Carmen Aristegui, a leading Mexican investigative journalist, says her country is becoming increasingly authoritarian under President Nieto. She was fired by MVS Radio shortly after reporting on a luxury house built for the first lady.\nAristegui, who is a prominent left-wing figure in Mexico with over 3 million subscribers following her Twitter account, was fired by her long-time employer MVS Radio two weeks ago.\nTwo journalists working as part of Aristegui’s 17-strong investigative team launched a website called Mexicoleaks, which is meant to ensure anonymity to whistleblowers. MVS Radio accused them of illegally using the company’s brand name for the site and fired them. In the ensuing conflict the anchorwoman herself had to leave the station.\nIn an exclusive interview with RT, Aristegui said the Mexicoleaks story was a pretext for, rather than the cause of the dismissals.\nShe believes the Mexican government’s irritation with independent investigative journalism is behind the fallout with MVS Radio, Aristegui told RT.\n“It all indicates that there was some kind of threat or collusion or something to deal with an angered government that in a sense was cornered by the investigations of the group. We certainly take it as a serious measure coming from the highest level of the government,” she said.\nAristegui was sacked shortly after reporting on her website that Mexico’s first lady Angélica Rivera had a luxurious house built for her in Mexico City’s most exclusive neighborhood. The company that built it had won hundreds of millions of dollars in contracts with the government of President Enrique Peña Nieto.\nAristegui’s parting with MVS Radio was the second in her career. Back in 2011, the station fired her for alleging that then-President Felipe Calderón might have drinking problems. She was reinstated days later after widespread public outcry.\nThe dismissal, CNN reported later, was done under pressure from Calderón's office, which demanded a public apology from Aristegui and said it wouldn’t resolve an issue relating to MVS Radio’s broadcasting frequencies unless she issued one. No such apology was aired.

If the owner of this bike happens to see this post – I’d love to hear from you!\nfhis is one from a trip West this past September. It was taken at an exit on I-70 in Utah. I had stopped to get a drink, when I pulled in I saw two riders over in the shade under a tree, didn’t pay much attention to their bikes. When leaving, I looked over and noticed the big elk horns sticking out, and had to go investigate.\nThe rider’s outfit was about as off the wall as the bike, with the big red sash…would have loved to see how that flared out riding down the road.

As well know devices installed with Android One are not only directly supported by Google but also get constant long term updates. Recently, Lenovo has come up with its second new device named Motorola One Power which is powered with Android One after Moto X4.\nActually earlier also the details of the device were leaked. But this time details leaked are quite different. Well, now the question is that whether one of the leak is correct or none and there can also be a possibility that both the leaks are two variants.\nAccording to the new leaked details, the device is powered with Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 processor with 4 GB RAM. When it comes to internal memory it will be 64 GB whether expandable or not we aren’t sure. Though when we compare it with previous reports the device might also have a variant with 6 GB RAM.\nAlso the devices features a 6.2 inch display size with Full HD+ resolution. Since the device runs on Android One, the phone will have the latest Android very soon after the launch. Thus, it will have Android 8.1 Oreo the latest in market. Motorola one power backed up by a 3,780 mAh battery which makes the device a powerful one.

I am writing in response to what I feel is a misrepresentation of the truth. Shenna Bellows, candidate for U.S. Senate, recently attended a conference in Detroit, where she said she had the unanimous endorsement of the Maine AFL-CIO.\nThis statement does not reflect the truth. At the convention where the AFL-CIO voted to endorse her, the machinists unions did not vote to endorse her. At a meeting held the previous day, two international unions voted against the endorsement of Bellows. These votes against her hardly represent the “unanimous endorsement” Bellows now claims to have.\nBoth the Machinist Locals S6 and S7 at Bath Iron Works, along with our brothers and sisters in UAW Local 3999 and the firefighters, have endorsed Sen. Susan Collins. She works hard for us and our shipyard, and we will continue to fight hard for her.

The Guardian – Effective policy-making relies on availability of high quality data and nowhere is that more true than in Africa, where a ‘green revolution’ has been spoken about, waited for, but not been realised for decades. Across the continent, national governments and regional planners have never had the data to make proper decisions regarding investment in water resources infrastructure, essential to increase agricultural capacity sustainably.\nThe main obstacle is Africa’s extremely limited hydro-meteorological observation network. With more measurement stations, and thus better understanding of water availability, and enhanced ability to predict shifting weather patterns, the impact on African harvest predictions and food production could be transformative.\nLabex Korea – Achieving both economic growth and better quality of life is human kind’s longstanding aspiration. To that end, we need to tap natural resources in an environmentally sustainable manner and stop polluting environment in the process of consuming the resources.\nAdvanced nations have made a continuous effort and seen a significant progress in maximizing productivity of resources while realizing economic development that minimizes environmental pollution. They have sought ways to curb environmental degradation by inventing relevant technologies and nurturing industries.\nThe Ministry of Environmental and Korean Environmental Industry & Technology Institute prepared a book to introduce Korea’s competitive environmental enterprises and technologies to the world.

How well is your business communicating its purpose, core values and principles inside an ethical framework?\nA code of conduct details how employees are expected to behave in the workplace.\nBeing transparent about your firm’s ethics can promote good workplace culture.\nEpisode four of the Acuity podcast investigates ethics in business.\nIn a world where information is so readily available, being transparent about your organisation’s code of conduct is clever and should, in practise, inform every aspect of your business.\nPutting in place a code of conduct can help promote your company as being ethically sound. Talented, skilled graduates looking to make decisions about their careers will turn to companies that align with their core values.\nCorporate social responsibility, trust and integrity are virtues that often foster good business relationships, meaning that acting ethically can actually add to the bottom line.\nPwC Australia promotes a clear message regarding the company’s code of conduct. It is informed by the organisation’s values and key purpose, which is to build trust in society and solve important problems. The message is succinct and digestible.\nBut who sets the framework for defining ethical behaviour? Do employees simply have to follow the natural laws set by society? Or do employers need to define what it means to act ethically in the context of the business? PwC thinks so.\nPwC’s code of conduct document is 29 pages long and details how the company wants its employees to act. For example, when something doesn’t seem right, an employee is asked to respond by “speaking up” because “speaking up” reinforces the company’s integrity and courage to do the right thing.\nPwC’s policies, values and standards exist within a larger framework of professional standards and laws, but together inform the company’s purpose and the values that drive their business. Values such as trust and integrity, for example, are demonstrated by employees not engaging in bribery or corruption.\nA code of conduct should provide the framework within which your business defines its purpose, values and principles. Your code of conduct should cut through complexity and make it simple for employees to practice business ethically and in a way that promotes purpose and shared values.\nTo learn more about ethics in business, listen to episode four of the Acuity podcast, titled Who knew? – ethics and business equals profit. In this episode, hosts Mike Lynch and Jennifer Black chat to John Neil from The Ethics Centre in Sydney.\nSpeaking in episode four (see above) of the Acuity podcast, Neil says that events post-GFC, and the rise of the internet, have forced a greater sense of responsibility onto business and increased calls for transparency.\nTo hear more from Neil on why acting ethically is good for business, listen to episode four of the Acuity podcast now.

Among the many questions following the UK vote to exit the European Union (EU) is how Brexit will affect owners of captive insurance companies. Although the details of the UK’s departure have yet to be established, Brexit could have a direct impact on captives’ “passporting” rights and on their financials.\n“Passporting” refers to the right of UK resident insurers, captives in the UK and Gibraltar, and UK brokers to provide insurance services in EU member states from a single country license. Since the UK will no longer be part of the EU, that right may be restricted.\nSimilarly, an EU resident captive insurer may need an additional license to conduct insurance business in the UK. The EU captive insurer may need to form a UK branch or a new UK entity, particularly if it is insuring compulsory classes such as employers’ liability and third-party motor liability risks in the UK. Another alternative would be to use a UK insurer to front the risk. For non-compulsory classes of risks, the EU resident captive could cover the UK risks on a non-admitted basis without applying for a separate license.\nOwners with captives based in the European domiciles writing business on a direct basis such as Dublin, Malta, and Gibraltar may also be affected indirectly by volatility in exchange rates and investment markets following the referendum. Owners should monitor markets closely to ensure that their captives can still meet solvency obligations and can fulfill obligations on non-Sterling liabilities.\nCredit ratings for (re)insurers should also be closely monitored for potential downgrades and knock-on effects of the captive’s Solvency Capital Requirement under Solvency II. A.M. Best has announced that it does not expect to take rating actions in the near term as a direct consequence of Brexit.\nAlthough the referendum result was in favor of the UK to leave the EU, there is uncertainty around the process and timing of the UK’s official exit. Once the UK government formally notifies the European Council of its decision, it will trigger Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty, starting the transition, which is expected to last at least two years. During that time, the UK and EU will negotiate the terms of the exit and determine the UK’s future relationship with the EU. Any extension of the transition period will have to be agreed to by all remaining EU member states. The current situation is unprecedented, however, as no member state has previously voted to leave the EU.\nCaptives resident in the EU can continue to do business as usual until the final decisions and agreements have been made between the UK and the EU member states. In the interim period, captives could be used to write other classes of insurable risks that the multinational group faces as a result of the referendum result, such as financial loss following the investment and foreign exchange downturn, supply chain issues, etc.\nIn view of the uncertainty around the terms of the UK’s exit as well as the timeline and how it will affect collaboration among EU member states, we advise clients in the short term to be prepared to review their captive risk profiles and insurance programs and to be aware of and plan for the impact.\nThe effects of Brexit on captive owners will become more apparent in the months to come, once negotiations start and the terms of the UK’s relationship with the EU becomes clearer. However, the transitional timeline of two years will allow for proper planning and management of the situation for affected captive owners. Marsh Captive Solutions will be monitoring the situation and will continue to provide updates as the details unfold.

Ok this game has 3 problems one it is so hard to hunt you get like 59 pieces of meat second you have to buy the the wolf with wings with real money💩👿. Last the quests are fighting and it’s hard to win😔😞😟 so I give it one star ⭐️ thanks for reading.\nFirst of all, tons of glitches that on the small end make the game frustrating or on the other end make it unplayable. For example very important options or menus not activating/opening. Also they claim to have realistic wolf pack dynamics but they are anything, but they don’t even have the very basics down like only alphas mating. Wolf pack dynamics aren’t even based on strength either which is hammered in the whole time, it’s a horrible claim to make that it’s realistic in that sense. What is also laughable is it seems even besides all those other issues while I played hardly anyone seemed to be using the chat feature and if they did it was short to know reply. Don’t get this game the glitches alone make it unplayable and the story isn’t interesting either.\nI love wolves in this game is so much fun. You get to level your wolves while fighting different animals and catching rabbits and sheep for food. And It doesn’t take too much time, just a little here and a little there. Perfect for me.\nThis was the worst game ever because nothing made sense and the graphics were just terrible. So I don’t envies you to get the game.

Boyapati rules out budget cut?\nAlthough his latest action adventure ‘Vineya Vidheya Rama’, failed to impress the viewers, action filmmaker Boyapati Sreenu has no plans to cut the budget of his next big ticket film with Balakrishna. “Budget has already been finalised and it would be made with Rs 75 crore and director has no plans to cut the budget,” says a source, close to the unit. The big budget flick is being produced by Nandamuri Balakrishna under NBK Films.\n“Balakrishna has big plans for his banner. After producing NTR biopic in two parts, the actor wants to dish out another action adventure to enthrall his fans. Without compromising on any quality and quantity since he established the banner to dish out lavish films,” the source adds.\nThe source further adds “Balakrishna and Boyapati are on are on the verge of an hat-trick after two blockbusters ‘Simha’ and ‘Legend’ and already expectations are saoring for the film to commence from February,” Meanwhile, there were rumours that the much-hyped movie will have political overtones to cater to upcoming elections season.

Considering that most disasters can cause serious disruptions in the water supply and the importance of water for survival, putting in a well is a great idea. Of all the possible sources for water, having a well on your own property is the most secure source you can have. Even so, if the grid goes down, that water could be out of your reach, if you don’t take the right precautions.\nThere are two basic types of wells — shallow wells and deep wells. Shallow wells are usually limited to about 25 feet or so. Many “homemade” wells fall into this category. While they might not provide water that is as good as what you can get from a deep well, they are much easier to install. They also have the advantage that the water can be drawn out of them from a pump on the surface, which draws the water out by suction.\nDeep wells can’t use a suction pump to draw the water, simply because nobody can build a pump with enough suction to draw the water that far up a tube. Instead, the well has a waterproof pump at the bottom of the well casing. This type of pump can work with pumps that are quite deep.\nBoth of the types of pumps I just mentioned are electrically powered. Today, this is the most basic type of well pump there is. However, those electric pumps won’t do much good without electricity. In order to get water out of your pumps in a grid down situation, you’ll either need some source of electricity or you’ll need a pump that is powered by some other means.\nOf course, if you are producing your own electrical power from either wind turbines or solar panels,you will be able to operate your well’s pump, even if there is no other source of power available. All you would have to do is to disconnect the pump from its normal source of power and connect it to your own power in order to keep it going. This is even a case where the high cost of running a generator would be justified. However, if you don’t have any electrical power production, you’re back to square one, needing another way to draw the water from your well.\nLet me tell you a secret here; even if you have a deep well, with a pump at the bottom of it, the water level in your well may not be as deep as you would expect. Wells are often drilled much deeper than necessary to find water, because the water that can be found deeper is usually better water than what can be found up close to the surface. In other words, even if you have a well that’s 300 feet deep, the surface of the water might only be 25 feet below ground level.\nIt’s easy to check how close to the surface the water in your well is; all you need is an empty pill bottle and some string. Put a few pebbles or metal nuts in the pill bottle to give it some weight and tie the end of the string securely to it. Just don’t put enough weight into it to prevent the bottle from floating. Start letting the string out, lowering the pill bottle into your well. When the string goes slack, you’ve found the water.\nMark the point on your string where the pill bottle hit the water and pull it back out. Measuring how much string you had let out will let you know how far the water comes up in your well casing. Keep in mind that drawing water out of the well lowers the level of the water in it. So if you had just been running the water, your normal water level may be even higher.\nIf your water level is 25 feet or less below the surface, then you can use a manual well pump to draw water out of it. You’ve probably seen these; the squeaky cast iron pump that was used in the Old West (and other places). You can still get them today for a fairly reasonable price.\nThe electric pump your well has in it won’t prevent you from using a manual pump of this type. If your well is a deep well, it will probably have a four inch well casing. Besides the water, the only thing that is taking up space in that well casing is the power cord and the hose that is carrying the water to the surface. There’s enough room for the suction hose for the manual pump. If your well has a two inch casing with a surface mounted pump, you’ll probably need to pull out the suction pipe in order to put the hose for the manual pump in it.\nThere are a number of designs around for homemade well pumps, generally made out of PVC pipe. These all work either by positive displacement (the water in the well taking up the space of the piston) or vacuum (creating a vacuum source to draw the water up the hose or pipe). Of the two, a positive displacement pump will draw water from a deeper level than a vacuum pump will; however a vacuum pump is easier to build.\nThere are two keys to making any type of vacuum pump. The first is having a couple of check valves. These allow water to flow through in one direction, while blocking it from flowing in the opposite direction. The direction through which the water will flow is marked on the side of the valve. The purpose of the check valves is to ensure that water which is pulled up out of the well doesn’t go back down. The other important key is a good seal for the piston which creates the vacuum. If the piston doesn’t have a good seal, you’re going to waste a lot of energy pumping, for very little gain.\nThicker seals work better than thin ones, as they can’t fold out of the way from pressure. With deeper pumps, multiple seals are especially useful, as they will do a better job of ensuring that the pressure can’t make the seal fold, letting air slip by.\nThe easiest way to make a vacuum pump for a well is a “T” configuration, with the T lying on its side so that the vacuum section is offset to the side of the line of the well. This needs to be between the two check valves, so that the water can be drawn up the pump’s suction tube on the suction stroke and then pushed out the end of the pump on the return stroke.\nBoth check valves must be pointing in the same direction, that of moving the water up out of the well as indicated by the arrows in the drawing. The suction tube can either be plastic pipe or flexible tube. The thinner the tubing’s overall diameter, the easier it will be to use, but the bigger the diameter, the more water it will draw on each stroke; however, the pump will be harder to operate. For most people, 3/4 inch PVC pipe makes a good pump.\nThe main PVC pipe diameter, for the suction tube, check valves and outlet don’t have to be the same size as the plunger tube and rod. Since the plunger tube and rod determine the volume of water drawn per stroke, it would make sense to make them slightly larger than the suction tube.\nThe plunger rod pushes a rubber seal or piston in and out of the plunger tube. This needs to be a snug fit for the pump to work. While there are many different places you can cut the rubber for this seal from, I have found that the inner sole from an old rubber sandal works well. Likewise, the rubber from a flip-flop can be cut for a seal.\nThe plunger rod needs to be slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the plunger tube, so that it can move freely. However, it should not be much smaller, as it needs to support the seal. A hardwood dowel works well for this. Attach the seal to the end of the plunger with stainless steel screws so that they won’t rust. The excess plunger rod can function as a handle or you can attach a handle to it.\nWhen the plunger rod is retracted, it creates a vacuum in the pump, drawing water out of the well. The upper check valve will ensure that none of the suction is wasted into the air, while the lower check valve will keep the water from returning back down into the well. Be sure not to fully retract the plunger rod from the pump, or the suction will be lost and the water will spill out the open end of the plunger tube.\nPushing the plunger rod back into the tube causes the water to be pushed up past the upper check valve. Since the lower check valve will be closed, none of the water will return back down the well.\nThis simple pump will allow you to get adequate water from your well, even without electrical power. You will want to be cautious with your water usage, as it will take time to draw enough water to fill a bucket. Nevertheless, you will have a pretty much limitless supply of water, as long as you take the time and energy to operate your pump.

Sergeant William Garnet “Bing” Coughlin, the creator of “Herbie” was born in 1912 in Ottawa, where he attended elementary school before moving with his mother to Philadelphia in the United States after his father who was a train conductor was killed in a railway accident. He attended the Pennsylvania School of Industrial Art instead of high school and while studying there he drew sketches and cartoons for periodicals and newspapers but he did not take these efforts seriously. When he graduated he became a display advertising designer in Philadelphia. In 1940 he returned to Ottawa to work for a Canadian display company.\nBing based “Herbie” on his own experiences in the Italian campaign and a friend. See HERBIE. After he became a cartoonist he reinforced this experience by taking periodic trips to the front lines to visit with the troops.\nHe died at 85 years, 4 August 1991 in West Chester Pennsylvania.\nHerbie & Friends.

