Tooth pain is one of the telltale signs that your tooth pulp has been compromised, with infections leading to inflammation resulting in abscesses (drainage of pus-filled sacs within teeth).
Root canal treatment is a dental procedure designed to remove infections and bacteria from infected or damaged tooth pulp, sealing it off permanently with permanent material to prevent further infections in future.
Root canal treatment should only be undertaken when absolutely necessary to prevent serious complications. If your toothache won’t go away or is radiating to the jaw or other teeth, or you experience radiating pain that radiates around them, this could indicate an infection in the pulp of the tooth, potentially resulting in swelling of gums and an inability to bite down or chew properly. You might also develop fistulae on the gum which alert your dentist that pus, blood or infectious materials have entered and need extracting via root canal.
Root canal therapy is a dental procedure designed to clean and seal infected tooth tissue in order to keep the tooth functional while also preventing further infections in its root.
Root canal treatments are conducted under local anaesthetic, to alleviate any discomfort during the procedure. Your dentist will place a rubber sheet around the affected tooth to protect it from saliva or bacteria that might compromise treatment results, often using a dental dam to ensure you don’t breathe in any chemicals used to numb it.
Once numb, a dentist will open your tooth by means of its crown (the flat part at the top), to access any infected pulp tissue inside. While this can be uncomfortable, try relaxing and taking deep breaths as this procedure may last several hours before wear-off occurs; additionally it would be wise to consume food beforehand to increase effectiveness of numbing medication.
Modern techniques of root canal preparation emphasize focusing on the coronal section before moving to apical canal preparation, to maximize penetration of irrigation solution and lessen chances of compacting debris in the final canal segment. Copious irrigation after each file as well as watchwinding technique with slight apical pressure are employed in order to advance files without overworking dentine or creating blockages are also utilized.
Your dentist will use various files to shape and prepare the canal for obturation. Each file should be carefully inserted until it comes within 2.0 mm of working length before being carefully extracted using a silicone stop. Finally, the canal is cleaned, rinsed and sanitised using a mixture of EDTA and sodium hypochlorite to eliminate debris such as plaque build-up or infected debris from within its walls.
Dependent upon how a root canal is performed, dentists may utilize various anesthetic measures to make treatment painless. These may include: i. Blocking nociceptive impulses along peripheral nerves. ii. Preventing central nervous system pain perception by prescribing medication such as an NSAID.
Root canal therapy is necessary when the pulp of a tooth (containing blood vessels, nerves and connective tissue ) becomes inflamed or infected due to deep cavities or physical trauma to the mouth or teeth. Untreated, an infection could spread to other parts of the tooth as well as to surrounding gum tissue causing further problems like pus-like discharge from pores within gum tissue, swelling gums or fistula formation on gum lines or even cracks in teeth or around them – these complications often leading to further medical interventions like cracks being made permanent!
Root canal therapy removes infected or dead tissue and restores normal function by filling and sealing the interior of the root canal. After treatment is complete, it is typically restored with a dental crown to match its surroundings – this will prevent cracking, weakening, or brittleness and further infections in future years.
Most patients do not experience pain during root canal treatment, however some may experience mild discomfort post-procedure due to healing processes; this discomfort can usually be treated using over-the-counter analgesics.
Your dentist will administer local anesthetic to numb the area before placing a small protective sheet called a dental dam over the affected tooth to keep saliva and debris from coming in contact with it while they perform treatment. Depending on the severity of your issue, IV sedation might allow patients to sleep during root canal therapy treatment.
Nitrous oxide (commonly referred to as laughing gas) is an increasingly popular method of sedation for root canal treatments, administered via an anti-anxiety mask worn over the nose and working quickly to relieve anxiety. While it doesn’t put people completely to sleep, laughing gas will create an atmosphere of relaxation for people anxious about receiving root canal procedures.
Root canal therapy is often the ideal treatment option for teeth that have inflammation or infection, including abscess formation. Left untreated, these teeth could loosen within their socket and eventually fall out completely; but with timely root canal treatments removing bacteria and healing naturally while saving your natural tooth for years to come.
Starting off the procedure involves an in-depth physical and x-ray examination of an infected tooth. Once we understand its nature, a local anesthetic will be given to numb the affected area for maximum comfort during treatment. Next, a “dental dam” is put around it to keep saliva away and ensure no other substances get into its vicinity during this phase.
An access hole will then be created through the crown, the flat top part of a tooth, to expose its pulp in the centre. Infected pulp will then be extracted using dental instruments while empty tooth canals are disinfected, shaped, and filled back up using gutta-percha – this process ensures all bacteria is eliminated to help avoid future infections.
Once a tooth is fully cleaned, its canal is sealed using a color-matched root canal filling to match its surrounding teeth. Next step includes applying a tooth-coloured restoration such as a dental crown to restore the appearance and protect it against further infection or fracture.
Although anesthesia administered during root canal treatments should ensure no discomfort during treatment, some discomfort is inevitable in the days that follow – from dull aches to sharp pains – which is easily managed with over-the-counter analgesics.
Root canal therapy can help save an infected tooth and restore a functional and beautiful smile, but even with successful treatment it remains susceptible to damage or decay in the future – thus it’s important to maintain good oral hygiene, limit sugar intake and visit the dentist on a regular basis.
As with all dental treatments, it’s essential to follow the advice of your dentist when receiving dental treatments. Any discomfort caused by treatments is usually treatable using over the counter medication; in addition, hard and sticky foods should be avoided as they could irritate teeth or temporary fillings and cause further issues.
Root canal treatment is often employed to address an infected and/or abscessed tooth, as soon as symptoms arise it must be dealt with immediately to stop further infection spreading.
At the outset of any root canal procedure, your dentist will administer local anesthetic to numb the affected area and place a “dental dam” around your tooth to isolate it from saliva and other debris during treatment.
Once the anesthetic has taken effect, the dentist will use special dental instruments to extract decayed tooth structures, open an opening in the affected tooth, remove unhealthy pulp tissue, clean canals with different size files and then irrigate to ensure all bacteria is gone from your system.
Root canal treatment is often successful and the affected tooth can be saved; however, in rare instances the canal was not completed correctly and must be extracted.
Routine dental checkups can lower the risk of root canal treatments failing, by helping detect problems early and treat them efficiently.
Root canal procedures may seem intimidating, but they’ve helped many save their teeth through this procedure. Any infection in the mouth must be addressed as quickly as possible to minimize risk and stop irreversible abscesses from developing. If you experience pain, swelling, or bad taste in your mouth seek medical advice immediately – the sooner problems are identified and addressed the better chance you have of saving a tooth!


