Common Orthodontic Issues
Crowding of the teeth
Patient started treatment at age 11 and wore braces for 26 months. He loves his new smile.
Open bite - Front teeth don't touch
Patient sucked her thumb as a young child. She started treatment at age 13. She had braces and a special appliance — called a crib — to retrain the tongue, for 28 months. Now she can bite the lettuce out of a sandwich.
Deep overbite - Lower front teeth bite into palate
This adult patient, age 25, required braces and jaw surgery to correct his severe overbite, with treatment taking two years. His problem could have been corrected without surgery if he had been treated before he was a teenager.
Missing lateral incisors
This patient's lateral incisors were congenitally missing. She had braces for 20 months to move the teeth into their correct positions, then the missing teeth were replaced with bonded "Maryland" bridges.
Underbite - Lower front teeth in front of upper teeth
Patient's underbite was causing her jaw joint discomfort and excessive wear patterns on her teeth. After about 30 months of treatment starting at age 32, she now finds smiling and chewing much easier.
Spacing of teeth
Patient was bothered by the spaces between his teeth. Braces closed the spaces and gave him an ideal bite in 24 months. Special glued-in retainers help keep the spaces closed.
Overjet - Protruding front teeth
At age ten, patient had a big overjet with the top teeth protruding beyond the bottom. She had two phases of treatment. The first helped her jaws to grow more harmoniously and the second aligned her teeth and bite. At age 13, she was proudly displaying her new smile.
Non-braces treatment
Sometimes braces are not needed to get noticeable improvements in tooth alignment. This patient was first seen at age seven for crowding of the lower permanent teeth. A procedure was performed to reduce the width of the adjacent baby teeth and the permanent incisors aligned on their own in nine months.
Patient's parents were concerned about both aesthetics and the health of the erupting permanent teeth when they brought him to the orthodontist at age eight. The lower front teeth were crowded and touching the palate, and the upper front teeth were extremely displaced from their normal positions. After 12 months of Phase-One treatment with an expander and partial braces, patient's appearance and dental function were vastly improved.
What Patients Are Saying
"My son has had his braces on for the past 3+ years, and he just recently got them taken off. Through the years the staff and Dr. Jones have always been remarkable! Dr. Jones was always walking around with a smile and the aura around him is amazing! I can't express enough how helpful, pleasant and warm everyone is."
~ Carolina G.
" I had absolutely awful teeth before I came here. I had braces here for two years and a couple months. Even with my financial troubles, they found a way to make it easy and affordable. Rusty Jones is a great doctor and he makes me feel super comfortable. My teeth look great now and I am so happy with them. I would recommend this office to anyone."
~ Emma L.
"Every time I went in, I received great customer service from the staff. The staff was so nice and always smiling. I always felt comfortable asking questions, and they always work with my schedule to give the best time for my appointments... I highly recommend Rusty Jones Orthodontics to friends and family. If you need braces, this is the place to come and get the great smile you have been wanting to have."

250,000 Condoms Deployed For HIV Awareness, Prevention
Friday, February 16, 2007
It comes in a purple and mustard-yellow package, with a message aimed squarely at anyone having sex in the nation's capital, and today the city will dispense 250,000 of these DC-branded condoms during a massive giveaway.
In a single morning, the kickoff distribution to groups working on the front line of HIV/AIDS will almost equal the number of condoms supplied by the D.C. Health Department in 2005 and 2006 combined. The agency wants to hand out 1 million by year's end, making the small package the most visible element of the District's efforts to reverse epidemic levels of the virus.
"It's overdue -- tangible proof we're doing something good for public health," said Gregg A. Pane, director of the department,
With condoms one of the most effective ways of preventing the spread of HIV, Pane hopes that they will be placed prominently and accessibly not only in government buildings, health clinics and social service agencies but also in barbershops, nightclubs, convenience stores and other locations.
"We want to go places we haven't gone before," Pane said.
Officials had planned to introduce the new design on Valentine's Day, which, because of its amorous overtones, doubles as National Condom Day. And if internal complications and bad weather had not delayed the launch, the District would have shared the distinction of having the first municipally authorized protection in the country.
New York City alone claimed that distinction Wednesday, debuting a snazzy black condom wrapper with lettering like that used by the subway system. As many as 18 million are expected to be distributed in the city's five boroughs this year.
Compared with New York's catchy approach, including "We've got you covered," the District slogan, "Coming together to stop HIV in DC," seems clunky. And the slogan, borrowed from the department's HIV testing campaign last summer, has in this context a double entendre that officials said was not intended.
But the local package, printed in English and Spanish, has its defenders. "The good news is, it does have 'stop HIV' on it. It does say DC. It does have important information," said Walter Smith, whose organization, the DC Appleseed Center for Law and Justice, has issued several critical evaluations of the city's efforts to combat HIV/AIDS. Smith called today's distribution "a good first step," though he said the real test will be getting the condoms to the most at-risk populations.
"It's going to take some time to fine-tune the system to get to that," he added.
The first quarter-million condoms will go to a variety of community providers. Nearly half will be delivered to the Life Guard project, which in two months passed out 7,000 free condoms through a 24-hour laundromat, a late-night pizza joint and a fast-food restaurant east of the Anacostia River.
Early on, health officials largely dismissed the alliance of groups behind the project. They have had such a change of heart that today's announcement will be at that same SpinCycle Coin Laundry. "I think they understand the power of the community," said David Johnson, who has scouted Life Guard drop sites in Wards 7 and 8. "We're really looking for places to be in the city."
More than a dozen beauty salons and barbershops along the lower Georgia Avenue corridor will have plenty of condoms available to customers in coming months, thanks to the tens of thousands that Us Helping Us will receive today from the city. The nonprofit organization also will offer them in black gay clubs and neighborhood haunts already visited as part of its HIV outreach program.
Ron Simmons, Us Helping Us executive director, wonders whether people will treat the wrapper as a novelty -- and not use its contents. "The city is going to have to do a really good social marketing campaign," he said yesterday, "so people will become accustomed to the colors and packaging and realize these are reliable condoms."
At HIPS, which helps sex workers in the city, Executive Director Cyndee Clay offered a different thought.
"Packaging is very important in normalizing condom use, in showing that condoms are something everyone should carry, that everyone can carry," she said. "But all the cool packaging in the world is not necessarily going to make up for the conversation."
This first batch of condoms, made in China, expire in 2011.

