Jonah made his way into the school as quickly as possible without actually breaking into a run, dodging around packs of kids to lose anyone who might have followed him from the bus. By the time he was sure no one was after him, though, he was completely lost. He couldn't find the green-eyed girl among the hundreds of unfamiliar faces crowding the hallways. He wandered around for ten minutes, map in hand, before the tone for homeroom sounded. Once almost everyone else had disappeared into classrooms, one of the adult hall monitors spotted him and took him to his locker.
By the time he finally figured out his locker, the tone for first period had sounded and the hallways were swirling with kids again. His homeroom teacher, Mr. Berning, was standing in the classroom doorway when Jonah finally arrived.
"Ah, Mr. Wilder," Mr. Berning said brightly. "You made it. First day, huh?" He clasped Jonah's hand firmly in his own, smiling enthusiastically.
"Sorry I'm late," Jonah said, trying to catch his breath. "I couldn't find my locker, and then—"
"Welcome to James Buchanan Regional High School!" Mr. Berning went on. He was still shaking Jonah's hand. "You're going to love it here. We've got a great school, a great bunch of kids. Go Eagles! You're going to love it. What do you play?"
"Um, music or sports?"
"Anything!" Mr. Berning replied, looking intently at Jonah over his black-rimmed glasses.
"Sports, I'm game for just about everything. And I play piano, and a little guitar."
Mr. Berning finally released Jonah's hand to strum a few chords on air guitar. "Great, great! What's your next class?"
Jonah showed him his schedule.
"Ah! Music Theory. That's all the way across the school, and you're already late! Here—Peter!"
He grabbed the arm of a giant in a baseball jersey who was slipping into the classroom. "Peter, this is Jonah Wilder. Jonah, meet Peter Porter. Plays baseball and bass, isn't that right? Jonah is new, Peter—big first day today! Isn't that exciting? Would you please accompany him to Ms. Affretando's music studio?"
"Sure," Peter agreed amiably, and Mr. Berning wrote out a hall pass for them.
"Don't blow anything up without me, Mr. B!" Peter called as he and Jonah started down the hall.
Mr. Berning laughed. "Tell Jonah about blowing up pumpkins at the end of the month, would you?"
As Peter led the way through the labyrinth of corridors, he asked Jonah the usual questions about where he was from and why he had moved. He seemed pretty friendly, which Jonah wouldn't normally have expected from a hard-core athlete like him. He even waited while Jonah stopped by his locker.
"So, what's up with Mr. Berning and the, uh, exploding pumpkins?" Jonah asked when they got underway again.
"Last Friday of the month, if the class has enough points, we get to blow things up. Mr. Berning calls it Explosion Day. It's very educational," Peter explained with a grin. "You just missed exploding eggs with dry ice. Next time we're doing exploding pumpkin faces, for Halloween."
A couple of guys wearing sports jerseys and baseball caps lifted their chins at Peter and held out a hand as they approached.
"Porter," one of them said.
"Campbell, Rusty," Peter said back, slapping their hands.
After they'd passed, Peter explained that he was on the baseball team with them. "Do you play?" he asked Jonah.
"Uh, Little League, when I was a kid." His father had signed him up and then sat in the bleachers offering "encouragement" at every game.
"You can still play, though," Peter said, sounding more as if he were making a statement than asking a question. "You should come to our practice after school today. It's not an official practice, so it's pretty casual."
"I haven't played on a team since fifth grade," Jonah objected.
"Just come. Worst case, you can chase down balls and hang out. It'll be cool."
"Okay," Jonah said.
He agreed partly because he didn't think Peter was going to take no for an answer, and partly to show his mom that he was actually trying to "thrive," as she put it—because of course she'd want to know every detail of his day as soon as she got home from work. He could only hope that after-school baseball would be enough to distract her from his nearly getting into a fight before he'd even stepped foot inside the school.
~ ~ ~
Although Jonah met a few more friendly kids in his morning classes, none invited him to sit with them at lunch. As he stood at the edge of the cafeteria, his slightly worse-for-wear sack lunch in hand, that left him in the classic dilemma of new kids everywhere: Did he find a seat by himself and hope someone friendly would sit down near him, or did he find a likely looking table of kids and crash their party?
The cafeteria was a buzzing hive of unfamiliar faces. Everybody seemed to know somebody; all the round tables were occupied by at least a handful of people, and he didn't recognize any of them—until he spotted the girl from the bus, sitting at a table with a handful of other kids.
Even from a distance, he could tell that they were the type of kids who had found themselves left standing when the music stopped in that great game of musical chairs that was the high school social scene. Everyone else had a group to belong to: the only thing holding their group together was their shared inability to fit in anywhere else.
He was scanning the room for better prospects when the girl saw him and waved him over. He felt both relieved and doomed as he approached the table.
"Hey, Alaska," he called.
She looked amused at what he'd called her.
"Well, I don't know your real name," he explained. "Just that you're from Alaska."
"I know your name: Jonah Wilder!"
"How did you know that?"
"It was written on your backpack." She grinned, lazily peeling a slice of orange.
Jonah flushed. That must have been his mom's doing.
"Come on—you can sit with us," she said. "This is Penny, Franklin, Pelé, and Trudy."
Jonah took a seat and glanced around the table as he unpacked his lunch. They were a motley bunch. Penny was a small girl whose round face and red overalls made her look about ten years old. Franklin, wide-eyed and surprised-looking under a mess of curly red hair, instantly reminded Jonah of a rooster, while Pelé might have been a mouse, the way his eyes darted around; he even nibbled at his chicken sandwich with quick little bites.
Those three seemed shy or maybe a little wary of Jonah. But Trudy—black-skinned, all arms and legs, hair done up in braids and beads—made a show of giving Jonah the once-over.
"You've got something on your cheek," she said, dropping French fries into her mouth.
Jonah touched a hand to his face, feeling for what it might be.
"Other cheek," Trudy directed. "Now up a little. Higher. Little higher. Yeah, there."
Jonah rolled his eyes. "That's a mole."
"Oh!" She giggled hysterically. "That's all right, we like moles. Your mole can sit here, too."
Pelé shook his head and whirled his finger in the "crazy-loco" sign.
Trudy ignored him. "Where'd you pick up this one, Mirabelle?"
"I think I'm going to go by Alaska from now on, actually," the green-eyed girl replied. "I kinda like it."
Trudy made a face. "I'm not calling you Alaska."
"But I never liked Mirabelle. Alaska is cool." She waggled her eyebrows. "Hey, get it? 'Alaska is cool?'"
"Hardee-har-har. Where'd you pick him up, Alaska?"
"I didn't pick him up anywhere," Alaska replied, biting into the slice of orange. "We kind of fell in together on the bus this morning. Today's Jonah's first day at good old James Buchanan Regional."
"That right?" Trudy said, giving Jonah another look.
"Our deepest condolences," Franklin said mournfully.
Jonah shrugged. "It doesn't seem that bad, actually."
"Jonah's in a band," Penny piped up. Turning to Jonah, she said, "I was in Ms. Affretando's Music Theory with you this morning."
Ms. Affretando had asked him a few questions when she was introducing him to the class and the subject of the Panda Banshees came up—although, to his relief, she hadn't asked him for the band's name, which Jonah had always been iffy about. It had been Danny's suggestion.
"A real band? Really?" Alaska asked.
Jonah nodded. "Just a few of us in someone's garage. We weren't that good."
"What was the name of the band?"
Dang. Jonah took a big bite of his ham-and-cheese sandwich and chewed slowly, trying to think up a better name.
On the other hand, what did he care? He swallowed and cleared his throat. "The Panda Banshees."
As expected, that got snorts and laughs all around the table.
"It wasn't my idea," Jonah protested. "I wanted to call us Ghost Opera."
"That's not bad," Alaska said, but Trudy was not impressed.
"Oh, please," she said. "I can list ten band names cooler than that in sixty seconds."
Which she then did—or began to, anyway; people kept interrupting her with their own suggestions, which got increasingly outrageous.
"What about—what was it that you called Bull on the bus this morning?" Jonah asked Alaska.
Her eyes lit up. "Oh yeah! That would be a good band name: 'The Burping, Blasphemous Dogs.'"
Pelé had gone wide-eyed when Jonah mentioned Bull, as if he'd just thought of a really good name—but that wasn't what came out of his mouth after he gulped down the mouthful he'd been chewing.
"You're the kid who beat up Bull on the bus this morning!" he said, pointing a finger at Jonah.
That hushed everyone up. Jonah just blinked in surprise.
"How you talk, Pelé!" Trudy exclaimed. "You can tell just by looking at him that he didn't lay a finger on Bull."
Penny examined Jonah doubtfully. "You can?"
"No bleeding, no broken bones, no bruises. Ergo and therefore, no fight with Bull."
"I didn't say he fought him, I said he beat him up," Pelé insisted. "I heard it in the locker room. George McLackey and Brian Stoker were all like teasing Bull about getting beat up by a freshman half his size. Like, 'quickest take-down ever' and 'They're not asking for your wrestling trophy back, are they?' That kind of stuff."
"Well, I was there," Alaska said. "The only person who beat anyone up was me and Mr. Shakespeare. Bull and some other kids were throwing stuff at Jonah and me, but I used my extensive knowledge of Shakespearean insults to fend them off."
Jonah ducked his head and coughed. "Actually, Bull and I kind of had a second act after you got off the bus."
"What?!" Alaska exclaimed. "I told you not to fight him!"
"Well, I didn't," Jonah snapped. "He grabbed me from behind, like this—" He demonstrated on Franklin, who hunched his shoulders in surprise. "—and he fell on his back when I broke free. End of movie. Roll the credits and all that."
Alaska narrowed her eyes at him.
"Maybe it's end of movie for you, but Bull is looking for a sequel," Pelé said matter-of-factly. "He was saying how he's gonna get you back."
Trudy shook her head regretfully and gave Jonah a pitying look. "It all comes of running with the wrong crowd. Mirabelle's bad enough, but her and Shakespeare are the dog."
"Alaska," Alaska corrected her. "But, Pelé, how'd you hear Bull say all that? Bull's in tenth grade. You don't have gym with him."
"Prentiss locked Pelé in a locker after gym again," Penny said. "We have gym together the period before the tenth graders, so he was still trapped in the locker when Bull and those guys arrived."
"Oh, Pelé!" Alaska gave him a sympathetic look.
"Those no-good, dirty, rotten scoundrels got me again," Pelé acknowledged. "But there was a bunch of towels and gym clothes in there, so I kind of took a little nap. When I heard the tenth graders come in, I was going to shout for help, but then I heard Bull and them, so I was like, what's the point?"
"What'd he say?" Trudy prompted.
"He was mad. At first he was boasting how he's gonna get this kid and beat him up and all like that kind of talk that those kind of guys do, but then the other guys are like, 'No, no, you'll get suspended from the team,' so then Bull says he'll do it after school, like take the bus home and get off at your stop and pound the juice out of your gallbladder and break your fingers and stick your tongue to a freezing pole and rip it off and stick bugs in your ears and pine needles under your toenails and—"
"Okay, I get the basic idea," Jonah interrupted.
"But then those guys are like, 'No, you'll still get in trouble, and then the wrestling team won't go to state, wah, wah, wah,' so then they start talking about how to do it under the radar—like stealing your homework and egging your house and maybe roughing you up a little every day on the bus, but not enough to get in trouble, stuff like that."
Trudy fake-yawned. "That is so old school. They should steal his clothes out of his gym locker so he has to wear his gym uniform the rest of the day."
"Or make up a blog by him," Franklin said. "Something embarrassing, like bad rhyming love poems to, um, Miss Andrews—"
"—and then spread it on Facebook!" Trudy added.
Penny tapped her chin. "That would be traceable. It would be better if they swiped his phone without him knowing and posted weird Facebook updates on his account. The only problem would be how to swipe his phone."
Franklin waved a hand. "That would be simple. Someone distracts him while his locker's open, someone else sticks chewing gum in the lock so it doesn't quite latch—"
"Or they could just stuff him in the locker," Pelé suggested. "No one ever gets in trouble for stuffing a kid in a locker."
Jonah held up his hands. "Uh, yeah, so—excuse me, but whose side are you guys on, anyway?"
"Oh, this is all purely hypothetical," Penny assured him innocently. She was waving the spoon from her pudding cup around pedantically. "We often have little hypothetical discussions about this and that."
"Guys, guys!" Alaska waved her hands to get their attention. "We should be thinking of ways to stop them! We have to help Jonah out here."
An awkward silence fell over the group as Alaska looked from face to face for agreement. No one said anything.
And then no one said anything some more.
Franklin slowly raised a tortilla chip to his mouth and bit down.
It made a very loud crunching noise.
"We do?" he said, arching an eyebrow.
"Come on, people!" Alaska pleaded.
Trudy took a swig of water. "Sorry. I'm already lined up for detention this week. I can't get into any more trouble, and Bull is nothing but."
"I heard he made a substitute teacher cry once," Penny said.
Pelé just looked down at his half-empty lunch tray.
Jonah was embarrassed for them. He focused on his apple and chips, all business-like. "I don't need anyone's help," he said. "If Bull touches me again, the next thing he's going to remember is waking up in the emergency room."
He said it matter-of-factly, but with enough heat to make the others shift in their seats uncomfortably. In their faces he could see them recalculating their first impressions of him. They were thinking maybe he was a little more dangerous than their usual company.
He wondered if they could somehow tell he'd beaten up other kids before. He counted them all in his head. Six, if you counted the time he'd knocked down that loud-mouthed know-it-all of a sixth grader, Shelley Winter.
Six, if you didn't count the time he went after his father.
Trudy picked up her tray and stood up to go. "Don't worry about Bull," she told Jonah. "He's full of it. He talks big, but next week he won't even remember your name. Just lay low, and it'll blow over."
The words had barely died on her lips when Jonah noticed the assistant principal—the same guy who had toured Jonah and his mom around the school—working his way over to their table.
He didn't look like he was making a social call. He looked for all the world like the sheriff in an old Western—the weather-beaten face, the steel-blue eyes, the salt-and-pepper mustache. All he needed was a star and a gun holster.
He laid a firm hand on Jonah's shoulder.
"Mr. Wilder," he said. "I need to see you in my office for a few minutes."
Jonah slid his eyes over to Trudy in a What Were You Saying About It Blowing Over? kind of look.
"All right," he said, and to himself he was thinking that this had to be a new record for him—half a day between walking through the front doors to walking through the principal's door.
The assistant principal scanned the lunch table. "And Mirabelle Delacroix?"
Alaska raised her hand, ever so slowly. She looked stunned.
Trudy slapped Alaska's hand down. "Actually she only answers to Alaska now. Don't ask me why. I'd trade my old name for 'Mirabelle' any day of the week—except for now, since you're looking for someone named Mirabelle and I think the last time you and I had a little chat in your office we agreed that I'd better not come back anytime soon, right, Mr. Pincer? If it's someone to discipline you want, Alaska, née Mirabelle, is the gal for you." And she clapped Alaska on the back.
"That's fine, Trudy," Mr. Pincer said dryly. "I only need to borrow your friends for a few minutes—now, please."
Jonah and Alaska stood and followed Mr. Pincer out of the cafeteria, attracting curious stares and a few not-so-subtle comments. Judging by her pale face, Jonah guessed Alaska was the type of kid who never got in trouble. He wasn't sure what she had to worry about—she hadn't touched Bull.
Mr. Pincer led them through the busy administrative suite and ushered them into his small office. Family pictures and posters with inspirational quotes covered the walls. "Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever." So said Mahatma Gandhi, apparently.
"Wait here," Mr. Pincer said, indicating a couple of orange plastic chairs positioned in front of his desk. He ducked out of the office.
Jonah glanced over at Alaska, who looked like she'd swallowed a stone. Her eyes were glistening, and she bit her lip.
"Hey," Jonah whispered, "this is no big deal."
She glared at him contradictorily.
"Look, I've been in the hot seat more times than I can count, and I'm telling you, this is no big deal. Just let me do the talking—I'll say you were an innocent bystander, which you were."
Before she could reply, though, Mr. Pincer was standing in the doorway again.
"Are these the ones?" he asked, beckoning someone in the hall to come look.
The figure who appeared in the doorway was none other than Bull Grubinski, holding an ice pack to the back of his head.
"Yes, Mr. Pincer," Bull said, mild as butter on grits. "These are the ones who jumped me."

