Top Gun Maverick Characters as Animals!

(that either i have personally worked with or people i know have worked with) (with explanations for each choice)

Part 1 with Top Gun (1986) Characters here

Bernie "Hondo" Coleman - Timber Rattlesnake: A very docile species overall, preferring to retreat or hide when faced with a threat. However, when provoked they are capable of delivering a bite with powerful venom (either neurotoxic, hemorrhagic, or a combination of both).

Bradley "Rooster" Bradshaw - Red Fox: Very clever and capable of learning from their experiences, they are also a very playful species that are known to attempt to play with larger animals that could pose a threat to them.

Natasha "Phoenix" Trace - Mongoose Lemur: The females of this species are dominant over the males and they are a relatively peaceful species. They, like most lemurs, are incredibly social and live in groups with small home ranges that often overlap with other groups.

Robert "Bob" Floyd - Meerkat: Cooperative and supportive, they live in large family groups. They appear to be shy, skittish, and quiet, but when they feel safe they are incredibly social and appear to have intricate emotions. (My picture from Frankfurt Zoo in Germany!)

Javy "Coyote" Machado - American Alligator: Incredibly intelligent and capable of learning their name, voices, and commands, they are very misunderstood as being aggressive and dangerous. They are actually very calm and relatively docile animals (my picture from a trip to Florida).

Jake "Hangman" Seresin - Thick-tailed Bushbaby/Greater Galago: While they can be moody and solitary, they are prone to becoming anxious and irritable without consistent interaction with other bushbabies. They also are curious and very intelligent as many primates are.

Reuben "Payback" Fitch - Speckled King Snake: Born resistant to venom, they are one of the few snakes that will prey on venomous snakes including rattlesnakes. However, they are very calm snakes that don't often strike at people.

Mickey "Fanboy" Garcia - American Bison: While they can appear calm and docile, they are very dangerous when provoked. They are very social and thrive in large herds where they are capable of fighting off packs of wolves and other large predators.

Logan "Yale" Lee - Coachwhip: Incredibly fast, these snakes are not aggressive but instead will use their speed to get away from threats moving upwards of 10 mph! Unlike many snakes that rely on venom or constriction for hunting and defense, the coachwhip will hold its prey - or predator - in its mouth and whip their head side to side to tear flesh, and they will use rocks to kill their prey by slamming it into them repeatedly (very cool to watch, not so cool to have happen to your hand <- said from experience).

Brigham "Harvard" Lennox - Takin: Very agile and graceful despite their appearances, these large animals are able to move around their mountainous environment with more ease than almost any others. They are very protective of each other, and are very curious creatures.

Neil "Omaha" Vikander - Antillean Nighthawk: Not much is known about this species, but they are incredibly agile fliers and have been seen flying almost erratically while hunting - including dramatic dives and swoops.

Callie "Halo" Bassett - American Crocodile: The only species of crocodilian known to reproduce through parthenogenesis, making them the largest species known to use that method of reproduction! They are very intelligent and deadly predators that have been known to adapt their strategies if they are unsuccessful in a hunt.

Billy "Fritz" Avalone - Water Deer: A mainly solitary species, and the males are highly territorial. Their large fangs earned them the nickname of "vampire deer" and many people assume they are dangerous or a threat, but they are not carnivorous. Those fangs are instead used for fights with other water deer!

Beau "Cyclone" Simpson - Great White Shark: One of the most intelligent and curious shark species, and one of the most notorious species of the ocean. They are known to use different hunting strategies depending on the prey they are hunting, and they almost always are able to outsmart their prey. However, they are also very peaceful sharks when not hunting, and media commonly misrepresents them as bloodthirsty when they are just trying to survive.

Solomon "Warlock" Bates - Kodiak Bear: Despite being the largest subspecies of brown bears (and the second largest bear alive today with the largest being the polar bear), these bears are among the least aggressive of all brown bears. They will gather in large groups due to the availability of food and have been observed to use "language" and have complex social structures to avoid fights between the usually solitary bears (it's theorized that they even express their feelings to avoid conflict).

hi tumblr, your friendly neighborhood culinary student here! the inaugruation luncheon menu is perhaps the single most politically-charged menu i've ever laid eyes on, and i want to deconstruct it. so without further ado:

a culinary student's analysis of the 2025 Inaugural Luncheon Menu

First course: Chesapeake Crab Cake with tomato tartar[e], bay sauce, pickled vegetables, romanesco, dill, and chive oil

right off the bat, we're presented with a single-option menu, which from an event planning (and thus business, which i'm majoring in) standpoint is already a horrible choice. it's also very indicative of Trump's view on choice. my way or the high way, even if its impossible for you. it's immediately alienating people with a shellfish/seafood allergy. this is going to be a common trend here. (also, note the misspelling of "tartare." tartar is a mayo-based sauce. tartare is a finely chopped vegetable dish, which the tomato element is far more likely to be.)

