The US Army is set to evaluate 10 off the shelf submachine guns to fill its recently identified Sub Compact Weapon role. Last month (May 2018) the US Army’s PEO Soldier – Project Manager Soldier Weapons issued a Request for Information (RFI) to obtain industry feedback on possible submissions for submachine guns.
The specifications for potential Sub Compact Weapon (SCW) was vague and extremely broad, with the initial SCW RFI reading:
1. Delivery schedule of SCW to include but not limited to functional weapon, magazines, cleaning kits, suppressors, specialized tool kit (if required), spare parts, slings, carrying cases, manuals.
II. Ammunition for SCW – Compatibility with 9×19 mm military grade will be required.
III. Sub Compact Weapon – The SCW will be a full/semi-automatic selectable variant that has a MIL-STD 1913 rail (Picatinny Rail).”
It seems the RFI garnered plenty of interest and the US Army is set to evaluate no less than 10 potential SCWs. The US Army’s Contracting Command intends to award sole source contracts to the following:
Award Number: W15QKN-18-P-0034
Awardee: Colt’s Manufacturing Company LLC for CM9MM-9H-M5A, Colt Modular 9mm Sub Compact Weapon
Award Number: W15QKN-18-P-0037
Awardee: Beretta USA Corporation for Beretta PMX Sub Compact Weapon
Award Number: W15QKN-18-P-0038
Awardee: CMMG, Inc. for CMMG Ultra PDW Sub Compact Weapon
Award Number: W15QKN-18-P-0039
Awardee: CZ-USA for CZ Scorpion EVO 3 A1 Submachine gun
Award Number: W15QKN-18-P-0040
Awardee: Lewis Machine & Tool Company for MARS-L9 Compact Suppressed Weapon
Award Number: W15QKN-18-P-0041
Awardee: PTR Industries, Inc. for PTR 9CS Sub Compact Weapon
Award Number: W15QKN-18-P-0042
Awardee: Quarter Circle 10 LLC 5.5 CLT and 5.5 QV5 Sub Compact Weapon
Award Number: W15QKN-18-P-0043
Awardee: SIG SAUER, Inc. for SIG SAUER MPX Sub Compact Weapon
Award Number: W15QKN-18-P-0044
Awardee: Trident Rifles, LLC for B&T MP9 Machine Guns
Award Number: W15QKN-18-P-0045
Awardee: Zenith Firearms for Z-5RS, Z-5P and Z-5K Sub Compact Weapons
This extremely broad selection ranges from everything from MP5 clones (from PTR and Zenith) to AR15-based guns (from LMT, CMMG, Colt and possibly Quarter Circle 10). It was widely speculated that the SIG Sauer MPX and CZ Scorpion EVO 3 would go head to head for the SCW contract, and both have made the list, alongside the new Beretta PMX and B&T MP9. The single uniting factor of the various weapon systems is that, as the RFI requested, they are all chambered in 9x19mm.
The Army’s Contracting Command’s special notice did, however, offer some more information. Describing the SCW as:
“a highly concealable sub compact weapon system capable of engaging threat personnel with a high volume of lethal and accurate fires at close range with minimal collateral damage. An SCW includes but is not limited to functional weapon, magazines, cleaning kits, suppressors, specialized tool kit (if required), spare parts, slings, carrying cases, manuals.”
We also learn that the SCW is intended for Army Personal Security Details (PSD). PSDs are tasked with the close protection of senior officers and brigade command teams during operations. They essentially provide security and force protection for command staff. As such they are often moving in and out of vehicles and buildings and operating in confined spaces where a compact weapon would be useful.
The notice goes as far as to suggest that “failure to provide the selected SCW for assessment and evaluation will leave PSD military personnel with a capability gap which can result in increased warfighter casualties and jeopardize the success of the U.S. mission.”
The notice explains that the procurement of the SCW is essential to the requirement set out by Product Manager, Individual Weapons mission to assess commercially available off-the-shelf weapons that “fill a capability gap in lethality and concealability.”
