Day by Day by Chris Muir: Dental Bleg of Venomous Kate
Flap ran across the Dental Bleg over at XRLQ’s place.
Venomous Kate is one of the last people in the blogosphere to bleg, but if you can spare a few $$$ she could really use some help right now.
We all can use help in our lives.
If Kate lives in California perhaps Flap can help her even more.
Kate contact Flap.

The Federalist Society: Super Secret with Decoder Rings
The Los Angeles Times falsely portrays The Federalist Society in this piece, High Court Nominee Sides With Restraint.
In the questionnaire, Roberts took issue with media reports that he was affiliated with the Federalist Society, a somewhat secretive group of conservative lawyers who hold debates and other events designed to promote conservative legal views.
Roberts was listed in 1997 as a member of the Washington lawyers steering committee of the Federalist Society. However, Roberts denied being a member of the organization and said he had “no recollection of serving on that committee or being a member of the society.” He did acknowledge taking part in some society events, specifically moderating a panel in 1993 and speaking to a luncheon meeting in October 2003.
What secret society?
Flap was a member when he was attending law school – twice!
The Federalist Society’s website is here.

Nothing secretive nor sinister here.
No Decoder rings.
But, why does the Los Angeles Times portray it as an off-beat or out of the mainstream conservative club?
Bias anyone!
Patterico has One Step Short of Freemasonry.
Michelle Malkin has DOUBLE SUPER SECRET FEDERALIST SOCIETY.

Dental Anatomy: 3D Images
University of Maryland Dental Student David Loewinger blogs this piece and image from his new dental anatomy textbook and CD.
I just opened up my Dental Anatomy book (Wheeler’s Dental Anatomy, Physiology, and Occlusion) and it I started looking at the CD that comes with it. It has all sorts of 3D pictures including rotatable pictures of teeth and examples of jaw movement. I don’t know how much this will help since presumably we’ll have physical models of teeth to look at too, but for now it looks pretty cool.
Flap agrees a pretty cool image.
Flap wonders does any dental school still require the carving of wax replicas of teeth?

How To: Get Your Teeth Fixed in Mexico
Flap ran across this How To piece about receiving dental treatment in Mexico. Although Flap has met a few Mexican colleagues over the years, he would not recommend this approach.
In the United States, major dental work can be financially ruinous. Without belaboring the lively political topic of why this is, I am here to report that it is possible for a US resident to save 75% or more on major dental work by the simple expedient of having it done in Mexico.
Inside, my story and practical details for others whose dentists may be about to give them a nasty surprise.
The Nasty Surprise for this patient is when this case fails in a few years.
Here is the post-op photo:
