To evaluate the anti-microbial effects of photodynamic therapy (PDT) on infected human teeth ex vivo.
Fifty-two freshly extracted teeth with pulpal necrosis and associated periradicular radiolucencies were obtained from 34 subjects. Twenty-six teeth with 49 canals received chemomechanical debridement (CMD) with 6% NaOCl and twenty-six teeth with 52 canals received CMD plus PDT. For PDT, root canal systems were incubated with methylene blue (MB) at concentration of 50 µg/ml for 5 minutes followed by exposure to red light at 665 nm with an energy fluence of 30 J/cm2. The contents of root canals were sampled by flushing the canals at baseline and following CMD alone or CMD+PDT and were serially diluted and cultured on blood agar. Survival fractions were calculated by counting colony-forming units (CFU). Partial characterization of root canal species at baseline and following CMD alone or CMD+PDT was performed using DNA probes to a panel of 39 endodontic species in the checkerboard assay.
The Mantel-Haenszel chi-square test for treatment effects demonstrated the better performance of CMD+PDT over CMD (P=0.026). CMD+PDT significantly reduced the frequency of positive canals relative to CMD alone (P=0.0003). Following CMD+PDT, 45 of 52 canals (86.5%) had no CFU as compared to 24 of 49 canals (49%) treated with CMD (canal flush samples). The CFU reductions were similar when teeth or canals were treated as independent entities. Post-treatment detection levels for all species were markedly lower for canals treated by CMD+PDT than were for those treated by CMD alone. Bacterial species within dentinal tubules were detected in 17/22 (77.3%) and 15/29 (51.7%) of canals in the CMD and CMD+PDT group, respectively (P= 0.034).
Data indicate that PDT significantly reduces residual bacteria within the root canal system, and that PDT, if further enhanced by technical improvements, holds substantial promise as an adjunct to CMD.
Endodontic treatment is the clinical management of a microbiological problem (1) and the main target of treatment is the microorganisms residing within the root canal system (2). However, the complexity of the root canal system makes complete debridement and removal of bacteria with instrumentation, irrigation and intracanal medicaments virtually impossible (3). In addition, current endodontic procedures require very good technical skills, and use medicaments whose effectiveness has never been definitively proven in human clinical trials. Three systematic reviews (4–6) on the outcome of primary non-surgical root canal treatment summarized findings from longitudinal clinical studies published up to 2006, in which treatments were carried out by undergraduate students, graduate students, general dental practitioners or specialists. The estimated success reported in these studies was 75% (6) and 78% (4, 5). In a recent systematic review by Ng et al. (2010) that included fourteen studies published between 1993 and 2007, the pooled proportion of teeth surviving over 2–10 years following root canal treatment was found to range between 86% and 93% (7). However, Wu et al. (2009) reported several factors that contribute to the overestimation of successful outcomes after primary root canal treatment: A high percentage of cases confirmed healthy by periapical radiography reveal apical periodontitis on cone beam computed tomography and by histology; extractions and retreatments were rarely recorded as failures; and the recall rate was often < 50% in longitudinal clinical studies (8). General dentists perform about 75% of root canal procedures (9), and thus it might be anticipated that failure rates are even greater in general practice (6). When strict radiographic criteria were used, the success rates were approximately 66%, 75%, 77% and 85% for treatments carried out by general dental practitioners, undergraduate students, graduate students and specialists, respectively (6). Given that more than 20 million root canals are performed yearly in the U.S. (10), approximately 2 million endodontic failures could be avoided by better disinfection procedures. The development of adjunctive antibacterial therapeutic strategies to CMD therefore becomes important in the evolution of methods to target residual microorganisms in the root canal system.
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) was developed as a therapy for cancer and is based on the concept that a non-toxic photosensitizing agent, known as photosensitizer, can be preferentially localized in premalignant and malignant tissues and subsequently activated by light of the appropriate wavelength to generate singlet oxygen and free radicals that are cytotoxic to cells of the target tissue (11). In recent years, PDT has been employed to target microorganisms in root canals in vitro (12–28) and in vivo (29–32) suggesting its usefulness as an adjunct to current endodontic disinfection techniques. Methylene blue (MB) is a well-established photosensitizer that has been used in PDT for targeting various gram-positive and gram-negative oral bacteria (33) and was previously employed to study the effect of PDT on endodontic disinfection (14, 19, 20, 22, 25, 26). MB has been used as a photosensitizing agent for almost nine decades (34). It has been used for the detection of mucosal premalignant lesions (35) and as a marker dye in surgery (36). The hydrophilicity of MB (37), along with its low molecular weight and positive charge allows passage across the porin-protein channels in the outer membrane of gram-negative bacteria (38). MB, whose intravenous administration is FDA approved for methemoglobinemia, predominantly interacts with the anionic macromolecule lipopolysaccharide and results in the generation of MB dimers (38), which participate in the photosensitization process (38).
The objective of the present study was to evaluate the antimicrobial effects of MB-mediated PDT in a stringent and clinically relevant evaluation using naturally human infected teeth ex vivo treated immediately upon their extraction. Teeth with radiographic evidence of periradicular lesions were chosen because they were guaranteed to be grossly infected, which mimics the clinical situation that leads to higher failure rates (2). The use of naturally-infected teeth, which contain a much broader range of pathogens and deeper penetration into tubules than any in vitro model system provides an excellent test of the potential of PDT in achieving root canal disinfection.
Fifty-two freshly extracted teeth with pulpal necrosis and radiographic evidence of periradicular lesions were obtained from 34 subjects in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston. Permission to collect extracted teeth was authorized by Institutional Review Board-approved informed consent. Patients had no systemic disease and had not taken any antibiotics in the previous 3 months. Following extraction, teeth were placed into individual sterile vials and transferred within 30 minutes to the Applied Molecular Photomedicine Laboratory at The Forsyth Institute for preparation and experimentation. The external surface of each tooth was cleaned with 10% povidone-iodine. After 5 min, the disinfectant was removed from the surface with isopropyl alcohol and the tooth was decoronated apical to the roof of the pulp chamber with a sterile rotating diamond saw (#911H, Brasseler USA, Savannah, GA) set at 20,000 rpm. Teeth were assigned to two groups. The first group comprised 26 teeth (5 incisors, 3 canines, 6 premolars, 12 molars) with 49 canals that received only chemomechanical debridement (CMD group) (Fig. 1). The second group comprised 26 teeth (4 incisors, 2 canines, 6 premolars, 14 molars) with 52 canals that received CMD followed by PDT (CMD+PDT group) (Fig. 1). In eight subjects, more than one tooth was obtained (22 teeth). In these cases, teeth were randomly allocated to one of the above groups.
In both groups, a baseline microbial sample of the root canal was taken. The canal was completely filled with pre-reduced anaerobically sterilized (PRAS) Ringer's solution using a sterile Monoject tuberculin syringe with 27-G X 1/2-in. detachable needle (Sherwood Medical, St. Louis, MO). A sample was collected by introducing an ISO size 10 K-type file to a working length of 0.5 mm short of the apical foramen and then agitated in the canal solution in the canal for 60 seconds. The file was then removed and the file handle was cut off under aseptic conditions and put in a 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tube containing 1 ml PRAS Ringer's solution. The canal contents were aspirated using the same syringe as above and added in the tube containing the file.
Chemomechanical debridement was performed in teeth of both groups using standard K files and 0.04 mm/mm taper number 7 series 29 Ni-Ti rotary Profiles™ (Dentsply Maillefer, Tulsa, OK) to achieve a master apical file size of .465 (ISO equivalent) for distal canals of mandibular molars, palatal canals of maxillary molars, and all single rooted teeth. Number 6 0.04 mm/mm taper Ni-Ti rotary Profiles™ were used to achieve a master apical file size of .360 (ISO equivalent) for buccal canals of maxillary molars and mesial canals of mandibular molars. RC Prep® (Premium Products, Plymouth Meeting, PA) was used as a lubricant during instrumentation and canals were irrigated with 10 cc of 6% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) throughout the instrumentation sequence. All irrigants used were dispensed using a 30 gauge Max-I-Probe (Dentsply Maillefer). After canal preparation an aliquot of 1 ml of 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) solution was left in situ for 3 min for smear layer removal, and was replaced by 1 ml of 6% NaOCl for 3 minutes.
Immediately after chemomechanical disinfection, each specimen in the CMD group was aseptically mounted on a rubber dam attached to a rack. The contents of root canals were sampled by flushing the root canals with a coronal application of 1-ml of sterile phosphate buffered saline (PBS) with a Pro Rinse® 30 gauge irrigation needle (Dentsply Maillefer) (Fig. 2). The bacterial suspension was collected in a 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tube positioned below the apical foramen and bacterial yielding was measured spectrophotometrically for each sample. After vortexing for 20 seconds, serial dilutions were prepared and 100 µl aliquots were inoculated onto blood agar and incubated anaerobically for 7 days.
Following CMD, specimens in the CMD+PDT group were treated by MB-mediated PDT. Methylene blue (Sigma, St Louis, MO) was dissolved in sterile PBS and filter-sterilized immediately prior to use. The final concentration used was 50 µg/ml (134 µM). The ultraviolet-visible absorption spectra of MB in PBS were recorded from 200 to 800 nm using quartz cuvettes with 1 cm path length on a diode-array spectrophotometer and were characterized by a long-wavelength maximum at 665 nm as shown previously (14).
All individual specimens were aseptically mounted on a rubber dam, with the rubber dam frame attached to a rack. Then the canals were filled to the level of the access cavity with MB solution using a Pro Rinse® 30 gauge irrigation needle (Dentsply Maillefer) for 5 minutes. Following incubation, the canal was dried with a paper cone. Light was then applied in the root canal system of the specimens in appropriate groups for 2.5 minutes followed by a break of 2.5 minutes and a second light exposure for 2.5 minutes. The irradiation source was a diode laser (BWTEK Inc., Newark, DE) with an output power of 1 Watt and a central wavelength of 665 nm. The system was coupled to a 250-µm diameter optical fiber (22) that was mechanically notched over a one-centimeter length at approximately one-millimeter intervals (Schoelly Imaging Inc., Worcester, MA). The fiber was able to uniformly distribute light at 36° within the root canal. The power density was 100 mW/cm2 and the total energy fluence dose was 30 J/cm2. The fiber optic was wiped with ethanol after the completion of each light exposure.
The contents of root canals were sampled by flushing the root canals as described above. Serial dilutions were prepared and 100 µl aliquots were inoculated onto blood agar and incubated anaerobically for 7 days.
Following flushing of tooth specimens, intracanal dentinal shavings were removed from the CMD group (9 teeth with 22 canals) and CMD+PDT group (12 teeth with 29 canals) and gathered in an microcentrifuge tube containing 1.5 ml of BHI. Briefly, a 21 mm length nickel-titanium rotary file (#25, Sequence, Brasseler, Savannah, Georgia) with a tip diameter of 0.25 mm and a taper of 0.06 mm/mm was inserted to length in each 12 and 14 mm tooth specimen (i.e. at length, the 21 mm Sequence file protruded 9 mm and 7 mm beyond each 12 mm and 14 mm tooth specimen root tip respectively). This generated a circumferential dentinal tubule penetration of 205 to 455µ or 205 to 485µ for each 12 mm or 14 mm tooth specimen respectively measured from each root tip to coronal level.
The microbial composition of root canals before and after treatment was assayed using a whole genomic probe assay as described previously (22). Tris-EDTA buffer (1.5 ml) was added to the plates and the bacterial colonies were harvested using glass rods. The cell suspensions were placed into individual Eppendorf tubes and sonicated for 10 sec to break up clumps. The optical density (OD) of each suspension was adjusted to a final OD of 1.0, which corresponded to approximately 109 cells. Ten µl of the suspension (107 cells) was removed and placed in another Eppendorf tube with 140 µl of TE buffer and 150 µl of 0.5M NaOH. The samples were lysed and the DNA was placed in lanes on a positively charged nylon membrane using a Minislot device (Immunetics, Cambridge, MA, USA). After fixation of the DNA to the membrane, the membrane was placed in Miniblotter 45 (Immunetics) with the lanes of DNA perpendicular to the lanes of the device. Digoxigenin-labeled whole genomic DNA probes against 39 species found in endodontic infections (39) were hybridized in individual lanes of the Miniblotter. After hybridization, the membranes were washed at high stringency and the DNA probes were detected using antibody to digoxigenin conjugated with alkaline phosphatase for chemifluorescence detection. Signals were detected using AttoPhos substrate (Amersham Life Science, Arlington Heights, IL, USA) and were scanned using a Storm Fluorimager (Molecular Dynamics, Sunnyvale, CA, USA). Computer-generated images were analyzed to determine the fluorescence intensity associated with each sample and probe. Two lanes in each membrane contained DNA standards with 1 ng (105 bacteria) and 10 ng (106 bacteria) of each species. The sensitivity of the assay was adjusted to permit detection of 104 cells of a given species by adjusting the concentration of each DNA probe. The measured fluorescence intensities were converted to absolute counts by comparison with the standards on the same membrane. Failure to detect a signal was recorded as zero.
The principal endpoint calculated for each canal was the residual level of colony-forming units (CFUs) following treatment relative to the pretreatment CFU level (residual %CFUs). For multi-rooted teeth the value for each tooth was the average of the canal values. Treatment effects were evaluated in a logistic model using generalized estimating equations (GEE) to account for correlations between canals from the same tooth. An indicator (0/1) variable was included to estimate and adjust for single-rooted/multi-rooted teeth. Similar analyses were done for teeth stratified as single/multi-rooted using Mantel-Haenszel analysis.
Figure 1 shows the distribution of 52 teeth in the CMD (26 teeth) and CMD+PDT (26 teeth) groups. The number of canals from each tooth that received either treatment is also provided. These numbers are highlighted in bold when teeth were incompletely disinfected following treatment and the number of positive canals is given in parentheses. The results clearly demonstrated the better performance of CMD+PDT over CMD. The summary Mantel-Haenszel chi-square test for treatment effects was significant (P= 0.026). Overall, 13 of 26 teeth (50%) were positive following CMD, whereas 6 of 20 teeth (30%) were positive following CMD+PDT. Among single-rooted teeth, 5 of 14 teeth (35.7%) were positive following CMD, whereas only 1 of 12 teeth (8.3%) was positive following CMD+PDT. Among multi-rooted teeth, 8 of 12 teeth (66.7%) were positive following CMD and 5 of 14 teeth (35.7%) were positive following CMD +PDT.
CMD+PDT significantly reduced the frequency of positive canals relative to CMD alone (P= 0.0003) (Table 1). Canals from single-rooted teeth were less likely to be positive post-treatment than canals from multi-rooted teeth (P= 0.10). Following CMD+PDT, 45 of 52 canals (86.5%) had no CFU as compared to 24 of 49 canals (49%) treated with CMD (Table 1) (canal flush samples). Post-treatment microbial levels were low as a percent of pretreatment levels (%CFU). For CMD+PDT only 7 of 52 canals (13.5%) were positive and all had %CFU less than 0.1% of pretreatment CFU levels. However, following CMD 25 of 49 canals were positive (51%) and 22.4% of canals had post-treatment values greater than 0.1% of pretreatment levels (Table 1). The CFU reductions were similar when teeth or canals were treated as independent entities. Analysis stratified by tooth type indicated that post treatment %CFU values were more often positive and also at higher levels of infection in canals that received CMD relative to canals that have received CMD+PDT (P<0.0001).
The microbial composition of canal biofilms (canal flush samples) was studied by checkerboard DNA-DNA hybridization. Pre- and post-treatment frequencies (+/−) were obtained for 39 species found in endodontic infections with whole genomic probes for 45 canals that received CMD+PDT and 44 that received CMD alone (Fig. 3). The number of canals positive for each species pretreatment was quite high and the pattern was similar for both treatments. Post-treatment detection levels for all species were systematically and markedly lower for canals treated by CMD+PDT than for those treated by CMD alone. Key endodontic pathogens resisting intracanal disinfection procedures (40) were dramatically reduced (Fig. 3, highlighted in grey).
The frequency of dentinal infection (after debridement up to 485 µm) was also evaluated (Table 2). In the CMD group, tubules from 17/22 canals (77.3%) were positive after treatment, while in the CMD+PDT group tubules from 15/29 (51.7%) canals were positive (P= 0.034).
The present study was built on the interdependent foundations of: 1) developing an in vitro model for testing PDT (14, 20, 22); 2) the utilization of an FDA approved drug – methylene blue (MB) – as the photosensitizer (14, 20, 22); 3) the development of a novel light delivery system that maximizes the distribution of light within the entire anatomy of the root canal system (22); 4) the ongoing refinement of light and drug dosimetry (14, 20, 22, 41); and 5) the assessment of PDT safety (41). The hypothesis of this study was that near complete elimination of residual root canal bacteria could be achieved using PDT as an adjunctive procedure to SET in chronically-infected extracted human teeth ex vivo. Our findings show that MB-mediated PDT significantly enhanced the effect of CMD. Four in vivo studies have also suggested the potential of PDT as an adjunctive technique to eliminate residual root canal bacteria after CMD (29–32). Toluidine blue-mediated PDT offered a means of destroying microorganisms remaining after using sodium hypochlorite alone (29) or citric acid and sodium hypochlorite as co-irrigants (30). PDT significantly enhanced the effect of CMD in teeth with necrotic pulps using a conjugate between polyethyleneimine chlorine e6 conjugate (31) and toluidine blue (32).
The incomplete bacterial killing in dentinal tubules following PDT may be due to: a) Incomplete MB penetration in the tubules that may be related to binding interactions with dentin components; b) Failure of MB to penetrate canal biofilms; and c) Insufficient oxygenation. We have proposed the encapsulation of MB within poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanoparticles that may offer a novel nano-platform for enhanced drug delivery and photodestruction of canal biofilms (28). These nanoparticles have a hydrophobic core part made up of PLGA (hydrophobic) and PEO-PPO (surfactant) molecules (polyethylene oxide-polypropylene oxide). Surfactant chains project outwards from the surface of the core part because of their hydrophilic end groups (hydroxyl, quarternary ammonium). This creates a gradient from the hydrophilic end groups outside to increased hydrophobicity towards the core of nanoparticles. Hydrophilic end groups provide an anchoring effect for retention of nanoparticles to negatively-charged membranes. Due to the hydrophobic-hydrophilic orientation of the surfactant molecules, they provide good wettability to enhance interaction on/within bacterial membranes. Infiltration of dentinal tubules by MB-loaded nanoparticles has recently been demonstrated (28). George and Kishen (19) dissolved MB in a mixture composed of glycerol, ethanol and water (30:20:50) and showed greater penetration of MB into dentinal tubules. Our future studies will explore the use of ultrasonic waves for enhancement of the transdentinal movement and penetration of MB in canal biofilms. It has been demonstrated that an irrigant in conjunction with ultrasonic vibration, which generates acoustic streaming and continuous movement of the irrigant, increases the effectiveness of the cleaning of root canal (42). Regarding insufficient oxygenation, the application of perfluoro-decahydro-napthalene in the root canal system was proposed as a carrier of oxygen for enhancement of the PDT effect (26). The basic properties of perfluorocarbons and perfluorocarbon emulsions relevant to their use as oxygen delivery systems were briefly reviewed (43). A Phase III clinical trial in cardiopulmonary bypass surgery, with a protocol that included both augmented-acute normovolemic hemodilution and intraoperative autologous donation, was interrupted following the observation of adverse events. At this time point, there is not enough information concerning the toxicity of these compounds to utilize them.
The results obtained from this study are very promising. The use of naturally infected teeth, which contain a broader range of pathogens than in vitro model systems, provide an excellent test of the potential of PDT in achieving root canal disinfection. However, since some living bacteria were still present in dentinal tubules following PDT, further refinement and enhancement of the PDT procedure may be necessary. The effect of biophysical means and surface tension-reducing agents on the transdentinal penetration of MB as well as the effect of supplemental hyper-oxygenation should be evaluated.

