Lollipop top
Added Sep 20, 2011

Chicago, Illinoi...
I choose a personal pattern designed during my early beginning in the magic world of sewing, 2 years ago ;)
This time I added a kind of bra: a piece of white jersey with an elastic. That gives it a sporty touch in addition to the shape of the back + straps, already there in the initial design.
You can see more pictures in my blog: http://weriem.com/en/2011/09/lollipop-top-ete-2011/

Love the straps!

Yeah, I'm also loving these straps. Bon travail! ;-)
But on the note of lollipops and French, I was in French class last week and was introduced to this amazingly inappropriate song on that exact subject: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3RwVOSpcVo — Gotta love Gainsbourgh. :P

Lonesome George, the last Abingdon Island tortoise (Geochelone abingdoni) in the world, has been tasked with preserving the genetic legacy of his species by reproducing.
At the grand old age of 90, George is in his sexual prime so conservationists from the Galapagos National Park have identified two new female partners from a closely related species, the Hood Island tortoise (Geochelone hoodensis) to try to encourage him to mate.
Islands' most eligible bachelor
Ecuador's Galapagos Islands are home to many unusual species, but none are as rare as Lonesome George. Despite being the Galapagos Islands' most eligible bachelor, for the last 20 years George has tried and failed to sire offspring with his previous mates, as none of their eggs resulted in viable offspring.
But George still has plenty of life left in him, and scientists now believe George may have a better chance of reproducing with his two new partners from the archipelago's Spanish Island. Genetic studies have shown that the newly arrived tortoises "are genetically closer… more compatible, and could offer greater possibilities of producing offspring", the park's statement said.
World's 'rarest living creature'
If this attempt fails, Diego Cisneros, a herpetologist at the National Park, says there could be other options. "There are certain methodologies, hybridization, cloning, etc. but they are not so easy and we're talking about reptiles, the study of which is not as advanced as the studies of other animals."
It would be an encouraging story for all threatened species if George, the world's 'rarest living creature', was to pass on his legacy to another generation. So let's hope it's love at first sight and George and his two new companions hit if off.

Power BI – TfL Video Description
At the heart of every organisation is one key thing: data. Data that can empower every individual within every organisation to achieve more. Data that can change businesses, change processes, and change the world.
Take Transport for London (TfL) for example. They have access to reams and reams of data to help them keep one of the world's busiest cities moving. And with Power BI, they could quickly and easily visualise that data in a brand new way. A way that could reinvent productivity and business processes within TfL.
Using Power BI, TfL could, for example, add live data to an SVG file of the London tube map and immediately see which lines are experiencing delays. Or they could delve into past data, allowing them to detect any trends in tube delays.
Similarly, by using Power BI's Bing map function, TfL could also map all of London's traffic webcams, complete with the camera's current view. By combining this map with live data on road disruptions in London (as we have done), TfL could immediately see any minor, moderate, or major traffic delays, and identify the nearest traffic cameras. They could then view the feeds of these cameras, quickly identify the cause of the delay, and resolve it as quickly as possible.
In short, by utilising the power of Power BI, TfL could keep commuters happy, and keep London's intricate transport systems moving.
Because that's what Power BI does – it gives organisations the power to make better decisions, create better outcomes, and ultimately achieve more. The sky is truly the limit with Power BI, and with it your organisation can begin the journey to a more personal computing experience – one that meets your unique needs and solves your unique challenges.

Asian cultures are cool, right? Japanese culture, especially! And to celebrate your love of Japanese culture, you're thinking of getting an ultra-cool mystical-looking powerful samurai-yakuza-hime tattoo! Don't worry. I'm here to help you decide on how to pick your perfect work of bodyart.
You're probably thinking of getting something solid, like "power" or "discipline" or "dragon" on your shoulder or bicep, someplace big and visible so that everyone can see it when you're out wearing your tank top (I HATE the term "wifebeater" for this style of shirt. I won't use it. It's a freaking tank top, okay?) I know, I know. I had that phase too. When I was 12.
But you're not 12. You're whatever legal age to get a tattoo is in your area. And you're going to get an AWESOME tattoo to show how awesome you are, with your deep, awesome, totally profound and superior love of this foreign culture.You know exactly what tattoo you want, or maybe you're not quite sure yet, but you'll know when you get to the shop and scan through their books to figure it out. Or maybe you'll use Google Translate and hope for the best. But one thing is for sure: the person giving you that tattoo isn't Asian, and if they are, they don't know Japanese. Or Chinese. And they're not the same language, even though much of the kanji is imported from China.
Then you get your super-cool tattoo. It reads "UNBREAKABLE". You're rough, tough, buff, and now everyone knows it. You're freaking Jet Li meets Ken Watanabe mixed with Bruce Willis.
Only one problem: it doesn't actually read "unbreakable" in the way you think it does. You lack cultural context. And on top of that, tattoos in Japan are still largely associated with criminals, and are somewhat of a taboo unless you were brought up or accepted into a certain type of subculture. So if you want to go over there with that in a visible place, expect to get a mixed reaction from people. Japanese generally know that foreigners are more accepting of tattoos, and tattoos are gradually becoming more acceptable because of foreign influence, and you're going back to your country soon anyways, but a long history of connotation is not going to just vanish in the face of one (usually white) guy's visit to Japan. I know, I know, "REVERSE RACISM!!1" But you're going back to your own country soon, right? And the people there understand your love of the culture of the country you just visited, even better than the people you just spent time with do.
On top of that, it's perplexing as to why you got something like that in kanji to begin with. You know that's an actual language, right? It's not like a Dali painting, full of subtext and symbolism. It's literally a word, just like English has characters that make words. Their characters for words just have different lines. Just like we have compound words, they have compound kanji. For example, our words like weekend is week + end to make one word. In Japanese, that's 週 末. 週 means 'week', 末 means 'end'.
Which brings me to a series of tips for the super-cool totally-relevant people who want (Southeast) Asian tattoos:
- If you would not write this super-cool thing on your body in your native language, don't do it in someone else's language.
- If the person giving you this tattoo doesn't read that language, don't have them do that tattoo.
- If you are not connected to the culture (and I mean actually connected, not "I really love Ozu movies and kawaii anime girls"), do not get that tattoo.
- If the culture you respect so much generally frowns on tattoos, you may want to reconsider getting that tattoo.
- If you think that translation works on a letter-by-letter transliteration basis with the English language, do not get that tattoo.
Hopefully this resolves the complex issue of what to get for your awesome Asian Tattoo.

