Dental crowns can both improve the appearance and the functionality of your smile. With such a variety of uses, understanding dental crowns may seem confusing. Luckily, your dentist can help you understand these versatile dental restorations. Learn more about dental crowns and how they benefit you with your dentist at Stiles Family Dentistry in Salem, NH.
What is a dental crown?
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped dental restoration which fits on top of a tooth, covering it on all sides. A dental laboratory creates the dental crown, customizing it specifically for your mouth based on an impression taken by your dentist. Your dentist and the laboratory work together to color-match the crown to your natural teeth, ensuring it blends into your smile. Made from porcelain, dental crowns have similar light-reflecting qualities as natural teeth and are strong and durable.
What can dental crowns do for me?
Dental crowns have many uses, including for both aesthetic and functional improvements. Dentists usually use dental crowns in the following situations:
- to strengthen a weakened or broken tooth
- to stabilize a tooth with a large filling
- to improve the appearance of a yellowed, discolored or misshapen tooth
- to complete a dental implant and replace a missing tooth
- to restore the biting surface and functionality of a worn down tooth
Dental Crowns in Salem, NH
Dental crowns usually require two appointments. At your first appointment, your dentist prepares the tooth to receive the crown. This process involves removing parts of the tooth's enamel from the sides and top of the tooth and shaping it into the correct form to fit inside of the dental crown. With the tooth prepared, your dentist takes an impression of your mouth which is then sent to the dental laboratory responsible for creating the crown. A temporary crown protects your tooth during the duration of time the laboratory requires to create the crown, usually about two weeks. At your second appointment, which occurs after the finished crown returns to your dentist's office, the final restoration permanently replaces the temporary crown.
For more information on dental crowns, please contact Dr. Nicholas Papapetros, Dr. Jhon Giraldo and Dr. Paul Masterson at Stiles Family Dentistry in Salem, NH. Call (603) 893-4538 to schedule your consultation for dental crowns today!

Calling NUnit from NAnt Pragmatically
Often times when calling NUnit tests from NAnt scripts we use the nunit2 NAnt task. However, as NAnt version march on and NUnit versions do as well, one gets into assembly binding problems. You might using NUnit 220.127.116.11 and NAnt's compiled with 126.96.36.199. This can be solved with assembly binding redirects but, eh. Poo. This week on the XP Mailing List Charlie Poole said this:
If it's not too much trouble, revise your testing target to use <exec> rather than <nunit2> Since my copy of NUnit itself is continually evolving, I use <exec> for testing NUnit. You could also keep both targets in the script, since the task will most likely be upgraded soon. - Charlie Poole
I'd been avoiding having to call NUnitConsole.exe from the exec task just because it felt "icky." However, seeing that Charlie and he has +1 Charisma when attacking with NUnit, I am rethinking my objections. Then he added:
One bit of good news: we're working on creating a stable interface for tools
like Nant to use across NUnit versions. - Charlie Poole
Yay! I await it eagerly. While you're reading this, go get TestDriven.NET and start reading Jamie Cansdale's Blog. I'm surprised more people aren't impressed that his stuff supports the Express SKUs considering that Add-Ins aren't supported (explicitly locked out) with Express.

Welcome to my online home. I'm Dee Connor, social media mogul extraordinaire. I live in the far reaches of Cornwall, home to pixies and other small folk of ancient lore. I spend much of my time parked in front of my laptop creating graphics for online casinos. It is beyond fun. It's the best job I could ever wish to have. I'm my own boss, getting up when the whim strikes me and plugging away late into the night, if that is what strikes my fancy.
Who do I work for? I've had contracts with most of the big online casinos like LeoVegas and 7red. They send me graphics projects. Sometimes I'm generating new gems for their online slots games to spit out when you win, and other times I have creating winning memes for Facebook announcements. I often think it is amazing that anybody actually pays me to make stuff up like this.
So, what will my blog be about? Oh, whatever might come my way. I love hiking and the radical cliffs of Cornwall are awesome for finding inspiration. If you walk out on a grey day, only the kind that the UK can bring, the power of the ocean can rip your breath away. I do wonder if magic had any part in the creation of our little country. Did King Arthur really exist? I've gone out to the park of Tintagle a couple times. It's almost like the walls whisper to you there.
In all reality, I'm something of a throwback. I kind of hate the one bedroom flat I rent in a very ordinary complex. I drive a Prius. I wear trainers and yoga pants. I am boring. I think I'd like to be less boring and like myself a bit better. Anyway, I hope you enjoy reading my stuff from time to time.