Houston bred/LA based singer, songwriter Trevor Daniel releases his new EP That Was Then today via ALAMO/RCA Records. Along with previously released tracks “Dadada,” “Alone” and “Fingers Crossed” with Julia Michaels, That Was Then features new tracks such as “Thirsty,” “Antisocial,” “Now We’re Done” and “Toxxxic”.
About That Was Then, Trevor says, “This project is essentially a bunch of things made throughout quarantine, inspired by the random points and emotions of where my head was throughout the year in comparison to where I’m at now….THAT WAS THEN.”
Earlier this year, Trevor released his debut album Nicotine, a ten track, tightly produced album which includes the anthemic single “Past Life” which was co-produced by Grammy winning songwriter and Billie Eillish collaborator, Finneas O’Connell. The Billboard Magazine “Chartbreaker” artist titled the album Nicotine to reflect on the addictive nature of love and heartbreak. Originally from Houston, TX, (now based in LA) Trevor became an artist to watch with the success of his melancholic trap-infused single “Falling” — which after a second boost on Tik Tok, peaked at #25 on the Hot 100 charts and in the Top 20 in over 40 countries becoming a Global artist almost overnight.

Twenty miles east of Sparks, Nevada, is a high desert that has history written all over it. And for many years, we have seen this area as one of the best places to visit when we just need to see around. Well, right there, over the dirty red dust of that desert, a factory is rising, and this factory belongs to pioneer automaker, Tesla.
Right now, you may see something that doesn’t look exactly like a factory as all you can find there are a few structures and steel girders. Tesla said that this few structures will, one day, become the foundation for a Gigafactory, and this is the place where transportation will be redefined.
Elon Musk plans to build the batteries that will be powering the company’s electric vehicles. Prior to this time, the company has mainly imported its batteries from Asia and it could be very challenging to achieve the company’s aim of producing 500,000 cars in a year if it relies on importation alone. So it’s imperative that a battery factory is built right here.
Speaking of the factory, Elon Musk said that, “the factory is the machine that builds a machine.” Well, that’s a fitting description of what the factory can do, and how extensive we can expect Musk to use it.

My name is Eve Redding, and I am the new god.
They captured me in a dirty alley and injected me with a virtual reality chip, a GPS tracker, and my first Seed. They made me a Player. At first, I loved the miraculous ability to level up anything about myself.
Then they yanked me off my world for the first time, and sent me to fight for my life on a vicious alien planet, where the other Players are just as dangerous as the monsters, and if you can’t level up, you die. But I’m the type to cling to life by the tips of my bloody fingernails. And I hate it when people try to control me.
Gods of Blood and Bone is the first book in the Seeds of Chaos series, and is a LitRPG/GameLit book that combines science fiction and game elements. Fans of Ready Player One, Red Rising, and The Hunger Games will likely enjoy this series.

Premier League side Arsenal was quite busy this summer in the transfer market, relatively busier than previous summer markets actually. The Gunners landed Pablo Mari, Cedric Soares, and Willian. While the Brazilian joined on a free transfer from Chelsea, Dani Ceballos joined on another loan spell from Real Madrid. Gabriel Magalhaes joined from Lille to boost the defence. Iceland international Runar Alex Runarsson joined the goalkeepers after Emiliano Martinez left. Other small signings joined but the key addition was former Atletico Madrid’s Thomas Partey.
Partey joined amid a deadline day drama as Arsenal had paid the release clause directly to the La Liga after failed talks with Atletico. The Ghanaian has featured in the narrow loss to Manchester City, making his debut before partnering with M Elneny and youngster Bukayo Saka against Rapid Wien in the Europa League.
Togo international Emmanuel Adebayor believes Manchester City should win their Champions League round of 16 tie against Real Madrid. The Cityzens won 2-1 during the first leg at the Bernabeu in February and they are now in the driving seat to make the last eight of the competition, considering Los Blancos need at least two goals to stay alive in the contest.
Speaking to AS, Adebayor said that Los Blancos would have been able to turnaround the tie with Cristiano Ronaldo in their squad, but without his presence, they face a stiff challenge of overcoming the deficit at the Etihad Stadium, he told the Spanish publication: “If you had asked me that question two years ago, I would have said yes.
Newcastle United favourite Lee Clarke has said that the likes of Philippe Coutinho and Wilfried Zaha are realistic targets for the Magpies in the next transfer window. The Tyneside outfit are currently on the verge of a takeover from a Saudi-based consortium and that is expected to witness a change in the transfer policy at the club.
The prospective new owners are said to have the plan to take the club right to the top and a number of high-profile players have already been linked with moves to St James’ Park. Among those, Coutinho and Zaha have been regularly mentioned in the media and Clark believes the duo are realistic targets when compared to the Kylian Mbappe.
Tim Sherwood has opened up on his decision to bring back Emmanuel Adebayor to the first-team action after being previously sacked by Andre Villas-Boas’ regime.Adebayor has played for Tottenham from 2012 to 2015. During this three year period, the striker went through a load of ups and downs. Now 36,Adebayor is playing for a Paraguayan clubOlimpia after having joined them in 2020. The striker’s best known for his time with Arsenal, who he represented for three years from 2006 to 2009. During this period, he also had the maximum number of games for any club in his career as he represented the Gunners in 104 games. This was almost twice the tally he managed at Tottenham, as White Hart Lane fans were able to see him for 59 matches.
A significant factor behind the less number of games was the problems between Andre Villas-Boas and Adebayor. The Togo international found himself being relegated from the first-team as a result of his fight with the manager. However, he was brought back to the first-team by Tim Sherwood, who came in as a replacement. Looking back now, Sherwood says that it was important to treat Adebayor in a different way, as it would help him become more expressive in an expansive style of play.
Brighton & Hove Albion legend Kerry Mayo has said that Wilfried Zaha is one of the top 10 players in the country. The Ivory Coast international has played a key role in the Eagles’ stability as a Premier League outfit and Mayo has described the winger as a ‘great player’, who can create something out of nothing.
He told: “There’s so many players potentially close to being that Wilfried Zaha, but not quite there. I don’t think there’s anybody there that you could honestly say could take the game, with a moment of magic, and take it by the scruff of the neck. Wilf Zaha is something else, it pains for me to say it as a Crystal Palace player but he’s a great player. I think he’s a top 10 player in the country and Palace you know, they’ve done a great job keeping him.”
Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha has said that his season starts now with Crystal Palace. The Ivorian was the subject of transfer interest from both Arsenal and Everton during the summer but he was ultimately left disappointed with the Eagles opting against his sale to the latter. The 26-year-old made an indifferent start to the season as he struggled to score goals but of late, he has found his touch by netting in back-to-back games.
One of those came in the 2-0 triumph over Burnley and speaking after that game, Zaha stated that he is getting back to his best, he told the club’s website: “Let me be honest, the only thing I’ve changed is just let me worry about myself, that’s it. I used to get annoyed about everything: the referee, the other team and my own team-mates at times. My season starts now, from (last) Saturday, I’ll just worry about myself and do what I do.” (more…)
Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson has said that he has the ambition of guiding the Eagles to European football following mid-table finishes in the past few seasons. The south London side have managed to stay clear of the drop zone under the guidance of Hodgson and he is now keen to take the next step and push for European football.
Speaking in a press conference, Hodgson acknowledged that he has the dream of propelling the Eagles to the European places but that remains a challenge at the moment with the team in need of more investment, he told: “I think everyone aspires to it, you start the season always dreaming that this season will be better than the previous one and that you will finish higher up the league.”
Everton legend Neville Southall has said that the Toffees have missed the opportunity to lure Wilfried Zaha from Crystal Palace this summer. The Ivory Coast international was recently the subject of a £55m bid from the Toffees which was declined, and the Merseyside outfit have since stated that they won’t be coming up with a renewed approach for the attacker.
As a result, Zaha appears set to remain with the south London club beyond the summer and Southall feels the Toffees should have done better to pursue the former Manchester United man, he said: “I don’t think he’ll go to Everton, full stop, but it would have been a good a signing for us. I think coming from Crystal Palace, Everton would be a step up and I do think if you look at what we have coming in the future, Everton would have been a better long-term prospect, but I don’t think the transfer is going to happen.” (more…)
Arsenal legend Ian Wright has said that it would be magnificent for the Gunners, should they pursue the signature of Wilfried Zaha from Crystal Palace this summer. The Ivorian has been regularly linked with the Gunners in the past few weeks and reports have emerged that the club have recently failed with an approach for his signature.
Speaking to South China Morning Post, Wright acknowledged that he would be pleased with the arrival of Zaha at the Emirates, but the club also need to improve on the midfield department, where a void has been left by the departure of Aaron Ramsey, he said: “We’re trying to get Wilfried Zaha, which would be magnificent.
Former Arsenal star Emmanuel Adebayor has aimed a dig at the north London outfit by suggesting that there are no assurances regarding the long-term futures of their leading players. The Togo international has previously indicated that he was pushed through the exit door during his time at Arsenal and he has predicted the same to happen with one of Aubameyang or Lacazette ahead of next season.
Speaking to The Mail, Adebayor said that he did not enjoy the best of times with the Capital outfit where there was the regular occurrence of players making the switch to the likes of Barcelona, he told: “It reached a time where you would go on holiday and be checking the Daily Mail website to see who is close to leaving for Barcelona or Milan.”

You might just run into LA chef royalty as well, Roy Choi and friends are known to frequent this spot.
N. Alvarado St. & Montana St., Los Angeles
Boasting a diverse, yet decidedly hipster clientele (with the location it’s a given) Taco Zone is no less amazing and renowned. The carne asada is great but the saudero (rib meat) is the king. Top with their bright and spicy house-made salsas and you’ve got something amazingly delicious to sop up all that booze from Los Globos.
Multiple trucks with various locations Check @kogibbq on Twitter for whereabouts Sure, they're well known, and some may even say overrated. But you can't deny the massive impact Roy Choi's korean mexican food had on food as we know it and literally kickstarting the entire food truck movement/renaissance. The lines may be shorter (not by much) but the tacos are still amazing. The short rib is still the one to get and the tacos accoutrements perfectly complement the flavor-packed fillings.

Act fast to help save a knocked-out tooth
If a permanent tooth is knocked out, these steps can help save it.
If your child — or anyone else — gets a permanent tooth knocked out, these steps can help save it. (Baby teeth can rarely, if ever be saved)
- Handle the tooth very carefully. Don't touch the root for any reason (the part that was in the gum).
- If you can, gently place the tooth back in the hole it left in the gum (don't try to place the tooth back in its position if it has fallen on the ground and is dirty). Or, if you're sure the child won't swallow the tooth, ask the child to hold it between his cheek and gum.
- You can also put the tooth in a glass of milk or in a cup with saliva. It must be kept moist, but putting it in water is not a good idea.
- Get to your dentist, doctor or ER right away. The longer it takes, the less likely it is the tooth can be saved.

Patients with head and neck cancer experience many problems with eating which make them at high risk of malnutrition. Pre-habilitation swallowing exercises as overseen by a speech pathologist can improve swallowing function. A multidisciplinary approach to care, including effective nutritional screening, assessment and intervention has demonstrated improved outcomes in terms of meet nutritional requirements, improved nutritional status and quality of life. Nutritional recommendations are 1.2-1.5 g protein per kilogram per day and 125kJ/kg body weight per day but as these are guides close monitoring of intake and weight is important. Multidisciplinary teams and telehealth have shown better outcomes for nutrition and swallowing status for head and neck cancer patients and ongoing support is required for best patient care.

KUWAIT CITY, Dec 27: Jleeb Al- Shuyoukh area has been suffering for many years, mostly due to the large presence of bachelors, widespread crime of thefts, and dilapidated infrastructure of roads and sanitation among others, reaching the extent of importing problems from nearby areas such as Abbasiya and Al-Hassawi, reports Al- Anba daily. Wanting to shed light on the most important challenges in Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh area, the daily met with a number of citizens living there to hear their opinions and convey their complaints and demands to the competent authorities.
The Kuwaiti residents of the area affirmed the lack of security and stability due to the large displacement of expatriates to the area. They demanded the need to withdraw government homes from those who rent or use them as shops and stores, and give them to deserving citizens.
The residents said the area includes only 550 houses and its streets are crowded with vehicles for its location near the garages, indicating that they feel like they are strangers in their area. They called on the concerned authorities to expedite in saving the situation before it is too late.

Coercive Care: Rights, Law and Policy (Biomedical Law and Ethics Library) (Hardcover)
There has been much debate about mental health law reform and mental capacity legislation in recent years with the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities also having a major impact on thinking about the issue. This edited volume explores the concept of 'coercive care' in relation to individuals such as those with severe mental illnesses, those with intellectual and cognitive disabilities and those with substance use problems. With a focus on choice and capacity the book explores the impact of and challenges posed by the provision of care in an involuntary environment. The contributors to the book look at mental health, capacity and vulnerable adult's care as well as the law related to those areas. The book is split into four parts which cover: human rights and coercive care; legal capacity and coercive care; the legal coordination of coercive care and coercive care and individuals with cognitive impairments. The book covers new ground by exploring issues arising from the coercion of persons with various disabilities and vulnerabilities, helping to illustrate how the capacity to provide consent to treatment and care is impaired by reason of their condition.


Warren turns her ire to Trump, stumps on her electability
Fresh off a debate performance that may have bolstered her standing in the 2020 Democratic race, Senator Elizabeth Warren returned to Massachusetts focused on strengthening her electability against President Donald Trump.
Speaking at the Massachusetts Democratic Convention on Saturday, Warren said the Trump administration is “one of the darkest chapters in our nation’s modern history” and called on Democrats to unite toward a common goal: beat Trump in 2020.
Warren, a native of Oklahoma who’s represents her adopted home state of Massachusetts, where she taught at Harvard Law School, in the U.S. Senate, has largely avoided directly attacking Trump or her Democratic competitors on the campaign trail.
The focus on electability went to answer a persistent question in the minds of Democratic officials and voters about the progressive senator’s candidacy: can she win a general election against Trump in a race that will no doubt be nasty.
Warren, 70, highlighted her electability argument by laying out policy proposals that she said will fix the problems that got Trump elected in the first place.
“This dark moment requires more than being not Trump,’ because a country that elects someone like Donald Trump is a country that’s already in serious trouble,” Warren said. “We need to talk honestly about what’s broken in America, but even more than that – we must show American that we have plans to make big, structural changes to fix what’s broken.”
Warren’s support has been inching upward as she made one detailed policy proposal after another all year. She’s slowly gaining ground on front-runner Joe Biden and even boosted her polling against Trump. With over four months until the Iowa caucuses, Warren’s second hurdle is to convince voters that she’ll be a unifying candidate for the nation, said Debra Kozikowski, vice-chairwoman of the Massachusetts Democratic Party.
“If there’s a problem, she has a plan, a path to get there and puts a price tag on it,” said Kozikowski, who hasn’t publicly endorsed a candidate. “That kind of attention to detail from a presidential candidate can bridge a lot of philosophical differences.”
Biden scored a point in Thursday’s Democratic debate in Houston, however, by challenging Warren on how she would pay for one of her central plans, government-run health care often known as Medicare for All. She avoided giving a direct answer, beyond saying that a family’s health-care costs would drop.
No Small Ideas
Biden, too, has made beating Trump central to his campaign message, pitching himself as the one who can appeal to working class and blue collar voters to win back key states that Trump won in 2016, including Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan. Warren, now in second place in most polls along with Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, has called for structural change in government.
“I’m here with a message for Democrats: the time for small ideas is over,” Warren said Saturday. “When I lead the Democratic Party, we will not be a party that nibbles around the edges. Our Democratic Party will be the party of big, structural change.”
Her promises seem to be resonating. Among registered voters Warren polled at 51% against Trump’s 44% in a hypothetical general election match-up, according to a Sept. 5 ABC News/Washington Post poll, after coming in tied with Trump at 48% in a similar poll in July.
Even as she aligns herself with her competitors when it comes to the urgency of winning back the White House, Warren often says that beating Trump is the floor, not the ceiling, for 2020. Despite concerns about whether her progressive proposals would help or hurt her in a general election match-up, Warren says her policies aren’t ideological.
“This is not about being Democrat or Republican or independent. These issues are bigger than that,” Warren told reporters in Springfield, Massachusetts. “So I see it as: I know what’s broken, I know how to fix it.”
Warren’s campaign approach has some voters and pundits wondering whether she would tack to more moderate proposals if wins the nomination, as candidates on both sides of the aisle typically do for the general election.
“I don’t think she has to do anything in terms of thinking about the ideological divide that might exist in the Democratic Party because it’s going to be so obvious to America who is on their side,” said Massachusetts Representative Lori Trahan, who’s endorsed Warren. “Right now, the boldness of her policies is exactly what’s getting her attention,” Trahan said, adding that “the details are going to be determined by a bunch of factors that we don’t even know yet.”