Good Morning Everyone,
Here is my third entry for Quoting the Kiddies! I have a few funnies written down and thought I'd share them with all of you!
Setting the Scene
This one comes from my TWO year old cousin. The family is sitting in the den chatting (loudly) and eating (We're Greek - this is what we do).
Quoting Denise
Cousin Nikki, I have something imporTANENT to tell you.
Yep. It was really imporTANENT for Denise to tell me that she just HAD to hear Uptown Funk that very second. (She knows all the words btw).
Setting the Scene
It's one of the first days of school and we are completing calendar as a class. I ask students where we should tally the weather for the day. Tom jokingly says SNOW. Another student answers: "Why would he say that!?"
Quoting Tom
"MMMmmmm, I don't know. Maybe I'm a little weather blind."
You don't have to wonder anymore. Weather blindness is a thing.
Setting the Scene
It's Friday morning and I'm on supervision. Alex runs up to me with a bag filled with chocolates. "I'm selling chocolates for my hockey team Ms. Nicole!" (the paper in his bag clearly stated karate fundraiser by the way). "Here you can have one." (as he places a bar in my hand).
Quoting Alex
5 minutes later in class. "Ms. Nicole do you have my 3 dollars? Cause if not I'm gonna have to take that back. Also, do you have a fridge or somewhere cool I can put these cause they're gonna melt."
Yep, my 7 year old student sure has a knack for sales. He managed to sell 3 chocolate bars in a matter of minutes! No one could say no to that adorable face and well he also kinda didn't leave us much of a choice!
Setting the Scene
It's art class and the art teacher is teaching my students about primary and secondary colors.
Quoting Ryan
As she shows them why we mix yellow and red together, Ryan pipes up and says "This seems like a lot of work for nothing, why don't you just BUYYYYY orange?"
This little guy doesn't believe in wasting time and energy! Why make it if you can buy it!
Setting the Scene
Lunch as just ended and I am heading into class. Jordan is standing by the door.

A safety audit checklist is a list of items that businesses in just about every field use to determine the safety of the workplace environment. These checklists contain a detailed list of succinct and actionable items that can help identify weaknesses in the operation of the business.
Many injuries and illnesses that are work-related happen for one of three different reasons: engineering controls, administrative controls and equipment controls. A safety checklist can help prevent injuries and illnesses from happening under these controls. Businesses should establish safe work practice and should develop written procedures on how to maintain safety. A business should also have a time limit on exposure to hazards and monitor the use of any hazardous materials. It should put in place warnings, signs and alarms, as well as a buddy system for when something goes wrong. Businesses should also have comprehensive training in place.
Some safety procedures that businesses can implement including making sure the proper doors are locked, replacing inside and outside burned-out light bulbs, closing drawers when walking away from a filing cabinet or desk, knowing the proper technique for lifting heavy items, and providing workstations that are adjustable to accommodate for the different heights of employees. A safety checklist should encompass inspection of all of the safety measures a workplace takes.

J.D. Power study finds Lexus the most dependable brand
The J.D. Power and Associates 2013 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study (VDS) offers promising news for current owners as well as prospective buyers of 2010-model-year cars and trucks. This annual survey, which measures problems experienced during the previous 12 months by original owners of 3-year-old vehicles, found that overall, problems decreased by about 5 percent compared to the industry figure for 2009 models evaluated in Power's 2012 VDS. Topping the ratings as repeat winner in the Most Dependable Brand category was Lexus. It recorded a stellar 71 problems per 100 vehicles (PP100), the key stat the organization uses as its measurement benchmark.
Also check out the 10 Best Cars for Winter
Filling out the Top 10 Brand rankings are Porsche (94 PP100), Lincoln (112 PP100), Toyota (112 PP100), Mercedes-Benz (115 PP100), Buick (118 PP100), Honda (119 PP100), Acura (120 PP100), Ram (122 PP100), and Suzuki (122 PP100). Mazda (124 PP 100) and Chevrolet (125 PP100) were the only other automakers to record scores better than the industry average of 126 problems per 100. That figure -- which was down from 132 in 2012 -- is the lowest number since the VDS was instituted in 1989. The 2013 Power VDS also found that while import nameplates (123 PP100) still hold an edge in the rankings, the domestic manufacturers (133 PP100) have cut that margin from 13 to 10 problems from the preceding year.
According to David Sargent, vice president of global automotive at J.D. Power and Associates, the news was equally good for new or substantially redesigned vehicles. In that arena, 2010 models outperformed their 2009 counterparts, earning an average dependability score of 116 PP100 on the 2013 VDS versus 133 PP100 in 2012. Sargent notes that unlike in the past when these remade offerings frequently fell victim to first-year issues, "the rapid improvement in fundamental vehicle dependability each year is more than offsetting any initial glitches that all-new or redesigned models may have."
Also see 10 Most Comfortable Cars Under $30,000
On an individual model level, the 2013 Lexus RX became the first SUV/Crossover vehicle to ever roll off with the top overall-ratings honor, recording just 57 problems per 100 on average. Ram experienced the greatest upward move for a brand, shedding 52 PP100 from its 2012 figure. Collectively, Toyota/Lexus/Scion accounted for seven segment wins, while GM grabbed four, Honda/Acura netted a pair and Audi, Ford, Hyundai, Mazda and Nissan earned one each.
"The continuous improvement in long-term dependability means consumers should have more confidence in three-year-old vehicles, whether they are keeping their current vehicle or shopping for a used car, truck, crossover or SUV," said Sargent. "This means there are a lot of dependable off-lease vehicles in the used-vehicle market. It also means that owners who keep their vehicle beyond the manufacturer's warranty period are able to have greater peace of mind that vehicles are becoming increasingly more dependable. That said, it is virtually certain that new vehicles being sold today will be even more reliable in three years."

There's no simple answer to the question, what's the most effective bed bug therapy? Solutions may vary based on the level of infestation discovered. The greatest aim must be total reduction however while different approaches may be used to regulate the bed bugs. The following processes can be performed generally to eradicate them. Sometimes they not all may be required.
First thing to accomplish would be to make certain that there's a bed insect infestation. There's nothing to distinguish bite scars left by bed bugs from bite scars left by other bugs like mosquitoes. Thus so that you can make certain that a beg bug infestation is the next practices may be used. See whether you can find distinct red fecal areas and marks left by the bedbugs on garments such as bed cloths or beds. Also try to find skins or eggs shed in cracks and other areas, in the process molting. For exact detection seized bed bugs can be compared with reference photos online from various options.
Beg bug treatment can begin after the infestation is ascertained. This might contain individually or many procedures performed one after another. One of many first steps should be to keep bats and chickens away from the home. These pets' nests like properties that are human and host perform with to bed bugs and which could have already been the method by which they were presented towards the property.
Most of the needless mess in the house ought to be removed so the amount of hiding places open to bed bugs is reduced. Items removed within this procedure should be inspected, washed, and if needed used with insecticide. Sleep towels and other garments that show symptoms of infestation or could have been ravaged, and if they're reusable, should be washed using heated water. They must be placed in a textile dryer in a warm if they cannot be laundered for some reason. They can also be put into sunlight for many days. After completely washing them first, furniture also can be put in the sun for a number of times. Setting the same goods outside for approximately fourteen days during winter may obtains similar results. Such goods that are like and rugs could be steam cleaned to rid them.

