Customer reviews
+ Location very useful for visiting Florence; Hotel quiet and calm, yet only 10 minutes walk from Duomo
+ Location /efficiency no hassle very straightforward
- Lack of tea/coffee in room
+ I pick this hotel because I used to live in Arizona, and it ended up being a really good hotel. I would stay there again and I would tell others about the hotel
+ Breakfast was a nice extra, room comfortable, staff helpful, good location
- Cost is high
+ The room was clean
- The rooms were too small for the price charged
+ courteous staff, good location away from tourist area but still accessible
We were pleasantly surprised by our nice room in this hotel. We picked it based on price, location, and Trip Advisor reviews, and it met our expectations completely. Plus our room was "pretty" accordingRead more to my wife, with the painted ceiling and other decorations. This was another tricky shower (very hard to keep water off the floor), not as bad as some of the others, but at least we had wash cloths here! The breakfast was okay. It was a bit of a walk to most of the attractions, but we didn't mind. We took a cab to and from the train station, but it wasn't as far as it looked on the map. The staff was friendly, especially the girl working during the day (mornings) who helped us set up a trip with the walking tours company.
location is good, breakfast is ok. There was construction outside of the hotel from 6am! The price is over average. One hotel employee seemed not very welcoming.
+ Location and price
I was NOT a fan of this hotel. Besides the fact it wasn't in my favorite location, the room was VERY small. Even smaller - the BATHROOM! The entire room may have been about 2-feet by 4-feet and the showerRead more was TINY. My wife and I stayed there three nights and could not wait to move on to our next hotel. The breakfast was also not as good as what we had in our other stops.
If you have other choices, I would suggest you select those in Florence.

A man was shot Tuesday evening after a road rage incident escalated, police said.
McCracken County Sheriff's Jon Hayden said detectives believe a road rage incident led to the shooting in front of a Reidland apartment complex about 7:10 p.m. Hayden said the investigation was evolving Tuesday night, but the department was seeking a suspect.
The victim's name was not released because of safety reasons, but Hayden said his injuries were non-life threatening. He was being treated at Baptist Health.
The shooting happened on Reid Circle near Reidland. The man was shot once in the leg with a semi-automatic pistol, Hayden said, and the shooter ran before deputies could get to the scene.
Hayden said the department gets about 10 road rage calls per month, but none had ended in such violence.

Camera Buying Guide: All you need to know to pick the best camera
Find reviews of the latest Casio digital cameras.
18 July 2006
10-megapixels in a compact camera? From Casio? The big number captures the headlines but does it cut the mustard?
13 December 2005
Casio has improved on the Exilim EX-Z50 with the EX-Z500. Cliff thinks it's a great little camera.
09 August 2005
Size matters! Especially when a camera as small as the Casio EX-P505 has more features than models twice its size.
08 March 2005
Casio doesn't just make watches you know. This slim compact digital camera has a five megapixel CCD sensor, a docking cradle, and a battery life that puts some cameras to shame.

Yes, that's right. My mom is totally worthless. Well, almost. She is very good at throwing the ball. And at scratching my bum-ola. And okay, yes, she does feed me and scoop my poo and pull grass out of my bum after I graze and it is dangling. But hellOOOOOOOOO..... my diary has been neglected for months and that does not make me happy.
What does make me happy, on the other hand, is this rain we're getting. Well, kind of. See, I do not like to make poop in the back yard during or after a rain, because my little toes get wet with icky poo water, but I do like to run in the park in the rain, because puddles make me muddy and pouncy, and that is a good thing.
That is all I have to say about that.
This morning, Dad snuggled me a little longer than usual and pet Wilbur longer than usual and Pearl let him pet her longer than usual. Then he and Mom and Auntie D loaded up the car with Dad's seabags and away they went. I have a feeling he might be gone a while.
Mom said he's going to live in a big desert for a year and that we will have to send him lots of puppy love, because he'll miss us! He's going to be in a pretty safe country, as far as countries in that part of the world go, so we're not worried about him at all (except for the part where bacteria and ickiness might take over his bathroom without Mom around- and his dishes might pile up in the sink so high that he won't be able to get out of his house), but we are going to miss him!
It's SO FUN to wiggle Dad out of bed every morning! I just wiggle and squirm and kick and lick and FINALLY he scoots over enough so that I can spoon with Mom. I'm really going to miss licking his armpits. I KNOW he'll miss that, too.
Anyway, if you could please send my dad some extra wags and licks, that'd be great! I don't know what he's going to do without us!
My diary has been neglected lately, because my transcriptionist has been paying more attention to her blog than to mine. TOTALLY unfair, if you ask me, but at least she's not taking time to write in BOTH of them every day. That would leave precious little time for important things, like walks, snacks, frisbee catching, belly rubs, games of fetch, and swimming in the ponds. ALSO, Mom has been bathing doggies part time at Levi's mom's grooming place, which means when she gets home, she wants to play with us instead of writing in our diaries. Smart of her, I think. Otherwise I'd have to pull out the Obnoxious Char suit, and you really don't want me to do that.

