  Teeth Aren’t Just for Smiling -...

  A popular misconception about oral care is that it’s primarily about making teeth look as attractive as possible. Advertisements for tooth whiteners and veneers abound, but the fact is that while appearance is important, there’s a lot more to oral care than just having a mouth full of straight, pearly white teeth. Dr. Brett Langston has spent his career as a prosthodontist – a dentist who specializes in the restoration of oral health and replacement of missing teeth-solving some of the most challenging dental problems. He feels strongly that most people need to understand that oral health affects general health and wants to encourage people to look beyond appearances and learn to take proper care of their teeth and gums. There’s more to it than a quick brush in the morning and evening or choosing a magic toothpaste.In this book, Dr. Langston will share some of his vast knowledge of proper oral care and reveal that by making a few simple lifestyle changes, people can increase their chances of avoiding pain, tooth loss, and embarrassment. He shares amazing, heartwarming, and sometimes funny stories from his decades of working in the field of prosthodontics. Meet a young man who thought he’d never find love because of the state of his teeth, and a woman who was too embarrassed to sing because of her ill-fitting dentures. Dr. Langston not only changed these people’s lives but also taught them how to maintain good oral health for the long haul.Dr. Langston will also introduce some modern solutions to age-old problems and walk you through your many options when it comes to tooth repair, reconstruction, and maintenance. In language understandable to those outside the field of dentistry, he will show you that progress in the world of oral health has very much kept up with modern technology and will amaze you with what is being done in the field. He believes that there are no hopeless cases when it comes to dental reconstruction.“This is all very nice” we hear you say. “But I am afraid of the dentist and that’s why I don’t go.” In the book, Dr. Langston will gently encourage you to put aside your fears and make that dental appointment. Pain management has come a long way in the past several decades, and you don’t have to be afraid anymore. Once you understand the importance of good oral care to your overall health and what your options are, Dr. Langston and dental professionals like him are waiting to put you at ease and take care of you. Armed with the information you’ve learned from this book, you can work closely with your dentist to create a care plan that will improve your life and both your oral and general health.

  Introduction to Power System...

  Dr. Hidaia Mahmood Alassouli

  Power system protection systems have three basic components: Instrument transformers, Relays, Circuit breakers
  
  The function of the CT is to reproduce in its secondary winding a current I' that is proportional to the primary current I. The CT converts primary currents in the kiloamp range to secondary currents in the 0–5 ampere range for convenience of measurement.
  
  The function of the relay is to discriminate between normal operation and fault conditions. The OC relay in Figure 2 has an operating coil, which is connected to the CT secondary winding, and a set of contacts. When |I'| exceeds a specified ''pickup'' value, the operating coil causes the normally open contacts to close. When the relay contacts close, the trip coil of the circuit breaker is energized, which then causes the circuit breaker to open.
  
  System-protection components have the following design criteria:
  • Reliability: Operate dependably when fault conditions occur, even after remaining idle for months or years. Failure to do so may result in costly damages.
  • Selectivity: Avoid unnecessary, false trips.
  • Speed: Operate rapidly to minimize fault duration and equipment damage. Any intentional time delays should be precise.
  • Economy: Provide maximum protection at minimum cost.
  • Simplicity: Minimize protection equipment and circuitry.
  
  Since it is impossible to satisfy all these criteria simultaneously, compromises must be made in system protection.
  
  The book consists from the following sections:
  1. Chapter 1: Power System Faults:
  2. Chapter 2: Instrument Transformers.
  3. Chapter 3: Overcurrent and Earth Fault Protection Relays.
  4. Chapter 4: Radial System Protection.
  5. Chapter 5: Zones of Protection.
  6. Chapter 6: Differential Relays.
  7. Chapter 7: Distance Relays.
  8. Chapter 8: Transformer Protection.
  9. Chapter 9: Generator Protection.
  10. Chapter 10: Busbar Protection.
  11. Chapter 11: Circuit Breakers.
  12. Chapter 12: Fuses.
  13. Chapter 13: References.

  Planting Our World

  It all begins and ends with plants. From the chance to live on this planet to the pleasure of listening to the sound of a violin—every story begins with a plant. 
   
   
   
  We animals account for a paltry 0.3% of the planet's biomass while plants add up to 85%. It is obvious that every story on this planet has a plant as its protagonist. Our world is a green world; Earth is the planet of plants. And when, with just a little training, we are able to look at the world without seeing it solely as humanity's playground, we cannot help but notice the ubiquity of plants. They are everywhere and their stories are inevitably wound up with ours. Not to see this plan, or even worse, to ignore its existence, is one of the most serious threats to the survival of our species. 
   
   
   
  Neurobiologist Stefano Mancuso is back with a book to tell us about the greenprint of our world. He does it through unforgettable stories starring plants; stories combining an inimitable narrative style and remarkable scientific rigor. From the story of the red spruce that gave Stradivarius the wood for his fourteen violins, to the Kauri tree stump, kept alive for decades by the interconnected root system of nearby trees. From the story of the slipperiness of the banana skin to the plant that solved the "crime of the century," the Lindbergh kidnapping, by way of wooden ladder rungs.
