedi Knights who stood guard at night.[5]
Throughout the Temple, agents were deployed to safeguard various chambers. Two officers were regularly posted at the central security station where they monitored the security cameras running throughout the complex. During the Sacking of Coruscant of 3653 BBY, the Temple Security Forces attempted to help the Jedi defend the Temple from an assault of Sith and Imperial soldiers led by Darth Malgus, though they seemed to be no match for Force-sensitive opponents.[7] Agents were deployed to the bowels of the Temple in 44 BBY when Master Qui-Gon Jinn discovered the murderous Dark Jedi Xanatos lurking in the water tunnels. While Xanatos escaped, Security recovered his mode of transportation in to the waterway and confiscated it.[9] Several years later, at the height of the Clone Wars the Security Force was under the command of Chief of Security Temple battlemaster Cin Drallig. At the end of the war, the Republic's duplicitous Supreme Chancellor Palpatine issued Order 66 ordering the Grand Army of the Republic to invade the Temple and kill its occupants. Remaining loyal to the Jedi, the non-Force-users and Jedi alike fought against the 501st Legion during Operation: Knightfall until their numbers almost completely diminished. Those that escaped with their lives joined the underground group known as Whiplash.[8]
Following the reestablishment of the Order, Grand Master Luke Skywalker decided to reinstate the tradition of a security force at the Temple and began to build up a civilian group. While it is unknown if Gate Masters were appointed in the New Order, officers of the Order were once more tested and proved loyal following assaults by both Chief of State Jacen Solo and Natasi Daala. During the Second Galactic Civil War, the security forces retreated with the Order to the Jedi Outpost on Endor to aid in the protection of the Initiates there.[6] Years later in 43 ABY the security of the Temple was still active as new security measures were put in place to protect against invasion. During the incident at the Temple caused by Jysella Horn's Force psychosis, Security was called to the Jedi Archives and the main entrance to capture her. However, using a form of flow-walking, Horn escaped.[10]
Behind the scenesEdit
In Star Wars: Battlefront II, in the Naboo mission Naboo—Imperial Diplomacy of Rise of the Empire, the Naboo Soldiers closely resembled the temple security, if not exactly. The differences are that the Naboo use green bolts instead of red, and don't use rocket launchers. In the first Battlefront game, the Naboo Troopers looked like the movies, even though this could be because that was Episode 1 apparel, and by the time of the Empire, there could have been a uniform change. The Rebel classes from the first Battlefront may have also influenced their design, as the Vanguard has the same skin color as that game.
In Star Wars: The Old Republic, the Temple Security Force were initially suggested to being members of the Republic Special Forces Division, but this has proven to be false. While the Republic Special Forces weren't established until after the Treaty of Coruscant, the Temple Security Force were shown to exist (at the Sacking of Coruscant) before the treaty was ever signed.