The price
The price
is the only marketing mix element that generates income, the rest of the elements causing expenses or investments. The company recovers through price the expenses caused by production, distribution and advertising operations, resulting in profit if the income is greater than the expenses.
The price
is also the most flexible element of the marketing mix, it can be easily modified, compared to the other variables. Also, it is the most noticeable for the competitors who can react very prompt to any change.
On the other side, price flexibility is limited by factors like:
Customers income
Psychological availability
of the customer to pay a certain price.
economic theory
, the price results from the demand-supply ratio on a certain market, creating the balance on the market. Therefore, confronting the demand and the supply, an
equilibrium price
results, where the supplied quantity equals the demanded quantity.
But the market has imbalances that cause the products to be traded at prices different from the equilibrium price. For this reason, marketing uses the
possible price
concept, defined by:
The possible price is the one a
ccepted by the trade participants
. There are situations when different customers accept to pay different prices for the same product.
The possible price is
not unique
, but oscillates between limits depending on the negotiation availability of the trade participants, each agreeing on different price levels.
The possible price
contains much information
– the requested quantity, customer categories, customer income. On the other side, the price offers the clients information about the product quality, high quality products are associated with high prices.
The possible price can be determined both
internally and externally
. It is influenced by both internal competition and international markets.
The possible price is
dynamic, diverse and standardized
. It is dynamic because the price can be change according to market conditions changes. Diversity results from different price levels from different geographic regions or market segments. The price must also comply with the laws and standards at a certain moment.
When determining the price, the following should be considered:
Achieving the desired profit level
– setting the price begins with analyzing the profitability rates based on fixed and variable costs.
Analyzing customer behavior
– as a base for determining the possible price, considering that some people accept higher prices for different psychological reasons (social status, group affiliation, individual values).
Demand estimation
– calculating the demanded quantity for different price levels. The demand elasticity for different product categories should be considered.
Anticipating competitors' reaction
– the prices should be adjusted to competitors' prices so that the customers don't choose the competition.
The desired market share
– low prices can be used for a short period in order to increase the market share that could considerably diminish the profits.
Decision makers' objectives
– determining the price must follow guidelines set by the company management or shareholders.
Correlating the price with the other marketing mix elements.
The price depends mostly of the type of products sold and their quality. Usually, products from the same category have higher prices if the quality is higher. Also, the price depends on the distribution and advertising investments.

