Donegal’s 1992 All-Ireland winning footballers will mark the 20th anniversary of their magnificent triumph by staging a charity banquet on Saturday, August 18th, in the Abbey Hotel, Donegal Town.
Details of the event were announced at a launch in the Finn Valley Centre in Stranorlar last evening. The three charities who will benefit from the banquet are the Donegal Hospice, Donegal Living Links and the Alzheimer Society Donegal branch.
Speaking at the launch, Tony Boyle, who came up with the idea with former playing colleagues, Donal Reid and Joyce McMullan, said the initial intention was to meet up for a social gathering.
“It’s an opportunity for us to get together after 20 years. Most of the guys have children who weren’t about 20 years ago. We’re planning to have a meet and greet session earlier in the day. Michael O Muircheartaigh will be our host and the Sam Maguire will be there,” he said.
Joyce McMullan said that when they decided to organise a function to mark the 20th anniversary, they thought it would be nice to do something to help the less well off in society.
“All of us here have been affected in some way by sickness or ill health,” he said.
Patricia Wilson of Living Links, said that Living Links might not be as well known as the other charities. The group was set up in 2008 and she recently took on the role recently of PRO. The group helps families who are bereaved by suicide.
“Our main aim is to train volunteers to help those who have been bereaved by suicide,” she explained, adding that suicide still isn’t a subject that is talked about a lot.
Donegal Hospice representative, Grace Boyle, said she was delighted to be associated with the event and to be involved with the other charities.
“We are in a position now where we provide up to 20 per cent of the running costs of the Hospice which amounts to around 650,000 euro a year and this is paid off every quarter,” she said.
Alastair McKinney, from the Donegal branch of the Alzheimer Society of Ireland, recalled the great atmosphere around the county when Donegal won their only Al-Ireland title in 1992. He spoke of the importance of the supporters to the team back then, and stressed that the support for families who have members with Alzheimer’s was extremely important.
“We provide 75,000 hours of care every year and have to raise 200,000 euro to do that. We are helping about 200 families, but there are 2,000 families who need out support. In 25 years time, that will increase to 5,000 families,” he said.
MC for the launch, Charlie Collins of Highland Radio, said that charities are getting things tight because of the current financial climate.
“The idea of all the players coming together again after 20 years was fantastic. What happened in 1992 will never be forgotten for many reasons. It’s never happened before and it has never happened since. It was a huge occasion,” he commented.
Lending his support to the event, Donegal County Board Chairman, PJ McGowan, thanked and commended Tony, Joyce and Donal for their initiative.
The county chairman assured the organizers of the full support of the board as the clock ticks down to the big weekend in August.
“I’m looking forward to enjoying a fabulous occasion,” he added.
Tickets for the banquet are available from the Abbey Hotel.

The data center market in Russia continues to grow. One needs to look only at the considerable increase in commissioned facilities to find evidence of this. Consumers are no longer impressed by data centers spanning several thousand square meters, containing 1000 or more racks—these have become de rigeur. According to data provided by Datacenter Dynamics, for the last two years the Russian data-center market is ahead of India, China and Brazil in terms of total investment. Similarly, based on recent construction data from the same period, Russia places second only to Brazil from BRICS nations in terms of total area. It should be noted that recent trends reveal that more high reliability data center sites are being developed in Russia, and there is good reason to believe that this will continue for the next three to five years.
Despite these facts, it is too early to speak about a mature market for data centers in Russia. It would be more accurate to say that, at the present moment, the Russian data-center market is in a stage of active growth and formation: New services are being commissioned, new technologies introduced, new business models developed. Practically all of the market players announced plans to design and build new facilities, mostly Tier III level.
The composition of commercial data-centers users has remained relatively constant in Russia as well. The majority are big service-providers, system integrators, suppliers of various network content and also corporate clients, including banks and other financial institutions, who need reserve sites for information storage. Moreover, it is clear that many corporate clients still do not trust commercial data centers for direct data transfer, so their interest is mainly in reserve capacities. And while Russian government organizations are becoming more information-driven every day, and the proportion of commercial data-center business from governmental sources is increasing, the growth is much slower than expected.
At present the most dynamic growth area in the data center market is in the sphere of IT outsourcing based on cloud servers. This set up employs consolidated server solutions with cloud software that provides multiple clients access to different information architecture systems in one server cabinet. This is a trend in the corporate and public service sector in IT that will only grow with time.
From the point of view of commercial real estate, data-centers market development is similar to the office real estate market several years ago. At first there was active growth, then flattening out, during which occupation rates increased. Later, when most of the areas and resources for data-centers are used, the development is more about intensive usage of existing areas than the development of new ones. Thus, the primary aspect is the possibility of modernizations, which should be envisaged in the design from the very beginning. The engagement of consulting company that has experience in this sphere is essential for the success of data-center "densification," as all the works will be performed in close proximity to critical equipment. Russian operators of data centers that plan development of new capacities shall choose solutions that allow for future modification without stopping the operations of data-centers, besides savings at the construction stage due to phasing.
It seems likely that the further development of the data-center market will be driven by global patterns of available capital, construction costs, and the operational expenses of data centers. Presently, owners of almost all data centers try to squeeze the maximum output from their facilities. This process of "squeezing" forces data center developers to search for the most effective solutions, not only for engineering but for IT infrastructure as well. To be able to achieve the best possible results, one has to work with the best possible consultants.