Weekly Gossips:
We all know that Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and Shivaay are going to clash at the box office on Diwali. ADHM marks the comeback of Karan Johar as a director and features an ensemble cast of Ranbir, Fawad, Anushka and Aishwarya Rai. On the other hand, Shivaay is Ajay Devgn's most ambitious project.
Shivaay trailer has already been released and made a massive impact. Ae Dil Hai Mushkil promo is yet to come. According to the reports, the teaser of Ranbir starrer has been postponed twice.
The first teaser was expected to be out in July. Karan Johar showed the teaser to his friends in the industry and they were not so pleased with it and gave suggestions to improve it. Karan decided to change few things and postponed it to the second week of August.
However, Shivaay trailer was launched before that and took the internet by storm. The audience and trade gave a huge thumbs up to the trailer and suddenly Shivaay became the hottest film in the trade. This left ADHM team in a worry and they decided to come up with something different. The recent result of Rustom vs Mohenjo Daro clash has made them extra careful.
Now the first teaser will be out on 30th August along with the title song of the film. The latest we hear that Ae Dil Hai Mushkil will be promoted as a musical romance film. The reports suggest that music is the biggest USP of the film and the makers will try to cash on it as far the opening is concerned.
The promo of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil may not make the impact which Shivaay did but its music will definitely click with the audience.

place the Roman Catholic Church in the same category as Islam: Both worship the virgin Mary, both stress that you must earn your salvation through good works and rituals, both have had leaders accused of child rape, and apparently now according to you they both love honor killings.
Quoteplace the Roman Catholic Church in the same category as Islam: Both worship the virgin Mary, both stress that you must earn your salvation through good works and rituals, both have had leaders accused of child rape, and apparently now according to you they both love honor killings. I just love how ignorant you are and how you epically self-own yourself all the time. Just give up man.This thread was pathetic desperation on your path. You know well that Islam forbids honor killings so why post something retarded that some guy did that happens to be MuslimImagine, a story about Muslim getting piss drunk in a club. You post that and go look at these drunk mozzlems they get drunk all the time they sleep around and go to clubs. Wait what? Just because some idiot does something does not make it a part of islam.I posted that article just to make you look like a fool, but no need! You make yourself look like a fool right on your own! So awesome!
place the Roman Catholic Church in the same category as Islam: Both worship the virgin Mary, both stress that you must earn your salvation through good works and rituals, both have had leaders accused of child rape, and apparently now according to you they both love honor killings.
Likewise you are doing yourself disservice by posting stories of village idiots who do stupid things that have far more to do with their retarded cultures than Islam. It's just desperation on your end.
LOLTook you long enough to respond to this thread. How long did it take you to find that?So it's okay that Muslims do this because Roman Catholics, according to you, do it too?I am not Roman Catholic, never have been, even though I was born and raised in a country where the population is 99% Roman Catholic. What was that again about my faith being a result of where I was born and raised? I place the Roman Catholic Church in the same category as Islam: Both worship the virgin Mary, both stress that you must earn your salvation through good works and rituals, both have had leaders accused of child rape, and apparently now according to you they both love honor killings. Thank you for proving my point.And I would not be surprised if the feet of the statue in Daniel 2, made out of iron and clay, are some kind of future alliance between the Roman Catholic Church and Islam to form some kind of oppressive, global theocracy.
Christianity:-Do whatever you want and you are saved you are 'gauranteed' heaven.-Profit from bashing islam and make money even, become popular
Yeah it is actually Or rather one of many flavours how you want to portray the convenience of Christianity as you shape what is God's word on your own.And so you seem to have a problem with catholics, in case you were unaware i also have people in the family woh are east orthodox christian, and after dwelling in catholicism i moved onto protestantism, certianly less idols. None the les still man made stuff. The fact that someone had to realize that the roman chuch/catholicism was corrupt and man made and had to make a new group as well that's man made. Just debate upon debate, no root sources.It is not on the basis of any divine decree what so ever, just the root cause of Paul's preaching and then ultimately the many debates of the 'church fathers' then the hundreds of groups that have spawned since that keep spawning to this day such as the many variations of 'gay churches'.So lets say for sake of argument we agree, then out of the 2 billion some christians you are saying over 1.2 billion catholics are not christians at all... YET... catholicism by very definition is to be the 'universal church' in other words the very mesage that supposedly paul wanted was to preach to everyone, gentiles, non-jews since judaism was a race based religion.Whether you like it or not, the split between the east and western chuch resulted in catholicism. You can ascribe yourself to newer groups that were created by newer movements all you want but it's all christianity. In the midst of it all christians pick and chose what they want to believe and the rules they believe or don't believe. THAT.. is why you'll never come to agreement even in debate as to what any christian believes. While in Islam we can go back to the quran and give a concise answer with context.Bottom line with the roman church? After ww2 and the tarnished image of christianity and the roman catholic church, they changed from the old "you're going to hell for whatever you do", to "Jesus loves you, Jesus accept him, lalala".Yes the old catholicism was brutal indeed with evertyhing you do on top of the fact you had to worship Jesus or else. The new school catholicism pretty much wants as many numbers as possible just say Jesus is God and you're saved.
yepso out of 2 some billion christians, 1.2 billion christians are not christians because they are catholics according to mos.
"according to mos".....no, I didn't say that. I'd suggest utilizing the quote feature...helps with reference and context. Christians are saved by grace through faith and not by their own works. The Christian then lives a life indwelt and guided by the Holy Spirit in all things.
So are Catholics Christians then or not Christians? 1.2 billion Catholics world wide. Largest percentage of Christians are Catholics really. If you say Catholics are not Christians then 1.2 billion are not Christian.
You're not giving a yes or no answer here. Are Catholics Christians?
So you're avoiding to answer the question because you want to say Catholics are not Christians but to not make it sound like that you are giving a long winding answer instead. If you want to call that a 'trap' when trying to ascertain the truth, then so be it. Your underlining statement implies it clearly enough for everyone that 1.2 billion catholics are not really christians as furthermore to the point you are distancing yourself from them. Unless you say yes they are Christians implicitly and leave it at that.So basically also to my earlier statement you are reaffirming what I said as well. You believe that through worshipping Jesus alone you are saved and it doesn't mater whether you do good or no good ('works', deeds). Which apparently Catholics encourage and deem important but you don't.That's where I go back to what I said and deem "christianity" as you so portray it as a religion of convinience. You are 'saved' and do as you wish and make your rules as you wish. Hence every christian being the way they are the way they shape themselves to be differing from one another and having diferent beliefs and arguments than one another, except of course in this case, worshipping Jesus as supposed implicit 'indifference'.
If a Catholic follows the Roman Catholic churches works-based salvation theology then they are not saved nor are they Christians.....salvation is attained through Christ and Christ alone.
Okay so 1.2 billion catholics are not christians. Only if they denounce 'good works' and only worship Jesus then they are good christians. Got it.Well that's too bad cause all these billion some catholics strongly and firmly believe they are in fact christians and the roman catholic church is none other than the roman church in the new age as time went on.Kind of goes by what I said earlier, the term catholic just means 'all embracing' literally.
lol I know a strict Catholic who tells me that protestants are not real Christians. MOS says Catholics are not Christians.I guess there are only .8 to 1.2 billion Christians in the world.
That's the way of religion LOL...."my religion is correct and you're religion is incorrect." That said, I don't prescribe to the generic concept of " organized religion"....I'm just a believer in Christ Jesus. If sects of the Catholic church adhere to salvation by grace through faith then I have no problem considering them believers in Christ....they're more Christian than Catholic at that point (IMHO). It's about scripture and what is represented therein....veer from that and you represent something different (that population that veers could be 10 or 1 billion). There are billion Muslims that don't agree with Catholicism or Christianity.I'm not here to bash the Catholic church, but I will call out the differences in theology and associated origins (as best I'm able to).

