Home Preventive Dentistry How Often Should You Get Dental X-Rays Taken?
I've gotten a few emails lately asking about how often dental x-rays should be taken. An extreme example involved a young girl who had nearly 50 x-rays taken of one tooth over the course of a few years.
Another common example involves an adult who has never had a cavity. Her dentist wants to take x-rays of her teeth every year.
The main problem with getting so many x-rays is that whenever your body gets exposed to radiation, there is a risk of damaging your DNA, which could lead to cancer. The amount of radiation from x-rays is very small, so this isn't something to worry about, but getting lots of dental x-rays every year can add up to a lot of radiation exposure over your whole life!
Do people really need to have x-rays taken this often? Let's find out below!
The answer really depends on your oral health and your age. For example, a 35-year old woman who has never had a cavity would require x-rays less often than than an 8-year old boy who has had several cavities in the past and doesn't brush his teeth.
In order to provide the best answer to the question of how often to have x-rays taken, I will break it down into five different answers based on age and oral health. Hopefully you can identify the category that most closely resembles your situation to get a general idea of how often you need to have dental x-rays taken.
One more note: To figure out whether you fall into the low cavity risk or high cavity risk category, think about how many cavities you've had in the past, whether you've had any recent cavities, the amount of sugar you eat or drink, and whether or not you brush and floss daily. People with previous cavities and poor oral hygiene are usually at a higher risk for getting cavities and would need to have x-rays taken more often.
How Often www.health-canada-pharmacy.com Does a Child (Under 18) with a High Cavity Risk Need Dental X-Rays?
A child with cavities or at a high risk for getting cavities would generally need dental x-rays taken every 6 to 12 months.
If there are spaces between your child's teeth and the dentist can clinically inspect those teeth, then x-rays are generally not necessary. It is always important to weigh the benefits and risks of having x-rays taken.
How Often Does an Adult (Over 18) with a High Cavity Risk Need Dental X-Rays?
An adult with frequent cavities or at a high risk of getting cavities would need dental x-rays taken every 6 to 18 months.
How Often Does a Child (Under 12) with a Low Cavity Risk Need Dental X-Rays?
A child younger than 12 years old with no current cavities and at a low risk of getting cavities would need dental x-rays taken every 12 to 24 months. Again, many children have spaces between their teeth. If this is the case, the dentist can usually detect cavities simply by looking in the mouth and would not need to take x-rays on those teeth.
How Often Does a Teenager (12-18) with a Low Cavity Risk Need Dental X-Rays?
A teenager with no current cavities and at a low risk of getting cavities would need dental x-rays taken every 18 to 36 months.
How Often Does an Adult (Over 18) with a Low Cavity Risk Need Dental X-Rays?
An adult with no current cavities and at a low risk of getting cavities would need dental x-rays taken every 24 to 36 months.
The scenarios above are mainly to diagnose cavities and refer to the routine bitewing radiographs that dentists take. There are many other situations when a dentist would want to take different x-rays where I couldn't find clear guidelines, such as for monitoring periodontal disease, monitoring teeth that are at an increased risk for developing disease, and for monitoring growth in adolescents.
However the situation that I described above in which a young girl had nearly 50 x-rays taken on one tooth over a few years is definitely too many!
At my dental school, we used the book Treatment Planning in Dentistry by Stefanac and Nesbitt to learn about when and how often to prescribe dental x-rays. I am basing the recommendations for the timing of dental x-rays found above on information found in that textbook, which coincide with the recommendations from the American Dental Association (PDF).
As you can see, dentists may recommend x-rays for diagnosing cavities anywhere from every six months to every three years — depending on your oral health.
Keep in mind that the above guidelines are just that — guidelines. You may need x-rays taken more or less often depending on what you and your dentist think is best for you. For example, if you have spaces between all of your teeth and the dentist can see whether or not you have cavities just by looking in your mouth, then there probably isn't a need for dental x-rays.
Do you have any questions or comments on the timing of dental x-rays? I'd love to hear what you have to say in the comments section below. Thanks for reading!
What about when you are pregnant? is it ever OK then? or should xrays be avoided until after the baby comes? and what about when you are breastfeeding, is it OK then?
Hi myrebel – During pregnancy x-rays should be avoided if possible. However, in some cases x-rays are necessary to diagnose and treat a pregnant woman's dental problem. Dental x-rays have been shown to be very safe even during pregnancy.
To put that in perspective, a full mouth series of dental x-rays (around 16-20 individual x-rays) with a lead apron on would expose the fetus to 0.00001 cGy, at least 500,000 times lower than what has been shown to be safe.
As far as I know, there are no problems with getting dental x-rays when you're breastfeeding. I hope that answers your questions! Thanks for your comment.
Thanks for clarifying the x-ray issue. Great article!
What is your take on low-risk patients (i.e., no history of cavities) refusing to have x-rays performed? Is it appropriate for a dental practice to refuse to see a patient for a routine cleaning if x-rays aren't done, on the claim that the dentist could get in trouble with the state dental board? Is there any validity to the dental board issue? I figure that, should a question arise later from the board regarding the lack of regular x-rays on a particular patient, a dentist is protected by documenting the x-ray refusal on the patient's chart.
I know that x-rays are routine every 3-5 years to check for decay that may not be visible during an exam, but refusing x-rays, especially when the patient has no history of tooth decay, seems like a basic right that should be respected.
I am a dental hygienist and in our practice the dentists malpractice insurance requires us to have up to date full mouth series radiographs or risk losing the malpractice insurance. We require up to date radiographs and if the patient refuses we have to dismiss them from our practice.
Amanda, You did not say how many times one should have a full mouth set of X-rays !
Once a year ? every two years — if one has cleaning 4 times a year and is low risk cavities.
I work as a veterinary assistant and as a part of my job I restrain horses and hold film plates for taking x-rays in the field. I wear my lead vest and dosimeter badge each time.
Since I am exposed to more radiation than the normal person who does not work in such conditions I am always cautious about getting unnecessary x-rays. I visit the dentist twice a year, and sometimes more since all of my teeth are capped and I have a tooth pop off now and then. Every single time I go to the dentist they insist on taking x-rays, I received 12 last year between my 2 dental cleanings and the two times I had caps pop off. I just now started declining x-rays, but the dental staff has been almost rude to me and treated me as if I were stupid for not wanting x-rays taken that day knowing that my last set was just taken 6 months prior. I have not had a cavity in over 7 years since my caps were placed, I brush regularly and floss every day. Is it wrong of me to decline these x-rays, considering my work history?
Hi Charlotte – For someone who hasn't had a cavity in the last seven years, I would think that you don't need x-rays every time that you go into the dentist. According to the guidelines above, you'd probably only need x-rays every 2-3 years.
Or course, any time a crown comes off, it's a good idea to get an x-ray to make sure that the tooth is alright and that the crown has been fully re-seated correctly onto the tooth.
I hope that helps. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks for your comment, Charlotte!
Hello, thanks for the article. I recently had to get my wisdom tooth taken out. In the process I had 1 panoramic x ray done, a few digital ones also done and a cone beam done by the dental surgeon. Today because of some recurring swelling, i had a bite wing done on the right side. They also removed a OKC from one of the tooth so i need regular checkups. A total of 4 visit to the dentist in 2 months a different x-ray done every time and more to come, should I be concerned and are there any alternatives?
Hi Steve – Since you had an OKC, there's really no better way to visualize it completely than with a cone beam CT. I wouldn't be too concerned. A cone beam CT actually gives you a lot less radiation than a regular CT scan. Many new patients at my dental school get at least 18 x-rays taken to visualize every part of their mouth.
I hope that helps, Steve. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks for your comment!
Hi – I really like your common sense approach. Many years ago I was a certified dental assistant (before expanded duties came along…. although I love dentistry, I ended up with an MBA in business) so I some dental background.
Hi Marcie – In an adult who has never had any cavities, I would say that bitewings every three years is sufficient. We generally recommend a panoramic x-ray every five years to catch beginning pathology. Unfortunately, the dentist may be nervous about getting sued if they were to miss anything, so they take extra x-rays – exposing their patients to more radiation – to make sure.
Overall, the excess radiation probably wouldn't do any harm, but nobody really knows for sure since it's so hard to study. For example, if your daughter were to get cancer when she's 70 years old, it would be hard to pinpoint excess dental x-rays from 50 years before as a cause.
I hope that helps – Thanks for your comment! Let me know if you have any other questions, Marcie.
hi,my name is maria I am a dental assistant I take more than twenty bitewings a day and like the same amount of PA am I in damger if they r digital.
Hi Maria – As long as you are standing behind a lead-shielded wall, you should be fine.
I hope that helps – Thanks for your comment, Maria. Let me know if you have any other questions.
As a practicing Dental Hygienist in Florida, I can say that the "x-ray debate" is the most common subject that comes up during my patient's recall visits. The problem as I see it is NOT just a radiation issue, it is also a MONEY issue! My patients without insurance don't like the added expense of taking bitewing x-rays, which can be important not only for cavity detection but also for bone loss concerns with periodontally inclined patients as well. The two things they say the most are, "Well, if you SEE something while you're cleaning, then we can go ahead." & "I'm sure I'm doing fine, I don't have any pain". It is extremely important to get to the reason behind their reluctance to take x-rays when the dentist or hygienist feels they are needed, and I have found that having a release form for the patients to sign helps. My form explains the need for the xrays, the problem of undetected pathology if we don't take them, and the release of responsibility of the practice should something serious arise from not being detected on the x-ray in time. I explain to the patient that I would like to update their xrays today, why in their case we feel it is time to check their teeth at this visit radiographically, the possibility of a lower cost to them if we can fix a possible problem earlier and thus more conservatively, and that a copy of their release if they sign will be given to them and also placed in their chart. Almost always the hedging will begin… "Well", the patient will offer, "maybe we should go ahead and take them just to be sure", or "Let's go ahead and take them at the NEXT appointment"! Nine times out of ten, I end up taking them that day. My dentist is completely on board with the call- by-call evaluation for the necessity of taking xrays, and every patient knows the xrays aren't something we routinely take whether they have a need for them or not! I feel I am lucky to have the dentist agree with me, because I have been a substitute for the day in many offices where I was told that it was their policy to take xrays every 6 months or every year because "the insurance will cover it". Sigh. Patient education and good listening skills go a long way towards avoiding the "xray debate". We need to use our heads when making decisions about what xrays to take and when on each individual patient, and NOT let the insurance company or an outdated "office policy" rob us of our common sense on these matters.
Hi Lisa – Most of the patients that we deal with in dental school haven't been to the dentist in a while and they know that they need x-rays. I haven't yet dealt with anyone who declined getting x-rays although there have been some people who are hesitant.
That does sound like a good way to let patients know that we're not taking them simply to charge them more – we really want to be able to give them a full, accurate diagnosis and treatment plan. It seems like a lot of dentists simply rush patients through the exam and x-ray process without giving the patients time to get answers to their questions. Communication definitely is key.
I did like the quote about taking x-rays "if you see anything." If we could see interproximally, we probably wouldn't need the x-rays!
