2 Precautions Diabetics With Dental Implants Should Observe
If you are diabetic and have lost one or more teeth, you may be considering dental implants. A dental implant is used to replace the dental root of a tooth. During an implant restoration, a titanium rod or screw is implanted into your jawbone and allowed to heal over the course of several months. Throughout the healing process, which is termed osseointegration, the implant fuses with your jawbone. This fusion causes the implant to become stabilized within the bone. In fact, a dental implant is as secured within the bone as a natural tooth. After the implant has healed properly, it can be fitted with an abutment and a dental crown to complete the restoration of the missing tooth. Although dental implants are generally successful for diabetic patients, there are some precautions that an implant recipient with diabetes should observe. Here are a few of them. Use Extra Gum Care Because you have diabetes, you should pay particular attention to your gums when performing your oral hygiene regimen. The gums can easily become inflamed by bacterial acid that is in the mouth. As you clean your teeth and gums, you are removing oral bacteria that release acid after feeding on leftover food particles. This acid is the primary cause of tooth decay, but it is also inflammatory to the gums. Due to your diabetic condition, wounds may take longer to heal. As a result, gum disease may progress more easily. If gum disease progresses to periodontitis, which is a severe form of the condition, it may result in dental implant failure. To ensure that your gums are cared for properly, consider using an oral irrigator in addition to traditional brushing and flossing. The oral irrigator concentrates a stream of water at the gum line and in between the teeth to help remove debris and massage the gums. The massaging action promotes blood flow, which can help keep the gums healthy. Maintain Proper Blood Sugar Levels Fluctuations in blood sugar can also impact the amount of sugar present in your bloodstream and mouth. When there is extra sugar in the mouth, there is extra food available for oral bacterial. This increases acid production which exacerbates inflammation at the implant wound site. To maintain your blood sugar, be sure to adhere to the diet prescribed by your physician. Also, it is important to take your medication regularly and in the proper dosage. Work with your doctor and your dentist to learn more things that you should do if you have diabetes and are receiving a dental...read more
Nip Gum Disease In The Bud With These Oral Hygiene Tips
Do your gums bleed a little when you brush your teeth or floss between them? Maybe you've noticed that your gums are sore or a little swollen. These are all signs that you're in the initial stages of gum disease. While gum disease can be serious if left unchecked, the good news is that if you catch it early, you can usually fight it off just by making some changes in your oral hygiene routine. Here's a look at some simple changes you'll want to make. Brush more often. If you're not brushing twice per day, it's time to make that a priority. In fact, if you can manage it, you may want to brush three times per day. Keep a toothbrush in your desk at work so that you can brush after lunch or some other time in the middle of the day. The longer you wait between brushing sessions, the longer any sugars from your last meal or snack will sit on your teeth, feeding the oral bacteria that cause gum disease. Brush your tongue. If you're not brushing your tongue, then bacteria that cause gum disease may be lingering on your tongue and quickly re-populating your teeth and gums after your brushing session. You can purchase a tongue scraper and use it to clean your tongue, or you can just get into the habit of brushing your tongue gently at the end of each tooth brushing session. Make flossing a priority. Nobody likes flossing. It takes too long and it's not easy to wedge the floss between your teeth. But if you want to get over gum disease, you really do need to floss daily to remove the plaque, bacteria, and food particles from between your teeth. If you have trouble remembering to floss, keep your floss in your purse or wallet so you can use it anytime during the day that you come across it and happen to remember. Use an antibacterial mouthwash. Finish each brushing session with an antibacterial mouthwash like Listerine. This will kill any bacteria that you have not effectively removed with brushing. If you absolutely cannot stand the taste or mouthwash or are allergic to the ingredients, try using a salt water rinse instead. It will also kill bacteria and soothe your irritated gums. If your gum disease symptoms don't fade within a week or two, talk to your dentist. They may recommend more aggressive treatments like antibiotics or deep cleaning.

Why Do-It-Yourself Teeth Whitening Can Do More Harm Than Good
The lure of being able to get white teeth in your own home for a few dollars and a few minutes of your time is compelling. But you may not realize the precautions that a cosmetic dentist takes when they do a professional whitening treatment. Their goal is your safety and to make sure that you get the best results possible. Here are some of the common reasons to not try whitening your teeth at home and to leave that up to your dentist. You'll Get Spotty Results If Your Teeth Aren't Clean Your dentist will do a thorough teeth cleaning before applying the whitening agent. They will scrape off plaque and tartar that prevent the agent from reaching the tooth enamel. Even if you do a good job brushing at home before you use a whitening kit, you can leave material on your teeth. This results in light and dark spots where the whitening agent was blocked by tartar and plaque. You'll Have Pain Where Tooth Decay Exists Even the smallest of pits and cavities in your teeth can cause a painful reaction when the whitening agent hits them. If the decay occurs near or under the gum line, your gums will become irritated. Your dentist will fill these small areas to make sure that you're comfortable during the treatment. Your Mouth, Lips and Gums Can Become Irritated By the Whitening Agent Your dentist uses a rubber barrier to hold the whitening agent on your teeth and prevent it from getting onto the soft tissues in and around your mouth. If your home kit contains a barrier, it will be a one-size-fits-all design that can let the agent escape into your mouth. Some kits don't have a barrier which puts you at risk of having your mouth irritated by the chemical. You May Need to Use the Home Kit Several Times Before You See Results The strength of the whitening agent in home kits is less than what your dentist uses. You may need to use several kits to see any results. You will see results after the first session with your dentist. If you try whitening your own teeth at home, you will likely have to repeat the process many times if your teeth are stained from food, medication or smoking. The do-it-yourself home whitening approach may be painful, time consuming and need to be repeated. You can avoid this by visiting your dentist and letting them brighten your teeth for you.

