Gum Disease Treatment
Periodontal disease is diagnosed by your dentist or dental hygienist during a periodontal examination.
A small dental instrument is gently used to measure the pocket or space between the tooth and the gums. The depth of healthy gums measure three millimeters or less and does not bleed. The periodontal probe helps indicate if pockets are deeper than three millimeters. As gum disease progresses, the pockets usually get deeper.
Your dentist or hygienist will use pocket depths, amount of bleeding, inflammation, tooth mobility, etc., to make a diagnosis that will fall into a category below:
Gingivitis is the first stage of periodontal disease. Plaque and its toxin by-products irritate the gums, making them tender, inflamed, and likely to bleed.
Plaque hardens into calculus (tartar). As calculus and plaque continue to build up, the gums begin to recede from the teeth. Deeper pockets form between the gums and teeth and become filled with bacteria and pus. The gums become very irritated, inflamed, and bleed easily. Calculus secretes toxins that the bone shrinks away from, and as a result bone loss may be present.
Advanced Periodontitis
The teeth lose more support as the gums, bone, and periodontal ligament continue to be destroyed. Unless treated, the affected teeth will become very loose and may be lost. Generalized moderate to severe bone loss may be present.
Gum Disease Treatment
Gum treatment methods depend upon the type and severity of the disease. Your dentist and dental hygienist will recommend appropriate treatment.
Gum disease progresses as the pocket or space between the tooth and gums fill with bacteria, plaque, and tartar, causing irritation to the surrounding tissues. When these irritants remain in the pocket, they can cause damage to the gums and eventually, the bone that supports the teeth.
If the disease is caught in the early stages of gingivitis, and no damage has been done, one to two regular cleanings will be recommended. You will also be given instructions on improving your daily oral hygiene habits and having regular dental cleanings.
If the disease has progressed to more advanced stages, a special periodontal deep cleaning will be recommended. In this procedure, tartar, plaque, and toxins are removed from above and below the gum line and rough spots on root surfaces are made smooth. This procedure helps gum tissue to heal and pockets to shrink. Mouth rinses, medications, and an electric toothbrush are recommended to help control infection and healing.
Gum Disease Maintenance
It only takes twenty-four hours for plaque that is not removed from your teeth to turn into calculus (tartar)! Daily home cleaning helps control plaque and tartar formation, but those hard to reach areas will always need special attention.
Once your gum treatment has been completed, your dentist and dental hygienist will recommend that you have regular maintenance cleanings (periodontal cleanings), usually four times a year. At these cleaning appointments, the pocket depths will be checked. Plaque and calculus that is difficult for you to remove on a daily basis will be removed from above and below the gum line.
In addition to your periodontal cleaning and evaluation, your dental appointment will usually include:
Examination of diagnostic x-rays (radiographs): Essential for detection of decay, tumors, cysts, and bone loss. X-rays also help determine tooth and root positions.
Examination of existing restorations: Check current fillings, crowns, etc.
Examination of tooth decay: Check all tooth surfaces for decay.
Oral cancer screening: Check the face, neck, lips, tongue, throat, cheek tissues, and gums for any signs of oral cancer.
Oral hygiene recommendations: Review and recommend oral hygiene aids as needed (Electric toothbrushes, special periodontal brushes, fluorides, rinses, etc.)
Teeth polishing: Remove stain and plaque that is not otherwise removed during tooth brushing.
Good oral hygiene practices and periodontal cleanings are essential in maintaining dental health and keeping gum disease under control!

Habits: Signs of Passive Aggressive Behavior in a Marriage
My friend and neighbor shared this great story on my Blog about the last time (the final time?) her husband agreed to do the family's grocery shopping:
I typically do all of the food shopping for my family. My husband appreciates this, as food shopping is one of his LEAST favorite domestic duties. As much as I try to avoid asking him to do it, there have been occasions when there was no other alternative.... so he reluctantly walks out the door, reusable grocery bags in-hand, and what does he come home with after an hour at the food store? (Keep in mind, I give him a very specific list.) After I sort through the 4 bags of chips and various other snack foods, I get the following: I asked for rice milk, he bought soy milk; I asked for swiss cheese, he bought American; I asked for wheat bread, he bought Texas Toast; I asked for whole wheat pancakes, he bought 4 boxes of Pop Tarts (OK! Who doesn't love Pop Tarts? But do they replace whole wheat pancakes? No.) The list goes on, but you get the point. Needless to say, I no longer ask him to go food shopping. I just don't have enough room in my pantry for more pop tarts.
When I think of this friend and her husband, I think "happy couple." The woman is, in fact, my role model for honest, assertive communication. Yet, even in the healthiest relationships, a little passive aggression always seems to fall in. Why does compliant defiance thrive in most marriages? Here are two subversive reasons:
Passive Aggressive Behavior Is the Path to Least Resistance
Passive aggression is a deliberate and masked way of expressing covert feelings of anger. The chronically passive aggression person expresses anger through such indirect means as procrastination, sulking, "forgetting" and intentional inefficiency across most situations, almost all of the time. et even those who are normally honest and direct in their dealings may choose to behave in passive aggressive ways at certain times.
In marriages, husbands and wives often use passive aggressive behavior as the path of least resistance. In other words, a person wants to say "no" to a request, but realizes that doing so will likely result in an immediate disagreement or confrontation. To avoid the temporary unpleasantness, a partner verbally agrees to a request but behaviorally delays its completion or—more crafty yet—carries out the task according to unacceptable standards (e.g. Pop Tart excess) in hopes of not being asked to carry out the request in the future. Fortunately, situation-specific passive aggressive behavior in a marriage, though infuriating in the moment, is usually quite manageable when confronted directly and consistently.
Passive Aggressive Behavior Is a Habit
For some, passive aggressive behavior is not just a situational choice, but rather a deeply ingrained personality type. When a child is raised in an environment in which the expression of angry feelings is not tolerated, he learns to use indirect, passive aggressive means to express himself. In marriage, this adult child overgeneralizes and responds to his spouse as if she were the parent who stifled his emotional expression. Genuinely-loved partners become undeserving targets of ingrained passive aggressive habits and are especially hurt, confused, and frustrated to receive it. The relationship is often brought to the boiling point.
Another aspect that makes passive aggression particularly toxic in a marriage is how it is modeled to the next generation. Children of passive aggressive parents learn the indirect expression of anger as a way of life. They grow up with the belief that "anger = bad" and that hiding anger is the right, healthy, proper thing to do. Chronic passive aggression can be just as damaging to a marriage and family as outward aggression and requires focused efforts at long-term behavioral change.
Whether situational or chronic, unchecked passive aggressive behavior can wreak havoc on marriages and families.