I have been thinking about importing some gemstones for a while now. If I do this, these stones would be arranged in a pattern with the Amber pieces so the Amber will still be beneficial for healing purposes while getting a dose of the gemstones at the same time. The stones would only replace a small fraction of the Amber pieces on a necklace.
The reason why I have been indecisive about these gemstones is because the gemstones are "cold". As we know, Amber is warm when it rests against the skin, whereas gemstones will remain cold. I'm unsure how this warm-cold combination would feel against the skin and how the Amber's succinic acid would activate as the jewelry shifts against the skin to the adjacent "cold" spot where the gemstones previously rested. So, I figured I will leave this decision up to my customers. Let me know what you think in the poll at the bottom of this post. Here are the available options:
African Jade (+ Green Amber)
This is a GREEN gemstone. African Jade is the stone of calm, balancing nerves and soothing the cardiac rhythm.
Physical healing: African Jade helps cleanse and detox the kidneys, spleen, and supra-adrenal glands.

The men's and women's swimming and diving teams were equally successful this past weekend, as both were victorious over Rowan University and Stevens Institute of Technology. With the two wins, the men's squad improved their overall record to 8-2, while the women's squad remains undefeated at a perfect 9-0.
The women's swimming and diving team was impressive, as they defeated Rowan by a score of 179-117. The win allowed the women to clinch their third NJAC title, while continuing one of the best seasons the women's program has had.
Senior Margaret Molloy had a spectacular meet, securing wins in two individual events. Molloy took first in the 1000-freestyle with a time of 10:44.57 and the 100-butterfly with a time of 1:00.37.
Junior Laura Pierce continued her impressive season by winning the 200-butterfly in 2:09.56. Freshman Ashley Conroy placed first in the 100-backstroke with a time of 1:00.78. Sophomore Jennifer Zavoda added to the flurry of blue ribbons, with a win in the 200-yard freestyle posting a time of 1:58.15.
Freshman Sabrina Lucchesi led the way on the diving board with wins in the one-meter and three-meter diving events. Lucchesi posted scores of 277.58 and 295.05 in her two victories.
The men's squad defeated Rowan by a score of 179-110, clinching their third straight NJAC title. The squad received outstanding play by the entire team, having 10 different swimmers winning individual events.
"We went into these meets with a lot of focus on the technical aspects of our races and getting excited as if these meets were a championship event since the regular season is over," senior Shawn Kircher said.
With that said, the meet against Rowan was all about the Lion's senior leadership. Pete Goldsmith captured the 1000-yard freestyle in a mere 10:03.20, while Tim Rauch chipped in by winning the 200-butterfly with a time of 2:03.41. Kircher tapped the wall first in the 200-freestyle posting a time of 1:44.04, and Tom Medvecky won the 100-yard fly finishing in 52.28. Finally, Joe Tseng exhibited dominance in the 200-IM, registering a winning time of 2:03.53.
On the diving board, junior TJ Burns placed first in the one-meter and three-meter diving events, fresh off his fifth NJAC Diver of the Week honor this season. Burns posted a score of 325.50 in the one-meter, and 333.53 in the three-meter.
"I swam well this meet, but I only did one individual event," Medvecky said. "The team as a whole, however, swam smart and confident."
On senior day against Stevens, the men dominated the pool in convincing fashion, winning 144-118.
Tseng and Kircher continued their success, as the pair led the Lions to victory. Tseng took down the backstroke events by winning the 100-yard in 53.29, and by winning the 200-yard in 1:55.78.
Kircher topped the field in the 100-freestyle in 47.24 and the 200-freestyle in 1:42.57.
"At this point in the season my race endurance has improved a lot, especially in my legs. We've done most of our physical training so now we're focusing on fine-tuning our races," Kircher said.
Other notable contributions belonged to Medvecky who won the 100-yard butterfly in 51.12, and sophomore Adam Schneider who won the 50-freestyle posting a time of 21.06. Freshman Phillip Hawley had a pair of second place finishes, as he finished behind Kircher in the 100-freestyle and Tseng in the 100-backstroke.
Likewise, the women defeated Stevens 146-116, completing the perfect 2010-11 regular season.
In the process, Pierce entered the school's record books by winning the 50-freestyle event in 23.60. Pierce didn't stop there, as she registered NCAA B-cut times in the 100-free style with a time of 51.75, and the 100-butterfly in 57.28.
Senior Katie Morgan celebrated Senior Day by posting a NCAA provisional time in the 200-yard breaststroke with a time of 2:24.28. Fellow senior Margaret Molloy took a trio of first-place finishes home. Molloy tasted victory in the 1000-freestyle (10:43.06), 500-freestyle (5:08.35), and 200-freestyle (1:55.00).
Sophomore Kayleigh Shangle shined throughout the meet, as she was victorious in the 100-freestyle, clocking in at 1:06.86.
With the conclusion of their regular seasons, the men's and women's squads will train hard the next three weeks in preparation for the Metropolitan Conference Championships at Rutgers University.
"I have improved in many different aspects, but the most important to me is the level of confidence," Medvecky said. "Going into a race with no doubt that you can win is a tough skill to master. I have not mastered it, but I have improved dramatically."