This suspect was apparently weighed down by his criminal cravings.
A parolee was arrested Friday on suspicion of consuming $70 worth of food at a San Carlos sports bar and leaving without paying the bill, according to the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office.
About 2 p.m., deputies said, 44-year-old Patrick Higgins allegedly had a feast before fleeing out the rear door of Sneakers Pub & Grill, located at 1163 San Carlos Ave. The food must have weighed heavily on him. Deputies caught up to the 6-foot, 250-pound San Carlos resident while he was "walking" nearby on Elm Street.
To Higgins' credit, the citizen who flagged down a deputy about the theft did see the alleged crook "running south through the Wells Fargo parking lot while being chased by restaurant employees," according to sheriff's deputies.
Higgins was identified by restaurant employees and further investigation revealed that he was on parole for a theft conviction in Marin County.

Can I Contract HPV Through Oral Sex?
As I mentioned, HPV is the most prevalent STD in the world today. Another factoidz article brought up an interesting point about the occurrence of oral HPV asking "What's in your mouth?" Great question. These days I suggest we include the question "Who's in your mouth and where else have they been?"
It is true that cigarette smoking, tobacco chewing, neglected oral hygiene, and heredity can produce cancers in the mouth. These factors may produce warts, sores and lesions. Oral cancers and occurrences of HPV orally have been on the increase since 1973. I believe, undeniably, that the increase in oral HPV is due to the increase of oral sex. I can actually attest to this as a fact after five plus years seeing oral and genital HPV and the warts that it can produce. I have seen it first hand in the healthcare settings where I have been privileged to work in the area of infectious diseases. I have experienced it personally.
While age does play a major part in cancers of the mouth, there is an increase in oral HPV worldwide due to expanded acceptance and practicing of oral sex.
Unfortunately, this now pertains to younger generations where the occurrences of oral HPV, as well as HPV genitally (in the boxer shorts area) have also increased. Our future generations are having sexual contact younger and younger with little complete, unbiased, unedited, pertinent, "public approved" education available to youngsters and people in general. More of this education would warn and inform people of all ages of the consequences of their physical actions, no matter how seemingly innocent they seem at the time.
Past generations have not practiced or admitted to practicing as much oral sex as those of us may currently experience because it was just not talked about. All types of sex must be talked about. All types of STD's must be talked about. Why? Because not talking about it is not working on the problem.
Practicing oral sex, in the eyes of the many different generations, but especially the eyes of our younger generations, doesn't seem to be labeled as true or real sex because no intercourse has taken place.
Let me verify now that no matter what age you are, any physical contact that exchanges bodily fluids is sex.
You have made physical contact and exchanged some sort of bodily fluid even if it is just kissing. Due to the fact that all it takes for some STD's to transfer from one person to another is an open portal, an opening of any sort in the skin in the boxer shorts area, such as a scratch, a scrape an opened pimple or hair bump and the presence of that disease state in one of the participating parties, and the transfer of viruses can be completed. And remember HIV, HPV and herpes are viruses and viruses are smart and tricky. These viruses may lie dormant for days, months or years before showing themselves with no accounting for age, gender or social standing. Disease is not selective.
I know of a woman who found herself with herpes genitally after years in a monogamous relationship after her mother passed away. Another found out her 15 year old daughter had contracted oral HPV by finding information previously viewed on their home computer. The mother was shocked to discover her young daughter was sexually active. The uneducated young girl had no idea what was going on in her mouth, felt like she couldn't confide in her mother and searched the internet to self diagnose. They now have a much more open relationship and the warts have been removed. They are both much more informed, but this young lady will carry that virus for life and may have further problem to deal with much later on. HPV can "run its course" but the virus is still present in the body.
When I appeared on an area television program, I was asked to remark on how the virus lies dormant, I replied that people have been married or monogamous for a good amount of time and have awoken one day finding themselves with their primary outbreak of herpes or HPV. Viruses hide.
I always encourage those I counsel not to jump to irrational conclusions and to realize that probably none of us were virgins when our relationships began. If the couple has not been tested for STD's together before, I strongly suggest they do so now, together.
These viruses react to our physical and emotional states. If all has been sunny and bright in a relationship thus far and there have been no bumps in the road and suddenly there is an argument, a death or an illness then a great amount of stress becomes present. These factors can awaken the HPV or herpes virus and open up a big can of Uh-Oh. This scenario can and has happened. A person who may have never known they were affected by herpes or HPV may wake up and find out the exact opposite. Certainly this primary outbreak could occur orally but most often times occurs genitally if there has been actual intercourse.
With the rise in oral contact and no actual intercourse, the presence of oral HPV in younger people is exploding. Without making complete, unbiased, unedited, pertinent information and education available to youngsters and people in general, without the fear of negative social stigma or fear of rejection or retribution, these statistics will continue to grow. This is a wakeup call.
After all, intimacy isn't just the act of sex. Intimacy is being willing to put it on paper and be honest and up front with all partners before the act. Remember what the commercial says "Sex can wait. You are worth it." That goes for us all, no matter what age!

Thanks very much John! I wrote that a while ago. I will be researching the Oracare product to see what it is all about!
Good deal. Thanks so much for the info.
Let me know if I may be of any additional assistance.
All the best to you!
Amy :o)
This a great article . Oracare makes an oral hpv test for men or women . Who is the author of this article ?
Media has been promoting the HPV vaccine for women lately ...great. Wondering, -if there is or will there be anything similar for men? Surely men have this and transmit it, will there be a similar vaccine for men or is there already? Give us another Factoidz on the subject.