I found your post via a Google search on passive aggressive behaviours in a marriage.
I had been divorced for 12 years when I married again recently; I'm 54, my new husband is 52. I got to know my husband on an online current events forum, I travelled to his country to spend time with him in person, so I knew when I married him he had some passive aggressive tendencies, lol, but on occasion the behaviours can be very difficult to cope with. I am a direct person-if he has a problem with a request he needs to tell me. He doesn't see it that way, and I have found myself letting him get away with passive aggressive behaviours. I don't like that about myself.
He was raised in an unhappy, covertly angry home by a single mother. He left at the age of 16 and didn't go back until she was dying.
I'm not going to give up on him, I love him. But I am going to make sure I stay strong in my own sense of self and worth, or he will inadvertently shred me. Thank-you for the post, and the links.
Dear Sunnie,
I read your posting and found it ineteresting. I too am living with a man who I believe has passive-aggressive behavior. He refuses to acknowledge his behavior and it's only gotten worse. After 27 years I fear I cannot go on in my marriage. I would love to hea from someone who has tackled this problem sucessfully.
This describes my husband perfectly. I have had a very frustrating 20 year marriage to this man. I rerpeatedly deal and say the same things, actions never change and the blame is always on me. We are currently on the verge of divorce.
I am facing a similar issue with my husband.Just that we have been married for 3 years now and I am unable to tolerate this passive-aggressive beahiviour any longer.I prefer talking straight and dealing with things. It has taken me so long to even identify this.
Any successful suggestions, please let me know
I am in month two of my divorce from the PA husband of 17 years. All this time I thought that I was this monster that was never satisfied with him, that my anger was because I was messed-up. I didn't realize that he was playing a game with me. I would beg him to open-up and when he would it was usually when he was drunk and we were having an argument. If I didn't repsond to his liking he would say "see, you don't really want to know, hear or see what you do or say about you that bothers me.." I felt crazy for a long time and very unsure of myself as a person.
Now that the divorce is proceeding I am beginning to see more and more of how he manipulated me in our marriage. Now that I don't have to walk on eggshells or be careful in what I say I see that I have been held hostage in my marriage, by him and myself.
Its going to be a long road to recover from this abuse but I will take it one step at a time.
For those contemplating divorce, I suggest reading as much as possible about PA's. They won't change unless they are willing and there will be years and years of hardwork and therapy. Ask yourself, are you willing to stick around while they heal? What if they start then stop? What would be your firm boundries? My PA promised that he would seek treatment, do better etc… he didn't seek it for himself (he went for about 4 months total then just up and quit saying he wasn't getting anything out of it.) When I would pull away from him he would promise me the therapy moon. This last time didn't work! I had had too much lip service.
So trust that little voice in yourself when it is screaming at you. Divorcing a PA won't be easy but staying in a relationship with one is even harder.
The worst impact, and this is what PA behaviour is designed to do, is that when you point out what the person has done, they claim their innocence and blame you for being mean to them. When you get angry at them, they don't respond at all, so you look like the aggressor. All this focuses blame on you, and you feel horrible about yourself too. You cannot prove that they are guilty but it happens continuously and you feel there is no escape apart from genuinely getting away from the person, which must be what they ultimately desire.

Getting rid of the C stack in Stackless is just a means for the aim of handling a lot of concurrent tasklets (=microthreads) with reasonable ressource requirements. IMHO Stackless should be renamed into something like "Microthreaded Python" "Parallel Python" or something like that... Or even better, the main Python implementation should be "Stackless"ed.

A TEENAGER and a man have been arrested in connection with car crime in Church Hill.
Officers were called to Loxley Close about 2.45am on Wednesday (June 4) after a member of the public heard a car alarm sounding. They found the window of a Vauxhall Insignia had been smashed and an attempt had been made to force the door, causing £200 of damage.
It was also discovered a Skoda had been broken into in nearby Arley Close overnight between Tuesday and Wednesday (June 3 to 4) with the window having again been smashed causing £100 worth of damage. A sat nav worth £200 and a phone charger worth £10 were stolen but later recovered.
An 18-year-old woman and a 40-year-old man were arrested on suspicion of going equipped and attempted theft and were released on bail until July 3, pending further inquiries.
The arrests follow a spate of vehicle crimes in the Church Hill area in recent days. Six took place in Exhall Close including three overnight between Tuesday and Wednesday when a Mercedes van was broken into but nothing was stolen.
A Ford Fusion was also targeted with a signed album by singer-songwriter Jon Gom worth £20 and a pair of Second World War binoculars worth £50 taken while a pair of Gucci sunglasses worth £180 were stolen from a Vauxhall Corsa.
Three other incidents in Exhall Close took place overnight between Sunday and Monday (June 1 and 2) in which £350 worth of damage was caused to a Vauxhall Corsa when an attempt was made to remove the integral sat nav, a £100 sat nav was stolen from a Mercedes along with a black box inside vehicle camera worth £30, and a Vauxhall Astra was broken into and a work pass was removed.
A Hyundai was also broken into in Barnwood Close but nothing was taken.

