We’re all used to lectures from our dentists. We know that flossing every single day is an absolute must. We know that if we don’t maintain regular six month cleanings, bad things will happen. Dentists like Dr. Kami Hoss and others give advice like this every day of the week.

But what you might not know is how much your dentist wants to help educate their patients in order to keep them healthy and happy. Here are some of the most common pitfalls according to dentists and how to avoid them. This is for the patients who want to listen, learn and do things right!

1) Flossing Really is Critical

It’s right up there with brushing. You do not want to go a single night without flossing your teeth under any circumstances. Many people think it is an exercise in futility, but this couldn’t be further from the truth.

Not only does it remove food particles and plaque from between your teeth, which no toothbrush will ever be able to do, but it also provides a healthy environment for the gums.

If not cared for in its early stages, gum disease can develop into something much more dangerous and expensive over time. It’s vital that you floss your teeth at least once each night before going to sleep.

2) You Need to Use Mouthwash

This one is controversial. It’s not necessary for everyone, but if your body chemistry allows it to work, you may want to consider using mouthwash every day after brushing and flossing.

It kills germs in the mouth leftover from food particles that you couldn’t remove during brushing or flossing.

If you can use it, it’s good to do so. It will leave your mouth feeling much fresher and cleaner than if you didn’t.

3) Be Careful With Acidic Foods and Drinks

Acidic foods like citrus fruits are great; they taste wonderful and provide a lot of necessary vitamins in our diets. But they are acidic. When you eat or drink something highly acidic, it can start to dissolve the outer layer of your teeth. This is called erosion.

Erosion only happens over time; one orange juice won’t do too much damage at once but think about how many oranges that might be over the course of a week. Most dentists recommend that you avoid highly acidic foods if at all possible. This might not be an option for everyone, but you should monitor how much of these types of food you are eating and see if it’s having a negative effect on your teeth.

4) Diet Is Critical

Diet can have a huge impact on your dental health, but you can’t use any old diet to get this effect. Most people need to watch their sugar intake, and this includes candy and other assorted sweets. But it also means processed foods like soft drinks and anything that is high in carbohydrates.

Carbs convert into sugar when they are digested by the body, so if you eat a loaf of bread, that’s the same as eating a spoonful of sugar.

Sugar is highly destructive to teeth. It causes decay and cavities, it causes gum disease, and over time it can even cause bone loss around your teeth. You need to watch what you eat carefully if you don’t want your teeth to suffer for it!

Modern jazz? What is it exactly? I never know how to define the genre. Thankfully, Jakim Pearson knows what he’s doing. His creativity on this album will make you think of artists like Jacob Collier and Snarky Puppy. But Jakim does it with electronic sounds only, using his keyboard as both drum and bass, and even his vocoder as a saxophone.

The album starts with “Clockwork.” A jazzy ballad that immediately shows you that you’re in for the unexpected. The opening track also has one of my favorite lyrics on this album:

“Why can’t we see through time? I guess because everything is in a circle.”

Jakim slowly builds melodies with his “mandolin” (a term I use loosely here because it’s a keyboard) while layering and mixing that bass and snare on top. It feels like this track never ends. The intro just grows and grows until it finally stops for the sake of transitioning into the next track.

“Time Lockers” is where it becomes clear that Jakim is not trying to mimic artists like Jacob Collier (though I think he’s better than him). Instead, he has his style, using some non-traditional melodies on top of pretty complex chord changes. There are some strong disco vibes on this song, with an almost Daft Punk-like beat. The use of the vocoder makes me think that he listened to Shai or Michael Jackson.

“To Borrow Time” is a “jazzy” jazz tune with fantastic piano work and melodies. This track takes its time to develop, but I’m fine with it because it’s just so pleasant to listen to. The chords have a lot of dissonances, but the melody is very tonal and “modern” sounding. Halfway through, a saxophone even comes in to accompany the piano. It ends with a long jam session from Jakim, who is clearly at home on the keyboard.

This song is so good I’m going to listen again.

“He Who Wants To Live Forever” starts with a groovy bassline, once again making me think of Daft Punk. The chords on the piano are simple but very effective in their simplicity while still having some unexpected turns. This song has more of a groove, and a few more elements come in as the song continues. The bass even becomes a lead!

“A Matter of Time” is my favorite track on this album. It’s funky and jazzy yet feels modern at the same time. I’m not sure how Jakim does it, but he seems to have found some sonic sweet spot in this track. The chord changes are complex, but the melody feels simple and lighthearted. The vocoder comes back for one more appearance here, playing an almost doo-wop melody that goes very well with the style of this song.

