A few years on and the role of the channel has not only been revived and augmented, but a number of trends appear set to propel the channel to a position of even greater prominence. In fact, four key developments in the IT industry – some recent, some having gained momentum over time – look likely to usher in what might be called a new 'golden age of the channel.
The aim of this report is to examine those trends, how the diversifying role of the channel, rising costs of customer acquisition, increased industry consolidation in four primary verticals, and the tech market's thinning out amid COVID-19 will all ultimately deepen vendor, partner and customer reliance on the channel for the marketing and sale of IT products.

Conservatives thought they had a chief justice who would refrain from legislating from the bench. They were wrong.
On Thursday, the Supreme Court delivered another major victory to ObamaCare, voting 6-3 in King v. Burwell to uphold the subsidies at the heart of the sweeping health care reform law. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts — appointed by George W. Bush, and once a beloved figure on the right — wrote the majority opinion, joined by the court's liberal wing and swing Justice Anthony Kennedy.
This isn't the first time Roberts has sided with the left on ObamaCare. And as a result, my fellow conservatives are comparing Roberts quite ignominiously to David Souter.
Souter, of course, was appointed by Bush 41, and turned out to be a huge disappointment to conservatives who were already tired of being let down by Republican SCOTUS appointments. (Looking at you, Earl Warren.)
But here's the thing: In the wake of Roe v. Wade, and after bitter fights over the Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas nominations, conservatives thought they had figured it out. The right created an impressive infrastructure and network to identify and promote conservative lawyers, clerks, and would-be judges. And along the way, conservatives settled on a judicial criteria that went something like this: Judges should interpret the law, not legislate from the bench. John Roberts was supposed to be the perfect example of someone who had come up through the ranks, and would render decisions accordingly.
The irony here isn't that a Republican-appointed Supreme Court chief justice has twice preserved the landmark legislation of Barack Obama. The irony — and heartache, for conservatives — is that on both occasions, Roberts has had to employ judicial gymnastics to rationalize his decision. In the King v. Burwell decision, Roberts chose to ignore the letter of the law — no matter how specious or unintentional the letter may have been — and instead, divine the law's intent.
More irony ahead. Keep reading…

Choreography Showreel
Work with Melody
If you would like to work with Melody for your upcoming project, please fill out the form to the right and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
What people are saying...
"Cloud Dance Festival saw a welcome return of contemporary jazz company Sol Dans to which founder and choreographer Melody Squire never seems to fail to reap energy across the stage in abundance. In broaching the subject of our economic downfall, Squire uses modern day fairytale to play out the demise of a community in Grimm Times. Her choreography is fabulously unique, mesmerising imagery fills the stage again, repeating the beauty we saw in her last work for Cloud Dance Festival, Ebullition." – Susanne Allen
"Choreography by Melody Squire captures the dance styles of the time and on
a tiny stage produces some well honed and slick routines. " Philip Herbert for Remotegoat
"Sol Dans, on the other hand, is a company bursting with ideas, and Melody Squire showed in Groundlings that she is a choreographer to be reckoned with. She was born in Chicago, and it shows, with jazz influences running deep in her vocabulary – Groundlings is American energy as we like it, physical and daring. The six dancers come out as tribal creatures, at once birds and panthers, their wild hair and painted bodies an indication of the form of ritual to come. The choreography hurls them into playful, energetic groups, and is only interrupted by the ribbons of cling film hanging around the stage – giving us the strange, beautiful image of animals suddenly trapped. Watch out for the future choreographic developments of Sol Dans – their escapism is very welcome."-Laura Cappelle
Dolly Day Dream: "...exceptionally well choreographed for such a small stage by Melody Squire" -Vicky York
"Abeyance, choreographed by American choreographer Melody Squire, is a beautiful lyrical jazz piece set in two parts. Seductive and sensual, the technical dancers convey the complexities of modern romance with envious strength and emotion." -Jennifer Teale
"Sol Dans continued the momentum with an intelligent, tongue-in-cheek mashup of children's stories including Rumplestiltskin and Red Riding Hood. Grimm Times effortlessly blended the best of hip-hop, contemporary and jazz movement with stylish costuming and an effective 'scene by scene' structure to create something wholly innovative and highly entertaining…Sol Dans seem a company capable of exciting things if they continue to push and refine their very unique offering." – Lesley Perez
"Choreographer Melody Squire of Sol Dans has yet again produced top-quality work with her new piece Ebuillition." -Debbie Shine
"Sol Dans Company's Grimm Times, choreographed by Melody Squire, fused an array of styles such as physical theatre, contemporary and hip hop dance in an exciting number that depicted the struggles of individuals living in a deprived economic climate. With breathtaking lifts and balances set to a pounding dub-step inspired score, this was a refreshing insightful work." --Rachael Nanyonjo

A few good reads
One of the cheapest pleasures in life is getting unexpectedly lost in a good book. It can while away hours of a rainy weekend, take your mind away from the stresses of everyday life, or pass time between bar breaks on a beach holiday. So to celebrate World Book Night – taking place on 23 April – we thought we'd share a few of the books we're currently reading – from new bestsellers to old favourites.