Second course: Greater Omaha Angus Ribeye Steak with Thumbelina carrots, broccoli rabe, carrot top herb sauce, red wine truffle jus, and potato gratin

this course is the most obvious display of values. we start with the omaha steak. statistically, men (however my professor is defining "men") are more likely to prefer steak to other meats, while women (however my professor is defining "women") are more likely to prefer lighter proteins like chicken or fish. it's very in-line with actions taken against women's rights and reproductive health, like the removal of resources.

similarly, this also declares a support of the beef livestock industry, which is the most negatively-impactful sector of the food and beverage industry on the climate. for years, there's been a push to promote alternative meats or make more plant-forward dishes to reduce the impact of beef farming. this is the exact opposite of that. the meat draws the attention in this menu.

this also excludes anyone who cannot eat red meat, or follow diets that exclude it for health, environmental, or political reasons.

then we move to the jus, which is a sauce made primarily using the juice lost in the pan during the cooking process of a meat, normally beef or veal. in this instance, it's combined with red wine and truffles, both viewed as luxurious foodstuffs by most. the dish radiates the vibe of a classic steakhouse dish. very "i'm so high-class, look at me! i'm protein-heavy and full of fancy things!" a very plain meal under a veneer of costly ingredients and percieved value.

Third course: Minnesota Apple Ice Box Terrine with sour cream ice cream and salted caramel

my immediate question, as someone who grew up in NY, is why they went with Minnesota apples as opposed to NY apples when NY is far more known for the fruit. the answer is quite simple. Trump doesn't like NY. NY voted against him, so they chose another state's apples. (this isn't to say that Minnesota apples are lesser than NY ones at all. it's simply a matter of expectation when NYC is the Big Apple and cideries litter the local landscape.)

and again we see the exclusion of those with dietary restrictions with the sour cream ice cream. good luck to anyone in attendance with a dairy allergy or lactose intolerance.

and lastly, a note on the wines. all four were from the USA. not a French or Italian or just generally foreign one in sight. two of the four were California wines, likely as a nod to his Silicon Valley friends. the other two were Virginia and New Mexico.

the menu overall reinforces what we've already seen: a highlight on the rich, the exclusion of anyone who isn't a cishet white man, and even then alienation of anyone who isn't physically flawless. this is fascism in a menu.

One of the reasons I love Aleksander so much is that, much like the Allied forces during World War II, he found himself in a situation where his choices were dictated by the necessity of survival and the greater good. War is never fought in black and white, and victory rarely belongs to those who refuse to step into moral grayness. The Allies, faced with the monstrous threat of Nazi Germany, had to make devastating decisions that often led to civilian casualties, deception, and destruction, but ultimately resulted in dismantling a regime that threatened the world. Aleksander, in his war against Fjerda, Shu Han, and the Ravkan monarchy itself, walked a similarly ruthless path, where every compromise, every difficult decision, was not made out of cruelty but out of necessity. This is yet another thing his critics like to forget.

One of the most well-known examples of the Allies’ morally complex decisions was the strategic bombing campaign against Germany. The bombing of Dresden in 1945, a city known more for its cultural significance than its military strength, caused enormous civilian casualties. Yet, it was part of a broader strategy to break the Nazi war machine. Similarly, Aleksander’s use of the Fold and its expansion can be seen in the same light—not as an act of senseless destruction, but as a weapon, terrible, yes, but still a weapon against those who sought to eradicate and enslave Grisha. Just as the Allies sought to dismantle the infrastructure and morale of their enemy, Aleksander used the Fold to prove a point, to deter, to protect his people.