For awhile now, Amazon Prime was offering a $1 Instant Video credit if you selected the "No Rush" shipping option when placing your Amazon order. Well, it looks like that offer has changed and instead of receiving the Video credit you'll now earn a $5.99 credit towards a Prime Pantry Box order. Great for those that use Prime Pantry, not great for those that fully utilized the video credit!
Amazon Prime Pantry costs $5.99 shipping, so essentially this credit covers that cost so you can think of it as free shipping. And you can only use one credit per pantry order and unfortunately it is only available to those in the US (excluding Hawaii and Alaska). All credit earned expires May 31, 2015.
What exactly is "No Rush Shipping?" It is essentially an option where you will be quoted a longer ship time (typically 5-7 days) to receive the item you are purchasing. Typically with Amazon Prime you will receive the item within 2-days. The incentive is that if you select the no rush shipping option you'll receive something in return, i.e., the $5.99 credit towards Amazon Prime Pantry. This is a great option to use if a) you can benefit from the promotion, and b) if you do not need the order immediately.
What exactly is Prime Pantry? This option is only available for Amazon Prime members and allows you to purchase "lower-priced" grocery, household, and pet products in one order for a flat $5.99 fee. There is a maximum size and weight of your total order and is tracked as you add items to your cart. You can search for all eligible items in the Prime Pantry store.
Personally, I have never used Prime Pantry it, so I am not sure if these items are in fact cheaper or not, but I am definitely going to check it out. Feel free to comment below with your experience!

Suicide Prevention Services
NSWODGP has been commissioned by the Western NSW Primary Health Network to lead a consortium to develop and manage the coordination of Suicide Prevention Services in the North West of NSW. As consortium partners, Bourke Aboriginal Health Service and Walgett Aboriginal Medical service have been contracted to deliver the Indigenous suicide prevention component of this program within the overarching regional integrative suicide prevention program framework.
The proposed service model will focus upon both mainstream and Indigenous suicide prevention, with the aim to reduce deliberate self-harm associated with both fatal and non-fatal suicidal behaviour in the nominated service hubs of Walgett, Bourke and Cobar. The proposed service model is aligned to the Nine Step LifeSpan Systems Approach to Suicide Prevention initially developed on behalf of the NSW Mental Health Commission by the NHMRC Centre for Research Excellence in Suicide Prevention (CRESP) and Black Dog Institute.
Consistent with the Lifespan priority assessments and research evaluation, the proposed suicide prevention framework will place a primary focus and resources on GP capacity building, access to mental health therapies. gatekeeper training, after care and Schools programs. Each suicide prevention service system will be integrated, involving the formation of mental health networks at each nominated hub, including representation from Aboriginal Health Workers, GPs, Aboriginal Medical Services, Western NSWLHD Mental Health, Drug and Alcohol, services, Community Mental Health team and community members. The proposed model will be designed to promote a systems wide service integration approach across multiple governance structures and providers in the region.
Suicide Prevention Services Care Coordinators will be appointed to each nominated hub to support the integration of service delivery for clients at risk of suicide, develop appropriate education and training resources for the school, gatekeeper and frontline staff training, community campaigns and communication activities. Suicide Prevention Services Care Coordinators will be engaged and located at each partner service, including the NSWODGP Cobar Primary Health Care Centre, Walgett and Bourke Aboriginal Medical Services to ensure responsiveness of each service to the specified mainstream and Indigenous suicide prevention strategy.