As yet there are no details on the number of weapons ordered for evaluation from each of the companies listed and no numbers for how many SCWs might be procured if a larger contract is awarded. TFB has reached out to the Army Contracting Command for comment on the SCW programme and will take a closer look at the 10 SCW candidates selected in an upcoming article.

Chances are, if you tell any student that Ann
Arbor boasts 11 Japanese restaurants, they
will undoubtedly be astounded. Still, with all
of the places to choose from, finding the finest tuna
sashimi or eel and cucumber roll can be a daunting
task. Weekend Magazine went out to dinner at five
restaurants and came up with the best sushi picks
for you, whether you are in the mood for an elegant
sushi dinner or grabbing a quick lunch.
Those interested in an indulgent sushi experience have
to travel down a road less traveled, that road being Oak
Valley Drive. For an enjoyable night out (meaning, a great
place for a comfortable date) or an excuse to break away
from campus, Godaiko answers any appetite's plead for
serenity. With almost 40 rolls to choose from and daily
two-for-the-price-of-one roll specials, not to mention an
extensive menu that boggles the indecisive mind, this is
the place to eat sushi.
Owned by the Tsai family, this restaurant treats cus-
tomers with the utmost respect and serves the most innov-
ative sushi around. The overall quality of the fish is consis-
tently excellent here and the staff graciously assists patrons
with their orders. If you tell your waitperson you like spicy
food, he or she will know exactly what to recommend.
The minimal decor allows for an unpretentious milieu and
privacy can be sustained due,to standing screens and enclosed
rooms for large parties. The best feature is the open ceiling with
its exposed rafters, in which printed tapestries are suspended.
One of the only drawbacks about Godaiko is that the
salad and miso soup are not free as they are at other
restaurants. Yet, the salads here are the best. Served in
bigger portions and with a tangy ginger dressing (that is
neither creamy nor citrusy), it is actually worth the cost.
The miso soup is a production like no other - the server
pours the broth into a bowl of steamed vegetables.
The sushi bar is open for diners to observe the sushi chefs
engaged in the art of making gastronomic works of genius,
such as the Shrimp Net Roll. A simple roll of tempura
shrimp, scallion and spices, the focus is one the too-pretty-
to-eat freeze-dried wasabi lattice work outside the rice.
If wasabi's too tame for your palate, try the Spicy Thai
Shrimp roll, an impressive concoction of breaded Tiger
shrimp, tomato, avocado and Godaiko's House Spicy sauce.
But be forewarned, this roll is not for the weak, and an on-
hand supply of water is essential. The Wasabi roll is another
one that clears sinus passages and is definitely worth trying.
Each roll order is served on its own separate dish,
which makes each choice appear as a separate work of
At Sushi.come, patrons can choose from a wide selection of nigirl.
edible art. Just as beautiful, the Spicy Tuna Bowl is a
jewel-like vision of glistening, fresh tuna covered in a
chili sauce. Although it may initially seem a bit over-
whelming, considering the generous size of the tuna
pieces, the taste is very refreshing.
Far away compared to other sushi restaurants, Godaiko
requires one to have a car or take a pricy cab ride to get
there. But, even though the salad is not free and the tab
can become increasingly steep if ignored, the special rolls
and unfussy staff promise a memorable meal as soon as
you step through the door. Oh, yeah, they also give Andes
mints with your bill. That said, check please!
This Ann Arbor newcomer is already setting high culi-
nary standards for surrounding sushi restaurants. In hopes
of establishing a lucrative stay on State Street, Jane Kim's
new venue is conveniently situated among the numerous hot
spots for on-campus dining. Since its inception, Totoro
already boasts a superior reputation, yet, one question
remains: Will the success last?
Upon entering, customers encounter a deluge of Totoro's
newness - fresh paint, unscratched wood tables and a feel-
ing of cleanliness stand out and are suggestive of fare that's
as fresh as the business itself.