La Sepultura Biosphere Reserve
Partnering with Local Communities
Located in the Sierra Madre mountain range in Chiapas, La Sepultura Biosphere Reserve is one of the most diverse forest reserves in Mexico and the world. The reserve covers 413,253 acres and protects 10 of the 19 vegetation types in Chiapas, including cloud forest, tropical forest, and pine-oak forest. It is crucial that we understand the impacts of fire and the interactions among the fire regimes in these different habitats in La Sepultura and educate managers, policy-makers and community leaders on ecologically appropriate actions.
Addressing Fire Threats
Virtually all of Mexico's protected natural areas include a combination of private lands and communal lands held in trust for peasant farmers. There are restrictions on land use and land conversion, but successful conservation lies with the reserve staff's ability to work with local communities to develop compatible uses.
The Nature Conservancy has taken several steps to address fire-related conservation threats in Southern Mexico, including La Sepultura Biosphere Reserve:
- Convened the Southern Mexico Fire Management Forum in 2001, which brought together government officials, land managers, fire practitioners, scientists and fire experts for an unprecedented national-level dialogue about the ecological costs and benefits of fire in Mexico
- Launched an ongoing mentor/exchange program with Nature Conservancy fire managers in Arkansas
- Developed an integrated ecological fire management plan for La Sepultura that will help us begin to meet the needs of local people and identify the appropriate role of fire needed in the reserve's threatened pine-oak ecosystem and montane broadleaved forest
- Through the Latin American and Caribbean Fire Learning Network, created a network of trained, experienced fire management practitioners who will provide technical assistance to local sites and partners
- Designed a pilot project to capture local fire knowledge and blend it with scientific knowledge and assumptions to determine appropriate fire regimes and fire management practices for the reserve, while continuing to meet the needs of the local community.

Lemongrass-Barbecued Pork with Rice-Vermicelli Salad
Mai My Lin, one of the chefs Marcia Kiesel met at the Nha Trang night market, prepares an aromatic and pungent marinade for grilled pork with two quintessential Vietnamese ingredients—lemongrass and fish sauce. The real surprise here is Mai's zesty Carrot and Daikon Pickles, which are amazing with the smoky grilled meat.
Slideshow: More Grilled Pork Recipes
- Active:
- Total Time:
- Servings: 6
- Time(Other): including marinating
- 4 large garlic cloves, thickly sliced
- 3 large stalks of fresh lemongrass, tender inner white bulb only, sliced crosswise
- 2 large shallots, thickly sliced
- 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
- 3 tablespoons Asian fish sauce
- 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless pork loin, sliced 1/4 inch thick
- 1/2 pound rice vermicelli
- 4 medium garlic cloves, quartered
- 3 Thai chiles or 1 large jalapeño, thickly sliced
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 cup Asian fish sauce
- 1/2 cup finely chopped cilantro
- 1/2 cup finely chopped mint
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
- 1/3 cup water
- 2 large cucumbers—peeled, halved lengthwise, seeded and thinly sliced crosswise
- Carrot and Daikon Pickles, for serving
How to make this recipe
In a food processor, finely chop the garlic, lemongrass and shallots. Add the sugar, fish sauce, lime juice, vegetable oil and soy sauce and process to a paste. In a large shallow dish, coat the pork with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
In a large bowl, cover the rice vermicelli with cold water and let soak until pliable, about 20 minutes.
In a mortar, using a pestle, pound the garlic cloves to a paste with the chiles and sugar. Stir in the fish sauce, cilantro, mint, lime juice and water.
Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil over high heat. Drain the rice vermicelli and add it to the boiling water. Cook, stirring, until barely tender, about 1 minute. Drain the vermicelli. Rinse the vermicelli in cold water and drain thoroughly. Transfer the vermicelli to a large bowl, add the cilantro-and-mint dressing and toss well. Scatter the sliced cucumbers over the rice-vermicelli salad.
Light a grill. Lift the pork slices from the marinade, leaving on some of the flavorings. Grill the pork over a hot fire until nicely charred, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the pork to plates and serve with the rice-vermicelli salad. Pass the Carrot and Daikon Pickles at the table.
Make Ahead
The marinated pork and the dressing for the rice-vermicelli salad can be refrigerated overnight.
Suggested Pairing
This dish is sweet, tangy, fragrant and spicy all at oncea tough combination for most grape varieties, but ideal for an aromatic, off-dry (i.e., slightly sweet) Riesling. Though New Zealand is primarily known for Sauvignon Blanc, it's also an up-and-coming Riesling producer.

Literature and Theory: Advanced Topics
Study of a specific topic within contemporary literary theory. Examples include The Rise and Fall of Deconstruction, Theories of the Avant Garde, and Film Theory.
|Distribution Area
|1 course
Fall Semester informationAngela Flury
395A: Lit & Theory:Adv Topics: Desire in Film
This course approaches cinema through the lens of one of its strongest motivations: desire. Though cinema is our central medium, there will be ample reading in this course. We will study theorists and critics who have contributed to film criticism's long allegiance to Freud's ideas (psychoanalysis) as well as those critics who have sought alternate lines of inquiry into sex, gender, and desire. How, we might ask, has the medium of cinema shaped cultural imaginaries and paradigms of sex, gender, and desire throughout the 20th and 21st centuries? Please note: the course includes provocative and some explicit materials. We will cast a critical and inquisitive lens on expressions and constructions of desire in the history of cinema.

JE5 Brake Replacement
I purchased a set of brakes from a retailer whom I will not mention yet... Not until I know whether or not they are going to make this right.
I have JE5's. I purchased rotors from them and they do not fit on the front. I haven't tried the back yet.
Basically, the rotors are exactly the same size, 12.6" I believe. The problem lies in the hub of the rotor. The diameter is too wide so the caliper shoe won't fit correctly. it need about another 1/2".
They want my Vin, Date code from the door, and the OEM part numbers from my ac delco rotors.
I don't know the OEM #'s from my JE5's. Does anyone have these?
Re: JE5 Brake Replacement
My brake guy had to return one set of rotors. Evidently, some aftermatket cross-reference information is imperfect.
Good luck!
Re: JE5 Brake Replacement
I measured an OEM JE5 rotor:
12-11/16" outer diameter
7-3/4" inner diameter (back hub opening)
1-1/4" thickness