Reggie Jackson entered the fourth quarter Tuesday against the Pistons with 12 points. He finished with 35, an Orlando Summer League record. And the Thunder won whatever to whatever to improve to 3-0 so far this week.
Five thoughts:
- REGINALD. He scored or assisted on 26 of OKC's final 28 points. He went 7-7 in the fourth for 23 points and an assist. At one point he scored 18 straight. And here's the best part of it: He did most of his damage with the jumper. That's been the top thing holding him back from really exploding as an offensive player. He can get to the rim and he can finish. But he's needed to find a mid-range or perimeter jumper to keep defenders honest, and punish them when the favor his drive. Once he splashed his first 3, it was on. He started attacking with complete confidence and just kept going and going and going. It's Summer League, and he was torching Kim English and Peyton Siva, but still, that was something very encouraging to see. As Thunder fans fret about OKC's bench and who the team didn't sign this offseason, it's pretty obvious the Thunder have a potentially special weapon already in Jackson.
- Lost in the shuffle of Jackson's explosion was that Steven Adams played a nice little ballgame. Early, I was feeling a bit of anxiety about Adams as he looked extremely lost and uncomfortable. But once he started to settle in and find the flow, he made plays where applicable, set good screens, played solid pick-and-roll defenses and for the most part, was where he was supposed to be when he was supposed to be there. He hit a mid-range jumper, dropped in a little baby hook in the post and had a few putbacks. He finished with 11 points and six rebounds in 31 minutes. It seemed to me that Adams lacks aggression, but I think he might just be a bit more composed and controlled. Cole Aldrich, if you'll remember, was always aggressive, but was mostly just jumping at everything, and often out of position. I would like to see Adams attack the ball more on the boards, instead of just using his size and length to grab the ball when it comes to him. There was one offensive rebound he should've grabbed in the first quarter with about nine minutes left that just required him go get it. But he stood flatfooted and it got knocked away from him.
- On Adams in the post: One of the biggest issues he had was dribbling in the post. Late in the first quarter, he used a decent-looking right hand baby hook that was lofted up with nice touch (didn't drop, but still), but the problem was him taking bumps and maintaining his handle. The easy fix is being quicker with your choice and going quick with what you want to do. With Adams, you can see the wheels turning in his head as he dribbles, trying to sort out what he's going to do.
- One more thought on Adams: He's got a pretty good feel in the pick-and-roll as a screener, it appears. He knows how to make his base big and take up a ton of space for the on-ball defender to have to get around. If you watch Jackson's explosion, a whole lot of that was set up by good screens and good space-taking by Adams. The next step is for him to become an offensive threat in those screen-and-roll situations. Because Perk can screen with the best of them. It's just that defenses know how to key around the fact Perk isn't an offensive threat. Adams has to at least worry defenders a little bit, whether it's with him rolling hard at the rim, or popping for a jumper.
- Andre Roberson is quietly having himself a nice little week. In 24 minutes he had four points and 10 rebounds. His activity to go with his athleticism and length is really impressive. He's just a painfully raw offensive player outside of the jumping and running.
A few leftovers:
- OK, it's time to talk about Dwight Buycks. He's played well in Summer League, which has warranted a ton of questions of "Should the Thunder just sign Buycks?" He's a nice little player. But there's a reason he's bounced around and hasn't been able to find a consistent roster spot. I like him too. But easy there, guys.
- Sleeves, not bad. That's all I have to say about them.
- DeAndre Liggins isn't looking any better. He can't dribble and he doesn't know what to do offensively unless he's cutting to the basket or spotting up in the corner.
- Kendall Gill was a bit overzealous on his comparisons. Tony Mitchell to Dennis Rodman, Andre Drummond to Hakeem Olajuwon, Jackson's fourth quarter to LeBron's against the Pistons in 2007.
- Both Jeremy Lamb and Daniel Orton sat today. Lamb was just resting, Orton was out with a mild concussion.

Like so many other commenters, I love the fabrics you used! Just gorgeous!
I do love Kaffe fabrics, hard to go wrong with them.
You've done it again! Fantastic!
Thank you Jean, what a nice thing to say!
I love the fabrics too but I am most impressed with the fussy cutting the "lightning" streak through that night sky. very clever
Time for a confession...no fussy cutting, I had made up several hexies a while a go, these were in my box and lined up interestingly, so it was just by chance, no planning on my part.
I just love your fabrics. I've made 9 or so for the first block and they are BORING. Will have to rethink. I have a black paisley background and it looks great on other blocks, but this one? Not so much. I took three hexies off the group after I sewed them on.......shows you how obsessive I am.
That could be fun, a paisley! Just play with it! Serendipity!!!
I'm so impressed by the way you've taken your fabrics and seen a picture in them - the moon, the ground, the lightning - and have made it all come to life. I'm looking forward to making these particular blocks as I haven't a clue how they're done and won't let myself read the notes or look at the video lesson until I get to it! (Got a long way to go, though - it's October and I've just completed January today!)
So fun Patz...you will have a ball, can't wait to see all your blocks!