The staff is accommodating about everything from hold-
ing the mayo on a spicy tuna roll to understanding a patron's
fear of carbohydrates, as they'll wrap any roll in cucumber
instead of the traditional seaweed and rice (Note: This is
messy, and chopsticks can make these rolls fall apart. The
less experienced sushi customer should use his or her
hands). Salad and miso soup are complimentary to those
who dine in, which is a godsend for college budgets, and,
while the salads are tiny, they make sure customers will
leave enough room for the main attraction.
Put simply, the sushi here is among the freshest and best
available in the area. While common rolls like the ever-popu-
lar California and the simple cucumber are on the menu,
Totoro features more adventurous options for the fearless
customer. Among the more audacious offerings, which are
served in a lovely bowl, the Red Dragon - a spicy California
roll with tuna on the outside - creates a delicious fiery feel-
ing in your mouth that leaves you begging for more.
The Hawaii roll is also recommended, but one has to be will-
ing to eat raw fish and pineapple side by side. Sans rice, this roll
consists of avocado, crab salad, cucumber and pineapple

Many legal experts have spotted a clear tension between this week’s close 5-4 Supreme Court decision upholding President Trump’s travel ban, and the court’s very recent 7-2 ruling in Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission.
The cases raised similar issues, yet the justices went in opposite directions. Both decisions involved seemingly neutral government policies that were challenged in part because of evidence showing the true purpose behind them was discrimination on the basis of religion.
In Masterpiece Cakeshop, the court ruled in favor of Jack Phillips, a baker who refused to prepare a cake for a same-sex wedding, because he opposes such marriages on religious grounds. He prevailed because the justices found that some members of the Colorado Civil Rights Commission, which had adjudicated his claim, expressed bias against Phillips’ religious beliefs.
Donald Trump, meanwhile, famously called for a “Muslim ban” on the campaign trail — then instituted a travel ban that targeted Muslim-majority nations. Yet the court upheld the travel ban, and the majority concluded that Trump’s statements should not determine the outcome of the case. All five justices who voted to uphold the travel ban were also in the majority in Masterpiece Cakeshop.
This contradiction can’t be justified. The main rationalization for it — that immigration policy is largely exempt from normal judicial scrutiny — is badly flawed. Immigration and national security policy should not be exempt from the usual constraints of the Bill of Rights. Other possible justifications for the discrepancy also fall flat.
There was much stronger evidence of bias in the travel ban case than in Masterpiece
Jack Phillips prevailed, according to the majority in Masterpiece Cakeshop, because the Colorado Civil Rights Commission showed “elements of a clear and impermissible hostility toward the sincere religious beliefs that motivated his objection.” It was the words of the commission members that did them in. One member said it was “despicable” for the baker to use “freedom of religion ... to justify discrimination.” Another compared the baker’s views to the use of religion to justify slavery and the Holocaust.
The comparison between refusal to bake a cake and the Holocaust was indeed absurd, and it is reasonable to see that statement as evidence of not just foolishness but bias.
But as Justice Sonia Sotomayor points out in her dissent in the travel ban case, the evidence of discriminatory motivation on Trump’s part is far stronger. The travel ban proclamation followed numerous statements by President Trump explicitly advocating a “Muslim ban” (dating back to a December 2015 policy proposal calling for a “total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States”).
When Trump eventually switched to a “territorial” policy focused on Muslim-majority nations, he repeated equated that new policy with the earlier “Muslim ban” proposal. He even described the latter as an “expansion” of the former.
What’s more, the discriminatory motivations expressed in Trump’s statements played a far bigger role in the travel ban policy than the two commisioners’ biases did in the original adjudication of Masterpiece Cakeshop. As Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg pointed out in her Masterpiece Cakeshop dissent, the two officials who expressed prejudice against Phillips did not by themselves determine the outcome.