Two Lesser Known Reasons Dental Implants May Fail and How to Avoid Them
Dental implants have an up to 98 percent success rate. Still, no procedure is perfect, and these dental appliances can fail to integrate or become loose and fall out at a later date. Typically, implant failure is caused by insufficient bone or the development of an oral infection. However, here are two lesser-known reasons why an implant may fail and what you can do about it. Overloading The dental implant procedure is typically a two-stage process. The cosmetic dentist first puts the implant post in the empty socket and waits for it to bond with the jaw bone. Once osseointegration has occurred, the dentist places the permanent crown on top to complete the procedure. With increasing frequency, though, dentists are placing the permanent crown within a day or two of implanting the post. This is typically referred to as an immediate load procedure. This procedure reduces the amount of post-surgical care needed and allows for quicker recovery times. The trouble is that immediate loading can lead to a problem called overloading. This is when too much pressure or force is exerted on the implant, disrupting the integration process. Either the bone fails to form around the post or what little bone that has developed breaks under the pressure. Overloading is caused by the person using the implant before it's time to do so. It can also be caused by tooth grinding (also called bruxism). To avoid having a dental implant fail because of overloading, it's important to follow the dentist's aftercare instructions, which typically include avoiding eating on that side of the mouth or following a soft diet for a while. If you suspect you have a tooth-grinding problem, talk to your dentist about getting a mouth guard, which can help protect all your teeth from the damage caused by this issue. Allergic Reaction Although very rare, an allergic reaction to the implant can also cause the procedure to fail. Implant posts are primarily made from titanium. However, they may also contain traces of nickel. According to some research, approximately 3 percent of men and 17 percent of women are allergic to this metal. When a titanium post containing nickel is inserted into the mouth of someone with a metal allergy, the area may become inflamed or infected and unable to sustain or integrate the implant. If you're allergic to nickel, you should probably avoid getting titanium dental implants. Instead, talk to the cosmetic dentist about implants made with zirconium. This is a non-metal material that has been found to integrate with the bone just as well as titanium, though a little more care may be required to prevent the implant from fracturing. For more information about dental-implant failure and how to prevent it, contact a cosmetic...read more
Child Or Teen Have A Missing Tooth? Here's What A Dental Implant Should Be Avoided & What To Do Instead
If your child or teenager is missing a tooth, you may be interested in having them get a dental implant. However, dental implants are typically not recommended until the jaw bones have stopped growing. Here's why and what can be done instead. Periodontal Ligament Compensates for Changes The periodontal ligament is a membrane that attaches the teeth to the jaw bone. This ligament has tiny fibrils, which are fibers that adhere to the teeth and bone. The fibrils are made of collagen, which allows the fibrils to compensate for changes as the face changes with age and the jaw bone's growth. The periodontal ligament is what causes braces and other orthodontic devices to work. The periodontal ligament absorbs stress from chewing and biting. You can feel the affects of this when you clench down on your teeth when biting. Dental Implants Are Not Recommended Dental implants are attached directly into the bone, which means that the periodontal ligament is not involved. What this means is that the placement of a dental implant into the bone will not change as the child's jaw bone grows and the teeth migrate. Essentially, a dental implant in a child will block the ability for the natural teeth to move, which can lead to intense jaw pain and facial disfigurement since the jaw bones help shape the face. Since dental implants are placed directly into the bone, there is no shock absorbancy, which can feel strange when someone has just one or two dental implants. This feeling can make it difficult to eat and talk, which can affect a child's health and speech. This abnormality in the oral cavity can cause a speech impediment. Due to these reasons, your teen should wait until their jaw bones are done growing before they can get a dental implant. Or, they can use an alternative method. Alternative Dental Treatments for Missing Teeth For younger children, a missing tooth is usually not such a big deal. For a teenager, a missing tooth could be the end of the world in their mind. Since dental implants are not recommended for children, you'll need to find an alternative treatment to replace the missing tooth. One alternative is a partial denture, which is removable. However, your teen may balk at the idea of wearing a partial denture. Another alternative is to use a dental bridge. A dental bridge securely uses caps over two healthy teeth, one on each side of the missing tooth, with a false tooth in between the cap to fill in the empty space. For more information, contact Persona Dental or a similar...read more
Two Questions Concerning Veneers Addressed
Cosmetic dental issues can be a source of trouble for both your overall appearance and your self-esteem. Unfortunately, it can be common for dental patients to have a limited understanding about their cosmetic dental treatment options. There are many patients that may not understand the benefits of opting to receive veneers. If this applies to you, the following information may help you to make informed choices for your dental health. When Should You Consider Veneers? Veneers are thin shells of porcelain or a composite material that are placed on the surface of your teeth. This can be done to protect the tooth from further damage as well as to correct any gaps or other cosmetic issues. Typically, veneers are used on patients that have misformed or cracked teeth, these prosthetics can also be used when a patient's enamel is visibly worn away. While veneers can restore your teeth and offer them limited protection against decay, it should be noted that you will still need to have your teeth regularly cleaned by a dentist. If food particles and plaque get trapped between the veneer and your tooth, it can cause serious decay to develop. Are Veneers Durable? Some individuals may be hesitant about choosing veneers because they are concerned that these coverings will not be durable. Luckily, this is far from the case, and these prosthetics are designed to last for many years before they need to be replaced. Unfortunately, it is still possible for these veneers to be damaged by strong blows to the mouth or grinding of the teeth. If you notice that one of your veneers has become cracked or loose, you should schedule an appointment with your dentist. As long as this issue is repaired fairly quickly, it may be possible for your dentist to simply apply more adhesive to the back of the veneer as opposed to needing to replace it. Opting to have veneers installed can be a great way of ensuring that your smile looks its best despite your teeth having damage. Unfortunately, it can be difficult for patients to make the choice to receive veneers if they lack some important information about this dental treatment option. By making sure to understand the issues that veneers can address as well the fact that these prosthetics are highly durable, you will be in a stronger position to consider if this cosmetic procedure is right for your smile. Talk with a dentist, like those at Aaron G Birch, DDS PC and similar offices, for more...read more
2 Ways Fluoride Helps You Avoid Tooth Decay
Although some people try to find alternatives for products, such as conventional toothpastes, which contain fluoride, the mineral is promoted as helping avoid tooth decay for multiple reasons. Here are two of them.: It hardens tooth enamel. Fluoride aids in the remineralization of the teeth, making the enamel harder. Tooth enamel that includes areas that have been compromised due to exposure to oral acids can be repaired in the presence of fluoride. The chemical compound can coat the enamel and attract important elements back to the weakened tooth. As elements, such as calcium, are tracked it back to the enamel and combined with fluoride, a new tooth material forms. The new fluoride-based compound is more acid-resistant than the original, natural tooth material. Much of the decay that is suffered by tooth enamel is due to bacteria that reside in the mouth. Oral bacteria feed on the carbohydrate components of food that is ingested by a person. The digestive process of the bacteria is called glycolysis and results in the release of acid as a by-product of the process. The acid dissolves the tooth enamel, removing important minerals from the enamel. Although the minerals may remain in the mouth for a period, they are not automatically assimilated back into the enamel. Thus, the presence of fluoride in the mouth can be especially important in decay prevention. It is the demineralization of the tooth material that causes dental caries. It reduces the number of oral bacteria. The bacteria in the mouth can continue to feed as long as nothing interrupts their process. Still, in the presence of substances such as fluoride, the feeding process can be interrupted to help promote a decline in oral bacterial numbers. A study conducted to review fluoride's effects on oral bacteria found that fluoride cause the microbes to become more sensitive to the presence of acid. This sensitivity incites an interruption in glycolysis. The teeth can be exposed to fluoride in multiple ways, such as inclusion in drinking water, conventional toothpastes, fluoride mouth rinses and professional fluoride treatments. Professional fluoride treatments expose the teeth to higher concentrations of the mineral than other means of fluoride exposure. In addition, the in-office treatments are long-lasting. To determine whether or not a professional fluoride treatment is advised for you, schedule a consultation with a local dentist. He or she can assess your oral health to determine whether or not you need more cavity protection. Contact a business, such as a Mammoth Spring Dental Clinic LLC, for more information about...read more
2 Applications Your Dentist May Provide To Whiten Your Teeth
Many people develop dental discoloration over time. As their teeth are repeatedly exposed to pigments in the drinks and foods that they consume, their teeth become progressively stained. Regular toothpaste can be used to help brush away plaque and food particles that may be stuck to the tooth enamel, but it does not tend to remove deep dental stains. Improving the color of the teeth can occur through the use of natural teeth whiteners and over-the-counter whitening applications. However, the safest and most effective ways to whiten your teeth are still performed in a dental office by a dental professional. Here are two applications that the dentist may provide to help whiten your teeth: In-office Bleaching Dental discoloration can be bleached from the teeth. In-office whitening usually employs a gel or solution that is peroxide-based. The chemicals are designed to be safe for tooth enamel, while still effectively bleaching away dental stains. Foods that are deeply pigmented, such as blackberries and cocoa, may eventually stain the teeth. The result is teeth that display a yellow tint. Tobacco, trauma to a tooth and the ingestion of certain medications can also discolor the teeth, but the result may be a brownish or grey hue. In-office bleaching is usually effective for removing most discoloration that is associated with a food or beverage. However, it may not be as effective for medication-caused discoloration or from dental color changes that result from trauma. In-office bleaching usually produces visible results after a single application. In addition, the results of the procedure may last for years. Dental Veneers Teeth that may not respond as readily to bleaching chemicals may still be whitened through the application of dental veneers. Each veneer is a thin tooth covering that is bonded to the front of a tooth. The veneers conceal or hide the dental stains present on the natural tooth. For cases of extremely deep discoloration, such as that from years of tobacco use or from instances in which the discoloration is permanent, such as that resulting from a birth defect or dental trauma, dental veneers may be the only effective whitening option for a patient. In addition, patients who have chronic dental sensitivity may be prohibited from using dental bleaches, so veneers may be the best whitening alternative for them as well. To learn more ways that your dentist can help improve the color of your teeth, consult with a dentist in your area, like the ones found at...read more
How To Pick A Mouth Guard For Your Children's Teeth Grinding Problem
One of the major ways of handling pain from teeth grinding is to use mouth guards. The key question to ask yourself, however, is what type of guard you should get. There are multiple types of guards available out there that work for different needs depending on the particular issue of your or your children. Here are some examples of how you should choose the right guard. Preventing It in the First Place-Stock Guards If you already know that you're someone who grinds their teeth at night, one approach you can use is buying a stock guard from just about any sports store. Grinding your teeth at night can cause teeth sensitivity, and eventually damage to your jaw and teeth. If you put a guard in at night, this will ensure that you don't end up with as much damage. The advantage of these type of guards is that they are the cheapest type, and they are one size fits all. So, you don't have to put a lot of effort into sizing them for your mouth. This means that if you have a fairly average-sized mouth, this could be a good bet to jump out ahead of potential issues. Do It Yourself: Boil Guards If your issue with grinding is more of a problem, then it could make sense to get a guard that is more customized to the shape of your teeth. If you don't want to go in for a procedure for whatever reason, there are guards available that allow you to perform the customization yourself. These work by having you put the plastic guard in boiling water for a short amount of time. Then, you take the guard out using a wooden spoon, cool it in ice quickly, and then put it in your mouth and the soft plastic will conform to your particular teeth. You can then wear it at night to prevent teeth grinding and it will be more efficient and comfortable then stock mouth guards. This can also be a good option if you find the stock guard doesn't fit you very well. Serious Conditions: Professional Guards In cases where you're having a real problem with teeth grinding, it often makes good sense to make sure that you go into a professional. If you leave the problem for too long, it can develop into more serious conditions like TMJ. The most customized and effective guards will be created by a professional dentist. Overall, the important thing is to stay on top of the issue. If you're vigilant about your teeth grinding and prevent further problems early, then the won't develop into more serious conditions effective your jaw alignment later on. Contact a dentist that practices pediatric dentistry for help with choosing your child's mouth guards. ...read more
When Do You Need To Have Your Wisdom Teeth Removed?
Wisdom teeth are the teeth that erupt in the very back of your mouth. You may have between one and four wisdom teeth, or none at all. While not always mandatory, many dentists recommend having them extracted. Here are some common reasons to have them removed. Your Teeth Are Becoming Overcrowded A common reason to have your wisdom teeth removed is when overcrowding becomes a problem. Your mouth is already full when all your molars have erupted from the gums. Wisdom teeth are not necessary and take up extra space after your molars. Since you likely don't chew with them and they don't affect your smile or facial shape, there is no reason to keep them. Overcrowding of your teeth can eventually lead to pain in your jaw, as well as crooked teeth. If the wisdom teeth grow in pointing toward your molars, they can eventually cause your other teeth to start shifting, causing them to become crooked, and requiring orthodontic treatment. The Wisdom Teeth Are Infected Infections are also common with wisdom teeth, especially with tooth abscesses. A tooth abscess is a type of infection that occurs inside the tooth and deep within the roots of the teeth. You may notice a strong odor or bad taste in your mouth, along with a sore on your gum above the wisdom tooth. This is caused from the infection. The best thing to do is have the wisdom teeth pulled. It will get rid of the infection and help relieve the pain you are likely experiencing. You Have Jaw, Head, or Ear Pain Having pains not associated with an infection is also common with wisdom teeth. Due to the location and how they erupt, you might instead have pain in your ears, jaw, or head. Many wisdom teeth take up precious space in your mouth, leading to bite issues, which then cause jaw pain. Your head might hurt more often, or it may seem like your ears hurt, but you don't have an ear infection. They Are Hard to Clean Since wisdom teeth are at the very back of your mouth, they are naturally difficult to clean. If you find that you can barely fit your toothbrush back there to clean efficiently, let alone floss the teeth, you are better off having them removed. You don't want to get plaque buildup that could lead to a gum or tooth infection. This will cause pain and can affect your oral health. It is better to have them extracted now. For tooth extractions, contact an office such as Renovo Endodontic...read more