Winning a fantasy football league isn't an easy thing to do, as it usually requires defeating at least nine other competitors. Playing it safe can protect you from embarrassment, but you must take calculated risks if you want to be a champion.
Often, the players who offer to best risk/reward ratios are those who have displayed the potential to be game-breaking talents, but whom fantasy owners have soured on because of either recent struggles or a large amount of uncertainty about their potential output.
One prime example of this is one of my favorite targets this year -- Rob Gronkowski (TE, Patriots). Gronkowski struggled with injuries the past few years, but reports out of training camp indicate he is healthy, and when he plays, he's on par with surefire first-rounder Jimmy Graham (TE, Saints). Yet, because of the perceived risk, he is almost always available in the late-second to early-third rounds of fantasy drafts.
C.J. Spiller (RB, Bills) was one of the best players in football just two years ago, and he plays in an offense that ran the most rushing plays in the NFL last year. While 2013 may have been a disaster, as he struggled with injuries and lost carries to Fred Jackson, it wouldn't be shocking to see him end up as a top five fantasy player this year. When you can draft someone like that in the third or fourth round of your draft, you'd be wise to do it.
So, as you prepare for your fantasy football draft, don't be afraid to target similar players who you perceive to offer significant upside. Even if it doesn't work out, the downside usually isn't as bad as you would think, as an active owner can still find reliable options during the season on the waiver wire.