The case was first considered by the Colorado Civil Rights Division (which found “probable cause” for a violation of state antidiscrimination law), then assessed by the Civil Rights Commission, then heard by an administrative law judge, and finally reviewed by the Colorado Court of Appeals.
Only two of seven members of the Civil Rights Commission expressed hostility towards the baker’s beliefs religious beliefs; there was no indication of hostility on the part of the other three bodies that considered the case.
By contrast, where the travel ban is concerned, there was only one ultimate decision-maker: Trump. His motives are the ones that matter.
Chief Justice Roberts’s opinion for the court in Trump v. Hawaii endorses the administration’s claim that the travel ban was not based on Trump’s incendiary remarks on the campaign trail but rather rooted in a “worldwide review process undertaken by multiple Cabinet officials.” But that supposedly thorough review produced a cursory report only 17 pages long. And the resulting proclamation does not even consistently apply the criteria supposedly used to decide which countries effectively share information used to preventing terrorism.
Longstanding Supreme Court precedent holds that a seemingly neutral government policy can be invalidated if there is evidence that its true purpose was discrimination on the basis of prohibited classifications, such as race, ethnicity, or religion. But the government can potentially still prevail if it proves that the policy would likely have been enacted for legitimate reasons even in the absence of illicit motivations. By that standard, too, the case for upholding the Colorado ruling in the cake-shop case is stronger than that for upholding the travel ban.
The official security justification for the travel ban policy is laughably weak. In the 40-year period for which there is data, no one has ever been killed in a terrorist attack in the US by an entrant from any of the nations covered by travel ban. Combined with Trump’s statements and the highly dubious “review process, this strongly suggests that the official rationale for the policy was a pretext.
By contrast, there was a plausible rationale for Colorado’s decision: preventing discrimination against same-sex couples, whether or not such discrimination had religious motivations.
All efforts to distinguish the two cases fall short
In upholding the travel ban, the Supreme Court majority ruled that the policy was subject only to the most minimal “rational basis” review because it involves immigration policy, and immigration policy is relevant to national security. That policy realm, Chief Justice Roberts wrote, involves issues where the executive has specialized expertise that judges lack.
But there is no good reason to exempt immigration or security policy from normal judicial scrutiny for potential violations of the Bill of Rights. The First Amendment, like the rest of the Bill of Rights, was intended to limit government power generally; it wasn’t framed as applying to only specific categories of policies, or to certain categories of people.
While many argue that special deference to the executive in the immigration arena is mandated by previous Supreme Court precedent, the relevant cases are far less definitive than is often believed. And the court could have limited the scope of those precedents rather than give immigration policy near-total exemption from normal constraints on religious discrimination.
The executive certainly does sometimes have specialized expertise on immigration and national security. But the same is true of numerous other areas of government policy, where the courts do not apply any such ultradeferential approach, including even internal violence and terrorism. Almost any policy addressing a complicated issue is likely to have elements that involve specialized expertise.
Another possible distinction between the two cases (one not adopted by the court) is that much of the evidence of discriminatory intent in the travel ban case comes from campaign statements, rather than official deliberations. But there is no good justification to exempt campaign statements from consideration as evidence. Such statements can provide powerful indications of motive, and excluding them would create a dangerous road map for future discriminatory policies, allowing politicians to state their true purposes in the campaign only to use more guarded language later.
Finally, some suggest that Masterpiece Cakeshop presents a special situation because it involved a decision by “an adjudicatory body” (as Justice Anthony Kennedy put it in his majority opinion) rather than a legislature or an executive official. The Civil Rights Commission acted more like a court than like an elected official, in other words, and therefore perhaps should be subjected to tighter judicial scrutiny of its members’ statements.
But as Justice Kennedy also noted, the general rule at issue is that the government may not “base laws or regulations on hostility to a religion or religious viewpoint.” That rule applies to all branches of the government.