Britney Spears
Brit Brit is at Planet Hollywood bringing all of her "Baby One More Time" and "Slave 4 U" glory. And if you follow her on Instagram, you know she is in Britney circa 2002 shape, so you'll leave feeling really inspired to workout. Or possibly just envious of her abs but still with no real desire to exercise. Either way is fine, no judgement.
Jennifer Lopez
In terms of dance abilities and energy, it's hard to top J. Lo. If you're heading to Vegas, you have the chance to see her electric show in person. J. Lo is also at Planet Hollywood, so you'd have to strategize here in order to incorporate her show into your schedule if you're also hoping to see Britney.
Mariah Carey
It doesn't get much more legendary than Mariah Carey, and she's doing a run at The Colosseum at Caesar's Palace in Vegas. Watch her belt those high-notes live. How awesome would that be?
Celine Dion
The divas are in the house in Vegas as Celine Dion also headlines The Colosseum. Imagine seeing Mariah one night and Celine the next? That's the stuff bucket lists are made of.
If your childhood revolved around boy bands, the announcement that the Backstreet Boys are headed for a Vegas residency probably made you VERY excited. Nick Carter has confirmed that they're venturing out west to do a trial run. This would be the ultimate. Britney one night and BSB the next? It doesn't get any better.
The documentary is riveting. As Avery argues that he was framed by the very police who wrongfully convicted him the first time, you follow the court proceedings, hear about the evidence, and go back and forth about the man's innocence. If you're in the market for something new and highly binge-worthy, this is absolutely it.