Cardiff Met Ladies maintained their seven point lead at the top of the Welsh Premier Women's League by winning 5-0 against Aberystwyth Town.
The league leaders led at the break through a goal scored by Georgie Malpas just before the half hour but just two minutes into the second half, they went further ahead when Sophie Scherschel netted the second. Ellie Sergeant made it three and Emily Allen joined her on the scoresheet, before Scherschel completed her double in injury time.
PILCS contined the chase in second place as they bounced back from defeat seven days earlier to beat Cardiff City FC 4-1. City did take a sixth minute lead through Lisa Bird but Ceri Hudson hit back quickly and Kate Jeremiah ensured that PILCS then went in front midway through the first half. The game remained in the balance until the dying minutes, when Amy Thrupp scored twice to sew up the points.
Wrexham cemented themselves in the mid-table with a 2-1 victory over Llandudno, who remain one place below them. Emma Robson netted the only goal of the first half for Wrexham and after Llandudno had equalised just after the hour with a strike from Stacey Treadwell, Laura Mitchell settled matters in Wrexham's favour with fourteen minutes remaining.
Rhyl & Prestatyn kept up their climb away from danger and are heading towards mid-table security following their second victory in successive weeks. Laura Williams scored the only goal of the game, midway through the second half, to secure a crucial win against Newcastle Emlyn.