Art Workshop and Craft Beer Tasting
Christina Massey is a Brooklyn based artist who uses repurposed and found materials combined with fiber art techniques such as weaving to create abstract sculptural paintings. Her work is exhibited frequently in and around NYC as well as abroad in London, Tokyo and Toronto. Christina enjoys sharing her process and ideas through her workshops and creative coaching.
We are fortunate to welcome Christina to the Resort to share her work and talents with us. Join us on Saturday for her aluminum weaving workshop, complete with craft beer tastings from Rivertowne Brewing.
Aluminum Weaving Workshop with Christina Massey
Craft Beer Tastings from Rivertowne Brewing
In this class, we will be focusing on how to repurpose aluminum cans to create two and three dimensional weavings. You will learn how to safely cut open and reuse aluminum cans, flatten them, and use those to create colorful, whimsical art objects that can be used for both functional and non-functional purposes. You'll learn how to make a simple loom with wire and a frame, then get to your creating in a fun sharing atmosphere. Expect to go home with at least one, if not more, artistic weavings and inspiration on how to continue this process to create loads more fun objects at home.
The cans we will be using are repurposed craft beer cans, and we'll be having a craft beer tasting from Rivertowne Brewing to go along with our weaving!
Due to the nature of the cans and tasting, this workshop is best suited for adults over 21. For those with disabilities or injuries in their hands preventing the use of box cutters or scissors, please contact early and reference your restrictions so that aluminum will be pre-cut for you.
If you have empty, clean aluminum cans, feel free to bring as many as you like, although fantastic cans from Rivertowne Brewing will be provided for the class if you have none.
Class fee: $29 per person. Hosted on the Fire and Water Terrace from 11-1pm.
Space is limited. For reservations, call 877.677.1829.