If you haven't heard of it, Rent the Runway is a site that lets you borrow designer dresses for a fraction of the price. Wear the dress for your event, then put it back into its neat little bag, attach the pre-made UPS sticker, drop it in a UPS dropbox, and you're on your merry way. They handle dry cleaning for you.
I was amazed by the concept (and also a little skeptical) but I decided to give it a shot for my friend's holiday party. I was sick of the same three dresses I always wear, but also was not in the market to spend $200 on something new. I rented a Nicole Miller dress that retails for nearly $400 for just $60 bucks. It fit perfectly and helped to breathe new life into my wardrobe. This is what it looked like:
As an added bonus, RTR lets you order two sizes, which is perfect if you're not totally sure which size you'd need. There are also plenty of detailed reviews about each dress, so you can get a sense of which size would fit best based on what other users have opted for in the past. It was such an easy experience, I can't believe I hadn't thought to try it before. I'd definitely recommend it for holiday parties or New Year's Eve, plus it's something to keep in mind when wedding season rolls around again!

That means no phones/iPads/other gadgets at the table. Get everyone to enjoy some much-needed catchup time together. Hey, order dessert too.
Make some minor home repairs
It's finally time to repaint that room that's desperately in need, or update those kitchen fixtures that are way outdated.
Invest in your career
Is there a course you can take that will allow you to go further in your career? Some extra cash makes it possible to pay for it. Plus, this type of purchase is definitely a worthwhile investment.
Give to someone in need
Pick your favorite charity, then donate part or all of your winnings to that group.
Stock up on winter clothes
Those jackets that feel like sleeping bags are highly necessary, but certainly not cheap.
Buy an outfit you feel great in
Giving a nerve-wracking presentation in front of your boss just feels easier when you've got an outfit that you know fits you perfectly.
Go see your favorite band
Nothing beats live music, and seeing your band in concert is totally worth the ticket price.
Save it!
Crazy things happen. It's always good to have some extra cash stored away, just in case.