Re: JE5 Brake Replacement
Their website suggests 55096 for cars with 17" wheels which is correct for JL9, but their site should be corrected to offer the larger rotor for the JE5 performance brake upgrade (also with the 17" wheels). Be careful!
Re: JE5 Brake Replacement
I Now how this sounds, but, did you compress the piston
before trying to install the caliper ?
You did not mention that in your post .
Both the JL9 and JE5 are about (close)the same thickness !
Not a 1/2" difference.
Just asking !
Good Luck

Re: JE5 Brake Replacement
The answer is yes the pistons were compressed fully. After taking the first set of pads off, I discovered that the pad had a .25-.50" ridge along the top of the pad that the rotor had cut into it. That is when I stopped and cross referenced the rotor diameter of the JE5 (12.72") and the JL9 (11.92") and discovered that I had the wrong rotor.
Thanks Subsailor613 for pointing out that I did not mention I had completed that step. We all learn from our mistakes and that was one mistake I had made last time I changed pads

The only constant is change. There have been approximately 800 generations of mankind. It is estimated that we have learned more information in the last generation than the previous 799! No one person can know it all. Dentistry is no exception. In order to produce the optimum patient result, particularly in complex treatment plans, a team of specialists can provide the confidence and experience the joy that frequently results from treating these challenging cases with very successful outcomes.1
Interdisciplinary treatment in dentistry creates a relationship triangle made up of the referring doctor, the referred patient, and the specialist(s) (Figure 1). The value of this coordinated diagnosis and treatment approach is for everyone in the triangle to win. How can this be done? Is it worth the effort? After all, a patient can lose in the interdisciplinary process when they do not receive timely treatment, correct treatment, or when they do not receive treatment at all. Patients lose if they do not understand the treatment choices, and advantages and disadvantages of these options. A successful treatment plan requires that all the members of the interdisciplinary triangle agree on the vision for the patient, and that the treatment is sequenced and coordinated. This does not just happen; it is an intentional outcome. The general dentist or the specialist can lose by losing the patient, by having a treatment failure, or by losing self-esteem in the referral process. The general dentist or the specialist can lose when "inheriting" a problem that makes it difficult to make the other doctor appear competent to the patient.
|Figure 1. The interdisciplinary relationship.
How do we put ourselves in each other's shoes so that the entire interdisciplinary team wins? In order to answer this question, the interdisciplinary process can be divided into three key principles, six factors, and three desired outcomes from the generalist–specialist connection.
The patient has given trust to the general dentist. The general dentist must earn that trust and accept the responsibility to uphold it. In the interdisciplinary referral, the conscientious general dentist accepts the responsibility of referring the patient to a specialist, and recognizes the profoundness of that transfer of trust. Psychologists tell us that trust is transferable.2 As with the general dentist, the specialist must recognize and accept the important responsibility for that transfer of trust. In order to have a successful relationship, the general dentist, the specialist, and the patient must trust each other.
Over time, trust is built for the entire interdisciplinary network, including the referring doctor, the specialist, and the patient. The principle of trust needs to be a thinking and action process of the entire treatment team at all times. For example, the specialist is responsible for affirming the treatment plan and trusting that the team can achieve the vision that the patient has for his mouth.
Equality, Judgment, and Confidence
Often the general dentist and the specialist do not believe that the other is a professional peer. The generalist has a fear of exposing treatment inadequacies to the specialist because the specialist is going to judge them. The generalist believes this is a one-way judgment and that the specialist can judge the generalist, but the generalist is not qualified to judge the specialist. The referring dentist feels inferior to the specialist because the specialist may believe he has more knowledge in a particular discipline and the general dentist does not know enough to even know what to ask. It is like turning someone over to a person saying, "Take care of this person. I don't know how to communicate with you about what my concern is (fear), I just know something is wrong in this mouth, or with this tooth, or something needs to be done, and I do not even have enough knowledge to dialogue with you." The specialist, in response, does not communicate on a professional peer basis with the generalist because of a belief that the general dentist does not care about the treatment or is not qualified to understand the treatment. In a successful interdisciplinary relationship, this must change. The generalist needs to develop confidence and realize that generalists and specialists are professional peers, subject to each others' critical, professional evaluation.
Teamwork and Leadership
Teamwork and leadership are essential in the successful interdisciplinary referral. The general dentist, however, is the professional who knows the patient best and must take the lead in developing the treatment plan and its sequence and coordination. The general dentist must take accountability for each of these stages. The generalist needs to view the relationship with the specialist(s) similar to that of a team. The generalist is the quarterback of the team and the specialist(s) is like a running back or lineman who has very skilled talents, and knows his own position, very, very well. The specialist knows a lot about a limited field. The generalist facilitates the development of the diagnosis and comprehensive treatment plan for the patient with the assistance of the specialist(s). The generalist/quarterback coordinates the execution of the treatment plan for the patient, using the clinical skills of the specialist(s) and his area of expertise, and then manages the continuing care of the patient.
The "Give/Get" Relationship
The general dentist sees "giving" and not getting anything back. This is a problem when the general dentist sends a patient to the specialist and does not see the patient again, or does not get any input back from the specialist, or the specialist tells the patient what needs to be done without first informing the general dentist and getting agreement. If managed appropriately, the generalist does get a return from the specialist. They "get" a comprehensive diagnosis, an optimum treatment plan, and an interdisciplinary approach to create a predictable aesthetic and restorative result. "You can't treat what you don't see, and you won't see what you can't do."1 The true benefit of the interdisciplinary process is that the patient receives the most comprehensive treatment possible toward his vision of his mouth looking good and feeling good. The specialist also shares the responsibility with the generalist for the success/failure of the patient's treatment. The specialist and the generalist must both be responsible so that the "give/get" relationship has a balance to it.
The Specialist as a Role-Player
The specialist needs to be part of the general dentist's team. This is not demeaning to the specialist at all. When the specialist sees himself or herself in the team role, this can establish a meaningful relationship with the general dentist and the patient, and build an exceptional aesthetic and restorative interdisciplinary practice. When the general dentist indicates an interest in teaming with a particular specialist, the first meeting might be to sit down and have a conversation about each other's philosophy of practice and expectations. First, the general dentist says what (s)he wants and then the specialist says what (s)he wants from the relationship. It may be immediately clear whether they are able to function successfully together on the same team as professional peers. The specialist and the general dentist need to educate each other as much as possible so that each can develop a feeling of at least equality, if not superiority, for the comprehensive treatment plan. The sense of the general dentist as quarterback needs to be enhanced, and the education needs to be open and honest. If the specialist sees the general dentist doing something wrong, then the specialist should tell him or her. For example, "I think this is a problem. How can I help you? Here is what I have seen done." The specialist should be stroking the dentist's back for "giving" the patient. If a problem develops within the specialist's office, or the patient has voiced a negative comment about the general dentist to the specialist, the specialist needs to call the dentist and inform him by reporting the facts and saying, "This is what your patient is saying to me, ie, he is unhappy with your receptionist or unhappy with you, etc." The reverse is true if a patient reports to the general dentist that he is unhappy with the specialist. This is information without judgment.
A relationship with staff and each other affects and influences the patient's perception of value. In the interdisciplinary referral process, complaints by a patient should be celebrated because that tells us what is wrong and what needs to be improved. In this way, you can be assured that the patient is not playing a double-edged sword and complaining to the specialist about the general dentist or vice versa. Sometimes the patients play both parts against the middle. Do not play this game.
Communication Protocol