The D-Day invasion of Normandy was another instance where the Allies had to weigh terrible losses against long-term victory. The landings on Omaha Beach alone resulted in thousands of Allied casualties, and yet, had they hesitated, had they refused to take the risk, Nazi Germany might have remained unchallenged. Aleksander’s actions reflect the same understanding: standing back, waiting, and hoping for justice would have meant certain death for Grisha. Instead, he took control, knowing that wars are not won through passive and noble ideals but through decisive, often brutal action.

It is crucial to understand that the war Aleksander fought was not one of conquest but of survival. Grisha were hunted, experimented on, treated as subhuman by their enemies and had no safe refuge. Just as the Allies had to forge alliances, sometimes with deeply flawed leaders, Aleksander also had to make difficult choices to secure his people’s survival. His war was not about morality in the conventional sense but about ensuring a future for those who had none.

It is easy to judge him from a distance, to believe that war should be fought with honor, fairness, and strict moral codes. But history has shown time and again that such wars are lost before they even begin. Aleksander, like the Allies, had no luxury of purity. He was forced to fight fire with fire, knowing that to do anything less would mean condemning his people. His actions, like theirs, did not stem from cruelty, but from the understanding that sometimes, to stop a greater darkness, one must be willing to walk through the shadows. That is why I stand by him.

Pour one out for the tragedy of Bobby and Rufus.

Rufus, who saved Bobby's life, taught him what's out there and how to hunt, and they were partners, until Omaha and Bobby did something Rufus says he'll never forgive Bobby for, and Rufus dies with Bobby unforgiven. They loved each other, still, and they're like family--showing up for each other even if Rufus can never forgive Bobby for Omaha.

In the same episode that underscores again that Samuel Campbell didn't earn being family.

It's right there in the text, expressly, from Dean's mouth how this works, "Just 'cause you're blood, doesn't make you family. You gotta earn that."

And at the end of the ep, Dean, looking at the tragedy of Bobby and Rufus, hands out blanket forgiveness, because "at the end of the day, you two were family." Because they earned that.

Bobby and Rufus are parallels for two relationships--they're Sam and Dean, who have fought and forgiven each other, because they've earned it, they live up to their brotherhood, and they're also Dean and Cas. Including where Bobby and Rufus's brotherhood is formed by brothers-in-arms, not blood brothers from infancy. They are as much about Dean and Cas as they are a mirror on Sam and Dean, and are more the type of relationship Dean and Cas have than Sam and Dean.

"I was just a job...this guy comes busting in...sends that demon straight to hell...Taught me a thing or two about what's really out there"

The ***foreshadowing*** and the forgiveness!!!!

The family don't end with blood!!!

The unbreakable bond even if someone screws up, because they've earned forgiveness, they've shown their goodness and their love and even if they do something spectacularly stupid, the good is greater than the failing.

Margo worked her absolute heart out for me (and some liver loaf) today and earned an Award of Merit at the Borzoi Club of Greater Omaha’s speciality!!! She continues exceeding my every expectation and I am so proud of how far we’ve come as a team.

[taraross-1787]

Hi, everyone -- I had a new “this day in history” story written for this morning. It was about something that happened during the Civil War. It feels wrong to post that story, though, given the events of the weekend. I don’t want to tell a story about a time when we were divided. Instead, count me among those who are joining the call for unity today. With that in mind, I’ve pulled a quote from Ronald Reagan’s farewell address in January 1989. It’s reprinted below.

It's long past time that we remember who we are. God Bless America!

-------------

“[A]re we doing a good enough job teaching our children what America is and what she represents in the long history of the world? Those of us who are over 35 or so years of age grew up in a different America. We were taught, very directly, what it means to be an American. And we absorbed, almost in the air, a love of country and an appreciation of its institutions. If you didn’t get these things from your family you got them from the neighborhood, from the father down the street who fought in Korea or the family who lost someone at Anzio. Or you could get a sense of patriotism from school. And if all else failed you could get a sense of patriotism from the popular culture. . . .

. . . . we’ve got to teach history based not on what’s in fashion but what’s important -- why the Pilgrims came here, who Jimmy Doolittle was, and what those 30 seconds over Tokyo meant. You know, 4 years ago on the 40th anniversary of D-day, I read a letter from a young woman writing to her late father, who’d fought on Omaha Beach. Her name was Lisa Zanatta Henn, and she said, “we will always remember, we will never forget what the boys of Normandy did.” Well, let’s help her keep her word. If we forget what we did, we won’t know who we are. I’m warning of an eradication of the American memory that could result, ultimately, in an erosion of the American spirit. Let's start with some basics: more attention to American history and a greater emphasis on civic ritual.