This got me thinking about some of my other favorite covers, some of which may actually be better than their originals. In no particular order, they are:
Ed Sheeran covering 5 Seconds of Summer's "She Looks So Perfect"
Mr. Sheeran takes this sugary pop hit and slows it down a bit in the way that only he can. Check it out here.
Kelly Clarkson covering Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful"
Talk about two women with incredibly powerful voices. Kelly Clarkson definitely does this song justice with her version of it. Watch it here.
Aretha Franklin covering Adele's "Rolling in the Deep"
It's hard to imagine anyone singing this song better than Adele, but Aretha Franklin kills it in this cover version of the song. Definitely give it a listen.
Lastly, this doesn't technically count, but I'd also like to include Nick Jonas performing a stripped down version of his own song "Jealous" with a gospel choir. I listen to it at least 30 times a day, and that's not an exaggeration.

After a decade of panic and greed, shut this broken window for good
On this day in 2003, Leeds United sold Robbie Fowler to Manchester City for £6million. The next day, they sold Jonathan Woodgate to Newcastle United for £9m. And that is how English football's first January transfer window was announced - by the joyous sound of men running around with their trousers on fire. It has been that way ever since.
This year is the 10th anniversary of England's transfer window, and as the national game prepares to sleepwalk over the cliff that is financial fair play, it is worth considering the impact of the last big idea to arrive as an order from continental Europe.
Has the transfer window improved English football? No. Has it increased loyalty? No. Has it made clubs more stable and less extravagant? No. Has it made the game financially healthier? No. Has it made football fairer? No. Has it seen off predatory agents in search of a quick buck? Has it hell as like.
Bargain buy: Kevin Keegan signs Robbie Fowler for Manchester City in 2003
Welcome Beck, David
Somehow, news that David Beckham has been training with Arsenal slipped out and on to the back pages this week.
'Beckham wanted all of this kept hush-hush,' said a figure quoted
in one newspaper as an 'Arsenal insider'.
Of course he did. How do
these leaks happen? It certainly is a mystery.
Harry Redknapp, manager of Queens Park Rangers, a club who have spent this transfer window in the last-chance saloon attempting to buy anything with a pulse that can put in a tackle, described the mood on football's mean streets as akin to gang warfare.
'Every agent is out to screw the other agent, it's a bit like the ice-cream wars in Glasgow,' he said. 'They're all at each others' throats. It's as if someone is going to shoot them. It's crazy.'
And when the game is too rich for Redknapp, a master of the transfer dark arts so sharp in his dealing that a rival manager, Barry Fry, once threatened to have him kneecapped over a free transfer at Bournemouth, you know these are troubled times.
Yet, the warnings were there from the start.
The reason Leeds had to cash in so dramatically 10 years ago was because they were on the brink of financial ruin and could not let the transfer deadline pass without guaranteeing a revenue stream.
Beginning of the end: Peter Ridsdale was forced to cash in on Jonathan Woodgate (below) to the evident frustration of Terry Venables