There is a substantial amount of time and effort in the process of the referral, information transfer, and tracking. The specialist and the generalist each must do his share in this networking process. There is also a necessary time commitment that is required for the specialist and the generalist to communicate about shared patients. The communication process between the generalist and the specialist must be handled with a defined protocol. The purpose of this protocol is to develop a logical and efficient communication for the generalist and the specialist. It is to the advantage of both parties to quickly and clearly define this communication protocol in order to reduce productivity loss and increase the opportunity for open and honest communication. Ultimately, the specialist and the general dentist need to see the very same vision for the patient as well as the sequence to achieve that vision. Once this point is reached, and each interdisciplinary member understands the needs and desires of the other, then the quantity of communication can be reduced. Until that point is reached, there is a necessary time commitment that needs to be met by both parties, even if it involves some down time in office productivity. Once each interdisciplinary member has identified what their needs, wants, and desires are, open communication and a lifetime interdisciplinary relationship are nurtured.
Multiple Specialists
If there is a problem that develops and a specialist needs help from another specialist, it is the first specialist's responsibility to go back to the general dentist and ask for the general dentist to refer the patient to the next specialist or to ask him if he agrees to see the next specialist. This keeps the general dentist in the proper position of quarterback, calling the signals, and coordinating the treatment plan. It is essential for all the members of the interdisciplinary team to understand that patients may feel psychologically "torn apart" when more than one specialist is involved. At this point it is essential that the general dentist gives the patient the confidence that (s)he is in control of the treatment plan. Otherwise, instead of "interdisciplinary dentistry," the patient experiences "multidisciplinary dentistry" where each specialist is performing his own self-serving procedures without any sequencing, coordinating, or regard for the vision of what is possible for the patient's mouth.
Educating the Generalist and the Specialist
The specialist needs to educate the general dentist as much as possible during the diagnostic evaluation, treatment plan development, and during the treatment itself so that the general dentist can develop a feeling of being a professional peer in the specialist's limited area of expertise. The general dentist's responsibility is to teach the specialists the "big picture" and to have them answer the questions, "What can you do for me in this patient's situation? What are the upsides and downsides of your treatment? What are the alternatives?" The general dentist must convey to the specialist the criteria that must be met to enhance the success of the treatment plan. This education must be open, honest, and nonjudgmental. If the specialist sees diagnosis/treatment that the general dentist is performing inappropriately, the specialist must say so. If something inappropriate develops within the specialist's treatment, the general dentist needs to tell the specialist. The key to the success and rewards of the interdisciplinary relationship is in honest communication.
Each person involved in the interdisciplinary approach must bring four crucial elements to the process:1
1) Time. The treatment approach initially takes more time in planning and will continue to do so until this process becomes second nature to all of its members. In the beginning of an interdisciplinary relationship, it often means that a group must meet to review the patient's vision, history, study models, radiographs, and intraoral and extraoral photographs.
2) Trust. Each member must be free to express ideas without worrying about hurting feelings or being a threat to someone else's knowledge or credibility. If the patient's vision is the driving force, then this process becomes easy to accept.
3) Commitment. All team members must arrive at a consensus concerning the treatment plan and its sequence.
4) Support. Help is required for the patient and the team members to remain focused on the treatment vision.
It is important to tailor each other's individual expectations and preferences. The specialist and the generalist need to collect data from each other regarding preferences concerning the following3:
•Do they want to be contacted before you start treatment if there is a problem?
•Do they want you to explain (in what level of detail) the need for follow-up treatment?
•Do they want your office to set up the appointment with their office for follow-up treatment?
•Do they want to develop mutual expectations regarding emergency availability and scheduling?
•Do they want to learn how to render emergency treatment?
•Do they want you to notify them if a patient has a problem during treatment?
•Do they want you to call the patient after treatment and see how they are doing?
•Do they want a call to review progress after treatment?
•Do they want you to call if there is a problem between offices?
•Do they want you or your staff to call or visit to explore how to work better together?
Other appropriate questions include:
•Could you tell me if your patient has any emotional or financial problems?
•Do you want me to inform your patient of any needed dentistry or do you want me to call you first?
•How can I keep you? What are your needs, wants, and desires from an interdisciplinary team member?
•Do you want this patient back?
•What can you do for me?
Specialists' Referrals to Generalists
The responsibility of the specialist is to be strongly supportive in the referral process. When a patient comes to the specialist, the specialist should compliment the patient about the general dentist. This is important because the patient may be uncomfortable about the referral process and feel rejected. In addition, the specialist has a priority to marry the patient back to the general dentist who referred the patient. It is the professional responsibility of the specialist to refer general dentists any "unattached" patients they may see. Many times the specialist has a nonprofessional social situation where people ask, "Who is a good dentist?" This is a wonderful opportunity for the specialist to give them the name of one of their top dentists in their interdisciplinary network.
The Restorative Dentist Wins
In many ways the specialist can be the general dentist's least paid assistant, educator, and motivator! The specialist has the opportunity to constantly focus on the total possibility or vision for a patient and his mouth. The question, "If you could change anything in your mouth, what would it be if it did not require time and money?" can be repeated throughout the specialist's treatment. A patient will always act out of his own self-interest, and if he is educated about the benefit of improving his mouth, he will act out of this interest.4 The specialist has the opportunity to lead the patient toward comprehensive aesthetic and restorative treatment.
The specialist, therefore, can help build the quality of the restorative dentist's practice. Then, everyone wins: general dentists, specialists, and most importantly, the patient.
The Patient Wins
|Figures 2 and 3. Coordinated and properly sequenced interdisciplinary dentistry resulted in this patient experiencing a more positive self-image.
In any given interdisciplinary treatment plan, one of the team members may not have the sufficient skill to produce the desired outcome. This could be either the generalist or the specialist. If all the principles and all the previous factors have been honored, then this gives the possibility that the best team can be in place for this particular patient. This may mean confronting either the generalist or the specialist. For example, if the specialist believes that the treatment plan is too complex for the skill, care, and judgment of the generalist, then it is the specialist's responsibility to call the general dentist and suggest a prosthodontist, for example. Again, this is an unemotional judgment call and consistent with the vision of doing what is best for the patient. If done correctly, the general dentist will usually welcome this recommendation with relief. For most of us, nothing drains energy more than feeling or actually being inadequate, having inadequate capacity to successfully treat a patient. Specialists in an interdisciplinary team should not be immune to this process either. Even among specialists there are those who have a particularly high skill level for a particular procedure and, in the name of what is possible for the patient and in order to achieve the vision, it is sometimes a necessary and appropriate step to call them into the treatment plan. Again, it all comes down to honest communication. It is not about the treatment team member, it is about the vision. Once the vision of ideally treating every patient who has the values of ideal treatment is realized, then everything else neatly falls into place (Figures 2 and 3).
The interdisciplinary referral process does not just happen. It requires vision, commitment, time, and energy, and putting the patient's needs, wants, and desires before dentists' needs, wants, and desires. The question is, "Is it worth it?" The members of the Northwest Network for Dental Excellence, in which we participate, have been involved with this question for 17 years. Without exception, each of the members would suggest that interdisciplinary aesthetic and restorative dentistry has enabled us to all experience being at the top of our "dental" game. This has benefit for the dentists that we have had the privilege to serve, the patients that we have treated, and the joy and satisfaction of day-in and day-out exceptional dentistry.

