a day in britain
For the third time in its history, the Tour de France is visiting the UK, this time for two stages including yesterday's grand depart and today's road stage from London to Canterbury. A Scot named David Millar who has won prologues before was the UK's great hope for the yellow jersey and he did finish respectably but not close enough to the top for today's intermediate sprint points to put him in yellow. Millar isn't enough of a bunch sprinter to win the stage or win the green jersey of sprint leader, and (unlike last year in Holland) this isn't a good course to be won in a breakaway. He's too old to wear the white jersey of Best Young Rider. That leaves the polka-dot jersey.
The Polka-dot jersey is for the best climber, and it's allocated based on points for the first rider over various hills, passes, and mountains. Mostly it's decided in the second week of the race when the riders visit the Alps and the Pyrenees, but to keep the race interesting there are also points on offer for smaller rises at the beginning and end of the race. Sometimes the climbing classification has been close enough for the few points for a small hill on the last day can make the difference. And having some points at the beginning of the ride gives some more incentive for sprints and especially breakaways in the first week. Often the first couple of days don't have any points at all, though, because you do have to come up with something tall enough to be worth calling a hill. There aren't any hills tomorrow, and there's only one on Tuesday's stage, but there were three today, and that's what Millar decided he was going to chase.
Here's the thing, though. Millar does not have enough endurance to do an all-day breakaway, either by himself or in a small group. He's not enough of a sprinter to be assured of climbing points if someone else is with him, which compounds this problem: in order to get points the breakaway has to be solo and therefore more energy-consuming. And riders in long breakaways that get caught often have trouble keeping up with the group after they get caught because they're so tired. So what's Millar's strategy today? Ideally, he'd break away in the first half of the race, get enough points in the first two hills (which are relatively close together) to be assured of the polka-dot jersey and could then let himself get caught by the pack and ride the rest of the way to Canterbury, perhaps contesting points on the third hill if there were no breakaway there. This is what he did, and when four people followed him in the breakaway he did not wait for them to take advantage of sharing the work until after the first climbing points. Finding himself in a group breakaway he decided to try to outsprint his companions in the second climb, but it's not surprising that he wasn't able to beat out any of the other riders. After two hills, he's tied for three points with Freddy Bichot who won the second climb, and Stephane Auge is tied for second at two. At which point he has a choice: Try to stay ahead for the third climb, and probably finish 5 minutes behind the pack at the end, or fall back to the pack, have his teammates give chase to the rest of the breakaway, and try to win the final points of the day from the group, having had a chance to recuperate, and safe in the knowledge that his 3-point lead over the rest of the pack means that the only other riders with any motivation to contest the last hill are too tired from their long breakaway to do so.
Millar chose to fall back. Auge chose to stay out front -- and Auge did in fact make it to the next climb, barely, and picked up three points for a total of five. Millar was not expecting this, but he was able to take second from the pack, whereas Auge was dropped by the pack and lost several minutes at the end. When there's a tie, it's broken by overall placement, so this puts Millar in the coveted polka-dot jersey tomorrow morning, and Tuesday morning too. Quite an accomplishment for the Brit on his home turf.
And meanwhile I keep finding it amusing to read about the "Côte de Farthing Common".

Stoops: WR Dorian Baker has 'substantial' ankle injury
LEXINGTON, Ky. — Kentucky coach Mark Stoops says senior wide receiver Dorian Baker has sustained a "fairly substantial" ankle injury and is awaiting word from doctors on its severity.
Stoops revealed Baker's injury after Saturday's second scrimmage and added that he hopes to have an update next week. The 6-foot-3, 211-pounder from Cleveland Heights, Ohio, is listed as one of the starting receivers and looks to bounce back after missing three games early last year following a preseason hamstring injury. Baker had 14 catches for 208 yards and two touchdowns, with one TD each in Kentucky's final two contests.
On Monday the school announced that senior starting left tackle Cole Mosier tore his right anterior cruciate ligament in last week's scrimmage, a knee injury that ended his college career.

