Europe's industry tries to adapt to high energy costs
- Tweet

STAMFORD (Reuters) - Thirty meters from the kiln the heat is palpable. It is converting crushed stone to 'clinker' for cement at temperatures of 1,500 degrees Celsius.
It was designed to burn pulverized coal.
But rising coal prices have prompted Castle Cement, a unit of Germany's Heidelberg Cement HBCB.DH, to replace over half the coal with alternatives -- tires, bone meal, paper.
Across Europe, companies are suffering under high energy costs. Oil hit a record high above $140 per barrel on June 26.
"We've had to increase our use of secondary fuels such as whole tires, meat and bone meal, paper and plastics and recycled solvents," said Gareth Price, General Manager of the Ketton works.
"This keeps our costs down and also reduces the amount of waste going to landfill."
Beyond the 68 meter-long steel tube of the furnace, an enormous cylindrical mill grinds 130 tonnes of clinker an hour to a fine powder with a deafening rumble.
It runs on electricity, which cannot be replaced with other fuels, and power prices have more than doubled in the past year.
With a collapse in British house building following the credit crunch, the company's ability to pass costs onto customers is limited, putting pressure on the bottom line.
Castle Cement is not alone in feeling the pressure.
Shares in the world's top paper and packaging firms Stora Enso Oyj (STERV.HE), UPM-Kymmene (UPM1V.HE), and Huhtamaki (HUH1V.HE), fell sharply earlier this month when the Finnish firms were forced to issue profit warnings on the back of higher energy costs.
Companies in all sectors, from food makers such as Cadbury CBRY.L in the UK to Austria's RHI (RHIV.VI), the world's largest fire proof material maker, have warned that higher oil, gas, coal and power prices are pushing up the costs of manufacturing products and moving them to customers.
Industry says the situation has reached a tipping point and urgent action is needed from the European Union and governments to avoid business closures and job losses.
"The real pain is kicking in," David Gilett, director of IFIEC Europe, a lobby group for energy intensive industries across Europe, said.
"If the forward prices for winter power and gas apply when it comes around to actually buying the power and gas, then there will be real difficulties."
Crude, coal and gas prices have risen globally in recent years but businesses in Europe feel they have suffered more than other regions.
Gilett noted that many countries subsidize energy prices, especially in Asia and the Middle East.
In the United States, power and gas prices are often lower than those in liberalized western European markets.
In the past nine months benchmark UK gas prices have been 20-30 percent above U.S. Henry Hub prices, according to data from oil giant BP Plc.
Current baseload UK electricity prices of around 90 pounds per megawatt hour are also much higher than levels recorded at U.S. power hubs in recent weeks.
European businesses blame a failure to implement proper competition in continental power and gas markets.
They are now pressing the EU to push ahead with more vigour in implementing a planned directive that aims to foster competition by separating ownership of power and gas production activities from transportation infrastructure.
"Europe needs to make sure its energy position is competitive with America and elsewhere," said Chris Tane, Chief Executive of Ineos ChlorVinyls, whose Runcorn plant for making chlorine uses as much electricity as nearby Liverpool, England's sixth-largest city.
Industry says Europe's Emissions Trading Scheme is also boosting power prices and the impact on industry is likely to worsen if the EU presses ahead with its plans to make more sectors subject to CO2 emissions caps.
Big energy users would also like to see changes in the tax system to ease their burden, such as cuts in taxes on fuel and power, accelerated depreciation for equipment and a variable corporate tax rate that fall when energy costs rise, Gilett said.
Loathe to give up tax revenues and more concerned with alleviating the impact of high fuel prices on the old and unemployed, governments have not taken heed of industry's case, Gilett said.
"There seems to be no recognition at all of the pressures this is placing on the industrial core," Gilett said.
With a weak economic climate often making it hard to pass higher energy costs on to customers, businesses are forced to make ever-greater efforts to use energy more efficiently.
Castle Cement now mills as much cement as it can at night and the weekends, when electricity prices are lower. In future, it will try to schedule big maintenance projects that require plant shutdowns for the winter, when power prices are higher. Old machines have been replaced with more efficient versions.
High energy costs require Price to run a tighter ship than in the past as operations must run smoothly and reliably to optimize energy use.
Breakdowns caused by poor maintenance of machinery can shift activity to times when power costs are higher and lead to idling equipment elsewhere in the production chain.
"Energy management is now a topic of everyday conversation. We are completely changing the way we work," he said.