Ultimately, the different results in the two cases arise from the application of a double standard between immigration (especially when linked to national security) and other areas of government policy. In a concurring opinion in the travel ban case, Justice Kennedy shows some discomfort with this double standard. He suggests that there might still be some judicial review of immigration policies that are motivated by “animosity to a religion” — adding that even in situations where “statements and actions of Government officials are not subject to judicial scrutiny or intervention… officials are [not] free to disregard the Constitution and the rights it proclaims.”
Unfortunately, the effect of this case will be that unscrupulous officials are indeed largely “free to disregard the Constitution” in a critical area of government policy. That would not have been so if the Supreme Court had applied the same anti-discrimination standard in Masterpiece Cakeshop and the travel-ban case.

A home may be a person’s castle, but even a moat can’t protect you from the annoyances of your neighborhood.
HSH.com conducted a survey of 1,001 Americans about their biggest annoyances regarding their neighborhoods. We gave respondents a list of possible issues and asked them to choose the top five and rank them from 1 to 5.
Here’s what we found about neighborhood frustrations.
Nothing miffs people about their neighborhood more than busy streets and speeders. The survey found that 76 percent of respondents put “busy streets/speeders” in their top-five neighborhood annoyances. Houses being “too close” came in a close second at 71 percent, and “not enough local retail/food shopping” a distant third at 56 percent.
When broken down by owners and renters, busy streets/speeders remained the number one annoyance for owners, but the top choice for renters is houses being too close.
Frederick Ryan, police chief in Arlington, Massachusetts, says that fear about speeders and busy roads “can compromise some of our most vibrant neighborhoods.”
“A parent in fear of a family’s safety due to speeding cars is no different than a parent’s fear in an inner city urban environment due to violent crime; fear is fear. Yet citizens and officials alike sometimes minimize the impacts of traffic volume and traffic violations,” he says.
The annoyance about busy streets and speeders seems to grow the longer a person lives at a residence. Houses too close was the number one annoyance for those who lived in their homes seven or fewer years, but busy streets/speeders picked up the top spot for people who are in their homes for eight or more years.
Why the change? Respondents likely became more comfortable with the closeness of homes and began looking outward to the dangers on their streets. Plus, speeding cars might not concern you as much until you have children.
Kimberly O’Neil Mara, CPA, Realtor at Century 21 Spindler & O’Neil Associates in North Reading, Massachusetts, says some first-time homebuyers will purchase a starter home and are not concerned about a main road because they don’t see it as their forever home. They, instead, expect to live with the “nuisance in the short term,” she says.
Prospective homebuyers often don’t have the budget to satisfy every desire on their list so they sometimes need to choose a busy street to stay in their price range. John Mijac, sales manager at Long Realty Company in Tucson, Arizona, says it’s important in the process to figure out what are the most important needs. You’re going to live there so make sure it fits – and avoid as many neighborhood annoyances as possible.
What can you do about speeders?
Ryan says neighborhoods with speeding problems should work together with police to educate motorists about the harm of speeding.
“We recommend the triple ‘E’ approach to traffic management: Education, Engineering and Enforcement,” says Ryan. “If neighborhoods and officials seek out environmental and/or engineering solutions they can realize immediate results.”
One common problem is wide-open roads with little visual obstruction, which invite motorists to accelerate. Working together, police and residents can find simple ways to slow down traffic.
“By placing a few strategically located parked cars and ‘necking down’ the roadway, it will likely result in driving down the average speed of cars. In terms of traffic volume, traffic is like water; it will seek its own level. This is where sound engineering and marco-level community planning are essential,” says Ryan.

Big data to inform traffic safety policy in Addis Ababa
October 9, 2023
The world is a dangerous place. According to the latest WHO data some 1.3 million people lose their lives each year due to traffic crashes. 90 percent of those who die from traffic accidents live in low- and middle-income countries, with Africa witnessing the highest rates for road traffic injury deaths.
