Diego, Nick Jr.'s action adventure hero, along with his sister, Alicia, and cousin Dora, are set off on an action-packed mission to get Baby Jaguar's growl back from the Bobo Brothers.

Show times and ticket prices are not yet set.The first free performance of the new year is set for Thursday, Jan 24 and features Incognito a one hour, solo theatrical presentation written and performed by Michael Fosberg. The program is at noon in the Pullo Center. Imagine discovering that you are not the person you thought you were. That you have a family, a history, and an ethnicity you never knew. How would this discovery impact your life, the lives of those around you; your vision of yourself and of society? Incognito is Fosberg's incredible story of growing up believing he was "white," then discovering he is actually "black." In this often funny, deeply emotional play, the audience makes discoveries of self; filled with issues of race, diversity, divorce, adoption, and finally, acceptance.
"Unique" is described in Webster's dictionary as 'different from others in a way that makes something worthy of note.' That may be the perfect description for the acoustic music of Fort Pastor coming to the Pullo Center on Jan. 29 at 7 p.m. This is a free performance. A blend of their Australian and American roots; charismatic acoustic guitars are pounded as often as strummed, with the odd didgeridoo, darabuka, djembe and mandolin thrown in to create an earthy, soulful whole. However, it's not just the music that separates this band. This band is a social movement.
Ardently expressing their views on war, social issues, and love within their music; Fort Pastor is out for social justice. So much so that they have created their own foundation called the "Social Justice Army (SJA)." Fans of the band join the 'Army' and commit to serving their community one hour a month. With local chapters of the SJA being formed all over the country, people are learning more about the issues their local communities are facing and are working to make changes. From homelessness to fair trade, Fort Pastor wants their fans to be informed of the problems this generation is facing. Their music serves as the inspiration and motivator for change. Fort Pastor has gained the respect of organizations such as Bose, Shure, Slide Didge, and G7th; the band tours relentlessly around the world. Even though Fort Pastor has shared the stage with the likes of Jars of Clay, Mercy Me, Bebo Norman, Christopher Williams, Maeve, Greg Greenway and dozens of others; they continue to build their underground Army for social change, one passionate concert at a time.
Top Secret: The Battle for the Pentagon Papers, a historical docudrama, comes to the Pullo Center on Feb. 13 at 7:30 p.m. The L. A.

Look at the career numbers for these three shortstops:
SHORTSTOP A - 19 seasons
.262 Batting Average
1,257 Runs
28 Home Runs
580 Stolen Bases
.978 Fielding Percentage
13 Gold Gloves
1 Silver Slugger
15 time All-Star
Second in Rookie of the Year voting
Top 10 MVP finish once
Top 20 MVP finish four times
.617 OPS in the Post-Season
Played in three World Series, winning one title, batting .173 in 21 games
SHORTSTOP B - 19 seasons
.295 Batting Average
1,329 Runs
198 Home Runs
319 Stolen Bases
.975 Fielding Percentage
3 Gold Gloves
9 Silver Sluggers
11 time All-Star
Seventh in Rookie of the Year voting
Top 10 MVP finish twice, including one MVP win
Top 20 MVP finish five times
.862 OPS in Post-Season
One World Series title, batting .353 in 4 games
SHORTSTOP C - 20 seasons
.285 Batting Average
1,231 Runs
185 Home Runs
236 Stolen Bases
.977 Fielding Percentage
4 Gold Gloves
3 Silver Sluggers
6 time All-Star
Fourth in Rookie of the Year voting
Top 10 MVP finish three times
Top 20 MVP finish six times
.992 OPS in Post-Season
One World Series title, batting .450 in 5 games
World Series MVP
Can you see any huge difference between the three?
Shortstop A had better speed on the bases and was rewarded most often for his fielding, despite being only a sliver better than the others statistically. He had no power or much of a knack for knocking in runs, and was considered one of the best players in his League the least of the trio.
Shortstop B is arguably the best all-around player, with the best batting stats, decent speed on the base paths, comparable fielding percentage, and a League MVP under his belt. He was considered one of the top players in his League five times.
Shortstop C is the weakest on the bases, but the best at bringing runners around, had good power, was the best of the three in the post-season when it counted the most, and was voted one of the best players in the League more often than either of the others.
The most glaring difference is All-Star appearances, with A and B each getting to the Midsummer Classic more than 10 times, while C made it six.
All in all, three guys who are relatively interchangeable. However, one of these shortstops was elected into the Baseball Hall of Fame on the first ballot; one took three years to get the nod; the final one is still on the outside looking in after 11 years.
Shortstop A is Hall of Famer Ozzie Smith, Shortstop B is newly elected Hall of Famer Barry Larkin, and Shortstop C is former Detroit Tiger Alan Trammell.
We Detroiters are certainly provincial when it comes to our baseball heroes, especially the 1984 Tigers, but take the names and uniforms away from the statistics and you can barely distinguish one of these players from the others.
Which just makes it even more frustrating to watch Ozzie and Larkin get the highest honor a ball player could receive while Tram received only 37-percent of the votes in this year's balloting.
Baseball Hall of Fame voters can sometimes be swayed by impassioned speeches and presentations from their fellow writers. You often hear stories of media members championing a player until he ends up in Cooperstown. It is time for a member of the Baseball Writers' Association of America to take up the cause of Alan Trammell.
Actually, it is far past time.