The good news for the Wyoming East Warriors? They'll get a rematch with county rival Westside tonight in the Big Atlantic Classic. The bad news? It will be in the consolation round.
The Class AA No. 3 Warriors were knocked off by the No. 5 Robert C. Byrd Flying Eagles on Tuesday night 65-58.
It was a back-and-forth battle between the two teams, with neither seeming to have the clear advantage. However, Robert C. Byrd was able to outscore Wyoming East 20-14 in the final quarter to pull away.
"I think their depth helped them quite a bit," Wyoming East coach Rory Chapman said. "It's the little things. It's running a set that you run all the time. It's perfecting that set. When you come into a game like this, you have to execute in any phase of the game. We didn't execute tonight at all."
It wasn't the typical Wyoming East basketball game. A team that is so disciplined in the basics played a sloppy game of basketball from start to finish. The Warriors turned the ball over 24 times, including seven from the normally automatic guard Austin Canada.
"I don't think we played very good. Anytime you turn the ball over 24 times, you're not going to beat a top 5 team," Chapman said.
"It felt like we were never into the game. We didn't score in halfcourt sets. We didn't run things right. We turned the ball over way too much. We didn't block out. We've been talking about the little things. You need a rebound, you get a rebound. You need a steal, you get a steal. You need to make a foul shot, you make a foul shot. That's what they did that we didn't do."
The loss created a matchup for the Warriors with Westside. It's been five years since Westside last defeated Wyoming East. The last time the two teams played was earlier this month in Clear Fork, with the Warriors picking up the win, 67-57.
"I just told my guys, I don't enjoy losing but we've got the biggest game of the short season tomorrow," said Chapman. "They'll be fired up. I hope we will. They're playing really well right now. We've got to come over here and match up with them."
Wyoming East and Westside will play in the Class AA consolation round of the Big Atlantic Classic today at 5:20 p.m. Robert C. Byrd will match up with the No. 1 Bluefield Beavers in the championship game Saturday at 2 p.m.
Robert C. Byrd (10-3)
Iziah Hill 8 1-3 16, Kevin Steele 2 0-0 5, Nick Dyer 2 0-3 5,k Devonti Birch 10 1-1 20, Justin Nobles 4 0-1 8, Ronnie Fox 0 0-0 0, Julian Malfregeot 3 0-0 6, Luke Dyer 0 0-0 0, Devin Langford 3 1-2 7. Totals: 33 4-10 65.

A group of students today told how they were conned by a bogus landlord who advertised online Canary Wharf apartments he did not own.
Fazool Gajraj took £2,325 from would-be tenants Qandeel Zafar, 22, Valentin Carrillo, 23, and Charlotte Mazzoni, 23, last September for a deposit for two flats before issuing them with fake keys. Other victims were able to move in, only to be moved out days later by the real owners.
Gajraj, 42, who took a total of more than £6,000, was sentenced to two years in jail after admitting four counts of fraud at Snaresbrook crown court.
Ms Zafar, who handed the money over on behalf of the three King's College students, said she was forced to sleep in the corridor of the apartment building after discovering the keys did not work when she tried to move in.
The biomedical sciences graduate, who now lives in east London, added: "I had saved up the money over the summer. It was more or less all I had. By the time I got to the flat, it was about midnight so there were no Tubes. It was freezing in the corridor and it was upsetting because I knew by then this could potentially be a scam. I didn't know whether Fazool, who we knew then as Simon Bailey because he gave us a fake name, would even be there."
The next day she went to Gajraj's rented office with Mr Carrillo, who had returned from visiting family in France, and told him they would not hand over the rest of the money due until they had two sets of keys that worked.
Mr Carrillo, who is from Marseille, decided to stay with Gajraj while Ms Zafar went back to the flats to try the keys. He said: "Fazool told me he had to leave for his next appointment but I followed him onto the DLR. He tried pushing me away several times and then just before the doors closed at Canary Wharf station he ran away. I ran after him, caught him and pinned him down. I told people to call the police and he was arrested."
Gajraj, from Sutton, also tricked Anne-Marie Fredericks, who moved into a property in Enfield, after providing more than £2,880 for the deposit and a month's rent in advance. She was given a set of keys and a tenancy agreement, but the next day the genuine estate agent showed up and told her the place had been sold.
Learning support worker Ruth Njenda paid Gajraj £1,000 in two instalments for the same property.
Sentencing, Recorder Mark Turner said the sophistication of the scam "was such that non-vulnerable victims were persuaded to part with their money".
Ms Zafar welcomed the conviction, but added: "I think he should have got longer." Mr Carrillo, who lives in Hackney Wick, said: "He should definitely pay back the money and perhaps some compensation too."
Ms Mazzoni, also from France and living in Hackney Wick, said: "I'm glad this is being reported because it's important others are aware of the risks."