A Separator functions differently from a Hydrocyclone even though it is a revised form of the latter. They work better in specific applications due to their different functionalities.
It could be helpful to consider their distinctions to choose between using a Hydrocyclone and a Separator inside a sand plant. Then, learn the fundamentals, including how they work and what you are used for, the benefits of employing hydrocyclones, how to choose and build a hydrocyclone, how to choose and install a hydrocyclone, and lastly, how to alter a hydrocyclone’s performance to get the better effect.
A rising gravity separation tool called a hydrocyclone is used to sort slurry particles according to particle weight. For instance, particles that are different in size but have the same particular gravity or particles that are different in size but have various individual gravity. Since cyclones have far higher throughput than alternatives like the conventional filter press, they are frequently employed for dewatering sludge. The hydrocyclone functions based on a conical chamber that creates vortices. Through a vortex finder, the liquid slurry is introduced at the summit of the hydrocyclone’s conical wall, producing tangential flow and a strong vortex. The slurry inside the cyclone swirls in a vortex with great speed.
In the mineral processing sector, hydrocyclones are commonly employed for slurry drying or elevated mean particle separation employing a vortex effect. They are not adversely affected by the alternatives’ percentage steps:
A mineral production plant frequently houses a complete battery of hydrocyclones since they can handle extremely high slurry throughput speeds. However, the high impact wear rate of the hydrocyclone inner surface lining caused by the rapidly moving gritty slurries somewhat offsets the benefit of producing high-quality hydrocyclone. For this reason, fatigue materials, often alumina ceramics, must be used to line the pipelines (inlet and overflowing), vortex detector, cyclones chamber, and outflow spigot (underflow). Additionally, the impingement degree varies inside the hydrocyclone for various regions. However, the wear loss should be equal for practical service reasons. Thus ceramics with better wear resistance may be utilized for high-impingement-angle locations like the top wall between the vortex finder and the flowmeter spigot.
One of aluminum’s most significant volume applications in the mineral processing industries is the refurbishment of hydrocyclones. Due to the high cost of loss of production in a minerals processing plant, which may reach the millions of dollars per day range in extensive facilities, it should ideally be performed as frequently as possible.
More people are aware of and use hydrocyclones, often known as cyclones.
A cyclone operates best under stable input conditions for flow rate and solids. For the Separation to occur predictably and repeatedly, the desired pressure must be maintained at a constant rate.
The input pressure and variations in flow rate are directly related. Smaller particles are sent into the integer overflow by high pressure, whereas larger particles are sent into the overflowing by low pressure.
A Separator can perform virtually as well as a cyclone in some applications, but particle recovery is such an application where a cyclone is recommended.
Over 15 psi is the maximum pressure at which a cyclone may function. When attempting to record as much information as possible, this is crucial. In addition, through increasing angular speeds, the higher pressure will boost the lateral force on all of the particles.
Finer particles will report towards the underflow as smaller particles are spun to the cyclone wall by more vital centrifugal forces.
Underflow changes are a result of variations in the slurry’s total solids. The amount of water that flows into the integer overflow and overflow is determined by the size of the apex.
Having the least quantity of water responding to the underflow is often a secondary objective.
When the right apex is chosen, a cyclone may still remove the bulk of the water even though its underflow won’t have as many solids as a Separator can.
One of these things will occur when the apex is not proportioned adequately to the ratio of particles reporting to the integer overflow and the number of solids is too much for the peak to handle:
When the volume of solids is larger than the apex can manage, roping in the integer overflow occurs. As a result, the air core collapses, and the cyclone division becomes ineffective.
Safeguards may be required, or Separators may be utilized in cases where roping has the potential to affect a downstream operation significantly. The large apex of a Separator dramatically reduces the possibility of roping.
Conversely, more water reports to the integer overflow as the number of solids in the slurry decreases. As water will always transport some fine particles, regardless of the cut, this circumstance will result in more fines entering the underflow.
There is a rise in fines due to the underflow because there is more water.
The input % solids, also known as density, should remain constant primarily to get the maximum performance from a cyclone.
The cyclone should be examined first if the size is a deciding factor. This is particularly true if the underflow can be diluted backward to less than 50% by weight or if it doesn’t need to be strictly regulated.
Desliming before a classification tank, screw fasteners, and refute classifiers (i.e., Hydrosizers) are a few applications that fit within this situation.
A cyclone placed in front of these kinds of applications might reduce the size of the following equipment that is needed. To do this, undesirable fines are eliminated while keeping the appropriate size fraction.
These uses are comparable to reducing the load on a sizing screen by using a scalping screen.
Water was drawn up through into the vortex finder to use a siphon in dividers to separate it from solids.
The upper-pressure limitation for this way of performing the Separation is between 14 and 15 psi.
The Separators are best suited for applications that require a consistent percentage of solids inside the underflow or experience significant changes in the percentage of solids in the feed.
The Separator’s efficiency can withstand variations in feed density from 1% to 25%.
Higher flow meter densities can be attained by doing away with the air core since the solids will accumulate in the area just above the flow path regulator.
To ensure a dry underflow, a Separator should be used. Due to this, a Separator is an excellent choice for material stockpiling without the need for extra machinery.
The word “stackable” is most frequently used to describe the stream from a Separator. The material will pile up even while there is still considerable water in the underflow. This is great when the stockpiling can be left unattended for one or two nights so that extra water can drain out.
A Separator and Dewatering Screen combo can create a “drip-free” product whenever the material can’t be left for a few days.
Drip-free means no water leaks when you compress a handful of sand.
Short of utilizing a filter and a dryer, this Separator and Dewatering Screen combination eliminates the most water from the end product, readying it for bulk storage or transport.
Although a cyclone can be employed in the combination since it is suitable for recovering fines, it will cause a greater wash-through of the material’s fine fraction.
Controlling the percentage of solids in the material is necessary for some technology, including attrition cells, to function at its best.
If the underflow is constantly in the area of 75% to 79% solids by weight, a Separator will remove more moisture than is required.
The optimal moisture range for an attrition cell is between 65% and 75%, but it is typically simpler to add water to assure appropriate operation.
A cyclone can produce an underflow concentration of up to 70% solids by weight, but any changes in the feed will result in inconsistencies in operation.
A hydrocyclone is the best option when the feed volume is constant, and sizing is the critical process criterion. A cyclone will always be preferred for high-pressure demands over 15 psi.
A separator is the best solution when the underflow must contain the least amount of moisture feasible or when the input density will fluctuate significantly.