JP: Before the tournament starts, have you taken an opportunity to appreciate a perfect season?
BT: Well, I wasn't around for last one. All I can relate to is the last 10 years. We're proud of it. It certainly didn't come easily.We had to overcome Jesse [Hubbard's] injury. We've had illnesses. Our seniors had to finish their theses. We overcame all that. To be honest, I'm not sure the players appreciate what they've accomplished so far.
JP: Doesn't that suggest that the program has grown to the point where it is not judged by the regular season?
BT: It shows a lot about the program and where the kids are. I like that mentality. They're not looking at it like this is the end. That's a positive. There are many more things ahead.
JP: When you first came to Princeton, did you think you could build something like this?
BT: Let's put it this way: I didn't think we couldn't do it. Our goals at that time were short-term. We wanted to bring the program to respectability in the league, maybe shoot for Ivy League titles someday. We wanted to make the University proud of the lacrosse team . From a personal standpoint, I wanted to make sure that the players we put on the field and had graduating from here were people that the University could be proud of. What naturally goes along with that is national championships or at least competing for them. We started realizing in 1990 how close we were getting when we beat Johns Hopkins in the playoffs. Our goals changed drastically then.
JP: Were there other breakthrough moments?
BT: On the field, there were a lot of moments. Torr Marro's overtime goal against Navy in 1990 showed us we could play with the big boys. We hadn't beaten them in a long time. The win over Hopkins. The Towson State loss in 1991 in the quarterfinals. We lost in triple overtime. We were in the locker room after that game, knowing we had the bulk of the team back. We set the goal that day to win it all.
JP: Is 1992 the fondest season you've had?
BT: Anytime you have a milestone achievement for a program, it's going to be special. Also the fact that we weren't expected to win made it very memorable. People might have underestimated our ability that year, but we won on a lot of other things.
JP: What about the Class of 1994?
BT: That class was overlooked a little in 1992. Not everybody realized how significant that group was to the '92 title. That's part of what motivated those guys. I remember Kevin Lowe in September of 1993 saying 'we want one of our own, that 1992 was nice, but we want one of our own.' I thought there was more pressure on the 1994 than any team. They were very vocal about the fact that they'd settle for nothing else than a national championship. There's a lot of luck invovled in winning a game in overtime.
JP: Did 1994 establish Princeton's position in the game?
BT: There was definitely a respect issue and people realized that we were a good team. Still I don't think it established us as a power. People said Kevin Lowe, Scott Bacigalupo, Scott Reinhardt, Taylor Simmers were all leaving. What this current group has done is said that we're here for a while.I always tell the kids that it's consistency over a long period of time that tells the story, not just one win.
JP: The 1992 and 1994 teams were known for defense and patience on offense. The 1996 team, and this year's team, are known for their quick-strike offense. Have you made a conscious change in approach?
BT: Princeton became known for defense and slowing it down on offense and people say that that was my style. That was actually born out of necessity. We weren't as good as other teams. The credit should go to David Metzbower and the other assistant coaches who helped establish what we were. One thing about me as a coach is to coach according to personnel. There's a certain degree of control freak in me, and once you let the animals run the zoo, you're never gonna close the gate. And I mean that fondly. It's not me. It's who you have.
JP: Did you know what you had when recruited Jon Hess, Jesse Hubbard and Chris Massey?
BT: Yes. We thought we had something very special with those three, but they all had huge question marks. Jon was small physically. Massey played on a great team with another great attackman. We didn't know how he'd fit in the system. With Jesse, we just knew had to find a way to get him the ball. All three of them had the ball in their stick an awful lot in high school. When you throw them together, you're not sure what's going to happen.
JP: What does it say about guys like Todd Eichelberger and Lorne Smith, who moved from attack to midfield because of Hess, Hubbard and Massey.
BT: It says a lot. You're talking about guys who could score a lot more than they do. Ike could have been one of those attack guys, especially this year. He accepted the situation and thrived in it. He knows that if you are unselfish, you get the ball back a lot too. Lorne Smith could have been one of best attackmen to play here and will be in his senior year, but he made a decision to come to Princeton based on lot of reasons. Everybody in the country asked him why he would come here with Hess, Hubbard and Massey. We made decision that we had to get him on the field.
JP: David Morrow was quoted as saying that he was basically a bad player when you found him and the national player of the year when he left. If your players owe something to you, do you feel you owe something to what they've done for you?
BT: Absolutely. The first thing I thought of when I was named world team coach was the players I'd coached at Princeton. I'd hate to start listing names because I'd leave too many out. I have a wall in my office with 24 All-Americas on it. Every one of those guys is a guy I owe something to. And then there are unheralded guys too. Look at the face-off guys, Greg Waller, Paul Murphy, James Mitchell. Without them, we don't win three national championships. I have a great deal of indebtedness to them, and that's just one position. A lot of guys who didn't make anybody's all-anything team are responsible for what I've been able accomplish. I don't forget that.
JP: Your son, Trevor, will be a freshman on the Princeton team next year. Can you talk about coaching him?
BT: That's one thing where I can't go back to something I've done in the past and ask myself how I handled it. I can't look at this experience from a previous year and see what I did right or wrong. That's what you want in life and in coaching. New challenges. I talked to Dave Urick about it. He's coaching his son now, and he said there's nothing like it. It's the right thing and don't doubt it for a second. That meant a lot to me. I know his son Scott well. I know their relationship is a lot like Trevor's and mine. I respect what he had to say about it.
JP: You've been around the game long enough to see the evolution of the NCAA tournament. Has it grown beyond anything you thought it would be?
BT: My first experience at the Division I tournament was when we played in it at Cortland State. We beat Army and lost to Virginia . I think that Virginia game is still the largest crowd ever to see a sporting event at Cortland. That was my first touch of it. To move on from there and watch the games and see it grow has been great. I coached at the Final Four in 1986 as an assistant at Johns Hopkins, and now it's grown from there. I have to give a lot of people credit. Many coaches, myself included, doubted the wisdom of the Final Four concept. There's been no more signficant moment for the growth of the college game than that. To see it now, with all the people who are there, is a great moment.
JP: Win or lose at the NCAA tournament this year, the off-season is going to be different with your responsibilities with the national team.
BT: I don't think it's hit me yet. When I was named, we were getting ready for our first game. We've been going through some things for tryouts, and it'll hit soon. It's an overwhelming responsibility. It's a thrill that's tough to match in our game. To be recognized by your peers as someone able to coach that team is a great honor.
JP: With all that you've accomplished at Princeton, have you been able to maintain your same level of motivation?
BT: The beauty of coaching is that each year is different. You have new kids. New challenges. Each year is a new group of 45, and everyone else has new group of 45. There's nothing mundane about it. Every year is it's own challenge, and that keeps me going for a fourth championship as hard as going for a first. It'll be the same next year, whether we win this year or not.