Dartmouth's Schram a Lowe's Finalist
Thursday, February 05, 2009
Courtesy of Dartmouth Athletic Communications
Kansas City, Mo. - Dartmouth women's basketball senior co-captain Koren Schram (Batesville, Ark.) has been selected as one of 30 national finalists for the prestigious 2008-09 Lowe's Senior CLASS Award.
Schram made the first cut as one of the nation's top 30 senior male and female college basketball players who exemplify a total student-athlete. The award - presented annually to the NCAA Division I Student-Athlete of the Year in eight sports - focuses on the "Four C's" of classroom, character, community and competition.
A senior guard, Schram is the only player from the Ivy League among both the women's and men's sides. Of the 30 female candidates, all hail from different colleges and 18 conferences are represented.
A first team All-Ivy selection in 2007-08 and honorable mention All-Ivy honoree in 2006-07, Schram currently leads Dartmouth with 13.7 points per game along with 5.1 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game. After injuries limited her freshman year, Schram persevered, bursting onto the Ivy scene to average 10.6 points per game as a sophomore. Last season, she led Dartmouth to its 16th Ivy Championship and the second of her career. The Big Green has made the postseason in each of her three seasons.
Off the court, Schram is a prime example of the best in college athletics. A psychology/pre-med major, she has taken advantage of Dartmouth's quarter-system to further her studies in medicine. This past spring and summer to interned at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center and New York Presbyterian, respectively, assisting with medical research. At Dartmouth, she is a well-respected and popular member of the community and a positive role model for local youth.
An acronym for Celebrating Loyalty and Achievement for Staying in School, the Senior Class Award was launched during the 2001-02 season to honor the attributes of college basketball seniors who remain committed to their university and pursue the many rewards that a senior season and complete college education brings.
From the list of 30 candidates for each gender, a national media committee will select 10 finalists for the Lowe's Senior CLASS Award in January 2009. Those ten names will be placed on the official ballot for a nationwide vote during the NCAA Tournament in March. Fan balloting will be coupled with votes from coaches and media to determine the male and female recipients.
The official release can be viewed at the Senior CLASS website.
The full list of candidate profiles including Schram's is viewable here.
Lowe's, an official corporate partner of the NCAA, will award winners with trophies during the respective men's and women's NCAA Final Four weekends. Now in its seventh year for basketball, the award has developed into the nation's premier tribute for college seniors. Since originating with basketball, Lowe's has expanded the award to include a total of eight NCAA sports.
The award was conceived by sportscaster Dick Enberg, who continues to serve as Honorary Chairman. It was inspired by the remarkable story of former Duke University basketball player Shane Battier, who could have been an NBA lottery pick but returned to college for his senior season and led the Blue Devils to the National Championship in 2001.
Recipients of the women's award include Sue Bird of Connecticut (2002), LaToya Thomas of Mississippi State (2003), Alana Beard of Duke (2004), Kendra Wecker of Kansas State (2005), Seimone Augustus of LSU (2006), Alison Bales of Duke (2007) and Candice Wiggins of Stanford (2008).