| LGBTQ travelers and their families are a growing target market for the travel industry, with resorts, cruise lines and many new destinations now offering gay-friendly options.
The travel industry is “capitalizing on new interests and opportunities for people to be themselves all over the place and not just in limited destinations,” says Ed Salvato, an LGBTQ travel expert.
Before the COVID-19 pandemic, many destinations and hotel chains began conducting sensitivity trainings to better serve diverse LGBTQ travelers, beyond what is depicted in stereotypical branding.
“I think companies are starting to think about their duty of care, like, ‘Maybe we better think about specific concerns, fears and needs of these queer guests,’” Salvato says.
Among the friendly spots, he says, are some locations in the Caribbean; Miami and Fort Lauderdale, in Florida; Stockholm; Sydney; Los Angeles; Amsterdam; New York City; and Hawaii.
Puerto Rico, for example, has made LGBTQ inclusivity a core pillar of its Discover Puerto Rico marketing campaign, Salvato says.
Its website illustrates gay couples, highlights locally owned LGBTQ businesses, promotes gay events and conducts LGBTQ sensitivity training for staff at tourist destinations.
Now that COVID-19 restrictions are loosening, many destinations are focused on simply attracting travelers back, Salvato says. Eventually they will return to sensitivity trainings and marketing toward specific segments of the LGBTQ community that they had started before the pandemic.
For families, Salvato recommends R Family Vacations, a travel agency that directs LGBT families to friendly options. Specific locations include:
- Hawaii, where “the aloha spirit is so friendly and welcoming that you can go with your kids.”
- Four Seasons Orlando — near Disney World, which promotes itself to the LGBTQ family market as a friendly resort.
- Provincetown, Massachusetts, a traditional destination for gay travelers, where a family week is now among the summer events offered (July 24 to 31 this year).
“Queer families are just as likely to go where every other family is going. It’s just making sure that queerness will not be an object of ridicule or unnecessary focus,” Salvato says.

Dangling from the ceilings of New Zealand's Waitomo caves are nature's own Christmas lights.
Like thousands of fairy lights, they twinkle like stars, creating a spectacle for tourists.
But there is more than meets the eye.
These stars are actually sticky traps used by glow-worms to capture their prey.
The larva first constructs a tube of mucus.
Then it coughs up dozens of very fine silk strings - about a sixth the width of a human hair, and up to nearly 60cm long - and dangles them from the bottom of the tube.
It then regurgitates mucus onto the silk strings, which collects in tiny droplets that absorb water from the atmosphere and expand. The glue consists mainly of water and the rest is made up of protein, salt and urea - a chemical found in urine.
To attract mayflies, the glow-worm illuminates its net of reflective drops by turning on its bioluminescent tail and shuttling through the mucus tube.
Tourists entering the caves bring about a change in temperature, which results in a drop in humidity. In a study in the journal PLOS One, scientists reported that if humidity drops to below 80 per cent, the droplets will evaporate.
Without these sticky nets, the glow-worms cannot catch mayflies, leaving them to starve and their populations could eventually vanish.
Now, some caves have automatic door systems that prevent anyone going in until the humidity is back to normal.

We departed early in the morning to fly to Puerto Maldonado, the airport/gateway city for the Madre Dios, Manu Rainforest Area. We would be staying at the Manu Wildlife Center. Getting there was definitely part of the experience. Our guide Enrique picked us up. He was excellent throughout. His degree was in zoology from a British university, so his English was excellent. He had lived in the U.S., had a relatively worldly view of things.
We drove for a few hours down the 'new paved road'. This is the new coast to coast highway that the environmentalists are understandably so concerned about. I share and understand the concern. . . but it's not that easy. Don't the people need and deserve a paved road ? (It was the only one.)
Notes of what I see along the way: cattle in the road; every little community had a school, and many had a health clinic; much effort has been put into giving them electricity; many bikes, motorcycles, and variations thereof. There's a gold mine operation with a 'town' of blue tarp dwellings full of migrant workers. I worry about the social impacts. . .the 'girlie bars' and surely sex trafficking, and the devastating environmental impact.
We leave the good road for a lousy one to get to the first river. We boarded the boat on a 2 x 6 plank. I was pleased that the boat was clean, seemed in good condition, and had life preservers. We cross the river, meet a new transport vehicle. The road is dirt/rocks, and gets worse. They do have electricity which enables a small settlement to have a 'video bar' (and ice cream!) The young women wear spike heels on miserable sidewalks. There are more cows, goats and a pig in the road. Laundry is being done in a creek. More than one shanty has a satellite dish. We see farms, lumbering. It's against the law to cut Brazil nut trees. There are offices of the 'Agriculture Ministry'.
We were very fascinated by the atmosphere at these river ports, the economic activity going on. We thought it was reminiscent of what American ferry points must have been like two hundred years ago, with the exception of the boat engines.
We cross a wide mudflat shore to get to the second boat for 4 hrs going up the Madre de Dios River... as the sun sets, which is quite beautiful. We see a capybara and birds. It feels so remote and then we're out there in the dark ! It's a little scary, as the assistant boatman uses a large flashlight as a 'headlight' to see. I have to assume that the driver 'knows the road'. Enrique assures me that the driver lives across the river from the lodge, so that makes me feel better. (I was wondering why the boat departs so late in the afternoon, and could we have scheduled an earlier one? but Enrique says they're all that way.)
Finally we arrive at the Manu Wildlife Center. Julian, the manager, meets us at the boat. I couldn't see the wet rocks, slip and fall, (which was more embarrassing than painful), but quickly overwhelmed by the exotic, candlelight atmosphere of the facility. The dining room was very appealing and welcoming. Dinner was semolina soup, some kind of meat, with excellent mashed potatoes from scratch (as they were the entire trip). Dessert was trying to be lemon meringue pie. Overall it was very pleasant. . . and wonderfully peaceful.
The cottage was just what I wanted it to be. It was very clean, comfortable, and cozy. I had chosen this jungle option because it was remote, while also having hot water and private facilities (saving the camping for later.). We slept well, before the very early wake up, which we would get used to. (4:30 am wake-up is not usually my idea of vacation)

