I think the big question is, what do you use your AR for? If you hunt with it at all, the Ps90 is in no way a replacement. Ps90 is not a good SHTF choice IMO either, because of availability of ammo.
Both are fun range guns. If at all possible, save up for the Ps90 and have both.
Since ammo has not become commonplace in the US, NO, it is not a good idea. The two carbines are not comparable in purpose or utility.
In life, strive to take the high road....It offers a better field of fire.
"Robo is right" Fuzzball
I concur. No to the PS90. 5.7 is a weak 5.56 round. Ammo is harder to come by and reload. The only advantage to 5.7 is weight and size.

A Guide to Nanny Background Checks
The Importance of References
Begin by gathering references during your first interview with a potential nanny. Ask him or her for the names and numbers of at least three former employers, plus the contact information for three personal references like a clergyman or former teacher. Don't accept best friends or relatives as references. You don't want to waste your time listening to someone's mother gush that, "Linda was so sweet with her baby dolls and was voted Most Popular in eighth grade!" or hear her best friend offer up tired cliché's like, "She's the kind of person that's always there for me! She's always there through thick and thin." That's all lovely, but it doesn't tell you the important stuff like how someone reacts under stress or if they learn best through verbal or written instruction.
Unless your nanny candidate is really on the ball, she won't have all those names and numbers handy, so give her a day or so to gather the necessary information for you. If she's only been a nanny to one or two other families, it's perfectly valid and sometimes helpful to contact her old boss from a restaurant or retail store. You may learn something by inquiring how many sick days she took in a year, if she was consistently punctual, and if she quickly adapted to new tasks or if was ever Employee of the Month.
Armed with a solid list of references, it's time to burn up the phone lines! The best time to call someone is generally in the evening. Due to Human Resource Department restrictions, many companies will only give out a person's date of employment. Even if you manage to get a manager on the phone, they are often reluctant to discuss former employees within earshot of the ones still there.
If you're having a hard time breaking the ice with an old boss at the office, politely offer to call him or her that evening after dinner. Something along the lines of, "You know, it's hard to talk about this stuff at work, and I'm probably interrupting important things you need to get done. Would it be too much trouble if we could continue the conversation this evening? Say around 7:00 PM?" Having a heart-to-heart chat later in the evening ensures that you're speaking to someone who's a bit more relaxed, with no worries of anyone listening in.

Crews at the U.S. Cellular Center in Cedar Rapids learned how to install the arena's basketball court Thursday.
It comes in more than 200 pieces that have to be put together and be perfectly aligned. The floor is portable can be laid down and taken apart at any time.
"The key is to make sure it's straight," said Greg Pierce with Robbins Sports Surfaces. "If the floor doesn't go down straight, then they just have all kinds of issues with large gaps and the locking devices don't line up and don't work."
The first time the floor will be used is when the Harlem Globetrotters come to town. That's scheduled to happen on Dec. 29.

Call (513) 541-6100 if you see a pet in trouble or to report a lost dog.
*Please note! To report an emergency or an animal cruelty situation, please CALL instead of emailing so we can respond to the situation as quickly as possible. Call (513) 541-6100 between 8 a.m. - 6 p.m. and (513) 825-2280 after 6 p.m.
SPCA Cincinnati would like people to know what the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says about avoiding dog attacks. Below are a list of recommendations from the CDC for dog attack prevention.
- Realistically evaluate environment and lifestyle and consult with a professional (e.g., veterinarian, animal behaviorist, or responsible breeder) to determine suitable breeds of dogs for consideration.
- Dogs with histories of aggression are inappropriate in households with children.
- Be sensitive to cues that a child is fearful or apprehensive about a dog and, if so, delay acquiring a dog.
- Spend time with a dog before buying or adopting it. Use caution when bringing a dog or puppy into the home of an infant or toddler.
- Spay/neuter virtually all dogs (this frequently reduces aggressive tendencies).
- Never leave infants or young children alone with any dog.
- Properly socialize and train any dog entering the household. Teach the dog submissive behaviors (e.g., rolling over to expose abdomen and relinquishing food without growling).
- Immediately seek professional advice (e.g., from veterinarians, animal behaviorists, or responsible breeders) if the dog develops aggressive or undesirable behaviors.
- Do not play aggressive games with your dog (e.g., wrestling).
Teach children basic safety around dogs and review regularly:
- Never approach an unfamiliar dog.
- Never run from a dog and scream.
- Remain motionless when approached by an unfamiliar dog (e.g., "be still like a tree").
- If knocked over by a dog, roll into a ball and lie still (e.g., "be still like a log").
- Never play with a dog unless supervised by an adult.
- Immediately report stray dogs or dogs displaying unusual behavior to an adult.
- Avoid direct eye contact with a dog.
- Do not disturb a dog who is sleeping, eating, or caring for puppies.
- Do not pet a dog without allowing it to see and sniff you first.
- If bitten, immediately report the bite to an adult.