You and your experience matters to you, the people in your experience also matter to you and I imagine that as you have been reading this website you are beginning to realise that everything "out there" is actually within yourself and that the only place you need to look is within yourself and that having been inspired by this website has lead you to this page to take action for yourself.
I know personally that sometimes we resist taking action because it feels uncomfortable, dangerous, and a host of other feelings which seem to say "this isn't for you" or something similar and they prevent people from making a clear choice, if the only answer you have available to you is "NO" how can you choose?
There's no right or wrong here, it all comes down to personal preference. My preference is the latter, doing what presents and I can say from experience that once I started saying YES to things that showed up my life started to flow with ease and any resistance to anything broke down and occasionally I'd start saying NO, and watched as the resistance and struggle started to increase again. And I've found that the things that are persistently brought to my attention have always been worth investing in.
During a Divine Integration Retreat in December 2010, I was invited to talk about my views about the source of world peace, where it comes from and how we'll see it in the world.
We all have blind spots, things that are invisible to us because they're right in our faces day in day out and so they become invisible.
I know this feeling, I've had plenty of it things that were stuck and just were not progressing no matter how much effort I put into it.
But I have found that having a personal Coach, someone who isn't in your map of the world, can help you discover the things that are invisible to you so that you can move through it with ease and effortlessness.
Expand your horizons and the amount of Love, peace and joy you experience in your life.
Increase the quality of relationships, learn techniques to resolve any dispute or recurring patterns of disruption and deepen your connection.
Experience the fullness of yourself, find out when you uncover your hidden innate formless identity, Integrate with the formless mind that powers and guides stars, galaxies and planets.

I got the email a month ago about the Father’s Day special on the Moth Radio Hour. My story “The Detour,” would be featured, it said.
I wasn’t sure exactly what to feel.
At first, it brought the heart-pounding, adrenaline-pumping, and rubbery-feeling of post performance that I had five years ago when I got up on that Moth Stage. The story slam was incredible. Packed house–they laughed, they gasped, they erupted in applause. I’ve never felt anything like it.
But I also felt the familiar nausea that comes with over-sharing, especially when it comes to my religious beliefs. I will tell you about embarrassing bodily functions all day, but Mormonism–please, don’t ask.
This is also, by far, the worst Father’s Day present for my poor attention-adverse dad. And my ex-boyfriend–well, c’mon. I would be heartless not to worry about him a little, too.
So I am so happy and pleased and feel like my storytelling chops have received a hearty slap on the back. I want to shout it from the rooftops.
AND then go crawl under a rock.
…and under that rock will be my motherinlaw who will hug me and again, tell me what a great writer I am and that she loves me.

Summary: PerspectiveS introduces dynamic layers of behavior into Squeak.
PerspectiveS introduces dynamic layers of behavior into the Squeak environment. It was inspired by the layers idea of the PIE system. The main difference between the two systems is that while PIE simultaneously offers alternative designs to developers within their development environment, PerspectiveS allows design alternatives or variations to coexist concurrently at run-time. Such alternatives or variations are active depending on context information. PerspectiveS builds on AspectS.

A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket equipped with landing legs is seen in this image from the private spaceflight company's website. SpaceX will attempt to land the first stage of its Falcon 9 rocket on an ocean platform on Feb. 8, 2015 after launching the Deep Space Climate Observatory, a space weather satellite, for NASA and NOAA.
The private spaceflight company SpaceX will attempt the ultimate space double-header today (Feb. 8) with the launch of a space weather observatory followed by an ambitious rocket landing attempt on a floating platform in the Atlantic Ocean.
A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket will launch the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) into orbit from Florida's Cape Canaveral Air Force Station at 6:10 p.m. EST (2310 GMT). You can watch the SpaceX rocket launch live online beginning at 3:30 p.m. EST (2030 GMT), courtesy of NASA TV.
If all goes well, once the launch is complete SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket will attempt to land on "Just Follow the Instructions" — an autonomous spaceport drone ship parked about 370 miles (595 kilometers off the Florida coast. It is the second time that SpaceX is attempting to land a Falcon 9 rocket first stage on the drone ship. A Jan. 10 attempt ended with the booster landing hard, smashing into the landing platform and exploding. SpaceX CEO and founder Elon Musk said that try was "Close, but no cigar."
SpaceX's autonomous spaceport drone ship, called "Just Read the Instructions," is designed to be an offshore landing pad for the company's Falcon 9 rocket. The drone ship is named after the sentient colony ship from the novels of science fiction author Iain M. Banks.
"We ran out of hydraulic fluid shortly after the landing burn started, so it was close," Hans Koenigsmann, SpaceX's vice president for mission assurance, told reporters on Saturday of the January attempt. "I feel like last time was really an enormous accomplishment."
This time, SpaceX hopes to do better, but Koenigsmann still put the chances of success for the novel test at just 50 percent.
The 14-story Falcon 9 rocket first stage has been loaded with 50 percent more hydraulic fluid for the four grid steering fins that control the booster during its hypersonic atmospheric re-entry. But the rocket will also be coming in twice as fast and landing further offshore than the one used in the Jan. 10 landing attempt due to the nature of the DSCOVR mission, Koenigsmann added.
"We hope it will go well this time," he said.
The Deep Space Climate Observatory space weather satellite is prepared for its Feb. 8, 2015 launch atop a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket in Cape Canaveral, Florida. The satellite will is an early-warning system for solar storms, but will also observe the Earth.
While SpaceX has been pursing rocket landing and reusability technology in the hopes of lowering to costs of spaceflight, Koenigsmann stressed that today's landing attempt is not the company's main objective. Successfully sending the DSCOVR space weather satellite into orbit is the primary mission.
For the DSCOVR satellite, today's launch will cap 17 years of development, setbacks and ultimately resurrection. The refrigerator-sized space weather observatory's mission — which aims to serve as an early-warning system for major solar storms — is a joint effort NASA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the U.S. Air Force.
The origins of DSCOVR date back to 1998, when the mission (then called Triana) was spearheaded by then-Vice President Al Gore to beam live views of the Earth from space for scientific research and educational inspiration. But in 2001, after political disputes over the mission and a change in presidential administrations, the mission was mothballed and the Triana satellite (already completed) packed away in storage.
NASA, NOAA and the U.S. Air Force resurrected the mission in 2009 to serve as a space weather early-warning outpost nearly 1 million miles in deep space at a waypoint between the Earth and sun known as Lagrange point 1. The total cost of the DSCOVR mission, including the earlier work on Triana, is about $340 million, with the planned two-year run of just DSCOVR expected to account for $104.8 million of that budget.
DSCOVR will serve as a partner to NASA's long-lived Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE), a satellite that has been performing a similar mission in the same region since 1997.
"DSCOVR will serve as our tsunami buoy in deep space," Tom Berger, the director of NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center in Boulder, Colorado, said in a press conference Saturday.
Severe solar flares and sun storms known as coronal mass ejections can interfere with aviation services, satellite navigation and even power grids on Earth, space weather scientists said.
"We are dependent upon a reliable source of early-warning and advance notice," added Stephen Volz, assistant administrator of the NOAA Satellite and Information Service in Silver Spring, Maryland.
In addition to studying the sun, DSCOVR will also fulfill part of its initial design by observing the Earth from Lagrange 1 and beaming back a steady stream of images of our home planet from space. The spacecraft should take a photo of Earth ever two hours, with the images expected to be available to scientists and the next day.
"They'll be posted on a website for the public to see," said Steven Clarke, director of NASA's Joint Agency Satellite Division. "I think it will be an inspiration for people to see the sunlit disk of the Earth."
The DSCOVR spacecraft is expected to last at least two years working alongside ACE, and could potentially last longer depending on its fuel supply, NOAA officials said.