21 Dec 2009
So lately, I've noticed that it's become much easier to pass the ball. On 3rd or 4th & short, I've noticed that passing has become more effective than running just from what I observed in games. It makes sense. All it takes is one blocker whiffing a block for the RB to be caught in the backfield. Meanwhile (when passing), all it takes is one defender being a step slow due to the play action for a receiver to get open for the easy completion. Anyone know the exact stats on 3rd and 4th & 2 or shorter for this year?
Another issue is offense vs defense. Just looking at the teams with good offenses vs teams with good defense, it seems to me like offense has become significantly more important. Historically, passing efficiency (yards per pass attempt) have translated to the most wins. This year, it's worse than ever. It seems to me like defenses, no matter how great, need to rely on the opposing offense having an off day or else they'll get torched. Perfect example would be the GB (2nd ranked D) vs Pit game (10th ranked D). They had a combined almost 1000 yards. Where's the defense?
Another issue is 2 minute defense. Look at the NYJ vs Atl this week. The Falcons were held to 3 all game, then all of a sudden drove down the field and scored the TD. Defenses seem powerless in these situations (last 2 SB's). These comebacks aren't even any fun to watch anymore because they happen in about 1/4th of the games every week. I feel like shooting myself anytime ESPN analysts proclaim a QB "clutch" for coming back. Dude, even Jamarcus Russell had like two of them this year.
Am I over exaggerating or making bad observations? I know most people love high scoring games so my whining may sound stupid. But I enjoy balance. Anyone else notice these trends. Is it an effect of rule changes favoring the offense, or just better athletes playing offense?

Second Sunday of Great Lent. St. Gregory Palamas. God is Light12. March 2012 - 11:59
Our Holy Father, St. Gregory Palamas
Commemorated November 14/27, and on the Second Sunday of Great Lent
St. Gregory Palamas, one of the pillars of Orthodoxy, was born in 1296, probably to a noble Anatolian family in Constantinople. He and his brother went to Mount Athos in around 1318, and lived in Vatopedi and Esphigmenou Monasteries. Gregory also successfully persuaded his widowed mother, brothers and sisters to become take up the monastic life. With the encroachment of the Turks, he was forced to flee to Thessalonica, being ordained a priest there in 1326. Afterward, he took up the eremetic life at a mountain near Beroea, and eventually returned to Athos in 1331.
St. Gregory lived in very difficult times, for many heresies were creeping into the Church, and the Ottoman Empire was ever expanding, taking over Byzantine lands. In the early 1300's he wrote on the nature of the Holy Spirit, showing the errors of the Latin view while living at the hermitage of Saint Savvas on Mount Athos. He became known as a preeminent theologian early in life, due to his many writings and for his beliefs on hesychasm.
When Should Children Begin to Fast?12. March 2012 - 11:39
Take possession of your stomach, before it takes possession of you. —St. John Climacus
How early should children begin fasting? According to the teaching of the ancient fathers, a healthy child begins to fast once it no longer takes its mother's milk, that is, at around age three. (In ancient times, Jewish women breastfed their infants until they reached three years of age).
Along with the need to observe whatever degree of fasting, parents must also take care to prevent their children from forming a habit of overeating, or eating too often, outside of the times established for taking food—eating between meals. St. Theophan the Recluse gives parents advice in this regard: "A child should eat in such a way that while developing and fortifying the body and giving it health, he does not foment flesh-pleasing in the soul. Regardless of how young your child is, he must begin from the earliest years to stabilize the flesh, which leans toward coarse matter, and accustom it to self control, so that in both the childhood and teenage years and beyond, he can easily and freely control this need."

What Should Be in Every Communicant of the Holy Mysteries Who Received the Lord in Them; and Who Does Not Have the Lord Within5. March 2012 - 11:08
Homily on the first week of Great Lent
Our Lord Jesus Christ said, He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him (Jn. 6:56). Rejoice, O reverent communicants! True are the Lord's words, and so undoubtedly is the Lord within you after you receive His Holy, Pure, and Life-Creating Mysteries. But brothers, the Lord who came to dwell in us cannot remain without witness in this inward activity, just as He cannot remain without witness in His outward Providence—He … gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness (Acts 14:17). He Himself said, If any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me (Rev. 3:20). So—do you meet with the Lord, and the Lord with you? I pose this question to you because there is perhaps no one here among you who has not already taken Communion of Christ's Mysteries. Well then, has what should be the obvious fruit of this most glorious Mystery begun in you?
Homily On Wednesday Of The First Week Of Great Lent. On The Danger Of Hypocrisy2. March 2012 - 12:27
Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites.
Mt. 6:16
Beloved brethren! Our Lord Jesus Christ, Who commanded us to forgive our neighbors all their sins before we enter the podvig of fasting, also asked us to vigilantly preserve the fast itself free from hypocrisy. As a worm born within a fruit consumes what is inside, leaving only the outer covering, so does hypocrisy annihilate the whole essence of virtue. Hypocrisy is born of vainglory (cf. Mt. 6:1, 2, 5, 16). Vainglory is the vain desire and search for temporary human praise. Vainglory comes from a deep ignorance of God, or a deep forgetfulness of God, of eternity and heavenly glory. That is why in its blindness it insatiably strives to acquire earthly, temporary glory. It imagines this glory, as it also imagines earthly life, to be an eternal, inalienable possession. Vainglory, which seeks not the virtue itself but only praise for the virtue, labors diligently only that it might exhibit a mask of virtue before human eyes. Thus the hypocrite stands before humanity dressed in an outer garment of extreme deception: virtue—the essence of which he does not have at all—is seen on his exterior, while in his soul can be seen self-satisfaction and pomposity, because he first of all deceived and deluded in himself. He takes a sick delight in the vainglory that is killing him and in the misleading of his neighbor, and sickly and detrimentally delights in his successful hypocrisy. Along with all of this, he makes himself alien to God, for every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the Lord (Prov. 16:5).
The First Week of Lent29. February 2012 - 13:45
This fast is referred to as Great due to both its significance and duration. It is made up of the Quadragesima (forty days) and Passion Week. The Quadragesima was established by the Church in order to observe the forty day fasting and prayer which our Lord kept after His baptism when He was in the desert – before He began His ministry of preaching the gospel. After the holy Quadragesima, which ends on the Friday of the sixth week of Lent, comes the fast of Passion Week, dedicated to our participation in the sufferings and death of our Lord Jesus Christ, according to His command that "the days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast...." (Luke 5:35).