The Liberal Bill of Rights
If all these are RIGHTS – then who provides? Is it not more correct to say that we all have a right to Life, Liberty & the pursuit of Happiness i.e. equal opportunity to pursue our endeavors?
If all of these so-called "RIGHTS" of the Second Bill of Rights are indeed 'Rights' then they are inviolate – but again; who provides?
And if they ARE inviolate, then where is the motivation to get up, go to work and earn a decent living? If we have the right to these things, why not just kick back and wait until somebody hands them to you? Under the Socialist system, the lazy are rewarded for their sloth and the hard-working have no motivation, as the products of their labors are taken away and re-distributed to those who do not work, or work slowly. There is no motivation to work harder, as there is no reward for your endeavors.
Ergo the fatal flaw of Socialism: it rewards failure and punishes success – this is the reason Socialism has produced nothing but poverty and misery everywhere it's been tried.

Feminists Fear the Republican Uterus
"Feminism is the theory; lesbianism is the practice."
– Ti-Grace Atkinson, 1971
"The political economy of socialist feminism establishes that, in contemporary society, women suffer a special form of exploitation and oppression."
– Allison Jaggar, 1988
"Marriage as an institution developed from rape as a practice."
– Andrea Dworkin, 1989
Professional athletes can spawn with multiple baby mamas, and feminists have no word of complaint. Gay men hiring surrogates to breed children for them? Lesbians raising adopted child sex-change experiments? No problem, say the Womyn's Studies majors. In response to the general plague of divorce and fatherlessness, the poverty-inducing epidemic of illegitimacy that replicates underclass misery, the collective reaction of the Official Women's Movement is . . . crickets chirping.
However, let a normal couple of married Christians give birth to more than the standard 1.7 children, and they become the targets of seething rage and resentment from the feminist Left. You saw this attitude exemplified in the hysterical reaction to Sarah Palin who, by giving birth to five children, was made the object of fathomless hatred. "For many liberal women, Palin threatens their sexual identity, which is bound up with their politics," as James Taranto observed.
It is this same feminist fanaticism that explains the hateful campaign against the Duggar family and their TV show, "19 Kids and Counting." Dana Pico at First Street Journal remarks:
The Duggars are the "stars" of the TLC network reality series, 19 Kids and Counting. Predictably, our friends on the left hate them: see Jezebel and Jenna Karvunidis and Bitch Magazine (check out the comments!) and, of course! Amanda Marcotte. It's pretty simple: if your choices aren't their choices, then your choices are wrong, illegitimate, and societally harmful. It's not like they are actually killing anyone, and the Duggars are self-supporting, taxpaying Americans; they aren't on welfare.
RH Reality Check thinks that it's horrible, horrible! that Mr Duggar referenced the Holocaust, and you know, I agree: Holocaust references by pro-life groups are inappropriate. After all, the Holocaust killed only six million people, and is nowhere in our abortuaries' league when it comes to dealing out death.
It is shocking how fanatically devoted some people are to the "right" of abortion. Doug Hagin at Daley Gator explains:
I used to try to talk sense to pro-abortion people on message boards. . . . I found out they too believe it is a baby, and they revel in the "right" to destroy it. To them, a woman is not whole unless she can have her baby executed in the womb. How depraved are they? Well, consider many of the regularly compared unborn babies to parasites, and cancerous tumors, yes really.
Such unspeakable hatred toward human life is rooted in a radical ideology that views the culture and institutions of traditional morality and family life as part of an oppressive bourgeois capitalist system which they — the feminists — must destroy.
It is not just marriage and motherhood, but also religion, patriotism and all notions of virtue, honor and decency associated with those concepts which are the targets of cultural destruction by feminists and the larger radical movement to which feminists belong. You might think there is some reasonable limit to what feminists would endorse in pursuit of this agenda, but hate is irrational and radicalism knows no limit. So when a Canadian provincial government publishes "Children's Sexual Behaviours: A Parent's Guide," which tells parents that it is "natural and healthy" for young children to "touch the 'private parts' of familiar adults" and to look at "nude pictures on the Internet, videos, magazines," we get the expected reaction from feminists: Crickets chirping.
Why the silence? Because the Left is willing to "normalize pedophilia" as part of its "ongoing effort to rid the world of Judeo/Christian influences," as Matt Ross says. The failure to understand the Left's revolutionary ambitions leads to a sonambulant indifference to the Left's declarations of its beliefs, its methods and its purposes.
"Childlike innocence is an invention of the bourgeoisie of early capitalism."
– Olaf Stüben, German pedophile activist, 1981
While advocating the perverse, abnormal and deviant as "rights," the Left simultaneously attacks the wholesome and decent, so a married Christian couple like the Duggars must be stigmatized as part of the Left's larger project, which one of their leaders described as "fundamentally transforming the United States of America."
Every day brings new headlines heralding the Left's success at destroying the moral foundation of our nation's culture.
Why Did a Public University Pay
Dan Savage to Talk About Sex?
That's a good question: Why would the University of Oregon bring anotorious anti-Christian speaker like Dan Savage to campus?
Why not bring the Duggar family to campus instead?
MSNBC Guest: Abortionists Are
"Doing Wonderful, Important Work"
MSNBC would never say the Duggars are "doing wonderful, important work," because the Duggars are Christians and MSNBC hates Jesus.