"La Défense! Le pont de La Défense!" Le Petit was practically jumping up and down in excitement.
La Défense, the business district outside of Paris certainly doesn't make me dream. My husband has spent enough time working there to almost detest it. Yet whenever we drive by Le Petit looks up at the skyscrapers, entranced. He insists, even, that we take a certain route home from our weekend outings to the Parc de Saint Cloud so we pass at the feet of the giant towers.
It isn't far from our apartment as the crow flies or even, as I learned on Wednesday, as an almost-five-year-old pedals -- unsteadily -- on his two-wheeled bicycle. Late in the afternoon, we left Mademoiselle with her doting grandparents and headed out on what I thought would be a short ride around an the island in the Seine near our house, but Le Petit fixed the buildings downstream and announced we were on our way to the "Pont de la Défense." "Le pont des tours de la Défense," to use his name precisely: the La Défense towers' bridge, found on the map as the less romantic Pont de Neuilly. I ran alongside him on the wide sidewalk, ready to help him stop at intersections or swerve around pedestrians, and decided to humor him. Why not? We'd go a little closer, get a better view, maybe see La Grande Arche and then go home.
Le Petit is fascinated by geography, both of the world and of Paris, his city. He recognizes Paris landmarks with remarkable accuracy, not just the Eiffel Tower, but the Tour Saint-Jacques and the Hôtel de Ville, the Panthéon and the Palais de Chaillot. He loves studying maps, and can find and name the five continents and all the major French cities even though he can't yet read. He's beginning to exhibit his father's second sense for orientation; when we're out in the car, he knows exactly where we are and in which direction we're headed and whether or not we're taking the optimal route. When he was littler, and less reasonable though no less stubborn, he threw a temper tantrum until my husband drove him through Place de la République.
We got to the bridge, where I briefly thought of turning back. There was traffic, and traffic fumes, and I had no idea how we'd navigate the crowds of business people with Le Petit's bike. But I want to be the mom who does things on a whim, just because they're important to my kid. Improvising isn't easy with a toddler, and now about the best I can do is let Le Petit choose our itinerary when we're out on a bike ride. Luckily for me, le Petit is at an age where wonder comes relatively effortlessly, so my creativity isn't too taxed just yet.
We pedaled and walked the bike slowly up the Esplanade de la Défense all the way to the Grande Arche, the modern mirror of the Arc de Triomphe. We stopped for a long to admire a giant, multicolored mosaic basin with dancing fountains. Le Petit insisted that I take a photo with my phone to send to Daddy. Then he turned around and discovered that we had a direct view on the Arc de Triomphe. "Oooo, look!"
We took the train back, le Petit keeping close and listening to my instructions in the swirl of commuters. We must have amused a few, him with his running commentary of the sights out the window, me with his bike over my shoulder.

The Art of Love: Film Review
French director Emmanuel Mouret's intermittently amusing sixth feature consists of vignettes in which everyone obsesses over and discusses matters romantic and sexual.
LOCARNO — The shadow of Woody Allen hangs heavy over Emmanuel Mouret'sintermittently amusing sixth feature, The Art of Love (L'Art d'aimer), an lukewarm, episodic criss-crosser examining the Parisian counterparts of those urban, well-heeled, educated Manhattanites, all white and heterosexual with various minor hang-ups and neuroses, familiar from decades of Allen movies. An ensemble full of stars from recent French hits will boost the picture's domestic appeal and may open more doors for writer/director/actor Mouret (best known for 2007's Shall We Kiss) in terms of festival play and TV sales.
As 1972's Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Sex (But Were Afraid To Ask) demonstrated, even Allen struggled with a multi-episode portmanteau structure. And Mouret fares little better, the format proving an awkward showcase for what could have been a couple of effective stand-alone works. Most potent is a segment about a long-wed couple whose marriage is threatened when the wife (Ariane Ascaride) finds herself lusting after every attractive man she meets. ("I can't fight my own body any more," she sobs.) As usual in The Art of Love, infidelity is suggested but never actually committed. Mouret instead building up to a conclusion that's genuinely touching and romantic. This section is essentially a fine, self-contained short, but is unsatisfactorily integrated within the lopsided overall design.
The last of the ten 'chapters' is among the longest, but works so well it could have been expanded to full feature-length. Re-introducing several characters from earlier episodes, it's a classically-constructed farce in which two strangers end up having regular sexual encounters without learning each others' identities, the bizarre result of unlucky-in-love singleton Isabelle (Julie Depardieu) helping out a pal. Depardieu is a ditzy delight as Isabelle, the actress's deft comic gifts enabling us to swallow the contrived scenario.
Other vignettes range from the mildly diverting to the tiresomely protracted. A sequence involving a young couple, the male half of which is played by heartthrob Gaspard Ulliel, could be profitably trimmed or even excised altogether.
Four sections are skits featuring a horny middle-aged smoothie (François Cluzet) and his new neighbor (Frédérique Bel), a fickle blonde who muses "maybe I should have an affair..." during their first chat. Their budding ardor is imperiled by their (or rather her) over-articulate, excessively analytical approach to matters of the heart. Indeed, nearly everyone here spends endless time obsessing over and discussing matters romantic and sexual. And as if there wasn't enough gabbing, Mouret also occasionally throws in an omniscient narrator (Philippe Torreton). As with recent Allen movies, these voice-overs often simply spell out what we're seeing, endowing proceedings with a distracting 'pseudo-literary' air, as well as revealing a (misplaced) lack of faith in the performers' considerable abilities.

- Joey returned to save them, aiming to cause a distraction while they escaped with an unconscious Raz. However, the plan went awry, and Joey lost his bike to the Trollcannon. Joey kept running until he got to the beach, where he had a Feast and cried a little bit. Meanwhile, the others just waited until the police went home, then left unnoticed.
- Khalid sent Raz to the hospital, then was angry, then was nice. He gave the team ¥2000 to sort themselves out, and introduced Dragon, who is actually a dwarf with hairy trousers.
- We all went to the theme park to cheer ourselves up. Pwnan wanted to win a Conan plushie on the test-your-strength game, but was too feeble. Vlad hustled the shooting gallery roustabout out of a top-prize air rifle, then further hustled the test-of-strength guy into swapping it for a Conan plushie. He did not give it to Pwnan. Dragon, however, won one legitimately and did give it to Pwnan, who became his new best friend. Between the six of us, we were completely unable to win a goldfish from the most rudimentary of sideshow games.
- Attended the residents meeting, where most of the locals seemed to be stupid, racist-by-default types, rather than actual fascists. However, Zephyr (wearing a reasonable amount of face-putty) received a secret invite to a Humanis Polyclub meeting.
- Drove into the desert to "brief" the Children of the Storm. Stopped by Danny Trejo and friends on the way, unable to negotiate due to his impenetrable stupidity, had to pay ¥50 to pass. One day, I am going to drive out to the desert and end him.
Total Eclipse
An Expensive Mistake...
We will *never* see that kind of money again in our lifetimes