Interesting to see that you're still "obsessed" with homosexuality. Most non-LGBTQ people obsessed with homosexuality, turn out to have their own issues, but I'll take you at your word that it doesn't apply to you.
Once again you are trying to make the argument that Christianity is morally superior to all other religions. I can understand that you believe that Christianity works for you, and that your faith leads you to believe that acceptance of Jesus is the only way to heaven, but that doesn't make it morally superior. There are moral and immoral individuals in all religions, tribes and nations. We are all made in the image of God, who gave us free will to know the difference between good and evil.
I hope you are paying attention to the fact that most fundamentally Christians in the US support a racist, adulterous, lying, bullying autocrat. You must be so proud!
I hope you and yours are doing well. For the sake of clarity, I need to note that you haven't responded to any argument in the post. What you've done is your own psychoanalysis of me along with drawing your own conclusion(s) about my motives. But out of respect for you, I'll respond to you by pointing that out.
I agree with you about this: "There are moral and immoral individuals in all religions, tribes and nations. We are all made in the image of God, who gave us free will to know the difference between good and evil." So I'll also note that point of agreement and add that it is consistent with the biblical worldview, but not consistent with naturalism, pantheism, or Islam. It's nice to know we're on the same page about that.
The Christianity Today article is behind a paywall, so I can't read much of it. I agree with you that there is no biblical commend to be heterosexual.
There are, however, larger ideals about where (or rather in whom) a Christian's identity comes from. It comes from Christ himself.
Yes, the only biblical mandate is to abstain from homosexual behavior, and that would include behavioral choices of the mind, namely lust.
Was there a point you wanted to make with the Keller piece and connect to Abdu Murray's points or something from Saving Truth?
Mostly just to echo what you said above, it demonstrates that our identity does not wholly come from within, as our culture preaches, but also largely from without, and for the Christian, that means from Christ.

Hormonal imbalance is very common among people of all age groups, but the type of it depends on many different factors. For example, the imbalance of thyroid hormones is much more common in women than in men. Women usually experience more pronounced symptoms of hormonal imbalance during menopausal period than men of the same age. People of different age can also experience hormonal imbalance in a different way. For example, the lack of the growth hormone during childhood leads to lower growth speed than normal, which results in lower height after puberty than average. In adults, growth hormone deficiency can produce increased fat content, loss of muscle mass, general feeling of weakness, and even mental disorders, such as anxiety and depression.
Here we present some symptoms, which may be a signal that you have some sort of hormonal imbalance.
If you often feel like you don't have enough energy for daily activities, that you get tired more quickly than usual, or that you are sleepy more than usual, than you should think about thyroid hormone deficiency. This condition can appear due to Hashimoto thyroiditis (chronic autoimmune inflammation of the thyroid gland), and the symptoms are usually very mild in the beginning, until the thyroid hormone levels drop significantly. Detection of the specific antibodies and low levels of thyroid hormones is enough to make this diagnosis. To restore the balance, you need to take substitution therapy with thyroid hormones.
Imbalance of several hormones can contribute to developing these symptoms. Increased levels of thyroid hormones, adrenalin, and noradrenalin are just some of them. The symptoms are mild at first, but after some time they become more pronounced. You should visit your doctor in order to investigate the exact cause of the problem, and then start the appropriate treatment.
If you notice quick weight loss, despite intake of enough calories, you may consider some hormonal imbalance. Similarly, excess weight gain without changing caloric intake and/or activity level is also sometimes related to hormonal imbalance. It is hard to specify which hormone is responsible for these symptoms without deeper examination, but almost all hormones are in some way involved in the regulation of your metabolism.
Switching to a healthy lifestyle is not easy, especially in today's modern world. However, it may be a necessary step to move towards restoring hormonal imbalance. First you should quit smoking and lower alcohol intake, if you are a kind of person who enjoys these things. Try to eat food rich in dietary fibers and vitamin, and avoid processed food with additives and artificial sweeteners. Increase your physical activity, as it has been proven that moderate physical activity is beneficial for establishing hormonal level balance.
Some herbs are well known by their positive effect on hormone levels and human health in general. This is because of their so-called adaptogene effect. In other words, they help the organism to adapt to new circumstances, partly by increasing levels of protective hormones and decreasing the levels of stress hormones. The most powerful herbs from this group include: Ashwaganda, Ginseng, Rhodiola, and Cordycep mushrooms.
Vitamin D3 acts as an immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory agent. Although the human organism requires this vitamin in low daily dosages in order to function normally, scientists have discovered many benefits of taking higher doses of Vitamin D3. Some of them include lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels, improved functioning of the nervous system, and balancing hormonal levels.