The weather was cold, but football recruiting has heated up at Penn State this weekend.
The Nittany Lions gained three verbal commitments on what has been their biggest official visit weekend of the offseason. Woodbury, N.J. receiver Shawney Kersey and Buffalo lineman John Urschel have announced their intentions to become part of Penn State's 2009 recruiting class during official visits to University Park.
In addition, Paul Jones, one of the top junior quarterback prospects in the country, has also pulled the trigger. He becomes the second Lion commitment for 2010.
The Gloucester County (N.J.) Times is reporting today that Woodbury High School wide receiver Shawney Kersey has decided to back out of his verbal commitment to Rutgers and switch to Penn State.
Kersey informed the newspaper on Friday.
Kersey, a 6-foot-2, 180-pounder with 10.8 speed in the 100-meter dash and a 30-inch vertical leap, was considered one of the top receiver prospects in the northeast, but injuries plagued him in his senior year. As a junior, Kersey averaged almost 20 yards per reception and scored three times on catches, twice on runs and twice on returns. He also had three interceptions as a defensive back.
He was closely connected to Penn State from early on, but the school and Kersey seemed to part ways over the summer. Academic issues -- Kersey, reportedly, had yet to take his college boards -- were speculated to be at the heart of Penn State backing off.
However, the Lions, looking for a lot of receivers in this recruiting class, jumped back into things with Kersey around the time his friend, Paulsboro, N.J. safety Gerald Hodges, switched his commitment from Rutgers to the Nittany Lions in December.
The 6-4, 275-pound Urschel was a virtual unknown in recruiting circles entering the season before having a breakout senior year. In December, Urschel was the recipient of the Trench Trophy, which is given to the best high school lineman in western New York.
According to his coach, Urschel had offers from Stanford, Boston College, Syracuse and Buffalo and was beginning to get attention from Miami.
Jones, from Sto-Rox, joins Canon-McMillan linebacker Mike Hull in getting the Lions off to an impressive jump on next year's recruiting.
A first-team Associated Press Class AA all-state selection, Jones was one of just four underclassmen named to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette's Fabulous 22 in 2008.
Jones (6-3, 225) is coming off a season in which he completed 115 of 186 passes for 2,020 yards and 24 touchdowns, and he is 228-for-398 for 3,870 yards in the last two years. He's also considered a dangerous runner.
Pitt, North Carolina State, Iowa, Stanford and Duke were among the other schools to already have offered Jones, and Michigan was known to have interest.
Kersey and Urschel's commitments are the 24th and 25th for the Lions, who are expected to bring in around 28 recruits in this class; several of those have already enrolled and a couple of others might enroll next January to comply with the NCAA's 25-scholarship-per-year limit.
The Lions were also entertaining several other uncommitted prospects this weekend, including All-American linebacker Jelani Jenkins of Maryland and all-state Delaware receiver Justin Brown.

Mars missions will generate a large amount of data in various forms, such as daily plans, images, and scientific information. Often, there is a semantic linkage between images that cannot be captured automatically. Software is needed that will provide a method for creating arbitrary tags for this mission data so that items with a similar tag can be related to each other. The tags should be visible and searchable for all users.
- Give a semantic and meaningful description to mission data; for example, tag all images with a rock in them with the tag "rock."
- Rapidly recall specific and useful pieces of data; for example, tag a plan as "driving template."
- Call specific data to a user's attention; for example, tag a plan as "for:User."

The summary below is from the full report titled "Effectiveness of Leech Therapy in Osteoarthritis of the Knee. A Randomized, Controlled Trial." It is in the 4 November 2003 issue of Annals of Internal Medicine (volume 139, pages 724-730). The authors are A. Michalsen, S. Klotz, R. Lüdtke, S. Moebus, G. Spahn, and G.J. Dobos.
Knee osteoarthritis ("arthritis") is a common condition in which changes in the knee joints lead to pain and disability. Typical treatments for knee osteoarthritis include oral or topical medicines to decrease pain and inflammation; knee injections with pain relievers or steroids; exercise; and, in severe cases, surgical replacement of the knee. Unfortunately, typical treatments often provide little or no relief. Leeches have been used for medical purposes since ancient times with varying success. Leeches attach to mammals and feed on their blood. Leech saliva contains many substances that could be responsible for their therapeutic effects. Various substances, including hirudin, decrease inflammation. Since inflammation is responsible for the symptoms of osteoarthritis, researchers believe that leeches might relieve pain in patients with osteoarthritis.
To compare leech therapy with a more conventional therapy for knee osteoarthritis.
51 patients 40 years of age or older with knee osteoarthritis and a high pain rating on a standard osteoarthritis questionnaire. To participate in the study, patients could not have had knee injections within the previous 3 months of entering the study or knee surgery at any time.
The researchers assigned patients at random to receive either leech therapy or treatment with diclofenac gel. The leech therapy patients had 1 treatment session during which the researchers applied 4 to 6 leeches to the affected knee. The leeches stayed on the knee until they detached themselves (about 70 minutes), and then patients rested the knee for 12 hours. The researchers instructed the diclofenac group to apply the gel to the affected knee at least twice a day. Patients could use other oral osteoarthritis medicines as needed. After 3, 7, 28, and 91 days, the researchers measured patients' pain, stiffness, and function by using standard questionnaires.
Patients receiving leech therapy reported less pain than patients receiving diclofenac at day 7, but both groups reported similar amounts of pain after day 7. However, patients who received leech therapy reported less stiffness, better function, and fewer total arthritis symptoms through the full 91 days that the researchers followed them.
Patients knew whether they were getting leeches or diclofenac, and knowledge of the treatment may have influenced how they answered questions about osteoarthritis symptoms. Diclofenac is not the most common or most effective osteoarthritis treatment. In addition, arthritis is a chronic condition, but this study lasted only 91 days.
Leeches show promise as an osteoarthritis treatment. However, future studies must compare leeches (or their saliva) with various typical arthritis treatments over a longer period. Ideally, future studies would be designed so that patients did not know which treatment they were getting.