Recent Tasting Notes
When I first got this, I was a really big fan. Over time, I've become less and less interested in it. It's good for a no caffeine jasmine option, but I'll be ready to switch back to regular jasmine tea once I'm back in regular tea drinking.
However, I do like it more than most rooibos!
Rooibos and jasmine just don't seem destined to go together—-I like rooibos, but it's more of a roasty, hearty taste that's good with vanilla and chocolate and stout flavorings, not something delicate like jasmine.
This is the only large tin of tea I have from Adagio. Everything else I have is sample size. I ordered it when I was just starting out with this baby thing and looking for a way to maintain my tea habit without caffeine.
This one was a winner for me because it was so similar to green jasmine. The jasmine really stands out! So I steep it a lot like a green tea… lower water temperature, less time, and it really is quite jasminesque. I love it!
Tried to replicate the sitar experience from earlier this morning… just clicking noises for a few seconds. Next up: vanilla again to see if I can replicate. The water was probably a slightly different temperature (hotter) this time, so that might be a factor, too.
This tea has everything I love: Soothing chamomile, refreshing mint, and satisfying rooibos. The flavors kind of dance around like there is a party in my mouth, but no one flavor really over powers the others. It is well balanced and unlike anything I've tasted in a tea.

Mage Knight: Apocalypse - Multiplayer Q&A @ GameSpot
by Dhruin, 2006-07-18 08:01:00GameSpot talks to Mage Knight: Apocalypse Senior producer David Georgeson about multiplayer, coop and related gameplay issues:
GameSpot: We understand that the game will offer an extensive cooperative multiplayer mode that will let players play through the whole campaign or through single missions. It has been hinted that there might be one or two other modes in the game. Are they still going to make it, or is the team focusing on co-op for now?
Dave Georgeson: The multiplayer system is client-server based, so players can set up their own dedicated servers, if desired. Because the servers can run independently on a 24/7 basis, we've allowed hosts a number of options on how they want the server to run.
You can play the game from start to finish, cooperatively, with up to five players. This is what we call saga mode. Or you can set your server to play a single chapter over and over again, in what we call chapter mode. A chapter is a collection of adventures that comprises about one-sixth of the game (each of the five chapters roughly centers around one of the main characters' backgrounds and the last chapter is the climactic ending of the saga). And lastly, you can also play a single adventure over and over again, if desired. This is adventure mode.
Additionally, hosts can set a hostile flag on/off on their server. The game defaults to "off," which means that players can't hurt other players. This makes using area effect attacks a lot friendlier for players and increases the pace of the action. Changing the setting to "on" means that players will hurt other players. This really ratchets up the difficulty of the game as players have to avoid killing one another during battle. Hosts can also password their servers, limit the number of players, and even limit the power rating of characters allowed on that server.

Roof Rails on X1
Anyone using Thule bars on their X1? I have some Thule roof bars, and need to update the feet so they fit on the raised roof rails on my X1, but the Thule fit guide only makes reference to flush roof rails on the X1.
I believe "flush rails" are what the x1 has. Also, if you have an amazon account be sure to buy the Thule fit kit off of there, as there is a 12% off special going on using a coupon code listed under special offers on any Thule item on the amazon site.
Thanks for the clarification - and thanks for the tip on the Amazon deal - placed my order today!

Local Photographer's Glamorous Donation Drive
The Pradhan Studios, a glamour photographer, had a donation drive last Sunday that collected formal dresses, shoes, bags and accessories to donate to "Belle of the Ball", an event that hosts over 350 teen girls in need to build self esteem.
The Pradhan Studio's donation drive was a day of glamour, starting with a live model and demonstrations by Elspeth Nettleton on proper 'glamour' hair and make-up, including up-dos, bring a natural star quality with hair extensions, and how-to create beautiful, dramatic eyes with fake lashes.
Although you can look beautiful, to help capture that beauty you need to know how-to pose like an actress on the red carpet. Nirzhar Pradhan, glamour photographer, showed how to pose casually when sitting or standing while being photographed at an event.
For example, say you're at a table eating dinner at an event and a photographer comes around and wants to take your photo with the group. To look your best:
1. Scoot up to the edge of the seat
2. Straighten your back - slouching makes you seem to gain tummy weight
3. Turn your body slightly away from the camera
4. Keep your legs uncrossed, but keep your knees together
5. If you cross your legs, avoid crossing at the knees as that will make your legs look wider. Instead, cross at the ankles.
6. If you can, straighten the leg thats facing the camera out a little. This will help slender and lengthen the leg.
"Belle of the Ball", the event that The Pradhan Studios is donating to, is a day that provides an opportunity of many 'firsts' - having a formal dress and all the accessories, workshops on body image and make-up application. For these girls, it is an exciting day and a chance to gain self esteem and self worth. Donations are still being accepted through Friday, March 1st, at the Orangewood Children's Foundation, 1575 E. 17th Street, Santa Ana, CA 92705, Monday – Friday from 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM.