Rob Kardashian has been battling his weight for a few years now. The "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star was spotted looking heavier as he hit the gym in L.A. this week, Us Weekly reported on Feb. 12.
According to the report, Rob is still struggling to lose weight as he battles the bulge by working out, and trying to eat healthy.
Rob Kardashian fans know that his weight gain come relatively quickly, and could be caused by some sort of medical condition, Kris Jenner revealed on a recent episode of 'KUWTK.'
"Rob is really depressed. He's not as close with his family right now, and he won't answer a lot of texts and calls from friends," a source revealed.
"Rob has a trainer he's supposedly working out with, but Rob rarely shows up for their sessions. He's not losing any weight. The family is very concerned about him," another insider added.
What do you think of Rob Kardashian's weight loss battle?

Color blindness
Color blindness is the inability to see certain colors in the usual way.
Alternative Names
Color deficiency; Blindness - color
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Color blindness occurs when there is a problem with the color-sensing granules (pigments) in certain nerve cells of the eye. These cells are called cones. They are found in the retina, the light-sensitive layer of tissue that lines the back of the eye.
If just one pigment is missing, you may have trouble telling the difference between red and green. This is the most common type of color blindness. If a different pigment is missing, you may have trouble seeing blue-yellow colors. People with blue-yellow color blindness usually have problems identifying reds and greens, too.
The most severe form of color blindness is achromatopsia. A person with this rare condition cannot see any color, so they see everything in shades of gray. Achromatopsia is often associated with lazy eye, nystagmus (small, jerky eye movements), severe light sensitivity, and extremely poor vision.
Most color blindness is due to a genetic problem. (See: X-linked recessive) About 1 in 10 men have some form of color blindness. Very few women are color blind.
The drug hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil) can also cause color blindness. It is used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, among other conditions.
Symptoms vary from person to person, but may include:
- Trouble seeing colors and the brightness of colors in the usual way
- Inability to tell the difference between shades of the same or similar colors
Often, the symptoms may be so mild that some people do not know they are color blind. A parent may notice signs of color blindness when a child is learning his or her colors.
Rapid, side-to-side eye movements (nystagmus) and other symptoms may occur in severe cases.
Signs and tests
Your doctor or eye specialist can check your color vision in several ways. Testing for color blindness is commonly done during an eye exam.
There is no known treatment. However, there are special contact lenses and glasses that may help people with color blindness tell the difference between similar colors.
Support Groups
Expectations (prognosis)
Color blindness is a lifelong condition. Most people are able to adjust to it without difficulty or disability.
People who are colorblind may not be able to get a job that requires the ability to see colors accurately. For example, electricians (color-coded wires), painters, fashion designers (fabrics), and cooks (using the color of meat to tell whether it's done) need to be able to see colors accurately.
Calling your health care provider
Make an appointment with your health care provider or ophthalmologist if you think you (or your child) have color blindness.