The causes are all connected yet many urban approaches to managing roads still centre heavily on economic objectives rather than the need for road safety. To produce positive road safety outcomes, strong management in all aspects of road safety is key.
Many cities have created and adopted urban mobility plans and strategies. However, the data used to inform these strategies often come from siloed sources. Helpful insights that could be used to inform traffic safety policy remained a challenge.
UNDP Ethiopia’s Accelerator Lab has partnered with InnoConnect, a Czech SME focused on mobility-related data analytics, and Addis Ababa Traffic Management Agency (TMA), to perform a deep analysis of traffic safety to identify high-risk locations and visualise specific information about single-car accidents in Addis Ababa city.
Big data-driven insights from the analysis inform policymakers and city operators with in-depth knowledge of factors that increase the risk of severe accidents to make decisions that help to improve traffic safety in Addis Ababa. The experimental project is implemented with the financial support of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic through the Czech-UNDP Partnership for SDGs.
InnoConnect released the Road Crash Analytical Map of Addis Ababa during the road safety workshop that was held with road safety experts on 30 August 2023. The map helps city decision-makers at different levels of governance gain data-driven insights to better design, implement and evaluate measures aimed at reducing fatal and severe road crashes.
The stakeholders, which included the Traffic Management Agency of Addis Ababa, traffic police, G&Y Engineering Consult, and the Bloomberg Initiative for Global Road Safety, exchanged on the crash data collection and management, shared experience on data cleaning and interpretation and discussed road safety policies in Ethiopia.
Jiri Bouchal, CEO and co-founder at InnoConnect demonstrated the broad functionalities of the newly released Road Crash Analytical Map. The web application allows a detailed analysis of road crash data to identify high-risk locations, get in-depth knowledge of factors that increase the risk of severe incidents, and visualise specific information about single crashes. Jiri shared InnoConnect’s experience of the processing and cleaning of road crash data provided by the Ethiopian partners, suggested improvements in the categorisation of attributes, stressed the importance of accuracy of the crash data collected by police and demonstrated what information on road crashes is collected in police statistics.
Addis Ababa's traffic safety experts identified the added value of the analytical map for their policy-making as well as daily police operations, especially for the following needs:
Crash blackspot management
Identification of locations to implement low-speed zones
Monitoring and evaluation
Evaluating the effectiveness of interventions
Learnings from the process have contributed towards Addis Ababa Traffic Management Agency (TMA) efforts to improve the process of collecting crash records which is supported by the Bloomberg Initiative for Global Road Safety.
Improvements include new standard electronic crash forms to be filled by police officers, an increase in data quality thanks to training police personnel on how to collect and record the information on road crashes, as well as the establishment of an IT infrastructure that will store the data from the whole city in a single database and will thus allow an efficient analysis by the TMA's data unit.

The South Street Seaport, one of New York City's oldest and most historic neighborhoods, is in the midst of a huge transition. Pier 17, although currently closed, is being redeveloped into a massive, multimillion-dollar, high-end retail and dining destination with a rooftop event space. (Target completion date: sometime in 2017!) But even though that part of the Seaport isn't accessible at the moment, there are still plenty of things for families to do, see and experience in this popular downtown Manhattan neighborhood.
A pair of exceptional play spots, including the Imagination Playground, an under-the-radar maritime museum, boat tours, landmarked buildings, a public pier with gorgeous views and a few FREE outdoor festivals make the Seaport a great place to visit this summer with kids—whether you're a tourist or a local.

NLRB Ends Protection For Obscene, Racist & Sexually Harassing Speech
At a time when abusive speech is becoming more and more a part of public discourse, the National Labor Relations Board (“NLRB”) has given greater power to employers to discipline employees for profanity or sexually or racially offensive speech.