A 16-yr Follow-up of the European Randomized study of Screening for Prostate Cancer.
The European Randomized study of Screening for Prostate Cancer (ERSPC) has previously demonstrated that prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening decreases prostate cancer (PCa) mortality.
To determine whether PSA screening decreases PCa mortality for up to 16yr and to assess results following adjustment for nonparticipation and the number of screening rounds attended.
This multicentre population-based randomised screening trial was conducted in eight European countries. Report includes 182160 men, followed up until 2014 (maximum of 16yr), with a predefined core age group of 162389 men (55-69yr), selected from population registry.
The outcome was PCa mortality, also assessed with adjustment for nonparticipation and the number of screening rounds attended.
The rate ratio of PCa mortality was 0.80 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.72-0.89, p<0.001) at 16yr. The difference in absolute PCa mortality increased from 0.14% at 13yr to 0.18% at 16yr. The number of men needed to be invited for screening to prevent one PCa death was 570 at 16yr compared with 742 at 13yr. The number needed to diagnose was reduced to 18 from 26 at 13yr. Men with PCa detected during the first round had a higher prevalence of PSA >20ng/ml (9.9% compared with 4.1% in the second round, p<0.001) and higher PCa mortality (hazard ratio=1.86, p<0.001) than those detected subsequently.
Findings corroborate earlier results that PSA screening significantly reduces PCa mortality, showing larger absolute benefit with longer follow-up and a reduction in excess incidence. Repeated screening may be important to reduce PCa mortality on a population level.
In this report, we looked at the outcomes from prostate cancer in a large European population. We found that repeated screening reduces the risk of dying from prostate cancer.

Цу́меб (, , гереро: Okavisume, нама: Kaitsumeb) — город в Намибии.

География
Рудный город Цумеб расположен на севере Намибии, в 400 километрах к северу от столицы страны Виндхука. Вместе с городами Отави и Гротфонтейн, Цумеб лежит в так называемом «треугольнике Отави», высокоразвитом сельскохозяйственном районе в горах Отави с высоким уровнем осадков (в Цумебе — около 550 мм). До августа 2008 года Цумеб был административным центром намибийской области Ошикото.

Климат

История
Название города Цумеб происходит от бушменского слова tsomsoub, означающего копать в земле большую дыру. Первыми жителями района нынешнего Цумеба были бушмены, открывшие в горах Отави месторождения меди, научившихся выплавлять из руды металл и наладивших торговлю им с жившими севернее племенами овамбо.

В первой половине XIX столетия в горный район Отави были организованы европейцами несколько экспедиций с тем, чтобы разведать путь и возможности промышленной добычи меди. Впрочем, эти попытки окончились неудачей. Лишь в 1893 году английская Компания Юго-Западной Африки получила право от колониальных властей Германской Юго-Западной Африки на разработку здесь медных месторождений, а в конце 1900 года первая партия добытой руды в повозках была отправлена в Свакопмунд (и оттуда в Европу).

Богатство обнаруженных месторождений, дававших не только медь, но и свинец, цинк и до 200 других редких минералов (например, здесь впервые был обнаружен минерал , названный в честь разработчика местного месторождения, компании Tsumeb Corporation), потребовало строительства железной дороги от посёлка рудодобытчиков Цумеб до Свакопмунда. Строительство этой железной дороги, на которую в качестве рабочей силы насильно сгонялись местные гереро и овамбо, а также отчуждение под строительство земель местных племён, вызвало в 1904 году восстание гереро. Тем не менее, в 1906 году железная дорога была построена. В 1907 в Цумебе был проведён водопровод.