As a Committee we investigated and priced a number of possible locations including various Conference venues in Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Phillipines and Singapore, all being geographically central to Asia. After careful consideration it was clear that Indonesia was by far the most cost effective location. The Organising Committee wanted a residential Conference at a hotel that could specifically cater for our needs and where all delegates could maximise their time to network.
The Conference is organised by an Organising Committee made up of market participants who give of their own time to make the conference happen (for more information please see the Committee page).
Since its inception in 2010, the Organising Committee has held the view that its members must come from a broad spread of disciplines including underwriting, adjusting and various specialist service providers.
It is a Conference that is organised by insurance practitioners on a not-for-profit basis, non-commercial and without sponsorship such that it remains a neutral platform.
The Asian offshore energy insurance and reinsurance market has grown considerably in the past decade. It now offers sufficient capacity such that entire risks are being produced, broked, underwritten and claim adjusted within Asia Pacific. We now have a stand alone ‘energy’ market and there needs to be a forum where all parties can come together to network, build new relationships and better understand how the global market is evolving. There is no better venue to discuss how best to meet the expanding needs of both the highly dynamic insurance and energy industries.
Representatives of any Company that has an interest in the Asian energy sector and specifically including buyers of offshore/upstream energy insurance for risks in Asia.
Now in our 9th year, the Conference provides a neutral, and informal venue to encourage the exchange of ideas and information between offshore energy market specialists and participants. With over 1,000 delegates in the last seven years, the Conference also provides an environment to build and foster relationships. We encourage and facilitate a lively debate of current market conditions and drivers as well as insight from experts on the various topics on the agenda and more.
Name cards for all attendees shall be provided at registration and the Organising Committee would appreciate all delegates wearing these throughout the Conference.
What are the Visas Requirements for Bali?
The position on Indonesian tourist/short term entry visas and Visa On Arrival for Bali is constantly changing. As a guideline please refer to the current details published by the Bali Tourism Board at http://www.balitourismboard.org/immigration.html.
Please consult your nearest Indonesian Embassy or Indonesian Consulate to confirm requirements and arrange visas prior to travel (if required).
Please make sure that your passport has the appropriate validity from the day of travel and that you have a full page free in your passport so that there is space for the visa sticker and stamp (if required).
As soon as possible. September/October is peak season and flights are often fully booked.
Check in time for the hotel is 2pm. The hotel will endeavor to ensure early check in for delegates who arrive earlier. In the event this is not possible delegates will be able to leave their luggage with the hotel concierge and explore the hotel grounds, restaurants and facilities.
Check out will be midday on 28th September 2018 unless otherwise arranged with the Hotel at the delegates own convenience and cost.

BRUSSELS -- European Union ambassadors have agreed to endorse visa liberalization for Georgia, a key step toward visa-free travel for Georgians to the Schengen zone.
Meeting in Brussels on February 22, the ambassadors from EU member states also agreed to endorse a visa-suspension mechanism, which has been drafted as a condition for the implementation of visa-liberalization agreements for Georgia and Ukraine.
It is now expected that ministers from all 28 EU member states will rubber-stamp both items, most likely on February 27.
EU diplomats have told RFE/RL that they believe Georgians will be able to travel to Schengen Area countries by the end of March and that the suspension mechanism will enter into force at the same time.
The European Commission recommended visa-free travel for Georgian citizens in December 2015, but the proposal first met with skepticism among some EU members -- most notably Germany, which voiced concern over crimes allegedly committed there by Georgian criminal gangs.
The European Parliament overwhelmingly backed visa liberalization for Georgia in a vote earlier this month. Last week it endorsed the suspension mechanism, which is designed to ensure that visa-free arrangements can be suspended quickly in certain cases, such as an upsurge in baseless asylum applications or imminent security threats posed by third-country nationals.
Diplomats will meet in Brussels on February 28 to discuss visa liberalization for Ukraine. EU diplomats expect that visa liberalization for Ukraine will enter into force in June.

I think the hardest part of mothering is learning when to let go.
Something I'm not very good at.
I do think there has got to come a time when we have to let them sink or swim and trust and pray that they will make the right decisions based on what they've been taught.
I will say, it sure is hard to sit on the sidelines of their lives when things aren't going quite the way they are supposed to. When you know, deep in your heart, that they are making a mistake but also knowing that the best way for them to learn is to fall.
And hope they'll pick themselves up and figure it all out.
I was supposed to meet an older, wiser friend for tea this week but the flu that has been sweeping through my little house swept me away too, so she brilliantly suggested 'tea by phone'.
So there we sat, each in our own homes...me with my tea and a mexican pastry (that a former student of M's brought to him...yum!) and my dayquil and kleenex, and had a long and lively chat by phone.
I haven't left the house in 3 days...in fact, I am sort of convinced that there are piles of snow outside my little house and I can't go out.
Not likely in southern California, but one can dream.
You want piles of snow??? Check out the photos on my blog. I should upload a few quick video clips, too. We have more than enough snow to go around. After all, it was the Snowpocalypse!