Anyways, back to my birthday, I've always been one to get super excited for my birthday, because no matter what, I'm always happy on my birthday! And being happy is super important. Except this year I turn 23 and I don't know how I feel about that. That number just seems gross... and old... Can I be 22 for another year? Or even just skip to 24? There's just something weird about 23...
So since it's one month till my birthday, and my husband says I can no officially start talking about it (even though I've been talking about it for over a month) I am going to make my birthday wishlist!! Please don't think of me as selfish, I understand I am NOT going to get all these things and I don't care. It's just a guideline for anyone buying me birthday gifts (like my readers, you're more than welcome to buy my gifts, wink wink (I'm totally kidding, promise)).
- Yours Truly Album by Ariana Grande
- This one I need. Honestly need. And CDs aren't that expensive. I've been hinting at this to my husband since it came out so if he doesn't get it for me, there may be trouble.
- Beta Fish
- I've been talking about this since forever. I really want fish. I think technically they aren't allowed in our apartment, but I really want them!! I want two, a boy and a girl named Julio and Sassy. Yep. I've thought a lot about this.
- Winter hats and gloves
- Because apparently I need them... I'm still so angry. I really hope that aren't truly lost and they will turn up somewhere soon, because they were seriously so cute and I loved them all!
- Clothing
- My mom always knows I want new clothes anytime she gives me gifts. You know, Pinterest is fantastic because my mom can just look on there and see what types of things I want. It's genius really.
- iTunes Money
- I like having actual CDs, but some music artists I don't really like, I just want one song from them. So I love iTunes for that! Although my iPod is currently full...
- iPod
- I know I won't get this, and I do love my current iPod, but it would be really nice to be able to put more music on my iPod, but I can't. It's annoying. Actually, what I really want is an iPhone, but I know that's not happening to the point where it's not even worth it to put it on this list.
- Sewing Machine
- Weird right? But I really want one to do some of my Pinterest things. I know I won't get it, but I just want someone to be aware that I want one.
Please don't think of me as selfish. Honestly, I'd be fine just going out for a nice dinner with my family for my birthday. I don't need this stuff. It's just a wishlist. :)

Defense Of Marriage Act Ruling: Gay Married Couples Look To Supreme Court Next
BOSTON — Fresh from a favorable ruling by a federal appeals court, Dorene Bowe-Shulman can't wait for the U.S. Supreme Court to weigh in on whether same-sex married couples should get the same federal benefits as heterosexual couples.
"I really look forward to the next step," said Bowe-Shulman, one of 17 people from Massachusetts who sued to challenge the constitutionality of the federal Defense of Marriage Act.
On Thursday, the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals found that the law's denial of an array of federal benefits to same-sex couples is unconstitutional, affirming a ruling by a federal judge in 2010. Opponents and supporters of gay marriage said the case is now almost certainly headed to the Supreme Court.
Bowe-Shulman, 46, said she wants the case to go before the Supreme Court because it will put a national spotlight on the law and "expose the injustice of DOMA to more people."
Bowe-Shulman said she and her wife pay about $100 more in taxes each month because she is taxed as part of her wife's health insurance.
"The harm that DOMA has done hasn't been so apparent to the general public," she said.
In a unanimous ruling, a three-judge panel of the 1st Circuit found that the 1996 law deprives gay couples of the rights and privileges granted to heterosexual couples.
The court did not rule on another provision of the law that says states without same-sex marriage cannot be forced to recognize gay unions performed in states where it is legal. The court also was not asked to address whether gay couples have a constitutional right to marry.
The law was passed a time when it appeared Hawaii would legalize gay marriage. Since then, many states have instituted their own bans on gay marriage, while eight states have approved it, led by Massachusetts in 2004 and continuing with Connecticut, New York, Iowa, New Hampshire, Vermont, Maryland, Washington state and the District of Columbia. Maryland and Washington's laws are not yet in effect and may be subject to referendums.

According to the news, a lady chose to have a baby for her daughter and became her grandchild's surrogate mother. It is very admirable, I think, to be willing to give your love to a family so completely that one is willing to give life to a child for another person. One of my students did that for her sister because her sister would never be able to have a child. The women were very close and both loved the child deeply. Other young women I have met were willing to give their babies up for adoption because they were too young or too involved in the messes life sometimes hands us to be able to raise a child.
Still, this grandmother was 61 years old! As I sit here thinking about the many pregnant women who walk the halls of our schools, I see in my mind's eye young women holding their backs and rubbing that protrusion that sticks out like a # 2 washtub. Then I think about a woman who may already have arthritic problems, glasses, maybe an upper plate, and swelling in her hands and feet. Put a nine month pregnancy on top of that and it sounds like sheer madness!
Of course, she won't have to worry about getting up for those 2 a.m. feedings and the umpteen diapers that will need to be changed in the next few years. It's probably a good thing that she won't be responsible for caring for the child. It's hard to imagine putting the baby down somewhere and trying to remember where!
It makes me wonder if the grandmother has a husband at home. Sitting here imagining what Fang would think if he had to sleep with a pregnant woman at our age…. Big evil grin! And SO glad that it would be impossible!