And let me offer lesson number one about America: All great change in America begins at the dinner table. So, tomorrow night in the kitchen I hope the talking begins. And children, if your parents haven’t been teaching you what it means to be an American, let ‘em know and nail ‘em on it. That would be a very American thing to do.

. . . .

I’ve spoken of the shining city all my political life, but I don’t know if I ever quite communicated what I saw when I said it. But in my mind it was a tall, proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, wind-swept, God-blessed, and teeming with people of all kinds living in harmony and peace; a city with free ports that hummed with commerce and creativity. And if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors and the doors were open to anyone with the will and the heart to get here. That’s how I saw it, and see it still.”

[jeannereames]

Dr. Reames! I read where you promised you wouldn't put up a Tumblr paywall and haven't created a Patreon either, because your school pays your salary so you can answer asks here for free.

That's cool, and super generous. Seriously. I've learned so much. The level of detail in your posts I wouldn't expect outside a university class or buying a book. So if, yeah, you get paid by them, is there a way your followers here who aren't your students... but kinda ARE ...support what you're doing? Other than buying the novels (which is actually how I found you to begin with).

Also, do you have any online classes on Alexander like those "Great Courses"? I'd love to take an online course with you if you have lectures.

Thank you!

I’m delighted people read these things! Ha. Some are rather long. But sometimes the answer is complex. (I should make a couple polls; I’m curious how much/many of these people do read.)

Anyway, to answer the questions:

No, I don’t have any online ATG class at present. I am working on putting up Alexander the Great and the Macedonian Origin (e.g., from early Macedonia/Alexander I to ATG). But you’d need to be enrolled with UNO to take it. It’s still a couple years out, at least.

As for other ways to help.

First, buy the books. (The asker said they already have.) Ironically, I get greater royalties from ebooks than paper. Sometimes people buy paper thinking it helps me more. I prefer paper books myself, so certainly buy paper if you also prefer them, but don’t pay the higher price for paper just because you think that benefits me.

TALK ABOUT THE BOOKS … on both Tumblr and TikTok (+ Bluesky and Twitter). I understand Song of Achilles had only a minor following until it blew up on BookTok. So, if you have a TikTok and really liked the books, talk about them and tag it #booktok & #historicalfiction (et al.). There have been a couple BookToks done in Italian, but I’ve not seen any in English. Doing one would be fantastic. On Tumblr, people have mentioned it and shared lines from it in the past, and some folks have found it that way. Word of mouth works. The recent Alexander Netflix series has brought new people looking for fiction (and queer-positive fiction) about him.

Rate (and review?) the novels on Goodreads and/or Amazon (or elsewhere), especially if you liked them enough to give them 5-stars. But of course, be true to your honest opinion. If there’s a fair bit of skepticism about the value of Goodreads/ Amazon ratings in the publishing industry, agents and publishers still (perhaps hypocritically) pay attention to them.

Last, and not book related, but if you read and enjoy my posts here on Tumblr, and feel you’ve learned something from me, keep in mind that it’s the University of Nebraska-Omaha History Department that’s making this possible by paying my salary. 😊

What are the advantages of settling an issue before it goes to trial?

When faced with a legal dispute, many people in Omaha wonder whether to settle the matter out of court or proceed to trial. Understanding the advantages of pre-trial settlements can help in making an informed decision that saves time, reduces costs, and provides greater control over the outcome.

Understanding Pre-Trial Settlements

A pre-trial settlement occurs when disputing parties reach an agreement before the case is presented in court. This approach often involves negotiation and compromise, leading to a mutually acceptable resolution without the need for a judge or jury's intervention.

Advantages of Settling Before Trial

Time Efficiency

Faster Resolution: Due to complex legal procedures and court schedules, trials can extend over months or even years. Settling beforehand allows for a quicker conclusion, enabling all parties to move forward without prolonged uncertainty. 

Cost Savings

Reduced Legal Expenses: Litigation involves significant costs, including attorney fees, court charges, and expenses for expert witnesses. Opting for a settlement can substantially lower these expenditures. 

Predictability and Control

Certainty of Outcome: In a settlement, both parties have the opportunity to negotiate terms that are agreeable, eliminating the unpredictability associated with a trial verdict. 

Customized Agreements: Settlements allow for tailored solutions that address the specific needs and interests of both parties, which might not be achievable through a court ruling.

Confidentiality

Privacy Protection: Court trials are public, potentially exposing sensitive information. Settlements can include confidentiality clauses, ensuring that details remain private. 

Reduced Stress

Emotional Relief: The adversarial nature of trials can be stressful and emotionally taxing. Settling out of court often provides a less confrontational means of resolving the dispute, reducing personal strain. 

Preservation of Relationships

Amicable Resolution: In situations where parties have an ongoing relationship, such as business partners or neighbors, a settlement can help maintain a cordial relationship by avoiding the adversarial nature of a trial. 

Considerations Before Settling

While settlements offer numerous benefits, it's essential to consider certain factors:

Adequate Compensation: Ensure that the settlement amount fairly compensates for any damages or losses incurred. Accepting a settlement might result in receiving less than what could potentially be awarded in a trial. 

Finality: Once a settlement is agreed upon, any further legal action on the matte is typically precluded. It's crucial to be fully satisfied with the terms before agreeing.

Legal Advice: Consulting with a qualified attorney can provide valuable insights into whether a settlement is in your best interest, considering the specifics of your case.

Conclusion

Settling a legal dispute before it goes to trial offers several advantages, including time and cost savings, greater control over the outcome, and reduced stress. However, it's important to carefully evaluate the terms and seek professional legal advice to ensure that the settlement aligns with your best interests. By understanding these benefits and considerations, people in Omaha can make informed decisions when navigating legal disputes.

Meet Stress Test Editors John K. Roth and Carol Rittner!

John K. Roth

The Edward J. Sexton Professor of Philosophy Emeritus at Claremont McKenna College, where he taught for more than forty years and was the founding director of the Center for the Study of the Holocaust, Genocide, and Human Rights (now the Mgrublian Center for Human Rights). He is a Protestant Christian with Presbyterian and Methodist ties. Long friendships with Elie Wiesel and Richard Rubenstein, Eva Fleischner, and Franklin Littell impressed on Roth how deeply the Christian tradition has been implicated in antisemitism and the Holocaust.

In books such as The Failures of Ethics (2015), Sources of Holocaust Insight (2020), and Warnings: The Holocaust, Ukraine, and Endangered American Democracy (2023), Roth looks for ways in which Christians and Jews can work together to resist anti-democratic authoritarianism and to defend human rights. Against long odds, he remains hopeful that a two-state resolution, which he has long supported, can be found for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the Hamas-Israel War

Carol Rittner R.S.M.

Dr. Rittner is the author, editor or co-editor of numerous essays and books about the Holocaust and Christian-Jewish relations, including Memory Offended: The Auschwitz Convent Controversy (Westport, CT: Praeger, 1991); What’s the “Good News” After Auschwitz? (Macon, GA: Mercer University Press, 2001), Pius XII and the Holocaust (London and New York: University of Leicester Press/Continuum Publishers, 2002); No Going Back:Letters to Pope Benedict XVI on the Holocaust, Christian-Jewish Relations and the State of Israel (Laxton, UK: Quill Press, 2009); The Holocaust and Nostra Aetate: Toward A Greater Understanding (Greensburg, PA: Seton Hill University Press, 2017); and The Holocaust and the Christian World, 2nd ed. (Mahwah, NJ: A Stimulus Book, Paulist Press, 2019). She is the co-editor, with John K. Roth, of the forthcoming book Stress Test: The Hamas-Israel War and Christian-Jewish Relations (iPub Global, 2025).

Her international engagement further demonstrates Dr. Rittner’s commitment to fostering interfaith understanding and peace. Between 1985 and 2010, she led numerous groups of Christians to Israel, facilitating meetings with Israeli Jews, Muslims, Druse, and Christians. These visits also included interactions with Palestinians in Bethlehem, providing a platform for learning about and discussing the ongoing obstacles and possibilities for peace in the region.

She is the recipient of four Honorary Doctorates from Misericordia University, Dallas, PA (1990), King’s College, Wilkes Barre, PA (1999), Monmouth University, West Long Branch, NJ (2002), and The College of St. Mary, Omaha, NB (2011). In 2022, the National Catholic Center for Holocaust Education at Seton Hill University, Greensburg, PA, honored Dr. Rittner with the Nostra Aetate Award, which “acknowledges distinguished work in the field of Jewish-Catholic relations and, in particular, recognizes scholarship that enhanced interfaith understanding.”