It's over
July 25, 2011 - Mike McLain
The NFL lockout officially ended Monday, setting in motion what will be a crazy few weeks of signing free agents and draft choices while coaches try to make up for lost work on the practice field.
Teams can begin talking to the agents of free agents today, but they can't officially sign any until Friday. Teams can sign draft choices and undrafted rookies starting today, a process that shouldn't take too long because of the rookie wage scale.
The wage scale, which was a major goal of owners during negotiations, requires four-year, entry-level deals with an option for a fifth year. There will be a set limit for how much rookeis can make in the first four seasons -- first overall pick Cam Newton is expected to sign for $22 million.
Top 10 picks would make the average salary of the highest 10 paid players at their position if teams exercise the fifth-year option. Newton would makes $14 million, placing his total contract at $36 million, far less than the $80-million deal signed by Sam Bradford, the first overall pick in the 2010 draft.
There's no reason why teams can't get all their draft choices in the fold as soon as possible. The days of lengthy holdouts are over.
The signing of free agents shouldn't be a long process. General managers have had plenty of time -- almost five months -- to put together their wish lists. Look for a mass of signings on Friday.
Yes, it will be a crazy time, but it will be fun for fans that haven't had football to talk about since the draft was held in late April. By the time teams begin playing preseason games, the lockout will be forgotten.

KVIA ABC-7 reporter Alec Schreck goes into Juarez to put-to-test the "urban legend" that some taco stands in Mexico actually have served "tacos de perro", or "dog-meat tacos". Schreck followed up on a story that made national headlines: A Juarez man was arrested for allegedly barbecuing his neighbor's dogs. The suspect was later released and the charges were dropped.
Nonetheless, Alec Schreck visited a few taquerias in the city that borders El Paso, Texas to talk first-hand to street vendors about the "urban legend" dealing with "tacos de perro". It's a creative, humourous look at food popular on both sides of the border, and the stereotypes that often times (fairly and unfairly) are attributed to taco vendors in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico.

Instead, she's going to stay home and mark the milestone with a holiday party.
"I definitely want a winter-themed birthday – Christmas-themed," she tells PEOPLE. "And I'd really like to have it in my condo. I think that would be wonderful."
Though Swift says she's "not, by nature, a party girl," turning 21 will help her social life.
"It'll be cool that I'll be able to go to a lot of concerts that my friends always go to and I sit at home because it's 21 and over," she says. "Other than that, I don't think I'm going to all of a sudden start being in love with the idea of going to a club."
But that doesn't mean she doesn't like to have a good time. "I like to dance around and have fun with my friends and we have a blast, but I've never felt really compelled to be drunk and I don't think that's terribly awful," she says, but "I'm not one of those people who's never going to have a drink."
While Swift was open about her party theme and drinking legally, there is no word on whether new beau Jake Gyllenhaal will be on hand to help her celebrate with a cocktail or two.

I had some, and it set me up for some problems.
Note to self: frozen yogurt is not an acceptable substitute for plain yogurt.
Here's what happened:
Up at 5:30
8:45 smoked pork chop
grated zucchini with pesto
11:30 potbelly salad with
double meat and cheese
2:30 frozen yogurt while out shopping with the girls(I was in 'treat' mode)
3:30 real yogurt with
1T jam
4:00 pork chop(trying to stop those froyo induced cravings)
6:00 sashimi-swordfish, salmon, herring
1/2C rice
1/2C seaweed salad
carrot, cucumber
1/2C blackberries
small dark chocolate bar
8:30 small chocolate bar
Water: 10 glasses
Walking: 60"
Pains: yes
Bed at 9:30
I am looking forward to my Down Day today. But I do think I pinpointed the problem yesterday. The frozen yogurt made it too easy to say yes to the berries AND the chocolate, and then have another chocolate before bed. At least I didn't stop and have the vanilla shake that was calling my name while I was doing an excessive amount on driving in the evening!
I made a ridiculously complicated chart yesterday, for the pains. Time, intensity, position, food. I had hardly any the day before(a down day) and was disappointed when I had PLENTY to put on my chart yesterday.