Hi Blueash – Since cavities can form quickly in some people, it's a good idea to get x-rays in order to ensure that your teeth stay healthy. We also look at the area around the tooth and the bone to make sure that it is healthy and there aren't any cysts/tumors forming.
In any case, of you don't feel like there's a problem and don't want to pay for them, you can always decline having x-rays taken. Thanks for your comment – let me know if you have any other questions!
I recently got my wisdoms taken out, I just realized that the surgeon did not issue me an apron during the cone beam scan. Should I be worried? How much more radiation is a cone beam than a regular x ray?
Hi Stephen – In my oral radiology book, it shows that cone beam CT scans give you anywhere from 20 to 599 micro Sieverts of radiation. Most likely, it was somewhere around 70 micro sieverts. This is equivalent to 9 days of natural radiation that you receive just by living on earth.
That's about 7 times more than the radiation you would receive from one dental x-ray at my dental school. I wouldn't be too worried, as most of the radiation was directed at your face, which wouldn't be shielded by the lead apron anyways.
Hi Tom: In follow-up to your post on 8/25, I was wondering if you could explain the difference between ultraviolet and x-ray radiation. I often hear dentist compare x-ray exposure to exposure of "natural" radiation emmitted from the sun, just like you did in your post. As far as I know, x-ray radiation penetrates deeply into the tissue and affects the DNA while radiation from the sun may only burn our skin and does not change DNA.
Hi Kate – The main difference between UV and X-Ray radiation is the wavelength, or energy of the radiation. As far as I know, UV rays do damage the DNA in our skin, which can give rise to skin cancer later in life. X-rays may also damage DNA. Just as spending a day in the sun probably wouldn't cause skin cancer, getting x-rays periodically isn't likely to cause cancer.
It's a good analogy – thanks for bringing it up. I'll keep it in mind for a future article. Thanks for your comment, Kate! Let me know if you have any other questions.
Hi, I am so glad to have found this. I called to schedule an appt for my daughter on Friday and I know she has some issues that we need to fix. I was unclear on how often an xray is needed and so I was asking why she needed an xray at this appt if they took xrays at her last appt about 6 months ago. My Mom became ill in February and died in May due to complications from gallbladder cancer. I think it would help if an office properly trained their staff on how to explain the importance of an xray the way you did here. When she said my daughter would be getting an xray I asked why, they have xrays from March and she said just to see better. I kept asking why they can't use the old xray (sorry, I am not the expert :)) and she had no clear answer which put me on guard. SO she went and asked the dentist and he said it is proptocol for each and every check up/cleaning (which I still don't feel comfortable with and may be looking for another dentist for my daughter). I asked again why this is necassary and she put me on hold while she went to look at the old xray and came back and told me they would not need a full mouth xray, just 2 little ones. I asked if that is supposed to be safer and she said "Ummm, yah." which didn't sound very reassuring. I almost called and cancelled the appt this morning after talking to friend who has worked in a dental office for 15 yrs told me they only do xrays if the pt comes in with pain or an issue of some kind. Otherwise they only do xrays every year or 2. I asked this lady at my daughters office what if I said no to the xray and she told me they have to have to do it for proper diagnosis. Anyway, I am sure I came off as nuts even though I explained to her that my Mom just passed recently and I have been reading up on causes and risks and maybe I am just being paranoid. I have a question, though. If they say a child's skull is not fully develpoed until they are 12 or so, shouldn't the dentist be weary of taking xrays 2 or more times a yr on an 8 yr old? It's not about the money for me, I am concerned about the harms of radiation going to my child's brain and I think this is a ligit concern for parents. And I think many parents would be put at ease if the professionalls had common sense answers like I just read here instead of getting the feeling they are taking guesses with the answers.Thanks for your informative article.
Hi Amy – I would be leery of a dentist who says it is protocol to take x-rays every 6 months. IF your child is at very high risk for getting cavities, then x-rays can be taken every six months. If this is the case, I think that it should be determined after the dentist looks in your child's mouth and deems it necessary to prescribe the x-rays.
By the way, depending on their x-ray system, the two small x-rays could very well expose your child to more radiation than the large x-ray that goes around her head. You can learn more about how much radiation you get from dental x-rays here.
I was talked into getting braces to correct 1 tooth that was out of line on my bottom teeth after the age of 40 by my denist who was also a friend. Prior to having the braces installed, a full set of x-rays were taken at a lab as requested by the orthodontist. While the braces were on for almost 2 years, I continued to have regular check-ups with my dentist. X-rays were never taken. After removal of braces only bite-wing x-rays were taken by my dentist. While wearing braces, I also had a gum graft on the one tooth that was out of line. Approximately 8 months after the braces were removed I noticed my teeth were shifting even thought I constantly wore the removable retainer. While at a check-up with the periodontist, she became upset that a permanent retainer had not been installed to keep the bottom front teeth in place. She told me to go back to the orthodontist and have her re-install the braces and then have a permanent retainer affixed when the braces were removed again 6 months later. I now find out that I have root resorption on all teeth with severe root resorption on the bottom 4 front teeth. The only thing keeping the 4 front bottom teeth in place now is the permanent retainer. My orthodontist says although she never formally requested x-rays, she assumed since I was making regular visits to my dentist that she would be taking x-rays and notifying her if she saw anything. My dentist just says not her fault. What is the typical protocal for taking x-rays in this situation?
Hi Tom. It is interesting what you are trying to do. But when you start to actually practice Dentistry, you will find that it is really different. Patient healthcare changes so fast. I have seen patients healthy with no decay for years and 6 months after there is enamel destruction. A visual exam is not sufficient. And you hear from the patient saying "Why didn't you see this?" I have been working in this field for 13 years. In my oppinion, part of the prevention are bitewings every 12 months and FMX every 4 or 5 years. Now with digital x-ray it safe to do that.
My 8 yo so with CP,GAD,OCD and numerous other dx had an accident in his wheel chair that knocked his permanent two front teeth out. They have been put back in and attached well.. Dentist wants us to come in every 2-3 weeks for X-rays for three months.. To monitor for infection etc.. Is this safe? He has such high anxiety that an endontist is hesitant to see him now so he has agreed to monitor the X-rays. I'm concerned about too much radiation.. He doesn't need anything else on his plate!
I found this article informative. I used to take my boys to the same dentist I went to. I never questioned the X-rays he gave the boys but one day I asked why I needed X-rays every year when I hadn't had a cavity in 30 years. I have never had gum disease. The dentist actually got angry with me. A few years later we ended up at another dentist and I noticed the boys were only receiving 2 bitewing X-rays every year. The other dentist was giving them 4 bite wings and 2 PA's per year. Neither boy is cavity prone.
I know now to ask how many X-rays are you giving and why.
I just got new dental insurance and had to switch to a new dentist. I am used to having the normal bite-wings and panorama x-rays done.
This new dentist did about 18 x-rays, including a panorama. I have talked to someone else who said when she went to a new dentist and forgot to forward her old x-rays (like I did), they did about 14 x-rays on her. Is this standard procedure? Seems a bit overkill if they also used a panoramic machine too.
Thank for any advice you may give!
Every dentist or specialist I see demands to take full mouth digital x-rays for their records. They refuse to provide copies to the patient or another dentist in DICOM format and are only willing to provide small blurry paper prints, which is unacceptable to another dentist. Some will send out .jpgs that cannot be enlarged and are out of focus and lack any identifying information. I don't want the extra radiation or expense. HIPPA law says I have a right to the x-rays in the format of my choice. DICOM readers are available for download. Why are many dentists so secretive and uncooperative about patient x-rays not wanting to share quality images? Medical facilities readily put digital x-rays and mri's on CD's or DVD's sometimes including the interpretative reports free of charge. When will the dental profession get on board with providing quality copies of x-rays to avoid unnecessary radiation and expense? Insurance companies have limits.
A year ago I woke with a painful tooth which had a crown. I went straight to my dentist. She checked it and xrayed but found nothing. The next morning the tooth could not be touched. I went directly to the oral surgeon in town who didn't have a patient first thing that day and he pulled it for me. The tooth had cracked at the gumline. Now I question x rays! I have 2 more teeth with crowns. One had a root canal many years ago by a superb endodontist and has never given me a minutes trouble. The other was crowned by a dentist who said it had been filled too many times, etc., and I'd lost a small filling. He fixed that and I paid well over $1,000 to cover that tooth. I worry that tooth could break and not be discovered by x rays.
A dental x-ray wether it is 2d 3d imaging, soredex cone beam ct or cranex 3d imaging will not harm your baby. You're wearing a lead vest over your stomach to protect you from the radiation. Although most women do not get dental x-rays during their pregnancy, this does not mean you cannot do it. It's not anymore harmful then spending a full day in the sun, its the same amount of radiation!
My son is no longer on my insurance. I pay cash for him to get his teeth cleaned every six months. Last time he went, he had two small fillings. Now, when he called to schedule his next cleaning, they told him he needed x-rays on the two teeth that were filled to see if they are all right. I just had a medical bill for over $400, and gave $ to my son for this cleaning ($150), the additional $100 for x-rays seem like they are not needed. Why do I have to pay to make sure they did the filling right? Isn't that their job? Should he have these x-rays? I do not want him to have a problem by not getting them, but I don't understand this.
My husband and I recently went to what I will call a "chain" dental group because they now have numerous office locations around the county. Our dentist had recently left the state and we answered a promotion for a cleaning, xrays and exam for $69. We figured that it would be a good way to experience the service and if we liked it, we would continue with the dental service. However, after xrays and a brief exam we were both told that we needed deep cleanings. Not having dental insurance, we were visited by the office personnel who said that we could take their yearly prremium of $399 and the deep cleanings would be $649 each for a total of about $1700 or without their plan a total of over $2,000. After paying $138 for the advertised services, we told them we needed to discuss how we would proceed once we got home. My husband and I decided to get the simple cleaning and follow up with a deep cleaning done in stages for ease of eating and also ease of cost.
When we called back to reschedule the cleanings that had been paid for we were told that we could not have them because it would be unethical and the dentist could lose his/her license by giving us something other than what was recommended. I offered to sign off liability but was refused being told that we had already received x-rays worth over $200 and besides that simple cleaning was only a polishing anyway. I have had a deep cleaning and it was done in stages and on my terms. I found this a bait and switch tactic. A friend had also gone to this group in another office and was told that she too needed a deep cleaning. However, when she went to another periodontist, was told that she was NOT in need of a deep cleaning. They are charging about a $1,000 for this procedure. It seems like a money scheme especially for those who carry insurance and don't question the charges.
I have had so many problems with my teeth for the last 5 years with xrays done probably every 6 months including 3 panos and a CT on an impacted wisdom tooth. That said, I didn't go to the dentist for 5 years prior to that! England doesn't have the best dentists! Should I be concerned about the amount of radiation I have been exposed to?
My dentist recommended a panoramic dental x ray. I haven't taken one for about two years.
Just that this time I've been told that the first one didn't come out right and I had to take a second one. That's 2 panoramic dental x rays in a few minutes. I am freaking out now thinking that I shouldn't have agreed to the second one and just run away. Should I be concerned?