For a winning season this year, make sure the RV is camp-ready by doing a thorough inspection and cleaning
Now that spring is almost here, preparing your RV for travel and performing necessary — and preventive — maintenance will pay dividends all year long.
See Related Story: Winter RV Prep
For those who stored their RV under a cover during the winter, the first step, obviously, is removing it. RV covers are expensive, so try to do this on a dry day. If the cover is damp, let it dry in the sun before storing it. If the cover is damaged, most manufacturers have patch kits that can be used to make repairs.
This is a good time for a thorough examination and cleaning of the RV roof. Make sure there hasn't been any damage during storage. Check the seals for signs of wear and deterioration, and reseal as needed. Be sure to use the correct sealant for the type and brand of roof. Several good rubber-roof cleaners and treatments on the market make this chore easier and more effective, including products from Dicor, Protect-All and Thetford.
If you have a fiberglass or aluminum roof, wash it and wax it, as you would the sides of the trailer. Waxing is a bit of a job, but you can make a family project out of it — just be sure to let your helpers know which surfaces not to wax, such as plastic (fenders), diamond plate and so on. The commercial one-step wash-and-wax concentrates don't replace a good hand waxing, which deep-cleans the surface and helps keep RVs looking new for years, but they work well for maintaining wax on the surface throughout the season.
Seals on the sides of the RV should be examined for gaps and wear, and repaired as needed. Again, try to match the sealant used on the RV from the factory. Sealing around doors and windows can be done with a good window-and-door caulk such as GE Silicone II and acrylic sealants like those from Geocel and Sika. Follow the instructions carefully. Consider using a tooling fluid (soapy water in a spray bottle) to make the caulk beads look professional. To do this, once you have applied a bead from the caulk gun, lightly spray (fog) the bead and the surrounding area with the tooling fluid, then use a caulk tool to remove the excess. This way, the caulk sticks where it is supposed to and is easily removed where it is not.
Open all the exterior compartments and check for signs of leaks and rodents or other pests, and deal with any issues. Spring is a great time to empty out the exterior compartments, and clean and rearrange things for the season.
Tires and running gear are what keep RVs on the road, and careful examination and service are essential. Check the tires for proper inflation, signs of damage or degradation, and to make sure the tread isn't wearing unevenly. Modern special trailer (ST) tires tend to have a shorter life than regular automotive tires, lasting only three to five years in some cases, according to some industry experts and RVers, so check the date of manufacture. This is especially important for off-brand tires that are manufactured in China.
If the tires are timing out or need replacing for other reasons, new tires should be the same size, weight and speed rating as the originals, although you can move up in rating to give the tires a little more beef. Just remember that increasing tire ratings does not increase the gross vehicle weight rating of the trailer.
Brakes and bearings also require service. Most manufacturers have a recommended maintenance schedule. Dexter Axle, for example, recommends repacking bearings every 12 months or 12,000 miles. Brakes (if not automatically adjusting) should be adjusted every three months or 3,000 miles, and linings should be visually inspected every 12 months or 12,000 miles. This annual service should include inspecting the running gear, including suspension components, wiring and so on.
Take a good look at the suspension for signs of wear. If you have greaseable shackle bolts, give them a shot of grease to start the season. While you're underneath the RV, take a quick glance at the wiring for signs of snagging and to make sure the wires haven't become a midnight snack for rodents.
Many RVers remove the batteries in winter to protect them, and spring is a good time to inspect them and check for proper water level during reinstallation. It's also time to plug in the RV to 120-volt AC power so the batteries can charge. After inspecting the hookup wires for damage or wear and tear, be sure to spray battery sealant on the terminals to help deter corrosion. Hook the trailer's electrical connector to the tow vehicle, check the exterior DOT lights and replace any bulbs that are burned out. Don't forget to reseal around the light fixtures, if needed.
Do a visual inspection of the LP-gas hardware before turning on the system. Squirrels and other critters like the taste of rubber hoses and will chew on them. Look for cracks and other signs of wear, and check for leaks when you first pressurize the system. If you're not sure that the system is sound, have it tested by a certified RV technician or LP-gas professional.
Hot-Water System
Trailers with more basic water systems, which include a standard LP-gas water heater, should be dewinterized as follows, assuming that nontoxic antifreeze has been used to protect the plumbing. The goal is to prevent antifreeze from getting into the water-heater tank. Once antifreeze is in there, you'll be smelling and tasting it, and seeing foaming for a long time. It's harmless but annoying.
First, make sure the water-heater bypass is still in winterize mode. There are different types of bypass kits, so check the owner's manual or contact the manufacturer if you're not sure which kind you have or how to operate it. Next, hook up the freshwater supply to the trailer and turn it on. This will pressurize the system. Make sure to flush the system thoroughly for best results. This includes faucets, low-point drains, toilets, the washing machine and icemaker. Once clean water is flowing through all the faucets, and there are no leaks or other problems, it's time to move on to the water heater.
The outside drain plug is probably not installed in the tank after draining and winterizing. A good method is to reverse the bypass kit and let some freshwater flow out of the drain, then shut off the water and install the plug or anode rod back in the tank. This flushes out stale water and collected minerals from the bottom of the water-heater tank. You can also use one of the flush-out wand tools available from RV-accessory dealers.
Reinstall the drain plug, turn the water on and open the relief valve using the spring-loaded lever. When the water comes out, release it to close the valve. Check for flow through the hot-water system, then test-fire the water heater. If you have a three-valve bypass kit, make certain the middle valve is closed. RV-service centers get many calls about tepid water from the water heater, only to find out this valve was left in the open position.
Make certain to flow water from every discharge point, including outside showers and low-point drains. If the RV has washer/dryer prep but no washer, hook up a hose to each of these valves and flow water into a sink, the washer drain or outside the RV. Stale water and antifreeze can remain in these lines and taint the freshwater.
Dewinterizing an RV with a Truma tankless hot-water system takes less effort because there is no tank to flush. Just follow the procedure in the owner's manual for flushing the system. Once everything is buttoned up and water is flowing throughout the plumbing, the system can be test-fired.
Freshwater System
I am a stickler about keeping the freshwater as clean as possible. To do this, two things must happen. First, the incoming source of water must be filtered and clean, whether the water is coming from the city-water connection or the freshwater holding tank. Second, the water system must be sanitized at the beginning of the season.
There are a couple of ways to sanitize the system. The old-school way is to make a chlorine solution and run it through the water system. The other is to use a commercial RV water freshener available at Camping World and other RV-accessory suppliers.
The chlorine solution is simple, safe and works like a champ. Simply mix 1⁄4 cup of plain household bleach and 1 gallon of water. If your RV's water system is dirty (for instance, the hot water gives off a rotten-egg smell), you can increase the bleach to 1⁄2 cup per gallon of water. Add one gallon of solution to an empty, preferably flushed, freshwater tank for every 15 gallons of tank capacity. For example, if you have a 30-gallon tank, you would add 2 gallons of the chlorine mix.
Then fill the tank to the top, turn on the water pump and run the solution through the plumbing system until you can smell chlorine from each faucet. Allow the solution to sit in the system for at least four hours (one hour if using the 1⁄2-cup solution). Then drain the freshwater tank completely and flush the entire system with water. Draining the water-heater tank using the drain plug will speed things up a bit.
Flushing the system will remove most of the chlorine. Water-freshening solutions are available in liquid and tablet form to get the remainder out, if you wish, but the chlorine will dissipate quickly and is harmless after the system has been flushed.
Baking soda can also be used to remove the chlorine taste and smell. Simply empty a box of baking soda in a bucket of water, pour it in the tank, fill the tank with water and, again, run the solution through the system. Allow the baking soda to work overnight, drain the tank and flush with water. The plumbing system is now clean and sanitized for the season.
Inside the RV
To prep the RV's interior, start by checking for signs of rodents and removing any nests and debris left behind. This is a good time to see if you can find where the pests came in and seal these areas from the outside. Do a thorough cleaning of the RV, including inside and under cabinets, windows and so on.
Clean and check the operation of all appliances. If you have a gas range, lift the top to check for rodent debris, and clean thoroughly. Lining the area under the burners with aluminum foil is an easy way to help with cleaning; just cover the bottom, and do not cover any of the holes in the sides of the pan.
Make sure the refrigerator is clean and mildew-free. Clorox and similar commercial wipes are great for this. Power up the refrigerator and let it run for a day or two, switching power-source modes to make certain they function properly. If you have a residential refrigerator, there's nothing special to do; just clean it and turn it on.
Test the trailer's safety systems and check the LP-gas, carbon-monoxide and smoke detectors for expiration dates. Battery-powered detectors must get new batteries at the beginning of the season. Make sure the emergency exits operate properly.
Look at each fire extinguisher to make sure there is no damage, invert it for a few seconds, and test the valve by pushing in the small pressure-test plunger, if so equipped, or checking the gauge for proper pressure (follow the extinguisher's instructions). Then check the interior lights and test the various onboard gadgets.
Be sure to check the owner's packet for special instructions, especially if it's a higher-end or more technologically equipped RV. Always use caution when working on ladders or on the roof, and if you're uncomfortable with the height — or with any of the procedures outlined here — have a certified RV technician take care of it.
Lastly, when you hook up the RV to the tow vehicle, give the hitch equipment a thorough inspection. For trailers, this means checking the hitch, the ball, the seven-way connector and sway equipment.
For fifth-wheels, look at the hitch for proper lubrication and movement of all the parts. Check the kingpin for abnormal wear, cracks or bending, and apply grease. A lube disc placed over the kingpin will eliminate the need to grease the whole pad surface, but be sure to remove the disc when you drop off the trailer at an RV dealership or service center, as many of them use a forklift with a cup to move trailers around the lot, which will destroy the disc. Make sure the mounting system is secure, and follow the hitch manufacturer's directions for any special service and lubrication requirements for that model.
For truck campers, make sure each of the mounting eyebolts is secure. Check the tie-down system (turnbuckles, chain mounts, body and frame mounts) for wear, rust and operation, and clean up and lube as needed. Plug in the seven-way connector and check all the lights, just as you would with a trailer. Also, take a good look at the corner jacks and service them as needed. The owner's manual or manufacturer's website should provide some guidance.
Spending a day inspecting and servicing your RV at the beginning of the season will help make every trip a home run.