A Look Back At 2012: My Favorite Ramblings on BabbleCasi Densmore-Koon
I've had 287 posts here on Babble since my very first one. 304 days ago exactly I joined the Babble team. It has been just amazing. Words can't describe how honored I was to be able to take this opportunity and write for Babble. It happened so quickly too! It has been so much fun to look back at all of my posts from the year. The ups and downs, the fun style posts, the pretty nurseries and, of course, my favorite pins. Through Instagram, my iPhone and Pinterest, it's all documented. My many hospital stays, my frustration with a high-risk pregnancy, my favorite mom tips — it is all documented on this amazing modern parent website that warms my heart everyday. The many comments, the reader advice under posts – I am so grateful for it all.
One of my highlights of 2012 was taking this position with Babble. It's been life-changing. I've met amazing people. I have the BEST co-workers. EVER. I've been able to vent and have people listen. I've cherished every single moment. I've written every post from my heart. I've loved every.single. minute. of my time here. And well, I can't wait to see what 2013 will bring here at Babble. It's always something amazing! That said, I thought it would be fun to take some time and go back over the year, highlighting some of my favorite posts.
Thank you — from the bottom of my heart, for always reading. Cheers to 2013!

Sweet Confections
By Nina Wanat
Gifted by Lark Crafts
Reviewed by Melissa Conner, Editor of FaveCrafts.com
Do you find yourself staring and oogling at the candy in the window? Are you drawn to light and airy marshmallows, rich chocolate truffles, gooy caramel candies, and sugary candied orange peels? Well, there's no need to stand there drooling at the bakery window...you can make all your confectionary favorites right in the comfort of your own home.
In her new book, Sweet Confections: Beautiful Candy to Make at Home, author Nina Wanat takes readers on a delicious journey through her candy land, with recipes broken down into three scrumptious categories: Crunchy Candy, Chewy Candy, and Silky Candy. There are also two special sections for those readers who may be new to candy making, with helpful suggestions on common materials and supplies you may need and delicious recipes for staple ingredients, like vanilla extract and candied ginger.
As a novice candy maker myself, I found Sweet Confections to be extremely helpful in the kitchen. The section on tempering chocolate was so helpful and gave me the best tips and suggestions for heating, reheating, melting, cutting, and testing chocolate for candy making. There were also awesome suggestions for how to dip candies, which I have struggled with for years! This book will completely change the way I make candy in the kitchen.
Just looking through the pictures in Sweet Confections is sure to motivate you to head on in to the kitchen and get baking. Each recipe comes with a beautiful full-color photograph, as well as a detailed materials list and easy-to-follow instructions. If you like baking and giving handmade candies as gifts for the holidays, Sweet Confections is a must-have on your book shelf.
With 40+ recipes to choose from and how-to guides to make everything from melting chocolate to boiling sugar as easy as possible, Sweet Confections is a beautiful book that will satisfy anyone's sweet tooth.

Ordinarily you should create an array with a missing element to insure
the "first drive" is the one you want. You just got lucky.

The 32-year-old man and his partner, 29, both from Bern, managed to escape the clutches of their captors in a dramatic escape in March.
On returning home, the couple faced a SFr10,000 bill from the foreign ministry that had spent months negotiating with the Taliban and then arranged their safe passage back to Switzerland.
But the costs were waived after the pair agreed to undertake unspecified and unpaid work for the foreign ministry, according to the Sonntag Sunday newspaper – a report later confirmed by the authorities.
The Bernese couple were two of a growing number of Swiss nationals who get into trouble on foreign trips every year. Only a handful are kidnapped and held to ransom, but others have come unstuck in different ways after wandering into unsafe areas.
The costs to the state for helping distressed citizens abroad is rising in line with the numbers of people who enjoy travelling to exotic locations – sometimes with inadequate regard for their personal safety.
The state of affairs led to then foreign minister Didier Burkhalter, calling in March for "the need for reflection on the responsibilities of each person regarding personal safety and the limits of state intervention."
Strained budget
This was not the first time that concerns have been expressed by the authorities at the cost of extricating people in trouble from abroad.
In 2009, foreign ministry officials highlighted that its consulate protection budget was under strain following the release of kidnapped Swiss citizen Werner Greiner from Mali. The tourist was snatched after visiting a tribe near to the border with Niger.
In June of this year, the government announced the creation of a new travel advice platform called Itineris. Swiss travellers that register can now get even more details both before and during their journey.
More countries have been added to the advice line, that is also available via Twitter and shortly to become a mobile phone app, together with more up-to-date information on the changing security situation in various regions.
It is also hoped that Itineris will make the search for missing persons easier.
The Swiss government's policy is not to pay ransoms, but the authorities spend hundreds of thousands of francs supporting Swiss travellers abroad each year.