It’s not hard to see from my blog that I am loyal to my favorite color combination, blue and white. I don’t think that I will ever stop loving this color palette! In most every room in my home, blue is my accent color. This same goes for my kitchen and for my tableware – I am just drawn to this color! I share the love of this color with both my mom and my grandmother. They have given me so many beautiful pieces that I cherish!
My hunt for blue and white tableware never ends – I love adding new pieces to my collection! With that, I am sharing some of my favorite pieces below that would make the perfect addition to your summer table. I can’t wait until things go back to normal so that I can have friends and family over to make good use of these pieces!
I found my navy seagrass wrapped glassware in the photos above from Amanda Lindroth. (Several of these pieces are on sale!) Amanda Lindroth is based out of the Bahamas, and it’s easy to see the island influences in all of her pieces. I love bringing this island-inspired glassware into my home!
P.S.: We made the strawberry basil margaritas shown here using Jillian Eversole’s recipe!
Hope everyone has a great week, and thank you for reading!

Hayley Louise Macfarlane, who publishes under the name H.L. Macfarlane, is a prolific author who’s stories branch a host of genres, including fairy tales, apocalyptic science fiction, and paranormal and urban fantasy. In addition to being an author, she’s also a designer and illustrator who makes all of her own book covers (which are gorgeous). Oh yeah, she’s also an actual, real-life doctor of genetics, so it’s safe to say H.L. is a woman of many talents and abilities.
Prince of Foxes, book 1 in the Bright Spear trilogy, is included in the SFWA Fantastic Beasts Bundle. It’s perhaps best described as a gothic Scottish fairy tale and is loosely based on the Celtic fairy tale of Gold-tree and Silver-tree. It’s also based on the area around Loch Lomond, which is where H.L. grew up–and she assures it’s every bit as magical as one would hope. (Having 2 Scottish authors in a row–Tameri Etherton last week and now H.L.–describe the magical, fairy tale like nature of their home country makes me want to visit Scotland!)
The story world H.L. has built in the Bright Spear trilogy is rich and lush, inviting you to dive in and get lost for hours. And it isn’t contained to merely this trilogy. H.L. has a second fairy tale trilogy, Chronicles of Curses, set in the same world. Some of the characters from the Chronicles of Curses trilogy appear in Prince of Foxes, creating the kind of richly interconnected world I know my readers love.
What is Prince of Foxes about?
Sometimes a fox is not a fox, and a man is not what he seems.
When Lachlan, the golden Prince of Faeries, is transformed into a fox and banished from the forest on the eve of his mother’s funeral, the last creature he expects to seek help from is a human.
But Sorcha Darrow is not so easily enchanted by the wily faerie. Only after discovering her father means to marry her to a wealthy Londoner does she decide to help him, seeking the power of a being even Lachlan is wary of: a kelpie. In finding one Sorcha hopes that she may just avoid her own dire fate in the process.
With Sorcha’s dreams being their only true form of communication, Lachlan has to race against time to break his curse and take his place as king before he’s doomed to live as a fox forever.
But someone else is after the throne, and may just use Sorcha’s growing connection to Lachlan to reach it.
Prince of Foxes is available as part of the SFWA Fantastic Beasts bundle. This bundle is available only from May 27, 2020 until June 18, 2020 via Story Bundle. For more information on how this works, please click here. To purchase some or all of the fantastic books in this bundle, please click here.
And make sure you check out all of H.L.’s books, including Lord of Horses and King of Forever (books 2 and 3 in the Bright Spear trilogy) and Big, Bad Mister Wolfe (book 1 in the Chronicles of Curses).