When you’ve been going to your local grocery store for a few years, you do notice when new variety of products start to pop up consistently.
As New Zealand experienced another record high migration, we’re starting to see how retail stores are adapting to the changing faces of customers.
Meet Harry Chawla – new owner operator of Pak’n’Save in Mount Albert since May, is making his impact by stocking up wider range of ethnic foods.
I was quite impressed when I was able to purchase Mama noodles from Thailand and No Brand Butter Cookies from Korea.
But what caught my attention was actually witnessing first hand Harry’s leadership style which is leading from the front and coaching staff with positive motivation.
Harry didn’t realise this, but I followed him walking the floor and showing staff how to stack the fruits and vegetables and remove the bad ones from the display. He also gave staff a pat on the back when giving words of encouragement, and even asks customers for feedback in person on the new batch of nuts.
Harry fascinates me not just as a smart businessman, but also a migrant exhibiting people leadership that is inclusive and brings his staff along the journey. When a minority group is showing inclusive leadership, I coin them reverse-inclusive leadership.
My discovery of Harry was purely incidental and so I decided to have a chat with him.
Harry: My name is Harry Chawla, I came to NZ in 2000 as a student and did my Postgraduate Diploma in Business. While studying I started my Foodstuffs career in 2000 working at New World Hillcrest as a Produce Assistant. I worked my way up and in 2010 I made the move to New World Brookfield where I worked as the Store Manager.
I used to work 120 hours a week in my uni holidays. When I finished my studies, I used to start work in New World at 4am and finished at 5pm and would then work in a restaurant at night doing dishes and everything from 6 pm to 11 pm. I couldn’t speak very good English when I came which put me little bit behind.
With my focus firmly on store ownership, I embarked on the Foodstuffs Management Development programme and graduated from the programme in 2007. Following this, I did the Leadership Development programme and graduated in 2010. In 2011 I was awarded a Trainee Operator Scholarship.
In February 2012, I took ownership of my first brand new store, New World Metro Queen Street. In April 2014 I made the move to another brand new Store New World Kumeu, which I owned till May 2017. In June 2017 I took ownership of Pak’n’Save Mount Albert.
I am married to Sheetal and I have two children: Tej, who is twelve, and Aysha, who is seven.
Eric: What prompted you to buy Pak’n’Save Mount Albert?
Harry: I love Challenges and after 5 years in NW, I wanted a big challenge which would excite me and also set me up for next 10 years.
Eric: What were your first observations when you took over and what was your first 100 day plan?
Harry: When I took over Pak’n’Save Mount Albert, I knew it is going to be a challenge. There were a lot of staff who had been here a long time and they were stuck in their old ways. I knew that I would need to show them my vision for the shop and get them working with me towards this vision.
My first 100 days plan was to get shop looking smart, better pricing for the customers and a fresher look.
Eric: How would you describe your leadership style and where did you learn that from?
Harry: I think I like to lead by example. I am a down to earth guy and I’m very passionate about my business and my people. I love coming to work and I love the different cultures in the business.
I have learnt to be humble and focused, from the one and only boss I had for 12 years, Bill Van Dammen.
He is my teacher, guru and mentor.
Eric: What tips can you share with the migrant community if they’re thinking of starting or buying a business?
Harry: I would say to the migrants that nothing is impossible if you have the hunger for it. I totally believe we can achieve anything if want to and the sky is the limit.
First of all we need to learn the culture of the country, we just can’t follow our rules and think for success.
I don’t think there is any difference for any ethnicity in the Country. It doesn’t matter what country you belong to all we are equal.
Yes we have to work hard here, however, the end result is pleasing and destiny doesn’t matter, it’s the journey we need to enjoy.
Pak’n’Save is New Zealand’s version of Aldi and I love shopping there for the value, friendliness of the staff, and a huge variety of ethnic products – including my favourite IndoMie Goreng and Mama Noodles.

Our club golfer is feeling the weight of expectation in the winter fourball. His partner's shoulders are aching. Can he turn it around?
Was it Atlas who was condemned to carry the weight of the world on his shoulders?
Now you may think citing Greek mythology is an odd way to start a golf column. But bear with me, there is a point – albeit a fairy loose one – I’m trying to make.
We were nine holes in to the latest winter fourball – Sandburn Hall‘s way of trying to relieve the boredom that exists in the phoney war between seasons – and I’d just chunked a chip about three yards. In my defence, it was a very soft and difficult lie, but it now meant I needed my partner, Pete, to rescue both me and our outward score.
This had been a recurring theme throughout the opening loop. I’d enjoyed the odd moment – a lovely little run up on the second to save par and a towering hybrid on the par-3 sixth.
But these were few and far between. I was playing terribly – and everyone knew it.
We’d somehow soldiered round in 20 points and it wasn’t because my name was appearing on the scorecard.
This wasn’t just a hopeful statement, by the way. I actually do much prefer the inward holes at our York track. They just suit my eye.
I didn’t know whether he was trying to gee me up or give me a verbal slap round the chops. To be honest, I probably deserved both.
Now any golf coach worth his salt will tell you the 10th tee is not the time to try and cure a big technical problem. They’ll argue you’ve just got to get on with it, work through it and try to grind out a score.
Sod that. If I’m not hitting the ball in a perfectly straight arc – and fat and left is not my definition of straight – I’m going to tinker until it’s fixed.
I tried shortening the back swing. No dice. I kept my eyes on the ball a little longer, as I have a tendency to take an early peek for my shots. That didn’t work. In desperation, I widened my stance.
I hit a drive 25 yards longer than anything else I’d managed that day and then crushed a 5-iron into the heart of the 11th green.
I parred that, and the 12th and 13th, and would have done so on the next had Pete not got his ball in the hole first.
Given that we finished with 44 points, I’d like to think this was the glue that held the rest of the round together.
In fact, it was a birdie, par finish from my partner – and a massive seven points – that propelled us into fourth. We’d grabbed the last of the prize positions.
So I’ve got £15 sitting in the shop, about £3 for each time I appeared on the card. It’s not quite minimum wage but I’ll take it.
“That’s teamwork,” Pete opined when I congratulated him on his stellar play.

