Dental caries on population presents a tremendous challenge to the dental profession in population. In the attempt to lower the sugar consumption in population is to exchange the number of sugar sweeteners which manufacture produced for used in foods, drinks and candy with non-sugar sweetener as sorbitol. Sorbitol is effective as non cariogenic substitutes for use in place of glucose. Objective...

Cane and Candy are traceable to two Chinese words both pronounced Kan. One word means Cane or pole when Kan finally became cane in English. The other word Kan means sweet. Then there is the Chinese word Dih which means Drops when Kan-Dih became Candy and means Sweet Drops. Sugar crystals would be like sand in size. Candy of the size of drops. While Misri of small stones, the term Kan-Dih entere...

Factors hypothesized to affect beliefs in fantastical beings were examined by introducing children to a novel fantastical entity, the Candy Witch. Results revealed that among older preschoolers, children who were visited by the Candy Witch exhibited stronger beliefs in the Candy Witch than did those who were not. Among children who were visited, older children had stronger beliefs than did youn...

In this paper we formally verify that the Uniform Candy Distribution Puzzle is self-stabilizing: Given a valid start configuration, eventually the Puzzle will evolve to a ‘stable’ situation in which it will remain. In terms of verification, the Uniform Candy Distribution Puzzle forms a scalable parametrized distributed system: The Puzzle comes in various sizes, for each size of the Puzzle there...

Halitosis (bad breath) is a common condition socially crippling vast parts of the population that results mainly from the malodorous compounds volatile sulfur compounds, by products of oral bacteria. In the present doubled blinded randomized study we have evaluated 75 subjects with halitosis. The participants were treated with or without abrasive microcapsules containing Zinc gluconate 0.5%, pr...

Reversible thermal injury to the esophagus from drinking boiling-hot liquids has been reported to produce alternating pink and white linear bands that impart a "candy-cane" appearance to the inner esophageal wall. This injury has been associated with chest pain, dysphagia, odynophagia, and abdominal pain. We describe a case of candy-cane esophagus caused by thermal injury from smoking freebase ...

We give a new proof that any candy-passing game on a graph G with at least 4|E(G)|−|V (G)| candies stabilizes. Unlike the prior literature on candy-passing games, we use methods from the general theory of chip-firing games which allow us to obtain a polynomial bound on the number of rounds before stabilization.