Official Disney Press Release:
Three Disney Parks Celebrate Summer Fun with a Rockin' Bi-Coastal All-Nighter ANAHEIM, Calif. and LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (May 15, 2014) – Disney Parks will kick off the summer travel season with a 24-hour, coast-to-coast celebration that invites guests to "Rock Your Disney Side" at three Disney theme parks - Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park at the Disneyland Resort in California, and Magic Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida.
From 6 a.m. Friday, May 23, to 6 a.m. Saturday, May 24, 2014*, on each coast, guests will spend 24 hours laughing, screaming, dancing and embracing their own Disney Side – that fun, playful side that emerges as they enter a Disney park.
Disney pirates, princesses, villains and a few rarely seen characters will stay in the parks all day and all night, inviting guests to dress up for the occasion, too. Guests may join the party dressed in costume, perhaps as their favorite Disney Hero or Villain. Costumes should be child-friendly and adhere to any guidelines determined by Disney.
The 24-hour celebration of summer also features special entertainment in all three parks.
At Walt Disney World Resort, near Orlando, Florida
In Florida, a cast of Disney Villains will have a special place in the Magic Kingdom 24-hour celebration, including Maleficent, Cruella De Vil and such rarely spotted miscreants as the Big Bad Wolf, Stromboli from "Pinocchio," and Bowler Hat Guy from "Meet the Robinsons." They will appear in locations throughout the park and also join in the "It's Good to Be Bad" cavalcade preceding Disney's Main Street Electrical Parade.

Guests at the Magic Kingdom will enjoy nighttime dancing around Cinderella Castle and in Frontierland. The "#IncrediblesSuperDanceParty," a nightly feature throughout the summer, will be followed during the All-Nighter by special screenings of "The Incredibles" at the Rockettower Plaza Stage in Tomorrowland.
At the Disneyland Resort, Anaheim, California
In California, the 24-hour fun begins in the Esplanade outside the entrances to Disneyland and Disney California Adventure parks, where guests will discover Olaf, the lovable snowman from Disney's blockbuster animated film "Frozen, represented by a larger-than-life sand sculpture. Fireworks and live entertainment will entertain guests as the parks open at 6 a.m. Pacific Time.
At Disneyland, exciting entertainment will include the "Avengers Super Hero Movie Marathon" throughout the day and overnight in the Magic Eye Theater in Tomorrowland. Nighttime highlights will feature an after-midnight performance of "Mickey's Soundsational Parade" and dance-till-dawn parties at the Tomorrowland Terrace Dance Club and the Sleeping Beauty Castle Forecourt Dance Club. In addition to 24 hours of atmosphere entertainment and appearances by Disney characters, the Disney Villains are planning an overnight "takeover" of the Royal Hall in Fantasy Faire.
Disney California Adventure invites guests to kick off summer with an all-night "Mad T Party," dancing in Pacific Wharf and Paradise Garden, and a special 3 a.m. performance of "World of Color," the water spectacular with nearly 1,200 dancing fountains.
Just the Beginning
The All-Nighter is just the beginning of the summer fun at Disney Parks on both coasts.
At Walt Disney World, the new Seven Dwarfs Mine Train attraction, opening May 28, takes guests on a rollicking musical ride into the mine "where a million diamonds shine" and becomes the crowning jewel of New Fantasyland, the largest expansion in Magic Kingdom history. Also at Magic Kingdom, the Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade brings the magical stories of New Fantasyland to Main Street, U.S.A., through fantastic and innovative parade floats, vibrant costumes and an original soundtrack that features beloved songs from favorite Disney films along with a new parade theme song.
At Disney's Animal Kingdom, the popular and highly interactive musical show "Festival of the Lion King" returns this summer in the new Harambe Theatre. The park will offer Harambe Nights on Saturday evenings, June 7 through August 9, featuring a dazzling theatrical experience and energetic street party to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Disney's acclaimed "The Lion King."
At the Disneyland Resort, guests will enjoy the thrills of the newly reopened and enhanced Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, along with dazzling summer entertainment that, beginning in mid-June, will include "Frozen" characters in a special pre-parade float for "Mickey's Soundsational Parade." The pre-parade unit features Princess Anna and snowman Olaf frolicking in the snow while Queen Elsa is depicted in her icy domain.
Other summer entertainment in Disneyland includes daily performances of the enchanting "Mickey and the Magical Map" stage show, nightly performances of both "Fantasmic!" and "Magical" fireworks, featuring aerial flights by both Tinker Bell and Dumbo, and a variety of new entertainment daily in Big Thunder Ranch Jamboree. At Disney California Adventure, guests continue to enjoy the thrills and fun of Cars Land and the after-dark excitement of "World of Color" and "Mad T Party."