Have ever been embarrassed by your smile? Many people are. A 2013 study found that 81% of young adults wished they had better teeth. They felt that others judged them by the look of their teeth -- and they aren’t wrong. A study published in the American Journal of Orthodontics in 2014 found that human resources executives considered candidates with ideal teeth to be more intelligent and harder working than candidates with tooth issues.
Thankfully, you don’t have to live with less-than-perfect teeth. At Chester Family Dentistry, we offer a wide range of cosmetic dentistry procedures to make your teeth both beautiful and healthy.
Unfortunately, some of the most popular drinks cause the worst stains. Coffee, tea, wine, and even soda and fruit juice can darken your teeth. You can try those whitening strips from the drug store. However, be aware that any chemical that’s strong enough to take on deep stains are strong enough to irritate your gums, cheeks and tongue.
That’s where a professional cleaning makes the difference. We cover the soft tissues of your mouth with a pleasant gel that protects it from the whitening chemicals. Then, we send you home with a whitening kit that’s custom fit for your teeth.
Do you have a cavity or broken tooth that makes you want to hide your smile? If so, bonding might be for you. We remove the cavity or edge of the break and sculpt a bonding agent to fill in the area. This prevents further decay and gives you back your smile.
You don’t have to live with missing teeth because we have several different options for replacement. You may opt for a bridge. For this option, the dentist places crowns on the two teeth next to the space of the missing tooth and suspends an artificial tooth between them. The trio will look just like your own healthy teeth and give you a better bite and chewing surface.
Another option is a dental implant. Our dentist inserts a titanium screw into the jawbone where the tooth is missing, then places a crown over top that behaves just like a natural tooth. One of the benefits to this option is that the titanium screw acts just like the root of a healthy tooth. This keeps your jawbone healthy and strong.
If you struggle with crooked teeth, the problem is more serious than just how your teeth look. Crooked teeth are difficult to keep clean, so you may end up with more cavities than people with straighter teeth. To keep your teeth healthy, orthodontics may be the choice for you. We offer traditional orthodontics with metal brackets and wires as well as clear aligners that slowly move your teeth back into place without anyone knowing that you have braces.
If whitening isn’t an option, or if your teeth are worn down or misshapen, consider dental veneers. We offer porcelain veneers, which are thin, custom-fit coverings that are affixed to the front of your teeth. You can choose veneers that are whiter than your natural teeth to provide whitening while covering imperfections, too.
The fact is, you don’t have to live with teeth you don’t love. Click the “book online” button or call our office in Warren, Ohio, and one of our dentists can help you restore your confidence with a beautiful new smile.
If you’re unhappy with your smile, cosmetic dentistry may be the answer. Of course, not everyone shares the same dental issues. Read on to learn what type of cosmetic dentistry might be best to help restore your smile — and your confidence.

That’s what you’ll find behind the scenes at a Mighty Petunia photo shoot. These ladies are feminine and fierce and they aren’t afraid to show both of those sides… in their everyday lives and at our photo shoot!
We have a whole rack of bright and colorful tank tops and a beautiful women who want to show you how Mighty Petunia helps keep them motivated.
You may be thinking that packing a group of women into a small photography studio could result in total chaos, but that was definitely not the case here. Instead you’ll find our Mighty Petunias chatting, laughing, smiling, and always ready to strike a pose!
Inevitably, our conversation turns to fitness, working out, and motivation. We all know how hard it can be to get motivated to work out when you have a million other things going on in life. All of our models agree that it can be a real struggle. And that’s where Mighty Petunia tanks can help. They all love their MP tanks for different reasons, but each one of their reasons comes down to finding the motivation within themselves to accomplish their fitness goals.
Feeling a little blah? Unmotivated? Tired? Uninspired? Throw on your favorite MP tank and take a look in the mirror. Remind yourself of what you’re working for. Choosing to work out isn’t always easy, but it’s always worth it in the end. Finding motivation can be difficult too, and sometimes you just need to let a cute tank with an inspiring message do the work for you! Trust us, we’ve been there… and we completely understand that putting on a tank top that makes you feel good AND motivates your mind can totally do the trick.