You might think that a school that offered its first classes in 1865, after the end of the Civil War, didn't have a dog in the "which college can be guiltiest about slavery" fight. But you'd be wrong!
Already, they have uncovered a range of evidence showing how MIT's early decades were shaped by the post-Civil War process of reconstruction … Perhaps the most jarring finding: an 1850 Virginia census document, which shows that before William Barton Rogers moved to Boston to found MIT, he and his wife, Emma, held six human beings as slaves.
In the 157 years since MIT's founding, we have often celebrated William Barton Rogers for his creative vision as an educator and his tenacity in pushing to establish MIT. With this new evidence, and our ongoing commitment to learn more about the links between the institution of slavery and technical institutions like MIT, today we must start thinking together about how to tell a more complete version of our history.
One "bad fact," as the litigators say, is that the no-longer-known-to-be-neighborly Mr. Rogers's name is engraved in stone (concrete?) on the main MIT building (funded by George Eastman about 20 years prior to his suicide).
My first thought was that this had something to do with course workload. Or, on reflection, grad school?
Better get a project going in the Media Lab to scour all spaces and files with pattern-matching gear to search-and-destroy Confederate flags.
It is funny that MIT just found this out now so I did some digging and I came across the following blog written in the year 2160 by Philg's great, great, great-son.
Today, while reviewing the archives of MIT, we came across the shocking discovery that Rafael Reif, a former president of MIT, did not identify himself as "genderqueer". Furthermore, he never, not only once, did he wear a mini-skirt or bra to the campus or put on lipsticks. Needless to say, we are ashamed of this discovery and its impact on the history of MIT as such I have ordered the removal of all references to Rafael Reif from the archives history of MIT.
The shame, the shame. I think MIT needs to retroactively un-grant any degrees which were granted in the past, until the graduates who, knowingly or not, studied under the influence of a slave owner, come in for some re-education. Maybe some sort of an offsite or 'camp' they could go to.
How do these people live in a country with its capital itself named after a rich white man who owned slaves? Shouldn't the city be renamed, maybe after the greatest President?