Statistics from National Highway Traffic Safety Administration show that 37,461 people were killed on the road in 2016. Of those, 3,450 fatalities resulted from a form of distracted driving. However with the added awareness campaigns for distracted driving, in 2017 the fatality count decreased to 3,166, accounting for 8.5% of all road deaths that year. If you have been involved in a car crash with a negligent driver, you need an experienced car accident attorney to fight your battle in court!
What is Negligent Driving?
Negligent driving is the failure to take proper care or attention to the road while operating any form of automobile. Drivers not adhering to the rules of the road can endanger other drivers and passengers. Within the state of Nevada, negligent driving falls under NRS 484B.653.
What are the Different Forms of Negligent Driving?
Drivers may be charged with negligence if they are caught:
- Speeding
- Running red lights
- Disregarding an officer's order to stop the vehicle
- Hitting medians and shoulders while driving
- Driving recklessly
What is Distracted Driving?
Distracted driving is a perfect example of negligence because it illustrates a wide range of careless conduct that endangers the safety of others. Some of the more common tasks that fall under the distracted driving umbrella include but are not limited to the following:
- Texting, talking, or gaming
- Grooming, eating, or drinking
- Reading books, newspapers, phone screens, or maps
- Conversing with passengers
- Watching videos/reading billboards
- Fixing side mirrors, A/C units
- Adjusting radio, navigation system, etc.
- Reaching in the back seat
Who is Liable for Accidents Caused by Negligent Driving?
When drivers travel on roadways, they agree to adhere to the rules of the road. By engaging in any form of negligent or distracted driving, they are 100% responsible for damages and injuries as a result of any car accidents. Because negligence does not require intentional conduct, drivers are liable whether they were ignorant of the risks or voluntarily chose to ignore them. Their negligent conduct is "punished" through extraction of a monetary award compensating the injured victim for damages. If you feel you have been a victim of negligent driving you will need an experienced car accident attorney to help you navigate through the legal proceedings.
What are the Penalties for Negligent Driving in Nevada?
Negligent driving falls under the reckless driving category in Nevada state law.
- It is unlawful for a person to:
- Drive a vehicle in willful or wanton disregard of the safety of persons or property.
A person who violates paragraph (a) of subsection 1 is guilty of a misdemeanor and:
- For the first offense, shall be punished:
- By a fine of not less than $250 but not more than $1,000; or
- By both fine and imprisonment in the county jail for not more than 6 months.
- For the second offense, shall be punished:
- By a fine of not less than $1,000 but not more than $1,500; or
- By both fine and imprisonment in the county jail for not more than 6 months.
- For the third and each subsequent offense, shall be punished:
- By a fine of not less than $1,500 but not more than $2,000; or
- By both fine and imprisonment in the county jail for not more than 6 months.
Fatality Caused by Negligent Driving
However, if a fatality is the result of negligent driving, the following pertains:
"a person who does any act or neglects any duty imposed by law while driving or in actual physical control of any vehicle in willful or wanton disregard of the safety of persons or property, if the act or neglect of duty proximately causes the death of or substantial bodily harm to another person, is guilty of a category B felony and shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for a minimum term of not less than 1 year and a maximum term of not more than 6 years and by a fine of not less than $2,000 but not more than $5,000."