If only the update system unified across devices, maybe then we can feel excited about this news. My G2 here suffers bluetooth bug, drain battery twice as normal. Maybe next year we got 4.4.3? Slow, very slow..
AnonD-92238, 30 Mar 2014Fixes comes for iOS and long awaited features comes for WP after a whole year and nobody bats ... moreI wonder from so many years wat is google updating in android like from 2.2 2.3 4.0 4.1 then 4.1.1 then 4.1.2 then 4.2 then 4.2.1 then 4.2.2 then 4.3 then 4.4 then 4.4.1 then 4.4.2 then 4.4.3 hmmm wat they r updating still no bug fixes how many versions google need to make android stable lolzz and ppl r just waiting updates from 4.2.1 to 4.2.2 lolzz u buy a android then u starts worrying everyday about updates lolz then u got update then u worried about bug fixes lolz Symbian was way ahead lolz
App shortcuts sometimes got removed from launcher after update!!! Sometimes??? - ALWAYS. Good news that they fixing it!
Even hiding applications in application drawer has to be incorporated
AnonD-48549, 29 Mar 2014Wow, so many bugs! Let`s call it Lagdroid or Bugdroid, it would be more properly than Android.... moreJust take a look at this:
title itself says how stable is the android
Even hiding applications in application drawer has to be incorporated
Fixes comes for iOS and long awaited features comes for WP after a whole year and nobody bats an eye. Fixes comes for android and everyone looses their mind.
because iOS and WP loves to name their fixes and features as a standalone OS.
I am most concerned with following bugs:
Frequent data connection dropout fix
Wi-Fi auto-connect fix
Missed call LED fix
App shortcuts security fix
Hope there are fixed in this release and not pushed to next release and also an update is always refreshing :)
AnonD-249116, 29 Mar 2014I have realized that other companies except Google don't release these updates to their phones... moreIndeed you're correct, that's Android. :)
443 bugs fix long overdue .. google make sure next time -test before release ..
AnonD-209094, 30 Mar 2014I agree that Android is usually stable and reliable, my Xperia Z was excellent and never faile... moreFair enough. To each, his own.
Anonymous, 29 Mar 2014So many bugs and problems to be fixed. This update cannot come soon enough. But it's still 6... moreYou say the updates are 6-8 months away for non nexus users as if many/any of them are using 4.4.2 yet lol
FreezeGame, 29 Mar 2014"Try other OS, Windows and iOS and Nokia feature never crash or glich." A recent ... moreI agree that Android is usually stable and reliable, my Xperia Z was excellent and never failed me, and being a true multitasking OS Android has some serious advantage over iOS and WP. But people seem to forget about the other great multitasking OS, and that is BB10, which is what i am using now and i honestly think this is better than android, feels more efficient, and my android apps work in bb10.2 so there simply are no disadvantages, BB10 is like winning the lotto twice. Now BB just get their things in order and launch a Full HD quadcore phone with 3GB RAM and 32GB storage. Full HD is the only thing i really miss after gong to BB Z10, the 355 PPI is excellent but sometimes i notice its not as good as 441. Doubt i ever go back to Android, BB10 has all the Android app support i will ever need.
I found the final solution for the bugs and non-elegant features/looks of KitKat. Its called BB10.2 and it just keep on working and working, also more than 80% of Android apps will be working. With BB10.2 i have the advantages of android without any of the disadvantages.

How useless – moribund – is the Church of England!
I have just been listening to two vicars on the Today programme talking about the impact of the St Paul's protest.
One of them told us how much he loves the Church of England; the other valued his 'ministry'. They talked about the role the Church could play in mending our fractured society, and in helping the protestors to articulate their message. One of them even suggested opening St Paul's as a homeless shelter.
There was just one thing, however, that neither of them managed to say during the entire interview.
What Would Jesus Do?
A protestor's banner hurls the question: 'What Would Jesus Do?' It is of course, a semi-rhetorical question. The protestor isn't opening a debate, he is making an accusation. Jesus, he is quite sure, would be there amongst the protestors, fighting for social justice.
But would He? Jesus certainly said some pretty damning things about wealth. It is easier, he warned us, for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. And on another occasion he told a good and godly man that he lacked one thing – 'Go, sell all that you have, and come, follow Me.'
On the other hand, there is no doubt that he once told aid workers that 'the poor will always be with you', and that they needed to concentrate rather on their time with Him. And – in a statement which the St Paul's protestors would find horrific – he once famously told anti-imperialist protestors to 'render unto Caesar what is Caesar's'.
In short, Jesus' message on wealth was neither necessarily for it nor against it, but that it was essentially a distraction from what REALLY mattered, which was 'the Kingdom of Heaven' … a phrase which we would probably nowadays render as: 'your relationship with God'.
What would Jesus have done? He would certainly have been out and about with the protestors, but He would have been telling them to get themselves right with God, to seek God's salvation, to be 'born again of the spirit'…
The Failure of the Church of England
So just how crushingly disappointing is it that our primary state-sponsored religious organisation has so utterly failed to convey ANY religious message during this event? When presented with the perfect media opportunity to demonstrate the relevance of the Christian GOD in our society, the Church has flunked. No Christian music blaring from loudspeakers, no teams of Billy Grahams flooding the camp, no round-the-clock soapbox preachers banging home the message of salvation.
Instead, a public acknowledgement of respect for the different religious persuasions of the protestors, and an uncomfortable and sterile debate about how to address the inequalities in society.
Faced with a disorganised and generally non-threatening protest, the Church of England has demonstrated to the world that it really has no confidence whatsoever in the religious message it was formed to purvey.
Rather, admittedly with an unexpected shudder, the Church of England has decided that it will be safer to come down on the side of Capitalism, and it has cooperated with the City of London Corporation to clear the site. Out of site, out of mind, eh?
If I were being reflective, I would see in the paralysis of the Church of England a symptom of a general loss of confidence in our Western moral and religious values. Christianity still has a formal place in our society, but in practical terms our religion nowadays is demand-led Capitalism, and the St Paul's protestors are the heretics.
What is the ultimate disappointment of the Church of England is not that it has failed to come out and support the protestors. It surely never could – God is the God of the rich just as much as He is of the poor.
What is devastatingly disappointing is that, given an unparalleled opportunity to reassert the primacy of God, the religious establishment has decided that protecting its building is more important than proclaiming its faith.