Во время Первой мировой войны на север колонии отступали отряды германских колониальных войск, а в Цумеб бежал последний немецкий губернатор Германской Юго-Западной Африки. К концу 1914 года города Цумеб, Гротфонтейн и Кораб, удерживаемые немцами, окружили до 60 тысяч южноафриканских солдат. После ожесточённых боёв 9 июля 1915 года германское командование подписало акт о капитуляции, однако перед этим немцы утопили в озере Очикото огромное количество своего вооружения. Лишь после окончания уже Второй мировой войны аквалангистам-любителям удалось поднять часть из этого оружия; ныне оно хранится в Городском музее Цумеба.

В настоящее время, и особенно после получения Намибией независимости, значительная часть горнодобывающих и металлургических предприятий Цумеба переживают кризис.

Ah, Australia, the beautiful land of hot weather and even hotter people. It seems like whenever you see someone from Down Under, they look happy and carefree as they lounge on a beach. What a perfect destination during long, cold winter days of the Northern Hemisphere. What doesn't cross most people's minds is the idea to visit Australia during the summer months. Why would you be switching from one winter to yet another? Well, there are several reasons why this country is still great even during its winter period.
Australia's peak tourist season falls between December and February because these are the warmest months. If you go then, you'll have a great time, but it's likely you'll be spending a lot of money. Winter months are a lot cheaper and you won't be missing out on anything if you decide to go. Accommodations are easier to find too, and everything is less crowded, so you can enjoy your vacation in peace instead of fighting for a good spot at the beach.
Australia is a pretty big continent, so the weather varies from place to place. There is something for everyone's taste, from cold to warm enough to swim. Forget the cold Chicago and New York winters, you won't be snowed in, despairing over the weather. Winter here is milder, more pleasant. There is less humidity and fewer rain showers than in summer, so it's really a nice time of the year to visit. The weather can range from crisp in cities like Melbourne, Canberra, and Hobart, to mild in Sydney, to warm in Darwin and Brisbane. You won't need to pack a bunch of jumpers and heavy coats unless you're going skiing, in which case we assume the cold is kind of what you're going for.
Did you think that it would be too cold to visit beaches? Think again, because winter is the perfect time for you to enjoy both surfing and swimming on some of Australia's many beaches. Smalleys Beach and Cable Beach are both very warm in summer, but even the colder beaches can be enjoyed. Hope Beach in Tasmania is one of the rare places where you can find the perfect spot to watch the beautiful display of light known as Aurora Australis.
If skiing is your thing, then head for the Snowy Mountains in New South Wales or the Victorian Alps in Victoria. Get your equipment from a well-stocked ski store in Australia and make sure to visit Thredbo or Perisher, the two most famous ski resorts. It would be a shame to waste all that beautiful snow, and even if you don't know how to ski, now's the perfect time to learn.
If you ever wanted to visit the Outback, winter is actually a much better time to do so. In summer, the Outback is a scorching hot desert, but in winter you'll actually be able to drive around without passing out from high temperatures. Drive from Darwin to Uluru (Ayer's Rock) and enjoy the beautiful scenery. The Blue Mountains are great if you enjoy hiking, and if you're a wine and cheese lover, you should definitely visit Barossa Valley.
VIVID also happens during winter and it's one of the most fascinating festivals that you can see. A wonder of light installations and music, it's a truly unique experience that you don't want to miss. Sydney Film Festival also happens during the cold months, and so does Splendour in the Grass, Australia's biggest winter music event.
There's plenty to do, and plenty to see in Australia, regardless of the time of the year. If you go during winter, you're bound to have fun adventures and you'll be back with stories to tell your friends.