Demonrat Senator Thinks There Should be no Time Limit on How Late You Can Rip a Baby out of the Womb
Dem Sen. Patty Murray Calls Ban On Late-Term Abortions "Extreme"…
Sucking a baby from the womb and tossing it in the trash, nah, nothing extreme about that.
Via CNS News:
Sen. Patty Murray (D- Wash.) criticized the proposed Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act on Thursday, calling it "unconstitutional" three times while speaking on the Senate floor. "So we're here today to make one thing abundantly clear and that is that this extreme, unconstitutional abortion ban is an absolute non-starter," Murray said.
Murray continued, "The truth is the drumbeat of politically driven, extremist and unconstitutional laws continues to get louder. And apparently some of our colleagues on the other side of this aisle want to make some noise about this so that their adoring audience of right wing radio-hosts and activists are satisfied."
"Women who continue to believe that their healthcare decisions are theirs alone are not going anywhere," Murray said. "And by the way, the Constitution is not going anywhere and therefore this bill is not going anywhere."

Quick Core Sample
If you need to take some quick tree core samples to determine the rate of growth last year, one tool you could use is this Swedish-made increment hammer from Haglof. To take a sample, all you do is strike the tree perpendicular to the trunk and and pull the hammer out. You then eject the core with the steel plunger.
Made from high-quality hardened Swedish steel, the 11-1/2″ hammer takes a 0.157″ (4mm) diameter by 3/4″ long sample from either hard or soft wood trees. A 2″ graduated scale on the shaft of the hammer is graduated in increments in 1/20″ or in millimeters for taking a quick reading in the field.
With an investment of $80 you can start taking some core samples. The ejector and the hollowed tip are replaceable if you damage them and cost $18 and $20 respectively.

Hmm… file this under things I don't need but for some reason really want.
jerry says:
I agree with Jim K. I would probably only use it to see if it really worked but I would keep it out in plain sight so everyone would ask, "What's that thing?" Then I could show off my extensive knowledge by explaining it to them – but not before saying, "What? You REALLY don't know what that is?"
bob says:
I want to use this instead of a drill. Though, probably and it wouldn't work so well on dry wood.

New snow—already despoiled by deer digging for grass. I watch a red-bellied woodpecker inch down one side of a tree and inch up the other.
New snow—already despoiled by deer digging for grass. I watch a red-bellied woodpecker inch down one side of a tree and inch up the other.
Rain and fog. Two bucks stand among the trees, antlers dripping as they lower their heads for a better look at the doe lying in the weeds.
In the dim light, the sound of eight bone knives being whetted against a sapling. The buck straightens up and gives me a baleful look.
At the base of the hill, the meadow is white with frost. A small deer carries the white torch of its tail up into the sunlit woods.
White shapes appear and disappear in the pre-dawn darkness: nervous deer raising and lowering their tails.
Loud wingbeats as the shadow of a raven crosses the yard. A buck gingerly lowers his antlered head to the stream.
Two bucks wander past in patchy, shedding coats, spike antlers curved like the horns of anorexic bulls. One pauses to snack on lilac leaves.
A pair of cardinals chirp back and forth in the lilac. A small buck with antlers in velvet crashes out of the woods, chased by a larger doe.
A deer at the edge of the rain-drenched meadow seems rooted to the spot. At last I glimpse beneath her belly the ears of a very small fawn.
Three deer graze in the meadow, ears and tails flapping to keep off the flies. From the valley, a steam locomotive's lonesome wail.
During a lull in the snow, our neighbor drives past on the tractor. A deer leaps up from a patch of laurel, runs a few steps and stops.
After weeks of near-absence, crows call and quarrel in all directions. It must be the gut piles, venison viscera festering among the leaves.
A deer under the lilac glows strangely in the sunlight refracted from my bedroom window. The waxy myrtle leaves crackle between her teeth.
A series of loud sneezes from the dead goldenrod at the woods' edge where a deer must be bedded down. A junco forages in the stiltgrass.
A breeze carries leaves from the dark woods to spiral down into the sunlit yard. A deer feeds on the lilac—the only remaining greenery.
Two antlerless deer pass the porch ten minutes apart, each grunting anxiously. Gray-brown now, they almost vanish into the dead goldenrod.