World book night inspiration
Whether it's for World Book Night, or inspiration for an upcoming holiday break, here's a few books we're currently reading and enjoying at Janes HQ.
The Beach, Alex Garland – Libby
Some people hate re-reading books, but I personally love it. Recently, I decided to pick up a book I read when I was 16 and travelling around Malaysia on a World Challenge expedition. The Beach by Alex Garland, will always remind me of the incredible adventure I had on the other side of the world. It was a great book to read whilst travelling, as the plot follows a young backpacker's search for a legendary, idyllic and isolated beach untouched by tourism. The description of the places he sees and the people he meets is extremely relatable if you, yourself have travelled. Don't be put off if you have seen the film adaptation of it though, the book is ten times better.
The Versions of Us, Laura Bennett – Nell
I'm quite a quick reader and when I find a book I'm enjoying I just can't put it down, even if it means reading into the wee small hours. Most recently I enjoyed reading The Versions of Us by Laura Barnett. It follows three separate versions of one couple's reality, exploring the ways in which small decisions can have a huge impact on the outcome of their lives. It made me both happy and sad as I was reading it, and I have thought about it a few times since finishing it which I always think is the sign of a good book or film. Another favourite of mine is The Divine Secret of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood by Rebecca Wells. I've read it about 6 times already and I still never tire of it!
The Piper's Son, Melina Marchetta – Whitney
I don't make a habit of reading Aussie literature, but I've been really missing home lately so decided to revisit one of my favourite childhood authors: Melina Marchetta. She's the award-winning writer behind Looking for Alibrandi, a cult classic from the '90s which, if you haven't already seen the film adaptation of ladies, you absolutely must! Her latest rom-drama novel, The Piper's Son is about the impact on a family after losing one of their own in the London Tube attacks. To be honest, it's becoming a realisation that I may have just grown out of her style of writing…it has been 10 years or more since we last shared a page. Nonetheless, I can never ditch a book once I've started (I did manage to conquer The Goldfinch, after all).
The Time Traveller's Wife, Audrey Niffenegger – Holly
I was a bit late to the party with this one. It is one of those books that everyone raves about and then it puts me off because I don't want to be that predictable! But it came to the point where a close friend recommended The Time Traveller's Wife and trusting her judgement I went ahead and bought it. I have to say, I really, really enjoyed it. I liked the jumping through time aspect and having to engage my mind to this "right, how old is he now? What's happened and what hasn't?". I love that the story builds and you are so invested in the characters, although I do wish the ending was a bit different. It does get a bit of a bad rap by some readers expecting too much from it and then being disappointed. Nevertheless, I would recommend this book, but I suspect everyone has already read it!
The Miniaturist, Jessie Burton – Sophie
In a desperate effort to be cultured I joined a book club at work. The Miniaturist is set in 17th century Amsterdam, centred around an 18-year-old woman who gets married-off to some rich trader bloke. Her fella gives her a dolls house to keep her busy (I know the Internet didn't exist then, but really?). And the illusive miniaturist who made it has given the teeny models in it some spooky witchcraft qualities. There's adultery, murder, hidden pregnancies – you name it. There was so much scandal I felt like Jezza Kyle was about to crouch out into a scene at any moment. Burton also threw in every issue possible – racism, homophobia, elitism, sexism – which I think was OTT, but equally interesting to see how discrimination might have played out. I did enjoy The Miniaturist and it was interesting to hear about 17th century Amsterdam, which I had zero knowledge of beforehand. Just don't be expecting a high brow affair, expect a few sordid ones.
All the Light We Cannot See, Anthony Doeer – Becky
I picked this up after seeing someone reading it on a train – the title piqued my curiosity. Set in World War II, the two main plotlines of All the Light We Cannot See swing between young Werner – a Nazi cadet in training in Germany – and Marie-Laure, a blind teenage girl in occupied France. It's a dense read – lots of wonderfully descriptive text, which is fabulous once you get into the rhythm, but harder to read if you only have a few mins at night before dropping off to sleep. I'm halfway through so far and some of the Werner sections are tough reading – exposing human cruelty at its most raw in the way that the cadets are treated in training camp. Worth a go if you fancy something a bit outside your comfort zone.
That's a few of our recommendations to inspire you to pick up a paperback.
Are you getting involved with World Book Night? Let us know – @tweetjanes.

I've got quite a few extras that need new homes. Everything is FT/FO.
Since I don't have a ton of feedback here, here's my feedback at a couple other places:
Condition Overview
- All games are tested and functional, unless explicitly stated otherwise.
- All cart batteries are original and were working when tested within the last year (except where noted).
- All carts have been thoroughly cleaned inside and out (except where noted).
- In general, everything is in pretty good shape. I try to be very thorough with my condition descriptions, so often it may sound worse than it is. If you're unsure, feel free to ask for photos!
- Manuals are generally in decent shape; most have some minor usage wear. Any significant flaws are noted.
- Cardboard boxes are, for the most part, well worn, but structurally sound.
Terms / Preferences
- Prefer to keep transactions at or above ~$20 in value, especially for trades.