An epidemic of hoof and mouth disease in Britain is spreading fear and illness around the world. More than 7,000animals mainly pigs, cows and sheep have been slaughtered in Britain and the infection is far from being contained.Germany and the Netherlands also started slaughtering thousands of animals imported from the UK, while Frenchauthorities placed 47,000 imported animals in quarantine.
In an atmosphere of mounting alarm, Belgian farmers clashed with riot police in Brussels and countries in Asia, theMiddle East and Africa are also looking their imported livestock in the mouth.
The sight of pyres of burning animal carcasses brought back memories in England of a 1967 epidemic of foot-and-mouthdisease that forced the slaughter of nearly half a million livestock. But that epidemic was largely confined toBritain. Today, the spread of disease is facilitated by the globalization of the food industry and theindustrialization of farming that ensures that large numbers of animals will be penned, killed and processedtogether and then eaten around the world.
A key force behind this globalization and consolidation of our food industries has been the enormous success of suchfast food empires as McDonalds, Burger King, KFC, and Taco Bell. One in four Americans goes into a fast foodrestaurant every day. The industry has reshaped not only the eating habits of Americans and millions of othersaround the world, it has impacted, culture, real estate, agriculture, the family, the health, the workplace and thevery landscape of America.
- Eric Schlosser, has written a sweeping, detailed account of the transformation of America. His book,??Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All American Meal, in the tradition of Upton Sinclair, exposes thedirt and dangers of the slaughterhouse work. But he also uncovers the cultural, economic and political impact offast food

By winning its first six games, with the first five away from home, the Bexley High School boys basketball team surely has been among the area's early season surprises.
By winning its first six games, with the first five away from home, the Bexley High School boys basketball team surely has been among the area's early season surprises.
The schedule worked out that way not only because of how the first two MSL-Ohio Division contests fell, but also because of the addition of two more regular-season games, which enabled coach Dave Gustin to schedule a tip-off tournament at London.
"It's a great start," Gustin said. "It wasn't as much of a grind as we thought. Of course, when you're winning, nothing is. I really think the kids handled it well. We've had to pull games off at the end."
The Lions, who went 7-15 a year ago, defeated Ready (48-44 on Nov. 30) and Yellow Springs (72-56 on Dec. 1) in the London Tip-Off Classic before winning at Circleville 51-29 on Dec. 4.
Bexley then opened league play with road wins over Licking Valley (55-48 on Dec. 8) and Lakewood (60-47 on Dec. 11) before beating Heath 60-36 in its home opener Dec. 14 in another league game.
Through five games, five players were averaging at least seven points in junior Sam Nolan (16.2), senior Will Gingery (10.4), sophomore Drew Elliott (8.8), senior Ethan Knisley (7.6) and senior Josh Hoffman (7.0).
"It's a different guy (leading the way) every night for us," Gustin said. "(Against Lakewood) we had four in double figures (as Gingery and Knisley scored 13 points apiece and Hoffman and Nolan both had 11 points). It will be someone different every game and that's the fun of this."
The ability of the Lions' guards to get into the paint has created open shots for Nolan and others.
"(The penetration) is leaving some of our perimeter guys open," Gustin said. "Nolan's able to catch and shoot quite successfully. Teams will pick up on that, and they have already, but he's able to score inside as well."
Any fears of not being able to handle another team's size were quelled in the first five games, but Gustin knows challenges loom.
"We have to negate the fact we don't have height, and we're trying to guard people away from the basket as well as we can and trying to keep people out of their offense," he said. "We're trying to do different things with different teams as far as guarding their bigs. We have some teams coming up that have pretty impressive bigs inside."
Gustin will juggle practice time with time away from the court for his players over the holiday break.
"Basically, once the holidays hit, we have some home games, which helps," he said. "You just get them in a couple hours to do some things. The good thing is you get some good video time over the holidays.
"We'll give them a day off here or there, and it really isn't much of a problem. The kids stay focused and we give them some time away."Girls basketball team looks for consistency
Following a 46-17 loss at Hartley on Dec. 3, girls basketball coach Jim Strode felt like his team had lost its edge.
"We're fighting to find consistency, there's no question there," he said. "The Hartley game sort of took the wind out of our sails a bit. We couldn't find anything offensively."
The trend continued in a 33-31 loss at Heath on Dec. 7.
"We took 17 more shots than (Heath) did and couldn't find the bucket," Strode said.
Bexley bounced back with a 67-29 home win over Lakewood on Dec. 11.
One key to the improvement on offense was the play of senior Lydia Lake, who was moved from point guard to shooting guard and scored 14 points against Lakewood, while senior Bri Stewart had 19.
Lake was averaging 12 points and Stewart was averaging 10 through five games.
Strode's goal is to make sure each player on the floor knows her job.
"We've defined roles with our kids in terms of who is a shooter and who is a scorer," he said. "Bri is a scorer. She goes hard to the hoop. With her in transition, if I were a defender, I'd be scared. She's going hard, she's coming at you and she's coming hard to the hoop. She's just going to score.
"Having her as a scorer, and having Lydia as a shooter, has helped success come."
Junior Sidney Woodford had shot a team-best 44 percent from the field through five games. She scored 11 points in a 58-48 win at Licking Heights in the opener Nov. 27.
"She hasn't taken a shot outside of the blocks," Strode said. "She's 5-foot-1 and she finds a way to rebound the ball. She has a knack for finding the ball and putting it up there."

Don't see the reason you want?
Escapism only works for a little while. It's fun to hear songs about the big coke orgy that Poison lived on a day-to-day basis, but sooner or later you have to jump in the shower and get ready for work. It's no surprise that grunge came along and reminded the general public that not all of us were invited to that party.
the-bass-master-general, Hollywood, CA, August 12, 2009
Poison's the type of band you ever really love or really hate. Nevertheless, C.C. DeVille leaving is where I'd say Poison went under. After that happened, Poison tried going in a more 'serious' direction and it didn't work out at all. In short, getting rid of C.C. led to Poison losing what made them Poison.

Esterase isozyme fingerprinting of the cassava germplasm collection held at CIAT

Ocampo Nahar., César Humberto; Hershey, Clair H.; Iglesias F., Carlos Ariel; Iwanaga, Masaru. 1993. Esterase isozyme fingerprinting of the cassava germplasm collection held at CIAT. In: Roca, William M.; Thro, Ann Marie (eds.). International Scientific Meeting Cassava Biotechnology Network (1, 1992, Cartagena de Indias, Colombia). Proceedings. Centro Internacional de Agricultura Tropical (CIAT), Cali, CO. p. 81-89. (Working document no. 123)

Esterase isozymes were chosen for fingerprinting CIAT`s cassava germplasm colleciton, because of (1) their technical repeatability; (2) high polymorphism (i.e., many alleles per locus); and (3) high numner of bands detectable in cassava clones (i.e., at least a few loci are expressed). A total of 4304 accessinos (about 86 of the total collection) has been analysed, and a total of 22 different bands were found. All bands have been coded and the existence of each band recorded in a computerized system. A total of 2146 different banding patterns were found among the 4304 accessions. A large numner (1407) of patterns were represented by only one clone, while the rest had 2 to 39 clones with the same banding patterns. The former group, 1407 clones, represents unique genotypes, because different banding patterns imply genetic differences. Those clones in the latter group may represent the possibility of their being duplicates. The presence of duplicates in a germplasm collection has serious implications for germplasm conservation, as well as for use in breeding programs. A systematic procedure for duplicate identification in the collection, through the combined use of morphological and esterase isozyme descriptor, has been developed and a progressive elimination of duplicates will be carried out. A tentative list of a cassava core collection, consisting of 630 accessions, has been developed. The SAS "FASTCLUS" procedure was used to select 51 accessions, representing the range of variation of isozyme patterns, for inclusion in the core collection. Thus, data of fingerprinting has been successfully used for identification of possible duplicates and development of a core collection. Data on esterase isozyme were also used to stydy the distribution of genetic diversity in a subsample of the collection.