It's estimated that there are some five job openings available for every one programmer on the market. In a situation like that, it's important to know what kind of programmer you really want and to make sure he/she knows about your great opportunities among so many interesting others that are out there. Here are three tips for hiring programmers to help you assess and land the best technology and software talent possible.
Ask Programming Candidates the Right Questions
We can often get distracted with the technical side of hiring programmers, forgetting that at the end of the day, they are people too, and need to interact successfully with other people, sometimes non-programmers, to succeed at your company. Because of this, it's very important to make sure that any potential candidate is a good fit for your culture. Key questions include:
- When do you do your best work? Is this someone who wants office hours, nontraditional hours, or a combination of both?
- Where do you do your best work? Is this someone who normally works remotely or in-house? How does this mesh with your needs?
- How do you best communicate with fellow team members? How do you handle conflict on a team? Know the dynamic of the team the candidate is being hired into so you can give some insights into what the work environment will be like.
- What do you do when you're asked to do something you've never done before? Give an example. We know that "google" is a magic word, but we're looking for a deeper answer. What's their process of thinking and iteration?
- How do you feel about accepting leadership or management roles? While it's clear you probably don't need every programmer you hire to be management material, it's helpful to know at the outset how each of these candidates assesses themselves in these roles.
- Why do this? What makes you excited about programming? This indicates that you aren't just looking for a great coding mind, but someone who has a driving why. People who are passionate about programming often spread that passion to others.
- What are your unique skills and competencies? By knowing ahead of time what the strengths and weaknesses of your existing team are, you can use the answers to this question to great advantage to help you build a more complete and well-rounded team by picking the candidate who fills the gaps you have.
Assess Programming Projects Appropriately
Many hiring sites and platforms have defaulted to language assessments and tests in order to measure the skills of applicants, and while that's helpful to a certain extent, what makes more sense, if possible, is to assess using an audition project. This can be done looking forward and backward.
- Forward-looking: take a segment of work that your team is working on right now and ask the applicant to complete it. It shouldn't be too lengthy as to be unfair use of his/her labor, but it should be long enough to assess both accuracy and timing. Ask the team to critique the work and give feedback to the candidate. See how he/she takes constructive criticism.
- Backward-looking: describe an actual problem that you have faced and resolved some time ago and ask the candidate to solve it, answering with only the information you knew at the outset of the problem. The candidate should offer a solution that is the same or better than the solution you came up with, given access to similar information.
It's also important to assess the candidates' programming outside of a work environment. Do they work on open source software during free/off time? What do their personal software projects look like? How varied is the work in their portfolio? These larger pieces of information help give you a full-color image of your potential hire, not just bits and pieces of a mosaic.
Most importantly, are you being clear and detailed in what you expect from a potential new hire to the position? Greater detail allows candidates to assess whether this is truly a good fit for them as well, saving both of you time in the case that it isn't.
Make a Strong Offer
As noted above, there's no shortage of opportunities for great programmers, and while compensation is an important part of any offer, these candidates also many times really enjoy simply working on challenging technology initiatives. They don't want to have to deal with a bunch of bureaucracy, whether it's about accessing benefits or simply being able to chat with members and managers of the technical teams. Smaller firms can use a flatter structure to entice programmers who simply want to do challenging work at a company that values them. It's important not to complicate things.
A rising platform that makes this hiring process easier is Vocaworks. Built to connect employers directly with vetted, qualified programming and software talent, it gives hiring managers direct access to candidates who have been sourced from top tech institutions. It's one more tool you might consider as you search for the next programmer for your team. Good luck!

