Having a confident smile is important at any age, even more so when you grow up in the spotlight and need to be close-up ready at any moment. In search of a picture perfect smile, many young stars are turning to modern new options that straighten their teeth.
Today, treatment can take place with Invisalign - a clear and removable option that allows teeth-straightening to go nearly unnoticed because the braces are virtually invisible. A series of clear aligners move teeth gradually over time. Gone are the days when straightening teeth means you have to wear metal braces and deal with all the challenges associated with them.

Dogs of all sizes, shapes, ages and breeds united today to “Doggupy” New York City’s Union Square Park, turning out for a demonstration to demand nutritious, real, whole food and call for an end to the inferior kibble that they’ve been fed for too long. Camped out in an army of pup tents, they woof-woofed as one, urging canines across America to join the Merrick Pet Care real food revolution — a commitment to only manufacture food that’s locally sourced, high in protein and made in the USA — and help provide “food worthy of a fork” to their fellow dogs in need.

In its 150th anniversary yearlong celebration, Bacardi celebrates its tremendous success as the world’s largest privately-held spirits company and the incredible drive and perseverance it took to get there following the illegal confiscation of its assets in Cuba on October 15, 1960 – 52 years ago. While that event was an extraordinary event in the Company’s history after nearly 100 years of being in Cuba, it became a critical turning point to propel the family-owned Company and its namesake BACARDÍ® rum brand to take on a greater international profile. This turned BACARDÍ into the globally recognized brand it is today. In fact, within 20 years following the loss of the Company’s assets in Cuba, BACARDÍ rum became the number-one premium distilled spirits brand in the United States. Less than a year after that, it was the number-one selling spirit brand in the world.