GO Markets - FX Market Commentary
Moderate greenback weakness governed currency market activity overnight, with the U.S dollar index, which measures the dollar's value relative to six major foreign currencies retreating 0.14 per cent to 76.84. Sterling continued an upward trajectory overnight as speculation grew an interest rate hike may be on the cards sooner than expected. UK Industrial Production beat estimates rising 0.4 per cent in the month of November representing an annual contraction of 6.0 per cent.
UK Manufacturing production for November failed to meet expectations recording no change against the expected 0.3 per cent, representing an annual contraction of 5.4 per cent. Although both Industrial and Manufacturing production data on an annual basis shows a solid decline, the latest result represents a significant improvement from October's reading which showed a yearly contraction of 8.4 per cent and 7.8 per cent respectively.
In the US we saw the release the Fed's Beige book which is the views of analyst, market experts and economist in 12 Federal Reserve districts in relation to the near-term economic outlook and current business conditions. In a similar theme to recent reports the overall tone suggested economic activity is improving, albeit at a slow pace whilst Labour market conditions remained subdued.
Locally, the all important employment figures will be released at 11.30 AEDT which is expected to show 10,000 newly created jobs in the month of December, taking the unemployment rate to 5.8 per cent from 5.7 per cent in November. Expect Aussie dollar activity to be highly reactive to this morning's jobs data, as traders hunt for clues on the impending rates decision when the RBA reconvenes in February.
Given the recent flurry of positive economic data such as last week's retail sales and ANZ jobs data earlier this week - interest rate projections have been thrown off kilter, with traders now balancing leading economic indicators such as today's result with the RBA's stance, which have suggested interest rates are now back in the normal range. We also need to consider the minutes from the RBA's December meeting - although they resembled the positive undertones of previous correspondence - the finer points indicated an attempt to pre-empt the curve, in effect providing some breathing space for the near term. Arguably, the conclusion of the minutes could be seen as precursor to the RBA stance on monetary policy when the bank reconvenes in February with the final paragraph stating as materially shifting the stance of policy to a less accommodative setting and, therefore, as increasing the flexibility available to the Board at future meetings.

Tennessee Land and Property
United States Tennessee Land and Property
The availability of land attracted many immigrants to America and encouraged westward expansion. Land ownership was generally recorded in an area as soon as settlers began to arrive. You can locate ancestral deeds using the Tennessee Property Records Online. An online index is also available for ancestral and modern deeds specific to Shelby County. You can use land records primarily to learn where an individual lived and when. They often reveal family information, such as the name of a spouse, heir, other relatives, or neighbors. You may learn where a person lived previously, his occupation, if he had served in the military, if he was a naturalized citizen, and other clues. Sale of the land may show when he left, and may mention where he was moving.
Tennessee was a "state-land" state, meaning the state government appropriated all land within its borders. Land was surveyed in odd-sized lots in much of the state, but west of the Tennessee River, it was surveyed in townships. Warrants authorizing surveys of the desired land were issued to persons qualified to receive grants for military service (military warrants) or cash payments (treasury warrants).
Land Grants
Original warrants, surveys, grants, and North Carolina land records are at the Tennessee State Library and Archives. Additional land records are at the Tennessee Historical Society and the local county courthouses.
The following collections are at the Tennessee State Library and Archives and on microfilm at the Family History Library. Indexes are generally located at the beginning of each set.
- North Carolina grants (beginning 1777). These grants were issued for the counties of Davidson, Green, Hawkins, Sullivan, Sumner, Tennessee, Washington, and the Eastern, Middle, and West Districts for service in the Revolutionary War.
- Tennessee General grants (beginning 1806)
- Watauga Purchase (beginning 1775)
- Hiwassee District grants (beginning 1820)
- Middle Tennessee District grants (beginning 1806)
- Mountain District grants (beginning 1806)
- Ocoee District grants (beginning 1836)
- West Tennessee District grants (beginning 1820)
- Eastern District grants (beginning 1806)
- Walker's Line (1825–1923)
All except the Walker's Line series of land grant records are in:
Tennessee. Governor. Land Grants, 1775–1905, 1911. Nashville, Tennessee: Tennessee State Library and Archives, 1976. (On 229 Family History Library films beginning with 1002725.) Indexes are included in some volumes and many years are mixed. Some volumes are missing. The land grants are completely indexed in:
Sistler, Byron. Tennessee Land Grants, Surnames. 17 Volumes. Nashville, Tennessee: Byron Sistler, 1997. (Family History Library book 976.8 R2s; 24 fiche beginning with 6039091.) This work provides an alphabetical listing of surnames listing the year of the grant, acreage, district, where the grant is located, book and page number, the grant number, and any additional grantees.
The Walker's Line series of land grant records are in:
Kentucky. Governor. Grants South of Walker's Line. Salt Lake City, Utah: Genealogical Society of Utah, 1962. (Family History Library films 272869–73.) This record contains land grants given by the state of Kentucky for land in the state of Tennessee.
A source for finding families and communities that were relocated during the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) project is:
Tennessee Valley Authority (Tennessee). Tennessee Population Relocation Files, 1934–1954, Tennessee Valley Authority. Salt Lake City, Utah: Genealogical Society of Utah, 1996. Originals are at the National Archives Record Office, East Point, Georgia. (On 34 Family History Library films beginning with 2033011.) The record contains the name of the head of family, wife, address, marital status, birthplace of parents, number and ages of children, occupation, brief description of the real estate, and religion.
North Carolina Revolutionary War Warrants
The records from 1783 to 1837 of North Carolina military bounty warrants to land in Tennessee are at the Tennessee State Library and Archives and the Family History Library. Some warrants no longer exist, although the names are mentioned in various indexes. Sources for North Carolina Revolutionary War warrants are:
Pruit, Albert Bruce. Tennessee Land Entries Military Bounty Lands. Seven Volumes. Whitakers, North Carolina, 1997. (Family History Library book 976.8 R2pa.) Contents include abstracts of location books, warrants, military bounty land warrants, and indexes by name, location, and number. They include the MARS number that ties them to the land warrants and surveys in the North Carolina State Archives. See the "Land and Property" section of the North Carolina Research Outline for information on the MARS index.
North Carolina. Secretary of State. North Carolina and Tennessee; Revolutionary Warrants, 1783–1837. Nashville, Tennessee: Tennessee State Library and Archives, 1978. (Family History Library films 1013361–75.) This contains handwritten warrants, a description of the land, names, and some hand-drawn maps. The folders are in alphabetical order.
Rice, Shirley Hollis. The Hidden Revolutionary War Land Grants in the Tennessee Military Reservation. Lawrenceburg, Tennessee: Family Tree Press, 1992. (Family History Library book 976.8 R2r.) The record lists the warrant number, grantee, county, book and page number where the deed is entered, and who the land was assigned to. It is indexed.
For information about the Glasgow land fraud, see:
Pruitt, Albert Bruce. Glasgow Land Fraud Papers, 1783–1800: North Carolina Revolutionary War Bounty Land in Tennessee. N.p.: A.B. Pruitt, 1988, 1993. (Family History Library book 976.8 R2p.) This work contains letters, reports, and warrants found to be suspect or fraudulent. The introduction explains the history of the Glasgow land fraud and how to obtain original warrants. The record contains an index.
County Records
Once a parcel of land was transferred from the government to private ownership, it may have stayed in the family for generations or for only a few months. It may have been subdivided, sold, and resold, with each transaction creating new records.
These person-to-person transactions are important to the genealogist. The potential for an ancestor to be recorded is high. These records may offer genealogical clues, such as the given name of the wife, a previous residence, names of children, or death information. Land records also offer clues to maiden names if a father deeded property to his daughter. Witnesses and neighbors may be in-laws or relatives. It is important to trace the purchase and sale (or the acquisition and disposition) of each parcel of land an ancestor owned.
The original records are filed in the county clerks' or recorders' offices. As new counties were formed and boundaries changed, transactions were then recorded in the new county, while the parent county retained the records previously created. Most of the county deeds, town lot certificates, and other important land records from many counties are on microfilm at the Family History Library.
A resource for understanding the land and property records in Tennessee is:
Whitney, Henry D. The Land Laws of Tennessee:Being a Compilation of the Various Statutes of North Carolina, the United States, and Tennessee, Relative to Titles to Lands Within the State of Tennessee from the Second Royal Charter to the Present Time; the Constitutional and Statutory Provisions Concerning the Establishment and Change of the Boundary of the State, and of Each County; Tables Showing the Date of Each Hiatus, Editorial Notes, etc., to Which is Added a Digest of the Leading Decisions on the Land Laws. Washington, D.C.: Library of Congress, 1990. (Family History Library film 1728776.)
The "Land and Property" section of the United States Research article describes government land grants, grants from states, and major resources, many of which include Tennessee.
Other land and property resources can be located in the Locality Search of the Family History Library Catalog under:
Reels of microfilm can be borrowed on interlibrary loan from the Tennessee State Library and Archives. The records include early county Land and Property.