It's an extraordinary time to be a therapist. Our field of psychotherapy is undergoing an evolutionary upgrade with unprecedented breakthroughs and massive paradigm shifts in neuroscience, trauma resolution, somatic therapy, couples therapy, and mindfulness research! We're truly experiencing an exciting renaissance.
I believe our community is helping humanity grow and expand beyond what we ever thought possible. I also believe we should support and help each other grow and thrive to master the principles of attachment and trauma resolution.
As therapists, we need PRACTICAL knowledge that we can actually use in our practice to help make a lifetime impact on our clients at the same time, helping you grow a strong practice. What's critical is not more information, but WISDOM shared from those who are using it on a day-to-day basis.
Imagine tapping into the latest cutting-edge research, tools, and advances in the therapy world every month.
...then look no further, because the Therapy Mastermind Circle gives you all these things and more to help you in your practice.
We have an exciting first-year curriculum and a powerful lineup of experts planned.
I look forward to seeing you in our Therapy Mastermind Circle.
P.S. I'm excited because we have the "Who's Who" in the therapy world – leading authors, researchers, and practitioners – already on board for monthly expert calls (see the BONUS section below).
P.P.S. Registration is open for only a few days, and our first call is later this month, so join us now!
of Therapy Experts and Practitioners!
Each month you will get direct access to teaching videos from Diane Poole Heller based on quarterly and monthly themes. You'll also get the audio files and PDF transcripts of the video teachings so you can listen or print out the transcripts.
Each month we will be on a training call to discuss the video teachings; more importantly, it is on these calls that we will review Case Consults submitted by you and discuss how to integrate this work into your practice.
Experience the power of being in a group of fellow therapists who are rising to the top of their fields. Together, we'll enjoy the benefits of sharing support, resources, and knowledge in our private community.
We will bring our attention to Personality Disorders and working with our most complex cases, including the correlation to Attachment patterning when relevant. In the continuum of these wounded states one of the more problematic manifestations of the Attachment disruption can result in a neurotic tendency or, in extreme cases, a Personality Disorder.
Describe at least 2 somatic techniques you can use to complete Anger/Self-protective responses?
Explain the importance of resolving early trauma history for the OCPD.
Describe 2 ways to work with an OCPD client in a relational field.
Design ways to quiet the harsh internal critic?
Identify one way to manage complicated transference and stabilize disrupted relationships.
Utilize techniques of how to address abandonment depression for the Borderline client.
Re-balancing over intellectualization and underdeveloped emotional responsiveness – as well as appreciating brilliancy in the mind. Or more simply, connecting mind, heart, and body.
Understanding and acknowledging the counter-transference related to the hurt and a sense of unworthiness that often underlies a lack of empathy and grandiosity.
Supporting integration of primitive splitting between idealization and the anger from perceived abandonment. This flipping between "You're the BEST or You're the WORST" can threaten any relationship - including the therapeutic alliance.
Working with severe trauma, ANS dys-regulation, encapsulated child states, as well as the disorienting Attachment disruption underlying Dissociative Identity Disorder. We also honor the role and resiliency in using "controlled dissociation" as a step toward healing and integration of "parts."
Learning relational skills and somatic strategies directed towards ameliorating the sense of vulnerability that arises in clients experiencing the brain "fixations" or "loops" that characterize OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder).
Working with the very creative and emotionally responsive personalities of HSP (Highly Sensitive People) clients to help them manage their extreme sensitivity and avoid becoming overwhelmed by the stimuli to which they are so permeable. You will learn, for example, how to teach HSP clients practical strategies to differentiate between their feelings and the feelings of others so they are able to regain their sense of self and improve physiological regulation as well as emotional balance.

They help to assuredly guide boards so that they pass through the saw straight and easily, and also keep your hands up and away from running saw blades. However, most handmade push blocks, and push blocks provided by the other guys, haven't changed much over the years. They simply don't have the gripping power and aren't optimized to ensure a completely safe, no-slip experience in the shop, and as a result they require more elbow grease to work with. Now, the Grr-Rip Block by Microjig is here to take the uncertainty and difficult work out of getting precise cuts quickly on your table saw. Microjig makes all of their products around the idea that working smarter is always better and more efficient than working harder, and the Grr-Rip Block is proof of that motto.
Grr-Rip Blocks feature proprietary no-slip Green Grr-Rip gripping material. This material is made up of high-quality rubber and risen bumps that individually conform to the wood surface while allowing dust and debris to pass through easily which means nothing comes between you and a firm hold while sawing. A sliding grip can unnerve even the most skilled craftsman but the Grr-Rip Block takes the fear out of the job so that all you need to focus on is your cut. The block also features Smart Hooks that drop down at the bottom of your board for added support. The hooks are so smart because they automatically retract mid-cut; they can also be locked in their position if needed. Everything about this tool is designed specifically to be the one-stop solution for all your push block frustrations.
Grr-Rip Blocks and many other fine Microjig products are available for purchase and delivery online, but also at Menard's and local hardware stores all across the Midwest!