Our services are designed to be tailored to you as an individual, so you achieve your unique goals and your own level of optimal health.\nOur focus is on who patients are as people; our holistic approach is evidence-based and scientifically validated. UH Connor Integrative Health Network practitioners collaborate with patients, their physicians and specialists within other University Hospitals programs to develop a coordinated and multidisciplinary treatment plan.\nUH Connor Integrative Health Network, and integrative medicine itself, share a theme of connection. We offer therapies and services that work alongside traditional medical therapies to prevent illness, and those that touch and heal the body, mind and spirit.\nThese services – which range from acupuncture and massage therapy, to teaching various stress management techniques – are designed to supplement traditional healing. Integrative care is patient-centered care, and it is about the collaboration between patients and the practitioners who help them heal.\nUniversity Hospitals Connor Integrative Health Network exists because many patients now seek health and well-being without having to choose between “traditional” or “non-traditional” services and treatments. As a renowned medical center and teaching hospital, we also have a growing number of health care professionals who want their patients to be able to incorporate “non-traditional” services in their desire for optimal health.\nIt is important to note that there is a difference between alternative medicine and integrative medicine. Alternative medicine is generally designed to replace current physician care and treatment. Integrative medicine, however, creates a partnership between a patient's current team of providers and complementary treatments, such as acupuncture or massage therapy.

An orthodontic positioning device and methods for making an orthodontic positioning device including a first patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance having teeth receiving cavities shaped to receive and apply a resilient positioning force to a patient's teeth provided in one of an upper jaw and a lower jaw. The first appliance includes a hook configured to receive an orthodontic elastic band. The orthodontic positioning device also includes a second patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance having teeth receiving cavities shaped to receive and apply a resilient positioning force to a patient's teeth provided in the other of the upper jaw and the lower jaw. The second appliance includes a cutout operable to expose an orthodontic elastic band receiving member.\nThis application is a divisional application of U.S. application Ser. No. 14/148,453, filed Jan. 6, 2014, now U.S. Pat. No. 9,433,477, issued Sep. 6, 2016, which is a divisional application of U.S. application Ser. No. 13/270,171, filed Oct. 10, 2011, now U.S. Pat. No. 8,641,414, issued Feb. 4, 2014, each of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety, and to which applications we claim priority under 35 USC § 121.\nThe present invention generally relates to the field of orthodontics, and more particularly to the design of dental positioning appliances precisely configured to interface with an orthodontic elastic member.\nAn objective of orthodontics is to move a patient's teeth to positions where function and/or aesthetics are optimized. Traditionally, appliances such as braces are applied to a patient's teeth by a treating practitioner and the set of braces exerts continual force on the teeth and gradually urges them toward their intended positions. Over time and with a series of clinical visits and adjustments to the braces, the practitioner adjusts the appliances to move the teeth toward their final destination.\nMore recently, alternatives to conventional orthodontic treatment with traditional affixed appliances (e.g., braces) have become available. For example, systems including a series of preformed appliances/aligners have become commercially available from Align Technology, Inc., Santa Clara, Calif., under the trade name Invisalign® System. The Invisalign® System is described in numerous patents and patent applications assigned to Align Technology, Inc. including, for example in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,450,807, and 5,975,893, as well as on the company's website, which is accessible on the World Wide Web (see, e.g., the url “www.invisalign.com”). The Invisalign® System includes designing and/or fabricating multiple, and sometimes all, of the aligners to be worn by the patient before the aligners are administered to the patient and used to reposition the teeth (e.g., at the outset of treatment). Often, designing and planning a customized treatment for a patient makes use of computer-based 3-dimensional planning/design tools, such as Treat™ software from Align Technology, Inc. The design of the aligners can rely on computer modeling of a series of planned successive tooth arrangements, and the individual aligners are designed to be worn over the teeth and elastically reposition the teeth to each of the planned tooth arrangements.\nWhile recently developed orthodontic treatment technologies, such as those described above, represent a considerable advancement in the field of orthodontics, additional advancements remain of interest. For example, in some instances it may be advantageous to use an orthodontic elastic member to generate a tension force between a patient's upper and lower teeth to bring the teeth and/or jaws into a desired occlusion. In some traditional approaches, brackets are bonded to teeth in the upper and lower jaws and an orthodontic elastic member is used to couple the brackets to generate the tension force. Generating such a tension force in conjunction with recently developed orthodontic approaches can be challenging. For example, shell aligners are often designed to match the geometry of a patient's teeth, thereby leaving little room for bonding such brackets to a patient's teeth. In some cases, dental practitioners are left with the daunting task of trimming or otherwise self-manipulating shell aligners to receive orthodontic elastic members such as elastic bands and/or adapt to existing orthodontic appliances such as brackets already disposed on the patient's teeth. As such, there is a need for shell aligners that can be used in conjunction with an orthodontic elastic member to, for example, bring a patient's teeth into a desired occlusion.\nThe present disclosure provides orthodontic positioning appliances for use with an orthodontic elastic band, and related systems and methods. The disclosed methods and systems include methods and systems for designing a patient removable orthodontic positioning device for use with an orthodontic elastic band. The orthodontic positioning device includes a first patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance having teeth receiving cavities shaped to receive and apply a resilient positioning force to a patient's teeth provided in one of an upper jaw and a lower jaw. The first appliance includes a hook configured to receive an orthodontic elastic band. The orthodontic positioning device also includes a second patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance having teeth receiving cavities shaped to receive and apply a resilient positioning force to a patient's teeth provided in the other of the upper jaw and the lower jaw. The second appliance includes a cutout operable to expose an orthodontic elastic band receiving member.\nFor a fuller understanding of the nature and advantages of the present invention, reference should be made to the ensuing detailed description and accompanying drawings.