How can a girl make a potential future boyfriend less insecure and jealous of her past love interests?
I'm interested in someone. Let's call him Joe. He really wants to date me, but we live a couple of hours apart and he works weird hours right now, so we need to wait a while. He knows about another guy (who I'll call Nick) I was talking to online and was interested in for a while before I met him.
I've told Joe I've been trying to get a hold of Nick and end things so I can just be with him, and that although I was somewhat interested in Nick, he never totally had my heart and things had already been going sour between us, so he has no reason to worry. Also, Nick lives on the other side of the world, and even though there was some mutual interest online for a while, chances of anything ever happening in real life were slim to none.
Is there any way I can make Joe feel less jealous of Nick as well as less insecure? I really care about him, and even though he knows that, he still feels this way and I don't think he should. Does he just need time, or is there anything else I can say?
9 Answers to "How can a girl make a potential future boyfriend less insecure and jealous of her past love interests?"
Stop talking to him about Nick.
Heart (2)
I didn't say stop your previous talking about Nick. Stop talking to him about Nick means, stop doing so from here on out. If he asks, tell him you're no longer talking to Nick.
Heart (1)
Wipe nick out of your life , if he is the other side of the world , you met him on the internet and never in person , what's the problem ? i would advice you delete your profile for meeting people on the internet , that will prove to joe that you are only interested in him and not meeting other guys. Tell him how you feel about him . But be caucious if you have never met him before , don't rush in to anything. Because you can't be sure of your feelings as you have never met him and it is a virtual relationship.
Heart (1)
Stop contacting Nick. Give your full attention to Joe. Joe is right in front of you. Nick is miles apart. Your choice.
Heart (1)
It's been said a few times, but bears repeating - the more times you talk about the other guy, the more he's (quite naturally) going to assume that either (a) you have some reason to feel guilty about him or (b) he's constantly on your mind. Stop talking about him, and if the new guy brings him up, just say "nothing really happened, and he's out of my life now".
Bear in mind the possibility that "Joe" doesn't feel jealous (you could be imagining it because you think it's something to feel guilty about, which it isn't), but your behaviour could make him think he should be.Heart (1)
Hmm, by making him your boyfriend instead of a potential future boyfriend.
Heart (1)
First, stop trying to contact Nick. If it was headed towards the end he'll know it's over.
Start trying to put Nick out of your mind as much as you can. Remember the fond memories and put the rest away.
Look Joe in the eyes, or as best you can given the distance, and tell him there is nobody other than him.
Then let it go. You can't change the way Joe feels and thinks. He has to accept that Nick was in your life, in some form, and is now NOT in your life anymore. If Joe remains jealous well, then, that's his issue to deal with, with your support.
Lastly, why on earth are you, at this age, even thinking about finding someone to be serious with?Heart (1)
Sorry, that was a bit harsh on my part. I know full well you can't help who and when you fall in love. I hope it all works out for the best. Just be yourself, be confident with Joe and he'll see the truth.
Heart (1)
Hmmmmm...... That's a little like asking how to make a guy not a guy.
But if he's not already mature & secure about such things, you might try being up-front with him about your feelings toward him alone, about your willingness to resolve any lingering doubts or conflicts in an open, respectful, but frank dialogue, and you can set the example by never being insecure or jealous of his past girlfriends.
Failing that, you can take your cue from my first line and either get a girlfriend, a gay male friend, or a pet. Good Luck!Heart (1)
Then you've done about all you can reasonably do.... and more than most would. Now all you can do is let things unfold. If you keep true to your words, and you both have the care & respect to treat each other honestly, you should be fine. Again, good luck.
Heart (1)
I just think its gonna take time to prove your interest in him. You really can't make someone else secure though, that comes from within. Be honest no matter what you're feeling and let the rest fall into place...good luck with it :)
Heart (1)
Don't mention the other guy again, and if Joe asks tell him you ended it.
Heart (1)