They are wonderful, Lyn. And how nice that your swap partners' work is on display, too. What a thrill!
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
They are wonderful, Lyn. And how nice that your swap partners' work is on display, too. What a thrill!
Feel the fear and do it anyway!
Lynnie, What a beautiful display of quilts. I'm sure they were much admired by viewers. I think sometimes people who have no interest in quilts think of them as something old grannies make to keep warm. Before I decided to quilt I had no real idea of the beautiful and artistic planning that went into the quilts. It waas an eye opening experience for me and i'm sure for many others that see them. Might even stir the artistic bug in someone to get started quilting.
I agree with your comment Sweetwaterquilter. In my case I just felt it was something that doesn't interest me at all because it seemed boring. Fast forward 2 yrs later of sewing... I enjoy it! Where I think I am not the creative type at all, someone else makes a comment to the contrary. It is fun and relaxing to say the least!
Family is a priority, not a convenience!
Take time to be friendly... It's the road to happiness.
Take time to give... It is too short a day to be selfish.
Lyn; How nice that all looks!! I really need to get mine displayed in my home in a way that I can enjoy them all together and guests can, too. We are artists for sure!
Wow on display.
Life is short, live it while you still can. QuilterMomma
Life is short, live it while you still can. QuilterMomma
Lynnie that is very inspiring! What a pretty way to gather them all together!
Come August and ALL my dolls quilts sent to me will be displayed at a local quilt show. I had to choose just a few of them that would fit the cabinet spaces for the library display.
I am really happy to have rwquilts as my swap partner this month, and I have 3 teeny blocks already done as a start on her quilt.
QB Albums: Lynnie25's Quilts; Selvedge Quilts; Lyn's Dolls Quilt Swap Quilts
Lynnie, What a fantastic display of all your quilts. Maybe it will spark an interest in a new generation of quilters. Or at least plant the seed for a later date.
My little shinning stars. Brantley, Kaylynn, and Emmalee
Lyn, Beautiful display of quilts... really makes you proud to see them all their for everyone to see... Even the kids who may someday decided to get into quilting becasue of you taking the time to do that...
Hearing happens when the ears and the brain team up, but listening happens with the ears of the heart.
I collect Angels and homemade ornaments
Hi....can i please do Junes swop........where or where has May gone....someone has definately stolen it from my calander... I remember April but can't believe it's June tomorrow !
i can not believe i forgot to sign up!! glad you knew i wanted to do june. i will / have pm(d) you, krystyna!
The only bad days are the ones you don't get.
PMd my partner for this month, Starshine. Scoped out her member site and her posts, I was stalking the info and what has been said and I believe I have already figured out what to make her and have not even spoke with her. This must be a good sign. It may take me all month to sew what I think will work. When get home will pull out so I can look at it the whole while thinking got to get on that one now. I have two graduation projects to do and two other swaps that take priority first before this one. Would you believe they are all cut up as well. I do like to cut fabric, good thing I did that before the hand surgery, may have taken longer to ge tthat far.
Life is short, live it while you still can. QuilterMomma
That's clever to look and see what your partner liked in the past. Hope your hand is going to be okay, because you surely give new meaning to "having your work cut out for you".
I keep getting curious QuilterMomma - what does it say under your really cute sqirrel avatar? Squirrels + Coffee....?
My partner Kris told me what she liked and lucky for me an idea just popped right into my head. I'm just a bit nervous after seeing what she did last month, because it was so beautiful that she really raised the bar!
Does anyone want an extra international partner?
Feel the fear and do it anyway!
Uhm, maybe, how long do I have to finish it?
Life is short, live it while you still can. QuilterMomma
Okie dokie ... the finalized partner list (unless I missed someone or ???) is here http://www.quiltingboard.com/groups/...ml#gmessage495
Feel the fear and do it anyway!
Oh crud I guess I will have to sit this month out, I didn't realize I missed the sign up date...Grrrrrr