Mike Starr had addiction problems, but was on the road to recovery and didn't commit suicide, two of his friends said Wednesday, the day after the former Alice in Chains bassist was found dead in a Salt Lake City house.
Starr, who played bass for the seminal Seattle grunge band from its formation in 1987 to 1993, died nearly three weeks after being arrested by Salt Lake City police on Feb. 18.
Alice in Chains
The band was one of four Seattle bands — Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and Alice in Chains — that popularized the grunge movement in the early 1990s.
After Alice in Chains' breakthrough hit "Man in a Box" in 1990 brought the band mainstream success, the 1992 album "Dirt" was a commercial and critical success, and is now considered one of the most influential and harrowing albums released in the 1990s. Six of the 12 songs on the album dealt with addiction, and Starr was credited with co-writing the track "Rain When I Die."
When he left the band in 1993, Starr was replaced on bass by Mike Inez. The band broke up in the wake of lead singer Layne Staley's death from a drug overdose, but regrouped in 2008 and released the successful album "Black Gives Way to Blue."
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
"I don't think this was a suicide," said Brett Gunn of Salt Lake City, Starr's Alcoholics Anonymous sponsor. "We had a lot of plans."
Starr was living in the 1900 block of Richards Street with Spencer Roddan, a fellow musician who had known Starr for several years after being introduced to him by a friend, Travis Meeks. Roddan and Meeks met while in rehab at Utah's Cirque Lodge Drug Rehab Center in Sundance.
Meeks, the frontman of the rock band Days of the New, found Starr's body at about 1 p.m. Tuesday in Roddan's house.
"I don't think [his death] was intentional," said Roddan. "Our deal was he had to be clean. He said he was going to make me proud."
Starr has been living with Roddan for about six weeks. He and Meeks had been making music in Roddan's basement recording studio. Meeks had booked shows on the East Coast the weekend of March 18, Roddan said, and Starr was going to join him on the road.
Starr had other musical plans, Gunn said. He wanted to collaborate with Gunn's Salt Lake City band Nazty Habit, and had spoken of playing with hard-rock bands P.O.D. and Korn. He had much to live for, both Gunn and Roddan said, with Gunn adding that the two planned to go to California this weekend to pick up some of Starr's instruments.
The Utah State Medical Examiner's Office will perform an autopsy. But both Roddan and Gunn said they believe the death was caused by Starr using both methadone and other prescription drugs. During the Feb. 18 traffic stop, Starr was a passenger in Meeks' vehicle and was allegedly found with six Opana pain pills and six Alprazolam pills for which he did not have a prescription. He was charged by police with a third-degree felony and one class B misdemeanor count of possession or use of a controlled substance.
Gunn said Starr had been using Opana to deal with a recurring pain from an injury. He then began using anti-anxiety medication Alprazolam, a benzodiazepine usually referred to by its trade name, Xanax, after his February run-in with the law. Gunn said he didn't know Starr had been using the other medications while on methadone until after Starr's death, when Meeks told him.
Health Central.com reports that "the most dangerous combination is methadone with a benzodiazepine ... This combination can be fatal by stopping breathing." WebMd.com instructs patients taking methadone to tell their doctor or pharmacist if they are considering taking alprazolam because there is a risk of serious side effects, such as slow or shallow breathing."
The death came 18 years after Starr left Alice in Chains during the band's tour supporting their 1992 album "Dirt."
On Alice in Chains' website Wednesday, the band posted a note: "Members of Alice in Chains are mourning the loss of their friend and ask that the media respect their privacy — and the privacy of the Starr family — during this difficult time. Their thoughts & prayers are with the Starr family."
Starr returned to the limelight in 2010 when starred in the third season of the hit VH1 reality series, "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew [Pinsky]," which chronicled his attempts at beating his addiction to drugs. He then appeared in the spinoff series "Sober House," which documented his stay at a sober-living home.
In "Celebrity Rehab," Starr appeared with other patients, including actor Tom Sizemore and Mackenzie Phillips, and was often shown fighting with residents and workers at the Pasadena Recovery Center while detoxing.
In the fourth season of the show, Starr reappeared for one episode to talk to the latest cast in rehab about his ongoing fight for sobriety.
Drew Pinsky's publicist said Wednesday that Pinsky would have no further comment beyond the message he had posted on his Twitter account: "Devastating to hear of Mike Starr succumbing to his illness. So very sad. Our prayers are with his family."
Roddan said he is upset in the wake of Starr's death, and Gunn was still in disbelief. They prefer to remember Starr as a fun-loving jokester who loved eating gyros at local fast-food chain "Mad Greek."
"The night before he died, he said, 'Spencer, I love you,'" Roddan said.
"He was messed up and I didn't know what to do," said Gann about a conversation he had with Starr the night before he died. "I gave him a hug and said I loved him."

In addition to the original text, this first complete English translation of the work includes a historical essay by Luigi Ballerini and fifty modernized recipes by acclaimed Italian chef Stefania Barzini.The Art of Cooking, unlike the culinary manuals of the time, is a true gastronomic lexicon, surprisingly like a modern cookbook in identifying the quantity and kinds of ingredients in each dish, the proper procedure for cooking them, and the time required, as well as including many of the secrets of a culinary expert. In his lively introduction, Luigi Ballerini places Maestro Martino in the complicated context of his time and place and guides the reader through the complexities of Italian and papal politics. Stefania Barzini's modernized recipes that follow the text bring the tastes of the original dishes into line with modern tastes. Her knowledgeable explanations of how she has adapted the recipes to the contemporary palate are models of their kind and will inspire readers to recreate these classic dishes in their own kitchens. Jeremy Parzen's translation is the first to gather the entire corpus of Martino's legacy. less