Since deciding on Atkins' plan to build Ravn, there's been a lot of hand wringing over the keel. Both Valgerda and Kari 2 plans showed keels significantly deeper than the original Hardanger faerings. The designers added more than a foot to the traditional 4-inch keel of the boats they were designed after.
Atkins wrote: "Because of their lack of initial stability, I designed a new keel - the original boats had a long, shallow keel approximately 4 inches deep. When loaded, they had sufficient lateral plane to hold the little craft on the wind.... I prepared the rather shoal fin keel, fitted with lead ballast of approximately 106 pounds, because of her lack of initial stability and the unlikelihood of her carrying a cargo of fish."
On Kari 2, the designer wrote: "The hull is a close resemblance of the original but we have given her a deeper keel to enhance her windward performance."
I like good windward performance as much as the next guy, but I felt I needed shallow draft more. Neither Valgerda or Kari 2 are deep-draft vessels by any means, but even their modest 18-inch draft seemed too much.
In the end I decided to split the difference. I liked Atkins reasoning about faerings, being work boats, were made to carry loads. So I decided to add a 100-pound chunk of lead to the keel. My keel would be made of purple heart wood, which is denser and heavier than the oak specified by Atkins. It is commonly available and usually cheaper than white oak and glues well with epoxy. It is also rot proof, a very nice thing in a boat. I like to think that Atkins would have specified it had it been as common in the 1950s as it is now. I decided to lengthen the keel and carry it farther astern to increase the lateral resistance and directional stability.
I thought of Billy Atkin's advice: "Now do not be tempted to pull the ends out, raise the sheer heights, swoop up the bow or stern, or do the many things a boat plan always impels one to do. Just put this... boat together and see how well she performs." I bowed my head and started ripping 12-foot purple heart planks into 2-inch wide lengths for the keel.

A boy is lucky that a driver was travelling more than 15km/h below the speed limit after being hit by a van on Saturday in England.
David Dally-Crabb was playing on the road when he was knocked down by the van on Station Road, Keadby, in central England.
He had reached underneath a parked van near a bus stop to retrieve his ball, before walking back onto the road and being knocked down to the ground by the oncoming vehicle.
CCTV footage shows the young boy get up immediately after being struck.
His mother, Emma Crabb, said her son was "lucky" he only walked away with bruises, grazes and a sprained shoulder.
"If it had been a few seconds earlier he would have been right in front of the van," Mrs Crabb told the Scunthorpe Telegraph.
"When I got home from the hospital and saw the CCTV I felt sick even though I knew David was okay. It was so scary."
She added the " driver was amazing" and it was lucky he was travelling at 32km/h and not the 48km/h speed limit.
"The van driver came to my house and was the one who rang an ambulance. The whole time we were in hospital he was in contact with my husband making sure David was okay," Mrs Crabb said.
Mrs Crabb is now circulating a petition and lobbying her local MP to have a crossing installed.

My name is Danny. I don't care who knows who I am. I have been in recovery since July 26, 1994. I am a recovering heroin addict.
The issue with kids these days is that they think it's cool to get high on dope. It's all fun and games in the beginning, but that doesn't last for long. You go from doing it on the weekends to doing it no more than two days in a row. You see, once you hit that third day, you're done. Now you have a physical addiction on top of your already physiological addiction. You go from sniffing to shooting. You go from wearing t-shirts on a hot summer day to long sleeved shirts to cover the track marks and the abscesses in your arms. Then, when your arms are shot, you go to your hands. Unless you want to wear gloves, there is no hiding the fact that you're a junkie. Are we having fun now? Holding down a job is next to impossible. You have stolen everything from your family. Now, it's about robbing stores and scamming to get high. You certainly don't have money for a car. So you hop on buses and subway cars that you don't pay to get on. Eventually, you're homeless or in jail or dead.
I was homeless. Even though you do get pinched for possession, I was lucky to just do a few days in jail. Back then in Brooklyn it was a disorderly conduct ticket: a $100 fine, done. These days, not so lucky.
Nothing is worse than being dope sick. You would rather be dead. You can't move and you're too sick to cop. Let's also not forget that, God forbid, your works clog or the needle breaks off. Then, you're fucked. Or if you miss your last bag. You will be on you knees crying.
So, to sum this up, heroin sucks! All it takes is that one sniff, and you're done. Please try to think before you get started. There is no happy ending.

So, I've been totally free to enjoy the contents. And there is a lot in there too.
As well as the plastic Cryx Battlegroup, you get, in metal, a Skarlock thrall, a Warwitch Siren, and a Necrosurgeon and Stitch Thralls. I also got a boxed set of five Mechanithralls and two more blister packs, each with two more metal Mechanithralls. Although that and a really nicely put together softback copy of Warmachine Prime MKII.
As I really have no idea what use the metal mini's will actually be in a Cryx army yet, I have been able to indulge my phobia of metal mini's and dived straight into the plastic starter set.
In comparison to GW product, assembly is generally easier and faster with PP's plastics. Each model-type comes in its own plastic baggie, already clipped from the sprues. There is a little cleanup necessary before you can begin gluing though. Some of this is to file down some fairly obvious marks where pieces appear to have been yanked off their sprue, rather than carefully clipped. There is also more flash around some of the smaller details, teeth, claws and such, than I am used to seeing on comparable GW models. But this is easy to trim off and, considering the fact the parts come bagged and ready-clipped, the PP models are easier and quicker to put together than a GW model.
|Apparently other miniatures games are available.
That said, I have had some problems this evening making glue, well, glue things together. The plastic PP uses is different to GW's. It feels more like a traditional toy manufacturer's plastic, its glossy, almost as if it needs to be washed before assembly. I used GW's thin plastic glue, Humbrol Poly Cement, and Loctite Powerflex superglue. The latter was used largely out of frustration when certain parts just didn't seem to want to stay stuck together using the other glues. The plastic glues do seem to work - eventually - but, for the jaws of the Bonejacks and the blades on Deneghra's back in particular, sometimes I just needed something guaranteed to stick hard and fast.
|Anybody knocks this guys jaw off, I knock your jaw off
|It kinda looks like they're taking a leak down there...
All in all, a nice evening's work to put together the beginnings of my Cryx force. Now I just have to decide whether I should have sprung for the P3 paint set to go with them when I was at the Wayland warehouse yesterday....