NC Dental Home Care for Our Patient's Teeth & More
If you would like a healthy, beautiful smile that lasts a lifetime, the team at Carolina Dental Arts is here to help you achieve this goal. Alongside our general dentistry treatments, one of the most important ways to accomplish this is dental home care in Raleigh, Goldsboro and throughout North Carolina. Along with eating balanced meals and reducing unhealthy snacks, correctly using dental tools helps control the plaque and bacteria that causes dental disease. Below, we have listed a few dental care tips that you can use at home.
How to Properly Brush Your Teeth
Brushing your teeth is an effective way to attain oral health. Our dentistsrecommend using an ADA-approved soft bristle brush and toothpaste to brush at least twice a day, especially before bedtime. We have provided these easy steps for how to brush your teeth in NC:
- First, place the brush at a 45 degree angle at the gums and gently brush in a small, circular motion. Make sure that you always feel the bristles on the gums.
- Brush the outer, inner and biting surfaces of each tooth, and use the tip of the brush to clean the inside of your front teeth.
- Lastly, brush your tongue to remove bacteria and freshen your breath.
Electric toothbrushes are also beneficial, as they are easy to use and thoroughly remove plaque. Simply place the bristles on your gum and allow the brush to clean your teeth.
How to Floss Your Teeth
Clean between your teeth and under your gumline by flossing every day. This not only helps clean the spaces, but it disrupts plaque colonies from building up and damaging the gums, teeth and bone. Here is how our NC patients can floss their teeth:
- Take 12 to 16 inches of dental floss and wrap it around your first fingers and hold in place with your thumbs, leaving about 2 inches of floss between your hands.
- Use your thumbs and forefingers to guide the floss as you insert in between the teeth using a sawing motion.
- Curve the floss into a "C" shape around each tooth and under the gumline. Gently move the floss up and down, as this cleans the side of each tooth.
If you have trouble using conventional floss, try floss holders for easy cleaning.
Rinsing Your Mouth for Dental Care at Home
After brushing and flossing, and after a meal if you can't brush, rinse your mouth out with water. Consult with your dentist or dental hygienist to see if using an over-the-counter mouth rinse or other dental hygiene tools, such as interdental brushes, rubber tip stimulators, tongue cleaners, irrigation devices, fluoride or medicated rinses, is right for you.
The team at Carolina Dental Arts would be happy to help you create a dental hygiene routine that aids you in your success toward at home dental care in NC. Talk with us at your next appointment or contact us today with your questions.
Carolina Dental Arts offers exceptional dental procedures in North Carolina at our locations across the state, including Falls Of Neuse, Glenwood South, Goldsboro and New Bern Ave.

Judge orders recount in state Senate race; could take 1 weekPosted: Updated:
The results of one Hudson Valley election may not be learned for another week after a judge ordered that all emergency and absentee ballots remain uncounted for now.
Democrat Suzi Oppenheimer is currently leading her Republican opponent Bob Cohen by a mere 180 votes, leaving the two with 50 percentage points each with 80 percent of the vote already having been counted.
The results of this election could have a big impact in Albany, where out of the 62 seats, Democrats won 29 last night while republicans took 30, with three races still up for grabs, including Oppenheimer and Cohen's.
Depending on the outcome of those other undecided races, a win for Cohen could mean there will be an equal number of Democrats and Republicans in the state Senate.
A hearing is scheduled for a week from today to determine how election officials will go about counting the remaining ballots.

Concert for gralla and piano
The concert interpret by the brothers Ivó and Nil Jordà, graller and pianist respectively, it is a concert of chamber music with traditional origin music for gralla and piano.
The gralla is a popular instrument of our country that offers interpretive possibilities and it elevates itself to the status of concert instrument, getting it prominent popular. This fact has made some composers to write for gralla and piano pieces concert.
This chamber music has its origins in 1996 and it is an initiative of Jordi Fàbregas, Marcel Casellas and Toni Oró - recognised composers and instrumentalists all three of them. When they started to write the three first pieces from the gralla and piano concert, they also break new ways to this music. All three songs were released in the Tradicionàrius from 96. The success of that first experience was so remarkable that it was joined by seven other composers, all of whom are very prominent in the world of traditional and folk music of our country and all ten songs were compiled in a book (Ten pieces for gralla and piano, Editions C.A.T.) which was presented in a concert in the Tradicionàrius from 98.
In these topics of concert, the gralla and piano blend very well and they take over for themselves, in any case none of both dominates the other. Both instruments are played in a soloist way, and the moments of brilliance are alternated with harmony and balance.
Chamber music, origin tradition, for gralla and piano: a new concept and a sound that pleasantly surprised, as we are used to identify the sound of the gralla with the party, the castellers (human towers) or the gegants. These ten pieces show that the gralla is an instrument of chamber as other, and it can interpret themes concert without other problems which entail impeccable tuning and refining.
It is easy to guess that this music is not interpreted very often because of two reasons: the difficulty of interpretation of the issues, especially for gralla, and the nearly lack of coexistence between the two instruments until now. Indeed, not until now it had largely left the circle of Traditional Music School where occasionally, teachers and students interpret some theme (if teachers do to show how far you can get with the gralla when work thoroughly, the advanced students are facing a sort of challenge to demonstrate the level of mastery of the instrument).
From the moment that the brothers Ivó and Nil Jordà performed this concert over Catalonia, it increased the interest in this combination of instruments, to the extent that some other players included it in their repertoire theme and other composers provided new parts.
Ivó and Nil have composed new pieces to be performed in this format, and they even incorporated some instrument such as the fiscorn, which accompanies them in the concerts.