Pharmacy Student PAC
One of my biggest complaints with the profession of pharmacy is a general lack of political involvement. Pharmacists tend to not be politically active. But one pharmacy school is taking an interesting step to help resolve that problem.
According to the University of Houston's student paper The Daily Cougar, a student run political action committee (PAC) has been organized at the UH College of Pharmacy. The goal of the new PAC is to foster relationships between pharmacy students and local representatives.
A pharmacy focused political action committee isn't something new. Several of the larger pharmacy organizations including the APhA have PACs. I've worked for a couple of employers that have also created their own PAC. But a pharmacy school based PAC is not as common.
Getting future pharmacists to understand the importance of the political system and how it impacts the profession of pharmacy is a very good thing. Politics matters whether we like it or not. It's better to accept that fact rather than ignore the political process and simply hope for the best.
Pharmaceutical companies spend lots of money for lobbyists and have their own PACs. Pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) do the same. There is no reason why pharmacists shouldn't also make our voices heard in some sort of official capacity.
I think this story from a school newspaper is an encouraging sign. It's good news for the profession if future pharmacists are taking the initiative to become more politically active.
Pharmacists can make a strong case for our existence and the expansion of our roles in the healthcare system. But if the right people don't hear our message, we will risk becoming marginalized or worse.
I have contacted local politicians regarding issues I thought were important that were related to the profession of pharmacy. I thought it was important to voice my concerns and to let my representatives know what issues are important to me.
Having organized PACs with specific agendas and goals can be more imfluencial than just one individual contacting a politician. We don't just want to speak our minds. We need people to listen.
And it's not enough to merely contact politicians. We must focus our efforts and spell out specific concerns and problems to them. Our futures may depend on the right person hearing what we have to say.
I'd just like to wish the UH College of Pharmacy's PAC good luck. You have the support of one pharmacist. I think it's important that students are getting involved. I just hope we all will follow your lead.

http://www.pharmacistactivist.com/2013/January_2013.shtml The newsletter is written by Daniel A. Hussar of the faculty of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy at the University of the Sciences in Philadelphia.
Calls for the 12 some odd national pharmacy associations MERGE..
And he makes a good point.. how can pharmacy be effectively and efficiently with so many voices and supporting so many different overhead/infrastructures costs?
There was a show on the other night (CBNC I think) about the amount of money flowing around/thru lobby groups in DC.. it pointed out that GE .. expends $107,000 PER DAY… 365 days a year on lobbying costs.
IMO.. pharmacy is going to have to consolidate their PAC's, their resources and focus… or RPH's need to open their pocket books a lot wider… I am not putting any money on either of these happening – at least not in the near term.. after all.. for the most part… pharmacy tends to me more reactive than proactive.