“North by North West” is a hauntingly beautiful ballad, which acts as a sort of album-prequel to “To Borrow Time.” The chords themselves are the same, and the structure is the same. It’s a great way to end this short but sweet album. Jakim’s music has that ability to make me feel emotions I’m not used to feeling from instrumental songs. Seriously, he can tap into feelings that I don’t even have a word for.

In conclusion, Jakim Pearson has made a great modern jazz album that goes beyond anything he’s done before using electronic instruments to make complex chord progressions and melodies. He seems to be constantly exploring new ways to make the music he wants to hear, which is refreshing in this day-and-age musical stagnation.

 

Dr. Joon Faii Ong is one of the world’s foremost authorities on essential tremors. He has published more than 100 scientific papers in journals around the world and is well known for his contributions to understanding what causes tremor, how it can be treated, and its impact on quality of life.

In this article, Dr. Ong discusses how tremors affect the quality of life in Parkinson’s patients.

Parkinson’s Disease is a “non,” “familial,” or “sporadic” degenerative disorder of the central nervous system.

It results from a deficiency or loss of nerve cells that produce the neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) in areas of the brain such as the Substantia Nigra. The presence of Lewy bodies and cytoplasmic inclusion in neurons and glial cells is pathognomonic for this disorder.

Parkinson’s manifests itself in four main ways: tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia, and postural instability.

Parkinson’s is a progressive disorder. It begins with a very subtle tremor, which the patient or others around them may not even notice. As the disease progresses, rigidity and bradykinesia become more dominant, coupled with postural instability that often makes patients fall without warning. Eventually, the induced loss of DA leads to depression and dementia.

How Tremors Affect Quality of Life in Parkinson’s Patients

Tremor is the most common motor symptom that occurs in Parkinson’s patients. It can occur at rest or during voluntary movement, but it does not equally affect all Parkinson’s patients. In addition, the severity of tremor in a Parkinson’s patient can vary from barely noticeable to disabling.

An Essential Tremor (ET) is a type of tremor that occurs when one or more body parts move and shake involuntarily and uncontrollably. ET has many different characteristics and degrees (severity). Some individuals exhibit Parkinsonian symptoms such as stiffness, bradykinesia, and a resting tremor.

In Parkinson’s, ET usually develops as the disease progresses. In contrast to Parkinsonian tremor, which occurs at rest and is temporarily relieved by movement, essential tremor persists during movement or maintenance of a posture. The tremors associated with ET can be quite disabling for those who have trouble speaking, walking, eating, and writing.

In Parkinson’s patients with ET, the tremors can cause significant stress on a person’s quality of life. In fact, in one study of Parkinsonian patients with tremors at rest, those who had ET experienced more severe disability scores than those who did not have tremors at rest.

One of the goals of Parkinson’s medication is to reduce tremors. Parkinson’s medications either block the dopamine receptors to increase the amount of dopamine available in the brain or make it more difficult for neurons to release dopamine by other mechanisms. In other words, Parkinson’s medications “replace” the lost neurotransmitter.

In Parkinson’s patients with ET, there are many Parkinson’s medications that can help reduce tremors. However, Parkinson’s medications do not affect ET directly; rather, they act on the tremulous abnormal oscillatory discharge patterns in the brain to exert their effects on movement and tremor. In addition, some Parkinson’s medications also improve rigidity, bradykinesia, and postural instability in some Parkinsonian patients with ET.

The Skills Needed for Success

According to a recent study by the Bay Area Council Economic Institute, the demand for skilled workers in the Bay Area is rising almost three times as fast as new job creation. There are now more than 300,000 unfilled jobs throughout Silicon Valley, and finding highly trained people who can meet the demands of companies looking to grow has become a challenge.

The study identified six critical skills needed to fill the jobs in highly technical, highly paid occupations over the next ten years: Software development and programming; Systems Analysis and Administration; Networking and Telecom Professionals; Engineering Managers; Computer Hardware Engineers; Mathematicians, Statisticians.

NPU’s graduate programs are designed to help prepare the next generation of leaders with the knowledge and skills that are in high demand by employers. Graduates have achieved 100% job placement within six months of graduation.

– 100% placement rate during first six months for engineering graduates

– 95% placement rate during the first six months for business graduates According to one student, being part of NPU’s program is “the best experience I’ve had in my life. It’s all about learning by doing.”

 

WHAT IS RESIDENTIAL CARE?

Residential care refers to long-term care for people or children who live in a residential environment instead of their homes or families.