As noted in a January 2018 blog post, the NLRB long held that concerted activities for the mutual aid or protect of employees can be legally protected under the National Labor Relations Act (“NLRA”) even if laced with abusive or offensive language. The NLRB assumed abusive conduct and protected activity were analytically inseparable. For decades, the NLRB adhered to the position that the discipline or discharge of an employee for abusive conduct during concerted activities was an unfair labor practice in violation of the NLRA.


Chicago transit decided to offer penny rides on New Year’s Eve to make sure all the residents who decide to go out and celebrate the new year get home safe! Isn’t this the kind of thing that a government that should be working for its people does? I’m pretty sure Boston won’t follow suit and will continue to follow their Puritanical ways of closing the transit system down before the bars. So, bring cab fare out and don’t drive drunk. And vote for people who give a shit about you.

This afternoon the US Senate followed the House by approving a FISA (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act) re-authorization without any reforms to safeguard the people’s Fourth Amendment rights that protect unreasonable searches and seizures. The vote was 65-34.
One report noted:
The specific statute allows federal intelligence agencies to collect data on foreigners suspected of crimes. The broad powers interpreted in the law and the inherent nature of surveillance, however, often cause the electronic communications of law-abiding Americans to be scooped up as well.
These communications can be obtained without a warrant!
A group of conservatives, led by Rand Paul and Mike Lee, attempted to add some reforms to the bill to safeguard the electronic communications of American citizens but ultimately failed, while other “conservatives” like Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio supported it.
Both Mississippi’s US Senators, Roger Wicker and Thad Cochran, also voted for the bill and against protections for the American people.
It is worth noting that it was the FISA court that authorized the surveillance of the Trump campaign in the fall of 2016.

A regular dental check-up is important because they help keep your teeth and gums healthy. You should have a regular dental visit at least every 6 months or as recommended by your dental professional. If you’re doubting the importance of that next checkup, consider these 5 reasons why getting a regular dental checkup is important.
Keep teeth clean
Even the most diligent brusher and flosser will miss spaces that are simply too hard to reach. Having your teeth professionally cleaned ensures that all parts of your mouth are free from bacteria, food particles, plaque, and tartar which can contribute to damaging your smile.
Oral Cancer Screening
Oral cancer isn’t easily detectable by the average person, especially in its early stages. Your dentist is highly trained to recognize signs and symptoms of oral cancer, and with regular dental checkups every six months, the likelihood of catching oral cancer before it becomes serious is dramatically higher. Recognizing oral cancer early is pertinent to successfully treating it.
Squashing bad habits
Part of the checkup process at Quince Orchard Dental Care is education. Many people are guilty of practicing bad habits that are detrimental to their teeth without even knowing it. At our dental checkups, we take the time to educate you on how habits such as chewing ice, biting your nails, clenching your jaw, grinding your teeth, eating particularly sticky or hard sweets, brushing your teeth too hard, drinking coffee and red wine, and smoking are affecting your teeth and what you can do about it.
Plaque and tartar buildup not only cause tooth decay but can also erode the mouth’s gum tissues. This happens when tartar buildup causes an infection where the gum is connected to the tooth, making the gum pull away from the tooth. This infection is known as gingivitis and as it progresses the tissue that attaches gums to the teeth breaks down. Regular dental checkups will allow gingivitis to be spotted and treated early.
Spot potential problems early
After your cleaning, the dentist will conduct an examination, checking for cavities or other problems. Tooth decay is easier to treat at its earliest stages. Once a cavity tears into the enamel, it can inflame the pulp, which is the soft tissue inside each tooth. From there, an infection can spread to the root. In extreme cases, extensive decay can lead to a serious bacterial infection.
Regular dental checkups are essential for maintaining a healthy and beautiful smile. At Quince Orchard Dental Care, we are a complete health practice which means that we believe oral health is only part of good overall health. Contact us today to schedule an appointment with one of our professional, certified dentists.

An e-ticket is an electronic airline ticket, or electronic reservation. A traveler is not issued a traditional paper ticket, but instead, he prints out his reservation information, and often his boarding pass, from e-mail before heading to the airport. In some cases, the ticket can be displayed on a smartphone, using the airline's ticketing application. The reservation is kept in the airline's computer system.