One thing I've learned is that providing an excuse invites a conversation about why you don't want it. I just say "No, thank you." If pressed, I repeat, "No, but I appreciate your offer/concern."
I'm currently out of a job and it's a good thing too! The customers at the bank I used to work at bring in plates of home made cookies, fudge, chocolates, and pizzas for us. They'll stand there and watch you eat it to see if you appreciate their gift. While I miss all the awesome customers, I certainly don't miss the sweets and sugars they gave me!

Independent advice on debt and other finance issues is being laid on for Middlesbrough residents – and it's completely free.
Middlesbrough Partnership's Financial Inclusion Group is making sound financial support and advice available to as many people as possible.
The latest in a series of Free Advice Days – open to all members of the community - takes place on Wednesday, July 6, from 10am to 2pm in the West Middlesbrough Neighbourhood Trust Acklam Green Centre in Stainsby Road, Middlesbrough.
Partners from the public, private and voluntary sectors will be on hand to ensure people know where to go for help on financial, legal, housing and employment issues.
Some appointments will be pre-booked – but members of the public are welcome to drop in and chat to caseworkers, with every attempt made to deal with their problems on the spot.
Middlesbrough Partnership Financial Inclusion Group Chairman John Daniels said: "With widespread cuts to local services starting to take effect and the cost of living rising all the time, it's vital that people know what they're entitled to – and where they can turn for help.
"Family budgets are under unprecedented pressure and it's more important than ever that we are able to manage our finances to make our money go as far as possible – and understand the options open to us when things go wrong."
Councillor Julia Rostron, Middlesbrough Council's Executive Member for Community Protection, said: "These are tough times for everyone, and people need sound, impartial advice and support more than ever.
"Events such like the Free Advice Day can mean the difference between despair and hope – I'd urge anyone who has a problem, however small, to attend."

Crime, Punishment, Religion, and Constitutional Interpretation
Andrew Koch
Appalachian State University
Paul H. Gates Jr.
Appalachian State University
Western Political Science Association 2010 Annual Meeting Paper
This paper will examine the role cultural beliefs play in the confinement, control, and torture of the human body as acts of justice. Specifically, the work will explore the links between some of the foundational ideas of Christianity and the nature of constitutional law in the United State regarding matters of crime and punishment. These will include the role of biblical interpretation in defining of justice, the significance of the notion of 'free will' in the determination of sentencing for criminal behavior, and the significance of the idea of transcendence in the characterization of the law and punishment. This will include a discussion of the role of natural law. The paper will conclude with some suggestions regarding constitutional interpretation that seeks to move away from the influence of non-secular considerations in matters of criminal justice.

To the Editor: I read with interest your article on Reticulose in the American Journal of Diseases of Children for May. Dr. Ralph Thompson and I published an initial series of 5 cases of viral infections treated with Reticulose in 1957. Dr. Thompson is a pathologist who has retired from the army and is now working at Alexandria Hospital. Before retirement he was chief of the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology. While in the Army he participated in experiments in which monkeys with irradiation injury were treated with Reticulose to raise the depressed white blood cell count. They found that the monkeys not treated with Reticulose died of viral pneumonia and that those treated with Reticulose survived. This was the basis for trying Reticulose in the treatment of viral infections.
In our original article we mentioned that this was a preliminary report and that further studies should be done. By this we meant