A year earlier, when deals could have been done at any stage in the season, they could have waited, perhaps set up several smaller transfers for squad players to tide them over. They would not have had to offer up the crown jewels in a panic. Once the transfer window was introduced, however, opportunity stopped knocking after January 31 and the other clubs had Leeds over a barrel.
They knew they had to sell. Woodgate's transfer, in particular, was the beginning of the end. It was the one that shattered for all time the relationship between Terry Venables, the manager, and Peter Ridsdale, the chairman, and relegation then became a matter of when, not if. Leeds were 13th on the day Woodgate left and 15th on the final day of the season. They dropped the following year, and have not returned.
The transfer window did not relegate Leeds - a reckless £100m losing punt on continued European football did - but they remain the perfect example of a club whose fortunes were made worse by its existence.
This window, indeed every window, is full of chairmen making a last roll of the dice. Newcastle have spent big, and hoped, Aston Villa have not and will have no way out if this policy proves misguided. QPR wish to throw money at a problem in order to resolve it, Southampton sacked a perfectly good manager so the new man could make last-minute changes to the squad.
With a full Premier League programme taking place this midweek, there may be fresh desperation for some by Thursday morning - what will be the policy of the loser of Fulham and West Ham, for instance - but with less than 24 hours to do business.
New man in charge: Southampton have called in Mauricio Pochettino to make last-minute changes
Why is this preferable to the old way, in which clubs responded to the flow of each season, bought and sold when appropriate and right for them, according to the individual needs of each company?
The transfer window has prevented very few of football's ills, and certainly not inflation. Fernando Torres to Chelsea was a classic January transfer window sale for a vastly boosted £50m, most of which Liverpool then wasted by spending an equally ludicrous £35m on Andy Carroll.
Without the imperative to get the deal done it is unlikely Roman Abramovich would have gone so high for Torres, or Liverpool for Carroll. The trading of players is a core part of football's business. What other industry places such a stifling time limit on its capacity to operate?
January flops: Fernando Torres (left) and Andy Carroll failed to live up to their hefty price tags
Wall Street has a closing hour each day, but only a lunatic would allow months on end when stock or commodities could not be traded. The positive ideas behind the transfer window are redundant anyway.
In 10 years it has been proven not to curb the activities of agents or prevent players becoming unsettled. The argument has been lost: yet still football presses ahead with its flawed fixes. Financial fair play will do more harm than good, too, but we'll still be stuck with it 10 years down the line because too many men in suits will not wish to admit they were wrong.
Protest: Arsene Wenger opposes the window
The transfer window was a concept imported from Italy's Serie A and taken up by certain chairmen in the newly formed Premier League in 1992. Terry Venables at Tottenham was an early advocate - he subsequently changed his mind - claiming that managers should focus on coaching instead of looking to the market to solve problems.
Venables also believed a transfer window would reduce the opportunity for agents to unsettle players. He was supported by Rick Parry, the Premier League chief executive, but many smaller clubs were in opposition, fearing that being unable to sell would harm their ability to control revenue flow.
The idea went away until 1998 when it resurfaced at a meeting of the most powerful European leagues and again it found support from then Premier League chief executive Peter Leaver.
'It would keep some control over the agents just hawking players around
constantly,' he said. Of course, clubs could have dealt with that by
just behaving honourably in the marketplace but, without rules, they
feel no obligation to act morally in business.
And now the irony. Leaver left in March 1999, UEFA proposed a universal transfer window in September 1999 and, by then, English clubs were opposed.
The Premier League were the last major competition to sign up to the scheme and only once FIFA insisted on it to stop the European Commission dismantling football's transfer system entirely.
'We have no alternative but to comply against our will,' said David Dein, vice-chairman of Arsenal, on the day the rule passed. And now it is enshrined. Resistance is futile. Arsene Wenger is one of an increasing number of managers that oppose the transfer window in its present format although, typically, he thinks there should be a limit on the number of signings permitted rather than a free market through the rest of the year.
Moving on: Daniel Sturridge left Chelsea to join Liverpool during the transfer window
Steve Coppell, during his time at Reading, was probably the most outspoken Premier League opponent of the window, but further down the league the objections become stronger. Fry, now director of football at Peterborough, calls the system a disgrace.
'The inability to sell one of your players is a restraint of trade,' he says. Gary Johnson, manager of Yeovil, said the transfer window was a hindrance to everybody. 'I cannot think of a single positive about it,' he added.
The divide, as ever, is between rich and poor. The strongest clubs financially can afford to deal at January prices in an emergency, but are likely to have squads big enough to ride the period out, if they do not want to pay over the odds.
It is the smaller clubs that are more likely to be threatened by relegation and therefore ripped off while shopping in a frenzy born of the need to survive. At the lowest level, the very smallest will be harmed by a precious source of income being placed in mothballs for most of the year once January 31 has passed.
Meanwhile, the one group of people who seem to be doing very well out of this licensed madness are agents, the very men the rules were intended to stop. So it doesn't work. And it has never worked. And yet the same regulators have got to wrap football in a new roll of bogus red tape, once more in the name of financial control. See where that gets us, 10 years on. Agent wars won't be the half of it.
And while we're at it
Given two years and unlimited access to people who could be guaranteed to tell them exactly what they wanted to hear, the Department of Culture, Media and Sport select committee came up with a report into football that left no crowd-pleasing cliche unturned.
A favourite was the demand to cede more say in the running of the club to 'The Fans'. And what fans might these be, exactly?
Flagging: Arsenal supporters unveiled a banner in their match against Brighton urging Wenger to leave his post
At Arsenal, for instance, would it be the fans who unfurled the banner on Saturday calling for Arsene Wenger to go, or the fans who wanted to fight them for doing it? Here's a news flash: fans are all different, some are fickle, some hugely loyal. Some think Brendan Rodgers is building the new Liverpool, others would have him out the door tomorrow. It is the same everywhere. One or two token punters sitting on the board are no more likely to strike a chord with 50,000 paying customers than the existing directors.
The best clubs acknowledge the role the supporters play as the soul or conscience of the club, and consult them where appropriate, but are brave enough to make the biggest calls in the boardroom. Anything else is the most desperate populism. No wonder it appeals to select committee types.
Jackett must have bottle to speak out
Kenny Jackett cut a conflicted figure after Millwall's victory over Aston Villa in the FA Cup. It was a great night for his club, but undermined by the bottle-throwing that forced linesman Mark Scholes to take refuge.
'We can't condone that,' Jackett began. Except Jackett did. On February 18, 2011, missiles rained down when Middlesbrough won 3-2 at Millwall. Chris Sarginson, the referee, was forced to ask both managers if they wanted the game to continue.
Reaction: Mark Scholes was forced to take evasive action after he was struck by a number of missiles
'From our fans' point of view, there was some fantastic passion and perhaps they felt aggrieved at one or two decisions which didn't go their way,' Jackett said after the game. 'I do like passion and enthusiasm and some of the decisions we have had recently have been tough.' He then added his get-out clause: 'But I'm not condoning it,' he said.
Yet Jackett had a chance that day to make a stand and offered only mitigation and excuses. Anything that is not stopped is encouraged.
Jackett was part of the problem in the aftermath against Middlesbrough and to just keep trotting out the same self-serving platitude is not good enough. If Jackett really wasn't condoning it, he wouldn't have to keep pointing that out.
Telfer's rant was arrogant and condescending
Ah, English arrogance. It must be Six Nations season again.
To hear the A-word bandied about by a chap with a chip on his shoulder is a sure sign that England might just be getting good at rugby once more.
Making his point: Jim Telfer branded England 'arrogant'
Strange, isn't it, that when the Celtic nations win they are brave, defiant and heroes all; England beat New Zealand and they're arrogant.
'Not as good as they think they are,' according to Scotland's former Lions coach Jim Telfer. 'Too pretentious, too arrogant and too condescending.'
He went on to say the Welsh are not easy to coach because they're lazy. How arrogant and condescending. Maybe he's really English.