The company history and tradition
"Fabryka Plecaków" was founded in 1983 as a continuation of a family business dating back to 1920. Over the years, the company has gained its leading position on the market as a Polish manufacturer of backpacks, bags, briefcases, make-up bags, and more. We use a modern production base that is based on advanced technology. We specialize in manufacturing textile goods intended for broadly understood marketing strategies, serving both advertising agencies and other customers. We offer, among others, bags and advertising backpacks. The client's logo is put on our products using various techniques such as embroidery, screen printing, transfer, jacquard or sublimation printing.
Many years of experience, speed of operation and high production quality are our great strengths.
We use our knowledge and experience not only in advertisement. "Fabryka Plecaków" manufactures pouches and bags for the automotive industry, health services as well as for measuring and optical gear. Next to our rich assortment of products we are not afraid to take on new challenges, manufacturing products in individual designs. On the 15th of January 2010, the company changed its seat and name from "Paso Fabryka Sp.k" to "Fabryka Plecaków Sp.k".

Nothing in this article shall be held to apply to any sales conducted pursuant to statute or by order of any court to any person selling personal property at wholesale to dealers in such articles, to merchants having an established place of business within the Village or their employees for soliciting orders from customers and delivering the same, to farmers and truck gardeners, who themselves or through their employees vend, sell or dispose of products of their own farms and gardens, to any honorably discharged soldier, sailor or marine who has procured a license by the General Business Law of the State of New York, or to berrypickers who sell berries of their own picking. This article shall also not apply so as unlawfully to interfere with interstate commerce.
It shall be unlawful for any person, within the corporate limits of the Village of Saugerties, to act as a hawker, peddler or solicitor, as herein defined, without first having obtained and paid for, and having in force and effect, a license therefor.
Any person desiring to procure a license as herein provided shall file with the Village Clerk a written application upon a blank form prepared by the Village Clerk and furnished by the Village, and shall file at the same time satisfactory proof of good character. Such application shall give the number and kind of vehicles to be used by the applicant in carrying on the business for which the license is desired; the kind of goods, wares and merchandises he desires to sell or the kind of service he desires to sell or the kind of service he desires to perform; the method of distribution; the name, address and age of the applicant; the name and address of the person, firm or corporation he represents; the length of time the applicant desires the license for; and such other information as may be required by the Village Clerk. Such application shall be accompanied by a certificate from the sealer of weights and measures certifying that all weights and measuring devices to be used by the applicant have been examined and approved.
An application for a license shall also be accompanied by a bond to the Village of Saugerties approved as to form and surety by the Village Attorney or the Mayor of the Village in the penal sum of $250 with sufficient surety or sureties or sufficient collateral security, conditioned for the due observance during the time of the license of any and all ordinances which are now in force or may be hereafter adopted by the Board of Trustees respecting hawking, peddling and soliciting. In the case of solicitors who demand, accept or receive payments or deposits of money in advance of final delivery, such bond shall be further conditioned for making final delivery of goods, wares or merchandise ordered or service to be performed in accordance with the terms of such order, or failing therein, that the advance payment on such be refunded.