Political talk about the merits of preschool evolved into a heated debate about Nazi indoctrination today in the Iowa Senate.
Republican Sen. Mark Chelgren said it's parents' responsibility to teach young children.
"It is not the role of this government to take that away from families and replace it with an indoctrination process by teachers," Chelgren, a freshman senator from Ottumwa, said shortly after the Senate gaveled in for the afternoon.
Senate Majority Leader Mike Gronstal fired back that all the Iowa Legislature's early childhood programs over the last 25 years were designed to make sure parents are children's best teachers.
"That's what our programs are about," Gronstal said. "They're not about indoctrination. We don't try and change who they are. We don't try to change them into Democrats. Or Republicans. We try to help parents be their first and best teachers."
Gronstal said to compare Iowa's free preschool program for all 4-year-olds to totalitarian regimes "does a disservice to a half million kids in K through 12 education, and another 25,000 or 30,000 in early childhood education."
Iowa's preschool program is voluntary; parents currently choose whether to send their children to a public program, a state-funded private program or a private program that gets no tax money.
Chelgren took to the microphone again to explain that his statement was "not against preschool," but "about a parent's prerogative to make decisions about their children."
He said he chose to send his own children to preschool because he thought it was in their best interests.
But he said he's heard talk about the state taking over "pre-preschool" responsibilities.
"Every argument made about preschool could be made about pre-preschool and pre-pre-preschool and as far back as you want to go until the day they are taken," Chelgren said.
Senate Minority Leader Paul McKinley defended Chelgren.
"Senator Chelgren was not accusing the education system of indoctrinating like totalitarian governments rather he was making a point that children's minds are very impressionable at that age," said McKinley, R-Chariton.
McKinley questioned Gov. Terry Branstad's proposal that the state help pay for preschool for parents who earn up to $67,000.
"Do we really want to have another entitlement for families earning $66,000 a year?" McKinley said.
Under Branstad's plan, the state would continue to pay for preschool, whether in public or private schools as it does now. All families would pay the preschool something, but fees would range from $3 a month for the neediest families to $133 a month for a family of four that earns $67,000 a year.
Democratic Sen. Tom Courtney said he recently visited Black Hawk Preschool in Burlington where a teacher named Rachel was trying to give about 40 kids a head start on kindergarten.
"Didn't see any Nazis," said Courtney, who lives in Burlington. "Didn't see any indoctrination."
Courtney said he thinks state government should pay for preschool for all kids. "I can't figure out for the life of me why the state wouldn't want kids taught from four years old clear into community college," he said.
Democratic Sen. Matt McCoy said as a college history major, he learned that the Nazis "closed the public libraries, burned the books, closed the schools, shot the teachers, shot the priests, shot the educated class, so that there were a bunch of ignoramuses which made up the Nazi regime running the country. It was about not educating people."
McCoy, of Des Moines, added: "That is not what's happening in the Iowa school system today."
Chelgren said he thinks preschool is a good idea, but federally-funded Head Start programs are available for help low-income parents who want to educate their children with preschool.
Chelgren, in his own words: "As Senator McCoy pointed out, the Chinese are taking 2- and 3-year-olds and educating them. And as a student of history, I also know the Nazis, the Soviets, a whole variety of groups, a whole variety of countries, take their children because it's not just up to age six they're so malleable. The day after they're born is when they learn the most percentage-wise. And so what question I have for this body and the question I have in general, if it is all about indoctrinating a child, I would use the exact same arguments that the Nazis used, that we should take children immediately, as soon as we recognize they have potential. What I would challenge with us instead is to put the responsibility on the parents. Because it is parents' responsibility and families' responsibility to make sure that in the formative year of growing the child, they are taught the values and they are taught and educated by their families and they have that bond, that maternal and paternal bond, that is developed during that time. It is not the role of this government to take that away from families and replace it with an indoctrination process by teachers."

Our Formula Function Reference
Formula Function Reference
WorkdayAdd - WorkDates
(WorkDate d, Numeric n)
Result Type:
Returns the date obtained by adding n days to the date d. The calculation includes the date d as one of the n days. For example, adding 2 days to 10/31/2003 which is a Friday will give you 11/01/2003 since it counts 10/31/2003 as 1 day and 11/01/2003 (a Saturday) as the second day.
WorkdayAdd([Order Date],7) returns the date seven days after the value in the Order Date field. WorkdayAdd(ToWorkDate(ToDate("10/31/2003")), 1) returns 10/31/2003 while WorkdayAdd(ToWorkDate(ToDate("10/31/2003")), 2) returns 11/01/2003

WorkdayAdd function
Submitted by Tim Stevenson (not verified) on Tue, 11/24/2009 - 18:07.
When I change my function from WeekdayAdd() to WorkdayAdd() I get an error message. The parameters within the function are not being changed. Any ideas why WeekdayAdd works but not WorkdayAdd?