The Gaston Gazette
For the second time in less than a week Danny Hembree attempted to have his guilty verdict on first-degree murder set aside.
A Gaston County jury convicted Hembree of first-degree murder Nov. 8. Jurors are now listening to testimony to determine if Hembree will be sentenced to death or life in prison for the October 2009 slaying of 17-year-old Heather Catterton.
Defense attorneys Brent Ratchford and Rick Beam made a motion Monday morning to throw out the verdict. The basis for the motion was that some jurors could've been influenced by members of Catterton's family while taking smoke breaks.
Superior Court Judge Beverly Beal called five jurors into the jury box individually. He asked each of the five smokers if they had been approached by anyone involved in the case while taking smoke breaks. Each said they had not had any such encounters, and Beal in turn denied the motion.
Hembree, 49, appeared docile throughout the trial until the day after jurors handed down the guilty verdict.
The following morning Hembree refused to get dressed and come to court.
Beal ultimately ordered the defendant to come to court. Once before the judge Hembree expressed dissatisfaction with how his trial was conducted. He said his attorneys had not provided him with all of the evidence, and he considered himself to be an active participant in his trial.
Hembree made a motion to have the verdict thrown out because of inadequate representation.
Gaston County District Attorney Locke Bell objected to the motion, stating that Beam and Ratchford gave the prosecution a run for their money in the lengthy trial.
Beal denied the motion, and the sentencing phase of the trial began.
The prosecution called a number of people to the stand. The men and women, clerks at various businesses in Gaston and Mecklenburg counties, testified that Hembree robbed them at gunpoint. The robberies were presented to the jury to show a pattern of behavior by Hembree to consistently commit violent crimes, according to the prosecution.
The defense began presenting its case in the sentencing phase of the trial Monday morning.
The first witness was a forensic psychologist who has reviewed Hembree's psychological disorders.

Digital Implant Dentistry: Imaging, Planning, Placement and Restoration
Course Description
Recent developments in digital technology are rapidly changing the way we approach planning and treating patients with dental implant supported restorations. Predictable outcomes are routinely derived through a coordinated effort between the restorative dentist, surgeon and technician. It is therefore imperative that the treatment team have common goals, knowledge of available technology and desire to incorporate this technology into the workflow to achieve optimal patient care and esthetic results. This two-day course will consist of a combination of lecture and hands-on sessions introducing participants to the collaborative approach to interdisciplinary digital dentistry.
Participants will learn how to incorporate guided surgery software into everyday practice to achieve treatment success. Specifics on mandibular nerve detection, segmentation, implant selection and placement, and abutment selection and placement will be covered in detail. The hands-on component of this course will allow participants to practice treatment planning implant cases using the guided surgery software. Additionally, participants will have the opportunity to place dental implants using a surgical template and guided surgery instrumentation on models. Participants will also learn how the lab fabricates the radiographic template and surgical guide.
Following an in-depth surgical planning and guided placement protocol, the crown-down philosophy of restorative dentistry will be discussed as it relates to intra-oral impressions and CADCAM technology. Accurate impressions through intra-oral scan systems can better capture soft tissue and margins, leading to more accurate final restorations. The intra-oral scan data can be imported to CADCAM software for design without a model, saving the technician and restorative doctor time and money. Hands-on demonstrations will focus on implant-level digital impressions, quadrant and full-arch scans, and reading and editing the data to send a precise digital impression directly to the laboratory for CAD design and fabrication.
CADCAM dentistry offers technicians great flexibility and a variety of materials. Instructors will review the techniques for traditional wax-up abutments and scanbody abutments for a complete-digital design to accurately sculpture the soft tissue and make any adjustments to the cementation line. Single crown to multi-unit framework restorative cases will be detailed. Participants will review the indications for screw-retained bars and bridges and abutment restorations and learn collaboration and planning techniques for the surgeon, restorative doctor and laboratory technician to help ensure a premium esthetic result.
Digital dentistry continues to evolve and the team approach is essential to incorporating new trends into the practice. The laboratory technician, surgeon, and restorative doctor who want to incorporate digital dentistry to the daily routine and enhance the level of services and collaboration they provide will strongly benefit from this two-day course.
Learning Objectives
- Understand the workflow of the different links in the digital dentistry chain and how to incorporate them into team practice
- Identify the benefits of digital dentistry as it relates to interdisciplinary dentistry
- Create radiographic and surgical templates from guided surgery software information
- Nerve detection, segmentation and implant placement for prosthetic-driven implant planning with guided surgery software
- Wax abutment techniques and scanbody techniques for implant-abutment restorations
- Identify the benefits of digital impressions compared to traditional impressions
- Understand the workflow between the dental office and lab when taking digital impressions
- Recognize how to incorporate recent technological advances as part of the treatment plan
- Understand the materials and processes available for CAD/CAM restorations