The majority of JRPGs I've played in theory are never really that
bad, mostly because it's a pretty simple formula to begin with, but do
it in a unique way and not bore the living crap out of you is steadily
becoming more of a challenge. So, when the initial impressions came
out praising the game for going against the JRPG mold of turn-based,
(3-8) elemental/ cosmic gem collecting, big-eyed protagonist gameplay,
to say the least I was excited. Granted, the game is unique
considering it's a Square-Enix title, but everything people claim it
does well, I think it falls short.
The setting of the game is the first thing that stands out. Focusing on the High-fashion district of Shibuya where image makes or breaks the person is an interesting social commentary of the technological juggernaut that is Japan. The only problem is this idea is never fully utilized beyond the materialistic and selfish thoughts of random people. It would've been a lot more interesting if the characters were more vainglorious and selfish in their actions. The game's story is very shallow, leaving very little depth to the characters. The story unfolds in cutscene after cutscene of dialogue, and at times I found myself passing out holding the DS. The entire cast reminds me of the trite, angst-ridden poetry that I see in my old high school's poetry and prose zine. Neko doesn't get along with anybody, seeing that people are only concerned with themselves. Okay, that seems pretty accurate but they never delve into why he feels that way beyond saying he's tired of being hurt by people. It all just seems like a very vague, and ridiculous excuse for a character's apparent misanthropy. There's so much potential to tell a story of how covetous and cold we can be to one another. Then again I guess he has trouble finding the time to develop his thoughts when he's shopping for purple, large-collared sweater vests.
The combat is the only redeeming feature of the game, since it utilizes the touch screen in a fun, and interesting way. The plethora of buttons makes for a fun way of getting the bang for your buck. Each button has different properties and attacks that requires you to do different movements with the stylus to perform their function. Once you are set on a certain number of pins, there's really no reason to abandon them for the entirety of the game. All of the items in the game of different real brands and depending on the clothing you wear, there are different bonuses for wearing them in a certain area. It's compelling in theory, but it's really not too noticeable when utilized.
When you purchase clothing from stores your friendship level increases with the clerk, making items available and lowering prices. You pretty much have to buy as much crap as possible if you really want to have the advantage at all times, which gets the whole materialism motif across, but it just becomes monotonous, especially since there's no degree of customization or 'synthesis' of items or equipment. Which is something they did rather well such as in Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy X.
The music is a pleasant accompaniment... at first. After a while it became an unmitigated annoyance. Unless you liked J-Pop before the game you'll just find yourself trying to reason your pernicious thoughts for burning Shibuya's scramble crossing to the ground.
The title, to me, lets on that you have some degree of involvement as to how the story unfolds and concludes, yet endless cutscenes make it unbearable. It got so bad in fact that I found myself hurriedly going from checkpoint to checkpoint in hopes of reaching some point where the game completely flips ass over teacups and becomes less of a detriment to my gaming sensibilities.
The game has been prided on going against the JRPG mold, but to some degree it does, but not enough to redeem from being dull and annoying.
Give me feedback, if you care to. I'm interested to hear other opinions.

Diocese of Metuchen
The Most Reverend
Bishop James F. Checchio
Prayer is an act of love; words are not needed. Even if sickness distracts from thoughts, all that is needed is the will to love.
~ St. Teresa of Avila
Dear Lady of Tenderness,
We live in an angry and violent world. War and terrorism threaten us on all sides. We respectfully turn to you, O Mother of the Compassionate One. We beg your intercession for us, your suffering sons and daughters. Because of the intimate bond you share with your Son Jesus, our Risen Lord, we know you will hear and heed our prayer for help. Ask your Savior Son to pour forth His Peace into our minds and hearts so that we might become one truly holy family united and guided by His Holy Spirit.
~ Bishop John W. Flesey
Our Lady of Tenderness Hermitage
Our Lady of Tenderness Hermitage is the "desert space" of a diocesan anchoress of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Metuchen. I am a Sister living the eremitic/anchoritic life; an ancient form of consecrated life devoted to the praise of God and the conversion of hearts.
As a publicly professed anchoress, I live within the silence and solitude of the hermitage, humbly dependent upon God's grace. My primary ministry of prayer and penance is offered for Our Holy Father, all bishops and clergy, especially for Bishop James F. Checchio, Bishop of the Diocese of Metuchen, the universal Church and every societal culture throughout the world.
An anchoress is financially independent of the diocese within which she lives. I support myself through the creative work of my hands. Handwork sales help for the payment of personal needs; such as, food, clothing, health care, work supplies, etc. Kindly remember me when you are considering a gift for someone. Thank you!
Donations to the Hermitage are a financial help for all things pertaining to the hermitage; they support a life devoted to prayer and work, for the spiritual needs of all, within the silence and solitude of the hermitage.
Our Lady of Tenderness Hermitage is a New Jersey non-profit corporation exempt from Federal income tax as a public charity under section 501(c)(3) of the IRS Code.