I pray on behalf of AFK who has been unemployed for more than a year now. Everyday is a daily battle and struggle for him, boredom and idleness is testing his patients. Many times he lost hope and was on the brink of giving up, even trying to end his own fate. Please dear Lord, help him to go on one day at a time, help him never to give up hope, for hope is all we have.
Always shield AFK from his suffering and never ending pain since childhood, be his strength and give him unfailing strength to bear with it all. Make him a channel of your peace Lord, even if he is a non believer, show him your love Lord. I do not know how long I will be able to keep him sane and positive, I too need your help Lord to help AFK in return, I am burdened by my own responsibilities, bills and emotions, and trying to stay positive and not to loose my cool is sometimes too demanding.
Dear Lord, AFK recently went for an interview for managerial position which is suitable for his Masters qualification, this is the defining moment for your divine intervention Lord, please make sure AFK gets this position, since he is the only candidate that was interviewed according to his experience and qualification.I believe this is your master plan, your wish and your plan for him. I can feel it in my heart that he will be employed soon.
Thank you for hearing my prayer. Amen.
Cancer – the deadly disease which has snatched many of our loved ones from us, is one of the most common diseases with which we are faced today. We need to pray to our Lord Jesus Christ for his mercy and compassion. We need to pray for the sufferings of all those who are afflicted by Cancer. May the Lord Almighty hear our prayers and heal the Cancer Patients. Here is a prayer for all the Cancer Afflicted.
O great Saint Peregrine, you who bore in your own flesh this cancerous disease, and were favored with the vision of Jesus Christ coming down from his cross to heal your affliction, ask of God and our Lady, the cure of these sick people whom we entrust to you.

New York State Archives Invites Students to Enter Student Research Awards Contest
The New York State Archives invites students statewide to enter the 27th Annual Student Research Awards Contest. The contest is open to all New York State students in grades 4 – 12 who use historical records in their research projects. The deadline for entries is July 1, 2017. Three awards will be presented in the fall of 2017.
"We're proud to host the Student Research Awards Contest for the children of our state," said Board of Regents Chancellor Betty Rosa. "Students are invited to use primary source materials to conduct a research project and discover new things about history, their communities and themselves."
"Through programs like the Student Research Awards Contest, we recognize and encourage the excellent research students do across the state," said State Education Commissioner MaryEllen Elia. "I ask teachers to encourage your students to submit their research projects that use historical records in this contest. We look forward to naming the award winners next fall."
"The Student Research Award program encourages students to go beyond textbooks to access the real documents of history," said State Archivist Thomas Ruller. "These valuable historical resources can be found in every community across the state and in every family. These historical resources contain first-hand information about the past that engages students and allows them to do the same work as professional historians."
The Student Research Awards Contest is designed to encourage students to explore the wealth of historical records found across New York State and to increase cooperation between schools and organizations that manage historical records. The State Archives encourages students to explore the historical records located in their communities by visiting county, city, town and village clerk's offices; public libraries; historical societies; and businesses. Examples of historical records include letters, diaries, photographs, board meeting minutes, police and court records, ledgers, census records, deeds, and wills. The State Archives has a variety of instructional videos showcasing how to find and use historical records on its website.
Individual students and groups of students may submit projects to the contest. Eligible projects include: computer-based entries such as websites or PowerPoint presentations; exhibits; documentaries; performances; proposals for a historical marker, property or district; and traditional research papers.
All students must use historical records, as well as other primary and secondary sources, in their research, and each entry must be accompanied by an annotated bibliography that briefly describes how each source was used and how it contributed to the project. Projects must be nominated by teachers or administrators in the school attended by the student(s). Community members, such as municipal historians and public librarians, may also nominate students. Entries from home-schooled students are welcome.
Three awards are presented each year; one for grades 4-5, grades 6-8, and grades 9-12. The awards consist of a framed certificate, a cash award, and an invitation to an awards ceremony in Albany. Certificates of Merit are awarded to students, other than the winners, whose projects are exemplary.
The Student Research Awards are supported by the Laura and Robert Chodos endowment, private contributions, and special grants raised by the New York State Archives Partnership Trust, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization committed to ensuring that the New York State Archives records are preserved and available for future generations.
The New York State Archives is a program of the State Education Department's Office of Cultural Education. Located on Madison Avenue in Albany, the Archives is open Monday through Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. except on legal holidays. Further information can be obtained by calling (518) 474-6926 or visiting the Archives' website at http://www.archives.nysed.gov/.