if they did, people would have wasted money buying the originals.
Now I know that alot of people, including myself, would love a wireless nunchuck (for reasons such as that it would look cool with even less wires and save having to plug it in every time for use), ,and now there are rumours that our 'dreams' are coming true, as according to an unknown source, Nintendo are currently in the making of such an attachment.
SourceAn unconfirmed source has revealed that Nintendo are currently working on a wireless version of their Nunchuck attachment for the Wii remote.
This comes after many complaints from gamers who feel that the dangling wire which links the two devices, simply distracts from gameplay, especially in games which require significant movement of the arms, such as Wii Boxing or Call of Duty 3.
The Wii Nunchuck gets its name from the martial arts weapon, the Nunchucks' because of the similarities in design; a chain/wire connects two heavier objects at either end. The wireless Nunchuck attachment will possibly undergo a name-change to make sense.
Theres no reason for Nintendo not to make future wireless devices for the Wiimote - a wireless reciever would plug into the remote in place of any wires linking the two. Communications between Wiimote and Console would be as normal. The downside to this is the added drain on batteries, though with Nintendos track record with their previous wireless technologies, were sure they will leap this hurdle.
Would you be interested in the wireless attachment? Or just put up with the meter restriction between each controller?
if they did, people would have wasted money buying the originals.
Why would it be a waste? id use originals over wireless anyways. screw using more batteries.Originally Posted by ottoman

Can you define these popular missing words?
Herra is another word for *rachet* or ugly looking. It is used to describe someone whom is gross
*Woah man that girl is so rachet*
*yeah man that girl is so herra I can't take it*

Yeast is a living, eating, breathing and reproducing organism. They consume sugar and water and excrete carbon dioxide and alcohol. Yeast is used in the production of alcohol. Buy some brewers yeast at a make-your-own-beer/wine store. You will have to get a large jug with a small mouth, a rubber cork with a hole in it that will fit in the mouth of the jug, and six to ten feet (your decision) of flexible tubing in which the carbon dioxide will travel. All of these can be found at the one store. You are basically reviving the dry yeast in the package so that they will eat the sugar you give it and produce carbon dioxide meanwhile. Ask the person at the store that you want to produce carbon dioxide for some house plants. They will give you what you need.
1. Fill the large jug with slightly warm water. Not hot, not even warm, just a bit warmer than lukewarm. The warmth wakes up the yeast.
2. Now add sugar to the water . One part sugar to every five parts of solution.
3. Empty the packet of yeast in the jug and stir.
4. After a few hours the yeast should be active and producing carbon dioxide. The production of carbon dioxide can be observed by actual bubbles floating to the surface.
5.The only thing you have to do now is maintain the life of your yeast population. Dump out some of the solution and add fresh water so that is does not become stagnant. Add a few teaspoons of sugar. Do this every week or two.
6.Theoretically, your yeast population can last for an eternity!

Make sure no politicians in cal have lead wheel weights on there cars. Then we can talk. No such thing as lead free. Copper bullets stuck in a tree will do lots more damage than a little lead. My advice use lead.
October 9, 2011, 06:26 PM
I can't help with the load data, but you could do like I did and move to a civilized American state.
October 9, 2011, 07:22 PM
Same question posed at the Marlin owners site on the 30-30 Monoflex. It should be a good bullet for those forced to deal with the politics of Kali.
Here's a link to the discussion.
October 9, 2011, 08:08 PM
A little on the Barnes website but only for 130 and 150 grn
October 10, 2011, 12:47 AM
Which company is making that 140gr bullet? Many times a major manufacturer will post load data for their new bullets. I know Nosler and Barnes do and so does Sierra when they release a new bullets that isn't covered in their current manual.