- In general, I'll probably give a better deal to trade for things from my want list than for buying outright.
- Prefer to keep CIB (and to a lesser extent CI, CB, IB) together, but might be willing to split them up for the right deal.
- May consider taking CIB for games that I only need C, I, or CI for, if you don't want to split up your CIB, especially for lower value games.
- Only looking to trade within the US for now, sorry.

Whether playing online is some sort of significant pastime for you or a simple pastime, picking out between the hundreds of on the net casinos accessible on-line nowadays can be rather frustrating. After all, every on the internet game player has their unique unique style, likes, disfavors and preferred games. Just simply as every single participant is usually different, so are on the net casinos. Beneath are often the basics to bear in mind when shopping all around to have an online gambling establishment that will fulfill your gambling needs and after that quite a few.
It's All About the particular Games
When that comes to online internet casinos, I visit play and I have fun with in order to win. But first of all and foremost, I appear to play. That means the fact that you're not going to be able to stick around playing a new game you don't enjoy. Even if you take up a game popular among most casinos like poker, in the event the interface is poor you are all nevertheless guaranteed to produce a rapid "exit. "
For the reason that on the web casinos only feature video games where wagers are participating, an individual may well think the options are limited, but you could hardly be farther from typically the simple fact. Many companies satisfaction themselves about thinking outdoors the box and presenting new and innovative activities that raise the bar in terms of graphics, sound together with playability. The idea is a great idea to get an plan of which online gambling dens hold games that a person are interested in playing. Companies like Rival and Cryptologic are just a pair of of the countless top online casino software suppliers that push the bag using every game they place away.
Also know of which each program service provider has their own type. Compete with, as I pointed out previously mentioned, has stellar games, nevertheless tends to accommodate for you to the more radiant crowd involving online casino people. These people focus more on images and games that entice "video gamers" more as compared to someone else. Where as Cryptologic has a knack with regard to taking classic games together with making them fresh in addition to thrilling again.
Banking Features
Naturally people when participating in on-line, one wants in order to make sure that they are able to access their money because quickly and even conveniently since possible. Most on the net gambling dens offer simple playing techniques whereby you pay in income into a great be aware of apply inside that particular on the web on line casino. Still, not any casino operates the very same way. RTG plus Playtech incorporate their own computer software solutions to manage dollars when Cryptologic uses "Ecash. inch
Look for Expert Reviews
A web-based casino is going to tell you anything and even everything to get you to risk at his or her online gambling establishment. Can you blame them all? They want to create money. The idea is at his or her best interest to sell their own online casino like the biggest and the best. Therefore, your best bet on researching an on-line online casino is to seek for customer evaluations about gambling review sites.
On-line gamers are passionate about often the casinos they love plus venomous towards those that they hate. Before wasting a new dime, it behooves that you read some reviews and benefit from the experience of other people. There are so several sites out there offering up top-notch, third party critiques involving online casinos. Equal though you'll certainly be gambling with the casino, it's best not really to gamble on some sort of online casino.
Be warned of Indicator Up Bonus deals
Sign right up bonuses as far seeing that Now i am concerned are often the candy that a shady new person uses in order to lure a good kid into a vehicle. They say nothing to get the online casino's game-play or customer satisfaction. I will use one other simile. They are like an offer incentive from a motor vehicle car lot put out at this time there to sketch suckers straight into the clutches of jeweler. Bottom line, there's always a catch. In the earlier mentioned scenarios you possibly find kidnapped or have got the old "switcharoo" ripped on you and turn out paying way more compared to you wanted for a car.
Online casinos are usually no different. Generally this sign up added bonus may offer various expensive amount of free dollars. Which what it says on the surface. Although what they no longer let you know is that in case you want that funds to pay off, an individual will have to pay a doubly expensive amount inside bets until you fulfill your minimum that permits you cash out… when you have any kind of payout that is.
Are You the Macintosh personal computer or some sort of PC?
Even though every on the web casino is PC lovely, the same cannot become mentioned for Macintosh desktops. Nevertheless , on-line casino bosses aren't blind and many have developed tools of which are suitable with each COMPUTER and the climbing number of Apple pc end users. So if you're on the Mac, your choice is quite limited. If most likely on a PC, typically the on the net casino world can be your oyster.
ECOGRA Authorized Internet casinos
There are a number of thirdparty on the web online casino watchdogs in existence, almost all of them monitoring typically the gambling dens to see that will they are playing good. The most trusted regarding them all can be eCogra (short for internet commerce On-line Gaming Regulation in addition to Assurance). There is no means to ensure that any kind of online casino is definitely fair 100% of this time. However, given that a casino is authorized by simply eCogra is the ideal solution to know that play is as good since it can be.
Right now there are other companies out there, nevertheless none since universally trusted as eCogra. While others may definitely do their job mainly because well as if not necessarily a lot better than eCogra, their track record is obviously strongest. In concept, anybody could start some sort of watchdog company and create a good seal. By going with a great eCogra licensed casino, solutions they stake their popularity on this fact that your gaming expertise will be a good fair one.