description, various embodiments of the present invention will be described. For purposes of explanation, specific configurations and details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments. However, it will also be apparent to one skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced without the specific details. Furthermore, well-known features may be omitted or simplified in order not to obscure the embodiment being described.\nOrthodontic positioning appliances are provided that can be used in conjunction with one or more orthodontic elastic members, as well as related methods and systems. During orthodontic treatment, it may be necessary to apply forces to a tooth to generate movement of the tooth to, for example, bring the patient's teeth into a better occlusion in a mesial or distal direction. The presently disclosed appliances, methods, and systems provide means by which such forces can be applied during orthodontic treatment where appliances having teeth receiving cavities are used, such as preformed appliances/aligners available from Align Technology, Inc., Santa Clara, Calif., under the trade name Invisalign® System, and where a patient has an elastic band receiving member (e.g., an orthodontic button or a bracket with a hook) affixed to one or more of their teeth.\nIn one embodiment, orthodontic positioning appliances may include a first appliance for coupling to a patient's teeth in one jaw (e.g., the upper jaw), and a second appliance for coupling to patient's teeth in another jaw (e.g., the lower jaw). The patient may have an elastic band receiving member (e.g., an orthodontic button) affixed to one of their teeth, such as a molar in the lower jaw. The second appliance may then be designed and fabricated to include a cutout operable to expose the elastic band receiving member or otherwise prevent physical and/or functional interference with the elastic band receiving member. Further, the first appliance may include a cutout defining a hook, such as a hook provided on an incisor of a tooth in the lower jaw. As a result, an elastic band may be attached to the hook of the first appliance and the elastic band receiving member affixed to the molar, thereby advantageously using existing orthodontic elements (such as the orthodontic button) and new appliances, as well as advantageously using the new appliances to apply forces via both their teeth receiving cavities and via the existing orthodontic elements.\nEmbodiments also include methods for designing patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliances including cutouts. In one embodiment, computer-based 3-dimensional planning/design tools, such as Treat™ software from Align Technology, Inc., may be used to design and fabricate a tooth positioning appliance including a cutout to expose an elastic band receiving member. A digital representation of a patient's tooth or teeth may initially be received. A treating practitioner may then select a digital representation of the elastic band receiving member, and place the digital representation of the elastic band receiving member on the digital representation of the patients tooth. The digital representation of the elastic band receiving member may initially be provided in a default location defined by the computer-based planning/design tools, and may subsequently be modified by the treating practitioner. In some embodiments, conditions may be imposed to restrict a location of the digital representation of the elastic band receiving member. Once the digital representation of the elastic band receiving member is provided on the digital representation of the patients tooth, the computer-based planning/design tools may define a cutout line. The cutout line may subsequently be used to cut the tooth positioning appliance such that the appliance does not interfere with the elastic band receiving member when disposed on the patient's teeth. In some embodiments, the cutout line may have be optimally shaped so as to minimize the amount of material removed from the tooth positioning appliance. In at least one embodiment, the cutout line may be user-manipulable such that the treating practitioner may redefine a location and/or shape of the cutout line.\nEmbodiments also include methods for designing patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliances including hooks. In one embodiment, computer-based 3-dimensional planning/design tools may be used to design and fabricate a tooth positioning appliance including a hook operable to couple to an elastic band. A digital representation of a patient's tooth or teeth may initially be received. A treating practitioner may then generate a hook cutout line extending from the gingival line of a tooth. The hook cutout line may initially be provided in a default location defined by the computer-based planning/design tools, and may subsequently be modified by the treating practitioner. In some embodiments, conditions may be imposed to restrict a location of the hook cutout line. Once the hook cutout line is provided on the digital representation of the patients tooth, the computer-based planning/design tools may extend the hook cutout line. The extended hook cutout line may subsequently be used to cut the tooth positioning appliance such that the appliance is operable to receive an elastic band when disposed on the patient's teeth. In some embodiments, the hook cutout line may have be optimally shaped so as to extend in a direction toward a center of an elastic band receiving member affixed to a patient's tooth. In at least one embodiment, the hook cutout line may be user-manipulable such that the treating practitioner may redefine a location and/or shape of the cutout line.\nIn some embodiments, a method of detecting a malocclusion of a patient's teeth is provided. In detecting malocclusion, the method may detect various types of malocclusion, such as Class I type malocclusion (neutrocclusion), Class II type malocclusion (distocclusion), and/or Class III type malocclusion (mesiocclusion). According to one embodiment, to detect a malocclusion of a patient's teeth, the computer-based planning/design tools may receive a digital representation of the patient's teeth in both the upper jaw and the lower jaw. The digital representations of the teeth in the jaws may be aligned in accordance with the patient's natural occlusion. Points on corresponding teeth in the upper and lower jaws (e.g., center points of canine teeth) may be identified, a distance there between measured. Based on the measured distance, a type of malocclusion (such as distocclusion or mesiocclusion) may be determined.\nReferring now to the drawings, in which like reference numerals represent like parts throughout the several views, FIG. 1 provides an appropriate starting point in a detailed discussion of various embodiments of the present invention with respect to tooth repositioning appliances designed to apply repositioning forces to teeth. A tooth repositioning appliance 10 can be worn by a patient in order to achieve an incremental repositioning of individual teeth in the jaw 11. The appliance can include a shell (e.g., a polymeric shell) having teeth-receiving cavities that receive and resiliently reposition the teeth. In many embodiments, a polymeric appliance can be formed from a thin sheet of suitable elastomeric polymeric material, such as a 0.03 inch thermal forming dental material by Tru-Tain Plastics, Rochester, Minn. An appliance can fit over all teeth present in an upper or lower jaw, or less than all of the teeth. In some cases, only certain teeth received by an appliance will be repositioned by the appliance while other teeth can provide a base or anchor region for holding the appliance in place as it applies force against the tooth or teeth targeted for repositioning. In some cases, many or most, and even all, of the teeth will be repositioned at some point during treatment. Teeth that are moved can also serve as a base or anchor for holding the appliance as it is worn by the patient. Typically, no wires or other means will be provided for holding an appliance in place over the teeth. In some cases, however, it may be desirable or necessary to provide individual anchors on teeth with corresponding receptacles or apertures in the appliance so that the appliance can apply a selected force on the tooth. Exemplary appliances, including those utilized in the Invisalign® System, are described in numerous patents and patent applications assigned to Align Technology, Inc. including, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,450,807, and 5,975,893, as well as on the company's website, which is accessible on the World Wide Web (see, e.g., the url “www.invisalign.com”).\nAn appliance can be designed and/or provided as part of a set or plurality of appliances. In such an embodiment, each appliance may be configured so a tooth-receiving cavity has a geometry corresponding to an intermediate or final tooth arrangement intended for the appliance. The patient's teeth can be progressively repositioned from an initial tooth arrangement to a target tooth arrangement by placing a series of incremental position adjustment appliances over the patient's teeth. A target tooth arrangement can be a planned final tooth arrangement selected for the patient's teeth at the end of all planned orthodontic treatment. Alternatively, a target arrangement can be one of many intermediate arrangements for the patient's teeth during the course of orthodontic treatment, which may include where surgery is recommended, where inter-proximal reduction (IPR) is appropriate, where a progress check is scheduled, where anchor placement is best, where palatal expansion is desirable, etc. As such, it is understood that a target tooth arrangement can be any planned resulting arrangement for the patient's teeth that follows one or more incremental repositioning stages. Likewise, an initial tooth arrangement can be any initial arrangement for the patient's teeth that is followed by one or more incremental repositioning stages. The adjustment appliances can be generated all at the same stage or in sets or batches, e.g., at the beginning of a stage of the treatment, and the patient wears each appliance until the pressure of each appliance on the teeth can no longer be felt or has resulted in the maximum amount of expressed tooth movement for that given stage. A plurality of different appliances (e.g., set) can be designed and even fabricated prior to the patient wearing any appliance of the plurality. After wearing an appliance for an appropriate period of time, the patient replaces the current appliance with the next appliance in the series until no more appliances remain. The appliances are generally not affixed to the teeth and the patient may place and replace the appliances at any time during the procedure (e.g., patient-removable appliances). The final appliance or several appliances in the series may have a geometry or geometries selected to overcorrect the tooth arrangement, i.e., have a geometry which would (if fully achieved) move individual teeth beyond the tooth arrangement which has been selected as the “final.” Such over-correction may be desirable in order to offset potential relapse after the repositioning method has been terminated, i.e., to permit movement of individual teeth back toward their pre-corrected positions. Over-correction may also be beneficial to speed the rate of correction, i.e., by having an appliance with a geometry that is positioned beyond a desired intermediate or final position, the individual teeth will be shifted toward the position at a greater rate. In such cases, the use of an appliance can be terminated before the teeth reach the positions defined by the appliance.\nDuring a course of orthodontic treatment, it may be desirable to interface patient-removable tooth positioning appliances with orthodontic members that are affixed to a surface (e.g., a lingual or buccal surface) of a patient's teeth. For example, it may be desirable to interface patient-removable tooth positioning appliances with an orthodontic member that is operable to receive an elastic band, such as an orthodontic button. The patient-removable tooth positioning appliances may then be coupleable to the elastic band so that tooth repositioning forces may be applied by the elastic band between the orthodontic button and the patient-removable tooth positioning appliances.\nFIG. 2 illustrates a jaw 11 including an elastic band receiving member 12. Elastic band receiving member 12 may be any orthodontic appliance affixed to a patient's tooth operable to receive a force generating element such as an elastic band. For example, the elastic band may wrap around at least a portion of elastic band receiving member 12 and, when in tension, apply a force to the tooth which elastic band receiving member 12 is affixed to and/or the jaw which the tooth is a part of.\nWhile shown as being disposed on a buccal surface of a tooth in the lower jaw, elastic band receiving member 12 may be attached to any suitable surface of any suitable tooth of any suitable jaw. For example, elastic band receiving member 12 may be attached to a tooth surface including a facial surface, lingual surface, palatal surface, etc., may be attached to a tooth including a wisdom tooth, a molar, a bicuspid, etc., and may be attached to a tooth in either the upper or lower jaw of the patient.\nIn some embodiments, elastic band receiving member 12 may be an orthodontic button. However, elastic band receiving member 12 may assume any suitable shape for attaching to a surface of a patient's tooth and receiving a force generating element such as an elastic band. Elastic band receiving member 12 may be operable not only to receive a force generating element such as an elastic band, but may also be operable to perform one or more additional functions. For example, elastic band receiving member 12 may be an orthodontic bracket including a hook, accordingly being operable to both receive an orthodontic wire and an orthodontic elastic band.\nIn other embodiments, elastic band receiving member 12 may be a temporary anchorage device (TAD) provided in the patient's mouth at a location other than an exposed surface of the patient's teeth. For example, elastic band receiving member 12 may be a retraction screw inserted through the gingival tissue and embedded into a bone of the patient's mouth. The TAD may be embedded into any suitable bone at any suitable location in the patient's mouth. For example, the TAD may be embedded into bone at a location between the second premolar and the first molar, or between the first and second molars. The TAD may be embedded into bone from any suitable surface of the mouth, including either buccal or lingual facing bone surfaces.\nFIG. 3 illustrates an elastic band receiving member 12 according to one embodiment. In this embodiment, elastic band receiving member 12 is an orthodontic button. Elastic band receiving member 12 includes a base 14 for bonding elastic band receiving member 12 to a patient's tooth. The surface of base 14 to be bonded to the patient's tooth may have any suitable shape. The shape shown in FIG. 3 is circular, however the shape may alternatively be oval, square, rectangular, polygonal, or any other suitable shape for bonding to a surface of a patient's tooth.\nElastic band receiving member also includes a band-receiving portion 16. Band-receiving portion 16 extends from base 14 and is shaped to receive a force generating element such as an elastic band. Band-receiving portion 16 may have any suitable shape for receiving the force generating element, such as hook-shaped, mushroom-shaped, shaped to include a ball provided on an end surface of a column, etc.\nAccording to various embodiments, it is desirable to shape a patient-removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance such that the tooth positioning appliance does not interfere with elastic band receiving member 12. In this fashion, not only may the patient-removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance be operable to apply tooth positioning or re-positioning forces by way of its tooth receiving cavities, but also elastic band receiving member 12 may be engaged to also apply tooth/jaw positioning or re-positioning forces.\nIn engaging with elastic band receiving member 12, it may be desirable to use an additional elastic band receiving member disposed on a tooth in a jaw opposite the jaw which elastic band receiving member 12 is located. However, in doing so, the additional elastic band receiving member may need to be provided in an undesirable location, such as on a facial surface of a canine tooth. Accordingly, it may instead be desirable to use a patient-removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance rather than an additional elastic band receiving member to engage the elastic band. In this case, a patient-removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance provided for one jaw (such as the upper jaw) may be adapted to receive the elastic band (e.g., the appliance may include a hook), while a patient-removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance provided for the other jaw (such as the lower jaw) may be adapted to avoid interference with an elastic band receiving member disposed on a tooth (e.g., a button on a tooth of the lower jaw). The pair of patient-removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliances may then be operable to apply tooth positioning or repositioning forces in accordance with their tooth receiving cavities, and may be operable to allow an orthodontic elastic band to be coupled between a hook of one appliance and a button disposed on a tooth so as to provide further tooth/jaw positioning/repositioning forces.\nFIG. 4A illustrates a patient-removable tooth positioning appliance 20 similar to appliance 10 discussed with reference to FIG. 1. However, in this case, tooth positioning appliance 20 includes a cutout 22. Cutout 22 is shaped to avoid physical and/or functional interference with an elastic band receiving member such as elastic band receiving member 12 discussed with reference to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3. For example, cutout 22 may have a parabolic or otherwise curved shape, where cutout 22 protrudes into a gingival-facing surface of tooth positioning appliance 20 a distance at least halfway between the gingival line (of a patient's tooth when tooth positioning appliance 20 is attached to the teeth) and an occlusal surface of the tooth.\nWhile shown as being adjacent to a buccal surface of a tooth in the lower jaw (when tooth positioning appliance 20 is attached to the teeth), cutout 22, similar to elastic band receiving member 12, may be provided on any suitable surface of any suitable tooth receiving cavity of a patient-removable tooth positioning appliance 20 designed for any suitable jaw. In some embodiments, cutout 22 is provided for a tooth surface on which an elastic band receiving member 12 is disposed for a given treatment period. However, in other embodiments, cutout 22 may provide for a tooth surface on which an elastic band receiving member 12 is not disposed for a given treatment period. For example, elastic band receiving member 12 may be planned to be used in a future treatment period, or may have previously been used during a past treatment period.\nFIG. 4B illustrates a patient-removable tooth positioning appliance 25 similar to appliance 10 discussed with reference to FIG. 1. However, in this case, tooth positioning appliance 20 includes a hook 26, where hook is operable to receive an elastic band. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 4B, hook 26 is formed by cutting out a portion of tooth positioning appliance 25 and protruding along a gingival-facing surface of tooth positioning appliance 25. However, hook 26 may have any suitable shape for receiving an elastic band, including any of those discussed in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12/722,130, entitled “REINFORCED ALIGNER HOOKS”, which is commonly assigned and incorporated by reference herein in its entirety for all purposes.\nWhile shown as being adjacent to a facial surface of a tooth in the upper jaw (when tooth positioning appliance 25 is attached to the teeth), hook 26, similar to cutout 22 discussed with reference to FIG. 4A, may be provided on any suitable surface of any suitable tooth receiving cavity of a patient-removable tooth positioning appliance 20 designed for any suitable jaw. In some embodiments, hook 26 is provided on the same tooth surface (although for a different tooth) for which cutout 22 is provided. However, in other embodiments, hook 26 may provided for a tooth surface different than that which cutout 22 is provided.\nIn some embodiments, a patient-removable tooth positioning appliance having cutout 22 may be provided for disposal on a patient's teeth at the same time at which a patient-removable tooth positioning appliance having hook 26 may be provided for disposal on the patient's teeth. Cutout 22 and hook 26 may be provided for different teeth on different jaws so that coupling of an orthodontic elastic band may operate to apply tooth/jaw repositioning forces sufficient to treat tooth malocclusions such as distocclusion or mesiocclusion. For example, cutout 22 may be provided for disposal over a posterior tooth in one jaw, while hook 26 may be provided for disposal over an anterior tooth in another jaw. In this fashion, an orthodontic elastic band may operate to apply tooth/jaw repositioning forces that tend to move one or more teeth or the jaw in a mesial or distal direction.\nIn one embodiment, the present invention can include an orthodontic treatment system including one or more sets of aligners utilizing elastics. An exemplary set of aligners is described with reference to FIGS. 5A and 5B, where the set includes a first aligner for a first dental arch of a patient and a second aligner for a second dental arch of the patient. One aligner of the set may include a hook adapted to receive an elastic, and the other aligner can include an receiving member or cutout to accommodate a receiving member. In such a set, the aligners of the set can be configured to accommodate an elastic coupling the hook and receiving member. A treatment system can include one or more sets of aligners according to systems described herein.\nFIG. 5A is an isometric view of an orthodontic positioning device 30 according to an embodiment. Orthodontic positioning device 30 includes a first patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance 25 having teeth receiving cavities shaped to receive and apply a resilient positioning force to a patient's teeth provided in an upper jaw 32 of the patient. Tooth positioning appliance 25 includes hook 26 adapted to receive elastic band 33. Orthodontic positioning device 30 also includes a second patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance 20 having teeth receiving cavities shaped to receive and apply a resilient positioning force to a patient's teeth provided in a lower jaw 34 of the patient. Tooth positioning appliance 20 includes cutout 22 shaped to avoid physical and/or functional interference with elastic band receiving member 12. Orthodontic positioning device 30, in some embodiments, may also include elastic band 33 and/or elastic band receiving member 12.\nIn the embodiment shown in FIG. 5A, hook 26 is disposed over a facial surface of the patient's canine tooth provided on the right side of the upper jaw, while cutout 22 is disposed over elastic band receiving member 12 that is coupled to a facial surface of the patient's first molar provided on the right side of the lower jaw. However, as previously discussed, hook 26 and cutout 22 may be provided over any suitable teeth. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 5A, elastic band 33 is coupled between hook 26 and elastic band receiving member 12 and may be operable to apply a tooth/jaw positioning/repositioning forces in the mesial or distal directions.\nFIG. 5B is a side view of the orthodontic positioning device of FIG. 5A. As shown in FIG. 5B, cutout 22 may be shaped to avoid physical and/or functional interference with elastic band receiving member 12. Further, hook 26 may be shaped to follow a contour of the patient's teeth and/or may have a facial surface that is substantially parallel with and/or does not extend (in a facial direction) past other portions of the tooth receiving cavity in which hook 26 is provided. In other words, with reference to the orientation shown in FIG. 5B, hook 26 does not protrude horizontally in a direction away from other portions of patient-removable tooth positioning appliance 25, thereby reducing undesirable contact or interference with the tissue on an inner surface of a patient's mouth.\nIn some embodiments, methods for treating dental malocclusions are provided. In such embodiments, dental malocclusions may be detected using digital representations (such as 3-dimensional models) of a patient's tooth arrangement, including digital representations of teeth in the patient's upper jaw, and digital representations of teeth in the patient's lower jaw. If a malocclusion is detected, computer-based 3-dimensional planning/design tools, such as Treat™ software from Align Technology, Inc., may be used to design and subsequently fabricate tooth positioning appliances including cutouts and hooks. The cutouts may be designed by digitally simulating the placement of elastic band receiving members such as orthodontic buttons and defining appliance cutout lines around portions of the buttons so that a resulting tooth positioning appliance does not interfere with the actual button attached to the patient's tooth. The hook may be designed by digitally placing, sizing, and orienting a hook, where an orientation of the hook may be optimized based on a location of a cutout in another tooth positioning appliance or a location of a corresponding elastic band receiving member.\nFIG. 6 is a simplified block diagram illustrating a method 40 for treating dental malocclusions. In operation 42, digital representations of a patient's teeth arrangement are received. The digital representations may include a 3-D model of the patient's teeth including tooth crowns provided in the upper and/or lower jaws, where the digital representations of the teeth may be segmented or unsegmented. The digital representations may also include gingiva and/or other dental features provided in proximity to the patient's teeth. The digital representations may be received in any suitable manner. For example, the patient's teeth may be scanned using one or more imaging devices suitable to generate 3-D models of the teeth. In one embodiment, the digital representations may be manipulated to represent the teeth in an arrangement other than a current teeth arrangement of the patient. For example, the digital representations may be manipulated to represent the patient's teeth in a desired intermediate or final position.\nIn operation 44, a determination is made as to whether malocclusions are detected. In detecting a malocclusion, the digital representations of the patient's teeth provided in the upper and lower jaws may be used. Malocclusion may be a Class I type malocclusion, i.e., neutrocclusion, whereby the buccal teeth have a correct mesiodistal relationship with respect to one another, but other teeth may have other types of positioning problems such as overcrowding. Malocclusion may be a Class II type malocclusion, i.e., distocclusion, whereby the lower teeth are in a distal position compared to the upper teeth. Or malocclusion may be a Class III type malocclusion, i.e., mesiocclusion, in which the lower teeth are positioned mesially compared to the upper teeth.\nIf a Class I type malocclusion is detected, treatment may end in accordance with operation 46. On the other hand, if a Class II type malocclusion or a Class III type malocclusion are detected, treatment may continue with operation 48. In operation 48, a digital representation of an orthodontic button may be placed on a digital representation of a tooth of one of the upper and lower jaws. The digital representation of the orthodontic button may be, for example, a digital representation of the previously discussed elastic band receiving member 12. Like elastic band receiving member 12, the orthodontic button may be placed on any suitable surface of any suitable tooth of any suitable jaw. In one embodiment, the digital representation of the orthodontic button is placed on the same tooth and in the same orientation and position which elastic band receiving member 12 is provided.\nIn operation 50, a hook placement may be provided for a tooth of one of the upper and lower jaws. The hook placement may be defined with reference to a digital representation of a patient's tooth, and may itself define a shape of a hook to be subsequently formed in a tooth positioning appliance. For example, the hook placement may define a shape of the previously discussed hook 26. Like hook 26, the hook placement be defined for any suitable surface of any suitable tooth of any suitable jaw.\nIn operation 52, an orthodontic positioning device is fabricated for the patient's teeth arrangement based on the digital representation of the orthodontic button and the hook placement. The orthodontic positioning device may include a first patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance such as patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance 20 discussed with reference to FIG. 5A, and may include a second patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance such as patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance 25 discussed with reference to FIG. 5B. In fabricating patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance 20, the digital representation of the orthodontic button may be used to form cutout 22 so that patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance 20 does not interfere with elastic band receiving member 12. In fabricating patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance 25, the hook placement may be used to form hook 26.\nIt should be appreciated that method 40 may be implemented by any suitable electronic computing device, server, or system. A system that may be used in accordance with one embodiment is discussed later with reference to FIG. 18. Further, the specific operations illustrated in FIG. 6 provide a particular method of treating dental malocclusions, according to certain embodiments of the present invention. Other sequences of operations may also be performed according to alternative embodiments. For example, alternative embodiments of the present invention may perform the operations outlined above in a different order. Moreover, the individual operations illustrated in FIG. 6 may include multiple sub-operations that may be performed in various sequences as appropriate to the individual operations. Furthermore, additional operations may be added or existing operations removed depending on the particular applications. One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize and appreciate many variations, modifications, and alternatives.\nIn some embodiments, a type of malocclusion of the patient's teeth (e.g., Class I, II, or III) may be detected using any one of numerous techniques such as that discussed with reference to operation 44 of FIG. 6. In one particular technique, digital representations of the patient's teeth (both upper and lower jaw) may be used to detect a type of malocclusion. In using the digital representations of the patient's teeth, the teeth in the upper and lower jaws may be aligned in accordance with the patient's natural occlusion. Corresponding points on corresponding teeth in the upper and lower jaws may then be identified. For example, center points of facial surfaces of left canine teeth in the upper and lower jaws may be identified. A distance may then be calculated using these points, and based on the distance, a type of malocclusion detected.\nFIG. 7 is a simplified block diagram illustrating a method 60 for detecting dental malocclusions. In one embodiment, the operations depicted and discussed with reference to method 60 may correspond to the malocclusion detection operation 44 discussed with reference to FIG. 6. Accordingly, a digital representation of a patient's teeth arrangement may initially be acquired, as discussed with reference to operation 42 of FIG. 6.\nIn operation 61, the teeth in the patient's upper jaw are aligned with the teeth in the patient's lower jaw in accordance with the patient's natural occlusion. For example, the digital representation of the teeth in the patient's upper jaw may be aligned with the digital representation of the teeth in the patient's lower jaw. Any one of a variety of techniques may be used to performing such a digital alignment. In one embodiment, the patient's teeth may scanned while they are in occlusion, and the subsequent image used as the image representing the aligned teeth. In another embodiment, the patient's teeth may be scanned while they are in occlusion, and subsequently used to align 3-D models of the patient's teeth using surface matching techniques or other suitable image matching techniques.\nIn operation 62, corresponding points on corresponding teeth in both an upper dental arch and a lower dental arch are identified. The teeth chosen may be any suitable teeth in the upper and lower dental arches. For example, the canine tooth on the right side of an upper jaw may be chosen, as well as the canine tooth on the right side of the lower jaw. Alternatively, other corresponding teeth may be chosen, such as incisors, premolars, or molars, on any suitable side, including the left or right side of the jaws. Further, a common point may be identified at any suitable location on the teeth. For example, the common point may be a center of the facial surface of the tooth crowns. For other examples, the common point may be at location on the facial surface of the teeth other than the center, such as a location near the gingival or near the occlusal surface of the teeth. For yet other examples, the common point may be at features of the teeth provided at locations other than the facial surface, and may include, for example, cusps, ridges, grooves, or other features that are common between the identified teeth.\nFIGS. 8A to 8C are simplified images of teeth arrangements having different malocclusion types that may aid in the discussion of methods for detecting dental malocclusions. FIG. 8A shows a tooth arrangement 70 including an upper jaw 71 and lower jaw 72. First point 73 is identified on the center of a facial surface of the right-side canine tooth in the upper jaw. Second point 74 is identified on the center of a facial surface of the right-side canine tooth in the lower jaw.\nTurning back to FIG. 7, in operation 64, a distance between the identified points is calculated. The distance may be calculated in one or more of a variety of fashions. For example, a line may be drawn between the identified points, where the distance is calculated as the length of the line. For another example, lines may be drawn in parallel with one another from each identified point to a single plane. A distance along one axis of that plane, where the axis is arranged in the mesial/distal direction, may then be measured between the intersection points of the drawn lines and the plane. For instance, with reference to FIG. 8A and considering the orientation of the tooth arrangement 70 as illustrated, parallel lines 76 and 77 may be drawn extending from points 73 and 74. Lines 76 and 77 may be drawn in a direction perpendicular to the occlusal plane and terminate at a line extending in the mesial/distal direction. The distance may then be measured as the distance between the intersection points, i.e., between points A and B shown in FIG. 8A.\nFor yet another example, a distance may be calculated along a tangent direction. FIG. 9A is a top view of a tooth arrangement 80 including a tangent line 82. Tangent line 82 is representative of a tangent direction, and in this embodiment is calculated as the average direction between lines which are tangent to each of a tooth in the upper jaw and the lower jaw in the mesial-distal direction. In this embodiment, the teeth are canines of the upper and lower jaws.\nNumerous techniques may be used for determining tangent line 82. In one embodiment, tangential planes may be generated for points on each of a pair of corresponding teeth in the upper and lower jaws and subsequently used to determine tangent line 82. For example, with respect to a tooth in the upper jaw, FIG. 9B shows a plane 83 that is tangential to a point 83A on a tooth of the upper jaw 84. In this case, point 83A is provided at the center of the facial surface of the canine tooth, although point 83A may be provided at any suitable location of any suitable tooth. Plane 83 may be graphically provided in a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system 85, in which the origin of the coordinate system 85 (i.e., the (0,0,0) point) is disposed at point 83A. The Y-axis is provided in the mesial-distal direction of the jaw, the X-axis is provided perpendicular to the Y-axis and in the occlusal plane, and the Z-axis extends perpendicular to the XY-plane and in the sagittal plane. In the XY-plane, an angle R may be formed between the Y-axis and the intersection line of plane 83 and the XY-plane. This intersection line may be considered as a line that is tangent to a point on a tooth of the upper jaw in the mesial-distal direction.\nWith respect to a corresponding tooth in the lower jaw, FIG. 9C shows a plane 86 that is tangential to a point 86A on a tooth of the lower jaw 87. In this case, point 86A is provided at the center of the facial surface of the canine tooth, although point 86A may be provided at any suitable point and tooth that corresponds to the point and tooth chosen for the upper jaw. Like plane 83, plane 86 may be graphically provided in a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system 88, but in this case the origin of the coordinate system 88 is disposed at point 86A, and an angle S is formed between the Y-axis and the intersection line of plane 86 and the XY-plane. This intersection line may be considered as a line that is tangent to a point on a tooth of the lower jaw in the mesial-distal direction.\nThe average direction line of the tangent lines may then be determined. For example, FIG. 9D shows the tangent lines (i.e., intersection lines) for each of the upper and lower jaws drawn on a common Cartesian coordinate system. Intersection line 83A is the line representing the intersection line of plane 83 and the XY-plane, while intersection line 86A is the line representing the intersection line of plane 86 and the XY-plane. FIG. 9E shows the average line 89 of the tangent lines. The average line 89 is determined by drawing a line at an angle T from the Y-axis, where the angle T is equal to the average of angle R and angle S.\nA measurement plane may then be generated using the average direction line determined from the tangent lines. For example, FIG. 9F shows a measurement plane 89A formed using average line 89. In this case, measurement plane 89A extends in the Z-plane and passes through average line 89. The measurement plane may represent a plane that is the average of tangential planes 83 and 86, where the average is the average of the direction that each of tangential planes 83 and 86 are arranged in the mesial-distal direction.\nA distance between points 83A and 86A may then be determined using the measurement plane 89 a. For example, FIG. 9G shows measurement plane 89A disposed proximate to upper jaw 84 and lower jaw 87 when the patient's mouth is closed. Measurement plane 89A may be arranged between points 83A and 86A, or at any other suitable location. Points 83A and 86A may then be projected onto plane 89A. For example, FIG. 9H shows plane 89A represented as a two-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system 91. The X-axis is in the mesial-distal direction and the Y-axis is perpendicular to the X-axis. Point 83A is projected onto plane 89A as point 83AA, and point 86A is projected onto plane 89A as point 86AA. A distance U between points 83AA and 86AA along the X-axis may then be determined and subsequently used for determining whether patient has a malocclusion and, in some cases, the type of malocclusion.\nTurning back to FIG. 7, in operation 66, a determination is made as to whether the distance is within an allowable range. If it is determined that the distance is within an allowable range, then no malocclusion is detected as shown in operation 67. On the other hand, if it is determined that distance is not within the allowable range, a malocclusion is detected as shown in operation 68.\nThe allowable range may be any suitable range for defining a malocclusion, and may include different ranges for identifying different types of malocclusions as well as different severity levels of the malocclusions. In one embodiment and with reference to FIG. 8A, the distance between points A and B may be less than −6 mm, and thus it may be determined that the patient has a Class III type malocclusion (distocclusion). One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that this range is merely exemplary, and other ranges suitable for identifying a Class III type malocclusion may be used. For example, a Class III type malocclusion may be identified if the distance between points A and B is less than −5 mm, −5.5 mm, −6.5 mm, −7 mm, or is less than a value in the range −5 mm to −7 mm.\nIn one embodiment and with reference to FIG. 8B, the distance between points A and B may be between −6 mm and 0 mm, and thus it may be determined that the patient has a Class I type malocclusion (neutrocclusion). One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that this range is merely exemplary, and other ranges suitable for identifying a Class I type malocclusion may be used. For example, a Class I type malocclusion may be identified if the distance between points A and B is greater than −5 mm, −5.5 mm, −6.5 mm, −7 mm, or a value in the range −5 mm to −7 mm, and less than −1 mm, −0.5 mm, 0.5 mm, 1 mm, or a value in the range −1 mm to 1 mm.\nIn one embodiment and with reference to FIG. 8C, the distance between points A and B may be greater than 0 mm, and thus it may be determined that the patient has a Class III type malocclusion (mesiocclusion). One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that this range is merely exemplary, and other ranges suitable for identifying a Class III type malocclusion may be used. For example, a Class III type malocclusion may be identified if the distance between points A and B is greater than −1 mm, −0.5 mm, 0.5 mm, 1 mm, or a value in the range −1 mm to 1 mm.\nIn some embodiments, in determining that no malocclusion is detected (operation 67), it may be determined that no specific types of malocclusion is detected. For example, in operation 66, it may be determined whether the distance between points A and B is between −6 mm and 0 mm. In this case, it may be determined that no malocclusion is detected in that neither distocclusion nor mesiocclusion are detected. If it is determined that the distance between points A and B is either less than −7 mm or greater than 0 mm, a malocclusion (i.e., distocclusion or mesiocclusion) may be detected.\nIt should be appreciated that method 60 may be implemented by any suitable electronic computing device, server, or system. A system that may be used in accordance with one embodiment is discussed later with reference to FIG. 18. Further, the specific operations illustrated in FIG. 7 provide a particular method of detecting dental malocclusions, according to certain embodiments of the present invention. Other sequences of operations may also be performed according to alternative embodiments. For example, alternative embodiments of the present invention may perform the operations outlined above in a different order. Moreover, the individual operations illustrated in FIG. 7 may include multiple sub-operations that may be performed in various sequences as appropriate to the individual operations. Furthermore, additional operations may be added or existing operations removed depending on the particular applications. One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize and appreciate many variations, modifications, and alternatives.