Nice to see you again, yellow blazer! I coincidentally wore those same shoes, too, I just didn't get a good photo of them. Nails are done with Essie's Play Date and a top coat of Sinful Colors' Purple Diamond. Dress is from Papaya. I got my necklace from a little boutique about a year ago and the ring on the right hand is from Charlotte Russe, the LOVE ring, I can't remember where it's from or when I even got it…they have them everywhere, though.
I wore this to a family friend's reception on Saturday!
In other news, I hate it when I do that thing when I smile and my teeth go over my lip. It's so unattractive. I should've gotten braces.
Oh well. So this week, I'm going to St. George! It'll be fun. Fingers crossed I come back tan.
Keep up-to-date on my new postings by following me on Twitter. You can also contact me through my website here, email me at email@example.com, or send me a message to my Facebook. Check out my Pinterest, too! Thank you!

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 126.96.36.199
I have a rather large website with lots of advertising space that uses ads from various companies such as valueclick, adbrite and google. I'm planning on making a database using php and mysql so I can easily organize and replace ad code on the site. I was wondering however if I could somehow incorporate a system that keeps track of cpm and cpc data as well as totals from each company on each adspot so I can easily compare companies and decide which company is best suited and most efficient for each ad spot. Does anyone have any idea of how I could go about setting this up, such as php code that is already designed to do this or software that I could download which would allow me to do this or even a website which allows you to add tracking information from the ad companies? Any help would be appreciated, I basically just want a way of organizing the ads from multiple companies on my site more efficiently so I can see ways of increasing my profits.
I found a product called openx that looks like it does pretty much exactly what I want. Before I start setting it up and using it I want to ask is it the best choice for what I want to do or are there other products that I could use which are more efficient and easier to use?
Many thanks.

Man Sentenced For Deadly Midtown Crash
The family of Jennifer Siemens say they are pleased with the sentence a judge gave 29 year old Jefferson Potter on Tuesday.
Potter stole a lawn truck on June 7 at 33rd and Arbor and was driving at a high rate of speed when he slammed into the back of the car that Siemens was riding in at Saddle Creek and Leavenworth. She was killed and her boyfriend injured.
Potter tried to run from the scene but several witnesses held him until police arrived. Police also found that Potter was carrying a loaded handgun in his back pocket.
He will have to serve at least 27 1/2 years before being eligible for parole.