Happy Quilting!

I ordered this set and saw that it could take upwards of 4 weeks to arrive. Imagine my surprise when I got a call less than 2 weeks later to arrange a delivery time! This bed is soft, yet firm (if that makes sense) and I have been getting some of the best rest since I purchased it. One caveat, because the bed has a pillow top, if you purchase this set in conjunction with the split platform frame, also sold here, the bed will be, seriously, 3 feet off of the floor. I'm only 5' 4" and don't want to pole vault into bed every night! So the set is temporarily sitting directly on the floor and still sits as high as a bed on a normal-height frame.Read More
What a joy having this new mattress and box are. They are great.Read More
We have a 100 year old house with a difficult stairway, to get our old bed in we had to saw our base in half and then brace back together!! The base/s went up our stairs like a knife through butter, so easy my husband did it on his own! Great bed, we love that it is taller than an our old bed..though our dog has further to spring up to sneak onto it during the day! Cannot fault this product...thank you!Read More
The split box springs are wonderful! Our bed is downstairs and queen size box springs wouldn't fit down the stairs. This is the only way we could go from a full to a queen size mattress. We both love it! Set up was great. The young man and woman were helpful and conscientious. They hauled off our old mattress and were cheerful the whole time. We are very happy customers!Read More
I was very apprehensive ordering a mattress online. I had shopped around a bit in stores and found the kind of mattress I wanted (pillow top). When I saw this mattress advertized for the price I thought it was too good to be true but after reading all of the reviews thought I'm going to take the plunge and purchase it. The mattress was delivered to my house 12 days after my order was placed which was extremely fast. The delivery went smoothly and they even removed my old mattress! The Serta Bristol is very comfortable. I am very pleased with this purchase. Thanks O.Co!Read More
I am not happy for purchasing this mattress. My back hurts everytime I sleep on it.Read More
I bought this several years ago and I love it. I may have to get a King Size as I'm not to thrilled with the new Foam mattress that I just purchased with a new King size bed. I sleep in the extra bedroom often where this mattress was relocated - my husband thinks I'm crazy!Read More
I read ppl loved this but not sure why. Everyone has sunk in it. When you get in the foot flips up. It's not dense. We are averaged sized. We replaced it within 2 years and my herniated disc felt immediately better on a new mattress (memory foam)Read More
this is a great mattress set. Perfect blend of a firm mattress & a european soft topper. Love it!Read More
I love this bed. I sleep soo good. It is vey soft but I feel supported I don't wake up with back painRead More
After almost 15 years on the same dull and uncomfortable mattress, a new one was desperately needed. I was nervous about buying a mattress on-line and not being able to try it out in store first; one thing that helped to soothe some of my nervous energy was that I was buying a mattress from a company I trusted, the mattress I previously had was made by the same company. I am nervous no more. I was told that it would arrive in 1-4 weeks, I got the phone call to set up delivery about a week after ordering it and it was set up in my room in 2 weeks (amazing service). I LOVE this mattress. My first night's sleep was so peaceful and was like sleeping on clouds. It is the perfect balance between soft and firm. I did not find myself tossing and turning all night, as I was once used to doing. I'm 5'2" and it is a little high, but I am able to stretch on my tip-toes to get in and out without an issue. Everytime I am forced out of bed for some adult responsibility, I count the hours until I can get back in.Read More
Came in 2 weeks and feels wonderful. The absolute best price was on Overstock as I am a bargain hound. The delivery guys were so friendly and helpful. This is our second Overstock mattress and will continue to purchase through OS.Read More
great bed for the price. great delivery service - very pleased with the purchaseRead More
I bought the mattress set for a guest bedroom, which it is perfect for guests. It's comfortable and soft without that sinking feeling. However, I prefer a bed that does not move when I crawl in or move around. The coils are not individually wrapped to prevent this from happening. To me, that is the only draw back.Read More
I have to say I was skeptical buying an oversized item on line. But this Mattress is fabulous and the price amazing! I was surprised how speedy Shipping was and how smoothly it went. They were on time and delivered in minutes. Will definitely recommend the mattress and overstock.com! Thanks for a great transaction!Read More
I was very skeptical about ordering a mattress online. I am a previous owner of a serta mattress, so I new it was a good product. Overstock has excellent service and delivery. No problemsRead More
I absolutely love my new mattress and box spring. It is an extremely comfortable set and the pillow top is fantastic. The price was terrific,What a great deal! Thank youRead More
I wasn't sure if buying a mattress online would be the best idea, but after reading the reviews I decided to go for it. The delivery was fairly quick and was here within 2 weeks. The split boxspring allows for the bed to be easily moved up narrow stairways as with myy 100+ year house. It sits rather high, even on a low-profile metal frame, but I like it that way so it's easier to get in and out of it. As for the mattress itself, it's perfect! I have a bad back and constantly find myself lying on the floor to adjust my back. After sleeping on this bed for 2 weeks, the firm mattress definitely helped my back, while the foam pillowtop still keeps me comfortable. No more adjusting my old mattress topper when it started sliding down the bed. I took away 1 star for the slight smell - I think it's the foam topper, but it's not too bad and is already going away (or I'm just getting used to it). Overall, definitely happy I got this!Read More
I was hesitant, like most people, about ordering a mattress online, but the reviews on here was very positive, so I took the plunge. My order was processed fairly quickly, delivery guys were very polite, and efficient. I love my new mattress! So comfortable, great mix of soft and supportive. I have no more back pain from sleeping on a too old mattress. I'm completely satisfied with my purchase. Great product and I would highly recommend it.Read More
I was initially reluctant to purchase a bed from an online store. I mean, who does that? I thought. But, after reading all of the positive reviews and then seeing that Sleepys, Macys and other stores were advertising similar beds for more than 3x the price, I figured I would give it a shot. Oh, and the $2.95 shipping was definitely a purchase incentive! I am so happy I stepped out on faith and took a chance on this bed. For me, comfort is crucial, since I have serious back problems (5 back surgeries for scoliosis) thus, finding a bed with the right firmness and softness if very important. And of course, also equally important is a price that wont break the bank. I am having the most comfortable sleeping experience in years and I would definitely recommend this product.Read More