Some small good news for American low-wage workers: Walmart is increasing its wages at the low end. By April, no Walmart employee will make less than $9 an hour; a year from now it'll be $10. The retailer is also moving to improve its scheduling practices, a source of worker complaints.
Walmart's decision is a voluntary one, made for business reasons.
Nonprofits and the minimum wage
In the movement to raise the minimum wage, fast food mega-corporations make the perfect villains. But they aren't the only low-wage employers.
Washington is finally talking about increasing the minimum wage. Such a move comes with costs, but the benefits are far greater.
Fast-food workers think they deserve $15 an hour. If it looks like they are overreaching, that's just because they're so woefully underpaid now.
Dollars and sense
One of the characters in Marshall Jevons's mystery novel Murder at the Margin is a Harvard Divinity School professor named Matthew Dyke, who at one point complains about the exploitation of low-wage workers. Dyke declares that the employers' "profit-maximizing behavior" at the expense of the workers is unethical—as is all profit-maximizing behavior.

State auditor puts city on noticeVideo Transcript
FIRST TO UNCOVER MAJOR PROBLEMS, AT ALBUQUERQUE CITY GOLF COURSES. THE STATE AUDITOR JUST PUT THE CITY ON NOTICE TO FIX THINGS. TONIGHT, ACTION 7 NEWS REPORTER REGINA RUIZ SITS DOWN WITH THE STATE AUDITOR, AS HE EXPLAINS POTENTIAL VIOLATIONS OF THE LAW. SOUND OF GOLF THE MANAGEMENT OF CITY GOLF COURSES IS UNDER SCRUTINY AFTER AN ALARMING AUDIT. NOW, STATE AUDITOR HECTOR BALDERAS HAS STRONG WORDS FOR THE CITY OF ALBUQUERQUE. The city needs to just grow up and begin to manage these facilities as truly a public asset. CITY EMPLOYEES MAINTAIN THE GREENS. BUT, INDEPENDENT CONCESSIONAIRES MANAGE THE BUSINESS SIDE OF THINGS. AN INVESTIGATION BY THE CITY OF ALBUQUERQUE'S OFFICE OF INTERNAL AUDIT REVEALED MAJOR ISSUES, INCLUDING EXPIRED CONTRACTS BETWEEN THE CITY AND THE CONCESSIONAIRES. I am very concerned right now that some of these golf courses are being operated without a contract, which is a violation of state laws. THAT'S NOT THE ONLY POTENTIAL VIOLATION OF STATE LAWS. THE REPORT USES LADERA GOLF COURSE AS AN EXAMPLE OF DEPOSITING REVENUE LATE. SAYING DEPOSITS HAVE NOT BEEN ON TIME MORE THAN 50 PERCENT OF THE TIME. THAT'S A VIOLATION OF STATE STATUTE. Untimely deposits, which is a fraud risk. Any time that any entity takes their time in cash management or not timely depositing proper funds in it's proper accounts you have a fraud risk. THE INSPECTOR GENERAL WILL BE INVESTIGATING FRAUD RISKS. WHILE THE STATE AUDITOR SAYS HE WANTS THE CITY TO EXPLAIN WHY THERE HAS BEEN A BREAKDOWN IN COMMON BUSINESS PRACTICES. Right now I want to make sure that the City of Albuquerque and auditors give me enough information so we can determine why those awful situations occurred. Until we have that information, we are determining this is still a very high risk situation. This letter from the state auditor to the city not only demands things be fixed, he also lets the city know his office will monitor the progress. Back to you THE INSPECTOR GENERAL IS EXPECTED TO RELEASE A REPORT ON FRAUD ALLEGATIONS THIS SUMMER. SOME GOOD NEWS

Savory Buffet
Mr. K and I haven't really had the desire to eat Chinese buffets in a long time, with the exception of Tomi Buffet in San Jose which has surprisingly high quality sushi.
But for some reason, I've had this desire to revisit Savory Buffet lately. It's been years since I've been, but we kept passing by a big banner advertisement and then we got a coupon on the mail, so I made the executive decision for us to visit for lunch.
One thing we noticed was that the place seems to be under new management. The service seemed much friendlier. The food options though appeared to be the same as when we visited years ago.
On weekends, lunch is $10.99 per person. The buffet selection includes various cold entrees like cold seafood and salads. Then there are various hot food stations ranging from fried rice and lo mein, to stir fried vegetable and seafood dishes.
They also offer a few dim sum items, soups, and some kid-friendly foods like French fries, fried donuts, pizza, and chicken wings.
There is also a sushi station and a hot noodle station.
Desserts consist of soft serve ice cream, fruit, and various cookies and cakes.
I enjoyed the hot entrees the best, like the seafood vegetable stir fry, clams with black bean sauce, and steamed fish. I actually also liked the seafood udon. The sushi was pretty bad, with most of the rolls using a paste of some sort. The desserts weren't very good either. The soft serve was extremely watery.
Overall, I still think it's a lot of food for $10.99 and you can eat your money's worth, especially with so many seafood offerings. But after this visit, I think it will be a couple of years before I have the desire to revisit again.
Savory Buffet
7040 Miramar Rd
San Diego, CA 92121
12 Responses to "Savory Buffet"
We used to go here from time to time – did it have a different name when they first opened? But it's been several years since our last visit (food quality seemed to be going downhill). I almost never bother to get the sushi at Chinese buffet restaurants because they're usually pretty disappointing.
I agree with you. I ate at this restaurant long time ago, I didn't like it. Reading your post, I don't think they have improved any. I'm surprised they are still in business.
I like East Buffet, further east on Miramar. You should TOTALLY go next door to Woody's Burgers, by the way! EXCELLENT burgers, especially the Blue Burger. Right by Savory Buffet… mmmm!
Wow! They have zongzi! How was it? Ranch 99 is the only place I've seen it and it's not very good.
I haven't visited this place in over a year. Last time we went, the food was pretty bad. It seems like the still offer the same stuff though – I thought the beef noodle soup last time was really good. How was it this time around? And yeah, you can't really beat the price.
We were headed here last Saturday (after seeing the crowds waiting to get into East Buffet) and instead stopped at Sima's, which wasn't crowded for once (because it wasn't a weekday). Will be trying Savory soon (it used to be called "Crazy" Buffet…I think because it listed various cuisines on it's signage and served all of them mixed up together- taquitos next to won tons and sushi with the salad bar…)