\nIn some embodiments, methods for designing patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliances may be provided, and in some cases may be provided as part of an overall orthodontic treatment method such as that discussed with reference to FIG. 6. For example, if a malocclusion is detected using a technique such as that discussed with reference to operation 44 of FIG. 6, computer-based 3-dimensional planning/design tools, such as Treat™ software from Align Technology, Inc., may be used to design and subsequently fabricate tooth positioning appliances. In designing the tooth positioning appliances, the 3-dimensional planning/design tool may be used to place a digital representation of an elastic band receiving member (such as an orthodontic button) on a digital representation of a patient's tooth. Based on the shape, size, and/or orientation of the elastic band receiving member with respect to the patient's tooth, the 3-dimensional planning/design tool may generate a cutout line. The cutout line may subsequently be used to assist in fabricating the tooth positioning appliance, in that it may define a line for cutting the appliance such that the appliance does not interfere with the elastic band receiving member when the appliance is disposed over the patient's teeth.\nFIG. 10 is a simplified block diagram illustrating a method 90 for designing a patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance including a cutout. In one embodiment, the operations depicted and discussed with reference to method 90 may correspond to the provision for a button placement of operation 48 discussed with reference to FIG. 6. Accordingly, a digital representation of a patient's teeth arrangement may initially be acquired, as discussed with reference to operation 42 of FIG. 6.\nIn operation 92, a user selection to add an elastic band receiving member (e.g., an orthodontic button) to a tooth is received. In some embodiments, geometry information describing the geometries of one or more orthodontic elastic band receiving members may be stored in the computer-based planning/design tool, and the user may use a graphical user interface (GUI) to select one of the elastic band receiving members and its corresponding geometry. In one embodiment, after selecting the elastic band receiving member, the user may be able to modify properties of the elastic band receiving member, such as size, shape, etc. In other embodiments, the user may be able to upload to the computer-based planning/design tool geometry information describing the geometry of a custom elastic band receiving member, and subsequently use the custom elastic band receiving member for designing the tooth positioning appliance.\nIn receiving the user selection to add an elastic band receiving member to a tooth, computer-based planning/design tool also receives a user selection of a particular tooth and tooth surface. For example, the user may select a molar, a premolar, an incisor, or any other suitable tooth. In some embodiments, computer-based planning/design tool may provide a default tooth surface. For example, in response to the user selecting a particular tooth, the elastic band receiving member may be added to a facial surface of the selected tooth. In one embodiment, the user may select the tooth surface on which the elastic band receiving member is to be added, such as a facial surface, a lingual surface, or any other suitable surface.\nFIG. 11A shows a simplified digital representation 100 of a patient's tooth 102 having an elastic band receiving member 104 disposed thereon. Digital representation 100 may include teeth other than tooth 102, or may include only tooth 102. Further, digital representation 100 may include other dental features as well, such as gingiva 106. In some embodiments, in response to receiving a user selection add an elastic band receiving member to a tooth, digital representation 100 may be displayed to the user, where tooth 102 represents the user-selected tooth and elastic band receiving member 104 represents the user-selected elastic band receiving member.\nTurning back to FIG. 10, in operation 94, the elastic band receiving member is positioned on the tooth in a default position. In positioning the elastic band receiving member in a default location, the computer-based planning/design tool may place the elastic band receiving member in any suitable location on the surface of the tooth such that the elastic band receiving member may function as intended. In some embodiments, this may include positioning the elastic band receiving member a distance away from various dental features, such as the gingival line, the occlusal surface, the distal surface, the mesial surface, etc. In one embodiment, this may include positioning the elastic band receiving member in a center of the tooth surface.\nFIG. 11B shows a simplified digital representation 110 of a patient's tooth 102 and an elastic band receiving member 104 with overlaid placement guidelines, where the placement guidelines may be used to determine the default location. In this embodiment, the computer-based planning/design tool may determine a width W of tooth 102, and use W to identify a centerline C (e.g., by dividing W in half). Elastic band receiving member 104 may then be centered about centerline C. Further, a distance D between gingival line 108 and an edge of elastic band receiving member 104 may be defined. For example, D may be 0.5 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.5 mm, in the range of 0.5 to 1.5 mm, less than 0.5 mm, or greater than 1.5 mm. In some embodiments, D may be measured from the intersection point of centerline C and gingival line 108, and may always be greater than 0 mm.\nIn placing elastic band receiving member 104 in a default position, computer-based planning/design tool may ensure one or more of a variety of placement conditions are satisfied. For example, computer-based planning/design tool may ensure that elastic band receiving member 104 does not contact the gingival line, does not overlap with other teeth, is placed entirely on a single surface of a tooth, etc.\nTurning back to FIG. 10, in operation 96, the elastic band receiving member may be repositioned on the tooth in response to a user input. Once the elastic band receiving member has originally been placed, the user may change a position, orientation, or the like of the elastic band receiving member. For example, the user may rotate the elastic band receiving member, move the elastic band receiving member horizontally or vertically, etc. In some embodiments, computer-based planning/design tool may prevent the user from violating one or more of the placement conditions. In other embodiments, computer-based planning/design tool may allow the user to violate or otherwise override one or more of the placement conditions.\nIn operation 97, a cutout line is generated, where the cutout line extends between a first point on a gingival line of the tooth and a second point on the gingival line of the tooth. For example, FIG. 11C shows a simplified digital representation 120 of a patient's tooth 102 and an elastic band receiving member 104 with cutout line 112. Cutout line 112 extends between a first point F located on gingival line 108 and a second point G located on gingival line 108. Cutout line 112 may be subsequently used to define a line for cutting a tooth positioning appliance, and specifically for cutting a portion of a tooth positioning appliance that will be disposed over a patient's tooth having an elastic band receiving member attached thereto. Accordingly, cutout line 112 may be any suitable line that, when subsequently used to cut a tooth positioning appliance, results in a tooth positioning appliance that does not interfere with an elastic band receiving member disposed on a patient's tooth. In some embodiments, cutout line 112 may be displayed by computer-based planning/design tool, while in other embodiments cutout line 112 may not be displayed. In at least one embodiment, cutout line 112 may be recalculated in response to a repositioning of elastic band receiving member 104.\nIn some embodiments, cutout line 112 may be optimized by the computer-based planning/design tool. For example, cutout line 112 may be calculated as the shortest line that extends from the gingival line on one side of elastic band receiving member 104 to the gingival line on the opposite side of elastic band receiving member 104 while passing between elastic band receiving member 104 and an occlusal surface of tooth 102 and not contacting elastic band receiving member 104.\nIn one embodiment, cutout line 112 may be shaped to conform to at least a portion of the shape of elastic band receiving member 104. For example, with reference to FIG. 11C, elastic band receiving member 104 is circular, and cutout line 112 includes a portion extending between elastic band receiving member 104 and the occlusal surface of the tooth that has a similar radius as the radius of elastic band receiving member 104. In one embodiment, a distance H may be defined between an edge of elastic band receiving member 104 and a portion of cutout line 112. Distance H may be any suitable distance greater than 0 mm, such as 0.5 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.5 mm, in a range from 0.5 mm to 1.5 mm, less than 0.5 mm, or greater than 1.5 mm.\nIn some embodiments, a location of points F and G on gingival line 108 (i.e., the endpoints of cutout line 112) may be constrained. For example, FIG. 11D shows a simplified digital representation 130 of a patient's tooth 102 and an elastic band receiving member 104 with a cutout line and overlaid constraint lines W, X, Y, and Z. Constraint lines W and Z may pass through gingival line 108 at opposite edge of tooth 102, while constraint lines X and Y may pass through gingival line 108 at opposite edges of elastic band receiving member 104. In some embodiments, point F may be limited to a location on gingival line 108 between constraint lines W and X, while point G may be limited to a location on gingival line 108 between constraint lines Y and Z. In other embodiments, points F and G may be limited to a location that is at least a certain distance away from one or more of constraint lines W, X, Y, and Z. For example, point F may be limited to a location that is at least 1 mm away from constraint line W.\nIn some embodiments, various other conditions may be imposed on cutout line 112, tooth 102, and/or elastic band receiving member 104. For example, cutout line 112 may be required to not intersect with itself. For another example, elastic band receiving member 104 may be limited to an area between gingival line 108 and cutout line 112. For yet another example, surfaces of tooth 102 may not be manipulable.\nTurning back to FIG. 10, in operation 98, the cutout line is rearranged in response to a user input. A position, length, shape and/or orientation of the cutout line may be rearranged as desired in accordance with a user input. For example, computer-based planning/design tool may initially generate a cutout line based on a shape and position of an elastic band receiving member and one or more constraints, and may then subsequently allow a treating practitioner to alter the default cutout line as desired.\nIn one embodiment, nodes may facilitate the rearrangement of the cutout line. For example, FIG. 11E shows a simplified digital representation 140 of a patient's tooth 102 and an elastic band receiving member 104 with a cutout line having user-manipulable nodes 114-118. One or more user-manipulable nodes may be provided, where the nodes operate to segment the cutout line into a plurality of connected lines having shapes that are user-manipulable. In this embodiment, five nodes are shown. A user may reposition a node such as node 116, whereby repositioning the node may result in the lines to adjacent nodes (e.g., the cutout line between nodes 115 and 116, and the cutout line between nodes 116 and 117) being adjusted. For example, FIG. 11F shows a simplified digital representation 150 of a patient's tooth 102 and an elastic band receiving member 104 with a manipulated cutout line 112. In this case, nodes 115 and 117 have been repositioned to a location closer to gingival line 108.\nOnce the cutout line has been generated, the cutout line may be used to fabricate an orthodontic tooth positioning appliance. For example, FIG. 11G is a simplified representation 160 of an orthodontic tooth positioning appliance 122 disposed over a tooth 102 having an elastic band receiving member 104 attached thereto. Orthodontic tooth positioning appliance 122 includes a cutout 124, where cutout 124 has a shape defined by the generated cutout line. In this example, cutout 124 has a shape defined by cutout line 122 discussed with reference to FIGS. 11C, 11D, and 11E. Accordingly, it may be recognized that cutout line 112 and subsequently cutout line 122 may define a gingival-facing surface of orthodontic tooth positioning appliance 122.\nIt should be appreciated that method 90 may be implemented by any suitable electronic computing device, server, or system. A system that may be used in accordance with one embodiment is discussed later with reference to FIG. 18. Further, the specific operations illustrated in FIG. 10 and also discussed with reference to FIGS. 11A to 11G provide a particular method of designing a patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance, according to certain embodiments of the present invention. Other sequences of operations may also be performed according to alternative embodiments. For example, alternative embodiments of the present invention may perform the operations outlined above in a different order. Moreover, the individual operations illustrated in FIG. 10 and also discussed with reference to FIGS. 11A to 11G may include multiple sub-operations that may be performed in various sequences as appropriate to the individual operations. Furthermore, additional operations may be added or existing operations removed depending on the particular applications. One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize and appreciate many variations, modifications, and alternatives.\nIn some embodiments, in addition or alternatively to placing a digital representation of an elastic band receiving member on a digital representation of a patient's tooth and using the digital representation of the elastic band receiving member to generate a cutout line, computer-based planning/design tool may generate a cutout line for defining a hook to be fabricated in the orthodontic tooth positioning appliance. This may include receiving user inputs for identifying a tooth and tooth surface to place the hook, as well as user inputs for reshaping a default cutout line.\nFIG. 12 is a simplified block diagram illustrating a method 170 for designing a patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance including a hook. In one embodiment, the operations depicted and discussed with reference to method 170 may correspond to the provision for a hook placement of operation 50 discussed with reference to FIG. 6. Accordingly, a digital representation of a patient's teeth arrangement may initially be acquired, as discussed with reference to operation 42 of FIG. 6.\nIn operation 172, a user selection to add a hook (e.g., a portion of a patient-removable tooth positioning appliance operable to receive an elastic band) to a tooth is received. Operation 172 may be similar to operation 92 discussed with reference to FIG. 10, but in this case the user selection is to add a hook rather than an elastic band receiving member. Accordingly, the user may select a particular tooth and tooth surface to add a hook.\nIn operation 174, computer-based planning/design tool generates a hook cutout line extending between a first point on a gingival line of the tooth and a point on the tooth outside of the gingival line. For example, FIG. 13A shows a simplified digital representation 180 of a patient's tooth 102 having a cutout line 182 for a hook disposed thereon. Digital representation 180 may include teeth other than tooth 102, or may include only tooth 102. Further, digital representation 180 may include other dental features as well, such as gingiva 106. In some embodiments, in response to receiving a user selection add a hook to a tooth, digital representation 180 may be displayed to the user, where tooth 102 represents the user-selected tooth and cutout line 182 represents a portion of a cutout line that may be used to define a hook in a fabricated tooth positioning appliance. Cutout line 182 extends between point H located on gingival line 108 and point I which is located on a surface of tooth 102 but not on gingival line 108.\nIn some embodiments, the cutout line may be positioned in a default location. In positioning the cutout line in a default location, computer-based planning/design tool may orient the cutout line in any direction on the surface of the tooth such that a resulting hook may function as intended. For example, FIG. 13B shows a simplified digital representation 190 of a patient's tooth 102 having a cutout line 182 disposed in a first orientation. For purposes of explanation, cutout line 182 may be said to point in a distal direction, in which case a resulting hook formed in an orthodontic positioning appliance may have an opening facing the distal direction. Although not shown, the cutout line may alternatively be pointed in a mesial direction.\nIn some embodiments, default hook orientations may be associated with each tooth. For example, for molars and second pre-molars, default hook orientations may be orientations in the distal direction. For first pre-molars, canines, and incisors, default hook orientations may be orientations in the mesial direction. These associations may be stored by computer-based planning/design tool such that in response to a user selecting a particular tooth to add a hook, the default hook orientation may be determined.\nIn some embodiments, once a hook orientation is determined, a location of the hook may be determined. For example, with reference to FIG. 13B, computer-based planning/design tool may determine the width of tooth 102 and centerline C. Computer-based planning/design tool may then identify a portion 184 of gingival line 108 on which an end point of cutout line 182 may be located. In one embodiment, portion 184 of gingival line 108 may be located between centerline C and an edge of tooth 102. In response to determining a distal-oriented hook, computer-based planning/design tool may locate an end of cutout line 182 somewhere along (e.g., at the center of) portion 184 of gingival line 108.\nIn some embodiments, geometry information describing the geometry of the hook may be stored in the computer-based planning/design tool and provide a default location and orientation of the hook cutout. For example, FIG. 13C shows a simplified digital representation 200 of a patient's tooth 102 and geometrical information for a cutout line 182. The geometrical information includes a slit offset L, a hook width M, a hook length N, and a hook angle O. Default values for the geometrical information may be stored by computer-based planning/design tool and used to provide a default size and orientation of the hook cutout. For example L may be 0.5 mm, 0.75 mm, 1 mm, in the range from 0.5 mm to 1 mm, less than 0.5 mm, or greater than 1 mm. M may be 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, in a range from 1 mm to 3 mm, less than 1 mm or greater than 3 mm. N may be 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, in a range from 1 mm to 3 mm, less than 1 mm or greater than 3 mm. O may be 30 degrees, 45 degrees, 60 degrees, in a range from 30 degrees to 60 degrees, less than 30 degrees or greater than 60 degrees.\nIn placing hook cutout 182 in a default position, computer-based planning/design tool may ensure one or more of a variety of placement conditions are satisfied. For example, computer-based planning/design tool may ensure that hook cutout 182 is oriented in a particular direction based on the type of tooth it is disposed over, does not extend to an occlusal surface of the tooth, does not extend to gingival line 182, does not intersect with itself, etc.\nTurning back to FIG. 12, in operation 176, the hook cutout line may be rearranged in response to a user input. Once the hook cutout line has originally been placed, the user may change a position, orientation, or the like of the hook cutout line. For example, the user may change one or more of slit offset L, hook width M, hook length N, hook angle O, and a location of point H (FIGS. 13B and 13C). In some embodiments, computer-based planning/design tool may prevent the user from violating one or more of the placement conditions. In other embodiments, computer-based planning/design tool may allow the user to violate or otherwise override one or more of the placement conditions.\nIn one embodiment, nodes may facilitate the rearrangement of the hook cutout line. For example, FIG. 13D shows a simplified digital representation 210 of a patient's tooth 102 and a hook cutout line 182 having user-manipulable nodes 183-185. User-manipulable nodes 183-185 may be similar to user-manipulable nodes 114-118 discussed with reference to FIG. 11E. In this case, a user may use user-manipulable nodes 183-185 to modify a shape of hook cutout line 182. For example, FIG. 13E shows a simplified digital representation 220 of a patient's tooth 102 and a manipulated hook cutout line 182 according to a first embodiment. In this case, nodes 184 and 185 have been repositioned to a location closer to gingival line 108. For another example, FIG. 13F shows a simplified digital representation 230 of a patient's tooth 102 and a manipulated hook cutout line 182 according to a second embodiment. In this case, hook cutout line 182 has been linearly shifted to a location closer to an edge of tooth 102.\nTurning back to FIG. 12, in operation 178, the hook cutout line may be extended from the point on the tooth outside the gingival line to a second point on the gingival line of the tooth. In extending the hook cutout line back to the gingival line, the entire hook may be defined. For example, FIG. 13G shows a simplified digital representation 240 of a patient's tooth 102 and an extended cutout line 182 according to a first embodiment. Extended cutout line 182 includes an extension from point I to a point K on gingival line 108. In this case, the extension passes through an additional point J.\nThe extension from point I to point K may have any suitable shape and length. In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 13G, the extension includes a first portion extending between points I and J and a second portion extending between points J and K. Further, the second portion extending between points J and K is in parallel with the portion extending between points H and I, and is provided at a distance from the portion extending between points H and I based on slit offset L (FIG. 13C). In this embodiment, the portion extending from point I to point J is linear. However, this portion may assume one or more curves. For example, FIG. 13H shows a simplified digital representation 250 of a patient's tooth 102 and an extended cutout line 182 according to a second embodiment. In this case, the portion extending between points I and J is a curved line rather than a straight line.\nOnce the hook cutout line has been generated, the cutout line may be used to fabricate an orthodontic tooth positioning appliance. For example, FIG. 13I is a simplified representation 260 of an orthodontic tooth positioning appliance 122 disposed over a tooth 102 and having a hook formed therein. Orthodontic tooth positioning appliance 122 includes a cutout 186, where cutout 186 has a shape defined by the extended hook cutout line. In this example, cutout 186 has a shape defined by extended cutout line 182 discussed with reference to FIG. 13H. Accordingly, it may be recognized that cutout line 182 may define a surface of orthodontic tooth positioning appliance 122 operable to receive an elastic band.\nIt should be appreciated that method 170 may be implemented by any suitable electronic computing device, server, or system. A system that may be used in accordance with one embodiment is discussed later with reference to FIG. 18. Further, the specific operations illustrated in FIG. 12 and also discussed with reference to FIGS. 13A to 13I provide a particular method of designing a patient removable orthodontic tooth positioning appliance, according to certain embodiments of the present invention. Other sequences of operations may also be performed according to alternative embodiments. For example, alternative embodiments of the present invention may perform the operations outlined above in a different order. Moreover, the individual operations illustrated in FIG. 12 and also discussed with reference to FIGS. 13A to 13I may include multiple sub-operations that may be performed in various sequences as appropriate to the individual operations. Furthermore, additional operations may be added or existing operations removed depending on the particular applications. One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize and appreciate many variations, modifications, and alternatives.\nIn some embodiments, an orientation of a hook cutout line may be optimized based on a location of an elastic band receiving member. In some embodiments, the location of the elastic band receiving member may be identified by an actual elastic band receiving member (such as elastic band receiving member 12 of FIG. 2) or a digital representation of the elastic band receiving member on a tooth (such as elastic band receiving member 104 of FIGS. 11A to 11F). In other embodiments, the location of the elastic band receiving member may be identified by an actual cutout from an tooth positioning appliance (such as cutout 124 of FIG. 11G) or a digital representation of the cutout (such as cutout line 112 of FIGS. 11C to 11F). The orientation may be determined so that an elastic band can be functionally disposed over the elastic band receiving member and the hook and, in some embodiments, may be determined as part of operation 174 or operation 176 discussed with reference to FIG. 12.\nFIG. 14 is a side view of patient's mouth 270 including a tooth positioning device requiring a hook. The tooth positioning device includes a first tooth positioning appliance 272 for disposal on teeth of the patient's upper jaw, and a second tooth positioning appliance 274 for disposal on teeth of the patient's lower jaw. In this embodiment, second tooth positioning appliance 274 includes a cutout 276 to prevent interference with an elastic band receiving member 278 disposed on a tooth of the patient's lower jaw. Accordingly, it may be desirable to provide a hook on first tooth positioning appliance 272 so that an elastic band may be used with the hook and elastic band receiving member 278.\nFIG. 15A shows a magnified portion Q of FIG. 14 without a tooth positioning appliance on the teeth of the patient's upper jaw and including a hook orientation guideline 282. The computer-based planning/design tool calculates hook orientation guideline 282 as a line extending between a tooth having an elastic band receiving member 278 and a tooth intended to have a hook disposed there over when the patient's mouth is closed. Hook orientation guidelines may then be used to cut a hook into a tooth positioning appliance to be disposed on the tooth of the patient's upper jaw.\nIn one embodiment, hook orientation guideline 282 passes through a center of elastic band receiving member 278. One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that hook orientation guideline 282 need not pass through the exact center of elastic band receiving member 278, but rather could pass through an area in the proximity of elastic band receiving member 278, such as an area defined by tooth surface 284. Further, this point may be calculated using one or more of elastic band receiving member 278 and cutout 276.\nIn one embodiment, hook orientation guideline 282 passes through a point P located on the gingival line of the tooth over which a hook is to be provided. In some embodiments, point P may be the same as point H (FIGS. 13A to 13I). For example, a user may select tooth 285 to dispose a hook over. Once tooth 285 is selected, computer-based planning/design tool may determine the orientation (mesial/distal) of the hook cutout line, and a location of point P. Computer-based planning/design tool may then subsequently generate hook orientation guideline 282 to pass through point P.\nHook orientation guideline 282 may be used to determine an angle O (FIG. 13C) of a hook cutout line. For example, FIG. 15B shows a magnified portion Q of FIG. 14 without a tooth positioning appliance on the teeth of the patient's upper jaw and including a hook cutout line 286. Hook cutout line 286 extends from point P in a direction along hook orientation guideline 282 toward elastic band receiving member 278.\nHook cutout line 286 may then be used to fabricate a tooth positioning appliance having a hook oriented in a direction of elastic band receiving member 278. For example, FIG. 15C shows a magnified portion Q of FIG. 14 where a tooth positioning appliance 272 on the teeth of the patient's upper jaw includes a hook 288. A shape of hook 288 is at least partially defined by cutout 289, where cutout 289 has a shape which extends in a substantially linear direction toward elastic band receiving member 278 when the patient's teeth are in occlusion.\nIn some embodiments, one or more a variety of techniques may be used to fabricate an orthodontic tooth positioning device such as orthodontic positioning device 30 discussed with reference to FIGS. 5A and 5B. In one case, a mold of a patient's teeth may be acquired and subsequently used to create tooth positioning appliances such as tooth positioning appliance 10 discussed with reference to FIG. 1. The tooth positioning appliance may then be trimmed using cutout lines, where the cutout lines may define gingival-facing surfaces of the tooth positioning appliance and, when used, prevent interference with an elastic band receiving member (such as an orthodontic button) and/or make the tooth positioning appliance operable to receive an elastic band (e.g., by providing a hook in the appliance). In another case, a digital representation of the tooth positioning appliance may be generated, and gingival-facing surfaces of the appliance may be digitally defined using one or more cutout lines. A tooth positioning appliance may then be directly fabricated using the digital representation of the tooth positioning appliance.\nFIG. 16 illustrates a method 310 for fabricating a tooth positioning device in accordance with a first embodiment. It should be appreciated that method 310 can be practiced in a variety of ways. For example, method 310 can be computer implemented and employ three-dimensional modeling representations and techniques.\nIn operation 312, a mold of a patient's teeth in their upper and lower jaws is built. The mold may be built using any one of a number of known techniques. For example, the mold may be built from a digital representation of the patient's dentition, via the use of dental trays and molding material, or using any other suitable technique. In some embodiments, the mold may include structures corresponding to orthodontic fixtures affixed to the patient's teeth, such as elastic band receiving members.\nIn operation 314, a sheet of material is provided over the mold. The material may be any suitable material for forming tooth positioning appliances. Examples of specific types of material which may be used include any suitable polymer material, including an elastomeric polymeric material such as Tru-Tain 0.03 in. thermal forming dental material manufactured by Tru-Tain Plastics of Rochester, Minn., and/or a thermoplastic polyurethane material such as Estane manufactured by Lubrizol of Wickliffe, Ohio, and/or a polycarbonate material such as Lexan manufactured by Saudi Basic Industries Corp. of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and/or a polyester or copolyester material such as Eastar manufactured by Eastman Corp. of Kingsport, Tenn., and/or a thermoplastic polyolefin material such as Engage manufactured by The Dow Chemical Co. of Midland, Mich.\nIn providing the sheet of material over the mold, portions of the material may assume the shape of the mold. For example, the mold and material may be provided in a vacuum chamber, whereby application of a vacuum may cause the material to form to the shape of the mold.\nIn operation 316, shaped portions of material are removed from the sheet. The shaped portions are those portions that were shaped by providing the sheet of material over the mold. The shaped portions may be removed using any known techniques, whereby the shaped portions are roughly cut from the sheet.\nIn operation 318, the shaped portions are trimmed using a button cutout line and/or a hook cutout line. For example, the shaped portions may be trimmed using cutout line 112 discussed with reference to FIGS. 11C to 11F, and/or using cutout line 182 discussed with reference to FIGS. 13A to 13H, and/or using cutout line 286 discussed with reference to FIG. 15B. The shaped portions may also be trimmed using a gingival line such as gingival line 108 discussed with reference to FIGS. 11B to 11F and FIGS. 13A to 13H. As a result, a gingival-facing surface of the trimmed shaped portions may follow the contours of a patient's gingival line and include cutouts for preventing interference with elastic band receiving members and/or cutouts for defining hooks in the trimmed shaped portions. In trimming the shaped portions, a digital representation of trimming instructions may be received, where the trimming instructions include at least one of the button cutout line and the hook cutout line.\nAny one of various techniques for trimming the shaped portions using a cutout line may be used. According to one embodiment, the shaped portions may be arranged over a mold shaped to receive the positioning appliance. A cutting element such as a disk saw may then be applied along a direction normal to a buccal surface or a labial surface of the teeth receiving cavities. While cutting, the cutting element may be retracted from the mold if the cutting element contacts a surface of the mold.\nFIG. 17 illustrates a method 320 for fabricating a tooth positioning device in accordance with a second embodiment. It should be appreciated that method 320 can be practiced in a variety of ways. For example, method 320 can be computer implemented and employ three-dimensional modeling representations and techniques.\nIn operation 322, a digital representation of a patient's teeth is received. In one embodiment, the received digital representation includes a digital representation of one or more orthodontic fixtures such as an elastic band receiving member affixed to a tooth. In another embodiment, the received digital representation is modified to add or remove the digital representation(s) of orthodontic fixture(s). The digital representation may be originally generated in any known fashion. For example, the digital representation may be originally generated by scanning the patient's. Further, the teeth may be in a current arrangement in a different arrangement. For example, the teeth may be provided in or re-arranged to an intermediate or final position.\nIn operation 324, a digital representation of one or more orthodontic tooth positioning appliances is generated, where the appliances include a button cutout line and/or a hook cutout line. The button cutout line may correspond cutout line 112 discussed with reference to FIGS. 11C to 11F. The hook cutout line may correspond to cutout line 182 discussed with reference to FIGS. 13A to 13H and/or cutout line 286 discussed with reference to FIG. 15B. The digital representation of the appliances may also include a gingival cutout line, where the gingival cutout line may correspond to gingival line 108 discussed with reference to FIGS. 11B to 11F and/or gingival line discussed with reference to FIGS. 13A to 13H. The button cutout line and hook cutout line may be generated using one or more of the methods and techniques previously discussed, and may or may not be displayed to the user. For example, in generating the button cutout line, a digital representation of an elastic band receiving member may first be generated and placed on a tooth, and the button cutout line subsequently formed partially around the elastic band receiving member.\nIn operation 326, the orthodontic tooth positioning appliances are directly fabricated. Various known manufacturing processes can be used to directly fabricate the orthodontic tooth positioning appliances using the digital representation generated in operation 324. For example, the orthodontic tooth positioning appliances may be formed by a stereo-lithography fabrication machine, where resin is selectively hardened in the shape of the tracking template. In fabricating the appliances, a digital representation of trimming instructions may be received, where the trimming instructions include at least one of the button cutout line and the hook cutout line.\nIt should be appreciated that methods 310 and 320 may be implemented by any suitable electronic computing device, server, or system. A system that may be used in accordance with one embodiment is discussed later with reference to FIG. 18. Further, the specific operations illustrated in FIGS. 16 and 17 provide particular methods of fabricating a tooth positioning device, according to certain embodiments of the present invention. Other sequences of operations may also be performed according to alternative embodiments. For example, alternative embodiments of the present invention may perform the operations outlined above in a different order. Moreover, the individual operations illustrated in FIGS. 16 and 17 may include multiple sub-operations that may be performed in various sequences as appropriate to the individual operations. Furthermore, additional operations may be added or existing operations removed depending on the particular applications. One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize and appreciate many variations, modifications, and alternatives.\nFIG. 18 is a simplified block diagram of a data processing system 400 embodying embodiments of the present invention. Data processing system 400 typically includes at least one processor 402 which communicates with a number of peripheral devices via a bus subsystem 404. These peripheral devices typically include a storage subsystem 406 (memory subsystem 408 and file storage subsystem 410), a set of user interface input and output devices 412, and an interface to outside networks 414, including the public switched telephone network. This interface is shown schematically as “Modems and Network Interface” block 414, and is coupled to corresponding interface devices in other data processing systems via a communication network interface 416. Data processing system 400 could be a terminal or a low-end personal computer or a high-end personal computer, workstation, or mainframe.\nThe user interface input devices typically include a keyboard and may further include a pointing device and a scanner. The pointing device may be an indirect pointing device such as a mouse, trackball, touchpad, or graphics tablet, or a direct pointing device such as a touch screen incorporated into the display. Other types of user interface input devices, such as voice recognition systems, are also possible.\nStorage subsystem 406 maintains the basic programming and data constructs that provide the functionality of embodiments of the present invention. Software modules used to implement the methods discussed above are typically stored in storage subsystem 406. Storage subsystem 406 typically comprises memory subsystem 408 and file storage subsystem 410.\nMemory subsystem 408 typically includes a number of memories including a main random access memory (RAM) 418 for storage of instructions and data during program execution and a read only memory (ROM) 420 in which fixed instructions are stored. In the case of Macintosh-compatible personal computers the ROM would include portions of the operating system; in the case of IBM-compatible personal computers, this would include the BIOS (basic input/output system).\nFile storage subsystem 410 provides persistent (non-volatile) storage for program and data files, and typically includes at least one hard disk drive and at least one disk drive (with associated removable media). There may also be other devices such as a CD-ROM drive and optical drives (all with their associated removable media). Additionally, the system may include drives of the type with removable media cartridges. The removable media cartridges may, for example be hard disk cartridges, such as those marketed by Syquest and others, and flexible disk cartridges, such as those marketed by Iomega. One or more of the drives may be located at a remote location, such as in a server on a local area network or at a site on the Internet's World Wide Web.\nIn this context, the term “bus subsystem” is used generically so as to include any mechanism for letting the various components and subsystems communicate with each other as intended. With the exception of the input devices and the display, the other components need not be at the same physical location. Thus, for example, portions of the file storage system could be connected via various local-area or wide-area network media, including telephone lines. Similarly, the input devices and display need not be at the same location as the processor, although it is anticipated that the present invention will most often be implemented in the context of PCs and workstations.\nBus subsystem 404 is shown schematically as a single bus, but a typical system has a number of buses such as a local bus and one or more expansion buses (e.g., ADB, SCSI, ISA, EISA, MCA, NuBus, or PCI), as well as serial and parallel ports. Network connections are usually established through a device such as a network adapter on one of these expansion buses or a modem on a serial port. The client computer may be a desktop system or a portable system.\nScanner 422 is responsible for scanning impressions or casts of the patient's teeth obtained either from the patient or from an orthodontist and providing the scanned digital data set information to data processing system 400 for further processing. According to some embodiments, canner 422 may operate to directly scan a patient's teeth and, in some cases, orthodontic fixtures such as elastic band receiving members affixed to the patient's teeth. In a distributed environment, scanner 422 may be located at a remote location and communicate scanned digital data set information to data processing system 400 via network interface 416.\nFabrication machine 424 may fabricate patient-removable orthodontic appliances based on tooth arrangement information received from data processing system 400. According to some embodiments, fabrication machine 424 may fabricate the patient-removable orthodontic appliances based on a tooth arrangement and, in some cases, information received from data processing system 400. In a distributed environment, fabrication machine 424 may be located at a remote location and receive data set information from data processing system 400 via network interface 416.\nOne or more structures as described herein may be provided in the form of a kit. For example, a kit may contain one or more of a patient-removable orthodontic appliance or plurality (e.g., set) of patient-removable orthodontic appliances (including pairs of appliances for simultaneously use with upper and lower jaws where one of the appliances includes a hook and the other appliance includes a cutout for preventing interference with a elastic band receiving member affixed to a patient's tooth). A tooth-receiving cavity of a patient-removable orthodontic appliance can be treated or altered, e.g., by chemical means, so as to affect a property of the appliance. A kit can be configured for delivery to an intended recipient (e.g., patient, practitioner, etc.) directly or indirectly. A kit can include an object or component provided separated from an appliance, but which is meant to be coupled with another component. For example, the kit may also include elastic band receiving members and/or elastic bands.\nThe software components or functions described in this application may be implemented as software code to be executed by one or more processors using any suitable computer language such as, for example, Java, C++ or Perl using, for example, conventional or object-oriented techniques. The software code may be stored as a series of instructions, or commands on a computer-readable medium, such as a random access memory (RAM), a read-only memory (ROM), a magnetic medium such as a hard-drive or a floppy disk, or an optical medium such as a CD-ROM.

Reputed artist Alarmel Valli’s performance was a dignified interplay of sringara and bhakti, within the timeless template of Margam. Undoubtedly, thematic performances have several attractions and in comparison, the delineation of the nayika pining for the divine lover may seem clichéd, but expert interpretations accentuate the rich artistic potential in depicting the heroine in love. Valli is well known for her nuanced expositions and, over the course of the performance, she smoothly unveiled ideas relating to these concepts.\nLeave a reply on "The nuances stood out"

Mark Twain is probably the most quoted (and misqouted) person in history. I have heard two variations of a similar statement attributed to him: ‘I am an old man and have known a great many troubles, but most of them never happened.’ OR ‘I have been through some terrible things in my life, some which actually happened.’ I am curious if that is truly Twain.\nAttributed to Mark Twain in Reader’s Digest, Apr. 1934. A similar remark, attributed to an anonymous octogenarian, appears in the Washington Post, Sept. 11, 1910.\nMaybe Garson O’Toole or one of our other crack researchers can find more pre-1910 versions of the saying attributed to Twain.\nI keep hearing variations of the following as Twain: :"History may not repeat but it rhymes."\nBut I have never been able to track that back to Twain anywhere.\nI have frequently made the exact same point in this thread.\nWhile the information is frequently interesting; I find overall practice of trying to "attribute" sayings, and the occasional tone of "factualness" very odd.\nClearly if we know anything about "sayings" and "quotes" we know that almost all of them are stolen, and that their first published instances are not their first actual instances. It is a a Sisyphean task.\nTo which I could only respond: "A lady is one who knows how to make a SOCK MONKEY-- but refrains."\nA good story was told of an old man who had endured many of the ills of life in his long journey. His friends upon one occasion, more trying than usual, condoled with him, saying that he really had more troubles than other men. "Yes, my friends, that is too true. I have been surrounded by troubles all my life long, but there is a curious thing about them—nine-tenths of them never happened."\nOur deepest fear isn't that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us.\nCongratulations to Ken Hirsch for his great cite. The quotation about illusory troubles is intriguing, and I hope to explore it at some point. Recently, I've been on the road with just a notebook computer, and it has been awkward to search and perform other tasks. Now I'm behind schedule.\nA London journal of high standing recently invited single-sentence descriptions of a gentleman, and among others was: "A gentleman is one who "can play the saxophone—and doesn't."\nHere is a citation critical of bagpipes.\nToday's Chuckle: A true gentleman is one who can play the bagpipes - and doesn't.\nThe Penguin Dictionary of Modern Quotations (1980) has a 1976 cite for the bagpipe variant quote. The Penguin Dictionary of Modern Humorous Quotations (1986) also has the bagpipe variant but gives no date.\n"Only boring people get bored."\nAlright, I found myself exlaiming "Oh, poop on a stick" the other day and wondered why, and what it meant. I then found my wife says it all the time (where I learned it from) but we couldn't figure out where she learned it from. I've seen it on South Park episodes (after googling, I don't watch South Park). Where did this saying come from?\nAdding further to this conversation (I can't help myself), I saw this quote today attributed to Winston Churchill (same birthday as Mr. Clemens): “When I look back on all these worries, I remember the story of the old man who said on his deathbed that he had had a lot of trouble in his life, most of which had never happened.” So was it Churchill or an anonymous 80-year-old--or are all these renditions simply redacted versions of Jefferson's opine?\nMy father-in-law used to attribute this quote to William James. I've never been able to find the reference.\n"A generalization is useful only insofar as one's knowledge of the particulars may take him."\nI love the quote. Who said it, besides my father-in-law?\n"The problem with internet is that you can't never be sure if a quote is certain"\nWho said, "it had the same effect as removing skippers from cheese with artillery?\n« Previous PostDoes More Education Lead to Less Religion?\nNext Post »"The Quarterback Quandary"

There was a solemn atmosphere in High Wycombe Town centre on the morning of Sunday 11th November 2018 for the annual Remembrance Day parade.\nThis years Remembrance Day Parade carried with it extra significance as it coincided with the 100th Anniversary of the end of the First World War.\nAt 10.30am the procession left Queen Victoria Road and made its way towards the High Street where the High Sheriff of Buckinghamshire, Professor R S Farwell CBE DL, and the Mayor of High Wycombe, Cllr Sarfaraz Khan Raja, took the salute from the dais.\nThe parade then went on to the War Memorial beside the Parish Church where a short service took place followed by the laying of the wreaths.\nHundreds of civilians and service personnel filled the the roads around the War Memorial, with Castle Street being filled to capacity. Personnel from the Buckinghamshire Fire & Rescue Service were also in attendance with their members standing outside the Post Office.\nAfter the two minutes of silence was observed there followed the laying of wreaths on the War Memorial. A hymn was then sung before the dignitaries and service personnel went inside the Parish Church for a further service.\nWreaths were also laid at the War Memorial next to the main entrance at Wycombe Hospital where the plaques bearing the names of those from High Wycombe and surrounding villages who perished in the Great War are displayed.\nA wreath was also laid on the Dunkirk Memorial in Castle Street.\nDunkirk Memorial, Castle Street, High Wycombe.\nAnother wreath was laid at the memorial to National Service Personnel in the Library Gardens in Queen Victoria Road.\nNational Service Memorial, Queen Victoria Road, High Wycombe.\nHowever there were no wreaths laid at the memorial in London Road to those who fell in the Burma conflict.

Nigerian cross-dresser, Bobrisky has been captured yet again, looking unappealing in an unfiltered photo of himself and a fan.\nThe effeminate was on set of a movie in Benue and a fan took a picture with him and in the photo, he looks way different from how people see him when he’s the one who shares the photos.\nThis comes after we reported that the effeminate will be making a movie with actress, Anita Joseph in Enugu – a follower of the latter was displeased by this development and so cursed that the movie won’t make waves.

Delivering an integrated diving solution, James Fisher Marine Services (JFMS) supported the successful cable installation at the MeyGen tidal energy array.\nJFMS completed the messenger wire installation and shore end cable pull-in operations at MeyGen Limited’s (MeyGen) Pentland Firth tidal energy array. JFMS supported its sister company Mojo Maritime, who acted as project lead, in providing expertise in the subsea diving element of the project.\nEquipment was mobilised from its diving operations base in Yorkshire to the remote location of Pentland Firth. This included the safe delivery of a dive control unit and a deck decompression chamber.\nOperating from a diving platform, the team conducted preparatory dives to support the laying of 11km of export cable. The operation was shaped by some of the world's most extreme environmental conditions with tidal speed reaching up to 6 knots creating small windows of opportunity in which divers could safely enter the water.\nTo optimise operational dive time and to support ad hoc diver intervention, the team was mobilised throughout the duration of the project on a 24 hour basis - providing a flexible diving solution.\nCompleting the project, JFMS utilised its multi-skilled divers to deliver the shore end cable pull-ins, which connects the tidal energy array to the main electricity grid.

Since early December there have been violent protests and criminal acts taking place in Northern Ireland as a result of Belfast City Council’s decision to change their policy on the flying of the Union Flag over Belfast City Hall. Previously, the flag was flown every day, but the new policy is for it to be flown only on a number of designated days a year.\nUntil fairly recently, the policy for many government buildings throughout the UK was for the flag to be flown only on these flag-flying days: dates such as the Queen’s birthday, or the anniversary of Her Majesty’s accession to the throne – hardly key dates in the Republican calendar, one would have thought; yet with their agreement it is on these days that the flag will now be flown in Belfast. A few years ago, the UK government did announce that government departments could fly the flag all year round if they so chose, but many still stick to the old schedule. Indeed, the government-owned site where I work flies the Union Flag on those selected days. Because it isn’t flown every day, people tend to notice it when it is flown, and comment on it. It can be fun to try and figure out what anniversary is being marked. I actually find the idea of flying a national flag continuously to be quite a foreign concept. If you visit cities on mainland Europe, they are often covered in flags. It’s all very pretty, but it just isn’t the British way of doing things. Only at British embassies in foreign cities can you be sure of seeing the Union Flag flown every day, and I doubt that’s the effect the protesters in Belfast are hoping to achieve.\nOne particularly sad aspect of the violence when it began in December was that the homes and offices of politicians belonging to the non-sectarian Alliance Party were targeted in particular. As they hold the balance of power between the Republicans/Nationalists and Loyalists/Unionists on Belfast City Council, some people saw the decision as their “fault”. Yet the original proposal tabled had been for the Union Flag not be to flown at all. The Alliance Party had suggested using the traditional UK flag flying days as a compromise, which was then approved in a vote.\nIt would be easy for people in Northern Ireland to say that those of us outside the Province should mind our own business, and that outsiders simply do not understand the issues that exist there. Yet the fact is the “Loyalists” claim to loyal to be British Crown, and are protesting over the right to fly the British flag. And as the violence has escalated, it is British police officers that have come under attack. That’s not a sort of Britishness many would recognise in any other part of the United Kingdom. Being British isn’t about flying flags every day or marching with banners and symbols. It’s about shared values including being tolerant of others, fair play, and showing respect for civic institutions such as the police or democratically elected councillors. If people in Northern Ireland wish to be British, then as someone who wholeheartedly supports the existence of the United Kingdom I am perfectly happy with that. But if they instead wish to pursue their own brand of Ulster Loyalism, most British people would prefer they found their own flag to march under.

Award winning recycled glass countertop manufacturer IceStone announces a new color to their line.\nBrooklyn, NY – Just a few months removed from the new year, IceStone has released a new color conveniently named Confetti. The idea of Confetti was inspired by another IceStone color, Snow Flurry. While both colors contain the smallest glass aggregates out of all the IceStone’s colors, Confetti consists of red, green, blue, and clear glass, giving it a colorful and festive appeal. Confetti’s white background allows it to blend in with any design, while the addition of the colorful glass aggregates bring a bit of pop and flair.\n“We’re very excited about Confetti. It’s been 4 years since we’ve introduced a new color. It takes years to properly develop a brand new color concept and pattern with extensive research, development, and testing. Using our existing Snow Flurry as the base for Confetti and adding existing colors of glass used elsewhere helped us develop Confetti in a few short months. It was a collaborative effort of our entire team choosing the colors, sizes and quantity to create the perfect ratio,” says IceStone’s President Lisa Bowen. With the goal of becoming a 100% sustainable company, the creation of Confetti allows IceStone to take advantage of extra glass in its inventory, thus establishing another way for IceStone to achieve its sustainability goals.

Safety features and enhanced comfort are the major factors for the increased demand of these light vehicle seating’s market. New designs using new materials assembly mechanisms and foams are expected to drive the market demand. Safety, comfort, and flexibility are the major drivers ofthis industry. Changing customer preferences have forced manufacturers to find innovative ways to cave into the rear seat rows. The seats of the vehicle are now comfortable and safer than it used to be before. Innovation and development are taking place at a faster rate in the light vehicle seating market. Rather than focusing on seating ergonomics, manufacturers are now focused on integrating fragrances, diverse seat fabrics, and added waterproof & breathable surface designs. Changing customer needs onseating arrangement is expected to have apositive impact on market growth.\nSports vehicles are the major contributors to the market demand for light vehicle seating. The other contributors include cars and trucks. Manufacturers are also working on reducing the weight of the vehicle by reducing the weight of seating in vehicles.\nMajor players are also innovating to integrate seat heaters thatwould provide warmth to all parts of the seat in order to satisfy customers. While there is an increase in the seat heating industry, demand for seat cooling is expected to gather momentum overthe forecast period.\nThe dominant region in the light vehicle seating market is AsiaPacific. The growth in this region can be attributed to the growing disposable income of population and the presence of manufacturers in this region. The demand for small cars is prominent in this region thatis aiding the growth of light vehicle seating market in this region. Japan is driving market growth in this region due to the presence of major automobile manufacturers in the country. North Americais the second most dominant region owingto increased demand for automobiles in theregion. The growing interest rates can hinder market growth of light vehicle seating market in this region. The growth in this region is driven by the presence of manufacturers in the U.S and the research and innovation efforts carried out by the manufacturers. The European Light Vehicle Market is also growing substantially due to increasing demand for small vehicles.\nThe key manufacturers in this market include LEAR Corporation, Johnson Controls, Magna International, Faurecia SA, NHK Spring Co., TS Tech Co., Tachi-S, Toyota Boshoku Corporation, Toyo Tire and Rubber Co, Ltd., Woodbridge Group, Recticel SA, Grupo Antolin Irausa S.A., Kongsberg Automotive, Sharda Motor Industries, Grammer AG, Freudenberg, Dura Automotive Systems LLC, CVG Seating, Gentherm Inc., ContiTech, Brose Fahrzeugteile GmbH & Co.KG, Aisin Seiki Co., Ltd., and Autoliv.

Although commonly used and accepted, the term "adult stem cells" is a little misleading, since these cells are actually found in infants and children as well as in adults. Adult stem cells produce the different kinds of cells that maintain the bodys tissues and organs, and, importantly, they have the ability to divide and reproduce indefinitely. These cells typically produce the type of tissue in which they are found. Adult stem cells are sometimes also called somatic stem cells.\nVarious types of adult stem cells have been identified in many organs and tissues. They range from cells that are able to form many different kinds of tissues to more specialized cells that form just some of the cells of a particular tissue or organ. Mesenchymal stem cells, for example, are adult stem cells that form fat cells, cartilage, bone, tendon, ligaments, muscle cells, skin cells and even nerve cells. In contrast, hematopoietic stem cells give rise to blood cells only (red cells, white cells and platelets), while neural stem cells form only cells in the nervous system.\nOften confused with adult stem cell, progenitor cells are early descendants of stem cells that can differentiate to form one or more kinds of cells, but cannot divide and reproduce indefinitely.\nSome tissues and organs have more adult stem cells than others. Those organs with fewer or no stem cells (the heart, for example) dont readily regenerate when they are injured or diseased.\nScientists around the world are actively studying ways to isolate different kinds of adult stem cells, to control and expand the rate at which they make copies of themselves, and to learn how to direct them to form the specific cell types needed for treatment.

One reason why mental health illness is a growing problem in today’s society, is because our society is gaining speed and moving faster than ever; many more people are experiencing a more complicated lifestyle. It affect a large number of the population. And as the world gets more advanced many others are feeling the affect.\nThe cost of treatment is the main reason why patients fail in receiving treatment. Because of the high cost of rehabilitation services, many suffering from mental health issues go un-treated. Finding a government subsidized program without downgrading services, maybe an option.\nFor proper treatment a more holistic approach is deem necessary. Since substance abuse recovery isn’t one- dimensional, your treatment couldn’t be either.\nFinding a great location can be a challenge. Although sometimes patients are embarrassed and want to be far away from friends and family members. However, being too far from home can become a bigger burden to your family. So when picking the best treatment facility, choose the one that you will not mind traveling to at the drop of a dime.\nThis is an important step. Deciding on where you may be living for the next 30-90 days or more. You will want to spend some time talking with the staff members to make sure it’s a good fit for you.\nYes. Management plays a major role is the way businesses operate. So regardless to how well-kept the facility is, if the management team isn’t more concern about its clients… you may want to keep looking.\nSince counseling is a huge part of recovery, you will want to take some time in your decision-making process. You can look in the local directory for advertisements or ask other friends or family members for referrals. Without doubt, referrals are always better, because you can always trust a friend or former patient.\nUnfortunately, some times long-term care is needed. To ensure a pleasant stay, be sure that the mental health center has a ‘like home’ feel. The facility should be clean, neat and organized with plenty of recreational activities, to keep their clients busy.\nDon’t overlook this area. You will hate to get started in treatment and for some reason or another, you have to move to another facility.\nWhile during your recovery you will be assigned a team of counselors. Your counselors will put together a treatment plan based on your info and their professional advice. Know exactly what steps they plan to take.\nThis may sound silly or unimportant, but the company’s mission statement tells the whole company’s story in a nutshell.\nA substance abuse counselor is your partner in helping free you or a loved one from their substance dependency. It’s never too late to live a happy and mentally healthy life. So educate yourself and make a decision for your home away from home.\nMany people plan on relying on their children when it comes time for senior care, but what do you do if you have no children or your kids end up not being able to help you out? Assisted living might end up being your best choice in such a situation, especially if you do not have some sort of care plan already in place. Assisted living facilities act as an important safety net for the senior citizens that are in need of some sort of extra help. Senior housing in general is an important feature for people who need the support but do not have many other options-such as a family member to live with or a friend that can occasionally check in with them.\nAssisted living facilities certainly cannot replace family, but they can surpass the level of care that a single family member alone can provide. With around the clock assistance available in the event that it is ever needed, assisted living provides a valuable tool for seniors. Nobody ever thinks or expects themselves to become incapable of caring for themselves, but emergency situations do come up, and the older you become, the more likely such a situation is to arise. Simply having a plan in place can go a long way toward helping out within an occurrence like this, but people that live alone often do not have an adequate emergency plan in place. When you live in an assisted living facility, your caretakers will always have an idea of what needs to be done in a variety of emergency situations.\nHaving a family member care for you during your senior years is a great thing, but it’s just not realistic for all situations. Even if you do have a willing family member, they might not have the necessary training or know how to give you the best care possible. When you live within an assisted living atmosphere, this situation does not occur.\nIf you don’t have a family member that is capable of helping you out, you really need to have a contingency plan set to roll out in the event that your health begins to decline or you start having difficulty caring for yourself. It is important that you are safe-if you have any doubts, it is probably a good idea to meet with a care giving institution in order to find out what type of care is going to be best for you. Assisted living is a great option, and if it turns out that you will benefit from this type of care, you want to make sure that you are in the very best of hands. Find a good assisted living facility and you will not need to worry about an emergency situation any longer.\nDogs are wonderful, loyal companions and an integral part of our families. Time flies, though, and in a few short years we start seeing changes in our faithful friends. There may be white hair around their muzzle, they may be less active and energetic, and they may be a little slow getting up. As a dog ages, his metabolism also slows, just like ours, and his health care and nutritional needs may change. Here is a look at how we can make life a little easier for our aging pets.\nElevated water and food dishes can be helpful. The height makes it more comfortable for dogs (not just older dogs, by the way) to eat and drink because it prevents strain on the neck and the feeding position is easier on their digestion.\nA ramp to get up or down safely from high areas such as a car, or a step to give him a boost to his favorite chair or your bed (if you allow him on it) may make it easier on your dog’s aging joints. They’re especially handy for larger dogs that are too big or heavy to lift easily. They come in a variety of styles and prices.\nAs you dog gets older, his nutritional needs may change. Generally, senior dogs need to eat a balanced diet that is lower in calories, protein, and fat than the food they ate as youngsters. Mature dogs may experience constipation, so a diet high in fiber is recommended. If your dog is still active and healthy, you may be able to continue feeding him his regular food, but a lesser amount. You can add oat bran or wheat for extra fiber. There are also commercial senior dog foods available.\nAlso consider nutritional supplements. I have been giving my dog a supplement of glucosamine and chondroitin since she was a puppy to help keep her joints healthy. Hopefully this will help reduce the possibility/effects of arthritis as she gets older. Also, if you feel your dog is not getting his nutritional needs met through diet, there are number of good canine nutritional supplements available.\nYou may see signs in your dog like loss of appetite, weakness, irritability, changes in his gait, incontinence, or slowness in getting up. Typically, these are signs that your pet is getting older and will need extra care and attention. Talk to your vet about what you can do to help your pet as he ages, and have your vet perform a yearly geriatric exam so he can try to take care of any new health issues before they progress.\nMost of all, give your mature dog extra love and care. Our dogs give us years of affection, loyalty, and attention; don’t they deserve the very best care we can give them?\nYou may wonder what is more important in life than money or even love. Health Care may be the answer for this question and I hope the following lines will help you all to be able to choose the best way to deal with that. Through services offered by any medical specialty, Health care embraces all the services to promote health including palliative interventions. First of all, Health Care should be better defined and understood so as any treatment and management of illness or preservation of health what is the most important thing to care for.\nThe social and political issue of access to health care in the USA has often led us to debate the subject and got us confused about the usage of terms such as Health insurance (reimbursement of costs), and the Public Health (the collective state and range of health in a population).\nA provider is a person or organization responsible to provide the delivery of a proper service in a systematic way to any individual in need of Care services. Therefore it is crucial to choose right whoever is going to be your provider and request a Free Health insurance quote whenever it is possible.\nTaking the time to see how you can get the quotation with the best rates available to assure an extraordinary Health Care for you and your family you may save a great percentage on your month’s budget and all that without being committed to anything and even before disclosing personal details.\nAfter all, saving money is mandatory especially nowadays and Health Care is not cheap wherever you go for it. Concerning all of what has been said above finding any free quoting service to guaranty you and you beloveds the best of life surely is something we should take advantage of.\nSo having an understanding of why and how you can get a free quotation to find whatever fits you best to assure a proper Health Care to everybody in your house or company or whoever needs it, hopefully, you will be more encouraged to take advantage of this great offer, and see how you and your family can benefit, save money, and enjoy a new Health care service and don’t lose track – Health is what we most have to care for.