Denisova hominin
The Denisova hominin (/dɨˈnɪsəvə/) is the name given to the remains of a member of the genus Homo that may be a previously unknown species based on an analysis of its mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). In March 2010, discovery was announced of bone fragments of a juvenile that lived about 41,000 years ago found in Denisova Cave (Altai Krai, Russia), a region also inhabited at about the same time by Neanderthals and modern humans.[1][2] The mtDNA of the Denisova hominin is distinct from the mtDNAs of Neanderthals and modern humans.[3] In December 2010, an international team of scientists determined the sequence from the nuclear genome of this group (known as the Denisovans) from this finger bone. According to their analysis, this group shares a common origin with the Neanderthals and interbred with the ancestors of modern Melanesians.[4]
Anatomy and lineage
Little is known of the precise anatomical features of the Denisovans since the only physical remains discovered thus far are the finger bone from which only mitochondrial genetic material was gathered. A tooth found in Denisova Cave carries a mtDNA very similar to that of the finger bone and shares no derived morphological features with Neanderthal or modern humans.[5] The Siberian bone's mtDNA differs from that of modern humans by 385 bases (nucleotides) in the mtDNA strand out of approximately 16,500, whereas the difference between modern humans and Neanderthals is around 202 bases. In contrast, the difference between chimpanzees and modern humans is approximately 1,462 mtDNA base pairs. Analysis of the specimen's genome shows it to be due to a common branch of ancestors with Neanderthal lineage, but, after they diverged from one another, Denisovans and Neanderthals had largely separated population histories.[1][4][5][6]
In 2008, Russian archeologists working at the site of Denisova Cave in the Altai Mountains of Siberia uncovered a small bone fragment from the fifth finger of a juvenile hominin, dubbed the "X-woman" (referring to the maternal descent of mitochondrial DNA[6]), or the Denisova hominin. Artifacts, including a bracelet, excavated in the cave at the same level were carbon dated to around 40,000 BP.
A team of scientists led by Johannes Krause and Swedish biologist Svante Pääbo from the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, sequenced mtDNA extracted from the fragment. Because of the cool climate in the location of the Denisova Cave, the discovery benefited from DNA's ability to survive for longer periods at lower temperatures.[2] The analysis indicated that modern humans, Neanderthals, and the Denisova hominin last shared a common ancestor around 1 million years ago.[3] Some studies suggest that modern humans coexisted with Neanderthals in Europe, and the discovery raises the possibility that Neanderthals, modern humans and the Denisovan hominin may have co-existed.[citation needed]
The DNA analysis further indicated that this new hominin species was the result of an early migration out of Africa, distinct from the later out-of-Africa migrations associated with Neanderthals and modern humans, but also distinct from the earlier African exodus of Homo erectus.[3] Professor Chris Stringer, human origins researcher at London's Natural History Museum and one of the leading proponents of the recent single-origin hypothesis, remarked: "This new DNA work provides an entirely new way of looking at the still poorly understood evolution of humans in central and eastern Asia." Pääbo noted that the existence of this distant branch creates a much more complex picture of humankind during the Late Pleistocene.[6]
Later in 2010, a second paper from the Svante Pääbo group reported the prior discovery, in 2000, of a third upper molar from a young adult, dating from about the same time (the finger was from level 11 in the cave sequence, the tooth from level 11.1). The tooth differed in several aspects from those of Neanderthals while having archaic characteristics similar to the teeth of Homo erectus. They again performed mitochondrial DNA analysis on the tooth and found it to have a different but similar sequence to that of the finger bone, indicating a divergence time about 7,500 years before, and suggesting it belonged to a different individual from the same population.[5]
Nuclear genome analysis
In the same second 2010 paper, the authors report the isolation and sequencing of nuclear DNA from the Denisova finger bone. This specimen showed an unusual degree of DNA preservation and low level of contamination. They were able to achieve near-complete genomic sequencing, allowing a detailed comparison with Neanderthal and modern humans. From this analysis, they concluded that in spite of the apparent divergence of their mitochondrial sequence, the Denisova population along with Neanderthal shared a common branch from the lineage leading to modern African humans. The estimated time of divergence between Denisovans and Neanderthals is 640,000 years ago, and that between both these groups and modern Africans is 804,000 years ago. They suggest that the divergence of the Denisova mtDNA results either from the persistence of a lineage purged from the other branches of humanity through genetic drift or else an introgression from an older hominin lineage.[5]
Interbreeding with modern humans
In addition to genetic studies linking approximately 4% of non-African modern human DNA to Neanderthals, these tests comparing the Denisova hominin genome with those of six modern humans whose genome has been sequenced, a ǃKung from South Africa, a Nigerian, a French person, a Papua New Guinean, a Bougainville Islander and a Han Chinese showed that between 4% and 6% of the genome of Melanesians (represented by the Papua New Guinean and Bougainville Islander) derives from a Denisovan population, possibly introduced during the early migration of the ancestors of Melanesians into Southeast Asia. This history of interaction suggests that Denisovans once ranged widely over eastern Asia.[5]

There's never an easy, painless way to break up with someone, you just gotta do it— and the sooner the better.
Just tell her you want a different lifestyle than she does. No hard feelings and you totally understand why she wants to party and have fun and stuff, but it's just not where you're at and it's time to go your separate ways.