The Do's and Don'ts with Dental Implants in Atlanta Georgiaby admin on November 15, 2012
Tooth loss is among the most common dental problems plaguing the reasonable and equally practical citizens of Atlanta Georgia. Apart from encountering pain from the extraction procedure, the patient who lost his or her tooth has to manage living without it. On top of that, his or her concerned general dentist has to determine a way to replace what was lost with a prosthetic that should help the oral cavity regain its full functionality as well as good looks. The most innovative method of replacing missing teeth is perhaps the dental implant treatment of 2012. Tooth implants are not like […]Read More »
7 Tricks for Atlanta Dentists to Alleviate Anxiety among Patientsby admin on November 5, 2012
Dentophobia is more commonly known in Atlanta Georgia as dental phobia, which is basically a condition characterized by a nervous reaction to any form of dentistry practice. As a general dentist, your primary task is to take good care of your patient's oral cavity by all means possible. However, you will find this to be a very great challenge when faced with a dentophobic patient or a person diagnosed with dentophobia. So how are the professionals supposed to handle their nervous patients in this case so that the latter could still reap the great benefit of healthy teeth and gums? […]Read More »
6 Possible Risks of the Dental Implant Procedure in Atlantaby admin on October 25, 2012
In the operating roomaround hospitals in Atlanta Georgia, the top general surgeons have always kept in mind that every procedure they perform has a risk—a lot in fact, taking into account all possible variables in the equation. The risks may be high or low, depending on several factors including the patient's overall health, the medical practitioner's competence, and the reliability of the pieces of equipment used for the operation. The bottom line though is that no matter how simple the work may seem, it will remain to be risky—even if it has 100% success rate in 2012. Even the dentists […]Read More »
Top 5 Factors That Can Lead To Dental Implant Failureby admin on October 15, 2012
There are numerous ways of replacing missing teeth in Atlanta Georgia. The best dentists in the city can offer a lot of treatment options for their patients, ranging from the most affordable all the way to the most expensive. All these procedures are naturally performed in the dental office since that's where the specialist keeps his or her tools. Perhaps the most innovative solution to the problem of losing a tooth is the dental implant procedure. This technology makes use of the biocompatible element known as titanium to serve as the artificial root of the prosthetic tooth. The titanium that's […]Read More »
Top 4 Risks of Implant Dentistry in Atlanta Georgiaby admin on October 11, 2012
A dental implant is comprised of three critical components: the fixture, the abutment, and the prosthetic. The fixture is commonly known by the general public as the titanium screw that will serve as the new root. The abutment is considered the link between the artificial root and the replacement crown. The prosthetic is the dental crown that will protrude above the gum line and should be as strong and as beautiful as natural teeth. Everyone knows in Atlanta that embedding foreign elements in the body is risky and dangerous. The same assumption applies to tooth implants—the procedure is lengthy and […]Read More »
Weighing the Costs and Benefits of Dental Implant Treatment in Atlantaby admin on October 9, 2012
Dental implant treatment is continuously gaining tremendous publicity in the American community, particularly in Atlanta, GA. It has been getting appraisals and criticisms alike from different sectors of society. Many people have apparently been encouraged to take the procedure themselves to see the difference, while some are unconvinced of the effectiveness of the treatment. What are the benefits of this new innovation and the associated risks? And as any consumer would ultimately ask, is it worth it? More than seven million (7,000,000) Americans are reported to lose a tooth or more every year. In Atlanta alone, the number of missing […]Read More »
Peri-Implantitis: A Unique Tooth Implant Problemby admin on October 5, 2012
Losing a tooth is one of the most difficult dental problems to manage for both the affected patient and the concerned general dentist. On the average, more than seven million Americans in and out of Atlanta Georgia are known to lose their teeth annually, yet only a fraction of them is able to replace what they've lost with the help of prosthetics. In 2012, the introduction of dental implant treatment in the long practice of dentistry may have sparked hope in the heart of patients, specifically the idea that there exists now a replacement tooth worth keeping for a lifetime.

The History of Dental Bridges of Atlanta Georgiaby admin on September 24, 2012
Millions of years ago, people thought that the world was just a flat structure of land mass surrounded by water. A millennium or two back, the uncivilized man believed that the earth is a perfect big circle that lies in the center of the vast universe. And then a couple of centuries later on, mankind realized that the planet he lives in is not alone; there are several others circling over and over again around the huge ball of fire called the sun. And then before 2012 struck, the nine planets that humanity has always known were suddenly trimmed down […]Read More »

Dental implants have become a lot popular recently, with the demand for the procedure spiking instantly and now steadily for the past couple of years.