Here's what we know right now about meditation—and what we don't.\nDuring the past two decades, more and more scientists have studied mindfulness—a Buddhist-inspired collection of practices aimed at helping us to cultivate moment-to-moment awareness of ourselves and our environment. Their early findings triggered an enormous amount of enthusiasm for meditation.\nThis essay was adapted from Greater Good content for the January issue of Lion's Roar: Buddhist Wisdom for Our Time. Subscribe now!\nMeditation almost certainly does sharpen your attention.\nLong-term, consistent meditation does seem to increase resiliency to stress.\nRead 10 questions to ask about scientific studies.\nHow mindful are you? Take our quiz and try these mindfulness practices.\nMeditation does appear to increase compassion. It also makes our compassion more effective.\nMeditation does seem to improve mental health—but it’s not necessarily more effective than other steps you can take.\nA way to help you feel more connected to others.\nMindfulness could have a positive impact on your relationships.\nFor example, in one 2016 study, researchers measured mindfulness in 88 couples. Then they took cortisol levels in each couple before and after they discussed a conflict in their relationship. Unsurprisingly, cortisol levels spiked during the discussion, a sign of high stress. But levels in the most mindful people—both men and women—were quicker to return to normal after the conflict ended, suggesting they were keeping their cool.\nThis result is echoed in many studies of mindfulness in romantic relationships from the beginning to the very end—in fact, there are quite a few studies that find that mindfulness makes breakup and divorce easier.\nMindfulness seems to reduce many kinds of bias.\nA way to build resilience to stress, anxiety, and anger.\nMeditation does have an impact on physical health—but it’s modest.\nIn a new study published in the journal PLoS ONE, Jared Lindahl and colleagues interviewed 100 meditators about “challenging” experiences. They found that many of them experienced fear, anxiety, panic, numbness, or extreme sensitivity to light and sound that they attributed to meditation. Crucially, they found that these experiences weren’t restricted to people with “pre-existing” conditions, like trauma or mental illness; they could happen to anyone at any time.\nWhat kind of meditation is right for you? That depends.\nThis exercise helps you develop a mindful awareness of your bodily sensations.\nHow much meditation is enough? That also depends.\nThis article was largely adapted from other content in Greater Good Magazine, and updated to include new research, for Lion’s Roar Magazine.

Kildare tourism has huge scope for visitor growth, including the potential to tap into St Brigid’s Day, according to the new Chairperson of Kildare Fáilte.\nPunchestown Chairperson David Mongey chaired his first meeting of the county’s tourism board last week.\n“I think we can do a lot to create awareness of St Brigid’s feast day on February 1, and turn it into a celebration of our county at home and for Kildare people living abroad,” he said.\nMr Mongey, CEO of Naas-based Mongey Communications, said the development of an international Kildare Day were among his ideas to increase Kildare’s visitor numbers.\nMr Mongey added that he would be working to meet the targets of the of the Kildare Fáilte ‘2020 Vision’ strategy.\n“Kildare tourism can build on its established, internationally popular attractions and use them to build visitor numbers to newer sites focused on our wonderful waterways and walking trails,” he said.\n“There are great opportunities for private enterprise. The county’s collaborative approach of cross selling and clustering its attractions under the IntoKildare brand is bearing fruit.\nMeanwhile The Taste of Kildare Festival will take place at the K Club on Sunday, August 19.\nThe festival will celebrate the county’s great restaurants, food producers and suppliers.

The Family Policy Institute of Washington has signed onto a letter authored by FRC President Tony Perkins, addressed to Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Majority Whip John Cornyn. The letter, sent last week, expressed support for H.R. 3762, the Restoring Americans’ Healthcare Freedom Reconciliation Act of 2015, which has already passed the U.S. House and is awaiting debate in the U.S. Senate. This bill, a reconciliation bill, is slightly different from other bills in that they are not subject to filibuster, meaning that a simple majority in each chamber passes the bill.\nIf passed, experts estimate that the bill would reduce Planned Parenthood’s federal funding by almost 89% next year.\nFPIW’s response is at the requests of thousands of Washingtonians outraged at the continued funding of Planned Parenthood. While this bill is considered “privileged” and is likely to pass the U.S. Senate, President Obama is expected to veto it.\nYou can read the letter in its entirety at this link and sign the petition to Defund Planned Parenthood here.\nWhat Should I Do With an Extra Hour?

The first step in the painting process is to have the house cleaned. The best way to clean your home is power washing. Power washing is an effective and efficient way to clean the surfaces on the exterior of your home. A mixture of bleach and TSP (tri-sodium phosphate) along with water is the best solution to remove mold, mildew and chalking that may exist on the siding.\nIf the paint on the siding is loose and peeling, a lot of that will be removed as well by power washing. There will be some loose paint left behind that will have to be hand scraped. Once the house is given adequate time to dry, your paint contractor should return and continue to prepare the house for paint.\nThe next step in the preparation process is actually protection. All walk-ways, the driveway, roof and landscaping should be covered with drop cloths while the painters are working in those areas. All windows, light fixtures and other items not getting painted should be covered by plastic or masked off with tape. Once all protection is in place your painter should go around the home and scrape all loose and peeling paint off the home.\nAfter the loose paint is removed all gaps and cracks in the home should be caulked with a paintable latex caulk. All bare wood areas should be primed with a high quality exterior primer. Once all of these preparation stages are complete, your house is finally ready to be painted!\nAs you can see preparing a house for paint is not a quick and easy process. It is actually time consuming and absolutely necessary for a quality paint job. Preparation is usually 80% of the paint process. It sets the tone for the entire paint job and if overlooked or done poorly it could result in a less than desirable end product. If all proper steps are taken to prepare your house for paint you can expect excellent results and your home looking beautiful for years to come.

It’s our name, and it is the underlying principle we pursue with a vengeance every day.\nWe are an innovative, multi-disciplinary marketing group made up of ANALYSTs, strategists and creatives—a dynamic symbiosis of three fundamental elements of the marketing mix.\nWe believe the whole really is greater than the sum of its parts—that insight, strategy and brand should coexist seamlessly to create truly powerful marketing outcomes.\nStart to finish, and all under one roof, we develop strategy forged from analysis and insight, to inspire compelling brand communication.\nIt’s what makes concerto...well, concerto.\nWe believe that knowledge trumps supposition every time. It’s why we are so committed to gaining an intimate understanding of the audience.\nStrategy should always be the bridge between insight and action, because research without strategy goes nowhere and a brand without strategy struggles to go anywhere. Certainty is gained from the synergy of all three.\nOnly when we really understand the audience, and the course is set, do we contemplate a creative platform that inspires, focuses, and ultimately filters targeted creative direction and pinpoint execution.\nand the deeper the understanding, the greater the certainty.\nThe outcome is clarity of direction, and the confidence to expect success.\nOur objective is to inform strategy.\nAt the end of the day, we design a research strategy that delivers what each client needs.\nSuccess starts with a deeper, more robust understanding of customers. Understanding what motivates them to purchase in your category, what triggers a purchase occasion, what steps they undertake to research or buy, and what factors persuade them to choose your brand or a competitor's.\nUnderstanding your market is critical for success. Who are your competitors? Who poses the biggest threat? What are their strengths and weaknesses? What can you learn from them? Questions that can all be answered with an objective competitor analysis.\nAre there additional growth opportunities in your market? Who buys your product and who doesn’t? How do non-customers differ from existing customers? What do they know about your product/services and brand? Why are they loyal to certain brands and not others? How do you stack up?\nUnderstanding the perceptions of key internal and external stakeholders is important in any business. With a stakeholder review, we can give your key stakeholders a say and provide them with an anonymous forum to voice and address the internal issues facing your business.\nProduct and concept testing allows you to cost-effectively vet potential offerings before undertaking costly production or developing go-to-market strategies. Identify leading candidates, estimate the size and value of the growth opportunity, and highlight product or messaging weaknesses at the very outset.\nSometimes research is part of a broader communications strategy where part of the value of the information gathered is in passing it along to select external audiences. We publish the results of numerous surveys for a variety of clients every year.\nINSIGHT without strategy goes nowhere, and a brand without strategy struggles to go anywhere.\nexisting products, and new products for existing opportunities.\nBuilding on deeper consumer insights, our strategic tools are that much sharper. We’ve helped clients turn ideas into entire organizations and helped refocus entire organizations into multiple, market-centric brands.\nObjectivity is one of the key elements of our external review process. We have the advantage of having no vested interest in the outcome of these assignments. Our experienced team guide you and your team through a highly interactive exercise designed to maximize marketing ROI.\nBrand Strategy is at the very heart of what we do. Clearly enunciating who you are is a critical element in building brands that stand the test of time (not to mention the competition).\nOnce you've identified where your brand is going, we can draw a map that gets you there successfully. Developing metrics based on a clear understanding of your market comes next. Helping you through the logistics associated with execution is what sets us apart.\nWhere does your brand live? Is it a place that you can defend? Who are your neighbours? Is your understanding of your positioning consistent with the perceptions of your internal and external stakeholders? Do you aspire to live somewhere else? Why? Is this aspirational positioning realistic? How?\nHow does your corporate brand relate to your product brands? How do your individual product brands relate to each other? What is the common DNA? How is it woven into the respective brands? Have your product brands grown or morphed to where they may require rebranding?\nYou know you have a viable product. Now you need to develop a plan that ensures a successful launch. From messaging to logistics, this is the step that sets you in motion.\nWe are brand strategists, not a creative house or advertising agency.\nFirst and foremost, our job is developing a brand platform that both guides and inspires the creative process. This foundation is provided by a clearly defined brand strategy. This same brand platform should also serve as an ultimate filter ensuring consistent, on-point execution.\nWe work directly with many clients, some of whom have been with us for over thirty years. We also collaborate with some of the largest and most respected advertising agencies and creative houses in North America.\nOur agency partners engage us to provide insight and strategic direction. These are firms that aren't satisfied with ticking boxes and delivering the 'same old, same old.' They are passionate about delivering the very best results possible for their clients, and they want to understand the audience better so the messaging they create is on-target every time.\nWhether we work directly with clients, or partner with creative specialists, the objective is always the same—to deliver the very best outcomes.\nWe believe that execution is the place where strategies can live and die.\nWe work with our strategic partners to ensure that clients achieve their strategic goals by working collaboratively with them to translate insight into action.\nKnowing is good. Knowing what you need to know is even better.\nIf you aren't distinguishable from the competition, your sustainability is tenuous at best.\nThe proof is always in the pudding. Understanding key success factors and how to measure them is critical.\n© 2017 concerto marketing group | All Rights Reserved.

Answer one of the following questions in your own words.\nconnecting California to the rest of the union. However, three main events led to its construction.

“I met Joanne and the people from ThinkInternational 6 years ago, when they went to Brazil to interview for job positions at the New York Stock Exchange.\n“I’ve been part of the Think International family as a client and a candidate since 1992. There is no one in this business more genuine and trustworthy than Joanne Diehl and Mike Starr and the rest of the Think International family.\nThe talent that Joanne and Mike provide has always been exemplary. They continue to be the primary vendor of choice when I have an opening to fill. We have recruited overseas in Europe and Brazil with amazing success. In one weekend, we were able to interview, prioritize and select from over 100 people; many of whom I continue to work with and consider my close friends. In addition, Joanne and Mike are in constant communication with their staff and the client to insure the match continues to be beneficial for both the employer and the employee. Joanne possesses a sixth sense that enables her to identify talent and resolve issues long before they even have to be raised with the client.\n“ThinkInternational LLC is NOT your typical recruitment consultancy – when you become a member of the Think family, you will not be treated as a revenue generating robot (like other agencies), more importantly, you will be treated as a valued member of the Think family and you will never forget it.\nThinkInternational LLC is operated by a team of the most experienced, knowledgeable and helpful professionals in the industry. At Think, you are treated equally with the feeling that you are #1.\nFrom the moment you join the Think team, you will feel like you have begun a journey that you will never look back on. From the day to day running of the consultancy, the opportunities offered, the flexibility and the generosity of the team, we believe that you cannot find this experience anywhere else.\nIt is inevitable that with any business there will be questions, queries, and issues to resolve. The Think team looks at your issues as their own and does the utmost to answer and resolve any questions or issues in a prompt and professional manner. The Think team strives to ensure that there is no undue stress and confusion to the Think family member.\nWe have been proud members of the Think family for more than 6 years and could not be happier. Sure, we have been offered opportunities elsewhere, but once you experience the warm and personal treatment with that professional touch you won’t want to leave Think for anywhere else – we certainly look at Think as our family away from home.

In addition to this top, I also purchased the Nolita print dress (which I haven't yet worn) and pumps along with some other pieces that I returned. Although they looked so divine and appealing, I had to pass on the other Floral Crush pieces because I was too leery of sizing or too turned off by pricing.\nHowever, because the pieces I got screamed spring/summer, I put them away until the weather was more agreeable. I mean, there's nothing like wearing a brightly splashed white floral shirt when it's 35 degrees and threatening to flurry in late April, right? So now I finally got the chance to pull them out for some fun in the sun.\nI have to say this tee is hands down, no question one of my fav purchases thus far. You all may not be surprised to know that I wish I would've purchased two. And I'm not ashamed to say, yes, indeed, I'm on the hunt for another Floral Crush tee (size medium if you have one you're willing to part ways with!), preferably not one of those marked up ones being hawked on eBay.\nBesides it being just the prettiest little thing, I also got a lot of compliments from random strangers and the quality of the shirt is a really good weight and it just fits good, y'know?\nSince there was a bit of a color explosion going on from the waist up, I kept the accessories simple with gold hoops and a neutral toned shoe. The bag was a coincidental compliment to the color scheme. I might as well just be frank and admit to y'all, although my second love is handbags (with shoes being first), which I have a nice collection of and I'm always looking to add to....I'm honestly kind of a lazy handbag girl. I get a staple bag with all my crap in it and somehow I seem to make it work practically every day. I do switch up depending upon my mood or destination, but sometimes the time is takes to switch things out is just the last thing on my list - so it tends to get bumped.\nYou may have also noticed my continuous, but gradual change in hair color over the last few weeks. And here I am blonde as can be, or at least intend to be, and I have to say I'm happy. Finally!\nI tend to be a risk taker when it comes to my tresses. I cut and color my own crown, with bi-weekly visits to the barber for edging maintenance. With that being said, I will admit that I got to this point by playing Russian roulette a few times with the hair dye and went to bed wondering if I would wake a up bald the next day.\nThis color is a little more care than I've been used to as of late, but I think I'll stay here a while.\nThat's all for today, beauties. Maybe we'll chat natural hair stuff another day. I'm jetting off to New York City in a week and I can't wait! My bestie, the food, the shopping, and the Jay-Z & Justin Timberlake concert! I'm forecasting an awesome getaway!\nBut in the meantime, I've got some packing to do....I hate packing.\nI plan to post some pics while enjoying my vacay so head on over and follow me on Instagram.

Merle Hastings, a heart attack patient, benefitted from Winneshiek Medical Center's relationship with Mayo Clinic Helath System.\nOnce at the Winneshiek Medical Center Emergency Department, the emergency team administered clot-busting medication to prevent any further damage to Merle’s heart. After the initial stabilization, the physician ordered an EKG to determine the cause of the pains.\n“The EKG came back clear – it did not show the readings of a heart attack. But the medical team was not satisfied and they admitted me for the night,” says Merle.\nThe cardiologists found a partial blockage, and prepared Merle for a procedure to place a stent in his artery to open up the blockage. Merle says, “After they put in the stent, I spent a short time in the recovery room, and then returned to my hospital room.” The next morning, Merle along with his wife and medical team, discussed his care. “Following a few final tests, my wife drove me home, and I had virtually no recovery period,” says Merle.