South African bank Investec, which has a weighty presence in the City, has become the latest institution to appoint co-chief executives as its "founding members" prepare to hand over to the next generation.
Fani Titi, former non-executive director and chairman of Investec, and Hendrik du Toit, an executive director and the founding chief executive of the bank's asset management branch, will take over the CEO role at the start of April. They will become official co-CEOs in October.

They will be filling the shoes of chief executive Stephen Koseff, managing director Bernard Kantor and risk and finance director Glynn Burger, who have led the group for almost 40 years.
Koseff and Kantor will step down this October, while Burger will retire in March 2019.
"When we joined Investec almost 40 years ago we aspired to develop a leading financial services group focused on our clients' needs," said Koseff.
"We have worked with most of our senior management team for over 20 years and we are very proud of what we have accomplished as a team. The group is well placed to take advantage of the opportunities that lie ahead and we know that under the new executive leadership team Investec will continue to go from strength to strength."

Kim McFarland, who has been chief operating officer and chief financial officer of Investec Asset Management since December 1993, will take over as group finance director. Ciaran Whelan will take Burger's risk role.
Investec's shares were up 3.34 per cent at the time of writing, to 556.4p.

As the Edinburg CISD bid farewell to Superintendent Gilbert Garza Jr. Tuesday night, newly named Superintendent Dr. Rene Gutierrez was already on hand to begin the transition process.
Garza announced his retirement earlier this school year, after serving the school district for 32 years � three of those as superintendent for the school district.
The school board recognized Garza for his service to the district, as an educator, and presented him with a plaque that read:
For his contribution to the legacy of learning: yesterday, today and tomorrow. By serving the Edinburg CISD for the past 32 years our fondest wishes for a rewarding well deserved retirement.
�You have been a great mentor and a great friend,� said ECISD Board president Omar Palacios, as he presented Garza with the plaque. �The lives that you touched and the difference you made in this district . . . any kind of award would not compare to everything that you have done for us.�
It was an emotional time for Garza, as he held back tears and tried to say a few words. �It is hard to leave half of your life, and the family you have grown to be with,� he said. �The hardest point in my career was to address the staff of my retirement to spend time with my family.�
Garza said he would continue to serve the community and offered his services as a private citizen during the transition. �I have my five children and 35,000 more that will continue to be a part of this school system, which I acknowledge is the best district in the nation,� he said.
After a standing ovation from the crowd, Garza accepted the plaque and hugged every board member. President Palacios then formally introduced Gutierrez, who comes to the district from the La Joya ISD where he served as assistant superintendent for administration and finance.
�I can�t remember in recent history when a search for superintendent has brought on so much controversy and doubt from all angles,� Palacios said.
After the announcement of the new superintendent, members of the community voiced their concerns over Gutierrez� experience. Palacios said Gutierrez has the finance forte, but many in the community wondered if he would be able to handle the curriculum.
�I think he is going to make a good superintendent and will be able to handle both the financial sector and curriculum sector,� he said.
Gutierrez said his first order of business will be to get to know the staff and familiarize himself with the different departments in the district, as well as the programs that the district has.
Gutierrez said he feels very fortunate to have been selected as the new superintendent, �my background and education have prepared me be superintendent of this district this size,� he said.
In his last school board meeting, Garza said he felt the same way he did when attended his first meeting. �It was business as usual, I feel like we have accomplished a lot in the past three years,� he said.
During Garza�s tenure, the school district created several educational programs as well as the construction of several new projects such as the new Technology Building, Fine Arts facilities for all of the three Edinburg high schools and groundbreakings for several renovation projects.
�I feel really good about leaving the district with a sense of progress that has been made,� he said. Garza then said the school board deserved the credit for supporting administration and for being visionaries. �They are visionaries for not only looking at what is needed right now, but what will be needed years from now,� he said.
Garza�s last day as superintendent is set for June 30, Gutierrez will begin his duties as the new superintendent July 1.

In Montana Darling (Big Sky Mavericks #3) by Debra Salomen, Mia is remaking her life, starting over in her hometown of Marietta, Montana. Mia has survived breast cancer and a divorce, and is determinedly moving forward. She has plans for the parcel of land she got in her divorce settlement...a new home, a new start. For now she is living in her parent's home with her two children. But an unexpected turn of events is about to create havoc for her plans.
After suffering a horrendous loss, Ryker, a professional photographer, is trying to find his way. Back to nature and camping on the land he owns with his brother in Marietta helps. Until he finds out it might not be his land after all when Mac shows up to toss his off her land.
Two injured people struggling to move forward, neither expecting to find an attraction...but sometimes fate works in mysterious way. Ryker sees beauty in Mia she can's see anymore, while Mia helps his heart heal. Will they finally be able to move on from the past?
Montana Darling is filled with emotions, serious issues and family dynamics. Debra writes about all of them well and in a realistic way. Ryker and Mia are both strong characters with lots going for them, if only they could see that. Mia has been through more than any woman should have to, and she struggles to be happy and to accept her new self. Ryker had his own heart break, and unlike Mia, had no family to support him and hold him up. I really liked how Debra brought these two together, and how without even realizing it Mia and Ryker were supporting each other. Understandably Mia is still bitter and unhappy, and how she moved through this in Montana Darling made me feel so hopeful for her. I liked how Ryker was, his character and how he was with Mia just drew me to him.
It was fun being back in small town Marietta, Montana, seeing characters we've seen before. Debra writes small town romance so well! I do think that Montana Darling can be read as a stand alone, but the whole series is worth reading! I'd recommend Montana Darling to any romance reader looking for a well written, easy flowing romance that explores many emotions as the characters struggle to redefine themselves.
4/5 stars