Know the Regulation
Even though it should not be, gambling online is mainly prohibited in several places, the particular United States included. Through those places where that is authorized, the idea is highly regulated. As a result, if online gambling is lawful in your region or maybe not, you will need to know this law before you get started shelling out. An online casino allowing you access does indeed not necessarily mean that their own services are lawful where you are. The idea is complicated with regard to government authorities to determine the web and often the gamer could be the 1 with risk. If the money are seized, typically the internet casino has their money presently since it is authorized for almost all casinos to acknowledge deposits. Consequently before building a deposit, check into on the internet gambling regulations specific to be able to where you live for a hassle-free gaming expertise.
Tips on how to Compare Online Casinos
Whether playing online is some sort of significant pastime for you or a simple pastime, picking out between the hundreds of on the net casinos accessible on-line nowadays can be rather frustrating. After all, every on the internet game player has their unique unique style, likes, disfavors and preferred games. Just simply as every single participant is usually different, so are on the net casinos. Beneath are often the basics to bear in mind when shopping all around to have an online gambling establishment that will fulfill your gambling needs and after that quite a few.

Customer Service Comes to the Polls. The Bauer-Ginsburg Commission is up and running!
UPDATE -- 16 August 2013 - The Bauer-Ginsburg Commission is up and running! Check out the website for the properly named Presidential Commission on Election Administration. SupporttheVoter.gov has the vision of bringing a "customer service model" to the voting experience. This could well mark a break away from the contentious partisan squabbles that scuttle efforts to transform a voting experience that is all too often an embarrasment of long lines, unreadable ballots and understaffed assistance.
DECEMBER 2012 -- True or False: The US Constitution includes among our rights, the right to vote.
The history of the right to vote in the U.S. is just that -- a history. Although the U.S. Supreme Court has found the right to vote an implicit right in our Constitution, no where in the Constitution can we find a clear and simple statement such as "All citizens of the U.S. age 18 or older have the right to vote." Instead, we have a patchwork of statements that say much about the changing concept of what we mean when we say "we the people."
Several Amendments address the right to vote. Their theme is who cannot have their right taken away, in constitutional language read, "denied or abridged." Here are the relevant sections of two post-Civil War amendments that addressed the right to vote:
- Amendment 14 (abridged [!] by me): "…[W]hen the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors … is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State … the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such State."
- Amendment 15:" The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude."
The 19th amendment adds sex (gender) to the list of qualities of a person that cannot be used to hinder the right to vote, and the 26th lowers the chronologic age for voting from 21 to 18.
In this century, we might consider new amendments. Perhaps we need an amendment that would prohibit denying or abridging the right to persons who do not have a valid state ID, or who are residents of a long term care facility? In such facilities, the staff exert substantial control over which residents can vote, control that resembles the kinds of offenses that led to the Voting Rights Act. We might also consider amendments that address many of the nettlesome barriers set up to abridge the right to vote, such as especially annoying requirements to register and file for an absentee ballot weeks prior to elections.
Or we might simply amend the Constitution to say that all citizens over 18 have the right to vote. Such an amendment might have avoided the Supreme Court's majority opinion in Bush v Gore that halted the recount because, among the court's reasons, the court argued that "the individual citizen has no federal Constitutional right to vote for electors for the President of the United States." It was a nuanced argument based on our peculiar electoral college system wherein the voters of each state elect electors who then vote for our President. It is an argument that would not have been possible if our Constitution had a clear and affirmative right to vote.
The Constitution includes among our rights, the right to vote -- True or False? True enough, perhaps. On the matter of the right to vote, our Constitution is a patchwork of statements and clarifications of who cannot have their right taken away. This patchwork reveals the difficult history of what we mean when we say "we the people."
We the people just had a hotly contested presidential election. It ended with a vote that, in too many places, required people waiting hours in line to vote. In his victory speech, President Obama noted this, and then he delivered what was likely an unscripted remark: "We're gonna have to do something about that."
Indeed we are. Let's get to work and reform a system that desperately needs to be freed from politics, that needs quality measures such as reducing the time spent in line waiting to vote, creating clear and coherent and readable ballot forms, and giving people time to vote. A great democracy deserves a great voting system.
Click here to read a law review article I wrote that examines the challenges of protecting older adults' voting rights and proposes ways to address them. It was part of a special issue of the McGeorge Law Review dedicated to voting rights.
Below is a pdf of an LDI Issue Brief that summarizes the problems the current voting system creates for older adults and proposes solutions.
UPDATE -- 23 January 2013. President's Obama's Second Inaugural Address included a call to respect and enforce our right to vote:
"It is now our generation's task to carry on what those pioneers began. ...Our journey is not complete until no citizen is forced to wait for hours to exercise the right to vote."
With these words, our president has engaged the great task of making our electoral system as great as our democracy. It is simply unacceptable that people wait for hours in line to vote. It is simply unacceptable that politicians tinker with voting rules and procedures to try to rig the outcome for their side. Now is the time to establish quality measures for voting. The next few years hold great promise for we the people and our enduring effort to form a more perfect union.