Tax > Tax-Exempt Organizations
Tax-exempt organizations are a growing and increasingly important part of the U.S. economy. Primarily through our tax, health law, public law and policy, employee benefits and estate planning practices, Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP provides clients with a full range of legal services for a broad spectrum of nonprofit and other tax-exempt organizations, including:
- nonprofit hospitals and other types of tax-exempt health care organizations
- educational organizations and other public charities
- trade associations
- veterans and social welfare organizations
- religious organizations
- company foundations
- governmental instrumentalities
- Native American tribal governments
- private foundations and other planned giving vehicles
- public interest law firms.
Tax-exempt organizations are frequently faced with complex tax and regulatory problems that require careful attention from lawyers who know and understand the unique legal and business aspects of these organizations. As one of the largest law firms in the world, Akin Gump offers knowledge and experience in both the tax and non-tax issues affecting such organizations, including corporate governance, entity formation and transactions, labor and employment, litigation, antitrust, government contracts, public law and policy, general business and finance, real estate and employee benefits. Whether your organization is a small charity or a major NGO, we have the experience and resources to assist you in fulfilling your nonprofit mission in a cost-effective and efficient manner.
Our tax-exempt clients often seek our assistance when entering into corporate transactions with third parties and internal reorganizations. Our lawyers help tax-exempt clients manage the complex tax, corporate, antitrust and other regulatory and legal aspects of acquisitions, dispositions, joint ventures and other affiliation arrangements with for-profit and other tax-exempt entities; lease agreements; the sale or purchase of property, business and governance relationships with subsidiaries and affiliates; and other complex transactions. We also advise nonprofit organizations in structuring their investments to avoid or minimize the impact of the unrelated business income tax and to satisfy their other business and legal concerns.
We represent various Roman Catholic men's and women's religious institutes in litigation, real estate, corporate and tax matters, and, over the past 14 years, we have advised more than a dozen of these clients on the development and implementation of provincial consolidations and corporate restructurings in the United States. These restructurings are designed to help the institutes have a civil structure that reflects their vision, provides maximum protection for foundational assets and control of operational liabilities, clarifies civil legal relationships with sponsored ministries and other institutions that are consistent with the institutes' evolving demographics and protects federal, state and local tax exemptions and lay employee benefit plans.
Many of our tax-exempt clients also rely on us to help them comply with various federal, state and local laws and manage their day-to-day legal affairs. On their behalf, we routinely form nonprofit corporations and charitable trusts; help obtain federal, state and local tax rulings or exemption determinations; provide tax, corporate and affiliate structuring; assist with grant agreements; and provide needed legal advice on other legal, operational and compliance matters regarding charitable solicitation and planned giving.
Nonprofit organizations, their members and donors, Congress, government regulators and even lenders are increasingly focusing on the importance of good corporate governance at nonprofits, and we have significant experience advising these entities on member and affiliate structures; the composition, duties and policies of the board of directors; the composition, role and function of board committees; and the implementation of best governance practices.
We also provide our clients with ongoing counsel on tax compliance issues, including federal, state and local taxation, unrelated business income tax and tax-exemption planning and compliance, and tax information returns; private inurement and "intermediate sanctions" rules; federal tax implications of lobbying by charities, social welfare organizations and trade associations; the special tax rules applicable to company and other private foundations; and executive compensation arrangements.
Our public law and policy practice has an impressive record representing and advocating for tax-exempt clients before Congress and federal departments and agencies. The public law and policy practice also advises on trade associations and social welfare organizations regarding PAC formation, Federal Election Commission regulations and compliance with ethics and gift rules as well as federal and state lobbying registration and reporting requirements.
Our lawyers also counsel nonprofit organizations on a broad range of labor and employment and employee benefits matters, including ERISA, federal and state wage and hour laws, employment discrimination, day-to-day employment matters, health and welfare plans and various tax-qualified and non-qualified retirement plans.
We also have extensive experience counseling clients on financial issues unique to nonprofit organizations, including tax-exempt financing, charitable gift annuities, endowment policies and other fundraising issues, and grant-making and other nonprofit activities in the United States and foreign countries. We also provide U.S. tax and securities advice to a collective investment fund managed for the benefit of certain related religious institutes around the world, and to the General Administration of one of the largest Roman Catholic men's congregations.
Tax controversy
Akin Gump also has significant experience in representing tax-exempt organizations in federal, state and local tax controversy matters, including successfully representing various tax-exempt organizations in IRS examinations (from limited issue inquiries to comprehensive Coordinated Examination Program (CEP) audits).

'The stress will be blown away'
스트레스 is often combined with the verb 날아가다 (blow away).
스트레스를 '한방에 (one shot)' 날리다 is also very useful expression (blow the stress away with one shot, or once and for all)
1) 운동을 하세요. 스트레스가 날아갈꺼예요. Please exercise. Your stress will be gone away.
2) 스트레스를 어떻게 한방에 날릴 수 있을까? How can I blow my stress away once and for all?
3) 스트레스를 날리는 방법을 가르쳐주세요. Please let me know how to blow away the stree.
The Youtube clip is a very comical commercial of a tour company called 여행박사 (Dr. Tour) in Korea.
I think this commercial is really well made because it does not just say 'Jump on a plane to go on a trip'. It shows the mundane everyday life that people usually want to get away from and it's easy for people to relate to.
It has multiple series and this one that I'm sharing is to promote a trip to Hokkaido Japan.
This series shows many useful and everyday expressions like,
"진짜 왜 이래요?"
"엄마, 울어?"
"이해가 안되네"
"여행한번 보내드려"
"이게 딱이겠군"
"잘 봐"
"스트레스가 날아갈꺼야"
Just as a side information, 차승원 (Seung-won, Cha) is a famous actor in Korea who became more popular these days after his appearance in 삼시세끼 (Three meals), very popular reality show by tvN. He's very comic and down-to-earth and most importantly, handsome with great body! :)