Along with Oakland Care, there are several choices for care homes in Eastbourne based on the individual’s needs. People with impairments, mental health issues, learning difficulties, Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, or those who have a fragile old age are commonly treated home with extra assistance from home care facilities through paid or voluntary carers, such as their family and friends.

RESIDENTIAL CARE SETTING:

Several older adults live in a residential care setting, generally in individual rooms, and on-site access care twenty-four hours daily. A facility of care homeclassified merely as a home for care typically offers personal support and care, such as assistance with washing, clothing, and drug treatment. Additional support may be provided, for example, to help eat food, to promote agile mobility, etc. Some nursing facilities are registered for a particular health need, such as dementia or terminal illness/end of life.

These are some examples (and by no means a complete list) of help for residential/personal care that might be requested or expected:

MORNING TIME SETTING:

• Assisting in waking up and getting ready for the day
• Showering or bathing
• Application of lotions and creams as necessary
• Hygiene oral (brushing teeth, denture care, etc.)
• Applying cosmetics and assisting with hairstyle
• Assistance with shaving
• Foot hygiene
• Dressing

DAY TIME:

• Help to ambulate about the house and its environs
• Toilet help, including with a cabinet or bedpan
• Assistance during meals when necessary
• Ensure people have the chance to connect socially with others (as per their wishes)
• Make sure residents are properly moisturized and use the required fluids

NIGHTTIME:

• Preparation for bed
• Reposition in bed to extend and avoid bed damage
• Change of continent pads and cleaning of intimate regions
• Change or maintain stoma or catheter bags or other healthcare procedure

Care homefacilities are community-based care settings for those who cannot live independently. Residential care arrangements licensed by countries with varied definitions include small-scale houses and big assisted living complexes, and most often have personal care.

HOW DOES RESIDENTIAL CARE SETTING WORKS:

Residents can remain in residential care facilities for long-term, short-term relief and emergencies. People struggling with everyday life because of their age, physical impairment, learning disabilities, mental health problems, addictions, or other medical needs have a residential home. A house can be accessible to persons with various care requirements or specialized, assisted by care assistants, in physical impairment or dementia situations. Depending on the stage at which they are located, persons with dementia can live in a residential environment as they may require care and aid in everyday activities, but they still do not need health care.

CHOOSING RESIDENTIAL CARE:

Choosing a long-term care facility may appear to be a difficult task. Still, by asking the right questions and keeping an eye out for specific qualities, the process can be more manageable and successful. Before choosing residential care for a person with dementia, it is important to understand the individual’s needs because there are many settings in which it may be provided.

Residential care setting selection may be a difficult task. Still, it can be more manageable by asking the right questions and looking for specific features in a long-term care facility. It is essential to understand the individual’s requirements before deciding where to place them in residential care, especially in light of the numerous possibilities available. Some of the key points should be remembered in your mind before choosing care homes,i.e.,

• Take some time to consider what you want.
• Consult with your friends and relatives.
• Make many phone calls to different senior care facilities.
• Pay a visit to the facilities.
• During your stay, feel free to ask questions.
• Return to the facility for a second time.
• Read your contract very carefully.

ADVANTAGES OF RESIDENTIAL CARE SETTING:

Some of the advantages which can avail from residential care, are given below:

• Social life can be improved by living in an elderly care facility. Activity programs are common in most residential aged care facilities. The list may go on and on. Social bus excursions to stores, theatres, and cafés are common.
• Private or communal suites and bathrooms are options for residential care. Beds, nightstands, armchairs, and amenities are all included in your care suite. Others, like a television, may be provided by some elderly care facilities. You may customize your space with photographs, artworks, and souvenirs, for example. A favorite chair or computer may be brought from home depending on the room’s size.

CONCLUSION:

It may appear simpler to stay in the comfort and familiarity of your own house, and moving to a residential care setting provides you and your loved ones a lengthy list of benefits.

A residential care environment is an intentional community that you may call home, where you can get professional and personalized care in a safe and supportive atmosphere. Sometimes called “old care homes” or “nursing homes,” it is suitable for those who cannot live independently at home or need 24/7 help.

While growing up gradually, kids are pushed into our complex world and looked forward to learning, developing, and fulfilling societal expectations. Navigating relationships, managing emotions, coping with academic stress, and fathoming their gender, identity, and striving with body image is simply the tip of the iceberg.

That’s why so many young adults gradually develop severe mental health problems like anxiety. Also, they have difficulty in learning and acquiring milestones in their schools. That’s why Canadian Accredited Independent Schools understand the importance of wellbeing for students’ mental growth and prioritize this first above anything!

