Gum disease is serious business. Its symptoms are usually subtle that you don’t even realize the damage that is being done literally right under your nose. Rather than feeling outright pain, you may experience gnawing, itching, or burning sensation. You may notice a little bleeding when you brush or floss your teeth. It may be annoying , but it certainly doesn’t seem like anything to worry about. The during a routine checkup, your dental hygienist informs you that your gums have receded so much that one of your teeth has become wobbly. Here are some tips that you can consider to adopt to restore your gum health by Dr. Medhat Dawoud

1. Stop SmokingIf the threat of lung cancer and heart disease has not persuaded you to can the cigs, then sore gums probably won’t do the trick either. Just know that smoking not on;y aggravates gum disease, it can cause it in the first place. There is such a thing as nicotine stomatitis. It is an inflammation of the soft tissue of the mouth that comes from nicotine irritation. Dr. Medhat Dawoud

2. Avoid Aspirin

Your friends mean well when they tell you to put aspirin on your sore gums. But don’t listen to this old wives’ tale. Never put aspirin directly on your gums. Yes, it might provide some temporary relief. But aspirin is a highly caustic chemical, and it is irritating to the gum tissue. It could cause a fairly serious acid burn. Dr. Medhat Dawoud

3. Be Gentle

While keeping your mouth cleanis critical, you will want to proceed gingerly when you have sore gums. Patients with gum problems tend to get more vigorous with their brushing. They think that they can brush the problem away. But they often end up inadvertently causing abrasions and ulcerations. Avoid aggressive brushing. Make sure that you use a soft toothbrush. Plaque is a soft material and can be removed better with a soft brush than a hard one. Dr. Medhat Dawoud

4. Try tea bag

If your gums are bleeding, tea can make it stop. Just place a wet tea bag on the area that is bleeding. The tannic acid will help the blood clot. Dr. Medhat Dawoud

5. Give Up Brushing Temporarily

If your gum tissue appears red or raw, it is recommended to forgo brushing that area for the time being so that it has a chance to heal. Brushing will irritate the gum even more. Instead of brushing, dip a cotton swap in 3 percent hydrogen peroxide and dab the sore spot. Hydrogen peroxide is a cleansing agent. If you use it for five to seven days, it will help clean the area and allow the gum to heal without toothbrush abrasion. You can brush the biting surface of the back teeth directly. Just make sure that the brush doesn’t touch the gum line. Dr. Medhat Dawoud

6. Try Rinse

It is recommended to use a rinse with anti-plaque properties. It helps to reduce the amount of plaque mass in your mouth at any one time. Your best bet is a rinse that contains chlorhexidine. Since such products are only available by prescription, you should ask your dentist whether one would be right for you. Some over-the-counter rinses such as Listerine has been shown to be effective in preventing plaque buildup, but they don’t work as well as those with chlorhexidine. Dr. Medhat Dawoud

7. Consume Carefully

If you have a sore or an ulcer on your gums, avoid eating anything that can irritate the tissue. Stay away from spicy and acidic foods and drinks. This includes tomato juice and even colas. They have pHs in the range of five, which is acidic. What about orange juice? Make sure you dilute it with water. This reduces the acidic concentration, so the juice won’t burn when you drink it. Dr. Medhat Dawoud

Dr. Medhat Dawoud has unsurpassed chair side manner. He will put you at ease while explaining any course of treatment he feels may be needed to ensure quality dental health care. He will speak to your about your dental concerns and will come up with a suitable treatment for you.

Edwin Ogenio talks about marriage and divorce

  Edwin Ogenio

“Since they are no longer two but one, let no one separate them, for God has joined them together.” Matthew 19:6 NLT

With the emphasis on “for God has joined them together”, Edwin Ogenio believes that what God puts together in a covenant between Him and the man and woman, no one is able to separate. God wants to shed his light on many of the misunderstandings when it comes to marriage and divorce, especially among Christians. We all seem to know somebody who is divorcing, and it seems like a shock every time. The couple next door with school age children, the elder at the church and his wife, the sports athlete and devoted wife with children, the movie star, your son, your daughter, the wonderful pastor down the road…and the list goes on.