She did a really great job watching my dog. Nice family atmosphere and perfect for any and all pets. I really appreciated the accessibility and care that was provided. 10/10
Vicky did a wonderful job caring for our Snowball. He doesn't usually like unfamiliar environments so we expected him to be stressed out when we came to pick him up. We were surprised to find him relaxed and not even anxious to leave with us! Would easily use this sitter service again. Thanks!
I had Victoria watch my puppy Brooklyn and Brooklyn loved her!!! She was extremely loving and professional. I cannot wait to ask her to watch my dog again!

J.R.R. Tolkien: Dragons Use for Wealthon Wednesday, June 3, 2015
J.R.R. Tolkien Money Quotation saying Old misers, whether wealth of people or institutions can represent a financial risk if not considered as factors. J.R.R. Tolkien said:

OTs at work in the Yukon Territory
History of AYOT in Yukon.
In the 1970s, Yukoners received rehabilitation services from dual trained Physio/Occupational Therapists working at Whitehorse General Hospital. These services included acute in-patient services, out-patient services and some home visits by therapists to Whitehorse and rural Yukon residents (by 1984). In 1987 there were three occupational therapists working in the Yukon. Today, there are over fifteen Occupational Therapists providing services in full and part time capacities across the Yukon.
What are some priority projects for AYOT?
- Advocate to have the profession of Occupational Therapy regulated under the Health Care Professions Act (passed 2003).
- Work with Yukon Government's Public Service Commission to have Occupational Therapy positions reclassified at a Master's Level.
- Collaborate with the Yukon Government program - Supports for Families of Children with Disabilities to maximize families' access to pediatric Occupational Therapy.
- Lobby for reimbursement sources to promote Private Practice in the area of neuro-rehabilitation.
- Collaborate with Mental Health initiatives to identify the role of Occupational Therapy on a multi-disciplinary team.
- On-going education to the public with regards to services provided by Occupational therapists.

User talk:Belka808
Hello Belka, Just to let you know, Zine Wiki is a historical site that catalogs all zines. Once zines have been published and sold, the information about them enters the public domain, just as it does for any periodical, whether it is a magazine, a newspaper, a pamphlet, a journal, or anything that is reproduced, regardless of the amount of copies that are made. This is because people own copies of the publications and are free to write about them for books, magazines, blogs, Zine Wiki, or what have you, just as they could write about a CD for a music site, even if only the musician only sold ten copies. I have deleted your last name, since I imagine you are worried someone might find out you published this zine at one time if they do a search on the internet. I hope this will be sufficient.InvisibleFriend 06:39, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

Saturday June 7, 2008:
Day One of the tourney was hot and a golfing struggle. I did enjoy the company of former Senior Tour player Dick Goetz, and his wife, as well as being paired with Jim Hart and Gorman Thomas, however. Also, my caddie Tom and his son Tommy were a joy to be with. The evening's "Family Night" at Hill Field was warm and friendly. We sang "God Bless America," led by Doug Flynn, to the crowd assembled for the fireworks. (See accompanying pictures) My good friend Michael Teig joined me this week in the BOQ, caught up on pressing TigerLight web-work, and enjoyed the fellowship and great cause on offer at the Marine Corps Celebrity Classic. Please see www.tigerlight.net/t100 for the new light/spray combo given away.
Sunday June 8, 2008:
Paired with John Congemi and Buddy Shelton, the trick shot artist, on the final day was great. John is a very good player, a la Freddie (Couples.) Being the first tournament back after January's ski injury at Park City, expectations were low and my subsequent scores were high. Not traveling my bag meant easier airport transfers but I missed my Bridgestone Irons and Bobby Jones woods. Did play nine holes, however, at today's final round with the new El Diablo driver from Krank Golf, new equipment sponsors at the Marine Corps Celebrity Classic, having borrowed it from Chris Mohr's son Garrett who won it at Silent Auction night at the New River Hanger. Birdies on Paradise Point's Par 4 8th and Par 3 16th helped the golf part end on a good note. My friend from MCCC One (2004), Marine Captain Mike Bradford picked me up from the Bachelor's Officer Quarters for a comfortable ride to Jacksonville Airport. Their daughter Devon is graduating from high school and they have a busy week ahead. Mike has done four tours as an infantry Captain, in Fallujah, Ramadi and other hot spots and I was happy to hear that on the last tour he lost no Marines to combat casualty, a sign of relative calm for sure. His new posting is as a trainer at the new MARSOC (Marine Special Ops) Facility being readied for this September.