Are You Tired Of Breaking Your Back In The Garden?
Most of us absolutely love being able to take the best possible care of our homes. After all, there's nothing quite like being able to walk through your home and see just how much all of your hard work has paid off. However, there are plenty of people for whom there is one frustrating black mark on that: their garden. Everyone would love a beautiful garden but the problem is that it often feels like the hard work in a garden never stops. But that's not necessarily the way things have to be! Here are some things that you can do to make your garden beautiful without breaking your back every day.
Keep things simple
One of the most common mistakes that a lot of people make when it comes to their garden is that they often end up letting their ambitions get away with them. Sure, the idea of a garden with a beautiful lawn, a flower bed, and a load of space to grow your own vegetables is a wonderful one, but the truth is that doing that can be seriously exhausting. Instead, why not just pick something simple for your garden. If you want a space for you and the kids to place, then a lawn is great. If you just want something wonderful to look at then turn it into a wildflower garden instead. Super passionate about growing your own veg? Concentrate on that. On their own, none of these things take huge amounts of effort and can really improve your home.
Take some shortcuts
One of the problems with gardening is that it can often be some pretty backbreaking work. Whether that's not something that you're physically able to do or you simply don't have the time or energy to deal with it outside of the other things in your life, there are plenty of shortcuts that you can take that will make your life easier. Services like LazyLawn allow you to lay down artificial grass that feels just like the real thing without having to worry about mowing it all the time. Or if you're trying to plant things around the garden then don't bother putting them in neat and straight lines, just throw them out into the soil and see what happens. Not only is that going to be a great way to save yourself a whole lot of time and effort but it can also give your garden a beautifully wild look as well.
If you really want to make sure that your home is the best possible place and that you're as happy and comfortable as you can be, then the best thing to do is often the simplest. Decide what is most important to you and adjust your routine so that you're able to fit working on your garden in alongside the time you would spend on the interiors of your home. If you're doing something you love, you're able to make it a part of your routine and you're looking forward to seeing the end result it's going to feel like a whole lot less effort.

This past Sunday was the annual Stuntfest at the Atlanta Motor Speedway. And you already know that the Stuntworld Guys put on quite a show. This was my third consecutive year supporting Stuntfest (would have been my fourth, but I went to a video shoot instead), and haven't been disappointed. Everyone knows I'm critical about car shows, and I'm reminded about it every show in Georgia that I go to. I don't mind driving to a car show, I don't mind paying to get into the show, I don't mind paying for food and drinks at the show, but if I'm doing the three previous things, there better be some cars there. Trust and believe, that failure in Madison is still being talked about.
And if you're wondering if I had a great time, my response is this: If I missed Mob Wives to attend this show, then you know I had a great time. I don't miss Mob Wives for anything... except Stuntfest.
One thing about me is that I watch who's around me. I'm a New Yorker and by nature, I know my surroundings. In my opinion, the crowd's favorite cars went to any and every Chevy Chevelle that was produced in 1968-1972. I must have heard "That Challenger is alright, but that Chevelle is hard" about 148 times Sunday. The way those guys were staring at the body, the paint, the engine, the wheels, and the interior... you would have thought they were staring at a Magic City Stripper. And if you're talking to someone and a Chevelle drove by, forget the rest of the conversation since you would have lost your train of thought. I told you I watch my surroundings. People watching at car shows is very entertaining, yet knowledgeable at the same time. I just said I'm not from the South, so naturally, my taste in cars is different. I'm not a donk person. Never have been, never will be. I'll take a '67 Mustang or a lowrider, but not a donk. I don't discredit donks, but I look for other people's reactions for knowledge. But I'll tell you one thing- I take a donk over a pickup truck anyday.
I can't tell you a thing about the performances, because I didn't pay attention to them. I know you want me to shut up, so here's some photos...
(My sister would love this car...)
(I fell in love with the color. The way the sun hit it ever so perfectly...)
That's enough... For the rest of the photos, check out my 2012 Stuntfest Gallery...
P.S. I think I saw Forgiato's entire wheel collection there.

Tottenham Hotspur's South Korean forward Son Heung-min said on Tuesday he feels cautious rather than confident about the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
Son is one of the 28 players who made South Korea's provisional roster for the World Cup in Russia which was unveiled Monday, reports Yonhap news agency.
South Korean head coach Shin Tae-yong needs to drop five players from the preliminary list to confirm his final 23-man squad by June 4, but Son is considered one of the players who is safe from roster cuts due to his performance in Europe.
"In my first World Cup in 2014, I had big expectations and confidence, but for this year's World Cup, I feel cautious and actually have some concerns," Son said in a press conference organised by his sponsor Adidas.
"I learned from my previous experience that confidence doesn't always bring success at the World Cup. I hope many players can recognise this."
South Korea are considered the weakest team in Group F at the 2018 World Cup. South Korea will open their Group F campaign with Sweden in Nizhny Novgorod on June 18 and will face Mexico five days later in Rostov-on-Don. Then they will meet defending champions, Germany, in Kazan on June 27.
"I really think that we can see humiliation," he said. "I think if we can just pass the group stage, that will be a success. I'm really desperate for this World Cup."