Epiretinal membrane ('ERM') formation is also called cellophane maculopathy or macular pucker. It is not a type of macular degeneration.
The central part of the retina is affected. A very thin film or membrane develops on the surface of the retina. This membrane, very like 'cling-film', starts to shrink, and this causes wrinkling of the retina.
The wrinkling may be mild, in which case surgery is not recommended.
In such a patient the sight would be good or reasonable, and stable
and not getting worse.
Leaflet Moorfields Epiretinal membrane.
The vision can be affected in various ways.
If the sight does get worse and the wrinkling increase, then surgery may be recommended. Only ~30% people notice an increase in the wrinkling, and their sight will deteriorate over months or a year. In this group of patients surgery improves sight in ~80%. Eye 2011. Photoreceptor damage JAMA 2013. Surgery is not recommended in 'mild' or 'early' membrane formation.
See ERM cause animation.
When the vitreous shrinks (posterior vitreous detachment (a PVD), it may release cells from the surface of the retina. These cells migrate and start to 'grow' on the surface of the retina near the macula, and then the retina start to shrink. See ERM cause animation.
The condition occurs as people get older. We do not know the exact cause, but various conditions stimulate growth factor release, and these promote the growth of the membrane.
It may be related to other conditions with retinal damage, including Retina 2011 Yazici, retinal tear (1/30), retinal vein occlusion, laser treatment
This patient has had an ERM for 4 years. The vision was 6/9 and has deteriorated a tiny amount to 6/12, with a lttle distortion. The ERM is seen as wrinkling on the OCT (blue arrow below). The entire central retina is thicker than the opposite eye (OCT and photo just further below).
The surgery starts by passing small instruments through very small holes. Then the vitreous is removed. (The vitreous is the jelly in the middle of the eye..this part of the operation is called a 'vitrectomy').The membrane is then peeled off and removed. animation. The vitreous is replaced with clear fluid.
Such vitrectomy surgery for ERM may be helpful if there is distortion of vision, or if the sight is worse than 6/12. Removing the ERM will usually help reduce the distortion, but may not improve the visual acuity. The more opaque the membrane, the more the benefit. The best results are for patients whose sight is <6/18, and whose sight has deteriorated in the last 6 months.
Early surgery may help Eye 14.
As with any operation there are risks. The main risks are complications
such as infection and retinal detachment, both of which can be
very serious and cause severe loss of sight.
The risk of such a major problem is probably about 2% (1 in 50). Many patients will develop a cataract, and there are a number of minor problems (and rarely more serious problems) that can develop.

ABC's new drama, Nashville (premieres Wednesday at 10 p.m. ET), is about the country music biz, politics and the power struggles that crop up in both. It's also about the triumphant return of Connie Britton to your TV set. After wowing viewers on Friday Night Lights and American Horror Story, the beloved actress is finally headlining a series. Granted, she shares the spotlight with Heroes' alum Hayden Panettiere, but that fact only accentuates the narrative the series will tell.
Britton, 45, plays Rayna, a country music icon whose career is fading. Panettiere, 23, plays a sexy country newcomer, Juliette, whose star is rising fast. From the moment Rayna is forced to open for Juliette, the two are rivals. Britton told USA Today that several different country stars inspired her character, including Faith Hill, Reba McEntire, Patty Loveless and Bonnie Raitt. Panettiere didn't mention any direct muses for the Juliette character, but said she took dance cues from watching Carrie Underwood.
"She's one of those girls that doesn't do the whole dancing-around-choreography thing but has that stage presence like no other," Panettiere said. "She can just stand there and be incredibly interesting."
The conflict between traditional, authentic country music and the sexier, pop version actually began heating up more than a decade ago, when Shania Twain barnstormed the industry with her teeny outfits and Top 40 tunes. (Remember "Man, I Feel Like A Woman" and "You're Still the One"?) But the dichotomy remains today, with pop-oriented singers like Underwood and Taylor Swift still hoarding most of the radio airtime and glory. Bonnie Raitt's still around, but she's not making headlines for her music, or, for that matter, tempestuous relationships with guys like John Mayer.
But Nashville is definitely not a sad testament to this phenomenon. "My hope with this show is to not dwell too much on the, 'Oh, well once you hit 40, the business doesn't want you anymore,'" Britton told USA Today. "Because frankly, that's not my experience. I've been able to play some of the most interesting characters and have had some of the greatest success once I hit 40."
Lots of TV pundits agree. Mary McNamara of The L.A. Times is among the many critics calling Britton one of the "reasons to watch" Nashville.
And, not a fan of country music? Who cares! "[Nashville] is far from a show about country music," says Callie Khouri, the show's creator, who also happens to have picked up an Oscar for writing the screenplay for Thelma and Louise. "It has characters that are real, they're layered, they're complicated, they're terrible, they're fantastic, they're all the things that people are."
Consider our interest piqued! Take a look at what's in store tonight:

I Rallied to Cover a $3,000 Medical Bill

I love your maney saving ideas. I always come away with a little something I can use. :)ReplyDelete
It can be expensive if it happens all at once. Though you can opt for other dental services available.ReplyDelete
I couldn't imagine how painful that must be for your child. It's already painful to have one tooth extraction. I think you might be interested to get porcelain veneers in Beverly Hills for your child after this one.ReplyDelete
$3000 bill for several dental workouts is indeed huge and expensive. Have you clearly checked your bill? There must be some discrepancies. Anyway, I hope that you were able to resolve that issue.ReplyDelete
Medical Billing Specialist
I would have rallied if I were there too. I think the medical insurance that we have should be used to the limit because it's quite expensive. My dentist in buckhead even suggested that it should also include dental health provisions.ReplyDelete
3000 is a big amount for a teeth extraction but in my opinion its its worth it. The fact that it will cost more when you let it to be worse. I visit my dentist twice a year for my check up so my teeth are in good condition.ReplyDelete
Seriously 3000 bucks is a huge chunk of money but the fact that your kids now are safe is more valuable than cash. Check up is really important I do mine for every 6 months at dorchester dentists and they are really good.ReplyDelete
Right Eden. 3000 bucks is nothing for the kids health. Maybe tomorrow ill visit my local dentist for my check up and they do some cosmetic dentist boca raton too.ReplyDelete
How much were left on your savings after spending three grand for the dental work? I have heard similar stories by dentists in rockford il having the same client as you are. I'm glad your children are ok by now.ReplyDelete
$3000 for dental bills? Oh my god! Did you have to overhaul your kids entire mouth? I would never have anything near that amount with my dentist in germantown tn at least.ReplyDelete
Woah that is a lot of money just for dental procedures? 3000 dollars is a huge amount for me. My dentist in las vegas doesn't even ask for that much! Not even near.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousAugust 1, 2012 at 4:31 PM
Spending $ 3,000 for a dental procedure is a big amount. I don't get why your dental specialist charged you that much. It is heavy on the pocket in light of the fact that you are saving money.ReplyDelete
Spending $ 3,000 for a dental procedure is a huge amount. I don't get why your dental specilaist charged you that much.lexington dentistReplyDelete
I understand where you're coming from. I've had several treatments and procedures done with the dentist bartlett clinic but never have I been charged such exorbitant amount for dental procedures alone! That is preposterous to say the least.ReplyDelete
I agree. Hope it doesn't affect dental insurance. But another upside for me is my dentist from dentistry in atlanta has a quite affordable price.ReplyDelete

