Increasingly seen as a health hazard by some scientific and medical bodies, sugar is being viewed by them as the next 'bad boy' food additive that we humans consume (and often crave). Obesity, tooth decay and some forms of diabetes being the suggested result of it's consumption.
Here, sugar cane grows in the sub-tropical climate of Queensland. Later when fully grown it may be set on fire before harvesting so as to kill any suspected plant pests along with the rats & snakes who make it their home.

Today in Spain is "Columbus Day".......a fiesta......when the locals celebrate the discovery of America......god only knows why?
The true story is however different.
My great,great,great,......grandfather Admiral Sunny Drunk was the first man to discover the "new world" not Columbus.
What happened is this........Columbus was working in a sardine factory in Portugal when the "good Admiral" sailed by.....he pleaded with the admiral to give him a lift and being of a kind disposition the Admiral agreed,picked Columbus up and sailed west.
It was this great Englishman who sighted America first....and on the spot named it "The United States of Admiral".(this however didn't sound too good and was later changed by a guy called George Washington).
The ship landed in Florida and in honour of Admiral Sunny Drunk it was called "The Sunshine State".
Columbus moved west to California by Greyhound Bus and later opened up the "Columbus Bakery" in the Sacramento area.
This is the true story of how America was founded.
The Plaque was erected to commemorate Admiral Sunny Drunk's amazing discovery.
It depicts the "good Admiral's ship" parking at Hiawatha's house

A new study suggests that periodontal disease is driven by Th17 immune cells, which are triggered by an unhealthy bacterial community.

Sometimes, one area of research uncovers unexpected findings in another. For example, NIAMS research has shown that certain types of hair keratin also help form dental enamel, the tough outer covering of teeth. Here, finger-like projections (magenta) into a tooth’s top layer represent damage to the enamel of a person with a keratin 75 mutation. By uncovering a role for hair keratins in dental enamel structure, this work may lead to new strategies for combating tooth decay, one of the most prevalent health problems worldwide.

This is the Black Country Living Museum in Dudley, West Midlands.
The museum was established in 1975, and the first buildings moved here in 1976. Since then a 26 acre site has been developed, with the unique conditions of living and working in the Black Country from the mid 19th century to early 20th century.
It is off Tipton Road in Dudley.
This is The Village Centre at the Black Country Living Museum.
It has been built on the low ground at the northern end of the museum site which is surrounded on three sides by canals.
This is T. Cook’s Sweet Shop.
Like the baker’s shop next door, the sweet shop is a replica of one from Birmingham Street, Oldbury.
The exhibit takes the name of Thomas Cook who ran a small confectionary business at 21 Bond Street, Dudley between 1871 and 1901.
As was usual in the Black Country at this time, the business was run on a modest scale, the premises consisting of a small front room shop and a back room preparation area.
The business was a typical family run operation with Mr Cook as confectioner, his son Thomas as assistant confectioner and his son's wife Martha and their two children all helping out.
Martha would probably run the shop, while the two men made sufficient sweets to stock the shop and supply to other retailers.
The British nation is renowned for its very sweet tooth and tooth decay was recognised as a serious health problem just prior to World War I. In those days it was widely believed that sugar was a nourishing food and particularly the working class consumed large quantities.
Mr Cook ran a professional commercial scale business but many Black Country sweets makers worked part-time operating on a humbler scale making simple sweets by boiling up sugar in a saucepan over the grate in the brew ‘us. Their produce helped supplement the family income and was either sold on a market stall or from jars in the front room window of their homes.
The skill of sugar boiling has been revived in Mr Cook’s shop at the Museum where you can experience the tastes, the smells and the shapes of the Black Country ‘suck’ with many old favourites like pear drops, acid drops and troach sweets.
To the left is the Baker's Shop.
The shop which was on Birmingham Road, Oldbury, was Frederick Veal's Bakers.
The baker's shop is a replica of the one which stood in front of the bakery in Birmingham Road, Oldbury.
The original was probably built in about 1840 with the single storey shop front and extension added later in the 1870s.
The period setting of the shop interior is based on a photograph of 1910 when the name of the proprietor George Veal, confectioner, appeared in enamel lettering, known as 'opal letters' on the window along with famous chocolate manufacturers 'Cadburys' and 'Frys'.
The baker not only sold bread and cakes they also sold Johnston's British Wine. Customers sat on a bench behind the screen in the doorway and paid 3d for a glass of wine and a biscuit.
The range of bread and cakes sold in the shop are produced by a local bakery and are similar to those sold in the original shop.
Sadly we are prevented by modern food hygiene regulations from selling bread baked in the bakery’s traditional oven, the Museum’s lucky livestock benefit instead!!

This is one problem that can result if you leave an impacted wisdom tooth in place. Since the second molar is not restorable, you end up losing two teeth instead of one.

October thru January is the busiest time of year for the Rotten Tooth Fairy.
check out www.cartercomics.com/ for more.
It's painting time again! I can never find animals small enough to mount on these tiny plaques and so i figured i could use them for tiny paintings instead. This was my first idea based on a saying that my Grandma always told to me. :) I had a few ideas for little teeth guys in different scenarios. We'll see how far i get with that though before i get sidetracked and start doing something else.. lol