Edwin Ogenio:

The purpose of marriage is to reflect the love relationship between Christ and the Church and to effectively accomplish God’s plan for that particular marriage on this earth, for as the Bible says, there will be no marriage in Heaven. (See Luke 20:34-35)

Edwin Ogenio said:”And further, you will submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. You wives will submit to your husbands as you do to the Lord. For a husband is the head of his wife as Christ is the head of his body, the church; he gave his life to be her Savior. As the church submits to Christ, so you wives must submit to your husbands in everything.”

And you husbands must love your wives with the same love Christ showed the church. He gave up his life for her to make her holy and clean, washed by baptism and God’s word. He did this to present her to himself as a glorious church without a spot or wrinkle or any other blemish. Instead, she will be holy and without fault. In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as they love their own bodies. For a man is actually loving himself when he loves his wife. No one hates his own body but lovingly cares for it, just as Christ cares for his body, which is the church. And we are his body.

As the Scriptures say, “A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.” This is a great mystery, but it is an illustration of the way Christ and the church are one. So again I say, each man must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.” Matthew 19:6 NLT

“We desperately need God’s help!” - says Edwin Ogenio.

Frank Scozzaro - Employee Volunteer Programs are Great for Business

Filed under: Frank Scozzaro — Wrote by admin on Saturday, November 10th, 2007 @ 12:45 pm

Frank Scozzaro

Volunteerism is a great way for any size company to give back. Whether you are a solo entrepreneur or a large corporation, an employee volunteer program is a must for several reasons. The most important reason is it gives employees a stake in the company’s giving and it can even improve employee morale.

An employee volunteer program doesn’t have to be complex and time consuming. But, it should be leveraged against other assets for giving, which determines how you build this program. The employee volunteer program needs to also have the systems in place for it to be successful and effective. If you are thinking about establishing a company-wide employee volunteer program or if you are a solo entrepreneur and want to include time as a way to give back, here are 5 easy steps to create and employee volunteer program - Frank Scozzaro.

1. Align volunteer activities with the company giving mission. Volunteering should not be done on the fly or without consideration. Creating a branded giving program that sends out your message about what you care about is important. Take the time to select volunteer activities that closely align with your giving mission statement. Choosing activities that align with your giving mission generate the greatest benefits for the company, employees and the community.By Frank Scozzaro.

2. Develop a volunteer program structure and policies. Written and communicated policies around volunteering keep the program focused and easy to manage. It lays the groundwork for what the company will do and how it will do it and when recognizing employees for the volunteer time, it keeps the process fair.

3. Leverage volunteer activities against other assets the company has to give. You need to know how much time you can afford to give back. Time is weighed against in-kind donations, cash contributions (including matching gift programs) and loaned expertise.

4. Communicate your volunteer efforts. Communicating your giving program generates enthusiasm within the company and good will within the community. The results and efforts of your volunteerism are linked to public relation and marketing efforts both internally and externally.

5. Reward engaged employees. Nothing speaks louder to employees than appreciation for what they do. Establishing a recognition program inspires others and is a great way to say ‘thank you’ for their contribution to the overall company giving program.

6. Measure and evaluate. You don’t know how successful your volunteer program is unless you take the time to evaluate it. Yes, volunteering is all good, but you this is the only way true success can be determined. Some of the areas to measure are employee satisfaction with the program and is it meeting your overall mission.