What is your background and how did you learn to apply makeup? Indu has always been a creative person interested in art and design. Indu sees makeup as wearable art. Principles of color theory and shape can be used in makeup application. So, Indu pursued makeup artist training to pursue her passion for beauty and helping others feel beautiful.
Why should I hire a makeup artist? It's an important decision for you. Here are a few details to consider when you are deciding to hire a professional makeup artist for a wedding.
- On the wedding day, you'll have so much on your plate to DIY
- You can be pampered and relaxed before you make your grand entrance
- You are unsure of what look or colors to use and how to apply it for photography
- Like to address concerns like redness or shine, undereye circles, hyper pigmentation
- You want the makeup to last all day through tears and dancing; and the colors and techniques will look great on photos till the end
- I can travel to you, so you can save time
- I'm self-employed and not employed by any cosmetics company, so my job is to help you look your best not sell makeup. No sales pressure.
- You will be saving money because in some cases hiring a makeup artist is more cost effective than purchasing high quality, long lasting pro cosmetics
- Makeup done professionally can finish the look of a wedding outfit
I know nothing about makeup or what look I want. When we first meet, I will ask you about your wedding or special event from decorations, location, formality, wedding colors, your dress or outfit for the occasion. We'll talk about everything from skin concerns (acne, redness, oily skin, wrinkles) to favorite colors. I can help with color choices and selections. An open mind and willingness to try something different is nice, but I want to make sure that you feel like yourself. I'll try to get a sense of your personal style and preferences based on your lifestyle and what you normally wear. Plus, it's only makeup. If something doesn't workout, we can always try something different. For brides, I require a trial.
Can I bring in a picture from a magazine or Pinterest? Absolutely. The only thing is that with some pictures, it is difficult to see the details of the makeup up close. Please bring a clear shot that allows me see the eyes and other features up close.
Do you do ethnic skin? Yes. My kit has a wide range of universal shades. My training emphasized how to pick colors for all types of skin tones. My kit has pro foundation in palettes that help me easily mix shades if needed to match your skin.
What happens during a makeup trial? Most people do a bridal makeup trial at least a month before the wedding date. A trial helps you try on different looks and choose the one that you love. On the big day, you can be relaxed knowing exactly what to expect. A trial also helps you make your decision. I recommend coming to the trial with a white shirt (or color of your wedding dress) with your hair styled somewhat similar. Hair doesn't have to be professional done but put it halfway up or up to mimic your wedding day hair. A veil maybe helpful but not necessary. A trial isn't binding and does not hold your wedding date. $50 will be charged for the trial. If you decide to go forward, your wedding date will be held once a contract is signed with a non-refundable deposit. And $50 will be credited to your total.
Do you work with groups? I can do up to 6 people alone, given that I have enough time. If you have a much larger group or the time frame isn't adequate, I will need to bring an assistant for an additional charge.
How far in advance should I book? I will take appointments on an availability basis. I recommend booking in advance during wedding, prom season, and holidays. Most brides book their session once they have a clear idea of your theme, style, and vision. 1 month prior to wedding date is recommended at and 3 months prior during peak wedding season.
Makeup on the groom and men? Grooms, why let the brides have all the fun? Men too have concerns with redness, acne, uneven skin, scars, oily skin, and thin eyebrows. I can also apply makeup on the groom to ensure that he looks flawless, natural, and masculine. No one will see makeup but great skin and features.
What kind of makeup brands do you use? My kit has professional products that most of you may or may not have heard of and some excellent consumer brands. The products used are: RCMA, Temptu, Kryolan Professional, Urban Decay, Ben Nye, Smashbox, MAC, Anastasia Beverly Hills among many others. These products have been recommended as excellent for photography with a good reputation among my industry peers.
I have sensitive skin and concerned about allergies. If you have sensitive skin or had a reaction to any particular brand or product, please let me know so that I can find a product suitable for you. In a nutshell, my foundation is fragrance-free and made up of wax, oil, and pigment. I'll be more than happy to share specific brands, ingredient list of individual products and we can do an allergy test, so that you can make a decision.
Can I get pampered with spa treatments before makeup application? If you are planning to get a facial or any other skin treatment, (whether you had a past allergic reaction or not) please have it done at least 48 hours before the event or as directed by your esthetician. Skin tends to be sensitive right after spa treatment, especially facial extractions. If in doubt, please consult your esthetician or dermatologist. Also, I recommend not trying new products during the week of your wedding date. I can tell you a story of a bride waking up to puffy eyes on her wedding day after trying a new eye cream.

Most dogs who are rescued from puppy mills were living in cruelty. They had become fearful and scared when dealing with people. Some of them can develop monster-like behaviors due to animal abuse and isolation. Unfortunately, they remain homeless for years or euthanized as people don't want to adopt damaged dogs. They end up as hopeless cases.
However, the video below shows that there is still "heroes" out there who dedicate their lives to save these animals and give them a better chance of life. Coconut is one of those dogs who got trapped in a puppy mill. They found her starving, shivering and fearful of people. While other dogs that have been saved that day could quickly find a forever home, Coconut couldn't even accept to be touched. Battered and broken, it is likely that she had never experienced love from a kind human before. It's hard to describe how incredible her transformation was, thus we invite you to witness it for yourself.
Please don't forget to SHARE Coconut's amazing recovery with your family and friends!

"If you watched these guys play in November and December… and now you're watching the way they've played in the last month, that turnaround is one of the better stories I think in college basketball this year to this point."
That is what Northern Iowa head basketball coach Ben Jacobson had to say about the performance of the Drake Bulldogs over the course of the last two months of action for the team.
In the time following Drake's 1-7 start and Ray Giacoletti's subsequent resignation as head coach, the Bulldogs have gone 6-8.
Not exactly lighting the world on fire right?
The difference in the play of the Bulldogs however, is not negligible.
When Drake welcomed Loyola (Chicago) to the Knapp Center for the Missouri Valley Conference opener, the Bulldogs grabbed a large lead, fended off a late run and started MVC play 1-0.
That game set the tone for how the Bulldogs have played since.
Saturday's 71-63 loss to the Panthers was hotly-contested throughout.
As for Jacobson's kind words, coming from a coach whose team seems to have figured out solutions to its early season slump, his words were welcome with hesitation by Drake interim head coach Jeff Rutter.
"I appreciate him saying that. Our staff is incredibly, incredibly proud of our guys," Rutter said. "As their confidence has grown, it has been so fun to watch them make plays out there on the floor for each other for themselves, winning plays, crunch-time plays…I'd like to speak for these guys as well (players) we're just kind of in our own little bubble…just trying to get better, enjoying the experience, enjoying the journey. And just to be us."
Included within the stretch since conference play started were several impressive results, including a momentous road win at Missouri State last Tuesday.
The Bulldogs also came into Saturday's game the winners of four straight home games.
Chances are, that had a lot to do with 5,237 fans deciding to show up to the Knapp Center for Drake's game with Northern Iowa, representing the highest attendance for a Drake home game in three seasons.
"That crowd is our plus-10 going forward," Drake junior guard C.J. Rivers said.
While Reed Timmer has been his usual self, scoring in bunches, guys like Ore Arogundade, DeAntae McMurray and others are emerging as scorers in Drake's quick-hitting offense.
"We want to be aggressive, we want to be on the attack. We want our opponent to be on their heels," Rutter said.
With Drake sitting at 5-5 in MVC play, far more conference teams will look at Drake on their schedule and be on their heels.
The Bulldogs will continue to run, continue to shoot the three-ball, and get out in transition consistently.
With the likes of Wichita State and the fighting Gregg Marshall's coming to Des Moines Wednesday, the Bulldogs will look to avenge a 25-point loss earlier this season. Drake welcomes the Shockers coming off a loss to a team that is certainly not better than the Wichita State.
"Here it's a disappointing loss," Rutter said. "It's a setback, but again, you say who's next?
And who's next is the Wichita State Shockers.