So, what are the leading reasons that schools should prioritize a student’s wellbeing? Here’s why:

Boost educational outcomes

Students who are studying well have an amazing chance to get better job prospects after completing higher education and gain extreme life satisfaction.

According to meta-analysis, those schools with Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) programs observed an 11% improvement in academics. Therefore, the students who are healthy and happy tend to:

• Create and maintain good relationships with mentors and teachers
• Boost focus and motivation to concentrate on studies
• Not intimidated while solving issues

Emphasize wellbeing campuswide

Schools are the only places, which are responsible for students’ emotional health. As the therapists provide treatment, schools offer a precise focus on prevention. They should start a wellness outreach campaign to improve the student’s mental wellness and health.

With the help of such a campaign, teachers and mentors can successfully imprint a healthy lifestyle on students. Wellbeing can also be achieved by regular exercise with Montreal Weights equipment. It’s important to encourage students to do exercise daily.

Reduce problem behaviors

Once a kid reaches adolescence, they are compelled to cope with psychological and physical transformations and learn to navigate peer relationships. Moreover, adolescence is a crucial age of the beginning of various mental health problems like depression.

It’s safe to deduce that a low level of wellbeing emerges problem behavior. These translate to an anti-school attitude, which badly affects the classroom and leaves teachers helpless and vexed.

Schools should teach resilience and promote massive self-awareness to identify root causes. Also, they have to adopt a top-notch framework where wellbeing is taught as an elementary component.

Empower staff, advisors, and faculty with preventive measures

Using digital platforms helps students reach out to advisors at any time as technology makes them much more accessible. Therefore, it extends far from academic support to stress management, mental health, and overall wellbeing.

Schools have an enhanced opportunity to boost retention rates and give sufficient value by building digital-first experiences, making it hassle-free for students to stay on track.

Conclusion

In this new era of education, advancement starts from assessing student wellness to digital surveys; technology allows you to drive your schools forward. It’s not always necessary to be on top academic; rather, your teen might have a special fondness for hip-hop singing and dancing.

Schools must promote extracurricular activities to maintain their wellbeing. Therefore, they can check out exotic collections of jewelry from Stndrdz. Education is important, so do the extra activities, which help build wellness among students.

The Melbourne Cup is the most prestigious horse race in Australia and one of the biggest in the world, and the 24 horses which compete in it annually are among the best stayers on the planet. With all the acclaim which surrounds it, the millions of eyes which watch it and the subsequent broadcast and sponsorship revenue which it yields, it’s little surprise that the winners earn a fairly handsome cheque after passing the post. But exactly how much money is up for grabs from The Race That Stops a Nation?

What is the prize money for the Melbourne Cup?

In total, the current prize pool for the Melbourne Cup sits at a whopping $8 million, a number bettered by only four other races in the world. Of course, that doesn’t all go to the winner, and the total is spread among the top 12 horses in the race. The money is shared like this: 6^th-12^th earn a very tidy $160,000, 5^th wins $230,000, 4^thsnares $350,000, 3^rd gets $550,000, 2^nd wins $1.1 million, and the winner takes home an enormous $4.4 million.

But while the Melbourne Cup has for a long time had a significant prize pool, it hasn’t always been as large as it is today. In fact, back in 1861 when it was first run, the winner is believed to have earned £710 for their troubles – clearly that was worth more than it would be today, but it falls a fair way short of the $4.4 million the winner will get in 2021. It was in 1985 that the total prize pool first surpassed the $1 million mark, while just 20 years later it had increased up to $5 million. The $8 million that it sits at today was reached in 2019 – just two years prior to that it had been at $6.2 million, so it’s safe to say the number is rising fairly quickly.

Who actually takes home the winnings?

Of course, while it’s the horse who does all the running, they don’t have much need for $4.4 million, so the winnings are spread among various connections. The jockey earns 5% of the winnings, or around $220,000, and they also get a much smaller but still useful riding fee. The trainer gets double that at 10% of the winnings, which in 2021 will amount to $440,000. That then leaves a huge $3.74 million to be shared among owners and other connections.

How does the Melbourne Cup prize pool compare to other major races?

As mentioned, the total Melbourne Cup prize money is bettered by only a handful of races in the world, and within Australia it is significantly more than many other major Group 1 races. To put it into perspective, the winner of the Melbourne Cup earns more than the total prize pool for both the Queen Elizabeth Stakes and the Golden Slipper, and only slightly less than the total purse of each of the Cox Plate and the Caulfield Cup.