WILTON – At the request of Selectman Kermit Williams, changing the name of the board was again addressed at the regular meeting on the board on Feb. 26.
"It's important to many people that we change the name," from Selectmen to Selectboard, he said, and moved to do so.
Boissonnault said the change was not originally her idea but expressed to her by other people. "I have no problem with being a selectman," she said.
Chairman Bill Condra remained opposed to the change and moved to table the question until next year when it could be put to a vote at town meeting.
Neither of the other two seconded the idea, killing it.
Last week, the board voted to put "Selectboard" on the door of the new office but not change the name. At that time, Williams and Condra both voted in favor of "keeping with tradition," saying it had been 'Selectmen' for over 200 year, that it was a title, and not sexist.
The vote to change the name was 2 to 1 in favor.

Andy Warhol's Wig, Glasses & Watch
"Silkscreen" Marilyn Color Series
6x7 format film, NYC 1987 "Silkscreen" Series London 1997
Pictured: Andy Warhol's Wig, Glasses and Watch photographed in his New York City apartment.
Soon after Warhol's death photographer David Gamble was permitted access to Warhol's East 66th street House, Factory and Warehouse. There, he captured the placement of Warhol's belongings as the artist had lived with them over the years. Rather than simply documenting the space, Gamble's careful still-lifes capture the humanity and fierce individuality of the artist.
The color coordination in this series references Warhol's, Marilyn silkscreen series. The colors and the sudo- silkscreen of the wig pictures were created by David Gamble using the Quantel Paintbox system over a series of weeks using complex techniques of reversing contrasts and mixing acid colors while keeping the original picture intact.

Charlotte Brooks' "Alien Neighbors, Foreign Friends"
Charlotte Brooks is an assistant professor of history and the co-chair of the Program in Asian and Asian American Studies at Baruch College, CUNY.
She applied the "Page 99 Test" to her new book, Alien Neighbors, Foreign Friends: Asian Americans, Housing, and the Transformation of Urban California, and reported the following:
In one way, page 99 of Alien Neighbors, Foreign Friends is not particularly representative of the book as a whole. Much of it consists of a 1939 quote from "My Day," the newspaper column that Eleanor Roosevelt wrote for many years. In this particular column, Mrs. Roosevelt mentions a private social research organization's report detailing the terrible housing conditions in San Francisco's Chinatown. In 1939, racial segregation confined almost every one of the city's 20,000 Chinese Americans to the overcrowded and terribly substandard neighborhood. Eleanor Roosevelt's inadvertent leaking of San Francisco's dirty little secret--that its biggest tourist attraction was also a slum--prompted widespread soul-searching among white city residents, who eventually came to support the construction of a public housing project (albeit a segregated one) for Chinese Americans in Chinatown.
While page 99 thus focuses on a specific public relations disaster and its aftermath, it also hints at the central argument of the book: that white Californians' view of Asian Americans as perpetual foreigners was central to the residential segregation of Chinese Americans and Japanese Americans before World War Two and to their increased integration by the 1950s. To white Californians, the Cold War changed the meaning and repercussions of discrimination against Asian Americans because so many whites equated them with Asians in Asia, where the U.S. was attempting to win hearts and minds and prove the superiority of capitalism.
Page 99 shows that attitudes towards Chinese Americans had already begun to shift by the late 1930s. The widespread support in San Francisco for a publicly-funded Chinese American housing project was extraordinary in a city with an almost century-long tradition of anti-Chinese activism. As the book shows, however, Mrs. Roosevelt's column came at a crucial moment: Japan had invaded China in 1937, and white Americans, even in San Francisco, began to fear Japan's ambitions and to express great sympathy for the beleaguered Chinese and their presumed surrogates, Chinese Americans. Page 99 thus highlights one instance of a common pattern: events overseas played more of a role in determining Asian American housing opportunities than did need or justice or the entitlements of citizenship.

Large Support Group Needed Sept. 8 in Mayo
Action Alert!, Floridians Against Fracking, fracking, Our Achievements
Amy Datz has just distributed sample resolutions to the commissioners
An anti-fracking ban is on the agenda for the Lafayette BOCC on Tues., Sept. 8 at 9 am in Mayo. JOIN US!
Amy Datz of Floridians Against Fracking drove from Tallahassee today to make an official request to be on their agenda on Sept. 8. Several others from the state-wide group also made the trip, including multiple OSFR members who had previously dropped off information packets there.
The five commissioners voted unanimously to place the issue on the agenda, so we need a large turnout on Sept. 8 at 9 am to support this ban, in the county court house on Main St. in Mayo.
As of this writing, it is calculated that approximately 31 per cent of Floridians are now represented by local governments that have gone on record as not wanting fracking in their jurisdictions.
Those who are familiar with fracking and its toll on our environment will appreciate these numbers, and the tireless work these dedicated individuals produce. These results are phenomenal and worthy of celebration, but there is much left to do.
This loyal group traveled from Tallahassee, Madison and Fort White to make the request.

Week 16 MVP watch: Matthew Stafford drops out of top 5, needs perfect finish
Tags: yard yards tds ints stafford
Matthew Stafford is down, but not out of the MVP race.
The Matthew Stafford hype train was nowhere to be seen in Week 15, as the Detroit Lions dropped a "Game of the Week" to the New York Giants. The Lions' offense only managed six points on the day, and Stafford's final line was an unimpressive 24 for 39 for 273 yards, 0 touchdowns and 1 interception. His play was definitely better than the final line suggests, but the truth is the Lions needed an MVP kind of performance from Stafford to win that game and they just didn't get it. This week he falls out of the top five MVP candidates entirely, but we'll talk more about that later. Here are my top five players right now.