AIR bags save lives: more than 911 in the United States since 1987, and 374 last year alone, according to the National Center for Statistics and Analysis. More important, perhaps, just in the terms of numbers, they have prevented many thousands of serious and deforming injuries. A friend said she would never again drive a car without an air bag after witnessing a brutal accident in which the driver would almost certainly have been killed but instead walked away with a few bruises because he had been protected by an air bag.
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety reports that there are 23 percent fewer deaths than expected among drivers involved in head-on and front-angle crashes of cars equipped with air bags. The devices are more effective at savings lives among those driving large cars (a 30 percent reduction) than among those driving small cars (a 14 percent reduction).
A four-year study of 2,300 accidents in New Jersey conducted by plastic surgeons at the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in New Brunswick showed that motorists who used both lap and shoulder belts and drove cars equipped with air bags reduced their risk of serious facial injuries by 75 percent. Such drivers were also 90 percent less likely to require intensive hospital care following an accident.

The introduction of the iPad and other touch-screen devices has had an enormous impact on the consumption of programming created by the New York-based Sesame Workshop. Apps and new channels of distribution including Netflix and YouTibe, has put digital consumption of programming no par with television, says Scott Chambers, SVP of Global Media Distribution, in this interview with Beet.TV
We spoke with him earlier this week at the Kaltura Connect video conference in Manhattan.

Why emphasise on Bollywood for Oscars, asks Rituparno Ghosh
"I haven't seen 'Barfi!'. So I cannot comment on its suitability or unsuitability for the Oscars. What I'd like to point out is that all Indian Oscar nominations have come from Bollywood, barring a few 'politically perforced' Marathi films. Why this discrimination?": Ghosh tweeted Tuesday morning.
In the past five years, two regional films -- Marathi movie 'Harishchandrachi Factory' (2009) and Malayalam movie 'Adaminte Makan Abu' (2011) -- were sent as the country's official entries for Oscar in the best foreign film category.
"India has a strong enriching tradition of regional cinema being made all over the country. Why then is this continuing emphasis on Bollywood work for the Oscars?": Ghosh wrote.
Ghosh is credited for helming critically acclaimed and National award-winning films like 'Dahan', 'Utsab', 'Chokher Bali', 'Raincoat', 'Dosor', 'The Last Lear', 'Shob Charitro Kalponik' and 'Abohoman'. He has won international honours too, but none of his projects have been sent for the golden statuette.
"I do think that some of my films were legitimately nomination-worthy. But that is not the point," posted the 49-year-old.
"I also consider Anurag Basu ('Barfi!' director) to be an extremely talented colleague. What bugs me is the deliberate denial of the entire repertoire of cinema produced outside Mumbai. Are we to learn hereby that Indian cinema will forever be defined by Bollywood only?
"India, I'm afraid, has many film lovers but few connoisseurs of cinema. So, when they find a favourite film they go all out to celebrate it and fail to distinguish between the film and its cinematic content. As a result, we lose the proper perspective and the context," he added.
'Barfi!' was chosen out of 20 shortlisted films to be sent for the Oscars, by the Film Federation of India.
The film, released on September 14, features Ranbir Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra and Ileana D'Cruz. It narrates a moving tale of a deaf and mute boy and an autistic girl, depicting how love knows no language.