It's hard to imagine, but there was a time when San Diego wasn't so sure about fish tacos. Ralph Rubio helped change all that.
It's hard to imagine, I know, but there was a time when San Diego wasn't so sure about fish tacos.
When Ralph Rubio opened the inaugural Rubio's on Mission Bay Drive in Pacific Beach, people still expected a taco to have a crunchy shell and contain some sort of beef. It took some time before Rubio's original fish taco, with its soft, yellow corn tortillas and beer-battered fish, caught on.
"There was a lot of resistance. I was surprised when people would say, "What? Fish in a tortilla? What are you thinking?'" Rubio told me on the latest episode of "I Made it in San Diego," VOSD's podcast about the people behind the region's businesses. "That thought never occurred to me. And so I was I was ignorant of that, or that possibility. I didn't realize what a marketing challenge I was in for."
We all know how things turned out, though. San Diego ultimately embraced fish tacos so hard that they're now the thing people seek out when they visit the city.
In fact, Rubio's initial challenge of marketing the fish taco eventually morphed into the opposite problem: The company grew so much, so quickly, that it created a whole new set of problems.
And even though the fish taco is now a San Diego icon, Rubio said he's also had to pull items off the menu on occasion when they proved unsuccessful, including a calamari burrito and a cheeseburger taco.
The company has pivoted to recent years to focus on fresh seafood and healthier fare.
"People were looking for delicious grilled seafood options and it's hard to get delicious grilled seafood in a fast-casual setting anywhere in the United States. That was our market opportunity. And so that's what we went after," Rubio said.

At last year's HellRider Adventure Duathlon, Nikalas Cook took second spot in the solo race. Here he talks to TrailPlus course designer Ian Atkinson about constructing the perfect race course, the race's move to a new venue in Henley and hopefully getting some heads-up knowledge that might help him move up one spot on the podium.
Nikalas Cook: How did you get involved with TrailPlus and course designing?
Ian Atkinson: I was involved with TrailPlus almost from day one. The company started out doing Adventure Racing training camps in the Lakes and I went along to one for a laugh. I obviously rode alright, ended up teaching at subsequent camps and that then led to me designing the race courses.
NC: What do you look for in a bike course for an event like HellRider or the Adventure Challenge Series?
IA: Variety more than anything else. There are usually big numbers at the events so I always try and have an open flowing start. I'll then always try and include sections of singletrack but I also like to throw in areas where people have to choose their own lines and give racers something that they haven't done before.
NC: It must be a big challenge making a course that's interesting for more experienced riders but not intimidating for novices. How do you do that?
IA: My golden rule is that it has to be rideable across the field. If they out in a bit of effort, they can do it. I might include some rollers and doubles that novices can just roll over but which the faster guys will be able to gap. It's about hitting that middle ground and setting a trail that becomes more interesting and challenging the faster you ride it. I know what works, it's just sometimes a challenge finding it.
NC: You're a mountain biker yourself, where are your favourite trails and where's your favourite race location?
IA: When I've got time to ride, I don't really care as long as I'm riding. I'm from the Lakes though so I guess that'd be my personal choice. It's a really hard area for races though as it's tough on novices. My favourite for races has to be Hawley in Surrey. It's not massively hilly but the terrain is really varied and there are always lots of nice little bits to discover.
NC: The venue for HellRider is changing to the Hambleden Estate near Henley. Have you had a chance to have a look yet and any thoughts what the course will be like?
IA: We've done a few running events from there so I've got a good idea. There are some very hard hills, so finding the right balance to keep all abilities happy will be a challenge. There's no real singletrack at the moment so I'm going to have to create some.
NC: From racing last year, the course was bang on. I found something new or a better line on each of my eight bike laps, you had a nice descent into transition to catch your breath and a slow grind out which let you take food onboard. How will this year's compare?
IA: I'm really hoping it'll be similar. It's only just down the road so the terrain isn't wildly different. I'll definitely give it the same feel early on the lap to break the field up a bit but this year there's going to be a technical section near the finish that'll add another dimension.
NC: Well, from my point of view coming from the Peak District, the hillier and more technical the better!
IA: (laughing) I'll bear that in mind but I'm not sure everyone will feel like that!
NC: Last year's race was on the last day of the summer, the day before the Jubilee and on bone-dry fast trails. When I used to live in London I used to ride a fair bit in the area and it can get claggy and slippery in the wet. Do you think it'll be okay if it's a wet one?
IA: The steepness of the hills means it'll be well drained and I always give myself room to tweak the course to the weather conditions. If I have to ease a corner on a descent, I will, I always build options in. We had to completely re-hash the course at the recent Grizedale race because of the snow and that still went ahead and people enjoyed themselves.
This year's HellRider Adventure Challenge Duathlon takes place on Saturday 11th May at the Hambledon Estate Nr Henley on Thames. There's camping and showers onsite as well as live music, food and a bar. You can enter as a solo racer or in teams of three or five people. If you don't fancy the running, for the first time this year there's a bike only race, which would be ideal preparation if you're thinking of one of the 12 or 24 hour MTB races later in the year.

Park Sentry testimonial by Park MVP, a leading valet parking company located in northeast Ohio.
Demonstration of our Park Sentry product
Park Sentry® protects thousands of columns from vehicle collisions. This map shows the locations of many of these Park Sentry® installations in North America. Please contact us for more information about any of these projects.
This video photo show has a number of installations of Park Sentry in various parking garage structures installed around concrete columns.
This video shows how the Park Sentry® product is easily customized and installed in a parking structure. In addition, you can see the Park Sentry in action and installed in both yellow and black colors.
Animated video showing how the modular Park Sentry system surrounds a column.
Short demonstration on the new Sentry Cinch Strap Locking Buckle
Park Sentry is molded in two different colors, yellow and black. This auto dealership combined both to create a very visible column cover that is both functional and attractive.
Because Park Sentry is constructed of Corners and Planks, it is possible to mix the colors to create a combination that can increase visibility. This shows a Park Sentry with yellow corners and black planks

Automobiles can now safely park much closer to structural columns without the worry about scraping or denting because of the addition of impact-absorbing Park Sentry
Corners take much more abuse than the flat portion of a square column. Park Sentry provides greater thickness and density at the corners to allow for improved impact absorption at these critical areas.