1 - Matt Ryan (no change)
This week: 17-23, 286 yards, 2 touchdowns, 0 INTs vs. 49ers
Matt Ryan didn't have much of a challenge this week as he lit up a poor 49ers' defense early and coasted the rest of the way. Atlanta scored a touchdown on four of their first five possessions. They would have scored on all five were it not for a goal line fumble from Devonta Freeman.
Ryan didn't do anything spectacular in this game, but he was still very good. He leads the league in passer rating (114.8), yards per attempt (9.3) and is third in completion percentage (68.6). The Falcons are on the verge of clinching a playoff spot and Ryan's spectacular play is a huge reason for that.
2 - Ezekiel Elliott (up 2)
This week: 23 rushes, 159 yards (6.9 YPC), 1 TD; 3 receptions, 29 yards vs. Buccaneers
You can use all of the offensive line arguments you want with Ezekiel Elliott, but the man is leading the NFL rushing race by over 300 yards and that's extremely impressive, regardless of whether it's a rookie doing it or not.
Elliott also leads the league in rushes of 20+ yards (13) suggesting he's fully capable of blowing up a big play at any moment, and his 13 rushing touchdowns is second in the league, making him a huge red zone threat, too. Elliott is the full package right now, and it doesn't matter if you throw a solid defense like the Buccaneers at him right now, because he's tearing them apart, too.
3 - Tom Brady (no change)
This week: 16-32, 188 yards, 0 touchdowns, 0 INTs vs. Broncos
The Patriots didn't rely on Brady much this week, so he stays where he is. Brady completed a season-low percentage of passes, but this was a good Broncos' defense and he stayed out of the way while his running game and defense took care of the rest. A lot of people use the suspension argument against Brady for MVP consideration, but this game is more of a reason he shouldn't be the top candidate despite his statistics. The Patriots did just fine in a game they mostly used him as an afterthought. New England ran the ball more than they threw it, and their defense carried them to the win, not Brady.
4 - Aaron Rodgers (up 2)
This week: 19-31, 252 yards, 0 TDs, 0 INTs vs. Bears
Before you block this site for the rest of eternity, send me death threats and call me a Packers spy, hear me out. Aaron Rodgers has been absolutely on fire down the stretch, putting the team on his back with a bum hammy.
We like to talk about how Stafford has no help from a bad defense and an ever worse running game, but Rodgers is in a very similar situation, and with worse receiving options. On Sunday, he finally did get the benefit of a running game via an unlikely source—wide receiver Ty Montgomery, but check out Rodgers' stats over their past five games:
113-164 (68.9%), 1371 yards, 10 TDs, 0 INTs, 114.7 passer rating
The Packers went 4-1 over that stretch and suddenly can win their division by winning out. After proclamations that Rodgers was done, he suddenly ranks fifth in passer rating (100.3) and second in passing touchdowns (32). Like it or not, Rodgers is back, if he ever even left in the first place.
5 - Vic Beasley Jr. (N/A)
This week: 1 sack
With Matthew Stafford and Derek Carr not having notable weeks, it's time to give a defensive player some love. Vic Beasley is quietly having a career year. He leads the league in sacks with a whopping 14.5, and has six forced fumbles. The Falcons' defense gives up a lot of points and yards, but Beasley is good for nearly one-game changing play per game. Just watch him track down Colin Kaepernick here (h/t to Ryan Mathews for showing me the way of Beasley):
The closing speed by Vic Beasley
Say hello to the NFL leader in sacks with 14.5#SFvsATL #RiseUp https://t.co/AbpUiugElm
— Atlanta Falcons (@AtlantaFalcons) December 18, 2016
Honorable Mentions: Derek Carr, Matthew Stafford
What about Stafford?
As mentioned above, Stafford played better than his stats suggest, but over the past four games, Stafford and the Lions' offense just haven't been playing at an MVP level. Here are Stafford's stats from the past four games:
98-156 (62.8%), 1069 yards, 4 TDs, 3 INTs, 83.5 passer rating (1 rushing touchdown)
Compare that to Rodgers' statistics above and you can see why the tide is turning.
The good news is Stafford has two games—both likely to be primetime games—to change people's minds. If he manages to lead Detroit to two straight victories and looks like he did earlier in the season, he will absolutely shoot back up these rankings and could even come for Matt Ryan. Winning the NFC North would be no minor accomplishment, and if he does it for all of the league to see, people will start paying attention. That all starts on "Monday Night Football" against the media-darling Cowboys this week.

New Tennessee State basketball coach Brian "Penny" Collins confirmed Monday night he is hiring Southwest Tennessee Community College head coach Jerry Nichols as an assistant.
Nichols will become the first assistant hired by Collins, who was named the TSU coach on March 26.
Nichols has spent the last four seasons at Southwest Tennessee. Before that he was the coach and athletics director at Motlow State Community College.
Nichols was named the Tennessee Community College Athletic Association coach of the year this past season after leading Southwest Tennessee to a 24-5 record and a No. 18 ranking in the national junior college poll.
It was the fifth time in nine seasons that Nichols was the TCCAA coach of the year.
Nichols, a graduate of Westwood High in Memphis, played college basketball at Walters State and Arkansas State.
There are currently two former Nashville-area high school players on the Southwest Tennessee roster — freshman guards Donnie Malone from Antioch and Austin Fisher from Clarksville Academy.

View Full Version : Parking overnight somewhere near to Bristol airport?
Could anyone help with a spot to overnight near to Bristol airport?
Possibly on the coast but I need to be at the airport for 0630.
Also if AAA gone has information on where to park to see someone off for an hour or so, that would be good too.
The above certainly looks extremely convenient. You could always consider CU Nailsea as a fallback option.
I did spend the night at the location on the common land and had no problems.
Although there is a no overnight parking sign, no one worried us although there were comings and goings all night, which we found somewhat strange!!
This is so convenient for the terminal building being only a 10 minute walk.
The app on this site is just amazing.
Portishead...prob ok during the week but avoid Fri - Sat. It has a bad youth problem.

The Victoria, Dalston
Fishbowl Events are very excited to welcome Brazil's psych rockers, Firefriend to London as part of their world tour! Support comes from London's legendary dream pop band Frankie Teardrop Dead and Peak Jagged
There was a thread in American music in the late 1960s that someone untangled across the U.S., then stretched over to Europe, where it took root in 80s shoegaze. It ties together bands as disparate as the 13th Floor Elevators, the Velvet Underground, Sonic Youth, Mazzy Star, Blonde Redhead, and the Jesus & Mary Chain. It's noise rock or math punk or psychedelic or shoegaze or doom: It's the down-tuned sound of chaos and beauty, and while no one was looking, it also worked its way through the Americas and took root in Brazil under the name Firefriend.
The Black Hole (Little Cloud Records, 2017) - a tight three-song EP that clocks in at 21 minutes - is the eighth release from the Sao Paulo trio. This is music to play in the dark, a sonic soundscape made for dreaming beside the campfire or - as the title track demands - it's music for turning up and driving through the desert night with, full-tilt and fully immersed. The bass grooves move you along; the drums tell your heart to beat; the guitar-work needles its way into your subconscious and pulls forth demons; and the vocals ease you back to sleep.
Firefriend pulled that thread from the 60s and created something that feels like a bit of everything that thread ever touched. Their sound doesn't rush to the pop hook or stall itself in the crunchy riffs, it glides above everything else in its own orbit, echoing the best parts of psychedelic, shoegaze, and noise by taking it all into strange new fields of bliss. And with a vinyl release from Portland's Little Cloud Records, it can be heard as God intended at epic 45 rpm. Do yourself a favor: Turn the music on, the lights off, and let yourself go.
Following two critically acclaimed albums and successful headline performances, festival appearances and sharing the stage with the likes of The Brian Jonestown Massacre; The Telescopes; Magic Shoppe and The Cambodian Space Project, Frankie Teardrop Dead return with their highly anticipated third album Plane Eclipse.
Working from their sonic bunker deep inside the chaos of the concrete Fountayne Road in North London and recently relocating to the bustling music scene of Manchester, Frankie Teardrop Dead have been conjuring up their most ambitious project to date and are set to melt minds and blow the lid off the psychedelic rock'n'roll scene!
Formed in 2019, after regularly bumping into each other at gigs, Peak Jagged are new to London's psychedelic scene. Combining members of other London psych bands; Dorothy Vallens, Wasted Youth, Frankie Teardrop Dead, Persian Flowers and more, their hard hitting, spacey rock takes the audience through a climactic journey they wish would never end.
Frankie Teardrop Dead's influences are a lot like their band members, plucked from different time periods and gathered from all over the world, spliced together in a melting pot of reverb, delay and vintage tambourines.
In the two years the band has been together, they've written and recorded their first album "Better than some, worse than others", gigged many venues in the fair city of London, exchanged a few band members, and brought good vibes and sweet music to the earholes of anyone who cared to listen.
Responsible for these soul-soothing sounds reminiscent of Brian Jonestown Massacre and John Lennon are lead singer and rhythm guitarist Ben Jimenez, who along with backing vocalist and percussionist Carling Vail remain the founding members of the group. Providing the ethereal psychedelic lead lines is lead guitarist Sofiane Flamant, with the groovy backbone of the band coming from bassist Ben Stevens and many drummers
With a second album in the works and their individual brand of psychedelic shoe gaze gaining them more fans by the day, Frankie Teardrop Dead are set to continue their journey into the infra-sounds.