Mary Aljian - Why incorporate a business

Filed under: Mary Aljian — Wrote by admin on Saturday, November 10th, 2007 @ 11:48 am

Mary Aljian

If you are a business owner, you probably have questions about incorporating small business. Most often business owners ask why incorporate. Many people run their small businesses as sole proprietorships for many years without considering the benefits incurred from taking the steps to incorporate business. However, as tax time comes round, you might be dismayed to see how much of your business income goes to pay taxes for a sole proprietorship. This is when many small business owners begin to consider if incorporation is right for their business.

One big reason why businesses decide to incorporate is that in the United States business law favors corporate interests, giving them rights, privileges and protections that are often no longer available to individuals. This goes back to an early Supreme Court case that had an amendment added to it by a law clerk. The case was Santa Clara Co. vs. Southern Pacific Railroad, and the law clerk essentially wrote his own words into the judge’s opinion. The wording he added caused corporations to be considered as natural human beings, and gave them the same rights as humans under the 14th Amendment of the Constitution. This classification has been the entry point for some large businesses to influenced lawmakers to favor legislation that helped them to grow in power and size.

When it comes to incorporating, small business owners know that this legal process allows them to take on some risk without the danger of losing all of their possessions should the business fold. There are benefits that come with all types of incorporation, but they vary depending upon how your business structure is set up.

Many businesses begin as sole proprietorships. This usually means you are doing business under your own name, although you can do business under a fictitious name, the name of your business, as well. A sole proprietorship is not a corporation, and the benefit of this is that you will pay not corporate taxes, but instead you pay taxes on the profits of the business. The bookkeeping involved in a sole proprietorship is usually less complex than might normally be expected for a corporation. Your business profits go directly to the business owner in this model. This business structure is easily formed and dissolved legally, and you have the most control over your business decisions, because you have no one else to answer to - Mary Aljian.

When it comes time to incorporate, business owners usually do so in order to lower the amount of tax they must pay. As a sole proprietor, you may have to pay both the federal tax rate and a self-employment tax, which is in effect double taxation. Many business owners want to learn how to incorporate business structures because they also want limited liability. Sole proprietors can face unlimited liability if their business is sued, and it puts their personal assets at risk.

When considering incorporating, small business owners can select from the LLC, C-corporation, S-corporation, and even non-profit status. When you want to incorporate, business owners should look into each of these formats to see which is right for them.

Transition America - interviews

TRANSITION AMERICA:Not getting any interviews?
Transition America:”You have great experience and an amazing work ethic and you’re even willing to be negotiable on salary. But after sending your resume to countless, perfectly matched job opportunities, you’re just not getting any interviews.”

Transition America asks :”Why?” It may be hard to believe, but there’s a good chance it may be your resume. With the average employer spending less than 30 seconds scanning the resumes they receive, your resume needs to ‘be the ticket’ to grab attention and get the interview, according to the Nation’s Career Search Specialists, Transition America.

According to Transition America, to stand out from the others you not only need a good looking, professional resume , but also one that instantly establishes your credibility and conveys that you’d get the job done. The goal of the resume is to showcase your most marketable skills. According to Transition America, “not only does your resume need to be professional, but it needs to create value. A powerful resume will reflect your transferable skill set and be a reflection on how you will impact the new employer.”

TRANSITION AMERICA:The Wrong Resume Can Cost you Thousands

The average job search lasts 18 weeks, according to data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. So if a job seeker earns $60,000 a year, 18 weeks between jobs add up to a stunning $20,769 in lost income. “Additionally, if you’re fortunate enough to land a job, your resume may have cost you dearly in your salary offer or negotiation,”-said Transition America. In a recent survey of employers, after being presented with both self-made and professional resumes of candidates with identical backgrounds, the employers estimated they’d most likely pay between $2000 to $5000 more for the candidates with the professionally written resumes.

According to Transition America, when preparing for an interview, you wouldn’t think twice about investing in a quality business suit. Clearly, a similar investment in a professionally written resume now could generate a far greater return. The cost of a professional resume writer may be equal to about 1 day’s pay, which is minimal when compared to a better paying job or a paycheck that comes several months earlier