In Remembrance of Better Men

A few years ago I entered this photo in a photo contest and was surprised to win 2nd place in the judge's selection. He wrote:

From a photography standpoint I was pleased with his remarks, but the image represents something much deeper.

The Battlefield Cross memorial is erected on a field of battle for a fallen soldier which includes his rifle, his helmet, and his boots.

Standing there in the visitor's center of the Normandy American Cemetery I was struck silent by the enormous lump in my throat...something that followed me throughout the entire visit of the cemetery.

The Normandy American Cemetery overlooks beautiful Omaha Beach in Normandy, France, and is the final resting place for 9389 dead American soldiers, mostly from the D-Day invasion of June 6, 1944.

"THIS EMBATTLED SHORE, PORTAL OF FREEDOM, IS FOREVER HALLOWED BY THE IDEALS, THE VALOR AND THE SACRIFICES OF OUR FELLOW COUNTRYMEN".

9389 dead. 1557 names inscribed on the Wall of the Missing. They were Americans of every race, every heritage, every color, every religion, political persuasion, and even 4 women. They were from every state in the nation: north, south, east and west; all UNITED as AMERICANS to fight the spread of evil fascist regimes.

So, listen up you American TRAITORS, Nazi-aggrandizing FOOLS:

Here lies your COUNTRYMEN, your ancestors, your BETTERS, who willingly sacrificed their young lives to fight for something greater than themselves.

Here lies your BETTERS who lie an ocean away from home for all eternity. Here lies your BETTERS who watered the land of foreign countries with their AMERICAN BLOOD for the idea of FREEDOM and DEMOCRATIC VALUES. Here lies your BETTERS cut down in life before they ever had a chance to live.

Here lies your BETTERS who willingly lit the fuse for the Arsenal of DEMOCRACY to become the TORCHBEARERS OF FREEDOM for the world and future generations.

WE ARE THE KEEPERS OF THE FLAME.

Never in my 61 years have I ever been more ashamed, infuriated and horrified at the UNAMERICAN ABOMINATION and his ilk occupying the Oval Office today. He is the weakest of men who NEVER sacrificed ANYTHING for the greater good, who has in fact, DOUSED the torch of his BETTERS to align a once-great nation with authoritarian regimes and tiny dictators around the world who are as weak and evil as he is.

Well, I haven't forgotten what it means to be an AMERICAN. Until I draw my last breath I will hold FREEDOM and DEMOCRACY as the greatest gifts I have been given. I will stand with countries that fight for DEMOCRACY. I will remember the sacrifices of our BETTERS, and I vow to keep the torch lit, even if it's a candle in the window.

Dentistry as a Profession There was a time when the profession of dentistry solely focused on treating and alleviating pain coming from any oral tissues. The dentists were considered as healers just like medical doctors. But a recent trend towards broadening the horizons of dentistry has lead it to step into the fields of cosmetic medicine. Focus has been provided on dentists as smile constructors. Dental clinics have been transformed into dental spas and there is a movement leading the profession of dentistry into a business. How much of this is useful is yet to be determined. And whether this new picture of the "business" of dentistry is ethical or not has brought dentistry into the spotlight of professionalism. Ethicists are generating heated arguments and commenting on the status of dentistry towards still being called a profession. What truly constitutes a profession and what are the attributes of dental profession and how are they changing is the topic of discussion of this article. Jose Welie a renowned professor belonging to the Center for Health Policy and Ethics, Creighton University Medical Center, Omaha, Nebraska, has presented detailed view of dentistry as related to it being a profession in this modern era. The concepts discussed by professor Welie span along a 3 part series that starts from discussing the true essence of profession itself, its definition, its constituents, profession in the light of the existential theory and present state of the professional infra structure as applied to this existential definition of the dental profession provided by him. Jose Welie defines a profession as "a collective of expert service providers who have jointly and publicly committed to always give priority to the existential needs and interests of the public they serve above their own and who in turn are trusted by the public to do so." (Welie, 2004a).

Like for example straightening an individual's crooked teeth by orthodontics. It not just improves a person's outlook and confidence but at the same time relieving a crowding of the dentition allows correction of various occlusion problems, periodontal disease problems and renders the teeth, less vulnerable to dental decay.