Catholic Key Reporter
KANSAS CITY — Father Gregory Lockwood, pastoral administrator of Christ the King Parish, made a sad and saddening announcement in early April. Christ the King School, for more than 60 years an anchor on the southwest side of Waldo, would close at the end of this school year. There simply weren’t enough students enrolled for the following year to enable the school to remain open.
Christ the King Parish was founded September 1938. When founding pastor Father Thomas J. Connelly took a census of the Catholic families living within the proposed boundaries of the new parish, he found 17. It was a beginning.
Within a few weeks, the parish was moved from the southeastern Waldo area to the southwestern side and it began to grow.
Three years later, in 1941, about 75 families made up the parish roster. That year the church, which had been dedicated just two years earlier, burned to the ground. The property was located outside the city limits at the time and there were no fire fighting facilities. The parish built a new church identical to the former one, which Kansas City diocesan Bishop Edwin V. O’Hara rededicated in December 1943.
During the dedication ceremony, Bishop O’Hara encouraged parishioners to plan for a school. He foretold that, partly because it straddled Wornall Road, the main auto and street car route to downtown, the Waldo area was likely to grow rapidly. The parish took his advice.
In the fall of 1945 the church basement was divided into three classrooms. Christ the King School opened with 46 children enrolled. Southwest of the church, brick by brick, a new, four-classroom school building was rising. By the fall of 1946 the new school was ready for students, teachers and the sounds of learning. The building had cost the parish $68,000.
Within a few short years, Bishop O’Hara’s forecast was proven correct. In 1950 there were 325 families in the parish. Waldo and Christ the King Parish continued to grow.
When Msgr. Vincent Kearney was named pastor of the parish in 1958, there were 2,029 Catholic children in the parish (925 enrolled in the school) and 2,457 adult Catholics. More classrooms and other additions were made to the school to accommodate the growing number of students. By March 1965, a gym and a cafeteria had been added to the school.
Students studied and got involved in sports, playing intramural basketball and volleyball. As time passed, the intramural sports became part of a parochial school league and Christ the King’s student athletes competed against other Catholic schools in the diocese. The school was well regarded academically, spiritually and athletically, throughout the Kansas City Catholic community and beyond.
Then, over the next two decades, the neighborhood began to change. Residents were growing older, and fewer children were born. Young people were relocating to other parts of the city or moving out of it. When Father Bill Bauman became pastor of Christ the King in 1984, he found 2,280 registered parishioners and 385 students in the school.
Father John Weiss was named pastor in 1993. He rapidly initiated several much-needed renovations in the school building, including new restrooms for the gym, the addition of a computer lab in the school basement and the remodeling of the cafeteria to accommodate a hot lunch program.
Father David Holloway became pastor in July 2004. One of the first things on his “to do” list was to air condition the school. He initiated “Cool The Kids,” a successful fund raising campaign later that year. Air conditioning was installed in the school and the electrical service upgraded during the summer of 2005.
In 2007, as interest in Catholic education increased, a study was begun on all the Catholic schools in the Kansas City-St. Joseph Diocese. The Southwest Pod, comprised of St. Elizabeth, Christ the King, St. Peter and St. Thomas More schools, in 2009 formed a task force to develop a strategic plan for sustainability, health and growth. In conjunction with the task force, Father Holloway contracted with Meitler, a Milwaukee marketing firm, to create a marketing and development plan for Christ the King School. The marketing plan they developed focused on increasing enrollment and visibility in south Kansas City, as well as increasing fiscal stability in the school, targeting goals for the coming two years.
Father Greg Lockwood became Parochial Administrator in July 2011. Enrollment had continued to decrease, and by the time he arrived at the parish, 102 students were enrolled in the Kindergarten through 8th grade. A year later 91 students were enrolled.
Enrollment, finances and demographics all contributed to the situation, “a situation that kept me awake nights since January,” Father Lockwood said. “The overall demographics were terrible. Our school system was built to support large families and we don’t have those much any more. In 1950, 975 kids were enrolled in Christ the King School, in 2005, there were 175 students. In 2011 there were 102, and we only had 91 this year.”
He finally came to the conclusion that the school would have to close.
“It’s a fearful thing for a pastor to even have to consider,” he said later. “There are no seminary classes that teach you how to do this. Our families now have to look for other schools for their children, maybe even other jobs to help with costs. Our teachers need to look for other teaching jobs or maybe have to completely change. We also have scouts, servers. This is a total change and a lot of people are suffering as a result. As pastor, all those families are my family, and I love them, mad at me or not!”
Families are now touring neighboring schools. Teachers are networking, looking for new teaching positions or other work. Father Lockwood is concerned about the kids and the teachers, he said. He understands their anger, their disappointment, their sorrow and their worries about the school closing: teachers having to look for jobs that might not be available, parents having to find different schools for their children and the kids who will have to start over again in a new academic and social environment.
“The Christ the King family is hurting, all of us,” he said. “We just have to remember and depend on the fact that Christ is in the middle of this, and he will take care of us.”
In a letter to the parishioners, school families and staff members, Father Lockwood wrote, “For 68 years, Christ the King parish has provided parish school Catholic education to our children, and those from our local community interested in having their children educated in a safe environment where virtue and knowledge have always gone hand-in-hand. This is a heritage to be celebrated and honored, as the hard work of our parents, teachers and staff have made this reality what it is. I meet graduates of our parish school each week out in our town who are proud and grateful that they attended Christ the King.”
He wanted the parish, the school families and the faculty and staff to know that he thought “our school families are great people, our kids are the best, our staff second to none,” all factors, he said, that made the reality of having to close the school “all the harder.”
What is the legacy of a small Catholic grade school, sandwiched between larger schools? “The generosity and thorough decency of the people of Christ the King willed this school to be open year after year, for many years after the neighborhood community expected it to close. This is something to be proud of and to remember,” Father Lockwood said. “The parish with few advantages, always the little sister, made a great contribution to our Church and our community. Our graduates are everywhere in Kansas City and across the country, and our community, city and country are better for it.”
He assured the families and teachers that the parish and the diocesan School Office and Human Resource offices would work with the people of Christ the King School who needed to find other schools or jobs.
He asked the parish and school families to pray for each other and for him, and to remember “the thousands of graduates, great Catholic people and a Church and world better because of them,” because of Christ the King School’s 68-year history.

Lesbians are as diverse as the population at large, crossing all geographic, economic, racial, ethnic, religious, age, and other boundaries. One universal experience facing lesbians is the discrimination and marginalization in our society, which often leads to diminished access to appropriate health care. Lesbians are less likely to seek out health care for any number of reasons, including: fear of medical providers’ homophobia, negative past experiences with health care professionals, lack of need for contraception which causes most women to seek health care, and less access to health insurance due to workplace policies that do not cover unmarried partners. Consequently, many lesbians tend to not seek routine physical examinations including pap smears and mammograms as frequently as heterosexual women.
Lesbians may or may not be at a higher risk for cancers, however, recent studies have shown that less frequent accessing of care means that lesbians are less likely to have existing cancers detected early and thus may have higher rates of cancer mortality. Research on lesbian health, and more specifically this subject, however has only recently been funded.
Lesbians, as all women, should have screening tests appropriate to their age, medical history, and family history in a safe and welcoming environment. These tests may include an annual exam with appropriate blood tests, mammogram, pap smear, colonoscopy, and bone density.
California Pacific Medical Center is sensitive to the needs of all women, encouraging women of all ethnic groups, ages and sexual orientations to seek preventative health care screenings. If you are seeking medical care from a physician who is sensitive to your needs, please call our physician referral line at 888-637-2762 or The Women's Health Resource Center at 415-600-0500.

There are literally thousands of studies and hundreds of books on the topics associated with longevity. Our goal is to guide you to the best information that will have the most significant impact on your life journey. Different researchers and different authors have developed a number of frameworks and paradigms to encapsulate the various dimensions of longevity. We have captured these in 4 primary dimensions:
To get us started on the science we will highlight several books we find to be especially helpful regarding the science of longevity. Since these overlap on the 4 categories, we share them here as a precursor to the deeper dives into each of the 4 dimensions of longevity.

Happiness First is an activity guide to help you find greater happiness in life. Based on decades of proven research in the field of positive psychology, it cuts through all the theory to get to the very best activities you can add to your life to thrive and experience greater happiness. Following the activities will increase your happiness more than doubling your income.
This is a short book that I wrote several years ago. Originally I made it available through Amazon, but have since made it available at not cost. The full book is available here. While this is not the most definitive book on the subject of Longevity, it is very helpful on the “mindset” dimension of longevity.