The Last Dragonslayer : Last Dragonslayer Book 1 Paperback
by Jasper Fforde
Part of the Last Dragonslayer series
In the good old days, magic was powerful, unregulated by government, and even the largest spell could be woven without filling in magic release form B1-7g.Then the magic started fading away.Fifteen-year-old Jennifer Strange runs Kazam, an employment agency for soothsayers and sorcerers.
But work is drying up. Drain cleaner is cheaper than a spell, and even magic carpets are reduced to pizza delivery.So it's a surprise when the visions start.
Not only do they predict the death of the Last Dragon at the hands of a dragonslayer, they also point to Jennifer, and say something is coming.

Review by SandDune
Jennifer Strange is a foundling and the acting manager of Kazam, one of the few remaining Houses of Enchantment in the UnUnited Kingdoms. But magic is not what is was, the powers of wizards and soothsayers are fading, and the House of Kazam is reduced to the provision of mundane services such as organ delivery by magic carpet or the magical rewiring of houses. But then a soothsayer has a premonition that the last dragon will be killed by a Dragonslayer on the following Sunday, which means that the dragonlands, protected for centuries, can be claimed by whoever gets there first after the dragon's death. Followed by the fearsome but loyal quarkbeast, nine-tents velociraptor and one tenth Labrador, Jennifer's life gets very complicated.It's not a great book but it was good fun. I think that this is the first book that Jasper Fforde has written for a YA audience. I've tried some of his stuff for adults before - well when I say I've tried it I've picked up a book, read the first few pages and put it down again - but they haven't really appealed. But based on this I might give him another go.
Review by eclecticdodo
Jennifer Strange runs one of the last remaining wizidrical agencies, trying to hold things together until her boss returns. After a premonition about the death of the last dragon she finds herself at the centre of events. A very good fantasy, and great to see a strong female lead for a change. I look forward to the next book in the series.
Review by joannasephine
A good, fun read, with Fforde's trademark blend of silliness and seriousness. If you know Fforde's other series, I'd say this feels more in the Nursery Crimes style than Thursday Next. Like Terry Pratchett's Tiffany Aching books, this is a much lite-er read, and is easy to devour in one or two sittings. But also like Pratchett's Tiffany books, it's something I imagine adults enjoying every bit as much as children. The plot is fairly straightforward (although there are twists, and some satirical points being made about geopolitical and social tendencies), and leaves the potential for many more books to come. I look forward to reading the next one!

Genres: Comedy, Romance
Ichinomiya Kou, sole heir to the Ichinomiya Corporation, has lived his life without debts. His father commanded that only man who can support himself, alone, can lead this company. To take this to the extreme, when Kou was three years old his father took on the role of a helpless child so that Kou could pay back those first three years of debt. Now 22, Kou suffers from severe asthma whenever he finds himself in debt and goes to great lengths to be self sufficient. This all works out well until a gang of kids steal his pants and hoist them to the top of a bridge.
Kou scales one of the bridge supports to recover his pants, shrugging off the help a young girl fishing off the bridge offers. Now debt free and pants in hand… disaster strikes. The bridge support collapses into the water and Kou nearly drowns. The girl, named Nino, has rescued him from certain death. However, he is now in debt way over his head. As Kou tries to think his way out of his predicament, he learns that Nino lives under the bridge in a make-shift room of cardboard, street signs and a big curtain. Thinking himself lucky, he offers to buy her a proper house to clear his debt. She says she doesn't need one, and his asthma comes back.
She wants him to fall in love with her instead. While he initially takes this as a joke, his sense of duty forces him to go through with it. Nino lets Kou know that her behavior may be odd because she is from Venus. His first night under the bridge, as Nino wants his to live with her now, nearly kills him due to the cold and precarious living space. Kou constructs himself a rather sizable apartment up under the bridge to fulfill his agreement.
He spends his time in this under-bridge village, called Arakawa by its inhabitants, attempting to stay sane. From the Village Chief who dresses as a kappa; the town's religious leader named Sister who is a gun toting, cross dressing man; Shirai Tooru who can only walk on white lines; and the multitude of young, masked men who despise Kou for being with Nino… he is having a tough time adjusting.
This series flows pretty well from joke to joke and situation to hilarious situation. The central premise of Kou needing to clear his debts only serves to ensure he stays and racks up more debts. As the only thread to hold this chaotic mess of insane individuals together, it pulls its weight. I am excited to see how things get moving, as we are only just in character introductions by this stage of the show.

text: Here's a trick I use, making a foil tray by molding it around a cutting board. The foil is 12 inches wide, and the board is 10x12 inches. A piece of foil 12x14 will overlap the board with 2 inches to spare, enough to form 1-inch-tall sides. A double layer of heavy-duty foil makes a pan rigid enough to use on a grill.