Civilization Is Catching Up with Primitive Tribes, but Lunda Gill Is Getting There First
Though she has been aided in her research by anthropologists at the Smithsonian Institution, where her work is currently on exhibit, Gill finances her own expeditions (by selling prints and painting portraits). Sallying forth by jeep, on foot or in a dugout canoe, she plunges into the wilderness about two months every year accompanied only by a guide or interpreter. Of necessity she travels light, carrying a backpack and a one-woman tent; a bag filled with brushes, oil paints and turpentine; a portfolio containing 30 to 60 linen canvases; and two weeks' emergency rations, including first-aid supplies and canned tuna. "If I lose anything," she says simply, "I'm gone."
Getting there is sometimes less than half the fun. Once, caught in a storm on a lake in New Guinea, she found herself in a sinking canoe surrounded by crocodiles. "But I've never been so overcome with fear that I wished I was home," she says. "Even then I knew somehow we were going to make it."
Such insouciance may be the key to Gill's success and survival. She never carries a weapon and places herself completely at the mercy of the tribes she paints. "One of the best things I have going for me is my vulnerability," she observes. "They have no fear of me." Once she arrives in a village she simply chooses a central spot and sits down. "I'm an oddity, and they are leery of me at first," she says. "Many times they will bring out the children to touch me because they have never been exposed to a white person and have never seen blond hair before."
As soon as she has the people's attention, Gill quietly explains what she wants. "At first they find it hard to believe that someone would come so far just to see them," she says. "Once they understand that I'm really interested in them, they open up. And after I get the first person in the village to pose, everyone wants to do it."
Since 1971 Gill's subjects have ranged from a Masai warrior painted at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro to a 72-year-old Siberian Eskimo woman whose face was a brocade of geometric tattoos. Each sitting takes from two to five hours, during which Gill makes a detailed portrait of the person's head and a rough sketch of the body, to be finished at home. She keeps careful notes of colors and textures, and trades earrings, balloons, harmonicas and suchlike for clothing and artifacts that will aid the final painting.
Gill sometimes spends more than a month in a village, and she finds it diplomatic to do as the natives do. Once, in Kenya, she was offered a sip of coagulating cattle blood by friendly Masai. Gill overcame her revulsion and drank. Another time she was taking a shower in a crude outdoor stall and looked up to discover a deadly poisonous green mamba snake. "Had I known it was there earlier," she says with a shiver, "I would have streaked across Africa."
Born in California, Gill graduated from Pomona College in Claremont and continued her studies in Florence. Later she established herself as a portraitist (one of her subjects: Burt Reynolds), then began painting American Indians. A magazine article on the mysterious Tasaday tribe of the Philippines sparked her fascination with vanishing cultures. Currently at home in McLean, Va. with her engineer husband Jim and their two children, she rediscovers that excitement repeatedly. "Each time I look at that canvas, and the person becomes real and looks back at me, it's an experience nothing in this world can be compared to," she says. "Sometimes I just jump up and dance."

Hope Enterprises has been breaking ground for 60 years, a milestone that was marked at its annual meeting recently.
For six decades, the organization has been uniquely shepherding mentally challenged people through lifetimes made so much richer through care and nurturing that quite honestly can't be found anywhere else.
People have gone through the Hope Enterprises system and lived lives of enrichment and production and value that they and their families could never have imagined.
But in the 60th year, when it might not seem possible, Hope Enterprises got better.
It took on the Children's Development Center and the partnership now makes it possible for the merged organization to take care of people from birth to death.
Together, the two organizations and their program offerings represent a product for disadvantaged people that may not be matched anywhere else.
And guess what? It's in our community.
Many people were honored at the dinner that marked Hope's annual dinner and all were incredibly deserving people.
But the meeting really marked a milestone occasion that stood as testimony to the value of Hope and its partner, the Children's Development Center.
Our community is so rich for the presence of the newly empowered Hope Enterprises.