Mad Trump, Happy W. - The New York Times
"When he froths about crowd size like a bus-and-truck "Caine Mutiny," when he compares the intelligence community to Nazi Germany and labels the press "the enemy of the American people," when he insists that black is white and night is day and makes up whoppers about voter fraud, the body politic's defenses go up on alert against the Trump virus.
But when he behaves more normally, the guard comes down.
It's an optical delusion. People get terrified by Crazy Trump. But really, that makes it easier to fight back, because we see the crazy right out there on Twitter.
People were relieved at Calm Trump. But really, that's more potentially dangerous because if he learns how to behave in a more measured, charming way on the surface, he can put a disarming face on harsh policies or duplicitous practices.
If he seems less like a mad man aiming to rip everything apart, he can more easily rip everything apart.
When I asked Silicon Valley mogul and Trump adviser Peter Thiel recently if he was worried about Trump appointing heads of agencies who wanted to blow up those agencies, the contrarian replied that I had it backward.
"If you actually want to change things in D.C., who should you appoint?" he said. "Maybe if you appoint someone who says, 'I want to shut down this whole agency,' then that person will just have to deal with a staff revolt. And everybody will ignore their orders for three or four years.
"So I think, in theory, to probably change things the most, it's better if you appoint someone who sounds like they're not that controversial but then will just really work at changing things."
As W. ambled back on to the public stage a few days ago, promoting his new book of paintings and stories, "Portraits of Courage: A Commander in Chief's Tribute to America's Warriors," we had a vivid illustration of how far likability can get you.
When Jimmy Fallon ruffled Trump's hair during the campaign, it was treated as a hideous breach, normalizing the invading vulgarian.
But when Jimmy Kimmel joked with W. on Thursday night, the audience reacted warmly. Compared to Trump, it was like W. was the soul of decency and self-deprecation, on his way to Mount Rushmore.
So does it really matter that his policies helped contribute to the greatest economic collapse since the Great Depression and the worst foreign policy blunder in American history?
Asked by Willie Geist on "Sunday Today" about his decision to send soldiers into Iraq and Afghanistan, W. replied lamely: "I don't regret sending soldiers into battle. I regret they got hurt."
Chatting about the Oscar flub, Kimmel noted that W. had also been "involved in many notable faux pas," as W. laughed.
"Mission accomplished," W. replied, smirking.
It's still too soon to laugh about "Mission Accomplished," especially when peddling anguished portraits of wounded veterans. In fact, it will always be too soon to laugh about "Mission Accomplished."

The pilot implementation of the European Project IGMA: EU Integration Agent starts tomorrow, Tuesday, June 18, in Larissa. The IGMA project is a two-year Grundtvig programme, coordinated by Folkuniversitetet, Uppsala in which organizations from 6 European countries are participating: Sweden, Netherlands, Spain, Romania, Cyprus and Greece (Dimitris ITD).
The main objective of IGMA is to increase the accessibility of unskilled immigrants in Adult Education and the labour market, by developing an innovative guidance methodology, aimed at executives working in inclusion via education and employment, and through the operation of a local network of agencies and departments which will apply this methodology in order to promote unskilled immigrants to education and labour.
The training seminar, as part of the implementation of the project, will take place at the premises of DIMITRA ITD. The local network that has already been established with employees of the Greek Manpower Organisation, the Institute of Psychosocial Development and representatives of adult education organizations and the local labor market will be participating at the seminar. The participants will be trained in the innovative coaching methodology developed in the first stage of the project and will be certified as EU Integration Agents. After the training, the pilot implementation of the methodology will take place at a regional level.

French tycoon to drop plans for Paris modern arts gallery
Pathétique! Francois Pinault (who owns Gucci and Christie's Auction House among other things) offers to spend $195 million dollars to build a museum, and the town of Boulogne-Billancourt in France snubs him. "If Pinault decides he has to move the museum to Venice, it will be because he has been so discouraged by the attitude of the public authorities here," Catherine Millet, editor of Artpress magazine and author of the international best-seller The Secret life of Catherine M, told AFP."
Too Much Information - Guradian article about Gregory Crewdson exhibition in London. "Gregory Crewdson uses Hollywood techniques to create glossy, Hopper-like portraits of American life. But where Hopper stripped lives bare, these images offer an overabundance of detail."
"The museum has very largely supplanted the church as the emblematic focus of the American city."
- Robert Hughes

Notes on Antique Textiles, Folk Art & Timeless Traditions – Jaina Mishra
Parables – simple stories used to illustrate a spiritual lesson – are found in every religion.
But this way of painting these stories on furniture is unique.
Was it a devotional form of art for Buddhist monks that eventually found its way into becoming a piece of furniture? Or was painting on furnture directed intentionally so as to embed these wise stories within the daily life of the householder?
Either way we are left with beautiful works of art from the past:
If only I could possess all that I saw in the beautiful store – if only I could possess the spirit within all the art!