Tech Resolutions to Consider for 2013
Let's think differently about tech in 2013
Paul Thurrott | Dec 30, 2012
When you love this stuff as much as I do, technology is both the journey and the reward. But in deference to the needs of readers, who hopefully aren't sitting in a "Sanford and Son"-like disaster like that in my office, I try to preach pragmatism. And taking stock of my own regularly-used technologies, I'm ready to make some changes again in 2013. Here are a few you might consider for yourself.
You can chalk up this advice to a lazy, end-of-year mentality, I guess. But I do think of each New Year as a chance to better oneself, and while I won't bore you with my personal goals for next year, I do have thoughts about number of overdue tech-related changes too.
We all have multiple accounts with multiple online services and web sites, but with rare exception, most people simply use the same password, or simple variants of the same password, at each of these sites. There are lots of password strategies, of course, but this is perhaps the most important area to revisit at the start of the New Year. At the very least, take the time to change every single one of your passwords, and ensure you're not opening yourself up to a horrific cross-service identity attack by using a different password at each site and service. Obviously, that can be hugely problematic, so I recommend using a password management system like LastPass which also provides an automated strong password generator. And for central accounts, like your Microsoft or Google account, be sure to take advantage of their heightened security settings. For example, Microsoft has security proofs and Google uses two-factor authentication, both of which work similarly and help prevent your account from being seized by malicious hackers.
Like some of you, I subscribe to a bewildering array of services, and like many of you, perhaps, I've lost track of some of them. There are digital subscription services like Xbox Music Pass, Xbox LIVE Gold, Spotify, and the like, cloud storage services such as SkyDrive, CrashPlan, Dropbox, and so on, digital periodical subscriptions on Kindle, Google Play, and others, Netflix DVD and digital plans, and much, much more. My wife handles the finances, so I've asked her for a review of the regular monthly bills to our debit card with an eye towards evaluating which of these services we really do need or use. I suspect there will be at least a few—like an out of date Amazon S3 photo backup I've never accessed—that can be cancelled. Subscription services can be wonderful, of course, but they can also be financial death by a thousand tiny cuts.
I'll be writing a series of articles about this topic in the coming weeks, but my tech-related New Year resolution for 2013 is to reduce my need for local storage to an absolute minimum—a move I sort of think of as "zero data"—and place as much of my data—which includes documents, music, video, and photos—in the cloud as is possible, reducing my need for local, redundant, and easily failed hard disk storage. Your ability to do this will of course vary based on a number of factors, and you do need to be careful about adopting the right strategy. But I think technically inclined people tend to overthink things like this, and I'm going to move to eliminate the multiple terabytes of data I'm currently using. It's time to let go.
People often ask me to recommend the perfect Windows 8 laptop or similar, and while you'd think this would be fairly straightforward with all the hardware I use and test, it's not. Everyone has specific wants and needs, and uses computers—or, increasingly, non-PC computing devices like tablets—differently. So all I can really tell you is what the perfect computer is for me, and even that is something that changes as time marches forward. And Windows 8 has curiously made this problem even more pronounced, not just because of its emphasis on multi-touch but because of an amazing variety of new form factors.
With this in mind, I do have a few thoughts and bits of advice about new hardware device purchases in the coming year.
Wait. To say that the initial round of Windows 8 PCs and devices is underwhelming is simplistic but fair. Complicating matters is the stunning range of different form factors, which makes picking a type of PC/device, let alone a particular model, difficult. So unless you really, really need to buy right now for some reason, just wait. The market will improve with better PCs and devices and as reviewers gain a better appreciation for the different device types, good advice about which make sense in which situations will emerge.
PC vs. tablet. A couple of general statements about the PC/tablet debate, which will evolve as do these device types. PCs are for work and tablets are for play (unless your needs are very simple in which case a tablet may be able to do it all). PCs are PCs, but tablets are usually companion devices. PCs are long-term investments and tablets are (comparatively) disposable. Don't spend too much on either. Buy into ecosystems, not particular devices. This is all very pat and general, and by design. It's a big topic, and many will disagree with a lot of that.
And, of course hybrid devices are the proverbial wrench in the works. I do think that hybrid PCs—tablets that can dock to a desktop setup, perhaps, or tablets with keyboard bases-represent the future of computing, and that these designs will be the perfect hardware match to the similarly bipolar Windows 8 software, giving users a single device that can do it all. I have yet to see a device like this that I can recommend near universally, however. They'll come.
Get multi-touch. This advice will only be controversial with those who have never used such a machine: The next PC you buy, even if it's a traditional all-in-one desktop, Ultrabook, or whatever, should include multi-touch capabilities. Period. You may not think you want it, and you may not believe you'll ever use it. You're wrong on both counts.
Skip ARM and Windows RT for now. Now that the excitement over Microsoft's port of Windows 8 to the ARM architecture has settled down and we truly understand the compromise that Windows RT represents, my advice is simple: If you really want a Windows 8 tablet for some reason, get Windows 8, not Windows RT. A Windows 8 tablet running the Intel Atom "Clover Trail" chipset offers every single advantage of Windows RT with none of the compatibility downsides. And future Intel chipsets will ramp up the processing power to the point where ARM will be viewed as an interesting experiment that helped spur mainstream PCs forward. Or not. But as for today, there is no place for ARM devices in the Windows world in my opinion. I'll be watching this one closely going forward, of course.
By the way, my perfect PC doesn't exist: It would be a 15-inch version of the new, multi-touch-enabled Lenovo ThinkPad Carbon X1 Touch. I can dream.

Four Azure Considerations to Reduce Costs


The Blue Valley West band program travels often for marching, concert, and jazz band festivals. The Red & Silver Brigade usually goes to four competitions per year, with at least one being an overnight trip to a BOA Super Regional Competition. We also take a concert band trip every few years to places such as San Diego, Colorado, or even New York City! The ability to travel, perform, and compete with other bands from around the country is an extremely beneficial educational opportunity.
Since traveling this much is expensive, there's a fee to participate in the band program. Students have the option of how much and which ensembles they participate in. We never want money to be an obstacle to participation, so we offer multiple fundraisers throughout the year (and some ongoing) to allow anyone who wishes to raise part of the money for their band fee. Most of our fundraisers are individual - families can choose to participate, and the money they raise goes to directly offset their band fee. We've had some students fundraise their entire band program fee!
Below are some fundraising opportunities available to any families who choose to participate, along with contact info for their coordinators.
SCRIP is probably the easiest way to constantly earn money towards your band ledger by using gift cards to buy things you already need. SCRIP allows you to order gift cards to almost any retailer, restaurant, or store. Using these gift cards gives you a percentage award that goes straight back to your band ledger. Many band families use this for their weekly groceries, family dinners, or whatever else they can find! Some band families have paid their ENTIRE fee or most of it using SCRIP!
It couldn't be any easier to earn money for band fees! Each book costs $5 with $4 going straight into your student's band account.
As a band program, we try to have monthly dine-out nights to local restaurants who will give a percentage of their sales that evening to the band. We've had them at places like Panera, Red Robin, and Buffalo Wild Wings, and are planning many more. What easier way to feed your family, see all of your band friends, and support the band program!
Butter Braids are a very popular fundraiser. They are delicious pastries that sell very well to nearly anyone. Orders are placed during October, and the pastries are delivered frozen right before Thanksgiving. A sweet treat with great fundraising potential!
We partner with Olathe Ford & Lincoln to have a test drive event at Blue Valley West. They bring out a dozen cars, and for every test driver we provide, they donate $20 to the band program. EASY MONEY, and you get to drive a nice car! This is a mandatory fundraising event since the rewards are so easy.
Are you, a family member, community member, or business interested in supporting the BVW Jaguar Bands? Check out our sponsorship program! This is a great way to donate and support the entire band program without having to buy anything. All donations are tax deductible. Please see the document below for more information!