By Cortney Lusignan
College and high school students have had a difficult time this summer finding work as the region's economy slowly inches towards recovery. It's been hard enough for young people to find jobs that pay, much less jobs that provide intellectually stimulating challenges and professional experience that will benefit them later in their career paths.
A group of two Rutgers biology students and eight talented students from Barringer High School and St. Benedict's High School in Newark are among the lucky few whose experience has been quite the opposite. They are working hard every day outside in the beautiful environs of Essex County Branch Brook Park, where they are expanding their knowledge of botany, geography, geometry and even astronomy as part of Branch Brook Park Alliance's initiative to create a comprehensive mapping and tracking system of the park's famous cherry blossom tree collection.
"Over the last several years, we have dedicated a great deal of resources to plant thousands of new Cherry Blossoms in Essex County Branch Brook Park. Expanding the number of trees has preserved this beautiful natural treasure that fills the park with color every spring. Mapping the trees will help us monitor the health of our trees so that we can avoid a crisis," DiVincenzo said. "Organizing this project is another example of the Branch Brook Park Alliance's stewardship and commitment to the Park. We appreciate the hard work of the students, who are making a significant contribution and gaining a greater appreciation for our Park," he added.
Students like Paul Oyefesobi, a 2010 graduate of St. Benedict's, who is attending Lehigh University in the fall, have been working for four weeks on the project, which is being funded by a $40,000 City of Newark Community Development Block Grant. They were chosen by the Branch Brook Park Alliance (BBPA) based upon interviews and recommendations from faculty members at their respective schools.
"These kids come to work each day with inexhaustible energy plus a real enthusiasm for learning. When you ask them what they're enjoying about their work, invariably they mention feeling good about the work being truly valuable," said Jim Lecky, Executive Director of the BBPA. "They have made a significant and valuable contribution to our ongoing efforts to create a modern, efficient and effective maintenance plan for the park so that its beauty can be enjoyed by residents and visitors for years to come."
Using sophisticated GPS tracking equipment and software, the students divide into teams to tag and assess the condition of each individual cherry tree, and to identify the coordinates of each tree using high tech satellite tracking systems. Details about the location and condition of each tree are fed into a main database to create a "landscape inventory," enabling increased efficiency and targeted care in the maintenance of this valued collection.
Essex County Branch Brook Park is home to the country's largest collection of cherry blossom trees in one location. The original collection was a living legacy of Mrs. Caroline Bamberger Fuld, who intended that her gift of 2,000 trees in 1928 would make the collection in Branch Brook Park rival that of the national display in Washington, DC's Tidal Basin.
After several decades without an ongoing maintenance and replacement program, the cherries dwindled to fewer than 1,000 trees by 2004, when the BBPA, a not-for-profit organization, who along with Essex County is committed to restoring and revitalizing the park, conducted the first comprehensive tree inventory in the park's 110 year history. County Executive DiVincenzo, BBPA and Prudential joined together to conduct a massive fundraising and replanting effort to renovate the cherry blossom collection. This comprehensive mapping and assessment project is a vital part of that effort.
Through an extraordinary public/private partnership, the Branch Brook Park Alliance and the Essex County Department of Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs work collaboratively to restore and help program the Park for the enjoyment of thousands of children and families who utilize it each year.

The key reasons why you should be including people who have a disability in your business.
Five important tips to promote employment for people who have a disability.
Disability in the Workplace: Part 2 – by Joe Dale, CIM
Corporate leaders have a role to play in promoting the inclusion of people who have a disability in the workplace. Several corporately sponsored initiatives designed to educate businesses about the value of including people who have a disability have been launched in recent years.
The following is the second of a three-part series on disability in the workplace. In Part One: The Economic Case the author reviewed the demographics of the Canadian workforce and highlighted the financial impacts of not increasing participation rates for this segment of the population and pointed out some of the benefits of including people who have a disability in the workforce.
For many years community employment agencies faced the daunting challenges of marketing their services and the people they represented to the business sector. For the most part they were ill equipped; with little marketing or sales expertise, few resources to apply to marketing programs and, for the most part, faced an uninformed and unreceptive audience. Business operators didn't understand disability or why they should consider people who have a disability in their workplace.
Early on employment service operators learned that, given this lack of expertise and resources, the best way to reach employers was with a business to business approach. But the challenge was in finding champions – business leaders of stature and profile – who understood the issues and why people who have a disability should be included in the workforce and who were prepared to take on this cause. There were a few early champions like Gar Bauer of Loblaw Companies. Gar worked diligently to develop strategies and programs to include people who have a disability in Loblaw's grocery stores.
In the early to mid 2000's a new awareness seemed to come to the attention of the business sector. Corporate leaders began talking about disability and accessibility issues. Equity departments and programs now included disability along with the other major equity groups – women, visible minorities and aboriginals.
And finally, in the last few years corporate leaders began to see a role for themselves in promoting the inclusion of people who have a disability in the workplace. The following is just a brief synopsis of some employer awareness campaigns – primarily those driven by the business sector – that are in play in Ontario.
The Honourable David C. Onley, O. Ont. http://www.citizenship.gov.on.ca/english/citizenship/honours/onley.shtml was appointed as Ontario's 28th Lieutenant Governor in September 2007 and one can't overlook its significance. As a person who himself lives with polio and post polio syndrome he represents both a role model and strong advocate on behalf of people who have a disability. His Honour is our most visible champion on accessibility and disability issues and routinely delivers a strong message about accessibility and the need to include people who have a disability in the workforce to business audiences, service clubs and community groups.
Partnering with the likes of BELL, IBM Canada, Tim Hortons, Oracle and a number of the big financial institutions, Toronto's Job Opportunities Information Network has sponsored a Business Leadership Network (BLN) www.joininfo.ca/about-us. As with most BLNs in North America and the UK, Toronto's BLN plays a leadership role in ensuring the ongoing hiring of people who have a disability and has a mandate to address education and awareness, accessibility, workplace accommodations and information about the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act.
Rotary at Work www.rotaryatwork.com is a unique partnership between Community Living Ontario and Rotary Clubs in Ontario. Through education and awareness presentations to Rotary Clubs and individual Rotarians, the needs and the benefits of including people who have a
disability in the workplace are identified. The project aims to persuade Rotarians, as community-minded business leaders, to include people who have a disability in their candidate pool when hiring and to champion this cause with their parent corporations and business colleagues.
Business Takes Action (BTA) www.businesstakesaction.ca is a Canadian Manufacturers and Exporters Association initiative aimed at promoting the benefits of hiring qualified people who have a disability to meet skill shortages. This program was created and is steered by the business community. Their mandate is to provide the tools and resources that employers need to remove physical and attitudinal barriers associated with recruiting, training, accommodating and hiring people who have a disability.
The Ability First Coalition www.abilityfirst.on.ca is a business-to-business partnership that aims to bring business people together to share best practices and experiences related to hiring and retaining people with disabilities. The Ability First Coalition provides resources for employers interested in making a commitment to hiring people with disabilities so that these they can find the organizations and the resources that can help them honour that commitment.
The Ministry of Community and Social Services' Don't Waste Talent www.ontario.ca/DontWasteTalent has two portals – one for employers looking to hire and one for people who have a disability looking for work. The Employer portal targets larger corporations and is dedicated to helping them: understand what hiring people with disabilities can bring to their business; learn tips to make their workplace and hiring practices more inclusive; and, connect with an organization that can help them find a qualified candidates.
The Challenge
One might conclude that, between increasing awareness and growing demand, the future looks bright for people who have a disability. Unfortunately, with unemployment rates at a staggering 49% and participation rates in the Federally Regulated Private Sector at only 2.7% *, it's easy to understand why people who have a disability might be growing impatient.
So why are participation rates virtually unchanged since 1995 and the unemployment rate more than 5 times the provincial average? One might just look to the some of the principle sponsors of these various awareness campaigns – large corporations.
In a recent survey of employment agencies only 8% of 1,400 job placements in the last 12 months were in large businesses (over 250 employees). Is it that small and medium sized businesses already know and understand the benefits of including people who have a disability in the workforce? Are they more flexible and better in tune with the communities in which they operate?
In the words of one business owner with a solid track record for hiring people who have a disability: "diversity is becoming a sexy word for human resource departments in large companies to show they are world class. Unfortunately that doesn't help the disabled unless something is actually happening. I recently visited a Canadian company, very well regarded, with a cool diversity program that had not hired any disabled employees because they were still "looking into it" four years after inception. However the glossy handouts were "awesome".