4Key Differences between Dental Implants and Denturesby admin on September 19, 2012
Missing a real tooth can cause several problems for the poor individual, the first of which is pain. This discomfort pertains to both the physical body and the emotional state. Nobody in Atlanta can deny that tooth extraction is painful; likewise, a tooth that eventually fell off will be uncomfortable on the average. The lost tooth also hurts the ego and confidence of the patient since he won't be able to complete his smile any longer—until an adequate replacement takes its place. Through the years, general dentists and 2012 specialists alike have developed countless ways to replace missing real teeth […]Read More »

Make city nicer
June 4, 2014
People in Williamsport talk about trash at the basketball hoops as if it's the only littered place in the city. I've seen trash scattered all over establishments on Maynard Street....
RollingWithHusky, Thanks for the first hand account. Sounds pretty discusting but not dangerous. I'm not a big fan of the mayor's latest endeavors, but I like to have the facts straight. I can't understand why he's decided to allow little Timmy Miller to run the city.

Now we need a college course on picking up trash??? Seriously enigma???? LOL!!!! Have a Safe,& Simple day!!!-Scott
0 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
enigma, I visited the park on a daily basis walking my dog for a number of years. My husband and I picked up trash and clothing we found in the park. I can tell you from personal experience that the majority of the trash consisted of plastic drink bottles, wrappers and the pieces of clothing. We never encountered drug paraphernalia. We did find diapers under the playground equipment, the odd shoe or flip-flop, hoodies, t-shirts, etc., but not any beer bottles, no needles, etc. Now, on the Memorial bridge, the corner of Memorial ave. and Race st., in the alley between Blaine and Apple... ******s, hypodermics, lots of broken glass, graffiti, etc. Our experiences within the park do not square with what you're reading in the media.

Hey Mike, I think that the big problem with the litter in the park is that much of it was drug paraphernalia. That makes it too hazardous to have just anyone pick it up or to have children playing around. Often things are not as simple as they appear.

"The most important thing is to stop littering."
Most definitely. Carry a trash bag in your vehicle or leave an empty container in the cup holder until you can get to a trash can to deposit it all. Prevention is better than clean up. Take some pride in clean surroundings.

His problems started about seven years ago. That was when my son and daughter in law were doing drugs, fighting, and then divorced. He was seeing someone, I don't think he is at this time. No he doesn't have a medical condition. He was on medication for

Hi there,
Thank you for your reply.
I am so sorry to hear about your grandson's situation.
It sounds like your 18 year-old grandson exhibits symptoms of depression and behavior problems (trouble with law).
His depression and behavior problems may have a lot to do with his parents' problems and divorce seven years ago.
Indeed, he may have been exposed to his parents' drug use and domestic violence when he was about 11 year old.
There is a possibility that his depression may have worsen over time as he has had trouble with law.
He seems to shut down and keeps his big feelings inside as he doesn't talk to anyone.
That's a red flag for his mental health and future trouble.
He needs someone like a psychotherapist, a life coach or a mentor that he can trust and open up his big feelings and get guidance/support from.
I would advise him to see a psychotherapist to express and process his feelings and thoughts and get advice and support WEEKLY. A combination of psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy are considered to be effective to treat Depression.
Cognitive-behvaior therapy (CBT) will work for depression. If he has emotional problems with his parents, family therapy may be an option.
You may ask his doctor for a psychologist/psychotherapist specializing in adolescents that he can work with WEEKLY. Or you may call your insurance company and get a list of providers (psychologists specializing in adolescents and depression) in his area.
Or, you can search a licensed psychologist on internet- such as the PSYCHOLOGY TODAY website. Go to (http://therapists.psychologytoday.com/ppc/prof_search.php?iorb=4764) and enter your zip code and optional category of specialty such as Depression, ADD, and Adolescents. Read psychotherapists' profile to see if he or she has the specialty. You may also want to create your mental image of psychotherapist that he wants to work with – Male or female? To note, many therapists offer initial consultation for free. So you and he can see it as an informational meeting. You and he can ask any question and negotiate psychotherapy fee.
If he has no health insurance or seek a low fee counseling, you may call The United Way toll free # XXXXX (Dial 2-1-1)to find the community mental health centers in his area in which he can get counseling even without health insurance.
Also, he will benefit from attending a support group for teenagers with depression or family problems. You may contact a local hospital, a clinic, a youth organization and/or a church to ask if they have a support groups for teenagers. If you like to find a support group for him, check Mental Health America website section (http://www.mentalhealthamerica.net/go/find_support_group) - Find a group in your area.
In addition, eating a healthy diet rich in Omega-3s – Cold water fish, walnuts, flaxseeds, salmon, halibut, shrimp and tofu etc. may be helpful to his brain health and affective regulation.
I hope your grandson gets well with all available help and support from a psychologist/psychotherapist or a life coach, or a mentor, family and/or friends.
Please let me know if you have more questions or I have overlooked any. Warm regards, XXXXX remember to click the green ACCEPT button. You do not get charged twice; I will continue to answer your question whenever I am back online; my goal is to get you the best answers possible. If I can be of further help with any issue, just put "for Dr. Olsen" in the front of your new question. All the best, XXXXX XXXXX