UPDATE -- 15 February 2013. President Obama has followed through on his election night speech and second inaugural addess -- in his State of the Union Address, he announced:
"Defending our freedom, though, is not just the job of our military alone. We must all do our part to make sure our God-given rights are protected here at home. That includes one of the most fundamental rights of a democracy: the right to vote. When any American, no matter where they live or what their party, are denied that right because they can't afford to wait for five or six or seven hours just to cast their ballot, we are betraying our ideals.
"So tonight, I'm announcing a nonpartisan commission to improve the voting experience in America. And it definitely needs improvement. I'm asking two long-time experts in the field -- who, by the way, recently served as the top attorneys for my campaign and for Governor Romney's campaign -- to lead it. We can fix this, and we will. The American people demand it, and so does our democracy."
His remarks show a deep engagement in the troubled history of the right to vote in America, which we should expect from a teacher of constitutional law.
His remarks included an illustrative story:
"We were sent here to look out for our fellow Americans the same way they look out for one another, every single day, usually without fanfare, all across this country. We should follow their example…. We should follow the example of a North Miami woman named Desiline Victor. When Desiline arrived at her polling place, she was told the wait to vote might be six hours. And as time ticked by, her concern was not with her tired body or aching feet, but whether folks like her would get to have their say. And hour after hour, a throng of people stayed in line to support her -- because Desiline is 102 years old. And they erupted in cheers when she finally put on a sticker that read, 'I voted.'"
Ms. Victor was, as is the custom now, seated beside the First Lady in the House Gallery.
SOTU Theatrics aside, it is notable that he picked an elderly woman. The elderly are perhaps the largest portion of the disabled population.
We the people now have an opportunity to make our union more perfect. As the Bauer-Ginsburg Commission sets to work, it has the advantage of drawing on a substantial body of evidence that, as NPR news quoted David Becker, director of the Election Initiatives project at the Pew Charitable Trusts, "Long lines are a big problem, but they're not the source of the problem. They are a symptom of greater problems in the system."

Kajsa only ever released one single, Try, Try Again, which was released on Sunset Records in 1986. Try, Try Again was written by Kajsa and Scott Free and was recorded at Reid Hyams' Chicago Trax Recording Studio.
When the sessions began at Chicago Trax Recording Studio, Kajsa was joined in the studio by some familiar faces. Steve Spapperi was about to engineer the studio and Tom O'Callaghan had taken charge of sequencing, Joining Kajsa in adding backing vocals were Carl L. Hall, Sylvia Fedrick and Scott Free who produced Try, Try Again with Matt Warren who was also executive producer and was responsible for Try, Try Again (Mansion Mix). It was joined by Try, Try Again (Condo Mix), Try, Try Again (House Mix), Try,Try Again (A Cappella) and Try,Try Again (Radio Edit). These tracks were released later in 1986 and became Kajsa's debut single Try, Try Again.
When SUN-2779 was released and featured the Try, Try Again (Condo Mix), nobody had any idea that this single marked the end of an era. It was the last release on Sunset Records that Matt Warren was involved with. He resigned from Sunset Records shortly afterwards and Kajsa's debut single Try, Try Again was his swan-song at the label he had founded in 1985.

You might remember the gift I sent to my friend Sanda for Christmas. I thought Sanda needs a container to keep all these together and because I couldn't find any beautiful tin for this purpose, I had to be creative and make my own tin.

China orders banks to clear hurdles slowing private sector lending
[SHANGHAI] The China Banking Regulatory Commission has sent an urgent notice to local financial institutions telling them to investigate and clear bottlenecks slowing lending to the private sector, two sources with direct knowledge told Reuters.
The CBRC did not respond to calls seeking comment from Reuters.
According to the document seen by Reuters, the CBRC is requiring financial institutions to conduct checks on their implementation of central government directives intended to make it easier for private firms to access bank credit.
It also tells them to work to resolve any problems in cases where lending support to private enterprise is insufficient, including small and micro-businesses.
The document requires institutions to report their implementation results to the CBRC by May 20.
Your feedback is important to us
Tell us what you think. Email us at firstname.lastname@example.com
It also called for banks to reduce costs for short-term credit products such as bridge loans, which private firms rely on to stay afloat through tough business cycles, while examining risk in their loan guarantee businesses.
"The important part of the document is to implement State Council requests and notifications; the key points are areas where policy solutions have not been put into place, or measures have not been introduced, impacting private investment's stable and sustainable growth," said one source.

My Blog
Posts for: February, 2017
As a parent you're concerned with a number of issues involving your child's health, not the least of which involves their teeth. One of the most common is thumb-sucking.
While later thumb-sucking is a cause for concern, it's quite normal and not viewed as harmful in infant's and very young children. This universal habit is rooted in an infant swallowing pattern: all babies tend to push the tongue forward against the back of the teeth when they swallow, which allows them to form a seal while breast or bottle feeding. Infants and young children take comfort or experience a sense of security from sucking their thumb, which simulates infant feeding.