The case is among the largest penalties proposed by the agency this year. "While I'm grateful that nobody was injured from the incident, I'm alarmed by the egregious nature of the violations we uncovered during our inspection," OSHA chief Dr. David Michaels said.
OSHA announced it has proposed $545,000 in penalties while citing Dover Chemical Co. for 47 health and safety violations, including four alleged willful violations, and has placed the company in its Severe Violator Enforcement Program, which mandates targeted follow-up inspections. The case began when a breach of a polyvinyl chloride piping system caused a hazmat release that temporarily shut down the company's Dover, Ohio, plant and an adjacent highway on May 21, 2012. No injuries were reported.
OSHA opened an investigation focused on Dover Chemical's compliance with the process safety management standards. "By disregarding OSHA's common-sense regulations, this employer endangered the health and safety of the facility's workers," said Dr. David Michaels, assistant secretary of labor for occupational safety and health. "While I'm grateful that nobody was injured from the incident, I'm alarmed by the egregious nature of the violations we uncovered during our inspection."
All of the willful violations involve process safety management. They include failing to correct deficiencies found in compliance audits, and process safety information not detailing the construction materials used for piping and piping system components. According to OSHA, 30 serious violations also relate to PSM, such as inaccurate operating procedures, inadequate information about the hazardous effects of inadvertently mixing different chemicals, not training employees about PSM, and not correcting deficiencies noted during equipment inspections.
Eleven of the remaining violations were classified as serious and two more as other-than-serious.
The Dover plant employs about 175 workers and produces chlorinated paraffin, additives for flame-resistant products, and other additives for the plastic, rubber coating, and adhesive and textile product industries. It has been inspected by OSHA four previous times during the past five years, according to the OSHA news release.
Dover Chemical issued a press release May 22 describing the event as an overheating incident in one of its phosphite reactors. "The reactor chamber vented smoke and steam and was eventually contained, and there were no injuries (within the plant), no explosions, no fires and no liquid spills. There was no damage to any of the other plant lines. The facility was evacuated for several hours, and the highway next to the facility was closed temporarily while the situation was under investigation. Most of the plant resumed production by Tuesday May 23rd. Dover does not expect any significant order delays as a result of the incident, which remains under investigation," it said.
"We very much appreciate the response to the incident at our facility by all local safety forces," company President Dwain Colvin said in a statement issued at the time. "The Dover Fire Department and Chief Volkert demonstrated the hours of training they have invested in emergency response and incident management paid handsome dividends. The ability to organize several responding agencies and surrounding area safety departments to coordinate contingent safety alternatives while plant personnel evaluated the situation is a tribute to Chief Volkert, Safety Director Tweed Vorhees and Mayor Homrighausen. Decisions have to be made quickly and instructions must be given precisely to protect plant personnel, responders and the community. We appreciate and thank all emergency personnel and agencies who assisted. The issue in the plant was handled very well by all of our employees. Our operations, technical and engineering teams acted swiftly and professionally to mitigate damage and to insure safety. Our safety personnel executed their tasks as planned and as a result no injuries occurred to plant personnel or responders. There was an obvious sense of urgency without panic. The situation was evaluated, several alternative solutions presented and the proper selection executed without further incident. Our goals are always to operate our facilities without incident, but to be prepared if operational issues occur. Our foremost response to any incident is to protect the safety of everyone on and off site with no environmental harm and mitigation of damages."

Raw Art, post-circus physical acts of beauty, grace and skill
Forget about circus. Forget about glittering costumes, caged animals and clowns with their old hat jokes. Circus can be alternative…This is the vision of Ukrainian director Taras Pozdnyakov with his Kiev-based circus project Raw Art, "post-circus," a response to the large-scale blockbusters, such as Cirque du Soleil and Franco Dragone. Acts focus on individual and small group performances, such as the award-winning structure-free gymnastic performance by the brothers Iroshnikov, and solo performances by Sergey Timofeev and Alexander Koblikov. There is a trio of jugglers, choreographed jumprope routines, ring work and much more on YouTube and Vimeo.

Seminal post-modern choreographer Sally Gross has died at 81: "Because that's what we exist on, is the breath. It's the inhale and the exhale that guarantees us that we're living. And it's only because we're alive that we can even take on the idea of performing." [more inside]

Los Angeles-based electronic artist Nosaj Thing has collaborated with with the artist/scientist, Daito Manabe (previously) and Creators Project (info) to produce a stunning and graceful audio/visual feast for his new single "Eclipse/Blue", which features Kazu Makino of Blonde Redhead on vocals.

Ce soir sera une bonne soirée!
On September 10th, to celebrate their initiation week, 172 communications students at the University of Quebec at Montreal decided to put on a show. After weeks of preparation, the costumed and prop-wielding crowd enacted an exuberant, complex, and flawlessly-choreographed performance of the Black Eyed Peas song "I Gotta Feeling" that sprawled through the campus's multi-story Judith Jasmin Pavilion... and they did it all in one continuous take (on their second try). The feat is just the most recent example of "lipdubbing" -- a video phenomenon where a single camera moves through a crowd of highly coordinated lip-syncers in a single seamless take, with the original recording dubbed over the finished product.

Ball Passing
Ball Passing is grounded in the basic act of passing a ball from one person to the next. Teams of participants, organized in groups divisible by three, stand in rows on bleachers and pass brightly-colored 4" nerf balls, creating complex visual and temporal patterns. The action of passing a ball is extremely simple, yet the organization of the work—the rhythmic patterns and physical configurations—is exceedingly complex.

Welcome to Healing Dynamics!
The world is full of metaphors regarding the facets of our lives. Consider sea glass, for example, which is lost or discarded glass containers that are weathering a storm of wind, waves and sand; conditions that will change it into something beautiful and strong. Each piece has its own history, journey and mystery. Healing Dynamics invites you to pause in the midst of any trials and tribulations to explore the possibilities for transformation!
Healing Dynamics – Integrated Holistic Services invites you to consider the unfolding nature of your journey. At times we need and appreciate a partner who can help us "read the compass" to get ourselves 'home', to help you adapt to one or more of the many life changes you might be going through and to live your life from a place of balance rather than feeling as if you may be teetering on the brink of burnout and chronic illness (dis-ease).
I cultivate individual client relationships, community group education venues and organizational consulting.
Contact me today; join my mailing list for upcoming articles, tips and techniques. I will keep you up to date with informative programs from reliable Complimentary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) providers.
Life is always changing; we are always changing. We live in a river of change, and a river of change lives within us. Every day we're given a choice: We can relax and float in the direction that the water flows, or we can swim hard against it. If we resist the river, we will feel rankled and tired as we tread water, stuck in the same place. If we go with the river, the energy of a thousand mountain streams will be with us, filling our hearts with courage and enthusiasm.