My I-don't-have-to-run day
This Sunday, come down to the Vauxhall Griffin for a browse through the Sunday papers, a Bloody Mary and a delicious roast dinner.
Food is served from about 2pm until sometime after 4, but you're advised to come down earlier rather than later as they can sell out pretty quickly. (It's been very busy over the last few weeks).
From 1.30 until 6pm, gentle pops, wistful melodies and some soothing tunes will this week be supplied by Kiss & Make Up's Stuart. And you might like to know that Sunday Supplement DJ Hayley is running the London Marathon on the same day.
If you'd like to, you can sponsor her here:
That's all.
EDIT: Also, Hannah from work is running it too! And you can sponsor her here.

Happy Anniversary to Disappointment. And also, farewell to LCD Soundsystem, who play their final concert tonight. Look at the spooky date coincidence in their Disco Infiltrator video!

Ain't no party
Recently, I was set the task of making a compilation CD of songs by artists that shared the same initial as my forename. Does that even make sense? Erm, I think it does. The CD was to have 12 tracks, and also the cover had to be an homage to an existing cover by an artist beginning with the same letter. ANYWAY. I made my compilation (which I might post here at some point) but I also made an exciting BONUS compilation that was a bit more dancey and I kind of went slightly beyond the 12-track restriction. I called it S Club Party, because all the artists begin with S, like. And also, it's kind of uptempo and suitable for those fun times in your life. (Parties are fun times). THIS IS THAT COMPILATION. And, seemingly, S Club 7 were so moved by the reference, that they immediately reunited for a night up west. Aaw, bless. Apologies for the shoddy mixing, but please realise that – due to the '80s nature of some of the tracks – I cannot be held responsible for all of the dodgy t-t-t-t-tape edits you're about to hear.

Weight Loss for Life
There are many ways to lose weight, but it is not always easy to keep the weight off. The key to successful weight loss is making changes in your eating and physical activity habits that you can keep up for the rest of your life. The information presented here may help put you on the road to healthy habits.
Can I benefit from weight loss?
Some weight-related health problems:
Health experts agree that you may gain health benefits from even a small weight loss if:
A weight loss of 5 to 15 percent of body weight may improve your health and quality of life, and prevent these health problems. For a person who weighs 200 pounds, that means losing 10 to 30 pounds.
Even if you do not need to lose weight, you still should follow healthy eating and physical activity habits to help prevent weight gain and stay healthy as you age.
Find your weight on the bottom of the graph. Go straight up from that point until you come to the line that matches your height. Then look to find your weight group.
How can I lose weight?
Calories needed to maintain weight
Your body weight is controlled by the number of calories you eat and the number of calories you use each day. To lose weight you need to take in fewer calories than you use. You can do this by creating and following a plan for healthy eating and a plan for regular physical activity.
You may also choose to follow a formal weight-loss program that can help you make lifelong changes in your eating and physical activity habits. See below for more information on weight-loss programs.
Your plan for healthy eating
The Nutrition Facts label from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is found on most packaged foods. It tells you how many calories and how much fat, protein, carbohydrate, and other nutrients are in one serving of the food. For more information on the Nutrition Facts label, see "Other Resources" at the end of this brochure.
A weight-loss "diet" that limits your portions to a very small size or that excludes certain foods may be hard to stick to and not work over the long term. Instead, a healthy eating plan takes into account your likes and dislikes, and includes a variety of foods that give you enough calories and nutrients for good health.
Make sure your eating plan contains:
Your plan for regular physical activity
Regular physical activity may help you lose weight and keep weight off. It may also improve your energy level and mood, and lower your risk for developing diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and some cancers.
Any amount of physical activity is better than none. Experts recommend doing 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity on most or all days of the week for good health. To lose weight or maintain a weight loss, you may need to do more than 30 minutes of physical activity a day, as well as follow your healthy eating plan.
You can get your daily 30 minutes or more all at once, or break it up into shorter sessions of 20, 15, or even 10 minutes. Try some of these moderate-intensity physical activities:
What types of weight-loss programs are available?
There are two different types of weight-loss programsclinical and non-clinical. Knowing what a good program will offer and what to watch out for may help you choose a weight-loss program that will work for you.
Non-clinical program
What it is: A non-clinical program may be commercially operated, such as a privately owned weight-loss chain. You can follow a non-clinical program on your own by using a counselor, book, website, or weight-loss product. You can also join others in a support group, worksite program, or community-based program. Non-clinical weight-loss programs may require you to use the program's foods or supplements.
What a safe and effective program will offer:
Program cautions:
Clinical program
What it is: A clinical program provides services in a health care setting, such as a hospital. One or more licensed health professionals, such as medical doctors, nurses, registered dietitians, and/or psychologists, provide care. A clinical program may or may not be commercially owned.
Clinical programs may offer services such as nutrition education, physical activity, and behavior change therapy. Some programs offer prescription weight-loss drugs or gastrointestinal surgery.
Prescription weight-loss drugs
If your BMI is 30 or more, or your BMI is 27 or more and you have weight-related health problems, you may consider using prescription weight-loss drugs. Drugs should be used as part of an overall program that includes long-term changes in eating and physical activity habits. Only a licensed health care provider can prescribe these drugs. See "Additional Reading" for more information about prescription medications for the treatment of obesity.
Gastrointestinal surgery
If your BMI is 40 or more, or your BMI is 35 or more and you have weight-related health problems such as diabetes or heart disease, you may consider gastrointestinal surgery (also called bariatric surgery). Most patients lose weight quickly, and many keep off most of their weight with a healthy eating plan and regular physical activity. Still, surgery can lead to problems that require more operations. Surgery may also reduce the amount of vitamins and minerals in your body and cause gallstones. See "Additional Reading" for more information about gastrointestinal surgery.
What a safe and effective program will offer:
Program cautions:
For more detailed information about choosing a safe and successful weight-loss program, see "Additional Reading" at the end of this brochure.
It is not always easy to change your eating and physical activity habits.
You may have setbacks along the way.
But keep tryingyou can do it!