Soon after their primary teeth begin to erupt, the swallowing pattern changes and they begin to rest the tongue on the roof of the mouth just behind the front teeth when swallowing. For most children thumb sucking begins to fade as their swallowing pattern changes.
Some children, though, continue the habit longer even as their permanent teeth are beginning to come in. As they suck their thumb the tongue constantly rests between the front teeth, which over time may interfere with how they develop. This can cause an "open bite" in which the upper and lower teeth don't meet properly, a problem that usually requires orthodontic treatment to correct it.
For this reason, dentists typically recommend encouraging children to stop thumb-sucking by age 3 (18-24 months to stop using a pacifier). The best approach is positive reinforcement — giving appropriate rewards over time for appropriate behavior: for example, praising them as a "big" boy or girl when they have gone a certain length of time without sucking their thumb or a pacifier. You should also use training or "Sippy" cups to help them transition from a bottle to a regular cup, which will further diminish the infant swallowing pattern and need for thumb-sucking.
Habits like thumb-sucking in young children should be kept in perspective: the habit really isn't a problem unless it goes on too long. Gentle persuasion, along with other techniques we can help you with, is the best way to help your child eventually stop.
If you would like more information on thumb sucking, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine articles "Thumb Sucking in Children" and "How Thumb Sucking Affects the Bite."
Everyone loves a concert where there's plenty of audience participation… until it starts to get out of hand. Recently, the platinum-selling band Fifth Harmony was playing to a packed house in Atlanta when things went awry for vocalist Camila Cabello. Fans were batting around a big plastic ball, and one unfortunate swing sent the ball hurtling toward the stage — and directly into Cabello's face. Pushing the microphone into her mouth, it left the "Worth It" singer with a chipped front tooth.
Ouch! Cabello finished the show nevertheless, and didn't seem too upset. "Atlanta… u wild… love u," she tweeted later that night. "Gotta get it fixed now tho lol." Fortunately, dentistry offers a number of ways to make that chipped tooth look as good as new.
A small chip at the edge of the tooth can sometimes be polished with dental instruments to remove the sharp edges. If it's a little bigger, a procedure called dental bonding may be recommended. Here, the missing part is filled in with a mixture of plastic resin and glass fillers, which are then cured (hardened) with a special light. The tooth-colored bonding material provides a tough, lifelike restoration that's hard to tell apart from your natural teeth. While bonding can be performed in just one office visit, the material can stain over time and may eventually need to be replaced.
Porcelain veneers are a more long-lasting solution. These wafer-thin coverings go over the entire front surface of the tooth, and can resolve a number of defects — including chips, discoloration, and even minor size or spacing irregularities. You can get a single veneer or have your whole smile redone, in shades ranging from a pearly luster to an ultra-bright white; that's why veneers are a favorite of Hollywood stars. Getting veneers is a procedure that takes several office visits, but the beautiful results can last for many years.
If a chip or crack extends into the inner part of a tooth, you'll probably need a crown (or cap) to restore the tooth's function and appearance. As long as the roots are healthy, the entire part of the tooth above the gum line can be replaced with a natural-looking restoration. You may also need a root canal to remove the damaged pulp material and prevent infection if the fracture went too far. While small chips or cracks aren't usually an emergency (unless accompanied by pain), damage to the tooth's pulp requires prompt attention.
If you have questions about smile restoration, please contact us and schedule an appointment. You can read more in the Dear Doctor magazine articles "Porcelain Veneers: Strength & Beauty As Never Before" and "Porcelain Crowns & Veneers."

The Spartan Club, comprised of Case Institute of Technology (CIT), Western Reserve University (WRU) and Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) alumni, parents of current students, faculty and staff, and friends of the University, is aimed at helping foster and honor the proud tradition of athletics at the University, while also supporting the current student-athletes. For more information on the Spartan Club, and to help support its purpose by becoming a member, CLICK HERE.
Case Western Reserve University junior Colt Morgan, a wide receiver on the football team, and senior Haley Sims, a middle hitter on the volleyball team, have been named the Spartan Club Athletes of the Week for their performances this past weekend.
Morgan caught three touchdowns in the Spartans' 37-6 win at the University of Rochester on Saturday. Morgan finished the game with nine catches for 146 yards, marking the fifth 100-yard game of his collegiate career. His first touchdown of the day was a nine-yard grab with 3:29 remaining in the first quarter, extending CWRU's lead to 21-0. He added a second score on a 19-yard catch with 4:11 left in the opening half, pushing the Spartans' advantage to 28-0. Morgan capped off CWRU's scoring with his third touchdown of the game, a six-yard scoring grab with 7:43 remaining in the game. It was the fifth multiple-touchdown game of his career, and he moved into a tie for fifth-place in school history with 22 career touchdown catches. Morgan and the Spartans improved to 1-0 on the year with the win, their fourth-straight in a season opener.
Sims helped the Spartans to a win during the CWRU Invitational this past weekend. Sims recorded 30 kills throughout the three matches and posted a team-best .414 hitting percentage. In addition, Sims gathered seven total blocks throughout the tournament. In Saturday's match against Muskingum University, Sims tallied a season-high 16 kills on 26 total attempts for a .538 hitting percentage. She also contributed four total blocks in the match. For the season, Sims ranks tied for third on the team with 48 kills (2.18 per set) and ranks second on the team with a .343 hitting percentage. Case Western Reserve moved to 3-3 overall on the 2019 season.