Commercial Bed Bugs Pest Control
Keep Your Patrons Safe and Happy
Bed bugs have returned to both the professional and residential worlds and they are determined to stay. Bed bugs don't care if a business or a residence has good or poor sanitation, and they will infest any area they possibly can. Bed bugs at one time were nearly eliminated in the U.S., but they have made a recent comeback as they have become immune to different types of insecticides. Because of this immunity, many of the insecticide treatments that pest control companies use simply don't work anymore.
However, Mathis is different from those other pest control companies because we use the most cutting-edge insecticide treatments that are developed as the result of extensive testing and research. We use these test and research results to create a custom bed bug elimination program that is tailored to your needs and will be effective against those bed bugs that have developed immunity to other types of insecticides. We have had success using these insecticides in many different residence types, from condominiums to single-family homes.
Mathis' Bed Bug Program
Call us the moment you suspect a bed bug problem and we will come examine your residence. Our experienced bed bug experts will begin insecticide treatment as soon as they positively identify a bed bug infestation. They will also provide you with information about common bed bug behaviors and steps you can take to help eradicate them from your home, including:
- Using the newest bed bug products to treat your box springs and mattresses
- Treating your dressers, nightstands, headboards, beds and bed frames
- Treating electrical outlets, carpeting, baseboards, and other areas where bed bugs like to burrow and hide themselves from view
- Treating behind mirrors, shelving or pictures
- Taking preventative steps to keep bed bugs from spreading throughout your home
Should I treat for them right now?
If you are experiencing any emotional or physical distress from the presence of bed bugs in your home, you should take care of the problem before it gets worse. Bed bugs can cause physical welts on the body that can become itchy or painful. They also reproduce rapidly if they are given time to multiply, which can make it more difficult to control them. If you think you have a bed bug problem, call Mathis today for your thorough bed bug inspection.
Just call Mathis for your in-depth bed bug inspection today.

Baby Kate {Portrait of a Tiny New Yorker}
Here are some pictures of our darling baby Kate. I tried to be as laid-back as possible about getting newborn portraits of our little one, and both times I did a little shoot, neither were planned. I probably should have devoted more time to capturing more portraits, but you know what they say about the shoe-maker's children...
Welcome, baby Kate.

One Dead Following Home Explosion in Ewing
One person has died following an explosion at a housing complex in Ewing, authorities said. The blast, which sent smoke into the air that could be seen for miles, also injured seven utility workers.
The individual who was killed in the blast was found outside the dwelling, but officials didn't know if the victim lived in the home that blew up. The victim's name and age were not released.
In an email earlier Tuesday afternoon, PSE&G said contractors working at 28 Crockett Lane damaged a gas line. A utility crew was making repairs in the South Fork development when there was an "ignition" causing the explosion. PSE&G employees were hospitalized with non-life threatening injuries according to the email.
Matt Gaffney of PSE&G said during the late afternoon press conference that the gas line was damaged but "did not rupture." He did not elaborate on the exact cause of the explosion. The Board of Public Utilities is helping with the investigation, Gaffney said.
Lt. Ron Lunetta of the Ewing Police Dept. said Unit 28 was completely destroyed. He said there are no known injuries to residents but rescue crews continue to search the rubble. Residents of buildings that caught fire following the explosion were taken to the West Trenton Fire House on Upper Ferry Road according to CBS Philly
A spokesman at Capital Regional Medical Center said two of the people injured apparently suffered traumatic injuries and the others were sent to its other two hospital campuses.
Several adjoining units on Corbett Lane were affected by the explosion according to NBC 10 which described the scene as a war zone with insulation scattered all over the place.
Smoke from the explosion were visible from more than 20 miles away.
A New Jersey 101.5 listener in an email wrote that the windows of her 93-year-old mother's home were blown out and pictures fell off the wall. Crockett Lane resident Marsha Brown, described it to 6 ABC as a "huge explosion, like a bomb. A house was in flames, gas workers were laying out with legs broken, arms broken, gashes."
The manager of the nearby Mountain View Golf Course told NBC 10 "We thought it was a plane crash" as their building shook. The television station reports that fire crews from Burlington, Mercer and Bucks county have responded to the scene.
Ewing Township Public Schools posted on the website that students at the nearby Lore School, located a half-mile from the fire scene on Westwood Drive are safe and are being dismissed on their regular schedule. Students who cannot be dropped off safely due to closed roads will be returned to the school and parents notified.
The ramps from I-95 to Bear Tavern Road at Exit 2 have been closed, according to NJ Fast Traffic.
The Community Blood Council of New Jersey has put the call out for blood donations as hospitals treating the injured have called in "stat" blood orders. The Blood Council, located on Parkside Avenue in Ewing is accepting donations until 8 p.m.
This is a breaking story. Check back for additional details.

Did Milo see what I saw in the faces of those sitting at the tables in Meilori's?
Eyes haunted by past choices, voices shedding truth like skin or lovers. Maybe. Maybe not.
We were both English teachers, engaging in sentimental tango's of Us vs. Them.
the magic of creating worlds, pushing against the boundaries of what was and was not possible in publishing.
I smiled at him across the table:
"Your book, YAKUZA TERRITORY, comes out this Friday, doesn't it?
Milo nodded.
"Yes, and I am pretty proud of it. It is the 3rd time I've used Charlie Madison, a private detective, as my hero."
I said,
" In Girl of Great Price, he was hired to track down a kidnapped little girl with an ability too bizarre to believe.
In Immaterial Evidence, he was on the trail of an invisible criminal with revenge in his sights. While those two novellas were more like Blade Runner meets The Maltese Falcon,
the third installment, Yakuza Territory, is like Die Hard meets Assault on Precinct 13. "
Milo smiled, "You've read my books?"
"Certainly, but Amazon, or DayStar, keeps taking down my reviews."
Milo paled,
"DayStar is just a fictional character, right?"
I sighed, "Yes, just like Sherlock Holmes ... who is sitting at that far table chastising Benedict Cumberbatch."
I said, "You should thank Benedict. Before he strolled in, Holmes was about to chastise your Charlie Madison for failing to notice the details when he first walked into that fateful police precinct."
Milo smiled, "Charlie was one of the first characters I created at age 15. He's grown deeper since then, but he is still all too human."
The ghost of Mark Twain settled into the chair besides a startled Milo and asked, "What writers inspire you? Besides me, of course."
Milo said, "Ray Bradbury inspired me to write and submit a short story every week since 2011.
Robert Heinlein's rules for writers have also inspired me to keep my work on the market until it sells and to dive right into new projects in the interim."
Whiskey glass in one hand, cigar in the other, the ghost of Ernest Hemingway sat down heavily on the other side of Milo. "Please tell me you are not one of those NaNo's this month."
Milo said, "No, but I do have a daily goal:
After my day job (teaching junior high English), I try to write 1,000 words of fresh material in addition to ongoing edits, revisions, and resubmissions.
On bad days, I churn out about 500 words. On great days, it's closer to 5,000. But I'm content with 1,000 a day."
Hemingway glowered at Milo. "500 words daily was my usual output."
Victor Standish, playing the trumpet on stage next to Quincy Coleman, called out. "Everyone has their own limits, sir."
"I enjoyed Under the Dome by Stephen King; somehow, he was able to keep me reading a thousand-page novel without even realizing it. He's a master of suspense and escalating conflict.
I also started reading (and still am—I read at a slug's pace) Perdido Street Station by China Mieville, which has got to be the most imaginative, unique, and utterly cool novel I've ever read."
Hemingway smiled smugly and snorted up at Victor, "Ha! Seems you weren't good enough either."
As Victor lost himself in his music, I asked Milo, "What piece of advice would you give writers for the rest of this bruised year?"
" Believe in yourself, believe in your work, and cool stuff will happen. Write often, submit often, and join Write1Sub1. Come for the challenge, stay for the community. You'll be glad you did!"
Milo looked around. "I really like Sam McCord's adventures. Is he anywhere around?"
A voice of velvet ice murmured behind him, "You are so lucky you mentioned you liked my husband's tales."
Milo looked over to me. "You did warn me about this place."