Chewing sugar free gum for 20 minutes after meals and snacks has been shown to significantly reverse early signs of tooth decay.
Consequently, stimulated saliva is a more effective medium for remineralizing enamel crystals damaged by initial caries attack.
After meals and snacks, bacteria in plague produce acids, which cause the pH in the mouth to fall. If the pH falls below the critical level of 5.5 the tooth enamel starts to demineralize or dissolve and small white lesions may appear.
Stimulation of saliva flow results in an increase in the washing out of acids and also an increase in the amount and concentration of remineralization ions.
It is these ions that help to repair these early signs of tooth decay.
Remineralization of enamel lesions can occur with or without chewing sugar free gum. However, it has been shown that when patients chew sugar free gum regularly after meals and snacks remineralization is doubled in comparison with those who do not chew sugar free gum.
Stimulated saliva also has a higher concentration of bicarbonate, which raises the pH of saliva and greatly improves its buffering ability.
Stimulated saliva through chewing sugar free gum is therefore much more effective at neutralizing plague acids in the mouth.
Some sugar-free gums contain micro granules made of sodium polyphosphate-an ingredient proven to adhere to the surface of teeth to provide cleaning benefits such as stain prevention and removal, pellicle removal and prevention of calculus or tartar formation.
Another additive in some sugar free gums is xylotol, which is a naturally occurring non-fermentable polyol, which has been clinically proven to have anti-cariogenic properties in addition to helping reduce plague formation.
So,chewing sugar free gum stimulates saliva; helps clear food debris, neutralizes plague acid and remineralizes tooth enamel.
The chewing action also helps to remove surface plague.
Chewing sugar free gum should never replace brushing and flossing, but if it is used after eating or wherever brushing teeth is impractical it is an enjoyable way to help protect teeth from decay.