The Spartan Club Athletes of the Week are selected by the CWRU Department of Athletics each Monday, based on their performance during the previous week of competition.
Honorable Mention: Jana Fisher (women's cross country) was the top finisher for the Spartans at the Knight Invite at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan on Saturday. Fisher was the first CWRU runner to complete the race for the second-straight week, placing 14th out of 200 runners in the 6K with a time of 22:37.46. Her finish helped lead the Spartans to a fifth-place finish out of 24 teams at the event.
David Hall (men's cross country) was the top finisher for the 19th-ranked Spartans at the Knight Invite at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan on Saturday. Hall placed 18th out of 218 runners in the race, completing the 8K course in a time off 25:43.2. His finish helped lead the Spartans to a third-place finish out of 24 teams at the event.
Travis Johnston (football) helped lead a Spartans' defense that kept the University of Rochester out of the end zone the entire game in a 37-6 triumph over the Yellowjackets. Johnston finished the game with 10 tackles (six solo) including a sack for six yards on third and goal on the CWRU nine yard line early in the fourth quarter that helped hold Rochester to a field goal. He helped the CWRU defense hold Rochester to a pair of field goals in the contest, and limited the Yellowjackets to just 287 total yards. Also in Saturday's game, he blocked a punt that was returned for a touchdown, and returned three kicks for an average of 26.7 yards per return, including a long of 29 yards.
Michael Amadio (football) scored his first career touchdown during the Spartans' 37-6 win over the University of Rochester on Saturday. Amadio recovered a blocked punt and returned it 12 yards for a touchdown with 8:42 left in the first quarter, helping the Spartans expand their lead to 14-0 at the time. He also finished the game with three tackles, including one on special teams.
Aniya Hartzler (women's soccer) helped lead the Spartans to two wins in as many games this past week. Hartzler scored two goals and tallied one assist for five points. In Wednesday's 4-0 win over Hiram College, Hartzler tallied one goal and one assist for three points. For the season, Hartzler ranks second on the team with nine points on four goals and one assist. She also currently ranks tied for second in the UAA with nine points. Case Western Reserve improved to 4-0 on the season with the two victories this past weekend, and have now outscored their opponents 19-0 in four games this season.
Bailey George (women's soccer) led a defense that did not allow a goal in 180 minutes of action this past week as the Spartans earned wins against Hiram and Penn St.-Behrend. In Wednesday's 4-0 win over Hiram, George led a defense that only three total shots throughout the game, including zero on goal. Case Western Reserve improved to 4-0 on the season and have not allowed goal in 360 minutes this season.
Matt Vatne (men's soccer) scored his first collegiate goal on Sunday night, which came as the game-winning 'golden goal' in the first overtime period against the College of Wooster. Vatne collected a blocked shot and beat the Wooster keeper to the end match in dramatic fashion as the Spartans claimed the 2-1 overtime victory. Case Western Reserve improved to 2-1-1 on the 2019 season.
Rafael Perez (men's soccer) scored the equalizing goal in the 22nd minute of the game against the College of Wooster on Sunday night. Perez headed the ball into the back of the net after juniors Connor Weber and Nathan Ekberg teamed to send the ball to Perez inside the box. The goal was Perez's second of the season, which currently ranks first on the team. In addition, Perez's two goals currently ranks tied for second among all University Athletic Association players.
Faith Ellis (volleyball) helped the Spartans collect a win at the CWRU Invite this weekend. She led CWRU with 71 assists, and also tallied 23 digs throughout the weekend. In Saturday's match against Muskingum, Ellis tallied a season-high 29 assist and a season-high 10 digs. For the season, Ellis leads the team with 120 assists (5.45 per set) and ranks fourth with 40 digs (1.82 per set).
Shreyaa Mukund (women's tennis) led the Spartans at the Oberlin Invitational this past weekend, as she posted a 3-1 record in singles play. Mukund also teamed with junior Mira Amin to pick up a 2-0 record in doubles action.

Counsels on Sabbath School Work
A Representative of True Religion
The truly converted laborer in the Sabbath school will not be molded after the customs and practices of the world, but will stand in moral independence. He will set an example that will be consistent with his profession, coming out from the world, and maintaining a separation from its spirit and fashions. He will not be turned in the least from his steadfast purpose to be one with Christ, nor yield an iota from his stand of fidelity to God, in opposition to pride, to indulgence in selfish amusement, to expenditure of means for the gratification of inclination or love of display, but will be an example in spirit, deportment, and dress. CSW 95.1
Sabbath school worker, which will you meet, the standard of Christ or that of the world? Oh, will you say, "I will lift the cross and follow Jesus"? Will you not cultivate His tenderness in persuasion, His earnestness in exhortation, and exemplify the exalted principles of the truth, manifesting in life and character what the religion of Christ has done for you? Shall we not all heed the exhortation of the apostle, "Put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts thereof"? CSW 95.2
There is need of representing genuine religion before the youth. Such religion will prove a vital power, an all-pervading influence. From heartfelt devotion, joyousness, freshness, and continual growth, will spring, and this is the religion that the youth must behold if they are to be drawn to Christ. This kind of religion will leave its divine impression upon souls, and its possessor will be renewed both mentally and physically by the refreshing grace of God. CSW 95.3
Try it for one year, you who are educators and teachers in our Sabbath and day schools, and see if you will not be able to say, "The Lord hath wrought wondrously for us, for many souls have been brought to the Master, as precious sheaves for the heavenly garner."—Testimonies on Sabbath-School Work, 45, 46. CSW 96.1

Following are the day's biggest winners and losers. Find out why shares of Waste Managment and Jones Apparel popped while Genzyme and Dean Foods dropped.