Attack on Titan and Fruits Basket are the only Spring shows that I am really excited about. I am also interested in Carole and Tuesday, but isn't it a Netflix hijacked show?
So Sarazanmai, Bungo Stray Dogs season 3 and Attack on Titan. Whether I watch Carol and Tuesday depends on whether or not I can have access to Netflix.
No one mentioned Chihayafuru and Kono Oto Tomare which are two shows I'm looking forward to (besides the others already mentioned). I'd expect plenty are familiar with Chihayafuru from its earlier seasons. Kono Oto Tomare is actually a similar sort of show as Chihayafuru, except featuring the koto rather than karuta.
It was pushed back to Fall.
Ah, no, how disappointing. I suppose the slight bright side is one less show in the spring full of shows I want to watch will make it a little easier to keep up.
I’m only looking forward to Kimetsu no Yaiba and Bungo Stray Dogs.
I will lament the fact that Carole and Tuesday and Sarazanmai won't get weekly episode write-ups here unless somehow the former gets a Violet Evergarden-incident which seems really unlikely at this point.
Though on the other hand, I'm actually surprised P.A. Works' Fairy Gone hasn't been picked up by Netflix. I'll definitely check out that one if it actually gets a weekly simulcast along with Fruits Basket, Bocchi, and Attack on Titan S3 Part 2 though rather tepidly.
Kono Oto Tomare is actually a similar sort of show as Chihayafuru, except featuring the koto rather than karuta.
That's the one I'm looking forward to, although not without some trepidation. Compared to Chihayafuru, which was given to a major studio and a well-known director, Kono Oto Tomare is being led by a first-time director at a studio (Platinum Vision) without much of a production history. It's also a little worrying that there's no extended trailer this close to the premiere date, just a couple of 30-second previews mostly full of still images. That said, if it comes together it's going to be really good. If not, well, we'll still have the manga.
ANN staff definitely are more excited about original shows (Sarazanmai, Carole and Tuesday) than japanese audience.
I'm curious about Sarazanmai, that will be my first Ikuhara show. People complain about Ikuhara last show YuriKuma and say that for Ikuhara 1-cour is not enough. Which is worrisome becouse Sarazanmai have less episodes than YuriKuma.
I'm intrested also in Kimetsu no Yaiba.
The fact that it seems "Fairy gone" has not been picked up by Netflix yet and no announcement has been made of such is good news to me! This is the show I am anticipating the most this season and would prefer it be streamed weekly by an official streaming service.
Besides One Punch Man and Attack on Titan, Fairy gone really caught my attention for the spring season. The premise sounds interesting and I look forward to seeing how action scenes play out. The cute lead male is a bonus! I hope it doesn't disappoint.
Though I probably won't get into Carole & Tuesday, it seems like a sweet, high-quality story and I appreciate what the creators are trying to do with it.
I'm really excited for Fruits Basket (which was my long time anime adaptation pipe dream), Sarazanmai, and Carole & Tuesday (even if I have to wait a while). I'm definitely going to keep watching Attack on Titan and Dororo's second half as well. I'm also curious now about Ao-chan Can't Study because the premise could be pretty funny.
Do we know yet who has licensed Sarazanmai? I know its a Noitamina show, but so was The Promised Neverland, and that aired on multiple platforms, so maybe that exclusivity deal with Amazon expired?
The Amazon-Noitamina deal seems to be over. If nothing weird happens I expect Funimation or Crunchyroll to pick up Sarazanmai.
This season is basically a three horse race between Fruits Basket 2019, Carole and Tuesday and Sarazanmai for all intents and purposes. The expectations for One Punch Man 2 is currently somewhere between "maybe it won't look that bad and the story could save it anyway." and "this could be a complete disaster." And the rest of series debuting I don't think anyone has expectations for.
This season is basically a three horse race between Fruits Basket 2019, Carole and Tuesday and Sarazanmai for all intents and purposes.
Yeah, pretty much. I'll be watching Gundam even though it's basically just "reruns".

In this unusual murder mystery, the tranquility of Saint Mary’s Abbey is shattered by the discovery of a gruesome crime in a cottage on the abbey grounds. A foreign artist and war hero seeking refuge from the world has been murdered. Marie Paige, the frail, sickly wife of the village doctor, lies beside him beaten into a coma.
The police arrest Marie’s husband, convinced that they are looking at a crime of passion. But Dr. Paige finds himself with an unlikely champion: Fr. Gabriel, a blundering but brilliant Benedictine priest who believes in his innocence and feels compelled to search for the truth.
In a country struggling to come to terms with the devastation of the Second World War, even a secluded English village has its share of secrets and broken lives. It is not long before Fr. Gabriel and his companions find themselves embarking on a dangerous journey into the victims’ troubled war histories and a chapter of Europe’s bloodiest conflict that is almost too terrible to be acknowledged.

text: This is a fantastic whiskey. An 8.4 for a 24 month whiskey is insane. I wouldn't be surprised if most 24 month whiskies I'd give much lower - 3 to 5 range. Westland is my favorite american single malt distillery. What they've accomplished in such a small amount of time is insane. I've toured their distillery and tasting room, it's phenominal - if you're a fan of whiskey you owe it to yourself if you're ever in Seattle. It's hard not to root for them (even though they've been acquired). They're the future of American whiskey. This whiskey, with it's malty lemony quality, is something special. It's definitely not the best whiskey I've ever had; but you owe it to yourself to give Westland a chance. In 10 years Westland is going to produce the best American whiskey - mark my words!