Using this type of ticket saves airlines money because they do not have to spend money and postage issuing paper versions. The e-ticket is also more reliable, since the traveler need not depend on the mail to receive his ticket, or on a ticketing clerk at the airport, who may not know the document was to be held for the traveler at the counter.
An e-ticket can also be cheaper than a paper ticket. U.S. airlines often charge extra fees to issue paper tickets to helps offset printing and postage charges. Older travelers would often rather have a paper ticket, and will pay the extra fee, but most travelers prefer to avoid it.
Using an e-ticket generally involves having the reservation information printed and ready for inspection. If online check-in is available, a traveler is always advised to take advantage of this procedure. If this is not feasible, travelers may be able check in at the electronic kiosk for their airline at the airport, or they can always check in at the ticket counter itself. When checking in at the ticket counter, the traveler will show the reservation information to the agent and have the boarding passes printed out there. An increasing number of airlines are also creating smartphone apps that allow passengers to pull up their e-tickets through the application to show security officials and boarding agents.
Although all major U.S. airlines and most major world airlines use the e-ticket, not all do. It is always advisable for a traveler to check and see if an electronic ticket will be accepted at the ticket counter. This is especially true for travelers flying on a major airline's codeshare partner. The main airline will probably honor the ticket, but the codeshare partner may or may not.
An e-ticket can be purchased directly from an airline's website, from a travel site or from a travel agent. Using one can help prevent the ticket from being lost or stolen, since the reservation remains in the airline's computer system. It's always a good idea to print out reservation information, however, since computers can crash and the traveler may need to show the information to a security agent.

BMT Myrtle Avenue Line
BMT Myrtle Avenue Line at Central Avenue, R-160A-1 no. 8632 on "M". Photo by Richard Panse, September 2008.
Today's Myrtle Ave. line is a shadow of a former line which ran from downtown Brooklyn (Jay Street) to Broadway/Myrtle upper level where it continued along this right of way. Original service patterns had the line continuing past Jay St. to Park Row in lower Manhattan via the Brooklyn Bridge. Through 1959, the line south of Broadway was operated with old Brooklyn Union/BRT open gate cars, then until 1968 using the BMT-modified "Q" cars. This line was the last in the city still using wooden-body el cars. The northern portion of the line (north of Broadway) was rebuilt to heavier standards and some service ran from the Broadway line north to Metropolitan Ave. Today's M train runs from Metropolitan to Broadway/Myrtle lower level at all times. During rush hours and middays it continues along the Jamaica line and Williamsburg Bridge, then via the Chrystie St. Connection to the IND 6th Avenue Line. It then crosses into Queens via the 53rd Street Tunnel and runs local along Queens Boulevard to Forest Hills. Lower Manhattan and Brooklyn M service was discontinued for the new Midtown and Queens M service in June, 2010.

You can click here to donate to Landrieu's campaign:Here on Team Tester, we know a thing or two about what it takes to win a close race. And Montanans definitely know a barn burner when we see one.
My friend Mary Landrieu in Louisiana is facing a tough fight and our grassroots network could really help out. There’s also a big December deadline coming up this month.Her campaign is trying to get more donors before the end of the year — and we only have a few weeks to make it happen. Can you give $5 or more to help them out?
Like Montana, Louisiana needs a senator who will make the right decision no matter what Washington thinks. And Louisiana needs Mary’s no-nonsense leadership -- especially now.
This is her first campaign since the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision, which will definitely open the floodgates to secret money and out-of-state special interests — and Mary's campaign has to be prepared for opponents that will take full advantage.
We only have this month left to reach Mary’s donor goal. Can you pitch in $5 right now to help her out and pledge your grassroots support?
She will always have our back on the issues that matter most. Thank you for supporting her.