Hello everyone.
"Oh, you haven't fought with me to know. I'm very stubborn when I argue. I have to be right." Kat tilted her head and nodded, looking at him. "As well as GHB, right? Love, devotion and GHB. The perfect strawberries." She smiled big and picked up the puppy, setting her on her chest. "I claimed that spot first though. It's mine." She giggled and kissed the puppy's head. "I don't always talk about it. It's just one of my favorite movies. The eighties have better movies than now. And you cannot deny that. Specially with a character name like Long Duck Dong." She nodded and raised her eyebrows, smiling as the pup fell asleep on her chest,
He smiled and nodded his head, laughing. He watched the puppy squirm in her arms for a few minutes, before setting her head on her chest and yawning. "Looks like it's past Lucky's bedtime." He raised a brow as the puppy opened one eye, before yawning and closing them both again. He laughed quietly and kissed Kat's cheek, pressing play on the DVD remote, to start the movie. "Well, you're right. I like that name so I suppose these movies are good." He stuck out his tongue at her and smiled. "Watch out, she barks in her sleep sometimes."
"Oh my. Arthur may not like that having a dog bigger than him. He's quite short, but fat. He needs to go on a diet." Kat giggled and shook her head. "No, I'm really not. You just don't know what you are talking about. I'm way too stubborn. Which is probably why Mom and I fought to begin with. I never back down and that's a problem." She covered her mouth with her hand and shook her head. "Oh my gosh! Really? Does this mean I'm going to get some weird disease now? Or is there some sort of drug to put me to sleep so you can take advantage of me?" She giggled and kissed his cheek, licking the chocolate off of his face. "I love them. Thank you so much, Ri." She smiled big, taking a spot on his chest.
Riley laughed quietly and rolled his eyes. "Now now, you're not so stubborn…sort of." He nudged her playfully and laughed, wrinkling his nose as her tongue crossed his cheek. "No! It meant I put so much love and devotion into making these strawberries!" He grinned and nodded, shrugging his shoulders in the process as Lucky moved from his arms to lazily lay at his feet. "Oh, she is not happy with you right now. She's been sleeping there for DAYS." He winked playfully at Kat and let his arm encircle her waist. "What's that movie you're always talking about…sixteen candles? …I have it over there if you want me to pop it into the DVD player."
"Thanks. It was kind of one of those names where I thought was crazy at first, but now that it's his name, I can't see it being anything else." She smiled big and nodded her head. "Thankfully she's still small." She looked over at him and smiled, setting her hand on his face. "You are amazing, Riley. I really don't know what I did to get you." She kissed him before nodding her head, biting her lip at the thought of chocolate covered strawberries. "You really went all out did you?" Standing up, she went to the fridge and got a few, carrying them back to where they were resting. She gave him one and smiled, then ate one herself, smiling as she ate it. "It's so good. Oh my gosh."
He laughed quietly and nodded. "She was much smaller when I got her. I know she's going to be a big one though. Look at her legs." He smiled and picked up the little puppy, cradling her in his arms. "Oh shush, you're amazing Kat. I'm the lucky one, and you know it." He laughed and kissed her back, the puppy squirming in his arms. He nodded and grinned widely, running his fingers over the dog's fur as she let her eyes fall shut. He cradled the now sleeping puppy in one hand and took the strawberry with the other, taking a bite, and licking the chocolate from his bottom lip. "I made em!" He said, quite proudly before finishing off the strawberry. "I'm glad you like them."
"How cute. I don't really know how I came up with Arthur. It just came to me when I saw him and that was his name. Taylor always teases me cause his name is Arthur." She smiled and nodded. "Good. I don't care to ruin anything we have tonight." Standing up, she put on his sweatpants, smiling as she curled back up to him. Kat giggled as Lucky snuggled up to her and the blonde started to pet her. "Awe, she can stay. It's not like she's making a disturbance, right?" Laying her head on the boy's chest, she petted the dog and closed her eyes. "This is one of those moments I never want to forget."
"I like the name Arthur." He smiled and took a deep breath, and rolled his eyes. "No, she's not. She's already taken a liking to you, so I guess I won't force her to go." He ran his fingers through her hair and sighed softly, shaking his head. "Never in any moment of the world would I forget this…no matter where you are." He smiled and reached for one of the waters on the side table, before opening it and taking a few sips. "There's chocolate strawberries in the fridge…if you want some."
"What names do you even like?" She smiled and rested her head on his shoulders. "Nothing is in stone, yet. I still have a ton of things to do before I leave, which means I may not leave for a few months. And if things don't work out medically and such, I can't go. Who knows what will happen. I know what you mean. I hated not being near you. But this is my dream, Riley. I have always wanted to help other people out and this is my chance. But look, I don't want to talk about it. I want to spend the time with you and be happy that I have such an amazing man in my life." She nodded and kissed him, pulling away. "Let's just ignore everything, please. I want us to have a good night together."
"Maybe I'll call her…Lucky. You know, like one of the dalmatians from the movies." He smiled and kissed her back, gazing into her eyes for a few moments. "Fine- we'll talk about this another time but tonight…it's just you and me." He whispered softly, wrapping an arm around her before he pressed his lips to hers again, more softly than before. "If you want to get comfortable, there's clothes there for you…or if you brought your own, that's cool too." He muttered quietly and stood up, stretching his arms over his head before dropping them to his sides. "I think I'll put…Lucky…in the other room." The dog barked in protest and snuggled against Kat, before settling at his feet and rolling on her back for a tummy rub. He laughed quietly and rubbed her stomach, rolling his eyes slightly. "Or not…"