Oh this is my favorite part of the birthday party.
I know it's a little bit unconventional, but I get a kick out of gifting our guests some of our favorite products. If I were independently wealthy, I would probably be doing it all the time. I am not, so I only get to do it during events, like birthday parties and only thanks to my amazing sponsors below.
Usually, I have to get generic white gift bags since they are the only ones large enough to fit all the goodies and don't have characters on them. I stapled Stuck On You cards as labels on them to know who's getting which bags, since girls and boys got somewhat different items and I tried to customize each guest's bag to what I know about their preferences.
Here is all that the bags contained, minus a few items that arrived late.
Really cute mini sized dolls to carry with you on trips and to grandma's house. Their hair is long, perfect for grooming, they come in all skin colors and hair colors and have cute tiny dresses to dress them in.
Fishing Pole with Boon creatures and Water Pipes, which are my favorite and can be used very creatively in a bath tub, creating water chains.
These toys are a super cute and fun way to teach your toddler how to unzip, unbutton/button, unclasp, unbuckle their clothing items. They have numerous fun features to mess with and are perfect for children just starting to learn to dress themselves.
Very safe and cute nail polish designed for little kids who we don't want exposed to harsh nail polish chemicals. Natural as Mud is their tag line and it's a truly non-toxic fun way to give them their first mani/pedi.
Such a fun activity! You have one of the pirates hidden in this block that you have to excavate and then assemble, bone by bone.
It's really not a secret how much we love Babiators here. In fact, even the banner at The Art Of Making a Baby features these sunglasses. I have gifted these previously to my friends, because of how much I believe in the brand. So this was not an exception. Everyone received a Babiators pair in various colors.
While I didn't want the party to have a character theme, these were perfect for favor bags. Princess and Pirate cups, Sophia and Jake. Later it was reported to me that the kids LOVED these. Because of the characters. Of course.
And matching tableware set with a divided plate, bowl and utensils, again with Princess Sophia and Jake, the Pirate themes.
My personal favorite! Reminds me so much of my childhood, except for our kaleidoscopes didn't have the option to add gems and rings to create different colorful shapes. It will work with common objects, as well, like flower petals and coins. Lexi herself is in love with the kaleidoscope and plays with it at least once a day.
Again, thanks to my favorite brands for providing the products for the favor bags. Everyone enjoyed them greatly!

Q: Importing https://js.stripe.com/v3/ for use in google cloud functions I am developing an Angular7 application using Stripe and Google Cloud Functions. I am handling payments via Stripe.
In this instance, I am attempting to handle subscription payments. In order to do this, I require the Stripe library so I can call the APIs. According to the Stripe documentation, the library should be imported like so:
<script src="https://js.stripe.com/v3/"></script>
const stripe = Stripe('pk_test_.......');

This is not an issue in my actual app as I just place the script tag in my index.html and the variable stripe in my component. However, because I want to call these Stripe functions from my cloud functions, there is no index.html to import the library.
How can I import this so I can call the createPaymentMethod() function? Keep in mind that my cloud functions are written in Typescript too. See below:
export const createSubscription = functions.https.onCall(async (data, context) => {
    //Verify call is being made from user from app
    const uid = context.auth && context.auth.uid;
    const cardElement = data.cardElement

    if(!uid) return "error";

    const stripe = Stripe('sk_test_....');

    //Create payment method for customer
    const paymentMethod = await stripe_pub.createPaymentMethod('card', cardElementObj.card,
    {
        billing_details: {
        name: userName,
        email: firebaseUserEmail
        },
    });

In this case, I just get the error:
Property 'paymentMethods' does not exist on type 'Stripe'

I am actually able to import the actual stripe APIs themselves, using the installed library of https://github.com/stripe/stripe-node.
var stripe = require('stripe')('sk_test_...');

const paymentMethod = await stripe.paymentMethods.create('card',cardElementObj.card);

However, the subtle difference here is that, although both methods achieve the same outcome, they both take different parameters. I am using Stripe elements, which means I have a card element, which is useful in the first example, but, not the second, where you require the actual card number, expiry, etc. Hence why I want to import it using the first method.
Essentially, the question is, how can I import a JS file e.g.  into my Cloud Functions to be used?
Can anyone help me understand how to import this library for use in my cloud functions? Or maybe I could download the JS file and import it that way? Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!

A: You could use the Library from https://www.npmjs.com/package/stripe-angular.
Then you don't have to import the Module by yourself.
If you like to import the Module by yourself please follow the answered post in this question: In Angular 5, how can I import NPM modules with no @types

Way More Than Luck
Reviews and The Sparks
I was talking with the poet Conor O'Callaghan the other week about the dwindling number of poetry reviews published these days, particularly by the bigger publications and magazines. When his first full collection, The History of Rain, came out in 1993 with Ireland's Gallery Press, it apparently received around 25 reviews; I sincerely doubt many first books - even those published by the commercial presses - receive that kind of critical attention nowadays.
Unsurprisingly, poetry pamphlets and chapbooks (or short collections) receive even less attention from print magazines, with the notable and admirable exception of a few, particularly Poetry London and its autumn round-up of their 'top ten' (or so) pamphlets of the year. Increasingly then, much reviewing of poetry seems to take place online, in magazines like those I mentioned here recently, and on various widely-read literary blogs. And why not? Many of these blog writers are published poets and reviewers for print and online magazines themselves (myself included), so the blog is the perfect vehicle for reviewing books and pamphlets that print magazines don't have the room for.
One such writer is Tony Williams, a poet soon to have his first collection published by Salt, who also keeps a poetry blog featuring occasional reviews. And I was delighted to discover recently that he's written a generous and insightful review of my pamphlet The Sparks, the second to appear this year, on the back of Noel Williams' piece in arts magazine Now Then. Williams' review also takes in Matthew Clegg's sequence pamphlet Edgelands, published last year by Longbarrow Press. Worth checking out.

POETRY IN MOTION Why one Reds supporter is committing his love for Liverpool FC to verse Liverpool FC and poetry have a lot of previous – from John Toshack's Gosh It's Tosh collection in the late 70s, to the verse of Dave Kirby and Peter Etherington in the fanzine Red All Over the Land , to the lines written by poet laureate Carol Ann Duffy, a University of Liverpool graduate, in the aftermath of 2012's Hillsborough findings. Now there's Ben Wilkinson, Reds fan and book critic for The Guardian and the Times Literary Supplement , who's compiling a series of poems commemorating the club's legends. "Football is part of the fabric of life, and anything that's important to people finds its way into poetry," he says.

Philip Larkin's 'MCMXIV' compares boys queuing to join the army to fans outside Villa Park. These poems have stood th

They take no thought for the morrow, not like you in your new job. - It paid for my flowers, now already stricken in years. The stiff cornflowers bleach, their blue rinse grows out. The marigolds develop a stoop and go bald, orange clowns, straw polls, their petals coming out in fistfuls ... Hard to take you in your new professional pride - a salary, place of work, colleagues, corporate spirit - your new femme d'affaires haircut, hard as nails.

'World is crazier and more of it than we think, incorrigibly plural'. Even if you're not that well-versed in modern British and Irish poetry, chances are you'll still know 'Snow', or a line or two from the poem will seem naggingly familiar. While still in his twenties, Louis MacNeice wrote it in 1935, and since then, it's been a favourite with readers, writers and editors, cropping up in every kind of poetry anthology. Weird, then, that MacNeice's work has often been seen as a footnote to that of his illustrious pal W.H. Auden, when he's so clearly a hugely original poet in his own right. And when, among more recent generations, the likes of Seamus Heaney, Michael Longley, Derek Mahon, Don Paterson and Conor O'Callaghan have all cited him as a major influence in their own writing. It's not like 'Snow' was a one hit wonder, either. Despite some of the less exciting – and often lengthy – stuff he wrote in the early 50s, MacNeice only got better, perfecting his moving, atmospheric an

What causes sulfated plates to occur in a battery?
In addition, the sulfate portion (of the lead sulfate) is not returned to the electrolyte as sulfuric acid. It is believed that large crystals physically block the electrolyte from entering the pores of the plates. Sulfation can be avoided if the battery is fully recharged immediately after a discharge cycle.