Boat damaged in east Erie outside fire
A pile of trash caught fire Tuesday night and spread to a small boat parked in a driveway at a residence at 333 E. 21st St.
There were no injuries, authorities said. The fire was reported at about 7:43 p.m.
Fire crews arrived to find heavy flames, Erie Deputy Fire Chief Jeff Carroll said.
The fire, which also damaged part of a wooden fence dividing two properties, was under control within 10 minutes. Firefighters extinguished the blaze before it could spread to an adjacent detached garage, Carroll said.
Carroll said the fire started in the trash pile on the driveway and spread to the boat, which was damaged.
Neighbors told fire officials they saw children playing near the trash, then saw the children throw something and flee the scene, authorities said.
Erie Chief Fire Inspector Guy Santone was called to the scene.

The classic descriptions of Gold-blatt and of Page on the experimental production of unilateral renal hypertension stimulated vast and continued interest in the role of the kidney in hypertension. In recent years, most attention has been focused on atherosclerotic or fibrous lesions of the renal arteries or their major branches as causes of reversible renal hypertension. It is well to remember that a number of other renal disorders may be responsible for potentially curable hypertension. As far back as 1956, Homer Smith's1 review of the world literature concerning the cure of hypertension by unilateral nephrectomy showed that fully one fourth of 575 patients remained normotensive after nephrectomy. The renal parenchymal diseases that may give rise to unilateral or predominantly one-sided disease with hypertension include chronic pyelonephritis, tuberculosis, hydronephrosis, neoplasm, trauma, renal infarction, and radiation nephritis.
Also in 1956, Levitt and Oram2 reported a case of malignant hypertension that