All licenses shall be issued from a properly bound book with proper reference stubs kept for that purpose, numbered in the order in which they are issued, and shall state clearly the kind of vehicle to be used, the kind of goods, wares and merchandise to be sold or service to be rendered, the number of his license plate, the dates of issuance and expiration of the license, the fee paid and the name and address of the licensee. Such licenses shall automatically expire on January 1 following the date of issuance of such licenses, but such licenses may specifically state and provide for an earlier expiration date.
Such licenses shall include the right to use only one vehicle in carrying on the business for which the person is licensed.
No license shall be granted to a person under 21 years of age.
No applicant to whom a license has been refused or who has had a license which has been revoked shall make further application until a period of at least six months shall have elapsed since the last previous rejection.
Every licensee shall carry the license with him and shall exhibit the same upon demand.
The rate of license and the license fee for the above pursuits is hereby fixed at a rate as set from time to time by resolution of the Board of Trustees.[1]
Any licensee using a motor vehicle may employ two persons and no more to assist in selling and delivering the wares, but such persons shall so act only while accompanying a licensed peddler, hawker or solicitor.
The vehicle kept or used by a licensee in the exercise of his license shall be marked on both sides with the number corresponding to the number on his license, and the words "Licensed Vendor" in plain letters and figures at least two inches in length and of such color as to be plainly read at a distance of at least 10 feet.

The Village Clerk may, at any time, for a violation of this article or any other ordinance, or any law, revoke any license. When a license shall be revoked, no refund of any unearned portion of the license fee shall be made. Notice of such revocation and the reason or reasons therefor in writing shall be served by the Village Clerk upon the person named in the application or by mailing the same to the address given in the application, and upon filing a copy of such notice with the Village Clerk.
A licensed huckster, peddler or solicitor shall:
Not falsely or fraudulently misrepresent the quantity, character or quality of any article offered for sale; nor offer for sale any unwholesome, tainted or diseased provisions or merchandise.
Keep the vehicles and receptacles used by him in a clean and sanitary condition, and the food stuffs and edibles offered for sale well covered and protected from dirt, dust and insects.
Not blow a horn, ring a bell or use any other noisy device to attract public attention to his wares, or shout or cry out his wares.

Not permit any vehicle used by him to stop or remain on any crosswalk.
Not create or maintain any booth or stand, or place any barrels, boxes, crates or other obstructions upon any street or public place for the purpose of selling or exposing for sale any goods, wares or merchandise.
All orders taken by licensed solicitors who demand, accept or receive payment or deposits of money in advance of final delivery, shall be in writing, in duplicate, stating terms thereof and the amount paid in advance, and one copy shall be given to the purchaser at the time the deposit of money is paid to the solicitor.
It shall be the duty of the Village Clerk to keep a record of all applications and all licenses granted under the provisions of this article, giving the number and date of each license, the name and residence of the person licensed, the amount of the license fee paid and also the date of revocation of all licenses revoked.
Any person who himself or by his clerk, agent or employee, shall act as a hawker, peddler or solicitor as herein defined, without a license, or shall violate any of the provisions of this article or who, having had his license revoked, shall continue to act as a hawker, peddler or solicitor, shall, upon conviction, be punished by a fine of not less than $250 or be imprisoned for a term not exceeding 15 days or both, and each day on which such violation continues shall constitute a separate offense.

No person, firm or corporation without first having obtained a license therefor, as provided in this article, shall peddle goods, wares or merchandise in any public street, avenue, sidewalk, lane, alley or in any public place in the Village of Saugerties, or sell or offer for sale any goods, wares or merchandise in the open or from any booth or stand in any public street, avenue, sidewalk, lane, alley or in any public place in said Village; provided, however, that this section shall not apply to wholesale salesmen selling goods, wares or merchandise exclusively to merchants or dealers, or to the peddling of meats, fish, fruit or farm produce, or to the sale by public officers by order of any court of competent jurisdiction, or for the sale of meats, fish, fruit and farm produce in any public market now or hereafter authorized or established by the Board of Trustees of the Village.

Happy New Year 2015!
Hope you greeted the new year with a bang. I went to a dressup house party and we danced until the sun came up. May the new year bring you and your loved ones many bests.
I have several personal projects planned for the new year, namely:
- cooking more, for myself and friends
- exercising more, in preparation of a semi marathon in April and beyond
- dress up more, because good presentation is always preferred
Many others on the list, but these are the three huge items right up the top. What are on your lists?