In Yekaterinburg, I spent an evening with the guys behind the Tesnota webzine walking around the Uralmash (Уралмаш) area of the city, a Post-constructivist residential area specially built for the workers of the nearby factory with the same name during the 1930s, and these days an appealingly run-down area of the city, with bums drinking vodka near the metro station and dogs running around the courtyards. They also took a few photos with an old Soviet camera named ‘Vigilant’. The result is a fierce-looking interview in Russian – nad I allowed myself to present an English translation here. Enjoy.
A short update: I’m still sighting notes and pictures and books I bought on the road, and the daily grind welcomed me with open arms once I was back in Berlin…But I managed a few things in the meantime. The most important one is (for the moment) the interactive map (see above), which allows you to follow my trip chronologically and location-related. You will find it also under ‘Route‘.
Ein kurzes Update: ich war nicht faul und habe angefangen meine Aufzeichnungen und Fotos durchzuschauen, aber auch der tägliche Trott hat mich mich offenen Armen empfangen. Ein paar Sachen habe ich aber auch hier im Blog ändern können. Das Wichtigste (im Moment) ist die interaktive Karte (siehe oben), die es Euch erlaubt meine Berichte von unterwegs chronologisch und ortsbezogen zu lesen. Findet man jetzt auch unter “Route“.
I’m back in Berlin, where it’s as hot and muggy as in Warsaw and Moscow these last weeks. I haven’t started going through my notes and sighting all the pieces of paper and museum leaflets and books I purchased on the road yet – doing my laundry had priority. But one thing is for sure: there’s still more to come. I still have to publish a few more interviews, and there are so many interesting things I bookmarked from both Poland and Russia that I’m going to share in the next days/weeks – so please stay with me.
Ich bin wieder in Berlin angekommen, wo es genauso heiss und stickig ist wie in Warschau und Moskau in den letzten Wochen. Ich habe noch nicht damit begonnen, meine Aufzeichnungen durchzuschauen oder all die Flyer, Bücher und Notizen zu sichten die ich unterwegs aufgesammelt habe – meine schmutzige Wäsche hatte Priorität. Aber eines ist sicher: fertig bin ich noch lange nicht. Es stehen noch Interviews aus; und viele interessante Websites und Artikel aus Polen und Russland, die ich zur späteren Veröffentlichung gespeichert hatte, sitzen noch ungelesen in meinen Lesenzeichen. All das kommt in den nächsten Tagen und Wochen – bleibt mir also gewogen!
Today, I finally managed to visit two of the places my grandmother spent time here in the Urals, a small village named named Kosulino (Косулино), where she worked for three years, 1946 – 1949, and a small industrial town named Revda (Ревда́), which was the location of last camp she worked in before returning to Germany in 1950. Sadly, there are no remains of any of the camps from this time. A gruesome reminder of how diligently Stalin and his henchmen had tried to erase all traces of the many GULAGs around Yekaterinburg was the memorial to the victims of his terror we passed on the way. It is located on the spot where a mass grave with 18,000 of his victims was discovered in the early Nineties.
On a more cheerful note, thanks to local guide Luba Suslyakowa (if you ever come to Yekaterinburg and the Urals you should book one of her tours) and her friend Sergey who drove us around, I was also able to do a very touristy thing and stand with one leg in Europe and one in Asia, as is the local custom at the Europe/Asia-bordermarker. I did not have champagne though.
Heute habe ich es endlich an Zwei der Orte geschafft, an denen meine Grossmutter hier im Ural untergebracht war. Es handelt sich dabei um das Dorf Kosulino (Косулино), wo sie für drei Jahre, 1946 – 1949, gearbeitet hat, und die Kleinstadt Rewda (Ревда́), wo sie das letzte Jahr vor ihrer Rückkehr nach Deutschland 1950 verbracht hat. Leider gibt es dort keinerlei Überreste der Arbeitslager mehr. Wie gründlich Stalin und seine Schergen auch die Erinnerungen an die Opfer und die GULAGs vernichten wollten, davon zeugt das nahebei liegende Denkmal für die Opfer seiner Terrorherrschaft – errichtet über einem Massengrab mit 18 000 Opfern aus den 30er Jahren, welches erst Anfang der Neunziger entdeckt wurde.
Etwas positiver war dann mein durch und durch touristischer Besuch am der Grenze zwischen Europa und Asien, die nahe Jekaterinburg verläuft. Und zwar dank meiner beiden Helfer, Reiseführerin Luba Suslyakowa (deren Touren man bei einem Besuch in Jekaterinburg und dem Ural auf jeden Fall buchen sollte) und ihrem Freund Sergey, unserem Fahrer. Champagner habe ich dort aber nicht getrunken.
Alexey Subbotin is a writer and finance expert hailing from a small district centre in the Arkhangelsk region of Russia. He lived abroad quite extensively both for work and travel experiences and called places like London and Barcelona his home, and has relocated to Moscow a few years ago – where he also wrote his first book. It’s an English-language e-novella entitled ‘A Few Hours In The Life Of A Young Man‘, which you should definitively give a try: it’s a stream of consciousness-esque, one-day-long journey through modern-day Moscow, with a lot of insight into the minds of Russian people today. ‘God may love us, but the people can’t stand each other!’, the protagonist proclaims at one point. The book also comes with many information and footnotes about Russian customs and quirks, and can serve as a social guidebook for outsiders.
As Alexey is a declared fan of Guinness, we met in a Moscow pub last week, fittingly called ‘Temple Bar’, to test the black stuff in the Russian capital and talked about Russia, the internet and writing in general.

For college occasions, you can use these as fundraisers. Typically, you can have these cheap wristbands made for significantly less than a dollar based on the quantity. The far more cheap wristbands you buy, the cheaper the wristbands will be. And you can promote them for a dollar and fifty or two bucks.
Now gaining mass publicity on the No Doubt tour, The Sounds have no better explanation than to rest their hopes on Crossing The Rubicon. Tracks like “Lost In Really like” and “Underground” are custom-made for a dance floor full of Valley girls in b/w checker skirts and rubber bracelets. Quirky but with a large drum sound and the keyboard style that Martin Gore of Depeche Mode minimize his on in 1981. In a battle to the death between The Sounds and retro thieves The Killers, the Nordic bunch would drink their blood from the skull of Brandon Flowers.

Mount Isa School of the Air is a government co-educational prep – year 10 school servicing the needs of isolated students in North West Queensland. Our 200 students (approximate current enrolment) are drawn from a large geographical area which extends from the Gulf of Carpentaria to Birdsville and from Richmond in the East to the Territory in the west.
Our school has two significant underlying values and they are 'Excellence in Education in the Outback' and 'We are a school of families'.
Our field service team provides our students and home tutors with various opportunities to engage in face to face contact and interactions.
Students work with the current Queensland Curriculum aligned to the National Curriculum in the key learning areas to ensure national standards are maintained. Other focus areas within our program are literacy and numeracy skills across all subjects, social and emotional wellbeing and ICT capabilities.
Given that our school community extends across one quarter of Queensland, we have a wonderfully supportive, caring and active school community. There is strong cohesion in relationships between staff, parents, governesses and students which reflects solidly in our school opinion surveys and is the key strength of our school.
The school is staffed by a principal, deputy principal, primary and secondary teachers, teacher-librarian, support teacher – literacy and numeracy, field team, languages-other-than-English teachers, technical officer, parent liaison officer, administration officers, teacher aides, gardener and cleaner. They are responsible for the education of children from prep to year 10, who are unable to access regular schooling. It is the responsibility of the family to make available a suitable person to act as home tutor to guide the child through the program at home and provide appropriate supervision for that child.
A guided Tour is held at 10am on school days.
The tour takes approximately 1hr.
We are situated at 137 – 143 Abel Smith Parade, Pioneer, Mount Isa.