Providing a first-class oral surgery experience is my top priority.Meet Dr. Falender
I was having problems with my teeth, and I was getting ready to lose a bridge, and I just told my dentist, "I just don't like false teeth." And he suggested that I look into the implants, and he worked with Dr. Falender. It's a permanent denture; it is connected to my bo....
At Indianapolis Oral Surgery & Dental Implant Center, our friendly and highly skilled staff is happy to assist you in any way possible to ensure you receive the optimal outcome following treatment. Dr. Lawrence G. Falender, DDS is both a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon and doctor of dental surgery, making him your best option when seeking treatment for diseases, injuries, and defects of oral and facial structures. Indianapolis Oral Surgery & Dental Implant Center offers the full scope of procedural services and treatments, ranging from dental implant placement to oral pathology treatment, wisdom teeth removal, and corrective jaw surgery. Our training, expertise, and commitment to patient satisfaction ensures that you receive your ideal outcome when working with Dr. Falender and his dedicated team at Indianapolis Oral Surgery & Dental Implant Center.
Dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. This revolutionary prosthesis is a small, medical-grade titanium post that is inserted into the jaw and supports the replacement crown. Dental implants are an excellent restorative option because they allow patients to maintain the health of their adjacent teeth, increase dental stability, decrease bone loss, and enhance their smile. This long-term solution can last a lifetime if you take care of the dental implant and assist in keeping your mouth healthy. After the procedure is complete, and your surgical sites have healed, you will be able to easily care for your dental implants just like your natural teeth. If you would like to find out if you are a candidate for dental implant surgery, contact Indianapolis Oral Surgery & Dental Implant Center and schedule a consultation today!
Wisdom teeth, or third molars, develop and grow into the very back of the jaw during late adolescence or early adulthood. Although this is completely normal, the average adult mouth is not large enough to accommodate these extra teeth and requires their removal. If left untreated, wisdom teeth can cause complications like chronic pain, impaction, and potential disease. To combat these problems, studies have shown that early evaluation and treatment result in a superior outcome for the patient. Through an oral examination and an x-ray of the mouth and jaw, Dr. Falender can evaluate the position of the wisdom teeth and make a professional recommendation for treatment. At Indianapolis Oral Surgery & Dental Implant Center, you will receive a detailed consultation, prompt treatment, and an optimal surgical outcome. Call us today to schedule your appointment.
The All-on-4® Treatment Concept is a revolutionary solution for patients who have lost or are in the process of losing all of their upper or lower teeth. This treatment method restores the look, strength, and function of the patient�s mouth with four permanent implants that are fixed to a replacement denture. Prior to the All-on-4® Treatment Concept, patients can expect to undergo consultations to allow Dr. Falender to gather information for a comprehensive treatment plan. After a brief healing period, your final permanent denture is placed! At Indianapolis Oral Surgery & Dental Implant Center, our patients experience numerous benefits from choosing the All-on-4® Ttreatment Concept for dental restoration. If you would like to schedule a consultation appointment or have any questions about the All-on-4® Treatment Concept, please call our office at 317-900-4535.

What is global warming?
The long-term gradual rise in average global temperature due to increased concentration of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere which traps the long-wavelength energies emitted from heated objects on earth surface is known as global warming. In other words, we can say that an enhanced form of natural greenhouse effect over time causes the global warming. The average surface temperature of earth increased by about 0.8 ⁰C in last hundred years but 66% of that increased temperature was resulted in just last three decades. This observation confirms that a drastic change in climate is an important concern to our daily life now and the main reason of this occurrence is probably the reason of constant increase in GHGs in atmosphere which must be minimized through reducing the burning of fossil fuel and deforestation.
More than 300 scientists from 160 research groups in 48 countries contributed to a report to confirm that earth is getting warmer and how warmer was it in last 50 years. They tell about 10 key climate indicators that evidence the fact that earth is getting warmer.

Oscar Wilde
The Harlot's House - Poem by Oscar Wilde
We caught the tread of dancing feet,
We loitered down the moonlit street,
And stopped beneath the harlot's house.
Inside, above the din and fray,
We heard the loud musicians play
The "Treues Liebes Herz" of Strauss.
Like strange mechanical grotesques,
Making fantastic arabesques,
The shadows raced across the blind.
We watched the ghostly dancers spin
To sound of horn and violin,
Like black leaves wheeling in the wind.
Like wire-pulled automatons,
Slim silhouetted skeletons
Went sidling through the slow quadrille.
They took each other by the hand,
And danced a stately saraband;
Their laughter echoed thin and shrill.
Sometimes a clockwork puppet pressed
A phantom lover to her breast,
Sometimes they seemed to try to sing.
Sometimes a horrible marionette
Came out, and smaoked its cigarette
Upon the steps like a live thing.
Then, turning to my love, I said,
"The dead are dancing with the dead,
The dust is whirling with the dust."
But she--she heard the violin,
And left my side, and entered in:
Love passed into the house of lust.
Then suddenly the tune went false,
The shadows wearied of the waltz,
The shadows ceased to wheel and whirl.
And down the long and silent street,
The dawn, with silver-sandalled feet,
Crept like a frightened girl.