What does it mean to Desulfate a battery?
The lead sulfate crystals are broken down (more or less successfully) in the charge cycle. Sometimes some crystals remain, or sometimes a battery is left partially discharged where the crystals of lead sulfate harden, and reduce the capacity of the battery to be charged. This is what desulfation (desulphation)is about.
What is a Ni MH battery?
A nickel metal hydride battery, abbreviated NiMH or Ni–MH, is a type of rechargeable battery. The chemical reaction at the positive electrode is similar to that of the nickel–cadmium cell (NiCd), with both using nickel oxide hydroxide (NiOOH).
Which is better Nicad or lithium ion?
Typically, Lithium-ion batteries are smaller and lighter than a NiCad battery. Lithium-ion also two to three times more expensive than NiCad. On the other hand, Lithium-ion has virtually no self-discharge. An 18V Lithium-ion battery has the same potential to deliver power as an 18V NiCad battery.18V is 18V.
Which brand of power tools is best?
Hitachi, Makita, Panasonic, and Worx are sold primarily online, though Makita products are also available at local specialty retailers and Home Depot.
Black+Decker. Black+Decker is one of the leading manufacturers and marketers of cordless drills.
Bosch.
Craftsman.
DeWalt.
Hitachi.
Porter-Cable.
Do AGM batteries get sulfated?
The sulfuric acid is absorbed by a very fine fiberglass mat, making the battery spill-proof. While regular lead acid batteries need a topping charge every six months to prevent the buildup of sulfation, AGM batteries are less prone to sulfation and can sit in storage for longer before a charge becomes necessary.
What voltage to charge an AGM battery?
Deep Cycle AGM:- AGM batteries should be charged using a charger with a mode switch for AGM type batteries. It is recommended to use a charger, current limited to 20% or 0.2C of the batteries capacity at a charging voltage of between 14.6 – 14.8V following deep cycle use, or 13.6V – 13.8V for standby use.
What is a battery Desulfator?
A battery regenerator is a device that restores capacity to lead-acid batteries, extending their effective lifespan. They are also known as desulphators, reconditioners or pulse conditioning devices.
What is a deep cycle car battery?
A deep-cycle battery is a lead-acid battery designed to be regularly deeply discharged using most of its capacity. In contrast, starter batteries (e.g. most automotive batteries) are designed to deliver short, high-current bursts for cranking the engine, thus frequently discharging only a small part of their capacity.
How long will a 12 volt battery run a refrigerator?
A very small user of power is a 1.2 watt LED light running on a 12 volt power source will use 1.2W / 12V = 0.1 amps. Therefore a 100ah (amp hour) battery will last for 1000 hours. A slightly different example is a 60 watt fridge running on a 12 volt power source uses 60 /12 = 5 amps, but only while the motor runs.
How many watts are in an amp hour?
Power in Watts = Current in Amps x Voltage. A battery rated for 100 amp hours will provide 5 amps for 20 hours. If we have a 12 volt battery, we multiply 100 by 12 and determine that the battery will provide 1200 watt hours.
Can you use a 12v 5ah battery to replace a 12v 4ah battery?
The only difference is in the amp hour capacity verified by the slight weight difference. Now most people choose to upgrade their 12V 4ah battery to the 5ah version. But if you wanted to save a little cash, or the 4ah was all that was available you could replace a 12V 5Ah battery with the 4 amp hour one.
How many volts should a 12 volt battery have?
The actual resting voltage, or the voltage a battery will settle at 12-24 hours after being removed from the charger, is closer to 2.1 volts per cell, or about 6.4 volts for a 6v battery, and 12.7 volts for a 12v battery. These numbers assume 100% healthy cells, and may vary a bit lower for older batteries.
How does battery sulfation occur?
Sulfation, a build-up of lead sulfate crystals, is the number one cause of early failures of lead-acid, sealed AGM or flooded (wet cell-filler caps) batteries. A sulfated battery can lead to: loss of cranking power. longer charging times.
Do batteries give off gas?
The charging of lead-acid batteries can be hazardous. However, many workers may not see it that way since it is such a common activity in many workplaces. The two primary risks are from hydrogen gas formed when the battery is being charged and the sulfuric acid in the battery fluid.
Which acid is found in car batteries?
Each cell provides 2.1 volts for a total of 12.6 volts at full charge. Each cell of a lead storage battery consists of alternate plates of lead (cathode) and lead coated with lead dioxide (anode) immersed in an electrolyte of sulfuric acid solution.
How exactly does a car battery work?
Your car battery provides the zap of electricity needed to put electrical components to work. It also converts chemical energy into the electrical energy that powers your car and delivers voltage to its starter. And it stabilizes the voltage (a.k.a. energy supply) that keeps your engine running.
What is the battery made out of?
The electrodes in the battery contain atoms of certain conducting materials. For instance, in an alkaline battery, the anode is typically made of zinc, and manganese dioxide acts as the cathode. And the electrolyte between and inside those electrodes contains ions.
How do you neutralize battery acid?
Part 2 Cleaning the Spill
Use baking soda to neutralize lead-acid or nickel cadmium spills.
Clean up alkaline spills with mild household acid.
Wipe up lithium spills with water.
Dispose of the batteries.
Clean the electrical contacts (optional).
What is battery stratification?
Battery stratification is caused when the sulfuric acid in the electrolyte mixture separates from the water and begins to concentrate at the bottom of the battery. This increased concentration of acid increases the formation of lead sulfate (sulfation).
What is a constant voltage charger?
Constant Voltage A constant voltage charger is basically a DC power supply which in its simplest form may consist of a step down transformer from the mains with a rectifier to provide the DC voltage to charge the battery. Such simple designs are often found in cheap car battery chargers.
How does the battery work?
The cathode and anode (the positive and negative sides at either end of a traditional battery) are hooked up to an electrical circuit. The chemical reactions in the battery causes a build up of electrons at the anode. This results in an electrical difference between the anode and the cathode.
What is a sulfation?
Sulfation occurs when a lead acid battery is deprived of a full charge. This is common with starter batteries in cars driven in the city with load-hungry accessories. A motor in idle or at low speed cannot charge the battery sufficiently.
What is Sulphation?
A "sulphated" battery is one which has been left standing in a discharged condition or undercharged to the point where abnormal lead sulphate has formed on the plates. When this occurs the chemical reactions within the battery are impeded and loss of capacity results. CAUSES.
What is battery water made of?
Conventional lead acid batteries contain a liquid that is electrolyte. Which is a mixture of sulfuric acid and water. Under normal conditions a battery loses only water (in the form of vapor, hydrogen and oxygen), and only water should be replaced.
How does a lithium ion battery work?
Lithium-ion batteries are great because they are rechargeable. When the battery is connected to a charger, the lithium ions move in the opposite direction as before. As they move from the cathode to the anode, the battery is restored for another use.
What is the anode in a lead acid battery?
Chemistry. The lead acid battery uses lead as the anode and lead dioxide as the cathode, with an acid electrolyte. During the charging process, the reactions at each electrode are reversed; the anode becomes the cathode and the cathode becomes the anode.
What is charging and discharging of battery?
A rechargeable battery, storage battery, secondary cell, or accumulator is a type of electrical battery which can be charged, discharged into a load, and recharged many times, as opposed to a disposable or primary battery, which is supplied fully charged and discarded after use.
Is a lead acid battery wet or dry?
Wet cell (flooded), gel cell, and absorbed glass mat (AGM) are various versions of the lead acid battery. The wet cell comes in two styles; serviceable and maintenance free. Both are filled with electrolyte and are basically the same.
What is the popular name for an electrochemical cell?
The electrochemical cells which generate an electric current are called voltaic cells or galvanic cells and the other ones are called electrolytic cells which are used to drive chemical reactions like electrolysis. A common example of an galvanic cells is a standard 1.5 - volt cell meant for consumer use.