The founding team at Picky Bars is stoked to meet you. We're a group of pro athletes/misfits juggling training, racing, and traveling with owning and operating a blowing up business! We're always working our hardest to make sure that you get an awesome, fun, delicious, healthy product in your hands (and then in your mouth) as soon as possible. It is our mission to spread the Picky Love, and we hope you enjoy!
AKA "Tiny," is a pro-marathoner. She is just like a regular person, except smaller. When her fiance Ben does her laundry, he can't even fold her clothes with his big hands. Her marathon PR is 2:29.35 from Houston 2011." She is an emerging star with her recent 3rd American finish at the Boston Marathon 2013. Her laugh is pee-your-pants ridiculous, and she will literally fold in half in utter despair at a good joke. Since discovering she has Celiac disease, she laid the smack down on her diet and set the standard for quality in our bars.
Check out Steph's Twitter & Blog.
AKA "L-Train" is essentially a quirky dork but we love her. When she went cliff diving at the age of six with the teenagers, her Dad proudly proclaimed, "My girl's got balls the size of Texas!" And for some strange reason, Lauren thinks that's the coolest compliment ever and continues to try to earn it. She writes advice, blogs, and takes issue with not being able to lead four lives simultaneously. She graduated Stanford as one of the most decorated American distance runners of all time, has gone on to win two USA titles, and expects the next few years to be her best yet.

Jesse is the most talented person we know. Listed among his accomplishments are 3X Wildflower champion (first ever to win three in a row), All-American runner, mechanical engineering master, broken neck survivor, high tech company founder and MBA receiver. Even his gluten derived "aroma" became the inspiration for an amazing energy bar! Now he splits time between professional triathlon, building the Picky Empire, and last but certainly not least, husband duties. You could call also call him our lead tester - between work and training for three sports, he literally takes down six Picky Bars a day. In exchange, he provides some quirky marketing ideas and is responsible for making sure the business doesn't go broke.

text: Artificial photosynthesis gets competitive with nature Science 16 April 12 by Duncan Geere Tweet Shutterstock A team of chemists at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden has worked out a way of breaking down water into oxygen and protons at a speed that rivals the rate that real plants can do it.The researchers, led by Licheng Sun, have managed to create a catalyst that can process 300 oxygen molecules per second per catalyst, setting a world record for "turnover frequency". More importantly, though, it brings the team up to a rate that's competitive with nature -- which averages between 100 and 400 turnovers per second.The catalyst is complex, and consists of a ruthenium atom embedded in a plane of bypyridine dicarboxylic acid, with two isoquinolines projecting out above and below the plane. What that means in simpler terms is that it mimics natural photosynthesis processes, allowing it to begin to match those processes in terms of efficiency. Previously, even the best artificial catalysts struggled to achieve even one percent of the rate that photosynthesis occurs in nature.The research will have impacts for the development of hydrogen fuel. Producing hydrogen from water directly with light is a far more efficient way of generating the gas than generating electricity and then breaking oxygen up electrolytically. Sun told Treehugger: "I'm convinced that, within 10 years, this type of research will lead to technology that's inexpensive enough to compete with coal." The research is detailed in Nature Chemistry.Image credit: Shutterstock Edited by Nate Lanxon Comments Read more on Environment News & features about the environment, climate change and renewable energy Politics South Pacific islander loses climate change asylum plea in New Zealand Politics Minimum expectations met at Warsaw climate talks Science Study: plants most likely to survive climate change bloom earlier Science Explore global deforestation with this interactive map Politics Japan retreats from emissions targets Technology Facebook says its new data centre will run entirely on wind Latest on wired.co.uk

Horizon Forest Products' Carl Bahn Raises Nearly $4,000 for Muscular Dystrophy Association
Raleigh Branch Leader gets "locked up" during annual fundraising event to help fund a cure for muscular dystrophy, ALS, and related diseases
RALEIGH, NC, September 19, 2013
-- Carl Bahn, Raleigh Cabinet and Flooring Branch Team Leader for Horizon Forest Products, has successfully raised "bail" for the Muscular Dystrophy Association's Annual Lock-Up fundraiser. The Raleigh event was held on August 22nd at The Capital City Club in Raleigh. Bahn raised over $3,800 and has been a regular participant in this event since 2007.
"I had a great time and appreciate all the contributions that helped me meet my goal," adds Bahn. "Being involved with MDA and being a partif only a small partof helping to find a cure for muscular dystrophy and Lou Gehrig's Disease is so gratifying. I hope that through MDA and the efforts of so many people, that one day these diseases will be a thing of the past."
For more than 60 years, MDA has provided help and hope for families living with neuromuscular disease. The organization is the world leader in sponsoring research seeking the causes of, and effective treatments for, neuromuscular diseases. Almost every treatment currently in development for neuromuscular diseases is based on research funded by MDA.
The MDA Lock-Up is a community event that is a unique and fun way to help local children and adults who live with muscle disease. Money raised through these national Lock-Up events helps MDA in its mission of curing muscular dystrophy, ALS, and related diseases by funding worldwide research, providing comprehensive health care and support services, advocacy, and education.