"You should probably do that first." Kat giggled and nodded her head. "Yeah, I know I should have came here, but I just went to the closest house. I was too much of a mess to go farther in a car. Scarlette is good. We watched movies all night last night and ate ice cream today. I heard from my sister that Mama cooled down some, but I didn't want to go over right away. I want to give her a few days." Kat smiled as he kissed her, her eyes closing to kiss him back. "I got you that ticket to visit me. I know that it's a really long trip. But I'm going to miss you and I want to see you. I got one for Alaska too. You guys are important to me and I can't think about going six months without seeing you guys at least once. But these tickets, are good for four trips. I used my college fund to get them. I can't go without you." Kat rubbed her lips and sighed. "I mean, I know that I made the decision, but I'm terrified. This is another country. Somewhere I have never been. I would love to know that there are people that I love coming to see me. I love you, Riley. I don't want this to end because of distance."
"I can't think of a name for her…" He shrugged his shoulders and smiled. "I trust her more than I trust a lot of people here- and she doesn't even like me." He laughed quietly and nodded, before a serious look took over his features. "I'm going to miss you too Kat…but months without seeing you…that'll kill me. I was so distraught after not seeing you for almost a month…and now this…" He sighed softly and ran a hand through his hair, suddenly not in the mood much for what he had planned for the night. Part of him wanted to beg, plead her to stay here with him, and part of him wanted to get angry- but the look in her eyes and the determination in her face quickly put it aside. "We'll see…okay…I've never done the distance thing and we'll just…see."
Smiling as she looked down at the dog, Kat bent over and petted her. "She's so cute. Have you figured out a name yet?" Picking the puppy up, Kat smiled as she looked down, rubbing her nose against the dog's. "I miss my dog so much. Ugh." She hated not being around Arthur. She didn't realize how hard it was to actually be away from him. "This is amazing. I can't believe you did this." She walked over and smiled, kissing him again. "This is perfect. But, I think I should tell you what has been going on first. Figured you should know everything." Kat sat down and took a deep breath, her right hand starting to play with the ring that was on her finger. "I'm living at Scarlette's. Well, staying. Mama kicked me out. Well, not really, but she is mad and I had to get out of there for a little." Looking up at him, she pulled out a plane ticket that she bought for Riley, letting him look at it first. "I am going to do the Corps. I can't imagine doing anything else. And it's all I want to do. Mom found out and that's why she's angry. But, I can't go to college when my passion is helping others out." The blonde lowered her head, realizing that Riley will probably be mad. "I realized it while I was in Mexico. Seeing the smiles on the kids faces, I had to change. I can't be the person everyone wants me to be."
"I haven't found one for her yet to be totally honest." He laughed quietly and bit his bottom lip softly, a flash of worry moving through his features. He pressed their lips together briefly and sat next to her, his arm wrapping around her waist. "She…what…" He ran a hand through his hair, and relaxed slightly when she said that she had somewhere to stay…although he had wished she came to him first, he knew that Scarlette was someone he could trust. He held the plane ticket in his hand, confusion now evident in his eyes, before he raised them back to her. "If it's what you want to do Kat…why would it be my place- or anyone else's to hold you back from that?" He tilted her head up with his finger and placed the plane ticket to the side as he pressed their lips together in a soft kiss. "I love you, and I'd do anything for you…I don't exactly know what you want me to do with that ticket…but…" He took a deep breath. "If you want to go…go."
Staying at Scarlette's was definitely different than being at home. Surprised that the Blonde's parents actually liked her, Kat told them she was going to see her boyfriend and they smiled and nodded, letting her go. Getting a small travel bag, Kat set it in the car and turned it on going over to the boy's house. She got out and stood up, feeling odd with jeans on instead of a dress. She fixed her hoodie and grabbed the back, pulling out the key to get inside his house. She opened it and her mouth dropped, slowly turning into a big smile. "What is this?!" She giggled and walked to him, hugging him tight. "I missed you so much. So happy to be back." She smiled big and rested her head on his chest, realizing that he had no idea that she wasn't at home, but at the moment, she didn't care to talk about it. She just needed that time with him and that's all she really cared about. "You are too much, okay? You are perfect." She shook her head and looked around, seeing the movies she loved sitting there. "How did I get you?"
Riley almost forgot that Kat had a key, so when he heard the door open, he was a bit startled- the next thing he knew he was wrapping his arms around his girlfriend and holding her closely against him, as the puppy wiggled around and barked at the two of them. He laughed quietly and kissed the top of her head, wrapping his arms around her waist as he watched her let it sink in. "This- is our date. I spent all afternoon building that blanket fort because the puppy kept messing it up, but she's on her best behavior now…I hope." He laughed quietly and rolled his eyes, gesturing towards the clothes he set out for her. "If you want to get comfortable, there's some of my clothes for you…I don't really know. Sometimes I think I should be asking that because honestly I wonder why me…" He bit his lip softly and took a deep breath. "Whatever you want to start with- it's your choice. Tonight is all about you."
Oh, I guess that means you're really good. Maybe I'll come to a game and make fun of you and criticize you about things I know nothing about once in a while. I don't really want to talk about it. Thanks, though. I just need to get my head on right.
Hey, we could always use someone to mock us. Alright, if it makes you feel better- I'm always here. No worries.

You had me at "bacon"! So I tried this recipe, and let me tell you - my family went ape over it. Not too salty, despite having bacon, parmesan cheese, AND buttermilk ranch mix. The black pepper was the perfect touch. I imagine it would also go really well with an ice cold beer.

1987 Yamaha XVZ1300D Venture Royale from United States of America
Power, comfort, smooth as butter on the highway
Air ride is currently not working. will check the circuit board. Other than that... Nothing.
General Comments:
Crazy powerful for a heavy bike.
Crazy comfortable.
Crazy good gas mileage for a heavy bike.
I love, love, love this bike. Will never get rid of it.
Would you buy another motorcycle from this manufacturer? Yes
Review Date: 7th October, 2010
16th Jan 2012, 10:56
I found a 1989 Venture Royale with extremely low miles. 3900 at the time of purchase. The gas mileage stinks, only about 35 mpg. It appears some previous owner messed with the carbs and jetted them. Would that cause my low mileage? Can I change it back to stock?
Other than that, the bike is awesome. Handles great, runs awesome, and all day long comfort.