The Colorado Senate gave second-reading approval to the controversial "red-flag" gun bill Friday after long hours of often passionate debate over gun violence, suicide, constitutional rights and mass shootings.
House Bill 1177 comes up for a formal and final vote Monday. Like in the House, majority Democrats in the Senate argued it would save lives, while Republicans labeled it a "gun grab."
Gov. Jared Polis has said he supports the legislation.
The legislation creates an Extreme Risk Protective Order that police or a family member can request from a judge in cases where someone is posing a "significant" threat to themselves or others. Police then serve the order and temporarily confiscate the person's guns.
The targeted person must have a hearing within 14 days so a judge could determine if there is "clear and convincing" evidence they can have their guns returned. Similar laws exist in 14 states already.
"This is about savings lives, saving lives, saving lives," Sen. Lois Court, D-Denver, responded to GOP complaints that taking a troubled person's guns won't prevent suicides or violent attacks on others.
"(You) want to take their guns away just because somebody thinks they're a threat to someone," countered Sen. Jerry Sonnenberg, R-Sterling. "This is nothing more than a gun grab."
Critics argue a person could be the target of a vengeful ex-partner or someone making a false claim, and a gunowner would have to prove they aren't dangerous.
The legislation has divided the state, with several dozen counties, including Fremont and Custer, declaring they are "Second Amendment sanctuaries," where sheriffs won't have to enforce the law if they choose.
Attorney General Phil Weiser said this week that sheriffs who refuse to enforce a state law should resign.
That brought Sen. Larry Crowder, R-Alamosa, to the microphone Friday to reply that it is Weiser who should resign. He called the legislation "outrageous" and praised sheriffs who are warning they won't enforce it.
On the other side, Sen. Jessie Danielson, D-Wheat Ridge, said young people are now crowding into hearings at state capitols to demand action against school shootings.
"They're here because we adults have let them down," she said. "It's time to step forward and protect our kids."
Sen. Faith Winter, D-Adams County, said her small son is afraid of being caught in a school shooting.
"He woke up crying for three nights because he's afraid he runs too slow," she said.
Sen. Mike Foote, D-Lafayette, said similar laws exist in 14 states and are constitutional. He gave a brief overview of Supreme Court rulings on gun laws and how mentally ill people can be barred from having them.
But a fellow lawyer, Sen. Bob Gardner, R-Colorado Springs, warned that he could easily imagine police abusing their new power to search and confiscate guns under the bill.
"Once police are in a house doing a search for a person's guns, who knows what they will find?" he posed to the Senate.
Sen. Paul Lundeen, R-Colo., argued the legislation turned the notion of justice "upside down" by making the person accused of dangerous behavior prove otherwise to recover their weapons.
There was a 10-hour committee hearing on the bill last week and witnesses on both sides told emotional stories about family members who killed themselves or others during periods of mental illness.
Supporters said the bill gives people a chance to get weapons away from someone having mental problems. Critics said sending police to confiscate weapons from someone having emotional problems would only escalate the conflict —and also said suicidal people could kill themselves many ways without guns.
"If someone wants to do it, they're going to do it," warned Sen. Vicki Marble, R-Weld County.
As during the House debate, Republicans chided supporters for not changing the legislation into a mental-health bill to require that anyone targeted with an extreme-risk warrant be taken for a mental health evaluation instead of losing their guns, even temporarily.
Law enforcement authorities can already take people into custody for a 72-hour mental health evaluation — and confiscate weapons as well. The new law requires police to decide someone is in "eminent danger" of being violent.
"This bill is about public safety," Court said.
Sen. Bob Rankin, R-Carbondale, said rural counties in particular don't like the legislation and see gun violence and mass shootings as a city problem.
"We should ask ourselves if this bill is worth the divisions it is causing," he said.
After six hours of debate, Republicans brought up a series of amendments to modify the bill, though they were turned down on partyline votes.

2 Men Cleared Of Rape After Italian Court Ruled Woman 'Too Masculine' To Be Attacked
Two Italian men were cleared of rape charges in 2017 partly because an Italian appeals court, consisting of three female judges, thought the alleged female victim looked "too masculine" to be sexually assaulted.
Although the ruling was handed down two years ago, the reasoning for it wasn't made public until this past Friday, when Italy's highest court rejected that decision and ordered a retrial, The Guardian reports. Hundreds of people gathered outside the Ancona, Italy, courtroom on Monday to protest the lower court's dismissal of the charges, according to The Local Italy.
In 2015, a 22-year-old Peruvian woman who had gone to a bar with friends accused one man of raping her while the other watched. According to doctors, her injuries were consistent with rape and her blood contained high levels of benzodiazepines, a type of tranquilizer often used as a date rape drug. Both men were convicted of rape in 2016.
The appeals court in Ancona overturned the convictions the following year, finding that the woman was not credible in part because of her looks, according to documents published Friday.

— stefynews (@StefaniaBenatti) March 11, 2019
The judges wrote that one of the accused "didn't even like the girl, to the point of having stored her number in his phone under the nickname 'Viking,' an allusion to an anything but feminine figure, rather a masculine one," according to The Local Italy.
The court pointed to a photograph of the woman as evidence to "confirm" that she was too unattractive to be a target of sexual assault.
"I read this sentence in 2017 and that's why we referred it to the supreme court," the woman's attorney, Cinzia Molinaro, told the Guardian.
"It was disgusting to read. The judges expressed various reasons for deciding to acquit them, but one was because the [defendants] said they didn't even like her, because she was ugly," the lawyer said.
The case is set to be retried in a court in Perugia, which lies in a different province from Ancona, at an undetermined future date.