I HEARD recently of a young unemployed man who arrived at the Job Centre ten minutes late for an appointment and was told by the clerk she was suspending his benefit for a month as "punishment."
No amount of apologising and explaining would change the official's mind; she was stopping his payment and that was that.
I was both disgusted and dismayed to think our country has become so uncaring that a person in need can be so carelessly thrown into abject poverty, and for such a trivial reason.
I understand this case is far from unique; the Government covertly encourages its public sector minions to treat the unemployed like dirt, so making the claiming of benefit more of a trial than it already was.
No wonder so many thousands of people up and down the land are having to rely on food banks.
That a modern, wealthy nation like ours even HAS food banks should be an eternal source of burning shame for those responsible.
But I very much doubt that it is.

toyoDUH recalls 6.8 MILLION hunks of JUNK to rightfully regain the TOP SPOT on the recall front.
Absolutely pathetic if you really think about it. This is the second MAJOR recall announced this year.
OK - let's take a step back and think about how many hunks that toyoDUH has recalled globally since '09. I think I might have lost track but I can tell you that it's near FORTY MILLION vehicles.
Sentiment: Strong Sell
Hey look a TM basher! How do you do this on the GM board let me see.....oh yea....MORON.
It is starting to look like a quality car or truck can not be manufactured here in the US. Maybe Toyota should go back to importing their vehicles into the US. Even the parts that are in the recall were made here in the US. All this bashing of the American manufactures on all the recalls, maybe the answer is to move over seas or can America manufacture a quality product.

TUSCALOOSA, Alabama -- If fans heard any music beyond the squeals at the near-sellout Backstreet Boys show at the Tuscaloosa Amphitheater Tuesday night, consider them the lucky ones.
The obviously still-internationally popular pop group received one of the venue's warmest and longest ovations that seemed to last through most of their set, as the five-man act mixed songs from their latest album "In a World Like This" with the laundry list of hits from their multi-platinum-selling albums.
The group consists of A.J. McLean, Howie Dorough, Nick Carter, Brian Littrell and Kevin Richardson.
Littrell walked on stage with his son Baylee Thomas Littrell, who donned a No. 9 Alabama football jersey and sang a few songs to put the venue in the right mood.
DJ Pauly D, of MTV's "Jersey Shore" fame, then warmed up the anxious crowd for roughly half an hour with with plenty of fist-pumping along with his remixes of hits old and new, featuring Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" and Icona Pop's "I Don't Care."
Shortly after Pauly D exited, smoke filled the stage as neon lights bounced off of each other when the Backstreet Boys appeared and followed one another down some steps and launched into a string of their hits for a crowd game for just about anything they offered up.
The Tuscaloosa crowd even got a "Roll Tide" or two from the group members during some fan interaction and banter.
The Backstreet Boys are the biggest selling boy band worldwide, having sold more than 130 million records.