Comments about Zirh PREPARE, Botanical Pre-Shave Oil, 1 fl oz:
I think this Pre-Shave oil does help reduce irritation and allow a smoother, closer shave, but at almost $20, I'm not sure if it's worth it.
I don't use this every day (too expensive) but maybe once a week, when I'm doing a thorough trim and shave, rather than a quick daily clean-up.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Quelsen, he's 24, and therefore he suffers from the disease of youth, which is also called "certitude".
I would have left Dr. Kruse' name out if I'd known it would polarize the discussion. Can we stick to the topic?
Anyway, for all the Calories In-Calories Out people, CT is a HUGE way we can effect 'calories out'. No?
[QUOTE=Sihana;751577]I heard of the disease of age, it is called, "I think I know more because I have lived longer. I have no proof, but I know more than you."
Back to topic, Thermogenesis did help me break a plateau this winter with just cold air exposure. I seem to have a hard time adopting it any other way however. I currently have a very hard time staying warm as soon as the sun sets, and would like to be able to be the little heating unit I used to be as a child.
What did some of you guys do in order to get yourself acclimated? For instance, how many seconds do you think a person should force themselves to stay in the cold shower the first time? From then on, how would you progress?[/QUOTE]
I started w/spot CT - using ice/gel packs on my torso all the way around - I kinda skipped the face/ice thing; but have considered bring that into play on the days I can't do a 3hr spot therapy session... I try to at least 1 night a week get in the tub for 30-40mins, using Croak's method of sitting in a small amt of warm water, and slowly add cold water...very easy... I'll do another one tonight...
showers didn't do anything for me...
Start w/the face dunks...then move to the bath; if you need to maximize time/efficiency spot CT w/Ice packs/gels
[QUOTE=gcbcb;751502]Maybe I'm not a good reader, but most of what Kruse writes strikes me as borderline incomprehensible. I feel like he might have some good points - perhaps even some research based opinions - but if this useful information is indeed in their somewhere, his posts (at least the ones I've read) fail to communicate it in a remotely convincing way.[/QUOTE]
Pretty much everyone who doesn't worship him agrees with you(whether neutral or against). Amazingly, he apparently is incredibly easy to understand in person.
[QUOTE=quelsen;751488]Uncephalized - I "think" you are an average healthy individual. Kruse may have nothing to offer you.
Kruse may also be rather scatterbrained in his approach but if you read him enough you realize his real goal is life extension and not health per se. Health is a precursor to life extension in his view of the world and if you happen to get healthy along the way so be it.
I have a freind who has known me for 15 years and he has seen me struggle all that time with uncontrollable weight gain. only in the last two years has he seen this stop and finally reverse.
Year one was HCG. i removed 130 pounds using that tool as designed by Dr Simeons. however something stopped working and I began to slowly gain weight again on a Paleo template. Enter Kruse.
Dr Kruse gave specific form to concepts that I was struggling with, that i had encountered but didnt have the science for and due to the general failure of MD's everywhere I kept running into brick walls for. I am not saying Kruse is right for everyone but Kruse pointed me in the right direction when i ALREADY HAD the data
What people need to understand about Kruse wont really come clear without a person like myself. ( i hat to admit this honestly) someone who can step down his transformer. there is possibly a better person to do it , but i do my best.
Understand the role of the Hypothalamus Pituitary axis in the body and you begin to get kruse. Understand the need for proper genetic DNA expression and you start to get kruse. Understand the degenerative actions of the SAD on those who are already compromised due to epigenetics and you get kruse.
If you are genetically normative, or if your parents and grand parents were, if your mom skipped the formula class and gave you tit then you may not need a word he says.
If you lucked into good clean living you probably dont need kruse.
IF however you missed that boat OR you are really hurting you need his thinking. and honestly a good Sisson and a watered down Kruse will probably leave a 18 year old male in his prime forever.
But he does sound bonkers if you dont need him. I for one am glad he is around to sound bonkers... it helped me put real clinical data to my n = 1[/QUOTE]
If anything Kruse advocates helps someone, I'm very happy for them.
What worries me is that he continues to add things faster and faster to his protocol, and his followers don't question it. In situations like that, it only take one or two mistakes on his part to do great harm. Hopefully that never happens.
I would strongly advise anyone that is following everything he says to read the opposing views *just as due diligence*. PH is much more, let's say academically rigorous, than here and there are some good criticisms of him over there. He posts there as well, and has a following there, it's not mindless or defenseless bashing. But there are a good number of factual errors, for instance, pointed out over there.
I agree that CT it does work. I currently live in Miami and have weight trouble even though I'm constantly sweating, however when I relocated to Toronto for a year, I didn't have to blink and the weight fell off. In fact I'm pretty sure it happend as soon as I stepped off the airplane and vice versa when I got back to Miami, I started to expand again.
[QUOTE=otzi;751412]So, how to implement CT.
Dr. Kruse believes CT is optimized when done while eating a totally ketogenic diet, as close to zero carb as possible. He advocates eating only protein and fat, most of this from seafood. He says this can be done seasonally, using CT and ketogenic diet from October thru April each year and eating starchy vegetables and fruits only in the spring and summer when they would normally be available.
Ray Cronise advocates eating a nutrient laden diet, high in nutrients/low in calories. Mainly from vegetable sources although he is not a vegan.
Both seem to favor CRON [url=http://www.optimal.org/peter/cron.htm]CRON - Calorie Restriction with Optimal Nutrition[/url] which is Calorie Restriction with Optimal Nutrition as opposed to eating the Standard American Diet.[/QUOTE] Cold makes you eat less...... I am not saying it but, evolution mandates it in cold. That is built into the biochemistry of the Ancient Pathway. If you call PH academic you got bigger problems. That place is paleo dogma central.
I think that just because you live in a cold place doesn't guarantee success. Here in Alaska, as soon as it gets chilly and the snow flies (mid-Oct), people tend to hibernate in their house, become couch potatoes, and eat more junk food. In the summer, my house stays about 68 degrees, but in the winter, we fire up the woodstove and it's 75-80 in the house. Everyone has a remote starter for their car, and we wear lots of warm clothes.
I started driving with my heater off and my truck cab stays in the 30's. I quit wearing a coat no matter what the temp unless I have a risk of being stuck outdoors for an extended time, but to and from my truck, checking the mail, running into the store--all done with no coat.
I have no proof of it, but I think that the slow transition to people spending a larger and larger proportion of our time in a man-made "comfort zone" (68-78* F with optimal humidity) might be yet another contributing factor towards the overall downward spiral of health/wellness.
And you're right, just being in a particularly cold (or warm) climate doesn't guarantee that one will end up with significantly more exposure to cold (or heat) due to the ubiquity of man made structures (and vehicles, etc) with either heat or A/C.

It definitely seems we were 'designed' by God or Evolution to endure Winter. What happens to us in our endless Summers? For one thing, I've read that our lipid profile (O6:O3 ratios) should change with the changing of the season, as most every other mammal, but humans don't because the body never senses Winter. And, if by chance the body does sense Winter, the diet is all screwed up from the SAD and it's a double-whammy on the metabolism!
From [url]http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18171691[/url] :
Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) can have strong effects on hibernation and daily torpor in mammals. High dietary PUFA contents were found to increase proneness for torpor, decrease body temperatures, prolong torpor bout duration, and attenuate hibernation mass loss. The mechanism by which PUFAs enhance torpor and hibernation is unknown, however. On the basis of a review of the literature, and on reexamining our own data on alpine marmots, we propose that effects on hibernation are not due to PUFAs in general, but to shifts in the ratio of n-6 PUFAs to n-3 PUFAs in membrane phospholipids. Specifically, high ratios of n-6 to n-3 PUFAs increase the activity of the Ca2+-Mg2+ pump in the sarcoplasmic reticulum of the heart (SERCA) and counteract Q10 effects on SERCA activity at low tissue temperatures. Therefore, high n-6 to n-3 PUFA ratios in cardiac myocyte membranes appear to protect the hibernating heart from arrhythmia, which in hypothermic nonhibernators is caused by massive increases in cytosolic Ca2+. The resulting reduced risk of cardiac arrest during hypothermia may explain why increased dietary uptake of n-6 PUFAs, but not of n-3 PUFAs, can strongly enhance the propensity for hibernation, and allows heterotherms to reach lower body temperatures, with associated increased energy savings. Therefore, at least for herbivorous hibernators, such as marmots, linoleic acid (C18:2 n-6)--the dietary source of all n-6 PUFAs--appears to represent a crucial and limited resource in natural environments.