With these sums of money being thrown around, it’s easy to see why the Melbourne Cup is able to attract such high-quality stayers from around the world. And while the chance to etch one’s name in history and achieve one of the most significant accomplishments in world racing is a significant reason why the race is such a sought-after prize for trainers, jockeys and owners alike, the $4.4 million which is up for grabs certainly helps to add to the prestige.

 

 

The success of your company will not solely depend on how you manage it. Your employees play a crucial part in achieving your organisation’s goals. They are the ones who are behind every successful business. Taking the time to recognise their improvements and achievements is vital. Rewarding them is also another thing. If you aren’t acknowledging the small wins of your team members, you probably have to think again.

If you want them to do good at work, give them something that would make them feel that their efforts are appreciated. You can offer bonuses and even salary increases. You can also give them a short break from work by sponsoring fun activities from companies like https://www.wearetricycle.co.uk/. You may be spending a little, but we’re giving you three reasons why doing this is worth it.

Employee reward and recognition can help increase productivity

When your employees do something great, and you recognise them for their hard work, they will be motivated to do better. It will give them the idea that you see their efforts and will be determined to do more next time. As a result, they will be more productive and efficient in the workplace. Give them the reward they deserve if this will be one way to achieve your company’s goals.

Recognising and rewarding your employees can create a happy workplace

Who doesn’t want rewards? If you were to receive a gift, wouldn’t you be delighted? Your employees would be excited to come to work every day if they know that everything they do is appreciated. Saying a simple “thank you” or “great job” can uplift them. When your employees are happy, the environment inside the workplace would be great, as well. It can help your employees build a great team. If your team members are working together happily, you have a bigger chance of having a successful business.

Employee reward can lessen hiring and training expenses

When employees are not motivated, they will more likely leave the company. You incur higher hiring and training costs when your employees are constantly resigning from their positions. Hence, when they feel appreciated because you reward them for all they do, this will give them the impression that you are making them a part of your company’s success. If you think about it, it’s better to spend more on employee rewards than hiring and training expenses.

The way you appreciate and recognise your employees’ work is the key step to keeping them motivated. When you reward them for what they do, do not see this as an expense. Instead, see this as a form of investment. You want your business to be successful, so make sure that you recognise the people giving their effort to help you achieve your goals. A reward is beneficial to the employee and the company, as well. If your employees are doing their part, make sure that you also do your part. Finally, recognise and reward them for their small and big wins.

Are you confused and worried about how you will bring up the right of asylum to an immigration lawyer?

If you seek asylum, you are from a country where you have undergone persecution or will face persecution if you return to that country. And seeking asylum is a reasonable choice for someone who has a credible fear of persecution.

If you are planning to discuss how you could seek asylum with your immigration lawyer, you need to understand better what asylum means, how it works, and if you are eligible for it.

The right of seeking Asylum

What is asylum?

Asylum is a form of legal protection for people fearing persecution in their country to remain in the US.

What is the difference between an asylum seeker and a refugee?

An asylum seeker is seeking international protection, but their claim for refugee status is yet to be determined. In contrast, a refugee is a person acknowledged by law for refugee status and is now under the refugee protection program.

Why do people seek asylum?

People seek asylum because they have a reasonable and credible fear of persecution in their country. That means that if they go back to that country, their life would be at stake.

Are you eligible for Asylum?

You are eligible for asylum if you have been persecuted before or have evidence to believe that you will undergo persecution if you return to that country because of the following:

1. Race
2. Religion
3. Political opinion
4. Nationality
5. Membership in a particular social group

An immigration lawyer can help explain how this immigration application works and if you are eligible.

What are the benefits of seeking asylum?

If you have been granted asylum, you can have the same rights and assistance offered to any foreigner who is a legal resident. Therefore you have the right to:

1. Freedom of thought, opinion, and expression
2. Freedom of movement
3. Freedom of religion
4. Live and work in the US
5. Apply for the family reunification program
6. Apply for permanent residence and citizenship
7. Education, medical care, economic, and social rights

What is the process for gaining asylum?

The process starts with the preparation and submittal of an asylum application. It should be done within a year of entering the US.

The application will then be submitted to the US Citizenship and Immigration Services.

You’ll then appeal before an immigration judge, where an immigration lawyer will represent you and hopefully get your application for asylum approved.

What to expect when you contact an attorney for asylum

An immigration lawyer can help you apply properly and fast-track your application. They will also represent you when you need to appeal your case before a judge.

And they can help you fulfill your asylum requirements and give you the best chance of being granted refugee status in the US.

They are sure to help you with your best interest in mind.