The South African coach is confident he knows Ghana inside out ahead of Tuesday's friendly in Durban
Mashaba's Bafana Bafana go into Tuesday's match in Durban off the back of a morale boosting 1-1 away draw in Burkina Faso, that being the opening game of their 2018 World Cup qualifying campaign.
"We know already what to expect from Ghana,» the 66-year-old told reporters yesterday.
"It's physical, quick going forward and they take shots from all angles on the pitch."
The former Swaziland coach however complained about his team's lack of adequate preparatory time ahead of the game.
His team arrived in Durban on Monday morning, compared to Ghana's Sunday morning arrival.
"We arrived this morning (Monday) and no training, nothing," Mashaba said.
"A lot of people expect the boys to run and win against Ghana. Ghana, our visitors, were here on Sunday if I'm not mistaken and they had all the chance to prepare and they prepared yesterday. We couldn't train and the medical people will kill us, because we will be punishing those boys.
"The little bit of scientific that I have, if the player has traveled this much the muscle shrinks and he lacks enough supply of oxygen and that is crucial to an athlete. We only took them to the pool and the pool is also tiring and people will tell you it's good for regeneration."
The Black Stars of Ghana, meanwhile, go into the game after their goalless draw at home to Uganda on Friday in their Russia 2018 qualifying opener.
The team put up what many criticized as a poor performance, and coach Avram Grant is hoping this friendly offers a chance for him to fix his team ahead of next month's crucial World Cup qualifying match day two clash with Egypt in Cairo.
"We are looking forward to this game - at the end of the day, the most important game is the next game," the Israeli said.
"We spoke a lot about the mentality with the players before the African Cup of Nations last year and we won the second game against Algeria. We then beat South Africa in the last game: we were 1-0 down and we won 2-1, so we showed a lot of mental strength. We have spoken a lot about this and we give tools to the players on how to use it and we want to see that against Egypt.''
Grant is adamant the absence of his injured trio Jonathan Mensah, Afriyie Acquah and Jordan Ayew - who didn't travel with the team - won't affect his chances of winning the game at the Moses Mabhida Stadium.
"Of course when you have a player that is good and is not in the team, we aren't happy," the former Chelsea manager said.
"But this is what we are facing and it has been the case over the last two years … there's been a lot of absent players that are key, but we did it without them and we did very well.
"We had a lot of chances to win the game [against Uganda], but that belongs in the past now and we have to look forward to the next game - that is what is important.''
Bafana Bafana will be without Tebogo Langerman, Hlompho Kekana and Keagan Dolly - all of whom have been released to join their club Mamelodi Sundowns ahead of this weekend's CAF Champions League final first leg against Zamalek. Kaizer Chiefs defender Erick Mathoho has also been excused to go grieve the loss of his brother, who died last week.
Coach Mashaba has already named his starting team: Brighton Mhlongo, Abbubaker Mobara, Isaac Nhlapo, Thulani Hlatshwayo (captain), Thabo Matlaba, Ayanda Patosi, Oupa Manyisa, Dean Furman, May Mahlangu, Eleazar Rodgers, Sibusiso Vilakazi.
Substitutes include: Jackson Mabokgwane, Itumeleng Khune, Ramahlwe Mphahlele, Maphosa Modiba, Mpho Makola, Thulani Serero, Mncwango, Thamsanqa Gabuza.
"There were always going to be changes in personnel but we thought because of the travelling, we needed some fresh legs hence we went for this team. It is a strong side that should compete,» he explained.
Ghana are without a win in their last two friendlies with South Africa. However, the Black Stars won their last meeting - a competitive fixture - last year at the Africa Cup of Nations in Equatorial Guinea with a 2-1 score.
The game kicks of a 19h00 South African time (5:00pm Ghana time).

Graduate Student Support
"It is telling that the Medical and Surgical Association is one of the first faces Graduate Students see at New Student Orientation. This exposure so early on in a student's career exemplifies the Association's commitment to enriching the lives of graduate students long before graduation day." -Kathleen C. Kent, Former President, Graduate Student Association
Unlike medical students, who together follow one curriculum to earn an M.D., graduate students at the School of Medicine pursue different paths to a range of advanced degrees, from anatomy to biomedical engineering to the M.A. in art as applied to medicine.
The Johns Hopkins Graduate Student Association unites these diverse students and represents their opinions and ideals to the faculty and administration. It also manages the issues that affect graduate students' daily lives, such as parking and health insurance, and organizes social, educational and career-oriented activities.
JHM&SA helps to support the GSA, co-sponsors social activities during Graduate Student Appreciation Week, and assists in scheduling Hopkins alumni to lecture at the GSA's seminar series. "Having contact with alumni is very useful for graduate students," says GSA former president Krishna Juluri, "because we can learn from their careers and experiences and benefit from networking with them."

Dental anaesthetic makes this poor guy think he's driving a race car
A HYSTERICAL video captures the effects of a dental anaesthetic on this patient – making him think he's a race car.
We have long understood the potential of anaesthesia – its use in medicine has doubtless saved millions of lives, with its painkilling and sedative attributes making difficult surgeries safe and viable.
But only recently are we beginning to understand the true potential of the anaesthetic – to embarrass and humiliate our friends and family.
The latest patient to fall victim to the ridiculousness of semi-lucid reality in the operating theatre is this poor soul who thought he had turned into a rally driver.
While undergoing routine surgery to remove his wisdom teeth, the unnamed man was transported into an alternative universe in which he was Colin McRae – a gear-shifting god amongst men.
Complete with sound effects and clutch control throughout, the hilarious video lasts a little over a minute.
The man's accomplice behind the camera spends most of the video stifling giggles while the dentist performing the procedure also can't help but chuckle at his patient's enthusiasm.
Since its inception back in 1846, doctors and researchers have understood and utilised the effects of anaesthesia but attempts to understand the medical mechanics involved in the induced loss of consciousness are still ongoing.
For example, a recently study claimed to have proven that rats can 'remember' some sensory experiences while under general anesthesia.
Although modern medicine has all but eliminated the danger in anaesthesia, the reason why some people behave so bizarrely while under the influence is still a happy medical mystery.
The clip comes days after a poor girl in the US woke up after having surgery seeing crazy hallucinations – to the amusement of her mum.

In an effort to allegedly avoid any further costs related to litigation, Dana Corp., an auto parts supplier based out of Toledo,
As of June 30, 150,000 asbestos lawsuits were pending against Dana, who recently filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 in 2006. According to official court documents, only around 7% of these claims involve cancer or mesothelioma.
If all claimants can provide proof to support their claims, the company expects to resolve around 7% of the mesothelioma lawsuits and 4% of the other cancer claims. Dana believes the remaining claims will be unaffected and bass through its bankruptcy. For more information, please contact the Mesothelioma Lawyers at Williams Kherkher by calling 1.800.220.9341.