This database is not designed as a complete list of all Master's degrees taught in English around the world. There are plenty of other websites that contain this information.
There is only one, very important criterion for a Master's degree to be listed on this site: postgrad funding is available to British students either automatically or through scholarships for which you can apply. On each course page you should be able to follow links to the funding types available for you. If it is nationally available or EU available support, then you automatically have a right to access this finance, although please pay attention to any terms and conditions. Postgrad scholarships made available by individual universities are obviously awarded entirely at their own discretion.

Getting to Calgary by car is easy with connections to several major highway systems. Calgary is accessible by the Trans-Canada Highway (also known as the #1 Highway) and Alberta Highway 2 (also known as Queen Elizabeth II Highway). These highways link Calgary to Banff, Medicine Hat, Red Deer, Edmonton, and the United States border.
Highways into Calgary may face delays due to weather occurrences such as forest fires in the summer and avalanches in the winter. It is advisable to plan ahead and find the latest road reports for Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan. You can also check the Alberta Motor Association (AMA) for road reports throughout Alberta and road conditions across the United States of America.

Travelling to Calgary on a luxury train service provided by the Rocky Mountaineer is a popular option for visitors looking for a once in a lifetime experience. Train tours departing from and arriving into Calgary provide a wonderful experience to begin or end your holiday.
Regular passenger services that are strictly transportation-based are not currently offered in Calgary. If you are looking only for transportation services as opposed to a luxury train service, you will need to arrive by car, bus, or air.
All visitors to Canada arriving from a different country must cross the Canadian border and pass through customs. Visitors arriving by air travel will complete the customs process at the airport upon arrival in Canada.
Visitors to Canada should carry valid travel documents when crossing the border, no matter how you arrive. You will require a passport or equivalent travel document in order to cross the border and enter Canada.
You can consult the Government of Canada’s Requirements to Enter Canada for more information regarding entry requirements or the Canada Border Services Agency for customs regulations.
Visitors entering Canada from the United States by car can use four main ports of entry on the Alberta/Montana border. It is important to note that not all border crossings are open all year and not all are open 24 hours. Check the Canada Border Services Agency for complete information to plan your trip across the border and bringing goods across the border.
Please note, rental cars cannot travel over international borders and be dropped off in a different country. All rental cars must be returned in their country of origin. For example, a rental car from the state of Montana cannot be returned in the province of Alberta.

Ever heard of a KWL chart? When presenting a topic, beforehand have your child list out the things they think they already KNOW (K) about the topic. Next, have them list the things they WANT TO KNOW (W). Then, after presenting the information, have them look to see what things they did LEARN (L) and double-check the things they thought they knew. If they didn’t learn all the things they wanted to, that is a great time to help them research the answers.

The incident with the aircraft has doubtless jeopardized relations between the two Eurasian giants.
The incident involving the shooting down of the Russian aircraft by the Turkish Air Force will be a difficult test for bilateral relations between Moscow and Ankara. Until recently, politicians and analysts viewed them as an example of success in improving relations between the former historical enemies.
Meanwhile, it would be wrong to consider the current problems as something which arose suddenly and for no apparent reason. Well-known Turkish expert Bulent Aras described Turkish-Russian relations as a "competitive partnership."
Indeed, the views of Moscow and Ankara have not coincided on many political subjects. On either the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and on Georgia, whose territorial integrity has not been questioned by Turkish politicians. Although Ankara did not seek to pursue the theme of Crimea, its attitude toward the change in the status of the peninsula in Russia's favour can be defined as cautious skepticism.
However, both countries were able for a long time to narrow down their differences through development of mutually beneficial economic relations. It seemed that pragmatism would continue to overshadow the contradictions and debate on political subjects.
The relationship of Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the last decade's leading Turkish politician, with the United States and the European Union left much to be desired.
Ankara was not happy about Washington's relations with the Kurdish movements in the Middle East, while the movement of the Turkish Republic toward European integration did not meet much enthusiasm on the part of Brussels. The parties were unable to reach a breakthrough on the issue of Cyprus.
In addition, the "Kurdish card" in Turkey also provoked debate within the European Union, about the advisability of bringing Turkey into the fold. Additionally, the Turkish Republic is the only NATO member country to have received the status of a dialogue partner in the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO).
In short, Russia and Turkey agreed to disagree on some issues, but did not cross the "red lines" and question the need for increased economic cooperation. This was evidenced by the preparation for the implementation of the Turkish Stream energy project, designed to reduce the dependence of the Russian Federation on Ukraine as a transit country for Russian gas.
However, it is not in 2015 that the logic of an "agreement to disagree" began to break down. The origins should be sought in the events of 2011, when the so-called ‘Arab Spring’ came to West Asia.
If Moscow saw this event as a dangerous challenge associated with the collapse of the secular state, the strengthening of Islamic fundamentalism and concerns about its export to the post-Soviet states and Russia itself, then Turkey saw it as a chance to return to the region, which Ankara for many years did not see as its priority.
Hence Turkish support for the leader of Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood, Mohamed Morsi, a sharp turn to the criticism of Israel and political support of Palestine, and the struggle against the regime of Bashar al-Assad. Ankara actually made a claim for the Middle East as its "near abroad."
As a result, the two Eurasian giants formed different political "optics." In Syria, Moscow sees Islamic State and the collapse of the secular state as the main threat, while Ankara fears the strengthening of the positions of the Kurds and the Alawites, and the defeat of its "clients," who are interested in the strengthening of the Turkish influence in the region.
The incident with the aircraft has doubtless jeopardized relations between the two Eurasian giants. Each has both the prestige of the country, and its understanding of the prospects of getting out of the current situation at stake. The situation is fluid and will be changing and be refined. Emotions have reached the highest point both in Ankara and Moscow.
Both countries do have some experience of getting out of such complex and almost deadlocked situations. Also, neither wants to help third forces by weakening each other. Turkey is well aware that, in spite of its dislike for Assad, destabilization in the neighboring country may boomerang on Turkish society itself.
There is radical Islamist sentiment inside, whose carriers are ready to fight against Erdogan, regardless of his relations with Russia. Even by spoiling them, he will not get forgiveness and support from these people. All this provides a faint hope that the countries will find some modus vivendi in the new challenging environment.