Does Drinking Reduce My Stress?
By Bob Barnett | 9/24/2013, 9:02 a.m.
Smashed and stress-free
Get drunk, on the other hand, and your body really relaxes. Totally. Stress, what's that? You're at the legal intoxication level, which the average person would get to after drinking, say, five 12-ounce regular beers in two hours.
At that level, "Alcohol reduces anxious-type responses, there's a dampening of your stress response and your heart rate, and you're inured to acute stressors, especially if you experience them when you're drunk," says Sher.
Got a problem with that? Sher certainly does.
"Unfortunately, the most reliable stress-reducing effects of alcohol occur at the most problematic doses, in terms of both acute harm and dependence," he says.
So let's get back to the nice pleasant drink or two with friends. That's moderate drinking, which has heart-health benefits along with psychological ones. The National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism defines "moderate" for men as no more than four drinks at a time and no more than 14 drinks a week. For women, it's no more than three drinks at a time and no more than seven drinks a week.
"If it's part of a lifestyle to enjoy food and alcohol, and you look forward to it, that's fine," says Carol Landau, clinical professor of psychiatry and medicine at the Alpert Medical School, Brown University. "It's an enjoyable habit, a lifestyle pleasure."
The dark side of drinking
How can you tell when you're drifting to the dark side? "If you're looking forward to a drink to relieve your stress, on a regular basis, that is a warning sign," says Sher. "There's a very strong relationship between having thoughts like, 'Alcohol helps me relax' and 'Having a few drinks makes my trouble go away' and alcohol dependency problems."
"Be especially careful if you have problems with anxiety," adds Landau. "If you have an anxiety disorder, you're more than twice as likely as the general population to develop an alcohol dependency." If you're taking meds, regular drinking is even more dangerous: Never mix benzodiazepine drugs for anxiety or panic disorders (Xanax, Ativan, Clonipine) with booze. Alcohol interacts negatively with lots of other medications, too. (Click here to see a list.)
Even if you don't have an anxiety disorder (or depression), it's easy to fall into the bad habit of using booze to chill out.
"I see a whole generation heading for their 30s who use stimulants to study, and then alcohol and marijuana to have fun," says Landau. "That's not a good pattern."
For women already in their 30s, she sees another pattern: "Her caffeine-fueled days are stressful, so she comes home stressed out and has a drink. That's not a healthy habit either."
Dependent on drinks
Once you start relying on alcohol to cut stress, you're in trouble. "When you're alcohol-dependent, you're chronically stressed at a baseline level," says Sher. "It's kind of an emotional 'hair of the dog' phenomenon. Part of the stress you're feeling is a consequence of the dependency." Read: You have higher levels of cortisol, the stress hormone, so you have to drink alcohol to get back to "normal."
The key signal is flexibility. If you're disappointed there's no alcohol and you're having trouble not drinking at a party or a friend's house, you likely have a problem. "That's a sign of dependency," says Landau.
Says Sher, "If you're using any drug as a primary way to regulate emotion, you're in big trouble."
So if you can drink moderately, go ahead and enjoy it. But if you're relying on alcohol to relieve stress, you're walking down a dangerous path. Look into other ways to reduce your stress.

this shirt is very 70's. I got the xs and it is loose fitting, but it still looks cool. I do think that the collar can be a wee bit smaller... definitely an attention getter.

I love the loop terry fabric in the retro briefs. I haven't purchased this shirt yet, but I have really been eyeing it up. I just hope it is long enough...so far none of the women's styles have been long enough, but maybe since this is unisex? A length on the shirt would be helpful...

Top prospects Moya, Thompson enjoy Futures Game experience
AKRON, Ohio -- A big smile came across Steven Moya's face when he walked up to the plate for the third time during the Major League Baseball Futures Game.
The United States team had made a pitching change to fellow Detroit Tigers prospect Jake Thompson.
"I started laughing when I saw he was going to throw to me," Moya said. "He struck me out, but it was still fun."
Thompson is ranked as the No. 3 prospect in the organization and Moya is No. 20, according to MLB.com. The two had never faced each other before the Futures Game. They also have never played on the same team, but Thompson's promotion to the SeaWolves changed that on Monday.
"I'm glad I came out on top and he didn't get me," Thompson joked about the Futures Game. "But it was really cool. It was fun because we've known each other for almost three years and never had a chance to play with or against him."
Thompson faced and struck out two batters in the Futures Game, which was held at Target Field in Minneapolis on Sunday. The game featured the top prospects in all of minor league baseball and Moya and Thompson were the only representatives from the Detroit organization.
Thompson picked up the win for the United States team, which defeated the World team 3-2.
"It's hard to describe being treated like that," Thompson said. "It was truly amazing."
Moya finished 0-for-3 with a walk in the Futures Game before coming up big in the Eastern League All-Star Game three days later. After striking out in his first two at-bats, Moya crushed a grand slam to right field and went on to be named the game's most valuable player. The Western Division All-Stars went on to beat the Eastern Division 5-2.
"The Futures Game was great because I got a chance to spend time with guys I've known from the Dominican and all over," Moya said. "It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The Eastern League All-Star Game was great, too. Even though I struck out twice, I was trying to have fun and the grand slam made it really fun."
Moya made his second All-Star appearance as he was also named to the Midwest League All-Star Game in 2012. Thompson was named to the Florida State League All-Star Game this season before being promoted to Erie.

Today is World Read Aloud day!
Today is World Read Aloud day, which is all about celebrating the power of words, especially those words that are shared from one person to another. Humans have a long and rich history of storytelling that dates back to well before we discovered written communication.
All through 2012, we're celebrating the National Year of Reading, which aims to inspire Australians to rediscover (or discover for the first time) the joy of reading. You may have heard that 2012 also marks 200 years since the birth of Charles Dickens, who is considered one of the greatest English-language novelists of all time.
We have recreational reading available for you at each campus library, and we encourage you to search the Library and find something to suit you. And it doesn't have to be Dickens---we have everything from Twilight to Truman Capote.

Field Poll finds highest support of gay marriage
61 percent of California voters approve
A new poll shows that nearly two-thirds of Californians now approve of allowing same-sex marriage couples to marry.
A Field Poll released Thursday found that 61 percent of California voters approve of same-sex marriage, while 32 disapprove. Seven percent said they had no opinion.
The results are only a change of 2 percentage points from last year, but it's the highest level of support for gay marriage ever measured by the poll.
In its most recent survey, the poll also found what it described as broad-based support of gay marriage, with the majority of most subgroups within the survey saying they were in favor of gay marriage: men and women, voters in all racial and ethnic groups, and Californians living in each of the major regions of the state.

Jea nutrition is awesome.
..........earlier this week I had a day so bad I thought I was going to die. I mean, really, no hyperbole. I had like ZERO energy, pain everywhere, shattered nerves, jittery, jumpy, tearful. Now I've been dealing with this for almost three years. Adrenal fatigue, burnout, whatever. It just sucks.
THREE DAYS AGO I added two things to my regimen. Mark's MASTER CONTROL DAMAGE FORMULA and PRIMAL CALM. Not an insignificant investment. (It's expensive) I've had the best two nights' sleep I've had in a year. Each day, I have increasing energy. This afternoon, I do not feel like a wrung-out dishrag the way I usually do at 2pm.
I just want to say that I hope as hell this isn't a fluke I keep getting better. MAN! I haven't had this much well-being in AGES.