Susquehanna Township lawmaker prepares for challenging legislative session
During swearing-in ceremonies at the state Capitol today, Rep. Sue Helm (R-Susquehanna Township) took the oath of office, beginning her third, two-year term in the state House serving the residents of the 104th Legislative District in Dauphin County.
"I want to thank the citizens of the 104th District for placing their trust in me to continue sharing their views and concerns with my colleagues in Harrisburg," Helm said. "It is an honor and a privilege to work on their behalf fighting for fiscal restraint and putting state government back on the side of taxpayers."
Among Helm's priorities is addressing the more than $4 billion structural deficit that is likely to mount by the end of the current fiscal year, June 30. Contributing to this growing problem is the loss of nearly $3 billion in federal stimulus funding and the ever-growing debt to the federal government for unemployment compensation insurance. Tied into this is the need to grow Pennsylvania's economy and create jobs for the thousands of citizens who continue to be out of work.
"Taxing, borrowing and spending are not the cures for state government's problems," Helm said. "As stewards of the taxpayers' dollars, the Legislature has an obligation to ensure that the state remains financially solvent without placing additional burdens on the citizens. Although our budget situation is dire, I believe we can solve the impending fiscal troubles by reducing spending, ending the nearly decade-long policy of borrowing, and eliminating waste and fraud in many entitlement programs."
Helm also plans to reintroduce legislation that would revise the state's Megan's Law website and impose tougher penalties on those who prey upon children. In response to Pennsylvania Auditor General Jack Wagner's performance audit last year, Helm drafted House Bill 1581, which would have required the Megan's Law website to be more user-friendly, contain up-to-date photographs and address information, permit searches within a specific geographical area and contain an e-mail subscription feature for the public to receive updates when sexual offenders move into a specified area.
Another goal of Helm's is to prohibit private transfer fees, or resale fees, from being included, often unknown to the buyer, in a real estate sales agreement. These fees permit a property developer or builder to collect a percentage of the sales price from the seller each time the property is sold during a 99-year period. Private transfer fees are a new tool companies use to gain access to cash in the depressed housing market, at the expense of the homeowner.
"I believe this is an important consumer protection issue and one that should help to stabilize the housing market," Helm said. "Private transfer fees could be a surprise during settlement. Depending on the rate, private transfer fees could make a difference between a house selling or not."
Helm also remains committed to establishing an emergency medical facility in northern Dauphin County. Since the House Republican Policy Committee held a hearing on this issue in 2008, support from local residents has continued to grow.
"Traveling a long distance is one of the main reasons that the average age-adjusted death rate in rural areas is much higher than in suburban or urban areas," Helm said, noting that the average travel time to the closest major hospital is 45 minutes.
With an agenda full of big-ticket items, the General Assembly has its work cut out for it in the coming months; however, with a new governor set to take office in a couple of weeks, Helm is confident that many issues facing Pennsylvania will be addressed.
To keep residents informed about legislative news and state government information, Helm maintains a legislative website at SueHelm.net. Residents may also sign up to receive periodic news e-mails from Helm's office by entering their e-mail address and ZIP code in the top, right corner of her website. Those with Facebook can follow Helm's legislative news by logging onto Facebook.com/RepHelm.
In addition, Helm operates two offices in the 104th District: the Susquehanna Township office is located at 2090 Linglestown Road, Suite 100, Harrisburg, phone 717-651-0100; and the Elizabethville office is located at 16 E. Main Street, phone 717-362-1119.
The 104th District includes the following municipalities in Dauphin County: The boroughs of Berrysburg, Dauphin, Elizabethville, Gratz, Halifax, Lykens, Millersburg, Paxtang, Penbrook, Pillow and Williamstown; and the townships of Halifax, Jackson, Jefferson, Lykens, Middle Paxton, Mifflin, Reed, Rush, Susquehanna, parts of Swatara, Upper Paxton, Washington, Wayne, Wiconisco and Williams.

AKHP Public Lecture April 28th: Herbal Therapy
April 28th 2018, 10:00 am
Khorog, Tajikistan
Shirinbek Davlatmamadov
Herbal Practitioner, Master-Category Surgeon, Member of the Association of Traditional Practitioners of the Republic of Tajikistan
Herbal therapy is treatment with medicinal herbs. Medicinal herbs and chemically synthesised medicines have one major difference – that is, medicinal plants can be used for an extended period of time without causing any side effects. However, before turning to medicinal herbs, one should find out which plants are good for humans, and learn about plants' dosage and on-treatment periods. Herbal practitioners should also know about exact seasons to collect herbs; and be proficient in drying and storing medicinal plants.
Badakhshan has more than 80 varieties of medicinal herbs that are approved and recommended by modern medicine. The lecture will provide short descriptions of plants, their range of application, chemical compositions, medicinal properties, collection seasons, forms of administration (tincture, tea, or dried product), and side effects.
In 1964, Shirinbek Davlatmamadov graduated from A. Sino Medical Institute and started his professional career as a doctor in Ishkashim Hospital. In 1974, he began working as a Doctor for Khorog Oblast Hospital. In 1973, the Ministry of Healthcare certified him as "Category-1 Surgeon" and as a "Master-Category Surgeon" in 1979. From 1992 to 2005, he was the Head Physician of the Rehabilitation Clinic under Avdj Mineral Springs in Ishkashim Rayon. In 2006, Davlatmamadov was elected as the Chairperson of "Djamshed" Limited Liability Company; and in 2010 as the Chairperson of "Gulu Giyokh" (Flowers and Herbs) non-government organisation.
Davlatmamadov has published more than 15 research papers in the Healthcare in Tajikistan Magazine. He published a monograph on Medicinal Mineral Springs in Pamir in 1994 and a book dedicated to Medicinal Mineral Springs in Badakhshan in 2006. Davlatmamadov is a member of the Association of Traditional Practitioners of the Republic of Tajikistan. He has participated in six international congresses on herbal therapy and traditional medicine. He has also been awarded with the certificate The Best Traditional Practitioner of the Republic of Tajikistan.