Author Notes: Making soy-free miso paste at home is embarrassingly easy, especially now that we can now use the internet to order pre-cultured koji rice. As this is a sweet miso, it only takes a month to ferment at room temperature (opposed to red miso that requires minimum one year). This live culture food is wonderful in dips, stir fry sauce, glazes, and yes, even miso soup.\nYou'll need a gallon vat to ferment the miso in. This can be made from anything non-reactive (I use the pottery liner from a busted slow cooker). Pottery, glass, or even plastic makes a great vat, however, metal can react with the salt and fermentation in the miso to impart bad flavours or damage your container.\nMake certain all your tools are very clean, either by pouring boiling water over them, or rubbing them with sake or vodka. Miso is very susceptible to outside influences at the early stage of fermentation, so if you have any other fermented foods on the go, like sourdough starter, or sauerkraut vat, then take extra care with this cleaning stage. Please do not use antibacterial anything as this will kill the beautiful invisible beasties that we rely on to make miso delicious.\nSort through and give the chickpeas a good wash in cool water, removing anything that isn't a chickpea. Soak chickpeas overnight in plenty of water.\nRemove the chickpeas from the cooking liquid, keeping the cooking liquid to one side for later. When it's cool enough to handle; using the method of your choice, mash approximately one third of the chickpeas. I use to take one third of the chickpeas and put them in the blitzer, then return them to their friends, but now I use the back of a wooden spoon to mash the beans against the side of a bowl until roughly one third look mashed up.\nLeave the chickpeas to one side to cool (you can stir them occasionally to speed up cooling). When they are cool enough to handle (less than 120 degrees F) then mix the chickpeas, koji rice and salt together. Add small amounts of cooking liquid into the mix until everything has the consistency of soggy playdough.\nCover the top of the miso with plastic wrap, or the more traditional method of kombu seaweed that has been soaking in water for about half an hour. Find a plate or inner lid that is just a little bit smaller than the inside of your vat (about 1/4 inch is best, but miso is forgiving if it's a bit smaller). Place this inner lid on top of the miso and weigh it down with a cleaned stone, jug of water, or other food-safe weight. My rock weighs about 5 pounds, but again, miso is forgiving if you want a heavier or lighter weight. Cover the whole thing with a clean cotton or linen cloth to prevent dust and flies getting in.\nTuck your miso vat away somewhere where it can stay at room temperature (roughly 68 to 72 degrees F is ideal, but it can easily tolerate hotter or colder temperatures). Leave it alone for at least three weeks, preferably a month, and up to six weeks. Check on it every few days if you like. After a few days, there should be a layer of liquid on top, if not, add some boiled and cooled water so it only just covers the top of the paste.\nOnce the liquid is removed from the top and the mold is scraped from the surface mix up all the remaining miso paste together. It should be quite lumpy. If you want a smooth miso paste, puree it at this stage, but personally I take great joy in the traditional texture of chunky homemade miso. Besides, I can always pure a tiny bit if a recipe demands a smooth paste.\nPlace the miso in clean jars (or other non-reactive containers) being careful to avoid air pockets. This should keep in the fridge for about a year.\nThe liquid from the top of the vat is Tamari - a very potent sauce, something like soy sauce (only without soy because we used chickpeas!). Strain the tamari through a clean (I boil mine), tightly woven cloth to remove any spare bits of mold. Label and and use as you would soy sauce (only use less as it's super-potent).\nWill I need to change the fermentation time if I half or quarter this recipe?\nHi - I've just found this recipe. I made a batch of sweet miso (using yellow eyed beans) three weeks ago, but I think I may have added too much water. In your experience, what, if any, are the negative impacts of using too much water and do you think it can be remedied? Thanks very much!\nMy Yia Yia cooked that way and I still kick myself for not watching and writing things down. For a Greek, she made the best tacos and meat sauce ever. She always used a ton of butter when she cooked. She grabbed butter more often than olive oil.\nLatch lid would not mind sharing one little bit. The problem is that he has no recipe. he cooks by touching, feeling andsmelling. Literally. He's blind. My friend Nan told him I want to be there with my scale. She said he only quivered a little.\nWhat a fantastic opportunity! Please share everything you learn.\nNow a days we are all about weights and measures in cooking, but from what I can gather, traditional recipes are much more, do this until you feel that. I think your friend must be much truer to history than we could ever be. My favourite recipes in historical texts are simply a list of (unmeasured) ingredients with some vague idea as to cooking method. It leaves so much room for learning and experimenting. People had to know so much more before mas literacy and the rise of the cookbook.\nLol on fermenting police. I often get the stink eye from the food police, so I keep my rogue habits to myself.\nThe latch the lid guy is a friend of a friend. He's just an old hippy who has made miso for years. After I get this quick miso under my belt, I'll give his "wait 6 months to a year" version a try.\nYour photo makes miso something I could sit down to and eat for dinner. It's too salty for that right? Confession. I dip a spoon into my chickpea miso several times a day.\nThe fermenting police and I have a long history. I'm of the opinion that so long as certain safety concerns are met, I can feel free to try fermenting things any which way I like, then stick with the method that gives the best results... others disagree.\nI would love to have latch lid's recipe if you ever get it. Maybe PM me if he says it's okay to share.\nThe miso this recipe made isn't as salty as commercial chickpea miso because the fermentation time is so much shorter. I sometimes put a spoonful on top of a bowl of rice, then mix it in. But I'm with you, there's nothing wrong with chickpea miso right from the jar.\nClarify - I only share the recipes that work. My free form fermenting is just how I find my way to the good recipes. Record keeping plays a huge part in my process.\nI am wondering if I can use my Diamond kosher salt. I found sea salt at my Asian store. It comes in flakes, little rocks and fine ground. Does it matter which one? I'd rather use my kosher salt, but let me know. I definitely don't want to use my expensive French sea salt.\nH Mart doesn't have koji rice, but I will order it from South River.\nI am going to use my 1.5 liter glass jar with a flip lid and rubber gasket. There is a local guy here who uses them, so not worried about that.\nAlso, I have been sprouting all of my beans. Can I sprout my chickpeas before cooking them for miso?\nCan you make miso from lentils?\nLast but not least...it's cold here in Oregon. I am stingy with heat. It's probably 55-60° in my apt. Will this even work? I have a small bathroom attached to my bedroom. I could heat it. I also have a heating pad that I use for sprouting my beans, but those are in a wide strainer. I don't think it would work with a tall jar.\nExcited you're on your way to miso making. Good questions. I'll do my best but let me know if I miss something.\nYes, kosher salt works great. Traditionally in Japan, they use sea salt, but I've used kosher without any noticeable difference. The important thing with the salt is that it has No iodine. Also, because salt is so different, it's best to weigh the salt instead of measuring it by volume.\nMmmm, South River Miso. I have such envy, I hear their koji rice is as good as their miso - yummy.\nAlthough you can use the flip top jars for miso fermenting, it's not the ideal situation. Miso being primarily mold and yeast ferment (with some bacterial action), likes to breath. Unlike Sauerkraut and other lacto-fermented veg which like a good deal less air access. If you can, try an open vat (a container with a clean cotton or linen cloth over it) instead of something with a lid. Or leaving the lid open and covering the opening with a cloth.\nI'm actually fermenting some extra miso paste in a lidded container right now, I'm not happy with how it's developing - much faster to mold over, and not the colour mold I like to see. Whereas the open vat one looks and smells happy as... well... happy as miso.\nSprouted bean miso is getting more popular. I haven't tried it myself, but in my reading, they spout the bean then cook it, or sprout, dry it, cook it. I think they do it more for taste than any added digestibility, since the koji breaks down any difficult to digest parts of the bean. If you do go this path, please let me know how it goes. You may need to keep good track of your original dry bean starting weight to get the ratio right between bean and koji.\nMiso from lentils? Of course! That's my plan for new years day to make two vats of lentil miso. One will be quick ferment, and the other a year long vat - so I can start a tradition of making miso and opening up last years Special New Years miso every new years day from now until I run out of new years. Actually, I've been toying with the idea of sprouting some lentils for it too. A local farm specializes in lentils and it would be a great excuse to buy their 25 kilo bag. Now what to do with the other 20 kilos of lentils?\nLentils would need to be cooked differently, maybe some experimenting with soaking (the literature is of different opinions as to whether the ferment begins with the soaking of the beans, or the adding of the koji), but it should be the same ratio of koji grain, salt, dry beans. I think different kinds of lentils would give different flavours, I know some lentils taste quite bitter to me, so maybe not those ones (small green, spotty or was that just me?). If you get there before me, let me know how it goes.\nColder temp will work fine. Remember miso is a peasant food as well as something for the Shogun to dine on. Not everyone could afford to keep their homes toasty warm year round. The long term (one year or longer) start their life very close to freezing temp then warms up as the summer approaches.\nFor sweet miso, with a colder temp, the miso will take longer to ferment. You could measure try reducing the salt by 10 percent to speed things up (I haven't tried it, so I'm not confident but in theory it should work) or increasing the koji rice up to double (so 1 part bean, two parts koji rice) or maybe 1.25x. But at 55 to 60 F I would probably wait for 6 weeks before digging into the miso. Possibly up to 8 weeks.\nWith the miso vat, it's best if you can keep the temperature consistent-ish throughout the vat, changing the temp slowly - or at least that's what all the literature says. On the other hand, I don't take that sort of care with mine. It gets to be whatever temperature I want the house to be. If we have guests, it gets hot, no guests, it stays cool. I won't get as consistent results as someone with consistent temperature control, but I know it will always be yummy. I change the time for when I open the miso vat depending on what the average temperature has been like in the house.\nWhen you say yum on the koji rice..do you eat it like rice or just use it for making miso. The one from South River is brown rice koji.\nThe local guy clamps his shut, but he ferments his for 6 months.I'm going to leave the lid off like I do when I make Kombucha mother SCOBYs. I will try the latch method another time.\nIf I get a larger amount of koji rice, does it store indefinitely? I am picturing wet rice covered in spores which I'm sure is incorrect.\nI have pink local lentils. I'll try using them another time and this first time, I won't sprout the chickpeas.\nNo, I don't actually eat the koji rice, but I hear that the things made from their koji are delicious.\nYou can of course clamp the miso shut if you like. There are some good reasons to do so in the commercial setting; however, in a traditional, farmhouse setting, it would have been done 'open vat' style. My personal experience has been that open vats make a tastier miso with very little problems. But of course, that's just me and my preference. If you do try the closed lid style in the future, please keep me up to date with how it turns out.\nKoji rice is actually quite dry as the rice is steamed cooked instead of boiled, then often dried further for longer storage (ie shipping). You'll have to ask South River how they recommend storing it, but in general it has a limited shelf life. In the freezer it (officially) keeps for one year (However, I'm useing two year old stuff right now with no problems but don't tell anyone, I might get in trouble from the fermenting police.).

Vetements, which comprises of Demna Gvasalia, his brother Guram, and five of their most unique and creative friends, was only created 2 years ago and is making major waves in the industry. The whole philosophy of Vetements is to make garments that bring an attitude of coolness and individuality. With that being said, you can take a walk down Soho or even a scroll down your Instagram feed, and spot at least 2 Vetements pieces being sported. The concept of gender-bending is also making a statement since Vetements originally was created for women.\nFor Fall 2015 Ready-to-Wear, Vetements showcased a massive bomber. On the right is DKNY Fall 2016 Ready-to-Wear, which features a similar look.\nSpring 2016 Ready-to-Wear was a great season for Vetements. These sky high loose boots, walked the runway mimicking pants, and now a similar take is being seen for Opening Ceremony's Fall 2016 Ready-to-Wear.\nAnother look from Vetements Spring 2016 Ready-to-Wear is the Coming Soon hoodie, with super long sleeves, which Demna is known for. This look from Marques Almeida Fall 2016 Ready-to-Wear, is a perfect example of Demna's impact this season.\nFor Spring 2015 Ready-to-Wear Vetements sent baggy denim down the runway. This is sort of unusual to see an everyday item we all wear being modeled during fashion week. This casual item is steadily becoming more normal, and seen in Opening Ceremony's Spring 2016 Ready-to-Wear collection.\nLettering on clothing is not a new trend but, this gothic font that was seen for Vetements Spring 2016 Ready-to-Wear was also seen again at the Fenty x Puma Fall 2016 Ready-to-Wear show. The Fenty x Puma show also showcased a lot of garments that were similar to Vetements aesthetic.\nWith all the social media posts and celebrity marketing, it was apprent that we would see variations of Vetements on the runway. Clearly they have been at the top of quite a few inspirations boards for this season.\nFinal Verdict: Designers need to hop off his wave.

Three protesters have been killed in front of the US embassy in the Sudanese capital of Khartoum after being run over by police vehicles, according to Al Jazeera.\nMore than 5,000 demonstrators have gathered in front of the embassy, setting fires on a square nearby. Many of the demonstrators were bussed to the location from the UK and German embassies, according to Reuters.\nUS Military officials said on Friday that the US would be sending Marines to Sudan to defend its facilities there.\nA spokesperson for the US embassy says all protesters were expelled from inside the compound.\nLocal witnesses reported on Twitter that a mob of an estimated ten to 15 thousand people were torching the building.\nGunfire was heard outside the building, according to a reporter for Reuters.\nMany say the attack shouldn't have come as a surprise to Washington.\n“Arab nations have been building up a strong sentiment against the US for some time, viewing it as an anti-Islamic country – particularly because of the wars it fights inside Islamic nations,” investigative journalist Gareth Porter told RT.\n"This should be a wake-up call – a red light flashing – for the national security elite in the US. They need to take a deep breath and have a rethink about the broad policy they’ve been following with regards to national security," Porter said.\nIt comes after police fired tear gas on demonstrators after they stormed the German embassy, pulling down its emblem and raising an Islamic flag in its place.\nThe German Foreign Minister has confirmed the attack, and says the building was set on fire.\n"Germany is not yet up to facing this kind of attack. Similar attacks usually hurt US, British or French embassies, because of their involvement in recent NATO adventures, but Germany is new to the club – so that means our embassy security system is not yet up to our foreign policy," Christoph Horstel, who heads a government and business consulting firm, told RT.\nProtesters also set nearby cars and trash cans on fire as police fired tear gas, according to AP.\nDemonstrators smashed windows of the building and started a fire in front of the main gate, a witness told Reuters.\nThe German Foreign Minister says the embassy was vacated before the protest began, and that all employees are safe.\nThe British Foreign Office has confirmed ongoing demonstrations outside the UK embassy in Khartoum. Sudanese police are currently at the scene.

Almost all these concerns revolved around Dow’s CEO Andrew Liveris, and whether Dow may have misled shareholders and U.S. regulators about projects or expenses linked to him.\nSerious concerns revolving around the improper spending of Liveris first surface late last year in a lawsuit filed by Kimberly Wood, a former fraud investigator for the company, and these allegations seem to rum much deeper.

Paul Maskey MP has called on the support of progressives in Britain and throughout Europe to respect the right of the north of Ireland to remain in the EU.\nSpeaking at the Momentum conference 'The World Transformed', the West Belfast MP called for unity among progressives to stand up for citizens' rights and the peace process in Ireland.\n“In the Brexit referendum, the majority of the people of the north or Ireland (56%) voted to remain in the EU. Despite being critical of many aspects of the EU, Sinn Féin campaigned to remain.\n“Brexit will be a disaster for Ireland, socially and economically. The obsessive attacks on EU rights protections from the British government threaten to undermine safeguards for workers, human rights, the environment and the Good Friday Agreement.\n"Imposing an external EU frontier across the island of Ireland would not only be immensely damaging, it would also be impossible to create and maintain.\n"The British are walking away from the EU. That is their democratic right.\n"But it is equally the right of the people of the north of Ireland to remain in the EU.\n"And we are looking for support from progressives across Britain and Europe to respect the vote to remain, citizens’ rights in Ireland and the peace process.

Be alerted when Jimi Hendrix - Band Of Gypsys (180g Vinyl LP) is back in stock.\nA notification will be sent to when the Jimi Hendrix - Band Of Gypsys (180g Vinyl LP) is back in stock.\nAudiophile Vinyl Pressing of 1969 Jimi Hendrix New Year's Eve Concert at Fillmore East: Thrilling Live Set Includes Seminal Version of "Machine Gun"\nFollowing the breakup of the Experience, Jimi Hendrix took a sabbatical in Woodstock, New York, hooked up with bassist Billy Cox and began jamming with a wide variety of musicians, including R&B drummer Buddy Miles. He had become self-conscious about his image as a showman and rocker and about the limitations of thrashing through the same repertoire night after night. With Cox and Miles, this new trio, Band Of Gypsys, was Hendrix's attempt to redefine himself, and in a way heralded his return to the ethos of the blues and R&B, a return assisted by a powerhouse, groove-oriented rhythm section. Band Of Gypsys was certainly different from Hendrix's work with the Experience, but rivals it in terms of scope, vision and beauty.

As with every story, you should probably start with a character who wants something, but can’t have it…yet. The obstacle to their dreams doesn’t have to be weather-related, but everything else about the environment should be soaked in it.\nYou could write about an alpine community, snowed in for the winter. Or you could write about a bush community in high summer in Australia, coping with the kind of heat that has weather reporters searching the Pantone index for new colors.\nThink about how language reflects reality, especially in static communities. If you’re from a seaside town, your metaphors tend to include fish and gales, and you use onomatopoeic words like ‘blustery’. What will your local residents sound like?\nConsider having an outsider come in to the community either as your protagonist or their foil, to act as the reader’s avatar as we meet this new community.\nThis is a short story, and if you’re going to Write On Wednesday, its probably going to be a short-short story, so limit your cast. One or two people, one or two settings.\nWhat important moment will act as the fulcrum in your story, the thing everything turns on?\nWhat will change? Or not change?

In its latest report on Canada, the United Nations Human Rights Committee raises concerns on a wide range of issues, including missing and murdered aboriginal women, Bill C-51, and immigration detention measures for asylum seekers.\nThe seven-page report, titled "Concluding observations on the sixth periodic report of Canada," was released by the UN committee on Thursday. The document is meant to act as a sort of report card on how Canada is fulfilling its obligations under the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.\nThe report looks at 13 different human rights issues including gender equality, indigenous rights, prison conditions, and how Canadian businesses operate abroad.\nThe report raises concerns that indigenous women and girls are "disproportionately" affected by violence, homicides, and disappearances. "Notably, the Committee is concerned about the State party's reported failure to provide adequate and effective responses to this issue across the territory of the State party."\nWhile noting the federal government’s need to adopt measures to fight terrorism, the report criticized Bill C-51 for giving "a broad mandate and powers" to CSIS, that could lead to "mass surveillance" and "targeting activities" without legal safeguards.\nThe report also said the anti-terror law leads to "increased sharing of information among federal agencies, on the basis of a very broad definition of activities that undermine the security of Canada." This "does not fully ensure that inaccurate or irrelevant information is shared," it added.\nThe report raises issues with Canada's procedures for detaining migrants and asylum-seekers who enter the country "irregularly."\nIn particular, it raised concerns that migrants and asylum-seekers who are designated as an "irregular arrival," may be detained for an unlimited period of time.\nIt also raised concerns over how these migrants and asylum-seekers would be subject to mandatory detention, and would not enjoy the same rights as those who arrive "regularly."\nThe report also took issue with 2012 funding cuts, which resulted in "irregular migrants losing access to essential health care services."\nThe report notes the "persisting inequalities between women and men," taking particular issue with the pay gap that, "disproportionately affects low-income women, in particular minority and indigenous women."\nIt noted that legislation relating to equal pay varies across different levels of government, and in the public and private sectors. The report also noted the underrepresentation of women in leadership positions in both the public and private sectors.

Though not now affiliated with any group for 2011, I will continue to post from time to time. I hope a few of you will continue to stop by and share your thoughts. Today, I took this photo of Cody in the window. I took the shot by taking the reflection in the bathroom mirror. Only natural light was used and only levels processing in Photoshop Elements 6. Hope you all have had a great start to 2011!\nCamera settings: Fujifilm FinePix S700, F/3.5, 1/120 sec., ISO 64, focal length 13.2 mm. No flash.\nTiny droplet on an apple in my backyard. Photo was cropped tight, processed in Photoshop Elements with adjusted levels, high pass filter and Topaz DeNoise. I used the rectangular marquee and radial blur for the frame. Hardest part of this was waiting for the tree to stop dripping so I could get a shot!!\nCamera settings: Canon T1i, F/5, 1/400 sec., ISO 800, focal length 100 mm. No flash.\nTiny ripples run across the top of this quiet stream. Processed in Photoshop Elements by burning a layer and then multiplying that layer over the original.

Whether you have a small room that needs to serve double duty or an oversized space that is a catchall for activities, creating a multipurpose room that effortlessly accommodates a variety of tasks can be challenging … but we think it’s a welcome challenge.\n1. Measure first. The first step is to measure the dimensions of the space and create a room plan. For a room that is multipurpose, this is a vital step. Be sure to note where windows, doors, fireplaces and nooks exist so you can make the most of your design. Art Van Furniture offers a free online tool that will help you get a bird’s eye view of your space. Click here to get started.\n2. Understand your scale. Now that you know the size of your room, you can make decisions about the scale of furnishings you will need. If you are designing a guest room/home office, forego the queen size bed and consider a daybed or futon that will double as seating. A sleeper sofa is another option. You’ll want to match the scale of your desk to the scale of the bed, so one doesn’t overpower the other. For example, if you choose a sleek futon, consider a writing desk in a similar size and style.\n3. Choose your palette. When creating a multipurpose room, choose furnishings and accessories in a similar palette and finish. You want the room to look put together not “hodge podge.” Things don’t have to perfectly match, but the style of the room should have an overarching feel. For help, be sure to check out our blog posts on Pantone’s Home Design Color Collections. You’ll also want to avoid too many busy patterns; instead, choose patterns work well together, such as florals or geometrics and stripes. For smaller rooms, consider neutral colors on the wall, fabrics, drapes and upholstery that will give the room a more spacious feel.\n4. Define areas. For large spaces that share tasks, create the feeling of two rooms by using furnishings that define areas. Bookshelf dividers can create two rooms from one. You can use the back of a sofa as a divider. Or simply use a rug to mark off areas. In a smaller room, create a similar feeling by using floor screens that give the feeling of a floating wall and hide private spaces.\n5. Think about the lighting. Multipurpose rooms need a mixture of lighting types to serve the different tasks that take place there. Use a combination of overhead, table, task and wall lighting in your room. Task lamps are great for reading and writing letters. Table lamps and wall sconces on dimmers can help with lighting during bed times.\n6. Consider your storage needs. Finally, if you’re combining a guest bedroom with a home office, the room will have two different storage needs – a place for guests to put their belongings and a place for you to keep your supplies. If you have a large enough closet, you will be able to divide it into two useful areas. You might also want to consider a desk with a hutch that closes so you can keep paperwork tucked away when guests are in town. Or look for multipurpose pieces, such as a decorative file cabinet that can serve as a nightstand. Too much clutter will make your multipurpose room look busy, so be sure to plan for storage needs.