POPS (stocks that jumped higher)
3Com (COMS) popped 10%. A $2.2 billion bid from Bain Capital and Huawei Technologies appeared to be back on track, after Bain offered concessions that eased national security concerns raised by the deal. The U.S. government had been worried about giving a Chinese company access to 3Com's anti-hacking software, which is used by some government agencies. – Interesting, says Pete Najarian.
Waste Managment (WMI) popped 3%. One man's trash is another man's treasure: The nation's #1 trash hauler was able to offset declining volumes with price increases, boosting profits. – They made more with less, says Karen Finerman.
Jones Apparel Group (JNY) popped 11%. The clothing company behind the Ann Klein and Nine West brands narrowed its fourth-quarter loss. – The stock might be at a bottom, says Jeff Macke.
Volcano Corp. (VOLC) popped 17%. The full year forecast for this heart disease diagnosis firm doubled the street's expectations. – I'm surprised they're doing well, says Pete Najarian.
Amazon.com (AMZN) popped 4%. The online retailer resisted NY Gov. Eliot Spitzer's plan to collect sales tax from online shoppers. – It's a darn good merchant, says Jeff Macke.
Goodyear Tire (GT) popped 3%. Goodyear gained traction ahead of Thursday's earnings. – I expect good numbers out of GT, says Guy Adami.
Bob Evans Farms (BOBE) popped 7%. The sausage maker and restaurant operator said profits were up, helped by $6.6 million in un-redeemed gift certificates and gift cards. – I like it, says Pete Najarian.
General Cable Corp. (BGC) popped 10%. The maker of wires and cables said an acquisition boosted profits 32% for the quarter. – Very good, says Karen Finerman.
Intuitive Surgical (ISRG) popped 4%. The maker of the DaVinci robotic surgical system moved higher Wednesday for no clear reason. – They're killing the competition, says Pete Najarian.
Uno The Beagle. We told you Monday night that Uno the Beagle had won 'Best in Breed' for the hound group - the first time since 1939. Well now he's broken another barrier for his breed: Last night, Uno became the first EVER Beagle to win "Best In Show" in the history of the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. Initially an underdog, Uno beat out two poodles, a Sealyham terrier, a Weimeraner, an Australian shepherd and an Akita to take the top prize.
DROPS (stocks that slid lower)
Genzyme (GENZ) dropped 2%. Although it popped on the open after swinging to a 4th quarter profit, shares fizzled by the end of the day. – I like other names in this space better, says Guy Adami.
Dean Foods (DF) dropped 6%. The nation's largest dairy producer said soaring food and input costs led to a 55% drop in profits. – Go away, says Jeff Macke.
Daktronics (DAKT) dropped 10%. The maker of electronic billboards posted a forecast below analyst expectations, sending shares to a 52 week low.

Snarky Puppy is a collective of musicians in Dallas and New York City playing an infectious mixture of jazz, funk and world music. Music to move the brain and booty.
The once Texan, now New York-based, Grammy award-winning quasi-collective Snarky Puppy has gone from the best-kept secret to one of the most respected names in instrumental music. Although still "underground" in many respects, the band has earned high praise from critical stalwarts like the BBC, Village Voice, Guardian, and Boston Herald, and has performed at some of the best venues and festivals in Asia, Europe, Australia, and North America.
The band has always used live performance as its chief form of evangelism, and maintains a more intense tour schedule than almost any band in the idiom. Over the course of 2013, Snarky Puppy gave almost 200 performances and workshops on four continents, including North Sea Jazz, Monterey Jazz Festival, Jazz á Vienne, Blue Note Tokyo, and the Melbourne International Jazz Festival.
Debuting in 2004 and releasing a series of well-received albums along the way, Snarky Puppy finally gained the recognition they deserved after 10 hardworking years. Their most recent album, "Family Dinner - Volume One," earned a Grammy for Best R&B Performance with featured guest Lalah Hathaway, as well as charting #1 on the ITUNES Jazz Charts.
Bandleader, Michael League shared his band's journey during his speech at the Grammys: "I started this band ten years ago at a little college in Texas, and they spent the last ten years with me, eight of them touring very unglamorously on the road and sleeping on floors and couches, and to be here, right now, is completely unimaginable."
